The Confusions of Malice
Yes, the sky is falling. Pitcher Micah Owings pinch-hit a dramatic, game-tying homerun; Reverend Wright seems determined to ruin his own agenda and the agenda of Hope politicians en masse; Ronny Cedeno joined Ryan Dempster in predicting a World Series appearance for the sCrUBS; Hillary is still in the race; Roger Clemens can't get away from his tainted past; Bill O'Reilly is still on the air; the Cardinals — winners of an NL best 10 World Series championships — have won more games in April (18) than they have in any season previous and the media still ignores them; I have watched An Inconvenient Truth five times this week; Albert Pujols has reached base in every game so far this season — every game; and my MLBlog partner Allen Krause — a future ambassador for US Americans to the world — wrote something that the most seasoned grammarian could not even begin to understand:
"The closest thing I could come up with is that the enemy of the enemy
of my friend is my friend. But, that's a pretty tenuous connection."
— The Enemy of the Enemy of My Friend? April 29, 2008
Tenuous? Maybe, if we could understand it. Enemy of the enemy of my friend? You were watching a Cubs/Nats game. There was only one enemy (Cubs) of your friend (Me). The enemy of the enemy of your friend would be the Cardinals? But they weren't even playing. The enemy of the enemy of your friend is your friend? Is this the type of head-spinning verbal ping-pongy misspeak my taxes are paying to teach you? Just for that, they should give me a $600 refund every year.
So since you brought it up, Al (or at least it I think you did), let me talk about the Cubs for a second. Please know that my purpose is not to turn Red State Blue State into an all-out Cub-bashing forum. I am smart enough (see Fulbright Scholar for more info) to realize that the Cubs have put together a solid team this year. But for Sports Illustrated editors to plaster "It's Gonna Happen" on the cover and a tag line that says: "Fukudome can end the 100-year wait"?
Excuse me while I go puke.
Fukudome can do it? Really? All by himself? He's the key? Really? What about shoddy defense and crappy pitching? That's what usually loses it for the Cubs. They've been fielding big bats for a long time. Lee, Ramirez, Soriano. How is Fukudome going to come in and save a bullpen infamous for choking late in the game? How is Fukudome going to stop some guy in the left field line seats from going for a foul-ball? How will he then stop the lynching by drunken crazies? Fukudome isn't the answer and he never has been.
And oh yeah, we're only at the end of April, and the Cubs aren't the best team in baseball right now so let's start talking about them winning a World Series already. Yeah, that'd be prudent. Put it on the front page of a sports authority magazine and PRINT IT!
Even more unbelievable is the fact that Chicago Tribune writer Rick Morrissey finally acknowledged that Cub fans might just be as obnoxious as everyone knows they are in this titillating article. My favorite part is where Morrissey says: "It's not always the family atmosphere the organization says it seeks."
Really? You mean cornering a guy wearing the opposing team's jersey in the bathroom and bashing his head on a urinal isn't what the organization seeks? You mean Cub fans jumping the wall to attack their own pitchers isn't desirable? What about throwing beer bottles at right fielders? Is that conducive to a family environment? Thank the gods someone in Chicago (other than me — who can admittedly be a bit overbearing at times) recognizes the ridiculous frat party that Wrigleyville becomes during games. I mean, these are the same family-focussed folks who brought us the "Cuck the Fardinals" t-shirts that show a Cubby bear performing sodomy on a redbird as well as the more recent Fukudome shirts that present a slant eyed Cubby bear donning Haray Caray glasses shouting "Horry Kow". Wow. What a nice way to welcome the man who you say is going to "end the 100-year wait".
Yes. Nothing says 'I love you' like racism.
Don't hate me 'cuz I'm right. Especially on this one.

Oct. 12, 2012 Editorial: Prop B
Sarah Smith, KMBC/KCWE President and General Manager
Proposition B on Missouri's November ballot proposes to raise the tobacco tax to 90 cents per pack.
Right now, Missouri has the lowest tobacco tax rate in the country at 17 cents against the national average of a $1.49.
The projected revenue raised from the tax increase will go toward education, smoking prevention and assistance to quit smoking.
Opponents of Prop B say, "Don't count on more money for Missouri, because this tax will keep Kansas smokers from crossing the state line to buy cigarettes because the Kansas rate is 79 cents."
We support Proposition B. The tax increase probably won't dissuade many smokers from their habit. Research shows that only 4 percent of the overall population would react by quitting. But the added cost may prevent our youth from starting as the same research correlates a reduction of 7 percent in youth smoking for every 10 percent increase in cigarette prices.
Better health is worth the price.

