Poet and playwright Edna St. Vincent Millay was born in Rockland, Maine, on February 22, 1892. Her mother, Cora, raised her three daughters on her own after asking her husband to leave the family home in 1899. Cora encouraged her girls to be ambitious and self-sufficient, teaching them an appreciation of music and literature from an early age. In 1912, at her mother's urging, Millay entered her poem "Renascence" into a contest: she won fourth place and publication in The Lyric Year, bringing her immediate acclaim and a scholarship to Vassar College. There, she continued to write poetry and became involved in the theater. She also developed intimate relationships with several women while in school, including the English actress Wynne Matthison. In 1917, the year of her graduation, Millay published her first book, Renascence and Other Poems. At the request of Vassar's drama department, she also wrote her first verse play, The Lamp and the Bell (1921), a work about love between women.
After graduating from Vassar, Millay, whose friends called her "Vincent," moved to New York City's Greenwich Village, where she led a Bohemian life. She lived in a nine-foot-wide attic and wrote anything she could find an editor willing to accept. She and the other writers of Greenwich Village were, according to Millay herself, "very, very poor and very, very merry." She joined the Provincetown Players in its early days and befriended writers such as Witter Bynner, Edmund Wilson, Susan Glaspell, and Floyd Dell, who asked for Millay's to marry him. Millay, who was openly bisexual, refused, despite Dell's attempts to persuade her otherwise. That same year Millay published A Few Figs from Thistles (1920), a volume of poetry which drew much attention for its controversial descriptions of female sexuality and feminism. In 1923, Millay was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for The Ballad of the Harp-Weaver. In addition to publishing three plays in verse, Millay also wrote the libretto of one of the few American grand operas, The King's Henchman (1927).
Millay married Eugen Boissevain, a self-proclaimed feminist and widower of Inez Milholland, in 1923. Boissevain gave up his own pursuits to manage Millay's literary career, setting up the readings and public appearances for which Millay grew quite famous. According to Millay's own accounts, the couple acted liked two bachelors, remaining "sexually open" throughout their twenty-six-year marriage, which ended with Boissevain's death in 1949. Edna St. Vincent Millay died in 1950.

It has been some time since Roman Polanski made something as cagey and good-naturedly twisted as "The Ghost Writer." He's been off vacationing inside of his youthful trauma during the last decade ("The Pianist," "Oliver Twist"), which makes his new film a cunning achievement, steered by one of the filmdom's sharpest minds. Verbose but lovingly toxic, "The Ghost Writer" nails a perfect pitch of paranoia with a distinctly retro flair, restoring some needed maturity to the bustling business of thriller cinema.
A gifted writer, The Ghost (Ewan McGregor) is handed the assignment of a lifetime when the memoirs of former British Prime Minster Adam Lang (Pierce Brosnan) need a special literary shaping. Holing up in a beach house with Lang's aide Amelia (Kim Cattrall) and hardened wife Ruth (Olivia Williams), The Ghost begins the process of interviewing and researching, while Lang endures media scrutiny and legal heat for possible Middle East war crimes committed while in power. As the spotlight shines brightly on the Lang compound, The Ghost starts to uncover secrets left behind by the previous ghostwriter, who died under suspicious circumstances following the same informational trail, leading to an unfinished manuscript teeming with secrets.
Adapted by Robert Harris and Polanski from Harris's novel, "The Ghost Writer" is a superbly clean piece of filmmaking, confident with a plot that weaves around political machinations and surveys a polite batch of cautious suspects. While primarily a brain-tickler, the picture also works as a suspense piece and blends in a slightly satiric take on Bush-era politics, with Lang as the Tony Blair figure crucified for his whorish leadership skills. It's a sinister screenplay lined up perfectly with Polanski's varied gifts as a filmmaker, opening up a playground of shifting allegiances, sexual dalliances, and mysterious antagonists to tinker with while The Ghost slowly appreciates the danger he's stumbled into.
The forward thrust of paranoia is skillfully manipulated by Polanski, who holds to careful framing and personality quirks to fully flesh out the danger at hand. "Ghost Writer" is a more roguish film than it initially seems, taking a good 30 minutes to thaw out and begin the business of being wicked. And let's face it, Polanski's highly skilled at staging discomfort and forked-tongued exchanges, sweetened some by the balletic dialogue, which retains the devilish glint needed to fully devour the developing sin.
"Ghost Writer" is twisty, but never abusive with its poisonous revelations, a welcome development with a story that traffics in tired Halliburton/GWB chicanery that's too on-the-nose for this clever film. Admittedly, the last name/affiliation parade grows wearisome toward the film's midsection (the direction delivers more tell than show as The Ghost decodes the manuscript), but Polanski sustains a riveting tension throughout the feature, allowing matters to seemingly wind off course only to witness the puzzle pieces fall precisely into place by the film's conclusion.
Assisting with all the heavy lifting is the flawless cast, who charge proudly alongside the director, giving pleasingly mannered performances of sublime venom, with Williams and Brosnan revealing fangs for the first time in a long time as the Langs stumble into news network crosshairs. McGregor hits all the right beats of incredulity as his character strolls into quicksand, conveying a healthy read of panic and even curls of mischief when matters spin out of control.
"The Ghost Writer" receives a refreshing mood charger through Alexandre Desplat's bouncy score (a killer DNA match to the thrillers of the 1960s), and a closing shot of retribution that concludes the film on a deviously shocking note. "The Ghost Writer" snaps Polanski back on track after a solid decade of fruitful introspection, reaffirming an exceptional filmmaker comfortable depicting hospitable villainy and wicked paths of deception.

