As part of the arduous efforts and relentless attempts to defend Hezbollah's arms, the ruling authority committed a "diplomatic forgery" by premeditatedly omitting any mention of the UN Security Council Resolution 1559 from the final statement of the International Support Group of Lebanon issued on Friday.
The English version of the statement issued by the United Nations clearly calls for Lebanon to implement the UNSC decisions, notably resolutions 1559 and 1701. Below is the relevant excerpt:
"The Group reiterates the need for full implementation and full respect of all UN Security Council resolutions, including resolutions 1559 (2004) and 1701 (2006). It commends the role of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) in maintaining calm along the Blue Line and its cooperation with the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) with the aim of extending and consolidating the authority of the Lebanese State across the whole of the national territory. It expresses its deep concern at all violations in connection with resolution 1701 (2006) in particular the incidents detailed in the reports of the Secretary General to the Council on the implementation of resolution 1701. It calls upon the LAF and UNIFIL to step up their cooperation, with the goal of speeding up the effective and durable deployment of the LAF in southern Lebanon and the territorial waters of Lebanon, in accordance with resolution 2373 (2017), and encourages the LAF to continue the initial steps it has taken in this regard."
It is worth noting that the UN Security Council Resolution 1559 calls for the disbanding and disarmament of all Lebanese and non-Lebanese militias.
However, the statement was transferred for translation by the Lebanese Embassy and the Lebanese Foreign Ministry which omitted the part mentioning Resolution 1559 from the text.
According to knowledgeable sources, the French Embassy in Beirut detected the alteration, corrected it and re-distributed the statement.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving technique useful in many emergencies, including heart attack or near drowning. A situation when someone's breathing or heartbeat has stopped. CPR can keep oxygenated blood flowing to the brain and other vital organs until more definitive medical treatment can restore a normal heart rhythm. Ideally, CPR involves two elements: chest compressions combined with mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing. However, what you as a bystander, should do in an emergency situation really depends on your knowledge and comfort level. The bottom line is that it's far better to do something than to do nothing at all.
This is what I, as a physician of thirty years, recommend to those who ask me what they should do.
If you're not trained in CPR, then provide hands-only CPR. That means uninterrupted chest compressions of about 100 a minute until paramedics arrive. You don't need to perform rescue breathing. If you've previously received CPR training, but you're not confident in your abilities, then just do chest compressions at a rate of about 100 a minute. This is the "magic number", 100! It's the only real number you need to remember. If you're trained, and confident in your ability, then you can opt for one of two approaches: Alternate between 30 chest compressions and two rescue breaths, or just do chest compressions.
This advice applies only to adults needing CPR, not to children.
Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation changed this year, as statistically, "mouth to mouth" shows no significant improvement in CPR effectiveness. This applies to adults and not to children. Mayo Clinic findings have convinced experts to remove the mouth to mouth component out of the protocol traditionally endorsed by the American Heart Association and The American Red Cross. Even without mouth to mouth, the compressions alone, are delivering about 70% oxygenated blood to the brain, giving the victim a huge chance for survival. The alternative, "doing nothing at all", is fatal.
I am often asked, why doesn't this apply to children? The reason is that most CPR events occur with older adults who have had a cardiac event which renders them unconscious and unresponsive. Children, on the other hand, are generally healthy and robust from a cardiac stand point. They do not generally have heart attacks, and do not usually suffer from cardiac arrest unless already air starved from a life threatening pulmonary condition such as an asthma attack, depleting them of oxygen. Therefore, replacing oxygen (mouth-to-mouth breathing) is critical for their survival.
Do the smart thing. Get certified in CPR. Always be prepared to make a difference, and be able to save someone's life.

Hi -
Somehow it went from being winter to summer without much spring in
between. A shame, because I like spring a lot. I've gotten to see a few good shows, though.
Saw David Torn play locally. Challenging, but wonderful. Got to see local
ambient guitarist Craig Chin play as Errant Space. Nice show and great
guy. And got to see two great guitarists, Helen Avakian and Muriel
Anderson play as well. That was a great show. More great stuff coming up,
too. Looking forward to seeing Rachel Grimes play, and Robin Spielberg
will be in the area, too. If any of you are performing in the area,
please let me know so I can help promote it. I haven't had any live
interviews or performances in a while. I'd like to change that. If any of
you are in the area on a Sunday morning and want to drop by, let me know
and we'll set something up. The big news this month is that I'm
celebrating 28 years of Secret Music. Been a long time, and a lot of great
stories to tell. If you're around and you'd like to take part, let me
Most of you know me at this point. but there's a few that might not. My
name is Scott Raymond, and for those of you who don't know me, I'm a New
Age/Ambient/Electronic music DJ with WVKR-FM. WVKR is a 3700 watt
non-commercial station broadcasting from Vassar College to the greater
Hudson Valley region. My show, "Secret Music", has been on for over 27
years and has a large and devoted audience. The show airs every Sunday
from 9AM to 12 noon EST. For more information or to listen in online,
check out our website at www.wvkr.org.
I'm always looking for new and interesting music to play. If you have
something you think I'd be interested in, feel free to send it to the address below. I'm perfectly
fine with downloads instead of CD's, especially for all you overseas
people who pay large sums of money to mail things here to the states.
Don't get me wrong. I love CD's and love to see nice packaging. But I know
what it costs to mail such things, too. It's up to you. I usually prefer
high quality MP3's, though I can accept other formats if necessary. Just
send me an email for more info. At least half of what I play these days
comes to me through downloads. Thanks.

Tyler, the Creator, Analog 2?Posted: July 6, 2011 Filed under: Connor McGann | Tags: analog 2, mixtape, summer camp, tyler the creator Leave a comment
Check this jam from Tyler, the Creator, from his summer camp mixtape, which consists of what he considers to be summer-y songs. Really cool beat, and calmed down, but still very typical Tyler lyrics. Check it, it's pretty solid for something that was probably thrown together pretty quickly.

