How Do You Know It's Any Good?
On Quality in Art: Criteria of Excellence Past and Present (The A. W. Mellon Lectures in the Fine Arts, 1964)
A good race horse, one supposes, is one that wins races, a good chess player one who can beat his opponents; we can tell a good watchmaker by his skill in making or repairing watches which accurately show the time, and a good linguist by his testable mastery of foreign languages. But how can we tell what is a good work of art or who is a great artist? The question does not only arise in the auction room where genuine or sometimes spurious masterpieces change hands at astronomical prices. Every year countless art students in all civilized countries are admitted or rejected by art schools and colleges, receive degrees of varying grades or prizes for the best work; later they submit their productions to owners of galleries, to critics, and to the public on whose evaluation of their efforts they will depend for their livelihood. By what criteria are they judged? Is it all a matter of fashion and pretense? If it is not, why is there so much disagreement among critics, and, if it is, how can we explain the fact that hard-headed businessmen "invest" in works of art?
Many specialists have preferred to withdraw behind a smokescreen of esoteric jargon at the approach of such philistine questions, but in the book under review Professor Jakob Rosenberg has had the courage to come out into the open and to attempt an answer in plain language. He has devoted his Mellon Lectures in the Fine Arts of 1964 to what he calls "Quality in Art." The title, perhaps, bears traces of the author's background and professional origins. In German we speak of Qualitätsgefühl (a feeling for quality) as a first prerequisite of the Museum man and the connoisseur. Professor Rosenberg has long acquired a reputation in both these fields. He belonged to the great team of specialists who looked after the famous print room of the Berlin Museum, and after emigrating to the United States he continued his distinguished career at the Fogg Museum of Harvard University both as curator of prints and as a teacher. He has never been content merely to practice the intuitive skills of the discriminating collector but has regarded it as his task to pass on his insights to the next generation, and not to specialists only. For many years he gave courses at Harvard in which he tried to open the eyes of his students to the subtle beauties of prints and drawings, and he succeeded, by all accounts, in communicating his love and appreciation to many young people whose lives he has thus permanently enriched.
THE METHOD employed in this book goes far to explain his success. For the main body consists of thirty-six pairs of well-chosen comparisons between individual works of art, mostly drawings, which differ appreciably in artistic quality. Comparisons are routine in courses in art appreciation, but what distinguishes Professor Rosenberg's juxtapositions…

text: Rent Smart Wales Landlords and agents of private residential property in Wales are required by law to be registered or licenced, along with their portfolio of property. This follows the introduction in November 2015 of the Welsh Government's Rent Smart Wales scheme, the first of its kind in the UK. Under the Scheme, landlords and agents will have up to one year to comply with their new legal obligations, without fear of legal action being taken against them by local authorities and the licensing authority, City of Cardiff Council. The registration and licensing process can be completed either online at www.rentsmart.gov.wales or over the telephone, contact 03000 133344. The Scheme will require landlords to: pass a 'fit and proper person' check undertake approved training pay a registration / licensing fee (see website for fee structure) Alternatively, landlords will be able to appoint a licensed agent to manage the property on their behalf, but will remain involved with the process. The Scheme will also: prevent rogue landlords and agents from letting and managing properties in Wales raise awareness by landlords, agents and tenants of their respective rights and responsibilities allow councils for the first time to fully identify all of the private rented properties within their local area, making it easier for them to work closely with landlords on ensuring high rental standards are being met replace the existing voluntary Landlord Accreditation Wales scheme, with those members accredited under it transferring over to the new system "Wales really is setting the standard with Rent Smart Wales, which will professionalise the private rented sector - an increasingly important housing option for many people." Cllr Bob Derbyshire, City of Cardiff Council Cabinet Member for Environment "This new scheme (Rent Smart Wales) is a welcome addition to the enforcement options already available, and we hope it will help local councils work more closely with landlords and lettings agents to improve services for tenants in the private rented sector in Wales." Cllr Dyfed Edwards (Gwynedd), WLGA spokesperson for housing "By supporting and educating landlords and agents for the benefit of tenants, Rent Smart Wales aims to improve the practices of landlords and agents and help to tackle the bad landlords who give the sector a poor reputation."

This spring, a certain style of skirt has grabbed our collective attention- the maxi.
Equal parts laid-back and feminine, the maxi is easy to wear on the weekend with a wrist full of bangles or the morning school/coffee run with strappy (but appropriately and sensibly flat) sandals.
The maxi can also take you out somewhere just a little bit fancy (and yes, we mean even more fancy than Maccas for the more expensive burger range) with a simple shoe change.
No matter what you do with it, a fitted pencil skirt WILL make you look the business nine-to-five but pulling on a relaxed, floor-sweeping skirt: pays off in the fashion appeal, comfort and versatility stakes.
Better yet, this trend is one that refuses to date. Bless it. They'll be looking back on us from their new-fangled hovercrafts in the year 2100 and thinking "Gosh, they just got it RIGHT in 2012 didn't they? The look was so classic. So timeless."
So you're keen to try this trend out for yourself, are we right? OK. Here is how fashion's A-list is styling their maxi skirts and maxi dresses and a few easy ways to DIY:
Now that you're feeling fashion inspired, here are four tips to keep in mind when shopping for longer hemlines:
1. Consider your height: I'll let you in on a short girl's secret: too-long hemlines will only make you look shorter. Maxi skirts and dresses should just graze the top of your ankles – any longer and said skirt will feel less like a fashionable clothing choice and more like a safety hazard.
2. Cheat your waist: When wearing maxi dresses, nip in your waist at its narrowest point by buckling up a belt just under your rib-cage. This will ensure your frame isn't overwhelmed by a loose-fitting maxi and helps to highlight hourglass silhouettes while creating the illusion of longer legs.
3. Avoid the cling: Skip suffering in multiple pairs of spanx all throughout summer and look for loose shapes and airy fabrics – they go hand-in-hand. The fabric you choose should sweep over your skin. Look for skirts and dresses made from cotton, rayon crepe or silk chiffon.
4. Try a leg split: REALLY! Opt for a single or double leg split, and as long as the skirt is loosely-fitted and cut from a light fabric (see tip #4), you won't look anything like Angelina Jolie's awkward pose at the 2012 Oscars.
Want to try a maxi skirt or maxi dress out for yourself? Click here to shop the trend on Mamamia Shoppping.
What what's your verdict on the maxi skirt – will you be wearing it for summer?

