On October 4, 2010, on the Island of Rhodes in Greece, 150 energetic young people gathered to attend the first Rhodes Youth Forum. They came from 34 different countries to listen to reports and to talk about issues the world's social development. During the forum participants discussed questions concerning everyday life which young people often do not ponder: "How do young people see their future? What differences exist in the worldviews of young people from different countries and regions of the world? What can be done to pave the way towards a better future?" As the result of the Rhodes Youth Forum a new initiative to create an organization that could continue to support the activities of the youth on the ongoing basis was launched. This new international youth movement was officially founded on December 11, 2010 in Prague. The Prague manifesto of Youth Time specified the guiding principles of the new international movement. The name of the movement, "Youth Time", refers to the years of the youth as the happiest and most active period of life. Young people should use it properly in order to do their best for their own future and the future of older and younger generations.
Youth Time is an internationally oriented non-profit, non-political organization which actively represents a platform of dialogue between cultures and generations. We inspire and engage young people from all over the world, by encouraging them to develop their social leadership skills as well as to take upon their civil responsibility. Youth Time provides opportunities to take part in various projects, to help youth acquire new knowledge and skills in social and public sphere as well as to built up relations with other young social leaders.
Our vision
The younger generation takes the most active role in shaping our global community. Young people want to see and create a wealthy future for themselves and for the generations to come. We call for the youth to be aware of the current global issues and be pro-active when it comes to solving them. We would like to encourage active, open, and equal dialogue among the youth worldwide; to preserve national and cultural identity while valuing unity and diversity; and to facilitate the process of sharing knowledge, experience, and values between generations.
Our mission
We work on drafting, implementing, and synchronizing projects that aim for a better future in different spheres, primarily by establishing an active dialogue between and within generations, and by motivating the youth to be more active in their own lives and in public life.
Our goals
• Creating a network and platform for promoting the values and principles of the Youth Time International Movement;
• Stimulating an active intercultural dialogue and dialogue between generations based on the principles of openness, respect, and equality;
• Facilitating the acquisition of knowledge, values, and experience through exchanges between generations;
• Preserving national and cultural identities even though we recognize universal and indigenous values;
• Understanding the global challenges facing today's youth;
• Inviting young people to promote the values and principles of the Youth Time International Movement;
• Establishing contacts and promoting cooperation between the Youth Time International Movement and other friendly organizations.

"Work is slow. Send the CEO home": an Unhappy Labor Day
by: Lita Kurth on September 2nd, 2012 | 2 Comments »
Professionals, ask yourself, when is the last time you heard these words? "Work is slow today. So the CEO has to go home." (and by the way, his pay will be cut down to the precise hours worked). And since some of the work he's doing is not executive-level, let's call him an administrative assistant while he writes emails, and a VP when he's not leading a meeting but merely attending one, and pay him at lower levels for those hours.
Should a teacher be paid clerk wages while she photocopies materials for her class? Should a manager drop down to a waiter's pay while he helps out on the restaurant floor? Salaried professionals and executives would scream if those outrageous conditions prevailed, yet millions of wage-earners have to accept them.
The Third World Here at Home
A majority of service industries in the U.S. have a third world within the company, one you don't have to travel to China for. Two major abuses are rife in this sector: unreliable hours and temporary "promotions. Here's how it works:
Millions of baristas, counter people, hotel workers, clerks, and waitstaff, people who need and want a full-time job can only get 32 hours per week, the magical number that defines you as part-time, excluding you from full-time benefits. But even those 32 hours cannot be counted on. According to a Starbucks barista in New Zealand, a country noted for its good labor policies, "I normally work 35-50 hours a week, and next week I've been scheduled only 22 hours."
At least that worker had advance notice. A hotel worker of my acquaintance doesn't even know on the day she goes in how many hours she'll have. It might be two. It might be ten. Did a mom expect to get off at three o'clock to see her child in a school play? Too bad. There were more rooms to clean than usual. Does her childcare end at five? Too bad; today she has to work until seven. Somehow, somewhere she had better find flexible childcare because many childcare centers charge five bucks for every additional five minutes. Was she planning to pay off a phone bill next week or give her kid a birthday party? Oops, her pay is a third less than usual. She'll sit on pins and needles wondering if she'll earn enough for rent and gas to get to work. Since retail businesses are busy on weekends, those are the days employees can't get off. When they do get time off, it's often a single day, not two in a row. Try going out of town for one day.
Worst of all, such a wage-earner can't get another part-time job because some weeks, her first job needs her, and so she can't guarantee any hours to a second job. In addition, her hours of work may vary so much that she might not be able to take real classes at a legitimate college because she would miss so much class.
How it is at the Best Place
Even at Starbucks, listed as one of the top 100 companies to work for by Fortune, an employee said, "Our store currently has 5 shift supervisors, and of those 5, the only one who received over 30 hours on her schedule is the newest shift." Starbucks touts its benefits program, but barista from California said, "You will get your forms sometime soon after you have completed your third month. Then basically all you do is select which plan you want …. Just make sure you do it within the specified window of time or else you won't be eligible to enroll until next August. Also watch your hours and make sure you get at least 240 each quarter or else they will drop you like a ton of bricks." Another added, "The Starbucks in Santa Barbara, California will schedule you less than 20 hours per week. If you don't get enough hours and say you want more, they tell you to call other stores. If this is inconvenient, then too bad for you."
According to former Starbucks executive, Jim Donald, "the turnover rate for partners [baristas] is about 80 percent. Analysts put the average turnover rate for employees in the quick-service restaurant business at about 200 percent." This means that at Starbucks, which pays more than most and offers domestic partner benefits, eighty percent of hourly wage-earners are gone within a year. What's a typical, non-mandatory paid vacation in service jobs after a year? One week. Clearly most hourly employees in fast food (McDonalds and Burger King are among the top twenty employers in the country) get no paid vacation at all because they don't last a year, and there are many obstacles for those who do. Said one McDonald's employee, "I just started working at a McDonalds as a crew member and i was told i dont get vacation leave, and its not paid for if i ever need time off." It's so hard to find good help these days. I wonder why.
The Crazy Part: Temporary Promotions
A sick new practice is that of promoting workers to a higher level but just for a few hours a week, and demoting them back to their old level for the rest of the workday: "Now your manager hat is on! Presto! Now your manager's hat is off." This happens in the hospitality industry and many other retail and service industries. Again, from Starbucks, "One of the stores is 'heavy' three shift supervisors, so they are demoting the last three that were promoted."
The Abyss between Wage-Earners and Salaried
How can Starbucks say it offers "on-site childcare," "fully paid sabbaticals," "onsite fitness centers," and "telecommuting"?" I haven't seen any gyms or childcare centers at my ten local Starbucks. Ah, I see now that those items only apply to full-time salaried folks, not the ones who actually work in Starbucks cafes. How can a magazine like Fortune simply overlook the majority of the company's workers (64%) when it decides which are the best places to work? It's like saying a plantation is a great place to work (oh, except for the slaves).
A Failure of Empathy
The frightening part is that so few people in positions of power seem to care. They appear incapable of imagining themselves in their underlings' position. One website tells employers "How to Limit Employee Hours to Avoid Benefit Eligibility," and assures them, "You can reduce the hours of any nonexempt employee at any time; however, in states such as Connecticut you must provide notice in writing …" And to add insult to injury, "You can charge employees up to 102 percent of the premium cost for continued coverage. The extra 2 percent is for your administrative costs." So health benefits are not only wholly paid for by employees, but workers also chip in to ensure their employer has no cost!
Only 11.9% of American workers are unionized, and that number includes a fair number of professionals such as teachers and nurses. The lucky few have a collective voice and an organization actively working to keep them informed of their rights and to bargain for better conditions. But the lower-level wage-earner, though ubiquitous, is overlooked.
Are managers and business owners ogres? Of course not. Many will make efforts to accommodate good workers beyond the minimum the law requires. But workers cannot be best served by people who see them as "the other." The need for change is evident in this comment: "Craig Rowley, who leads the retail consulting practice at management consulting firm Hay Group says that it's understandable store employees want predictability, but that retail is 'not a predictable industry.'" Is management consulting a predictable industry?
Once one reaches a certain level, this unpredictability doesn't matter. It's predictable enough for the head-office folks; they get to discuss and negotiate their own salaries, benefits, and working conditions with a friendly board while conferring much worse conditions on others. This attitude reminds me of T. W. Hoit, a 19th century anti-abolitionist who said, in defense of slavery, "The intimate commercial relations existing between this Republic and the principal maritime and warlike nations of the globe, mainly by means of the products of slave labor, constitute a necessity for our onward, uninterrupted progress,…" Who is this "our" he speaks of? It certainly doesn't include workers.
We're Number 137!
In 136 other countries of the world, workers have the right to paid vacation. Maybe someday the U.S. will too. But it won't come about through endless proclamations of "We're the best!" at Republican conventions.
Let me leave the last word to John Schmitt of CEPR (Center for Economic Policy and Research):"This is one of the most important ideological victories of the right in the last 30 years–to persuade us we aren't rich enough to treat workers well. We're incredibly rich, getting richer every year, and we have plenty of resources to pay adequate wages, pensions, health insurance and vacations, but we've chosen to give that money to the top five percent."

