VILLARROEL, Julia et al. Occupational exposure risk to body fluids in the Felix Bulnes Hospital during eleven years. Rev. chil. infectol. [online]. 2012, vol.29, n.3, pp.255-262. ISSN 0716-1018. http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0716-10182012000300002.
Accidents with risk of occupational exposure to body fluids constitute more of a third of labor accidents. Objective: To describe the annual incidence of accidents with exposure to body fluids in the Felix Bulnes Hospital from1998 to 2008. Material and Methods: A retrospective analysis of reports from the Infection Control Committee. Results: During 11 years, there were 415 accidents with exposure to body fluids, with the cumulative incidence of 3,4% (range 1.3% to 6%). Sharp instrument accidents accounted for 92,5% of cases. The main health care providers affected were the paramedical technicians and the students. The highest frequency of accidents occurred in the obstetrical operating rooms (20%) and in the central operating rooms (17%). There were no cases of seroconversion and no exposure to HCV or HBV. The estimated costs were USD $35638,6 or USD $271 per 1000 staff per year. Conclusions: The incidence increased during the first years of the study and then remained stable since 2001, despite efforts in training personnel. Many factors contribute to the development of these accidents, such as lack of experience, type of clinical benefit and even daytime working hours.
Palabras clave : Body fluids; occupational exposure; incidence.

Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe is proud of his England career.
By next March, Defoe's international career will stretch back a full decade, during which time he has amassed over 50 caps.
It is a pretty decent return by any standards - but the 30-year-old hitman is keen to add to his tally.
He said: "I came into the game quite early, making my debut at West Ham when I was 17.
"Even at that stage people were talking about me, saying I could go on to be special and score goals for club and country.
"You have to live up to that. You have to work hard. You can't take your foot off the gas at any stage."

The President of tht day, Col. Z. S.
Spauldlug, Acting Minister-Resident, made
the following Introductory remarks:
FeCote Qyvxtryncn Ladies and Cnn:
To the accidental absence of our Minister
Resident, who is unfortunately prevented br
severe Illness from returning to hit post, 1
owe the high honor of being called to pre
side over your rejoicings here to-day.
Upon an occasion like this, when you as
Americans, and friends of America, are
gathered together to commemorate the day
that gave birth to onr nation, and to cele
brate the anniversary of an act by which " life,
liberty, and the pursuit ot happiness" were
guaranteed to untold millions. It is fitting
that he who is charged and empowered by
our Government with the care of her in
tents and the protection of her citiiens npon
these Islands, should congratulate yon upon
the prosperous close of an old, and the aus
picious opening of a new year in the history

with the consciousness that J represent,
however unworthily, the Minister-Resident,
upon whom you are accustomed to look as
the representative of the justice, dignity and
power of our country, and that I but express
his sentiments when I say to you that I feel
"it it good to be here."
This is no unmeaning show. "o Idle or

to a conspiracy existing on Manjrou to cut
off the Morning Star, should she visit it, we
can find no proof that such exists, or that
any natives have been put up to such an idea
by the foreigners trading there. It is one of
those rumors which grow from malicious
ness or a petty hostility .among men thrown
in each other's way down there.
We learn on inquiry from reliable sources,
that the rumors regarding Captain Pease,
who has charge of a trading interest there,
are untrue, and that so far from absenting
himself, he is in China with a venture of
goods, baring chartered the Guam brig Ana
to take bis cargo from Ascension to Shang

der him speak in commendatory terms of his
management of business asd tbe manner of
his intercourse with the natives of those
groups. We believe that the reports of the
cocoanut oil traders about each other must
be accepted with mnch allowance. At the j
nest tne business is a cangeross as well as a
precarious one, carried on as it is, on most of
the islands, with savages, who are under no
law but their own win, and who have little
fear of punishment from national vessels for
outrages committed on cither traders or ves
sels. Necessarily, the men left on the sta
tion are not drawn from the upper-ten cf
society, or governed in their talk or transae
tions by tbe strictest code of honor. There
is no law on those solitary atolls to regulate
competition and compel respect to another's
rights, and hence the law of tbe strongest or
the sharpest, is sometimes put into requisi
tion to obtain control of the trade.
There are several vessels engaged In the
business, which is managed by patting a can
on an Island, with goods, and casks for the

