Piper-Heidsieck Roseé Sauvage Champagne
Description: Founded in 1785, Champagne Piper-Heidsieck is one of the oldest Champagne Houses created by Florens-Louis Heidsieck in Reims, France. A cloth merchant by trade, Heidsieck became involved in winemaking at an early age and showed a unique talent. He developed rigorous quality standards and insisted only the best grapes be used in his Champagnes. His attention to detail enabled him to create an outstanding champagne that was highly recognized, dedicating one of his champagnes to Queen Marie-Antoinette, he was granted the honor of personally presenting her with a bottle. The wines of Champagne Piper-Heidsieck are still highly recognized today. Piper-Heidsieck Rosé Sauvage – French for "wild rose" – is the Audrey Hepburn of ultra high-end champagnes. Specially packaged for Valentine's day in a lenticular-printed box featuring cascading rose petals, the Champagne's notes of black cherry, black currant, pink grapefruit and blood orange are offset by a lingering, spice-tinged finish. It provides the perfect compliment to holiday-appropriate aphrodisiac offerings including sushi, oysters and red fruit desserts.
Price: $55.00 to $60.00

More Americans filed first-time claims for unemployment insurance last week than at any time since mid-May.
From a low of 605,000 at the beginning of June, the total jobless claims now stands at 627,000, the US Department of Labor reported Thursday. But the numbers are volatile, which is why economists pay more attention to the four-week moving average, which did tick up, but only very slightly.

Ron Artest was stopped dead in his tracks -- after cops saw the dude rolling around L.A. in an oversized go-cart .... and realized something was wrong.
TMZ obtained this photo of the Los Angeles Lakers playoff hero getting pulled over Monday in something called an Eagle Roadster -- a custom vehicle with a top speed of 152 MPH.
Law enforcement sources tell us Artest was cited because the registration on the car was expired. But get this -- we're told the car isn't even registered to Ron ... but somebody out in Tennessee.
Ron -- who was smiling throughout the entire incident -- was eventually sent on his way ... but sources tell us cops were "very happy" he was wearing a helmet.
The Lakers should be happy too.

For many students, the Monterey Institute's Summer Intensive Language Program (SILP) is a gateway to advancement along their individual path, whether their next destination is a graduate program, further language study, or a return to their professional career. The bottom line is, in addition to opening up new opportunities for intercultural communication, language acquisition is a resume builder.
During a July 17 campus information session, students in the 2013 SILP program received an in-depth briefing on career opportunities in the language field. Staff members from the Center for Advising and Career Services presented a panel addressing language acquisition for career exploration, sharing their experiences working with multi-lingual students as they enter the workforce. A student and alumni panel followed, featuring students who have graduated or are currently attending the Monterey Institute sharing their experiences working in a career utilizing their languages. Participants in the latter panel included Kaydee Dahlin (MBA '09), Timothy Ditter (MAIPS '14), Kaley Grimland (MAIEP '08), Natalia Vasilievna Zoubko (MATLM/MATI '11) and Larisa Makshanova (MATLM '12).

PENN YAN � Abandon Brewing Co. will celebrate its grand opening this weekend with the first release of their new seasonal Smoking Pumpkin Ale in honor of the event.
The dream of a craft brewery on an old farm on Merritt Hill Road just uphill from Route 54A has finally been realized by General Manager Garry Sperrick and Master Brewer Jeff Hillebrandt. The engineer and physicist have partnered to make what was a fulfilling hobby into a profitable enterprise.
Abandon Brewing opened quietly earlier in the fall to get their legs under them, and are already showing they can run at top speed. At last week�s �New York on Tap� beer festival at the New York Wine & Culinary Center in Canandaigua, they won two Tasters Choice Awards with their Smoking Pumpkin Ale and Reckless Abandon Double IPA.
Hillebrandt, formerly of Ommegang Brewery in Cooperstown, also served as an intern at Custom Brew Crafters in Honeoye Falls, and studied at brewers� schools in Chicago and Munich, Germany.
Sperrick is the business force behind and leading Abandon Brewing Co., and is not lacking in his own creativity. Having planted 250 apple trees, he expects to make cider part of Abandon�s market offerings. A vineyard is also being replanted, making wines another possibility. Sperrick describes their philosophy as �living off whatever we can grow here.� That will include a hopyard with six varieties to flavor their beers.

WHEN Open noon to 6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 2, noon to 5 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 3

Nice house, but small and old. Previous owner did own remodeling about 25 years ago without a contractor and wiring is suspect. Low insulation in attic and none in walls. Will need new heat/ac unit and will also need lead and asbestos abatement if heat pipes (forced air) are disturbed. Wood floors need refinishing and repairs. New front door also needed. Garage is block but needs new rollup doors. Roof will need replacement as it is reaching life limit.

