Ok, first of all, I would like to thank the Xfce team for creating a desktop that is both fast, and full of features. I tried Xfce a while back, and only recently decided to give it another whirl. From the moment I started using it, it seemed to roll out the red carpet and treated me to some of the fastest, most no-nonsense desktop experiences I have ever seen.
Having said that, there are a few issues I am having that I really need resolved so that I can continue using this amazing desktop environment.
1) I accidentally left nautilus running when I closed Xfce and now I'm forced to use the metacity window manager, and I cannot seem to get it to go back to Xfwm. I have tried deleting the files in the xfce desktop .cache subfolder but it still wont let go.
2) Every time I start, it wants to re-load the applications I had running the last time I logged in. I know some people like this feature but I really ~really~ hate it. I like starting with a fresh desktop each and every time I log in. I have unchecked the "Save sessions on logout" option but it still wants to remember applications that have been previously started.
(and a minor one below that isn't 100% important, just a minor gripe)
3) Is there a volume manager app that doesn't show the slider along side the icon? I vastly prefer a single speaker icon that I click on to see the slider. I know its a very minor thing, but that volume bar looks/feels ackward to me.
Thanks in advance!
I'm new to xfce, but I think I can help with #2. You need to turn ON "automatically save session on logout", close all your windows, then log out. Log back in, and turn OFF "automatically save session on logout". After this, you should get a nice clean desktop when you log in, except for auto-started applications.
I am new to xfce too but for your problem #1 you can open a terminal and enter
$xfwm4 --replace
The other thing you can check is the xfce4-session.rc file, I think it is located somewhere like /etc/xdg/xfce4desktop/xfce-session/ I am at work on a windows box so I am not positive on the location, there is a line in there something like Custom0 = xfwm4 just double check xfwm4 is there and it should be loading xfce window manager at start.
And for number #3: just remove the mixer-icon on your panel, replace that by a normal 'launcher' which you use to start the mixer program of choice.
For number 3 I use absvolume

We will likely be without Carmelo Anthony tonight
Might be a tough game, Kyrie Irving and Varejao have helped make the Cavs a respectable team this year. Irving will almost certainly rape us, no KY or vaseline. Im thinking the Knicks will win a close game and extend our winning streak to 4

Nice pics of Paine Field and some of Boeing's biggest...watching those Dreamlifters lumber down the runway is sort of interesting. As in, "is that monster EVER going to get airborne?"
Mr. Allen's collection is small compared to some museums, but it is very high quality. I never expected to ever see an Me 163 Komet anywhere but on cable TV. Well worth the trip to this exhibit for visitors to Seattle area.
Current schedule includes a "Luftwaffe Day" on August 6 with the intent to fly a Storch, a Me 109, and a Focke-Wulf 190.

The heat capacity is how much heat (energy - in joules) do you have to put into 1 gram of something to raise the temperature 1C (or K - same thing). It does not speak to how fast the heat goes in and out. That's conductivity.I don't think "saturation" is a technical term, but I take it to mean "full of heat." It doesn't matter what you put in the oven, at some point it's going to have as much heat as it can hold - a function of the mass, temperature, and heat capacity of the material. With respect to the quantity of heat when fully "saturated," the type material doesn't matter; you just may need more or less mass.
OK great. I have been confusing saturation for conductivity.What is it called that I can get my stone to 640+ degres yet my oven dial only says 550....
Time to get your oven thermostat calibrated?
I seriously thought people buy pizza stones because they can get hotter than what the actual oven puts out(besides it's even cooking qualities). That's sorta why I was hung up on the "saturation" thing...You're not just mess'in with Bob's mind here are you Tex?
It can get hotter if you stick it under the broiler, right? If you oven heats from the top or the bottom, the stone is going to block and absorb much of the radiant heat that would otherwise be heating the other side of the oven. I might make sense that the stone heats faster than the rest of the oven because of this and will in fact get hotter above the air temp - for a while. After a suitable period of time, everything will equalize to about the same temp as heat from the stone replaces heat lost from the oven to the external environment. I would think this is most likely if your heat comes from the bottom and the thermostat in on the top or vice versa. Or maybe your oven really isn't calibrated?
I'm am good.

A central Ohio woman who loathed being named Sheila and wanted a moniker that reflects her personality has legally changed her first name to Sexy.
A Licking County judge on Tuesday approved the request from the 41-year-old Pataskala woman formerly named Sheila Ranea Crabtree.
In her application, Crabtree called her given name "the ugliest one out there." She says that if the court didn't allow the switch to Sexy, she'd try to become known legally by her middle name, which she has used for years.
The Columbus Dispatch reports that Crabtree told a judge that her husband and teenage daughters approve of the change. When the judge asked why she chose Sexy, Crabtree said she's fun and free-spirited and thought the change would make her complete.

text: Hated, hated Cloverfield! And honestly, my husband was initially floored by the 09 Trek, but once he started watching TOS and TNG, he flat out said to me there is a lot less heart and soul and more flash in the reboot. I'm really in no rush to see anything Abrams does. And I'm sorry, but I just have to say, the consensus here is that Fassbender is the best, and Zoe Kravitz is one of the worst- contested with JJ of course. So, is it strange that I find something at odds in the fact that MF and Zoe are dating? Did the script really just serve him better or his he that much more talented? A little of both? If there is a sequel, I somehow hope Angel and Emma Frost are not in it. I really don't understand why they couldn't have had a recruitment montage, but when the battle came on, left the kids at home so to speak. Like in the original where not everyone at the school is actually one of the team. They really didn't need any of the young mutants beyond Beast and Mystique.

The Suns parted ways with GM Lance Blanks on Monday.
"Lance has been a trusted friend and colleague," Suns president Lon Babby said in a statement. "I thank him personally and professionally for his hard work on behalf of the Suns. We will continue to prepare for the offseason even as we look for his replacement."
Blanks, 46, had served as Suns GM since 2010 and had one year remaining on his contract. Prior to joining the Suns, he held front office positions with both the Cavaliers and Spurs. Blanks played three NBA seasons with the Pistons and Timberwolves in the early-1990s before continuing his playing career overseas.
Back in January, Blanks selected player development coordinator Lindsey Hunter as interim coach after the organization parted ways with coach Alvin Gentry. That decision led multiple Suns assistant coaches to leave the organization and reportedly set off a profanity-laced exchange between Blanks and veteran center Jermaine O'Neal.
Suns owner Robert Sarver defended Blanks in an interview with ArizonaSports.com, although he did critique his GM's ability to handle public relations.
He's not good at public relations. But that's not his job. Yes, I'd like him to do a little better. I'd wish he'd spend some time with some of you guys, so you can give him a fair shake. But his job is to put together a basketball team, that's his job, and I think he knows how to do that and I think he'll do a good job.
Meanwhile, Hunter's future with the organization remains up in the air. CBSSports.com reported earlier this week that Hunter could also be on his way out.
The Suns conducted their exit interviews a week ago, and a person familiar with the process told CBSSports.com that interim coach Lindsey Hunter did not fare well in his player evaluations. The Suns went 12-29 under Hunter -- one game worse than the first half of the season under Alvin Gentry -- and there's a feeling among some players that the team regressed. "Players don't want him back," one league source said.
The Suns finished 25-57, marking the worst record in the Western Conference, in their first season after trading Steve Nash and embarking on a rebuilding mission. Phoenix was 12-29 under Hunter. Back in March, The Point Forward identified the Suns as one of the Western Conference teams with the bleakest future and one of of the organizations most in need of a change in management.a two-year contract extension

