Flat performances, wandering "wolves", bewilderment over 11-digit price tags and a pall of disinterest settling over the whole corrupt show. Art has imitated life — or, more appropriately, sport has imitated Wall Street — in recent weeks. Just look at that smirking bear over there.
But as we bid "do svidaniya" to the costliest, and probably strangest, Olympics ever, we may also be saying goodbye to the listlessness of the current market. And because stocks have been "consolidating through time and not price," they could be about to give the bulls another boost, according to Jerry Khachoyan of the Armo Trader blog.
What will the next catalyst be? Maybe the WhatsApp deal sparks an M&A binge. After all, Ernst & Young says 2014 will be a "strong" year for that kind of thing, worst case. Best case, it's a "blockbuster." Or perhaps Janet Yellen shows up to work in front of the Senate Banking Committee on Thursday, and blows more of that Fed sunshine. A smattering of economic data and earnings could even come into play.
But, in the early stages, there's no goosing of stocks to be seen. Yet.
Key market gauges: Markets are setting up for a sleepy start to the week, keeping with recent trends as futures on the Dow /quotes/zigman/25835223/realtime YMZ4 and the S&P /quotes/zigman/21588523/realtime ESZ4 are leaning slightly to the south. Same is true with Europe's /quotes/zigman/2380150/realtime XX:SXXP major indexes. Earlier, Asia /quotes/zigman/6959860/realtime XX:ADOW closed mostly lower, bogged down by a steep drop in Shanghai /quotes/zigman/1859015/realtime CN:SHCOMP that may have been triggered by some new-home-price data. Check out our Asia Markets recap.
The buzz: While everybody is still mulling the price tag and potential of Facebook's /quotes/zigman/9962609/delayed /quotes/nls/fb FB buy of WhatsApp, Hamish McKenzie says Zuck will have to look to China if he wants to make it work. "For $19B, Facebook has bought a lot of user attention and neutered a potential threat to its social graph. What it hasn't bought is the future of the consumer Internet," he wrote. "That is being built elsewhere."
Jos. A. Bank /quotes/zigman/56759/delayed /quotes/nls/josb JOSB is up over 7% in premarket after suitor (ahem) Men's Wearhouse /quotes/zigman/233713/delayed /quotes/nls/mw MW upped an offer for its rival to $63.50 from $57.50 per share. There's one condition though, Jos. A. Bank has to back out of its plan to buy Eddie Bauer.
RF Micro Devices /quotes/zigman/63190/delayed /quotes/nls/rfmd RFMD is up 22% and Triquent Semiconductor /quotes/zigman/55516/delayed /quotes/nls/tqnt TQNT jumped 26% in premarket after the two agreed to a merger-of-equals, all-stock deal.
More crazy stuff happening in the bitcoin world. The virtual currency's value took some incredibly wild swings over the weekend on Mt. Gox, which reportedly said it would start allowing withdrawals again. Then deleted all its tweets. Oh, and its CEO is resigning from the Bitcoin Foundation board. Here's what the moves looked like.
The Mobile World Congress is underway in Barcelona, with Mark Zuckerberg's keynote and an array of fancy new smartphones the stars of the show. Keep up to date with streaming coverage from the Wall Street Journal.
The chart of the day: Having just emerged from the haze of my first post-legalization Colorado vacation, this chart caught my attention. And that of hundreds of others. Wonder if the curve will now, finally, start to take on more of a bell shape.
The call of the day: Shares of Fannie Mae /quotes/zigman/226360/delayed /quotes/nls/fnma FNMA and Freddie Mac /quotes/zigman/226335/delayed /quotes/nls/fmcc FMCC are poised to rise as much as 15-fold in the coming years, predicts hedge funder Bill Ackman, a recent buyer of sizeable stakes in both. He told an investment conference he is convinced shareholders will win lawsuits against the U.S. government that challenged the Treasury Department's bailout agreement with the two companies, the Wall Street Journal reported. He predicted that the Supreme Court would side with the plaintiffs, if it reached that point, which would immediately give a massive boost to the stock. For Ackman's sake, let's hope this bet turns out a lot better than his disastrous Herbalife /quotes/zigman/361145/delayed /quotes/nls/hlf HLF play. Read about his biggest loser ever.
Random reads: Sean Parker lets it rip at gossip sites. Oh, and he apparently has a $20 million house that just sits there. Empty. Because he can.
Getting a gig at Google /quotes/zigman/93888/delayed /quotes/nls/goog GOOG isn't all about your G.P.A. these days.
A glimpse into the lavish but secretive life led by the captured Sinaloa cartel boss.

Google is about to buy Groupon for $6 billion - and that's great news for Facebook.
There are two main reasons.
One is that Groupon - already a huge Facebook advertiser - will now have Google's billions fueling a marketing budget that no longer needs to spend a dime on search ads.
The second reason is that while Groupon isn't as dependent on Facebook for customer-acquisition as Zynga is, it's closer than you might think. From sources familiar with Groupon's business, we understand that much of Groupon's rapid growth has been thanks to the way its subscribers will share coupons through Facebook. Remember, a Groupon discount doesn't go into effect until a threshold of buyers is met.
As Groupon grows, a growing part of Google's revenues will depend on Facebook remaining a very healthy platform. That's new.
Some other ways the Groupon-Google deal effects Facebook:
Groupon solves Google's social problem. It doesn't give Google a consumer-facing social product - but it does give Google huge exposure to group-buying, one of the two inherently social industries making hundreds of millions of dollars off of Facebook's success. (The other industry is social games, where Zynga is a leader.) After buying Groupon, Google will finally be making money in social. (This means it has less reason to dedicate resources to killing Facebook.)
Groupon - Google is great news for the developing SEM-for-Facebook industry. Thanks to Facebook's Ads API - only truly opened wide enough for businesses to depend on this year - marketing firms like Toronto's AdParlor can, with the ability to test thousands of ads at once, reduce the cost of customer-acquisition for Facebook advertisers by 20% to 50%. With Google pouring money in the Facebook ad ecosystem - and potentially driving up prices - that kind of efficiency becomes more important then ever. Expect a flowering in this industry.

