Huskers Host Bears for Doubleheader
Nebraska (2-7, 0-0 Big Ten) vs. Northern Colorado (3-4, 0-0 Great West)
Wednesday, March 6 - 12:05 p.m. (CT)
Game 1
LHP Aaron Bummer (0-0) vs. RHP Eian Raeber (0-0)
Game 2
TBA vs. TBA
This Week: Following a two-game sweep of the New Mexico Lobos at Hawks Field this past weekend, the Nebraska baseball team (2-7, 0-0 Big Ten) continues its homestand on Wednesday afternoon when it hosts the Northern Colorado Bears (3-4, 0-0 Great West) for a doubleheader starting at 12:05 p.m. The Huskers and Bears were set to play a two-game series starting on Tuesday, but impending weather forced the teams to postpone Tuesday's game and play a doubleheader on Wednesday.
There will be no TV coverage on Wednesday, but all both games will be streamed live on HuskersNSide, subscription required.
Nebraska holds a 36-5 advantage in the all-time series with the Bears, with the first meeting coming in 1986. After Nebraska swept a two-game home series in 1986, the Huskers traveled to Greeley for a four-game series in 1987, where the Bears won the series opener. Nebraska went on to take the next three games. The Bears first ever win in Lincoln came during the 1991 season, when they won 4-2 on March 9. The two teams split a two-game series at Hawks Field last season, with Nebraska winning game one, 12-3, and Northern Colorado responding with a win in game two, 6-4.
On the Radio: Fans across Nebraska and around the world can listen Greg Sharpe and Lane Grindle call all of the action on the Husker Sports Network - including KLIN 1400 AM and 94.5 FM in Lincoln - and on the Internet at Huskers.com or the Official Husker App. A complete list of HSN affiliates can be found on page 10.
TV: There is no television coverage of either game on Wednesday.
Web Stream: All three games this weekend will be streamed live on HuskersNSide, subscription is required. Information about HuskersNSide can be found by looking under the "Multimedia" tab at the top of Huskers.com. Subscriptions vary from $12.95 for one month to $54.95 for a one-year subscription.
Going for 2,000
The Nebraska baseball team is eight wins away from notching the 2,000th win in program history.
Dating back to the team's first season in 1889 when the team went 1-2, the Huskers entered the season ranked 45th all-time in the NCAA record books in wins.
Entering 2013, only 44 programs in NCAA history had won more than 2,000 games, while only two programs had posted 3,000 or more wins. Fordham entered the season ranked first all-time with 4,320 wins and Texas was second with 3,276 wins.
Home Sweet Hawks
The Nebraska baseball program is celebrating its 12th year at Hawks Field in 2012. The Huskers are 251-88-1 (.740) since opening the park on March 5, 2002 with a 23-1 win over Nebraska-Kearney.
After playing 31 homes games in 2012, the Huskers are set to host 20 games at Hawks Field in 2013, while playing 31 true roads games and two neutral site games at the TD Ameritrade Classic in late April.
Home Winning Streak
With a 8-5 comeback win over New Mexico on Saturday, March 2, the Huskers have won their last 35 home openers dating back to the 1979 season. Nebraska is 12-0 all-time in home openers at Hawks Field.
DeLeon Delivers
Junior Christian DeLeon has been a welcome addition to the Husker pitching staff in 2013.
Projected to be a long-relief arm and a spot starter, DeLeon was throw into the weekend rotation to start the season and has been arguably the Huskers' top starter.
After holding USC to one run in his first career start on Feb. 17, the Richmond, Texas, native threw 6.0 innings against the Texas Longhorns in Austin on Feb. 23, striking out seven.
He then got even better in his first start at Hawks Field on March 3 against New Mexico, throwing 8.0 shutout innings against the Lobos to earn his first career win.
DeLeon holds a 1.45 ERA on the year and leads the team with 13 strikeouts, while issuing five walks.
Sophomore Slump, Not so Far
After producing one of the top freshman season in recent memory at Nebraska, Pat Kelly, has started his sophomore season on the right foot through nine games.
Kelly is hitting a team-high .394 (13-for-33) on the year, with three doubles.
He is the only Husker on the squad to produce a hit in all nine games this season and is three games away from tying his career-high 12 game hitting streak from last season.
Kelly also leads the squad with an on-base percentage of .474. Only one other Huskers, Chad Christensen at .421, has an on-base percentage over .400..
Hits in Bunches
Senior Chad Christensen has been tough on opposing pitchers this season, as the NU left fielder leads the team with five multi-hit games.
Christensen has produced three hits three times this season.
Pat Kelly is the only other Husker with more than one multi-hit game on the year, as he has produced a pair of hits in four games.
Take it for the Team
Senior infielder Bryan Peters entered the 2013 season ranked fourth on Nebraska's career list 43 HBP.
Peters should easily move to the No. 3 spot in 2013, and possibly have a chance at moving to the No. 2 spot on the all-time list.
Kash Kalkowski recently moved to ninth on the all-time list with 30 career HBP, as he has been hit a team-high four times this season.
DJ Belfonte (2007-10) sits second on the career list with 59 HBP and Daniel Bruce (2002-05) holds the NU career record with 67 HBP.
2013 Husker TV Schedule
The Huskers are slated to make four nationally-televised appearances on BTN, with another nine games streamed live on BTN.com (subscription required).
Four of the BTN.com streams will also be shown live across the state of Nebraska on NET.
Overall, all 21 Husker home games will be either on TV or streamed on the internet, as HuskersNSide will stream 14 games that weren't picked up by BTN or BTN.com.

