When you think about staple items in a woman's lingerie wardrobe, you can't avoid the teddy. It's a classic silhouette that endures as a symbol of femininity. Due to its flattering effect on women of all body types, it's been stereotyped as a tool of seduction, especially in the popular culture. I was reminded of this recently by the recent passing of actor Larry Hagman, who played the iconic villain J.R. Ewing on the '80s series "Dallas." You may wonder why he makes me think of teddies. Well, anyone who watched the original series remembers that rascally J.R. had a string of mistresses during the show's long run and they were frequently shown wearing intimates. Hagman's on-screen wife Linda Gray endured his infidelities as the long-suffering Sue Ellen, who would usually turn to the bottle for consolation. When she fought back, however, her weapon of choice was often a piece of sexy lingerie. A teddy showcased her leggy body perfectly and reminded J.R. why he married her in the first place. In the show's later years, Sue Ellen took her fondness for intimates a step further and became an intimate apparel retailer, buying Valentine Lingerie and hiring J.R.'s gal pal Mandy Winger as the brand's spokesmodel to drive a wedge between them. This, my friends, is the power of a teddy! In real life, the stakes may not be as high, but I still think every woman should own a teddy, and not just because they look terrific on us. Today's teddy is both fashionable and functional. I think it can work well as a foundation for daywear. Arianne, the Canadian design house founded in 1947, is a master at creating gorgeous teddies that provide support and style. Many of them are so well-designed that they double as sportswear pieces that can be layered under a jacket and pencil skirt for a very modern look. Arianne is a class act that offers top quality in its assortment. The brand designs intimates and loungewear using exquisite fabrics such as sophisticated jacquards, sexy laces, ultrasoft Modal, cottons and viscose, all sourced around the world to create the perfect comfortable look. At Pink Slip, we carry three great teddy styles that hit all the right notes.
Light, sheer, stretch mesh fabric gently hugs your curves in the Catherine Teddy with intricate scalloped eyelet lace trim. Underwire cups offer support and shape and are trimmed with the scalloped lace. Narrow shoulder straps adjust in back. Thong styling in the rear is sexy and helps avoid panty lines.
If you're into floral design, consider the Stacy teddy, which features sheer floral lace at the leg openings. This style offers great support with padded underwire cups. Double spaghetti straps in front become a single adjustable strap in back. Rosette accents on front straps and at the center.
Be ravishing in red with the Jade teddy. This very flattering style features rose and vine jacquard fabric in rich colors with beautiful lace. It's highly functional with double adjustable straps and underwire cups lined with padding to gently enhance the bustline. Lace trim on leg openings are a stylishly feminine detail.
Opt for a teddy and give the bra and panties a break from time to time. I promise you'll feel luxuriously feminine all day long and at night, well, look at what it did for Sue Ellen!

The Sartorialist - Selected as one of Time Magazines top 100 Design Influencers!
I never officially announced it but The Sartorialist has been given a great honor.
My blog has been named to Time Magazine's list of 100 Top Design Influencers which appears in its new Style & Design issue.
It came out on April 13th but I still have not seen the issue so it doesn't quite feel real yet.
As I write this I am sitting in a little local coffee shop in Koln, Germany.
Notice that the title of the photo is MeKoln not MyColon (two completely different kinds of camera)
I shot in Munich the last two days, Koln today and tomorrow, Berlin and Hamburg next, then on to Sweden.
The weather has been great if a little warm and everyone has been very nice.
I have been very careful not to jaywalk while on this trip!

|Light attester configuration with cdn.ariatemplates.com
Julian Descottes
AT core team member
|11 October 2013 12:22
Hi all,
I just wanted to share the attester configuration I am now using for running AT tests, and which relies on the aria templates CDN you recently released ( http://cdn.ariatemplates.com/ ) :
The amazing thing about this configuration is that since the aria templates bootstrap includes a root map (a very good idea in the end !), you don't even need to have aria-templates deployed anywhere to run your tests.
Small complaints about the command for running tests :
attester --phantomjs-instances 1 attester.yaml
In case it can help someone to start writing tests

Actually, I have no idea why it was working yesterday, but now when the browsers wants to load my test classes, it tries to load them under '/__attester__/aria-templates'.
Did anything change on the CDN side ?
In any case, I adapted my configuration as follows :
As you can see in the resources section I've had to add a new mapping. Maybe something can be done to avoid this ?

And after a discussion with Benoit Charbonnier, it looks like my issue can be solved by specifying a custom root to the atcdn :
So, again a new version :
|16 October 2013 10:02
Indeed, I took the assumption that the default rootMap would be where your bootstrap file is, then changed it to / temporarily during Benoît's training session, then reverted it and added the root parameter. So basically you fell right into this mess
I'll test Benoît's comment about setting rootFolderPath and use this opportunity to put the default root to / again, which probably makes more sense.

ad. shortcut for 1 phantom instance:
I think we may indeed add a shortcut like
`attester --phantom`
`--phantomjs-instances 1`
or even a one-letter flag, though p is already used for "port" AFAIU: https://github.com/attester/attester/blo...ter.js#L46
Ad. autodetection of `attester.yml/yaml`:
well it might make sense, though question: should it only take the file from the current working directory (I guess so) if exists?
For instance in AT we have it in a subfolder
I'm also wondering if it wouldn't be required to have an option to suppress the autodetection of attester.yaml. If someone wants to run a campaign from the command line entirely, he might get some options overridden silently it (one thing is if the command line takes precedence over the cfg file -- to be checked; second is that some built-in defaults may get overridden too).
For instance, I have a bunch of aliases defined to run campaigns from the command line; basically everything (except required browsers -- 'cause they're an array of objects -- until https://github.com/attester/attester/pull/40/files lands in master) can be defined with the command line.
Would be helpful to get David's opinions, and if agreed, open an issue on /attester/attester on GH.

