The Return of PhoneSaberThursday 11th September 2008
There have been rumors aplenty that PhoneSaber would return in an official form to the App Store, and I am very happy to announce that it will indeed return, and should be available on the App Store soon.
The app will have a new name and a whole new look. The new version, Lightsaber Unleashed, will have a strong link to the new multi-platform title Star Wars ®: The Force Unleashed™, which is out soon. Lightsaber Unleashed will feature exciting characters from this new game as well as vastly improved graphics, sound effects and optional dueling music (which was a popular request).
We are still going to be publishing the application, and it will still be free. News will be posted here as it unfolds, but we hope users will be able to update their copy of PhoneSaber to the new LightSaber Unleashed when it becomes available through the App Store. In the mean time, enjoy some screenshots of what you can expect after the jump! Read the rest of this entry »

Cove Lake State Park's 717 acres are situated in a beautiful mountain valley on the eastern edge of the Cumberland Plateau. Scenic nature trails lead through a diversity of wetlands and woodlands offering wildlife viewing for the nature enthusiast. A paved walking/bike trail also provides easy access to all park facilities. Visitors can spend the day fishing or simply sitting back and capturing the picturesque vista Cove Lake offers.
In the 1920s, several groups began lobbying state and federal legislators for the construction of a dam at the confluence of the Clinch River and Cove Creek to control flooding and to also provide electricity to the area. The project was initially known as the Cove Creek Project, but after the Tennessee Valley Authority assumed control of the project in 1933, it became known as the Norris Project. The project was named for Nebraska senator George Norris, who had also advocated the creation of TVA in the early 1930s. The construction of Norris Dam began in 1934 and the dam's gates were closed in 1936, effectively creating the Norris Reservoir.
The Tennessee Valley Authority constructed Caryville Dam to protect the town of Caryville from the Norris Reservoir, which would extend for several miles up Cove Creek. Regardless, several of the town's structures were condemned or moved, and two highways had to be rerouted. TVA also planned Cove Lake State Park as one of the Norris Project's three demonstration recreational areas, the other two being Norris Dam State Park and Big Ridge State Park along the main reservoir to the east.
Hiking is a popular activity within the park. It contains an 11-mile section of the Cumberland Trail and connects Cove Lake State Park with Tank Springs in LaFollette.
Cove Lake State Park is a popular wedding location because of the beautiful natural scenery. There is an indoor pavilion that can accommodate up to 130 people and is great for receptions and rehearsal dinners along with other gatherings.
The park has 106 campsites equipped with grills and picnic tables. There are also six large picnic pavilions available for rent.

After the success of last month's "What Synth Should I Sample?" poll, I decided to do it again for the 12k milestone on my Facebook page.
This time, you wanted me to sample my beloved vintage Roland SH-101.
The Simpler instruments in the file are as follows:
SH101 Saw - Basic single oscillator SH-101 sawtooth.
SH101 Square - Basic single oscillator SH-101 square wave.
SH101 PWM - One of the truly classic SH-101 sounds lies in the character of its pulse width modulation.
SH101 Saw+Sub - Another signature sound from the 101 comes from its sub-oscillator. Here, I blended it with a sawtooth waveform.
SH101 ResSweep - The SH-101 shipped around the same time as the legendary TB-303 - and many producers have used the 101 in similar ways. The resonance on this synth is exceptional, so here's a taste.
SH101 Resonant - This is another example of the SH-101's resonance, generating a whistling tone over a square/pulse wave.
SH101 Noise - Lots of 80s tracks used the SH101's midrange-heavy noise generator for synth drums, so I included a sample of it here.
SH101 Bass - Gotta have some bass too, right?
As with the all of the other Simpler packages on this blog, I left the devices in their default state, with filtering, LFOs and envelopes off, so you can use them as starting points for your own sounds.
That said, I did some quick-n-dirty looping on these patches, which was tricky due to the nature of Simpler and the slight inconsistencies of analog-derived waves. Fortunately, the samples are long enough that many users will be able to switch it off if they choose.
(For those who create cleaner loops for these presets, please send them my way and I'll update the package accordingly.)
Here's the Ableton Live file containing the presets.
(compatible with Ableton Live 9.7 and higher)
Note 1: If you like any of these sounds and want to keep them for future tracks, just click the little save button in the upper right corner of the Simpler and add it to your library (it will copy the waves too).
Note 2: If you don't use Ableton and just want the C3 samples, you can download the file and fish the waves out of the "Samples" folder, then use them in your DAW or sampler of choice.

The Colorado Rapids buried the visiting Houston Dynamo 3-0 on Saturday night at Dick's Sporting Goods Park, with all three goals coming inside the first 23 minutes of the match.
Jamie Smith's first Rapids goal put Colorado ahead after just two minutes, and then Houston was forced into a deeper hole when midfielder Lovel Palmer was controversially sent off after just 10 minutes for retaliating against Rapids captain Pablo Mastroeni after the two collided in pursuit of a ball and Mastroeni kicked Palmer while on the ground. Rapids forwards Omar Cummings and Conor Casey put away the result with another two goals inside the first 23 minutes.
While the win helps the Rapids hold on to their playoff positioning, the Dynamo fell further behind in the race for the postseason.
Casey was the provider on Colorado's first two tallies, providing a perfect through ball to Smith and serving up Cummings with an appetizing cross in front of goal in the 16th minute. Seven minutes later the big forward notched his team's third with a header into an open net after Pat Onstad saved a shot from Mehdi Ballouchy.
The game was largely over as the teams entered the locker rooms at the halftime break. The second half largely petered out into a predictable affair. Houston, which took off veteran striker Brian Ching after 45 minutes for a reported calf problem, struggled to create chances with its man disadvantage, and the Rapids did not create as many chances as in that opening half.
The Dynamo's best chance was a 56th minute shot by Brian Mullan, who cut inside from the left but saw his low shot saved by the leg of Colorado goalkeeper Ian Joyce, who made his first MLS start after regular starter Matt Pickens pulled out with back spasms. The Rapids' best opportunity came through Casey, who missed the target in the 81st minute.
Casey tied ex-Rapids forward John Spencer for second on the Rapids' all-time goal scoring list. He just needs two more to reach 39 and tie Paul Bravo, the club's current technical director.

