CNN shows how not to report on the budget
CNN.com has an article [1] with the helpful-sounding headline "Things you should know about budget." But rather than clearly and directly explaining budget basics to CNN readers, the article drives home the fact that the news media fails badly at informing and educating the public.
Keep in mind: this is not a "political analysis" piece, or an article focused on the reception the budget is getting among lawmakers. The whole purpose of this article is ostensibly to give readers the information they need to assess the budget.
So, how does the article fail? Well, for one thing, it makes no effort to indicate how the $3.8 trillion budget breaks down. What portion of that is devoted to defense, to Medicare, to education, etc? CNN doesn't tell us. Take, for example, the article's treatment of the Defense budget:
To pay for wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Obama is seeking $33 billion in supplemental funds for this budget year and $159.3 billion for next year's. Funding for military families would increase 3 percent to $8.8 billion. The president would appropriate in advance $50.6 billion for veterans' medical care.
Notice what's missing? That's right -- there's no indication of what total defense spending is.
CNN does, however, point to several drop-in-the-bucket items, such as "End grants to manufacturers of worsted wool. Annual savings: $5 million" and "Terminate Christopher Columbus Fellowship Foundation, aimed at fostering "new discoveries in all fields of endeavor for the benefit of mankind." Savings in 2010: $1 million."
The cumulative effect should be obvious: Readers are given a warped picture of the relative amount of spending on defense and things like worsted wool grants.
But that's not nearly as bad as CNN's treatment of taxes. Here's CNN's handling of tax-cuts for wage-earners:
Still a little extra in your paycheck
The Making Work Pay tax breaks would be extended for a year. These were part of last year's stimulus and resulted in slightly higher paychecks for 110 million families, the White House said.
Wow. No mention of the extension of the Bush tax cuts for 98 percent of Americans. That's weird. But that oversight is made worse by what comes a little later:
Debt reduction
The president's budget would reduce the nation's debt by $1.2 trillion over the next 10 years. Obama would let the Bush tax cuts expire for high-income families, impose a "financial crisis responsibility fee" on large banks and end fossil-fuel tax subsidies for oil, gas and coal companies. Discretionary spending that is not defense-related would get a three-year cap, saving $250 billion over the next 10 years. Read more [2]
Well, what does "high-income families" mean? CNN doesn't say -- and that's a big, big problem, because time and time again, studies have shown that more Americans think they are "rich" or "wealthy" or "high-income" than actually are. In other words, a lot of people who read this article will falsely think Obama is letting their tax cuts expire. (The proposal would only affect individuals making more than $200,000 a year and families making more than $250,000 a year -- about 2 percent of American households [3].)
Maybe you're wondering if CNN made this clear in that "Read more" link. Even if they did, that wouldn't be adequate -- but they didn't. The link takes you to an article [2] that explains:
Let 2001-2003 tax cuts expire for high-income households: The Bush tax cuts are scheduled to expire by 2011. As it has promised all along, the Obama administration would like to keep those tax cuts in place for everyone except the highest-income households.
It estimates nearly $700 billion will be raised over 10 years by letting the cuts expire for the wealthiest Americans.
"High-income households" ... "highest-income households" ... "wealthiest Americans": those are all vague and misleading phrases -- but that's all CNN gives us. It's almost like CNN is deliberately obscuring the fact that only people making more than $200,000 and families making $250,000 will be affected.

Offsides, Part 2By David Gendelman
This is the second installment of a multiple-part post. Read part 1 here.
Like Savićević, the Croatian Zlatko Kranjčar, fifty-six, had been a successful, offensive-minded player in his day, and one who understood the importance of international soccer. Nearing the end of his career in 1990 at the age of thirty-four, Kranjčar captained Croatia's first national game of its post-Yugoslavia era. As a coach he led the Croatian national team into the 2006 World Cup. He had experience, and a lot of it. When Savićević hired him in 2010 as Montenegro's new manager, it was Kranjcar's eighteenth year of coaching and his twentieth job.
Also like Savićević, Kranjčar had historically favored an attacking style of play, one that resembled the Yugoslavian teams of Montenegro's past. "The former Yugoslav players have the reputation as the Brazilians of Europe," said soccer journalist and Financial Times columnist Simon Kuper. At first glance, the Montenegro team appeared to be no different. Its two star players were strikers: Vučinić, the team captain, and Stevan Jovetić, who also plays in Italy, for Fiorentina.

Felton Back at Practice, Expected to Play Thursday
Raymond Felton is expected to be in the lineup Thursday night when the Knicks play the Miami Heat. This comes after the guard was arraigned on gun charges earlier in the week.
"This is not a distraction to this team," Felton said. "I'm focusing on finishing out this season, finishing out these games with my teammates."
Felton spoke for one minute at practice on Wednesday and refused to answer any questions.
"As far as speaking on what's going off the court with me, there will be no comment. If you've got any questions, anything dealing with that, speak with my lawyer," he said.
Felton turned himself into police early Tuesday morning and was charged with criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree and criminal possession of a firearm.
He was released on $25,000 bail and is due back in court in June.