A morning view of Po river from the bridge Vittorio Emanuele I.
Built by Napoleon in 1813, it was the first Turin bridge entirely made of stone.
The view goes from Piazza Vittorio Veneto to Borgo Po with the Gran Madre church, then up to Monte dei Cappuccini and back to the Murazzi.
Far away over the hill, the unmistakable shape of Superga Basilica.
Capital as well as cultural and business center of the Piedmont region, Turin is famous as headquarters of Fiat and Lancia, birthplace of Telecom Italia and Rai television and host of the 2006 Winter Olympics. Turin has a modern public transport infrastructure so it is easy to get to architectural sites and museums, most notably the Mole Antonelliana, which is the home of the National Cinema Museum. Home to Torino and Juventus, two historical italian football teams, the region is famous as the birth place of solid chocolate over 200 years ago. Gianduiotto is perhaps the most famous Turin chocolate currently in production.

Girls on the Internet have had a tough August.
Earlier this month, UK tabloid The Sun reportedly showed Sports Illustrated covergirl Kate Upton a photo of teen boy-band sensation One Direction and asked her to pick out which member she thought was the cutest. If you're unfamiliar with the group (or their hits "One Thing" and "What Makes You Beautiful"), they're five teenagers with attitude formed a la the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers on the seventh season of the British version of 'The X Factor'. Imagine the Spice Girls if they were boys, and all five of them were Baby Spice. Kate apparently pointed out band member Harry Styles, which instantly caused rumors that she had a crush on him and planned to hook up with him at the MTV Video Music Awards. I don't know.
Anyway, the rumors were squashed, but with the VMAs only a week away (they air on September 6), radio hosts like Ryan Seacrest are bringing them up again. If you felt a rumbling yesterday afternoon, don't be alarmed — it was only One Direction's six-million-plus Twitter followers FREAKING THE F**K OUT because their confrontational sexual armageddon is nigh. One Direction Kate Upton rumors are their horsemen.
It's a nice mixture of girls pretending they've never heard of Kate Upton, girls feeling shamed and insignificant because America's closest living equivalent to Jessica Rabbit is competing for the same guy as them, a metric ton of name-calling and good old fashioned death threats. I've compiled a few of my favorites, and I hope you enjoy them. Well, "enjoy" is probably the wrong word.
There's an order to these things, Ryan!
Directioners? That's a funny name. I would've called them 'One-Offs'.
This is one of my favorites, because it's followed by this:
and this:
I'd like to think she made her Twitter name "no" as a constant reminder to herself.
This is one of the few, straight-forward, Selena-esque threats to the One Direction guy instead of Kate.
Some of them leave it to your imagination.
Yes, lady, "not being a model" is the only reason a guy from a band you like wouldn't date you. The only one.
Suicide threat #1.
This is like its own little novella.
might have to spam
jk but wow,
You're always the voice of reason, "faggotcurls".
Suicide threat #2.
I'm guessing she's using "baby" like "boyfriend" and not "baby" like "baby", but with these people, you never know.
It seems important to note here that almost every one of these people had a One Direction stock photo as their Twitter background, so I lost track of who was making murder threats and who was making a wall FULL of murder threats.
These girls finding out Kate Upton exists must be like Nite Owl I finding out Dr. Manhattan exists.
This is the first time I've read both "Kate Upton" and "my asshole" in a sentence meaning "bad".
Suicide threat #3. I should probably stop counting.
I didn't cry when I found out Kate Upton was dating Justin Verlander, I mostly just thought "wow, I wish I was Justin Verlander".
Listen to fab sadie lol, Harry, that gorgeous young popular model with boobs the size of your head is not your type, she knows you better than you know yourself.
Writing the first 9 episodes of 'My Potato Life' as we speak.
To be continued, I guess.
iawtc (jk)
literally famous
She came up with a trending hashtag, is crying because two celebrities have exchanged text messages and is blaming the radio station she heard the news on for a singer she likes considering hooking up with a model he could probably nail in this one year of popularity in his life. #priorities
Suicide threat #4, I think?
Suddenly, the Earth's population dropped to 45.
You know you're lazy when you outsource your death threats.
Gonna take a wild guess and say your confidence died a long time before yesterday afternoon.
SMDH, am I right, guys?
And what does Kate think of all this, you may ask?
If I was Kate Upton, my response would be "brb, rubbing my gorgeous tits in that British child's face".

