If you're a student, you may have harbored the fantasy of learning lessons while you sleep. Who wouldn't want to stick on a pair of headphones, grab some shut-eye with a lesson about, say, Chinese history playing in his ears — and wake up with newly acquired knowledge of the Ming Dynasty?
Sadly, it doesn't work. The history lesson either keeps you from going to sleep, or it doesn't — in which case you don't learn it.
But researchers may have taken the first baby step to making the fantasy come true: In an unusual experiment published in Nature Neuroscience, researchers Anat Arzi, Ilana Hairston and others showed that people are capable of learning simple lessons while fast asleep.
The researchers sprayed volunteers with pleasant and unpleasant smells while they were fast asleep. Exactly like people who are awake, the sleeping volunteers took bigger breaths when there was a pleasant smell and a smaller breath when there was an unpleasant smell.
The researchers also paired each kind of smell with a particular sound. After repeated pairings of, say, a pleasant smell with a high-pitched beep, the researchers played the high-pitched beep without the smell: They found the volunteers took a big gulp of air. At least subconsciously, in other words, they were expecting the pleasant smell.
The researchers similarly paired an unpleasant smell – rotting fish – with another kind of tone. After repeated pairings, the tone alone caused the volunteers to take a smaller breath.
The phenomenon is known as conditioning, a simple form of learning made famous by Ivan Pavlov and his dog.
When the volunteers woke up, the researchers played the different tones to them. They found that the high-pitched beep caused the volunteers to take a big breath and the low-pitched beep caused the volunteers to take a small breath.
In other words, the conditioning lesson learned while the volunteers were asleep stayed with them after they awoke. Interestingly, the volunteers had no conscious recollection of having learned anything while they were sleeping.
Hairston said the research could help unlock the effects that sleep has on different brain processes. It's been known for a while that a nap can help cement things you've learned; Hairston said the sleep mechanisms that consolidate knowledge may explain why volunteers in the current experiment were able to bring what they learned during sleep into waking hours.
Practical applications of the conditioning technique are still far off, of course. But speculating about potential future uses, Hairston said: "A medical student can learn a list of body organs. You can perhaps pair different organs with smells. So you pair the thalamus with the smell of lemon, and the hypothalamus with the smell of orange blossom. When you wake up, you will have a better recollection of that list!"
Next, we have the real-world version of a widespread fantasy - the idea that you could somehow learn while sleeping; that students returning to school this time of year could prep for a test in bed; that busy adults might play a tape, and learn French during nap. Real life does not really work like the fantasy. But Shankar Vedantam, NPR's science correspondent who looks at interesting social science research, has found some research that points in that direction.
Shankar, good morning.
SHANKAR VEDANTAM, BYLINE: Hi, Steve.
INSKEEP: So what's the idea here?
VEDANTAM: Well, we've known for a very long time that sleep can help you consolidate the things that you have already learned. So I spoke with a sleep researcher. Her name is Ilana Hairston. She's at the Academic College of Tel Aviv. Here's how she put it to me.
ILANA HAIRSTON: If you learn something in the morning, in the evening your learning has improved. But it's also been shown, this effect can be actually enhanced if you take a nap during the day.
INSKEEP: Wait a minute. So you're saying you learn something, then you take a nap; and after the nap, you better understand what you learned before the nap. That's what she's saying?
