NOV 17th is going to be a Problem!! rest up now, drink plenty of fluids. @tittsworth Rez, Dez, 814ofcouse and myself are going in at Uhall. I feel sorry for your Sunday morning. #ZebraBitch #DC #Moombahton #nofilter #tits #edm
I always saved a Chuck Brown for last when the lights came on and everyone in the club would leave with a smile on their face RIP #ChuckBrown #DC #gogo (Taken with instagram)
Holy Bacon Party, it's back! The Moombacon Massive is going down Sunday January 15th (MLK Sunday) This time with 30 Fucking pounds of bacon, Fried Chicken, Ribs, and condoms for you filthy sailors. ALL FREE ALL NIGHT!
U Hell is this Saturday at Uhall. Bunch of DJ's including my favorite cellmates, Quincy & Cian. Going to be a lot of high fives given out.
Tonight is for the Moombahton Heads downstairs at Rock & Roll Hotel. Show is FREE ALL NIGHT
This Friday marks the first installment of Reed Rothchild's Official Takeover of Rock & Roll Hotel and the Clockwork party! He's got mad guests comin' through like my homies Uncle Jesse, Starks and Nacey, and this dude, Jon Kwest. To get you ready for this shit show, I've got a free EP for you, "Footwork Vol. 1". If you like Jon Kwest, James Blake, or just good music in general, jump over here to see what it's all about!
Thanks Facebook, for reminding me that this picture went down about 2 years ago…. That is a sweet ass though.
You know Reed Rothchild's in the house if you smell the smoky deliciousness of freshly cooked bacon wafting in the air. Yeeeeeahhhh buddy! It's always time for bacon when Reed Rothchild is around. He loves bacon so much that he comes equipped to each of his shows with a bag of delicious bacon, or what he's now dubbed as Rave Bacon. Now tell me, how many DJs do you know who will feed you a tasty breakfast side dish while you rage to his tunes? I only know of one. The Baconator himself, Reed Rothchild.
Rothchild is one of the most fun and diverse DJs I've seen in the DC area. He literally plays EVERYTHING. No matter where he plays, whether it's at Starscape, Mega, or any other Steez Promo rave, you'll hear a nice mix of moombahton, electro, hip-hop, and Baltimore club. He's all over the place, in a good way. He'll keep you interested all night and he actually looks like he has fun doing it. The energy transfers very well. One of my favorite events he throws is his bi-monthly party, Reed vs. Reed, at Little Miss Whiskeys in DC, where he teams up with Obeyah for an all-night jam session of drunken debauchery. Little Miss Whiskeys crafts up this deceptively tasty creeper house drink that'll put you on that next level. Combine that with Rothchild's expert selecting and you really have a night you couldn't forget even if you wanted to.
On that note, this Sunday we'll be celebrating a magical holiday also known as Reed Rothchild's Birthday. He's made it to see thirty years on this here Planet Earth all while keeping that boyish figure. I dunno how he does it but it might have something to do with the breakfast mafia so I don't ask questions. Either way, he'll be throwing a birthday rager at Rock & Roll Hotel in DC called Moombacon Massive. (See what he did there?) The party starts at 8PM and if you get there early, you can even join him in a Feast of the Godz featuring fried chicken and bacon. If that doesn't give you a heart attack, check out this killer line-up of DJs - Baltimore club legend Scottie B, King Tutt, James Nasty, Uncle Jesse, DJ Smudge, Keenan, Denman, and the birthday boy himself. One look at the line-up and amenities and it feels more like a gift to us than it is to him but I think he really gets off on watching people get gluttonous in the club. I'm not mad at that. Party on, Garth.
Fun Bonus Fact: Moombacon Massive also serves as a celebration of the re-launch of his notoriously hilarious corner of the World Wide Web, Head of Rothchild. HOR serves as a bacon-centric hub of disgustingly delicious recipes, sophisticated critiques of shitty MySpace rappers, and all that other weird Internet shit. HOR is gut-wrenching on the regular, either from constant uproarious laughter or the thought that your insides might explode if you ate anything he cooks up, like The Dog Child (WHAT IS THAT?!). But now he's taking one step closer towards world domination by adding a rack of like-minded individuals who are eager to contribute to the Power of Pork. And your girl might could be involved in that. ;)
So in the interest of really getting to know The Baconator, I hassled The Man for a little bit of information. This is me sharing the wealth. Below, we talk about Baltimore club, bacon, and what we can do to prepare ourselves for Sunday's Moombacon Massive.
SUNDAY, SEPT 4TH ROCK & ROLL HOTEL Come out and eat a ton of bacon while some of the most BUCK Dj's in the area help you somewhat work it off. Also, celebrating the fact I actually made it to 30 years old and kicking off the new look, new staff, new everything with the HEADofROTHCHILD.com Blog. FREE all god damn night + FREE Bacon, FREE Fried Chicken, and FREE condoms (gotta take care of the sailors too)
This past Friday night, Steez Promo hosted the second installment of MEGA, a super massive rave held at Ibiza in DC. Almost three thousand party people came through this month and these dudes did a great job of holdin' errybody down:
That's Reed Rothchild's BacOn Face.

Now weighing about 3 pounds (1,400 grams) and measuring about 10.8 inches (27 cm) from crown to rump, your baby continues to gain weight and layers of fat. This fat makes the baby look less wrinkly and will help provide warmth after birth.
In preparation for respiration after birth, your baby will mimic breathing movements by repeatedly moving the diaphragm. Your baby can even get the hiccups, which you may feel as rhythmic twitches in your uterus.
Constipation is a common complaint of pregnancy. The pregnancy hormones that allow you to maintain your pregnancy also slow the digestive process considerably. Exercising regularly and eating foods high in fiber, such as vegetables and whole grains, are great ways to keep everything regular.

