Five Democratic senators who broke away to form their own caucus will partner with...
Five Democratic senators who broke away to form their own caucus will partner with Senate Republicans to run the state Legislature's upper chamber, the two conferences announced Tuesday.
Under an agreement unveiled Tuesday afternoon, the breakaway Independent Democratic Conference will be recognized as a permanent third conference in the Senate, sharing power with Republicans over which bills are put to a vote, state budget negotiations and various appointments and leadership positions.
Both Sen. Jeff Klein, D-Bronx, and Sen. Dean Skelos, R-Nassau County, will lead their respective groups, but will alternate the title of temporary Senate president every two weeks.
"Senator Klein has proven to be a thoughtful and effective leader, and I look forward to partnering with him to move this state forward," Skelos, the current majority leader, said in a statement.
Republicans currently hold a slim majority in the chamber, but Democrats made major gains on Election Day to have a chance at regaining control of the Senate. But one Democrat, Simcha Felder of Brooklyn, quickly announced his plans to caucus with the GOP, though Republicans were still one seat shy of controlling the 63-member Senate prior to Tuesday's announcement.
Klein, who partnered with Sen. David Carlucci, D-Clarkstown, Rockland County, and two others to first form the Independent Democratic Conference early last year, had been in negotiations with Republicans over the past few weeks.
"Having dedicated the past two years to a serious, policy-driven agenda, this agreement delivers on the IDC's pledge to become a permanent third conference within the State Senate and to have a major voice in all policy decisions moving forward," Klein said in a statement.
Sen. Malcolm Smith, D-Queens, joined the caucus of renegade Democrats on Tuesday.
"Senator Malcolm Smith is joining as part of the Independent Democratic Conference to create a coalition, bi-partisan government that will get things done in Albany for people of the state," Hank Sheinkopf, a veteran Democratic strategist serving as Smith's spokesman, said prior to the announcement.
Earlier Tuesday, a spokesman for Senate Democrats said anyone elected on the Democratic line owes it to their constituents to sit with the main party conference.
"Those elected as Democrats should respect voters' clearly expressed intent and sit with the Democratic Conference to implement important progressive goals like standing up for women's health, passing real campaign finance reform, raising the minimum wage and enacting common sense gun laws," said Mike Murphy, the spokesman. "Anything less would be a disservice to the people of our state."

You just can't make this stuff up. According to the National Journal, something exploded and the press room was soon inundated by liquid matter.
Something suddenly broke in the piping of the third-floor urinal, and water began spewing from beneath the men's room door. As the water flowed, it first surrounded the Associated Press's working area, then spread toward both ends of the gallery, which was occupied by fewer than usual reporters and staffers, because the House is out of session until Tuesday.
There was a huge escape, and "employees from the Architect of the Capitol and other Capitol staffers managed to eventually stop the geyser." Then vacuums came to "suck up the water, and a section of the gallery carpeting was taken up – leaving behind a sticky floor."
Nothing of this surprises me. This sounds exactly how I imagine things are in that building every day: lots of liquid, overflowing, wet press, vacuum sucking and sticky floors. [National Journal via Wonkette]

Starburst® Continues Songwriters Music Series to Benefit the VH1 Save The Music Foundation With Colbie Caillat in Los Angeles
Songwriters Music Series Features Intimate Performances and the Compelling Tales Behind The Songs
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11, 2011 -- On September 22nd, the VH1 Save The Music Foundation continues the Songwriters Music Series in Los Angeles with an acoustic performance by Grammy® Award winning musician, Colbie Caillat. This marks the third stop in the series, which launched in New York City this past May with a performance by Glee star Matthew Morrison and continued in Nashville, Tennessee in June with ACM Award-winning sibling trio The Band Perry.
"Starburst is excited to be a part of the final Songwriters in the Round series in Los Angeles to help raise money and awareness for the VH1 Save the Music Foundation," said Michael Watt, Wrigley's VP and General Manager US Confections. "The first two events had Starburst contradictory elements woven throughout the evening, the venue and the artist's performance and we can't wait to bring that to the LA event."
Songwriters Music Series benefits the VH1 Save The Music Foundation in their mission to provide all children with access to a complete education that includes music. Presented by Starburst, each event has been unique to its host city, held at an exclusive venue and featured today's most celebrated artists/bands performing their hit songs and sharing their personal stories behind the music. Matthew Morrison and The Band Perry launched the series with highly touted, intimate sets that allowed their fans to experience their music up close and personal, all while getting some insight into the inspiration behind their favorite songs. The initial two events have raised more than $100,000 in support of their efforts to keep music education in our nation's public schools.
"We are so excited to move forward with our Songwriters Music Series and have Colbie Caillat perform," said Paul Cothran, Executive Director of the VH1 Save The Music Foundation. "The first two events were huge successes and I can't wait to continue with a talented artist such as her. With Colbie's help we can continue to raise awareness about the importance of a musical education in a child's life, ensuring that additional children have access to the benefits of music study."
Armed simply with her dusky vocals and acoustic guitar, Colbie Caillat and her homespun music continue to resonate with listeners and win new fans. Since the release of her multi-platinum debut Coco in 2007 and it's follow up Breakthrough, which debuted at number one on the Billboard charts, Caillat has continuously produced great music, leading up to her most recent album, All of You. As a VH1 Save The Music Foundation Ambassador, Colbie has raised more than $20,000 to help keep instrumental music education in our nation's public schools, recognizing the value it has on the development of the whole child.
"I'm so thrilled to be included in Starburst and the VH1 Save The Music Foundation's Songwriters Music Series," said Colbie Caillat. "As a Foundation Ambassador, it is always exciting to do my part in helping them spread awareness about the importance of music education in our schools. It's going to be a great show so make sure to get your tickets!"
On September 22nd, she will perform an intimate acoustic set at a soon to be disclosed location in Los Angeles to benefit the Foundation. As an added bonus, Caillat will join past performers in the series by performing a special song that is contradictory to her normal genre, in the spirit of Starburst candy's contradictory taste – solid, yet juicy like a liquid. Attendees will be encouraged to share their own personal contradictions with the Starburst Contradictions Project to be part of the Starburst $250,000 donation to the VH1 Save the Music Foundation. Joining Starburst, additional national sponsors of the Songwriters Music Series include: Martin Guitars, William Hill Estate Wines, State Farm Insurance, JetBlue Airways, RAYMOND WEIL USA, Pioneer Engineering and Skam Artist Entertainment. Tickets are priced at $100 each for the Los Angeles event and include open bar, passed food and music by DJ Rick Rude. Sponsorship and ticket proceeds will benefit the VH1 Save The Music Foundation. A limited number are currently on sale at www.vh1savethemusic.com/songwriters or by calling 212-846-7882.
In conjunction with the Songwriters Music Series, Starburst is also presenting the Contradictions auction to benefit the Foundation, which consists of a curated series of items and experiences that celebrate the contradictions that make life more interesting, in harmony with the Starburst contradictions campaign. The auction is being run through leading charity auction site charitybuzz and fans are invited to view the entire collection and bid at http://www.charitybuzz.com/auctions/Contradictions. Some items included are a visit to the VH1 Single Ladies set, four tickets to the SOLD OUT iHeartRadio Music Festival, two tickets to Jazz in the Gardens with a stay at the Kimpton Hotel Miami and two VIP tickets to Alicia Keys' Stick Fly on Broadway opening night and after party.

