VOTE ON IT: Which of Todd's early Super 11s would make YOUR list? SEE OUR PHOTOS
The AJC won't be selecting its annual football Super 11 team of high school seniors until late summer. But discussion begins today with you.
I'm going to throw out 11 names. I haven't studied how all these guys are being recruited. Our Michael Carvell is the expert about that. I just follow high school football. That doesn't mean I haven't heard a few things about recruiting. But my picks might more influenced by the players I've seen or been told about by high school fans and coaches.
Tell me what you think about these 11. Who would you pick?
RB Ean Pemberton, Grayson: He won't be a big recruit because he's not, well, big. He's 5-3. Pemberton rushed for close to 2,000 yards last season. Should a super high school player be Super 11 if he's not a big-time recruit?
OL JaWuan James, North Gwinnett: James is almost the opposite of Pemberton. Good high school player, but not the best player on his

Hi, I'm a relative newcomer to night photography, interested in learning more! I live in the east bay hills near wildcat canyon - no streetlights, and a great environment for working with low light. Canon EOS 7D, reasonable lenses, CS5 & Lightshop.
pretty much a beginner!
- learning how to make the the image match what I see at night - capturing the rays of moonlight in the trees, glow of homes snug against the night, etc. - capturing the night sky - star circles, moon, etc. I just have tripod, camera and remote shutter control.
No answer yet
The founders have a wide range of skills and backgrounds - I've had the pleasure of attending a number of Star Circle events now, both in the field, shooting the night sky, and taking part in webinars. It's all been unbelievably engaging, and has helped introduce me to a vibrant and knowledgeable community. The Star Circle Academy is an incredibly valuable resource for night photographers.

Introduction to this blog
From time to time, I find some problem with Maple. It is not always Maple's bug, sometimes it is just my mistake.
I am used to use "Submit Software Change Request " form, but I dont know how to trace my requests (and I even dont exactly remember which bugs I posted). Thus, I decided to publish my troubles in this blog.
Unless stated otherwise, all the troubles I specify bellow are obtained on the Mac OS X 10.5 PPC platform using Maple 14.01 ...
While doing some Maple plotting I found myself asking why a high-end scientific computation application like Maple, which is capable of essentially very high ("arbitrary") precision floating-point computation, sometimes makes only crude use of hardware precision plot drivers. I looked around a bit, and found that and related issues are not restricted to Maple.
Let's look first at Maxima. Here's my first example, in Maxima (not Maple) syntax,
since i can't find the answer in F.A.Q or by searching so i started this thread on my curiosity on BLOGGING ...
i want to know is there anyway that common members can promote to a degree that allow them become a BLOG Contributor in mapleprimes ?
what are Qualifications and Requirements ?
thanks a lot for your guides and comments !
Maple uses the LGPL licensed GMP as a support library for doing large integer and high precision float computations. There exists is a later version of GMP than was bundled and shipped in Maple 14.x. A natural question is whether it would improve Maple's performance. Another question is whether it can be used within Maple 14.
(This is a reply to PatrickT, who asked about a certain ArrayTools:-Copy example.)
Suppose that you need to do a computation which requires, in part, a certain subportion of a Vector V. Let's call the routine which does the work as `f`. Let's suppose that `f` is a system command and not something that we write ourselves. One natural way to call `f` and supply the subvector is to call `f` like so:
f( V[a..b] );
Here the inner range a..b denotes...
Perhaps you have heard the terms "ordering difference" or "session dependent" applied to results of some Maple computation. It used to get heard more often back before Maple 12, when elements of sets in Maple were ordered according to address.
In this series of blog posts, I have picked on Baseball win-loss records already. Looking for other sources of things that might or might not be random, I decided to look at lottery draws. Since I live in Canada, the obvious lottery to look at is the national Lotto 6/49.
A lotto 6/49 draw consists of drawing 6 numbered balls from...
I've been making some use of the Maple Cloud for a while now, and thought that I'd share some comments.
So far, it's been quite useful to me, and I like it. This surprised me a bit. I expected not to find it useful, and to dismiss it with an old-timer's "Bah, humbug... as useless as Maple+twitter!" But, to the contrary, I've found a use for it; a need that isn't otherwise...
Quite often, when plotting an expression in involving trigonometric functions applied to (a rational polynomial of) the main variable, it is desirable to have the major ticks along the x-axis be labeled by multiples of Pi. In particular, it can be much more appealing to have those tickmarks be labeled with short rationals multiplied by the 2D Math symbol π.
It's been a while since I wrote one of these random posts, but I still have a couple more I wanted to write. In this post, I want to describe one of the tests used in the paper that initially inspired this series of posts: the Wald-Wolfowitz runs test. This test is interesting in that it does not test for uniformity
Let's compare the performance of two methods of computing the inverse of a large datatype=float[8] Matrix.
The two methods are that of calling `MatrixInverse`,...
I used to have a blog entry which contained an except from an Isaac Asimov story entitled "The Feeling of Power".
I had removed that blog entry, but here is a link to the full text.
I was recently reminded of it by two things. The first was that I was reading a blog entry at Walking Randomly which mentioned Maple 14. And I remembered noticing a page on that site before. And the second was ISSAC 2010.
As alluded to in my previous post in this series, one of the most straight forward ways to test if a PRNG is generating good random sequences is by examining the frequency of 0's and 1's. This is just a couple lines in Maple using Statistics:
(**) r1 := rand(0..1):L := [seq(r1(), i=1..10000)]:(**) n := nops(L); tally := `+`(op(L));(**) Statistics:-ChiSquareGoodnessOfFitTest( [n-tally, tally], [n/2, n/2], ':-output'=':-hypothesis');
This describes in more detail (with permission and citation) the method posted here of solving problem 2 in the XKCD comic Substitute.

