First, photographers had to be a master of their camera to produce great work.
Then, anyone could become a photographer thanks to advances in technology.
Now, a camera has been created that leaves all the control in the hands of the photographer, but backs it up with advanced technology. The FUJIFILM X100T. Packed with new features such as the world's first electronic rangefinder – a high-quality fusion of optics and electronics – and the CLASSIC CHROME mode, offering the simulation of a classic film style, photographers can combine their passion for shooting with the thrill of controlling their camera once more.

PHOENIX (AP) -- The FBI says a preliminary investigation has found friendly fire is likely to blame in the shootings of two border agents along the Arizona-Mexico border.
The shootings occurred Tuesday in a rugged area about five miles north of the border near Bisbee, Ariz.
Agent Nicholas Ivie and two others responded to an alarm triggered by a sensor aimed at detecting smugglers and others entering the U.S. illegally. Ivie was fatally shot. The wounded agent was struck in the ankle and buttocks and released from the hospital after surgery. The third agent wasn't injured.
Ivie's death marked the first fatal shooting of an agent since a deadly firefight with Mexican bandits that killed U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry in 2010 and spawned congressional probes of a botched government gun-smuggling investigation.
Twenty-six border agents have died in the line of duty since 2002.

Welcome to Spiritual Life
"Investing in Lives to Develop Followers of Jesus"
Our desire is to see college students transformed by the gospel for the glory of God and we are intentional about creating an environment where spiritual transformation can occur. We want you to take the next step you need to take to grow in your relationship with God because everything we do centers on the Great Commission mandate to make disciples.
The Word of God is essential for transformation because it works in the lives of believers to conform them to the image of Christ through the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. Chapel speakers will help you understand what the Bible says, what it means and how it applies to your life. Discipleship opportunities through small groups focus on discussion and application of Scripture. We believe that the more you fill your mind and life with the word of God, the more you will position yourself for God to conform you to the image of Christ.
At CBU, you will find many opportunities to put your faith into practice by serving other people in urban settings who need a little extra help and a word of encouragement. Mobilization will take you cross-cultural by serving those in major metropolitan areas in the United States and around the world. We want you to experience the service that results from transformation of the gospel.
Take the time to explore the many opportunities for growth available at CBU through chapel, Compassion Ministries, Campus Ministries and Mobilization. Discover how these ministries can contribute to living your purpose!

Going straight on (or keeping right) will take you to the bridge at the head of Glendalough Valley and bearing left at this point takes you up and over to the saddle between Mullacor and Lugduff SE Top.

The photo clearly shows the Lugduff ridge to the right of the photo, while the trail snaking down from the spinc is also clearly visible. The head of the Glendalough Valley is just peeking through also. Unfortunately the camera battery died just as we approached Lough Firrib. Typical.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: There's 'No Weak Link' in This Super Couple
It's rare these days to see a couple with near-equal levels of prestige and box office power in Hollywood, but Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are the exception.
"For other couples, there was often one who had a power advantage over the other," Paul Dergarabedian, a senior media analyst at Rentrak, told Speakeasy on Thursday after news of the long-awaited Jolie-Pitt wedding hit front pages everywhere. "The difference is that at least for right now there is no weak link in the 'Brangelina' equation."
Here is how Jolie and Pitt stack up against each other — and other modern-day movie-star couples.

Hold on, I went back and re-read.
First the OP wants to build a better camera than any yet-so-far ever made. Good luck!
Second, he says he doesn't know about 5x7 or larger lenses. I wonder if he has even used 4x5 yet? I'm betting he hasn't.
Third, he is in medical school... !?!
And fourth, he is tight on money. Any wonder?
While I am sure a $1200 90XL would be amazing, the sort of lens this guy needs is a $250 Schneider 120 Angulon or something in that ball-park. An inexpensive vintage wide-angle -- a simple tiny, slow 90 year old lens... seriously. They are usually quite sharp and have a wonderful rendering... I know the mindset is to shoot with the sharpest most-modern glass but you'll just end up compromising further down the workflow chain (mediocre scans render the $2000 lens pointless for example). So why not learn to adjust to mindset of making a good picture instead of owning bragging rights? Besides when the money kicks in, you could always trade up and mount the four-figure $$$$ Uber-lens, become bitterly disappointed with it and find out I was right ;-p
(It's up to you if you want to be messing around with camera design and building at all given the time and financial constraints of medical training. But my advice is to forget about reinventing the wheel and just buy something more modest and less than you can afford... then go out and enjoy shooting making the most of your limited resources and time.)