About ChileView a map of Chile wineries (CHEE-lay)
Photo of the sun break following morning fog over the vineyards of Veramonte Winery (located in the Casablanca Valley)
Notable FactsThe main regions of Chile include Maipo (pronounced MY-poh), known for reds like Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere; Casablanca Valley, a region producing delicious Sauvignon Blanc, as well as other whites & some reds; Colchaugua, an inland district creating amazing red wines from Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, particularly in the Apalta sub-region; and Rapel Valley, settled right under Maipo and producing the same red varietals. A couple of smaller regions to watch include Limari and Elqui, two valleys further north, producing some delicious cool-climate Chardonnay and Bio Bio, an area further south, which is also focused on cool-climate varieties. Chilean wines are growing in exports and more consumers are enjoying the delicious values coming from the country. Red wines of the region, though they cannot be generalized, make the whole gamut of wine quality – quaffable to collectible. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot & Carmenere are the main players, though Syrah is also making a splash. Some of the best reds are blends of the above varieties. As for whites, Sauvignon Blanc is typically crisp, herbal and racy, while Chardonnay is richer in style with full-bodied texture and tropical fruit flavors.

HIGHLIGHTS: Ragone GW TD | Copeland GW Fumble Recovery
PRINCETON, N.J. With first-place on the line and the University of Pennsylvania football team trailing by seven midway through the fourth quarter, the Quakers once again rallied in dramatic fashion and topped Princeton, 28-21, Saturday afternoon at Princeton Stadium.
Senior defensive end C.J. Mooney tied the game, 21-21, with his 15-yard interception return at the 7:31 mark of the fourth quarter. A short while later, senior quarterback Billy Ragone capped his eighth career game-winning drive - and third this season (all Ivy games) - with a three-yard rush to put Penn up 28-21 with 2:59 left. Then with Princeton facing a 3rd-and-goal with 30 seconds left, senior Steve Lias poked the ball loose and senior captain Brandon Copeland fell on the fumble to seal the victory.
With the win, Penn (4-4, 4-1 Ivy) is tied atop the Ivy League with Harvard (7-1, 4-1 Ivy). The two teams play next week on national television (NBC Sports) at Franklin Field. The winner clinches a share of the 2012 Ivy League championship. Princeton fell one-game back in the Ivy race and is now 4-4 overall and 3-2 in league play.
Penn led 14-13 at the half, but Princeton took the lead with a 21-yard touchdown pass at the 6:46 mark of the third quarter. The Tigers converted on a two-point conversion to go up, 21-14.
The score remained that way into the fourth quarter when Penn's defense came up with two game-changing plays. The first happened after Princeton's offense drove seven plays down to the Penn 27. But the Quakers got their boost from senior defensive back Dave Twamley, who found himself in the right place at the right time, picking off a pass in the end zone with 8:59 left for the first interception of his career.
Although Penn couldn't capitalize, they found some momentum. The next big play for the Quaker defense came a few minutes later. Senior defensive end Daniel Ritt tipped a Princeton pass and Mooney picked off the fluttering ball, taking it back for the score. The play resulted in Mooney's first career interception and first career touchdown, as well as Penn's first defensive score of the year. That knotted the game at 21-21.
The Quakers defense then forced a three-and-out. Ragone and the offense started from their own 42 with 6:31 to play. Among the 10-play drive were a pair of first-down runs by Ragone that got the ball inside the Princeton 5. On second-and-goal, Ragone rolled to his left, found open space and scooted into the end zone for the go-ahead score with 2:59 to play.
Princeton started at its own 28 and worked the ball into Penn territory. On 4th-and-4 from the Penn 34 with just over a minute to play, the Tigers converted with a 12-yard completion. The next play - a 14-yard completion - set up first-and-goal. A two-yard rush and an incompletion brought up third down. That's when Lias forced the fumble and Copeland collapsed on the loose ball.
The beginning of the game was just as back and forth as the end.
After a strong start to the game, forcing the Tigers to punt after their opening drive, the Quakers, led by senior running back Jeff Jack, were able to take the early 7-0 lead. Penn drove the ball down deep into Princeton territory and was forced into a third-and-long situation. Jack took the handoff up the middle and ran 17 yards for the score, to cap off the 10-play, 70-yard drive. The score was Jack's third of the season and seventh of his career.
With just over 10 minutes remaining in the second, a Penn miscue - a receiver fell down at the end of his route - ended in a Ragone interception. Princeton proceeded to drive 24 yards in six plays in just under three minutes, ending in a pop-up for a touchdown.
On Princeton's next drive, the Tigers converted on a 4th-and-2 with a short pass that went all 30 yards for the score. After a fumbled snap botched the extra point, Princeton took the lead 13-7 at the 4:45 mark of the second half.
Sophomore Eric Fiore gave the Quakers a big boost with a 53-yard return on the ensuing kickoff. Seven plays later, Ragone tossed a throwback pass to wide-open sophomore tight end Ryan O'Malley with 1:34 left until the half.
Penn was able to sneak into the locker room with a 14-13 lead over Princeton when junior linebacker David Park blocked the Tigers' 32-yard field goal attempt as time expired.
Princeton took the lead back in the third quarter, but it only served to set up Penn's third fourth-quarter comeback this season. The Quakers rallied to win from 10 down in the final eight minutes against Columbia on Oct. 13, and from three down in the final four minutes to top Brown in regulation last week.
The win is head coach Al Bagnoli's 140th at Penn, which ties him for second-most by any coach at an Ivy League school. Penn is also 8-1 all-time in the 15-year history of Princeton Stadium.
Senior Lyle Marsh had 104 rush yards on just 19 carries. It is Penn's first 100-yard rusher since Brandon Colavita had 156 at Yale on Oct. 22, 2011. It was his second career 100-yard game and first since he had 120 at Darmouth during his freshman campaign (Oct. 9, 2009).
Ragone finished with 92 pass yards and 61 rush yards. Junior Ty Taylor had a team-high three catches for 19 yards. Marsh added two catches for 22 yards. In addition to his touchdown, Jack had 50 yards on eight carries.
Penn's defense forced four turnovers for the second straight week. The Quakers had forced a combined three turnovers in their first six games. Senior cornerback Dan Wilk and sophomore safety Mike Laning led the Quakers with 10 tackles apiece - a career-high for both.
Penn and Harvard kick off at noon Saturday on NBC Sports with the Ivy League title on the line. This will mark the 11th time in the last 13 seasons in which the Ivy League title will be decided between the Quakers and Crimson on the season's second to last weekend.