One often comes across actions written with an extra auxiliary field, with respect to which if you vary the action, you get the equation of motion of the auxiliary field, which when plugged into the original action lets you retrieve a more familiar looking action without the auxiliary field. An example is
$\begin{equation*} S=\int d\tau e^{-1}(\tau)\eta_{\mu\nu}\frac{dx^{\mu}}{d\tau}\frac{dx^{\nu}}{d\tau} \end{equation*}$
which when solved for the einbein $e$ gives you the familiar square root form of the action. Why would you want this extra auxiliary field apart from having an action which is not in an annoying square root form? Why, for example, does GSW mention on Page 18 of "Superstring Theory" that "the role of $e(\tau)$ is to ensure the action is invariant under reparametrizations of $\tau$" when you can have reparametrization invariance even in the square root form of the action?

The following is not exactly a research question (it was originated from manufacturing of exercises for calculus), and has no other motivation than explaining a phenomenon. I apologize if it is inappropriate (and will quickly remove it).
Consider the sequence of real numbers defined recursively as follows $$u_0:=\lambda > -1\\ ,$$ $$u_{n+1}=\frac{2u_n}{1+\sqrt{1+2^{-n}u_n}}\\ .$$ Numerical evidence suggests that $u_n$ always converges to $\log(1+\lambda)$. I imagine there should be a simple explanation. How can one prove it?

Nonprofits are breathing a little easier these days, less worried than they had been about Congress capping the charitable tax deduction.
The Chronicle of Philanthropy, citing nonprofit experts, recently reported that the deduction would likely remain intact during the current session of Congress. These observers were less certain about the prospects for other tax breaks that benefit charity, however.
The report said that a change in leadership of the Senate Finance Committee would make changes in the charitable tax deduction this year very remote, as the likely new chairman, Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), is a strong supporter of the deduction.
Experts expected Wyden to move more slowly than his predecessor, Max Baucus (D-Mont.), who had pressed for a major tax overhaul before he retired from Congress in December.
Cobbling together a tax bill this year in the run-up to November midterm elections would be difficult, they said.
"There's zero percent chance any significant tax reform will happen this year," Foundation Source executive vice president Andrew Schulz told The Chronicle.
The reported noted, however, that the absence of a tax bill meant that other tax priorities of nonprofits are in a perilous state.
A big target is a set of some 55 temporary tax breaks — some of which benefit charities — that expired at the end of last year.
The report said Congress has regularly extended these temporary tax breaks, but has sometimes waited until late in the year and then provided the benefits retroactively.
The tax breaks include one that allows people at least 70-1/2 years old to withdraw up to $100,000 from their IRA accounts without an income tax penalty if they roll over the amount to charity.
Observers told The Chronicle that Congress would probably extend the tax breaks again, given the large number of nonprofits that would benefit. But they acknowledged that swift action would be difficult, with political tensions between Democrats and Republicans expected to heat up in coming months.
That means the tax breaks would be passed later in the year, which would dilute the effectiveness of some benefits, such as the IRA rollover.
"The donors that are incentivized to make the IRA rollover are trying to make some pretty complicated financial decisions," Steve Taylor, a public policy executive at United Way Worldwide, told The Chronicle.
"By that time, they've already withdrawn the money and done something else with it."
Nonprofit leaders said the uncertainty surrounding the IRA rollover tax break made it difficult to solicit donations from donors who might not otherwise make gifts.

