Census implementing virtualization-first policy
Friday - 5/13/2011, 6:37pm EDT
Brian McGrath, the chief information officer at the Census Bureau, says his agency is about to implement a "virtualization-first" policy.
He tells Federal News Radio's Jason Miller, "All new applications will be serviced via a virtualized guest as opposed to a bare-metal deployment of hardware. Unless there is a compelling engineering or architechture reason to do so, we see significant opportunities for cost savings."
McGrath says this new policy will allow the Census Bureau to transition its data centers "from one of only servicing the Census Bureau to being positioned to service and provide compute and store resources, and cooling resources, and secure resources for other government agencies."
In fact, McGrath says the International Trade Agency, a sister organization of the Census Bureau, will close one of its data centers in June and move into a Census data center.
The Census Bureau is also in the process of closing some of its own data centers. By the end of 2011, it will close six that were stood up for the 2010 census.
McGrath tells Miller the Census Bureau is also in the process of testing the use of the Internet to collect data as part of its preparation for the 2020 count. By the end of this year, the Bureau will have conducted 60 American Community Surveys online.
As for the storage of all that data, McGrath says that's staying in the Bureau's private cloud.
"Any of our sensitive data, personal identifiable information, or Title 13 or Title 26 data, which we are stewards of, will remain in our private cloud. At this point, we're not seeing any capacity issues. We're obviously always focused and concerned about IT security to ensure that we could manage the flow of information, store the information, and secure it in such a way as to protect the identity and integrity of the information we are currently capturing."

My Dog Is Human: Sleeping with Dogs
I love sleeping with Mochi since he's so fluffy. Unfortunately, he's discovered the luxury of a pillow and often takes over mine. In the past two years, I've gotten used to waking up at 3 a.m. with a white, furry ass next to my face and getting pawed in the ribs.
This pig.
Cats do this too. Oh Eloise.

"The disk usage on the destination doesn't match the source -- did CCC miss some files?"
CCC doesn't copy virtual memory or the Trash
There are a couple legitimate explanations for a mismatch between the capacities reported in Disk Utility. First, some system files and folders are excluded from a backup task either because they are regenerated every time your machine reboots, or they are not appropriate to back up or because they won't work properly on another hard drive or computer. The largest and most notable excluded item is the /private/var/vm/sleepimage file. The sleepimage file contains the live state of your Mac's RAM, so it will be as large as the amount of RAM that you have installed. Considering that the amount of RAM pre-installed is only increasing, and that this file changes constantly and gets recreated on startup, CCC excludes this file from your backup task.
CCC also excludes the contents of the Trash, so you may want to empty the Trash, then compare again the source and destination. An exhaustive list of the items that CCC excludes is included in the CCC Help section labeled "Some files and folders are automatically excluded from a backup task".
If your source volume is the startup disk, the Size of Trash and VM application will quickly tell you exactly how much data is in these folders that CCC is excluding. In most cases, this explains all of the discrepancy that users notice during an initial backup task.
The sum of all your files may never match the disk usage value reported by Disk Utility
While the exclusion of these items explains much of the disk capacity discrepancy you may discover in Disk Utility, it does not explain it all. A user suggested the following scenario after cloning his entire source to his destination drive:
Boot drive - 39.67 GB used Backup drive - 38.55 GB used
Should I be concerned there's more than a GB missing? Could this be a swap file or something? Is there an easy way to isolate what files are not on both?
One GB seems like a lot, but it's not surprising, not for 40GB used (the discrepancy increases with the amount of data on your boot volume). Discrepancies like this are not uncommon when you're booted from the source or (subsequently) the destination.
The issue is that Disk Utility (and Finder Get Info for the volume) is misleading. The value that Disk Utility reports is indeed the amount of space consumed on your hard drive, however, it is not the amount of space consumed on the drive by all the files and folders that you can see. And I'm not referring to the other files as simply "invisible", these other files and directories that make up the rest of the space you're "missing" are simply not presented to the operating system. These items are filesystem implementation details, and it isn't possible to copy them directly with file-level copying tools.
Does this mean you're losing data? Absolutely not. It's pretty easy to prove it to yourself too, just boot from your cloned volume and take a look at the capacity reports in Disk Utility. Here's an example we performed on a test machine:
** Booted from the original source volume Source: 5,258,776,576 bytes Clone: 5,025,562,624 bytes
**Booted from the clone volume Source: 4,996,599,808 bytes Clone: 5,250,097,152 bytes
Disk Utility can't really be used as a good measure of success for your clone. That's not to say that what it reports is wrong, it simply isn't telling the whole story.
"Right, OK, but how can I tell that all of my data was actually copied?"
The numbers reported by Disk Utility and Finder for total disk usage on the source and destination are essentially irrelevant if they can't be meaningfully compared. What can be compared, however, is a basic enumeration of the files and folders on your source and destination volumes. The Volume Disk Usage Details tool can help you collect this kind of thorough enumeration. When this tool has completed collecting this enumeration for your source and destination volumes, you can compare the reports to find any discrepancies. You can use this tool to enumerate individual folders as well if you need to get more granular details about a discrepancy in a particular folder. Note: This utility has not been tested for use on network volumes. It can do no harm, but you may encounter permissions errors with items on network volumes, or it may simply report inaccurate values for those volumes. We recommend using this tool only on locally-attached volumes or mounted disk images.
If you find a discrepancy that you cannot explain, or that appears to be errant, please let us know and we'll help you get to the bottom of it.

