My Room: Jett
Fly away with Kirsten to visit her son Jett's room: My son's name is Jett. In designing his nursery I wanted to steer clear of the obvious airplane theme. But guess what? I just couldn't do it. The airplanes kept calling to me. If I had to describe this room in 3 words they would be; Adventure, Colorful and Sentimental.
Jett's room is full of mementos from my husband's childhood and even has a few items from our travels. The biggest challenge in the room was the size. I've seen closets bigger than this room. It's tiny! I wanted each item in the room to be meaningful, whimsical or functional.
• The crib is from Wal-Mart and the bedding I had made by an Etsy seller.
• The prints above the crib I got on Etsy from another seller.
• Since I wanted Jett's room to have a semi-adventurous feel to it I loved the idea of globes hanging from the ceiling. I got them at a Utah Idaho Supply store just down the street from my house.
• I saw this cute display done at Anthropologie with a strand of paper airplanes. I had my husband fold a whole bunch of them and I strung them together. They go from one wall to the other right over the crib and changing table.
• The "J" was a gift.
• The globes all have special meaning behind them. The tall one I got for my husband when I was in Russia, the middle one he had when he was in Brazil and the smallest one was a gift my parents got for me in Europe.
• The little schoolhouse picture on the right was done by my husband's grandmother. It kinda looks like needlepoint and it hung in his nursery when he was a baby.
• The poster above the changing table is a reproduction of a vintage poster from the airline my husband flies for.
• We bought the changing table on Craigslist and I changed out the knobs for some I bought at Alice Lane Home Collection.
• The two airplane models are my husband's.
This room is my pride and joy. I love bringing my little boy in here and watching his eyes take in his room. It's perfect.
Thanks Kirsten and Jett! (Kirsten invites you to see more at 6th Street Design School)

NFL star Darrelle Revis charged with felony assault, robbery in violent Pittsburgh altercation
New York Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis, a multi-time All-Pro and Pro Bowl selection, is facing felony charges stemming from an early-morning street altercation in the Pittsburgh neighborhood South Side last weekend.
An online docket shows that Revis was charged Thursday night with aggravated assault, robbery, terroristic threats and conspiracy. The 31-year-old Aliquippa native is not in custody, and it's unclear if he is still in Pennsylvania.
Attorney Blaine Jones said he would contact police to arrange for Revis to turn himself in. "He's not going to run from a warrant," Jones said.
Police issued the following statement, confirming details that were previously reported by WTAE.com.
"On Sunday, February 12 at approximately 2:43 a.m., Zone 3 Officers were dispatched to the intersection of S. 23rd and E. Carson streets for a report that two males had been knocked unconscious. According to the investigation, a 22-year-old male from Kittanning was walking along E. Carson Street when he spotted a male who resembled Aliquippa native Darrelle Revis, a cornerback in the NFL. He asked if the man was Darrell Revis and he confirmed that he was. The male began recording the interaction on his cellphone and continued following Revis. At some point, Revis snatched the cellphone away and attempted to delete the video. Another 21-year-old male from Ross Township attempted to help the 22-year-old retrieve the cellphone. Revis then tossed the phone onto the roadway. A verbal argument followed. A male came to assist Revis. Both the 22-year-old and the 21-year-old state they were punched then remember waking up to talk to police. Witnesses state the two were unconscious for about 10 minutes. The officers viewed the cellphone video and confirmed that the person was Revis. Charges are pending against the 31-year-old Revis to include robbery, terroristic threats, conspiracy and aggravated assault."
Both of the injured men were taken to the hospital, and one of them suffered broken bones around his eye, sources close to the investigation say.
Lydia Watt said her brother, Nathan Watt, an IUP student, was with the two alleged victims but was not struck during the incident.
"He was with two of his buddies down in the South Side over the weekend, and I see a Snapchat of his friend laying in a hospital bed," she said. "I immediately texted him and said, 'What is (your friend) doing in a hospital bed?' He said, 'Darrelle Revis knocked him out.'"
Jones told a different story, claiming that Revis is the one who was assaulted.
"He was not the aggressor that night. He was 1,000 percent the victim," Jones said. "He tried to retreat. He did everything in his power to try to get this situation to die down, to de-escalate this situation that the other group started. Darrelle was by himself when he was physically assaulted by one of the men, and unfortunately, at what point in time do you say enough is enough?"
When asked if Revis threw any punches, Jones said, "All I can tell you is that if any punches were thrown, they were thrown in self-defense, but Darrelle did not initiate any of the physical contact. Do you think Darrelle Revis would go down to the South Side and start throwing punches?"
Revis had come to Pittsburgh for a visit with family and friends, and he went to the South Side to look at "a location that he is in the process of developing," Jones said.
One of the most acclaimed football stars in WPIAL history, Revis was named the Class AA Player of the Year in Pennsylvania after leading Aliquippa High School to a state title in 2003. He went on to play for Pitt, where he earned All-America and All-Big East honors.
Revis was drafted 14th overall by the Jets in 2007. His NFL career has also included stints with Tampa Bay and New England, where he was a member of the Super Bowl XLIX championship team.

April is already a month filled with exciting news, no foolin'! First of all, we have two exciting shows coming up. The first with the lovely Driftwood Singers on Easter Sunday evening is at Birmingham's favorite dive, The Nick. The following weekend will find us in the midst of one of the South's newest festivals, Southsounds Music Festival, in Mobile, Alabama. So many great bands from around the region are on the roster, so if you know anyone in the bay area or Eastern gulf coast region, make sure to tell them to find their way there! We're scheduled for Saturday night and Sunday afternoon!
As you may know, Janet has been working for the last year and a half with one of the greatest songwriters in America, James Jackson Toth, aka Wooden Wand. She performed on the album Briarwood released in 2011, and just finished recording on another Wooden Wand album earlier this year. Having now done two tours with WW, she and James have made great friends. As a result, she sent him an early copy of the upcoming Ring. James loved it so much, he mentioned it in Magnet Magazine this week! This is a huge honor for the band to have such an endorsement.
Look for two more Wooden Wand shows with James, Janet and the entire gang from the most recent recording in May in Nashville and Louisville opening for none other than Lee Ranaldo! More details on that soon, so keep checking back!