Bargain busyness: Club keeps kids occupied after school
The Boys and Girls club might be the biggest sleeper childcare bargain in Charlottesville. How affordable? For an annual membership fee of $35, a child is eligible for up to 1,500 hours of care— a year of after-school care and summer day camp.
"The best deal in town," says executive director James Pierce who adds that the options for keeping kids busy range from casual sports leagues to homework study groups. The Charlottesville operation is based at 1000 Cherry Avenue with an additional location at Southwood mobile home park– with full-day sessions when area schools are closed during the academic year.
"Whenever school is out," says Pierce, "we are in."
In addition, the club's summer Cycling Challenge recently gave a handful of teens the opportunity to train with professional cyclists for a grueling 75-mile ride in September and– thanks to corporate and individual donations– even gives the kids a new bike and gear when they complete the Challenge.
"We are not member supported—our costs are more than $35 a person," says Pierce.
While the club receives some federal funding from its national chapter, donations make up a large portion of the club's funding. The cycling event currently has over 350 registered riders and, serving as a major fundraiser, has a goal of bringing in $115,000.
In early August, a three-on-three basketball tournament and slam dunk contest brought some big names in local hoops to its judges table—central Virginia's Jim Miller and Phil Stinnie, both of whom played in the NBA during the 1980s as members of the Utah Jazz and the New York Knicks, respectively. Despite the famous guests, the event was aimed simply at community outreach as opposed to fundraising.
Youngsters have a relatively recently-arrived set of resources at their disposable—the Cherry avenue center will mark its second year in October and features two computer labs, a full-size gym, a learning center, an art room, two games rooms, an instructional kitchen, a café, and athletics fields. When the mercury rises, Smith pool is located right next door.
"The club has been a huge blessing to our family," said Laura Sadikoglu. "It allows my husband and I to work and have peace of mind knowing that our kids are in a safe place after school and all summer long."Read more on: Boys & Girls Club

President Barack Obama is sitting comfortably, watching the vice-presidential debate—his tie still on, his shirt sleeves rolled up—when he decides to call up his GOP rival, Mitt Romney. "Hello, Mitt. It's Barack. You watchin' the, uh, debate?" After Romney switches over to the debate, the two presidential candidates proceed to watch it together, analyzing the performance of their respective running mates and poking fun at one another.
In this opening skit for Friday's episode of "Late Night," host Jimmy Fallon played Romney and comedian Dion Flynn played President Obama.
When Obama and Romney see Vice President Joe Biden laughing in the debate while Paul Ryan is talking, Romney asks, "What's he laughing about?"
U.S. & World
"I believe he just caught your running mate telling a lie," Obama replies,
"Yep, that'll happen," Romney says. "Every time he opens his mouth and words come out, it just happens."
Obama then offers an idea for a drinking game: a shot whenever Biden says "my friend" or when Ryan "won't give specifics about your tax plan." Romney politely declines: "That's an awful lot of milk to be drinking on a Thursday night."
Romney and Obama also reveal some behind-the-scenes secrets on how they coached their running mates. Before the debate Obama told Biden that if he couldn't think of anything to say, he should use the word "malarkey." And Romney confessed that he told Ryan, "If you get confused, just start making up countries."
After Obama observes that Ryan is getting beat in the debate, Romney retorts, "Oh yeah? What's that like?"
At the end of the skit, Obama suggests they watch the "Jimmy Fallon Show" together, pointing out that Romney has never been invited to the show. "I've been invited," says Romney. "I just don't wanna go."