Low-flying Blackhawk helicopters buzzed the Chicago skies Monday night, sparking speculation on social media and leaving many to wonder if the city was under attack.
Witnesses described several "dark" helicopters flying in formation with their lights off, circling several the Willis Tower and River North area around 6 p.m.
On Facebook, multiple stories ranged from a movie shoot to training for the "Air and Water Show." Some even pondered if it was extra security for the Jay Z and Justin Timberlake concert at Soldier Field. Still, a few couldn't help but think the city was being invaded.
Not to fret, though - it's only a drill. The city is providing support for routine military training exercises around the area.
This training happens across the country and is designed to ensure the military's ability to operate in urban environments, as service members meet mandatory training certification requirements and prepare for upcoming overseas deployments.
A statement from the city's Office of Emergency Management ensures that "the training sites have been carefully selected to minimize the impact on the daily routine of residents."
The training runs from July 22 to July 25 and is not open to the public.

The Voice of the Crimson Tide, Eli Gold, is expressing sorrow after the loss of former Alabama Athletics Director, Mal Moore. Gold posted a sign reading, "Rest in peace, Coach Moore," outside of the Pelham restaurant he co-owns.
Gold says Moore will be remembered for all of his accomplishments as athletics director, but he will also remember him because of the type of man he was. He says the Bama Ad was a class act who was well known beyond state lines.
"When Mal Moore talked, you listened. When you hear AD after AD, and from coach after coach, in a totally different quadrant of the country, you realize his reputation as great as we know him to be, had also spread to every corner of the country," said Gold.
Gold says he will also remember Moore for how he cared for his wife, Charlotte, during her lengthy battle with Alzheimer's.
Funeral arrangements are still pending.

June 2009 Sky from the Keeble Observatory
Last month we wrote about the "dipole anisotropy" in the cosmic microwave background
radiation field. This results from our motion through the universe, making half
the sky a fraction of a degree cooler and the other half a fraction warmer than
the 2.725 K temperature of the sky. If your eyes were sensitive to microwaves, it
would look something like this:
(image courtesy of NASA/COBE Science Team), which represents the
entire sky projected in "galactic coordinates" – the plane of the Milky Way bisects
the long axis of the image. This represents about four years' data collection by
a satellite called the Cosmic Background Explorer, aka COBE, which was launched
in 1989.
The red regions are cooler, the blue are hotter (red shift and blue shift due to
the Doppler effect) by about .003 Kelvin compared to the overall average temperature.
A more recent experiment, the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) accumulated
five years of data at a much finer angular resolution. After subtracting the dipole
anisotropy and the microwave emission from our own Galaxy, their results looked
like this (image courtesy NASA/WMAP Science Team):
The "wrinkles" in this image represent temperature difference on the order of .0002
K, or fluctuations of roughly one part in 10,000 about the average. What do these
tell us?
First, they tell us that there was already structure in the universe at the time
of decoupling of matter from radiation, i.e. when the universe became transparent.
It is this structure which led ultimately to the formation of galaxies and stars.
Analysis of the angular scale of these fluctuations constrains our models of the
early universe. They tell us that the ordinary matter which surrounds us and of
which we are made represent only about 4% of everything that's actually there. The
rest consists of still mysterious stuff called "dark matter" and "dark energy."
Calling them dark means that they don't interact with light, but we can still tell
of their presence by their gravitational interactions. We need dark matter to hold
the Galaxy together, for example, since the mass of all the stars and gas and dust
is insufficient. Dark energy is what drives the accelerating expansion of the whole
universe. Their exact nature remains the subject of ongoing research, both theoretical
and observational.
Lunar phases for June: Full Moon on the 7th, at 2:12; Last Quarter
on the 15th, at 6:15 6m; New Moon on the 22nd, at 3:35 pm;
First Quarter on the 29th, at 7:28 am.
Early risers will have an array of planets to watch – Mercury, Mars, Venus, and
Jupiter are all up in the predawn sky. To the east, the brightest object before
sunrise will be Venus, only a few degrees above and to the right of red Mars. Venus
will be at its greatest apparent separation (known as maximum western elongation)
from the Sun on the 5th, and then begin slowly drifting back closer.
They'll get closer as the month progresses. Below and to the right of this bright
pair, you may see Mercury low on the horizon. It will climb higher as July approaches.
Jupiter is already high to the south at sunrise. With a modest telescope you may
see Neptune close by. Both will drift toward the southwest and lower by month's
end. Evening planet watchers will have magnificent Saturn for the whole month. Look
high to the south as evening twilight shifts to night. Early in June you'll be able
to watch Saturn for about six hours until it sets; by the end of the month it emerges
from twilight more to the southwest, and sets about 4 hours later.
An overhead view at mid-month, about two hours after sunset, finds the constellation
Bootes (the Herdsman) at zenith. The brightest star in this large constellation,
Arcturus (or alpha Bootes) lies nearly 20 degrees to the south-southwest. Further
to the west we find Saturn, nearly thirty degrees above and to the left of Regulus
(alpha Leo). Turning toward the northwest, you will see the familiar "Big Dipper"
of Ursa Major, with its handle (or tail) almost vertical. Ursa Minor, the "Little
Dipper" lies due north, appearing to stand on its handle above its brightest star
Polaris. To the east-northeast, the bright star you will notice about 45 degrees
above the horizon is Vega (alpha Lyrae). It lies above the constellation Cygnus,
here with its long axis parallel to the horizon, with the head of the Swan (Albireo)
at the southern end and Deneb (alpha Cygni) toward the north.

