I haven't been to Burger King in a long while, but if the States implemented the "musical shower" heads that the Japanese experience in their "upscale" Burger Kings, I could be enticed back into the glutinous fold one last time.
Fancy name aside, these showers are pretty simple: Customers plug their iPhone or iPod into a dock, and then they're allowed to listen to their own music. BK installed them as part of a renewed "upscale" push to re-enter the Japanese market, which they had left for a while due to poor sales.
So what's the hook? Well, thanks to the half-sphere above their heads (pictured), customers can listen to their music as loud as they want without disturbing other customers. It's your own Fortress of Solitude, where you can slowly digest those 800 or so calories in peace.
Pretty nifty, and I really see no reason why these private jukeboxes can't migrate to the U.S. [Walkerplus via OhGizmo]

PyConUK 2017
26th -30th October saw the annual gathering of the UK Python community at Cardiff City Hall. The conference is run by volunteers and despite being UK based, attracted attendees and presenters from across the globe. This year, the conference featured data and educational tracks alongside lightning talks, Code Clubs, Raspberry Jams and our very own Micro:bit Python Mini Summit. It was an opportunity to share ideas and see some of the fantastic creations and collaborations happening around Python and micro:bit.
As part of the education track, children were able to work with members of the Micro:bit Educational Foundation, the Raspberry Pi Foundation and the Python Software Foundation to learn new skills and try out combinations of micro:bit, Raspberry Pi, Mu Editor, PiTop, Sense HAT, cameras and speakers. These workshops led on to some of the young people addressing the entire conference with their creations as part of Saturday's lightning talks.
One of the key highlights of PyCon, was the openness, inclusivity and enthusiasm of the community, meaning that those contributing to the event in presentations and lightning talks felt encouraged and valued. Much of what the children said about their programming experiences "we typed a lot of code in and we took a lot of code out!" resonated with software developers of all ages and abilities.
Sunday's Micro:bit Mini Summit was a chance for the team to talk to the community about our first year as the Foundation and to get feedback about the future development of micro:bit. The schedule for the day is available on the PyConUK site and involved talks, discussions and our Show-And-Tell event, which gave inventors an opportunity to bring along their amazing micro:bit creations. Amongst others, we got to play with @SolutionsByDave's Klawsome robots, @uk_baz's huge bluetooth buttons, micropython musical resources from @CorinneWelsh and medibit; a wearable, fast-response aid aimed at supporting epilepsy sufferers and developed by @all_about_code.
Of course, whilst all this was happening there were some amazing talks and demonstrations taking place elsewhere in Cardiff City Hall. In no particular order, the teams highlights include:
- Lessons from combining micro:bits, Raspberry Pi's and TensorFlow A talk by Luke Spademan, who attended the PyConUK kids day last year, and this year had a talk in the main conference track to a packed room!
- Micro:bits and MicroPython in Schools & Clubs A very cool workshop from Sarah Townson, including tips on how to run a successful workshop with primary and secondary students.
- Panel Discussion - Python in Education Chaired by Dan Pope. A great insight about the current educational climate, what have we done well, what can we improve and where can we go from here.
- Keynote: It's not the coding curriculum! Keynote from Professor Tom Crick, reflecting on the computing curriculum, how it is much more than coding.
- NetworkZero: network support for clubs, classes & dojos Following the "zero projects" concept of removing unnecessary complexity for beginner-friendly modules, this library by Tim Golden makes it easier to work with networked machines and introduces networking concepts.
- Using Python in Schools - Students' Point of View Corrine Sherman and a group of students from Bristol Free School, give their own perspective about the teaching of Computer Science in schools.
- Edublocks - Making the transition to Python easierJosh Lowe talks through bridging the gap between block coding and Python.
- Code With Mu Great talk from Nicholas Tollervey and Carrie-Anne Philbin talking about the origin of Mu, why there was a need for it, the philosophy behind its goals and how that affects it's development.
- Bitio Our very own David Whale talked about his library to easily control a micro:bit from Python programs running on a PC.
- Stroop Waffles! Free waffles and counted with micro:bit. 78 stroop waffles were handed out over the whole conference!
And last but not least, our production line of micro:bit sweetie bags, pieced together in the micro:bit team house with support from @LMcUnderwood and @guru. These were then hand delivered to all those taking part in the Education Day, and to those developers who took up our challenge of bringing something to micro:bit Show-And-Tell the very next day!
All in all a brilliantly organised and action packed event for all ages. We'd like to thank all involved with PyCon UK and the community for your continued support in developing Python and micro:bit. Particular thanks to Nicholas Tollervey for burning the midnight oil in the micro:bit team house and inspiring and contributing to our talks on Sunday.
We can't wait to do it all again!

Downloading Yhc
The current development version is available online. Please note that yhc is still not finished, so don't expect a full polished compiler yet!
There are two versions, the stable one and the development one. If you want to contribute to Yhc, we recommend the development one. At the moment, because development is so rapid, the stable version is usually quite out of date.
darcs get http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/darcs/yhc darcs get http://www.cs.york.ac.uk/fp/darcs/yhc-devel
There is a mailing list for general discussion, bug reports etc.
There is also a blog, where development style posts are made. This is probably better for getting a feel of the project.

DALLAS (AP) – The Dallas Mavericks didn't even get to enjoy their first NBA title for an entire year.
Eleven months later, Dirk Nowitzki & Co. are gone. They exited the first round of the playoffs without even winning a game. They were swept by the Oklahoma City Thunder, who overcame a 13-point deficit in the final 10 minutes of Game 4 on Saturday night.
The Mavs now head into a postseason with plenty of questions.
Jason Terry and Jason Kidd are among six free agents. Even coach Rick Carlisle's status is unclear, though general manager Donnie Nelson has said he expects him back.
The Mavs will have some cap flexibility in free agency, and know they need to find help for Nowitzki.

