The wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton will have its very own app in what has got to make it one of the geekiest wedding accessories ever - well unless you count a Royal Wedding GE fridge.
According to details sent to us by the Royal Collection - that's the division of the Royal household that deals with these kinds of things - the new Royal Wedding application will tell the story of seven royal nuptials from Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in 1840, to the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall in 2005.
"Apps enable us to place works from the Royal Collection in the hands of a worldwide audience. It is fitting and exciting that the first Royal Collection App will share the stories of past royal weddings and offer a wealth of historical context for the ceremony on 29 April," said Jemima Rellie, director of publishing and new media for the Royal Collection.
The Royal Weddings app, which will be available in eight languages, is the first in a series of Royal Collection Apps to be launched this year. Forthcoming subjects include Changing the Guard and State Banquets.
The royal weddings app is priced at £1.79 and will be available to download for Apple and Android phones from 18 April.
Highlights of the Royal Weddings app include:
- The sapphire and diamond brooch given to Queen Victoria by Prince Albert on the day of their wedding.
- A watercolour sketch by Queen Victoria of her bridesmaids' dresses.
- A sketch of Queen Victoria's wedding cake, which is said to have measured over 9 feet (3 metres) in circumference and weighed over 300lbs (140kg).
- A photograph of the roses given to Prince Edward by his fiancée Princess Alexandra on the day of their engagement, 9 September 1862. The Prince carefully pressed the roses and kept them with a note written in his own hand as a keepsake.
- Her Majesty The Queen's wedding dress, designed by Norman Hartnell.
But the official app isn't the only royal wedding app on the block, numerous developers, and media outlets are getting in on the action, with The Mirror amongst others launching an app to celebrate the big day on the 29 April.

Since the conclusion of Operation Iraqi Freedom in December of last year, there have been many calls to honor OIF veterans with a "welcome home" parade either in Washington, D.C. or New York City. The administration along with the Pentagon decided to hold off on such an event, citing the fact that troops are still deployed in Afghanistan. Rather, they encouraged folks to hold local events in their hometowns across the country. President Obama also held a black-tie dinner at the White House for a few hundred veterans in late February.
"We understand the administration and Pentagon's decision to not hold a traditional ticker-tape parade for our veterans at this time, with troops still in harm's way in Afghanistan," said Tim Holbert, Executive Director of the American Veterans Center.
"At the same time, the public strongly desires – and needs – the opportunity to honor those who served so nobly in Iraq, and to remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice."
As a result, the American Veterans Center, organizers of the National Memorial Day Parade, has decided that the "grand finale" of the 2012 National Memorial Day Parade will be designated a tribute to the sacrifices of the Iraq war generation.
The parade is also partnering with Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) to extend invitations to all veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan who are able to participate to come to Washington to be a part of the parade and walk down Constitution Avenue in honor of their comrades from this generation who made the ultimate sacrifice. This will likely be the only time in the near future that the public will have the opportunity to thank those who served in Iraq, and to come together to pay tribute to those who fell.
The parade will take place Monday, May 28 at 2:00 PM in Washington, D.C. Special guests include Grand Marshal and legendary pilot Chuck Yeager as well as actors and military supporters Gary Sinise and Joe Mantegna, Mantegna, Miss America 2012 Laura Kaeppeler, and many others.
Veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan who would like to participate can register at the parade's Official Web Site, where they can also find all relevant information about the event.
Please help get the word out so that as many of our brave Veterans as possible become aware of this unique opportunity.

Gifts for You on Keynes' Birthday
John Maynard Keynes once said that "Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influences, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist."
Today marks the 129th anniversary of Keynes' birth. Below you can read a sampling of Mackinac Center commentary from years past about the damaging impact Keynes has had on America due to his advocacy of central planning and government spending and those who have been slaves to his ideas.

MAPLE SHADE TWP., N.J. - September 9, 2013 --A fierce fire forced a South Jersey diner to keep its doors closed today.
The fire broke out around 11:30 p.m. Sunday at the New Golden Dawn Diner, located on Route 38 in Maple Shade Township.
Heavy fire was showing throughout the interior of the building when firefighters arrived.
Fire companies from surrounding areas responded to fight the fire. Crews broke out windows and ventilated the roof area before finally getting the fire under control.
There are no reports of injuries.
So far, authorities have not indicated what may have caused the fire.

