Bruce McPherson has pulled a Nathan Fletcher.
In the midst of his run for a seat on the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors, McPherson -- a former state legislator and lieutenant governor -- has left the Republican Party. The move resembles Assemblyman Nathan Fletcher's departure from the GOP during his recent campaign for San Diego mayor.
Both men said they were independent-minded people who were uncomfortable with the harsh partisanship of the party. That may be true, but both moves looked like political strategies for the races they were running in.
U.S. & World
Both were seeking local government posts in coastal California counties -- where it helps to be a blue Democrat, and where being a Republican can limit one's ability to win a majority. In both McPherson's case and Fletcher's case, there's more than a bit of brand protection in the movement; each man wanted to distance himself from the GOP brand.
The bad news for McPherson is that Fletcher lost, missing the ongoing runoff for San Diego mayor (though Fletcher did gain in the polls after the change). McPherson's position is stronger -- he nearly won a majority in the first round of voting -- but leaving the party is a risk. It may cost him the votes of Republicans, while it's unclear how much more warmly liberal Santa Cruz residents will feel towards a former Republican as opposed to a current Republican.
One final point: in California government, local races are officially non-partisan. You won't see party labels on the ballot. But they still matter. Which is why this new standard operating procedure -- leave the Republican Party if you plan to run for local office on the coast -- remains a political risk.

We remember Ron Mexico's contrite, emotional press conference from August, when he nearly broke down and talked about his love for the Lord. We found it an impressive confession. His initial confession was a bit less graceful.
It all came down to a bad polygraph.
During that interview an FBI polygrapher found Vick was being deceptive in denying he killed dogs. After Vick's lawyer, Billy Martin, was told this, he asked Vick about the failed test. At that moment, Martin told Hudson, Vick broke down.
"I did it all," Vick said, Martin related. "I did everything. If you need me to say more, I'll say more."
That initial hesitance to take responsibility was the reason the dog-loving judge hammered Vick yesterday, and why he's gonna ESPN's gonna make a lot of money off the Arena League in 2010.

Iranians wounded during protests are being seized at hospitals by members of an Islamic militia, an Amnesty International official told CNN.
"The Basijis are waiting for them," said Banafsheh Akhlaghi, western regional director of the human rights group, referring to the government's paramilitary arm that has cracked down on protesters during the violent aftermath of the June 12 presidential election.
Amnesty International has collected accounts from people who have left Iran and expatriates with relatives there who say the Basij has prohibited medical professionals from getting identification information from wounded demonstrators who check in, Akhlaghi said on Saturday. They are also not allowed to ask how the injuries happened, and relatives are hard pressed to find the wounded. Read full article »

My armpit skin is darker than the rest of my skin. Is there a way to lighten it?
Shaving and rubbing against rough fabrics (like winter wools) create friction, and that leads to inflammation and brown or grayish patches, says Jeanine Downie, a New Jersey dermatologist. Brighten up with a lotion that contains hydroquinone (a good one: Ambi Fade Cream, $5). Also, use a new razor every three shaves (dull ones irritate your pits), and slip on a tee before a sweater.

If the recently sidelined Jason Cummings thought he had his work cut out trying to force his way back into manager Neil Lennon's thinking prior to the weekend match, he could find it even tougher now.
Leading the line on Saturday, Martin Boyle and Grant Holt served up the goals needed to better bottom of the table St Mirren and while both passed up chances to add the gloss to the scoreline craved by their gaffer, Lennon said he was happy overall with the way the pairing had worked out.
They were up against a St Mirren side that started with good intentions and some attacking verve, but seemed to lose their way and their self-belief as time wore on. Boyle exposed that fragility when he opened the scoring in the eighth minute. An incisive ball through to him from Andrew Shinnie was all the invitation he needed and, through one on one with Jamie Langfield, he showed great composure to wait for the keeper to commit. As he went to ground, Boyle lifted the ball over him and into the empty net.
Not a bad start for a guy who has had to be patient this term and admitted to being shocked that he was given a starting berth ahead of the club's top scorer. "I was surprised," said Boyle. "It shows good faith in me. Hopefully I've repaid that by stepping up. I thought I linked up well with Holty and I am just happy to be in the team."
Most of his game time this season has come as a substitute but, following last weekend's injury to James Keatings, the 23-year-old forward was given the job of tapping into the experience of striking partner Holt and utilising his speed to give the visiting defence an uncomfortable afternoon. Boyle is a speed merchant and was a constant threat when running at the St Mirren rearguard and in behind them. He turned in a performance that earned him the man of the match award, a standing ovation from the fans and the right to get a run in the team.
"It's obviously been a bit frustrating, but I still enjoy coming to work every day," he said. "I'm just the type of boy who knuckles down and works hard. If I'm given my chance, I feel it's down to me to take it. We go out every game with a game plan and we had the top scorer on the bench, who can't even get a game just now, and we've got the likes of James Keatings as well. His injury has been my gain, but I need to keep producing performances like that."
St Mirren have changed managers in a bid to get themselves up the table and new gaffer Jack Ross says it is about reinforcing positives and convincing the players that the promise they showed in the early stages of this game, when Lewis Stevenson had to head a Ryan Hardie effort off the line, can be built on. But while that remains an issue, the gulf between the teams was all too evident, especially after Holt added a second on 34 minutes.
The second half was a procession, with Holt profligate in missing a penalty late on as Langfield guessed smartly and got down to save his effort, but Hibs created enough openings to win the game by four or five goals.

I have thought about a name to give this girl that I drew live yesterday and even though I know what I want to call her, I'm finding it difficult to give up the ghost and name it a devil girl. Her hair, face, and body pose is so epic and I absolutely love how proportionate I made her body. She has got to be the best female body and face sketch I have done thus far. Oh wait, did I even tell you what this lesson is on? It's going to be called, "how to draw a devil girl", step by step. She is sexy but sweet, hot but cold, and she is devilish, but also an angel too. The figure is going to be drawn in a side view profile but her face is fully viewable. One of the favorite things about this devil girl that I love is her long straight hair, and how I drew it falling off her shoulder. Some of her length is on her shoulder still, but the majority of her locks are hanging over her back. I had a lot of fun drawing her out while I was Live with all of you, and hopefully you all love learning "how to draw a devil girl" of your own. I will be back rather swiftly because I have more drawing fun coming your way. Peace out people and be sure not to spend too much time in her dwellings.