An Auburn moped rider died today in a crash with a pickup truck on Indiana 3 near the Allen-DeKalb county line, Indiana State Police said.
Scott Albright, 43, died at Parkview Regional Medical Center in Fort Wayne, state police at Fort Wayne said in a statement.
Police said Albright was traveling north on Indiana 3, just south of DeKalb County Road 70, about 6:50 a.m. when his moped collided with a northbound pickup truck driven by John Wilson Jr., 45, of Fort Wayne.
Wilson was not injured, police said. They said Albright was not wearing a helmet.
The DeKalb County and Allen County sheriff's departments, the Huntertown and LaOtto fire departments and Huntertown EMS assisted at the scene, police said.

BMW has released info on its new 2013 M6 Coupe that features lots of stuff that the popular M5 has but places it in a two-door model. At the heart of the new model is its high-revving 4.4L V8 with M TwinPower Turbo Technology that pushes out 560 ponies (with 500 lbs.-ft. of torque), allowing it to sprint from 0-62 mph in only 4.2 seconds.
It also features a 7-speed M Double Clutch Transmission and has a more robust chassis than that of a standard 6-Series. Customer options include some M carbon-ceramic brakes and a set of 19-inch light-alloy wheels (some 20-inch ones will be available as an options soon). Also available are Adaptive LED headlights, a carbon fiber composite roof, and a head-up display in the interior.
The 2013 M6 will go on sale starting in June, with deliveries arriving later this summer. There's also a convertible version that will actually be shown at the New York Auto Show with the coupe debuting in Geneva.

It's official! Like we previously reported, Blake Shelton's new single from "Red River Blue" will be "Over." He'll be performing his new single on television for the first time this week on The Voice. It's the first time he's performing the single on national television, but not the first time he's performed a single on his show – he performed "Honey Bee" with Xenia and Dia Frampton last season.
Dia Frampton will be making her big return to the stage on Tuesday for a performance of her single "Don't Kick The Chair" with Kid Cudi. She was Team Blake's season one finalist, and the season's runner-up.

Senator says attorney in gay marriage case has conflict of interest
By Robert Gehrke
The Salt Lake TribuneFirst published Feb 05 2014 12:43PM
A Democratic state senator called for the immediate resignation of the attorney hired to defend Utah's ban on same-sex marriage, saying a reported deal with a conservative think tank has created a serious ethical breach that makes it impossible for him to represent Utahns with fidelity.
Sen. Jim Dabakis said that the advice from Gene Schaerr to Republican legislators played a key role in killing a statewide non-discrimination bill before it got a hearing and questioned whether Schaerr did so at the behest of The Sutherland Institute, which has said it has hired Schaerr as a fellow.
"It's a very serious conflict of interest and I think he should resign immediately and the attorney general's office should disclose [what the arrangement was]," Dabakis said in an interview Wednesday with The Tribune.
Schaerr is the outside counsel hired to represent Utah before the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals after U.S. District Judge Robert Shelby on Dec. 20 struck down the state's constitutional ban on same-sex marriage. The attorney general's office and The Sutherland Institute argue Schaerr isn't being paid by the think tank — although he may be later — and contend there is no conflict.
Dabakis and Sen. Steve Urquhart, R-St. George, met with Attorney General Sean Reyes Tuesday night to voice concerns about Schaerr's role in defeating SB100, the non-discrimination bill that Urquhart sponsored.
Legislative leaders said that Schaerr, in closed-door meetings with Republicans in the House and Senate, suggested that they not consider any bills related to LGBT issues this session out of fear that it could show "animus" that might harm the state's defense of its gay-marriage ban.
Despite broad public backing and a high-profile show of support that included hundreds of notes taped to the door urging senators to hear SB100, Republican leaders smothered debate on that bill, as well as bills aimed at clarifying that churches don't have to perform gay marriages and other religious protection legislation.
Private vote • On Tuesday, Senate Republicans in a private meeting voted overwhelmingly not to consider Urquhart's anti-discrimination measure, with Urquhart casting the only vote to hear the bill and more than 20 Republican senators voting against him.
Urquhart acknowledged that the Senate vote likely means his bill is dead for the session, "barring some significant, unforeseen event."
"When the lawyers are saying that no bills should go forward because it might affect the litigation," Urquhart said, "that's pretty determinative of what the Legislature is going to do."
However, Urquhart said he disagrees with the attorneys' assessment.
"It's bad lawyering," said Urquhart, who is an attorney. "The best thing to do to show a lack of animus is pass a nondiscrimination law that is favored by 60 percent of the state."
Several hundred blue notes were stuck to the Senate doors demanding lawmakers "Hear SB100."
Senate Majority Leader Ralph Okerlund, R-Monroe, said, given the debate on the issue in the past week, leadership "wanted to make sure the caucus was still with us, and that was very, very clear."
But Dabakis says the justification for not hearing the bills — that it might hurt the lawsuit — is "baloney."
"This whole 'animus-in-the-lawsuit' is the biggest smokescreen," said Dabakis, who is the only openly gay member of the Utah Legislature. He argued it was wrong for the Legislature to take advice from a lawyer who has such a clear conflict.
"We have this guy who has come here from Washington for $200,000 to handle these appeals, and apparently he has a deal with The Sutherland Institute, and apparently he is also lobbying Republicans against statewide non-discrimination," Dabakis said. "Is he lobbying them with the hat on from The Sutherland Institute because he's getting a paycheck, or a promise of a paycheck?"
No conflict • Missy Larsen, spokeswoman for the attorney general, said Schaerr doesn't have a conflict.
"There is no contract between Gene and Sutherland. Gene is totally employed by the state right now," she said.
Paul Mero, president of The Sutherland Institute, said he has a verbal agreement for Schaerr to come to work for the organization after he finishes writing the state's appellate briefs, probably sometime in March, and write two policy papers for attorneys and legislators around the country dealing with the same-sex marriage issue.
Schaerr will be paid for his work, but Mero would not disclose how much he would receive.
"As far as our relationship with Gene, yeah we're going to bring him on as a fellow. I do not have a letter of agreement signed with him and I have not paid him a nickel, a penny," Mero said. "Maybe you don't need to know the facts to string together whatever his concern is, but if the facts are important to his concern, then those are the facts I know."
From a larger perspective, however, Mero noted that the advice Schaerr gave to Republican lawmakers also scuttled numerous religious-freedom bills that Sutherland supported.
"I'm glad Urquhart's bill is dead, but that's because I think it's a bad bill and I wish we'd have a full debate on religious-freedom bills," Mero said. "In other words, I'm no fan of the moratorium. The fact that the moratorium killed Urquhart's bill? Hooray. But I'm not fan of it. I want to have debate on good bills."
Dabakis said, in light of the recent scandal that drove then-Attorney General John Swallow from office, and the role that conflicts of interest played in that saga, he's surprised the attorney general's office wouldn't be more careful — although he praised Reyes for being more sensitive to such issues.
Senate President Wayne Niederhauser said lawmakers are hearing from people on both sides — supporters of the non-discrimination bill and the religious-liberty bills — who want their issues heard this year.
"I guess, unfortunately for SB100, the issue was intensified by Judge Shelby's decision" overturning Utah's same-sex marriage ban, Niederhauser said. "I'm confident the non-discrimination bill will get a fair hearing and a fair process at a time when it is not as charged as it is today."