MOD Consulting needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 321 designs submitted by 94 freelance designers.
I Rock Designs
I Rock Designs is a non-profit organization started by a 9 year old who was inspired to start a business to help kids in need. The company has two purposes:
1) to help build kid's self esteem through a line of products (starting with t-shirts) that loudly proclaim "I Rock." Why do these kids rock? Because they have chosen to support a charity where the funds are given to kids in need (The first donations are planned to go to The Make a Wish Foundation.)
2) to give back to the community. Profits from the sale of I Rock merchandise will be distributed to charities which directly benefit children. I Rock designs core value proposition is "kids helping kids."
Target Audience for I Rock merchandise is kids aged 5-12. Although the appeal should be uni-sex, it will skew slightly to boys and sports enthusiasts.
The corporate logo will be leveraged into merchandise designs, corporate brand identity, and company web site. Therefore, we need a full color logo, plus single color for screen printing. Legibility and reproduceablity across a variety of mediums should be a design consideration. We would like to have the logo in .eps, jpeg, and .gif file formats.
Although this is a kid-based business, we would like the design to be edgy and cool... not childish. We have been inspired by sports designs like Tap Out or edgy fashion brands like Ed Hardy or Skin Industries.
The color palette for the first collection of merchandise will be bold and high energy (blues, greens, red, black, orange) Logo should work well with a strong palette.
We are open to all creative explorations. The corporate logo will read "I Rock Designs" but should include I Rock as the primary (or larger) message and Designs as seconday. Text treatment and capitalization is open ended.
We would also like to see a brand badge design utlizing "IRD" to stand for I Rock Designs... this may become a brand signature for merchandising.
Although the word "Rock" will inspire music/band imagery, we are not interested in that creative direction.
If you have any questions, please email email@example.com. We look forward to receiving your concepts!

February 05, 2009
SANTA MONICA, CA -- Project ECHO has scheduled its fifth annual high school business plan competition for Sunday, March 1, 2009. Hosted by the Harold and Pauline Price Center for Entrepreneurial Studies at UCLA Anderson School of Management, this competition provides high-school students in Greater Los Angeles the opportunity to develop and present business plans to prominent members of the local business community, as they compete for resources to launch their unique ideas.
"Project ECHO empowers students with the resources and support to help them develop new student run ventures and grow existing on-campus businesses," said Chip Goodman, co-founder and chairman, Project ECHO. "We are proud to have 19 of the teams in our competition presenting plans to launch or expand an on-campus business -- which will provide meaningful, hands-on entrepreneurial learning."
The new on-campus venture, Venice High Sports Medicine, will provide low-cost movement screenings for students and people in the local community to learn how to maintain a healthy body and avoid chances for future injury. Their service also provides correctional and rehabilitation exercises for the client in order to eliminate impingements and improve their functional movement screen score. To do so, trainers will set individual goals and personal timelines for each client.
Then there are the students from Le Cafe de Jeunes Gens, an off-campus business concept to promote the well being of teens in their community. The Cafe will provide a place to go which is safe and productive. Le Cafe de Jeunes Gens will offer many programs such as yoga, poetry night, film workshops, film night (Independent filmmakers welcomed), art workshops, dance classes, creative writing, music classes, screenwriter night, music night, 80's night, 60's night, and multicultural night. The Cafe seeks young adults interested in any type of art or in search for help. The goal is to create an ambience where an interest is shared, different viewpoints are shared, and new ideas are created amongst a large audience.
During the twelve weeks leading up to the competition, UCLA Anderson MBA students act as mentors to the participating teams. The UCLA Anderson students visit classrooms to teach the Project ECHO business plan curriculum, meet with teams to review their written plans, and prepare students for their oral presentations.
"Project ECHO gives students the chance to learn more about business fundamentals and then apply what they've learned immediately through the development of their business plans," said Carine Ildebrando, UCLA Anderson MBA 2009. "One of the best parts about being a mentor in a Project ECHO is seeing how creative and passionate the students are about their ideas. It's amazing how much has been accomplished since November, and it is truly exciting to know that some of these businesses can come to fruition in the near future."
This year, 27 teams will be competing in one of three categories: New On-Campus Business, Existing On-Campus Business and Off-Campus Business. Winning teams from each category will receive a $1,000 award, second place teams will receive a $500 award and third place teams will receive a $250 award. In addition, Project ECHO will work closely with the award recipients throughout the year, providing ongoing resources and support in seeking out opportunities to finance their business ideas.

A networking reception will be held at 1:00 pm, followed by the award ceremony when the winners will be announced. The competition will be held on the UCLA campus at UCLA Anderson School of Management, Korn Hall. Contact Project ECHO at (310) 434-2701 to reserve seats.

I didn't quite parse that. "32 bit" and "64 bit" have basically nothing to do with double precision floating point. Accelerated double FP has been common in "32 bit" chips for quite some time. In any case the best way to decide on nodes, is to take all the nodes that meet your needs (run the needed compilers, OS, and applications), fit any weight, heat, space and heat constraints, then take the application that justifies the cluster purchase and measure both performance and price/performance. Buying nodes on "theoretical maximum performance" is much like buying a car based on what the maximum RPM of the engine is. > Is it nowadays the 64 bit solution using Linux ready for production? IMO, yes. > If this is the case, which problems may we have to deal with in order to > compile and run our code in a full 64 bit environment? Well written code should "just work" with or without a recompile. Well written means never assuming that a pointer and an integer is the same size (by assigning one to the other), or assuming (with pointer arithmetic) that a pointer is 4 bytes. Often porting an application to a new architecture exposes bugs in the original code that affected the original architecture as well. > Which is the most mature solution: AMD Opteron or Intel Itanium? I've run both without noticing a lack of maturity. What exactly do you mean by mature? If you mean OS, Compiler, Application availability I'd definitely say opteron. If you mean units shipped, again I'd say opteron. If you mean something else I'm not sure. -- Bill Broadley Computational Science and Engineering UC Davis