I Love the iTunes Top Ten AlbumsPosted: May 14, 2011 Filed under: Connor McGann | Tags: 14, adele, beastie boys, fleet foxes, fleetwood mac, itunes, may, mumford & sons, top ten, tyler the creator Leave a comment
I love the iTunes top ten right now. Adele's '21' is still in the Top spot, dominating, plus '19', her debut album, is at number 9. Lonely Island is at number two. I don't listen to comedy music really, but, they have some funny songs. There's other albums that deserve that spot, but still they're probably more talented then a lot of artists who have been in that spot. American Idol sucks but whatever. Christina Perri?
Okay so the top Five has some scattered good albums but the 10-5 is absolutely genius. Every single album is not only good, but very good. It's pure quality, and that's rare and amazing. It's a good day.
Love how the Beastie Boys did a reggae track with Santigold.
One of the best songs off of 'Goblin' by far. Helps that Frank Ocean makes a guest appearence.
Who's not happy Fleetwood Mac is there. It just feels good to have some older, more solid talent up there with all those newer artists.
With the US Release of 'Goblin' looming, Who is Your Favorite Odd Future Member?Posted: May 9, 2011 Filed under: Connor McGann | Tags: artist, domo genesis, Earl Sweatshirt, favorite, frank ocean, mellowhype, member, mike g, odd future, poll, syd tha kid, tyler the creator Leave a comment
'Goblin' comes out in the US tomorrow, and it's already out in Europe. Tyler, the Creator and MellowHype both have albums on the way, probably in 2012, despite very recent releases. Earl Sweatshirt is bound to be released from Samoan boarding school within the next couple of years, he's gotta be 18 very soon right? How long has it been since he released 'Earl'? Two years? Obviously Odd Future's mainstream takeover is still in its early stages.
With the 'Goblin' release looming, and due to suggestions for an Earl vs. Tyler kinds of poll, I decided to make a poll asking, who is your favorite OF member. And hopefully the next poll won't be Odd Future-centric. Two in a row is cool, time to move on after this, but for now, drop a vote.
The Goblin LeakPosted: May 6, 2011 Filed under: Connor McGann | Tags: goblin, leak, mag, mediafire, reaction, tyler the creator, xxl 1 Comment
Tyler and his therapist are back. 'Goblin' has leaked. It leaked a few days ago I'm pretty sure, but I haven't gotten around to it until today. The first song seems like an intense presentation of Tyler slowly slipping away from the last bit of his own sanity due to his own anger and personal problems. I'm about to spend the next hour checking out 'Goblin'. Yes.
Here's a link to Tyler's reaction to the 'Goblin' leak.
And, here is the link to the much hyped, anxiously awaited, 'Goblin'. Enjoy the leak.
Mashup Monday? OFWGKTA and Neutral Milk HotelPosted: April 25, 2011 Filed under: Connor McGann | Tags: Earl Sweatshirt, king of assmilk flowers, mashup, neutral milk hotel, toro y moi, tyler the creator Leave a comment
I love OFWGKTA and I love Neutral Milk Hotel. I never imagined in a million years I would come across a mashup of Tyler, the Creator and Earl Sweatshirt's 'Assmilk' and Neutral Milk Hotel's 'King of Carrot Flowers, Pt. 1'. When combining two names like that, the end result is bound to turn out weird, 'King of Assmilk Flowers', but nevertheless the track is a great and upbeat track that brings a whole new feel to Tyler and Earl's raps.
King of Assmilk Flowers – Tyler the Creator
Here's another pretty cool track, Toro y Moi's remix of Tyler, the Creator's 'French'
Where is Earl?Posted: March 27, 2011 Filed under: Connor McGann | Tags: earl, Earl Sweatshirt, free, hodgy beats, kta, mellowhype, odd future, ofwg, tyler the creator 4 Comments
UPDATE: "his mom sent him to boot camp after hearing his lyrics … some kid from la told me on xbox live i was telling ant about em and hes like you know odd future and i said ya then he asked if i was from la then i said no then hes like wow theyre gettting popular blah blah then i said what happened to earl and he told me cause he used to hang out with earl"
My brother sent me this on Facebook, could this be the answer…
Speaking of OFWGKTA, Earl Sweatshirt. People have been saying that this kid, who's 17 right now, and released his debut at 16, has more talent then Nas at this age. Tyler, the Creator himself said that Earl's debut was better then the holy grail, Nas' debut, Illmatic.
While I don't think Earl's debut was that good, still, the kid is a beast. His rhymes are complex, filled to the brim with multiple rhymes within the same lines, and velvety smooth flows.
Tyler is the leader of OFWGTKA and dude is a master of all things marketing his brand, and making people pay attention. From the violent and surreal drug addled music, to the persona who puts forth, and the fact that him and his friends basically fuck around and mess with the journalists in nearly every interview I've seen or read, this guy knows how to make people focus on him, and his clique.
You have to respect their intelligence. OFWGTKA is bringing a fresh feel to nearly every aspect of music and music industry. Even if their music isn't quite on the same level as Nas' debut, they know exactly how to get where they wanna be, and they're going there fast.
From Nas comparisons and Kanye call outs, to interviews from nearly everyone and insanely fresh music, OFWGKTA has got it all.
My biggest question is where is Earl? Tyler himself has told interviewers he is dead, but I don't know how believable that actually is. Wikipedia says he's at boarding school, more believable. Part of the appeal of Earl, is the mystery of Earl. Most of the world has no idea who he actually is besides a member of Odd Future and Tyler's brother, they just know him as Earl, a really good young rapper. No one knows where he actually is besides his friends and family. WHERE IS EARL. That's all I ask. Cause this kid is fucking nasty.

Teacher's Day is celebrated on the 5th of September in India – in honour of Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. Dr Radhakrishnan was a celebrated academic, India's first vice president and second president. Apparently, his students wanted to celebrate his birthday, but he suggested the day to be observed as Teacher's Day in honor of all teachers.
That Dr Radhakrishnan's students wanted to celebrate his birthday got me wondering. Why do we want to celebrate some teachers? What makes them special? We surely don't celebrate or remember every teacher.
We really remember two kinds of teachers. The first category are teachers are those who cared, identified talents in kids, and provided room for a 'growth mindset'. The other category who were strict, somewhat mean and might even embarass students in the class.
Caring teachers who foster growth mindsets in students: Showing students you care about them helps create a positive and supportive relationship. It helps build an environment where learning can flourish. Makes the student feel confident and valued. Let me elaborate with some personal stories.
One of my earliest memories is that I used to pluck flowers and make a small garland everyday for my Montessori teacher. She used to thank me, take the garland, and tie it on her hair with utmost care. That used to be a proud moment for me. And the bond with her was strong! Now when I look back I wonder what made me do that for my teacher? It was her smile and the motherly care. Almost all of my batchmates still remember her, our Laxmi-auntie. And the memories are still fresh in my mind.
I fondly remember our sports teacher in primary school. He used to provide equal opportunity for football, cricket etc irrespective of gender. Just pause for second and focus on 'irrespective of gender' – because it was not very common. And that made him special to all us girls. In secondary school, once I had made a mistake during my physics experiment. Our teacher took utmost care in pointing out the mistake, patiently explaining the concepts, and even elaborating why it was an important thing to remember and be careful about. I felt indebted to him!
At medical school, it was all of new experience. The hostel life, staying outside home state, different language everything seemed like a challenge. The hostel warden took it upon herself to make us newbies comfortable.
Strict or mean teachers: One of our maths teacher used to be very strict in the classroom. All we remember is punishments. Punishments for not completing home task, duster taps for not doing a sum right etc. May be her intention was not wrong, but the way she used to express herself was not right. She used to teach maths very well, but all students used to be scared throughout the class. Well, "A school life isn't complete without one strict teacher" – all of us must have encountered at least one teacher who was unnecessarily strict. Me and my friends remember our primary maths teacher for her strictness and the punishments. The memories are not fond though!
So who is an ideal teacher?
An ideal teacher provides kids under her/his care with the best foundation in learning. And this learning equips them with knowledge, skills and positive attitudes for success in future life. An ideal teacher cares for students and guides them through mistakes. An ideal teacher never gives up on a student, irrespective of the students shortcomings.
"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around". – Leo Buscaglia. A teacher must have all the qualities. Because a teacher "Takes a hand, Opens a mind, and Touches a Heart".
Being a teacher is the highest privilege. Happy Teachers Day to all the wonderful teachers!
Parents, please encourage your kids to express their love for thier teachers through the painting contest. Please upload the paintings at http://bloombrite.com/contest/

Guest edited by Sandy Baldwin and Alan Sondheim. Gallery curated by Mez Breeze.
This special issue, guest edited by Sandy Baldwin and Alan Sondheim, considers the network as dispersive anatomy. As the call for papers stated, "A fundamental shift in the way we view the world is underway: the abandonment of discrete objects, and objecthood itself. The world is now plural, and the distinction between real and virtual is becoming increasingly blurred, with troubling consequences within the geopolitical register. This shift is related to a cultural change that emphasizes digital deconstruction over analog construction: a photograph for example can be accessed and transformed, pixel by pixel, cities can be taken apart by gerrymandering or eminent domain, and our social networks are replete with names and images that problematize friendship, sexuality, and culture itself. One issue that emerges here: Are we networking or are we networked? Are we networks ourselves?" The resulting texts and works deal with this fundamental shift in new and illuminating ways.

