The Ohio Bowling Council Hall of Fame has selected longtime Harrison resident Lee Sabatelli to be inducted in November during its 25th annual banquet at the Embassy Suites in Columbus.
There now are 167 members in the Hall, which began honoring individuals for accomplishments as amateurs, professionals or in the administration of bowling since 1988.
Sabatelli started bowling in certified leagues in 1958. His lifetime composite average for all leagues for all years is an impressive 183 - 96 pins over his age.

Colossal problems - we feel very helpless even when we suffer because of theses problems. However, why is it so hard for a single person to figure out what to do against madness, violations, mindless industries, commonly vicious "healthcare", poor useless education?
Why do we prefer to stay within brainless crowds doing Wrong, rather than do something different, making our human world a little better.
Can you share with your own thoughts?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Apr 17 2014: When we consider the big picture Vera, sometimes it may feel overwhelming, and that may cause a feeling of helplessness in some folks.
My practice, is to focus on one thing at a time, that is doable. I am not going to change the world, and to even contemplate that seems mind boggling. There are, however, things I can help change in my little corner of our world, and that is what I focus on. If everyone takes small steps toward change, we create the ripple effect, and we experience change on a larger scale.
Apr 19 2014: When I was just a little child, lost, helpless, abused and trapped in my pitiful existence, I remembered one day I thought that if I'd entirely disappear the whole mighty world would not be the same, my existence is somehow important - because I'm already here, interacting with everything,,, Since that moment I felt that "I'm the world" even it is reavealed in my tiny presence..
Years later I read the Chinese proverb:
No matter what I do I somehow change everything, for bad or for good - I'm already here.
Apr 19 2014: I wholeheartedly agree Vera....your existence is important because you are HERE.....NOW.
We are the world.....we are the children....let's start giving......
Apr 19 2014: True Vera!
And before we can teach anyone else something, we need to learn it for ourselves.....it starts with us as individuals:>)
If we fall asleep and feel helpless in our self we cannot do anything for anyone else!
Do you notice that there is no reply option in your comment just above? I scrolled up to one of your other comments so I could put my reply here...in line with your comment I am responding to:>)
Apr 19 2014: "And before we can teach anyone else something, we need to learn it for ourselves.....it starts with us as individuals:>)" I'm learning still... do not dare to teach yet, but love to share with what I know and make on my own..
Yes, I see that "reply" link is missing again. Ted has been asking mebmers some questions recently, about what Ted shall improve - maybe this problem can be fixed? Working on a couple of complicated sites I know some technical obstacles can be persistent.
btw. Right now I'm making a traditional Italian Easter cake, its my happy time - wished I could send you a huge piece.
Apr 19 2014: In my perception Vera, we are both student and teacher....always.....all ways:>)
The reply option is not available in 3rd level replies. See the little arrows right next to our photo? This comment is a 2nd level (two little arrows), so it will have a reply option. Your previous comment is a 3rd level (3 little arrows).....no reply option. It is just the way the TED system is set up....nothing is "missing".
I would LOVE to try your Italian Easter cake:>)
Apr 19 2014: Stay well and happy, Coleen. Thanks for sharing with your naturaly inborn kindness - it shows in all your posts no matter what you say.
P.S. Thank you for taking the time to figure out why a long thread of comments is losing that "reply" links - I was only guessing in the same direction.
Apr 20 2014: 1. I was lacky to be born a happy dreamer, Colleen - always believing that goodness and kindness are invicinble.. but hostility, malice and other ugly "powers" are self- destructive.
2. You see - our language has another flaw - the WORDS "Easter cake" that I send you and you read them, are not eatable. But the words, even when they express an honest Wish may bring to us some little happiness. Are these postcards with kind words are useful?
The conclusion of the Easter cake: that fantastic sweet dom, full of nuts, dry peaches, raisins with Vanilla mascarpone and ricotta frosting & fresh Raspberries and blueberries in a side has been eaten to the last crumb. I never was able to bake such a delicious easter cake, missed your presence! but your smile was very helpful
P.S. You might be somewhat amused to know who my guests were, those who eat this old traditional easter treat. Only three were born to Christian families, two to Islamic, one to Sikh, one to Coptic Christian, one to Jewish, and this couple simply did not remember their family history. Young and old, we enjoyed sharing stories about history of religion, and something we experienced first hand . It's important to know how very similar old teachings, traditions and stories may be but interpreted and practiced in different Languages effect different cultures, ethics and mentality..
This very young Sikh I trust impressed everyone with his own family life-story deeping over 3 millennia back in time, and
some of his relatives still live in the same place!!
Though he is very young but is saying that most of his true history knowledge is not possible to get from his college only from millennia old writing. I think in this unusual gathering one may see the future, peaceful and meaningful, and believe it or not - with the use of English language as our helpful medium.
Apr 23 2014: Yes Vera, I think/feel that messages with kind words are very useful:>)
Your Easter gathering sounds wonderful, and it reminds me of gatherings with friends of different cultures, religious traditions, and philosophical beliefs, when we shared thoughts, feelings and ideas with pleasure, while learning more about ourselves and each other:>)
Since I have had many conversations about different religious and philosophical beliefs, I was surprised when I first came on TED, to observe the anger expressed because of different religious/philosophical beliefs. I believe this to be a BIG MAN-MADE challenge in our world!
There is no reason we cannot sit down and discuss our personal beliefs with respect and pleasure.
The challenge arises when someone wants to IMPOSE their own personal beliefs on others inaccurately thinking that THEIR belief is the one and only belief. It feels especially contradictory and hypocritical to me when they say their "unconditionally loving god" is going to send all those who do not accept their religion to hell!!!
I was born into a catholic family, attended catholic school for 12 years, etc., and I started questioning the teachings as a wee little child....love thy neighbor only if s/he is catholic? Everybody else is going too hell? What happened to the so called unconditionally loving god??? Maybe "he" was asleep!
I believe we CAN accept each other and our religious/philosophical beliefs as long as those beliefs and practices do not adversely impact other people. I believe we create a man-made/human-made challenge when one thinks that his/her personal beliefs are the one and only and EVERYONE must follow those beliefs....or else!
I LOVE the learning experienced from the study and research of various beliefs, as well as the wonderful conversations I have had with friends and relatives who embrace different religious/philosophical beliefs:>)
I am enjoying the "idea" of your Italian Easter Cake my friend....thanks:>)
Apr 23 2014: Here is your quote, Colleen: " ....the anger expressed because of different religious/philosophical beliefs. I believe this to be a BIG MAN-MADE challenge in our world!
There is no reason we cannot sit down and discuss our personal beliefs with respect and pleasure. "
This is the most outrageos "feature" of our human character - the most brainless "reason" for fights and endless war. It is happening when a person demands everyone to see the world exactly as he/she does.. However, it is against the law of mighty nature that creates every single creature as a unique being.
Some years ago I've published my first book, my amusing utopia of a very-far-away future, where everyone is recognized as a unique self-creating individual. Their Futuristic Golden Rule is
"NEVER treat others as you would like to be treated yourself -- unless they agree to it first --because what is good for you may be damaging for others."
As we grow up I think we all shall be aware of this truth:
"Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world."
Arthur Schopenhauer
Apr 23 2014: Colleen, I had a few friends who were badly suffering in Catholic school - some of them very damaged psychologically, they still cannot manage..
My beloved book "Erasmus of Rotterdam" by Stefan Zweig - I think it is the best living portrait of a remarkable classical scholar. Amongst humanists, "Prince of the Humanists", Erasmus lived through all the horrors of inquisition, but always as himself. He was physically so fragile and vulnerable, but was empowered within his extraordinary, invincible inborn kindness and compassion.
Apr 27 2014: I agree Vera, that sometimes, an inability to discuss something with respect, is one of the reasons for fights and wars. I do not agree that it is a "feature" of our human character. It certainly CAN be a "feature" for some people, and I believe it is a learned behavior.
"Fighting", to protect our self in some way may be a human characteristic, so perhaps when people fight and engage in war, they perceive they are protecting something. I agree with you that it often happens when a person demands that everyone see the world exactly as he/she does. So, what do you perceive they might be protecting in this scenario? What is to be lost if everyone does not have the same world view?
Personally, I appreciate the differences, as long as the beliefs and practices do not adversely impact other people. However, when some folks try to push their personal beliefs onto others, it DOES adversely impact other people.
Regarding "suffering in catholic school"....
I have heard the phrase lately...."recovering catholic".....!
Since I was a child, I perceived the life experience as a adventurous exploration, so I cannot say that catholic teachings damaged me in any way. It certainly gave me cause to ponder my worldview....even as a wee little lass. While being brought up in a catholic environment, I learned a lot about what I DO NOT want to be in this life experience. I do not appreciate control, domination with fear, or contradictory hypocrisy, and I felt sure of that even as a child.

