Adults in the U.S. fall behind many of their developed-world counterparts in such basic areas as math, reading and problem-solving using technology, according to a newly released report authored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
The Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies surveyed 166,000 teens and adults ranging in age from 16 to 65 years old in 24 countries.
In each of the main areas, adults in more than a dozen countries, including Japan, Finland, Australia and Canada, consistently scored higher than the United States, which ranked below average or near the bottom in almost every category.
Respondents were tested in basic reading and math as well as "activities such as calculating mileage reimbursement due to a salesman, sorting email and comparing food expiration dates on grocery store tags," according to The Associated Press.
Among the 22 OECD-affiiated countries participating in the study, the United States ranked below average in literacy proficiency — well below such countries as Japan and Finland, but still higher than France, Spain and Italy.
In numeracy proficiency — defined as "the ability to access, use, interpret and communicate mathematical information and ideas" — the United States ranked third from the bottom with a mean score of 253, just below France at 254. Japan's top mean score was 288 and Finland's 282. Spain scored at the bottom, with 246.
Sweden and Finland score highest in the category of problem-solving using computers; Spain, Italy and France trailed behind, with the U.S. scoring below average.
The AP says:
"Not only did Americans score poorly compared to many international competitors, the findings reinforced just how large the gap is between the nation's high- and low-skilled workers and how hard it is to move ahead when your parents haven't.
"In both reading and math, for example, those with college-educated parents did better than those whose parents did not complete high school."
Participating in the study were OECD member nations Australia, Austria, Belgium (Flanders), Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, the Slovak Republic, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom (England and Northern Ireland), and the United States; and two partner countries, Cyprus and the Russian Federation.

When it comes time for a homeowner or commercial building owner to install a new roof, they will probably be confused about what steps to take. The building owner might even ask himself or herself if a replacement is even necessary or if the existing rooftop Show Me Roofing Companies Near Me structure will be sufficient for a few more years. One should not make the mistake of thinking that he or she can put off replacement, because doing so will lead to increased safety and health risks for occupants, and even higher energy bills.
While a new roof is free of cracks and leaks, an aging structure will allow water to leak into the building when it rains. This can lead to unsafe puddles forming in walkways, or the growth of allergy aggravators like mold and mildew. Leaks and cracks will also allow a building to lose hot air in the winter and cool air in the summer, which leads to a higher electric bill as the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) works harder to compensate. Now that one recognizes the need for a new roof, it is necessary to find a commercial roofing company that can satisfy this need. In order to find the right contractor, one should ask these questions to potential hires.
How long have you been in business?
Believe it or not, there are actually some contractors who will set up shop following a natural disaster like a hurricane or tornado to capitalize on storm damage. One can confirm that the commercial roofing company under consideration is a trustworthy business if the business can demonstrate a lengthy track record of completing projects similar to the one it is being brought in to complete.
Where is your company headquarters?
Just as contractors will set up shop following a natural disaster, contractors from other states will swoop in to capitalize high demand times. Hiring a company that is not local will mean that once the job is done, it will be impossible for the company to satisfy service requests or complete the terms of a warranty. Hence those in need should seek out a commercial roofing company.
Can you provide references?
Another way to prove that a contractor is capable of doing a good job is to ask for professional references. When one call the references, he or she should make sure that: the references have good things to say about the company, that the work they had performed is similar to the current working condition, and also that Blackjack Roofing the work was performed recently to confirm that the results are still running smoothly. It is also a good idea to ask a commercial roofing company to provide credit references, as a company with good credit will have good relationships with suppliers and will ensure that supplies arrive on time and are fully warrantied.
These are just some of the many questions that one should ask a potential contractor before hiring them to install a new roof.

Before we even had a chance to tell you he was up, Jonathan Trappe is down.
"Hmm, this doesn't look like France," says the American aviator on his Facebook page.
Trappe left from Caribou, Maine, on Thursday on a bid to fly across the Atlantic in a small boat hanging beneath about 300 helium-filled balloons. Think Up.
No one's ever made that trip using a "cluster balloon" rig.
But less than a day and only about 350 miles later, Trappe is down on dry land in Newfoundland, Canada.
Trappe, 39, was "foiled by what his team have called a 'technical issue,' " according to The Guardian. It adds that:
"Kevin Knapp, speaking from the command centre overseeing Trappe's flight, told Aero News Network, the cluster balloon was never able to achieve a stable altitude and developed a yo-yo effect — rapid descents with the aircraft hitting the surface of the water, followed by rapid ascents to altitudes as high as 21,000ft or more."
Aero News Networks reminds readers that:
"Trappe has already made history as a cluster balloon pilot having been the first to cross Lake Michigan, the English Channel and the Alps before making this attempt at the Atlantic.
"The first crossing of the Atlantic by balloon was accomplished in 1976 by the late Ben Abruzzo, Maxie Anderson and Larry Newman in their helium balloon Double Eagle II — so named because it was the second attempt by Anderson and Abruzzo."