I figured that my colleagues have already sufficiently covered the upcoming changesthat we will be seeing with the next content patch (3.2), so there was really no need for me to touch on the topic. Of course…other than to say the following to my dear paladins: no, the world is not ending; yes, you will still be able to heal; no, you will not always be OOM. Wait for the PTR results before jumping off that cliff, dear friend.
OK! Now that we've gotten that out of the way. . .I thought I'd rant a bit about something releated, but different.
Does anyone else think that patch 3.2 is coming way to fast? I mean, I know that we've got 2-3 months of PTR testing ahead of us still, but I honestly feel like I just stepped into Ulduar yesterday. I've barely had time to stop and breath and enjoy the instance…and we are just 2 weeks into focusing hard modes. I feel like we are just starting to really sink our teeth into the meat of the instance, and it's going to be a flash in the pan before we have a chance to get through it all.
Let's look at some numbers, shall we?
Ulduar was released in content patch 3.1, which hit live US servers on April 14, 2009. Ulduar has been available for exactly 66 days. We are currently working on our ninth lockout period with the instance.
According to wow progress there are approximately 53,250 guilds that are currently raiding in some fashion, encompassing 2,700,790 players world wide. Of those guilds working Heroic Ulduar:
- 16,229 (30.48%) of them have completed the Siege of Ulduar;
- 13,754 (25.83%) of them have completed the Antechamber of Ulduar;
- 8,204 (15.41%) of them have completed the Keepers of Ulduar;
- 3,521 (6.61%) of them have completed the Descent into Madness;
- 35(.07%) of them have unlocked Algalon's room;
- 9(.02%) of them have actually killed Algalon.
Damn! Now, I know that Algalon is supposed to be that boss that is there for the best of the best and all…but only THIRTY FIVE guilds getting to him? Only NINE guilds killing him? And we are already starting to explore new content? Seriously?
Let's take a look at how guilds are faring on some of the other challenges in Ulduar once you are past Yogg Saron:
- 1,418 (2.66%) guilds have defeated Hard Mode Hodir;
- 899 (1.69%) guilds have defeated Hard Mode Thorim;
- 105 (.20%) guilds have defeated Hard Mode Freya;
- 35(.07%) guilds have defeated Hard Mode Mimiron;
- 529 (.99%) guilds have defeated Hard Mode Iron Council;
- 1,431 (2.69%) guilds have defeated Hard Mode XT-002;
- 218 (.41%) guilds have defeated Hard Mode Vezax;
- 52 (.10%) guilds have defeated Yogg-Saron with only one keeper active, and
- 0 guilds have defeated Yogg-Saron with no keepers active.
Any way that you slice it, that is not very many people at all, even if you are considering all those proclaimed super "hardcore" guilds.
Sure…we still have some time to work on the zone, but I've just gotten to breathe for a couple of weeks after killing Yogg. I am now back to learning every single thing I can about hard modes so that we can push through them. And Blizzard wants to throw new shit at me already?!?!?! I'm sorry, I'm just not ready to be inundated with all manner of new information at this time. I want time to enjoy what I've already been given for at least a little bit longer, dammit!
Yes, I am aware that egotistical druid from the EJ forums (yea…you know who you are, everyone else that has been following your posts knows who you are too) probably thinks that I'm shit and my guild is shit because OMG YOU HAVEN'T EVEN KILLED HARD MODE HODIR YET, YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY HAVE ANYTHING TO CONTRIBUTE BECAUSE YOU SUCK. Hey buddy, fuck off. Guess what, A LOT of people haven't killed hard mode Hodir yet. Perhaps you think it's time for new content Mr. Prickhead, but there are A LOT of people still trying to work through the hard modes, and would like to do so before Blizzard starts throwing new challenges at us that we will feel obligated to go and meet. I'd really like to be at least a little closer to completing the challenges we've already been given.
Please do not get me wrong. I am not asking for anything to be nerfed (although I reserve the right to change this statement when we get to hard mode mimiron), I'm just asking for a little bit of time to complete what I've already been given. No, we aren't the best of the best, but we do work hard (usually). Sure, we were 5 weeks behind those bleeding edge guilds in progression. However! Even a lot of the best are not "ready" for this new content yet! I mean, c'mon, only 105 people have beaten hard mode Freya! Only 35 people hard mode Mimiron! In nine weeks only 9 guilds have successfully downed Algalon, basically, if you haven't unlocked him yet you aren't going to kill him before 3.2 hits unless they lift his one hour despawn timer. While I don't have the expectation that we will be able to kill algalon before the next content patch, I do have the expectation that we would at least be able to see him.
You have given us a huge zone with 14 raid bosses, you have given 10 of them hard modes for people to work on. They are in fact hard, and a lot of people are just starting them. Sure, not everyone is supposed to be able to do them, but I would think that it would be your intent for a decent number of progression guilds to be able to get through them before you introduce something new. Why are you cutting the time that we get to do that so short? Why do you want to push so fast to the next thing? I don't know about you, but I certainly haven't been seeing much bitching from the bleeding edge progression guilds about needing new content already, and certainly even less from the next tier of "hardcore" guilds that have just recently started their hard mode ambitions.
Is it your intent, Blizzard, that we should be clearing Ulduar concurrently with the new zone? If not, why are you trying to push it out to us so swiftly? I don't know, maybe I am just way off base on this. I am sure there is going to be some guy that sits back and goes "LOL just suck less", but honestly, I don't think we've been "sucking" very much. We were in the top 4ish% of guilds to kill Yogg. I should think that the top 4% of the raiding base should have time to complete the hard modes before the next instance releases, right? If that is the case, then why do I feel like everything is happening so quickly?
I don't know…maybe I am just overly-concerned about it. I'm sure the more we go through the motions -> get more gear -> everything will continue to become easier. But damn if I don't feel like I've barely had time to absorb Ulduar.
Am I wrong about this? Is anyone else feeling rushed? Is there such a thing as content coming too fast?

Another rarity for Star Wars fans. These transfers from Super 8mm film are unique shortened edits (about 15 mins per reel, 2 reels per movie). Thanks to Puggo for the telecine (more info HERE and HERE).
They were a nightmare to rip, because of the grain and flicker. I could have filtered the image to make it more compressible, but that would have taken away the authentic appeal of these videos. So instead I decided to use an extremely high bitrate. (Standalone players may choke or stutter on these.)

Our Connect Group lessons this past week were on the Sabbath. I was convicted that I was not being intentional about taking a Sabbath. Over the past two years, I have heard several Bible teachers/pastors speak on Sabbath and the importance of taking a Sabbath. I KNOW what God's word says, but in this area, I have not been a doer of that word. That changed this week.
This week, instead of taking an entire day as a Sabbath rest, I have incorporated a daily Sabbath into my routine. I call it my 7 Minute Sabbath. For the most part, I end my quiet time with this. The 7 Minute Sabbath is simply about being still and listening.
This morning was one of those moments when a very familiar scripture seemed to come off the page during my Bible study, but it was during that 7 minute Sabbath that I felt God make it personal for me.
Psalm 33: 3
Sing to him a new song; play skillfully on the strings with loud shouts.
I have loved this particular verse for years. It was my justification for practicing piano before doing homework in high school. However, today it was the first part of the verse that absolutely tugged at my heart.
Sing to him a NEW SONG.
What God impressed in me this morning was that a "new song" doesn't always mean NEW lyric, NEW style, or NEW as in just written or freshly composed. Those are great and I am a firm believer in using freshly composed music!!
But sometimes, in our personal life, we sing the same song over and over.
Have you been there? God delivers or heals you in one area and it is incredible! That particular time becomes a spiritual milestone, a building block of faith. You sing that song of deliverance or healing over and over. AS YOU SHOULD!
BUT…sometimes we take those milestones and building blocks of faith and just set up camp. We glorify the THING we were delivered from MORE than we glorify the ONE who did the delivering.
There are mile markers on this journey that we miss because we are so focused on what he has done in the past that we miss what he is doing today.
Please hear me, we should never forget what God has done. We SHOULD look back with thanksgiving and celebration and say look how far he has brought us.
BUT, looking back for extended periods of time and not fixing our eyes on Jesus TODAY, is dangerous. I believe with all my heart constant focus on the past keeps you from seeing the hand of God working in your life TODAY.
What is he doing today? Where is he taking you in this season of life? What area is he teaching you to trust him more?
At the end of this week, will you have a new song to sing?

