... I ... back to Opinion Journal I'm Mary Kissel ... first it was New York now fast food worker strike the strikes and move to the Midwest and Chicago ... Argus demands of going to backfire on the workers themselves ... Employment Policies Institute director Michael Solsman joins me now from Washington ... and ... Michael all s mania simple question but ... our fast food workers paid what you'd consider a fair wage Paulsen even determined in the market thank you ... sure so I mean I think their wages very fast food workers it ended the day the entry level employees are people were just getting started in the workforce ... and so there we choose to reflect that the media to meet the minimum wage is maybe a little bit above minimum wage depending on the business ... I'm but it's an entry level wages may see who we've seen it happen is over time people get into a job ... on the work their way up in a couple of months due to one did fall once the receiver reason so ... I think their wages while it may not be of live in ways that it's an entry level wage did something that to build on something to work work your way up from the Fed Michael toughest thing through the implications of doubling the minimum wage for fast food workers ... what would that mean ... for these companies' ability to ... hire more workers sore ... eyes to charge a lot of pop for a burger without even be possible ... yet when a you know when we like to sit in the ninety nine cent menu would probably be tended the three ninety nine many of the Clean associate you talk about these kind of businesses who are making a few thousand dollars in profit for each employee ... yet fifteen dollar minimum wage that's about it in the sticker minimum wage at about sixteen thousand dollars to the cost of a full-time minimum wage employee ... and so you either have to dramatically raise the cost your product yet to finally deliver a lot cheaper ... I don't see at your Tennessee unrealistic price increases or more likely because ... with fireplaces customers can to stop for the grocery store so I think more like the we see is ... you see a fast food business looks very different you see touch screens and that in the front customers even placed orders in the back the house ... IPCC lot more automation me see that ... the robot burger flippers be used to joke about the vaccine will become much more cost effective when you have to pay fifteen dollars now are somebody to have the flavor so like I do think that this can accelerate that trend using more I see ... nobody takes your warrior the the the Hamburg it's popped out of the two when you push a button ... absolutely I mean you know I think ... our leaders the country has seen Francisco called momentum machines that is serve ... as a machine like this that they've been advertising ... in a clinic current labor costs that it pays for itself and by the year ... OS again at the current labor cost savings you double current labor costs ... to surfing the could pay for itself in a matter of months so ... I absolutely think it will excel read these trends in the murder and these are sitting here ... scratching your heads in a twenty four percent in employment later I'm include rate for ... people with less than high school diploma and wondering will where the jobs go it's been we automated ... Michael I got a lot of reader feedback the last time we talked about this issue it were really got people fired up and wanted the questions was got married ... you really find these workers who don't know that their ... actions into things that could cost them their own job ... on ... you fool who is really making the counter argument or is anybody pushing back on what these unions are demanding ... yet well ... you know I'd I think it's it's soft it's the it's tough to push back sometimes because they ... the arguments are made a mean is if you look of the recent protests the unit may ... be fine variants are difficult cases they find someone who's maybe a mini is a ... young person or maybe a family whose for working in this job ... I went with the unions were able to find somebody who didn't the minimum wage for much longer period of time ... um so I think they make the arguments are from the exceptions from the people who ... I'm are most like these for garner public sympathy ... I think the right response to that needs to be not getting into that instead saying well ... companies public policy to address some of those difficult cases ... and how can we make sure that the vast majority of people into the hat entry level jobs available ... so they can work their way up the ladder like the rest of us ... more A especially in this economy with this lackluster recovery ... employment Policies Institute Michael

First off, I'm not sure why this is surprising; the Core 2 core has twice as many FP units. Occasionally that results in a huge win. Second off, you're still making the mistake of comparing 1 core to 1 core. You should only compare whole nodes, if you intend on running on all the cores all the time. The dialog then bcomes something like, "hey, my app does really well with the extra FP units, what a shame that the scalability was so bad on those cpus." One app that gets a huge win on Intel in the end is Fluent. Most apps don't see a huge win, especially if they're memory intensive. And us commercial website guys, well, we're all integer. -- greg p.s. Please don't top-post on this mailing list.

BlackBerry 10's launch is just a few weeks away and it can't come soon enough. BB 10 will introduce new gestures to the BlackBerry and they look great. There will probably be a bit of a learning curve for users, but for the most part the gestures make sense.
Check out this video demo of the gestures that GottaBeMobile shot at CES. It gives a good view of just what is coming in BlackBerry 10 in terms of gestures. BlackBerry 10 is reminiscent of webOS in that there are not a lot of navigation buttons in the OS. In fact, I didn't see any navigation buttons. Users move around the OS with gestures. Once you get used to it, you won't want to go back to navigation buttons.
The BlackBerry Hub as well as the new predictive keyboard get a decent amount of time in the video.

It's been waay too long between drinks! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Over the past year or so, the modders amongst us have been coming out with a myriad of excellent lights. A big majority of them have one thing in common though... they all used a single die Luxeon III. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Yes, the LuxIIIs have very long lives. Yes, the LuxIIIs can run from lower voltages. Yes, these LEDs are (relatively) cheap. Yes, they also result in smaller flashlights. But where are those beefy Luxeon V mods? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I want Luxeon V lights!
Introducing... the PocketMate-W.
This light uses the very popular OA2C host, cut down to take either a single Pila 168S Li-Ion rechargable or 2 Lithium CR123As. Total length is 195mm or 7.7inches and it fits in your palm juuust riiiiigght [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. This light uses a boost converter to provide constant current to the Luxeon V LED with W rated flux, binned WX1U to be precise. The light also has a variable output dial perpendicular to the switch just below the head. Output can be varied anywhere between 30mA (Arc AAA brightness) and 1000mA (WOW brightness [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ). UCL lens completes the package.
*** EDIT. Max current will now be set at 1300mA to enhance that WOW factor... making it a 9 WATT monster!!
Here are some photos:

Most anticipated PC game of 2014?
So like the title says, which PC game are you most looking forward to in 2014? Not exactly the easiest choice, there are many on that list I'm absolutely dying to play… :/
Heroes Of The Storm
So I was trolling youtube the other day and came across a Blizzard trailer for Heroes Of The Storm. Now I'm definitely not a DoTA player, actually I haven't even so much as looked at a MOBA-type game before, but this definitely has my interest. Being able to fuck shit up as Diablo is quite high on my list of things to try. It seems to be a DoTA-lite or DoTa for noobs which would really appeal to a complete scrub like me, who has always wanted to try DoTA, but was scared off by the learning curve. Blizzard have this knack of simplifying games just enough to make them accessible, but retaining good strategic depth. Very keen to see how this turns out!
In other news, I've been playing this game called Legends of Eisenwald made by Aterdux Entertainment, a small indie game studio based in Belarus. It's available on Steam as an early access game at the moment and is surprisingly good! Those of you who are fans of turn based games like King's Bounty and Heroes of Might & Magic should check it out. It has its quirks and bugs, but is very unique and has a lot of potential to be a classic game upon full release.
2013 Update
So yup, 2013 is here (happeh nuu yeeeear erryone) and I've moved house yet again. And it's a good un! Larger room, moar storage, bigger bathroom, huge garage, a deck upstairs, open plan kitchen and living area, fast-ish internet, guitar and amp all set up. Significantly better than the old place which was, how do I put it, a little bit shit. Hopefully with a more settled living situation I can maintain some semblance of a steady update schedule.
Oh also Mass Effect 3 was fantastic, and I loved the ending (I had the extended cut installed).
PS – I'm also updating the CMS so the site may break O_O.
PPS – Ok nevermind, that was disastrous lol. Don't fix what's not broken!
Moving House
Quick update. So yeah, moving into a new place, and everything is going all right… but there is NO INTERNET!!! Argggh. The worst part is I am still paying for it and New Zealand internet is fricking expensive. Gah!
No update this week
Christmas planning getting in the way. There will be one more update before I leave the country for Chrissie holidays. Holidays are awesome, I love holidays. Will return around mid jan.

The AJDT automated build process generates various artifacts not created by running an eclipse build, and now provides additional functionality such as packing JARs with the pack200 command, to produce a faster udpate site. However, getting the build working on your own machine has various gotchas, which this page hopes to help you through.
*** This is work in progress, currently being updated from draft version on another machine - please don't attempt to follow this guide until this comment is removed :-) ***
This guide assumes, for now, that your starting point is that you have followed all the steps in the standard developer's guide here:
It is certainly a good idea to familiarise yourself with the Eclipse environment prior to attempting a command line build, but by no means essential. It is also assumed that you are building on Windows XP, or failing that, that you will understand the changes required in order to build on, say, Linux.
The first thing to do is create a root build directory, e.g.
and inside it two directories containing Eclipse installs (including AJDT) versions 3.2 and 3.3, e.g.:
C:\ajdt\build\eclipse32 C:\ajdt\build\eclipse33
NB The naming of these directories is important so use these names, unless you want to change config files (clue: you don't). Both these versions of Eclipse are required, as the build runs using 3.2 but needs 3.3 to build the latest versions of AJDT. So, the simplest thing to do is run up a couple of versions of Eclipse, install AJDT in each, then copy the file sets to your build directory.
Next you need to patch the two Eclipse installs to use the AJDT version of a file called "pdebuild-ant.jar". You'll find that target version under the two respective eclipse3x directories, e.g.:
or something silmilar, depending on the versions of the plugin you have. Replace this file with the AJDT version from:
again, allowing for the version of AJDT you have. This patching results in the AspectJ compiler being used instead of the Java one, so is important, as it saves you wasting a lot of time staring at lots of compilation errors :-)
You now need the AJDT build file for the version of AJDT that you want to build. This is not currently available in CVS, so has been added here as a separate document here on the wiki for now AJDT 1.5 build file
Save this to your root build directory. You now need to set up some environment variables. Add the ant binaries directory to your path and set the ant home variable. If you don't have ant, go get it from Apache Ant Downloads. E.g.:
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\ant\bin set ANT_HOME=C:\ant
Before running the build script, you need to override the default setting for your JDK 1.5. You can either edit the java15-home property at the top of the build script, or override it on the command line with the option (e.g.)
when you run the ant script (where C:\jdk1.5.0_08 is obviously the location of your JDK). The other properties should be fine with the defaults, unless the location of the CVS repository/package or the update site URL have changed.
You should now be able to run a PDE build, using the following command:
ant -buildfile build-ajdt1.5.xml pdebuild -D-Djava15-home=C:\jdk1.5.0_08
The first message from ant will be:
[taskdef] Could not load definitions from resource com/ibm/lakeba/ant/taskdefs.properties. It could not be found.
This is to be expected and can be ignored. However, you should be wary of the ant "Build successful" message once the task has compelted; it's a good idea to check the output for any obvious stack traces, or earlier instances of "Build failed". Assuming all is well, you should now be able to see the built artifacts in (e.g.):
Look under the 'updateSite' subdirectory to see the built 'features' and 'plugins' subdirectories, and the contents therein.

(CNN) -- Carlos Tevez marked his Juventus debut with the winning goal, but it was not enough to put the Italian champions top of Serie A after the opening day of matches.
That honor went to Verona following the promoted side's shock 2-1 victory over AC Milan earlier Saturday.
However, Juve's bid for a 30th scudetto began with few scares against the only team to have beaten the Turin side home and away last season.
Tevez, a $15 million arrival from English club Manchester City in preseason, started up front while fellow new forward signing Fernando Llorente was on the substitutes' bench.
The Argentina international was denied a first-half goal by keeper Angelo Da Costa, who also saved from Kwadwo Asamoah's header, but he made no mistake from close range in the 58th minute after being set up by Paul Pogba.
Read: Racist chants mar Serie A curtain-raiser
It was Tevez's second goal for the club, having also netted in last Sunday's 4-0 Italian Super Cup win over Lazio. That match was marred by racist chanting by some home fans, and as a result Lazio's opening home match this season against Udinese will be played with a section of the stands closed.
Sampdoria had substitute Paolo Castellini sent off in time added on for a foul on Stephan Lichtsteiner.
Llorente was given a brief debut when he came on for Mirko Vicunic in the 89th minute, while Tevez gave way to Sebastian Giovinco.
Read: Death of Italian football exaggerated
Verona celebrated the end of the club's 11-year wait for a top-flight match, as veteran former Italy striker Luca Toni headed two goals to defeat last season's third-placed team Milan.
The seven-time European champions, held 1-1 by Dutch club PSV Eindhoven in last week's Champions League qualifier, took the lead in the 14th minute when Mario Balotelli set up midfielder Andrea Poli.
However, Toni headed home a corner just before the half-hour mark and the 36-year-old repeated the feat from Bosko Jankovic's cross in the 53rd minute.
Balotelli had two strong shouts for a penalty, but the Italy striker ended up with just a booking for his efforts after complaining bitterly when denied on the latter occasion.