Yanks, Ryan make it official on two-year deal
The Yankees officially announced on Monday afternoon the signing of shortstop Brendan Ryan to a two-year contract with a mutual option for 2016.
The agreement is reportedly worth $5 million.
Ryan hit .220 with one home run in 17 games for the Yankees last season. He started each of the club's final 17 games at shortstop after being acquired from the Mariners on Sept. 10.
Ryan, who will turn 32 in March, is considered to be one of the Majors' best defensive shortstops, making him a potentially valuable utility man and a likely replacement for versatile infielder Jayson Nix. According to FanGraphs, Ryan recorded 22 Defensive Runs Saved in 2009 and '10, 18 in '11 and 27 in '12.
Ryan hit just .192 with three homers, 21 RBIs and 23 runs scored in 87 games for Seattle in 2013. Overall, in parts of seven Major League seasons, Ryan has a .237/.299/.320 batting line with 19 homers, 187 RBIs and 288 runs in 783 games.
Ryan was the Cardinals' seventh-round pick in the 2003 First-Year Player Draft and played with St. Louis from 2007-10 before joining Seattle in '11.

You'll be hearing from the staff at FOOD52 every week in Too Many Cooks, our group column in which we pool our answers to questions about food, cooking, life, and more.
We're sharing some of the best discoveries from our food lives. This week: We break coffee cups, eat fresh fruit in Mexico, and enjoy all kinds of desserts.
"On top: coffee siphons at the newly-opened Blue Bottle Coffee in Chelsea. The Paris Review gets its own Mast Bros. wrapping! Tad and I went to their annual benefit and this was in the goodie bag. Next is another few of the springtime asparagus-pea-artichoke mix from Walker and Addie's lunch (find the recipe there!). And can you guess what this is? It's a Delineator! It cooks bacon, toasts muffins, and poaches eggs all at the same time.""- Amanda
"Miniature spring flowers in our garden!"- Merrill
"I stumbled on this store on East 9th on a walk home and went in because the window said "Rain Gear & Candy". Apparently amé in Japanese means both "rain" and "candy" (so the store is called Amé Amé). It actually has an amazing selection of rainboots and umbrellas -- you should all go here when you need new ones, and get some candy while you're at it.
Nom Wah Tea Parlor on Doyers Street in Chinatown turned out to be a great spot to catch up on some work: a respectable wifi signal, my own little table by the window (with an outlet and its own mini-chandelier!), and all the sesame balls and tea I could handle. A+!"- Kristen
"Ramp butter on bread, with some more ramps (I can't get enough!) and an egg. And my first attempt at the NoMad-style radishes. If I had more radishes, I'd make another (and much prettier) batch. Plus, roasted carrot soup and some weekend reading."
- Kristy "Despite a trip to the Manhattan cheese mecca known as Murray's (can you say Cremeux de Bourogne?) and a morning at the Brooklyn Flea, home to dozens of New York artisanal food purveyors, the only decent photo I grabbed was of this delicious rosemary lemonade. So you'll have to settle for a photo of something else delicious... 3-month-old Charlie (who really shouldn't be allowed to change his own diapers)."- Peter
"I got home from work on Friday and decided that whisking up a batch of Pimentón aioli would be just the thing to start off the weekend. Apparently, I also decided that breaking one of my favorite coffee cups (a handleless black number we inherited from a Marxist poet friend who was moving back to England) would be just the thing to start of my Monday morning. And on Tuesday, I pulled my gorgeous ramp tart out of the oven, only to have it slide straight out of its pan and into the stove. We ate the crumbs as a sad "ramp pudding.""- Nozlee
"These are desserts that Michael Laiskonis made for his IACP classes at ICE. One is chocolate mousse with maple, caramel and salt in an egg and the other is fancy tres leches cake."- Stephanie
"Feta from cheese store in Sag Harbor, NY."- Jennifer
"Griddled polenta cakes with caramelized onions, goat cheese and honey, and strawberry jam-filled doughnuts for a Saturday brunch with family."- Anna
"A light lunch of radicchio, arugula, fresh peas, beets, chives, basil, and a lemon vinaigrette, and basil at the Greenmarket on a gorgeous, sunny day."- Laura
"An insane sundae at Alla Spina in Philadelphia: fior di latte soft serve, candied pretzels, and chocolate-covered bacon. Then, making Saturday morning oatmeal pancakes."- Brette
"Macaron Tower by yours truly, Dana's Bakery"- Dana
"A Baja Morning Breakfast: Fruit that tastes like fruit! Steaming Mexican fresh-pressed coffee and long sunrise shadows to start the day. And homemade Meyer Lemon-Thyme Bread -- the beauty of multi-tasking while working at home." - Christina

The Deer are Moving!
I received several emails this week from hunters that swear the bucks are going into rut already. Without having to explain all of the details, I mentioned to them that some of this behavior is typical this time of year and some is not. After hunting very hard this past weekend, I didn't notice anything unusual…until today.
Friday morning opened very well with great weather and some normal activity. After doing my duty and killing a west central IL. doe, I pushed forward in my quest to find one of the big bucks I have patterned this year. No such luck for me but nevertheless, the hunt was an enjoyable one. Back in central IL. on Sunday and today, I had more deer in front of me than I did ALL of last year combined! What a change from last year and even the last decade. With the corn out and the deer moving back into the timber, it was evident this year will be paramount to any other I've hunted in this area, as far as quantity goes. With many does, fork horns and fawns to choose from, I decided to let them all live. I would rather take another doe, where it's needed in west central IL, than here in central IL. where I haven't seen them thrive before. One odd thing happened today though. I watched a mature doe come out of the timber at 3:00 P.M. to feed, which is a bit early this time of year. Right behind her was a mature 3.5 year old 8 pointer with his nose to her rear-end. She allowed him to follower her with no signs of distress. Another buck showed up from another direction and he dropped his ears and marched forward with authority. The other buck held his ground and there was a stand-off for about 5 solid minutes. The original buck decided it wasn't worth his energy, so he casually walked back to the doe and began sniffing. Eventually, they all walked off quietly into the woods.
I haven't seen his type of activity this early. I would expect bachelor groups to spar and to remain grouped but I haven't even seen bachelor groups in the 100+ miles I hunt from farm-to-farm!. Unless someone here tells me differently, I believe they're already busted up! This could break my early harvest plan to pieces if I don't positively identify what's happening and act accordingly. I'm going to hunt closer to the bedding areas and the sanctuaries this week and test the waters. I'm also going to hit the staging areas in the evenings to see if they're still in preseason mode. If not, I'll go directly to plan B. Don't ask me what plan B is, I haven't planned it out yet!
I'm curious to see what you are seeing! Are you seeing anything else different this year? Is it about the same? Let me know your thoughts!Permalink

When you place an order the shipping amount will show $0.00. Soon after you place an order you will receive an email confirmation that shows the amount of shipping that was added to your order.