|System: Xbox 360, PS3
|Dev: Reverge Labs

The game itself is a six-button (three punch, three kick) Marvel vs. Capcom-style affair. Before each match starts, you get to choose your team size of one to three characters. The fewer characters you use, the more powerful they become, though teams with more characters gain access to assists, DHCs, tag counters, and more. Speaking of assists, you can literally set any move in the game as an assist move for all characters on your team. The game has a built in "unblockable protection system," which allows your opponent to block when you and an assist character hit high and low at the same time. So you can be as creative as you like without putting your opponent in an impossible position.
But more than anything else, the game is fair. Damage is high enough to make combos count but low enough to prevent one-touch deaths. Combos are never long enough to make the opponent feel as if he's not playing the game, due to the infinite prevention system. Zoning characters have incredibly powerful keepaway tools but are weak in ways that allow you eventually close the distance. Rushdown characters can put horrible pressure on the opponent, but can be punished to great extents if they get sloppy. There is even a character with near infinite flight who can't run away while using it, and a grappler that just might be the best grappler in any fighting game ever. Every character has the exact tools she needs and feels incredibly powerful and "correct" without feeling broken.
Then there's the netplay, which utilizes the popular GGPO networking library. When playing online, the game will actually show your ping in plain old numbers and will give you an "input delay" recommendation to make the game feel as smooth as possible. As long as you follow these recommendations, the game has one of the best if not the best online performances of any fighting game yet. However, you can always adjust the delay higher to experience fewer rollbacks (game adjustments when you fall out of synch with your opponent) or lower to experience more with the tradeoff of having split-second responsive controls. You can fight in ranked and unranked fights, but multi-person lobbies are unfortunately absent. Once again, this is something the developers have promised to patch in later.
Skullgirls is as close to art as the fighting game genre is going to get. From its quirky character designs (you just have to love characters based on 1940s cartoons) to its incredible gameplay systems, it shows that the designers of the game put a lot of care into every aspect of it. It's just unfortunate that time and budgetary problems have forced them to leave some features behind. However, many of these features are planned to be released for free as updates in the future, and the team has promised an incredible amount of DLC support, from characters to costumes to story expansions and more. For the low budget price of fifteen dollars, you can't really ask for anything more. Whether you are a fighting game veteran itching to toy with the game's open combo system or a newbie looking to take advantage of the game's amazing tutorial to hone your skills, you owe it to yourself to give Skullgirls a chance.

Taylor Mead, an underground cinema legend whose comic charm and sense of the surreal inspired Andy Warhol and other seminal figures in the alternative film world, died Wednesday in Denver. He was 88.
A fixture of bohemian New York who was also a poet and artist, Mead was visiting family in Colorado when he had a stroke, said his niece, Priscilla Mead.
Called "the Charlie Chaplin of the 1960s underground," Mead was an elfin figure with kewpie-doll eyes who appeared, by his count, in 130 films, starting with the 1960 art house classic "The Flower Thief." In a review for the Village Voice, film critic J. Hoberman pronounced him "the first underground movie star."
PHOTOS: Notable deaths of 2013
He later became one of Warhol's first superstars, appearing in films such as "Tarzan and Jane Regained … Sort Of" and "Lonesome Cowboys." He also was known for his work in Ron Rice's "The Queen of Sheba Meets the Atom Man" and Robert Downey Sr.'s "Babo 73."
Indie auteur Jim Jarmusch, who cast Mead in a moving vignette that closed his 2003 film "Coffee and Cigarettes," considered Mead one of his heroes.
A dropout from a life of privilege, Mead allied himself with Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac and other early leaders of the San Francisco Beat scene of the 1950s before settling in New York to eke out a living as a member of its thriving arts underground.
He was a familiar face on Manhattan's Lower East Side, where he wandered the streets with a notebook, read his poetry in coffeehouses – often against a background of a Charles Mingus recording – and fed feral cats in the predawn hours.
"Taylor was a spark who inspired filmmakers, poets and artists on both coasts," said Haden Guest, director of the Harvard Film Archive, which sponsored a Mead retrospective last fall. "He saw his life as his art and his art as his life and didn't separate them the way we do today."
He was the subject of "Excavating Taylor Mead," a 2005 documentary by William Kirkley that knits the actor's personal history with later struggles to hold on to his decrepit New York apartment and maintain his free-spirited life.
Born on the last day of 1924 in Grosse Pointe, Mich., Mead was the son of a wealthy businessman and his socialite wife who divorced before he was born. He floated through boarding schools and a number of colleges before his father found him a job in a brokerage house, which was not to his liking.
Openly gay since he was about 12, he left the East Coast in the mid-1950s, hitchhiked to California and studied acting at the Pasadena Playhouse.
Inspired by "Pull My Daisy," a short 1959 film based on the Kerouac play "Beat Generation," he collaborated with Rice on "The Flower Thief," a somewhat haphazardly structured film shot with a handheld camera that features Mead wandering through San Francisco coffeehouses and dives carrying a flower, an American flag and a teddy bear.
"There was no plot, no planning," he told the Philadelphia City Paper in 2005. "It was … extremely spontaneous, and all of us were just crazy anyway."
Village Voice critic J. Hoberman praised it as "the beatnik film par excellence," with Mead playing "a kind of Zen village idiot."
In 1964, before Warhol was a pop-art mega-celebrity, he invited Mead on a road trip to California for the opening of a gallery show. They wound up making "Tarzan and Jane Regained…Sort Of," a spoof of Hollywood adventure movies that was Warhol's first partially scripted feature. It starred Mead as a Hollywood Tarzan cavorting with a naked Jane in a bathtub at the Beverly Hills Hotel, exercising on Venice Beach and having a bicep-flexing contest with Dennis Hopper as a rival Tarzan.
Mead would appear in about 10 Warhol films over the next decade, including a curious 76-minute piece featuring his naked rear end.
Calling himself "a drifter in the arts," Mead also acted on stage, winning an Obie Award in 1963 for his performance in the Frank O'Hara play "The General Returns From One Place to Another." He published poetry and three volumes of his journals, displayed his art in the 2006 Whitney Biennial and read his poems weekly at Manhattan's Bowery Poetry Club.
"His whole campaign was, stay creative, active, busy. And he did," said filmmaker and friend Clayton Patterson.
He made his biggest splash in decades in 2003 in Jarmusch's "Coffee and Cigarettes," a loosely connected series of vignettes with a wide-ranging cast including Bill Murray, Cate Blanchett, Tom Waits and Iggy Pop. Critics were moved by Mead's performance as a janitor on a coffee break who doesn't want to go back to work. The film ends with Mead closing his eyes to the strains of a favorite Mahler song, which resonated with his colorful past:
I am dead to the world's tumult,
And I rest in a quiet realm!
I live alone in my heaven,
In my love and in my song!

