Oh I love the little cucumber/carrot wands. Such a sweet idea, go Mom!
I so wanted to take part in MTM for the first time this week. I even went and bought me a 6-cavity muffin tin. But I had plans already which I'd forgotten about until last minute *pout* I think it is a fantastic idea for kids and want to do it next week for sure.

Test scores at this school are about the same as the state average, though still below the top-performing schools in the state. Because test scores in some states are so low, many students at this school may not be performing at grade level.
Parent tips
Ask the school what it's doing to help students who are behind. Understand what on-track learning looks like, and ask the school what it's doing to accelerate progress for students.
Disadvantaged students at this school are performing better than other students in the state, though this school may still have achievement gaps.
Parent tip:
Schools that close the gap between different student groups are doing something right! Explore the Race/ethnicity and Low-income sections below to learn more. Start a... More conversation with a teacher or a fellow parent about how this school is helping all its students succeed – and how can you help.

Wacom Bamboo Stylus for iPad Review/
Everyone and their mother wants a stylus these days. And who's to blame them when so many great new apps like Paper for iPad make it all that more enticing to start using a stylus. There's a stylus out there that's considered to be the elite of all that's styli, it's called the Bamboo stylus by Wacom. Wacom's vast expertise in making professional digital styli and pen tablets has a lot to say about the success of the Bamboo stylus. What do we have to say about it? Catch our full review down below!
The Bamboo stylus isn't expensive, and it isn't exactly cheap at $29.95. Considering the final product for which you pay $30 for, the Bamboo is priced right compared to its competitors. It comes in six good looking, vibrant colors including this black and silver color scheme we're reviewing that'll make you want to collect them all. Nothing else is included with the Bamboo out of the box e.g., storage pouch and extra tips which we will further elaborate on later.
We reviewed a few good styluses before, but we think we've found a true winner this time around. Wacom's Bamboo stylus isn't only the perfect stylus for the iPad, it's the best stylus we've tested. And that comes to no surprise considering the amount of popularity it has gotten these past months from just about everyone including the company behind the amazing iOS app, Paper. When you're past scribbling and messing around with your finger, a stylus is what you should be looking to get when you want to expand into finer detail and have a more flowing comfortable experience. Ideally the Bamboo for all intents and purposes.
Everything about the Bamboo stylus is perfect. There is no comparing it to other styli, purely because of how well designed it is. It looks beautiful, elegant and something you'd want to pick up and use. Our first impressions when we first took out the Bamboo from within the packaging, it felt unlike any other stylus that we've gotten to test out even though it isn't made from unheard of materials.
The Bamboo stylus has a rounded, pen shaped body that's made entirely out of aluminum for a superior build quality from top to bottom that feels like it has been built to last a lifetime. It has a beautiful satin finish with a calm matte texture. The fit and finish is fantastic, the best we've ever felt and that's important in a stylus for obvious reasons. Wacom did an amazing job giving the Bamboo a perfect weight that isn't hefty but just right. It's also not too long nor too short and will fit in most hands very comfortably.
When you start using the Bamboo, you'll notice that it becomes very fluid and the rubber tip smoothly glides across the glass requiring very little force to be applied. The tip does smoosh quite a bit and is not firm. Its 6mm wide capacitive rubber tip is smaller than most giving you that ability to write in detail, draw and sketch better and more precise. It really is suitable for every task you have at hand. One of the most daunting tasks of all is hand writing using a stylus, and the Bamboo handles that very well to a point where you can actually use it for more than quickly jotting down notes. Although I do prefer typing myself instead of using a stylus. But for those who do a lot more than writing down ideas, the Bamboo just works and is very enjoyable to use.
This is the first aluminum stylus we've seen to have an inconspicuous grip without actually using a form of rubber grip. The entire black aluminum surface has tremendous gripping characteristics that make holding the stylus extremely comfortable for extensive use.
It's the little things that help make the Bamboo a really great stylus to own. Both the pocket clip and rubber tip are easily removable by unscrewing the metal hardware as you would a normal pen. I expected at least one replacement rubber tip to be included in the box for when the time comes to replace your worn out one with a fresh one, but instead, Wacom decided to put together a 3-pack replacement kit for $5. That's a fair price especially if you don't plan on plowing with your Bamboo stylus all day long, every day. Notably, the only stylus that we reviewed to have include an extra rubber tip was the AluPen Pro stylus by Just Mobile.
We suggest that you keep that pocket slip attached though. We discovered a neat ability when using Apple's Smart Case with the iPad. The Bamboo's stainless steal pocket clip magnetically attaches to the strong magnets inside the Smart Case and can securely cling on for transport without falling off. Note that this will not work if you're using a Smart Cover.
All in all Wacom has done one excellent job with the Bamboo stylus. It's one, if not the best all around iPad stylus currently on the market. We literally haven't found any negatives to say about the Bamboo stylus itself, it's only a shame Wacom didn't toss in an extra rubber tip for good measure. The Bamboo's excess amounts of suave design tossed with a perfect balanced form factor and wonderful accurate and comfortable performance, it's our choice for a solid go-to capacitive stylus. At $30 you are getting what you pay for, superb quality.
If you're looking to get the most out of using a stylus with some true pen action, we recommend that you take a look at the Bamboo stylus pen hybrid brother, Wacom's latest Bamboo Duo stylus featuring a traditional ink pen tip at $40.

Hey Matt..
I figured you should have more "concerned fan"-type posts on your message boards, considering I'm a concerned fan and all. How're your wrists doing? I'm intrigued by the sudden emergence of new comics on your Soupstock and Revolt (now S.U.C.K. apparently...) pages, as well as just enduring withdrawl from Matt Wilson comicky goodness. I'm curious to know when you think you might be back in business again.

