Drawing on a case study of two Hmong refugee populations from Laos that were resettled in a major Texas city and a German village, this article explores the different approaches to immigrant integration found in the United States and Germany as well as the outcomes for the Hmong and their sense of belonging in their new communities.

As Central American child migrant flows have returned to their precrisis level, challenges remain concerning the fate of tens of thousands of newly arrived children and families now residing in the United States pending immigration court hearings. Meanwhile, Congress has declined to authorize new funding to address the situation.
Between 1960 and 2012 the share of Canadians in the U.S. foreign-born population declined from 10 to 2 percent, while the actual number of Canadian immigrants has remained remarkably steady. Using the most up-to-date statistics, this profile examines the Canadian immigrant population by size, age, location, college education, and more.
Central American migrants have long hopped freight trains known as "La Bestia," or the beast, to get through Mexico en route to the United States. While Mexico has been accused of turning a blind eye to this traffic, U.S. outcry over the surge of unaccompanied child migrants has drawn new attention to the use of the trains. This article highlights the journey aboard the trains, the dangers faced by migrants, and responses by the Mexican government and others.
The once-tiny population of Vietnamese immigrants in the United States has grown to become the country's sixth largest foreign-born group in the span of several decades, with the first wave beginning at the end of the Vietnam War in 1975. This data profile examines the Vietnamese immigrant population by size, recency of arrival, top states and cities of settlement, college education, sending of remittances, and much more.
When Congress returns from recess in September, lawmakers will need to pick up where they left off on approving an emergency spending bill to address unaccompanied migrant children at the border. This article previews upcoming battles in Congress and analyzes how the recent border crisis is changing the broader immigration debate in the United States.
Whether as migrant-sending or migrant-receiving locations—or both—many countries have rich, complex international and internal migration histories. MPI's online journal, the Migration Information Source, offers profiles of more than 70 nations. Written by leading scholars, these profiles delve into countries' migration histories, demographics, policymaking, and more.
Use this data tool—referred to as "one addictive interactive map"—to examine immigrant populations by country of origin and destination. Find out how many Americans live in Mexico, how many Ukrainians in Russia, or Filipinos in Saudi Arabia, for example.

About 8.5 million undocumented immigrants live in the United States according to new estimates. Jeffrey Passel, Principal Research Associate at the Urban Institute, provides new insight into the numbers and the methodology.
Uprooted from their homes, but still living on their native soil, the world's 20-25 million "internally displaced persons" present a dual challenge to concepts of national sovereignty and humanitarian action. Monette Zard, Policy Analyst at the Migration Policy Institute, provides the basic facts about what now amounts to a global crisis.
Despite Japan's decade-long economic downturn, recent patterns of immigration suggest that some sectors still have a persistent demand for foreign workers. Chikako Kashiwazaki, Associate Professor at Keio University, explains why.

Kentucky Mesonet News
Kentucky Mesonet Expands to 58 Sites
The Kentucky Mesonet recently added two new observing stations. The first site is located in Meade County, about four miles southwest of Brandenburg and is near the path of the devastating tornado of April 3, 1974 that damaged numerous homes near Irvington and killed 28 people in Brandenburg. The second site is located is Marion County, approximately eight miles northwest of Lebanon near the community of Loretto.
In addition, an agreement was reached to install a new station at a valley location in Whitesburg, county seat of Letcher County. This site represents a partnership between WKU and the City of Whitesburg and will be a valuable addition to our network of ridge top and valley bottom monitoring sites in eastern Kentucky.

South Africa 49 Fiji 3
The Springboks appear to be warming up nicely for what may well turn out to be a surprise quarter-final clash with Australia, after running home six tries and claiming an all-important bonus point against the Fijians.
There was no repeat of the Marseille thriller of 2007 once the South Africans got into gear and managed to combine their rock-solid defence with greater attacking prowess that saw them playing some expansive rugby, as well as some deft kicks and chips.
The game was pretty much over by half-time for the Pacific Islanders as the men in green took a commanding 21 – 3 lead. Try-scoring contributions from PUMA's Tendai "Beast" Mtawarira, Gurthrö Steenkamp and a stand-out performance from Danie Rossouw, who broke the gain line at every invitation with powerful carries throughout sealed victory for the boks.
Highlight: Tendai Mtawarira taking the ball over from five yards out to a collective chorus of 30,000+ fans shouting "Beeeeeeaaaaaassssssttttt"!
England 41 Georgia 10
England's second visit to the Otago stadium in Dunedin brought a slightly more assured performance, but left almost as many questions for a clearly dissatisfied Martin Johnson in his post-match interviews.
Aside from a PUMA combination between Simon Shaw and Shontayne Hape resulting in a 50m sprint to the line to open England's account, the half was strewn with simple errors at the breakdown and the English were fortunate that the Georgian kicker missed three penalties in the first half alone.
Georgia's position as the best European Test team outside the Six Nations became clear and England's supporters wouldn't have been surprised to see the 80% Georgian territory statistic flash up on the big screen after thirty minutes.
Despite Georgian pressure, England maintained their lead and scored again through Shontayne Hape after building play through the phases and wearing down the Georgian pack. The deficit was reduced to seven points from a 5 metre scrum on the stroke of half-time as England were left with 14 men after a sin bin for hands in the ruck.
England returned after the break with more purpose, and the effects of two physical games in less than 96 hours took their toll as Georgia's energy waned and the England backs began to run riot. Three tries from England wingers and a third career try for PUMA's Manu Tuilagi settled the contest.
Australia 6 Ireland 15
Declan Kidney may well reflect on Ireland's abject World Cup warm up performances and feel there may have been some higher purpose for suffering that would lead them to greater glory on the 17th September 2011 in Auckland. He could also have been forgiven for mistaking Eden Park for Ireland's Dublin home; such was the magnitude of noise emanating from the Green Army inside the stadium.
The manner of Ireland's victory was just as impressive as their support, sending shockwaves through the tournament that will inspire other nations and give bookmakers headaches in the days to come. Ireland played out of their PUMA skins and dominated Australia at the scrum and in the forwards.
No tries were scored in the game, but excitement was rife as Ireland wore down the Wallabies in every area of the field with immense tackling alongside a well-retained shape from Ireland's old guard centre pairing.
Ireland's passion was epitomised by PUMA's Mike Ross scrumming the life out of his opposite number and drawing penalties that were duly converted. Tommy Bowe nearly crowned the victory with a 90 yard break at the death, though his legs gave way under the weight of exhaustion.
The win marks Ireland's first victory over a side from the southern hemisphere in the southern hemisphere and will no doubt be celebrated by their 16th man in downtown Auckland for many days to come!!
Elsewhere, Argentina brought out the sunshine in Invercargill dominating Romania and scoring six tries to complete an impressive 43 – 8 victory to keep their Pool B qualification hopes alive. The Pumas began to show some of the attacking flair that led them to finish third in 2007 with contributions from PUMA's Gonzalo Camacho, Manuel Carizza and Gennaro Fessia who closed proceedings with a fantastic 50 yard gallop to the line. The victory sets up a must-win encounter with Scotland on Sunday.
Do you think Ireland can go all the way?

