Their main evidence for this discovery is that nationwide retailers like Target, Old Navy (which caters to teens, not older women) and Hot Topic are now offering clothes for fat women? Which has been going on for...some time?
The entire article by Ruth la Ferla is filled with snobbish condescension like this:
The woman of size, as she is euphemistically known, "still wants to wear the same clothes as her slimmer counterparts," he added.
Euphemistically for what? "Disgusting fatass"? This comment is odd considering that la Ferla does everything she can to avoid calling women "large" or "fat" : "glamorously curvy", "round-bodied"
Also bizarre is the emphasis on K-Mart as the face of fat fashion:
"I've noticed lately that they are trying to make big sizes more into style," said Kathy Salinas, as she considered a zebra-striped Piper & Blue tunic at a Kmart in downtown Manhattan this week. "You see that at regular stores, not just the plus-size stores, and that's a good thing."
Nothing against K-Mart - I occasionally shop there and even bought a $5 scarf there last week - but it has never been a hot spot for fashion. K-Mart clothes are by definition discount and downmarket, and it is the only retailer in the article mentioned multiple times. La Ferla could have focused on Target, or Torrid, or another retailer with a reputation for putting out stylish clothes for all - but chose to focus on a store known not at all for its stylish clothing. This subtle framing reinforces the idea that fat women are undiscriminating, sloppy, and at the low end of the fashion spectrum - even in an article that's specifically about fat style.
Still, it's only obtuse and mildly insulting until the very end. There's a curt nod to fat acceptance:
More than tokenism, such fashion and media tactics seem born of a conviction that larger young women have become more self-accepting. "They are inclined to show off the parts of their bodies they love," said Ms. Sack, the Chicago retailer. Pushing the trend is a broad movement of fat acceptance among academics, anti-bias activists and some psychologists. "It's important to reclaim 'fat' as a descriptive, as even something positive," argued Ms. Maribona of Fat Fancy.But such forward thinking is immediately regulated with a healthy serving of guilt and shame:
But others point to serious health consequences of being overweight. Andrea Marks, a specialist in adolescent medicine in Manhattan, suspects that "the vast majority of overweight girls are not so happy." Apparent self-acceptance, she added, may be a cover for defiance or resignation.So, fat girls who dare to like themselves are faking it - and if their outrageous self-love is genuine, they should wake up and realize how unhealthy they are. How is this kind of health moralizing acceptable in an article about fashion? Is there no space in the mainstream media where fat women can be discussed without being pathologized and degraded?
Even in article that's purportedly fat-positive, about how large young women (like myself) are fashionable and beautiful (as if we ever weren't), the mainstream media feels a need to reinforce shame and police our bodies.

'That lack of success on the ice, coupled with the ownership issue, has done nothing to help the team sell season tickets this summer. Katzman reports Canadian renewals are at 82 per cent while U.S. renewals are at 78 per cent. Last season, Canadians accounted for about 1,000 of the Sabres 8,400 season tickets. The league average for season tickets is in the 10,500 range.'

Google 'nanny cam' will track deforestation
GRN Reports:
Google will make it easier for companies like Wal-Mart, Unilever and Nestle to track whether suppliers are destroying forests when it unveils a real-time deforestation mapping tool Thursday in DC. The tool will show deforestation as its happening — in detail close enough to show logging roads and tree stands. Bloomberg's Megan Hughes reports.

What does the Latin inscription on the middle gable of Copley Hall mean?
This large inscription reads: Moribus Antiquis Res Stat Loyolaea Virisque, which has been translated as: Loyola's Fortune Still May Hope To Thrive, If Men and Mold Like Those of Old Survive. Copley Hall, along with the White-Gravenor Building, has been described as a "sermon in stone" because of the Catholic and Jesuit symbolism of its external architectural details. These details include, on the south gable, the family crest of St. Ignatius Loyola (founder of the Society of Jesus), the lily of the seal of the University of Paris where he was educated, the seal of the Society of Jesus and, to the right of the main entrance, a shield bearing the coat-of-arms of John Carroll. The Hall is the namesake of Thomas Copley, S.]., who embarked for Maryland in 1637 and hoped to found a college as early as 1640.

I finally got around to doing the mite drop count today and am glad to report no mites were found. I guess I will treat with Fumigilin B, Menthol, honey B healthy and skip the asistan strips this fall. One side note, after reading several posts about using very little smoke during inspections I decided to give it a try. A couple of puffs at the front entrance and one under the cover. Big mistake, when I pulled the first frame I had some very unhappy bees, thankfully no stings due to protective clothing. I won't be doing that again.
Speaking of medication. I have yet to see anybody on the forum mention using terramycin, fumigillin or menthol. Does anybody use this stuff? If not, then how do you protect your bees from foulbrood, nosema or tracheal mites

