By any official or unofficial method of measurement, summer is here in the Northern Hemisphere. And to salute the return of hot (or hotter—hi Phoenix) weather, here are some articles to help you dress, eat, and date better this year.
Dress Up (or Down) for the Weather
There's nothing like grabbing that old favorite t-shirt (just a few little holes), the calf-length jean shorts and a pair of flip-flops and hitting the bars with the guys, right? Funny how the women you meet all seem to have a phone number of 555-1212, huh?
- Board Shorts to Speedos: What to Wear When is your bible for summer shorts. If you don't see them on this list, you probably don't want to wear them.
- Flip-Flops to Boat Shoes: Summer Footwear addresses the cornucopia of light and cool (in more ways than one) footwear available for summer.
- Summer Suits: If New Yorkers Can Do It… want to do it up right for work, or senior photo day? Here are a few tips.
Grillin' and Chillin'
Is that lighter fluid I smell? If so, why? Get yourself a damn charcoal chimney already, and then make sure you're using the grill right, and complementing your meat with a tasty, healthy, cool salad.
- Summer Salads: Real Men Blah, Blah, Blah has three important tips for a salad even a carnivore can enjoy, and some great recipe links.
- 101 Reasons That Salads Are Awesome reminds you that you aren't restricted to opening a bag and dousing the contents in ranch dressing. With a few veggies and a few ready staples you can be the hit of the BBQ party with a great salad no one's tasted before.
- Man Skills: Grill a Perfect Steak should be self-explanatory. If you haven't read this yet, you don't like meat.
Summer Survival
It's not all fun and games when the weather gets hot. Keep yourself safe and healthy, and live to skinny-dip another day.
- How to Hydrate is the complete why and how of keeping your body moist on the inside, because by the time you get thirsty you're already late on the hydration train.
- How to Perform 14 Basic Skills, Part 2 includes "Learn the Breaststroke," and advice to help you learn how to swim. This is a basic survival skill everyone should know.
Look Great
You want that beach body? Well, time's a-wastin'. If you haven't already subscribed to receive your free Starter Workout, you can find some basic help here:
- A Simple Starter Workout is the original workout plan I happen to be using again right now to get into fighting trim. You can too.
- No-Weights Workout offers some easy moves you can do outside. Just don't hog the kids' jungle gym for too long, okay?
Get a Date
Yes, the ladies seem to look even prettier in their summer clothes. No, it's no more difficult to talk to them than it was when they looked like Eskimos. If you're not using my online dating book (available free), at least forearm yourself with a few tips.
- What Do You Say to a Girl? You're walking on the beach with a buddy, and the girl of your dreams is coming right toward you. Do you start with a firm, "Hi," and then confidently move on to an intriguing question for her, or devolve into a puddle of jelly? I can help you there.
The National Pastime
If you're absolutely stuck for something to do, and living in America, there's probably a ballpark five minutes away. And whether you want to go nuts for your favorite player or kick back in the sun with a brew and some conversation (not too loud), the ballyard is an excellent place to do it.
- Take Yourself Out to the Ballgame will help you if you decide only the big-leagues will do (try Triple-A instead, trust me) you can navigate the minefield of consumerism that is a major league ballpark with your credit rating intact.
Whatever you do this summer, be safe, calm and confident. Have fun out there.

UCC or Restatement for this scenario?
Would you apply the UCC or the Restatement to the following scenario:
"Blaine, the owner of a tract of vacant land in a newly designated attraction site, contracted with Danaya, a reputable contractor, to design and build a triple-decker Mardi Gras float that would serve as a year-round tourist attraction...[cost to design and build $2 M ]....Because of the design of the float and the creative fixtures increasing its weight load, the plans called for the foundation's base to be about 20 feet deep. Halfway through the excavation, she realized that an underground water flow went through the soil at one corner....."
Would I apply the UCC or the Restatement to this and why?
Thanks in advance!!!
This is a mixed contract, so you'll want to determine if it's predominantly for goods or services. Unless there are more facts that have been excluded, it's impossible to determine from the fact that the contract was for $2M. Therefore, you'll likely want to analyze the problem using both the UCC and CL.
Because it is a non-movable good (i.e. it is fixed into the ground, a stationary structure) would it then not be part of the UCC?
"Goods" means all things that are movable at the time of identification to a contract for sale. The raw materials required to build this thing are movable, right? This contract involves goods and services, which upon completion of the project will result in a non-movable structure.
You'll get more points if you identify issues rather than just skipping pass them and concluding this is a service contract. In the end, it likely is a service contract. But, again, you don't want to be too conclusory in your response. Issue spotting is not just about spotting solvable issues, but also spotting those that aren't so easily answered.
With that said, I don't think you'd want to be belabor the UCC argument. This problem is best answered by applying common law principles.

Williams stood up to Schwarzenegger
Olivia Williams has revealed she debated politics with Arnold Schwarzenegger when they worked together on action movie Sabotage.
The Anna Karenina star admitted her left-wing politics clashed with those of the conservative former Governor of California, but she wasn't afraid to argue with the Terminator.
Olivia insisted: "He and I got on very well. I went in there with a lot of left-wing politics and feminist and green soap boxes to stand on, and he met me on the soap box and we had some very good conversations.
"Yes, we exchanged a couple of strongly held views, but we got on very well."
The British actress - who voices the Queen in new animation Justin And The Knights Of Valour - also recently worked with director David Cronenberg on his new film Map To The Stars, also starring Robert Pattinson and Mia Wasikowska.
Olivia said of Cronenberg: "You'd think from his body of work that he might be a slightly creepy person who you wouldn't want to spend a lot of time with... but he's the nicest man in the world. Funny, ironic, very gentle... his set was a beautiful place to work. It was very creative, and sort of like a Zen monastery - after most films set having people shouting, 'We've got to get the light', and, 'Try that again!'
"He knows exactly what he wants and I really liked him very much."

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger fancies signing two new strikers.
The Mirror says Wenger made tentative enquiries about the availability of number one target, Bordeaux striker Marouane Chamakh, but has been told that there is no chance of him leaving in January.
But Wenger remains confident of signing the Moroccan on a Bosman-style free transfer next summer after his contract with Bordeaux runs out. Chamakh is keen on Arsenal ahead of interest from Everton and Tottenham.
But Wenger is still considering signing a striker in January to boost his options with Robin van Persie and Nicklas Bendtner out injured and Eduardo out of form.
Wenger's first option is Wolfsburg's Edin Dzeko but the German club's £20m asking price and interest from AC Milan is a major stumbling block. Toulouse forward Andre-Pierre Gignac also appeals.