Tennant Turned Down by Fielding & Padbury!
The Project Motor Mouth convention this weekend brought David Tennant together on stage with several of his predecessors, notably Paul McGann, Peter Davison and Sylvester McCoy .
Although Colin Baker was unable to make the event at the eleventh hour, the other guests – assembled to raise money for the Project Motor House, with which Janet Fielding is involved.
As reported by DavidTennantOnTwitter.com, various interesting things were revealed by Tennant:
- Both Janet Fielding and Wendy Padbury refused to represent David as a young actor (both former actresses became agents; Fielding was Paul McGann's agent when he was cast as the Doctor).
- Tennant is possibly returning to the RSC in Richard II.
- Filming Hamlet for DVD for easier than expected.
- The Tennant household has an infestation of ladybirds.
- Twiggs' voice will be changing in Tree Fu Tom's second series as David Tennant will not be returning due to a schedule clash.
Obviously there are a few things there to keep an eye on (notably
the ladybirds Richard II) so we'll let you know if there are any developments in that area.
6 Responses to Tennant Turned Down by Fielding & Padbury!
Come on David!
you know Sonic setting 802 gets rid of them!!
Colin must have been able to make the convention at some point as I've just seen a pic via his twitter showing with him, Janet and the other five Doctors which was taken there.
He got there a couple of hours before the end on Saturday to do autographs.
Fantastic event, a real credit to the 10th Planet guys.
Typo? Or bad reporting? That should read, "Project Motor Mouth"–an affection nickname for Janet Fielding, I believe.

CMOS area image sensors are integrated circuits (ICs) that convert light into an electronic signal. They consist of a photodiode array and multiple CMOS transistors per pixel.Toshiba has developed CMOS area image sensors to meet the need for high performance and small form factor. Toshiba's CMOS area image sensors will open up new possibilities with their use of outstanding technologies such as high dynamic range (HDR) that delivers smooth and crisp video, color noise reduction (CNR) and backside illumination (BSI) that offers high sensitivity. Additionally, these image sensors provide high image quality thanks to advanced CMOS sensor technologies such as micro-lens and photodiode optimizations. Toshiba's CMOS area image sensors are available with a wide range of resolution from VGA to over 10 million pixels and with a pixel size from 1.12 µm to 5.6 µm, making them suitable for a wide range of applications such as smartphones, tablet PCs, surveillance cameras and automotive cameras.
Toshiba have announced it will offer the T4K82, a 13-megapixel BSI1 CMOS image sensor that allows smartphones and tablets to record full HD video at 240 equivalent frames per second (fps) - the industry's highest2 frame rate. Sample shipments are scheduled to start in March.
High-speed video recording generally results in underexposed images with short exposure times, making it difficult to increase the frame rate. Toshiba's T4K82 incorporates 'Bright Mode' technology that boosts image brightness by up to four times, realizing full HD video capture at 240 fps equivalent. As a result, the sensor allows smartphones and tablets to record high-quality, high-speed video, and to offer extended imaging functions including smooth slow motion playback and high-speed continuous shooting.
Toshiba have started sample shipments of a dual camera module for use in smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices. TCM9518MD is the industry's first dual camera module to incorporate twin 1/4 inch optical format 5-megapixel CMOS camera modules (5 megapixels x 2 arrays), able to simultaneously output recorded images and depth data.
Click the image hotspots or use the links below:
You can search the entire CMOS Area Image Sensor line up for products that meet your requirements.
A depth map contains the distance data between a camera and objects. The depth map is output in values. Toshiba's dual camera module product combined with a dedicated companion LSI simultaneously delivers deep focus images and depth data. A deep focus image is an image in which foreground and background and all points in between are in focus. Using the depth map output from the companion LSI, applications can get depth data on each object with simplified calculation. The depth map can be used for a wide variety of new applications for devices having camera modules and a companion LSI, including refocus, defocus and extraction of any objects of the images, and gesture operation through video images.
Further information on the principles of depth maps.
High dynamic range (HDR) imaging is a feature for capturing images that have a wide contrast range between the lightest and darkest areas. It helps make such images more natural-looking by stretching the dynamic range. Toshiba has developed HDR function for image sensors that can correct high-contrast scenes to produce natural-looking images for both still and video capture. Toshiba's HDR function delivers a smooth and crisp video by reducing blur and false colors that are inherently produced as a result of HDR composition.
Further information on HDR CMOS Sensors
Colour noise reduction (CNR) is a feature for reducing colour noise that adversely affects the visibility of an image. Toshiba's CNR circuit incorporates a digital filter that compares images between consecutive frames to extract only colour noise artifacts.
It enhances image quality without compromising the sharpness of an image. Toshiba's CMOS image sensors with a CNR circuit offer smaller pixel pitch, higher image resolution and higher image visibility at low illuminance than those without a CNR circuit.
Further information on CMOS image sensors with CNR.
A backside illumination (BSI) sensor is a type of image sensor designed to capture the incoming light with the photodiode layer on the backside of the device.
As smartphones and tablets become thinner, lighter and more sophisticated, semiconductor vendors are required to reduce the size and improve the resolution of CMOS image sensors. However, reducing the pixel pitch of a CMOS image sensor causes a reduction in incident light, which in turn leads to a reduction in sensitivity. BSI, which receives light at the backside, makes it possible to further reduce the pixel size without causing reductions in the amount of light captured and thus light sensitivity.
Further information on BSI CMOS image sensors.