Michelle Obama rarely mentions Mitt Romney by name. But everything she says during this presidential campaign is meant to draw a contrast between her husband and his Republican challenger.
She implies that Romney, who had a privileged upbringing, can't relate when she tells middle-class voters that President Barack Obama understands their economic struggles because he has struggled too. And she suggests Romney would have other priorities when she says her husband's empathy will result in a second-term agenda focused squarely on middle-class economic security.
The first lady will make her case to millions of Americans on Tuesday when she headlines the first night of the Democratic Party's national convention, where two days later her husband will accept the party's presidential nomination for a second time. Her high-profile appearance underscores her key role in his re-election bid: chief defender of his character and leader in efforts to validate the direction he is taking the country.
"I am going to remind people about the values that drive my husband to do what he has done and what he is going to do for the next four years," Mrs. Obama said of her speech during an interview with SiriusXM radio host Joe Madison.
The president said he planned to watch his wife's speech from the White House with the couple's two daughters.
"I'm going to try to not let them see their daddy cry because when Michelle starts talking, I start getting all misty," Obama said at rally in Norfolk, Va.
Mrs. Obama is also expected to introduce her husband Thursday night when he accepts the Democratic nomination before a crowd of up to 74,000 and a television audience of millions across the country.
Once the reluctant political spouse, Mrs. Obama has embraced that mission to sell her husband anew throughout the summer while raising money for the campaign and speaking at rallies in battleground states.
These days, Mrs. Obama's speeches are peppered with references to the president's upbringing in Hawaii, where he was raised by a single mother and his grandparents. She talks about the student loans he took out to pay for college and the years it took to pay them back.
When Romney accused Obama of running a "campaign of hate," the first lady delivered Obama's strongest counterpoint — without mentioning the Republican candidate.
"We all know who my husband is, don't we? And we all know what he stands for," she said, standing alongside the president at a campaign rally in Iowa.
Key to Mrs. Obama's campaign strategy is maintaining her own personal appeal.
Anita McBride, who served as first lady Laura Bush's chief of staff, said that means staying away from the vitriol that has permeated the White House campaign.
"There are plenty of attack dogs in this campaign," McBride said. "She doesn't need to be one of them."
In many ways, the first lady's challenge Tuesday night will be more difficult than it was when she spoke at the 2008 Democratic convention. Back then, her mission was to vouch for her husband's personal qualities. This time around, she also has to persuade voters to stick with him amid high unemployment and sluggish economic growth.
Many Americans didn't know Mrs. Obama and some viewed her suspiciously before the 2008 convention. Republicans had questioned her patriotism throughout the campaign because she told voters during the primary that "for the first time in my adult lifetime, I'm really proud of my country."
Her convention speech sought to put those issues to rest. She declared "I love this country" and used personal stories about her marriage to assure voters they had nothing to fear about her and her husband's values.
Since moving into the White House, Mrs. Obama has focused on tackling childhood obesity and assisting military families. She's largely steered clear of her husband's political battles, at least in public.
But behind the scenes, she's a sounding board for her husband on pressing policy matters. She also has increasingly promoted his health care overhaul after it was upheld by the Supreme Court.
Aides say she will sprinkle her remarks Tuesday with a defense of the president's policies, including the health care law and the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which was the first legislation Obama signed into law. The act makes it easier for women to sue for equal pay if they earn less than their male counterparts. Obama has made the law a key part of his election-year appeal to women, who could give him an edge over Romney in a tight race.
The first lady arrived in Charlotte on Monday and informally rehearsed at the Time Warner Cable Arena. She also taped interviews for entertainment programs that will air before her speech.
Mrs. Obama is staying in Charlotte during the three-day convention and will focus on shoring up support for her husband among key constituencies. She plans to speak to the party's African-American, Hispanic and women's caucuses and address a gay and lesbian luncheon. Along with the vice president's wife, Jill Biden, the first lady will also participate in an armed services event Thursday and put together care packages for U.S. troops serving overseas.
The Obamas' two young daughters are also expected to join them on stage during the convention's closing night, leaving voters with fresh images of the photogenic family.

SACRAMENTO, June 21 (UPI) -- California's controller said Tuesday state lawmakers must forfeit their pay because the budget they passed last week was not balanced.
Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed the budget less than 24 hours after it was passed June 15, with lawmakers meeting a constitutional deadline for only the second time in 25 years.
In a statement released by his office, Controller John Chiang said his analysis of the state budget shows the spending plan was incomplete and unbalanced. His analysis sought to determine whether the budget met the requirements of Proposition 25 and Proposition 58, which forfeit legislative pay if a balanced budget is not passed by June 15, the statement said.
"My office's careful review of the recently passed budget found components that were miscalculated, miscounted or unfinished," Chiang said. "The numbers simply did not add up, and the Legislature will forfeit (its) pay until a balanced budget is sent to the governor."
Proposition 25, titled the On-Time Budget Act of 2010, was approved by voters Nov. 2. The initiative lowered the vote requirement for passing a budget from two-thirds to a simple majority without lowering the two-thirds vote required for tax increases, Chiang's office said. It also forfeits legislators' pay and living expenses incurred from June 16 until "the day that the budget bill is presented to the governor."
The constitutional provision says "the Legislature may not send to the governor" an unbalanced budget.
The controller's analysis found the recently vetoed budget committed the state to $89.75 billion in spending, but only provided $87.9 billion in revenues, leaving an imbalance of $1.85 billion.
The Los Angeles Times said Chiang's decision is widely expected to provoke a lawsuit. Lawmakers had begun questioning his authority over pay even before his decision.

