Happy Birthday to Plaza Sesamo's Abelardo!
Another week, another birthday to celebrate here at Sesame Workshop! This week it's the birthday of Abelardo, the big, curious green parrot who appears on Plaza Sesamo, the Latin American version of Sesame Street. Although Abelardo has been on the show since 1973, he's only 4-years-old. He shares the optimism and happiness of his cousin Big Bird, but he's also very interested in the world around him and loves to learn. He's still learning how to read, but like kids his age he does know the letters of the alphabet. Despite his size, he's very agile: Abelardo loves to dance, exercise and even roller skate. And did you know that, unlike most of the Sesame Street and Plaza Sesamo MuppetsTM, Abelardo has a last name? His full name is Abelardo Montoya.
To learn more about Abelardo and all the ways Plaza Sesamo MuppetsTM are bringing the building blocks of education to millions of children across Latin America, click here.

GB : We have come to know that Ryse has been pushed to the next-gen xbox
Not going to lie, if this is true, I'm both pretty damn disappointed and pretty damn excited at the same time. [IF TRUE] Crytek pretty much confirmed that they are working on stuff for the NeXbox. [ELSE] I'm still REALLY looking forward to this new IP.
Guess we'll have to wait and see.
If that's the case (I'd still take it with a pinch of salt for now) I wonder if it's the hardware or more specifically, a next-gen Kinect that they need/want.
Because lets be honest, the current Kinect just isn't responsive and accurate enough for any real grand AAA expectations.
Ridiculously smart move by Crytek. The benefit that Epic Games's engine business got from their parternship with MS on Gears of War was both obvious and huge. They are obviously trying to reap the same benefit from Xbox 3 for themselves.
Also this is interesting for a number or reasons. 1, it all but proves that the next Xbox will have a Kinect like device. 2, Suggests 2012 release of the next Xbox. 3, shows that Crytek are getting into tablet games as well.
Good, crytek will get to flex their muscle again. Me and the rest of the modding community had to mod crysis 2 up to pc standards, eventually after adding high res textures, new tod, better shadows, DOF, parrallax occlusion mapping, tessalation and DX 11, crysis 2 looks amazing.

To the Editor:
I'm rather tired of the remarks about flea markets and tattoo parlors in McHenry that are simply unfair.
I don't know about the tattoo places, but have you ever been to one of the flea markets? They have many items – new and used – and it is enjoyable to walk around, see the items and visit with the vendors.
The booths are kept neat and clean, and the vendors are polite, friendly and helpful. You won't meet a nicer bunch of people. They are just trying to make a living like the rest of us.
My sister and I go about twice a month to look for treasures. On more than one occasion, they have given us a booth at no cost to collect donations for our organization – Freedom Branches, to take veterans to Washington, D.C. In fact, the Fox River Flea Market continues to have a table filled with items from the vendors, which the donations are given to us.
There are many empty buildings in McHenry and having them fill these two is an asset to our community. Stop in and say hi. You just might find a treasure of your own.

FY 2009 University System Economic Impact Estimated at $3.7 billion

FY 2009 University System Economic Impact Estimated at $3.7 billion
BISMARCK, N.D. - The economic impact of the North Dakota University System and its students on the state has risen dramatically over the past 10 years and now stands at an estimated $3.7 billion for Fiscal Year 2009, according to a recent report by North Dakota State University's Department of Agribusiness and Applied Economics.
Economic Impact of the North Dakota University System
, the FY 2009 report is similar to studies conducted for FY 1999, FY 2004, FY 2006 and FY 2008. Report authors F. Larry Leistritz, Dean A. Bangsund and Randall Coon use the North Dakota Input-Output Model to estimate economic impact.
"In addition to providing education, the state's universities and colleges create and support jobs and employment opportunities through research, extension and teaching activities," the authors concluded. "All these important services and products provide economic benefits, which enhance local and state economies. Essentially, the state's 11 University System colleges, universities and supporting centers and facilities act as centers for local and regional economic development."
"Higher education is a driving force in our state's vibrant economy," said Bill Goetz, chancellor of the University System. "It is the foundation for personal and professional success and for enhancing the state's quality of life. The economic impact report validates the connectivity between a strong University System and a strong North Dakota.
"Economic growth and diversity is dependent upon a strong higher education system," Goetz said. "Investments in higher education flow back out to North Dakota as a contributor to economic growth."
Key measures of the economic impact of the North Dakota University System in FY 2009 include:
In FY 2009, the NDUS injected $980 million into local economies, including $706 million from non-general fund sources such as grants, contracts, donations, etc.
With an added $327 million in student spending, excluding tuition and fees, the direct economic impact is estimated at more than $1.3 billion.
When turned over in the economy, the estimated NDUS total annual economic impact was $3.7 billion.
Combining direct and secondary economic effects from general and non-general funds created a gross business volume of $2.9 billion in 2009, compared to $1.6 billion in FY 1999. The $2.9 billion included $709 million in retail trade activity and $1.1 billion in personal income.
Increased business activity generated by student spending was estimated at $813 million, which included $368 million in retail trade activity and $197 million in personal income, supporting about 3,800 secondary jobs.
For every dollar of state-appropriated funds, the state's colleges and universities generate more than $2.50 from external sources.
The North Dakota Input-Output Model estimates secondary impacts based on NDUS direct expenditures. The model estimates the changes in gross business volume (gross receipts) for all sectors of the area economy.

