text: I've been waiting for this week forever it seems. Too much work and too little play has made Jack a dull boy indeed! My vapid plan was to leave early Sunday morning at daylight and make haste to El Paso by way of I-10, with intentions of continuing to Tombstone, Arizona and thereabouts. Having been inspired by Dave 6253's outstanding ride report here on ADVRider, I want to explore the area, including the remote and somewhat dangerous border roads along the Mexican border. I'd just gotten a new set of panniers for the bike, and was anxious to get them on the road and full of too much gear. Unfortunately, I ran out of time Saturday and wasn't able to get my camping gear packed in time, so it will be rough... a hot shower and hotel bed every night. So sad I woke up at 5:50 am, looked around, and then promptly fell back asleep. It was a rough night of wrestling with some bad fajitas... I eventually did get up, fed the cows, milked the chickens and finally got the last of the gear on board. The morning was foggy and cool, and by the time the bike was warmed up, the clouds were clearing and the air was brisk. It was gonna be a gorgeous day! The ride in to Kerrville was chilly, but free of any dangerous encounters with deer or the dreaded BlueHairs. I fear them more than anything and Kerrville is the epicenter of Buicks and bluehairs. Consider it Blue Hair Nation. Trust me. At any rate, after gassing at the Shell, I was on the road at 9:30 and throttle pegged for El Paso. The rush of excitement hit squarely as the bike hit 80 and the sign for "El Paso 491 miles" flew by. I knew it was gonna be a long day After settling in for a while at 80, I was passed by a beautiful, black, Aston Martin doing about 110 or so. James Bond musta had a hot date... There was a strong headwind and the new GSA cases had more noticeable drag than my older system cases, and it took a while getting used to the new sensitivity - the wind definitely moves the bike a bit more. The great thing about 10 West is that posted speed limit is 80, but by the time I hit Junction, I could tell the bike was sucking gas more than usual. With the head wind, drag and 5000 rpm to maintain 83-ish, I was nearly empty by the time I hit Sonora... yikes! My mileage had dropped to 32 mpg from the usual 42 or so. Isn't this terribly interesting? Even more excitement - gassing up in Sonora I filled up the so-called "7/11" there and tho it seems to be an actual 7/11, I'm not so sure it isn't a cheap Chinese knock off... that was the dirtiest version I've ever seen. At any rate, that didn't stop me from having a classic road trip breakfast. Coffee and hot dog warming on Beemer cylinder heads... yuuuuuumaaay! From Junction, the terrain slowly changes from the green, cedar covered hills to the larger vistas and plateaus past Sonora. I hear folks complain about the flatness of west Texas, but I'm not sure why. Sure, the highway meanders through the flat valleys, but the hills and plateaus around are beautiful there are great vistas most of the way. By the time Ozona slid past, the temps were beginning to warm up a bit from the sun, and as I reached the giant windfarms out near Iraan, I could tell it was about time to shed the cold weather gloves and remove the liner from my jacket. I was eyeing my shrinking fuel supply, and as I neared Ft. Stockton, I knew it would be close... about 18 miles out, the last bar on the display disappeared and the fuel light came on. At 60, I can get about 20 or so miles after the light appears, but I wasn't sure I'd make it. I carry a couple of fuel cells for emergencies, but I didn't want the bike to die on the freeway. Finally, the first exit came up and I pulled into the Exxon. Woohoo! I did my routine of gloves off, helmet off, earplugs out, jacket off so I could take the liner out, unsnap the tankbag and lay it back, unlock the cap, dig out the wallet, slide in the credit card, debit? NO, authorizing..., insert fuel nozzle and select fuel type, premium... SEE ATTENDANT. Aaargh. Go inside to hear that "all the pumps are down and we don't know why". Crapola. Reverse the routine, get the bike back on the highway and hope it doesn't die before the next exit. After fueling at the next station and people watching for a bit, it was back on 10. It's been a long time since I've been west of Ft. Stockton and the mountains and hills of Balmorrhea looked enticing, but no joy since I still had hours to go. At the merge of I-10 and I-20, the traffic picked up substantially as did the 18 wheelers, and the temperature in the area dropped about 10 degrees. I was wishing I'd left my jacket liner in Settled in to my rythmic boredom of 85, I saw a white car coming up fast behind me. I tried to determine if it was local law enforcement, but in my buzzing mirrors I could only tell it was white. As it went past, at least 10 mph faster than me, I was shocked to see that it was one of those tiny "SMART" cars. I couldn't believe it. I had no idea they could go that fast! I was tempted to stay with it, but chuckled instead... it was funny seeing such a tiny car going that fast. Here's the screaming little Smart car : Strangely enough, not too long after this, I saw both Elvis and Michael Jackson. The rumors are true!!! They're both alive and well, tho Elvis has gained a ton of weight. They both had Big Gulps and were riding in a Kia... probably not to attract attention. Van Horn was next up, and I swung through the town before gassing up. The lady clerk at the gas station wished me a Happy Thanksgiving and told me to be "extra careful on that bike". I promised I would and took off yet again, but excited because El Paso was my next stop. It was the nirvana I sought, the unreachable goal, the never-ending journey, the end of a long, windy day. Was it really only 116 miles away???? As I entered the stream of trucks going west, I noticed the bike had more engine vibes than normal. Hmmm. Acceleration was groggy and the power didn't seem to be there like it usually is. I pulled off and checked the vacuum hoses on the injection side but found nothing. Eventually it cleared up and the power came back. Woohoo! To the south, the mountain ranges in Mexico were visible in the blue haze and the slowly sinking sun. On the eastbound side of I-10, there was a large Border Patrol Checkpoint, and it appeared that all traffic on 10 has to go through. Wild! As the range of mountains by El Paso began to appear, I could see large fires to the south, the blue smoke drifting eastward across the valley. I couldn't tell if they were on the Mexican side or the U.S. side, but there were several, spaced miles apart along the river valley. I rolled into El Paso as the sun came close to the horizon, the smoke and pollution dense and blue in Cuidad Juarez, and the familiar smokestacks lit by the setting sun. I had planned on going on to Las Cruces, but after 8 hrs of buffeting on the bike I decided to gas up, buy a map of New Mexico and find a place for the night. As I passed the Best Western, I saw a lone 1200GS in the lot and wondered which way he was headed. Grabbed a room at the EconoLodge, where the clerk told me I could park the bike next to the office window (cool!) Finished the day with a great steak at the nearby Texas Roadhouse. My apologies for the lack of interesting stories and photos, but today was for making miles. We'll see what tomorrow brings! Adios Amigos