Fiber artist aims for positive emotions
Fiber artist Carol R. Eaton will have her wall art displayed in a show, "Exploration in Fibers," at Kent Memorial Library from Thursday, Nov. 1, through Monday, Dec. 31.
Eaton said working with fabric is a great energy release for her. Her original wall art incorporates painting, stitching and intensely colored fabrics she hand-dyes using the confetti and ice cube techniques.
On Saturday, Nov. 3, there will be a free demonstration for the uninitiated and discussion from 3 to 5 p.m. at the library.
Eaton's themes are influenced by nature and her love of family. She aims for a positive emotional response, and said her work offers viewers the calm, familiar feeling fabric evokes.
"It's a medium we come into contact with every day and feel comfortable touching, feeling and exploring," she said.
During Saturday's free demonstration, Eaton will show both "wet felt" and "needle felt," using fabric and wool roving surface embellishment.
Kent Memorial Library, 32 N. Main St., Kent. Saturday, Nov. 3, 3 to 5 p.m. Free. Exhibit runs through December. 860-927-3761, firstname.lastname@example.com.

THRACE TERRA 2 VER 2.2 is a digital pulse-induction metal detector for detecting deeply buried in the ground metal objects. The device is simple constructed and easy to work with. The detector rewires almost no maintenance other than charging the battery when necessary.
THRACE - TERRA 2 is a professional PULSE-INDUCTION (PI) system which incorporates a large search coil (one-meter by one-meter as standard equipment) for the main purpose of finding large objects at great depths. These detection depths can almost be compared with those of magnetometers, which can detect nothing but ferromagnetic objects. Another great advantage of using the THRACE - TERRA 2 together with the large search coil is being able to cover a large area in a short period of time. The actual search coil is encased in a square plastic frame (PVC tubing) and can be carried by two persons.
Using the PI-principle offers some decisive advantages.
First, the search coil is not part of a resonant circuit as it is the case with VLF detectors and can, therefore, be of almost any size and shape. This is absolutely necessary in order to increase the location depth considerably. In the second place there is a timely discoupling between the transmitting and the receiving phase which makes it possible to work with far greater
transmission power.
A further advantage is that small objects like bottle caps, pull tabs, pieces
of aluminum foil, but also single coins are naturally rejected while using the large search coils.
But still the THRACE - TERRA 2 is an easy-to-operate metal detector: you only have to deal with four simple controls, of which you need just one while normal operation.
Objects are simultaneously indicated by a meter on the screen and by an audio signal, which increases in frequency while approaching the object. The audio response has a very wide frequency range in order to avoid signal saturation when the search coil approaches a very close object. This makes it easy to pinpoint the exact location.
The function of the THRACE - TERRA 2 is divided into two time intervals:
Transmission Phase
A strong duty current is flowing through the search coil about 600 times per second. The linearly increasing current builds up a primary magnetic field which radiates. The current is abruptly cut off after a certain time, so that the primary magnetic field collapses quickly causing so-called eddy currents in the metal object. Strength and duration of these eddy currents depend on the electrical conductivity, size and shape of the object. After a short time delay the search coil is connected to the receiver input.
Receiving phase
The decay of the eddy currents in the object produces a secondary magnetic field, which is radiated by the object. This secondary magnetic field has its effect also on the coil and here induces very low voltages, which are amplified and displayed by a meter and an audio signal. Obviously the detection range has physical limits, because these voltages are extremely weak and can be obscured by external magnetic fields.
THRACE - TERRA2 parts for control
To achieve maximum depth of searching, the device must be set according to this manual. Also make sure that you are not around large metal objects - wire mesh, pipes, cables, lines, etc.
Assemble the search frame and plug the connecting cable to the appropriate connector on the back panel of metal detector.
You will need at least 40 hours of practice to be sure you can really use all of the detectors functions.
You should know that if you havent used before a pulse induction detector, you will need some time to get used to the slower speed with it.
The synchronization work with the frame between the two operators is very important. The one who works with the search frame is responsible for setting the time and the distance between the frame and the land, while the other one has the role of air cushion, he is responsible for making the frame stable.
Normally the frame must be on 20cm. over the ground during operation.

Jay R. Ferguson from 'Mad Men' (aka Stan Rizzo) just keeps getting cuter and cuter — what is it with that guy? Oh right, it's that glorious beard.
Something happened between season five of 'Mad Men' and season six — okay, a lot of things happened on that show between seasons, but what I'm thinking of specifically is Stan's beard.
Stan, played amazingly by actor Jay R. Ferguson, came back for season six in straight-up hippie creative mode with a full-on beard. And for whatever reason, it's made his character better times a million. Anything he says or does now is so much more awesome because he's doing it with that beard on his face.
And gah, don't you just want to cuddle up on it? So cute! Ferguson was particularly in top form in this week's episode, in which a bunch of the guys at the ad agency get high on some sort of wacky stimulant and run around the office like crazy-pants fools.
Also, did you know that Ferguson is a former teen idol? Like, he had photos in Bop and everything. Ferguson starred on the TV show version of 'The Outsiders' and in the series 'Evening Shade.' Chances are, you probably had a crush on him when you were younger.
Go ahead and resume that crush right now.