The Apparition
The Apparition is your typical, ultimately forgettable horror film that serves up more unintentional laughs than scares. Tom Felton of the Harry Potter series appears as Patrick, a sort of paranormal-obsessed Encyclopedia Brown, whose jerry-rigged college experiment ends with one of the participants being sucked up into -- somewhere, the wall? The maw of the Apparition? Who knows. She's gone, and the apparition is on the loose.
Fast forward a few years, and Patrick's paranormal accomplice Ben (Sebastian Stan, of Captain America and Gone) is attempting to make a life for himself with his girlfriend Kelly (Ashley Greene). They've just moved into a house in a mostly empty land development in Palmdale, CA, where their only neighbors seem to be a guy and his daughter and their dog. Kelly's parents bought the house as an investment, like the Bluths from Arrested Development, minus any personality and plus a ghost.
Immediately, something otherwordly begins screwing with their absolutely normal, Costco-going, everyday lives. Things move, doors open, nasty-looking ''mold'' begins growing on things, and once Kelly discovers Ben's ghost-hunting past (and the fact that the girl who disappeared was his ex, sob!), their relationship begins unraveling as the ghost ramps up its reign of terror. This gives Patrick the chance to re-enter his friend's life so they can bust out their ghost-hunting (and ideally ghost-trapping) gear and get to work.
Sometimes, a movie gives you the feeling that something's been left on the cutting room floor. Somewhere along the line, scenes were snipped or added, toned down or ramped up, and what you're left with is a messy, confusing final product. One might be generous and think this is the case with The Apparition. Was there supposed to be more of a commentary on suburban life? If not, why does Costco keep popping up? Did someone with greater clout persuade the writer or director to inject an appearance of the ghost that's so ludicrous it made me think someone had swapped out a reel from Scary Movie? Was it supposed to be purposefully funny in places, and someone higher up demanded they tone it down?
It's not really our job as viewers to try and figure out what went wrong, only that it did go wrong. The Apparition is a DVD rental at best, unless you enjoy paying money to tell characters onscreen how dumb they are. The best thing one can say about The Apparition is at least it's not another ''found footage'' movie. That's not saying much.
Hollywood.com rated this film 2 stars.

As provost of Ball State, Terry King oversees the university's seven academic colleges, among other responsibilities.
Before arriving at Ball State in August 2006, King served as dean of the College of Engineering at Kansas State—a college of 150 faculty members, eight academic departments and 32 academic programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
He began his professional career as a research engineer at Exxon Chemical Co. in Baton Rouge, La., in 1979 and progressed to senior engineer in 1981. In 1982, he joined the faculty at Iowa State as an assistant professor, becoming an associate professor in 1986 and a full professor in 1990. He then became chair of the Department of Chemical Engineering at Iowa State, a position he held until 1997.
He has taught all levels of chemical engineering, produced more than 150 peer-reviewed articles, book chapters and reports, given numerous technical/scientific talks around the world, and holds three patents.
Provost King received his bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from Iowa State University in 1975, and his doctorate in chemical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1979.

ELLISTON –– Having given up 112 points two weeks ago to No. 1-ranked Oak Hill Academy, Galax knows that there's not a lot of joy in watching an opponent go to triple digits. After Thursday, the Maroon Tide knows that sometimes it's just going to happen.