to tice, and finally is called" for by the Tea

The filth public annual examination of this

of visitors from all parts of the Island. The
exercises took place at 10 a. x., nnder a spa

for the occasion. The opening prayer waa

which the pupils were examined In the fol

Following visualization website is quite intriguing, if only because of the compelling story 'behind' the data it shows. in.fondo.al.mar (under the sea) [infondoalmar.info] is an online data visualization project about a series of sinkings in the Mediterranean Sea, involving ships which are suspected of having carried toxic and radioactive waste. The most shocking fact about these sinkings is that the ships would have been sunk deliberately to dispose of tons of toxic, chemical and radioactive waste.
The visualization project aims to support the ongoing investigations about these suspicious incidents by centralizing and spreading all relevant information, so that a better factual understanding can be gained. The information shown was hidden in maritime registers and hard disks, and was scattered in tens of different dossiers. More precisely, in.fondo.al.mar employs data coming from official documents made available by the Lloyds's of London, dossiers on the case by Legambiente and other ecological associations, newspaper clippings and background information gathered from specialist Internet sites.
The visualizations consist of a geographical map of the sinkings, a chronology of the incidents, as well as general statistics and individual records about the incidents and the ships involved.

Dorie Greenspan "Baking: From My Home to Yours"
printable recipe
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups (packed) light brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped into chips, or 1 cup store-bought chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips or Heath Toffee Bits, I used Toffee Bits
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a 9×13-inch baking pan and put it on a baking sheet.
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Beat the butter on medium speed in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Add both sugars and beat for another 3 minutes, or until well incorporated. Add the eggs one by one, beating for 1 minute after each addition, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients, mixing just until they disappear into the batter. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the chips, nuts and coconut. Scrape the batter into the buttered pan .
Bake for about 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center of the Blondie comes out clean. The blondies should pull away from the sides of the pan a little and the top golden brown.

Bonobo Handshake
Bonobos are unique. They're endangered apes from the Democratic Republic of Congo that live in a female dominated society. They use sex as a means of reducing tension within the group and they never kill their own. Vanessa Woods of Duke University studies bonobos and she says there's a lot we could learn from these close relatives.

as well known the Set interface is used when you don't want any duplicates in your collection. to detect equality when using add() the HashSet uses the (overriden) methods hashCode and equals(). the hashCode identify the bucket in the collection and if there are already objects in it the method equals() is used to detect equality on the objects. i would say, what happens behind the scenes with HashSet is clear to me. but with the TreeSet, it seems this class uses only the comparator or comparable to detect equality. Reading the java api 7, I would say yes:
using this classQuote:
Note that the ordering maintained by a set (whether or not an explicit comparator is provided) must be consistent with equals if it is to correctly implement the Set interface. (See Comparable or Comparator for a precise definition of consistent with equals.) This is so because the Set interface is defined in terms of the equals operation, but a TreeSet instance performs all element comparisons using its compareTo (or compare) method, so two elements that are deemed equal by this method are, from the standpoint of the set, equal. The behavior of a set is well-defined even if its ordering is inconsistent with equals; it just fails to obey the general contract of the Set interface.
and this code to add two person objectsCode:
public class Person implements Comparable<Person>{
private String name;
private int age;
public Person(String n, int a) {
this.name = n;
this.age= a;
public String toString() {
return name + "(" + age+ ")";
public String getName() {
return name;
public int getAge() {
return age;
public boolean equals(Object o) {
if (o instanceof Person && this.getName().compareTo(((Person)o).getName()) == 0
&& this.getAge()-((Person)o).getAge()==0) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
public int hashCode() {
int result = 37;
result += result + this.getName().hashCode();
result += result + this.getAge();
return result;
public int compareTo(Person p) {
return this.getName().compareTo(p.getName());
the boolean inside b[1] is false, so p2 was not added. why?Code:
Set<Person> set = new TreeSet<Person>();
boolean[] b = new boolean[2];
Person p1 = new Person("Harry", 48);
Person p2 = new Person("Harry", 17);
b[0] = set.add(p1);
b[1] = set.add(p2);

Officials push emergency alert program with threat of hurricane
Published 11:44 am, Thursday, October 1, 2015
Photo: Tyler Sizemore / Tyler Sizemore
With Hurricane Joaquin working its way toward the East Coast, Redding officials are urging residents to sign up for emergency alerts.
Both the Redding Police Department and First Selectwoman Julia Pemberton took to social media Thursday morning to request people to register their cell phones for the town's emergency alert program. Residents can sign up for the program on the town's homepage, www.townofreddingct.org.
"At this time residents should closely follow weather reports and prepare for the possibility of the storm's arrival in the region over the next five days," Pemberton wrote on the town's Facebook page. "Register your cell phones for emergency notifications. We can't alert you if we can't find you!"