Tooling Update
Laser-Texturing Machine Works Wonders on Dies, Molds
GF AgieCharmilles, Lincolnshire, IL, introduces the Laser 4000 5Ax, reportedly the largest laser-texturing machine on the market. The five-axis machine adds texture to oversized dies and molds as large as 3 by 4 m, and as heavy as 18 tons. The workpiece remains stationary while the machine's axes move around it. The Laser 4000 5Ax manages 3D distortion of texture and masters texture direction related to part shape.Because of its fully digitized process, the machine allows manufacturers to envision a design, preview it onscreen, and perfectly reproduce it on a workpiece. The machine includes on-board machining strategies to ensure optimal performance and material-removal rate, and accurate reproduction of the intended texture.
With its laser technology, GF AgieCharmilles provides a process that reportedly is faster, quieter and more repeatable than conventional manual and chemical etching processes. And while chemical etching produces only three to five layers, GF AgieCharmilles' laser technology achieves 30 to 50 layers, allowing for greater creativity in part design across a variety of materials, including graphite, aluminum, copper, steel, carbide, brass and ceramics.GF AgieCharmilles: 800/282-1336; www.gfac.com/us

SPECIAL- WEDDINGS- In bloom: Local flower girls are fashion fearless
Who says the only day to be a princess is on your wedding day? For some lucky girls, a walk down the aisle doesn't mean a white dress, vows, or husband at the very end– as a flower girl, all eyes are on you without all the pressure.
But wait– don't flower girls equal stiff white dresses, crying toddlers, and awkward baskets full of fake rose petals? Not so fast! Today's bride knows that modern weddings don't have to follow all the rules– and when it comes to fashioning your bridal party, personality and comfort are the main aesthetic consideration. Gone are the days of bland bridesmaids, uncomfortable brides, and tuxedo cummerbunds, and flower girl attire has quickly followed suit. Creative brides are choosing fashion-conscious, colorful, and dramatic looks for even their tiniest attendants.
"I wanted something that was simple, elegant– and something that truly could be worn again," says bride Jill Miller.
Bride Sharon Shapiro agrees. "I've always loved the innocence and spontaneity that a flower girl brings to the ceremony," she says.
From color-drenched dresses to punky sneakers, flower girl outfits are undergoing a transformation. Seven brides turn the spotlight on the smallest fashionistas in their bridal parties.
Leah Rockwell
Dress: $50, Ann Taylor
Accessories: White faux fur muff; custom-made navy blue sash to match the bridesmaids' dresses; wreath of flowers for hair
February 21, 2009
Westminster Presbyterian Church & Veritas Vineyards and Winery
Jill Miller, the bride: "I found a dress that matched the bridesmaid dresses– I wanted to avoid the traditional white fluffy flower girl attire, knowing it would mean alot to Leah if she instead looked more like the "grown-up" bridesmaids."
Leah walked solo down the aisle before 150 guests dropping flowers before the bride made her appearance, then spent the rest of the night with the ring bearer Will. "She began practicing immediately after we asked her," says Miller. "We bought her an American Girls flower girl dress so that she could practice with her doll as well."
Blair Lovie Scholla
Dress: $47.50, Hand-Rolled Flower Accent Flower Girl Dress, My Girl Dress.com
Accessories: basket with fake flower petals
April 17, 2010
Holy Comforter Catholic Church, Glenmore Country Club
Carolyn Rainville, the bride: "I didn't really care about the specific dress as long as it went with the overall wedding theme– grey and shades of pink. The bridesmaids dresses were charcoal grey and I wanted the flowers to be pink– fuschia was one of the shades."
After choosing her six and eight-year-old nephews as ringbearers for her wedding, bride Rainville found it only natural to choose her 23 month-old niece to be her flower girl. Unfortunately for the ceremony's 190 guests, Blair was "fired" from her duties after a crying fit during the rehearsal. But donning a fuschia dress chosen by her grandmother, the flower girl took to the dance floor the entire reception– a much less scary task.
Lucy Murphy
Dress: $165, JCrew
Accessories: silver shoes
February 20, 2010
McCormick Observatory & 210 West Water Street
Sharon Shapiro, the bride: "I wanted something timeless and simple– it had a pleated sunburst detail down the front that echoed the pleats in the bodice of my dress and also my maid of honor's dress."
Lucy had some strong connections to the bridal party– she's the half-sister to the bride's daughter! Laughing and smiling down the aisle, Lucy relaxed the 100-guest crowd, according to bride Shapiro.
Laena Jeongmin Marraccini
Dress: $40, Nordstroms
Accessories: matching beret and shoes and socks
May 23, 2009
Earlysville private home
Marisa Ellen Marraccini, the bride: "Everyone in our wedding party wore an outfit of their choosing, and as a wedding gift we gave them matching dogwood leaf necklaces and cuff links to wear that were designed and made by my father, Lee Angelo Marraccini. My brother and sister-in-law took Laena shopping and tried to pick out a dress they thought matched our style and personalities– my sister-in-law described their decision process as, 'we tried to choose a dress to match the fun and lively personality of the bride.'"
Laena's job was central to the wedding ceremony of Marisa Marraccini and Aaron Dawson– literally. The guests gathered in a semi-circle to witness the ceremony and Laena walked in front of the crowd, throwing petals in the spot where the bride and groom were to stand. Her dress combined "bright colors, interesting design and comfort," according to bride Marraccini, who wanted her flower girl and niece to be able to actively dance, play, and run throughout the day. Laena spent the ceremony at the feet of the couple, even signaling to Marraccini to help take off her socks and shoes. "I pulled her socks off as our officiant spoke about the meaning of our union– it was an incredibly sweet moment."
Shaylen Raches
Dress: $130, Strasburg Fine Children's Clothing
Accessories: pink and yellow pacifier, pearl bracelet
April 24, 2010
Farmington Country Club
Elizabeth Moga, the bride: "It wasn't important to be 'matchy'– I wanted her mother to choose something that she felt she would be beautiful in!"
Two-year-old Shaylen, the groom's niece, made the 130 guests at Elizabeth Moga's country club wedding laugh as she walked down the aisle with her two older brothers saying, "Uhoh!" as she dropped petals out of her basket.
Lydia Pelton, Hailey Grace Hodson, Lillian & Frances Clark
Dresses: under $100, "designer dresses on closeout from a random google website," according to the bride.
Accessories: black sashes
December 31, 2009
Veritas Winery
Chloe Frey, the bride: "I didn't want their mothers to hemorrhage on something they wouldn't be able to wear very often and would grow out of sooner rather than later."
The bride and groom both weighed in on these flower girls– two were the bride's older nieces and two were the groom's twin younger sisters. Due to the winter weather, the bride wanted to incorporate warmth and comfort into the outfits as well as a "clean and classic" look.
Claire Urmanski, Anne Urmanski, Veronika Witoshynsky
Dresses: $20, Macy's
Accessories: necklaces, glass flower baskets, fresh flower garlands for hair
August 1, 2009
Grace Episcopal Church, Keswick
Victoria Gardner, the bride: "The bridesmaid's attire was 'try to find a white dress.' Since we had the fairly relaxed style of the flower girl dresses, we wanted something to blend. The white flowing fabric was great for a potentially very hot August day."
Armed with the theme of "relaxed elegance," bride Victoria Gardner knew she and her groom wanted their three grandchildren to be involved in their nuptials. Mixing tradition with personality, the wedding party mixed it up when it came to colors– the bride wore a blue vintage dress while the flower girls, junior bridesmaid, and matron of honor wore white.

