Selenium is a robust set of tools that supports agile development of test automation for web-based applications across many platforms. It is an open source and lightweight automation tool that can be easily integrated into various projects, supporting multiple programming languages such the as .NET, Perl, Python, Ruby, and the Java™ programming language.
Testing an Ajax application with Selenium
We first act on the web page, then wait until the asynchronous call completes. After completion, verification can continue. At this point, the question of a suitable waiting time arises.
One choice is to simply pause for a fixed time in the test application, which may work in most cases. Under some circumstances, such as slow network throughput, the Ajax call is not completed after pausing for a specific time and will lead to the failure of the test cases. On the other hand, if the pause time is too long, it will make the test unacceptably slow.
Selenium has provided more-efficient ways to handle waiting. One possibility is to use the class
com.thoughtworks.selenium.Wait to wait for
an element or text to present or disappear from the page. The break
condition can be defined for the wait in the
until() function, or extend the
Wait class to implement. Listing 1 is the sample code to use
Wait class. It will stop waiting if the
condition is fulfilled, or return a timeout exception if it exceeds the
maximum waiting time.
Listing 1. Wait for the element or text present
Wait wait = new Wait() { public boolean until() { return selenium.isElementPresent(locator); // or selenium.isTextPresent(pattern); } }; wait.wait("", timeoutInMilliseconds);
choice is to use the
waitForCondition function
in Selenium, to which a JavaScript snippet will be passed as a parameter.
Once Selenium detects that the condition returns true, it will stop
waiting. You can wait for some element or text to be present or not.
JavaScript can be run in the application window get by the
Listing 2 is the sample code to check the state of the window. It only
works in Firefox.
Listing 2. Wait the state of the window to be ready
String script = "var my_window = selenium.browserbot.getCurrentWindow();" script += "var bool;"; script += "var readyState = (my_window.document.readyState);"; script += "if (readyState == 'complete'){"; script += "bool = 'true';"; script += "}"; script += "bool;"; selenium.waitForCondition(script, timeoutInMilliseconds);
How to support Dojo applications
Dojo is a commonly used JavaScript tool kit to construct dynamic web interfaces. A key point in using Selenium to test Dojo applications is recognizing Dojo widgets and recording their actions. Author-defined Dojo widgets are in the abstract level. When the page is running, it will convert Dojo widgets to basic HTML code. There are many HTML codes auto-generated by Dojo, thus the recognition of Dojo widgets may have some differences with traditional HTML widgets.
Actions performed on Dojo widgets, including text field, button, checkbox, and radio button, may behave the same as with HTML widgets. On the combo box, however, date selector and other additional widgets provided by Dojo may require specific handling.
Figure 1. A Dojo combo box
Use the Selenium IDE to record the selected action on the combo box provided in Figure 1. Click the down arrow and a drop-down list will appear. Select the third item Stack(SWG). The recorded scripts are provided in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Scripts recorded by Selenium IDE
Sometimes, only the second line of the scripts will be generated by the
IDE. In that case, add the action of clicking the arrow button. For the
above scripts, if the first line is replayed, it should generate the drop-down list. However, it performs nothing. Click does not actually
perform the click action for multiple Dojo widgets. Change the
click(locator) to
clickAt(locator, coordString), or
MouseDown(locator) and
Wait time should be added for
the drop-down list. As the scripts show in Figure 2, the click action to
the selected item will be performed right after clicking the down-arrow
button. It will probably fail because the drop-down list has not appeared.
Simply add a
pause command, or use the
waitFor command to wait for the item element to
appear and continue on the next command.
Modified scripts that will automate selection on Dojo combo box are shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3. IDE scripts to select in Dojo combo box after modification
Codes in RC are shown in Listing 3.
Listing 3. RC codes to automate selection on Dojo combo box
selenium.clickAt("//div[@id='widget_offeringType']/div/div",""); selenium.waitForCondition("selenium.isElementPresent(\"offeringType_popup2\")", "2000"); selenium.clickAt("offeringType_popup2","");
Figure 4. A date selector
For the example of date selector in Figure 4, the actions performed may not be recorded by the IDE. Write the RC codes as follows in Listing 4.
Listing 4. RC codes to automate selection
//click on the date field by id you defined; selenium.clickAt("dateBox",""); //wait for the drop down date box by id; selenium.waitForCondition("selenium.isElementPresent(\"widget_dateBox_dropdown\")", \ "2000"); //click previous year 2008; selenium.clickAt("//span[contains(@class,'dijitCalendarPreviousYear')]", ""); //click on the month increase; //previous month would contains 'dijitCalendarIncrease'. selenium.clickAt("//img[contains(@class,'dijitCalendarIncrease')]",""); //click on the date such as 28 of current month; If you do not specify //the td with the attribute of current month class, it will click \ on the //first 28 of previous month; selenium.click("//td[contains(@class,'dijitCalendarCurrentMonth')]/span[text()='28']");
the example shows, Dojo applications cannot be tested by simple IDE
recording. These scripts are probably not able to pass. There could be
some missing actions, or the actions do not really work. The scripts
should be adjusted to make them run smoothly in IDE and RC. For
complex Dojo widgets, a possible solution is to use the
runScript(String) function, as Selenium provides
good support for JavaScript. Listing 5 provides a JavaScript
statement to simulate combo box selection.
Listing 5. Run JavaScript statements to select on combo box
How to build Selenium test with Ant
tools, such as Ant, are convenient to build Selenium tests and run test
cases smoothly without starting up the Selenium server stand-alone. If the Selenium test is driven by TestNG, define the TestNG Ant
task as shown in Listing 6. In Listing 6,
classpath supposes to be the file path of the TestNG.jar
Listing 6. TestNG Ant task
<taskdef resource="testngtasks" classpath="testng.jar"/>
The main target is to start the server, run the tests, then stop the server. These tasks are implemented in sequence as defined in bulid.xml in Listing 7.
Listing 7. Ant task to start server, run test cases and stop server
<target name="run_test" description="start,run and stop" depends="dist"> <parallel> <antcall target="start-server" /> <sequential> <echo taskname="waitfor" message="Waitforproxy server launch" /> <waitfor maxwait="2" maxwaitunit="minute" checkevery="100"> <http url="http://localhost:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=testComplete" /> </waitfor> <antcall target="runTestNG" /> <antcall target="stop-server" /> </sequential> </parallel> </target>
is preferable to use the
waitfor task to test
whether the Selenium server has successfully started, rather than pausing
for a fixed time. If the URL
is available, it means that Selenium has launched successfully. In Listing
7, it waits up to two minutes and checks every 100 milliseconds for the
Selenium server on the local host to serve up the complete URL.
details for the
start-server task are defined
in Listing 8. Firefox profile template location and other arguments can be
specified in the tag
Listing 8. Ant task to start server in detail
<target name="start-server"> <java jar="lib/selenium-server.jar" fork="true"> <arg line="-firefoxProfileTemplate ${selenium}/profile/" /> </java> </target>
details of the
runTestNG task are defined in
Listing 9. The commonly used attributes for the
task include
outputDir and
xmlfileset. The attribute
outputDir is used to set the output report location. The
xmlfileset is used to include startup
XML files. Refer to the TestNG formal site for more
Listing 9. Ant task to run test cases
<target name="runTestNG"> <testng outputDir="${testng.report.dir}" sourcedir="${build}" classpathref="run.cp" haltOnfailure="true"> <xmlfileset dir="${build}" includes="testng.xml" /> </testng> </target>
of the
stop-server task are defined in Listing
Listing 10. Ant task to stop Selenium server
<target name="stop-server"> <get taskname="selenium-shutdown" src="http://localhost:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=shutDown" ignoreerrors="true" /> <echo taskname="selenium-shutdown" message=" Errors during shutdown are expected" /> </target>
The key tasks are listed above. Combine them to your build file to make well-integrated tests with Ant.
How to support testing HTTPS websites
As the Internet increasingly emphasizes information security, more web applications are using SSL authentication. Selenium IDE supports HTTPS by default, but Selenium RC does not. The solution varies in Internet Explorer and Firefox.
For IE, install a certificate in the SSL support folder
under the setup directory. Use
*iehta run mode
if the version in use is prior to Selenium-RC 1.0 beta 2, and
*iexplore run mode for Selenium-RC 1.0 beta 2 or
If a security warning appears when testing an HTTPS website as shown below, click View Certificate and install the certificate of the HTTPS website. If the warning continues to pop up, consider configuring in IE. Open Tool > Internet Options > Advanced, and uncheck Warn about invalid site certificates and Check for publisher's certificate revocation under the security category.
Figure 5. Security warning when testing HTTPS websites
Creating a new Firefox profile
For Firefox, follow the steps below to create a customized profile, then restart the server:
- Close down any running Firefox instances.
- Start Firefox with the profile manager:
firefox -ProfileManager.
- Create a new profile. When prompted, choose a directory for the profile. Place it inside the project folder.
- Select the profile and run Firefox.
- Navigate to the HTTPS URL with the self-signed certificate you will test against. Accept the certificate when prompted. This will create an exception in the profile.
- Close the browser.
- Go to the Firefox profile directory.
- Delete everything in the directory except for the
By default, Selenium will create a new profile when launching the
instance of Firefox. When you start the server with the parameter
-firefoxProfileTemplate /path/to/profile/dir,
Selenium will use a partial profile (with certificate exceptions) as a
basis for minting the new profile. This will provide the certificate
exceptions without additional clutter from using an entire profile. Pay
attention to launching Firefox with the
*firefox mode in Selenium RC 1.0 Beta 2 or later, and
*chrome mode in versions prior to Selenium RC 1.0
Beta 2.
For the run modes,
*chrome or
*iehta were the experimental modes that
supported HTTPS and the handling of security pop-ups in earlier versions
of Selenium RC. They were stabilized to
*firefox and
*iexplore run modes
since Selenium-RC 1.0 beta 2. Be careful to use the run mode according to
the Selenium version in use.
How to effectively recognize web elements without ID property
Using a meaningful ID or name is an efficient and convenient way to locate elements. It can also improve the readability of test cases. However, for each element to have a meaningful and unique ID, especially for the dynamic element. Selenium has provided multiple strategies to recognize the elements, such as Xpath, DOM, and CSS.
Following is a sample using three strategies to locate an element in a dynamic table provided in Figure 6. The HTML codes are in Listing 11.
Figure 6. Dynamic table sample
Listing 11. HTML code for the first table column