RICHMOND, Va. (BP) -- Did you see the picture of Marwan, the 4-year-old Syrian boy recently found wandering in the desert near the Syria-Jordan border?
A news photo of the refugee child went viral on social media. It attracted far more attention than the hundreds of Syrian refugees who cross the same border every day and night to escape the murderous war in their country. Turns out Marwan wasn't alone; he had temporarily fallen behind his family members, who were among about 1,000 Syrians making the chaotic border crossing that particular day. Relief workers reunited the child with his parents about 10 minutes after the photo was taken.
People around the world responded to the photo because it depicted a lost child, dragging a plastic bag with his few belongings, seemingly alone in the world. Who wouldn't feel compassion for this little boy? His personal, heartbreaking plight is easier to understand than the struggle of millions of refugees experiencing the same thing.
"A single death is a tragedy. A million deaths is a statistic." That statement is attributed to Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin, who knew something about engineering death on a mass scale. He understood that most people can't fully comprehend events affecting great multitudes, especially if those events are happening far away.
Media have radically changed the global landscape since Stalin's time, however. News travels instantaneously. Digital devices bring us images of tragedies, wars and disasters 24/7, if we choose to watch. But that poses a new problem. The constant onslaught of events and information dulls our senses. We have our own daily problems. We turn away. Americans in particular, living far from many of the world's conflict zones, tend to turn inward.
"It's not that Americans are disinterested in foreign affairs, it's that their interest is finely calibrated," observes geopolitical analyst George Friedman. "The issues must matter to Americans, so most issues must carry with them a potential threat. The outcome must be uncertain, and the issues must have a sufficient degree of clarity so that they can be understood and dealt with."
There aren't that many global crises that neatly fit such criteria in these confusing times. The outcome of the war in Syria is uncertain, but its multiple causes and combatants are anything but clear to us. Does its eventual outcome, regardless of who wins, threaten us directly? Hard to say. One could say the same of the current troubles in Ukraine, Venezuela, Egypt, Thailand, South Sudan, the Central African Republic and other places. Trouble is always brewing somewhere. Let them sort it out, we say. We're tired of being the world's policeman.
"Whether this sentiment is good or bad is debatable," Friedman said. "I would argue that it is a luxury, albeit a temporary one, conferred on Americans by geography."
Weary of years of war and overseas entanglements, many Americans are ready to withdraw behind our spacious borders -- physically or psychologically -- until something so big happens that we can't ignore it.
That's a national choice. But God calls His followers to greater things. If we serve Him, we are citizens of the world, no matter how chaotic the world may seem. In my last column, I asked how we can continue to go into the world and make disciples as a new age of upheaval dawns. Withdrawal is not an option for world-hearted Christians, because it implies one of two things: fear or indifference.
"This past month we have seen an amazing outpouring of God's Spirit," said IMB worker Brady Sample,* who lives in Kiev, the violence-torn capital of Ukraine, a nation on the edge of cracking apart. "God is moving. This event is causing people to pray, and while they are praying for peace in the land, God is trying to bring peace into people's hearts."
No matter how difficult the destination or the situation, God will go with us. In fact, He's already there, waiting for us to meet Him.
Don't miss the appointment.

Demystifying wired data communications for security applications initially sounds like a very broad topic, but if we assume a useful distance and reasonable data rates, plus the ability to deliver power, then in fact it can be narrowed down to just a few technologies.
Many common wired communications formats can be discounted due to their very short range (such as USB, SCSI, Firewire and others). Simple serial data connections such as RS232, while still a stalwart of the security industry, have data rates which are far too low to be considered for anything other than very slow-speed connections for simple devices and therefore lie outside the scope of this article.
We are discussing mediumrange systems, such as those which would be useful on a particular security site. This means long-range technologies such as DSL are excluded. Although fiber-optic cabling might be used within a large site, this, too, is excluded from our review as it is a specialist subject in itself and also because it cannot transmit power. As this is still a large topic in a short article, for t he re ade r who would like to know more detail, we have suggested some keywords for Internet searches in square brackets.
Thus, our focus is wired communications which can carry power, video, audio and other high-speed data for security systems. The common factor here is Ethernet, which in the last 10 years has become the dominant networking and high-speed data communications technology, so much so that it is hardly worth considering anything else. Even small, low-cost devices are being fitted with Ethernet connections, and access control systems are rapidly switching over to IP-based technology, as is surveillance. The main driving force behind all this is simplification: If all devices share a common Ethernet capability, the problem of integration becomes one of software, and the problem of incompatible and proprietary hardwired connectors and communication protocols disappears.
Having established that Ethernet is the almost universal standard, let us consider the transmission medium options. These include electrical power delivery cables, unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cabling (such as common CAT5e/6 network cabling), single twisted-pair (STP) cable (such as telephone cable) and coaxial cabling (such as that used for analog video in CCTV systems).
PLCPower-line communications (PLC) systems have been developed by power utility companies with deregulation driving them to seek new business opportunities. Viewing their installed power cables as potential data communications systems, they funded or inspired the development of PLC technology. While long-distance, high data rate communications over power lines has
considerable challenges due to noise generation, local PLC systems are now quite common within domestic environments. The most common standard employed is that of the HomePlug Powerline Alliance, and there are a multitude of manufacturers of these systems [search "HomePlug AV"]. However useful for domestic applications, it is doubtful whether PLC is particularly useful for security applications, especially in industrial or corporate settings, where other devices on the "network" are very likely to attenuate the signals and/or cause interference.
By definition, PLC systems are able to carry power, so that is hardly an issue. However, data rates are directly proportional to distance and again, while that data rate versus distance trade-off may be acceptable for a house, it becomes far less attractive in a larger office building or warehouse and completely impractical in a hospital, university, city center, prison or airport, to name a few [search "Power line communications"].

Editor's note: Since last August, our columnist has been filing his stories from Cameroon, West Africa.
At the end of the movie "The Color of Money," a rejuvenated, if middle-age, "Fast Eddie" Felson (Paul Newman), pronounces triumphantly, "I'm back!"
That's me, sort of. After 10 months in Africa, I'm here to announce tentatively: "I'm back?"
Editor's note: Our columnist has been spending this year in Cameroon, West Africa.
I had a good day on Good Friday, last month: I played golf.
I hope to play one more time before I come home to Vermont in late June.
There are four golf courses in all of Cameroon, this in a country of 22.5 million people, covering 183,000 square miles, in an area slightly larger than California.
For the past three weekends, Richard, Valentine, and I have been undertaking a bit of light hoop anthropology, visiting the outdoor basketball courts scattered about the city here in Yaounde.
The big news in the basketball world last week was that 7'0" Kansas freshman center Joel Embiid ("jo-el em-beed") will leave college and enter the NBA draft in June.
Editor's note: Independentsports columnist Karl Lindholm is filing his reports this year from Yaounde, Cameroon, West Africa.
Are the Boston Celtics trying to lose games on purpose?
Well, not exactly.
It's clear the Celtics' effort on the floor in games is admirable, but the team is not competitive with the best in the league.

