Twitter has been expanding the customer service side of its product, with recent additions including a Customer Service settings page for businesses. This should all feel pretty familiar from other websites and customer service interactions, but it could help businesses collect customer information and route requests properly, which in turn could make them more efficient at providing support on Twitter. In a company blog post , Twitter Product Manager Ian Cairns said:Besides Evernote, brands that are already using welcome message and quick replies include Pizza Hut, Airbnb and Spotify. Twitter says businesses can also access these new features through third-party software like Lithium and Sprout Social. When quick replies and welcome messages are used together, businesses can reduce wait times and educate people on the best ways to interact with them.
"While we're a company that makes and sells cars, at the same time we're a developer of mobility services," Tomoyama said. Among the features of the Smart Key Box technology to be piloted with Getaround is the ability to control doors and start engines via a smartphone, Toyota said. TOKYO: Toyota Motor Corp will pilot its new Smart Key Box technology in fleets used by U.S. car-sharing service Getaround next year, stepping up its push to benefit from new mobility services seen by some as a threat to traditional car ownership. U.S. rivals Ford and General Motors have also invested further in mobility technology through tie-ups this year with Amazon and IBM respectively to develop sophisticated on-demand and artificial intelligence-based services in their cars. Toyota's investment follows similar moves this year by rivals including General Motors and Volkswagen as global automakers adapt to the changing face of the sector.

On Monday, Microsoft announced that it was releasing a new scheduling assistant for Outlook on iOS, similar to the scheduling experience on desktop, a blog post said. The 3 big takeaways for TechRepublic readersMicrosoft is releasing a new scheduling assistant for its Outlook mobile app that aims to make it easier for professionals to book meetings with coworkers. The functionality is pretty standard, allowing for users to see their coworker's free times and book meetings accordingly.

Like many of its rivals, Toyota is also getting into the car sharing game. The Japanese giant has announced that it's going to start testing a new keyless car sharing system in 2017 which will enable users to unlock and start the cars with just their smartphones. The way it will work is that users will get codes to access the smart key box inside the cars that are part of the car sharing program. Toyota has teamed up with Getaround for this test which will kick off in San Francisco in January next year. The Smart Key Box is going to play an instrumental role in this keyless car sharing program as it will eliminate the need for users to have access to a physical key in order to unlock and start the car.
And Rwanda's partnership with a Silicon Valley drone startup shows the potential of African nations to shape ICT policies that catalyze innovation with global applications. The list of Rwanda's ICT initiatives goes on. In the case of drone delivery, Rwanda's progressive ICT stance may have already produced an innovation model with advanced economy impact. The government of Rwanda, in partnership with California-based startup Zipline, recently started the world's first national drone delivery program. Rwanda is rolling out its 4G LTE program nationwide and is the highest ranked African country on the Alliance for Affordable Internet's Affordability Index.
These types of preferences are not uncommon, but are a concession by the company — Wish wouldn't offer these terms if it didn't think it was necessary to raise these funds. The company has reportedly previously raised close to $600 million and been valued at $3 billion or more by investors. That means if Wish sells for less than it's valued in this round, the latest investors will get all of their investment back before any earlier investors see a penny. According to the Oct. 24 filing for its parent company ContextLogic, the company has authorised new shares to be sold, although the size of the round, investors, and valuation are not disclosed. A provision in the Delaware filing cites that investors in the current get special liquidation preferences.
The Uber Freight marketplace has soft-launched and is working with a handful of shippers and carriers over the next few months before officially launching early next year. The first product from Uber Freight is a marketplace to connect a shipper with a truck, much like the Uber app connects drivers and riders today. The plan builds on Uber's July acquisition of Otto, a self-driving trucking company that Uber bought for $65 million. To start, the Uber Freight marketplace will eliminate that middle man and offer shippers real-time pricing of what it will cost to move their goods based on supply and demand. Berdinis is betting that Uber's intellectual property and worldwide operations team will make Uber Freight the winner in the "Uber for trucking" space.
For example, the CBS television network has several: CBS, CBS Local, CBS News, and CBS Sports Fantasy. Do you think that the Windows Store has enough big brand name apps to ensure the survival of Windows? So please don't fill this article's discussion area with disparaging comments about the uselessness of Windows Store apps on traditional PCs. In the Tech Insider section of the Business Insider website, I found an article titled For Microsoft Windows, it's do or die. There are a lot of terrific apps in the Windows Store from software developers you've never heard of before.
Those plans have accelerated, and in the four months since it was acquired by Uber, the company has already soft-launched its new trucking business, Uber Freight. Berdinis is betting that Uber's intellectual property and worldwide operations team will make Uber Freight the winner in the "Uber for trucking" space. The plan builds on Uber's acquisition of Otto, a self-driving trucking company that Uber bought in July for $65 million. How it fits into the big picture at UberIf Uber Freight is successful at making the "Uber for trucking," it could serve as a gateway for autonomous vehicles. The Uber Freight marketplace has soft-launched and is working with a handful of shippers and carriers over the next few months before officially launching early next year.