Boston College: Controversial Speaker Disinvited
Category: Free Speech
Schools: Boston College
Boston College not only banned former Weather Underground member William Ayers from campus but also refused to permit him to speak on campus via satellite to an audience limited to members of the BC community, citing "security issues." Administrators have not replied to any of FIRE's letters, asking them to reaffirm their commitment to free speech.
Free speech silenced
April 16, 2009
The Founding Fathers thought it was so important that they made it No. 1. The former slave Frederick Douglass told a Boston crowd that liberty was meaningless without it. Public Enemy rapped about it in "Fight the Power." Across the centuries, freedom of speech has been held up as a freedom worth fighting for. It is enshrined in the First Amendment. How regrettable that it seems so little valued at the Massachusetts institutions where it should be most respected – our universities. In late March, Boston College cancelled the appearance of University of Illinois professor William Ayers, a former member […]» Read More
At Boston College, April Fool's Flyer Prompts Censorship, Punishment
April 4, 2008
Echoing the circumstances of FIRE's ongoing case at Colorado College, Boston College student newspaper The Heights reported yesterday that six students responsible for posting satirical flyers around campus are facing discipline for the flyers' "inflammatory" content. While the group posted several different flyers, one in particular provoked the College's strong response. Posing as an advertisement for a "Black Baby Petting Zoo," the flyer mocked white students who travel on "service trips" abroad to volunteer during spring break. Instead of traveling, the flyer purported to offer students a chance to "satisfy your need to cleanse your whiteness" while remaining on campus. […]» Read More

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican lawmakers in the U.S. House of Representatives will try to advance a new fiscal compromise bill that would extend the federal debt limit until February 7 with a "hard cut-off," and provide government funding through December 15, Representative Devin Nunes, said on Tuesday.
Nunes, a Republican from California, told reporters that the latest House plan would not include previous efforts to delay a tax on medical devices, but would include new changes to the "Obamacare" health reforms for Congress and high-ranking Obama administration officials.

Kanye supposedly inked a $10-million deal with Adidas for 2014.
Nike announced the release of the sneakers yesterday via Twitter, surprising many who thought the launch of the flashy footwear had been canceled.

Nieuw in versie 8, die op dit moment alleen beschikbaar is voor Windows en OS X, is onder andere de mogelijkheid een sessie aan een ander over te dragen, na afloop van een sessie notities toe te voegen en onlinevergaderingen in Outlook op te nemen. Verder is er een managementconsole waarin onder meer gebruikers kunnen worden beheerd. De volledige release notes voor versie 8 kunnen hieronder worden gevonden.

Simply print out documents from remote computers on the printer next to you, e.g. while connecting to your office from home, without having to transfer files. You will always have all the important documents for a meeting or a client visit on hand, even if you have forgotten them at the office.
- Schedule online meetings easily in Microsoft Outlook
Now you can plan your online meetings directly in your Outlook calendar via the integrated TeamViewer button. Briefly convert existing appointments into TeamViewer meetings and send the updated invitation conveniently with the necessary access information.

Hear and see what is happening on the remote computer, whether it is a system sound, music, or videos. You can now show your participants a video in real-time during an online presentation, depending on computer performance and internet connection.

Create a personalized TeamViewer QuickSupport for Mac while integrating with your TeamViewer account. When your customer launches the module, their data will automatically appear in your computers & contacts list. After a short confirmation (without exchange of ID and password) you are directly connected. Chat messages are also possible before the support session is established.
- TeamViewer 8 users can still establish remote control connections with TeamViewer 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.
- For technical and licensing reasons, a remote control connection in the other direction, i.e., from TeamViewer 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 to TeamViewer 8, is not possible. Meetings with version 8 are also accessible for participants with version 7, however, vice versa it is not possible due to the mentioned reasons.

