Wolverines! — Iowa Rep. Steve King Claims Gun Laws Must Be Blocked To Prevent Invasion Of America
The 1984 film Red Dawn is a classic in the genre of paranoid Cold War guns fantasy, where a group of armed high school students fend off an invading Soviet army and eventually "g[i]ve up their lives… so that this nation shall not perish from the earth." Rep. Steve King (R-IA), however, seems to believe it is a manual for federal firearms policy:
King said during a debate last week in Orange City that the original purpose of the Second Amendment was not to assure hunting rights or allow people to provide for self-protection. The purpose was "to guard against tyranny because our Founding Fathers understood that if we did not have an armed populace, an armed tyrant could take over America," King said.
When asked whether such a threat was legitimate in 2012, he said, "We don't have that threat now because we have an armed populace, and we don't have to worry about that because of an armed populace." . . .
When asked if the "armed tyrant" was an outside threat or even the U.S. government, King said, "I don't see it as our own federal government. I wouldn't rule it out down the line in a generation or two. I wouldn't say that's not part of it. I don't see it today, and I don't anticipate that that's the case."
Watch it:
Setting aside King's suggestion that invading armies have thus far steered clear of American soil because they fear reprisal from a ragtag band of civilian Wolverines, there are potentially serious policy implications to King's interpretation of the Second Amendment. A foreign army would certainly deploy the tools of modern warfare if it chose to capture American soil, so a misfit band of patriotic teenagers would need to arm themselves with similar weapons in order to provide a meaningful deterrent to such forces.
Needless to say, this is not what the Second Amendment provides. As conservative Justice Scalia explained in District of Columbia v. Heller, "dangerous and unusual weapons" are not protected by the Constitution. More recently, a federal appeals court explained in an opinion by a George W. Bush-appointed judge that "[s]hort of bombs, missiles, and biochemical agents, we can conceive of few weapons that are more dangerous than machine guns," and thus all of these weapons can be banned under the Second Amendment.

This video is light on story and heavy on sex. Basically, a plane full of passengers and airline staff pair off to fuck each other in the friendly skies. Luckily, the plane is the size of a warehouse, which makes the final orgy possible. The video begins with a good threesome and moves on to both boy/boy and girl/girl scenes. Afterwards, some of the passengers get restless and begin playing with each other - this is the beginning of a fine orgy. More passengers and staff join the sex party until it's wall-to-wall flesh.

Russia's Rostelecom May Participate in Auction for Ukrtelecom
OAO Rostelecom, Russia's dominant long-distance phone company, may take part in an auction to buy Ukrainian state-owned telephone company VAT Ukrtelecom, according to a spokesman at Rostelecom.
Rostelecom will "study carefully the terms of the sale of Ukrtelecom proposed by the government of Ukraine," said Oleg Rumyantsev in answer to e-mailed questions from Bloomberg News.
Ukraine's State Property Fund has yet to set a date for the auction. Prime Minister Mykola Azarov said yesterday the government aims to sell the company by the year-end.
Billionaire Rinat Akhmetov, Ukraine's richest man, is also interested in acquiring Ukrtelecom, Delo newspaper reported today, without saying where it got the information.
Before it's here, it's on the Bloomberg Terminal. LEARN MORE

K9 Water Festivals
The dog days of summer may be long gone by October, but you can still pamper your pooches during the lingering heat of a South Florida fall by letting them frolic at two water parks on dogs-only days. One of Broward County Parks and Recreation's most popular programs for the past dozen years, the K9 Water Festivals, returns this year with three weekend events in October. (There will be no events at C.B. Smith Park this year.)
The series will take place at the following locations on the following dates:
- Splash Adventure at Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach - October 8 and 9
- Castaway Island at T.Y. Park in Hollywood - October 1 and 2; October 15 and 16 (Broward County Animal Care and Adoption will also be on site at Castaway Island with dogs available for adoption)
- Splash Adventure at Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach - October 8 and 9
- Castaway Island at T.Y. Park in Hollywood - October 1 and 2; October 15 and 16 (Broward County Animal Care and Adoption will also be on site at Castaway Island with dogs available for adoption)
Admission is $5 per dog per 50-minute session (plus applicable Florida sales tax), with sessions beginning on the hour from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Splash Adventure and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Castaway Island. Only dogs weighing 25 pounds or less will be permitted for the first session of each day at Splash Adventure and the last session of each day at Castaway Island. Donations of dog and cat food, treats, blankets, and toys will be accepted on behalf of the homeless animals at Broward County shelters.
A few rules apply: All dogs must be off leash when inside the facility and must be sociable and well behaved. Proof of current rabies vaccination and county license tag are required. Other than lifeguards, no humans will be allowed inside the water playgrounds. Finally, dogs are limited to no more than two sessions per day, and dogs must be at least 4 months of age to participate.
For more information, call the park of your choice: Quiet Waters Park at 954-357-5100, or T.Y. Park at 954-357-8811. The parks' regular weekend and holiday gate entrance fee of $1.50/person (children 5 and under free) will be in effect for these events.
This year Quiet Waters will host Barktoberfest as the K9 Splash Adventure event, October 8 and 9. Activities run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and include Rescue and Nonprofit Groups, Sups & Pups, Adoptions, Doggie Market Place, Kiddie Bounce Houses, Face Painting, and Costume Contest. Admission is free, although some activities may entail nominal fees, and there is a $5/dog fee for 50-minute sessions in the water.