So my best friend Cari and I decided to do the Holiday Half together as a sort-of Christmas present. It seemed like a good idea at the time... it would be the first time either of us had done this race, it would give us something to train for near the end of the year, and a long sleeved 1/4 zip tech shirt was included in the registration fee (WILL RUN FOR SWAG).
Packet pickup: I liked that they had three days of pickup before the race, at different Foot Traffic locations (Thursday, Friday and Saturday). Since I hate driving into Oregon during the week because traffic BLOWS, I went Saturday morning and it was pretty busy. It seemed a little crowded and hectic in the store, especially since bib pickup and shirt pickup were on opposite sides of the store, and the cash register was in between--"what is this line for?"
Swag: The swag is a long sleeved 1/4 zip tech shirt that fit okay, and a decent medal.
Parking: There isn't much parking near the starting line, and since we aren't familiar with the neighborhood, decided not to waste time driving in circles trying to find a spot. We parked at the huge parking lot and paid $5 for the shuttle to take us to the staring line a few minutes away. Although the parking situation could use a little tweaking (the path of the buses and cars intersected right at the entrance to the parking lot, causing some issues for both sides), the shuttle option worked pretty well. I think they should just include the shuttle cost in the registration cost instead of doing it as an additional cost. Especially since the entry fee was kind of high.
Bag check: This took a little while, despite the numerous volunteers helping. There were just a LOT of people, and given how cold it was, I had to get in line well before the starting time to make sure I'd have my bag checked and be back in the starting area before the race began.
The course: The course was an out and back stretch starting at Adidas, going along Willamette Blvd. past University of Portland, and down to the Saint Johns bridge. It's flat-ish, and fairly pretty. The starting line was a little messy--they kept having us move back for some reason. Out and back courses are good and bad--it's fun seeing all of the runners, but it kind of made the course seem longer. Much of the race is on Portland streets--a little uneven and slanted, which can be pretty rough on your ankles!
The race: I hadn't really trained for a half. I had planned on it, but then started a marathon training plan and was focusing on consistency for my mileage rather than distance at this point. I was pretty sick that morning, and really exhausted. I seriously considered not running, or dropping down to the 5k. I decided to at least attempt the half, and see how it went. There were a LOT of runners doing the half. Fortunately, my friend Tom saw me and asked if he could run with me for a bit. The start was a little crowded but spread out pretty well, considering there weren't corrals or a staggered start, and there were a LOT of runners. For miles 1-7, I was excited that I was on track to easily PR and finish under 2 hours. Unfortunately, at mile 7, my quad strain acted up and I was running but limping about a minute per mile slower than I had been running. I was frustrated and it hurt, but Tom stuck with me and encouraged me the whole way. The last three miles seemed to take forever. I finished in 2:00:11, getting a PR, but not quite finishing under two hours. I'm kind of kicking myself for not pushing myself just a bit harder but my legs were really hurting. I was very relieved when the race was over.
Post-race event: This was pretty fun, but cold. The post race event had a food/beer tent with heating lamps, and an indoor room with vendors, (no food allowed indoors) a photo op area, and first aid/massage stations. There was soup and bread, nut butter, and Deschutes beer. There was supposed to be eggnog and hot cocoa and oatmeal too? There were KIND bars, chips, electrolyte drink, and Zico coconut water as well. We hung around a little while but decided to go somewhere for brunch.
Overall, it was a pretty good race, but it was expensive and there were a LOT of people--it was more crowded than I prefer, from packet pickup to actually running to post-race party. There aren't many December half marathon opportunities, which makes the Holiday Half pretty enticing, but I'm not sure I'd shell out the almost $90 to run it again.