If you're applying the Law incorrectly, you won't see the results you're desiring to manifest.
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) January 31, 2013
Positive thought leader and world-renowned Law of Attraction master teacher Bob Proctor wants to alleviate the frustration others may feel when it comes to applying the Law of Attraction in their lives.
"There are many well-intended people in the industry, but unfortunately, they do not fully understand the Law of Attraction," shares Proctor in announcing the release of his new book on his website.
"Without even realizing it, they teach you only one small part of the truth, but they make it sound like the whole truth. The unfortunate side effect of this is that when students from these teachers find little success, they turn away as disbelievers to the Law."
Natalie Ledwell, Law of Attraction teacher and co-founder of Mind Movies, agrees with Proctor. "The Law of Attraction works. I've experienced it in my own life and I've seen it work in the lives of others time and time again," shares Ledwell. "But if you're applying the Law incorrectly, you won't see the results you're desiring to manifest."
In his new digital book, "11 Forgotten Laws," Proctor reveals for the first time the little-known secrets he believes will help others unlock the true power of the Law of Attraction.
Using the secrets inside his new book, Proctor shares that others will now be able to attract more financial abundance, health, love, happiness and fulfillment into their lives on autopilot and with velocity.
Over 1 million people worldwide have already received Law of Attraction guru Natalie Ledwell's free pre-made Mind Movies, which are dynamic moving video vision boards that help viewers visualize and achieve their desires and goals faster and easier than they ever thought possible.

I was interviewed by John Conroy of CMSWire. It turned out slightly more technical and visionary than previous interviews.
CMSWire interview
Great interview sorry I just got around to reading it. Dries how does someone get to do an interview with you? I just launched my own Drupal Tutorial site that isn't very big yet but reading your interview makes me wonder as time goes on, and maybe I gain more popularity in the Drupal sphere, if it would be possible to do an interview with you. Just curios - I'm guessing its probably a long shot. It would be geared more towards the beginning Drupal user. Someone who is just walking of the street maybe has little to no programming background and wants to set up a Drupal site. I would pick your brain on what should be learned first, how they should set things up, what modules you recommend for the beginner, etc. Have you done an interview like this somewhere else already?

Interested in Traveling to Cuba?
This is a beautiful Caribbean Island that has been off-limites to Americans for decades. But that is changing. Below are some related artices about the developments here.
If you have a group or are interested in travel to Cuba, by all means give us a call at 877-404-4228 or send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Here are some frequently asked questions since the announcement of changes in U.S. Cuba travel policy on March 15, 2016:
Q: Is the embargo lifted? A: No
Q: Can Americans travel freely to Cuba now?
A: No, Americans must still comply with U.S. government restrictions on travel to Cuba.
Q: What are the changes announced March 15, 2016?
A: The new change allows individuals to travel to Cuba under the People-to-People provision, where previously, under the People-to-People provision, only group travel was allowed.
Q: What rules still apply?
A: All American travelers to Cuba are still required to have a structured itinerary, which includes 8 hours of "meaningful interaction" with Cubans each day. While "meaningful interaction" is rather vague, we can assure you it does not cover lying on the beach or chatting up the bartender over rum cocktails.
Q: Are U.S. airlines fl ying to Cuba?
A: At the moment no, although several have applied and are awaiting approval. Approval is needed separately from the U.S. government and the Cuban government. We don't expect the Cuban government to move quickly on this.
Q: Can Americans book air and hotels only?
A: No, the Cuban government requires American visitors to have transportation and a guide for their full stay booked through a tour company, otherwise, they will not accept hotel bookings.
Q: What about home-stays?
A: Home stays are allowed but must be booked through a tour company.
Q: How will the recent change effect prices?
A: The prices are already increasing because demand has increased and Cuban infrastructure remains insuffi cient.
Q: Is it true that Cuba hotel availabilty is very limited?
A: Yes, most 4 and 5-star hotels are in "stop-sale" status for most of the remaining 2016 and even into 2017.

NEW YORK—New York City-based Hudson Realty Capital L.L.C. has provided a $12.5 million bridge loan for a 689,000-sq.-ft. industrial building located in Arbutus, Md.
"Like many owners of Class-B and Class-C assets in the nation's middle markets, this sponsor needed a competitively priced, non-recourse bridge loan to stabilize the property for the longer term," said Geoffrey Smith, one of Hudson's managing directors. "Hudson is helping fill the lending void in primary and secondary markets for storied properties that are poised for a rebound and sustained growth."
Totaling 34 acres, the Baltimore County industrial site features 26-ft. to 32-ft. clear heights, 50-ft. column spacing, 26 cranes, including one 10-ton crane bay, and 12 drive-through doors. In addition to covered rail service, the property also offers access to the Port of Baltimore.
Located south of Baltimore, the property is in close proximity to I-95 and includes tenants in manufacturing, logistics and wholesale businesses.

