USC's sponsored awards hit new record: $238 million
By Steven Powell, email@example.com, 803-777-1923
The University of South Carolina's research funding and sponsored awards for fiscal year 2012 totaled $238.3 million, a new record and a 5 percent increase over the preceding year, said Prakash Nagarkatti, USC's vice president for research.
"Almost 70 percent of the research carried out by the universities across the U.S. is funded by nationally competitive grants awarded by federal agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, Department of Defense, and the like," Nagarkatti said. "With the federal support for research remaining relatively flat or declining in recent years, it is remarkable that USC faculty have been able to successfully secure such high levels of research funding."
Federal awards from the U.S. Department Energy increased 22 percent and from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 7 percent. Business and industry awards were up more than 70 percent, from $10.3 to $17.6 million.
"Our vibrant research program has a tremendous impact on the health, well-being and prosperity of our citizens through initiatives in public health, medicine, aerospace and others," said USC President Harris Pastides. "USC will continue to emphasize innovative research and technology as we educate South Carolinians and engage in economic development."
Notable research awards from the past year include:
Recovery from brain damage, particularly from strokes that affect communication. The NIH has awarded $4.5 million to the department of communication sciences and disorders in the Arnold School of Public Health to study the treatment of aphasia in stroke victims.
Drought and other climate-related vulnerabilities. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has awarded $3.8 million to the department of biological sciences in the College of Arts and Sciences to work with a variety of stakeholders across North and South Carolina to advance scientific understanding of climate and hydrological processes in the Carolinas into the decision-making process.
Sleep restriction affecting older adults. The NIH has awarded $3.7 million to the department of exercise science in the Arnold School of Public Health to examine the effects of 12 weeks of sleep restriction of just one hour per night on a host of outcomes, including mood, sleepiness, and inflammation, in adults 60 to 80 years old.
Treating colitis and colon cancer. The NIH has awarded $2.1 million to the department of pharmaceutical and biomedical sciences in the South Carolina College of Pharmacy to study a new, small molecule that inhibits colitis, possibly with fewer side effects than other drugs. Current therapies of inflammatory bowel disease are fraught with side effects, including cancer and death.
Treating multiple sclerosis. The NIH has awarded $2 million to the department of pathology, microbiology, and immunology in the School of Medicine to study the mechanism by which phytonutrients in vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and cabbage suppress MS, which affects some 350,000 to 500,000 people in North America alone.
Treating substance abuse in parents. The NIH has awarded $3.2 million to the department of psychology in the College of Arts and Sciences to study the concurrent treatment of substance abuse and child maltreatment.
USC is one of only 63 public universities listed by the Carnegie Foundation in the highest tier of research institutions in the United States and the only one in the state of South Carolina.

Within a year the success of these wines was being noted. In 1975, the "Burgundy" won the first competition trophy for Matua Valley at the Royal Easter Show. A less publicized triumph was the impression the Sauvignon Blanc had made amongst the other winemakers, leading to the decision to include large quantities of this variety in the first vineyards to be planted in the now famous Marlborough region. In 1976 a new company, Matua Valley Wines Ltd was formed in partnership with another Auckland family, the Margans.
The new foundation allowed Matua Valley to put down more substantial roots, and in 1977, 25 hectares of land was purchased in the beautiful green Waikoukou Valley, 35 kilometers west of Auckland. A new winery was built on the crest of a low ridge overlooking the valley, and the first steps made towards landscaping gardens and establishing a visitors' center were made.

About MarlboroughView a map of Marlborough wineries (mahrl-bore-oh)
Sitting pretty on the northern tip of New Zealand's south island, Marlborough has become synonymous with New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. As well it should be – Marlborough is the primary region for those delicious, citrusy, summer-lovin' wines with vibrant acidity and pungent, grassy, grapefruit flavors. Sauvignon Blanc is the main grape here; Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Riesling are also made.

People pay big money to come all the way to Orange County for romantic getaways.
For those of us who live here and have year-round access to the 42 miles of coastline, we sometimes forget about beautiful ways to enjoy the beaches and harbors.
With Valentine's Day – yes fellas, it's Thursday – here are a few tips for you and your loved one to take a romantic mini-getaway to the coast.
On the cheap:
Just taking a nice stroll along the sand as the sun goes down would be romantic enough for most days of the year, but you might want to make an extra effort on Valentine's Day or this weekend to celebrate.
People often forget about the hundreds of fire rings along the coastline during the winter season, and what more romantic way than to curl up next to a warm fire for a cuddle on a chilly night at the beach. You can find plenty of rings along Bolsa Chica and Huntington State Beach this time of year. The only real cost is the parking fee, a bundle of firewood, and whatever you want to roast over the flame. And there's nothing more romantic than taking a stroll along the sand under the stars with the waves crashing in the background before you call it a night.
If you want to do a mini-getaway, check out one of our beachfront campsites like Doheny State Beach or San Clemente State Beach. It's fairly inexpensive for an overnight, at about $45 a night. Weekends fill up fast, but if you can get off work mid-week, there are plenty of spots at both locations on Thursday night. Pitching a tent for the night will no doubt make you feel miles away from your everyday life in O.C. To book, go to reserveamerica.com
If you want something more active, try stand-up paddle at one of the three harbors along the O.C. coast. It's a great way to bond while gliding along the water, and if neither one of you has done it, watching each other try to keep balance could make for a good laugh – especially if one of you slips into the chilly water! Make sure the winds are down so you don't spend the afternoon struggling too much. Huntington, Newport and Dana Point harbors all have places you can rent boards that range from about $15 to $20 an hour.
Splurge a bit:
You don't have to go all the way to Venice to experience what it's like to be on a gondola, cruising along the waterways and relaxing with a loved one in your arms.
The Gondola Company of Newport is a one-hour cruise that will surely impress your partner. The company even does fun things like surprise kidnappings from one of the harborside restaurants, a "message in a bottle," or if you're ready for it, a marriage proposal. They come with a basket of bread, cheese, salami, sparkling cider and glasses. Cost is about $85, but rates do increase for holidays, and there might be only a few slots open the next few days. Information: gondolas.com
If you're closer to Huntington, Sunset Gondola also offers tours, and you can pick from $80 for 40 minutes for two people, $110 for an hour, or $140 for an hour and a half. Valentine's Day rates will cost you $120 for one hour. Information: sunsetgondola.com
If you don't want some dude singing Italian music in your ear while you're trying to enjoy a romantic afternoon alone with your loved one – rent a Duffy boat for the two of you, or bring a few other couples along for the ride. You have full control of where you go in the Newport Harbor, and can bring some snacks like chocolate-covered strawberries or champagne for a toast. Or you can drive the boat up to one of the restaurant docks and splurge on a meal with a harbor view. Rates are $85 Monday through Thursday for an hour, and $99 Friday through Saturday.

