The list grows We were as surprised as anyone that just 180 Waterbury eighth-graders had applied for 225 precious slots in the city's new vocational high school as of the Jan. 11 deadline — and just as gratified to learn a few days later that students, parents and teachers had met the challenge. The Waterbury Career Academy on Birch Street will provide training for careers in manufacturing, computers, allied health and human services that students will be able to pursue right out of high school. Those whose interests change will leave high school with a degree that qualifies them for college admission. It appears the seeming lack of interest stemmed from poor communication, as the applicant list reached 300 by Jan. 18. This new school has potential to be a tremendous asset to young people in Waterbury as a launching pad for lucrative, rewarding careers.

Video surfaces, rally set for Saturday
January 3, 2013
STEUBENVILLE — A video some say is tied to the upcoming rape trial of two city high school student-athletes went viral Wednesday, just as a planned rally about the trial scheduled for noon Saturday......
This video is despicable and disgusting, our hearts go out to the young girl and her family.
We call on the school board to suspend Coach Saccoccia for his behavior. The fact that he has refused to take any real disciplinary steps towards the football players that either witnessed or in some way abetted the alleged rape is disturbing, and his treatment of the New York Times journalist who spoke to him about the case is frightening. His actions are indicative of someone who cares more about their win-loss record than about the young people they are supposed to be improving.
We also urge the school board to examine the actions of Superintendent Michael McVey and Principal Shawn Crosier. We are disappointed that they left all disciplinary decisions up to Coach Saccoccia, and the fact that they failed to follow up with any of the students in attendance at the party where the alleged rape occurred is distressing.

This sad case has all the tell tale signs of an attempted cover-up, and our hearts ache for the victim in this case who has been subjected to undue scrutiny and blame. We hope that the added attention on Steubenville High School will result in justice for the victim, repercussions for the alleged rapists, and accountability for Steubenville officials.

I live on the west coast, and am following this story closely as is the rest of the US - smalltown administrators cannot hide and coverup the truth with such a shocking event - find the perps, take them to trial, and let justice determine their fate, not some coach concerned about his reputation.

Great comments. We now call for you to provide some evidence of the cover-up that is so obvious. Our hearts also ache for the vict. im and cry for justice. Thankfully we live in a country where we have court systems and are not thrown in jail or removed from our jobs based on rumors and comments. Please, as you make these calls enlighten us to your investigative findings of fact on this supposed cover up.

The newly released Book of Mages: The Dark Times is an excellent game, 100 times better than its predecessor (Book of Mages: The Chaotic Period). However, the game still has much room for improvement. I hope the author will eventually make a third installment, and in this thread you can post the things you would like to see in Book of Mages 3.
No spamming, flaming, and trolling in this thread, please. I know that the game is released not long ago, and I'm not immediately demanding a new sequel. I just want to point out a few things that could make the game even better.
To start this off, I'll post some of my own suggestions.
First, I'll point out some problems I had with Book of Mages: The Dark Times.
Fix the grammar mistakes. Though the grammar mistakes in Book of Mages 2 were not as frequent as the first one, they still exist. The game itself is good, but the grammar mistakes look like an ugly scar on an otherwise perfect face.
Better plot and characterization. The game is good, but story-wise the plot is very poorly done IMO. The game made no attempts to give distinct personalities to its characters. And there were plot holes, too: if you befriend a character and make a good relationship with him, he does not even recognize you when you next see him; the Black Robe mage Hawklight was a spy sent by the White Robes, but in the final battle he still fought on the Black side; Treefire, leader of Dark Wood, was manipulated by the Black Robes via poison, and he drank the antidote and told me that he no longer wished to be controlled, but in the final battle he still fought on the Black side. It would be nice to have a good story to match the game.
More unique battles. After you've progressed far into the game, and established a set strategy for your mage, the battles become a bit monotonous. The same strategy works on almost all opponents, and you hardly ever have to think to beat a certain enemy. In the new game, I hope that the battles can be a bit more unique, requiring different strategies to beat each new enemy.
Second, I'll post some things I'd like to see in Book of Mages 3.
Bring back the clan icons. In Book of Mages 1, the six clans all had their unique icons (e.g. Ice Land was a pair of white spears, while Chaos Desert was three red circles). It would be nice to have those icons back. I have suggestions for some new icons:
- Chaos Desert: Three yellow fireballs.
- Burning Hill: A volcano about to erupt.
- Dark Wood: A black tree burning with blood red flames.
- Ice Land: Six ice shards arranged in a snowflake pattern.
- Great Sea: A vortex of sea water.
- Poison Water: A green skull (can't think of anything better).
More item types. I hope that in the new game, you can equip items like in a classical RPG. You should be able to equip a Robe, a Weapon, an Orb, and two pieces of Jewelry. Maybe you can have equipment shops, and obtain certain special items from quests.
New battle mechanics. We should try to make the battles more unique and less monotonous. I don't have much on my mind right now, but I do have one suggestion: Melee Attack. Mages aren't necessarily squishy wimps; they can attack enemies physically with their weapons. Melee attack does not consume mana, and its damage is equal to the Power of your equipped Weapon multiplied by your Basic Damage.- Melee Attack VS Attack Bolts or Defense Bolts: You take full damage from enemy bolts, including defense bolts. Enemy takes full damage from your attack.
- Melee Attack VS Melee Attack or Melee Defense: The combatant with lower Melee Power takes damage.
- Melee Defense VS Attack Bolts: Subtract your Melee Power from your total damage taken. No, this cannot heal you.
Melee Attack and Defense can be combined with magic. For example, you can use magic to boost your Melee Power, or you can summon bolts when you use Melee Attack for extra damage.
Gender variance. In Book of Mages 2, all characters are either genderless or male. To make the game more realistic, I think it should have both male and female characters. You should be able to change the gender of your own character, and there should be male and female versions of the Robe you wear.
Possibility to learn magic from multiple clans. It would certainly be cool if you're able to learn magic from more than one clan. You can specialize in one clan, or learn a little bit from all the clans. I've already thought of a new background story driven by this, and I'll post that later.
I was bored last night, so I thought of a new plot that could go along with Book of Mages 3. The background focuses on the story of Frostburn, an exceptionally talent young mage that was exiled from his clans for learning the magic of other clans.
Year 221, the Black Robes were defeated and disbanded by the White Robes. Shiverhorror of Ice Land was elected as the new Great Mage. To prevent another war from happening, the Great Mage formed a non-clan organization called the Order of Arcanum, dedicated to maintaining the peace among clans.
Year 223, Frostburn of Ice Land was sent to the Young Mage contest, representing his clan. He made friends with Shatterflame, the young mage from Chaos Desert. Shatterflame showed Frostburn some of his Fire magic, and Frostburn miraculously found that he could learn Fire magic with ease. The two young mages did not know that learning magic from clans other than their own was forbidden, and Shatterflame continued to teach Frostburn until Frostburn completely mastered Chaos Desert magic.
In the Contest, Frostburn easily defeated his final opponent by using Ice Land and Chaos Desert magic together. However, he was seen by his Clan Master and Great Mage, Shiverhorror. Frostburn was branded as a cheater, and he was exiled from his clan.
Year 224, Frostburn wandered aimlessly in Dark Alleys and the Wilderness, slowly driven to madness by anger, hate, sadness, and despair. He hated Shiverhorror for exiling him, and he swore to kill the Great Mage and take his title.
Frostburn traveled to other clans, seeking powerful rogue mages who would illegally teach him their clan magic. Soon, he mastered the magic of all six clans, and became nigh invincible. Frostburn even found two ancient arcane tomes, written by the two original mages who first learned how to control Fire and Water. With the two tomes, and magic gained from all six clans, Frostburn was able to combine Fire and Water to create a third element, Lightning, that controlled the power of nature itself.
With his newfound power, Frostburn began to have delusions of grandeur. He started calling himself the Awakened One, and believed himself to be destined to rule the world as the Great Mage. Frostburn began to recruit powerful rogue mages, creating an organization called the Cult of Ataxia, with the sole purpose of overthrowing the Great Mage.
Year 240, the game begins. In the past 16 years, Frostburn was able to amass an army of fanatics who believed him to be the new messiah of mages, because he could use both Fire and Water. Shiverhorror, the Great Mage, had grown old and not as powerful as before. A violent revolution was at hand, and the world of mages was about to be changed forever.
You play the role of a talented young mage, who also has the gift of mastering both Fire and Water. When the game starts, you do not have to choose one of the six clans. Rather, you can travel to different clans and learn different magic. You must be careful, though. If you decide to learn magic from more than one clan, you must keep your secret; if you are found out, you'll be exiled from your clan just like Frostburn. You can join the Cult of Ataxia and follow their quest for world domination, or you can join the Order of Arcanum and thwart Frostburn's sinister scheme. Or you can simply stay neutral, and watch the world as it changes before your very eyes.
That's it for now. If you have ideas that can make the next Book of Mages game better, please post them here.