If there is no first row, then this function does nothing. This function is almost identical to ddSetLocalByColumnsFromFirstRow. The only difference is that this function uses the first row given an indexed column and value instead of the very first row of the dynamicdata table. If no indexed row is found then this function does nothing.
The following table lists parameters for the function.
|The name of the dynamicdata table to load.
|The name of an indexed column in the dynamicdata table.
|The value to use to select a row of the original table. This value will be checked in a case-insensitive manner against the indexColumn in each row. If it matches, that row will be used and the rest of the table will be ignored.
If the dynamicdata table is successfully loaded, it returns True.

Cleveland Browns fire coach Rob Chudzinski after just one season
It's fair to assume the Cleveland Browns made up their minds about coach Rob Chudzinksi long before Sunday, it's just that nobody figured that the Browns would give up on him after just one season.
But the rumors about Chudzinski's job security started on Sunday afternoon and the decision was swift: On Sunday night, about five hours after the Browns' loss at Pittsburgh officially ended their season, Chudzinski was fired.
BREAKING: The Browns have relieved Head Coach Rob Chudzinski of his duties, the organization announced Sunday night.
— Cleveland Browns (@Browns) December 30, 2013
The Browns had a disappointing 4-12 season, but one that could have been explained away by numerous quarterback injuries, including a big one to Brian Hoyer after Hoyer helped them to a two-game winning streak early in the season, and trading away starting running back Trent Richardson early in the season without a decent backup plan. But the organization didn't need any more time to realize that Chudzinski wasn't the answer.
It's rare for a NFL coach to get just one year, although Jacksonville did fire Mike Mularkey after last season, his first running the Jaguars. Hue Jackson (Raiders, 2001), Jim Mora (Seahawks, 2009), Cam Cameron (Miami, 2007), Art Shell (Raiders, 2006), Marty Schottenhimer (Redskins, 2001) and Al Groh (Jets, 2000) are the other coaches who were fired after just one season since 2000, according to Pro Football Talk.
Chudzinski joins that group. Although it's hard for the beaten-down Browns franchise to start all over again, it's obvious that they felt they made a mistake hiring Chudzinski and decided to not compound the error by keeping him around a second season.