SUMTER, S.C. – Over the weekend, the King University women's tennis team returned to action with a new look to their team as they returned just two players from a season ago, and those two players made King history. At the Palmetto Tennis Center Individual Tournament, the doubles team of Mariana Hosomi and Naomi Reyes won the C Draw of the event to take home the first title in King tennis history.
The sophomore duo cruised through the bracket, defeating North Greenville University's Haley Hardwick and Aline Ribeiro 8-3 in the quarterfinals, and followed that with another 8-3 win over Paige Brooks and Dana Kelly of Barton College. In the finals, the pair took on another Barton combination, Carol Fischer and Kristy Lievense, but the Reyes and Hosomi topped them 8-2 to take the first title in school history.
In singles both Reyes and Hosomi played in the B Draw, and Reyes defeated Paulina Delgado of Mount Olive College 7-5, 6-0 in the first round before falling to Julia Moreira of Limestone College 2-6, 6-4, 6-2 in the second round. Hosomi won her second round match against Rebecca Beacham of North Greenville University 6-1, 6-2, but dropped her semifinal match to Erskine College's Haley Whatley 7-5, 6-1.
Playing in their first collegiate event, both Claudia Morris and Haley Maloney competed in the C Draw, and they both won their first matches in the round of 16. Morris defeated Brigid Donohue of Belmont Abbey College 6-2, 1-6, 6-1, and Maloney topped Chrissie Ann Dennis, also from Belmont Abbey 6-3, 6-1 to advance to the quarterfinals. However, both players dropped their quarterfinal matches, Morris to Hardwick 6-3, 6-1 and Maloney to Lievense 7-5, 6-3.
King will be in action again on Wednesday when they travel to take on UVa-Wise. The dual match is scheduled to start at 4:00 p.m.

5 reasons 'Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace' worked
After 15 years, meesa not so angry anymore.
They say time heals all wounds, and with this year marking the 15th anniversary of the release of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, I've found that to be true. Where I once let the hate flow through me, I now feel a sort of Ben Kenobi-type of nostalgic fondness for what some consider the most odious chapter in the Star Wars saga.
Late next year – assuming the date doesn't get pushed back – we'll see the first instalment in a new Star Wars trilogy, directed by Star Trek rebooter J. J. Abrams. Many fans are cautiously optimistic that even if Abrams doesn't quite meet their expectations, it can't possibly be worse than George Lucas's prequel trilogy.
But if we grab our rose-coloured electrobinoculars and take a look back, was The Phantom Menace really all that bad? Here are five things might just redeem Star Wars: Episode I.
Darth Maul
While he didn't have the raspy gravitas of Darth Vader, the red-and-black horn-headed Sith was a badass villain. A man of few words, Darth Maul wielded a dual-bladed lightsaber – the first time we'd seen such a thing on screen – and was a swift, scary menace, doggedly pursuing Obi-Wan (Ewan McGregor) and Qui-Gon (Liam Neeson) throughout the movie. Sadly, his death at the hands of Obi-Wan was a bit anticlimactic, although he eventually returned in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. 'Twas but a scratch!
The pod race
Say what you will about young, tow-headed Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd), but the pod race sequence in The Phantom Menace was a definite high point, as long as you ignored the goofy lead-up and the dumb two-headed announcer. The digital effects still hold up well today, and the sheer amount of imagination that went into the design of the various pod racers was pretty amazing. Suck it, Sebulba.
In my humble opinion, the city-planet of Coruscant is the most interesting place in the entire Star Wars universe, and The Phantom Menace gave us our first – albeit brief – glimpses of this massive world. During the scenes in the Jedi Council chamber, I found myself tuning out Yoda and pals to gaze at the towering spires and flying cars in the background. Hopefully Coruscant will be a major setting in the new trilogy.
Practical effects
George Lucas took a lot of heat for relying so heavily on digital green-screen effects, and The Phantom Menace was one of the first major Hollywood films shot entirely with digital cameras. But there were a surprising number of practical miniature effects and models used as well, from panoramic shots of Naboo and Mos Eisley to various spaceships and vehicles. The fact that many of these were assumed to be all-digital creations is a testament to the skill of the modellers and designers.
Samuel L. Jackson with a purple lightsaber
OK, Sam Jackson was wasted in this movie. Actually, pretty much all of the otherwise talented actors who appeared in the prequel trilogy were dragged down by Lucas' absolutely wooden script. But simply seeing Sam the Man as Jedi master Mace Windu, wielding a purple lightsaber (his personal choice, allegedly so he'd stand out in battle among the usual red, blue and green lightsabers), was something undeniably cool. Cool enough to erase Jar Jar Binks from our memory? No. Nothing short of a CG Leia in a golden bikini could do that.