Tip: Use the Go To Box to Navigate a Tool
Picture this: you open Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary and want to go to the main article on David. You could search the Entry field for the word "David," but that would give you every article and subarticle which mentions David. You would then have to hit the down Mark arrow a half-dozen times to jump to the main article on David.
A much simpler approach is not to do a search at all, but to use the Go To box in the bottom right corner of the Tool tab. Simply enter "David" in that box and hit Return to navigate to the article which begins with the word David.
How well entering something in the Go To box will take you to your desired article depends to some extent on the contents of the tool, but for dictionaries like Anchor which tend to have standard articles, this approach works really well.
Archived Comments
Thank you for the great tip. It was on my mind to post a question just like this to the forum. I had no idea the answer would be the GoTo Box. This really makes it nice.
Awesome tip!

As the legend goes — and I don't know that anyone has stepped up to accept responsibility — a group of high school students in California in the early 1970s coined the time 4:20 as the time they would meet up (by a statue of Louis Pasteur, of all places) for post-scholastic use of marijuana. Decades later, 420, 4:20, 4/20, etc… are counterculture crossovers to mean the use of pot.
As April 20th (4/20) falls on a blog posting day and a number of us have talked about the medical use of cannabis for symptoms of multiple sclerosis, I thought we might have a conversation about the topic.
According to the website ProCon.org, 16 states and the District of Columbia have laws concerning the legal use marijuana for medical purposes. Each state came to their versions of said regulations differently, and each law addresses the growth, procurement, possession, and use of plants, their products, and bi-products differently.
The amount of "usable" pot allowed by the states varies from a single ounce (Nevada, Montana, and Alaska) to a pound and a half (Oregon and Washington). The number of plants a patient can possess (both mature and immature/seedling) is also regulated, ranging from zero in Delaware and New Jersey to two dozen in Oregon.
Most states allowing for the legal/medical use of medical marijuana (oft "MMJ") do not recognize registration/ID cards from other states, so the use of MMJ is usually allowed in your home state only.
Symptom relief attributed to MMJ (in MS) range from spasticity and pain to sleep issues and tremor.
The National MS Society has funded a few small studies which have proved inconclusive but urge more research. A very good article, written by MS complementary and alternative guru, Dr Allen Bowling MD, PhD, in last fall's Momentum magazine does a nice job baring the subject to the interested person living with MS.
Though a 2005 US Supreme Court ruling all but negates statutory protections from federal prosecution — even in states where MMJ is legal — the laws have found odd bedfellows in the support from the court's most conservative Justices (citing it as a "states' rights" issue).
We've chatted about MMJ in the Life With MS Blog on other occasions and, given that a full two-thirds of states still see MMJ as a hippy plot (or just haven't gotten around to addressing the issue), I understand if some of you who "use" wouldn't want to comment. That said, we have a certain level of anonymity here — if we choose.
So, on this 4/20, I figured I'd open the conversation to the legal use of medical marijuana — not only to the MS community but also to any others who might use MMJ to soothe the symptoms of their conditions.
Wishing you and your family the best of health.
Don't forget that you can also follow me via my Life With MS Facebook page, on Twitter, and our new group on MSConnection.org. Check out our bi-monthly blog I'm doing for the Multiple Sclerosis Society of the United Kingdom, A Yank's Life With MS, as well as our very special new monthly blog for the National MS Society.