Health Care Expert Jonathan Cohn: GOP's Plan To Eliminate Essential Health Benefits Won't "Reduce Costs"
Video ››› ››› MEDIA MATTERS STAFF

Loading the player reg...
Jonathan Cohn, whose coverage of health care for The New Republic has drawn frequent praise, offers the latest assessment of the media's coverage of the reform fight of the past year. Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz has provided a few such assessments, but his tend to consist of little more than mindless cheerleading for his colleagues that doesn't stand up to the slightest scrutiny. Cohen's take, on the other hand, deserves more attention.
Cohn, for example, seems to recognize one of the key characteristics that made his (and Ezra Klein's) health care reporting valuable:
I certainly spent far more time on the more mundane task of explanation-whether it was describing how a particular policy proposal might work or laying out the political dynamics of a particular moment. Occasionally this writing got a lot of attention, because it included a reporting tidbit that qualified as a scoop. More often, it didn't. But over time I came to realize that the mere sharing of information has enormous value-even to people in Washington who, you might suppose, already know what they need to know.
Indeed, one of the many lessons I learned over the last year is that, even at the very highest levels of power, people frequently operate with limited knowledge and perspective. That's true of how they think about policy and that's true of how they think about politics.
I've argued more times than I care to count that this is what the public (including "Washington Insiders" who, as Cohn notes, often know less than you, and they, would expect) needs from the media: Clear explanations of policy. It's such a basic thing, but one that is often lost amid paragraph after paragraph allegation and response and "analysis" of how things are likely to "play." We don't need to know that Senate Staffer X says Tax Provision Y will be a political albatross for Political Party Z -- we just need to know who the provision affects, why, and how.
There's real value in explanation -- far more, I would argue, than in simply reporting the day's latest developments and charges and counter-charges and speculation. And in repeated explanation -- it isn't enough to explain one time how Tax Provision Y will affect readers, while devoting dozens of articles to detailing claims and counter-claims about it. You can't expect readers or viewers to have seen that one explanation, or to remember and apply it to each time they hear Senate Staffer X make a claim about it. Telling the truth once isn't enough. Not if your goal is to give your readers and viewers the tools they need to make informed decisions.
So I'm thrilled that Cohn discusses the value of the "mundane task of explanation," and hope it catches on.
One of Cohn's central points about the media's coverage of health care is that the coverage "took place at internet speed" and was produced by a diverse array of news outlets -- and that, as a result, the media was able to expose falsehoods "just a little more quickly -- and, hopefully, a bit more effectively." Cohn offers an example:
Consider what happened in September, when the insurance industry released a study purporting to show that reform would cause insurance premiums to skyrocket. The Senate Finance Committee-the logjam in the legislative process-was set to vote on its bill in less than 48 hours. The study, commissioned by the insurance lobby and conducted by a private accounting firm, represented a clear effort to undermine support. It was the kind of move that lobbying groups make all the time-and, in the old days, it might have worked, since nobody would have seen through the study's tilted assumptions until, as with McCaughey's old article, the damage had been done. But within hours of its publication, several blogs, including this one, had published critiques showing just how flawed the study was. The critiques circulated in Washington and provoked a backlash against the insurers. Wavering Democrats said they were offended by the effort at political sabotage; the Finance Committee went on to pass the bill, as it had originally planned.
Cohn portrays the coverage of the insurance industry study as an example of how well the media did its job. But it is also a reminder of how badly the Washington Post (among others) failed its readers.
See, when the study came out, the Post's Ceci Connolly hyped the study without making any attempt to assess its validity -- even though by the time her article ran, Cohn had already noted that the study was based on assumptions it acknowledged were false.
The next day, Connolly wrote another article about the study -- an article that again failed to assess the study's credibility, failed to note the dubious track record of the firm that conducted it, and failed to explain the assumptions and limitations of the study. Her article even failed to mention that the accounting firm that conducted the study had already begun distancing itself from the way the insurance lobby was using it.
The day after that, yet another Connolly article focused on the insurance industry's attack on health care reform. Finally, in the 19th paragraph of that article, Connolly got around to mentioning that the accounting firm was distancing itself from the study -- but she still couldn't bring herself to mention that the study was based on assumptions it acknowledged were unlikely to come true.
Six days later, the Washington Post gave an insurance industry executive op-ed space to defend the study and decry the "relentless public relations campaign" against it.
Cohn is right that the bogus study was less damaging than it could have been had it not been swiftly debunked -- and that the people who did the debunking deserve praise. But it was also more damaging than it should have been, in no small part because of the absolutely dreadful job the Washington Post did of covering it.
And that's ultimately what any assessment of the media's coverage of health care reform comes down to: Compared to what? To coverage of similar efforts in the past? To how badly they could have done things? Compared to how well they can reasonably be expected to do? Compared to a platonic ideal of flawless coverage?
My own view is that the media's coverage of health care reform was much better than it could have been (explanatory journalism like that provided by Cohn and Klein being a key reason) and much worse than it should have been, and that there are lessons to be learned from both the success and the failures.

Well, the biggest point I was trying to make was that your computer generally doesn't care what its current IP is when figuring out how to route packets.
Gatito wrote:In my defense, I did mention the tables. Yes, I agree I could have done a way better explanation for this part but when I though about explaining about what happens if it points to a local source I couldn't help myself saying that I should explain subnet masking which honestly I felt way too lazy to do so I skipped it altogether.
The table you mentioned sounded more like the DHCP client's table, not the routing table. I don't see why you'd have to explain subnets either. It would've been better to say that the router checks to see if the destination is a local address.
To be fair, though, some routers will check the DHCP table, and then send the packet to only that computer instead of sending it out on a bridge, that way computers on the local network only see packets meant for them.

