A Slice of Brooklyn: The Original New York Pizza Tour
I've had a lot on Slice lately about Scott's Pizza Tours, but you know, there's another pizza tour out there, one that's been around for a bit longer and that takes folks through perhaps the best pizza borough* in the city. And that tour, my friends, is Tony Muia's A Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour.
Muia started his tour in 2005 and has been taking pizza-hungry folks around Kings County ever since, mixing stops at Grimaldi's and L & B Spumoni Gardens with spin around neighborhoods such as Bay Ridge and Bensonhurst. It's thanks to Muia that I can point out the house where Joe Pesci's Tommy DeVito character gets whacked in Goodfellas (it's in Bay Ridge) and that I know which pizzeria John Travolta's Tony Manero buys two slices from, eating them as a double-decker, in Saturday Night Fever (Lenny's in Bensonhurst).
Anyway, I went on one of Muia's friends and family tours early on, had a great time, but then didn't really keep up with how he was doing. That's why it's great to see this update on the Slice of Brooklyn Pizza Tour in the New York Post:
A "Today Show" segment helped build buzz, as did word of mouth from enthusiastic tourgoers. Their favorite part is often Muia himself, who with his accent, slicked-back hair and tattooed forearms might seem as exotic to some Middle Americans as an Amish farmer.
These days, instead of sweating empty buses, Muia is juggling his roles as tour guide, marketer, publicist and accountant, while planning to grow his business with additional tours. His first spinoff, a tour of the Christmas lights in Dyker Heights, launched last winter; this summer he'll start a neighborhood tour taking in parts of brownstone Brooklyn and Victorian Flatbush, with a stop at Junior's for cheesecake and an egg cream.
The story does touch on the fact that rabid pizza freaks should be aware that this is a hybrid tour, a necessity after an early downshift from three to two pizzerias: "The change shifted the balance a bit on a pizza tour/Brooklyn tour hybrid that causes occasional confusion for foodies expecting a tasting tour."

|If the Ferengi evolved on a planet where it rains almost all of the time, shouldn't they actually like rain? So why does Quark like Risa's hot sunny weather so much?
Bashir and O'Brien go through a lot of trouble trying to get into Quark's bar so they can retrieve their dartboard. Odo argues mildly against it, but does nothing. Er, isn't this attempted breaking and entering? Isn't that illegal? Why isn't he arresting them? And why not just use a transporter to beam inside? That way you're only entering without breaking, you might get a lighter sentence! You could even beam the dartboard out, thus avoiding both the breaking and entering altogether!

John Wayne, where are you when we need you? We're in a mess over the health care in this here town. We could use you in any of your vast array of personas. Mclintock would be perfect in this situation, or possibly Marshal Rooster Cogburn. Our little old western town is in an awful fix. A new mayor has come to town and wants to change everything. The problem we're having is, first of all, to figure out what he's saying. Then, just when we get it figured out, some of those other politicians that he's always hanging out with demand things to be done their way.
The old town hall was rockin' yesterday when the new mayor gathered the doctor's in the territory into one room and said, "We're gonna fix this mess. I'm gonna make sure all the bad guys are run out of town. Then I'm gonna take care of all the poor folk 'cause I said I would when you all elected me. Now, I know I said I weren't gonna raise taxes but I've gone and changed my mind. You understand, right? I'm just gonna take a mite more from the rich folks 'cause they can afford it. Why should they be allowed to keep all that loot for themselves? Then I might have to come on over to some of the middle class folks and just pick up a bit at their house. They won't mind, 'cause they're always off working, anyway."
It seems, John, that meeting was supposed to make the docs feel better about his notions. He sure enough tried to say all the right things like how he was gonna lighten their load of paperwork. Then he said they'd get paid for all of those emergency visits they aren't getting paid for now 'cause he was gonna sign up everybody in the territory to get free health care. Well, maybe not everybody, maybe just the folks that don't have any. Well, he said the rest of us who have good health care and the insurance to pay for it could just keep on like we are. Basically, he's gonna take care of everything and we don't have to do anything. Well, maybe just one little 'ol thing. We gotta pay for it all.
He didn't really have much to say about the insurance companies because they're usually hanging out at the saloon, raking in their money and hiding it so it's really hard for us common folk to find. If it wasn't for that merry-go-round in the square and that brass ring we've got to grab to get our claim paid, well, heck, we'd be up a creek. In that same saloon is the barkeep, you know him. He's the alcohol and drug pusher in town, otherwise known as the pharmaceutical company. He gives out all them free samples and let's folks get used to the drug then he starts charging them big bucks. Sometimes they can't afford them. That's not the pharmacist/barkeeps problem 'cause he can always find more people to give his free samples to. He gets them out of his shed outback where he keep his free pens, his free luggage and all his other fancy duds and gifts for all the "big shots" in the territory. Sometimes he advertises kind of like by putting up these big signs about his drugs and what all they can do to cure ya'. That's good for him 'cause that makes folks want to try 'em out; that there is the whole idea behind advertising, I figger.
I'll tell you the truth, John, I've got an awful headache from all this jibber-jabber and still can't make heads nor tails of any of it. I know life ain't perfect; but I don't think that's any reason to get all fired up and go jumpin' the gun. Hellfire; our whole territory'll be flat broke. Thanks for letting me jaw at ya', John.

MADDE is a cross compilation environment targeted for application development (although an instance of it has been used for linux kernel (module) compilation).
MADDE core (just environment, without toolchains, sysroot & other tools) is available for the following host platforms:
- Linux (32 & 64 bit)
- Mac OS X (Intel Leopard & up)
- Windows XP (and later)
MADDE core is generally licenced with LGPLv2. Some components (due to their origin) have different (open source) licenses. The 'external' parts (like sysroots) bundled in some MADDE distributions may have other licenses.
MADDE is part of (Nokia) Qt SDK (with targets for Maemo application development) and MeeGo SDK (like above, but targets for various MeeGo devices).
Provided there are suitable (currently gcc) toolchain (on all host platforms one wants to support) and accompanied sysroot, it is easy to add compilation target for many new systems. The configuration file format is easy to understand and new configuration files are used along the old ones when dropped into configuration directory.
MADDE provides packaging tools for creating
- Debian packages (currently hardcoded for arm)
- RPM packages (arch taken from target configuration)
As part of MADDE core, these works in all the above host platforms. Debian packaging is done by ported debian tools taken from Debian Lenny distribution. RPM packaging is done by rrpmbuild tool, written in perl and supporting a part of RPM spec file format.
Due to the variety of supported host platforms, MADDE cannot support configuration tools which compile and execute stuff to determine environment details (such as autotools). When creating new application (those few who are autotools-savvy) cannot resort to this method gaining knowledge of the system. If there are any need to do such things, the options are:
- Rely what C99 provides
- Qmake
- Try compile something and see if compilation succeeds
- Compose source that compiles to object file where information can easily be parsed out using strings and other shell tools (FIXME: genetypes.sh as example, c99 obsoletes this)
For now, more information about MADDE can be found on these locations:
Use 'madde maemo' and 'madde meego' search terms in your favorite search engine to find more pages.

