If you deal with government officials long enough, you come to recognize certain truisms.
They don't like controversy. They don't particularly want you to second-guess them. And they sometimes act as if the public records they create belong to them, not the taxpayers who finance their work.
A situation that began in 2010 and has unfolded in the Poudre School District over the last few years is all that and worse. Frankly, I've never seen anything like it.
Ephraim and Donna Starr are active — and, I would say, assertive — parents who have pushed hard to make sure their autistic child gets the right services from the district.
To parents of special-needs children, it will come as no surprise that such action is sometimes necessary. And surely those school district officials who work in special education understand how important it is to parents to make sure their children have appropriate instruction.
Yet, certain Poudre district officials treated the Starrs with disdain, even ordering the destruction of e-mails in anticipation of a potential public records request from the parents.
A school employee who obeyed orders to destroy electronic copies of e-mails yet saved printouts of them says she was fired for her actions.
A court later found the content of some of the e-mails in the case to be "unprofessional and perhaps unethical," and the district apparently agrees.
Poudre schools "states in the strongest terms possible that the conduct was unacceptable, inappropriate and inconsistent with the district's policies, practices and values."
A judge found in 2011 that the records destruction did not violate Colorado open records laws since the destruction directive took place prior to the formal records request.
Yet, the judge ordered the district to pay more than $122,000 in attorneys' fees to the family. Steven D. Zansberg, a First Amendment lawyer who represented the Starrs in the case, said his clients got that award because the judge found they were the prevailing applicant and the district had improperly withheld records.
That might seem like it would be the end of conflict between the Starrs and the district, but it was not.
The school district took the family to administrative court over their refusal to consent to all two dozen assessment tests school officials initially asked to perform on their child, Isaac, who is now 9 years old.
The family eventually agreed to most, with six in dispute, said Ephraim Starr, Isaac's father. The Starrs wanted more information, including who would perform the evaluations and what they would entail.
The school district issued a written statement saying the proceedings involving the family were in "no way" connected to the open records litigation.
By Friday afternoon, the Starrs and the district had come to a mutually acceptable resolution of disputed issues, Ephraim Starr said.
He and his wife are hopeful it might be the start of a better relationship with the district.
That would be a good thing given how rocky it has been thus far.
The public records saga started three years ago, as the Starrs prepared to move from California to Larimer County. They contacted the Poudre district in order to get an Individualized Education Program in place before Isaac was to start school in Colorado.
Almost immediately, Ephraim Starr said, he became uneasy about the vague responses he was getting that he said were mostly "platitudes."
They would later find out that during that timeframe, district employees were exchanging e-mails about the family that were flippant, disrespectful and unprofessional, as a judge would characterize them.
District officials called the Starrs "crazy people," according to court records. They exchanged comments such as, "strap on your waders," and, "This is going to be so much fun!!"
Before the Starrs enrolled their child, Integrated Services Director Sarah Belleau sent an e-mail telling another employee to ask all involved staff to "delete AND destroy any email or paper records related to this family." Then, empty the trash. "The reason is to protect against an open records request."
That is an astonishing statement from a public employee.
Zansberg said he was shocked by what he read. He calls it the "smoking gun" e-mail.
"I've never seen a document like that before or since," said Zansberg, who has represented The Denver Post on First Amendment issues.
Belleau later testified that she wanted to eliminate "duplicate copies of information" since they might cause confusion, according to a judge's ruling. And she wanted to ensure confidential California records were destroyed in the event the child did not enroll in the district. A judge found Belleau's testimony "not credible" and said her primary intent was to prevent the family from getting the material.
Zansberg said the document would not have surfaced if it weren't for the actions of Gloria Hohrein, integrated services coordinator for the district.
Hohrein made hard copies of e-mails she was told to delete. Later, those hard copies were produced and the "smoking gun" surfaced.
She told 7News she was later fired because even though she saved hard copies of the e-mails and never withheld anything from the district, she had taken the extra step of consulting the IT department to make sure she was permanently deleting the e-mails.
The Starrs felt they had to file a lawsuit to obtain information about how the district was handling their son's education.
The material they got was eye-opening. As it turns out, there were many e-mails that talked about deleting e-mails and emptying electronic trash bins.
The district ended up spending tens of thousands of dollars to hire a Texas firm to retrieve deleted records, an action the court found to constitute a reasonable search.
Reasonable, yes. But was this all really necessary? The relationship between schools and parents should be cooperative, not one that involves mass deletion of records and conflict.
The Poudre situation should be an object lesson in how not to get along.

Hulu Video Streaming Service to Go Premium? Hulu Officials Consider Premium Prices for Hulu.com Video Streaming Services
Or should I better say, was the place to go to watch them. It looks like
Hulu officials are considering premium pricing for its popular video
streaming service, a move that has been rumored for quite a while now.
In December alone Hulu reached an unprecedented 1 billion video shows
streamed, for free, in the USA. That s an impressive number and it s
only logical for Hulu execs to start considering introducing some kind
of payment method for accessing all those videos available on Hulu.
Hulu has been growing steadily over the last two years, from 240 million
shows in December 2008 to over 1 billion in December 2009. That number
will only go up should the service remain free of charge. Once Hulu
starts asking people for money for its TV show streaming service it will
lose some of its growing popularity but its �regular � customers won t
Hulu s success has also been proven by the growing number of convent
partners and advertising sponsors. The company has 220 content partners
so far and more than 400 sponsors. Hulu CEO, Jason Kilar, won t say if
Hulu is profitable but one could only imagine that the service must
bring in some serious cash considering its current traffic. But premium
prices will definitely increase Hulu s income.
Although it might be an unpopular move at first, the introduction of
premium prices might be beneficial for customers too. Hulu s upcoming
prices are expected to be more than decent and they have to be ready to
compete against other streaming services such as Netflix for example.
Two pricing tiers are expected, $4.99 for an ad-free Hulu version and
$14.99 for complete access to complete seasons of your favorite shows.
Currently Hulu offers four episodes of specific TV shows for free so a
premium plan will get you an even better deal. These Hulu plans are not
yet official and we have no idea for now if and when the company will
move to premium prices.
What about you? Do you Hulu? Would you pay for it?