Today the Fourth Court of Appeals declared unconstitutional the Texas Improper Photography Statute. Section 21.15 of the Penal Code, known as the Improper Photography statute, makes it a State Jail Felony to visually record or photograph another person without their consent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of another person.
The defendant in the case, Ronald Thompson, age 50, was arrested in July of 2011, at Sea World of Texas, after concerned parents reported him swimming with and taking pictures of children ages 3 to 11. When approached by park security, Thompson attempted to delete the photographs on his camera before it was seized. Police examination of the camera revealed 73 photographs of children in swimsuits, with most of the photographs targeting the children's breast and buttocks areas. Thompson was indicted by a Grand Jury on 26 felony counts of violating the Improper Photography statute.
The Improper Photography protects individuals from being recorded without their consent for the sexual purposes of others. The law is frequently applied where covert cameras are placed in bedrooms to record or broadcast sexual activity without the knowledge of a participant. It also protects women from offenders who crouch behind them to take "up-skirt" pictures in public places. And, the law protects children from child predators who would use them as the subjects of their sexual fantasies. The act of photographing children in this manner is viewed by some experts as a stepping stone toward more aggressive behavior as these individuals begin to act on their fantasies.
Three other courts of appeals in Texas have held the Improper Photography statute to be constitutional. The Fourth Court of Appeals is the only court to have ever held otherwise. District Attorney Reed intends to appeal the case to the Court of Criminal Appeals, the highest court of criminal review in Texas.
For further information please contact District Attorney Susan Reed at (210) 335-2342.

Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.
A powerful and expressive nose with gorgeous aromas of brioche,
peach blossom, candied orange, lemon oil, and dried apricot.
Multiple layers of vanilla, toasted hazelnut, meringue and subtle
white truffle create an intense bouquet. Texturally, the wine
displays harmony and complexity with a creamy, balanced and
lingering perfumed finish. This vintage of Cuvée Indigène will age
and continue to express its potential for two decades, much like
its Burgundian cousins from Corton-Charlemagne.
"Greenish gold. Pungent aromas of dried pear, lemon pith, saffron and smoky lees, with slow-building minerality and a touch of peat. Densely packed but energetic, offering lively orchard and citrus fruit flavors and an exotic floral quality. The peaty note resonates strongly on the finish, which hangs on with impressive tenacity. For all its power, this chardonnay conveys a sense of weightlessness."

International Wine Cellar
"The 2009 Chardonnay Cuvee Indigene is a totally seamless wine graced with endless layers of apricots, peaches, white flowers and spices, all of which come together beautifully in the glass. The substantial weight of the old Wente clones blast through on the fat, creamy finish."

Facebook helped the FBI throughout its investigation of a $850 million cyber-crime ring. Alphaspirit / Shutterstock.com
Thanks to a little help from its friend, Facebook, the FBI announced 10 arrests in an international cyber-crime ring.
"Facebook's security team provided assistance to law enforcement throughout the investigation by helping to identify the root cause, the perpetrators, and those affected by the malware," according to a statement released Tuesday by the FBI.
The operation identified international cyber-crime rings linked to variations of the so-called "Yahos" malicious software, or malware linked to more than 11 million compromised computer systems and over $850 million in losses via what the bureau called the Butterfly Botnet—short for robot network—which steals computer users' credit card, bank account, and other personal identifiable information, according to the statement.
The FBI recommends that computer users regularly update their applications and operating system and perform scans of their computers to look for viruses in order to minimize the chance of falling victim to similar attacks. The statement also said that if you think you have been a victim of such an attack you should file a complaint with the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov.

I recently discovered that I am a recipient of one of the international Warnie Awards for blogging. Adrian Warnock has assigned a "clutch of awards" to several bloggers and I am more than delighted to be among them.
I had my accceptance speech all ready to go ("I'd like to to thank the Warnie Academy, my parents, all 3800 members of my church, and every person in the world with access to the Internet...), but then I was contacted by the Warnie audit team, who suspected the awards had been influenced by vote buying. To wit, one recent dinner in Gaithersburg. The photographic evidence has now been recovered.
The audit team has ruled that I may keep the award, but I have to stand mutely in the back of the group as we all receive our awards. No speech for me. But that doesn't prevent me from wildly gesturing and pointing out some of my favorite posts on the other Warnie Award winners:
- "When Lancelot Comes Riding, Part 2" on the Rebelution--or how to be gracious when men act like gentlemen.
- "Why Have You Chosen this Lot for Me?" from the Finding God in My Difficult Marriage series on the Married Life Blog.
- "What Do We Wear to Worship God?" from Worship Matters. Though addressed to the musicians and vocalists, this is an insightful post for everyone in church.
- "Retreat Meditation" from the five15 blog, an exceedingly useful outline of how to meditate on Scripture.
- "Modesty on Your Wedding Day" from Josh Harris' blog--I especially appreciated his gracious closing comments about avoiding self-righteousness on this topic.
- "More on the Oppression of Women" from the Jollyblogger, who wisely points to our innate sinfulness, rather than any social structure, as the reason for any real oppression women experience.
Congratulations to all the winners! And thank you, Adrian.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.

"We were very happy with the design and quality of these announcements. It exceeded expectations. Also, it was very easy to personalize and the photos came out perfectly. We changed our names to the gray print option which I think helped to soften the design."
"The wedding announcements I ordered are wonderful. They looked exactly as they did on the website and were shipped and received very quickly. The price was extremely competitive with other wedding announcements."
"I ordered this product from australia and was very impressed with the service. I did pay the extra for quick delivery and I had them within two weeks, Much quicker than ordering a similar product from a card shop here at home. Was maybe slightly smaller than I expected but great quality."
"This site makes doing your invitations super easy and affordable. We were beyond impressed with the quality we received. We will absolutely be using Wedding Paper Divas again!"
"These cards are great, both in design and picture quality. They have a clean, cheerful, modern look. My only gripe was there is only a small place on the return address space so most standard address labels don't fit. I ordered a custom small address stamp instead."