Start to finish: 35 minutes
Servings: 4
1 small orange
1 lemon
Four skinless 6-ounce centre cut salmon fillet pieces
1/4 cup chopped fresh rosemary
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup pitted and chopped olives, preferably oil-cured
1/2 serrano chili, thinly sliced crosswise
Heat the oven to 400 F.
Cut the orange and lemon in half crosswise. Thinly slice 1/2 of the orange and 1/2 of the lemon into thin slices. Juice the remaining halves of both fruits.
Set a 24-inch-long sheet of kitchen parchment on a baking sheet. Fold the sheet in half across the short side, then open the folded parchment (like a book), leaving one half of it on the baking sheet. Arrange about half of the orange and lemon slices in a single layer in the centre of the parchment on the baking sheet.
Sprinkle half the rosemary over the citrus slices. Set the salmon over the rosemary, then sprinkle with salt, the citrus juices and oil. Scatter the olives and chili over the salmon pieces. Top each piece of salmon with a quarter of the remaining rosemary and citrus slices.
Fold the second half of the parchment over the fish, then crimp and fold the edges together to create a sealed packet. Bake — on the sheet pan — on the oven's middle shelf for 10 to 12 minutes, or until just cooked through (stick a paring knife through the parchment and salmon; it should move easily through the fish if done).
Cut open the parchment, discard the citrus slices from the top of the salmon, then place each piece on a serving plate. Spoon some of the olives, chilies, rosemary and juices over each piece.

I recently applied to a job and took a programming test. I didn't hear back, so I'm assuming I didn't get the position. I was able to answer all of the questions except one. I'm trying to find out what the answer is because its been bugging me, but I'm not having any luck. The question is a math calculation.
A man is standing in the middle of a long dry riverbed when he sees a wall of water heading towards him. If the water is moving at 8 times the speed at which the man can run, then hell have the best chance of escape by running:
A) Straight toward a river bank
B) Toward a bank, but at a slight angle away from the water
C) Away from the water, but at a slight angle toward the bank
Give a short explanation of your reasoning. Establish your answer mathematically.
Does anybody know what exactly needs to be done to find the optimal path? Is there an exact equation to use?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

General Teaching Projects in Jamaica by Joseph Dominguez
After hearing stories of a friend spending time in South America doing volunteer work, I decided that this was something I wanted to pursue. Having spent a lot of time abroad in numerous countries as a student, it was time to rediscover that wanderlust as a working professional. There was no better way to escape from the daily grind than to pack my bag and head to the sunny shores of the Caribbean!
After attending an online webinar and an information session in person, I knew that Projects Abroad was the right organization to volunteer through. With great support both prior to and during the volunteer experience, it was the right decision. In assessing possible destination options, I chose Jamaica.
I have always been fascinated by the culture and climate of the Caribbean nations. I tossed up between doing a Building or Teaching project, eventually opting for Teaching. Jamaica's official language is English, and I thought being a native English speaker would put me in a good position to assist students struggling with English.
Arriving in Jamaica
On first arriving in Kingston, I was greeted by a friendly member of staff who took me to my host family's house. On my first day I was treated to an introductory tour of the city of Mandeville, only a short cab ride from where I was based. It was there I met other volunteers and was shown where the bank, supermarket and taxi ranks were located.
My Teaching Placement
For the month long duration of my placement, I had the opportunity to teach three different students. I was based at a church (naturally - Jamaica has the greatest number of churches per square mile than any other country!) for my teaching placement. Being school holidays, I had the chance to tutor students one-on-one in their areas of need.
My first student was a 20-year-old man who struggled with his English reading skills. I would use the resources available to me - in this instance, a poetry book seemed to work well as it focused on pronunciation of words as well as introducing new words into his vocabulary. My second student was an 11-year-old boy who also struggled with basic English. I would assist him in the basics such as months of the year, days of the week, spelling and even basic numeracy skills such as addition and subtraction.
My final student was a 30-year-old woman who had dropped out of high school and lacked the basic literacy and numeracy skills to gain better employment. I saw this as an opportunity to teach and guide her, hopefully opening her up to better employment opportunities in the future. After my initial assessment and determining that her level of English was at a good standard, I was surprised (and delighted) that she had expressed interest in learning mathematics.
This was perfect for me, as I work professionally as an engineer and was able to teach and introduce her to basic concepts in mathematics such as surface area/volume of basic shapes and even an introduction to algebra.
Support from Projects Abroad
During my time in Jamaica I was offered fantastic support from the Projects Abroad local staff. Whether I needed additional resources for my Teaching placement, or needed a recommendation on where to stay/how to get to a location for a weekend away, the staff were always willing to help.
Traveling in Jamaica
My time in Jamaica was not all work! There was definitely an element of fun. During my time, I had the pleasure of meeting fellow volunteers hailing from all corners of the globe. I was the only Australian volunteer during my stay, which I thought worked in my favor. I have forged friendships and connections that I know will last for many years to come.
During weekends, I had the pleasure of exploring Jamaica's beautiful beaches with the other volunteers. Even during these trips away, I managed to run into previous volunteers visiting Jamaica again on vacation! My favorite weekend experiences included soaking up the sun on the beaches of Negril and climbing the Dunn's River Falls in Ocho Rios.
Projects Abroad organized several social activities to encourage volunteer interaction with the local community and introduce volunteers to Jamaican culture. This included a 'dirty day', whereby we were taken to a village outside of Mandeville to help out a local family by helping build a section of their house. We were also introduced to Jamaican dance and were given a fun reggae dance lesson by a professional instructor!
Final Thoughts
My experience with Projects Abroad is one that I look back on with great joy. I already look forward to planning my next volunteer experience in an exotic location. The great, like-minded people I met in my travels, the experiences I shared and cultural learning exchanged will never be forgotten. I felt that I had made a successful contribution to the community through my volunteering effort.

