What's this, another looker from the seemingly-until-very-recently beigest of automakers? This swoopy headlight and air-intake belong to a new Lexus concept that will drop at the Detroit Auto Show next month and was penned by Lexus's American design studio specifically to appeal this market. Note how we used "appeal" and "Lexus" in the same sentence.
So far as we can tell, and after conversations with Lexus PR, the concept this nose is teasing is just a styling concept. But, along with cars like the sooooooooooooo expensive Lexus LFA and totally affordable Scion FR-S, it does suggest a new era of actually appealing Toyota cars.
Guess they finally figured out that making people want to buy your cars is better than simply producing automotive suppositories.

Hey - I'm published! Check out "Mindhacker: 60 Tips, Tricks, and Games to Take Your Mind to the Next Level"
A gigantic congratulations to Ron and Marty Hale-Evans on their great new book, Mindhacker: 60 Tips, Tricks, and Games to Take Your Mind to the Next Level. From the Wiley press release:
Ever wish you could tinker with your brain the way you can with your computer, to make it run faster, stay better organized, and get more done? Upgrading your brain's "software" can dramatically escalate your personal productivity, improving such skills as efficient learning, personal organization, time management, mental control, creativity, and decision-making.
For those looking to improve their mental skills, authors Ron and Marty Hale-Evans deliver a witty, compelling, and action-oriented cache of personal productivity tips and techniques in Mindhacker: 60 Tips, Tricks, and Games to Take Your Mind to the Next Level (Wiley; 978-1-1180-0752-5; September 2011). Readers can tune their brains to peak performance by using this array of clever, practical techniques founded in current research.
I'm fond of this book for three reasons. First, I loved Ron's book Mind Performance Hacks: Tips & Tools for Overclocking Your Brain, which, if I adopted a tenth of the techniques would make me a genius. Second, I had the pleasure of interviewing Ron in my post A conversation with Ron Hale Evans, author of "Mind Performance Hacks", which I enjoyed very much. But most exciting is that Ron asked me to contribute not one but two (!) hacks to this new book:
- Hack 21: Get Control of Yourself. Lost control of your life? Get back in the driver's seat with Jetpack, the pocket-sized system for managing your work and freeing up your brain for better things.
- Hack 54: Think, Try, Learn. Live life as a series of scientific experiments.
Working with Ron and Marty was a pleasure, and it was quite an experience having professionals help me create writing that was tight and industrial strength. I'm tickled pink to be included.
Their product page is here, and the Amazon link is here if you want to buy a copy. And as a special treat to you, dear reader, you can download the PDF of Hack 54.
Happy experimenting!

