Seriously? Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Maybe I am suddenly stupid, but I fail to understand how to select a link, then go up and click an icon on my toolbar. I was expecting a contextual menu.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (6.7.2).
YouTube mp3
Obviously some difficulty. Rated 1 out of 5 stars
There has been "some maintenance going on," preventing us from making use of the service for weeks. It would be nice if you could be honest with us about what's going on.
Web Paint
Inadequate instructions Rated 3 out of 5 stars
I previously reported that Web Paint did not honor my color selection, and I finally got a response from the developer, asking if I had closed the color picker before drawing.
Well, no, I hadn't, and I see no reason why I would have thought of doing that. I can say unequivocally that no other application I have ever used requires that. I should also mention that Web Paint's "instructions" do not indicate anything of the sort being necessary. All that's said is "select a color for the text and line."
So, again, liangzhou2276, why would I have thought of that? You still do not get top ratings, except this time it's for inadequate documentation. I also take points off for being unable to communicate with you except through writing reviews.
Web Paint
No response Rated 1 out of 5 stars
I previously reported to the developer that Web Paint does not honor my color selection for text, lines and shapes (OSX 10.11.1, Firefox 41.0.2). I never received any response or action.
While I do like the way it works, it does not do what it is supposed to do, and this is not the kind of support I want from developers. Removing in favor of Nimbus Screenshot.
Web Paint
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Nice, useful, but lacking.
They tell us not to post bug reports, but don't require the developer to provide a means of doing that, so here goes:
Rectangle tool does not honor color selection (the other shapes do). At least on my Mac (OSX 10.10.5, FF 40.0.3).
Keeping the selected color instead of defaulting to black would be nice, too.
Fix that, and I can get rid of the other markup add-ons.
You'll note I brought this up in a previous review (5 months ago), but nothing has been done yet.
Web Paint
A for effort, but... Rated 3 out of 5 stars
...on my Mac (OSX 1.10.3) running Firefox 37.0.1, the color picker doesn't work for all shapes. It displays the color I selected, but draws everything black.
I'll stick with Nimbus Screenshot for the time being, but please do advise if you fix this.
Nice trick, but hardly useful... Rated 5 out of 5 stars
...if I can't readily save the code image I've just created. Unless I'm missing something obvious, I have to take a screen shot to make any use of it (such as to use it in a website or in print). Yes, I have tools with which to do that, but I shouldn't have to use them.
So, yes, I was missing something, but not all that obvious. In light of the developer's response, I will up my review to 5 stars.
Never even got the chance to use it Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Wiped out the contents of my Additional Toolbar (it left the toolbar visible, but there was nothing in it. Repeatedly). It also trashed Nimbus Screenshot, meaning that while Nimbus was still listed in my add-ons, its button (which was also in the Additional Toolbar) was just gone, nowhere to be found. I hate to affect your ratings with one star, but there's no "N/A" rating available. Talk to Mozilla about that.
Date Picker/Calendar
This is what always happens Rated 4 out of 5 stars
I make a comment about what I would like, then find out I can already do it. I just discovered that I can move status bar tools to an upper toolbar. So all I'm left wanting is for the calendar to stay where I put it.This user has a previous review of this add-on.
Date Picker/Calendar
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Pretty much what I was looking for, except that I would prefer a button in my toolbar instead of having to mouse down to the status bar, and I would also prefer the calendar to remember where I put it, instead of always popping up in the middle of the screen.
Multicolumn Bookmarks
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Does not work for me at all in OSX 10.9.2 --> Firefox 29.0.1
Folder Filters Button
Almost exactly what I wanted Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Very nice, manual filters are finally convenient (why this isn't native to TBird is a major mystery). I have a sparse toolbar, but my core belief is that there should be a button available for EVERY menu command, even if nobody would use all of them. With this, half of what I have needed is achieved. Now, how about a button to run filters on the individual MESSAGE?This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.2).
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
The addon window says it is not available for FF 5.0, but it still works, to a point. I have no need for the Quick List Titles used by Renamizer, so I delete them, but that is not honored through restart. Next time I start, that Quick List is back, and I have to delete them again.This user has a previous review of this add-on.
Tab Utilities
Right off the bat... Rated 4 out of 5 stars
For what I have seen, it's worth 4 stars, but I must admit that I am a little disappointed that RENAME TAB, despite being mentioned in more than one spot in promotional literature, doesn't seem to have made it into the lineup of working features. Renaming tabs was the main reason I even tried it.
I'll say more after I've used it for a while.
Awesome Screenshot Plus - Capture, Annotate & More
Huh? Rated 1 out of 5 stars
No instructions whatsoever, so I have no idea how to activate the thing, no idea if it works. Clicking on the website link doesn't work, and entering that manually brings me to a "Join this community" site which makes no mention of this add-on. Get your stuff together, folks. If I remember this somewhere down the road I will try it again, but at the moment, nothing.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.1.1-signed).
Feature suggestion Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Displaying a fictitious name on a tab is undoubtedly useful for those who want to hide what they're looking at, but all I want to do is rename a tab when what I am doing requires it. I do NOT want it renaming automatically. To that end, it seems to me I should be able to set it as a preference, or perhaps to clear the list of bogus names, but it doesn't allow me to do either.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9.6).
goo.gl lite
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Don't submit bug reports here? Then, pray tell, where do we do that? There is no button to add to the toolbar on FF 3.6.7/Mac OSX 10.6.4. Remove the hyphens: firstname.lastname@example.com review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.3).

Recentlty, I have had e-mails from my students stating that they have submitted their entry for review, yet I have had no notification. To be sure they weren't doing anything wrong, I created a different account, added myself as a user to the intial blog and wrote and entry and submitted it for review. Nothing happened.

SALEM, N.H. (MyFoxBoston.com) Police in New Hampshire are hoping to identify a man accused of brandishing a hypodermic needle while trying to steal from a hardware store.
Investigators say two men tried to steal several saw blades from the Lowe's Store in Salem at about 10 a.m. on Tuesday. When they were approached by a store loss prevention worker, one of the men pulled out a needle and began yelling, "I have AIDS!"
The worker let the suspects leave and they fled in a 2001 Nissan Maxima with Mass. license plate 3PVF20.
Police have issued an arrest warrant for one of the alleged suspects, 32-year-old Victor Garcia of Lawrence. Garcia was arrested last month for another theft.
Police are still looking for the second suspect, who they have not identified. Anyone with information should contact Salem Police.
Investigators say both men are accused of committing similar thefts in Lowe's stores throughout Mass. and N.H.