Photoset of Pink Floyd having a good time… and one member´s struggle at expressing happiness
(Source: youtube.com)
Photoset of Roger Waters looking like he belongs in a screamo band
:Amusing, yeah. Richard Wright talks about when Rog knew his bass was out of tune, he'd stick the head of his bass over Richard's keyboards to get him to tune it for him. When Rog had no clue he was out of tune, David was forced to chase him around the stage and sort him out. How someone without any sense of pitch is considered one of the great songwriters of our era will have to remain one of life's great mysteries, I guess.
Roger: I have fallen and I cannot get up.
Rick: *Accidentally steps on Roger*
Nick: THIS IS AN ACCIDENT TOO!

The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights has taken interest in the handling of the sexual assault allegations against Jameis Winston.
As college football fans, we all remember the impact that Winston had on the nation last season. His presence on the field left defenses befuddled. His passing abilities, accompanied with his leg strength, left opposing coaches scrambling. And his "greatness-with-ease" persona left spectators in awe. He put Florida State back in the limelight, won the final BCS National Championship and grabbed the attention of fans from North Carolina to California.
Oh, and he won the Heisman trophy.
Winston was the face of college football in 2013. He had everything a freshman QB could ask for. But there was one little ink spot on his resume. And until now, it looked like nothing more than just a smudge. But with the beginning of a federal investigation into the actions of this young star and the university he represents, that spot could ruin everything. Just as quickly as it came, his status and all of his accomplishments could be tainted further by controversy, or even worse, disappear in a snap.
Including the Heisman.
In recent years, the coveted trophy has been given to some less than reputable characters. During his two seasons (2007/2008) enrolled at the University of Florida, Cam Newton was arrested for the reportedly stealing a lap top, and was rumored to face expulsion for violating the academic honor code on three separate occasions. Upon his transfer to Auburn from Blinn College, suspicions began to arise regarding the involvement of financial compensation of his recruitment by AU's coaching staff. Nevertheless, after playing his one and only season with the Tigers, Cam Newton was handed the most prestigious individual award in CFB.
In December of 2010, he took home the Heisman trophy.
In June of 2012, Johnny Manziel was arrested for failing to properly identify himself, possessing a fake driver's license and disorderly conduct by fighting after an altercation in College Station. Following the incident, Texas A&M punished the star by suspending him for the entire season, and "forced" him to consider playing for another institution. In fact, if it wasn't for his coach, Kevin Sumlin, supporting Manziel's appeal and persuading the university to drop the suspension, the QB would have made his way to another team. But as we all know, he led the Aggies in 2012 and earned the title of "Johnny Football."
Just six short months after his arrest, he was awarded the Heisman.
Every year we turn on the television, blast the volume and intently listen to the life stories of the finalists invited to New York. By the time the ceremony comes around, the media has already ramped up the candidates. These are the select few who seem to have conquered football at the collegiate level, impressed the media with their outstanding statistics, and in reality, played on a team exciting enough to grab a coveted spot in the weekly Top 10 list a few times. After each game throughout the season, we are constantly reminded of the criteria used to measure our candidate hopefuls. Physical ability is important. However,
I've never seen a list, a scale or a chart that measures the character of a player.
The Heisman Trust Mission Statement claims that the trophy "recognizes the outstanding college football player whose performance best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity."
If the award truly fit its description, the integrity of each player would hold a higher value than that of their statistics. And if that were the case, the Heisman voting committee wouldn't now be second-guessing their decision in 2013. They wouldn't have to. If integrity was the leading quality, or even if it was just as important as physical performance, Jameis Winston would not have even stepped foot on the stage.
AJ McCarron would have been your winner.
A game lost, an interception or a fumble will never go unnoticed, but the demeanor of a finalist can be swept under the rug. I could write for hours explaining all of the reasons why he deserved the award, and list all of his charitable work, support for various causes and the qualities that make him a class act. But I don't have to. Like Newton, Manziel and Winston, McCarron's name speaks for itself.
But unlike the other three, it's something worth hearing.

The doctor or nurse will take two measurements:
On an upright scale, the doctor or nurse will weigh your child. He'll first be asked to take off his shoes and coat.
The doctor or nurse will have your child stand with his heels close together, legs straight, arms at his sides, shoulders relaxed. She'll take the measurement using a bar that slides down to the top of your child's head.
Yes, you can, although it won't be as accurate as when the doctor or nurse does it. If you want to give it a try:

Premium Content Analysis of Medea as a Tragic Character
By Michael Kliegl - December 08, 2002
What lends tragic literature its proximity to human nature is that the border between being a tragic villain and a tragic hero is extremely thin.
A question that this statement will certainly bring up is whether there is such a thing as a hero or a villain or whether these terms are defined by the ideals of the society. Tragedies such as Macbeth or…