Thank U all!


text: I updated this plugin to the latest version today on a multisite install and it's not working. When you try to locate published reviews, it hides the page/sidebar hosting the review form and only makes the review area visible. However, published reviews are gone, but when you click to write a review the previously published reviews appear in an HTML format within a post form. Very weird. Tried grabbing an older version to see if in fact this is the issue but it's not available in the repository.

- 2 beaten eggs
- cornstarch
- salt, pepper
- 1⁄2 lemon, thinly sliced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1⁄2 cup sugar
- 1⁄2 cup pineapple juice
- 1⁄4 cup vinegar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1⁄2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- Dip chicken pieces into 2 beaten eggs.
- Mix cornstarch, salt and pepper and dip the chicken in the cornstarch mixture.
- Fry in small amount of oil in frying pan.
- Put into a casserole dish.
- Make sauce: Saute the lemon and onion in the oil until onion is soft.
- Add the sugar, vinegar, and pineapple juice.
- In a separate bowl, mix the corn starch, water, and soy sauce, then add to the sauce.

This was totally awesome!! Tasted better than what you get in a restaurant!! My whole family LOVED IT!! Thanks for the great recipe!
This is really an awesome recipe. Prep time is a little longer than 20 minutes but WELl Worth it.
This was great. Finishing the chicken off in the oven made it really tender. I added veggies that I had on hand - carrot, capsicum, eschallots and made a bit more breading to suit my taste. I will make this again.

92" DaLite screen with Triad Bronze in-walls and two subs. Acoustic panels on front wall painted to match black wall. Flat black turned out to be a great color for projector image quality and light reflection

Everything runs on a UPS and surge/filter protection. Not in the photo's is the Wii and buttkicker.
started with a bare basement and built the room. All framing and drywall was nailed, screwed and used liquid nails and silicon for a tight room to avoid ANY rattles.
I used Soundblok one pound per square foot mass loaded vinyl material to "enclose" the room before drywall and plaster coated the entire room.
used several room calculators to determine a good room size with uneven room dimensions to help deal with peaks and nulls. Also did some simple templates to plan for screen size, placement, projector placement, seating, platform size and location etc. Just a simple cardboard cutout can work great. Also note some of the variations in room shape to help deal with reflections etc.
All the theater gear is connected and distributed back to every room in the house over component. This is terrific for whole house Tivo as well as audio via the networked Denon AVR. Remote control is RF and using Universal Remotes. My goal in life is to slowly get a tv in every room (master bath included to bride the finance committee).
Lots of insulation.

Pawlenty Endorses Romney; GOP Contenders Debate Tonight
Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, the first major candidate to drop out of the race for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, has endorsed his one-time rival Mitt Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts.
During his brief run for the GOP nomination, Pawlenty coined the term "Obaneycare" to try to make the point that the controversial health care overhaul legislation signed into law by President Obama was based, at least in part, on the health care overhaul legislation signed into law by Romney when he was a governor.
But now:
"Alone among the contenders, he possesses the unique qualifications to confront and master our severe economic predicament," Pawlenty says in a statement posted on the Romney campaign's website. "His abiding faith in our country's exceptional historical position as a beacon of freedom will make him the most important leader in a world that depends upon a strong America to stay at peace."
Meanwhile, Romney and the others still in the race are in Florida for tonight's CNN/Tea Party debate at 8 p.m. ET. And as they gather, there's word in a new CNN/ORC International Poll that Texas Gov. Rick Perry has widened his lead over Romney among Republicans.
Our friend Frank James over at It's All Politics follows this and all the other 2012 campaign news.