TOBRAMYCIN- tobramycin solution
Sandoz Inc
Tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% is a sterile topical ophthalmic antibiotic formulation prepared specifically for topical therapy of external ophthalmic infections.
Each mL of tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% contains: Active: tobramycin 0.3% (3 mg). Preservative: benzalkonium chloride 0.01% (0.1 mg). Inactives: boric acid, sodium sulfate, sodium chloride, tyloxapol, sodium hydroxide and/or sulfuric acid (to adjust pH) and purified water. Tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% has a pH range between 7.0 and 8.0 and an osmolality of 260-320 mOsm/kg.
Tobramycin is a water-soluble aminoglycoside antibiotic active against a wide variety of gram-negative and gram-positive ophthalmic pathogens.
The chemical structure of tobramycin is:
Molecular Formula:C18H37N5O9
Chemical Name: 0-{3-amino-3-deoxy-α-D-gluco-pyranosyl-(1→4)} -0- {2,6-diamino-2,3,6-trideoxy-α-D-ribohexopyranosyl-(1→6) }-2-deoxystreptamine.
In Vitro Data
In vitro studies have demonstrated tobramycin is active against susceptible strains of the following microorganisms: Staphylococci, including S. aureus and S. epidermidis (coagulase-positive and coagulase-negative), including penicillin-resistant strains.
Streptococci, including some of the Group A-beta-hemolytic species, some nonhemolytic species, and some Streptococcus pneumoniae.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter aerogenes, Proteus mirabilis, Morganella morganii, most Proteus vulgaris strains, Haemophilus influenzae and H. aegyptius, Moraxella lacunata, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus and some Neisseria species. Bacterial susceptibility studies demonstrate that in some cases, microorganisms resistant to gentamicin retain susceptibility to tobramycin.
Tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% is a topical antibiotic indicated in the treatment of external infections of the eye and its adnexa caused by susceptible bacteria. Appropriate monitoring of bacterial response to topical antibiotic therapy should accompany the use of tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3%. Clinical studies have shown tobramycin to be safe and effective for use in children.
Tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of its components.
FOR TOPICAL OPHTHALMIC USE ONLY. NOT FOR INJECTION INTO THE EYE. Sensitivity to topically applied aminoglycosides may occur in some patients. If a sensitivity reaction to tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% occurs, discontinue use.
As with other antibiotic preparations, prolonged use may result in overgrowth of nonsusceptible organisms, including fungi. If superinfection occurs, appropriate therapy should be initiated. Cross-sensitivity to other aminoglycoside antibiotics may occur; if hypersensitivity develops with this product, discontinue use and institute appropriate therapy. Patients should be advised not to wear contact lenses if they have signs and symptoms of bacterial ocular infection.
Do not touch dropper tip to any surface, as this may contaminate the solution.
Reproduction studies in three types of animals at doses up to thirty-three times the normal human systemic dose have revealed no evidence of impaired fertility or harm to the fetus due to tobramycin. There are, however, no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Because animal studies are not always predictive of human response, this drug should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.
Because of the potential for adverse reactions in nursing infants from tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3%, a decision should be made whether to discontinue nursing the infant or discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.
Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients below the age of 2 months has not been established.
The most frequent adverse reactions to tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% are hypersensitivity and localized ocular toxicity, including lid itching and swelling, and conjunctival erythema. These reactions occur in less than three of 100 patients treated with tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3%. Similar reactions may occur with the topical use of other aminoglycoside antibiotics. Other adverse reactions have not been reported from tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% therapy; however, if topical ocular tobramycin is administered concomitantly with systemic aminoglycoside antibiotics, care should be taken to monitor the total serum concentration.
To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Sandoz Inc., at 1-800-525-8747 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.
Clinically apparent signs and symptoms of an overdose of tobramycin ophthalmic solution, USP 0.3% (punctate keratitis, erythema, increased lacrimation, edema and lid itching) may be similar to adverse reaction effects seen in some patients.
In mild to moderate disease, instill one or two drops into the affected eye(s) every four hours. In severe infections, instill two drops into the eye(s) hourly until improvement, following which treatment should be reduced prior to discontinuation.
5 mL sterile solution is packaged in a 8 mL white plastic DROP-TAINER* bottle with a plastic dispensing plug and white plastic closure (NDC 61314-643-05) containing tobramycin 0.3% (3 mg/mL).
Store at 2° to 25°C (36° to 77°F).