One of the many effects the lockout has is on injured players like Trevor Scott who can no longer deal with team trainers or doctors. Scott started 10 games last season before tearing his ACL, and the lockout has cut short the linebacker/defensive end's rehab time with the Raiders.
"It's kind of been some BS, the fact that I've been doing my own rehab and not allowed to talk to trainers," Scott told former teammate Jay Richardson, who is doing a radio show ("The JRich Report") with Chuck Carroll on the forthcoming EYES Radio Network. "I've been putting my faith and my trust elsewhere to the guys rehabbing me now. It just kind of sucks, the whole thing."
Scott, 26, has a year left on his contract. While he, like many of his teammates, was surprised to see coach Tom Cable get fired (fired, contract not renewed, to-may-toe, tow-ma-toe), Scott is excited by the energy that former offensive coordinator and new coach Hue Jackson brings.
"I think Hue Jackson getting hired as a head coach is a huge step forward," Scott said. "It kind of stinks seeing coach Cable go … he did nothing but go up every single year, so best wishes to him, but I feel like Hue Jackson is going to take that next step to where we were and he's going to take us to where we want to go and that is to win the AFC Championship and then win the Super Bowl."
Here is the link to the audio for Richardson's and Carroll's show — which launches on July 4. I am exoecting big things out of these two guys.

Farm Bill Conservation Plan Facing Cuts
Argus Leader, Faith Bremner
Published September 10, 2008
Senate Democrats are about to renege on an earlier plan to give more money to programs that pay farmers and ranchers to protect wildlife habitat and water quality, a spokesman for the Environmental Working Group said Tuesday.
The Senate Appropriations Committee in July approved legislation that next year would cut 8 percent of the funding that Congress authorized for farm bill conservation programs a month earlier, EWG Midwest Vice President Craig Cox said.
Meanwhile, the bill would not cut spending on farm subsidies, which go mostly to the nation's wealthiest farmers, Cox said.
"These cuts to conservation are coming at a very, very bad time," Cox said. "The commodity price boom and federal laws pushing ethanol are driving producers to bring new land into production and intensify production on existing acres. The USDA predicts we're set to lose some 12 million acres of (Conservation Reserve Program) ground by 2010."
South Dakota outdoor writer and TV and radio host Tony Dean said the shortfall could hurt the state's $200 million-a-year pheasant hunting industry.
Last year, 40,000 farmers across the country were turned away from U.S. Department of Agriculture conservation programs because there wasn't enough money in the budget to include them, Dean said.
"What I'm probably most upset about, while this has been a Republican tactic in years past, in the Senate it's Democrats (who are) working behind the scenes to cut these conservation programs and it's very disgusting," Dean said.
The Environmental Working Group has long been a critic of farm bill programs.
According to the organization, the Republican- controlled Congress, from 2002 to 2007, shorted conservation programs 7 percent of the funding authorized in the 2002 farm bill.
Legislation authorizing federal expenditures doesn't guarantee that Congress will appropriate the money later, especially when unforeseen expenses arise. That's what happened in the case of farm bill conservation programs, said a spokesman for Sen. Herb Kohl, D-Wis., chairman of the Appropriations Committee's agricultural subcommittee.
Lawmakers are proposing the cuts because they had to spend more money than anticipated on, among other things, farm bill food programs that help women, infants and poor people, Kohl spokesman Rohit Mahajan said.
"Sen. Kohl has been a longtime champion of conservation programs, but the subcommittee was severely limited by rising food prices and the need to keep initiatives, such as WIC (Women, Infants and Children), and international food aid, whole," Mahajan said. "WIC, for example, went up $1 billion in one year from the previous year."
South Dakota Sen. Tim Johnson, who sits on Kohl's subcommittee, does not favor cutting conservation programs to pay for the shortfalls, said his spokeswoman Julianne Fisher.
Instead, subsidy payments should be lowered from the new $750,000 cap to something closer to the $250,000 cap Johnson supports, Fisher said.
"He'll be working with Chairman (Robert) Byrd to find ways to fund (the conservation programs)," Fisher said. "One of the best ways would be (lower) payment caps."

text: This is a jaw-droppingly bizarre movie from Korea that mixes scenes of gruesome torture and violence with comedy and heartbreaking profundity. Perhaps as a result of too many amphetamines and violent incidents in his past, beekeeper Lee Byeong Gu (Sin Ha-Gyun) has become convinced that an unscrupulous business tycoon (Kan Man-Shik) is actually an alien from the planet Andromeda. Lee's frumpy acrobat girlfriend (Hwang Jung-Min) helps him abduct the "alien" and torture him into confessing. Meanwhile, a hangdog detective is following a trail leading to Lee's hideout high in the mountains. Let the timid be warned: this is not the antipollution comedy that the title might indicate. Man's inhumanity to man is certainly depicted--as in events like Korea's 1980 Kwangju riots--but there's more going on here than any one summation could describe: bees attack, a pet dog named Earth dines on human remains, alternate theories of evolution are posited (i.e. Noah's Ark was a deep submarine carrying DNA samples); an entire lifetime of films, political turmoil, anime and manga are boiled down and distilled into one profound, multi-textual allegory. Adventurous viewers will be in for one hell of a ride, as this film dares go where few have gone before, yet it does so with heart and intellect to match its wicked humor and headlong momentum.

How does personal branding "translate" around the globe in other cultures?
Searching Around the World: Culturally customizing your SEO efforts
Have you tried search engine optimization, or SEO, yet? This clever "trick" gives you more visibility by moving you to the top of search engine results. However, it takes a bit of work—and if you are an international business reaching out to a global market, it can be even harder. Although the process can be intricate and complicated, the key to SEO lies in using the right keywords. And when you market to more than one culture, this can get tricky.
"Napkin" or "serviette"? "Sneakers" or "trainers"? "Sandwich press" or "toastie maker"? Your word preference depends on your cultural background. These questions represent only a small number of the differences in identifiers that you will find in the English language for things that are the same. How many times have you listened to someone speak the same language as you, only to find yourself lost and confused because you could not understand his or her dialect? Remember that individual words are central to SEO. So, when using it to increase your visibility internationally, be careful to pay attention to and account for any differences in word preference that exist between cultures.
Cultural values and the search engine. A less obvious problem arises when using SEO to market your brand internationally. You probably already know that different cultures place value on different things in the professional world. For example, in the U.S., boasting about our abilities is an accepted form of advertising; however, this practice is frowned upon in many cultures. So, to make yourself look good using SEO in the global marketplace, you have to focus on other features in order to appeal to international clientele. Depending on their cultural background, prospective clients will oftentimes conduct a search for a product or service using keywords that highlight unique characteristics they value. Again, be careful to keep this in mind. Without special attention being paid to the subtle cultural differences in your international market, even the best attempts at SEO will only work to promote your business in your home country.
Marcela Jenney-Reyes, MBA is a global marketing expert, business coach and consultant with over 20 years of experience. Her clients include language service providers, entrepreneurs and business professionals from culturally diverse backgrounds.