U.S. regulators on Monday charged the Chinese affiliates of five top accounting firms with violating securities laws, alleging they refused to produce audit documents in connection with accounting fraud investigations into Chinese companies.
Continue Reading Below
The Securities and Exchange Commission began proceedings against the Chinese units of Deloitte & Touche; Ernst & Young; KPMG; PricewaterhouseCoopers and BDO.
The firms violated laws that require foreign public accounting firms to provide audit work papers involving any company trading on U.S. markets, the SEC said.
An administrative law judge will schedule a hearing to determine potential sanctions against the firms, the SEC said.
The SEC has been examining several China-based companies listed in the United States for accounting irregularities, but the inquiries have stalled amid difficulties in obtaining audit documents from China.
Last year the agency took Deloitte to federal court to try to force the firm to turn over documents in connection with an investigation into Longtop Financial Technologies Ltd, but in July sought to delay that legal battle, citing ongoing negotiations with Chinese regulators.
The accounting firms have resisted turning over materials citing Chinese secrecy laws.
Reuters reported last month that talks between the two countries over access to audit documents are expected by year-end.
In a statement, Deloitte said: "While it is unfortunate that the two countries have not yet been able to find common ground on these issues, we remain hopeful that a diplomatic agreement can be reached, and we stand ready to assist that effort in any way we can."
Ernst & Young's China affiliate, Ernst & Young Hua Ming, said in a statement it hoped U.S. and Chinese regulators can reach agreement.
The other firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Children need immunizations (shots) to protect them from dangerous childhood diseases. These diseases can have serious complications and even kill children.
Children need immunizations (shots) to protect them from dangerous childhood diseases. These diseases can have serious complications and even kill children.
Children under 5 are especially susceptible to disease because their immune systems have not built up the necessary defenses to fight infection.
By immunizing on time (by age 2), you can protect your child from disease and also protect others at school or day care.
A shot record should be started when your child receives his/her first vaccination and updated with each vaccination visit.
Like any medicine, there may be minor side effects.
Side effects can occur with any medicine, including vaccines. Depending on the vaccine, these can include: slight fever, rash, or soreness at the site of injection.
Slight discomfort is normal and should not be a cause for alarm. Your health care provider can give you additional information.
What to do if your child has a serious reaction.
If you think your child is experiencing a persistent or severe reaction, call your doctor or get the child to a doctor.
There are programs set up for children eligible for free vaccinations.
A federal program called Vaccines for Children provides free vaccines to eligible children, including those without health insurance coverage.
All those who are enrolled in Medicaid, American Indians and Alaskan Natives and those whose health insurance does not cover vaccines may go to Federally Qualified Health Clinics or Rural Health Centers.
More information is available.
General immunization questions can be answered by the CDC Contact Center at 1-800-CDC-INFO or (1-800-232-4636) for English and Español.

Trouba's winner keeps Jets undefeated under Mauriceby Patrick Williams
WINNIPEG -- The Winnipeg Jets are still perfect undefeated under new coach Paul Maurice.
Rookie defenseman Jacob Trouba scored his second goal of the game 1:10 into overtime to give Winnipeg a 3-2 win against the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday at MTS Centre. The win was the Jets' third in a row since Maurice replaced Claude Noel this past Sunday and pushed the Oilers' winless streak to four games.
The Jets used third-period goals from Trouba and fellow rookie Mark Scheifele to erase a 1-0 lead after Edmonton's Jordan Eberle had opened the scoring 6:59 into second period. But David Perron forced overtime when he scored with exactly two minutes remaining in regulation.
Early in overtime, Blake Wheeler's partial breakaway did not beat Edmonton goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov. But the U.S. Olympian grabbed the loose puck and fed Trouba in the slot, where he stuffed the puck into the net for the winner.
"I think we're just having fun and rolling with it," Trouba said. "Nobody really got down when [Edmonton scored]. We responded well, and I think everyone was pretty happy with how we played."
Bryzgalov made 36 saves for the Oilers (15-30-6); Ondrej Pavelec stopped 20 of 22 shots for the Jets (22-23-5).
After firing 24 shots at Bryzgalov through 40 minutes, the Jets finally solved him 5:48 into the third period on Trouba's sixth goal, which tied the game 1-1. Scheifele put the Jets up 4:49 later with his ninth goal and his first career home tally before Perron's 18th goal.
"I'm really pleased with the outcome, because the effort was really good," Maurice said. "The intensity was good. There was nothing easy about that for us."
The loss spoiled a strong effort from Bryzgalov, who held the Oilers in a game in which they were outshot 39-22. With one win in their past five games and a 2-6-2 mark in their past 10, the Oilers' defensive struggles had cost them dearly before they arrived in Winnipeg. The Oilers had allowed 14 goals in their past three games, the most recent of which was a 4-1 road loss Thursday against the Minnesota Wild.
"I thought [Bryzgalov] battled," Oilers coach Dallas Eakins said. "I thought he was in the fight there. He was holding his ground as Winnipeg tried coming to that crease and that's important. You need your goalie in there fighting like that, and I thought he was good."
With the Jets, Maurice has undertaken the task of repairing some of the defensive issues for a team that began the game ranked 22nd in the NHL with 2.94 goals allowed per game.
Since Maurice's arrival, Winnipeg has now allowed five goals in three games. Jets captain Andrew Ladd credited Maurice with changing the team's mindset.
"The whole group I don't think was the most confident group when he got here," Ladd said. "He has done a good job of building us up and letting us know we're good hockey players."
A tendency to allow opponents to dictate a game's style and a habit of straying from the game plan depending on the score had plagued the Jets long before Maurice arrived. The new coach has emphasized a strict adherence to the game plan.
"This is what I liked about this game," Maurice said. "We've got this building as a bit of a powder keg. If we can get a goal in the first five minutes, this building will rock the rest of the night. But what we didn't do in a 0-0 game or down one was open up our game or change."
Eberle put the Oilers up 1-0 after a hooking minor to Winnipeg's Eric O'Dell set up their third power play of the game early in the second period. The Oilers needed 15 seconds to crack the Winnipeg penalty kill when Ryan Nugent-Hopkins reached Eberle with a cross-ice pass through the bottom of the slot to the left circle that the wing snapped over Pavelec's left shoulder for his 16th goal at 6:59.
Before Trouba's first goal, Bryzgalov had sparkled during the second period, fending off 13 Winnipeg shots. That included two big in-close stops on Jets forward Dustin Byfuglien.
But with Jets defenseman Tobias Enstrom off for hooking early in the third period, Little broke through the Edmonton defense and cruised to the left circle before sending a pass across the slot that Trouba tipped past Bryzgalov. Trouba's goal was the ninth shorthanded goal the Oilers have allowed this season, the most in the NHL.
Scheifele's go-ahead goal came off another scramble at the edge of Bryzgalov's crease.
With the likes of Byfuglien hovering near Bryzgalov, Eakins admitted that the Oilers had difficulty contending with the Jets' size down low.
"The one thing that Winnipeg did excellently was that they went to the net and they went hard," Eakins said. "It looks like they're trying to take a page out of [the] Los Angeles [Kings], St. Louis [Blues], Anaheim [Ducks] and bully you at the front of the net."
The transition to such a game continues for the Oilers.
"We need to play a bigger game, a stronger game," Eakins said. "We're fine early. As the game wears on and the game gets harder and harder, we don't have the strength to quite sustain it for the full 60 minutes. As these players get more experience and grow, we'll be able to sustain it.
"The identity of the Edmonton Oilers for a long time has been all about skill and 1980s Oilers. The game's not played that way anymore. The game is played the hard way, and our players are slowly buying into it. They see what the top teams are doing, especially over in [the Western Conference].
"These are big, strong, simple teams, and they play extremely hard games. Once we begin to enjoy the hard parts of the games, we'll be much better. It's going to take time."
For Winnipeg, the adjustments continue as well. Maurice and his players have noticed a more upbeat feeling on the bench, regardless of the score. Instead, the Jets stuck to their game plan and remained confident that they would eventually prevail, something that Maurice has stressed.
"It's one thing if you're not creating anything or nothing is happening, but I thought we did a lot great job of creating," Ladd said. "I think when you're playing that way, it creates excitement on the bench and it's just a matter of time."