CINCINNATI – Junior center Adnan Hodzic scored his 1,000th career point Saturday against No. 25 Cincinnati but the Bearcats proved too versatile dropping the Bisons 80-52
Lipscomb's defense silenced the Cincinnati offense to start the contest holding the Bearcats without a field goal for nearly six and a half minutes. Lipscomb wasn't able to build a large advantage, but held an 8-2 lead off two 3-pointers by Brian Wright when Dion Dixon made Cincinnati's first basket.
The Bisons maintained control as Hodzic connected on two layups and Jordan Burgason hit a trey to take a 17-12 lead at the 10:15 mark.
Cincinnati's Lance Stephens caught fire scoring 11 points during a 21-4 run that gave the No. 25-ranked Bearcats control of the game.
Lipscomb missed 15 of their final 18 field goal attempts in the first period to go into the locker room down 35-24.
The Bisons didn't start the second period on a better foot missing their first six shots to fall behind by 18 points with 16:22 left.
Hodzic was the sole offensive threat for the Bisons for the better part of the second half. He scored eight of Lipscomb's ten points to start the period culminating with his 1,000th point with 13:08 left.
Hodzic was the only Bison to score in double figures finishing with 18 points. It was his 37th consecutive game to score in double figures, the longest active streak in the nation.
Hodzic is the 40th Lipscomb player to score 1,000 points and fourth since the Bisons joined the NCAA. Hodzic reached the total in 71 games for a career average of 14.1 points per game.
Cincinnati's Rashad Bishop and Deonta Vaughn hit threes on consecutive possessions to give the Bearcats a 23-point lead, 59-36, with 11:16 left.
Lipscomb was unable to close the deficit. The Bisons entered the game averaging 85.2 points per game – the seventh best mark in the nation. Lipscomb's 52 points was their lowest since posting only 50 points at Samford on Nov. 24, 2008.
Cincinnati shot 62.1 percent in the second half outscoring Lipscomb 45-28. They finished 31-of-57 for 54.4 percent for the game and 10-of-26 from the 3-point line for 38.5 percent.
Lipscomb shot 20-of-69 from the field for 29.0 percent and was 6-of-26 from downtown for 23.1 percent.
Cincinnati held a 40-36 advantage on the boards. Michael Teller and Hodzic led Lipscomb with six rebounds each. Ibrahima Thomas paced Cincinnati with six boards.
Lance Stephenson led five Bearcats in double figures with 19 points. Cincinnati had 34 bench points led by Dixon with 15.
The Bisons will spend Sunday on the road as they travel to Tucson for their game against Arizona Monday evening at 8 p.m. CST.

Most of us are able to integrate all of the sensory information that we constantly face, paying attention to and tolerating important sensory information and disregarding information that is less important at that moment. For individuals with AUTISM, however, this is not the case. Many people with autism have difficulties processing information taken in through senses. We are here to help you put the pieces together by providing you with the tools, information, and affordable sensory products to assure your autistic child will reach their full potential.
Autism is a complex neurobehavioral condition that includes impairments in social interaction and developmental language and communication skills combined with rigid, repetitive behaviors. Because of the range of symptoms, this condition is now called autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It covers a large spectrum of symptoms, skills, and levels of impairment. ASD ranges in severity from a handicap that somewhat limits an otherwise normal life to a devastating disability that may require institutional care.
Children with autism have trouble communicating. They have trouble understanding what other people think and feel. This makes it very hard for them to express themselves either with words or through gestures, facial expressions, and touch.
A child with ASD who is very sensitive may be greatly troubled -- sometimes even pained -- by sounds, touches, smells, or sights that seem normal to others.
Children with autism may have repetitive, stereotyped body movements such as rocking, pacing, or hand flapping. They may have unusual responses to people, attachments to objects, resistance to change in their routines, or aggressive or self-injurious behavior. At times they may seem not to notice people, objects, or activities in their surroundings. Some children with autism may also develop seizures. And in some cases, those seizures may not occur until adolescence.
Some people with autism are cognitively impaired to a degree. In contrast to more typical cognitive impairment, which is characterized by relatively even delays in all areas of development, people with autism show uneven skill development. They may have problems in certain areas, especially the ability to communicate and relate to others. But they may have unusually developed skills in other areas, such as drawing, creating music, solving math problems, or memorizing facts. For this reason, they may test higher -- perhaps even in the average or above-average range -- on nonverbal intelligence tests.
Symptoms of autism typically appears during the first three years of life. Some children show signs from birth. Others seem to develop normally at first, only to slip suddenly into symptoms when they are 18 to 36 months old. However, it is now recognized that some individuals may not show symptoms of a communication disorder until demands of the environment exceed their capabilities. Autism is four times more common in boys than in girls. It knows no racial, ethnic, or social boundaries. Family income, lifestyle, or educational levels do not affect a child's chance of being autistic.

Masa of Echo Park has been around for about five years, but I'd never made it there until now. The owners are from Chicago and they specialize in Chicago style deep dish pizza. Now, I must admit that I've never been a huge fan of Chicago style pizza nor have I had one in Chicago. In fact, I've only been to Chicago a few time, and when there, I tend to concentrate on hot dogs and Italian beef. Most Chicago-style pizzas I've had in other places are just too doughy for me.
The first thing to know about Masa is that the deep dish pizza takes 40 minutes to bake. Next time I go, I'll call ahead, but otherwise, get some appetizers. I especially enjoyed the artichoke dip which was thick with artichokes, and a nice acid in it and was less cheese-heavy than some versions.
The pizza itself was big and dense. Deep dish pizza must way more per pound than any other food. A single slice of the large pie was sufficient for most people in our group. We ordered the traditional pie which has mushrooms and a nice, well spiced sausage slice on top. The sauce is tangy and packs a big garlic wallop. The crust is crunchy, glistening with oil, though I still feel like it's a lot of bread in there, but at least it was all well cooked.
If there are any Chicago-ites or deep dish lovers out there who've been to Masa, I'd love to hear how it compares to the real thing. For my part, I liked it and will likely head back. They have a large menu beyond the deep dish, including regular pizzas, pasta, other entrees and a particularly enticing sounding croissant bread pudding, which I will undoubtedly need to try.

