I included the link to the site that has been working round the clock keeping track of all the info coming in, and what a hell of a job they have been doing updating and just getting the info out.
The counties in green are passed and the counties in yellow are pending, and all the others need to decide what they want to do. But as you all can see the majority of NYS doesn't want this. As always thanks for looking and any residents in NYS in counties not shaded need to contact their local officials and pressure them to make a choice, either your with us or against us.

Down to Hayne and Hepner for Surrey First mayor
And then there were two.
The race for who will become the mayoral candidate for Surrey First is now down to two candidates.
The job for Surrey's mayor is opening this fall, as Mayor Dianne Watts has said she has no plans to run for the centre chair this time.
Six elected members of Surrey First – Watts' creation of a "coalition of independents" – will decide who the group's next mayor will be.
Initially, the three in the race were Couns. Tom Gill, Linda Hepner, and Bruce Hayne.
However, Gill told The Leader Monday he has decided not to pursue the centre chair this election, saying he does not want to take any more time away from his young family.
He also said he'll be backing Hepner.
Hayne said he is still considering running for mayor.
"I've put my hat into that ring," Hayne said Monday. "I expect we will know in a week to 10 days.
"Certainly if the group asked me to step forward, I would," Hayne said. "If the group ends up backing Linda (Hepner), or someone else, I'll support them and we'll just move forward."
Hepner has the momentum at this time.
Out of the six Surrey First members who will be voting on it, Hepner has the support of Couns. Mary Martin and Gill.
If Hayne can secure the support of Couns. Judy Villeneuve and Barbara Steele, Watts may have to break the tie vote.
Coun. Barinder Rasode has already told The Leader she is running for mayor. She will be facing off against the Surrey First victor.
Surrey realtor and businessman Vikram Bajwa has already publicly declared his intention to run.
Hepner said the group will make the results of the Surrey First vote public in a couple of weeks.
The civic election is scheduled for Nov. 15, this year.

Jody DeVere Of AskPatty.com Tries To Educate And Empower
We get an exclusive interview with AskPatty.com founder Jody DeVere
By Ellen McKoyIt's not unusual, even nowadays, for many women to have an off-putting experience when buying a car or having their vehicle serviced, especially when confronted with unprofessional salesmen or technicians. But thanks to Jody DeVere, such occurrences happen less often.
That's because she's a longtime advocate of educating women on automotive-related topics and helping automotive retailers better serve female customers by improving the car-buying and auto-repair experience. A self-described serial entrepreneur, DeVere has a broad-ranging background that includes sales and marketing leadership as well as developing web-based technology solutions for the automotive industry and other businesses. In 1999 after selling her dot.com company, she launched AskPatty.com in Thousand Oaks, California. "My goal and motivation is to empower women on automotive topics and help automotive retailers to attract, sell, retain, and increase loyalty with women customers," said DeVere.
AskPatty.com takes a two-pronged approach. It's a social media site that provides expert advice to women on all things automotive. For auto and tire dealers, collision and auto repair centers, there's the AskPatty.com Certified Female Friendly program. The program teaches strategies to enhance women's experiences in dealing with automotive-related businesses. More than 7,000 automotive retail employees have earned AskPatty's certification credentials.
"The certified female-friendly locations provide women consumers with an automotive retail experience that's based on relationship building, trust, respect and improved communication," said DeVere. The results speak for themselves. Noting that certified locations strive to exceed women's expectations with a high level of customer service, she said, "AskPatty Certified Female Friendly locations surpass the highest level of satisfaction for women consumers."
In her role as the AskPatty spokesperson, DeVere has acquired a high profile. She was first featured in a 2006 New York Times article. "That vaulted me into the media spotlight and transformed my company," she recalled. Since then DeVere has appeared on National Public Radio, Oprah and Friends on XM radio, and has been the focus of numerous interviews. She's also a contributing editor for the Car Channel on Blogher.com and a frequent speaker at industry forums.
DeVere also lends her expertise to various organizations. Currently vice chairman and treasurer of the Women's Automotive Association International, she's also a member of the Car Care Council's Women's Board, the California State Advisory Board for SkillsUSA, and the SEMA Businesswomen's Network .
A single mother with grown children and a passel of grandchildren, DeVere has sound advice for women in or seeking to enter the automotive industry. "There are an incredible number of career choices for women in the automotive industry. Opportunities that range from marketing to technology, and many just require high school diplomas or vocational education."
It's important, added DeVere, to "be Internet savvy, plan your career and go for it. An all-woman networking group can be enormously beneficial to women seeking mentors and contacts who've already succeeded in breaking through the glass ceiling. Attend as many auto industry events as you can. Network, network, and then network some more."

John Suarez in Notes from the Cuban Exile Quarter:
Tiananmen Square Crackdown & June 4, 1989 Beijing Massacre: It was 25 years ago today
In memory of those who stood up for their rights, lost their lives and for those still unjustly imprisoned today in China.
Twenty five years ago today the Communist leadership of China opened fire on the Chinese people. The Pro-Democracy Movement that had taken to the streets in April of 1989 was violently crushed by the Chinese communist dictatorship beginning on the evening of June 3, 1989. By dawn on June 4, 1989 scores of demonstrators had been shot and killed or run over and crushed by tanks of the so-called People's Liberation Army. and the blood of students and workers splattered and flowed in the streets of Beijing. The Chinese Red Cross had initially counted 2,600 dead when they were pressured to stop by Chinese officials and silenced on this matter. Following the massacre an additional 1,000 were sentenced to death and executed. Scores of Chinese who participated in the Tiananmen protests would spend years and decades in prison. The British Broadcast Corporation reporter Julia Hatton identified Miao Deshun, a humble worker, as possibly being Tiananmen's last prisoner.
Liu Xiaobo, the Nobel Peace laureate, who is also a prisoner of conscience currently imprisoned for his continued non-violent activism had already served a prison sentence for his participation in the Tiananmen student protest in 1989. He was again jailed in 2008 for his human rights activism and sentenced to 11 years in prison on December 25, 2009.
Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger persuaded the Bush Administration in the immediate aftermath to downplay the human rights considerations surrounding the Beijing Massacre and to focus on the economic and strategic relationship. Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) published a October 1, 1989 article revealing Kissinger's direct business ties to Communist China and his defense of the regime and justification of the massacre. FAIR reported how on August 1, 1989 this business consultant who also heads "China Ventures" [that engages China's state bank in joint ventures] wrote a column that appeared in a Washington Post/L.A. Times ("The Caricature of Deng as a Tyrant Is Unfair", 8/1/89). In it Kissinger argued against sanctions: "China remains too important for America's national security to risk the relationship on the emotions of the moment." He asserted: "No government in the world would have tolerated having the main square of its capital occupied for eight weeks by tens of thousands of demonstrators." Kissinger's reputation according to Umair Khan who reviewed his 2011 book, On China, describes him as a man whose "reputation is based on his career as a diplomat turned business consultant." This business relationship was not mentioned back in 1989.