Urban Studies Programs
Welcome to Urban Studies Programs at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. We are an interdisciplinary set of undergraduate and graduate programs housed in the College of Letters and Science and led by social-science faculty members from UWM's Departments of Geography, History, Political Science, and Sociology. Our programs focus on the growth and development of urban communities and social institutions in order to understand urban processes and develop policies for the resolution of contemporary social problems.
USP offers an undergraduate certificate and major and graduate Master's and Ph.D. degrees. The Urban Studies Program is one of the oldest graduate programs at UWM, with more than 500 Master's degrees conferred since the program's inception in the 1960s and over 100 doctoral degrees granted since the 1970s.
What is Urban Studies?
Broadly speaking, Urban Studies is any scholarly approach to understanding the city. UWM's Urban Studies Programs focus on social science research methods. USP students and faculty use methodological approaches including ethnographic, archival, quantitative, GIS, and survey research. We take a metropolitan view of the "urban," studying both cities and suburbs and regions. Much of the research conducted in Urban Studies is focused on the United States in general and the Milwaukee area in particular, but our faculty also includes international specialists.
For more information about the field of urban studies, see the recent discussion prompted by the Journal of Urban Affairs.
What can I do with an Urban Studies degree?
Like other degree programs housed in UWM's College of Letters and Science, Urban Studies' educational program nourishes students' broad analytical skills, with an eye toward explaining cities. Urban Studies students learn to read urban scholarship, research and understand the urban world from a social science perspective, and write in an academic way. Students interested in purely professional program should look to UWM's programs in the School of Education and the School of Architecture and Urban Planning.
Alumni of our programs take their skills into many professional arenas, including government, the non-profit sector, all levels of education, law, and the business world. The kind of critical analysis and writing skills taught in USP are transferrable to many interesting jobs where students can apply their passion for understanding metropolitan areas. See our annual Scott Greer Alumni Awards.

A moving truck blocked southbound Keswick Road in the gathering storm Monday, Oct. 29, as movers gathered all of the earthly possessions belonging to Tara and David Dunn and their daughter, Isabella.
The Hampden family was not trying to escape Hurricane Sandy, but was in the process of moving to Ontario, Canada, where David Dunn, 31, landed a job as director of contracts and procurement for Sodexo, a global food service company, according to his wife, 27.
The moving date was arranged three weeks ago and "We had no idea" a hurricane would be whacking the East Coast as they departed, said Tara Dunn, an ophthalmic technician. It's ironic, though, she said, because last year at this time, she was pregnant with Isabella, a Halloween baby, as a storm hit the Baltimore region last October.

Keswick Rd, Baltimore, MD 21211, USA
The Dunns, who have lived in the 3100 block of Keswick Road for about five years, are staying with family in Dundalk and are hoping to celebrate Isabella's first birthday Wednesday before hitting the road for Ontario on Thursday.
They expect to keep company with Hurricane Sandy.
"I think it's going to follow us up the coast," Tara Dunn said.
But the Dunns are undeterred.
"Sandy is not going to change our plans," Tara Dunn said.
The movers arrived at the Dunn row house at 7:30 a.m. and planned to be there all day, hurricane or not, said driver Jason Rumbolt, of Ontario. He drove the moving truck down to New York on Friday, unloaded one family's belongings and loaded up another's, leaving room in the truck for the Dunns.
"We're soaked to the bone, but we'll be done today," he said.
For the Dunns, the weather was an adventurous way to leave town.
"It's been fun," Tara Dunn said.

BRUNSWICK, Ga. (AP) - A used-book sale to benefit a coastal Georgia library turned up a couple of rare and valuable editions.
The Jacksonville Times-Union reports the big catch at the Friends of the Brunswick-Glynn County Library sale was a collection of magazine articles from Harper's Weekly published from 1860 to 1865. Troup Nightingale of the library boosters' group estimated the collection was worth $1,500.
Another prize among the sale's typical stock of well-worn donated books was a 1957 first-edition copy of Dr. Seuss' "How the Grinch Stole Christmas." Nightingale says the book sold for $90 but "it could be worth three times that."
Proceeds from the book sale, which ran from Wednesday through Saturday, go to the Brunswick-Glynn County Library.