SANFORD, Fla. — Nearly two dozen potential jurors interviewed individually by prosecutors and George Zimmerman's (pictured) defense attorneys during the past week have been told to return to a Florida courthouse next week for further questioning.
RELATED: NewsOne's Trayvon Martin Coverage
Judge Debra Nelson told the 23 jury candidates on Friday, the fifth day of jury selection, to return next Tuesday. She asked them not to discuss the case or selection process with anyone.
Zimmerman is pleading not guilty to second-degree murder, claiming he shot an unarmed Trayvon Martin in self-defense last year.
Attorneys need to find six jurors and four alternates.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
The six jurors and four alternates who eventually will decide whether George Zimmerman committed murder when he fatally shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin will have limited contact with the outside world during the two weeks to a month it will take to hold the trial.
Circuit Judge Debra Nelson said for the first time Thursday that jurors picked for Zimmerman's second-degree murder trial will be sequestered. They will have limited contact with their families, they will spend the night at a hotel and their actions will be monitored by court security outside the courtroom during the duration of the trial. Prosecutors and defense attorneys resume their fifth day of jury selection Friday.
"You would not be able to participate in day-to-day routine activities," defense attorney Don West told one potential juror.
Some potential jurors have been wary of the prospect of being cut off from the world during the trial.
Jury candidate K-80, a middle-aged White woman, described sequestration Thursday as "my biggest fear." Jurors are only referred to by their jury numbers in court to protect their identities.
Juror E-81, a middle-aged White woman, said when she saw the word "sequester" on the questionnaire in the jury room, "the walls caved in."
"I want to sleep in my own bed," she said. The potential juror also worried about her safety if picked, saying "I'm going to walk out of here with a bulls-eye on me."
The jury candidate appeared to already have made up her mind about the case, decreasing her chances of being picked. Her impression was that Martin's prior use of marijuana and an image of a gun found on his cell phone were indications that "he was going down the wrong path." She also said she believed Zimmerman was just "looking after his neighborhood."
"I believe every American has a right to defend himself," said Juror E-81. "I think the more people armed, the better."
Potential juror B-67, a Hispanic female in her 40s, was allowed to leave courtroom without being questioned by defense attorneys after she said being sequestered would be a hardship with her family and school commitments.
Zimmerman, a 29-year-old former neighborhood watch volunteer, is pleading not guilty to second-degree murder, claiming he shot an unarmed Martin in self-defense. A 44-day delay in Zimmerman's arrest led to protests around the nation. They questioned whether the Sanford Police Department was investigating the case seriously since Martin was a Black teen from the Miami area. Zimmerman identifies himself as Hispanic.
Attorneys need to find six jurors and four alternates. In Florida, 12 jurors are required only for criminal trials involving capital cases, when the death penalty is being considered.

It's become conventional wisdom this election season that Mitt Romney can't attract the women's vote. But there is one group of women who plan to vote en masse for Mitt in November: affluent women.
According to a new poll from the American Affluence Research Center, half of women who belong to households worth more than $800,000 plan to vote for Romney in November. That compares with only 36 percent of affluent women who plan to vote for Obama.

Google's Motorola Marriage to Come With Big Patent Dowry
Aug 15, 2011 11:57 AM PT
Google announced Monday it intends to purchase Motorola Mobility for US$12.5 billion, pursuant to regulatory approval.
That price is a premium of 63 percent over the closing price of Motorola Mobility shares on Friday.
The deal was unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies.
The news sent Motorola Mobility stock prices soaring over 55 percent by the afternoon.
Both Google and Motorola Mobility declined to provide the E-Commerce Times with further comment.
About the Google Bid
The acquisition of Motorola Mobility will let Google supercharge the Android ecosystem and enhance competition in mobile computing, Google told investors.
Google will run Motorola Mobility as a separate business, Motorola Mobility will remain a licensee of Android, and Android will remain open, Google stated.
Google's announcement was accompanied by statements of support from other major Android hardware device makers -- Samsung, Sony Ericsson, HTC and LG Electronics.
"What I heard on the analysts' call was that all Android's top five vendor partners outside Motorola are happy about this," Ramon Llamas, a senior research analyst at IDC, told the E-Commerce Times. "But if I were one of those guys, I'd look at someone else as well, maybe Windows Phone 7 or webOS."
The deal is subject to regulatory and shareholder approval. It's expected to close by the end of 2011 or early 2012.
The Backdrop to the Deal
Google's bid for Motorola Mobility is widely seen as a bid to acquire patents in order to protect its business.
Google CEO Larry Page referred pointedly to patent lawsuits filed against Android by Microsoft, Apple and others and said the acquisition of Motorola will strengthen Google's patent portfolio.
Microsoft has several Android device makers paying it royalties, and it's suing Motorola and Barnes & Noble over patents it claims to hold on Android technologies. In fact, Android royalty payments are reportedly a cash cow for Redmond.
Oracle, too, has filed suit against Google over Android, while digital security solutions firm Gemalto is going after Google in court.
Apple's suing HTC and Samsung for allegedly infringing on its product patents, and it's obtained an injunction blocking shipments of Samsung Galaxy Tabs across Europe.
"The Android ecosystem is under pressure from an IP perspective," Brian Marshall, an analyst at Gleacher, told the E-Commerce Times.
Android's an Easy Target
Google lacks a strong patent defense, Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle group, previously told the E-Commerce Times.
Google did try earlier this year to buy patents from bankrupt Canadian telecommunications company Nortel, but lost out to a consortium that included arch-rivals Apple and Microsoft.
That led David Drummond, the Internet giant's chief legal officer, to accuse Microsoft, Oracle, Apple and other companies of running a hostile organized campaign against Android through the use of "bogus" patents.
The bid for Motorola Mobility may tilt the playing field a little more in Google's favor.
"This [bid for Motorola Mobility] is a patent play," IDC's Llamas told the E-Commerce Times. "Look at how Google got shut out of the Nortel auction and the way they're hit by lawsuits from Microsoft and Apple."
Motorola has 17,000 patents now and another 7,500 patents pending, Llamas said.
With the purchase, Google "may be hoping to beef up its patent portfolio to cross-license with Microsoft, Apple, Oracle and other players," Gleacher's Marshall said. "This is clearly a defensive play on Google's part."
However, the purchase of Motorola Mobility "isn't going to change the dynamics of the handset space," Marshall asserted.
You Can Buy Your Way Into Trouble
Google's attempt to escape from the sandpit of patent suits over Android may land it in another quagmire instead.
"If Google takes the patents and shuts down the Motorola hardware business, that will damage relationships with the other licensees, much like IBM did with OS/2," Enderle pointed out.
"It's going to be generally good news for Microsoft, which is in the licensing business, because these [other Android] hardware manufacturers are going to be nervous," he added.
"The smart move would be to shut down Motorola Mobility and just go with the patents, but Google has to learn everything the hard way, and I'm going to go with tradition here and say they're going to make the mistake," Enderle said.