In the tree component, select the Application Server node.
Click the Logging tab.
On the Logging Settings page, use the following fields to customize logging:
Log File — To specify an alternative name or location for the server log file, type the new path name in the text field. By default, the location is domain-dir/logs/server.log.
Alarms — To route SEVERE and WARNING messages through the JMX framework, select the Enabled checkbox.
Write to System Log — On Solaris and Linux systems only, to send logging output to the syslog facility in addition to the server log, select the Enabled checkbox.
Log Handler — To send logs to a destination other than server.log or syslog, you can plug in a custom log handler. The custom handler must extend the class java.util.logging.Handler (a JSR 047 compliant API). Type the absolute class name of the handler in the Log Handler field. Also put the handler class in the Application Server classpath so that the handler is installed during server startup. The log records from the custom handler will have the format described in Log Records.
Log Filter — To filter log records that are sent to destinations such as server.log, syslog, or a destination specified by a custom log handler, you can plug in a custom log filter. The custom filter must implement the interface java.util.logging.Filter. Type the absolute class name of the filter in the Log Filter field. Also put the filter class in the Application Server classpath so that the filter is installed during server startup.
File Rotation Limit: When the server log reaches the specified size in bytes, create a new, empty file named server.log and rename the old file server.log_date, where date is the date and time when the file was rotated. The default value is 2 megabytes. The minimum value for the limit is 500 kilobytes; if you specify a lower value, the file rotates when it reaches 500 KB. To turn off log file rotation, set the value to 0.
File Rotation Time Limit — Rotate the server log after the specified number of minutes is reached. The default value is zero, which means that the file is rotated when it reaches the size specified in the File Rotation Limit field. If you specify one or more minutes, the time limit takes precedence over the size limit.
Click Save to save changes. Click View Log Files to view the server log.
Stop and restart the Application Server.
In the tree component, select the Application Server node.
Click the Logging tab.
On the Logging Settings page, click the Log Levels tab.
On the Module Log Levels page, choose a new value from the drop-down list opposite the module or modules whose log level is to be changed.
The default level is INFO, meaning that messages at that level or higher (WARNING, SEVERE) appear in the log. Choose any of the following values (listed from highest to lowest):
Use the Additional Properties area to configure log levels for any application loggers.
The property name is the logger namespace, and the value is one of the eight possible levels. For example, the property name could be samples.logging.simple.servlet, and the value could be FINE.
Also use this area to change the log level for a submodule, such as the transport submodule of the CORBA module:
Click Save to save the changes, or click Default to restore the default values.
Calls to System.out.println are logged at the INFO level using the logger name javax.enterprise.system.stream.out. Calls to System.err.println are logged at the WARNING level using the logger name javax.enterprise.system.stream.err. To turn off the logs from these sources, specify the logger name with the value OFF in the Additional Properties area.
Changes to the Log Level settings take effect immediately. They are also saved in the domain.xml file for use when the server restarts.
In the tree component, select the Application Server node.
Click the Logging tab.
On the Logging Settings page, click View Log Files.
Use the Search Criteria area to customize and filter the log viewer. Use the basic fields as follows:
Instance Name — Choose an instance name from the drop-down list to view the log for that server instance. The default is the current server instance.
Log File — Choose a log file name from the drop-down list to view the contents of that log. The default is server.log.
Timestamp — To view the most recent messages, select Most Recent (the default). To view messages only from a certain period of time, select Specific Range and type a date and time value in the From and To fields that appear. For the Time value, the syntax must take the following form (SSS stands for milliseconds):
For example:
If the From value is later than the To value, an error message appears.
Log Level — To filter messages by log level, choose a log level from the drop-down list. By default, the display includes all messages that appear in the server log at the chosen log level and more severe levels. Select the checkbox labeled "Do not include more severe messages" to display messages at only the chosen level.
To ensure that the messages you want to view appear in the server log, first set the appropriate log levels on the Log Levels page. See To configure log levels
If you choose to filter log messages based on log level, only messages matching the specified filter criteria are shown. However, this filtering does not affect which messages are logged to the server log.
The most recent 40 entries in the server log appear, with the settings specified on the Logging Settings and Log Levels pages.
Click the triangle next to the Timestamp header to sort the messages so that the most recent one appears last.
To view a formatted version of any message, click the link marked
A window labeled Log Entry Detail appears, with a formatted version of the message.
At the end of the list of entries, click the buttons to view earlier or later entries in the log file.
Click Advanced Search in the Search Criteria area to make additional refinements to the log viewer. Use the Advanced Options fields as follows:
Logger — To filter by module, choose one or more namespaces from the drop-down list. Use shift-click or control-click to choose multiple namespaces.
Selecting a namespace at a higher level selects all the namespaces below it. For example, selecting javax.enterprise.system also selects the loggers for all the modules under that namespace: javax.enterprise.system.core, javax.enterprise.system.tools.admin, and so on.
Custom Logger — To view messages from loggers specific to a particular application, type the logger names in the text field, one per line. If the application has several modules, you can view any or all of them. For example, suppose the application has loggers with the following names:
com.mycompany.myapp.module1 com.mycompany.myapp.module2 com.mycompany.myapp.module3
To view messages from all modules in the application, type com.mycompany.myapp. To view messages from module2 only, type com.mycompany.myapp.module2.
When you specify one or more custom loggers, messages from Application Server modules appear only if you specify them explicitly in the Logger area.
Name-Value Pairs — To view output from a specific thread, type the key name and value for that thread in the text field. The key name is _ThreadID. For example:
Suppose that com.mycompany.myapp.module2 runs in several threads. To refine the log viewer to show only the output from a single thread, specify that module's logger in the Custom Logger field, and then specify the thread ID in this field.
Display — To view more than 40 messages at a time (the default), choose another of the available values from the drop-down list (100, 250, or 1000).
To view stack traces, deselect the "Limit excessively long messages" checkbox. By default, stack traces do not appear in the viewer; to view them, click the (details) link for a message.

