Fatherhood will change Simon, feels Alesha Dixon
London, Jan 10 (IANS) Singer Alesha Dixon thinks fatherhood will transform music mogul Simon Cowell and that he will make a great dad.
The 35-year-old star is confident that Cowell will become a kinder and more considerate man when he welcomes his first child with his girlfriend Lauren Silverman later this year, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
"I think it will change him. Simon's a great guy, I think this will make him an even nicer person. Having children does change you, it makes you become a better person because you want to set an example. I think he'll be a great dad," Dixon told Bang Showbiz at the launch of her perfume Rose Quartz at St. Martin's Lane Hotel here Wednesday.
Dixon herself welcomed her first child, a daughter – Azura Sienna, with her partner Azuka Ononye October 2013.

Today's Meditation
Read Genesis 1:28-31
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
-Lamentations 3:2223 (NRSV)
I opened Grandma's blinds to get more light into the room. She never remembered to open them. Since moving into the dementiacare unit, she had become more and more forgetful. I was sad to see her slipping away.
One day we sat at her table, putting together a child's jigsaw puzzle. I had brought her flowers, and each time she looked up, she saw the flowers as if for the first time and asked me who brought them. When I saw her look up from the puzzle yet again, I got ready to quash my annoyance at the question I knew was coming. "Well, look what someone brought!" Grandma said with pleased surprise. Then she added, "What a beautiful day this is!"
I felt my breath catch in my throat. Grandma was remembering something I had forgotten: the beauty of what God has made. What I saw earlier as sad I now saw as amazing: a woman seeing things with fresh eyes, eyes that did not take for granted "the ordinary." It was as if I suddenly sensed God's abundance where I had expected only loss. Grandma gave me a glimpse of the God who dwells in those corners of life that we might call "empty," the God who moves in darkness as well as in the light, blessing us all.
Callie J. Smith
(Indiana, USA)
Prayer:Show us, O God, how to live in your light, even in the dark places. Amen.
Thought for the Day: God's Spirit carries blessing into every corner of life.

BEIJING (AP) — Zhuang Zedong, a key figure in 1971's groundbreaking "pingpong diplomacy" between China and the U.S., died Sunday, China's official Xinhua News Agency reported. He was 72 and had struggled with cancer since 2008.
A three-time world champion in table tennis, Zhuang won new fame by presenting a gift to American player Glenn Cowan, who had inadvertently boarded a bus carrying the Chinese team at the World Championships in Nagoya, Japan, in 1971.
Zhuang and Cowan were photographed together, creating an international sensation at a time when China and the U.S. were bitter Cold War rivals.
Under orders from Chinese leader Mao Zedong, the 15-member American team was then invited to China at the end of the Nagoya championships for an ice-breaking visit. Ten months later, President Richard Nixon made a surprise visit to China, leading to the establishment of diplomatic ties in 1979.
Zhuang became a favorite of Mao's wife, Jiang Qing, a member of the notorious Gang of Four, which held sway over China's cultural scene during the radical 1966-76 Cultural Revolution. Jiang appointed Zhuang to a number of political posts in the sports ministry.
Zhuang came under investigation after the Gang was deposed and Jiang imprisoned following Mao's death in 1976, and subsequently spent years coaching the provincial team in the northern province of Shanxi. He returned to Beijing in 1985 and coached young players for several years.
Zhuang was married twice and had one daughter.

Conn. police: Cable outage not 911-worthy
August 19, 2013
FAIRFIELD, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut police department wants people to know that missing your favorite show isn't an emergency.
Fairfield police say they received numerous 911 calls about a cable outage that hit parts of southwestern Connecticut on Sunday night.
The message on the department's Facebook page says the outage is "neither an emergency or a police related concern."
The post warns that 911 should be used for life-threatening emergencies only and misuse of the 911 system may result in an arrest.
Cablevision said in a statement shortly after 11 p.m. that there was a commercial power outage in its Norwalk facility. It says "the power matter has been resolved and service has been restored to our customers."

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon estimated that 26,000 members of the military were sexually assaulted in unreported incidents last year — 35% more than in 2010 — a severe trend that senior officials warned could threaten recruiting and retention of women in uniform.
President Obama, reacting to the startling figures Tuesday, said he had "no tolerance" for sexual crimes in the ranks and pledged to crack down on commanders who ignored the problem. Obama said he had spoken to Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and ordered that officers "up and down the food chain" get the message.
"I expect consequences," Obama told reporters at the White House. "If we find out that somebody's engaging in this stuff, they've got to be held accountable — prosecuted, stripped of their positions, court-martialed, fired, dishonorably discharged, period. It's not acceptable."
The worsening statistics are a blow to the Pentagon's military and civilian leadership, who have announced repeated initiatives to combat rape and sexual assaults, only to see the problem grow.

