The gameday experience at Duke is the most unique of any in the country. Fueled by the famous Cameron Crazies, the atmosphere in and around Cameron Indoor Stadium is filled with excitement and unmatched spirit.
The Crazies are among the most innovative, passionate and sometimes intimidating fans in all of sports. They are copied, but never matched. The Duke student section – both graduate and undergraduate – that surrounds the lower bowl of the arena is a spectacle in itself.
Lines form early for entrance into a game, which is one of the toughest tickets in college athletics. For many years, the Crazies have taken it to another extreme. Nowhere else in college basketball will more than 1,200 brave the elements throughout the season in a tent city erected outside of Cameron Indoor Stadium – known as Krzyzewskiville – just to get a seat at a Blue Devil game.
The name "Cameron Crazies" is believed to come into widespread use about 1986 but it is not clear exactly when and where it originated. Local and long-time Duke beat writer Al Featherston explains well why Duke's student section is the gold standard in the game today.
"When some new group of fans achieves notoriety, they don't run around comparing themselves to the Oakland Zoo or Pitt or the Grateful Red at Wisconsin, their target is the Cameron Crazies," Featherston stated in an article on the Crazies, published on Duke Basketball Report in January 2007. "Duke's crowd may or may not be the best student section ... but it is the standard by which all others are measured."
Featherston explains that the crowd at Cameron was very good in the 1960s and in the late '70s, but it was not widely considered the best in college basketball. "Duke emerged as the standard for college crowds simply by not changing Cameron Indoor Stadium. The arena emerged in the 1990s as a last relic of a by-gone age when the student was at center-stage and the boosters watched from above," Featherston explained. "True, there are other historic facilities left, but they weren't on ESPN every other night. Al McGuire and Dick Vitale defined the Cameron Crazies because they were in the right place (Cameron Indoor Stadium) at the right time (as coach Mike Krzyzewski's program took off).
Long before the now widely accepted notion of being among the most creative fans in sports, the Duke students made headlines. Kentucky coach Adolph Rupp criticized the students for rushing the court after a one-point Blue Devil victory over the No. 7 Wildcats in the 1950s. Most people know Duke's fans invented the "Air Ball," and that was before they were branded as the Crazies, but as the student section began to build momentum into what it is today, they weren't always accepted as model fans. NBC came to Cameron to do the first national telecast from the arena on Jan. 28, 1979, and insisted on a time-delay so the crowd could be censored if necessary.
The height of negativity came early in the Coach K-era, when Maryland standout Herman Veal came to Cameron. While one or two cheers, chants and signs could be considered clever, nearly all were over the top. That incident led then Duke president Terry Sanford to write a letter to the students, stating: "Resorting to the use of obscenities in cheers and chants at ball games indicates a lack of vocabulary, a lack of cleverness, a lack of ideas, a lack of class and a lack of respect for other people." Sanford suggested change, urging students to "think of something clever but clean, devastating but decent, mean but wholesome, witty and forceful but G-rated for television, and fix it for the next game."
The Washington Post was especially critical of the Crazies that night, and rightfully so, but the next game when N.C. State came to Cameron, the normal placard declaring, "If you can't go to college, go to State," had an addendum: "If you can't go to State, write for the Washington Post." It wasn't long after that the students started gaining notoriety for the uniqueness and cleverness of their behavior.
"It's always tough to play there," former North Carolina center Sean May said. "One, it's hot, and two, because of the fans. They aren't the most brutal; they're just the most clever."
Former Georgia Tech coach Bobby Cremins once told the Atlanta Journal Constitution, "They're my favorite fans in the league. They do things so creative. I had a jacket with patches on the sleeves that I got from a tournament. They destroyed me."
Along with inventing the "Air Ball" chant, there have been countless memorable moments from the Crazies. UNC guard Jeff Hale, who had suffered from a collapsed lung, heard "In-Hale, Ex-Hale" all game and when Roy Williams made his debut as UNC's coach at Cameron in 2004, many students dressed as characters from The Wizard of Oz and set up a makeshift yellow brick road outside the opponent locker room to let Williams know he wasn't in Kansas anymore.
ESPN.com's Page 2 staff compiled a top 10 list of Crazies' exploits in 2002 that include the Hale chants among others including yelling "Urkel, Urkel," as a skinny Lehigh player with knee-high socks and goggles went to the free throw line. Shaquille O'Neal was a target of several chants on his visit to Cameron even Grant Hill's parents weren't above the cheers when the Crazies begged them to have "One more kid."
Other than those in trouble with the law, another favorite target of the Crazies are the shorter players on other teams. The "Webster" chants have been yelled at several players and likely started with 5-3 Muggsy Bouges from Wake Forest. A 5-7 player from the Australian National Team during an exhibition contest heard "Shrimp on the Barbee" chants.
Cremins' was far from the only opponent coach to be the focus of the Crazies and they often times take the brunt of the attack. Some coaches throughout the years have figured out ways to get in good with the crowd. When Jim Valvano's N.C. State team was being investigated by the NCAA, the early-arriving Crazies chanted "Down with Valvano," but the charismatic coach won over the students by squeezing between the crowd and yelling "Down with Packer" when TV analyst Billy Packer took the floor. Duke alumnus and long time Maryland coach Lefty Driesell would work the crowd, too, one time leading the Crazies in a round of Simon Says and another time taking out a comb and running it over his bald head, mocking the students who routinely wore skin caps to games when he coached the Terrapins.