"Speaking outside court yesterday Mr Tierney said: "No-one is willing to be held accountable for failing to educate my daughter."
It couldn't happen in England of course, given that we don't have an equivalent of the Scottish Standards in Schools Act, which contains the following:
"Duty of education authority in providing school education
(1) Where school education is provided to a child or young person by, or by virtue of arrangements made, or entered into, by, an education authority it shall be the duty of the authority to secure that the education is directed to the development of the personality, talents and mental and physical abilities of the child or young person to their fullest potential."
Why should parents in England be celebrating? Well it confirms once and for all that legislators should be very careful not to infringe the duty of parents to be responsible for the education of their children. It's not clear if the action will succeed however, because presumably parental responsibility for education still stands in Scotland.Update: Have subsequently heard that where a Scottish parent delegates the responsibility for educational provision to a public (state) school, section 1 of the SinSS Act applies and the parent is reasonably entitled to expect the test to be met. Looks like this dad might be in with a good chance then!

PHILADELPHIA – The lining of the intestine regenerates itself every few days as compared to say red blood cells that turn over every four months. The cells that help to absorb food and liquid that humans consume are constantly being produced. The various cell types that do this come from stem cells that reside deep in the inner recesses of the accordion-like folds of the intestines, called villi and crypts.
But exactly where the most important stem cell type is located — and how to identify it — has been something of a mystery. In fact, two types of intestinal stem cells have been proposed to exist but the relationship between them has been unclear. One type of stem cell divides slowly and resides at the sides of intestinal crypts. The other divides much more quickly and resides at the bottom of the crypts.
Some researchers have been proponents of one type of stem cell or the other as the "true" intestinal stem cell. Recent work published this week in Science from the lab of Jonathan Epstein, MD, chairman of the Department of Cell and Developmental Biology from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, may reconcile this controversy. The findings suggest that these two types of stem cells are related. In fact, each can produce the other, which surprised the researchers.
"We actually began our studies by looking at stem cells in the heart and other organs," Epstein said. "In other tissues in the body, slowly dividing cells can sometimes give rise to more rapidly dividing stem cells that are called to action when tissue regeneration is required. Our finding that this can happen in reverse in the intestine was not expected."
The discovery that rapidly cycling gut stem cells can regenerate the quiescent stem cells — slowly dividing and probably long-lived — suggests that the developmental pathways in human organs that regenerate quickly like in the gut, skin, blood, and bone, may be more flexible than previously appreciated.
"This better appreciation and understanding may help us learn how to promote the regeneration of tissue-specific adult stem cells that could subsequently help with tissue regeneration," says Epstein. "It may also help us to understand the cell types that give rise to cancer in the colon and stomach."

Bon Jovi's lead guitarist Richie Sambora was fired from the band's tour, according to U.S. reports.
The rocker reportedly fell out with Jon Bon Jovi and their bandmates over money, according to RumorFix.com.
Sambora still collects songwriting royalties and profits from merchandise, but he won't be rejoining the band onstage after stepping down earlier this year.
Neither the guitarist nor Bon Jovi have discussed the split or the reason for it, but Sambora is reportedly not taking the news well.
A source says, "Richie wants to go back on stage – that's his first love. He's really upset over the news."
The 54 year old has not performed with the band since the spring, citing a "personal matter," and in July, Sambora revealed he wouldn't be joining the band for their much-anticipated Hyde Park shows in London.
He said, "I am not going to be onstage at Hyde Park sadly. It's just not happening right now. I truly want to be there and I feel very sad for the fans that I won't be performing. I love the fans, I love the band."
He added, "Jon (Bon Jovi) and I have been tight for, like, 30 years, so all of this is very sad."
Bon Jovi's lead guitarist Richie Sambora was fired from the band's tour, according to U.S. reports.

I'm trying to create a simple topdown game, in which you control the player by WASD keys and use mouse to aim and shoot. So far, I have a player moving and firing, but I think there is something wrong with the shooting.
Accuracy gets lower as the mouse cursor move away from the player.
Please try the following SWF to see more clearly what I'm trying to say.
Here is a chunk of relevant code:
private function fireBullet(x:Number, y:Number, dFireAngle:Number):void {
var b:Bullet = recycleBullet();
var rFireAngle:Number;
b.reset(x, y);
b.angle = dFireAngle;
rFireAngle = (dFireAngle * (Math.PI / 180));
b.velocity.x = Math.cos(rFireAngle) * 385;
b.velocity.y = Math.sin(rFireAngle) * 385;
if (FlxG.mouse.pressed()) {
var p:FlxPoint = new FlxPoint(FlxG.mouse.screenX, FlxG.mouse.screenY);
var angle:Number = FlxU.getAngle(new FlxPoint(player.x, player.y), p) - 90;
fireBullet(player.x, player.y, angle);