This year, I wanted to make something myself to decorate for the holiday season. I love all the printables that are available everywhere. Some are free and some you have to pay for but get to download instantly. And the possibilities are absolutely endless. Just look at what comes up when you search "Christmas printables" on Etsy.com:
That's 250 pages worth of printables related to Christmas! Wow, a girl could go nuts!
Instead, I decided to try my hand at making my own printables using lyrics from some of my favorite Christmas songs. I chose to make them apple green and white so that I can use them either in my living room or my kitchen/dining room area. Here they are:
Nothing too fancy, but in a large white, grey or black matted frame, it looks stunning.
Here they are individually in case you want to download them for your own holiday decor.
And for the heck of it, I also made them in turquoise, red and pink. Go to the printables page on my business website to print them all!
I just love decorating for the Christmas season, don't you?

On Monday Jason Mercier won his 4th World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet in Event #16: $10,000 2-7 Lowball Draw Championship, and I wrote about what it meant for his side bets. Now, in the blink of an eye, he's looking like he has a strong chance of making it five. Only eight players remain in Event #20: $10,000 Razz Championship, and Mercier has a substantial lead on the pack with nearly a third of the chips in play.
This is almost unbelievably terrible news for Vanessa Selbst, who stands to lose an eye-watering $1.8 million if Mercier manages to pick up three bracelets over the course of the summer. That's not an unheard-of feat, but it is a rare one. Only two people have managed it in the modern, post-Hold'em boom WSOP with its large field sizes: Jeff Lisandro in 2009, and George Danzer in 2014. Selbst accepted a $10,000 bet from Mercier at 180-1 odds, just two days after she'd made a similar bet at 200-1 odds with Dzmitry Urbanovich.
The bet with Urbanovich was widely publicized because it was made in the presence of members of the media, but although the second bet with Mercier was known to members of the pro community, it had mostly flown beneath the public's radar until Mercier won his first of the summer. Selbst says alcohol was a factor in both bets and that she began regretting both soon after they'd been made.
She's made no attempt to get out of her bet with Urbanovich, however, yet has made two offers to Mercier to annul theirs. The morning after the bet was made, she offered him $1000 (plus his $10,000 stake) to back out, which he refused. After his win in Event #16, she offered him a $100,000 buy out, which he likewise refused.
Fans of Mercier, including his girlfriend and fellow poker player Natasha Barbour, have been critical of Selbst for creating "drama" about the bet only once it started to look more likely that Mercier could win it. Selbst has explained that it was known that she regretted her bet with Urbanovich, and that a sober Mercier took advantage of her in an "almost blackout drunk state" to rope her into a similar bet with him. She feels that the circumstances of the bet are such that Mercier should have accepted her buyout offers out of compassion and friendship.
@olivierbusquet @VanessaSelbst why wait till he wins one for the whole drama speech?
— Natasha Barbour (@natashabarbour) June 15, 2016
To be fair to Selbst, the only public reference she initially made to the bet was a joke about therapeutically favoriting Mercier's bustout tweets. It was Mercier who first went public about the bet, talking about it with Remko Rinkema on his podcast for PokerNews. Selbst's disclosure of the circumstances of and her feelings about the bet came only once she found herself being trolled and criticized for it on social media. As for why she has pressured Mercier for a buyout but not Urbanovich, she says that in Urbanovich's case, he was as drunk as she was, and is not a close friend like Mercier.
If every1 can stop telling me my stupid bet I made extremely drunk then tried 2 buy out of once sober was extremely stupid, would appreciate
— Vanessa Selbst (@VanessaSelbst) June 14, 2016
Indeed, to anyone who is not a professional poker player themselves, the idea of talking a drunk friend into a bet they wouldn't make sober, then refusing to let them out of it in the morning does seem quite distasteful. But professional gambling is inherently predatory, and Selbst is a predator in that regard herself. If the situation were reversed, would she have let Mercier off the hook easy, or held him to the bet? Hard to know either way, but I definitely wouldn't feel confident in saying she would. Drunk or not, as a professional gambler, I'm sure Selbst knows well the company she keeps, and isn't in the habit of making bets with the expectation that she'll be allowed to change her mind later. Letting people out of huge bets is certainly not the norm in the gambling world, even among friends.
So, although the "nice" thing for Mercier to do would have been to accept Selbst's immediate $1000 buy-out offer, he's within his rights to refuse it, and Selbst really should have known better. "Don't make a bet with a 7-figure downside without at least sleeping on it," is good general life advice even when you're not under the influence, and assuming she really wanted out in the morning, there likely would have been some price at which he'd let her buy out.
Although no one would relish being in Selbst's situation now that Mercier has one bracelet in the bag and another in reach, one interesting aspect of this story is that even fairly knowledgeable people are having a hard time deciding whether it was actually a bad bet to begin with. Evaluating the probabilities involved in long-odds bets is always tricky, as a 1% chance and a 0.1% chance feel similar at the level of human intuition, but give radically different expectation values for a bet like this. Matt Glantz, a friend of Mercier's, thinks the correct odds would be 50-1, while FlushDraw journalist Haley Hintze's impression was that Selbst had the better end of things at 180-1.
@MattGlantz @benefactumgames @Haley_Hintze @Manilapoker11 @Kevmath hahahahaha
— Andrew Barber (@abarber1) June 15, 2016
One easy place to go wrong in looking at the bet from Mercier's side is in assuming that bracelet-winning odds multiply straightforwardly. Your odds of getting dealt a pocket pair in Hold'em are approximately 6%, so your odds of getting two in a row are 6% x 6%, or about 0.35%. It's tempting then, to say that if you estimate that Mercier is 25% to win a bracelet in a given year, that he's 25% x 25% x 25%, or about 1.5% to win three, which would give you 60-1, close to the 50-1 odds suggested by Glantz. I don't know if that's how Glantz did his calculation, or if he just thinks Mercier is much better than 25% to win the first, but if it's the former, he's wrong.
Statistically, the first bracelet won by Mercier should have come about halfway through the series on average (though in reality it came much earlier). That only leaves him half the series, on average, to win the second. So if he's 25% to win one when he has the whole series ahead of him, he's only 12.5% to win a second, given that he's won the first. With two bracelets won, the second will on average be 66.7% of the way through the series, so the third is only 25% x 33.3% = 8.3% to happen once the first two are in the bag.
So, if we estimate that he is in fact 25% to win one (which may or may not be a good guess, but is probably within 10%), his total odds of scoring three are only 25% x 12.5% x 8.3% = 0.25%, or 400-1. If that's the case, then Selbst's bet looks very good indeed. However, it's important to note that these odds are extremely sensitive to small changes in that initial estimate; if you instead set the line at 30% for Mercier to win one, then he's 30% x 15% x 10% = 0.45%, or about 220-1 to win three, and it's much closer. The break-even point for Selbst's bet, using this math, is when we postulate a Mercier who wins one bracelet just over 32% of the time. For Glantz's 50-1, we would need him to win nearly 50% of the time, which seems unlikely.
In Daniel Negreanu's famous 2014 prop bet, he wagered that he and Phil Ivey were better than even money to win at least one bracelet between the two of them. Assuming he considered each of them equally likely, that implies odds of about 30% for either. So, unless we believe Mercier is a significantly better than Negreanu and Ivey, Selbst's bet may have been good on paper.
There are a few problems with this way of thinking, however. Firstly, in estimating a given player's odds of winning a bracelet, it's natural to look at their past performance, but in reality, a player with substantial bracelet bets on the line should in fact win bracelets at a higher rate than their usual expectation. This is because the bets change their effective payouts and therefore their playing strategy, as I discussed in yesterday's article; a player with additional money staked on a first-place finish should win somewhat more often, but show lower in-the-money (ITM) and return-on-investment (ROI) stats, because chip accumulation is more important to them than survival.
Secondly, when the odds are as long as they are, and one party's upside is as large as it is in the Mercier-Selbst bet, the possibility of collusion looms large. If Mercier wins the Razz bracelet tonight, he'll only need one more to book a $1.8 million score, larger than any payout in almost any event left on the schedule. I don't believe Mercier would straight up offer to pay someone to let him win, but it's not hard to imagine that a friend of his, or a friend of Selbst's, could consciously or unconsciously alter their play to make it easier or harder for him to win. As extreme examples, imagine Barbour and Mercier at a final table together, after he has two bracelets in the bag, or conversely Mercier and Selbst herself. The potential for scandal and hard feelings is huge.
Finally, when it comes to extreme cases like this one, we have to consider the emotional factors involved. Theoretically, professional poker players are supposed to be risk-neutral, but no one is truly risk neutral. For players as successful as Mercier and Selbst, $10,000 is essentially "fun stakes," but $1.8 million most definitely is not. Selbst says she felt extreme anxiety in the aftermath of making the bet with Urbanovich and that her bet with Mercier was due to having convinced herself that making a second similar bet would somehow lessen rather than increase the anxiety.
That's about the most degenerate thing I've ever heard, but it illustrates the problem with looking at these bets the same way as ones with more typical odds. Flipping a coin multiple times or playing lots of tournaments does indeed reduce your variance, it's true… but when you're praying to dodge a bullet, trying to dodge two at once is not an improvement. For her sake, I hope this is not a lesson Selbst has to learn the hard way.