Knock Out Blow
Producing big innings was a staple of Nebraska's offense a year ago, but through the first seven games of the year, the Huskers had scored more than two runs in an innings just once, when they plated three runs in the sixth inning at USC.
That all changed on Saturday, March 2 when the Huskers plated seven runs in the bottom of the sixth to turn a 0-5 hole into a 7-5 lead. Nebraska went on to win the game, 8-5, its first win of the 2013 season.
The Huskers batted around for the first time all season that inning, sending 12 hitters to the plate.

SAN RAMON — A man was arrested on suspicion of kidnapping, domestic battery and illegal use of a firearm on Saturday after police say he held his child's mother against her will and pistol-whipped her outside a motel.
Officers were called just before 7:30 a.m. to 18000 San Ramon Valley Blvd. for a report of a man with a gun and a possible kidnapping that was in progress at the Extended Stay America, said Sgt. Pat Cerruti.
When officers arrived, the victim — an 18-year-old Sacramento resident — told police that she agreed to go for a ride with her ex-boyfriend who she had a child with. A preliminary investigation revealed that while the two were in the vehicle, the victim's ex-boyfriend, Daniel Richard Medina, 24, pulled out a handgun and held her against her will, Cerruti said.
The victim convinced Medina to drive back to the Extended Stay America, where the victim attempted to get help from office staff. Police said Medina barged in, dragged the victim out by her hair and then pistol-whipped her. When two witnesses attempted to intervene the suspect pulled a firearm on both men, police said.
Officers arrived on scene, they arrested Medina and the victim was released. She declined medical attention, police said.
The gun was recovered in the suspect's vehicle. Medina was booked into the County Jail.

South African price changes and inflation since 1974: A note on the testing of inflation accuracy1
Jannie RossouwI; Vishnu PadayacheeII
ISA Reserve Bank and Department of Economics, University of Pretoria
IISchool of Development Studies, University of KwaZulu-Natal
As inflation credibility in South Africa records low readings when measured in terms of inflation credibility barometers, this note aims at assessing whether actual price movements provide any grounds for low inflation credibility. It compares the price movements of similar items with the rate of inflation over a period of 32 years, i.e. from 1974 to 2006, and discusses the use of an inflation accuracy indicator to compare estimated price levels adjusted by the rate of inflation and actual price levels. Over the period of comparison no systematic over- or under-reporting of changes in prices in terms of the rate of inflation could be detected and the analysis suggests that little or no basis can be found to justify low inflation credibility. Inflation credibility is more likely than not influenced by the most recent purchasing experiences of consumers. Doubts concerning the accuracy of inflation figures could nevertheless result in the general public concluding that monetary policy aiming at the achievement of an inflation target brings only the pain of high interest rates without the tangible benefits of lower inflation, thereby jeopardising the usefulness of an inflation-targeting monetary policy framework.JEL: E31

Pam Hendrickson
Tennis And Basketball Hall Of Fame Citation
Pam Hendrickson has the singular distinction of having played on the first Washington College women's tennis team to qualify for the NCAA Division III National Team Championship Tournament and the first-ever Washington College varsity women's basketball team. Pam's story is not one simply of participation, however, but of significant personal achievement.
Pam was a standout tennis player in an era of excellence for the Shorewomen. Hendrickson qualified for the NCAA Division III Individual Championships all four years, earning All-America honors in doubles in 1991. She won a singles championship in the Middle Atlantic Conference and a doubles crown in the Centennial Conference, and was named the 1994 Centennial Conference Player of the Year, earning All-Centennial Conference first-team honors for singles. She was also a three-time team Most Valuable Player and was an Academic All-American in 1993 and 1994. She played No. 1 singles as a junior and senior.
As a freshman at WC, Pam was a member of the first women's team to win a conference championship in any sport as the Shorewomen went 16-2, won the Middle Atlantic Conference Championship, and finished the season ranked 13th in all of Division III. The following year, the Shorewomen made their first—and thus far, only—appearance in the NCAA Division III Team Tournament and finished the year ranked 12th in the nation.
Pam was an active member of the women's basketball team when it began as a club sport, and served as a team captain during her senior year in the Shorewomen's first varsity season. She started 22 games and was among the team's leaders in assists in steals as the Shorewomen recorded a respectable 11 wins in their inaugural campaign. She was recognized with the team's Hustle and Spirit and Best Defensive Player awards.
Off the courts, Pam was a member of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority and was elected as Panhellenic Treasurer and Social Chairperson. She received departmental honors and thesis honors at graduation.
Pam went on the receive a master's of education in secondary school counseling from Kutztown University, earning that degree with a 4.0 grade-point average. She is currently pursuing her Administration I Certification at McDaniel College and is the Guidance Department Chairperson at Century High School in Sykesville, Md. She is also the girls' varsity tennis coach at Century. She was elected to the Alpha Epsilon Lamda National Honor Society in 1996 and the Kutztown High School Hall of Fame in 2003.
Washington College considers it an honor and privilege to induct Pam Hendrickson into its Athletic Hall of Fame on this fourth day of October, 2008.

