The big news over the weekend was that Israel did not launch a ground invasion of Gaza. Israel says it held off on the invasion to allow time for efforts at reaching a long-term cease-fire to continue. But Israel has also said that, although it prefers a diplomatic solution, any agreement must erase the threat of rocket attacks against Israel's southern residents.
This would seem to be an obvious point. It makes no sense for Israel to back down without having obtained real protection for its citizens.
Unfortunately, the goal of securing southern Israel from rocket attack cannot be achieved through an agreement. Promises by Hamas to stop launching rockets would be meaningless after a few months. The same is true of promises by others to stop supplying Hamas with rockets; nor would be most dangerous party, Iran, be a party to such an agreement. And it is difficult to imagine an inspection regime that would accomplish Israel's objectives, much less one that Hamas would agree to absent a crushing military defeat.
Accordingly, Israel must either finish the military job it started, which would accomplish its security objective for a few years anyway, or leave its southern citizens vulnerable to bombardment in the short term.
A cease fire agreement at this juncture, then, would represent another failed effort by Israel to obtain security from its weaker enemies, even as its only powerful enemy moves ever closer to developing a nuclear weapons capability.

Home > Convection > DIMPLEX HEATERS > PLX Panel Heater 1000w
PLX Panel Heater 1000w
The PLX range is a popular choice for specifiers, home owners and contractors who demand stylish, space saving and efficient electric heating systems. Styled to complement our popular XL storage heaters and DuoHeat radiators, PLX panel heaters are often used to heat areas such as bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens and other areas, which only require heating for short periods of the day.
They are also a cost effective way to extend an existing heating system when buildings are being refurbished or new rooms added.
- Full range available in willow white to match XL storage heaters
- Convected heat for rapid warm-up
- Suitable for domestic or commercial use
- Choice of models with or without timers
- All models splashproof (IPX4 rated) for use in bathrooms and other wet areas
- High accuracy adjustable thermostat responds to very small changes in room temperature to reduce temperature drift (not applicable to PLX NC range)
- Frost protection setting (not applicable to PLX NC range)
- Option of programmable 24-hour timers
- Front air outlet grille for efficient heat circulation
- Lockable dust cover protects controls
- Detachable hinged wall mounting frame for fast installation and easy cleaning
Technical Details:
- Thermostat Control: User selection of room temperature from 5°C (frost protection) to 35°C using rotary knob.
- On/off switch: A single pole on/off switch controls the electricity supply to the heater. A neon indicator will illuminate when the switch is ON and power is being supplied to the elements.
- Built-in 24 hour/7 day programmers (TI/TX models): Incorporating accurate and reliable timers, the built-in 24 hour time clock on the PLX/TI models enables daily heating needs to be programmed in advance. The clock may be set to switch on and off as often as required throughout the day. When heat is needed unexpectedly, an override switch enables the timer to be by-passed without altering the pre-set programme. The selector control also has an OFF position.
- Heat selection switch: Each model incorporates a half heat selection switch, enabling the smallest model to be switched to just 250W, ideal for small rooms. The thermostat operates on full or half load.
- Thermostat: Dimplex PLX panel heaters feature close tolerance gas-filled thermostats, maintaining room temperatures to within +/- 1.5°C, eliminating resultant under/over heating and improving user comfort and energy efficiency. Range 5°-35°C.
- Element: Compact, finned, mineral-filled sheathed type, providing silent operation.
- Thermal Cut-out: Auto reset type.
- Construction: Durable epoxy-polyester powder coated steel casing, with forward facing grille. Temperature resistant PBT thermoplastic moulded parts.
- Colour/Finish: Standard models: willow white front and rear panels, with contrasting birch grey grille. PLXWTI models: pure white front, rear and grille.
- Installation: Detachable wall mounting bracket.
- Electrical Connections: 1.0m, of supply cable fitted to each heater.
- IP Rating: Splashproof IPX4.
Delivery time: 1-2 Business Days.