Anyone watching the World Cup knows that the French embarrassed themselves while the Americans fought through adversity to win their group for the first time since the first world cup. I believe the reason for this can be found in comparing freedom to socialism.
The French team came to the World Cup by way of a handball goal against Ireland. Even the most novice soccer fans knows your not suppose to use your hands in soccer. Then after getting here they embarrassed themselves. Nicholas Anika was sent home after an argument with their head coach Domenech. This resulted in the French team boycotting practice the next day. Then of course Domench retaliates by keeping the French captain Partice Evra off the field for the final game which South Africa won 2-1. France still could have made the next round with a win. After the game Domenech refused to shake the hand of the South African coach. There's also a video of one of the French managers throwing a clipboard but I can't seem to locate that. You probably saw it on ESPN anyway. Let's compare this to the Americans
The United States ties heavily favored England to open play, Then goes down 2-0 in the first half to Slovenia and comes back to tie. Then has their game winner disallowed by a terrible call by a official. Today the U.S. again has a goal disallowed by a terrible call. They have to score in extra time to advance. Meanwhile there was no skipped practices no one was sent home for being mean to the coach and the captain Landon Donavan scored the winning goal.
So what was the difference in the two teams. The French team was more talented by most accounts. They didn't get anywhere near the amount of bad breaks the Americans did. I think the difference is the France felt entitled to be here. The French team believed everything should be handed to them, much like it is in France. When things started going poorly for them they looked for someone to blame instead of sucking it up and playing hard. The coach blamed the captain the team blamed the coach the manager just quit and has a result the French managed all of one goal in the world cup and even that came when they were behind by two.
Capitalism teaches us that we are responsible for ourselves no matter what the circumstances. In other words when the going gets tough the tough get going. Socialism teaches that when the going gets tough go look for someone to blame then tell them to give you their money. Of course were experiencing a little of that with this administration here in America but I'm praying that doesn't last past
2012. Capitalism will always defeat Socialism and this is just another example.

Plasmoids that use the QML (aka QtQuick) declarative language to describe their user interface while having the logic of the applet, in JavaScript (QML is essentially a forge between CSS and JavaScript).
This is now the recommended method of creating plasmoids, where possible. The plasmoid, or applet serves as the visualization for the data which a Plasma::DataEngine contains.

Continuing my love for all baked things using peanut butter, I present to you a work of art – a peanut butter cookie filled with an oozy ganache filling. Oh boy, does this work!
Somewhat perversely, having amassed a collection of biscuit cutters that can only be contained in 12 drawers of storage (small drawers – it's not like I'm obsessed or anything), I find myself currently favouring biscuit recipes where cutters aren't required. They are often quicker and easier to make.
Having said that, I found these a bit of a faff – however, they are TOTALLY worth it...if they weren't I wouldn't feature them on my site! The problem is moulding the biscuit around the ganache. I tried the approach the recipe said, which was to make a patty then put a spoonful of ganache in the centre, then drawing the sides up:
This was tricky as the dough was prone to crumbling. So I then tried making a patty and pinching the edges to make a volcano – this did work, but the finished bake looked....well, let's just call it rustic:
What worked best for me, was making a ball and using the end of a wooden spoon to make a well, spooning some ganache into it then closing it up. The finished biscuit (shown here uncooked) looked decent enough...
...especially when compared to one of my earlier efforts. Let's be honest, this one ain't gonna win no beauty contest ("why, Ambassador, with this biscuit you're really spoil- ugh!"):
The salty peanut butter in the biscuit works so well with the thick ganache – a flavour sensation!
I decided to double the mixture based on this email exchange with the CCB (Caked Crusader's Brother):
CCB: Do they come in large batches, nothing more disappointing than an epic biscuit that only comes in 24's ?
Me: The mix apparently makes 18, so I'll double it up
CCB: Will there be enough to go round? [Author's note – there were 5 of us for tea, and I was also making a cake]
For the ganache – I found this too much and only needed half. If you're more confident in your biscuit making (particularly with getting ganache into a biscuit dough!) go for it, but – be warned - you might have some left over:
125g dark chocolate – I used half dark, half milk
150ml double cream
For the biscuit:
125g unsalted butter, at room temperature
125g caster sugar
125g crunchy or smooth peanut butter – whichever you prefer, I used crunchy
4 tablespoons golden syrup
1 tablespoon milk
225g plain flour
½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan oven 160°C/350°F/Gas mark 4.
Start by making the ganache, as you want this to have time to cool naturally before adding to the biscuits. Best not to refrigerate it as it can set hard, I found placing it by an open window helped. If you're pushed for time give it a short burst in the fridge. I think my ganache was possibly still too runny so give it time to firm up.
Place the chocolate, broken into chunks, in a heatproof bowl.
Heat the cream to boiling point, then immediately pour over the chocolate.
Leave to stand for a couple of minutes then stir until it is smooth and well combined.
Now make the biscuits: Line two baking sheets with baking paper.
In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until it is light, whipped and fluffy.
Beat in the peanut butter, followed by the golden syrup and milk.
Add the flour and bicarbonate of soda and knead until you have a smooth dough.
Take a generous tablespoon of dough and flatten it into a patty.
Place a teaspoon of the now firm ganache into the centre of the patty and then pull up the sides so you can seal them i.e. leaving you with a ball of biscuit filled with ganache. If the ganache isn't completely sealed in it can leak during baking. I found this didn't always work and it was easier to make an indent (with the end of a wooden spoon) into a ball of dough and then spoon the ganache in before pinching it closed – but you will get less ganache in using this method.
Place the ball on the baking sheet and flatten slightly. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown.
Leave to cool completely, still on the baking sheet, on a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container for several days and eat as and when required.
Bask in the glory of the wonderful thing you have created.