I just learnt that the Valentino F/W 10 ad campaign will feature models in the nude which is not entirely a fresh subject. The question is what is the point of nudity in fashion where clothes are supposed to cover up our bits and the only answer that comes to mind is the artistic value of nudity. But having said that, ad campaigns are supposed to showcase a designers clothes and I feel nudity in the ad takes the eye and attention away from the main purpose of the ad. It just does not make sense to me why nudity in fashion is here to stay and we will always be confronted with these images quite frequently. And so we have it, the Valentino F/W 10 ad campaign featuring Freja Beha Erichsen, Monika "Jac" Jagaciak and Tati Cotillard in alternating nude images with ones that have them in the label's clothes. The ad also features male model, Alex Gilbert. Here is a preview of the ad shot by David Sims

The Chiefs lost at home to the Chargers on Sunday. Their ability to not lose at home next Sunday to the Broncos could hinge on the outcome of a pair of MRI exams.
Coach Andy Reid said after the Week 12 loss that linebacker Tamba Hali will have an MRI on his sprained ankle, and that linebacker Justin Houston will have an MRI on his injured elbow. Both players left the game and did not return.
They have combined for 20 sacks this season, so the Chiefs will need them next week against Peyton Manning.
Then again, neither that duo nor anyone else on the team was even able to get a hand on Manning last Sunday night, so maybe it won't matter.

Conor McCarthy needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 41 designs submitted by 11 freelance designers.
Hi, Conor from Ireland here. Please help make Outflopped a success by designing a great logo!
Email: info at outflopped.com
All poker players, but more specifically online players.
Edit: if 3 cards are included and have a value (ace, 5h, jack etc) please make the values 5, 6 and 7.
Final design should be scalable to 250x61px and contain the word 'Outflopped'.
It may also contain 'Poker Q&A' but this is not mandatory.
I would like if the logo gave some inkling to the visitor that the site it about poker.
In poker parlance the work Outflopped means to have your initial stating hand beaten when the first 3 board cards are dealt (the flop). Therefore, showing a flop - 3 cards sidebyside - would make sense, but again, not mandatory.
The current color scheme (the site) can be seen at http://www.outflopped.com
As this is a website that a person will return to often, a complex 'heavy' logo will become a strain on the person over time - so I would prefer something light and simple.
Would like if a favicon was included in the final submission.

LG Announces 4X HD Quad Core Tegra 3 Smartphone With ICS
Subject: Mobile | February 24, 2012 - 07:35 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: tegra 3, smartphone, quad core, LG, hd, 720p, 4x hd
Last year LG debuted a dual core smarphone at Mobile World Congress, and this year the company is upping the ante to a new Android smartphone powered by a 1.5GHz Tegra 3 quad core processor. Yes, this is still a smartphone, just with a processor that has usually been reserved for tablets like the Transformer Prime.
LG plans to reveal the new Android smartphone at this year's Mobile World Congress 2012 in Spain. The new phone is called the LG Optimus 4X HD and is a 8.9mm thick slab with "prism like" contours and edges. On the outside of the phone, it features a 4.7" True HD IPS display with a resolution of 1280 x 720, a LED flash, and two cameras. On the front is a 1.3 megapixel camera and the rear camera is 8 megapixel BSI (Backside Illumination Sensor) camera.
The inside of the phone houses some fairly impressive hardware as well. The phone is powered by a Tegra 3 quad core processor running at 1.5 GHz, 1 GB of LP DDR2 RAM, and 16 GB of internal storage. Backing all this hardware is a 2,150 mAh battery. LG Mobile CEO Dr. Jong-seok Park stated that:
"Speed in itself isn't what makes LG Optimus 4X HD unique. It's the benefit we're bringing to customers with the HD multimedia experience in a mobile form factor."
The LG 4X HD will be running the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system and will be available in Europe during the second quarter of this year. The company will further be showing the device off at Mobile World Congress 2012 at the LG stand in Hall 8 from February 27 to March 1.
Do you think the world needs a quad core smartphone yet?