VEDANTAM: That's exactly what she's saying. Now, the question that she wanted to answer is, it's clear that sleep can consolidate what you have already learned. But is it possible that you can actually learn something new while you're sleeping? And of course, that goes right back to the fantasy you laid out at the top of this - which is a fantasy that I had throughout my student days - which is, I could just stick a pair of headphones on my ears, go to sleep, wake up and say hey, I've learned the history of the Ming Dynasty.
INSKEEP: OK. Has anybody tried this?
VEDANTAM: So, Hairston has conducted an experiment that I would have to say is the first baby step in that direction. She's found that the brain can learn fairly simple things while people are fast asleep. So here's the experimental setup. She and her colleagues bring a bunch of people into the laboratory, a sleep laboratory, hook them up with meters. Now, when the volunteers are completely fast asleep, the researchers sprayed them with a pleasant smell - like the smell of shampoo or deodorant.
VEDANTAM: And they found that the volunteers took a deep breath. And that's exactly what people do when they're awake. Now, every time there was a pleasant smell, the researchers also played a beep - like, a high-pitched beep, right? And they paired the pleasant smell with the beep, repeatedly. And they found that after 10 or 15 times of doing this, when they just played the high-pitched beep, the volunteers took a big breath.
INSKEEP: This is like that famous experiment with Pavlov and the dog, and the dog's mouth watering when the bell goes off - and that sort of thing.
VEDANTAM: Exactly. So it's called conditioning, and it's a very basic form of learning. Now, by the way, they also did the same thing with unpleasant smells. They used rotten fish, and they had a low-pitched beep. And this time, they found that the volunteers took a smaller breath when they had the unpleasant smell.
Now, the million-dollar question is, it's clear that the brain can learn to associate smells and sounds while it's asleep. But does this learning carry over into when the people are actually awake? So the researchers waited for the volunteers to wake up, and then they played these sounds to the volunteers. And they found that when they played the high-pitched beep, the volunteers took a big breath. They played the low-pitched beep; the volunteers took a small breath.
INSKEEP: OK. So it does carry, then, over to when you're awake. But that's a very, very simple - very, very basic form of learning; probably a little bit simpler than learning the Ming Dynasty.
VEDANTAM: It is a lot simpler than learning the Ming Dynasty. There were two interesting things about this. The first is, the volunteers had no conscious recollection of having learned anything at all. They woke up; they heard these sounds and took either a big breath, or a small breath.
INSKEEP: Mm-hmm.
VEDANTAM: Now, I asked Dr. Hairston about what the practical implications were; how quickly students would be able to utilize this research to essentially, supplant their entire educations. Here's what she told me.
HAIRSTON: A medical student can learn a list of body organs. You can - perhaps pair different organs with smells. So you pair the thalamus with smell of lemon, and the hypothalamus with smell of orange blossom. When you wake up, you will have a better recollection of that list.
INSKEEP: So they haven't quite figured out the practical applications.
VEDANTAM: Well, I think the practical implications, in terms of actually supplanting an entire education, is way down the road. But what this is, is a proof-of- concept study that shows that at least at a basic level, the brain is capable of learning new stuff while you are completely- fast asleep.
INSKEEP: NPR science correspondent Shankar Vedantam, who is refusing to confirm or deny whether he reported this entire story while asleep. Shankar, thanks very much.
VEDANTAM: (LAUGHTER) Thanks, Steve.

