{WOMENSENEWS}-- Throughout U.S. history, "states' rights" was a convenient code for racism.
Conservative politicians railed that legal changes in favor of African Americans were a violation of "states' rights." Southerners especially contended that their state legislatures had a right to laws that discriminated against people born with the wrong skin color.
Yet rarely is the phrase states' rights seen also as a code to legitimize the violation of women's rights, even though every woman gains or loses the right to make decisions about her own body when she crosses state lines.
Just last week, North Dakota lawmakers banned the termination of pregnancies that are beyond six weeks--when a woman barely knows whether or not she has missed her period.
Because men cannot get pregnant, such laws do not apply to them, and the conflict between women's rights and states' rights continues.
The legal point should have been resolved by the 14th and 15th Amendments in the 1860s, but a century passed before the majority of Americans agreed that the federal government should overrule racially discriminatory state laws. A hundred years after the Civil War ended in 1865, nonwhites finally saw the promise of true liberty with the passage of the 1965 Civil Rights Act.
While almost everyone today sees states' rights as an antiqued philosophy, astonishingly few see that it also is key to understanding women's rights. Historians don't teach it that way, and so this vast aspect of U.S. history goes unacknowledged.
From the nation's beginning, though, statehood meant a step backwards for most women. In the colonial era of the 1600s, women freely went to court and argued their own cases. But under new state governments, many women lost their right to sue.
In most states, a married woman literally had no rights. She could not file for divorce; only her husband could do that--and he rarely had any incentive to do so, as her inherited property became his. Even her earned income legally was his.
States also gave automatic child custody to fathers, another huge disincentive for divorce. Fathers could name someone other than the mother in their wills as custodians for children, empowering an outsider with decision-making authority for a child's education or even residence.
Nor did staying unmarried entitle a woman to full citizenship, even while she was compelled to pay full taxes.
Protesting Violations
For decades, women protested against this violation of the principle of "no taxation without representation." Lucy Stone allowed a New Jersey sheriff to sell her personal goods rather than pay taxes to a government that did not represent her, and other women did likewise.
In Connecticut, sisters Julia and Abby Smith refused to pay taxes on their Gastonbury farm because they could not vote. The court sold their cattle to a male neighbor and newspapers treated "the Gastonbury Cows" as laughable cartoon material.
Women always assumed that they had the right to petition, however, and after feminists organized petition drives in the 1850s, Northern legislatures began to change property laws. Southern states lagged, and in 20th century Louisiana, even a woman's clothes legally belonged to her husband; she was not free to sell them.
State law also refused to recognize a woman as a witness. A New Orleans orphanage lost the bequest that a donor intended because only women had signed the document testifying to her intentions. Had those women brought an illiterate male janitor into the room to make his mark, the will would have been upheld.
Far into the 20th century, states routinely excluded women from tax-supported colleges and universities, especially law and medical schools. A Michigan woman had to go to court for the right to tend a bar, as state law forbade female bartenders. As late as 1972, Idaho gave men automatic status as executors of family estates; in Reed v. Reed, a woman had to go to the Supreme Court to be allowed to substitute for her mentally incompetent brother. Inheritance law in many farm states gave sons more power than widows who built the farm.
Female Jurors Forbidden
Most states long excluded women from juries, meaning that a female defendant was not tried by her peers--and imposing a real discouragement on female witnesses and lawyers. In 1961, The U.S. Supreme Court upheld state law in Hoyt v. Florida, ruling that automatic exemption of women from jury lists was constitutional. Eighteen other states had similar laws that allowed women to serve, but only if they took special steps to volunteer. At least three states at the time barred women completely.
Griswold v. Connecticut (1965) often is cited today as the bulwark of personal privacy--something that conservatives claim to value--but the case really was about women, and specifically their right to birth control. Connecticut, with its large Catholic population, banned the sale of contraceptives, but after the married Estelle Griswold had the courage to pursue the case, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the state law.
Massachusetts lawmakers tried to get around the ruling by restricting sales to individuals who could prove they were married, but in Eisenstadt v. Baird (1972), the Supreme Court allowed contraceptive purchase without regard to marital status.
Would state legislatures today approve laws that require nonwhites to give up the right to eat in public restaurants based on state borders? Would any man surrender any right because he moved from South to North Dakota?
That is the framework in which these important decisions should be made. And just as in the past, states' rights is a code for fascism and legal terrorism, and for keeping the victim in her place.

Raptors Lose and Win In The Same Night
People seem to be all caught up in the fact the Raptors have been winning but paying little attention to how they are winning and who they are actually beating. Instead dreaming some pretty unrealistic dreams of what this team could accomplish in the post season.
Look closer and you see the cracks in this team and the fact their defensive play which becomes vital come the post-season has been taking a dramatic decline. The Raptors despite winning the Division did slip to fourth in the conference and a match-up with the Nets in the first round.
This is De-Ja-Vu to the Raptors first division title when Jason Kidd, Vince Carter and crew faced the Raptors in the first round. In the end the Raptors were dismantled by the Nets and lost the series in 6 games with Jose Calderon committing a turnover to lose game 6.
Kidd now coaches the Nets and they call Brooklyn home and not New Jersey. They have battled back from a poor start to the season and have been playing some excellent basketball to even get in a race with Raptors for the Division Title. The most impressive thing on the Nets resume is a season sweep of the Miami Heat a team the Raptors have failed to beat ever since James and Bosh arrived in Miami.
Some fans are just satisfied with the Raptors unexpected success and are just happy to be back in the post season. So are the folks at MLSE who have rewarded fans with about a 6-7% hike of ticket prices for next season. They want your money long before Kyle Lowry has decided to stay or go as well.
As I have consistently said I am thrilled for DeMar DeRozan and Amir Johnson to get to experience the playoffs here in Toronto. They have earned that right going through some just terrible years to get here. I just don't like their chances as the Raptors are far removed from playing their best basketball of the season.
The Raptors are labelling this playoff run "Northern Uprising" but the reality is more likely it will be just another disappointment unless some things change between now and the start of the playoffs. The Raptors have been trying to outscore people and not stop people of late. That is not the way the playoffs work.
It would not surprise me to see the Raptors fail to make it out of the first round. A match-up with the Nets would likely make that a reality. Even playing the Bobcats would not make me feel all that good given the Raptors failure to perform against this team over the years. The Wizards is the obvious match-up the Raptors would be a legit favourite in. John Wall in his first experience in post-season could be a tough task to deal with.
In the end this was an unexpected and great season for the Raptors compared to their lacklustre history. Still even if this team gets the most wins in franchise history which is very likely with only having to win two of their last 3 games against the Bucks, Pistons and Knicks. I still would not consider them the best Raptors team in history. Vince Carter's 47 win team was better than this group. You can even argue Bosh's group that won the other Division Title might be as well.
What the real story will be is what happens next season and can this team maintain and improve in an Eastern Conference and Division that will both most certainly improve around them. The Raptors I said back in January at best would get to the second round and nothing has changed my mind to think anything more than that.
I totally understand why long suffering fans just want to enjoy the moment and this return to the post-season. I just don't see the Raptors as any real contender or threat and when they are that I will get excited. To me this is just something I have seen before and really doesn't get me all that excited.
Miracles can happen I suppose but when you have never beat the team that will win the Eastern Conference since 2010 it is hard to imagine some magical run to the finals. Heck the way the Raptors are playing of late it is hard to imagine them surviving the first round.
Life is about timing and most of the time the Raptors timing has been terrible in their 19 year history. This just might be the latest example of it.
I leave you now to rose coloured glasses and dreams of grandeur about the post-season. While I get told for the millionth time this season what a negative person I am for being realistic and honest about my feelings and thoughts on this basketball team.
I will give this group this though they will go down swinging because that is something they have done all year. In the playoffs though given their play of late I am not all that optimistic that alone will be enough.