The proposed San Gabriel Generating Station (SGGS) will consist of a natural gas-fired combined cycle power plant and associated linear facilities. It is proposed by San Garbriel Generation, LLC, a subsidiary of NRG.
The SGGS will be a (2x1) configuration which will consist of two combustion turbine generators (CTG), two supplementally fired heat recovery steam generators (HRSG), one steam turbine generator (STG), and ancillary equipment.
The linear facilities will consist of the natural gas line, makeup water supply line, fire protection water line, potable water line, process wastewater line, and the transmission line that connects to the Southern California Edison Company's (SCE) future Rancho Vista substation.
The project, if constructed, would generate 696 megawatts (MW) average new output of electricity. Per Committee Order dated June 2, 2009, the project has been suspended through December 31, 2009 due to the uncertainty of the project being able to secure emission reduction credits within the South Coast Air Quality Management District's Priority Reserve Credit program.
The proposed project will be fueled with pipeline-quality natural gas that will be delivered to the power plant site.
Except for approximately 200 feet of gas line and 400 feet of transmission line, the SGGS will be primarily sited within the existing 60-acre Etiwanda Generating Station (EGS) property located on Etiwanda Avenue in Rancho Cucamonga, San Bernardino County, California.
Energy Commission Facility Certification Process
The California Energy Commission is the lead agency (for licensing thermal power plants 50 megawatts and larger) under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has a certified regulatory program under CEQA. Under its certified program, the Energy Commission is exempt from having to prepare an environmental impact report. Its certified program, however, does require environmental analysis of the project, including an analysis of alternatives and mitigation measures to minimize any significant adverse effect the project may have on the environment.

Update: The repository below is not maintained anymore, as official packages have been pushed into Debian. They are not yet available for Ubuntu 11.04 though. In order install 4store on Natty you'd have to install the following packages from the Oneiric repository, in order:
- libyajl1
- libgmp10
- libraptor2
- librasqal3
- lib4store0
- 4store
And you should have a running 4store (1.1.3).
Old post, for reference: I've been playing a lot with
Garlik's 4store recently, and I have been
building a few things around it. I just finished building packages for Ubuntu Jaunty, which you can get by adding the
following lines in your
deb http://moustaki.org/apt jaunty main deb-src http://moustaki.org/apt jaunty main
And then, an
apt-get update && apt-get install 4store
should do the trick. The packages are available for i386 and amd64. It is also
one of my first packages, so feedback is welcomed (I may have gotten it
completely wrong). After being installed, you can create a database and start a SPARQL server.
I've also been writing two client libraries for 4store, all available on Github:
- 4store-php, a PHP library to interact with 4store over HTTP (so not exactly similar to Alexandre's PHP library, which interacts with 4store through the command-line tools);
- 4store-ruby, a Ruby library to interact with 4store over HTTP or HTTPS.

Take Care Fern Card
Designer Tip: When doing the embossing from underneath, make sure to start with a larger piece of paper than you need, so while embossing you won't have to get too close to your fingers with the heat tool. Do not try to heat emboss through more than one layer of cardstock or paper, and pay close attention to keeping the embossing tool 3" away from the surface at all times.

Keyboards often eclipse pens as the writing tool of necessity. As computers continue to gain precedence in our lives, we fill a graveyard with lost penmanships and John Hancocks of decreasing legibility. John Geraci combines the personal imprint of handwriting with the connective possibilities of the Internet in his newly released project 'Grafedia,' developed at NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program. Elaborating on themes explored in neighbornode--a wireless, localized bulletin network Geraci built in 2004--Grafedia turns the city of New York into a potential webpage. An author can write, draw, even tattoo, a hyperlink onto a public space in the form: firstname.lastname@example.com. The author also uploads media corresponding to or enhancing to the location, like an original photograph, to the Grafedia site. Passers who encounter a link can 'click' it by sending a text message to email@example.com. In turn, Grafedia beams the author's hidden media back to the inquiring wireless device. Since Grafedia's annotative marks are not anonymous but in fact scrawled by the hands of their authors, viewers are able to follow particular people and stories. And the cherry on top my original photograph? It's a lot fun. - Alyssa Wright

Visitors passing on presidents' libraries. Can you believe that people are passing on visiting presidential libraries? As a librarian, and a fan of the American Presidency, I am just shocked! OK, not really.
The article notes, "For example, the Gerald R. Ford Library and Museum has seen its attendance plummet nearly 60 percent during the last six years. The Herbert Hoover Presidential Library-Museum has weathered an 18 percent drop-off during the same period."
I have visited the Gerald R. Ford Library and enjoyed it. However, I can understand why the average tourist might not find a visit to a presidential library exciting.
Maybe these libraries need to find some way to make a visit fun? Perhaps actors dressed up as a president, an apple festival, a dunk the presidential library director contest, trick or treat with the president at Halloween, etc. Or maybe not. If scholars can find what they need, it really does not matter how many tourists find their way in. But still, there should be some ways to make these places more interesting.

North Tahoe baseball | Myers tosses shutout, drives in four against Whittell
The North Tahoe baseball team routed visiting Whittell 10-0 in a Mount Rose League matchup in Tahoe Vista on Wednesday.
Sophomore Mitchell Myers started on the mound and gave up only four hits through five innings, as the game was called on the 10-run mercy rule after the Lakers pushed across a final run in the bottom of the fifth.
Myers was on his game, as he recorded 12 strikeouts and walked only two. He also helped his cause at the plate, leading the Lakers with a 3-for-3 day with a double, triple and four RBIs.
Senior Colin Spencer had two hits and two RBIs, while Miles Johansen had a double and two RBIs, Lucas Early had three hits, including a double, and an RBI, and Alex Tyler had a double and an RBI. Alex Bourriague and Wildon DesLauriers each contributed a hit.
The Lakers scored three runs in the first inning, two more in the third and four in the fourth to take a commanding 9-0 lead. Their final run in the fifth ended the game by mercy.
North Tahoe improved to 9-6 overall after its third consecutive Mount Rose League win.
The Lakers are scheduled to play a nonleague game at Portola on Friday before taking on Whittell again in a doubleheader Saturday at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. at Lampe Park in Gardnerville.