US sergeant 'lucid and bloody' after Afghan massacre
JOINT BASE LEWIS-McCHORD, US: A military prosecutor has laid out the government's case against Army Staff Sergeant Robert Bales, accused of murdering 16 civilians this year in Afghanistan, as a pre-trial hearing began in one of America's worst war crimes cases in decades.
''He was lucid, coherent and responsive,'' said Lieutenant-Colonel Joseph Morse, the army prosecutor, describing Sergeant Bales's demeanour on arriving back at an army post in Kandahar province with blood on his clothes that, the prosecutor said, had seeped all the way through to his underwear.
Local families in a poor area with no electricity, Colonel Morse said, awoke early on March 11 to find a figure inside their homes, firing a weapon with apparent intent to kill. Children were shot through the thighs or in the head, he said. In one place, 11 bodies - mostly women and children - were ''put in a pile and put on fire''.
Sergeant Bales, 39, a military veteran of 11 years, could face the death penalty if found guilty of the most serious charges.
The hearings that began on Monday at the base where he was stationed, about an hour south of Seattle, are the first step in the military justice process, aimed at determining whether there will be a full court martial.
At least 35 witnesses are expected to testify, in hearings that could last two weeks or more.
The presiding officer, Colonel Lee Deneke, will then recommend to superiors the next steps, including the question of whether the death penalty should be considered, as the prosecution has requested.
One of the first witnesses, Corporal David Godwin, testifying under immunity from prosecution, told the court he had violated rules on the night of the killings by drinking alcohol with Sergeant Bales and another soldier.
Corporal Godwin repeatedly said that Sergeant Bales was ''coherent'' and that neither Sergeant Bales nor the other soldier, as far as Corporal Godwin could tell, were intoxicated.
Under defence questioning, Corporal Godwin said that Sergeant Bales was also wearing a cape when he returned to the unit. Questions asked by one of Sergeant Bales's defence lawyers, Emma Scanlan, suggested this indicated something odd.
''Is that normal behaviour?'' she asked.
''No,'' Corporal Godwin replied.
Another of Sergeant Bales's lawyers, John Henry Browne, has said his client suffered post-traumatic stress disorter.
Another witness, Sergeant First Class Clayton Blackshear, described Sergeant Bales at one point in the evening as ''ghostlike''. He then shrugged, and went on to say: ''There's no word in the English language.''

ORLANDO, Fla. - The mother of Michelle Parker, the Central Florida mother who vanished in 2011, is speaking out on Monday afternoon, days after Parker's family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Parker's ex-fiance.
Yvonne Stewart talked about the wrongful death lawsuit they filed with attorney Matt Morgan last week against Dale Smith Jr. -- the prime suspect in Parker's disappearance.
The lawsuit alleges Smith is responsible for the death of Parker and says, "on November 17, Smith was negligent or otherwise committed a wrongful act and caused the death of Michelle Parker."
Stewart said she believes Smith Jr. knows what happened to Michelle Parker and wants him to come clean.
"I sincerely believe evidence I know about his family and Dale haven't been honest and I want them to answer my questions under oath. I think they know," she said.
Parker was reported missing after the airing of a pre-recorded episode of the TV show "The People's Court," which featured the two in a dispute over her engagement ring. She dropped off their two kids at Smith Jr.'s house and hasn't been seen since.
Stewart said Smith Jr. has recently moved out of state. Attorney Mark NeJame represents Smith Jr., and says nothing links him to Parker's death.
Several searches have been launched in an effort to locate Parker, but none has been successful.

For the third straight week, John Legend topped Billboard's Hot 100 with "All of Me," but the bigger story resides further down the top 10.
After its release last week, Michael Jackson's "Love Never Felt So Good," which features Justin Timberlake, debuts inside the Hot 100's top 10 at No. 9, Billboard reports.
With the new top-10 single, Jackson becomes the first artist in history to score top-10 hits in five different decades — all of which were consecutive. The King of Pop's streak dates back to 1971, when he reached the top 10 for the first time with "Got to Be There" at No. 4.
Related: Quincy Jones Says Michael Jackson's 'XSCAPE' Was 'About Money'
Since then, according to Billboard, Jackson has now had 29 singles hit the top 10, third most in history. His most fruitful decade was the '80s, when 17 of his songs reached that plateau.

text: I remember how huge a lot of people seemed to think Nemesis was going to be when it was on its way, all the hype around it. And then it was finally released, and it was a disaster, a total damp squib ruined by poor decisions on the part of the makers, and corner-cutting. Very, VERY underwhelming, and a big blow to everyone who'd looked forward to it. In all honesty, this is kind of how I feel about DW's fiftieth anniversary special right now; Moffat and the BBC are hyping it up enormously, but there are also some indications that it won't do the last fifty years any real justice.

SCOTT Sweeps Podium Again
Daytona SX 2014
Scott Supercross athletes lined up in Daytona, FL this past weekend to battle inside of the prestigious Daytona International Speedway. Scott's flagship team, Team Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki, has been dominating the 250 east coast class and this weekend was a continuation of that dominance.
Adam Cianciarulo was the fastest in timed qualifying and was leading heat 2 until a bike problem dropped him back a few spots. This allowed his teammate Martin Davalos to take the heat win. Heat 1 was all Blake Baggett, as he set the pace heading into the main event. Davalos grabbed the holeshot in the main event and it was Scott athletes going 1-2-3 all the way to the checkered flags. Blake Baggett made his way into first early and checked out, leaving the battle for second to his teammates. Cianciarulo finished second and Davalos completed the podium sweep with a third.
In the 450 class, Dean Wilson lined up for his second race in the premier class. Dean blew everyone away by putting together the fastest lap time in qualifying and then backing it up with a heat 2 victory. He was battling up front in 2nd place for most of the race before dropping back to a 7th place finish. Team BTO Sports KTM WPS rider Andrew Short had his best showing of the year with a 5th place finish in the 450 main.
Next week the racing continues in Detroit, MI as supercross moves north to the Motor City.
Blake Baggett - Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki WINNER - 250 East Heat 1 Winner
Adam Cianciarulo - Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki 2nd Place - 250 East Pole Position
Martin Davalos - Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki 3rd Place - 250 East Heat 2 Winner Main Event Holeshot
Andrew Short - BTO Sports KTM WPS 5th Place - 450 Semi 2 Winner
Dean Wilson - TwoTwo Motorsports 7th Place - 450 Pole Position Heat 2 Winner
Matt Goerke - BTO Sports KTM WPS 8th Place - 250 East