Application fee manipulations in matching markets
In some well-known hospital–intern type of matching markets, hospitals impose mandatory application fees on internship applicants to consider their applications. Motivated by this real-life phenomenon, we study the application fee overreporting incentives of hospitals in centralized matching markets by assuming that interns have finite budgets to spend on such fees. Our main theorem shows that no stable mechanism is immune to application fee manipulations. Interestingly, under any stable rule, hospitals might not only obtain better matchings but also increase their application fee revenues through overreporting their application fees. In the restricted domains in which either side has homogeneous preferences or each hospital has only one available position, every stable mechanism turns out to be immune to application fee overreportings.

While many mothers can say they watched their daughter receive her diploma, far fewer actually share the experience with their child.
On Saturday, Dec. 14, Christina Smith and her daughter Marilyn Blount both received degrees from McNeese State University. A happy coincidence — both experienced scheduling problems — led to the the two sharing the same graduation date.
Smith graduated with a Bachelor in General Studies Arts and Humanities with a minor in History. She began pursuing a degree in education 11 years ago, but as so often happens, life intervened. She said she is now considering pursuing a Master of Arts in teaching.
Blount, a 2009 graduate from Sam Houston High School, graduated cum laude from the College of Liberal Arts with a bachelor's degree in Art Education and a minor in Psychology.
Blount is moving to New Orleans to teach English and Language Arts to high-risk middle school students. The petite 21-year-old is will be accompanied by her 110-lb St. Bernard Leia.
"I was lucky enough to student teach with Ms. Donald at Oak Park Middle," said Blount. "That really solidified my wanting to go to an at-risk school."
Smith said both of her children are leaving the nest at the same time. Her son Hayden, 19, has joined the Marine Corps.
"I'm okay with it," Smith said, "Even though it is a little far."
Blount and Smith still have some time together. The two are vacationing with Smith's mother and Blount's grandmother Dianne Dronet.

Dr. Kaleigh McVety talks about compassionate end of life pet care.
In Merriam-Webster's dictionary, the word "pet" is defined as "a domesticated animal used for pleasure rather than utility". However, to the vast majority of my clients, our pets are way more than this to us. They are family members that serve a purpose, even if it is just to snuggle with us at night or wag their tails frantically when we come home; because no one in the world is more special to them than us.
Dr. Alycia Cullen, a veterinarian at our TVV Decatur Emergency, informs clients on what to expect at their pet's ER visit and how to be prepared in the event of an emergency...
An emergency visit to the veterinarian can be fraught with stress and emotion. Chances are, if you are coming to see us in the middle of the night, you are very concerned about the well-being of your pet. First, you are trying to decide if you should come in...are the symptoms bad enough? Can they wait until the morning? Then, you have to decide how you are going to get here. Who will be there to greet you? Will your pet receive the same great care overnight that he or she always receives during the day? Here are a few facts about emergency care that may help you better prepare for a trip to the ER:

A friend of mine, who shall remain nameless, (to keep him anonymous lets just refer to him as Christian Kline of Seattle, WA) has a really cool photo blog http://www.scrapofpaper.com/blog/impermanence.html he will hate me for pointing people at his site because he doesn't like people. That's ok tho, people don't like him.
i think these are really cool ways of doing the blogging thing - for photo orientated people like Christian, it means you are forced to do stuff like a new photo every day. Some other photo blogs I like:
i really like this guys way of doing stuff http://www.tenyearsofmylife.com
this guy is a little hit or miss (love the nov 30 shot) http://wvs.topleftpixel.com/
love this guys nyc stuff http://www.quarlo.com/
i wonder if a music blog - kinda like the old They Might Be Giants song of the day could work (they had a phone number you could call & hear a new song every day - it was in america & i was in australia, so i only ever called it twice. when i was at my girlfriend at the times parents house...).
Of course I am slow & have no time so I would be lucky to do a song a month. I hate new years resolutions, but I am going to investigate on how to do something like that. for my own stuff. I think I'll find somewhere to do it – not sure if this site is appropriate...
p.s. for those who asked there is a reason I can spell insouciant & not competent (hmmm maybe I should have that as my blog byline)

Tip of the Day
Downloading Genius Mixes from iTunes Match
By placing a user's entire music library in the cloud, Apple's iTunes Match service makes the Genius Mixes feature particularly useful, since these mixes now have your entire music library to choose from without potentially taking up a lot of space on your iOS device—tracks are downloaded and played on-demand as you listen to a given Genius Mix. This works great if you're on a good Wi-Fi or cellular data connection, but users who are frequently offline or have limited cellular data plans may find this option less appealing. Fortunately, the iPhone and iPod touch Music app do allow you to use your Genius Mixes offline, at least partially, by using any already-download portions of a Genius Mix and even allowing you to pre-download a Genius Mix on demand. Simply go to the Genius Mixes section in your Music app and you should see a small iCloud download icon in the top left corner of the screen. Tapping on this will download 25 selected tracks from the current Genius Mix, making them available for offline listening. The Genius Mix will also include any additional tracks that have already been downloaded to your device from other albums or playlists, or simply from normal listening; if the iCloud download icon doesn't appear for a given Genius Mix, this means that there are already enough tracks on your device and there's no need to manually download additional tracks to listen to the Genius Mix offline. Note that the manual downloading option is unfortunately not available in the iPad Music app.