Career Services co-hosted the Law School Preview last night with the Firestone Library in order to give students an idea of what their legal future might hold. For someone like myself, whose knowledge of law school comes from The Paper Chase and Legally Blonde, the preview was an eye-opening experience.
The preview opened with a small talk from David Hollander, who is Firestone's legal librarian. Hollander introduced the future legal students in the room to the phrase "the magic of legal research," and provided information on researching the law. Hollander practiced law for three years, and he said that knowledge of primary (court cases, executive regulations, and statutes) and secondary (Law Review, treatises) sources was essential for every law student.
The majority of the preview was conducted by Michael Herz, a fellow in Princeton's program in Law and Public Affairs (LAPA). Herz explained that he would be simulating an "ordinary class," though he wouldn't focus on the Socratic method, a formerly popular method of teaching law. Instead, he said that the class would be "having a conversation, less that [I'm] grilling you or testing you, or humiliating you." The reports of ultra-scary law professors (think The Paper Chase) apparently have been greatly exaggerated.
The twenty or so students attending the preview had received a packet of cases upon registering for the preview. Case law, Hollander had previously explained, created precedents but not statutes.
Among points covered in the discussion of the cases were the three elements needed to understand a case: the outcome, the justifications for that outcome, and the legal rule that could be extracted. "You don't know what a case means until you've seen it applied," Herz said. In the discussion, students were asked to look for "meaningful distinctions" between cases, or, alternatively, to look for cases where the same justifications could be applied. In this way, students learned how lawyers consider cases related or unrelated.
This is Career Service's fourth year hosting the Law School Preview, but you don't need to wait until it comes around next year to learn more about law school. Keep an eye out for the alumni panel "What Kind of Law Will You Practice?" (Tuesday, April 3, 7:00 pm at Career Services), or schedule an appointment with Lyon Zabsky, the career counselor in charge of pre-law advising and all other things law-related!

NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices are a popular alternative to providing centralized file services to smaller environments. This includes devices such as the Seagate BlackArmor, the DroboShare NAS and the Netgear ReadyNAS Pro. These are inexpensive as compared to an actual server, they require less management and they often come with some pretty compelling features. But one of the primary reasons to buy a NAS can end up being a potential pain point as well: they require less management than a server because they can't do as much as a server can.
For example, the option to replicate between two of them. Most have NAS to NAS replication built in. However, that replication ends up being dependent on having two of them. But what if you just have a machine on the other side of the replication, want to back it up remotely compressed or want to back up to a cloud environment. Well, if it's not the same daemon then you're typically stuck with CIFS, NFS, HTTPS (WebDAV) or FTP. The devices don't typically give you the option to push directly from it nor to run a daemon that non-proprietary device can connect to directly, so you'd have to use a client to do the offsite sync. One example of how to do this would be to use JungleDisk and an Amazon S3 account. JungleDisk would mount the AmazonS3 storage and the NAS storage (all share points). You would then use a tool such as ChronoSync, Retrospect (Duplicate scripts not backup scripts btw) or even rsync to backup the device over CIFS. It's not pretty, it's extra latency and management, but it would work.
The reason you would do synchronization is that if you attempt to backup (a la Retrospect Backup Scripts) then you'd send big, monolithic files over the wire. The smaller increments of data you can send over the wire the better. Another tool that can do that type of sync is File Replication Pro. That would actually do blocks instead of files, pushing an even smaller increment of data over the wire. There are certainly other services. You could even open up the firewall (for just the specific ports/IP addresses requiring connectivity, which is always a potential security risk) and have a remote backup service come in and pull the data sync over FTP, CIFS or WebDAV (if you want to stick with a cloud backup solution), but those types of services are a bit more difficult to find.
The same is pretty much the same for cloud based storage. With the exception that instead of a built-in feature you're either looking for a built-in feature or an API that allows you to develop your own. The moral of this story, if you use a NAS or a cloud-based solution and you want to back your data up, then your options are limited. Keep this in mind when you decide to purchase a NAS rather than, let's say, a Mac OS X Server running on a Mac Mini with some Direct Attached Storage (DAS) connected to it.

People who ate plenty of fish, tomatoes, poultry, cruciferous vegetables, fruits, dark green and leafy vegetables, and salad dressing and who ate limited high-fat dairy products, red meat, organ meat, and butter were 38% less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease.
The study authors pointed out that the dietary habits most protective against developing Alzheimer's are consistent with a Mediterranean diet. This matches up with previous research by this same group, which found that following a diet consistent with the Mediterranean style of eating might protect against Alzheimer's disease too.