Top-ranked Rafael Nadal and No. 2 Novak Djokovic will renew their rivalry in the Italian Open final on Sunday.
There will be an enticing women's championship too, with top-ranked Serena Williams to face Sara Errani, the tournament's first Italian finalist in nearly 30 years.
Having been stretched to three sets in his opening three matches this week, Nadal finally put in a complete performance with a 6-2, 6-2 win over Grigor Dimitrov in the semifinals on Saturday.
"Today was a good confirmation that I really played better. … A lot of positive things," Nadal said. "[Djokovic] is playing great and it's going to be a really tough match."
Earlier, Djokovic took his time before figuring out Milos Raonic's massive serve for a 6-7 (5), 7-6 (4), 6-3 victory in the last key clay-court tuneup before the French Open starts next weekend.
Nadal holds a 22-18 career edge vs. Djokovic but the Serb won their last meeting for the Sony Open title in March in Key Biscayne, Florida.
Nadal already has a record seven titles in Rome, while Djokovic is seeking his third championship at the Foro Italico. They have met in three finals here, with Nadal winning two of them.
Williams overcame a second-set lapse to beat Ana Ivanovic, 6-1, 3-6, 6-1, and gain a measure of revenge for a fourth-round loss to the Serb at this year's Australian Open.
Using vocal crowd support to her advantage, Errani fought back from a 4-1 deficit in the second set for a 6-3, 7-5 win over two-time Rome champion Jelena Jankovic.
Williams is aiming for her third Rome title, having won this clay-court tuneup for Roland Garros in 2002 and last year. The American is 6-0 in her career against Errani and lost just one game in their last meeting, in the semifinals of last year's French Open.
"She's just taken her game to a whole new level and she has so much confidence beating two really good top-10 players and two really great clay-court players," Williams said, also referring to Errani's win over second-seeded Li Na in the quarterfinals. "So I have a lot of work to do tomorrow. It's not going to be easy. And she has nothing to lose and she has the crowd behind her. So it's going to be a really tough match for me."
Nadal went the distance against Gilles Simon, Mikhail Youzhny and Andy Murray in his opening rounds this week but had relatively little trouble against Dimitrov, who was playing in his first Masters series semifinal.
Djokovic's win was a struggle, with Raonic serving near 140 mph and firing 16 aces.
"I can't recall the last time when I was feeling so helpless in the return games," Djokovic said. "It was brutal."
Afterward, Djokovic appealed for help for his flood-hit native Serbia, and wrote a message of support on a camera lens, adding `I love you' in Cyrillic.
"This is a total catastrophe of biblical proportions," he said. "Half the country is in danger of not having electricity."
Errani drew emotion from the crowd.
"There were a few moments when I thought I might not pull it off but the fans were huge," said Errani, who is attempting to become the first Italian to win the tournament since Raffaella Reggi took the 1985 title in Taranto.
The last Italian man to win was Adriano Panatta back in 1976.
It's already Errani's best result since reaching the 2012 French Open final.
Jankovic, the 2007 and 2008 Rome champion, repeatedly asked the chair umpire to come down and check marks but none of them were overturned, resulting only in the crowd stepping up its encouragement for Errani.
"Just do it, Sara. Just do it, Sara," the fans cheered late in the second set.
The highly partisan crowd frequently applauded Errani while points were still being played and cheered even when Jankovic double-faulted.
"(The crowd) was all on her side but it's normal, she's the local player," Jankovic said. "I tried to stay focused on my game, and play my tennis but she was the better player today."

Have you noticed lately that a lot more audio manufacturers have been talking about efficiency? In a car stereo amplifier, we measure efficiency by comparing the amount of power consumed (in watts) from the battery, versus the amount of power (also in watts) delivered to the loudspeakers. The difference between the two numbers is the amount of power wasted in the generation of heat. Traditional Class AB amplifiers are notorious power wasters, particularly at fractional power levels, where we do the majority of our listening (ie: When a 200 watt amp is operating at 20 watts of output). At these levels, most Class AB amplifiers are less than 20% efficient, which means more than 80% of the current consumed is simply wasted as heat. Lots of heat generation requires large heatsinks, which translate to bigger amplifier sizes, and higher prices.
With the advent of high performance silicon integrated circuits and very fast transistors, it has become possible to build much more efficient Class D amplifiers that have full range audio capability. These designs benefit from dramatically improved power efficiency at all output levels, and as a result produce less heat and hence, can be made a lot smaller in physical size than a conventional amp that needs a comparatively larger heatsink. This review will take a closer look at Pioneer's latest model of efficiency, the full range Class-D GM-D9500F.
The GM-D9500F is a four channel full range amplifier, rated at 75 watts per channel into 4 ohms, or 100 watts per channel into 2 ohms. It can also be bridged to create a pair of 200 watt channels, in either mono or stereo bridged configurations. Measuring only 10.7" x 7.9" x 2.2", the amp looks way too tiny to be capable of producing 400 watts of power. And if not for its highly efficient Class-D topology, it probably would be. But with average operating efficiencies of better than 60%, not much of your power is wasted as heat with this one. The heatsink is smooth cast aluminum, and is finished in a semi-gloss black powder coat with a silver, brushed aluminum top plate. The result is a small, but classy looking piece of gear.
The GM-D9500F uses barrier-strip type terminals for all wire connections, and while pretty basic, the terminals are plenty beefy, enough to handle the required wire gauges. These terminals are found all along one end of the amp, and all the signal input and controls are located on the opposite end. Here you'll find the front and rear RCA inputs, and a set of pass through RCA outputs. Controls are quite basic with a single gain pot for each pair of channels, and high pass, low pass and full range crossover switches. Crossover frequencies are variable from 40-500Hz, and use -12dB per octave slopes. A handy 2-Ch/4-Ch input signal switch allows you to drive all four channels with only a single pair of inputs if you prefer, and a pair of pigtail RCA's are provided for high level input connections. Inside the amplifier a nicely manufactured PCB contains a mixture of through-hole and surface mount parts, and each one of the amplifier's MOSFETs is secured to the heatsink with its own screw. No big multiple device clamps secured with only two or three screws found here! One 40A chassis mounted fuse provides over current protection.

Mortal Kombat dev wants to make non-fighting game
Series co-creator Ed Boon says if Injustice: Gods Among Us performs well, NetherRealm's "next step" could be making a game in a different genre.
GameSpot may get a commission from retail offers.
Mortal Kombat studio NetherRealm Studios has made a name for itself by creating fighting games, but the company wants to branch out. In an interview with the PlayStation Blog, Mortal Kombat co-creator and NetherRealm creative director Ed Boon said if upcoming brawler Injustice: Gods Among Us performs well, the studio could work on a non-fighting game next.
"We feel like [Injustice: Gods Among Us] is kind of our first step towards that," he said. "If it does well, we would like to see our next step be a non-fighting game, maybe something unique in its own right. This is our first step in that direction."
Boon said in January that 2012 would be a year of diversification for NetherRealm, explaining that with future games, he wants to work on new intellectual properties in different genres, and for different formats. Additionally, the studio is currently hiring for next-generation technology.
Boon has made non-fighting games before, including 2005's action adventure Xbox and PlayStation 2 game Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks, as well as 2001's third-person arcade shooter The Grid.
For more on NetherRealm's latest work, check out GameSpot's previous coverage of Injustice: Gods Among Us.