Individuals tend to believe sex servants are restricted to poorer nations. They exist all over. In the West, there are constantly stories about females who were tempted to an abundant nation in intend to discover a good task, yet they get pushed into sexual slavery to repay their supposed financial obligations.
Low-track sex employees are what lots of individuals presume is associated with the typical prostitute: drug-addicted females offering their bodies for next-to-nothing or for drugs. I have actually never ever come across one of these females, as they exist in another world absolutely various than the 'classy' world of prostitution. No one understands how or why these females ended up in such a desperate, harmful and susceptible location.
I might never ever comprehend why these lovely females would work on the street and have pimps (guys who take their cash). Later on I discovered that these females had a bad principle of self-governance, and were completely reliant on their pimps for survival (unfortunate, undoubtedly). The guideline stays that just females with pimps are permitted to walk in the designated 'high-track' location-- however this practice of 'elite' track has actually nearly vanished in current years.
Not all ladies share my fate.

The political, financial and social structures that control many of the world are deeply affecting why ladies are looking for relationships based on wealth rather than based on love. It likewise can be stated these aspects are affecting males to see ladies as items that can be basically "utilized" for sexual functions just.

I have actually even checked out about Khaleeji females who offer up their bodies (of course, not their virginity) to desperate Saudi males under the situation he 'spoils' them with a costly purse or shoes. These ladies are not to blame. I do not think prostitutes need to be condemned or thought about inferior simply since they offer their bodies, however something is awfully incorrect when females are doing it for overly-inflated designer purses and silicone breasts.

"This wasn't the way Susan Murphy thought she'd be spending her honeymoon: being attacked by a killer robot from beyond the stars. ... She's Ginormica -- and she's in trouble!" - Monsters Vs. Aliens: The Official Movie Adaptation by Andy LanningI don't know about you, but during the Superbowl halftime a couple months ago we donned on our 3-D glasses and watched the trailer for the upcoming movie, Monsters vs. Aliens. Since then we've been waiting for the release of the DreamWorks animated film. Tomorrow March 27, 2009, the movie opens in theaters everywhere.
As a tie-in to the movie, Titan Books just issued a couple of fantastic Monsters vs. Aliens graphic novels and gave us a sneak peak. For those not familiar with graphic novels, they are comic books taken to a new level. Kids LOVE graphic novels and so do adults. Graphic novels draw the reader into the story with sequential illustrations and corresponding text making them an especially good choice for reluctant readers.
Monsters Vs. Aliens: The Official Movie Adaptation by Andy Lanning, illustrated by Alex Dalton and S.L. Gallant. Titan Books (February 2009); 48 pages; ISBN 9781848562776This sturdy paperback book features the movie plot in graphic novel form. The story begins as Susan Murphy prepares for her wedding day and accidently gets hit by a meteor that turns her into the five stories tall, 23,632 pound monstrosity, Ginormica. Imprisoned in a secret government facility, she befriends other "monsters" named Dr. Cockroach, B.O.B., Link and Insectosaurus. When an evil alien named Gallaxhar attacks earth, she and her new friends are released to save the world. The graphic novel slant works well for telling this action-packed adventure story full of terms like KA-ZZZAPP and THRAABOOOOM! I enjoyed the humor involved, too, from the President attempting to make first contact with the aliens by jiving on an electric keyboard to the ridiculous kitty decor in the prison cell. With a female super-hero the book should appeal to both girls and boys.
Monsters Vs. Aliens: The M Files by Tom DeFalco and Robin Etherington with art by Fabio Laguna and Alex Dalton. Titan Books (February 2009); 48 pages; ISBN 9781848562813This prequel to the movie adaptation features two new and original Monsters vs. Aliens tales: "The 'M' Files" and "Brain Pain." "The 'M' Files" delves into the background and origins of the monsters featured in the movie. Readers learn of Link, an ancient Fish Man set free from his ice encasement; B.O.B., the result of a tomato experiment gone bad; Insectosaurus, tiny grub turned enormous from radiation exposure; and Dr. Cockroach, a brilliant scientist who accidently transformed himself into a cockroach-man. In the wordy "Brain Pain," B.O.B. the monster lacks a brain so through experimentation Dr. Cockroach makes him one. The smart B.O.B. renames himself "Bartholomew Organo Benedict" and pontificates using large words and phrases. Unfortunately, due to some miscalculations, the B.O.B. brain experiment doesn't go as expected. Contrary to the product description, Susan Murphy (a.k.a Ginormica) does NOT make an appearance anywhere in this book.
Win this graphic novel book set! Titan Books has kindly offered to give one Brimful Curiosities reader a set of the two Monsters Vs. Aliens graphic novels.