Chair Korman will call the meeting to order.
Proposed Action – None
Chair Korman will seek approval of the minutes from the October 16, 2012 meeting.
Proposed Action – Approval
Chair Korman will offer opportunity for open comments concerning items on this agenda.
The Accountability Report is the Board of Governors' (BOG) approach to system-wide performance tracking for each university's commitment to greater accountability and measuring outcomes. The BOG has implemented a comprehensive planning and accountability framework designed to maximize system capacity, and to meet state economic development needs through education as well as research and development. With initial steps achieved in 2009, multi-year university work plans and the BOG's Annual Accountability Reports now reflect each institution's unique mission and core strengths. These work plans were presented for the first time at the BOG's planning session in June 2010. In 2011, the work plans were used to help the BOG make decisions regarding proposals for new degree programs and differential tuition requests. Also that year, the work plans were reviewed on a new timetable that ran concurrently with Legislative Budget Request reviews. This year (2012), the Annual Accountability Report will incorporate the additional metrics that were approved as part of the new Strategic Plan, furthering the framework for complete accountability.
Provost Workman will address the committee and present the University of North Florida's 2011-2012 Accountability Report.
In order to meet accreditation requirements outlined by the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM), the Department of Music has added eight semester hours of foreign language to the Classical Voice concentration of the Music Performance major. This change increases the number of hours required for the degree to 128 semester hours. As a result, the Department of Music is requesting an exception to the 120 credit hour requirement as outlined in the Board of Governors regulation 8.014.
Shawn Brayton, director, Academic Programs and Accreditation Liaison, will address the committee and present this item.
Proposed Action – Approval
Provost Workman will present information on the recently selected program on predictive analytics. This program is offered by the Education Advisory Board and is part of the Student Success Collaborative.
Chair Korman will adjourn the meeting.

Lattes may not have been mentioned in her C-span interview, but here is a quote from her opinion piece that is linked from an earlier post in this thread ([url]Vhttp://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/13/opinion/sund ... ntributors[/url]):Austintatious wrote: As I mentioned, I've not read her book. I think I can say, correctly, that the word "latte" was never mentioned in the 55 minute C-Span interview I watched earlier this evening, though I cannot swear to it. If Ms. Olean actually suggests that saving money by cutting back on one's lattes, and going out for lunch five days a week, instead of brown-bagging-it, or splurging on a Beamer instead of settling for a Corolla doesn't make a difference, then she would be wrong. But I haven't read her book, yet. Have you? And how about all the others posting here who have rejected her work so readily? Have they all read her book?
There is this thing called "context", and it just mioght apply to this woman and her work. Why don't you "invest" in the 55 minutes it takes to view the C-Span interview and see what you think? And if you already have viewed that interview, what do you think, Victoria?
"THE odds are good that you haven't yet given up on your New Year's resolutions and that one of them is to swear off those expensive cappuccinos and save money for your old age. That's a typical suggestion from finance gurus, who say we can add thousands of dollars annually to our nest eggs by eliminating such wasteful spending. But deciding to take your lunch to work or to cancel your cable television won't help nearly as much as you'd think."
I think most of the earlier posts that you are skewering about jumping to conclusions, relate to her opinion piece rather than the book.

At the end of Sporting Nation (a documentary on ABC) there were some great, thought provoking insights from some elite athletes. My favourite was from Herb Elliot.
Herb recounted a conversation he had early in his career, I think it was with his soon to be Olympic coach. After some discussion his coach said "so why do you want to do nothing but focus on running around and around in circles for the next 3 years, 7 days a week?" His coach answered for him (I'm paraphrasing here):
"You want to have such an intense narrow focus because it will:
- allow you to experience things you will never otherwise experience
- allow you to understand things about yourself that you never would if you didn't push yourself
- give you a great sense of self-respect
- give you a sense of self-reliance
I find it fascinating listening to the experiences of people that have achieved greatness at something. Their experience is, at a psychological and philosophical level, always so applicable elsewhere.
Here were some other take aways:
- There will always be negative things in your mind, you must learn to beat them with your attitude and not take notice of them.
- What you do must be about the intrinsic value of the activity itself rather than the extrinsic reward.

