Every week we get Down & Dirty, in which Nozlee Samadzadeh breaks down our favorite seasonal fruits, vegetables, and more by the numbers.
Spring is finally here and so is its lovely green herald, asparagus -- our vegetable of the week. We're just starting to see them at the Greenmarket here in New York City, although the delicate, purple-topped spears tied into fat bundles sell out fast.
1. In the Garden: Have you ever seen an asparagus plant? Fully grown they look like tall ferns with impossibly thin stalks, swaying in the wind. They're not the easiest to grow: an asparagus root, called a "crown," takes 3-4 years to mature enough to produce healthy asparagus stalks (you know it's ready to harvest when the plant's shoots are about finger-size in thickness -- if you want thicker spears, wait another season). That's a big investment, but once a plant is established it will produce asparagus every spring for up to 20 years -- so not a true perennial, but it might as well be!
The part of the asparagus that we eat is actually the baby shoot of the plant. Harvesting them is easy: just cut or snap off each spear when it gets to 8-10 inches tall (wait any longer and the stems will start to get woody). Don't cut too deep, though, or you might harm other buds in the asparagus crown that will send up their own shoots. Asparagus has a short season, but they're prolific plants: in warm weather, they can grow an inch per hour! Harvesting in the cooler mornings is best, before the heat of the day sets new spears shooting up (that you might be tempted to harvest before their prime).
At the end of the season (or when the asparagus crowns run out of new buds to send up as shoots), let the plants "go to seed" -- ignore them and let their tall ferniness go unchecked. Letting the plants develop flowers and then seeds actually strengthens the crowns in preparation for winter. You can cut down the ferns once fall comes around, and then the waiting game starts until next spring!
2. Varieties: Though there are about 300 plant varieties, the three most common types of asparagus are green, white, and purple. White asparagus is actually just green asparagus that has been shielded from the sun. Mounding soil over the plants or growing them in the dark inhibits the development of chlorophyll, which some say makes for a more delicately flavored vegetable. Purple asparagus, on the other hand, is a manmade hybrid developed in Italy with an especially sweet taste.
3. In the Kitchen: Asparagus isn't a fussy vegetable -- just snap off or shave the bottom of the stems and you're done. (Be sure to save the stems for stock!) The preparations of asparagus are as delicious as they are diverse:
• Slaw is the perfect way to use sweet early-season asparagus. Bonus: no cooking required!• Flash broil them in the oven with olive oil and smoked paprika for crispy tops and tender stalks.• Saute them in a pan with butter -- we recommended topping the stalks with shallots, chile, and lemon or pancetta and breadcrumbs.• Dip the stalks in feather-light batter and deep fry for crispy tempura.• Steam or blanch spears before folding into risotto, serving alongside fried Meyer lemons, or pureeing into soup.
You can even pickle them, like Rick's Picks does. Whatever you do, don't can them -- asparagus stalks are sweet sunshine in a skinny green container, spring's gift to us after a long winter. Why would you turn them into mush?
Of course, no discussion of asparagus is complete without their qualities...post-digestion. Asparagus is known to cause an unpleasant, sulphurous smell in the asparagus eater's urine -- but as this study at the Monell Chemical Senses Center proved, only some people produce the odor, and only some people can smell it! Isn't it strange to think that you can produce the sulphurous smell but never know that you do?
In any case, it's nothing to dwell on for too long! Asparagus is a vegetable to get your fill of now -- I polish off whole platefuls every spring knowing I won't have it again for a while. Eating seasonally can be bittersweet, but it sure is delicious.

What's New
Blanchard Pro Font by Canada Type
Blanchard is a revival and elaborate extension of Muriel, a 1950 metal face made by Joan Trochut-Blanchard for the Fonderie Typographique Franaise, that was published simultaneously by the Spanish Gans foundry under the name Juventud.
Blanchard is a script that embodies the post-war narrow decorative aesthetic that would become the instantly recognizable feature of that era's design. Its high ascenders corners make it the tuxedo of fonts, with slight and casual angles gradually revealing a trustworthy confidante, and sharp corners signaling a most expressive ally. Font. James Font.
This digital version updates the original metal shapes to work within today's design tools and designer needs. Some of the questionable metal shapes were optimized, plenty of alternates were added, and as many as five ending forms were built for most lowercase letters. Overall, this is one of the most useful packages for book cover, magazine and packaging design.
Blanchard is available in all popular formats. Blanchard Pro combines all five fonts into a single one that makes use of OpenType's cross-platform compatibility and programs that support OT's fine typography features.

The 17th Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) wrapped yesterday (Oct 13) with a record of more than 221,000 admissions.
The two New Currents awards went to Maryam Najafi's Lebanese-Canadian film Kayan [pictured] and Nawapol Thamrongrattanarit's Thai film 36 which also picked up the FIPRESCI Award. The Flash Forward award went to Zdenek Jirasky's Czech film Flower Buds.
On the morning of the closing ceremony, the New Currents jury chairperson Bela Tarr explained they lauded both their awardees for inventive and versatile cinematic language. They also gave a Special Mention to Indian director Nitin Kakkar's Filmistaan saying: "we are not allergic to having a simple, good time at the movies."
Flash Forward jury head Arturo Ripstein said simply that theirs was a unanimous decision to award Flower Buds, a film about a family living in a border town. "The justification is that we thought it was the best!" he said. (See below for a full list of awardees.)
Buzz films at this year's BIFF included films of political and/or social interest, such as dissident torture film National Security, Korean-Japanese repatriated to North Korea story Our Homeland, and the North Korea/Belgium/UK co-production Comrade Kim Goes Flying.
The fest screened 304 films including 93 world and 39 international premieres with a record 221,002 admissions as of the morning of the closing ceremony. The festival reports it had 11,519 accredited guests, including 2,357 accredited press members.
Festival director Lee Yong-Kwan said: "We have passed 200,000 admissions, but what we see as an accomplishment is the fact that despite all those cinema-goers coming and going, they and the festival have matured to the point that everything ran smoothly. We worked together well, and I can say we have a world-class film-viewing culture in Busan."
He also remarked upon the success of the Asian Film Market and, proving the rumor mill wrong, stated that the market has no plans to move from the BEXCO to the Busan Cinema Center next year.
BIFF wrapped with closing film Television, directed by Bangladesh's Mostofa Farooki. As a recipient of the fest's Asian Cinema Fund (ACF), Lee noted it was an example of how the fest's support will go to parts of Asia where it is most needed. A total of 14 ACF recipients screened at BIFF this year, five of which won awards.
Nervously presenting his film in front of the outdoor audience of thousands at the Busan Cinema Center, Farooki said: "This honour comes at the right time. Around the world, they say television is killing cinema but in Bangladesh it happened the other way around. A lot of young filmmakers making cable TV films tried our hand at storytelling that way - not just emulating Bollywood films. Hopefully with this BIFF, you will see more Bangladesh films in the next few years, too."