Admiral Tony Dalton became head of Helicopter Systems for the ADF in September 2012. He joined the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) in 1980, graduating as a pilot in 1981 and going on to fly helicopters with four RAN helicopter squadrons, an exchange posting with the UK's Royal Navy and a tour flying peacekeepers in the Sinai.
Counting time on the Iroquois, Sea King, Gazelle and Seahawk, he has logged a total of more than 5,500 helicopter flying hours. He completed Command and staff training at the U.S. Naval War College in Newport, R.I. Back in Australia he served in the Navy Aviation Project Office within the Defence Materiel Organization. Further ahead he became Commander Fleet Air Arm in 2008. In 2010, he was promoted to Director General Navy Aviation Systems before moving to head the Helicopter Systems division.
Rotor & Wing: Please provide an outline of the current types and size of the Australian Defence Force rotary fleet.
Tony Dalton: The Army currently has 34 S-70A-9 Black Hawks, 22 Tiger (EC665) Armed Reconnaissance Helicopters (ARH), six CH-47D Chinooks, 40 Bell OH-58 Kiowas, and 10 (of the 19 to date) MRH-90s (multi-role helicopters). The Royal Australian Navy (RAN) has 16 S-70B-2 Seahawk "classics," 13 AS350BA Squirrels and 5 MRH-90s (with six Sea Kings just having been retired). There are also three Bell 429s used for training aircrew and two Bell 412s used for loadmaster training. That's nine types with a total of around 150 helicopters.
Rotor & Wing: What are you currently looking to modernize?
Dalton: The current focus right now is Black Hawks and Sea Kings being replaced by MRH-90. The Sea Kings are being disposed of; we are selling five to a UK-based logistics company that will use them for spares and are in the process of jumping through the hoops with U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) – even though our Sea Kings were a Westland product, they were built under license to a U.S. design and ITAR still applies. We are retaining one Sea King for the Fleet Air Arm museum at HMAS Albatross.
The Air 9000 concept is the strategic program of ADF rotorcraft capability. Including Tiger, which is being procured through Air 87 that predated Air 9000, if you look at this decade, we will change every helicopter the ADF owns. Phase 2, 4 and 6 of Air 9000 is the MRH 90 program – troop lift, then Black Hawk replacement, then Sea King replacement. Phase 5C is the Chinook replacement program and we already have a foreign military sales (FMS) agreement with the U.S. government for seven Boeing CH-47Fs. Phase 7 is the helicopter training system that is currently in the tender evaluation phase and will ultimately replace the Squirrel, Kiowa and the two leased types. And Phase 8 is the acquisition of 24 MH-60R Seahawk Romeos, also through FMS, that will replace the Seahawk "classics" and the [Kaman] Seasprites that we didn't quite get into service. The introduction of the two Canberra Class Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) ships is a game changer for the ADF. The MRH-90 fits into the amphibious mindset by providing a more robust aircraft for the maritime environment. We will operate the Army and Navy MRH-90s as one fleet. The Navy will continually use six aircraft operationally but they will all be taken from a central pool – so their next aircraft may have previously come from the Army. There will be one paint scheme for all of the aircraft.
We will also have the Tiger operating from the LHD when we achieve its Final Operational Capability, but this won't be until 2015-16. We watched closely what the French did in operating from FS Tonnerre, one of their Mistral Class amphibious ships, in Libya so we have confidence that Tiger can work in that type of environment. Although the decision to build the LHDs was made after the Tiger decision we now need to demonstrate that we can take it to sea.
The new Chinook Foxtrots will come with a rotor-brake to enable them to also operate from the LHD. So troop carrying and helicopter insertion will be possible from the LHDs – they can house up to a reinforced regiment of soldiers – whether for power projection, operational reasons or disaster relief.
Rotor & Wing: How about the new Air 9000 Phase 7 Helicopter Aircrew Training System (HATS)? I understand this is one that industry is waiting on?
Dalton: Yes, HATS will not only replace the Squirrel and the Kiowa helicopters, but we have asked industry to focus primarily on the system and not the platform. We will have a joint helicopter school at Nowra for both Army and Navy helicopter personnel. That is in tender now and industry is awaiting our down-select decision. We are looking for at least two, possibly three options (from the five received), although we can also go directly to one and then develop whatever is selected to the Final Committed Proposal. The final selection decision will be in the first half of next calendar year (2014) with money available from July 2014. The initial downselect will occur within the next few weeks. We didn't put a lot of boundaries down – just two engines on a flying platform and we didn't specify the ratio of live verses synthetic.
Rotor & Wing: Do you see synthetic playing an increasing role in training?
Dalton: We will move towards synthetic. Those solutions are becoming more realistic all the time and there is also the cost saving factor, but there is a balance between that and real exposure, which always has some benefit. What we ask aircrew to do is challenging: operating at low level and during the night on NVGs (night vision goggles), often in poor weather, or returning to a ship at night in poor conditions. You need some experiences in the real world to understand the consequences and perspective that such conditions bring – that edge is hard to replicate in a simulator. Competences are interchangeable between Army and Navy, although the Navy has its aviation warfare officers and the Army its loadmasters – but HATS will deliver an all-encompassing system. What is good is that each of the proposals has approached this challenge slightly differently.
The next evaluation phase with the final contenders will be workshop based. We need to be really comfortable that industry has set up a process to deliver what we expect. We don't want to find we haven't evaluated closely enough and it falls over.
Rotor & Wing: And the RAN now has a solution it likes with the selection of the MH-60R?
Dalton: Air 9000 Phase 8 means 24 Sikorsky MH-60Rs replacing 16 Sikorsky S-70-B Seahawk classics and the 11 Kaman SH-2G Super Seasprites that we didn't manage to get into service. We will accept our first two aircraft from the Lockheed Martin production line in Owego, New York later this year in December. We have learned from the Air Force Super Hornet purchase by staying in America for 12 months to operate alongside a U.S. Navy squadron. We will ultimately have seven helicopters in Jacksonville, Florida, and will build up our knowledge base and tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) in a training program that is already under contract. We have already got aircrew undergoing conversions and they were joined by the maintainers in April. This will build to 112 ADF personnel by the time we bring everything home at the end of 2014.
We want to mitigate the risk and limit the potential for surprises. We can use their [U.S. Navy] simulators and at the end of 2014 bring all 112 people and seven aircraft back to Australia so that we can generate the first ship's flight in 2015. The final Romeo aircraft will be delivered to us in 2016 as the program has been accelerated, but the limiting factor is training the people, not the aircraft delivery. While doing this, however, it is important to maintain our capability at sea so we have military response options to any challenge.
We have established that each Romeo flight will go to sea with two aircrews, noting that we will retain the current Seahawk classic crew model of a single pilot in the right hand seat, a non-pilot aviation warfare officer in the front left seat and a non-commissioned sensor operator in the back. Working on the Seahawk classic we usually have 11 maintainers, while on the Romeo we expect this to increase to between 11 and 13, although we won't make a final decision until we get more knowledge about the aircraft. But it will certainly have more systems, weapons, the Mark 54 torpedo and also we will be introducing Hellfire – rail-launched missiles, which hasn't been done before in our Navy! That the Romeo was in-service with the U.S. Navy was a decisive factor for us. It has flown more than 100,000 hours and they have over 120 machines in service. We are the first export customer, it is considered a low-risk program and there is a spiral upgrade that we will tap into and – where it makes sense – will stay with the U.S. Navy baseline configuration. We need to focus on ensuring that the sustainment package is right and the Australian modifications are completed quickly and correctly.
Rotor & Wing: There have been delays in bringing both the Tiger and the MRH-90 into service. Why, for example, was the Tiger program located in Darwin, which seems not to have the ideal conditions for introducing such a sophisticated helicopter?
Dalton: Australia is a big country and there are few places that do not have harsh environments. The Tiger is a key part of the 1st Aviation Regiment and the capability is co-located at Robertson Barracks in Darwin alongside Army's 1st Brigade. At Robertson Barracks, they have access to huge training area. We do have issues with corrosion and the tropical conditions in Darwin with 100 percent humidity. But Darwin is an important place for us to operate. There was a delay to our initial operating capability (IOC). Testing the Hellfire went reasonably well. We had other issues and perhaps the biggest concerned the Thales TopOwl helmet. The Army transferred from ITT's ANVIS 9 night vision goggles to the TopOwl and while it had advantages, the fidelity of the images wasn't as good as we needed so that slowed us down – and we didn't deploy at night. Those issues are now resolved and we are now flying with TopOwl 3, which has same acuity of ANVIS 9s. I flew with both during a single night and found the comparison quite useful. We now have a very powerful system and extremely accurate gun slaved to the pilot's head movement. Combine that with Hellfire and we have a sophisticated and lethal weapons system. Having achieved IOC last December, Tiger deployed to South Australia with 7 Royal Australian Regiment for an exercise during which it demonstrated the capability to operate day and night into a high threat environment.
Rotor & Wing: What have been some of the lessons learned in bringing new platforms into service, particularly when you look back at the original timeline?
Dalton: One of the things that has slowed the Tiger program is an immature support network where not all the elements were in place. The subcontractors were not on contract; it's really been a matter of having to get the supply pipeline in place and working. We would order a part and it would take a year to turn around. Even now we still aren't able to generate the rate of effort that we would really like. Eurocopter was told that we are unhappy and we have seen them put a lot more effort into correcting this, particularly over the last 12 months. There was a contractual dispute over spares during which time we had to buy more out-of-contract. We have seen an impressive increase in the amount of spares we are now carrying.
Rotor & Wing: Are you involved in any Tiger user group?
Dalton: We have observer status on the European Defence Agency's (EDA) Organization for Joint Armament Cooperation (OCCAR) for the Tiger helicopter program, and we are looking to formally join. That will be interesting as we will be the first user outside Europe and we hope that will give us a little bit more influence.
Rotor & Wing: And the same for the MRH-90?
Dalton: There are different groups within NAHEMA (the NATO Helicopter Management Agency) and we participate in the NH-90 user community. As I said, we are seeing the benefit of a sustainable supply chain for Tiger now it is out of production but the focus in Europe is still on the production line for the NH-90 and not so much supporting the aircraft in service.
Rotor & Wing: How have you got the MRH-90 back on course of the grounding incidents and it being listed as a Project of Concern?
Dalton: In April 2010 we had an engine failure with an aircraft climbing out of Adelaide. We were very surprised as the engine is the Rolls Royce-Turbomeca RTM322 [now fully owned and supported by Turbomeca]. The problem revolved around an issue called thermal bowing and engine cooling. Different shafts cool at different rates. We are managing it now through cooling runs and blow-throughs on engine start-up, these will be automated on the introduction of the next FADEC [full authority digital engine control] update and will become transparent to the pilot.
Rotor & Wing: What are the upcoming milestones for the full delivery of the MRH-90?
Dalton: Getting the military type certificate and the service release certificate allows us to move on to the next operational milestones [this was achieved on April 17, 2013]. After that will be obtaining the IOC for the Navy, because we have a capability gap now due to the retirement of the Sea King. By the middle of this year we want to achieve a flight embarked on a naval vessel for day operations. Next, by mid-2014, we want the first IOC for Army, which is more complex as we need to conduct air-mobile operations with more aircraft, more tactics and so on. We have been seeing the problems that the Italians have seen. The Germans have benefited from the work we have done in Australia – the windscreens were prone to cracking. We have new sand filters. We still have got issues with the door mounting of the machine guns, the robustness of the aircraft's floor, with the cargo hook, the width of the seats – and we are working our way through those. These are the things that you find when you take a new capability into service, and you do it ahead of everyone else."