Test 1

 edit
 	 …….
Xpath is a simple way to find elements with no specific ID or name.
- If an attribute other than ID or name is known, use
@attribute=valueto locate the elements directly.
- If only certain parts of attribute value are known, use
contains(attribute, value)to locate the elements.
- If the elements have no specified attributes, search for the nearest parent elements that have specified attributes with Firebug, then use Xpath to begin from this element to locate the desired element.
Table 1. Xpath expression to locate elements
|Locate element
|Xpath expression
|First column of row n
|The image of row n
|The edit link of 'Test 1'
Table 1 shows the Xpath expressions of locating elements. With the help of Firebug, Xpath can locate elements and duplicated elements. Selenium IDE will adopt Xpath when the elements have no IDs and names. While Xpath assists in consistency with recorded scripts, it has a high dependence on the structure of the web page. This makes test cases unreadable and increases maintenance. Additionally, it might be too slow to run test cases that have multiple, complicated Xpath — expressions in Internet Explorer 7 and Internet Explorer 8. In such instances, change Xpath to DOM, which is another efficient locating strategy.
DOM is short for Document Object Model. Selenium allows you to traverse the HTML DOM with JavaScript. Java's flexibility allows for multiple statements in DOM expressions, separated by semicolons, and define functions in statements.
Table 2. DOM expression to locate elements
|Locate element
|DOM expression
|First column of row n
|The image of row n
|The edit link of 'Test 1'
dom=function test(){ var array=document.getElementsByTagName('a'); var element;for(var i=0; i<array.length; i++) {if(array[i].attributes.getNamedItem("href").\ value.indexOf('test2')!=-1){element=array[i];break;}}return element}; test()
CSS locator is used to select elements with CSS selectors. CSS locator is efficiently utilized when HTML codes have good style. Sample expressions are shown in Table 3.
Table 3. CSS expression to locate elements
|Locate element
|CSS expression
|First column of row n
|The image of row n
css=#test_table tr:nth-child(n) > td:nth-child(2) > table td:nth-child(1) > div > img
|The edit link of 'Test 1'
In general, choose familiar locator expressions and be consistent in script structure. If there are multiple expressions to execute, use the most effective way to locate the elements in web pages.
How to handle a pop-up window
In general, actions are performed in
the main window launched by Selenium. If you want to perform actions in a
new window generated by the
function, change the focus to the new window. After performing actions in
a pop-up window, focus back to the main window. The procedure to
handle a pop-up window is defined in Listing 12.
Listing 12. Sample code to handle a pop-up window
//wait for the popup window with timeout; selenium.waitForPopUp(windowname, timeout); //select the pop up window selenium.selectWindow(popupWindowIdentifier); //perform action on popup window and close the window; .... //return to the main window use 'null' selenium.selectWindow(null);
windowname is the second parameter to
invoke the
window.open function. The
popupwindowIdentifier mentioned above is a window
identifier, which can be window ID, window name,
title=the title of the window, or
var=javascript variable. If the attribute of the pop-up window
is unknown, but is actually defined, use
getAllWindowNames(), or
getAttributeFromAllWindows()functions to retrieve the
attributes of the pop-up window.
In the latest version of Selenium
RC 1.0.1, Selenium has added methods like
selectPopUp(String) and
deselectPopUp(), the function of which has been provided by
selectWindow(String) in earlier versions.
Listing 13. Pop-up functions to handle a pop-up window
//wait for the popup window with timeout; selenium.waitForPopUp("", timeout); //same as selenium.selectWindow selenium.selectPopUp(""); //perform action on popup window and close the window; .... //same as selenium.selectWindow(null); selenium.deselectPopUp();
13 shows the simplest way to handle a pop-up window. You can leave the
first parameter empty in the
waitForPopUp and
selectPopUp functions. If multiple windows
pop up simultaneously, specify the window attribute.
How to handle upload/download file window
Figure 7. Security information window
The solution to skip the security information window in Figure 7 is to open Tools > Internet Options > Custom Level. Then enable the item Display mixed content.
Configuring Internet Explorer to escape the accidental window will reduce or eliminate unnecessary handling when running test cases. If Firefox is configured, however, save it as a new profile and start the server with the customized profile. The reason for that is mentioned in the section regarding testing HTTPS websites.
For the upload/download windows, it is preferable to deal with them rather than skip them. To avoid the limitations of Selenium, one suggestion is to use the Java robot AutoIt to handle file upload and download problems. AutoIt is designed to automate Window GUI operations. It can recognize most Window GUI, provide many APIs, and can easily convert to .exe files, which can run directly or be invoked in Java code. Listing 14 illustrates the scripts to handle file upload. The steps of scripts:
- Determine the upload window title according to the browser type.
- Activate the upload window.
- Put the file path to the edit box.
- Submit it.
Listing 14. AutoIt scripts to handle upload
;first make sure the number of arguments passed into the scripts is more than 1 If $CmdLine[0]<2 Then Exit EndIf handleUpload($CmdLine[1],$CmdLine[2]) ;define a function to handle upload Func handleupload($browser, $uploadfile) Dim $title ;declare a variable ;specify the upload window title according to the browser If $browser="IE" Then ; stands for IE; $title="Select file" Else ; stands for Firefox $title="File upload" EndIf if WinWait($title,"",4) Then ;wait for window with title attribute for 4 seconds; WinActivate($title) ;active the window; ControlSetText($title,"","Edit1",$uploadfile) ;put the file path into the textfield ControlClick($title,"","Button2") ;click the OK or Save button Else Return False EndIf EndFunc
In the Java code, define a function to execute the .exe file written by AutoIt and invoke the function after clicking browse.
Listing 15. Execute .exe file written by AutoIt
public void handleUpload(String browser, String filepath) { String execute_file = "D:\\scripts\\upload.exe"; String cmd = "\"" + execute_file + "\"" + " " + "\"" + browser + "\"" + " " + "\"" + filepath + "\""; //with arguments try { Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd); p.waitFor(); //wait for the upload.exe to complete } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }
Listing 16 is the AutoIt script to handle a download window in Internet Explorer. Download scripts vary in Internet Explorer and Firefox.
Listing 16. AutoIt scripts to handle download in Internet Explorer
If $CmdLine[0]<1 Then Exit EndIf handleDownload($CmdLine[1]) Func handleDownload($SaveAsFileName) Dim $download_title="File Download" If WinWait($download_title,"",4) Then WinActivate($download_title) Sleep (1000) ControlClick($download_title,"","Button2","") Dim $save_title="Save As" WinWaitActive($save_title,"",4) ControlSetText($save_title,"","Edit1", $saveAsFileName) Sleep(1000) if FileExists ($SaveAsFileName) Then FileDelete($SaveAsFileName) EndIf ControlClick($save_title, "","Button2","") Return TestFileExists($SaveAsFileName) Else Return False EndIf EndFunc
AutoIt scripts are easy to write, but are dependent on the browser type and version as window title and window control class vary in different browsers and editions.
How to verify alert/confirmation/prompt information
For the alert dialog generated by
window.alert(), use
selenium.getAlert() to retrieve the message of a JavaScript
alert generated during the previous action. The function will fail if
there is no alert. Getting an alert has the same effect as manually
clicking OK.
For the confirmation dialog generated by
window.confirmation(), use
selenium.getConfirmation() to retrieve the message of a
JavaScript confirmation dialog generated during the previous action. By
default, the function will return true, having the same effect as manually
clicking OK. This can be changed by a prior execution of the
chooseCancelOnNextConfirmation command.
For the prompt dialog generated by
window.prompt(), use
selenium.getPromt() to retrieve the message of a JavaScript
question prompt dialog generated during the previous action. Successful
handling of the prompt requires prior execution of the
answerOnNextPrompt command.
JavaScript alerts will not pop up as visible dialogs in Selenium. Failure to handle these pop-up dialogs will cause exceptions stating that there are unexpected alerts. This will fail test cases.

Wisconsin -- Telemarketing calls can be annoying and intrusive and that's why in 2003 lawmakers passed a state No Call Law.
"A consumer that wants to limit the number of calls they get puts their phone number on a list and then that list goes to telemarketers and the telemarketers know not to call that number," explained Administrator of the Division of Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Sandy Chalmers."
Wisconsin is one of the first states to have a No Call Law in place. Chalmers said they set the trend for other states.
"Consumers complain more frequently about getting telemarketing calls than anything else they complain to us about," she said.
There are things you should do in order to limit the number of telemarketing calls you receive. You have to re-register with DATCP every two years.
There are some exceptions to the No Call Law; people who can solicit you over the phone.
DATCP said you can stop most of these solicitations by just asking the agencies or non-profits not to call any more.