Welcome to Sadie's Hotels
Sadie's Hotels offer comfortable accommodation on the rim of Pago Pago Harbor on the island of Tutuila in American Samoa. Our friendly staff provides the caring hospitality the people of the South Pacific are famous for. With two hotels and two first class restaurants to choose from The Sadie Thompson Inn and Sadie's by the Sea offer a wide range of accommodation to travelers. Nearly every room includes a view; from towering, lush tropical mountains to beach front, to vibrant blue water.
Sadie's Hotels provide excellent amenities for short or long term visits for business, pleasure or both. American Samoa is off the beaten track, stunningly beautiful, far away from crowds and the weather is balmy warm to tropical hot year round. Visitors from all walks of life enjoy the casual atmosphere and easy going Samoan culture.
Being south of the Equator, summer in American Samoa is October through May. It rains often, hence the dense jungle foliage covering the island, but it's not cold and life goes on as usual even in a downpour. An umbrella can be useful though. The average rainfall is around 200 inches a year. Temperatures are high 70's to mid 90's with humidity high enough to curl your hair, but it is the reason we have abundant and beautiful tropical gardens.
Our rooms are air-conditioned, newly remodeled and designed for your comfort and pleasure. Cable TV, phone, microwave and refrigerator are provided and room service is available. The pool and gentle waves on our beach are refreshing.
We host weddings, receptions, benefits and private parties for any occasion. Event catering is available at Sadie's by the Sea or for delivery to your location.
We look forward to serving you. Afio mai, Welcome!
Sadie's by the Sea
Sadie's by the Sea is the only full service, beach front resort in American Samoa, located in the heart of the government and business centers of the island. Sadie's by the Sea is a small, charming resort with first class friendly service.
Our private beach and clear warm water, just a few steps from your room, are perfect for swimming, snorkeling and kayaking year round. Lounge by the pool or doze in the shade of coconut palms on soft coralline sand with a view of Rainmaker Mountain.
Goat Island Café, offers open air, pool side dining for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our onsite restaurant is a popular local place to meet for a meal, drinks or a cold Vailima (a local beer, brewed in Samoa and strong, like Samoans). Here's a sample menu. Food is served island style, meaning big portions, and we cater to the American palate with local favorites on the menu. You can't leave the South Pacific without ordering Spam and eggs for breakfast.
Activities from the hotel include hikes in the National Park Rainforest to mountain tops with staggering views and restored sites of WWII guns and bunkers on well maintained trails. Deep sea fishing from Pago Pago Harbor is practically untapped and high energy dance clubs with live music are nearby. We are fourteen degrees south of the equator. The light, landscape and flora of American Samoa are a photographer's dream (link to galleries). We can direct you to a full range of activities that will make your stay in American Samoa memorable.
Among the amenities we offer is the Day Spa. Relaxing and curative massage, body treatments, facials and nail care. La's restorative, soothing treatments are offered at reasonable rates with many options to suit individual needs.
Our conference room provides seating for up to 100 people with a second floor balcony, sweeping view of Pago Pago harbor and everything you need for your next conference, meeting or indoor event. Catering for breakfast, lunch or dinner is available.
The Sadie Thompson Inn
The Sadie Thompson Inn offers lower priced rooms for business or pleasure travelers to Pago Pago. We have an onsite air-conditioned bar and the best restaurant on the island, and while we are bragging, may we say in the South Pacific. Pago Pago and the business centers of Fagatogo and Utelei are within five to ten minutes walking distance. Amenities include wireless internet, cell phone rental and private conference rooms.
The Legend of Sadie Thompson:
Somerset Maugham, as a young writer, sailed from Pago Pago to Hawaii aboard the steamer Sonoma in 1916, when American Samoa was a recently acquired U.S. Territory under Navy rule. Heavy storms prevented the boat from leaving for Apia so the passengers stayed in Pago Pago, including, as the story goes, Sadie Thompson and a group of missionaries. The events that transpired inspired Maugham's short story Rain, or he was bored and made it up. Either way, it's a great story.
There is evidence though that his lead character Sadie Thompson, a woman who knew how to have a good time, traveled on the same boat. He described her boarding of the Sonoma as a "blond runaway from Iwelei running up the gangplank at the last moment before departure". Iwelei was the redlight district on the outskirts of Honolulu. Sadie stayed behind in Pago Pago and, as legend has it, set up shop to entertain sailors.
There is no deportation record for Sadie Thompson in Pago Pago, but she was mentioned in a letter to Samoan Affairs for running a house of prostitution that catered to U.S. sailors. It is said she called her place of business, our Sadie's Restaurant, the Sadie Thompson Inn.
Sadie possibly returned to Honolulu aboard the steamship Ventura when her romance with a Samoan man was discouraged. No records of Sadie have been found after her departure, but she left her legacy in American Samoa and we kept the name when we bought and upgraded the original building to include modern rooms and the new bar and restaurant .
The Management and Staff of Sadie's hope you will visit us soon.