Not to be confused with Cheapo Records up the street, this place is not particularly cheap, but it sure is weird. And we mean that in the best possible way.
Bobby is one of Boston's coolest cats. Men from all over the greater Boston area come to the South End to peruse Bobby's amazing selection of classic clothing from another era. This is stuff that your grandfather wore – if he was a very stylish man.
Tayrona is named for an ancient indigenous culture that inhabited the mountains of Colombia. But the items that Tayrona carries are by no means limited to South American–influenced styles. The jewelry runs the gamut from clunky costume jewels to delicate gold and silver.
Part flea market and part artists' market, this weekly outdoor event is a fabulous opportunity for strolling, shopping and people-watching. More than 100 vendors set up shop under white tents. It's never the same two weeks in a row, but there's always plenty of arts and crafts, as well as edgier art, vintage clothing, jewelry, local farm produce and homemade sweets.
If you're into maps, you'll be into Ward Maps. They have an incredible collection of original antique and reproduction maps. What's more, they print the maps on coffee mugs, mouse pads, journals and greeting cards, creating unique and personal gifts. Some stuff is ready-made, or you can custom order. Located about a half-mile north of Harvard Sq.
In our humble opinion, every man should own at least one fedora. And if not a fedora, some other fun and functional head-topper. If you are intrigued by this idea, head to Salmagundi, where style mavens Jessen and Andria can help you find a hat that was made for your head, whether you are male or female.
Year after year, this independent bookstore wins 'Best Bookstore in Boston.' Customers love the line-up of author talks and poetry readings, the emphasis on local writers and the Used Book Cellar in the basement. Extra-long hours are also a perk.
On the eastern side of the Green Mountains, Weston is another of Vermont's pristine towns. Its common is graced with towering maples and a bandstand, and is home to an acclaimed summer theater.
Harvard Sq's favorite landmark is Out of Town News. Indeed, dating to 1927, it is a national historic landmark. This quintessential newsstand sells newspapers from every major US city, as well as dozens of cities around the world. Locals panicked when the newsstand threatened to close in 2008.
A sprawling collection of 19th-century farm buildings and elaborate, unkempt gardens, the Fantastic Umbrella Factory , a former commune, got its start as one of Rhode Island's strangest stores in 1968.
Immediately south of College Hill is Fox Point, the waterfront neighborhood where the city's substantial Portuguese population resides.

Seed laws in Latin America: the offensive continues, so does popular resistance
GRAIN | 30 October 2013 | Against the grain
The world's agribusiness corporations are pursuing their attempts to privatize and monopolize our seeds. Their goal is clear: they want to convert the millennial practice of plant breeding into a crime, for their own profit and nothing else. Latin America is one scene of such attacks on public property.