Louisville, KY - Louisville Metro Councilman Ken Fleming has secured a SMART (Speed Monitoring Awareness Radar Trailer) Traffic Control device for use exclusively in District Seven. The SMART Machine monitors a vehicle's speed and flashes it to a driver, reminding them to slow down if they are exceeding the posted speed limit. "Speeding poses a significant problem in the Seventh District," said Fleming. "Although it is difficult to completely eliminate speeding, the SMART Machine is a valuable tool in deterring speeding. The SMART Machine will also provide traffic speed statistics to the police department, allowing officers to better monitor traffic in the future." Fleming introduced an ordinance appropriating funding for the SMART Machine. The Metro Council approved the ordinance on February 24, and the Machine was delivered to District Seven in late March. The Machine is currently located on Ambridge Circle in Windy Hills, and will be periodically moved to different locations in District Seven.

Sometimes you have to take a chance – and sometimes the chance pays off. Such was the case for the East Union freshman football team on Thursday.
Three Manteca-Ripon area teams are hosting first-round playoff football games next Friday, and another is heading to Placer County.
Ripon Christian kept the Le Grand sophomores off the score board for the final three quarters Friday night and rolled to a second-place finish in the Southern League on Friday with a 36-6 win at Stouffer Field.
RIPON – Two running backs chasing each other in the stat book found themselves on opposite ends of the emotional spectrum Friday evening.
It was a mismatch from the start.
Use any of the clichés you want to describe the situation that Sierra High found itself in going into Friday's regular season finale at Daniel Teicheira Memorial Stadium, but its back was against the wall.
For the better part of the first two quarters, the Lathrop High Spartans stood toe to toe with Kimball.
Andrew Brown this. Andrew Brown that.
Christian Williams might be the most dynamic return man in the nation. On one leg even.
Lathrop, East Union and Weston Ranch didn't produce the results they hoped for prior to the start of the season.
Manteca is in at Division III.
Make it seven straight shutouts for the Ripon Chiefs junior varsity.
The lights to Daniel Teicheira Memorial Stadium remained lit hours after a rivalry was put to rest early Saturday morning.
Down but not out.
SANTA CLARA - Maybe it was a good thing that Friday's Manteca-Wilcox football game did not take place at Levi's Stadium as originally planned.
MODESTO – They did what they were supposed to do.
Victor Polanco stood on the sidelines, a sun hat pulled low on his brow.
The last day to purchase tickets for the Manteca High football team's rooters' buses is Wednesday, Aug. 20.
Lathrop Jr. Spartans president Jaime Hernandez has a vision.
LATHROP - To borrow a phrase from John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High," the Lathrop Lions are coming home to a place they have never been before.
So, how does Sierra replace one of the Sac-Joaquin Section's most prolific passers of 2013?
Keith Jackson is picking up where he left off last fall, when he rallied generations of Manteca High alumni to cheer the Buffaloes' historic postseason run.
Second-year Lathrop coach Steven Wichman has a better idea of what his team can do with pads on this time around.

Hairy cunts turn me on, sure wish we could have seen how that hairy pussy looked in her mouth.. Mmmm love when the hair is all wet and clumped together from being so wet!
I think this is wonderful! It just goes to show that, straight or lesbian couple, the act of procreation is such a deeply profound thing that it should always be done with love, affection and intimacy. As a father of 3 I can say that the act of lovemaking is made even more pleasurable knowing that you're also creating life.
dawmmm that bitch got bush
oh god this is so sexy, i miss my girlfriend

Good lord! I'm surprised the brunette's tongue didn't get lost in that forest, never to be seen again .