News Release
Missouri Firm Recalls Lasagna Products Due To Misbranding and Undeclared Allergen
Congressional and Public Affairs
Richard J. McIntire
(202) 720-9113
WASHINGTON, June 3, 2013 – Vocci Italian Food Products, a Kansas City, Mo. establishment is recalling approximately 2,025 pounds of lasagna products because of misbranding and an undeclared allergen. The products are formulated with bread crumbs that contain egg, a known allergen, which is not declared on the label.
The products subject to recall include:
- 5-lb. steamer tin pans of "VOCCI ITALIAN FOODS BEEF LASAGNA" bearing the establishment number "EST. 5789" inside the USDA mark of inspection on the label.
- 20-lb. cases containing four, 5-lb. steamer tin pans of "VOCCI ITALIAN FOODS BEEF LASAGNA" bearing the establishment number "EST. 5789" inside the USDA mark of inspection on the label.
The products were produced on various dates between Nov. 16, 2012 and May 8, 2013 and were sold to foodservice institutions in the Kansas City, Kan. and Kansas City, Mo. metropolitan area. The product is intended for use in restaurants or institutional food operations; it is not sold in retail grocery stores.
The problem was discovered by an FSIS inspector who conducted a label review prompted by the April 30, 2013, release of FSIS Notice 29-13. FSIS took the step of issuing the notice in an effort to protect vulnerable consumers after observing an increase in the number of products recalled from 2008 through 2012 due to the presence of undeclared allergens or other ingredients. FSIS personnel are responsible for verifying that establishments are actively labeling the eight most common food allergens.
FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about a reaction should contact a healthcare provider.
FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers.
Consumers and media with questions about the recall should contact Chuk Lowry, a company consumer contact, at 816-221-2026.
Consumers with food safety questions can "Ask Karen," the FSIS virtual representative available 24 hours a day at AskKaren.gov or via smartphone at m.askkaren.gov. "Ask Karen" live chat services are available Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET. The toll-free USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) is available in English and Spanish and can be reached from l0 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Eastern Time) Monday through Friday. Recorded food safety messages are available 24 hours a day.
Affected States
|USDA Recall Classifications
|Class I
|This is a health hazard situation where there is a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences or death.
|Class II
|This is a health hazard situation where there is a remote probability of adverse health consequences from the use of the product.
|Class III
|This is a situation where the use of the product will not cause adverse health consequences.

Dudley Kingswinford 14, Sedgley Park 48
DESPITE suffering their 28th straight defeat of the season, the DK's shouldn't be too downhearted.
There was much to admire about this latest setback, especially in the second half when there was a real danger the floodgates would open.
The Dk's didn't help their cause when they had second row pairing of skipper Ed Parry and Nick Murphy both sent to the sin-bin within minutes of each other during the first half.
By half time, the DK's were 29-0 down and there was a real danger that a very impressive Sedgley Park side would run riot after the interval.
They'd already run in five tries before half time and it wouldn't have done the Dk's confidence any good when full back Andy Riley registered the opening touchdown within 75 seconds of the kick-off after winning the chase to a kick ahead.
Too many missed tackles allowed speedy El Mahdi Tahir in for a second try before flanker Jon Bishop bagged a third.
It was while DK's were down to 13 players that James Flynn produced a fourth and bonus point try for Park before outside centre Matt Riley stole over for the fifth.
DK's raised their game after the break and shocked Sedgley Park when outside centre Donovan Smile forced his way over for a try following a sustained assault on the line.
If that was a surprise, there was another in store when full back James Jefferson scored a second DK's try - his first of the season.
Gareth Bown increased the points tally with two well taken conversions.
Park responded with a try from winger Jamie Harrison before second row Louis McGowan and outstanding No.8 Matt Lamprey, who looks destined for a much higher level, took the Manchester side's try tally to eight.
Although beaten, there's just a glimmer of optimisum that the DK's could still record a win from their final two games.