But it is not just Merkel's political party that is suffering from her decision no longer to police German borders. It is a costly exercise to allow vast numbers of poorly qualified migrants into the country. In December last year, the Kiel Institute for the World Economy estimated the annual costs of integrating Germany's migrants to be up to €55bn.
Meanwhile, economist Bernd Raffelhüschen, Germany's leading expert on generational accounting, calculated that integrating one million refugees would result in a total cost of €450bn.
However, that may be too optimistic on two counts. First, Germany has already received more than 1.1 million newcomers last year alone and more are coming. And second, Raffelhüschen assumed it would only take six years until new arrivals reached a qualification level comparable to previous migrants already in the country. If only.
The most extreme estimate for the costs of integrating is Thilo Sarrazin's. The former finance minister in the state of Berlin, former Bundesbank director and outspoken book author believes the lifetime costs, including family reunions, could reach EUR 1.5 trillion.
No matter what the real figure will be in the end, one thing is certain: The long-term costs of Merkel's policy are only comparable with historic events such as Germany's unification or the devastations caused by wars. And these are just the pecuniary costs of absorbing poorly qualified migrants. That there are social, cultural and political as well as economic and fiscal costs is plain to see.
With her policies, Merkel has also isolated Germany in Europe, as I already explained last week. Never before has post-War Germany had fewer friends and allies than in these days.
Finally, by ignoring international treaties, conventions and domestic constitutional law, Merkel has damaged trust in political institutions and the rule of law. Two former justices of Germany's Constitutional Court, Udo di Fabio and Hans-Jürgen Papier, have now publicly condemned her policies as illegal. Papier, a former president of the court, went so far to say that "never before has there been such a discrepancy between the law and reality".
During her tenure as Chancellor, Merkel has been responsible for a number of costly policy mistakes, chief among them the decision to switch off nuclear power stations after Fukushima and the establishment of costly bailout and guarantee schemes during the euro crisis. Each of them has burdened taxpayers with hundreds of billions of costs and implicit liabilities.
With her actions during the refugee crisis, Merkel is dwarfing even these previous policy blunders. If one were to add up all her mistakes, they can now be counted in the trillions. Again, these are just the monetary costs. In committing her mistakes, Merkel has also damaged her country's reputation, its integration into the European Union, the European Union as an institution, the rule of law, as well as political stability in Germany and its neighbours.
With such a record, any Chancellor should have resigned a long time ago — or be kicked out by voters or at least her own party. That Merkel still clings on to power only shows how successfully she had previously purged her party of any potential rivals.
No matter how long Merkel still manages to stay in office, she will go down in history as the worst chancellor post-war Germany has ever had. The sooner she goes the better.

Using KGpg with KMail
Finding you need to send top-secret email communication with KMail, but you don't know where to start? An article in Linux Journal (part of Marcel Gagné's "Cooking with Linux" series) shows you how to use the Gnu Privacy Guard (GnuPG) in conjunction with KGpg to secure your email. Learn how to generate and import keys, sign and encrypt email, and otherwise keep your private communication away from prying eyes.
One thing I would like in Kmail
I have my inbox set to forward things from comcast to a larger mailbox as an archive. I want my sent messages to be forwarded as well and sent to my inbox. In Mozilla this is easy to setup, but in Kmail I can't find a way to do this in a simple way.
This is something I use foten in Mozilla Mail and I haven't found a way to do this in Kmail. Any tips?
Anyway, Kmail is great and I still switched to it because I like it's integration and speed. Though secret messages are an added benefit! ;)
Thank you!

Re: One thing I would like in Kmail
I guess you could do that by setting a bcc: to your own email address
That way your account will receive a copy of each mail you send.
It's under Settings -> Configure KMail -> Identities
By cm at Sun, 2004/04/18 - 5:00am
Re: One thing I would like in Kmail
Hi Alex,
i'm using kmail with my local imap server. As i want to keep track of my sent emails, i store them in my imap mailbox. I've created a folder 'SENT' in my imap account, where i want to store them. In kmail's preferences -> identities on the extended tab (second tab on my kde 3.2.1 installation) you can set the folder for sent messages. If you have more than one outgoing email server, you only have to create an identity for each server and set the right outgoing mail server (needs to be configured before) on the same tab as above. This way, you can store mails to different mail servers in different folders.
Hope, this helps,

Re: One thing I would like in Kmail
Personally, I'd use a filter for this. Something like this:
Since I use the german version, I can't guarantee that all the options have the exact same names, but it should be possible to figure it out.

Thanks everyone
All these solutions work great. =)

PKCS#11 tokens support
What I would really like to see in KMail is support for PKCS#11 security tokens. Mozilla has it (Privacy & Security -> Certificates -> Manage security devices...) so I'm able to use my keypair residing in employer's security smartcard with Mozilla and don't have to mess around with generating new keypair and trustability of it.
By anon at Sun, 2004/04/18 - 5:00am
Re: PKCS#11 tokens support
Heck yeah! This is my #1 complaint about KMail. I've tried following the HOWTO for using openssl/certificate with signed/encrypted emails, but it is (1) overly complicated and (2) very flaky, when it works at all.
By repugnant at Sun, 2004/04/18 - 5:00am
Re: PKCS#11 tokens support
I second this motion. It gets real old fast having to resubmit my password to my certificate periodically when I don't have it set to be so.
Not to mention complaint number TWO:
Filters on IMAPD folders. Right now I move everything by hand but hell if Konqueror can SFTP via drag n' drop you'd think KMail could filter outside of the local mail folders.
By Marc J. Driftmeyer at Thu, 2004/04/22 - 5:00am
Re: PKCS#11 tokens support
Hi, currently i am doing a sch project on PKCS #11. I've read the documents on PKCS #11 found in RSA sites. But i still could not understand what is PKCS #11 about. Can anybody guide me?
By Joan at Wed, 2005/05/18 - 5:00am
Re: PKCS#11 tokens support
Sorry for the error, it should be PKCS #11 v2.11