James I completely agree with everything in this post. While I too am excited about a return to the post-season, I am not expecting much from it aside from experience for the players. I know everyone wants a match-up with the Wiz, as do I, but with the loss against the Knicks they didn't help that cause one bit. My biggest fear for a match-up against the Nets is how the whistle will be blown. With the vets and championship experience on the Nets, as well as their great home play since Jan, I feel the Raps would be even lucky to get this series to a game 7. This team has more often than naught gotten themselves down in games early only to fight back with ferocious 4th qtrs which led to them winning many games. While I admire the fight this team has in them I just don't see it being enough in the playoffs if they don't pick up on their defence and stop relying on the 3 ball so much. It great when we make a lot of 3's but they also can shoot themselves right out of games sometimes. If we did beat whomever and advance I would be over the moon with joy at this surprise season. If we lose, or worse even, get swept, I would still choose this result over a losing season hoping for a top draft pick. Here's wishing the Raps the best of luck...the spotlight is on them and hopefully "Canada's" team will start getting a little more respect from both media and fans from both sides of the border!!!ReplyDelete
Well said, I was making comments as far back as January as the Raptors not playing a style of basketball that will translate to the playoffs. It is not like I want to be right but I am realistic about things. This team compared to the Carter team in 2000-2001 is not even close in my opinion. They could make an argument they are better than the Bosh Group in 06-07. Hey if I am wrong I will be happy for Amir and DeMar because they have been through a lot of garbage to get to this point.ReplyDelete

I am trying to produce some text after the "References" heading, but before the numbered references themselves. I had read that using the natbib package and the command
\bibpreamble{...insert preamble here...} should do just that, however, I cannot get this to work.
My (abridged) code is as follows:
\bibpreamble{\ \\
For an in-depth discussion on... see
\cite{Baikie1988}, and for ... see
\cite{Cardona1978, Ley1979}.}
This produces the References heading, the numbered references then this block of text at the end. Placing it before the
\bibliographystyle{} command makes this block of text appear before the References heading. It is as if the command
\bibpreamble{} is not being recognised by LaTeX.
I have also tried using
\newcommand{\bibpreamble}{...text...} and
\renewcommand{\bibpreamble}{...text...} but neither of these change the output. Does anybody have any experience with this kind of problem? I am trying not to introduce too many changes to the structure of my document in order to make this work, so the least "invasive" solution would be preferred.

We never knew that European engineers were in the Miss Cleo business, but it seems so with a new safety technology being developed. This system is pretty simple to explain, really. Radar sensors mounted throughout the car watch for potential crashes. If it senses a crash, 230 milliseconds prior to impact it will deploy a brace-bar to help transfer the energy over a wider area and lessen the damage. On a side-impact test the bar was able to reduce the crash damage by 10 centimeters, which could equal one life. The one question does remain: why not always have the bar intact?
Design constraints, like the need to lower the door window, mean car frames cannot be built with the beam already in place. Like airbags, once activated, the brace would need a trip to the workshop to be reset, but the team are working on making the brace retractable.
Hooray, safety! [New Scientist via Giz]