ROCKWALL (WFAA) -- When he took the stage in the early hours of Wednesday morning to address the country for the first time as President-Elect, Donald Trump broadly spoke about his goals once he took the oval office including a nod to Veterans.
"We will also, finally, take care of our great veterans who have been so loyal and I have gotten to know so many over this 18-month journey," said Trump. "The time I spent with them during this campaign has been one of my greatest honors."
The comment came just days before Veterans' Day and for area veterans who hope to receive better care and appreciation year around, Trump's words are met with both hope and skepticism.
"We have heard this before," said Marine veteran Jerry Troxler. "We are hopeful Donald Trump will follow through on his promises."
Veterans Affairs hospitals have been plagued with problems and a system forcing vets to often must wait long periods of time to receive needed treatment. Glenn Atterberry served from 1959-1964 and until things change, he sees Trump's promises as empty.
"I do not think he is going to do it," he said. "I do not think he said anything about that during the campaign other than he knows more than the admirals and generals."
In October, Trump laid out his priorities for the first 100 days in the White House should he be elected. One of the outlined actions was "Restoring National Security Act" and contained language providing Veterans with the chance to get public VA treatment or go to a private doctor of their choosing.
Similar actions and policies have been implemented before only to spring more leaks in the system. However, Janice Willis-Johnson, a veteran of the Navy nurse corps during Vietnam said she thinks Trump's unique candidacy will yield a unique result for Veterans whereas so many efforts before have failed.
"I heard him speak and we can always have hope," she said. "He is a different sort and maybe he will do a better job than some have in the past."

How good are our local healthcare services?
A public consultation event is being held in Buckingham on Wednesday.
Bucks Healthcare NHS Trust has been running a series of public conversations across the county about its hospital and community healthcare services, called the Big Conversation.
And the last meeting in the series takes place at Buckingham Community Centre from 2pm to 4.30pm on Wednesday, February 5.
It's an opportunity to hear how the NHS trust is improving the quality of care and share your views on what else it could do to improve the patient experience.
Local people are being asked about their personal experiences of being treated or cared for by Bucks Healthcare NHS Trust.
Prof Lynne Swiatczak, the trust's chief nurse and director of patient care standards, said: "Through our Big Conversation events and feedback online, we've heard from many patients and carers who have shared their views and experiences of care in Bucks.
"We heard how many people felt they received good clinical care but they felt we needed to make improvements to our administrative processes.
"Some patients were disappointed that sometimes our support staff's approach was less welcoming.
"As a result, we are now looking at piloting training for our reception and administrative staff so that all aspects of care are truly patient centred, from the moment each patient arrives at hospital."
To book a place at the event, call Dee Irvine 01494 734953 or email email@example.com

The rooftop restaurent cooks some very delicious meals. Overall, we enjoyed staying there and recommend it highly.
Krishna Palace was the nicest hotel we saw in India.Cleen, very quiet and the staff was friendly and allways helpful. The restaurant at the roof was also very pleasant and the food was nice. I wish I can come back
Krishna Palace was a very nice place to stay. It is clean, quiet and has a very helpful staff. The one thing that I appreciated about Krishna Palace is that my arrival was at 4:30 AM and they were very gracious and helpful with this. It is close to the train and bus stations in a very quiet upscale neighborhood. Would recommend this to anyone.
Krishna Palace was a very relaxing and, for the price range, beautiful, hotel. Our room was quiet, tastefull decorated and very clean.
All the staff were friendly and attentive without being too intrusive or over the top, including the owners and restaurant staff.
The food was very good quality without relying on excessive butter or ghee and reasonably priced, although portion sizes tended to be on the small side.
The hotel was not ideally situated, although close enough to the station and being further out it was protected from constant horns and traffic noise.
Krishna Palace is a great hotel, not far from the trainstation (15 minute walk). The staff are very friendly and helpful and the rooms are spacious, clean and the wifi is excellent (100 Rs per 24 hour). We ate a few times at the rooftop restaurant and it was great and very cheap! Overall, this has been a really nice stay and we would definitely recommend the hotel to anyone who doesn't want to stay in the (noisy) city centre.
Stayed here for 2 nights at the end of feb 2011, and was blown away by it, its such a lovely place and spotlessly clean and efficient. i booked a single room but for the first night they put me in a double at no extra charge! but even the room i was meant to have was far from pokey! still the standards were excellent. my only critisism is that the restaurant on the rooftop is a little expensive, but the food's certainly tasty!
Unfortunately its a little out of the way from the main sight of the city, but close to the train station and they offer free pickup! so all in all a good place to stay, and for what they offer its well priced too!
My stay at Krishna palace was very enjoyable. I had booked online after reading positive reviews. The hotel staff are really friendly and helpful. I had a room on the 4th floor (penthouse), with a beautiful view of the city. I wish I had more time in Jaipur! The staff helped me with my bookings for Jodhpur. They even stored my luggage at no charge for the day and drove me to the bus depot at 11pm. The rooftop restaurant was lovely, the service was friendly, and the food was great. I would highly recommend it.
A lovely quiet haven in a bustling city. We especially enjoyed the rooftop restaurant which had great food at reasonable prices and quick service. Would definitely stay here again.
This was truly a little palace of a guest house. It was very very clean with a roof top restaurant which serves tasty and inexpensive food and a lovely front garden. The family who runs this place is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommendable. Excellent place to stay in Jaipur.
Great place to stay. This is a beautiful heritage building with very clean rooms and hot showers. Rooms have good screens on windows to keep bugs out which is good in the Jaipur heat. Good food to have on the roof top restaurant or in the garden. Is a very nice place to chill out at the end of the day or while waiting for your next transport. Thanks for the lovely stay.

Spring Cleanout? Beware of Seasonal Scams
After a polar-vortexing bear of a winter, spring has sprung (finally!) – at least according to the calendar. So now's the time to prepare for scammers who spring into action, trying these perennial ploys: Home Repair Scams They may promise deals on asphalt paving, roof work or other "needed repairs" they happen to spot from their pickups or by going door to door. But beware of any "con"-tractors who then request upfront payment under the guise of having to buy materials; …

Before she became the shimmering voice of Canadian indie heroes Stars, Amy Millan lived with members of bluegrass band Crazy Strings and it's her old roommates' influence - and presence - that shines through her debut solo album. Her themes of love, loss and loneliness, are nothing new, and nor are the songs, written between 1990 and 2000.
But Millan has never sounded more enchanting or as exposed, oozing resignation as she relinquishes her grip in Losing You, woozily sinking to the bottom of a glass in Pour Me Up. The warm bluegrass of Blue in Your Eye sounds like a Be Good Tanyas gem, while the rocky sensuality of Skinny Boy stems from her day job.
Pop fans will think it's a country album, country purists will deem it pop and contributions from friends in both Stars and Broken Social Scene adds a conflicting rock slant. What's not in doubt is that Millan makes it work.