They make really good salespeople.
There are entire industries and companies whose business model is based on helping a company try and find really good salespeople. Research questionnaires, behavioral analytics, surveys, training, consultants, books, etc. I can show you a tried and true method I've used for the last 20 years since I discovered it while working at the 2nd fastest growing company in America. I've shared it with many for two decades and they have always reported great success. Here it is. - Ken
There are three questions we get asked at InsideSales.com:
Here's some answers to question number 2.
The year was 1994.
I had started the inside sales department at Franklin Quest, three years before they merged with Stephen R. Covey's organization and became FranklinCovey. That was the year they were ranked one of the fastest growing companies in America.
I was hiring inside sales reps like crazy. We were the fastest growing department in the company the previous year and would be for the next three.
We were trying to figure out what made up our top performers so we could hire more just like them. We went back and analyzed what factors, at least in the men on the team, made up the leaders in sales. As a side note, all the women on the team were in the top half of all of the performers.
Two factors for the men stood out: A strong background of personal athletic achievement… and being an Eagle Scout.
I began hiring Eagle Scouts, former collegiate athletes, and women as fast as I could.
Now the year is 2013
Our company, InsideSales.com, is hiring 200 people this year. We hired over 100 last year. Sales reps, developers, marketers, client services, recruiters, and a whole lot more. We watch for correlation between life experience and results in the real world.
We have gotten much more sophisticated in our hiring and we are working on some really cool stuff with predictive analytics for hiring top performers.
But those rules I learned back in my Franklin days two decades ago still hold true.
Competitive athletes... and Eagle Scouts.
Athletes work hard. They practice. They discipline themselves to continually do better. They work alone and in teams. They learn to finish. They like achievement. They like to learn their statistics. They live to improve their performance statistics.
They don't mind being measured on results.
The National Guard loves to recruit rugby players because they make the best soldiers... They play that crazy game with their heart as well as their mind, and unlike football, they don't wear padding!
My sales floor is chock full of competitive athletes: mixed martial arts, football, basketball, boxing, weightlifting... even soccer! (as an old football coach I collect soccer jokes... by the way, did you know that no world war has ever been won by a country whose national sport was soccer?)
Their values are teamwork, discipline, achievement, accountability, leadership, esprit de corps, completing tasks, doing hard things, and being mentally tough. That's why smart sales executives hire former competitive athletes in 2013 as much as ever.
Eagle Scouts have to persevere to finish. They have a wide range of skill sets. They learn to do hard things. They are disciplined. They aren't afraid of performance. They learn to lead in real world scenarios. They sacrifice their time to serve. They are also more mentally tough.

The New Orleans metropolitan area lost 5 percent of its jobs in 2012, making one of the 131 out of 337 metropolitan areas across the country to register a decrease over the year, according to figures Associated General Contractors of America released today.
The New Orleans-Metairie-Kenner construction market went from employing 28,000 people in December 2011 to employing 26,500 last month, a decline of 1,500 jobs.
The only other region in Louisiana to register a drop in construction jobs over the same period was Shreveport-Bossier City, which dropped from 7,100 to 6,300, 11 percent of its construction work force.
The top gainer in the state was Lafayette, which added 1,100 jobs. Its 17 percent increase was the third highest in the country, trailing only and Haverhill-North Andover-Amesbury, Mass., (22 percent, 800 jobs) and Pascagoula, Miss., (42 percent, 1,900 jobs).
Louisiana's largest construction job market, Baton Rouge, experienced a 13 percent increase in jobs, going from 40,500 to 45,900. Houma-Thibodaux market added 200 jobs, and the Lake Charles market added 100 jobs in the 12 month period.
Statewide, construction job numbers were up 3 percent last year. Louisiana added 4,700 jobs to bring its total to 179,600.
Nationally, the AGC report shows construction employment declined in 131 markets, increased in 139 and stayed stagnant in 65. Ken Simonson, the group's chief economist, noted that growing private sector demand for new construction projects is boosting employment in metro areas that are showing increases.
"Private sector demand for energy, health care, higher education and residential construction is having a positive impact in a growing number of metro areas," Simonson said. "Unfortunately, construction employment in almost as many metro areas appears to be suffering from declining public sector demand and a private sector market that is still well below peak levels."
Simonson said the increases in private sector activity helped boost construction spending levels more than 7 percent through November, but added that overall construction spending was still more than $300 billion below peak levels because of declining public sector activity and weaker demand for office, retail and lodging.

Former Vanderbilt star David Price left the Tampa Bay Rays game early Wednesday night with tightness in his left triceps.
The defending American League Cy Young Award winner left with one out in the third inning after giving up an RBI single to David Ortiz of the Red Sox.
Price noticeably grimaced after the play and manager Joe Maddon and the team's trainer all joined Price on the bound before he walked off the mound for good.
Price has struggled this season with a 1-3 record and a 4.78 ERA. He was charged with four runs and five hits in 2 1-3 innings.

PSP2: More Internal Memory Than The 360, Could Run Uncharted 3?
Well, if Game Informer will soon run an article about it, how much of a rumor can it really be?
According to MaxConsole, the Australian branch of the gaming publication recently ran a piece called, "PlayStation's New Portable," which is pretty self-explanatory. It also tells us the powerful little unit is actually capable of running something like Uncharted 3 and although we find that a tad difficult to believe, we have to realize that handheld technology improves right alongside console technology. There was a time when none of us could've dreamed we'd hold anything in our hands that could rival the PS2. Now, they say the next PSP is codenamed "Veta" for the time being and will hold even more internal memory than the Xbox 360 (1GB). Based on everything we've heard thus far, the PSP2 sounds like a beast of a machine, and we have heard an Uncharted game is in the works for the new portable hardware. That'd be one hell of a launch title, huh? I'd buy it.
We have to assume Sony is poised to unveil the PSP2 because at this point, it won't come as any big surprise, but at least we'll finally have all the facts.

LPDDR2 memory uses very little power in the order of about 400mW per unit. That kind of RAM would be more than acceptable and possibly provide 1GB capacity with ease. Samsung are sampling 8Gb memory modules at 30nm for release in 2011. Such devices would more than match the power and capacity requirements as well as offering good performance.

Anyhow, it'd be crazy if the PSP2 had 1GB of RAM. Devs would have massive amounts of memory to make games like Oblivion and Infamous to be insanely massive in real time complexity.
But I seriously doubt it, but hey! this PSP2 has got to beat the snot out of the 3DS and the Apple competition to really give itself a unique identity. And you can't do that with sub-par processing and memory. Maybe Sony just wants to really dig their claws in on the premium gaming market for the handhelds.. It'd probably not sell as well as it's competitors in terms of volume, but it'd sure as heck keep the more dedicated gamers nestled in with premium gaming.

If you made some compromises in the rendering and detail, you could run something like Uncharted on a suitably powerful handheld, bet let's not get carried away. There are no CPU/GPU combinations or System on a chip combinations in the mobile processor market that come remotely close to the kind of processing power in the PS3.
The very most you're talking about is a quad core based design running at 1Gz or less. Anything more would cripple the battery life beyond repair. There are currently no mobile processor architectures that resemble the Cell architecture, and in the embedded processor market there are a couple of designs but the one that comes closest to the rumored 4 core Cell-like processor consumes between 10 and 30 watts depending on the clock speed. Considering that even a 4000Mah battery can manage just 14.4 watts for a maximum of an hour (or some combination of watts vs time), that's just not going to happen.
So in terms of processor speed, when Uncharted is running at near peak performance on a 3.2Ghz processor with 1 PPC core and 6 active SPEs running at 3.2GHz with XDR memory running at 3.2GHz and a 500MHz GPU chugging along with it's own 48 processing elements in parallel; I just don't see how any mobile device available, or even on the drawing boards, today can hope to match that.
But then it's not about matching the computational power, it's about matching, or coming close to matching the functionality/appearance of a PS3 title.
Whatever is in the PSP2 it will be good, of that I have no doubt. But what it won't be the equivalent of half of a PS3.