I would have probably continued that trend with this one as well if not for Grosgrain. So thank you readers for enjoying my blog and encouraging me to continue.
I was really pleased with the way many of these turned out. A few of them could have been better but we were sort of strapped for time as we had to pick Lily up from kindergarten that afternoon. So we were lucky to get the shots that we did.
This dress is a copy of one I saw on another mommy-to-be. Well, not so much a "to-be" anymore. Caitlin of the very stylish blog B&C took photos with her husband in a nearly identical dress and sweater.
I asked her where she had gotten her dress in hopes of getting the same one for myself. She was nice enough to reply and said that it was an older season Ralph Lauren dress and she bought it for a steal at Nordstroms.
Unfortunately for me that meant no dress. I looked for a similar one to no avail. Then after studying her dress I figured I could replicate it fairly well. This is the result. What do you think? Close?
Granted, we didn't have a professional photographer but I'm very satisfied with the look of the dress and the accompanying photos. I must say Caitlin's are SUPERB!
You can see the dress is made of a blue pinstriped cotton material. The only difference is that I added a matching belt that ties to the side. The collar has ruffled layers that line the neckline and fall down the front of the bodice.
The skirt has a generous pleat in the front to accommodate baby. The rest is cut on the bias so that you get a nice full effect at the bottom.
I don't know why but I love, love, love the A-line. It's so feminine. So girly. I've always been inclined to prefer flirty over sexy. I guess I'm not very sultry in real life so that makes sense.
I loved the colors of mustard yellow, navy blue and white together with a touch of jungle red. Very classic. Aren't Molly's shoes cute? They're sailor loafers from Baby Gap and I bought them at the Salvation Army for $1. Ahh, don't you just love bargains!
I got the necklace as a Christmas gift last year from Brian's sister Caren. I LOVE IT! It's a cutout of a black and white goldfish. You can buy them on etsy here. I get so many compliments when I wear it. Almost every time. Really.
I couldn't see what the sleeves on the original dress looked like so I left the dress sleeveless. This way it can be worn in either summer or fall with a sweater. It looked nice both ways.
This giveaway is for the dress only. The sweater's all mine:)
I really loved how comfortable the dress was. There was nothing pulling or clinging, pinching or squeezing. It flowed very well and was easy to wear.
The color and look of this dress reminded me of someone fun and bubbly. Someone who didn't mind acting like a child with her children, yet still wanting to be dressy while lively.
I would say this dress would fit a mother-to-be wearing a size Small or Medium.
If you'd like to win this maternity dress set just link to this post either using the 'create a link' at the bottom of this post or simply creating a post on your blog and including this link.
If you have any questions see the "questions and answers" link at the top. If you use blogger just use the "create a link" link at the bottom of this post.
If you don't use blogger, that's fine too. Just create a link on your page as you normally would and I will see it using Technorati.
Update!! While creating a link is still the only requirement for entering a giveaway, leaving a comment along with your link makes it much easier to find your entry. This is mostly due to the fact that blog roll links often show up in my search for entries and can be difficult to sort through.

John Burnett
As NPR's Southwest correspondent based in Austin, Texas, John Burnett covers immigration, border affairs, Texas news, and features, and does investigative reporting. Though he is assigned to the National Desk, his beat has sometimes stretched around the world.
In 2012, he spent five months in Nairobi as the East Africa Correspondent. His special reporting projects have included New Orleans during and after Hurricane Katrina, the U.S. invasion of Iraq and its aftermath, and many reports on the Drug War in the Americas. His reports are heard regularly on NPR's award-winning newsmagazines Morning Edition, All Things Considered, and Weekend Edition.
Burnett has reported from more than 30 different countries since 1986. His 2008 four-part series "Dirty Money"—which examined how law enforcement agencies have gotten hooked on and, in some cases, corrupted by seized drug money—won three national awards: a Scripps Howard National Journalism Award for Investigative Reporting, a Sigma Delta Chi Society of Professional Journalists Award for Investigative Reporting, and an Edward R. Murrow Award for the accompanying website. His 2007 three-part series "The Forgotten War," which took a critical look at the nation's 30-year war on drugs, won a Nancy Dickerson Whitehead Award for Excellence in Reporting on Drug and Alcohol Problems.
In 2006, Burnett's Uncivilized Beasts & Shameless Hellions: Travels with an NPR Correspondent was published by Rodale Press. In that year, he also served as a 2006 Ethics Fellow at the Poynter Institute for Media Studies in St. Petersburg, Florida.
In 2004, Burnett won a national Edward R. Murrow Award from the Radio-Television News Directors Association for investigative reporting for his story on the accidental U.S. bombing of an Iraqi village. In 2003, he was an embedded reporter with the First Marine Division during the invasion of Iraq. His work was singled out by judges for the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award honoring the network's overall coverage of the Iraq War. Also in 2003, Burnett won a first place National Headliner Award for investigative reporting about corruption among federal immigration agents on the U.S.-Mexico border.
In the months following the attacks of September 11, Burnett reported from New York City, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. His reporting contributed to coverage that won the Overseas Press Club Award and an Alfred I. duPont Columbia University Award.
In 2001, Burnett reported and produced a one-hour documentary, "The Oil Century," for KUT-FM in Austin, which won a silver prize at the New York Festivals. He was a visiting faculty member in broadcast journalism at the Poynter Institute for Media Studies in 2002 and 1997. He received a Ford Foundation Grant in 1997 for a special series on sustainable development in Latin America.
Burnett's favorite stories are those that reveal a hidden reality. He recalls happening upon Carlos Garcia, a Mexico City street musician who plays a musical leaf, a chance encounter that brought a rare and beautiful art form to a national audience. In reporting his series "Fraud Down on the Farm," Burnett spent nine months investigating the abuse of the United States crop insurance system and shining light on surprising stories of criminality.
Abroad, his report on the accidental U.S. Air Force bombing of the Iraqi village of Al-Taniya, an event that claimed 31 lives, helped listeners understand the fog of war. His "Cocaine Republics" series detailed the emergence of Central America as a major drug smuggling region. But listeners may say that one of his best remembered reports is an audio postcard he filed while on assignment in Peshawar, Pakistan, about being at six-foot-seven the "tallest American at a Death to America" rally.
Prior to coming to NPR, Burnett was based in Guatemala City for United Press International covering the Central America civil wars. From 1979-1983, he was a general assignment reporter for various Texas newspapers.
Burnett graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a bachelor's degree in journalism.