Rox mum on De La Rosa, rotation
LOS ANGELES – The Rockies' postseason plans remained shrouded in mystery and injury.
Starter Jorge De La Rosa spent extensive time in the training room today, trying to rehab his strained left groin. Manager Jim Tracy said he would know more about De La Rosa's status after today's game against the Dodgers.
The educated guess here is that Ubaldo Jimenez will start Game 1 in Philadelphia on Wednesday, Aaron Cook would start Game 2 on Thursday and then De La Rosa would pitch Game 3 in Denver – if he's healthy. That's still a big if.
For today's game, both Dexter Fowler and Ian Stewart are in the starting lineup against the Dodgers, but neither of them feels very good.
"I kind of feel like I'm getting the flu, kind of achy," Fowler said.
Nevertheless, he and Stewart will play today.
"We've got a lot of guys feeling punky in there right now," Tracy said. "We'll just have to play through it."
Yorvit Torrealba's tight hamstring feels much better today. He won't play today in the regular-season finale, but should be fine for Wednesday's Game 1.
Both Jason Marquis and Jason Hammel will pitch today in limited action. Tracy won't use his bullpen stalwarts.
The Rockies will fly home to Denver after today's game, get a chance to see their families, the fly to Philadelphia on Monday.
On the lighter side … L.A. residents were no doubt taken aback when the Rockies checked into their Century City hotel on Thursday. Per custom, the Rockies' rookie had to dress up in women's clothes for the flight from Denver to L.A. The theme this time around was female superheroes. So the rookies checked into their hotel dressed as Cat Woman and Wonder Women, complete with 5 o'clock shadows.
Here are today's lineups:
2B Eric Young Jr.
CF Dexter Fowler
LF Seth Smith
1B Jason Giambi
C Chris Iannetta
RF Brad Hawpe
3B Ian Stewart
SS Omar Quintanilla
RHP Jason Marquis
LF Juan Pierre
2B Orlando Hudson
FC Matt Kemp
RF Andre Ethier
3B Casey Blake

Via nwi.com:
I've actually done research on students who are learning game design and about games," said Jose Zagal, a game development professor at DePaul. "And it is quite often the case that they'll have a very narrow view of games."
Jim Galbraith, associate director of collections at DePaul's library, hopes the collection will draw the wider student body while supplementing what's taught in game design and computer science classes.
You can read the rest of the article here. Is your library doing something like this? As a big advocate for video gaming in libraries, I'm happy to see universities starting to collect games. I'm most excited about seeing how their retro gaming collection develops.
Also, made sure you check out their sidebar "Video Game Canon" discussion. Do you agree with their selection of games in the Video Game Canon? What would you add? Take away?

Tim Cahill, the Australia striker, scored a goal against the Netherlands.
Cahill answered with the goal about a minute after the Netherlands scored.
AP: Netherlands sticks with proven system vs Australia
PORTO ALEGRE, Brazil (AP) — Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal has stuck with the system he deployed in the 5-1 opening win over World Cup champion Spain, naming an unchanged starting lineup to face Australiain a World Cup Group B match on Wednesday.
The Dutch will start with five defenders, three midfielders and Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben up front.
It worked with great effect last week, suffocating the Spanish attack and then swiftly countering. Van Persie and Robben each scored twice against Spain.
Defenders Ron Vlaar and Daley Blind both overcame minor injury scares to start.
Australia made two changes to the lineup that lost 3-1 to Chile, both forced by injuries.
Ryan McGowan comes in for fullback Ivan Franjic, and Matt McKay moves in to the midfield to replace Mark Milligan, who was ruled out of the match on Tuesday.
Australia: Mat Ryan, Ryan McGowan, Jason Davidson, Matthew Spiranovic, Alex Wilkinson, Matt McKay, Mile Jedinak (captain), Mark Bresciano, Matthew Leckie, Tommy Oar, Tim Cahill.
Netherlands: Jasper Cillessen, Daryl Janmaat, Daley Blind, Bruno Martins Indi, Ron Vlaar, Stefan de Vrij, Nigel de Jong, Jonathan de Guzman, Wesley Sneijder, Arjen Robben, Robin van Persie.

itwbennett writes "Score 1 for online privacy. The Federal Trade Commission and online ad firm Epic Marketplace have reached a settlement that will bar Epic from using browser history sniffing technology. According to the news report, 'The history sniffing allowed Epic to determine whether a consumer had visited more than 54,000 domains, including pages relating to fertility issues, impotence, menopause, incontinence, disability insurance, credit repair, debt relief, and personal bankruptcy. Epic used the tracking to send targeted ads related to several health issues, the FTC said.'"

Riccardo Tisci Takes Givenchy Intimate for Fall 2010 Couture
Riccardo Tisci Takes Givenchy Intimate for Fall 2010 Couture
>> Riccardo Tisci transitioned from full-on runway to intimate presentation for his Fall 2010 couture collection, shown yesterday in a gilded Paris apartment — only ten looks' worth, as opposed to 23 looks last couture season. The impetus for the change? "I've been at Givenchy for five years now, and I've found my feet, and know what I'm doing much better. People know what Givenchy is now, and it's selling. For couture, I think it's better to show fewer things like this, which are more special, and can be seen properly . . . My style is about the little details. If a dress goes by with the kind of speed of my shows, you might go, 'Oh, there's a lace dress.' You won't see why it took 1,600 hours to make. And this way, I can meet people and talk to everyone. That's good, too." The presentation was reportedly more expensive than runway shows have been in the past for the brand.
The collection was inspired by Frida Kahlo and her three obsessions — religion, sensuality, and human anatomy — paired with degrade, lace, and fringe — three finishes Tisci considers his signatures. One catsuit featured a Swarovski crystal skeleton that took 1,600 hours to make, and another gold lace dress clocked in at six months of work.
Speaking of putting in hours, Tisci has apparently joined Rick Owens and Marc Jacobs in their workout obsessions — he's "a kick-boxing fanatic," according to Hilary Alexander: "Every morning, for an hour!"