Kudos to Jon Stewart about Gaza
Jewish Voice of Peace wrote: Just a few days after the bombing of Gaza started, my rabbi, Rabbi Brant Rosen here in Evanston, Illinois had the courage to write something on his blog* that may forever change his life, and the lives of those around him. As I read it, I could literally feel the earth shift beneath my feet. He said, Send a note to Jon Stewart. Tell everyone you know to watch the segment. http://www.thankyoujonstewart.com We good liberal Jews are ready to protest oppression and human-rights abuse anywhere in the world, but are all too willing to give Israel a pass. It's a fascinating double-standard, and one I understand all too well. I understand it because I've been just as responsible as anyone else for perpetrating it. So no more rationalizations. What Israel has been doing to the people of Gaza is an outrage. It has has brought neither safety nor security to the people of Israel and it has wrought nothing but misery and tragedy upon the people of Gaza. The earth is shifting on this issue when the people to whom we look for guidance about right and wrong, people like Rabbi Brant, finally speak the truth- that killing will not bring peace. Not for the Israelis, not for the Palestinians, not for anyone. Many people from my own congregation, including my own daughter, wrote him to say "Thank you, thank you for finally saying these words out loud." I felt something similar when I saw Jon Stewart on The Daily Show on Monday night. While almost all of the mainstream news in the United States has reported the story without any context whatsoever, repeating the lie that this is a simple case of Israel defending its people against irrational attacks, it was Jon Stewart, the main source of news for an entire generation of Americans, who got it right**. He talked about the "soul-crushing" siege of Gaza, the occupation that has forced Palestinians to go through checkpoints to do anything at all, the perverse logic of trying to "get a war in" just before Obama's inauguration. When I watched this segment, I knew the earth was shifting. And I knew I had to thank Jon, and to make sure everyone I know watches his segment. We all know that if every Jew in America said no to Israel's occupation of the Palesinians, it would still happen, because it has is seen as serving the interests of our country's foreign interests. And it is supported by Christian fundamentalists who believe it is one step closer to the end times. That's why we all need to work together- every single one of us. So thank Jon by going here. And then tell everyone you know to watch this video. Tell your friends that if it seems like what is happening now is wrong, that's because it is. By the way, the last haunting words of Rabbi Brant's post were ese: "There, I've said it. Now what do I do?" At Jewish Voice for Peace, it's our mandate to answer that question. We're planning a broad-based response that we know will make a difference, and the heart of that response will be every single one of you. We'll ask you to have those conversations with everyone you know, to educate yourselves, to let the world know peace with justice is possible. Stay tuned, Lynn Pollack Jewish Voice for Peace * Rabbi Brant's blog ** Israel losing the PR war (print headline)/In U.S., war of words over Gaza, San Francisco ChroniclePolitics, Uncategorized | Tags: Daily Show, Gaza, Human rights, Israelis, Jon Stewart, San Francisco Chronicle, United States, Warfare and Conflict | Comment (0)

Furniture Focus: Bohemian Style
A true Bohemian room should look like it's been furnished over decades of globetrotting and a lifetime of creative scavenging and upcycling. But how do you create this kind of space without an actual sojourn on a caravan? Here are some of the items you should look for if you're putting together a Bohemian interior.
Arguably, the most important aspect of a Bohemian interior is its textiles — rugs, curtains, blankets and pillows. But that's the easy stuff. Instead, let's focus on furniture.
1 Worn velvet couches. These must not be sheeny high-pile velvet, but low-pile stuff, preferably crushed by years of use. Image: Jozef K, a Polish coffeehouse, via Maison Bohème
2 Crates and pallets that can be used as furniture, either on their own (like the side table) or after some DIY elbow grease (like the bed). Photo by Dean Kaufman for New York Magazine
3 If you're lucky enough to have actual furniture, it should be distressed. Notice the artfully peeling paint on the cabinet and the worn upholstery on the armchair. via Brabourne Farm
4 You should probably have at least one Moroccan-style lantern, especially if the glass is colored to create an amber glow at night. Image from Lonny Mag via Coco & Kelley
5 Actually, any sort of hanging lanterns are good, especially in quantity, and if supplemented by a disco ball. Image via Coquette & Dove
6 Butterfly chairs are great Bohemian pieces because they suggest portability, travel and comfort. Roman and Williams design via Desire to Inspire
7 Loose or draped white slipcovers. Note: this image also illustrates crates as furniture and distressed décor. Image via Confetti Garden
8 There's something deliciously Bohemian about an oversized mirror leaning against a wall, but the effect is maximized by draping fairy lights over it. Design Sponge
9 Indoor hammocks are very Bohemian. Also swings. Sweet Home Style via Apartment Therapy
10 Moroccan poufs and layers of pattern, via Maison Bohème
11 Wrought iron beds, simple or ornate, repainted or left a little rusty. Via Moon to Moon
12 Or you could make your own bed out of piping. Duct tape might make it look more authentically Bohemian, but I can't recommend its safety. This gorgeous (and sturdy) one comes via Ideas to Steal
What other furniture would you include in a Bohemian interior?
Images as linked above.

This is a great post, Anna! Love, love, love these photos. Lots of great ideas and inspiration.
why not throw in some low tables if you have the room? and consider lighting beyond hanging lanterns.
i think color, pattern and texture are equally important in a bohemian space. every textile piece should deliver all three.
I love the 2nd bed for looks but i can't imagine anyone actually sleeping on it....but looks so nice.
Absolutely love that big, fat, metal table lamp in #2 although the shade could be a tad bigger.
The bohemian look is just timeless...
The bohemian look is my favorite. I especially like it when it is natural and not contrived.
These pictures make me happy.
I love #7.
I love the idea of leaning things on walls, but... whenever you have to clean up the place you have to move an oversized mirror and remove the lights to do a decent job. Yeah, right... I am sure I am not THAT motivated... Same goes for all the boxes on the floor, if they were in casters, then yeah.
As a practitioner of the Bohemian design aesthetic, I love these rooms. Nothing in my home matches, but everything has a story. Thanks for this wonderful post!
If you combined most of these images together you would have my studio apartment. Art all over the walls in no particular order? Check. Deep orange, purple, red bedspreads sheets with various decorative pillows? Check. That EXACT leaning mirror? Check. Layered carpets? Check. Curtains over my bed? Check.
so hard for this one to look natural rather than specially styled -
I also suspect if you are bohemian like this you're not meant to worry as much about cleaning around mirrors.
I only really like the last one. I guess I'm not "bohemian"...
I like all of these pictures a lot, but personally I think the most important aspect of the Bohemian style is upcycling, not necessarily textiles and such. Unless it is truly codified into only a look rather than an ideal or lifestyle. And also, even Bohemian eclecticism can become too matchy-matchy if overdone. I like this post a lot, though. The spaces seem warm and welcoming.