Other new features in this version are text stats on notes and better camera autofocus as well as the perennial bug fixes. Ever since it constrained its free plans, Evernote hasn't been the same darling of note takers that it was before.

Police sketch artist brings unique talents to criminal investigations
WYOMISSING, Pa. - Sometimes, a sketch can be the best clue police have to solve a crime, but getting that composite image requires not just a witness, but a special type of artist.
In Berks County, that role most often rests with Wyomissing police Sgt. William Roecker, who broke down the process for 69 News.
"We use the FBI's facial identification catalog," he said. "There's a section on eyes, a section on nose, ears, shapes of the head, hair, skin irregularities, cheek bones, chins."
Using the catalog, Roecker said he'll sit down with a crime victim or witness and have him or her look through the pages, carefully studying the various facial features.
Based on which options they believe best resemble the suspect, Roecker will start drawing the eyes, then the nose, then the mouth.
"That's called the facial triangle, and that's basically where the identification is going to come from," Roecker told 69 News.
Roecker said his sketches have led to arrests in state and federal crimes. He said he's drawn several composites outside of Berks, including in Lancaster and Lehigh counties.
"The composite is only as good as the recollection of the witness or the victim and how they can relay it back to me when they're looking at the features," Roecker said.
Most recently, Roecker created a sketch of a robber in Sinking Spring. Based on recent averages, he'll likely hand-draw another five or so this year, nearly half the amount he'd create years ago.
Roecker said he was first trained in 1982, and in years since, hand-drawn composite sketching has become somewhat of a dying art. That includes sketching composites of age progression and facial reconstruction, in which he is also trained. Most of his experience, however, involves criminal facial composites.
"I used to do 12 to 15 a year, but that's down pretty much now," he said.
It's a trend resulting from increases in digital programs and video surveillance, but when those methods fail or are unavailable, Roecker can provide his unique, effective talent.
"It's very successful… if the composite is pretty much right on, somebody's going to recognize this person one way or the other. Everybody knows somebody."

|Why does the file count in my index keep increasing?
|Wed, 18 Sep 2002 23:07:44 GMT
Hi all, I always thought that the number of files in a index should be roughly constant, (number_of_fields + 7) ^2 + a few other files. For example, I have 10 fields, it should have 17 files with the extension .f1, 17 with extension .f2 and so on (for a total of 17 extensions). But as I indexed more documents, the file count kept growing, as of now, there are 38 files for each of the extensions Anyone know why this is happening? Does the mergefactor play a role in this, I have it set to the default, 10. Thanks in advance.

Remember those lollipops we liked alot and licked?
I remember licking every bit and saving the sticks?
Remember spending pocket money to get five hot rockets?
Sucking those hot balls until the juice dripped from our lips?
Do you remember candy dots on strips of paper...?
And every flavor of those icecreams?
Remember those lollipops we liked alot and licked?
I remember licking every bit and saving the sticks?
Those times are gone but innocence should be held over.
We are lost in this hectic world
with a monotonous routine
Rewind that innocence and feel its purity
You will definitely know the meaning of life and reality.

nexus 5 LCD problem
Hi guys,
i have just bought nexus 5 and it started showing vertical and horizontal lines on the screen, as if it got broken but i didnt drop it neither made any pressure on it. i think it was defected. i was told the warranty doesnt cover it. the problem is, the phone was 100% defected and now what can i do?
i am material scientist with specialization in fracture behaviour of brittle material, i could study the lcd and prove it was defected. but does it make any sense? please help me, i would appreciate it a lot. thanks for your help.

Re: nexus 5 LCD problem
Welcome to the forums.
I believe that such a fault would certainly be covered by the warranty. Who told you that it did not?