Coroner: Nurse in Royal Hoax Found Hanging
More information is being learned about the nurse in London who died after being subjected to a radio station hoax call about Kate Middleton last week.
FOX News Radio's Simon Owen reports from London:
Audio clip:
Police here in London say nurse Jacintha Saldanha was found by a colleague and a security guard hanging in her room near the hospital where a pregnant Kate Middleton had been receiving treatment. The nurse also had marks on her wrists, and had left three notes in the room.
Three days earlier, Saldanha had passed a hoax call from two Australian radio hosts through to the Duchess of Cambridge's ward. It then made headlines around the world.
Police are interviewing friends and relatives to try and establish what led to the nurse's death, which is formally being treated here as an apparent suicide.
In London, Simon Owen, FOX News Radio.

Summoned by the Asgard SG-1, lead by General Landry (Beau Bridges) aboard the Odyssey, learn the Asgard have only a short time left to live. Their final attempt to solve their physiological degeneration resulted in each of them developing a rapidly progressing disease leaving them only weeks to live. Fearing their knowledge might fall into the wrong hands they plan to end their lives after handing over their entire knowledge base, technology and history to SG-1. But before all the final advancements can be installed on the Odyssey the Ori drop out of hyperspace and engage the ship. As the Odyssey retreats pursued by one of the Ori ships the Asgard destroy their planet taking the other two Ori ships with them. The Odyssey with shields nearly failing is forced to test their new Asgard weapons and is barely able to destroy the Ori ship in time. The Ori able to constantly track the Odyssey before it has time to repair damage send ship after ship trying to destroy it. The ability to track the Odyssey seems caused by the Asgard technology integrated into its core systems. The team is caught in a conundrum that the very tools that seemed to promise their victory over the Ori might actually spell their defeat. Beaming the rest of the crew to a safe planet, SG-1 tries to find a way disengage the Asgard technology but are drawn into a fire fight before they have the chance to finish. With shield failed and a final blast just off its hull Lt. Col. Carter (Amanda Tapping) is able to trap the ship inside a time dilation field, slowing the blast to appear it's nearly frozen moving only inches a year. With a seemingly inexhaustible amount of time Carter sets at solving their dilemma or else the team will be forced to live out the rest of their days in the dilation field aboard the Odyssey. watch
With extinction imminent the Asgard hand over all their knowledge and technology to SG-1, but not before the Ori launch an attack trying to intercede. watch

Less than a year after Stargate finished its 10-season run, Christopher Judge — who plays the muscle-bound alien Teal'c — is returning to the franchise on Stargate Atlantis (tonight at 10 pm/ET, Sci Fi). Judge talked to us about keeping up with a kid half his age, getting "back in the sandbox" and his new project.
TV Guide: So how did your visit to Stargate Atlantis come about?Christopher Judge: It's something that the fans have talked about for a long time — probably since the Ronon character [played by Jason Momoa] first appeared. When they approached me about it, I said, "Sure." Then they said, "You'll have a few fight scenes with Ronon, because the fans would love that." And I said, "Well, you know Jason is almost 20 years younger than Chris." I had seen his previous fight work and I did

Fans of Stargate SG-1 will get the long-awaited series' finale on March 11, 2008, when MGM Home Entertainment releases Stargate: The Ark of Truth. "We wanted to end the show without really ending it," says the movie's writer/director/producer Robert C. Cooper. "Even if the series is no longer on Sci Fi [Channel], we want it to continue, so we decided to make a movie that wraps up a lot of the big loose ends." The DVD (suggested retail price is $26.98), which winds up the war between Stargate and the world-gobbling Ori, includes commentary by Christopher Judge (Teal'c) and Cooper, as well as a featurette. A second movie is due out on DVD later in '08. Ileane Rudolph

Well, its all come down to this: 10 seasons. Over 200 episodes. Adventure. Laughter. Tears. And as this is the last episode of our journey together, I will make this my last TV Guide blog entry.Thanks be to all of you who have grown with us over the years. It has been a true pleasure, and one Im sure I will not see the likes of again. The years have gone by so fast
so fast. So much has changed, in my life, and in the lives of those around me. And Im sure of yours too.I was reminded as recently as yesterday how much can happen in 10 years. I shared a conversation on the plane with Katee Sackoff (of Battlestar Galactica fame — for those living under boulders) who enlightened me that she used to watch the early seasons of Stargate with her father

Wow. I have not gotten into so much trouble for not completing my homework assignment since grade 9. You have no idea how many people have been riding me like Zorro for not keeping up with this blog. Thanks for caring. "I'mmmmmm back!" Well, not to make any excuses, but we have been shooting the second SG-1 movie, Continuum, for the last three weeks and things have been a bit hectic. Not to mention the fact that the first shooting week overlapped with my wife's last week of filming her movie on Vancouver Island, so I was working during the day and being both mother and father at night. This wouldn't have been that much of a chore if my daughter Mia hadn't gotten a bad cold in Victoria, and happened to keep both her and I up through the entire first night before filming. Zero sleep is not the best way to kick off the work week. "Tough darts, Batman." Anywho, the filming for Continuum has been great: frozen sets, Air Force F-15s and Richard Dean Anderson's return all crammed inside tw...

- Written by sdsichero on Tuesday, September 18 2012 and posted in News with Benefits