The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments Tuesday and Wednesday in two cases expected to spur landmark decisions in the divisive issue of same-sex marriage.
DAYTONA BEACH — The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments Tuesday and Wednesday in two cases expected to spur landmark decisions in the divisive issue of same-sex marriage.
On Tuesday, the nation's top justices will take up the voter-approved same-sex marriage ban in California, and on Wednesday they're slated to focus on a federal law that defines marriage as only between a man and a woman.
The historic rulings, expected by June, will determine whether two men or two women are entitled to the same kind of legal marriage that heterosexual couples can enter into, complete with dozens of legal and financial benefits.
"Love all of God's children equally. End of story," said Joanna McKenney, an Ormond Beach resident and Volusia County teacher who is heterosexual and has two gay relatives.
For the Rev. Mark Howell, senior pastor of the First Baptist Church of Daytona Beach, it comes down to what he reads in the Bible.
"God has defined marriage for us. It's between a man and a woman," Howell said. "His word is clear."
Jim Camp, who was with his partner for about three decades before he died, says the issue is legal, not spiritual.
"I can't see in this country and in this age we should ever be discriminating against people," said Camp, owner of The Villa Bed and Breakfast on Peninsula Drive in Daytona Beach. "I think the Supreme Court will recognize everyone has equal rights under the law. I'm hoping the Supreme Court makes a decision and doesn't pass it on to every state."
The Rev. Chris Hoffmann, pastor of Our Lady of Hope Catholic Church in Port Orange, hopes individual states can make decisions on same-sex marriage.
"I think it'll just divide our country if they say it's the law of the land," Hoffmann said. "It'll harden hearts."
While the debate has waged on, people such as Bob Baxter and his partner of 35 years have watched the calendar turn on one year after another that they can't get married. At 68, the retired Edgewater man said at this point he's mainly interested in he and his partner being able to tap into the same legal and financial benefits as heterosexual couples.
Not being married is "just something you live with," Baxter said.
While Baxter is part of a generation of homosexuals that didn't have its hopes up for same-sex marriage, gay men and women a few decades younger see a tide turning in their favor.
A recent Washington Post/ABC news poll found 58 percent of Americans believe gay and lesbian couples should be allowed to marry. Nine years ago, support for gay marriage was just 32 percent, and three years ago it had risen to 47 percent, polls have reported.
Gay marriage has been approved in nine states — Connecticut, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Vermont and Washington — and the District of Columbia. But same-sex couples in those states aren't entitled to any federal benefits.
A tug of war continues, though, with 31 states — including Florida — amending their constitutions to prohibit same-sex marriage.
Now the nation is watching to see if the Supreme Court judges will settle the matter. Some observers expect the 17-year-old federal Defense of Marriage Act that defines marriage only between men and women to be abolished since four federal district courts and two appeals courts have struck down the provision.
If the same-sex marriage ban in California decided in 2008 by Proposition 8 is struck down, it could open the floodgates to other states legalizing marriage between homosexuals. Some worry upholding it could shut the door on gay marriage rights for years, leaving the matter up to individual states. A third possibility is a ruling that mainly impacts California.
Some have questioned whether judges should be arguing California's Proposition 8 that barred same-sex marriages in that state by voter rule.
"Why don't you accept the will of the people (in California) versus the nine justices who will decide it?" asked Ormond Beach Mayor Ed Kelley. "That to me says it all."
Kelley said he sees marriage as something between men and women who can have children together. But he adds that he doesn't want to impose his views on anyone else, and he doesn't want anyone to impose their views on him.