Playing Pretend Blog Tour
Playing Pretend by Juliana Haygert Publication: March 3rd, 2014
New Adult Contemporary Romance
As the Governor's daughter, Charlotte McClain is an expert in playing pretend. High society, the men her mother shoves in her direction and a Pre-Law major are all a part of her perfect pretense. But when she pretends to be a nobody during Spring Break, she meets someone who rocks her world.
Mason Rowell knows heartbreak and Spring Break don't mesh well, so he allows the mysterious Charlotte to seduce him. What should have been a fling, results in something deeper. After Spring Break has long since passed, he moves to Washington to pursue his graduate degree, but what he never expected to find living among the rich and pompous, was the girl who gave him the strength to change and the desire to start anew.
When the guy Charlotte can't forget goes from a sensual memory to temptation in the flesh, her facade is put to the test. If she surrenders to his charms, she risks ruining her mother's perfect career and master plan. Playing pretend is what Charlotte does best, but how long can she pretend she doesn't love the man who made her proud of her true self?

Blog Tour: Dracian Legacy
At seventeen, Ren Pernell knows the meaning of tragedy.
But then, a year after losing her parents, Axel Knight walks through the door and changes everything. Strange creatures start to appear, her best friend suddenly finds her irresistible, and an undeniable, unexplainable bond with Axel threatens to drive her insane. She knows he's the key. There's something he's not sharing, and she's determined to find out.
Demanding answers, she finally learns the truth: everything she ever believed is an illusion. Caught in a centuries-old blood feud between races she never knew existed, Ren discovers her true destiny. She's the chosen one, the Echo, preordained to end the bloodshed.
There's just one catch–in order to save those she loves and a homeland she's never seen, she'll have to die.
With the clock running out, she'll have to navigate a new world of betrayal, lies and deceit. If she can forgive, finding love even in the darkest places, she just might be able to escape the prophecy. But how much is she willing to sacrifice for a cause she didn't know she was part of? And what will it take for her to be free?

Author Spotlight: S.J. Pajonas
Welcome to my blog, S. J. Pajonas!
Nicknames: Well, my full name is Stephanie though I use my initials for writing the books. I go by Steph mostly. My husband sometimes calls me "Scifi Stephie" when he wants to yank my chain, but that's about it. I guess I'm not very nickname-able!
Where do you live: In northern New Jersey. We moved here from Brooklyn where I lived for 11 years. I still love Brooklyn and miss it sometimes. What I don't miss are my screaming neighbors, having to move my car every other day, and the lack of outdoor space for my kids.
Your favorite dessert: Anything chocolate. I'm not too picky ;)
Your favorite TV series: Hmmm, tough one. I still think Star Trek: The Next Generation was pretty darned perfect. Since then I have loved Star Trek: Voyager, Stargate SG1 and Atlantis, Battlestar Galactica (which may be tops), and LOST. As you can see, I like long series with wide-sweeping storylines and complex characters. Most recently I have loved Breaking Bad and Homeland, so I do stray out from scifi and fantasy.
Last book you read: Butterman (Time) Travel by PK Hrezo. I love it so far and I'm still reading it in between blog post writing and revisions on my own books. It sometimes takes me a while to read anything for fun.
Last movie you watched: Star Trek Into Darkness. This was a rewatch. We really loved it.
Last song (or album) you bought: I bought two Neutral Milk Hotel albums that I didn't have for some crazy reason!
A book/series you could read over and over again: I have read the Ender series (Orson Scott Card) several times and the Foundation and Robot series (Isaac Asimov) several times. But I've also read the Anne of Green Gables series and Harry Potter series many times too, so I'm not just stuck on science fiction.
Coke or pepsi? Coke. Pepsi is the devil.
Day or night? Day. I like to sleep at night!
Pen or pencil? Pencil. Mechanical. Preferably Japanese.
Summer or winter? Summer, hands down. I need a winter home in Brazil. Can you help me out on that?
Cat or dog? Dog. I'm actually allergic to both, but I like dogs, and there's the chance in my future of owning a hypoallergenic dog.
Tea or coffee? Tea now. I love coffee and miss it, but it did horrible things to my stomach. Sadness.
Plotter or pantser? Pantster. Occasionally, I'll write out a paragraph or two of plot ideas before starting a project but that's about it.
When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer? Oh, I have no idea. I wanted to be an astronaut FOREVER, and if I were given the chance to go into space, I'd take it in a heartbeat. I've been an avid reader all my life and have always had a good grasp of the English language and its quirky grammar rules. I think I decided I really wanted to write when I was in college. I was taking screenwriting classes and wanted to go on into that career path. But then I graduated, had an extreme amount of debt, and realized I couldn't afford grad school. So I learned how to build websites. I've been designing and building websites for the past 15 years. It paid the bills, and I'm so happy to have all that knowledge now as a self-publisher. I no longer build websites for a living (I'm a stay-at-home mom) but I use my skills to build my blog and other things for my books.
What are you working on now? More Nogiku books and a contemporary romance book that I absolutely adore. It's also a part of a series of stand-alone books (no cliffhangers and each one is its own story) so expect both contemporary and science fiction romances from me in the future.
If you decided not to be a writer, what would your other dream job be? Why? Go back two questions and you have your answer! I really wish there was a way for civilians to easily get into space. That's what I would do. I've always dreamt of a career in space. I want to look down on the world from above. That just seems mind-blowing and magical.
What is the scariest thing you've ever done in your life? Quit my fantastic job at HBO to be a stay at home mom. Really. Scariest thing I've ever done. It was a six-figure salary. Gulp.
What is one talent that you're hopeless at, but you wish you had? Whistling. I can't whistle!! Why? I have no idea. I've tried my whole life and can't do it. I really wish I could. My husband is a great whistler. I always sigh when he starts up.
What is one trait or physical characteristic that you are proud of/love about yourself? I'm extremely persistent. If I want something and there's a way to get it, I get it. Most of my friends tell me they admire how I make goals and I go out and accomplish them. To not do that? To be stagnant? That's not me. I have fears of rejection and yet I still try. If someone were to tell me I can't do something, it only makes me try harder. I push the naysayers aside. And if a friend wants something and needs my help, I give it if I'm able to. I'm extremely loyal.
Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers? This is the same advice I give everywhere :) Find a method that works for you and stick with it. If you outline, keep outlining. If you can only write in coffee shops, take the time to go to one. I am a pantster and there is no breaking me of it. It works for me and what works for one author does not always work for another. Concentrate on your own methods and definitely do not try to tell someone else that their method is "wrong." Whatever gets the words onto the page!
Removed (The Nogiku series #1)
by SJ Pajonas
Genre: Science Fiction Romance, Post-apocalyptic
Age category: New Adult
Release Date: September 11, 2013
Duty knows no family. Love has no price. Secrets can cost you everything. Twenty-year-old Sanaa Griffin, a sweet and smart half-Japanese girl, is about to get more than she bargained for when she wishes for love and excitement on New Year's Eve 3103. Mark Sakai, who knows more about her than any stranger should, thinks Sanaa is the perfect person to spy on the heads of the three biggest Japanese clan leaders in Nishikyo. He wants her to gather enough evidence to keep them from going to war when they land on Earth's colonization planet, Yusei. Nishikyo, built by the Japanese 300 years ago to house the rest of mankind, is failing and everyone is preparing to leave. Sakai has known Sanaa's family all her life but she knows nothing of him! And despite all the time they spend together, he keeps his distance from her. Then one day, he brings her to Jiro, his nephew, to learn sword fighting, and it changes her life irrevocably. Between falling in love with Jiro and the information she is gathering on the clans, Sanaa realizes Sakai is holding back secrets about her family and her deceased parents, secrets as to why she was chosen for this job, and learning the truth puts her and all of Nishikyo in danger.