These rules and regulations are promulgated under the authority of Chapters 23-73 and 23-17 of the General Laws of Rhode Island, as amended, and are established for the purpose of adopting requirements for the use of latex gloves by health care workers, by other persons, firms, or corporations licensed or registered by the Department of Health, and the use of latex gloves in licensed health care facilities. The use of disposable, non-sterile and sterile natural rubber latex gloves shall be prohibited by any person, firm, or corporation, registered pursuant to sections 21-27-10 and 21-27-11 of the Rhode Island General Laws, as amended (e.g., retail food service establishment).
The Rhode Island General Assembly found that latex allergies are increasingly becoming a problem for people who are exposed to disposable non-sterile and sterile latex gloves, such as health care workers, patients, food service workers, manufacturers, hair dressers, child care workers, and children. There are three (3) types of reactions that can occur in persons using latex products:
Reaction to latex may manifest through skin rashes, hives, itching, swollen skin, swollen lips and tongue, shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting, eyes or sinus symptoms, asthma and difficulty breathing, coughing spells, wheezing, and shock. In 1997, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health issued an alert concerning the danger of exposure to latex products and requested assistance preventing allergic reactions to natural rubber latex among workers who use gloves and other products containing latex.
On April 12, 1999, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, United States Department of Labor, issued the Technical Bulletin concerning the potential harm to workers from natural rubber latex gloves and other natural rubber products, such as gloves, airway masks, medication vial caps, anesthesia bags, catheters, intravenous supplies, dental dams, balloons, and other products. Latex gloves are the major contributor for latex allergies. The United States Food and Drug Administration requires medical devices containing latex to carry a warning about potential allergic reaction.
In 1995, the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology concluded that the single greatest product causing adverse reaction to latex rubber are latex gloves. The National Institute of Safety and Health concluded that latex allergies can be prevented if employers establish policies that protect workers and the public from unnecessary latex exposure.
Pursuant to the provisions of section 42-35-3(c) of the General Laws of Rhode Island, as amended, consideration was given to:
No alternative approach, overlap or duplication nor any significant economic impact was identified, consequently the regulations are adopted in the best interest of the health, safety and welfare of the public.
Wherever used in these rules and regulations, the following terms shall be construed as follows:
"Department" means the Rhode Island Department of Health.
"Director" means the Director of the Rhode Island Department of Health.
"Health care facility", pursuant to Chapter 23-17 of the Rhode Island General Laws, as amended, means any institutional health service provider, facility or institution, place, building, agency, or portion thereof, whether a partnership or corporation, whether public or private, whether organized for profit or not, used, operated, or engaged in providing health care services, including but not limited to hospitals; nursing facilities; home nursing care provider (which shall include skilled nursing services and may also include activities allowed as a home care provider, or as a nursing service agency); home care provider (which may include services such as personal care or homemaker services or as a nursing service agency); nursing service agency; rehabilitation centers; kidney disease treatment centers; health maintenance organizations; free-standing emergency care facilities, and facilities providing surgical treatment to patients not requiring hospitalization (surgi-centers); hospice care, and physician office settings providing surgical treatment. The term "health care facility" also includes organized ambulatory care facilities which are not part of a hospital but which are organized and operated to provide health care services to outpatients such as central services facilities serving more than one health care facility or health care provider, treatment centers, diagnostic centers, rehabilitation centers, outpatient clinics, infirmaries and health centers, school-based health centers and neighborhood health centers; providing, however, that the term "health care facility" shall not apply to organized ambulatory care facilities owned and operated by professional service corporations as defined in chapter 5.1 of title 7, as amended (the "Professional Service Corporation Law"), or to a private practitioner's (physician, dentist, or other health care provider) office or group of the practitioners' offices (whether owned and/or operated by an individual practitioner, alone or as a member of a partnership, professional service corporation, organization, or association). Individual categories of health care facilities shall be defined in rules and regulations promulgated by the licensing agency with the advice of the Health Services Council. Rules and regulations concerning hospice care shall be promulgated with regard to the "Standards of a Hospice Program of Care", promulgated by national hospice organization. Any provider of hospice care who provides such hospice care without charge shall be exempt from the licensing provisions of Chapter 23-17 of the Rhode Island General Laws, as amended, but shall meet the "Standards of a Hospice Program of Care." Facilities licensed by the Department of Mental Health, Retardation and Hospitals, and the Department of Human Services, and clinical laboratories licensed in accordance with chapter 16.2 of Title 23, as well as Christian Science institutions (also known as Christian Science Nursing Facilities) listed and certified by the Commission for Accreditation of Christian Science Nursing Organizations/Facilities, Inc. shall not be considered health care facilities for purposes of Chapter 23-17 of the Rhode Island General Laws, as amended.
"Health care provider" means any person holding a license, certificate, or registration issued by the Director and/or the Department that authorizes the person to provide health care services. For the purposes of these regulations, "health care provider" does not include those persons who are employed by a "health care provider" or those persons employed by a licensed health care facility.
"Health care worker" means any person who has or may have direct patient contact in a health care facility, including, but not limited to, a physician, dentist, nurse, optometrist, podiatrist, physical therapist, social worker, pharmacist, or psychologist, and any officer, employee or agent of that provider acting in the course and scope of his or her employment or agency who has or may have exposure to latex gloves or other latex products. For the purposes of these regulations, "health care worker" shall also mean those non-employee staff, such as volunteers, who are involved in direct patient contact. Transient employees not involved in direct patient contact or outside contractors not involved in direct patient contact are exempt from the requirements stated herein.
"Latex gloves" or "natural latex gloves", as used herein, mean gloves that are made, in whole or in part, of natural rubber latex, including gloves that are packed in powder which includes natural rubber latex particles.
"Other person, firm, or corporation licensed or registered by the Department", as used herein, means any individual or facility that is licensed or registered by the Department and does not fall into the category of either health care provider or health care facility, as defined herein, and uses latex gloves in the course of rendering services for which the license or registration is issued (e.g., tattoo artist, hair dresser).
"Person" means any individual, trust or estate, partnership, corporation (including associations, joint stock companies), limited liability company, state, or political subdivisions or instrumentality of a state.
In those instances where a health care provider is employed by a health care facility or by another health care provider, the employer (i.e., health care facility or health care provider) shall be responsible for implementing the regulatory requirements contained herein.
The use of disposable, nonsterile and sterile natural rubber latex gloves shall be prohibited by any person, firm, or corporation, registered pursuant to sections 21-27-10 and 21-27-11 of the Rhode Island General Laws, as amended (e.g., retail food service establishments, restaurants, cafeterias).
Health care providers, licensed health care facilities, and other persons, firms, or corporations licensed or registered by the Department that utilize latex gloves shall post a notice informing and warning employees and the public:
The notice required in section 2.3 shall include letters which are at least three-eighths (3/8) of an inch high and shall be posted in conspicuous areas (e.g., lobby, patient care areas, employee bulletin boards) throughout the premises.
The notice required in section 2.3 shall be posted in English, Spanish and other languages, as appropriate, to the language needs of the individuals served by the health care provider, health care facility, or other person, firm, or corporation licensed or registered by the Department. An example of an English language notice that contains the minimum required language appears in Appendix A. (For sample notices in languages other than English, please reference the Department's website: www.healthri.org).
Health care providers and licensed health care facilities shall provide health care workers with initial education and annual in-service education pertaining to latex safety. Such education may include:
Licensed health care facilities shall ensure that health care workers are represented on latex allergy or safety committees.
Health care providers, licensed health care facilities, and other persons, firms, or corporations licensed or registered by the Department shall minimize health care workers' exposure to latex consistent with maintaining safety in regulated industries whose workers are exposed to blood borne pathogens pursuant to the provisions of the OSHA Blood Borne Pathogens Standard (See Reference 1). Non-latex gloves which provide a blood borne pathogen barrier are available which can minimize health care workers exposure to latex and protect the health care worker from blood borne pathogens.
Health care providers, licensed health care facilities, and other persons, firms, or corporations licensed or registered by the Department shall be engaged in latex minimization activities that may include the following components:
If any provision of these rules and regulations or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall be held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the provisions or application of the rules and regulations which can be given effect, and to this end the provisions of the rules and regulations are declared to be severable.