I've been working on porting my sample game code to WinRT. One of the immediate things I found is that there is no direct access to the keyboard buffer. I mean, sure. WinRT is meant to work with devices that don't have keyboards, but that's no excuse.
So being the bourbonred-blooded geek I am, I decided to implement my own. Most of this process is not for this post. My next post will show this whole process and include lots of sample code. However, there was one part that was so evil, I decided it would get its very own post.
In order to do this, I needed to trap OnKeyDown and OnKeyUp. While doing this, I look for specific keys, handle them and pass the rest on to the framework. Basically, when I get the OnKeyDown event, I look for an arrow key and move the sprite as necessary. Go look at my XNA KeyboardControlState example. I'm imitating that.
As I'm testing this, I noticed a bugundocumented feature. The sprite moves as expected for about half a second. Then, it goes into HYPER-SMURFING-SPEED! This would be awesome, if intended. Unfortunately, I'm too lazy to document it. Thus, I decided to remove the feature.
I decided to use one of those nifty Visual Studio features and set up a conditional breakpoint. I know, I'm high-tech. I told the breakpoint to fire on the second hit. I run the app, I press up, I hold up, I wait half a second, I get a breakpoint.
Some of you have figured this out by now. The first one of you that says "Sticky Keys" gets smurfed.
I've been operating under the assumption that OnKeyDown gets fired when the key is pressed down, and OnKeyUp gets fired when the key is released. I'm pleased to announce that I was half right. However, OnKeyDown is not tied to the physical key press. It's tied to the keyboard driver sending a keystroke to the framework.
The entire process was fixed with a List. Yes, there are more elegant solutions. However, when you see that List sitting it the class, there is no denying why it is there.

When the pending robopocalypse strikes, you may be tempted to seek refuge in the water. Don't do it — and watch this video to see why. It's the HiBot ACM-R5 robotic snake, a twirling and swirling amphibious machine developed by Japanese researchers. And what's just as remarkable (or is that horrifying?) is that it can maneuver itself on both land and in the water — leaving humans no place to hide.
From Hirose Fukishima Labs:
The control system of ACM-R5 is an advanced one. Each joint unit has CPU, battery, motors, so they can operate independently. Through communication lines each unit exchanges signals and automatically recognizes its number from the head, and how many units join the system. Thanks to this system operators can remove, add, and exchange units freely and they can operate ACM-R5 flexibly according to situations.

No words can comprehend the horror and tragedy unleashed by the tsunamis that struck huge parts of South Asia on Sunday, December 26th. The scale of the calamity that took tens of thousands of lives is matched only by the human suffering and loss experienced by many thousands more who just barely survived. They now face the unimaginable task of identifying and burying the dead, rebuilding their lives and struggling to rebuild their communities.
--Bishop William S. Skylstad, USCCB President, December 29, 2004
President Bush will soon ask Congress for supplemental appropriations for Iraq, Afghanistan, and the victims of the tsunami in South Asia.
Shortly after the tsunami devastated Asian countries at the end of 2004, President Bush pledged $350million to aid the victims. The President did not ask Congress to provide emergency funds immediately,as he will draw the money from existing accounts in the fiscal year 2005 Foreign Operations and Defense budgets. The President is expected shortly to ask Congress to consider a supplemental spending bill for relief and reconstruction aid. The total U.S. contribution is expected to rise to $900million. Congress will also need to replenish the humanitarian and development accounts (International Disaster and Famine Assistance and the Department of Defense emergency fund) that were used for initial tsunami relief and which are relied upon to fund other priorities.
Additional assistance for tsunami victims will come in the form of a moratorium on debt payments for poor countries most affected, to free up their already strained resources for health care, sanitation, and reconstruction. The Paris Club of creditor nations offered to freeze debts until the World Bank and International Monetary Fund assess reconstruction and financing needs.
In addition, discussions have begun on potential trade preferences, allowing countries like Sri Lanka improved access to U.S. markets and greater opportunities for economic development through trade,not solely through aid.
Catholic Relief Services
The response by non-governmental sources has been truly remarkable. USCCB President Bishop William Skylstad of Spokane made an appeal to all U.S. bishops urging them to consider taking up a second collection in their dioceses to assist with relief efforts of Catholic Relief Services, the bishops' overseas relief and development agency. Catholic Relief Services exceeded its initial pledge of $25 million by raising$65.9 million (as of early February) for emergency needs as well as long-term reconstruction. It has ultimately committed to $80million over the next five to seven years. CRS immediately setup offices in the worst-hit areas and deployed additional personnel to aid with the emergency response. In partnership with other aid organizations, CRS is providing victims with clean water and temporary shelter, offering trauma counseling services, and airlifting and distributing resources that range from food and medication to soap and clothing. In addition to its immediate relief operations, CRS will direct funds toward long-term programming, such as increasing governments 'capacities to cope with disasters, and rebuilding roads, schools, clinics, and houses.
USCCB/CRS Position
We are heartened by the generous response to the tsunami disaster and will urge the administration and Congress to provide essential aid to the victims for recovery and reconstruction. As the same time, the USCCB will continue to advocate for humanitarian and development aid for poor and conflict ridden countries in other parts of the world, particularly in Africa and Latin America. USCCB will urge that aid to the tsunami victims not come at the expense of funding for other long-standing needs.

The Giants were lucky to be up 2-1 in the 9th. Matt Cain, after a long battle with Seth Smith in the 6th, gave up a rope down the right field line that would have scored two, only it was ruled foul. The replay seemed to show the A's got hosed on the call. Smith then fouled out to left field and the Giants clung to the lead. After Matty worked a brisk 7th inning, Jeremy Affeldt did his best to give it away in the 8th with a lead off double by pinch hitter Brandon Hicks that missed being a home run by inches. He then dodged a bullet by getting a nice 4-6-3 double play from Josh Reddick. Santiago Casilla, unfortunately, had none of the magic dust of his predecessors. The A's roped two singles in between two strikeouts, and rookie catcher Derek Norris worked a full count, fouled off the next pitch, then blasted his first big-league home run to win the game. It was a no-doubter. Casilla poured in a fastball and the kid jumped all over it. That's back-to-back poor outings for the Giants closer. The A's deserved to win today, that's hard for me to say but it is true. Their rookie starter, A.J. Griffin, gave up a two-run homer to Buster Posey in the 1st, then mowed everyone down after that, at one point retiring 13 in a row. Lefty Sean Doolittle got three strikeouts in his 1-2/3, and righty Jim Miller stranded two runners in the 8th and worked a perfect ninth. The home team got revenge for their closer blowing it in the 9th on Friday. The visitors never got anything going after Buster's homer and looked pretty feeble for most of the day. The guys on the telecast mentioned that the Giants have never swept an away series against the A's. Three games, three 9th-inning comebacks. That was the last interleague game, by the way. No more designated hitter for the rest of the regular season.
p.s. Dodgers lose in Anaheim. Shoulda, coulda, woulda. Big showdown tomorrow night!