Vindication For Linus Pauling
A new government study says that radioactive fallout from nuclear weapons testing has caused at least 15,000 cancer deaths in the United States. This report was prepared as a joint effort by the National Cancer Institute and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Here is a chilling revelation from this report:
"Any person living in the contiguous United States since 1951 has been exposed to radioactive fallout, and all organs and tissues of the body have received some radiation exposure."
For those who don't know, more than 2,000 nuclear tests have been conducted worldwide since the first nuclear bomb was built. The latest government report considered only above-ground tests that took place between 1951 and 1962. This study uncovered intense radioactive "hot spots" in the continental United States all the way from California and Washington to Vermont, New Hampshire, and North Carolina.1
This report of 15,000 cancer deaths, however, is but preliminary. The full study is still being withheld from the public. Critics are accusing the Federal government of slowing the release of this information to minimize the consequences.
For decades, the Federal government contended that radioactive fallout from nuclear testing was harmless. Government propaganda films in the 1950s even showed American children playing in fresh radioactive ash to demonstrate that it was as "safe as snow."1
Now that the lethal consequences of the government's deceit are being exposed, we commemorate the scientist who risked imprisonment for organizing protests that eventually caused the United States and [the former] Soviet Union to ban above-ground nuclear testing.
Linus Pauling: The Scientist
Linus Pauling is the only person to ever win two undivided Nobel Prizes. The New Scientist magazine ranked Dr. Pauling as one of the twenty greatest scientists to ever live, an honor shared with such figures as Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin, and Isaac Newton.
Dr. Pauling's research focused primarily on physical chemistry. In 1939 he published The Nature of the Chemical Bond and the Structure of Molecules and Crystals and was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1954.
During World War II, Pauling participated in scientific enterprises deemed vital to the protection of the country. Early in the war he was a consultant to the National Defense Research Commission and later became a member of the Research Board for National Security. For his contributions, which included work on rocket propellants, on an oxygen deficiency indicator for pressurized space, such as that in submarines and aircraft, and on a substitute for human serum in medical treatment, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Merit in 1948.
Pauling's interest in the "behavior" of molecules led him from physical chemistry to biological chemistry. Dr. Pauling's research into amino acids resulted in the development of the first substitute for blood plasma.
In 1950, Dr. Pauling constructed the first satisfactory model of a protein molecule, a discovery that has implications for the understanding of the living cell. He studied and published papers on subjects as diverse as the effects of blood cell abnormalities, the relationship between molecular abnormality and heredity, the possible chemical basis of mental retardation, the functioning of anesthetics, the relationship of vitamin C deficiency to heart disease, etc.
Many of today's scientific and medical breakthroughs emanate from Linus Pauling's pioneering research in the fields of both physical and biological chemistry.
How Linus Pauling Got into Trouble
Linus Pauling knew that radioactive fallout–generated free radicals would cause cancer and other diseases in humans. Pauling joined with Albert Einstein and five others to form the Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists. Their mission was to inform the public about the dangerous consequences that nuclear weapons and nuclear testing held for civilization.
In 1957, Pauling wrote a scientific appeal petition calling for a nuclear test ban treaty and distributed it throughout the scientific community. He soon gathered over 9,000 signatures from 49 countries, including 2,000 American scientists. In 1958, Pauling presented the petition to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, announcing that it represented the general consensus of the world's scientists and their plea for a ban on future nuclear testing.
Pauling gave hundreds of lectures against nuclear weapons testing and war. Unfortunately, he toured during a time of heightened Cold War suspicions and was marked a Communist supporter. The Federal government refused to give Pauling a passport, thus denying him the opportunity to attend international scientific conventions. Pauling was twice subpoenaed to appear before congressional committees investigating anti-American activities to declare that he was not a Communist. On October 11, 1960, Pauling was threatened to be held in contempt of Congress because he refused to reveal the names of those who helped circulate his petition to ban nuclear testing.
Despite unrelenting governmental oppression, Pauling remained undaunted and continued his crusade by writing a draft resolution for a nuclear test ban treaty. He sent letters and copies of his resolution to both President Kennedy and Premier Khrushchev. The two superpowers eventually agreed on a limited test ban treaty, one that was strikingly similar to Pauling's. The treaty went into effect on October 10, 1963, the very day it was announced that Pauling was to receive his second Nobel Prize.
Too Far Ahead of His Time
By disseminating his knowledge about the lethal dangers of radioactive fallout, Pauling became a target of government persecution, harassment in the press, and charges of working for the enemy. He could have been jailed for refusing to provide Congress with the names of those involved in gathering more than 9,000 signatures for the scientific petition to ban above-ground nuclear testing.
We are now learning that the government knew about the effects of above-ground nuclear testing, but covered it up. In the 1950s for example, government officials notified suppliers of photographic film of expected fallout patterns so they could protect their film, but did not share the information with milk producers. Many children drank this radioactive contaminated milk.
A 1997 report by the National Cancer Institute indicated that farm children who drank goats' milk in the 1950s in high fallout areas were as severely exposed as the worst exposed children after the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear plant accident. Death rates from leukemia and other cancers, and diseases caused by the Chernobyl accident, are estimated to kill tens of thousands in the future.2
Environmental groups are calling for the US government to expand its compensation program for test site "downwinders" to include hot spots thousands of miles from the test sites, and to formulate and implement a comprehensive response to the public health threat posed by the fallout.
This preliminary report about the lethal effects of nuclear testing has alarmed some members of Congress, including Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa. "What we know is maybe the tip of the iceberg here," Harkin said. "We know that there's been upwards of perhaps 15,000 deaths that are attributable to these nuclear tests." Congress received the preliminary report last August. The report was endorsed by the prestigious Institute for Energy and Environmental Research, but the government has yet to formulate a public health response.
"People have a right to know if they were exposed, where the big areas of fallout were, and they need to be screened and told what to do to protect their health," Senator Harkin said.
It is interesting to note that what Senator Harkin advocates today would have been considered heresy in the 1950s, since the government's official position at that time was that radioactive fallout was harmless.
Forty-five years ago, Dr. Linus Pauling formulated a public health response to eradicate this problem, but the Federal government chose instead to persecute this brilliant scientist and humanist so that the practice of raining radioactive fallout throughout the United States could continue.
As is too often the case, when the government makes a criminal accusation against a political dissident (in this case Linus Pauling), history later shows that it was the government itself that was involved in the sinister activities. What could be more anti-American than inflicting cancer on 15,000 innocent people?
Comment from The New York Times, February 28, 2002
Dr. Linus Pauling's warnings of the increased incidence of cancer due to the fallout from atmospheric atomic weapons testing & the emissions of fission reactors were largely ignored by the mainstream media during his lifetime. Finally, in 1997, 40 years after his petition to the United Nations was denounced as "pro-communist," the US National Cancer Institute announced that large numbers of people, especially children, were exposed to dangerous levels of radiation from fallout. The damage done by the US, British, & USSR testing until 1963, of testing by France & China and, more recently, by Pakistan, India, et al, dispersed vast amounts of long-lived radioactive materials into the atmosphere. Since much of this consists of elements such as iodine, cesium, strontium, etc., which falling into the oceans, are ingested by oceanic organisms such as algae, plankton, etc. &, falling onto the ground, are taken up by grazing animals such as sheep & cattle, it becomes increasingly concentrated the higher it goes up the food chain. While we have until now managed to avoid the catastrophe of nuclear war, it appears that those responsible for protecting the security of our respective nations have, in fact, poisoned life on Earth for years to come.
Linus Pauling's Theory about Vitamin C and Heart Attack
Linus Pauling never stopped taking controversial positions. In the 1960s, he began to investigate the role that vitamin C played in human health. Pauling postulated that a cause of atherosclerosis is a lifelong vitamin C deficiency.
One of the great misfortunes of human evolution, Pauling explained, was when our human ancestors lost their ability to manufacture vitamin C. Ever since proto-humans moved out of fruit- and vegetable-rich habitats, Pauling said, they have suffered great deficiencies of vitamin C. Pauling recommended that people make up for this deficiency with daily doses of vitamin C much greater than the 60 mg recommended by the government.
Pauling laid out a molecular basis to explain vitamin C's connection with lipoprotein-a, a substance whose levels in the blood have been linked to cardiovascular disease. Lipoprotein-a is also a major component of the plaques found in the blood vessels of atherosclerosis patients.
Pauling has published studies asserting that lipoprotein-a is a surrogate for vitamin C, serving to strengthen blood vessel walls in the absence of adequate amounts of the vitamin in the diet. Pauling noted that animals that manufacture their vitamin C have very little lipoprotein-a in their blood.
Pauling was convinced that high doses of vitamin C could help prevent the onset of cardiovascular disease, inhibiting the formation of disease-promoting lesions on blood vessel walls and perhaps decreasing the production of lipoprotein-a in the blood.
Linus Pauling's position on vitamin C once again put him under intense criticism, this time from the medical establishment who asserted that vitamin C had nothing to do with heart attack risk.
|The only reason Linus Pauling was not thrown in jail for promoting the benefits of vitamin C is that he did not sell it. Before 1994, the FDA prohibited distributors of vitamin supplements from making health claims.
Linus Pauling Again Exonerated
Over the past 12 years, a large volume of published studies has supported Linus Pauling's position on the role of vitamin C and heart disease. Many of these studies look at the beneficial effects that vitamin C has on the arterial wall, but what is most impressive are human epidemiological studies showing that people with high levels of vitamin C live longer and suffer fewer heart attacks compared to those with low vitamin C.
One of the first human studies that substantiated the benefits of vitamin supplements was announced in 1992 and showed that men who took 800 mg a day of vitamin C lived six years longer than those who consumed the FDA's recommended daily allowance of 60 mg a day. This ten-year study, published in the journal Epidemiology,3 showed that high vitamin C intake extended average life span and reduced mortality from cardiovascular disease.
A compelling report that high-potency supplements extend life span in humans was published in the August 1996 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. This study involved 11,178 elderly people, who participated in a trial to establish the effects of vitamin supplements on mortality. When the effects of vitamin C and E were compared, overall mortality was reduced by 42%. What made these findings significant was that the study compared people who took low potency "one-a-day" multiple vitamins to those who took higher potency vitamin C and E supplements. Only the participants taking high-dose vitamin C and E supplements benefitted.4
A study published in the British Medical Journal evaluated 1,605 randomly selected men in Finland aged 42 to 60 years between 1984 and 1989. None of these men had evidence of pre-existing heart disease. After adjusting for other confounding factors, men who were deficient in vitamin C had 3.5 times more heart attacks than men who were not deficient in vitamin C. The scientists' conclusion was, "Vitamin C deficiency, as assessed by low plasma ascorbate concentration, is a risk factor for coronary heart disease."5
In a study published last year in The Lancet, researchers at Cambridge University in England looked at serum vitamin C and how long people lived. People who had the lowest levels of vitamin C were twice as likely to die compared to those with the highest serum vitamin C levels. This study was based on the findings from over 19,000 people.6
Does Vitamin C Cause Kidney Stones?
Linus Pauling came under attack by medical doctors who asserted that vitamin C caused kidney stones. Based on Dr. Pauling's molecular knowledge of chemistry, he meticulously rebutted these unfounded allegations. What Dr. Pauling lacked in the 1960s and 1970s, however, were human studies to validate that vitamin C did not increase kidney stone risk.
Dr. Pauling was exonerated again by a report from Harvard Medical School that showed no increased risk of kidney stones when evaluating 85,557 women over a 14-year study period. This report, published in the April 1999 issue of the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, showed that women who consumed 1,500 mg a day or more of vitamin C were no more likely to develop kidney stones than women who consumed less than 250 mg of vitamin C a day. The study did reveal that women who consumed 40 mg or more of vitamin B6 were 34% less likely to develop kidney stones compared to women taking fewer than 3 mg a day of B6.7
The only reason Linus Pauling was not thrown in jail for promoting the benefits of vitamin C is that he did not sell it. Before 1994, the FDA prohibited distributors of vitamin supplements from making health claims.
Can We Stop Persecuting Today's Linus Paulings?
|How to Live Longer and Feel Better
Those with new ideas often face fierce attack by the establishment and the Federal government. A recent example was the announcement that human embryonic stem cells had been produced and that there is now an opportunity to cure many of today's lethal diseases.
You would think that the scientist who made this remarkable discovery, Dr. Mike West, would be proclaimed a hero. Instead, government leaders immediately vowed to pass new laws to make it a crime to create embryonic stem cells for therapeutic cloning purposes. In Senate hearings, scientists and people afflicted with disease are appealing to lawmakers to not ban therapeutic cloning research.
Our concern is that only a miniscule number of brilliant minds like Linus Pauling are ever born. When Linus Pauling stated that radioactive fallout caused cancer in humans, he was ridiculed, persecuted and almost incarcerated. Now 45 years later, Pauling has been proven right. This vindication does nothing for the 15,000 Americans who have perished from radioactive fallout-induced cancer.
Today, there are pockets of exceptional intelligence that are stifled by bureaucratic red tape. In order to create the scientific renaissance needed to radically extend the healthy human life span, we must break down the barriers that suppress implementation of new ideas.
We as citizens and Life Extension® members must protect those brilliant minds (the Linus Paulings of today) who may be too intimidated to risk their personal freedom to bring forth the scientific truth.