Plagued proto-drakes[1] are proto-dragons plagued by the new Blight of the Scourge. Although it's unknown from which dragonflight the first generation of plagued proto-dragons were changed from, the following generations were raised and hatched from small blight pools within Scourge loyal frost vrykul villages. The first frost vrykul village to raise these new proto-dragons was Valkyrion[2], followed by Ymirheim.
Small in numbers these creatures are mostly used as mounts for the frost vrykuls that serve the Lich King.
This article or section includes speculation, observations or opinions possibly supported by lore or by Blizzard officials. It should not be taken as representing official lore.
While in the past the Scourge tried to use the black dragonflight for their experiments, these new versions were most likely created from the blue proto-dragons that inhabit the area. Though it's possible the black proto-dragons were used, which would explain their lack of appearance in Northrend among the others that do appear.

|Printed in centennial edition of the Peshtigo Times, 06OCT1971, pg 6
"SCHOOL HOUSE -- This photo of the Peshtigo House of Learning was taken in 1870 -- just one year before the school and all the other occupied buildings in Peshtigo burned in the Great Fire."
It was amazing to see this picture. And sad. And chilling. I sit here and wonder how many of these people survived the fire. No names with the photo. I can only imagine that if there were names they would have appeared with the photo.

Take a Monet, a Turner and other paintings worth millions of dollars and lend them to schools for a day. It may sound like a looming disaster, but not to British organizers of a project bringing great art to kids.
At Addey and Stanhope, an ethnically-diverse school in south London, 11 and 12-year-old pupils had no idea that the artwork they had been studying was coming to visit them until it turned up this week, accompanied by a white-gloved expert.
"Everyone was like: 'Oh my god, oh my god,'" said Holly, 11, bouncing up and down as her classmates swarmed around the Byzantine Lady, a striking 1912 portrait by British artist Vanessa Bell.
The "Masterpieces in Schools" project, which is backed by the BBC, includes 26 paintings — collectively worth US$22 million — that British galleries are lending to schools around Britain this month.
The insurance costs have not been disclosed — but security is so tight that organizers are unable to reveal the names of the paintings or the schools until the canvases are safely back in their galleries.
"First things first — this painting is worth an awful lot of money," teacher Matthew Teager told the wide-eyed boys and girls as they filed into the drama studio to see the portrait. "You are not to touch it."
Pupils had spent hours drawing their own versions of the portrait and learning about the history of its subject — the sixth-century Empress Theodora — as well as the artist, a member of the influential Bloomsbury Group of 20th-century intellectuals and sister of author Virginia Woolf.
As part of the government's art collection, the Byzantine Lady has been displayed on the walls of ministries and embassies, and the children also wrote poems about the conversations she may have overheard.
Most wrote about major events they have studied in history class — the fall of the Berlin Wall and the 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre.
However, at this state-run school — where many of the pupils are black and more than a third speak English as a second language — many also chose to write about discrimination in their own city, as witnessed by an imaginary Byzantine Lady.
"I have seen the London black people being judged and abused, just because of their color," one pupil read to her class.
For their teacher the project is about bringing art to children who might otherwise be unlikely to visit a gallery.
"This is about inspiring a real multicultural cross-range of kids into thinking: 'Actually, I can go and see that,'" Teager said.
It is also about brightening up the curriculum — the Byzantine Lady has spilled into their English, art and history lessons, and when a curator asked questions about the Byzantine Empire, several hands shot up each time.
"I thought it was going to be boring, but it's made learning history more interesting," 12-year-old Rahida said.
The Public Catalogue Foundation, an art charity which organized the project with the BBC, said most of the paintings involved could be found in galleries nearby so that pupils could go back to visit them — although in the Byzantine Lady's case, it returns to the government's private collection.
"It's really nice to see their faces light up," the charity's senior editor Rachel Collings said, adding that organizers hope to run the scheme again next year.
Ava, 11, was among several pupils who said the Byzantine Lady had inspired her to become an artist.

The final day played out somewhat as expected with considerably less wind than the previous days. Meeting at 10am, the racers arrived to a calm beach and a more serene atmosphere, with the hopes that the wind would shift and increase enough to hold racing or the remainder of the freestyle competition.
Unfortunately, these hopes never came to fruition, and by 2:00, it was decided that both the race and freestyle portions of this final day would be cancelled.
While waiting for wind, riders entertained themselves beachside, lounging around Mamita's Beach Club, SUPing, and reading books. Katja Roose, the top female rider of this competition spent some quality time with her mother and father who accompanied her to this event.
When asked about her opinion concerning her performance in this event, she commented that she was really happy to have had great female competition, specifically mentioning Erica Heineken, who was often not far behind.
Roose went on to say that she's very excited that more and more females are beginning to take part in the sport, revealing that while the equipment can still be expensive, it is becoming more accessible – as racers only require one board and just a few kites.
Making a huge mark on the event as well, Erica Heineken, in her first PKRA race competition ever, finished at an impressive 2nd place. While she may not be able to make it to other PKRA race events this year, Heineken said she hopes to make it to more in the future, and will be competing at Worlds in 2012 alongside many of the local races from her home spot – San Fransisco.
For the men, the U.S. dominated this event, with John Heineken, Bryan Lake, and Adam Koch taking the top three podium finishes. Koch explained earlier in the event how appreciative he is to be racing alongside such talented racers.
With a high level of respect between these riders, Koch revealed that they all challenge each other with every race, elevating the level of riding while still maintaining a healthy sense of camaraderie and admiration.
The SUP races commenced around 2:30 and provided a great source of entertainment for the otherwise laid back afternoon. The local Mexicans proved to be quite capable on their stand-up paddleboards; however, Sebastian Garat took the final win, just barely inching out Alberto Rondina after he tripped in the sand on the final run back to the finish line.
Finally, the closing ceremonies and awards signified the end of the MINI Kiteboard World Tour event. With a slight breeze and that ever-so-unique illumination of the "Mexican" sun, the top riders took their places on the podium, accepting with grace and pride their special gifts, champagne, and prizes.
Since the freestyle riders were unable to complete the single elimination ladder, the four finalists – Sean Farley (MEX) , Alberto Rondina (ITA), Noe Mixtli (MEX), and Miguel Manzanilla (MEX) gained equal recognition on stage for this event.
While this podium did not reflect a completed competition, it was most certainly exciting to see the local riders from Playa Del Carmen and Progreso shine at their home spot. Additionally, Paolo Rista (ITA), Andrzej Ozog (POL), and Luis Nuno Morais (POR) won top placements for the Master's division.
The PKRA would like to thank MINI Kiteboarding, Sandos Hotels & Resorts, Kiteboardtrips.com, and Mamita's Beach Club for making the first racing tour stop of 2012 so spectacular.