The Black Eyed Peas
The group's earliest connections go back to the early '90s, when high schoolers will.i.am (William James Adams Jr.) and apl.de.ap (Allan Pineda Lindo Jr.) were part of Tribal Nation, a breakdancing crew. Eventually the pair focused more on music and split off on their own as Atban Klann, their esoteric name an acronym for A Tribe Beyond a Nation. Eazy-E's Ruthless Records signed the group in 1992, but many in the Ruthless camp were puzzled by the group and the enthusiasm of Eazy, who had no problem reconciling his own gangsta style with the affable, peace-minded spirit of Atban. Although an album was recorded, Ruthless shelved it, unsure how to market a group whose style wasn't dependent on violent braggadocio like that of N.W.A.
The death of Eazy-E in 1995 signaled the end of any further deals with Ruthless. Undaunted by the experience, will.i.am and apl.de.ap recruited another dancer/MC, Taboo (Jaime Luis Gómez), and reappeared as the Black Eyed Peas. BEP began playing shows around their native L.A., impressing hip-hop fans with their mike skills and dazzling them with their footwork as well. In 1998 their debut, Behind the Front, was released on the Interscope label to critical acclaim -- not only for the trio of MCs, but also for their live band and backing vocalist Kim Hill. It was a modest commercial success, but it did not leave much of an impact, peaking at number 129 on the Billboard 200. BEP's 2000-issued sophomore release, Bridging the Gap, featured guest appearances from Jurassic 5's Chali 2na, De La Soul, and Macy Gray. "Request Line," a single that reached number two on Billboard's rap chart, helped the album perform significantly better than the debut.
A corner was turned soon after the addition of Fergie (Stacy Ann Ferguson). Formerly featured on the television program Kids Incorporated and a member of Wild Orchid (a late-'90s all-woman trio pitched somewhere between Lisa Stansfield and En Vogue), she replaced Kim Hill and took on a prominent role with her confident, forthright vocals. BEP's first album with Fergie, 2003's Elephunk, stormed the Top 40 with three singles -- "Where Is the Love?" (a Top Ten hit), "Hey Mama," and "Let's Get It Started." Two years later, the quartet returned with Monkey Business, which pushed BEP into the pop stratosphere courtesy of the hit singles "Don't Phunk with My Heart" and "My Humps." In the U.S., it went triple platinum. Fergie released a solo album, Dutchess, the following year. It was no slouch either, as it racked up three number one singles. The album was executive produced by will.i.am -- by that point an in-demand producer for the likes of Kelis, Diddy, John Legend, Ciara, and Nas -- who reentered the solo game with the 2007 album Songs About Girls. Technically his third solo project, it followed a pair of adventurous, low-key affairs issued on the BBE label earlier in the decade.
After the hiatus, the Black Eyed Peas announced their return in March 2009 with "Boom Boom Pow," the first of three number one singles -- which, together, topped the charts for half of the entire year -- featured on The E.N.D. (Energy Never Dies), an album released that June. They quickly followed it up, issuing The Beginning the following year. Despite a boost from Oprah, who selected the album as one of The Oprah Winfrey Show's Favorite Things for 2010, as well as a Top Ten debut, The Beginning didn't sell nearly as many copies as the group's previous work. ~ Andy Kellman & Wade Kergan

After a wild Week 1,the NFL's second week has gained intrigue, especially in the virtual atmosphere. Ahead we check out sleepers for Week 2, because regardless of your first game's result the upcoming matchup can change the complexion of your season. Beginning 2-0 is great, and it obviously helps getting ahead early in the playoff picture. That said, avoiding an 0-2 start and getting to 1-1 drastically helps in the grand scheme of things. Let's take a quick look at this week's sleepers. Carolina Panthers Defense (at Bills) Against one of pro football's most balanced offenses (Seattle), the Panthers limited Russell Wilson to just one passing score. Despite his 320 passing yards and 75.7 completion percentage, Carolina stuffed Marshawn Lynch and made the Seahawks one-dimensional. Traveling to the Buffalo Bills this week, the Cats face a rookie signal-caller in EJ Manuel who did perform well against the Patriots in Week 1. Unlike New England, though, Carolina fields a better pass rush and a better front seven to stop the run. As a result, expect the Panthers to blitz often and isolate Buffalo's ground game to put Manuel in unfavorable situations. Tyler Eifert: TE, Bengals (vs. Steelers) In a sold Week 1 showing, Cincinnati's rookie tight end Tyler Eifert caught five passes for 47 yards. That was the second-most for the Bengals receiving targets against Chicago. And in PPR leagues, the rookie will be solid with A.J. Green and fellow tight end Jermaine Gresham drawing attention. This week, Eifert and co. host the 0-1 Pittsburgh Steelers. Even with a defense that still features Troy Polamalu, Pittsburgh only recorded one sack and didn't force a turnovers in a home loss to Tennessee in Week 1. Given that Cincy possesses a much more explosive offense than the Titans, expect Eifert to help Andy Dalton stretch the field on Monday night. Michael Floyd: WR, Cardinals (vs. Lions) Arizona's offense got a strong boost from Carson Palmer's acquisition. Palmer threw for 327 passing yards, 82 of which went to second-year man Michael Floyd. The Notre Dame product also caught four passes on six targets. Floyd stepped up nicely against the Rams and this week the Cardinals face a weaker pass defense. Detroit wasn't challenged in Week 1, mainly because they faced the Vikings and quarterback Christian Ponder has yet to develop a threatening aerial assault. But, when you put Palmer under center with Larry Fitzgerald, Floyd and Andre Roberts out wide, and the Lions will have their hands full in Week 2.