That's why I don't use cloud services. Not everywhere in the country has fast LTE service available, which is necessary for these cloud services to be any sort of useful. Then you have the matter of data caps to deal with. Put these together and it's why I like to have my music ON my iPhone or iPod and not rely on the cloud.
Posted by ggore in Toronto on October 12, 2012 at 7:45 AM (CDT)
This is truly fantastic and I have never seen such a feature that can be accessed offline and if a user wants to use or access it at the maximum then it is necessary to be connected to a good WiFi or cellular connection. Simultaneously , this may be less demanding for users who often go offline and who prefer a limited data plan. And eventually this Genius Mix has an option of manual download.

i will get to know on 14th if i am going to be sheduled for a c sec based on the fact that my baby is breach since the beginning, if he/she is still breach by my37th week ill get an c sec, now i get very dufferent responces when i share this info with others, some are like thats grt, u r lucky (btw i do have a very low pain threshhold) nd some scare the hell out of me by saying its realy painful afterwards (which is kinda mean i guess i mean its not my choice), can some one who has actually experienced both tell me how bad c sec recovery is and what actually goes on?
C-Sec recovery reality
just need to know what to expect, not that i have a say in selecting the procedure.
I would offer her a beverage because I was raised with manners. But I'd probably decline the penis. -Big Buddha

To be honest, yes, it is surgery. So it's definitely not a walk in the park BUT it's not THAT bad. I definitely needed the pain meds after but only for a few days. You are sore near the incision area and it won't be fun coughing, laughing, or sneezing but it's not to the point where you are not able to do anything. When I had my first we lived in a 2 story place and I was fine walking up and down the stairs when we got released from hospital.
I've had friends who experienced worse recovery vaginally. I had a friend who could walk, stand, or sit comfortable for 2-3 weeks. I was not like that at all. For me, it was very uncomfortable coughing, sneezing, laughing, reaching for things, and getting out of bed- all things that tighten stomach muscle, but again- it was a really sore feeling, like someone punched you in the stomach hard and you had a bruise or you did a thousand sit ups.
Let me know if you have any other detailed questions.
I am pretty sure ill be getting a repeat with this baby in Dec. I'm not too worried about the surgery or recovery. I am nervous, of course but not worried about all the other stuff that comes with the surgery. It will be weird "walking in" to the OR. But my doctor did say with a scheduled CS, recovery is even faster because the body isn't so tired and worked up from the hours of labor. Makes healing faster too. So even better!
thats all very encouraging, thanks alot girls!
What i am thinking is that even in vaginal deliveries alot of women get an epidural, so am sure its hard for them even to walk immediately, also almost all of the cases i know about got stiches down thr so it isnt that comfortable after a normal delivery.
i think our society needs to have a more positive and less frightening image of c sec.
though it must be really hard for women who had to first bear the pain and ten end up with a c sec, thats y have asked my gyny to do the operation before i actually go into labour, now lets see whats in the destiny!
i also live on 2nd floor and will have to climb up the stairs after discharge, i hope am able to do that but most importantly i hope am able to feed my baby :)