Why did you choose a career in copywriting and how did you get into it?
I've always had a love of words and have always found a way to earn a living from it, first as a reporter for my local newspaper and later as a journalist for national newspapers and magazines. I like to think it was the perfect practice for being a good copywriter.
After writing websites, blogs and various other bits and pieces for friends of friends, and getting great results, I realised I couldn't think of a more perfect job for me than as a freelance copywriter.
I slowly built my own website and got a few small clients. Then, almost the same second as I got my first big commission, I quit my day job in PR to write full-time – and I haven't looked back.
What work are you most proud of?
I've worked on some really cool projects for a few big clients like Virgin, which is definitely something I'm proud of – but I also feel proud of the work I do for SMEs as it often really helps transform their business. For instance, I recently wrote a newsletter for a small dog toy business and as a direct result, they sold an extra £5,000 of product in just a week. It was a really big deal for them and I felt proud of such a good result.
What piece of copy do you really wish you'd written?
The journalist in me can't resist a brilliant headline. It's a famous and old example, but you can't help but admire the genius of the Sun's headline: 'SUPER CALEY GO BALLISTIC, CELTIC ARE ATROCIOUS', which followed Inverness Caledonian Thistle's 3-1 victory over Celtic in 2000. I wouldn't have minded having my byline under that.
What do you do if you hit a bit of writer's block?
Luckily this doesn't happen very often but if I am struggling with something then a cup of tea in the garden, or talking it over with my husband (who is also a writer), usually does the trick. One of the (many) joys of working from home is being able to step away from the keyboard when you need to, and to come back later when the right approach is clear in your mind.
What are your favourite and least favourite writing-related tasks?
To be honest, I tend to just say no to writing jobs that I know I'm going to dread. What's the point in working for yourself if you spend your day writing things you don't enjoy and aren't proud of?
I'm lucky that I have a steady flow of work – including blogs, website copy, sales letters, newsletters and articles – that I always get a buzz from writing.
Any copywriting pet hates?
I hate waffly, wordy, jargon-filled copy that clients (and some copywriters) often think sounds impressive, but is actually totally ineffective because nobody understands what it means. Or if they do understand it, it took them five read-throughs to get there.
What's the best piece of career advice you've been given?
When I was learning to write news copy after starting out as a reporter, an editor advised me to 'just tell it like you'd tell your mum'. It's always stuck with me and that kind of approach – to write in an easy-to-understand, concise, friendly way – is still at the back of my mind, even now.
What advice would you give to people starting out on a copywriting career?
Write to be effective, not impressive. Don't mess up on grammar. Don't get comfortable. Don't undercharge. Put that exclamation mark away. Get a cat. Get another cat. Drink lots of tea. Proof read. Proof read again.

Event: Pizza Talk: "Burning Rings of Fire: Prehispanic Maya Lime Production and Environmental Resource Management"
Event Details
Speaker: Dr. Kenneth Seligson, Lecturer, Department of Anthropology, USC
Burnt lime was one of the most significant materials in the daily lives of the Prehispanic Maya, and yet archaeologists have uncovered relatively little evidence of production methods or locales prior to the Spanish Conquest. This talk presents the investigation of a series of pit-kilns in and around the Prehispanic site of Kiuic in the Puuc Region of the northern Maya Lowlands and highlights the multiple lines of evidence that identify these structures as lime production features. This sub-regional pit-kiln technology has implications for understanding resource management practices and the socio-economic organization of a significant Prehispanic Maya industry.

This technical T-shirt from Lesswet.com mixes synthetic and natural fabrics in a bid to produce a great combination of breathability, comfort and fast drying. And it comes pretty close to succeeding, with only an odd cut dashing its chances.
The relatively low merino content – 22 percent, compared to 78 percent polyester – means it doesn't have the same warm, soft feeling of base layers made entirely from the wool. But it certainly feels nicer next to the skin than many synthetic tops, and doesn't smell quite as bad after use.
The shape is akin to a polo shirt, only without the floppy collar. A quarter-length zip adds versatility and cooling options. The look is stealthy, with the only branding a small reflective 'water droplet' logo on the front hem. It's also available in white and red.
So far, so good – but there's no escaping the fact that the sizing is a bit odd. The medium size was a fraction narrow on the shoulders but otherwise a good fit on the torso. The stumbling block was the length.
When wearing Lycra cycling shorts, the hem of the shirt ended below the crotch – even on testers well over 6ft. When we compared it to one of our BikeRadarcycling jerseys, it was a whopping 12cm (4.7in) longer.
If you have an unusually long torso, this could be ideal. If not, it looks odd over Lycra, and while it goes okay with mountain bike baggies, there's a high risk of snagging it on your saddle – not something you want when negotiating technical terrain. Definitely one to try before you buy.

It is better that 10 guilty men go free than one innocent suffer.
This is basically Blackstone's formulation of what should be the priorities of a system of criminal law like ours. One of the worst things that our society ever does is lock up an innocent person.
And it happens a lot. This article concludes that the wrongful conviction rate is something between 3 and 5 percent. Even at the low end, that is a disturbing number, especially given the staggering total number of convictions that flow from the American courts every day.
It seems that the powers that be, especially in places like Virginia, seem to prefer the inverse of Blackstone's formulation. Attributed to more authoritarian individuals from history, the inverse would see 10 innocents suffer so that one guilty person may be punished.
Which may be exactly what happened in the Bennett Barbour case. A few days ago the RTD reported that a convicted rapist has been charged for the crimes for which Mr. Barbour spent 30-plus years in prison. I have no idea whether the charged individual is guilty of this crime, and I of course will presume his innocence. However, for argument's sake, I will give the Commonwealth the undeserved benefit of the doubt and count him as the one guilty person in the formulation. Assuming he is guilty and the Commonwealth does not bungle the case, one guilty person will eventually be punished for the terrible crimes of which Barbour was convicted.
In the meantime, unfortunately, it is impossible to know how many people have suffered on account of this injustice. One we can tally for sure is Mr. Barbour. Prison sucks, and I can't fathom, much less expound upon, his physical and emotional suffering over the last 34 years.
Next, in addition to the wrongfully convicted man himself, we can surely count anyone who ever cared for Mr. Barbour as having suffered in this case. Family and friends watched as their loved one was hauled away for a crime he did not commit and stood powerless as he rotted away in a prison cell.
And while that certainly would get us over the 10-innocent-person mark, there are also the victims who may have suffered at the hands of whoever did commit this crime. That person has been walking free for 34 years. We can't know for sure if the guilty party has committed crimes in the interim, but the possibility is another frightening aspect of our system of overzealous prosecution and shoddy police work.
Prosecutors and police and those who blindly support their efforts all claim to care about victims. Most of them probably really do. The problem is that they ignore how many extra victims might be created as they ravenously pursue every possible prosecution regardless of the circumstances and the likelihood of guilt or innocence, and in spite of prosecutors' mythical ethical duty to see that justice is done.