A Guide to Low-Cost PCB Tools
51 comments post a comment
Many PCB tools are now available to the home user. Each tool has a different set of strengths and weaknesses.
As time has progressed, technology has become more accessible. PCB design tools used to be priced so high that only companies could afford them. Today many PCB tools are available to the home user. Each tool has a different set of strengths and weaknesses, though there are some really standout tools that are either free, open-source, or relatively low-cost. Many of the freeware programs are a subset of a commercial code.
Some may be skeptical about the usability and productivity of freeware, open-source, or low-cost programs. With regard to PCB tools, I have established a list of criteria that I find essential. Please note that freeware programs are often more polished than some open-source programs but will have limitations, such as number of components or pins allowed. Here is the minimum standard that I have set for PCB tools for my home use.
- Windows compatible: This is a must for me. Everyone has an opinion on this, but I find that I spend less time debugging programs in Windows than I do in any other operating system.
- Native schematic tool: Some programs require an external schematic editor. Even simple designs tend to change as you work through them. Some of the changes are as simple as changing an input pin on the microcontroller, but may also include adding circuitry to increase functionality. If the schematic editor is not tied to the rest of the software package, it is very easy for changes not to propagate into the final design.
- Footprint wizard: This is something that makes life much easier. PCB products without a footprint wizard have a tedious workflow. They direct you to find a product from the library that is somewhat similar and modify it. The problem with this workflow is that many new sensors are coming out with nonstandard footprints. Hacking something to fit your needs is tedious. It is much easier to start from scratch. With a good footprint wizard, you should be able to have a new part created in less than five minutes.
- Multilayer design capability: A two-layer board greatly simplifies routing, and most PCB prototyping houses offer this as their base option.
- 3D preview: Perhaps this is because of my mechanical background, but I find that this capability is underrated by many. With 3D preview, it is very easy to verify that all your parts will fit, and that you will have sufficient access to solder the parts. In my last project, I was able to use 3D preview to identify a problem very quickly with my connector spacing and correct it. This will serve as your final design check before manufacturing.
- Autorouter: Though many purists will argue that an autorouter is not desirable, I disagree. An autorouter helps find the best placement for components and can be used in an iterative method. I usually hand route any critical traces and then autoroute the remaining traces, followed by a final cleanup performed by hand. With care, an autorouter can be used to great advantage and can dramatically reduce the time spent in your design.
The following tools have a freeware version and meet the requirements outlined above.
The following tools can be had at low cost and meet the requirements outlined above.
This final group is a mix of freeware, open-source, and low-cost tools that are relegated to the honorable mention list because they are missing one or more of the required features.
In my efforts to find the best low-cost PCB tool available, I have started with DipTrace.
It is my goal to learn several of these tools. As I do so, I will be documenting my experiences. I will pass along any insights I learn, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of each program. If I have missed your favorite PCB tool in the lists above, please let me know. Help me understand why you think it should be on the list. Also, if you have a specific question about one of these tools, let me know, and I will see if I can answer it.

My wife and I celebrated our 50th anniversary, with our family, on a cruise from Bayone NJ to Bermuda. Ten of us all together. Ship was Celebrity Summit. Wonderul cruise, nice weather, endless delicious food, and great times with the family.
Disappointment on the cruise was the endless loud amplified music everywhere on the ship (I guess my age is showing).
However, the most delightful parts of the cruise were four operatic events given by the .the Opera Theater of Connecticut with talks by Alan Mann. A trio performed arias, duets and trios from Pucciini and Verdi. Heavenly!
Thank you Celebrity and Alan Mann. I hope there are encore performances.

Sept. 6, 2013
Here is the latest edition of Week In Review - a series of weekly messages from the Mayor and City Council to help Richardson residents and businesses keep up to date on events at City Hall.
City Council to Vote on Budget on Monday
The Richardson City Council is expected to formally approve the 2013-2014 Budget and the proposed tax rate of $0.63516 per $100 of assessed valuation, unchanged from the 2012-2013 rate, at a public meeting Monday in the City Council Chamber at City Hall.
The final public meeting in this year's budget process is open to the public and will begin at 7:30 p.m. The meeting will also be broadcast live on the City website at cor.net and on the City cable TV station (channel 16 on Time Warner and channel 99 on AT&T U-Verse).
See the proposed budget at cor.net/budget.
RFID Tagging Project at Library is Underway
Workers are nearly done tagging all materials in the Richardson Public Library's collection as implementation of a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system continues.
RFID uses tags to track and sort items as they are checked out and returned, allowing for more efficient management of the Library's collection.
The next step in the project, which is funded through the 2010 Bond Program, is to install self-service checkout kiosks and updated staffed checkout stations, as well as a new automated materials handling system. Installation of the new systems is tentatively scheduled for mid-October.
City to Conduct Ground Spraying for Mosquitos This Weekend
The Richardson Health Department plans to ground spray two areas beginning tonight, weather permitting, in order to help prevent the spread of the West Nile virus. Planned spraying was postponed until Saturday and Sunday in the area from Arapaho Road south to Spring Valley Road and Coit Road east to Central Expressway (US 75), in order to accommodate numerous residents who are expected to be outdoors for football games and other activities.
The decision to spray comes after City Health Department workers were notified that traps located within the subject spraying location returned mosquitoes that tested positive for carrying the disease.
The spray areas are:
Richardson began its West Nile virus monitoring program in April, which is the earliest it has ever begun testing for signs of the virus. The Richardson City Council approved increased surveillance this year due to the heightened incidence of West Nile virus cases experienced in the Metroplex in 2012.
For more information on Richardson's mosquito abatement program please visit cor.net/mosquito.

Leibniz and Berkeley both seem to me to be absolutely right in most of their critiques of Locke, taken simply as critiques. Even Berkeley's bold claim that matter doesn't exist, if we limit "matter" to what Locke and his contemporaries thought "matter" was, now seems to be basically true. Their alternative systems, however, contain significant crackpot elements. The sheer amount of work "God" has to do in each should have tipped them off that they were cheating.
Looking at the index of Process and Reality, I see that Whitehead makes copious references to Locke and Hume, but only a few to Leibniz and Berkeley — despite the fact that his system seems to bear more resemblance to the latter. In fact, for all Whitehead's love of Locke, it is difficult for me to discern the relationship between the two. So why the insistence on Locke and Hume? Is it a "political" move, to try to convince his logical positivist friends that he's working out of the modern tradition? If so, it didn't work.
Spinoza seems to me to be miles ahead of any of these guys. I'm not ready to sign on and become a Spinozan, but he's clearly the true radical.