Cream of Tomato Soup
This soup is thick and rich and creamy and perfect for a soup and sandwich lunch on a cold winter's day. It does take a little time to make, but the flavour and the texture that comes from reducing all the ingredients down is well worth the wait.
- 2 cups chopped cherry tomatoes (or plum tomatoes)
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 sweet onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 stems of fresh thyme
- 1/2 cup diced carrot
- 1/4 cup red lentils
- 4 cups vegetable stock
- 1 28 oz can diced tomatoes
- 1 can light coconut milk
- salt and pepper to taste
1. Make a tomato paste: Place chopped cherry tomatoes in a small saucepan. Bring to bubbling over medium heat and cook, uncovered, for 10-12 mins, until thickened and tomatoes have broken down. Mash with a spoon as they cook.
2. Use a spoon to push the tomato mixture through a fine sieve until just the skins and seeds are left behind. It will yield about 3/4 cup.
3. While tomatoes are cooking, sauté onions with a large pinch of salt over medium heat in a large pot for 5-7 mins, until softened. Add garlic, thyme, carrot, and lentils and sauté for 2 mins more.
4. Add stock, canned tomatoes (juice and all), and the cherry tomato paste. Bring to bubbling over high heat, then reduce heat to medium and cook uncovered for about 40 mins, or until liquid has reduced by a third and veggies are barely covered. REMOVE THYME STEMS.
5. Blend with an immersion blender, or in batches in a blender, until very smooth. Return to heat and add coconut milk. Mix well. Heat through, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve.

It is good to be able to access new recipes on your site...you were missed.
Both soup recipes this year are the kind of rib-stickers that I enjoy this time of year. Thanks for taking the time to post. Now I'm going to take the time to make the Cream of Tomato soup. Weather here in Toronto is snowy and miserable; this soup along with a grilled Daiya will brighten the day. I have all the ingredients on hand so it was meant to be.

I've never cooked with cherry tomatoes, I always thought that they were better eaten fresh and raw. I may experiment with making tomato paste with just regular tomatoes though. I'm glad to see you posting still =) I was volunteering at the Toronto Vegetarian Association and I mentioned that you were posting again a bunch of people got excited.
Sounds like a great, flavourful and creamy soup. I'll have to give your version a try =)

I love this soup! I use a trick from some of your other soup recipes and put a bit of crushed red pepper in this to add a little spice. Very tasty!