Few things liven up an outfit like minimalist, geometric jewelry, so we've got a hunch that Brooklyn local Jeanette Lai Thomas' handcrafted debut collection, Moratorium, will be our go-to provider for wear-with-everything pieces come fall.
Culling inspiration from the Egyptian pyramids' complex feats of engineering and simplistic structure, Thomas' signature shape is the cut-away pyramid, creating a geometric skeleton of sorts. The line — for men and women — is already sparking buzz for its attention to detail and handmade design, welded exclusively in precious metals, which are sourced for their longevity (and lust-factor!). Thomas added to Vogue that she prefers to work with these materials because "true quality and workmanship should stand the test of time." Kind of like the Great Pyramids, right?
Moratorium will be hitting Occulter some time in the next two weeks and will be sold at Opening Ceremony come fall, so be ready to buy, buy, buy and then wear, well, forever.

AutoZone carries hundreds of thousands of parts and accessories.
Select your Year, Make, Model and Engine to find those that fit your vehicle.
Vehicle efficiency is great for everyone- you, your vehicle and the environment. If you don't have fresh air injecting into the exhaust stream, your car isn't getting its complete combustion of exhaust gases and reduced emissions.

With a highly efficient vehicle, we know you're a happy driver. Without a functioning air pump, your vehicle can't run as great as it could be- whether your engine is cold or warm, your air pump is working hard to give you the smoothest ride possible. If your engine is cold, the smog pump adds extra air to lean out the mixture and burn off some of the raw fuel. If your engine is warm, the smog pump diverts air directly to the catalytic converter to supply extra oxygen to convert CO to CO2. AutoZone has all the parts you need when it comes time to replace air pumps. Whether you need a Dodge Dakota air pump or a secondary air injection pump for Chevy Camaro, we have you covered.

Envista necesitaba un nuevo diseño de impreso o envases y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 18 diseños de 6 diseñadores freelance.
Felicity and Lily
My sister recently had twin daughters and I would like to put together a photographic journal of their first months as an extra special Birthday/Christmas present for the new family. I have had a go at picking up InDesign myself but I would like your help to do the job properly.
These beautiful little girls had a difficult start to life due to the nature of the delivery and so they are all the more precious to the whole family. We would like to give them a fitting reminder that they will be able to treasure for their whole lives.
We are a small British family from the North of England. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me directly.
The two girls of course, very close friends and family members only.
Felicity and Lily are the twin girls who the journal will be following. Since the birth, several months ago, Mum and Dad have been using Twitter and TwitPic to record all of the developments. There are now several hundred "tweets" and a few dozen photographs to be inserted into the journal.
What I would like is to design a template for the journal including a cover, table of contents, a foreword and a variety of general page templates that feature different arrangements of Tweets* and photographs. If you are not familiar with Twitter and Tweets, you can treat them as very short 140ish character messages that should be displayed with a time stamp.
Due to privacy reasons, I cannot share the complete index of messages or photographs but I shall include some specimens for you to test out your concept with. The page designs should be classic, elegant, feminine in a subtle way (so no hot pinks). Pastel shades on the other hand would be good. Roses and Lilies in the design would also be very popular.
I would like to see at least 5 different page layouts (not counting the cover/foreword/table of contents) and I will insert the content myself.
These should be very simple, one might be a full page picture, another might be four text boxes with one "tweet" in each. The others will probably be a combination of pictures, tweets and any other text boxes or artwork that you would like to add.
There will be a very low density of printed text on any one page. Just a few tweets perhaps supplemented by another text box with a one paragraph commentary with some background information.
I have enclosed the specifications for the book printing process, either of these sizes would be acceptable.
What other questions do you have?

Huge New York law firm Dewey & LaBoeuf is about to shut down, after boss Steven Davis bankrupted the firm by giving lawyers multi-million dollar guarantees that the company couldn't afford.
That was of course moronic:
Davis bet the firm and lost.
But Barry Ritholtz reminds us of another dumb mistake the firm made:
It didn't borrow hundreds of billions of dollars from pension funds, insurance companies, and other investors and use the money to make a lot of idiotic loans and pay its lawyers huge bonuses.
If Dewey had done that, it would have become Too Big To Fail.
And the government would have bailed it out.
And all the lawyers would get to keep their huge bonuses as well as their jobs--just like all the bankers at the Wall Street firms that bet their companies and lost.
Instead, Dewey is just going bust.
How dumb can you be?
* We jest, of course. This just reveals how fantastically stupid our country's Too Big To Fail policy is. It undermines the basic tenet of capitalism: When you do something stupid, you pay the price.