My son, Andy, and I went to Road Prong on Saturday. It's been off limits because of the Chimney Tops trail closure since January until July 4 so I figured it was high time to see some familiar and favorite water. The water was still high (but very fishable) and the brookies were suffering from extreme memory loss ("Sure looks like lunch to me!"). It was my son's best day ever with a fly rod (numbers wise) and he out-fished his old man despite the fact that it's been a year since he picked up a rod. Humbling to say the least.
Got to meet Andy from Aiken SC on the stream. A hugely polite guy who saw our wet boot prints, came up stream to say hello and then disappeared to move to another part of the stream. Great to meet you, Andy, if you're out there.
The creekscape had changed significantly in several places as a result, I'm sure, of the same rain events that knocked out the Chimneys trail first bridge. For those who have fished between the fourth and fifth bridges, it's worth a trip up to see some of the changes. One huge old tree trunk that seems to have come from the old Peg Leg Falls explosion, was quite a ways down stream (check it out Ducky and see if it doesn't look familiar).
Great day for father and son with beautiful weather, beautiful stream and more than willing fish. Thank God for special days like that one.

Anyone notice that the original video from this post has been removed from Youtube?
We've all done a lot of tinkering with Malnati's dough but the one that I'm sticking with is from Reply #50 in this thread. I can't do better. http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,10161.msg89174.html#msg89174I made some pizzas following this formula yesterday that were the finest I've done and I think the slight improvement that I got out of it was due to the management of the dough. The dough was made 24 hrs. before use with, despite using IDY, some really warm water. Not exactly sure but probably around 110*. First the yeast went into the KA mixer bowl followed by the water. Quick whisk to mix them up. Added the oil then the flour. Mixed on "mix" speed of KA Artisan with dough hook for 2:15. I nuked three cups of water in a glass measuring cup to boiling then put the mass of dough into the mic along with the hot water for 1hr 45min. The entire mass went into a ziplock bag then into the fridge, back bottom where it's coldest. Pulled dough out 2 hours before use but let sit for only about 20 mins. before portioning. I heated up some water again then placed the dough balls into the microwave with that hot water just like the initial rise. Small area with high humidity was perfect. Very strong yeasty/beer fragrance to this, a great indicator to me that, based on previous experience, it should taste right on.I've included pics of the dough balls just after portioning when they were still cool. In the pic, the upper left dough ball is 285g for a 12" thin but the low center and upper right balls are each 340g for 9" deep dish pies. This is the closest looking to the Malnati's dough balls from the video (no longer available) that I've been able to produce. No pics of the finished pies but they were delicious!Here's the entire formulation:Flour (100%): 574.55 g | 20.27 oz | 1.27 lbs Water (45.88%): 263.6 g | 9.3 oz | 0.58 lbs IDY (0.5%): 2.87 g | 0.1 oz | 0.01 lbs | 0.95 tsp | 0.32 tbsp Olive Oil (3.8%): 21.83 g | 0.77 oz | 0.05 lbs | 4.85 tsp | 1.62 tbsp Corn Oil (19.12%): 109.85 g | 3.87 oz | 0.24 lbs | 8.14 tbsp | 0.51 cups Total (169.3%): 972.7 g | 34.31 oz | 2.14 lbs | TF = 0.1213 Any questions, just ask.Loo
LOO,What's your current oven temp and bake time for this recipe? Bottom oven rack? Stone or no stone? Thanks for such a great thread. Looking forward to trying this out!Thanks!BDogg
Depends on the pan. If you've got a nice dark pan, go middle rack at 475-500. I usually go 500. Bake time varies with size. I can do a pair of 9" pies in the oven at the same time in about 20 minutes and a few minutes longer for a 14". Light pan, use the stone on the bottom rack that's been preheated 45mins. at least at 550*. Place directly on stone but drop oven temp to 475 or 500 when it goes in. Cook time should be about the same.Loo
I actually cook at 490*. Don't ask. Loo
I am so confused with all these different oven temps.
I think all who commented are thinking of what temperature delivers for them the best end product . . . a tasty and delicious deep dish pizza that best matches what they've experienced, is their ideal, and which they love the most. But I can't help but believe that what all think is best for them is just a "guideline" for others. Ovens do vary a lot. And some like a more crisp pizza crust in one respect, but others like it a little differently in another respect. Trial and error to each person is what must be experienced. We're all just giving some of our own personal tips and thoughts, which may or may not apply to others. I'll give you another example of how home ovens vary. I have two homes and the oven at my "winter" home has a GE Profile electric oven with I think 8 or 9 oven rack levels, which is above average number for a home oven. Further, I have NO heating elements that are apparent in the oven at all, hence I can cook or bake a pizza on the very bottom level (or often on the next to the bottom level) without burning the crust (unless, of course, I leave it in for an exorbitant amount of time). Not so in my summer house where those brightly glowing red-hot heating elements exist out in the open on the bottom of the oven. Baking a pizza is vastly different between the two.Try making a pizza at 425 degrees F and try an identical pizza at 475 degrees (or higher) and see what appeals to you and yours the most. --BTB
Hello everyone. Long time visitor of this site. I have made a tweaked DMK source pizza many times but can someone kind of tell me the measurements for this formula for a 12 inch pan? I don't currently have a scale. I haven't been making deep dish in awhile but I'm intrigued. Seems like a fat boy friendly recipe......... OIL
Another question is there a huge difference when using say Gold Medal Bread flour instead of AP? I prefer using bread flour for NY crusts.