WASHINGTON — The Senate is moving forward on a compromise bill to help veterans avoid long waits to see a doctor and make it easier to fire administrators who falsify records to cover up long wait times.
Hopes for a vote as soon as Thursday have dimmed, but senators said they would press ahead on a measure to address an uproar over veterans' health care following allegations that veterans have died while waiting to see a Veterans Affairs doctor.
Senators had wanted to pass the bill before Friday's 70th anniversary of the Allied invasion of Europe in World War II. Up to a dozen senators were expected to attend the D-Day ceremonies in France.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., chairman of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee, had said Wednesday he was "cautiously optimistic" that a vote could be held Thursday.
Sanders and Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona were leading negotiations on the bill, holding two closed-door meetings Wednesday to iron out details.
But a spokesman for Sanders said Wednesday night that talks would continue Thursday, making an immediate vote unlikely. Senators fly to France on Thursday evening.
"Chairman Sanders held productive discussions today with Sen. McCain and others about how to provide high-quality health care to veterans in a timely manner," Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs said.
Sanders "hopes to reach an agreement to take before the full Senate as soon as possible," Briggs added.
Talks on the bill were resuming as the Obama administration's new veterans affairs chief visits the Phoenix hospital at the center of allegations that veterans died while waiting to see a VA doctor. Acting VA Secretary Sloan Gibson was scheduled to tour the Phoenix hospital and speak with officials there. A former clinic director has said up to 40 veterans may have died while awaiting treatment in Phoenix.
Sanders, a self-described socialist, acknowledged that he and McCain, the 2008 Republican nominee for president, make an unlikely pair, but he was upbeat about the prospects of quickly reaching a deal.
"McCain is serious, I'm serious" and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is serious about fixing problems at the VA, Sanders said.
McCain was less optimistic about a bill being passed this week. "I am not predicting anything," he told reporters Wednesday.
The main stumbling block appeared to be over when and under what circumstances veterans could turn to doctors and other providers outside the 1,700-facility VA system for what is largely free care for them.
The two lead negotiators couldn't agree on how to define it. Sanders said the primary issue was waiting times, while McCain said it was giving veterans a choice beyond the VA for receiving care.
A bill sponsored by Sanders would allow veterans who can't get timely appointments with VA doctors to go to community health centers, military hospitals or private doctors.
McCain would rather let veterans who can't get a VA appointment within 30 days or who live more than 40 miles from a VA hospital or clinic go to any doctor who participates in Medicare or the military's TRICARE program. He complained that Sanders' approach "has the VA bureaucrat decide whether that veteran should get the health care of their choice."
An interim report by the VA's inspector general said veterans in Phoenix wait an average of 115 days for a first appointment — five times longer than the 24-day average the hospital had reported. The inspector general said at least 42 VA facilities nationwide were under investigation, including the Phoenix VA hospital, where a former clinic director said as many as 40 veterans may have died while awaiting treatment.
Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Fla., chairman of the House VA panel, said Sanders' approach did not do enough to hold senior officials at the VA accountable for falsified waiting lists and other problems. The House last month passed a bill by Miller that would allow the VA to immediately fire as many as 450 regional executives and hospital administrators for poor performance.
Those officials are largely responsible for reports of falsified records and secret waiting lists, since many received bonuses based on seeming adherence to VA guidelines on patient wait times, Miller said.
"Some VA health officials are so driven in their quest for performance bonuses, promotions and power that they are willing to lie, cheat and put the health of the veterans they were hired to serve at risk," he said. "These are not people who deserve a second chance. They deserve a swift exit from federal employment and possibly an entrance to federal prison."