Is it possible to detect the language of an email?
How can GnuPG be integrated in the spamfilter system. I think a web of trust is a good idea to avoid junk, my spam filtering relies on my whitelist.
By Bert at Sun, 2004/04/18 - 5:00am
PGP/Mime less useful than pgp encryption
While working with business partners and exchanging encrypted mail with kmail, I have discovered that actually very few pgp programs support pgp/mime (the way to send encrypted attachment directly with your mail).
So, I had to encrypt manually the document to all the person I want to send it to, and then attach the right encrypted document to the mail and send it. Very tedious. ThunderBird allows me to send encrypted documents using either pgp/mime or by encrypting them separately for each recipient. Because of this, I now use thunderbird to send encrypted emails!
The errors reported by kmail are also quite poor. One of my partner uses IDEA which is not in gpg. All kmail could tell me is that I entered a wrong passphrase although I just opened the mail.
I think there is still a lot of work to make kmail work seemlessly with encrypted stuff.
By Philippe Fremy at Sun, 2004/04/18 - 5:00am
How about S/Mime?
Well, GPG seems to work, but how about S/MIME? The support has been announced

Today, May 1, marks the commencement of Melanoma Awareness Month. Miami skin cancer doctor, Dr. Mariano Busso, is committed to growing the discussion and education on melanoma prevention and detection. As a skin cancer specialist, Dr. Busso helps patients with both early identification and treatment.
To kick off Melanoma Awareness Month 2017, consider the most current skin cancer facts and statistics, courtesy of skincancer.org¹:
- 20% of Americans will develop some form of skin cancer in their lifetime
- In the past 30 years, more people have been diagnosed with skin cancer than all other cancers combined
- Every 54 minutes, someone dies of melanoma
- In 2017, an estimated 9,730 people will die from melanoma
- Most melanoma cases are caused by sun exposure
- A person's risk of developing melanoma doubles if he or she has experienced more than five sunburns
- Applying SPF 15 or higher every day cuts the risk of developing melanoma in half
- Every year in the United States, over 5.4 million cases of non-melanoma skin cancer are treated in more than 3.3 million people
- The overwhelming majority (90 percent) of non-melanoma skin cancers are caused by UV sun radiation
- The most common form of skin cancer is basal cell carcinoma, with 4 million nationwide cases diagnosed annually
- Approximately half of Americans over 65 have or have had basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma at least once in their lifetimes
While visiting a skin cancer specialist for routine check-ups helps reduce your risk significantly, we also recommend regular self-checks from the comfort of your own home. Typically, skin cancer appears as an irregular circle or mole of 6mm or more, often dark or fluctuating in color.
For easy reference, consider the ABCDE's of proper melanoma detection:
A: Asymmetry, where one half of the spot is visibly different from the other
B: Borders, often irregular or difficult to define
C: Color, which changes three or more times in a singular spot
D: Diameter, usually greater than the size of a pencil eraser
E: Evolving, spots that change in size, shape or color over time
If you recognize any of the tell-tale skin cancer symptoms, contact Dr. Busso's office at 305-857-0144 immediately. All others are welcome to schedule a pre-emptive check-up, or simply learn more about Melanoma Awareness Month and risk reduction strategies by calling or booking an appointment online.

OneNote is, as you've seen in the prior posts (OneNote for Interaction Designers and OneNote for Interaction Designers: the Nuts and Bolts, awesome for design meetings. But it's also useful in research and client presentations, too.
How we use it in research
[From the video, slightly edited:] Having a laptop open in a research interview puts a barrier between you and the person you're interviewing, and the typing can be quite distracting and intimidating for the interviewee. But typed notes are searchable, making for very useful reference when you're synthesizing your notes. OneNote is a nice compromise. With a Tablet in slate mode, we remove the physical barrier of the laptop, and as long as you have the pen in a "Create Handwriting" mode, you can later go back and search your notes as if they were typed. (The handwriting recognition is pretty amazing.)
We sometimes have interviews by phone, and in these cases we often type notes. OneNote can go back and forth pretty seamlessly between handwriting and text, so it keeps all notes in one place. Also I find the quick-keys for adding tags to notes to be very useful when typing. You can tag questions you have, comments for follow-up, and ideas you generate, all with the quick stroke of a key.
For really important meetings, we can also use the audio recording features, which gives the ability to later go back and click on a piece of handwriting to hear what was being said at the time. Unfortunately you have to be using an external microphone for this, or all you hear is the tap-tap-tapping of the stylus hitting the slate surface instead of insightful interview conversation.
And I should note that research is not where OneNote shines the most. There are a few competing tools, like the LiveScribe Echo SmartPen and even pen and paper and that are giving it a run for its money. But as long as we're outfitting our designers with the Tablet, OneNote is a fine tool to use during research.
Design Presentations
Presenting to stakeholders directly in OneNote—in lieu of more formal presentation software—helps convey the idea that these are ideas in progress and open to iteration. OneNote has a semi-hidden tool for making such a presentation easy.
[From the video, slightly edited:] When sharing OneNote drawings directly with a client, we'll launch GotoMeeting or some other web meeting software and share the program. We'll have a conversation via phone, and use OneNote's "John Madden" mode to draw the client's attention to the thing we're discussing. (I think the official name is "Use Pen as Pointer" but nobody around here calls it that) which makes marks that automatically disappear after about six seconds. We'll circle things of importance and reinforce connections between screens using that mode.
Though we're really focused on the content of these meetings, the first time clients see us interacting with OneNote, they're often wowed enough to ask us how we're doing it. And we've converted several clients to using similar setups once they see it in action.
Stuff you have to overcome
[From the video:] OneNote is not perfect for our purposes. Not yet, anyway. To use it in your practice, there are a few things you have to overcome. (Note for this section I'm talking about the current version at the time of this writing. The Windows 8 version is in pre-release beta, but isn't fleshed out enough for us to know which of these problems will be solved on its actual release.)
Admittedly, we are not the target users for this program. (It's meant for&emdash;surprise&emdash;taking notes, not design. Microsoft! Call us. We'll help you redesign this sucker.) That means there are several things you have to overcome to make it work for design's purposes.
Moving graphics by themselves snaps them to an invisible grid, and there's nothing you can do about it, unless you have a drawn line as part of the selection. To gain the ability to move graphics down to the pixel, if you don't already have a hand drawn line to include in your selection, you have to make one and then erase or delete it.
It has crummy layer control. In fact, you can't control the layers of handwritten lines at all, unless you happen to have a graphic selected with it. So you have to get used to having a small graphic available at all times.
You can't lock anything in place. This makes it frustrating when you just want to select some lines that sit amidst a bunch of other stuff. Other than turning your background into a graphic using Snag-It, there's no good workaround for this. You just have to become an expert selector.
It doesn't know "symbols" like in Illustrator or Fireworks, so if you make a change on a drawing that affects all other drawings, you have some work ahead of you to synch them all up.
It tries to do its best to distinguish between handwriting (words) and drawings, but sometimes it gets it wrong, and moving what it thinks is text can result in very strange results as it tries to rearrange the rest of your "text." The only way to avoid this is to switch to "Create Drawings" only
Thanks, OneNote
Despite these shortcomings, OneNote in the setup described above is the best tool we have for getting early design ideas out in the world fast so the team can evaluate and iterate them. There's a learning curve, but once up to speed, our designers tend not to look back. Clients love it, too, as it's novel, and of course they certainly appreciate our ability to save them money by not trying to iterate the same ideas in more expensive and time-consuming media. Until a better setup comes along, this is how we'll be doing design sketches.
Cooper thinks hard about how it is we do what we do, but it's just our way. Had different experiences or workarounds for some of the problems? Let us know in the comments below. We love to hear it.