(yes, I'm ripping off this thread) Some Unity developers report customer complaints because the customer tried to run a Unity game on a less-than-adequate device. The general rule of thumb for Unity is: 1) Android 2.0 2) ARMv7/Cortex CPU (however some ARMv6 phones came with respectable GPUs for their time and can run Unity) Of course, just because a device can run Unity does not mean it can run any Unity game, but that is a separate issue. Some Android implementations or specific hardware may not support Unity even if the device meets the recommendations listed above. The real purpose of this thread is an attempt to list apparently-capable devices that do not support Unity. We can't stop people from downloading apps that they know won't work on their device; however we can at least make them aware of potential problems so they will try the app ASAP and get their refund, and maybe they will give us a 3-star review instead of one star. Please look through the list below and add the missing devices you're sure do not work with Unity Android or only work within specific constraints. Do not work (reason): Samsung Transform with stock 2.1 OS (hardware is capable but kernel bug causes problems) Samsung Galaxy 580 (may crash on complicated scenes that other, similar devices can handle) Samsung Galaxy 5 (similar to Galaxy 580) HTC Wildfire (Armv6 processor, not expected to work with Unity as described above) Work with specific constraints (constraint): Samsung Galaxy S (30 MB limit to downloadable file size, also problems with UI) Samsung Galaxy Tab (30 MB limit to downloadable file size) HTC Desire (40 MB limit to downloadable file size) Samsung Galaxy S2 (Minor but possibly annoying issue: phone may work in 16-bit mode with Unity and show color banding Edit: a workaround was added to address the GS2 graphics driver, I don't know if it was related to this problem or not) HTC EVO3D (Must build with Unity 3.4) HTC Sensation (Must build with Unity 3.4) If a device is unable to load an app because the file size is too large, the device should not see the app on the market at all; however, you can use this information to try to modify an app's file size so you can reach more users.

Over-optimisation: too much of a "good" thing?
So, what's the problem?
Nothing, if you haven't been massively over-zealous about how well optimised your website is. Being vigilant and up to date isn't a problem, the issue Google is trying to fix relates to those link-fiends who have over-used their 'white hat' so much so, that is has turned a miserable shade of grey (In case you're confused, I refer to this post).
Okay, so what is 'over-opimisation'?
In a nutshell, it's the act of doing everything that is possible to optimise your website, in a non-human and bot-like way.
Sure, over optimisation can include (and will probably be identified by inclusion of ) any of the following:
- Scraped, copied web content
- Too many ads on the page & not enough original content and copy
- That fact that your website loads faster than the speed of light
- When all links that are inbound and have identical anchor text
- Infinite forum links
- Hidden text (in a colour that matches the background, so it can't be seen)
- Sites linking to you that are dodgy or malicious in any way
This list is not exhaustive as there are many more examples of things Google might suspect & then penalize you for.
Below, I've included a helpful video from SEOMoz's very own Rand Fishkin that does well to explain what changes should be made to save your site from dropping in the ranks and possibly fading into obscurity online after Google's next update:
Parting words?
Good luck! ;-)

It is probable that there is among Protestants a more obstinate—for I really must say so—a more complete misunderstanding on this point of doctrine than on any other. I say "obstinate" for the truth on this point has been stated so repeatedly that it seems impossible that it should not have been, at least to a great extent, accepted in the Protestant world by this time, had it not been for a firm determination not to accept it, and to regard us as either deceivers or deceived regarding it.