And there's no one in the cab. Inexpensive drones will fly over fields recording plant health, water usage and pesticide dispersal. They will help create an historical database to project future crop yields and soil health. Real-time, high-speed data will be flowing to precision-agriculture equipment.

I bought this car completely stock in November 2004. 2 weeks shy of having owned it for two years, I was in an unfortunate accident resulting in the car being totalled on 10-26-06 :(
I am going to take part in as many challenges as I can throughout January as a final farewell.
Throughout the 2 years I had this car, I put a lot of blood, sweat, and money into it. From fixing stuff (yeah, its a chevy, lol) to adding go-fast goodies, It has taught me a great deal and at the same time creating an obsession for performance that i just cant shake (not that i want to :D ). I am currently rebuilding its LT1 into a whole new monster which will be transplanted into my black 97' Z28 rolling chassis (see garage).
I had many un-finished plans for this car, but at least now part of it can survive on through the next project!

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - May 23, 2013 --The Philadelphia Phillies have placed five-time All-Star second baseman Chase Utley on the 15-day disabled list with an oblique strain.
Utley could miss up to four weeks. The team will make a roster move before Friday's game at Washington.
"We do believe and hope that Chase will be ready to play in Philadelphia within 15 days," general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said. "We are being cautious with this injury as it is a tricky one and want to make sure it isn't an issue for him throughout the season."
Utley is batting .272 with seven homers and 25 RBIs. Freddy Galvis has replaced him in the starting lineup.

East coach breaks down his talent
Practice Galleries: EastClick MORE: U.S. Army AA Bowl coverage | Here to view this Link. | WestClick MORE: U.S. Army AA Bowl coverage | Here to view this Link. | More all-star coverageClick MORE: U.S. Army AA Bowl coverage | Here to view this Link.
SAN ANTONIO – They're all good but a select few players have stuck out to East coach Terry Smith and his staff in practices for the U.S. Army All-American Bowl. Starting at quarterback, Georgia commit Aaron Murray and Rutgers pledge Tom Savage have been the best.
"I would give Murray the edge right now but it's a close battle between the two," Smith said at Wednesday's Skills Challenge at the Alamodome. "The consistency sticks out and Murray takes charge of the huddle better than any of the other guys.
"He's a big-time leader with a big-time arm. His mobility is a little limited because of his injury but his arm is really, really strong… (Savage is) big and strong. He has a body like Ben Roethlisberger. He's a big presence in there with a big-time arm. (Tuesday) on a seam route, 30 yards on a rope, it was a big-time throw. He's had a really big week as well."
There is "no question" that Miami commit Bryce Brown is the East's top running back, Smith said. He has shown the capability to break big runs and also get downfield and catch passes out of the backfield. Clemson commit Roderick McDowell has also been a solid runner with big-play ability.
"(Brown) is big time," Smith said. "He's shown the combination of power, speed, athleticism and great vision."
At wide receiver, Michigan commit Jeremy Gallon has been far and away the most productive receiver. He has touchdowns catches in each of the practices and has a knack for getting open and sneaking behind the defense. At 5 feet 8, Gallon is small enough to creep through openings and then pop open for the pass.
"He's a pleasant surprise," Smith said. "We knew he was a good athlete but making the adjustment to receiver was always a big question mark. He's scored touchdowns in every practice and he seems to have the knack to get open and make the play."
Orson Charles has also drawn a lot of attention this week and multiple East defensive backs said the Tampa (Fla.) Plant is the toughest receiver to cover. Smith said the team calls Charles "Baby T.O." in reference to Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens.
"He has that body," Smith said. "He's chiseled and he has a lot of fun out there."
Chris Burnette, a Georgia commit, was moved to guard after the offensive line was having blocking issues. The 6-foot-2, 300-pounder has resolved some of those problems. Burnette has been the most consistent offensive lineman so far.
"We were having some problems interior-wise so we moved him to right guard and once we moved him there we kind of solidified that position," Smith said. "He's nasty in there. He's smart enough to pick up our adjustments."
One of the reasons the East switched around their line alignment was to deal with Clemson commit Malliciah Goodman, who has been tough off the edge. North Carolina pledge Donte Moss has also stood out.
"They're both really close but I'd give Goodman the edge," Smith said. "He's fast off the edge. We had to realign our offense to protect off that edge."
Detroit Cass Tech standout William Campbell, who said he'll pick LSU, Florida or Miami during Saturday's game, has been the East's most consistent defensive tackle. Not only is he big and strong but also agile and athletic. Smith said Tuesday Campbell will probably play both ways.
"Campbell is a true Warren Sapp kind of athlete," Smith said. "I saw him out there catching punts, catching passes and then he's making all those tackles on the defensive line. He's fast, he's strong, athletic and he's big."
Middle linebackers Jon Bostic and Stanford commit Shayne Skov have stood out the most to Smith, who said both knock down everything in sight. Smith called Skov "a little reckless" but meant it in a good way.
Evaluations are a little premature in the secondary because a good portion of the safeties and cornerbacks did not practice until Tuesday because of travel complications.
However, Smith said Ohio State commit Justin Green, Michael Carter and Arkansas five-star pledge Darius Winston have made the biggest impressions. Winston has been slowed by an ankle injury.