Parisien Confirms Team RACE Signing
At the beginning of the week (Monday) we broke the story that François Parisien was planning on leaving Team Symmetrics because he would not be selected for the Philly Week and Tour de Beauce team projects, which would severely impact his plans to make the Beijing Olympic squad.
A day later Frank confirmed that he was leaving Symmetrics (effective June 1st), and hoped to have a new team lined up within a week. Well, it has happened even more quickly than expected, with Parisien confirming that he will join Steve Bauer's Team RACE Pro squad for the remainder of the season.
"I don't have the contract in my hands yet, but I've already picked out my bike (Argon 18), my handlebars, saddle ... so I think it is pretty much done," said a relieved sounding Parisien from his home.
Part of the reason that the deal came together so quickly was that Parisien had come close to signing with Team RACE Pro at the beginning of the season.
"I was talking at the beginning of the year with Steve [Bauer], and I almost signed with them before going to Symmetrics. When Team RACE Pro heard that I was looking for a team they jumped on the phone right away to talk with me."
"I'm very happy to go with them, because it will be a much easier transition to go with another Canadian team. On this team I know all the riders. The team is doing a great job, I think, they are very organized and professional."
Parisien will join the team as of June 1st. "I am still racing for Symmetrics up until then; tomorrow I will race for Symmetrics, and I will still do the Kelly Cup and Tour of Somerville [for Symmetrics]. The CSC Invitational will be the first race with Team RACE Pro, then Philly and Beauce for sure; that was my goal. After that I will make my preparation for the national championships, then possibly BC Superweek and then, hopefully, the Olympics."
Parisien can now reveal that he was talking with five teams: Team RACE Pro, Team Type 1, Kelly Benefits, Jittery Joes and Rite Aid. However, "the problem with most of the teams was that their roster for Philly was already done. But I had good discussions with all of the teams, and I will keep in contact with them for future years."
As for Philly, "I don't know the roster yet, all I know is that I'm going to do it. I have achieved my goals, so I am happy; nothing could have worked out better."

The fourth Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) H-II Transfer Vehicle, or HTV-4, launched aboard an H-IIB launch vehicle from the Tanegashima Space Center in southern Japan at 3:48 p.m. EDT Saturday (4:48 a.m. Sunday, Japan time) to begin a weeklong journey to the International Space Station. Also known as Kounotori, or "white stork," because it is emblematic of an important delivery, HTV-4 is carrying more than 3.5 tons of supplies, food and experiment hardware for the station's Expedition 36 crew. At the time of launch, the station was flying 260 statute miles over southwest Russia near the border of Kazakhstan.
On Friday, Aug. 9, the HTV-4 will approach the station from below and inch its way slowly toward a holding position about 40 feet from the complex. While Flight Engineer Luca Parmitano monitors the systems of the Japanese space freighter, Flight Engineers Karen Nyberg and Chris Cassidy of NASA will use Canadarm2, the station's Canadian Space Agency-provided robotic arm, to reach out and capture the vehicle at 7:29 a.m. With HTV-4 securely grappled, the robotics team at Houston's Mission Control Center will command the arm to install the vehicle to its docking port on the Earth-facing side of the Harmony node beginning around 9:30 a.m.
|The H-II Transfer Vehicle-4 separates from the H-IIB launch vehicle second stage.

HTV-4 is a 33-foot-long, 13-foot-diameter (10 meter by 4 meter) unmanned cargo transfer spacecraft with both pressurized and unpressurized sections to deliver supplies destined for inside and outside the station.
Among the items within Kounotori's pressurized logistics carrier are test samples for research experiments inside the Kibo laboratory, a new freezer capable of preserving materials at temperatures below -90 F, four small CubeSat satellites to be deployed from Kibo's airlock as well as food, water and other supplies for the station's crew. The pressurized section also is delivering new hardware for the Robotic Refueling Mission to demonstrate robotic satellite-servicing tools, technologies and techniques.
The HTV-4's unpressurized section is delivering two orbital replacement units (ORUs) – a spare Main Bus Switching Unit (MBSU) and a spare Utility Transfer Assembly (UTA) – to keep the space station's electrical system operating smoothly. The UTA maintains electrical continuity through the Solar Alpha Rotary Joint, passing electrical power generated by the complex's huge solar arrays to station elements and payloads, while the MBSU provides switching capabilities for the various power channels and sources. ORUs are modular station components designed to be replaced periodically.
Also inside HTV's unpressurized cargo hold is the Space Test Program – Houston 4 (STP-H4) payload, which is a suite of seven experiments for investigating space communications, Earth monitoring and materials science. Its predecessor, STP-H3, which was delivered to the station during the final flight of space shuttle Endeavour in May 2011, will be placed inside Kounotori's unpressurized section for disposal when the cargo craft departs in September and descends to a destructive re-entry over the Pacific Ocean.