Firebug 2.0 alpha 1
getfirebug.com has Firebug 2.0 alpha 1
Firebug 2.0a1 fixes 174 issues
Firebug 2.0a1 is compatible with Firefox 30-31
Update: an issue with Firefox 30 compatibility fixed
This alpha represents the first public release that is based on new Firefox debugging engine (also known as JSD2). Firebug team has been working hard to adopt this new API and has also done great job with polishing Firebug UI that is now matching the Australis theme introduced in Firefox 29.
This version introduces many changes and we decided to bump up the version number to 2 (!) starting from alpha 1. Firebug users having Firebug 1.13 alpha installed will be automatically updated (assuming they are using Firefox 30+).
Check out the following screenshot showing the basic Firebug 2 UI
Firebug refactoring touched mainly the Script panel, which represents the heart of debugging with Firebug. Some other panels changed too since they are integrated with the Script panel through e.g. the Break On … feature.
There are plenty of bug fixes (also because we removed the old and buggy JSD1 debugging engine) and also many new features. You can check out all fixed issues. For instance, one of the most visible thing is probably that the Script panel supports JavaScript syntax highlighting.
Syntax coloring is also there if you edit HTML as a free text by clicking on the Edit button in the toolbar. CSS source edit is also supporting it.
There are other new things and we will be explaining them in following posts on this blog. So, stay tuned!
This is the first alpha, but we believe that Firebug 2 is already in great shape. We spent time also on improving our automated testing framework and we wrote new tests that cover more Firebug features. Still, feedback from you is valuable. Let us know how this brand new Firebug version works for you, so we can switch to beta phase soon and consequently do a final release!
So, give it a try and install Firebug 2 alpha 1
Please post feedback in the newsgroup.

The first child with three parents was just born, in Vancouver, British Columbia (via CBC). Della Wolf Kangro Wiley Richards was born to two lesbian parents Danielle Wiley and Anna Richards, as well as the biological father, Shawn Kangro.
Canada's Family Law Act, passed in March of last year, allows for birth certificates with up to four parents. Wiley and Richards knew they wanted to have a child through natural means ("homestyle," as Wiley puts it), but it was important that the biological father still be a part of their child's life. Kangro made the most sense, as he was a close friend of Richards, and Wiley carried the baby to term. To make sure everything was clear in advance of the birth, a contract was drawn up: Wiley and Richards are essentially the parents, with custodial and financial responsibility, but Kangro is still a guardian and has rights to access (it's essentially visitation rights, but Canadian).
Even though the law was passed months ago, the parents weren't able to fill out forms online, as the process still only accounted for two parents. The parents requested a physical form, and were able to complete the process without any other problems. Richards says that their friends, family, and local community have been incredibly supportive. "We're just this family doing our thing," said Richards. "It's real now."

text: Have you ever dropped a puzzle box or had your kids mix up the pieces to different puzzles? Sorting that mess can take forever! When you buy a puzzle, take the time to mark the back of each piece the same number or same letter (ex: your waterfall puzzle has the letter "A" on every piece). That way, when you are searching for puzzle pieces, the back will all have the same number or letter for easy matching. If you mix up the pieces you can easily sort by the information on the back of the piece. This can work for toys with a ton of pieces, too.

Proposed Canon
First Appearance: TBFGK Epilogue 15
Certain animals or wildlife exist in Erfworld that are not part of a side. They are not Units, but can be interacted with by units.
Animals can be killed by Units. They can then be used to create provisions, or their constituent parts may be utilized as resources to create useful items (fur rugs, and so forth).
The general rule with ferals is, if it is bigger than you, it will attack. Otherwise, it will not willingly engage.
Some animals are subtly altered relative to their Real World counterparts. (Note the horns on the "horned sheep" in the image to the right.)
Known Animals
See: Bestiary
While Transylvitians and some other Units (ie. doombats, gwiffons, and other predatory species) can consume portions of animals raw in lieu of provisions or Rations, other Units (ie. Men, Twolls) cook portions of a carcass. While in the field, weather can prevent the building of campfires, forcing Units requiring cooked meat to draw from previously prepared provisions or paying full Upkeep for Rations.
Instances of using wildlife as provisions:
- Bogroll made a pigeon pie (with walnuts)Erf-b1-p037
- Bogroll later brings Parson a plate of provisions including some sort of small bird to tide him over until breakfast poppedErf-b1-p104
- Doombats eating mosquitoes
- Doombats draining a horned sheep of blood
- Transylvito vampire warlords draining a horned sheep of blood
- Jillian Zamussels roasting the haunch of a horned sheep
- Jillian gutting a pet fish
- Gwiffons sucking the marrow and absorbing the hooves and horns of a horned sheep (perhaps in reference to the popular belief that gelatin is made from hooves and horns)
- Countess Artemis and her stack could leave their pre-packed provisions untouched and only ate what she shot on her way from Firestone to Spacerock
- An applebee apparently produces honey, as there is a mead (fermented honey drink) named after it in WB2014 Digdoug - Episode 11.
- This topic is currently under discussion. See the Talk page for details.
Feral creatures, currently assumed to be a type of wildlife, can be tamed. This appears to turn them into normal units for a side. Taming is not a universally available ability. Vinny Doombats has the ability to tame feral bats, and the Arkenhammer conveys the ability to tame dwagons. While a fugitive prisoner, Jillian Zamussels tamed a yellow dwagon by first feeding it a high elf.IPTSF Text 45 Some wildlife are not known to be completely tamable, but can be made friendly.
Cooking in the Real World kills disease causing bacteria, tenderizes the meat, eases digestion, and alters the flavor of the original meat. So far, there has been no mention of disease or parasites in the comic, so the function of cooking may be limited to the latter functions.
The feral bat tamed by Vinny Doombats differs in appearance from the doombatsErf-b1.5-p016 and may be a different creature altogether.