Finally got around to updating this blog to 2014. Now, if only I could find some time to do some actual blogging. Who knows, this new design might just inspire me.
I recently had to write a webservice in PHP that were to be used by iPhone/Android apps to post data and images to. With standard HTTP POSTS I've usually just created a quick dummy html to post data to the server to test, but this time I had to do some research on how to quickly test the services while developing… Just writing it down here so I don't forget :-)
So, let's say I have a service that requires a session_id, title and comment_text. This can be called from the command line with cURL like this:
curl -X POST -d '{"session_id":"2399024390","title":"This is my title","comment_text":"Some text"}' http://example.com/api/method
You'll get the response on the command line right there so it makes it quick to debug stuff while developing.
I had a challenge where one of the services were to accept a base64_encoded image in the JSON post, so the simple curl example above wouldn't suffice. My friend Frode had the idea of using PHP on the command line to save the JSON request array to a file and then posting that request using cURL afterwards. That did the trick!
So, to create the JSON array to POST to the server I ran this PHP code:
php -r 'file_put_contents("json.txt", json_encode(array("session_id" => "3d6e4871170d4c1c2d91a18264904587b2c8ee0d","image_caption" => "This is an image","sender_email" => "[email protected]","sender" => "My nick", "image_base64" => base64_encode(file_get_contents("gmail.png")))));'
Notice the "image_base64" key in the JSON array there. The server expects to receive a base64 encoded binary image (this is how I got it from the apps that were interacting with the webservice). So that code would read gmail.png which was located in the same folder, base64 encode it and add it to the JSON array.
With a complete JSON array all that remained was the actual POST:
curl -X POST -d @json.txt http://example.com/gallery/api/image/post
And the server returned {"status":"ok"} and all was well!
There are probably better ways and some awesome tools for doing this out there so please hit me with those in the comments ;-)
I just pushed a HTML5 template called "Minimal HTML5 iPad Offline Cache Test" to github:
Basically it's a demo of a simple webpage that can be cached offline on an iPad. It also contains the meta tags required to make it work as a so-called "webclip", that is you can add it to the homescreen on an iPad and it will open in fullscreen without the URL bar at top and without any other safari elements.
You can try out a demo here: http://dev.bybjorn.com/ipadoffline/
To test it on your iPad navigate to the demo and click the icon with the arrow to the left of the URL bar and then click "Add to Home Screen" in the menu:
After that you should see the icon on your homescreen:
Sweet. No trace of Safari – it looks like a native app (or it could if we just styled it).
Now, let's test it offline. Set your iPad in "Airplane mode" and click the icon again to test. You should see this:
Don't worry, that popup means that everything works. You're in offline mode, so Safari is not able to cache anything. You'll find the code for listening to these window.applicationCache errors in offlinetest.js .. you do not have to load that file if you do not want to.
If you're not able to use the page linked above offline on your iPad the problem is most likely with your iPad.
The template above should work, if it doesn't work something is most likely wrong with either your iPad or your webserver (or your files..)
Here's some quick troubleshooting pointers:
Also, note this (from "Dive Into HTML5"):
The first is something you just read, but I bet it didn't really sink in, so here it is again: if even a single resource listed in your cache manifest file fails to download properly, the entire process of caching your offline web application will fail. Your browser will fire the error event, but there is no indication of what the actual problem was.
Download the files from github: https://github.com/bjornbjorn/minimal_html5_offline_test
Good luck! :-)