Newton In 1978, fresh off a stint as a public defender, Sam Amirante opened a brand new private criminal defense practice. His first client called, asking Amirante to help stop the police from following him. Sam accepted the offer, completely unaware that he had just committed to represent one of America's most notorious serial killers — John Wayne Gacy. Amirante chronicles his representation of Gacy from that phone call through the jury verdict, but the book is less about Gacy and much more about Amirante. It could be subtitled Reflections on Defending a Serial Killer, given that Amirante considers the meaning of criminal defense, the importance of constitutional rights, and the lack of ethics among prosecutors more than he discusses the nuts and bolts of his representation of Gacy. Sam calls himself an "

US ends long Google probe; says no search bias
Washington, January 4, 2013
In a major victory for Google, US regulators ended their investigation into the giant Internet company and concluded that it had not manipulated its Web search results to hurt rivals.
The Federal Trade Commission did, however, win promises from Google that it would end the practice of "scraping" reviews and other data from rivals' websites for its own products, and to allow advertisers to export data to independently evaluate advertising campaigns.
Google also agreed to no longer request sales bans when suing companies which infringe on patents that are essential to ensuring interoperability, also known as standard essential patents, the FTC said on Thursday.
Microsoft Corp and other Google competitors have pressed the FTC to bring a broad antitrust case against Google similar to the sweeping Justice Department litigation against Microsoft in the 1990s.
Meanwhile smaller Internet companies such as Nextag have complained about Google tweaking its Web search results to give prominence to its own products, pushing down competitors' rankings and making them more difficult for customers to find.
At a press conference, FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz anticipated criticism of the agency's decision to not further pursue Google on the so-called subject of search bias.
"Even though people would like us to bring a big search bias case, the facts aren't there," he said.
"The changes Google have agreed to make ensure that consumers continue to reap the benefits of competition in the online marketplace and in the market for innovative wireless devices they enjoy," said Leibowitz.
The commission voted 4 to 1 to settle the patent investigation into Google's injunction requests. It voted 5 to 0 to end the probe of Google's search practices.
The news had little impact on Google shares, which closed up 42 cents at $723.67, as most investors had expected the FTC probe to conclude without inflicting major damage.
"I never saw any real likelihood that the feds were going to insert themselves between one of the most popular brands in the world and the constituency that adores it," said Whit Andrews, an analyst for Gartner Inc.
Rivals disappointed
Yelp , which operates the social networking/user review website yelp.com, had complained about scraped reviews, and said it was disappointed with the result of the FTC probe.
"The closure of the commission's investigation into search bias by Google without action ... represents a missed opportunity to protect innovation in the Internet economy," wrote Yelp spokesman Vince Sollitto in an email. "We look for the regulatory bodies continuing their investigation to have greater success."
Microsoft had no immediate comment, but Dave Heiner, its deputy general counsel, complained in a blog post on Wednesday about "Google's misconduct," specifically blocking a fully featured YouTube, which Google owns, from the Windows Phone.
Gary Reback, who represents a group of Google's critics including Nextag, said he thought the investigation was inadequate since the FTC failed to respond to his clients' assertions that they had been hurt by Google and asked few questions in its civil subpoenas.
"They talked about how thorough and exhaustive the investigation was but that's really rubbish," said Reback, who is with the law firm Carr & Ferrell LLP and is best known for his work against Microsoft in the 1990s. "I've never seen anything as shallow and incomplete as this was."
Microsoft was embroiled in antitrust probes and litigation from 1990 when the FTC began an investigation until 2011, when the final consent decree finally expired.
Leibowitz defended the commission's investigation into Google, saying the agency had scoured through some 9 million pages of documents and taken sworn testimony from key Google executives.
"This was an incredibly thorough and careful investigation by the commission, and the outcome is a strong and enforceable set of agreements," he said.
Google's David Drummond, the company's chief legal officer, said the FTC announcement on Thursday meant that "Google's services are good for users and good for competition." – Reuters

The Down and Dirty Movement to Reinvent Farming
The Greenhorns documentary follows young farmers who are digging their way to an agricultural revolution.
Declining food quality, degraded farmland, an aging population of farmers, and an increasingly tight hold on food production by corporations have inspired a growing movement: The Greenhorns showcases how young farmers are getting down and dirty, learning how to farm outside the industrial agriculture model.
"The movement is for real. Its practitioners are skilled, savvy and ferocious. They are assets to their community and guarantors of our future." — Severine von Tscharner Fleming, www.thegreenhorns.net
Today's young farmers are protecting the land and seeds, reclaiming farming traditions, and sharing abundance with family and community. Meet some of these young farmers in our photo essay.
Vermont is leading the way toward agricultural and economic change. What we can learn from the "Slow Living Summit" about building sustainable economies everywhere.
The resilience of our food supply is as much about the quality and diversity of our food sources as it is about how much we produce.
Resistance to the trade and "aid" policies that displace farmers and increase hunger.

Economic Growth Stays Soft
Cutbacks in Federal Spending, Restraint From Businesses Keep Recovery From Gaining Momentum
The U.S. economy perked up in the first quarter after nearly stalling late last year, but federal budget cuts and caution by businesses highlighted mounting pressures that could weaken the recovery again in the coming months.
The nation's gross domestic product, the broadest measure of goods and services produced across the economy, expanded at an annualized 2.5% pace in the first three months of the year after growing just 0.4% in the fourth quarter. Some of the rebound came from temporary factors, such as a rebuilding of...

Lucky Irish Family Could Be Double Lottery Winners
(LETTERKENNY, Ireland) -- The luck of the Irish could be shining down on one family after two winning lottery tickets were sold in shops less than one mile apart.
The town of Letterkenny in County Donegal, Ireland, is abuzz with mystery over who the town's newly rich neighbors after two 250,000 pound, or nearly $400,000, jackpots were won in Ireland's Lotto Plus 2 drawing Saturday night by two tickets that matched all six numbers.
One $6 ticket was bought at Mac's Mace on High Road in the town on Saturday, while another $18 ticket was bought on the same day at The Paper Post on Main Street, just half a mile down the street from Mac's Mace.
The proximity of the two stores and the close timing has locals and Lotto officials predicting that two members of the same family are both in luck.
"Neither were quick picks so it rules out the possibility that one might have just been a lucky dip," National Lottery spokeswoman Paula McEvoy told the Irish Times. "Both people used these numbers on purpose. Chances are it could be a husband and wife or a mother and daughter but we can't say just yet."
Even before the possible history-making winners come forward, the sale of the two tickets alone has already made history, the first time that two winning tickets had been bought so close together, according to McEvoy.
Adding to the pot, the Lotto Plus 2 contest does not require that winners share the prize, so each winner will get the full 250,000 pound payout for their ticket. If it is two family members, then, the family doubled their winnings to 500,000 pounds.
The winners have 90 days to come forward with their tickets.
"The theory at this stage is that one family member went off to do the lottery on Saturday not knowing that another family member had also done them," Mac's Mace store owner Eunan MacIntyre told the Irish Independent. "We just don't know who bought the ticket in our shop…but we think it would be too much of a coincidence for two people to choose the same numbers."