This image provided by Heritage Auctions shows an authentic 1913 Liberty Head nickel that was hidden in a Virginia closet for 41 years after its owners were mistakenly told it was a fake. The nickel is one of only five known and expected to sell for $2.5 million or more. Photo by: AP Photo/courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
Steve Szkotak/The Associated Press
January 29, 2013 8:06:50 AM
RICHMOND, Va. -- A humble 5-cent coin with a storied past is headed to auction and bidding expected to top $2 million a century after it was mysteriously minted.
The 1913 Liberty Head nickel is one of only five known to exist, but it's the coin's back story that adds to its cachet: It was surreptitiously and illegally cast, discovered in a car wreck that killed its owner, declared a fake, forgotten in a closet for decades and then found to be the real deal.
It all adds up to an expected sale of $2.5 million or more when it goes on the auction block this spring in suburban Chicago.
"Basically a coin with a story and a rarity will trump everything else," said Douglas Mudd, curator of the American Numismatic Association Money Museum in Colorado Springs, Colo., which has held the coin for most of the past 10 years. He expects it could fetch more than Heritage Auction's estimate, perhaps $4 million and even up to $5 million.
"A lot of this is ego," he said of collectors who could bid for it. "I have one of these and nobody else does."
The sellers who will split the money equally are four Virginia siblings who never let the coin slip from their hands, even when it was deemed a fake.
The nickel made its debut in a most unusual way. It was struck at the Philadelphia mint in late 1912, the final year of its issue, but with the year 1913 cast on its face -- the same year the beloved Buffalo Head nickel was introduced.
Mudd said a mint worker named Samuel W. Brown is suspected of producing the coin and altering the die to add the bogus date.
The coins' existence weren't known until Brown offered them for sale at the American Numismatic Association Convention in Chicago in 1920, beyond the statute of limitations. The five remained together under various owners until the set was broken up in 1942.
A North Carolina collector, George O. Walton, purchased one of the coins in the mid-1940s for a reported $3,750. The coin was with him when he was killed in a car crash on March 9, 1962, and it was found among hundreds of coins scattered at the crash site.
One of Walton's heirs, his sister Melva Givens of Salem, Va., was given the 1913 Liberty nickel after experts declared the coin a fake because of suspicions the date had been altered. The flaw probably happened because of Brown's imprecise work casting the planchet -- the copper and nickel blank disc used to create the coin.
"For whatever reason, she ended up with the coin," her daughter, Cheryl Myers, said.
Melva Givens put the coin in an envelope and stuck it in a closet, where it stayed for the next 30 years until her death in 1992.
Since its authentication, the Walton nickel has been on loan to the Colorado Springs museum and has been publicly exhibited nationwide.
The coin will be up for grabs April 25 at a rare coin and currency auction.

Bands Big And Small Finding New Business Models That Work
from the and-it-all-comes-together dept
The first is in the NY Times, and it talks about how big bands are embracing all kinds of new business models from having their music used in TV commercials to selling other related goods (beyond the typical t-shirts and CDs), such as branded drinks. The second article focuses on less well known bands, and how they're adopting all kinds of new business models that focus on getting fans to pay up. In fact, it mentions one band that appears to be using a close variation on the subscription fan club model we suggested years ago. What these two articles show, however, is that both big and small bands are learning there are all sorts of ways to make money in making music even if the music itself isn't where the money comes from. You provide the music to build up a fan base, which helps build up the value of lots of other things as well. It's nice to see more musicians recognizing this trend -- even if the RIAA continues to deny it.