Washington (CNN) -- As officials warn of more Secret Service resignations as soon as Friday stemming from a prostitute scandal in Colombia, one of the former agents allegedly involved joked on Facebook that he checked out former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin while on assignment during the 2008 campaign.
David Chaney and Greg Stokes are the two Secret Service supervisors no longer with the agency in the wake of the incident immediately preceding President Barack Obama's trip to Colombia for the Summit of the Americas, a source familiar with the investigation told CNN National Security Contributor Fran Townsend on Thursday.
In a photo posted on his public Facebook page in January 2009, Chaney is seen standing behind Palin, wearing dark glasses and what appears be a wedding ring. Under the photo, Chaney posted a comment that said, "I was really checking her out, if you know what I mean?" That comment drew a strong response from Palin Thursday night.
"This agent who was kind of ridiculous there in posting pictures and comments about checking someone out," Palin said on Fox News. "Check this out, bodyguard. You're fired! And I hope his wife sends him to the doghouse."
Chaney and Stokes are among 11 total Secret Service employees who are under investigation because of the scandal. More Secret Service employees could leave the agency Friday, said House Homeland Security Chairman Rep. Peter King, R-New York.
Attorney Lawrence Berger told CNN that he is representing Chaney and Stokes, but declined further comment, including why he is representing the two men. Berger is general counsel for the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association, a union that includes the Secret Service, among other agencies.
Authorities outside Chaney's home in Ashburn, Virginia, said that Chaney had relayed that he did not want to speak to reporters outside.
Chaney, a son of a Secret Service agent, has been employed with the U.S. Secret Service since 1987, according to his posting on Reunion.com. That message notes that he is married, has an adopted son and his assignments include a stint protecting former Vice President Dick Cheney.
Stokes supervised the canine training unit at the Secret Service's James J. Rowley Training Center outside Washington, according to PetLife Radio and a career development posting on the University of Maryland's website.
The agency has said that one of those who left the agency is a supervisory employee who is being allowed to retire. Another employee resigned, the agency said. A third agent -- also a supervisory employee -- is being pushed out, with the agency proposing his removal. A U.S. official said on condition of not being identified that this agent plans to fight his ouster. It was not immediately clear whether this person was Chaney or Stokes.
The other eight members allegedly involved in the scandal are on administrative leave and have had their security clearances suspended, according to the Secret Service. Ten military personnel are also being investigated for their possible participation.
They were all part of the "jump team" that flies in on military transport planes with the presidential limousine and other vehicles to be used in the president's motorcade, Townsend said.
They arrived the morning of the incident, raising questions about whether the activity was planned.
All the employees are accused of bringing prostitutes to Cartagena's Hotel El Caribe ahead of last week's visit by Obama, who was there to attend the Pan-American summit.
According to sources, the alleged prostitutes -- the youngest of whom were in their early 20s -- had all signed in at the hotel, where the Secret Service members apparently stayed, flashing their local ID cards.
One of these women allegedly was later involved in a dispute about how much she was to be paid for the night, which brought the entire incident to light and sparked controversy in the United States and Colombia.
Despite concerns that contact with Colombian nationals could have led to security breaches regarding President Barack Obama's activities in the South American nation, King said, "from everything we know, nothing was compromised."
Former Colombian President Alvaro Uribe told CNN on Thursday that he rejects "the idea that Cartagena is a destination for tourists seeking prostitution or illicit drugs." He said the incident is due entirely to "a lack of ethics (on the part of) the Secret Service of the United States."
Members of the U.S. Congress offered similarly biting remarks.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California called the allegations "disgusting," while Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid described the agents' alleged actions as "either really stupid or a total lack of common sense."
At least five investigations have, or will soon, be launched as a result.
In addition to the Secret Service employees, five members of America's elite Army Special Forces, or Green Berets, plus two people from the Navy, two from the Marines and one from the Air Force are being questioned, a U.S. official said.
The Green Berets' failure to make curfew the night of the incident involving the Secret Service agents led the military to start its own investigation, a U.S. official told CNN. Officials said they are based at Eglin Air Force Base, in Florida's Panhandle, and belong to the 7th Special Forces Group, which operates mostly in Central and South America.
All the military personnel are being investigated for heavy drinking and use of prostitutes while in Colombia as part of the support team for Obama's visit, the official said.
They are not likely to redeploy until the matter is resolved, other military officials said, though no formal order bars their deployment.
The military investigation could end with no action, administrative action like a letter of reprimand or a recommendation to proceed with criminal charges, officials said.
While soliciting prostitution is in most cases legal for adults in Colombia, it is considered a breach of the Secret Service's conduct code, government sources said. Military law also bars service members from patronizing prostitutes, engaging in conduct unbecoming an officer or, for enlisted personnel, conduct "prejudicial to good order and discipline."
CNN's Brian Todd, Bob Kovach, John King, Barbara Starr, Dana Bash, Deirdre Walsh, Rafael Romo, Jessica Yellin and Tom Cohen contributed to this report.

A day out at Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden

Set on the slopes of Table Mountain and Devil's Peak (the other end of Table Mountain, that is – the side that gets the most rain, is lusciously green during the rainy season, and which is also home to the University of Cape Town's main campus), Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden was sheltered from the cold and overcast weather that the City Bowl experienced today. As a result, it was a beautiful day to visit the garden, which forms part of the Cape Floral Kingdom (one of eight South African World Heritage Sites).
Dappled sunlight broke through the massive camphor trees on Camphor Avenue as flocks of guinea fowl – mature and juvenile – ambled across the path. Groups of children entertained themselves by rolling around on the grass, while relaxed parents plonked down beside them. Couples picnicked on the sprawling lawns under the shadow of the mountain, while pensioners and tourists strolled along the pathways and lingered to read the informative signs that describe the roughly 22 000 plants that colour the garden.
The Useful Plant Garden has a number of very interesting specimens. From plants for tummy trouble or to quench your thirst, to remedies for bites and creepy crawlies, and plants that are used to make dye (even though they are all green to begin with), you can learn a lot by doing a bit of reading while taking in the fresh air and serenity.
If you're looking for something indoors, there is currently an art exhibition on at Kirstenbosch's Sanlam Hall. The artworks on show are in a variety of mediums and depict familiar and beautiful South African scenes: images of Cape Town, landscapes, people and animals in modern, classic, abstract and highly realistic styles.
A healthy dose of exercise masquerading as fun… Photo courtesy flowcomm
Particularly beautiful were the prints by Bowen Boshier, a reclusive Capetonian artist whose pencil drawings depict African wilderness scenes. His creations are stark but riveting grey-and-white pieces, in exquisite detail.
All artworks – originals and reproductions – are for sale.
After taking in the natural and cultural heritage that Kirstenbosch has to offer, some visitors gathered outdoors, basking in the sun at the Botanical Café and Silvertree Deli and Restaurant until dusk.