Fra: Horace E. Scudder Til: H.C. Andersen
Sprog: engelsk.
No. 14 East Twelfth Street New York 8 March 1862
To HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN Honoured Sir:
I should not venture to write to you and send you my short critique of a portion of your works, li your countryman Christian Hansen of Boston had not asked me to do so, assuring me that I should thus give you pleasure; for so many better minds must have reviewed your stories both in Europe and in America that I thought you would only smile at my contribution, caring little now for criticism from an unknown writer.
But at Mr. Hansen's advice I send the Review, glad if I may give any pleasure to one who has been among the choicest of my book-friends and who is indeed something more than a bookfriend for that implies a friendship resting In the books, but I have moreover a personal feeling of friendship as for one I have known by personal acquaintance. When a child I read your stories-all of us American children do - and now when I take them up again, and read them with a more critical mind they are tome more full than ever of beauty and holy truth; and I wished no better introduction to the public as a young author than that which should come thus in the older company of yourself.
You have many friends in America, Herr Andersen, like myself who have grown up your friends, but who have slight opportunity of showing to you their love. Take this critique, dear Sir, not as my voice alone but as the exponent of many minds who would most heartily agree with me in my estimate of your art, however much they might differ from me in minor points. I should like to say more but I feel that it would be unbecoming. Receive this poor letter for what it is a little post-script to my article, &private and confidential in which I can say frankly what as an author I could not so well say in print. I assure you it is with no small pleasure that I write thus to one who has doubtless many honourable insignia, but who is to me and to all my fellow children in America, young and old, simply Hans Christian Andersen, best of story tellers.
You will I am sure pardon my presumption in writing and believe me, Ever, Dear and Honoured Sir,
Faithfully yours
Accompanying this letter is sent a copy of the Nat Quarterly Review of New York for September 1861.

Actress Priyanka Chopra, who plays Mary Kom in a biopic on the Olympic bronze medallist, asserts that she will be able to convince the audience in the role of a boxer.
The actress has never played any sport in her life, yet she is confident of playing a sportsperson in the film.
"I will try my best to play a sportsperson in the film. I will try my best to be as close to the boxer as I can. I will convince you as a boxer in the film," Priyanka said here in an interview.
"I have never played any sport in my life and it's quite ironic that I am playing a sportswoman, but that's the beauty of an actor," she added.
The 31-year-old said that to play a specific character on screen, an actor doesn't need to be like that in real life too.
"If I play a villain on screen, for that I don't need to be a villain in real life. If I have done action in 'Don' that doesn't mean I need to do it first in real life," Priyanka said.
The actress was seen doing some daring stunts in "Don - The Chase Begins Again" and "Don 2".
Priyanka, who has had personal sessions with the Manipur-based Kom, says her spirit is very inspiring for her as well as for the youth.
"For me, Mary Kom is very inspiring. At the age of 32, even after having three kids, she is still in the boxing ring, has been to the Olympics and again she will start training for it," said Priyanka.
Kom is a five-time world boxing champion and the only woman boxer to have won a medal in each one of the six world championships. But recognition eluded her for many years and she only got her due after winning a bronze medal at the London Olympics.
"She has proved to all of us that being a woman and coming from a small town, where enough facilities for training are not there, if you put your mind in something, then you can achieve anything. She is a precious gemstone of our country and very influential to our generation," Priyanka added.
The biopic on Mary Kom is being directed by Omung Kumar and is produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

What We Do
How do you reach out to a child who has experienced the death of someone they love? How does an adult family member explore and cope with grief, yet still support a child's loss?
Stepping Stones of Hope provides an opportunity to answer these questions during our many programs designed for kids, teens, adults and families.
From First Steps support group to our One Day At Camp and a variety of weekend, overnight camps, our programs reach out to children, teens and adults in separate, synergistic settings that have been designed to provide a nurturing, expressive, creative and fun environment for healing to transpire.
Death is a difficult concept for children to grasp. Kids often keep their emotions hidden, not knowing how to communicate their pain, and not wanting to add to an adult's grief burden. Our programs provide a safe place for children to express themselves.
Through art, music, role-playing, and a lot of talking and laughing, kids learn about death and dying. And, they learn how to begin to cope. At the same time nearby, and in a separate location, adult family members are learning too, exploring their grief through journaling, music, art, self-care, relaxation and dialogue. And they discover ways to best support the children who share their loss.
Every healing journey begins with a first step.