Most of us, day after day and week after week, find ourselves so bogged down with the daily routine of life, that we never really seem to have time to spend on the projects that mean the most to us. As the days go by, we end up getting further and further from our goals, often settling for much less than we had originally hoped for.
How many times in your life did you tell yourself... "Someday I will do this or Someday I will do that." But that someday has never come. Whether it's poor economic conditions or bad timing or inadequate financing or whatever the reason might be.

What can Laos teach us about organizational learning?
It is easy to see that data is crucial to the agency's operations. Sitting down with EDL's employees and managers—all wearing the agency's signature blue-shirt uniform with pride—it also becomes apparent that the science of numbers and the art of managing people have gone hand in hand at this agency. This combination has enabled EDL to make organizational learning a central pillar of the agency's success.
Institutions Taking Root, a recent report of which I'm a co-author, looked at nine successful institutions in fragile and conflict-affected states that share a core set of internal operational strategies.

Photo of Duluth's Enger Tower Lit Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Incites Scathing Reddit Comment and Criticism of the Cause
As most people are well aware, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This year, Duluth's Enger Tower joined in a long list of businesses and organizations that use pink to show support and interest in the cause. A Redditor captured a photo of the tower donned in pink, and shared it in the Minnesota SubReddit, drawing some very critical comments.
Beside a handful of childish breast jokes, a few unsupportive messages were given by commenters on the post, including this very critical comment about Breast Cancer Awareness in general:
A different individual pointed to other common forms of cancer and deadly disease, suggesting the only reason such a big deal is made of the cause is because breast cancer is "sexier" than things like heart disease or prostate cancer.
Another commenter offered more constructive criticism, suggesting that the campaign has done a great job of making people very aware of the cause, but has done very little to further the movement beyond creating a surface-level awareness.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month is by far the most commercialized of any organized causes of this nature. Along with a lot of product and merchandise-based fundraising, very visual displays for the cause are made by companies and organizations like the NFL incorporating pink in uniforms for the month. Some argue there is nothing wrong with companies picking a cause and supporting it, while others suggest it is unfair, inappropriate, or greedy.
People are certainly entitled to have varied opinions on subjects, and obviously the world of Reddit (like most other comment-based internet forums) is full of people that say ridiculous things; but do you think any of these comments are warranted? Do you agree or disagree with anything being said? Leave your thoughts in the comments section below.

scrollIntoView has difference behaviors between Firefox and Chrome. Firefox looks good but for Chrome, sometimes it not just move the item to the view it also move the whole page up a little bit. If you have top menu on the page, it will be cut in half. Im using scrollIntoView in a container which set autoScroll to true. ScrollIntoView suppose only scrolls the contants in the container to the view but problem is that the contant is already in the view it still be moved up again and the whole page is also moved up a little bit. This is only for Chrome, Firefox is working fine. Any suggestions? Thanks. Larry

Motherboard manufacturers began enabling overclocking features in the system BIOS rather than the tedious process of manual jumper or dipswitch settings. Combine this ease of use with the tremendous overhead available in many of today's modern processors, along with the ever-present lure of getting something for little or nothing, and it's easy to see why overclocking has become such a popular pastime.

For the first time, I went to see the finish of the Boston Marathon. The best part? The handcycles. This is what my Dud does... I just had to call him and tell him when the first few went by. The handcycles and wheelchair were very spaced out and were the first finishers, so the crowd went nuts every time anyone came into view.
On the phone my Dud let me know that he just filled out his entry forms for a 25K he'll do with his handcycle. Wow.
I did this on the sidelines:
I have an excuse, however... I twisted an ankle pretty badly walking from Rondo's Diner back to work last Friday with a bag of cheeseburgers. We wrapped it up and did a serious bike ride in the Nashoba Valley on Saturday, but I've been taking it easy since then in anticipation of my trip to NYC this weekend with Mom and Little Sister for a binge of shopping and eating and walking around. I have a very, very hard time being still. It took remarkable willpower to not go to the gym today.
Knitting? Of course, it's almost Mother's Day, so it's socks. I've chosen my yarns from my stash based on Project Spectrum this year.
First, some self-striping Lovesticks in After Dinner Mint:
And some completed ones in Sport Weight Yarntini, color Chocolatini, with contrasting toes from some leftover Spunky Eclectic Super Sport.
New sweater design and blocked lace to come!