Spurs' Tony Parker Passes Michael Jordan for 8th on All-Time Playoff Assist ListJune 10, 2014
Despite falling to the Miami Heat in Sunday's Game 2 of the NBA Finals, San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker passed Michael Jordan to take sole possession of eighth place on the NBA's all-time playoff assists list, per NBA.com/stats.
Parker piled up seven dimes in the 98-96 loss, bringing his career playoff total to 1,026—four ahead of Jordan's 1,022. The French point guard has an outside chance to pass seventh-place Kobe Bryant (1,040) in Tuesday's Game 3, though he'd need a whopping 14 assists just to pull even with the Black Mamba.
Looking beyond Tuesday, Parker figures to work his way further up the list before the end of the Finals, as a number of players are bunched closely together after the top three. Sixth-place Scottie Pippen had 1,048 assists in the playoffs, while fifth-place Steve Nash is still active with 1,061 and fourth-place Larry Bird had 1,062.
Sitting just 36 assists behind Bird with up to five more games to come in the Finals, Parker has a real chance to climb into fourth place by the end of the series. Third place is out of reach, however, as Jason Kidd retired with 1,263 assists in his playoff career. John Stockton holds the second spot with 1,839, while Magic Johnson is in first with 2,346, despite only playing for 13 seasons.
In addition to his spot in the top-10 of the all-time playoffs assists list, Parker ranks 13th in league history with 3,655 career playoff points, and 27th with 182 steals.
With the Spurs poised to extend their run of success for a few more seasons, Parker will only continue to cement his place in NBA history.

Microphone Not Working on iPhone 6/6 Plus? Here are Solutions to Try
When microphone doesn't work on your iPhone, the primary objective of buying a phone seems to die down. This can irritate you and the one who is talking to you on other end. There can be many obstructions that create such problems.
To solve this single issue, there are several solutions. We have listed below some fixes that may solve the problem. But before you try out any one, please test the microphone on your iPhone. There is a possibility that your microphone is working well but the app you are using can be a culprit. We have received many queries from users, who post issues that they encounter problem only while they are using apps like Google Hangout or Skype. This means that users need to update or fix the issue in those chat apps, hence, it is advisable to test the microphone.
Open Extras on your iPhone and tap on Voice Memos; now speak into microphone and play back your recorded voice. You will be able to gauge the quality of your microphone by listening to your own voice. If you think that microphone is not working on iPhone, follow the simple solutions mentioned below.
Is Your Phone's Case/Cover the problem?
If you are using a branded phone cover, chances are thin that your conversation is hampered by its defective design. Many users fail to notice this minute mistake (or oversight from manufacturers) that cost them high. If your phone's cover hides the microphone, you need to change it immediately.
Keep your Microphone Clean
Prevention is better than cure! A user has to accept that his/her iPhone is exposed to all the dirt of the world, including the hair oil they are using. And this could be one of the reasons why microphone not working on iPhone headphones. This might sound a far-fetched imaginary problem, but it does affect the quality of microphone because delicate devices like your iPhone gather such dirt over a period of time. So, keep your phone clean of dirt & dust regularly with the help of a needle or a toothpick.
Have you Updated the iOS?
Ensure that you are using the latest iOS version on your iPhone. Before you update your iPhone, check whether your phone has got enough space. Now, update your iPhone wirelessly or through iTunes.
If you are using Wi-Fi at home or at office, you can update the latest version of iOS by tapping on Settings → General → Software Update.
You can also update your iPhone to the latest iOS version via iTunes. Connect your iPhone to a computer → Select your iPhone in iTunes → Click on Check for Update button → Click on Download and Update.
When I started using iPhone, I faced this issue of microphone not working on my iPhone 6; whenever I make or receive a call, I was not able to listen to properly. Then I solved the problem by toggling Noise Cancellation ON. Launch Settings → Tap on General → Tap on Accessibility → Toggle Noise Cancellation ON.
Finally, restart your iPhone. Press and hold the sleep/wake button on the right side, a slider will appear on the screen; slide it from left to right. This will shut down your iPhone; now press and hold the same button to start your iPhone again.
Above methods should address the issue of microphone not working on iPhone. If the issue persists, take your iPhone to an authorized Apple centre.