Metro, the provider of more than 17 million bus rides annually, last updated its regional transit plan in 2008. The addition of new technologies, ever-shifting demographics and the development of new destinations and employment centers has led the agency to revisit how it can best serve the community's transportation needs.
The result is Way to Go, a series of short-term solutions and long-term recommendations developed through market research, surveys, and extensive public feedback performed by Metro since March.
Short-term solutions identified in the draft plan, which can be implemented using existing funding, include changes to 17 existing bus routes and the addition of a Metro*Plus bus rapid transit (BRT) demonstration project that would connect Downtown and Kenwood via Montgomery Road, announced late last month.
Long-term recommendations include full BRT service, additional crosstown routes, neighborhood circulators, more express buses and park-and-ride locations, call-and-ride zones, transit centers and upgraded stops, and additional shelters. Changes also would be made to eight high-ridership routes, improving bus frequency and capacity.
The public open houses will be held:
- Today from 10 A.M.-11 A.M. at Clovernook Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired, 7000 Hamilton Avenue;
- Today from 2 P.M.-3 P.M. at the Cincinnati-Hamilton County Community Action Agency, Room 210, 1740 Langdon Farm Road;
- Tomorrow from 10 A.M.-11 A.M. at the University of Cincinnati Blue Ash Science and Allied Health Building, 9555 Plainfield Road;
- Tomorrow from 7 P.M.-8 P.M. at Westwood Town Hall, 3017 Harrison Avenue;
- November 15 from 10 A.M.-11 A.M. at Metro's offices, 602 Main Street, 12th floor;
- November 15 from 2 P.M.-3 P.M. at Cincinnati State Technical and Community College, The Point Room, 3520 Central Parkway; and
- November 16 from 10 A.M.-11 A.M. at Madisonville Recreation Center, 5320 Stewart Road.
Metro anticipates presenting the completed plan to the community next spring.

TEAMS: Los Angeles Dodgers, Boston Red Sox, Los Angeles Angels, Chicago White Sox, Texas Rangers, Detroit Tigers
As Chad Moriyama noted a while back, it's not just the oddity of the collection of moves that could lead one to believe the new ownership group is looking at things more so from a PR perspective than from an on-the-field, performance-based one.The humongous trade with the Red Sox is a prime example. The Dodgers took on a quarter of a billion dollars in contracts – let that sink in for a moment – while also giving up a prime prospect (De La Rosa), a pretty good one (Webster), and another solid one (Sands). Even for a team flush with cash after a long period of operating under a broke and crooked owner, the combination of giving up prospects and taking on so much money is absurd and not smart business in the least.Where it becomes a PR move, in appearance, is two-fold. First, Dodgers' owner Peter Guber said as much in early September:"You can't tell nine days later. Look at it for a season. Not over three weeks. We did it to send signals, to the fans, to the media.

Have you ever caught yourself saying something like, "I just don't understand how a PhD physicist can believe in astrology?" Well, if you literally don't understand, this indicates a problem with your model of human psychology. Perhaps you are indignant - you wish to express strong moral disapproval. But if you literally don't understand, then your indignation is stopping you from coming to terms with reality. It shouldn't be hard to imagine how a PhD physicist ends up believing in astrology. People compartmentalize, enough said.