Yen Yuan-shu (顏元叔), a highly respected professor of English and one of the leading figures of institutional reform for foreign literature studies in the 1970s, has died, National Taiwan University confirmed on Wednesday.
The university said a public memorial service for Yen would be held on Jan. 27.
Yen was a long-time faculty member at the university's department of foreign languages and literature, and was the dean of the department for five-and-a-half years.
Yen was born in Nanjing, China, in 1933, and his family relocated to Taiwan following the communist victory in the Chinese Civil War in 1949.
Yen graduated from the university's department of foreign languages in 1956 and went to the US, where he obtained his doctorate in English and American Literature at the University of Wisconsin. He returned to National Taiwan University to take up a faculty position and started teaching in 1963.
Said to be the first academic with an overseas doctorate in English and American literature to return to teach in Taiwan, Yen brought home many new Western ideas and concepts in language studies and literary criticism.
When he was the dean of the department, starting in 1969, Yen initiated major institutional reforms and changed the approach to studies of English and American literature in Taiwan. He also established the country's first doctoral course in comparative literature.
Leung Yan-wing (梁欣榮), the current dean of the department, said that Yen, whom he had studied under, was a highly respected professor whose reforms changed the teaching and course content of the nation's foreign language studies.
"The reform consolidated the university's position as the leader for English and American literature education in Taiwan. It also directly influenced studies of foreign languages in Tamkang University and other schools," Leung said.
He said Yen was not only an educator, but also a prolific essayist and a renowned literary critic.
Yen was seen as the leading figure in literary criticism of English and American literature in Taiwan, founding two academic journals, Tamkang Review (淡江評論) in 1970 and Chung Wai Literary Quarterly (中外文學) in 1972, along with a magazine that guided students on reading English-language newspapers and magazines.
Yen was a familiar name even outside English and American literature studies circles.
Many students and readers of English texts in Taiwan have used dictionaries and books edited or written by Yen, including A Dictionary of Western Literature (西洋文學辭典), A Dictionary of English Usage (英文字彙用法字典) and Selected English Readings (英文閱讀精選), among others.
"When Yen was dean of the department, it was the custom for the dean leaving the post for promotion to become chairman of the faculty. However, Yen was the first exception," Leung said.
Yen wrote an article criticizing the government at the time over its treatment of retired military personnel, and he also spoke up for some politically persecuted individuals, so Yen lost the faculty chairman position, Leung said.
"This showed his character," Leung said. "He was not afraid to express views that were not in line with the political leaders, and he was not willing to compromise his principles to hold on to a high position."
After retiring from National Taiwan University, Yen went to China and purchased land to build a house in his family's ancestral homeland. From there, he divided his time between Taiwan and China.

Big Smoke (mission)
|Big Smoke
Carl Johnson recalling a childhood memory and hears Kendl's voice in his head.
|GTA San Andreas
|Big Smoke
|Ganton, Los Santos
|Sweet & Kendl
|Unlocked by
|First Mission
Big Smoke is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas given to protagonist Carl Johnson by Big Smoke from the Johnson House on Grove Street in Ganton, Los Santos.
Carl Johnson, after arriving in Grove Street on a bicycle, enters his childhood home and finds a picture of his recently deceased mother Beverly. He takes a chair and sits down, remembering a time when his sister Kendl threatened to tell Beverly of Carl's antics. Big Smoke, a long time friend of the Johnson family, enters the living room from the kitchen with a baseball bat and thinking Carl is a burglar, threatens to attack him. Carl reminds Smoke of who he is and the two embrace. Carl and Smoke talk about Beverly's death and that Carl wants revenge before leaving the house and driving to the cemetery at Market in Smoke's Perennial.
(Carl enters the Johnson house and picks up a picture lying on the floor.)
Voices in Carl Johnson's head: Stop it! What are you doing? Carl, Brian, stop it! - Quit it! Moms will hear! - Mom, they're up to something!
(Carl is sitting and looking at the picture he picked up, when Big Smoke enters the room with a baseball bat in his hand)
Big Smoke: You picked the wrong house, fool!
Carl Johnson: Hey, hey! Big Smoke, it's me, Carl! Chill! Chill!
(Big Smoke drops the bat.)
Big Smoke: CJ? Oh, my dog! Wassup? Hey baby, you okay, man?
Carl Johnson: No, man, it's my Moms, homie...
Big Smoke: Hey, I don't know why this had to happen, but I promise you, I'm going to find out who killed your moms. The streets is cold, dog. Like it says in the book, we are blessed and cursed.
Carl Johnson: What fucking book?
Big Smoke: Same things make us laugh, make us cry. But right now, we gotta take care our business. Go see your brother at the cemetery. C'mon, let's bounce.
(Big Smoke and Carl exit the house and walk out to Big Smoke's car.)
Big Smoke: You wanna drive?
Carl Johnson: Yeah, that's cool. Nice car, Smoke.
Big Smoke: You know me. It's not cut. Keep the value in it. Keep it real.
There is no monetary reward for completing the mission and the mission Sweet & Kendl is unlocked automatically after the end of Big Smoke.
Carl Johnson picks up a picture of his mother and looks at it sadly.
Big Smoke thinks CJ is an intruder and advances on him with a baseball bat.