By Richard Clarke
Thierry Henry believes Arsenal should keep Arsène Wenger as manager "for life".
The striker enjoyed eight highly-successful years in North London under the tutelage of the 61-year-old Frenchman and returns this weekend with New York Red Bulls for the Emirates Cup.
Henry now describes his relationship with the Club as "just a fan" and, as such, disagrees strongly with some of the criticism that has been directed at his former manager last season.
"I know some people had a go at Arsène recently," said Henry. "I don't know when it is going to happen but we all know that one day he is going to have to stop or go.
"But the boss changed the face of the Club and, for me, I would keep Arsène for life. I know he got a bit of stick recently but hopefully they can change that this year.
"They were close enough to win it but they didn't. In football, you get judged on what you win. [People] will realise what Arsène was all about the day that he stops."
Meanwhile Henry has already revealed his desire to return to Emirates Stadium at some stage however he accepts now that it will be in an off-field capacity.
"I would like to," he said. "It's a big thing. I would love to be part of the Club one day but it's not up to me. And right now, I think they are in the right hands. Everybody knows that one day I would like to come back here but, as a player, I doubt it."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Fox Imagines Contradiction In Obama's Statements On The Expiration Of Bush Tax Cuts
Blog ››› ››› KEVIN ZIEBER
Fox invented a contradiction between two of President Obama's previous statements and his current push to let the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy expire. In reality, Obama's prior comments are perfectly consistent with his current position.
Fox's Steve Doocy pointed to a statement Obama made in 2009 when the country was still in a recession to create a contradiction between Obama's past and present statements on letting the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy expire. Doocy claimed the president said back in 2009, "you never raise taxes during a recession," but that he's now saying: "This is the perfect time to raise taxes."
In August 2009, Obama said that "normally you don't raise taxes in a recession, which is why we haven't." President Obama added: "We have not proposed a tax hike for the wealthy that would take effect in the middle of a recession."
At the time the president made that statement, the country was just at the end of a recession. The National Bureau of Economic Research (the organization that semi-officially declares when the United States is in a recession) announced that the recession officially ended in June 2009, but it did not make that announcement until September 2010.
Later in the same segment, Fox's Dana Perino pointed to a different Obama statement as "slightly more important." Perino said that in December 2010 -- i.e., after it was clear that the country was in recovery -- Obama said "the worst thing you can do is raise taxes in the middle of a slow economic growth and high unemployment. Let's extend these tax cuts for another two years."
But Perino completely misrepresented Obama's 2010 comments.
Obama made the comments while announcing a deal with Republicans on taxes and unemployment benefits that extended the Bush tax for all income taxpayer for two years. In the statement, Obama actually made it abundantly clear that he favored extending the cuts only for the middle class, not the wealthiest Americans. Obama explained that a tax increase on middle class Americans would harm the economy while a tax increase on the wealthiest Americans would have little effect. But he said the only way to prevent a middle class tax increase was to agree to a temporary extension of the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans too.:
Ever since I started running for this office I've said that we should only extend the tax cuts for the middle class. These are the Americans who've taken the biggest hit not only from this recession but from nearly a decade of costs that have gone up while their paychecks have not. It would be a grave injustice to let taxes increase for these Americans right now. And it would deal a serious blow to our economic recovery.
Now, Republicans have a different view. They believe that we should also make permanent the tax cuts for the wealthiest 2 percent of Americans. I completely disagree with this. A permanent extension of these tax cuts would cost us $700 billion at a time when we need to start focusing on bringing down our deficit. And economists from all across the political spectrum agree that giving tax cuts to millionaires and billionaires does very little to actually grow our economy.
This is where the debate has stood for the last couple of weeks. And what is abundantly clear to everyone in this town is that Republicans will block a permanent tax cut for the middle class unless they also get a permanent tax cut for the wealthiest Americans, regardless of the cost or impact on the deficit.
I have no doubt that everyone will find something in this compromise that they don't like. In fact, there are things in here that I don't like -- namely the extension of the tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and the wealthiest estates. But these tax cuts will expire in two years. And I'm confident that as we make tough choices about bringing our deficit down, as I engage in a conversation with the American people about the hard choices we're going to have to make to secure our future and our children's future and our grandchildren's future, it will become apparent that we cannot afford to extend those tax cuts any longer.
Between the end of the recession and now, the economy made significant strides, including 12 straight quarters of growth. It is entirely consistent for President Obama to resume the push to let the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest two percent expire given that the economy is now on more stable footing.

text: Taking charge of German designer Jil Sander's namesake label, creative director Rodolfo Paglialunga intensifies and clarifies its rigorously minimalist aesthetic. Meticulous experiments with proportion and high-fidelity monochromatic styling up the volume of the line's traditionally minimalist womenswear, with interjections of subdued yet statement-making geometric colorblocking. Boyish tailoring incorporates idiosyncratic femininity in the form of culottes, asymmetric dresses with suiting accents, and boxy blazers layered over draped silk blouses. Exquisite leather shoes and bags add shine and a touch of retro glamour.

For two days, LDS leaders from male apostles to the faith's top female presidents have hammered home the message that men and women have different but equally vital roles.
Even so, Kate Kelly is not letting those pronouncements deter her from pursuing priesthood ordinations for Mormon women. In fact, she sees the contrasting perspectives as progress.
"We're beginning to open the dialogue," said Kelly, a devout Mormon and human-rights attorney.
Ordain Women conducted a meeting Saturday night at the University of Utah's Union Theatre at the same time Mormon men and boys were gathering for the all-male priesthood session of the faith's General Conference.
Close to 100 people including several men attended the Ordain Women meeting.
Earlier in the day, LDS apostle M. Russell Ballard and Elaine S. Dalton, the church's outgoing Young Women's president, both spoke about the distinct roles of men and women.
"Our daily contributions of nurturing, teaching and caring for others may seem mundane, diminished, difficult and demeaning at times," Dalton said, "and yet as we remember that first line in the Young Women theme, 'We are daughters of our Heavenly Father, who loves us,' it will make all the difference in our relationships and our responses."
Ballard said that while men hold the priesthood, they need women to help them fully exercise it.
"Men and women have different but equally valued roles," he said. "Just as a woman cannot conceive a child without a man, so a man cannot fully exercise the power of the priesthood to establish an eternal family without a woman."
But those who attended the U. gathering which one person dubbed a "priestesshood session" argued that Mormon history shows women performed acts that now are considered priesthood ordinances, such as blessing the sick, and that the Relief Society, the church's women's organization, was patterned on LDS priesthood quorums.
"I am convinced that [Mormon founder] Joseph Smith saw the restoration of female priesthood as part of the restoration of all things," said former Mormon Margaret Toscano, a language arts professor at the U.
Chris Foster, an Orem resident and a friend of Kelly, said he became convinced that women should have the LDS priesthood when he recently blessed his infant daughter.
"When I gave my baby a blessing, [my wife] felt like she should be up there holding her, and I felt so, too," Robert said, adding he hoped his daughter one day would be ordained to the priesthood.

CHAPEL HILL — Redshirt freshman Megan Buckland came off the bench and led No. 11 North Carolina (17-1, 5-0 ACC) to a 79-58 win against Georgia Tech (8-8, 1-4 ACC) in Carmichael Arena on Sunday.
The guard's 19 points marked a career-high for Buckland, while her five three-pointers also set a personal best.
Sophomore Brittany Rountree also found success from the long range, with 3-for-5 three-point shooting and 13 points. In total, North Carolina shot 54 percent, with an impressive 69.2 percent from beyond-the-arc.
Senior point guard Tierra Ruffin-Pratt added 11 points and eight assists of her own to North Carolina's play, while freshman Xylina McDaniel and senior Krista Gross each scored 10 points. Gross also added three steals to the effort.
Despite being outrebounded 43-27 by the Yellow Jackets and only notching one offensive rebound in their effort, the Tar Heels dominated play for the majority of Sunday's game. Waltiea Rolle led UNC's defensive effort with six blocks.
After an initial three-pointer from Georgia Tech's Brittany Jackson less than three minutes into the game, the Tar Heels followed with 22-0 run, controlling the tempo for most of the first half. The Yellow Jackets would not score again until 8:41 remained in the period.
Though Georgia Tech then went on a 12-3 run, effective perimeter play by the Tar Heels continued North Carolina's success late in the first half. UNC held a 41-17 lead at the break, shooting 53.3 percent total and 70 percent from the three-point range.
Carolina's effective perimeter play continued in the second half, when the Tar Heels' offense once again strung together 9-0 and 18-6 runs.
Georgia Tech's Jackson led all scorers with 20 points, while junior guard Tyaunna Marshall chipped in 15. In all, the Yellow Jackets shot just 31.9 percent in the loss.
The victory marks Carolina's 10th in a row and pushes coach Sylvia Hatchell just four away from 900 wins. Her next opportunity will be Thursday at 6:30 p.m., when UNC continues conference play against Virginia in Carmichael Arena.