Over the next year, arts directors from Interlochen will share their vision for the future of their discipline at the Arts Academy. This is the first of the series and will focus on the future of the theatre program. William Church is the Director of Theatre at Interlochen Center for the Arts, the Director of Comparative Arts at Interlochen Arts Academy, and serves as the Artistic Director for the Interlochen Shakespeare Festival, which he founded in 2008. He is a 1989 graduate of Interlochen Arts Academy.
When I was a theatre major at Interlochen Arts Academy, Grunow Theatre was our only space. It was a quaint and rustic venue with low ceilings and creaky floors. As a member of the theatre community service team, one of my responsibilities was to chase the skunks and raccoons away from the building before performances. All of us loved the experience and I still reminisce about my days as a theatre student in Grunow with great fondness … but I don't miss the skunks and raccoons.
More than two decades later, and as the new director of the theatre department, I often marvel at the changes that have taken place. As someone who left Interlochen and returned decades later, I can relate to those theatre alumni who discover the program they remember so fondly has become something that looks quite different - at first glance. With a closer look, however, alumni soon discover that today's students and faculty are continuing the same traditions of artistry that have always been part of theatre at the Academy. With that in mind, I want to tell you about today's theatre program and how we are striving to make the next fifty years as meaningful and significant as the decades that have passed.
Returning alumni will quickly notice the most visible changes to the theatre department: the facilities of today are quite different from those of the late 1980s. We work in the dynamic Harvey Theatre complex, a building that exists because of a generous gift from Jim Harvey, who was on the theatre faculty at Camp from 1953 to 1987, serving many of those years as director. Jim always believed that the theatre program deserved better than Grunow, a building that has since been condemned and completely rebuilt as a summer rehearsal space. The Harvey complex features a 178-seat three-quarter thrust space with a suspension grid, top-notch scene and costume shops, multiple classroom spaces and offices. This year, the Phoenix Theatre has returned to life after a major renovation and provides the students with a large, well-equipped black box theatre and an infinite number of staging possibilities. The theatre department also utilizes Corson Auditorium every year, often filling the large auditorium for multiple performances of musical theatre productions.
Our theatre facilities are essential resources that serve to attract talented students and faculty from all over the country. Potential students often participate in strong high school, community or children's theatre programs, many of which have excellent facilities. And once they take a closer look at the instruction that happens within our buildings, they realize that the educational and artistic experience we offer at the Academy far exceeds anything they can find at home.
The mentorship and guidance of our faculty has a lasting impact on students. I had the privilege of studying with David Montee in his earliest years at Interlochen and still carry many valuable lessons from that experience. The faculty has grown in recent years to maintain appropriate class sizes and personal attention as we welcome more students into our expanded facilities. As the demand for our theatre program continues to grow, student skills and potential remain very high; we continue to turn students away. Anyone who has seen a recent performance will know that we continue to attract bright and talented students. With new instructors, we look for a wide range of educational and professional experiences as well as a sense of continued professionalism and dedication; these are characteristics that students and parents have come to expect from the Academy. Expectations are high that our instructors will bring new pedagogies, practices, fresh viewpoints and energy to our program. New instructors like Gulshirin Dubash, a graduate of the Dell'Arte School of Physical Theatre, embody the Interlochen ideals of artist mentorship. I hope to see many theatre alumni at the reunion this May, when I will have an opportunity to introduce the wonderful artists and educators on our theatre faculty.
The curriculum continues to provide a strong fundamental understanding of acting theory and practice. The core training class in theatre is Acting Technique. While each of our five acting instructors takes their own approach to teaching the class, they share a fundamental goal: providing a core technique that emphasizes inner truthfulness and the importance of the ensemble to help our young actors rigorously hone their craft.
As students acquire a foundational process to their work, we also encourage them to develop specialized skills and a deeper understanding of their art form. Many of the course titles will sound familiar to Academy theatre alumni, but we have expanded the options to include several courses in musical theatre as well as Acting for the Camera, Theatre History and even a class in World Theatre. You can see the full list of course descriptions here.
The opportunity to perform is a cornerstone of the Academy theatre experience and we are increasing the range of performance opportunities available to our students. We stage bold and innovative productions of quality material that could only be achieved at a school like Interlochen Arts Academy, and our expectations continue to grow. A typical year now includes two musicals, a Shakespeare play, a presentation of one-acts, and two other titles that range from classical to contemporary. In addition to our six-production season, students are featured in many films created by the motion picture arts majors and collaborate frequently with other disciplines.
This spring we will perform "West Side Story," the first time this work has been performed at the Arts Academy. Fittingly, the timing coincides with the 50th anniversary of the Academy and the release of the "West Side Story" movie. It is a difficult production for the actors and musicians alike, but our students are eager for the challenge. I am looking forward to documenting this effort and sharing it with you this spring.
The future of Theatre at Interlochen will be built on the strong foundation that has been thoughtfully constructed over the past fifty years. But the program must also evolve, embrace a wide range of techniques, build the collaborations with film, dance and music that are taking root in professional theatres across the country, and bring new ideas and energies to match the passion of our future students. We owe them the best, a commitment to unquestioned excellence, if we are to continue our tradition of preparing the next generation of theatre artists who will shape the art form in the years to come.