After playing just four minutes in the Rockets loss to the 76'ers on Wednesday night, reports of Omer Asik's trade request surfaced just before the Rockets win against the Knicks on Thursday.
Jonathan Feigen (Houston Chronicle) was the first to report Asik's trade request. According to sources, the Rockets have no imminent deal in place. Asik refused to answer questions before and after the game though his agent, Andy Miller, answered to the media.
I would say the situation is very frustrating right now, and we're trying to work through it. For Omer, the objective has always been to continue to develop and grow as a player. That's why we came to Houston in the first place. If that objective can't be met, if we can't get the right platform to grow and contribute as a player, it's certainly frustrating.
Coach McHale had some interesting words following the Rockets 109-106 win against the Knicks.
I talked to Omer today, and I don't know about any trade rumor, but he told me today he wasn't feeling good and he didn't know if he could play. That's why I went with Greg (Smith). I think the way they play and spread guys last night with Spencer Hawes and tonight with (the Knicks' Andrea) Bargnani and Carmelo (Anthony), it's just a better matchup for us," McHale said. "Last night, when they backed up, they went smaller, put Lavoy Allen in, another guy who stayed out, so we went smaller, too. I liked a lot of stuff he and Dwight did together. They were big. They protected the rim. It's going to be a lot of matchups, a lot how things work. He's going to have to get out there and play. Will he start against some bigger teams? Possibly.
Brian Windhorst (ESPN.com) said the Rockets continue to deny Asik's trade request.
In the Rockets win last night, McHale chose to go with other options over Asik. Greg Smith was put into the game before Asik, though left within a minute with a knee injury. When Smith went down, McHale elected to go back to Terrence Jones. Both the Knicks and the 76'ers play a lot of small ball so many expected Asik's minutes to go down these two games. However, it seemed like McHale had ample opportunity to put Asik in the game but chose to go a different route.
Throughout the night, TNT would show Asik often looking emotionless sitting on the bench. When Asik logged a "DNP-CD" it broke his NBA-leading 239 game-consecutive games streak. Asik has 2 years and $20 million remaining on his contract and is likely on his way out within the next few months.

His clutch perfomance against the Yankees in the 2004 American League Championship Series will keep David Ortiz in the hearts of Red Sox faithful forever. In Games Four and Five at Fenway Park, Ortiz belted walk-off, game-winning hits in extra-innings. In Game Seven at Yankee Stadium, he belted a first inning two-run homer to get the ball rolling for a Red Sox rout. Overall, through 2005, "Big Papi" had delivered 28 RBI in 29 post-season games for Boston. Following the 2002 campaign, the Twins, who rarely allowed Ortiz to face everyday pitching, released the first baseman. Immediately, Boston brass realized that Ortiz's swing was made for bandbox Fenway. He was signed as a free agent, and in his first three years in a Red Sox uniform he delivered 31, 41, and 47 homers, with escalating RBI totals as well: 101, 139, and 148. In 2005, he nearly became the first full-time DH to win the Most Valuable Player Award, but narrowly lost the honor to Alex Rodriguez.
Seattle Mariners and Minnesota Twins (1992-2002)
Ortiz graduated from Estudia Espallat High School in the Dominican Republic and in 1992 he was signed by the Seattle Mariners who listed him as "David Arias". He played for the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, a Mariners farm team, until 1996, when he was traded to the Minnesota Twins as the player to be named later in an earlier trade for Dave Hollins. When he arrived in Minnesota, he informed the team that he preferred to be listed as "David Ortiz."
He made his Twins debut in September 1997. For a few years, he was moved back and forth between the Twins and their minor league affiliate in Connecticut, the New Britain Rock Cats. In 2002, Ortiz hit .272 for Minnesota, with 20 home runs and 75 RBIs. The Twins advanced to the American League Championship Series that year, where they lost to the Anaheim Angels. Despite showing flashes of talent, Ortiz's time with the Twins will be remembered as a series of injuries and inconsistency both in the field and at the plate. Ortiz suffered wrist injuries in both 1998 and 2001. He continued to experience knee problems in early 2002 that plagued him throughout the season, despite hitting 32 doubles, 20 homers and 75 RBIs in 125 games. He was released by the Twins after the season. In six seasons with the Twins, Ortiz hit 58 homers and 238 RBI.
Boston Red Sox
On January 22, 2003, Ortiz signed a free agent contract with the Boston Red Sox. He played sparingly in the first two months of the season, primarily pinch hitting and starting occasionally as a DH. On June 1, manager Grady Little benched slumping Jeremy Giambi and inserted Ortiz in the lineup as the full time DH. In July, Ortiz hit 8 HRS and in August he had 11 more. He finished the season batting .288 with 31 HRS and 101 RBI. He finished 5th in the AL MVP voting. In the postseason he struggled in the ALDS against the Oakland A's until Game 4 when he hit a 2 run double in the bottom of the 8th inning off of closer Keith Foulke to give the Red Sox the lead. In the ALCS against the New York Yankees, Ortiz had 2 HRS and 6 RBI as Boston lost in 7 games.