Teague Addresses 200 at Prayer Breakfast
December 1, 2010 by RVBusiness · Comments Off on Teague Addresses 200 at Prayer Breakfast
The Recreation Vehicle Industry Leadership prayer breakfast guest speaker Don Teague shared a story with attendees about listening to God and how it affects people's lives. Teague, an Emmy award-winning CBS News correspondent, spoke to an audience of about 200 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel this morning (Dec. 1) during the 48th Annual RV Trade Show in Louisville, Ky.
According to a news release, though he started his remarks with wit and laughter, Teague's retelling of his ordeal in Iraq while reporting for NBC on the war was also compelling to the audience, and at times Teague himself was brought to tears when he spoke of intense experiences such as a bombing at a newly rebuilt school in Baghdad and witnessing the spiritual rebirth of Rafraf Barrak, a young woman who served as a translator for the news crew on site and whom Teague befriended. He said was so moved by her courage and her plight – she received routine beatings at home for even the most casual contact with males and was told from the age of 5 she was "bad" – he decided to try and bring her to America with him and make her part of his family.
Teague relayed he went to Iraq after much prayer from his wife and himself, believing it was what he was called to do.
"I felt something really important would happen there," he said. Even though he was afraid for his safety, he said he knew he would be protected, thinking, "It's time to press into God. He's faithful and He'll be there with me."
Teague said his faith was upheld when two bombs were planted at the school but miraculously, no one was hurt. Additionally, he said Barrak herself was kidnapped by a group of extremists with the intent to kill her, but she managed to dive from the fast-moving car and escape in the car of another motorist. After completing the "insurmountable task" of bringing a Shiite Muslim Iraqi to America, Barrak now lives with his family in Texas, where she has become a Christian and is an active member of their church.
"God always finds a way," Teague declared. "Rafraf thought she was just lucky until she realized God was pursuing her. He does that to all of us. Listen to God; he's pursuing you."
This is the first year the prayer breakfast returned after a hiatus last year due to the economic downturn.
"It was wonderful to be able to hold the breakfast again," said Carl Pletcher, coordinator of the event for RVI Leadership. "Don was a fantastic speaker and we enjoyed his story immensely."
The master of ceremonies for the event was Steve Plemmons, CEO of Bill Plemmons RV World. The invocation was said by BJ Thompson, president of BJ Thompson Associates, while Jim Huebner, president of Huebner Petersen, read scriptures and Jack Enfield, sales and marketing manager at MOR/ryde, conducted the prayer.
Gold sponsors were Wilbur Bontrager, Jayco chairman of the board and CEO; Matthew Miller, Newmar Corp. president; John Wuori, Fabric Services president and CEO; Thetford/Norcold; BJ Thompson; Marzahn & King Consulting Inc.; John Regan, Fabric Services chairman of the board; and Jim Huebner.
Silver sponsors were Jack Enfield; Steve Plemmons; John Spader, Spader Business Management Inc. president; Carl Pletcher; and Mike Keller, Keller Marine and RV president.
Bronze sponsors were Chris Craft and Chad Stoltzfus, Lake City Bank, senior vice presidents of commercial banking; Gary Shuder, Newmar Corp. vice president of finance; and Statistical Surveys Inc.
"We are so grateful to our sponsors who supported the event this year. We would not have been able to bring it back without their generosity," Pletcher stated. To be included on the mailing list or become a sponsor for next year's event, contact him at (574) 215-7173 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Illinois corn growers applaud WRDA
The Illinois Corn Growers Association is celebrating last week's passage of the federal Water Resources Development Act. The U.S. Senate is questioning the key appropriations is yet to come for long-overdue improvement of river locks and dams serving Illinois shipping.
Senators Dick Durbin and Mark Kirk are both in support of the WRDA, saying it'll open new opportunities along the major waterways.
The new legislation contains a provision for the federal government to pay 85 percent instead of 50 of the estimated $1.3 billion completion cost for the Olmsted Lock and Dam on the Ohio River at the southern end of Illinois. That will free up more money from the user-funded Inland Waterways Trust Fund for use on be used on other projects.

another rendering quirk I found is that the first element following a page break is not properly formatted
in the attached sample, there are two H1 headers with margin-top: 2em. In calibre viewer, there's some space above the headers as expected, but in cr3, they are right at the top. No spacing.

to launch Coolreader, you should press "shift", "C" and "R" one after another and quickly.
(Don't forget to add cr3.ini to your launchpad folder)

I haven't installed Coolreader yet on my Kindle and already I have a question, regarding fonts, just to be on the safe side:
Can I put any ttf file in cr3/fonts and use Coolreader to change the font? Provided, of course, that I follow the naming schedule for the fonts?
Of course I could simply try it out, but I won't be close to my Kindle for a while and I'm curious...

Well, I've tried it out anyway. In Settings I see a lot of different fonts and when I choose Times Roman and quit the Settings menu with Home, I still see the orginal Deja font. Smaller, that setting has been applied, but no Times. However, the sample in the Settings does show Times.
Can someone shed light on this?

From FAU : Original Cool Reader 3 also reveals only one book from the archives
If some books FB2 and TXT stuff in one file (say the name of the author's name serii.ZIP), opening in CoolReader by O revealed only one book (in my opinion in any order), other books from the archive will not be able to open.
I personally like this kept a lot of series that do not produce the files on the Kindle and do not delve into them for a long time looking for the right one.
The proposed solution: or open at the same time all the books in the game and give the opportunity to read them then at least through R, or as in FBKindle entering the ZIP file that is considered "directory" and enable it to choose to open the file. Moreover, if the book to a ZIP archive only one that can be opened as well now (it's convenient).

When reading the book TXT format through a single page is not displayed file name (if the name is long and does not fit completely in line before the pages for hours, per cent).

text: NEWPORT - Vermont's School Choice law, first enacted in 2000, has been amended this past legislative session to clarify capacity guidelines and set a uniform date to make annual capacity determinations.Prior to the changes, a school district could establish formal agreements with area school districts to allow students to attend a school outside their home district. NCUHS has such an arrangement with both Canaan High School and Lake Region Union High School, allowing up to 15 students between the schools combined to transfer to North Country. The new statutes establish transfer limits for schools based on grades 9-12 enrollment as of October 1st. A cap of 10% or 40 students, whichever is smaller, are the minimum limits a school can accept from other school districts. The transfer limits for Lake Region will be set at 30, and Canaan High School will have a limit of 10 students. The new cap will go into effect in school year 2014/15. For more on School Choice changes, see page 1 of Tuesday's Newport Daily Express for Jan. 22, 2013.