Working with Agriculture to Clean Up Wisconsin's Waters
The Nature Conservancy is working with a coalition of farmers, University of Wisconsin scientists and county, state and federal agencies in the Pecatonica River watershed to blend sustainable agriculture with improved water quality in streams.
The partners are showing that you can improve water quality by using science to target conservation efforts on those fields and pastures with the greatest potential for contributing nutrients like phosphorus to streams. The project could help change the way we clean up Wisconsin's waters.
Pecatonica Project is Getting Results
22 farmers have made changes to farm practices that are helping improve water quality in the Pecatonica River watershed.
Farmers' Changes Improving Water Quality
Lynn Betts' article in the Wisconsin Agriculturist shows that changes farmers are making in the Pecatonica River watershed are resulting in cleaner water in streams.

Craig Bellamy, now free from injuries, faces his former club as City look to return to winning ways.
Bellamy, who joined City for £14 million from West Ham in January after scoring just seven goals for the club, has already scored three in his last two Premier League games.
Zola said: "I loved working with him because he questioned me a lot. It can be hard because he has a fire inside. But if you approach him in the right way, he gives you a lot back and that has been the case for me because we worked together very well."
West Ham won their opening game of the season but have since taken just one point from four games and, at the weekend, dropped into the relegation zone.
Zola, though, believes he has benefited from working with the Welshman. "He knew I wanted to help him, in order to have him helping me.
"He's someone you have to listen to the second thing he says. The first thing can sometimes be hard but sometimes that's good because he is honest.
"He's not worried about telling somebody they are doing something wrong. Even the manager. He's honest and he's forced by his desire to get better and make the team better."
Zola admitted that the pair had one altercation last season when he added: "I remember the only time we came close to having an argument was after we played at Hull.
"I came back with the team on the coach, I was very unhappy because we played very well and we lost by a mistake. I came in and had a go at the players and then I left.
"And then I found out he had been very hard with some players and so I spoke to him and said, 'look if you're going to have another thing like that with the players, you're going to have a problem'. And he said 'are you threatening to me?' and I said 'no, I'm not threatening you', and we started talking about it and from there we respected each other a lot."
Zola believes City can finish in the top four, adding: "Player wise, Mark Hughes has the players to be one of the top-four teams. The question is how quickly will they pick up as a team and become a team.
"Eleven wonderful individuals doesn't make a strong team, but I know the manager, I trust the manager, he is a good person and he is doing a good job."
West Ham are still without Luis Jimenez, Jack Collison, Dean Ashton and Luis Boa Morte.