In 2004, Ortiz played a major role in leading the Red Sox to their first World Series championship in 86 years. This was Ortiz's second year with the Red Sox and his first year as their full-time designated hitter. During the season, Ortiz was voted onto the All-Star team for the first time in his career, as he batted .301 with 41 home runs and 139 RBI. In the playoffs, Ortiz hit .409 with 5 home runs and 23 RBI. He had multiple game-winning hits to help Boston advance to and ultimately win the World Series. Ortiz was also suspended for 5 games (later reduced to 3 games due to an appeal) after being ejected following an incident on July 16 in a game against the Angels in which he threw several bats onto the field that came close to hitting umpires Bill Hohn and Mark Carlson. He hit a walk-off home run off of Jarrod Washburn to win the American League Division Series against the Angels. He then hit a walk-off home run against the New York Yankees in Game 4 of the ALCS and a walk-off single in Game 5 during the American League Championship Series. His post-season heroics earned him MVP honors for the ALCS, the first time a DH had ever been named MVP. Additionally, he finished fourth in AL MVP voting.
Ortiz hit 47 home runs and had 148 RBI while batting .300. He led the American League in RBI and finished 2nd in home runs. He finished 2nd in the Most Valuable Player award voting while leading the Red Sox to their 3rd consecutive playoff appearance.
In 2006, Ortiz hit 54 home runs (setting a new Red Sox record) and had 137 RBI, while batting .287 with an OPS of 1.049. He led the American League in both HR and RBI, winning the HR crown by 10 over the 2nd place finisher Jermaine Dye.
On September 20, Ortiz tied Jimmie Foxx's single season Red Sox home run record of 50 set in 1938; in the 6th inning against Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Boof Bonser.
On September 27, Ortiz broke Foxx's single season Red Sox home run record by hitting his 51st home run off his former teammate, Johan Santana of the Minnesota Twins. The home run came on a 1–0 pitch in the first inning and it was his 44th home run of the season as a designated hitter, breaking his own American League single-season record.
Health scare in 2006
Ortiz said he began feeling ill between games of a day-night doubleheader on August 18, 2006, against New York. Between games, he had gone home and tried to sleep but could not. Ortiz was reportedly driven to the hospital by a team assistant. An irregular heartbeat was the cause for the stress according to his doctors. Ortiz would not originally talk about his condition, but opened up to the media on August 25, 2006, reportedly saying "I'm a healthy son of a [gun]."
On August 28, 2006, Ortiz had recurring symptoms from his irregular heartbeat and was a last minute scratch in the Red Sox game at Oakland. Manager Terry Francona and General Manager Theo Epstein agreed that Ortiz fly back to Boston where he was reevaluated and cleared to play again in early September.
In 2007, Ortiz once again was a major force as he helped lead the Red Sox to their seventh World Series title. Despite playing the entire season with a torn meniscus in his right knee as well as nagging injuries to his shoulder and quadriceps, he finished the year hitting .332 with 35 home runs and 117 RBI. In addition, he hit 52 doubles, led the American League in extra base hits and had an OPS of 1.066. In the postseason Ortiz batted .370 with 3 home runs and 10 RBI.
2008 was a frustrating season for Ortiz. After starting slowly he suffered a wrist injury which caused him to miss several weeks. He played in only 109 games and finished the season hitting .264 with just 23 home runs and 89 RBI, his lowest totals since joining the Red Sox. However, his ratio of homering every 18.1 at-bats still led the team. In his first six seasons with Boston, Ortiz has hit 231 home runs as a Red Sox, with the most homers against the Rays (34), and the Yankees (25).
Ortiz struggled in the beginning of the 2009 season, hitting only .206 with no home runs and 30 strikeouts in his first 34 games. On May 22, Ortiz hit his first home run of the season off Brett Cecil of the Toronto Blue Jays, ending his career-high 178 homerless at-bat streak. In June, Ortiz broke out of his slump by hitting 8 home runs with 22 RBIS. On July 9, Ortiz hit his 300th career home run against Luke Hochevar of the Kansas City Royals at Fenway Park. Ortiz hit 9 home runs in July and August. He hit 28 RBI's in July.
On September 17, Ortiz hit his 270th career home run as a DH off of Jose Arredondo of the Los Angeles Angels breaking the all time record held by Frank Thomas.
Ortiz finished the season with 28 home runs and 99 RBI.
Ortiz hit .270 with 32 home runs and 102 RBI in 2010. He also won the Home Run Derby.
On April 2, 2011, Ortiz set the record for RBI by a designated hitter with 1,004 passing Edgar Martinez.
On May 21, 2011, Ortiz became only the fifth player to hit 300 home runs as a member of the Red Sox, joining Ted Williams, Carl Yastrzemski, Jim Rice, and Dwight Evans.
Performance Enhancing Drug Positive Test Result In 2003
On July 30, 2009, The New York Times reported that Ortiz and then-teammate Manny Ramirez were among a group of roughly 100 major league players to test positive for performance-enhancing drugs during 2003 survey testing. Five months before the Times allegations surfaced, Ortiz argued that players who tested positive for steroids should be suspended for an entire season. Before the Red Sox's game that afternoon, Ortiz declined to comment on the report, saying, "I'm not talking about that anymore."Afterwards, he confirmed he had tested positive and promised to speak with the media once he "[got] to the bottom of" the matter.
Ten days later, Ortiz held a press conference before a game at Yankee Stadium and denied ever buying or using steroids but suggested the positive test might have been due to his use of supplements and vitamins at the time. When asked which supplements he had been taking, Ortiz said he did not know. Ortiz was accompanied at the press conference by the general counsel of the players union, Michael Weiner. Because the list of players who tested positive was seized as part of a government investigation and is currently under court-ordered seal pending the outcome of litigation, Weiner said the players union was unable to provide Ortiz with any details about his test result, including what substance he tested positive for.