Since 1999, I have been working with IBM-Rational tools, ClearQuest in particular. From the beginning, I liked using ClearQuest and was impressed with the power of the tool, but I was extremely dissatisfied with its notification functionality.
Eight years ago, I decided to fill the gap myself and created the first version of the Email Notification package. All these years, the package was made available for ClearQuest administrators at no charge, and I did my best in supporting and enhancing it.
If you found the EmailNotification package for IBM-Rational ClearQuest to be useful, and have installed or upgraded it in the last 18 months, could you agree to become a client reference in ANY of the following ways, please?
- - as an IBM internal reference only
- as a reference in proposals for new business with the solutions.
- to be willing to write an article for publication in professional journals.
- to be a "Customer success story" - (to be profiled in a sales/marketing that is deliverable to be published in hard copy or on Web sites that may be referenced in a speech or presentation)
- to be considered for advertising campaigns
If you have the authority to do it, and feel that it is a right thing to do, please contact me: pavel (at) cqadmin.com

OMAHA, Neb.—A gunman who died after a standoff with police at a Nebraska pharmacy admitted killing a Colorado man in 2011, authorities said Thursday.
The Nebraska State Patrol said 27-year-old Andres Gonzalez told negotiators during Tuesday's standoff that he killed Joshua Bullock, whose burned pickup truck was found by a rancher Dec. 14 near Chadron. The western Nebraska town is about 50 miles north of Alliance, where the pharmacy shootout took place.
Investigators believe Gonzalez killed the 38-year-old Denver man around Dec. 1 and left his body in a remote area of western Nebraska, though his remains haven't been found, State Patrol spokeswoman Deb Collins said in a statement.
Authorities arrested Gonzalez's girlfriend, 19-year-old Rose Siefke, of Hemingford, on a charge of being an accessory to a felony, according to the State Patrol's statement.
She was being held at the Box Butte County Jail, where officials couldn't provide any information including whether Siefke had an attorney. County Attorney K.J. Hutchinson said investigators believe Siefke helped conceal Bullock's death, but she had not been formally charged as of Thursday.
Authorities said Gonzalez tried to rob Thiele Pharmacy & Gifts early Tuesday, triggering a 14-hour standoff. Gonzalez died after a shootout with police. Earlier in the day, officers found his father dead at home.
Three police officers and the pharmacist were shot and wounded, and they remained hospitalized Thursday.
Patrol officials said investigators were trying Thursday to piece together the incidents surrounding Bullock's death and the shootout.
"Josh Bullock's disappearance was an active case, but we had little information to go on," Lt. Monica Bartling said. "Our investigation will now focus on finding Josh's remains and bringing some closure to his family and friends."
Bullock had ties to Chadron and Alliance, and he was last seen in Alliance after visiting family on Dec. 1.
Autopsies were conducted Thursday on Andres Gonzalez and his father, Larry Gonzalez. Hutchinson said it was too early to say how either man died.
The two officers and pharmacist wounded in the standoff were in stable condition Thursday, Box Butte General Hospital spokeswoman Bonnie Wallace said.
In Alliance, a city of about 8,600 people, restrictions had been lifted on access to downtown. Cheryl Moser, who manages the Dollar General store down the block from the pharmacy, said her customers were returning Thursday, and some people seemed to be looking for bullet holes near the shooting scene.
"Everybody's curious if they weren't down here," she said.

Treadwell leads Akron past Northern Illinois 62-54
AKRON, Ohio (AP) Demetrius Treadwell scored 25 points, on 9-of-12 shooting, and pulled down 10 rebounds as Akron took over sole possession of first place of the Mid-American Conference's East Division with a 62-54 win over Northern Illinois on Saturday night.
Akron (17-8, 9-3 Mid-American) came into the game tied with Buffalo (14-8, 8-4), who lost to Ohio, 73-70, earlier in the day.
Jordan Threloff made four straight free throw to pull Northern Illinois (11-13, 5-7) within four with about 7 1/2 minutes left before the Zips used a 6-0 run to extend their lead to 55-45 with 3:18 to play.
NIU's Darrell Bowie hit 1 of 2 from the stripe to make it 60-54 with 69 seconds left, but the Huskies wouldn't score again.
Threloff paced Northern Illinois, which shot 35 percent and made just 12 of 21 free throws, with 14 points. Aaric Armstead added 13 and Travon Baker 10.

select tag has 2 options : 1 - Name Only. 2 - Name And Family.
when Name Only is selected display of Div1 is none !. and when Name And Family is selected display of Div1 is block. I have a JavaScript function for hide and display Div1 :
function showDiv(select)
if (select.selectedIndex == 0) document.getElementById('Div1').style.display = 'none';

I want when pressed button : <
If I have some form control like textbox and I want the event handler to be located in the html instead of at the server side, how to do that? Of course I can copy paste javascript code in the aspx file. But is it possible to do that using some object oriented approach (ie programmatically in the code behind)?
I thought I heard we would be able to get the value of an asp:textbox by id with javascript in the .net 4 framework? was I mistaken? if not does anyone know the syntax?

How can i split with java script.plz help in this issue
I have an HTML
 container that I float to the right of a gridview. When the browser window is maximized, it looks fine. When minimized, the gridview positions below the floating container and most of the data is pushed off the bottom of the browser - you have to scroll down to see it.
If I position the floating container above the gridview it looks fine in a minimized window, but looks real bad when maximized.
What I want to do is use a javascript: onresize event to re-position the floating container up or down depending on the window.inner.width AND do it with a Master/Content page structure AND do it for only the one page where needed.
I can capture the onresize event and display the window dimensions but haven't figured-out how to do it with a Content page that still uses the Master page. I think I'm having a very "thick" week...

The ASP.NET advanced templated controls, such as the DataList and DataGrid, are perfect for many data representation situations. However, when you need the flexibility to render a variety of layouts, the Repeater control is what you need. In this article the author builds a full-featured blog application to illustrate the use of the Repeater and DataList controls that render nested data in a master-detail relationship. He then discusses how to override the default implementations of these controls by adding some client-side JavaScript code that makes the blog more responsive and enhances its usability.

Abusing STAT
Lytes, BUN, Cr, Glucose – STAT
Trial clear fluids – STAT
Stool samples for C&S – STAT (But…but… she hasn't made a doody yet!)
AM blood work – STAT (umm – that's in 7 hours from now. I'm confused.)
Even when he's asking for some mundane piece of equipment (ex: 10 cc NS flush), he will add STAT to his command. Granted that his ubiquitous and unnecessary use of the word stat makes me chuckle without fail, but I really want to tell him that he's in the ER – everything is stat! However, I'll hold off for a bit just to see what other not so stat orders get the stat treatment from him.

Such a waste of time and resources.
I NEVER use the word, unless it's absolutely urgent. That way it gets done, because people know I don't abuse it.
This bozo sounds like the boy who cried wolf.

It would be really hard for me to hold my tongue.
New GI res: Do you have a pen?
Me: Do you need it stat?
Someone should tell him though.

Yes, and STAT labs cost more money. I am surprised no one has outed this Doc yet for his statiness.