Firmware (v3.40) created by this Layout Designer
and New Default Firmware (v3.40)
solve the double letters issue and increase response time.
The Truly Ergonomic Keyboard provides for fully programmable keys and layout customization, allowing for uncommon and unique key configurations.
All keys are fully programmable. You can change the logical position of any key, add as many logical keys as you want, add special functionality to any key, have unique key configurations, and have up to six different layouts at once. Custom keys and layouts are saved internally so you can connect your Truly Ergonomic Keyboard to any computer without the need to install any additional software or to reprogram each time.
Yes, the Truly Ergonomic Keyboard is fully programmable beyond what is available via DIP switches.
Important information
We have thought long and hard about the Truly Ergonomic Keyboard's layout. We suggest you use it and benefit from it before experimenting with customizations.
Consider that although this "Layout Designer" works on newest browsers for most Operating Systems allowing you to create your own custom Layout/Firmware file, the application to upgrade the Layout/Firmware file into your Truly Ergonomic Keyboard is currently compatible with Windows only. Nonetheless, you can use any compatible computer running Windows, including Mac OS X Boot Camp, to upgrade the Layout/Firmware. Once upgraded, you can use your Truly Ergonomic Keyboard in compatible computers running diverse Operating Systems including Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux.
Default Layouts
You can review the default layout of your Truly Ergonomic Keyboard if connected to a computer with diverse keyboard languages in our "Default Layouts" section.
There is no need for you to customize the layout if you use the default layout of your language.
Layouts already made
When you arrive at this "Layout Designer" page, the default layout that shows below on the "TrulyErgonomic" layout is for Model 209 (ANSI-ISO), even if you change the "TECK Model".
Additionally, we have already created diverse layouts you can use to enhance your Truly Ergonomic Keyboard. You can also start the "Layout Designer" with a Default layout for your particular model/language. Review them at our Support – Alternate Layouts section before creating something already made.
Use these layouts as they are or you can open them in the "Layout Designer" to change required functionality, you can then save the firmware/layout file to upgrade your keyboard and save the layout as a new template for later use or to share it.
Save layout for future changes
If in the future you want to reopen your layout to make any additional changes, you must first "Bookmark or Share" your layout:
- Click on the "Bookmark or Share" button, a link will be provided, save this link in your computer and/or add it to your Bookmarks.
- When you want to reopen this layout to make further changes, open the link provided and continue enhancing your layout.
- After you have made more enhancements, click the "Save file" button and save the Layout/Firmware file to your computer, then click "Bookmark or Share" once again so you receive a new link for your new layout. Save this new link in your computer and/or add it to your Bookmarks.
You can also share these links so others can benefit from your layout. Links are unique and nobody can overwrite your saved layout. Links are quite long, around 1000 bytes in length, if you want to share them you can consider using a link shortener.
Only works on newest Browsers
This "Layout Designer" only works on newest Browsers: Firefox and Chrome
If your browser does not allow you to drag a key from the layout above into the TrulyErgonomic layout, or does not allow you to save the file into your computer: you can upgrade your browser, use a different browser, or use a different computer.
- Not all keys are recognized by all Operating Systems (OS). If you install a key incompatible with your OS or your selected keyboard language, the key will simply be ignored by the OS.
- After you have upgraded your Truly Ergonomic Keyboard, if when using it you press a key and a different letter/symbol than expected show on your computer, it means you have to make sure the keyboard language in your computer is set to the default Qwerty – this is the default on all computers, make sure it is not set as Dvorak or any other.
Make sure you do not end up with a case of "double translation". This will happen if your keyboard is remapped to an Alternative Layout and you also have an Alternative Layout selected in your Operating System (OS). There can be only one! You can leave your keyboard Qwerty and use the Alternative layout in your OS, or you can remap the keyboard and use the standard Qwerty layout in the OS.
As well, make sure that you are not using third party software that affects the functionality of keyboards – like AutoHotKey or KeyRemap4MacBook. Otherwise, your computer can have a "double translation" – this could happen as well when your keyboard sends different key codes of what your computer is expecting and your settings on your computer are changing the key codes a second time.
- You can have up to 6 distinct layers programmed at the same time. For each position of the DIP switch #2 (ON – Primary layers or OFF – Alternate layers), you can configure a "Main" layer, "Num" layer, and "Fn" layer. You can have any combination of keys for each layer.
- When using your keyboard, you can choose to use the Primary layers (DIP switch #2 ON) or Alternate layers (DIP switch #2 OFF), this is controlled by the DIP switch #2 located on the underside of the keyboard. By default, Primary layers are set for Windows/Linux and Alternate layers are set for Mac OS X.
- If you use or want to have two distinct layouts (Qwerty/Alternate) or use two computers (Windows/MacOSX) without the need to constantly flip DIP switch #2, you can consider having one layout in the "Main" layer, and the secondary layout on the "Num" layer, having the Num‑LED showing if you are using the secondary layer – you can then use the "Fn" layer for the numeric keypad as well as special functionality. Review here.
- If you are using Mac OS X and prefer to have the
Fnkeys functionality as default, compared to require to press the Fnalong F6-F12keys, you can reprogram Fnfunctionality on the "Main" layer and F1‑F12keys on the "Fn" layer. Review here.
Using the firmware provided by this "Layout Designer"
- DIP switch #1, #3, and #4 are disabled.
- DIP switch #2 selects "Primary" (ON) or "Alternate" (OFF) layers.
- DIP switch #5 protects or allows firmware to be reprogrammed – same as before.
The "Layout Designer" and all related programs (the application) are specifically designed to work with the Truly Ergonomic Keyboard. The application's source code and usage for any other purpose is strictly forbidden.
- This "Layout Designer" only works on newest Browsers: Firefox and Chrome. If your browser does not allow you to drag a key from the layout above into the TrulyErgonomic layout, or does not allow you to save the file into your computer: you can upgrade your browser, use a different browser, or use a different computer.
- Press your keyboard's
F11key to show this "Layout Designer" in full-screen, making it easier to use – F11returns to normal size.
- Click on the top "Select Layout" to see and use more available conventional layouts and keys.
- Select your "TECK Model" in the TrulyErgonomic layout below. This only changes the keycaps being shown; does not load the default layout and does not make any changes to the current layout.
- If your keyboard exhibits double letters, select a higher "Debouncing" setting. The higher the number the less probability of double letters, but consider that if you select a higher setting some keystrokes might not register. You can also select a lower setting if you type fast and your keyboard does not exhibits double letters.
- Select which layer you want to configure amongst "Main", "Num", and "Fn", for each position of DIP switch #2 (ON - Primary layers or OFF - Alternate layers).
- Drag any key from the layout above into any key position of the TrulyErgonomic layout, or click any of the keys of the TrulyErgonomic layout and type a key name.
- Click on "Save file" to download the Layout/Firmware file into your computer.
- Follow steps to upgrade your keyboard's Firmware using the Layout/Firmware file from this "Layout Designer".
Click here to review diverse layouts already made or to start the "Layout Designer" with a Default layout for your particular model/language
|TECK non–synchronized Num Lock : This turns on or off the "Num" layer. Non–synchronized means that when you press this key, only the Embedded Numeric Keypad layer of the Truly Ergonomic Keyboard turns on or off, and no other Numeric Keypad turns on or off.
Default "Fn" layer functionality:
Lang4 Internet Browser Email Search My Computer Calculator Media Select Media Previous Track Media Play/Pause Media Next Track Volume Mute Volume Down Volume Up Media Eject
You can have up to 23 different Media Control (MC), Application Control (AC), or Application Launch (AL) keys at the same time, including the 12 keys already assigned in the default Fn layers. The same key in diverse positions and/or layers count as only one. If you add more keys, extra keys are stored in the layout but will behave as if unassigned.
You can assign additional HID usage codes from usage pages 07 or 0C, as defined by the HID Usage Tables. To do so, click on a key and enter either of the following:
- for usage page 07 (Keyboard/Keypad), the low byte of the usage code followed by the letter 'h'. Example: A5h
- for usage page 0C (Consumer), the full 20–bit usage code followed by the letter 'h'. Example: 0C0107h
Not all HID codes are currently recognized by all Operating Systems.
Layout Designer based on the configurator by Yuri Khan