It's sincerely mind blowing that a country of just over 300,000 people can have the creative output that Iceland does. That's about half the amount of people that reside in Wyoming, the least populated state in America. But despite its size, Iceland has an incredible amount of internationally renowned visual artists, architects, musicians and, yes, filmmakers.
From Fridrik Thor Fridriksson (whose "Children of Nature" was nominated for a foreign language film Oscar in 1992) to Dagur Kári Petursson (who recently made his English language debut with the Brian Cox-Paul Dano starrer "The Good Heart") to Baltasar Kormákur (who made "Jar City" and is Iceland's Oscar hope this year with "The Deep"), Iceland has no shortage of cinematic minds.
All three of those noted filmmakers were among those with upcoming work being presented at a special event thrown by the Icelandic Film Centre in Reykjavik last Friday. In the midst of the Reykjavik International Film Festival — the country's essential film event — Icelandic Film Centre director Laufey Gudjónsdóttir and a dozen or so of the country's top filmmakers gave a preview of what to expect from Iceland's film community in the next year or two. And it was quite impressive, despite the effect Iceland's economic troubles has had on film funding.
"There's been huge cuts to our film funding as a result of the financial crisis here," Gudjónsdóttir said at the event. "We are unfortunately suffering from a cutdown in cost in a number of productions. This year there's been a record low in terms of the number of films produced."
For a record low, the presentation was still quite impressive. And perhaps this is indicative of what can come from a tight-knit filmmaking community who clearly support and influence each other (that was definitely evident from the way they interacted with each other at the presentation). So from blue whales to ghosts to a handful of alcoholics, here's 11 Icelandic films to watch out for in the next year or two:
Blue Whale
Director: Fridrik Thor Fridriksson
Genre: Documentary
When To Expect It: 2014 or 2015, or maybe even later. It all depends on its titular subject.
What's The Deal: An incredibly ambitious documentary from arguably the country's most well-known filmmaker, Fridrik Thor Fridriksson's tentatively titled "Blue Whale" will take on the world's biggest animal and perhaps the one we know the least about. Fridriksson plans on turning a member of the species — which frequent Northern Iceland waters in May and June — into "the film's DP" by attaching a camera to the whale and letting it film its own life before getting it back via satellite a few month's later.
Cold Spring
Director: Hafsteinn Gunnar Sigurdsson
Genre: Comedy
When To Expect It: Early 2014
What's The Deal: Following up his comedy "Either Way" (which was nominated for 11 "Edda Awards" — Iceland's equivalent to the Oscar — last year, and was recently sold for US remake rights), up-and-coming Icelandic filmmaker Hafsteinn Gunnar Sigurdsson will shoot "Cold Spring" next, well, spring. The film follows a recovering alcoholic who finds refuge teaching elementary school in a small Icelandic village.
Director: Fridrik Thor Fridriksson and Bergur Berndburg
Genre: Documentary
When To Expect It: Early 2013
What's The Deal: Another offering from Fridriksson teams him up with Bergur Berndburg for a documentary about Icelandic painter Georg Gudni Hauksson, who passed away last year. Fridriksson said he wanted to pay homage to the painter in a film that would serve "as a kind of headstone for him."
Horsemen – Saga of Riders
Director: Benedikt Erlingsson
Genre: Drama
When To Expect It: Spring 2013
What's The Deal: Benedikt Erlingsson described his new film as a "love story that comes out of his fascination with horse culture in Iceland." A romantic comedy with horses as the main characters (his words), the film will weave together six related stories revolving around horses.
Metal Head
Director: Ragnar Bragason
Genre: Drama
When To Expect It: 2013
What's The Deal: Iceland indeed has metal heads, and filmmaker Ragnar Bragason is living proof. His new film will pay tribute to the refuge he found in metal culture as a child growing up in remote Iceland. Filming starts next month, so look for what Bragason descibes as a "a story of a girl, heavy metal and cows" on the film festival circuit next year.
Rocket Man
Director: Dagur Kari Petursson
Genre: Drama
When To Expect It: 2013
What's The Deal: Dagur Kari Petursson follows up his English language debut "The Good Heart" with "Rocket Man," the story of a 43 year old introvert who still live with his mother until a young girl and a "bubbly woman about his age" unexpectedly enter his world and shake things up.
Silence of the Grave
Director: Baltasar Kormakur
Genre: Drama
When To Expect It: 2013
What's The Deal: Before directing Mark Wahlberg in "Contraband," Baltasar Kormakur made "Jar City," one of the most well known Icelandic films of the past decade. He's returning to the same characters of that film with "Silence of the Grave," an adaptation of "Jar City" novelist Arnaldur Indridason's sort-of-sequel. With a considerably higher budget than "Jar City," the film is set during World War II in Iceland, and should be ready for early 2014.
Spooks and Spirits
Director: Agust Gudmundsson
Genre: Black comedy
When To Expect It: 2013
What's The Deal: It turns out 70% of Icelanders believe in ghosts, and director Agust Gudmundsson suggested that's reflected in the country's cinema. "The only thing that unites Icelandic film is superstition and unexplained things," it was said at the presentation. His new film "Spooks and Spirits" is certainly an example of this, with the tagline "living with your parents can be trying… especially when they're dead."
Staying Alive
Director: Fridrik Thor Fridriksson
Genre: Drama/Comedy
When To Expect It: Early 2014
What's The Deal: The third and final film on this list from Icelandic workhorse Fridriksson is a narrative film. When he introduced the film, a lesbian love story that follows a deeply closeted and unemployed woman who frequents the funeral of strangers, Fridriksson noted that every single film he's made has involved funerals in some capacity.
The Winner
Director: Gudrun Ragnarsdottir
Genre: Drama
When To Expect It: Late 2013
What's The Deal: A first feature from Icelandic artist Gudrun Ragnarsdottir, "The Winner" follows six year old twins (a boy and a girl) who are sent to a countryside childrens home when their parents marriage falls apart. A graduate of CalArts, Ragnarsdottir said her debut film will start production next year.
Director: Marteinn Thorsson
Genre: Drama
When To Expect It: 2013
What's The Deal: "All films in Iceland are low budget, but this film is very low budget," laughed "XL" lead actor Olafur Darri Olafsson as he presented scenes from the nearly complete film. Following a member of Icelandic parliament who is ordered to enter rehab by the Prime Minister (but then instead goes on a massive bender where everything goes wrong), the clips suggested a black comedy that only Icelanders could make.