Don't purposely play the game slow - just matches on normal/key-highlights.
Anyone find thier games go this slow? I do wish they'd go quicker as I want to get into a career game which would take an age but I just can't seem to quicken things up!

I've played a little over that and I'm in December.
I'm taking about 6 hours to do a season at the moment.
How many leagues do you have loaded up? The more leagues, the slower the game takes to process results
oh im at about a week to play a season tbh
To each his own...
If you are comfortable with the pace of your play, then you are fine.
There's no right nor wrong way to play this game.
If you spend a lot of time waiting, you might want to consider reducing the number of leagues and/or upgrading your computer.
I like dept in my games and I usually take a lot of time playing the game. Both because I load up a lot of players and leagues as processing delays don't bother me and because I tend to do a lot of other things on the side when I play. I usually only play one save each version so I'm not too bothered with the speed.
I am still only 19 games into the season. It can take me a month, 2 months or even longer to play a season. That said, I am a casual player compared to a lot in these forums.
I don't think loading times are particularly slow at all. It's the matches and reading news items which take most time
I take about the same as the OP to play a season and I only watch the matches that really interest me, I go on holiday for the day for run-of-the-mill games.
Slow???? It takes me AT LEAST a week in gametime to do a season - usually much more.
Normally take me at least 5-6 days to complete the season..
I am usually a pretty slow player. It usually takes me atleast an hour into a new save to move 1 day forward because I like to sort out my staff, squad & do training, shortlists etc.
am getting to the end of the 2nd season with about 7 days of play
i used to need about half a day in 2011 to get through 1 season
Glad I'm not the only one who seems to take their time playing FM - my only concern is that it's hard to find the time to commit to it! Ultimately I think this is what will eventually stop me playing the game.
In FM11, it took me about ten hours. But I'd got pretty good at FM11, so a lot of it was rote decision-making.
Are you all serious ???????????? it took 2 months to make a season, I play 2 hours by day. I think that we are not playing the same game.
It all changes from player to player. I have always considered myself as an average speed player, but I am currently on the sick from work thanks to an ACL injury and I have breezed through about 6 or 7 seasons less than a week.
So far, 2 weeks. Go me!
Think it takes me about a 1.5 days to complete a season.
But I've got a rake of leagues going on. And I'm quite thorough in scouting. Scouting for a new player can take me 6 hours. Mine is perhaps slow by design?
But in general it zips along just fine.
I dont want to disappoint you OP, but after 4-5 season there is an ocean of regens with many leagues loaded,that would take even more time to explore.
So you could load only the leagues you would accept to go there.
Also what if you plan your expectations/day of gaming.1st day for the transfer period and playing until january and the 2nd day for transfers and the rest of the season.
But then again when you also manage a national team beside yout team will slow you down a bit:o
I think I'm getting slow in my old age.
Started a new game around midday today and only now finished the season.
That's weird. I play about a game per day. I must be extremely slow.
Takes me about 8 hours to do a season, Inow only have goals on 3d and the rest of the game on text and that has helped me get through it a bit quicker
To be honest this thread is spelling out to me that perhaps my FM days are over as I'm not able to spend so much time playing the game.
I play the game quite a bit, but it took me around a week to get through a season with Forest as I was so busy with scouting signings, match preparation and generally making myself believe I could get them promoted.
It's taken me 7 hours today to play a match in the Premiership. So yeah, I'm pretty slow.
I think there's a confusion going on here. Some people are talking about game time (length of time playing the game it takes to finish a season), and some people are talking about actual time (eg. they started their new FM game on 10th November, and only finished the first season on the 24th, meaning it took them a fortnight).
I'm referring to the actual game time, so a day is 24 hours of accumulated playing time.
I'm somewhat slower then you Colorado, first season took me about 2 days 16 hours of gametime. Can't say I'm not enjoying myself with my current save. Second season usually goes a little faster as most things are set up already.
About a week, maybe more.
Two/three weeks for me. It takes about 30 minutes for my game to progress a week as I have full detail on, all players in top division clubs in Europe and all UK leagues including Level 8 in England and county cups.
I've worked out why I've slowed down - I loaded 8x the amount of leagues I usually do.
10 hours a season for me with 8 countries loaded.
Played a total of 5 days, 16 hours and 57 minutes and I'm just starting the 2020/2021 season.
Got England, Spain, Italy, Germany, The Netherlands, Portugal and France loaded.
Fm says 2days, 1hr and I'm in first season, Feb.
I play windowed mode and watch tv show/youtube at same time as I've gotten a bit bored of FM now. I never enjoy the first couple of seasons, I just want my newgens
I've played for around 8 days, game time and I'm just starting the 5th season. I tend to have periods where I will fly through a game but then spend ages trying to scout and sort out my shortlist. Just like I'm doing now...can't for the life of me find a second striker and attacking mid.
I've played 83 hours (3 days 11 hours), and i'm in January of my first season (but then again the first season always takes just a little bit longer then the following seasons, unless you change teams). I would like to speed up my game but I always watch games in full as I find looking at the stats and analyzer a bit boring and like to see for myself what is going on and what needs to be inproved upon. Than I tend to forget myself looking at trainingprogress, new players, my current players form and moral and what have you, new backroom staff, and tinkering with my tactical setup. Very slow progress and I wish I could speed it up but I'm not really prepered to cut down on anything I'm doing so I guess I have to live with it.
An average season for me takes maybe a day or two of real life playing. I usually play through a season quicker when things are going well. If I'm winning a lot of games I tend to spend less time tinkering.
it could take me about one to two weeks to finish a season, but then i might not play everyday.
It's definately noticeably slower than FM11 for me.
I think the thing I notice most is the private chats. It seems to take forever every time you click a response, it was much faster in FM11. Really hope they fix that with a patch as I find private chats a brilliant way to bring up morale, but it's so slow that it saps my morale at the moment...
Took me about 3 to 4 days (3 x 24h) to finish my season.
Apparently i never got to my 4th season.
In past versions i always start a new save somewhere around my 3rd or 4th season, just started on my 3rd save of FM12 yesterday.
Usually it takes 10-14 days for me to complete one season (in real time).