LEA Special Issue: Dispersive Anatomies
I've just had a paper published about J.G. Ballard's Crash by the Leonardo Electronic Almanac in a special issue titled 'Dispersive Anatomies' - guest edited by Sandy Baldwin and Alan Sondheim. I suppose the publication date just missed its timeliness... but so it goes.

Dude, took long enough. Congrats, and you better update more often or I'll disperse your anatomy.ReplyDelete
Hey, a year and a half later isn't SO bad. I would congratulate you, but I think I did that last year :)ReplyDelete

I just finished this weeks video's for the second time. What a mind opener.
The Power of a Story, Pictures of our Cells, along with Words for Reason make it easier to Understand.
On video 2 at 6:28 they talk about The Sunrise of a New Day being The Beginning of New Thought. Like in the GS, "Today I begin a new life." so Encouraging.
I can relate to what the guy said about how "It takes a little time to settle his thoughts in the morning but "When I Create My Day 1st… out of nowhere, little things start to happen. I know they are the process of My Creation." He said it gives him Power & Incentive to Do It the next day …
We do have now the Power to Re-Design for Success. I can't wait to hear how all of you respond to this lesson.

Did your son or daughter lose a baby tooth months ago and there is still no sign of a replacement tooth? Here are two common reasons (and three rare ones) why this sometimes happens. First, for a permanent tooth to erupt into place, there must be sufficient space. The permanent teeth in the front of the mouth are much wider than the baby teeth they replace. Ideally, by the time a baby tooth is lost, there should be extra space on either side of it so that the permanent tooth will have plenty of room. If there is not enough…Read More >

Is All Orthodontic Treatment The Same?Posted by Dr. Jorgensen on March 11th, 2012
An attractive, healthy smile is an asset that can last a lifetime. Not only will orthodontic treatment influence how you feel about yourself, it will also contribute to how healthy and stable your teeth are in the long run. Awarding "the contract" to the right orthodontist for your family is too important to simply accept the lowest bid. All smiles are not created equally and just because a dentist has a license is no guarantee that you'll be happy with the results. Here are four things you may want to consider as you choose your orthodontist: First, consider the organization…Read More >
Orthodontic Treatment is the Medical Deal of the Century!Posted by Dr. Jorgensen on October 5th, 2011
Perhaps the biggest obstacle patients have to getting their teeth straight is the cost of treatment. Because braces are not a commodity that sits on a shelf at the store for all to see, many have no idea what they cost. Are braces really that expensive? By comparison they are actually one of the best values in medicine today! My 21-year-old son had Lasik surgery this past summer. The total treatment time for his screening appointment (1 hour), procedure (30 minutes), and one follow-up visit (15 minutes) was 1 hour 45 minutes. The fee was $4700.

Limitations of Early Orthodontic TreatmentPosted by Dr. Jorgensen on August 10th, 2011
I am a big fan of early orthodontic treatment. I treated all three of my own children with two-phased treatment and would do it again. Wonderful things can be accomplished during the first phase of a two-phased treatment. It is time, however, that I "fess up" and explain the things that interceptive care will not accomplish for your child. A lot of the problems we fix through orthodontic treatment are genetic and no matter how accurate our diagnosis and treatment plan, we just can't overcome the patient's DNA.

Red Wings rising above a season of musical chairs
San Jose has become the new New Jersey, New Jersey the new Atlanta, Atlanta the new Chicago, and Chicago the new San Jose. So it shouldn't be any surprise that Detroit's once again the NHL's best team - that usually happens when there's this much turmoil.
The two biggest stories of the offseason - Chicago's salary cap and Ilya Kovalchuk's contract - unfolded about as expected; the Blackhawks sold off spare parts, and Kovalchuk signed a forever deal in New Jersey. The ramifications have been more unexpected. The affected parties:
Atlanta: A year ago, the Thrashers couldn't get Kovalchuk to take 100 million of their dollars. Now, they've got a similar record to the reigning champs', thanks in large part to two players, Andrew Ladd and Dustin Byfuglien, Chicago deemed expendable during its offseason purge. Ladd has become Atlanta's captain and has 25 points - three more than Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews. Byfuglien, whom the Thrashers moved back to his natural position on the blue line, leads all NHL defensemen with 10 goals and 27 points - 5 and 11 in the past seven games.
Chicago: The Blackhawks parted ways with Byfuglien and his $3 million contract while ponying up $3.5 million to prevent the Sharks from poaching Niklas Hjalmarsson, who has two points. Ouch. Had Chicago made all the right moves, it might have sustained its dominance. Instead, the Blackhawks look like a team built to contend every year but not necessarily win now.
New Jersey: Kovalchuk playing 21-plus minutes per game, Johan Hedberg in goal, awful defense ... That formula didn't work in Atlanta, either. Injuries to Zach Parise, Martin Brodeur and Anton Volchenkov have exacerbated the situation, but even at full strength, the Devils don't have enough defense to win.
San Jose: The Sharks forced Chicago's hand with an offer sheet to Hjalmarsson, but they didn't do it (entirely) out of spite. They're short a top-four defenseman. There's plenty of time to fill the gap, but failing to adequately replace a core player, Rob Blake, is a sign of a team on the decline. "We're adjusting," winger Dany Heatley said, "but we obviously miss Blakey."
Three periods: If the Sharks turn to the trade market to replace Blake, who will be available? Vancouver is so overstocked that offseason-acquisition Keith Ballard has often been a healthy scratch. The Canucks' most attractive trade chip? Former Shark Christian Ehrhoff, due for a big raise before next season that Vancouver can't afford. ... St. Louis' David Perron has missed 13 games since a Joe Thornton hit on him, giving him a concussion. It was a good hockey hit, the type players grow up learning. Still, Thornton had to be suspended. You can't take that hit out of the game, but the league has to try; concussion prevention simply hasn't kept up with the strength of players. ... The Sharks and Kings play at 6 p.m. New Year's Day at Staples Center. Does that leave enough time for Heatley and Joe Pavelski to sneak over to the Rose Bowl, where their alma mater, Wisconsin, probably will be playing at 1:30 p.m.? "It'll be tight, but I think we might be able to slide over for a half," Heatley said.
Sharks today
Who: Sharks (12-8-4) vs. Canadiens (16-8-2)
When: 11 a.m.
Where: Montreal
TV/Radio: CSNCA/98.5
What to watch: It's measuring-stick week for the Sharks. If we did power rankings, the Red Wings would be No. 1 and the Flyers No. 2. San Jose is at Detroit at 4:30 p.m. Monday and at Philly at 4 p.m. Wednesday. Catch both games on Versus.