Player, coach participate on all-star team at PSP Dallas Open
March 16, 2014 | Forney, Texas
Snow was still on the ground in Virginia as Liberty University paintball Head Coach Todd Hoglund drove back from the March 14-16 Paintball Sports Promotion (PSP) Dallas Open in Forney, Texas on Monday.
For the second straight year, Hoglund headed south to serve as coach of the National Collegiate Paintball Association (NCPA) All-Stars, the only collegiate team in an open tournament with more than 100 entries from around the country.
Liberty freshman Christian Campbell joined Hoglund on the journey and played on the Dorito side on the all-star team that also featured four players from North Carolina State and one each from Auburn, North Texas, South Dakota, Temple, and Wisconsin-Whitewater.
"The All-Star team was a throw-together of college players to showcase what college talent can do in a different league," Hoglund said, noting Campbell, who arrived at Liberty with some experience, has rapidly developed his skills since joining the Flames. "He played really well. He actually kept the team in the game by making some big moves and winning a one-on-one."
The NCPA All-Stars went 2-2 in their four matches and placed 23rd out of 40 teams in the D3 RaceTo-4 division. Houston Zone defeated Chicago Warped in the championship match.
"Being around professional teams and watching them play on the Dallas Layout which they're going to be using at (NCPA) nationals should help prepare us for (the tournament)," Hoglund said.
Liberty, still ranked No. 1 by the NCPA, ahead of the University of Texas and Texas A&M and 60 other Class AA programs, is the only team in the country with five lines of five players.
The Flames will conclude their regular season by taking two lines to the Mid-South Coastal Conference No. 4. Tournament at East Carolina University on March 29 before returning to the NCPA National Championships, April 11-13 in Lakeland, Fla., with one Class A team and as many as three Class AA lines.
"We're probably predicted to be in the top five at nationals," Hoglund said, noting Florida Gulf Coast University, which defeated the Flames in last year's opening round, is also one of the favorites along with the University of Florida and Cal State-Long Beach.

Notes from Scottish Canoe Exhibition - 29 October 2005
Fitting out an Open Canoe, given by by Claire Knifton http://cknifton.co.uk
Her canoe is a Wynona Prospector-15 - the best in her opinion, wouldn't swap it [it was kitted for one]
Bow/stern Loops: Drill clear through the hull, at least 50mm (2") from any edge and use 8-11mm loop. These are needed for carrying, broach recovery, etc. without the clearance many loops will pull out, as do fastened-in bow/stern pieces
Swin Tails: add a 2m doubled tape (lark's foot knot) to the bow/stern loops for swimmers to hang onto (i.e. when you go and get them). Otherwise they grab your gunwhale making the boat un-steerable and possibly tipping you in! (and they are easier than painters to hold)
Swim line: A light weight floating line, stowed in a throw bag, one each end, with a 0.5m clean end lying out for grabbing as you take a swim(i.e. self recovery). The other (bag) end is clipped to the bow/stern loop and the bag is also strapped down. The line colour should be your unique emergency colour [so you grab the right one]. The length should be sufficient for 75% of river width, so you can swim to shore, stand up and swing boat back to shore before the boat, still in main stream, drags the line out of your hands. The line is sized for convenient handling (6-8mm) rather than use as a recovery rope.
Keep the boat clean: Don't have loose bits of tat hanging around as trip and entanglement hazards. It is not good for ease of trimming either. Clean (wash out) the grit and bits from the boat suitably often as airbags will get holes from the entrapped grit.
Lashing points: If you use P-clips, don't fasten them to the side of the gunwhale. It might be easy to do but they pull out easily. Fasten them under the gunwhale so that the fastening has a side pull. [or see http://www.songofthepaddle.co.uk/for...hread.php?t=11]
Protect airbags: Protect airbags from the sun - because the heating effect can cause them to pop.
Use a piece of carrimat between the airbag and the tie downs as this provides protection from both sun and spikes (and dogs paws).
Fully lash/tie in your airbags. They can easily squeeze out under full water flow if not fully lashed in. (The cooling water reduces the internal pressure and they are pneumatically compressible as well!)
Claire uses a large airbag reaching all the way to the 'front' seat, and then has a large D-ring on the floor to shorten the airbag when paddling double (letting some air out).
A lorry inner tube can always be used as a cheap alternative, though harder to pump up.
Protect the underside of the airbag from grit.
When trying to lash the front of the airbag into the bow, use a nice simple tie-wrap to reach through the bow tie hole, through that awkward to reach front airbag fastening, and out the other side. Cheap and easy!
An easy sail clamp: The sail mast is formed from a split poling pole. The part with the button is the mast. The one with the hole (for the button) is boom. The mast clamp is two pieces of wood (30-35mm wide, 15-20mm thick, length = seat depth + 20mm + 40mm). These clamp over/under the seat with coach bolt & wing nuts, and have a mast hole through. A simple foot plate can be used if needed. It can even be bonded in.
The sail is arab dhow style, the mast goes up a sleeve on one edge, with the boom being at an angle more like a Y, up at a diagonal. The boom fits in a sleeve and with a tension string using the pole's button hole. The last corner of the sail has the control string ('sheet') for the sail. [you hold this ]
Kneeling thwarts: make sure they are at the right height. You should be able to get your feet out easily for simple tumbles in rapids. Make sure the twart is not so strong that you can't break out of it if the water flow collapses the bottom of the boat onto your foot. Entrapment is a possibility.
Hip blocks: if you find you are of slight build relative to the boat & gear, then add a hip block at the end of your seat/thwart to allow some lean/pressure, especially for ends of kneelers. The block can have a wedge angle on it for comfort.
Packing & pack leash: Use a large rucksac/drybag to hold all those smaller drybags and bits. It keeps the kit together and is easier to move around for trim.
For the leash use a 3x long piece of line and then do endless slip knots. This gives a nice grippy lanyard effect, with the ability to quickly extend the line when needed. A single carabiner at the end allows easy clipping to the boat. Most recommend that gear should not be tied hard into the boat, but on a short lead so the boat can be emptied and righted independantly of the gear. [the gear can be tied together for stability, just not to the boat]
The same 3x method can be used for the lining bridle, it gives lots of attachment points when linked under the boat between thwart attachment points.
Paddle Carry: When in a group, it is easy to thread a paddle shaft through each bow/stern loop and have two persons at each end. This lightens the load greatly and you can carry much further. It is more efficient.