Most managers will put in a closer right away after a bad outing. I think this is a mistake. Often a pitcher, just like a hitter will go into a slump, or a mini-slump. If he was terrible yesterday, give him a break especially before the dodger series, and let someone else close. Not Loux, but somebody if available, perhaps Romo. If not, there still were other options.

This would have been Cain's 9th win in 9 starts.
At least Dickey had a weak outing against the Yankees yesterday.
Advantage Cain.

This article contains a list of appearances, but currently has few or no notes and references. Please help the Harry Potter Wiki by adding notes and/or references to bring this article to a higher standard of quality.

This inn was the place, where Antioch Peverell, one of the three Peverell brothers, lodged sometime between 1214 and 1291. It is situated somewhere in England, most likely in the "distant village" where Peverell's enemy lived.
According to The Tale of the Three Brothers, after receiving the Elder Wand from Death himself, Antioch travelled to a distant village, where he killed a wizard with whom he had once quarrelled. He then went to this inn to drink some wine and boast loudly of the powerful wand that he had "snatched from Death himself". When he returned to his room, "wine-sodden", he fell asleep on his bed. Another wizard, who had heard Peverell boasting, seized the opportunity and crept upon Antioch, stealing his wand and sliting his throat for good measure.
Behind the scenes
- The concept artwork for the Tale of the Three Brothers scene in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 seems to have based this tavern's quarters as the rooms in the Leaky Cauldron, as featured in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (film). However, it is impossible it was the same place: for one, the Leaky Cauldron was built in the fifteenth century, while the Peverell brothers lived in the thirteenth century; also, Antioch Peverell is described, according to legend, to have travelled to a "distant village", which London is hardly.

As the Lions continue to play musical chairs in the secondary, they've made yet another move at cornerback.
Pat Lee, who started seven games at cornerback for the Raiders this year but was surprisingly cut on Saturday, has been claimed off waivers by the Lions. To make room on the roster for Lee, Detroit has waived cornerback Alphonso Smith.
The Lions have been plagued by injuries in the secondary this season, so being able to acquire a cornerback who was a starter for most of this season has to be welcome news in Detroit. The move presumably means the Lions are no longer in the hunt for former Chiefs cornerback Stanford Routt, who is a free agent after he cleared waivers last week.
Detroit is also expected to get cornerback Drayton Florence back soon after he has spent the last eight weeks on injured reserve with the return designation.

|Minimum Requirements
Total: 30 credits
About the 'A-G' Requirements
To be considered for admission to a University of California campus, such as UC San Diego, students must complete 15 yearlong high school courses with a grade of C or better — at least 11 of them prior to their senior year.
Keep in mind that taking approved high school ("A-G") courses isn't the only way to satisfy these requirements. You also may meet them by completing college courses or earning certain scores on SAT, Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate exams. Go to the University of California website.
Doing well in "A-G" courses will also help you in community colleges, professional schools and wherever your after-high-school life will take you. They provide an excellent foundation for future learning. For more information on these courses, see your counselor.