"What is the city but the people?"
- Coriolanus
At Shakespeare's Globe Playhouse, the "groundlings" paid 10% of their day's wages to stand in the sun, hands on the stage, eager to hear every play they could afford. They were the great energy and support of the theatre, and the actors loved them.
The Mission
The Groundlings is a volunteer group dedicated to the year-round promotion, support, and encouragement of Tennessee Shakespeare Company's not-for profit theatre and education programming in the Mid-South.
The Vision
To provide the bridge between classical theatre/education and our community's yearning for self-expression, cultural ownership, and personal discovery.
The Values
The Groundlings vision necessitates dedication, dutifulness, and forward thinking. It is intended that we embrace this vision with the following values uppermost in our thoughts and actions:
- We believe that artistic expression uplifts the human spirit;
- We believe that innovation and creativity are a natural unfolding in every individual at every age;
- We believe in exploring, enjoying, and protecting our natural environment;
- We believe in leading productive lives in our community;
- We believe in extending kindness, helpfulness, and enthusiasm;
- We believe that personal responsibility and respect for others are integral to pursuing a common goal;
- We believe in open, honest, and regular communication;
- We believe that well-intentioned mistakes are opportunities to learn;
- We believe that present acknowledgment of personal accomplishment encourages future success;
- We believe that the successful interplay of volunteers' responsibilities ensures a comfortable atmosphere in which to dream, plan, and express.

Does Dell finally get it?
A news item today at PC World heralds some groundbreaking news in the way of GNU/Linux being preinstalled on Dell desktop and laptop computers. So when I wrote in the Open Source Reporter FAQ that (and I'm paraphrasing here) your Grandma wouldn't be using Debian, perhaps I had spoken a wee bit too hastily.
This is not to say that the distro on the Dell machines will be Debian, unfortunately, but the PC World article does mention that "other Linux distributions were also suggested by users, and that Dell will look into possible certifications with other Linux brands across its product lines." All of which means that users may not be locked into Novell SUSE, but that remains to be seen.
But whatever Dell should choose to put on their GNU/Linux boxes, the underlying fact remains that when a corporate giant like Dell — and who hasn't used a Dell, either at work or at home (and possibly both)? — provides the option away from prepackaging solely the Redmond-based digital sludge masquerading as an operating system they've previously offered, you know Dell isn't doing it out of the goodness of their corporate hearts.
The demand is there, and Dell knows it. For all the nasty things I have said about Dell in the past, most (if not all) of it deserved, I now have to hand it to Dell: Maybe they get it after all.
Arguably, and with all the fanfare the news warrants, if nothing else this signals that GNU/Linux has officially arrived as a mainstream operating system.
Further, given a choice between a bloated operating system like the Microsoft's new "Vis-duh" and a more streamlined GNU/Linux operating system that frees up the computer workings for more important things, which would you use (especially on a lower-end machine)?
This is not to say that I'm embracing Dell. On the contrary: I know their products well, having used them in the many office environments in which I have worked over the past couple of decades. In my current job, I use a Dell as a copy editor at the Santa Cruz Sentinel. So let me be frank (and children, you can leave the room now): Dell has always lived up to its reputation as manufacturing hardware that absolutely and unequivocally blows. The fact that Windows-on-Dell can easily be described as hell squared is not lost on many people.
Having said this both here and over the last 15 or so years, however, no one is more ready than I am to give Dell another shot in using a Dell box or laptop equipped with GNU/Linux; crossing my fingers all the while that their hardware dependability may have increased as well.
If anything, improved Dell hardware coupled with Linux could just break me from the habit of spitting on the ground every time anyone mentions the computer maker's name.

Walkmen will be back in action for NBA All-Star event
Listen to The Walkmen on iHeartRadio
The Walkmen are taking a break from their so-called "extreme hiatus."
The band announced back in November that they had "no future plans whatsoever," but now they're set to get back together for at least one night in February. They're booked to play the Rock On Foundation's inaugural Alt-Star Party during this year's NBA All-Star break.
Frontman Hamilton Leithauser admitted in a press release that he and his bandmates thought it might take a lifetime to get the group back together. But he says there was no way they could stay on the bench when they got the nod for the Alt-Star event, which is being hosted by San Antonio Spurs player Matt Bonner.
The Walkmen are scheduled take the stage at One Eyed Jacks in New Orleans on February 15th.

64 Cleveland Police officers disciplined
(Cleveland) - Cleveland Police Chief Michael McGrath held a news conference Tuesday morning to announce results of disciplinary hearings for police officers involved in last November's deadly police chase.
104 Cleveland Police officers of the 277 on duty that night were involved in the pursuit in some way. 74 were recommended for disciplinary actions. 64 of those were eventually charged with violations of departmental rules and policy,
As a result, McGrath says 178 suspension days were issued. The most for any officer was ten days.
Suspect Timothy Russell led Cleveland Police on a high speed chase from downtown Cleveland into East Cleveland where he and passenger Malissa Williams were shot dead in a hail of gunfire.
13 Police officers fired 137 rounds into the vehicle, killing both occupants. Those officers are still facing greater scrutiny and their fates will be determined at a later date.
Disciplinary action has already been doled out to a dozens supervisors, one of whom was terminated.

University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee's School of Hotel and Restaurant Management conducted a national survey of more than 1,000 restaurant goers. The goal of this survey was to pick out key factors that determine success for restaurants. Although information technology use was not included as a major polling point, the results suggest that IT can have a significant impact on satisfaction and a customer's willingness to return to an establishment.
General findings
First, here's a quick look at some of the general findings for American diners' "favorites." Overall, the survey found that consumers spend 25% of their food dollars at restaurants. Their favorite cuisines were (in order) American, Italian, Asian, Mediterranean, French and Fusion. Their favorite restaurants were (in order): Olive Garden, Applebee's, Red Lobster, Outback, and Chili's. The overall success factors for restaurants are the classic "must-haves" for a good dining experience, and rank in the following order: good food is most important, at 17.6%, followed by atmosphere (14.4%), price (13.6%), good service (12.8%), and finally decor (11.2%).