The Middlesex-London Health Unit in Ontario decided it needed a new way to reach high schoolers when it comes to sex education. And what do teenagers like more than video games? The result is quite possibly the most bizarre game ever, Adventures in Sex City.
Sounds awesome, right?! The game is just a True or False quiz about various sex facts. That part of the game is actually pretty good; it covers a lot of common misconceptions people have. But that's not the strange part. Let's meet the characters you get so select from the Sex Squad:
- Wonder Vag "is a virgin, believes in true love and promotes abstinence until marriage." She's also a stereotypical blonde white girl.
- Willy the Kid "was bullied as a child because he never grew taller tjem 4 feet, and is now sensitive to others who are different. He joined Sex Squad to prove size doesn't matter." Except that he's drawn with a giant bulging package, and is black. Totally not stereotypical. Oh, and apparently his special power is "massive rock hard strength." What?
- Power Pap "is sexually active and is a strong believer in getting tested regularly. After a close encounter with a horrible STI, she was treated and now dedicates her life to testing and pap tests." She also looks Latino to me, but I'm going to assume I'm looking way too into this and it's not some message about race and sexual activity.
- Captain Condom "was a scientist who constantly worked in his lab to create the perfect condom. Due to a freak accident, he is now half condom half man." Oh scientists. What's his special power, he likes people ejaculating inside of him?
But cheesy superheroes isn't the bad part. "In the dark of the night, Sex City is in panic because of the terrible Sperminator whose sole mission is to infect all citizens with various sexually transmitted infections." Gem over at Startled Disbelief has to best summary of this super villain:
The Sperminator is "a flying burly white guy in a Speedo and Mexican wrestling mask, with two giant penises for arms."…The Sperminator spews STI-infected sperm onto your character, causing your character to utter phrases such as "Eww, that's sticky!" or "Aagh, right in the face!"
While I still feel a bit confused after playing the game, I think Gem has a good point:
"That said, this isn't really a game. It's a true-or-false sex-ed exam with a really bizarre hook. I'm sure that's the point: the designers want it to be so over-the-top ridiculous that people are clamouring to play it even though it's a terrible game—and in playing it, these people might actually learn something. As terrible as the game is, I'm convinced that it will likely accomplish its goal."
The only thing the worries me is the way they portray the Sperminator. I know it's a silly game, but should we really be labeling people with STI's as evil, horrible people who are purposefully going around trying to infect others? People with incurable STIs are still able to have loving relationships.
Anyway, appropriate advice for Valentine's Day: don't be a fool, wrap your tool. And go play that silly game.

'El Duque' out with arthritis in neck
Mets announce veteran starter to miss as many as five days
By Marty Noble / MLB.com
Hernandez left camp in Port St. Lucie on Thursday morning after experiencing pain in his neck and upper back twice in the previous four days after throwing. The club said Hernandez received a cortisone shot in the area and that he is expected to resume working out once the medication has taken effect after three or four days.
Hernandez was expected to return to camp Friday.
General manager Omar Minaya said the cortisone shot had the desired effect.
"He immediately felt much better," Minaya said.
The diagnosis, Minaya said, "is basically good news," in view of what the problem might have been. He said doctors had ruled out any vertebrae problem in the veteran pitcher, who is listed as 37-years-old in the Mets' publications, but who is widely suspected to be four years older.
Minaya dismissed the notion of age being a factor, saying arthritis "can happen to anybody." He also indicated it can be treated to some degree with massage, and the GM reiterated how quickly Hernandez reacted to the cortisone.
Although the diagnosis wasn't distressing, the very fact that "El Duque" had to leave camp and will miss time plays on the concerns -- mostly spoken in private -- the Mets have about their starting pitching.
Their rotation lacks definition and proven depth even with Hernandez. The arthritis is the kind of development former Mets manager George Bamberger once likened to "stubbing the toe with an in-grown nail," i.e., something that wasn't good to begin with becoming worse.
Before the diagnosis, Minaya said he wasn't concerned about the first hiccup of the club's spring camp, and manager Willie Randolph said "he probably won't miss a beat." Hernandez is an important element in the Mets' plans for the first months of the season. He and Tom Glavine, who is all but certain to be the team's Opening Day starter, have been characterized by Minaya and Randolph as the only rotation certainties, although John Maine warrants a "probable" designation.
It was premature Thursday to assess the Mets without Hernandez. But starting pitching is undeniably the one area in which the Mets are not well-stocked.
MLB.com coverage | Schedule | Ballpark | Tickets
Minaya acknowledged Hernandez experienced discomfort in his neck last season at some point after his move from the Diamondbacks to the Mets in late May. But the GM also said El Duque missed no time because of the discomfort, and that the time Hernandez did miss -- he didn't pitch from Aug. 20-Sept. 3 -- was not related to his neck.
Minaya said the discomfort began "two or three days ago" after Hernandez had thrown, and that the righty threw again before the decision was made to have his neck examined. Three veteran members of the pitching staff said they were unaware of any problem with Hernandez and that they didn't believe he had cut short his throwing.
Hernandez made 29 starts last season, 20 with the Mets. He was to have started the first game in their National League Division Series against the Dodgers, but he tore a muscle in his right calf and never pitched in the postseason.
Hernandez said earlier this week he felt fine, but he was hardly one to speak candidly about his physical condition.
This development came two days after Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins, handicapping the race for the National League East championship, said "Their staff is a little older," when discussing the Mets.
The Mets have Glavine, who turns 41 next month, and Hernandez. Most of the other candidates are younger than 30.

STORRS, Conn., March 13 (UPI) -- The ongoing recession is responsible for a growing skepticism about climate change among Americans concerned about the economy, a political scientist says.
This shift in opinion is related primarily to the public's concern that action to alleviate climate change could further hamper economic recovery, Lyle Scruggs of the University of Connecticut says.
"Many people believe that part of the solution to climate change is suppression of economic activity," an unpopular viewpoint when the economy is bad, Scruggs says. "So it's easier for people to disbelieve in climate change than to accept that it is real but that little should be done about it right now."
A 2008 Gallup poll reported between 60 percent and 65 percent of people agreed with statements of opinion that global warming is imminent, is not exaggerated, and is agreed upon by scientists, Scruggs found, but by 2010 those numbers had dropped to about 50 percent.
The researchers found a strong relationship between jobs and people's prioritization of climate change: when the unemployment rate was 4.5 percent, an average 60 percent of people surveyed said that climate change had already begun happening, but when the jobless rate reached 10 percent that number dropped to about 50 percent.
"That the economy impacts the way people prioritize the problem of climate change is uncontroversial," Scruggs said in a university release Tuesday. "What is more puzzling is why support for basic climate science has declined dramatically during this period."
However, with the economy beginning to bounce back and the unemployment rate shrinking, Scruggs said, belief in global warming has begun to rebound.
"We would expect such a rebound to continue as the economy improves," he said.


text: With Federer scrapping the IMG run Miami from his 2013 schedule as well as not making an appearance in Abu Dhabi (also IMG run) will he ever play another event run by the sports management firm again? Interesting to see that Nadal has also left IMG too, and he has also withdrawnfrom Abu Dhabi with a virus. They are losing big names. Djokovic just signed but what is going on with that organisation? And do you think Federer skipped Miami because IMG opposed Indian Wells prize money? Maybe he is trying to use his authority to make sure the ATP and IMG don't work against lesser ranked players for their own interests?