**Contains spoilers for those who have not read REMOVED (Book 1)
Left in the desert to recuperate from her injuries, Sanaa Itami paces the floors and contemplates her mistakes.

While Nishikyo recovers from the earthquake, negotiations for Sanaa's eventual rule on Yusei continue. New allies must be made, new friendships brokered, new skills acquired — at all costs. Life at the top of the chain is complicated and lonely, though. With relations in Sakai clan rocky and uncertain, Sanaa must learn to trust others again more than she's willing. Who amongst the clans is left holding a grudge? And will the new family Sanaa has found with Jiro support or betray her? From Nishikyo to Yusei, RELEASED, Book TWO of the Nogiku Series, is the second book in a captivating New Adult post-apocalyptic romance series that harnesses the cultures and traditions of Japan and sweeps them into the future between Earth and a faraway land.

Washington, June 3 : Easy access to a wide variety of media increases a child''s risk for numerous health issues, such as obesity, eating disorders, drug use and early sexual activity, says a U. S. expert.
Victor C. Strasburger of the University of New Mexico School of Medicine in Albuquerque, says that on average, American children and teens spend more than six hours a day with media such as TV, computers, Internet, video games and VCR or DVD players -- more time than they spend per day receiving formal classroom instruction.
All this media access affects a variety of health issues, he said.
"The media are not the leading cause of any paediatric health problem in the United States, but they do make a substantial contribution to many health problems," says Strasburger.
He recommends that parents, teachers and clinicians need to be educated about these connections, and student education about media should be mandatory in schools.
"Parents have to change the way their children access the media -- not permitting TV sets or Internet connections in the child''s bedroom, limiting entertainment screen time to less than two hours per day, and co-viewing with their children and adolescents. Research has shown that media effects are magnified significantly when there is a TV set in the child''s or adolescent''s bedroom," says Strasburger.
The study is published in the June 3 issue of JAMA, a theme issue on child and adolescent health. (ANI)