While recently trolling a local retailer's shop for value whites (several Cono Sur wines and an '06 Allram GV were the lure) I came across several well-priced Torrontés wines and decided to take a chance on a couple. The first one, opened with a light supper tonight:
2008 Trivento Torrontés "Select" Mendoza ($9.99)
nose: floral notes, stones and stone fruit, alcoholic heat
palate: moderately acidic, unoaked, somewhat soft, crisp finish, cleanly fruity
Somewhat reminiscent of Pinot Blanc in the nose, the wine had a somewhat offputting level of heat in the nose (13.5% ABV), but was acceptable with food. Jean felt that it might have a touch of RS as the mouthfeel was quite soft though there was noticeable acidity to the wine. A bit too heavy for a summer quaffer and a bit to soft for a dinner wine, but all in all not a bad showing.

Re: Spectrum
I wanted to do a design related to prisms because that was the first science fair project I ever did. I wanted to make an interesting design, so I thought it would be cool to combine it with the idea of different colors of light affecting plant growth. This design was the outcome, hope you enjoy

You could make the argument that without the comic all the rest of the media wouldn't exist but like I said it just gets a bit silly. Just tattle it.
also, if you went by the fact that something had a video game made out of it at some point, a lot of things would be off limits since they seem to make a video game about anything these days...

i am a huge fan of TMNT so to me i always appreciate a reference, but i have a 4 year old nephew that LOVES THEM. Thy still have tons of merchandising for them, they still show the cartoon on tv, they just had a movie out not too long ago, they still have video games, and Nickelodeon is actually making a new TMNT cartoon at this very moment. not to mention TMNT references seem to do well here. with all that i say that they are doing just fine.

I like the design, and its a nice change of pace from your usual stuff kevlar. Good use of the green shirt here as well.
Good luck on this one and it gets my vote!

Thanks Diana! I don't think detail should be a problem- I've had a lot of shirts printed with this level of detailed linework in the past without problems, and woot is generally excellent at the screenprinting process- though I think there are too many other great designs for this to stand a chance anyway, so I don't think we need to worry!

If only this statement was true. The human race can't even get past barbaric murder of animals for fashion (see Donna Karen/DKNY Bunny Butcher), let alone science. I'll stop here as that's way to big of an argument to start here.

Other stuff I have done in the past have been passed over because it didn't have a wide appeal. But I don't think its wrong for an artist looking for a broader audience.
as to the hate, re-read your first comment with fresh eyes, and be honest, it comes across full of venom.
Full venom? A little snarky, maybe, but full venom? I'd say that is an over reaction.
Your most successful design was in the robot derby, and it was original, well done, and a near print. You didn't get any negative comment, just praise (well deserved I might add). If you are trying to reach a broader audience with your art, that is the obvious direction you should go.
Since your little hissy fit over not printing, you've done nothing but churn out overdone pop culture crap and existing IP. Knowing how creative you can be vs. what we see from you now, it really seems you are just going for the cheap popular gag so that you can get a print and make some money. It doesn't have to be about the art. There is a very successful designer here who obviously doesn't care about the art. It's all about the easy buck for them. If that's what you want to do, fine, go do it. But at least be honest about it. And if you are going to keep churning out lazy work in hopes of a quick buck, more power to you, but don't try and play the victim of some hate campaign against you every time you get flack for not being original. In short, man up.
Re: Experimental Fail

As for color, I'm totally confused on this issue. Your entry form says that brown equates to Pantone 7519, which is what I used for my entry. However, I totally agree that it does not match up with the color swatch provided in the blank shirt template. When I do the eyedropper to the brown swatch, it comes up as Black 2C (which looks like the brown in the swatch). Is is possible that the pantone # found on the entry page is incorrect? (I am referring to the "What's this?" link found next to the design detail entry.)
Thank you for your input and guidance.
I can't speak to the coloring issues...but spelling on a calculator, while age appropriate, is hardly a science experiment. Just sayin'...

Love the colors! Been a while since I've seen a nice red shirt. I also think that the frogs are still pretty animal-like and as for the text, it's not a text-centric design IMO because if you remove the text, it would still work and you'd still know what was going on.

I completely agree. I like it better without the guy. It took me a second to figure out what he was suppose to be; I thought it was a caveman at first.
Also, maybe it's just me, but the different colors for the pain meter bars confused me. I thought the second one meant 4 out of 6 because the white bars seem "lit" to me while the beige ones don't. It threw off my understanding of the third pain meter for a second there.

You quoted my post but I don't recall it saying the video games were more important than the comic. I seem to be lost on the idea that it can only be considered one or the other. Is it a movie? Yes. Is it a comic book? Yes. Is it a video game? Yes. Was it a cereal? Yes. Is it a cartoon series? Yes. Was it a short-lived rock band with an album titled "Coming Out Of Their Shells"? Yes.
My post was pointing out that it was more than just a comic and it was very much a video game. I think you can do more than just "make the argument that without the comic all the rest of the media wouldn't exist." That is the truth as that was the source - again not the point being argued though but thanks for your input.

Gorgeous. If I saw this shirt, I would think "sky in a jar" which would immediately bring to mind the science experiment. I agree with skirochester, you made a very wearable shirt that beautifully fulfills this week's tough derby theme.
Wow. I try to never get into the Ramyb flame war and have been surprised in the past at comments on both sides but this particular topic... wow this has to be a new low record on Woot of all the mud slinging and hateful comments. I have to admit I am a bit surprised this hasn't been rejected again for various reasons already stated and that there was very little changed on the resubmission without really confronting the original problem. I can just say if this wins I won't be buying this shirt.