Greetings and salutations, Rookies! This month's theme is Power. You know, like money. Or fame. Or…that Kanye West song? Dammit, today is May first and I don't even know. What is POWER? From whencehence does one's POWER cometh, eth? Let us take a walk to the mountains, each one topped with a wise old person with a beard, and find out.
"Oh, sweetie! We can help you!" I am warmly welcomed once I've climbed mountain #1 by four young women named Charlotte, Miranda, Samantha, and Carrie. They seem happy and powerful to me. They have nice shoes and healthy hair and the two kick out in opposite directions whenever they laugh and drink their Cosmopolitans. (The magazine. Like, they stuff copies of the magazine Cosmopolitan into martini glasses and slurp the paper.)
"What is the meaning of POWER?" I beg.
"Babies!" cries Charlotte.
"The study of law!" suggests Miranda, throwing a gavel into the air and letting it land somewhere on the ground below.
"The female reproductive system!" slurps Samantha, throwing an ovary up into the air and letting it land somewhere on the ground below.
Carrie doesn't respond. Instead, she rises, pours pig's blood on herself, and starts looking at us all very intensely. The mountain begins to slowly crumble beneath our butts. This is sad to me because they have nice chairs, and my butt had gotten really comfy.
"Ugh, she always does this!" cries Charlotte. "What a silly gal, I heart her so much!" On that last word, her voice cracks for the 28th time in that sentence, and her head bursts into flames.
Samantha is trying to down the last of the Cosmopolitans, and Miranda has already evaporated into a handful of orange dust. I begin to run down the mountain before I, too, become a floating aura of what may or may not be female empowerment. But first I must get my answer. "Carrie! Wait! So the meaning of Power is revenge?" But it seems to be too late. She is now levitating into the heavens, as a woman who calls herself Sarah Jessica Parker appears out of nowhere and booms in a narrator's voice so that all below can hear, "That night, we learned something special about power. Something something poop something. At least we will always have each other! Shoes!!!!!"
That was no help. I climb mountain #2, to find four other young women sitting against a picture-day backdrop with a New York City skyline painted on it. They tell me their names are Hannah, Marnie, Jessa, and Shoshana. "Do you know what Power means?" I ask. They shake their heads and look sad. "Maybe we will find out in season two," Hannah says. "Oh my god, you got renewed for a second season?" I ask. "Yes," she answers. I do a happy little jig, and am so thrilled that I don't even realize that I've fallen off the mountain completely.
At the top of mountain #3 is a college-age Tina Fey with a couple guys from her school. They tell me the name of this here spot is Old Rag Mountain, and Tina whispers in my ear that she climbed it because she thought she would get with one of the dudes, with no luck.*
"That sucks and I'm sorry," I say. "But do you know the meaning of Power?"
"Not now, no. But one day, I will grow up and write Mean Girls and create 30 Rock and be Tina Fey, and then I will be the biggest badass ever, and have lots of power."
"And what will it all MEEEEEEEEEAN?" I need to know, and I'm tired, and my butt still hurts.
"Technically, it will be granted to me by other people. I will show that I deserve it, however, by first finding power within myself."
"That's deep," I say.
"I know," says Tina Fey. "Will you be my best friend?"
"I'm sorry, but I just don't have the time. I need to go find power within myself," I say, "or something." Tina Fey is very sad that we are not friends. Poor Tina Fey.
Thinking about what Tina Fey said, I kneel by a pond down on ground level and stare into my reflection. I furrow my brow and adjust my jawline so that I look as if I could be a politician, or an actor playing a politician, or the politician character's right-hand dog/best friend. But what stares back at me is not 2008-era Kevin Bacon, or a beagle with surprisingly strong comic timing. It is the "Blister in the Sun" scene from My So-Called Life. The American Beauty scene from Freaks and Geeks. The "Dancing on My Own" scene from Girls. Holy shit, private bedroom-dancing scenes are the best kind of scene EVER. I go home, put on some Madonna, and jam out by myself.
In all seriousness though, and without sounding like, LET'S TALK ABOUT MY STORY OF PERSONAL TRIUMPH—yesterday I was having a shitty day in what felt like a series of many shitty weeks. After the inevitable bathroom-stall sobfest/pity party, I spent my next class writing instead of taking notes. As I was venting, I ended up demanding to know why I was letting dumb things bother me and make me feel bad, and insisting on being tired of it and getting over it, and it slowly became a kind of personal manifesto, and then on the way to my next class I thought of that scene from Girls and how when Hannah is throwing her own pity party, she could have listened to sad acoustic music, but chose ROBYN instead. So I put "Dancing on My Own" on my iPod and felt like I was GLIDING through the halls and kind of smiled to myself on accident before I realized I looked mildly disturbed and then I just kept smiling anyway. And I felt way better, and OK with myself, and with most things.
What's nice about the kind of power you create for yourself when you're able to change the way you feel about a situation instead of waiting for the situation to change for you is that you can't ever get nostalgic for that feeling, the feeling of having power over how you decide to deal with something. You can't ever miss it the way you miss the happiness that comes from nice memories of concerts or summer or vacations or times with friends or whatever, because it's really just you being you. Once you reach that mindset, you can always come back to it. And knowing that made me feel like the most powerful, in-control-of-my-life-so-eff-y'all person since Some Evil Dictator Person.
Different outlets work for different people, and I personally was happy that pure thinking and writing got me there. This month, we're gonna talk about inner-power-searchers of all kinds, but the ones from the '80s especially, when there were SO MANY GOOD ONES. Not just Madonna, but, like, I think John Hughes made coming to terms with your own weaknesses and really owning them and turning them into personal power a somewhat radical act. Leeann is also writing about a few good-lookin' subcultures of the time who will inspire your pants off. Then we have lots of '80s angst-dwellers like Morrissey, who always makes me feel like I can listen to depresso lyrics set to a somewhat upbeat tune and in that way kind of accept feelings of angst and anxiousness. Power is also a weird, scary, funny part of high school politics, so get ready for HEATHERS REFERENCES GALORE.
I really hope you like all of it. Plus, omg, SCHOOL IS ALMOST OVER, so we have all the more reason to bounce around to Culture Club as we write about prom.
* If you get this reference to Tina Fey's essay in her book Bossypants, consider yourself a member of the culturally elite. P.S. THIS FOOTNOTE IS A REFERENCE TOO AND I AM META.

sparrowandvine necesitaba un nuevo diseño de impreso o envases y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 40 diseños de 13 diseñadores freelance.
The Ox
I'm a small wine producer and retailer, selling a range of my own brand wines in my little retail shop and also to select restaurants and other retailers.
The wines I sell are all typical of the region in which they were grown. All offer excellent value in fresh, modern, dry styles.
The Ox will be exclusively a red wine brand and will be sourced from the Barossa Valley in South Australia. The wines are rich, full bodied, strong and hearty wines. They are packaged in a premium tall, bordeaux shaped bottle.
The target audience is predominantly male aged 22 - 50+ though I don't want to alienate women either! This is a style of red wine that is a good match for steak and other red meats. If the label can allude to this that is a plus.
The label needs to be a single label (probably wraparound style) with all necessary information on it as per below.
The brand name of the wine is The Ox.
The region and wine name. eg: Barossa Valley Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2008.
In small font (about 5) there needs to be legal text eg: "12% alc, 7.1 std drinks, pres 220 added. Wine of Australia 750ml"
Bottled for Sparrow and Vine Pty Ltd
72 Hordern Street, Newtown NSW 2042
0409 467456
Will also need space for a barcode.
Also need additional text of approximately 60 words for a wine description/ story.
Must be a single label that would have main name and brand on one half with the other half containing additional text. (eg: 80/90mm high, 140mm wide).
What we don't want:
No gold, no silver. Needs to be CMYK colours.
No images of grapes, bottles, vine leaves or other cliched wine images.
The files need to be editable.
Typeface needs to be clear, not floral, old fashioned script but rather something clean and modern.
Feel free to use images, illustrations, strong colours and to be creative!
Final artwork as EPS files or .ai saved as illustrator 3 or earlier. I'll need to add description text to individual wines.
Please don't hesitate to contact me directly if you have further questions.