ROCOR Metropolitan, bishops, and clergy visit St. Tikhon's Monastery
History was made on Tuesday, March 2, 2010, as His Eminence, Metropolitan Hilarion, First Hierarch of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia, visited Saint Tikhon's Monastery here.
Accompanying Metropolitan Hilarion were His Grace, Bishop Jerome of Manhattan; His Grace, Bishop George of Mayfield; and a delegation of over seventy clergy from ROCOR's Eastern American and New York Diocese.
Metropolitan Hilarion was welcomed to the monastery by the recently elected Abbot, Igumen Sergius, after which they toured the monastery grounds, church and chapels, icon repository, and museum.
His Grace, Bishop Tikhon of Philadelphia and Eastern Pennsylvania; His Grace, Bishop Melchisedek of Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania; Father Michael Dahulich, Bishop-Elect of New York and New Jersey; and 35 clergy from the OCA's Diocese of Eastern Pennsylvania joined Metropolitan Hilarion, Bishops Jerome and George, and the ROCOR clergy for lunch, served by the faithful of Saint John the Baptist Church [ROCOR], Mayfield, PA.
"This event had tremendous significance in so many ways, and hence was a joy for the Brotherhood and community which can only be epitomized by the Palm Sunday Hymn, 'Today, the Holy Spirit has gathered us together, and taking up Thy Cross we sing: Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He that comes in the Name of the Lord!'" said a monastery spokesman. "It was truly a a joyful and historic day in the life of the monastery and the Church in America."

My period is more regular since I met my guy. Is there a link?
Research suggests there is a connection, says Winnifred Cutler, Ph.D., a reproductive biologist and president of the Athena Institute for Women's Wellness in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania. Cutler and her colleagues conducted studies that revealed that women who kissed, had sex with, and slept next to a man at least once a week were more likely to have on-track periods than women whose sex lives were more sporadic. "We found that women who are exposed regularly to male pheromones via intimate contact have higher estrogen levels and shift to more predictable cycles," she explains.

Di Canio: I offered to quit
Paolo Di Canio has revealed he offered to quit at the height of the fascism row which followed his arrival at Sunderland.
The Italian was last month forced to release a statement a few days into his tenure at the Stadium of Light saying he does "not support the ideology of fascism" because of intense focus on past statements he had made. Di Canio met with club owner Ellis Short to discuss the matter.
"I told him, 'Tell me what I have to do. Bye bye. No problem, because I do not want to be a problem for the club'," Di Canio told the Independent on Sunday.
"'If I don't represent a problem for you I am okay, I am ready to handle the pressure. It is no pressure for me. All day rubbish me, I don't care. It is my life, but if you think 'mmm, probably yeah, I let you be free', I don't want nothing and I go'.
"He said, 'Absolutely, you have to stay. You are our man.'
"That for me was enough. Refocus. I will never forget what he did. He gave me a big chance of my dream to become manager at the top level. Next year I hope I can be here. You never know what is going on in life.
"In this moment, he did not give up, he gave me 100 per cent, 200 per cent support. He convinced me to stay because he said you are our man. He is the owner, he picked me. I can't forget for the rest of my life, no matter what happens in the future."
Sunderland sit three points clear of the relegation zone with two games remaining.

'Drunken' groom forces flight to divert
A Louisiana newlywed was escorted off of a plane headed to his honeymoon after having a 'drunken argument' with his bride.
A groom flying from Atlanta to Costa Rica forced his Delta Air Lines flight to divert to the Cayman Islands after he got into a "drunken argument" with his new wife en route to their honeymoon, Reuters reports.
The incident was bad enough that the flight's crew opted to divert and make an emergency landing on Grand Cayman Island on Sunday.
The man was escorted from the flight and taken into custody by Cayman Islands police, but the bride remained on the aircraft and ultimately continued on with her trip to the Costa Rican capital of San Jose.
Royal Cayman Islands Chief Inspector Raymond Christian would not identify the couple's identity to Reuters, but did acknowledge that the man who was taken into custody is a U.S. citizen.
Reuters says the man was being held Monday in the Cayman Islands on a charge of drunk and disorderly conduct. Christian indicated he could face additional charges.
Delta spokeswoman Lindsay McDuff confirmed the incident to Reuters, saying the crew operating Delta Flight 901 decided to divert to Grand Cayman because of a "disruptive customer."
"The flight landed without incident and the customer was met by local authorities," McDuff adds to Reuters.

i might be the only one in the neighborhood that is sad about this
you can cheer if you want. i hope though that the energy that was put into this building and scene stays on the direction of being a creative and respectful positive force. instead of.. well... you know.
and yeah, one more empty building for north capitol! we all love empty buildings.
maybe it'll become a gun store.

I'm sad as well - these kids did more than anyone else on N. Cap to increase nighttime foot traffic. They made it a safer, more interesting place to be.ReplyDelete

I, for one, am NOT sad - but happy happy happy to see it go! As a new resident to the 'hood, the noise and late, loud muzak is enough to drive a person crazy AS-IS, let alone adding the addition of a cheeky "night club" atmosphere to the mix!ReplyDelete
And perhaps you would feel/think differently if YOUR cozy little rowhome was located just behind the club, or anywhere down those two blocks... it isn't quiet, it isn't cool, and it isn't fun to live behind a club.
I say, R.I.P. BORF!

i'm sorry for the hardship that is has caused you.
i hope that the proposed rooftop deck bar, and live music venue of martini 2020 won't impact you negatively.
The thought of a gun store on North Cap makes me sick... maybe because I could actually envison that happening.ReplyDelete
It sounds like the landlord is expecting some rent-paying tenants now that the martini, etc. restaurant is going into the fire house. We'll see. If this place is empty a year or two from now it'll be tough to think there was at least SOMETHING in that building that contributed to the neighborhood - as opposed to just another abandoned building. I live around the corner and am with la chingona on this one.

hey guys!ReplyDelete
I'm figuring you've all seen the DCist article, which I'm really disappointed in (there's tons of mis-quotes and misinformation). I'd like to just say that we're not leaving because of the rent, we really have no problem with that, it's just that it became obvious that the landlord didn't want to compromise with us in any way, including allowing the lease to get drawn up by a lawyer (the DCist says something about him having his own lawyer draw it up, which is just NOT the case). We have some serious concerns about his health possibly impeding his discretion... We're not disappearing, though, just in limbo. I hope to see a bunch of neighborhood faces at the art show on saturday! (Feminist Art show, parental discretion advised, 7 pm, free! and with free freeze pops!) thanks for all your great support!