AL DIVISION SERIES: TIGERS v YANKEES
October 3, 2006
Justin Verlander
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Game One
Q. Growing up, sort of in Orioles country, did you ever watch Mussina pitch on TV and if so what did you gather from watching him?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: Absolutely. I used to watch him all the time. Without a doubt, a great pitcher. Really knows how to set up hitters and use his stuff. You know, it's kind of an honor to throw against him.
Q. Is this an intimidating setting at all, Yankee Stadium, the lineup that you're facing?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: I think it could be, if I let it, but I can't really think about that too much. I've just got to go out and try to do what I've done all year and not let the situation get the best of me.
Q. You've pretty much passed every test that you've had, got to the Major Leagues so quickly, managed to pitch the entire season, do you look at this as maybe another test that's coming to you maybe a little faster than what people thought?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: It's definitely a new test. You know, post-season is just another thing that I haven't experienced yet, just like everything else was this year.
But like I said, if I treat it different, then you know, something might change, but I'm just going to treat it the same way as the regular season and try not to get too excited or let my emotions get carried away.
Q. Do you have to pitch any differently against the lineup, that's as strong top-to-bottom as they have, versus how you do it against other teams?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: I think that's where you might be able to get in trouble is if you pitch differently or change your approach to these guys. I'm going to continue to do what I've done all year, be aggressive and just go after them.
Q. Speaking of great pitching, did you get a chance to watch Zito and Johan Santana today and what do you think of their artistry?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: I didn't have a chance to watch him. I was out doing a little shopping in New York. (Laughter.)
Q. Overall, how are you feeling, how have you kept in shape and do you expect to be pretty sharp tomorrow night?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: I feel good. Obviously I missed my last start against Kansas City. Arm feels great right now. I feel like it's coming back strong, and the two previous times I did this, I came back and felt good, so there's no reason to think it wouldn't be the same way now.
Q. Would you talk about the level of respect that exists for Mike Mussina around the league and what he's accomplished?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: Well, there's obviously a great respect for him. You know, obviously a great pitcher, one of the best in the League, not only this year but for a long time now.
So not only do I have respect for him, but I think the baseball community generally does. It's going to be fun to pitch against him.
Q. Can you talk about the ferocity of this Yankees lineup and how there's no let-up from top to bottom?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: There is no let-up, 1 through 9, they're good hitters all the way through. You can't tip-toe around one guy to get to the next guy. Every guy in that lineup is able to hurt you.
It's tough and I think that's why you've got to be aggressive.
Q. There was a lot made this year about the innings piling up for you. What kind of effect do you think that had during the second half, and how much did you need this little extra rest before the start?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: Well, there's definite fatigue going on. I was a little bit tired. But I don't think I needed it 100%, I could have pitched. I think we were all under -- we had a meeting, myself, Skip, the trainers and we were all under the assumption I could have gone. But it was best that I miss one and get ready for post-season.
Once we came to that decision, we're sticking with it and we're good.
Q. Where did you go shopping today and what did you think of New York prices?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: It was all right. A little Saks, a little Fifth Avenue, whatever, just walking around.
Q. Saks Fifth Avenue?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: Yeah. I didn't buy anything there, I was just looking. (Laughter.)
Q. Just wondering if any level, from little league on, have you ever seen anything like this Yankee lineup?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: They are pretty tough to get out when the ball is sitting up on a tee. That was probably the only better lineup I faced than these guys. I had the opportunity to face them before, but they had some guys out with the same lineup, but this is going to be tough. This is a challenge, no doubt about it, and I'm excited.

Synopsis: In his first starring role, Steve McQueen plays a typical oversexed, car-lovin' highschooler who can't get anyone to believe his story about a huge meteor, which crashes to earth and begins exuding a pink, gooey substance. Affixing itself to the body of an old man, the "blob" begins parasitically sucking the life out of several unfortunate humans, growing to an enormous size. Problem is, the disappearances of the victims can all be explained (one is supposed to be out of town, another is attending a convention), so the cops still won't believe McQueen or his girlfriend Aneta Corsaut (the future Helen Crump of The Andy Griffith Show). Rallying his teen pals, McQueen finally manages to get the adults' attention-but by now, the Blob is consuming entire city blocks.