For the Ukiah Daily Journal
The Human Race was the brainchild of Tami Bartolomei. She brought the concept and passion and, with NCO executive director Patty Bruder, initiated the first event in 2005; this year they are gearing up for their ninth run on Saturday, May 3 beginning at Alex Thomas Plaza at 9 a.m.
Community Action provided funding to pay for a big part of the first event and additional financial support came from local businesses.
"We worked with a committee and the generous sponsorship of Freidman Brothers, the Savings Bank and Redwood Credit Union. The first one was a whole lot of work," says Bruder. "It was a matter of educating the community about what we were doing. People didn"t understand the concept: how we work together and how we raise money for other organizations.
"We thought it would be a major fund raiser for NCO as well; one of the things we realized, it became a friendraiser. It got us out into the community and people learned about who we are and what we"re doing," she says.
NCO is a community action agency looking to create a healthy self-sustaining community. They provide support to people through various agencies including Headstart, Rural Community Childcare, Foster Grandparents Program, Redwood Caregiver Resource Center and food systems including community gardens, Farm to Fork and nutritional education.
Bruder has been with the agency for almost 30 years and recently took up the reins of leadership in November.
"I am having a really good time now," she says. "It"s fun to come into an organization and know it so well, know the people. I am able to implement ideas that I have thought needed to be done for a long time focusing on strengthening our programs, responding to the needs of the community and providing fiscal sponsorship for fledgling organizations willing to try out new ideas."
Ian Fitzpatrick and Brandon Kight, co-coordinators for this year"s Human Race, say everyone is welcome to participate and there is still time to sign up. Presently there are 35 registered teams; last year the race went off with 43. All are welcome to walk for a non-profit of their choosing by joining a team, creating a team or walking solo.
This year"s teams are raising money. The Redwood Credit Union had a one-day bake sale and raised over $1,100. The Savings Bank had an employee-only hamburger barbecue and raised over $1,300. Every team member who participates in the race receives $25 from the bank to start them off. Willits Headstart has raised over $500 with a bake sale outside Safeway. It"s a more personal way for employees to come together socially and support a non-profit of their choice.
Then there are the prizes. There"s an iPad Mini for the top individual fundraiser and gift certificates to Dig! Music and Top It Yogurt for members of the second and third place teams. Monday, April 28 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. is bank night to bring money and receive free wristbands and T-shirts and Friday, May 2, is the last day to turn in money at NCO to participate in prizes for the contest.
Registration begins at 8 a.m. at Alex Thomas Plaza on May 3 and the event starts at 9 a.m. with runners first and walkers following. The Northcoast Striders will be available to time the 5K route to determine qualifying times for those interested and for an additional fee of $30. The South Ukiah Lions Club will provide a free pancake breakfast for all registered participants and there will be games and booths for the whole family.
Walkers have hours to complete the 5K route that heads west on West Stephenson, north on Bush, west on Grove, up to Todd Grove Park and around, east on Grove, a short jaunt north on Bush, east on Cypress, south on Bush and east on West Stephenson to return home.
Teams are encouraged to dress up and there is a contest for the best centipede and best t-shirt.
So ready, pick your team; set, get organized; and go, raise money for your favorite non profit and have fun while you are doing it.

White Bean Stew
Simple and filling little recipe for the winter. You could substitute the greens and beans with other varieties. The magazine I saw the recipe in listed a 26oz can of diced tomatoes while this one one lists 1 cup. I'd prolly go in between with a 15oz can diced, unless you want more tomato flavor.
* 2 pounds Swiss chard, large stems discarded and leaves cut crosswise into 2-inch strips
* 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
* 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
* 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
* 1 cup canned tomatoes, chopped
* One 16-ounce can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
* Salt
1. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Add the chard and simmer over moderate heat until tender, 8 minutes. Drain the greens and gently press out excess water.
2. In the saucepan, heat the oil. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper and cook over moderate heat until the garlic is golden, 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and bring to a boil. Add the beans and simmer over moderately high heat for 3 minutes. Add the chard and simmer over moderate heat until the flavors meld, 5 minutes. Season the stew with salt and serve.

That sounds almost exactly like what i made last night... and it was GOOD
Here's an update to this recipe after I've made it several times. I converted to a larger family sized batch and adjusted the bean/tomato ratio.
Bean and Swiss Chard Stew
3 ~15oz. cans cannellini beans (could substitute great northerns)
3 15oz. cans diced stewed tomatoes (I usually buy the Italian seasoned or similar)
2 bunches of Swiss Chard (I'd guess 2-3 pounds)
4-6 cloves garlic (diced)
Dried pepper flakes (optional)
1. Remove stems and dice chard into bite size pieces
2. Boil the chard in a large pot for 5 minutes or until tender; drain and cool.
3. In a large pot heat a few tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat and cook garlic 30-60 seconds until golden (and a pinch or more of red pepper flakes if you want a little heat).
4. Add cans of stewed tomatoes and simmer for a few minutes. Season with a good bit of salt.
5. Drain and rinse the beans then add them to the pot. Bring back to a simmer.
6. Squeeze out any remaining water in the chard and add to the pot.
After the first batch you can easily adjust the tomato/bean ratio to suit your taste. Slices of cooked/smoked sausage, such as sweet fennel or kielbasa are a good addition too.