Deadly flooding in Boulder, Colo., was due to the chance collision of meteorology, geography and urban development, according to weather and climate experts.
As a fleet of U.S. military helicopters conducted search and rescue efforts Monday, more than 1,200 people remained unaccounted for following a week of intense rain and flash floods. At least seven people were reported killed in the extreme weather.
Hardest hit was the city of Boulder, which sits at the mouth of Boulder Canyon, a powerful funnel for rains pouring into the steep Front Range, where years of drought have given way to dense, hard-packed soil. The canyon watershed leads to Boulder Creek, a waterway that bisects the city of almost 100,000 people.
Boulder has been subject to rapid rain runoff in the past, and emergency officials have long known that much of the central city area along Boulder Creek would be at high risk in the face of a storm so powerful that it occurred only once every 100 years.
Just such a storm began taking shape early last week, when a mass of wet monsoonal air flowed north from Mexico and found itself trapped over the Boulder region by a high-pressure weather system in central Canada and the upper Great Plains of the United States.
Between Sept 9 and Sept. 13, 14.6 inches of rain poured into Boulder, with even greater precipitation occurring in the mountains to the west. On average, Boulder experiences 1.6 inches of rainfall during the month of September.
"They had 10 times their average rainfall in just four days," said Bill Patzert, a climatologist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Canada Flintridge.
Though about a decade of drought has diminished vegetation that might otherwise work to slow rain runoff, urban development has also created areas where rainfall moves rapidly across populated areas.
"Of course, over the years, Boulder has grown and grown and like most cities, the more it grows, the worse the runoff gets," Patzert said. "That's because there's more parking lots, more driveways, more roads, etc."
Fortunately, conditions were easing up after the weekend.
"What's happening this week is dry air from the west is kind of winning the battle. It's pushing this compressed zone of moisture further to the east," said Alex Sosnowski, expert senior meteorologist with the AccuWeather forecasting service.
"We're still going to have some spotty thunderstorm activity in the next few days over Colorado, and that in turn will produce some isolated incidents of flash flooding, but in general I think streams and rivers will tend to recede."
Asked whether the extreme weather was the result of climate change, Patzert said it was impossible to say, but that he seriously doubted it.
"I think this is a matter of their founding fathers building in a precarious location and some intense meteorology," Patzert said.

Jimmy Butler gives out cell phone number at Timberwolves introductory news conference
Jimmy Butler won't be afraid of the critics this season. Have a problem with him or his team? Take it up with the newest member of the Minnesota Timberwolves. Give him a quick call and discuss it yourself.
Yes, you read that right. The three-time All Star gave away his phone number at his introductory news conference in Minnesota.
His number? 773-899-6071.
Butler's voicemail greeting even encourages those with "any beef" to "definitely leave a message." (Butler's inbox is currently full.)
this is the voicemail you get when you call the number jimmy butler gave out at his press conference pic.twitter.com/2pXIBQbRfS
— Joon Lee (@iamjoonlee) June 29, 2017
Butler landed in Minnesota via a draft-night trade with the Chicago Bulls. The trade sent Kris Dunn, Zach LaVine and the seventh overall pick (Lauri Markkanen) to the Windy City in exchange for Butler and the 16th pick (Justin Patton). Butler's relationship with the Bulls and its much-maligned front office had clearly soured. Now he's reunited with former coach Tom Thibodeau and, apparently, all ears for your hate, your criticism and your comments.
There are high expectations for the Wolves with Butler in tow. The team has an exciting young core with 21-year-old big man Karl Anthony-Towns and 22-year-old high flyer Andrew Wiggins. Butler, 27, is just entering his prime after setting career highs in points, rebounds and assists last season. A versatile scorer and excellent defender, Butler gives Minnesota the "Big Three" that every team trying to contend for championships seems to be chasing.
And, well, if the Timberwolves aren't reaching the heights expected of them, you know who to talk to.
UPDATE: Per his Instagram, Butler is serious about this (at least so far):
taking all calls and y'all thought it was a game!

The Dell All-in-One
Reviewers, at times, can be somewhat myopic. I speak for myself in this particular instance. My job as a writer is to test hardware on a daily basis, and as such I have a very keen understanding (or so I hope) of the intricacies of computer design. If I need to build a machine, whether for test purposes or something that my wife can play Song Pop on, I have a near infinite variety of components that I can choose from to fit the needs of the project. As such, we often forget that not everyone has that level of expertise. Most people, in fact, just want to be able to buy something that not only fits their needs, but also simply just has to work.
Dog is unimpressed with packaging. UPS complained profusely though.
This is the reason why we have the Dells, HPs, and Lenovos of the world. The vast majority of people out there are unwilling to build their own machine and support it themselves. They neither have the time nor patience to dive in and learn the ins and outs of a modern PC and the software that runs them. This is not a bad thing. Just as I do not have the patience to learn how to sew, I still like wearing clothes. At least during our podcasts. For the most part.
We must also admit that we are moving well away from the typical beige box that dominated the 90s and early 2000s. Manufacturers have a much better eye for not only functionality, but also aesthetics. No longer do we have the hulking CRTs of yesteryear, and neither do we have the large boxes that are nearly indistinguishable from one or another. Multiple form factors abound and these large manufacturers have design teams that pay very close attention to things like compatibility, power consumption, and thermal dissipation. With these things in mind, they are able to create unique devices that not just serve the needs of consumers, but also just simply work.
Apple has been at the forefront of this type of design for quite some time. This is a company that has prized fit, finish, and functionality far more than they have pursued cost cutting and homogenization. This has lead to much higher margins for the company, and a nearly rabid following by the people buying their platforms. We certainly can argue that they probably perfected the "all-in-one" machine back in the Macintosh days, and since that time they have not stood still. The iMac was a further advancement in that field, but the introduction of relatively inexpensive and large LCD panels allowed them to further shrink the all-in-one. It also allowed them to further sculpt the design into what we see today.
Everything is nicely supported in the box.
Obviously people around the industry have noticed this trend, and noticed the devoted following of the Apple consumers. It is hard to miss. The world is a big place though, and surely there are people who crave the type of design that Apple pushes, but do not necessarily want to jump on that particular bandwagon. Dell has recognized this and created their XPS One lineup of products. Not everyone wants to run OSX and pay the Apple tax. If this is the case for a reader, then this might be the product that catches their attention.