Riding again this morning, and it was such a beautiful day that Hannah's instructor took the girls out for a ride in the woods. Hannah was very happy!
Then afterwards, on the way back through town to the train station, Hannah spent her pocket money on a new cat Beanie Boo. She loves those funny little creatures.

Ok so I spent a short time making this survey, and setting up a form to handle sending invites for the survey out to people (to be used in house). During production it was working fine, now the emails are not showing up in our in-boxes. The mail function is still returning true, so I'm unsure of why its not showing up. None of the code has changed, and our development environment is on the exact same server as our production environment, so ini settings are all the same as well. Below is a snippet of the code, and attached is the entire file.
As I said, it was working perfectly while I was testing it, now its like the emails aren't sending, or for some reason just aren't making it to our inbox (yes we've checked our spam box as well)PHP Code:
// Constant email settings.
$sub = '--- Satisfaction Survey Invite';
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0'. PHP_EOL;
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'. PHP_EOL;
$headers .= 'FROM: ---@---.com'. PHP_EOL;
// Base SQL for multiple insert
$sql = 'INSERT INTO survey_invites (id_invite,invite_email,invite_token) VALUES ';
foreach( $emails as $info ) {
$token = saltyhash($info['email']);
// Send mail message to each recipient
$to = $info['email'];
$msg = buildmsg($info['name'],$token,$info['type']);
if( mail($to,$sub,$msg,$headers) )
$content .= 'Message to '. $info['name'] .' sent successfully.

// Build SQL to insert email/token for validation later.

Artists turn trash into sculpture
Milwaukie artist Owen Premore explores questions about found objects and the burden of nostalgia, in GLEAN, an environmental art exhibit at Disjecta in Portland. An opening reception is at 6 p.m. Friday, Aug. 16, and the show will be up through Sunday, Sept. 8.
Hes not the only one vying for the chance to pick through a heap of trash to find unexpected inspiration for accidental art. The goal of the GLEAN show is to prompt people to think about their consumption habits, inspire new ways of conserving resources, and support the arts and environment.
I also dont feel comfortable buying new materials like plastics and metals with such a plentiful supply of salvageable materials available that I can make use of, Premore said. Repurposed objects have evidence of their original function, which I enjoy exploiting in juxtaposition to the new role I assign to the object.
Residents and businesses in the Portland area generate more than 2.1 million tons of waste and recyclables each year enough to fill the Rose Garden arena 15 times over. Tapping into the creative genius of local artists, GLEAN shows people how to repurpose their trash.
The project is a public, private, nonprofit partnership. Metro, the regional government that guides the regions garbage and recycling system teamed up with Recology, an employee-owned company that manages resource recovery facilities, and Cracked Pots, a nonprofit environmental arts group that manages the program.
GLEAN takes its inspiration from Recology San Franciscos artist-in-residence program. Se (detail, right) lect pieces from that program are on exhibit at the San Francisco International Airport through October.
Earlier this year, a jury of arts and environmental professionals selected five local artists to participate in the 2013 show. They are given a stipend, six months of scavenging privileges, and access to the regions discards dropped off at the Metro Central Transfer Station in Northwest Portland. This years GLEAN artists include Kim Lakin, Eric Rosewall, Christopher Wagner and Vicki Wilson.
The group includes an instructor at area schools, the apprentice of a Japanese master carver, and a former designer with Michael Currys company who creates live-performance oriented characters and productions seen by worldwide audiences. GLEAN artists have been in solo and group shows locally, nationally and internationally.
Their media and styles range from fiber and textile art to graphic design and architecture, wood carvings and metal sculpture to cast figures in brick, cement, broken auto glass and more. They use two- and three-dimensional forms for works and environments that are interactive, kinetic and auditory.
Fellow artist Chris Wagner expresses surprise about the number of nails he removes from a pile of old-growth Douglas fir boards. Nearly giving up on bright orange construction fencing that sat idle in her studio for weeks, creativity kicks in for Kim Lakin who learns not to be too quick to discard anything. It takes time for materials to become familiar enough for me to start working with them.

CFA Executive Director for Operational Training and Volunteerism, Lex de Man, said the building of the facility had been a joint initiative between CFA, SES and government who work in partnership to provide vital services to the local community.
"Improved meeting and training facilities will streamline and enhance an already strong relationship between both organisations, as well as with the community," he said.
Mr de Man added a dedicated Divisional Command Centre will ensure Kinglake is well-prepared to deal with any emergency.
"I am confident that this new facility will see Kinglake CFA and SES volunteers continue to protect lives and properties for many more years to come."
SES Chief Executive Officer Mary Barry said it was a pleasure to see Kinglake SES and CFA settle into the new facility which will provide extra space, improved meeting and training facilities and an area for both emergency services to house all of their vehicles under the same roof.
"I would like to congratulate and thank everyone involved in the development of this great new facility, which highly reflects the professionalism of both the SES unit and CFA brigade," she said.
The Kinglake SES unit lost both its building and response vehicles in the February 2009 bushfires.
"Despite the loss, Kinglake has remained a very active unit, responding to many local emergencies as well as assisting in major operations such as the North East Floods in March and the 2011 Christmas Day Storms in Melbourne," she said.
"The community of Kinglake is still rebuilding. I believe this facility will help that process by providing the ideal space to maximise future emergency response capabilities offered to the community."