Thanks for the Memories, Greensboro
Lila Adair, AAPT President-Elect and Program Chair
August 21, 2007
The spectacular summer meeting of AAPT has come to an end. The booths are dismantled, boxes of supplies are packed and shipped, the exhibit hall is quiet and the 1,285 participants have left for the airport. Standing here in the lobby, I finally have a moment to relax and look over the past few days and to remember AAPT at its best, providing a national meeting for those who love physics and physics education. From July 21 to August 1, 2007, Greensboro was the center of the "Accelerating Universe of Physics Education." The Koury Center, the University of North Carolina Greensboro, and Davidson College were alive with physicists and educators enjoying 52 workshops, 560 papers and posters, 18 crackerbarrels, committee meetings, apparatus and photo competitions, plenaries and award sessions, breakfasts, luncheons, a picnic and demonstration show, the Computational Physics topical conference, PTRA, the PER Conference, and countless other private meetings and late night sessions. Attendance was at an all-time high including 192 first timers, 168 local teachers, 53 graduate students, 50 international participants and even one high school student. The news media covered all aspects of the meeting: an article in the Greensboro News and Record, an interview with Janet Guthrie on NPR, special features on local TV channels 2 and 8 with several live remote broadcasts featuring Sam Sampere, David Maiullo, and Dale Stille, assisted by AAPT Executive Officer Toufic Hakim participating in demonstrations from the awesome AAPT demo show, featuring our exciting and enthusiastic PIRA members.
As has been the custom for several years, this meeting was packed with outstanding presentations on a variety of topics ranging from methods of teaching physics to the public and to students in K-12 schools; from colleges and universities to advanced methods in cutting edge physics research. Our plenary and award lectures had standing room only crowds. I won't ever forget the charismatic Klopsteg lecture by Neil deGrasse Tyson, Astrophysicists and Director of the Hayden Planetarium, and the thought-provoking Millikan lecture by David Sokoloff of the University of Oregon. It was wonderful to see NSTA Executive Officer Gerry Wheeler "back home" as a former AAPT president giving the 2nd Max Dresden Memorial Lecture. In her Excellence in Pre-College Physics Teaching Award lecture, Jan Mader gave a heart-warming presentation on what being a physics teacher meant to her. And Steve Manley gave his Excellence in Undergraduate Physics Teaching Award lecture on his work at the University of Rochester. Janet Guthrie, physics major, pilot, engineer and the first female Indy driver, gave an inspiring lecture on the difficulties and successes of her career in a male dominated sport and how to apply racing in the physics classroom. George Coyne, Emeritus Director of the Vatican Observatory, fascinated us with his lecture on astronomy and the current arguments between the Big Bang, evolution, and intelligent design.
The meeting provided many special features. For the second consecutive meeting we provided a speaker-ready room, where speakers would drop off their presentation and then have it delivered to the session on one main computer, saving time and reducing the risk of equipment problems. We also provided our ever popular cyber café, available during all meeting hours to check those important e-mails from back home. Monday featured a full day of special sessions and receptions for the local high school teachers and staff and students of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) from North Carolina. Local astronomy clubs, under the leadership of Joe Heafner, provided solar viewing and exciting details on their astronomy adventures. Of course no meeting would be complete without the famous Southern hospitality picnic, complete with string band and the thrilling demonstration show by our friends in the Apparatus and Labs Committees and PIRA. The smiling faces of local student guides and volunteers were everywhere in their white t-shirts to get us where we needed to be on time, so we did not miss a moment of the meeting.
The Greensboro meeting also provided many firsts, which we plan to incorporate in future meetings. The AAPT membership staff set up a member services desk for answering questions, filling out a new personal profile, recruiting new members, and displaying the program updates on a plasma screen in the registration area. The publications staff provided printed programs for each plenary and award speaker and videotaped each presentation. Some CDs were available at the new expanded AAPT booth in the exhibits. Check www.aapt.org for information on these soon. We held the first reception for our international participants. The Graduate Education Committee invited local graduate students to present their own research for review by a panel of professors in the "Cutting Edge Physics Research in Simple English" session.
Just as this was a new beginning for many of our members, it was an ending of a long relationship for three of our special friends. Bernie Khoury, Executive Officer, Emeritus, who served as Executive Officer from 1990-2006 and will retire in December, was honored with a stellar welcome reception in his honor, where the Executive Board presented him with a cake, an engraved AAPT rocking chair, and a rousing rendition of Thanks for the Memories, adapted by John Roeder. Maria Elena Khoury, Director of Programs and Conferences has been with AAPT for 22 years and will be retiring in September. Warren Hein, Chief Academic Officer and former Associate Executive Officer, has been with AAPT for 10 years and will be taking a two-year leave to work for NSF. Maria Elena and Warren were surprised with a cake and giant card of congratulations in the exhibits area. All of our lives have been enriched by our relationships with these three special people, and they will be greatly missed at AAPT. Hopefully, they will return to future meetings as regular members.
The overwhelming success of this meeting was due to the work of many individuals. Special thanks go to Steve Danford, Ed Hellen, and the physics department of UNCG for serving as our local host and to all of the officers and members of the North Carolina section of AAPT for their long hours of planning, recruiting of workers, and selling yellow t-shirts that we all wanted as a memento. Extra special thanks to John Hubisz and Bill McNairy for all of their personal work in taking over for Mary Creason, the inspiration for this meeting, and bringing her plans to fruition; and for Bill's special tribute to Mary at the demonstration show on Tuesday. Thanks to the Shodor Education Foundation and UNCG Reynolds for their generous gift that provided registration fees and expenses for local teachers. And a great big hug goes to Maria Elena Khoury and Tiffany Hayes, all of the AAPT directors and staff, the Executive Board, President Harvey Leff, and all the volunteers who worked behind the scenes to make this meeting look so easy. I am proud of all of you and all the others whose names could not appear here. It has been my pleasure to serve as your program chair for Seattle and Greensboro. I now turn it all over to Alex Dickson to plan Baltimore and Edmonton.
A fitting closure to this meeting might be to quote Jan Mader in her award lecture, who said "Those Who Can….Teach". Whether you are reading this as a K-12 classroom teacher, a college professor, a PhD advisor, a director of a national lab, or a cutting-edge physics researcher, every day of your life you do a little sharing and teaching of physics. You are what make AAPT great and give us the inspiration to be the leading voice in physics education. AAPT is truly the Accelerating Universe of Physics Education. Find your place in our universe. Members accelerate your involvement. Non-members join AAPT today and let your star shine brightly. I hope to see you January 19-23, 2008, in Baltimore for another great meeting.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Nasty weather that includes a chance of strong tornadoes and howling thunderstorms is forecast on Christmas Day along the Gulf Coast from east Texas to north Florida.
The National Weather Service says people should prepare their yards for high winds Monday, securing lawn furniture or anything that might be blown into a home or car.
Weather service meteorologist Bob Wagner says the weather is coming from a storm front moving from the West Coast hitting a cold front.
The weather service in Jackson, Miss., says it is unclear how far north and west the threat will spread.
A squall line is expected to cross Alabama, Georgia, and the Florida Panhandle during the night with high winds and at least a few tornadoes possible into Christmas Day. The Carolinas also may be hit.