<"The thing with Somnak is that he tries. He strives for the better life of the civilized, he strives to shed his barbaric roots, he strives to better himself.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
By Tuesday afternoon it appeared a 72-hour ceasefire between Israel and Hamas was holding, as the two sides negotiated a more lasting truce in Cairo.
But amidst the tense quiet, serious questions were raised as to whether or not Israel had achieved the stated aims of the war by creating the kind of deterrence that would prevent Hamas from starting another war a year or two from now.
Without question, Israel failed to reach the lofty objective of Gaza's disarmament, and no one expects Hamas to voluntarily throw down its arms.
The government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says 900 Hamas and allied terrorists were killed, 32 terror tunnels were found and destroyed, and Gaza's arsenal of missiles was significantly reduced over the past month of fighting.
Nevertheless, a great many Israelis, particularly those who live in the vicinity of Gaza, say they feel no more secure than they did at the start of Operation Protective Edge.
"They say when the war is over we can return home," Salait Feter told Israel's Ynet news portal. "But I can't say that I feel we're returning to a safe place. It's not a safe place to raise my children."
"It's not right to start an operation and then suddenly fold, while telling us everything is now OK," Feter continued. "What about the rest of the tunnels? What about the regular rocket attacks?"
"They keep saying the mission against the tunnels is almost complete, but we know that's not true," added Inbal Hamoui. "We don't want to return to a situation where they tell us the problem is taken care of, only to have Hamas prove them wrong."
Even if the IDF did manage to severely impede the terrorists' ability to attack Israelis for the time being, there is little doubt that as soon as the war is officially over, Hamas will immediately return to digging terror tunnels and building missiles.
"The deterrence power of the Israeli army has eroded dramatically. During the last 26 days, the army carried out air, ground and naval attack against Hamas, but it did not succeed to treat [the problem]," said Tourism Minister Uzi Landau.
Pulling out of Gaza prematurely had, according to Landau, sent a "destructive message regarding Israeli deterrence."
Hamas agreed.
"The destruction of Israeli deterrence" was one of the primary outcomes of the war, declared Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri. "The Palestinian people now have confidence in their ability to stand firm and fight."
But Netanyahu, under tremendous international pressure to stop warring against the Gaza terrorist infrastructure, stood by his decision to withdraw all Israeli ground forces from the coastal enclave ahead of the current ceasefire.
"We did everything to make the most of it," Netanyahu told reporters, acknowledging that there was no way to guarantee all the terror tunnels had been destroyed. "This is a complicated mission done by heroic soldiers under harsh fighting conditions."

The Sports Xchange
By Mike Shalin, The Sports Xchange
BOSTON -- The Red Sox banged out 17 hits and four home runs, two by backup catcher David Ross, and Ryan Dempster picked up his first win for his new team as Boston beat the Houston Astros 7-3 on Friday night.
Ross connected for his second and third homers and went 4 for 4. David Ortiz hit his second mammoth homer in as many nights and Will Middlebrooks had his sixth of the season as the Red Sox stroked nine extra-base hits off Erik Bedard (0-2) and two relievers.
Dempster (1-2) gave up four hits and two runs while matching his season high with 10 strikeouts in six innings. Four relievers finished up.
Dustin Pedroia had three hits for the first-place Red Sox, who have won three straight and four of the last five to go to 16-7. They have been in first place for all 26 days of the season, a club record.
Jose Altuve hit two sacrifice flies for the Astros (7-16), who lost their seventh straight road game.
Ortiz is hitting .500 (12 for 24) with two homers and six RBI in six games since coming off the disabled list.
Boston pitchers struck out 14, giving the Red Sox 232 Ks for the month, the most a Boston staff has ever had in any month.
The Rangers scored two runs in the first on doubles by Elvis Andrus, Lance Berkman and Nelson Cruz, who has 13 RBI in the past six games.
The Red Sox took a 1-0 lead in the first inning when Jacoby Ellsbury led off with a single off the glove of first baseman Brandon Laird and then rode home on Pedroia's first double.
Dempster had four strikeouts through two innings and his pals gave him another run in the bottom of the second when Ross hit a 1-and-2 pitch with two outs for his first homer of the season. Pedro Ciriaco followed with a triple but couldn't score and Ellsbury grounded out.
Houston got a run back in the third when Matt Dominguez doubled, took third on a flyout and scored when Robbie Grossman grounded out to second.
But the Red Sox answered as Pedroia led off the bottom of the inning with a pop-fly double and scored when Mike Napoli doubled with two out. It was the 17th extra-base hit and 12th double for Napoli, both club records for April.
Middlebrooks led off the fourth with his home run and Ross followed with his second moon shot, this one knocking Bedard out of the game. It was the third time this season the Red Sox went back-to-back.
Houston got a run back in the fifth when Dominguez collected his second double, took third on a wild pitch and scored on Altuve's sacrifice fly.
Jonny Gomes, who misplayed the double, made a diving catch to his right to end the inning to rob Jason Castro. Ortiz then connected with one out in the bottom of the inning.
NOTES: Red Sox right fielder Shane Victorino missed his second straight and fourth game in less than a week with back spasms. Manager John Farrell reported improvement but hinted Victorino may well have to sit out the weekend. ... Houston manager Bo Porter says he's keeping right-hander Philip Humber in the rotation despite back-to-back disastrous starts. ... Slumping Red Sox shortstop Stephen Drew, just 5 for 42 this season, got the night off against the lefty starter, with Ciriaco playing short. Farrell said Ciriaco could get another start this weekend, which would likely be at third base. ... Houston rookie Brad Peacock, acquired in the deal that sent Jed Lowrie to Oakland, starts against Boston left-hander Felix Doubront on Saturday night. ... Center fielder Justin Maxwell, who had played in every inning of Houston's first 20 games before fracturing his left hand, won't need surgery and is slated to miss four to six weeks. ... Triple-A left-hander Rudy Owens, a candidate to join the Astros' rotation, will miss four to five months with a stress fracture of the left foot. He will have surgery Monday. ... Castro batted third for the 13th straight game. ... Red Sox reliever Joel Hanrahan (hamstring) gave up two hits, including a home run, and two hits pitching for triple-A Pawtucket on Friday night.