ALBANY - Following the wake of the tragic massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., New York State Senator Catharine Young (R,C,I-Olean) has renewed her call for strengthening New York's Kendra's Law to ensure people with mental illness receive proper treatment and vowed to push her legislation when session convenes in January.
"Obviously, Adam Lanza was a deeply disturbed person who needed help," she said. "There is no other explanation for why he would murder 20 angelic children and the six adults who were trying to protect them.
"Lanza's mother, Nancy Lanza, reportedly was preparing to commit him to a psychiatric facility because she apparently realized he had decompensated to a dangerous level," Young said. "If Kendra's Law had been passed in Connecticut, perhaps it would have allowed Ms. Lanza to intervene with her son earlier, before the situation reached a boiling point and he acted out in such a heinous way.
"The current system is flawed, even in New York," she said. "Why should we allow people with the most severe psychiatric disturbances who pose a risk to themselves or others to deteriorate before they get help? Why should we wait until they become a safety threat? It doesn't make sense. Strengthening Kendra's Law would save victims.
"A measure similar to Kendra's Law failed to pass the Connecticut state legislature earlier this year," Young said. "While we never will know if it would have prevented Lanza from killing his innocent victims in cold blood, studies have shown that Assisted Outpatient Treatment is an effective tool in stopping people with mental illness from doing harm to themselves and others."
Kendra's Law was signed by Governor Pataki in 1999 and allows for court ordered Assisted Outpatient Treatment, or AOT, for individuals who voluntarily won't seek help, but are a safety threat. The law is designed to prevent serious harm to the mentally ill person or others, but gaps exist in the New York system that must be fixed to make it more effective, according to Senator Young.
Kendra's Law is named in honor of Kendra Webdale who grew up in the Chautauqua County Village of Fredonia in Senator Young's district. On Jan. 3, 1999, a man with a long history of schizophrenia stepped onto a busy subway platform in New York City and abruptly pushed Kendra, 32, a journalist and photographer, in front of a 400-ton N train at the 23rd Street subway station. Witnesses would later testify that Webdale's attacker, 29-year-old Andrew Goldstein, did not flee the scene. Instead, stopping just feet from the subway exit, Goldstein quietly stated, "I'm crazy. I'm psychotic. Take me to the hospital."
Earlier this year, the Connecticut state legislature reportedly rejected a bill similar to Kendra's Law proposed to enhance the care and treatment of persons with psychiatric disabilities through AOT.
According to CBS Connecticut, had the AOT bill passed, it would have given the state the right to require treatment for a person with mental illness if there were evidence to believe the individual could be a danger to himself or the community.
A 2009 Duke University study showed AOT significantly reduces physical harm to others. This study also showed it vastly improves the quality of life for people with severe mental illness by reducing suicide attempts, hospitalizations, incarcerations, homelessness and alcohol and drug abuse.
"Untreated mental illness is a major factor in far too many acts of violence, whether someone opens fire on a classroom or shopping mall, shoves a person in front of a subway train, or stabs another individual," Young said. "While those suffering from mental illness also are far too frequently the victims themselves of violent crimes, our system's failure to ensure treatment to those with very serious conditions has led to horrific acts against innocent bystanders.
"Across the state from New York City to Western New York, there have been hundreds of cases of untreated mental illness with tragic consequences during the past several years," she said. "This carnage must stop. It is urgent that action is taken in Albany.
"Those with mental illnesses who are a danger to themselves or others should receive the help they need before anyone is injured," Young said. "Over and over, we see the tragic results of people with untreated serious psychiatric disorders falling through the cracks. Not only were there the senseless Sandy Hook murders, but recently another person was thrown in front of a subway train in New York City by an emotionally disturbed man, and a woman from Tonawanda was stabbed to death by a man whose friend said desperately needed mental health treatment but was turned away.
"Lanza's mother reportedly told friends she increasingly was worried about her son's deteriorating mental state," she said. "In instances like these, family members need to be empowered to help get their loved ones professional treatment."
Senator Young has pushed to strengthen and make permanent Kendra's Law, and she said she is hoping a three-way agreement quickly can be forged between the Senate, Assembly and Governor when session reconvenes in January.
"We've already lost precious time, as tragic incidents continue to occur," she said.
Senator Young said several improvements are needed to make Kendra's Law more effective.
"Far too many cases still fall through the cracks," she said. "My legislation would protect innocent victims from violence and improve the quality of life for people with mental illness."
Highlights of Senator Young's bill (S.4881-B) include:
Making Kendra's Law permanent;
Changing the period which a court may order AOT from six months to up to one year. This measure provides judicial flexibility, and studies have indicated that longer periods of treatment, when appropriate, have been shown to be more effective;
Requiring follow up on those who move during the AOT period to ensure people receive their treatment;
Requiring an evaluation for AOT when mental health patients are released from inpatient treatment or incarceration so people needing services do not fall through the cracks; and
Requiring the Commissioner of the Office of Mental Health to develop an educational pamphlet on the AOT process of petitioning so family members have information on how to file a report. Oftentimes, loved ones are at a loss and feel helpless about how they can help their mentally ill family member.
Senator Young said she has an entire file of cases of seriously mentally ill people harming others because they were not receiving treatment. She cited a few recent examples:
On Dec. 16, Jennifer Sacaridis, 34, of Tonawanda was stabbed to death during a domestic dispute in a housing development by boyfriend Edmund M. Serwinowski, 22. The alleged assailant has been charged with second-degree murder. According to the Buffalo News, "In recent weeks, Serwinowski has been depressed and at times has made suicidal remarks, stating that he was going to kill himself and 'take other people with him'." A neighbor told the Buffalo News Serwinowski's friend and Tonawanda police tried to have him admitted to a mental hospital, but no hospital would take him.
On Dec. 4, 58-year-old Ki-Suck Han of Queens was crushed by a southbound Q train at the Times Square subway station. Naeem Davis, 30, has been charged with second-degree murder for pushing Han off the platform in front of the oncoming train. Witnesses reported Davis had been mumbling to himself, and he told police he "stayed and watched" Han get hit. Davis, who is homeless and had been arrested several times previously in New York City and Philadelphia, told a reporter in a jailhouse interview voices in his head told him to push Han.
On Easter Sunday April 8, New York City Police Officers William Fair and Philip White were attacked with a knife by Bennedy Abreu, 24, of the Bronx after his mother called police when he was acting psychotic. Abreu was off his medications and had barricaded himself in his apartment. Officer Fair sustained a puncture wound to his neck and a slash across his face. Officer White suffered a cut wrist. Abreu's family said they had been concerned since April 2011, when Bennedy stopped receiving court-ordered treatment for his illness.
On April 17, father and New York City Police Officer Eder Loor, 28, miraculously survived a three-and-a-half inch knife being shoved in his brain in East Harlem as he attempted to escort emotionally-disturbed Terrence Hale to the hospital. Hale's mother had called 911 because her mentally ill son was off his medications and was acting out. Hale, who has schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder and depression, was charged with attempted aggravated murder.