After genotyping, we merged both HapMap and 1,000 Genomes genotypes with the Popres/Iceman-merged dataset, resulting in a final analysis dataset containing 125,729 SNPs. PCA was then performed on all samples, excluding the five 1,000 Genomes samples, which were subsequently projected onto the PC space inferred from the rest of the dataset.UPDATE: The Iceman's genome can be found at the http://icemangenome.net site.
UPDATE I (Y-chromosome):
From the paper:
We addressed this issue here by analysing the G2a4-defining L91 SNP in 7,797 chromosomes from 30 regions across Europe. Fig. 3d shows the spatial frequency distribution of G2a4 throughout Europe. The highest frequencies (25 and 9%) occur in southern Corsica and northern Sardinia, respectively, (Fig. 3e) while in mainland Europe the frequencies do not reach 1%.UPDATE II (Autosomal DNA):
In terms of autosomal DNA, the Iceman clearly clusters with modern Sardinians, and also appears slightly more removed than them compared to continental Europeans. Interestingly, at least as far as the PC analyssi shows, Sardinians appear to be intermediate between the Iceman and SW Europeans, rather than Italians. Perhaps, this makes sense if the Paleo-Sardinian language is indeed related to languages of Iberia.
I don't see a downloadable version of the Iceman's genome at the icemangenome.net site, but I've asked the corresponding author for a PLINK/EIGENSOFT version of it. I anticipate that, as I've predicted, this will appear to be largely "Mediterranean" according to Dodecad v3, or "Atlantic_Med" according to the newer K12b calculator. It appears that there has indeed been Sardinian continuity against a backdrop of European discontinuity.
UPDATE III (Sardinians):
The Iceman's genome also places the Sardinian genetic isolate into new light. Two explanations have been proposed for the fact that Sardinians appear genetically distinctive vis a vis continental Europeans:
- Sardinians have lost due to drift alleles that were present in continental Europe
- Continental Europeans have gained alleles that were not present in their Sardinian-like ancestors
Nature Communications 3, Article number: 698 doi:10.1038/ncomms1701
New insights into the Tyrolean Iceman's origin and phenotype as inferred by whole-genome sequencing
Andreas Keller et al.
The Tyrolean Iceman, a 5,300-year-old Copper age individual, was discovered in 1991 on the Tisenjoch Pass in the Italian part of the Ötztal Alps. Here we report the complete genome sequence of the Iceman and show 100% concordance between the previously reported mitochondrial genome sequence and the consensus sequence generated from our genomic data. We present indications for recent common ancestry between the Iceman and present-day inhabitants of the Tyrrhenian Sea, that the Iceman probably had brown eyes, belonged to blood group O and was lactose intolerant. His genetic predisposition shows an increased risk for coronary heart disease and may have contributed to the development of previously reported vascular calcifications. Sequences corresponding to ~60% of the genome of Borrelia burgdorferi are indicative of the earliest human case of infection with the pathogen for Lyme borreliosis.

Release date: 2005-05-09
This release contains a variety of fixes from 7.3.9, including several security-related issues.
A dump/restore is not required for those running 7.3.X. However, it is one possible way of handling a significant security problem that has been found in the initial contents of 7.3.X system catalogs. A dump/initdb/reload sequence using 7.3.10's initdb will automatically correct this problem.
The security problem is that the built-in character set encoding conversion functions can be invoked from SQL commands by unprivileged users, but the functions were not designed for such use and are not secure against malicious choices of arguments. The fix involves changing the declared parameter list of these functions so that they can no longer be invoked from SQL commands. (This does not affect their normal use by the encoding conversion machinery.) It is strongly recommended that all installations repair this error, either by initdb or by following the manual repair procedure given below. The error at least allows unprivileged database users to crash their server process, and might allow unprivileged users to gain the privileges of a database superuser.
If you wish not to do an initdb, perform the following procedure instead. As the database superuser, do:
BEGIN; UPDATE pg_proc SET proargtypes[3] = 'internal'::regtype WHERE pronamespace = 11 AND pronargs = 5 AND proargtypes[2] = 'cstring'::regtype; -- The command should report having updated 90 rows; -- if not, rollback and investigate instead of committing! COMMIT;
The above procedure must be carried out in each database of an installation, including template1, and ideally including template0 as well. If you do not fix the template databases then any subsequently created databases will contain the same error. template1 can be fixed in the same way as any other database, but fixing template0 requires additional steps. First, from any database issue:
UPDATE pg_database SET datallowconn = true WHERE datname = 'template0';
Next connect to template0 and perform the above repair procedure. Finally, do:
-- re-freeze template0: VACUUM FREEZE; -- and protect it against future alterations: UPDATE pg_database SET datallowconn = false WHERE datname = 'template0';
Change encoding function signature to prevent misuse
Repair ancient race condition that allowed a transaction to be seen as committed for some purposes (eg SELECT FOR UPDATE) slightly sooner than for other purposes
This is an extremely serious bug since it could lead to apparent data inconsistencies being briefly visible to applications.
Repair race condition between relation extension and VACUUM
This could theoretically have caused loss of a page's worth of freshly-inserted data, although the scenario seems of very low probability. There are no known cases of it having caused more than an Assert failure.
Fix comparisons of TIME WITH TIME ZONE values
The comparison code was wrong in the case where the --enable-integer-datetimes configuration switch had been used. NOTE: if you have an index on a TIME WITH TIME ZONE column, it will need to be REINDEXed after installing this update, because the fix corrects the sort order of column values.
Fix EXTRACT(EPOCH) for TIME WITH TIME ZONE values
Fix mis-display of negative fractional seconds in INTERVAL values
This error only occurred when the --enable-integer-datetimes configuration switch had been used.
Additional buffer overrun checks in plpgsql (Neil)
Fix pg_dump to dump trigger names containing % correctly (Neil)
Prevent to_char(interval) from dumping core for month-related formats
Fix contrib/pgcrypto for newer OpenSSL builds (Marko Kreen)
Still more 64-bit fixes for contrib/intagg
Prevent incorrect optimization of functions returning RECORD