In this article, we are taking a look at the duties God gave to man in the Garden of Eden and has served as convention for all men for all generation to come.
- Genesis 2:7-8 "Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. The LORD God planted a garden toward the east, in Eden; and there He placed the man whom He had formed". The word "Eden" is a Hebrew word for "where God dwells", so the first thing God gave man was "His Presence". So the first thing a man needs is NOT a woman; it is the presence of God, and a woman should meet him in the presence of God. Eve met Adam in Eden.
- The next thing God gave man after putting him in the Garden was WORK. The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it (Gen. 2:15).
- The FIRST WORK God gave man was; The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it … (Gen. 2:15). The word "work" here means cultivate, develop, educate; bring out the best in everything, to maximize the potentials of everything and everyone around you; to make everything fruitful. And God only said that to the male. As a man your job is to take the raw material and develop it into something fruitful.
The woman you are looking for doesn't exist; she's your dream woman. You WILL NOT meet your wife well defined. It is your duty to develop her into the woman you want. So whatever you cultivate her into, it's what you have. The male was created by God to create whatever he wants.
If your wife is putting a little weight and you don't like that, don't criticize her; it's your duty to take care of her not be become obese.
You don't like the way she dresses, man, it's your duty to teach her to dress or help her attend a fashion institution to learn how to dress. If she cannot speak good English, send her to school and pay her tuition fee.
- The SECOND WORK God said to man was; "The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to take care of it" (Gen. 2:15). The man has to be the protector of everything under his care. That's why God gave you a stronger bone frame. A bigger muscle mass, not to abuse the woman, but to protect the woman.
God gave man work before giving him a woman. That means a man needs a job before he gets a woman. God's priorities are very clear.
- The next thing God gave man was HIS Word, "And the LordGod commanded the man, saying, "You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die". God told man not to touch the tree; God never told the woman about the tree. Which means it was the man who received the word of God and his job was to teach his wife the word of God (Genesis 18:19). That is why most women look out for a word from their husband before acting on a matter.
Lastly and the Lord God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him". What man did God made mention of? The man who is:
- In his presence
- Has a job (working)
- Can Cultivate
- Can protect
- Can teach
Now let us note The LORD God did not go straight to give man a woman, before giving him the ABOVE DUTIES. Some men do not complete these duties but rush to look for a wife. The assignment from God to man must be accomplished sequentially and not randomly. And so we have some men who are married, but they are not complete. Because they have shortcut the procedure.
So this is it, marriage is the last command The LORD God gave man. Marriage is a necessity, but there are more necessary things man must take a look at. If you are woman and you meet a man who doesn't like God's presence, isn't working, can't cultivate you, can't protect you and can't teach you, then it is good for that man to be alone.

Eddie Vedder & Pearl Jam must have had the same feeling sharing the stage with Neil Young here as Travis Snider did the first time he stepped onto the diamond with Scott Rolen.
That Neil - always representin'. Boss.
Big four game set in New Yankee Stadium starts today. We know one game is a virtual lock (I'm not saying which - what am I, an idiot? Wait - don't answer that), so taking two of four from the skanks seems reasonable, right? RIGHT?!?

This summer, Alisa from Namco's monster hunting game God Eater Burst is getting her own figurine. It's not very subtle! And at ¥8,190 (US$101), the 1/7 scale figure is not exactly cheap, either.
God Eater is one of the PSP's most successful titles in Japan. The series is similar to Monster Hunter, but does offer its own twist on hunting monsters with large weapons, like Alisa wields.
Check out pictures of the figure in the above gallery.

Hey guys, Dawn here with another lesson on anime. I had lots of fun drawing this particular style due to my interest in bananas. I've seen my recent anime face tutorial shot up into the top 50 pretty quick. I wanted to please the audience with another anime girl, in a more interesting aspect. When you draw anime, you've got to realize that the features and the head depend greatly on size, which depicts them from regular cartoon characters. Make sure you keep the eyes large and galaxy to imply a new style. I've had SO much fun designing this girl, so I hope you will too! Keep in check for more anime tutorials I'll post in the future.
DragoArt members upload artwork and drawing tutorials! They are also allowed to leave comments on tutorials, profiles, etc. Many more features, as well; it's way better than just being a boring guest! Register Now!

BANGALORE (India), February 6 (RIA Novosti) - India is to equip its Perspective Multirole Fighter (PMF) variant of the Russian T-50 fifth-generation combat aircraft with avionics similar to Russia's version of the plane, United Aircraft Corporation President Mikhail Pogosyan said on Wednesday.
"The future plane (PMF) will have not only the same airframe, but also an integrated system of onboard equipment," Pogosyan said, stressing this was a requirement of the Indian Air Force.
Details of the PMF design will be specified after the relevant contracts with India are signed, he said.
The PMF will have such advanced features as stealth, supersonic cruise speed, high maneuverability, an integrated set of avionics, and an advanced threat-warning system, according to Sukhoi.
The fighter is being developed on the basis of the Russian perspective aviation complex (PAK FA), of which T-50 is a prototype, to India's stringent technical requirements. Further development of the program envisages design and development of a two-seat variant and integration of an advanced engine with increased thrust. The two sides are supposed to cooperate in joint marketing of the aircraft in other countries.
Analysts say India's choice of Russian avionics is a logical step and in line with previous joint programs.
"It would be reasonable to assume that the model adopted for India's Su-30MKI [fighter jet purchase from Russia] would be continued with regard to its purchase of Russia's fifth-generation fighter, based on the Sukhoi T-50 prototype," said Douglas Barrie, air warfare analyst at the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies.
"The Indian Su-30MKI has some non Russian-standard avionics systems, but the baseline platform, propulsion and sensors are very much Russian, with final assembly of the aircraft in India. The PMF will, I suspect, be to all intents the production standard of the T-50, again perhaps with some non-Russian avionics and systems," he added.
The PMF project began following a Russian-Indian agreement on cooperation in the development and production of perspective multirole fighter, signed on October 18, 2007. In December 2010 Russian arms sales agency Rosoboronexport, India's Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and aircraft maker Sukhoi Company signed a preliminary design development contract for the new aircraft.
In mid-January, Russia's prototype Sukhoi T-50 made out its first long-range flight from a manufacturing plant in Russia's Far East to an airfield near Moscow. The plane flew 7,000 kilometers (4,350 miles), making two landings on the way.
The plane joined three other T-50 prototype models at the Zhukovsky flight test center, prior to state flight tests which are scheduled to start in March 2013. A fifth prototype aircraft is being built at the Komsomolsk-on-Amur factory in Siberia.
The T-50 first flew in January 2010 and was presented to the public at the Moscow Air Show in 2011. The Russian Defense Ministry is planning to finish the state flight tests of eight prototypes by 2015, with production starting around 2016.
The T-50, which will be the core of Russia's future fighter fleet, is a fifth-generation multirole combat aircraft featuring elements of "stealth" technology, super-maneuverability, super-cruise capability (supersonic flight without use of afterburner), and an advanced avionics suite including an X-band active phased-array radar.