What's Next, Police With Tanks?
In the classic television series The A-Team, the eponymous heroes spend much of their time evading or thwarting the show's stock adversaries, the ineffective Military Police. In a show notable for its lack of blood and gore, the MPs are waylaid by many a car crash, explosion, and unluckily placed boat pier.
How quaint that all seems today, when the creeping militarization of American law enforcement has at last begun to shock the conscience. Although many of us endure perennial mourning and outrage over the "senseless" acts of school shooters, most of us have more or less ignored the routine, all-too-logical bloodshed and injustice perpetrated by out of control SWAT teams, police forces equipped like armies, and cities and towns clamoring for materiel designed for military occupation, not public safety.
Talking heads and professional activists never tire of asking how many children must die before Washington imposes yet another round of constraints on the Second Amendment. But which leading voices wonder how many children must bleed in their own homes before Americans take action to constrain our officials from adopting a war footing in our neighborhoods?
At Salon, Alecia Phonesavanh recounts the latest gut-wrenching iteration of the pattern. "I heard my baby wailing and asked one of the officers to let me hold him," she writes. "He screamed at me to sit down and shut up and blocked my view, so I couldn't see my son. I could see a singed crib. And I could see a pool of blood. The officers yelled at me to calm down and told me my son was fine, that he'd just lost a tooth. It was only hours later when they finally let us drive to the hospital that we found out Bou Bou was in the intensive burn unit and that he'd been placed into a medically induced coma."
As the latest ACLU report on police militarization reveals, Americans are paying their police forces to assault their own communities—in bungling, overzealous, and unconscionable fashion. Sadly, this should not be news to state and federal lawmakers. The Washington Post's Radley Balko, for instance, has sounded the alarm for nearly a decade, filing a CATO study in 2006 and writing a book on the "rise of the warrior cop" last year.

Remove spills immediately; if liquid, blot with clean, undyed cloth by pressing firmly around the spill to absorb as much as possible. For hard-to-remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended. Store your rug by rolling it front side out and wrapping in cloth for protection. Place in a dry, well-ventilated area. Use of a rug pad is recommended. Spot clean with a damp, white cloth, blot to remove excess water. Air dry

Heidi Machul, an architecture intern who graduated from Ball State University four years ago, has her eye on the prize—a professional license. Most people in her position are still racking up internship hours. But by industry standards she's ahead of schedule, having already taken and passed three parts of the Architect Registration Exam (ARE). For her, getting registered is the light at the end of the tunnel. "I don't know if I'll work in architecture forever," says Machul, Associate AIA, who works for Richard Taylor Architects, Dublin, Ohio. "But once I have that license it can't be taken away from me."
By contrast, a talented and ambitious architecture-school graduate, now 40, knew early on in his career that he wanted to design houses, and a license isn't required in his state. Spurred by the confidence of a cherished mentor, he came out of the blocks and never looked back. Along came marriage, children, a principal position at a large residential architecture firm, and then the big leap to a startup. "I'm leading a fast-paced professional life, but the exams are a bird on my shoulder," he says, speaking anonymously. "I've played with the idea of registration being my last accomplishment—I'll be the old guy getting the license."
In between earning a degree and retiring, life happens to architects. They set up shop, hire employees, have kids, and pretty soon they're too successful to pause and sit for the exams. Practically speaking, it's been easy enough for the architecture graduate to thrive without a registration number: He maintains his own office while partnering with a licensed architect on liability insurance and client contracts. It's hard to balance a professional and personal life these days; time is money—and memories. "Do I really want to go to my wife and kids and say I won't be around for awhile because I want to put this label on my back?" he asks. On the other hand, he says he'd be proud to call himself an architect. Psychologically, the missing label looms large.
dreams deferred About half of those who graduate from architecture programs go on to get licensed, a figure that has remained steady for the past 20 years. Lenore M. Lucey, FAIA, executive vice president of the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB) in Washington, D.C., says that every year roughly 5,000 people finish school and about 2,500 start the ARE. She'd like to see more people get licensed while they're in the groove and have the support of peers. Even if they change careers later, she says, they'll have the credential.
Dale Mulfinger, FAIA, of SALA Architects, Excelsior, Minn., agrees but points to fundamental flaws in the system. Once young people graduate they want to tell the world they're an architect. To call themselves an intern or a draftsperson is inadequate given how much effort they've put in. But other than the public persona, there's no short-term incentive for getting the job done. The work they do the day after getting registered isn't much different from the work they do the day before. Neither is the pay: It's a title change, not a skill change. And registration is a milestone that most firms don't celebrate.
Other professions seem to have an advantage on this score. There's a recognized nuance to the shift that occurs when a law student passes the bar exam, for example, or a medical student completes an internship. Law school graduates take the bar before or shortly after they start their tenure with a firm—and celebrate when they're sworn in. Medical students emerge from an internship with a new position and a gigantic pay raise. But an architectural license has no such symbolism. "We don't have a heralded transition point," Mulfinger says. "When I finish my test I might tell a few people and get to change my business card; that's about it."
The drawn-out registration process itself is an obstacle, coming at a time when students are already burned out from the study-and-test cycles of six-year master's degree programs. "Not a lot of students are doing this in three years; it's more like five to seven years," Mulfinger says. "Our whole cycle of time from the start of college to the end of registration is too long." Architectural interns have also put off a lot of things during school—earning decent money, buying or remodeling a house. For women who want to start a family, the architecture title often gets deferred.
Dan Haden, AIA, a principal at Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, Philadelphia, recalls that he boomed through the licensing exam in a day or two in 1977. Now it's organized into many different parts, causing people to string it out over a longer period of time. Whereas divisions such as contracts, specs, and client relations can only be fully understood after a few years of practice, Haden wonders whether other parts of the exam, such as structures, could be dealt with right after school.
Reflecting on the long process, Mulfinger agrees that an internship is indispensable and brainstorms another idea: While it would be impractical to legislate, what if architects tweaked the medical model, giving their interns a four-year contract? If they don't complete the exam during that time, they're terminated. But by then a firm has invested in the person, he counters, and in many offices there's not enough incentive to have staff registered. There's another side to that argument too: "You don't have to be an architect to design homes," he says. "If interns lose their job, they can go out on their own without registering."
Ben Ames, Amestudio, Alexandria, Va., is one of those people who started a practice sans license, but not because of a job loss. His life simply outpaced the registration process. After graduating with a master's degree in 1994, he breezed through the Intern Development Program (IDP) while designing airport projects for a large, multidisciplinary firm, and by 2000 he had passed five of the nine exam divisions. Ames says his employer, Washington, D.C.–based HNTB Architecture, gave interns a $1,500 bonus when they completed the exam. The incentive worked both ways, since the firm could charge clients a higher hourly rate for work done by registered architects. Study time dwindled, however, when Ames and his wife had a son and he left HNTB in 2000 to hone his residential skills. After subcontracting with Robert M. Gurney, FAIA, for awhile, he launched his own business in 2002.
Ames, who is 38, is chipping away at the architecture license. Last summer he passed the sixth test and plans to finish up this year. One motivator is the fact that many design awards programs aren't open to nonregistered folks. An even bigger issue for him is liability protection. Debbie Capallo, CBIZ Benefits and Insurance Services, Severna Park, Md., confirms that most insurance carriers won't even consider coverage for her architect clients unless someone in the firm is licensed. "They would need to set up an LLC or partnership with someone who's registered," she says.