Hate on holiday: Neo-Nazis mark MLK birthday
Civil rights activist Uriah J. Fields celebrated the birthday of Martin Luther King Jr. on the Downtown Mall with a sign voicing his displeasure with U.S. foreign policy.
Local members of the National Alliance chose another way to commemorate the day, blanketing Charlottesville lawns with fliers disparaging King, touting Abraham Lincoln's opposition to integration, and warning that "no multi-racial society is a healthy one."
Doug Schneider, who lives on Mulberry Street, found three of the fliers in his yard. "It's incredibly insulting when they don't know who lives on this street," he says. "A lot of African Americans live here. That's what horrified me."
Another Mulberry resident, who requested anonymity for fear of being targeted by the flier distributors, says, "I got my Washington Post out of the driveway, and next to it is this horrifying hate thing. I couldn't believe it here in Charlottesville."
The woman, who filed a complaint with the police, says that when she called, "The receptionist said they'd had numerous complaints."
Police report collecting 105 fliers around Johnson Village and Ricky Road behind the Barracks Road Shopping Center. Residents on Rugby Road and in North Downtown also were targeted by the National Alliance.
The neo-Nazi group, headquartered in Hillsboro, West Virginia, was founded by William Pierce, author of The Turner Diaries, a book that inspired Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh.
Pierce died in 2002. His protegé and philosophical heir, Kevin Alfred Strom, 45, lives in Charlottesville, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center. Strom broadcast a radio show on King 10 years ago; in another King show on January 17 he accused the civil rights leader of destroying the fabric of American society. The National Alliance website calls Strom's show, American Dissident Voices, "the premier radio show for Whites."
National Alliance chief operations officer Shaun Walker refuses to confirm Strom's Charlottesville residency, but says Strom does live in Virginia.
Why distribute the fliers in sophisticated– and often liberal– Charlottesville? "It wasn't targeted for any malicious reason," says Walker. "It's an area where white people live, and we wanted to get to them."
A "couple thousand" fliers were distributed by a "proto-group" in Charlottesville, according to Walker. A proto-group consists of three "mature leaders" who have to prove their activism to become an official unit.
"UVA has quite a bit of racial tension," notes Walker, referring to the 2002 incidents in which white UVA students were beaten up by black Charlottesville High School students. "That's what sparked the proto unit."
Walker refuses to discuss national membership numbers, estimated at 1,500 by the Anti-Defamation League, but he says that nationally, the Alliance has 25 official units and about 100 proto-units.
As for African Americans who may have gotten the fliers, Walker says that was purely unintentional. "They're intended to go to white people," he explains. Minorities are not welcome in the group.
And, insists Walker, "If the public knew the truth about King, he wouldn't be a holiday."
Another flier distributed in North Downtown neighborhoods, called "Don't Catch AIDS," links interracial sex and marriage to AIDS.
"We got our biggest media boon with that one in Eagle, Colorado, with Kobe Bryant," says Walker, who estimates several hundred media stories from distributing the flier in the town where the African American basketball star is accused of raping a white woman.
City Councilor Meredith Richards calls the flier "disgusting." When she received the MLK literature in her Johnson Village neighborhood, she threw it away.
"I don't think there's much appeal for that message in this community," she says.
As objectionable as many Charlottesville residents find the National Alliance's white supremacist message, Richards recognizes that it's protected speech.
Schneider, too, acknowledges that the First Amendment gives the National Alliance freedom of speech. "People have the right to express their opinions, but don't throw it in my yard," he protests. "Stand on a street corner or write an article, but don't bring it to my door unless I ask. It's inappropriate to assume I want to hear that."
"Although distasteful, it's not threatening," says city spokesman Maurice Jones. "The worst criminal offense would be littering."
Are police investigating littering charges against National Alliance distributors? "If a citizen saw anyone engaged in this activity, I'm sure the police department would be interested," Jones says.
Local NAACP vice president Cindy Stratton says the organization has received a couple of calls about the fliers. She's not surprised that Charlottesville would be targeted. "It's indicative of the need to continue the work we do," she sighs.
Mayor Maurice Cox sees the flier distribution as "a sad commentary on how much hatred they must harbor in their souls" if they're trying to catch one or two haters "who might be nestled in any community."
Cox doesn't believe the National Alliance will find recruits here. "There's no place for them in this community," he says. "Charlottesville is united in denouncing this kind of hate mongering."
Kevin Strom, a leader of the white supremacist National Alliance, reportedly lives in Charlottesville.

WILLIAMSPORT, PA – The York College wrestling squad had a hard-to-swallow start to the 2014 Budd Whitehill Duals as the #8 Cortland State Red Dragons edged the Spartans 22-19 in come-from-behind fashion on Friday morning in Williamsport, PA.
The Spartans fall to 3-6 overall while the Red Dragons improve to 4-2 with the narrow win.
The Red Dragons got on top early with a pin fall win at 125 but the Spartans came roaring back. Sophomore Trevor Baez Hernandez (Bendersville, Pa./Biglerville) posted an important and dramatic 7-5 sudden victory at 133 pounds, getting York on the board.
Junior Joey Giaccio (Cranford, N.J./Cranford) then notched a 13-2 major decision over Anthony Battista at 141 pounds. Junior Drew Spector (West Deptford, N.J./West Deptford) kept it rolling for the Spartans with a 6-0 win at 149 pounds. Sophomore Adam Kritzer (Herndon, Pa./Line Mountain) posted a 14-6 major decision win at 157 pounds as the Spartan lead grew to 14-6.
The Red Dragons halted the Spartan run with a 6-3 win at 165 and then notched an 11-2 major decision at 174, cutting the Spartan lead to 14-13.
Spartan freshman 184 pounder Nick Zak (Jackson, N.J./Jackson Liberty) picked up a much needed 17-2 tech fall in his match against Brian Bulger as the Spartans led 19-13 with two weight classes left.
Cortland's Joey Giaramita notched a pin fall win at 197, tying the match at 19.
The Red Dragons then finished off the team win with a hard fought 5-3 win over Mike Spencer (Pompton Plains, N.J./Pequannock Townshipwre) in the heavyweight bout.
The Spartans will now face the loser of the Williams/Wisconsin Stevens Point match on Friday afternoon at 2:00 pm.

Get the new Jelly Bean StatusBar on any Android device without waiting for an official 4.1 update!
Jelly Bean StatusBar does not require root access or any special changes so it will work on all Android devices. It basically overlays the stock device status bar providing you with a custom, fully functional status bar of your choice!
But what about your notifications? Don't worry, we have made all incoming notifications appear on the status bar as well so you will still be able to see your notifications!
In order for JellyBean StatusBar to handle all third party notifications, you must give it permission through the Accessibility Manager. This must manually be done through the settings. Go to Settings > Accessibility >JellyBean StatusBar > ON, or contact us for quick support.
What if you don't want to keep receiving notifications from certain applications? Well, JellyBean StatusBar also has a built in ignore list so you can exclude any application's notifications from occurring!
What are the main features of JellyBean StatusBar?
★ Clones the official status bar from Android 4.1
★ Allows support for third party notifications
★ Auto-detection for hidden status bar or screen orientation
★ Task killer safe! Will auto-reboot when killed
★ Smooth gestures for default pull down
★ Settings to choose what content you want to display
★ Exclusion list for unwanted application notifications
★ Notification Counter for repeating notifications
★ 0% battery drain (based on normal device use)
★ Low ram foot print of under 24mb
★ And so much more!
Custom ROM and MIUI Users
JellyBean StatusBar cannot support all of the ROM's available for Android, especially MIUI. Please be respectful of this application and know that this status bar may not work 100% on your ROM. If you find any problems with JellyBean Statusbar, please contact us and we will do our best to fix it!
Need help? Contact us!
Please remember to contact us if you have any questions or comments!!!! We cannot reply to comments on the market. There will be bugs on some devices as developers have to support many different Android devices and screen densities. Please do not post bad comments and ratings about a problem. We will be happy to work you through any issue you may have. Thank you!
Other Information & permissions
Why so many permissions needed!?!? Well, Jellybean StatusBar is a different kind of application. It is designed to constantly run and overlay your stock status bar. It has to receive third party notifications and access information about your device. Without this information, the statbar would not run correctly. Please accept these permissions as we are using each one properly and for a specific use!
Avast reporting as malware!?! No, its not malware. It is the AdNetwork SDK. Avast and some other scanners will mark as a potential risk because of the required permissions. Don't be fooled, use Lookout security. Contact us for more info.
This app will provide a few useful shortcuts on your device in the form of a search bookmark link and home screen icon. This gives us a few cents each time the app is downloaded for the first time and will help us out a lot in developing more apps. If you do not want to use these new tools, you can simply ignore or delete them by dragging the icon to the trashcan and no harm is done (our app remains the same, no need to uninstall it). Thank you!