The Café at The Ritz-Carlton Buckhead Ratings and Reviews
Our server Amanda was awesome. I wish I could say the same for the food. I had a pasta dish that was very dense and needed something to cut the texture. My wife just had a salad and baked potato. The baked potato was old and had been microwaved to heat it. The menu is very limited and does not offer a very good range of choices. I expected more from a Ritz Carlton.
The food was great!! The shrimp tortellini was amazing!
The service lacked a lot. Before dinner we went to the lounge we had to flag down three waitresses to get service. Once seated at the café we had completed our starter course before the drinks that we ordered as soon as we sat down were delivered to the table. While the quality of the food was what I expect from a Ritz The service was incredibly dissatisfying.
This was my second time for the Ritz Christmas buffet, although I have gone to the Sunday buffet brunch several times. As usual the Ritz was beautifully decorated for Christmas and the buffet tables were groaning. Seafood and other special sections, such as waffle station and omelet station, were great. However, everyone in my party missed the ham that is usually at a carving station. Pork belly was just not an adequate substitute--very fat. Ham is expected at Christmas, so please listen, Ritz. The cost plus 20% (their added tip) is extravagant but the Ritz buffet, especially the Christmas one where the cost is upped around 25%, is for special occasions. A glass of champagne should go with such a cost. However, for a very special occasion, they earn the name of "Ritzy." I mustn't forget the service as it was, as always, impeccable. So sorry not to have Mundy in our area but he did come over to say hello. Mundy is truly an asset to the Ritz service team.
My daughter and I planned this Breakfast event to celebrate my wife's 65th birthday. The Cafe was the perfect venue for this event. Bright room, well decorated, staff extremely frienfly and the food was great. We were able to take our time and enjoy the location and the atmosphere in addition to the food. Great place to celebrate a special occasion, especially on a week day (Friday morning). They even gave my wife a gift and a special dessert treat. We had a great time.
We usually have a family dinner at the cafe at least once or twice a year when staying at the hotel and have found the staff to be consistently attentive and helpful and the food very good with a limited but comprehensive menu. We love that they also offer a kid's menu and good wines by the glass. This time we met the chef, who was lovely. We understand the hotel is renovating the restaraunt and making some changes early next year and look forward to seeing what comes next.
The brunch is fabulous. The service is just as great. This is our second time going to the brunch. We go once in awhile for special occasions as it's a little pricey buy worth it for some of the items (crab claws, salmon, etc). One thing that we had a problem with this time was that the crab claws were frozen. They were sticking to the ice they were on & breaking in pieces. Then what we had on our plate, once thawed, left a pool of water. A bit of a disappointment seeing that one of the reasons we go is for the claws.
Went for the Ritz experience but found fellow diners under-dressed for the occasion (Thanksgiving) . Not the fashion police here, but really, couldn't you wear something besides jeans? Only saw one elegant woman reminded me of what Ritz used to draw. Perhaps the hotel has changed its demographics. Previous Thanksgivings (3) were more special.
The reservation representative could not have been sweeter or accommodating. Made me feel valued as a customer. In that category, the hotel shone.
Food was Excellent and so well presented.
Decorations were wonderful.
Server should have pointed out the 20% gratuity was included as the Bill had a place open for TIP.
OVERPRICED ($125/person) NOT a good value
Overall, not the special experience I expected.
The food and champagne were delicious. However, the service was absolutely terrible. The restaurant was not busy, so I couldn't understand how it took 15 minutes for a server to greet us and ask for drink orders. We waited 20 minutes for two bowls of soup as this made up our entire order. Our server never came back to the table after dropping off our soup to see how we were doing. After sitting for another 25 minutes with no offer to refill our drinks we decided to lleave. While I feel that the Ritz has always had superior service, today was not impressive.
We are glad we experienced the Sunday brunch but we didn't think that the brunch was worth the high cost. We had to wait to be seated even though we made reservations. It was more chaotic than we thought it would be. The seating was uncomfortable because two people were in booth seating and we had to move the table every time they wanted to get out. The breakfast food was just ordinary, nothing special. The seafood was very good. The lobster mack and cheese was excellent. The salmon was good. The nicest thing was they brought a special desert for a birthday girl and a gift candle. Now that we have been there, we would not return.
The Cafe is such an enigma: very good food, great brunch but the atmosphere is weather beaten and desperately in need of an update. The service is always attentive and friendly without being ostentatious. The menu is interesting, the pours are good but I keep thinking that Jack Nicholson will limp by carrying a bloody ax.
The food and service and a café restaurant and lounge is wonderful. We were reluctant to eat there because of the many find restaurants in Atlanta. However, it is as good as other restaurants, the prices are extremely reasonable if not less than other find restaurants. I believe this is a well-kept secret in Atlanta. It's so nice to have staff that will do anything for you and a kitchen that can accommodate special requests.
There were a few notable things which kept this restaurant from being an amazing place to dine: shells in my date's lobster risotto, a general lack of awareness by our server (our plates were near empty with our forks turned over and he didn't clear them for approximately ten minutes...), and the bananas foster bread pudding was overly saturated with rum--it was all you could taste. But my entrée was well done, the presentation for both plates was executed well, and the staff was very pleasant!
We choose The Cafe for our special occasions throughout the year. Amanda is absolutely wonderful! She remembers us each time we visit and strives to make our visits the best experience every time. Amanda is knowledgeable about the wines offering great suggestions from your menu. The Ritz is very fortunate to have such a wonderful asset as Amanda. We also send our compliments to Chef Michelle. We are never disappointed with the creations from her kitchen!
I worked at The Ritz-Carlton in Dana Point and I am proud that The Ritz-Carlton Buckhead continues to show pride in making the moments in our lives memorable.