Montana Skyby Nora Roberts
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
When Jack Mercy died, he left behind a ranch worth nearly 20 million dollars. Now his three daughters — each born of a different mother, and each unknown by the others — are gathered to hear the reading of the will. But the women are shocked to learn that before any of them can inherit, they must live together on the ranch for one year.
They are sisters...and strangers. Now they face a challenge: to put their bitterness aside and live like a family. To protect each other from danger — and unite against a brutal enemy who threatens to destroy them all.

If you are looking to deploy to mobile devices, there are two major considerations; technical and design. While some of this discussion will relate indirectly to technological capabilities of devices, I have focused the majority of the blog on design considerations to think about when developing solutions that can be deployed on mobile devices. In a future blog I'll dive more into the technology considerations such as which tools or languages should be used for the development.
If you are developing mobile learning that must be taken prior to actual job performance, then the learning moment is different from the performance moment. Therefore, retention and application should be the goal. For retention, learning designs must provide repetitive practice to mastery to ensure that the facts, processes, and concepts are internalized for later recollection and use. Most learners need to be challenged with interactions to understand and retain knowledge. Providing information only, no matter how elegantly it is presented, will probably not result in long-term performance improvement for most learners. Well designed, engaging, and interactive e-learning designs are still more effective than current m-learning trends of information on demand.
However, if the learning moment can be taken during the performance moment, then the mobile learning should be designed as a performance support tool. This means designing an intuitive and efficient interface with well indexed, searchable content that allows the learner to access snippets of information specifically targeted for unique situations. For example, a medical device sales rep could use a mobile platform to show how a device works within the body or a copier service rep could look up troubleshooting tips based on the scenario at hand. This type of mobile learning can also be designed to take advantage of device features such as the camera, UPC scanners, voice recognition, integration with social networking, GPS, etc.
When possible it can be powerful to design for both. The most effective mobile learning designs take both practice to mastery and performance support into account. An effective learning environment should allow users to complete simulated tasks and provide feedback and coaching when requested or necessitated by incorrect actions. If this enabling information was stored in a way that would also allow for direct access via a performance support search feature, then the same content would be available for both types of mobile learning.
If your learning design is focused on retention and skill application, consider limiting mobile deployment to tablets. Smart phones lack the resolution and screen size for the amount of content and user interface controls needed for many practice to mastery learning solutions. These learning solutions require media and interaction to exist on the screen simultaneously to allow users to engage in "what if" scenarios, make choices, compare/contrast, etc. Examples would include task-based software simulation training, dynamic conversation role-play interactions and free play activities simulating one's job.
When designing for tablets and/or smart phones, the learning environments must be sensitive to the inherent user interface differences of a touch screen device including:

Horn (currently at the Smithsonian Institution), and Fairchild's Dr. Jack B. Fisher (recently retired) represents an important research contribution in structural botany and evolution in this large tropical plant family. The book is the result of a four year project at the Garden funded by the National Science Foundation (project number: 0515683) and provides the most complete account of palm anatomy ever produced. This study also provided an avenue to train one graduate student (Karen Laubengayer, MS) and additional research opportunities to a post-doctoral researcher (Dr. James W. Horn).

I hope Rachael Ray is sitting down when she picks up this issue of The National Enquirer. The tab is claiming (I know, I know ... ) that her husband, John Cusimano, is a frequent visitor to a Manhattan swingers' club. And I don't mean a club where they have swings, if you catch my meaning.
The source claims that Mr. Ray has been in the club at least six times -- each time without his wife -- even after they were married. Ewww.
The club, called Checkmate, is apparently a place for "youngish, attractive, vibrant, hip, fit, and well-dressed" men and women to, um, well, do whatever these types do when they're in a club with beds that can accommodate multiple people. Did I say Ewww already?
The source says that after John was finished "romping" with the lassies, he'd stop by the club's buffet and pick up a few bagels. So maybe he was just hungry?
Rachael's publicist told The Daily Mail that the star doesn't comment on stories from the The National Enquirer. Really? You wouldn't comment on a story like this. Not even to say, "Hells no"?
If this is even remotely true, then I think a lot of people are just going to assume that Rachael must know about her husband's extracurricular activities. Trust me when I say that spouses can lead secret double lives and you can easily be none the wiser. I know this from my own ex, who was secretly gay. And I know this from watching Who the Bleep Did I Marry? Ever seen that show? Shudder.
Look, it's impossible to follow around someone 24/7. Plus, celebrity chef Rachael is a hard-working gal. She's got other stuff to do. We'd all like to think our spouse will give off clear as day "signs" that they're up to no good, but this is just a polite fiction we comfort ourselves with, not wanting to believe it could happen to us.
If any of this is true, and Rachael was clueless, I truly feel for her. She's been married eight years and must have assumed that she knew her husband well.
Have you ever been fooled by a spouse? Do you believe this rumor?

Direct quote from the story you linked:
Now when I see judgmental comments online, or I hear them in real life, I just laugh. You wait, I think. In fact, I think most of the time when women are being judgmental about other women's relationships, they just haven't found out something about their husbands yet. If you haven't, and never do, then you should still be nice to those not as lucky as yourself -- because you didn't necessarilychoose correctly. Luck played a role too.
Someone forgot about past lessons learned! BTW we all know the National Enquirer is the most reputable news source around. Good for RR not to fuel the fires of their "news" with a comment. Shame, shame. And I'm not even a fan of RR.
How disrespectful to call her husband "Mr Ray" as if he has no identiy of his own......
I made the entire back page of National Enquirer when I was 14 years old! (decades ago) They took a local story about a highly motivated teen who developed a successful and unique door-to-door business, and turned it into a 'sex-crazed, horny-teen, selling (implied sex services) door-to-door'.
But ladies, there are at least 3 redeeming values of the NE:
1) Makes great bird cage liner, the size is perfect, where you have to fold news print.
2) When camping, you roll it into loose roll, it does start a camp fire readily.
3) It's great at identifying 'low information voters' and others who believe it has to be true if it's on the Internet.