At Willamette, we specialize in cultural anthropology, attracting dynamic, globally minded and highly engaged student-scholars.
While students examine the great diversity of cultures in the world, they learn reflexively about themselves, and about what most take for granted or assume to be "right" or "correct" ways of being and living.
Anthropology faculty teach courses on and conduct research in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Native North America. They specialize in cross-cultural, comparative analysis of health and healing, migration, music and performance, peace and war, language and communication, and art and material culture.

I have been inspired by the blog "SaveEveryStep" to blog and link up weekly with her blog about family memories. I am way behind and so will try to post several posts a week until I catch up. Here is her summary of the series.
"As you know by now, my obsession is the preservation of our family stories and memories for future generations. Our children are unlikely to ever ask us about our past until they themselves feel a sense of mortality, by which time it may well be too late, as I found to my cost. The photographs of family times past may sit in their box, but they lack narrative and context which I am unable to provide since I was either too young to remember the occasion, or simply not there.
It is a parent's obligation to capture for safe-keeping the memories which we make with our children each and every day as they grow and learn. Our legacy for them, all laid out in pictures and words."

If you have ever seen a Currier & Ives holiday greeting card— snow on the roof of a Victorian house, a wreath at the door and a Christmas tree glowing warmly in the front bay window — then you can picture the home of Michael Sotir and his wife, Carolyn Black-Sotir.
The Sotirs live in a three-story, turn-of-the-century structure fashioned of cedar siding, with a wrap-around front porch, floor to ceiling front windows and a slate roof. And while the holiday season is still weeks away, the glow of autumn foliage embraces the home in the Sudbrook Park neighborhood just northwest of Baltimore.
The couple had lived in Bolton Hill until 1989, and with their first child on the way, they decided it was time to purchase a single-family home. Michael Sotir — now owner of Blue Print Builders — had worked in historic renovation and the two wanted a house and a neighborhood with history.
"I will never forget driving slowly through the neighborhood in awe of the beautiful old homes, and then my heart skipped a beat when I saw a "for sale" sign in the yard ahead of me," Carolyn Black-Sotir remembered. "As I drove towards the house, it slowly revealed itself in all of its splendor."
Four months after that first visit, the stately Victorian, built in 1897 and designed by Baltimore architect George Archer, became the property of the Sotirs at a cost of $269,000. They were, amazingly, only the third owners.
While the three-story, 6,000-square-foot house was certainly livable, it wasn't long before the couple realized what a mammoth challenge they had taken on to make their historic house a home. Looking back on it 22 years later, they marvel at the fruits of their labor.
"We wanted to preserve the beauty and the charm but also update [the house] in order to enjoy the comforts of a modern home," explained Michael Sotir, who estimates that the cost of updating, renovation, repair and maintenance easily exceeded the original purchase price.
The couple, while raising their family of three boys, landscaped outdoors and added new cedar shakes on the exterior structure, while tackling interior updates such as heating, plumbing and electrical. Additionally, they undertook a complete kitchen remodel and installed state-of-the-art showers in two of the home's four full bathrooms and new fixtures in the first-floor powder room.
The heart of the Victorian's interior needed no makeover. Its decor, decidedly late 19th century with arts and crafts accents, basks in the warmth of old wood, built-in bookshelves, leaded windows with wavy glass, heavy pocket doors and eight working fireplaces. The house has six second-floor bedrooms, that, like the rooms on the first floor, enjoy an open, circular flow. The third floor houses office space.
The home's grand entrance hall has the feel of an English country manor house, with tapestry fabric on the walls, chestnut trim around doors, rich pine flooring, a built-in seat under mullioned windows and a magnificent chestnut staircase leading to the open hall of the second floor. Rooms are masculine in feel, cradled in the richness of wood paneling and furniture pieces above which hang original paintings in gilt frames.
The dining room, with it walls painted a deep raspberry is formally furnished with an eclectic suite whose common denominator is the deep patina of the wood, from mahogany to oak. Four throne-like carved chairs flank an oblong table, looking much like a dining hall in a Tudor estate.
A music room features a grand piano and the living room appears right out of academia, with tall bookshelves against carved paneling, a table set for study and leather furniture placed around a roaring fire in an Italian molded brick fireplace.
"Yes, this could be a library room at Harvard or a gentleman's club," said Carolyn Black-Sotir, a professional vocalist and teacher. "We have learned to be very resourceful in furnishing the rooms. We are big on reuse."
The couple points out that their furnishings are a result of 22 years of diligently hitting the auction houses and consignment shops. They have also made use of connections in the building business. For example, the kitchen's warm maple cabinets and spacious center island are the handiwork of an Amish cabinetmaker contracted to Blue Print Builders.
The couple also turned some of the quirky aspects of the house to their advantage, such as a parking lot behind the home that the previous owners installed to accommodate cars when the home was rented out for weddings. A perfect place for their boys to play when they were little, the area has found a new life, as what Carolyn Black-Sotir calls "a dream refigured."
"Gone is our parking pad on steroids," She laughed. "Instead I have a bluestone patio with a fountain and gardens."
The house today, not too far off from the home it was in the bygone days of Currier & Ives Christmases, still gives the couple pause over 100 years later, as they both remark, one after the other: "This is a house with a personality. It's a great holiday house."