Post Punk
Post-punk (originally "new musick") is a broad type of rock music that emerged from the punk movement of the 1970s, in which artists departed from the traditional garage rock template of punk to pursue a variety of radical sensibilities. Attempting to break from rock cliché and subvert conventions, post-punk artists experimented with sources such as electronic music, black dance styles, and the avant-garde, as well as novel recording technology and production techniques.
Artists also crossed their work with with art and politics, drawing widely on ideas from critical theory, modernist art, and literature. Communities that produced independent record labels, visual art, multimedia performances and fanzines developed in conjunction with these musical developments.
The early post-punk vanguard was represented by groups such as Siouxsie and the Banshees, Wire, Magazine, Gang of Four, Public Image Ltd, the Pop Group, Joy Division, Throbbing Gristle, the Slits, Cabaret Voltaire, the Cure, the Fall, Au Pairs, Talking Heads and Pere Ubu.

Extreme Shunning The Gilmer Mirror It's Time to Outlaw Extreme Shunning in Modern Society
By: Richard E. Kelly
The January 15th issue of The Watchtower magazine leaves no doubt about how Jehovah's Witnesses should treat family members who have been "disfellowshipped," or ex-communicated, from the religion.
"Really, what your beloved family member needs to see is your resolute stance to put Jehovah above everything else – including the family bond," warns the magazine on page 16, before asserting, "Do not look for excuses to associate with a disfellowshipped family member, for example, through e-mail."
Jehovah's Witness is not the only religion that calls upon its followers to ostracize anyone who leaves the faith. Described as psychological torture by University of California-Davis Professor Almerindo E. Ojeda, such social rejection is used in the United States by Anabaptists (the Amish, Mennonites, Hutterites), Scientology, and the Baha'i Faith, among others. Some contemporary evangelical Protestant churches have renewed the practice of shunning, as in the case of a 71-year-old former Sunday school teacher who was arrested on trespassing charges after questioning her pastor's authority.
The practice can have devastating consequences.
In 2011, Eric Reeder was disfellowshipped from the Jehovah's Witnesses after sustaining injuries in a motorcycle accident that led to a blood transfusion – a medical treatment prohibited by the religion. His family subsequently shunned him in accordance with the faith's rules.
Eric posted about his predicament in an online forum for ex-Witnesses in August of that year, admitting, "The only thing I am really going to miss is my folks ... my dad is a hardcore elder and has told me he will no longer be able to speak to me 100% of the time."
In April 2012 he wrote that he was "still not used to my parents totally shunning me …" before adding, "It's so hard ... nobody should have to lose their parents twice."
By the end of September, Eric was found dead at age 51. He had killed himself.
Nobody can be certain what dark thoughts were swirling through Eric's mind when he took his own life, or what finally drove him to such a desperate act. But we do know that in the preceding months, Eric was deeply tormented by the ostracism inflicted on him by members of his family.
While The Watchtower Society, the name of the legal entity used by Jehovah's Witnesses, proudly publishes annual statistics related to its worldwide evangelism work, there are no official figures for those who are shunned, and no way to confirm how many of these former members, like Eric, feel desperate enough to take their own lives. However, one can find a great deal of anecdotal evidence on Internet forums frequented by Ex-Witnesses. One well-known researcher, Terri O'Sullivan, reported that being shunned worsens one's mood within 60 seconds.
In the absence of any popular or political impetus to address the issue of religion-incited shunning, I am proud to be part of an organization that dares to face it head on. Advocates for Awareness of Watchtower Abuses (AAWA) has been established to educate the world via its website ( www.aawa.co ) about some of Watchtower's most shocking practices.
While these are often pardoned in the name of religious freedom, there are instances where governments have successfully sanctioned extreme shunning:
"The Jewish tradition frequently confronted this issue in the many Eastern European communities where the government outlawed the use of excommunication and shunning. Not surprisingly, when confronted with significant governmentally imposed sanctions against this practice, the Jewish authorities ceased using exclusion as a method of community formation or maintenance," states an article by Michael J. Broyde, academic director of Emory University's Law and Religion Program.
My colleagues and I believe that the shunning of relatives and friends represents mental and emotional abuse. Modern society must no longer allow Watchtower to promote this barbarous practice through printed word or otherwise.
About Richard E. Kelly: Richard E. Kelly is the Managing Director of AAWA and the author of Growing Up in Mama's Club: A Childhood Perspective of Jehovah's Witnesses and The Ghosts from Mama's Club. The retired former president of a Michigan manufacturing company, Kelly was raised as a member of Jehovah's Witnesses, and left the faith at age 20.

There is a dearth of tech products that can also double as accessories for fictional serial killers. If Hannibal Lecter was as into jogging as he was into human consumption, he would have definitely been sporting the Aire mask to power his iPod.
The idea behind the mask it that your breath charges your small electronics. The mask contains small wind turbines that convert your huffing and puffing into renewable power.
The Aire is just a concept at this point, and it's not very likely to see the light of a local Best Buy shelf anytime soon.
The mask is intriguing enough to have earned a Red Dot design award in the energy category for its creator, Joao Paulo Lammoglia, though it has some aesthetic issues that walk the line between creepy and cool.
Maybe it would look less threatening, if it came in colors like hot pink and lime green.
In the search for renewable-energy sources, it makes sense to go all out and try some new ideas--like strapping wind turbines to your mouth.
I would definitely add an Aire mask to my post-apocalyptic survival kit, along with my Ralph Lauren solar backpack and 1TB Swiss Army Knife for fighting off zombies.
Should the Aire ever make it into production, be sure to grab one for your Mortal Kombat costume.
The Lion King remake brings renewed life to a Disney classic: Jon Favreau's version offers incredibly lifelike characters, but at what cost?
SDCC, the biggest convention ever, had a very small start: What started as a gathering in a basement has exploded into one of the world's biggest cultural blowouts.