An error saving content can mean a lot.
What does your server errorlog say?
Do you use Firebug to monitor errors from javascripts?
You should then have more information about where the error is generated.
Re: error saving content
27 August 2009 at 7:10pm
My error log doesn´t say much.
I didn´t try firebug.
I have made a fresh instalation of silverstripe in another domain and compared the existing fields on the tables. After deleting some extra fields like editors and viewers silverstripe started worked normally.
Thank you,

I am seeing this issue a lot on one of my implementations. "Error saving content." But it only happens on the Production server and not on my testing environment or on my local instance. The code in all these places is the same, though. So the only thing I can think of is file/folder permissions?? The login for the web user is a member of the Apache group, and has write access to every folder in the SilverStripe directory.
What else could result in "Error saving content" errors? It happens when you click on Savem on any page in the site.

This is for version 2.3.4: It happened to me today: "Error saving content". It happened after I added "GoogleSitemap::enable();" to my _config.php. It went away when I deleted that line. Yes, I did a /dev/build/. I have no idea.
EDIT: All good now. My bad! I somehow assumed that doing a /dev/build/ alone would be sufficient when the GoogleSitemap code was in reach. False! One has to "GoogleSitemap::enable();" and *then* rebuild the database. Sorry for the noise ...

I ultimately determined that this error was due to DATABASE permissions-- specifically, in my case, that the DB user had not been granted DELETE rights. Each time you update a page, a DELETE in teh SiteTree_LinkTracking table is issued a DELETE command. I figured out the details of the error by setting the environment type to "dev" and then using Firebug.

LAWRENCEBURG, Ky. (AP) — A fire at a plant that crushes broken vehicle windshields for recycling has been brought under control in Lawrenceburg after sending a dark plume of smoke that could be seen in Lexington, Frankfort and other nearby communities.
No injuries were reported in the blaze Friday afternoon, and no evacuations were necessary. Dlubak Glass Co. Secretary Amanda Hillard told the Lexington Herald-Leader (http://bit.ly/121lTQ2 ) that the company's nine employees were out for lunch when the fire started shortly after noon.
The fire involved a large pile of shredded glass and vinyl. Firefighters took about two hours to bring the fire under control, and it briefly rekindled before being extinguished again.
The cause wasn't immediately determined, but Lawrenceburg Fire Department spokesman Robbie Hume said there was no reason to suspect foul play.

Unlike most artists, Kacey Musgraves rarely has to say goodbye to her boyfriend since he's also a member of her band. Kacey and her beau, Misa Arriaga , came together as musical partners before things turned romantic.
Kacey tells ABC News Radio, "We were friends for a couple years at least before seeing each other in that kind of light. It just so happens that we are really inspired by the same things."
Kacey relies on Misa for a lot of creative ideas as well as moral support as her star continues to rise.
"He really helps me keep my vision true to what it was in the beginning before anything really took off," Kacey explains, "and I think there's really something to be said for that."
While Kacey loves having Misa on the road with her, they do need their alone time just like any other couple.
She adds, "We have our moments. You know, 'Get out of my face! We're stuck on a tour bus together!' But it's really cool."
Kacey heads to Winnipeg Wednesday night as an opening act on Lady Antebellum 's Take Me Downtown tour. Kip Moore is also on the bill.

Aims. Approach observations with the Optical, Spectroscopic, and Infrared Remote Imaging System (OSIRIS) experiment onboard Rosetta are used to determine the rotation period, the direction of the spin axis, and the state of rotation of comet 67P's nucleus.
Methods. Photometric time series of 67P have been acquired by OSIRIS since the post wake-up commissioning of the payload in March 2014. Fourier analysis and convex shape inversion methods have been applied to the Rosetta data as well to the available ground-based observations.
Results. Evidence is found that the rotation rate of 67P has significantly changed near the time of its 2009 perihelion passage, probably due to sublimation-induced torque. We find that the sidereal rotation periods P1 = 12.76129 ± 0.00005 h and P2 = 12.4043 ± 0.0007 h for the apparitions before and after the 2009 perihelion, respectively, provide the best fit to the observations. No signs of multiple periodicity are found in the light curves down to the noise level, which implies that the comet is presently in a simple rotation state around its axis of largest moment of inertia. We derive a prograde rotation model with spin vector J2000 ecliptic coordinates λ = 65° ± 15°, β = + 59° ± 15°, corresponding to equatorial coordinates RA = 22°, Dec = + 76°. However, we find that the mirror solution, also prograde, at λ = 275° ± 15°, β = + 50° ± 15° (or RA = 274°, Dec = + 27°), is also possible at the same confidence level, due to the intrinsic ambiguity of the photometric problem for observations performed close to the ecliptic plane.