As an introduction, I work for a small scale CRM software vendor. Since our lastest version, we are officially in .NET and have a total API based middle ware architecture. Basically, our APIs are glorified business objects that facades the database (SQL Server). Most of our clients (around 97%) are in .NET and use these APIs to build their eBusiness applications. The rest are in the earlier version and coldfusion based. They will be moving to .NET with the upgrade.
With the new webservices "hype", our architect wants us to drive the webservices way and remove the complete API collection. He wants all clients building eCRM applications to use the webservices to reach for data. His reasoning is that client architecture is independent of the CRM.
I, for one, think this architecture blows because we can accomplish the same goal with a service oriented architecture, have improved performance (SOAPless), be in process and spin less wheels.
I am looking for input from you geniuses out here. Your input will definitely help me build my case over the next few weeks.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - A strong second half in which nationally-ranked No. 10 Babson College converted 13 of its 20 shots helped lead it to a 23-13 win over MIT in a New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) women's lacrosse game on Tuesday. Laura Watson paced the Engineers (1-6, 0-2 NEWMAC) with six goals, including five in a row. Lindsay Bucci (six goals) and Jackie Godfrey (four goals, two assists) led the Beavers (10-1, 3-0 NEWMAC) with six points apiece.
Babson opened the contest with six unanswered goals that featured six different scorers. Jess Parker and Jackie Godfrey assisted in each other's tallies to start the contest. MIT ended the run on Erica Little's unassisted tally at the 17:08 mark. During the next minute, Kaitlyn Pettengill and Anna Collins helped extend the Beavers' lead to 8-1. The Engineers countered with back-to-back goals of their own coming on a free-position shot by Samantha O'Keefe and a strike from Watson that was set-up Casey Flynn. Anita Martignetti and Pettengill pushed Babson's advantage to 10-3 with 8:25 on the clock.
The visitors were held scoreless for the remainder of the half as MIT posted five unanswered goals to close the frame. Little connected on a pass from O'Keefe to start the run as Watson recorded the final four tallies including a pair of free-position shots.
Coming out of the intermission, Watson struck again and cut the Engineers' deficit in half (10-9) after 1:10 elapsed. The Beavers ended their scoring drought on the ensuing draw when Martignetti scooped up the ball and found the back of the net. Collins quickly gave Babson some breathing room with a solo effort at 27:13. MIT continued to attack as Lily He converted a feed from Flynn almost five minutes later to narrow the gap to two (12-10). The Beavers responded with an 11-3 run to close the game, as Lindsay Bucci accounted for five goals and Godfrey tallied three goals and an assist.
O'Keefe finished the night with four draw controls, two goals and an assist while Flynn compiled four draw controls, two assists and a goal. Watson balanced her offensive performance with five groundballs and three caused turnovers. In net, Monique Squiers collected five saves and five groundballs.
Pettengill registered three goals and an assist as Collins contributed four goals. Martignetti notched a hat-trick while Godfrey racked up a game-high six groundballs. Sarah Macary tallied five saves and five goals for the Beavers.
Both squads will host NEWMAC opponents in their upcoming games. MIT will take on Smith College on Saturday, April 12 while Babson will square off with Wellesley College on Tuesday, April 15.

Judgment Day: Intelligent Design on Trial, the NOVA documentary about Kitzmiller v. Dover, was among the winners of the 2008 Science Journalism Awards presented by the American Association for the Advancement of Science to honor excellence in science reporting.
The Texas state board of education is scheduled to hear testimony on the state's science standards on November 19, 2008, and the treatment of evolution is likely to be a contentious issue.
A video project from the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology devotes a segment to discussing paleontology, evolution, and creationism. The thirty-three-minute video, entitled "We Are SVP," debuted on the society's website on October 29, 2008.
NCSE is pleased to announce the publication of the third edition of Voices for Evolution. As NCSE deputy director Glenn Branch explains in his foreword, "Amid the dizzying panoply of creationist activity, what is gratifyingly constant is the thoughtful, balanced, and authoritative opposition from the scientific, educational, and civil liberties communities, as well from a considerable portion of the faith community. Organizations small and large, local, national, and international, have expressed their unflinching support for evolution education. Their statements are collected here, in Voices for Evolution."
After a long and contentious wrangle, the Florida state board of education voted 4-3 at its February 19, 2008, meeting to adopt a new set of state science standards in which evolution is presented as a "fundamental concept underlying all of biology." But now there are concerns that, due to a recent state law, the standards will have to be approved again.