Last spring, my wife and, I were faced with a problem that I suppose most folks run into sooner or later: We wanted a garden—in fact, we desperately needed a garden - but we didn't have any place to put one.
At the time, I had just left the Army and was out of work, so the idea of spending my hard-to-come-by cash on overpriced supermarket produce wasn't all that attractive. Unfortunately, our landlord didn't like the notion of us digging a vegetable patch in the backyard any better . . . and even if he had, we would've hesitated.
You see, we hoped to move to a small farm sometime before the end of the growing season, and we didn't want to have to leave a still thriving garden behind. Besides, we'd already learned from experience that "we'd have to get up early in the morning" to protect a vegetable patch from our two mixed terriers. The "devilish duo" would get under or over any kind of fence we put in their way, and proceed to mangle whatever plants they could find.
So. We used a little ingenuity and came up with a different kind of garden that was portable and pet-proof and productive all at once. In short, we grew piles of tall-topped carrots, juicy tomatoes, and a bevy of other fresh fruits and vegetables . . . in baskets!
Now, I know that some dyed-in-the-wool traditionalists will turn their noses up at any garden not rooted deep in Mother Earth herself. But if your problems are similar to what ours were, or if you live in a small city apartment, or if you can't do all the stooping and bending that ground-level planting and weeding requires . . . well, then a basket garden can be a pretty good way to go!
Choose Your Containers
To start one, all you'll need is several containers large enough to hold a sufficient amount of soil to support living vegetation. In our case, we couldn't spend a fortune on oversized ceramic pots, and we didn't have any good "recyclables" (such as paint buckets or gallon-size plastic milk jugs). So we scouted a local discount store, where we discovered that ordinary clothes baskets were just fine for our purposes (and inexpensive to boot). The bushel size cost only 57¢ apiece, and the half-bushel just 37¢ . . . so we brought home three large and seventeen small baskets for a total price of just $8.00!
Next, we lined the containers with plain old "Hefty type" trash bags, and then filled the bottom of each with two inches of coarse gravel for drainage. On top of that we placed a layer of newspaper to keep the soil from washing down into the stones.
Fill With Potting Soil
Then we added the growing' medium itself. Gardening books call for a 1: 1: 1 ratio of peat moss, loam, and sand . . . and advise that rotted manure, leaves, grass clippings, and other well-shredded vegetation can also be mixed in. We, however, simply used three parts slightly, sandy (and rocky) soil from an empty field, combined with one part grass clippings judging from the way our plants thrived, I'd say just about any reasonably rich blend of natural materials that's light and loose enough to provide good aeration will work OK.
Finally, we poked a few small holes in the base of the lined containers to allow extra drainage, and placed stakes in the baskets in which we intended to grow tomatoes and peas.
A friend of ours had access to a number of wooden pallets that some local factories wanted to dispose of so he gave us two of the skids, from which we constructed a platform that kept our "garden" well above the reach of canine claws, but at just the right height for easy weeding. One of the discards made an "instant tabletop", and a few minutes' work with a crowbar and hammer gave us enough usable lumber from the other to build supporting legs and braces. (Incidentally, homesteaders might take note of the fact that throwaway pallets are a good source of free wood for rough construction. They can be used either disassembled or as whole "prefab" sections in any number of projects.)
Plant Your Vegetables
The final step in establishing our vegetable patch, of course, was the actual planting . . . but before jumping in "seeds first", we referred to three books which were especially helpful: [1] Raise Vegetables Without a Garden by Doc and Katy Abraham (Countryside Books, 1974); [2] All About Vegetables edited by Walter Doty (regionally oriented editions, published by Chevron Chemical Company, 1973); and [3] The Mother Earth News ® Almanac (THE MOTHER EARTH NEWS ® , Inc., 1973).
This information -- particularly the guides to natural pest control and companion planting in MOTHER'S Almanac— helped us choose the kinds of vegetables and fruits we felt would be most productive and best suited to our own needs and tastes.
We put two large-variety tomato plants (such as "Heinz" and "Country Fair") in each bushel basket, and found that a half-bushel container could accommodate either a pair of small tomato vines (such as Burpee's "Early Girl") or four good size pepper plants. Our remaining baskets were seeded with radishes, onions, carrots, peas, miniature corn, strawberries, and cucumbers. We planted relatively early in the season, kept the containers out in the sun on warm days, and simply carried them back into the house whenever a chill threatened. (My poor ole Dad lost two successive sets of tomatoes to late frosts in his regular garden . . . but our portable vegetables stayed cozy and warm— and healthy -- the whole time.)
Obviously, there's much less moisture-retaining soil in a "container garden" than in a conventional plot, so we did have to give our "babies" frequent waterings. (One possible solution might be to fold the tops of the trash bag liners over the soil, punch holes in the sacks, and then let the plants grow through. We haven't tried it yet, but suspect the plastic would act as a good water-holding, weed-stifling mulch.) We also had to add extra dirt occasionally as the original material settled but aside from those two minor measures and a little careful bug-watching and squashing, and cultivating (none of which ever required bending our backs) our food practically grew by itself!
All that summer and fall, we enjoyed a vast and abundant variety of fresh produce straight from one table (the plants') to another (ours). And we never so much as picked up stake the whole year!
So . . . you say supermarket prices are killing your budget, but (moan, groan) you don't have space to grow your own vegetables? Buy a bunch of baskets!