Dead Poets Society' THE BONE ASYLUM is out now!
We began this journey a long time ago, and many things have changed. This album took
the better part of 12 years to complete. Now, don't envision us chained to our instruments
for 4,384 days. We did a lot in those 12 years. We toured for the last album, we got married,
bought a house and settled into domesticity. We worked on music now and then, but life
has this strange way of getting between you and the things you really ought to be doing.
We also had a very grand vision for this album. Maybe too grand. It was our original
intention to create the music in conjunction with a comic book. The comic would tell the
story in between the songs, and the songs would enhance the themes in the comic.
In the end, trying to find artists, production questions, and other concerns sidetracked us
until the point that we realized we had two choices: put the music out without the comic,
or put the music onto a shelf somewhere in our archives and never talk about it again. We
decided to put the comic on hold and release the music.
If it becomes possible in the future, we'll release the comic with art to match. For now,
we've included the script in these liner notes for your reading pleasure. There are select
images included, mostly from the appropriate single covers, and the script refers to the
songs when they come into the story.
This project can be enjoyed one of several ways. Either you may listen to the music and
disregard this script, you may disregard the music and just read, or you may listen and read
together. Think of it as a follow-along book for grownups.
The story is really three stories. It takes place in three countries, three eras. The first story
is that of Orpheus and Eurydice, and it takes place in Ancient Greece. The second takes
place in Europe in the Victorian era, where John Orpheus, an Englishman, loses his wife
Elizabeth in childbirth. The final piece of the story takes place in modern-day America,

In Kutna Hora, an ossuary near Prague, generations of residents have assembled the bones

outsider, the people who began this practice saw it as a way to honor their dead.
During the last 12 years, we've had plenty of time to honor our own dead. Wa's
aunt Connie died in 2004. In 2008, his mom, Nola Jean, got a third bout of cancer and
finally succumbed to it three days before Thanksgiving, 2009. In her grief, Nola's sister