Qatar's prime minister said Wednesday that the Syrian government appears unwilling to change course and is continuing to attack its own people as the Arab League considers the effectiveness of its observer mission there. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton cautions that the monitoring mission can not continue indefinitely.
Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jabor Al Thani said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad appears unwilling to cooperate with Arab League efforts to resolve the political crisis.
Mr. bin Jassim said President Assad dismisses the Arab League as a group that has had nothing but six decades of failure. He says there are those who would judge four decades of rule in Syria in much the same way, but that is for the Syrian people to decide.
As government attacks continue, Mr. bin Jassim - who also is Qatar's foreign minister - says the most important thing now is for the killing to stop, for the Syrian military to withdraw from the streets, and for the government to release political prisoners.
He spoke to reporters following talks with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who commended Qatar's leadership in rallying the Arab world to end what she calls President Assad's assault against his own people.
"Two weeks ago, Arab League monitors arrived in Syria to judge whether the regime was keeping its promise to end the killings, withdraw its troops, release political prisoners and follow through on the commitments that it had made. So far, the regime has not done so," said Hillary Clinton.
The United Nations estimates that at least 5,000 people have been killed in the protests against President Assad. He told crowds in the capital on Wednesday that ?true patriots? are defending the nation. The speech followed a televised address the day before in which the Syrian leader vowed to use an ?iron fist? against what he says is an international terrorist conspiracy.
Secretary Clinton said President Assad is blaming everyone accept those truly responsible for the violence.
"Instead of taking responsibility, what we hear from President Assad in his chillingly cynical speech yesterday was only making excuses, blaming foreign countries, conspiracies so vast that now it includes the Syrian opposition, the international community, all international media outlets, the Arab League itself," she said.
Secretary Clinton said she and Prime Minister bin Jassim agree that the Arab League monitoring mission in Syria should not continue indefinitely.
"We can not permit President Assad and his regime to have impunity," said Clinton. "Syrians deserve a peaceful transition.?
So far, Prime Minister bin Jassim said that the Arab League observer mission has not been a success, but that leaders will wait to make a full evaluation until after the observer mandate expires on January 19.
"We can not accept the situation as it is in Syria and the people killed by their own government," said bin Jassim. "I think it is an Arab responsibility, but it is also an international responsibility in the end.?
Mr. bin Jassim said regional leaders still hope to solve the Syrian conflict within the ?House of the Arabs,? but that the Syrian government is not helping by continuing its daily killing of opponents.
Qatar PM: Syria Appears Unwilling to Change Course
Qatar's prime minister said Wednesday that the Syrian government appears unwilling to change course and is continuing to attack its own people as the Arab League considers the effectiveness of its observer mission there. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton cautions that the monitoring mission can not continue indefinitely.