The board's new members are: Leslie Monday, a 1993 graduate from Kirkland, Wash.; Juan Carlos Muñoz, a 2000 graduate from Holland; Samantha Rushton, a Hope junior from Warren; and David Stavenger, a 1965 graduate from Midland. The appointments were made during the board's May meeting and became effective earlier this summer.
Andrea Converse, a 2012 graduate from Lowell who was formerly Senior Class Representative, was appointed representative of the most recent graduating class. Sa'eed Husaini of Jos, Nigeria, formerly Junior Class Representative, was appointed Senior Class Representative.
In addition, Tom Kyros, a 1989 graduate from Grand Rapids, has been elected vice president, succeeding Michael McCarthy, a 1985 graduate from Weston, Mass., whose service on the board is continuing. Lisa Bos, a 1997 graduate from Washington, D.C., is continuing to serve as president, and Anita Bateman, a 1998 graduate from San Antonio, Texas, is continuing as secretary.
The board members who have concluded their service to the board are: Bob Bieri, a 1983 graduate from Holland; Carol Troost, a 1968 graduate from Scotia, N.Y.; Lois Veldman, a 1956 graduate from Lansing; and Colton Wright, a 2011 graduate from Tecumseh.
Monday is active as a volunteer in her community, including at her sons' elementary school and on the Board of Directors for the Kirkland Boys and Girls Club, and as an annual supporter of the Susan G. Komen Walk for the Cure. She previously worked in human resources with Prince Corporation (now Johnson Controls). She and her husband, Marc, who is a 1992 Hope graduate, are members of First Presbyterian Church of Bellevue, where she serves as a deacon.
She was a language arts and education major at Hope, where her activities also included the Delta Phi Sorority, the Pull tug-of-war, the Nykerk Cup competition and the "Opus" literary magazine. She was also a second-generation student at Hope, the daughter of Arlene and Dale Schoon, both of the Class of 1961. She and Marc have hosted Hope regional events, participated in the college's admissions alumni-calling program and have served as Class Representatives.
Muñoz owns a Farmers Insurance Agency in Holland, and was previously with State Farm and for 10 years had been employed in banking. He is a volunteer with Ready for School, which he serves as a member of the disbursement committee, and is a past treasurer of the West Michigan Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, and is also a member of Christ Memorial Church.
Muñoz majored in business administration at Hope, where his activities included serving as a student mentor through the Career Advisors program, the Hispanic Student Organization, the business and economics departmental club, and intramural soccer. In addition to returning to campus for class reunions, he has recommended students to the college's admissions office and has mentored a minority student.
Rushton is majoring in communication and psychology and interested in event management, particularly in student development, and counseling. She has worked in the college's Center for Faithful Leadership as a student assistant, and is also a participant in the center's LdOut3 leadership-training program. Her activities at the college also include the Student Alumni Leadership Council, the Dorian sorority and the Union of Catholic Students, and she will also work with the incoming freshman class as an Orientation Assistant later this month.
Rushton is a 2010 graduate of Bishop Foley Catholic High School in Madison Heights. She is the daughter of Gary and Sherrie Rushton of Warren.
Stavenger has throughout his career been involved in product development and business development. For the past 12 years, he has served as a consultant to entrepreneurial start-ups. He was previously employed with Dow Chemical Company, from which he retired after 30 years, most recently serving as a counselor in new business development. He and his wife, Betsy, who is a member of the college's Class of 1966, are active members of Midland Reformed Church. In addition, he is a founding member of The Friends of Whispering Pines, an organization designed to meet the immediate needs and bring about change for a low-income trailer community in Midland County.
Stavenger majored in chemistry and minored in business at Hope, where his activities included the Cosmopolitan fraternity and the Pull tug-of-war, and after Hope he completed an MBA in marketing and finance at the University of Chicago.

Du Vin Wine & Spirits
René is the founder and proprietor of Du Vin Wine & Spirits, the only wine shop specializing in European wines in Southern California.

Retail Hours:
MON-SAT 10AM to 7PM
Closed on Sundays January thru November
During the month of December
we're open Sundays 11AM to 6PM
Los Angeles Edition of Rich Bastard's Guide Boldly Declares:
"Du Vin claims to be the only genuine French wine specialist in LA, but amazingly, given this rather grandiose declaration, RBs will find this excellent store hosted by savvy staff displaying no Gallic attitude. They cater regularly to RBs in the film industry, selling bottles for up to a fruity $6,000. Whether you want a supremely rare Burgundy, Bordeaux, or Cognac, this is one of the best places to look."
September 1996 Issue of W Magazine:
"Du Vin, in West Hollywood probably has the best selection of French wines in town. Owner, René Averseng, caters to all the top theatrical agencies and major studios. And the little shop offers those dry Roses that film folk, nostalgic over lazy Riviera summer lunches at Cannes, seem to love so much."
Zagat Los Angeles Marketplace Survey:
"This West Hollywood find is jam-packed with fabulous wines; fans say it's best for French regional vintages but it also features Italian wines, cognacs, single malts and more; with good quality, classy environs and a helpful owner, it's a fun place to shop."

Tapestry is a fabric that is woven with one or more extra sets of yarns or threads to create a floral or pictorial pattern. Originally tapestry was woven entirely by hand.
Compared to brocade, which is a similar fabric, tapestry is heavier and has a rougher surface.
Tapestry fabrics are fairly durable and can be used for coats, jackets, handbags and home dec projects.
Sewing with tapestry can be difficult in that it is thick and bulky, snags easily and is hard to ease, however, it will hold up well!
Some things to remember when working with tapestry- it requires a nap layout and, if making something like a coat or jacket, tapestry patterns need to be aligned along the front pieces.
Things to make with tapestry:
Pillows! Some tips to consider when making tapestry pillows.
Handbags! Tapestry handbags are durable and will definitely add some color to your wardrobe.
Coats and Jackets! This is a simple way to turn a tapestry into a jacket. Add a collar, cuffs and other embellishments to customize it!