8. Aaronic Priesthood
8.13 Activities
Quorum leaders and quorum advisers plan activities based on the needs and interests of quorum members. They make a special effort to reach out to all young men, including those who have recently joined the Church and those who are less active. Activities may help young men accomplish their goals in the Duty to God program. Quorum leaders should participate as much as possible in planning and carrying out activities.
Plans for quorum activities should be approved by a member of the bishopric and should follow the guidelines in chapter 13.
Most quorum activities occur during a time called Mutual. The term Mutual suggests shared experiences in which there is mutual respect and support for one another and opportunities to learn together. Mutual activities should provide youth with a variety of opportunities to serve others and to develop spiritually, socially, physically, and intellectually.
Mutual is generally held weekly. If travel or other restrictions make this impractical, Mutual may be held less frequently, but it should be held at least monthly. Mutual should be 1 to 1½ hours long and should take place on a day or evening other than Sunday or Monday.
The Young Men presidency, under the direction of the bishopric, oversees Mutual for young men.
Young Men and Young Women presidencies may use Mutual activities to prepare for stake or multistake activities (see 13.3).
Annual Theme for Mutual
Each year, the First Presidency announces a theme for Mutual. Leaders emphasize this theme in Mutual opening exercises and in other youth activities.
Opening Exercises
Mutual usually begins with brief opening exercises presided over by a member of the bishopric. The bishop's priests quorum assistants and members of the Laurel class presidency take turns conducting. Adult leaders prepare youth leaders for this responsibility.
Opening exercises include a hymn and prayer and may also include musical selections and opportunities for the youth to share their talents and testimonies.
Quorum and Class Activities or Combined Activities
Following opening exercises, Aaronic Priesthood quorums and Young Women classes generally hold separate activities. In a ward or branch with few young men, all the young men may meet together for activities. Activities may also be planned for any combination of quorums and classes.
Combined activities for all young men and young women are normally held once a month. Members of the bishopric youth committee schedule, plan, and review these activities in their meetings. The activities are carried out under the direction of the bishopric.
Some examples of appropriate activities are service projects, music, dance, drama, cultural events, sports or athletic events, career exploration, and outdoor activities.
Bishopric Youth Discussions
Bishopric youth discussions are planned and carried out by the bishopric. These discussions, which are held occasionally, give the bishopric opportunities to address subjects that are interesting to the youth and that strengthen the youth spiritually. Topics in For the Strength of Youth and True to the Faith are especially appropriate. Occasionally the bishopric may invite guests to participate. Guests are usually members of the ward or stake.
Bishopric youth discussions may be held with all of the youth together or with the youth of a certain age-group. They may be held during Mutual, on Sunday during the time for quorum meetings and Young Women classes, or at another time that does not put undue burden on families. The bishopric determines their frequency. They are scheduled in bishopric youth committee meetings.
Standards Events
Standards events are special programs that emphasize moral values and eternal goals. They encourage young men to live the standards in For the Strength of Youth, which will bring them closer to the Savior.
These events are held annually, or more often as needed, usually during Mutual. They may be held on a quorum, ward, multiward, or stake level. Depending on how a subject is presented, these events may include any combination of Aaronic Priesthood quorums. They may also include mothers, fathers, mothers and fathers together, and young women.
Where Scouting is authorized by the Church, quorums may participate in Scouting activities during Mutual. Scouting should help young men put into practice the gospel principles they learn on Sunday.
Each member of the bishopric oversees the Scouting program for the Aaronic Priesthood quorum he oversees. Members of the ward Young Men presidency generally serve as Scout leaders. Or the bishopric may call assistant quorum advisers as Scout leaders, with members of the Young Men presidency called to serve as assistant Scout leaders.
In each quorum, the bishop usually appoints the quorum president or one of his assistants in the priests quorum to serve as the youth leader of the Scouting program. However, he may appoint other young men as youth Scout leaders.
Where Scouting is authorized by the Church, young men ages 12 to 15 should be registered. Young men ages 16 and 17 should be registered if they are pursuing rank advancements or if the stake president or bishop chooses to sponsor Scouting programs for young men of this age.
All adult Scout leaders should register before they begin their service and should receive proper training in their responsibilities. In the United States, registered adult leaders receive liability protection from the Boy Scouts of America.
The Church pays all or part of the fees for registering young men and adult leaders in Scouting. The Church also pays for unit chartering. Registration and chartering expenses are paid from the stake general checking account. The Church provides these funds in addition to the budget allowance.
The bishopric organizes a ward Scout committee to ensure that Scouting functions properly as a supporting activity for Aaronic Priesthood quorums.
Where there are few young men, a Scout troop may be organized to serve multiple wards and branches or, in some instances, an entire stake or district.
For information about financing Scouting, see 8.13.7. For additional information about Scouting, see the Church's Scouting Handbook.
Stake and Multistake Activities
See 13.3.
Youth Conference
See 13.4.
Funding for Activities
Funding for Aaronic Priesthood activities, including Scouting activities where they are authorized by the Church, should come from the ward budget (see 13.2.8).
Funding for an Annual Camp or Similar Activity
If the ward budget does not have sufficient funds to pay for an annual extended Scout camp or similar activity for young men, leaders may ask participants to pay for part or all of it. If funds from participants are not sufficient, the bishop may authorize one group fund-raising activity annually that complies with the guidelines in 13.6.8.
In no case should the expenses or travel for an annual camp or similar activity be excessive. Nor should the lack of personal funds prohibit a member from participating.
Funding for Equipment and Supplies
If possible, equipment and supplies that the ward needs for annual youth camps are purchased with ward budget funds. If these funds are not sufficient, the bishop may authorize one group fund-raising activity annually that complies with the guidelines in 13.6.8.
Equipment and supplies purchased with Church funds, whether from the ward budget or a fund-raising activity, are for Church use only. They are not for the personal use of individuals or families.
Church funds may not be used to purchase uniforms for individuals.