Possible hazards to be aware of in affected areas following superstorm Sandy
Superstorm Sandy may be gone in many areas, but there are still potential hazards to watch for in its aftermath:
� Downed power lines. Avoid them because they may still be live. And report them to the power company.
� Trees. Check for cracks, dangerous leaning and soil fractures that may indicate unstable roots and a tree about to topple.
� Flooded roads and bridges. Don't drive on them because they may have weakened.
� Well water. If you get your water from a well, don't drink or prepare food with tap water until you are sure it's not contaminated.
� Returning home. Stay out of any building if it's still surrounded by flood water, if you smell gas or if there are signs of damage and it hasn't been declared safe by a building inspector or structural engineer.
� Backup power. Never use generators inside homes, garages, crawl spaces or sheds, even when using fans or opening doors and windows for ventilation. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can quickly build up and linger for hours, even after the generator has been shut off.
� Grilling. Never fire up a charcoal grill inside a house, fireplace or tent because it also produces carbon monoxide.
� In the dark. Use battery-powered flashlights, not candles. The flashlight should be turned on outside before entering a dark home because the battery could produce a spark and ignite leaking gas. Unattended candles can cause fires.
� In the fridge. Check refrigerated food for spoilage. If in doubt, throw it out.
� Cleaning up. Wear protective clothing and be cautious to avoid injury.

Because it's an adjective form, not a verb. I am worried. He is worried. They are worried.
English Teacher
Dear native speakers,
Why has "worried" been used in the following sentence and not "worry"?
"The explosion around the world in mobile phone use has some health professionals worried."
Because it's an adjective form, not a verb. I am worried. He is worried. They are worried.
Hello, Teacher Haseli:
May I add a few comments to SoothingDave's excellent answer?
I believe (repeat: believe) that:
1. "Worried" in that sentence is the past participle of the verb "to worry."
2. It is being used as an adjective to describe the object "health professionals."
3. Grammar books say that "worried" in your sentence is a so-called objective complement.
a. One of my favorite books * says this:
"The objective complement is so called because it is added to the direct object to complete the meaning expressed
by the verb ("complement" means something that completes)."
4. Thus, I believe, if your sentence simply said, "The situation has health professionals," the sentence would obviously
need completing. That is, the situation has health professionals what? Answer: worried.
* Walter Kay Smart, English Review Grammar (1940; copyright renewed in 1953), page 14.
Dear ThePareser,
Thanks for your kind reply. I do not have the book that you mentioned. Is it possible for you to send it to me via email, if you have a pdf format of it?
If you want a grammar, I suggest you find one that was published recently, rather than one first published 72 years ago. The language has changed quite a bit in the last seven decades.
Hello, Teacher Haseli:
Thank you for your very kind note.
Mr. Smart's book is really great. For example, it has a wonderful section explaining the many uses of "as," one of my favorite
I imagine that you could find a copy in a good library.
You also might try some some of the book sellers online. They might offer used copies.
It was published by Prentice-Hall in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, United States of America. I do not know whether or not
they are still in business, but I am sure that you could find out on the Web and write them telling them your interest in getting a copy.
It's a great book. So I hope that you are able to get a copy. It will really help you understand things so that you are able to explain them with confidence to your students.
UPDATE: I have just googled "English Review Grammar Fourth Edition Walter Kay Smart." Several companies seem to offer copies of that book.

U.S. Gets Free Cash in Sale of 4-Week Bills
Short-Term Treasury Bills Sell at Auction for Zero Yield as U.S. Borrows Less
The U.S. got free cash in the bond market for the first time in 17 months, paying no yield as it sold $20 billion of four-week Treasury bills.
The sale shows that the U.S. government is reaping benefits from a drop in the supply of such short-term Treasury securities as it cuts back on borrowing. The size of Tuesday's auction for such bills was less than half of the $45 billion up for auction in April.

From my understanding,
const modifiers should be read from right to left. From that, I get that:
const char*
is a pointer whose char elements can't be modified, but the pointer itself can, and
char const*
is a constant pointer to
mutable chars.
But I get the following errors for the following code:
const char* x = new char[20];
x = new char[30]; //this works, as expected
x[0] = 'a'; //gives an error as expected
char const* y = new char[20];
y = new char[20]; //this works, although the pointer should be const (right?)
y[0] = 'a'; //this doesn't although I expect it to work
So... which one is it? Is my understanding or my compiler(VS 2005) wrong?