Light In The Attic
T.O.B.E. / At Seattle's Doubletree Inn 2LP
↳ jazz funk cult classics
I can honestly say that this reissue trumps the original. If you're a nerdus, you know how hard it is to track down T.O.B.E. and its digger classic "Jesus Christ Superstar Medley" (as sampled by The Coup). However, you also get OBE's other sought after album At Seattle's Doubletree In (and its equally classic rendition of "Hey Jude") all in one thick, matte gatefold! Light In The Attic maintained a sharp eye to detail here, reproducing the original front and back cover art in this ingenious flip gatefold design. In addition, they added all new insert linear notes inserts and have included a download card with the full albums and 3 previously unreleased bonus tracks. If that wasn't enough, there's only 1000 copies made. Highly Recommended.

Ecology of Marine Sediments by John S. Gray
Book DescriptionMarine sediments provide the largest habitat on planet earth, yet knowledge of the structure and function of their flora and fauna continues to be poorly described in current textbooks. This concise, readable introduction to benthic ecology builds upon the strengths of the previous edition but has been thoroughly revised throughout to incorporate the new technologies and methods that have allowed a rapid and ongoing development of the field. It explores the relationship between community structure and function, and the selection of global examples ensures an international appeal and relevance. The economic value of marine sediments increases daily, reflected in the text with a new emphasis on pollution, climate change, conservation, and management.

Months after a court struck down Lousiana Gov. Bobby Jindal's (R) school voucher program, the Republican star is suffering another major judicial blow to his education agenda. On Monday, a Baton Rouge judge threw out Jindal's major education-reform package, reports the Associated Press.
Israel's Haredi Schools Get Standardized Testing? As YNet reports, Israel's ultra-Orthodox religious schools, which receive public money, will have to take standardized tests -- as ordered by the Supreme Court. A judge said that such schools "should start taking things seriously, or face the consequences." Why, you ask, do I bring you news from across the planet? It's an interesting parallel to an ongoing debate on our own soil. In the U.S., there has been much talk over whether private schools that receive public-school vouchers or tax credits should be held to the same standards as their public school peers. Obviously the structure is different, and in Israel there's no public-private distinction between the schools. But it's still fascinating to watch.
Walker-Style Voucher Fight? Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker first tangled with his state's teachers union when he signed a bill that upended collective bargaining. Now he's at it again, and this time, the fight is over school vouchers. "The debate over Walker's public education funding proposal and desire to grow alternatives such as private school vouchers is likely to be one of the fiercest in the Statehouse this year, even dividing Republicans who control the Legislature," the Associated Press reports.
Rhee-grets, She Has A Few? Former Washington, D.C. schools chancellor Michelle Rhee is out with a new memoir this week (called "Radical"), and she's making the talk show rounds to promote it. Yesterday, she told George Stephanopolous on "This Week" that maybe she shouldn't have fired that principal on TV. "My style is very deliberative and very focused on doing what's right for kids. And so I wouldn't change that so much," Rhee said. "Should I have fired ineffective principals? Absolutely. Should I have done so on national TV? Probably not." Here's a Times interview, in which she says she regrets initially not taking test security questions seriously. Also, Rhee is scheduled to be on The Daily Show tonight, so that should be fun!
Vouchers To Grow In Ohio? In Ohio, Gov. John Kasich's (R) budget plan would reduce funding gaps between wealthy and poor public school districts and also create a new voucher program, reports the Columbus Dispatch. The new vouchers would give about $4,250 a year toward private-school tuition to any kindergartener whose family is making less than 200 percent of the poverty line. The next year, Kasich would expand the program to include first graders. While an existing scholarship plan currently does something similar for 15,702 students, a full 1.8 million students would qualify for the new plan's income requirements The budget plan includes a 6 percent overall school funding increase the following year, and then 3.2 percent more the next year.