Flatiron School Prework
Master Programming Fundamentals on Learn
What is "Prework"?
Before enrolling in one of Flatiron School's immersive programs, all students are required to complete up to 150 hours of prework to ensure that students enter the class with a baseline foundation in a range of technologies.
The materials covered in the prework have two primary goals. The first is to ensure all students have a fluency in a basic set of skills that will not be covered in class. For example, our Web Development Fundamentals track covers enough HTML and CSS that, while students will use these during the course of the semester, we will not explicitly review those topics again on campus. The second is to give students a solid foundation in a breadth of introductory topics that we will cover again at class though at a more rapid pace and increased depth. This includes topics like Swift and Objective-C in iOS and Ruby in Web Development.
The prework Fundamentals tracks are designed to be consumed linearly, and provide anyone with a strong foundation that can be built upon with further learning in any context.
Learn Helps You
Learn, Together.
Learn, Flatiron School's online learning platform, is the primary tool by which students consume content on campus. It was built to address the fundamental shortcomings that exist in online platforms today, and is what allows us to close the gap between "learning to code" and actually becoming a developer. There are three pillars to Learn: Community, Real Tools, and Open Curriculum.
Learning is not about consuming content. It's about connecting with people through content. Using Learn, students can ask each other questions, collaborate on projects, share screens, and ultimately build relationships.
Real Tools
You can't learn real skills with fake tools. While browser-based learning environments and online learning environments are great for getting started, in order to make the leap from learner to professional students need to use the same tools and workflows that developers use to build software in the real world. This is how students consume content using Learn.
Open Curriculum
No one provider can own all the best content. Students should have access to the best, and most up-to-date content in real time. Much like Wikipedia, content on Learn is Open Source and continually improved by students, instructors, and the community at large.
What You Need to Use Learn
Chrome Web Browser
Chrome is highly recommended for the best Learn experience.
What do You
Want to Learn?
There are a lot of opinions out there regarding the best language to learn first. At Flatiron School, our primary goal is to teach you how to think like a programmer. Whether you learn to think that way through the lens of web or mobile doesn't really matter. Changing the way you think is hard and requires commitment. So start with whatever excites you most. Ask yourself what you'd like to build right now. It's like choosing between learning guitar vs bass; once you learn one, learning the other becomes exponentially easier, so start with the one you're most likely to stick with.

This is the 24 bit version, the 16 bit versio is also available on the LMA.
Recorded by Chris Cafiero
Mixed and mastered by Alex Ford
Tracked, flac'ed and seeded by George Berridge
All editing and mastering in 24/44.1 with UAD-1.
Featroller comment: a terrific show. It was the band's first performance after several weeks in the studio
working on the new album, and you can tell they were raring to go. After Rocket In My Pocket, Paul says
"that was nasty." So is the rest. Great versions of Terry Allen's New Delhi Freight Train, first covered
on Time Loves a Hero, and Fred's One Breath at a Time. Can't wait to hear that one on the new studio release!
Top it off with an unusual Hi Roller encore and you have a fine performance all around.
This was also the first show recorded with Chris and Alex's new Tascam DR-680 recorder. You can really hear
the difference. There is a phenomenal-sounding SBD/AUD matrix for sale at livefeat.com. If you don't
want to spend a few bucks, this is the next best thing.
Also available in a 16-bit version
The matrix of this show, which includes this AUD, can be purchased here

I have a Perl script where I maintain a very simple cache using a hash table. I would like to clear the hash once it occupies more than n bytes, to avoid Perl (32-bit) running out of memory and crashing.
I can do a check on the number of keys-value pairs:
if (scalar keys %cache > $maxSize)
%cache = ();
But is it possible to check the actual memory occupied by the hash?

Manners matter. Good looks are a bonus. Humor is a must.
Weird things happen to me. A lot. I once went out for some routine shopping, ended up doing an open audition for "Wheel of Fortune", and three months later I was rubbing elbows with Pat Sajak. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Speaking of, remind me to tell you about the time I drank water directly from one. An iceberg, that is. I'm fairly normal. I like trying things that scare me. I read. A lot. I'm kind of a health nut/ gym rat and would prefer someone with similar interests. Meaning, if you are lazy, a smoker, or illiterate your chances with me are not looking good. As far as what I want in a guy? I want someone who can tell me a story that makes me laugh til I cry. Who has creativity and passion; I would rather have a guy with big dreams and no money than a guy with no dreams and big money. My ideal mate has to be comfortable with himself. I want someone who enjoys being around me, but doesn't depend solely on me for their happiness. So, in an effort to really hone in on who I'm hoping to wind up with, I put together a list of things I am not looking for in a partner.... Is your profile picture a shirtless mirror selfie? Do you own one or more Affliction t-shirts? Do you play World of War Craft? Can you relate to "Jersey Shore"? Are you allergic to sarcasm or witty repartee? Those who answered yes to any of the above, need not apply. The truth is, the whole dating thing is foreign to me and I'm definitely stepping out of my comfort zone with this, but I'm hoping to meet someone worth stepping out for.