Perhaps they should see about the building at 207 Florida, NW? that would be a great spot.

According to taxpayerservicecenter the property is listed as vacant w/ no exemption. I'm not sure how long the owner has been paying the vacant rate, but as assessments go up the 5% bill can't be helping the situation.ReplyDelete
seems like a bunch of us in the neighborhood want you guys to continue and prosper. let us know about your developments
Good. This should free up some parking and reduce the numbers of mopey hipster doofuses milling about the area..ReplyDelete
Now maybe if we would restrict the use of glass bottles outside since some people clearly can't handle the responsibility, and maybe stop throwing f*ing chicken bones and littering all over that would be good.
I'm really not that grumpy I just really don't like litter and garbage and chicken bones.

USTFCCCA News & Notes
Texas A&M Triangular Lives Up to 'Meet of the Week' Status
COLLEGE STATION – A feisty battle for points among three tradition-rich track and field schools entertained a crowd of 1,487 at the Texas A&M Triangular on Saturday afternoon inside Gilliam Indoor Stadium.
After winning four dual meets over the past four seasons, the Texas A&M men remained undefeated in adding a triangular title to that collection. The Aggies, No. 2 in Track & Field News dual meet rankings, reached a total of 128.5 points and were safely ahead of No. 1 Arkansas (99) and No. 8 LSU (82.5).
Texas A&M women, also No. 2 in dual meet rankings, nearly tied for the team win, but came up short by four points as No. 1 LSU claimed the victory with 107.5 points. The Aggies were second with 103.5 points and Arkansas finished third with 103.
In total, five 2013 collegiate-leading performances and 16 top-five showings were recorded.
Meet of the Week Results: Texas A&M Triangular (DI) | Cherry and Silver Invitational (DII) |
NCC Cardinal Opener (Men's) (DIII) (Women's)
"From the first event of the day our team has to understand those two or three points that are scored early in the meet all add up," said Texas A&M coach Pat Henry. "Everybody has to have a great day on the same day to win a track meet like this.
"Our guys really lined up and got after it and our girls got after it as well. The women got beat by a really good team today by just a few points. At the SEC conference meet we'll get to see these two teams again. This gives our team a taste of what is in front of them, who they need to beat and how to prepare for us to be successful at the SEC Championship."
In addition to claiming maximum points in the 400 and 4 x 400 relay for the Aggies, sophomore Deon Lendore sped to a world-leading 45.91, the third fastest time ever indoors at A&M, to capture the 400 meter victory over a 46.98 from LSU's Caleb Williams.
"In my mind I really wanted to go 45 in my first meet," stated Lendore, who split 45.4 running second leg of the 4 x 400 last weekend. "Even before the race I told myself I needed to try my best to run 45 today. Before I walked out to the track coach told me to do what I said I was going to do. After I finished the race and saw it was 45 I was pretty happy.
"My fastest split last year was 46.0 at the NCAA. So, after I split 45 low last weekend I started thinking I could do the same in the open 400 if I try my best. I at least wanted to get the meet record, which I did."
Lendore broke the meet record of 46.03 set by A&M's Demetrius Pinder in 2010 and only trails Pinder (45.33) and Tabarie Henry (45.81) on the Aggie all-time list. Behind Lendore were teammates Aldrich Bailey, Jr. (47.28) and Carlyle Roudette (47.38) in third and fourth place.
To cap the A&M team victory, Lendore anchored the 4 x 400 relay to a 3:07.21 victory with a 45.9 split, to edge LSU's 3:07.74.
Henry Lelei also enjoyed a double win as he clocked 4:10.95 in the mile and then anchored the Aggie distance medley relay to a narrow victory over Arkansas, 10:00.21 to 10:00.75. Teammate C.J. Brown placed second in the mile with a 4:12.27 and ran the opening 1200m leg in the distance medley relay.
"Lelei is a great competitor and a team guy," said Henry. "He's an SEC champion already in cross country and knows what it takes to be really good. When Lelei lines up we know we're going to have a fine effort out of him."
For the third consecutive meet Casey Strong improved his school record in winning the weight throw. This time he bettered his previous best in five of the six rounds. His final toss of 65-0.75 (19.83) set the current school record, at least for this week, over his previous best of 63-10.5 (19.47). Strong also added a third place effort in the shot put.
"I feel really blessed and happy with the performances I've had this indoor season," said Strong. "I'm staying healthy and keep improving. I'm really blessed to be on the Texas A&M track team. We have some of the best people in the nation and they push me to excel."
Strong topped his school record of 63-10.5 (19.47) in the weight with improvements of 64-3 (19.58), twice in rounds two and three, had a 63-11 (19.48) in the fourth stanza and hit 64-4 (19.61) in round five. Teammate Ben Skrla also improved his career best to 56-3 (17.14) in placing fourth and moves to No. 7 on the A&M all-time list.
"I'm really perfecting my technique and getting it down the best I can," noted Strong. "I'm not there yet, and I know I have more in me. To keep improving every weekend is a good sign. My goal coming into this season was 65 feet, so I'm really proud of myself to reach that goal. I take pride in the fact that I can set a school record each time I compete."
The women's competition was decided in the final pair of events, the triple jump and 4 x 400. Following the distance medley relay, which was won by the Razorbacks, Arkansas held a half point lead over A&M, 93 to 92.5, with LSU third at 91.5 points.
Arkansas claimed the women's 4 x 400 in 3:36.03 with LSU second in 3:37.15 while the Aggies finished third in 3:38.26. That gave the Razorbacks a score of 100 with Texas A&M and LSU tied at 96.5.
The final round of the triple jump changed the fortunes of the Aggies. Jennifer Madu was leading the competition with a mark of 40-9.5 from the first round while LSU occupied second and third place with marks of 40-6 for both Keri Emanuel and Lynnika Pitts.
In the sixth round Emanuel matched the mark for Madu to tie for first place. Emanual had a better second mark, her 40-6, than Madu's 39-11.25. LSU claimed 11 points for a first and third place finish while A&M scored seven points with a second and fifth place. With only one jumper in the event Arkansas took three points with a fourth place effort.
If Madu had claimed the win then the Aggies and Tigers would have each scored nine points in the triple jump and the Triangular would have finished in a tie at 105.5 points each.
Texas A&M totaled 11 victories in the meet, eight for the men and three for the women.
Ashley Collier sped to a 7.38 victory in the women's 60 to lead a 1-2-3-4 finish by the Aggies. Ashton Purvis followed in second place at 7.44 with Madu third in 7.45 and Olivia Ekpone fourth at 7.52. LSU's Kimberlyn Duncan won the 200 in 23.15 with Kamaria Brown second in 23.21 and Purvis third at 23.34.
LaQue Moen-Davis won the long jump (19-7.5) and Chelsea Utley claimed the high jump with a career best equaling height of 5-9.25.
Other victories for the Aggie men included Prezel Hardy, Jr. (60), Devion Harris (high jump), and Jonathan Turner (long jump).
Hardy, Jr. won the men's 60 in 6.73 over LSU's Rynell Parson (6.76) with A&M teammate Michael Bryan in third at 6.77 as Tiger Aaron Ernest finished fourth in 6.82. In the 200, though, it was Ernest improving his PR to 20.79, breaking the meet record of 20.80, and defeating Hardy's 21.05. Bryan finished third again with a 21.18.
Harris cleared 6-10.25 (2.09) to win the high jump and is now equal No. 8 on the Aggie all-time list. Turner had a mark of 23-7.5 (7.19) in winning the long jump.