Recently, on Triablogue, John Bugay posted a query using Hans Küng as his primary source for challenging infallibility – as if a dissident "theologian" is a good place to start from. I guess from a Protestant perspective, a dissident Catholic is "better" than an orthodox one, but even Bugay refers to Küng as a "renegade Roman Catholic theologian."
According to Bugay,
"Küng says he is not writing to destroy, but if ever there was a need for destruction, it is here. Wrong-headed from the start, both "papal infallibility" and "the papacy" both need to be headed toward "the ash-heap of history". If anyone can muddy the waters right now (further than they have been muddied), it will be "Pope Francis"."
In short, Küng is writing to destroy. The link there takes you to another Triablogue article on Papal Infallibility, also written by Bugay and while using another source, Küng wrote the introduction to that source – already opening it to the question of its orthodoxy. That article opens with a discussion of the "Johannine Comma" and goes into a discussion about later popes overturning decisions by earlier popes.
It is apparent that Bugay (and perhaps his sources) is oblivious to the fact that not EVERYTHING decreed by a pope is infallible! The fact of the matter is, VERY FEW decrees are actually considered to be infallible. Yes, such a decree is binding upon all faithful Catholics – but again, a non-infallible decree can be (and several have been) overturned.
My response to the first article I cited is quite simple and straightforward:
Something which is bound in heaven, by its very nature, is then infallible – for nothing fallible could be "bound" in heaven. If Peter, and thus his successors, has this authority, then Bugay's point is moot. If Peter has not this authority, then Matthew 16:18-19 is a lie. You can't have it both ways.
That response, if it is approved, was also posted to the original article on Triablogue (slightly paraphrased here because I did not copy it before I submitted it). The bottom line is, if the Bible is the true and final authority for Bugay, then his objections to infallibility are pure folly and even scandalous in opposing the Word of God.
What is Passion Sunday?
Prior to the 1970 Mass, often referred to as the Novus Ordo Missae, the liturgical year included Passion Sunday. This was the day all the statues and holy images were veiled in purple. The tradition is not prohibited today – but not nearly as widely practiced as it used to be. The readings for Mass became more focused on the discord between Jesus and the Jews and upon the Passion of our Lord.
The Epistle:
In the Novus Ordo, or Ordinary Rite, Passion Sunday is combined with Palm Sunday. In a way, this is a bit tragic, as Palm Sunday, though the start of Passion Week, is a day of celebration and praising the Messiah's entrance into Jerusalem.
As for me and my family, we adhere to the tradition of covering all statues and pictures of Jesus and the Saints on Passion Sunday – and they are removed after the First Mass of Easter Sunday (the removal of the veils is actually part of the Easter Vigil – which takes us into the First Mass of Easter).
Last Sunday, where we heard the Gospel message about the Transfiguration, the sermon I heard was simply wonderful. I was speaking to someone recently about the Transfiguration, and they thought I was talking about the bread and wine becoming the body, blood, soul and divinity of Christ in the Eucharist. While Fr. spoke on a variety of topics, the one which stood out for me the most was very catechetical. Most who read this blog profess to be Christians, but what does that really mean? What does it entail to call yourself a Christian? Do you know the difference between transubstantiation and the Transfiguration? Is being a Christian something you "put on" on Sundays and "take off" Monday through Saturday? How much time do you spend in building your relationship with Jesus Christ? Many seem to have the attitude that while the "believe" in Jesus Christ, they don't want that to get in the way of their life and fun. "Jesus is just alright with me," as sung by the Doobie Brothers, seems to sum it up – Jesus is "just alright." He doesn't reign supreme in most of our lives. How comfortable will you be, standing in front of the Judgment Seat when how much time you spent to know Him, love Him and serve Him is exposed and judged? Get to know Him, because the more you know Him, the more you can love Him.
I am reminded of the simplicity and beauty of the Baltimore Catechism.
Q. 150. Why did God make you?
A. God made me to know Him, to love Him, and to serve Him in this world, and to be happy with Him forever in the next.
Q. 151. Why is it necessary to know God?
A. It is necessary to know God because without knowing Him we cannot love Him; and without loving Him we cannot be saved. We should know Him because He is infinitely true; love Him because He is infinitely beautiful; and serve Him because He is infinitely good.