CBD Oil Spray in Baltimore
CBD Oil Sprays And Skin Care Products By Hemp genix
With more research underway surrounding the endocannabinoid system and cannabinoids such as CBD and THC, many new methods for infusing products with cannabinoids are being developed. One of the most intriguing is in using them within CBD Oil Spray products.
Cannabis CBD Oil Sprays come in the form of lotion, salves, balms, and oils, all of which have been infused with cannabinoids. They absorb into the skin directly upon application. CBD Oil Sprays have only grown in popularity over the years. In fact, THC and CBD has even been utilized in general cosmetic products and even personal lubricants.
CBD Skin Care by Hempgenix in Baltimore
Applying cannabinoids topically will allow them to absorb into the body quite quickly. The relief is also more focused, generally only affecting the specific area where the product was used. On the other hand, smoking or ingesting marijuana affects the entire body, and it can take up to two hours for any effects to be felt.
CBD Lotion are only mildly invasive, and they make a strong entryway for those that are curious to dip their toes into the world of medical cannabis. The prospect of smoking or ingestion is quite scary to the uninitiated.
It's also worth noting that CBD Oil Skin Care In Baltimore are not psychoactive. The endocannabinoid system is activated, and any mind altering properties are blocked from entering the bloodstream. It's worth noting that topical dosages must be quite large. Since the skin of humans absorbs cannabinoids at a low rate, a liberal application is suggested as a workaround.
That said, CBD Oil Skin Care In Baltimore can work their way into the skin much easier than THC. They're also more likely to engage the receptors of the CB2 cannabinoids. As such, they have become quite popular for cannabis topical manufacturers. CBD Oil Spray contents have much more hemp than your run of the mill variety of marijuana. CBD Oil Skin Care In Baltimore has numerous benefits, included significantly lower toxicity.
CBD oil lotion is also quite popular since there are dual purposes at play. They'll smooth out and even soften the skin of the applied area. It's not uncommon for people to become very adamant that CBD Lotion in Baltimore become a regular part of their lives after trying it for the first time. The FDA isn't keen on any particular health claims being made of course, but it's hard to deny the satisfaction rate of those that have been using CBD Oil Spray thus far.
THC is quite well known, having been included in the conversation about marijuana for quite some time now. CBD Skin Care has become more prominent as of late thanks to plenty of research and trials however. There is still much work to be done towards achieving widespread understanding and use of topical products such as CBD Oil Skin Care in Baltimore , but it's clear that we're many steps closer than ever before.

CBD Oil
Purchasing CBD oil on a wholesale basis is not an easy task. There are many things to consider when doing so. In fact, the cost and quality of the oil would depend on the plant it is extracted. Another factor that has a direct impact on the price of the product is the quantity of CBD oil produced by the plant.
CBD oil is one of the most important oils on earth. In fact, industrial hemp oil is not a drug as most people would think. The THC content in this oil isn't significant enough to produce any psychotropic effect. Our oils are 100% made in the USA and don't contain any THC. Many people might come across industrial hemp oil when searching for cannabidiol (CBD) oil to purchase.
Hence, CBD wholesalers need to do their homework and get to know what exactly are their clients searching for. There are numerous fake CBD oil wholesalers in the United States, Canada, and the UK for that matter. More than 90% of wholesalers offer low-quality oils with a purity level between 17-40%.
Why Do You Need To Buy CBD Wholesale From Hemp Genix?
Our prices are quite economical compared to other so-called CBD wholesalers on the market. In fact, most of these people are middlemen or brokers who drive the prices up. That's why you need to buy from the producer if you want the best oil at an affordable price. A one-stop shop is the best place to purchase your CBD materials, oils, and get them shipped to your doorstep. That way you get a high-quality product at a price you could easily afford. One disadvantage of hemp oil is it hasn't been extensively tested on humans as yet. Although hemp oil is likely to have health advantages to humans, it is not established properly by the medical fraternity.
You don't have to visit our shop in person to buy the product. That will help you save time and money in the process. You should extensively research the drug store before buying your products. Remember, there are many scam traders posing off as legitimate drug sellers online.
Since CBD is a natural oil, it is safe to be taken orally. You can easily find your requirement at Hemp Genix. We offer bulk quantities of CBD hemp oil to all our deserving consumers out there. In fact, we are the leading provider of wholesale CBD oil products on the market.