Microsoft to spend over $500m to catch up to iPhone, AndroidMarketing costs for Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 launch will add up to more than half a billion dollars as it re-enters the smartphone market, a new report claims.
According to Kim-Mai Cutler, in a guest post on TechCrunch, Microsoft is prepared to make up for lost time in the smartphone market with an expensive marketing push.
Jonathan Goldberg, an analyst at Deutsche Bank, estimated that the Redmond, Wa., company will spend at least $400 million on marketing the Windows Phone 7 launch, which should come before the end of the year. In addition to marketing costs, Microsoft has already agreed to subsidize handset manufacturers' "non-recurring engineering" costs.
This is make-or-break for them. They need to do whatever it takes to stay in the game, said Goldberg.
Microsoft executives told Goldberg during a recent visit to company headquarters that the company, carriers, and manufacturing partners, would spend "billions" of dollars in the first year on marketing and development of Windows Phone 7. Another source estimated a $1 billion price tag for the launch, with half of it going to marketing.
$500 million is roughly the equivalent of Apple's entire advertising budget for its 2009 fiscal year. In its 2009 Form 10-K filing to the SEC, the Cupertino, Calif., company listed $501 million in advertising expenses. Microsoft's fiscal 2009 advertising budget was $1.4 billion.
According to the report, Microsoft, in order to attract third-party developers to its platform, is offering revenue guarantees and other financial support. The company will have an uphill battle against Apple and Google, which already have well-established ecosystems for third-party applications.
At Apple's annual developer conference in June, CEO Steve Jobs announced that over 5 billion apps had been downloaded from its App Store in just 2 years, earning over $1 billion in revenue for developers.
Microsoft remains undaunted. Greg Sullivan, senior product manager at Microsoft, says the company is taking a "long-term view" of the market, since "it's still in the early stages." Anand Iyer, also a senior product manager, asserts that there is strong interest in Windows Phone 7, noting that downloads of the company's development tools have exceeded 300,000.
In July, Microsoft pulled its KIN line of youth-oriented phones after just 48 days on the market. In an official statement, the company outlined its plan to "focus on [its] Windows Phone 7 launch." The KIN team was folded into the Windows Phone 7 team.
During a ReMIX Microsoft conference in France, the company referred to IDC data to estimate total sales of 30 million Windows Phone 7 devices by the end of 2011. In comparison, Jobs set a goal of 10 million iPhones sold in 2008, the first full calendar year of availability for the smartphone.

Rambus legal crusade blunted by paper shredder
Rambus has hit a major setback in its quest to wrest millions of dollars from Micron and Samsung in IP royalties. A judge has said its patents can't be enforced because it destroyed documents, that could affect the case, in an obstructive or misleading way. Rambus, which earns revenue by licensing its computer memory …
Is this an echo?
SCO ...sco
Are you implying this is a company so busy suing people it doesn't bother to invest in new innovations, therefore relying on expensive legal teams to chase ever diminishing returns...
Shurely not....
Honesty counts for something
They will "invest" in technology, but they will "fully fund" their legal efforts. At least the CEO isn't afraid to make priorities clear. You've heard the story about "I went to the fights last night, and a hockey game broke out." There must be a similar joke that involves the Rambus and SCO legal departments.
Die Rambus, Die!
Nuf said.
Rambus = Patent Troll
Why yes, Stu Reeves, Rambus is a company so busy suing people it doesn't bother to invest in new innovations (commit to hardware, heaven forbid?), therefore relying on expensive legal teams to chase ever diminishing returns.

It started when both my kids were still quite young. Lindsey was probably in middle school and Jerrod in about the 5th grade.
We made the sizable drives because the action the last half-hour of the day can be amazingly fast. It's also quite social since we can all sit close together and watch different directions.
I think Jerrod was 10 when he shot his first waterhole limit and Lindsey 13. She hasn't been in a number of y ears, though. Hank, our Lab, was not quite five-months-old when he made his first fetch on a hunt. I think he had more than 60 before that weekend was over.
This year Jerrod, Hank and I headed towards Kinsley to hunt with Tom Turner. His son, Tyler, joined us one day. The gunning was good. The cool front made it very comfortable for two and four-legged hunters.
As they have every year doves buzzed the small waterholes surrounded by miles of dry prairie like bees from a shaken hive Saturday and Sunday evenings. Limits of 15 per person were easily gotten both days. The 10-year-old dog did surprisingly well considering he'd been exercised little because of this summer's heat.
But that's gone now, and what follows will be dove sauteed with fresh veggies and some red wine or maybe some more wrapped in bacon and tossed on the grill.
We'll have more family traditions this year, though they're harder to arrange with two kids living in two different states. We're gathering for a special Thanksgiving and hopefully some time around Christmas, too.
They'll all be fun but I'll still be looking forward to Labor Day weekend 2012, too.