Zac Efron's jaw wired shut after accidental fall
(Yahoo!) - Say it ain't so!
Actually, Zac Efron won't be saying much of anything for a while.
A source confirms to omg! that the actor broke his jaw after slipping in an unseen puddle of water in front of his L.A. home on Sunday and had to have his mouth wired shut as a result.
Efron, who will next appear on the big screen next January in "That Awkward Moment," also had to have stitches to mend a gash he received from the fall.
The hunky star has been having a rather rough 2013. In September it was revealed that he completed two stints inrehab earlier this year to battle an alleged cocaine addiction.
However, after going on a trip with his father to Peru, and celebrating his 26th birthday with a low-key party at theChateau Marmont (that boasted not-so-low-key guests like Robert Pattinson and Joe Jonas), the actor had returned to the Hollywood circuit, most recently participating in a "That Awkward Moment" Q&A. He also supported his co-star in the film, Michael B. Jordan, at a Vanity Fair event just last week.
But it looks like all additional promotion for the movie will have to wait until Efron has recovered.
Get well soon Zac!

Discussion in 'NFL Zone' started by Joshmil53, Oct 11, 2012.
Steelers for me, sadly.
Steelers are not good. They barely squeaked by Philly last week @ home, coming of a buy... really thanks to some generous Michael Vick turnovers. Titans aren't good either.... boring.
Titans are the worst team in the AFC. If the steelers cant beat them, may as well hang em up.
Yawn...Id rather clean the litter box...lol
The worst? I wouldn't go that far.
Sad when I'd rather watch MLB playoffs than pro football.
For some reasons neither of these teams excite me, at all. I cared more about the Cardinals Rams game last Thursday than this.
Titans are better with Hassleback than Locker
The Steelers are looking TERRIBLE.
The Steelers are washed up.
Chris Johnson has got to have Tourette Syndrome.
I've seen it before when he gives interviews, he's always twitching his head and I thought maybe it was a thing where he's trying to get some straggling piece of hair out of his ear or something. Who knows but I've thought for a while he's had it.
Just caught a shot of him in the huddle twitching his head.
I think he just has a nervous tic type of thing.
What happened to Mendenhall?
He decided he was going to crush my fantasy team
Achilles, I think.
don't agree with that call of going for a fg
Now lets see how much heat Tomlin gets for iceing his own kicker.
And anyone else feel for Suisham after he missed the kick? I seriously thought he was going to hurl right there.
How far was it?
He heard that I won in FF last week on a gamble to play him and decided to even the score with a whopper 2.7 points.

Green Day frontman & Norah Jones remaking Everly Brothers album
Listen to Green Day on iHeartRadio | Listen to Norah Jones on iHeartRadio | Listen to The Everly Brothers on iHeartRadio
Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong is teaming up with Norah Jones to remake a vintage country-folk album. They're giving new life to the Everly Brothers' second studio effort, Songs Our Daddy Taught Us, and they've posted the song "Long Time Gone" on the website BillieJoeAndNorah.com.
The Everly Brothers' 1958 release features the sibling duo's renditions of traditional folk and country songs.
Armstrong tells Stereogum.com he discovered the disc a couple of years ago, and "thought it was just beautiful." He says he decided to remake the album because it's "sort of an obscure thing" he felt "more people should know about."
But Billie Joe adds that he didn't want to reproduce the pairing and record it with another man, but thought it would give the disc "a different meaning" if he sang with a woman. Armstrong credits his wife with suggesting he tap Norah as his partner - even though they didn't know each other.
Billie Joe says when he called Jones to pitch the idea, it was "kinda like a blind date."
Armstrong and Jones have titled their version of the album Foreverly, which will be in stores November 25th.