|Undergraduate Degree Type(s)
|Program Description
|Mathematics in its purest form is an art concerned with ideas. The Department of Mathematics and Statistics believes that an undergraduate major should be both an introduction to more advanced study and a survey of the many facets of mathematics.
Unlike many other disciplines, mathematics is a very structured subject. Consequently, the curriculum consists of sequences of interrelated courses which must be taken in the appropriate order. The courses in mathematics are organized with the needs of three groups of students in mind:
|Admission Requirements
|Admission to major is required for enrollment in 300 and 400 level courses. Requirements for admission are:
|Other Requirements
|All students majoring in mathematics should complete Calculus (Math 121, 122, 223), Linear Algebra (Math 247) and Foundations (Math 290) in their first two years as preparation for more advanced courses.
Mathematics majors preparing for teacher licensure are required to complete Intermediate Analysis (Math 316), College Geometry (Math 332), Abstract Algebra (Math 345), Probability and Statistics (Math 354), Discrete Mathematics (Math 375), Advanced Viewpoint of 5-8 School Mathematics (Math 483), Technology in 5-12 School Mathematics (Math 484), Teaching Secondary School Mathematics (Math 485) and Capstone Experience (Math 492) along with the courses for professional education in the College of Education.

This is exacerbated at high densities. Their raw error rate is lower. The SAS versions have other goodies.

One interesting thing is that they said drives died sooner at temperatures usually recommended for data centers, since they were age-tested at higher temperatures, so bias crept in. I've seen that anecdotally myself.

IIRC the official explanation is that there's a zero counter issue triggered by some measurement devices, which renders the drive inaccessible when switched on. It can still be recovered with appropriate (difficult to find out, since, as frequently, there's the same serial for a wide range of devices, and only Seagate has databases which know for sure). I'm not sure I buy this explanation, since I've seen a lot of creeping SMART issues with that product line, and I've had a lot of drives fail while on. Maybe they're having different issues.

The championship banners and retired jerseys hanging along the Staples Center rafters represent what continuously drives the Lakers' franchise. The two NBA titles the Miami Heat has collected in the past two seasons illustrate what drives theirs.
But when the Lakers (13-15) host the Heat (21-6) in a marquee Christmas Day matchup at Staples Center, this hardly will serve as an NBA Finals preview as many wrongly anticipated three years ago.
Far from it.
The Heat rank second behind the Indiana Pacers in a mediocre Eastern Conference. The Lakers remain 10th in a competitive Western Conference. Miami has LeBron James in his prime with no signs of slowing down. The Lakers have Kobe Bryant, who remains five weeks from returning because of a fractured left knee. The Heat has Dwyane Wade, who's mostly played this season through aches and pains. The Lakers have Steve Nash, whose nerve issues in his back have kept him mostly sidelined.
When the Lakers and Heat take the court today they also will represent a case study on how two teams going in opposite directions build a championship roster this offseason amid a labor deal that punishes high-spending teams.
James, Wade and Chris Bosh teamed up three years ago and boasted they'd win "multiple championships." They won two out of three NBA Finals appearances. But with each of them having the chance to opt out of their contract in the 2014 offseason, will the Heat have the funds to keep all three?
Larry Coon, an independent NBA salary cap expert who works as an IT director at UC Irvine, estimated James, Wade and Bosh would have to trim off at least $12 million to $16 million off their combined $60 million salary to ensure that happens.
This season, all NBA teams that spent over the luxury-tax threshold at $71.5 million paid more luxury taxes in hopes to increase more parity and decrease more bloated contracts. The cost entailed a ratio depending on how much teams spent over the tax threshold, including $1.50-to-$1 ratio for the first $4.99 million, $1.75-to $1 ratio between $5-$9.99 million, a $2.5-$1 ratio for $10 million to $14.99 million over and a $3.25 ratio for $15 million to $19.99 million.
This offseason also marks the first time NBA teams will have to pay a so-called "repeater tax."
"They can have a big three," ESPN analyst Jeff Van Gundy said. "It's more about how many owners are willing to go into the luxury tax and pay the penalties. The profit margins of these owners in the bigger markets, they make a ton of profit. How many of them are willing to reinvest in their teams?
"But the Lakers have always proven they will pay for elite level talent."
The Lakers showed that with Bryant by signing him to a two-year, $48.5 million extension before he even returned from a left Achilles tendon injury that sidelined him for eight months. But it also could yield some consequences.
The deal marked a pay cut from the $30.5 million he's earning this season, but Bryant remained the NBA's highest paid player at the expense of maximizing the Lakers' financial flexibility.
Bryant's deal will enable the Lakers only to pursue one max-level free agent instead of two within the next two years. The 2014 candidates include James, Carmelo Anthony, Zach Randolph, Rudy Gay and Luol Dang. The 2015 candidates include Kevin Love, Rajon Rondo, LaMarcus Aldridge and Marc Gasol. In 2016, stars such as Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook will hit the open market.
"This simply pushes the Lakers' strategy to have financial flexibility back a year to where there are better free agents," Coon said. "But what it doesn't do is get Kobe more rings before he retires. His choice could've been the money or the possibility of more rings."
The Lakers argue otherwise.
Bryant hasn't spoken to reporters since fracturing his left knee last week. But shortly after signing his extension he downplayed whether his deal significantly hampered the team's financial flexibility.
"I think the fans are, God bless them, they're fans and have good intentions and a good spirit about it," Bryant said. "But I don't think they understand the cap or what strategically the Lakers are trying to do better than the Lakers do. I think we'll be all right."
"There's a lot of ways in addition to being able to pursue a free agent that you can pursue," Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak said of the team's cap flexibility. "We have done some things in the past where we have used it to our advantage."
The Lakers last year found out money doesn't secure NBA championships. The Lakers shelled out a $100 million payroll to feature a starting lineup with Bryant, Nash, Dwight Howard, Pau Gasol and Metta World Peace. But that lineup fell apart in a first-round sweep to the San Antonio Spurs amid overlapping injuries and player and coach agendas. In similar fashion, the Brooklyn Nets also are discovering a $187 million payroll has yielded only more misery. The Nets (9-18) paired expensive acquisitions (Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce) with high-priced holdovers (Deron Williams, Brook Lopez) and a rookie coach (Jason Kidd).
The Lakers took a different approach last offseason.
Before Bryant's signing, the Lakers only had three players under contract next season, including Nash ($9.7 million), Nick Young ($1.2 million) and Robert Sacre ($915,243). Should Nash's back issue persist, they could waive him next season via the so-called stretch provision. The Lakers could trade Gasol, let him leave or sign him at a reduced price from the $19.3 million he makes this season. Meanwhile, the Lakers signed a roster full of castoffs on one-year deals at the veteran's minimum.
Not only has that created a locker room full of hungry players willing to do anything to secure an NBA future, but it also ensured breakout performances for role players such as Xavier Henry, Wesley Johnson and Young.
"There are other manipulations and trades that you can possibly get due to the fact that you're playing so many young players and developing value there," ESPN NBA analyst Hubie Brown said. "For those combinations, that could possibly bring you something else."
How that plays out remains to be seen. But even with a changing landscape, there's a certain equity that the Lakers have built through 16 NBA titles.
"I never discount the Lakers' ability when they are in need of injecting more talent into their roster," Van Gundy said. "They have a history of making the right moves."