Mets minor-league OF and former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow had two hits Wednesday against the Marlins, raising his Grapefruit League average to .214 during 14 at bats.
Tebow also made a leaping catch in right field, drawing praise from Marlins manager Don Mattingly.
"He's getting better," Mets manager Terry Collins added. "That was the point. That's why he's here -- to see if he can make some strides -- and he's made very good strides."
With big-league players soon returning to St. Lucie from the World Baseball Classic, and with games beginning in minor-league camp, Collins said Wednesday was most likely Tebow's final Grapefruit League game.

"I feel like I'm improving," Tebow said after the game. "I feel like I'm getting better every day, getting more and more comfortable, and also really enjoying it at the same time. ... It's been super fun and enjoyable, and a big adjustment. But at the same time, I feel like I've been learning every day and taking something new every day."
"I'm trying to make the most of it as far as a learning opportunity - learn from as many of the guys, as many of the coaches, as possible and try to absorb as much knowledge as possible."
Tebow signed a $100,000 contract with the Mets last year. He hit .194 with no home runs and 20 strikeouts in 19 games in the Arizona Fall League in October.
He is expected to compete in minor-league camp for role in the organization's farm system, likely beginning his professional career with their Low-A affiliate in Columbia, S.C.

When Watertown was locked down to search for the second Marathon bombing suspect, it did not raise many eyebrows since we were all still on the edge of our seats, waiting for the word that he had been captured. But once the smoke cleared, it alarmed many to find that the mainstream media had misled viewers into thinking that door to door searches of residences in Watertown were consensual. In fact Fourth amendment rights were violated wholesale, and in the end the heavy policy presence and door to door rights violations did not yield the suspect. Just minutes after police declared the lockdown was lifted, a man spotted the suspect in his boat in the backyard, and called police. To be clear, the heavy police presence and suspension of Constitutional rights did not lead to the suspect's capture.
I am very grateful that we have such a highly skilled police force in this country who can track down and capture criminals, but I am concerned over the new trend that says we should all be willing to forfeit our rights anytime something is deemed an emergency. A couple videos have surfaced of the police raids on Watertown, in which police order a family out of their home to conduct a search of their house. There were reportedly no warrants, and the searches were placed in the same category of hot pursuit not requiring a warrant. But this was not hot pursuit (they didn't know where the suspect was) and no suspect had been seen entering the homes being searched by police.
Doesn't it seem like it would have been just as effective, and in accordance with our Fourth amendment rights, if instead of doing door to door searches of homes, the heavy police presence was limited to streets and public property? This would mean that if the suspect tried to move, he would be caught, and if anyone discovered him in or around their home they could call the police, as happened in the end. With a heavy police presence in the area the suspect could have been cornered in no time, as is what happened after the lockdown was lifted.
The concern is that innocent people are not supposed to be treated like criminals. With a search warrant police have the backing of the courts, and whoevers' property is being searched is informed of the reason. In these circumstances people were not informed of their rights, because their rights had been suspended, according to police they had none. It is easy to stomach that kind of behavior from the police in the wake of a terrorist attack, but we have to remember that the Fourth amendment protects us from the government. The next time a town is facing lockdown for an emergency situation, it will be too late to protest, because lots of men with big guns will be acting the same way we just said was okay last weekend. Maybe we will disagree that the situation is an emergency, but we won't have the ability to make that decision at the time. If every crime is treated as an emergency situation suspending Fourth amendment rights against unreasonable search and seizure, than the right will cease to exist. There are always crimes occurring all over the place, so any search could be justified if the police are the only ones with the information on the situation. It is coming to a scary day when police can order you out of your home without a warrant, point guns at you and your children screaming for you to keep your hands up, and the public just accepts it as necessary to protect us.
The point of objective laws is that they are always the same, so that a person knows in advance if they are violating the law. Likewise our rights are objective, so that no matter the circumstance, we will have protection from certain practices. An "emergency situation" is arbitrary, and could be used at any time the government sees it as serving their purposes. We should not have to give up our rights because of a terrorist attack or criminal activity in our vicinity. I think this situation proves that law enforcement and government went too far when they ignored the Fourth amendment rights of Watertown residents, and came up with no results. Only after the rights of innocent citizens were done being violated was the suspected terrorist found, and captured legally in a way that proved the earlier police force against law abiding civilians unnecessary and ineffective for the goal of capturing the bombing suspect. Right now is the time to have this conversation, before another emergency is declared and our rights are suspended again. A right is not something that can be suspended, and it exists whether or not the government recognizes it, or violates it. Don't give up essential liberty to obtain the facade of temporary safety.

Energy Conservation: An Examination of Energy Conservation Mechanisms As They Relate to School Districts in Region XI.
Kerns, Marilyn
This report attempts to supply information on energy conservation mechanisms that can be employed in schools to the public schools of Minnesota. The report begins by presenting guidelines for developing an energy conservation plan. The two models include the concept of Total Educational Energy Management as developed by the Colorado Department of Education, and a program for energy management developed by the Council of Educational Facility Planners which was instituted in Minneapolis in 1974. The report then examines methods available to districts for identifying excessive and unnecessary energy use in school buildings. The three methods examined include: (1) a computer simulation model (PSECS) developed by Educational Facilities laboratories; (2) the Mini-Audit System developed by the Minnesota Energy Agency; and (3) an extensive Maxi-Audit that can be performed by engineering firms. The third section of this report examines operational, maintenance and retrofitting measures that can be used by school districts to conserve energy. (Author/MR)