Nanotech wonder Buckypaper is 10 times lighter and 500 times stronger than steel. And while academic research labs have successfully synthesised the stuff for years, the first architectural firm has just made Buckypaper on their own.
NY's Decker Yeardon just revealed their first thin sheet of the stuff - a "paper" made up of carbon nanotubes that, aside from being absurdly strong and light, can serve functions like filtering and heat dispersion. Their first piece measures just 90mm in diameter, but that's not stopping Decker Yeardon from imagining the possibilities:
We're hopeful that this new Buckypaper can be used as a thin, flexible electrode surface in an artificial muscle that we're developing for architecture.
But as much as the prospect of a flexing Burj Khalifa excites us all, it's probably not a bad time to remember, we haven't exactly don't a ton of research as to the effects of of these materials on our own bodies. [Decker Yeardon via Nanoarchitecture via Inhabitat]

The discovery of a rare mass grave with the bones of nearly 60 people outside Luxor sends archaeologists on a quest to find out who the remains belong to, why they were buried the way they were and what was happening in ancient Egypt that would have led to a mass burial.

It has been a very hectic summer over here at Smith Multisport Base Camp (otherwise known as The House in Waresboro). Allen's been getting ready for Silverman; he is heading into Black October, that insane month that precedes the November Ironman races. He's going at it hard; as a matter of fact, he's heading up to Dahlonega, Georgia this afternoon to participate in the Six-Gap Century in the morning. His ride report will follow on this blog when he recovers in a month or two….
Allen is well on his way to become a USAT Level 1 Coach. He completed his coursework in New Orleans this month, and will be taking the certification exam soon. He learned some fabulous stuff at the clinic that he'll be passing on: nutrition, sports psychology, periodization, among other things.
Allen and I participated in the Rock of the Marne Sprint Triathlon on September 19th. I've posted my race report on my blog.
We're looking forward to the 1st Annual Femme Pedale Bike Fix School this Tuesday- hope to see you there!
– Janna

Anyone who has tinkered with the Prototype model in JavaScript to produce classes as we know them in other languages has generally left web programming all together and taken up a career as a bus driver. There are a coterie of frameworks designed specifically to address this problem. But what if you're not wild about frameworks, preferring instead to build tools specifically suited to your needs and style? For you, there is some black magic that can revolutionize the way you interact with the current JavaScript standard (someone please thaw me out when the 2.0 standard is implemented in June 2134, or whatever the projected date is).
What you'll need
A text editor and a web browser.
Meet the encapsulated JavaScript function! More than a function, less than a traditional OOP class, but super useful and a cinch to make. All you really need is:
function someObj() { function someMethod() { alert('boo'); } } o_obj = new someObj();
Let's change the previous code a bit.
function someObj() { this.someMethod = someMethod; function someMethod() { alert('boo'); } } o_obj = new someObj();
Now we've added the line this.someMethod = someMethod, which makes an individual and public reference to someMethod(). We might also make this neater by combining this.someMethod with the function declaration, as follows:
function someObj() { this.someMethod = function() { alert('boo'); } } o_obj = new someObj(); o_obj.someMethod(); //alerts "boo"
If I execute the above script in a browser, I'll get an alert message with "boo" in it. Of course, what's good for the function is good for the variable, as shown in the following example.
function someObj() { this.publicVar = 'public'; var privateVar = 'private'; this.someMethod = function() { alert('boo'); } } o_obj = new someObj(); alert(o_obj.publicVar); //alerts "public" o_obj.publicVar = 'new'; alert(o_obj.publicVar); //alerts "new" alert(o_obj.privateVar); //alerts nothing or an error, depending on the browser
Execute this in the browser, and you might get chills. Holy crap, we have public and private variables. You just have to remember that all references to a public variable within encapsulated functions must be preceeded by "this." or you'll end up accidentally creating a totally separate variable. And to bring it full circle, private methods are made possible like this…
function someObj() { this.publicVar = 'public'; var privateVar = 'private'; this.someMethod = function() { alert('boo'); someOtherMethod(); } // Private method. (Due to closure, this need not be declared before // someMethod although someMethod uses it.) var someOtherMethod = function() { alert('indirect reference'); } } o_obj = new someObj(); o_obj.someOtherMethod(); //will throw an undefined function error o_obj.someMethod(); //alerts "boo" followed by "indirect reference"
The above example should that function not given a "this." pointer is a defacto private method.
Here you will probably pause to realize that this particular black magic seems too good to be true. "Show me ye olde classical inheritance!" you cry. Here's where the limits to this sorcery are exposed. Classical inheritance doesn't come naturally to JavaScript. With a little coaxing you can get something equally useful, especially if you wish to build interrelated but independent libraries of encapsulated code following all of the other OOP rules we know and love. Consider the following:
function someObj() { this.o_otherobj; this.doOtherObj = function() { this.o_otherobj = new otherObj(); } } function otherObj() { this.otherMethod = function() { alert('over the rainbow'); } } o_obj = new someObj(); o_obj.doOtherObj(); o_obj.o_otherobj.otherMethod(); //alerts "over the rainbow"
This time, we have two independent and encapsulated functions, one essentially encapsulating another and providing a public interface. Those wondering if they can have a constructor function should note that in the above example that,
function someObj() { this.o_otherobj; this.doOtherObj = function() { this.o_otherobj = new otherObj(); } }
could just as easily have been,
function someObj() { this.o_otherobj = new otherObj(); }
and gotten the same result. Any code not encapsulated within that second-tier of functions is executed when the object is instantiated, mimicking constructor behavior.
Remember that standard variable scoping rules apply within encapsulated functions. Any variable declared in a second-tier function will become global to the whole class, so you have to be as careful with your namespace as you would be otherwise.
As a caveat, this method comes with more overhead than the typical usage of Javascript prototype to declare classes as each methods are duplicated across objects.
Alternate methods
For a more direct approach, you can copy the following into an .html file and play with it live in your browser.