Gasoline futures(NYMEX:RBM14) traded near a one- month low on speculation that supplies rose last week as refineries restarted units after repairs.
Futures fell as much as 0.3 percent after gaining as much as 0.5 percent. The Energy Information Administration will probably report tomorrow that gasoline inventories rose 500,000 barrels last week, according to the median estimate of 10 analysts in a survey by Bloomberg.
"The refiners are coming out of maintenance and it looks like they're going to come storming back and producing product at a record pace," said Phil Flynn, senior market analyst at Price Futures Group in Chicago.
June-delivery gasoline fell 79¢ to $2.9013 a gallon at 12:21 p.m. on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Volume was 35% above the 100-day average.
The EIA is scheduled to report last week's inventories at 10:30 a.m. tomorrow in Washington.
Prices increased earlier on speculation higher consumption will limit inventory gains. Demand traditionally increases as the U.S. nears the summer driving season that starts over the Memorial Day holiday, which this year falls on May 26. Prices at the pump fell an eighth straight day.
"The market is focusing attention on the upcoming Memorial Day holiday and an increase in demand," said Andy Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates LLC in Houston.
Pump Prices
The average U.S. pump price fell 0.6 cent to $3.667 a gallon, according to data from Heathrow, Florida-based AAA today. Prices are 14.6 cents higher than a year ago.
Gasoline's crack spread versus WTI crude narrowed $1.06 to $21.65 a barrel. The motor fuel's premium to Brent crude fell 13 cents to $14.34.
Ultra low sulfur diesel for June delivery dropped 0.59 cent to $2.9005 a gallon on volume that was 18 percent below the 100- day average. The survey projected that supplies of distillates, including diesel and heating oil, rose 750,000 barrels.
Diesel's crack spread versus WTI fell $1.02 to $21.57 a barrel. The premium to Brent fell 10 cents to $14.25.