Isn't it sad that Nokia screwed both themselves and their customers by not pushing the N9 like it deserves. I did call them idiots basically in an email when the Ovi store wouldn't work for me one day. They said that the phone wasn't supported in the US, so I replied back and told them that they were foolish to adopt Windows as a platform because Windows itself already has a horrible reputation formed over the past 20 years of being a buggy, crash prone, and virus infested pile of crap that people are forced to use on computers, so they don't want it on their phones, and that they should have pushed the N9 in every market, because that is where the future is at, with Qt and Symbian.
They only replied saying they'd keep it under advisement. Ha ha!

Greetings! I know I haven't posted anything in a while, but that is mainly because everything I have built in the last year has went into this project. I took each building, tree, and portion of landscape as a separate project.
I worked to coordinate with Jordan (AK Brickster) and I think it turned out quite well as everyone thought it was one project. We had a ton of fun and Castle swept the Best in show award with Alice Finch's insane Hogwarts taking the top prize.
Hope you all enjoy!

1. Approval MappingsJayant Dusane May 28, 2012 12:42 AM (in response to Deepti Asthana)
Hi Deepti,
Did you try with following?
- You can use Parent Child type of approval for first level of Approval.
- For 2nd level of approval you use AdHoc approval mapping
Let us know if it works....
2. Re: Approval MappingsRaju Mangali May 28, 2012 12:55 AM (in response to Deepti Asthana)
Hi Deepti,
Please open Application Administrator Console --> Custom Configurations -- Service Request Management -->
Approvals -- from here you can select Approval Chain
And you can configure Approvals For Individual or Group or Inherit Group or Role for Service Request and also Servvice Request Definition.
Raju M.
3. Approval MappingsShantanu Ballal May 28, 2012 12:52 AM (in response to Deepti Asthana)
Hi Deepti,
From the Application Administrator Console->Custom Configuration->SRM->Approval Chain you can configure your custom approval process where you can define the first process for the requesters manager and if he approves then you can move to the next process for the cost center approval manager. After configuring these processes you can map the individuals for the specific SRD's. Approval server will process these mappings according to your custom approval process configurations.
4. Approval MappingsDeepti Asthana May 28, 2012 1:39 AM (in response to Jayant Dusane)
Thanks JD for the reply,
In your scenarion we have to manually add the approver which is not the condition in my case. I have to automate the process
5. Approval MappingsDeepti Asthana May 28, 2012 2:32 AM (in response to Deepti Asthana)
Some points to add here.
In Approval chain form i first selected the Process type as Parent-Child which will ensure that requesters immediate approver is the first person to approve the request
Next different stages get visible under that process(Approved,Rejected,Cancelled,Error)
Now as per the pdf we can use set field action to specify the action at every stage
As far my understanding i need to define the set field action at the approved stage.Not sure though
In selection criteria i defined the categories for which this approval will be applicable

Is that a smile I detect on George's septuagenarian visage?Lonesome George may end bachelor days on Galapagos
Tue Jul 22, 2008 12:23am EDT By Alonso Soto
QUITO, July 21 (Reuters) - After decades of solitude, "Lonesome George" may finally save his species of Galapagos giant tortoise from extinction, his keepers said on Monday.
George, a Pinta island tortoise who has shown little interest in reproducing during 36 years in captivity, stunned his keepers by mating with one of his two female companions of a similar species of Galapagos tortoise.
Park rangers found a nest with several eggs in George's pen and placed three in incubators. It will take about four months to know whether the eggs bear George's offspring.
"Even if these three eggs are fertile and the born tortoises survive it will take several (genetic) generations to think of having a Pinta purebred ... even centuries," the park said in a statement.
After trying almost everything from artificial insemination to having George watch younger males mate, his keepers had nearly lost hope. At 60 to 90 years old, George is in his sexual prime and should be able to reproduce.
Scientists found a distant relative of George on another island last year, sparking hopes of another male for mating with some Pinta genes.
The visual differences of tortoises from different islands were among the features of the Galapagos that helped British naturalist Charles Darwin formulate his theory of evolution.
George, considered by many the world's rarest creature and a conservation icon, was thought to be the last of his kind after fishermen and pirates slaughtered his species for food.
Ecuador has declared the islands at risk and the United Nations says efforts to protect them should continue. Some 20,000 giant tortoises of various species now live on the islands.

Denise Moreno was awakened Sunday night by a frightening phone call from her son Tony, who asked her to come to the Arrigoni Bridge.
She could hear her 7-month-old grandson, Aaden, crying. Tony told her to come collect a phone with pictures of the baby, and to "just tell everyone I'm sorry."
Denise Moreno got in the car with her other son, Aaron, and raced desperately to the bridge as she called 911, according to court records released Wednesday. Once on the bridge, they saw Tony standing alone near the railing, and within seconds two police officers arrived.
One of the officers shouted to Tony, telling him to stop, but he kept walking. He put both hands onto...