 For a good time, paste these snippets into your address bar!

javascript:o_jsobj.doSayItOutLoud('Yo!');

javascript:alert(o_jsobj.m_public);

javascript:alert(o_jsobj.m_private);

(if you saved a variable) javascript:o_jsobj.getPrivateVariable();

javascript:o_jsobj.getPrivateVariable();

javascript:o_jsobj.doGriffins();

javascript:o_jsobj.o_griffins.doMeg('Booger');

javascript:o_jsobj.o_griffins.doPeter();

javascript:o_jsobj.o_griffins.doStewie();

Frankfurt 2013: 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible Revealed
The 2014 Chevrolet Camaro convertible dropped its top at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, six months after the coupe debuted at the 2013 New York auto show. Although there are virtually no mechanical changes, the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro convertible benefits from an extensive face lift.
The 2014 Chevrolet Camaro convertible adopts a skinnier front grille and narrower headlights, as well as restyled blocky taillights that now use LEDs. The front fascia reportedly helps improve downforce and engine cooling at speed. There are also new wheel designs, a color head-up display, and a new rear fascia. While the Camaro coupe scores optional Recaro bucket seats for 2014, those can't be used in the convertible due to differences in the seatbelt mounting position.
There are no changes underhood, so 2014 Chevrolet Camaro convertible buyers will pick between from the 323-hp, 3.6-liter V-6 engine, the 426-hp, 6.2-liter V-8 in the SS, and the 580-hp, 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 in the ZL1. The final new addition for the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro is a Z/28 model that removes heavy items like the radio, speakers, and back seats, and instead adds a beefy 7.0-liter V-8 with at least 500 hp. The Z/28 will only be offered as a coupe.
The 2014 Chevrolet Camaro is on sale now in the U.S.

Not much more to be done now for the Pineland Farms 50-miler in two weeks. Steady taper down to race day, which feels a bit odd since the training hasn't been intense since Boston last month, which was on purpose.
Goals for Pineland? To be perfectly honest, I'm not taking this race too seriously. I'm kind of burnt out on the "I have to do this" mentality I possessed with the MDI and Boston Marathons. I just want to have fun. That being said, I'm going to push to do well and try to break eight hours (a reach goal), but I really don't care if I don't end up coming even close to that. Just going to let the chips fall where they lie and be content with whatever happens. Looking forward to it!
Ran 4.2 miles @ 9:06/mile pace.
Grassy fields.
Upper 40s, overcast, mist and light rain throughout.
Barefoot, shorts, long sleeved shirt.

Now Accepting Youth Submissions for 2013 AYV Aspire Awards
Now Accepting Youth Submissions for 2013 AYV Aspire Awards
CONTENT: Blog
Adobe believes creativity not only makes the world a more beautiful place, but it is also a critical component to addressing some of the most difficult challenges we face as a society.
The global State of Create report Adobe released last year revealed only one in four people believe they're living up to their own creative potential, and more than half feel creativity is being stifled by the education system. In response, we've aimed to address this "creativity gap" by further imbedding creativity into our products, communities and schools.
Through Adobe Youth Voices (AYV), Adobe's global philanthropic commitment, we're working to ignite creative confidence in youth by empowering them to find their voice and make it heard. In doing so, we can help them become more active and engaged members of their communities and society at large. As an extension of this commitment, we're thrilled to announce the launch of this year's AYV Aspire Awards competition.
Now in its second year, AYV Aspire Awards is a global, online challenge that invites youth to creatively express their vision for driving positive change in local communities. Participants can convey their ideas using a variety of visual storytelling methods, from videos to photo essays. In addition, a new category for this year – the UNICEF Challenge – invites youth to develop a video proposal for a project they'd like to implement.
The Aspire Awards call for entries is now open, and we're looking forward to kicking-off online voting for the public in late April.
It's an exciting time for us - please check out our AYV site for more info, and keep an eye out for more AYV-related announcements in the coming weeks.
Last year's entries showcased remarkable talent. See the accompanying multimedia for a few of our favorites.

That's what I've done—kept my Father's commands and made myself at home in His love. I've told you these things for a purpose: that my joy might be your joy, and your joy wholly mature.." (John 15:9-11 MSG) I am learning to make my home in God's love through every season, including the loss of our youngest son. I have found Him to be faithful to lead, guide and strengthen me as I daily choose to turn to Him in surrendered trust. I share my struggles and the things I am learning here in hope that they will encourage you in your journey towards life and fullness of joy in His presence. "You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore. " (Psalms 16:11 AMP)

Mets place C. Young on DL with strained right quad
NEW YORK -- One day after outfielder Chris Young lasted just one inning in his Mets debut, the team placed Young on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right quad. Young is eligible to return April 18 against the Braves, and the Mets expect him back at that time.
"I think it's only going to be 15 days," manager Terry Collins said. "I don't think it's anything severe. I do believe that he caught it in time -- he just said it grabbed on him, he could jog off the field, he didn't have to come out immediately -- so I don't think it's going to be any longer than that."
For the Mets, replacing Young on the roster was as simple as activating second baseman Daniel Murphy from paternity leave. The team plans to keep infielder Wilmer Flores, who was originally recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas to sub for Murphy, on the 25-man roster until Sunday. New York will activate Jon Niese at that time, likely optioning Flores back to Las Vegas and keeping outfielder Andrew Brown on the active roster.
Young, meanwhile, will work to rehab an injury that he thought was behind him after he sat out Opening Day. Calling his situation "a bad dream," Young said he felt fine warming up prior to Wednesday's game, but tweaked his quad chasing down an Adam LaRoche foul ball.
"It's one thing to warm up and stay warm and say, 'Oh jeez, I feel good,'" Collins said of Young, who signed with the Mets on a $7.25 million deal this winter. "It's another thing to warm up and go stand in the outfield for five or six minutes without running when it's 45 degrees out, and then all of the sudden have to explode. I think that's what happened [Wednesday]. We'll get him rest and get him some treatment, but I think he'll be back in a normal amount of time."