Gov't: Most school discipline need not mean court
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration on Wednesday pressed the nation's schools to abandon what it described as overly zealous discipline policies that send students to court instead of the principal's office. Even before the announcement, school districts around the country have been taking action to adjust the policies that disproportionately affect minority students.
Attorney General Eric Holder said problems often stem from well intentioned "zero-tolerance" policies that can inject the criminal justice system into school matters.
"A routine school disciplinary infraction should land a student in the principal's office, not in a police precinct," Holder said.
But it's about race, too, the government said in a letter accompanying the new guidelines it issued Wednesday.
"In our investigations, we have found cases where African-American students were disciplined more harshly and more frequently because of their race than similarly situated white students," the Justice Department and Education Department said in the letter to school districts. "In short, racial discrimination in school discipline is a real problem."
The guidelines are not the first administration action regarding tough-on-crime laws or policies of the 1980s and '90s that have lost support more broadly since then. Holder announced last summer that he was instructing federal prosecutors to stop charging nonviolent drug offenders with crimes that carry mandatory minimum sentences, a change affecting crack cocaine sentences that have disproportionately affected minorities. And just before Christmas, President Barack Obama commuted the sentences of eight people serving long drug sentences.
The federal school discipline recommendations are nonbinding. They encourage schools to ensure that all school personnel are trained in classroom management, conflict resolution and approaches to de-escalate classroom disruptions — and understand that they are responsible for administering routine student discipline instead of security or police officers.
Still, Education Secretary Arne Duncan has acknowledged the challenge is finding the proper balance to keep schools safe and orderly.
The administration said that it would attempt to work out voluntary settlements if school disciplinary policies are found to violate federal civil rights laws.
That happened in Meridian, Miss., where the Justice Department spearheaded a settlement with the school district to end discriminatory disciplinary practices. The black students in the district were facing harsher punishment than white students for similar misbehavior.
Absent a voluntary agreement, the department could go to court to provide relief for individual students, among other things.
Zero-tolerance policies became popular in the 1990s and often have been accompanied by a greater police presence in schools. The policies often spell out uniform and swift punishment for offenses such as truancy, smoking or carrying a weapon. Violators can lose classroom time or even end up with a criminal record.
In Akron, Ohio, Superintendent David W. James said a recent analysis found higher percentages of black students being disciplined in almost every category. He said he's been criticized for not suspending African-American kids seen by teachers as a threat where he didn't think action was warranted.
James said he hopes the administration's effort will provide leverage for districts with parents, teachers and communities.
"If we're supposed to be here for these kids, what we want to try to do is work with them to find alternatives, to really drill down and find out what it is we're doing that's not meeting their needs," he said.
But Jim Hinson, superintendent of the Shawnee Mission school district, which includes several cities on the Kansas side of the Kansas City metropolitan area, said the school system already does most of the things the Obama administration recommends. He said the district doesn't have a zero-tolerance policy, except for students caught carrying weapons to schools.
"For carrying a weapon to school, yeah, you should probably be in serious trouble," Hinson said. "We have a zero tolerance policy for weapons coming in."
Overall, he described the recommendations as "highly offensive."
"This blanket statement that educators are discriminating against kids across the country and law enforcement officers are discriminating as well is inappropriate," Hinson said. "If there are problem areas that need to be addressed, you address those areas."
In many parts of the country, there already has been a shift toward recognizing that school discipline polices can be discriminatory, said Judith Browne Dianis, co-director of the Advancement Project, a think tank that specializes in social issues affecting minority communities.
Associations representing teachers, principals, school superintendents and school board members agreed that a disparity exists. "Numbers don't lie. They are there," said Beverly Hutton, a former high school principal in New Jersey who is director of professional development at the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
And there have been changes in individual districts around the country.
The school district in Buffalo, N.Y., adopted a new code of conduct to reduce suspensions after a 15-year-old, Jawaan Daniels, died in a drive-by shooting in 2010 as he left school to begin serving an out-of-school suspension for wandering the halls of school.
In Fairfax County, Va., an affluent suburb of Washington, the school board voted in 2012 to soften punishments for possession of marijuana and implement new policies on parental notification. The changes followed a yearlong review that was prompted in part by the suicides of two students who had faced discipline.
And in Miami, Broward County Public Schools last November reached an agreement with law enforcement and the NAACP to create an alternative to zero-tolerance discipline policies and shut off what some see as a school-to-prison pipeline.
Daniel A. Domenech, executive director of the School Superintendents Association said his organization has partnered with the Children's Defense Fund to work with five communities to improve school discipline practices: Harrisburg, Pa.; Houston; Racine, Wis.; Elgin, Ill., and Allegheny County, Pa.
Hutton said a Council of State Governments study of 1 million Texas students was a turning point in the debate. It found that nearly six of 10 public school students were suspended or expelled at least once in the middle school or high school years. It also found that African-American students had a 31 percent higher likelihood of a school discretionary discipline action compared to white and Hispanic students.
In American schools, black students without disabilities were more than three times as likely as whites to be expelled or suspended, according to government civil rights data from 2011-2012. Although black students made up 15 percent of students in the data collection, they made up more than a third of students suspended once, 44 percent of those suspended more than once and more than a third of students expelled.
More than half of students involved in school-related arrests or referred to law enforcement were Hispanic or black.
Domenech said, "Superintendents recognize that out-of-school suspension is outdated and not in line with 21st-century education." But, he said, federal funding for programs that address school discipline issues has been scarce.
Among the recommendations:
—Ensure that school personnel understand that they, not security or police officers, are responsible for administering routine student discipline.
—Draw clear distinctions about the responsibilities of school security personnel.
—Provide opportunities for school security officers to develop relationships with students and parents.