I do not know that glorious thing that can be exchanged for freedom. Even the flesh confinement that religions urge believers to espouse is measured basically in relation to sex (outside marriage), food (when you need to fast), lucidity (of thou shall neither hate nor kill) etcetera. But a long period of custody that divorces you from the daily sun, the moon at night, the rain, visitations, longtime friends and family members – leaving you absolutely with no idea of what time of the day or night it is – is indeed a different and dreaded experience.
With women (in the case of men, usually moved by sight); men (in the case of women usually smitten by attention) locked in a common room that leaves little privacy to the sanctity of either sex, and with plenty alcohol as willing companion, containing or endorsing the riotous feelings depends on the individual. May your loyalty never be put to test.
Beyond mere imaginations, I have been in the Big Brother House twice in the past, playing the game of confinement with fellow journalists (the first with a set of 14 from different countries in Africa, and the second with five others from Nigeria), albeit without a prize. And I can tell you for free, that one night, as in the case of the two experiences, was enough to understand the importance of freedom; even when you have plenty to eat and drink.
Yes, the house is indeed beautiful too, the colours endearing. The Jacuzzi, recycling its warm water invites one to royalty; the lawn, dotted with beautiful flowers makes for a garden of meditation; the early morning games and exercises reminded me of my days as Man o War cadet; the music, once played transformed me into the deluxe club mood. Yet, it is a customised studio that hosts one of the best reality shows in Africa.
In a digital age where we are indulged daily with news around the world; in a social media age that has brought people closer through audio visual chats; in this mobile telephone era where talk has become common and business-inclined, you can imagine how far-away and exiled one would feel without the cell phones, note books, laptops, watches and any other gadgets that could connect you to the outside world. We surrendered them all.
Being locked up with these relative strangers, you get to know them better (either by liking a habit or being irritated by one). But perhaps one night was too short to pick a quarrel; after all we weren't competing for a prize. But you go home with an impression of someone whom you think is either lousy, or lazy, or unkempt, or lacks decorum, or someone whose point of view you never agreed with. That way, impressions are created and alliances are formed.
I found friendship with James Chavula, Sam Banda, Chiku Kimani (all from East Africa); there was so much to learn from these guys who are great journalists in their own rights. Thobelo from South Africa made my day on the second occasion. The football enthusiast is moved by a passion to better the society through a child-development initiative. He introduced two books to me – 'Who Moved My Cheese?' by Ken Blanchard and Spencer Johnson and 'Breaking the Jewish Code' by Perry Stone. The guys from Nigeria I was already familiar with, and because we share the same political challenges, I leaned towards the strangers just to have a better understanding of other clans and relate their experiences with what obtains at home.
Big Brother thought I was politically-inclined. Well, I got into some political discussion with Thobelo and Niyi, prodding the former more about what an average South African thinks the government is not doing right. That I think may be the last thing a Nigerian citizen will consider an error against its government. I think that in Nigeria, we are in the eye of the storm.
Well, there was a lot of sharing! We had to cook and share meals, share a bathroom and share either one of the two bedrooms with beds like that of secondary school pupils.
But this was just a visit by journalists. The real show is one that takes the real contestants on a journey of three months where depression might likely lead to outburst that often gives whatever strategy of winning away.
This time, there is N45million as the total package for the eventual winner. It is not a game for the faint-hearted. As much as you don't want to lose the game, there is a kind of relief in the eyes of contestants when they are evicted. Confinement is no child's play. I was glad to leave after only one night on both occasions.

Traditional fault tolerant techniques such as hardware or time redundancy incur high overhead and are inefficient for checking arithmetic operations. Our objective is to study an alternative approach of adding new instructions to check arithmetic operations. These checking instructions either rely on error detecting code or calculate approximate results and consequently, consume much less execution time. To evaluate the effectiveness of such an approach we wish to modify several benchmarks to use checking instructions and run simulation experiments to find out their execution time and memory usage. However, the checking instructions are not included in the instruction set and as a result, are not supported by current architecture simulators. Therefore, another objective of this thesis is to develop a method for inserting new instructions in the Gem5 simulator and cross compiler. The insertion process is integrated into a software tool called Gtool. Gtool can add an error checking capability to C programs by using the new instructions.

A friend of mine once asked me if I tweet (haven't heard of Twitter yet)? Told her, do I look like a bird? And she just simply laughed at me and said, "No, what I mean is, do you have a Twitter account?" "Ahhh, ok, I don't have, but what is that?
Wikipedia defines Twitter as a free social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read each others' updates, known as tweets. The tweets or the message are text-based posts of up to 140 characters, displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to other users – known as followers – who have subscribed to them.
But why should we tweet? What for?
For some people tweeting is a way of connecting with friends and updating them about your life and vice versa – social messaging (social networking + instant messaging = social messaging).
But twitter has gone beyond as a social networking tool. In fact, in some countries twitter is widely used to bring out information, events and breaking news.
The first break on the Mumbai attack was on Twitter. Updates on natural disasters like storms, hurricanes, earthquakes and even fire are being monitored on Twitter.
Celebrities also used Twitter to keep their fans updated about them, about their movies, gigs, and even stand on issues.
Citizen journalists are finding Twitter a great tool in microblogging especially with the availability of mobile phones that provides connectivity to update blogs real time.
Politicians also used twitter. Updates go direct to their audience bypassing the mainstream media as the source of news.
Using the tool to also connect, a lot of mainstream media used Twitter to also pushed news content. Reporters, editors, TV and radio personalities use Twitter.
Is Twitter a boon or a bane to the media industry?
Twitter has been successful as a tool to push information. Some media outlets realized this and started using the tool to push and brand the information as sourced from them.
Twitter and other social networking tools like Facebook, Myspace, Multiply and others have absolutely changed the media landscape.
For me, the mainstream media needs to evolve and use these tools to its benefit. Yes it is true that Twitter is a great source of up-to-the-minute updates, but the question is, how will we know if the tweets are accurate?
This is where journalists come to the picture. Media report the news truthfully, accurately and fairly. Failure of media to do this job means its death. Media is accountable to its readers.
In Twitter, a person twitting an information to the world wide web is not accountable to anybody. In the Twitter world you believe tweets at your own risk.
Here comes the value of the journalists, who verifies, validates and checks accuracy of any information that breaks before reporting it with all fairness and presenting it with all the information valuable to the reader.
To me, media should not ignore these tools or fight against it. In fact, it should use these tools to enhance the delivery and value of news.
The extraordinary amount of news coverage the mainstream media

This is a companion post to Quaint Magazine's statement of solidarity.
Kat Dixon, the first of several women to come forward with information regarding their abuse at the hands of Gregory Sherl, has started a fundraising campaign to raise funds for Hope House, an organization that aids women and children in rebuilding their lives after escaping situations of domestic violence.
Kat, Kia and Donora, the brave women who came forward publicly with their experiences are hoping to match or exceed the amount raised for Sherl's personal treatment as a public declaration of solidarity for women who suffer at the hands of their partners world wide. Every year, more than 5 million women are victimized by their partners, and 1 in 4 women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime. Many do not survive.

Cauliflower has so many nutritional benefits, however, I never really enjoyed eating it. I tried cooked, raw, baked, but I still couldn't really enjoy this nutritious vegetable. I recently discovered to make a wonderful salad out of it. The trick is to blend the cauliflower so it becomes fully granulated. Also, there is a trick to get rid off the smell. The result is such a tasty, healthy and low calorie salad.
Here is the simple recipe.
– 1 head cauliflower
– 1 tablespoon tomato paste
– 2 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 bunch parsley, finely chopped
– 1 bunch green onion, finely chopped
– 1/2 bunch fresh mint, finely chopped
– 2 small pickling cucumbers, finely chopped
– Olive oil
– Lemon juice
– Salt, sumac and red pepper for seasoning
– Cut the cauliflower in small pieces and blend until fully granulated (until it gets sand like texture)
– In a medium pan, add some olive oil and the tomato paste. Bring to medium-low heat, stir a few times.
– Add the granulated cauliflower and minced garlic. Stir for a few minutes. Make sure the tomato paste is equally absorbed by the cauliflower. Transfer to a medium bowl.
– Add the chopped parsley, mint, green onion and the cucumber.
– Add olive oil, lemon juice and the seasoning to taste.
– Mix thoroughly.
Voila! Simple, delicious, yet nutritious.