As time
began to slip away for the Chicago Fire Academy U-15/16 team on Monday, players
began to realize that they might come up a bit short of reaching their goal. And
that goal was to be one of the eight teams in their age group to reach the Development
Academy finals, which will take place late nextweek in Carson, California. But just as they've done during the last part of the season to earn a spot in
the playoffs, the Fire didn't give up when faced with a little adversity.
So despite finding themselves down 1-0 to FC Westchester entering the 70th on their final pool match in Browns Summit, North Carolina, things weren't over. That point was driven home during the next five minutes as Chicago responded with a pair of scores from Victor Pineda to rally for a 2-1 victory at Bryan Park. As a result of the victory, the Fire (14-5-10) finished with a 2-0-1 mark to win Pool A over Arsenal FC, which went 2-1, with that loss coming against the Fire.
Chicago remained unbeaten in its last 12 matches, improving to 6-0-6 since suffering its last loss, a 1-0 defeat to the Kansas City Wizards on May 15.The Fire entered the day needing either a win or a draw coupled with a tie or loss for Arsenal, who wound up winning its match over the Concorde Fire. That forced Chicago to rally for the victory, which didn't come easily against an FC Westchester squad that also had a chance to move on entering the day.Thanks to the late heroics, the Fire become the first U-16 squad from the Academy to earn a spot in the national finals, which consists of eight teams.
Joining the Fire in Group 1 at the Home Depot Center will be Frontier Division rival Sockers FC, which beat host Greensboro on Tuesday to also advance.The other two teams in that group are DeAnza Force and DC United. CASL Chelsea FC, Internationals, Baltimore Bays Chelsea and Cal Odyssey round out the field.
Now the U-16s wait to see if they'll be joined by the Fire U-18s, who need to beat the Baltimore Bays Chelsea on Tuesday morning to earn a trip to nationals. Chicago dominated the attack during the second half but were frustrated in its attempts to get the ball past FC Westchester keeper Alex Kapp. The Fire's big opportunity finally came during the 71st minute when Pineda lined up for a corner kick and then sent it directly toward the net. Kapp tried to punch the attempt away but instead the ball went into the net and suddenly things were tied and the Fire had much-needed momentum.
In the 75th minute, Keaton Albert sent a nice pass upfield toward Pineda, who got past defenders and started to head toward FC Westchester's net. As Kapp came out of the net to try to stop him, Pineda went by and suddenly found himself with a potential open-net goal to put his team ahead.But the ball didn't cooperate and kept bouncing around, forcing Pineda to take some time to gain control of it before connecting from close range. After that, it was up to the Fire defense to keep the New York squad from coming back with an equalizer that would have dashed their renewed hopes.
FC Westchester did have one good opportunity in the late going when a long free kick went into traffic before a shot eventually sailed over the net. The Fire had plenty of good chances throughout the final half but were just a bit off on several of them while Kapp also came up with some big stops. Henrik Egly got things started with a corner kick that was deflected away and on the subsequent corner, Elliot Borge was stopped on a close attempt. A few minutes after that, Pineda sent a pass forward to Luis Medina, but the FC Westchester keeper disrupted the play to halt a possible scoring try.
Just over 10 minutes into the new half, Kapp came out of the net to make a stop up top but Pineda was unable to head a shot attempt into an open net. Anthony Torres and Luis Medina were stopped on shot tries a short time later and then Patryk Ruta was wide on a header before sending a liner to Kapp.
FC Westchester only managed one good shot during that early stretch of the final half but Fire keeper Sam Euler hauled in a liner from David Alemany. It was a different story in the opening half, however, as the New Yorkers hoped to take advantage of a possible Fire letdown after the Arsenal match.
Euler had to come up with some big saves during the early going but he wasn't able to stop a shot attempt from Andres Penfold during the 13th minute. Meanwhile, the Fire struggled offensively in the first half and had few good chances to get the equalizer as FC Westchester took a 1-0 halftime lead.

Dwyer scored a pair of second-half goals in his Ivy debut at Brown (Gil Talbot).
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The Harvard men's lacrosse team took a two-goal lead into the fourth quarter, but a 4-0 run put Brown over the top as the Bears stole a victory from the Crimson Saturday night, 11-9.
Devin Dwyer broke a 7-7 tie in the third quarter off a feed from Peter Schwartz and found Ryan Stevens for a score less than one minute later, putting the Crimson in front 9-7 heading into the final frame. Brown's Kylor Bellistri netted the equalizer with 9:06 remaining, however, and the Bears tacked on two more scores for the final two-goal margin.
Dwyer finished the night with four points on two goals and two assists. Alex White also scored two goals while Stevens added a goal and an assist.
Harvard (2-3, 0-1 Ivy League) won 19-of-24 face offs and dominated the X thanks to a 15-of-20 performance by Rick Molé. Gabriel Mendola was 4-of-4 on face offs and was credited with a career-high 10 ground balls. Stevens added two caused turnovers and three ground balls, while Harry Krieger made nine saves in goal.
Brown (4-1, 1-0 Ivy League) was led by Henry Blynn's five points (2g, 3a) as Jack Kelly made 15 saves in the victory, including five in a perfect fourth quarter. Harvard held a 35-30 edge in shots and a 34-25 margin in ground balls, but was successful on just 15-of-21 clear attempts while the Bears converted 22-of-25.
Brown got on the scoreboard first but Harvard answered back with three straight goals to take a 3-1 advantage in the first. Carl Zimmerman tallied the equalizer at the 9:26 mark following a Stevens caused turnover, and Daniel Eipp put the Crimson on top for the first time, 2-1, as Dwyer found him diving through the defense toward the crease. Sean McDonagh gave Harvard the two-goal margin with just 10.6 seconds remaining in the frame, slipping a shot past the Kelly while falling to the turf.
White made it a 4-0 run off a feed from Zimmerman as the Crimson went on top, 4-1, moments into the second quarter. Jack Walker hooked up with Brendan Newman to maintain the three-goal margin after a Brown score, but the Bears tallied three quick goals to even the game at 5-5 with 8:19 remaining in the half. Dwyer gave the lead back to the visitors off an assist by Peter Schwartz, and White's second goal of the quarter put Harvard back on top by two, 7-5, before intermission.
Blynn cut Browns lead in half coming out of the break and three penalties against Harvard gave the Bears three opportunities to even the score on the man-advantage. The Crimson was able limit Brown to just two shots during the 2:30 of penalty time, but Nick Piroli scored in an unsettled situation after all the penalties had expired to bring the game to a 7-7 tie. Dwyer came up with the pivotal goal once again before Stevens gave Harvard the two-goal edge heading into the fourth.
Harvard will be back in action Tuesday, March 19 as it hosts Bryant at 7 p.m. at Soldiers Field Lacrosse Stadium.