It's been a stressful time to be a Dallas Mavericks fan lately. Cheering for a team that is fighting for their playoff lives with two other teams breathing down their neck isn't exactly relaxing. But, at least on Tuesday night we had something good to celebrate when Dirk Nowitzki passed Oscar Robertson to move into the top 10 in all time scoring.
Now, one of the more fun debates to have is where Nowitzki ranks in terms of the greatest power forwards ever. He's definitely in the top five, but where exactly people have him differs. Here's how my list goes in order: Tim Duncan, Dirk, Kevin Garnett, Charles Barkley and Karl Malone.
I don't think it's much of a debate that Duncan is the best power forward ever. He's got the rings and the accolades to cement him in that spot. As far as Dirk being in second, I don't think that's a stretch at all.
Barkley and Malone were great players in their time. But the one thing that separates Dirk from them is the ring. Had Dirk not won the title in 2011, then this is a very different discussion. But the fact that Nowtizki was the only true superstar on the only team that has beaten the "Big Three" Miami Heat in an NBA Finals says a lot. Obviously, the only reason Barkley and Malone weren't able to get a ring during their time was because of a guy named Michael Jordan, but the fact Nowitzki has the title and has now passed both players on the scoring list puts Dirk ahead.
And then there's Kevin Garnett. Nowitzki passed Garnett in scoring earlier this season and there has been something of a rivalry between the two since Garnett's days in Minnesota. Both have won a league MVP. Both have won a NBA championship. Both have scored more than 20,000 points in their career.
But I'm not hesitating to put Dirk ahead of Garnett in terms of all time great power forwards.
The simple fact is that Dirk has been able to win an NBA championship by himself as the only superstar on a team. Yes, Tyson Chandler was a big difference maker. Yes, Jason Kidd, Jason Terry and Shawn Marion were all key cogs. But none were superstars. That team was truly built around Dirk Nowitzki.
The Minnesota Timberwolves were never able to build a championship team around Kevin Garnett. During the years that Garnett made the playoffs in Minnesota, he only got out of the first round once. One can argue that perhaps Garnett didn't have the right coach or maybe even the right teammates. But someone of Garnett's caliber should at least be able to get out of the first round and maybe make a Finals run.
It took Garnett being traded to the Celtics to team up with Paul Pierce and Ray Allen to win a ring. Garnett is a Hall-of-Famer, there's no doubting that. But as far as all time great power forwards go, I put Nowitzki just one step ahead of KG. And, after cracking the top-10 in all-time scoring, I think it's easy to put Nowitzki right behind Duncan in terms of the greatest power forwards ever.

New voting procedure designed to limit wait
Primary 2014
Election officials will launch a new, countywide voting procedure Tuesday they hope will reduce waiting times at the polls.
After a successful pilot test in Rockford during the general election in November, the board of elections decided to institute "Any Line, Any Time" at all polling locations in Mercer County.
"I think it will cut down on waiting time. I think that it will improve the accuracy of the provisional ballots that are cast and I think it's going to be easier for the voters," board of elections deputy director Laura Bruns said.
All polling sites in the county accommodate at least two voting precincts. Instead of hosting different sign-in stations for each, poll workers will direct voters to a single table to obtain their ballots.
"We're going to have poll workers on one main table," Bruns said. "When people walk in they'll be greeted at the door ... then they'll proceed up to this regular line."
For example, all voters residing in the townships of Dublin, Hopewell, Liberty and Blackcreek will get their ballots - either a card to insert into an electronic voting machine or a traditional paper ballot, depending on the voter's preference - from one table at the Rockford Community Building.
"I think the main thing to stress here is that you no longer need to know your precinct when you come in," board of elections director Deb Sneddon added. "When you come in, it's like a hotel check-in, you just go to the next available person."
Officials have linked electronic poll books so they contain information on voters in every precinct at the polling site.
"The key to this is that these electronic poll books that they look you up in, are all linked together so once you go to this station, you can't go vote and then (vote again)," Bruns said.
Precinct lines at polling locations previously could become unbalanced.
"You always had people waiting in line for St. Henry North, and meanwhile, the four workers of Granville East are sitting over there (at their table) with nothing to do - there's no way they could help," Bruns said.
There are 29,290 registered voters in Mercer County.
Tuesday's ballot includes statewide party races for the nomination of governor, attorney general, auditor, secretary of state, treasurer, supreme court, court of appeals and state central committee members, as well as U.S. senate and U.S. congressional seats.
State Issue I, a proposed constitutional amendment to fund public infrastructure capital improvements by permitting the issuance of general obligation bonds also is on the ballot.
Locally, Greg Homan and Jeff Buschor are vying for nomination in the Republican primary for the county commissioner seat currently held by John Bruns. No Democrats are running for the position.
Also to be decided is a five-year, 1.94-mill renewal levy for the Mercer County Developmental Disabilities agency for general operations of Cheryl Ann Programs, and a 1-mill property tax renewal levy that funds the Mercer County Home.
Residents also can cast votes for Mercer County central committee members for the Democratic party, as well as for several candidates running unopposed and issues specific to village or school districts.
As of Friday afternoon, 548 absentee ballots had been issued to residences, delivered to nursing homes or voted on in person at the board of elections office.
Early voting ended today, Sneddon said.
A handful of 17-year-olds who will turn 18 before the general election in November are eligible to nominate candidates but not vote on issues or Democratic committee members, according to Bruns.
"They have to vote on paper and then the board reviews those ballots," Bruns said.
The polls, manned by about 172 workers, will be open Tuesday from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Officials will begin tabulating absentee ballots at 7:30 p.m.
Polling locations:

Visvim Folk 2009 Spring/Summer FBT Lhamo
In what was foreshadowed earlier this season with a multitude of colorful Hockneys, the Visvim Folk FBT Lhamo gains a new dimension in an upcoming release. The soft luxurious and ultra breathable suede takes on both conservative and more liberal colortones in a nice balance. Within the six colors, black and two shades of brown are juxtaposed against orange, red and yellow. These are set to release at F.I.L. locations across Japan and Hong Kong.