New Mexico Geology Studies Stratigraphy of Tanos and Blackshare Formations
SOCORRO, N.M., February 3, 2003 - The latest issue of New Mexico Geology focuses on the stratigraphy of the Tanos and Blackshare Formations, two newly defined lithostratigraphic units in the Hagan embayment along the Rio Grande rift. The formations comprise over a kilometer of sedimentary and volcanic rocks.
The Tanos Formation is 279 meters, or 915 feet thick, whereas the overlying Blackshare Formation is over 1,000 meters, or 3,281 feet thick. The article states that the relationship between the formations indicates that they are a derivation from the nearby Ortiz Mountains in Santa Fe County.
Another article presents the study of fossilized marine fauna in the Bar B Formation of the Derry Hills, New Mexico. The fauna contains mainly three mollusk species, suggesting that it lived in a deep, quiet marine environment on organic-rich, poorly oxygenated muddy substrate.
The periodical also features abstracts from talks given at the 23rd Annual New Mexico Mineral Symposium in November 2002. Geologists from across the country discussed their mineralogical findings, such as the recovery of a 17-ton copper boulder in Lake Superior, and the microchemical investigation of the colors of smithsonite, examples of which grace the cover of this issue of New Mexico Geology.
New Mexico Geology is published quarterly by New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources (NMBGMR), a service division of New Mexico Tech. A subscription to the award-winning journal costs $12 per year, or $22 for two years. Individual issues may be purchased for $3.50 each. For more information about New Mexico Geology, or any other NMBGMR publication, write to the Bureau Publication Office, New Mexico Tech, 801 Leroy Place, Socorro, NM 87801, call (505) 835-5410, or visit the Bureau's website at http://geoinfo.nmt.edu.

Syria Islamist fighters in Aleppo reject new opposition
Islamist rebel groups in the Syrian city of Aleppo say they reject the new Western-backed opposition coalition.
In an internet video, they denounced what they called "the conspiratorial project" and said they intend to establish an "Islamist state" in Syria.
The EU recognised the new coalition on Monday as "legitimate representatives" of the Syrian people, but did not grant it full recognition.
France has already backed the group as "sole representative" of Syrians.
Known as the National Coalition for Syrian Revolutionary and Opposition Forces and formed in Qatar on 11 November, the opposition has also been given full recognition by Turkey and the six Gulf states.
The UK may also follow suit, with Foreign Secretary William Hague due to make a parliamentary statement later on Tuesday, BBC Diplomatic Correspondent Jonathan Marcus reports.
Mr Hague met the three main leaders of the new coalition in London last Friday, and told reporters in Brussels on Monday that he "was impressed with their objectives... their determination to be inclusive in Syria of all communities and groups within Syria".
Respect for human rights and inclusivity were essential preconditions for UK recognition, our correspondent adds.
Recognition for the opposition grouping would open the way to additional practical and political assistance, but falls short of arming fighters on the ground.
'Major step'
In Syria's second city, Aleppo, Islamist rebels are unimpressed with the new grouping.
In a video posted online, an unidentified speaker sits at the head of a long table with representatives of 14 armed Islamist groups who reject the opposition coalition.
The groups included two of the main fighting factions in Aleppo, the al-Nusra Front, and the Tawhid Brigade.
"We are the representatives of the fighting formations in Aleppo and we declare our rejection of the conspiratorial project, the so-called national alliance," he says. "We have unanimously agreed to urgently establish an Islamic state."
The significance of the video proclamation was played down by the opposition coalition's new leader Moaz al-Khatib, who said in Cairo: "We will keep in contact with them for more cooperation in the interest of the Syrian people".
Mainstream rebel groups, such as the Free Syrian Army, have generally welcomed the new coalition leadership, the BBC's Jim Muir reports.
US State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said it was "not surprising to us that those who want an extremist state, or a heavily Islamist state in Syria, have taken issue" with an opposition endorsing pluralism and tolerance.
But it will serve to increase fears among some Western nations who are already concerned that any arms sent to help the rebels in Syria could end up in the hands of extremists, observers say.
The EU's 27 foreign ministers, meeting in Brussels, said they considered the opposition coalition "legitimate representatives of the aspirations of the Syrian people".
"This agreement represents a major step towards the necessary unity of the Syrian opposition," they said, stopping short of offering full diplomatic recognition.
Last week, US President Barack Obama welcomed the coalition, but said the US wanted to make sure it "is committed to a democratic Syria, an inclusive Syria, a moderate Syria" before giving full recognition.
Inside Syria, nearly 100 people were killed on Monday, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported.
Fighting continued on the southern outskirts of the capital Damascus, with Reuters reporting that Syrian rebels had seized the headquarters of an army battalion there.
Nato is considering a request from Turkey for ground-to-air missiles to help protect its border with Syria.
More than 38,000 people are believed to have died in the 20-month uprising against the rule of President Bashar al-Assad.
International charity Save the Children has warned that 200,000 Syrian refugee children are at serious risk from freezing temperatures, as winter begins in the Middle East.
Many families have fled across the borders to Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon to escape the conflict, and more than two million people are displaced within Syria - living without the proper shelter and clothing to survive the falling temperatures.