Other: Xerox Pilot operating system with Mesa as the primary programming language.
There's at least one more camp:
* Believes climate change is occurring and it's anthropogenic. Don't think currently-proposed huge, centralized-government-promoting solutions are good ideas.
Hard to say, isn't it, without knowing exactly what cap and trade rule is being proposed. Yet, without knowing any details, you do claim certainty.
Actually, many African nations are looking toward increased industrialization as their way out of poverty. They were some of the loudest dissenters against emissions controls at the world global warming summits.
Yes, exactly. It can be really interesting to work on software that would actually be boring to use. And it can be really boring or stressful to work on computer games that would be really fun to play.
And Sony-Ericsson's market share in the phone business isn't doing that well. If his company goes broke, what happens to his pleasant job.
Look, nobody invented competition (which folks on this thread have been calling "capitalism"). It's just the natural state of the world.
Two replies to this:
* Capitalism or free enterprise or whatever you want to call it isn't really a human-invented economic system. "Capitalism" is just the label that Karl Marx successfully slapped on naturally-occurring economic competitive and cooperative activity among humans.
* What planned, invented economic system would even concern itself with something as non-life-essential as trying to provide a fair, pleasant life to all game developers? A central planner wouldn't even give most game developers a chance to try their ideas out. Have you ever seen the websites showing the toys that the U.S.S.R. toy companies foisted on poor little Soviet children?
You're confusing two different lines of argument. One questioning whether anthropogenic climate change is occurring. The second questioning proposed political solutions to climate change. It's understandable that you confuse the two because there is overlap in the groups of people making the two arguments, but not complete overlap.
The important point is that the second line of questioning is perfectly legitimate. You can't just brush off questions about whether proposed political solutions are a good idea or not by lumping everyone into the category of "denier".
"The Bad Astronomer". You're Phil Plait, right? I've heard you interviewed many times on the Skepticality podcast. I think you're a great guy and on "the side of the angels", BUT...
You seem to have the same mental block a lot of skeptics have when it comes to politics. The climate change debate is about more than whether the science is correct. The science may well be correct, but the political solutions proposed by politicians may be bad ideas. They are SEPARATE QUESTIONS. One can be a supporter of science, but still skeptical about politics.
The Climategate scandal is also about more than whether this or that scientist deliberately engaged in unethical conduct. It has also called into question whether there was just plain old incompetence involved, not necessarily with any deliberate malice.
A couple of questions:
* Who are these people who know what strong regulations should be put in place to make the economy work? How do we tell them apart from your average person walking around?
* Have you heard of the Sarbanes–Oxley Act? Which administration put this huge expansion of business regulation in place?
They better make sure I can get dim sum for breakfast, sushi for lunch, and burritos for dinner, or I ain't going there.
We've been using a new methodology at work where we keep track of the hours of actual productivity, not counting all the distractions. I get an average of 13 hours in per week.

Wrenching on the board. I need to install studs and wing nuts. LOL
RC surfing You havn\'\'t lived untill you rc surfed, give it a try!
If your kyosho has the stainless steel brackets that hold the deck screws
it should be easy to change over to a wing nut system.
Just get some 5 mm threaded bolts long enough to mount
under the the brakets (using the holes the bracket already has)
and able to go thru the deck lid, then epoxy them in or tighten them with hex nuts.
Then get some ss washers to go over the rubber seal washers and install wing nuts.
just have to make sure the washer under the wing nut keeps water out.
I haven't tried it, or ever seen it done, but in theory
it should work great....
Yes it does have stainless steel brackets. I will give that a try. Good idea. I was thinking a electric screwdriver would help too. The old wrist get sore after a while. LOL , Hey good luck with the new board. It really looks cool. And I bet it handels as well or better than the kyosho board. I was digging around in my old rc marine box and found a Tekin 4-32 Marine ESC. The thing still works. Tekin makes very good stuff. I hope the get back into the marine speedos again.
RC surfing You havn\'\'t lived untill you rc surfed, give it a try!
Thanks for Thumbs up on the new board. It takes a lot more time to make them than I thought it would.
The One thing a like about it, is I finally have some control over the Supply and Production making the boards in house.
It was difficult to keep supply for the boards coming from Asia, and having to depend on them...
The Electric Screwdriver is a must have.
Last week I spent Surfing San Clemente with Maui John and his friends...
I missed out on a lot of cool photos since I stripped the mount on my camera.
John gave me some footage shot from his Go Pro at our session at the Strands...
I managed to pull out these photos from the first video file...
Randy's Surfer
A photo of Slash doing his thing...
Poor John...we were just dropping in on him all morning, he was fending us off with a very large stick that his GoPro was mounted on.
I am impressed by the quality of the photos taken from the actual video...opens new possibilities for sure.
Will post more as I go through the rest of the "thrown away" footage...wish I could have saved previous days with InDaTube at State Park...
Hey ALL !
Been away on our family farm for a brief while ...............plenty just keeps happening on this great forum....... awesome stuff !