Dell just picked up Enstratius for an undisclosed amount today, making the cloud management vendor the latest well-known cloud controller to get snapped up by a big infrastructure or OS vendor. Dell will add Enstratius cloud management capabilities to its existing management suite for converged and cloudy infrastructure, which includes element manager and configuration automator Active System Manager (ASM, the re-named assets acquired with Gale Technologies in November), Quest Foglight performance monitoring, and (maybe) what's still around from Scalent and DynamicOps.
This is a good move for Dell, but it doesn't exactly clarify where all these management capabilities will fall out. The current ASM product seems to be a combo of code from the original Scalent acquisition upgraded with the GaleForce product; regardless of what's in it, though, what it does is discover, configure and deploy physical and virtual converged infrastructure components. A private cloud automation platform, basically. Like all private cloud management stacks, it does rapid template-based provisioning and workflow orchestration. But it doesn't provision apps or provision to public or open-source cloud stacks. That's where Enstratius comes in.

All right folks,
I love watching NASCAR, one thing that I have always wondered is how exactly the point system works. I know that they get certain amount of points for lead lap, laps led, finishing and etc. What I don't know is what the value is of all them. Someone out there knows what points they get for what they do during the race so please enlighten me.

'The Islanders are getting a little nervous. "I don't want to take anything away from Buffalo," Islanders winger Mark Parrish said Sunday night. "Buffalo is playing pretty good right now. They're doing exactly what we're supposed to be doing, which is making points."'

Time the biggest enemy for Sabres in playoff dash
Replacing Regier should top Sabres' to-do list
'The Sabres are an entertaining team from the coaching staff down, a failure anywhere higher until the ladder reaches owner Tom Golisano. For years, fans pleaded for an honest effort on the ice, and that's exactly what they received this season. It would have been nice if Regier and the front office worked as hard as the players did.'
Sabres vs. Blue Jackets
'The Sabres are enjoying the season's best month at 7-2-1-3.'
Game Day Scorecard
'The Blue Jackets are 3-1-1-0 against the Sabres, including 2-1-1-0 in HSBC Arena. This is the first and only meeting this season.
Sabres let lead slip away, tie Pens
'"We're a point closer. That's a little bit of a positive," Sabres center Daniel Briere said. "But we're running out of time. We're only making it more difficult on ourselves."'
Quinn's delusions of grandeur aside, Sabres are no playoff team
'"I look at our team for what it is," Quinn said. "I think it's a playoff team. There just may be circumstances we don't make it this year." Earth to Larry, come in Larry.'
Ice Level: Lindy Ruff
'I go back to the middle of December, when we came out of a seven-game losing streak. The core group of players in that room — Chris Drury, Daniel Briere, Alexei Zhitnik, Miroslav Satan, the likes of those guys — bought into what we're doing and have taken control. They've made it their team.'
Penguins rally to tie Sabres, 2-2
'Buffalo probably will end up in the lottery, too, but still has an outside chance of overtaking the New York Islanders for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The point the Sabres earned last night, coupled with the Islanders' 3-2 loss to Carolina, moved the Sabres within five points of New York.'
Penguins Report
'"We had a tough time with confidence early on," D Jay McKee said. "All of our positions were struggling at different times. There were times our goaltenders were struggling, times when we couldn't score goals, times with the defense could have been better. Since then, though, we've found some chemistry, and everything blended right away. And we're still playing with a lot of passion. We have a room full of guys who believe we can still get into the playoffs."'
Penguins earn point in tie with Sabres
'"We have to win games," said coach Lindy Ruff, whose Sabres are now seven points behind the Islanders. "You are walking such a fine line right now that you can make mistakes and it can cost you a game."'
Nemec impressive in Wilkes-Barre
'Defenseman Brooks Orpik grew up in Amherst, N.Y., a suburb of Buffalo, and watched the Sabres play many times. "I came to a lot of games," he said. "I was never really a fan. But my dad is in the hockey business, so he was always down (at HSBC arena), actually across the street at the old arena. But I was down here a lot and out at their practice rink a ton growing up."'
Buffalo 2, Pittsburgh 2, OT
'"It's tough to not get the two points,'' Sabres forward Mike Grier said. "Now we're pretty much going to have to win them all and still get at least another two losses from the Islanders. We had some chances.'''
Buffalo 2, Pittsburgh 2, OT
'Pittsburgh outshot Buffalo, 18-5, after the second period.'
Penguins Put Playoff Bid On Ice
'With the win Buffalo now improves its record to 35-32-6-4 and does gain a point on the New York Islanders with the tie. The Sabres now trail by only five points but giving up the two goal lead may come back to haunt Buffalo with only four games left for both teams.'
Game Recap
'The Buffalo Sabres need every point they can get if they want to secure a berth in the 2004 postseason. But for the final 25 minutes of Saturday night's game, it was the Penguins who played like they might be heading to the playoffs this year.'