Ramsay Division Draw
Holleran Division Draw
PHILADELPHIA - Women's squash will send its top-six players to the CSA Individual championships this weekend at Amherst. Five players found themselves ranked in the top-32 and will compete for the national championship and All-American honors in the Ramsay Division, while one player will compete in the Holleran Division. This is the exact same qualifier allotments that were given to Penn last season when the Quakers had five players earn All-American status, which the best of any team in the country last season.
Rachael Goh enters the weekend as the ninth-seeded player in the draw. Goh, a junior, will be making her third straight appearance in the Ramsay Division. She earned first team All-American honors last season, advancing the quarterfinals. She is 9-3 overall this season, playing primarily at the second slot on the Penn ladder.
Her first round opponent will be Dartmouth's Corey Schafer. Schafer was ranked 25th in the individual rankings that came out yesterday and will enter the draw as the 24th seed. She played No. 1 for the Big Green this season, matching up with Nabilla Ariffin in both of the team's meetings this season. Ariffin defeated Schafer in three games both times. Goh's opening round match will be Fridat at 11:40 a.m. She will face either No. 8 Elizabeth Eyre (Princeton) or Yale's Katie Ballaine in her second match of the opening day.
Ariffin enters the weekend as the 12th-seeded player in the draw. This will also be her third time in as many years that she has qualified for the top-draw at the Individual championships. In each of her first two seasons, Ariffin has earned second-team All-American honors. She is 7-7 this season with the majority of her matches coming at No. 1.
Her first round opponent will be No. 23 Natasha Kingshott from Harvard. Kingshott played No. 6 at the Howe Cup for the national championship team and won her match at No. 5 against Stephanie Vogel in the regular season meeting between the two schools. That match will get underway 12:20 p.m. Friday. In her second match on Friday, Ariffin will either face No. 5 Julie Cerrullo from Princeton or Harvard's Jennifer Pelletier.
Pia Trikha enters the weekend as the 18th seed in the top-tier draw. This will be the second consecutive season that Trikha has qualified for the Ramsay Division. She earned second-team All-American honors last season, going 2-2 in the draw. This year, she is 10-3 overall, having played most of her matches at the No. 3 position on the ladder.
She looks to be in for a tightly contested opening round match against No. 17 Ashley Tidman of Trinity. Tidman played No. 3 for the Bantams at the Howe Cup and defeated Trikha in the opening round, but needed a tiebreak in the final game to pick up the victory over Penn's co-captain. Their match will begin at 11:40 a.m. Friday. She will have a second match against either No. 1 Amanda Sohby of Harvard or Yale's Gwendoline Tilghman Friday evening.
Yarden Odinak is seeded 22nd in the Ramsay Division draw, the exact spot she was ranked in the latest release. This will be the third straight season that Odinak has competed in the top division. She earned second-team All-American honors at the national championships last season. She is a team-best 12-2 overall, competing at primarily the No. 4 spot on the ladder this season.
In her first round match, she will go up against returning first-team All-American Pamela Chua of Stanford, currently ranked 11th in the nation. Chua played the No. 1 spot on the Cardinal ladder and was defeated by Goh during the regular season match between the two schools. Odinak's opening match will begin at 1 p.m. Her second match on Friday will be against either Katherine Giovinazzo (Princeton) or Danielle Letourneau (Cornell)
The fifth member of Penn's Ramsay Division entrants is sophomore Courtney Jones. Jones is making her first appearance in the top draw of the individual championships. Last year, Jones competed in the Holleran Division and captured the second round consolation championship, going 4-1 on the weekend. She was ranked 31st, but will enter the draw as the 29th seed. Jones went 10-3, competing mainly at No. 5, this season.
In her opening round match, she draws No. 4 Catalina Pelaez of Trinity. Pelaez won both her matches at No. 1 during the regular season and Howe Cup against Penn. Their match will hit the courts at 12:20 p.m. on Friday. In her second match on Friday, Jones will either go up against Alicia Rodriguez Acosta (Trinity) or Cecilia Cortes (Harvard).
Vogel will be Penn's lone representative in the Holleran Division. She was ranked 39th in the country in the latest rankings and will assume the No. 4 seed overall in this draw. She also competed in the Holleran Division during her freshman season at Penn. She has gone 10-3 this season, splitting time evenly between No. 5, No. 6, and No. 7., finishing at No. 6 during the Howe Cup.
With her seed, Vogel will receive a bye into the second round of the championship bracket and play just one match on Friday. In her second round match, she will face the winner of Chandler Lusardi (Amherst) and Ellie O'Neill (Williams). Lusardi is ranked 91st in the country and played No. 1 for Amherst, the 19th-ranked team nationally. O'Neill was downed by Trikha in three games during the regular season match with Williams at No. 3.
Live updates of all this weekend's action will be available through the College Squash Association. Full recaps of Penn's results will also be available at the end of each day when official scores are submitted to the College Squash Association.

Are you sure the drive is actually good?
"the ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of IDE1 master (hda) failed" is showing up every time i try to install this and it happens during the partitioning. I have an IBM T21 12.0GB Hard Drive 9.5 mm, has anyone found a solution, please?
Are you sure the drive is actually good?
I'm a compulsive post editor, you might wanna wait until my post has been online for 5-10 mins before quoting it as it will likely change.
I know I seem harsh in some of my replies. SORRY! But if you're doing something illegal or posting something that seems to be obvious BS I'm going to call you on it.
Yea, that's a pretty old drive. You should be able to pick up a 120Gb ide drive pretty cheap.
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69