New Philadelphia looked like a typical west-central Illinois pioneer town to travelers cresting the hill overlooking the place in the mid-1800s. Imagine villagers filling baskets with a bounty of apples, corn, and wheat, while chickens clucked and pigs rooted in nearby pens. Picture farmers hitching mules and oxen to carts filled with vegetables, fruit, and grain to sell at markets. Listen for loud clanging from the blacksmith's shop as hammers shaped hot metal into shoes for mules and horses. As in other frontier towns, smoke from cooking fires swirled from the dwellings that dotted small plots of land.
But New Philadelphia was not a typical pioneer town. It was the first town platted and registered by an African American before the American Civil War. A formerly enslaved man called "Free Frank" McWorter founded New Philadelphia in 1836 as a money-making venture to buy his family out of slavery. Census records and other historical documents tell us that New Philadelphia was a place where black and white villagers lived side by side, but we know that the town's dead lie buried in cemeteries separated by color.
By 1885, many villagers had moved away in search of jobs and better economic opportunities. Plows buried any material remains left behind, and grazing livestock and crops covered most of the site. By the 1940s, nothing of the town remained above ground. However, the town's descendants and neighboring communities did not forget New Philadelphia. Descendents continued to live in the area until the 1950s. Grace Matteson wrote "Free Frank" McWorter and the "Ghost Town" of New Philadelphia, Pike County, Illinois. Later, Lorraine Burdick remembered the town in New Philadelphia: Where I Lived. McWorter family descendants were members of the Negro History Movement led by Carter G. Woodson, and through their activities the story of Free Frank was kept alive. Helen McWorter Simpson, great granddaughter of Free Frank McWorter, wrote Makers of History. Juliet E. K. Walker memorialized her great great grandfather in Free Frank: A Black Pioneer on the Antebellum Frontier. Archeologists and historians pieced together historic documents, recollections of the town's descendants, and artifacts to tell the story of New Philadelphia and the lifeways of its diverse townsfolk.

The Portland Center for Public Humanities cordially invites you to the Faculty Lunch and Lecture Series.
In March, we will welcome Hillary Jenks. She will be presenting
Mervyn Dymally and the Politics of Suburban Multiracialism in Reagan-Era Southern California
Friday, March 15, 12pm
Neuberger Hall 407 | 724 SW Harrison (Click here for information on accessing PSU and visitor parking options)
In Southern California's South Bay, hub of the region's aerospace economy, Japanese Americans and African Americans purchased homes and became civic leaders in the neighboring suburban cities of Gardena and Compton during the 1950s and 60s. During the 1970s the two suburbs' trajectories diverged, with Compton experiencing massive levels of white flight and disinvestment while Gardena capitalized on Japanese corporate investment and a carefully balanced diversity: in 1975, the city's population was 52% white, 15% Latino, 20% Asian, and 13% African American. Beginning in 1980, the area gained a Congressional representative capable of addressing these contradictions - Mervyn Dymally, an immigrant from Trinidad with a Muslim Indian father and a Catholic Trinidadian mother, who at one point was working illegally in the United States after overstaying his student visa. Dymally drew on his heritage and experiences to connect with the residents of his district, forge unexpected alliances, and pursue progressive policy goals, including Japanese American redress. This case study explores the challenges and rewards of building multiracial coalitions in California's diverse suburbs, and the impact of the Reagan era on that political and social landscape.
Historian Hillary Jenks is an assistant professor in the University Honors Program at Portland State University whose scholarship focuses on comparative racialization and metropolitan community formation in the twentieth-century United States. She received her Ph.D. in American Studies and Ethnicity from the University of Southern California in 2008. Professor Jenks is currently revising her award-winning dissertation into a book, Home Is Little Tokyo: Race and Metropolitan Development in Twentieth-Century Los Angeles. Using the ethnic enclave of Little Tokyo and the suburb of Gardena in Southern California as case studies, this work argues that racially inscribed spaces such as barrios, ghettos, and enclaves have been central to shaping the distinctive physical and symbolic landscapes of the metropolitan U.S. West. Her next project, The Color of the City: Urban Revitalization and Regional Identities, 1950-2010, will examine the significance of historic preservation and environmental legislation in redirecting investment capital towards central cities over the latter half of the twentieth century.

Olympics 2010
I don't know what it is about the olympics, but it definitely fires up feelings of inspiration and joy. The people are different, but the feelings, in general, are the same. These people from around the world, work at least four years for a moment like this. All their hopes an dreams could be realized or crushed by a millisecond or a tenth of a point.
And, of course, tragedy has also struck the Vancouver games even before the opening ceremonies. In my opinion, the press, like it usually does, spends way too much time on the negative - even days later. I know it's a legitimate news story, but the manner that this story was portrayed - I had a problem with.
Anyway, there are so many stories that are brought to the games - from around the world. Just when you thought that you heard every olympic story that could be told through the years, another inspiring, or heart-breaking, or motivating tale is told.
If for anything else, these two weeks of the olympic games will be a nice escape from the reality of the world that we live in - whether it be the economy, or the weather, or whatever personal challenges that we are all facing.
I hope that you get to watch some of the games over the next two weeks. Don't worry if you start to feel yourself get a little carried away with emotion, or if you find yourself shedding a tear of joy or sorrow. Even for a little bit, we can all try to feel what it's like to live an olympic dream....

Also in Austria we were awaiting the Olympic games. Not only because we hope to realize our potential which we obviously show in winter sports rather than in football ;-)))) but also because this event is indeed something special. It even didn't lose its magic in times when wars are not interrupted anymore because of the Games (as it usually happend in the Ancient world)!
Nevertheless, concerning the death of the Georgian bobber, I had the strong impression that Austrian media did their best to avoid this accident in their reports as often as possible. This horrible accident was mentioned only one time apropos of nothing, nearly between the lines. Even if such negative press is not convenient for the Games in Canada I nevertheless think that this athlete like any other individual earns a respectful act of mentioning. And I feel that this did not happen - at least not in Austria.