Movimento Difesa del Cittadino
We are an independent consumers association operating in Italy in more then 50 cities. We are starting up a web project finalized to keep the citizens informed about any resolution made by European Parlament, and how these resolution involve in everyday life of common citizens.
the target audience of this web site is every italian citizens who is interested in defending his own rights in front of the multinationals companies and the governaments. Moreover the press and the pubblic administrations itself are a target of this website.
We do require a layout for a home page of the site, for which we provide the wireframe in attach. The page must be provided of a certer page area that we conventionally call "contents area" able to alternately include a video with a short textual description or an article with a picture.
In both cases, the content area will be provided of a "comment area" just above the article or the video.
We do not require any develop of html or other kind of code, but only the graphic design executive of the page eventually in the two versions above described.
Actually the project requires also a logo that can even be just a lettering of the title "Europainrete".
This web site will live as a section of an existing website which you can find at http://www.mdc.it. That doesn't mean the graphic desing have to be the same as the chief site, but at least coordinate.
We need a design really simple and institutional as the site will speak the language of the citizens but will concern about the European Parlament, so a sober style will be most suitable.
The page must be One framed, if the content area need more space becouse of the quantity of text or of comments, the whole page must scroll and the footer must keep in the bottom of the page.
Please keep in mind the colours of European flag as the primary colours on which define the project.
it is important to keep in mind that the website we are working on is a section of this http://www.mdc.it, so although it must have a proper desing project we will appreciate a coordinated solution

Remembering Tunisia 2012: The Jasmine Pioneer One Year Later
Masses of Tunisians marched in peaceful triumph Saturday Jan 14, 2012, to mark the one-year anniversary of the revolution that ended the dictatorship of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali — and indisputably sparked uprisings around the Arab world. Arab dignitaries too were out for the occasion of professing their pro-revolution stance, joining their hands in recognizing the momentous events that precipitated an Arab Spring.
All attended an event at Palais des Congres in downtown Tunis Saturday 14 January.
Perhaps the revelers marching the streets were celebrating the rise of the will of the populace and the demonstration (or demo). This new found, no-longer secret, weapon of people willpower was well and truly out of the bag. The proverbial genie, more aptly for the region, was out of the bottle. The leaders were variously honoring their own journeys and participations in the whirlwind and drawn-out conflicts. Continue reading below »
This was a moment to really absorb how one Tunisian's (everyman's) impotent rage- turned suicidal despair-- planted strategically in the public gaze (aided and abetted by FaceBook) had changed the history of Tunisia and no doubt their Middle East. The rest as they say is history...
People wrath
Anger from the masses expressed peacefully, albeit vociferously and explosively, had led leaders to move aside, or keel over, feeling keenly the distress of their failure to appease this people wave of objection against their unpopularity.
Ousting of a dictator aside, what was the significance of January 14? Had this national day now appropriated as a pan-Arab day been about the run-away Arab leader, or was it a moment to pause and take stock of where 'changed' Arab states were actually heading?
One year on from commemorating one year since the success of the "Jasmine revolution", Tunisian people are looking at their achievements proudly and with hope.
Before January 2011, Tunisia was known for its progressive measures of development and healthy social conditions (among the best in the MENA), more liberal social norms, a strong middle class and gender equality to boot, all as come about by the first Tunisian dictator after 'independence'. Still, these apparent advances did not preclude a stifling political system. While the political system is about to breathe the new air of democracy once again, there is still a long way to go to declaring 'better times'.
Such is the remaining struggle on their hands that in fact celebrations were almost marred by the current of distress felt economically in a Tunisia of unemployment and debt (not helped by the outstanding embezzled funds of the former regime who grew fat off the land or state).
The new heirs of 'Carthage' have now inherited the good, and the residual bad, that has not gone away over night.
The revolution and the neighboring Libyan crisis have had a negative impact on the short-term economic outlook, particularly in the area of tourism and foreign direct investment. Tunisia's GDP, once on the rise, is now set to slow down, notably aggrevating the rate of unemployment. Despite these short-term challenges, Tunisia's economic outlook remains positive. The pace of growth is expected to increase with alliances with Europe and across the Mediterranean, maybe even with the GCC.
Remembering one man:
On 17 December 20II Mohammad Bouzizi, a street vendor from Sidi Bouzid a town on the margins of Tunisia set himself on fire as an act of despair. This tragic incident has sparked off marathon protest movements all over the country in a national revolt, that soon became a pan-Arab revolt of sorts once it reached neighbors.These revolutions were without leaders nor a clear ideology. What they were was a quest for freedom, dignity and more and more regionally and the world over, a hunger for employment.
For Tunisia, four weeks of confrontation were enough to tip the former President to the edge, admitting faintly his mistakes as he abruptly fled the country on Friday January 14, 2011. Egypt's too was all over in under 3 weeks. These were the fast and furious revolutions. Others in the region have been more protracted.
This man's burning proves that an impotent outrage can affect the highest echelons of power and the domino effect is still alive.
One year after of the necessity to be united and rational in order to establish new legitimate institutions, Tunisians saw succeeding smoothly and peacefully one another three interim governments before legal and transparent election of constituent assembly was organized on October 23 2011. December saw the new President signing on to his new office.
"The Assembly consists of Two hundred seventeen members who represent a multitude of political parties and independents what reflects dynamism and diversity of the post-revolution political landscape and is set to draft a new constitution watching with the expectations of new generations of 21 century."
Tunisia today watches over a rich coalition of three political parties: Ennahdha - an Islamist wing, often compared to the Muslim Brotherhood; with leftist elements between the Congress for the Republic (CPR), and the Democratic Forum for Labor and Liberties (Ettakatol's). Together, these three have formalized a power-sharing agreement to rule the country until the new constitution will be finalized.
The new Government will tackle, collectively, urgent goals including restoring people's right and ensuring justice by the families of martyrs, establishing a healthy development inter-regionally, and meeting expectations in issues of employment and decent life choice, particularly for youth and new graduates. Already they are placing progressive measures in place including but not restricting to the pardon of prisoners.
Tunisia greeted the anniversary with prudent optimism, amid worries about high unemployment that cast a shadow over their pride at transforming the country.
Now a human rights activist of the most erudite degree man is president, and a moderate Islamist jailed for years by the old regime is prime minister at the head of a diverse coalition, after the freest elections in Tunisia's history.
As the country that started the Arab Spring, Tunisia appears to be the farthest along in its transformation. Political analysts warn, however, that further gains will not be easy or painless.
The new leader Moncef Marzouki "cautiously optimistic" for Tunisia's development, but remains worried about the country's economic and social situation. It's unclear, too, what the Islamists who won the elections will do with their power.
Does it mean that a country is free once revolutionised?
Tunisia's journey to obtain freedom from authortarian rule infected the creative conscience of the revolution that took hold in the region and even managed to inspire the world to participate in the spirit of protest.
To end on a pertinent and home-grown note for Tunisia, Al Jazeera said it well:
"January 14 stands for the enactment of popular will. The revolution Tunisia staged and won is the gift of that will."
As CNN reported
"Each year thousands of young men and women from north Africa try to enter Europe illegally, looking for a better life.
They call themselves "harraka" -- which translates as "the burners" -- because the first thing they do when they reach Europe is to set fire to their passports and documents to avoid being sent back home. Many in Tunisia now see Al Bouazizi as a "harraka" -- but in his own way."
Linguistic triumph: Tunis 'hurra' (is free) and 'thawra' (revolution)
Al Bawaba casts its own predictions into the mix, and sees a future enriched with new Arabic terminology to add to the more popularly attributed 'Algebra' and so forth.
A new lexicon from the Arab language is set to infect the fast-growing landscape of world-English and internet 'urban English' that is already picking up, spreading virally like wild-fire.