Chirpify, an up-and-coming tech company that's attracting attention with an upcoming deal with a large bank, has begun a social commerce campaign for a book about the future of money.
Using Chirpify's social commerce and payment platform, David Wolman, the author of "The End of Money," is selling digital copies of his book for four days on Twitter. The sale started Wednesday.
Chirpify, a Portland, Org.-based online commerce startup, helps move money from buyers to sellers over Twitter and Instagram. To authorize a purchase, a Chirpify user crafts a reply message, like "Buy," while he's in his social network. Chirpify integrates with PayPal.
"The End of Money" costs $5.99.
To date, banks have largely stayed away from financial transactions over social media.
Vantage Credit Union, a Missouri based credit union, offers members the ability to do some of their banking via Twitter. The service, called tweetmymoney, has been available since 2009.
Meanwhile, Citi queried consumers through its official Facebook and Twitter channels in July: If you could do your banking on Facebook—would you?

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Gov. Andrew Cuomo's first budget proposal is drawing mixed reviews, with business groups praising plans to reduce spending while health, education and public employees advocates denounced cuts and layoffs.
'Gov. Andrew Cuomo is proposing a budget that finally addresses the need to reduce government spending and put New York on the road to recovery," said Heather Briccetti, acting-president of The Business Council of New York State.
But Robert Tolbert, a board member of VOCAL New York, a coalition of community activist leaders, said the budget proposal puts too much burden on the poor and too little on the wealthy and corporations.
"By not extending the millionaire's tax, Governor Cuomo is giving up one of the best tools we have to fix our state's long-term revenue crisis," Tolbert said. "Despite the governor's rhetoric of shared sacrifice, this budget protects the Committee to Save New York and the real estate, big bank and big corporate interests they represent."
Cuomo's budget doesn't call for extending a temporary income tax surcharge on New Yorkers making more than $200,000 a year, the so-called "millionaire's tax" that Democrats in the Assembly are pushing to provide billions of dollars more in revenue.
William Van Slyke, spokesman for the Healthcare Association of New York State, says Cuomo's proposed cut to Medicaid is "unprecedented" and will devastate some hospitals. Cuomo's budget identifies a $1 billion cut in Medicaid spending but Van Slyke said the figure will be much higher over two years when the loss of the federal share is included.
"There's a lot of fragile hospitals that just won't be able to take these cuts," he said.
Buffalo Teachers Federation President Philip Rumore predicted larger class sizes and reductions in support services like counseling and math and reading help.
"Education cuts are cuts that don't heal. A student that sits in an oversized class without support services for a year, you can't undo the damage," he said.
Kenneth Brynien, president of the Public Employees Federation, says the budget that could cut nearly 10,000 public sector jobs, would "cripple public services."
Environmental groups found good news in Cuomo's budget proposal. The budget calls for $134 million for the Environmental Protection Fund, the same as in the previous budget.
"We have to consider this a victory," said Neil Woodworth, executive director of the Adirondack Mountain Club. "Under the circumstances, it could have been much worse."
A coalition of environmental groups had requested that the fund be restored to $222 million, the level approved by the Legislature two years ago.

Happy Halloween readers! On this spooky Halloween eve, we have some treats for you to read this Friday before you head out this weekend for some ghoulish events. We are starting off this week with new findings from the Journal of Dentistry that show fillings could do more harm than good. Next up, we have an article from the American Association of Orthodontists that includes some tip and tricks for safe Halloween recipes. Our final article for the week gives three ways to help eliminate staff drama in the dental office. Read up on these trending stories and let us what you think in the comments section below. We would love to hear from you.
Fillings 'could do more harm than good' if technique not right, dentists warn
According to research conducted by the Journal of Dentistry, fillings could do more harm than good. Done poorly, the practice can increase decay and mean more fillings are needed in other teeth. The study found that six out of 10 teeth which were next to a filling had also decayed after five years. Continue reading

Gov. McCrory proclaims February 18-23, 2013 as Financial Aid Awareness Week in North Carolina
Feb 19, 2013, 02:29 EST
RALEIGH, N.C., Feb. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Governor Pat McCrory has proclaimed February 18-23, 2013 as Financial Aid Awareness Week in North Carolina. The proclamation urges N.C. students and families to learn more about the process of applying for financial assistance for college. The week culminates with FAFSA Day on Saturday, February 23rd.
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is used to determine eligibility for most financial aid programs to assist in the cost of higher education.
On FAFSA Day, college financial aid officers and specialists will be available at more than 300 locations across North Carolina to help high school seniors and families complete and submit their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Most FAFSA Day sites will be open between 9:00 a.m. until noon on February 23rd to offer free assistance. Registration is encouraged. To find locations and times and to register for FAFSA Day, go to CFNC.org/fafsaday or call toll-free 1-866-866-CFNC (2362).
Another option for students and parents with a few questions on completing the FAFSA is the FAFSA Phone-In offered every Tuesday night in February. Financial aid specialists will be available to answer specific FAFSA questions on the toll-free number, 1-866-866-CFNC (2362), between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m.
According to the Governor's proclamation, more than 350,000 students in N.C. have applied for financial aid to help pay for college costs and many of our state's leaders, including former governors, judges, civic leaders, educators and other professionals were financial aid recipients. The proclamation points out that those who have benefited from financial aid over the years are now repaying the state through their talents, services and increased tax revenues.
Financial Aid Awareness Week is sponsored by the N.C. Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators. The Association also joins College Foundation of North Carolina (CFNC) and the State Employees' Credit Union to make FAFSA Day available.