The 39th meeting of the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) was held 14-22 July 2012 in Mysore, India.
This report to COSPAR on the scientific activities of the European Space Agency was written by members of the Directorate of Earth Observation, the Directorate of Human Spaceflight and Operations and the Directorate of Science and Robotic Exploration.
Methods. We obtained BVRI photometric and V-band polarimetric measurements over a wide range of phase angles, and visible and infrared spectra in the 0.4-2.4 micron range. We analyze them with previously published data to retrieve information about Lutetia's surface properties.
Results. Values of lightcurve amplitudes, absolute magnitude, opposition effect, phase coefficient, and BVRI colors of Lutetia surface seen at near pole-on aspect are determined. We define more precisely parameters of polarization phase curve and show their distinct deviation from any other moderate-albedo asteroid. An indication of possible variations in both polarization and spectral data across the asteroid surface are found. To explain features found by different techniques, we propose that (i) Lutetia has a non-convex shape, probably due to a large crater, and heterogeneous surface properties probably related to surface morphology; (ii) at least part of the surface is covered by a fine-grained regolith of particle size smaller than 20 micron; (iii) the closest meteorite analogues of Lutetia's surface composition are particular types of carbonaceous chondrites, or Lutetia has specific surface composition that is not representative among studied meteorites.
Context. In July 2010 the ESA spacecraft Rosetta will fly by the main belt asteroid 21 Lutetia. Several observations of this asteroid have been performed so far, but its surface composition and nature are still a matter of debate. For a long time Lutetia was supposed to have a metallic nature due to its high IRAS albedo. Later on it has been suggested that the asteroid has a surface composition similar to primitive carbonaceous chondrite meteorites, while further observations proposed a possible genetic link with more evolved enstatite chondrite meteorites.
Aims. We performed visible spectroscopic observations of 21 Lutetia in November 2008 at the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG, La Palma, Spain) to make a decisive contribution to solving the conundrum of its nature.
Methods. Thirteen visible spectra were acquired at different rotational phases and subsequently analyzed.
Results. We confirm a narrow spectral feature at about 0.47-0.48 microns which was already found by Lazzarin et al. (2004, A&A, 425, L25) in the spectra of Lutetia. We also confirm an earlier find of Lazzarin et al. (2004), who detected a spectral feature at about 0.6 microns in one of their Lutetia's spectra. More remarkable is the difference of our spectra though, which exhibit different spectral slopes between 0.6 and 0.75 microns and, in particular, we found that up to 20% of the Lutetia surface could have flatter spectra.
Conclusions. We detected a variation of the spectral slopes at different rotational phases that could be interpreted as possibly due to differences in the chemical/mineralogical composition as well as to inhomogeneities of the structure of the Lutetia's surface (e.g., to craters or albedo spots) in the southern hemisphere.
Aims.The aim of this paper is to investigate the surface composition of the two asteroids 21 Lutetia and 2867 Steins, targets of the Rosetta space mission.
Methods.We observed the two asteroids through their full rotational periods with the Infrared Spectrograph of the Spitzer Space Telescope to investigate the surface properties. The analysis of their thermal emission spectra was carried out to detect emissivity features that diagnose the surface composition.
Results. For both asteroids, the Christiansen peak, the Reststrahlen, and the Transparency features were detected. The thermal emissivity shows a clear analogy to carbonaceous chondrite meteorites, in particular to the CO-CV types for 21 Lutetia, while for 2867 Steins, already suggested as belonging to the E-type asteroids, the similarity to the enstatite achondrite meteorite is confirmed.
Context: In 2004 asteroid (2867) Steins has been selected as a flyby target for the Rosetta mission. Determination of its spin period and the orientation of its rotation axis are essential for optimization of the flyby planning.
Aims: Measurement of the rotation period and light curve of asteroid (2867) Steins at a phase angle larger than achievable from ground based observations, providing a high quality data set to contribute to the determination of the orientation of the spin axis and of the pole direction.
Methods: On March 11, 2006, asteroid (2867) Steins was observed continuously for 24 h with the scientific camera system OSIRIS onboard Rosetta. The phase angle was 41.7 degrees, larger than the maximum phase angle of 30 degrees when Steins is observed from Earth. A total of 238 images, covering four rotation periods without interruption, were acquired.
Results: The light curve of (2867) Steins is double peaked with an amplitude of 0.23 mag. The rotation period is 6.052 +- 0.007 h. The continuous observations over four rotation periods exclude the possibility of period ambiguities. There is no indication of deviation from a principal axis rotation state. Assuming a slope parameter of G = 0.15, the absolute visual magnitude of Steins is 13.05 +/- 0.03.
Aims. We present the first albedo determination of 2867 Steins, the asteroid target of the Rosetta space mission together with 21 Lutetia.
Methods.The data were obtained in polarimetric mode at the ESO-VLT telescope with the FORS1 instrument in the V and R filters. Observations were carried out from June to August 2005 covering the phase angle range from 10.3 degrees to 28.3 degrees, allowing the determination of the asteroid albedo by the well known experimental relationship between the albedo and the slope of the polarimetric curve at the inversion angle.
Results. The measured polarization values of Steins are small, confirming an E-type classification for this asteroid, as already suggested from its spectral properties. The inversion angle of the polarization curve in the V and R filters is respectively of 17.3±1.5 degrees and 18.4±1.0 degrees, and the corresponding slope parameter is of 0.037±0.003%/deg and 0.032±0.003%/deg. On the basis of its polarimetric slope value, we have derived an albedo of 0.45±0.1, that gives an estimated diameter of 4.6 km, assuming an absolute V magnitude of 13.18 mag.

Canadian Roads Being Closed For Toads
August 6, 2011 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
CHILLIWICK, British Columbia, Aug. 6 (UPI) — Two roads Canada's British Columbia, are being closed for the annual migration of baby western toads, officials say.
Ryder Lake and Elk View roads in Chilliwack will be closed with what locals call "toad blocks" for a few hours each day for the next two weeks, the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. reported Friday.
About 1 million baby toads, about the size of a fingernail, will make the migration from the lake areas where they are born to wooded areas where they will live their adult lives.
The Fraser Valley Conservancy coordinated the road shutdowns with the city of Chilliwack to avoid the slaughter of the toads experienced in years past.
"[Residents] were using snow shovels to move the carcasses off the road," said Conservancy Executive Director Lisa Fox.