Trend Watch: Is Teen TXTNG Killing Language? [VIDEO]
22 April 2013
Does texting mean the death of good writing skills? John McWhorter posits that there's much more to texting -- linguistically, culturally -- than it seems, and it's all good news.
In this TED talk, linguist John McWhorter thinks about language in relation to race, politics and our shared cultural history.
Cyberbullying: A Sociological Approach [RESEARCH]
09 April 2013
Social media and text messaging have assumed a dominant role in communication among adolescent society. And, as common in teenage social environments, these circumstances often involve online teasing and harassing. This has become known as "bullying."
Delaware state Attorney General, Beau Biden, describes cyber bullying as a communication that "interferes with a student's physical well-being, is threatening or intimidating, or is so severe, persistent, or pervasive that it is likely to limit a student's ability to participate in or benefit from the educational programs of the school."
According to Delaware Online, the state recently implemented a law enforcing that schools penalize cyber bullying issues the same as they would for incidents that happen within school walls.
Many states have begun to implement similar laws enforcing stricter punishments for those engaged in cyber bullying, and sometimes the victims are not only teens. NPR recently addressed a North Carolina law that was passed to protect teachers against bullying from their students.
A teacher at the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School had a student create a fake Twitter account under the teacher's identity, and posted offensive comments. Under new laws, students charged with such offenses could potentially face a month in jail and fines of up to $1,000.00.
The recent International Journal of Technoethics article "Cyberbullying: A Sociological Approach" evaluates the concepts of bullying and cyber bullying and addresses the emerging nature of these occurrences: "Cyberbullying has become a major social concern because it raises questions about the ethical use of technology.
In recent years, this has been the subject of research and information and prevention activities for different groups such as governmental and non-governmental organizations and schools and parents' associations to protect against the misuse of technology."
Written by José Neves and Luzia de Oliveira Pinheiro of the University of Minho, Portugal, the article features studies evaluating Portuguese University students in observation and focus groups, interviews, and investigations that aims to explore and define the characteristics of cyberbullying in Portugal.

Kids Online: Opportunities and Challenges in Social Networking
07 November 2012
What do we know about young kids and the online social networking sites in which they participate?
In a new report published by the Joan Ganz Cooney Center , Drs. Deborah Fields and Sara Grimes delve into landscape of kids and social media and raise some important questions that deserve more attention.Kids Online: A new research agenda for understanding social networking forums
A growing number of kids at increasingly younger ages are engaging in online social networking today-a development that is leading to a surge of news stories, media attention, and economic investment.
In this paper, scholars Sara Grimes and Deborah Fields argue that these shifts in usage and public discussion demand a better understanding of the ways that social networking sites mediate kids' socializing and the opportunities and limits they place on kids' participation, particularly for young children.
The paper, Kids online: A new research agenda for understanding social networking forums, is a first step to documenting pressing questions about children's involvement online, namely:
° Which children are using social networking forums and what are they doing there?
° What do we know about how online experiences influence children's social, cognitive, and creative development?
° What kind of research do we need to do now, in order to understand more deeply who is going online, what kinds of things they are doing, and what opportunities or challenges are involved?
° And finally, what should designers, educators, and parents be aware of as they navigate these new environments and try to help children make the most of them?
Why first–year college students select certain online research resources as their favorite
07 October 2012
This paper, written by James P. Purdy, Ph.D., assistant professor of English/writing studies and director of the University Writing Center at Duquesne University, reports results of a preliminary study on why first–year college students select certain online research resources as their favorite.
Results, based on a survey of over 500 U.S. college students in first–year writing classes, offer a more complex picture of student motivation than popular accounts of these students as disinterested, lazy, and ignorant.
Students reported most frequently that they favored resources for reasons of ease, quality, and connectivity.
They reported least frequently that they favored resources for reasons of relevance, variety, and speed. These results suggest that students value finding scholarly sources above relevant sources.Why first–year college students select certain online research resources as their favorite by James Purdy
Global Youth: How Russian Parents View and Capitalize on Digital Media
22 June 2012
Have you ever wondered what technology do Russian kids use and when? How parents in Russia view the digital media impact on the child's development? What role does media play for shared parent-child activity? And how all of this vary with different incomes and city sizes?
Digital trend consultancy Anketki Research has released a new study that looks to answer some of these questions (and more) as well as the current state of rapidly expanded digital media practices among Russian families.
The report provides a wealth of information, stats, facts and insight, associated with children, their parents, Internet and digital devices in Russia. The study was prepared on the basis of the initial survey conducted in March, 2012.
Key Insights
- Searching the internet has become the most popular shared activity for high-school children
- Russian fathers show more enthusiasm with digital media usage for children as opposed to Russian mothers, whom prefer traditional media (TV, books, spoken word, music, etc).
- E-books, mobile apps and online games are more frequently used and popular among male parents, who show heightened enthusiasm with digital potential and childhood development.
- Currently, 30 million of Russian inhabitants are under age 19. For every one child in Russia there are 3 adults.
- More than half of all women have only one child. Almost third of the woman have 2 kids. And 9% doesn't have kids at all.

Infographic: What Does Your Online Repuation Say About You?
07 March 2012
Consumer Data Privacy research conducted by Microsoft shows that the majority of people don't give much thought to the consequences of their various online activities.
Microsoft commissioned research in Canada, Germany, Ireland, Spain, and the United States, and found that while 91 percent of people have done something to manage their online profile, only 44 percent of adults actively think about the long-term consequences their activities have on their online reputation.
The study also said that less than half of the parents surveyed help their children with managing their online presence and reputations.