Boon to NEA brass
Among the beneficiaries of the recent fiscal-cliff deal were the leaders of the National Education Association. Under President Obama's original demand to soak the rich, the 14 top officers of the nation's largest special interest — Top 2 Percenters all — would have seen their income taxes rise because their annual salaries range from $250,684 to $389,620.
With the threshold raised to $400,000, they're exempt from the latest government gouge, and so are 39 other union employees whose salaries range from $200,000 to $250,000. In all, 436 NEA employees were paid at least $100,000 in the fiscal year ending Aug. 31 to lobby for more money for teachers and against reforms to improve the quality of teachers and public education.

CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/07/12 -- The Calgary Parking Authority (CPA) is partnering with the Kensington , Uptown 17th and 4th StreetBusiness Revitalization Zones (BRZ) to run their second annual Holiday Parking Elves campaign. Holiday parking elves will offer two hours worth of free parking to randomly selected visitors to Kensington, Uptown 17th and 4th Street on December 8 and 15 from 11:30 am to 4:00 pm.
"Last year, our Holiday Parking Elves campaign was well received by Calgarians visiting these areas," said Troy McLeod, CPA General Manager. "It's a fun way for CPA and our partnering BRZs to provide an easy parking experience for our customers."
To qualify for two hours of free parking, visitors must approach a Holiday Parking Elf and request a free parking session before they make a parking payment. The elves will also randomly select visitors and offer free two-hour parking sessions on behalf of the CPA and BRZ.
"This campaign helps promote Calgary's unique and vibrant communities," said Jennifer Rempel, Executive Director of 4th Street BRZ. "Particularly during the holiday season, Calgarians are invited to take advantage of our excellent shopping and dining options."
A total of 1,500 free parking sessions will be given out by the elves during the campaign. Elves will record the time, zone number and license plate information for each patron who receives a free parking session. This information will be added to CPA's ParkPlus payment database.
The campaign aims to increase the number of visitors to these areas during the holiday season and spread holiday cheer from the CPA and participating BRZs.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

6 Things That Are Secretly Turning You Into A Bad Person
#3. Touch
Of our five senses, the one we pay the least attention to, and science studies the least, is touch. Yet recent experiments indicate that we may be vastly underrating the first sense we develop. Everything from the feel of the chair you sit on to what you're holding can influence your behavior and the decisions you make.
Imagine yourself touching this. You'll be kinder in the comments.
Over a series of studies, scientists found that they could easily manipulate people's feelings and perceptions based on nothing more than what the subjects were touching. Holding heavier objects, for instance, made men think more seriously about things, which in turn made them more likely to donate money to charity if asked. Men holding lighter objects were less likely to donate to charitable causes. People handling rough objects were more likely to see neutral social situations in a bad light, saying that other people were obviously in a bad mood. That means that the answer to arguably the most frequently asked question over the course of human history -- "What the fuck is your problem?" -- might be as simple as "The tag on this new underwear is digging into my ass."
He killed millions. But in his defense, that shirt looks wicked itchy.
Perhaps the most shocking find was that your hands didn't have to be the things doing the touching. People who sat in hard chairs were more likely to maintain a hard line in negotiations and were less receptive to their partner's way of thinking. So watch out for that next time you try to convince your boss you need a raise. If instead of a chair she offers you a pile of ducklings to sit on, you're basically screwed. After all, to be truly effective, ass kissing probably needs to be taken in new, horrifically literal directions.
#2. Email
One of the reasons it's difficult to lie to someone's face is that it's not just the words you're saying that have to sound convincing. You have to think about eye contact, body movements -- everything has to come together to tell a believable lie. Because of this, psychologists have always known that people are more likely to lie in a letter than face-to-face.
But a recent study found that while you might fib with pen and paper you are almost guaranteed to lie over email. Participants in the study were instructed to split $89 with a second party. They were told the other participant would not know the amount being split, and had to accept any amount offered. An incredible 92 percent of people using email lied about the amount of money they were splitting. Only 64 percent of those writing it down did (although, 64 percent? We're just bad at being a species, aren't we?). On average, the email users gave their partners $27 less than a fair split.
Person + Computer = Sociopath.
Not only that, the email users actually felt justified in lying. It seems that the act of merely staring at a computer screen is like injecting your soul with Botox, removing all emotional investment and guilt about what you type. It might be worth keeping that in mind the next time your boss emails you to tell you how well he thought your presentation went.
Constant, manic paranoia is all that can save your career.
#1. Magnets
The movies are full of complex brainwashing plots. Well, it turns out you can forget sleeper agents and Manchurian candidates. We are all one simple step away from being mobilized into an evil army of blood thirsty killers. All it would take is a supervillain with the will to rule the world and a big enough magnet.
Did someone say magnets?
Yes, it turns out our moral compass is as easy to fool as, well, a non-moral compass. Scientists at MIT conducted a study in which they pointed a magnetic wave "behind the right ear" of volunteers who had apparently failed to read the most crucial fine print in the history of release forms. The scientists were apparently trying to test their hypothesis that the back right is the part of the brain that's responsible for telling right from wrong. If you're anything like us, you find the term "back right" unsettlingly vague when it's being used by the guys trying to figure out how to flip humanity's "sociopath" switch.
Without the aid of a goatee.
Well, in case you're bad at pattern recognition, the participants who had their moral centers magnetized demonstrated an impaired ability to tell the difference between right and wrong. The scientists found that subjects could have their morality wiped in half a second, or the time it would take you to turn around and ask the guy in the white lab coat why he's pointing a laser tag gun at the back of your head. This makes our ability to tell right from wrong easier to erase than a VHS tape.
All that stands between you and Evil You.
The study found that subjects were especially willing to accept immoral situations as long as there was a "happy" outcome that justified the immoral means. So there you go, humanity. The guy who controls the giant magnetic crane at the junk yard can persuade you to off his wife for him, but he'll need to promise you cake first.