Free Comedy
Freaknik ($5)
May 11th 10:00 PM
Hosted by Noah Gardenswartz, & Andy Sandford
Starting in 1982, the city of Atlanta threw an annual party called "Freaknik" which essentially became the largest black spring break party in the country. The party became so big and wild that the city shut it down for good in 1996, but we're all in luck, because comedians Andy Sandford, Noah Gardenswartz and Steve Forrest are bringing Freaknik back, and they're bringing it to Long Island City! "Comedy Freaknik" will be a lot like the original Freaknik, except it's going to happen once a month, and it will be a comedy show hosted by three white guys. That's basically the ONLY difference.

Our story on Melissa Harris-Perry's collective ownership of children has prompted the MSNBC host to post a Twitter response. On Monday afternoon, she posted the following straight out of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount:
Matthew 5:44.
— Melissa Harris-Perry (@MHarrisPerry) April 8, 2013
The verse reads: "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you."
It seems odd that Ms. Harris-Perry would cite one of the most important verses in the New Testament in an effort to discount the arguments of her critics, including Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh. Is she aligning herself with Matthew and the early Christians who suffered persecution under the Romans?
Ms. Harris-Perry philosophy – the collectivization of children – is closer to that of Mao, who specifically rejected Matthew 5:44 as impossible until the capitalist class system was destroyed.
Mao's Red Guard specialized in turning millions of children against their parents and indoctrinating them in hardcore communism. Instead of universal love, Mao declared "the sign of a true revolutionary was his desire to kill."
Mao put this into practice. He killed nearly 80 million people.

Home > Research Articles > Measure Calls for Wider Access to Federally Financed Research
New York Times
Thursday, June 26, 2003
By WARREN E. LEARY
ASHINGTON, June 25 — A group challenging the power of established scientific journals says legislation will be introduced to make the results of all federally financed research available to the public.
The group, the Public Library of Science, which includes scientists, doctors, researchers and their public supporters, plans to announce legislation on Thursday that would give taxpayers greater access to scientific data.
The group's objective is an open system of scientific publishing that would bypass the current system, which centers on journals that charge, through their subscriptions, for access to results.
The measure places results of research financed primarily by the government into the public domain so access cannot be prohibited by copyright, said Dr. Michael B. Eisen, a co-founder of the library, and a biologist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The bill also calls on federal agencies to improve access to their research results.
Representative Martin Olav Sabo, Democrat of Minnesota, is to introduce the measure, called the Public Access to Science Act. A spokesman said that Mr. Sabo was concerned about patients' access to the latest medical research and that he would seek co-sponsors for the bill.
American taxpayers invest about $45 billion a year in scientific and medical research, and the results should be readily available to them, Mr. Sabo said.
"It defies logic to collectively pay for our medical research, only to privatize its profitability and availability," he said in a statement.
Dr. Harold E. Varmus, president of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York and chairman of the Public Library of Science, said the legislation would help get out the message that scientific results should be more easily available to more people.
"Privately owned journals can't tie up scientific information, and people should begin discussing this issue," Dr. Varmus said.
The Public Library of Science, with the help of a $9 million grant from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, will begin publishing an online, peer-reviewed journal on biology in October, followed by a medical science journal early next year.
Access to the journals is to be free, and the operating expenses are to be financed by $1,500 fees charged to researchers whose papers appear. Most research grants are large enough to include payments for publishing results, proponents say.
Traditional journals like Nature and Science publish papers at no charge to researchers but recoup costs and sometimes make profits with advertising and paid subscriptions, on paper and online.
Dr. Alan I. Leshner, chief executive of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, which publishes the journal Science, said everyone concerned with scientific publishing was looking for the best way to improve assess to information on the Internet and elsewhere.
"We are all looking for the best model to assure access to quality scientific information," Dr. Leshner said, "We're experimenting with different methods to do the same thing."
Science magazine, for instance, is giving free online access to institutions in developing countries and providing site licenses to hundreds of universities so that everyone on those campuses has free access.

D'Urzo Demolition Inc. v. Damaris Developments Inc., 2012 ONSC 1912 (CanLII), released by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice on March 26, 2012, serves as a good reminder to owners and contractors of the importance of ensuring a mutual understanding of the specifications and other requirements of the work and then properly incorporating those documents and requirements into the construction contract. For litigation lawyers, it also serves as a good reminder of the importance of ensuring that adequate and flexible evidence of damages (whether Plaintiff's damages or a Defendant's claim for set-off) is obtained and brought to trial.
Basic Facts
In a nutshell, D'Urzo Demolition Inc. ("D'Urzo") was the successful bidder to demolish structures on a property in Toronto and then mechanically reduce the rubble into smaller crush. The owner, Damaris Developments Inc. ("Damaris"), took the position that the contract required D'Urzo to crush the concrete to ¾ inch and to also demolish curbs and asphalt and remove same from the site. D'Urzo took the position that it only had to reduce the rubble to size of 3 inches (and that a smaller crush would constitute an extra) and that demolishing the asphalt and curbs and removing same from the site was not included in the scope of work and, again, constituted an extra. At the end of the day, D'Urzo was substantially successful at trial – Damaris succeeded only in achieving a finding that the asphalt and curbs had to be demolished – D'Urzo succeeded in convincing the Court that the contract only required a 3 inch crush, that the asphalt should not have been required to be removed from the site and disposed of, and that Damaris was in breach of the contract for failing to pay.
Take Away Notes
Of note for contractors and owners – the work was put out for tender, there were competitive bids, and the parties used a standard form (CCDC2) contract and they still ended up in protracted litigation (the lien was filed in May, 2007 and trial did not conclude until December, 2011 – almost 5 years!) arising from a failure to clearly and properly set out what work was required by the contract. If you are going to go to the trouble of putting a job out for tender and then use a detailed and established form of contract, spend the time and money to make sure that the specifications and drawings that establish the scope of work are both clear and properly incorporated by the contract.
Of note for lawyers – Damaris claimed $50,400.00 as its back charge to remove and dispose of the asphalt and curbs and provided evidence that this was what it cost. But Master Albert found at trial that D'Urzo only had to remove the asphalt, not dispose of it. Because Damaris' evidence didn't breakdown the back charge between removal and disposal, Master Albert had only D'Urzo's evidence that the cost to remove the asphalt was $2,643.75 and he awarded that amount. This outcome highlights the risk of evidence limited to global amounts that aren't broken down into component parts in case of divided findings at trial.