BOTHELL, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--This May Berkshire Hathaway Inc. Chairman and CEO Warren Buffett will add something completely different to his portfolio: the first-ever "Invest in Yourself" 5k fun run. Timed with the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting in Omaha, the inaugural event, on May 5, 2013, will encourage participants to take stock of their health, embrace an active lifestyle and experience Brooks' Run Happy spirit first-hand.
"It's going to be a great weekend for Berkshire Hathaway shareholders, and a 5k will be the perfect complement to the See's Candies, Dilly Bar and Cherry Coke everyone will enjoy while here," said Mr. Buffett. "I'm challenging all of our managers to participate, and I'm anxious to see who the fastest person in our Berkshire Hathaway family is."
The course will lead participants on a scenic route through downtown and historic Omaha and provide plenty of opportunities for spectators to view the race and cheer on participants. Mr. Buffett will fire the starting gun and crown winners at the podium. Brooks' President and CEO Jim Weber will run with an expected crowd of several thousand.
"Brooks' mission is to inspire everyone to run and be active and we are thrilled Mr. Buffett, fellow Berkshire Hathaway companies and the Omaha community will join us for a run on Sunday morning," said Weber. "I look forward to toeing the start line and seeing which managers beat me to the tape!"
Brooks enlisted the help of its longtime partner Competitor Group, Inc.—organizers of the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon Series—to coordinate logistics and bring "Invest in Yourself" to life in Omaha.
In celebration of the race and the shareholders meeting, Brooks created a limited edition Berkshire Hathaway PureCadence 2 commemorative running shoe, featuring an image of Mr. Buffett breaking the tape. Shareholders will be able to purchase the shoe in the Brooks booth at the shareholders expo.
Race registration opens to the public today. For more information about the Berkshire Hathaway "Invest in Yourself" 5k, and to register, please visit investinyourself5k.com.
Media wishing to attend to cover (or participate in) the race should contact Erin Krause at firstname.lastname@example.com or by phone at 425-489-2444.

Rolling and global shutter (CMOS sensors)
Sensors with "global shutter" could be considered the same as CCD progressive scan and are used in most machine vision cameras. These sensors have the advantage that all pixels are exposed simultaneously for a defined period, called the exposure time.
In a "rolling shutter" sensor, the start and end of exposure on each row or column or individual pixel happens sequentially, so all the pixels are not exposed all at the same time. It can take up to 1/frame rate for all of the pixels on the sensor to become active. The effect will be noticed if the object is moving. See image below.
Rolling shutter sensors allow for a pixel to be designed with fewer transistors, reducing cost, and in some circumstances, increasing the well capacity and hence the quality. There are some modes of operation that can be implemented in rolling shutter cameras that give a global effect, e.g. using strobe light.

Andrea Bocelli, the international superstar tenorreturns to Great Performances once again to delight fans with Andrea Bocelli: Love in Portofino, a new concert special in which he puts classical music aside for an evening of international favorites inspired by the breathtaking coastal setting of Portofino, Italy.
The Italian fishing village and upmarket resort is noted for its picturesque harbor and frequent celebrity visitors, as demonstrated by a kaleidoscopic photo montage featuring screen legends Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Eddie Fisher, Elizabeth Taylor, and current personalities ranging from Denzel Washington to Ellen DeGeneres.
With 16-time Grammy-winner David Foster as both music director and keyboard accompanist, Bocelli is also joined by trumpeter Chris Botti. Under the stars, beside the shimmering harbor waters, and with a rapt audience including Paul Anka, Sir Michael Caine, and Italian actress Ornella Muti, Bocelli performs some of the world's most famous love songs, including "Senza Fine," "Quizás, Quizás, Quizás," "Bésame Mucho," "Champagne," "Love Me Tender," and in duet with the late, legendary Edith Piaf, "La Vie en Rose," while his real-life love Veronica Berti looks on adoringly.

K&N Spring Fling 20s Opens to Record Crowd
Last year at the third annual K&N Spring Fling 20s presented by Sparco held at the famed Bristol Dragway, over 450 of the best racers from all over the United States and Canada made this one event the place to be if you're into big time, high dollar bracket racing.
The success of this event over the years has led to this year's opening day race, FTI-sponsored Warm-Up Thursday to host over 500 racers competing for the $12,500 winner's share of the purse.
Beginning with time trials starting at precisely 8:30 am, it took five hours to complete the one and only time trial session. Competitors lined up for the first round beginning with the Spring Fling tradition of running door cars against door cars and dragsters against dragsters until they're down to less than 16 cars.
At 16 cars, there remained racers representing 10 different states. At the round of four, Tommy Plott faced off with Steve Witherow with Plott laying down a .001 reaction time and a 6.314 on a 6.30 dial for the win. In the other half of the semifinal round, Chelsea Spence from Rockville, Maryland took the best of Charlie Patterson with a .019 package for the win.
In the final, Spence was not to be denied; taking the win light from Plott with a .002 reaction time coupled with a dead-on the dial with a "7" to become the first woman to score a win in the history of the K&N Spring Fling 20s. Spence said, "I have to thank Peter Biondo and Kyle Seipel for a great race. I look forward to coming to this event every year."
With this many race cars, attempting to complete the event could potentially cause a problem. But as racers themselves, promoters Peter Biondo and Kyle Seipel have decided to change the program slightly due to the amount of cars entered. Friday's Nitroplate-sponsored $20K to win event will be rolled into Saturday's JEGS-sponsored race making Friday's race a whopping $40,000 to win with the balance of the payout doubled all along the way. Saturday will host Sunday's JEGS $20K to win race. As for Sunday, Biondo and Seipel have decided to host a Racer Appreciation Race with no entry fee and $10,000 to win.
Biondo said, "We've always dreamt this event would get this big but in reality, who could ever had thought it would come to this. We can't thank the racers, our customers, enough and this change in the event is just to show our appreciation."