Strategies for Working with Students with Disabilities
A disability may or may not affect the participation of a student in your class. In postsecondary settings, students are the best source of information regarding their special needs. They are responsible for disclosing their disabilities and requesting accommodations. To create a welcome environment, include a statement on your class syllabus inviting students who require accommodations to meet with you. For example, "If you have a documented disability and wish to discuss academic accommodations, please contact me as soon as possible."
Flexibility and effective communication between student and instructor are key in approaching accommodations. Although students with similar disabilities may require different accommodations, it is useful for faculty to be aware of typical strategies for working with students who have various types of impairments. With this basic knowledge you will be better prepared to ask students to clarify their needs and to discuss accommodation requests. Examples are listed below, followed by links to more detailed information.
Learning Disabilities are documented disabilities that may affect reading, processing information, remembering, calculating, and spatial abilities. Examples of accommodations for students who have specific learning disabilities include:
- Notetakers and/or audiotaped class sessions, captioned films
- Extra exam time, alternative testing arrangement
- Visual, aural, and tactile instructional demonstrations
- Computer with speech output, spellchecker, and grammar checker
Mobility Impairments may make walking, sitting, bending, carrying, or using fingers, hands or arms difficult or impossible. Mobility impairments result from many causes, including amputation, polio, club foot, scoliosis, spinal cord injury, and cerebral palsy. Typical accommodations for students with mobility impairments include:
- Notetaker, lab assistant, group lab assignments.
- Classrooms, labs, and field trips in accessible locations.
- Adjustable tables, lab equipment located within reach.
- Class assignments made available in electronic format.
- Computer equipped with special input device (e.g., speech input, Morse code, alternative keyboard).
Health Impairments affect daily living and involve the lungs, kidneys, heart, muscles, liver, intestines, immune systems, and other body parts (e.g., cancer, kidney failure, AIDS). Typical accommodations for students who have health impairments include:
- Notetaker or copy of another student's notes
- Flexible attendance requirements and extra exam time.
- Assignments made available in electronic format, use of email to facilitate communication.
Mental Illness includes mental health and psychiatric disorders that affect daily living. Examples of accommodations for students with these conditions include:
- Notetaker, copy of another student's notes, or recording of lectures.
- Extended time on assignments and tests.
- A non-distracting, quiet setting for assignments and tests.
Hearing Impairments may make it difficult or impossible to hear or understand lecturers, access multimedia materials, and participate in discussions. Examples of accommodations for students who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have an auditory processing disorder, include:
- Interpreter, real-time captioning, FM system, notetaker.
- Open or closed-captioned films, use of visual aids.
- Written assignments, lab instructions, demonstration summaries.
- Visual warning system for lab emergencies.
- Use of electronic mail for class and private discussions.
- Preferential seating and the elimination of unnecessary background noise.
Blindness refers to the disability of students who cannot read printed text, even when enlarged. Typical accommodations include:
- Audiotaped, Brailled or electronic-formatted lecture notes, handouts, and texts.
- Verbal descriptions of visual aids.
- Raised-line drawings and tactile models of graphic materials.
- Braille lab signs and equipment labels, auditory lab warning signals.
- Adaptive lab equipment (e.g., talking thermometers and calculators, light probes, and tactile timers).
- Computer with optical character reader, speech output, Braille screen display and printer output
Low Vision refers to students who have some usable vision, but cannot read standard-size text, have field deficits (for example, cannot see peripherally or centrally but can see well in other ranges), or other visual impairments. Typical accommodations include:
- Seating near front of class.
- Large print handouts, lab signs, and equipment labels.
- TV monitor connected to microscope to enlarge images.
- Class assignments made available in electronic format.
- Computer equipped to enlarge screen characters and images.