NEW YORK — Engagement is a big word in education. It combines both objective participation and subjective emotion. It's one of the few psychological terms in education that links students, teachers and content. So it's not surprising that in promoting the iPad as a tool for education, Apple touted the device's ability to engage students.
Because they're so engaging: okay, let's just drop the bull and say it, because they're cool — Apple sells a lot of iPads for education. At Thursday's event, Apple's Phil Schiller said that 1.5 million iPads were in use in education settings, leveraging more than 20,000 education applications. Today, Apple's giving away brand-new tools that ensure the company will be able to sell many, many more.
iBooks 2: Reinventing the textbook
Apple's first announcement is an update to its primary reading application for iOS: iBooks 2 is available in the App Store for iPhone or iPad today. (Disappointingly, there's no move to add a desktop client for Mac or Windows.)
A few of the new textbooks' features are standard fare when it comes to electronic books. For instance, it's easy to highlight and annotate text just by swiping, or tap words to define them.
The iPad's primary differentiator from a dedicated e-reader is going to be its ability to display full-color, interactive, multimedia content. With textbooks, that means not just audio and video, but also three-dimensional diagrams that can be touched, rotated, explored.
iBooks 2 adds familiar iOS gestures to interacting with these textbooks: not just tapping to select or pinch-and-spread to zoom, but also rotation to switch between text and multimedia — exactly the same way you would switch between list view and cover flow browsing music on an iOS device.
It also adds a few new views of its own: for instance, turning notes, highlights and annotations into an interface resembling a series of browsable index cards.
iBooks Author: Keynote's bookish cousin
Other than these alternate views, the new iBooks are through-designed: authors define and lay out their own text and graphics. iBooks offers more authorial/editorial control than we've seen in any competing e-book platform. It's possible to do this for the iPad in a way that it isn't for Android or e-readers in part because every screen is exactly the same size.
The books are created in iBooks Author, a free application for Mac. (No app for Windows. Sorry, vast majority of the PC market! Apparently, on top of the iPads, Apple's still got to sell some desktops, too. Update: iBooks Author also requires OS X Lion, the latest Mac operating system. This is an additional limitation — and not coincidentally, an additional incentive to get interested parties to buy new Macs.)
Even though it was tipped as a "GarageBand for e-books," a better analogy might be a "KeyNote for e-books," or "Pages on steroids." It's much closer in interface and philosophy to the template-based text-and-information apps of the iWork suite than it is to the media-driven apps of iLife. It's not a remix machine as much as it is a layout and presentation engine.
iBooks Author even leverages Keynote to effectively drag-and-drop Keynote presentations to become interactive elements in e-books. Designers with a little more in the way of coding chops can build widgets in HTML5 and JavaScript.
From there, there are two important buttons at the top. One lets you preview the book on an iPad; the other publishes it to the iBookstore.
Textbooks in the iBookstore
Once an authored e-textbook is in the iBookstore, it's got some tough company. Education publishing giants Pearson, McGraw-Hill and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt are all offering books there too, in a brand-new Textbooks section of the store.
Have you heard of the Big Six trade presses? In education, these are the Big Three.
For high school textbooks, these presses are committing to sell books at a remarkable $14.99 or less, which gets students access to continued updates to each digital edition. (It looks like bulk and institutional purchases are off the table, at least for now.)
(Update: Keen-eyed reader Daniel Bigler alerted me to this volume purchasing section of Apple's Education site. A few caveats, though: Not all publishers make their books available for volume purchasing. An institution's program facilitator buys the books, usually at a discount, and distributes codes to students and teachers. Under the current program, an iTunes account is required to redeem the codes, which limits them to users 13 and over. And the book (or app) is tied to that individual user's iTunes account — so the school would have to repurchase books for each new cohort of students.)
Most of these presses are also involved in other e-textbook initiatives, including Inkling, in which Pearson and McGraw-Hill are both investors. But there are also a few iBooks exclusives, such as Life on Earth from the E.O. Wilson Biodiversity Foundation, and four new illustrated reference books by DK Publishing, an imprint within Pearson's Penguin Group. (Bring on the Lego Star Wars books! — sadly not among the new books announced.)
So that's students, authors and publishers. What about those other people in education? You know, the ones who stand at the front of the room and still smell like chalk?
Reinventing the virtual classroom with iTunes U
Up until now, iTunes U has basically been a special education podcast section in iTunes, mostly geared towards higher ed. It's a mic feed or camera over the shoulder in a lecture hall — which really only covers the most basic way information is conveyed in a proper classroom.
Now, iTunes U — still free — has become something much closer to a full-fledged learning management app for iOS. Teachers can post materials from syllabi to assignments, blog entries and updates, and everything else they need in order to communicate with students — on top of incorporating iBooks 2 and iTunes U audio/video content.
It's not entirely clear to me that the new and improved iTunes U can become a wholesale replacement to current widely-used learning management systems like the much-reviled Blackboard. I don't know whether it meets some of the specialized security requirements for handling assignment submissions, grading, and so forth. And again, deploying it as an iOS app rather than a web-based service limits its use to Apple's proprietary platform. But it is potentially a powerful new tool to add to existing "open education" iTunes U-related initiatives like MIT OpenCourseWare. And it's exciting to see a company that actually knows how to build software a person would want to use venture into the bone-ugly world of education management systems. Finally, Apple's lined up a slew of university partners who seem willing to give it a shot. So who knows?
Also, in line with the K-12 focus of today's announcement, "iTunes U" is now also open to K-12 teachers and their students. The old joke about getting your kids ready to go to university when they start preschool has new meaning.
Summary: Apple's publishing crabwalk
If you're disappointed that Apple didn't take something closer to a direct shot at either Amazon or the education industry establishment, don't be. This has the potential to disrupt both — just elliptically.
Pardon the pun, but it's a textbook Apple move. It leverages the company's ability to create excellent desktop software (making the continued absence of an iBooks app for Mac or Windows now utterly perplexing, if not near-criminal) and team up with media partners.
It's also a textbook Apple game-changer — in an almost literal sense of shifting the field of play. Amazon has far too much of a lead on Apple in distributing electronic versions of trade press and self-published books for iBooks to tackle them directly. Make that the metric and Apple can only lose.
Shift the focus to the education market — which by revenue actually far outstrips trade books — and Apple now can compete with startups like Inkling, Kno and Chegg on much more favorable terms.
Meanwhile, iBooks Author is the trojan horse. There really aren't many easy-to-use e-book authoring apps, even for plain-text books for Kindle or Nook. And none of the easy-to-use applications have been free.
Now both individual authors and trade and textbook presses can be drawn into a development and publishing ecosystem that begins and ends with Apple. Amazon may offer more eyeballs, but Apple offers an easier workflow. And the multimedia enhancements baked into the new iBooks will tempt everyone creating an e-book to add bits that will be specific to Apple's platform — creating accidental exclusives.
It's not just about engaging students. It's about engaging everyone in the education and publishing industries. If Apple can win their hearts and minds, it will win their business, too: Macs, iPads and iBooks.

Why do we care more about winning than about playing by the rules?
Integrity - all of us are in favor of it, but nobody seems to know how to make sure that we get it. From presidential candidates to crusading journalists to the lords of collegiate sports, everybody promises to deliver integrity, yet all too often, the promises go unfulfilled.
Stephen Carter examines why the virtue of integrity holds such sway over the American political imagination. By weaving together insights from philosophy, theology, history and law, along with examples drawn from current events and a dose of personal experience, Carter offers a vision of integrity that has implications for everything from marriage and politics to professional football. He discusses the difficulties involved in trying to legislate integrity as well as the possibilities for teaching it.
As the Cleveland Plain Dealer said, "In a measured and sensible voice, Carter attempts to document some of the paradoxes and pathologies that result from pervasive ethical realism... If the modern drift into relativism has left us in a cultural and political morass, Carter suggests that the assumption of personal integrity is the way out."
About the Author:
Stephen L. Carter is the William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Law at Yale University.
Born in 1954 in Washington, D.C., Professor Carter was educated in the public schools of New York City, Washington, and Ithaca, New York. In 1976 he received his bachelor's degree with honors from Stanford University, where he majored in history, and in 1979 he received his law degree from the Yale Law School.
Following his graduation from law school, Professor Carter served as law clerk to Judge Spottswood W. Robinson III of the United States Court of Appeals in Washington D.C., and, the next year, as law clerk to Justice Thurgood Marshall of the Supreme Court of the United States. After practicing law for a year, Professor Carter joined the Yale faculty in 1982. Three years later, he became one of the youngest members of the faculty ever voted tenure.
His critically acclaimed books include The Culture of Disbelief and Reflections of an Affirmative Action Baby. He is currently at work on Civility, the sequel to Integrity. Professor Carter lives with his family in Connecticut.