* High-Definition AG-HPX500 Ships with High End Features Never Before Offered In This Price Range
Equipped with many of the popular features of the highly-successful AG-HVX200 handheld P2 HD camcorder, the HPX500 delivers full, production-quality recording, with three 2/3″CCDs, DVCPRO HD 4:2:2 image quality, independent frame encoding, interchangeable lenses, variable frame rates, four independent audio channels and the ultra-reliability of solid-state recording.
The HPX500's full, progressive 2/3″ 3-CCDs deliver exceptional resolution and sensitivity, excellent low-light performance and a wide dynamic range. The multi-format camera can record in 32 high-definition and standard definition formats*, including 1080i and 720p in full bandwidth DVCPRO HD. The HPX500 employs 14-bit A/D conversion, and its digital signal processor (DSP) employs 19-bit internal processing to deliver spectacular HD and SD images. It also offers 50/60Hz selectability for international use and a power consumption of only 22 watts.
"The full-size AG-HPX500 is a highly-affordable, full production-quality HD camcorder that includes high-end features that video professionals could only find previously in more expensive cameras," said Robert Harris, Vice President of Marketing, Panasonic Broadcast. "The HPX500 offers fast and incredibly flexible file-based, IT workflow with the ultra-reliable performance of solid-state recording. We're so confident in the camera's performance that we're offering it with a free 5-year extended warranty program."
The HPX500 has a variable frame rate function that allows professionals to undercrank and overcrank the camera to create fast- or slow-motion effects. For 720p recordings, users can set frame rates at 24p, 30p or 25p in any of 11 steps between 12fps and 60fps (or 50fps). And with the camera's advanced 1080/480 24pA mode, users have the option of using 2:3:3:2 pull down, which allows most nonlinear editing systems to extract 24 frames on ingest.
With Panasonic's current delivery of its 16GB P2 card, the HPX500 delivers extended recording time without "hot-swapping" cards. With four of these P2 cards installed, the camcorder can record up to 160 minutes at native 720/24pN in DVCPRO HD, 128 minutes at 720P/30pN in DVCPRO HD, 64 minutes in DVCPRO HD, 128 minutes in DVCPRO 50 and 256 minutes in DVCPRO, so recording capacity is now equal to and often longer than tape-based and disc-based media. The HPX500 provides users with the advantages of P2 HD's IT workflow, including instant recording, thumbnail clip views, and a host of recording modes, without the need for ingest.
The 8.2-pound camcorder is equipped with eight gamma modes to address a wide range of shooting situations, including Cine-like Gamma to create film-like recordings. Key interfaces include IEEE 1394, USB 2.0, HD-SDI, analog component and four audio XLR inputs. Its four 48-kHz/16-bit digital audio channels are independently controllable. The camera also features an SD memory card slot for saving or loading scene files and user settings and a variety of shooting assist functions and presets. The HPX500 features an automatic Chromatic Aberration Compensation (CAC) function that allows the camera to automatically optimize its performance with new CAC lenses.
The AG-HPX500 is currently available at a suggested list price of $14,000 including a 5-year extended warranty program. A variety of camera packages is available.

Interior Designers need to understand their whole marketing strategy and how each of its 7 constituent tactics work together to grow the business.
This article is a checklist. Go through each of the points I've listed and apply it to your sales and marketing in your business. My opinion on what are particularly important marketing communications for interior designers are highlighted in bold and might differ if you target business rather than the public. Let me know your thoughts:
1. Search Marketing – Get your prospect at the time of their decision-making.
* Search engine optimisation (Higher rankings)
* Paid Search / Pay-per-click (Google AdWords)
* Paid for inclusion / feeds
2. Online PR – Create Awareness of your brand by getting it mentioned.
* Industry Portal Representation (eg Thehousedirectory.com)
* Social Media (blogs, feeds, communities)
* Media Alerting Services
* Brand Protection
3. Online Partnerships – Link your brand WITH OTHERS IN YOUR INDUSTRY
* Affiliate Marketing
* Sponsorship
* Co-branding
* Link building
* Widget marketing
4. Offline Communications – You should know these.
* Advertising
* Personal selling [out]
* Sales promotion
* Sponsorship
* Direct Mail
* Exhibitions
* Merchandising
* Packaging
* Word-of-mouth (your old clients are your best and cheapest salespeople)
5. Interactive Ads
* Site-specific Media Buys (only if you target businesses)
* Ad networks
* Sponsorship
* Behavioural targeting
6. Opt-in Email
* House list emails (your clients and prospects)
* Cold (rented lists)
* Co-branded (share the marketing load wisely and boost your brand image)
* Ads in 3rd party newsletters
7. Viral Marketing – Electronic variants of traditional 'word of mouth'
* Pass along emails
* Word-of-mouth (eg using the share & enjoy functionality below)
* Buzz marketing [out]
* Generating media mentions
What do you think?
And as a PS I will follow this up with 2 more articles; one about different ways of engaging (financially) with clients; and a second about using Facebook for an interior design business. The first comment, below, reflects a theme running through many questions posed to me: website designers (techies) and ad agencies (space sellers) are trying to get you to part with your hard earned design fees; I would read a book on digital marketing that comes more from the marketing end rather than the technology end eg. "Mastering Web 2.0 bu Susan Rice Lincoln", that's a good way to start. DON'T SPEND £10k/$15k on a new web site think about your customers and how they behave, your marketing communications need to latch into their behaviors.