Over the past five years, models of all sizes have poured out of the Ford development center in Dearborn, Mich. Now the company has broadened its sights even more, aiming squarely at Toyota's lead in high-efficiency hybrid automobiles and Nissan's early entry in electric vehicles.
Over the past month, Michigan's most successful automobile company put the resulting products in our driveway for short loans. As the Chinese pistache trees exploded in color in downtown Los Altos, we drove the 2013 C-Max Hybrid that is ready to go wheel-to-wheel with the Toyota Prius, and the 2013 Ford Focus Electric that will go up against the Nissan Leaf. Both vehicles will be impressive contenders for car-of-the-year honors at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January.
C-Max Hybrid
The C-Max Hybrid is based on the high-hatch C-Max that Ford has been successfully selling in Europe as a gasoline and diesel model. In the U.S., Ford will sell the C-Max in its hybrid form only, making a deliberate bid to challenge Prius for dominance in the full-hybrid marketplace.
Our week with the car confirms what other car reviewers have said: The C-Max is a real car, with no limitations to be excused just because it's a fuel-efficient hybrid.
And its real-car performance and handling is a very good thing, assuring us that as the world moves away from the high-power and high-emission automobiles of yesterday and today, enthusiast drivers will still be able to enjoy the fun of feeling connected with the car and road while driving rather than just turning on and tuning out while being transported to a destination. It's also nice to know that the full-hybrid marketplace won't be dependent on just one manufacturer any more.
The C-Max is a hard car to categorize. Although these high-roofline five-doors are all the rage in Europe, with their roomy interiors and substantial hauling capacity, manufacturers are only beginning to believe these mini-minivans will find a place in the hearts of Americans. Nevertheless, Toyota has done the world a service by making the ugly duckling look desirable to people who want to show their environmental awareness. Feeling the necessity to offer the same large-capacity on a small footprint, Ford believes it has permission to offer the same profile – and we like the C-Max styling more than that of the Prius.
What we like even more than the looks, however, is that Ford is introducing a European handling experience with the C-Max. In our book, that puts it several streets beyond the Prius for responsive driving pleasure.
In addition, the newest Ford hybrid drivetrain promises high fuel efficiency in both city and highway driving, and claims the edge over the Prius with its rating of 47 mpg on both city and highway. There is some controversy in the auto press about whether that's really achievable – most reviewers report test results between 42 and 45 mpg – but because that's twice what many sedans are delivering today, we're not going to split hairs.
Another good thing for Ford is that the company has responded rapidly to complaints about its new MyTouch interface with cabin controls and the infotainment system, and we didn't find the version in the C-Max any more difficult to use than systems in other vehicles we've tested.
Our bottom line here is that anyone thinking about a Prius V should cross-shop the Ford C-Max before signing up at the Toyota dealer. If you're in that group, be confident that you can make your decision on the peripheral factors of styling, dealer service and so forth, assured that the fundamentals are every bit as good as the Prius.
Ford Focus Electric
While most manufacturers are only poking a toe in the water of full-electric vehicles, Ford has chosen to wade right in with the Ford Focus Electric. Well, at least up to its waist.
The Ford Focus Electric is still more a cutting-edge alternative vehicle – not quite ready for prime time. It will be sold only in California and New York in 2013 as the company slowly ramps up production and, we suspect, assesses how soon demand is likely to materialize for this alternative approach to auto transportation.
The advantages are obvious: equivalent fuel efficiency well above any internal combustion or hybrid vehicle with zero operating emissions. But the disadvantages are equally obvious: a range and speed that limit the car to urban areas only.
Built on the standard Ford Focus platform, with the new signature Ford grille outline copied from Aston Martin while it was still in the Ford stable, this car has one advantage over the Nissan Leaf right out of the garage: It isn't weird-looking.
Even better, it doesn't feel tentative in its steering and handling. It actually drives like a real car, just with the soundtrack turned off. In terms of driving experience and practical utility for hauling people and things from home to the village to the office to the restaurant or theater and back home, its owners will sacrifice nothing in driving utility. The cargo space is a bit limited by the large battery pack, but that's the trade-off for the extra range in this EV.
The approximately 75-mile driving range on one charge will be more than adequate for running daily errands. And though it does take up to 10 hours to recharge the batteries using a standard outlet and the 120v plug-in attachment tucked in the back of the car, at a 240v charging station – nearly all EV owners will install one in their garage for approximately $1,500 – a full charge can be achieved in about four hours.
A good, simple feature on the car is the LED light around the external filler plug, which illuminates at four levels to indicate when the car is charging and when it's full.
On the other hand, the plethora of driver assistance messages, even with the in-car tutorials, will take some learning. We were dismayed to learn, for example, as we drove out of the garage the first time that we needed to "Return home immediately." The helpful engineers suggested that the previous reviewers had programmed "Home" to their home GPS location in the North Bay, nearly out of range from Los Altos with even a full charge.
Finally, infrastructure is starting to catch up to these cars. There are parking garages and lots on the Peninsula with 240v charging stations that take credit cards. They're part of the landscaping in the new Packard Foundation parking lot in Los Altos, Palo Alto has them in every parking garage, and Google and other companies in Mountain View have them available for employees and visitors.
But one can still suffer range anxiety with a Focus EV driving range of 75 miles between charges and speed anxiety in freeway traffic with a top speed of 84 mph. The driver would think twice about trips beyond the Peninsula.
The price on this car is getting closer to practical when factoring in the $10,000 combined federal and state rebates against the $39,000 dealer price. The premium over a high-mpg gasoline car means that you won't break even for about five years at current gas prices. But sometimes it's not about money; it's about helping the environment and reducing the country's dependence on oil.
For our bottom line, Ford is introducing two very desirable electrified cars in that sweet spot in the marketplace between $25,000 and $30,000. Granted, they're smaller than the big American cars we've known. But with little hope of gas dropping to $3 per gallon and global warming now an accepted fact, we should get used to the new world of personal transportation.

Another large business spin-off has hit the government market, this time with Alcatel-Lucent signing a deal to sell its federal business, LGS Innovations LLC, to an investor group.
The private equity group Madison Dearborn Partners, along with others including CoVant, will acquire LGS for $200 million. CoVant is the private equity group led by Joseph Kampf. It also owns A-T Solutions.
Alcatel-Lucent is in the midst of a transformation strategy it calls the The Shift Plan, and divesting LGS is part of a move to reposition the company as a specialist in IP networking and ultra-broadband access.
The company is making divestments and other moves to shed about $1.4 billion in costs by 2015 while making other investments to raise the same amount in revenue, according Alcatel-Lucent.
The deal with the Madison Dearborn group is all cash, with $100 million being paid at closing, and the final payment will be based on 2014 results. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the first quarter, subject to the usual regulatory approvals.
LGS Innovations provides secure networking, satellite communications, VoIP, optical routers and other solutions for the U.S. national security, defense, and advanced research communities. The company's history stretches back 60 years, and includes portions that were once part of Bell Labs under the pre-breakup AT&T. Bell Labs Innovations is the company's tag line.
The company's management team, led by CEO Kevin Kelly, remains at the helm of the company, which operated as an independent entity because Alcatel-Lucent is a foreign-owned company.
Kelly said that while LGS operated as an independent company the divestiture will provide more freedom for the company in the kind of business and markets it pursues.
While details are yet to be worked out, the expectation is that Madison Dearborn and CoVant will use LGS as a platform for acquisitions, Kelly said.
A particular target will be companies that can take LGS's technologies and bring them to new markets such as public safety, state and local, foreign governments and large enterprises.
For example, first responders have a need to hardened communications gear that use commercial cellular networks. LGS builds that kind of technology for the U.S. military.
"That's an area where we have products and expertise but we don't practice in the first responder community," Kelly said.
So a company that makes radios or antennas or other technologies for first responders and has the customers relationships would be a good acquisition target, he said.
Ironically, LGS will also be able to work more closely on opportunities with Alcatel-Lucent once they separate. Because of restrictions on their relationship because of the foreign-ownership by Alcatel-Lucent, LGS could not share much of the technology it was developing.
But if both companies are independent with separate ownership, cooperating on projects will be easier, which could open opportunities for LGS to work with foreign governments, he said.
Being acquired by private equity also was attractive by LGS because it allows them to continue to build on their technologies and not work on integrating their technologies with the offerings of the acquiring company, Kelly said.
"This is about the ability to invest in our technologies," he said.