Local leaders share holiday traditions
Everyone has holiday traditions or a memorable Christmas that sticks out.
Whether it was receiving the present that you were hoping for all year or simply spending it with family or a significant other, the holidays can be a special time.
Lake Country Publications asked some local school officials and business leaders in the community a few questions on their Christmas experiences over the years.
Glenn Schilling, superintendent of the Hartland-Lakeside School District:
Favorite holiday tradition growing up and why?
One of my favorite holiday traditions was making a Speidini for Christmas Eve and also making Italian Christmas cookies.
Favorite holiday tradition you have now and why?
Our family enjoys going to a tree farm, getting a real (Griswold) Christmas tree and spending the evening putting it up and decorating it. We begin with a chili lunch and then head to our favorite tree farm in Sussex.
Any recent or past memorable holiday moments/gifts that stick out?
One of my most memorable moments was spending Christmas Eve and Christmas Day in London, England.
Anything else relating to the holidays that you enjoy doing or specifically like about the area?
A holiday tradition I enjoy doing with my daughter, whose birthday is a few weeks before Christmas, is going to the stores on the Friday after Thanksgiving, shopping and having lunch together.
Ingrid Herzog, proprietor of Minuteman Press:
Favorite holiday tradition growing up and why?
My early childhood years were spent in Hungary. The Christmas tradition there is such that the tree is not decorated until Christmas Eve. The younger children are tended to by relatives while the parents and older siblings decorate the tree and place the presents underneath. When ready, the entire family sits down for the Christmas dinner. Not until a bell is heard heralding to the little ones that Santa has arrived, do the little eyes get to behold the beautiful tree and presents. Imagine for a child to walk into a previously ordinary room, now filled with incredible lights, ornaments and presents. I can still recall the awe I felt as a child; it was truly magical.
Favorite holiday tradition you have now and why?
We are very proud of our "It's all about the Children" campaign. We ask our customers to bring in toys for the Christmas Clearing Council's one day Toy Shop, and in return they receive a 10 percent discount on their order. Additionally, we have also volunteered in the past years to set up the toyshop with all of our employees. Not only does this benefit the children, but it puts all of us at MMP Waukesha in the holiday spirit. We feel blessed to have the opportunity to own our own business and giving back is very important to us, especially when it helps children.
Yvette Bjorklund, Fred Astaire Dance Studio, Pewaukee:
Favorite holiday tradition you have now and why?
Now that I am older, my Fred Astaire work family traditions have replaced my family traditions long gone. The owners are the nanas or moms and dads of the family who set up fabulous Christmas parties. They too proudly hand out gifts to their staff, which are required to sit front and center donning the Santa hat. Just before they open the gift, the owner acknowledges that individuals accomplishments and exclaims how grateful they are for their services. Then it is off to the Fred Astaire Studios Christmas Trophy Ball, which is an over the top Santa's Workshop/Candy Cane Lane theme at the Hyatt Downtown. This event is where all our professional dance staff put on their Christmas skits to entertain our students while the formal affairs dinner is served. This event kicks off the season for all who participate much like the many Milwaukeeans tradition of attending the Nutcracker Ballet, or driving down Candy Cane Lane each year.
Oconomowoc resident Abby Lorenz, president of Women's Club of Pewaukee, Pewaukee Lake Area Ski Club and Pewaukee Area Arts Council and a performer with the Waukesha Civic Broadway Singers:
Favorite holiday tradition growing up and why?
My favorite holiday tradition was traveling to the grandparent's homes on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day to celebrate with family. I loved hearing stories from grandparents about their lives growing up and how different life was for them without TV, cell phones or computers.
Favorite holiday tradition you have now and why?
We continued the tradition of traveling to grandparent's homes with our children so they could pass along the wonderful morals and values instilled in us. With me being a musician I have a tradition of bringing people together to sing at nursing homes during the holidays. Music brings such joy to those around us. I love seeing smiles on the faces of the elderly, knowing it is bringing back fond memories of days gone by. Music is the gift God has given me, and I feel the need to share my music with those around me.
Any recent or past memorable holiday moments/gifts that stick out?
Just recently I received a letter from a resident at Three Pillars (senior living communities) who shared with me the story of his losing his wife earlier this year, and how grateful he is for his "extended family" at his retirement community. The group I direct is called the Civic Broadway Singers, and he told me how much he was looking forward to having us perform for him in the coming days, because our music is a "memorable and unforgettable musical treasure" for all the residents at Three Pillars.
Anything else relating to the holidays that you enjoy doing or specifically like about the area?
When the kids were younger I remember filling the car with family and friends to tour the Country Christmas display, our state's largest outdoor drive-through light display. I particularly love the nativity scene and train layout, which is my father's hobby. We are blessed to have this beautiful holiday tradition in our own back yard.
Melissa Thompson, Swallow School District superintendent in Hartland:
Favorite holiday tradition growing up and why?
Christmas caroling on Christmas Eve with my grandparents and all of my dad's childhood friends who returned for the holidays. We collected money for UNICEF and it felt so good to do something special for others around the world. Then, we would have appetizers at a neighbor's house before Christmas Eve dinner at my grandparents' house followed by relaxing around a roaring fire.
My grandparents are no longer alive and most of the folks who used to do this and/or coordinate it - my dad's generation - are now in their 70s and 80s. Sadly, this tradition has stopped.
Favorite holiday tradition you have now and why?
I love going to church with my four children on Christmas Eve, having a dinner of stuffed shells (same as when I grew up and now I make them), putting out some reindeer food, helping them to place cookies by the fireplace and tucking them into bed to wait for that ever-exciting Christmas morning.
Any recent or past memorable holiday moments/gifts that stick out?
With our children we place clues in the Advent calendar rather than treats because we discovered that someone (probably the then-2 year old) had been taking the treats in advance of the day. Last year for Christmas Day we put together a final elaborate series of about 12 clues all over the house that included boy and girl gingerbread cookies which the kids amassed in a basket along with the clues. The final clue was found in a frame in my hands - an ultrasound picture of our now-latest addition, Owen who was born in June. They had to read the clue about three times to let it sink in and kept staring at the picture in wonder. It was truly a wonderful moment for our whole family.
The kids were wondering how the calendar would culminate this year and we have assured them, there will not be another baby announcement.