KABUL, Afghanistan -- The body of a Georgian soldier who is believed to be the first member of the international coalition in Afghanistan to have gone missing in more than three years was found in the country's south, NATO said Sunday. The coalition said he had been captured, without providing further details.
A statement said Afghan police found the body and turned it over to NATO forces Saturday. He went missing Dec. 18 in the restive province of Helmand.
The soldier from the NATO-led coalition is believed to be the first to have gone missing since a U.S. Army sergeant was captured by the Taliban in June 2009. The dead soldier was among the 1,500 troops from the former Soviet republic of Georgia serving in Afghanistan. NATO says an investigation is under way into his capture and death.
An Afghan district official said a villager found the body about 15 kilometers (9 miles) from the soldier's base in Helmand's Musaqala district and informed local police. The official requested anonymity since he was not authorized to talk with the press.
Georgia's Defense Ministry earlier described the missing man as an officer and said an intense search and rescue operation had been mounted in Helmand and Nimroz provinces.
The last known coalition soldier to go missing was U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, 26, who was taken prisoner by militants in Paktika province in southeastern Afghanistan. Attempts have been made by the U.S. to secure his release but have so far failed.
Nineteen Georgian soldiers have been killed since the country joined international military operations in Afghanistan in August 2009. Georgia is not a member of NATO but has significant presence in the country relative to its population of 4.5 million.
There are currently more than 100,000 coalition troops in the country, including some 66,000 from the United States. Only a residual force is slated to remain past 2014.

Mumia's Battle Far From Over
Mumia Abu Jamal's case has garnered international support and exposes the persistent racism in the U.S. criminal justice system.
After almost 30 years of fighting, U.S. political prisoner, Mumia Abu Jamal's death sentence was overturned.
While some people have been celebrating, Ramona Africa issued a warning to supporters at a recent gathering. "First of all Mumia is an innocent man and should be released. His being taken off death row and given life in prison is not a victory. Mumia remains in prison because of who he is and what he does for our people. I see Mumia's move to the general population as being very dangerous."
Abu-Jamal, a renowned journalist, political activist and former Black Panther, was convicted in the shooting death of police officer Daniel Falkner on December 9, 1981, even though he was critically wounded by Falkner's service weapon.
"Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams and Maureen Falkner portray this as Mumia being cut a break with a life sentence. Being in prison when you know you are innocent, and being messed with so much, no physical contact – can't touch anybody, is a living hell," Ramona Africa continued. "We cannot afford to sit back. The Fraternal Order of Police control the prisons. These are the same people who dropped a bomb on me and my family, killing 11 people including our children, and put me in prison. Maureen Falkner has no interest in who really killed her husband, she is a puppet for the FOP and the government who are her ventriloquists. We must demand the release of Mumia," she concluded.
Maureen is the widow of Officer Falkner. The bombing reference was to the attack on the members of MOVE, a self-help African nationalism organization of which Ramona Africa was a member, by aerial bombardment by the Philadelphia Police in 1985 on the orders of then Mayor Wilson Goode. Eleven people were killed when police dropped a bomb from a helicopter on the home of MOVE members; Ramona and a young child were the only survivors. Abu-Jamal as a journalist was a champion of MOVE and its rights.
Mumia Abu Jamal's case has garnered international support and exposes the persistent racism in the U.S. criminal justice system. Human rights activist Lateefah Carter said, "The decades of work people have done made this important step possible. Through the years we gone through
fierce battles in the courts and in the streets and we will never give up. We will keep on fighting until Mumia is free."
Keedra Gibba, an educator and activist, echoed Carter's position. "I'm not ready for cheers. I don't see how life in prison is acceptable. There was no physical evidence of Mumia involvement in the shooting of the officer. The prosecutors know a new trial would be risky for them."
New York City Councilman Charles Barron declared: "There will be no dancing in the street until Mumia is in the street!"