CBD Topicals From Herb Genix
If you've ever come across the likes of CBD topicals in online shops or even one your local health stores, you're likely left wondering why you should ever put CBD anywhere on the outside of your body in the first place. The general thought surrounding this type of product is that CBD has to be ingested in order for it to provide any usefulness. The truth however is that it works just as well even if it's used externally.
Believe it or not, cannabinoids such as CBD really do work internally and externally alike. In regards to the latter, topicals are among the most rapidly growing means of cannabinoid use. There's actually quite a large variety of cannabinoid rich products currently being sold that are meant only for external usage.
1 - What Is Wholesale Topical CBD Skin Care?
As more research is conducted on THC, the endocannabinoid system, and CBD, many new ways to use products based on cannabinoids are being developed. The advancements over the last few years have honestly been staggering. One of the major breakthroughs was in making them effective when applied to the skin.
Cannabis topicals are often made in the form of lotion, oil, salves, and balms. Any sort of topical cream or oil you can think of has already been given the cannabinoid treatment. Products of this kind are made with active cannabinoids that are absorbed into your system directly through your skin. Topicals can owe their popularity in recent times largely to the wide variety of products available. CBD has even made its way into lip balms, body butters, general cosmetics for the skin, and a number of hair care products.
2 - How Do Wholesale CBD Topicals Like This Work?
Instead of taking CBD hemp oil by mouth, a topical application of cannabinoids means they can absorb into the treated area in a much faster manner. The resulting effects will have a much more focused onset. Orally ingested CBD affects the entire body, and it may take as long as 2 whole hours to work.
Given its nature as such a minimally invasive means of using CBD, the topical cannabinoid method is favored by many consumers that are just barely dipping their toe into the much larger pool of the hemp oil industry at large. Many people are hesitant to take CBD oil orally. An external application feels much safer for a first time experience, especially given the targeted response.
CBD oil topical products are non-psychoactive, much the same as all hemp oil products. Since the cannabinoids are reacting along with CB2 receptors located close to the skin, they never reach the bloodstream at all. The endocannabinoid system is activated immediately upon the oil working its way through the skin.
Since human skin has shown to have such a low rate of absorption for cannabinoids, the application has to be quite heavy. Think of it as a barrier that you're pushing through. As such, CBD topicals generally direct consumers to implement a liberal application to the desired area. CBD is much more prone to penetrating through the skin in comparison to THC however, and it's also a lot more likely to engage the CB2 cannabinoid receptors. This makes CBD a much more popular choice for creating cannabis derived topicals. CBD also has a lot of hemp content, making hemp a great source for CBD topicals.
3 - How Should CBD Oil Topicals Be Used?
Hemp Genix has a wide variety of topical CBD oil products in the online shop. Hemp oil sales made by Dixie Botanicals and RSHO are among the most popular options currently available. Fully infused with CBD, the salves can be worked into the skin, muscles, and joints all throughout the day, as liberally and often as desired.
CBD infused skin products made by Cannabis Beauty Defined are also quite popular. This is a line of skin care products with anti-aging properties. They include moisturizers, toners, exfoliators, and serums along the CBD oil. There are also a mixture of herbal extracts included to make sure the skin is well pampered. The result is a smoother, more youthful appearance to the treated area.
Hemp Genix also sells an assortment of CBD coffees and oil sprays, along with various other products meant for eating and drinking. There's also CBD infused body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and moisturizers. As such, your entire bathing and showering regimen can be bolstered by the benefits of hemp oil.

Back in May, the Justice Department issued some proposed legislation to tighten US intellectual property laws and to criminalize some forms of "attempted infringement." Now, legislation based on the proposals has been introduced in Congress by Rep. Steve Chabot (R-OH), complete with stiffer jail terms for violators and the controversial "attempted infringement" clause.
H.R. 3155, the Intellectual Property Enhanced Criminal Enforcement Act of 2007, aims widely. Everything gets a section: unauthorized recording of films in theaters, circumventing copy protection, trafficking in counterfeit goods. The bill even directs the Attorney General to send federal prosecutors to take up permanent residence in Hong Kong and Budapest and specifies the number and makeup of FBI investigative teams.
In most cases, the bill appears to simply double existing penalties. Section 12 alone, for instance, makes a 10-year prison term into a 20-year term, three years into six, five into 10, and six into 12. Poof! More prison time!
One of the bill's controversial features is the fact that people can be charged with criminal copyright infringement even if such infringement has not actually taken place. "Any person who attempts to commit an offense under paragraph (1) shall be subject to the same penalties as those prescribed for the offense, the commission of which was the object of the attempt," says the bill.
While copyright infringement is sometimes believed to be solely a civil matter, that's not the case. US Code 17, section 506 (a) spells out the conditions for criminal infringement under which the government can actually do the prosecuting, and they are quite modest. The infringement must be willful, and the material in question must have a total retail value of over $1,000. This wouldn't be a difficult threshold for many P2P users to clear, except for the fact that this section also requires that the infringement be done "for purposes of commercial advantage or private financial gain."
The attempted infringement clause actually falls under this criminal infringement statute, meaning that it won't apply to file-sharing unless the courts suddenly take a hugely expansive view of "commercial advantage or private financial gain," and it's unlikely the government has some new interest in such cases.
The bill is full of the sort of things that groups like the EFF aren't going to like, and in fact the EFF has already issued a statement condemning the legislation. One of their concerns is that a small change to the law could have big effects on casual file-sharers for a different reason: P2P users could face greater penalties for infringement after statutory damages are expanded.
The bill allows "a judge to dole out damages for each separate piece of a derivative work or compilation, rather than treating it as one work," wrote Derek Slater, "for example, copying an entire album could translate into damages for each individual track, even if the copyrights in those tracks aren't separately registered."
Update: Readers have pointed out that "criminal infringement" cases can be brought if someone distributes copyrighted work for commerical gain or (not and) if they distribute work valued at more than $1,000 over a 180-day period (thanks to the No Electronic Theft Act). A third category applies to anyone who leaks copyrighted works before they are scheduled to be released. While the feds still remain unlikely to prosecute P2P users, the standard for doing so is lower than originally indicated in the article, and makes the "attempted infringement" section even more disturbing.

CBD Pain Relief Lotion Benefits
Looking at CBD, you will find that a lot of the research is still in the early stages. However, thanks to the changing laws in a number of places, there are more people starting to realize the many medicinal benefits that hemp has. CBD pain relief cream is something that has been able to help a countless number of patients within the United States who live in areas where marijuana has been legalized to get great benefits.
While many people have often immediately gone to the idea that marijuana is mostly known for THC content, researchers have been working hard to identify many of the other components of the plant that can be beneficial to a wide range of patients. It is more important that ever that you get your CBD pain relief cream from an authorized manufacturer and a distributor that you can trust. Every state that has legalized medical marijuana has rules in place regarding the making and distribution of any creams like this. It is best to look into the laws and guidelines where you live to be sure that there are products available that you can buy that adhere to these rules and guidelines.
When it comes to such a cream, you also need to understand how much of the cream you should be using and the best way to apply it. The ingredients get absorbed into the skin, so it may be hard to determine the right dosage in the beginning. Some people will recommend the use of a chart that helps you to track progress with any cream. For example, you can make notations on your pain level with each application.
While you are noting the use of the cream, write down how much you are using and the brand. You can then record how you are feeling after about fifteen minutes and up to an hour later. Keep a log like this and you will find that you have a good bit of quality information that you can refer to on the dosing and how your body may be reacting. Proper monitoring of all application locations will help you to get a better idea.
CBD pain relief cream can be used in a number of states where it is now legal, and it can help to give you a great deal of comfort and freedom from the pain that has been holding you back on a daily basis.