Nathan Aland is not hard to spot.
In the single-file warmup lines, where fresh-faced high school boys take turns receiving bounce passes then laying the ball off the backboard, Aland is the one with the goatee, a patch of white eyelashes over his left eye, standing 6 foot 11 and waiting to dunk.
Because of this, he has been both loved and laughed at by his Murray High teammates.
"They would give him a hard time," coach Jason Workman said with a grin. "He didn't dunk in a game until this year."
That's right. The kid who by 14 had grown taller than his 6-5 brother and the guy who says he models his game after a combination of Shaquille O'Neal and Wilt Chamberlain, never had slammed one when it counted.
But this year, the Spartans' starting center is breaking out and he finally got above the rim.
"Our kids were real excited for him," Workman said. "When that happens ... it really lifts everybody up."
That Aland has been able to elevate himself and his game is a credit to the senior captain's hard work and a renewed dedication to conditioning. In the past, injuries beset the center. He's worn a knee brace since middle school, and his sophomore season was cut short by a broken leg. His focus this year has been on cutting weight to save his joints from extra stress when game time rolls around.
Healthy now, Aland is averaging 16.2 points and 8 boards a game for the 6-3 Spartans.
He's surrounded by good shooters in Chase Topham and Dylan Ross, but Aland is the centerpiece.
"We structure our team around him," Workman said. "We always tell everybody we have to play inside-out. He is the inside. ... He's a handful."
Aland scored 21 and 20 in games against Bonneville and Jordan on back-to-back nights last week. In a game against West early in the season, he had a triple-double with 24 points, 13 rebounds and 11 blocks.
"He's done a lot to make himself better," Workman said. "He's got a soft touch and he's got good hands. He's starting to use his massive size in a good way."
That includes the occasional slam.
With Murray clinging to a small lead last week against Riverton in the opening round of the Jordan Holiday Tournament, Aland helped put away the Silverwolves with a pair of dunks that left the backboard shaking long after the big man let go of the rim.
"There is no better feeling," Aland said. "I love that feeling."

The Romney-Ryan plan, Cohn notes, would cut Medicaid by $800 billion over 10 years.
Cohn did, but only after Sinatra agreed to a salary of just of $8,000.
Cohn took a pair of wrap-around sunglasses from his jacket pocket and slipped them on.
Fame came only after Cohn pressured her to diet, dye her hair, cap her teeth, and change her name.
"Give me two minutes listening to country music," Cohn said.
Sunday came at last, and on Sundays Cohn went round to visit Cicolari.
Do you think there would be any chance for me if I asked for work at Goble and Cohn's?
If you see Mr. Cohn, please express to him my deepest sympathy, or rather, send me his address and I will write to him.
Mrs. Cohn's heart was heavy as she dressed for the same spectacle.
Cohn looked at her, dazzled and stunned a little by the suddenness and conciseness of this resolute announcement.
Cohn (kōn), Ferdinand Julius. 1828-1898.
German botanist considered the founder of bacteriology. The first to recognize bacteria as plants, he proposed a classification system for bacteria based on genus and species.

OAK HILLS -- When an unidentified motorcyclist is released from the hospital, he may want to buy lottery ticket as it appears luck is on his side Thursday night.
The motorcyclist who reportedly collided with a pickup truck as they both drove southbound in the Cajon Pass was tossed from his motorcycle, landed in the bed of the truck and was driven for several miles until the driver noticed the him.
"It certainly was an interesting call," said Officer Devon Boatman with California Highway Patrol dispatch.
Shortly after 8 p.m. CHP officers were called out to a collision involving a motorcycle and a pickup truck, Boatman said.
"Officers were able to find a motorcycle but couldn't find the rider," Boatman said.
For nearly 20 minutes, San Bernardino County Fire paramedics and CHP officers searched for the fallen rider from Highway 395 to Oak Hill Road, officials said, but they were unable to find him.
Around half an hour later, CHP received a call from a person who said a man was in the bed of his truck, Boatman said.
"I think he said (the rider) was banging on his rear window to get his attention," Boatman said.
CHP and paramedics drove to Blue Cut where the driver in the Nissan truck had pulled over and the unidentified rider was still in the bed of the vehicle, officials said.
Paramedics transported the rider to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton.
It's unclear if a previous crash which shut down the southbound lanes of the 15 Freeway south of Oak Hill Road may have contributed to the strange motorcycle collision.
The CHP Victorville station will be investigating the incident.
May is designated as Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, and state agencies are encouraging all motorists to safely share the road, according to a CHP press release. The safety campaign follows a significant increase in the number of people killed in motorcycle-involved collisions in California.