Sorry, wrong again, you were on the right track the first time. ;-)
Here's my understanding of their situation: The Open Graphics project wants to build a graphics card, but the fabrication is insanely expensive. They built a flexible board that, from the spec's, can do graphics. (See also, "late binding" in the context of computer programming languages.)
The financial reasoning is that they can sell these boards to any tinkerer, student, or even a professional hardware engineer. Not to ignore video performance that's now merely acceptable, it's so much more than a video card that they will cover their costs when (I hope) people soak them up as fast as they're made. We need more stuff like this for hobbyists to disrupt the market.

Quote: Three thousand years of Western philosophy and theoretical science would tend to speak against this point.
Quote:Debates which are just used to communicate ideas between a group of person which share a common interest are usually not constructive because their are no goals to achieve and no finality. Most of the time, this is only to evaluate your amount of knowledges on a subject with other individuals. You might feel intelligent, but you've done nothing concrete and the things you learn in a debate might probably be learnt faster alone if you put the effort. The second form of debate is when there is something at stake. Work debates, political debates, couple debate, there is something to be decided which involves many persons. Work debate sometimes involve a moderator. This is the form I was thinking about when I wrote this post. A polemic is more an open mental fight. A debate is usually more diplomatic. An intelligent discussion is more effective. Which is really diffucult to acheive when you are intelligent, I conceit.

Minnesota band with roots in box of cereal is still feeling its oats in the Brooklyns
Anna Pratt, Special to the Star Tribune
It's said that a box of cereal led to the formation of the Brooklyn Community Band.
A Brooklyn Center resident named Jim Stumpfa reported to General Mills that he found "something unusual" in his cereal, according to an old newspaper clipping on the topic. A company representative, John Larson, went to Stumpfa's home to hand-deliver a fresh box.
While Larson was there, a saxophone in the living room caught his eye. The two men got to talking about music, and it wasn't long before the band was born.
That was 50 years ago, and the Brooklyn Community Band is still going strong. The group, co-sponsored by Brooklyn Center and Brooklyn Park, is wrapping up its summer concert season with a performance on Monday, July 29, at the Town Green Band Shell in Maple Grove. That will be followed by an anniversary party, said band director Jane Ruohoniemi.
In honor of its milestone, the band will play an original work by Minnesota composer Timothy Mahr titled "Golden Opportunity." The band received a $5,000 grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council that made the commissioned work possible.
In addition to the band's golden anniversary, the title alludes to the notion that "we're still looking for opportunities to improve and be better," said Ruohoniemi, who played drums in the band in the late 1980s.
The band is performing the piece at each of its concerts this year, along with several Minnesota-themed selections and other favorites from its archives. "It's a year of remembering," Ruohoniemi said.
Keeping it fun
The band fluctuates between 35 and 45 members ranging in age from 18 to 85. Members are supposed to be high school graduates, although in a jam exceptions occasionally are made. For example, more percussion players are needed, so Ruohoniemi's teenage son, Brian, is playing in that section.
The group doesn't do auditions. It's about keeping it "lighthearted and fun," Ruohoniemi said. "Band members don't want to practice 10 hours a day."
One player hadn't picked up her instrument in 40 years when she joined the band. "She said she only knew three notes," Ruohoniemi said. "She was real nervous for a long time."
Ruohoniemi told her, " 'Just don't play the riffs you don't know, till you get your chops back.' The next year I had her playing solos."
She encourages others to do the same. "Music is a gift to everyone," she said. Helping people tap into that, "That's where our niche in the world is."
Looking back
Sally Schilling, a clarinet player with the band since 1970, has recently become its informal historian. She's filled up two big albums with ephemera from the band's 50 years, which she's been lugging to its concerts.
The albums contain newspaper clippings, concert photos, announcements for events at local nursing homes, parks and other community centers, and even weddings.
Schilling remembers one performance when it was pouring rain. "We played only for ourselves," she said. Another time, it was over 100 degrees, and only one person attended.
"We've had a lot of fun through the years," Schilling said. But the group also has had funding struggles and at one point, it looked as if it would call it quits. That's when "the Lions Club bailed us out," she said.
Members do they're part; the band is all-volunteer and participants pay membership fees.
A family tradition
Mary Sorenson grew up going to band concerts as a youngster in the mid-70s. Both of her parents and several other family members spent many years in the band. So it was only natural that after she graduated from high school in 1981, she would continue the tradition.
She wasn't the best of flute players when she started out, but "I got better over the years," she said.
Besides, nobody's ego gets in the way, Sorenson said. "Everyone gets along. People help each other out. It's a good, cohesive group."
And it's an opportunity to meet people from all walks of life who share a love for music.
Given that "there are so many changes in life, with people moving around, job changes. It's neat to have something constant," Sorenson said.
Two charter members
Carol Abild, a charter member, joined the band at her sister-in-law's urging. She'd been a tuba player in high school, but the then-12-member band had four tubas, so she switched to the French horn.
Her mother, who had played piano for silent movies, instilled a love of music in her. For Abild and her siblings, "It wasn't a question of whether we would play an instrument, but which one," she said.
She's stayed with it because "it's just a constant enjoyment of music, learning new pieces," she said.
Another founding member, drummer Donald Severson Sr., signed up after seeing an advertisement. His wife, Mickey, was a tuba player in the band early on, as well.
Severson took a hiatus at one point when work got busy, then returned to the band nearly a dozen years ago. "It was a strange experience. I had the music, my hands responded to what I could see," he said. "I got used to it again. It's like riding a bicycle. It comes back."
The band is fun but also offers a sense of accomplishment, he said. "There's something, an ineffable feeling, on a rare occasion, when everything seems to go right. You're in a group and all of a sudden, you become one."