I probably know it about as well as anyone who doesn't develop for it can. Don't get me wrong, I've a computer science degree, I've programmed for a living, and continue to work in the field, so I have the background.
I just really appreciate an innovative architecture like the one that the cell is. I've paid close attention to the PlayStation hardware in general too, but this PSP2 has me intrigued. I've been researching the various mobile processor designs and concepts, and although there's a mountain of reading still to do, I have a pretty good feel what what is and is not possible in the mobile processor market right now.
Funnily enough, the other processor architecture that I know well is the ARM which is at the core of the majority of the world's mobile processors. Although it has come a long way since I followed it as closely
Monday, December 20, 2010 @ 2:33:46 PM
I'm into tech as well, and find it amazing that you know this much information (prob more than some third pary devs) and yet you keep to yourself (unless you have a hidden blog or something) and then decide to bless us here at PSXE with your ungodly PS3 knowledge...awesome job man.
Monday, December 20, 2010 @ 4:02:04 PM
I used to write part time for a tech site, so I'm not entirely without experience. I just find that my day job normally takes too much time to do this professionally. That said, if the office gets any quieter this week, we'll be able to sneak out at noon every day. I hate this time of year at work, everyone else is on vacation and so little gets done.
Monday, December 20, 2010 @ 4:21:24 PM
Because even if the PSP2 does have more internal memory than the 360, it still won't be a better performance console than the 360 or even come close to the PS3. of course, that may not mean it's not possible in hypothetical terms of just powering the Cell BE with a battery, but who would want to play let's say, Uncharted 2 for only 20 minutes and then wait to get home and charge your PSP2 again?
I am pretty sure Sony is producing the PSP2 to be the best and compete with the rest of the handheld devices and not consoles directly.
Monday, December 20, 2010 @ 6:53:14 PM
A scaled down version of Uncharted 1, 2, or 3 would be possible on a device with half the processing power and twice the amount of RAM - well, twice the amount of total RAM. I'm sure some minor sacrafices would be made, such as draw distance and AA.
Monday, December 20, 2010 @ 9:24:40 PM
So I expect no less from PSP2. I think we'll see games that look and feel near PS3 caliber. It'll be interesting to see the facts once this think gets officially unveiled. Heck, there's rumors suggesting that it could be using a powerful 4 core mobile GPU by NVIDIA.

Monday, December 20, 2010 @ 10:08:00 PM
I understand what you are saying, Devs can 'cheat' to an extent because of the dimensions of the screen. However if the PSP2 has a true 720p screen, Devs will develop to that standard.
With respect to making a guestimate about what would be required to run Uncharted with a lower resolution/polygon count, I don't know. What I d know is that you won't get a half of the performance of a PS3 in a mobile device, a Portable device perhaps, but not a hand held mobile device. Both in terms of the number of cores and clock speed, there is simply no way you can shoe horn half a PS3 into a mobile device, not if you want it to have a battery life that extends beyond about 30 minutes. If you went with 4 cores at 1GHz (or there about) you might, get a device that is half the performance of a Cell BE running at 1GHZ, but since the PS3 runs at 3.2GHz, it's more like 1/6 of the processor power. Remember the Cell BE and RSX are fully fledged desktop devices, they make no concessions to ultra low power operation. The cores in mobile devices are not just on very low power materials with lower clock speeds, their very design is optimized for power consumption. Compared to a full desktop processor, these mobile devices can be missing some of the performance optimizations made for desktop use.
Now, all of that said, considering the power of a PS3, a hand held with a significant fraction of the power of a PS3 is absolutely nothing to be sneezed at. But, people really do have to reconsider just what is truly possible in the kind of power envelope mobile processors in hand held devices run in.
My Motorola Droid, for example has a Coretex A8 ARM processor clocked at 550MHz. It's fairly speedy for most - ordinary - tasks. That processor uses about a third of a watt, it is a sub-watt device. That is the kind of power envelope that a hand held has to run in. Sony might use a *much* bigger battery and get away with over a watt for the CPU, but you have to add in the power costs for the other components including the GPU, screen and backlight.
If you assume that they take the 1200mAh battery from the PSP2000/3000 and double it, that's 2400mAh. At 3.6 volts that's 8.6 watt hours. To get a 4 hour life, the system has to run on just over 2 watts per hour. Incidentally, this means that the PSP-2000/3000 runs on about 1 watt per hour, sometimes less. The original PSP used about 50% more power.
The PSP2 has to be a very low power device, it's simple physics. The battery capacity and expected battery life time set the parameters.

When people say the PSP2 can run Uncharted 3, I believe we should take into consideration the marketing push behind the claim. Really what they are probably saying is PSP2 can be capable of some of the best PS3 graphics.
@Temjin; The Tegra 2 is what the rumor was for the Nvidia GPU on PSP2. Though, as Highlander has been adamant about the power consumption being an issue, the article I read states that it's actually one of the hurdles they apparently have with the Tegra 2.
As for the image looking sharper, with a small screen the developers are able to get away with the removal of anti-aliasing with minimal visual impact to reduce the workload on the GPU allowing for better performance. This and the higher resolution LCD screen compared to your standard CRT 480i makes the PSP appear to have sharper images. The screen really makes that much of a difference when comparing the PSP and the PS2.
The PS2 CPU may run at a slower clock speed than the PSP, but is capable of far better graphics than the PSP. I would not be surprised if the core issue preventing a mobile gaming device from exceeding graphic capabilities of console brethren all fall back to power consumption.

When the PSP was launched, people said:
"I hope the PSP doesn't get a bunch of sub par PS2 ports. I want the PSP to have original games."
Well, there were some poor PS2 ports, but the PSP soon started to get games of it's own. The trouble was that by that time, people wanted PS2 games on the PSP. It's best for there to be a mix of games. Personally I like having mobile versions of my favorite games on my PSP, and I like having games made specifically for it.
The worst thing about what you say though is that when that same argument was used on the PSP is was used to decry the lack of original games. In other words it was one of those damned if you do, damned if you don't situations where if original games were made, they didn't sell as well, but if PS2 ports happened, people bashed because it was a port.
Personally, I think you're worrying over nothing.

so sonys going to release a PSP2 which makes the ps3 look like ancient history!?
yea, and pigs fly backwards while eating caramel cheese cake!
and what is going to be powering this thing?
a battery so big, it would require so much juice, would get so hot it would need liquid nitrogen to cool it!
yea, excuse me if im a little doubtful.
in fact this is so unlikely, its more likely tomorrow ill wake up and find a chicken ray gun sitting under my bed.........

Save Pole Mountain Matching Donation
This fall millions of people will head to the nation's mountains and national parks to ooo and awe at the incredible colors nature tends to flaunt this time of year.
Why not contribute to the beauty by saving Pole Mountain!
At 2,204 feet, Pole Mountain is the highest peak along the Sonoma Coast in California. From now until November 28 all donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $100,000 to help Sonoma Land Trust purchase and manage the property. If the necessary funds are not raised the current purchase agreement will expire and the land will be sold and subdivided into four vineyard estates that will ruin the natural wildlife habitat and keep it off limits for future recreation.
"There is only one Pole Mountain, with its extraordinary panoramic views and connectivity for wildlife and hikers. Now is the time to protect it."