While March Madness meant basketball across the country, the March 21-23 madness at the Maverick Center in West Valley City was all about robots--Frisbee throwing robots.
The FIRST Robotics (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) regional championships drew thousands of screaming fans, cheerleaders, mascots and Governor Gary Herbert, who stopped by to meet Salt Lake City's Utah State University Extension 4-H- sponsored team, 3230 Prototype X.
Governor Herbert was recognized as an honorary mentor of Team 3230 Prototype X for his support of Utah STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) programs. The team presented him with a signed photo and Frisbee and gave him a quick explanation of how 3230 was built.
Each year, teams design robots to compete in a different sport. In past years it has been soccer and basketball; this year it was a version of Frisbee golf with goals similar to those on outside Frisbee golf courses.
Most of the robots employed hydraulic systems that shot the Frisbee against a spinning wheel. With six robots on the field at a time, three red and three blue, the three teams on each side work together to score points or block the other team's scoring attempts.
Though the 3230 Prototype X team failed to qualify for the finals, they plan another attempt at qualifying for FIRST National when they compete in the Las Vegas FIRST Regional event April 4-6.
Team members include team captain Kevin Smith, Trevor Tanner, McKay Todd, Jakob Thygerson and London Flynn.
Mentors include coach Jim French, Marcelle Smith, Jim Cook, Jake Nelson, Janice Nelson, Kris Franz and Heath French.
Sponsors are Rockwell Automation, The Leonardo, JCPenney, Platt, Utah State University and the International Hotel Group.

Lamb Of God release new trailer for documentary
Listen to Lamb of God on iHeartRadio
Lamb of God have released a new trailer for their upcoming documentary, "As the Palaces Burn."
The film was originally supposed to be about the metal band's world tour, but the narrative quickly changed when frontman Randy Blythe was charged with involuntary manslaughter.
Blythe spent more than a month in a Czech prison before he was released on bail and returned to the U.S. He went back to the Czech Republic earlier this year to stand trial, and was found not guilty in March.
Now, Lamb of God is set to share that experience with fans in "As the Palaces Burn," which will premiere at the International Documentary Film Festival in Amsterdam on November 20th. Other theatrical releases are expected to announced next year.

WATCH: Tensions boil over as massive brawl breaks out between Dodgers and Diamondbacks
(Los Angeles, CA) -- Tim Federowicz ripped a three-run double in the eighth inning to lift the Dodgers to a 5-3 win over the Diamondbacks at Chavez Ravine in a game that was marred by a benches-clearing brawl in the seventh inning. After each team had exchanged a turn at hitting a batter, Arizona starter Ian Kennedy plunked Los Angeles starter Zack Greinke, leading to the scuffle. Kennedy, along with manager Kirk Gibson and hitting coach Turner Ward were ejected for the D'backs. Dodgers hitting coach Mark McGwire, outfielder Yasiel Puig and reliever Ronald Belisario were tossed as well in the aftermath. Andre Ethier hit a two-run homer for the Dodgers while Matt Guerrier earned the win and Kenley Jansen recorded his third save. Jason Kubel hit a two-run shot for Arizona and David Hernandez was saddled with the loss.

On October 4, 2011, the faculty of Bucknell University approved an institutional policy on open access publishing that obligates Bucknell faculty members to make all subsequent peer-reviewed journal articles open access.
Open access scholarship makes materials available digitally, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. The goal of open access is to remove pricing barriers (e.g. subscription costs) and permission barriers (e.g. restrictive licensing policies) in order to disseminate scholarship as widely as possible.
There are three main arguments in support of open access:
Open access publishing requires scholars to make a copy of their work available on the Internet to be crawled and indexed by search engines. One way to do this is to publish in a fully open access journal (see the Directory of Open Access Journals for titles in your field). Another way is to place your work in an institutional repository, like Bucknell Digital Commons, which will preserve, maintain, and make available a digital copy of your work. You can also deposit your work in a disciplinary repository (such as arXiv (physics) or the social science research network (SSRN). The process of depositing your work in a repository is called self-archiving.Open access publishing does not require you to publish in specific journals. Many journals and publishers already explicitly allow self-archiving as part of their author's agreements. In fact, approximately 60-70% of the journal articles published by Bucknell faculty are already eligible for self-archiving under their publishers' current open access policies. You can obtain permission to self-archive from other journals and publishers by adding an addendum to your author's agreement, such as the example available from the Scholarly Publishing & Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC). Information about the policies of specific journals and publishers is available via the RoMEO database. Open access does not change the peer review process, and all serious advocates for open access emphasize the importance and value of peer review. Open access is also fully compatible with current copyright laws. Open access does not change the principles of copyright, only how the rights are allocated. Because authors retain more rights, open access gives more power to authors.For additional information on open access see the Open Access Directory, Peter Suber's "Open Access Overview," the Open Access Scholarly Information Sourcebook, and the SPARC website. For Bucknell-specific information, please see the scholarly communications webpage, the library's scholarly communications blog, or contact Bucknell's scholarly communications team at firstname.lastname@example.com.