Top High School Performers Join UW Singers Thursday
The University of Wyoming Singing Statesmen and Bel Canto Women's Chorus will perform with four high school choirs from across the state in an invitational festival concert Thursday, Oct. 11, at 7:30 p.m. in the Fine Arts concert hall. The concert is free and open to the public.
Each high school choir was selected to participate in the festival based on its excellence and leadership in the state. The focus this year is gendered choirs, and four women's choirs are participating: Laramie High School Girls' Select (Mike Hancey, conductor); Douglas High School Hamilton Avenue (Randy Gifford, conductor); Rock Springs High School Girls' Elite (Leesa Kuhlmann, conductor); and Cheyenne East High School Bella Voce (Beth Kean, conductor).
The choirs will come together during the day to perform for one another; receive guidance from the UW Vocal Arts faculty; learn a piece with the UW Bel Canto Women's Chorus; and perform at the evening concert.
The evening concert will feature the University of Wyoming Bel Canto Women's Chorus (Zach Vreeman, conductor) and the UW Singing Statesmen (Nicole Lamartine, conductor). The Statesmen are a 75-voice non-auditioned men's choir who were selected to perform at last year's regional conference of the American Choral Directors Association in Seattle.
"There was a need in the state for choirs of the same gender to hear and learn from each other. An invitational festival focusing on gendered ensembles was the perfect solution," says Lamartine, the festival coordinator. The UW/ACDA High School Choral Invitational festival is sponsored by the UW Department of Music and the Wyoming chapter of the American Choral Directors Association.

Eminent domain up for debate
Two competing bills are facing lawmakers this session, following a U.S. Supreme Court decision last year to allow government to seize private property for economic development.
"The driving force behind the legislation is the fear - real or perceived - by homeowners that their home will be taken by the government," said Rep. Lewis Wallace , D-Danbury, the co-chairman of the legislature's Planning and Development Committee , which held a public hearing on the matter Wednesday.
"People invest their life in their homes. It should be a rare and extreme instance when government takes a home and gives it to someone else to increase tax revenue."
Although the controversy began in Connecticut in the case of Kelo v. New London, the issue created a stir across the country. Five states passed laws restricting condemnation of homes for economic development, while 37 states are considering such proposals this legislative session.
The House bill in Connecticut's legislature prohibits taking private property for commercial development. Both the House and Senate bills call for increasing the compensation given to landowners whose land is condemned, and a two-thirds majority of a city council or board of selectmen to approve a condemnation.
"The system works well now. This issue has gotten headlines it doesn't deserve," said First Selectman Rudy Marconi of Ridgefield, which just fought a major eminent domain battle over the undeveloped Bennett's Pond property.
"This was the first time we ever used it that I'm aware of," Marconi said. "It's not a pleasant experience, but I don't think the state should take that right away from us."
Marconi and other municipal officials insist the ability to condemn property for economic development is essential for the progress of cities and towns. Others argue that eminent domain should be used only for public purposes, such as schools and roads, and never for commercial development.
Ridgefield condemned 613 acres of property last year. Of that, 458 acres will be used for green space, while 155 acres will be used for economic development, Marconi said. The town paid $12 million to compensate the owners.
Condemnation should be the last resort for any purpose, even public projects, Brookfield First Selectman Jerry Murphy said.
"The fact that people have lived in their homes for years should count for something," Murphy said. "That doesn't mean you should pay two or three times more for a project to route pipes around a home every time, but all alternatives (to seizure) should be looked at."
Brookfield has had some property seized by the state for the extension of Route 7. The state took the Fairfield Resources gravel and sandstone pit and some small industrial areas, Murphy said, and the former owners have gone to court for a better price. Murphy didn't know the amount the companies were paid for the property.
Republican lawmakers thought both bills could be stronger, and they said the test should be whether the new laws would prohibit a situation similar to what happened in New London last year.
"Very few issues are this easy to understand. My constituents have shown feelings of outrage, surprise, and some are scared," said Sen. John McKinney , a Fairfield Republican whose district includes Newtown. "Few homes will be taken by eminent domain, but anyone's home can be taken by eminent domain."
Alabama, Delaware, Ohio and Texas all passed laws restricting the seizure of property for development, while Michigan passed a proposed state constitutional amendment to be voted on this November. Like Connecticut's proposals, these laws made exceptions for blight. However, most did not define blight.
House Minority Leader Robert Ward , R-North Branford, told the committee the state bills should define blight as a building that poses a clear public health and public safety risk.
The proposals are far too restrictive for cities and towns that already use the power of eminent domain very sparingly, said Ron Thomas , the manager of state and federal relations for the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities. The toughest provision is requiring a super majority approval to condemn property, he said.
Bristol City Councilman Craig Minor said he could support allowing a town referendum before a project is approved but insisted municipalities must have the right of eminent domain.
"The notion that people will wake up tomorrow and find their home has been condemned is nonsense," he said to the committee. "There is a whole process this would have to go through."
The entire issue should be up to voters, said Susan Kneip , president of the Federation of Connecticut Taxpayers . She wants a constitutional amendment considered in the fall.
"It is not the bricks and mortar but the heart and soul of families which government is trampling on when they take possession of private property from one and give to another," Kneip, a former East Hartford mayor, said to the committee.
"Redevelopment is the precursor to eminent domain. It's big business. It enriches developers, lobbyists, attorneys, consultants and those special interests aligned with government officials who pass laws and undermine our rights."