A theoretical question which thought about instead of writing my C++ code. I know it is poorly defined however I am now intrigued as to the answer!
If you got into a boat in the middle of the sea before sunrise, and as the sun cam up sailed directly towards it, and continued to do so throughout the day until you were heading west in the evening at sunset, and then stopped at sun down. Repeat this for say a week/month, then look on a GPS device as to the path you have traveled, what shape would your path/footprint be?
Everyone I have asked has come up with a different answer, and short of buying a boat not sure how to work it out.

I have a couple of problems using facebook graph api.
1). When i try to upload a photo i get the following error "(#324) Requires upload file".
$attachement = array(
'access_token'=> (...)',
'name' => 'uploaded foto',
'source' => 'C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Desktop\1.jpg'
$fb_foto = $fb->api('me/photos','POST',$attachement);
I am sure that source is correct. I have tried with a photo from the internet and not from mu local PC also.
2). How can i delete an object from facebook?. (a wall message for example). I have tried this: $fb->api('/post_id','POST',array('method'=> 'delete'));
But i get "unsupported POST request" error.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Here is the complete solution i found for upload photos to Facebook. You need to have the version 2.1.1 or above of PHP SDK
$fb = new Facebook(array(
'appId' => ...,
'secret' => ...,
'cookie' => true,
$attachement = array(
'access_token'=> '...',
'name' => 'uploaded foto',
'source' => '@absolute_path_to_the_file'
$fb_foto = $fb->api('me/photos','POST',$attachement);

I am using xubuntu 11.10. I'd like to be able to switch users, and I'd like to be able to do this within the xfce user interface. I read somewhere that there might be an applet I can install, but I cannot seem to find it. Can someone help?
In a terminal:
During installation it will ask you to switch window manager - do not choose GDM, but stick with lightdm. N.B. since its a text screen press TAB to navigate to "OK" and press ENTER
Right-click and add a new panel item - User Switching
If you don't want to bring in the whole of gdm and dependencies, you can just create a launcher that achieves the same thing. Put this
into a file called
Then add a Launcher plugin to your panel, edit the menu and click the button with a white paper with a plus on it, there you can just type in fast-user-switch (it should auto-complete while you type if you did the past steps correctly), and select a nice icon (search for
Note: The next version of XFCE, 4.10, will include a Switch User button in the Actions plugin, and deprecate the session menu.
Note to the note: if you have kdm instead of gdm/lightdm (kdm+xfce may be an odd combination, but it happens), the 4.10 Switch User button doesn't work. However, the following bash script works, and additionally lets you either log in as a currently logged in user, or start a new login:
You can click your user name in the top panel and then select "Lock Screen." From the locked screen select "New Login" and it will take you back to the LightDM screen where you can click a different user name and enter the password. The first user is still logged in and you can switch back and forth this way.
Lock screen, and when prompted to login, click "New login".
(Works on 12.04, but it probably works on 11.10 too)
gdmflexiserver did not work for me coz it was not there on my system.
I used dm-tool instead: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfswitch-plugin/+bug/1320560