Last week we were at Lowers Surfing 2-3 foot surf...I noticed a Japanese Photographer with a real nice Canon Lens...I'm a Canon kinda guy so I walked up and introduced myself and handed him one of my cards...saying if I happen to get in the way of your camera will you shoot me a photo or two...
Maui John later noticed a stuck on the side of his $10,000 lens...he was there to photograph a couple Japanese groms that were just tearing it up!
No way was he interested in taking photos of us...commented MJ
Hayato sent me an email today...
This is Hayato,photographer.
I took a super cool pictures on that day!
So, I send these for you.
See you at Lowers again!

Yep...photographers, no matter how jaded or feed up with people asking for photos, cannot help themselves when they find themselves in the presence of a Rc Surfer...
kitekook The same thing happen to me too. There was a wedding on the beach. While they were waiting for the bride to show up. The wedding photographer walked over and snapped a few action shots of my RC surfer.

text: In just four generations, we've massively slashed human mortalityTim Barribeau10/19/12 10:50amFiled to: agingEvolutionScienceScitweetshutterstockanthropologyHealth52EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkWe're living longer — that's no surprise. But what is astonishing is just how much longer we're living than our predecessors, and how short of a time it's taken to happen. According to new research in PNAS, the last four generations of humans have seen an improvement in mortality that outdoes any of the previous 8,000 generations.AdvertisementThe research compared modern human lifespans with ethnographically researched hunter-gatherer tribes, and they found that youth mortality is now 200 times lower than it was in 1900. In fact, the changes are so dramatic, that a 30-year-old hunter-gatherer had the same mortality rate as a modern 72-year-old.Overall, life expectancy was boosted by about 165% from hunter-gatherers to modern Swedes, which amounts to an improvement of 12% per generation. The bizarre thing is that the average lifespan of a hunter-gatherer was actually closer to that of a chimpanzee than a modern human. The concerted improvement in human lifespans really took off in the early 20th century, as the researchers point out:AdvertisementBefore the late 1800s, even humans in the lowest-mortality nations were not experiencing mortality much lower than was typical during most of human evolution.This level of mortality reduction is unique, and is thought to be linked to environmental improvements. Food and medical treatment are now available on levels never before imagined, and it raises questions if the same dramatic improvements can happen with other species, and if the extension of the human lifespan will continue at this same pace. As the authors conclude:What is the underlying explanation for this extraordinary plasticity? Why does the human genome give humans a license to drastically reduce mortality by nongenetic change? Are other species capable of comparable levels of plasticity? For how long will life expectancy continue to rise and by what means?Image: Wavebreakmedia/Shutterstock

Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 Administrator's Configuration File Reference |
Chapter 5
MIME TypesThis chapter discusses the MIME types file.
The sections are:
IntroductionThe MIME types file in the config directory contains mappings between MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) types and file extensions. For example, the MIME types file maps the extensions .html and .htm to the type text/html:
type=text/html exts=htm,html
When the Sun ONE Web Server receives a request for a resource from a client, it uses the MIME type mappings to determine what kind of resource is being requested.
MIME types are defined by three attributes: language (lang), encoding (enc), and content-type (type). At least one of these attributes must be present for each type. The most commonly used attribute is type. The server frequently considers the type when deciding how to generate the response to the client. (The enc and lang attributes are rarely used.)
The default MIME types file is called mime.types.
Determining the MIME TypeDuring the ObjectType step in the request handling process, the server determines the MIME type attributes of the resource requested by the client. Several different server application functions (SAFs) can be used to determine the MIME type, but the most commonly used one is type-by-extension. This function tells the server to look up the MIME type according to the requested resource's file extension in the MIME types table.
The directive in obj.conf that tells the server to look up the MIME type according to the extension is:
ObjectType fn=type-by-extension
If the server uses a different SAF, such as force-type, to determine the type, then the MIME types table is not used for that particular request.
For more details of the ObjectType step, see the Sun ONE Web Server 6.1 NSAPI Programmer's Guide.
How the Type Affects the ResponseThe server considers the value of the type attribute when deciding which Service directive in obj.conf to use to generate the response to the client.
By default, if the type does not start with magnus-internal/, the server just sends the requested file to the client. The directive in obj.conf that contains this instruction is:
Service method=(GET|HEAD|POST) type=*~magnus-internal/* fn=send-file
By convention, all values of type that require the server to do something other than just send the requested resource to the client start with magnus-internal/.
For example, if the requested resource's file extension is .map, the type is mapped to magnus-internal/imagemap. If the extension is .cgi, .exe, or .bat, the type is set to magnus-internal/cgi:
If the type starts with magnus-internal/, the server executes whichever Service directive in obj.conf matches the specified type. For example, if the type is magnus-internal/imagemap, the server uses the imagemap function to generate the response to the client, as indicated by the following directive:
Service method=(GET|HEAD) type=magnus-internal/imagemap fn=imagemap
What Does the Client Do with the MIME Type?The Service function generates the data and sends it to the client that made the request. When the server sends the data to the client, it also sends headers. These headers include whichever MIME type attributes are known (which is usually type).
When the client receives the data, it uses the MIME type to decide what to do with the data. For browser clients, the usual thing is to display the data in the browser window.
If the requested resource cannot be displayed in a browser but needs to be handled by another application, its type starts with application/, for example application/octet-stream (for .bin file extensions) or application/x-maker (for .fm file extensions). The client has its own set of user-editable mappings that tells it which application to use to handle which types of data.
For example, if the type is application/x-maker, the client usually handles it by opening Adobe® FrameMaker® to display the file.
Syntax of the MIME Types FileThe first line in the MIME types file identifies the file format and must read:
#--Sun Microsystems MIME Information
Other non-comment lines have the following format:
type=type/subtype exts=[file extensions]
Sample MIME Types FileHere is an example of a MIME types file:

Oh, the idea of ripping back that cardie makes me feel a bit faint. I'd recommend distributing the decreases across the whole yoke because they'll be much less noticeable, and you don't want so many extra stitches under the arms (unless the pattern calls for you to cast on more underarm stitches, in which case you could probably fudge it). Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOH NORO! YAY! and such great colours! I am admiring your knitting progress..can you believe I have been stubbornly stuck at 8.5 rows to go for way to long now...yuk!
It is definitely time for an adventure into dpn's for you it is a bit of a muddle for the first 4 rows or so...but then it is such fun...as long as no helpers pull one out for you! lol!Always busy, Kate and doing such inspiring and lovely stuff. I like that blue flower-print fabric. I remember we had similar sheets when we stayed at my Grandma's as children. It's such a happy print and so nice to see blue for girls. Cappers loves blue but it's sadly hard to find in 'girly' prints!! x
Thanks so much for stopping by...
I do read every single comment you leave and appreciate it very much, but I should let you know that I can be a wee bit on the useless side when replying to comments, that's just me, everyday life sometimes gets in the way....so I'll apologise now, just in case.