I know that my children grew up with these questions and answers memorized, but now that they are grown – I am asking them (and I primarily write this article for THEM) do you love God? What do you do to get to know Him better? If you wish to be happy with Him forever in the next life, you have to get to know Him in this life, and love Him and serve Him. What does that mean to you? Can you do more? I know I can. We all must strive to continue to grow in Him, to know Him and love Him and serve Him. If you don't have time for Him – how do you think that will fly when He's planning an eternity for you? Giving God your time and worship shows how much you love Him. Putting God FIRST in your life will result in all your other concerns working out (Matt. 6:33). I ask myself the same questions – and I know the there is more I can do and I know there are times when I fail.
If you're stuck in a rut, or routine – then you're not working on your relationship with God – or at least not working hard enough. What more can you do? What more can I do?
"A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not the gospel," the Pope told journalists who asked his opinion on Trump's proposals to halt illegal immigration.
Trump immediately fired back, calling Francis' comments "disgraceful.""No leader, especially a religious leader, should have the right to question another man's religion or faith," he said in statement. Trump added that the government in Mexico, where Francis spent the past five days, has "made many disparaging remarks about me to the Pope." (qtd. from http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/18/politics/pope-francis-trump-christian-wall/index.html)
And that wall totally surrounds the Vatican City/State:
If walls make someone "not Christian" then should we be expecting the Vatican to tear down THEIR wall? OR – do we believe that "wall" provides a level of security for the pope and the "nation" which is the Vatican? Common sense points to the latter.
Now, how about what Mr. Trump said? "No leader, especially a religious leader, should have the right to question another man's religion or faith." Well, we need to remind Mr. Trump, "freedom of speech" is something he will be sworn to defend and uphold if he is elected president. The pope, or any leader, religious or otherwise, has the "right" to question whatsoever they choose to question. The leader of the largest Christian organization on Earth certainly has the "right" to offer his opinion on how Christian, or lack thereof, another is. From the Christian perspective, a man is justified (or judged) according to his faith which is shown through his works. (James 2:22-24) So, in Trump's defense, he has not yet built a wall nor has he implemented any sort of immigration reform – when and IF he does (IF he is elected) THEN we'll have something to judge. Back to the point of this paragraph – the pope certainly DOES have the "right" to say or question anything he chooses – especially if we base that upon the United States Constitution and Amendments.
Vatican spokesman, Fr. Federico Lombardi said: "the pope's comments, which were denounced by Trump, were simply an affirmation of his longstanding belief that migrants should be helped and welcomed rather than shut off behind walls.'This wasn't in any way a personal attack, nor an indication of who to vote for,' Lombardi said.'The Pope has clearly said he didn't want to get involved in the electoral campaign in the US, and also said that he said what he said on the basis of what he was told [about Trump], hence giving him the benefit of the doubt.'The Pope was great. He made a beautiful statement this morning,' he told a capacity crowd at the Myrtle Beach Sports Center, 'They had him convinced that illegal immigration is, like, a wonderful thing!' Trump exclaimed, referring to Mexico's government.

Those pesky xenomorphs from the "Alien" series are coming back. Again. Some more.
Ridley Scott, director of the 1979 original, has signed on with 20th Century Fox to create a prequel to the series. His company Scott Free will also produce the film.
See pictures of "Alien's" Sigourney Weaver and other sci-fi hotties.
You'd be right in wondering, "Weren't the 'Alien vs. Predator' movies prequels?" You are correct, sort of: Those movies introduced xenomorphs to Earthlings well before the timeline put forth by the "Alien" movies.
But seriously, though the monsters we see in the first movie come from a very inhuman source, the events of 1986's "Aliens" hint that the Weyland-Yutani Corporation knew of the xenomorph's existence even sending the crew of the Nostromo to investigate.
Ahem. Not that we've practically memorized the first two movies or anything.
There's no word yet on a plot, or who will star.

Phone was charged last night, and completely blacked out this morning. I removed battery a few times, but no response. HELP! How can I at least forward my number to another phone until I get it fixed?
Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.

Your mobile service provider could do that for you...but only if you ring them up and ask them.
Good luck and let us know!