BONUS STORE FAQs
Why does Ladbrokes have a bonus store?
Ladbrokes now gives you the freedom to choose exactly how much of your funds you would like to allocate to each available bonus in your preferred product and hence, bonus wagering requirements. Simply visit the 'Bonus Store' tab, select a bonus that interests you and then choose whether or not you would like to use all, or some of your funds, when purchasing a bonus.
How do I get a bonus?
To get a bonus or to take advantage of other promotional offers, visit the bonus store by clicking the 'Bonus Store' tab and allocate as much of your funds as you would like to any of the bonuses that are of interest to you. According to your product preference we will also send you information on our latest special offers by email. To ensure you do not miss out on any of our promotions, please make sure you currently allow communications from Ladbrokes by completing the following three simple steps:
- Log in, access the MY ACCOUNT section which is located at the top right-hand corner of the screen and then click the DETAILS tab;
- Scroll down the page to and check the relevant boxes to receive information about free bets or other promotional offers and services. You can choose to receive notifications by email, post, telephone or SMS;
- Enter your Ladbrokes password at the bottom of the screen and then click UPDATE DETAILS.
How do I use my Ladbrokes bonus?
You are able to use your bonus as soon as you purchase it. Once you purchase a bonus, five separate balances will be created for you:
- Ring-Fenced Funds: Funds used to purchase Ladbrokes bonuses are to be reserved for gameplay on the corresponding product, and cannot be used for gameplay on any other Ladbrokes products. For example, if you purchase a bonus for £10, this amount will be allocated for the bonus you chose to buy and cannot be withdrawn until you have met the wagering requirements. In addition, these funds can only be used for gameplay on that product;
- Bonus Funds: This is the total amount of bonuses purchased. For example, if you purchase a £20 bonus, your bonus balance will show £20;
- Total Playable Balance: Displays your Bonus balance + ring-fence funds balance + cash that is not ring-fenced or tied to any bonus.
- Pending Winnings: The amount you have won and will be able to withdraw once you have completed the bonus wagering requirements. For example, if you purchase a bonus for £10 and win £20, your pending winnings will be displayed as £10, but you will not be able to withdraw these winnings until you have met the wagering requirements
- Real Cash Balance: This is your total available cash balance, not including your ring-fenced funds.
Please note that when completing wagering requirements, your pending winnings are wagered first, followed by your ring-fenced funds and then by your bonus funds.
When you win, your bonus balance and ring-fenced balances will be topped off. When these two balances are full, your remaining winnings will be placed in your pending winnings balance.
How do I distinguish between my bonus funds and my cash funds?
When you log in to your account, you can view your Real Balance and Bonus Balance from the 'My Account' section. Bonus funds accumulated while meeting wagering requirements are called 'Pending Winnings'. You can withdraw your real/regular funds at any time, however, if you have a bonus balance (including any pending winnings funds), your bonus balance will be forfeited. To ensure you are able to withdraw all funds, including your pending winnings, make sure you meet the bonus wagering requirements so that your pending winnings will be converted to real funds. To see a breakdown of all your balances, click on 'Balance Info' from the drop-down menu.

WEDNESDAY Jan. 30, 2013 — Age-old wisdom has suggested that a bit of beer might be good for you. Now, new information suggests that the bitter compounds in beer might aid in the development of new drugs for diabetes, some types of cancer and other health problems.
In the new study, researchers determined the precise configuration of humulones, substances derived from hops that give beer its unique flavor.
"Now that we have the right results, what happens to the bitter hops in the beer-brewing process makes a lot more sense," study lead author Werner Kaminsky, a University of Washington research associate professor of chemistry, said in a university news release.
The study was published in the Jan. 28 issue of the journal Angewandte Chemie International Edition.
Previous research has suggested that moderate consumption of beer — and therefore its bitter compounds — might have positive effects on diseases such as diabetes and some types of cancer, as well as aiding weight loss and decreasing inflammation.
The new findings could help scientists determine which humulones might prove useful in efforts to develop new drugs, Kaminsky said.
The authors wrote in their report that while "excessive beer consumption cannot be recommended to propagate good health . . . isolated humulones and their derivatives can be prescribed with documented health benefits."
The study was funded by KinDex Therapeutics of Seattle, where Kaminsky's co-authors are employed.

Studies suggest that stress—both short-term and chronic—play a negative role in the memory performance of older adults. Moderate amounts of stress, such as driving to an unfamiliar location to take a memory test, can produce test results similar to those of a patient with Alzheimer's. A recent study carried out by Sophia Lupien's team at the Centre for Studies on Human Stress (CSHS) of the Louis-H. Lafontaine Hospital, in affiliation with Université de Montréal, demonstrates that when seniors are tested under stressful circumstances, the release of stress hormones (cortisol) causes a rapid decline in memory performance. In the study, seniors took memory tests in both inconvenient locations, and familiar locations. Interestingly, when these same exams took place in familiar locations, their memory performance rivaled that of young adults.
Long-term stress can have a negative impact on memory performance, and may play a role in the development of age-related disorders such as Alzheimer's. During stressful periods, the adrenal glands secrete cortisol, which travels to the memory and learning centers of the brain (hippocampus) and to the amygdala (emotional gateway for memory). Exposure to high levels of glucocorticoids (the main class of stress hormones) throughout life can damage brain cells. As we age, our biological systems slow, causing cortisol levels to remain higher longer, and the effects of stress to last longer. Recent studies by Finnish researchers have found that the long-term effects of stress may be the biggest cause of Alzheimer's disease. Those with both high blood pressure and high cortisol levels are more than three times as likely to develop Alzheimer's as older adults without those symptoms.

SFGate's 'On the Block' blog this week identified a familiar trend with a funny new name: Flipping to hipsters. The idea here is that sellers in more affordable markets can find opportunity in targeting hipsters, which The Chron's Anna Marie Erwert identified as basically anybody between the ages of 25 and 35. This demographic owns homes at a lower rate than the rest of the country, and represents an under-valued marketplace.
But while Erwertt is quick to distance this notion from the sometimes-charged word "hipster," which actually came from the source material for the article, a survey on RealtyTrac, we at the Eichler network will be unapologetic about it. Those in love with vintage style, who shop on Etsy, collect vinyl records, and go thrifting (that is to say, hipsters of the first order), are exactly the types to understand the value of an Eichler or other classic mid-century modern house.
And Bay Area sellers are in luck, per Realty Trac, because two of the top 10 most profitable markets in which to flip to hipsters happen to be areas where Eichler homes can be found: Oakland and Concord.
The idea of flipping to hipsters isn't arbitrary. To do it, you can't just buy a house, rehab it cheaply, then hope a young person comes along when you put it on the market. You have to actively target the demographic. Eichlers, with their cult status and cool profiles, have a head start in that department.
"Real estate investors who want to tap into that trend should start with location: finding homes in communities with a heavy hipster demographic, and that are affordable for that demographic," RealtyTrac's Daren Blonquist writes. Check. Oakland and Concord are both connected to the greater Bay Area by BART and have vibrant local scenes of their own.
Then you have to rehab the home to hipster tastes. That means openness, simplicity, and a vintage look. Check. Those are the built-in hallmarks of Eichlers.
Granted, only about 250 Eichlers are located in Concord and Oakland, but this notion of "flipping to the hip" extends both to other mid-century modern homes, and to other cities, provided the math works out. The Sacramento area, with its supply of Strengs, would be a good option too, based on realtor Steve Streng's comments to me last year.
Basically, it seems, anybody who gets a deal on a distressed mid-century modern property in the Bay Area stands a good chance of flipping it for a healthy profit as long as they just maintain the original look and avoid bargain-basement upgrades that will cost long-term profits.
Flipping to hipsters is easy when your home is already as cool as they come.