It appears that the Homeric board has been a tad quiet of late. Time to rouse it up!
In Lesson 15, trans. (G-E), #3, we have the following clause:
[face=SPIonic]to\n ga\r basileu\j )Atrei/dhj e)xo/lwsen[/face] (for the king, son of Atreus, enraged him)
Does not the verb in the clause take a dative object? If so, should it not be [face=SPIonic]tw|=[/face] instead of [face=SPIonic]to/n[/face]?
Thank you,
P.S. How is the diaeresis represented in SPIonic?

A configure script is an executable script designed to aid in developing a program to be run on a wide number of different computers. It matches the libraries on the user's computer, with those required by the program before compiling it from its source code .
As a common practice, all configure scripts are named "configure". Usually, configure scripts are written for the Bourne shell , but they may be written for execution in any desired shell.
Obtaining software directly from the source code is a common procedure on computers, and generally involves the following three steps: configuring the makefile , compiling the code, and finally installing the executable to standard locations. A configure script accomplishes the first of these steps. Using configure scripts is an automated method of generating makefiles before compilation to tailor the software to the system on which the executable is to be compiled and run. The final executable software is most commonly obtained by executing the following commands in a shell that is currently pointing to the directory containing the source code:
One must type
rather than simply
to indicate to the shell that the script is in the current directory. By default, for security reasons, operating systems do not search the current directory for executables so one must give the full path explicitly to avoid an error.

In the experiments with natural selection, the number of individuals per species was much higher than in the experiments without natural selection from time step 10,000 (one-way ANOVA for all considered time steps, P = 0.0001; Tukey post hoc test, P < 0.05; Fig 5 ). Moreover, the results for the Selection and High Dispersal and the Selection and Low Dispersal experiments eventually (from time step 14000) converged toward those obtained for the Selection, Enforced Reproductive Isolation and Low Dispersal experiment (around 55 species with several thousand individuals per species, see Table 3 ). This convergence indicates that the three experiments involving natural selection exhibit the same long-term patterns.Selection, Enforced Reproductive Isolation and Low Dispersal
The higher stability of Selection in Enforced Reproductive Isolation and Low Dispersal compared to the four other experiments is due to the enforced reproductive isolation.Selection in Enforced Reproductive Isolation and Low Dispersal
Moreover, the species abundance distribution patterns observed in the three runs with natural selection follow a Fisher's logseries (
Statement Bag tatanka by VIDA VIDA baIk6P
). This pattern was also shown in [ 40 ]. Many large species (of more than 10,000 individuals) tend to persist for several thousand time steps showing the stability of these genomic clusters. By contrast, the two experiments without natural selection generate a large number of clusters (around 65,000; Table 3 ) that contain only two or three individuals each. These small clusters tend to persist for only few time steps and have species abundance distribution concentrated in the two first bins (see Fig 6 ), showing that no organization of genotype groups emerged.