Friday Pizza Party Breakfast Links
Cool photo, don't you think? Minneapolis Veteran's Cemetery. My wife's uncle who died in WW2 is buried there.
I don't think there is any question a downgrade of US debt is imminent no matter what happens. You don't run deficits at that percentage of GDP and not get downgraded. This is an interesting discussion about the possibilities.
Boehner has a pizza party. Being from Chicago, we know a little bit about pizza. Lou Malnati's is my favorite. Lots of people like Gino's East. But there are some small pizza places that are amazing. GQ called Great Lake the best pizza in the US. Piece is better than any east coast pizza place. (sorry Nate Silver), and I want to try Roots. Boehner is playing on Obama's turf when it comes to pizza! By the way, Michelle may be pretty ticked off unless there are some fruit toppings on that pizza!
Lots of truth in this. Republicans are split. Big whup.
GDP is out today. Over under on 2% growth?
Unemployment recovery. Abysmal and why.
The Republicans that are blocking the Boehner plan are dumber than a box of rocks. The numbers don't matter. It's all about the date. I agree 100% with Thomas Sowell. Let the Senate reject it. This isn't about today, it's about 2012.
The day the market died.
A shout out to global warming advocates: There is no God. If you truly value science, you will see the science just doesn't stack up. Can we build some nuclear electricity plants now please?
This is a succinct, and great cartoon

In my long time career as a licensed manicurist, I can't tell you how many times a guest of mine would come in to receive a pedicure and apologize to me for not shaving their legs.
As a heart-based practitioner, and a professional, it is not what I EVER think about as I give a pedicure, just as a Massage Therapist is not looking/judging your body, and a Gynecologist is not …well you get the picture.
In fact, I would put the guest at ease by informing them that their not having freshly-shaven-legs is a Wise decision for a couple of reasons:
1. If you are going to get a pedicure and you are questionable about the sanitation practices of the Salon or Technician, especially if they are using a whirlpool soaking unit that can harbor and circulate bacteria, then it is wise not to shave 24 hrs prior to your service as your skin would be extra-exfoliated and more open to any germs or bacteria than may be present.
2. If your service is to include a foot and leg scrub, chances are the scrub contains salt in it, and you're going to feel the burn, especially if you have sensitive skin as I do and have learned this first hand.
So go ahead and go stubbly to your next Pedicure, play it Safe and Enjoy the Scrub!
If you haven't yet, stop by my FACEBOOK page and say "Hello!"

Parents, Students Act on School Safety
While the City Council considers a proposal to fine families of children who get into fights at school, parents in Austin are improving classroom behavior and performance with an educational discipline program based on "restorative justice," and students are discussing initiatives to reduce tensions at Clemente High School.
Earlier this year members of the citywide parent group POWER-PAC established the Austin Peace Center at Brunson Elementary School, with support from the State's Attorney's Project Reclaim.
POWER-PAC has called for education-oriented discipline programs as an alternative to excessive use of suspensions, which they say don't improve behavior or address underlying issues.
At Brunson students facing suspension or detention were referred to the peace center, and one group of boys and one of girls each met for twice-weekly after-school sessions for several months. They learned conflict resolution strategies and got homework help and one-on-one time with adult mentors. A conflict resolution approach called "peace circles" was used to handle classroom infractions, bringing together everyone involved in a supportive conversation which holds offenders accountable.
Volunteer parents and community residents serve as Peacemakers, staffing the peace center during school days. "Kids can ask to talk to a Peacemaker if they're getting upset," said Lynn Morton of POWER-PAC. "They can sit and talk and calm down, and then go and have a great day."
Discipline problems have gone down and grades have gone up for participating students, Morton said.
Several Austin school are interested in joining the program, she said, and next year they will expand to Howe Elementary, 720 N. Lorel.
Students participating in the Austin Peace Center will be recognized in an awards ceremony on Thursday, June 8, 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., at Brunson, 932 N. Central.
Backed by Community Organizing and Family Issues, POWER-PAC is also pressing to reinstate recess in CPS elementary schools, in order to improve behavior and learning.
At Clemente High School, students are discussing starting a welcoming committee for students transferred from Austin High as it is phased out, said Freddie Calixto, executive director of BUILD Inc., which has worked with Clemente students on gang and violence issues for several years.
Fights went up dramatically at Clemente after Austin students were transferred there this year.
Of the welcoming committee Calixto said, "They could have done it this year," but information about the student transfer "didn't funnel down to the community level. People didn't know what was going on, so they didn't know how to respond."
Clemente students are also planning to reach out to parents from the Austin area, and they have called for more security at the school and better training for security personnel, Calixto said.
They've also won administration support for scattered dismissal times, reviving a proposal that had been rejected in the past, he said.

Regional Reviews: Cleveland & Akron
Legacy of Light
Also see David's review of Two Gentlemen of Verona
When a young playwright is at the peak of her powers, she is capable of creating a spectacular script. That's what happens in Karen Zacarias' new play, Legacy of Light. It's spectacular.
The playwright sets the story in two time periods. One section is set in France in the eighteenth century. Those scenes are juxtaposed with a group of scenes set in the United States in the present. Each story deals with an outstanding woman who has to wrestle with career-building, children, and a relationship with her husband or lover.
In France, Emilie du Châtelet (1706-1749) continues her groundbreaking arithmetical research. (Her work continues to be admired today.) She is married to Monsieur du Châtelet (Paul Michael Valley) and has an ongoing affair with Saint-Lambert (Chancy O'Connor). Her best friend and colleague is Voltaire (Lenny Von Dohlen). Centuries later, Olivia (Michelle Duffy), a modern-day astrophysicist, discovers a new planet. She is married to Peter, a grade-school teacher. They want a child, so they hire a surrogate to carry and give birth to their baby.
Bart DeLorenzo (director) moves the action over the centuries with a seamlessness that is admirable. Many of the actors play two roles. DeLorenzo helps these actors make their characters so distinct that it seems impossible that a single actor could possibly play both characters.
David Kay Mickelsen (costume designer) helps make each character distinct with costumes that are historically accurate, stage worthy, and appropriate for the script.
Takeshi Kata (scenic designer) has created a set that deserves applause for its beauty and its suitability for the demands of the script. The set include a large apple tree (a reference to Newton's theories on gravity). Furniture rolls in on turntables and wagons.
Everything works in harmony to support the playwright's work.
Zacarias has created an interesting, entertaining script that is beautifully performed by the company in the Cleveland Play House.
Legacy of Light is part of the Cleveland Play House's Fusion Festival, an annual spring event.
This production is bittersweet; it is the final production in the Cleveland Play House's facility. The building has been sold and the company will move to downtown Cleveland and be affiliated with the Cleveland PlayhouseSquare.
In its new facility next season, the Cleveland Play House will offer Galileo (September 16 - October 2, 2011), Daddy Long Legs (October 21 - November 13, 2011), The Game's Afoot (Or Holmes for the Holidays) (November 25 - December 18, 2011), Ten Chimneys (January 13 - February 5, 2012), Radio Golf (February 10 - March 4, 2012), Red (March 16 - April 8, 2012) and In the Next Room or The Vibrator Play (April 13 - May 6, 2012).
Legacy of Light will continue in the Drury Theatre, Cleveland Play House, through May 1, 2011. For ticket information, telephone 216-795-7000, ext. 4 or visit www.clevelandplayhouse.com.