Inferior Ptolemaic Model DocumentsThis material has 3 associated documents. Select a document title to view a document's information. Main DocumentInferior Ptolemaic Model
written by
Todd Timberlake The Ejs Inferior Ptolemaic model illustrates Ptolemy's orbit for a inferior planet. The model consists of a deferent circle, centered on a point some distance from Earth (at the eccentric point). Attached to this deferent is the center of another circle, the epicycle. The center of the epicycle moves around the deferent with constant angular speed as seen from the equant point, which is exactly opposite the center of the deferent from Earth (so the center of the epicycle does not move at constant speed along the deferent). The planet moves along the epicycle at constant speed. This model is capable of reproducing retrograde motion and variations in the planet's brightness. It can also reproduce variations in the apparent size and spacing of the retrograde arcs. In this simulation the planet is assumed to move in the plane of the ecliptic, so its latitude is always zero. You can modify this simulation if you have Ejs installed by right-clicking within the plot and selecting "Open Ejs Model" from the pop-up menu item.

Atlanta developer has plans for old Chevrolet site
Atlanta developer has plans for old Chevrolet site
Chance Partners seeking fourth development here in 14 months
Tuscaloosa News – Last Modified: Saturday, March 16, 2013 at 10:48 p.m
TUSCALOOSA | Two months ago, following approval of its third Tuscaloosa mixed-use development in 12 months, Chance Partners of Atlanta said it had a long-term vision for the downtown area.
Now, the company is seeking approval for its fourth — and most ambitious — project to date.
On Monday, Chance Partners will go before the Tuscaloosa Planning and Zoning Commission for approval of a $42-million residential and retail project on a 7.6-acre riverfront site.
The company has an option to purchase the former Tuscaloosa Chevrolet site, located on the north side of Jack Warner Parkway between the Tuscaloosa Amphitheater and Bank of Tuscaloosa development, and will go forward if the project is approved by the planning commission and ultimately the City Council.
Chance Partners envisions a 201-unit, 452-bed development with an on-site, 450-space parking deck and almost 40,000 square feet of retail space.
An additional 134 parking spaces are set among the five-building site plan. One of the buildings would be four stories with the others three stories or less.
Christopher Kritzman, partner and developer for Chance Partners, said the design includes elements of the city's Downtown and Riverfront redevelopment plans, as well as aspects of the Tuscaloosa Forward Strategic Rebuilding Plan.
"We went back and came up with something that built on all those points," Kritzman said.
Chance Partners said it was aware of the risk it was taking in proposing a large-scale development there. In February 2012, the City Council rejected in a 4-2 vote a proposal by Carter development company to put 854 bedrooms in 270 apartment units and 7,500 square feet of retail space on the site. In the hopes of getting a more favorable answer, Chance
Partners has reduced the number of residential units and increased the amount of retail space.
"We saw a lot of missteps that (Carter) made," said Judd Bobolin, president and CEO of Chance Partners.
It also has tucked away from public view such amenities as the swimming pool and common residence areas to preserve the overall family-friendly image that city leaders have said they want for the area.
Additionally, the plan has connections to the Riverwalk recreational trail and three entrances — two from Jack Warner Parkway and one from Greensboro Avenue — for non-residents who are looking to shop or eat in the development.
"This is private land, but it's viewed as public land, so there has to be entry points," Kritzman said.
If approved, the project, dubbed Riverfront Village, will bring Chance Partners' total investment in the Tuscaloosa market to more than $62 million.
In January, the City Council gave its blessing for an $11.5 million, four-story development called Green Bear, consisting of townhouse-style apartments, single-story apartments and retail space on a 1.4-acre site at the intersection of Greensboro Avenue and Paul W. Bryant Drive.
In March 2012, the city approved the $8.25-million Boulevard Lofts, an 18-unit, 46-bed development that has been completed and already fully leased on the former parking lot across University Boulevard from City Hall.
The company's first Tuscaloosa project was the $5 million Townhomes at Metal Works, a five-unit, 15-bedroom complex announced in January 2011. It is at 100 percent lease capacity for this year and next, the company said. Bobolin said Chance Partners' commitment to the Tuscaloosa area is rooted in several aspects. One is the company's belief that the resurgence of Tuscaloosa's downtown is missing only a healthy, high-quality offering of retail units.
Also, it's part of the company's philosophy.
"When we go into a market, we take the time to get to know the community and the city staff," Bobolin said. "So it's stupid to spend all that human capital and then get up and leave. It's easier for us to continue to build in a market we believe in.
"We're not flippers. We want to hold our properties. And we want to be considered a part of the community even though we're out of town."

XSetClipOrigin can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.
The XSetClipMask function sets the clip-mask in the specified GC to the specified pixmap. If the clip-mask is set to None, the pixels are are always drawn (regardless of the clip-origin).
XSetClipMask can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, BadMatch, and BadValue errors.
The XSetClipRectangles function changes the clip-mask in the specified GC to the specified list of rectangles and sets the clip origin. The output is clipped to remain contained within the rectangles. The clip-origin is interpreted relative to the origin of whatever destination drawable is specified in a graphics request. The rectangle coordinates are interpreted relative to the clip-origin. The rectangles should be nonintersecting, or the graphics results will be undefined. Note that the list of rectangles can be empty, which effectively disables output. This is the opposite of passing None as the clip-mask in XCreateGC, XChangeGC, and XSetClipMask.
If known by the client, ordering relations on the rectangles can be specified with the ordering argument. This may provide faster operation by the server. If an incorrect ordering is specified, the X server may generate a BadMatch error, but it is not required to do so. If no error is generated, the graphics results are undefined. Unsorted means the rectangles are in arbitrary order. YSorted means that the rectangles are nondecreasing in their Y origin. YXSorted additionally constrains YSorted order in that all rectangles with an equal Y origin are nondecreasing in their X origin. YXBanded additionally constrains YXSorted by requiring that, for every possible Y scanline, all rectangles that include that scanline have an identical Y origins and Y extents.
XSetClipRectangles can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, BadMatch, and BadValue errors.