Aaaaggghhh! I spent an hour and a half tonight trying to get the tension correct on my Singer 301. I have only had the machine a couple of months. Once I got it, I cleaned, and oiled the machine. At that time I partially disassembled the tension mechanism because the tension seemed to be much too tight - even with the tension dialed all the way down to zero. However, last week I pieced a border for one of my quilts on itl using a cotton 50 weight thread.
Tonight I put on a rayon 40 weight thread (top and bobbin). I adjusted the top and bottom tension using a quilting cotton test cloth. I then proceeded to sew on my project. I am attempting to put a zipper in a lightweight corduroy pillow cover.
In order to do this I need to use regular stitch length and basting stitch length. In addition I would use the reverse. It seemed that every time I changed the stitch length the tension would go wonky. Sometimes I would have loops on the back. Then loops on the front. Next (after more adjustments) the bobbin thread would lay flat. Even when the stitch 'looked' ok, if I tugged on the bobbin thread it would pull out of the cloth.
I am so disappointed. I really wanted to use this machine for this project. Anyone have any suggestions?
Early on in this process, I also had trouble winding the bobbin. I finally had to place the spool of thread on an standalone thread stand - to prevent the thread from wrapping around the spool pin. (The spool is cross wound).
I may take it to a sewing machine repair person tomorrow. Of course that means I will be without it for a week or two.

I don't think Ian had posted all his pictures before we started getting FDF comments. That's why Med Wet will be supplying a variety of coolants compliant with the BMW specifications to meet the needs of our customers. Have to give those - 'best coolant' thread - participants and readers something to talk about.
Pass the mustard and UP THE REVOLUTION!
Wow. Interesting bike on a lot of levels. From a mechanical engineering standpoint, I like it. From an aesthetic standpoint, well...
Don't get me wrong here, I've always been one of those freaks who LIKE the looks of GSes; hell, I even think the previous incarnations of R1200GS were downright SEXY. I even loved the beak!
But the beak on this one looks like some sort of mean, ill-intended insect proboscis, and the black butresses on either side of the headlight rather exacerbate the effect, as do those two jutting protrusions on either side of the tank. That exhaust-can is major fugly too; BMW must be in collusion with the aftermarket exhaust manufacturers. Other than those points, it's OK. And I'm sure that it will be a HOOT'N A HALF to ride!
I wait with bated breath on pricing info too. I was bike-shopping recently and apparently there's been no recession at BMW!
EDIT: and Kudos to BMW for not ratcheting up the displacement. The constant u-spiraling of motorbike engine sizes has been getting almost ridiculous lately.
"If you can't fix it with a hammer, it's electrical." -somebody's dad
" the secondary drive now runs via the well-established cardan shaft"
Is this a good thing?
What did it run before if it's well established?
I like the orange coolant since it reminds me of a creamsicle.
I hope BMW has a winner here, but I'm going to wait and see.
It will be very interesting to see how the new GS model turns out. There are soooooo many changes. I'm not so sure I would experiment with water cooling and all the other changes on my best selling model when the current version is so popular. I would have made a second version of the R1200R and watercooled it with a few extra horses and experiment with it for a few years.
And the price????
Even now people freak out when they are a little low on oil on a road trip. Think how freaked they'll be in the middle of nowhere and they spring a water leak. BMW should issue some surplus military shovels with the model so when the water leaks out, you can start digging. Will Perrier work?
This is similar to what they said about Ford when they decided to go with the Ecoboost V6 engine in their best selling F-150. People said a V6 couldn't take the loads and that pick-up owners would not buy it over the traditional V8. The engine has proven to be very reliable and they can't keep up with demand for the engine. I think 40%+ of the F-150s sold are sold with the Ecoboost.
Regarding water leaks. From what I understand, they are replacing the oil cooling with water cooling. Why would water be more likely to leak than oil? Water leaks have not been an issue with ATVs that converted from air to water cooling several years ago (and they are abused far worse than the GS)? Water leaks have not been a problem on cars, trucks, jeeps, tractors, etc. that have been water cooled for over a century.
I have and have had John Deere lawn equipment. 3 were air cooled and two were water cooled (Kawasaki). The air cooled engines used a little oil over the summer but neither of the water cooled engines used any oil the entire summer. Water cooling allows closer tolerances because the heat range is not as great.

I know some people use gate level simulation with back-annotated timing to check timing as well. in that case, simulating in parts in not good idea. but if proper static timing analysis is done, you shouldn't have to use back-annotation. so there are ways to solve a problem other than throwing hardware at it. // zao

6 Lovely Lanterns for Less
When Tamar Schechner moved to Shelburne, VT, with her husband and three sons in 2006, she had a mission: Infuse their unremarkable house with energy—as cheaply as possible. "I didn't have a job, so I had to do everything on a shoestring," she says. Knowing color is the quickest way to liven up a room, Tamar painted, sewed and bargain-shopped her way to the perfect mix.
1. In a room with three white walls, for example, an as-bold-as-it-gets accent wall turns into a dramatic focal point. Tamar plucked this berry hue from the pattern in her area rug. Keep clicking for more colorful DIY ideas.

Many would snort with derision and say "Defender, of course". But if you ever find yourself at a serious offroading venue, seek out that quiet Jack Palance lookalike who (it turns out) was a member of the original Darien Gap LR team. His answer to the question may surprise you. For such leathery types, the Range Rover will always be the beast of choice, simply because it was designed to take all the aggro out of off-roading.
Sucking ruminatively on the PH meerschaum, we're deducing that black would never be a colour chosen by farmers, so we're going to ignore that '89 Mercedes CE Garlick wanted and plump instead for this denizen of the not-dirt.
Yes, the upper corners of the body are a bit frilly, but that gives it a certain rough charm. Yes, it's got a lot of miles, but that should mean all the bits that fail or wear out will have already been replaced (sucking hard now).
Ownership of this black beauty will allow you to shuffle absently into the pub in your battered tweed jacket and pre-soiled wellies and pretend you're landed gentry, the old money sort who would never waste cash on the latest RangeRover as that's clearly aimed at soccer players and flashy city types. You can live this life for a thousand pounds.

INDIO>> Alejandro Rose-Garcia, also known as Shakey Graves, performed on the Palomino Stage Friday at the Stagecoach Country Music Festival. A one-man band, Rose-Garcia simultaneously played electric guitar, synthesizer and a kick drum during his performance, and invited his friends "Baby D" and "Mr. Boo" to play slide guitar and drums on some songs.
Rose-Garcia is also a well-known actor, with roles in "Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over" and "Friday Night Lights," although he was barely recognizable as he had grown a thick beard for Stagecoach.
Playing songs such as "Bully's Lament," "Proper Fence," and "Late July," the Austin native Rose-Garcia had the audience cheering. The crowd grew as he continued with his set, clapping and cheering after each song.
Even when the wind knocked over a microphone during "Daisy Chains," Rose-Garcia laughed, paused until it was righted, and then continued with his performance. He later donned a pair of sunglasses to block out some of the debris and dust that was flying around in the tent.
His performance was so successful that the audience demanded an encore. He returned to the stage with "Roll the Bones."