Building the dream
Dream element: The Sotirs' stately Victorian home sits on two acres in the charming and historic neighborhood of Sudbrook Park. In speaking of its location, Carolyn Black-Sotir said she finds that the area has many advantages. "We are located just one mile over the city/county line and one mile from the Beltway, which gives us quick and easy access to Washington D.C. and Baltimore," she said, "we are within walking distance of the metro, which runs directly to Johns Hopkins."
Exterior design: The three-story Victorian is built of cedar shakes and clapboard with a slate roof. Floor to ceiling windows open onto a wrap-around porch. Old trees surround the house.
Interior design: Taking their cue from the fairly undisturbed interior, the Sotirs built upon the existing wood original to the home. Leather furniture enhances the built-in pieces. The second floor's open hallway with its circular flow allows for set furniture pieces. The walls are painted an old gold shade that both brightens the area and serves as a handsome backdrop for hung paintings and tapestries. One of the first things Michael Sotir built was a skylight on the third level hall to add brightness to the area.
If you have ever seen a Currier & Ives holiday greeting card— snow on the roof of a Victorian house, a wreath at the door and a Christmas tree glowing warmly in the front bay window — then you can picture the home of Michael Sotir and his wife, Carolyn Black-Sotir.

When Marty arrives in 2015, he walks down an alley, the clock tower directly ahead of him. As he turns the corner, you can see the UNIGLOBE Travel location on the left of the screen.
UNIGLOBE Travel is one of the first stores that Marty McFly sees as he walks into Hill Valley in 2015.
When Marty arrives in 2015, he walks down an alley, the clock tower directly ahead of him. As he turns the corner, you can see the UNIGLOBE Travel location on the left of the screen. A minute later, after Marty is "attacked" by the hologram shark from Jaws 19, he turns to face the UNIGLOBE locations again. It is then seen at various times throughout the hoverboard chase scene.
Back in 1989, the producers of the movie series were designing the set for Hill Valley in 2015. They wanted to show the future of various industries, as you can see from the automated gas station. The producers approached UNIGLOBE Travel about being featured in the Hill Valley set.
The 1955 and 1985 sets featured Ask Mr. Foster Travel Service - a storied name in the history of travel. UNIGLOBE Travel was pleased to be participate to represent the future of travel.

Oh Battlefield, I love you so much, but you are so wonky. The first expansion has been out for less than a day and someone already got trapped in an invisible mountain. Luckily, the results are pretty entertaining.
Battlefield 4's first expansion, China Rising, is out today for Premium users. YouTuber xFactorgaming was playing it, spawned on a mountain, and found he couldn't hit an enemy below him. So he drops down to the ground and finds that he not only can't hit the enemy, but he can't be hit because he's trapped behind an invisible wall. The situation gets funny as enemies swarm trying to find a way to kill him while being told by Mr. Factor that they just have bad aim.

"Twerking" is the latest dance craze. And by that we mean Miley Cyrus is quite fond of posting videos of herself doing it.
But the administration at Scripps Ranch High School in San Diego are not fond of Twerking. In fact they just suspended 33 students for their own video of the dance, which they claim involves a female "shaking their hips and bottom in a bouncy up and down motion, causing it to 'wobble' and 'jiggle,' often while a male observes the gyrations." That's…pretty accurate actually.
According to a school spokesperson this violates school policy which forbids "verbal, visual, or physical conduct of a sexual nature made by someone from or in the educational setting."
You see the problem was the students made the video on school grounds, possibly using school equipment. Then they put it up on YouTube.
In addition to missing a few school days, six of the suspended students are seniors and won't be able to attend graduation or prom, which would seem like the perfect venue to show off their latest "Twerks."
What do you think? Fair punishment? The video in question was recently removed from YouTube, but if you want to get a better idea of the dance you can check out Miley Twerking — while dressed as a unicorn for some reason — below.