Mark your calendars: The Epilepsy Foundation of Eastern Pennsylvania (EFEPA) will hold its annual Summer Stroll to raise awareness and funds for the foundation on Saturday, June 16.
Epilepsy is a disorder in which the brain produces sudden bursts of electrical energy that can interfere with a person's consciousness, movements or sensations.
Last year, the stroll raised more than $100,000. Proceeds from the event support free educational programs and services for individuals with epilepsy and their families, including – but not limited to – an annual summer camp, support groups and individual and family counseling.
The event begins at 8 a.m. with an opening ceremony and warm-ups with the radio station B101 crew. After a five-mile stroll along Forbidden Drive, walkers enjoy a picnic lunch and family entertainment by "Hatman."
Epilepsy affects more than three million Americans – more than multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy and Parkinson's disease combined.
Julia Greenberger, development associate for the EFEPA, said many people are misinformed or know very little about the disease that affects one in a 100 people.
"Misconceptions about epilepsy have a negative impact on everyone in the community through lack of knowledge," Greenberger said. "This can lead to unemployment, isolation, depression, and low self – esteem."
She said the Epilepsy Foundation of Eastern Pennsylvania is leading the fight to end epilepsy and overcome challenges created by seizures by focusing on education, support and advocacy.
It's time to shed some light on epilepsy.
Here are a few unknown facts about Epilepsy:
- Epilepsy is as common as breast cancer and takes as many lives.
- One in 10 people will suffer a seizure in their lifetime.
- Epilepsy can develop at any age and can be a result of genetics, stroke, head injury and many other factors.
- For many soldiers suffering traumatic brain injury on the battlefield, epilepsy will be a long-term consequence.
- In two-thirds of patients diagnosed with epilepsy, the cause is unknown.
- In more than 30 percent of patients, seizures cannot be controlled with treatment.
- Almost 500 new cases of epilepsy are diagnosed every day in the United States.
- Every four minutes someone is diagnosed with epilepsy.
- Historically, epilepsy research has been underfunded.
Dr. Michael Sperling, director of Jefferson Hospital's Comprehensive Epilepsy Center and director of its Neurophysiology Laboratory, said there are many different types of epilepsy and many diverse factors that affect people with epilepsy.
He pointed out that "research is still critical and not adequate at this time to help us" identify and understand all the causes and factors associated with epilepsy.
Madeleine "Madge" Keehn, of Erdenheim, knows firsthand the impact epilepsy has on people's lives and the desperate need for research and free educational programs. Keehn's daughter Andrea died of sudden unexplained death in epilepsy.
According to the Epilepsy Foundation, an estimated 50,000 deaths occur annually in the United States from status epilepticus (prolonged seizures), sudden unexplained death in epilepsy (SUDEP), and other seizure-related causes.
"The Summer Stroll for Epilepsy is a major fundraiser for the Epilepsy Foundation," Keehn said. "With the recent budget cuts, it is more important than ever to raise funds for research and free services."
Keehn is deeply involved in the Epilepsy Foundation and sponsors a scholarship in Andrea's memory each year at Camp Achieve, a weeklong, overnight summer camp for children and teenagers diagnosed with epilepsy.
The camp provides young people between the ages of 8 to 17 a unique opportunity to connect with other individuals coping with the challenges of epilepsy, such as isolation, bullying and discrimination from their classmates, neighbors and community.
Greenberger praised Keehn's dedication and support of the Epilepsy Foundation.
"Madge has been a dedicated volunteer of the Epilepsy Foundation of Eastern Pennsylvania for many years," Greenberger said. "She's actively involved in our Summer Stroll, but she shines most when she is volunteering at our annual summer camp, Camp Achieve. Through the scholarship fund she has created in memory of her daughter Andrea, she has provided many children and teens an opportunity that, for many of them, has been life changing.
"It isn't just her scholarship fund that is a gift to so many campers, it is also the smile and the individual attention that she offers each camper when she visits and volunteers her time at our various camp activities."
Every year Keehn forms "Andrea's Army," a team of family and friends, who walk to remember Andrea, a well-loved dedicated young woman who loved volunteering and working in Chestnut Hill. So far, Andrea's Army has raised $1,800. Its goal is to raise $3,000.