Pioneer Day, come and gone already. But with a huge influx of family and friends, it was one of the most memorable ever. And lots of fun activities to participate in or observe as a homemade root beer-drinking spectator.
Over 130 runners participated in the annual 5K run at Loyds Lake. This year's version was decided by a sprint-n-lean, executed perfectly by Blanding's Taylor Francom, whose tilt learned from all those cross country state championships put him ahead of Monticello's Daniel Torres by a nose to win with only two tenths of a second to spare.
Sylvia Bedford, a student and cross country and track scholarship runner at Southern Utah University, easily claimed the women's race.
Bailey Goodwine, Brielle Francom, Sylvia Bedford, Aleigh Nebeker, Laurie Randall, and Becky Peterson all claimed their age group titles, though the better part of discretion warns me not to print the age group except for Bailey's 13 and under, and Brielle's 13-18 and possibly Sylvia's 19-29 group.
For the boys, age group winners were, 13 and under, Jed McArthur, Taylor Francom 18 and under, Daniel Torres 19-29, Jake Green 30-39, Ryan Heck 40-49 and Robert Hatch, the over 50 winner.
Fifteen youngsters tried their legs in the one mile run, with Kade Francom winning for the boys and Carlyn Goodwine capturing the girls. Thanks to all those locals and returned locals and relatives of locals for participating in the always delightful race.
Speaking of races, local high school runner Macee Nielson participated in the prestigious Deseret News 10K in Salt Lake City Saturday, besting 76 of the 80 runners in the 15-18 girls division to finish fourth.
Macee's time of 38:11 is about a minute and a half behind the winner, but she bested all the Utah runners except two, most from 4A and 5A schools.
Back to the celebration in Monticello. A big thanks to the Don Palmer Memorial Boxing committee, Danny Palmer, Cole Palmer, Ricky Arthur, and Shadd Christensen, who organized and ran a rousing boxing match highlighted by the girls, with three spirited and... dare I say... dainty boxing matches?
Janessa Bowring and Riley Lyman duked it out first, with Janessa getting the decision. Kamry Arthur, pretending that Shannon Young was her husband, won her match, while Shantel Mussleman triumphed over Susan Benally.
Winners in the boys division were Cole Eldredge, who bested Danny Palmer, Colton Musselman, who after refusing to box his sister, went ahead and beat Jared Hansen, Jimmy Tate over Farrell Dee, Tyler Lee, who beat Jeremy Grisham, Adam Butler over David Boyle, Taj Eldredge's win over Brandon Begay, Kendall Maughan beating Cody Randall and the highlight boys match, Brandon "Goose" Tate, who triumphed over Marcus Montgomery in the battle of the big guys.
Proceeds benefited the Monticello boys basketball team and Coach Maughan and the Buckaroo team heartily thank Palmer et. al. for their generosity and organizational skills.
The Blue Mountain Invitational Fast Pitch tournament disappointed no one, even those who didn't win, just because that's the way it is in Monticello this time of year.
Not even a little rain could stop Silverado, with many players from the old Bayles Exploration team, who triumphed with Steve Blackie leading the way by beating the undefeated Wasatch Iron team twice in a row.
The Hideout Golf Club reports one of the biggest weekends of golf ever with the course in the best condition ever.
Remember this coming weekend is the annual Hideout Shootout, a two best ball competition on Friday followed by the annual Hideout Amateur on Saturday and Saturday.
Finally, some of the best competition ever seen around these parts occurred far from the spotlight, like at the annual Pioneer Day Breakfast put on the by the Lion's Club, although results were unavailable at press time.
And organizers of the Big Four Tractor Pull were tranquilly hyper-ventilating over the competition and couldn't offer anything either.
Similarly, people were just enjoying things too much to care about who won the Games and Events for young and old at Veteran's Memorial Park, the Pie Eating Contest at the Monticello Ballpark Pavilion, the Tug-O-War Competition, or the Obstacle Courses & Relays.
Thanks for coming!

Lieutenant General Roland Kather, a senior ranking General in the German Army, served as Commander of KFOR from 2006-7. He is a veteran of the Balkans and was Chief of Staff of the German IFOR Contingent in Croatia, the first "out-of-area" mission of the German Bundeswehr.
In 1999 he was Commander of the NATO Multinational Brigade in the South of Kosovo, based in Prizren.
"When I arrived in 1999 I came to a completely devastated country. We were in Prizren, where I had my first assignment, and houses were burning every night. If you looked in the faces of the people then you could see fear and horror. The children had forgotten their laughter and we were awaiting an exceptionally cold winter. "
"we are guests in this country, we behave as guests, we are not occupiers, we do not behave like occupiers…. After a terrible time people have understood that violence is no way to the future, but above all, people have learned that reconciliation will take time. "
"Eight years later I have returned and I noted already when flying in last year in August that the world had fundamentally changed, at least superficially, when looking at it from above. There are the houses again, and the infrastructure is functioning. Children have a regulated everyday life. I notice that children are going to school, sometimes in three shifts. The universities are blossoming. One can feel an urge to get an education. "
KFOR helicopters over Kosovo
Lieutenant General Kather joined the German Army 40 years ago. He studied at the Academy of the Bundeswehr in Hamburg, and then participated in missions in Spain. Afterwards he worked with the Ministry of Defence, was stationed at NATO headquarter in Brussels, where he held the rank of the Tank Brigadier General.