He granted an interview to reporters on Wednesday which was published in Punch today where he talked about his career and his relationship with Genevieve. And guys, please stop all this 'it's just a publicity stunt' It wasn't. They didn't just date, they were madly in love. Read the interview below.
Singer, Dapo Oyebanji, aka D'banj, finally opened up on his love life in a rare meeting with journalists in Lagos on Wednesday.
The self-styled Kokomaster was clearly in his elements as he talked at length, amid occasional bouts of laughter, about his career and other issues that were important to him. One of the subjects was about his rumoured relationship with Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji.
Judging by the manner in which the actress' name kept popping off his lips, it was obvious that D'banj had a very soft spot for her.
Aware that the grapevine had bristled with the rumour that he was romantically involved with Genevieve, ever since she appeared in the 2010 video of his hit song, 'Fall in Love', the singer said the actress had played a role in his success.
"Apart from the fact that she is my friend, she has been a part of my success. There is no way you are going to tell my story that Genevieve's name will not come up because she featured in my biggest song of all time, Fall in Love. So if E True Story comes to Nigeria to interview me, she will definitely be called upon to tell my story," he said.
As if to confirm that there was more to his relationship with the actress than he had always admitted, D'banj added,
"I would love to have Genevieve as my wife. We never can tell what God plans for us in the future. I have studied her and I realised that anyone that has her as his woman has found himself a treasure. Just like the Bible says, any man who finds a wife, finds a good thing."
On remaining relevant, he said:
"So much has happened in the last 18 months and I am very thankful to God. By the Grace of God, I have remained relevant for nearly a decade in the music industry and I have released hit songs every year. Also, I am glad that I have been chosen to headline the Hennessy Artistry this year. This is one brand that understands the importance of aligning with the entertainment industry.
"My career is barely 10 years old. But with the success I have achieved so far, it feels like three decades already. Within my first 10 years as a musician, I have recorded the biggest song and shot the most viewed music video of all time, 'Oliver Twist'. I must say I am humbled and getting ready to take over," he said.
Without mincing words, D'banj noted that the history of his career and the resulting accomplishments will be incomplete without mentioning his humble beginning with the defunct Mo'Hits Records. The mere mention of his erstwhile colleagues, including Don Jazzy, seemed to awaken nostalgic feelings in him.
"If I say I don't miss Don Jazzy, I am lying. I have spent the better part of my career with him. I was married to him in a way (laughs). So I miss everything about Mo'Hits: the family, the movement, and the vibe of being in the studio with him. I miss the jokes and the arguments, but I have since keyed into the notion that nothing can stop a moving train.
"Nevertheless we can always do music together. The track, 'Top of the World' was produced by a Grammy Award Winner. The songs 'Finally' and 'Don't Tell Me Nonsense' was produced by my producer while 'Oliver Twist' was produced by Don Jazzy. So, why won't I have him on my 10 years anniversary album?
"I have never said I am a musician; I am an entertainer. Some people say I can pick up a microphone and become a comedian. Therefore nobody should come and ask if I want to go into acting because they should know I am already an actor. It depends on when the right script and concept lands in my hands.
Dont forget to check more at Kokoloaded"For now, I am concerned about achieving new things and breaking new grounds. By the time I enter Hollywood, I believe that I'll become as successful as I have been as a singer. The movie titled 'I am Banga Lee', starring Genevieve, to be released in 2014, won't be a bad idea," He said.

The downside of conference travel happens when you turn to the desk and realize that the productivity you tried to have in your hotel room with spotty wireless service and after a 12- or 14-hour day of "conferencing" simply wasn't enough to stay on top of the many tasks. In fact, it feels as if you LOST time (though it was time well used) and have to scramble to meet deadlines and various duties. I face that task after a very rewarding couple of days in the conference world and find there is some frustration to returning to those waiting tasks. I have all of these new ideas---but don't have time to immediately investigate or use them!
There will be time, however, and it will somehow all work out. A faculty member's life is full of this balancing act and so juggling new, exciting ideas with current research, deadlines, class, and meetings should not be a new concept. In light of the fact that this post-conference feeling is comprised of equal parts of exhaustion and exhilaration, I look forward to exploring the new tools and ideas more fully.

Sri Lanka is facing severe flood events during monsoon rainfall in each year all over the country. The rapid development of remote sensing and widely available satellite images can be used effectively to map the flood inundation in past years. This study is focused on the mapping of flood inundation together with flood recurrent based on both optical (MODIS) and microwave (ALOS/PALSAR) satellite images. In the first stage MODIS images with spatial resolution of 500m and temporal interval of eight day was used to map flood recurrent areas for risk assessment using images from 2000 to 2011. In the second state 16 satellite images from ALOS PALSAR images between 2006 and 2011 was analyzed by using pixel threshold value to map the flooded and non-flooded areas. The flood recurrent products from both MODIS and PALSAR images were generated to represent the repetition of flood inundated areas. The analysis of the results indicated that the PALSAR image based flood inundation mapping is much accurate and useful in the context of spatial variability than the temporal variability. The accurate land-cover map is also important to assess the flood damages and evaluate the future development and the cultivation planning. But there is no such an accurate and detailed land-cove map available for Sri Lanka to assess the flood damages. Thus, this study was focused on the preparation of land-cover map with GIS and RS approach. The land-cover classification was carried out by image fusion of optical (LANDSAT) and microwave (ALOS/PALSAR) under High Pass Filtering (HPF) technique. Unsupervised image classification method was used to classify the fused image in to different land-cover classes. Accuracy assessment of land-cover classification was conducted using existing ground truth information and Google Earth with as resulted in the overall accuracy as 71.16% and the Kappa statistics as 62.83%.