The companies that are good at it are largely at the poles of fashion. Designers names such as Gucci or Prada use their megawatt brands to open doors overseas while retailers on the low-end expand their geographic base by driving efficiencies and playing the price game. (Wal-Mart, with sales of $444 billion last year, is the master of this and is now moving into Africa, in part because it has very few other places to go.)
The vast middle of fashion, at least in the U.S., seems to be more interested in stealing growth from their competitors and teasing investors with a few leased locations overseas. Gap is an exception with a big international base, as is Abercrombie & Fitch, although that brand is still trying to get out of its own way as it expands.
Whatever the difficulties, more fashion companies are going to have to stride out and meet the world. The growth in developing markets, even if predictions are two-times too optimistic, will eventually force their hand -- or investors will gravitate to companies with a global reach.
Already consumer-oriented companies with their feet wet in global markets are crowing about the possibilities.
The global middle class consists of 1.8 billion people today, but will swell to 3.2 billion people by 2020 and 5 billion in 2030, said Jon Moeller, Procter & Gamble's chief financial officer, at the recent Barclays Back-to-School Global Consumer Conference.
Over 98 percent of these new middle class consumers will be in developing markets, he said. And Americans, who now make up 20 percent of all middle-class spending, will account for just 8 percent of the middle class consumer pie by 2030.
"We are potentially on the precipice of one of the biggest trade-in and trade-up cycles in history," Moeller said. "We need to, have been and will position ourselves to exploit this." The big today are going to be even bigger tomorrow.

This Tech Giant Is Still Building a Competitive Ecosystem
Reuben is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) just cut prices on the Surface and wrote down nearly $1 billion worth of the tablet's inventory. Is this an admission that the Surface is a flop, or is it just this tech giant's way of gearing up for a long-term fight?
There's little question that Microsoft has been late to the mobile party. It tried to break into the group with a mobile operating system, but it didn't take off. As it retooled, however, it took a close look at competitor Apple and decided it was best to start looking more like a winner.
One of Apple's big strengths is that it creates easy to use interfaces for its iPhone, iPad, and iPod products. Moreover, it has something of an ecosystem in which customers can comfortably live. With simple to use products that work out of the box, Apple's success over the last decade has been nothing short of extraordinary.
That "easy ecosystem" model has allowed Apple to grow its top line from around $6 billion a decade ago to about $156 billion in 2012. Earnings, meanwhile, have gone from a dime a share to over $44.00 a share. That said, it has pretty much saturated a mature market. That means market share is key and it is battling with fierce competitors like Samsung, Google, and increasingly Microsoft.
Investors have sent the shares down some 40% from their highs. The stock yields around 2.8% and has a price to earnings ratio of about 11, or so. The company faces challenges in finding new customers or enticing existing customers to buy more, but its industry leading position and still massive earnings should afford it plenty of time to solve these issues.
The takeaway
The takeaway for Microsoft was clearly that its products were too hard to use and didn't play well together. So, it has created a uniform appearance across its products with the introduction of Windows 8 and Windows Mobile. Now, customers can buy a phone, computer, and a tablet and easily switch between them.
That's a big thing, since, according to CFO Amy Hood, the company has "over 1.5 billion Windows users around the world..." Although every one of those customers may not like Windows, there's clearly enough users to create a real business if Microsoft can get them to buy into the ecosystem. It's just going to take time and commitment.
Like Apple, Microsoft makes plenty of money. It had $73 billion in revenue in 2012, with earnings of about $2.00 a share. In the just ended 2013 fiscal year, the company's earnings jumped to $2.58 a share. Granted Microsoft's top line is about half of Apple's and its bottom line isn't nearly as impressive (it has over eight times as many shares), the Window's giant has plenty of financial firepower to push its ecosystem approach. And with a mid-teens PE, it appears reasonably priced.
A little help from friends
A big part of the ecosystem that Microsoft is building is Windows Mobile. That will require phone companies to partner with the Windows giant. It paid struggling Nokia (NYSE: NOK) to use Windows Mobile as the also-ran cell phone maker tried to relaunch its smartphone line with the Lumia. The phone has been well received for looks and functionality, which is good. However, it hasn't sold particularly well.
That's a bad thing for Nokia, where revenue has been falling since 2007. Worse, it has lost money in each of the last two years, and the first two quarters of this year haven't reversed that trend. Moreover, as it focused on the Lumia launch, it let competitors gain ground in emerging markets -- the one area in which it remained a leader. Investors should avoid the company.
For Microsoft, however, the Lumia has been a huge win. It allowed the company to showcase Windows Mobile at exactly the same time as Google has become more combative with its mobile partners via the soon to be launched Moto X phone. Samsung is trying to use its own OS, dubbed Tizen, to limit its reliance on Google's Android, but other companies would probably rather partner with an existing mobile OS than build from scratch.
Not an easy turn
Microsoft isn't making an easy pivot. However, now is a good time to be making it. Although the mobile industry looks "mature," it's really still in its infancy. With a huge customer base and a still highly profitable business, Microsoft's recent earnings induced price drop of over 10% looks like an overreaction. Investors should take a second look at the Windows ecosystem, looking at the Surface price drop not as a sign of weakness, but as a way to gain market share.

Romney Merchandise On Clearance
November 28, 2012 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
ARLINGTON, Va., (UPI) — Retailers in Virginia and online are selling off merchandise from Mitt Romney's failed presidential bid at discount prices.
Merchandise bearing the former Republican nominee's name or likeness was shelved in the clearance section of the America! store at Reagan International Airport in Arlington, Va., selling for 75 percent off the original prices, ABC News reported Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Walmart's online store is offering Romney's books for 35 percent off.
The Romney campaign's official website is still selling merchandise for full price, but is currently offering free shipping.