The British banking scandal reveals—again—just how wrong-headed our assumptions about finance are. Morality and self-interest are hopelessly at odds; add planetary crisis to the picture, and we're "lost," said one former JPMorgan executive I had a chance to interview last month.
Are banksters redeemable? The British rate-rigging scandal has been lying in plain sight. City of London bankers, upper crust, chummy types, were supposed to tell the truth about their own bank's borrowing power and every day, based on those estimates, the London inter-bank borrowing rate or LIBOR was set. Now that regulators have spoken, it's come to seem absurd that private bankers were expected to play fair, act responsibly and act in anything other their own self-interest—without oversight. But that's just how the inter-bank lending rate setting worked.
As one former senior trader close to the scandal put it to The Economist, "There is no reporting of transactions, no one really knows what's going on in the market…" The implications? "You have this vast overhang of financial instruments that hang their own fixes off a rate that doesn't actually exist."
Sans transparency, soaked in incentives, the bankers had every reason to hide their institution's weaknesses, and that (it turns out), is all too often what they did. Now regulators have woken up, criminal investigations are about to start and Barclays chief Bob Diamond is likely to be only the first, not the last, chief executive hit. But what about the bigger story?
The LIBOR scandal itself will soon shift to courts and public inquiries, boring, complex and long enough for most regular people to lose interest. The bigger morality tale is already slithering down the details-tube.
Before it does, it's worth seizing the opportunity to ask some bigger questions—like what are bankers for? What are banks for? If banker self-interest conflicts with the public world interest, what regulator on the planet can cope with that?

This lovely tart is perfect for company; it's rich, impressive and quick! Although it only takes a few minutes to assemble, leave at least 8 hours before serving for the tart to chill. It can be made in either a 20-23cm pie dish or tart pan.
Easy Recipe to follow and make. I thought I could cheat and not let it chill for as long as the directions said...WRONG!!!! The flavor wasn't as intense as when it had chilled the 8 hours!!!! Delicious pie~ - 13 Jul 2000 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
Also excellent as mini-truffle tarts! I made a cookie crust using 80 crushed vanilla wafers and 12TB melted butter and pressed that by spoonfuls into mini-muffin tins, baked it for 12 minutes, then filled with pie filling when crust had cooled. Delicious appetizer for parties! - 26 Mar 2004 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
This was crazy easy and just as good! I don't understand some reviews that criticize the intense chocolate flavor. Did they read the ingredients? I accidently used 1/3 cup of sugar rather than the 1/4 called for and I could have handled the lesser sugar (I'll be more careful next time). My store was out of chocolate cookie crusts, so I used a pre-made shortbread crust and I loved the contrast. I topped the whole pie with Easy Devonshire Cream from this site and shaved chocolate. My only problem is that I at the last piece last night and I don't have enough cream to make another right now . Thank you for my new "Go-To" chocolate fix! - 07 Mar 2009 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)

Recording new mileage
A guide to recording mileage travelled in your own car in your FreeAgent account.
1. Find the screen
If you're a sole trader, and you have no staff, start by selecting the Expenses tab from the Overview screen.
If you're a sole trader with staff, a limited company director, or a partner in a partnership, choose 'Expenses' from the 'My Money' menu.
Alternatively, you can access the Expenses area quickly by selecting 'New Mileage' from the Quick Links menu on the Overview screen.
2. Choose the user
Once you're in the Expenses area, make sure you've selected the appropriate user (i.e. the person who spent the money) from the 'Show' drop-down menu.
3. New Mileage
Select 'Add New Mileage'.
This brings up the Create New Mileage screen.
Date and distance
Enter the date you made the journey.
Put in how far you travelled, remembering that you may need to double the mileage for a return journey to record that you went out and back.
Reason for the journey
Put a description of why this journey was undertaken. Make sure it's clearly identifiable whether this journey is allowable or not for tax. For example, if it's ordinary home-to-work commuting then this is not allowable for tax, so make this clear in the description.
Type of vehicle
From the 'vehicle type' drop-down menu, choose the kind of vehicle you made this journey in: car (including van), motorcycle or bicycle. Please note that owners of sole trades and partners in partnerships cannot claim bicycle mileage.
As you change the vehicle type, the HMRC approved mileage rate changes according to the kind of vehicle that was used.
Reclaiming VAT on fuel
You need to be registered for VAT and have a VAT receipt for fuel enough to cover the mileage travelled on this journey if you want to reclaim VAT on the fuel. You can't reclaim VAT on the full cost of the mileage travelled, only on the fuel element. So if you do have a VAT receipt, choose that you want to claim for this mileage, and enter the fuel type of your vehicle and the capacity of its engine. FreeAgent will work out the correct VAT reclaim for you.
You can re-bill this mileage to a customer if it was incurred while working on a particular project. Choose which project you want to re-bill it to, and set the rate at which you're going to charge it to the customer. If you haven't yet set up the project, finish entering the mileage and save it, then set up the project. You can always edit the mileage later and re-bill it, so long as it hasn't been paid for from the company in the meantime.
Setting up a recurring claim
If you know you will be taking this journey again, use the options under Recurring to enter the second and future journeys into FreeAgent now.
You may also want to upload an attachment, for example a scanned copy of a fuel receipt, particularly if you are claiming VAT on the fuel element.
Once you've finished entering the mileage, select Create New Expense to save this journey, Create and Add Another to save this journey and start entering another one, or Cancel to close this screen without saving the journey.
That's it. Job done.
The mileage has been added to the list of costs incurred by this user which he or she can expect the business to pay back for.