Vladimir Posadov
– Candidate of Technical Science, expert in vibration survey of gas turbine engines of strength design department.
For Mikhail Kosarev the second-class medal of the "Order of Merit for the Motherland" is not the first prestigious award. In 2006 he was awarded with a title "Honorable Aircraft Industry Worker". Blades polishing is not a simple process, experience and innovative mindset are important in it. Mikhail started his professional life at the enterprise thirty years ago, in 1989, he perfectly mastered the profession of polisher and became a universal specialist who is able to perform any complicated work with a good quality and in time. Whether it is polishing operations of seven stages of blades of D-30KP/KU engine, five of which are made of titanium alloys, or participation in manufacturing of blades for the advanced PD-14 engine, of marine gas turbine engine in the frames of import substitution program and development of Russian marine gas turbine building base.
According to Alexander Mikhailov, the owner of the second-class medal of the "Order of Merit for the Motherland", sense of purpose and willingness to create hardware at the level of the best world-class products are the most important in the work of engineer-designer. Alexander has been working at UEC-Saturn since 1975. Having subsequently passed the way from engineer-designer to chief technical auditor, having got a huge experience and professional knowledge, he enjoys well-deserved recognition among staff members and specialists of the industry sector. His everyday working life requires solution of complicated scientific-technical tasks connected with the development of unique designs. A.Mikhailov believes that one of the most interesting aspects of the designer's work is an inventive activity. Under his belt there are 21 innovation proposals, 15 authorship certificates of the USSR and patents of inventions of the Russian Federation, and 11 patents of useful models of the Russian Federation; 9 out of 26 inventions and 12 innovation proposals were used in scientific-research and experimental-design works and in serial production.
Stanislav Piotukh engaged himself with Rybinsk enterprise in 1967 and during 52 years he worked his way from an engine-mechanic to the head of the turbines design department, and he approved himself as a talented designer and efficient organizer of works on solution of complicated technical tasks in the sphere of aircraft engines building. Development, investigation and testing of the turbines of most of the engines produced at UEC-Saturn were done under supervision and with direct involvement of Stanislav. For his lasting personal contribution into aviation industry and high professionalism he was awarded with titles "Honorable Machine Industry Worker" (2004) and "Honorable Aircraft Industry Worker of the Russian Federation" (2007), and one more well-deserved honor - the second-class medal of the "Order of Merit for the Motherland". Since 1974 Stanislav is actively engaged into development of inventions, he has 16 authorship certificates of the USSR and 25 patents of the Russian Federation. Inventions of S.Piotukh relate to the turbine building sphere and can be applied in gas turbine engines and installations of the aircraft building industry and machine industry.
Vladimir Posadov, awarded with a title "Honored inventor of the Russian Federation", started his professional life in the company in 1988 as an engine mechanic-test operator of the 4th category and worked his way up to the head of the design department. From 2011 he is an expert in vibration survey of gas turbine engines. He has been engaged in invention activities since 1994, and he is an author of 25 patents of the Russian Federation, he has 23 patents for inventions and 2 patents for useful models. The main direction of Vladimir's inventive activity – technical diagnostics: development of non-destructive methods of inspection in gas turbine engines operation, detection of deviations from their normal operation in the process of bench tests, timely detection of defects, identification of sources and causes of their origination, detection of diagnostic properties. The inventions are focused on the engines safety improvement and timely detection of malfunctions without engines removal from tests and disassembly at early stage of defect initiation, reduction of costs for tests performance.
"We are proud of the enterprise we are working at and doing everything which depends on us in order to maintain its reputation, as one of the leaders of Russian engine building,
- said
Vladimir Posadov

Like everyone else I like to rant once in a while. I rant about the shortcomings in Oracle software, the tools and technologies I work with. But this time I want to rant about a decisively non-technical topic. Arguably it is something that everyone must have felt - at least once. It's about communicating clearly. Why don't people do it? Why don't they articulate whatever they are trying to say. Instead they spit out incoherently with thoughts coming across as sloppily slapped together expecting the other person to somehow put it all together. I am not talking about children; these are responsible adults who supposedly make up policies and act as thought leaders. Unclear thoughts and communication not only frustrates people; but is dangerous. It misdirects efforts leading to wastage and often utter failure.
Today I had on the receiving end of such a travesty. Earlier, a manager of an application team wrote to me this email (reproduced verbatim) about a requirement:
We are having a shortage of capabilities on the servers. So we want to increase the capabilities somehow. What do you recommend?
I was scratching my head. How can I comment or influence the capabilities of their applications? Perhaps they are asking about some limitations which might be solved by some Oracle technology features. So, I called them for a quick chat. After half hour I still wasn't clear about what limitations they are trying to solve.
And then, after one hour, I got it: they are talking about capacity; not capability! And not only that it's about the database server; not the app server. [Trying to pull my hair out at this time]
My recommendation would have been to send them to an English school; but, being occasionally wise, I kept it to myself.
OK; let's move on. I promised to have a DBA look at the capacity issue.
And a DBA did. Sme days went by and it apprently reached a boiling point. I was told nothing has been done by the DBA and, well, that's not acceptable. so, I intervened. I asked the DBA for her side of the story. It was pretty simple - the CPU, I/O are all normal, way below utilization. The growth projections were eight times. Yes, eight times. So, the DBA made a request for the increase in capacity and that's where the friction has started. No one anticipated the eight fold increase; so there is simply no room. Stalemate!
As the head of database architecture, I question any growth projections, especially ones that go up 8 times. And I did. Here was the response "we are running on 2 legs and we will run on 16 legs in the near future".
2 legs?!!! What is that? What is a leg?
As it turns out, the application is running 2 java virtual machines. the app architects are recommending to run 16 JVMs to add redundancy and distribute local processing. From the database perspective, that means 2 clients now will become 16; but the overall processing will *not* go up.
Instead of saying that in plain English, the App manager coined a term "leg" to describe the issue in apprently in some technical way. This was communiated to his management chain, which in turn interpreted it as 8 fold increase in processing and demanded that we create 7 more databases. They approved the new "databases" and allocated the budget. But since the friction came with a member of my team, I became involved. As I always do, I questioned the decision and that's how the truth came out, which in turn also cleared the mystery behind the "capability" story described above.
All these hoopla about people not communicating in a clear manner. Adding 16 more clients should have simple enough to connvery even to the mail guy; calling it "legs" confused every one, wasted time and increased frustration. If I hadn't questioned it, it would have been implemented too. 7 more databases doing nothing to solve the issues present.
Communication is all about articulation and presentation of thoughts. The key is empathy - put yourself in the recipient's shoes and try to look at what you are saying from that persepctive. It's not about English (or whatever the language used); it's about the clarity of thought process. Granted not everyone will be able to present the thought process equally coherently while speaking; but what about writing? There is no excuse for not writing coherently, is there? The only reason for being incoherent is just a I-don't-care attitude. Of course, there are other things - unfamilairity with the language used, lack of time, environment (typing on the blackberry with one finger while cooking with the other hand), state of mind (typing out the report while waiting for the third drink to arrive at the bar); but most of the time it's just plain lack of empathy. If you don't have that, you just don't communicate; at least not effectively. And when you don't communicate, you fail, regardless of your professional stature.
As Karen Morton once said during a HotSos Symposium, and a mantra I took to heart and live by the lines everyday:
Knowledge and Experience Makes you Credible
Ability to Communicate Effectively makes you Useful
Useful - that's what I and you want to be; not just credible. Thank you, Karen.