This week in our study we will be Beholding God in the Face of Jesus Christ.
Yesterday, I began reading through the Works of John Flavel. This English pastor from the 1600's is one of the best of the Puritan writers and I look forward to carefully reading his works as I am able.
The opening lines of volume one of his works are a perfect introduction to this week's study and really get at the heart of what Behold Your God is all about . . .
"Knowledge is man's excellency above the beasts that perish (Ps. 32:9). The knowledge of Christ is the Christian's excellency above the Heathen (1 Co. 1:23,24). Practical and saving knowledge of Christ is the sincere Christian's excellency above the self-cozening hypocrite (Hb. 6:4,6) but methodical and well-digested knowledge of Christ's excellency is the strong Christian's excellency above the weak (Hb. 5:12-14). A saving, though an immethodical knowledge of Christ, will bring us into heaven (Jn. 17:2) but a regular and methodical, as well as a saving knowledge of him, will bring heaven into us (Col. 2:2,3)."
Do you want to taste heaven today? Behold God in the face of Jesus Christ. Join us this week in the regular and methodical study of God's Word through the Behold Your God Devotional Workbook.

Zechariah 8:23 G-d states this through the prophet: "This is what the LORD Almighty says: "In those days ten men from all languages and nations will take firm hold of one Jew by the hem of his robe and say, 'Let us go with you, because we have heard that God is with you.'"

Yaakov Parisi - Once an Evangelical Christian Pastor, Yaakov will share his intriguing story of how he and his wife explored the roots of their faith in search for the truth, and arrived at the doorstep of Judaism.
I served as a Christian minister in the African American community both in Chicago and Los Angeles for fourteen years. I left that world in 1996 to fulfill my spiritual yearnings and to become a Jew. http://www.ahuvahgray.com/bio.php
My background is that of a religious Christian. While in Hamburg, I was ordained a pastor in the Methodist Church (Aug.,1975). For three & a half years during my doctoral studies, I was employed as a minister of an English speaking Protestant congregation (June,1976 to Dec.,1979). During this time, I met my German wife (Jan.,1978), whose father and... See More grandfather were very pious Lutheran pastors.
Several months after our marriage, my wife and I began to investigate Judaism (Nov. 5, 1978). It took about a year and a half for both of us to reach the conclusion that Torah Judaism fulfilled all the intellectual, academic, spiritual and emotional truths for which we had been searching (Feb.,1980). After withdrawing ourselves from the church and leaving the ministry, both my wife and I began our conversion process which took three & a half years and finally culminated with us traveling to Frankfurt-am-Main and converting to orthodox Judaism (May, 1983).

TBB: The Red Velvet Rose

I am exactly the same. The amount of colouring is just too much for me. But baking with healthy beetroot is another story. This looks very inviting and delicious.
- Unknown on June 15, 2015 at 10:53 AM said...
LOL glad you are not swearing "Looks like bloody rose .. literally….I'm not swearing" :) Sounds lovely the "jam" with the cream cheese frosting… and I like the pink interior it's a surprise when you cut it. ---- Jeniffer
- evil cake lady on June 15, 2015 at 12:28 PM said...
Wow, the cake really would be good for Halloween, LOL! Have you seen Nigel Slater's chocolate-beet cake? You only need 250g beet puree and the cake is really good. Here's a link: Moist chocolate beet cake
- Vicki on June 15, 2015 at 1:24 PM said...
I love how it was a hidden blonde! I actually like the color of your cake with the raspberry puree. Cream cheese frosting is so delicious.
- Kimberlie Robert on June 15, 2015 at 8:22 PM said...
You could make a beet custard with the left over puree and pour it into a tart shell! Top it with a scoop of tarragon flavoured whipped cream. Just saying. Being my first Red Velvet Cake, I liked it, but I have nothing to compare it to. I should take your advice and visit HCB's recipe. I think your cake looks good, even if it looks a little bloody (wink). But see, I know it's raspberry, not blood. You're fun to bake with.
- Milagritos on June 16, 2015 at 10:07 AM said...
You are too hard on yourself! Your cake looks lovely. I haven't tasted mine yet but I'll serve it with plenty of cream and extra raspberry glaze just like you have. It's kinda hard to cook when you don't think the end results are worth it, isn't it? Well, your cake turned out super despite your apprehension!
- Glori Berkel on June 16, 2015 at 10:07 PM said...
Your cake looks wonderful. I used the beet juice too but no trace of color at all. I agree, cream cheese frosting goes with Red Velvet cake.
- Marie on June 16, 2015 at 10:25 PM said...
I really like the looks of your hybrid cake--the raspberry jam makes it look brilliant red on the outside, and the pinkish-blonde looks pretty against the raspberry. And the cream cheese spread as a side sounds perfect. Maybe you're on to something, and the next big trend will be Pink Velvet Cake.

beet soup is really good with sour cream....i love reading your experience like you i don't like the idea of a red cake...

Which MBA Ranking Is Best
If Dawn Iacobbuci were a prospective MBA applicant instead of an accomplished professor, the MBA ranking she would most definitely consult before applying to business schools would be the annual list published by U.S. News & World Report.
Iacobbuci's preference isn't without deep study or consideration. As senior associate dean of Vanderbilt University's Owen School and a marketing professor who has also taught at Kellogg, Wharton and Owen, she has just completed a major study of the reliability and validity of three major rankings: U.S. News, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, and The Financial Times.
The professor, who does not have an MBA degree, looked at every full-time MBA ranking ever published by those three publications: 13 separates lists from BusinessWeek which began ranking schools in 1988 and has published updated rankings every two years; 15 rankings from The Financial Times, which began its list nearly ten years after BusinessWeek, and 27 lists from U.S. News & World Report which started rating MBA programs annually in 1987.
Iacobbuci prefers U.S. News largely because she believes its ranking has shown greater reliability over the years and has greater validity. Her number crunching also found that every rank improvement toward the top on U.S. News yielded an additional $908.03 more on average for the school's graduates in their first post-MBA job, significantly more than BusinessWeek's $605.27 or The Financial Times' $377.58.
"I would look at U.S. News as a result of this research," she concludes, "partly due to objectivity of the measures and components that go into the ranking. They are less easily gamed. The Financial Times is pitched to favor the more international schools, and the BusinessWeek student poll has a good deal of variability to it. You don't want to see schools slipping up and down and all over the place. If there is that much variance, what good can there possibly be to the ranking?"
From an academic viewpoint, variability is bad if you're looking for consistency from one ranking to another, or as this academic puts it, "The simplest expression of reliability is that of consistency." And it's true that wide swings in a school's rank over a short-period of time tend to lack credibility. That's why Poets&Quants routinely points out the biggest changes in every ranking which tend to occur further down each list when the differences in the underlying data are slim at best.
Iacobbuci, however, focuses less on this issue than the variability in the student satisfaction poll used by BusinessWeek. "Comparing across media," she writes, "we see that BusinessWeek varied quite a bit over its first 15 years or so, and it has become stable since approximately 2004. We can laud the U.S. News as yielding the most stable results, year to year, even from its inception.
From an applicant perspective, however, measuring the subjective opinions of the latest graduating class—which is what BusinessWeek tries to do every two years—can yield valuable information about the quality of the full MBA experience. It's not unreasonable to assume, for example, that a school can fall down on critical elements of what makes a top-ranked MBA worthwhile, from the ability of a school to get students the jobs they want to the quality of the teaching in the classroom. Those things tend to be variable–and important to applicants.
For the latest MBA rankings, see PoetsandQuants.com for our composite list:

Will from On Ny Turf, got a ticket at the last critical mass for not being to far over to the right…while stopped at a red light. Check out the full description of what happened.
"Hard to imagine I might ever hear those worlds given some of my views, but that is what NYPD Officer 757 told me as he gave me a ticket friday night while I was waiting at a red light. My penance for riding Critical Mass this month."
Also Chia had this happen to her on Friday morning
Hey, g'morning.
I was riding over the Williamsburg Bridge this morning, as usual. I've noticed, along with everybody else, the recent presence of a lot of cops on the bridge lately. Especially the ones that sit in their 3-wheeler carts right in the middle of the bike path. I will admit that I tend to yell at the ones that block traffic as I go by. I try to let them know that I don't appreciate their presence, and that they're making things more dangerous for everybody. Today was no different.
There was a cop parked on the right (uphill) lane of the Brooklyn side, clogging things up, and I let him know that as I went by. Within 20 seconds, he was behind me, beeping to get past me. I didn't move aside at all, so he had to wait until the downhill side was clear, then he buzzed by me up the bridge. I caught up to him again almost at the top of the bridge, where he had parked again in the right (uphill) lane. I saw him check me out coming up behind him, and so I let him know he was still in the way. On the way down the bridge, I noticed that this guy was now following me down the bridge in his little cart. Close to the bottom of the bridge, he passed me by again on the left, only to stop short and park again on the right (now downhill) side, almost at the very bottom of the Manhattan side. I had to pass this guy again on the left, and as I did I observed him checking me out and talking into his radio. As I got off the bridge and popped onto Delancey, I noticed a police car pull out into traffic right behind me. This guy then proceeded to TAIL me for about four blocks, until I think I ended up losing him in traffic around Chrystie St. Nothing more really happened, and the rest of my commute was relatively smooth.
So that's my story. Nothing too dramatic, unless police harassment counts. It really sucks to say, though, that police intimidation is pretty routine now in this city.
But I figured that I should pass along this story to you, and whomever else you see fit to spread it along to. (Feel free to spread, by the way). Especially with tonight being the Mass – be aware that the cops are already out in force. And it seems like they're itching for a fight.

Animal officers in New Jersey rescued two dogs from a "bubbling, boiling" tar roof last Friday, according to the Associated Humane Societies-Newark.
When officers arrived at the home, they found a pit bull and a Yorkie frantically running about, trying to prevent their feet from burning.
"The Yorkie continuously ran to the edge of the roof to try to find an area that would not burn her further while the pit bull, covered in hot tar, had nearly given up hope," the organization said on its Facebook page.
Animal officers said no one was home. Although there were trays of chicken legs and rice on the roof, the animals didn't have any water, despite the 96-degree heat.
The dogs were removed from the home and taken to an emergency veterinary hospital in Fairfield, New Jersey, Nicki Dawson, the assistant director at the Associated Humane Societies-Newark told ABC News.
"They've been through a lot, but they're doing well," Dawson told ABC. "The team at the hospital has had to completely cut down their fur, soak them with medicated shampoos, give them antibiotics and apply burn medication. It's going to be a bit of a lengthy treatment before they're ready to go, but we have high hopes for them."
The Yorkie was recently released from the hospital and was taken to the Associated Humane Societies-Newark. A veterinary technician who's been working with the pit bull is planning to adopt him after he recovers.
Dawson told ABC officers are still working to determine who owns the two dogs.

Arley 3.0: Sweating With the Not-So-Oldies
I came to physio expecting to work out for 45 minutes to an hour. Ninety minutes later, I was still sweating away on this "step-fit" machine that's like a cross between an elliptical machine, a stationary bike and a stair master...if you can imagine it. I was like one of those show ponies...or a dog in an agility course (well, maybe 'agility' is the wrong word...). I'm swinging my legs in swings! I'm pulling my leg with a lever! I'm squeezing and tightening! I'm lifting and lowering! I'm doing 5 minutes on the step-fit machine! I'm doing some sort of bizarre squatting thing on the balance bars like an arthritic, polio-stricken ballerina! I'm bending over forward on the physio bed waggling my ass in the air while trying to raise my legs in a manner not befitting of a lady!
I, of course, was loving it. I was like some sort of slobbery St. Bernard let loose for a romp in the forest. I was picking up a scent and it smelled like recovery. Despite the fact that it's only been two weeks, it feels like a lifetime since I've flailed away on an elliptical machine with Jesus and Mary Chain cranked up to the point where my ears start to hum. Even five minutes on the "stair fit" felt like the "running up the stairs" scene in Rocky. (To be fair, "Eye of the Tiger" does loop almost constantly in my head, so even brushing my teeth feels like the "running up the stairs" scene in Rocky).
You might be saying to yourself, "But Arley. Aren't you pacing yourself against people who remember the Hoover Administration?" No. Incorrect. Last year, I went to physio at 8:30 a.m. and the clinic was packed full of the "6 a.m. breakfast at the Jiffy Wiffy Waffle House" set. You know, the type of elderly person for whom restaurants keep liver and onions on the menu from between 4 pm and 5:30. For whatever reason, old people like mornings, and old people who need a hip or knee replacement like morning physio appointments.
My new time is in the afternoon and the crowd is a lot younger. I mean, not "going to a Justin Bieber concert" young....or even "going to a Michael Buble concert" young...or, come to think of it, not even a "going to a Paul Anka concert and then gushing about how no one makes real music these days" young. But they're definitely younger and more spry. There were even a few people that seemed to be roughly my age. I have a lot of competition in the optimization department.
And to those of you who are pointing out that physio is actually not a competition and that there is no prize for the fastest recovery....also incorrect. If I've learned one thing from years of wheelchair basketball, it's that literally anything can be made into a competition. So the next time you're in the grocery store and you feel as if someone is staring you down, radiating the intense focus of a champion....that's me. And I will get the freshest watermelon.