Two years ago the United States Supreme Court decided the landmark case of Citizens United v. FEC. The Court reversed an anomaly in campaign finance law by restoring the First Amendment protection of political speech.
Over the past two years Citizens United's victory has been the subject of countless attacks. It has inspired some members of Congress to attempt to pass legislation to chill political speech, caused the President to chastise the Supreme Court during the State of the Union, and even led to irrational demands that we amend the Constitution to curtail the Freedom of Speech.
Despite the heated rhetoric, little in politics has changed. Before Citizens United, candidates, independent groups and political parties ran political ads. Shockingly, the same is true after Citizens United. Some lament the amount of money spent on political speech, but as George Will has noted, Americans will spend more money on Easter candy than they spend electing a President.
The liberal drumbeat against the decision seems to be led by a group of leftist non-profit organizations. These groups, with such good governance names as Democracy Unlimited, Democracy 21, Public Citizen, and Common Cause, are fighting to overturn the First Amendment.
One such non-profit organization, Democracy Unlimited, has launched the Move to Amend campaign. Their campaign hopes to pass a constitutional amendment to curtail the First Amendment. This group plans to celebrate the second anniversary of the Citizens United decision by staging "Occupy the Courts" protests across the country. While the corporate-owned press will praise these protests, I have little doubt that if a conservative non-profit employed a similar tactic it would be dismissed as "Astroturf" lobbying, rather than heralded as a populist uprising. Of course the anti-corporate speech protest is paid for and sponsored by Democracy Unlimited.
When I sued the FEC I was fighting to protect the freedom of speech. I'm glad to see these liberals and their corporate sponsors exercising that right.

Arcade Fire and Ice
Forget about the Grammys! It's another exciting edition of Pundays, where we take an in-depth look at the best and worst of the NHL.com front page pun headlines. And this past week featured the first of what I'm sure will be many pun-filled headlines announcing a NHL trade.
You better believe that re-acquiring Francois Beauchemin was a bold move by the Anaheim Ducks.
Now that the Ducks have strengthened their blueline, you might say they are back in… oh, for chrissakes!!
I'm sorry for taking the Lords name in vain, I know this is a family-friendly blog. Please accept my sincere apology.
Click here to check out the best and worst NHL.com pun headlines from the past week!!!
It must have been 80's week at the NHL.com pun headline writing offices… because they were busting out old references left and right.
Because Jon Lovitz is always hip.
You say the best skier in town just ran off with your girlfriend?
I've heard that John Cougar Mellencamp gets a lot of airplay in the NHL offices.
Especially from Bettman's.
But we don't come to Pundays to celebrate the greatest decade ever… no we come for the awful puns of hockey players names!
I had no idea what The Mighty Boosh was until I googled it. And I still don't.
And of course, the entire hockey world was talking about the fights that happened last week. And since I wasn't around a computer Friday and Saturday… I didn't grab any funny pun headlines of the Pens-Islanders melee. So, like the NHL did for 25 seasons, you'll have to settle for the Bruins-Canadiens.
This headline is only great because of that shit-eating-grin on Greg Campbell's face in the middle.
I bet his dad will be emailing him about this.
"Tim Robbin'" on the lower headline for Tim Thomas is just pure pun genius.
I love the world where Pat LaFontaine gets excited to meet Tim Robbins.
And of course the other big Bruin news to come out last week was the shutting down of Marc Savard's season. And I have to say the pun headline writers missed an opportunity here.
Top 3 Rejected Headlines
1. Savard Head-ing to the Press Box
2. Concussion Marc's the Spot
3. Savard Head-Spin O Rama
And don't think that just because a pun headline writer is writing about a video they can't throw down the pun gauntlet.
And honestly… what is better than a day at the zoo?
I thought they were talking about Sami Lepisto's yell.
And we have a tie for this weeks winner of the Punday Headline of the Week, Foreign or Domestic…
I had no idea what this pun meant, so special thanks to VagabondJim for providing the following translation:
"A garrison is a fort or castle. So, armies have "stormed" garrisons for as long as "Europeans" have been fighting wars."
Using Ilya Kovalchuk's face in reference to any New Jersey Devils' win, not just Jacques Lemaire's 600th, is fantastic.