Breakfast on Saturday, STAT!

muahah i like the comment about the pen..hehe sounds like something smart ass i would say. Yea sounds like he abuses that word. Glad i don't have any in my work that does that

I find the best response to stupid Stat orders is to call the resident with the results as they arrive. Now if your hospital is like mine we do tend to get results one bit at a time so usually the offending party gets the hint after the third or forth phone call.

- One Nurse said...
New Resident + unecessary STAT orders = HUGE EGO
Not to mention he is not making any friends in the nursing department!!!
- August 26, 2009 at 3:31 AM
Or how about when you actually need a STAT order and the doc doesn't make it STAT? And when you ask them to reorder it as a STAT, they say you can just write on the requisition form that it's STAT. And then only to have the labs call you and say they can't process STAT orders unless it was originally ordered STAT? Arg.... I need a drink, STAT!

I remember when I admitted patients to the medicine service from the ED, none of the orders got done after we saw the patient -- STAT or not STAT (though I tried both). Seems the ED nurses felt the orders were the floor nurse's job, and the floor nurses felt the orders were the ED nurse's job. Both got their nose out of joint over the lack of the other person's work, and nothing would get done.
Imagine my delight when I walked into my patient's room at 4PM after an 8AM admission only to find him seizing because he hadn't gotten his serax for his florid alcohol withdrawal.
Yeah. Stupid f-ing residents.
- September 5, 2009 at 1:46 AM
- Maha said...
OMDG - That's clearly a fail on the part of the nurses in both the ED and the floor. From my point of view, sometimes I can't get admission orders started in the ED because we don't carry some of the medications in stock and have to wait until the morning when the pharmacy can deliver them to us. There might also be delays in getting blood work done because I'm juggling new patients as well as admitted patients.
As far as orders that are stricly for patients who will stay in emerge, I don't think its necessary to write stat next to every single order.

Chasing Ice
- Library Hall
Chasing Ice is the story of one man's mission to change the tide of history by gathering undeniable evidence of climate change. Using time-lapse cameras, his videos compress years into seconds and capture ancient mountains of ice in motion as they disappear at a breathtaking rate.
WINNER! More than 30 awards at film festivals around the world, including the Excellence in Cinematography Award at Sundance, the Audience Award at Hot Docs and The Environmental Media Association's 22nd Annual Best Documentary Award.
"You've never seen images like this before… It deserves to be seen and felt on the big screen." - Robert Redford
"Stunning…Timely…A solitary quest with global implications." [A Critics' Pick] - Neil Genzlinger, The New York Times
"Visually breathtaking." - Justin Chang, Variety
"The smoking gun on climate change." - Robert F Kennedy Jr.
"The Climate Change debate is over." - Greg Reitman, Huffington Post
About the film
In the spring of 2005, acclaimed environmental photographer James Balog headed to the Arctic on a tricky assignment for National Geographic: to capture images to help tell the story of the Earth's changing climate. Even with a scientific upbringing, Balog had been a skeptic about climate change. But that first trip north opened his eyes to the biggest story in human history and sparked a challenge within him that would put his career and his very well-being at risk.
Chasing Ice is the story of one man's mission to change the tide of history by gathering undeniable evidence of our changing planet. Within months of that first trip to Iceland, the photographer conceived the boldest expedition of his life: The Extreme Ice Survey. With a band of young adventurers in tow, Balog began deploying revolutionary time-lapse cameras across the brutal Arctic to capture a multi-year record of the world's changing glaciers.
As the debate polarizes America and the intensity of natural disasters ramps up globally, Balog finds himself at the end of his tether. Battling untested technology in subzero conditions, he comes face to face with his own mortality. It takes years for Balog to see the fruits of his labor. His hauntingly beautiful videos compress years into seconds and capture ancient mountains of ice in motion as they disappear at a breathtaking rate. Chasing Ice depicts a photographer trying to deliver evidence and hope to our carbon-powered planet.
Run time: 75 min.
James Balog's book
James Balog's stunning coffee table book ICE: Portraits of Vanishing Glaciers is in the Bud Werner Memorial Library collection and available for check out. It will be on display during the film screening.

Velvet-Trimmed Pixie Coat
Added Jan 21, 2013
Washington, Wash...
After the last coat I made, affectionately dubbed the bohemian roadkill coat (http://rebeccadelaney.net/2012/11/penny-lane-inspired-preemptively-retired/), I was kind of traumatized. I just wanted a coat I could wear without, you know, looking like I would sell you sex and/or heroin. I needed a new start. McCall's 6442 to the rescue.
More on my blog! — http://rebeccadelaney.net/2013/01/to-do-decide-which-ball-to-attend/
Material Notes
Delicious coating fabric (wool/angora melton) made sweet sweet loving' with silk/wool challis lining, a layer of nylon-and-flannel interlining, and silk/rayon velvet trim, and the four of them made a baby. And that baby is this coat. And that baby has four parents, so it's probably going to need therapy, and it's time to stop with this because now even I'm disturbed.