World Cup: Pool D Glance
We continue our countdown to the World Cup by taking a glance at the teams in Pool D.
Teams: Fiji, Namibia, Samoa, South Africa, Wales.
Crunch Clash: Sunday 11 September: South Africa v Wales, Wellington (10:30)
IRB ranking (as of August 29): 15
World Cup appearances (including 2011): 6
World Cup best: Quarter-finals 1987, 2007
In perhaps the tightest pool of all, Fiji will be competing all the way with Samoa and Wales for second place behind likely group winners South Africa. The Fijians, like their hosts, live and breathe rugby, the game dating back on the island to 1884.
Their pace and daring nature has seen them become a byword for the sevens game and they now will have the chance to win Olympic gold in Rio in 2016, but they have never quite broken through in the 15-man code.
Four years ago, however, they stunned Wales to reach the last eight where they gave South Africa a decent show. In Sireli Bobo and Raupeni Caucaunibuca they have two of the best backs in the world, but they will miss Jone Qovu and Isa Nacewa.
Fiji: Campese Ma'afu, Deacon Manu (captain), Setefano Somoca, Waisea Daveta, Viliame Veikoso, Tuapati Talemaitoga, Sunia Koto, Seko Kalou, Leone Nakarawa, Wame Lewaravu, Rupeni Nasiga, Dominiko Waqaniburotu, Sisa Koyamaibole, Akapusi Qera, Netani Talei, Masi Matadigo, Malakai Ravulo, Nemia Ranuku, Vitori Buatava, Waisea Luveniyali, Seremaia Bai, Nicky Little, Albert Vulivuli, Gabirieli Lovobalavu, Ravai Fatiaki, Vereniki Goneva, Napolioni Nalaga, Michael Tagicakibau, Kini Murimurivalu, Iliesa Keresoni .
IRB ranking: 20
World Cup appearances: 4
World Cup best: Pool stages
Namibia qualified for their fourth World Cup with victory over Ivory Coast and won the IRB Nations Cup in 2010, but will have ambitions no greater than chalking up a first-ever win at the global showcase.
Even that is going to be tough in this tightly-contested pool where every point scored against the Namibians, who have yet to record a win against any of their four opponents, could be crucial. The spectre of their 142-0 defeat by Australia eight years ago could come back to haunt them.
The Welwitschias, whose greatest players Jan Ellis and Percy Montgomery both played for South Africa, will relish the prospect of taking on the Springboks.
Namibia: Johannes Bock, Chrysander Botha, Hendirk Dames, Darryl de la Harpe, Ryan de la Harpe, Eugene Janjties, Theuns Kotze, Tertius Losper, Conrad Marais, David Philander, Llelwellyn Winkler, Daniel van Wyk, Mcgrath van Wyk, Willem van Zyl, Jacques Burger (captain), Egbertus O'Callerghan, Nico Esterhuyse, Hendrik Franken, Hugo Horn, Uakazuvara Kazombiaze, Rohan Kitshoff, Heinze Koll, Raol Larson, Pieters van Lill, Jacques Nieuwenhuis, Reaud van Neel, Tinus du Plessis, Johannes Redelinghuys, Johannes du Toit, Marius Visser.
IRB ranking: 10
World Cup appearances: 6
World Cup best: Quarter-finals 1991, 1995
Watching Samoa is not for the faint-hearted. In between some dazzling running - which has earned them plenty of success in the sevens arena - they are renowned as the hardest tacklers on the planet.
Wales were the first high-profile victims when they were tackled into submission in (Western) Samoa's World Cup entry in 1991. They beat the Welsh again in 1999 and ran England close in 2007. In July, they chalked up a major first by blowing away a sub-par Australia in Sydney.
The squad is fully professional and battle-worn with players like Census Johnson, Ti'i Paulo and Joe Tekori. Playing on what is effectively home soil, the Samoans may even start as favourites ahead of Wales to take second spot in the pool.
Samoa: Ole Avei, Maurie Faasavalu, Census Johnston, Filipo Lavea Levi, Daniel Leo, Logovi'i Mulipola, Ti'i Paulo, Anthony Perenise, Manaia Salavea, Mahonri Schwalger, George Stowers, Sakaria Taulafo, Joe Tekori, Kane Thompson, Ofisa Treviranus, Taiasina Tuifua, Kahn Fotuali'i, David Lemi, Johhny Leota, Seilala Mapusua (captain), Eliota Sapolu Fuimaono, Tasesa Lavea, Augustino Poluleuligaga, George Pisi, Tusi Pisi, James Sooialo, Jeremy Sua, Sailosi Tagicakibau, Alesana Tuilagi, Paul Williams.
South Africa
IRB ranking: 3
World Cup appearances: 5
World Cup best: Winners 1995, 2007
Obvious favourites to qualify as pool winners, the Springboks will be aiming to do what no team have yet managed - to retain their World Cup crown.
Champions under Francois Pienaar on home soil in 1995 and current skipper John Smit four years ago, the South Africans head down under with a stable squad and with class oozing from every department - from Victor Matfield and Schalk Burger up front to the likes of Bryan Habana, JP Pietersen and Francois Steyn in the backs.
The Boks have never lost to Fiji, Samoa or Namibia and only once in 25 meetings against Wales. On the flip side, they have never been too happy travelling to New Zealand and if the seedings are followed they are due to meet the hosts in the semi-finals at Eden Park, Auckland - a ground where they haven't beaten the All Blacks since 1937.
South Africa: John Smit (captain), Willem Alberts, Bakkies Botha, Heinrich Brussow, Schalk Burger, Bismarck du Plessis, Jannie du Plessis, Francois Louw, Victor Matfield, Tendai Mtawarira, Johann Muller, Chiliboy Ralepelle, Danie Rossouw, Pierre Spies, Gurthro Steenkamp, CJ van der Linde, Gio Aplon, Juan de Jongh, Jean de Villiers, Fourie du Preez, Jaque Fourie, Bryan Habana, Francois Hougaard, Butch James, Pat Lambie, Odwa Ndungane, Ruan Pienaar, JP Pietersen, Frans Steyn, Morne Steyn.
IRB ranking: 6
World Cup appearances: 7
World Cup best: Third place 1987
Ask a Welshman about his team's chances and he will invariable say: "I'll tell you after Samoa". If there is a quiver of trepidation in his voice as he says it, then it is justified as the Samoans have twice dumped Wales out of the World Cup.
Get through that one and the Welsh can breathe a little easier although they still have to negotiate Fiji, the side that dumped them out four years ago. In November, they lost narrowly to South Africa before being held to a draw by the Fijians. That was followed by three wins in the Six Nations with defeats by England and France.
Thirty-four year old wing Shane Williams, with 55 tries for Wales, is the only true world-class player in Warren Gatland's squad although this may be the occasion for a number of those bubbling just under - such as flanker Josh Turnbull and utility back James Hook - to make the step up.
Wales: Huw Bennett, Ryan Bevington, Lloyd Burns, Luke Charteris, Bradley Davies, Toby Faletau, Paul James, Gethin Jenkins, Adam Jones, Alun Wyn Jones, Ryan Jones, Dan Lydiate, Craig Mitchell, Ken Owens, Andy Powell, Sam Warburton (captain), Aled Brew, Lee Byrne, Jonathan Davies, Leigh Halfpenny, James Hook, Stephen Jones, Tavis Knoyle, George North, Mike Phillips, Rhys Priestland, Jamie Roberts, Lloyd Williams, Scott Williams, Shane Williams.