The MVPâ"¢ series debuted with three panels, aptly named by their pixel pitch: MVPâ"¢37.5 [link: http://www.chauvetlighting.com/mvp-37-5.html], MVPâ"¢18 [link: http://www.chauvetlighting.com/mvp-18.html] and MVPâ"¢12 [link: http://www.chauvetlighting.com/mvp-12.html]. All three panels employ tri-colored SMD LEDs, which provide better resolution and wider viewing angles, and include Neutrik® powerCON® and etherCON® power and data connectors. The semi-transparent panels feature a breathable, flow-through design well suited for temporary outdoor installations. All three panels measure 23.62 inches by 23.62 inches (600 millimeters by 600 millimeters). Additionally, all three modular video panels share the same mounting hardware and can connect to form a single wall of mixed resolutions. This offers great flexibility for a designer to access several different pixel pitches within one interlocked wall of panels.
"We are incredibly excited about the release of the MVPâ"¢ Series," said CHAUVET® Business Development Manager for Production/Contractor, Dwight Slamp. "All of the clients I met with at the show were extremely surprised when they saw how easy and fast it was to use the mounting hardware on all of the panels. They found it to be much easier and cleaner than the competition."
Q-Washâ"¢ 260-LED is a fast and compact LED moving head that serves as an effective wash light and mid-air beam effect fixture. It is extremely bright and can punch through almost any environment with 37 high-power RGB LEDs and a narrow 6-degree beam angle.
The WELLâ"¢ is a wireless LED luminaire specifically designed as a self-contained uplight. Powering each WELLâ"¢ wash light are 12, 3W tri-color LEDs powered by a 12V battery which provides up to 12 hours of continuous operation. The convenient road case also serves as a charger for all six units. Simply plug it in and charge all the units simultaneously. For control, standard DMX ports are available, as well as a pre-installed Wireless Solution W-DMX receiver.

Do you want to make Ohio.com your homepage?
XOn its web site, Sports Illustrated published the results of its investigation into illegal benefits players have received under Ohio State coach Jim Tressel, who resigned Monday.
According to the story, Buckeyes players have been trading memorabilia for tattoos since the second of Tressel's 10 seasons in Columbus and 28 players are involved, not the six who have been suspended for five or one game in 2011. SI's report also said some players traded memorabilia for marijuana and one received a Chevy truck for a watch and Rose Bowl tickets. Some of the items bore Tressel's signature, according to the story.
The violations occurred at Fine Line Ink, the parlor that was raided during a federal drug trafficking investigation and set off the scandal, and at now-closed Dudley'z Tattoos & Body Piercing. An employee at Dudley'z estimated that at least 15 players violated NCAA rules there, including former running back Maurice Clarett.
Current players named by SI who have not been previously implicated include defensive back C.J. Barnett, linebacker Dorian Bell, running back Jaamal Berry, running back Bo DeLande, defensive back Zach Domicone, linebacker Storm Klein, linebacker Etienne Sabino, defensive tackle John Simon and defensive end Nathan Williams. Two others selected in the April draft -- safety Jermale Hines and cornerback Devon Torrence of Canton South -- were alleged by the magazine to have made at least one transaction at the parlor, although both denied the allegations. Torrence's agent, Jim Ivler, told SI his client "is adamant that the allegations are false. ... He can tell you where he got all his tattoos and it was not [at Fine Line Ink]."
Others named were cornerback Donald Washington, running back Jermil Martin, defensive end Robert Rose, receiver Ray Small, defensive end Thaddeus Gibson, wide receiver Lamaar Thomas and defensive lineman Doug Worthington. Small admitted his transgressions to Ohio State's newspaper, The Lantern, last week. Rose, a product of Cleveland's Glenville High School, confessed he needed money and saw no other options.
"I knew how much money that the school was making," Rose told SI. "I always heard about how Ohio State had the biggest Nike budget. I was struggling, my mom was struggling. ... It was just something that I had to do. I was in a hard spot. ... [Other] guys were doing it for the same reasons. The university doesn't really help. Technically we knew it was wrong, but a lot of those guys are from the inner city and we didn't have much, and we had to go on the best we could. I couldn't call home to ask my mom to help me out."
Quarterback Terrelle Pryor, one of five players suspended for the first five games next season, is alleged to have traded more than 20 items, which prompted an employee of the parlor to question where Pryor got so much gear. The magazine reported that Pryor responded, "I get whatever I want."
Martin is alleged to have given Fine Line's owner Ed Rife a watch and four tickets to the 2010 Rose Bowl in exchange for a Chevy Tahoe.
The SI investigation also details illegal benefits received by quarterback Ray Isaac when Tressel coached at Youngstown State.

In fact, some folk around the web seem kind of upset at the idea. But wait a second! Bieber tweeted this earlier today, too:Could be unrelated; maybe he's just also doing some Funny or Die gag.