Nikki Reed Has Rainbow Brite Sneaks
Just Jared Junior has pics of Nikki waiting for her mom Cheryl to help her inside a house in Los Angeles on Wednesday afternoon (April 1), and of her outing to Lala's Argentinian Grill with her mom and friend Kate.

thats funny I think Kristen wore those sneakers for her Nylon photo shoot...I like those shoes I want some hahaReplyDelete
I have the Nylon mag and in it they say that Kristen took those shoes with her after she was done the shoot..ReplyDelete
I think that she is lesbianReplyDelete
I just vomited. I was gonna say, she's copying Kristin's style now. Sudennly she's into classic rock, 80's tennis shoes, vintage t-shirts, skinny jeans, vintage ray bans... I could go on. She totally changed her style identical to Kristin's. SWF! And if thats not enough how are those pics the same day of her getting into Rob's BMW driver's side alone? Nikki has been known to use people in Hollywood to further her STAR. Some people call her a "fame whore". I think its sad she cant find her own clothes, style, musical taste, man crushes or cars to drive. Its creepy and hopefully, now that we are seeing more gossip regarding her hookups with R, he will see through that transparent girl and not stick around long. And SUMMIT!! PLEASE RECAST THAT GIRL! She had a TINY role in the first flick and she is nothing like Rosalie in Twilight!ReplyDelete
I think people hate on Nikki too much. Shes gorgeous, has great style, and a good career! She gets less attention than almost anyone else in Twilight so I don't see where you get famewhore?ReplyDelete
Yeah, I just noticed that they're like Kristens from Nylon too:ReplyDelete

An Ongoing Redesign
By Jason Eiseman
In January 2011, the Yale Law School Lillian Goldman Library began redesigning its website. Hopefully, it will never be finished.
Information Gathering
Before changing our website design, we made "data gathering" an integral part of our planning process. We used a three-pronged approach to data gathering. In our annual student survey, we asked questions about the website; used Google Analytics, our website analytics tool, to gather website use statistics; and used formal usability testing. None of these tools alone provided a complete picture of website use, but taken together we better understood the strengths, weaknesses, and practical usability of our website.
As an example of how this worked, in the student survey completed in March 2011 students complained of confusing orientation, too many clicks required to access what they need, and pages not being user-friendly. Some students mentioned an inability to renew checked-out items despite a drop-down list on our home page clearly marked "Renewal/Request Forms." Google Analytics confirmed not many users were clicking "Renewal/Request Forms." During usability testing, several students were unable to locate this item on the front page even as they moved their mouse over the drop-down list and the text "Renewal/Request Forms."
Why was this the case? We researched usability literature to add context to our own results. Steve Krug's books on web usability and usability testing, Rocket surgery made easy: the do-it-yourself guide to finding and fixing usability problems and Don't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability, provide essential step-by-step information for both running your own usability tests and interpreting the results. (See Recommended Reading for additional resources). Some usability experts said users may not consider using a drop-down list when they aren't sure what to expect from the list. We suspect this was true in our case—that the list was being used for navigation instead of as part of a form element (such as when selecting a state in an address web form).
To fix this problem, we created a "My Library" section of the library home page. This section contains links to personalized sections of our ILS where users can renew items rather than using a drop-down list.
Early results from Google Analytics suggest we have been successful. The link to access the patron account and renew items has been the second-most-clicked link on our website since the start of the 2011 fall semester. Hopefully, the 2012 student survey and additional usability testing will confirm the improvement.
We created a crude mock-up or wireframe of changes we wanted to make based on our testing and analysis. We ran usability tests on the wireframes when we tested our existing site. We also shared wireframes with all library staff for comments. The wireframes were turned into a live development site so the staff could interact with the site and see how it works.
Finally, a graphic designer created a design based on the wireframes and development site. The graphic designer modified styles to closely align with the Yale Law School styles. She also helped us use color and style to create a clearer visual hierarchy for better usability.
Major Changes
We implemented several major changes that we hoped would improve the website's usability.
First, we turned existing website graphics into navigational content. We have always featured pictures on our website, but for the new home page we took those images and turned them into a rotating image slideshow with a related description and link to more information. This slideshow could be used to highlight content, such as our videos and rare book exhibits.
Next, we tried to bring important links which had been hidden in drop-down lists and deeper navigation to the home page. We chunked these important links into four major categories: Find, My Library, Research, and Visit. We discussed additional categories for highlighting these links (Explore, Borrow, etc.) and may experiment with those categories in the future.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, we ensured that every aspect of the home page could be easily changed and updated by all librarians and staff.
We Are All Webmasters
As part of our website redesign, we moved our entire website to the open-source Drupal platform. This content-management system allowed us to reuse staff content at various parts of the site, including the home page.
Staff blog posts and events automatically get sent to the home page. Staff can update their own entries in the staff directory, library policy pages, and even site-wide contact forms. Staff also can change any home page text based on changes in their own departments and services. Anyone in the library can change the home page slideshow.
"Don't worry about breaking anything," we announced. It was important that everyone in the library have a sense of ownership of the website and feel comfortable updating content.
Future Development
Over the next year we will be working on an improved mobile version of the site. Rather than a separate mobile website, we hope to use CSS Media Queries to automatically adjust the site based on the size of the screen viewing the site. This way, all versions of the site will run off the same underlying database and content.
Additional features may include personalized displays based on visitor roles (student, faculty, staff), improved searching, and integration with other sites, such as our library catalog.
Throughout all feature implementations, work on the site will be iterative. Improvements will be made, tested, and improved again. Changes must be significant enough that users see the improvement in our website but not so significant that there is no continuity from one visit to the next. It will be a delicate balance.
Even today, a close examination of the site will find some errors and poor usability. However, we now have a process to find problems and make improvements. Then we can test and improve again. Thus, our redesign continues.

It's Rhododendron macrophyllum. Common in damp coniferous forests west of the Cascades in the Pacific NW (Wash, Oreg, and northern Calif), where it is considered a weed by loggers, but occurring only in a few places in BC and those not far north of the US-Canada border.