By Joe Brewin
Lukasz Fabianski is not among those leading the calls for the introduction of goal-line technology.
FIFA are expected to reach a definitive conclusion on the matter at the International Football Association Board meeting on July 2 - the day after the Euro 2012 final.
But Fabianski is concerned that technology could detract from the romance of the game as we know it.
"I don't know if we are going to get goal-line technology in the future but to be honest I would love to keep it as it is," he told a Chinese fans' webchat. "I know people have their own opinions on the subject but for me, football is football. It is a game of mistakes and that is part of it.
"There is still no technology used by the officials. Outside the game, for the commentators and experts, I think it is really helpful but during the games for the officials it has always been the same."
While the Polish international is not keen on the idea of technology during the game, its usage everywhere else is difficult to avoid.
Ben Foster created headlines in the 2009 Carling Cup final after using an iPod to inspire Manchester United's penalty shoot-out success over Tottenham. But Fabianski says, when it comes to him, it will always be gut feeling over statistics.
"When it comes to me I just try to follow my instincts, " he said. "Obviously before the games you get the statistics from the goalkeeping coaches about the penalty takers you might face. It is helpful but when you are in the game you just wonder, 'should I follow the piece of paper or should I follow my instincts?'
"I think the main thing with penalties is that you have to keep your nerve and wait as long as possible. If you do that then you can put the striker under pressure and he can maybe freak out at the end when he sees the goalkeeper standing in the middle.
"We have a goalkeeping iPad but we have never brought it to the bench or used it in games. We will use it maybe just before penalty kicks. Hopefully we will end up in the FA Cup final and, if it goes to penalties, it might be really helpful."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Taranto said Republicans never question Democrats' patriotism, then did just that
Research ››› ››› SHANT MESROBIAN
In the May 17 edition of The Wall Street Journal's editorial page website, OpinionJournal.com, editor James Taranto, in his "Best of the Web Today" column, wrote, "[S]ome Democrats do not seem to be on the side of their own country" -- yet just one month ago, he wrote, "Republicans almost never question Democrats' patriotism. ... [T]o do so would look vicious and unseemly."
On May 17, Taranto wrote:
Although 1864 and 2004 are vastly different times, there is a similarity. Now as then, America is at war, albeit this time with an external enemy; and now as then, some Democrats do not seem to be on the side of their own country.
But on April 19, Taranto wrote:
The truth be told, Republicans almost never question Democrats' patriotism. Even if there is reason to question it, to do so would look vicious and unseemly and would almost certainly backfire on the Republican politician who tried it.
Kerry knows this, which is why he (and many Democrats before him) is so eager to perpetuate the myth that Republicans are questioning his patriotism. But anyone who's paying attention knows it's not true, and as we've patiently tried to explain, to accuse someone of attacking your patriotism is to raise questions about it.

Hi there,
I am currently applying for jobs in China, and I have been mainly looking at the TEIC programme www.teic.co.uk
It seems to be a goverment linked, not for profit initiative and fronted by an retired university proffessor in Wales. I emailed him yesterday and got a reply to my questions, so far so good. However, i cannot really find any information on it on the internet, good or bad, other than links from various university websites. I wonder if anyone has heard of the orgaisation and could offer some advice. The services they offer (essentially acting as a recruiter) seem fairly good for someone just starting out without experience or qualifications, but then i dont really have the expetise to tell otherwise.
Any assistance greatly appreciated!

Rem Koolhaas has chutzpah. First, he wants us to believe that "architectures that were once specific and local have become interchangeable and global. National identity has seemingly been sacrificed to modernity," according to Venice Biennale materials. Sweeping, but OK. As director of the 2014 International Architecture exhibition, he wants every country in the world to show how it has lost that "specific and local" and become part of a global culture of Modernism. He asserts that his short evaluation of the last century of architecture history is true, seeks to show it in the vast exhibition halls the Biennale will make available to him, and will embark on a research project lasting more than a year to prove his point.
Truth be told, we always knew that Koolhaas was one of the purest Modernists around. Pure, but not uncomplicated. His Modernism is actually postmodern in the sense that it looks back at the history of Modernism, mines its forms and its ideas, and rearranges them in ways that respond to the continual change and movement of goods, people, and information that are the hallmarks of modernity. He is in that sense, the purest Modernist working today.
In the last few years, he has also been radical in his call to look beyond preservation and assert the necessity of building new structures. Now he has been given architecture's ultimate bully pulpit to make his point. At the last Biennale, he showed some of the forgotten and not much loved bureaucratic bulwarks of Modernist government structures. Now he will try to show that what was a way of making things that still had some ties to local conditions and materials (I am here inferring from his short statement), as well as local histories and traditions, dissolved as our economy and culture became more and more unified. He is probably right. I would only quibble about the starting point: by 1914, I would argue that most of what we think of as architecture, which is to say the self-conscious making of buildings according to a preconceived plan, had already become so rationalized, as had the thinking about it, and even the ways in which architects were taught, that local variations were either incidental or willful attempts to reassert specific identity. To get really pre-modern, you might, as Leon Krier has long argued, have to go back to some period well before the French Revolution.
Koolhaas is here as much interested in the difficulties of the thesis as he is in its assertion (as usual). As he points out: "The transition to what seems like a universal architectural language is a more complex process than we typically recognize, involving significant encounters between cultures, technical inventions and imperceptible ways of remaining 'national.' In a time of ubiquitous Google research and the flattening of cultural memory, it is crucial for the future of architecture to resurrect and expose these narratives."
It is the history and the complexities of these architectures that interest him as much as any result. I am excited at the prospect of this thesis being meted out at the Biennale, though I must say that if I was the commissioner of a country pavilion (which I have been three times), my first reaction would be to reassert the identity and specialness of my territory. It will take a lot of persuasion and some enlightened commissioners (and the state agencies that fund them) to let the destruction of part of the culture these pavilions are funded to display be on display.
Koolhaas also claims that this Biennale will be, unlike the last few (including the one I directed in 2008, I assume), be about "architecture, not architects." To that, I say: Give me a break. Though I admire the fact that this architect himself has worked hard to deflect media attention away from his outsized personality, articulate positions, and undoubted talents and toward the work of the Office for Metropolitan Architecture that he heads, we still live in a culture in which personalities are recognizable and empathetic place-holders for ideas, actions, and institutional structures. That construction of personalities is as much part of Modernism as is the fetishism of new materials. You can criticize either within the work itself, but you cannot deny its presence. I look forward to attending Mr. Rem Koolhaas's Biennale.

Fate of adopted Ethiopian boy lies in a FedEx box on its way from a remote African village

A native Ethiopian, 12-year-old Behaylu and his adoptive family in Stratham are hoping for a miracle after he was diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia three weeks ago.
The diagnosis came just after Behaylu, an avid soccer player, who turns 13 on March 28, was selected for an elite team at Seacoast United Soccer Club in Hampton. Symptoms began last month with nose bleeds, chest pain and difficulty breathing. Hospitalized at Boston Children's Hospital after his diagnosis, Behaylu is now back home and is receiving weekly blood transfusions.
"Gym class is kind of hard," he said.
The Barrys have already contacted a doctor in Ethiopia who has agreed to help with passports, exit visas and other steps that may need to be taken to bring a sibling to the United States.
The Barrys have provided a loving home for the young boy, the middle child in an African family that relinquished him because of brutal poverty and hunger.Four years ago, after Behaylu expressed concern about their well-being, the Barrys set out on a mission to find his birth family. It took about two years. In 2012, the Barrys traveled to Ethiopia. Behaylu was greeted with a hero's welcome when he arrived in the village and met up with his family.
The Barrys now help Behaylu's siblings by providing the resources they need to attend private school and have proper clothing and health care.