Accepted: 16 March 2006
We present 3.6 m ESO telescope spectroscopic observations of the system of the two blue compact dwarf galaxies SBS 0335-052 W and SBS 0335-052 E. The oxygen abundance in SBS 0335-052W is , confirming that this galaxy is the most metal-deficient emission-line galaxy known. We find that the oxygen abundance in SBS 0335-052E varies from region to region in the range from 7.20 to 7.31, suggesting the presence of an abundance gradient over a spatial scale of 1 kpc. Signatures of early carbon-type Wolf-Rayet stars are detected in cluster #3 of SBS 0335-052 E, corresponding to the emission of 20 to 130 WC4 stars, depending on the adopted luminosity of a single WC4 star in the C iv λ4658 emission line.

text: How To Home Theater What Other Types of Discs Can You Play on a Blu-ray Player? Blu-ray players and playback of other disc formats Share Pin Email Print Robert Silva Home Theater Guides & Tutorials Basics Installing & Upgrading Tips & Tricks Key Concepts Cut The Cord by Robert Silva Robert Silva has written about audio, video, and home theater topics since 1998. Previously, Robert was an audio/video expert for About.com. Updated November 12, 2018 150 150 people found this article helpful To start, all Blu-ray Disc players play standard 2D Blu-ray Discs and many can also play 3D Blu-ray discs, but those aren't the only types of discs that they are compatible with. Other Types of Discs You Can Play on a Blu-ray Player Blu-ray player manufacturers have also included the ability for their units to playback standard DVDs, and this is expected to continue. This means that your current DVD library is playable on a Blu-ray Disc player. When you play a standard DVD in a Blu-ray Disc player, you can view it at standard DVD resolution or have the player upscale the DVD signal to 720p/1080i/1080p or even 4K mode (some Blu-ray Disc players provide 4K upscaling) that will be a better match for viewing on an HDTV or 4K Ultra HD TV. Also, almost all Blu-ray Disc players will play standard CDs/CD-R/RW discs, and some higher-end players are also compatible with HDCD, SACD, and DVD-Audio discs. Other Disc formats that may be playable on selected Blu-ray Disc players include MP3 CDs, DTS-CDs, JPEG Photo or Kodak Photo CDs, and AVCHD Discs. To find out if a specific Blu-ray player can play one, or more, of the above disc types, check the player's official online product page, or look in the user guide - there should be a page that lists (with format logos) all of the disc formats that the player is, and is not compatible with. A bonus feature available on selected Blu-ray Disc players is the ability to rip audio CDs to a USB flash drive (check user guide for details). As an additional note, when Blu-ray Players were first introduced in 2006-2007 there were two first generation players from Sony (BDP-S1) and Pioneer (BDP-HD1) that were not able to play CDs. How a Blu-ray Disc Player Can Play DVDs and CDs In order to play DVDs and CDs, a Blu-ray disc player houses two laser assemblies: One is a shorter wavelength "blue laser", which is required to read the smaller pits (where audio video information is stored) on Blu-ray Discs, and for DVDs and CDs, an adjustable focus longer wavelength "red laser assembly" is provided that can read the information stored on the larger pits used in DVDs and even larger pits used for audio CDs. When you insert a DVD or CD in a Blu-ray Disc player, it automatically detects the type of disc and makes the adjustments needed to play it back. If the disc is not compatible, the Blu-ray Disc player will either eject the disc or display a message on its front panel or the TV screen. The Ultra HD Blu-ray Factor Another disc format, Ultra HD Blu-ray, is also now in use. The Ultra HD Blu-ray format provides consumers with native 4K resolution content available on a disc-based format. However, this is not the same as a standard Blu-ray Disc player that may be able to provide 4K upscaling for DVDs and Blu-ray Discs. Although sharing a similar name, Ultra HD Blu-ray is a different format than standard Blu-ray. This means that Ultra HD Blu-ray Discs cannot be played on standard Blu-ray Disc players. If you want to play Ultra HD Blu-ray Discs, you need to a purchase an Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc player -- and, of course, a compatible 4K Ultra HD TV is also required to see the benefits. However, on the upside, Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc players can play standard 2D Blu-ray Discs (most also play 3D Blu-rays), DVDs, Music CDs, and some of the other disc formats discussed above. Also, even if you don't have an Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc player, so far, all Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc movie releases come packaged with a standard Blu-ray Disc copy. For now, play the standard Blu-ray now, and when you upgrade to an Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc player, just pop in the Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc. If you are ready to make the jump from a DVD player to a Blu-ray or Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Player, check out our periodically updated list of best Blu-ray and Ultra HD Blu-ray disc players Special Considerations For HD-DVD Player Owners One inquiry we receive from readers that own, or have run across a used HD-DVD player (HD-DVD was officially discontinued in 2008), is whether these players can also play standard DVDs and CDs. Just like Blu-ray Disc, players, with the exception of a few select first generation models, all HD-DVD players can also play DVDs, CDs, and some of the additional disc formats discussed above. HD-DVD players incorporate an adjustable focus longer wavelength "red laser assembly" that can read the information stored on the larger pits used on DVDs and audio CDs. For those of you that may still own a working HD-DVD player, even though you can no longer purchase new HD-DVD movies -- their ability to provide upscaled playback for DVDs, and, of course, CD playback as mentioned above, make them worth keeping around. Just keep in mind that you cannot play a Blu-ray Disc on an HD-DVD player and you can't play an HD-DVD on a Blu-ray Disc player. Also, HD-DVD players cannot play Ultra HD Blu-ray Discs. The Bottom Line Blu-ray Disc players are one of most versatile home entertainment devices available. In addition to Blu-ray Discs, they can play DVDs, CDs, and other disc formats, and, although not discussed in this article, most provide access to abundant internet streaming options. The only downside of a Blu-ray Disc player is that it cannot play Ultra HD format discs. On the other hand, no matter if you if you have a 720p, 1080p, or 4K Ultra HD, a Blu-ray Disc player will make both your Blu-ray Discs and DVDs looks as good as they can. Also, with the audio capabilities of Blu-ray Disc players, your CDs will sound great too. Continue Reading

Note: This post is part of a series of posts from Denise A. Harrison's article What happens When the Host Country Environment Changes originally posted in Compass Points in November 2004. Part One introduced the topic and discussed how Competition, Customers, Technology and the Economy will respond. In Part Two, we discussed The assumptions we made, Strategic Options, Evaluation of Strategic Options and Strategic Choice. In this part we will discuss What Actually Happened, In the End, Lessons Learned, and the Template for Evaluation Environmental Changes.
What actually happened?
Competitors aggressively pursued a lower pricing strategy to gain market share. Our customers remained loyal to us due to our rebate policy; however, over time they did negotiate lower prices with us as the competition continued to offer them better deals. The rebate gave us a window of time where we could develop better information about where the peso was headed and reap the benefits of the percentage of the savings that was not rebated to the customer. Still this strategy generated a significant amount of goodwill from customers because:
- The rebate effectively lowered what they paid to us – and they didn't have to ask. Many gained recognition for bringing a significant line item in under budget.
- Many customers thought the rebate concept exemplified a company with the business savvy to develop a strategy for an uncertain currency environment.
In the End
The peso continued to devalue and has stayed close to 9-10 pesos/$. We did make money during our rebate program and did not lose market share during the pricing wars that our competition introduced.
Lessons Learned
- Don't be greedy! If we had not offered the rebate we would have made a significant short term profit, but lost market share long term.
- When your business environment changes look at it strategically:
- Try to understand how it will impact all of the external forces
- Customers
- Competition
- Technology
- Suppliers
- Economy
- Regulatory
- It may not impact all of these areas, however it is good to take a look so that you will not be blind-sided.
- Try to understand how it will impact all of the external forces
- Develop options that allow for flexibility. Market changes may precipitate additional market changes. Try to keep from being locked in to the environment as it stands now.
- Think of ways to generate customer goodwill in a changing environment.
- Don't operate in a vacuum. Your competitors will respond – be prepared!
Template for Evaluating Environmental Changes
What is the change?
How does it impact the external forces:
Customers/Market Segments
What are the possible courses of action?
What are the benefits/risks of each of the above choices?
What is the best course of action?
How will you implement this strategy? What are the key objectives that support this strategy?
This is the final post in this series. Have you successfully outsourced and the host country's environment changed? Attend the Simplified Strategic Planning Seminar for more instruction on how to handle this subject as well as all other aspects of Simplified Strategic Planning.