By Noah Haglund and Scott North Herald Writers
EVERETT — A month after Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon dropped his surprise announcement about leaving office this spring, speculation has swirled about whether he'll follow through.
The continued absence of an official resignation letter has kept people guessing about when, or whether, the executive will submit written notice formalizing his plans.
Reardon on Wednesday said his official resignation is in the works.
"Yes, I plan on sending a letter as required," he wrote in an email.
Over the past month, Reardon has been as visible as he's ever been during nine years in office. He's made appearances at meetings with political leaders inside and outside of county government. He said he's kept busy tending to county business, including early preparations for next year's budget, airport upgrades, transportation improvements and helping gear up for the $75 million overhaul of the county's courthouse complex.
"All of this work is important internally to a future transition," he said.
Reardon, throughout his political career, has rarely displayed any public sign of weakness. That changed a month ago when he declared he intended to step down at the end of May. His Feb. 21 bombshell came at the end of his annual economic speech to business leaders.
A week earlier, The Herald published a story detailing how anonymous public records requests, attack websites and spoof emails were traceable to Reardon's staff. Those on the receiving end said they were being used to harass county employees and a Gold Bar woman who was seeking to recall Reardon from office.
Reardon has denied directing the activity and defended the right of his staff to seek public records. He has declined reporters' repeated requests to discuss efforts employed by his staff to mask who was seeking the records, using the alias "Edmond Thomas."
In delivering his resignation, Reardon said a series of scandals involving his administration, beginning in November 2011, has damaged his personal life and his ability to govern.
"These false allegations have also taken a tremendous toll on my marriage and our family life," he told business leaders last month. "And, candidly, I don't know how much a family can take or should take. And, the time I have had to spend addressing the myriad of false allegations has distracted me from doing my job as your county executive."
A Washington State Patrol investigation into Reardon's spending in pursuit of an extramarital affair with a county social worker ended last year without charges. The state Public Disclosure Commission, however, continues to examine whether Reardon improperly used county resources for his 2011 re-election campaign.
At the end of February, other Snohomish County leaders requested a criminal investigation from the King County Sheriff's Office to determine whether any laws were broken in the "Edmond Thomas" records requests. Those targeted included nearly 20 people on the county payroll, many of them witnesses in last year's state patrol investigation; harassing witnesses is a crime.
The two Reardon staffers linked to that activity, analyst Kevin Hulten and executive assistant Jon Rudicil, remain on administrative leave.
Hulten has issued contradictory statements about his involvement in the records requests. Rudicil has written the executive's office that he's been treated unfairly because he's a friend and business partner of Hulten's.
Separately, the county also has hired an attorney to investigate Hulten's claim that he used the records requests to compile information that he contends show county civil attorneys failing to properly represent Reardon during the state patrol investigation. Hulten maintains he now should be granted "whistle-blower" protection for his digging.
When Reardon announced his resignation last month, he said the time before it took effect would allow the appointment process to move forward.
Because Reardon is a Democrat, the county charter says the Snohomish County Democratic Party gets to choose three nominees to replace him.
The County Council will have 60 days from the date of the vacancy to appoint one of the party nominees. If they cannot make a selection within that time, it will be up to Gov. Jay Inslee.
State law also requires the County Council to name an interim executive at its next meeting after the vacancy occurs. That could be a temporary fill-in who will serve until the party-driven nomination process is complete.
So far, Sheriff John Lovick appears to be the front runner for the appointment, with widespread support from the Democratic precinct committee officers whose votes will determine the nominees. State Rep. John McCoy, D-Tulalip, also is interested.
Reardon's resignation is to take effect after the official candidate filing week ends May 17. That means no election can take place this year. The appointed executive will serve until a winner is certified in a November 2014 special election for the final year remaining on Reardon's term, which began in 2012. Another election for the full, four-year term would take place in 2015.
Reardon capped his resignation by stating, "I will be making no further comment."
So far, he's made good on that promise. He has declined repeated requests for in-person interviews and has refused to elaborate on his reasons for stepping down.
That's added to the air of mystery at the county.
County Councilman Brian Sullivan and others said they've been repeatedly quizzed about Reardon's resignation plans.
"When you go to Olympia, that's always the question: Did you get the letter yet?" Sullivan said. "And in D.C., too,"

text: It is a challenge to add anything to Ms. Blough's always accurate and complete explanations of things, but I would like to try to add some related information to the southern sense of superiority that she notes: this is the fact that southerners not only felt socially and culturally superior to northerners but also racially superior. As James McPherson explains (with documented quotations) in Battle Cry of Freedom, the south concocted a theory that the southern colonies were populated by Norman-descended Cavaliers, while the New England Yankees were descended from Saxon-descended Round Heads who were fit only for slavery. Southern rhetoric at the time was filled with master race echoes that went well beyond justifications for chattel slavery. They really did believe that one "southron" could defeat ten (or more) "yankees." This is why, as Ms. Blough clearly explains, it was only when they were actually were forced to face defeat that they suddenly "discovered" that they never had a chance. This raises a somewhat related fact. The presentation of the southern fighting man virtually always completely ignores some facts that the members of this group are well aware of: ie., that not only did huge numbers of confederate soldiers desert the colors during the war but that huge numbers of southern men resisted the military draft that Davis instituted (before Lincoln ever did) because an insufficient number of southerners were enlisting "to defend their homes." More profoundly, after the one year enlistments of the first rush of volunteers ran out, Lee saw to it that their one year enlistment contracts were voided (talk about abuse of individual liberty) and converted into enlistments for the duration of the war. If southern men were so intent on fighting to defend their homes and families, they would not have needed to be forced to do so through conscription and the forced conversion of their original enlistments. In short, any version of the war that presents the Civil War as some sort of Wagnerian grand opera, with Lee in the role of Sigfried and with the south suffering some sort of inevitable Götterdämmerung against the evil Yankee frost giants who were destined to win anyway, not only ignores the less romantic facts of the case but has a Lost Cause air to it. -----Original Message----- From: Margaret D. Blough <mdblough1 at comcast.net> To: GDG <gettysburg at arthes.com> Sent: Sun, Jan 22, 2012 2:58 pm Subject: Re: GDG- Lost Cause and Inevitibility Esteemed GDG Member Contributes: George- Many, if not most, secessionists did not see the slave states as being at any disadvantage economically or militarily. The antebellum South was wealthy, both in slaves and "King Cotton", and it saw itself as superior socially and culturally to the "mudsills and greasy mechanics" and foreigners of the North and certainly superior in military talent. They did not believe the North could get itself together enough to resist and they believed that, even if it did, such resistance would be ineffectual. Most were certain that the UK and France would come to the South's support because of their dependence on "King Cotton." There were some factual elements in this belief, primarily the wealth of the South and the fact that, unlike the US government, they did not need to regain control of territory and populations. A lot of the rest of it was making the fatal error of believing their own propaganda, including their portrayals of Lincoln as an illiterate yahoo with apelike characteristics. One of the most unexpected and movingly courageous episodes in Stephen Douglas's life was when he toured the South during the presidential campaign of 1860. It was NOT the done thing for presidential candidates to campaign then and, by the time he did it, it was clear that he could not possibly win. Douglas not only strongly urged the slave states not to attempt secession but not to underestimate his longtime rival. The reason that the "overwhelming resources" belief will get you associated with the Lost Cause is that it was an explanation that Confederate supporters only came up with as defeat stared them in the face. The few pro-slavery advocates who argued against secession and refused to discount the US government and its will and ability to fight were ignored. Regards, Margaret