Trend Watch: Social Profile Pruning
27 February 2012
Profile "pruning" is on the rise. Deleting unwanted friends, comments and photo tags grows in popularity.
Over time, as social networking sites have become a mainstream communications channel in everyday life, profile owners have become more active managers of their profiles and the content that is posted by others in their networks.
According to a new Pew Internet study, two-thirds of profile owners (63%) have deleted people from their networks or friend lists, up from 56% in 2009. Another 44% say they have deleted comments that others have made on their profile, up from just 36% two years prior.
And as photo tagging has become more automated on sites like Facebook, users have become more likely to remove their names from photos that were tagged to identify them; 37% of profile owners have done this, up from 30% in 2009.
Deleting social media comments is part of the reputation management work of being a young adult.
All users have become more likely to delete comments on their profiles over time, but this is especially true of young adults.
It is now the case that 56% of social media users ages 18-29 say they have deleted comments that others have made on their profile, compared with 40% of those ages 30-49, 34% of those ages 50-64 and 26% of social media users ages 65 and older.
In contrast to the gender differences with unfriending, male and female social media users are equally as likely to say that they have deleted comments that others have made on their profile (44% of men and women report this).
The task of removing photo tags is also much more common among young adults.
Whether because there are simply more photos being shared or there is more sensitivity to their content, young adult social media users are the most likely age group to report removal of photo tags.
Fully half of young adult social media users (49%) say they have deleted their name from photos that were tagged to identify them.
That compares to 36% of social media users ages 30-49, 22% of those ages 50-64 and only 16% of those ages 65 and older. As with comments, there are no significant gender differences; male and female users are equally likely to delete photo tags (36% vs. 38%).
Survey: 48% of Parents Believe the Internet is a Good Contribution to Their Children's Lives
12 February 2012
A new online survey conducted by the website ParentPort reveals that, of those parents surveyed whose children watch films at home, 40% had allowed their children to watch a film classified above their age.
The survey of 1,800 respondents from the UK's two largest online parenting communities –Mumsnet and Netmums – reveals the challenges and pressures parents face when it comes to keeping the media their children see age-appropriate.
Of those parents surveyed whose children play video games, a quarter (25%) had allowed their children to play games classified above their age.
Furthermore, 16% of parents surveyed said they had bought their children a device or gadget – such as a games console or MP3 player – which they themselves did not fully understand how to use.
Parental supervision
However, the parents surveyed did not just give into their children's appetite for the media – many also closely supervise what their children see and use.
In fact, 82% of the parents surveyed claimed they always know what films and television programmes their children watch, and 77% said they always or usually know what websites their children visit.
Meanwhile, the survey also uncovers parents' boundaries when it comes to media, with one in eight of the parents surveyed reporting concern that Christmas presents their child had received were inappropriate for their age.
Some reported being worried their youngsters would have unsupervised access to the internet through smartphones and laptops given as gifts. Others cited well-meaning friends and family overstepping the mark – with examples of pre-teens unwrapping presents of 18-rated video games, and under-tens receiving 12-rated DVDs.
Overall, the parents surveyed recognised the contribution the media makes to their children's lives. Over half (52%) of the parents surveyed thought films and DVDs generally played a positive role in their children's lives. Forty-nine per cent cited television as also having a positive effect, and 48% believed the internet also made a good contribution to their children's lives. (via)
Trend Watch: Welcome to Social Entertainment
10 February 2012
Three trends are having a key impact in how consumers are using the internet: the rise of the 'packaged internet', with access through apps rather than browsers; an explosion of professional content and real-time social all contributing to what GlobalWebIndex founder Tom Smith sees as the rise of the social entertainment age.
According to Smith, 'The open browser-based internet has failed to create the economics to deliver professional media business online, as advertising could not demand the premiums needed and consumers are unwilling to pay for content delivered through a browser.'
GlobalWebIndex's free report analyses the current situation and considers the implications for professional media, content producers and brands.