Topics: Health Reform, States, Politics, Public Health, Medicaid
Mar 03, 2011
Politico: Medicaid Cost Makes Ohio's Budget Ill [T]he president's health care overhaul has made Ohio's budget situation worse. ... The law prohibits states from changing eligibility requirements, cutting reimbursements or reducing benefits, which would allow our state to live within its means. Obamacare expects us to provide additional coverage by spending recklessly. If Ohio tries to restrict Medicaid eligibility, a provision in Obamacare strips states of any federal financial support. ... Unless this law is repealed, Ohio will have an unfunded mandate likely to put the state further underwater, just as we have begun to revitalize our economy and emerge from our imperiled budget situation (Rep. Bob Latta, 3/2).
The Wall Street Journal: Obama's Health Waiver Gambit 'I am aware that I have not convinced everybody here to be a member of the Affordable Care Act fan club," President Obama told a group of Governors over the weekend, and he could have mentioned a majority of the public too. But he did promise to give states "the power to determine their own health care solutions." If only this were more than political maneuvering (3/3).
The Philadelphia Inquirer: Editorial: Bad For Their Health If Gov. Corbett plans to build his legacy by dismantling the state's social-safety net, then he's off to a good start by tossing thousands of working poor Pennsylvanians off the health-insurance rolls this week. That may pale in comparison to the expected cuts in state funding for schools and other social services yet to come with the governor's first budget proposal. Even so, the collapse Monday of the state's subsidized insurance program is an embarrassing failure for the new Republican administration (3/3).
Related KHN story: Pennsylvania Closing State Health Plan For Low-Income Adults (Gold, 2/23).
Kaiser Health News: Fixing America's Health Care Reimbursement System Many health care experts believe that half or more of all health care expenditures — the costs of bloated transactional processes as well as inappropriate procedures, service sites and prescription drug levels — provide no value. ... Though we continually have given physicians and the health care industry a pass on this issue, its impact can be understood as the difference between our national prosperity and decline. (Brian Klepper, 3/3).
The Sacramento Bee: Brown Must Confront Sentencing Issues Despite proposing deep cuts across state government, Gov. Jerry Brown plans no reduction to the state prison budget. … Then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed a law last September to grant medical parole to inmates who have a "significant and permanent condition, disease or syndrome" that makes them "physically or cognitively debilitated or incapacitated." The process is bogged down in drafting regulations. On Wednesday, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation announced it would move to expedite medical parole for the "most expensive, most compelling" cases (3/3).
The Washington Post: Va. Bill A Reminder That Abortion Rights Can't Defend Themselves When Virginia Democrats partied at their annual Jefferson Jackson Dinner in Richmond on Feb. 19, Senate Majority Richard L. Saslaw (Fairfax) crowed about the party's success in killing efforts by the Republican-controlled House of Delegates to push forward conservative legislation such as anti-abortion bills. ... Just five days later, however, Saslaw failed to live up to his own boast. ... Virginia health authorities will be empowered to impose regulations on clinics that do first-trimester abortions under a new law that in some ways is among the most onerous in the nation (Robert McCartney, 3/3).
Health Policy Solutions (a Colorado health news service): We Have Met The Enemy And (S)he Is Us The question that we can't avoid asking is: why are so many cuts aimed at women and children? Why are these programs considered expendable? Are women and children expendable? The answer is, evidently, yes. We still see the highest rates of poverty among children and in households headed by single women. ... Women also pay more for health insurance than do men. In many states, maternity care and birth control are not covered by small group and individual policies and of late we are seeing some reproductive health care services become unavailable at certain hospitals (Emilie C. Ailts, 3/2).
The Des Moines Register: The Des Moines Register: Court Ruling Is A Win For Public Health Last month the U.S. Supreme Court sent a message to American parents: If you think a vaccine harmed your child, don't turn to the local courthouse. In a 6-2 ruling, the court affirmed federal law that prevents vaccine makers from being sued in state courts and protects them from civil liability in "damages arising from a vaccine-related injury or death." If this seems unfair, it's not. If it seems like only a "win" for drugmakers, it's not. ... So the system created by Congress to protect vaccine makers from liability also helps ensure continuing research into new vaccines and prevents shortages. That ultimately saves lives (3/2).