Woman was dragged into car and taken off by sex attacker
A MAN has been sentenced to eight years in jail for the kidnap and sexual assault of a woman in a "night of horror".
Daniel Carroll (23) also pleaded guilty to false imprisonment, actual bodily harm and driving whilst disqualified and with no insurance on December 21, 2012.
The "beautiful and bright" young victim was dragged into a car in Dundalk before being driven to Newry and subjected to a terrifying sex assault.
Carroll's co-accused is Aileen Gray (27), of Ardcarn Park in Newry, who the court heard was initially driving the car during the incident.
She has pleaded guilty to false imprisonment, with charges of assault and kidnapping left on the books at the courts. She will be sentenced later.
At Newry Crown Court, Judge Kevin Finnegan said he had taken into account the impact that Carroll's actions had on his victim's future and career.
The court was told that while Carroll's offending was not considered of the highest threshold, it was still a "violent abduction of the highest order".
The defendant, of Francis Hughes Park, Belleeks in Newry, was sentenced to eight years on counts of kidnapping and false imprisonment, two years for assault occasioning actual bodily harm, eight months for sexual assault, six months for driving while disqualified and a conditional discharge for no insurance. He was further disqualified for two years on each motoring offence.

San Francisco Chronicle
"The Silver Screen is a lovely meditation about the fragile bond between parents and children and about having the courage to take second chances. But more than this, it is about the choices we make, the compromises that result and the lies, both spoken and unspoken, that we keep to maintain the peace." June Sawyers
Seattle Times
"One of the central mysteries of the novel is why Isabel Maher left her career to return to her old boyfriend, marry him and choose a life of bland domesticity. … How it all plays out is Howard's genius at work." Valerie Ryan
NY Times Book Review
"Then there are the gorgeous webs of reflection and connection she weaves around her characters and their times. True, they can hamper movement, but putting aside the sweep of Howard's theme, which alone would make Silver Screen a work of desolate illumination, they add a whole store of individual discoveries." Richard Eder
Philadelphia Inquirer
"Baggage from the past clutters the present, and too often the expectations of others define lives. … Early on, Howard's narrative raises questions and shrewdly delays explanations." Katherine Bailey
Washington Post
"I imagine … that this novel and these characters involve a search for the authentic, which is a noble undertaking. But shouldn't your characters be authentic to start with?" Carolyn See
"I can't stifle the suspicion that, accomplished as she is, Howard has depended too heavily on allusion to carry us, when what some of us need, sitting here in the dark, is to see the whole movie. What's missing is the energy and conviction that engages us with the loves and the rages, the losses and intense confrontations of fully realized characters." Kit Reed
Critical Summary
Silver Screen is Howard's eighth historical novel. Throughout her career, critics have lauded her engaging stream of consciousness style, and Silver Screen is no exception. Most critics are pleased with the tale of Bel Murphy, an actress who opts out of her own career and directs the lives of those around her with varying degrees of success. However, some reviewers found Howard's interweaving timeline disengaging and would have preferred a more direct storyline. Others viewed her seasonal construct unnecessary, and her characters unconvincing. Buck up. After summer, there's always autumn.

text: Hi, So far, we have always packages ``All the packages fit to package''. The only criteria has been that we be legally allowed to package software, and that some one finds it useful enough to spend the effort packaging it. Indeed, when we could not distribute the binaries, we created sourece only packages, or installer packages. It was, IMHO, a judicious mix of free software evengelism, and one of creating the *BEST* distribution, with all the useful software we could package. I could almost always find any software available out there already packaged for debian. We were the inclusive distribution, and we showed our comitment to free software by only bundling free software on our CD's, and our commitment to useful distribution and our social contract by packaging and supporting the other software that did not meet our guidelines but was useful to our users. I like the fact we can cater to people who like free software (never put non-free in your apt sources), as well as to people who just want a useful distribution -- and we can, gently, try to win them over to free alternatives wehre such exist. We offer a choice, we do not impose. We evangelize, we do not force. Those who think this does not help Debian obviously have not really thought it through. This GR is disturbin. It throws away the promises made in the social contract. It is exclusionary. It reduces the utility of Debian to a number of users, and thus would marginalize us into a non entity. And it makes us committed to the free distribution, as opposed to the best free distribution. I am not convinced that this is a good idea. manoj -- As I was passing Project MAC, I met a Quux with seven hacks.

I suppose we want the autobuilders to generate verbose log, but I am not sure if we want the autobuilders to use a non-empty DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS (and whether we can). It is unfortunately possible than a typo in debian/rules only trigger if DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS is set to some value. Most packages will only provide verbose log, so it is rather terse logs that are optionnal. So maybe the option should be DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=terse.