Coach Jim Harbaugh quickly shot down speculation that the San Francisco 49ers might turn back to Randy Moss in the wake of Michael Crabtree's Achilles tendon surgery. The coaching staff intends to give the 49ers' young wide receivers a chance instead.
Specifically, the 49ers will throw 2012 first-round draft pick A.J. Jenkins, 2013 fourth-rounder Quinton Patton and former undrafted free agent Ricardo Lockette into the mix opposite Anquan Boldin.
"We'll put Jenkins, Patton, Ricardo Lockette at the same position and let them compete and emerge," Harbaugh said Friday on KGMZ-FM. "The good news is somebody will emerge because they have to. ... I very much anticipate that will happen."
Patton was productive at small-school Louisiana Tech, but he appeared to be "nowhere close to being ready" at rookie camp. Although Harbaugh is "fired up about" perennial offseason all-star Lockette, Jenkins should be viewed as the heavy favorite. He has a clear edge in pedigree, and the 49ers reportedly are expecting "big things" after a redshirt rookie season.
If Jenkins does win out, he will have to fend off veterans Mario Manningham and Kyle Williams once they recover from their respective anterior cruciate ligament surgeries. There's a good chance the 49ers will end up using a rotation of players opposite Boldin by the time Crabtree finally returns.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
The Palestinian Authority's mission to the United Nations last week filed an official complaint over a growing Jewish presence on and claims to Jerusalem's Temple Mount.
Riyad Mansour, the PA's observer at the UN, said that regular visits to the Temple Mount by Jewish worshippers and Israeli officials were "provocative" and could further enrage the entire Muslim Arab world.
Mansour took special exception to the Israeli Knesset's recent discussions about fully extending Israeli sovereignty over the Temple Mount, which is Judaism's holiest site. The Palestinian official insisted that such action would violate all international laws and norms, and would destabilize the region.
The Palestinian position has been backed up by the Arab League, which labeled the recent Knesset debates over the Temple Mount as an "Israeli attack" on what they see as an exclusively Muslim shrine.
In the current (March) issue of Israel Today, we take a look at how the Israeli government is not only aware of how the Muslims are abusing their power on the Temple Mount, but is actually complicit in this tragedy, not wanting to further inflame a volatile situation.

The demark project on Github does three things:
- partial automatic conversion from wikispaces to confluence formats
- xmlrpc updates of confluence format to dev.clojure.org
- source control of the input and output data (since automation is partial we may need this)
You can view the work in progress in the Scratch Space.
- Stop rendering a top <h1>, which duplicates the top level Confluence infers from the page title?
- this begs the question of change the page names from url_like_names to "URL Like Names"...
- port the CSS from the old site
- may be easier to rewrite
- want to take advantage of Confluence's tree display in the left pane
- review and hand-edit things broken by automatic conversion (possibly modifying and re-running the automation)
- sometimes automation mangles links whose internals are re-confusable with markup (e.g. top of other_functions)
- set appropriate space permissions
- edit ability for everyone on Clojure/core team?
- figure out how to make a Confluence space act as a top-level URL
- final signoff from Rich
- switch DNS
- decide how to continue to use demark (if at all) once conversion is complete.
- maintain git source control of content?
- allow git-based update of content?

There are so many different ways to fully embrace the dog days of summer. One is to fire up the grill and start cooking. Another is to keep that blender full of ice.
Here, we're talking basketball. The season openers are still more than two months away, but it's never too early to look ahead. So here are my Summer Dreaming choices for 2014-15 Defensive Player of the Year.
Send me your picks.
Serge Ibaka, Thunder — If you don't think he's a game-changer, then you weren't paying attention last spring when the Serge Protector missed the first two games of the Western Conference finals and the Spurs were able to run a virtual lay-up line through the heart of the OKC defense. When Ibaka returned from a calf injury, all of a sudden it wasn't so easy for Tony Parker and his friends to get to the basket and the series was quickly tied up 2-2. Ibaka protects the rim, contests jumpers and puts the bite into the Thunder. He's continuing to blossom as an offensive force, but it's his defense that is the glue of the Thunder. He led the league in total blocks for the fourth straight time last season and has been voted to the All-Defensive first team three years in a row. It's finally his turn to get the big hardware.
Anthony Davis, Pelicans — Was it really fair to bring him into the league carrying comparisons to the legendary Bill Russell? Well, maybe if you watch the highlight video from last season. With coach Monty Williams taking the shackles off his playing time, A.D. showed many of the skills that made him the No. 1 pick in the 2012 draft. For all that he was able to do with the ball around the basket, it was the defensive plays that dropped your jaw to the floor. He guarded the paint. He cut off baseline drives. Davis seemed to swoop in from out of nowhere to reject even 3-point attempts from the corner. No place on the court was safe from the ballhawking shot-blocker. Now with rim-protecting center Omer Asik at his back, Davis might really cut loose challenging shots. That's just scary.
Dwight Howard, Rockets — He practically owned this award, winning it three straight times from 2009-2011 in Orlando, but that was before everything went south with the Magic and he had to overcome back problems and questions about commitment to the game. Howard arrived for his first season in Houston fit and ready to re-establish himself. By the end of 2013-14 there were no more questions about his health and desire to get back to the old form. Howard's 2.83 blocks per game led the league as he returned to being a stopper anyplace around the basket. He's got 10 years of NBA experience but is still just 28. There's no reason that the Rockets can't count on him to be the defensive anchor in their push to be true contenders in the Western Conference.
Joakim Noah, Bulls — Defense can't always be measured by numbers and quantified with stats. As the 2013-14 Defensive Player of the Year, Noah blocked just 1.4 shots per game. But he had a nose to go after every shot at the rim, was firm in guarding the pick-and-roll and with his sheer energy and physical force was as disruptive as a twister to any opposing offense. He's hungry, he's relentless, he's challenging the ball anywhere on the court, he's the epitome of the attitude that coach Tom Thibodeau wants and is at the heart of the Bulls defense that ranked No. 2 in the league last season. You can't ever ignore Noah. He simply won't let you.
DeAndre Jordan, Clippers — The Clippers' big man got special attention from the boss in coach Doc Rivers' first season in L.A. and it paid off tremendously. Rivers expected more from Jordan, demanded more … and usually got it. Jordan's sixth NBA season produced dramatic improvement as he accepted responsibility to be a core performer. He finished second in the NBA in blocked shots per game (2.54) and third in rebounding (12.5). One of the main reasons that point guard Chris Paul can spend so much time jumping passing lanes looking for steals and the Clippers can be so aggressive on the perimeter is because they know they've got Jordan watching their backs with those long, lethal arms.