Despite struggles, four determined runners are eager to get to the starting line of Sunday's Manitoba Marathon
One has endured a painful groin injury. Another, an agonizing knee injury. One has spent more time at work than on the pavement while another is still grieving the death of a family member.
It's been a wild ride of highs and lows for the four Manitoba marathoners we've followed since February.
With only six days left until race day on Sunday, our marathoners are tapering their training regimens and psyching themselves up to cross the finish line.
Here's an update:
Mike Booth
He's won the Manitoba Marathon four times, but elite runner Mike Booth admits he was a bundle of nerves up until a few weeks ago.
"I think I was freaking out a little bit with all the pressure I'd been putting on myself," says the massage therapist and owner of Massage Athletica, whose 12-hour days working at his fledgling business have trumped marathon training.
Today, Booth, 31, says he's more confident and at peace about the upcoming marathon instead of fixating on what others think about his race performance.
"If you run it, you do it for yourself. If you don't run it, you do it for yourself."
Booth, who came in fourth overall in last year's marathon, makes it clear he would like to win it this year.
He thinks he can do it.
His time constraints have forced him to take a more unconventional approach to training in the last weeks before race day. Whereas most runners training for a marathon complete several long runs, Booth has, instead, focused on high-intensity interval runs -- most of them completed on the treadmill, rather than pavement.
His intervals consist of high-intensity 60-second to five-minute treadmill runs completed on an incline.
For the last few weeks, he's been doing double workouts, one in the morning and one in the evening.
Such training, he believes, has been easier on his legs and prevented him from any injury this training season. But there are trade-offs -- the possibility that his "legs might not hold up" because of a lack of pounding the pavement.
Right now, Booth says race-day strategy is weighing on his mind.
He knows he'll start race day at 2 a.m. with a 3,000-calorie breakfast: A one-litre smoothie and a bagel. He'll take a quick nap and be ready to race at 7 a.m.
He'll start the race slow.
"I'm probably going to go out a bit more conservative and just worry about myself," says Booth. "If I start picking people off, than good for me. If I don't, (at least) I'm going to be able to make it to the finish line in one piece."
Corey Gallagher
After placing second in last year's half-marathon, Corey Gallagher is focused on working through the agony of his recent injuries and winning this year's race.
"There is still some pain there," says the stoic 24-year-old Canada Post letter carrier whose hip and groin injury several weeks ago has led to lower-back discomfort. "Just working through it. It's not really too much of an inconvenience."
Gallagher admits he had overworked himself -- walking up to 16 kilometres a day delivering mail, working a second job at running store Stride Ahead and training daily. A few weeks ago, those injuries became so debilitating that he had to take time off from running.
Now he's back.
With less than a week to his half-marathon, he has decided to "rest everything."
For Gallagher, that means reducing his workouts by 75 per cent. Where he used to do 10-kilometre track workouts and 21-kilometre distance runs, the St. Vital resident is now completing 6.5- and 16-kilometre runs -- mostly in the streets.
Gallagher knows the half-marathon course well. He's run all but one half Manitoba Marathon since age 12.
He wants to make sure he doesn't repeat last year's performance, when he struggled across the finish line after hitting the infamous "wall" halfway through the race.
"I was a little disappointed that I blew up and it hurt so much. But I was happy with the end result," says Gallagher. "This year I'm looking for a little more."
In an unusual move -- one that many experts would criticize -- Gallagher plans not to use glucose gels or water during the race for fear it will weigh him down and cause cramping.
"I've learned from my mistakes. I don't train with water so I shouldn't need it during my race."
His main focus during the run will be avoiding the so-called wall -- the part of the race where a runner is so fatigued "you're almost going backwards." (For Gallagher, that's around the 10K mark, near the Bridge Drive-In on Jubilee Avenue.
"The adrenalin and the hype and all the people around really get you going. This year I'm going to take it out nice, easy, relaxed," says Gallagher. "Even if I do hit the wall I'll be able to maintain and push through it."
Ramona Turner
Headingley hobby runner Ramona Turner is constantly replaying in her mind how she'll control her pace during her first full Manitoba Marathon.
"I think a lot of about what pace I'm going to do. I've become a little addicted to my Garmin watch. I like challenging myself to stay within a certain pace," says Turner, an administrative assistant who has been training three nights a week with a clinic hosted by City Park Runners, a Portage Avenue specialty running store.
There she has steadily progressed to 37K runs -- sessions she says give her the much talked about "runners' high." A recent damper: An old ankle injury that has forced her to wear a stability boot that she will use for the marathon.
"You step on a curb wrong, you step on a rock... you could very quickly, when something is injured, reinjure it," says Turner, 44, who has been training over the past few weeks with the boot.
Turner, 44, first hit the pavement in 1997 and hasn't looked back. She has run three half-marathons so far.
After completing her last long run, now she's taking it easy before race day and will compete short jaunts
Her biggest race-day worry? She hopes the weather won't be too hot and humid. "I'm nervous about being nervous," says Turner who, at the same time, is proud of her running accomplishments.
But she can hardly wait to hear the national anthem and theme from the 1980s running flick Chariots of Fire -- music played at the beginning of every Manitoba Marathon.
"It's just such a huge emotional experience with all the people all there for the same reason-- wanting to do their best," says Turner. "I can hardly wait to see my kids and my husband in the stands and cross that finish line."
Kris Wood
Kris Wood can't get race day out of her head even when she should be sleeping.
"Last night I was up at four in the morning," says the Charleswood resident, jokingly asking how elite runner Mike Booth deals with his pre-marathon nerves.
"That guy, he wants to win. I just want to run."
Wood, 38, who is battling a old leg injury, says she's only doing "easy miles" now that race day is so close.
Wood initially intended to take a Running Room training clinic. She's attended only a couple of sessions and instead runs on her own or with friends. She also swims and bikes. Visiting her ill stepfather in an out-of-town hospital didn't leave Wood much time to train. He has since died. In the midst of her family crisis, she lost her job.
For Wood, running is deeply tied to family.
Three years ago, Wood's 55-year-old mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. The thought of losing her sent Wood into a tailspin. "I was sort of on the edge of a nervous breakdown. I was overweight because I quit smoking a few years before and was sort of drowning my sorrows in the drink," says Wood, who worried about her own predisposition to Alzheimer's. Her doctor offered her a way to cope and to help protect her brain from the disease: Exercise. "So I quit my job and I started running down a gravel road."
She has since lost more than 30 pounds and is fitter than she's ever been.
She says she's running her first full marathon for her mother and stepfather. But she will try not to let thoughts of them overwhelm her during the race.
As for her training, she had a "fantastic" 24K weekend run in the heat to prepare her for race day. That was followed by "the worst run of her life" a few days later.
Wood's athletic therapist has given her hip-strengthening exercises to do three times daily designed to help keep her in the race.
"It's hard to remember to do them," says Wood. "I'm exhausted. Physically, emotionally exhausted.
Yet, she looks forward to race day -- especially knowing her daughter and husband will be there to cheer her on.
"I just want it to be here already so I can get over it and move on. I'm just trying to get my head in the zone."

duration of exposure to infective mosquitoes may also influence the severity of the disease.
The clinical manifestations of malaria are varied. The classic description of an individual progressing episodically from shaking chills through intense fevers to drenching sweats is characteristic but not universal. In areas where malaria is common, infected individuals may have symptoms that mimic other diseases, making a correct diagnosis difficult. The problem of diagnosis is especially difficult in children, who may have high blood levels of parasites but relatively mild symptoms. In areas where health workers are unfamiliar with malaria, or with patients in whom the range of symptoms may not point clearly to malaria, misdiagnosis is a serious problem.
Severe and complicated malaria, generally due to infection with P. falciparum, is a medical emergency. In the absence of prompt intervention, the patient's condition can deteriorate rapidly, often ending in death (Figure 2-1). About 80 percent of deaths from the disease result from cerebral malaria, a state of altered consciousness, sometimes including coma, in patients infected with P. falciparum. Renal failure, hypoglycemia, severe anemia, pulmonary edema, and shock may also play a role in fatal malaria.