DailyDirt: Will Refill Cartridges For Food Printers Be Insanely Expensive?
from the urls-we-dig-up dept
- Peter Thiel's philanthropic foundation has invested in Modern Meadow -- a company that will develop 3D bioprinting techniques for disrupting the current meat industry. Growing edible meat tissue without a farm could be more environmentally friendly, but one of the company's first goals is to just grow a 1-inch long piece of synthetic meat suitable for eating. [url]
- Cornell University has a food printing lab as part of its Fab@Home venture. This group has been working on printing food since 2007, and the researchers speculate that food printers could vastly reduce the time people spend preparing food. [url]
- Burritob0t is an open source project to create a Tex-Mex 3D printer, capable of generating tasty, custom burritos from extruding ingredients such as beans, rice, cheese and salsa onto a tortilla. Unfortunately, lettuce and chunky salsa aren't on this robot's menu -- but perhaps a meat paste could be added... [url]
- Chocolate lovers in the UK might want to thank researchers at the University of Exeter for creating a 3D printer that prints layers of chocolate. These developers want to create a website that anyone can print chocolate creations from -- but they'll probably need a really good Spam filter before they turn that feature on. [url]

(Seedrs) NearDesk (2nd Round)
NearDesk (2nd Round)
The oyster card for desks: rent office space by the hour at various locations around the UK!
Investment sought: £50,000
Idea Details
Product(s) and/or Service(s)
NearDesk would let users touch-in, touch-out and rent work space by the hour at different locations around the UK. They'll only pay for the time they've used - with a single monthly invoice for the whole company.
Cards would be issued by NearDesk - or by partners who issue co-branded cards in return for commission (5% of spend for two years)
Later we have plans to allow users to use an "NFC" enabled phone instead of a card.
We planned to raise £84,500 via Seedrs - which was 100% funded on 14 Nov 2012. We realised that there were passionate advocates who wanted to invest but did not invest in time - so are doing this follow-on funding, at approximately the same price, to get more advocates behind us and to give a cash buffer.
Intended Impact
We want to let people work productively anywhere.
In particular, our ten-year mission is to enable a million people to work near home one day per week.
We believe workers would combine working at the office, home, coffee shops - and hot-desks.
Working near home would significantly reduce the time, stress and pollution associated with daily commuting. According to research carried out by O2, 52% of their Carbon emissions came from staff getting to work each day.
Companies would be able to reduce costs by cutting empty desks whilst retaining and attracting great people (Average Central London Workstation: £12,400/year).
We believe the other benefits of our system would include:
> A hundred million hours saved commuting each year
> A less stressed, more productive work force
> More dynamic, more profitable companies
> More vibrant communities with people able to shop on their high streets and kiss their children good night
Substantial Accomplishments to Date
> Our website is live
> We spoke at the industry conference (BCA) - and are speaking to a number of operators as a result.
> In July we opened our own 5,000 sq ft location at London Bridge and you are welcome to come and see for yourself the system being used daily by real users.
> We have built the first version of the software
> 39 locations already have card readers installed - and we plan to start accepting paying users very soon (as soon as we finish testing the billing software)
> We raised £84,500 on Seedrs - Company 903
Monetisation Strategy
Users pay for their usage at rates set by the operator of the location (For example, View61 is £4/hour up to £25/day)
Of that spend the breakdown would be as follows:
> 87% goes to the location
> 5% goes to the card issuer
> 8% goes to NearDesk
Or if a location is also the card issuer for that user (future)
> 97% goes to the location
> 3% goes to NearDesk
Users pay £20 per year for the card. In a users first year, we would keep the first £20 they spend in a location.
To subsidise this core business earning a percentage of spend in other locations, we plan to operate 3-5 locations in Central London.
The first opened two months ago. Despite opening over the summer and being in a non-Central location it is already covering over a third of the costs of the business.
The locations we operate would be structured as partnerships with landlords to avoid taking on ongoing commitments.
Use of Proceeds
Note: These are additional funds to give a cash buffer and allow key individuals to take a stake in NearDesk.
Our objectives for the next six months are:
A. Rapidly getting to break-even to remove the need for additional funding and let us focus on profitably scaling the core business
B. Launch, measure and optimise a scalable way to recruit users. These statistics would help us recruit more partners to issue cards and more locations to host events and accept cards.
The actions we believe would achieve this are:
1. Finalise the billing software for hourly users and roll-out to fifty locations.
2. Finalise the event software which lets locations host events for partners as a way of gaining new NearDesk users. Get ten locations hosting events.
3. Profitably open more locations and maximise the revenue from these by focusing on the operating model we will use to help fill other locations.
4. Work on pilots for major long-term partnerships.
Market Details
Target Market
Initially freelancers and small companies.
Our initial marketing strategy is to target those who belong to partner networks and attend networking events.
We find that they currently work at home which can be lonely - or pay to use coffee shops which can be less productive - and involves piles of receipts.
We believe the mass market would come from employees of larger companies working near home part of their week. Companies, we feel, currently have to have larger offices than they need - and not everyone is able to work from home.
Commuting is not a purely London centric problem - with the national average commute being 45 minutes each way (7.5 hours per week) - most of it in cars.
Characteristics of Target Market
3.7 million people now work at home part of their week. But home working can be lonely and not suitable for all, leading to the growth of hubs and business centres to enable hot-desk working in professional shared workspaces.
There are now 2,000 business centres and at least 129 UK work hubs (up from just 24 in 2008). The market is still very fragmented; the largest, best known provider has 160 UK business centres. Similar trends are happening globally.
In our opinion property is one of the largest costs for many companies and the cost and stress of commuting artificially increase the salaries commanded by talented staff. Technology now allows flexible working combining time in the office with home, coffee-shops and flexible work hubs. With 100 million square feet empty in the UK, we believe the trend will continue from 25 year to 3 month to hourly leases. UK Government plans to start hot-desking to reduce their £25bn/year property costs with an 8 desks for 10 staff guideline.
Marketing Strategy
We expect early users to come from networking events at a hub on the NearDesk network. We do not yet have hubs everywhere - and our experience suggests that users like to see a location before they start using them. Doing this individually is impractical - so we plan to invite existing groups to different NearDesk partner locations.
Members of existing networks would RSVP to attend their usual meetings via the NearDesk website. When they arrive at the location, they would be given a NearDesk card. The day after the event, they would get an email inviting them back to that venue - we plan to provide £40 of free wine from Naked Wine if they spend four hours there in the next two weeks.
(This would be profitable for us - even if they choose not to return)
We also plan to partner with existing networking groups to issue co-branded cards. This would be more effective when we have a broader range of locations.
We already have the functionality to track different partners and issue different brands of card.
The incentives for a partner organisation to promote NearDesk cards would be:
> To earn 5% of spend for the first two years (£100/user spending £20/week)
> To bring their network to life and drive traffic to their website by connecting their members when they are in hubs
> To get their users carrying their card. We plan to add simple tools to let these cards be used for other purposes so that more groups issue them
> To get access to free locations for events (Subject to locations offering their space)
We expect to increase these activies by promoting viral (refer a friend) behaviours.