Define "start work on" :) At what point do idle musings about a possibility become actual work? According to McCarthy, early key ideas and experiments in Lisp occurred between 1956 and 1958, some of which using a Fortran-based back end (so I was wrong to say there was no connection -- McCarthy was certainly aware of Fortran and at least mildly influenced by its "formula translation" aspect). Between 1958 and 1962 Lisp was implemented and used for experiments in AI. http://www-formal.stanford.edu/jmc/history/lisp.ps In Fortran's case, I haven't been able to find when John Backus first started thinking about the idea, but he submitted a proposal to IBM in late 1953. A draft specification followed in 1954, followed by a manual in 1956 and finally a compiler in 1957. I guess the pace of computer software releases was slower back then, and people more forgiving of vapourware. <wink> -- Steven

Conflicting estimates on when to expect the final rule
The Obama administration has indicated the U.S. Department of Labor's (DOL's) highly controversial rule that will expand the number of workers who are eligible for overtime pay—by changing many currently exempt workers' status to nonexempt—will not be issued before July 2016.
According to the
Fall 2015 Unified Agenda and Regulatory Plan, published on Nov. 20 by the Office of Management and Budget, the earliest the final rule could be released would be in July, but DOL officials have indicated that the rule is likely to be issued sometime closer to the end of the year while still leaving time for the rule to take effect before the president leaves office.
proposed rule was
released on June 30 of this year and received more than 250,000 comments during the comment period this summer.
The Unified Agenda, published twice yearly in spring and fall, identifies regulatory priorities and contains additional details about the most significant regulatory actions that federal agencies expect to take in the coming year. However, the information it provides is collected well in advance of its publication, and the dates it gives for upcoming rules and regulations is best viewed as the earliest possible time frame, rather than as the likely issuance date, explained Nancy Hammer, senior government affairs policy counsel at the Society for Human Resource Management.
"The important thing to know about these dates is that they are estimates and rarely accurate," Hammer said. "The agency has no legal obligation to meet that published deadline. Some rules have been on the regulatory agenda for years and they just change the date with the new agenda comes out."
While SHRM anticipates that the rule will, in fact, become final in 2016, "I would not put too much emphasis on the July date" in the Unified Agenda, Hammer added. "DOL officials have said 'late 2016.' The bottom line is that HR needs to be ready to comply in 2016—that means looking now at how the rule could impact their organization," she advised.
SHRM Online recently reported, and Hammer noted, Solicitor of Labor Patricia Smith told attendees at an American Bar Association conference Nov. 5 that the DOL will not release its final rule on overtime until late 2016. That suggests that the time between publication of the final rule and its effective date will be short, and that the effective date of the new regulations likely will not exceed 30 to 60 days after the final regulations are published.
"The later the final rule is published, the smaller the window of time the department can allow before the new regulations become effective," said Paul DeCamp, an attorney with Jackson Lewis in the firm's Washington, D.C., office and a former administrator of the Wage and Hour Division.
Stephen Miller, CEBS, is an online editor/manager for SHRM. Allen Smith, J.D., manager of workplace law content for SHRM, contributed to this article.

Hardware Stores Are Experiencing A Boom In Rope Sales Thanks To A Certain Erotic Novel
The New York Post is reporting that hardware stores in NYC have seen an increase in rope sales over the past several months — and it's not because men are suddenly conquering their to-do lists. The novel has encouraged women to explore their kinky sides with materials used in the novel like rope, riding crops and handcuffs. NYC's Babeland has seen its sales of kinky toys increase 30 percent and an 81 percent increase in traffic to its website, the Post reports.

Meet the most fascinating and problematic pop star of the moment, Antoine Dodson.
If you're a follower of internet memes, you know the story by now. If not: Antoine, his sister Kelly and her daughter were asleep in their apartment in the Lincoln Park housing project in Huntsville, Alabama. An intruder broke in and sexually assaulted Kelly before Antoine chased him off. The family complained to the housing project authorities, who were unmoved. So on July 28, 2010, the Dodsons took their story to the local news. Here's the clip:
The video became an instant YouTube sensation. Antoine is a charismatic guy, with a distinctive way of expressing his anger. Many people found him funny for his stereotypical ghetto mannerisms filtered through his flamboyant gayness. It's a depressingly familiar story: the internet chooses someone to make the object of random large-scale ridicule, then gets bored and moves on.
But then, enter the Gregory Brothers, the prankster musicians behind the hilarious Auto-tune The News videos. The Gregorys have lately been Auto-tuning viral Youtube videos in addition to TV. As Michael Gregory observed, Antoine's outburst had a strong melody to it. So it seemed like a natural move to do the "Bed Intruder Song."
This track launched both Antoine and the Gregorys into the pop mainstream. It became YouTube's most viewed video, with twenty million views as of this writing and no end in sight. The song has been climbing the iTunes charts and even cracked the Billboard top 100, the first web meme to do so. It would be a hugely significant pop artifact for that reason alone. But the fascination and horror of the song only begins there. It's problematic in a way that the Double Rainbow song isn't. You couldn't ask for a more complex set of emotions than the ones that "Bed Intruder" inspires in me.
The case against
Everything about this story sets off my political alarms: a bunch of white Brooklyn hipsters do a parodic take on a horrific tragedy befalling a poor urban black family, using a music style appropriated from black urban culture. My liberal guilt kept me from even listening to the song for the first couple of weeks it was making the rounds. The worst part is at the end where Evan Gregory sings the song accompanying himself on piano in an exaggerated soul singer voice, radiating smug entitlement. That part makes me want to die of embarrassment.
The case for
Antoine Dodson himself told CBS news that while the attention bothered him initially, he now sees it more positively: "A blessing came out of a bad situation, a blessing in disguise." He hired a lawyer, set up a web site and has been earnestly setting about professionalizing his fame. He seems fine with the song and has it set as his ringtone.
Brooklyn hipsters though they may be, the Gregorys seem like genuinely decent, well-intentioned people. I met Michael on the subway a few months ago, and in our brief conversation he came across as polite, nerdy, self-deprecating, basically like any of my friends. The Gregorys have been doing the right thing by Antoine, splitting all the proceeds from the song fifty-fifty with the Dodsons, and mostly behaving respectfully.
As a piece of music, the song works. It's the strongest tune the Gregorys have produced so far. It has a great melody, a strong hook, and the emotions come across loud and clear. A friend and collaborator of mine, one of the most adventurous musicians I know, adores the song. I was surprised, because she herself has been the victim of sexual assault. The Dodsons' situation is terrible, but Antoine is showing a fierce desire to protect his sister. His on-air rant is an expression of love and support. My friend finds the song to be uplifting, and apparently she's not alone.
The Gregorys have become very adept at self-promotion using YouTube. One of their brightest innovations is to include lyrics and chords to make it easy for people to do remixes and covers, and the internet has responded. Here are the most interesting ones, starting with the North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University Marching Band:
DeStorm cover/parody, complete with costume:
I like the Gregorys and am glad they're breaking through into the mainstream, troubling though I find the circumstances of their breakthrough. And I'm pulling for the Dodsons. Antoine has a web site that includes video of him answering questions from the fans.
Usually internet fame chews up its recipients and spits them out. I hope all this brings the Dodsons some happiness.