By ,
Published November 29, 2015
A former California fire battalion chief who eluded authorities for more than two weeks has been arrested in the stabbing death of his girlfriend, Sacramento County Sheriff's Sgt. Lisa Bowman said in a statement Friday.
She could not immediately provide additional information on the arrest of Orville "Moe" Fleming.
Fleming had been wanted since the body of 26-year-old Sarah June Douglas was found May 1 inside the south Sacramento home they had shared for the past two years.
Authorities say Fleming, 55, had considerable outdoor skills, was familiar with California's mountains because of his career as a wildland firefighter, and had keys to state fire facilities throughout the state.
He was fired from his job as a battalion chief and instructor with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection after failing to show up at work for a week after the slaying.
"We are pleased that this search is over and the Sheriff's Office has apprehended Mr. Fleming," said Daniel Berlant, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. "We will continue to support the sheriff and the district attorney in any way we can as the judicial process continues."
Investigators previously said Fleming moved in with Douglas after meeting her as an escort who advertised on the Internet.
Fleming filed for divorce from his wife in Fresno County Superior Court in October, according to online records, but the case has not been finalized.
Fleming's estranged wife, Meagan Fleming, had sought a protective order against Douglas last fall, alleging Douglas was harassing her and her adult children in an attempt to get money from Orville Fleming. The request was denied a day later without being considered, when a judge said Meagan Fleming had not properly filled out the required form.
There was no answer at the telephone number listed for Meagan Fleming's home on Friday, and she did not immediately respond to an email.
Orville Fleming vanished after he abandoned his official California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection pickup in a Sacramento suburb before sheriff's investigators learned of Douglas' death.
Investigators received hundreds of tips, including unsubstantiated sightings as distant as Oregon and Los Angeles.

Neo-Confederate Rand Paul Aide A Daily Caller Contributor, Fox Regular
"Southern Avenger" Jack Hunter Also Helped Write Heritage President Jim DeMint's Book
Blog ››› ››› ERIC HANANOKI & BEN DIMIERO
Jack Hunter, a congressional aide to Sen. Rand Paul with a history of "neo-Confederate" and "pro-secessionist" views, has produced dozens of articles and video commentaries for The Daily Caller and appeared as what one Fox Business host termed a "regular" guest on that network. He also helped then-Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), currently the president of The Heritage Foundation, write his most recent book.
The conservative Washington Free Beacon reported today that Hunter, a "close" Rand Paul aide who also co-wrote the Kentucky Republican's 2011 book, "spent years working as a pro-secessionist radio pundit and neo-Confederate activist ... Hunter was a chairman in the League of the South, which 'advocates the secession and subsequent independence of the Southern States from this forced union and the formation of a Southern republic.'"
Free Beacon also quoted Hunter's South Carolina radio commentary under the pseudonym "The Southern Avenger" in which he expressed adoration for Lincoln assassin John Wilkes Booth, indignation that white Americans are treated to a "racial double standard," and opposition to Spanish-speaking immigrants. Hunter reportedly "told the Free Beacon that he no longer holds many of these views," including his pro-Lincoln assassin views, but "declined to say that he no longer supports secession."
Free Beacon further reported that "[d]uring public appearances, Hunter often wore a mask on which was printed a Confederate flag" and included the following picture:
While Free Beacon's report was critical of Hunter and his association with Sen. Paul, it did not mention Hunter's ties to The Daily Caller, Fox, and DeMint. The piece instead mentioned that Hunter had written for "paleoconservative websites such as the American Conservative and Taki's Magazine," and even quoted Jim Antle, editor of the Daily Caller News Foundation, who commented on Rand Paul's efforts to "overcome that perception" that he is too close to fringe elements.
The Daily Caller
Hunter's Daily Caller archive lists more than 50 pieces from him between August 2011 and May 2013, including numerous editions of a slickly-produced, Daily Caller-branded video commentary series, "The Deal with Jack Hunter." His most recent Daily Caller piece was published on May 6 and headlined, "Rand Paul shatters left-right paradigm, can help grow GOP." In his written and video commentaries, Hunter regularly promoted the candidacy of Ron Paul, whose 2012 presidential campaign he worked for as an "official campaign blogger."
In a February 2012 Daily Caller video, Hunter argued "that by firing Pat Buchanan, MSNBC, Media Matters and the Color of Change have undermined free speech." Daily Caller has identified Hunter as "known by his radio moniker the 'Southern Avenger,'" and having appeared as "a frequent guest on Fox Business," and collaborating with Sens. Paul and DeMint on their books.
With the exception of the May 2013 piece, Hunter's work for the Daily Caller subsided in August 2012, when he joined Rand Paul's congressional staff. Hunter has continued to write regularly for The American Conservative since that time.
Daily Caller contributor Matt Lewis wrote a post after the publication of the Free Beacon story criticizing Paul's association with Hunter, writing: "It's one thing to have an aide with baggage (even very bad baggage), but the larger problem here is that this also speaks to credibility and honesty -- to Paul's fundamental character." Lewis did not mention that Hunter has written for his site.
UPDATE: In an article published shortly after this post, The Daily Caller reported on the controversy over Hunter's remarks and acknowledged that he "has also contributed opinion pieces to The Daily Caller."
Fox Business
According to a search of the Nexis database, Hunter appeared as a guest on Fox Business' Freedom Watch more than twenty times between March 14, 2011, and February 13, 2012. Freedom Watch was hosted by Fox News senior judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano and was cancelled in February 2012.
Hunter often used his appearances to promote Ron Paul's presidential campaign. In one appearance, Hunter criticized progressives for "want[ing] to tie concepts like nullification or even secession, if you wanted to go that radical a route, to slavery, racism, segregation."
Napolitano, who is close friends with the Paul family, introduced him at times as a "Freedom Watch regular" and a "good friend of the show." On-screen text explained he was "sometimes known as the 'Southern Avenger.'" Fox also identified Hunter as a "Daily Caller contributor" and writer:
Jim DeMint
Hunter helped write Jim DeMint's most recent 2012 book, Now or Never: Saving America from Economic Collapse. DeMint writes in the acknowledgements page: "I would like to thank my editor and collaborator, Jack Hunter, who contributed his writing skills and passion for freedom to make this book more readable and insightful." Hunter also wrote a chapter introduction in the book. The book features a foreword by Sen. Rand Paul. DeMint is currently the head of the Heritage Foundation, which was recently forced to fire Jason Richwine, the co-author of its immigration study, after past racist writings were revealed.
Hunter's website, southernavenger.com, includes the graphic "As Seen On" and images that include Fox Business and The Daily Caller.
In February 2013, Glenn Beck hosted Hunter on his TV program as one of "three prominent libertarians" there to discuss "how people who believe in peace and freedom can come together and push the country back towards the Constitution and away from big government."