A. The Windows Messenger component typically runs as a background process, but it runs as a foreground process while you're communicating with a contact. After you close the foreground application, Windows Messenger continues to run as a background process (so people can initiate contact with you), an icon remains in the notification area, and an information balloon informs you that the program is still running.
If you select the "Click here to not show this reminder again" check box, Windows Messenger won't display the information balloon the next time you close the foreground application. You might want to make this setting the default action (or create a custom policy to do so), in which case you need to know how the registry stores the setting. To modify the registry subkey so that Windows Messenger doesn't notify you that the program is still running, perform the following steps:
- Start a registry editor (e.g., regedit.exe).
- Navigate to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MessengerService subkey.
- Double-click the DSBkgndMode binary value.
- To turn off the Windows Messenger information-balloon notification, set the value to
00 00 00 00
To turn on the Windows Messenger information-balloon notification, set the value to
- Click OK.
- Close the registry editor.
01 00 00 00
The change takes effect immediately.

Hey Friends.. You All know that Google Adsense Is the Biggest Ad Network Over The Internet, And The Biggest Search Engine over The Internet. Now in This Post I am Telling about 6 Question To Google About Google Adsense. Although Google Adsense is a great program for generating online income for bloggers however after using this program for a while I came to conclusion that Googlemust be transparent to its clients as far as remuneration is concerned. We as a publisher want answers from Google about the functioning of Adsense program. I feel Google owes an explanation to all of its clients who are using Adsense. Here are the questions
What is the true CPC value of each click?
My first question to Google would be what is the true cost per click of each Ads. In an official statement Google says that it is 60 to 70 percent of what advertisers are bidding. But the point here is daily we receive hundreds or thousands of clicks, so is there any mechanism to tell us how much each click costs.
Because, in our Adsense account just sum/total of all clicks are shown for a particular channel. Hence we are only able to calculate the average but it is difficult to analyze the value of each single click. If Google is willing to provide this data then it will be easy for a cost-benefit analysis.
How much advertisers bids?
Second question would be is there any way that we publishers (bloggers) can directly get to know what amount actually advertisers are bidding for their ads. Firstly this will give us clear understanding about what advertisers are targeting for and secondly, it will also answer my first question that was about true CPC of each click.
As this can also help us in writing blogs according to the highest bidding ads to generate high income. Therefore transparency from Google's side will win the hearts and minds of bloggers. However for now Google is very reluctant in doing that.
What all are the niches of clicks?
Third question is what the exact niche of an incoming click is. To make it simple we would like to know what all are the niches from which clicks are coming. It means we want to know the category of all those ads from which we receive clicks. This information can help us in creating quality content that is synchronized with ads that pays maximum.
In simple terms we can write according to the niche of the ad which is very hot and popular among the internet users right now. Not just us even Google will benefit from this, as good quality content is the backbone of its search engine.
Regions from which clicks are coming?
Google analytics does give us an insight about the visitors that are coming to a website from all parts of the world. But it never shares any information about the clicks. And it is very crucial for bloggers.
For a common sense maximum clicks will come from where the maximum impression or visits are coming however there is an obvious difference between data and information.
Google feeds us only data not information as information can give you exact knowledge about the region from where most of the clicks are coming so that you can write blogs to suit taste and culture of that particular region.
How many clicks are redundant?
Coming to fifth question, we want to know the number of clicks whose value is zero. The logic behind this question is Google Adsense gives no money for clicks if it happens to be coming from same IP address. Now this can be very erroneous for Google to presume that the clicks coming for one IP address is generated intentionally by someone hence its value should be zero.
Because there is always a possibility that individuals or group of individuals might be using same computer and clicking ads a number of times and which is genuine. Even if Google wants to devalue those clicks then it must provide the number of clicks which had been devalued and regions from which they came.
Does Google control clicks?
Lastly Google owe an explanation to us that does its Adsense program deliberately control the clicks for a particular account. If Google feels that an account is generating high income (genuine) from high paying clicks then Google has an authority to advertently manipulate clicks.
I believe there is lack of transparency that exists on this matter, because Google keeps these things very private and does not want to share with us.
Although to end on a good note we hope Google will listen to us.

Katy Perry accessorizes her Prada gown with Tamagotchi for the Met Gala
Katy Perry has always made her love of Japan known to her legions of fans around the world, most notably through her obsession with all things Hello Kitty. And just yesterday, she was seen walking down the red carpet at the Met Gala in New York City with another Japanese character as an accessory to her Prada gown—Tamagotchi!
The Met Gala, an annual fundraising event in New York City for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute, has become the place to be and be seen. Started in 1948, the Met Gala is about as exclusive an event one can be invited to, having always been attended by the biggest names in society. The event has always been somewhat of a fashion show for celebrities, as they show up wearing their favorite designers and pose for the hundreds of photographers calling out for their attention. Since 1972, the gala has been given a theme, and this year it was Manus x Machina: Fashion In An Age Of Technology.
Among this year's attendees was Katy Perry, who showed up in a custom Prada gown, crazy hair, and a bunch of accessories. What caught the eyes of the few who noticed was a gadget hanging from her belt. Yes, it was none other than Tamagotchi, the virtual Japanese pet created in 1996. As she explained to Vogue, "Well, this is Tamagotchi. It's been my contribution for this year's Met Gala. It's humble, but it's tech." No one can argue with that. It may be 20 years old, but it's tech nonetheless.
On a side note, her boyfriend Orlando Bloom was spotted with a matching Tamagotchi. It took 20 years, but Tamagotchi has made it to the big time. In this business, it really is about who you know.