Twitter Inc: An Ideal Example of Irrational Exuberance
Whether you're a fan of Twitter or not, there's no denying the recently announced deal with advertising giant Omnicom Group was a whopper. The two longtime partners inked an agreement worth over $200 million to Twitter, and as the last couple days have demonstrated, investors are ecstatic.
The question is whether or not the Omnicom deal warrants Twitter's 12% jump in share price since the news broke on Tuesday afternoon? Or, is the recent stock price rally more of the same irrational exuberance we saw following Twitter's IPO late last year? You may recall, after Twitter set a $26 a share initial offering price, investors subsequently ran its stock price up over 70% the first day, and eventually as high as $74.73 a share, before reality finally set in.
The deal
When Twitter spent $350 million for the mobile advertising platform MoPub last September, the deal with Omnicom was exactly what it had in mind. The objective of MoPub is to help clients better monetize their mobile advertising efforts, and with nearly 80% of Twitter's 2014 Q1 advertising revenues of $226 million coming from mobile, MoPub was a no-brainer. Clearly, that's what Omnicom thinks, too.
The deal is worth $230 million to Twitter and will incorporate Omnicom's ad buying unit with MoPub. That's significant revenue considering Twitter's guidance for all of 2014 is in the $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion range. But the $230 million is a two-year deal, meaning Twitter should see about slightly less than a 10% jump in annual revenue from the Omnicom partnership. Nothing to sneeze at, but not quite worth investor euphoria, either.
From Omnicom's perspective, according to one of its division execs, the deal with Twitter will "drive better pricing." Great news for Omnicom, but not so much for Twitter. Even as the undisputed leader of all things social Facebook continues to charge its advertising clients more, Twitter's locking in rates with one of its biggest clients for two years.
Irrational exuberance
Most credit former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan with coining the phrase "irrational exuberance." Not coincidentally, Greenspan's use of irrational exuberance came on the front end of the dot-com bubble, when irrational investors ruled the day. Essentially, it can be described as investors foregoing fundamental analysis and risk assessment in favor of stocks that are the "flavor of the month." As Twitter showed us following its IPO, there are no shortage of investors exercising their right to act with irrational exuberance.
Since the announcement of the Omnicom partnership, Twitter's stock price has been driven less by the revenues the deal would bring, and more by investors who've simply been chomping at the bit for any piece of good news to justify their love of tweeting. That's not a recipe for a long-term investment success, to say the least.
A dose of reality
It's taken a while, but Facebook stock is slowly but surely gaining some traction. The difference between Facebook's steady share price rise and Twitter's 12% pop is there are tangible reasons to consider the former. For example, Twitter reported a 25% increase in monthly average users (MAUs). Not bad, but a figure that's slowing and has precipitated concerns over Twitter's growth. Facebook, despite being five times larger based on MAUs and 10 times larger based on sales, still grew another 15%, to 1.28 billion active users.
Facebook really impresses compared to Twitter where it counts: sales. Sure, Twitter increased advertising revenues 125% compared to Q1 of 2013, something you'd expect from an early stage growth company. Facebook's ad revenues also grew, a staggering 82% compared to the year-ago period. And let's not forget Facebook's concerted efforts to generate additional gaming revenue following its $2 billion Oculus deal, and the shout out to app developers at the recent F8 developer's conference.
Final Foolish thoughts
The reason Greenspan's irrational exuberance phrase is now part of the financial industry's lexicon is it explains stock price jumps like Twitter's so perfectly. Feeling a little better after the Omnicom deal? Sure, it was a nice win for an upstart company, and its shareholders, in dire need of some positive news. But the bottom line is there's little to no rational argument for Twitter as an investment at these levels, especially with an alternative like Facebook right next door.