Astronomy in The Hobbit
- Friday, December 07, 2012
A hole appeared suddenly about three feet from the ground. [Just barely in the nick of time, Thorin was able to fit the key into the hole and open the door.]
The gleam went out, the sun sank, the moon was gone, and evening sprang into the sky.
The reader can see from these instances that the key events of the story of The Hobbit turn closely upon astronomical appearances in the sky. A greater understanding of astronomy can enhance our appreciation of Tolkien's wonderful story. There is also quite a bit of astronomy in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, but that's another story . . .

Happy 100th Birthday Miss Hampton! 2 comments
I saw a little appreciation ad inside the front page of today's State to the effect that Mrs. Ann Hampton, the first princial of Satchel Ford Elementary School turned 100 years old today.
Mrs. (Or "Miss" as we called all our teachers then) Hampton was principal when I started first grade in 1967 and I think all the students there had an enormous amount of respect and affection for her. We never doubted that if we strayed, she would set us straight, but also never doubted that she had our best interests at heart. As I started second grade, she guided the school through the potentially difficult task of integrating both the student body and faculty, and as I recall it, things went very smoothly. We all looked forward to her daily morning messages over the intercom, and the programs she led in the cafetorium.
Today, the school is led by one of her onetime charges, and the ballfield behind the school bears her name.
Happy Birthday Miss Hampton!