In many ways 'Pump Up The Volume' is an archetypal one hit wonder.
The creators of the track M/A/R/R/S were a one-off project that was convened in the studio as a collaboration between two bands: Colourbox and AR Kane. They never played live and released just one record in a shroud of functional anonymity – the name of the 'group' M/A/R/R/S was created by taking the initial of each of the members Christian names. 'Pump Up The Volume' was also rewarded with the hallmark of all truly great chart records, it reached number one.
Rather than toasted with raised glasses, the record's commercial achievements merely exacerbated the tensions between AR Kane and Colourbox that had developed during the recording session and led to a breakdown in relations with their record company.
This fractious and mean-spirited atmosphere was further complicated by a seemingly never-ending series of legal problems that were created by the track's success.
'Pump Up The Volume' was the first number one for the band's label 4AD and also for its distribution company Rough Trade. Although all involved found the experience bittersweet at best, it's not hard to hear why the song was so popular.
Created at the moment when sampling was on the cusp of becoming a fundamental creative tool, 'Pump Up The Volume' is the sound of technology at its most vital, new and unconstrained. Propelled by a bass line suggestive of ominous, late night fun, an irresistible drum pattern and coloured by the occasional sustained piano chord, the track is little more than a stream of random samples that, once put through the alchemy of the mixing desk, becomes impossible to ignore. Released without fanfare as a white label in the summer of1987 'Pump Up The Volume' made an immediate connection at clubs and warehouse parties. Although the track was a hit on London dance floors, 4AD anticipated little more than underground recognition once the single was given an official release.
"This was in the early days of white labels' Ivo Watts-Russell funder of 4AD told me 'The accountant asked me for some projections, I remember clear as daylight thinking M/A/R/R/S Pump Up The Volume – ten thousand copies, that's all we'll do on that."
Beyond anyone's expectations 'Pump Up The Volume' would go on to sell over a million copies worldwide. This was an achievement not lost on the new breed of entertainment lawyers who were beginning to wonder if sampling was an illegal act of copyright infringement. The fact that the track contained over thirty samples rendered the possibility that 'Pump Up The Volume' was potentially one of the most illegal records ever released.
"We should have been sued by everybody' said Watts-Russell 'It was a brilliant record. A lot of the samples were taken from Eric B & Rakim, but they thought it was fine. We even licensed it to their record company 4th and Broadway in the USA. We didn't get one sample clearance that's how maverick it was. This was pre De La Soul. Sampling was done all the time on pirate radio in New York, but no one dared put it on a record, the thing you actually paid money for."
In a fit of grandstanding on which their reputation would soon flourish, the only copyright owners to sue M/A/R/R/S were the production team of Stock Aitken and Waterman. The chutzpah of SAW and their original 'Sound of a Bright Young Britain' was revealed in the courts, as it became clear that the piece of music for which they were claiming copyright was itself a sample. 4AD settled out of court with Stock, Aitken and Waterman by giving a donation to charity. In a rare instance of a record company regretting a number one single, Watts-Russell began to try and come to terms with his label's newly found international chart success. The entire process of releasing 'Pump Up The Volume' had convinced him that to continually strive for commercial breakthroughs was not necessarily a philosophy or premise that suited the running of a record company. Instead 'Pump Up The Volume' re-enforced his belief in working with artists he found interesting however vague their prospects in the charts might be; a position that would ironically ensure further commercial reward for 4AD.
'Pump Up The Volume' was ahead of its time legally, technologically and especially musically. The single is the sound of people in a studio gleefully experimenting, unaware that they are breaking any rules as the rules have yet to be decided. It's also a wonderful example of working on the fly and seeing what happens next, of putting out a record without any expectations and dealing with the consequences as they arrive. In the case of 'Pump Up The Volume' the least of which was having a number one.

So many things have happened lately, it would seem unfair not to share them since… well, let's face it, I haven't exactly been the best blogger the last few months. So for this 100th post, here's a little overview of what I've been up to!
First of all, I graduated this June and I was finally able to enjoy a well deserved holiday after a few tough months. Twitter may not have any secrets for me anymore but I'm certainly glad I could put all my thesis-related readings in a box and say: "That is done!"
I had the chance to spend 10 days in Portugal, more specifically in Estoril. A lovely little place, though a bit windy. We found out that it's a very popular zone for surfers and… casino players. And while I was worried I would gain a few pounds because of all the food, I was pleased to find out that Estoril is hilly. Yes, quite hilly, indeed! Hello, free exercise! Needless to say I was happy to practice my Portuguese with some very lovely people! 🙂
A very wise quote, if you ask me! Captured in a market in Estoril 🙂
I flew to Portugal with this huge thrill in my heart: right before packing, I got great news: I got a job as a Communications Assistant in the most friendly work environment anyone could dream of! Bonus: it's also multicultural. What more could I ask for?
When I got back home, I remembered that I got a ticket for the Holi Festival of Colours in Brussels! It was the first time we had this in Brussels and I just couldn't miss it!
I had the chance to meet up with long-lost friends and we had a lot of catching up to do! All in all, great fun! We were a mess after all the coloured powder (I bet even my lungs were a nice shade of turquoise/pink/purple/yellow) and we got funny looks on the metro on our way back but who cares? It was one of these events we simply could not miss!
And to finish this memorable post on a nice, pink note, here is a lovely shot of Lake Hillier, on Middle Island, in Western Australia. I came across this picture a while ago and I had this "The world is full of wonders" moment. You can read more about it here.
Yet another thing added on my travel list! Ain't that lovely? 🙂