Welcome to the Merrimack College Procurement Department
Below, you will find information that will hopefully make your purchasing experience at Merrimack College as user friendly as possible. Please explore the resources available to you and contact us if you have any questions.
Employees of Merrimack College can go to mymack to access important forms, policies, and information on purchasing at Merrimack College.
Procurement Department Mission Statement
The Procurement Department at Merrimack College is responsible for the purchasing of all goods and services required by all departments of the College. The Procurement Department provides prompt and professional attention to all departmental needs.
Our mission is to provide advisory and consultative services in the areas of product studies, product evaluations, and negotiations of procurement contracts, bulk purchases, user/vendor mediation and training. We remain cognizant of the benefits to be gained by providing a procurement system that is dynamic, responsive and efficient.
Adequate safeguards are provided to insure that the best interest of Merrimack College will be served by timely purchases of goods and services of high quality at least costs. There are formal bidding procedures in place, mandated by the college's board of trustees, and supported by our outside auditing firm. The formal bidding procedures are closely adhered to on all purchases.
The Director of Procurement has final authority on the commitment of any of the College's funds, regardless of source. Any unauthorized individual committing College funds does so at his or her own financial risk. The Director has the ultimate decision to waive any of the formalities in the bidding process; grant exceptions based on appropriate back-up supplied, or approve sole source purchases. It is our intent to promote the practice of requesting competitive quotations in order to keep costs at a minimum and give interested vendors an equal opportunity to supply goods and services to the college.
The centralized purchasing function has many advantages for a campus and population the size of Merrimack College. It assures uniformity in purchasing policies and procedures and the interpretation thereof. It enables grouping of requirements for larger volume discounts, formalization of contracts, continuity of supply, extensive vendor/information base, standardization of products and an overall maximization of each dollar spent. Centralized purchasing gives us the ability to view the entire picture, to insure that our purchases reflect current economic/social conditions and trends.
The Procurement Department reports directly to the Vice President of Finance & CFO and consists of the Director of Procurement and one support staff. We belong to the National Association of Educational Buyers New England and subscribe to their code of ethics.

Inside the Army laboratory at Fort Detrick, the government's brain for biological defense, Bruce Edwards Ivins paused to memorialize his moment in the spotlight as the anthrax panic of 2001 reached its peak.
Dr. Ivins titled his e-mail message "In the lab" and attached photographs: the gaunt microbiologist bending over Petri dishes of anthrax, and colonies of the deadly bacteria, white commas against blood-red nutrient.
Outside, on that morning of Nov. 14, 2001, five people were dead or dying, a dozen more were sick and fearful thousands were flooding emergency rooms. The postal system was crippled; senators and Supreme Court justices had fled contaminated offices. And the Federal Beurea of Investigations was struggling with a microbe for a murder weapon and a crime scene that stretched from New York to Florida.

Boulud gets his pizza at Una Pizza Napoletana, his tapas at El Quinto Pino, Cuban sandwiches at Sandy's Lechoneria in Spanish Harlem, báhn mì at Nicky's, and "the best sushi after midnight" at Sushi Seki. He takes his staff to Daisy May's BBQ, but his favorite meal of all can be found at the Four Seasons. "If I want great food I can cook it for myself, but if I want an experience I go to the Four Seasons," Boulud said. He described the vanilla ice cream and cotton-candy dessert there as "playful, witty and very American; it's childish but very professional, too." Childish but professional? We can live with that. We guess. Jeez.

The car industry might be at its lowest point of esteem, but there's still room to celebrate the basics — at times the automobile is a wonder of engineering and design. Design is a monograph intended for internal use at Mercedes-Benz, celebrating an often overlooked aspect of the companies success. Thanks to Wallpaper* a few choice images have emerged for public consumption.

Katie Cassidy was the only one who really impressed me at this event.
Jessica Stroup's 'Best Red Carpet Newcomber of 2009' title is being strongly contested by this girl.
Katie was by far the best dress of the night wearing a watermelon Paule Ka Spring 2009 skirt with tulip bubble details, which she paired with a purple bustier trimmed with lace.
As always the pumps don't really work for me, but everything else – including her Louis Vuitton Motard satin clutch – is perfection.
Noot Seear opted for an edgier/laidback look wearing a Phi Fall 2009 leather skirt with an asymmetrical exposed zipper and a white tank.
I really dislike the shoes with this look.
Editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue Amy Astley, arrived at this D&G sponsored party wearing a grape D&G Fall 2009 top with voluminous sleeves, paired with navy pants.
Kelly Osbourne's D&G black satin dress was covered with black and white shamrock appliqués on the sleeves to make the dress more interesting.
"Dancing With the Stars" is paying off. She looks amazing.
Victoria Justice looks so grown up, but not too old in her poppy red BCBG Max Azria sleeveless shift dress.
The dress is covered with hundreds of red paillette's which matches her ruby lips.
Naturi Naughton didn't go all out this time.
Instead wearing a simple one-shouldered jersey dress, but add a bit of drama to her look opting for a large jeweled belt.
Chelsea Staub's canary yellow dress would have stood out on the red carpet.
I love the gold detailed neckline on her BCBG Max Azria dress.
I love Miranda Cosgrove's floaty ribbon print D&G dress.
It's nice, but not too cutesy.
It very much suits her style and personality.
I feel a bit disappointed by AnnaLynne McCord's look.
I expected her to be in the same league as Katie, but I'm really unimpressed by this look.
Jessica Lowndes wore a cute strapless dress with a sequined bodice plus a black and white skirt.
I feel like I see this look on Jessica quite a bit. I love her to try something new.
Lily Collins opted for a black D&G strapless dress.
Selena Gomez wore a silky black and grey ensemble.
Ashley Tisdale wore a Kate Moss for Topshop Trophy studded dress, which draped low enough to expose her bra through the sheer part of the dress.
Her dress was paired with Christian Louboutin snake skin heels.
Jesscia Stroup opted for a black BCBG Max Azria jumpsuit paired with a green clutch and black open-toe booties.