Full-Spectrum CBD Skin Care
As everyone is waking up to the wide world of marijuana and its products, everyone is finding out just how complicated cannabis is. As it turns out, there are at least 80 different types of cannabinoids alone, and 100 in cannabis and CBD hemp put together. CBD to THC ratios is from 20 to 1 up to 30 to 1; meaning the plant can contain CBD 20 percent and 0.6 percent THC.
Now, what the percentages and ratios mean will differ based upon individual states. In Colorado, those types of ratios are what make up industrial hemp, while other states define 1 percent as industrial hemp. Industrial hemp is not to be confused with the plant material that makes up rope and other manufactured products. High-CBD hemp, as it is known, is different than the fiber hemp used in production. Here's where the confusion is set in motion. Fiber hemp has 1 percent to 2 percent CBD.
Full-spectrum CBD is a powerhouse because it contains terpenes and cannabinoids together. CBD itself is only one small part of the cannabinoid family. Each is able to interact well with the endocannabinoid system. As research is performed, it is coming to light that the CBD has this interaction with the body. It's important that the natural structure and power of the cannabinoids are extracted without breaking down their ability to interact in the endocannabinoid system.
Full spectrum CBD is not inexpensive. If you are searching for it, and come across a great deal, its quality is probably not great. It may mean that there is a problem with the methods used to grow it or how the full-spectrum CBD oil was pulled out of the plant.
The full spectrum CBD, which includes terpenes and cannabinoids, is best extracted using organic alcohol, specifically grape solvents because it is oil soluble. It's never good to use chemical-grade solvents, butane, or propane to extract the oil, such as denatured alcohol.
The issue is when molecular extraction is performed as well. This is too far away from the natural process, which can pull out the extremely beneficial synergies of the plant. If you see a pure crystal CBD, avoid it.
It is also possible to extract high-CBD hemp using carbon dioxide. This is part of the plant's oil soluble part that is taken out of the leaves to leave behind terpenes. This is how a pure extract is derived in order to achieve the full synergy the plant can provide.

Ocotillo Bark
Veterinarian Reviewed on June 14, 2012 by Paulina Nelega, RH
Posted in Uncategorized
Ocotillo plant (Fouquieria splendons)
The Ocotillo plant (Fouquieria splendons) is a desert dwelling plant that is typically found in the Southwestern United States and also in Northern Mexico. It is called by many names, such as Desert Coral, Coachwhip and Vine Cactus. The Ocotillo may look like a cactus but it is not a true cactus; it may look like a bunch of tiny dead sticks but if you look closer you can reveal stems that are partly green in color. When the desert rain falls, the Ocotillo becomes a lush plant with beautiful small ovate leaves that may remain for months. It also develops bright red flowers in spring.
The Ocotillo bark is widely used as herbal remedy and is not easily harvested because of the prickly thorns that can easily prick a harvester if they are not wearing special protective clothing. There are many diseases that are treated with the Ocotillo bark which can range from diseases of the pelvic area, PMS symptoms in women and also prostate enlargement in men.
History and Origin
The Ocotillo plant is regarded as a medicinal plant by many Native American tribes. The plant is harvested fresh or after a desert rain when it is plum and lush. Ocotillo bark extracts are used for therapeutic treatment of pelvic diseases and to improve systemic circulation.
Ancient Uses
During ancient times, the Ocotillo bark and, in fact, the entire plant, was regarded as a desert plant or as a cactus with no more than shelter for use. It was later discovered, however, to have healing properties since there is certainly more than meets the eye in this plant. North American tribes used the Ocotillo bark for different medicinal purposes such as pelvic pain, to relieve menstrual symptoms and as an overall body tonic to energize and add vigor.
Modern Uses
In modern times, the Ocotillo bark and the entire plant was further studied and found that it contains medicinal properties that can increase systemic circulation especially in the pelvic area and all the organs in that region. It is used for the treatment of hemorrhoids, enlargement of the prostate in men and also abdominal pain and swelling in women. The use of Ocotillo bark extracts are usually also recommended for women who experience PMS or premenstrual symptoms, such as abdominal pain, mood changes and Headaches. It is also known to effectively remove fats in cells of the digestive tract and to improve portal circulation in organs of the abdominal and pelvic area. Tinctures of the fresh Ocotillo bark are used for medicinal purposes. Your doctor can better advise you how much dosage you can take to reap the full benefits of this wondrous herbal remedy.
Side Effects
Ocotillo bark is contraindicated in people who suffer from thrombosis since it increases blood supply and circulation. It is also not advised for women who are pregnant and breastfeeding. If you want to reap the full benefits of Ocotillo bark and to use it to treat a particular illness, consult your doctor first before using any supplements, capsules or extracts containing Ocotillo bark. It is safe idea to consult your naturopathic doctor about any possible adverse reactions to any medications you that you may be taking at present for any type illness as well.