JKSL is the UK's leading specialist in the identification, control and eradication of Japanese Knotweed. Read More
Knotweed Lifecycle
The old stems may take up to 3 years to decompose, restricting growth of native plants due to stockpiled material. The underground rhizomes are thick and woody and when broken reveal a bright orange centre. They can extend to 2m in depth and 7m from the parent plant.
Preparation of new shoots, getting closer to the surface, ready for quick growth in Spring months.
A small amount of growth can begin in the month of March. As temperatures get warmer the nutrients will be drawn from the previously dormant rhizome system.
JK shoots start to make an appearance, breaking the surface with their spear-like shape and red/purple colour. New shoots rapidly grow due to stored up nutrients in the underground rhizome system. Growth rates of up to 4cm a day.
JK shoots have grown in size and developed from red to a more asparagus looking plant. Purple speckling will appear on the stem. They produce branches from nodes with shovel-shaped green leaves. There is increased activity with rhizome growth.
The canes develop quickly, moving appearance from asparagus to bamboo. The hollow, green canes produce branches from nodes, leaves unroll into a heart shape which are green in colour.
Canes can reach 2- 3 metres in height. Plants have dense clusters of stems with a lot of foliage. Leaves and stems have developed a zig-zag pattern. The leaves of the mature plant are up to 120mm in length with a flattened base and pointed tip.
Plant reaching its full growth. Creamy white flowers form towards the end of the month and hang in clusters from the leaf axils.
The clustered flowers are present to maximise pollination and potential for reproduction. Although seeds are produced they rarely survive.
Leaves start to discolour, turning from green to yellow and gradually wilting. The plant will start dormancy phase, whereby nutrients begin to be translocate down within the rhizome system.
Leaves have dropped off the plant, leaving orange/brown wood-like canes standing. Plants enter dormant stage.
Colour of canes turn deeper brown/maroon as they are subject to harsh weather conditions. Canes can topple over due to strong winds or snowfall. Stem and leaf material decomposes slowly leaving a deep layer of plant litter.

Limb lengthening is a surgical procedure used to lengthen bones, replace missing bone or correct deformities in bone structure. The surgical technique used in our hospital for limb lengthening was originally developed by Dr. Gavril A. Ilizarov in Russia in 1951. In a limb lengthening procedure, doctors attach an external frame to the affected limb. The structure supports the limb while growth is encouraged at the site of a fracture created during surgery. Doctors can now safely lengthen bones up to six inches. More than one stage of treatment may be required for extensive limb deformities or shortening.
Physicians at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children developed the TRUE/LOK™ External Fixation System, a modification of Ilizarov's frame, to treat patients with a variety of limb length discrepancies. The TRUE/LOK™ system requires a less complicated surgical procedure and allows for greater patient comfort during the lengthening process. The patented TRUE/LOK™ system is now used around the world and continues to be improved through the efforts of the Center for Excellence in Limb Lengthening and Reconstruction at TSRHC.
Limb length discrepancies, also known as limb length differences, can be present at birth or may develop during childhood.
Limb length discrepancies, also known as limb length differences, can be present at birth or may develop during childhood. Certain birth defects can result in one limb being underdeveloped and shorter than the other. Severe bone infections can cause one limb to grow at a different rate than the other. Traumatic injuries can also cause one limb or bone to grow slower than the others. Neurological disorders, such as cerebral palsy or spina bifida, can also result in limb length discrepancies.
A doctor can determine the severity of a limb length discrepancy by taking measurements or examining X-rays.
This evaluation is often repeated, sometimes every six months, to monitor the limb length difference in growing children.
Many patients with limb length differences require no treatment.
Often the difference in length is so slight it does not cause pain or difficulty in functioning. When a limb length difference is greater than one inch, surgery may be required. When a limb is to be lengthened, an external fixation system, such as the TRUE/LOK™ system, is placed on the affected limb to allow for growth in the limb and serve as a support while the developing bone strengthens.
One alternative treatment method, which may be used for more minor limb length differences, is to "slow" growth in the longer limb with surgery. This treatment is performed during a child's growing years.