Belhadj and Boateng's Lazio moves off?
'If' The Mail is right Pompey are playing hardball with Lazio, and WILL NOT be taken for mugs.
The 'reports' in The Mail are saying that Lazio's efforts to sign Nadir Belhadj 'appear' to have failed after the failure to agree a suitable enough deal for Billy and his Pompey teammate Kevin-Prince Boateng, who also looks 'set' to move elsewhere...
An £8m joint offer is 'said' to have been made for the Pompey pair, which was acceptable, although the fact that Lazio wanted to 'stagger payments' has 'thrown the deal into jeopardy.'
Apparently a better money offer has been made from a club in Qatar for Billy so we are going to try and get that deal done instead...
Boateng, who had a fantastic world cup for Ghana, 'could' be subjected to a 'bidding war' now if we are lucky as it is 'claimed' that other clubs are willing to better the £4.5m on the table from Lazio, with fellow Italian club Genoa 'believed' to be interested.
It is a shame that his tackle injured in the cup final injured Michael Ballack as there would have been plenty of interest from Germany otherwise, although the way I see it perhaps they should be thanking him! Injuring Ballack has brought young, fresher, fitter and arguably better players in as a result.
Both WILL move on but it does 'seem' as though Pompey really are not being taken for a ride with this transfer, which as much as we need deals to be done, is good to see - assuming these 'reports' are actually accurate...