How to attend a conference?
I was recently in [[Google>Brighton]] for [[Google>SOSP]]. For those of you who don't know about SOSP, its the premiere conference in systems and networking (more systems, less networking). Its very competitive (20 papers selected out of 150 odd submission or so) and the who-s-who of the community are there to attend. Naturally its a great opportunity to be there and see all these people in action.
This was my first SOSP and I think the biggest lesson I took away from this conference was that you should never attend a good conference unprepared. Some things to keep in mind:
* true, you might be on a paid vacation, but you can always go back to Hawaii or Cancun or whatever. But good conferences (SOSP happens every 2 years) are hard to come by, and you'll attend only so many of those before its time for you to market yourself for a job when you're about to graduate. So you do want to make the best of it.
* Never, //ever// sleep in a talk. You might be jetlagged, tired, hung over from last night's booze — whatever the cause, don't sleep there in front of everyone. If you are sleepy, go to your room and sleep there.
* Try to attend all talks. Its hard, but not impossible. While you're at it, try to //listen// in all talks. SOSP turned off wireless during the sessions, and I think it worked out pretty well. When you don't have a laptop in front of you, there's not much choice but to listen.
* Prepare, prepare, prepare: I can't emphasize this more. Its critical to be prepared. You don't want to sound like jack-ass in front of all the big shots there, do you? Try to read the papers. Or the abstracts at least. Definitely read the papers that are relevant to your research. Do some background work on the authors — what have they worked on before, what are they working on now, who are they working with, where are they from etc. Knowing a little bit about the people you might/want to meet will definitely pay off.
* //Do not// go and blabber garbage with someone famous, just to get them to talk to you. As Stefan says, its not important how many people you know. Its important how many people know //you//. While some may disagree with this, but personally I don't like going up and talking to someone unless I really have something meaningful to say. Maybe about their talk. Or about their paper. Or about their student. Or about their birthplace. //Something//.
* Network, network, network: This is easier than it sounds. Some people are born naturals. Others have to work at it (I'm latter). But hopefully you won't have to do too much. Two rules of thumb help: avoid sticking together with your own flock; and when in company of strangers, at least introduce yourself and try to get to know them. Hopefully over a few dinners and social events, you would have built enough critical mass so that conversations will flow naturally.
Just some things I realized I should keep in mind for my next conference, and approach it in a more systematic way than I did this time. The 3 days at SOSP were quite useful — I met a lot of people, I got to talk about my work a little, and I got the first "taste" of the systems community. I came back from SOSP a little more inspired and a little more motivated :-)