What's new - Jan 2009
|Well in a hard fought battle, First Contact won the best opening to a Trek movie, narrowly beating out The Undiscovered Country and The Wrath of Khan. This week we turn it around and ask about the worst movie opening.
|Caption Competition
|Congratulations to Sulu, winner of last week's competition. This week, a pic from Enterprises "Rogue Planet".
|We've fixed an issue with the look of the shops that was stopping you reading the text on the purchase screens. Thanks to 'shran' for pointing this out on the forum.
|So Enterprise won the worst trek opening by a comfy margin. This week we're asking which Trek movie had the best opening sequence.
|Caption Competition
|Congratulations to Bryan Moore, winner of last week's competition. This week, a shot from Voyager's "Latent Image".
|Caption Comp
|Fixed an issue with the caption comp previous pages, were anything other than page 1 would not work. Thanks to 'USS Aeon' on the forum for pointing this out.
|DITL Shops
|A new design is now available in the DITL shops. This is a black t-shirt with a simple DITL logo on the breast.
|A Sad Passing
|Way back in 2004, we ran one of our weekly polls with the question "Who is the best individual bad guy (or girl) to have appeared in Trek?" By a narrow majority, the winner was Khan Noonien Singh - a bad guy who last appeared some twenty years earlier than the second place entry, and had a fraction of the screentime to boot.
Such was the power of Ricardo Montalbán's performance in the role. He played Khan as no shallow villain of the week, no mindless evil bent on destruction for its own sake. In Montalbán's hands, Khan was a powerful, intelligent, intense, charismatic figure. You could really believe that this was a guy that just might beat Captain Kirk.
And so it is with sadness that we note the passing of this great figure today, at the ripe old age of 88.
I saw an interview once where Ricardo stated that there were five phases to any actor's career. As he put it stage one was "Who is Ricardo Montalbán?" Stage two was "Get me Ricardo Montalbán!" For stage three it became "Get me somebody like Ricardo Montalbán!" At stage four it turned into "Get me a young Ricardo Montalbán." And finally, it became "Who is Ricardo Montalbán?"
Well Ricardo, you were wrong. You made it to stage four, at most, but nobody ever forgot you. You were just too damn good for that.
|The Next Generation won the best Trek series title sequence. This week we're going for the converse - the worse title sequence.
|Caption Competition
|Congratulations to Bodhi, winner of last week's competition. This week, a pic from DS9's "Past Prologue".
|Caption Comp
|Altered the 'Last week' and 'Previous' caption comp pages so you can get to peoples 'Honour Role' pages by clicking on their names.
|Well the movie refit of the Enterprise was your favourite, but in a shock upset the Star Trek XI version beat out the original series design! Shocked and amazed, I am. This week we're looking at which title sequence you like best.
|Caption Competition
|Congratulations to Mikey, winner of last week's competition. This week, a shot from TNG "Lessons".
|Fixed a bunch of ship nits. Thanks go to stitch626, Mark, Reliant121, and me,myself and I. (Not literally me... that's the guy's name.)