IronPython 1.0 Beta 1 released
Jeremy Jones
URL: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=94082d26-e689-4f7f...IronPython is a .NET implementation of Python, created by Jim Hugunin who is currently working for Microsoft. Jim didn't specify a date when to expect 1.0 final, but he did mention that he'd prefer to keep it under 10 beta releases. As always, I'm happy to see the continued emphasis of CPython compatibility with this project. Microsoft takes a continual beating for "not playing nicely with others", but I haven't seen anything with the IronPython project that would lend itself to such criticism. I haven't had a chance to install 1.0 yet. Maybe I'll get to that next year.... :-)
Jeremy Jones is a software engineer who works for Predictix. His weapon of choice is Python.

You know those nights when all you want is cheesy comfort and calories just don't matter? Usually we reach for the phone and call the local pizza joint when those hit (a bit too often lately, if we're being honest), but stuffed bread is just as easy and packs even more cheesy goodness into each slice than a normal pie. I keep at least one store-bought pizza dough package on hand in the freezer at all times for easy meals and this one certainly fits the bill. Get creative with the stuffing, too, just don't skimp on that cheese!

Skip to comments.Magazine firebombed for Sharia edition in France publishes Prophet Mohammed cartoon book
Posted on 01/04/2013 6:21:00 AM PST by Olog-hai
A satirical magazine in France once firebombed for its portrayal of the Prophet Mohammed has published a 65-page cartoon biography of the Islamic holy figure.
Charlie Hebdo put together a 65-page comic book, which went on sale yesterday. The magazines website claims the publication is halal, insisting that Muslim scholars and historians researched and edited the cartoon book.
But it is likely to cause offense to some Muslims, and pictures include Mohammed naked as a baby as well as violent images and other explicit scenes.

They really are sticking to their guns as well as upping the ante. Also remarkable that this has come out with Frances current government being majority socialist . . .

Gallic Ping.
Geez--We can't have offended Muzzies now, can we?
Call me when the press starts worrying about Christian tax-payers who are carrying the load.
Telling muzzies what mo'hamhead did is the greatest insult of all.
I'd like to read this - anyone know how to get it in English ?
You could insert this phrase into almost any news story and it works.
They appear to be equal-opportunity offenders.
Ha Ha Ha!
(Only I would have replaced asner with a maritime toilet)
Bless their little socialist hearts...this is awesome.

An Analysis of Rhetorical Strategies "I Have A Dream" Introduction Persuasion is the art of convincing your audience to feel the same way on a controversial issue as you do. Through the ages, writers and speakers have developed and employed a range of rhetorical strategies they use to help persuade their audiences to follow their way of thinking. Thesis In Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech, King relies on rhetorical strategies such as analogies, parallelism, and restatement to help persuade his audience. Analogy Example: "It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check; a check which has come back marked 'insufficient funds."
Explanation: An analogy is a comparison drawn between to seemingly unlike things to make a point. King sets up an analogy by comparing our civil rights as citizens to a check. He uses this to show how for African-Americans this has come back as a "back check." By employing this analogy in his speech, King reminds that the audience of the unfair treatment of African-Americans. Parellelism Example: "But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimmination. One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity."
Explanation: Parellelism is similarity in structure and grammar between sentences and phrases. In this excerpt from the text, King begins each sentence with "one hundred years later." The purpose of this strategy is to remind his audience that it has been 100 years since African-Americans were freed as slaves by Lincoln's signing of the Emancipation proclamation. By doing so, he reminds us that 100 years has passed and very little has changed. This persuades the audience that it is time for change. Restatement Example: "When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men...would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
Explanation: In this excerpt, King restates the idea that the Constituion and Declaration of Independence guaranteed all men (and women) the "unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Since this is his primary point in his speech, King uses the persuasive technique of restatement to further clarify and emphasize this idea to his audience by using different words to express the same idea. Conclusion Whether or not King's speech is effective is not the question. The mere fact that his speech has stood the test of time and now resides in student's textbooks all across the nation attest to that. The question is, what makes King's "I Have a Dream" speech effective? Through analysis of the text, it is quite evident that his use of analogy, repetition, and restatment was intentional and effectual. Otherwise, would the phrase "I Have a Dream" hold the recognition that it still does to this day?