Kim Ima: The treats! I was obsessed with making treats, but as soon as I thought up the idea of the Treats Truck, that was it. I was instantly in love.
CS: What was the first baked good you ever sold on the truck?
KI: Hmmm, I know I had frosted Sugar dots (picture below), Chocolate chippers, oatmeal cookies and brownies on the truck that first day. I don't remember what was the very first cookie sold off of the truck. Aw, I wish I remembered!
CS: Does the treats truck play music to attract customers? If so, what kind of music? Or, if not, what music do you listen to inside of the truck?
KI: The truck does not play music. Most of the time, the streets provide the background soundtrack for the day. Oh, occasionally I park near a guy who plays the keyboard and sings Frank Sinatra.
CS: Please finish this thought for us: An ice cream truck pulls up next to the Treats Truck at a red light, and revs its engine. What happens when the light turns green?
KI: I nod at the driver, we lock eyes in a meaningful way, he looks my truck up and down, nods back, shrugs and speeds away. A note, "speeds away" for an ice cream truck is probably going 25 miles an hour.
Cakespy Note: We just know that Ice Cream Man's quaking like Jell-o in his boots.
CS: Do you think that one day the cultural icon of the ice cream truck may be unsettled by the concept of a treats truck?
KI: I think we'll have both. Don't you think?
(photo of Treats Truck cone cupcakes c/o flickr user nycblondieandbrownie)
CS: Your ice cream cone cupcakes have been getting a lot of interest lately. Why do you think they're so popular?
KI: Well, they make people smile! I know I love them because they are yummy and fun and have lots of icing and sprinkles. A cupcake in a cone? It is a special treat, no two ways about it.
CS: Not only are you the proprietress of Treats Truck, but you're also an actress and artist. This begs the question--how do you do it all?
KI: Well, there are only so many hours in the day, but the idea is that there will be many days ahead. Right now, I am working full time running the Treats Truck. In the earlier stages of the business, I did both. In the future, I will be able to return to working on projects in the theater. Right now, the treats need my full attention, and I love it.
CS: You reference the "kitchen sink" crispy and cookie on your list of favorite treats. We've never had kitchen sink cookies. Can you explain the "kitchen sink" aspect to us?
KI: "Kitchen sink" to me means you can put lots of crazy ingredients together. In a way, it is the idea of opening your cupboard and seeing what you can throw in. If I feature a "kitchen sink" crispy or cookie, I may put a mix of candy, pretzels and cereal in the mix. The next time it could change. It is a license to play.
CS: Are some baked goods more popular in some neighborhoods than others?
KI: Yes, as a matter of fact! Some neighborhoods love anything with peanut butter (especially midtown) and one neighborhood in Brooklyn really goes for crispy squares with whole wheat cereal and fruit in it and anything with jam. I bake more of certain items depending on where I'm going. It's fun to try out new specials on the different neighborhoods and see who is especially into them.
CS: What's next for The Treats Truck?
KI: I would love to have two trucks with regular street schedules by the spring, as well as appearances at special events, and I would like to open a store in the next year or two.

The event lasted three and half days (the last day was an Sunday) and was also an opportunity to meet old friends like Tomaz:
and new friends like Fernando:
I have been talking to Fernando through Internet for almost one year and have never had the chance to meet him in person, though we live in the same city hehe. Hopefully, he will become one more contributor to KDE :-)
One of the things I did during the event was helping Lays developing the new QML user interface for brprint3d and giving some tips for her GSoC work in Umbrello:
And having fun :-)
Besides helping Lays, I also helped Ronny to investigate and fix a bug in this QML game and did some bug triage for Plasma NM and Solid. The end result was some old bugs closed and this patch to Qt Declarative to fix a crash that affects Plasma NM.
Actually, the crash is an assert being triggered in QList while VDMModelDelegateDataType::notify() iterates through a QList of QQmlDelegateModelItem pointers. Somehow the list size shrinks inside the loop and the index-out-of-range assert is triggered. While investigating the bug I noticed that QQmlDelegateModel::_q_itemsRemoved() iterated through the same list but did not trigger the assert. Looking into its source code there is this comment above a couple of lines of code:
// layout change triggered by removal of a previous item might have
// already invalidated this item in d->m_cache and deleted it
// already invalidated this item in d->m_cache and deleted it
Applying the same code to VDMModelDelegateDataType::notify() prevents the assert being triggered. I submitted a review request for Qt Declarative 5.6 with my patch and I am waiting for the comments about it.
It was great to meet my KDE fellows, old and new faces, during this LaKademy. Hope to see them again during Akademy in September.

Fitting Alcohol Into Your Meal Plan
The use of alcohol should be discussed with your physician and healthcare team. As a general guideline, for persons using insulin, two alcoholic beverages may be used in addition to their regular meal plan. No food should be omitted in exchange for an alcoholic drink. For persons who are not on insulin and are watching their weight, alcohol is best substituted for fat choices and in some cases extra bread/starch choices.
Some alcoholic beverages contain higher amounts of sugar and carbohydrate — these include sweet wines, sweet vermouth and wine coolers. Use these sparingly as they may increase your blood glucose levels too much. Additional guidelines for the use of alcohol are printed below.
Beverage Amount Calories Carbo- Equal to: hydrate (gms) ------------------------------------------------------------- Beer Regular beer 12 ounces 150 14 1 starch &
General Guidelines for the Use of Alcohol
Alcoholic beverages are a common part of our social lives. Each adult must decide whether or not to use alcohol. When making this decision, you should understand what the potential effects of alcohol are on your health. Although alcohol has little effect on blood glucose control, it may worsen other medical problems. Make sure you discuss the use of alcohol with your doctor.
Use alcohol only in moderation
With your doctor's approval, alcohol should be limited to two drinks a day. A "drink" is defined as a 12 ounce beer (preferably light beer), a 4 ounce glass or wine or a 2 ounce glass of dry sherry or 1.5 ounces of a distilled beverage, such as whiskey, rye, vodka or gin. Sip your drink slowly and make it last a long time.
Alcohol has calories
Even though your doctor may approve the use of alcohol, if you are trying to lose weight, you still may want to avoid it. Alcoholic beverages give you calories without any nutritional value. If you do drink, select some of the lower calorie choices.
Never drink on an empty stomach
Alcoholic beverages can make your blood glucose drop. Avoid the risk of a low blood glucose by having your drink at meal time, or having a snack along with the drink.
Avoid drinks that contain large amounts of sugar
The carbohydrate content of alcoholic drinks will vary. Limit those with sugar as they will have a higher amount of carbohydrates and may therefore contribute to a high blood glucose. Avoid sweet mixers and use sugar-free products.
Drink with caution - carry identification
Signs and symptoms of low blood glucose and intoxication are similar! If you take insulin, don't get into a situation where you may be drinking on an empty stomach and getting hypoglycemic — and your friends just think you are a little "tipsy." Make sure your companions know you have diabetes and know how to treat an insulin reaction. Always wear identification that you have diabetes.
Some medications may not mix with alcohol
It is not advised to drink if you are taking certain medications. People taking oral hypoglycemic agents may have a reaction to the alcohol. Discuss this with your doctor.