Theo Walcott claims his new-found fame has not changed his life but it has had an effect on the defenders who mark him.
The 19-year-old winger has always been high profile. His Southampton debut, his acquisition by Arsenal, his World Cup call up and his assist against Liverpool were all headline stories BEFORE he hit that hat-trick against Croatia. However his England exploits have certainly opened up the frontiers of his fame.
Walcott came in for 'special treatment' in Kiev on Wednesday. His manager criticised the referee Luis Medina Cantalejo in Arsenal's opening Group G game for not taking a stronger against his marker.
However Walcott himself seemed pretty happy about the reasons behind those strong-arm tactics.
"It is a nice feeling when a defender is scared of you," he said afterwards. "It always puts a smile on your face. It means you will hopefully win the battle with him. I got kicked a few times but you just have to win the battle with them. You just have to suck it up and get back at them."
And as for the off-the-pitch effects of Theo's trio, the youngster appears to have taken it all in his stride.
"It has not really touched me," he went on. "It has [affected] more the family than me. We have had a few paparazzi outside the house but I have just got away from it. I have been training well and really just trying to take each game as it comes. That is all I can do.
"I just love playing. I mean playing for Arsenal at 19 is a dream come true and starting in Champions League is brilliant.
"I just want to play well for Club and country now."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

7 steps to a 2010 Roth IRA conversion

Taxes » Investment Taxes » Finalizing Your 2010 Roth Taxes
2010 was a great year for retirement savers. That was when the income limit restricting who could convert a traditional individual retirement account to a Roth plan was eliminated.
Now anyone, regardless of how much they make, can roll their tax-deferred traditional IRA money into a tax-free Roth IRA.
The one remaining hang-up is that when you convert to a Roth, you must pay taxes on the taxable portion of your traditional IRA.
This tax is due on the portion of your traditional IRA that you previously deducted, along with the earnings, because this amount is tax-deferred money. You pay tax when you take distributions, or in this case, convert the funds.
That's required because it's going into a Roth IRA, where distributions are tax-free because taxes are paid on contributions before they're made. This means tax on contributions from a converted traditional IRA must be paid.
But 2010 also was a great year when it came to paying the conversion taxes.
That year, taxpayers who converted a traditional IRA to a Roth were given the choice to pay all the conversion taxes all at once on their 2010 tax returns or to spread the tax payments equally over the 2011 and 2012 tax years.
If you opted to spread out the conversion tax bill, you reported half of the taxable traditional IRA amount on your 2011 tax return. Now this filing season, you must report the remainder of your conversion and pay taxes on it on your 2012 income tax return.
The payment is simple if you didn't take any other distributions from the Roth retirement account. You enter the remaining half of your 2010 Roth conversion on line 15b of Form 1040, or if you file a Form 1040A, on line 11b of that shorter form.
Don't remember how much you converted? That's where your tax record-keeping comes into play.
When you converted the traditional IRA to a Roth in 2010, you filed Form 8606 with that year's tax return. That let the Internal Revenue Service know that you were deferring your retirement plan tax payment for a couple of years.
The amount on which you owe taxes for 2012 (i.e., half the original conversion amount) is on line 20b of that 2010 Form 8606.
This covers your conversion taxes for 2012 as long as you have not taken any distributions from the Roth account since you converted it in 2010.
If you did take money out of your Roth IRA since the conversion, you'll have a bit more work to do. The IRS has work sheets in Publication 590 to help you determine your 2012 traditional-to-Roth IRA conversion taxes in light of the account distributions. Your tax professional or tax prep software also should be able to help you figure the correct conversion tax amount.
And the extra filing work could be worth it. Depending on the amount and timing of your distributions, your Roth conversion taxes due this year could be reduced.

How can I prevent pregnacy while continously breastfeeding?
Hello, I am jenet. I am breastfeeding since I gave birth to my one year old baby girl. I have not have my menstruation since I gave birth so I am apprehensive to be pregnant. Is there any possible technique or method that I can use to determine If I am fertile or not while breastfeeding?? Hope to hear from you..Take Care!

Hi Jenet,
One of the best ways to determine if you are fertile, while breastfeeding, is to watch your body's natural signs of fertility. Your body will tell you when it's getting ready to ovulate, even before you have your first period after giving birth.
When you are not fertile, your body produces "dry" cervical mucus. You'll know you're dry because you'll feel like you need to add a lubricant when you're making love. It just won't be very slippery or wet.
About 5 days before you're going to ovulate, your cervical mucus will change. You may see a clump of mucus on your underwear or hanging from your pubic hair. That clump of mucus might feel like dried rubber cement if you touch it. Some women won't see this clump of mucus, and others will see it routinely, each month. Being that the breastfeeding is actually keeping you from ovulating right now (and keeping you from having a period) you may only have a couple of days of fertile mucus before you ovulate so knowing what to look for is key, and can give you peace of mind.
Your cervical mucus will become sticky and tacky and creamy and it may look white. This is a good indication that you have entered your fertile window, and having sex at this time could result in pregnancy. If you want to avoid pregnancy, you'll need to avoid intercourse as soon as you see any signs of fertility, whether that's a clump of mucus, or a creamy discharge or really slippery clear fluid.
Typically, after seeing the change from clump to white and creamy, your cervical mucus will then go from creamy to stretchy and take on more of a clear color. You will be able to pick it up and stretch it between your fingers. It may stretch just an inch or two, and then break. You're in your fertile window and sex during this time could result in pregnancy.
The day before and the day of ovulation, your cervical mucus will be clear and wet and it will have the consistency of egg white. You will be able to pick it up and stretch it between your thumb and fore finger and it may not break even if you stretch it 6 inches. This is when you are at your peak of fertility and sex at this time gives you the best chance of conception.
When you are highly fertile you may notice that the cervical mucus looks shimmery when you wipe across your vagina with toilet paper. You may also notice that you're sex drive is high and you just feel sexier. One study that I read showed that women tend to buy sexier clothing when they are close to ovulation. This totally makes sense because God designed it so that hormone levels would change, creating a higher sex drive around the time of ovulation thus ensuring that the human race would continue.
Another way to tell when you're at the peak of your fertile window is that your cervix will rise just before ovulation. If you straddle your husband while making love and your cervix is high, it will feel very comfortable for you to sit on him, whereas if your cervix is low, you may find this position to be less comfortable.
Sperm can survive for 3-5 days in the presence of good, fertile, cervical mucus, so if you're trying to avoid pregnancy, you'll want to be sure you stop having sex as soon as you see any signs of fertility, and that you start having sex 2 days after you ovulate or your last signs of fertility. You'll want to have 2 good, dry days, before resuming intercourse.
The egg only lives for 12-24 hours, so once you've ovulated, you can be confident that you can no longer get pregnant starting 2 days later (unless you ovulate again, which is rare, and in that case you'd have signs of fertility again).
This is called natural family planning or NFP and though there's a little more to this (taking your temperature) I simply watched my fertility signs (cervical mucus changes) and avoided pregnancy for 7 years this way. When we were ready for our first child, I just reversed what I had been doing to avoid pregnancy, and used my fertile signs to know when to conceive. We conceived the first month we tried for our first baby.
Please post back any questions you may have. Even if it's 2 months from now when you're wondering if you're seeing signs of fertility, feel free to post back and I'll help you as best I can.
Warm Regards,