During my lunch break today I read an article on the BBC Magazine website about being single; http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-20304302.
What I found interesting about this article was a) reading it from a non-single point of view and b) the variety of responses. All of them are happy being single but for different reasons.
The bit that really struck a cord was Sylvia Saunders comment;
"The essence of my objection to marriage is that I hold no interest in effectively adopting an adult male in order to play the mother role, which defines what many men expect from a marriage. If a man were to – without coaching – bring a coffee and croissant to me in bed on a Sunday morning, I might consider giving up my independence but no luck so far."
She has a point.
My first reaction to reading this article was to defend my own coupling, my second was to wonder how I act around my own single friends, my third was to do a double take at my relationship, and then there was the fourth.
Many of the people in this article chose to be single. Well, I chose to be in a relationship. I have always relished the idea of relationships and marriage. I can't say why, but other people have suggested reasons. Maybe it is because of my parents stable marriage that made me want that for myself. It has been suggested that it is my generation, but this just isn't true. A large proportion of my old school friends are not married, they're not even in relationships. I haven't just jumped into marriage because I want to be married, either. I was swept into this relationship with an intelligent, attractive, funny, kind man who I think I've secretly been in love with since I was 16. Going by the responses in this article, some of these people are waiting for what I have found. Good luck to them in finding it. Just because you reach a certain age doesn't mean that you won't find it.
So onto the next thought; my single friends. Interestingly, I have noticed that I can do the tiresome 'are you seeing anybody' with the male single friends but I don't with my female friends. What's that about? Perhaps, as Sylvia Saunders suggests, men require mothering and I am mothering the males around me who don't have the girlfriend or wife. I admit that I do sometimes worry about single males – their state of happiness, their state of clothes – in a way that I don't with females. I have been a single female, I have faith that women can thrive when single. Of course men can too, I've seen it with my own eyes, but this doesn't seem to have reached that particular part of my brain.
I do sometimes wonder if my single girlfriends miss the sex and warm comfort of a man that a relationship can bring. I never ask them. They all seem to be so busy with their work and social lives, I wonder if they get a chance to miss it.
I'm not particularly conscious of how I act around single people. I am more aware of how I act with my husband around friends who are effectively on their own (either their partner is at home or they are single). I am always careful to act as if my husband is my friend and nothing more. Other than the odd dig, there is no cuddling, giggling or smooching. Everyone else in the group is included in conversation and the only time I will cling to my hubby is if we are out and about and it's cold. After all, that's what he's there for.
John Hardy's comments made me quickly do a relationship MOT;
"I don't have to be part of a double act all the time. I say what I think instead of the sickening "We like x, don't we Sweetie?", with the mandatory affirmation. Shudder. I do what I want to do, when I want to do it, and how I want to do it. If I want company, I go out and get it. If I want to slam the door on the outside world, watch any old TV I like, eat pizza, drink beer, and just chill out – hey, what's to stop me? And when I see those poor little men rushing around pandering to their "better halves" and scampering home by curfew…"
I can't think of one instance where me and my hubby have done that double act example. It's always 'I like x, but he doesn't' or vice versa. He doesn't have to pander to me, there's certainly no curfew. All I ask is that he helps with the housework (which he does) and that he lets me know when he'll be home and that's only because I want to know when I can eat (food is important!).
Being able to watch any old TV I like sounds good though. I do miss that. On the other hand, we are always careful to give each other space. He does what he enjoys and I do what I enjoy, which usually means he goes out and I get the TV all to myself on a regular basis. Win-win.
I've realised that I'm making it sound like ours isn't a good relationship. Don't get me wrong, there is a lot of together time, a lot of cuddles, a lot of laughter and love but we also keep our own identities which I think is part of what makes our relationship so strong.
So, the fourth and final reaction; so what? What can be learnt from this. Is your main character single or in a relationship? How do they feel about it? How does it affect their lives?
I didn't make the decision which characters in my two current novels-in-progress were in relationships and which weren't. It just happened. One ended up with two men in her life but not in a relationship, one ended up dismissing the character I created just for her and prefers to be single, another fell in love with an older man (which completely threw me).
The comments in this article will prove very helpful in reminding myself what it means to be single as well as giving an insight into single experiences I have never had.
Do I miss being single? Sometimes. But I wouldn't be without my husband. Just like there are people out there in the world who sometimes yearn for the comforting warmth of a partner but wouldn't be without their constant freedom. We're all different; humans are just magic like that.

In Episode 87 of Rum Doings, Nick and John finally reconvene after a month's gap brought on by weddings, honeymoons and appendectomies. So it should come as little surprise that in an episode in which we don't discuss , we talk about weddings, honeymoons and appendectomies.
New sofas, pudding wines, and goodness us, what's this? The very first ever live Rum Doings consumption of a cream tea!
There's theological debate about contemporary Christian music and bishops, tales of our appendices, and screaming nurses. And then a heartfelt series of thank yous for the remarkable generosity shown by Rum Doings listeners for John's wedding. (Quick update: Debenhams have found lots of the missing items, and the throw appeared despite apparently not being paid for.)

Gender expectations are learned and culturally imposed through a variety of social mechanisms, including socialization, situational constraints, and commercialization of gender ideals.
Socialization theorists argue that an undetermined yet significant portion of male-female differences are products of the ways in which males and females are socialized.
Another powerful mechanism for conveying gender expectations is the commercialization of gender ideals—the process of introducing products into the market by using advertising and sales campaigns that promise consumers they will achieve masculine and feminine ideals if they buy and use the products.
Structural constraints the established and customary rules, policies, and day-to-day practices that affect a person's life chances channel people's behavior in desired directions.
Structural constraints push men and women into jobs that correspond with society's ideals for sex-appropriate work.

The hotly anticipated Doctor Who Christmas trailer is generating an incredible amount of buzz for the annual holiday special. The Doctor Who Christmas episodes have been a tradition since the new series began in 2005, but the amount of anticipation for this episode is unmatched, and likely to remain so for a while.
The upcoming special marks the last adventure of Matt Smith's eleventh Doctor and the introduction of Peter Capaldi's twelfth incarnation. This newly released Doctor Who Christmas Special trailer shows a great intergalactic battle raging between the Doctor and many of his bitterest foes, including the Daleks, the Silence and the Weeping Angels. This is a grand backdrop for a grand exit, and likely to keep fans on the edge of their seats.