Learn the NEC rules on how to use the grounded neutral conductor as an equipment-grounding conductor.
Under certain conditions, you can ground all metal parts of enclosures used to install service equipment by the grounded neutral conductor on the supply side of the system. When you're using this type of grounding scheme, this includes the service weatherhead, service raceway, service meter base, and service equipment enclosure.
Using grounded neutral conductors on the supply side: Sec. 250 142(a)(1) through (a)(3). You can use the grounded neutral conductor as a current-carrying conductor and grounding means on the supply side of the service disconnecting means and supply side of a separately derived system as follows:
(1) On the supply side of service equipment disconnecting means.
(2) On the supply side of the main disconnecting means for separate buildings and structures, per Sec. 250-32(b).
(3) On the line side of the disconnect or overcurrent protection devices of a separately derived system per Sec. 250-30(a)(1).
Sizing grounded conductor for neutral current: Sec. 220-22. To control the maximum unbalanced load, you must compute the neutral load ampacity. Consider the neutral load (in amps) wherever you use a neutral in conjunction with one or more ungrounded phase conductors. On single-phase circuits using one ungrounded conductor and a neutral, the neutral will carry the same amount of current as the ungrounded phase conductor. However, since a two-wire circuit is rare, let's assume there is a neutral with two or more ungrounded phase conductors. If there are two ungrounded conductors using a shared neutral, the neutral must carry the total current in amps from both phase conductors; which is not an accepted practice.
Let's take a look at an example for clarification. Consider the ungrounded phase conductors supplying the main service panelboard in our example are 600kcmil THWN copper conductors (60 degreesC/75 degreesC terminals). You can determine the neutral conductor size by:
Step 1: Determine the load on each phase conductor. L1 = 112A, L2 = 110A, and L3 = 106A.
Step 2: Calculate the maximum unbalanced load. L1 = 112A.
Step 3: Select the proper size neutral conductor per Table 310-16. Here, 112A requires a No. 2 AWG conductor.
Sizing neutral to carry fault current: Sec. 250-24(b)(1) and (b)(2). When you ground an AC system (operating at less than 1000V), you must run the grounded neutral conductor to each service disconnecting means. The grounded neutral conductor size must not be less than requirements shown in Table 250-66. You must route this grounded neutral conductor with the phase conductors. If service conductors are larger than 1100kcmil (copper) or 1750kcmil (aluminum), you can't use Table 250-66. If the grounded conductor is larger than the above figures, the grounded neutral conductor size can't be smaller than 12.5% of the area of the largest phase conductor. If the conductors are paralleled, you must base the grounded neutral conductor size on the total circular mil area of the paralleled conductors per Sec. 250-24(b)(2) and Sec. 310-4.
Let's look at an example showing how to size an equipment-grounding conductor to clear ground-faults. The ungrounded phase conductors supplying the main service panelboard in our example are 600kcmil THWN copper conductors (60 degreesC/75 degreesC terminals). You determine the neutral conductor size by referring to Table 250-66. Here, No. 1/0 AWG THWN copper conductor was selected to meet Code.
Neutral tip. Sec. 310-15(b)(4)(c) requires you to increase the size of the neutral supplied by a 3-phase, 4-wire, wye-connected system if a major portion of the load consists of nonlinear loads saturated with harmonic currents. FPN 2 of Art. 220-Sec. 22 warns of this problem. Here, you may have to double the neutral in size or harmonic filters installed to correct the problem.


text: If all things go as planned, My wife and I will be moving into our first house in April here. Just curious if anyone has any suggestions on which avenue I should go for my Home Theater. The basement is unfinished, so room design is fairly open to what I can do. There are two large windows in the Basement which will be in this room(screen would be 15 feet away from the nearest window, and I plan on using the screen during the day and/or night, mostly at night. The room will be used for entertaining purposes only, not an everyday thing. I plan on having things besides just theater in the room(ping pong table, etc.) Just wondering if a projector will be bright enough to use for multi purpose for TV etc with a few lights on. Going for the best bang for my buck. It looks like projectors are pretty reasonable right now. Any comments would be helpful.

Spend the Christmas holiday coloring.
The holidays are coming; Santa Claus is about to share his bag full of gifts with all the children in the world and what better present for Christmas than Christmas coloring pages for the little bundles of joy.
If you are a primary school teacher, you can go online to find the best photos and practice your crafts with the little ones. Small children learn by repeating and by playing. If you will offer them some Christmas coloring pages, they will be really impressed and happy. You might as well sing carols with them, just to set the holiday mood.
Christmas is the most fun part of the year when children receive gifts, make snowmen as well as they also get a holiday. During that holiday, they can learn about Christmas from the Christmas coloring pages.
The last week of school is the most boring one, so go online and download some coloring books so you could make it more fun. Along with the Christmas activities, you could also teach children about family and Vacation, because they all go together especially in the cold season.
Most children learn faster from coloring and drawing when they are young, so if you want to increase their appetite for learning, you could get them coloring books for Christmas. They will be thrilled and will learn how to make a snowman, how to put up a tree and maybe what carols are.
Happy holidays and a happy new year with the latest coloring options for you and the small ones!

The influx of Hispanic people to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina has led to a permanent change in local demographics. While the Spanish-speaking population has boomed in the United States during the past few decades, it largely bypassed New Orleans.

- New Orleans through the years, as covered by The Times-Picayune
- Tell us your New Orleans stories
The small Hispanic population here was much older, having its roots in the banana trade. That all changed as tens of thousands of migrants swept in to find plentiful Katrina rebuilding work. Many have stayed, opened businesses and put down roots.
A highly mobile population of Hispanic workers, mainly young men, follows natural disasters like Katrina. Some were already in the United States, while others found their way here from Mexico and Central America. Shortly after Katrina, a group of migrants lived in the flooded London Lodge on Airline Highway while they were gutting it. Others migrants lived on the street or in abandoned buildings.
The massive rebuilding coupled with the evacuation of many tradesmen and construction workers created a vacuum filled by skilled immigrants in the construction trades, who moved their families from other cities.
The poorest and most mobile workers have largely moved on. But there remains a day laboring group, men who wait for work in front of construction supply businesses and a few intersections. The city of Gretna in 2011 opened a shelter for laborers under the West Bank Expressway, providing better control of the population while making their wait for work more comfortable.
Many new businesses owned by Hispanics have sprung up, including groceries and restaurants. Some of the early entrepreneurs, owners of "taco trucks" providing cheap, fast meals to workers, ran into opposition from established eateries. Jefferson Parish banned the trucks in 2007.
The opening of the Esperanza Charter School in New Orleans showed that some of the migrants were putting down roots and were here to stay. The 2010 U.S. Census showed a near doubling of the Hispanic population in Jefferson Parish, to 14 percent. The new immigrants joined a prosperous and long-established Honduran community who have lived in the area for decades. In New Orleans, 5 percent of the population
is Hispanic, up from 3 percent in 2000.

The Philadelphia Eagles' miserable season continues to get worse. Running back LeSean McCoy suffered a concussion with under two minutes to go in Sunday's loss to the Washington Redskins.
Eagles coach Andy Reid said the team still was trying to win at the time. The score was 31-6. Sigh.