Newtown privacy debate to resume for lawmakers
HARTFORD -- The emotional debate over victim privacy rights that began after the Newtown school shooting is expected to resume in coming weeks in Connecticut, as state lawmakers consider restrictions on public access to certain crime scene photos, 911 recordings and other information about homicides.
In a state that has historically boasted about its strong open government laws, there's disagreement over how much, if any, of those laws should be rolled back in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre.
"Obviously, it strikes a raw nerve for a lot of folks on both sides of the issues," said House Speaker Brendan Sharkey. "Certainly for victims, as well as members of the public and the media who are looking for more openness and transparency."
After the December 2012 massacre in which 20 first-graders and six educators were gunned down at the school, members of the media, including The Associated Press, asked authorities to turn over 911 recordings and other records from the day of the shooting. The prosecutor in the case balked, citing among other things the flood of attention on the grieving families of victims.
A months-long legal battle ensued, ending when a judge ordered the recordings to be made public. That affirmed a ruling by the state's Freedom of Information Commission that the calls are not exempt from public information laws.
The recordings painted a picture of anguish and tension inside Sandy Hook Elementary School that day, but also showed how Newtown dispatchers mobilized help, reassured callers and urged them to take cover.
Now, lawmakers are expected to soon begin debating proposals offered by a task force created last year by the General Assembly as part of an effort to address concerns voiced by the Newtown families, who feared photos of their dead loved ones would end up posted on the Internet.
The task force, which struggled for months to reach a compromise, ultimately recommended creating a system that would allow the public, including members of the media, to inspect certain materials from homicides, such as video and internal police communications. Those police communications are restricted to the public until May 7 under a law passed in the wake of the shooting that also barred the release of crime scene photos from all homicides. People requesting the information would have to prove there's a strong public interest in its release, and a victim's next of kin or legal representative would be notified of the request and have an opportunity to object to the information's release.
Democratic Senate President Donald E. Williams Jr., a former radio news reporter, has made it clear he doesn't support all the panel's recommendations. He called it ill-advised, for example, to restrict public access to recordings of 911 calls related to homicides if there's "an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy," as the task force suggested. Williams said information on such tapes has led to important reforms.
But Sharkey, a fellow Democrat, hasn't made up his mind yet.
"It's a difficult topic, but we have to get our arms around it so we are striking the right balance," he said.
While sensitive to worries of the media, he said he's also aware of the concerns voiced by some in Newtown who felt their privacy was violated by the release of the 911 calls.
"Most members of the public do assume their calls to 911 will not be broadcast to the world," Sharkey said.
Williams disagreed, saying he believes when someone calls a government agency, "there's almost an expectation that it's part of the public record."
Some advocates for open government and the media have argued the recommendation will weaken Connecticut's Freedom of Information Act because it uses a federal legal precedent as a standard for ultimately releasing the material. It puts the onus on the person requesting the information to prove they should be able to obtain it.
But veteran Republican Rep. Arthur O'Neil said the Sandy Hook massacre has prompted lawmakers to re-examine privacy rights in the Internet age, when it's become so easy to quickly disseminate information to a lot of people.
"That was a very powerful force in this legislature," O'Neill said of the shooting. "And it changed a lot of people's opinions about what they were willing to support and not support legislatively."

October 1, 2003 Neal Stephenson was at Book People in Austin, TX, where he signed copies of his latest book "Quicksilver", the first book in "The Baroque Cycle" trilogy, and answered audience's questions. Below is an approximate transcript of his talk. Due to the poor quality of the tape recording it was hard to pick out the exact words that were said, so I can't guarantee the accuracy of either audience's questions or Neal Stephenson's answers. The places I couldn't hear I paraphrased the best I could.
One of the most remarkable things about this interview is that Neal Stephenson introduced the audience to the word "steampunk" and had to assure them he didn't make it up. Who could have guessed that in a few years steampunk jewelry will be sold at Walmart!
Other curious bits from the interview: the pronunciation of the Qwghlm islands, and Neal Stephenson's reading tastes (actually you may regret finding out about that one). Also, a very interesting observation of what we mean by "technology".
Lifelogging is an emerging trend of recording every, or nearly every moment of your life. A simple example of lifelogging would be wearing a video recorder that would record continuous video and audio of everything you see and do. Ted Chiang used this example to speculate about how lifelogging would change our society. At the end he answered the audience's questions and engaged in a discussion regarding some points, such as: would lifelogging encourage us to craft our lives as stories, and thus become better people? Doesn't forgetting play a big role in getting over a trauma? Doesn't forgetting go a long way towards forgiving? What if your memories are hacked? Who has control over shared memories?
Panelists: Ted Chiang, Louise Marley, Michael A. Stackpole, W. J. Williams, Janine Ellen Young (moderator)
What it was supposed to be about (synopsis from the program book): When do "scientific" worldview elements move a concept out of fantasy? Systematic magic, planetary bodies, rudimentary experimentation, the cusp of alchemy into chemistry...
What it was really about
First, the panelists admitted they didn't really understand the topic of the panel as stated in the program book. They didn't get much mileage out of "scientific worldview elements moving a concept out of fantasy". After addressing the distinction between technology and magic, and Ted Chiang stating why he believes Clarke's famous adage is incorrect, the panelists quickly became mired in the age-old debate of what is science fiction, and what is fantasy. Oh no, not again, you say! Well, this discussion wasn't quite like beating a dead horse. I heard some interesting insights.
A lot of western fantasy writers prefer magic to be systematic, i.e. to have laws, rules, constraints. An arbitrary magic, where everything is possible or impossible, depending on whether it is convenient for the author, they don't find very interesting. But does systematizing magic move it closer to science? Not necessarily.
Traditionally it's thought that it's the presence or absence of scientific / technological elements -- the so-called furniture -- that causes most people to view a certain story as science fiction or fantasy. But actually, the worldview expressed in a story may be more relevant. (Though apparently there are no universal criteria how to determine the genre a particular story belongs to, because some people in the audience disagreed over which genre certain books belonged to.)
Participants: Kage Baker, David Hartwell (Interviewer)
Topic: One of her editors gets our Guest of Honor to talk.
Kage Baker was the oldest girl of seven kids; she started writing at age 9. Some of her earliest memories was changing diapers for smaller kids; when her biological clock started ticking, she decided "been there, done that" and never looked back, never felt like she missed out on anything by not having children.
Participants: Vernor Vinge, John Gibbons (interviewer)
Vernor Vinge talked about how he got started writing science fiction, about numerical parametrization of group minds, about some characters in "Deepness in the Sky", and, of course, his brainchild -- the concept of Singularity, the ways it could happen, and what current research might lead to it.
Slipstream is literature that has fantastic elements that nevertheless can't be characterized as science fiction, fantasy or horror. It is the literature of the fantastic that's left after you remove the defining characteristics of those three genres. The negative space.
Synopsis from ArmadilloCon program book. A plethora of new markets for what we used to call slipstream has blossomed over the past two years, with all sorts of new monikers like "The New Fabulists," "Interstitial Arts," and "Ambient Fiction" -- Conjunctions 39, Sweeney's Mammoth Treasury of Thrilling Tales (with a new volume appearing in the fall), Polyphony, Album Zutique, Lady Churchill's Rosebud Wristlet, and so on. What distinguishes the work appearing in these journals from more conventional SF, fantasy, and mainstream fiction? Has slipstream finally arrived as a genre in its own right?
Panelists: Chris Nakashima-Brown (moderator), Lawrence Person, Mikal Trimm, Rick Klaw
Two of Sharon's closest friends, authors Kay Kenyon and Louise Marley, ask her about her life and her work. How does she manage to find time for writing while having a full time job? How many "trunk books" she wrote until she got published? Why are mothers so terrible in her books? And many other questions.
Following the ArmadilloCon tradition, toastmaster K. D. Wentworth gave a humorous speech. She addressed the audience as a fourth grade schoolteacher, which she actually was for the most of her working life. She chastised SF fandom for forgetting their geeky, eccentric roots and becoming too mainstream. Then she and several other guests performed "The Fan Eye for a Mundane Guy" makeover (modeled after a then-popular television show "Queer Eye for a Straight Guy" on a guy they picked from the audience.
Note: My transcription of this speech is not completely accurate since I had to work off of a poor quality tape recording.
Pictures from ArmadilloCon 2004 can be found in my photo gallery.