An ISMN (International Standard Music Number) | The ISMN is assigned to | The ISMN is not assigned to | The ISMN is printed | ISMN and ISBN | ISMN and ISSN | A new ISMN is required when | ISMN and EAN code | International cooperation | The Estonian ISMN Agency
Apply the ISMN number here: Publisher Portal
What is a Publiseher Portal?
Terms of Use for DIGAR Publisher Portal
An ISMN (International Standard Music Number) is an international notated music standard number which from 1 January 2008 consists of 13 digits. The capitalised abbreviation ISMN is followed by the prefix 979-0, which identifies music industry, and the core 8-digit number.
Example: ISMN 979-0-54001-000-3
979 - 0
Publisher identifier
Notated music identifier
Check number
An eye- readable notated music EAN number below the barcode is identical to the 13-digit ISMN (printed with no hyphens). For notated music publications issued after 1 January 2008, an eye-readable 13-digit ISMN, the parts of which are correctly separated with hyphens, has to be printed above the back cover barcode.
For a more detailed description of the changes in the ISMN system, please review the English language guidelines at http://ismn-international.org/download/GuidelinesGeneral.pdf
The ISMN allows quick and exact identification of printed music in databases and their registering in libraries, and is applied in music trade, in accounting of music publishers etc. The ISMN is granted to every sheet of a music composition issued separately.
The ISMN is assigned to all printed music (in print or electronic format) including
- scores,
- vocal scores,
- separately available parts of scores,
- authors' select collections (anthologies),
- printed music sets, when the audio medium and the music composition form an integral whole and the audio medium is one of the parts of the composition,
- song books,
- microform music publications (microfilms and cards),
- Braille (for the blind) music publications.
- sound recordings,
- video recordings
- books on music containing examples of printed music (ISBN)
music journals and series (ISSN), except for the printed music published as individual parts of series.
The ISMN is printed on the back of a score or a part, or at the bottom of the first page of a single sheet music. The ISMN can be printed together with copyright data. The publisher is responsible for the correctness of the ISMN.
It is recommended that the ISMN numbers assigned to constituent parts of an anthology be printed on the back of the title page in a common list of ISMN numbers and the titles of the parts.
The ISMN is printed on each individual part of the anthology.
ISMN and ISBN
When it is difficult to identify whether the item is a sheet music publication or a book (illustrated albums with an extensive textual part, song books, anthems), both the ISBN and the ISMN can be printed on the publication. If the publisher uses only one standard number, then in case of doubt the ISMN is preferable.
ISMN and ISSN
A series of printed music is granted the ISSN (which remains unchangeable until the title of the series is altered); and each separate part of the series obtains an individual ISMN.
- the text or music is changed, except for minor corrections, e.g. misprints;
- the text as an integral part of a music composition is changed in comparison with the previous edition;
- the translation of the text is amended, modified or removed, even if the music remains unchanged;
- the size of a composition is considerably changed (e.g. score, miniature score, or study score).
ISMN and EAN code
The basis for the barcode of printed music is ISMN.
The Estonian ISMN Agency mediates the contact information about Estonian publishers for "Music Publisher's International ISMN Directory" issued by the International ISMN Agency.
The Estonian ISMN Agency provides Estonian music publishers with new publisher identifiers and gives out ISMN numbers to printed music. The service is free of charge.

An Australian tourist is missing after getting into trouble while swimming downstream from a dam near Taupo.
The man, in his 20s, went for a swim in the area known as the Full James Rapids, downstream from the Aratiatia Dam on the Waikato River, police said on Wednesday evening.
He started calling for help. A female companion ran to the riverbank but he disappeared from view.
Police were called about 6.15pm.
A jetboat, jetski and inflatable are searching the river.
Police spokeswoman Kim Perks told NZ Newswire the search would continue on Wednesday night for as long as realistically possible.
She would not say where in Australia the man was from while his next of kin were being contacted.
The gates of the Aratiatia Dam, about 14km downstream from Lake Taupo, are opened several times a day to create a temporary but spectacular rapids.
The last opening each day is at 4pm, which meant the rapids would have died down by the time the man went swimming.
It was not known if the man was a strong swimmer, Ms Perks said.

Victoria Police say an error was made in the collation of material used in a speech by Chief Commissioner Ken Lay, following claims it could lead to the mistrial of an accused rapist.
The Age reports the state's most senior police officer may have seriously compromised the county court trial of a man accused of raping and assaulting his former partner, by giving a graphic, unproven account of the alleged incident before the matter was to be heard in court.
The potentially prejudicial comments were made in a speech to a White Ribbon Day breakfast on November 23, the newspaper said.
"It is apparent that an error was made in the collation of material for this speech," Victoria Police said in a statement issued on Sunday.
"The CCP (Chief Commissioner of Police) will be writing to the chief judge to explain how this occurred and to apologise.
"As this matter is still before the courts, we will not be commenting further."