GSA Approves ORC to Operate on the ACES Contract
January 28, 2002
Contact: Mary Alice Johnson, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON - The U.S. General Services Administration has announced that Operational Research Consultants, Inc. (ORC), an 8(a) firm based in Alexandria, VA has received interim approval to operate on the Access Certificates for Electronic Services (ACES) contract. The ACES contract is managed by GSA's Federal Technology Service (FTS).
ACES is intended to provide identification, authentication, and non-repudiation via the use of digital signature technology as a means for individuals and business entities to be authenticated when accessing, retrieving, and submitting information to the government. It is a key initiative in assisting the agencies' response to such government initiatives as the Government Paperwork Elimination Act, the Government Information Security Reform Act, and the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act. Each ACES industry partner is required to undergo a certification and accreditation process on their ACES systems prior to receiving authority to issue digital signature certificates under this contract. ORC has completed the process and has received interim approval to operate. Final approval will be granted within approximately six months, once ORC demonstrates its continuing compliance in the operational environment.
"Operational Research Consultants is to be congratulated for receiving this approval. In so doing, ORC has fulfilled a number of strict requirements. The ACES program will be enhanced due to ORC's participation," said Sandra Bates, Commissioner of GSA's Federal Technology Service.
ORC's interim approval rounds out the field. All three ACES contractors are now authorized to issue digital signature certificates. The other two companies are Digital Signature Trust Company and AT&T.
For additional information on ACES, please visit http://www.gsa.gov/aces.
GSA is a centralized federal procurement and property management agency created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. It acquires, on behalf of federal agencies, office space, equipment, telecommunications, information technology, supplies and services. GSA, comprised of 14,000 associates, provides services and solutions for the office operations of over 1 million federal workers located in 8,300 government -owned and leased buildings in 1,600 U.S. communities.

Flooding rivers imperil the Heartland
(NEWSER) – The Heartland is under water, with today's expected rain and snow adding to the woes of already-flooded parts of the Midwest, CNN reports. Rising river waters have caused four deaths, forced evacuations in Illinois, and are threatening Missouri, Iowa, Indiana, North Dakota, Mississippi, and Michigan as well. The Mississippi River is expected to peak at more than 11 feet higher than flood stage in Grafton, Ill., this week, and flood watches have been extended for communities along that river's edge as far south as Louisiana. (Things won't get as bad as they did in 2011, however.)

No, I'm not referring to the cable channel of the same name: Two shows (plus a third on the far horizon) deserve special mention. One of them I can't make because, well, it's too far to drive/Amtrak/bus/walk and you know Larry the Free Software Guy doesn't fly unless thrown by someone larger than him (fat chance). The other, I wouldn't miss for the world.
The show I'll miss, but naturally I urge you to go if you can make it: Ohio Linux Fest from Sept. 10-12 in Columbus, Ohio. Stormy Peters of GNOME kicks it off with the keynote, followed by five tracks of talks from open source and Linux experts like Tarus Balog, Amber Graner, Catherine Devlin, Dru Lavigne, Paul Frields, and Jon 'maddog' Hall. This year's OLF also features a special medical track for those interested in the use of free and open source software in medicine — readers of this blog (thanks, Mom) will note that I rant often about the need to develop medical software that is free/open source and it's good that OLF has taken the ball and run with it.
Then if you want to meet me at the next expo I attend you'll have to go to the Utah Open Source Conference from Oct. 7-9 at Salt Lake Community College in — where else? — Salt Lake City, Utah. This growing show, which I like to call "the fall classic" because it's fast becoming a standard in the West between the Southern California Linux Expo right before spring and OSCON in the summer, will have Jared Smith of the Fedora Project giving the keynote. Oh, and yours truly gives a presentation on User Groups 2.0 dealing with the ups and downs of forming a LUG in this age of a new generation of Linux users.
Speaking of SCALE, they've moved to bigger digs — namely down the street to the Los Angeles Airport Hilton — and the call for papers should be made fairly soon. For those who want to mark their calendars way in advance, it's Feb. 25-27, 2011.
See you at the show.
(Fedora ambassador Larry Cafiero runs Redwood Digital Research in Felton, California, and is an associate member of the Free Software Foundation.)

I am not your Mom!
"….you know Larry the Free Software Guy doesn't fly unless thrown by someone larger than him (fat chance)." Another pun? Double entendre?
The Colonel is available to attend the OLF if some kind FOSS
benefactor would make an offer. Corporate sponsorship will also be
We demand a video of the presentation! At least a mp3? Any
presentation will do, it does not have to be LtFSG.