Des Moines (December 6, 2012) Two eastern black rhinoceros have arrived at Blank Park Zoo in preparation for the new $4 million Africa exhibit opening next spring.
"Rhinoceros are the perfect addition to the Blank Park Zoo. They are a very large animal that will be popular with our guests. They are also an animal in great danger in the wild as poachers are killing them at devastating rates because of the value of their horns," said Mark Vukovich, CEO of Blank Park Zoo. "We want to raise awareness about this because it's possible that within our lifetime these animals will be extinct in the wild."
According to the International Rhino Foundation, there are less than 5,000 black rhinos left in the wild and less than 30,000 of all species of rhinos.
Blank Park Zoo acquired two black rhinoceros, a male named Kiano and a female named Ayana. The rhinos are part of a breeding program called a species survival plan (SSP), and zoo officials hope they will breed when they become mature. This program's goal is to maintain a sustainable population of black rhinos in zoos. The male came from the Great Plains Zoo in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and the female came from Zoo Miami in Florida. Ayana was born in August 2010 and weighs 1,900 pounds and Kiano was born in October 2010 and weighs just over 1,000 pounds.
Ayana and Kiano are now going through a required thirty day 'quarantine' process which helps the animals become accustomed to their new home and keepers monitor their health and stress. Once this process is completed, keepers will begin to introduce the animals to each other.
About Black Rhinoceros (source: International Rhino Foundation, www.rhinos.org)
The black rhinoceros has two horns, with the front one being the larger of the two. They can weigh up to 3,000 pounds and be 5.5 feet tall at shoulder height and up to 12.5 feet long if you include the head and body. The black rhino has a prehensile lip that is well-suited for grasping branches, leaves and shrubs. This is the species' most distinguishing characteristic. The black rhino lives in Africa, primarily in grasslands, savannahs and tropical bush lands. Female rhinos reach maturity at four to seven years of age while males reach maturity at seven to ten years. Between 1970 and 1992, the wild population of this species has decreased by 96 percent. The term 'black rhino' is believed to come about because of the color of the soil the rhino covers itself with while wallowing in the mud. Unlike the white rhino, black rhinos are only semi-social and do not live in herds.