Sharks sweat over Beast
Sharks boss John Plumtree has admitted concern over whether Springbok prop Tendai Mtawarira will be fit for the start of the season.
Matwarira was forced to return home from South Africa's November tour after after mild heart palpitations in the build-up to the Test with Ireland.
The prop is suffering from an irregular intermittent heart problem and has undergone two procedures in recent years.
"We've lost Dale [Chadwick] for four to six weeks with a stress fracture in his foot," said Plumtree to the Sharks' website.
"We can't afford to have any upsets with Beast [Mtawarira] now, we lost him for a long period last year.
"So there is a little bit of pressure there, but I am excited about Allan Dell, he's a good young prop coming through our system."
"I am well, so there is really no need to worry," said Mtawarira.
"The procedure went well. It's only a minor procedure and sometimes it needs to be done more than once to clear the palpitations. This is something that has happened to me before and that can be treated. Also, it's not career-threatening.
"Sometimes I get quite excited before a game and that is probably what triggered it."

Software | Usability
I got an iPad mainly for reading books in pdf format. I also convert other document formats to pdf to be read on the iPad. For this it was crucial for me to find a pdf reader which satisfied my reading needs.
My requirements for a pdf reader:
I consider these requirements very important for myself.
The big problem with the iPad and the AppStore is that most of the non free apps are available for purchase only. They are not available as trial software or expire after some period of time like software on a PC. I guess when most apps cost $.99, people don't mind buying them and dispose of them when not needed!
I purchased a few readers and downloaded all the free ones and tested all of these.
Here are my findings:
iAnnontate is an excellent pdf reader. The only annoying feature in it is if you touch the screen for more than a second the scrolling gets locked. So to scroll you have to swipe and lift your finger quickly. PDFReader Pro doesn't suffer from this

Comments On Jul 23, 2014:I got a pair of these back in February. First impressions are wow, these things are heavy and STIFF! I spent a week walking around in them and wondered if they would ever loosen up. I had to adjust the shifters on all of my bikes.
Anyway... after some time, they did finally start softening up. Now they're very nice. Almost as comfortable as my Sidi Adventures. My only complaint is that they can be tough to get on and off because they're so big and stiff, but it's worth it. I love the protection!

Comments On Jun 12, 2014:I purchased these boots a year ago and was initially impressed with the quality. However, they are very tight in the toe box area. I thought they would loosen up some with time but thathey have become so painful to wear and have caused me to get a union on my small toe. This has never happened in my life. now I guess I need to sell them. I have owned the sidi charger boots and loved them. I don't have wide feet either. I think the srs sole is just too thin at the toe area.

Comments On May 23, 2014:These boots Are worth every penny!! I've been using Alpinestars tec 10s for the last 15years and they not even close to being as good as these I only wish I bought Sidi 15yerars ago ill never buy any other boot again!!

Comments On Apr 05, 2014:I'd like to start off by saying I've only put about 8-9 rides on these guys. Both track and enduro.
This boot came out of the box with more comfort than any of the fox or AS boots I've owned had in their entire lifetime. But the feel is what blew me away about these boots. Shifting and braking has never been so effortless. I can also grip the bike better and can tell where my feet are planted on the pegs. I love the hinged design as well. I feel the buckles will hold up far better than my fox boots did.
Only down side would be the price. The fact that I can replace warn parts, including the sole, easily and myself caused me to spend the extra cash.
The only vulnerable point with these boots are the toe area when on tight, rocky, wooded enduro type rides. You may want to consider Sidi's other style of crossfire if that's your main type of ride.
Almost went 4 star due to price, but I feel they are worth every penny after a few rides. I'll try to update the review when I start replacing parts.

Comments On Mar 06, 2014:Comfortable, adjustable, snug, heavy protection. These boots require zero break in time. I will never buy another set of boots, just replace the replaceable components to these boots.

Comments On Feb 05, 2014:My last Sidi's lasted over 10 years. Comfortable to ride with from day 1, no break in and all top notch hardware.

Comments On Jan 10, 2014:I tried on 3 Big Brand High end Boots and these were by far the most comfortable right out of the box. If you can spend the extra cash i say go with these. We'll see over time how they wear but i'm hoping they last longer then my last big A boots.

Comments On Dec 15, 2013:I just couldn't get the fit right on these. After years in SG10's I wanted a change but these boots just don't fit my foot. 10's to cramped and 11's too big. The quality seems good enough, but the feel is not as good as the SG 10's in my opinion, more of a ski boot type feel. One positive is these are a lot lighter, and I think if I could have got the fit dialed in these would have been great.

Comments On Dec 02, 2013:I purchased a pair of the Crossifre 2's last year after drinking the KoolAid.. To date, I've had to replace 3 soles and I'm only a weekend desert rider. The soles wear entirely too fast and begin to chew into the soles harder plastic foundation after only a few rides (especially at the arch of the foot). The boots (I have black) fit tight and get entirely too hot in the summer---My foot feels like a baking potato while riding. Perhaps its because lack of ventilation, and my foot size (12 boot) but I've never had a problem with competing boots. Additionally, the soles are very slippery and don't get good traction if you're in a situation when you have to walk your bike on a steep trail. Overall, I'm very disappointed. Sidi has refused to help and I've resorted to using my old reliable boots. I won't name who's are better because I will let you be the judge. I just wanted to write a real life review.