my nails rock
Tumblr theme by ahhfred
Blue glitter tips. Here are some blue glittery tips. Kind of sort of gradient-esque.
Polish used: Zoya Twila
Gold glitter over grey. Here are some angled gold pows over grey.
Polish used: Zoya Jana, Mattese Elite Cream Dream
Bronze glittery tips. I was being lazy and did this over the weekend. It wasn't meant to be perfect - just to look as if the ends were dipped in glitter. Ooooh sparkles.
Sparkly purple open V. This is some sparkly empty Vs accented by some white. I had originally used some matte over this but then put topcoat over 1 nail - which of course took away the matte look - so I had to un-matte the others. Oh well. This purple is from that Zoya surprise I received and it is really pretty! Love the little sparkles.
Polish used: Zoya Nimue
Tri-color stripes with some glitter. Glitter makes everything more fun, right?
Polish used: Color Club Warhol & Almost Famous, H&M Light Purple, American Apparel Neon Orange, Wet n Wild Kaleidoscope
Smoky glitter over white stripes. This is some sheer black polish with large glitter chunks over some white stripes. Because it is so sheer, the polish comes out a nice smoky hue.
Polish used: NYX Frizzy Spots
Pink and purple dots with some glitter. Here are some pink and purple dots with a splash of gold over some sparkly glitter.
Polish used: American Apparel African Violet & L'Esprit, Zoya Juicy, NYC Kaleidoscope, Mattese Elite Cream Dream
Just a close up of glitter. I haven't been feeling too well the past few days so I haven't done anything with my nails. This is a picture I took last week but I couldn't get it to photograph the way I wanted. So, here is a close-up of the glitter action.
Polish used: OPI Sparkle-iscious
So.much.glitter! This is a sort of kind of not really glitter gradient with the sheer NYC Starry Silver Glitter, the gold-tinted NYX Prismatic Gold, and the super chunky Tony & Tina Evolution.
Sparkly stripes with glittery dots. Once these were done, I kept thinking of barcodes - sparkly barcodes. Maybe that will be next.
Polish used: NYX Prismatic Gold

Kansas Soybean Expo 2014 to share opportunities, vision for farmers
Soybean farmers and their industry partners will gather Jan. 8, 2014, in Topeka for the Kansas Soybean Expo. The Kansas Soybean Association organizes the annual event, with financial support from the Kansas Soybean Commission, to coincide with the Topeka Farm Show.
It is at the Capital Plaza Hotel's Maner Conference Center at the Kansas Expocentre. Registration and exhibits open at 8:30 a.m., with the program scheduled from 9 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. A reception will follow from 3:15 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
The opening session will feature a "Soybean Update" moderated by Gary Kilgore, a Kansas State University professor emeritus of agronomy. The presenters will be William Schapaugh, Ph.D., K-State professor of soybean breeding and genetics; David Mengel, Ph.D., K-State professor of soil fertility and nutrient management; and Xiuzhi Susan Sun, Ph.D., K-State distinguished professor of grain science and industry. Their respective topics will be soybean-variety research, use of different fertility rates and nutrients for soybean production, and new uses for soybeans.
Next, representatives from the World Initiative for Soy in Human Health, U.S. Soybean Export Council and Cargill will discuss sustainability and international opportunities for U.S. soy.
During the morning break, members of the KSA policy committee will be on hand to answer questions and take input about the association's positions for 2014. The current resolutions are available at http://KansasSoybeans.org/policy.
Bruce Vincent from Libby, Mont., will present the keynote address "With Vision, There Is Hope." As a Montana logger 20 years ago, activists targeted his business through legislation and vandalism. Vincent will tell the audience how important it is for people with a vested interest in agriculture to prevent activist interference in farming by heightening their involvement in the public-policy arena and industry membership organizations.
Duane Toews, the farm director for KFRM-AM 550 in Clay Center, will be the master of ceremonies at the luncheon, where Gov. Sam Brownback is the invited speaker. KSA and KSC will present awards and recognitions, including the DuPont Young Leader, the Conservation Legacy Award, the Kansas Soybean Yield and Quality Contests winners, and meritorious service awards.
KSA President Terry Reschke, Hiawatha, then will preside over the association's annual meeting, which will include the approval of policy resolutions and the board of directors elections.
The afternoon session will focus on planning for the future when Darin Newsom, DTN senior analyst, will present "2014 Soybeans: Last Man Standing?"
The complete schedule and registration form are available at http://KansasSoybeans.org/expo or by calling the Kansas Soybean office at 877-KS-SOYBEAN (877-577-6923). All soybean farmers are welcome to attend. The registration fees are $15 for KSA members ($20 with a spouse) and $20 for other guests, with a $5 discount for anyone who registers by Jan. 2, 2014.
The Kansas Soybean Association, headquartered in Topeka, is the voice and advocate for soybean farmers on local, state, national and international issues of importance. Founded in 1973, its advocacy efforts are made possible through the voluntary memberships of about 550 farmers and industry supporters. It also is the primary, administrative contractor to the Kansas Soybean Commission.
The Kansas Soybean Commission includes nine volunteer farmer-commissioners who are elected by their peers. They oversee investments of the legislated "soybean checkoff" assessment in research, consumer information, market development, industry relations and farmer outreach to improve the profit opportunities for all Kansas soybean farmers.

One Happy Customer
By Willy
from Winnipeg
I've been power walking outside since June and have become addicted I must say. With snow coming I knew I needed to purchase a Treadmill. I checked around and The Shopping Channel had the best price. It was delivered by two men. My husband followed the step by step directions and assembled it quite easily and in no time. Used it for the first time last night and I'm hooked. I love it. No need to sign up for membership or pay gas to drive to the Gym. Thank you Shopping Channel for offering an alternative for me and a great price.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Aweful customer service
By Pc
from Toronto
Bought the white glove service, only to find out they shipped the treadmill the wrong way, resulting in the shipper having to return the treadmill to the shopping channel. Now Instead of honouring the original purchase, shopping channel says I either have to reorder without the white glove service or cancel the order, because the assembly service (white glove sevice promotion) is no longer being offered. I needed this assembled for me. I am extremely dissapointed that the shopping channel would not honour the original order, given that it was their error!Buyer beware!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Don't expect the Assembly Service
By Barb
I ordered this product on Sept 6 by calling the order desk. I ordered the Premium Assembly Service listed on the product overview, and was told that the delivery company would come to my home, set it up and take all the packaging away. They charged me 129 dollars for this service. TSC order desk called it the "white glove service". On Sept 11th got a call from the delivery service that it was ready for delivery BUT they told me they would not setup the machine. I called TSC and customer service said that $129 was not the fee for the "white glove service" – it was 179.38. So I cancelled my first order and reordered paying 179.38 for shipping. TSC said they would refund all my fees (still waiting for this to happen) including shipping for the Sept 6th order. Today (Sept 17) I got a call from the delivery company. They said they would only deliver to my door. They would not carry it downstairs and would not set it up. I again called TSC and was told this "white glove service" was not available for this treadmill. They said they would refund my shipping fee of 179.38 (still waiting for this to happen). THIS IS HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE and I am not at all happy with TSC. DO NOT order this product or any product which claims that it will deliver and setup as this is not true. You will have to carry it into your home and set it up by yourself or get help as it is quite heavy.