A Chicago police officer fired last month for physically attacking two fellow officers who were arresting her son is asking that a judge review her termination.
The Chicago Police Board on Nov. 19 found Officer Kimberly Marshall guilty of biting and striking the officers and calling in an officer assistance radio call to prevent her own arrest after she tried stopping the officers from arresting her son, Hoyle.
In a complaint filed Wednesday at the Cook County Circuit Court, Marshall claims that her firing wasn't in accordance with the law and was made "against the manifest weight of the evidence," and asks a judge to review it for a possible reversal.

Obama McCain Debate Protest at Hofstra Turns Scary
Protest at Obama/McCain Hofstra debate. Veterans from Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) stood on the front lines, trying to get two war veterans into the debate to ask a question to Obama and McCain. Watch as the Long Island police assault war veterans and protestors with their horses and use horses to push people back at least 50ft. And while protestors did yell, there is no report of violence commited by protestors, while there are reports of police injuring several. Why are police being trained to intimidate protestors? Are we still allowed to protest? And why are horses being used as weapons and for crowd control? "At least 15 people were arrested-including at least five members of Iraq Veterans Against the War-on charges of disorderly conduct. Nassau County police on horseback trampled one member of Iraq Veterans Against the War, Nick Morgan, a veteran who served in Iraq for about a year. His condition is unknown." http://www.democracynow.org/2008/10/16/15_arrested_outside_presidential_debate_in