What are the top 3 improvements you would like to see on Deals.woot?
You can do more or less if you would like.
25 Answers answer
1. Make PM's available.
2. A comprehensive FAQ.
3. A sticky feature to keep a post or two at the top for awhile as needed.
@faughtey: Good idea, good idea, bad idea. We already have stupid comments that float to the top. Who will decide which posts should be sticky, and which not?
I've seen so much dreck on AtC/AtW in the past few days that I'm beginning to feel like I've gone back in time, and am lost in the September That Never Ended. Just ignore me, I'm stuck on cranky, and it's going to take a few days to get better.
Anyway, I think that third one would be abused in hideous ways that would be eye opening and fearsome. Anything that moves along the idea of a PM system where we could send and receive here on Deals (and even better, have some sort of handy dandy notification), would be outstanding and then some.
@capguncowboy needs to be deemed King. As of right now, it's only implied. An official announcement would be nice.
@faughtey: I like the sticky feature which I'm assuming is by user, like in other deal forums. A deal alert email feature would also be nice.
pm's on the deals side (with notifications)
an accurate rep system
put wootbot back in the mailroom.
@shrdlu: Moderators (staff) would have reign over sticky threads. Sticky threads are a great addition to forums when done correctly. For example, during a wootoff, there could be one question that is stickied dealing with BoC's. I'm not sure if BoC's get spammed over the forums but I'm just using it as an example.
The goal of stickies are to stop spam and help out the majority of users, not to give certain threads(questions) popularity. I, for one, think it's a great idea.
3. Reduce the importance of questions asked in the reputation calculation.
2. Put a system that alerts users when a tattle is pending on a deal or question (an icon for suspected duplicate, an icon for possibly expired, etc., etc.). This would reduce the number of duplicate tattles and let users know something might be amiss with the deal
1. Allow posters to specify an expiration date for a deal when it is known; the deal would auto-RIP when that date passed.
@holymythos: Okay, fair warning ahead of time. I am flat stuck on cranky (as I'd said). I know how sticky posts work. Trust me on this one; I've been here, on Deals, from the early beta days. In addition, the forums over on Wooterville are quite different (although sadly, becoming less so) than the conversations that go on, here. I understand precisely who would be choosing posts to make sticky. I suggest to you that it is a mixed bag, and that, like the parable of the Frogs and the Stork King, you might not be happy with what you wish for.
At all.
As @heymo says, please reduce the importance of question asking. It seems like AtC/AtW has turned into some sort of IRC chat room...
@shrdlu: gives you a hug Feel better hun :( Anyways, I think with testing it might work out alright. I'd be all for testing.
I'd like to have a notification system where you receive an e-mail only when someone replies to your comment.
All I want
I'd still like to see some consistency in mods/edits of deals and tags.
Again PM's available on deals side. (All ready noted)
The ability to edit your comments and deals beyond the five minute window.
Reduce the dependency of certain actions for the leaderboard.
And my favorite bag: A tab on the mini-questions when surfing the deals side, so that I don't have to click on AtC or Fresh tab of deals to see fresh questions.
1. http://deals.woot.com/questions/details/18966b39-32af-4820-b335-c1f1b4ebfc69/did-oj-do-it#0032b405-b11c-412b-b07d-45b8b87d44ec
2. Add a good FAQ as mentioned.
3. Make the voting not permanent again, or at least give it longer than 5 minutes. (Or cough up the cartoon).
4. IP ban Iggz.... >:) Just kidding, kinda
5. I'd also like to see a little less moderation on tags personally. People can't use them as a search option if they all say "home" or "electronics".
I'd like to see an option to show more deals per page, so when I'm checking out the fresh deals and searching for good deals most of my time isn't taken up by clicking the next arrow and waiting for my browser to load.
Also, another vote for auto-rip
Another vote for less emphasis on question asking and perhaps a feature to weigh good answers more would help
Thumbs down for stickies
Finally, the combination of wootbot auto adding buy.com and other site's "deals" and the show more feature pretty much kills any good deal from that site with hundreds of lame deals. I like the fact that it helps the people searching for deals, but it is near impossible to get one popular without duplicating. So ... thumbs down wootbot
Oh, another non-realistic improvement would to somehow schism the amusing/interesting/funny deals and the actual money saving deals on the popular tab.
Anti-crab deal filter.
1. PM ability
2. better screening of sponsored deals. Some recent titles/description have been really misleading, and some companies should have been banned long ago.
3. A clear page outlining the rules for posting deals
I can give you iggz' real IP address and location if you'd like.
although why he's interested in your balls is strange...
3. Definately making questions less important to rep. I don't care about my own rep at all, but I do want the ability to trust that black triangles post good deals, not spam questions. I love some of the fun/chatty questions that get posted, but some are clearly just to rig the rep system.
2. Definately a Deals PM system, that'd be great.
1. Auto remove deals that don't receive any votes (or maybe just the user vote) after like 12 hours, they aren't doing anything but clogging fresh at that point. It is so easy to get at least one vote in that timeframe if your deal is even mediocre.
I'd like to see a filter tab that feeds specific item/specific category deals when a user has set profile preferences.
I think questions should eventually disappear or be declared dead, like RIP'd deals. The same question might have a different answer 6 months later.
I noted an issue with tags moving slowly. It only tries to suggest things after you've fully entered the tag, and it should really be real-time.
Perhaps a way to officially suggest a question get staff response.
Private messages would be nice.
Auto-submit any (non-staffer) who posts X deals in Y time for review to reduce spam.
Also, I second @scjeff 's categorical deal filter. We've seen this mentioned elsewhere, but not recently.
Also, pull RIP'd deals from the popular tab (though not from searches) because they're clutter.
Searches prefer live deals.
Post @Snapster 's definition of "deal" where everyone will see it.
@heymo: good job
@jeffyn: Ummm... thanks! Why? Did they agree to implement one of my suggestions?
There should be a limit on deals. I dont like the ideal that there is a deal for a great item only to find out it is 3-4 months old :(.
A way to lower rep of posters
A true posting system.

Over the past decade, soldiers, spouses and others physically and sexually and otherwise abused nearly 30,000 children in Army families. Children have been beaten, tortured and starved to death in shockingly cruel acts of discipline; 118 kids died as a result.
Though the rate of child abuse and neglect in the Army is far lower than in the national average, cases in the civilian population have remained flat in recent years while they have alarmingly spiked in the Army community. The 3,698 cases last year were a 28 percent spike over 2009.
It's heartbreaking, as tragic and insidious as the military suicide and sexual assault epidemics. But while those issues have finally and rightfully come under intense public and political pressure for change, the assault on Army children has largely remained in the shadows.
As a result, children have suffered in greater numbers.
Army leaders cannot be inside every home or pinpoint every potential abuse case, but much more can be done to protect vulnerable children.
The Army provides some resources for struggling families and to its credit is rolling out several more programs aimed at behavioral health support, a critical component for a community in which spouses often are under unique stresses, including long separations while troops train and deploy.
The Army hopes that the support system will make it easier to spot those at risk for domestic violence, suicide and child abuse. But the rollout won't be complete until 2017 — if the funding holds up in these tight budget times. And the programs are voluntary.
More such resources and mandatory participation should be core components of attacking the child-abuse problem.
But before even providing such resources, more has to be done to prevent individuals prone to misconduct and violence from joining the Army. Spc. Joseph Allsop asphyxiated his 5-month-old daughter, Jade, during a sexual assault. The investigation led to the discovery that Allsop had a sealed juvenile record as a child molester, a record shielded from Army background checks.
Army Chief of Staff Ray Odierno admitted to Congress last month that the Army "has to do a better job" vetting potential soldiers. But laws in many states prevent review of juvenile records, including when individuals seek to join the military.
The House has passed and the Senate is considering legislation prohibiting anyone convicted of a felony sex crime from entering the military, a policy already adopted in March by the Defense Department. The difference is that Congress would prevent any waivers and put the prohibition in law. This a good start, but none of the legislation covers juvenile records for sex crimes — they should be included.
Beyond legislation banning sex criminals, and resources for stressed families, the Army needs to elevate awareness inside its own community of the problem of child abuse. Just as leadership has been campaigning to get soldiers to recognize and act on signs of potential suicidal behavior and to call out others for sexual harassment, it must educate Army families to spot potential child abuse and speak up.
Marcus Holloway might be alive today if neighbors, school officials or others on Fort Sill, Okla., had noticed his suffering or his family's situation. Marcus, 10, starved to death over five months. He weighed 44 pounds when he died. No one noticed that the boy and his sister weren't in school, or that they were in housing illegally.
The system failed Jade and Marcus and almost 30,000 other Army children over the past decade.
The Army has to do a better job looking out for its kids.