2 Shock seekers look for new thrill in 'poo-machine'
Smelling excrement may not be everyone's idea of fun, but for those who like to push the boundaries, Australia's most controversial new museum may be just what they are looking for. The most talked-about piece is the Cloaca Professional, labelled the "poo-machine." It was built by Belgian artist Wim Delvoye to mimic the actions of the human digestive system. A series of glass receptacles hang in a row with the machine being "fed" twice a day on one end. The food is ground up "naturally," the way it is in the human body, and the device produces faeces on the clock at 2 pm at the other end. The smell is so powerful that not many visitors can take it. Its motto is to shock, offend, inform and entertain. Reuters

Madrid Cancels Bizav Airport Plan
According to Spanish media reports, officials in the country's capital, Madrid, have shelved plans to construct a $235 million general aviation airport south of the city in El Alamo. Citing budget cuts and demand forecasts, the administration of regional President Esperanza Aguirre is seeking to close Aeropuertos de Madrid, the government-owned agency that had completed the airport's construction design plans. According to the Spanish Executive Aviation Association (Aesave), last year there were approximately 9,000 flights by business jets in Spain, half of them through the Madrid region. Those aircraft are currently required to use a terminal at Madrid Barajas International Airport, the country's busiest, or the nearby military airstrip at Torrejon de Ardoz.

Too bad Texas (and the rest of the United States) isn't a democracy. Fucking idiots. Federal Republic.

You could rape someone's daughter and spend as little as a year in prison*;
or you could expose a rapist by means of hacking and spend ten times their sentence for simply breaking into a computer²;
or you could share movies, music, and games and hang out in general population for five years or more³;
or you could commit wire fraud, computer fraud, and illegally intercept a wire communication and spend around four years in the slammer†;
or you could create a MySpace worm that caused someone's account to friend your account and making that user post that you are their hero leading you to get three years of probation and 90 days of community service, along with financial restitution to MySpace‡;
and somehow this leads me to believe that more daughters of influential American politicians need to be raped. Maybe then the cogs that form the machine that is our government would start churning and realize that they are nothing but a plutocracy disguised as a constitutional republic disguised as a democracy. Or, you know, a guy playing a guy, pretending to be a guy. Powerful corporations "help" our government establish laws and their respective punishments out of greed and the need to maintain the bottom line of their business, however corrupt the "need."

Official Launch of the Diversity Kit, the Creativity Game in the Dominican Republic
UNESCO's Regional Office for Culture in Latin America and the Caribbean, in collaboration with the Dominican National Commission for UNESCO and the Spanish Cultural Centre, officially launched from 22 to 26 November 2010 the Diversity Kit, an educational and playful tool for youth aged 12 to 16.
The kit aims to make the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions more approachable to youth. During the launch, the playful and dynamic component of this tool was highlighted. The Creativity Game fosters, in a collaborative context, awareness of the value of diversity and helps young people become aware of their own creative capacities.
Along with the launch of the Diversities Kit, a trainer training workshop was organized, involving teachers and public managers from all over the country. This activity is a clear step in the dissemination and implementation of the Kit throughout the Dominican education network.

Big Ten announces venues for major football, basketball games
Indianapolis, IN, United States (4E Sports) – The Big Ten announced that its football championship game will remain in Indianapolis at Lucas Oil Stadium through 2021.
However, Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said the league's men's basketball tournament will rotate between Chicago's United Center (2019, 2021) and Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis (2020, '22).
Delany added the women's basketball tournament will be played in Indianapolis from 2017-22.
"We've always intended to use those cities," Delany said. "They've been great partners. We're fortunate to have great fan bases in both places, tried and true success in both of these cities."
He said the moves give the conference "a lot of stability going forward."
Last month, the league caused a stir when it announced the 2017 men's basketball tournament would be played in Washington D.C. at the Verizon Center.
The Big Ten adds new members Maryland and Rutgers on July 1, and moving the tournament to Washington is part of a larger East Coast push, which includes opening a second league office in New York City.
The Big Ten basketball tournament has been played only in Indianapolis or Chicago since its inception in 1998.
The basketball tournament will be played in Chicago next March and in Indianapolis in 2016. Negotiations on the site for the 2018 event continue and an announcement should come later this month.