Update: Added information on issues that I've still yet to solve.
Update: Added information about replacing the custom validator provider to apply a custom error message when a numeric field is not a number (custom validator provider applies validation which is in english, and i wanted to get the values from my custom resource file which is globalized.
My goals were as follows:
- Custom Required validation on the Client and Server side; validation using DataAnnotations (A custom one)
- Localized message (The validation message just says "Required" in the given user's language.)
- Wanted the DataAnnotation attribute to be called JRequire and not require anything passed to the attribute (The normal RequiredAttribute allows you to assign the type of a resource file and the key and therefore localize validation messages. I want to avoid having to repeatedly assign these values: to make the code cleaner and make it quicker to apply)
- Wanted to use jQuery.Validate for client side validation.
- Custom Validation Attribute
- Custom Data Annotations Model Validator
- Registering Validation on the server side
- Registering Validation on the Client side
- Implicit Required Attribute Problem (DateTimes and ints are required for example!)
- Implicit Non-Numeric-Field problem
Custom Validation Attribute
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Field | AttributeTargets.Property, AllowMultiple=false)] public class JRequiredAttribute : ValidationAttribute { public JRequiredAttribute() { ErrorMessageResourceName = "Required"; ErrorMessageResourceType = typeof(ValidationMessages); } public override bool IsValid(object value) { if (value == null) return false; string str = value as string; if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(str)) return false; return true; } }In the constructor I'm specifying the key in the resource file that contains the message. The second line is the type containing the resources. If I have a resource file for a given culture other than english and the user's culture is set to that culture then the message will be shown in that culture instead of in english.
Note that I've set <globalization uiCulture="auto" culture="auto"/> in the configuration file.
The IsValid method is overridden and i return true if there is content and false if there is not. Fairly simple.
Custom Data Annotations Model Validator
public class JRequiredValidator : DataAnnotationsModelValidator { public JRequiredValidator( ModelMetadata metadata, ControllerContext context, JRequiredAttribute attribute) : base(metadata, context, attribute) { } public override IEnumerable GetClientValidationRules() { var rule = new ModelClientValidationRule { ErrorMessage = ValidationMessages.Required, ValidationType = "jrequired" }; return new [] {rule}; } }This piece of code is is used to generate the client side JSON that is written to the page. The client side validation framework can then hook into this information to do the client side validation. Now for registration:
Registering Validation on the server sideThis involved modifying the Global.asax.cs file. After registering the routes do the following:
DataAnnotationsModelValidatorProvider.RegisterAdapter( typeof(JRequiredAttribute), typeof(JRequiredValidator));
Registering Validation on the Client sideI'll assume that you have the following JavaScript files registered on the page:
- jQuery 1.4.*.js
- jquery.validate.js
- The MicrosoftMvcJQueryValidation.js file which can be downloaded from here (Download "ASP.NET MVC 2 Futures" and in explorer expand MvcFutures and you will see the javascript file there)
jQuery.validator.addMethod("jrequired", function(value, element) { if (value == undefined || value == null) return false; if (value.toString().length == 0) return false; return true; });The above can be added to the top of the MicrosoftMvcJQueryValidation.js file (where is says "register custom jQuery methods"
Note the first parameter to the addMethod.. er… method. This is the same as the ValidationType property set when we defined the JRequiredValidator class. The function takes the value and checks that it is not null (or undefined) and checks that if it has a length of 0 characters that we also return false; otherwise we know that the field has an appropriate value and we can return true. True meaning that the field is valid, false meaning it is not.
The above code is rough as we don't check to see if there are any valid characters (for example a string of length 1 where the character is a space should not be valid in this case. The server side String.IsNullOrEmpty does do this check, but the client code doesn't. As this was just to get things going i will update the above when I refine it (if i remember).
Implicit Required Attribute ProblemThe above will work well on text fields (where your model has a string property), but when you try and apply this sort of logic onto DateTime properties etc. We have an issue because the framework automatically applies the required attribute to them :p not fair! :)
A solution to this is to make the property nullable and let the validation handle enforcing whether the property is valid… not very nice though.
I found another method which is to set the DataAnnotationsModelValidatorProvider's AddImplicitRequiredAttributeForValueTypes to false (by default it's true obviously!)
DataAnnotationsModelValidatorProvider.AddImplicitRequiredAttributeForValueTypes = false;
Implicit Non-Numeric-Field problemThe MVC framework automatically applies a couple of Model Validator Providers
- DataAnnotationsModelValidatorProvider
- DataErrorInfoModelValidatorProvider
- ClientDataTypeModelValidatorProvider
private static string MakeErrorString(string displayName) { // use CurrentCulture since this message is intended for the site visitor return String.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, MvcResources.ClientDataTypeModelValidatorProvider_FieldMustBeNumeric, displayName); }And is now this:
private static string MakeErrorString(string displayName) { // use CurrentCulture since this message is intended for the site visitor return String.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, ValidationMessages.FieldMustBeNumeric); }... referencing my custom resource file.
Now to unregister the old and register the new
// Remove the item that validates fields are numeric! foreach (ModelValidatorProvider prov in ModelValidatorProviders.Providers) { if (prov.GetType().Equals(typeof(ClientDataTypeModelValidatorProvider))) { ModelValidatorProviders.Providers.Remove(prov); break; } } // Add our own of the above with a custom message! ModelValidatorProviders.Providers.Add( new CustomClientDataTypeModelValidatorProvider());