on the origins of "let them eat cake"
I received a question a few days ago wondering about the origins of Let them eat cake--or more specifically, asking if Marie Antoinette had ever been accused of saying the phrase while she was alive. I did more research and… got a little bit carried away.
But, here it is: My somewhat organized thoughts on the origins of "Let them eat cake" and why it is now associated with Marie Antoinette
Marie Antoinette did not say "Let them eat cake." But the question remains: was this phrase, which is today so widely associated with the ill-fated queen, actually attributed to Marie Antoinette during her lifetime? Marie Antoinette was accused of hundreds of crimes and illicit deeds by her contemporaries—including affairs, wild orgies, and plots to massacre women and children. Her gender, Austrian heritage and status as a symbol of the ancien regime made her a prime target for an assortment of calumnies at the hands of anyone who believed her an enemy. These accusations are fairly well documented in contemporary libelles, revolutionary journals and pamphlets, as well as the written records of her trial in 1793. Véronique Campion-Vincent, co-author of a study on the origins of "Let them eat cake!" was faced with the same question: Was Marie Antoinette accused of remarking, callousness or otherwise, "Let them eat cake!" when she was told that the peasants had no bread? According to the research of Campion-Vincent, who delved into hundreds of contemporary pamphlets and newspapers and caricatures and other propaganda: no. Nowhere among printed extant revolutionary or propagandist was material the name of Marie Antoinette found attached or attributed to the now-infamous saying.
But why, then, has she become associated with the phrase? First, let's look at the most famous source of this phrase: Jean Jacques Rousseau. In 1782, Rousseau published Confessions, a book which was partially written in 1766 and which contains the anecdote that many people interested in Marie Antoinette are certainly familiar with—that of the "great princess" who, when told that the peasants had no bread, replied "Let them eat brioche!" Although it is likely that Rousseau published the written French variant of "Let them eat cake!" or a similar phrase, it is not likely he invented this phrase from thin air. The phrase "Let them eat cake" likely has its origins in a type of urban folklore myth, which has been given its own Tale-Type—aptly named Let Them Eat Cake. This Tale-Type is associated with characteristics such as "King ignorant of condition of subjects; lifestyle of the poor and that of the rich contrasted; and apathy or indifference to the plight of others." Stories which appear again and again throughout history share the same motif as the anecdote about Marie Antoinette. A king or princess or someone else in position of wealth and power is confronted with the reality of the poor, who are starving or in need of a certain type of food—usually the staple food that makes up most of their diets, such as rice or wheat or bread. In response, they—out of ignorance or genuine apathy to their plight—respond by suggesting that the poor eating something that only the rich could afford. One such tale was printed in 1596 and included in a Lutheran collection of tales. A noble woman asked "Why do the people complain and suffer hunger? There are rolls, bread, butter and Krosem (a type of sweet bread) for sale in the market; with that they could repress and quiet their hungers." Tales of this type can be found almost all over the world and are not unique to French history. "Marie Antoinette said 'Let them eat cake'" then, can be approached not as a linear line—"Rousseau to readers to Marie Antoinette"—but as a common Tale-Type which, along the way, finally persisted on sticking to Marie Antoinette.
In 1824, the memoirs of Louis XVIII, formerly known as the comte de Provence, were published posthumously. These memoirs contained the first known written record of a phrase similar to "Let them eat cake!" being attached to a member of the French royal family. Part of these memoirs recounted the flight of the comte de Provence from France, in 1791, which were written shortly after the event but corrected in the 1820s by the now-king Louis XVIII before his death. In one chapter, Louis XVIII recounted a time when the fleeing party, having eaten pie for breakfast, recalled "Queen Maria Theresa, who hearing one day the poor people pitied for being in want of bread, replied 'But, dear me, why do they not eat pie-crust?'" Nowhere in his memoirs does he mention this quote, or the similar "Let them eat cake!" being attributed or even somewhat associated with Marie Antoinette. I think it is safe to conclude that the phrase had likely not been firmly attached to Marie Antoinette before 1791 nor had it been cemented in the popular mythology of the queen during the early 19th century. If it had, Louis XVIII would surely have written something about the quote being unfairly attributed to his sister-in-law—whether it had been attributed to her when the memoir was first written or when it was being edited in the 1820s. Antonia Fraser, who mentions Louis XVIII's attribution to Maria Theresa in Marie Antoinette: The Journey, characterized the story as something of a "royal chestnut," meaning a story which was probably passed around within the family but likely has no factual basis.
The same phrase pops up again in the 19th century, this time found in the memoirs of a French comtesse and associated with a different member of the French royal family. The comtesse de Boigne was the daughter of a lady to Madame Adelaide, daughter of Louis XV, who had her memoirs recounting life in France throughout various regimes published after her death in 1866. While describing the daughters of Louis XV, the comtesse recalled a story about Madame Victoire: "Madame Victoire was by no means clever, though extremely kind. It is said of her that during a famine, when the conversation turned upon the sufferings of the poor for want of bread, she said with tears in her eyes, "But why cannot they put up with pie crust?" (To explain this anecdote, the comtesse remarked that Madame Victoire was known to have an intense dislike of pie crust.)
Both these anecdotes give credence to the idea that "Let them eat cake" should be understood as an urban myth—or urban legend, if you like—rather than a specific quote from a specific source. It has had many variants (I highly recommend the additional reading on the subject that I'll list below, for more information on the variants of "Let them eat cake" throughout history and various cultures!) and, in this case, has been passed around from French royal to French royal at least through the Bourbon family.
The first existing written record that actually connects Marie Antoinette and "Let them eat cake" is found in Alphonse Karr's "Les Guepes," which was published in 1843. Karr attributes the phrase "Oh well! Let them eat cake!" to a duchess from Tuscany in 1760, or possibly earlier, who was told that the peasants in her area were in need of bread. Karr goes on to say that "radical agitators" during the revolution attributed the remark to Marie Antoinette in an attempt to discredit her in the eyes of the French. Although Karr's assertion that the phrase was used to slander Marie Antoinette during her lifetime is not backed up by contemporary evidence, it does give us an indication that the phrase was connected to Marie Antoinette by the mid-19th century, at least—if not abundantly so in print, at least through word of mouth.
But even Karr's assertion does not explain why the phrase has become stuck on Marie Antoinette rather than on, say, Maria Theresa or Madame Victoire. After all, the comtesse de Boigne's memoirs were published well after Karr's work and the phrase is not found in any of the "big" Marie Antoinette biographies of the 19th century. The earliest mention I found of the phrase in an English biography was found in a book by Lady Younghusband, published in 1907, who believed that the anecdote given by de Boigne (although Younghusband attributes the phrase to Madame Sophie, not Madame Victoire) had been distorted over the years into a story about Marie Antoinette saying "Let them eat cake," rather than connecting Marie Antoinette to "Let them eat cake" through Rousseau.
I was unable to find any existing records connecting Marie Antoinette to "Let them eat cake" in between 1907 and the date of the next known publication to connect the two, a German children's history novel called Pünktchen und Anton, published by Erich Kaestner in 1931. This book included the story thus:
"… Poor people lined up in front of the chateau and shouted: "We have no bread! We have no bread!" They were so poor. Queen Marie Antoinette looked out the window and asked an officer: "What do these people want?" "Majesty," replied the officer, "They want bread, they do not have enough bread, they are very hungry." The Queen shook her head in amazement. "They do not have enough bread?" she asked. "But then, let them eat cake!" You may think she said it to mock the poor. No, she did not know what poverty was!"
Erich Kaestner's books were translated into numerous languages, although I was unable to find out of this particular book was translated into English, and it is possible that by including the story in his book, Kaestner helped to cement the connection between Marie Antoinette and "Let them eat cake!" in the eyes of readers and eventually, in popular culture. I hesitate to say that Kaestner was the catalyst of the cemented connection between Marie Antoinette and "Let them eat cake," … however, most of the early newspaper records which connect Marie Antoinette to the phrase began in the 1930s. It is possible that by including the story in his popular book, it was spread to more children's books and from there into the minds of parent—teachers, editors and journalists, and from there into newspaper articles to newspaper reader, etc etc, until it became a larger part of popular culture as a whole. What was once an anecdote sometimes associated with Madame Victoire, sometimes Maria Theresa, sometimes Marie Antoinette became associated with just Marie Antoinette. Countless newspaper articles, ad campaigns and other popular culture pieces from the mid-1930s until modern day include the phrase "Let them eat cake" being attributed or associated with Marie Antoinette, although once in a while they do add the caveat "She may have never said it, but…"
But why Marie Antoinette? Why don't we, for example, read "Is This Female Politician the New Madame Victoire?" in our headlines? Interestingly enough, the reasons for the insistence of "Let them eat cake!" sticking to Marie Antoinette may be those same reasons that calumnies against Marie Antoinette made during the revolution stuck to her so hard that they were considered evidence at her trial. In the 20th century—and in particular, in the 1930s—Marie Antoinette was once again being transformed in the eyes of the public. But instead of a transformation into a harpy-like she-beast or a hated bloodthirsty Austrian by caricatures and satirical pamphlets, Marie Antoinette was transformed into a glittering, dazzling queen who was capable of capturing public attention in a big, big way. She was not just a queen who was executed during the French Revolution, the constant subject of romantic 19th century biographies. She became the tragic but oh-so-frivolous queen who wore gauzy ball gowns on book covers, whose memory sold replica earrings to housewives and who engaged in a dramatic, love-torn affair with a dashing count in a major MGM motion picture. She became the French queen, the queen associated with French history, with the downfall of the monarchy. How could Madame Victoire, Maria Theresa, Madame Sophie or any other royalty to whom the phrase has been latched compare? Marie Antoinette was, in some ways, thrust back into the limelight through the slew of biographies and films and novels that came or were inspired by the 'rush' of Marie Antoinette that occurred in the 1930s. But the limelight does not come without its downsides: the phrase, perhaps innocently included in children's novel due to its presence as a verbal urban myth and spread from there, now came to rest with the most famous person that it had ever, thus far, been associated with—Marie Antoinette.