(Eat) Boogie's Grill, 509 Childs Street / 2124 Gervais Street / 1717 Zion Avenue: 1982 5 comments
Eat Boogie's Grill
That was the memorable exhortation that adorned the west wall of this vanished Gervais Street "soul food" restaurant when I was in middle and high school.
In fact, the place was so well known from that slogan, that I thought I would be able to find out more about it than I did. Here is the meager information I was able to come up with from old phonebooks:
Boogie's Grill apparently started in 1966, first showing up in the January 1967 Southern Bell phonebook at 509 Childs Street, a place I had never heard of, but which is in a neighboorhood west of Bluff Road.
Sometime in 1972 they moved to the iconic 2124 Gervais Street location, listing there in the December 1972 phonebook.
By 1977, they were back in the same Bluff Road area, listing at 1717 Zion Avenue in the January 1978 book.
As far as I can tell, they never bought a yellow pages ad, and in fact, dropped out of the yellow pages entirely after leaving Gervais Street.
2124 is on the block of Gervais betwen Harden and Pine Streets. There is currently no building at that address -- I think it must have been at one of the curb cuts between Holman's Barber Shop and the next building up (which looks as though I should probably do a closing on it). This surprised me a little bit, as I had been sure, before looking it up, that it was further down Gervais towards Millwood.
Surely someone out there has a picture of Boogie's and the west wall sign?
And to drift the subject a bit, how about that mural of the USS Enterprise blasting phasers down at a planet that adorned the west wall of a nearby building on the other side of Gervais Street?
Brookgreen Gardens Nights of 1000 Candles, Brokgreen Gardens: 3 December 2011 1 comment
Well, it seems to me I got better pictures last year, but I had a good time as usual at Brookgreen Gardens Nights Of 1000 Candles last Saturday. The weather was nice -- I didn't have to zip my jacket or put on gloves, and the lights were as spectacular as usual.
If you will be in the vicinity of Murrells Inlet on 9, 10, 16, 17 or 18 December this year, you should definitely stop by and check it out!
Kimbrell's Furniture, 1626 Main Street: 1 October 2011 14 comments
The end of Kimbrell's on Main Street was hardly a surprise. Their sign says they had been there 49 years (or almost my entire lifetime), but the character of Main Street has changed so much over the years that even blocks where there are signs of life (Kimbrell's was on the same block as the new Mast General Store) don't make sense for heavy retail like furniture. A modern furniture store needs lots of display space, as well as an easy way to get trucks in and out, and Main Street doesn't really have either.
There are a number of other Kimbrell's locations around town, and the signs indicate that operations from the Main Street store have been consolidated in Piggly Wiggly location on Marshall Street.
I hope that whatever happens to the old Main Street store, someone saves the old and classic Kimbrell's sign, though I realize that would be confusing in some cases, it seems to have worked well for the Kress building.
Cayce School / Lexington District Two Learning Center, Lexington Avenue Cayce: 1990s(?) 12 comments
I don't really know anything about Cayce School. I'm guessing that given the name, it was the school in Cayce at one time. The (Guignard?) brick architecture could easily go back to the 1940s I suppose. The pictures don't really make it clear, but as this aerial view from google maps shows, the school is really just one building with several different wings:
Of course it's a building that takes up a block of its own, being bounded by 3rd Avenue, Lexington Avenue (on which it fronts), Poplar Street and 8th Street.
At some point it appears that it stopped being a "school" as such and was taken over by Lexington District Two as a "Learning Center". (I have to say that the picture with the sign indicating such would make a good funny email to forward around Mississippi education circles..).
The building has obviously been out of use for a good while, and I think only the fact that it is in the middle of a residential area has kept it from being vandalized and tagged to a fare-thee-well. Certainly it is decrepit, which can be seen in the google view (which can be zoomed) as well as my pictures. Signs around the school indicate that the lot is to become luxury townhomes in a gated community, so I suppose the building will be demolished at some point, though with the current real-estate market, I doubt the developers will be in a big hurry.

Sheraton Hotel & Conference Center / Radisson Hotel Columbia & Conference Center, 2100 Bush River Road: 2000s/June 2011 10 comments
When the The Sheraton on Bush River opened, it was a big deal, and for many years it was certainly an impressive landmark designating the edge of town as you came in from Georgia on I-20. (Now of course the metro area sprawls out past the Lexington exits). Of course since I actually lived in Columbia, I never found a reason to stay at the hotel, and even to visit the restaurant would have been a long drive from Forest Acres, but I always imagined it as a "swanky" place. Thinking about it as an adult, I'm not sure I really understand the concept. It's been my experience in going to conferences that conference hotels are normally built in a downtown, or at least fairly dense suburban area such that there are restaurants and nightclubs for the attendees to go to in the evenings, especially those who took taxis from the airport and want something within walking distance. That pretty much describes exactly the opposite of this spot.. Columbia as a conference destination is a pretty hard sell anyway, but this isn't exactly The Vista (which granted didn't exist as such in the 70s, but there certainly were spots with nightlife..).
Anyway, The Sheraton operated as such until, I believe, the early 2000s. Certainly it still did in 1996 when they would have bought the ad for the February 1997 phonebook pictured here. After that, the hotel reflagged and was operated as a Radisson as shown in this year's (February 2011) phonebook until June. The new flagging is for DoubleTree by Hilton, a brand that I can't really place on the hotel ladder. I'm guessing they don't have a Dance Factory.
(Hat tip to commenter Tom)
UPDATE 11 July 2011 -- Originally I led with this drawing, which I believed was the Sheraton on Bush River, but it appears instead to be another ex-Sheraton, on Assembly Street. I have edited the text claiming that, and moved the picture down here for those who already saw it and commented on it:
Downtowner Motor Inn / The Governor's House / Rodeway Inn, 1301 Main Street: 2011 13 comments
As reported by The State this venerable hotel at the corner of Main & Lady Streets will be converted into a upscale condo called The Palms with 54 "resort-style" units. They will also have a view of what is apparently the only pool on Main Street.
Given that the article talks about the developer struggling to find financing for the project for several years, and the fact that the Rodeway Inn is listed in the Feb 2011 phonebook, I can only guess that the developer owned the property and continued to run it as a hotel until things came together. I admit to being surprised how long it lasted as a mid-to-lower-mid market motel in an area that if it gets anyone (after all who in the general population wants to visit Columbia and stay on Main Street?) would get high-roller business and government connected types.
(Hat tip to commenter Tom)
UPDATE 26 May 2012: Here's a State article on the opening of The Palms.

Hi there
Have you had one done this way?
According to this article on MSNBC:
"A tubal ligation is considered a fail-safe method of permanent contraception - or at least we used to think so. But recent studies have shown that of all women who have tubal ligations (done either at the time of C-section, immediately after a vaginal delivery or at another time through a laparoscopic procedure), 2 percent will get pregnant within 10 years."
Although it seems a fairly permanent way to ensure you will not become pregnant again, there are still risks.
I hope this answers your question.

My Hearts in the World – Three
Three Hearts – Three
Maybe the harmony of two sounds can be explained by simple physical laws. But the harmony of two souls is rather out of laws – it creates its own laws… it's a feast of creation. Can we find a reasoning mind in music? And how can we tell it? All mediocre composers created using their mind – and all genial composers added something more than mere mathematics and calculation. In Mozart's works even rocks and trees talk, and listening to such music a human mind can stop talking and perceive it in silence. The top where the polyphonic thoughts of harmony directed to the abyss are crossing and merging into the whole is the Adagio of Bach's famous Brandenburg Concerto. The thought is developing in the fourth circle in two symmetric cadences. I feel a stubborn struggle there, a struggle for the victory of harmony that makes two melodies sound not controversially but in accordance. Harmony wins polyphony.
Bach and Vienna classics didn't create theories using just deduction: their works seem to be natural as nature itself, and their harmony is true. Maybe the harmony of all the sixteen overtones played with the pedal is like the sound of ringing Spheres of Pythagoras. The Spheres of Stars, the Sun and the Moon, which correlated to each other as fourths, fifths and eights. The fourths, fifths and eights that were the basis of four-string tuning of Orpheus' lyre.