I most frequent hear from your average Dick and Jane, (or Dick and Dick, or Jane and Jane) who want to spice up their sex life. When they write to me they inevitably describe the kind of sex they're currently having. And almost universally that description makes this grown man cry. Jeez, the boredom. How can they stand it? It's a wonder any of them are having sex at all.
What's with all the humdrum, run of the mill, we've always done it that way mentality? Are ya'll afraid that if you add a little something new to your sex chore from time to time that the sky will fall? Holy cow!
Today's tutorial is yet another attempt to motivate you to get off your butts and make something interesting happen in the sex department. We'll begin today with what was once called foreplay.
First off, I hate the word "foreplay" because it suggests that all the really great sex play activities out there are only a lead up to a single — more important activity — that is fucking. It also implies that ya'll can dispense with the one in order to hurry up and get to the other. And that, sex fans, is always a huge mistake.
From now on I want you to banish "foreplay" from your vocabulary. Instead let's start using "Beginning Sex Play." It says it all. It says it's at the beginning, but there's no suggestion that anything in particular must follow.
I'm of the mind that we'd all be better served if we thought of sex play as a continuum of pleasure with a beginning, middle and an end. If you ask me, our sex play ought mirror our sexual response cycles — arousal, plateau, orgasm and resolution. That way we're less likely to overburden one particular activity at the expense of all the others. Get it? Got it? Good!
Experienced sex fans agree; the best sexual encounters include an extended period of sensual play at the beginning of most all sex play. This brings increased pleasure to both partners, and will make whatever else that might follow more satisfying. Just remember, beginning sex play can be a meal in itself.
Beginning sex play brings spice to the encounter because it gets our motors started. Even all you major sex athletes out there, who are perpetually primed for sex, will benefit from more beginning sex play. It will help cool your jets and make the encounter last longer than a firecracker. And I know that you know what I mean!
In our hectic rush-around-world, beginning sex play is particularly important. It helps us transition from the daily cares and woes to the realm of sensual pleasures. The workaholics among us need more time to become fully aroused. Our minds are still filled with the junk of the day, and not yet ready to give or receive pleasure. And pleasuring and being pleasured, I might add, takes a big attitude shift from that of the rest of the day. In fact, if you're gonna try and approach sex and pleasure with the same mindset as you have on the job or with the kids, give it up now and be done with it. You'll only walk away from the encounter disappointed.
Beginning sex play primes us for maximum pleasure. Us men folk will have the time we need to come to full erection and the women folk will have the time they need to properly lubricate. (By the way, this is called the arousal stage in our sexual response cycle).
When we stop thinking of beginning sex play as "foreplay" we realize there is no such thing as spending too much time giving and getting pleasure. If beginning sex play evolves into full-on fucking — SWELL. Both partners will be fully aroused and fucking will flow naturally and effortlessly from the pleasure enjoyed at the beginning of sex play.
Beginning sex play can include everything from chocolate and whipped cream to whips and chains. But let's not get too far ahead of our selves. Let's start at the beginning of beginning sex play, shall we?
Most people miss out on the pleasure of undressing with and for their partners. Stripping out of, or being helped out of our daily wear and into something sexy or nothing at all can be very arousing. It's also a visual signal that we're shifting out of our work-a-day world and entering the realm of sensuality. Stripping is an art form, ya know. We could all learn a lesson or two from the folks who do this for a living, but more about this in THIS tutorial.
Creating the right sex environment is important too. Make sure the room is warm. Proper lighting and music will surely add to the mood. Scents are also important. More and more people are incorporating erotica into their sex play — reading a sexy story together or enjoying some hot porn will make the encounter memorable.
Most women complain that their partners don't kiss long enough and rush the kissing to get at their pussy. Guys, what the fuck? You want pussy? Use your mouth to maximum advantage kiss and nibble all over everything. Literally devour your partner with your mouth. Believe me, if you do this right, by the time you get to her pussy she's gonna want to give it up big time.
Beginning sex play is the perfect time for setting the mood for all that might follow. It's a time for sharing fantasies, role-playing, dirty talk or some full body massage. Always have some nice lotion available then use your hands, forearms, feet and elbows to knead your partner's muscles and naughty bits.
Certain areas on the body are more hot-wired than others. It's your job to find each and every one your partner has. As you massage vary your strokes and touch to stimulate your partner. Roll your fingertips across his or her nipples and behind his or her ears as you kiss him and tease her with your tongue.
If you're doin things right, your partner will be moaning with pleasure. If she or he starts getting impatient it's time to bring out the restraints. There's nothing like some hot erotic bondage to punctuate the beginning sex play.
While your darling is subdued and possibly blindfolded, crank things up a notch. Add different sensations and stimuli, a warm chocolate sauce followed by ice cream. A fur mitt followed by a Loofah. Introduce some sex toys — a vibrator, tit clamps, or an anal simulator.
Don't forget to check in with your partner from time to time. Ask for some feedback and direction. Do you like this? Or do you like this better? If you presume that you know what your partner likes simply because he or she liked it before, that, my friend, is a recipe for boredom and the dreaded bed death. If words fail you, SHOW your partner what you want. Then encourage your partner to do the same.
Beginning sex play is not about pressing the right buttons in the right order. It is about understanding what makes your partner tick and supplying and applying those things to their greatest sensual advantage. There are many ways to give your partner extreme pleasure, and it all begins in your brain. Beginning sex play is as much of an art form as it is a necessity. Finally, the basic premise behind all of this is that the great lover is one that gives pleasure because it is its own reward, not a means to getting something else.
Good luck

Wonderful World of Animation Art Gallery
9517 Culver Blvd.
Culver City, CA 90232
The Old Army Game (1943)
Production drawing of Pete.
This set of two drawings includes the rough and the clean up version of the same frame.
Wonderful World of Animation is honored that the Basmajian family has selected us as the exclusive gallery to represent their collection.
We all have the Basmajian family to thank for introducing the world to the joy of collecting animation art. In 1984, Disney animator John Basmajian teamed up with Christie's to launch the first ever animation art auction. Despite a court case brought by Disney days before the auction, the judge ruled that the art was rightfully John's and that he was allowed to sell it.
Thanks to John's vision to rescue these treasures and the courage to stand up for what he believed in, a new collectable was born. The auction was a huge success and made national news.
If you would like to watch videos about the news reports on the auction or see John assembling the mats used for the framed pieces available,
click here.
If you would like to read more about the court case, please
click here.
Piece exhibits slightly more than normal handling. In the rough, there is wear and slight paper loss along the left hand corners. There is a small ink stain on both drawings in the lower right corner as well as a fold down the center of both drawings.
The size of this piece is 12 Field (11"x13")

When one speaks of the greatest Captains of all time Imran Khans name definitely comes up amongst the top five.
He is probably the best ever Captain Pakistan produced and ranks very high amongst the Asian Cricket Leaders as well.
We all know he was an all-rounder par excellence and Captain of the highest Class.
But in addition to the aforementioned abilities and skills he had one more quality which very few Cricketers can match him. A Master speaker.
This thread is meant to relive some of his great speeches and one informal session with Indian Youth.

Normally in our "Caption this Photo" series we just fire up a provoking picture, drop-in a photo credit, and let you the readers haver your way with it in the comments section; but for today's photo, I thought our selection deserved a little background story, since not everyone is familiar with what Chip Yates and the SWIGZ.com Pro Racing team has been up to this past year.
Having a day of testing in the desert outside of Victorville, California, the SWIGZ crew have been practicing with Larry Kleinschmidt to hone Chip's dirt-riding skills, as the team is set to compete in the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb later this year. Yates is an accomplished road racer, but his dirt racing experience stems from four-wheeled endeavors, not two — hence the coaching from Kleinschmidt to help tackle the 2.6 miles of dirt road that still remain on the Pikes Peak course.