SAINT LOUIS – David Perron's return to action Saturday night was eagerly anticipated by the Blues' fan base—and Perron did not disappoint. Just 6:41 into the first period, Perron buried his first goal of the season against Chicago Blackhawk goaltender Ray Emery. Perron's goal was not enough, though, as the Hawks scored five, defeating the Blues 5-2.
The Blues were in control of the game flow in the first period, ending the period with a lead. The Hawks came out with a vengeance in the second. While cycling the puck in the Blues' zone, Patrick Kane found Niklas Hjalmarsson on the point. He fired the shot, which was deflected in off the stick of Jonathan Toews. After tying the game less than one minute into the second, the Hawks regained momentum and dictated the game pace for most of the remaining game.
After Toews's goal, the Blues netted a second go-ahead goal. Vladimir Sobotka parked himself along the half-boards, then slid the puck to Chris Stewart in the left circle. Stewart wristed the puck over Emery's glove hand. The goal was Stewart's first in nine games.
However, after Marian Hossa tied the game at 12:11 of the second on a short-handed goal, the Hawks would never look back. He would net another, and Patrick Sharp and Michael Frolik (EN) rounded out the Hawks' scoring.
"We played nervous and light at times…under pressure with the puck. Good teams eat you up if you do that," said Ken Hitchcock in his post-game media address. Hitchcock noted that Saturday night's performance provided him with "teaching moments"—he would seize that opportunity, address his team's weaknesses, and move forward.
Blues goalie Brian Elliott sustained just his second loss of the year, yet he made 31 saves. The Blues were outshot 36 to 25.
Special teams were the game breaker for the Blues. The team allowed two power play goals and one short-handed goal, while going 0 for 4 on the power play.
The Blues will take on the Detroit Red Wings Tuesday night at home. Game time is 6:30 p.m. CST and the game airs on Versus.
Odds & Ends
- Saturday night's loss snapped a 4-0-1 run for the Blues' in their previous five games.
- The Blues are 2 for 33 on the power play in their last nine games. In that time, they have given up as many short-handed goals.
- The Blues are now 1-1 against the Blackhawks this season. The teams will meet four more times throughout the season.
- This is just the second regulation loss for the Blues in 13 games since Ken Hitchcock took the reigns. In that time frame, the Blues have secured 19 points (of 26 possible).
- The Blues reassigned Cade Fairchild and Brett Sterling to Peoria Saturday.
- This marked the first time Elliott has allowed more than two goals in any start.

Back in the 1970s and 80s, Everglades paddlers commonly covered the 13 miles or so from Flamingo to East Cape Sable using the Homestead Canal to avoid the sometimes windy and powerboat-riddled open waters of Florida Bay. Although man-made and mostly straight, the canal provided a pleasant, back country wilderness experience on the way to setting up camp on the Cape.
But nobody has been able to use that route for a very long time. In 1992, Hurricane Andrew's winds toppled mangroves and other vegetation, making passage difficult, and Hurricane Wilma's 2005 assault blocked it completely.
A couple of years after Wilma, a volunteer group calling itself the Swamp Apes, led by Plantation engineer Tom Rahill, launched a project to clear the Homestead Canal from Flamingo to Bear Lake, including a loop trail through Mud Lake. The Swamp Apes got the job done, but the section of the canal between Bear Lake and Gator Lake remains impassable today. It seemed like the only way to get from Flamingo to East Cape was by crossing Florida Bay — not always a fun prospect in the typically blustery winter months that are best for camping in the Glades.
But all that changed last weekend.
Three Everglades explorers — Terry Helmers, Jay Thomas and Bill Evans — in a daylong paddle Saturday found an obscure, intermediate-level, natural path entirely within the back country that led them from Bear Lake all the way to Gator Lake — a distance of about 6 1/2 miles — with only one short portage. I paddled along with them, and when we made the discovery, I think we all felt a little like astronaut Neil Armstrong stepping on the moon for the first time. It wasn't necessary for us to cross Gator Lake and continue on to East Cape Sable to prove the point because that path is already open and accessible.
"We not only found a replacement inland route, but what we found is better than the old route used before it became impassable," Helmers said.
And here's a bonus heads-up to anglers: Bear Lake and the unnamed adjacent lake to the west are full of fish — snook, redfish, and tarpon. We didn't spend much time trying to catch them because we were on a mission, but if you make a day out of it, you are likely to be successful.
Setting out in three canoes from the dock beside the Swamp Apes' well-manicured trail took us practically no time to reach Bear Lake. But Helmers, Thomas and Evans wanted to see if it was possible to continue west on the Homestead Canal. After clawing our way through maybe 100 yards of fallen trees in an hour, we gave up.
"All I see is wood," Evans said. "It looks like a lumber yard."
Armed with Google maps of the region and multiple GPS units, we emerged from the blocked canal into Bear Lake, hugging the mangrove shoreline as we paddled west, continuing into an unnamed body of water we dubbed "West Bear Lake" — an angler's paradise that I departed reluctantly.
Next came the hard part — trying to find the narrowest land barrier to cross to get into Gator Lake. After skirting several extremely shallow mud bars, we spotted a small, creek-like opening blocked by a three-foot mat of pneumatophores, or black mangrove roots. We simply pulled our canoes over them and started looking for the clearest path to continue west.
Evans found a narrow waterway that twisted north then west with a few minor blockades easily pushed aside to emerge in a shallow bay where we spooked a roseate spoonbill. Naming this small but important waterway Spoonbill Pass, we continued west to Gator Lake and stopped for lunch, very pleased with ourselves.
"Once you get to Gator Lake, you can get to Cape Sable," Helmers said.
Returning to the Bear Lake put-in was much quicker than the trip out since we simply backtracked using our GPS coordinates. As we re-entered Spoonbill Pass, a red-shouldered hawk greeted us from atop the mangroves. (Note to birders: you should definitely check this route out.)
Reflecting on the day, I remembered that when the Swamp Apes were clearing the Bear Lake Trail a couple of years ago, they said they hoped someday to unblock the entire Homestead Canal all the way to East Cape. But our discovery last weekend renders that project unnecessary.
"Now that we know Spoonbill Pass exists, write off the Homestead Canal," Helmers said. "We don't need it. This was it."

Tak is an Irken Invader who's main goal is to take Zim's "mission" because Zim had ruined her training as an Invader. Vicious and determined, she is more focused on trying to gain for herself an honorable title as an Invader than revenge; Zim just happens to be in the way of getting it. Currently she is less focused on that, but still carries her hate for Zim, but seems more invested with Gaz, even being something close to friends with her.

Differences in earnings by sex, race, and Hispanic origin