HBO has picked up Veep, a D.C.-set comedy pilot about a female Vice President of the U.S. from British comedian, writer and director Armando Iannucci. Julia Louis-Dreyfus is in talks for the lead in the project, set "very near the White House" and centered on former Senator Selina Meyer who finds being Vice President is nothing like she expected and everything everyone ever warned her about. Iannucci will co-write and direct the pilot as well as executive produce with Chris Godsick and Frank Rich under the New York Times columnist's deal with HBO. Iannucci has long political satire experience. His popular and BAFTA-winning British comedy series The Thick of It satirizes the inner workings of the British government. (Ianucci is writing Veep with one of his top writers on that series, Simon Blackwell). The Thick of It spawned the 2009 feature spinoff In the Loop starring Tom Hollander and James Gandolfini that earned an Oscar nomination for its script, co-written by Iannucci and Blackwell. ABC attempted to adapt the series during the 2006-07 development cycle with Mitch Hurwitz. The project went to pilot, which was directed by Christopher Guest and starred John Michael Higgins and Oliver Platt. After ABC passed on the pilot, several other networks, including HBO expressed interest, and Iannucci had conversations with the pay cable channel. By his reaction to the ABC pilot, he appears much better suited for cable. "It was terrible...they took the idea and chucked out all the style. It was all conventionally shot and there was no improvisation or swearing," he said of the ABC version. He won't have any problem with swearing on HBO.
Seinfeld alumna Louis-Dreyfus has been in high demand after her CBS comedy The New Adventures of Old Christine ended its 5-season run in May, with a number of writers courting her to star in a new series project. She has had a steady presence at HBO where she has recurred on Larry David's Curb Your Enthusiasm playing herself. Iannuci and Louis-Dreyfus are repped by CAA. In addition to Veep, HBO has been close to picking up another female-centered comedy pilot, Kate Robin's Fall/Spring starring Tea Leoni.

Downing Street and the Department for Education are working on a secret blueprint to "nationalise" schools to expand state school capacity and tackle overcrowding. The plan, which comes ahead of an education White Paper to be published later this month, is likely to raise fears about the establishment of a two-tier education system.
The Department for Education is believed to be resisting any return to selection. But the plan to voluntarily "nationalise" small independent schools that are close to overcrowded state schools will ring alarm bells among backbench Labour MPs.
The Government believes lack of capacity in the state sector could be addressed by taking over neighbouring private or faith schools. These voluntarily "nationalised" schools could then be expanded, as well as sharing their playing fields and facilities.
In a radical reform of education policy, the Government is also looking at extending the use of private sector involvement in schools with a plan for "city academies lite", dubbed "Boots schools" by Whitehall. Companies such as Boots, Kellogg's or Toyota could be given a stake in the success of the school, while not running them.
Private schools that agree to be taken over by the state sector "would not be able to select", according to sources at the Department for Eduction. But private faith schools that come into the state sector "could give some preference" to pupils of a particular religion.
"We are looking at taking independent schools into the state sector," one source said. "A lot of independent schools might not be interested, but a lot might. It would be voluntary. We would take the school over. They would run it but we would fund it."
Private schools that came into the state system would take new pupils for free while existing pupils would no longer pay fees.
In a major speech yesterday, Mr Blair said that being in government meant making "tough decisions that offend people", as he signalled his intention to press ahead with the next stage of reform.
"It means aiming for respect rather than affection. It means asking people to change not in theory but in reality. It means decision weighted not in argument and counter-argument, but in the pounds in people's pockets," he said.
The White Paper is also expected to include proposals to give free bus and train tickets to children from low-income backgrounds, helping them to travel to good schools.
Ruth Kelly, the Secretary of State for Education, will tomorrow make a keynote speech stressing the need for more one-to-one tuition to improve standards in English and maths.

PITTSGROVE, N.J. (AP) – Police say two young cousins camping with their families have been killed in New Jersey after a tree fell on their tent during a summer storm.
The state Department of Environmental Protection says the two boys, ages 2 and 7, were killed early Saturday at Parvin State Park in southwestern New Jersey's Salem County.
Authorities say the boys' families had been camping at adjacent sites when the storm hit, and the families decided to huddle together in one tent. They say the heavy winds and rains from the storm snapped a pine tree, which then fell on the families' tent.
The boys suffered serious injuries and died. They were from Millville and Franklin Township.
Authorities are investigating.

Google may be eyeing Bakery Square 2.0 space
January 7, 2014 9:50 PMOver the past two years, Google has twice increased its presence at Bakery Square in the East End. Now, the construction of an office building across the street could usher in yet another expansion for the search engine operator.
Google appears to be the leading candidate to occupy at least part of a new six-story office building being built by developer Walnut Capital at the site of the former Reizenstein Middle School.
The 218,000-square-foot building along Penn Avenue will be the anchor for the developer's Bakery Square 2.0 project, which includes a mix of office space, apartments and townhouses.
It will be connected to Bakery Square, the former Nabisco plant redeveloped by Walnut Capital, via a two-level sky bridge over Penn, providing Google with a visible -- and practical -- link to extend its campus if it chooses to do so.
But if another Google expansion in Pittsburgh is in the works, Gregg Perelman, Walnut Capital's managing partner, wouldn't say. He had no comment when asked if Google had any interest in the new space.
However, a source with knowledge of the situation said that the Mountain View, Calif.-based company could take at least one third of the new building and perhaps more.
Google spokeswoman Rebecca Ginsberg Rutkoff said the company doesn't comment on individual real estate transactions.
If the company does move into the new building, it will mark its third expansion since moving into Bakery Square in Larimer in 2011.
That December, a month after opening a 40,000-square-foot office in the development, Google leased an additional 70,000 square feet. Last year, Google took another 50,000 square feet of space and added 75 employees.
Another expansion here would not be surprising. Google has been beefing up its presence in New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Seattle.
In fact, Bloomberg News reported that Google and other growing technology companies have been increasing their space while financial firms and other office users have cut back.
Mr. Perelman said Walnut Capital has talked to the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University about expanding their presence at Bakery Square. He said the goal of Bakery Square and Bakery Square 2.0 is creating jobs.
"It's all about job growth for us, the opportunities that we have. These are new jobs to Pittsburgh. It's not shuffling jobs. It's not a company relocating. We're talking about new jobs, new people paying income tax, paying state taxes, paying city taxes who live in the city and who work in the city," he said.
While he declined to comment on negotiations with possible tenants, he said that leasing has been going well, though he does not expect to have the building fully rented by the time construction starts.
Walnut Capital hopes to start construction on the project, to cost more than $40 million, in March and have it completed in 18 to 24 months.
The new development will make use of an existing 950-car garage at Bakery Square. There are also plans for a 900- to 1,000-car garage at Bakery Square should the need arise.
Walnut Capital will be seeking a LEED silver rating from the U.S. Green Building Council in the design of the new building. There will be bike and pedestrian paths in front of the building. Rooftop gardens will collect rainwater. The sky bridge also will be lighted at night.
A second office building, 350 apartments and 57 townhouses also are part of the master plan for the $120 million Bakery Square 2.0 development. The first residential units are to be completed in June. Mr. Perelman said Walnut Capital has had inquiries from 400 to 500 people about the apartments.
"What we're finding is that people that are working at Bakery Square now are going to be renting apartments from me across the street," he said.