(CNN) -- The reminders are everywhere: Wash your hands. Use hand sanitizers. Stay away from class if you're sick.
Cornell student Vishnu Patel wears a "Got Soap" shirt as he spreads awareness about the flu.
College students said they're reminded nearly daily about flu prevention by e-mail updates, posters and ubiquitous hand sanitizer dispensers around campus. Yet, despite the pervasive prevention messages, many students said they're not too worried. Those who have been sick said it was no different than the seasonal flu.
"Students are going about their business as normal," said Dr. James Turner, the executive director of the department of student health at the University of Virginia. "They're asking, 'What's the big deal?' Some of them are aggravated. Those that are sick report feeling miserable. They recover uneventfully and go on. There's more anxiety among parents and staff trying to respond on campus to various needs."
Since August, 13,434 cases of the flu have been reported by the 253 schools contributing data to the American College Health Association. Of the cases, there have been 21 hospitalizations. This data do not include all U.S. universities.
"There's plenty of opportunity to spread infections," said Turner, who is also president of the association. He noted that students "tend to socialize in large groups, frats, bars, sharing the drinking glasses, smoking material. They're in real close contact, densely packed into parties which are all breeding grounds for infections."
Two student deaths related to the flu have been reported this school year. Andrew Salter, a freshman at Troy University in Troy, Alabama, died on September 5. The student had the flu, possibly H1N1, before he was hospitalized for pneumonia, according to a university spokesman.
Six days later, Cornell University student Warren J. Schor, 20, died of complications related to H1N1 flu, according to a statement released by the Ithaca, New York, university.
Since school started in mid to late August, the Southeast had a high rate of H1N1 infection, but those rates are dwindling, while in other areas the rates are increasing, Turner said.
"We're seeing increasing rates in the Midwest and mid-Atlantic areas," he said. "This has to do with when schools start classes... We're going to see regional outbreaks, timed around when classes are reconvening."
When David Accame returned for his sophomore year at the University of Maryland, College Park, he wasn't worried about H1N1.
"There's always the risk of sickness when you're around so many people in close quarters," said Accame, who lives in the dorms. "I didn't think anything of it more than a regular cold."
Then in early September, Accame came down with a headache, stuffy nose, cough, sore throat and a 103-degree fever. After taking Tamiflu, Accame recovered in a few days. His illness sparked some anxiety among his roommates.
"Both my roommates sprayed down everything. They sprayed my bed with Lysol, all the silverware, desk, everywhere," he said.
Other than the brief illness, Accame said "this school year has been the same as the last."
Some have opted for a humorous approach, forming Facebook groups such as "not living on campus and as a result, not having swine flu" and "We hate swine flu affected students."
Several students said they are aware of the risks and are taking precautionary measures. Blog: Back to school flus
Michelle Zeng, a Cornell senior, said, "I definitely wash my hands more often and try to get more rest than usual to help my immunity more. I still go to class. My regular daily routine, I don't think it changed that much."
Angelica Geter, a graduate student at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, noted that people get tense when a classmate coughs nearby. "Everyone says, 'Are you feeling OK? Have you been to the doctor?'"
Emory formed a voluntary isolation unit for students who become ill. Since the unit opened, 131 students have checked into the dorm, and as of last Friday, all had checked out, according to a university spokeswoman.
Earlier this month, Dan Tapiero, an Emory sophomore, was kicked out by his three roommates when he got sick. "They were polite about it," he said.
He stayed at the isolation unit for four days doing homework, surfing the Web and catching up with classes. Having the H1N1 flu wasn't terrible despite the forced exile, he said.
"It's like the regular flu. You feel sick for one or two days," Tapiero said. "I felt like the media was using scare tactics about the swine flu."
The difficulty for schools is letting students know about H1N1 risks without spreading panic, said James Tinney, director of media relations at Washington State University. "I think students have gotten the message. A lot of the students interviewed by the media outlets, their message back has been 'This is over-hyped. It's not that big of a deal.'"
Earlier this month, the university had more than 2,600 possible flu cases surface. By Monday, WSU's flu blog reported that health services were in contact with 32 students with flu-like illness.
Officials at Stillman College in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, canceled its first home football game because several players had flu-like symptoms. After that forfeit, the team played the next two games.
But for most universities, events and classes have continued uneventfully.
"National, state and local health officials have told us there is no reason to cancel events at Cornell," Claudia Wheatley, director of the Cornell press relations office, wrote in an email. "The vast majority of our students are very healthy and anxious to enjoy our traditional fall activities, like football games and so on." For two weeks, the school's InterFraternity Council canceled large social events out of health concerns.
"Too often, as college students, we think we're invincible," said Cornell senior Eddie Rooker, president of the InterFraternity Council. "I think people are understanding how serious their health is and how their actions can affect their peers."