Creating Disk Labels with gLabels
I was looking for a new program to create labels and came across gLabels. You can find the website at:
Here is a description of the project from the website:
"gLabels is a program for creating labels and business cards for the GNOME desktop environment. It is designed to work with various laser/ink-jet peel-off label and business card sheets that you'll find at most office supply stores. gLabels is free software and is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). "
This is an active program with the latest version 2.24 out in December 2008. Here is a simple label that you can create in seconds. You have all of the typical features of fonts, boxes, images and fill.
You can also create labels from a whole list of templates that are available.
When you want to modify a label of any sort you will have options in the right hand window for Test, Style, Size, Position and shadow. These are easy options to use and give you the features that you will want.
The program is easy to use and seemed to only have one issue in version 2.2.3 that you needed to create a box for the text so the font would print correctly. All in all it is well worth your time to take a look.

We started our Learning Tree shoot in a class room situation at their offices. I've shot several times in this classroom, but we did it a little differently this time. I've lit this room several different ways, bouncing heads into the ceiling, soft boxes off camera, HMI's punching through the windows, but this time I opted for hanging Kino Flo's from the ceiling, skinned with #250 diffusion. The client specified they wanted a very nice pool of even soft lighting. For all you grip fans out there, here is my advice for hanging Kino's from drop ceiling situations. I originally was going to use a scissor clamp, since that's what they are designed for, but upon my pre-light day to test these out, I discovered not all drop ceilings are treated equally. The scissor clamps did not fit on these ceilings. I opted to mount baby plates on some 1×6 boards and slide them on top of the frame by removing the panel. A much better solution since the weight is now distributed over two of the frame bars, instead of just one. This worked out beautifully. It also keeps the head a few inches taller in frame, which was critical for these low ceilings.
Next, we went to a studio situation. Well, this is even better for control if you have the option. We had a rather large shot list to try and get as many points of view as we can with these scenarios. Shooting on a large cove would allow this. I wanted to surround the talent in the tables with soft light on all sides. We mounted several heads on speed rail for the cove walls, and punched in 4 more heads through a large silk for the foreground. This worked out beautifully. The only trick was to keep adjusting the power output for the narrow depth of field shots (F4) to wider depth of field shots to around an (F11). Assistant Hugh did a fine job sprinting around the cove to adjust power settings though.
Notice the jib for the camera. Certainly not necessary for a still shoot, this is for the smooth flowing video shots. Although, since we were constantly changing angles and heights, it was great to be able to do that on the fly with the jib, as oppossed to re-adjusting the tripod legs all day.
We were able to shoot at the swanky Quixote Studios in Los Angeles. Right next door, were the standing sets for Criminal Minds. Great fun to go explore their sets since they were on location
Thank you Learning Tree! Looking forward to next time.

We're back again this month with another delicious recipe or two using Good Ole Blenheim Ginger Ale, brewed and bottled on the grounds of the world famous tourist attraction South of the Border in Dillon, South Carolina. Our old fashioned ginger ale is the perfect complement for a variety of adult beverages, and today we have a recipe for the Light 'n' Stormy, a version of the traditional Dark 'n' Stormy highball.
First, let's begin with the origins of the Dark 'n' Stormy. It's a popular mixed drink in many of the former British Colonies and Caribbean Islands, and it's traditionally been a mixture of ginger beer and dark rum. The smoky and sweet molasses notes of the dark rum make an excellent combination with spicy heat of the ginger beer. It's so well-liked in Bermuda, it's been dubbed the "National Drink" and its recipe has even been trademarked by rum producer and bottler Gosling's Brothers Limited. Whether that's even possible with a drink recipe is debatable, but it's a suitable place to begin our quest for a Dark 'n' Stormy recipe. Gosling's formula calls for 2 oz of Goslings Black Seal Rum in a glass of ice, then enough Goslings Ginger Beer to fill the glass, and a slice of lemon or lime to top it off as a garnish. There are myriad versions with different flavored rums and other ginger drinks, but that's the official trademarked recipe and it sure sounds good to us after a hot day in the South Carolina sun.
The overwhelming popularity of Blenheim Ginger Ale among the hip and trendy mixologists in America has lead to some new versions of the Dark 'n' Stormy made with Blenheim Old #3 Hot, that's the one with the red cap, in place of the ginger beer. The good folks over at 10 Cane Rum, who produce very high quality premium golden rum, have come up with a version that they call the Light 'n' Stormy. Here is their recipe:
Blenheim Ginger Ale isn't just South Carolina's favorite soft drink; its popularity extends all the way to the Left Coast where the exceedingly knowledgeable wine editor Jon Bonne of the San Francisco Chronicle came up with a fancy, but yummy sounding, cocktail using Blenheim Old #3. It is another variation on the Dark 'n' Stormy that he has renamed the Last of Our Sea Sorrow, which is a quote from a Shakespeare play. We'll have to take his word on that one because we don't know much Shakespeare, but we sure do recognize the makings of a fine cocktail when we read it:
Mix rum, Canton and lime juice in a cocktail shaker. Add ice and shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds. Either strain over fresh ice cubes into a highball glass and top with ginger ale, or strain into a small goblet and add chilled ginger ale. Garnish with lime.
We hope these fine cocktails and highballs made with Old Timey Blenheim Ginger Ale will enhance your fanatical love and devotion to our products. We would love to hear your favorite uses of Good Ole Blenheim around your kitchen or bar to include in upcoming posts. Thanks so much for all the emails we have received so far and we are working very hard to update our supplier list, develop an ecommerce system, and get Blenheim Ginger Ale into the hands of everyone who craves our fine South Carolina soft drink.

I know I have "senior" moments, but I take your directions to the original plant to be farther out of Blenheim than my recollection. Somebody got the time to help out a long time Blenheim drinker? Loved your product since the early fifties. Had to swap to the gold cap, tho. Still some good stuff.