Federal emergency officials have announced a grant of nearly $2.8 million to help schools devastated by a plant explosion in a Central Texas town.
An April fertilizer plant explosion killed 15 people and wrecked three of the West Independent School District's four schools. The district had sent most of the affected students to nearby Waco for classes.
On Friday, the Federal Emergency Management Agency announced a grant that includes money for temporary classrooms and administrative buildings to replace those destroyed or damaged in the explosion. Under a cost-sharing formula, FEMA reimburses the state for 75 percent of the total costs while the state covers the rest.
Federal officials previously rejected $40 million in disaster aid for the schools. Insurers had offered just $20 million of the district's $59 million policy.

last minute one night getaway
loved this little cabin. cutely decorated. quiet and the sound of the brook is heaven. near the town of Grafton. we were only able to stay the one night as we were traveling thru. loved hiking and swimming at the grafton recreational center. breakfast at country girl in chester. and walking up the old cemetery once we found it. i was concerned with it being so close to the road but proved to be extremely lightly traveled and easy to hear a car to protect my dog. only thing i would change is washer/dryer but understand due to size. perfect quaint get away. katharine was wonderful to work with. would definitely come back again!
Stylish and well equipped house!
Beautifully decorated place in one of the prettiest Vermont villages. We truly enjoyed our stay and we're happy to report that everything worked and was up to standard. The house is well equipped and had plenty of heat and water, despite the cold weather we had. The driveway was plowed and access to house was good. Also, the wifi, tv and music system all worked and the living room fireplace was nice. Didn't try the one in the tv room... All and all a pleasant stay, would do it again!
Days gone by with all the modern touches
We rented the barn studio for a birthday weekend. We have been coming to Grafton for years and always stayed at the Old Tavern, now The Grafton Inn but wanted a different experience. The location is perfect for a quiet weekend. The barn adjoins the main house which is also a rental. For two people wanting a romantic get way, use the barn. It is just out of the center of Grafton, within a short walking distance to everything you need. The road is little traveled, so road noise is not a factor. Renovations of the barn are well done. There appears to be no corner cutting with the redo. You have the feeling you are in a barn but with all the modern amenities. Upon arrival you are supplied with fresh eggs and milk, nice touch. For the evening pick up cheese and wine locally and enjoy the fire. If you wanted to be connected, wi-fi is there, but you can also escape with the surroundings to days gone by. Grafton is a restored town brought back many years ago by the Windham Foundation and private homeowners. It is a a postcard town. The process to rent was simple, security returned in a timely manner.

Can the shortage of doctors be solved using an adaptation of the third law of supply and demand?
The third law of supply and demand states "If demand remains unchanged and supply increases, a surplus occurs, leading to a lower equilibrium price."
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand )
If we increased the rate of new doctors entering medicine (using mechanisms such as but not limited to; subsidizing doctors education, further compartmentalizing aspects of health care etc ) until we reached a surplus state then would waiting times and the cost of healthcare go down accordingly?

Sep 21 2013: Reading the scans and test results is precisely what it can do. The advantages over a human come from the ability to compare them to the whole body of literature, with maximum consistency of judgment. Further, the computer can perform these analyses very quickly.
The specific development in Watson is the program's ability to understand language. The Wikipedia page makes for fascinating reading; it duplicates many of the functions of the human brain with language, and compensates with deep parallel processing, a huge database, and computation.
It also suggests treatments. 90% of nurses with access heed its recommendation. Revolutionary tool.
Edit: Apologies, this was supposed to be in response to your comment, Tom.
Sep 22 2013: Absolutely fascinating stuff. Is there any price tag on this for the general public to obtain? Can you offer a link to it, you mentioned Wikipedia?
The cloud aspects and the common language interface of Watson are particularly interesting. I wonder if it REALLY must be a doctor offering the input.. (impact on waiting rooms if say a nurse practitioner or other could do it) .. or.. as some other participants suggest higher self help in the community to lower wait times.. could Watson be offered to the general public as a cell phone app attached to Watsons cloud brain?
Sep 22 2013: http://www-03.ibm.com/innovation/us/watson/putting_watson_to_work.shtml
The above is a link to IBM's page on Watson's applications. One of three chief areas is healthcare, with associated video (albeit advertising, so criticism must be found elsewhere). The pricing estimate found in a 2010 NYT article found here: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/20/magazine/20Computer-t.html puts it into the millions, as the base cost for the hardware on which the program runs amounts to $1m right out of the gate. Current pricing information is scarce, presumably because it is so variable in terms of newer hardware and the precise nature of services, support, licensing, etc. In either event, the computer would be purchased in the same fashion as any other machine, with appropriate consequences for costs of operation and effectiveness of treatment.
I have a related thought I will address as a separate topic, however.
Here is a graphic that explains throws out some current cancer numbers and the flow and function of Watson in that process:
Sep 23 2013: Ryan, from an individual standpoint the pricing is staggering. However, more than one participant in this conversation suggested broadening education throughout the community etc to decrease reliance on doctors etc for less than demanding purposes.
A government could make a purchase of this size with pocket change. What would happen if say a government like Canada purchased this hardware/software offering it in a cloud atmosphere on a "use at your own risk" basis for any citizen of the country to access via computer or cell phone app?
Would the general accurate access to diagnosis it provide reduce our overall reliance on doctors and medical facilities enough to be worth considering?
Would it result in a higher standard of health for all citizens overall?