SAAC raises $4,795.93 in Northwest Conference Coin Drive Challenge
March 08, 2013
The Lewis & Clark Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) raised $4,795.93 over Friday, February 8 and Saturday, February 9 for the Northwest Conference (NWC) Coin Drive Challenge. All the money raised will be donated to Special Olympics Oregon.
The Student-Athlete Advisory Committee hosted a table outside of the J.R. Howard academic building with complimentary coffee, hot chocolate, and doughnuts on Friday morning. Throughout that same day, student-athletes from all 19 Lewis & Clark varsity teams wore their uniforms around campus taking donations from students, faculty, and whomever else they ran into. For the first time since the commencement of the coin drive, if a donation of $1 or more was made the contributor was entered into a raffle to win a variety of prizes. The prizes were donated by members of the Lewis and Clark community as well as local business. Prizes were raffled off during the Men's and Women's basketball games on Saturday evening.
"The raffle was an excellent idea that came directly from SAAC. It was a clever and fun way both to encourage more donations and attendance at the basketball games" Elena Hoff, SAAC ASLC representative.
On the Saturday morning, a group of 26 student-athletes and Director of Athletics, Clark Yeager, ventured down to Broughton Beach. Yeager and the student-athletes participated in "Polar Plunge," a fundraiser for Special Olympics Oregon that involved a crisp dip into the Columbia River.
Apart from the raffle, SAAC hosted a silent auction during the basketball games on the evening of ninth. All the proceeds from the silent auction were raised for Special Olympics Oregon.
Also new this year was a grand prize raffle. Archer Travel (the travel agency that handles travel for all Lewis & Clark teams) donated a free two-day trip to Las Vegas, NV. Individuals who donated $20 or more were entered into this special raffle for a chance to win this wonderful prize. Winning the grand prize this year was Lewis & Clark recent graduate Kathleen McGinley.
"We would like to thank all those who participated in the drive," said SAAC Treasurer Drew LeDonne, "we are especially appreciative of the community members who donated raffle and silent auctions items, that was a big help and a huge catalyst for the increased levels of participation we saw this year. Our goal is to grow this thing as big as we can in the years to come and this year was a big step forward".
SAAC looks forward to continuing their great partnership with Special Olympics and will keep everyone updated regarding any initiatives in the future.
At the NWC SAAC meeting hosted by Willamette on Sunday, March 3 all nine schools convened to compare fundraiser amounts. The final tally came in with Lewis & Clark in first place, having raised more money than all the other the other schools combined.
During the meeting, junior football/track & field athlete Matt DeRosa was selected to be the NWC SAAC President for the 2013-14 year. Sophomore Glenna Andrews will also represent the Pioneers on the conference SAAC committee, being selected as the next secretary.

Mexican police get training from FBI, SAPD
Clad in face masks, half a dozen Mexican police officers swiftly swarmed into the dimly lit building with their handguns drawn.
"There's a hallway up ahead and a stairway over there," one quietly told the others in Spanish before leading the crouching men inside. The sound of gunfire erupted moments later.
"They're like paint bullets," FBI Special Agent Erik Vasys said, describing the pellets whizzing around the room. "They leave a mark. You know immediately if you've been hit, if you're exposed from your hiding position. It's really effective for training."
The simulation, held Wednesday morning at the San Antonio Police Department's training facility, was part of the Mexican American Liaison and Law Enforcement Training, an event coordinated annually in Texas by the FBI.
"The training they give us is very important, because it's something else to help us do our jobs," Francisco Javier Ortega, a federal police officer based in Victoria, said in Spanish.
Ortega was one of about 20 Mexican officials selected to participate in the session, which included training exercises in day-to-day police tactics like properly firing a weapon and apprehending a hostile subject. The training sessions have been held in Texas the past 18 years, Vasys said, and are part of an effort to help agencies coordinate efforts across the border and share new tactics.
Law enforcement tactics often are developed in the United States before they're shared with other countries, Vasys said.
"When it comes to law enforcement, tactics are almost like fashion, they start either in New York or L.A. and spread to the rest of the country and eventually the rest of the world," Vasys said. "Law enforcement in the United States is seen as the best in day-to-day tactics."

Brewers beat Cubs on squeeze bunt
Schafer's ninth-inning heroics wins it
MILWAUKEE — Pinch-hitter Logan Schafer dropped a suicide squeeze bunt with the bases loaded in the ninth to give the Milwaukee Brewers a 4-3 walkoff victory over the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday night.
Aramis Ramirez singled to open the inning off Justin Grimm (0-2), who came on to start the ninth.
Jeff Bianchi ran for Ramirez and advanced on Carlos Gomez's single to center. Grimm then mishandled Scooter Gennett's sacrifice bunt for an error to load the bases.
After Caleb Gindl popped out, Bianchi put down a slow roller toward the mound, scoring Bianchi.
Cubs starter Jeff Samardzija struck out eight in seven innings, giving him 203 strikeouts in 201 2-3 innings this season. He's the first Cubs pitcher to reach both 200 strikeouts and 200 innings in a season since Ryan Dempster in 2010.
Gomez drove in three runs for Milwaukee with a two-run homer and a sacrifice fly.

Chris' Camera Bag
A Photo Web log by Chris Young
Mirror, mirror
This week's cool weather has been a boon for those who love outdoors activities.
Two clear, calm and cool evenings in a row offered a chance to explore a pair of lakes at the Jim Edgar Panther Creek State Fish and Wildlife Area near Chandlerville.
The calm waters almost perfectly mirrored the scene above.
Jim Edgar Panther Creek is about 40 minutes west, northwest of Springfield.
The site features three man-made lakes, several fishing ponds, campgrounds and plenty of equestrian and mountain biking trails.
If you weren't able to get out, take a timelapse tour of Drake Lake in the video, or simply enjoy the pictures.