And arguably worse than Judy is Meg, one of the counselors, who is extremely nasty and aggressive towards Angela in a way that would get her fired would anyone else be running that camp.* AssholeVictim: Most of the victims. Most notably Artie the cook, who ''really'' likes children (yes, in ''that'' way). Ironically, he's also the only victim who doesn't die. Though if he survived his grave injuries it's likely a FateWorseThanDeath. He's horribly disfigured and likely blind by the time he's rolled off to hospital. However some of the victims are selected for very petty reasons, most notably [[spoiler: the young children murdered for being a bit bratty and kicking sand at Angela.]]* AxCrazy: The killer has a lot of pent-up aggression as shown by the brutality.* BeeBeeGun: [[spoiler: Billy]] is stung to death when a beehive is dropped into his bathroom stall.* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: The reason why [[spoiler: Angela]] spares Ricky, Ronnie and Susie.* BigBrotherInstinct: Ricky was very protective of Angela throughout the movie. His behavior is the reason why camp owner Mel suspected him as killing kids that picked on Angela.* BigOMG: During TheReveal.* BiggerBad: [[spoiler: The demented Aunt Martha took a mentally fragile boy and forced him to be the daughter she always wanted. Worse still this involved pretending to be his recently dead sister. Add in the trauma of losing his family and being raised by a lunatic, Peter ends up becoming a psychotic serial killer.]]* ButtMonkey: Mozart who is on the receiving end of several pranks in the boys cabin.* ChekhovsGun: Aunt Martha gives Ricky and Angela signed physical examination forms so they can go to camp. [[spoiler: There's a good [[CreepyCrossdresser reason]] she doesn't want another doctor taking a look at Angela...]]* ClassClown: Kenny.* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Aunt Martha is a particularly creepy one [[spoiler:[[BiggerBad that is ultimately responsible for the whole mess due to her madness]]]].* CradlingYourKill: [[spoiler: Angela, or rather Peter, holds Paul in his arms.]]* CreepyCrossdresser: [[spoiler: Angela is actually Martha's nephew, Peter; the crazy old bat, upon winning custody of him, forced him to dress up as and pretend to be a girl because she wanted a girl and not a boy.]]* CruelAndUnusualDeath: [[spoiler: Judy]] has...''{{s|hadowDiscretionShot}}omething'' done to her with a curling iron.* {{Dedication}}: Robert Hiltzik dedicated the movie to his mother.* DontGoInTheWoods: Several kids take a trip to the woods, and never return.* EightiesHair: Mullets!* FinalGirl: Inverted with Angela [[spoiler: who is the killer and really a guy]]. A better example would be [[spoiler: Susie]] considering she's one of the few survivors.* FlippingTheBird: Ricky delivers one to Judy after she makes out with Paul just to hurt Angela. * FollowTheLeader: So wait, an old summer camp is being reopened and a killer starts offing people. [[Film/FridayThe13th1980 Sounds kinda familiar.]]* {{Foreshadowing}}: There are clues hidden throughout the film that allude to [[spoiler: Angela's real identity]]. For example, [[spoiler: Angela refuses to swim in the lake with the other campers, and at one point, Judy asks why she always showers alone.]]* FreudianExcuse:** The killer has a doozy of one. [[spoiler: Peter's family died in a boating accident and his aunt forced him to dress in women's clothing and otherwise pretend to be her niece, who she preferred but actually died in the accident.]]** [[spoiler: Also attributed to Peter/Angela going catatonic is the implication that he once witnessed his father with his homosexual lover.]]* GroinAttack: Strongly implied to have happened to [[spoiler: Judy]]. With a curling iron to boot! However, whilst the scene indicates the possibility, it never explicitly shows what happened.* HarmfulToMinors: Angela witnessing the death of her family. [[spoiler:Well, Peter witnessing his father and sister's deaths more accurately.]]* [[HasTwoMommies Has Two Daddies]]: Angela's dad's boyfriend didn't get custody after the accident.* HellIsThatNoise: The creepy breathing/moaning that [[spoiler:Angela]] does at the end.* ItsAllAboutMe: Judy is incredibly self centered, insecure and jealous. Her ego is so massive that she becomes envious of Paul and Angela despite having several other men fawn over her constantly. Apparently the idea of a girl who isn't like her, that also has a man's attention, just rubs her the wrong way. Interestingly it's implied that before she hit puberty she wasn't such a jerkass with a high opinion of herself. ** Angela's aunt is a variant. [[spoiler: She wants a little girl to raise, not a boy. So she decides that when she is left with custody of Peter due to the death of his entire family, she has a ''right'' to force him to adopt his sister Angela's identity.]]* ImpendingDoomPOV: Both subverted and played straight.* InfantImmortality: Averted, even kids are not safe from the killer.* InsaneTrollLogic: [[spoiler: Aunt Martha wanted to raise Peter as a girl because "she already has a son and it won't do", so as said above, she forced Peter to live with Angela's identity.]] * {{Jerkass}}: Pretty much every one who is targeted by the killer. There's also [[MyFriendsAndZoidberg Aunt Martha]].* JerkJock: Campers Billy and Mike.* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler: Peter/]]Angela's aunt.** Although [[spoiler: there is a FreezeFrameBonus in Film/ReturnToSleepawayCamp that shows a newspaper clipping about what Aunt Martha did to Peter and mentioning that she is in police custody. So presumably she did face the consequences of her actions, albeit offscreen]].** [[spoiler:Angela/Peter her/himself. Nothing is said to have happened to her/him.]]* KickTheSonOfABitch: [[spoiler: Angela]] scalds the pedophile cook with boiling water.* KnifeNut: [[spoiler: Meg]] is killed with a knife pulled down through her spine.* KubrickStare: Angela seems to pull this off frequently.* LargeHam: Mel, whenever he starts flipping out.* MaleFrontalNudity: [[spoiler:Peter]] at the end.* MayDecemberRomance: Mel and Meg.* MyBelovedSmother: Aunt Martha to Angela.* NerdGlasses: Mozart is the sole character wearing glasses, which makes him the "loser nerd" of the cast.* NightmareFace: [[spoiler:The final shot of the film.]]* NothingIsScarier: [[spoiler: Judy's]] death is more disturbing because we're not shown what happens when she is killed with the curling iron.** Same thing with the [[spoiler: kids Angela hacked]] and [[spoiler: Paul]]. All were killed offscreen, and we don't know the events that lead to them.* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler: Paul is decapitated off-screen with a hatchet.]]* OhCrap: The ending and its reveal.* PeekABooCorpse: Several victims are discovered this way. One beneath a boat and another corpse falling from behind a shower curtain.* PrimalScene: PlayedForDrama. [[spoiler: Angela and her brother Peter, as kids, saw their father spooning which another man (not sex, just embracing lovingly), which seemed to confuse them more than anything else. Peter, now being forced to be a girl against his will, is now deeply confused about his own sexuality and flashes back to this when contemplating being hit on by Paul. Unable to sort his feelings out, he eventually winds up murdering Paul.]]* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Ronnie, the buffed-up, muscle-shirt-wearing counselor, really does care about the kids and their safety in the face of the killings, far moreso than the selfish, asshole owner of the camp. He gets a PetTheDog moment early on when he politely tries to get a homesick Angela to eat her lunch. Another counselor, Susie, also counts, as she's always kind towards Angela, to the point that she loses it and slaps Judy in the face when the latter wouldn't stop her nasty verbal abuse towards Angela.* RedHerring: Hints that [[spoiler: Ricky]] is the killer. While this is obvious to the more GenreSavvy viewers it later works in the film's favor, as TheReveal is more terrifying. There's a twist, just not of the nature you thought you were getting. This was all made more confusing by the fact that [[spoiler:Ricky's]] actor did all the 'kill scenes'.* RightForTheWrongReasons: Mel soon connects the dots as to why the victims are being targeted. [[spoiler: They have all wronged Angela.]] But then blames the wrong person. He suspects [[spoiler: Ricky is murdering people out of some twisted desire to protect Angela. When in reality "Angela" is actually killing them personally.]] * SickeninglySweethearts: Everyone makes fun of Paul and Angela for being this. They sort of are for a while until [[spoiler:the end]].* SirSwearsALot: Ricky. * ShadowDiscretionShot: [[spoiler: Judy's]] death. We don't explicitly see what the killers done, only that it involves a curling iron and an awful lot of pain.* ShesAllGrownUp: PlayedWith. Paul, in an admittedly juvenile manner, points out to Ricky that Judy's hit puberty since last they met. However she doesn't think Ricky's any good for her now that she's "more mature" and Ricky takes an instant disliking to her new found personality.* ShrinkingViolet: Angela. [[spoiler: Until it turns out that "she" is a psychotic killer.]]* SoundtrackDissonance: On the ending credits.%%* SummerCampy* SympathyForTheDevil: [[spoiler:Angela. Rather than view "her" as aimless psycho killer, you can actually pity her]]. And that's pretty scary in itself.* ThousandYardStare: Again, Angela, [[http://needcoffee.cachefly.net/needcoffee/uploads/2008/01/scamp1.jpg as seen here]].* TwistEnding: One of the most infamous ones, perhaps because it has multiple twists. [[spoiler: Sweet little Angela is the killer. And wait, she's not even Angela: she's Angela's brother Peter, as the real Angela died with the rest of his family, but Peter's crazy Aunt Martha forced him to adopt Angela's identity.]]* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Craig and Mary-Ann, the two teens in the opening who [[spoiler: accidentally cause the boating accident that kills most of the Baker family and kicks off the entire franchise]].** A less innocent example would be [[spoiler: Aunt Martha]]. True, [[spoiler: her forcing Peter to adopt the identity of his dead sister was horrifying and abusive]] but she probably didn't expect it [[spoiler: to escalate to serial murder]].* TheVoiceless: Initally Angela. Though she soon upgrades to TheQuietOne.* VomitIndiscretionShot: Jeff upon discovering [[spoiler: the bodies of butchered camp children]].* WhamLine: -->'''Aunt Martha:''' Angela. Such a lovely name. Why I believe it means 'angel'! Why, yes, I'm ''sure'' it does! [[spoiler: I know you're going to like that name, won't you, Peter?]] * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:The movie ends on Ronnie and Susie discovering "Angela's" secret, leaving their fates unknown. Ronnie winds up returning in one of the later films.]]* WhenSheSmiles: Angela is typically meant to look like a CreepyChild with an expressionless ThousandYardStare. When not being abused by bullies and talking to Ricky and Paul, Angela comes out of her shell a little and starts smiling, which makes her look adorable.* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: It gets increasingly difficult not to see [[spoiler: Angela/Peter]] as this.* YourCheatingHeart: Paul kissed Judy while he was trying to build a relationship with Angela. Though he regrets doing it immediately. Needless to say, [[spoiler:Angela]] wasn't happy about this, and made him [[spoiler: the last victim of the film]].-----> ''[[WesternAnimation/RobotChicken Oh my God!

PSV has announced the signing of Netherlands international Adam Maher from AZ for an undisclosed fee.
The 19-year-old will sign a five-year deal with the Eredivisie giant upon the completion of his medical on Monday, with the fee believed to be in the region of 8 million euros.
The Eindhoven side was in the market for a new attacking midfielder due to the expected departure of Ola Toivonen this summer and identified Maher as the ideal candidate to replace him.
"It had been our wish to lure him to PSV for quite some time. I am very pleased with his arrival, because we really wanted him," sporting director Marcel Brands commented on the transfer.
"We have signed yet another talented Dutchman, which suits our philosophy."
Maher came through the ranks of the AZ youth academy and has developed into a key player with the Alkmaar side in the past two seasons, teaming well with U.S. star Jozy Altidore and playing a key part in the American striker having two strong seasons with the club.
He had also caught the attention of clubs such as Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea and Ajax, but will continue his career at PSV instead.
Maher becomes PSV's third signing of the summer transfer window after the arrivals of Jeffrey Bruma and Florian Jozefzoon.