This is a question in the area of extraterrestrial life. While life may be possible without it, space travel is probably impossible without metal. Metal is created in stars and heavy metals (above iron) are created in super novae.
In a German posting, someone mentioned that there are only very few stars outside of the galactic core which contain a lot of metal. There is little hope for life in the core itself but if metal is so rare outside the core, that surely limits the options for aliens to build civilizations.
My question: We can easily measure the amount of metal in a star by looking at its spectrum. Does that give a good indication of the metal distribution of dark bodies? Is there a theory about the relation between elements in the star and its planets?
I also read somewhere that there seem to be a lot of "free" planets (which don't orbit a sun). Does this also apply to them?

SEATTLE (AP) — George Springer hit the first pitch he saw in three days for a home run.
The Houston rookie right fielder wasn't done, hitting another later in the game to help power the Astros past the Seattle Mariners 9-4 on Saturday night.
"That's pretty impressive, to sit out a couple games then the first pitch you see, you take it out the opposite way," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "That's definitely good to see."
Springer injured his right hip flexor on a ninth-inning pickoff play Wednesday in Anaheim. He then sat out the first two games of this series, both Seattle victories. But after Jose Altuve walked to open the game, Springer hit a 90-mph fastball from Brandon Maurer (1-3) into the right-field seats.
He also connected on a 1-1 cutter from Maurer for another two-run homer in the Astros' five-run sixth. He added an RBI in the sixth for a career-high five, in his 33rd big league game.
Oberholtzer (1-6), recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City before the game, allowed two runs in the first, and then settled in, retiring 10 straight during one stretch. He finished with three runs allowed — two earned — with one walk and a career-high eight strikeouts.
"He did a great job of attacking the strike zone," Porter said. "He did a good job pitching in. When he pitched his first stint here, he had gotten away from his effectiveness, on the inner-third of the plate. He got that back today and really attacked both sides."
In his only other start against Seattle on Sept. 1 last season, Oberholtzer threw a complete-game shutout, allowing four hits, walking one and striking out five. He is 2-0 with a 1.20 ERA in 15 innings against Seattle.
"I felt I pitched good," Oberholtzer said. "Before the game, I told myself, whatever happens, happens. Throw strikes and have fun. It's been a while since I've had fun."
Maurer went 4 1-3 innings for the Mariners, allowing six runs on six hits. He walked one and struck out two.
The Mariners rallied for two runs in the bottom of the first inning. Stefen Romero walked, then Robinson Cano singled to right. Cano has reached base safely in 31 consecutive games, hitting .372 with 11 extra-base hits and 20 RBI during the streak. It is the longest streak of his career, and longest active in the majors.
Justin Smoak followed with a single, loading the bases for Kyle Seager, who bounced a potential double-play grounder to first. But first baseman Marc Krauss threw wildly to second, allowing Romero and Cano to score.
After Springer's first homer, Maurer then retired the next 11 straight, nine on flyballs. But the Astros rocked him in the fifth.
Chris Carter opened with a double to left and Alex Presley singled to right, with Carter holding at third. Jonathan Villar bounced a grounder to Cano, who tried to start 4-6-3 double play but bobbled the ball and settled for a Presley tagout as Carter scored.
Altuve singled to right and Villar, running on the pitch, scored from first to make it 4-2. Springer followed with his sixth home run on a 1-1 fastball from Maurer into the left-field bullpen.
"He's unbelievable," Springer said of Altuve. "When he goes, our offense goes. He's always on base. He's a big guy for us. I'm happy to hit behind him and happy to play with him. He can run and with him on base, it makes it easier for me to be more selective and still aggressive.
"The home runs were all on him. He got me in a good hitting count and we go from there."
Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said Maurer has had "a few times where he is on a run and one thing or another goes wrong and he doesn't seem to get it back together."
Asked about that, Maurer said: "I lost conviction. I wasn't throwing with confidence in my pitches. I don't know, it just went away, I guess."
Tom Wilhelmsen entered and yielded an RBI single to Krauss as the Astros matched their season high for runs in an inning. It also was the most runs allowed in an inning by the Mariners this season.
The Astros scored two more in the sixth, one on a wild pitch by Wilhelmsen and the other on Springer's RBI groundout. Wilhelmsen had entered with a 13 2-3-inning consecutive scoreless streak.
The Mariners added a run in the sixth on Michael Saunders' bases-loaded groundout. In the eighth, John Buck's groundout sent Kyle Seager home from third.
NOTES: RHP Taijuan Walker, sidelined since spring training with a sore shoulder, likely will be sent out on a rehab assignment Wednesday. He will start for Triple-A Tacoma and be limited to 75 pitches. "I'm excited to get back there Wednesday, get into my regular five-day routine again," Walker said. Walker is the Mariners' top pitching prospect. . Oberholtzer was recalled before the game with LHP Rudy Owens, who started Friday and optioned back to Triple-A Oklahoma City. Astros manager Bo Porter said the spot starts by Oberholtzer and Owens "allows all those guys (regular starters) to get an extra day rest. It just makes good sense to take care of the guys who've been so good for us all year." ... It was a "Turn Back the Clock" night for the Mariners, back to 1979. NBA great Lenny Wilkens, coach of the city's only major championship that year, tossed out the first pitch. Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon caught it. ... James Jones' single in the second extended his hitting streak to 14 games. It's also a continuing club rookie record for his first 14 career starts.