A Fund That Wins by not Losing
Preserving your capital is BBH Core Select's first goal. That makes it my kind of fund.
If the bull market that began last October continues, BBH Core Select N (symbol BBTEX) will almost certainly lag the major stock indexes. Indeed, through March 5 of this year, the fund returned 8.3%, trailing Standard & Poor's 500-stock index by 0.6 percentage point.
ORDER NOW: Mutual Funds 2012 Special Issue
But given the continued existence of huge risks to the global economy, the last thing I'm worried about is keeping pace in a bull market. I'm much more interested in investing in funds that will hold up well in a bear market or a choppy market. And in lousy markets, BBH Core Select should shine.
It certainly did in the last bear market. During the 2007-09 conflagration, BBH fell 41.1%, compared with a 55.3% loss for the S&P 500. That's one reason it's a member of the Kiplinger 25, the list of our favorite actively managed funds.
How did the fund hold up so well? The three managers and nine analysts start with a "wish list" of 160 stocks selected using stringent qualitative criteria. They hunt for companies that are leaders in growing businesses, that sell essential products and services to a loyal customer base, that boast a distinct set of competitive advantages and that are run by ethical managers who are good at allocating profits and who own substantial stock in their company. "Once you insist on these criteria, most companies don't fit," says Michael Keller, who runs the fund with Tim Hartch and Richard Witmer Jr.
From the wish list, the managers and analysts identify 25 to 30 stocks that are currently cheap enough to buy. They use a variety of tools to determine whether a stock is a bargain. They hold each stock until it reaches their estimate of full value, which typically takes about five years.
This highly disciplined process has produced a fund that has been about 20% less volatile than the S&P despite holding so few stocks. It leads the managers to stocks that are close to bulletproof -- indeed, it's hard for me to see any of them falling apart. Currently, 40% of the fund is in low-risk consumer staples and health care stocks, including Nestlé SA (NSGRY.PK), the Switzerland-based food giant; drug maker Novartis AG ADR (NVS), also based in Switzerland; and Diageo PLC (DEO), the British spirits producer. Foreign stocks account for 17% of the fund's assets.
Another 27% is in relatively simple financial stocks -- in other words, not money center banks that are too complex to understand. The fund's biggest holding, for instance, is Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A). It also owns Visa (V) and insurer Chubb (CB).
BBH Core Select owns two banks: U.S. Bancorp (USB) and Wells Fargo (WFC). "These are old-style banks that make their money from deposits and make loans to businesses and consumers," Keller says.
The managers recently bought tech giant Google (GOOG) and added to their investment in Microsoft (MSFT). The fund also owns eBay (EBAY).
Core Select is a large blend fund -- that is, it invests in stocks that display a blend of both value and growth characteristics. The stocks have market values (share price times number of shares outstanding) of $5 billion or greater. Most of the fund's holdings are significantly larger; the average market value of its stocks is $50 billion.
BBH Core Select has one negative: The managers haven't run the fund all that long. Hartch and Witmer have been in place only since October 2005, and Keller became a manager in 2008. Since 2005, the fund has excelled in years when high-quality companies have done well and lagged in 2008 and 2009, when quality stocks trailed.
A substantial portion of the fund's great five-year record stems from wonderful relative returns in 2007 and 2008. Over the past five years through March 5, the fund returned an annualized 7.7%, an average of 5.7 percentage points per year ahead of the S&P. During that same stretch, the fund ranked in the top 1% among large blend funds.
I think this fund is worth buying in spite of its relatively short record under the current managers. The fund's assets total just $1.3 billion, although the management firm runs about $10.5 billion using the core select strategy. Keller thinks the team can manage a little more than $15 billion.
BBH stands for Brown Brothers Harriman & Co., which was founded in 1818, and is the oldest and largest private bank in the U.S. Unlike such competitors as Goldman Sachs, Brown Brothers chooses not to issue shares to the public. Continued ownership by private partners gives the firm a bigger incentive to reduce risks. That's all to the good for fund investors.
The N shares have a $10,000 minimum investment, but you can invest through many online brokers for less. The expense ratio is 1%. I'd avoid the lower-minimum retail shares (BBTRX), which cost 1.25% annually.