The Old Barn video clip
Sue Wisdom purchased this barn in 2007
After spending several years holidaying in the region , circumstances became right for us to move permanently. After seeing lots of unsuitable properties, our friends here heard about this farmhouse and took us to see it . Well it was pretty run down but ticked all the boxes to use a well worn cliche. So began our journey into DIY heaven and hell . Looking back on the photos of the renovation we may have been slightly bonkers, but now our labours, we think , have produced a wonderful home for holiday makers.
Here you will have the benefits of rural surroundings, but 10 minutes walk from the traditional boulangerie and Spar convenience store , both open every day. and its 20 minutes walk into the city. We have always felt life was close by but yet we are in a tranquil private paradise of our own making. We have tried to make both gites homely, welcoming and well equipped. The same for the pool and gardens , beautiful salt water pool surrounded by plants and trees. Lots of places to sit whichever takes your mood. Parents chill while the children safely play .....which means a holiday for all .
The property rental rate includes cleaning before & after. n.b. we do not come in and clean or make beds during your stay. A weekly change of bed linen & towels is included, these towels are not allowed at the pool or beach
Beach/pool towels are available to hire @ 5 Euros pppw, these are high quality speedo towels for the adults & for the younger children there are character towels
We stayed at the Old Barn for a week and loved our time there! We stayed as a family of 5, which included a 9 month old baby. Steve and Sue are very welcoming and kind hosts; full of local knowledge. We were greeted on arrival and given a tour of their beautiful home. The pool area is beautiful and clean and the Old Barn is also very clean and spacious. Steve and Sue have thought about everything to ensure you have a relaxing and wonderful holiday. This was our first family holiday with our 9 month old baby and Sue and Steve had thought of everything to make our stay as relaxing as possible.
The property is a 10 minute walk to the nearest spar and wonderful bakery. (Tip: Sue makes wonderful homemade jams which you can purchase and is beautiful with a croissant or two from the bakery!) The centre of Perpignan is a further 10 minute walk away. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Old Barn and would recommend to anyone who would wish to enjoy a relaxing holiday at a beautiful location. Thank you very much Sue and Steve!
We stayed at the barn over Christmas this year and we couldn't have wished for more. We were so warmly welcomed by Sue and Steve who had decorated the barn for us with Christmas decorations and tree and left a hamper with goodies such as a home made Christmas pudding, home made jam, Christmas crackers and other bits. The fire was lit for our arrival and the whole place was magical. Sue and Steve are extremely easy going and accommodating leaving us to our own devises but quick to help with anything if required. The property is about 15 mins walk to the town centre and Perpignan is well situated to visit many sea side resorts, vineyards and historic villages. We recommend it without hesitation! Thank you Sue and Steve.
We had a great time staying at the Old Barn. Sue and Steve were extremely accommodating and friendly.
Our accommodation was spacious and very clean and the kitchen had everything you need for your stay.
It was very close to the main supermarket and to Canet Plage which is a lovely sandy beach. The sea was very clean and shallow which was great for the kids.
I would definitely recommend my friends to come here.
Thank you Sue & Steve!!
We stayed at the property in the outskirts of Perpignan for the first time this year (2017). As there was a group of ten of us the location was superb with the converted barn and the cottage. The standard of accommodation was excellent and very well equipped. Everywhere was really clean and maintained to a high standard. The site is secure with parking and has been designed with children in mind. The photographs on the website do not quite do it justice, in particular the pool which is absolutely beautiful and even larger in real life! The barn and the cottage have their own BBQ areas, but the one at the side of the barn is large enough to accommodate a group of 10. The owners were friendly and extremely helpful. Although the strength and coverage of the WI-FI would have benefited from a boost, it was good enough to keep us in contact with friends and family back home. The local shop and bakers were just a 10 minute walk away for the morning croissants and supplies. Perpignan center was then another 15 minutes, where there were restaurants and bars. The beaches were just 10 minutes in the car and there was a great number of vineyards in the area to sample the local wine. Within the nearby vicinity there was a lot to see, do and visit.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely property and would most definitely recommend it to others.
We returned to stay with Sue & Steve after visiting in 2011, which was just after they had completed the renovation of Mas Mimosa. We wanted to go back to visit them because they are such good hosts and because the property was so comfortable and provided everything we needed for a relaxing holiday.
Our welcome was drinks in the summer kitchen and a couple of hours catching up with them. Since our first visit they have made further improvements including completing the second property and the gardens and pool areas were looking even better, it was lovely.
We stayed in the Barn which is spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Kitchen provided evrything we needed, in particular a large fridge/freezer for keeping plenty of cools drinks available. Bedrooms were large and comfortable. Good bathrooms and showers. Plenty of space for relaxing. Only downside was the TV ariel reception lost the BBC Channels for part of our stay but Steve will sort this out.
Overall we spent a great couple of weeks at Mas Mimosa alternating between relaxing days by the superb pool, walks into Perpignan or days out exploring the coast, the Pyrenees or other historic towns. There is lots to do nearby.
The best thing about staying here is Sue & Steve who are the perfect hosts. Sociable if you want them to be, good to chat to and nothing is too much trouble for them. They want to make sure you enjoy your stay and do everything they can to make sure you do.
What a wonderful place to spend our family holiday, amazing salt water pool my Daughter learnt to swim without her arm bands here and really enjoyed swimming at night, it was amazing looking up at the stars! Our girls played happily in the pool all day and loved all the toys especially dolly's and pram which are there for the kids to play with, and various swings / seesaw in the garden too. Villa felt very safe and secure so we could let the kids have a bit of freedom playing while we relaxed by the pool. The barn is amazing and furnished to a very high standard very luxurious, spotlessly clean and very spacious we felt totally spoilt. We enjoyed breakfast lunch and dinner on our terrace and enjoyed some lovely bbq's too. A lovely walk into Perpignan for loads of restaurants and bars if you want to eat out. We had our car so drove to beautiful beaches one was Canet plage for good for restaurants/ amazing massive fresh candy floss/ carousel and market stalls at night also Saint cyprien was lovely at night we had mussels and frites for dinner and had fairground rides bouncy castles for kids too. We wished we could have stayed for another week. Thank you to Sue and Steve it is a truly beautiful place to stay and we would love to come back soon.
The Mas,attached barn and land are set amid the farming and market garden conservation area of the Jardins St.Jacques.The land used to be tended by the monks of St.Jacques to feed the local population. Perpignan; most southerly city of France boasts 300 sunny days a year,we enjoy long summers. This colourful and vibrant city is very proud of its Catalan culture. It has art galleries & museums,a plethora of cafes & restaurants, ideal to sit & watch the world go by.The shops are interesting,from the beautiful to the quirky, both designer & unique,some within a labyrinth of tiny lanes a joy to explore.

Cougar Town Ratings Not So Great
But creator Bill Lawrence isn't giving up yet.
Cougar Town loyalists may want to crack open the Syrah a tad early today: After an extended hiatus and minimal marketing (at least by the network itself), Bill Lawrence's sweet adult friendship comedy returned to predictably meh Nielsen numbers Tuesday. Per preliminary data, just under 5 million viewers caught last night's episode; it averaged a 1.8 rating with viewers under 50. While the raw numbers aren't great, there's a bit of a silver lining for the show, which Lawrence, co-creator Kevin Biegel, and their cast had extensively promoted via social media.
Among adults under 50, Cougar Town managed to retain about 80 percent of its (completely incompatible) lead-in, Last Man Standing. And with women under 35, it actually did better than Tim Allen's grunt-fest. Also working in Cougar Town's long-term favor: ABC has other problems on the night. Last Man Standing tied its series-low ratings last night, while The River dried up in its second week, sinking nearly 30 percent from its two-hour debut last week. Lawrence put a positive spin on the data: "Hopefully we can close the gap [with LMS]," he told Vulture via Twitter. "This is old hat. On Scrubs, when we were midseason, we'd premiere low ... then gradually close gap. Fingers crossed."