Whitnum says she's running for governor
Treated as a pariah by her party's standard bearers, with whom she has engaged in several well-publicized, election-year confrontations over the U.S. alliance with Israel, Democrat Lee Whitnum is once again embracing the role of anti-establishment candidate.
This time, it's in the governor's race.
Whitnum, 53, who is from Greenwich, is seeking the state's highest office, according to the latest incarnation of her political website. No one else in her party has declared in the Democratic nominating contest, which many political insiders expect to be an easy tune-up for incumbent Gov. Dannel P. Malloy before the general election.
Malloy is expected to announce his bid for re-election in May at the end of the current legislative session.
As of the close of business Monday, Whitnum, a four-time candidate for office, had yet to file organizational paperwork with the state Elections Enforcement Commission.
Last year, she was charged with second-degree stalking, second-degree harassment and disorderly conduct after prosecutors say she contacted the judge presiding over her acrimonious divorce in state Superior Court in Stamford at the judge's home. Whitnum said in a news release and telephone message last weekend that the charges were dropped. Court records show the charges are still pending, however.
Whitnum was unavailable for comment on Monday.
In 2008, Malloy publicly admonished Whitnum for her harsh criticism of Israel and characterized her comments as anti-Semitic. Whitnum, in turn, unsuccessfully sued Malloy for slander.
To protect himself against further lawsuits from Whitnum that he characterized as frivolous, Malloy resorted to taking out a court order that requires Whitnum to show cause in future legal action.
A spokesman for Malloy directed questions on Whitnum's candidacy to the Connecticut Democrats, who declined to comment.
During the Democratic nominating contest for U.S. Senate in 2012 , Whitnum drew a stinging rebuke from Democratic Chairwoman Nancy DiNardo after she called then-U.S. Rep. and fellow candidate Chris Murphy, D-Conn., a "whore" during a televised debate.
Whitnum emerged on the political scene in 2008 when she lost by a landslide to Jim Himes in the 4th Congressional District primary, which vaulted Himes to a general election upset of GOP incumbent Christopher Shays.
Two years later, she resurfaced as a Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, but showed up at the state GOP convention by mistake and missed the voting.
Staff writer Daniel Tepfer contributed to this report.

30 Funniest Firefighting Jokes
Various Online
March 09, 2010
Fire Chiefs
A married woman received some bad news. Her husband had been in an automobile accident and was brain dead. The doctor told her that there was some good news, though. They had perfected their brain transplant technique and that she was fortunate because there were three fresh brains in the brain bank from which to choose.
Apparently, a large explosion had killed a firefighter, a captain and a chief. Having insurance, she requested the cost for each of the brains. The firefighter's brain was $10,000, the captain's brain was $50,000 and the chief was a MILLION DOLLARS! Curious, she asked why the chief's brain was so much more expensive.
"Because it has never been used," replied the Doctor.


text: two ideas: a. injection lock the crystal oscillator on the soundcard (assuming it has a separate crystal for sampling/ADC processing). If all sound cards in the cluster are the same model/version then they could all be run/locked from one source. This might be as simple as an external clock signal feed via a series resistor/capacitor to one pin of the existing crystal on the sound card. b. Use multichannel sound cards and put a timing signal on one channel. Assuming the sampling on each card is driven by the same clock (likely if all one chip) then I'd think it would then be possible to align the data from multiple sound cards in software using the timing channel from each card. This does not assume that the cards sample each channel at the same time, just that there is a consistant pattern in the how a card samples it's multiple channels. It does "waste" some channels.