House of Fëanor
The House of Fëanor were the cursed descendants and followers of Fëanor, the eldest son of Finwë and his spouse Míriel. Fëanor was one of the greatest, and certainly the most skilled, of the Noldor, but his burning anger at the loss of his Silmarils led him to commit acts that would greatly diminish the influence of his house among his people. As the heir of Finwë, Fëanor and his descendants should have inherited the High Kingship of the Noldor, but because of Fëanor's rash acts, the lordship of the Noldor passed to his brothers: Finarfin in Aman, and Fingolfin in Middle-earth. For this reason, the members of the House of Fëanor are referred to as the Dispossessed.
The history of the House was a woeful one, and most of its members met an early end. Fëanor and six of his seven sons perished before the end of the First Age. His second son Maglor survived beyond the War of Wrath, wandering the shores of Middle-earth, but his fate is unknown. The last of the House was Fëanor's grandson Celebrimbor, the son of Curufin, who had a great part in the making of the Rings of Power, and was tortured to death by Sauron during the Second Age.

A Goal Achieved... A Reason for Pride In 1896 Frank Broakerof New York State became the first certified public accountant in the United States. Since that time hundreds of thousands of men and women have studied and worked for years to earn the privilege of taking a rigorous four-part, three-day, 191/2 hour examination. Their goal and the reward of those who pass: the right to place the initials "CPA" after their name. Certification is official recognition that an accountant has achieved the levels of competence and proficiency demanded of those who want to call themselves certified public accountants. Like the licensed physician and practicing attorney, the CPA is a professional who must not only take and pass required college courses but also satisfy a "jury of his peers" that he is competent to practice his profession. For the applicant who has satisfied the educational requirements (in addition to several years of actual work experience in some states) the CPA test is the final hurdle. Behind the more obvious mechanics of the test—which covers accounting practice, accounting theory, business law and auditing — is the complex structure consisting of national organization, state professional groups, practicing CPAs and educational institutions whose efforts are required to produce semi-annual examinations that reflect the changing requirements of U.S.—indeed international —business, law and finance. And overshadowing it all is a rich tradition and heritage stretching back more than 75 years. All U.S. CPA exams today are developed and administered by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), first incorporated in 1887 as the American Association of Public Accountants. At the end of its first year the AAPA, designed to foster more respect in this country for the profession of accounting and modeled after the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, had a membership of 25 fellows and seven associates. Today the AICPA has some 90,000 members. In 1893 the New York Board of Regents granted a charter for incorporation to the New York School of Accounts, the first school of accounting in the United States. Seven pupils enrolled in the first class. Three years later, in 1896, New York became the first state in the Union to establish legal requirements for anyone wanting to call himself a CPA: He had to be a citizen of the U.S., a resident of New York or doing business in that state, of good moral character, and he had to possess a university certificate attesting to the fact that he had the qualifications to practice as a public accountant. If the "good moral character" requirement of the 1896 legislation has a quaint ring to it, we might point out that today some 40 states require CPA candidates to take and pass supplementary ethics exams before they can be certified. A CPA found guilty of unethical practices can lose his certification, as can one convicted of criminal charges. Charles Waldo Haskins, who with Elijah Watt Sells founded Haskins & Sells in 1895, took an active interest in passage of the 1896 Act to Regulate the Profession of Public Accountancy in New York. Mr. Haskins qualified as a CPA under the Act and was named first president of the Board of State Examiners of Public Accountants, which was established by the Act. Mr. Haskins also played a key role in the founding in 1900 of the School of Commerce, Accounts and Finance of New York University and was its first dean. In 1917 the AAPA changed its name to American Institute of Accountants and on June 14 and 15 of that year held its first CPA examinations. One hundred twenty-one candidates sat for that test, and 93 passed. (More than 30,000 candidates sat for the November 1972 exams.) Most state accounting laws were passed between the turn of the century and the early 1930s. It was not until 1952 that the last of the states- Pennsylvania-adopted the AICPA uniform exam for CPAs, and it was only in 1962 that New Jersey became the final state to utilize the advisory grading service of the AICPA. As presently structured the CPA exam is unique: It is a national examination whose results are generally accepted in 54 jurisdictions, including the 50 states, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Virgin Islands. Earlier, individual states had administered their own CPA tests, a system far more expensive than the present arrangement. Even more serious were the certification problems that sometimes arose because of differences in state tests and requirements for CPAs moving from one state to another. One of the major advantages of the present system lies in its making the passing of one standardized test mandatory for anyone anywhere in the country who wants to be a CPA. Exactly how does the CPA exam system work? If the AICPA forms the broad organizational base for the program, the 16-member Board of Examiners is the operational g roup charged with development, administration and grading of each test. Members of the Board, about half with primary interests in the practicing profession and the other half from the academic world, are selected by the president of the AICPA and serve a three-year term. Roughly half the Board's membership is made up of current or former members of state boards of accountancy. All are CPAs and usually chosen because of a particular field of expertise, such as taxes, law, statistics or computers. Because of the important relationship that must be maintained between the profession and the college and university system, most of the practicing accountants on the Board have some association with the academic world. The Board of Examiners meets twice a year and works at least three examinations in advance, a procedure demanded by the complex logistics involved in giving the same exam to more than 30,000 people simultaneously in 93 cities across the United States and in Puerto Rico. (Some 50,000 copies of each exam are printed and the security that must be maintained would give nightmares to the head of security at Fort Knox.) After the tests are taken, all papers-identified only by serial number to guarantee anonymity of the candidate and impartiality of the grader-are forwarded to AICPA headquarters in New York City for grading, which is done by