(BNSF). Plans call for a new rail yard facility on a 153-acre site in Wilmington, bordering West Long Beach, to increase capacity and efficiency by hauling cargo closer to port docks.
Although not directly opposed to the project, Long Beach city officials sent a scathing comment letter to L.A. port officials on January 18, calling the project's draft environmental impact report (EIR) "flawed," and concluding that the port fails to provide adequate mitigations to air quality, noise and business impacts.
Long Beach City Councilmembers James Johnson and Rae Gabelich had originally called for the city council to oppose the so-called Southern California International Gateway (SCIG) project all together. But the council instead voted to ask for more information on various concerns with the EIR, including inaccuracies, the lack of plans for zero-emissions technologies and disregarding the potential job loss from relocating businesses. City Manager Pat West was expected to provide a final comment letter before the public comment period for the EIR ends tomorrow, February 1.
At the same time, the Long Beach Unified School District Board of Education took a similar stance at its January 17 meeting, unanimously approving a resolution in opposition to the project EIR. Boardmembers indicated that the port has failed to analyze the potential impacts of the proposed rail yard that would be built a few hundred yards from public schools.
Despite the controversy, port officials have indicated that they won't respond to any comments until the port releases a final EIR on the project, likely several months from now. Phillip Sanfield, spokesperson for the Port of Los Angeles, told the Business Journal that the procedure is standard in keeping with the EIR process. "We don't have any plans to comment until the next phase of the EIR, when we respond to all the comments at the same time," he said.
According to John Cross, vice president of the West Long Beach Neighborhood Association, port officials recently told community leaders in a meeting that the Los Angeles Harbor Department has received thousands of pages worth of comments on the project and may not be able to release a final EIR until July or August.
After petitioning local government officials and residents to oppose the project for years, he said opposition has now shifted toward the port's EIR, partly because of the project's controversial nature.
"We wish [the city council] would have come out in total opposition of [the project]. But we don't think we'll get any group with total opposition . . . It's just too controversial," Cross told the Business Journal. "[Port officials] said this is the most controversial EIR they've ever had come through the port." Additionally, if the port has to re-do the draft EIR, he said the project might be pushed back another year.
As more time elapses, however, Cross said the harder it may be to justify the expanded capacity, especially with cargo traffic slowing in recent months. He said the project has already been postponed a few years due to environmental issues and other concerns.
Meanwhile, advocates of the project say the new intermodal transfer facility is a way to spur the port's competitiveness in anticipation of the expansion of the Panama Canal, which threatens to take cargo away from West Coast ports once completed in 2014.
Campaigns, such as "Beat the Canal," supported by a coalition of union members, port advocates and others, say that such projects are imperative to sending a positive message to shippers and customers to keep port-related jobs and businesses in the West Coast.
Over the long term, BNSF officials have indicated a strong commitment to investing in the Los Angeles and Long Beach ports. In a recent interview with the Business Journal, John Lanigan, executive vice president and chief marketing officer for BNSF, said the company foresees trade continuing to increase at the local ports, because of population growth, capabilities of the West Coast ports and proximity to Asia. "We will continue to invest in equipment, track and facilities over a long period of time, dependent on the continued growth in the economy," he said.
BNSF is expected to pour more than $500 million into the SCIG project, with about $100 million going to install environmental initiatives, including all-electric wide span gantry cranes and low-emission locomotives and equipment. Although the Port of Los Angeles is conducting the EIR, the project is being solely funded by BNSF.
After being in the works for more than six years, current plans call for building the rail yard facility on a site currently owned by the Port of Los Angeles and Southern California Edison, bounded by Sepulveda Boulevard, Pacific Coast Highway, Dominguez Channel and Terminal Island Freeway.
Just four miles outside of the port complex, the facility would be built to accommodate about a dozen new railroad tracks utilizing the Alameda Corridor cargo expressway and 1.5 million annual truck trips, diverting cargo from BNSF's current Hobart Yard in the City of Commerce.
However, a major concern brought by the city council is the required displacement of several long-time port related businesses, including California Cartage Company, Los Angeles Harbor Grain Terminal, Fast-Lane Transportation and Three Rivers Trucking that currently lease space at the large industrial site.
Port officials say the new SCIG would generate about 450 direct permanent jobs at the proposed facility. But, if the port isn't able to provide adequate "relocation sites" for impacted businesses, business representatives estimate a loss of about 1,200 existing jobs, many of which are filled by local residents. Long Beach city staff says the result would be a "net loss" of jobs.
"The City of Long Beach is very displeased with the irresponsible and cavalier approach being promulgated by this project and the City of Los Angeles," said the city's comment letter to the port. " Losing jobs in these difficult economic times can force families out of their homes and cause a great deal of distress to neighborhoods."
In the meantime, port officials are expected to spend the next several months addressing a myriad of concerns brought forward by several individuals and agencies. In addition to Long Beach city officials and school district boardmembers, other opponents to the project EIR include: University of Southern California (USC) and University of California, Los Angeles health and environmental experts, the South Coast Air Quality Management District, and various groups throughout the region. All are sending letters outlining concerns with the project.
During the Long Beach school district meeting, Andrea Hricko, associate professor at the Keck School of Medicine at USC, said the port's EIR is "full of significant flaws," and the port should "go back to the drawing board." Speaking for herself and not the university, she said particular matter, elemental carbon and diesel emissions are already a concern for children who grow up and go to schools near heavily congested freeways and port facilities. Adding a new rail yard facility would only compound the problem.
Additionally, Long Beach city officials said the port's document "falls short" of meeting California Environmental Quality Act, or CEQA, requirements for revealing and evaluating the probable environmental impacts of "this new, extremely large, intermodal rail facility, which would be sited adjacent to many sensitive receptors and thousands of residents living nearby."

REVISION HISTORY: Scanned, OCRed, corrected and edited by John van Wyhe 9.2006, textual corrections by Sue Asscher 12.2006. RN4
* As regards the flesh of the larger of the two wild species, I have it in my power to offer the following testimony from Mr Darwin, the talented naturalist who accompanied the late surveying expedition in the Beagle, round Cape Horn:—"I have much pleasure in answering, as far as lies in my power, your enquiries regarding the guanaco. The first I killed was at Port Desire, on the coast of Patagonia; it weighed, without blood, entrails, or lungs, 170 lbs. Another, shot a few days afterwards, was estimated at a greater weight. These, and during
the succeeding year many others, were served out on board H. M. ship Beagle as fresh meat, and were generally liked. The meat, as far as I can remember, was fine-grained, not very dark, (perhaps of about the same colour as mutton,) rather dry, but not with the least bad taste or smell. I do not, however, think it would be considered of a very fine flavour; but, on the other hand, it must be remembered that the meat was tried in no other way (as I believe) except being baked in a ten gun brig's stove, and that it was eaten very fresh. Moreover, these animals, shot in this wild state on the desert plains, were not fat. I cannot doubt that the guanaco, if domesticated and fattened, would yield a meat which, when well cooked, would be decidedly good, although possibly not equal to beef and mutton."1
This peculiar facility of accommodating themselves to different climates and situations, so remarkable in the tame varieties, we also know distinguishes the guanaco, which, as I have already had occasion to observe, has in the course of time spread to the southern limits. In a communication addressed to me by Mr Darwin, whose authority has previously been quoted, are the following remarks upon this subject:—
"Perhaps there is no animal in the world which, in its wild state, flourishes under stations of such different, and indeed directly opposite characters, as the guanaco. I saw them on the hot deserts near Northern Chile, where the climate is excessively dry; on the borders of perpetual snow, at the height of 12,000 feet; and on the rocky and bare mountains of the
same country. They swarm in great herds on the most sterile plains of gravel, composing Patagonia. Formerly they were numerous on the grassy savannahs stretching on the banks of La Plata, where during half the year the summer is hot, and in the winter abundant rain falls; and lastly, the guanaco lives on the peat-covered mountains, and in the thick entangled forests of Tierra del Fuego, of which country the climate is far more humid and boisterous, and the summer less warm, than in any part of Great Britain. I could perceive no difference in the guanacos of these several regions. If the alpaca be the same species, or has the same constitution, as the guanaco, these facts regarding the range of the latter are interesting, as they show under what various conditions we might expect the alpaca to thrive. I will only add, that the guanaco so easily becomes tame, that young ones, caught and brought up at farm-houses, seldom leave them, although ranging at full liberty near their native plains."