Hi Jenet,
I see you have already had some great information from Kate. If you are are 'ecologically breastfeeding' then the average time for your periods to return (and fertility to fully return) is 15 months. Ecological breastfeeding means: you breastfeed on demand, you breastfed exclusively for your baby's first 6 months of life, you breastfeed in the day and night. Fertility also takes longer to return if you babywear and co-sleep. See this research on 'child spacing and breastfeeding'.
However, you cannot completely rely on breastfeeding as a contraception method, particularly when your baby is more than 6 months old. When you are a breastfeeding mum, you don't know when your fertility will return.
I hope this has been helpful for you - please post back if you have any further questions.

I'm one of these women who had her cycle return quickly after each of my babies, even though I only breastfed, and I have a friend who didn't get her cycle for 2 1/2 years after she had her baby.
As LJ mentioned, the average is 15 months for those who practice ecological breastfeeding, yet everyone is different. Will be interesting to see why your cycle returns.

Hi Kate,
That was a very detailed information. I am currently breastfeeding and I am actually looking for information regarding that matter because I read somewhere that a breastfeeding mum's cycle is going to be irregular after giving birth. Thanks for sharing your experience. This will help me a lot as I don't want a third child as of now yet.

Swedish fish are one of my favorite candies,they have been since I've been little,I love the flavor and I've always eaten them with a mango ice pop...weird but best combination.
Love them so much I require adult supervision (okay, adultier adult since I am an adult) because I would eat the whole bag in one sitting.
SMILE Although they are a fat free food they contain sugar; and sugar can turn to fat in your system if you're not especially active.
Honestly I love them mostly because unlike most gummy candies they don't have that fake plastic taste but it isn't the best for you.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) - Chaz Frank had three hits and Brian Holberton drove in two runs to help North Carolina beat Canisius 6-3 on Friday night in the Chapel Hill Regional.
Holberton's two run-single provided an early lead for the Tar Heels (53-8), the top overall seed in the NCAA tournament. Canisius (42-16) trailed 4-3 in the eighth before UNC added two runs on Mike Zolk's sacrifice fly and Frank's single to stay in control.
The Tar Heels improved to 27-5 as an NCAA host, though this is the first time UNC has been the No. 1 overall seed.
"We're the No. 1 team, we're the No. 1 seed, we've got that target on our back and everybody's going to give us their best shot," Frank said. "There comes a little pressure with that, but this team's been solid all year and we stepped up to the challenge."
Benton Moss allowed six hits and three runs in just 4 1/3 innings. Reliever Chris McCue (7-1) got the win with 2 2/3 scoreless innings, while Trent Thornton got the Tar Heels out of their biggest jam in the eighth after Canisius had loaded the bases with one out in a 4-3 game.
"They gave us all we could handle," UNC coach Mike Fox said. "We just grinded out a win."
Ryan Coppinger and Jose Torralba each had two hits for fourth-seeded Canisius, which saw Thornton end its eighth-inning rally by striking out two straight batters to end the inning.
Garrett Cortright (11-4) took the loss by allowing six runs and 13 hits in seven innings, while the Golden Griffins stranded 14 men on base in their first NCAA game.
"I thought our guys showed up, they played their hearts out," Canisius coach Mike McRae said. "A pitch here, an at-bat there, a play there, a call there, and maybe we're talking about a different ballgame."
North Carolina will face third-seeded Towson on Saturday at 6 p.m. after second-seeded Florida Atlantic and Canisius meet in an elimination game at 1 p.m.

So here's a brief intro to me. My name's Frank, I live upstate and work in NYC. I'm a lifelong SW geek, as I'm sure we all are here, and I've always been interested in medieval / renaissance weapons / armor etc. and history in general. I've always wanted to have a suit of Mando armor and I've always wanted a suit of ren armor, so I've decided to mold the two. Not pure mando, but not really "period" renaissance. Boba is my inspiration, so I'm working on building a stainless steel, mando ish suit of bandit / mercenary armor for the ren faire in Tuxedo, NY this year. The reason I say bandit / merc armor is because when you look at Boba's armor, it almost seems like the type of lightweight and mobile (and cheap / thrown together) armor that a merc would wear, no offense intended.
I'm currently cutting 16 ga stainless plates out using the templates I found on this site. Once they're cut, bent and planished I'll be joining them together with leather straps and buckles instead of using a typical Boba or Jango vest. I'll just wear it over some simple renaissance garb, like a short sleeve tunic and "hosen" or whatever you want to call renaissance pants, throw some piratey boots on (with added Boba boot spikes) and call it a day. After I build a barbute t-visor helmet and paint it and the whole armor in the Boba paint scheme. Let me know what you guys think, I'll see if I can get a sketch done sometime this week.
Quick question, for a WIP thread on this, which subforum should I post in? Figure I might as well do a build thread.
PS, you guys have some awesome armor and ideas, and I've been a lurker almost since the inception of the site.