Cannabis Oil
If you prefer cannabis oil instead of cannabis butter, here is the recipe for marijuana oil that is slightly easier to store than the butter version as you would not be requiring a fridge or freezer.
48 ounce bottle of Canola cooking oil
A metal wire strainer
One large cooking pot
A quarter pound brick weed or 1 ounce of nuggets
A large funnel that fits in the cooking oil bottle
Empty the entire oil bottle into the large cooking pot.
Heat on medium flame until the oil is hot (not boiling), which would be about 200 degrees.
Crumble up cannabis into shake and pour the seeds, stems, and everything of it into the pot.
Stir well for every 10 minutes or so on for the next two hours. It is important for you to NOT allow the mixture to boil and it should be kept hanging just below the boiling point or the oil will burn and taste bad.
The oil may appear greenish or a little brown after two hours, which is very much normal and shows that the resin has been properly extracted from the leaf products.
Allow the oil to cool itself for half an hour.
Now, carefully strain the marijuana oil through the strainer.
Pour the oil into an equally-large container and squeeze the weed well to get all the cannabis cooking oil out.
Now, funnel the cannabis oil back into the bottle and start cooking the weed brownies.
Use cannabis oil sparingly.

Here is an interesting problem. It looks elementary, but it has taken me some efforts without solving it. Let
$$ h(x) = e^{x^2/2} \Phi(x),\qquad \text{with}\quad \Phi(x):=\int_{-\infty}^x \frac{e^{-y^2/2}}{\sqrt{2\pi}} dy. $$
The question is whether the function $h(x)$ is monotone increasing over $R$? Are there some work dealing with such function?
It seems a quite easy problem. By taking the first derivative, we need to prove that
$$ h(x)' = h(x) x + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}} \ge 0. $$ which again, not obvious (for $x<0$). Some facts, that might be useful, are:
$$ \lim_{x\rightarrow -\infty} h(x) =0, \quad \lim_{x\rightarrow -\infty} h(x)' =0. $$
Thank you very much for any hints!

Good morning, my name is Leo Bister, I am the Opportunity flight director today. I will tell you a little bit about Opportunity. Yesterday, we did some driving. We had been at a place where we drilled two RAT-holes. We finished at that site, backed up, and did some driving around our outcrop, which is in the crater where we are currently located in the plains of Meridiani.
The drive yesterday consisted of four segments, ith some imaging done at various locations along the way. We got to within 30 centimers of our intended science target which was a very good day of driving, because we do slip around a bit as we drive on the rocks and so, getting that close to where we intended to be was very good.
So we are at a spot near Big Bend which is our intended science target. What we plan to do today is to use the intrument arm, we are going to put that down on the rock, do some science using our Mossbauer instrument and then we will stow the arm again and drive to the location we intended to go to yesterday. And then tomorrow we will again use the instrument arm to do more science at the Big Bend location. We will be using the Microscopic Imager camera at that location. So that is the plan for Opportunity.
Spirit today is at a place called Middle Ground which is about halfway along its route to the crater Bonneville. And at Middle Ground they found a rock called Humphrey which is very interesting. And the plan today was to do about four hours of RAT-ting, that is drilling a hole in the rock. We got about 20 minutes of RAT-ting done. And we need to determine exactly why the RAT operation stopped. But our plan is to go ahead and do some Mossbauer science and APX science in the hole that we were able to drill, overnight tonight.
Tomorrow the plan is to change some settings of the RAT tool and to try again to get the full four hour RAT-ting operation complete there. We also plan to take a full panorama of that location where we currently are. Following that, in about a day and a half, we will again begin our drive towards Bonneville crater.
Both rovers remain in excellent health and thats it for now. Have a great day.

To combat witness intimidation effectively, you must combine the basic facts with a more specific understanding of your local problem. Only by carefully analyzing your local problem will you be able to design an effective remedial strategy.
The following groups have an interest in the witness intimidation problem and ought to be considered for the contribution they might make to gathering information about the problem and responding to it:
Intimidation can occur at any time, from the point when a criminal incident first occurs to the moment the witness provides evidence in court; hence, it is essential to collaborate with prosecutors, victim advocates, and other stakeholders in analyzing and solving the problem. Because many witnesses drop out of the process before their cases go to court, it is essential to survey witnesses and victims at multiple points in the process so that their responses address all the reasons and issues that deter them from cooperating fully. Finally, police cannot respond effectively to a problem if they do not recognize its occurrence. Police awareness can be increased through training, shift briefings, and police newsletters.[33] Guidance should be offered for spotting signs of intimidation; even something as simple as requiring officers taking statements or interviewing witnesses to ask about intimidation directly can be an effective analytical tool.[34] Unfortunately, training curricula regarding the warning signs and typical behaviors of those who have been intimidated are not well developed.
The Philadelphia District Attorneys Office, Victim Services Division, utilizes a short interview guide to collect relevant facts about intimidation. It includes questions about the intimidator, type of intimidating conduct, and the time and place that the intimidation occurred. A copy of the interview guide is available in Finn and Healey (1996).
The following are some critical questions that you should ask in analyzing your local witness intimidation problem. Your answers to these and other questions will help you choose the most appropriate set of responses later on.
Measurement will allow you to determine the degree to which your efforts have succeeded and may also suggest how your responses can be modified to produce the intended results. In order to determine how serious the problem is, you should measure the extent of your problem before you implement responses; in that way, measuring the problem after responses have been implemented will allow you to determine whether your solutions have been effective. All measures should be implemented in both the target area and surrounding areas. (For more detailed guidance on measuring effectiveness, see the companion guide to this series, Assessing Responses to Problems: An Introductory Guide for Police Problem-Solvers.)
The following are potentially useful measures of the effectiveness of responses to witness intimidation:
The following may offer an indirect indication that the situation is improving:
The Savannah Police Department established a witness protection program with the goal of reducing the number of intimidation incidents. The number of incidents initially increased because police began to ask all victims and witnesses if they felt afraid or had experienced intimidation, rather than relying on victims and witnesses to initiate the discussion (Goldkamp, Gottfredson and Moore 1999).