– U.S. Deputy Secretary of State William Burns on Thursday promised Libya more U.S. help against extremist violence, saying the country could not achieve political or economic stability without tackling its security challenges.
Libya's weak central government is struggling to assert its authority against militias and armed tribesmen who helped oust Muammar Gaddafi in a 2011 NATO-backed uprising.
"Rising violent extremism is an enormous challenge first for Libya but also for Libya's international partners," Burns told a news conference after talks in the capital Tripoli.
"That's why we have a such sense of urgency and such a sense of determination to help Libyans build their own security capacity, to deepen counter terrorism cooperation and also to promote the kind of healthy political process … that increases the chances of greater security over the long-term," he said.
Burns is the most senior United States official to visit the oil-producing nation since an Islamist militant attack on Washington's consulate in the eastern Libyan city of Benghazi in September 2012 in which the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans were killed.
Burns said rebuilding security was key to Libyan success.
"It is impossible to foresee the successful political transition and successful economic revival without a greater sense of security," Burns said.
He did not elaborate on how Washington would deepen its security cooperation with Tripoli, repeating only that the United States and other partners would continue to train Libya's nascent army and security forces.

Blu Dot Sale! Save 20% Through November 9th

It's that time of year — Blu Dot is 20% off now through November 9, 2014! If you're not familiar with Blu Dot, chances are you've seen their work around and just didn't know it. Two best friends, John Christakos and Maurice Blanks founded the Minnesota company in 1997 and it has taken the design world by storm ever since. Founded on the simple concept that Good Design Is Good, creating pieces that are practical and just plain cool.
If you haven't checked them out, Blu Dot is one of the best companies to follow on Pinterest, as they apply their discerning eyes to all good design and share their creative collaborations. They also ran a two-week swap meet, where folks could propose trades for their products. Successful fans proposed trading Blu Dot products rendered in cross-stitch, carrying a Rook Table Lamp around Boston for a week and even learning a ukelele song to in turn, dedicate to them.
Plus, their product shots always inspire and awe. This one for their Nook Bed is one of our all-time faves:
Their Strut Tables remain one of the most popular items, whether in coffee table form as seen here, dining room table size or console table:
Here is the Rook Lamp one fan was willing to take everywhere with her for a week. Sounds worth it, but personally, I'd rather just save 20%:
No deer were harmed while photographing this shot, which includes a Strut Dining Table, a 4-Drawer Shale Credenza, a Delta Rug and a couple of Real Good Chairs in Copper:
The best thing about the philosophy that Good Design Is Good is that these pieces are timeless. They aren't something yo'll chuck during a move, but rather, something you'll hang on to and treasure for decades. Blu Dots pieces slip into not only contemporary and modern rooms; they work with traditional, transitional, collected and rustic rooms too.
You have a few weeks to ponder which pieces you'd like to invest in, but do it while you have a chance to save big.

Teachers, workers at child care centers and school bus drivers are among those who will soon be required to submit fingerprints for criminal background checks under a new Massachusetts law.
Gov. Deval Patrick signed the bill saying that it closes a loophole in existing state law and will help protect children.
Under the new law, the fingerprints will be submitted to the state police for a state criminal history check and forwarded to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for a national background check.
All newly hired teachers, bus drivers and others working at schools will be required to undergo the background checks before the start of the next school year.
Current employees must undergo the checks before the 2016-2017 school year.
Previously schools were only allowed to conduct background checks for crimes committed inside Massachusetts.

Bienvenido, Entrar
No batteries required: The output level of this passive Pickup is enough to be processed directly from the mixer or amplifier.
The FanTaStick Classic is an undersaddle transducer that was developed to transmit the real guitar sound with all its natural frequencies, directly from the source of the sound. For the FanTaStick Classic, we select piezo-crystals that specifically agree with the mellow sound of the nylon strings.
The FanTaStick includes a metal stereo endpin jack and a detailed instruction manual.
How does the FanTaStick differ from other undersaddle Pickups?
K&K engineers created the "super-light" construction principle. Only ultra-thin material surrounds the piezo-crystals and ensures that the corpus wood vibrations reach the crystals with virtually no interference. This means that electronic post-processing to improve the sound is not required anymore. At the same time, this construction method results in another positive effect: The FanTaStick is extremely flexible and adjusts easily to any arched base. To balance the volumes of each string, we measure each crystal separately within a nano-inch range. Only six crystals of exactly the same height are combined to one FanTaStick. Each crystal is fit in according to a defined direction of polarization. Even playing in "open tunings" is possible, because the FanTaStick already functions with low string pressure.
The FanTaStick can be directly connected to an amplifier or mixer. However, for optimum adaptation of impedance of this extremely high-ohmic Pickup to standard line or amplifier inputs, we recommend the use of the K&K preamps.
Possible E-e string distance: 56mm - 60mm
Height:1.6mm Width: 2.3mm
Cable length: 1 ft.
Option: Gold-plated strap nut
If it should look something noble, the cartridge can also be supplied with a gold-plated strap button. Simply put the option to the shopping bag.
Option: Vintage Jack
The vintage version, with its massive brass bush even more precious and you need not have an extension of your strap button hole mostly because it is so small that it can simply be replaced by the existing strap button. Simply add this option to your basket.
Extensions of the System
... are usually very easy because we offer special expansion kits that are customized to your installation.If you don't want to afford the Tristar, Trinity, Meridian or PowerMix System yet, you can upgrade at any time, without giving away money. The following extensions can also be found under the "Accessories" tab. With existing Systems, the Pure can be combined to provide even more sound variancy.

K & K Pickups are RoHS compliant. Piezoceramic is officially excluded.In the manufacture of ceramics, lead is used as it unfortunately currently there is no functional substitute. The lead is incorporated in the ceramic, and is sealed on both sides by a silver electrode. The ceramics is mounted on a solid brass plate. From above it is provided with a plastic seal, so that the lead is so hermetically sealed completely and makes contact with the skin makes it impossible.