My Hearts in the World – 2
Three Hearts – Two
If I try to make scientific conclusions, I feel confusion because I see the principles of another level.. another world maybe. My appraisal always deals with feelings and intuition. God is felt by heart, not by reason. An empathic penetration belongs to appraising feeling, and scientific analysis belongs to reasoning mind. But feelings are easy to mislead – as easy as reasoning mind. So I train my feelings and my mind, in order not to be misled. The idea of Two Hearts in any single person is true – I really feel them in me. But I would add another one – I think every person really has three hearts. One of them takes all it needs from life; one gives all it can to life, and the deepest Third Heart, the true heart of every person, is hidden in the very profundity. The third heart is the real center of all person's life. The Third Heart is not easy to find: it opens with love. If it opens, it makes us feel the deep meaning of our life.

In the first round of the 2014 MLB Draft, the Oakland Athletics selected third baseman Matt Chapman.
Despite his strong throwing arm, apparently clocked throwing a 98 mph out of the bullpen, rumors are spreading that he may be moved to the mound. Scouting director Eric Kubota has put these rumors to rest, saying, "Never. We have no intention of doing that."
Chapman also views himself as a third baseman, even declaring himself the best in college baseball.
"I consider myself strictly an infielder," said Chapman. "Obviously third base is where I've been labeled, but I can play second base and shortstop, so wherever I'm needed is where I'll play. I know I can hit at the next level, and once I tap into that power, I don't see the need for me to ever pitch. I think my glove and defense is definitely a tool, and I'm going to find ways to help the team win with my offense. Pitching is something I have in my pocket, but my goal is to hit and play the infield every single day."
In the second round, the A's chose Daniel Gossett, a right hander who is expected to fill the void of starting pitching depth in the minors.
"We like a lot about him," Kubota said about Gossett. "He's a proven college performer. He's got a fastball that's from 92 to 94. He throws strikes. He's got the makings of an out-pitch breaking ball and a very good changeup. He's a very athletic kid."

'Balika Vadhu' completes 1,500 episodes
Popular TV show "Balika Vadhu", featuring Siddarth Shukla, Toral Rasputra and Shashank Vyas, completed a milestone run of 1,500 episodes.
The show, which went on air in July 2008, completed 1,500 episodes Thursday.
"It feels great to be a part of show which has always been a favourite among the viewers from the first day, and personally for me it's double celebration since I have completed 500 episodes with 'Balika Vadhu'," Siddarth, who plays the role of Shivraj Shekhar, said in a statement.
"I really hope that the show completes many more episodes and continues to garner love and support like always," he added.
"Balika Vadhu" followed the story of a child bride, Anandi, which was then essayed by Avika Gor, who was married to Jagdish Singh. It showcased the hardships of a child bride and then went on to take a leap of five years after which Pratyusha Banerjee portrayed the character.
The show took a second leap of three years during which Jagdish, played by Shashank Vyas, had become a doctor and even Anandi had finished her studies. The leap followed Jagdish divorcing Anandi.
The story after that is of Anandi's re-marriage to Shivraj Shekhar, played by Siddharth. After the marriage, Toral Rasputra was introduced as the new Anandi and the actress says the show has changed her life.
"It's really a proud moment for me to be part of a show which has not only changed my life, but is also striving at bringing about a change in the society," Toral said.
"I would really like to congratulate the entire team of 'Balika Vadhu' on completing 1,500 episodes and here's wishing that it completes 1,500 more episodes," she added.

Simplifying Radical Expressions - Problem 4 549 views
If you're trying to simplify a radical expression that has both integers and variables, you''ll want to simplify each piece separately. Re-write the integer as a product of two integers, one of which is a perfect square. Reduce from there. For the variables, break the exponent into groups of two (like x-squared's) because each root of x-squared will become regular x outside the root. Do this process for each variable. Your final result will be the product of all of the numbers and variables outside the radicals, times the product of all of the numbers and variables that were left inside the radical.

In this powerful and engaging new drama from Imagine Television, the producers of 24, Tim Roth stars as Dr. Cal Lightman, a deception expert whose uncanny ability to read facial expressions and body language makes him a virtual human polygraph. Joined by psychologist Dr. Gillian Foster, Lightman tackles compelling cases of sabotage, scandal and murder, always uncovering the one thing that matters most, the truth.
DR. CAL LIGHTMAN (Tim Roth, "The Incredible Hulk," "Reservoir Dogs") can detect the truth by analyzing a person's face, body, voice and speech. When someone shrugs his shoulder, rotates his hand or raises his lower lip, Lightman knows he's lying. By analyzing facial expressions, he can read feelings - from hidden resentment to sexual attraction to jealousy. But as Lightman well knows, his scientific ability is both a blessing and a curse in his personal life, where family and friends deceive each other as readily as criminals and strangers do. Lightman is the world's leading deception expert, a scientist who studies facial expressions and involuntary body language to discover not only if you are lying but why.
LIE TO ME is a compelling drama series inspired by the scientific discoveries of Dr. Paul Ekman, a real-life specialist who can read clues embedded in the human face, body and voice to expose both the truth and lies in criminal investigations.
Lightman heads a team of experts at The Lightman Group who assist federal law enforcement, government agencies and local police with their most difficult cases. DR. GILLIAN FOSTER (Kelli Williams, "The Practice") is a gifted psychologist and Lightman's professional partner who brings balance to the partnership by looking at the bigger picture while Lightman focuses on the details. He needs her guidance and insight into human behavior, whether he knows it or not. ELI LOKER (Brendan Hines, TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES) is Lightman's lead researcher, who is so uncomfortable with the human tendency to lie that he's decided to practice what he calls "radical honesty." He says everything on his mind at all times and often pays the price. RIA TORRES (Monica Raymund, "Law and Order: SVU") is the newest member of the agency, and one of the few "naturals" in the field of deception detection. She has a raw, untrained ability to read people that makes her a force to be reckoned with.
When you work with Cal Lightman, don't bother even trying to lie.