MC, maybe you can join the team in 09?
Harry,I submitted my status on the 7 summits on the link you provided me. I know, I know, there was a lot of debate and questions on this forum, when I climbed Vinson last December 2006, whether I finished the 7 summits or not. I wanted to wait until i finish my website www.7ContinentSummits.com until I discuss it with the world.In my opinion, there are 3 versions of the 7 summits: Carstensz and Kosciusko have been accepted for 20 years now and should still be accepted. but there is a third version that I think should be accepted: Mt Wilhelm in Papua New Guinea.

Wood chisel basics
You may not need one often, but when it comes time to carve out a recess for a hinge or strike plate, nothing beats a razor-sharp chisel. We'll show you basic chiseling techniques and sharpening tips so you'll be ready for any chiseling task with a woodworking chisel set.
Start with a new sharp 3/4-in. chisel for all-purpose use. (Keep your old dull chisel handy for jobs like cutting nails or scraping caulk.) Buy one with an impact-resistant plastic handle. You can pound on these with a hammer without damaging them. Good-quality chisels don't cost much, and if you have a little extra cash, buy three—1/2-in., 3/4-in. and 1-in.—for a good starter set.
Even new chisels need sharpening. Polish the machine marks from the first 1 in. of the back of the chisel and hone a bevel on the face. (See "Sharpening Basics" below.) Put your chisels in a sock or a special canvas roll between uses to protect the cutting edge.
Technique 1: Mortise cuts
Photo 1: Mortise cut
Face the bevel down. Push or tap the back of the chisel to remove thin slices. Control the depth by raising and lowering the handle.
Start recesses or mortises by outlining the area with a sharp utility knife or by making a series of shallow chisel cuts perpendicular to the surface. Skip this step and you risk chipping wood outside the mortise. Then remove thin slices by tapping the chisel with a hammer, bevel side down as in Photo 1, to carve out the wood inside the perimeter.
Chiseling with the grain can sometimes have disastrous results. If the grain runs deeper into the wood, it'll direct the chisel too deep. Stop and chisel from the opposite direction if you feel this happening.
Technique 2: Paring cut
Photo 2: Shave the wood
Pare thin slices of wood to flatten the bottom of an open recess. Keep the back of the chisel flat on the wood. For easier slicing, pivot the chisel as you cut to move the blade in an arc.
If the recess is open on one side, like a hinge mortise, flatten the bottom by paring off thin slices with the back, unbeveled side of the chisel held flat to the wood (Photo 2).
In general, when you're shaving into a piece of wood, face the bevel down (Photo 1). When you're flattening a cut and have access from the side, face the bevel up and hold the back of the chisel tight to the surface (Photos 2 and 5)
Technique 3: Chopping cut
Photo 3: Remove chunks of wood
Chop out large Amounts of wood by slicing off small amounts with each cut. Strike the chisel with a hammer and chop down about 1/2 in. Then chisel from the end to remove the piece before continuing. Your chisel must be sharp for this cut.
Caution: Wear safety glasses.
Set the chisel alongside one cut edge and strike it sharply with a hammer to remove wood from notches. This isn't fine work; the cut will be hidden by another board.
Technique 4: Chop and pare
Photo 4: Chisel a dado
Cut a groove, or dado, by first sawing along both edges to the desired depth. Then break out the wood in the middle with your chisel. Space the chisel cuts about 1/2 in. apart.
Photo 5: Fine-tune the dado
Smooth and flatten the bottom of the dado. Keep the back of the chisel flat to the bottom of the groove. Work from both ends into the center to avoid splintering the edge.
Chisel out dadoes and other more precise joints a little at a time with a series of shallow cuts rather than driving the chisel too deep (Photo 4). Use a hammer or mallet for rough work or press with the heel of your hand for lighter cutting chores or finer cuts.
Technique 5: Scraping
Photo 6: Scrape a glue joint
Scrape glue joints or other imperfections from wood projects by holding the blade at a right angle to the wood with the back of the chisel facing you. To remove thin shavings, support the blade with your fingers and press down while you draw the chisel toward you.
Scraping requires a perfectly flat, sharp edge. The chisel tip should scrape cleanly without leaving scratch marks in the wood.
Woodworking Chisel Set Sharpening Basics
Old chisels with nicked or rounded tips will need to be reshaped. Use a belt sander or grinder to remove nicks and shape the chisel to a 25-degree angle. If you're using a grinder, dip the chisel in water every two or three seconds to prevent the tip from overheating and turning blue. If this happens, the chisel won't hold an edge for long.
Next, polish the back of the chisel by rubbing it back and forth over progressively finer wet/dry sandpaper, pressing the back perfectly flat to the paper. For all sharpening, a good progression of paper is 120, 220, 400 and 600 grit.
Finally, set the honing guide to hold the chisel at a 30-degree angle to create a "secondary bevel" and run through the grits, starting at 220. Lightly glue the wet/dry sandpaper with spray adhesive to a piece of 1/4-in. glass with smoothed edges. Roll the chisel back and forth over the sandpaper until a burr forms on the back of the blade. Turn the chisel over and stroke it flat on the sandpaper to remove the burr. Then move to a finer-grit paper and repeat the process.

Colorado State DE Nordly Capi named to All-MWC first-team
He might have started the season in anonymity, but Colorado State defensive end Nordly Capi didn't end it that way.
The sophomore, who terrorized quarterbacks all season long, was named to the Mountain West Conference first team today.
Capi was one of the nation's best pass rushers, finishing the year with 10 sacks and seven forced fumbles. His sack total tied for eighth in the nation. His forced fumble total was second in the nation, only to Illinois' Whitney Mercilus, who had nine.