The 'Travesia Sagrada Maya' translates into English as Sacred Mayan Journey and it is an INCREDIBLE event that takes place every year here in the Riviera Maya.
The Sacred Mayan Journey is a ritual in which the Maya braved the ocean on their canoes and crossed to Cozumel to worship the goddess Ixchel.
This year marks the 7th annual event and will involve over 300 oarsmen in 30 canoes making their way from Xel Ha Park over to Cozumel and back again, ending their journey with a festival celebrating their arrival in Xcaret park. This event raises awareness of the Mayan culture as the original culture in this area, a fact that is disappearing over time.
Every aspect of the event, from the people taking part to the oars, from the body paint to the food offered at the festival it all has a significance within the Mayan world and each belief is brought to life in present day thanks to the participation of so many local members of the community within this event. Not all participants are local, thanks to the ever growing popularity of the event there are people that travel from other states and ever other countries to take part in this wonderful experience.
If you ever have the chance to be in the Riviera Maya at the end of May, this is one experience that you cannot miss. It is truly incredible and has the power to take your breath away with the sheer dedication of the members and the symbolism portrayed.

New Release: His Little Lanie
Who is ready for a book that will sweep you away from the day?
Available From: Amazon | B&N | iBookstore | GooglePlay | Kobo | Scribd | Inktera
Just a girl in love with a guy who doesn't know she exists. The story of Lanie Lange's life. She rescued Eriksen from drowning when they were teenagers, but she wasn't supposed to be there. He suffered a head injury in the accident, and he doesn't remember her involvement. Another woman took credit for her rescue. Eriksen's back in town now, and Lanie is dying to tell him the truth about that night. There's just one problem. She has no proof.
Eriksen Sanders got caught up in the moment and found himself married to the wrong person. Divorced and moved home, he's aiming to get focused and help bring about the new vibe to Happily. Only there's something about Lanie he can't figure out. An unexplainable pull and gut feeling that he's met the woman before. Determined to find out, he does his best to corner her for the truth, but she constantly slips through his fingers.
In the waters of Maiden Lake, they find common ground. There the secrets about more than either of them expect begin to unravel.
His Little Lanie is a small town contemporary romance retelling of the classic fairy tale, The Little Mermaid.
Chapter One
Lanie Lange pushed through the back entrance and winced at the loud scraping of the metal door against the frame. She had to make time to fix that thing. It was an instant headache for it to squawk first off every morning. Maybe next week she'd squeeze it in. Or today. She could finish it today, but ever since their business had relocated to this building, she found herself welding constantly now that she had space to create bigger items. By the end of the day, working on a door that was functional was the farthest thing from her mind.
Not to mention summer was around the corner. Lanie's workspace area was a large garage bay that was formerly the home of a loading and unloading section of a department store. No air conditioning. Heavy long sleeves and jeans to protect her skin from flying pieces of hot metal in the middle of ninety-plus temperature meant Lanie would get ahead on work and deal with the door later.
She twisted her hair to a low bun and tugged her welding cap down. Today she would complete their latest item to grace their Happily On Your Shelf store. A combination hat and umbrella stand that was all twisty turns and elegant arms formed from a pile of crap Lanie had discovered in her family's junkyard.
All the main pieces had been cut and bent yesterday. After she poured over measurements and double-checked fittings, she'd have it built by the end of the day. She flipped through her notes on the project when the door leading to the storefront swished open.
Violet, one of the three Happily On Your Shelf owners, walked in with a pep in her step and all the glowing warmth of a newlywed. "Good morning."
Lanie sucked in another mouthful of coffee to face her friend's sing-song voice. "Morning."
"I have some new ideas." Violet pulled some sheets from the crook of her elbow and held them out. Violet designed. Lanie built. Cindy, the third partner to their endeavor, polished and finalized.
When Violet married over winter, Lanie half expected the designs to slow. If anything, Violet's happy nuptials had filled her creative well. On the upside, Violet's imagination pushed Lanie's boundaries of what she could bring to life. It wasn't always easy to take a sketch and create a 3D piece of art out of it. Poor Cindy though was left to figure out the rest. Be it working through details to wire a clock, add lighting, or just paint, Cindy managed to complete each idea Violet dreamed up.
Sure, it was challenging at times, but Lanie enjoyed the work. Not just because she got to be in business with her friends. Or that they were succeeding. Or that the work was fun. Okay, it was all those things. Life turned up sweet on occasion. She looked at the papers Violet brought and eyed the detailed sketch of a coffee table. Lanie turned to another sheet and found an end table. Violet had created a few pieces of furniture over the years, but before Lanie could officially begin them, Violet ran through and snatched the drawings back to make changes. They had plans to eventually branch into more prominent pieces of home décor instead of just knickknacks and souvenirs. It was all part of the long-term rollout of their business.
Looked like Violet stripped some of the ornate design off a previous version and went back to rustic with notations to use polished copper with dark-stained wood. As with every piece Violet drew, this one was just as beautiful as the last. "Are you going to let me build any of this before you take them away again?"
"Probably not."
Lanie held the papers up. "You know, these would look good in my cabin with the patio doors and kitchen counters we already did."
Violet beamed. "I know. That's what I was thinking of last night and had this idea. I thought, why not use copper for a top instead of glass sunken in? I went back and forth on how much design. At one point I had wrapped the legs with a sort of vine-like element to echo the glass doors we hung there, but it looked busy. And you have that nice thick mantel there that I thought the bareness of these legs stained dark to match would complement well."