Corsual's Brotatoe writes: " Rockstar Games has done incredibly well with their Grand Theft Auto series, it was critically reviewed and denounced as an "evil" game on its release back in 1996 for the PC, yet they managed to still sell 8 million copies when Vice City came out.
Like other violent games that changed the way people looked at video games, Grand Theft Auto has been the scapegoat for numerous bad dealings in human interactions since it was released and will most likely continue to catch the same amount of spotlight regarding it's generally violent nature and the ability to do anything you want as a player.
There has always been, and will always be some sort of spotlight on Grand Theft Auto as being one of the coolest free roam, open world games to ever be released, but also one of the most controversial games that continues to stay on the shelves today..."
yes, it will change your view of life and everything in the universe. /s
seriously now, looking forward to this so badly.

Queensland driver Will Power admits he struggled with the spectre of past near misses before finally securing the IndyCar championship he craved in California.
A three-time runner-up, including heartbreaking crashes in the final race of the season in 2010 and 2012, Power finally landed the IndyCar title with a ninth-place finish in the 500-mile season finale on Sunday.
The 33-year-old sobbed as he crossed the finishing line at the Auto Club Fontana super-speedway, one of the locations of his final day heartbreaks in the past.
He's the first Australian to get his hands on the Astor Cup, a trophy which bears the likeness of every American open-wheel champion since 1909.
Holding a 50-point championship lead and starting from a lowly 20th on the grid, Power overcame his pre-race nerves to methodically claw his way up the field.
The Australian briefly led the race following a late restart, but when main championship rival Helio Castroneves was given a drive-through penalty with 30 laps to go in the 250-lap race, he knew the title was in his grasp.
"That was one of the hardest races ever. Oh my god. I was crying over the line," Power said.
"I'm so mentally exhausted now. My hands are numb from holding on to the wheel so tight.
"I want to be a lot more excited but I'm so drained right now. I can't believe I've won it."
Power said his wife Liz, who watched the race nervously alongside his mother Marge in the pits, had endured the brunt of his emotional battle in the past couple of weeks.
"The last 14 days have been the worst in my life, just mentally, just emotionally, just so bad," he said.
"Not sleeping, stressing. I feel bad for my wife, keeping her up at night.
"You never think it can happen until it happens."
Castroneves eventually finished in 14th, with compatriot Tony Kanaan taking out the win.
It's the fourth time Castroneves has finished as the championship runner-up.
"Well done Will. You're the champ man," he said of his Penske teammate.
Power's title win is the first major international motorsport championship win by an Australian on four wheels since Alan Jones' Formula One world title in 1980.
"That's 15 years of hard work," Power said.
"I started taking it seriously in 2000 and (that's) just 15 years of hard work."