English shell peas are in and I am going a little overboard with them, but they are never so good as they are right now. I just bought about six pounds (in the shell), to put up numerous ways: frozen as a crema, blanched and frozen whole, and canned in the pressure canner. The thing about peas is the sugar starts to convert to starch as soon as they are picked, so for best results, process them immediately. If you can't, then shell the peas and blanch them for a couple of minutes in boiling water, drain and refrigerate. This stops the natural degrading process and helps your peas retain their sweetness. (If you plunge them in ice water after blanching they'll do a better job of retaining their bright green color as well.) The peas will hold in the fridge for a few days, until you are ready to either cook them or put them up.
I wrote about pea cream last year and now it is a part of my annual repertoire. This year I have produced numerous dishes with it; cheese ravioli with pea cream and grated parmesan cheese, skirt steak marinated in homemade horseradish, seared and served with pea cream, ditto lamb chops, spaghettini with mussels and pea cream, cold roast chicken with pea cream and Greek yogurt, swordfish cooked with vinegar and pea cream, poached eggs on an English muffin with pea cream, scallops with pea cream, spaghetti with asparagus and pea cream, grilled salmon fillet with pea cream…all very springy and fresh and tasty. I'll post some of these recipes next time. But first…
Pea cream freezes well, as do peas in general. They can well, too. Here's how I've been putting them up.
Pea Cream
Makes 2 half-pints
2 cups shelled English peas
¼ cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons garlic
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or fresh mint
Boil the peas in water over a medium high heat for about 5 minutes, until tender. Drain and dump into the container of a food processor. Add the remaining ingredients and puree—you can make it smooth or slightly chunky. Also, you can add more or les of any of the ingredients—this recipe is flexible!
Pour into a freezer jar or container and freeze for up to one year.
Frozen Peas
Blanch the peas for about 1 minute in boiling water over a medium high heat. Drain and dump out onto a cookie sheet and cool in the refrigerator, then transfer to the freezer. Freeze until hard, a couple of hours. Then transfer the peas to a freezer baggie, container or jar. Frozen peas hold for 1 year. These are great to dump into soups and stews in the winter.
Canned Peas
I add some of the ingredients that I like to use with cooked peas, like mint and white wine. You can substitute lemon juice for white wine (add a scant tablespoon per pint), or thyme for the mint. The flavor of garlic tends to wash out when you pressure can it, so I'll add fresh garlic when I warm up the peas to serve them. Use these as a quick winter side dish. Warm them up with butter and minced garlic.
Makes 2 pints
4 cups peas, shelled
6 tablespoons white wine
2 teaspoons salt
4 to 6 mint leaves
Wash the peas. Have ready two very clean pint jar and bands, and new lids that have been simmered in hot water to soften the rubberized flange. Pour the peas into pint jars. In each jar add 3 tablespoons of white wine, 1 teaspoon of salt and 2 to 3 mint leaves. Cover the peas with boiling water, leaving about ½ inch headroom. Place on the lids and screw on the bands fingertip tight.
Process the jars in your pressure canner as per the instructions of your individual canner at 10 pounds of pressure for 40 minutes at sea level for a weighted gauge canner and 11 lbs of pressure for a dial gauge canner. If you are using a dial gauge canner, add 1 lb of pressure for every 2000 feet of altitude above 2000 feet. If you are using a weighted gauge canner, set the gauge to 15 lbs for any altitude over 1000 feet.
Allow the pressure to come down, and open the lid of the canner away from you to avoid getting hot steam on your face. Remove the jars—they will still be boiling. It's okay. Let the jars cool on a rack for about 6 hours. The peas settle nicely into the jar, and should look quite plump, though the color will be washed out. I tried adding Fruit Fresh to retain the bright green color but it doesn't make any difference.
When cool, check the seals and store in a cool dark place. Refrigerate after opening.

What is streaming audio and can I do it?
Posted by on 22 December 2010 09:48 AM
Streaming audio enables a person to listen to audio at the same time it is downloading. True streaming technology adjusts the the bit rate of the audio to match the listeners connection speed. True streaming requires special streaming server software that is rather expensive. OurChurch.Com does not offer true streaming.
In most applications pseudo-streaming is adequate. Pseudo-streaming does not adjust the bit rate of the audio but does enable the listener to begin listening to the audio file immediately as the audio is downloading. In fact, when most people think of streaming audio, this is pseduo-streaming is what they are looking for.
Pseudo-streaming is accomplished by creating and linking to a little text file that points to the audio file. More information about setting up pseudo-streaming is included under the quesiton "How do I create an audio file from a CD?"