More than three weeks after Libya's rebels killed Muammar Gaddafi, arms experts say the task of finding and securing the mountain of weaponry abandoned by Gaddafi's forces in their final rout has been complicated by a lack of international funding and coordination, as well as conflicting priorities among Western and African governments about which weapons pose the biggest threat.
While U.S. and European officials have sounded the alarm about the threat posted to airliners by looted surface-to-air missiles, arms experts say other kinds of weaponry that may prove far more damaging are receiving much less attention. "I don't think anybody genuinely has any idea of full scale of the problem, because nobody has had a chance to look at it across the country, and we don't have the assets to do it," says Max Dyck, Libya program manager for the U.N.'s Joint Mine Action Coordination Team. The group is charged with disabling thousands of land mines, and securing large stockpiles of ammunition. The U.S. government has offered $40 million to help secure weapons stockpiles, while Canada has pledged $10 million but those amounts fall far short of what's needed, according to Dyck.
Once U.N. sanctions were lifted in 2003, Gaddafi spent billions on refurbishing a huge arsenal, making Libya a prized client for Western defense contractors. When the revolt began last February, French engineers had been in Tripoli training Gaddafi's military in how to use MILAN anti-tank missiles sold to Libya by France; French jets then spent the next eight months helping to destroying them.
The regime's collapse has seen huge quantities of arms looted from abandoned warehouses, and smuggled across Libya's borders. Last week the president of neighboring Niger, Mahamadou Issoufou, said his forces had killed six arms smugglers on Libya's border in early November, in the fourth such clash since February. He warned that Libya's looted weapons were "being disseminated all over the region," with al-Qaeda operatives among the recipients. Pieter Wezeman, arms-trade analyst for the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) says Libyan weapons are likely to reach long-established insurgent groups in Mali and Chad. "These countries don't have the capacity to control the borders and stop the weapons flows," he says.
But the threat posed by looted weaponry is equally serious inside Libya. Shortly after Gaddafi's death, Human Rights Watch uncovered 70 bunkers south of Sirte containing thousands of guided and unguided surface-to-air weapons, artillery and mortar rounds, and other ammunition and arms. Libya's interim government has done little to secure those large stockpiles since then, according to Human Rights Watch emergencies director Peter Bouckaert. "We have seen a lot of talk and promises," Bouckaert told TIME on Monday. "But there is a lack of capacity and control of the Libyan authorities over the groups which did the fighting."
The scale of the problem was underlined on Monday, when British Prime Minister David Cameron said Libyan authorities had found two stores of chemical weapons, previously unknown to Western governments to which Gaddafi claimed to have had declared all his stockpiles, under the deal that ended U.N. sanctions. It's unclear why these weapons were never used against the rebellion.
Another growing concern is land mines: Some were used against rebel forces in eastern Libya this year, but arms experts believe millions more could remain buried across a country three times the size of Texas including about 2 million mines believed to have been laid along the border with Chad during Libya's war with that country in the 1980s. Thousands more may have been looted from the old regime's stockpiles. Days after rebels stormed into Tripoli on Aug. 20, Dyck and others received emails from arms brokers offering to sell 100,000 looted land mines at $290 a piece. Dyck says the emails were forwarded to the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security, which is now investigating the case.
Then there are the Kalashnikovs: In his final years, Gaddafi bought about 100,000 rifles from Ukraine, and in 2008 negotiated with China to buy 500,000 more, according to SIPRI; it's not known how many rifles China delivered before the war began and the U.N. Security Council imposed an arms embargo.
Western governments have followed their own priorities in responding to the challenge of Libya's looted arms. The U.S. State Dept. has contracted the security company DynCorp International to help track missing surface-to-air missiles, which Washington fears could enable terror attacks on civilian aviation throughout North Africa. Gaddafi is believed to have acquired about 20,000 Russian-made SAMs, including Strella missiles purchased during the 1970s and 1980s, and Igla missiles bought in 2010.
But focusing resources narrowly on the missing SAMs may be missing the danger of the potential of the rest of the weapons stocks to arm a future insurgency. Bouckaert says that when he recently briefed representatives of Dyncorp in Tripoli, "their attention dropped to zero when I moved on to other weapons."
Despite the anxiety over the SAMs, it's not clear whether they actually work, says James O'Halloran, editor of Jane's Land-Based Air Defense, a specialist publication. Those delivered during the 1970s and 1980s could well have expired. "The solid propellant which causes the thing to fly will by now be a long, long way out of date," he explains. He also doubts that terror groups could successfully deploy the newer anti-aircraft missiles. After examining videos and logs of the weapons uncovered since August, O'Halloran believes most lack essential components, and are unlikely to have been smuggled with all the parts required to operate them the grip stock firing mechanism and the battery that can be used only once and which remains charged only for 30 to 40 seconds after being activated. "The missile on its own is useless," says O'Halloran, who believes few grip stocks have been looted. If so, "the most you can do with [such] a missile is hit someone over the head."

In 1959, the local Fraternal Order of Eagles donated a granite monument depicting the Ten Commandments to the City of Everett, which placed the monument in front of City Hall. Several ministers participated in and officiated at the monument's unveiling ceremony. The monument has remained in the same place since the unveiling, but the building now houses Everett's police department. After trying unsuccessfully to negotiate removal of the monument, AU filed suit in federal court in July 2003, raising federal and state constitutional claims. In the summer of 2004, the parties filed and briefed cross-motions for summary judgment. After the U.S. Supreme Court decided two cases concerning governmental displays of the Ten Commandments (McCreary County v. ACLU and Van Orden v. Perry), the court sought supplemental briefing on the decisions. Our brief argued that the McCreary and Van Orden decisions lent support to Plaintiff's position. But the court disagreed, ruling that the monument was permissible under Van Orden. In early October 2005, we appealed that decision. In March 2008, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued an opinion upholding the district court's decision. Ruling that Van Orden controlled the case, the court of appeals held that the monument was constitutional because (a) it had a secular purpose, (b) neighboring monuments rendered the display's context secular, and (c) the monument had been displayed for decades without causing religious divisiveness in the community. In June 2008, the court denied a petition for rehearing. We decided not to seek review by the U.S. Supreme Court.

A Los Angeles Superior Court judge or commissioner is expected to first hear the case against Mayor Oscar Hernandez, 63; Vice Mayor Teresa Jacobo, 53; City Councilman George Mirabal, 61, and former councilmen Luis Artiga, 49; George Cole, 61; and Victor Bello, 52.
The next case to be heard involves former Bell City Manager Robert Rizzo, 57; former Assistant City Manager Angela Spaccia, 52; and additional charges against Hernandez and Artiga.
Rizzo is also charged with conflict of interest and misappropriation of records in a separate case.
The eight were arrested Sept. 21 in connection with allegations that they bilked taxpayers out of roughly $5.5 million through hefty salaries, benefits and illicit loans of public money.
The eight have pleaded not guilty, and all but Bello have been freed on bail.

Kiefer Sutherland Arrested For DUI in West Hollywoodby Free Britney at . Comments
And here we thought Jack Bauer was untouchable. And not stupid.
After the summer of useless socialites being arrested and occasionally put behind bars for their asinine traffic offenses, Kiefer Sutherland is proving that celebrities can be pulled over and incarcerated with equal opportunity.
According to TMZ, Sutherland was arrested on suspicion of DUI Monday night in West Hollywood. This is the second DUI in five years for Sutherland meaning that if convicted, he will serve a mandatory five days in jail.
Kiefer Sutherland was pulled over around 1:35 a.m., making an illegal U-turn. When tested for alcohol, he allegedly blew twice the legal driving limit of .08.
Police arrested the man behind the invincible Jack Bauer for misdemeanor DUI, booked him at 4:09 a.m. and released him at 5:42 a.m. on $25,000 bail.
Prior to being arrested, Sutherland attended the FOX Fall Eco-Casino party at Area nightclub in West Hollywood. Us Weekly spotted the actor drinking dark beer and smoking heavily while holding court with FOX executives.
Kiefer Sutherland is scheduled to appear in court on October 16. Hopefully on the same day as Britney Spears, so as to take the attention off him.