Dana and Ray Brandon
Ray's Take Hopefully you have a financial plan to guide you to your goals, whether they are college for the kids, a vacation home or a secure retirement. However, one of the key indicators as to whether you will be able to achieve those goals is your ability to avoid distractions from your plan.
Financial distractions take all forms, from the excitement of market spurts and the dismay when things go south to changes in your employment, health, or family circumstances. You may also be distracted by hot investment tips or get-rich-quick short cuts. It's hard not to be, but your ability to focus can be the difference between success and failure.
Financial planning is about taking a steady, disciplined approach to your regular budget and investing efforts. It's about looking toward the horizon to reach your goals by sticking with your plan and filtering out the day-to-day noise along the path. Sure, you may need to make some alterations along the way, as your family, job and goals evolve. Calmly re-evaluating your situation on a regular basis is an important part of planning your financial future.
However, there's a big difference between regular reappraisals and knee-jerk reactions to market reports, China's G.D.P., the price of oil and other short-term variations. Look at the performance of your portfolio and each of its allocations over five or 10 years instead of day to day or month to month. This gives you a clearer indicator of where you stand.
If you can avoid reacting to the many distractions that come into your life, and stick with a steady, reasonable financial plan, you're well down the road to success. After decades as a financial planner, it's the clearest indicator I've seen for the difference between an individual achieving his or her financial goals and churning with the times to little effect.
Dana's Take I am terrible about multitasking and ending up with half-finished projects all over the house – not very productive. It's so hard to stay with just one task at a time. The same holds true for investing – it can be boring and frustrating to stick with your financial plan. The payoff, however, is pretty wonderful.
Borrowing money is a red flag that you may be straying from your financial plan. Even if it's rationalized as an "investment," taking a loan from a bank or 401(k) can set you back years from your goal.
There are no shortcuts to financial security. Like the tortoise and the hare – slow and steady wins the race. Ignore get-rich-quick shortcuts. Like the tortoise, plod along the road to financial security.
It's a challenge to remain focused, but if you stay on track with your financial plan you're on your way to "No worries, mate."

MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury selectmen last week got their first glimpse of a proposed 2007-2008 capital improvement budget of $781,000, which was approximately $9,000 less than what voters approved for the current fiscal year.
The budget reflects, among other things, $250,000 for "special road projects" that may include repairs to Quarry and/or Shard Villa roads; $120,000 in paving work for Forest Ridge, North Branch Road and Seymour Street Extension; $80,000 to improve gravel roads throughout town; $50,000 in improvements to Schoolhouse Hill Road; $50,000 in sidewalk repairs; $6,000 to resurface the municipal tennis courts; $15,000 for computer-related upgrades for the police department; and $24,000 to bring more energy efficient lighting to the municipal building.
In the big scheme of things, Vermont Electric Power Company's project to string up a new set of 345Kv transmission lines through Addison County could have been delayed another year or two without (in all likelihood) depriving consumers of an adequate supply of power. It certainly seems reasonable, therefore, to ask VELCO to work around a Middlebury Christmas tree farm during the farm's peak season between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
To proceed with the erection of gigantic poles within the next two or three weeks, when it means that the poles would be placed right in the midst of the Werner tree farm (see story Page 1), seems like a slap in the face to a fellow Vermont business. It's almost an affront that VELCO wouldn't have foreseen the dilemma earlier and made the overture to avoid work there for this one five-week period.
When a single person is able to use the Act 250 process to delay a project for up to two years for reasons that have been dismissed by all others, the state needs to amend the law.
The instance at hand is with the proposed Eastview housing project — a 101-unit retirement community to be built on 30 acres south of Porter Medical Center campus off South Street in Middlebury. Opposed is South Street Extension resident Miriam Roemischer. She has been the proverbial thorn-in-the-side of those who have pushed the project forward. That's a shame.
While other community members, including many along South Street, raised initial concerns about the project — including the fact that traffic would increase and they wanted to be sure traffic-calming measures were in place — their concerns apparently have been satisfied and the public good of the project (not to mention the appropriate zoning) has outweighed their own personal preferences for a quieter street.
As Gov. James Douglas addresses the task of replacing Secretary of Agriculture Steve Kerr the future of farmers throughout the state may hang in the balance. It's not that one person will make or break the farm community, but that the direction state policy proceeds during the next few years could either set the path for new growth on Vermont farms or continue the rapid demise of dairy farms Vermont has seen for the past 50 years.
The demise, as most everyone knows, has cut the number of farms in the state by a third in the past decade — from 2,265 in 1993 to 1,459 in 2003. It's not a new trend. The number of dairy farms in Vermont in 1983 was 3,216; in 1973 it was 3,852; in 1963, there were 7,127, and in 1953, there were 10,637. On average about 8 percent to 10 percent of our dairy farms have been going out of business each year.
MONTPELIER — Sen. Claire Ayer, D-Weybridge, will be wielding greater influence in the Vermont Legislature when the new term opens in January. Ayer, who this month won a third term in the upper house of the Legislature, was unanimously elected majority whip of the state Senate during a Democratic caucus in Montpelier on Monday.
"I see this as a lot more work, but also a great learning experience," said Ayer, who along with Sen. Harold Giard, D-Bridport, ran unopposed for re-election on Nov. 7.
"I expect to be involved in lots of different kinds of legislation," she added.
As majority whip — also referred to as "assistant majority leader" — Ayer's responsibilities will include:

MIDDLEBURY — Maxamed Ibrahim has two families on two continents — one in Somalia, where he lost his mother, father and three sisters to famine and civil war 11 years ago, and another in Hinesburg, where he moved at the age of seven with his adopted mother, Dorothy Delaney. The humanitarian aid worker had found Ibrahim wrapped in an old blanket in the corner of a feeding center in Africa, unresponsive and ill with tuberculosis.
Now a senior at the Gailer School, 18-year-old Ibrahim will speak at the Middlebury school's open house on Thursday, Dec. 7, about his journey back to Africa last summer, where he met his only surviving natural relative, his uncle. It became clear after this meeting that he belonged to two cultures and two homes.
MIDDLEBURY — School directors and educators in the Addison Central Supervisory Union's (ACSU) six rural schools have ratified a new, four-year contract that will maintain current health insurance benefits and ultimately raise teachers' base salaries to be on par with their colleagues at Middlebury's Mary Hogan Elementary School.
The new pact comes after more than a year of negotiations between ACSU school directors and negotiators representing the teachers union, called the Addison Central Elementary Association. The contract will apply to the approximately 60 teachers who work at the elementary schools in Bridport, Cornwall, Weybridge, Ripton, Salisbury and Shoreham.
The teachers' previous contract had expired in June of 2005. They spent the past school year (2005-2006) working under the terms of that expired pact.
MIDDLEBURY — David and Cheryl Werner last week looked nervously upon the Vermont Electric Power Co. (VELCO) equipment that has mobilized off Painter Road, right across from their Middlebury tree farm.
They know it's only a matter of time before that equipment springs into action, erecting a new set of transmission lines in the VELCO right-of-way that runs through their 10.4-acre property.
The Werners are desperately hoping the VELCO equipment fires up later, rather than sooner. That's because major construction on the Werner property within the next five weeks could dramatically take the wind out of the couple's Christmas tree sales.
"We just opened today, and we've already had three customers leave, because they couldn't tag a tree," David Werner said on Friday morning. "We can't let them tag trees that could get run over."

"Most did not know about this work. It was top secret. Among those who knew, not all understood, and among those who understood, not all had access to key decision-makers in Washington. Among those who knew, and understood, and who had access, I was the only one who stood up for it. Without that, it is certain the positive information would never have reached the President. I did something, and I'm glad I did it. I'm glad I did it because it contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union. My only regret is that so many of my former friends who disagreed became bitter. I stood up to an unreasonable majority which wanted to stop the hydrogen bomb."
Dr. Edward Teller on his
role in the development of
the hydrogen bomb, Seattle Times interview, 1995.
"You who are scientists may have been told that you are in part responsible for the debacle (war) of today....but I assure you that it is not the scientists of the world who are responsible....What has come about has been caused solely by those who would use, and are using, the progress that you have made along lines of peace in an entirely different cause."
"As long as America and England insist on unconditional surrender our country has no alternative but to see it through in an all-out effort for the sake of survival and the honor of the homeland."
"I was against (use of the atomic bomb) on two counts. First, the Japanese were ready to surrender and it wasn't necessary to hit them with that awful thing. Second, I hated to see our country be the first to use such a weapon."
"To avert a vast, indefinite butchery, to bring the war to an end, to give peace to the world, to lay healing hands upon its tortured peoples by a manifestation of overwhelming power at the cost of a few explosions seemed, after all our toils and perils, a miracle of deliverance."
"A bright light filled the plane. The first shock wave hit us. We were eleven and a half slant miles from the atomic explosion, but the whole airplane cracked and crinkled from the blast. I yelled `flak!' thinking a heavy gun battery had found us."
"The enemy has begun to employ a new and most cruel bomb, the power of which to do damage is indeed incalculable, taking the toll of many innocent lives."
"It is a profound and necessary truth that the deep things in science are not found because they are useful, they are found because it was possible to find them."
Physicist Niels Bohr.