Chelsea produced an excellent display to beat Stoke 4-0 at the Britannia Stadium
Chelsea moved back into third as they produced a commanding display to beat Stoke City 4-0 at the Britannia Stadium.
By Graeme Bailey - Tweet me: @graemebailey
Last Updated: 13/01/13 10:36am
Rafa Benitez saw his side bounce back from their midweek defeat to Swansea with a convincing performance as they could, and should, have won by an even bigger margin in the Potteries.
But it was a real day to forget for Stoke's Jon Walters as he scored two own-goals before firing over a late penalty as the home side saw their unbeaten home record disappear.
The Potters had not lost at the Britannia Stadium in the Premier League since February and have proved formidable opponents for the league's big guns, but this was their biggest home loss since returning to the top flight in 2008.
After a relatively uninspiring opening half, Chelsea went ahead on the stroke of half-time when Walters put a diving header into his own net as he looked to clear Cesar Azpilicueta's cross with Juan Mata pressuring him.
On the hour the officials made a huge call as referee Andre Marriner pointed to the spot when Azpilicueta looked like he caught Matthew Etherington but, much to Chelsea's relief, assistant Sian Massey had flagged for offside and replays showed she was right.
Then, just minutes later, Chelsea doubled their lead and amazingly it was another own goal from Walters as he flicked in a Mata corner with Asmir Begovic helpless.
Suddenly the game was beyond Stoke when Chelsea won a penalty on 65 minutes as Mata went down under pressure from Robert Huth and Ryan Shawcross, and Frank Lampard stepped up to hammer home.
Lampard could, and should, have added to that goal but he was denied from point-blank range by Begovic, who in truth kept the score respectable.
The game was put to bed 18 minutes from time and it was the pick of the goals as Eden Hazard fired into the top corner from 30 yards, a wonderful finish from the little Belgian.
Another huge cheer came from the away side as Chelsea captain John Terry made his long-awaited return from injury and the former England star did make a contribution as he gave away a late penalty.
Walters was quick to take the ball, but the Irishman's day went from bad to worse as he lashed his spot-kick high and it clipped the top of the bar.
The three points take Chelsea into third, above Tottenham who were held to a goalless draw at QPR earlier in the day.

While scanning my Twitter feed, I recently came across the following…
One hundred years from now, it will not matter
What kind of car I drove or what kind of clothes I wore.
All that will matter is that I made a difference
In the life of a child!
Upon seeing this quote, I immediately thought of all of the teachers who work tirelessly each day at #Cantiague Elementary. From my humble vantage point, our teachers set the bar pretty high as to what a highly effective educator looks like and have created a space where all children can thrive in some way, shape or form. But, my thoughts didn't end there... I started to think about the thousands of amazing educators who I have connected with on Twitter, Voxer, Facebook and Instragram over the last three years who have devoted themselves to one cause - doing what is in the best interest of children. I have learned so much from our #Cantiague community and from the members of my PLN that I genuinely believe that I am a better lead learner, educator, father and person because of the educators in my life (you all know who you are and I couldn't get through some days without you).
Unfortunately, the current landscape of education is plagued by negativity because of the politics that impact our daily work and the heavy handed way in which certain ideas, veiled as the silver bullets to fix all that is wrong with our schools, were introduced... high stakes testing linked to educator evaluations, the implementation of the common core standards devoid of systemic professional development for educators, the lack of voice educators have in enacting policy and the list can go on and on and on! Since most of our time is spent on data collection or preparing for high stakes tests or giving up days of learning to give said high stakes tests, I felt it was imperative to shed light on the "little" things great teachers do… the "little" things #Cantiague teachers do... the "little" things many members of my PLN do but can't be qualified by a number or score or test…
helping a child recover from a recess issue;
coaching a child out of the backseat of the car when they don't want to come to school;
giving the child a device at lunch so they can build their relationships with peers;
letting a child use your sleeve as a tissue when they can't control their tears;
letting a child do their homework in the morning while others unpack because no one could help them at home the night before;
modifying anything and everything to give every child an entry point for learning;
helping a child in the bathroom after they experienced serious stomach issues;
sharing your personal life and interests to establish a connection with a disconnected child;
give up your lunch period to meet with a child or just hang out with them;
climbing up a tree to save the child who felt they had no escape but to climb 30 feet up a tree;
drive a child home because the family doesn't have a mode of transportation;
hug a child who is having a bad day;
getting to know a child's passion and interests and successfully incorporating them into the learning opportunities;
support a colleague who is going through a difficult time;
hold a crying mom's hand during a conference because of the difficult subject matter being discussed;
showing empathy and earning trust;
You get the idea… the list goes on and on and although there are no numbers, grades or points for these daily efforts, they do not go unnoticed – I, for one, appreciate our teachers at #Cantiague and the thousands of educators in my PLN who have changed my world with all the "little" things they do.
So, as we get ready to enter Teacher Appreciation Week, I challenge all of us to take a moment to recognize all the "little" things the educators in our spaces do because although they may not be attached to a score or number, they are the things that impact the lives of children!

"Junk" DNA: Darwinism's Last Stand?
Here Jonathan Wells writes about the junk that turned out not to be.
Suppose your genome was your late great aunt's attic. You think the stuff in her attic is all just a load of junk. But unknown to you, her great-great grandma's Georgian dressing table is worth US$50 000 on the museum market, and archivists would kill for her great-grandpa's letters from the front.
Darwinists assumed that everything that wasn't being used now was junk, but apparently they were wrong - because they neglected the value of information generally, and stored information in particular. They truly believe in randomness, not information. Anyway, here's Wells:
We are often told that the evidence for evolution is "overwhelming." If "evolution" is defined as "change over time" or "minor changes within existing species," this is a truism. But what if "evolution" means Charles Darwin's theory? According to Darwin, all living things are descendants of a common ancestor that have been modified by unguided processes such as random variation and natural selection.See also Wells's book Politically Incorrect Guide to Darwinism and Intelligent Design (Regnery, 2006)
Despite the hype from Darwin's followers, the evidence for his theory is underwhelming, at best.
Natural selection—like artificial selection—can produce minor changes within existing species. But in the 150 years since the publication of Darwin's Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, no one has ever observed the origin of a new species by natural selection—much less the origin of new organs and body plans.
As a result, the only evidence that all living things are biologically descended from a common ancestor comes from comparisons of the similarities and differences among fossil and living species. When making such comparisons, however, Darwinists start by assuming common ancestry. Then they try to fit similarities and differences into the branching-tree pattern that would result from it, and they ignore the glaring inconsistencies that often remain.