We are a women owned company who spent 2 years designing and developing AmiGlowz. We are very passionate about the site and its success. We created AmiGlowz as a socialization website where people could search for other users with the same or similar goals. This way they could inspire and support each other towards their success.
We are also in the process of updating our Home page content to reflect our new focus on women and goal setting.
We need to build a relationship with a designer for future projects. We have one other besides the logo at this time.
Our new focus is to steer AmiGlowz to a women only goal setting website.
AmiGlowz is a goal setting community where people can inspire and support each other.
We need to come up with a more professional, clean logo for our website which flows with our current website design and colors.
We have also changed our target market and will focus on women goal setters. We do not want the logo to "scream" women, but our message is that AmiGlowz is a community for goal setting to support and inspire one another.
Possibly incorporate text with a graphic(s) that speaks to what our site is about. We are open to someones creative ideas though, never say never!
Concept behind the website name:
Ami = friends
Glowz = energy and passion for success
Blue - Same as the blue body text used on our site (1e3d9b)
(maybe) Green
Font: Open to ideas. Nothing childish or cartoon-like
New tagline under logo: Goal Setting Community for Women
The files we will require are:
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)
The register trademark symbol ® will have to be added to the slected design.
We need to build a relationship with a designer for future projects. We have one other besides the logo at this time.
Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo

zvikico necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.

Simple yet innovative, cool yet professional. We need an awesome logo that just works. Like nWire.
Update 3:
We are going to extend the contest for a few days. The purpose is mainly to let us form an opinion on our main contenders. We might ask the designers of the leading designs to fine-tune their work.
We cannot block new designs, however, if we didn't specifically ask for a new revision from you on an existing design, please save your energy and refrain from submitting new designs.
nWire is software development tool. It is a plug-in (extension) for the Eclipse development platform. The tool analyzes the application code, makes sense of the different components (artifacts) and their connections and uses the information in a number of tools: code exploration, search and visualization. Please visit http://www.nwiresoftware.com and watch the demo before entering.
The name nWire is derived from the concept of Wiring application components together. Modern applications are built from thousand of small components, bound together in a complex mesh, to produce the desired functionality. nWire focuses on the associations between the components. It shows the bigger picture of the application: how everything connects together.
nWire is smart yet simple. It is a practical tool that just works. I like the simple, pragmatic approach very much. nWire is ideal for understanding and reading code. Many times, developers are lost in huge systems. nWire is the answer for that. It is a true productivity booster.
I need an awesome logo for nWire. To be clear - the product is called nWire and the company is nWire Software LTD (the nWire brand is the one that matters here)
- Logo that can work on our web site header and marketing emails. The logo will also be used for business cards, brochures, letterheads, etc.
- The logo should be a combination of graphics and the "nWire" text. The nWire text should appear as it is on our site (small n, Capital W, Wire is bold, the n is bigger to match the W height).
- The Logo should work on white background. However, our site header is currently blue, so it should work there, too. The site design may be updated in the near future, but we prefer lighter colors as background.
- The size should be about the same as on our site. We prefer somethingwhich is about square, so it can work as an avatar and favicon, too. Itis possible to give a square graphical logo without the text, and addthe text to create the full site logo.
- The product is part of the Eclipse ecosystem, thus, it may (not necessarily) take inspiration from Eclipse logos and related artwork. Also, check out some additional artwork around the Eclipse site (see the downloads page, users, etc). It should be more innovative, though (less pastel colors)
- This goes for fonts as well. The Eclipse font logo is good for us, too (used Helvetica Neue for current "logo"). Need not be the same, but close.
- We prefer AI format, but if that's a problem, we're open to suggestions.
- Something too flashy or extravagant. Simple.
- NO Clipart, must be original
- NO Recycled logos
- Please no references to Java specifically. The tool is currently for Java, but the offering will be extended in the near future.