Cold, old and rundown - that is how some of South Dunedin's
residents describe the area and it is often how the area is
perceived by those outside it.
What is not so apparent is the tightness of community, the
positivity of residents and the hope each new generation
holds for a brighter future.
South Dunedin is the most deprived area in Otago, according
to the latest Socioeconomic Deprivation Index, and while
those South Dunedin residents who spoke to the Otago Daily
Times had not heard of the index, its results were
South Dunedin resident Karen Butler (52) said the suburb had
not changed since she was a child.
''All these houses ... have been the same since I was a wee
girl,'' she said.
''There's a lot of poverty in this area.''
She considered herself one of the area's luckier residents
because she had a full-time job and even though she received
the minimum wage, it was more than some did.
''There's a lot of people that don't work,'' she said.
''People don't really have choices.''
Despite the scarcity many of the area's residents face, she
had no concerns about living in the area and the feeling of
community was one of the suburb's redeeming aspects.
It was also why Barry Robson (63) called the area home.
''I love it,'' he said.
While the suburb's residents were not well off financially,
they were ''good neighbours''.
Mr Robson lived on the unemployment benefit, topped up by a
''$2.80 a week disability allowance'' for his missing left
eye, and although he would like a job, he was pragmatic about
his chances.
''I can't get a job, because of my eye,'' he said.
''I have got a couple of flatmates, so we don't really
struggle. We manage to still pay the power bill and the phone
bill. We only just get there. It's not easy, but what do you
When Maria Espie (47) relocated to the area in March last
year, it held the prospect of an affordable and ''decent''
house for her and her family, something her former home town,
Christchurch, did not.
She had found the area to be ''sociable'' and had quickly
made friends.
The area held a lot of potential, but somebody ''just needs
to clean it up''.
Catholic Social Services director Ian Donnelly said while
investment in housing would be part of a solution to South
Dunedin's socioeconomic deprivation, the real key was jobs.
''Meaningful work that gives people a decent income to meet
their basic needs ... that's what needs to be continuously
looked at,'' he said.
About one-third of the South Dunedin-based social services
agency's clients came from the area and while they faced ''a
range of issues'', many of them related to a lack of
meaningful work, he said.
''There is low income [in South Dunedin] and people always
struggle if they haven't got enough to meet their basic needs
and that's what we find.
''People here are doing their very best to cover their rent
and basic costs, feeding their kids and clothing their kids,
but there isn't enough.''
While he did not know where the jobs could come from, ''some
investment in the South Dunedin area ... would help to get
things moving'', he said.
''We are helping people to cope, but it's not always going to
solve the problem.''

Released: Nov 01st, 1996
Running Time: 124
Director: Patrick Collins
Company: Elegant Angel Productions
Cast: Nikki Brantz, Sean Michaels, Kethrin Brut, Baybee Cakes, Rick (I), Simon (I), Santino Lee, Tom Byron, Belinda Bayer, Martin Stone, Suzy Cat, Angelica (I), Roscoe Bowltree, Anita Blonde, Margot
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Certainly hope this doesn't cause Patrick Collins to re-think his generosity, but without doubt, the hottest scene in Sodomania 17 is the one he let his buddy Tom Byron direct. A preview of the new series that the veteran woodsman will helm (Cumback Pussy), the vignette is a blistering three-way between Byron, Sean Michaels and cock-crazed Nikki Brantz, who gets nailed in a d.p. cross-fire, then takes a double hosing like a trooper.
As for the rest of the vid, well, go directly to scene four, in which the appropriately-named Baybee Cakes puts her face on Collins' pecker, then break out the 'ol Wet for Byron's directing debut. And keep the stuff handy for the four-way closer too.

Perfect Pace Picante Sauce
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 30 mins
This was created by using other Pace copycat recipes I found online, except the others didn't come out exactly like the store bought. This recipe makes it just like like the store bought, but much much better! You will never buy Pace again!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 14 ounces petite cut tomatoes
- 14 ounces tomato sauce
- 14 ounces water
- 3 fresh jalapeno peppers
- 1 large yellow onion
- 1⁄4 cup jalapeno juice (from bottled jalapenos) or 1⁄4 cup white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
- 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Bring all ingredients to a boil in a pot.
- Lower heat and simmer for about 30 minutes or until it is the desired thickness.
- (Salsa thickens when it cools.).
- Remove from heat and cool in refrigerator.
- (Suggestion: add 1/3 can of sweet yellow corn during cooking, it makes a great addition).

This is perfect! I have migrated to Australia 5 months ago and the salsa selection here is pitiful (as one might expect). I have been making this recipe non-stop since I found it and my transplanted USA family members and new Aussie friends love it. Thanks so much!!!
I love Pace and this is very good also. I had no jalapeno juice on hand so I used the white vinegar. It turned out having too much of a vinegar taste for my liking, next time I'll use the 1/4 cup jalapeno juice instead and I think all will be well. Thanks for the recipe!
Great recipe! I added a little bit more jalapeno juice, garlic powder and maybe a teaspoon of sugar. I'm going to add a few more peppers next time. So, so good. Thanks for posting.