In the decade I've been working here in the comics industry one thing has been made abundantly clear… it can be an extremely difficult for an indie comics creator to make any kind of living off of their work. And I'm of the opinion that if there were more indie folks out there making just a little bit of money off their hard work (instead of losing it as is typical) we'd have even more great comics to enjoy.
Which is why we asked Ed Luce, creator of "Wuvable Oaf" comic and teacher at the California Collage of the Arts, to create the Isotope University with us here at the Isotope. I've had the distinct pleasure of getting to watch Ed create a nice little comics empire for himself over the years with smart professionally printed publications, brilliant down and dirty DIY handmade specials, clever marketing, amazing merchandising, and an exacting meticulousness to his career management which is downright jaw dropping. Not only do I enjoy his comic immensely, but seeing how expertly he's brought his great comic work to an even greater audience and managed to make it help pay his rent is truly a thing of beauty. We have to teach other people how to do this!
This fall's classes are now open for enrollment. As this is our second year of Isotope University, Ed has his sessions refined for maximum usefulness. I'm beyond thrilled to report how amazingly well our 2011 students have been doing for themselves and am really proud of what we've seen produced by those folks. And I want to see more great comics made… by you!
This intensive, five Saturday workshop will cover a wide range of topics essential to successfully self-publishing your own comics project, including Comic Design & Construction, Printing Processes, Merchandising, Social Media/Promotion and Conventions. And you'll be sourcing valuable comics creating career info from special guest lecturers such as Ron Richards (tastemaker behind popular fansite iFanboy.com and editor of Image Comics' "Hell Yeah" series), MariNaomi (acclaimed author of "Kiss & Tell, A Romantic Resume Ages 0-22", published by Harper books), Alex Woofson (creator of the hugely popular "Artifice" web comic and also a true Kickstarter campaign maestro), Justin Hall (editor of "No Straight Lines: Four Decades of Queer Comics" from Fantagraphics Books, as well as his own "Glamazonia" and "True Travel Tales" books and fellow CCA professor), and also yours truly, James Sime of the Isotope and MorrisonCon.
Fill out an application and get yourself enrolled here:
Isotope University 2012 Fall Semester
We made all this for you, locally-based indie comics creators, to help empower your work and make creating comics into something that you can actually afford to do with your lives. I truly can think of no more useful series of classes for indie comic creators offered anywhere else. I can't wait to see what awesome things you create… let's get to making comics, people!

SILVER CITY -- A moving ceremony made its way to several locations Friday as Grant County's last survivor of World War II's tragic Bataan Death March was laid to rest.
Pablo P. Gutierrez died on Dec. 17 at age 93. He had suffered a long illness, but had lived a longer, full life that touched many.
Gutierrez experienced the full horror of war as a soldier in the National Guard 200th/515th Coast Artillery, deployed to the Philippines during WW II. The United States was focused chiefly on winning the European front of the war as the 1,800 soldiers from New Mexico were fighting for their lives on the Bataan Peninsula in the Philippines. On April 9, 1942, U.S. and Filipino forces were surrendered. This began the horrific "Bataan Death March" along the peninsula to the survivors' eventual imprisonment. Soldiers were beaten, starved and executed, with as many as 10,000 perishing along the way.
Gutierrez survived the unimaginable cruelty and was one of the 900 New Mexican soldiers to return home from the mission.
When he did, he met his future life and spent the rest of his days as a dutiful, giving family man. It was this second part of his life that filled much of Friday's ceremonies.
The grand interior of the Our Lady Fatima Catholic Church in Bayard held a solemn but hopeful service in honor of a man who gave so much.
The many rows of pews were nearly filled with family, friends, veterans and other supporters at the funeral service.
The air was filled with mournful notes from a trio of Spanish guitars. The three men behind the strings sang hymns of remembrance, some in English and some in Spanish.
Father Paulus Kao officiated the service, though he was ill throughout, and gave a no-nonsense sermon, focusing on prayers for the deceased veteran.
"I am not going to tell you all he is in Heaven, because I do not know," Kao said. "Instead, our job is to pray for the soul of this man. That is what we can do."
Pray they did. After a full funeral mass, the coffin was taken from the church by soldiers from the Army National Guard's 1200 Infantry Battalion out of Las Cruces to a snow-dusted Fort Bayard National Cemetery. These official pallbearers are in the Army National Guard Honor Guard program of New Mexico. Most of the men volunteered for the mission.
"It is a huge honor for us to be a part of this celebration," said Sgt. Judas Perea, coordinator for the National Guard Honor Guard Program of New Mexico's southwestern region, who was among the Guard today.
After the funeral, the Honor Guard escorted the coffin and the congregation to Ft. Bayard National Cemetery, where a military ceremony was waiting.
Gutierrez received high honors for his service, with a final gun salute tribute, flag folding and speeches from Col. Tim Paul and Guiterrez's daughter Rosemary C. Gutierrez.
Paul gave "freedom, fear and promise" as the chief reasons to remember the fallen hero.
He listed many American freedoms, like women being able to live the life they choose and voting for the candidate they believe in, saying that Gutierrez was one of the reasons Americans still enjoy those freedoms.
He then said that Gutierrez didn't face fear in battle, but danger.
"The difference between fear and danger is that fear is a choice and danger is a reality," Paul said. "If you ask me, this man faced danger without fear."
Paul also said that Gutierrez lived in an honorable fashion and that those present needed to make a "promise to live in his image."
Paul's speech touched veterans from all branches present.
"It was a honor and privilege for us to be there," said Frank Donohue, of the Gaffney-Oglesby Detachment 1328 of the Marine Corps League . "Even though we were Marines, we are all veterans here and many of us are combat veterans. We don't have a clue as to what those gentleman suffered during that four years in a POW camp. It was very brutal and those were brave souls who went through that for all of us. It's a brotherhood of men and women."
After his speech, Paul presented both a flag -- folded in military fashion -- and the podium to Gutierrez's daughter and longtime caregiver, Rosemary.
Rosemary approached the podium and began a speech she called "Like Father, Like Daughter".
She talked about how clean and respectable a man her father had been throughout her lifetime -- how she had never heard him use profanity, how he had quit drinking alcohol when he found out she was going to be born and cigarettes when Rosemary's daughter was coming into the world.
She thanked his caregivers who had done so well by her father, their family members who had dropped everything when they heard Gutierrez had died, and members of Our Lady Fatima for all the help they provided.
Lastly, she thanked her Father for being her hero and her friend.
Rosemary spent the last few years taking care of her revered father and has no regrets.
"I would do it all again," she said. "I would do it again in a second."