Pete Metzelaars was relieved of his duties as the Bills' tight ends coach along with the rest of the team's coaching staff at the end of the 2012 season and he's not shy about sharing his thoughts about why the team underperformed to the point that they decided to clean house on the sideline.
Metzelaars points the finger squarely at quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, saying that finding a quarterback has to be the team's No. 1 priority this offseason. Metzelaars had some unkind words about the play of the defense as well, but his comments made it clear that he thinks Fitzpatrick's play was the biggest reason why he and his former colleagues lost their jobs.
"If you have a dominating defense, you can get by with an average to below-average quarterback. If you don't have a dominating defense, you need a winning quarterback in the NFL," Metzelaars said, via the Buffalo News. "Fitz is an average to below-average kind of guy, and unfortunately he made some bad decisions at the end of games and then didn't make plays at the ends of other games we had chances to win. So it's got to start there."
Metzelaars pointed to several close losses as games that the Bills could have won with better play from the quarterback, leaving the Bills with a better record and, perhaps, Metzelaars with a job. You could chalk his comments up to hurt feelings, but the fact that the Bills are bringing Tarvaris Jackson back for an "open competition" this offseason suggests that the former Bills tight end isn't the only one who feels the Bills need more at the quarterback position.

ReleasesBack to
Tina Brooks
Redd's Blues didn't make it to LP until 1988 and CD until 2002 and that's a tip-off. It's a generic Blue Note disc, journeyman in the sense of not offering any great revelation, no undiscovered "shoulda-been-a-standard" composition, nothing to supplant The Connection as the first Freddie Redd disc to look for or add any greater luster to his welterweight reputation. The sextet lineup reads better than it plays -- it's perfectly adequate, but no one sounds inspired except for trumpeter Benny Bailey, who was back in the U.S. for a handful of recording dates. Jackie McLean's tart tone is immediately recognizable on the up-tempo opener "Now," with a solid groove from Paul Chambers and drummer Sir John Godfrey, the latter fond of Art Blakey bombs that aren't obtrusive. He's miked very high, so every stick click and cymbal sizzle is audible, which may account for why Tina Brooks' tenor never sounds more than just present in the room. Redd is a pretty fundamental player, with a bluesy feel lurking close beneath the surface that comes out on "Old Spice" and some nicely down-home soloing on the light, springy "Blues for Betsy" following Bailey's opening solo blast. But Chambers' arco solo discordantly derails the momentum and some nice horn harmonies on the head to "Love Lost" is about the only other thing worth noting. It's puzzling why the performances are so lukewarm because McLean and Brooks were well familiar with Redd's music, Chambers is Chambers, and Bailey is probably the most impressive player here apart from the leader. Great labels have their uninspired sessions, too, and Redd's Blues sounds like one of those off-days where the music just came out sounding generic and lifeless. ~ Don Snowden

7 November 2013 at 4.05pm | 1 Comment
The Royal Opera's exciting new Linbury Studio Theatre commission How the Whale Became is an opera specially written for children and families to enjoy and is part of a remarkable tradition of family operas. Here are a few examples:
Hänsel und Gretel (1893) by Engelbert Humperdinck
Humperdinck's best-loved opera had very simple origins: Humperdinck's sister Adelheid wrote a play about Hansel and Gretel for her children, and asked her brother to write some songs for it. Finding he enjoyed the work, Humperdinck turned the songs into a full-scale opera, with a libretto by Adelheid. With its luscious palette of orchestral colours, rich harmonies and wonderful symphonic orchestral interludes (showing Humperdinck's debt to his friend Richard Wagner) there's plenty in this beautiful work to appeal to opera lovers of any age. But Humperdinck's wonderfully memorable melodies, inventive use of folksong and dance rhythms – and of course the fairytale story –make this opera particularly appealing for children. Hänsel und Gretel was first performed the night before Christmas Eve, and has come to be closely associated with Christmas.
L'Enfant et les sortilèges (1925) by Maurice Ravel
Ravel's second opera wasn't specifically written specifically for children, but its host of vivid comic characters and fairytale-like story makes it very appealing for a young audience. At the start of the opera, the unruly Child throws a tantrum, hurts his pets and vandalizes the room. He gets the surprise of his life when the furniture and the characters from his books come to life to chide him for his bad behaviour – and even more when the animals in the garden begin to talk! Highlights include a jazzy duet for a Teapot and Chinese cup, a pastiche baroque ensemble for the shepherds and shepherdesses torn from the patterned wallpaper, a modernist 'meowing' duet for two cats, a short aria for a coughing Squirrel and the animals' moving hymn in praise of the Child's kindness that closes the opera.
Noye's Fludde (1958) by Benjamin Britten
Britten's ninth opera is not only written for children, but to be performed by them. Noye's Fludde is based on an early 15th-century play from the Chester Mystery cycle, inspired by one of the most loved of Bible stories. The opera is written for chamber ensemble, amateur orchestra (including strings, bugles, hand-bells and percussion), seven child soloists, a children's chorus, an actor and two professional singers (Noye and Mrs Noye). Britten skilfully integrates three well-known hymns – 'Lord Jesus Think on Me', 'Eternal Father, Strong to Save' and 'The Spacious Firmament on High', set to Tallis's Canon – into his inventive and tuneful score. Noye's Fludde is perhaps the most successful community opera ever written, memorably performed in Wes Anderson's film Moonrise Kingdom. In 2012 it became the first opera to be performed in a zoo.
Where the Wild Things Are (1980, revised 1984) by Oliver Knussen
Knussen's first opera is based on Maurice Sendak's hugely popular picture book of the same title. Wild boy Max is sent to his room after throwing a tantrum, and travels to a magical land 'where the Wild Things are'. Here his bravery proves useful when he conquers the Wild Things who 'gnash their terrible teeth and roll their terrible eyes'. He becomes their King, and leads them in a Wild Rumpus. Just as things are beginning to get out of control, Max wakes up safe at home. Knussen's brilliantly creative score includes tributes to Stravinsky (in the Wild Rumpus dance), Debussy and Mussorgsky. When the opera was first performed by Glyndebourne Touring Opera in 1984, Knussen paired it with Higglety Pigglety Pop!, another one-act opera with a text adapted by Sendak, this time from his book about the adventures of his terrier Jennie.
How the Whale Became runs from 3 December 2013 – 4 Janaury 2013. Tickets are still available.
The production is generously supported by the Taylor Family Foundation, Mrs Lily Safra, The Royal Opera House Endowment Fund, The Lord Leonard and Lady Estelle Wolfson Foundation and Britten-Pears Foundation.