Retired athlete Dennis Rodman has jetted to North Korea to run a basketball camp for children.
The former Chicago Bulls ace is teaming up with three members of New York City's Harlem Globetrotters to coach youngsters on the court and film their trip for a news show, which will air on HBO in April.
The relationship between America and the communist country has been tense for years, but presenter Shane Smith, who will host the program, is hopeful the series will help knock down cultural barriers.
He tells the Associated Press, "Is sending the Harlem Globetrotters and Dennis Rodman to the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) strange? In a word, yes. But finding common ground on the basketball court is a beautiful thing."
And the 51 year old, who arrived in Pyongyang on Tuesday, is excited about the new adventure: "It's my first time, I think it's most of these guys' first time here, so hopefully everything's going to be OK, and (I'm) hoping the kids have a good time."

Nov. 19, 2013 — North Carolina State University researchers have developed a technique for efficiently producing nanoscale gold rods in large quantities while simultaneously controlling the dimensions of the nanorods and their optical properties. The optical properties of gold nanorods make them desirable for use in biomedical applications ranging from imaging technologies to cancer treatment.
"This technique should facilitate the economical manufacture of large volumes of gold nanorods," says Dr. Joseph Tracy, an associate professor of materials science and engineering at NC State and senior author of a paper on the work. "And that should be good news for both the science community and the biomedical research and development community."
The NC State team started with an existing technique, in which gold nanorods are formed by mixing two chemical solutions together. However, that technique only converts 30 percent of the gold into nanorods -- the rest remains dissolved in solution.
To convert the remaining 70 percent of the gold into nanorods, the researchers added a continuous stream of ascorbic acid (better known as vitamin C) to the solution, while constantly stirring the mixture. The ascorbic acid essentially pulls the gold out of the solution and deposits it on the existing nanorods.
But the researchers also found that the slower they added the ascorbic acid, the stubbier the nanorods became. This is important because the optical properties of gold nanorods depend on their "aspect ratio" -- their relative height and width. For example, long, thin gold nanorods absorb light at wavelengths greater than 800 nanometers (in the near infrared spectrum), while shorter, wider gold nanorods absorb light at wavelengths below 700 nanometers (red or dark red).
"The ability to fine-tune these optical properties will likely be useful for the development of new biomedical applications," Tracy says.

Bulldogs' Defense Shuts Down Quakers, Ivy Leading Scorer Baron
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — The Yale University women's basketball team needed someone to take charge if there were any hopes of keeping pace in the Ivy League standings. Against Penn on Saturday, the Bulldogs didn't get one player to take charge. They got two.
Sophomore guard Megan Vasquez and senior forward Mady Gobrecht combined to score 26 of Yale's first 29 points of the second half to propel Yale to a 66-53 win over Penn in Ivy League action at the Palestra Saturday night.
"Your point guard and your post, if you can get a good inside-outside game going, they both helped out each other get good looks," said Chris Gobrecht, the Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954, Head Coach of Women's Basketball. "Penn is a very good defensive team. I thought we caught them a little flat-footed tonight, but they are still a good defensive team. I was very pleased with our team's ability to score against them."
With the win, Yale improves to 11-13 overall, 7-3 in the Ivy League. The Bulldogs remain in third place in the Ivy League standings, a half-game behind Harvard (15-8, 7-2) and a game and a half behind first-place Princeton (19-4, 8-1).
Vasquez scored 14 of her game-high 21 points and Gobrecht scored 12 of her 20 points in the second half to help Yale open up a 27-point lead, 60-33, with 5:59 left in the game. But the Bulldogs had to hold off a late charge by Penn to secure the victory. Penn outscored Yale 20-6 over the final 5:59, but could not complete the comeback.
Yale's defense held Penn freshman Alyssa Baron, the Ivy League's leading scorer, to just nine points. Baron was averaging 16.8 points per game prior to Saturday's game. Penn had only player score in double figures. Brianna Bradford came off the bench to score 13 points, with 10 of those points coming in the Quakers' late surge.
Yale, which never trailed, opened the game with a 9-2 run, forcing seven Penn turnovers in that stretch. Penn trimmed the early deficit to 9-5, and stayed within four points for a 3:04 span but Yale pulled away with a 15-4 run to open up a 28-13 lead. Penn scored the final four points of the half on back-to-back layups from Jerin Smith and Erin Power to cut Yale's lead to 28-17 at the halftime break.
"We jumped on them early and I thought for about 35 minutes, we played about as good a basketball game as you could play," Coach Gobrecht said. "I thought this would be one of the toughest games that we have played all year. I am very happy to come out of here with the win."
Penn scored the first four points of the second half on a 3-pointer by Jess Knapp and a free throw by Knapp a minute later. From that point, however, Mady Gobrecht took over. She scored the next seven Yale points to fuel a 20-2 run that also included threes from Allie Messimer and Yoyo Greenfield followed by back-to-back layups from Messimer and Gobrecht that put the Bulldogs ahead 48-23.
Penn snapped the run with a pair of free throws from Caroline Nicholson, but then Vasquez took control, scoring 12 straight Yale points to help the Bulldogs extend its lead to 57-31.
"Obviously we were very disappointed in the loss to Princeton Friday night," Coach Gobrecht said. "I think the only silver lining to come out of that game, if there was a silver lining, was we were such a no-show in that game that it didn't take anything out of us. We were a pretty fresh Saturday team and I think that showed in our transition game and our defense."
Yale remains on the road for a trip to Dartmouth on Friday at 7 p.m. and a showdown at Harvard on Saturday, which tips off at 6 p.m.