Business Ideas in the News / July 22, 2011
If you're a beer enthusiast with an iPhone, Opena has created a unique phone case you will love. All you need to do is slide out the bottle cap opener and — pop — your beer is ready to drink, reports Inventor Spot.
Now, thanks to some enterprising young beer-swillers from Down Under, you can open your bottled beer with the same iPhone that you used to get to your destination station. The Opena iPhone case makes it easy to remove bottle caps from bottles, beer bottles specifically, with a sliding, stainless steel bottle opener.
Those of you more cynical martini types will likely ask, "But what about the beer that gets all shaken up before being opened? Won't it ruin the iPhone?" Shame on you for even thinking about shaking the beer… that is so immature! After rigorous testing under the most stringently controlled laboratory conditions, the inventors have more than proven to the investors that the suds will not reach the circuitry if the device is properly applied.
Video after the jump.

No, sorry :( Try google!
Try sweetheart necklines.
It's linked in the description box of the video (:
Try using some eye creams? I don't have any recommendations as to what ones though, sorry :/
Show that you pay more attention to him than you do to any other guy. Laugh and smile with him. And you can't MAKE someone like you, lol. If only life were that easy …
Put your leg up on the bathtub, and you just gotta pull & maneuver to make it smooth enough to shave it. Can't really explain it …lol.
I use Schick Intuition for legs, armpits and "down there," lol. That's all.
I don't know ..it was part of the theme :/
Just body lotion (:
$30 - $40. I don't remember exactly :/
Marketing (:
Main Street Unionville (:
Nope :/
Aritzia, Club Monaco, Bana Republic? (: Good luck!
I don't know, I've never had to deal with anything like that, lol. Why not get a job, save up some money and purchase things the real way?
Edit: http://asksylvia.tumblr.com/post/22144580457/to-that-anonymously-whos-asking-if-he-she-will-have
It's cute …the shape looks kind of unflattering though. If you're looking for a boyfriend-fit blazer to invest in, maybe this one? click
Check the measurement they give you. It's a lot more accurate that way.
Sedona Lace, Sigma, ELF, etc.
A bright top, and some dark denim?
H&M, Forever21?
I will when I make more! (: Thanks!
I searched "Tiered Cuff Blazer" and 65 pages of stuff showed up ..LOL.
I just applied at Timmies, and yeps. A lot of places don't even ask your age if you look/act mature enough.
Curry rice, steak, salad.
Off shoulder shirt, leggings, colorful socks, headband …flash dance style!
It's not going to repair damaged ends - nothing will. You have to cut it off. It definitely makes your hair softer, but it is pricy. You should try the trial version, it's cheaper and worth it for the try (:
Urban Behaviour? Urban Outfitters? American Eagle?
As for eye makeup, here are some everyday looks that I use:
Sometimes people just eventually lose interest. If he doesn't want to try anymore, there's no much you can do. Tell him that you feel like he doesn't want this relationship anymore, so now you feel like you shouldn't be together. Then see what he says. If he doesn't fight for you, then he's not worth your time anymore.
Thanks. And no, I am not a diet. It's mostly genetics ..but most of the foods I eat are fairly healthy (:
What are you? A stalker? LOL, jeeeez.
Not right now. I'm not at home with them. But I don't really see why it's necessary ..I gave you both links that will show it in more detail than a photo will.

Mmm, vans!
Just any black eyeshadow.
Mmm, I don't know, sorry! I really don't use eyeliners much. I use eyeshadows as eyeliner.
When we met, we lived in two totally different cities. Four hours away from each other. I moved to Toronto for school (not to be closer to my boyfriend), and ended up 10 mins away from him. Then I moved again the next year to be closer to my campus and now I'm 30 mins away from him.
I'll use an eyeliner brush, something like this: http://www.lisewatier.com/_static/webupload/730/35_PINCEAU_EYELINER_3.jpg
Liquid'eye pencil, or something like that. Black! It's too smudgy for the bottom, but I like lining the top with it and then smudging it out with a pencil brush.
I have a lot of money saved up from when I was younger. I've been working since I was 14 (part-time during school, full-time during the summer/winter breaks). I just learn to spend less on things I don't really care about, and more on things that I want to invest in. My parents have bought me a few of my more expensive things as gifts, yes.
About 30 minutes.
One is from my parents, as a graduation gift. And the Tiffany one I got myself.
Milani! That's it. LOL. They're hard to find in Canada though ..my friends from the states send it over for me.
Yay! (:
The first one? We Are Young - Fun ft. Janelle Monae (Alvin Risk Remix)
I don't use bottom eyeliner at all, I just use black eyeshadow :/
Fructis and Macadamia. And your local drugstore (:
7 - 7.5, both were a 37. But I probably could have done 38. They were a big snug (:

Home / Poems / justice / JUSTICE
Justice begotten in exchange is no justice,
For, exchange is trade,
A distressing gain through loss;
Justice is inherent right,
Though wrapped in black packs
In dark hall of race for survival
Like gold strains bound in mud
Till exploited;
She is cool like ice
And still like rock;
No easy road to charm her soul
While hardship makes her no more justice.
She, in inaccessible moon,
She, in inaccessible moon,
She, in inaccessible moon,
A charming dream of undying hopes.
She appears by disappearance
And cracks confidence;
You feel her flight outward
While strange shadows dull your Self;
You cannot catch her back,
You cannot catch her back,
For, in outward flight, she sinks to darkness
Where eyes blind
And distance rises;
Your hands, raised for justice,
Grope in hopeless void till strain
And give up unending fight forever
As dreams never win realities of deceits;
You see her in shades
In gloom's dark sea;
She surfaces from night's unending darkness
Like hopeless inaccessible mirage
In your eyes
While the world sees there plain darkness;
She is unseen to all
She is unseen to all, but,
You, who lost her out;
Men seek justice
In passion's thousand hues,
As she is invisible otherwise;
Aye, justice hides from justice
And breeds injustice.
Why justice is shackled to greed and bribe?
Why justice is fished out from popular mood?
Lost in thick jungle of lightless night,
Like rat, caught in the sack of death,
Like deer, caught in lion's lair,
She never reaches Self by herself.
Justice is the just haunt of nature's all games
What man for his crave molests and tames.
Justice must be just for all to see
In glow of crystal brightness
And impose herself in natural ease
Like flood seizes low-lying lands
And fill all pits of man's callousness;
It is justice of course,
It is justice in natural haunt,
That none gain by trade
Nor lose ever.
For, justice that limps in darkness is justice dead,
A corps you can never infuse life with.
Alas, justice lives feeble life
And yields to injustice in comfort;
It haunts as ghost after death
As if seeking rebirth
To live again weightless life
With no passion for just path,
Nor for anything just and fair.
Justice with no heart for truth,
Justice with no dash for right cause
Is justice dead indeed.