CEDAR FALLS (KWWL) - Alex Headington wanted a marriage proposal that his girlfriend Vanessa Schipper could brag about to her friends. It is safe to assume that he accomplished his mission.
Headington recently approached Lamar Advertising Company with an idea for a billboard. The company agreed to help Headington design a sign that aided his marriage proposal last week.
The sign, located near the corner of University Avenue and Cedar Heights Drive in Cedar Falls, reads "Vanessa, Will you marry me? Love you always, Alex."
Headington called Schipper while she was at work, telling her he had a surprise. Schipper agreed to go along with Headington for a drive. After he pulled up to the sign, Headington got out of the car with Schipper, dropped to a knee and proposed.
The couple met while working together at Sears. Schipper admits that she couldn't resist her now-fiancee's charm.

If you are looking for a nontoxic abrasive cleanser, baking soda can't be beat. In a comparison I did between baking soda and Ajax, results were similar in terms of cleaning power. However, according to the Colgate-Palmolive website, Ajax is an eye and skin irritant. The site also states that "over-exposure can cause respiratory irritation." The site mentions that Ajax contains crystalline silica, a low-level carcinogen. The site also said that there is no expected harm from ingesting the cleanser — which is something I won't be experimenting with.
On the other hand, baking soda is so safe you can use it for toothpaste or an age-old remedy for heartburn and indigestion.
Baking soda is slightly cheaper than Ajax, depending on where you purchase it. On average, an 18-ounce box of baking soda is about 60 cents, whereas a 14-ounce can of Ajax is about 75 cents.
Here are a few comparisons I tried out. I used plain baking soda, Ajax and a no-scratch-backing sponge.
Food stains on a laminate countertop
I noticed equal countertop cleaning power, but I did need a bit more elbow grease with the baking soda. The baking soda residue was easier and faster to clean up (hot water and a sponge). The Ajax gave a slightly deeper clean, but left a lot of residue. There is a greater need with Ajax to use a lot more water and, if not a sponge (used only for cleaning), more cloths or paper towels to clean the residue.
Rust stains on floor tiles
I have two great old farmhouse kitchen chairs at my table which I found at a yard sale. The one downside is the chairs have some type of metal on the base of the legs, which while flush with the chair leg, leaves rust stains after I wash my floors. Both baking soda and Ajax got those stains right up. I would have concerns for leftover residue from the Ajax though, as my pets will often lick things up from the floor.
Paint on floor tiles
I have a heavy red toolbox that is stored on the floor of my pantry. Over the years, each time I have pulled out the toolbox, red paint stains have been left behind. The odd thing was it took more scrubbing with the Ajax than the baking soda to remove the paint stains, then plenty of heavy rinsing again for the Ajax.
Stainless steel and porcelain sinks
Mild abrasives are best for stainless steel and porcelain, so baking soda wins on that factor alone. However, both products cleaned about equally, with a bit more shine on the stainless steel from the Ajax. An added benefit to using baking soda to clean sinks is its ability to help unclog drains. Ajax, especially if it contains bleach, sends more toxins into the water supply.
Both products cleaned equally well, but baking soda will keep your pipes clearer, is safe for septic systems and won't pollute the water supply.
Linoleum floors
Since the bathroom is where we all go to clean ourselves, it also has a tendency to be one of the rooms in the house that gets dirty the fastest. I would never use a strong abrasive on linoleum, but a light scrub with baking soda is good for getting out grime that gets into the indentations of the patterns in the linoleum.
So, anywhere you can use a light, nontoxic abrasive, baking soda is the humble winner.

Apera is the Ultimate Healthy Bag. Let's face the ugly but accurate truth – you sweat when you work out. Then you take your sweaty gear and put it all in your gym bag. Those sweaty socks, shirts, and workout gear are all snarling together inside one dank, unorganized, germ-breeding compartment. And that makes your gym bag stink.
Well, Apera bags don't stink because we have designed a bag with the ultimate healthy features: antimicrobial product protection to reduce the formation of bacterial odor, vented compartments, wipeable linings, wet/dry separation, a FREE Fit Pocket washable insert, and a water-resistant base. Apera also inspires all athletes by donating our time, talents and 3% of our after-tax profit to Special Olympics in support of their athletes., Founded in 1984 in Chino, CA, Bellino was created to provide men and women with leather products that combine excellent quality leather, refined workmanship, stylish fashion, and modern function.