text: Hello everyone! I've got another question to answer... When i set up a website (SuPHP+suEXEC), ISPConfig create an /var/www/conf/web{WEB_ID}/php.ini that contains the php configuration for web{WEB_ID}. But when I try to upload a file in each way (via CMS or self-made upload script), i get an open_basedir restriction, 'cause /var/tmp/ is not in the list of the open_basedir. In fact in php.ini i find /var/tmp/ as temporary folder for uploads. Now, I know how is foolish to disable open_basedir for security reasons, but i think that ISPConfig has to set /var/clients/client{client_id}/web{web_id}/tmp/ as tmp folder for upload and NOT /var/tmp/. How can i get out of this?

In the past, some studies showed that hot flashes were related to memory problems, and some didn't. Other studies showed that, even though there was a relationship between hot flashes and what women said about memory problems, objective tests didn't confirm it.
That's why researchers from the University of Illinois and Northwestern University in Chicago gave a battery of eight tests of attention and recall to 68 women age 44 to 62 who had at least 35 hot flashes a week. The women also completed questionnaires about their menopause symptoms, mood, and memory. Women who said they had trouble with memory really did. Also, those who had more trouble with hot flashes did worse on the tests, and women with more hot flashes struggled longer with memory problems than women who had fewer hot flashes. In addition, women who reported more negative emotions did worse on the tests than women who had fewer.
Supported by grants from the National Institute of Health (NIH)/Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, the study will be published in the December 2013 print edition of Menopause.

Career Fair Includes 49 Employers
SOCORRO, N.M. September 12, 2012 – The Fall 2012 Career and Graduate School Fair continues to add new recruiters with just a week before the event. 49 exhibitors have signed up and 16 companies are scheduling job interviews with students.
The lead-in workshops available students started Tuesday with a resume-writing workshop. More seminars continue up to the event. See schedule below or click here for the event booklet.
New companies include Honda Research and Development in Ohio; Leprino Foods of Roswell; Esterline Defense in Coachella, Calif; Puppet Labs of Portland, Ore.; Microsoft (returning after a 10 year absence); and Occidental Petroleum, an international company. Christina Anthony, Career Services Coordinator, said she's expecting a huge turnout of students and exhibitors.
"Our students are in high demand," she said. "Tech grads stand out compared to students from other universities. Even though the job market is still tight, we're not as affected as other schools."
Anthony has also expanded the offerings of workshops to help students prepare for the Career Fair. She has added two "flash resume review" sessions and a reception for students and recruiters. The flash resume reviews will be 5-minute reviews during the lunch hours in the Fidel Atrium on the two days before the Career Fair.
The Career Services Office will have a resume-writing workshop, an interviewing workshop, Career Cab (based on the TV show Cash Cab), and a general workshop on preparing for the Career Fair. Check the online calendar for the complete schedule.
"These workshops help students prepare," Anthony said. "There are always things you can do to improve yourself and stand out. Students can be uncomfortable with walking up to a recruiter and speaking to them, but preparation can make a big difference in the impression students make. In addition, the Meet The Recruiters will be a more relaxed setting so students can have more meaningful conversations."
Registration is required for that event and will be limited. Students must also have a minimum 3.0 GPA to attend.
Anthony said to remember that Career Fair is not just for upperclassmen; freshmen and sophomores will find internship and co-op opportunities as well.
"There's value for all students to go," she said. "Some employers like to hire freshmen and keep them coming back every summer."
The Career Fair booklet will include a new section that lists exhibitors by the type of opportunities available – from internships and cooperative education positions through full-time career-track employment.

I had my share of bad luck with men. But a friend of mine put my profile on Flirt and it took a while for me to meet this great man and I am in love. He is really good for me. He's everything I could have ever wanted and more.

Corporations and Libertarianism
I don't see why the concept of the corporation would be anything libertarians would have a problem with... it's just a legal arrangement between free-thinking individuals to raise capital and dissipate risk, imo- and is as old as the hills: the Dutch East India Trading Co. started with this sort or arrangement in the 1600s. It brings the market efficiency of a floating stock price to it's capitalization, and of course we need laws to provide the corporation the same sort of rights as individuals enjoy under the US Constitution... like freedom of speech. I've always thought that America's treatment of corporations as citizens, really, is one of the things hat made our economy so vital...
The problem with 'limited liability' is that the little guy doesn't get it as completely as a 'large' corporation. If you were to form a corporation or any of the other 'limited liability' business entities and then try to get a loan at the bank without waiving your right to limited liability you would be laughed out of the bank.
Should we not allow groups of people like unions to show political support during campaigns? I believe that everyone should have a right to free speech and not just certain groups.
Your Odds of Being Killed By A Terrorist In Flight
For the record, that puts (in the 2000s) 45 from pilot error, 9 from other human error, 8 from weather, 28 from mechanical failure, 9 by sabatoge, and 1 other. According to the North American Air Traffic Controllers Association, there are over 28,000 commercial flights per DAY in the United states, which means more than 10 million per year, and 100 million per decade. That means the rate of sabotaged flight crashing per decade is 9 in 100 million, or that your odds of dying from a sabotaged flight being roughly nine one millionths of a percent. Yeah, I'd say those odds are worth the invasion of millions of innocent people's privacy, and the violation of our 4th amendment rights.... please.
Advancing Libertarian Principles
Here in FL, groups such as the 912 project and DC works for US are pushing to infiltrate the Republican party at the local level and push reaganesque aa.k.a libertarian principles. The Irony about Republican voters is that they vote "republican" but want libertarian ideals like smaller government and lower taxes. My parents are pperfect examples. They said they would never support libertarian ideals or vote libertarian. Both scored strongly libertarian on the "Nolan Test" which proved to them the point I am making now. I believe people in different states should do what the voter laws allow. In Florida, with a closed primary system, a 3rd party is nearly impossible so hijacking the Republican party is the best way. there are quite a few 9/12ers within the REC (the FL RNC). Enough that the previous head of the REC was forced out in favor of a leader that will move the party towrds the tea party/912 movement. So I can't speak for everybody in every state except that I hope we can get people with real libertarian principles elected.