If the Hawks could make a holiday wish, what would it be? CineSport's Noah Coslov gets the answer from The AJC's Chris Vivlamore as they discuss the new-look Hawks.
Vivlamore reporting.
PHILADELPHIA — If there is a lesson to be learned from the Hawks' recent games, including the loss to the Thunder Wednesday, it had better sink in fast.
While the big picture shows the Hawks having won 12 of the past 16 games, a closer look shows a different trend. The Hawks have lost two of the past three games. They were handed a 22-point home loss by the Warriors last week. They needed overtime to beat the lowly Wizards Tuesday. They trailed the Thunder by 17 points before a comeback fell short in a 100-92 loss Wednesday.
"Your pride kicks in," Hawks guard Kyle Korver said of the Hawks rally against the Thunder. "There are a lot of competitors in this locker room. I thought our energy level picked up. We are not a team that is going to lie down. But we've had a couple tough

Vivlamore reporting.
Lou Williams expects to hear from Philadelphia fans Friday. The Hawks guard just doesn't know if he will be serenaded with a chorus of boos or "Lous."
Williams played his first seven seasons with the Sixers after being drafted by the organization directly out of South Gwinnett High. He will play in Philadelphia for the first time as a member of the visiting team.
"They have a habit of booing," Williams said. "That is just the makeup of the city. I don't really take that personal. I just know that if you are not in a Sixers jersey, there is not a love for you unless you are (Allen Iverson). They always 'Lou-ed' anyway so I don't know if it will be a boo or a Lou."
Williams, who signed with the Hawks as a free agent this summer, said he is looking forward to returning to the city where he became a professional. The Hawks are off today but Williams said he will probably being thinking about the game on the plane ride.

Kevin Durant would have nothing to do with a Hawks comeback.
The Thunder star scored a game-high 41 points, including 18 in the fourth quarter, as the Hawks failed to overcome a 17-point deficit in a 100-92 loss Wednesday at Philips Arena.
The Hawks nearly erased the big deficit and pulled to within four points, 73-69, early in the fourth quarter. Then Durant went to work. He scored 18 of the Thunders' next 22 points, including a stretch of 13 straight.
The Hawks continued to fight but could never pull closer.
"He's very, very talented," Hawks swingman DeShawn Stevenson said of Durant. "Sometimes you can play good defense but even good defense is not good enough for a guy who is 7-foot tall with a jump shot like that, with a handle. Tonight he had a great night. It was his night."
Russell Westbrook added 27 points for the Thunder (21-4), who improved on their NBA-best record with their 12th straight victory. Westbrook scored 21 first-half

UPDATE: Anthony Morrow was cleared to play and will dress out tonight.
Vivlamore reporting.
Here is your report from the Hawks prior to tonight's game against the Thunder.
* Guard Devin Harris will not play against the Thunder tonight due to the sore left foot he suffered in Tuesday's win against the Wizards. He received treatment on the injury but was ruled out. His status for Friday's game at the 76ers in uncertain.
* Guard Anthony Morrow, who has missed the past two games with back soreness, is a game-time decision. Morrow told me he thought he could play but needed to get his back stretched before a final determination is made.
* DeShawn Stevenson, who coach Larry Drew hoped not to play Monday in the first of the back-to-back games, will play and is in the starting lineup. He will be joined by Jeff Teague, Kyle Korver, Josh Smith and Al Horford. Stevenson played 13 minutes after Harris left injured in the second quarter.
* Drew said he would likely go to his bench more

Vivlamore reporting.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – It wasn't supposed to be this close. But was it ever.
DeShawn Stevenson, who the Hawks hoped not to play, hit a key 3-pointer with 2:07 remaining in overtime to help the Hawks to a 100-95 victory over the lowly Wizards Tuesday night at the Verizon Center.
The Hawks could have sealed the game at the free-throw line in the final two minutes. However, Stevenson and Al Horford each hit only one of two free throws. After a Jordan Crawford basket and a missed Hawks shot, the Wizards trailed 98-95 and had the ball with 24 seconds remaining. The Wizards' Nene missed a shot in the paint and Kyle Korver sank two free throws with 7.7 remaining to clinch the victory.
The Hawks ordinarily don't play the veteran Stevenson in back-to-back games and wanted to save him for Wednesday's game against the Thunder. However, with Anthony Morrow out and Devin Harris injured during the game, coach Larry Drew had no option. When Harris couldn't return

Vivlamore reporting from Washington, D.C.
UPDATE: Anthony Morrow will not play against the Wizards as he continues to experience soreness in his back. "We are going to rest him tonight due to the soreness in his back," coach Larry Drew said. "We'll take the extra precautionary measures."
I asked Drew if the loss of Morrow would tempt him to play DeShawn Stevenson, whom he would like to rest for tomorrow's game against the Thunder. Stevenson will dress. "In terms of the game plan of (Stevenson) playing or not playing, I was hoping (Morrow) would be able to play. So, we'll just see how the game goes."
The Hawks will go with a starting lineup of Jeff Teague, Devin Harris, Kyle Korver, Josh Smith and Al Horford against the Wizards tonight.
There are two reasons for the unit, according to coach Larry Drew.
With a game at home against Oklahoma City tomorrow, Drew may not play DeShawn Stevenson. The veteran swingman and defensive stalwart does not play in back-to-back games and