*sigh* It's probably my favorite native flower. I feel dirty mixing non-natives in to get them to grow, but…
great1american1satan says
Yo! Just got back from the talk. It was the first time I've ever been to an atheist gathering of any sort. Pretty cool.
My response: The topic – "Moving Atheism Beyond Science" – was a very good choice. I've often and extensively discussed with my partner why he isn't as inspired by science as I am, and the current place we've reached in that ongoing issue is this: People mistreated by the dominant culture can get so wrapped up in bad self-esteem and self-monitoring that they have a great deal of difficulty connecting emotionally with things beyond their own lives. This is probably felt the most acutely by those raised as women. It doesn't indicate a paucity of imagination or intelligence – just a change in the scope of things which can fire one's interest. Where I'd be building the tree of life in my imagination, with all the attendant wonder, he'd be thinking about dimensions of social issues that I'd never be able to see without someone opening my eyes to them.
In short, some people can't feel the wonder of science, at least not the way we can, and shouldn't feel excluded from atheism over that. As it stands, they often do. Good of you to try to move the discussion on that.
You were right that Seattle Atheists really look like they're doing a good job pushing for diversity and proactive values, by the look of the folks and tenor of the crowd. Of course, they were a bit pastier than Seattle as a whole and Seattle is a pretty pasty place, but it's a work in progress.
You have a weak spot in your inclusivity where gender is concerned, which I know is a difficult thing to change because it is bound up in language, so take this as a polite suggestion. You used "men and women" at one point to mean "every gender," which leaves some people out. "People of every gender" is a bit better, but you can maybe try to find something more inclusive that you still feel comfortable saying, just as a starting point.
The "liberal arts major" in the Q&A session mentioned cis straight white males as not including theirself, which suggests the possibility they are trans*gendered (if I'm getting all that right). Therefore, when you later referred to them using "her" and "she" when talking to someone else, it may have been offensive to them. Again, to avoid hurt or exclusion, try to think about changing your language. It's impossible to be perfect, but I'm sure you can give it a good effort.
And the hardest thing when dealing with the subject of the intense irrationality of religion is avoid ableist slurs regarding mental health, so that's something else to consider.
It was cool to see you in person. Good work, as always. Rock on!

After rereading the Pensieve scene of the sentencing, I have to say that I really think she knew he was guilty. They had already had the trial and this was only the sentencing. Crouch, Sr. states that they had already heard the evidence against them and they had been found guilty. The way Mrs. Crouch reacts just doesn't strike me as someone who believes an injustice is being done to her child. If she believed he had been falsely convicted, I think she would have been very angry with her husband. At the very least, the fact that she is there, sitting beside her husband who is the one passing down the sentence on their child, indicates to me that she knows Barty Jr is guilty. Otherwise, I think she would have rejected everything about the sentencing, including her husband. But sitting there, rocking back and forth whimpering is more the behavior of someone who realizes the situation is hopeless. I really think she knew he was guilty.
That being said, even if I did think she thought he was innocent, I don't know if I would change my opinion on her Slytherin traits. I might lean a little more towards Gryffindor, because then things would be a little more on the chivalrous side, (defending the innocent), but I would still see the Slytherin in her, too. Her actions were still more devious and calculating than bold and daring. I just see a Gryffindor standing up and shouting out their belief in the innocence, sort of "Don't worry, Son, I'll save you. I'll prove you are innocent!" rather than sitting by while he was dragged off and then sneaking in and breaking him out only to have him hidden away, imprisoned in their own home all those years.
So my money is still on her being a Slytherin.
You know, I think the Crouch side story is one of the saddest, most heartbreaking parts of the series.

Authorities cited Suzanne Johnson, 49, of Pleasant Plains with the misdemeanor last month after Searcy School District officials learned she didn't have a nursing license. She failed to show for a Thursday court appearance.
Johnson, also known as Suzanne Pitts, worked at Sidney Deener Elementary for five years, treating sick children. She was arrested July 10 and bonded out the same day.
A Searcy district judge doubled her bond to $1,000 and ordered her arrest.
The Daily Citizen reported a school district attorney at the hearing said the district will do all it can to help with Johnson's prosecution.

Wedge plans to maintain closer by committee
By Jacob Thorpe / MLB.com
SEATTLE -- Mariners skipper Eric Wedge said the Mariners will continue with a committee approach while the closer situation sorts itself out. Seattle has asked different relievers to save games while former closer Tom Wilhelmsen works through his recent struggles.
The normally dependable Wilhelmsen has allowed a baserunner in his past eight appearances and has a 12.00 ERA in 10 games since May 29. Wilhelmsen was seventh in the American League with 29 saves a year ago, despite not taking over the closer role until June.
"There can't be any clarity right now, because there's no clear-cut closer and we've got a couple guys struggling, trying to find it," Wedge said. "So you mix and match as best you can. That's what happens when you lose your closer, you pull everybody else out of their roles."
Amid Wilhelmsen's struggles, the Mariners have tried Yoervis Medina and Oliver Perez in the ninth. Wedge says that practice will continue as the Mariners start an eight-game homestand.
"It's just part of it," Wedge said. "They've got to handle it, they've got to come together. Opportunities are going to be given like they have been, and it's an opportunity to step up."
Top prospect Walker earns promotion to Triple-A
SEATTLE -- It was only a matter of time before the Mariners let top prospect Taijuan Walker try his stuff at the Triple-A level. Seattle made the call Friday, promoting the right-hander from Double-A Jackson to Triple-A Tacoma, where he will start Tuesday.
Walker has been showing that he's ready for the promotion for some time, boasting a 2.46 ERA in 84 innings for Jackson. His 96 strikeouts were the second-most among all Double-A pitchers, and his 1.05 WHIP was ninth-best. In his final start, the 20-year old struck out a career-high 12 batters in 6 2/3 innings.
Walker has been regarded as one of the Mariners' best pitching prospects since they selected him 43rd overall in the 2010 First-Year Player Draft.
He is the fifth-ranked prospect in all of baseball, according to MLB.com.
Mariners Draft picks take BP at Safeco Field
SEATTLE -- A couple of new Mariners signees were on hand at Safeco Field to take batting practice before Tuesday night's game against Oakland. Second-round pick Austin Wilson and 13th-rounder Lachlan Fontaine each hit a few pitches into the stands while wearing personalized Mariners jerseys in front of family, friends and reporters.
"It's awesome, to get on a big league field," Wilson said. "You watch guys play on TV here, the opportunity to play out here and hit. It gives you motivation and incentive to go out in the minors and work hard, and hopefully some day I can work out here and play here."
Wilson, an outfielder out of Stanford, impressed onlookers with his power, hitting a number of balls deep over the left-field fence. The 21-year-old Wilson led Stanford with a .288 batting average, along with five home runs. Fontaine is a third baseman from Canada, who was named the No.1 Top Prospect at the prestigious Perfect Game camp in Arizona.
Wilson said he was very excited to be drafted by the Mariners and that he was already familiar with the organization.
"A lot of the young prospects that I follow, I mean, I've seen [pitching prospect] Taijuan Walker play in high school, I watched [Mariners catcher Mike] Zunino play, I got to play against him in Cape Cod," Wilson said. "It's an honor to play out here, and I watched [Mariners All-Star Ken] Griffey growing up, so it's almost surreal to be out here and I was very excited the Mariners picked me up."
Worth noting
• The Mariners blew only two saves in the first 44 games of the season, but they've blown eight since May 20.
• Kyle Seager's four-hit game Thursday night was the Mariners' first in 74-games. Seattle was the only team without a player recording a four-hit game this season before Seager accomplished the feat.