Author, former editor delivers Rotary's annual Belk Lecture
By Matthew Whittle
Published in News on April 15, 2009 1:46 PM
News-Argus/GREG SOUSA
Former Goldsboro News-Argus editor Gene Price speaks to local Rotarians during the Goldsboro Rotary luncheon Tuesday. Price was chosen to deliver the annual Belk Lecture.
For more than 50 years Gene Price recorded Wayne County's history for the News-Argus, first as city editor, and then later as managing editor, editor and finally editor emeritus.
For 50 years he talked to folks and told their stories, and it's from those that he compiled his first book -- "Folks Around Here."
Speaking to the Goldsboro Rotary Club Tuesday afternoon as part of the esteemed Henry Belk Lecture Series, Price explained that simply put, his book is about people.
"There are a lot of tidbits of history and people I've tried to include in this book," he said. "A lot of the stories in the book are about people I have known or would have liked to have known."
In fact, he said he has been told that without his book, the "tidbits of local history" saved in between the pages might have otherwise been lost.
Stories such as those about Frederick "Freddie" Woodard, who sold chewing gum and gave away his poems at the downtown Post Office, or how the Parkstown Christmas Parade began, or how the railroad tracks that used to run down Center Street were removed one night, or how a local boy, Booty Lewis, was the inspiration for Steve McQueen's character in "The Great Escape."
He even has stories -- often those left out of the history books -- about pivotal North Carolina figures such as Gov. Charles Aycock and Zeb Vance, who served as both senator and governor.
Other stories, like one he told the Rotary Club, include how former News-Argus reporter and Pulitzer Prize winning editor and author Gene Roberts got his start -- thanks in large measure to a single sentence, something that had great value to Price.
"I was always trying to hammer into their (young reporters) heads the importance of the short sentence," he said. "The short sentence is the best form of communication, written or spoken."
Price explained that when Roberts was introduced to him, he wasn't all that impressed with the quiet, young man.
"I almost didn't hire him," Price said. "I was not impressed with young Roberts. I said this boy does not need to be in the newspapers."
But, he continued, when the farm reporter position came open, Roberts was the only one to apply.
So Price said he sent a very short letter telling Roberts that the job was his if he wanted it.
In reply, Roberts sent back Price's letter with a note scrawled at the bottom -- "I'll take it."
"I knew then I had a live one," Price said. "So much for the young fella I thought was a little bit slow.
And so with stories such as that -- just enough to whet the appetite -- Price ended his lecture and people queued up to buy signed copies of his book.
"I enjoyed it," said Jane Rustin, director of the Wayne County Public Library. "The Belk Lecture is held during National Library Week, and it's really fitting that we have a local author this year who has done so much.
"It's good to bring it back to a local focus."
And as for his book, she said, "it's circulating very well in the library."
Even Southern Wayne High School media coordinator Sherry Smith said she was likely to buy a copy for her library -- after she bought one for herself.
"I'm getting ready to head to the beach, and I'll sit down with it then," she said.

There are days when everything goes right. Birds are singing, the coffee is delicious and your to-do list gets effortlessly checked off. You feel like you could accomplish anything, and on top of that, your hair looks fantastic.
And then, there are days when your husband comes home from work to find you swearing at a gloppy mass of congealed baking, your radiant beauty hidden behind a scowl and a "Screw you, carrot cake."
Oh…wait. Is that just me?
I had a baking disaster. And while I typically brush my slip ups under the rug and let you all thing I only ever create blog worthy confections, this oops was too spectacular to hide.
It started off as an innocent carrot cake. I whipped up the batter during nap time, and greased the pans using coconut oil (because apparently it's made of magic and unicorn hair). Baked for 40 minutes, cooled for 20…and then I tried to transfer them to a cooling rack.
To say that the cakes stuck to the pans would be the understatement of the century. The coconut oil, nonstick pans and shredded carrots formed a kind of cement that could only be broken with a chisel, a pick axe and a jack hammer. This wasn't the type of cake mistake that can be patched up with frosting. No way.
So, I did what any Pinterest-minded girl might do, and crumbled that mess of cake into a bowl. Add some icing, roll into balls, and voila! The makings of cake pops! I rolled, I stuck, I froze, I melted….
And it all was an incredible mess.
The carrot cake was so oily that it oozed when I rolled it. It was so crumbly and dense that the balls imploded and caved in on themselves. When I did manage to get one on a stick and dip it, the weight of the cake and frosting was so great, it slid off the stick and into my bowl of melted colored chocolate. The result? Lumps that looked like Elmo's balls after the Colour Run (is that crass?)
I tried my hardest to make them salvageable. But when the excess oil from the cake began leaking through the candy melt shell, all hope was lost. So I crammed a few un-dipped centers into my mouth, dumped the dishes in the sink, and snapped some pictures so you could all
make fun of cheer me on.
What has been your worst baking fail?