BOURNE – The ink's not dry, but a settlement has been drawn up between firefighter Richard Doherty and the town in the lawsuit he filed in federal court contesting his termination.
On Nov. 20, U.S. District Court in Boston was notified that the matter had been settled among Doherty, the town and Town Administrator Thomas Guerino, who also was named in the suit, according to court documents.
In February 2011, Doherty, a 16-year veteran of the Bourne Fire Department, was fired for comments he posted on his Facebook page ridiculing his superiors, officials in town and residents.
In the next few months Doherty appealed his firing to the state Civil Service Commission and the Labor Relations Board and filed the federal lawsuit that is the subject of the settlement.
On July 23, U.S. District Judge George A. O'Toole Jr. ruled that the case would be mediated rather than settled through a trial.
The details of the settlement – including how much money Doherty will be paid – are confidential until a written agreement has been signed by both parties, Bourne Town Counsel Robert Troy of Sandwich said. The sides have 60 days to make the agreement official.
The cost of settling with Doherty will not be passed on to taxpayers, said John Ford, chairman of the Bourne Board of Selectmen.
"We won't be going for any money at town meetings," he said. "It's not something we have to worry about. ... The settlement is good, so the town is happy."
Guerino declined to comment until the settlement agreement is made public.
Doherty's attorneys, Harold Lichten and Sara Smolik of Boston, did not return messages seeking comment.
Because the Nov. 20 settlement is a "global" agreement among the parties, it also resolves two other suits pending between Doherty and the town, Troy said.
Doherty filed an appeal of his termination March 1, 2011, with the state Civil Service Commission, a quasi-governmental agency that handles disciplinary hearings for public employees.
In June, the commission sided with Doherty, ruling that he didn't deserve to lose his job. It instead imposed a 15-month suspension, which he had served by that time. The town appealed the ruling in Superior Court.
Doherty also filed a labor complaint against the town with the state's Labor Relations Board, which ruled in July 2011 that he deserved a hearing to determine whether the Facebook posts he was fired for might constitute protected free speech. Doherty served as a Bourne firefighters union official for several years.
After two years of contentious relations with Doherty, once the settlement is signed the town's involvement with him will be over, Troy said – aside from his retirement checks. Doherty officially retired June 16, according to town records.
Firefighter, Bourne settle in long-running dispute
BOURNE – The ink's not dry, but a settlement has been drawn up between firefighter Richard Doherty and the town in the lawsuit he filed in federal court contesting his termination.

The Knockout Mouse Project (KOMP) is a trans-National Institutes of Health (NIH) initiative that aims to generate a comprehensive and public resource comprised of mice containing a null mutation in every gene in the mouse genome. (See: The NIH Knockout Mouse Project Website [nih.gov])
By capitalizing on efficiencies of scale and a centralized production effort, the project intends to make this catalog of mutants available in mouse strain C57BL/6 for two reasons: it is the most widely used strain, and it is the strain for which complete genome sequence has been made available. This concept for the KOMP was developed at an international workshop held at the Banbury Center in the autumn of 2003 (and published in Nature Genetics, September 2004 (Austin, et al). The meeting attendees agreed that such a comprehensive resource of null mutants would greatly benefit the biomedical research community and enhance our understanding of human disease.
Acting on the outcome of this meeting, the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) organized a working group of NIH Institute and Center representatives to plan the role that NIH should play in implementing this goal. In developing the NIH KOMP plan, this working group considered the current state of the field and recommendations from members of mouse research community made during a second workshop in March 2005. (See NIH Planning Meeting for a Knockout Mouse Project)
The University of California, Davis (UC Davis) and Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI) in Oakland, Calif., will collaborate to preserve, protect and make available knockout mice and related products available to the research community. Specifically, the repository will archive, maintain and distribute up to 8,500 strains of embryonic stem cell clones, live mouse lines, frozen embryos and sperm and vectors - while assuring product quality and availability for all materials. More information about the KOMP resources is available at www.komp.org. To request information or products, researchers can call 1-888-KOMP-MICE or e-mail email@example.com.
The KOMP Data Coordination Center (DCC) Website can be found at www.knockoutmouse.org. The KOMP Data Coordination Center is being established in close collaboration with all members of the KOMP Research Network. The KOMP DCC is centered at The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine and is led by Dr. Martin Ringwald along with Drs. Jim Kadin, Janan Eppig and Carol Bult. The primary goals of the DCC are as follows:
NIH has contracts with Deltagen, Inc. and Lexicon Genetics, Inc. to provide access to 256 lines of knockout mice that have been extensively characterized. For each mouse line, the contractors have provided not only the mouse line itself, but also detailed, objective data on the impact of the specific gene deletion on the mouse's phenotype.
This resource gives researchers unprecedented access to two private collections of knockout mice, providing valuable models for the study of human disease and laying the groundwork for the KOMP.
NIH is now pleased to announce that Lexicon will make over 2500 knockout mouse strains available (and the list will be updated on a regular basis as new knockouts strains are added) for purchase by NIH funded investigators under the same terms as the contract NIH used to acquire knockout mice by using NIH grant money.
Under these terms, an NIH investigator acquiring a Lexicon knockout mouse using his or her grant funds is expected to place the mouse lines in a NIH-supported mouse repository. Universities, medical schools and research laboratories will have access to mice and germplasm all over the world. Lexicon will send heterozygous mice and materials to the investigator. The investigator and institution will be responsible for coordinating with a NIH supported repository to ensure that banks of cryopreserved embryos, sperm and embryonic stem cells are archived using state-of-the-art procedures. Mice and cryopreserved germplasm will be available from the central repository for a nominal fee to cover the costs of quality control, archiving, shipping and restocking the archive. Investigators acquiring mice are also responsible for ensuring that phenotypic data received from Lexicon is deposited in the Mouse Genome Informatics database or another publicly accessible database. All information provided by Lexicon for each mutant mouse will be made available to researchers worldwide without restriction.