The 5 Things I Tried For The First Time After 50
A few weeks ago, my teenage daughter was going through some old boxes stored in the garage and came upon a journal I wrote in 1989. The part my daughter focused on was the last page. It wasn't so much a bucket list as a promise to myself to get over some fears, stop making excuses, and prioritize not just my time but my values. Here are five things from that list that I did after I turned 50.

Now that my little rental kitchen makeover is pretty much complete (I always drag my feet on one last thing- this time it's re-painting the ceiling) I'm ready to start stocking up on serving pieces. While I've been incredibly loyal to my Ariele Alasko cutting board (and always will be), I'm ready to add a new piece or two to my board collection. Mainly because a pretty board can make even the simplest breakfast look beautiful and artfully arranged. These gorgeous cutting boards from Aaron Fuller of Modern Stump in Portland are made of Western Black Walnut that is sustainably harvested in the Pacific Northwest. In addition to the deep rich color, I love the unique shape of each board. Every single one is completed by hand so no two are alike, although the size options are approximately the same overall size- so you'll have plenty of room to cut, chop and prep to your heart's desire. Tilde in Portland is selling the small and medium sized versions of Aaron's cutting boards right here for $44 and $55. Thanks, Kate! xo, grace
Black walnut is stunning. Little works of art in themselves.
These are incredible!
Wow. I would hang mine on the wall! Reasonably priced too :D
Thanks so much for featuring these gorgeous cutting boards. You made our week! The wood worker – and ourselves – are dancing all around!
So beautiful – I love that you could use them as serving platters too. Anything multi-functional in a small kitchen is great!
Thanks so much for posting these. Much appreciated.

Can stone-tool marks on fossils be distinguished from tooth marks?
Pat Shipman
The cutting edge of science is sharp and potentially dangerous. New techniques, new interpretations and new ideas are sometimes responsible for great advances in understanding—or for great mistakes.
What would you do, as a responsible scientist, when a new discovery doesn't jibe with the previous evidence?
First, you'd sit and ponder. What will be the broader implications, if the new evidence is correct? What ideas would be overthrown or contradicted? How different would the new interpretation be?
Then you'd probably do everything you could think of to double-check all of the evidence. Were you careful? Did your ideas go beyond what was supported by the finding? Could some form of confirmation—or refutation—be gleaned from another line of inquiry?
And finally, depending on your own convictions and how bold you are, you would make one of two choices. You could tuck the new evidence into a larger paper, discussing its possible import if confirmed. Or you could simply publish your data and its implications as fully and prominently as possible. In either case, you'd be hoping that later findings would show you were right, because science is essentially self-correcting.

I'm surprised that this bug wasn't fixed for a whole year, and I've just been affected by this.
The posting in Google Groups asks for a concrete example, and I have one. I'm creating a Rails application, where I have a _commentform template, that contains a form element, that is submitted with ajax. If there are errors in any fields, then _commentform is rerendered with error messages, and $('#formid').replaceWith('...commentform...') is used to replace old form with the new one.
Later I've added a script tag in that form, that performs some javascript on buttons on the form, using $('#buttonid'). But, unfortunately, when using .replaceWith, scripts are executed when there are *two* elements on the page with the same id, and because old form elements are before new form elements, jQuery picks old buttons (which are later removed), and now I have buttons that don't do what I'd expect.
Needless to say, that Prototype handles this situation correctly, and old elements are removed before new ones are injected, so everything works very well.
Also, I've studied jQuery sources, and it seems that using prev/after/prepend has to do a little more work than next/before/append, so perhaps this implementation would be better than the previous one:
$.fn.replaceWith = function(value) { return this.each(function() { var e = $(this); var s = e.next(); var p = e.parent(); e.remove(); if (s.size()) s.before(value); else p.append(value); }); }

Monthly feature evaluates school speech codes
June 12, 2012
The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) has selected Centre College in Danville, Kentucky, for its "Speech Code of the Month" feature in June. Each month, FIRE features a school with an especially egregious speech code. Azher Majeed, associate director of legal and public advocacy at FIRE, says Centre College was selected because of its vague policy prohibiting disrespect for college officials. "There is really no definition given, and that 'disrespect or failing to show due respect' can mean really anything that you want in a particular case," he explains. "In that sense, it's ripe for administrative abuse." Even though Centre […]

Centre College Revises Policy Banning 'Disrespect for a College Official'

Centre College, FIRE's June 2012 Speech Code of the Month, has finally revised its policy banning any "disrespect for a college official" after FIRE wrote the college two letters urging it to better protect students' free speech rights. Because that was Centre's only "red light" policy (a red light policy is one that both clearly and substantially bans protected expression), the college now earns an improved, "yellow light" speech code rating from FIRE.