Here are the rest of the big Week 11 injuries:
1. NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported that New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski suffered a broken forearm during the Patriots' final extra-point attempt in a 59-24 win over the Indianapolis Colts and likely will undergo surgery Monday. He's expected to miss four to six weeks. Aaron Hernandez (ankle) could return for the Patriots' Thanksgiving Day game against the New York Jets, but this clearly is a massive loss.
2. Denver Broncos running back Willis McGahee left the 30-23 win over the San Diego Chargers in the first half with a knee injury. Ronnie Hillman took over at running back (fantasy alert). McGahee experienced swelling in his knee and will undergo an MRI on Monday, according to Broncos coach John Fox.
3. Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith suffered a high ankle sprain during the 23-20 overtime victory over the Cleveland Browns. He will miss the Thanksgiving showdown against the Washington Redskins. The Cowboys' offensive line is in very rough shape.
4. Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Dwayne Bowe left the 28-6 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals with a head/neck injury and did not return. Could this season get any worse in Kansas City?
5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Eric Wright left the 27-21 overtime win over the Carolina Panthers with an Achilles injury and did not return. The Bucs' secondary already was struggling before Wright's injury.
6. Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blaine Gabbert left with an elbow contusion and did not return in a 43-37 overtime loss to the Houston Texans. Jaguars coach Mike Mularkey indicated Chad Henne might start at quarterback next week after a great effort against the Texans.

7. Colts wide receiver Donnie Avery was concussed against the Patriots.
8. Patriots defensive end Chandler Jones hurt his leg early against the Colts. He returned to the sideline and appeared ready to play for a while, but he never got back in the game.
9. Cowboys wide receiver Kevin Ogletree made an early exit against the Browns with a head injury and did not return.
10. Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather just can't stay healthy. He hurt his knee in his first game of the season.
11. Chargers cornerback Quentin Jammer left with a leg injury against the Broncos and never returned.
12. Baltimore Ravens tight end Dennis Pitta suffered a concussion in the Ravens' 13-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on "Sunday Night Football." Steelers running back Isaac Redman also suffered a concussion and did not return.Follow Gregg Rosenthal on Twitter @greggrosenthal.

Renault hoping powerunits will be close to 100% by Canada
Renault says there is more to come from its powerunit over the coming races and believes it is possible to get close to 100% by the Canadian Grand Prix.
Renault's powerunit started the year with several issues and its customers have struggled to match the Mercedes-powered teams, especially on power-sensitive circuits such as Bahrain and China. It has made progress to allow its teams to run closer to full performance in races, but there is still clearly a deficit to the Mercedes engine oveall.
The next two races in Spain and Monaco will not be so power-sensitive, but head of track operations Remi Taffin is not allowing that to distract from the bigger issues.
"I would not say optimism [for the change in circuit type], we are still on realism," he said. "It's fair to say that coming into Barcelona or Monaco it's not going to be massively power sensitive, but it is going to be massively energy sensitive. In the race it's always going to be important to have the power unit working right. At least we have three weeks [between the last race in China and Spain] to keep on doing the job, and then maybe ahead of Montreal having something that is very close to 100%.
"Overall it is looking promising, but we must not forget that we need the reliability and we are working on that area. It's obvious that we've been among the engine manufacturers that have introduced most of the new components and it's fair to say we need to focus on reliability to get through all the races. It's not only performance that we need, we need also to finish races."
Asked if Renault could match Mercedes at any point this year or if it would have to wait for a more considerable overhaul of engine hardware next winter, Taffin added: "It's very difficult to say, because when we get to the point at which we have the same amount of energy around the lap, it's all about having maximum power. How do you compare power? You go into the games of drag level and so on, but one thing we can say is that Mercedes is quicker down the straights and quicker round the lap, so I presume that they have got a better engine than us.
"That must be right, but having said that there is more than the V6 and the turbo and the electrical machine to get the most out of the power unit. We can discuss about oil, we can discuss about fuel, so we still have a good work in progress with Total in terms of fuel. Definitely there is more to come."

WOF: How often do you use your computer's optical drive?By Jose Vilches 87 comments
With the proliferation of broadband connectivity and cheap USB flash drives we seem to be on the verge of another transition. The idea has been a tad slower to catch on but a few laptops have already dropped their optical drives for the sake of portability. With decent do-everything DVD burners going for less than 20 bucks and Blu-ray crossing the $100 threshold, optical discs are obviously going to live on for a while, but the truth is they are not as convenient as they used to be for consuming or transporting data and many of us rarely use them anymore.
Virtually all of my media and software today comes from online sources, and for doing backups I usually resort to an external hard drive or even the cloud. With that in mind we want to ask you: how often do you use your computer's optical drive? For those that use it regularly, what do you primarily need it for? And for those of you who don't, would you say you are ready to drop it altogether? Let us know your thoughts.

Hot Weather Pet Safety Tips [VIDEO]
In light of the sizzling temperatures this week, I dropped by Mini-Critters in Sioux Falls and talked to Ginger about protecting our pets from the heat wave. Here are some of the tips Ginger shared with me::
1. Always keep fresh cool water available
One of the most important things to remember for dogs in hot weather is to make sure their water bowl is always full.
2. Keep your pets inside
Dogs love the yard, but if you're going to be gone for longs days this summer, it may be safer to keep your dog in the house. That way your pets can lounge safely in the air conditioned goodness and stay safe from the hot weather.
3. Take a dip
Swimming can be a great way to help dogs in hot weather cool off. Check your local area for lakes or rivers that provide safe swimming locations for dogs.
4. Don't leave your pet in a car
Even if parked in the shade, cars can heat up fast and become a dangerous place for your dog in hot weather after only minutes.
5. Take walks in the early morning and evening
6. Watch for coolant spills
In addition to the dangers of hot asphalt, another thing to watch for when walking dogs in hot weather is coolant spills.
7. Summer treats
One great summer treat for dogs is ice cubes. Most dogs love them, and ice cubes will keep them busy and hydrate them at the same time.
The bottom line is this: follow these tips for hot weather pet safety so you and your pet can enjoy many summers together!