The only characters that can't appear in attacker controlled value are [CR] and [LF] (they can't appear in any combination). In all places where I read about HTTP header injection it was told about injecting those characters.
Is it possible to do HTTP header injection or some other harmful attack without CRLF?

amazing, we love the car
By johnl64 on Thursday, June 15, 2017We were looking for a first car for our 17-year old daughter. Saw a 2014 Mirage w/40K miles on a local dealers website. The price was in our ball park so we went to look but were skeptical. First, Im 6 3, 225lbs and when we went for the test drive I thought there was no way Id fit comfortably in any seat. Well I was wrong. Drivers seat, passenger seat and rear seats were no problem. Second, we were concerned by the pros reviews so during the test drive (4 of us in car) I pushed the car hard - it performed - we were totally impressed. Third, not flashy, no bells or whistles but with power windows, a/c, decent radio/speaker combo, look of dash, enough space in back, etc... all just right. Last, no idea how but they even fit a spare tire. Yup, we bought the car, she absolutely loves it and so do we.

Great little car
By faronicus on Friday, May 04, 2018I took a flyer on this car because it got such great consumer / owner reviews (as opposed to most professional automotive reviews) and, after a year of driving my Mirage, Id say the owners are totally right. Do not listen to Doug DeMuro and his ilk when it comes to this car. It is basic transportation in the best sense...its a modern-day Citroen 2CV or (original) VW Beetle. Yes, it feels like a 1990s econobox, and probably would have more in common with a Toyota Tercel or Geo Metro than a Ford Fiesta BUT for the terrific creature comforts: it has cruise control, bluetooth, push-button start, and power everything (I have the ES model). Mitsu did not have to do all this for a poor mans Honda Fit, but it did! I have the manual transmission which I think is essential for a car like this. Mechanically, its very simple and very sound and will probably live well until the Chelsea Clinton presidency. The MPG is awesome...Ive hit 50+ on a few highway occasions. But its not the best highway cruiser...it can get blown around as youd expect for a 2K pound car, but its good enough for my long commute, and itll park anywhere. It can even park perpendicular to SUVs on the street and not block traffic! So I would highly, highly recommend this car to anyone.

First New Car Ever! (I have the ES Manual)
By JimmithyWeav on Thursday, January 26, 2017My boyfriend and I have been looking for a car for me for quite some time. I had an old 02 Cav that was just ready to go. We heard something on the radio and looked into this car and not even 3 days later I had the keys. This is the second manual vehicle I have ever drove (first being a Ford Ranger) and the clutch and gear shifts are smooth and easy to learn. The car does have some issues with getting up and going (with the engine size it is expected) and like one of the other comments has said, not very good on a windy day. Other than the small little things the car is sleek and a great design. Small but roomy. We fit 4 people (including the driver) and a trunk full of groceries on the first day of having and it handled all the weight very well. I am very excited to have this car from now and going on! I do have the standard radio that is built into it and it does all what I need it to do with an AUX input. The car also heats up fast, which is a major plus for living in Ohio.