Linear Technology Power Supply Voltage and Current Monitors - Linear Technology LTC2960ITS8-4#TRMPBF, The Linear Technology LTC2960 is a nano-current, high voltage two-input voltage monitor, ideally suited for multicell battery applications. External resistive dividers configure custom comparator thresholds. The supervisory circuit monitors the ADJ input and pulls the RST output low when the input drops below threshold. A reset timeout period delays the return of the RST output to a high state when the input rises above the threshold. The spare comparator allows voltage conditions to be detected with either a non-inverting input, IN + (LTC2960-1/LTC2960-3) or an inverting input, IN - (LTC2960-2/LTC2960-4). A manual reset (MR) input is provided for external activation of the reset output. Other options provided on the LTC2960-1/LTC2960-2 include a reset timeout period select pin, RT, to select between 15ms or 200ms reset timeout periods. The LTC2960-3/ LTC2960-4 have a fixed 200ms reset timeout period. The RST and OUT outputs are available with active pull-up circuits to an output logic supply pin (LTC2960-3/LTC2960-4) or 36V open-drain outputs (LTC2960-1/LTC2960-2).

Wilfred, that show about the guy who talks to a dog who everyone else sees as just a dog but he sees as a guy in a dog costume (Got that?), will continue its trippy, raunchy run on FX.
According to Indiewire, the comedy has been renewed for a third season, with some changes to its staff. David Zuckerman, who adapted the show from the Australian series it's based on, will be replaced as showrunner by current writer/producers Reed Agnew and Eli Jorne. Zuckerman will remain executive producer.
Nick Grad of FX said, "David Zuckerman has done an amazing job adapting and reconceiving Wilfred for FX. It was his decision to step down from the Showrunner's post, but we're happy he is going to stay involved in the show."
The series stars Elijah Wood as Ryan, who's been compared to Jimmy Stewart's character in the classic film Harvey (in which a man sees a large imaginary rabbit). Ryan's neighbor's dog, Wilfred, appears to him as actor Jason Gann in a dog outfit and gives him life advice. And of course there's also some pot-smoking.
This is another success for the constantly growing FX, which boasted excellent ratings for the recent premire of American Horror Story's sophomore season.

Love Blends Old-School Rebounding With The New Age
Mark Remme
Wolves Editor/Writer
Email / Twitter
Sam Cassell has seen firsthand a lot of power forwards during his NBA career that are widely considered some of the best of all time. Duncan. Malone. Garnett. Barkley. Nowitzki. All of them either played with or against Cassell during his 14 years in the league.
But for Cassell, Wolves power forward Kevin Love stands out in today's game because of the hybrid mix of talent he brings to the court every single night. Hampered by injury this season, Love was not elected to his third consecutive All-Star Game this weekend. But his presence was still felt in Houston because he continues to be a unique blend of rebounding, 3-point shooting and consistent offense from the 4 position.
"You got The Love Doctor, you got a chance to win every night," Cassell said this weekend. "We haven't had a power forward that can shoot the three ball and rebound the way he rebounds in a long time."
One particular instance stands out. Cassell watched the Clippers game last season when Love hit the game-winning 3-pointer coming out of a timeout with no time left on the clock.
It was the type of circumstance—a 3-point attempt in a tie game involving a power forward—that you don't see every day.
"They ran out for a last-second shot for Kevin Love to shoot a 3," Cassell said. "That don't happen.
"Charles Barkley could make a couple threes, but not pick and pop threes, run plays for him to make threes."
Love seems to represent a rare brand of stretch-4 that can connect from outside and command attention when he's on the perimeter, yet is still able to come inside and get the job done on the boards with an efficiency rarely matched in today's game. That's not common across any era. A big that has pulled down 12.2 boards per game over his five-year career usually doesn't also hit 105 3-pointers in a season like he did a year ago.
In fact, according to Basketball-Reference.com, last year Love became the only player in NBA history to average more than 12.0 rebounds per game and hit 100 3-pointers in the same season.
He's a guy who can pick-and-pop from the outside or move to the 5 if need be on the interior. That's one of the big reasons why he made an impact with Team USA during the summer in helping the U.S. earn a Gold Medal, and it's why his All-Star teammates on that squad were awfully happy to have him on board.
"Toughness," Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony said. "And a big guy who can spread the court, who can shoot. One of the best rebounders of our time that I've ever seen."
Robert Horry won seven championships in the NBA playing both the 3 and the 4, and he was known for his big-shot heroics—many of which came from 3-point range. This weekend in Houston, he said the stretch-4 style of play initiated in the 1990s when guys like Scottie Pippen and Toni Kukoc were able to step outside and open up lanes for guys like Michael Jordan. It wasn't as "sexy" to play that way until that time period; teams often favored bruising interior play. But the game has evolved and there is a lot more emphasis on the perimeter—whether it's dribble penetration or connecting from deep—than there was in previous NBA eras.
Love is that rare connection between those two eras—being able to hold his own underneath the basket while also being a threat from outside. For that reason, he has Horry's admiration.
"We have this debate all the time, who is the best power forward in the league?" Horry said. "I go with Kevin Love every time. That's just my opinion…I just love the way he plays. He can go out there and get you 20 and 20 every night. He can stretch the defense. He can get you rebounds. There isn't too much he can't do, except for maybe putting it on the floor and bringing it up full court."
Something that stood out for Horry and some of the current NBA All-Stars about Love is the way he approaches the game. He's always looking to learn, refine his game and become better.
That was another thing that stood out to his Team USA teammates.
"I told Kevin Love that I appreciate the way he plays the game," Heat forward LeBron James said. "I love the way he plays. He goes out and gives it his all every single night and continues to get better. It's unfortunate that he's been hampered this year with injuries. He gave a huge boost in our Olympic run to Gold this summer."
Rockets guard James Harden said he's known Love since high school, and the two have grown up together in the league as well as competed side-by-side in London this summer. Simply put, he said Love does it all.
"Great guy to hang around on the court," Harden said. "He's definitely someone you want to have on your team."
Love continues to rehab that broken right hand, and he said last week that while he isn't able to do weight-bearing or basketball activities yet, his hand is feeling better after this surgery than it did after he broke his hand in October, and he's hopeful to be back in the Wolves lineup by mid-March.
When he returns, the Wolves will again have a two-time All-Star who commands admiration from both current and former NBA standouts, a guy who can impact a game both inside and outside on the offensive end and a guy who blends eras of hard-nosed rebounding with stretch-4 capabilities.
"His shooting, his entire post-game. He's a phenomenal player," Harden said. "He's had a couple setbacks, but he'll definitely bounce back strong."