Peter Revesz knows databases — both how to create them and efficiently draw data from within them. He never figured that expertise would be of use to the U.S. State Department and its international partners.
Revesz, a professor of computer science and engineering, is the first from UNL to earn a competitive U.S. Department of State/U.S. Agency for International Development Jefferson Science Fellowship. During the past year, he served in Washington, D.C., and abroad, helping assess if everyday technologies can be weaponized and strengthening international export control policies.
"I was an adviser for two offices within the U.S. State Department," Revesz said. "One was the Office of Export Controls Cooperation. The other was the Office of Conventional Arms Threat Reduction."
In the work for the Office of Conventional Arms Threat Reduction, Revesz helped review whether products available commercially could also be used as weapons. His focus was assessing software, particularly if it could be used to make autonomous moving vehicles. The project included writing briefs and participating in discussions at the Wassenaar Arrangement conference, in Vienna, Austria.
"The Wassenaar Arrangement is a group of advanced nations that work together to prevent certain technologies from falling into the hands of terrorists in countries that cannot produce these technologies," said Revesz. "I found the work fascinating, particularly the high level of technology I encountered."
The simplicity of some of the items regulated also amazed Revesz.
"I never thought of an electronic (remote) car opener as being a danger," he said. "But, they were adopted into the arrangement because they can be used to set off roadside bombs."
For the Office of Export Controls Cooperation, Revesz was able to focus on his expertise in databases.
The office is a border security program that partners with more than 60 nations to develop export regulations and enforcement capabilities. The office works to prevent the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and to meet international guidelines set by the United Nations.
As a part of the ECC assignment, Revesz gave database management presentations in Ukraine and Kenya.
"I met with customs officials and gave them a short course on database creation and data mining techniques," Revesz said. "Basically, I showed them how to search for and identify irregular patterns and assess the danger of illegal shipments."
Revesz returned to UNL in August. This semester, he is incorporating knowledge from the fellowship into his teaching. Revesz also plans to add a chapter on the experience into textbooks he has authored.
"This was an amazing experience," Revesz said. "And, I encourage all interested faculty to apply for the Jefferson Science Fellowship."
Jefferson Science Fellows work as consultants for one year in Washington, D.C., or in a foreign embassy or mission. Under the terms of the award, fellows can be called back as a consultant for up to five years.
Jefferson Science Fellows are selected by the National Academies — National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, Institute of Medicine, and National Research Council.
UNL added its second Jefferson Science Fellow this year when Curtis Weller, professor of biological systems engineering, was selected to participate. His assignment started Aug. 15. The State Department said Weller's interest in cereal grain research and use, industry experience and familiarity with food and bioproducts would give him an excellent background to address food and water security issues.
Revesz is available to discuss his Jefferson Science Fellowship experience. Contact him at firstname.lastname@example.com or 402-472-3488.

The recently launched P3 headphones have been received exceptionally well by the press. Here is a selection of the first reviews.
What Hi-Fi? 5 star review:
How do the P3s sound? Brilliant. They're a punchy, exciting listen, brimming with vigour and keen to please. Low frequencies have a remarkable sense of not only weight but depth too. The P3s display a Messi-like sense of control: delivery is as precise as you could wish
for in a headphone at this price. You can read the full review here
T3 5 star review:
The Bowers & Wilkins P3 headphones follow on from the popular P5s and, like their predecessor, need to be heard to be believed. As with all Bowers & Wilkins products, the finish is superb. Well crafted, engineered and a joy to use. Read the full review here.
"There are differences between the P3 and P5, to be sure, and there's little doubt that the original model remains B&W's flagship, but they have so much in common that users looking for a more budget-conscious alternative will certainly feel well-served by P3 —
and the new model has unique assets of its own that merit attention.
You can read the full review here
CNET review:
The P3 headphones' impressive combination of design, sound quality, and features put it near the top of the class for portable headphones in its price range. You can read the full review here.
Sound + Vision:
B&W really nailed the design of the P3 — it's comfortable, practical, and looks terrific. We also dig the sound; I'm sure I'll be using these a lot just 'cause they're so easy to listen to for long periods of time. You can read the full review here