North Korea's next provocative move — the test firing of a medium-range ballistic missile — could happen at any moment, according to South Korean officials.
Bloomberg Businessweek reports that "the possibility of a ballistic missile launch is 'very high' and 'may materialize anytime from now,' South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung Se told lawmakers in Seoul today."
Bloomberg also notes that "any weapons test may coincide with the April 15 [Monday] anniversary of state founder Kim Il Sung, the current leader's grandfather. On April 13 of last year, North Korea fired a long range rocket that disintegrated shortly after liftoff, then successfully launched another in December."
Officials from South Korea say the North has moved missiles and equipment to a launch site on its east coast. Any missile that's fired would most likely fly east — perhaps over Japanese territory — before falling into the Pacific.
On Tuesday, as we reported, the commander of the U.S. Pacific Command said American forces currently have the ability to intercept a North Korean ballistic missile if necessary.
As Reuters adds, "Signs of anxiety ... remained notably absent in chilly Seoul, long used to North Korean invective under its 30-year-old leader Kim Jong-un. Offices worked normally and customers crowded into city-center cafes." That's what NPR's Frank Langfitt was reporting for us Tuesday.
We've been tracking the tensions on the Korean peninsula in recent weeks. Our other posts are collected here.
Update at 9:55 a.m. ET. Troops On "Increased Alert":
From Seoul, Frank adds that "both U.S. and South Korean troops are on increased alert as Northeast Asia braces" for a possible missile test. But, as he adds in a report for our Newscast Desk, "most South Koreans think the war talk is bluster and that any missile test would be designed to frighten the South into making concession and getting the U.S. to sit down for talks."

We have a lot to catch up on. I guess I've put off writing this because there is SO MUCH.
It was always in the back of our minds that we* would do a yearly print edition of Rookie, and by the time May rolled around, we realized that we should probably get on that if we wanted to publish it in time for our September anniversary. After a call with Drawn & Quarterly (and years of admiring basically everything they publish), it was clear that they were the perfect publisher for this...book? magazine? of online content, edited by a minor. IT IS SO AMAZING THAT THEY BELIEVED IN US. I cannot think of better hands to have been in.
In early June, I spent the summer days I had at home living out the PG version of Dazed and Confused and working on the book. In late June, the Rookie Road Trip kicked off in New York. We went record shopping and banner-making in Philadelphia, got ice cream in Columbus, played arcade games in Ann Arbor, made zines and saw Girls Rock! Chicago in Chicago (and my WORLDS COLLIDED through a viewing of Superbad with my school friends and Rookie staffers), went vintage shopping in Iowa City, saw Moonrise Kingdom and crafted at Urban Outfitters in Omaha, raced go-karts in Boulder, made banners in a sculpture park in Salt Lake City, I was sick in Boise, made crowns in Seattle, got Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland, got ice cream in Eureka, got ice cream in San Francisco, hung out at the Henry Miller Library in Big Sur, and created an installation in Los Angeles, where we held a week of events.
These diaries on Rookie and tidbits on the Rookie tumblr might begin to give you an idea of how amazing it all was.
I realized recently that most of my memories are of things that never happened -- I rarely get nostalgic for actual events, just for book illustrations or scenes from movies or fantasies or unmet expectations. This summer created the kind of moments that I always thought would've only existed in my memory as fantasies. But they were real life! And they were shared with people who really wanted to be there! It's all too much for me to wrap my brain around, frankly. Last summer was when I really started transforming my room into my own world, and it became the school year's setting for feeling really happy and really sad and everything in between. Last summer I also started working on Rookie, and it became the school year's setting for a bunch of us for dealing with feeling really happy and really sad and everything in between. The installation in LA, Strange Magic, was basically a mutant teenage bedroom/gigantic shrine, with photography from The Ardorous curated by Petra on the walls, and teen bedroom arrangements by both of us everywhere else. The whole thing -- creating it, dismantling it, and all the events -- was heinously and overwhelmingly emotional in a way only silly teenagers crave and thrive off of. I'd shipped a huge box of stuff from my own room to the space for us to use, and we asked girls who came to our meet-ups to bring souvenirs from their own sanctuaries as well, and it was such a perfect manifestation of everything that's shaped how I see things these past few years that I feel like there's nothing else I can do to honor them all. Like it's time for me to get really into sports and black clothes and never watch The Virgin Suicides again. We ended up shipping home FIVE BOXES of everything accumulated, and I think I just need to put it all in a time capsule. Then I will simply lie on a mattress on my floor with nothing on my walls but a Pulp Fiction poster as a reminder to just be Mia Wallace. Then my parents will suspect I have turned to drugs, and then I will probably once again go back to all that Strange Magic stuff eventually. You can see photos of the installation here, and photos of our last event -- a prom -- here.
Rookie Yearbook One is officially out, available on Rookie, Amazon, at Barnes & Noble, and at various independent book and zine stores. Because it's a more unique situation than if I had just written a book, this is how it worked: I send the moodboards/theme/musings about the theme to our contributors for every month of the website, Anaheed and I choose from our contributors' resulting pitches, Anaheed and Phoebe edit everything and I put together the photo albums, I sometimes have a couple notes on written pieces. For Yearbook, Anaheed and I narrowed down the pieces from the site that would go in, I gave initial direction and feedback on how every spread should look, every photo story edit, every title font, every border, every illustration placement, I scanned my doodles and fabrics and handwriting for decoration, etc. Sonja decorated most spreads with her beautiful collage and illustration, and Tracy from D&Q designed it. I knew we couldn't just transfer all this content you can get for free online in a simple, minimalist layout, plus I get too excited about the look of each monthly theme, so this book was obsessively art directed with lots of love. I don't think I've slept since Rookie started last September, and I couldn't be happier. Not sarcasm!
Then I went on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to talk about it, and to teach him how to bitchface (and got to wear a lovely dress by my pal Rachel Antonoff, which had me feelin' like I could lead a ladies lunch seminar on DRESSING FOR CONFIDENCE):
I am also on the August/September cover of one of my favorite magazines, Bust, which you can get here. Support them! They rule! Anaheed did the interview, and Laia styled the shoot, and I just think often about how grateful I am that my favorite people are also the people I work with.
I suppose that's it for now? Life is very strange and very funny and I am very, very, very lucky that I get to do something I love and that you pay even a smidgen of attention to it, so thank you, times a lot, times a bunch.
*We = me, my dad (our unofficial business advisor), managing editor Lauren, and editorial director Anaheed.