Phanuel stood on his bed peering down across the Sailex interior. It was obvious there had been a significant passage of time, as he was experiencing an extreme sense of having rested and slept. This had not been the sensation last he'd remembered.
Sailex appeared in front of him (the spirit of the craft herself) and spoke in tongues for a few seconds before proceeding to tell him the news. It's better to get in tune with the Lord first, afterall, she thought.
"We're creaming them." she said finally. Phanuel looked up at her and nodded. Not that he trusted himself but the Lord had indeed gifted him to deal with these kinds of situations. She went back to the main control panel and offered him a seat as well. "Are you interested in piloting for a while? It's my turn for a break!"
"Sure, I'd love to. What an honor!" Phanuel stepped over her into the control pod and was able to switch places with her to the point that the entire ship now became an extension of his soul. Behind him Sailex now lay down on the bed, opening an old Catholic volume.
"This book is exactly like Inception. Have you ever seen that movie? I love that movie!" And she started to read a chapter to him.
"I don't watch movies." Phanuel said, engrossed with scanning the remains of the battlefield. It looked like a massacre, with very few good guys lost. Utilizing Sailex technology updated by Heaven's finest and latest technicians, he was able to assess the situation in no time. It was actually his style, and he appreciated not having to sit through Sailex's report. Soon he would be back to normal and able to use his own craft. I should point out that a lot of these angels and spirits have their own craft named after them, or at least close. Phanuel's craft was usually called the Penuel.
"The spiritual nuptials introduced by an imaginary vision. . ." Sailex began to read to him.
"Seriously I'm okay for now. However, your voice is lovely, keep reading!" He added, not wanting to lose this chance to operate this unique and special craft. Perhaps he could get the entire Phoenix to come here and share more secret angel prototype craft like Sailex!
Suddenly his whole mind began to tickle and red swirly things appeared. There must have been something wrong! All of her sensors were picking up something strange, definitely out of the ordinary. . . the craft swooped down over the wreckage of more enemy craft. Small flags had been erected over fallen warriors that had belonged to their side in the past (the saints who had been carried over to work in the enemy's camp).
"Isn't it beautiful how the Lord is inviting His brides into intimate union with Him through imagination? No matter how long we use this weapon of intimate love with Him it just never gets old. Finish up there soon Phanuel, we need to go back to Heaven and soak in this!" She said, unaware of the alert signal. She was really resting now.
Let her rest, Phanuel thought, pinpointing one of many moving targets. The Enemy was reviving? No. . . this was something else! Upon closer inspection it seemed a miracle had taken place. Dead bones were rising up out of the battlefield, no longer dead. Flesh began to cover them, and soon they were standing fresh and as good as new. A light shone from above the clouds and soon it was obvious the reason for this sudden resurrection.
<Jesus> I am come that you guys may have life and life abundantly! All who are Mine will stay Mine, and will never be lost, even if they give up on themselves. . .
HIS VOICE rang in everyone's ears. The other people down below who had come to help clean up everything started to worship Him. There was a gentle and glrorious melody that rang through the air and Phanuel had to park the Sailex due to the sheer emotion of the moment. He could no longer drive clearly anyway because of the tears running down his face!
He opened the door and came down the walkway of the craft with Sailex behind him, and they just stood there and praised God as the power to raise the dead was being clearly seen here – not the devils, mind you, but all the saints who had died in this fight were now being brought back.
<Phanuel> Lord you are worthy of all our praise forever! How is it this could happen here? How could your children fall like this in the spirit?
<Jesus> There is so much freedom for My children, and they even have the freedom to leave me if they choose. However no one comes to Me can ever be lost. Now I have come that they might have the victory, for even in seeming defeat is My total victory over death seen!
NOW THOUSANDS OF FALLEN were coming to Him and thanking Him, although they were naked at first angels swept down and clothed them. One could sense the deep sorrow they had for having failed and yet Jesus washed all these tears away. The love everywhere was immense, and now it was obvious what this battle was all about.
Many of these were the Lord's brides who had since ceased desiring to follow Him as such. The pursuit of this world's trinkets or whatever had obviously gotten in the way, and the Enemy had recruited them even to the point of their fighting God's army.
<Jesus> Remember that I do not judge nor condemn anyone. I hope for all to come to Me to truly know how much I love and forgive everyone. Phanuel you have already inherited some of these old mantles and recovered lost brides. The Rachel mantle has been given you to know Me intimately also as the bride, so that any time you wish you are now able to come to Me.
<Phanuel> Lord, this awesome gift is beyond me, but let it be as You have said.
Phanuel thought of calling up Rachel at that moment, but knowing she was probobly busy he decided against it. There were more battles to come, he felt. Now Sailex was getting busy with the newly revived souls and receiving orders from Jesus to start taking them back to the base. StarLion appeared above the battlefield, and Cloud came and removed much of the infrastructure she had provided for the grid (more on that later!)
<Zhang Fei> Phanuel you have way too many mantles. When are you going to share these?
<Phanuel> That's for me to decide!
Zhang Fei was one of the ancient Chinese warriors sent to finish off the remaining hordes. He pointed to the sky as the StarLion arrived and then another smaller craft, about the size of say maybe a large mansion came and landed in front of them.
<ZhangFei> Tea? Aboard the Naioth? The school of the prophets!
<Phanuel> Sounds like a plan. Let the Lord and the StarLion personell take care of this situation! I'm ready for what's next.

Tiny garden shed and tiny planthouses require very little building material as well as might be constructed by an inexperienced craftsperson with trivial or no background in the construction trades. I would recommend highly beginning by setting up a small-sized shed as opposed to a much larger wooden storage shed initially. Doing this will ensure the experience much more pleasurable and will give you a general taste of precisely how all of the action of designing your own outdoor space affordable garden sheds will feel like. Creating a small garden shed will also make it possible for anyone to experiment with no spending a great deal of dollars.
Substantial garden sheds and substantial potting sheds are a somewhat more complicated and can have a little more moment to blueprint and construct. If you intend creating a big garden shed, you should think about getting yourself a comprehensive array of storage shed plan of actions. Having a favorable set of garden shed plan of actions can make all of them the big difference around the world. They can save you period of time by definitely not must create your own blueprints, allowing adjustments as you build your wooden storage shed and should guess and in some cases also get to know by means of experimentation. There's absolutely nothing more aggravating than doing something two or three times. The money you will conserve by containing a material list that possesses a large number of outdoor space shed plan of actions will certainly be one more substantial advantage to anyone, viewing as exactly how you won't must purchase additional component.