A. Our Music Director and Conductor is Mr. Paul Worosello; Mr. Worosello is also the long time band director at Klein Forest High School.
Q. Is the Woodlands Concert Band a professional organization?
A. No. The musicians who play in the Woodlands Concert Band may be professionals in some cases, but none are paid for their participation. The band is open to professional and amateur musicians who enjoy playing in an excellent concert band that plays a varied repertoire.
Q. Is the Woodlands Concert Band open to anyone who wants to participate?
A. Yes; however in order for the band to perform at a consistently high level, the musicians who play in the band must also be able to play at a certain level.
In general, participants can be of any level of skill, and should be enthusiastic and ready to learn...and practice. We strive to be as welcoming to someone returning to active playing after a hiatus as we are to professional and semiprofessional musicians. If you have concerns, contact us for more information about the level of musicianship required--or just attend one of our rehearsals, every Thursday at 7pm at Christ Church United Methodist, 6363 Research Forest Drive, in The Woodlands. Musicians do not need to live in The Woodlands to play in the band. Participation is open to residents of any area. While the band is primarily for adults, mature high school students are also eligible to participate.

A. The band consists of the standard concert band instruments: woodwinds, brass, and percussion. Musicians must provide their own instruments, except for large percussion--as well as supplying their own music stand. We currently have openings in all sections, as we strive to deepen and broaden the sound and musicality of the ensemble.
Q. What kind of music will the Woodlands Concert Band be playing?
A. The band will play a wide variety of music, covering the complete spectrum of concert band literature. Our concerts will be designed to provide educational andentertainment experiences to our audience, so music will be selected with the audience in mind.

Open Thread: Everything You're Reading, Watching, Listening To and Looking At
This is your place to talk about the TV, movies, music, books and art that are thoroughly entertaining you.
There are two specific classic teen girl coming-of-age movies I've always felt preternaturally attached to, "Foxes" with Cherie Curie and Jodie Foster and "Little Darlings" starring Tatum O'Neal and Kristy McNichol.
Originally hitting theaters in 1979 and 1980 made them ripe for my predominantly unsupervised early-80s obsessive cable television consumption, as well as steady rotation into the local channel 11 weekend afternoon and occasional late-night movie roster. I loved both movies deeply and still believe if you tossed those four young performers (probably just their characters) in a blender, you'd pour out a me. Formative. Influential.
"Little Darlings," in contrast to "Foxes" was never released on DVD and became the less revisited, more elusive of the two films. For me, dog. Basically meaning that my reaction to "Foxes" has fluidly grown as I have, making me less aware of it's first impact on a tween me, while "Little Darlings"was protected in a time capsule of my virginal 10-year-old brain.
Turner Classic Movies had a pretty amazing "Underground" series on Friday nights at 2am (they may still have it, but recently started 31 Days of Oscar, so it may be on hold) and a couple weeks ago gave me the opportunity to re-experience "Little Darlings" at probably 25 years older than the last time I caught it. Heavy.
IMDb's plot synopsis is as good as any: "Two 15-year old girls from different sides of the tracks compete to see who will be first to lose their virginity while at camp."
As a kid, I had a major crush on Tatum O'Neal. I developed a pre-K superstar complex, saw "Paper Moon" and take my word, kindergarteners either wanted to be her, or be next to her for storytime. I listed her in my xoJane bio as my first celeb crush, then got a little red-cheeked realizing Jane is friends with her.
My memories of "Little Darlings" were colored by this Tatum-love. She played Ferris (I have to imagine even the 35-year-olds among you are baffled that her character was named "Ferris"), the one from the rich girl side of the tracks, the one who was worldly and sophisticated beyond her years and had the forethought to go after a grown man for her side of the virginity bet. Her clothes looked expensive and she had manners and big crazy poetically romantic ideas.
As a 38-year-old rewatching, Ferris (like everyone at camp) was so young. Her airs are a put-on, a child's defense mechanisms formed of the life-shaking uncertainty of her parents divorcing and her mother abandoning her. She connects the least with her fellow campers, a daddy's girl who when separated from her daddy goes after a grown camp counselor (hunky Armand Assante, whom I've always projected some French citizenship onto and was shocked moments ago to learn he's an Irish-Italian New Yorker) who thankfully has boundaries against a Romeo-and-Juliet-jabbering 15-year-old.
Kristy McNichol as "Angel" (love it) originally struck me as the cool tough tomboy, the delinquent. The loner. I liked her but didn't invest a ton in the character as a kid. Boy, do I now know why.
Angel was from the slutty-single-mom-having side of the tracks. That's not a judgment, that's the portrayal. Based on personal experience, I think a young girl develops a complicated relationship with sex when she is confronted with her mother's sexuality in a context wholly different from old school "TV moms." Perhaps the perceived shift in priorities makes you feel alone and unprotected and sexuality becomes a threat that you use self-destructively and without emotion. Maybe.
Keep in mind, this was a summer camp movie, a girl-centric "Meatballs" to me mostly as youngster. And it has those elements. The supporting cast is filled with really brilliant young actors, including a super-charming flower child Sunshine, played spectacularly by a teen Cynthia Nixon (this viewing was definitely my first "WOW, that's Cynthia Nixon?!" opportunity with this film).
Back to Angel. Her spiteful participation in the virginity bet (the bloated-ego'd "engaged" catalog model amongst the campers offers up her $100 royalty check from the Tiny Tangles Cream Rinse commercial up as a prize) comes from just wanting to appear normal. Ferris wants to be liked, Angel wants to be normal. Ferris ultimately lies about hooking up with Gary the Couselor, Angel lies by denying making good on the bet with her identical twin Matt Dillon due to the resulting overwhelming and verbalized "loneliness."*I have to throw in here somewhere that it would be almost impossible to make a movie today that spoke openly of 15-year-olds persuing sex. And it for sure couldn't be packaged as a movie for young people and be shown as a Saturday Afternoon movie on local network television. "American Pie" were graduating seniors.
Angel wasn't ready. She got ahead of herself (I wasn't ready for sex at 15, I thought I was). Angel's kind of feral and lacking guidance and learned that while sex and men may be her mother's driving force, that just wasn't the answer for her right now or maybe ever.
Through the modern-day lens of Kristy McNichol's recent coming out (even though her sexual orientation had been a long-time open secret), I wondered if I wasn't imagining or projecting some "celluloid closeting" on her struggling character in "Little Darlings." Her performance is just beyond. Come to think of it, the opening challenge that leads to "the bet" has The Model overtly questioning Angel's preference.
Ferris and Angel eventually get vulnerably honest with each other and these enemies-and-competitors-at-first-sight bond in a way they undoubtedly had not with anyone else before this point. Friends talking. Not-a-girls, yet not-a-womans. This is where the love story is for me.
In conclusion, I'm not above admitting I may have just wanted them to kiss. Then and now.