Here is your report from Monday's practice:
Anthony Morrow, who missed Saturday's game with back soreness, participated in practice on Monday. Morrow said he participated on a limited basis but said there were no issues.
"It's good," Morrow said. "I got in loosened up. I got some work in. I was kind of limited today but I felt great."
Morrow said the issue is related to the stress fracture he suffered during his junior season at Georgia Tech.
"Just a little flare up," Morrow said. "I was going real hard, especially not playing much, and I think I overdid it. I'm always trying to get better so that is on me. I just have to manage it better."
The pain started during last week's game against Memphis, his first start of the season. He was able to play through the pain against Miami and Orlando before needing to rest.
Morrow said he was to get treatment before the team departed for Tuesday's game at Washington. A determination on his

Vivlamore reporting.
The Hawks have turned more than a few heads with their play during the first quarter of the season.
Through 21 games, the Hawks (14-7) are second in the Southeast Division and third in the Eastern Conference. They sit just a game behind the defending NBA champion Heat. Not many expected the Hawks, with a revamped a roster that included the loss of a six-time All-Star, to be such a part of the league conversation.
"Nobody outside-wise gave us an opportunity to be as successful as we are," forward Josh Smith said. "We have been a successful ball club and have played with a lot of confidence."
Here is a look at where the Hawks have been and what lies ahead after reaching the quarter pole of a long basketball season.
Biggest surprise
Almost to a man, coach and players point to the new-look team's ability to come together quickly as the main reason for the early successes. After five consecutive postseason appearances, the Hawks brought in a new

Vivlamore reporting.
The Hawks took a day off Sunday to lick their collective wounds after the worst loss of the season. The Warriors manhandled the Hawks on the way to a 115-93 victory Saturday night at Philips Arena.
"When they punched us in the mouth we did not respond," Hawks coach Larry Drew said. "That was very disappointing. That was very disheartening."
The Hawks (14-7) were all but out of the game by the second quarter. They trailed by as many as 27 points in the third quarter. Josh Smith was held to three points on 1-of-12 shooting. The defeat was far worse than the 13-point loss at the Clippers in the fifth game of the season, the previous highest margin of defeat.
"I told the guys after the game, this is one game," Drew said. "We'll look at it and see what happened. We are not going to let the snowball effect to take place. We are going to move on from this game as fast as we can."
The Hawks struggled in nearly all phases of the game, Drew

Vivlamore reporting.
This time it was the Hawks on the wrong end of a blowout.
And it was an ugly one.
The Warriors dominated the Hawks for the final three quarters of a 115-93 victory Saturday night at Philips Arena. The loss came two days after the Hawks beat up the Bobcats. The Warriors are clearly not the Bobcats.
"When they punched us in the mouth we did not respond," Hawks coach Larry Drew said. "That was very disappointing. That was very disheartening.
"The most important thing with our ball club is we have to bring energy every night. If we don't bring the energy then we are really just a below average team. If we bring the energy than I think we can compete with anybody."
The Hawks (14-7) shot just 36.9 percent from the floor (31-for-84). They trailed by as many as 27 points as the game got out of hand in the third quarter. It was only the third loss in the past 14 games for the Hawks. The Warriors shot 49.5 percent (49-for-99), held the rebounding edge

Thrips Control Helps Root
By Amanda Huber
Reducing thrips injury to the foliar part of the plant is necessary to promote maximum root growth. Overall, researchers say producers should keep in mind that what is happening above ground is happening below ground.
It's All Relative
"We have been exploring the relationship of early season thrips injury on root development for a couple of years now," says Philip Roberts, University of Georgia Extension entomologist for cotton. "There is a strong correlation of above-ground plant growth and root growth.
"When you have excessive thrips injury, and the above-ground plant growth is stunted, the root growth is also reduced."
In Georgia, he says most producers put out a preventative insecticide application at planting.
"But," he says, "we still need to scout those fields for thrips. If we have heavy pressure, we will find damage sufficient that a foliar spray is needed."
Roberts says classic thrips damage is crinkling of leaves and possible stunting of the plants.
"The bottom line is that what you see above the ground, as in plant stunting, you will get that same stunting below ground," he says. "Poor root growth interrupts so many other plant functions, such as the plant's ability to deal with drought stress."
Therefore, rapid, early season root growth depends on good management of thrips early on, and rapid, vigorous root growth also is very important in nematode management.
Vigorous Roots Are Important
Nematode damage is likely to happen, says Bob Kemerait, University of Georgia Extension pathologist.
"The key is to have the roots grown enough to be well established," he says. "The more established the root system is, then, even when damage does occur to them, the roots are more able to tolerate that damage."
The Georgia pathologist says nematodes are stress multipliers.
"They will make any stress worse," Kemerait adds.
A cotton seedling that is working to overcome thrips damage will not have vigorously growing roots. The poorly growing roots will succumb to nematode damage more than vigorously growing roots, and this scenario will reduce the plant's ability to overcome disease pressure.
"A vigorous, rapidly growing plant is going to reach the level of maturity where a fungus has less ability to affect it," Kemerait says. "The more you can do to get rapid emergence, rapid growth, the better the plant is able to outgrow disease."
Vigorous, rapid root growth is the key, and thrips control is important to achieve that growth.
"Thrips are extremely predictable in cotton," Roberts says. "We're not saying that you need to go out and spray for thrips, but you don't want to overlook them either."
Scouting is the main idea, he says.
Contact Amanda Huber at (352) 486-7006 or email@example.com.
Why Is Thrips Control Crucial?
• Thrips attack plant roots.
• Serious effect on plant growth.
• Impact on maturity.
• Susceptibility to disease.
• Affects plant emergence.