"So maybe let me build these and we actually complete this project to see how it goes?"
"That's the idea." Violet sighed and crossed her arms under her chest. "But I don't know if you can talk Cindy into polishing the copper."
True point. They had crafted beautiful countertops in the kitchen at the cabin as a test run. They were completely stunning and a bit of a pain to bring out the pattern. Lanie tapped the pages against her palm. "I could swap the copper out for a similar coloring plate to the wrought iron around the glass doors. The deep flat black against the dark wood would be pretty."
Violet winced. "I thought about that too, but with the thick legs of the wood to match the mantel and a black top, I got a mental image of a railroad theme and couldn't get the look out of my head."
And now that Violet put it there, Lanie was stuck with it too. "Maybe oil-rubbed bronze? That would be close to the copper. Close enough anyway, since the kitchen is around the corner and they won't be put side by side. I'll have to let Cindy have a look and get her opinion."
Lanie held the sheets away. "But once Cindy puts her two cents in and we make a decision about a final look, you don't get to swipe these back. Just make new ones. Or tweak off one of the other hundreds of furniture ideas you've given."
"It hasn't been hundreds."
Lanie stared her down until Violet caved.
Her friend sighed. "Maybe if you count the ideas I had since the very beginning, before we ever got moved into the new building."
"I am."
"You know," Violet moved to the work table and shifted through the other project ideas that had been piled up and she came out with the daisy sketchy. "You could do another of these."
Not on her life. Lanie plucked the sheet out and buried it back to the bottom. "No way. Get out, you. I have work to do."
Violet left with a chuckle. "Have fun. I'm getting the front opened."
"I'll have your hat stand finished today if you want to give Cindy the heads-up for this afternoon."
Violet gave a nod and a wave and disappeared back to where Lanie would just about rather die than be: the storefront. No. Definitely not. All the people, their questions. The smiling in the face of their slow browsing. No way. Lanie settled her welding hood on, knocked it down, and it sealed her into quiet darkness where it was just her and her thoughts.
Under the hood she found the peaceful solace that was only outdone by her quiet swims at Maiden Lake. In the waters she cut through the lake with a constant stream of thoughts and ideas. Here Lanie crouched, twisted, ducked, and brought art to life with each spark and hot run of her tools. The wire gun lit on the metal and caught. Heat swarmed across the front of her as she melted metal together. First tacks and adjustments to get the angles correct. Then she laid down a long ripple of welds. The rhythmic pattern slipped out like a row of overlapping nickels that could compete with a mechanical arm. Moving constantly and working through lunch, she attached the final arm of their decorative umbrella-combo-hat stand and stood back for a look.
Lanie couldn't wait to see what Cindy would do for this. Cindy usually arrived about now to look at what needed her attention. Lanie knocked the crusted flakes off a weld and stretched. A string of pops zipped up her spine, and a long moan slid out. One more project down meant time to start another.
She could take a break and go for a walk, but that was too risky for running into people. Anyone, really, and all their talking and questions. The chitchat was just exhausting. The weather was fine. Or it was raining. Who cared? Yes, work was great or hard or whatever. Same for everyone. While she could suffer through a long, useless chat, mostly skipping that break and walk meant less opportunity to run into their business neighbors. Or at least one of them specifically.
Not that he knew she really existed. Well, he knew she was alive and all, but that wasn't the same thing. To save herself from spilling the truth about his past that would paint her a crazy person, she pushed her oxygen tank hoses to the side, hung up her hood, and consulted Violet's drawings to figure out what to work on next. At some point Violet must have come through the warehouse, because that damn daisy sculpture was back on top. Never. That thing required tacking together about seventy-five nails to create the bloom. Lanie had built exactly one of those and had no plans to repeat the meticulous process again. She returned the design to its rightful place at the bottom of the stack.
The side door by the garage bay opened with a booming scrape against the frame, instantly dragging up guilt for not fixing it yet. She brushed the worries aside like always. The door creaked and grunted as it closed. Before Cindy could say anything, Lanie waved without looking up. "I know, I know. It needs to be fixed."
"Probably nothing a little W-D can't take care of." A male voice echoed in the room.
She stilled as the rumbling baritone sounds rolled over her, and she slowly turned to see it wasn't Cindy. It was the one man who didn't know she existed in the way she knew he existed.

So many of the things that we work on are shaped by the light that graces it. The relationship between light, medium, and artist is important—it affects the way we feel about the artifacts we handle. Shift is an exploration of light and color in space. Simply move the track-pad to change hue, saturation, or push down on the track-pad to take in ambient light.

Shift is a lamp made intelligent for designers, crafts-people, and artists. It is an exercise in order and sequence; a quiet choreography of electronic decisions made to turn on with movement, to dim at dusk, and to adapt to a user's preferences. It is designed to both receive input manually and sense the surrounding environment to change the ways we experience color, light, and space.
Interaction with the large track-pad is a way for users to dictate which hues should be displayed—brightness and color controlled by automated reading of the surrounding environment, through an array of embedded sensors. Shift up to increase saturation, left and right to cycle through various hues. The top of the lamp features a color sensor that can replicate and project any color of an object held against it—perfect for fabric swatches or grabbing inspiration from the world around you.
The lamp is designed to be sleek in form, with elongated armatures and a geometric head; rounded motifs drawing parallels with the design of a magnifying glass. All hinged joints are held in a tension grip, in an effort to minimize visual clutter and promote easy interaction.