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Lipscomb volleyball player Caitlin "Dot" Dotson and pitcher Josh Cotham have been honored by the National Strength and Conditioning Association.
Dotson, from Louisville, Ky., and Cotham, from Mt. Juliet, Tenn., have earned All-American Strength and Conditioning Athlete of the Year from the NSCA recognizing her for dedication to strength training and conditioning.
This year the NSCA awarded 229 college and high school athletes from 98 schools with the award.
Dotson was selected by LU strength coach Will Osburn who works closely with the volleyball program.
"Caitlin `Dot' Dotson has made tremendous progress in the last year –and-a- half," Osburn said. "After coming off an injury, Dot has worked diligently in the weight room and is reaping the benefits of all the hard work.
"In addition to team workouts it is common to find Dot in the weight room getting in extra work. Dot's consistency and effort have helped develop her leadership skills in the weight room and on the court."
Osburn is also actively involved in working with the baseball team and praised Cotham for his work ethic.
"Josh has been a pleasure to work with during the last four years," Osburn said. "He has always gone above what is expected. He truly is committed to being the best player he can be and uses the weight room to that end.
"He is a leader on our pitching staff, not only on the mound, but also for the entire team. He is not afraid of hard work and is always looking for the next challenge. Over the course of the last four years, he has pushed his body to its limits, and it has paid off in his performance on the mound."

|System: Xbox 360, PS3*, PC
|Dev: Visceral Games
|Pub: Electronic Arts
|Release: March 12, 2013
|Players: 1-2
|Screen Resolution: 480p-1080p
|Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Strong Language
The one element still missing, however, is the survival horror of the first Dead Space, the scrounging of resources and making every strategic gunshot count to the fullest. Then again, it would have been nearly impossible for Visceral to truly pull this off in DLC, as players are going to want to carry over their weapons, ammo, and suit upgrades from the base game. While I would have loved to see more survival elements, I'll give Awakened a pass here because it managed to get so much of the other essential details just right.
The only other complaint I can really make is that the content is incredibly short, clocking in at just a few hours. Then again, those hours are so full of great stuff that it's hard to complain. Where Dead Space 3 struggled a bit with pacing, especially for those of us who obsessed over every side mission, Awakened gets right to the point. I'd much rather have a two-to-three hour high-quality experience than a ten-hour slog of artificially padded content.
All in all, it's good to see Visceral finding new ways to remind us that Dead Space has always been a horror series, and I applaud their efforts here. Awakened delivers quite a bit of the things I felt were expected of Dead Space 3 yet were strangely missing.
If you were a fan of the first two games in the series, but you thought the third game missed the mark, Awakened could very well feel like the long-awaited return of an old friend.

Deacons are not able to give a blessing or perform any sacraments. They are simply servants. A deacon cannot give a house blessing.
I know that in the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, bishops have given permission to Deacons to serve Holy Communion; serve, not consecrate. The rule of thumb I've been taught, a Deacon cannot conduct services on his own; he cannot intone, "Blessed is Our God.."
(Holy Water blessing).

This is nothing new. Deacons have served Communion back in ancient times. They regularly serve Communion in the AOA.