from kitchener ontario
This may or may not be a good product but when I received and set up there seemed to something off... there are a sound coming from the motor which just didn't seem normal. Try to make adjustments but the noise was still there. Decided to contact customer service for this product and told I would be contacted by an independent to come out and fix the treadmill... this never happened.

Get the White Glove Service
By VRH
from RICHMOND, BC
I would recommend getting the white glove service. We did not! We called our neighbours sons to help get it up the stairs, it was difficult. Also took my daughter and I about 2-3 hours to put together. We found tightening the screws hard. Having said all that, everything works well and I am enjoying the treadmill!

5 Star..from shipping to product :)
By Sirena
from Consort AB
I just had my second child and I needed some help with loosing the baby weight. This product does it all. I seen it as the today's show stopper and had to get it. I paid for the one week shipping and it came exactly one week from the shipped date. The delivery man was so nice and I put it together in only one hour by my self. I use it 30minutes twice a day and I can already se the difference. I told my man if I had to go to the gym it would be $65 plus daycare every month. By far this is the cheaper rout and it's so much more convenient :) thank you Shopping Channel Sincerely, Sirena

Great Entry-level Treadmill!
By Shelly
from Ontario
I bought this treadmill at the showstopper price. It is considered an entry-level treadmill so I don't think it is worth the price it appears today since you can buy one with a lot more features for its current price. The treadmill did take longer than I expected (and what I was quoted) to arrive at my house, but it was easy for 2 people to put together within a hour. We discovered we had a broken part when we were putting it together and had to contact the manufacturer and a replacement part was sent to me very quickly. I love variety of the pre-set programs and this was the major selling feature for me since I find I need the challenge built within the programs to get the best workout possible. It is also nice to have the option to listen to your music through the speakers but you will probably find that you will still listen to your music through earbuds because the sound quality is better. You can change the cuishioning of the deck to soft or hard but I haven't needed to change from the manufacture setting of soft deck. Overall, I would recommend this treadmill to your average person looking to use this treadmill primarily for walking.
Worth every penny!
By CHRISTINE
from Sturgeon County
Ordered as a Showstopper, so price was great for a great product. My husband and I are both in our 60s and are using it everyday.
good product
By DDR
from Edmonton
Ordered this on the 1st paid the extra for the delivery, had to contact the shipping company as I had not heard from them. Contacted the TSC and was told they would look into it, never heard back from them. Did get a hold of the shipping company and they delivered it on the 23rd of Jan. Assembly was no problem, and so far the treadmill is working fine.

So far so good
By RM
from Rossland,B.C.
We ordered the treadmill Jan.01, shipped Jan.06 and received it Jan.15th. The delivery driver was cooperative and I helped to unload it into my carport. The very next day I proceeded to unpack it and was very impressed as to how much care was taken to crate it. I found assembly was very easy following instructions. Probably took about one hour and I had no issues, seeing the bolts had even had a thread lock applied to them was great. Now for the treadmill it works as expected, is quiet and although the speakers are not first rate they are just fine.

Simple Steps to Solid Scripture Study
- Wednesday, November 10, 2004
Letting the Holy Spirit be your teacher (1 John 2:27), search the Scripture He has authored, using cross references, comparative passages, concordances, indexes, and other helps. For passages that remain unclear, consult your pastor or godly men who have written on the issues involved.
Step 3 - Evaluating
You have been reading and asking the question, "What does the Bible say?" Then you have been interpreting, asking the question, "What does the Bible mean?" Now it's time to consult others to ensure that you have the proper interpretation. Remember, the Bible will never contradict itself.
Read Bible introductions, commentaries, and background books that will enrich your thinking. As you evaluate, be a true seeker. Be one who accepts the truth of God's Word even though it may cause you to change what you have always believed, or alter your life pattern.
Step 4 - Applying
Jesus made this promise to those who carry their personal Bible study through to this point: "If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them" (John 13:17).
Having read and interpreted the Bible, you should have a basic understanding of what the Bible says, and what it means by what it says. But studying the Bible does not stop there. The ultimate goal should be to let it speak to you and enable you to grow spiritually. That requires personal application.
You must let God's truth penetrate and change your life. Studying Scripture without allowing it to penetrate to the depths of your soul would be like preparing a banquet without eating it. The bottom-line question to ask is, "How do the divine truths and principles contained in any passage apply to me in terms of my attitude and actions?"
If there is a command to be obeyed, obey it. If there is a promise to be embraced, claim it. If there is a warning to be followed, heed it. This is the ultimate step: submit to Scripture and let it transform your life.
Step 5 - Correlating
This last stage connects the doctrine you have learned in a particular passage or book with divine truths and principles taught elsewhere in the Bible to form the big picture. Always keep in mind that the Bible is one book in sixty-six parts, so its truths and principles are taught over and over again in a variety of ways and circumstances. By correlating and cross-referencing, you will begin to build a sound doctrinal foundation on which to live.
Now, get to work! As you dig in to God's Word using those five simple steps, you'll be amazed at the rich treasure your study yields. My prayer is that the Lord will use this plan to revitalize your Bible study, increase your appetite for knowing and understanding His Word, and further conform you to the image of His beloved Son.