On Wednesday, you and your team created a storyboard. On Thursday, you'll adopt a "fake it" philosophy to turn that storyboard into a prototype. A realistic façade is all you need to test with customers, and here's the best part: by focusing on the customer-facing surface of your product or service, you can finish your prototype in just one day. Sound crazy? It's not, and here's why:
On Thursday, you'll also make sure everything is ready for Friday's test by confirming the schedule, reviewing the prototype, and writing an interview script.
The book explains the mindset, strategy, and tools that make it possible to build a realistic façade in seven hours. We even provide a "cheat sheet" for selecting the right prototyping tools and formats. In this post, we're excited to share the checklist for Thursday and a video where Jake and I talk about the prototype mindset, picking the right tools, and prototyping as a team.

In Memory of Grant Turner - #17
Grant, the son of Nancy and Phil Turner, Sr., was born on March 15, 1981 in Annapolis, Maryland. Grant spent his childhood growing up with his parents, his sister, Melissa Kahl, and brother Philip, Jr. in Riva, Maryland. He graduated from South River High School in 1999. Grant was a member of The Boy Scouts of America, Troop #454, in Davidsonville, Maryland, for 13 years. He was also a member of the Maryland Mud Bugs Four Wheelers Club. Grant was exuberant about life and enjoyed hunting, sports, camping, and the outdoors.
As a young boy, Grant participated in many sports: soccer, football, lacrosse, basketball, and baseball. Baseball soon became a passion for him, which is why, while still in high school, he became an umpire with the Maryland Diamond Umpire Association. In 2001, Grant was invited to umpire for a week at the Little League Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York.
Grant became engaged in September 2004 to Jennifer Carr. Grant and Jen, who knew each other since they were teenagers, resided in Crofton, Maryland, and were looking forward to their wedding in September 2005.
Like so many family members before him, Grant entered the field of law enforcement in January 2005 by joining the Maryland Transportation Authority Police. Among those family members who walked the beat before him were: Elon Turner, the first sheriff of Prince George's County; William Hadel Muhl, the one-armed Constable of Baltimore City; Agent Paul Turner, FBI; Timothy Broderick, Baltimore City Police; Sergeant Frank Muhl, Tuscon, Arizona; Officer Mike Fahey, Farmington, New Mexico; best friend Trooper 1st Class Jason Lambert, Maryland State Police; and his loving father, Philip L. Turner, retired Sergeant of the Annapolis City Police and retired Anne Arundel County Sheriff's Deputy.
Grant was adept at blending what he learned from one challenge and making it work for another. When he joined the Maryland Transportation Authority Police, he realized that many of the skills that he used on the ballfield also applied to the rules of law and order that he was learning in the Police Academy. Grant was able to see connections in life that other people may never have noticed, which was another one of the amazing things about him.
Grant was a proud member of Class #37 of the MDTA Police Department. His death occurred a mere 5 weeks before graduation after he had already fulfilled all of the qualifications of the Maryland Police Training Commission. He was ranked as #3 in the class and was on the Deans Honor List at the Baltimore County Community College.
It is fitting that Grant's final sacrifice was actually a part of his academy training. Class #37 was participating in the Duke Aaron 5K Memorial Run to honor a fallen hero and raise funds for the MDTA Widows and Orphans Fund. Grant ran the 5K, ranking 64th of a field of 99 runners, he turned in his scorecard, dropped to the ground, and despite valiant efforts on the part of the medical personnel he passed away.
Grant's life was short, but filled with joy, love, passion, energy, and a commitment to those who shared his life. Grant exuded warmth and wit, humor and happiness, and an enduring spirit. He left behind many loved ones who cherish their memories of life with Grant: his loving fiancée Jennifer; his parents Phil and Nancy; sister and brother Melissa and Philip; his brother-in-law Steve Kahl, and nieces and nephews Kayleigh, Justine, Brandon, and Ryan; and his grandmothers Agnes Turner Gimbel and Ilean Brinkmeyer. Grant was welcomed into glory by his grandfathers, John Turner, Kenneth Brinkmeyer, and John Gimbel.
The Annapolis Open is dedicated to the memory of Grant for his passion for life and his love of this tremendous game.