Beautiful dichroic glass pendants with New Zealand native palm tree
One-off dichroic glass pendant: New Zealand native palm tree
These jewellery items are indeed little glass artworks created by JackieM and her husband Stephen. We came across these beautiful pendants while on our South Island road trip. We are tempted to keep ALL pendants... just love these little glass art pendants.
Once a pendant is sold, we can order new ones, however, you will always receive a totally unique pendant. The pendants will never be exactly the same.

Types of Pastry
Are You Flaky When It Comes to French Pastry Facts?
Liberté, egalité, fraternité: Happy (almost) Bastille Day! Sunday (July 14th) marks the anniversary of France's national holiday, which commemorates the storming of the Bastille, which began the French Revolution. While Parisians celebrate with fireworks and parades, I'll be starting my day off on the right foot with a pain au chocolat and a café au lait (and ending it with a glass of Burgundy or Beaujolais, no doubt). I thought it'd be fun to entice you with a number of pastry fun facts. Do you know much about these buttery baked goods, or are you just good at enjoying them? Find out when you take this quiz!
Are You Flaky When It Comes to French Pastry Facts?
Besides France, pain au chocolat is also a breakfast fixture in what country?

The Los Angeles Lakers are playing at Toyota Center against the Rockets on Tuesday night. There are tickets available.
I wouldn't buy one if I were you. Lakers coach Mike D'Antoni might decide his star players need a break and leave Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol at home.
The Rockets are at home against Dallas on Dec. 7. Don't buy a ticket for that one, either. No Dirk Nowitzki? No O.J. Mayo?
Definitely avoid the Dec. 8 home game against San Antonio. We know now that Spurs coach Gregg Popovich's players aren't up to an 82-game schedule and are likely to take any night off. Four of his top players, Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobli and Danny Green, didn't play at Miami last Thursday night, didn't even show up for the game, flying home instead.
Boston plays at Toyota Center on Dec. 14. Not only should you not be there in case Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Rajon Rondo aren't, ESPN should cancel its live broadcast of the game. The network could fill the time with Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith arguing about Tim Tebow.
And why should the Rockets take Jeremy Lin to New York for a homecoming game in Madison Square Garden? Knicks fans can't wait to see him again, but who cares about them? It's bound to be a very emotionally draining game for Lin. I'm not sure the Rockets should put him through that.
You probably get my point by now.
If not, I'll add one more of particular local interest. Much of the Houston market can't see Rockets games on television because of the difficulty Comcast has had in selling its sports channel to other distributors. If the best players aren't playing, for any other reason besides injury, the Rockets become even less valuable as a television attraction.
The only concern I have over David Stern's punishment of the Spurs for clearly flaunting NBA rules was that it wasn't severe enough. A $250,000 find might not be considered as much deterrent by some teams.
But Stern had no choice but to take some action. Popovich's desire to rest players, especially at the end of a grueling six-game road trip so that he can keep them fresh for the remainder of the season, is understandable from a coach's perspective. His job is to win a title.
(Perhaps he should get younger players. Or perhaps the NBA should reconsider the length of the regular season, although that is unlikely because it would cost owners and players money.)
Stern's job, however, is more vital to the health of the sport. When he became commissioner, so few fans cared about who won the NBA championship that the games weren't even carried live on national television.
By training, he is a lawyer. Through experience, he has become professional sports' best salesman. He knows what he's selling, not only the world's best basketball league but entertainment.
Make it possible for the stars to play only when they feel like it, or when their coaches feel like playing them, and you have made the game less entertaining for your most valuable players–the fans.
Popovich, incredibly, has a lot of supporters among media. None of them probably had to tell a young boy recently that the game he would be seeing at Toyota Center, perhaps the only game NBA game he will see this season, wouldn't include Derrick Rose.
But at least he could understand the explanation, an injury. He would not have understood if he had been told that Rose was just too tired to show up that night. It would have been a memory he would have carried with him for the rest of his life and perhaps even passed on to his children.
Even Popovich acknowledged his actions weren't fair to Miami fans, who won't have another chance during the regular season to see Duncan, Parker, etc. He did it anyway.
His priorities might be correct for the Spurs as a basketball team. I would guess most Spurs fans agree with him and believe Stern overreacted.
So here's one solution: Popovich, if he decides to continue violating the rules, should rest his stars at home.

UK Air Passenger Duty on upgrades
If you upgrade to a higher class, the higher Air Passenger Duty rate applies and we will collect the difference from you.
We will collect this amount through our Air New Zealand Contact Centre if your upgrade is confirmed before your departure from London Heathrow, but if we can't contact you or if your upgrade isn't confirmed until time of departure, then you will need to pay this amount at our service desk at London Heathrow.
If your upgrade cannot be confirmed until the departure gate, your credit card details will be taken at check-in, but only processed if you are successfully upgraded. You will be given a receipt prior to departure.
I've requested an upgrade from Premium Economy to Business Premier. Will I have to pay an extra amount?
No. The Airpoints Dollar rate for Premium Economy and Business Class is the same.
How much will I need to pay?
The amount payable for upgrades from Economy Class into Premium Economy or Business Premier on flights leaving London Heathrow vary depending on your destination as follows:
London to Los Angeles and/or New Zealand = £71
From 01/04/16 London to Los Angeles and/or New Zealand = £73
(includes all flight connections* within 24 hours of arrival in Los Angeles through to all US destinations, Canada and China.)
If two or more international flights are connected, it is the final destination of the connected flight which determines the duty liability.
Are children included?
Yes. If a child is upgraded from Economy class to one of the higher classes, the higher Air Passenger Duty will apply (at the same rate as for an adult) and the difference is payable before the applicable flight.
What happens if I'm travelling with an infant?
There will be no additional charge for Infants below the age of two who are not occupying a seat. If a seat is purchased for the infant then on upgrading from Economy to Premium Economy or Business Premier, the higher Air Passenger Duty will apply and the difference is payable before the applicable flight.
Are there any other exemptions?
Passengers who are on EU inbound connecting flights (within 24 hours) e.g. Copenhagen to London then London to Los Angeles, are not liable to pay Air Passenger Duty. The connecting flights must be detailed on the same ticket, or if purchased online, must be purchased at the same time through the same portal. If you have paid Air Passenger Duty (GB) on your original ticket for Economy class, then you need to pay the additional amount if you upgrade into one of the higher service classes.
What currency will I be charged in?
If your upgrade is confirmed prior to departure and we are able to make contact with you, then the additional amount will be charged in the currency that your original ticket was purchased with. For example, if you purchased the ticket originally in New Zealand Dollars (NZD), then the additional amount will be charged in NZD, using the current Bank Selling Rate to convert the applicable charge from British Pounds (GBP).
If your upgrade is confirmed and we are unable to contact you, or your upgrade is confirmed on the day of departure, then you will be charged in GBP at London Heathrow at time of check-in.
* Flights are considered to be 'connecting flights' if they are within 24 hours and are detailed on the same ticket, or if purchased online, must be purchased at the same time through the same portal.
See the Airpoints Terms and Conditions for full programme details.