1921 has been a rough year for the characters of HBO's period drama Boardwalk Empire. After ending season 1 on a bit of a high, season 2 has been something of a downward spiral for Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) and by association, all the other factions vying for control of Atlantic City and a piece of the black market booze trade.
The ensemble drama has taken some surprising steps during the course of its second season, the most important of which has been the apparent usurping of Nucky's power by upstart Jimmy Darmody (Michael Pitt), through the puppet mastering of his father, Commodore Louis Kaestner (Dabney Coleman). Whether it is the lure of money and power, or the wish to see Nucky no longer seated at the head of the table, Jimmy and the Commodore have managed to assemble an impressive cadre of criminal types - many of whom, like Sheriff Eli Thompson (Shea Whigham), have come directly from Nucky's own camp.
This betrayal by Nucky's brother (Eli) and the young man he helped raise (Jimmy), has left Nucky against the ropes, with numerous legal charges pending against him that even the collective might of all his various contacts and favors cannot stop. So, showing he is, indeed, smarter and more dangerous than Jimmy and the Commodore give him credit for, Nucky relinquishes his role of Atlantic City treasurer and begins to flood the booze market in and around the area through his new Irish contacts – courtesy of right-hand man, Owen Slater (Charlie Cox).
While Nucky is fighting back, and refuses to take this downturn of events lightly, the confluence of circumstances has not affected him alone. As season 1 featured the building of the various characters in the world of Boardwalk Empire, season 2 has largely been about tearing them down, exploring the notion of consequence for the various acts of malfeasance and lack of contrition enacted by nearly every major player in the series.
This notion was made abundantly clear in the penultimate episode of season 2: 'Under God's Power She Flourishes'. Following the death of his wife Angela (Aleksa Palladino) at the hands of Manny Horvitz (William Forsythe), Jimmy recalls the succession of events that led to the couple's son, Tommy, and the disturbing incestuous turn that led him to give up the promise of a Princeton education to join the war. Despite the horrors he witnessed overseas, Jimmy's Oedipal transgression remained unfinished -- that is, until Jimmy killed his father after nearly strangling his mother Gillian (Gretchen Mol).
While those events were no doubt meant to shock, they also served to explore just how far Boardwalk Empire would go to seek punishment for its major characters. And no one is more cognizant of this than Margaret (Kelly Macdonald), who is convinced that her relationship with Nucky and tryst with Owen has led god to send punishment by way of Polio – leaving her daughter Emily without the use of her legs.
Now, with the threat of Nucky's trial looming, Jimmy finds himself in the precarious position of seeking to make amends with the man he betrayed. Meanwhile, Margaret, in search of penance, is asked to weigh an offer from prosecutor Esther Randolph (Julianne Nicholson, The Amazing Spider-Man), which could spell doom for Nucky. Given the events of the last two episodes, the finale 'To the Lost' had a lot to live up to, and it dutifully and eloquently delivered the end to what has been a masterful season.
Coming full circle, the finale opens with Jimmy and Richard rounding up the Klansmen responsible for shooting up the warehouse run by Chalky White (Michael Kenneth Williams). Utilizing Chalky's relationship with Nucky to arrange a meeting, Jimmy offers to pull Nucky out of the proverbial noose he put him in – basically admitting he no longer wants, or was never fit, to lead.
Later, as Nucky tends to Margaret's sympathetic nature, asking that she help save his life by marrying him (so she cannot be compelled to testify), Jimmy and Richard secure a confession from the newly appointed treasurer of Atlantic City, shortly before making his death look like a suicide.
Perhaps putting the well-being of her children first, Margaret agrees to the marriage. That, coupled with the forced confession/suicide note effectively forces a mistrial in the case against Nucky – which also sets Eli free, but sends traitorous Deputy Halloran to prison for murder.
Having tied up nearly every loose end, Nucky confronts Eli about his role in the assassination attempt that left a hole in Nucky's right hand. The two agree that Eli's confession and subsequent jail time for the murder Nucky had been charged with, will be penance enough for the betrayal of his brother.
Later, Jimmy meets with Nucky, Owen and a seemingly captive Manny Horvitz to apparently seek vengeance for Angela's murder. Despite the duplicity, Jimmy is not caught unaware (having come unarmed and excusing Richard from joining him), and stares down the barrel of Nucky's gun while explaining his death means nothing – he died years ago in trenches.
Nucky responds with a bullet, saying, "You don't know me, James. You never did. I am not seeking forgiveness."
After the season premiere, it was obvious that the characters would be in for a tumultuous period. And as Boardwalk Empire brings its second season to a close with such a dark exploration of guilt and consequence, it is Nucky's refusal to repent, while others wallow in attrition, that oddly steadies the series' aim at the future.
Michael Pitt's Jimmy was not only a major character in the show, but also, largely because of the talent in Pitt's performance, proved to be one of, if not the most, interesting character in season 2. To do away with him is not only a bold and shocking way to end the season, it also points to the strengths of Terence Winter and his writers, and their belief in the material that no change is too big for them to handle.
Boardwalk Empire returns to HBO with season 3 in the fall of 2012.

This tutorial isone of many methods which allow objects such as images to move across the screen otherwise animate. We start off with creating an image in any program and saving it as a .bmp file. This is the only file format in which VB6 may allow objects to move in a form. Then we will create a background for our form which may be saved as a .jpg format. Then we start making our form.
First we need to name our form, Form1 . Next we create a button called Move naming it cmdMove . After, we create a timer, tmrSpeed and an image naming it imgPic . Now we can start our coding...
We first declare pos above all subs so this can be used in all subs.
Dim pos As Integer
Then we code the Move button.
Private Sub cmdMove_Click() pos = 100 If cmdMove.Caption = "start" Then cmdMove.Caption = "stop" tmrSpeed.Enabled = True Else cmdMove.Caption = "start" tmrSpeed.Enabled = False End If End Sub
This part (above) uses the timer and tells the form when the form starts, the timer is disabled. It also tells the form when to start the form and when to stop it.
This section goes under the form when it loads. We load the background that you have made. It also tells us the timer interval which is 50.
Private Sub Form_Load() Form1.Picture = LoadPicture("C:\Background.jpg") tmrSpeed.Interval = 50 tmrSpeed.Enabled = False imgPic.Top = 3665 End Sub
Now all that's left is to code the timer, tmrSpeed.
Private Sub tmrSpeed_Timer() imgPic.Left = pos imgPic.Picture = LoadPicture("C:\Pic.bmp") pos = pos + 30 End Sub
The timer tells the form which way the image moves. It also loads the image and positions it within the form.
Now all we need to do is to load the form and click on the button to move the image.
Thank you.
PS: Please check for any errors which need to be addressed.

The Lost Trailers - Long Fall lyrics
The waves are settling down, and the sun has sunk into the sand
And the only calm this city gives is living in these ocean sounds
Well, it's not as bad as it could be, it's just not as good as I thought it would be
You'll find out what you miss most when you're out alone on the West Coast
In a longfall, yes, it's gonna be a longfall
I'm not sure why I'm still here, when I left my life seemed so clear
Now my dreams are heavy things that are muddied by reality
Cause I can't find good pay, and there's no game days on Saturdays
Yes, the only tailgates I see down are loading smack and crack c**aine
For a long haul, up the West Coast in this longfall
My girl loved the price of fame, I lost her when she changed her name
Her face used to feel so soft, 'til her agent's doctor pulled it off
[Lyrics from: https:/lyrics.az/the-lost-trailers/welcome-to-the-woods/long-fall.html]
She got a new nose and cheekbones, and a bit part on a TV show
But a home can turn to a frozen place, when the one you love's got a stranger's face
It's a longfall, out in LA, It's a longfall. Still no rain, and I don't feel the same
Just when I thought I'd head on back, I saw a black haired girl on the concrete path
She flung her hair back with her hands, between the setting sun and a coffee stand
And in the fading light I could barely see, when she fired up a Winston and gave it to me
She said, "You look like someone I know";
I said, "I do, well, thanks for the care, cause it shows."
In this longfall, there's fine folks out on the West Coast
It's just a longfall, where there's no cold, and no one gets old
In this longfall, there's no rain, but I know Jane will change
In this longfall, yes, I know things have got to change