Difference between revisions of "IP27"
m (Point ftp link to correct directory)
m (SGI Category)
|Line 24:
|Line 24:
Revision as of 06:54, 8 October 2010
IP27 is SGI's software architecture name for the system marketed under the names Origin 200, Origin 2000 and Onyx 2. IP27 is a ccNUMA architecture. The Origin 300, Origin 3000, Octane systems are architecturally similar.
Processor Options
IP27 systems are equipped with R10000 processors at clock rates from 180Mhz and R12000 processors at 250MHz. As a rare feature different processors and versions are permitted to be used mixed in a system which makes assembling a system from components or field maintenance drastically easier. The sole restriction is that both processors on a node board have to use the same clock speed.
Networking Options
IP27 systems come with an IOC3 network card on the mainboard; additional IOC3 cards may be present in the system in form of MENET XIO cards or IOC3 PCI cards. Linux supports the IOC3 but performance is rather moderate to say the least.
Storage Options
By standard IP27 systems are equipped with two Qlogic ISP1020 SCSI hostadapter per module. Origin 200 systems have space for 6 3.5″ internal drives on the primary SCSI bus and 2 internal 5.25″ half height or 1 full height device on the second.
ARC firmware
IP27 uses a 64-bit implementation of the ARC firmware which is only capable of booting 64-bit ELF files.
Linux Support
IP27 is supported by Linux 2.4 and Linux 2.6. Due to vastly superior properties of Linux 2.6 on such large systems Linux 2.6 is urgently recommended for IP27 systems. Due to the size of typical systems and properties of the IP27 architecture only 64-bit kernels make sense and are supported. Linux 2.6 requires a small patch in addition to the CVS kernel. The patch is available from ftp://ftp.linux-mips.org/pub/linux/mips/people/ralf/ip27/.
Serious fun
In early 2001 an Origin 2000 became one of the first 32 processor systems to run Linux. A little later Linux did boot on an 128 processor Origin 2000. It took like two month until a Alpha-based Wildfire system did beat that record with it's 128GB of RAM. But the record of 128 processors did stay for over two years. Here some bootup messages.

Bernard Jeffrey McCullough (October 5, 1957 – August 9, 2008), better known by his stage name Bernie Mac, was an American actor and comedian. Born and raised on the South Side of Chicago, Mac gained popularity as a stand-up comedian. He joined comedians Steve Harvey, Cedric the Entertainer, and D.L. Hughley as The Original Kings of Comedy.
After briefly hosting the HBO show Midnight Mac,and WHO U WIT, Mac appeared in several films in smaller roles. His most noted film role was as Frank Catton in the remake Ocean's Eleven and its two sequels and the titular character Mr. 3000. He was the star of The Bernie Mac Show, which ran from 2001-2006, earning him two Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series. His other films included starring roles in Friday, Bad Santa, Head of State, Pride, Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, Guess Who, Madagascar 2 and Soul Men which was one of his final films.
Mac suffered from sarcoidosis, an inflammatory lung disease that produces tiny lumps of cells in the body's organs, but had said the condition was in remission in 2005. Despite having the disease, his death in mid-2008 was caused by complications from pneumonia.

60 seconds with Craig Botham on China volatility and currency depreciation
The outlook for China's economy remains opaque, but Craig Botham says recent market volatility has been driven by technical factors and a big devaluation for the currency remains some way off.
Technicals drive China slide
The year started off very poorly in the Chinese market. Equities fell 7% on the first day of the year and continued to fall over the next few days.
Furthermore, some weak data triggered concerns of a new leg down in the Chinese economy.
In our view, the market leg down has been mainly driven by technical factors and has almost no relationship at all to economic fundamentals.
As we saw in the rally at the start of last year and the subsequent slump, it has been driven much more by sentiment and speculation than by any real solid economic data.
Big devaluation on the cards?
The other potential area for concern is the currency.
We have seen a great deal of depreciation, particularly compared to the historic standard for China.
Investors are worried that we will see a big devaluation.
We think that a gradual depreciation is more likely, but this can still be quite negative for the world economy, because it means you can get deflation exported from China to the rest of the world.
But still, the more disruptive scenario of a big devaluation seems some way off.

Hello. I'm new in OOP so this might have an easy answer.
I have an abstract class with a lot of functionality. The functionality I'm interested in are 2 methods.
One public object[] getF(object[]) that takes an array of objects, simulates all of them multithreaded and returns the same array objects with the results in their properties.
And one other public object getF(object) that takes only one object of the same type, makes it an array[1] and send it to the first method. It also returns the same object with the result.
I have 2 inherited classes of the abstract class. The first takes some properties, builds an object of the 2nd class and gets the results from it.
The 2nd class is an optimization algorithm which builds an object and sends it to the getF(object) method of the abstract class. Takes back the result, calculates the next one etc until it finishes and sends the result to the 1st class.
What I want to do is to build in the 1st class (or a new one) that builds more than one objects of the 2nd class. When I do this, every object of the 2nd class simulates onethreaded because every one of them calls getF(object). I want them to call a getF method which waits until it gets object from every 2nd class object and then send them to getF(object[]) for multithreaded operation. When it finishes it should return the results to the correct 2nd class object.
How can I do this?