The daughter of former president Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took to the stage at South By Southwest Interactive Tuesday to talk about very serious global issues. However, Chelsea Clinton began her speech stating: "…I'm obsessed with diarrhea" (video below). Of course, her obsession is not to be taken as a flippant or crude remark. Clinton is simply referring to the state of children's health around the world, which is a grave situation.
While, in the United States, a common illness such as diarrhea is easily overlooked as a short-term "nuisance", it can mean life or death for the youth of Third World nations. According to Chelsea Clinton 750,000 children worldwide are victims of dehydration due to diarrhea. For her, this notion is "unacceptable." A main focus of the former First Daughter's speech included technology's potential influence on changing world health conditions for the better.
She added that problems such as obesity and agricultural obstacles should be addressed by innovation in a technologically inclined society. For Chelsea Clinton, technology is something that has the power to influence individuals to make changes, yet there is lack of a "solutions hub" – and that is disturbing to her. Clinton implies there should be a collective of development of experts working together, with time and space to test strategies, seeing what works and what doesn't. Chelsea Clinton's "obsession" with such illnesses as diarrhea is almost a necessity in order change the upsetting current state of affairs.
The overall issue, as pointed out by Clinton, is not the lack of knowledge required to fix things globally. The problem lies with a lack of "transparency", saying: "…almost every challenge has been solved by someone somewhere…" Chelsea wants to galvanized the technological innovators around the world, in hopes of being able to compile data and information on previously tested and feasible methods of advancement in health and agriculture.
An example provided by Clinton, referencing a "data gap", is that necessary statistics are not being recorded, one being that two-thirds of all children born in the Congo are not reported. Such numbers could help with the overall study and impact of implemented technological methods.
Not all of Chelsea Clinton's speech was about her diarrhea obsession and grave world issues. She went on a bit of a tangent to talk about the lighthearted side of current technology. She took time to poke fun at her presidential family, claiming she taught her "parents how to text. How to charge their phones," which was apparently a "very mysterious thing for them [at one point]…"
Perhaps one of the most intriguing moments of Chelsea's time at the podium came when she was asked about running for office. While her traditional answer has always been a clear "no", it seems now she may not completely discount the thought. Perhaps she may be influenced by the notion that her friends, intelligent and successful, show no interest in political office. This is certainly a change from a few decades back when father Bill was coming up. At that time, the intellectual crowd of the 60s was much more interested in getting into the political game. Perhaps it is Chelsea Clinton's "obsession" with diarrhea and other world health issues that just might pull her into the realm of government affairs.

WASHINGTON (CBS.MW) -- Telecommunications stocks closed slightly higher on Friday, though gains subsided late in the day. Next week, investors will prepare for the first batch of second-quarter earnings reports.
The broadly based Nasdaq Telecommunications index, which sank 2.3 percent the day before, rose a scant 0.1 percent, with only eight of the 20 largest stocks advancing.
Ciena CIEN, -0.31% was the most noteworthy performer, jumping 5.3 percent to $3.39.
In the Amex Networking Index, however, nine of the 15 stocks rose. Again, gains were on the slight side.
The phone sector fared less well. Only six of the 12 largest publicly traded companies gained ground.
BellSouth climbed 32 cents at $25.94, while AT&T T, -1.23% added 19 cents to $14.37.
Nextel Communications NXTL dropped 24 cents to $25.29.
Also in the phone sector, MCI sued former CEO Bernie Ebbers for the return of $300 million that the company lent him before it was engulfed in a massive accounting scandal. See full story.

Summer Entertaining
After being indoors for so many months, patios and backyards really come alive on balmy summer days and nights.
(page 1 of 2)
Who doesn't appreciate a warm breeze while enjoying a cool drink? The next time you celebrate, consider making reservations at one of these patios, or—if you're feeling up to the task—throw a memorable soiree right in your own backyard.
Lola's Lakehouse, Lake Waconia
You'll feel like you're on vacation when you dine on the patio at Lola's Lakehouse, overlooking Lake Waconia. "It has a very cool vibe in a beautiful setting," says Dermot Cowley, owner (Cowley also owns Jake O'Connor's, O'Donovan's, and JJ Murphy's Pub). And while bands do sometimes play on a barge across from the patio, it's not as much of a wild party atmosphere as some waterfront decks.
If you choose to sit indoors—out of the direct sunlight—you can still enjoy the natural elements when the large glass garage doors are open, letting the breeze in. Popular summer items include the cast-iron seafood stew pot, seafood lasagna, and stone-fired pizza (boaters especially love the pizza as a convenient "to-go" option).
318 East Lake St., Waconia,
Psycho Suzi's, Northeast Minneapolis, Mississippi River
It's a tiki bar, yes, but it's also home to one of the most amazing patios in town. If you like the idea of sipping a fun, fruity, boozy cocktail out of a kitschy tiki totem glass out on a 7,000-foot patio overlooking the Mississippi, this is your place. Feel free to bring fido. Dogs are welcome on the patio. Dining at night is also divine; gas-powered tiki torches help take the chill out of the air.
1900 Marshall St. NE, Minneapolis,
The Bluefin Grille, Lake Superior
This is definitely one patio with a view, overlooking the dramatic moods of Lake Superior. The food is excellent and the atmosphere is sophisticated yet casual. The Grille is open to the public, not just exclusively to resort guests (although if you're staying at Bluefin, you'll want to check it out).
7192 West Highway 61, Tofte,
O'Donovan's Irish Pub, downtown Minneapolis
Before heading to a show at First Ave. or a Twins game at Target Field, enjoy a perfectly poured pint of Smithwick's, Guinness, or Harp on one of the largest outdoor patios in downtown Minneapolis. "We can seat 180 people outside," says owner Dermot Cowley. "People are surprised to hear that number, but on the Target Center side of our building, the pavement is almost 40-feet wide so we get to utilize a lot of that space." When the weather permits, the patio offers prime people watching.
700 1st Ave. N., Minneapolis, 55403,
Solera, downtown Minneapolis
On a summer evening, nothing beats chilling out on the Solera rooftop. Enjoy Movies on the Rooftop Sunday and Tuesday nights during the summer. This Spanish-inspired restaurant, located in the heart of the Minneapolis Theater District, attracts a hip, high-energy crowd dining on traditional and innovative tapas (small plates) and an excellent selection of beer and wine (try the sangria).
900 Hennepin Ave., Minneapolis,
Cheeky Monkey Deli, Cathedral Hill, St. Paul
Brunch, lunch, dinner, or a nice glass of wine just taste better when enjoyed outside on a nice summer day, something that regulars at Cheeky Monkey Deli—a "deli by day; bistro by night" in the Cathedral Hill neighborhood—know all too well. The environment is nice without being pretentious and the food is fresh, local, and seasonal. Try the pot roast sandwich, shrimp salad, or coconut cream pie.
525 Selby Ave., St. Paul, 55102,
JJ Murphy's Irish Pub, Blaine
The new kid on the Blaine block (JJ Murphy's just opened in March), this restaurant does not have an outdoor patio yet, says Dermot Cowley, owner, but it will by summer 2013. "We intend to build an outdoor bar and fireplace," he says. By the time it's fully remodeled, the patio will seat 150 people. "It's going to be one of the nicer patios around when it's done," Cowley comments.
10400 Baltimore St. NE, Blaine,
Jake O'Connor's Public House, Excelsior
The outdoor patio at Jake O'Connor's is the place to be during sandal season. If you want to watch the action on the street, sit on one side; if you want to have a private dining experience, sit on the other. Jake O'Connor's is known for excellent summer salads and an impressive wine selection.
200 Water St., Excelsior,