WEIRTON - As the Madonna football team prepares for Saturday's West Virginia Class A state championship game with Wahama, the Weirton community is showing its support for the Blue Dons.
"The support from the community is real nice," said Madonna senior Garrett Hypes. "Today we're eating at Mario's Restaurant and yesterday Undo's had us up. It feels great to have the community have our back through it all.
"It means a lot that they support us through this whole thing."

DINING OUT — Members of the Madonna football team ate dinner at Mario's Restaurant in Weirton Wednesday. Mario's provided dinner for the Blue Dons, who play for the West Virginia Class A state championship Saturday in Wheeling against Wahama.
-- Fred Younce
Added head coach Doug Taylor, "It's really important knowing the community supports you. I think it's important to the team that they know the community supports them, and to know they have an obligation to give something back to them as well."
Hypes is joined by the team's three other seniors - Charlie Kotten, James Fulciniti, and Quintin Hukill - in being humbled by the Weirton's support the Blue Dons.
"It's great to see all these people supporting us - both Madonna fans and people who aren't Madonna fans," said Kotten. "For people to appreciate how well we're doing is great to see."
Added Fulciniti, "I think it's great that everyone in Weirton supports us as we go for the state title. It's great having everyone behind as as we're preparing for the game, and knowing they care about us."
Continued Hukill, "It's great to have the Madonna family behind us."
The seniors, who were freshmen during Madonna's last state title run, are being counted on to provide extra leadership in Saturday's game, set for 7 p.m. at Wheeling Island Stadium.
"If you look back they were part of the 2009 team," said Taylor. "They were freshmen so I think they know what it takes to win it.
"We're looking to their leadership to lead this team to get another one."
Added Hypes, "There's a lot more pressure on us this time. When we were freshmen the senior class had a great work ethic and carried the team the whole year.
"It wasn't much that we did, but this year we're all in the loop so we all have our own load to carry. It's a great feeling."
Continued Hukill, "My freshman year I had a great ride going to the state championship game that we won.
"This year I want to make a difference. I'm the one who's at the front. It would be a great way to go out."
Said Kotten, "Our freshman year most of us didn't see much playing time. It was great to win a state title, but you don't know that feeling of being a starter.
"Now that I'm a senior starter it's just such a great feeling to know I was a part of getting us this far in the playoffs. It's great to see how well we're doing and we have a great chance of winning it."
Fulciniti, who transferred to Madonna as a sophomore, remembers watching the 2009 team from the stands.
"I think it's great coming to Madonna and making it all the way to the state championship," he said. "When I was at Weir High my freshman year I remember going to the game and thinking I wish I could be in the state championship game, and here we are."
For this group of seniors winning a title as freshmen was great, but winning one in their final year much more.
"It would mean a lot," said Hypes. "It would feel great to go out with a win and be one of the few senior classes in Madonna history to win a state title."

suppose $p$ a prime ideal. If $p=a \cap b$, $a,b$ ideals. Is it true that we have to have $p=a$ or $p=b$?
True. Suppose that $\mathfrak{p}$ is neither $\mathfrak{a}$ nor $\mathfrak{b}$. Pick $x \in \mathfrak{a} \backslash \mathfrak{p}$, $y \in \mathfrak{b} \backslash \mathfrak{p}$. Consider $xy \in \mathfrak{a} \cap \mathfrak{b} = \mathfrak{p}$. This implies that $x$ or $y$ must lie in $\mathfrak{p}$, contradiction.
An ideal $I$ satisfying this condition -- namely that if for ideals $\mathfrak{a}$ and $\mathfrak{b}$ of $R$, $I = \mathfrak{a} \cap \mathfrak{b} \implies I = \mathfrak{a}$ or $I = \mathfrak{b}$ -- is called irreducible. Irreducible ideals occur in the theory of primary decomposition. For the bare rudiments of this theory, see e.g. Chapter 10 of my commutative algebra notes.
A few samples:
$ $
$ $
$ $
Combining the last two results one gets Noether's theorem, the basic result on primary decomposition.
Since $ab\subset a\cap b$, we see that $ab\subset p$. Now use the definition of prime to see that $a\subset p$ or $b\subset p$.

POWHATAN POINT - A new police chief was named Monday night during a special council meeting called by Powhatan Mayor Mark McVey.
On the recommendation of McVey, council's four members present voted unanimously to hire Joshua Haught, who has been with the Powhatan force for one year, as chief.
Council members in attendance included Jerry Binni, who made the motion to suspend rules and hire Haught on an emergency basis; Dave Walters, John Mitchell and Brady Dierkes. Haught replaces Rich Young, who resigned as interim police chief, effective Oct. 13.

POWHATAN Point Mayor Mark McVey, left, presents to a badge to Police Chief Joshua Haught, designating Haught's new position with the Powhatan Police Department. Haught was named chief at Monday night's council meeting.
The 26-year-old Haught is a resident of Shadyside.
He earned his certification at the East Ohio Law Enforcement Academy in Bethesda and has served in law enforcement for five years.
Mayor McVey administered the oath of office following the council session.
As well, McVey presented Haught with his official badge designating his position as police chief.
Haught will earn $32,762 per year, a two-week paid vacation and five personal days. He will be paid a $250 clothing allowance for the remainder of this year and $500 per year, beginning in 2013.
His contract extends through Dec. 31, 2013.
In another matter, council approved an ordinance that Lehman's compost site will be used for the disposal of storm debris.
McVey thanked Councilman Walters for his work coordinatinng with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Ohio-West Virginia Excavating and Lehman's Landscaping to have the storm debris moved from the area on Main Street at the mouth of Captina Creek.
Councilman Dierkes, at the Oct. 2 council session, thanked American Coal Sales for volunteering its equipment and operators to sweep village streets.
Work was carried out for four days.
"They did a real nice job," said Dierkes. According to the councilman, all streets in the village were swept with the exception of those on hills, and that was due to dangers which may have been encountered with the equipment. "The town looks much better," noted the mayor.
Dierkes also extended his thanks and appreciation to Councilman Walters for being out every day with the American Coal Sales personnel.