On the ultimate list of Misguided Comic Book Movies, 2005's Constantine ranks fairly high (alongside Watchmen, From Hell and that one with Shaq as Steel). Starring a miscast Keanu Reeves and directed by Catching Fire helmer Francis Lawrence, the film transplanted DC's Hellblazer - the cult-favorite story of a cynical, chain-smoking occult detective with a wide humanist streak - from London to L.A. and traded the comic's Sting-lookalike main character for a leaden Neo with lung cancer (and Shia LeBeouf).
While the film is fun in the moment, the wild liberties taken with the source material made it almost universally reviled by fans of the comic book from the second it was released. The world of John Constantine - who first appeared as a supporting character in Swamp Thing - deserves another live-action adaptation, but Constantine's reception muted all talk of that possibility... until now.
THR reports that NBC has made a script commitment for a new series based on the comic book, to be written by David S. Goyer, who wrote Man of Steel for Warner Bros. as well as co-writing the first two entries of Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy and is writing the movie currently known as Batman Vs. Superman.
The show is being co-written by Daniel Cerone (executive producer of The Mentalist) and marks the latest announcement that a comic book property will get the small-screen treatment, following the news that Fox will air the Commissioner Gordon origin show Gotham Central.
The news comes on the heels of the series premiere of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D and with CW's popular Arrow returning for a second season - as well as serving as a launching pad for a show centered around The Flash - we appear to be heading into a new age of comic book television shows, for better or worse.
While Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. debuted to strong ratings, the overall experience was underwhelming, with many glaring problems from the outset. Arrow has striven for something darker in tone, a description which is particularly apt when it comes to Hellblazer. There is no word on whether or not the show will be adapted from the comic book or will function in conjunction with Guillermo del Toro's proposed Justice League Dark movie (which could also feature John Constantine), but the smart money is on the former.
The whole notion of this series adaptation might give a Hellblazer fan pause, were it not for David S. Goyer's involvement. Goyer has had his fair share of criticism, most recently revolving around the ending of Man of Steel, but now that enough time has passed since The Dark Knight Rises, we can reflect on that trilogy and come to the tentative conclusion that the final entry was not as strong as the first two films at least partially due to the fact that Goyer did not write it.
The Playlist recently revealed that it was Goyer who had to inform Nolan on what was canon while prepping Batman Begins - he understood what fans needed to see, and what could safely be modified without destroying the mythology. With that in mind, it seems like Hellblazer could be in far better hands this time around. And while Constantine is a character who has frequently crossed over into different DC franchises, it seems highly unlikely to expect this to happen on television, since Arrow, Gothan Central and the Constantine show will air on different networks.
There is no premiere date set for the television adaptation of Constantine but stay tuned for details as they become available.

Well I got up today and I put on my shades
And I said I was fine (I'm fine)
But everyone knew that I was lying (What you mean?)
If you look at my face (What you looking at?)
And the way that I behave (I ain't doing nothing strange)
You will still see a disguise (Hm)
Even if you was blind (damn)
But now I'm saying bye, goodbye
American Dreaming
American dreaming
It's not that hard to find
Cause most of the time
I'm American sleeping
I barely can see it
But now I'm saying bye, goodbye
[Verse 1]
As I rhyme and I rap
The average listener is blind to the fact
That my mind has been tapped (tapped)
I carry the World as it lies on my back (back)
My spine could've cracked so
Please pay me no mind as I laugh
This is all just a stage, every line is an act
I'm killing the American dream with a trap
Like an axe, I'ma put it in a sack
Then put it in the back of a black Cadillac
As I'm traveling
Some say that I'm thrown like a javelin
I'm really tryna get you exposed to the galaxies
Then break off the mould to normalities
People called the election a tragedy
Looking at the screen like "This can't be happening" (NO!)
I ain't saying that I'm some kind of activist
But something must be attacking us
[Verse 2]
Okay, bring it back
I was spending my time just posing (just posing)
Like a mannequin you pass by (pass by)
Tryna make it one day to the big league
Where the girls ain't hard to find
All the time, I was just searchin' for a plastic promised land
And I got myself entangled in a corporated plan (sign here)
But a dream is nothin'
And it's everything at the same time
So you never know when you might wake up
And find you was just living a lie
So goodbye, just like Trey said
Goodbye America, bye
Cause anything but the truth is a waste of time

Consumers aren't the only ones angry about Time Warner Cable's (TWC) plans to charge for Internet access based on usage. Some politicians are also starting to campaign against the cable giant's pricing experiments, which will begin in Austin and San Antonio, Texas; Rochester, N.Y.; and Greensboro, N.C. later this year.
- "I don't like it at all," Greensboro Mayor Yvonne Johnson said. "I'm not a happy camper about it. I think it's bad for their customers and it's bad for the city."
- "Just at a time when access to information is driving our economic recovery, Time Warner is moving to stagnate the 21st Century technology needed to rebuild America," said N.Y. Congressman Eric Massa.
We expect to hear more of this.
There's probably nothing politicians can do directly: There are no laws we know of requiring Time Warner Cable or any Internet provider to sell access for a flat fee. And anyway, this is capitalism, and the cable company should be able to charge whatever it wants for any service -- with the risk of losing business. (And if Time Warner is successful, this could boost its revenues and set an industry precedent.)
But politicians can raise hell. And Time Warner -- which is now making its product more confusing, tedious, and expensive -- desperately can not afford to lose customers to competitors, especially Verizon and AT&T.