Quote of the day!
Marriage is an exercise in torture.
By Frances Conroy

I am renting an apartment that is covered by the VRLTA. Original lease term is expired and I am currently month-to-month. There is an agreement clause that reads:
"Notwithstanding the lease term, lessee shall give no less than sixty (60) days advance notice to vacate."
Is this enforceable during a month-to-month tenancy? It's obviously beneficial for the landlord as it gives more time to find a new tenant. However if the landlord wants a tenant to move the landlord only gives 30 day advance notice.
Have all of us tenants been duped into giving more notice than we have to? What can we do if the landlord does not reciprocate and only gives 30 day notice?
Dear Arlington Tenant:
I am an attorney licensed in New York. I do not practice law in Virginia.
You may recall when I answered your earlier question I suggested that you post the question again so that a Virginia attorney has a new chance to answer.
You may feel a bit frustrated. Your question is precise. You did your own legal research ( I trust you also checked the links I provided.) Your state statute is expertly drafted, detailed and direct, and yet here you are.
So you may need to spring into a local attorney's office.
Good luck.

As a player of both games, I can truthfully say that while the playerbase is much smaller (~12 million to 300 thousand), the players in EVE are much more mature and patient about bearly everything. Patch got delayed? No big deal. They lost a ship that cost 750 mil ISK? Most pilots congratulate the person who killed them, even though their death had a much higher penalty than dying in WoW. I'm not saying there aren't nice people in WoW, just a much higher percentage of jackasses being, well, jackasses.
My point is, just because a game has a smaller fanbase doesent make one game (or the people) better.

IRVING, Texas – The Cowboys will add a player they're familiar with as they enter the weekend with some uncertainty about the health of their linebackers.
Orie Lemon, who signed with Dallas after going undrafted out of Oklahoma State in 2011, will rejoin the Cowboys from the Cardinals' practice squad. The move bolsters a linebacker spot in need of some depth.
The move could also be protection for
Lemon was with the Chiefs and Cardinals this year after playing in five games for the Cowboys in 2012. He registered a combined five tackles with Dallas last year before going on injured reserve after hurting his hamstring while playing special teams in the Nov. 4 tilt against the Falcons.

This page shows the best fonts for displaying math symbols and other common symbols. The focus is a font for programmers (or in terminal) that has the most Math Symbols ∑ ∞ ∫ π ∈ ℝ² and Dingbats ★ ♥ ✜ ☪ ☯ ☺ ☠. (without relying on the less-than-perfect font-substitution tech from the Operating System.)
There are lots fonts designed for programers, but as soon as you started to use some math symbols or Unicode symbols, they don't work well. Examples:
Two best proportional font for Unicode are DejaVu Sans and Arial Unicode MS. Both are sans-serif.
DejaVu fonts is a suite of fonts containing both fixed-width (monospaced) and variable-width fonts. It is bundled with Ubuntu Linux. It is a free. Download at Source dejavu-fonts.org.
On Microsoft Windows, you should try Arial Unicode MS. It comes with Microsoft Office, and is also in Mac OS X 10.5.
if you don't have it, you can download the trial version of Microsoft Office just to get this font (as of 2010), at Source office.microsoft.com. (the font is in TrueType (TTF) format)
Note that Arial Unicode MS has big gap between lines. So, you may not like it for programing. (but if you use emacs, you can adjust line-spacing. See "toggle-line-spacing" at How to Set Emacs's User Interface to Modern Conventions. )
For a comparison of these 2 fonts for reading, see: Unicode Font Comparison: Arial Unicode MS vs DejaVu Sans.
The DejaVu Sans Mono from the DejaVu font suite is the best.
DejaVu has significantly more Unicode symbols than other popular fixed-width fonts such as {Courier New, Sans Mono, Miriam Fixed, Lucida Console, Lucida Sans Typewriter}.
GNU Unifont also contains most Unicode chars. Comes in most Linux distro. Its home page is at: Source unifoundry.com.
GNU Unifont is a bitmapped font. (it's converted to scalable format (TrueType) in 2008 by Paul Hardy, but still bitmapped by design). This means, if you make the font size large, you'll see jagged edges.
Note: There's also Fixedsys and Code2000 that contains extensive Unicode characters (more than DejaVu). However, their quality is very bad.
Apple has very good font technology with many beautiful fonts. My experience is that it works out of the box for all your Unicode symbol needs. But if you are on a old version of Mac OS X and many Unicode chars on this page shows up as squares, you can install the fonts recommended on this page.
Most so-called Unicode font support Unicode char in the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP). Some math symbols, such as gothic styled variant (𝔄 𝔅 ℭ …), or Double Struck variant (𝔸 𝔹 ℂ …), are not in the BMP and are not widely supported in even so-called Unicode fonts.
For font that support all math symbols, get STIX fonts. However, STIX is designed for typesetting math formulas, it's NOT USABLE for displaying normal text. For detail, see: Math Font, Unicode, Gothic Letters, Double Struck, ℂ ℍ ℕ ℙ ℚ ℝ 𝕊 ℤ ℭ ℑ ℜ ℨ ⅅ ⅆ ⅇ ⅈ ⅉ.
Unicode 6 added a few hundred emoticons, such as GRINNING CAT FACE WITH SMILING EYES 😸. These characters are not in any generic font, as of .
For these, you'll the Symbola font. See: Unicode 6 Emoticons.
No single font has ALL Unicode chars. At best, they contain all chars in the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP). The BMP contains the most common 65.536 k chars. (Unicode has 16 other "planes", but these are rarely used.)
I think it might be inefficient to have a font set to contain all Unicode chars. Both Windows and Mac OS X have Font substitution technology. When a char in the current font doesn't have a glyph, the system search for the glyph in other font set. So, this way, each font can be specially designed for a particular language or purpose, while you can still display many Unicode symbols in the same page.

Thanks to Pete Forman who suggested the font DejaVu.