Seven Ways EcoDry Delivers Service
Let's face it, carpets attract dirt and filth quickly and are very tough to clean with household cleaning products. Have a coffee stain in the middle of a busy office? What about dirt and salt trails running from one end of a hallway leading to a doorway that happens to be a main entry point for employees?
Office image is important not only to the perception of your clients but to the employees that work for you. A clean office is a happy office and showing care for the environment your employees work in will go a long way not only with morale and company pride but productivity.
EcoDry's use of Milli-Care's proprietary dry cleaning process will get those tough to scrub stains and marks out of your company's carpeting with just one treatment! Afraid of odor? Don't want to lose a work day? No problem! Our team is quick, efficient and works with eco-friendly products that won't leave you needing clothes pins for your staff!
Stained office chairs are the worst and it is never good to see your investment get defaced by any substance. New blue jeans rub off on light colored furniture and leave a blue residue, non-clear liquids will leave an inevitable mark, and greasy food will leave it's mark clear as day.
Caring for your furniture is very important to the lifespan of your investment, but our services go beyond just chairs! EcoDry will clean cubicle panels, upholstered furniture, and virtually any surface that is not a wall or ceiling.
Flooring will always get dirty, it's just a fact of life. With our Performance Coating, your floor will stay cleaner longer and the lifespan of your floors will greatly increase. Our protective layer will protect the floor permanently, prevent people from slipping with our slip resistant material, resist stains and will renew and protect the color of the floor.
Over the years, using stone or wood tiling has gained popularity in homes and offices to add value and improve appearance. One will commonly hear "stainless steel and granite countertops" complimented by a patterned stone or tile for the desired modern look. While this does add value and beauty, tile and stone can be hard to clean properly due to its porous surface and grout borders. Most commonly in high traffic rooms such as bathrooms and wkitchens, tile and grout can appear clean when sweeping. Even when some try a deeper clean and scrub, it is time consuming, potentially ineffective, and difficult to keep up with.
Cleaning your floors once is easy. Ongoing care takes consistency, hard work and commitment to maintain appearance and quality. EcoDry uses their truest chemicals and expertise to provide reliable cost effective floor care that you can depend on.
First impressions are important and lasting. With our floor care products and quality service, EcoDry ensures your entryway sets the tone for your business from the start.
Keep your floors cleaner longer. Our protective care services stand the test of daily household and office use. From areas like the bathroom and kitchen where bacteria can seem hidden, to visible stains on the entryway carpet in the office, EcoDry knows that your floors need to be resilient.
Our network of skilled project management professionals assesses your space to understand your facilities' unique needs and determine which materials and surfaces in your space can be cleaned: carpet, textiles, performance coatings, tile & grout, hard surface floor care, entryway systems and special preventative care services.