by: Merlito Castor Catolico, Real Estate Consultant (PRC Lic. No. 062)
A food for thought for former friends and acquaintances (who are now foreign nationals) who are planning to buy a property in the Philippines:
1. The Listing Broker is not your "friend" – His loyalty is with the owner of the house he is selling and not to you!
In fact, he has a contract with the owner to sell the property (called a listing agreement signed by both parties) at the highest price possible because often his professional fee is a % of the gross sales, and worst (particularly for unlicensed "brokers" kuno) he might just simply jack up the prices – and in some hilarious situation ends up getting a higher amount than the owner himself!
2. If you spend millions of pesos to buy a property – common sense tells you to have it properly appraised by a professional real estate appraiser to estimate its market value.
Do not rely on the broker himself (see No. 1 above), the neighborhood gossip, a relative with no real estate experience regardless of how good and pure his intention is, a former office mate you have not seen in the last decade.
Spending say P 20,000 for an appraisal of a P 5,000,000 3 bedroom residential property means investing 0.4% for your peace of mind! Its hard to lie down in your new bedroom looking at the ceiling for the next 10 years knowing that at your age – you were still duped by a glib talker!
3. Common sense will also tell you to have the property be thoroughly "property inspected" for termites, obsolete designs, external obsolescence (present and future – a garbage dump maybe proposed near your backyard by the city hall, or somebody died of a horribly infectious decease in the masters bedroom, God forbid!).
Hire somebody to climb the attic, ceiling, and crawl underneath, and look under the kitchen sink – and not just to leisurely take a walk around the property!
4. A background investigation title or ownership due diligence is also necessary. The property might be in the middle of nasty property dispute – and the back page is littered with a lot of lis pendens, mortgages, etc. The seller might not be the true owner, or his title might be spurious, a duplication, a fake, with a cloud, etc.
The house might be inadvertently standing on another's property! Have it also surveyed by a Geodetic Engineer to be sure – especially for rural areas whose physical boundaries might be just some rock or trees planted by an ancestor long ago!
5. If you are a former Filipino citizen who is already a citizen of another country, then you have lost the rights of a Filipino citizen, and you are barred from owning real estate in the Philippines, except under certain circumstances like inheritance, previously owned properties, and under the special conditions of BP 185 (Residential up to 1000 Sq. M. Urban, and up to 1 hectare Rural), and RA 8179 ( up to 5000 rural, and up to 3 hac Rural – for business) – just go to the internet an Google it up!
By the way, a foreigner can also buy condos provided the ownership of foreign nationals in the condo corporation does not exceed 40%.
There are a lot of things to consider when buying properties in the Philippines like the taxes to be paid, and the deadline for payment of those taxes (for Capital Gains tax, 60 days from notarization, for Documentary Stamps, the 5th day of the next month).
Also don't forget to arrange who will process the registration of your new property – there are brokerage firms who does this for a fee.
But never deal with an unlicensed or colorum broker or agent. It is a violation of RA 9646 or the RESA law, and punishable with a fine of P 100,000 or 2 years imprisonment, or both; or even double that for illegal practitioners.
If as a buyer, and your dollar is so burning a hole in your pocket such that you are super anxious to spend it now regardless of the RESA law – just remember that knowing that your broker or agent is an illegal colorum yet you deal with him with this foreknowledge, makes you a complicit to the crime itself – and may bar you from complaining to the authorities in the future if the deal turns south!
What a bad idea to start your new life in the Philippines by violating a law!
if you don't know this – then you do now. We are now in the information age and its very easy to unmask a fake or illegal broker or sales agent.
Just visit the PRC website to check and unmask the true identity of your broker or sales agent. Just google this and fill in the name of your broker: http://www.prc.gov.ph/services/?id=16
That's the way it is!

Through most of the Middle Ages, bread in France was simply "bread". There was no need to refer to various shapes of loaves because, for oven-baked bread, there was mainly one: round (bread baked on the hearth, which would have been flat, was rarely referred to in records). The main distinction between breads was in the grains used to make them: wheat, rye, mixed wheat and rye (maslin), spelt, barley, etc.
Around the twelfth century many more types of bread began to be mentioned in records: morning bread, varlet's bread, canon's bread, peer's bread, Knight's bread, Squire's bread, Christmas bread, etc. It is possible that at least some of these took different shapes, though many may only have been finer versions of the same round loaf seen in multiple medieval images. As a practical matter, however, that spherical or (for larger breads) hemispherical shape remained the norm for centuries.
By the seventeenth century, French bread already existed in a number of forms and these became almost uncountable in the eighteenth century. This has remained the case ever since and even ten years ago the baguette was only one of a series of breads to be found in any Parisian bakery. At the least, others would have included the ficelle, the batard, and the baguette-like pain viennois (not to be confused with its nineteenth century ancestor, which could take many shapes). Crowns, "ears of wheat", polka, split loaves were only some of the other possibilities.
Now however a strange thing has happened: the baguette has seemingly multiplied, appearing in innumerable different varieties - traditional, country, banette, spelt, whole wheat, sesame, poppy, ciabatta - and displaced numerous other varieties in the process. It is not in the least unusual in Paris today to go into a bakery and see nothing but baguettes on one row, albeit baguettes in slightly different forms or made with different grains. Meanwhile, it has become very hard to find ficelles or batards, for instance.
Ironically, this development comes in parallel with a revolt against the baguette led by artisan bakers such as Poilane (whose shop carries none). And if the baguette has one chief rival in this process it is the boule, that is the round, sour-dough leavened country bread which was once only one of many options, but now is sometimes pointed out as the "true" French bread, the root one should return to in fighting what some have called the "baguettocentrisme" of French bread baking. Yet ironically it is the very artisanal spirit that that revolt inspired that has also led to rethinking the once uniform baguette so that it is now itself a rival to the boule which had been the standard-bearer of artisanal bread.
Realistically, it is unlikely that France will ever return to the medieval state of affairs, with one form of bread massively dominant over all others. But it is striking that in 2013 the baguette, in its ever-expanding new incarnations, has already displaced loaves with which it once shared bakers' shelves, creating a tendency towards uniformity that for centuries had become unthinkable in French bread-baking.

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Announces Investigation of ATS Corporation (ATSC)
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities firm headquartered in New York City, is investigating the Board of Directors of ATS Corporation ("ATS" or the "Company") (NYSE AMEX: ATSC) for potential breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with their conduct related to the sale of the Company to Salient Federal Solutions, Inc., in an all-cash deal valued at about $77 million. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, ATS stockholders will receive $3.20 in cash for each share of ATS common stock they own. As recently as February 2, 2012, ATS stock traded at $3.33 per share – higher than the deal price. The proposed transaction is structured as a tender offer and may be effectuated without a shareholder vote.
Whether ATS Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company's stockholders by failing to conduct an adequate and fair sales process prior to agreeing to this proposed transaction, whether the proposed transaction undervalues ATS shares and by how much this proposed transaction undervalues the Company to the detriment of ATS shareholders are the key focus of this investigation.