TORONTO - Several hundred fees paid to Ontario doctors are going under the knife as the province's minority Liberals forge ahead with a wage freeze for physicians after labour negotiations fell apart last week.
The regulatory changes affecting Ontario Health Insurance Plan fees and premiums will retroactively take effect April 1, Health Minister Deb Matthews said Monday.
The latest salvo came after the Ontario Medical Association rejected her demand to hammer out a new four-year agreement over the weekend with a conciliator after months of negotiations.
"I was left with no choice," Matthew said. "We were very clear with the OMA. We campaigned on a wage freeze, our budget was explicit that we were looking for a real wage freeze with doctors."
But Matthews was at a loss to explain when the Liberals even mentioned a wage freeze in last fall's election campaign.
Despite the unilateral cuts — and the threat of further changes to physician compensation — Matthews said she hopes the OMA will still come back to the negotiating table.
"We will make better choices if we do it together, I know that," she said.
The changes will affect 37 procedures and services, from family care to cardiac care, diagnostic services, eye care and anesthesia. They'll also eliminate double payments, such as a fee for inserting a cardiac catheter, which is already included in cardiac services.
The regulatory changes include slashing payments in half for doctors who "self-refer" — those who refer their patients back to their own practice for diagnostic services like X-rays. The province currently spends $88 million a year on self-referrals, according to ministry officials.
The province is cutting fees in half for electrocardiograms to save $21 million, and reducing fees for interpreting results of diagnostic radiology by five per cent to save $30 million.
It's also lowering fees for colonoscopy and gastroscopy, dialysis teams and cataract surgeries. Cataract surgeries, for example, used to take two hours and now take about 15 minutes, officials said.
Some of the changes will affect patients, such as delisting joint/spine manipulation services and limiting optical coherence tomography for patients with retinal disease or glaucoma to four times a year.
The province is also putting new restrictions on X-rays, CT and MRI scans for those with chronic lower-back pain, as well as vein surgery and sclerotherapy, which is often used to treat varicose veins and hemorrhoids.
There is a silver lining: a new $16 fee for doctors who consult with other physicians via email. Consulting doctors get $20.50.
Doctors are now able to work more quickly and effectively due to new technologies but the fees haven't changed, Matthews said.
At $911, Ontario is second only to Alberta for per-capita spending on doctors, the government said.
The average Ontario doctor bills $385,000 each year, about 75 per cent more than in 2003, when the Liberals took office. More than 400 doctors in the province are billing over $1 million a year, and 20 earn over $2 million.
Ophthalmologists, cardiologists and radiologists will be hardest hit by the reductions, officials said.
The fee cuts will save the province $338 million this year, but it's only 80 per cent of what the province needs to meet its fiscal target to eliminate a $15-billion deficit, Matthews said.
And that's not everything the government's prepared to do to meet that target, she said. There are other programs that could be affected, such as retainer bonuses, if the OMA refuses to accept a "real" wage freeze.
The move should come as no surprise to the OMA, whose members were warned that doctors' fees would be cut if they didn't accept a wage freeze, she said.
Matthews insists the changes will actually improve patient care, despite warnings from the OMA that it will force patients to wait longer for health care and chase doctors out of the province.
"Other provinces like Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan are increasing the fees they pay to doctors," said Dr. Doug Weir, a child psychiatrist who just took over as OMA president. "This government is making cuts."
He accused the Liberals of turning their back on doctors and patients, adding that the cuts will lengthen wait lists for tests like mammography and ultrasounds.
They're also cutting common fees that family doctors bill for baby care and pre-natal visits, Weir said.
"This is the first time in history that the government — which promised to protect patients and negotiate fairly — has behaved this way," he said. It's clear that the Liberals never intended to negotiate with doctors, he added.
"Where I come from holding your breath until you get what you want is not negotiating," Weir said.
The OMA also disputes the government's claims of how much doctors earn, saying they actually rank seventh in the country in terms of their fees, according to the Canadian Institute of Health Information.
The two sides have been battling it out since February, with the cash-strapped government insisting that they can't afford any new funding increases for doctors.
The minority Liberals are demanding the same from all broader public sector workers, including teachers, nurses and civil servants. They've also threatened to legislate the pay freeze if all other options at the negotiating table fail.
The OMA said it offered to freeze doctors' fees for two years and find an additional $250 million in savings, but Matthews rejected the proposal.
The minister said the OMA wants the government — which already spends $11 billion a year on doctors' fees — to pay for the rising costs of health care as the population ages. She wants the doctors to find the money to fill that gap.
The pay freeze for doctors and nurses is part of the Liberals' plan to reduce annual growth in health-care spending to 2.1 per cent a year from the current 6.1 per cent, in order to slay the deficit in 2017.
Opposition Leader Tim Hudak plans to introduce legislation to impose an immediate two-year wage freeze on more than one million public sector workers in Ontario, saying immediate action is needed following the province's credit downgrade by Moody's Investors Service on April 26.

Giving Grunt to a Wimpy Exhaust System
The exhaust system is often one of the most overlooked aspects of a classic truck but let's face it, when the key turns and the engine is fired, it's time to separate the men from the boys. You could have the hottest looking shortbed Fleety on the block, but if it's wheezing through a sad, single muffler, you might be laughed right out of the local drive-in. It's as if you worked out on your upper body only, leaving two little, skinny bean pole legs to poke out from your awesome Muscle Beach stretchy tank top. It's not cool, it's not right, and it's just plain sad.
So what do you do when you just bought a classic pickup with the aforementioned bean pole exhaust? You do what our buddy Danny Valenzuela did; you call up your buddy who works for a magazine and ask him to hook you up for free! Well, that's not exactly what you'd do or what he did. What you'd do is bust out the latest issue of everybody's favorite hot rod truck magazine, Custom Classic Trucks, and flip through and find an advertiser who sells exhaust products. Then you call them up and tell them what you need! Well, in a perfect world anyways!
But that's what we did in a nutshell. I had a pair of Hushpower mufflers for a future project that wouldn't need them anytime soon, so I donated it to the project as well as a U-Fit kit from Flowmaster, which I had borrowed a few pieces from over the years that also needed a good home. We called up Doug's Headers for a set of bolt-in pipes to fit the 360ci Ford engine and they asked if we wanted to include their stainless steel electric cutout kit. Scare unwitting women and children? Uh, yeah!
We tore into the build on a Tuesday morning and save for a few unrelated snags along the way, were huffing and puffing out on the road by Wednesday evening. So to say that you could do the exhaust job in a weekend is to say the least. Next time you pick up a project that suffers from the wheezes, give the job a shot yourself; you'll probably find it easier than you thought and you might even save some dough! Who wouldn't appreciate that? CCT

The No. 14 Gauchos ended their run in the 2012 UCSB/asics Invitational Tournament with a loss to top-ranked BYU in straight sets on Saturday afternoon, earning them sixth place overall for the tournament. UCSB also met BYU in their last match in the 2011 iteration of the tournament, where BYU topped the Gauchos to win the tournament championship. Game scores for the match were 26-24, 25-22, 25-19.
The Gauchos were led by Junior outside hitter Evan Miles, who paced his squad with 11 kills. BYU had strong performances from hitters Taylor Sander and Josue Rivera, who both broke the double-digit kill barrier, recording 17 and 11 kills respectively.
The first set was as close to a game-win as the Gauchos got in the match, forcing BYU to score 26 points in order to dispatch them. Miles Evans had four of his kills in the frame, and also recorded a pair of service aces. Freshman outside hitter added three of his four kills in the set to keep things close. As a team, 2.5 of their 3.5 total blocks came in the set. Despite all that, the Cougars were able to trump the Gauchos in the set on the strength of Taylor Sander's six kills and a whopping 6.5 team blocks.
The second set did little to improve the Gauchos' spirit, as Sander and Rivera again dissected the Gauchos blocking efforts, recording five kills apiece. BYU hit a collective .500 in the set. The Gauchos' second set play was highlighted by another four kill performance from Miles Evans and five digs from Kevin Donohue, who would finish the match with six.
Though the Gauchos had their highest single-set hitting percentage of the afternoon in the third frame (.167), they also put up their lowest point total (19).
Sophomore libero Chad Kingi and freshman outside hitter Weston Nielsen, who both played out of position in the match, had solid nights despite any discomfort. Kingi piled up 31 assists and four digs, while Nielsen scooped up five digs in the match.
UCSB Head Coach Rick McLaughlin reflected on the loss: "The best thing about [the tournament] was that we got three matches in and we have a lot of young guys that got some really good playing time which is vital for us right now. We showed a lot of character when we came out and won against Northridge after losing two in a row where we were up in sets."