John Kerry pushes 'several proposals' to restore truce in Syria
US Secretary of State John Kerry has said "several proposals" aimed at finding a way to restore at least a partial truce in Syria are being discussed, amid continuing attacks in the city of Aleppo.
Speaking after meeting with Saudi foreign minister Adel al-Jubeir and the UN envoy for Syria, Staffan de Mistura, in Geneva, Mr Kerry said progress is being made towards an understanding on how to reduce the violence in Aleppo - but more work is needed.
"There are several proposals that are now going back to key players to sign off," Mr Kerry said.
"We are hopeful but we are not there yet... we are going to work very hard in the next 24 hours, 48 hours to get there."
He did not say what the proposals are, adding that he would telephone Russia's foreign minister Sergei Lavrov later on Monday and that Mr de Mistura is heading to Moscow on Tuesday for talks.
He said the United States and Russia have agreed that there will be additional personnel stationed in Geneva around the clock to make sure there is more accountability and a better ability to enforce the cessation of hostilities on a day-to-day basis.
Speaking later to staff at the US mission in Geneva, Mr Kerry said he hopes an agreement about Aleppo could be announced within the next few days.
For Aleppo, the US is considering drawing up with the Russians a detailed map that would lay out "safe zones".
Civilians and members of moderate opposition groups covered by the truce could find shelter from persistent attacks by Syrian president Bashar Assad's military, which claims to be targeting terrorists. One U.S. official said "hard lines" would delineate specific areas and neighbourhoods.
It was not immediately clear whether Russia would accept such a plan or if Moscow could persuade the Assad government to respect the prospective zones. Some US officials are sceptical of the chances for success, but also note that it is worth a try to at least reduce the violence.
US officials also say the safe zones will not be "no-fly zones" per se. However, details, such as the locations of those, have not yet been agreed to and these issues will be discussed by Mr Kerry and Mr Lavrov in a phone call later Monday, as well as by Mr Lavrov and Mr de Mistura in Moscow.
Earlier, Mr al-Jubeir called the situation in Aleppo with continued air strikes an "outrage" and a criminal violation of humanitarian law.
He said Assad would be held accountable for the attacks and would be removed from power either through a political process or by force.
"There is only one side that is flying air planes, and that is Bashar al-Assad and his allies, so they are responsible for the massacre of women, children, and the elderly," he said.
"They are responsible for the murder of doctors and medical personnel, and this situation, any way you slice it, will not stand. The world is not going to allow them to get away with this."
Mr Kerry's meetings in Geneva came as Syria's state news agency said the military has extended its ceasefire around Damascus and opposition strongholds in eastern suburbs for another 48 hours.
Mr Kerry said he hoped the truce in these areas would be extended further.
But it excludes Aleppo, where more than 250 people have died in shelling and air strikes in the northern city over the last nine days, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
Russia's Tass news agency, meanwhile, quoted Russian Lt Gen Sergei Kuralenko, head of the Russian co-ordination centre in Syria, as saying that talks are continuing about a ceasefire for Aleppo.

Honda and Ariel Motor Company have renewed their exclusive engine supply deal for the Atom and the Nomad, just as the 1,500th Honda-powered Atom rolled off the assembly line in Somerset.
This agreement goes back 16 years and will continue to see the Atom use a supercharged Civic Type R engine, while the new off-road Nomad will also continue to be powered by the Civic 2.4-liter iVTEC unit.
The faster of the two is of course the Atom – powered by either a 310 BHP or 350 BHP supercharged Honda unit. It's these types of numbers that allow for a 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h) acceleration of less than 2.7 seconds, as well as a top speed of over 155 mph (250 km/h).
"Our customers are hugely passionate about driving so the engine is everything," says Ariel founder Simon Saunders. "When we tell new customers that it's a Honda they simply nod and move on to the next question. They just know that it works. Switching to Honda engines is one of the best decisions that we've ever made. It's a brand that can't be matched for performance and bulletproof reliability and we're delighted that this success is set to continue well into the future."
Aside from the custom-built Atom and the new off-road Nomad, Ariel recently introduced the Mad Max-worthy Ace motorcycle, which of course is also exclusively powered by Honda – specifically a 173 BHP V6 1,237cc unit, which leads to a top speed of 165 mph (265 km/h).

Seven hundred Jews who were preparing to leave here for Palestine have been left homeless and destitute by the sudden withdrawal by British authorities of 700 of 1,000 Palestine immigration certificates allocated to the Jews of Bulgaria.
The 700, consisting of men, women and children, had sold their belongings and given up their jobs in anticipation of emigrating. New they face winter, jobless, fundless, ragged and without houshold goods or homes.
They issued an appeal today for intervention by the Jewish Agency with British authorities in Palestine and with the British representatives here.

What is the purpose in life for those with the horoscope Gemini?
Basically I would like to know what the symbol of "Gemini" means, or what this horoscope means basically.
Suggestion by tgedhsfgd
I think you have the wrong definition of horoscope.
Suggestion by Mr.Red-E
2 Jews who live for money.
Suggestion by I see you…
There are many purposes I'm sure, and it tends to differentiate a bit for everyone. I do find however that Gemini's are best at teaching, counseling, being religious leaders etc. We're at our best when we give of ourselves in this manner.
In addition, Gemini's may be a test for (just about) everyone else. It seems that we're pretty hard to understand…
It's the sign of twins (two people), representing two sides of a coin or as some say dual personalities. But it isn't really that we have different personalities. It's more about being open to different or opposing viewpoints. We can see both sides of a given issue but that doesn't mean that we don't have our (strong) convictions, especially as we mature.
We're air signs so people say that we are unemotional, blah, blah… and it's true that many of us are very deep thinkers, but many of us are very deep feeling as well…
Add your own answer in the comments!
What sign do you usually find yourself attracted to over and over again?
Also whats your sign?
Suggestion by meow
Pisces and Leo, unfortunately. I'm trying to stray away from that now though.
Suggestion by yodo
I always find myself attracted to Aries all the time!! But they always lose interest in me so fast or leave me if i don't do what they and want from me. I'm a Cancer. Aries have sort of a take it or leave it about them and won't change who they are for anyone while i think Cancers will change a bit for a relationship to work always. I don't know why i'm so attracted to them maybe it's because they're up front and get to the point and are honest and blunt. Idk.
Suggestion by Efi A
Cancer..All the time(they don't act like the typical one's on the outside though,well they actual do ..u know they hid their inner cancers.)..Oh and Scorpio's.
What do you think? Answer below!

Oops! Something is "Technically" wrong…
Hey Guy's and Gal's,
It's been a while since we've heard anything main stream about Twitter, but over the past few weeks, since the rollout of the new app, "Twitter Places" Twitter has found, more times than not, that trying to keep up with "The Jones" or trying to "Stay Ahead of The Curve" has put another twist in the mix.
And that twist is "Servability" ok, maybe that's not quite the right word, but lately, at least from a users perspective, when they go to Twitter to post a tweet or reply to a friends tweet, they get the "Oops something is technically wrong message".
Now I don't know about you, but being a business owner, the "Oops!" just doesn't cut it, when you're up against a schedule and your time is very important.
You can have all the Twitter Tools, Tips and resources to help make your marketing efforts work together for the benefit of yourself and your followers, but if Twitter is down, then all the other apps are too.
So, what do you do when Twitter is down, and the "Fail Whale" swims into your harbor?
I know many of you have more than one marketing avenue in the mix, so what do you do when you have all these social media networks all tied together and one of those sites goes down?
What do you have in your arsenal that is tried, tested and approved to never let you down?
Until next time.
Have a wonderful day,