From Media Day until opening night, NBA.com's John Schuhmann will provide a key stat for each team in the league and show you, with film and analysis, why it matters. Up next are the Los Angeles Clippers, who have as bright a season outlook as they've ever have.
|The basics
The stat
41.6 percent – Clippers opponent 3-point percentage with Willie Green and Caron Butler on the floor together last season.
The context
That 3-point defense would have ranked last in the league by far, almost three percentage points worse than the Bobcats. But with neither Green nor Butler on the floor, Clippers opponents shot just 33.3 percent from 3-point range, a mark that would have ranked second in the league, only behind the Pacers.
As the starting wings, Green and Butler were defending better shooters (and better shot creators) than their second-unit teammates. But 41.6 percent is pretty awful and overall, the Clips ranked 26th in 3-point defense, a number that held them back from being as good as they could have been. Their opponents shot a remarkable 45.4 percent from 3-point range in their 26 losses.
Clippers opponent 3-point shooting
|On floor
|Butler + Green
|1 of the 2
|At least 1
The Clippers basically had two different teams last season, a starting lineup that was great offensively and a bench that was much better defensively. Green and Butler weren't the only defensive questions with the starters, of course. The first unit (with Green starting 60 games and Chauncey Billups starting 22) was below average as a whole, and the need for Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan to improve on that end was addressed in this space early last month. Without the bench bigs they had last season, the Clippers need their starting frontline to improve defensively if they're going to contend for a championship.
But the departure of Butler and less playing time for Green (as long as J.J. Redick is healthier this season than Billups was last season) should also help. Green often got caught on screens and Butler often got caught ball-watching or over-helping, as some of these plays, from games where the Magic and Lakers combined to shoot 11-for-16 from 3-point range with Green and Butler on the floor, show…
The Clippers defended the basket well. Their opponents attempted just 30.9 percent of their shots from the restricted area, the fifth lowest rate in the league. And their opponents shot 59.7 percent there, the 11th lowest rate in the league. They actually ranked second in defending 2-point shots and were a top 10 defense overall.
But they can get better by not fouling so much – they ranked 29th in opponent free throw rate – and defending the 3-point line better.
Phoenix opponents shot 37.2 percent from 3-point range with Jared Dudley on the floor last year (there's some Michael Beasley influence in those numbers), and Orlando/Milwaukee opponents shot 34.6 percent with Redick on the floor. Doc Rivers' Celtics, meanwhile, ranked in the top five in 3-point defense each of the last six seasons. So a new scheme and more focus on that end could make a big difference.

A book that details William Wallace and his rising to fight for Scottish Freedom against Edward the Longshanks. The book cover some of Wallace's origins, the other political players of the period and the climate that brought England and Scotland into a clash, and had a commoner threating a King.

The Playlist:
Earlier today, producer/enemy of quality Neal Moritz confirmed what anyone with a brain and cursory knowledge of the box office charts of early 2011 was aware of: a sequel to "Green Hornet," his Michel Gondry-directed, Seth Rogen-led superhero movie of last January, isn't happening any time soon. The film wasn't a giant flop -- it made a good-but-not-great $98 million domestically, part of a total $227 million worldwide haul. Not a bad number, but considering the movie cost $120 million plus whatever they poured into the extensive marketing campaign, the profit margin was likely razor thin.
There are a lot of sequels that I like but some aren't any good. I do however am glad they're making a Red 2, I wish they were making a Salt 2 and I do wish that Green Hornet had gotten a second chance.
Men in Black really didn't need to go this far but i hope it makes up for messing up the last one because it was aweful.
I want to see a WANTED 2, it has a good story comic book wise and I'd love them to explore that. The game actually told a better story than the movie in my opinion....
I don't agree with GI Joe and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. GI Joe was done poorly, but it has that blockbuster appeal that NEEDS to be done right, and it seems they have figured it out this time. Diary of a wimpy kid also has good stories and should be told in theater for the entire family. We see all these books turn into movies, but Diary of a wimpy kid actually deserves it.
GI Joe will get another chance by me even though the first wasnt that great. the rock def helps.
im over 14 and i thought wanted was awesome, id love a sequel.
jumper sucked and hayden is an idot so im glad thats dead.
also percy was a terrible movie i cant believe they're making another
Jumper was a surprisingly enjoyable movie and I would love to see a sequel to both that and Wanted.
I have to admit that Percy wasn't BAD. Just not good. If they set it to a darker and less kid friendly tone it wouldn't be half bad at all. I dunno why the original was so childish when a character got stabbed in the throat with a Trident at the ending. That's like this new Star Wars trilogy having mutilations and yet still having the lamest brand of kiddy humor.
I'm glad GI Joe is getting a much darker and more serious sequel with Marlon Wayans screwing up the story of super soldiers in a vicious war. Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes carried the 1st film (no surprise there) but it's looking like the sequel will have it's cast stand on their own.
I despised Grown Ups with a passion.

Support in in what way?
Weld is biz logic agnostic, pure CDI impl.
Imo, what you're looking for is DeltaSpike.
2. Re: @RolesAllowedJuergen Zimmermann Apr 28, 2012 2:02 PM (in response to Ales Justin)
IMHO, when I'm using @RolesAllowed (JSR 250) for a managed bean having annotations due to CDI 1.0, then @RolesAllowed isn't applied to check authorization. However, using @RolesAllowed for a session bean (EJB 3.x), then authorization is checked. Therefore, my question is whether @RolesAllowed will be considered in CDI 1.1 (or Weld 2.x).
I guess DeltaSpike will provide a security mechanism similiar to Seam Security.


text: I feel it's a double edged sword. Usually when intel ships a great new part, all the sites are discussing it and 1 or 2 vague tests show up. AMD seems to use the path you describe below. Suddenly K7-MP 1.2ghz was there crushing P4 Xeon 1.7Ghz at the time. Suddenly opteron was there at 2.2Ghz crushing anything intel had bigtime, including itanium (integer wise). What AMD ships usually gets benchmarked. Intel nowadays seems to release special benchmark chips, eating a 150+ watt and having some unrealistic high price. Look who sells better though. It's obvious that making noise with all drums you have in a nonstop manner, about upcoming great release, is a lot more effective, than AMD's non- existing marketing. For a company worth $10-$20 billion (or what is it?) that's nonstop nearly bankrupt nearly releasing some great new product, it should be possible to pay a good marketing manager from the interest at the bankloan. Marketing is everything.