Dark Horse Moves On, Sun Sets in East
by Greg Panfile
3:30 a.m., Friday, Nov. 30, 2001. I'm fast asleep with the TV on, the antiterror war chanting "Tora Bora, Tora Bora" in the background. I awake to these words: "Former Beatle George Harrison is dead at age 58." George Harrison had left my life, and those of millions, the same way he entered it: unusually, and on television. Dead of cancer on Thursday, Nov. 29, 2001, the announcement delayed for his family's sake.
It wasn't unexpected, this bookend to the cathode-lit black-and-white night in the early 60s I first saw him play, via tape on the Jack Paar version of the "Tonight Show." George had been ill for awhile, the news departments seemed to be prepared. Like so many, I "relived" and recalled the musical mania that followed from that first Ed Sullivan show, when George and his mates turned hormones, adrenalin, electricity and genius into a cultural phenomenon that will never be duplicated and will last forever. As Yogi Berra or Ringo Starr might have said: After the Beatles, the future will never be the same.
And there could be no Beatles without George Harrison. Collectively, electronically, emotionally, in all media, and only with his passing, came the revelation of the sheer musical brilliance and variation of this "quiet" man who had so much to say; this "serious" incessant jokester who scaled the greatest heights of fame, fortune, and achievement. Despite so much exposure he had been elusive in life; his private, obsessive focus on musical excellence and general lack of "pushiness" so often concealing the artful way in which George pulled more than his share of the weight while seeming, somehow, to be just tagging along.
Over the next few days, his life as seen from without unfolded in the sound and pictures of countless radio and television retrospectives, revealing more than the eye met when he walked among us. It turns out that Beatle George was a musician's musician, a genius at that art, and a very complicated man who packed an immense amount of living into his 58 years. After the incredible excesses of Beatlehood came to an end, he went on as a solo artist to achieve "hit" status in each of four consecutive decades (five total!), and left a legacy of brilliant session work with most of the greatest songwriters and performers of his era. As a film producer in the 80s, he brought to light such comic gems as Monty Python's "Life of Brian" (1979) and the surreal "Brazil" (1985) with Robert deNiro; Add to this staging the first superstar benefit (Concert for Bangladesh, 1971), the first triple album ever (All Things Must Pass, 1970), and just a few of the great musicians he played with after the Fab Three: Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison, Eric Clapton, Carl Perkins, Leon Russell.
Not bad for a bus driver's son born in wartime England (Liverpool, 1943) and high school dropout. At age 15, a slacking George dreamt of rock stardom in America. At age 20 (1964), he had it, and was one of the most famous people in the world. He burst upon us (the Ed Sullivan show, the film "A Hard Day's Night") dancing and grinning, with slicing wit and an understated, unique approach to lead guitar ... a mixture of rockabilly, jazz, and blues that made the Beatles flow. While Ringo pounded the earth and kept time, reining in the fiery and airy excesses of John and Paul, George played the watery role, filling in as needed and making it all smooth, and always with a sound and style all his own.
From this center, George grew musically during the Beatle years, gradually becoming more involved with songwriting and arranging, notably on Revolver (1966), to which he contributed three original songs including the rocking opener "Taxman." An interest in Indian music and philosophy that began on the set of the film "Help!" (1965) led to a friendship and apprenticeship with sitarist Ravi Shankar, and George's commitment to Eastern thought and religious concepts stayed with him throughout his life (and beyond it, as his ashes have been scattered on holy rivers in India), musically and otherwise.
"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" (1968) set a new standard of songwriting quality for George, and began a decades-long friendship and musical collaboration with fellow legend Eric Clapton. With the release of "Something" (the only Beatle song ever covered by Frank Sinatra) and "Here Comes The Sun on Abbey Road" (1969), George hit his stride as a songwriter, setting the stage for his solo career. "All Things Must Pass" starts and dominates George's that era, featuring the megahit "My Sweet Lord," an ecumenical tour de force of devotional rock and near-perfect ear candy.
George never had the personality or vocals to front a band or tour consistently, and even in the Beatle years didn't care for stardom and self-promotion much. He always seemed more musically comfortable among equals or superiors as just one of the boys, and that direction dominated his musical life in the 80s and 90s. Sporadic solo albums were woven occasionally between tours with Eric Clapton (1992), sessions with the superstar Traveling Wilburys (1988-90), and sessions behind the wheel of serious racecars; George's driving idol was the late Richard Petty. He and second wife Olivia" raised a son, Dhani, and saw him graduate from college just recently. The "Beatles Anthology project (1995-6), and solo works including "When We Was Fab" (1988) and "All Those Years Ago" (1981), show a George musically and peronsally comfortable with his past and present, always keenly observing and putting his feelings on the line at the same time, a real talent if ever there was one.
The horrid violation of his personal space by a knife-wielding would-be assassin in 1999 was the last, darkest spot in George's life, and while that can't have helped he was not well before it. Still, while there is a feeling of sadness, there is not the violence and suddenness associated with John Lennon's death, and George did make it almost to 60 while Lennon only reached 40. Though he might have lived longer, he did live plenty, a full and interesting life, and George Harrison left the world more a more beautiful place than when he entered it. Even his exit seemed almost planned, foreshadowed by songs such as "All Things Must Pass" and "The Art of Dying" (both 1970); reports say that a nearly-finished last solo collection will appear before too long, and he had already initiated plans for a full boxed set of demos, alternates, and outtakes. As the next decade goes by and numerous 40th anniversary of the Beatles' this-or-that milestones pass, a George Harrison Anthology will be part of any reasonable future, and a good thing I look forward to eagerly.
In his later years he loved gardening most of all, content to live a private life, at peace with his individual and group legacies. And if there is one song that sums up what George had to offer and who he was musically, and one recording of it ... the "Anthology 3" slow version of an acoustic "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" would be it. Solo voice, lovely quiet acoustic guitar, and a simple yet effective Hammond organ overdub ... The voice is that of an outsider, an observer, yetsomeone who empathizes. At least some of the time, George was being quiet because he was paying attention rather than seeking it:
I look from the wings at the play you are staging while my guitar gently weeps; As I'm sitting here doing nothing but aging, still my guitar gently weeps.
So it did, and for me, for many of us, it still does. Rest in peace, George; you are number one ("All Things Must Pass," remastered with bonus tracks, 2001) and you have always been. Play on.

I'm a little leery about that.
I'm a little leery about that.
"Come, let us show you a new way to entreat your gods, which are not ours but we know what will make them happy anyway." Feels awfully suspect, too.
And it still leaves me scratching my head as to how Troll Druids and Priests coexist; as said before, The Night Elves make it work by separating the animal (Cenarius) and the celestial (Elune) divine, and the tauren worship everything, so it works there. There is no such division as of yet among the trolls, and that's a little bothersome right now.

"Cast upon me your envious eyes as I stand at the epitome of perfection and nobility. As the insects crawled upon the earth as pests and plagues, you too cast a blight on the ground with your sordid existence.
Gaze upon your superior, your ruler, your god. Nothing can topple my existence as I dwell within all of your rotting heart. I am pride, the master of monarchy, epitome of elitists, the source of hatred and war."
Superbia, aka pride in latin, is the second of the series I'm working on. And yes, he's a fox, a Corsac Fox to be exact. :3