And there were LOTS of embellishments with metallic bows and flowers, kind of as if the wearer was a little girl going through her grandma's jewelry box (from when grand mam mam had her 60's heydey) and sort of decorating herself with brooches.
It started out with the bright colors and cartoon-ish lace (which I will now refer to as the little sister of Prada's) but towards the end got to a place that was darker, a different kind of romantic, slightly stark..
There were parts I didn't care for or that wouldn't have really improved today's game of kickball, (which is now the new standard for everything: would it improve my pitiful, athletically-challenged middle school experiences? WOULD IT?) such as the low cut-overall situations and skirts-over-pants (maybe because I was too reminded of my 3rd grade days when I decided I was really edgy and //alt for wearing a skirt over a pair of jeans. THE MEMORIES, MAKE THEM STOPPPPPP). They didn't feel out of place in the collection but my sentiments for them were those of Enid's here:
The spring collection will always be my favorite, and that kind of magic can't happen twice. But over all, it was cute and fun and Miu Miu. And it still would've made that really awful game of kickball much, much better.

The new ultra high contrast (UHC) LPR filter has improved contrast over the typical broadband filters. Sky background is darker, and contrast of emission nebulae are noticeably improved. The advanced technology coatings enable the filter to achieve an outstanding transmission of over 97% across the entire bandpass, with total blockage of prominent light pollution lines. The perfect filter for viewing nebula from light polluted skies, or for boosting the contrast of nebula from dark sky sites.
In addition to its optimum spectral and optical characteristics, the UHC/LPR filter offers important features that set it apart and result in the highest quality celestial views:
The multi-layer dielectric coatings are plasma assisted and Ionbeam hardened using the latest technology for durability and resistance to scratching.
Improved transmission translates to maximum image brightness and contrast. Users of smaller, 4"-11" telescopes will especially appreciate the high efficiency, and larger scope users will love the rich star fields and detailed subtle nebular shadings that are left intact.
The high transmission, sharp cutoffs, and more moderate 60nm passband of the UHC/LPR filter retains a more natural view, yet significantly boosts overall contrast. Imagers will appreciate the broader bandpass and inclusion of an extremely efficient H-Alpha passband (656nm).

Welcome to Dragon Cave! Dragon Cave is an online adoptables game. Collect eggs, raise them to adulthood, and then breed them to create interesting lineages. New dragons are added regularly!
Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It always seems to be hungry.
And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing.
Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling's wings grow in, it typically marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are often capable of hunting on their own and are usually left alone by their mother.

Lemon Anise Churros
Photo Courtesy of Nicki Dowey
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...When a chef whose specialty is Southwestern cooking, adds Asian spices to pâte à choux, the end result is a churro with attitude. In its simplest form, a churro is a cylindrical piece of fried dough. It was developed by Spanish shepherds centuries ago and it got its name because it resembled the horns of the Churro sheep they tended. The original churro was the size of a breadstick and was usually eaten for breakfast. The churro escaped its borders during the Age of Discovery and can now be found on tables in many parts of the world. Chef David Walzog added ground star anise and lemon zest to the churros he made during his tenure in the kitchen at Arizona 206. They are delicious and easy to make, but they are not with out pitfalls. The churro must be well-drained, but still warm when it receives its sugar coating, and it must be served immediately after that's been done. These wait for no man or woman. You've been warned. You'll see what happens when I don't follow my own advice at the bottom this post. Having shared that with you, I'd like it to remain our little secret. If you have never had a churro, I hope you will give this recipe a try. If you've had them before, I hope you'll give this version a try. The star anise and lemon zest make these really special. Here's the recipe.
Lemon Anise Churros...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite, inspired by David Walzog
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
1 stick (4-oz.) unsalted butter
2 teaspoons ground star anise
Grated zest of 1 lemon
4 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup confectioners' sugar
Vegetable oil for deep frying
1) Sift flour and salt into a medium bowl
2) Combine water, butter, anise and lemon zest in a 3-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add flour, all at once, and cook, beating constantly until flour forms a ball and films bottom of pan. Remove pan from heat.
3) Beat in eggs, one at a time, until incorporated and mixture is smooth and shiny.
4) Combine granulated sugar and confectioners' sugar in a plastic bag and set aside.
5) Spoon batter into a pastry bag fitted with a medium-sized star tip.
6) Heat 3-inch of oil in a deep pan until it reaches 375 degrees F.
7) Pipe batter into oil in 5 to 6-inch lengths. Do not crowd pan. Fry until golden brown, about three minutes. Remove from oil and drain on paper toweling. Continue frying until all batter has been used.
8) Drop warm churros into bag of sugar and shake to generously coat. Serve immediately. Yield: 6 servings

When I lived in California, you could find Mexican street vendors selling churros. They were so good, but not fancy flavors like these. I've never even thought to try and make them, but now that you've reminded me just how good they are, I'll have to give it a try. Thanks!