Latest news is that the loooong awaited GE 13 in the year 2013 will finally be on 14th of April.
DOn't take my word for it… but that's what the insiders are pretty cock sure about now.
13 on 140413…. if it really happens on that date…. at least we can say there's 1 side of Jibby that is definitely progressive. He is not superstitious… hehehehe.
Whatever the date may turn out to be… it has to happen soon enough.
All the (our) money BN has been spending and giving out… all the good news (government and corporate)… all the MANISFESTOs from both sides of the political divide trying to convince us they actually have a plan and have us believe they will actually carry it out with the rakyat at heart.
Lets save all the effort trying to digest all the long stories bullshit, my fellow Malaysians…. lets make it very simple.
Lets just make it all about saying "NO".
"NO" to BN.
THanks to PSY and Jibby in Penang… the "NO" campaign has already started…. and gaining traction on it's own too, most recently in Melaka trust our 2 historical prides to start it too!!.. check out this video
Lets do it… it sounds, at the very least, fun and brainless enough….
From now til GE13, lets attend any BN ceremahs or events and shout with gusto (in harmony if you like) – NOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!
25 years ago… the Chilean national plebiscite – a national referendum held to determine whether or not dictator Augusto Pinochet would extend his rule for another eight-year term in office. It was held on 5 October 1988. The "No" side won with 55.99% of the vote, ending Pinochet's 16½ years in power.
A film has been made about that PEOPLE POWER campaign 25 years ago that liberated the Chileans. This film was nominated for Oscars this year.
Here's the trailer.
Catch the film if you can, my fellow PEOPLE POWER Malaysians…. be inspired by a simple idea and action – VOTE "NO"
More importantly, go home and VOTE this coming elections….
VOTE "NO" to BN… that means… vote ANYTHING BUT BN
Bring BN down!!!!!

Colors of Summer – Our Tribute to Ombre
May 2, 2013 in Featured, New This Season
Is there any palette more inspirational than that of Mother Nature herself? For our Spring/Summer 2013 collection, we were inspired by the blissful beauty of the ocean, where all it takes is sand, a surfboard, and a little sun to make a truly perfect day from sunrise to sunset.
We took the natural ombres from the sea and the sky to make great color options for beach bum boys and girls.
Take a look at some of our inspiration and outfit ideas:

Reinke VRI is used in conjunction with the Reinke RPM Touch Screen and Navigator GPS to perform those actions. "Our VRI Touch Screen control panel becomes the first fully integrated agronomic VRI solution capable of importing water application prescriptions," says Chris Roth, president of Reinke. "Helping growers achieve optimal performance is paramount to us, and we are proud to be able to develop and offer these technology advancements for our customers." Through a partnership with data management company CropMetrics, Reinke offers producers the ability to adjust pivot speed and sprinkler activity with Sector VRI and Zone VRI, respectively. The product maps field conditions and soil variables, creating recommended water rates known as prescriptions. Farmers can also use the product to build and import personalized application schedules. Growers who already use RPM Touch Screen panels with their center-pivot systems can begin using the VRI service by updating their software.

Private: Polling Shows Widespread Opposition to Citizens United v. FEC Decision
Campaign Finance, Citizens United v. FEC, Rep. Van Hollen, Sen. Schumer
Large swaths of the American population oppose the Supreme Court's recent ruling on corporate campaign spending, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll.
"Eight in 10 poll respondents say they oppose the high court's Jan. 21 decision to allow unfettered corporate political spending, with 65 percent 'strongly' opposed. Nearly as many backed congressional action to curb the ruling, with 72 percent in favor of reinstating limits," The Washington Post reported.
The newspaper reported that the polling also revealed "little difference of opinion on the issue among" Democrats and Republicans and that it suggested "a strong reservoir of bipartisan support on the issue for President Obama and congressional Democrats, who are in the midst of crafting legislation aimed at limiting the impact of the high court's decision."
Gary Langer, director of polling at ABC News, noted that the survey also revealed that even some supporters of the Tea Party movement, which rails against the federal government, oppose the outcome in Citizens United.
"Even among people who agree at least somewhat with the Tea Party movement," Langer wrote, "73 percent oppose the high court's rejection of this particular law. Among the subset who agree strong with the Tea Party's position on the issues - 14 percent of all adults - fewer but still most, 56 percent, oppose the high court in this case."
Langer's post includes the entire polling data here.
The 5-4 ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission found that corporations have free speech rights to spend on campaigns, overturning decades of precedent upholding regulations on corporate campaign financing.
The Post noted that Sen. Charles Schumer and Rep. Chris Van Hollen are working on legislation addressing the ruling in Citizens United. In response to the new poll, Sen. Schumer, said, "If there's one thing that Americans from the left, right and center can all agree on, it's that they don't want more special interest in our politics."
ACS will host a panel discussion on Feb. 24 at the National Press Club on the implications of the ruling, including how it may impact the midterm elections. The panel discussion will include Jan W. Baran, a nationally recognized campaign and elections law attorney, who filed a friend-of-the-court brief in Citizens United arguing in support of corporations' free speech rights to spend on campaigns, and Joseph Sandler, a former general counsel for the Democratic National Committee, and also a campaign finance law expert. Following the ruling, Sandler told USA Today that it will likely make it a tougher challenge for incumbents seeking reelection.