When I say "crush the iPad," I mean literally.
Because at 18 inches diagonally, the Asus Transformer AiO tablet revealed at Computex this week likely weighs more than three iPads in tablet mode. However, it also showcases what an ideal Windows 8 product might look like, and this product has an interesting twist: In tablet mode, it acts as an Android tablet. Now, getting Windows and Android to play nice is likely a losing game, but what if this product instead ran Windows 8 and Windows RT (the ARM version of Windows 8)? Then it actually could be very interesting.
Let's take another look at the ideal Windows 8 product.
Dual modes
The x86 version of Windows 8 (and I've been running the preview for some time now) has two modes and shifts between them inelegantly. In my opinion, an elegant interface would simply present you with Metro if you wanted to use touch, and present an ordinary desktop if you preferred a mouse or didn't have touch enabled. The interface change would be based on user need or direction.
Instead, the x86 version of Windows currently changes your interface with the application. So if you want to use a legacy product, you drop back to the Windows 7 interface, and if you want to use a Metro app, you are in Metro regardless of which interface you'd actually prefer.
This is kind of the reverse of user centric: The system is making the choices of interface based on what is most convenient for it, and ignoring what is most convenient for the user. Let's say you had a four-wheel drive truck. A good user experience would switch to four-wheel-drive mode when you wanted to drive off-road. A bad one would switch to four-wheel-drive mode when you turned on the air conditioner, which had originally been designed for a Jeep.
The Asus Transformer AiO is designed to boot two operating systems, and appears to shift from Windows 8 to Android when you pick up the display and turn it into a tablet. If you were to replace Android with Windows RT, it would then switch from Windows 8 x86 to Windows RT, giving you a dedicated tablet experience in tablet mode and a PC experience when it is in its docking platform.
You'd have legacy apps in your all-in-one, and a full on appliance-like tablet when it was being a tablet.
Size matters
Now the other issue with regard to converting between a desktop PC and a tablet is size: In a notebook computer, we typically don't like any display under 12 inches. Currently, in a desktop computer, 24-inch monitors are the favorite size. At 18 inches (or substantially larger than the biggest currently successful tablets, which are around 11 inches), this thing is a monster. But if you are using it to create things, it may actually be towards the middle of what is acceptable. It is big enough to do actual work on, and still not so big it can't be carried. The same screen size is currently the top end of the mass market notebooks being sold, and in tablet form, an 18-inch screen could be seen as comparatively light.
Since tablets are often used in bed or on a couch (the two most common places people use the products today), size isn't as critical as it would be if the same device were being used while outdoors or standing. Granted, using an 18-inch tablet as an e-book would likely build up your upper arm strength much more than you'd intended, but for viewing online magazines or other large-format media (like movies), this size could be perfect. Remember there was a time when we thought phones that didn't fold over and fit in your pocked were too big, and now the hot phones have near 5-inch screen sizes. Grab an 18-inch tablet, toss a wireless keyboard in your bag and suddenly you have a portable all-in-one to die for.
Wrapping up
With the iPad as the gold standard, which only has a 9.7-inch display, getting folks excited about an 18-inch tablet could be a stretch. However, bigger can be better. Only by exploring creative ways to do things did we get the iPhone and iPad in the first place. With Windows 8 on x86 being a dual-mode (tablet and laptop) OS, why not explore a tablet all-in-one alternative that has fewer size tradeoffs? Flipping from Windows 8 to Android will be a non-starter, because that is three user interfaces in a world struggling with devices that have two. But if Asus were to replace Android with Windows RT, the company might have something.
Like most of you, I doubt this will happen. But were it to have the right backing, the right software, and the right user experience, bigger could be better. Asus, which is a rapidly rising star, could surprise the market.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – This season has been one of many, many firsts for the Bronco men's tennis team. On Thursday, a few more firsts came about. The Intercollegiate Tennis Association announced its final rankings for the year and the No. 33 Santa Clara men's tennis squad added more program bests. When the ITA released its final singles and doubles rankings, as well as regional rankings, Santa Clara added more program highs to an already splendid season, including a No. 5 finish in the Northwest Region.
In the final singles rankings, Santa Clara had its two highest ranked players ever in a season-ending ranking. Both Kyle Dandan and John Lamble finished in the Top-100.
Dandan finishes his career ranked No. 95 nationally. In his final season as a Bronco, Dandan capped off a phenomenal career by picking up First Team All-WCC singles honors and an Honorable Mention nod in doubles. Santa Clara's No. 1 singles player was ranked as high as No. 68 by the ITA, the highest-ever individual ranking for a Santa Clara player. Dandan played as the Broncos No. 1 singles player all season and picked up huge wins for Santa Clara. The senior continually saw opponents' best players, playing nine ranked opponents during the 2011-12 season. One of his best wins was against Cal Poly's Andre Dome, who was ranked No. 20 at the time.
On the season Dandan was 18-10 as a singles player. In doubles, Dandan appeared most frequently with junior Tom Pham as the No. 2 tandem. The duos 26 career victories puts that at third all-time in school history. Dandan was also First Team All-WCC last year. He is the first player since Lars Nelson in 1999-2000 to be named All-WCC First Team in back-to-back seasons (only two players in school history). Dandan was Honorable Mention his sophomore year.
In the final rankings, Lamble finished as the highest-ranked SCU player ever in a final poll, although Dandan remains the highest in school history. The sophomore finishes the year at No. 77. He had a team-high 25 wins this season, including two marquee wins in the NCAA tournament against then-No. 101 Daniel Whitehead and then-No. 27 Ryan Thacher. During his sophomore year, Lamble cemented himself as one of the Broncos' top players. Playing behind Dandan, Lamble was a mainstay as the No. 2 singles player.
Lamble ended the season with a team-best 25 wins. The sophomore from Saratoga, Calif. jumped into the ITA's singles ranking at No. 123 late in the season. Lamble strung together six consecutive wins during the month of April. For his outstanding play as the Broncos' No. 2 singles player, Lamble garnered Second Team All-WCC singles accolades. At his current pace, Lamble is one of two Broncos on track to break the school's all-time wins record. The Broncos highest ranked Santa Clara player ever to finish a season will take his talents to France this summer. Click here to read more about Lamble's upcoming summer in France.
Santa Clara grabbed more national recognition in doubles. Lamble and Ilya Osintsev finished the season as the No. 68 doubles tandem in the ITA national rankings. Lamble and Osintsev gave the Broncos a youthful No. 1 team that was ranked for a majority of the season. They received Second Team-All WCC honors and were named the WCC Doubles Players of the Month during March.
Regionally, the ITA acknowledged Santa Clara's outstanding season by ranking them as the No. 5 team the Northwest Region.
In the regional individual rankings, Lamble and Dandan again picked up accolades. The two Broncos finished back-to-back. Dandan was ranked the No. 9 player in the region, while Lamble finished at No. 10.
In doubles, Osintsev and Lamble grabbed a No. 8 regional ranking.

Kardashian's engagement ring fetches $749K at auction
Out with the old, right?
Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries got rid of the insane sparkler he proposed with back in 2011 for an equally insane price at auction Tuesday.
The humongous diamond ring was the last lot in the "Magnificent Jewels" auction at Christie's this morning. It fetched $749,000, far more than the auction house's pre-sale estimate of $300,000 to $500,000. (At the time of the Kardashian-Humphries engagement, the ring was estimated at $2 million.)
A Christie's spokesperson revealed in a statement to USA TODAY that the 16.21-carat Lorraine Schwartz bauble "saw active participation in the room, on the phone banks, and from Christie's LIVE. This impressive diamond ring was sought out by two bidders in the back of the room, one online bidder, and was ultimately won by a bidder on the phone."
Kardashian and Humphries got engaged in May 2011, married that August and by Halloween 2011, she had filed for divorce. After years of legal wrangling, the divorce was finally finalized on June 3, 2013 -- just two weeks before she gave birth to her daughter North with Kanye West.
Got all that?