It's the season for giving. Jonathan, 6, and Arianna, 9, stopped by the Fond du Lac Public Library Children's Desk on December 13 to give Children's Coordinator Julia Cartwright each a five-dollar bill. The kids were following a family tradition handed down by their father, Mike Korb, of donating what they received on St. Nicholas Day.
Sara Cujak hosted the annual Cujak's Wine Market Holiday Wine Tasting at the Fond du Lac Public Library in November.
Kids ages 6 to 12 who could benefit from practicing their reading are invited to participate in the Fond du Lac Public Library's Paws to Read program. Kids read aloud to certified therapy dogs in a relaxed setting. Studies have shown that reading aloud to dogs helps put the child at ease. Kids benefit from the dogs' patience, acceptance and comforting presence while they practice reading and build skills. The therapy dogs will be accompanied by their certified handlers and are from the group Healing Paws, Inc.
It started in 2010 with an internet posting making the rounds among library fans around the world. It was a picture of a desk made of books at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. It was bounced around the in boxes at the Fond du Lac Public Library and eventually shared on the library's Facebook page.
Everyone said, "cool," and left it at that.
Several dozen people gathered to help the Fond du Lac Public Library celebrate their first-ever branch location, FDLPL Express, on Saturday. Highlighting the event was the unveiling of a one-of-a-kind, custom-made circulation desk made of books.
The Fond du Lac Public Library has set up Giving Trees at the downtown library and the new FDLPL Express on east Johnson Street to collect donations of hats, scarves, mittens and gloves. Donated items will be given to the Fond du Lac Salvation Army before Christmas for distribution to local children.
The Fond du Lac Public Library's Opportunity Center is a free computer lab resource where people can get help looking for work, writing resumes and researching employers. The center is staffed by local volunteers who work one-on-one with users, many of whom lack computer skills. This help is essential.
Just in time to avert the mini-crisis on your holiday shopping list: What to get that helpful neighbor/adorable niece/plucky cat sitter? The Fond du Lac Public Library's BookCellar now is selling $5 gift certificates.
I like to read books with a Wisconsin connection, and The Queen is a Christian thriller in the Patrick Bowers series that is set in northern Wisconsin. All of the books in the series are named for chess pieces starting with the first book The Pawn. This is a great book to read for those who like suspense and espionage.
The 21 members of Fond du Lac Visual Arts have collaborated in a show aptly named "21," at the Fond du Lac Public Library gallery through December. Each member submitted two works, and the range is vast. Jewelry, ceramics, watercolor, collage, oils … it's a multimedia exhibit that showcases the diversity of the group.

This song makes me smile! Thank you for sharing! Most of the music I listen to pre-dates me about forty years also, so I know that happy feeling of coming across something current that I just have to share.
A song I've been listening to non-stop lately is "Love Yourself" by Lucy & The Cloud Parade (I think it's from 2010, so current for me!). It's one of those feel-good, skip-down-the-sidewalk, sing-out-loud sort of songs:

ALS is a disease that everyone dreads, but the Wake Forest School of Medicine (WFSM) ALS Center aims to change this. We provide expertise, equipment and emotional support to prolong independence and improve quality of life during ALS Clinic. But our commitment to helping ALS patients runs deeper.
The clinical scientists and basic researchers have partnered to form the WFSM ALS Center to pursue the reasons why people get ALS and develop new tools to fight ALS. It is clear that we are not going to make major advances in treating ALS until we understand why it starts, why it spreads from one part of the body to another and why treatments that work well in animals do not work in humans.
At the ALS Center, basic researchers have joined the medical doctors that treat ALS patients to design experiments that explore these questions in actual ALS patients. Donations to the ALS Research Fund are used to start pilot projects, maintain animal colonies and perform patient-oriented research.
We encourage you to fight this disease with all your strength and hope you will consider how research is critical to your fight against ALS.
Learn more about ALS research at Wake Forest.

3's mobile phone TV service could land users in trouble
Plug it in and break licensing laws
Users of 3's just-announced mobile television service will break TV licensing laws if they view the service on a mobile while it is plugged in at unlicensed premises. While the phone runs on its own batteries it does not need its own licence.
Users of the service also run the risk of violating the terms and conditions of broadcasters if they use the service. Terms and conditions for a subscription to BSkyB's Sky satellite television service, for example, forbid the viewing of the content outside of the registered address.
Mobile network 3 will launch further details about the service, including prices, next week. Last week it launched the X-Series service, a series of pricing packages based on two handsets which will offer the use of services such as free phones calls for Skype users, Microsoft instant messaging, and access to content stored on their PC.
The network has teamed up with Sling Media, which makes Slingbox, a set-top device that sends all of the television which a user receives in their home on to a server for remote viewing. X-Series will allow subscribers to watch either recorded or live television on their handsets via the Slingbox.
The TV Licensing Authority said that a user's home TV licence would cover users while watching on a handset that was battery powered. As soon as that handset is plugged into the mains electricity, though, a TV licence must exist for the premises supplying the electricity or the user has committed an offence.
"In the UK, you need to be covered by a valid television licence to use any device (including mobile phones) to watch or record television programme services as they are being broadcast or distributed," said a statement from the TV Licensing Authority. "If there is a valid licence at the address where you normally live, then you will be covered to use any device powered solely by its own internal batteries (for example, a mobile phone) away from that address. But once any TV receiving equipment (such as a mobile phone) is plugged into the mains to watch or record TV programme services, then the place where that equipment is plugged in must be licensed."
Users of the service could also breach agreements they have made with broadcasters and TV supply companies. In previous mobile television trials the broadcaster or content provider has usually been an active partner in the trial, but with X-Series, users can watch any television which they receive in their home, including subscription services such as Sky.
Sky's terms and conditions forbid the use of a service such as that proposed by 3. "You will not use the service or any part of it other than to view the channels in private for non-commercial purposes at your address," say the terms and conditions. Viewing the services on a phone outside of the address would break that content.
A spokesman for 3 said that retailers did not have to inform TV Licensing if a handset capable of receiving television is sold in the same way that they do for televisions. "Sling Box is included in the 'TV equipment capable of receiving television programmes'," said spokesman Ed Brewster. "So this applies to Sling boxes, but not to 3 handsets."
Sky did not comment before publication.