13.21 ▶ Questioner: Then how does the second density progress to the third?
Ra: I am Ra. The second density strives towards the third density which is the density of self-consciousness or self-awareness. The striving takes place through the higher second-density forms who are invested by third-density beings with an identity to the extent that they become self-aware mind/body complexes, thus becoming mind/body/spirit complexes and entering third density, the first density of consciousness of spirit.
20.35 ▶ Questioner: What density Orion entity did the creation of these heads?
Ra: I am Ra. The fourth density, the density of love or understanding, was the density of the particular entity which offered this possibility to those of your first major cycle.
90.25 ▶ Questioner: What were these?
Ra: I am Ra. One more; that is, the permeability of the densities so that there may be communication from density to density and from plane to plane or sub-density to sub-density.
14.2 ▶ Questioner: When this Earth was second-density, how did the second-density beings on this Earth become so invested?
Ra: There was not this type of investment as spoken but the simple third-density investment which is the line of spiraling light calling distortion upward from density to density. The process takes longer when there is no investment made by incarnate third-density beings.
25.9 ▶ Questioner: Then I am assuming this is the most effective density for this work. Would this density— an entity of this density— be more effective for this type of work than, say, an entity of density five or six?
Ra: I am Ra. The fourth density is the only density besides your own which, lacking the wisdom to refrain from battle, sees the necessity of the battle. Thus it is necessary that fourth-density social memory complexes be used.
43.26 ▶ Questioner: Then will there be at that time any fifth-density and/or sixth-density beings on the surface of the planet?
Ra: I am Ra. Not for a fairly long measure of your time as fourth-density beings need to spend their learn/teaching space/time with their own density's entities.
90.2 ▶ Questioner: Could you tell me the situation with respect to our fourth- and fifth-density companions at this time?
Ra: I am Ra. The fourth-density league of companions accompanies your group. The fifth-density friend, at this space/time nexus, works within its own density exclusively.
89.11 ▶ Questioner: Did it later, then, become a fifth-density planet?
Ra: I am Ra. It later became a fourth/fifth-density planet; then, later a fifth-density planet for a large measure of your time. Both fourth- and fifth-density experiences were possible upon the planetary influence of what you call Venus.
89.12 ▶ Questioner: What is its density at present?
Ra: I am Ra. Its core vibrational frequency is sixth density. However we, as a social memory complex, had elected to leave that influence. Therefore, the beings inhabiting this planetary influence at this space/time are fifth-density entities. The planet may be considered a fifth/sixth-density planet.
20.3 ▶ Questioner: So more and more second-density entities are making it into third density. Can you give me an example of a second-density entity coming into third density, say, in the recent past?
Ra: I am Ra. Perhaps the most common occurrence of second-density graduation during third-density cycle is the so-called pet.
The animal which is exposed to the individualizing influences of the bond between animal and third-density entity, this individuation causes a sharp rise in the potential of the second-density entity so that upon the cessation of physical complex the mind/body complex does not return unto the undifferentiated consciousness of that species, if you will.
43.9 ▶ Questioner: In the next density, or the… in the fourth density, is the catalyst of physical pain used as a mechanism for experiential balancing?
Ra: I am Ra. The use of physical pain is minimal, having only to do with the end of the fourth-density incarnation. This physical pain would not be considered severe enough to treat, shall we say, in third density. The catalysts of mental and spiritual pain are used in fourth density.
20.2 ▶ Questioner: Then the second-density entities that did not get harvested at the beginning of this 75,000-year period, some are still in second density on this planet. Were any of these who remained in second density harvested into third density in the past 75,000 years?
Ra: I am Ra. This has been increasingly true.
16.27 ▶ Questioner: Can you tell me what percentage of those are third, fourth, fifth, sixth density, etc.? Roughly, very roughly.
Ra: I am Ra. A percentage seventeen for first density, a percentage twenty for second density, a percentage twenty-seven for third density, a percentage sixteen for fourth density, a percentage six for fifth density. The other information must be withheld. The free will of your future is not making this available. We shall speak on one item. There is a fairly large percentage, approximately thirty-five percent of the intelligent planets, which do not fit in the percentiles. These mysteries are of sixth and seventh density and are not available for our speaking.
7.16 ▶ Questioner: Using as an example a fifth-density group or social memory complex of the Orion group, what was their previous density before they became fifth density?
Ra: I am Ra. The progress through densities is sequential. A fifth-density social memory complex would be comprised of mind/body/spirit complexes harvested from fourth density. Then the conglomerate or mass mind/body/spirit complex does its melding and the results are due to the infinitely various possibilities of combination of distortions.
38.6 ▶ Questioner: Is it possible for a third-density planet to form a social memory complex which operates in third density?
Ra: I am Ra. It is possible only in the latter or seventh portion of such a density when entities are harmoniously readying for graduation.
20.4 ▶ Questioner: Then can you give me an example of an entity in third density that was just previously a second-density entity? What type of entity do they become here?
Ra: I am Ra. As a second-density entity returns as third-density for the beginning of this process of learning, the entity is equipped with the lowest, if you will so call these vibrational distortions, forms of third-density consciousness; that is, equipped with self-consciousness.
41.6 ▶ Questioner: Then could you say that sixth-density entities are using that mechanism to be more closely co-Creators with the Infinite Creator?
Ra: I am Ra. This is precisely correct as seen in the latter portions of sixth density seeking the experiences of the gateway density.
43.27 ▶ Questioner: Then basically what you are saying is that at that point the teachings of fifth- or sixth-density beings would not be too well understood by the fourth density, new fourth density.
Ra: I am Ra. Do you wish to query us upon this point?
62.28 ▶ Questioner: Then as the fourth-density vibrations come in this means that the planet can support entities of fourth-density core vibration. Will the planet then still be first-density core vibration and will there be second-density entities on it with second-density vibrations, and will there be third-density entities with third-density vibrations?
Ra: I am Ra. This will be the last full query of this working. There is energy but the distortions of the instrument suggest to us it would be well to shorten this working with your permission.
12.17 ▶ Questioner: Does an individual in the fourth density normally appear— or are they normally invisible to us?
Ra: I am Ra. The use of the word "normal" is one which befuddles the meaning of the question. Let us rephrase for clarity. The fourth density is, by choice, not visible to third density. It is possible for fourth density to be visible. However, it is not the choice of the fourth-density entity to be visible due to the necessity for concentration upon a rather difficult vibrational complex which is the third density you experience.
19.5 ▶ Questioner: When the first second-density entities became third on this planet, was this with the help of the transfer of beings from Mars, or were there second-density entities that evolved into third density with no outside influence?
Ra: I am Ra. There were some second-density entities which made the graduation into third density with no outside stimulus but only the efficient use of experience.
Others of your planetary second density joined the third-density cycle due to harvesting efforts by the same sort of sending of vibratory aid as those of the Confederation send you now. This communication was, however, telepathic rather than telepathic/vocal or telepathic/written due to the nature of second-density beings.
17.34 ▶ Questioner: Well, then if an entity is harvested into fourth density with a grade, let's say, of fifty-one percent for others, forty-nine percent for self, what level of the fourth density would he go into? I'm assuming there are different levels of the fourth density.
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct. Each enters the sub-density which vibrates in accordance with the entity's understanding.
43.14 ▶ Questioner: Then the big difference in harvestability between third and fourth density is that at the end of the third density the individual is harvested as a function of individual violet ray, but in fourth density, is it the equivalent of violet-ray then for the entire social memory complex that must be of a harvestable nature to go to fifth density?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct although in fifth density entities may choose to learn as a social memory complex or as mind/body/spirit complexes and may graduate to sixth density under these conditions, for the wisdom density is an extremely free density whereas the lessons of compassion leading to wisdom necessarily have to do with other-selves.
43.28 ▶ Questioner: I guess I didn't state that correctly. Is it true that the fourth-density, new fourth-density beings then need to evolve in their thinking to reach a point where fifth-density lessons would be of value?
Ra: I am Ra. We grasp the thrust of your query. Although it is true that as fourth-density beings progress they have more and more need for other density teachings, it is also true that just as we speak to you due to the calling, so the information called is always available. It is simply that fifth-density beings will not live upon the surface of the planetary sphere until the planet reaches fifth-density vibratory level.
63.11 ▶ Questioner: Does that number include the harvestable third density who are coming to this planet for the fourth-density experience?
Ra: I am Ra. No.
19.8 ▶ Questioner: Well, did this second density to third density transition take place then 75,000 years ago? Approximate?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct.
14.1 ▶ Questioner: Going back over this morning's work, [inaudible]. You said the second density strives towards the third density which is the density of self-consciousness or self-awareness. The striving takes place through higher second-density forms invested by third-density beings. Could you explain what you mean by this?
Ra: I am Ra. Much as you would put on a vestment, so do your third-density beings invest or clothe some second-density beings with self-awareness. This is often done through the opportunity of what you call pets. It has also been done by various other means of investiture. These include many so-called religious practice complexes which personify and send love to various natural second-density beings in their group form.
9.14 ▶ Questioner: Then there were second-density entities here prior to approximately 75,000 years ago. What type of entities were these?
Ra: The second density is the density of the higher plant life and animal life which exists without the upward drive towards the infinite. These second-density beings are of an octave of consciousness just as you find various orientations of consciousness among the conscious entities of your vibration.
13.22 ▶ Questioner: What is the density level of our planet Earth at this time?
Ra: I am Ra. The sphere upon which you dwell is third density in its beingness of mind/body/spirit complexes. It is now in a space/time continuum, fourth density. This is causing a somewhat difficult harvest.
9.17 ▶ Questioner: Do these beings then evolve from second density to third density?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct, although no guarantee can be made of the number of cycles it will take an entity to learn the lessons of consciousness of self which are the prerequisite for transition to third density.

1 piece, 3 ways by Pamela Allier

One weekend of Coachella down, one to go. We teamed up with Mexico City-based blogger and street style star Pamela Allier on the first day of the first weekend to learn how to wear the same item three days in row, without appearing like you were just too lazy to get changed.
"I love an extra layer! The dress-over-T-shirt combo is always casual, and the embroidered and patched-up denim jacket highlights the waist – and gives this look a '90s vibe."
"It can be difficult to find enough occasions to wear a dress that's as unique as this one, so you need to play around and find ways to make it clear that you did actually shower and change before returning for day two. By folding the top and turning it into a skirt, I've made the tie-up blouse the centrepiece."
"At a party or night out, I would wear this dress with heels and more accessories, but to make it work for a crazy day in the desert heat I paired it with combat boots and a choker. This is actually my favourite way to wear it, because for me there's no such thing as being over-dressed."

9. New editor's contract has a strict no top ten list clause.
8. Our new faculty member, Brett Favre, was going to write it… but then he changed his mind and retired again.