The screen on my Amazon Kindle 3 recently broke so I decided to test the device's accessibility. Although the manual for the device instructs you on how to enable Voice Guide, a feature that reads menus to you aloud, it does so in a way that would not be of any use to someone with impaired vision. So, for those who aren't able to visually navigate the Kindle 3, here is a blind guide to enable Voice Guide:
- Power the Kindle on (slide the Power Switch to the right and let it spring back to its original position on the left, the Power Switch is located on the bottom right edge of the kindle)
- Press the Home button to make sure you begin at the home screen (bottom row of buttons on face of Kindle, second long oval key from the right)
- Press the Menu button (top row of buttons on face of Kindle, the only long oval key on the far right)
- Press the down direction key five times on the 5-way pad to get to the Settings Menu (the 5-way pad is the square navigation pad occupying the far right of rows 2 and 3 on the kindle keyboard, the down button is the bottom edge of the square)
- Press the select button on the 5-way pad to select Settings (the select button is the middle button on the 5-way pad, it is not raised and is in the middle of the square)
- You are now on Page 1 of 3 of the settings menu
- Press the Next Page button to get to Page 2 (the lower and larger of the two buttons on the right or left edge of the Kindle)
- You are now on Page 2 of 3 and Voice Guide is selected by default
- Press the select button on the 5-way pad to turn Voice guide on
- Your Kindle 3 should now be reading the menu items to you
Once you have selected a document to read, you will need to press Shift and Sym(bol) simultaneously to enable Text-To-Speech reading. Shift is the bottom-left-most circular button on the face of the Kindle, Symbol is the 9th circular button from the left in the third row of buttons on the face of the Kindle.

Canyon Ranch Triple Wrap Bracelet
Product Description
This Canyon Ranch Triple Wrap Bracelet, by west Texas artist Deborah Sparshott, is beautifully designed and exquisitely constructed. What is it that produces the unique Desert Heart look, you may ask? Well, besides designer Deborah Sparshott's keen sense of color and design, the carefully considered range of materials contribute to the unique effect. Deborah selects all the materials- subtle shades and specially finished Austrian crystal, vintage beads not seen in decades, a palette of semi-precious stones and beads, metal stampings, charms and chains from America's golden age of costume jewelry, the natural beauty of freshwater pearls. Most metals feature an antique finish to heighten the look of timeworn elegance. Deborah shops the major markets and selects only a small amount of what is available- the most unique colors and cuts, the most evocative charms, the most distinctive chains.
This beautiful piece includes:Rutilated quartz, crystal quartz, fire agate, glass, pewter, silver plated brass.

SQLSaturday is a training event for SQL Server professionals and those wanting to learn about SQL Server. This event will be held Sep 29 2012 at Seminole State College, Main Campus, 100 Weldon Boulevard Bld, University Partnership Building, Sanford, FL 32773. Admittance to this event is free, but we do charge a lunch fee of 10.00 so that we can provide a lunch - not pizza! Please register soon as seating is limited, and let friends and colleagues know about the event.
In this session, we'll take a holistic look at the BI features in the latest version of SQL Server by reviewing the architecture requirements, exploring the implications for existing BI applications, and introducing new capabilities that support the transformation of data into business insight. We'll start with data integration and management by reviewing the overhaul that Integration Services received in this release, how to formalize the data cleansing process by using the new Data Quality Services, and how master data management is improved with the updates to Master Data Services. Then we'll discuss the improvements to analytical capabilities by exploring updates to Analysis Services, including the new Tabular Model, and enhancements available in PowerPivot. Last, we'll cover the new presentation layer options available in Reporting Services and the new release of Power View. Of course, you'll see demonstrations of the new features, but the primary purpose of this session is to give you a chance to ask lots of questions and to get a look "under the hood" to better understand what you'll need to do to get these BI features up and running properly. You'll also learn how to prepare your data environment to leverage these features and how best to manage the user experience.
Stacia Misner is a consultant, educator, mentor, and author specializing in Business Intelligence solutions since 1999. With more than 25 years of experience in IT, she is the author or co-author of twelve books about BI. Her most recent book is Introducing Microsoft SQL Server 2012 and she is working on Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services to be released in summer of 2012. Stacia provides consulting and custom education services through Data Inspirations, writes about her experiences with BI at blog.datainspirations.com, and tweets as @StaciaMisner.
This full day seminar will teach you introductory, intermediate and advanced techniques for troubleshooting and performance tuning using SQL Server's built-in Dynamic Management Views (DMVs), Performance Monitor, Profiler, Wait Stats, and Extended Events. In troubleshooting, you'll learn how to detect, diagnose, and resolve problems on SQL Server using the native tools, as well as how to determine where SQL Server is experiencing bottlenecks that prevent it from achieving optimal performance. Bring your laptop with SQL Server 2008 R2 and AdventureWorks R2 to work through the labs as Kevin demonstrates various techniques. (SQL Server 2005 is also allowable, but you will not be able to demo those that are specific to SQL Server 2008 R2).
Kevin Kline is a renowned database expert and software industry veteran. A long-time Microsoft SQL Server MVP and noted leader in the IT industry, Kevin is a founder and former president of PASS and the author of popular IT books like SQL in a Nutshell. Kevin is a top-rated speaker at industry trade shows worldwide. He tweets at @kekline and blogs at KevinEKline.com