House of Blues Presents
Bullet For My Valentine
House of Blues Las Vegas
3777 Las Vegas Blvd S
Las Vegas, NV, 89109
Sometimes, there's no better feeling than losing control. Energy gets released; it's irresistible and infectious. That's the case on Bullet For My Valentine's fourth full-length offering, TEMPER TEMPER (RCA Records) set for release February 12, 2013. Tightening their grooves and sharpening their riffs, the Welsh quartet who has sold over 4 million albums world wide—Matt Tuck [vocals, guitar], Michael "Padge" Paget [guitar], Michael "Moose" Thomas [drums], and Jason James [bass]—fire off an incendiary collection of hard rock anthems with arena-ready bombast and metallic intensity.
After a whirlwind cycle in support of 2010's Fever, the band decided to do something a little different when the time came to record album number four. Quite appropriately on Valentine's Day 2012, Tuck and "Moose" boarded a plane for Thailand. Instead of recording in the U.S. or UK, they collectively hunkered down at Karma Sound Studios in Bang Saray with producer Don Gilmore (Linkin Park, Rob Zombie, Hollywood Undead). The experience proved inspiring and invigorating on numerous levels.
"I had a bit of an idea going into this," smiles Tuck. "It was basically 'record-as-we-go'. There were no writing or demo sessions this time around. I'd just done the same thing with my other band AxeWound, and it was so exciting and productive. So I asked the Bullet boys, 'Can we go somewhere and write and record the album?' We decided on Thailand, and it was the best decision we could've made."
For almost a month, the musicians focused on amping up every element of their patented sound. They didn't want to deviate from the foundation, but rather expand upon it. Despite taking a mere two days off to ride elephants and see tigers in their natural habitat, the setting also allowed for complete immersion in the process.
"It's always wise to step outside of your comfort zone," the frontman continues. "We didn't have to worry about anything. The studio was completely state-of-the-art, and the living quarters were fantastic. We didn't have to deal with any of the pressures or obligations that we do at home. You could wake up in the morning and go for a swim or take a jog down the beach. It was an amazing way to start every day. Everybody was in a great mood. When you're in a great mood, it encourages creativity."
At the same time, they strengthened their bond with Gilmore. After working together on the Fever, the band and producer forged a singular trust that served as an integral part of the actual sessions.
"We've got history," affirms Tuck. "We were more willing to collaborate, and we know how each other work and tick. There's an understanding between us, and that brought confidence out of me. We slowed everything down on this record. We wanted to sound fresher and bigger without playing harder and faster."
"They accomplished that mission on both the album's title track and the first single, "Riot." Beginning with a staggering beat, "Temper Temper" builds into a precise guitar attack coupled with one of the biggest hooks of their career to date.
About the song, Tuck reveals, "I wanted to say something about anger management and temper, but I didn't want to come off negatively. That's the twist. The release of negative energy is great. It feels good when you lose control. It doesn't mean you have to go smash someone's face in. You can kick a soccer ball around a field. You can pick up a guitar and rock out. As long as it's positive, let it come out."
Then, there's "Riot." Slipping from heavy to hypnotic, Tuck reflected upon the 2011 rioting and looting in the United Kingdom within the lyrics.
"The riots were on primetime news constantly," he remembers. "It was crazy how much it impacted the media. I indulged in a bit of a punk rock theme, spicing up the record with the lyrics. There are two things going on in there. The song itself is about those riots, but there's also that hard rock vibe that we'll stick together and rise up."
Everything kicks off with "Breaking Point." Forging a fast and fiery assault, the band bursts right out of the gate with intense, incisive thrashing. The singer goes on, "The song sums up the feeling of the album. Everybody has their breaking point. It's something we all share in common, and I wanted to convey that point."
They've excelled at getting their point across with a bang since forming back in Wales at the turn of the century. In 2006, they became an international phenomenon with the release of their debut album, The Poison, which became certified Gold for sales in excess of 500,000. Their second full-length, Scream Aim Fire, debuted at #4 on the Billboard Top 200.
However, the band would enjoy their highest chart debut with 2010's Fever debuting at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 and #1 on the Rock and Alternative charts. Cumulatively, sales for the group exceed four million worldwide. They've given explosive performances at both Download Festival and The Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival. In addition, the group has been the recipient of the Metal Hammer "Golden God" Award for "Best British" band in 2006 and 2010 and scored an impressive seven Kerrang! Awards.
However, TEMPER TEMPER signals the start of Bullet For My Valentine's biggest and best chapter yet. "We wanted to make songs that would stand the test of time," concludes Tuck. "Every track takes you on a little journey, and that's what music should do for people. We've gone through the stage of having to prove ourselves. We're men now. We want to please ourselves first and hopefully our fan base with what we do. We're not worrying about what critics think or say. We're not interested in genres or labels either. It's about doing what comes naturally. I can sleep at night knowing the boys and I have made the fucking best record we could've."