Call (888) 651-9785
I highly recommend this tour! Our guide Minnie was wonderful and full of information. Excellent tour of Hanoi.
We toured the old quarter and really got insights into how people live. Our guide was excellent. We ended with a bowl of pho at the first actual store set up to sell it. Fascinating.
I enjoyed the tour and learned a tremendous amount from my guide. The booking details need to be updated as the puppet show times are in the afternoon so therefore cannot be included in the morning tour and in addition the electric car tour was not included.
Stefan G Canada
Informative tour. Electric cars were fun for travel in the traffic. Guide was very knowledgeable.
Sandra E Australia
This was an excellent tour. Tony, our tour guide was informative and helpful. We appreciated his readiness to take photos for us (we left our camera at the hotel) and for forwarding the photos to us in Melbourne. The visit to the Thu Huong Lacquerware workshop was the highlight.
Our guide was on time (early in fact) and was very knowledgeable. Was happy to adapt to suit us and he made sure the trip went smoothly at a pace we liked. Good intro and water puppet show was enjoyable.
We took this tour as an introduction to Hanoi on the first day of our holiday and were very glad we did. Finding your way around a new city can be daunting, particularly after 24 hours of travel with not too much sleep! The guide was very good and spoke good English. There were a couple of hiccups - water puppet theatre not booked and electric car tour not booked. The guide spoke to his office and both were resolved. Our experience of guides in Vietnam and Cambodia was mixed, but this young man was one of the best. Provided a lot of information about Vietnam as well as the sites we toured. Never boring. At £75 perhaps a little expensive for a half day tour?
Extremely overpriced for the rushed tour and not including the main Mossolium which closes at 11am! I was unable to do the electric car tour as too rushed and the cars were full which was unacceptable for the price paid!
Great sightseeing in the electric car but we really didn't see much of the city
We did not enjoy our tour. Our tour guide arrived 20 minutes late. We started the electric car tour around 2:20pm on a very hot day. It was totally not comfortable and enjoyable. We did not learn much from our tour guide on the cultural and historical side of the Old Quarter. He showed us the silk market , the candy market, fruit market and grocery store while waiting for the water puppet show to start. He took us to the Thang Long Water Puppet Show after the side tour and got us seats but did not explain what the show was all about as
the laungage spoken was in all Vietnamese. Our tour guide did not also personally bring us back to the Sofitel Metropole Legend Hanoi Hotel but got us instead a taxi to bring us to our hotel. We paid 20Vnd extra for the taxi. We won't recommend this tour to anyone.
Is quite bad, no instruction on when and where to meet until the night before. I have to call the local agency to confirm on the time and place to meet. The tour guide is ok but we took taxi to commute between the sites. Kind of funny to not have transport for such private tour. At 90 for 4 hours tour without vehicle, on taxi, this is not value for money at all, especially in places like Hanoi
I am completely disappointed with the tour. Absolutely overprice for what you do/see. I paid for 5 hour and hour guide after 3 hours decided that we have already seen everything so he wanted to leave us at the hotel. I asked to see something else so he took us to a market. The place for the noodles is not to the standard of a 65 dollars tour, so when I told the guide that we didn't want to go he gave me 4 dollars back.
I def not recommend this tour.
This was not a good tour and it was not worth the money the guide did show us the pagoda on the list .

Dota do require skill and quite a bit off it. Teamfights are down to timings and coordination, playing against other heroes is down to knowledge about them, pushing is down to coordination.
If you play late game protos your main army might have Vortex, storm and guardian shields as spells and you have to worry about splitting, position, keeping up production, maybe drop harassing and drop microing units. A tech switch from your opponent needs to be immediately answered and his harass squashed. It's really not comparable. SC 2 is notorious for being hard to play and that's also why its following is smaller.
MOBA games are more beginner friendly and thus have larger communities and viewer base.
I'm not bashing MOBA games, I think they are great, but even though there is definitely skill involved in playing them, that's not where they get their popularity from and it is not harder then SC2.
Saying that LoL games are more varied then SC2 games are also false. They might look a like on the surface but I dare you to find two SC2 games at the pro level where cheesing is not involved which are exactly the same.

Company sells scented candles that smell like new Apple MacBookBy Mason White 5:38 PM October 5, 2016
|Candles that smell like new Apple MacBook
By: Mahesh Sarin
A company began selling candles that smell like brand new Apple MacBooks.
The product is being sold by Twelve South, which is based in Charleston, South Carolina.
A spokesperson for the company said that due to the popularity of their candles, its entire stock was sold out. Consumers are urged to register in order to be notified as soon as the new candles are set to be shipped.
The company promised that the scented candles will be available later this month after the initial stock sold out in just 2 hours.
The candles are hand poured in Charleston. They are made of 100 percent soy wax. The candles can burn up to 60 hours each.
The price tag on the candle is just $24 so those who love the scent of a new Apple MacBook but cannot afford one, can at least make the bedroom smell like one.