It began with a simple pencil drive
in 2008 to help students struggling in Haiti and the Dominican Republic.
In just two weeks, Juan Carlos
Villatora, a policital science major from El Salvador, and two other University
of North Florida student volunteers collected about 1,500 pounds of school
supplies to be divided between school-aged students in the two countries. When they
arrived in the Dominican Republic during spring break to deliver the supplies,
the UNF students saw for themselves how isolated the children were and how
difficult the learning conditions. There was no electricity. Many have never
seen a computer, much less used one. And those who had used one had never
connected to the Internet. They had no way to do up-to-the-minute research or
connect to the rest of the world.
And that is when the UNF students
decided they had to do something to help.
They promised the children at
Centro Educativo, a small school in the village of Pananoa, and themselves that
they would be back with the equipment and supplies necessary to make a real
"If you provide the Internet and
connectivity, you have plugged them into the world of knowledge," Villatora
said. "They are up to par with modern teaching and everything else that comes
with it. You have taught them how to learn in a whole new way."
When they arrived back at UNF, they
talked to others in the Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) club and an idea
began to take shape. They wanted to bring technology to the students, but had
to do so in a way that would protect the sensitive machinery from the pervasive
heat and humidity of the Dominican Republic. From that need, the Connect.
Educate. Lead (CEL) project was born.
"The U.S. has become more of an
importer than an exporter and has a surplus of shipping containers," Villatora
said. "They are no longer seaworthy and we wanted to recycle them into computer
labs or living quarters which can then be shipped anywhere in the U.S. or
around the world."
After learning that shipping
containers can be retrofitted to become independent units for living or
learning, the group quickly jumped on the idea as a solution to their dilemma.
The repurposed containers were a way to bring sustainable education and
economic growth to the area. And it fit right in with the mission of SIFE.
The group has worked out an
agreement with Crowley Maritime Corporation to move the container from campus
to the Dominican Republic. The SIFE students are still working on to raise the
last $6,200 in private donations need to complete the solar-powered computer
"We still need a satellite dish and
the thin client servers," Villatora said. "Without the satellite dish, this
village will not be able to receive an Internet, which, in turn, will end the
distance learning aspect."
In its 17th year at UNF,
SIFE brings together a diverse network of students, faculty members and
industry leaders on a shared mission of creating a better, more sustainable
world through the positive power of business. UNF SIFE participants demonstrate
that anyone with knowledge and passion for business can be a powerful force for
Dr. Fred Pragasam, a senior
instructor in Marketing and Logistics and a former 10-year adviser to the UNF
SIFE group, said, "SIFE creates that leadership quality and expose the students
to some of the societal needs. Apart from the academic work, the students are
involved in what society needs and community-related needs."
There are more than 1,500 active SIFE
teams in 39 countries around the globe. More than 48,000 students participate
in 8,700 team community projects. Students in SIFE volunteer nearly five
million hours annually and bring in about $19 million in global network
revenue. While the numbers might be staggering, SIFE's mission is simple: To
bring together the top leaders of today and tomorrow to create a better, more
sustainable world through the positive power of business.
Each year, the UNF group strives to
do just that. They work to develop projects that involve members of the
University community, local businesses and industry and the Jacksonville
community. The projects are then entered in regional competition against other
SIFE groups and if they are successful at that level go on to the SIFE USA
National Exposition and then, if they are chosen as the national champion,
represent SIFE at the World Cup competition.
UNF SIFE has won 14 consecutive
regional championships and placed in the top 20 of 800 teams nationally in five
of the last six years.
"SIFE is a wonderful way to accomplish something while gaining valuable
experience," said Mirza Catic, the group's
president who graduated in December 2010 with a degree in financial services
and who currently works as an options analyst at Deutsche Bank. "Companies really want students who have
participated in SIFE because they know they know how to produce measurable
SIFE Hall-of-Famer Pragasam agrees.
"I think we have really brought the name of UNF to a national level now. SIFE
is supported by several multi-national companies and because of our success the
past few years, it has brought a tremendous amount of attention to UNF
nationally and internationally."
And some of the former
SIFE students have brought themselves a great deal of success internationally.
Sylvester John is a 2001 UNF graduate who is now the President of the SIFE
International Affiliate. He parlayed a very successful career in SIFE as a
student to an even more successful career as the head of the international
portion of SIFE, a job that was created for the Sierra Leona native. "I had
been working as a consultant and SIFE head-hunted me," he said from a
Paris-bound train. "I went to the head office and was told to take my model all
across Africa and 10 years later, we are in 39 countries."
When he was a UNF student, John
developed a highly successful SIFE program in Ghana, which helped to develop
businesses with local residents. John put together the plan for the operation,
which included the writing and review of business plans and the execution of
those chosen.
"It was a four-month
transformational learning experience," John said. "And it ultimately led to the
position I have now."
More than 90 percent of
all SIFE students are hired upon graduation and most of them are hired at the
mid-manager level, said David Hayes, one of the co-Sam Walton fellows for SIFE
and the faculty adviser for the group. He has been a former judge at the SIFE
National Competition. "These students are not hired for entry-level positions.
They have already done that while in school and while participating on these
many projects. When they graduate, they are ready for much more substantial
John could not agree more. "If
there is one thing I learned at UNF through SIFE," he said, "it is that nothing
comes without hard work or some amount of pain. Those of us in SIFE tend to
fully appreciate that academics are only one piece. We still need the soft
skills to land a good job in a fulfilling career. And they only way we can get
those soft skills is through practice. Those of us who had the good fortune to
join SIFE soon learned that by the time we graduated, we had a little more of
an edge. We were much more ready than many of our colleagues. We could speak to
real, practical issues."
This year, SIFE was brought under
the umbrella of the Institute for Values, Community and Leadership (IVCL). The
IVCL addresses the very real need of empowering future leaders to take their
place in the world with the knowledge, skill set and acumen needed to hit the
ground running after graduation. Both the IVCL and SIFE have like goals — to
provide students with the experience necessary to be confident leaders in the
community, the region, the nation or internationally.
Dr. Annabel Brooks is the other
co-Sam Walton Fellow and director of the IVCL. Brooks said that bringing SIFE
into IVCL was a great decision for the University and its students.
"Universities as a whole do a great
job at putting out teachers, biologists and rocket scientists," she said. "But
in general, they do not do such a good job at putting out leaders. Combining
SIFE with IVCL ensures UNF will graduate highly qualified leaders who are also
extremely competent teachers, biologists and rocket scientists. We are devoted
to community engagement and leadership."
The CEL project, just one of many
SIFE is currently working on, gives UNF students the opportunity to extend
their educational experiences beyond traditional coursework. By using
decommissioned shipping containers that are no longer seaworthy, students from Dr.
Maged Malek's industrial construction class in the College of Computing,
Engineering and Construction did the actual retrofitting and
built a classroom that is solar
powered and self-sustaining. They were able to strip it down to its barest
bones and build it back up to a unit that is now non-corrosive, able to
withstand both hurricanes and earthquakes, and completely off the grid.
The solar system design and
installation was done by John Gonzalez, an electrical engineering student under
the supervision of CCEC Associate Dean Dr. Gerry Merckel.
The container is outfitted with furniture
and computers from UNF that are no longer in use. The technology is a few years
behind and no longer useful at the University, but perfect for students who are
just learning or have somewhat less technical needs. They will be able to learn
and explore with "recycled" machines and software.
Villatora, who works on this
project every day of each week, said this particular project shows the
University has the capability to help create jobs for graduating students and
the local community while impacting communities across the rest of the world.
container project is more than just a way to bring the outside world to the
students who need it most — it is also a way for UNF students to come together
across disciplines to create a legacy. It gives back and pays forward all at
the same time by providing a much-needed educational opportunity for the
students in the Dominican Republic, but also will provide real-life experience
for the UNF students who have participated in the project. And that is what
SIFE is all about — combining education with real-world needs and providing
long-lasting solutions while forever changing those who participate.
"I would not be where I am today
without SIFE," John said.

Sienna & Rhys are Two Peas in a Pod
Sienna Miller and BFF Welsh actor Rhys Ifans spend ever waking moment together — walking her dogs Porgy and Bess and hitting up London's nightlife over the weekend.
One eyewitness tells UK's The Mirror about their antics at the Lonsdale Bar, West London: "Rhys was kneeling, stripped to the waist, gazing up at Sienna who started shrieking with laughter. It was a bit of a sight, Rhys is the shade of milk and really puny – he looks better with his clothes on than off.
"And of course he was dripping in beer. After a while Sienna looked a bit embarrassed – especially as all her family were there."