Streamers fell from the rafters Friday night inside Staples Center, the Lakers having beaten the middling Utah Jazz to end a four-game losing streak.
No one should cheer anything short of a 10-game winning streak with this team, given the way things have gone in a one-step-forward, four-steps-back kind of season.
There won't be any celebrating three months from now unless radical changes are made involving this mishmash roster or a coach who can identify what's wrong but can't seem to fix it.
Neither seems likely.
Beleaguered Coach Mike D'Antoni is apparently here to stay after receiving a vote of confidence Thursday from Lakers executives Jim Buss and Mitch Kupchak.

In-state tuition passes House 40-21
By Joe Hanel
Journal Denver Bureau
DENVER - After 10 years of trying, immigrant advocates finally saw the Legislature approve in-state tuition for the children of illegal immigrants Friday.
The vote in the House marked a dramatic change in the public debate over immigration, with first Democrats and, this year, some Republicans adding their support to the bill.
Senate Bill 33 passed the House on a 40-21 vote, It already passed the Senate and now goes to Gov. John Hickenlooper, who has said he will sign it.
The bill allows Colorado high school graduates to qualify for in-state tuition, regardless of their immigration status, as long as they attended Colorado high schools for three years and pledge to apply for legal status.
House supporters recognized what they called a historic moment.
"It is a piece of legislation that generations of people will point to as the moment in time when the wisdom of this General Assembly held that Colorado's own children - children who love this state, children who have given to our societal enlightenment, children who have contributed to our economy - were finally and fully recognized as something more than illegal or undocumented," said Rep. Joe Salazar, D-Thornton.
But support was not unanimous. Republican opponents argued that without federal immigration reform, the tuition bill offered only false hope to immigrant students.
"We're missing the point. With or without a college degree, these kids can't get a job," said Rep. Polly Lawrence, R-Littleton.
But dozens of students and advocates for the bill thought otherwise. Their cheers echoed through the Capitol for half an hour as they hugged and high-fived in the hallway outside the House chamber.
Advocates have struggled to pass the bill since 2003 and originally had trouble convincing even Democrats. Versions of it died in the Democratic-controlled Senate before the chamber finally passed it in 2011. But the last two years, it died in the Republican-controlled House.
As recently as 2006, Democrats were bragging about passing the toughest anti-illegal immigration bill in the country - a move they took to preempt an even stricter ballot measure.
This year, every Democrat in the Legislature voted for the tuition bill, and six Republicans joined them.
The shift mirrors a newly invigorated bipartisan effort in Washington to pass a national immigration reform bill.
Locally, Rep. Mike McLachlan, D-Durango, voted yes, and Rep. Don Coram, R-Montrose, voted no.