The third and final day of Framing Frame is stealth-based. It's possible to succeed dirty, and it'll likely devolve to be dirty the first few times you try it. However, succeeding will bring incredible rewards, and you won't have to deal with an Escape sequence when you're done.
EditDay 3 Overview
The entire purpose of the contract was to frame a senator. You start on his roof and need to infiltrate his house. You need to steal five electronic items, allowing Bain to upload the scandalous information. If you can do so without tripping the alarms, you'll be able to access the senator's vault of gold, allowing you to leave with a huge bonus. If stealth isn't possible, the gold will lock, but you'll still have a couple million in your offshore account if you can get out alive.
EditDay 3 Randomization Factors
A laptop sits on the roof, and any player can interact with it to see inside the senator's house through hidden cameras installed inside the paintings you stole in Framing Frame - Day 1. The exact locations of the paintings vary from instance to instance. The five electronic items will significantly change locations randomly as well. The guards inside will change their starting locations and patterns, and the cameras will move around a bit too.
There are two "final" rooms. If you have to be dirty, you'll need access to a server room. If you're clean, you can access the vault. Each room has one of three locations in which it could be.
EditDay 3 Flow (Clean)
Once again, you'll want to at least attempt stealth if you possibly can. Everyone needs to come in silenced weapons. The player operating the cameras should be mic'ed, or it may take too long to relay information. If one particular player is incredibly good at stealth, it may behoove the team for that player to do most or all of the work.
If a player on your crew is bad at stealth or doesn't have the right Skills, it may be best for them to just stay up on the roof and standby in case things break down. The player operating the camera, in fact, should always come in with his best weapons and armor, since he'll only join everyone else inside if things turn sour.
When one player is operating the cameras, he can sweep them with the mouse. The cameras want to return to their original positions, so it'll take several sweeps to get them to cooperate. If the camera picks up any enemy, he'll gain a red outline; if it picks up any of the senator's five electronic objects, those will outline in yellow. There are also up to two keycards somewhere in the house, but neither one will highlight.
The highlight is important, because it will show for all players, not just the camera operator, for a few seconds. This can quickly convey where enemies are patrolling, even if the camera operator isn't mic'ed.
If you're one of the ones trying to infiltrate, move slow, and stay low. There is no Casing Mode, so you'll have your guns out from the start. You can kill up to two guards and use their pagers; after the third, the dispatcher will no longer believe them, and they'll summon the cops anyway. If the person interacting with the pager has the Smooth Talker skill from the Mastermind tree, the limit goes away. You can shoot cameras as well, but a guard will summon the cops if he sees a broken one. Coordinate with your team as you move through the house if you're split up. You don't want to accidentally kill a guard if one of your teammates already killed two.
Once all five items are taken, bring them to the roof. Bain will tell you how to set them up, and you can do it peace. After that, he'll tell you about the gold vault, which will behind one of three bookshelves in the house. Once you locate it, you'll also need to start depositing bags of coke in the senator's living room. You can throw them in from the roof if you break the skylights, or you can buy the "Bag Shortcut" asset and throw them down a vent. Of course, you can always just walk them down as well.
With the coke planted, you need to open the vault door. There is an office with a desk near the corner, which sits next to a room with a white door (one of the possible locations for the server room). Interact with the PC, and the door will open. The vault has a bunch of lasers, and touching any will summon the cops.
You can interact with the computer again to drop the lasers. Have another player interact with it, then run in. Start bagging the gold and flinging it out, since the lasers can't stay down long. It's possible to do this part by yourself if you have maximum endurance and sprinting speed and were lucky to have the vault nearby, but it's incredibly difficult.
The PC can be interacted with again to drop the lasers as often as you wish; if you're playing multiplayer, have each player grab a bag and fling it out into the hall, then wait for the other player to activate the computer again. Don't risk taking more than two bags of gold per trip, or you'll risk tripping the alarm. If you're alone, you won't be able to take more than one per trip.
If you can get the gold to the roof, toss the bags near the laptop to secure them. Once that's done, you can exit the same way, and you'll have an insane amount of cash to spend as you will.
If the gold seems risky, you can still complete the rest of the mission with stealth and ignore the gold. You'll be well-paid, just not quite as much as you could.
EditDay 3 (Dirty)
Unless you have Smooth Talker from Mastermind and luck out on the locations of the randomized objects, it will devolve into a fight. The cops tend to be a bit stronger in this level than the others at the same difficulty level.
If the alarms go off, then the vault will lock, and there's no way you'll get the gold. However, the solution to accomplishing the main objective becomes much more direct. You'll need to break into the server room, which will be behind one of the three white doors, then interact with the computer there to let Bain start the upload.
Each of the white doors has full security, so you'll need to drill, saw, or C4 it. If you picked up keycards in the house, you can use those as well, but there are only two keycards and three doors; if you're unlucky, you'll need to break in the hard way. The most easily defended server room location is in a corner on the upper floor, next to the corner desk that would open the vault. If it's located in either of the other locations, it'll be much tougher.
Even on the base difficulty, the cops will send Shields at you. As such, you won't be able to simply hole up in the server room to force the cops to bottleneck, because the Shield will still take you down. However, if you stay near the server room and fall back into it when you can, you'll be able to stay together and work together to take down your enemies.
It's not as simple as waiting them out however. The cops will routinely shut down the power to the computer, and you'll have to interact with a nearby fuse box to fix it. They tend to shut down the power every 30 seconds or so, which means you'll need to leave the server room often. If possible, have your two strongest attackers out to flip the switches, while the other two stay back in the server room. If things get too hot, ignore the fuse box for a bit, especially in the middle of an assault; flipping the power just to get cut down won't help you.
One strategy seems a little counter intuitive and is risky, but tends to be overall safer than running around for fuse boxes. Designate two players to stay with the server room, and the other two can be floaters who roam the halls. If one of the two floaters go down, and if he's surrounded, do not revive him. It sounds strange, but the computer tends to take at least 10 minutes or longer to transfer the files only because of the constant stoppages; Bain will likely be able to get that player back after only two or three minutes. Ergo, it's less likely to involve more of your team being taken down in an effort to rescue the fallen member. Plus, when he responds, he'll be at full health and with full ammo.
Once the computer is done, deal with any remaining forces; don't move out until you're clear of assaults. Head up to the roof, and a helicopter will come to extract you.

After 16 years kept wrongfully behind bars, Robert "Rider" Dewey survives on $698 a month in Social Security payments and much-appreciated donations from members of the public. He has no access to credit or to vocational training.
His exoneration in April for the 1994 rape and murder of a Palisade woman united unlikely allies across the legal community, both to set free an innocent man and in the call for compensation for those who've been wrongly convicted.
But putting pen to paper to draft a bill for the next legislative session is testing that alliance as divisions emerge over exactly what type of convict should qualify for state payouts.
Rep. Angela Williams, a Denver Democrat who's gathering opinions from prosecutors and defense-minded advocates, is still working to hammer out the more controversial details of the bill she'll sponsor when the state legislature convenes in January.
"Everyone believes this is the right thing to do," Williams said. "The easy part of this is deciding 'What do we give them?' The hard part is figuring out all the different scenarios that could happen in a court room" and who counts as "wrongfully convicted."
Williams said she wants to put in place some sort of safety net that includes counseling, job training, help accessing public benefits and money to compensate men and women for their lost years. Colorado is one of 24 states that offer no financial compensation to people such as Dewey upon their release.
Some defendants cleared after being imprisoned can sue. Tim Masters, cleared after serving 10 years for the murder of Peggy Hettrick, was able to sue Larimer County and Fort Collins police in federal court because there was prosecutorial misconduct in his case, an option that would not be available to defendants like Dewey. Masters settled for a combined $10 million.
As a poster case for state compensation of wrongfully convicted individuals, few candidates are more ideal than Dewey.
Faulty DNA analysis led to his conviction after a much flawed investigation into the death of Jacie Taylor. Throughout his trial and afterward, he never wavered from his claim of innocence.
Additional DNA testing eventually pointed authorities to another suspect in Taylor's murder. In other words, Dewey was not only "not guilty" — a term that can also mean prosecutors just didn't have enough evidence to convict someone — it was determined that he absolutely didn't commit the crime.
Model legislation circulated nationally by the Innocence Project — the organization that played a major role in both exonerating Dewey and providing him post-release support — would offer state benefits to a much broader variety of convicted individuals.
People who receive pardons and those, such as Masters, freed because of misconduct by prosecutors would qualify under their template.
So would defendants who entered a guilty plea and later had their conviction overturned, an allowance that troubles Colorado prosecutors, said Tom Raynes, director of the Colorado District Attorneys Council.
"Conceptually, we think there may be a place for this legislation," he said, "but it depends on how it's structured."
Raynes said his group has something far more limited in mind — like blocking those who seek state funds from also suing in federal court and requiring evidence of innocence, such as the DNA present in Dewey's case.
Williams said she's confident that by the time the legislative session opens, she'll have a bill that both sides can support.
As for Dewey, he just needs help, and the sooner the better.
He's been able to buy clothing — like the denim and leather he wears to ride his motorcycle — with help from the Innocence Project in New York, but he's eager to be able to stop relying on charity. While behind bars, a lifer like him didn't qualify for computer classes or vocational training, and a serious back injury has prevented him from doing the type of manual labor he supported himself with before his conviction.
He told Williams on Monday that he'd been released from prison without an ID card, without any money and without help finding housing or education about how to access public benefits.
"They just threw me out here. I'm like deer in headlights now," Dewey said. "But I don't know how you'd do it, write the legislation."