Im looking for a chart that lists the amount of time it takes for a tool like john or L0phtcrack to run thought a keyspace (example: all alphanumerical, all type able characters, etc) given a certain system. Ive found some of this kind of data for RainbowCrack, but not the other two.
By the way, I assume johns notation of c/s: is the number of keys tried per sec, but if thats the case L0phtcrack would be around 6 times faster which I find hard to believe.

Editor's note: Kevin Smithwood, of Wolfeboro, is a junior at Colby College in Maine and he spent the past three weeks of his January break at the NH Farm Museum going through 38 letters in the museum's archives that were written from Civil War soldier John Varney of Milton to his brother-in-law Charles Jones of the Jones Farm (now the NH Farm Museum). Varney served in the war from 1861 to 1865.
By Kevin Smithwood
MILTON — John H. Varney was a man that history tends to pass over in its quest for war heroes, leaders, and compelling stories. He was never given any medals, was not a high-ranking officer, and his name was so common he was not even the only John Varney from Milton in the Union army. He served as a commissary officer and had the responsibility of ensuring the soldiers were supplied with rations, not exactly a position for glory and honor. His story is that of the reluctant soldier. Like so many who fought for the North, he saw little motivation to fight for causes he did not understand, but carried out his duty nonetheless. It is unlikely his story would ever be told if Charles Jones, the owner of the Jones Farm that is now the NH Farm Museum, had not saved 38 letters Varney wrote to him during the war. The letters give insight into the life of a man that good fortune had a way of avoiding.
In the 1860 Census, Varney was listed as the head of a large household containing 15 people. He lived with his wife, Nancy, and ran a shoemaking shop with his brother Charles. In addition, they employed 10 workers and housed them all along with the wives of those who were married. The success John H. Varney enjoyed was abruptly interrupted with the outbreak of the war in 1861. Patriotism and visions of a short, glorious war swept through the north and Varney left his home and family to join the Union and fight the "Rebs." Before he left, he made a promise to his wife that he would not expose himself to battle if she maintained her health, a promise it appears both of them kept throughout the war.
John Varney was mustered into the army in November of 1861 at the age of 28. Upon enlistment, he received the rank of sergeant, a nod to his relative prominence before the war. He also received a $10 bounty upon enlistment, a far cry from the sums men would receive in later, more desperate years. The injustice in the most patriotic men receiving the smallest amounts irked him throughout the war. He volunteered with many men from his shop and from Milton, and received two promotions, becoming a first lieutenant in 1863. In that year, Varney and his friend Eli Wentworth were the only officers out of 119 Union men from Milton. Despite his relative success, Varney was never satisfied with the army and those who commanded it. He criticized George McClellan and called him "a fool, a naïve, a coward."
He also believed the length of the war and the massive casualties in it were due to Union leadership's inability to exploit the numeric superiority of the North and recruit able men. He was highly critical of "bounty men," who enlisted only after the federal government enacted laws to pay for enlistments. Varney despised these men and characterized them as poor soldiers. In his letters to Charles Jones, he never criticized slavery or expressed a desire to end the institution. This, however, did not mean he was racist. Varney rarely depicted African-Americans in his letters, but when he did it was always in a positive light. He characterized African-Americans as "brighter than the whites" and "good soldiers." Varney rarely discussed preserving the Union and gave no indication that he was motivated by a desire to keep the country intact. As early as 1862, Varney stated, "I am for the recognition of the Southern Confederacy."
A promotion and the turning momentum of the war lifted his spirits in the spring and summer of 1863, but by October he wrote that the men were starving and the regiment was in a location that made it very difficult to get supplies. By 1864, John Varney was a broken man. The winter had been hard on the men, and Ulysses S. Grant's costly Overland Campaign destroyed any patriotism he had left. His principle concern became leaving the army and returning home to Milton once his three years were up. His quiet New Hampshire town was always on his mind. He frequently asked Charles Jones about town elections and finances. He was so concerned with the town's well-being that he wrote to Jones in 1862: "If the town wants to borrow some money, please let them have what I have got in the banks for I don't think them very prosperous now." By the fall of 1864, it had been three years since he had been home.
Varney voted for Abraham Lincoln in the 1864 election "with little heart" and with the expectation that he would be discharged from the army a few weeks later. Never one to hold his tongue, he routinely criticized Lincoln in the months before the election. There has been a renewed focus on Lincoln recently and his amazing abilities as a leader and strategist, but to Varney he was nothing more than an idealistic and incompetent politician. Varney lashed out at the president for clinging on to hopes of winning the war without recruiting enough men to do so.
John Varney was conscripted back into the army in late November, three days before he was entitled to go home. Had he not been an officer he would have been free to leave, but due to his position as a brigade commissary he was kept in the army. This left him feeling betrayed by the country that he served for three long years, only to be told it was not enough. After his conscription, he wrote, "I am… blue-mad-discouraged-disheartened-unlucky-miserable." Three years of bloody war drained him of his honor and pride. In one of his final letters to Charles Jones, he wrote, "Damn this country," and spoke of a desire to have Maine and New Hampshire secede from the Union and join Canada. After seeing his comrades die on the fields of Second Bull Run, Antietam, Fredericksburg, and Spotsylvania, he left the army wondering what he and so many others had sacrificed so much for. He was full of bitterness and resentment that he probably held the rest of his life.
After the war, John Varney's life was never the same. His once-thriving shoe shop was now lifeless and he was forced to start a new life. On his way home he probably passed by Eli Wentworth's house. The family inside held a letter Varney wrote them in 1863 to tell them Eli was never coming home. In the ultimate act of adding insult to injury, Varney discovered a bill the government claimed Wentworth owed them for supplies. He wondered how a man who died serving his country could possibly owe the government anything.
He left Milton with his wife, Nancy sometime thereafter, and went to Haverhill, Mass. One can only wonder if it was out of necessity or if he was trying to escape from his past. He worked in Haverhill in a shoe factory, a humiliating existence for a man who once was a prominent citizen and business owner. In 1860, he had been the head of a household of 15, with plenty of family members living nearby. By 1870, he was a factory worker living with only his wife. John and Nancy Varney never had any children. Varney quietly lived out his life in Haverhill until his death in 1893. He may have never been shot in the war, but John H. Varney was certainly a casualty of it.