Hi Mary, this recipe is great! I love churros, but the long ones are usually too much and after half of it I'm sick of the flavor. These bite sized churros are the perfect treat and I love the flavoring.

Love churros, but I must say, I prefer to eat them when prepared by someone other than myself! All this frying and serving right away does require a bit of speed and finesse!

New York's Mayor Bloomberg has hired a former FEMA official with experience in Hurricane Katrina to direct the city's housing recovery. NPR's Martin Kaste reports it's another sign of the seriousness of the housing shortage caused by the storm.
MARTIN KASTE, BYLINE: There are no hard numbers on how many people have been displaced in New York and New Jersey. But you do get a sense of the scale by looking at what the department of housing and urban development has undertaken so far. It's already approved $95 million to help pay the rent for 32,000 applicants. And HUD secretary Shaun Donovan says there's also money going for hotel rooms.
SHAUN DONOVAN: The short term lodging that can be used in participating hotels. In New York and New Jersey we have 34,000 applicants determined eligible already.
KASTE: But the key word there is participating hotels. At an improvised shelter in a gym at Hillcrest High School in Queens, Janet Nieves shows the list of hotels that FEMA gave her.
JANET NIEVES: We just called them and some of them don't even take you. Some of them say we have to pay cash.
KASTE: The list is just a screen dump of local hotels printed from Expedia. When Nieves and others at this shelter call the numbers, they often find themselves connected to the hotel's national reservation systems where there is little confidence in FEMA's pledge to pay their hotel bills. She says it might be easier if the system weren't so virtual.
NIEVES: The hotels want to know if we got the vouchers on us to give to them when we get there. But no, we don't have none of that.
KASTE: Still, it's not clear that a piece of paper would make a difference for Nieves, her husband, her four kids, and the three dogs. Even if they could pay up front, it's hard to find a place that would put them up the way they want in one big room. There are also a lot of people who are staying in their homes despite adverse conditions. In New York's Far Rockaway, recovery crews are still pumping mud out of the basement of a 24-story apartment building.
It's right on the beach and residents had a front row seat for the storm. Now they're still waiting for power and heat. Melanie Waters shows the way up the pitch black stairwell with a flashlight.
MELANIE WATERS: You've just got to go right through to that door, if you can see it. Ooh, this is where I've been hauling the water up. I'll show you what it's like here.
KASTE: The hallways are frigid. Nighttime temperatures are now in the 30s, but Waters' neat apartment is relatively warm. It's a humid warmth. She points at the gas stove.
WATERS: I burn the burners, all four. I take a pot of water and leave it right here and let the steam do it. And I leave it real low overnight. That's why it's so warm. This is from all night.
KASTE: She says she's considered taking the trip inland to a shelter like the one in the high school, but so far she hasn't thought it worthwhile to trade her own bed for a cot in a gymnasium. Waters hadn't heard that FEMA might pay for up to two weeks in a hotel room. Back outside, her neighbor, Ronnie LaCouer, and his developmentally disabled son John, are getting some air by the pumps.
Ronnie says he hadn't heard of the hotel offer either and he would definitely consider it.
RONNIE LACOUER: A hotel would be perfect because I can shower, I can watch, like I said, I have a mentally challenged boy. He loves church and he loves the TV. And every night when it's dark, he don't understand it.
KASTE: And just then a van pulls up and unloads a couple of dozen young AmeriCorps workers in matching jackets, and they fan out into the neighborhood. They're here to tell residents about shelter options as well as loans and grants for people whose homes have been damaged or destroyed, people for whom recovery will require a lot more than just a two-week stay in a government-funded hotel room.

We can carry out various athletics track repairs including retexturing a structural spray polymeric surface to bring back the perfect texture specification for different athletics events and repainting on line markings for clear scoring in competitive events and races. Before these repair works can be carried out, it's important to make sure that the existing sports track surfacing is thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt and debris on the surface so that the new layer of structural spray or paint is smooth and seamless.
This running track cleaning in Bollihope can be done by pressure washing the area with a specialist system which extracts the dirt away from the running track instead of just moving debris around where it can get stuck back into the surfacing.

All of these variables can have an effect on the costs but we may tailor a price for each athletics track repairs which suits your budget.
We can also offer advice on how you can maintain your own rubber running track through regular brushing and sweeping to get rid of any dirt, litter or organic matter which might sit on the surface and cause it to become contaminated.
If over time, your sports surfacing becomes very worn out and damaged, we can complete a running track resurface in Bollihope which will involve ripping up the existing surface and replacing it with a new one http://www.runningtracks.co.uk/resurfacing/county-durham/bollihope/ which you can learn more about here.

The main benefit of the introduction of the sugar tax is the reduction in childhood obesity. The taxing of fizzy drinks and other products high in sugar, not only deters young people from buying them but also creates extra money which can then be used to fund sporting facilities in -
The extra money from the sugar tax could also be used for running tracks repairs, as well as to renew old facilities.

Most of the time a single track could be used for multi-use purposes with different activities including relay races, long-jump in addition to bleep tests.
This could be great for educational institutions if there is not sufficient space for a standard 400m running track. Since the individuals may then take part in many activities, they may find a certain one which they love and want to carry on in a qualified sports centre. There aren't very many facilities which target people at the beginners level, which makes young people unwilling to engage in sports.
It is necessary for little ones to participate in particular sports and athletics from a young age - Key Stage One and Key Stage Two - and proceed through KS3 and KS4.