CLARIFICATION: Montana is one of the 24 states, like Colorado, that does not provide financial compensation for people wrongfully convicted. However, Montana does offer some educational assistance to those cleared by post-conviction DNA evidence testing.

We are thrilled with our new partnership with the library and hope our collaborative efforts address needs of our colleagues across the health system for more information about basic statistics and introductory research questions. Research is a team science and our goal is to connect researchers with the expertise they need! – Ruth Gaare Bernheim
Gretchen Arnold, MLS, Director of the Claude Moore Health Sciences Library (CMHSL), and Ruth Gaare Bernheim, JD, MPH, Chair of the Department of Public Health Sciences (PHS), have long recognized that the Library, with its strong service model, visibility, and accessibility, could be a central point in the Health System for finding needed research expertise. In the fall of 2013 their vision became reality when Gaare Bernheim approached Arnold and generously offered to fund the staffing of a pilot consultation service for one year. Soon after a PHS/CMHSL working group began meeting to ensure that the partnership would meet shared goals. According to Arnold, "The Library was thrilled to provide the space and equipment and we were especially delighted to work with statistical consultants who share our service goals. It's a perfect team and shows how creative minds can make things happen."
The new service is called Public Heath Sciences @ the Library and it is now open for business on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons between noon and 4pm on the first floor of the Library.
I sat down recently to discuss the service with Aaron Pannone, PhD, and Xin Qun Wang, M.S., Senior Biostatistician, the two members of PHS who are providing their expertise.
What types of research support do you offer?
Aaron:We are here to answer introductory questions about research, data, and statistics. Folks come to us with questions such as:
- What sample size would I need to use?
- What is a research question?
- How can I collect and store this data effectively?
- How design or conduct a chart review?
Who is eligible for the service and how do they contact you?
Aaron: Medical and Nursing school faculty, residence and fellows, students associated with the Health System, lab personnel, and other Health System staff. They can drop by here on the first floor of the library, Tuesdays and Thursdays between noon and 4pm, or they can go to the Bioconnector website where there is a link to a form.
How is this service at the library different or the same as what you do back at PHS?
Aaron: In numerous courses I teach research skills to masters students and undergrads in a classroom setting, and I also mentor masters students who are doing their individual projects, so the library consultation focuses on similar questions, and the same skills, just in a different teaching setting.
Xinqun: I agree. Not much difference except that we are giving advice rather than formal teaching. In the library we offer free advice intended to jump-start a research project or connect researchers and students to others who can provide help with their questions.
Any surprises so far?
Aaron: No surprises and it's all been interesting to meet researchers. We've seen students, faculty, house staff, and other staff. We have a lot of experience in this area so, so far, it's all been anticipated.
Xinqun: I was a bit surprised at how many students from the SOM have been approaching us. The nature of my job is not student focused, but now I have the opportunity to serve them and I have observed so much excitement about the research process. It is very satisfying to work with students and others who are beginning research projects and professional careers.
Final thoughts?
Aaron: We are excited to be able to meet people in the library. It's been fascinating to get a glimpse of all the great research that is going on in the health system.
Xinqun: I agree. This has been a very exciting opportunity and we look forward to meeting more Health System colleagues embarking on a research project.
As for future plans, there are a lot of ideas being tossed around. Everyone agrees that workshops will likely be developed around the types of questions the service generates, and there is talk about developing online "Learning Spots" or tutorials. Arnold and Gaare Bernheim agree that what you see now is just the beginning of a great partnership.

We will no longer be posting on Blessed Depth. We just don't have the time to post often enough or in-depth enough to make the blog a place where a community can build. Instead, we're going to switch to a more frequent tweeting schedule (@blesseddepth) to share depression-related articles, research, blogs, and videos that we find worthy of note. (We're on tweet hiatus as of August 2012.)
But it's been real and we've gotten a lot out of the 47 posts we let loose upon the world in 2011. Some of our favorites:
-Damn the DNA (by Soledad)
- Which of your traits made your life easier than it might've been?
Pastor Jayne's:
- Whaddya mean by depression?
- What comments or assumptions about depression really get your goat?
- Discuss: "Depression makes you more creative."
- How has your depression affected your spirituality?
- Is there anything good about depression?
At the risk of having Ms. Kali file a restraining order against me for linking to Beyond Meds so often, I suggest you check out her blog roll if you're looking for other blogs on mental health/illness, written either by sufferers themselves or by practitioners who understand their patients' struggles and actually know what they're talking about when it comes to the state of mental health care in the US.
All the best to you.

Kanye West donned a black Pyrex hoodie with a surprising black leather skirt and black leather pants underneath for the 12/12/12 Sandy Relief concert in NYC. His odd choice of "stylish" attire has raised some eyebrows and left many people wondering, "what was he thinking when he got dressed for the event?"
While some may look at Kanye West as a fashion icon, Chris Brown isn't going to start riding the skirt wave anytime soon and voiced his opinion on his Instagram account. Chris called Kanye's dress-up "suspect" and stated that he can't allow himself to adopt that "swag."
Check out Chris' message above.

text: New version of the patch is onftp.math.psu.edu/pub/viro/smp-patch-11.gzNews:* bad race in select (both SMP and UP) fixed. Old code does fcheck(fd) and might block before incrementing f_count; to trigger that one needs a select() on fdset with >170 members. Exploitable (clone() with COPY_FILES, select() in one thread, close() in another + right timing). Result being the dangling pointer to struct file. With all usual consequences.* race in dup2() fixed. (dup2(fd1,fd2) in one thread, close(fd1) in another, right timing and you've got both fd1 and fd2 closed)* bad race in do_load_aout_binary() fixed (more or less the same - exec() vs. close() instead of select() vs. close()).* fget(), get_unused_fd(), put_unused_fd(), sys_dup(), sys_dup2() - SMP-safe. Big lock shifting will follow - there's more to do here.* ->files->fd[] handling became SMP-safe (or so I hope ;-). It will need more cleanup and quite possibly some fixes, but the main part is there. Big mess remains in arch/* - it will be the next thing to fix. I didn't include large fd array support, but it should be easy to do now.* fput() made inline (thanks, Alexey). It still requires the big lock.* AF_UNIX handling of in-flight count fixed (ditto).So there... I'm not posting the thing to l-k - 66K is over the top.Comments are more than welcome, indeed. Patch is against 2.3.9-pre1 andit's *dangerous* - it may open new races somewhere. You've been warned.It should compile, but that's about all I can say. To be continued...