KABUL, Afghanistan – The leading Afghan presidential candidate, Abdullah Abdullah, narrowly escaped an assassination attempt Friday when two bombs struck his convoy after a campaign event in the capital, a reminder of Afghanistan's fragility as it prepares for its first democratic transfer of power with foreign combat troops set to withdraw by the end of the year.
The attack killed six civilians but Abdullah was unharmed and went on to speak at a campaign rally. Although there was no immediate claim of responsibility, it bore the hallmarks of Islamic militants fighting against the Western-backed government.
"My car was the target," Abdullah told Tolo TV after the attack. "It was a big conspiracy against me."
At the rally, Abdullah told the crowd that his "vehicle was destroyed, but fortunately we escaped it unharmed. Unfortunately a number of our security guards were wounded in the incident, but thankfully their injuries are not so serious."
The attack came just over a week before a runoff vote in which Afghans are to choose a new leader to replace outgoing President Hamid Karzai. The Taliban have vowed to disrupt the balloting, though the first round on April 5 was relatively peaceful. The attempt on Abdullah's life appeared to be the first direct attack on one of the candidates, as earlier attacks targeted only campaign offices and workers.
Karzai condemned the attack, saying it was staged by "enemies of Afghanistan who don't want free elections."
Interior Ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqqi said there was a suicide bombing followed by a roadside bomb. He said nobody in Abdullah's entourage was killed. The ministry later issued a statement saying six civilians were killed and 22 were wounded.
But Kabul police chief Mohammed Zahir said both explosions were carried out by suicide bombers -- the first was a driver who blew up a vehicle and the second was a suicide bomber on foot. Conflicting accounts are common in the chaotic immediate aftermath of attacks in Afghanistan.
The blasts destroyed several cars and nearby storefronts, leaving the street littered with twisted metal and other rubble.
Abdullah, a former Afghan foreign minister, was the runner-up in the disputed presidential elections of 2009 and is now a leading candidate to succeed Karzai, who is constitutionally barred from seeking a third team.
Abdullah is running against former Finance Minister Ashraf Ghani Ahmadzai in the second round scheduled for June 14. In the initial balloting, Abdullah garnered 45 percent of votes while Ahmadzai came in second with 31.6 percent. Former presidential candidate Zalmay Rassoul, who is now supporting Abdullah, also was in the convoy Friday but was not injured.
The vote comes at a pivotal time as the international community prepares to withdraw combat forces by the end of the year. Both Abdullah and Ahmadzai have pledged to sign a security pact with the U.S. that will allow thousands of foreign forces to remain in the country after 2014 in a training and advisory capacity. The new president will face the daunting task of resetting relations with Washington, which have taken a battering from Karzai's increasing anti-American rhetoric.
During the Soviet occupation in the 1980s, Abdullah served as adviser to and spokesman for Tajik warlord Ahmad Shah Massoud, who was assassinated by Al Qaeda two days before the Sept. 11, 2001 attack.
In the early days after the U.S.-led alliance toppled the Taliban, Abdullah became the face of Afghanistan's anti-Taliban movement, giving frequent press conferences to international media.