Special Section: Safe Schools
RIALTO - The Rialto Unified School Board vice-president Edgar Montes has directed officials to place a third-grade teacher recorded berating his students on administrative leave.
Henry Elementary teacher Tim Braby was secretly recorded by the grandmother of one of his students calling them unintelligent and asking if they were giving him attitude when they couldn't properly indent paragraphs. A four-minute excerpt of the six-hour recording was posted on the San Bernardino Sun website on Jan. 12.
But Braby remained in the classroom at least through Jan. 16, when a follow-up story appeared in the Sun.
"I was under the assumption that the teacher was already on leave, whether paid or unpaid," Montes said Monday. "When I found out, through the paper (that he was still in the classroom), I immediately called the superintendent and requested that the teacher be removed from the classroom, either doing another job for now, or be sent home (until) after the investigation."
Educators are routinely reassigned or placed on administrative leave while charges against them are being investigated.
"According to the superintendent, he himself was surprised that the teacher was not yet out of the classroom," Montes said. "He assured me on Wednesday that he'd be out of the classroom."
A day later, he was.
"I can definitely confirm the teacher has been put on administrative leave since last Thursday, and since this investigation is pending it would be premature to make any further comment," district spokeswoman Syeda Jafri said.
The board is scheduled to meet on Wednesday, and Montes said he and the other board members will be getting a report into the incident and the district's response.
"We'll be getting more information and hopefully the investigation will be wrapped up by then and we can act appropriately," he said.
Whatever the results of the investigation into Braby's conduct, Montes said the board also needs to take a look at how it handles its affairs.
"The Board of Education really needs to seriously step back and reevaluate ourselves first and perhaps to a reevaluation of some of our top administrators to see what it is (that) has gone wrong," he said.
"I think this is a wake-up call for us to really take a good look at ourselves and see what it is we can do to better ourselves and change the tone for the district."
He met with a group of parents on Friday and plans to meet with Superintendent Harold Cebrun on Tuesday. Montes will push for district-wide training for all employees.
"We have to accept our responsibility and do what we can to prevent this type of situation," Montes said.
The Rialto Unified board is scheduled to meet on Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the Dr. John R. Kazalunas Education Center, 182 E. Walnut Ave., Rialto. (Closed session begins at 5:30.)

Sold Out $72.99
2012 vintage is available for $79.99
Banfi Brunello di Montalcino 2004
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy
Winemaker's Notes
Intense ruby red in color with garnet reflections. Aromas of violets and vanilla, with hints of licorice. Velvety palate, with tart-cherry flavors and traces of spice. Well structured with supple tannins, superb concentration, and good acidity. Persistent finish.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "Has fabulous aromas of blackberry, black cherry and raspberry. Full-bodied, with wonderfully integrated tannins, fresh mushrooms and milk chocolate. Chewy in the end. We will see if this is better than the 2001 with age. Best after 2010."
International Wine Cellar - "Good full, deep red. Sexy nose offers bitter cherry, raspberry, rose petal and a whiff of marzipan. Juicy, sweet and enticing, with lovely elegance and energy to the flavors of red fruits and candied rose. Firm but harmonious tannins frame the palate-coating flavors without introducing any hardness. This suave Brunello really reverberates on the rising finish. "
Castello Banfi Winery
In 1978 John and Harry Mariani, owners of the U.S. wine importer Banfi Vintners, established the award winning vineyard estate and winery Castello Banfi in the Brunello region of Tuscany. A constellation of single vineyards located on ideal sites cover about one third of the 7,100 acre (2,830 hectares) estate. The remaining land consists of bucolic meadows, olive and plum groves, and woodland. Central to the property is a medieval castle that functions as a hospitality center, hosting visitors at a full service restaurant, enoteca and museum dedicated to the history of glass and its relation to wine. View all Castello Banfi Wines
About TuscanyView a map of Tuscany wineries (TUSS-can-ee) Sangiovese. Most of the wine coming from Tuscany is made from some clone of this varietal, but a growing trend, started by the renegade winemakers of those Super Tuscans, is to incorporate more international varietals.
Notable FactsThe most well known sub-districts of Tuscany are Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano (note that Montepulciano here refers to the local village, not the grape variety found in the Italian region of Abruzzi). Wine labeled from these regions is DOC-regulated and Sangiovese-based blends. Quality wine from these DOC areas has been on the rise for decades, with top-notch winemakers and wineries shedding the low-quality image once held for Tuscan wine by producing consistently outstanding bottlings that range from deliciously drinkable to highly ageable. Newer to the scene are regions like Bohlgeri and the Maremma, home to of what are now termed "Super-Tuscans," named for the wine coming from the Tuscany area, but not following all of the DOC or DOCG laws required in Italy. In the 1970's, some pioneer winemakers began buying land outside of Chianti and Montalcino, and planting not only Sangiovese, but also international varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The wine they produced only fit into the lowest Italian category of "vina da tavola," but the winemakers sold the wine for high prices, creating an almost cult following, and spurning a new wine category called IGT.
About Italy
A little ditty about Italy...This country has about as many wines as its had governments. With 20 different regions, hundreds of DOCs and even more indigenous varieties, the amount of wine made in Italy is mind-boggling. Most of the juice, however, remains in the country for thirsty Italians. Wine is food in Italy and its rare that a meal is consumed without a glass of vino. That said, it's not common to find many folks drinking wine without food either. In turn, it's a match, and a mighty good one at that. In fact, it's safe to say that Italian wine is a foodie wine – one that goes on the table for a myraid of meals.