If you had to choose your top 10 rules for living a moral life, what would be in it?
Views: 483
Do no harm.
I'd love to rewrite the 10 commandments, but Jerry Springer beat me to it, and did a better job than I ever could. In fact, he reduced the ten, to one, and closed his show with it: "Be good to yourselves, and each other."
Do we really need more than that?
Now that you mention it, it sounds like it may be all we need.
The Gospel According to Bill and Ted --
1. Don't be an asshole
2. Don't be an idiot
(I don't need 10)
1) Use reason.
2) Do no harm.
3) Take no action that limits the freedom of another
Rule 1. Load your gun.
Rules 2 through 9. Shoot to kill.
I'm pissed off at my printer; it keeps going offline.
Okay, that's out of my system.
I read the rules folks have suggested and conclude that many are suitable only for a world in which -- be warned; I'm about to plagiarize someone -- men and women are angels.
Wouldn't it be nice if none of that ancient pondscum had evolved to become sociopaths? Or to tea party republicans who want to return us to the law of the jungle?
I found this alternative 10 Commandments online:
1. You shall not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.
2. You shall not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass.
3. You shall not carry grudges, for they are the heaviest of all life's burdens.
4. You shall face each problem as it comes. You can only handle one at a time anyway.
5. You shall not take problems to bed with you, for they make very poor bedfellows.
6. You shall not borrow other people's problems. They can better care for them than you.
7. You shall not try to relive yesterday for good or ill, it is forever gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life and be happy now.
8. You shall be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear ideas different from your own.
9. You shall not become bogged down by frustration, for 90% of it is rooted in self-pity and will only interfere with positive action.
10. You shall count your blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one. ~ Author Unknown
U, I like these ten as much as I dislike that ancient ten. Methinks I'll use them in a Toastmasters club speech. Thanks.

My work is about my emotions. It is about the visions I see, the melodies I hear and my deep appreciation for tradition and beauty.
Through art, I advocate and seek balance and harmony. When a pendulum reaches the extremes, it seeks the center. Through balance, we have harmony. Through harmony, peace. And through peace, happiness.
Visual art is also about aesthetics and beauty. Beauty in the colors, the shapes, the lines AND in the balance and harmony created by the interplay of all these different elements.


text: There's a chance that some of the people picking up Assassin's Creed III in a few weeks won't have played the previous entries in Ubisoft's hit historical action series. They won't know about the Altair or the Templars or the Animus. Well, this trailer will bring them up speed in dramatic fashion. It's also narrated by someone very close to the series' modern-day protagonist Desmond Miles. This video—which went live too soon, was region-restricted, reuploaded and posted to NeoGAF--might even be an in-game intro. Strangely, ACIII's hero Connor is nowhere to be seen. Odd bit of business, that.


text: One topic last night on The Joy Behar Show was about men who are addicted to internet porn, which causes problems for them in their real-life sexual relationships, leading some to fake their orgasms. The thing that's annoying about this is that it's not from some kind of sexual dysfunction issue. The guys are just tapped out from playing with themselves all day, and couldn't reserve a load for their girlfriends/wives. Davy Rothbart from New York magazine comes off particularly creepy with his chain and his shifty eyes and his stammering, sharing his methods for tricking his partner into thinking he's climaxed. Gah.

How can our clients better incorporate new skills into their speech in their daily lives? It seems that they are often limited by their social interactions with caregivers, parents or spouses, so that they can't practice or complete speech homework between sessions.
Some of my adult clients will avoid practice sessions with their spouses altogether. How can we encourage use of newly acquired skills between visits? Wouldn't the duration of therapy be reduced and functional communication improved? Research has supported more intensive therapy approaches to promote a more efficient, complete healing process. Because time and funding often limits therapy frequency, we send patients home with work for practice. Follow-through with homework generally rests on the motivation of the client or the client's family. We need to find ways to make the therapy process efficient and functional.
In Pam Marshalla's 2010 book "Carryover Techniques (in Articulation and Phonological Therapy)," she defines the term carryover are referring to "a client's ability to take an individual speech skill learned in the therapy room and to apply it broadly in all speaking situations."
Getting our students and clients to use their articulation and communication skills outside the therapy environment requires that we begin the process of carryover as soon as the skill is demonstrated in a variety of environments. For children, it might mean saying a fluent word or phrase during a game to get to the next square, or using the correct production of /r/ and /l/ during a short conversation about sports. For adults, the rules of learning after a stroke or traumatic brain injury still may require learning a new skill, like writing the first letter for phonemic placement or using cognitive-semantic linking to ask for coffee.
We need to get more creative to promote carryover across all our clients because of additional sensory, physical, psychological or cognitive difficulties that may impede the process. Charles Van Riper in 1947 wrote that while we cannot rush carryover, we must facilitate its progress.
Pam Marshalla listed some functional ways to promote carryover in children and adolescents, including use of:
- Fill-in sentences or fill-in stories to stimulate spontaneity.
- Idioms to stimulate spontaneity.
- Negative practice to help break the incorrect speech habit.
- Nonsense syllables and words to strengthen the carryover process.
- Over practice to cause a hyper-awareness of the goals of therapy.
- Rapid-fire questions and answers to promote naturalness.
- Reading aloud as a step between word productions and conversational speech.
- Rhyming to capture a client's attention and encourage practice outside of therapy.
- Riddles because they cause a client to combine practice material with creative thinking.
- Shortening productions to encourage naturalness.
- Singing to help children remember their speech work and to encourages effortless practice.
- Spelling out errors to help the client think about what she is saying and how she is saying it.
- Story-telling and re-telling to cause stimulate spontaneity and to cause a breakthrough in carryover.
- Tongue twisters to teach children how to control their articulation.
More on promoting carryover in speech-language treatment can be found on Pam Marshalla's website.
Many of these techniques are useful for adults as well as children. Here are some additional carryover ideas for adults:
- Create a script to practice at a favorite restaurant.
- Use the carryover phrases and substitute other items at a counter deli or a department store.
- Make a to-do list (or grocery list) each day. Practice writing and reading.
- Talk about the programs you will watch.
- Use carryover phrases for conversation, such as, "Hi. How are______?" "What is____?" "I'm _____." "Who is____?"
- Use a calendar and an 8 by 10 dry-erase board to practice drawing,writing and gesturing.
- Use your smart pad, apps, whiteboard, AAC, text-to-speech, and speech-to-text to send emails and do alphabet board, speech tutor and naming practice.
- Play your favorite brain games daily. They will help you with focus, learning, word-finding and memory.
If you encourage your clients to engage in games and functional activities daily, the overall quality of your clients' understanding and speech production will improve because you are encouraging the growth of new neural connections. Your clients are naturally acquiring and using the new skills in their daily lives because they are using them. Becoming more functional can be the most motivating effect of carryover.