Phoenix rising: Partying for Potter
Everyone at our house is a Harry Potter fan —even…ahem… the adults among us. After three years with nothing but movies to satisfy our craving for magical adventures from the crew at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry, we are eagerly anticipating author J.K. Rowling's fifth installment in her seven-book series, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Turns out we're not the only ones. There's more excitement about the June 20 release of this book than there is for Christmas. According to The Wall Street Journal, Scholastic Books will print 8.5 million copies in what is "perhaps the biggest press run in book publishing history." And this Phoenix is expected to rise to the top of the bestseller list before breakfast on Saturday.
Barnes & Noble is celebrating this phenomenal literary debut with a Midnight Magic Party. Friday evening starting at 9pm, the normally staid store will be transformed into a haven for Harry Potter fans. Wizards and witches of all ages are invited to dress as their favorite Hogwarts characters and take the train on track 9 for an evening of supernatural entertainment and, at midnight, the chance to be among the first folks in town to own a copy of this celebrated manuscript.
Students from the Village School's summer orchestra will enchant partygoers in the café with theme songs from the Harry Potter movies. Guests can have the signature Harry Potter lightening bolt or other mystical symbols painted on their faces. Adoring fans will also want to step up to the Harry Potter "standee" where Hagrid will snap a picture of them next to the image of the powerful young wizard.
Competition is expected to be hot in the Harry Potter trivia contest that offers great give-aways for wizardly whizzes who know things like who Nicolas Flamel is and why Madame Maxime got mad at Hagrid. Back in the children's section, a jar of Bertie Botts' Every Flavour Beans is up for grabs if you can guess the correct number of spinach-, liver-, tripe-, sprout-, curry-, grass-, and vomit-flavored beans in it. And magician David Graham will be wandering the store waving his own magic wand.
When the witching hour strikes, the new Harry Potter will fly out of the boxes, and the store will stay open until every muggle is served. According to customer relations manager Michelle Allaire, there will "probably" be enough books available for those who pre-ordered and reserved a copy, but she offers no guarantees for those who did not.
Even if they don't get their hands on the book, Harry's fans will enjoy this chance to party it up with Hermione, Hagrid, and other Hogwarts heroes. I know I will.
Barnes & Noble's Midnight Magic Party celebrating the release of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix lasts from 9pm-midnight on June 20. Free. Barracks Road Shopping Center. 984-6598.

Is there an insect that behaves this way?

Is there an insect that behaves this way?
I am in Pennsylvania and have been spotting something odd at night which I assume is an insect of some sort. Once it gets dark out, above my father-in-laws barn, there have been these green lights flitting around. Maybe flitting isn't the right word. It is more of a very straight, fast moving green streak. The color is pretty much the same as a lightning bug but this doesn't seem to behave like any lightning bug I've ever seen. Lightning bugs are kind of slow and to me just seem to wander around. This is a quick streak in some direction and then it goes out and immediately I will see another streak going in another direction and so on. When I first saw this I thought maybe it was falling stars off in the distance. After I watched this for a few seconds though I realized that it is actually right over the barn. I'd say the average green streak is probably 4 or 5 feet and lasts about a second or so. According to my father-in-law, he sees this every night lately so I am going to see if he can get any video of it to come out halfway decent. Anyway, has anyone heard of such a thing? I can't really find anything online about it other than a few people on a paranormal forum who describe exactly what I saw but think they are seeing small UFOs or something. I did see on a wildlife website that apparently biologists will attach a green light to bats so they can track them but that the lights will fall off after a few minutes. The lights I am seeing go on for at least a few hours or so. I am kind of leaning towards the thought that it is an insect.
Hmmm... the only one that is even close would be the Ghost Firefly. From what I can find around the web, though, is that they usually hang low to the ground and are only found in uninhabited areas. These are over a barn in a town. I wish I could find a video of them in action to see if their patterns are similar.
Re: Is there an insect that behaves this way?
Hi "sushiboy", sure there are insects that do this. These are the "fireflies". However, they are not flies but beetles of the family Lampyridae. And both the males and the females produce "cold light" (by transforming the energy of some of their body-fat via special enzymes). It is only the males that can fly. Females sit somewhere between low vegetation and respond by appropriate "Morse"-signals to the light signals of the males. Fireflies can usually be observed on calm nights from early till about mid Summer.

I am not going to post anymore stuffs from Spring training. I did listen to the last two spring training games, but I just can't bring up enough energy to write more about spring training games for obvious reasons. Let's go play ball.
I know a lot of media outlets come up with a lot of perdiction which I can't and I won't do it. As a dieheart Yankees fan, I am excited at every new season and root for them no matter how they perform during the course of season. Of course, I don't know how to figure out a unbiased perdiction.
Let's Go Yankees.

Now there is a twitter account claiming to be the official Black Bloc Egypt. This account is called "@bbbEgypt"
This is not the only twitter account claiming to the official Black Bloc twitter account in Egypt but it is the most spread. At the same time the Black Bloc Facebook Pages claim that they do not have any Twitter accounts and the Twitter accounts claim that they do not have any Facebook Page.
Now there is something fishy about this "Black Bloc Egypt" account considering its content and updates. Aside from its violence direct incitement and lessons on how to make Molotov cocktails, I do not understand what kind of underground vigilante group is this that tells the whole world that it will attack the Presidential Palace during the protests jeopardizing the life of the protesters and their lives !!
Strangely I do not remember following this particular account , it appeared suddenly on my timeline which means that I used to follow it before but under different name. Now dear friends on twitter confirmed this information too and some believe that this used to be the account of "@rrCoalition".
That "rrCoalition" account claimed to be the official account of the Revolution Youth Coalition posting false rumors and information in the past like for instance claiming that the Ultras groups have stormed Maspero and demanding the protesters to go to the streets in order to support them. That account does not exist anymore as it has become "@bbbEgypt". The first time "@rrCoalition" mentioned the term "Black Masked brigades" was on January 25th ,2013 before it would become "@bbbEgypt"
|Replies @rrcoalition
Now as I curious person , I used some twitter analytic services to check the history of "@BBBEgypt" and "rrCoalition". Interestingly the account was made on February 9,2011.
This is according to Twirth and Twitonomy
I do not know if you will be to see the Twitonomy's bbbEgypt's profile page or not but it is detailed with a complete archive of the tweets.

You must know innocent young men and even underage minors are being arrested and accused of being members of that new enemy of the state with no proof what so ever except wearing black according to those who report them !! Some of these young men were subject torture for God sake !!
Please be careful in the information you read or share online nowadays.