Do we have to believe in science?
Are we bound to believe in something if we want to have any chance to practice science? What is the relation of science to reality? Does experience not guarantee the objectivity of science? Science and faith are opposed concepts, aren't they? Does science remain rational if it is thought of as closely linked to beliefs? Surprising answers inspired by the philosophy of science of Michael Polanyi.

Dr. Gonzalo Munevar
Venus and the End of the World
An interesting hypothesis about Venus that connects life with plate tectonics is supported by the large ratio of deuterium to hydrogen in Venus' atmosphere. But this evidence has been challenged by a probabilistic argument analogous to John Leslie's paradoxical argument, itself based on the Anthropic Principle, to the effect that the growth of the human population makes it highly probable that the end of humanity is near. I argue that Leslie's view of probability is wrong and that the challenge to the evidence from Venus is also wrong.

Display Energy Certificates In Derby
Do you require a Display Energy Certifcate DEC in Derby?
Are you a public body or tennant of a public building that needs a DEC (Display Energy Certificate)
BEST Compliance are experts in Display Energy Certifcates and have undertaken in excess of 1000 DECs, from libraries to University buildings.
BEST Compliance undetakes much of its work in Derby and have a vast specialist knowledge on the buildings in and around Derby.
What are DECs and why do I need One.
Reducing the energy consumption of our existing building stock is crucial to significantly reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions, which are contributing to climate change. The European Performance of Buildings Directive was adopted in 2003 to help tackle this issue, setting standards for minimum energy performance for new and existing buildings.
DECs are intended to raise public awareness of energy consumption and therefore lead by example in encouraging energy efficiency improvements. A DEC shows a building's operational energy rating on a scale from 1 - 200 which is split into equal bands from A to G, with A being the best. D is the UK average equating to a score of 100.
Compulsory for public authority buildings with a floor area over 250 m2 (such as many libraries, schools and council offices) a DEC can also offer a range of benefits to businesses. A DEC is valid for a year and must be updated annually. The previous two years rating is also shown on the DEC to highlight what progress has been made. The DEC must be clearly displayed, no smaller than A3 in size, in a prominent place where the public can see it. The DEC is accompanied by an Advisory Report, which contains recommendations for improving the energy performance of the building, including quick win energy management measures to longer term investments which may payback over 10 years. The report itself is valid for 7 years, whereas the DEC is valid for 12 months, if larger than 1000m2 however buildings 250m2 to 999m2 the DEC is valid for 10 Years.
How does this differ from an Energy Performance Certificate (EPCs)?
The provision for Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) was also created under the European Performance of Buildings Directive. EPCs have been required since October 2008 for all buildings when they are sold, leased or built. They differ slightly from DECs as they are based on the predicted performance of the building based on its building fabric and fixed services, i.e. level of insulation, number of light fittings and heating system. An EPC makes basic assumptions for how the building will be used. It does not, however, factor in the level of electrical equipment usage or the potentially extended heating hours that an individual building occupier could implement.
Responsibilities for displaying a DEC
Under this legislation it is the responsibility of every occupier of a building affected by these regulations to:
• Display a valid DEC in a prominent place clearly visible to the public at all times in A3 size
• Have in their possession or control a valid advisory report which conveys recommendations to improve the building's energy performance.
This must be done for each of the buildings affected
What Information is required to Produce a DEC
The occupier, in collaboration with the energy assessor, will need to obtain actual meter readings or consignment notes for all fuels used in the buildings that are affected by this legislation. This may include gas fuels, oil fuels, solid fuels, district heating and cooling, grid electricity and electricity generated on site or obtained by private distribution systems from other sites.
For district heating and cooling and electricity generated on site, or obtained by private distribution systems from other sites, the average carbon factor for the fuel over the accounting period will need to be obtained e.g. in kg of carbon dioxide per kWh delivered.
You can obtain the information required to produce a DEC from a number of sources:
• on-site energy meters;
• the building landlord or representative;
• the utility supplier;
• the district heating/cooling provider.
The calculation of the operational rating is based on annual energy consumption, which means the energy consumed over the period of one calendar year (365 days). Ideally all energies are metered over the same one-year period.
Who Pays for DECs
The 'occupier' of a school is the Local Authority where the school is either a community, voluntary controlled or community special school; and otherwise the governing body (section 78 of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998). However under local management of schools, the costs falling to the school, for all of which the authority is formally responsible as maintainer, are generally to be met from the school's delegated budget share (sections 45 to 51 of the SSFA 1998). LAs may provide a buy-back service for their schools to carry out the DEC assessments and reports. Alternatively schools can commission their own accredited assessors to carry out the work.
Penalties for not having a DECs
A local authority can issue a penalty charge notice of £500 for failing to display a DEC at all times in a prominent place clearly visible to the public, and £1,000 for failing to possess or have in their control a valid advisory report. In addition to these penalties, it will still be necessary to commission the documents, otherwise further offences will be committed.
If you can demonstrate that you have taken all reasonable steps to avoid breaching the regulations, then the penalty charge notice must be withdrawn.
If you believe the penalty charge notice should not have been given you can request a review. If you are not satisfied with the outcome of the review you may appeal to the county court within 28 days after you received notice confirming the penalty charge notice.