Rubio Won't Travel With Wolves To Utah, Denver
MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio will not travel with the team for a two-game road trip to Utah and Denver this week because of back spasms.
Rubio missed the game against Phoenix on Saturday after being unable to get his back loosened up. Coach Rick Adelman says the team is just being cautious with Rubio, who is coming back from a torn ACL in his left knee. Rubio has played in five games this season after making his debut in the middle of last month.
Adelman thinks some of Rubio's back issues could be caused by him overcompensating for a knee that has not yet gotten back to full strength.
Rubio hopes to be ready to play at home on Saturday against Portland.

RE: st: Omnibus effects following xtmelogit with margins

My continued gratitude for hanging with me this long.
If I understand your response correctly, once again I want to try describe my design to make certain that I have done a reasonable job at explaining myself. In hindsight as I explain this to you, my var names make it unnecessarily difficult to understand due to conventions of English (not stats).
Subjects are measured "Pre" intervention... then several months later at the "Mid" point of the intervention... then one last time at the "End" of intervention. I have coded this variable as "time" with three levels. This is not to be confused with time as one reads on a clock--it is NOT the time of day. When I say "time" in this model, my meaning has to do with how long subjects were in the intervention, which in this experiment is measured in months.
At each of these three points in the trial, we gather data. But because our data are difficult to measure (low sensitivity plus high daily day-to-day variability in expression), we takes 10 measurements spanning across 10 consecutive days (i.e. one per day), that together represents a cluster of measurement within each time period (pre, mid, end). Our data are dichotomous yes/no, with lots and lots of zeros, but any "hit" within the 10 consecutive periods is considered informative. We could simply collapse across the 10days into a single "yes-we had at least one hit" variable, but thought better to model the full 10days of data with an HLM-like model.
So subjects are measured 10 days within each of three levels of time (pre, mid, post). We don't care to compare variability among the 10 measurements taken within "time" (pre, mid, post) so much, but we want to incorporate the nesting & variability in our model as we assess changes over the course of the trial (pre, mid, post) by group. One additional but minor point--we have two groups (not three).
Thus I view the 10 repeated observations as nested within "time" because "time" is the wider construct, with three levels of time pre, mid and post separated by several weeks to months. But the 10 consecutive daily samples are collected *within* each level of "time."
So Subject would be the lowest level. Within subject we have three levels of time (pre, mid, post). And with each time we have 10 repeated observations.
Does that not make this a 3-level model?? Or... is the r.notation as you have offered apply here?

Subject: Re: st: Omnibus effects following xtmelogit with margins
Dear Rob
Thanks for that additional information... so, there are really two different variables
that represent a form of "time"... one being *day* (of which there are 10 levels), and one
being *time* of day (of which there are 3 levels). If I have this right, then it seems to
me that *time* is crossed with *day* (because every level of *time* appears with every
level of *day*). So, the way that I am thinking about this as an HLM style model, I would
write this as....
Level 1: Observations within subject
Y = B0 + B1*Time1 + B2*Time2 + B3*Day + B4*cov1 + B5*cov2 + e
Level 2: Subject
B0 = G00 + G01*group + u0
B1 = G10 + G11*group + u1
B2 = G20 + G21*group + u2
Then combining this into a composite model (for estimating in Stata), I would get....
Y = G00 + G01*group +
G10*Time1 + G11*Time1*group +
G20*Time2 + G21*Time2*group +
B3*Day + B4*cov1 + B5*cov2 + e + u0 + u1 + u2
Then, in this fashion the model becomes...
. xtmelogit y i.group i.time#i.group i.day cov1 cov2 >0 ||subj: R.time, nolog
Note how I am formulating this as a two level model, with observations nested within
subject, and that -time- and -day- are both at the same level, at level 1. They way that
your model is formulated, it looks more to me like it is a three level model, with -time-
and -day- each forming their own level. If this was something like time nested within
students, and students nested within schools, I would think of this as a 3 level model,
but I cannot (myself) help but think of your model as a 2 level model (which might be the
lenses I am viewing this through). Maybe others have better lenses to share thoughts?
Best regards,
Michael N. Mitchell