Hi guys
Im thinking about setting up a wireless network between my house and two friends.
My question is what exactly will i need to to this, both cheaply and securely?
I have thought about the 802.11b USB wireless adaptors for both client laptops, which cost around £80 each but i am unsure as to what the host laptop (mine) would need, in order to make this network work effiently.
The range from my house to both me friends would be around 1400 feet.
Any suggestions on products, set up information and prices is greatly appreciated.
Cheers guys
ps maybe theres a tutorial on this but i couldnt find it, so please bear with me.

Here couple photos from tweep Shady Ahmed who took snap shot for the explosion and described the explosion this time as huge and big.
|By Shady Ahmed
|By Shady Ahmed
This pipeline is used to export natural gas to both Israel and Jordan. I do not need to speak how people in Egypt do not want the government to export gas to Israel because of political reasons as well economic reasons.
I have lost counting when it comes to how many this pipeline has been blown up by anonymous masked group since the beginning of the revolution but I think it is the first time this year.
I wonder if the parliament will press the government to re-negotiate the price of the gas with Israel if not to cancel the deal till all the Egyptian houses especially those in Upper Egypt get access to gas.
By the way there have been reports today that one of the suspects arrested and accused of blowing up this pipeline has been found dead in his prison cell in the weekend in mysterious circumstances. Human rights organizations in Egypt suspect that he was tortured till death.
Whether he was tortured till death or not , his arrest did not stop those anonymous masked group from blowing up the bloody pipeline once again.
Update :
According to Ahram SMS the authorities have managed at last to put off the fire resulted from the explosion. We are speaking about SMS in 11 AM CLT. According to eye witnesses the explosion was indeed huge and big.
According to those who follow the gas pipeline file , this is the 11th time the pipeline is blown up.
RNN has published on its official Facebook page scans for a statement allegedly was found near the blown up pipeline. The Statement speaks about why that anonymous group 'which I do not see its signature in these scans' blew up the the pipeline. The statement did not mention that this operation is for the murder or the death of late suspect Mohamed Eid in custody.
Some tweep claimed online that some anonymous group in North Sinai called "Ansar El Jihad" stood behind the explosion. It is worth to mention that this group claimed responsibility for blowing up the pipeline in December 2011. The group's first statement was issued last October responisbility for that operation at the Egyptian Israeli borders where 8 IDF soldiers in August 2011. The group issued a third statement on January 25,2012 "interesting date" announcing the Islamic principality of Sinai and endorsing Ayman El Zawahiri to the end of the Jihadi classic styles phrases attacking those who cooperate with the infidel government.. etc.

Dragons top All-NISC lists as Binkley named player of year
ARGOS — The Argos boys soccer team was awarded six All-Northern Indiana Soccer Conference picks — including NISC Player of the Year honors — following the Dragons' conference championship season, the team announced Tuesday.
Sophomore striker Damon Binkley was voted the league's player of the year, while fellow sophomores Josiah Osborn, Taylor Ogle and Zack Stockman were all named first team All-NISC. Senior Jordan O'Dell and junior Dominic Cataldo were selected for second team honors, meanwhile.
The 19th-ranked Dragons upset No. 6 Bethany Christian 2-1 in the de facto conference title match Oct. 21 at Argos, ending a string of five straight NISC championships by the Bruins. The win clinched Argos a perfect 5-0 league finish and gave the team its first NISC title since 1998.
The Dragons went on to win a repeat Caston Regional title, the program's first such repeat since 1997-98.
Bethany, which finished second in the conference at 4-1, was awarded three first team picks — most notably Trent Yoder was named the conference goalkeeper of the year — and three second team picks.
Culver Military Academy wound up in third with its 3-2 finish. Luther Jacobs and Manuel Ituarte were both named first team all-conference, and Tanner Grant, Nathaniel Falls-Feldman and Pablo Padilla were all named to the league's second team.
Trinity finished fourth in the NISC and was awarded two first team and two second team selections. Elkhart Christian placed fifth in the final standings and was given one first team and two second team picks, and Lakeland Christian, which rounded out the conference standings with a winless NISC slate, was given one pick on each of the all-league teams.

That's what one New York City cop told Roger Simon yesterday, during an anti-Bush protests. The overriding purpose of tonight's session of the Republican convention — from Ron Silver's speech, to John McCain's, to the tributes from the loved ones of the 9/11 heroes, to Guiliani's remarkable address — was to remind us that 9/11 did happen. We know in our hearts, and the polls confirm, that if Americans really remember, and therefore focus on, 9/11, they will re-elect President Bush and it won't be all that close.