Überlingen, a hydrotherapy spa between Lake Constance and the snow-covered Alps, offers a mediterranean lake climate and a dazzling range of relaxing health breaks.
More than 60 years of experience in Kneipp-based natural healing have made Überlingen, a town on Lake Constance and since 1955 the only hydrotherapy spa in Baden-Württemberg, one of Germany's premier health resorts. In 2004 Überlingen was included in the list of cittaslow– a select group of exceptionally pleasant places offering a high quality of life. The range of naturopathic health treatments available here is particularly high.
Hydrotherapy spa with mediterranean flair
Sebastian Kneipp hydrotherapy and fasting cures can be booked at many hotels, as can Dr Otto Buchinger's fasting programmes and F. X. Mayr's nutritional therapy. Alongside these, visitors can take advantage of a broad range of activities. A 270km cycling and walking trail with various difficulty levels and a half-marathon route thread their way through spectacular scenery. The garden culture trail links the lake promenade and spa gardens, where many exotic plants thrive, with the municipal park and its exceptional cacti collection. Also worth visiting are Überlingen's magnificent municipal museum housed in a late-medieval patrician villa and Meersburg, a town with an impressive castle.
Sit back and relax
At any time of the year visitors can relax in the Lake Constance hot springs, which are located right on the shores of the lake. With thermal waters rising from a depth of 1,006 metres at a temperature of 36.2°C, not to mention soothing underwater music and light projections in the evenings, these pools are ideal for anyone wishing to soak away the stresses of everyday living.

Louis Comfort Tiffany is best known as the decorative artist who created works of stained glass, including lamps, vases and jewelry. But for antiques collectors, Tiffany's lesser known and larger works, such as the leaded-glass windows hanging in New York's Park Avenue Armory, provide the most astonishing evidence of his individual genius.
This weekend, lovers of Tiffany and all things antique and artistic have one last chance to see those windows along with many other one-of-a-kind works at the Armory's Winter Antiques Show 2013, where a New York mix of young art and design enthusiasts, connected gallery owners and seasoned high-net-worth collectors crowd together to look at—and shop for—museum-quality historic works.
For example, on view at the Geoffrey Diner Gallery's booth is a Tiffany fire screen made in 1905 of favrile glass and wrought iron. The fire screen was once the property of the Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester, N.Y., but it was "deacquisitioned," in antique dealers' parlance, and is now available for sale at a cool $2 million or so.
"This is an absolutely stunning piece. This is a tour de force object," said Jennifer Garland Ross, managing director for art advisory and appraisal consortium Art Peritus, during a Tuesday press tour of some of the Winter Antiques Show's delights prior to a cocktail party sponsored by the Chubb Group of Insurance Companies.
(Gallery owner Geoffrey Diner said a couple of collectors showed interest in the piece but then backed away after hearing the price.)
The Tiffany work is also a stunningly good example of why collectors need to protect and preserve their antiques and get appraisals for them, said Kathleen Tierney, executive vice president of Chubb & Son and chief operating officer of Chubb Personal Insurance.
"You don't want to be telling the claims adjuster why your art is special at the time of claim," Tierney observed in an interview after Garland Ross' tour.
New collectors are especially prone to being surprised by the depth of the process involved in appraising and protecting antiques, she said. For example, Chubb's services include assistance with display, lighting, safety and travel of precious works, plus specialized loss-prevention analysis such as infrared thermography.
Chubb is no stranger to the Armory. Headquartered in Warren, N.J., the multibillion-dollar global property and casualty insurance firm has sponsored the Winter Antiques Show's loan exhibitions for 17 years.
In addition to the goodwill it engenders, Chubb's sponsorships bring together high-net-worth individuals, brokers, wealth management companies, family offices and other "communities of interest," Tierney said. "The Armory show is a social community but also helps drive value and establish markets."
That community was the size of a small town on Tuesday, when 1,600 antiques lovers showed up at Chubb's cocktail shindig to nibble appetizers, sip champagne and gorge themselves on objets.

Heavy metals, can anyone answer?

I am curious as to what impact heavy metals have on the body (both positive and negative)?
And, if at all possible, does anyone know what impact they have on negative ions and positive ions both inside the body and in the immediate vincinity of the body?

Thank you very much.
Anyone have anything on positive/negative ion impact in terms of heavy metals?
April 9, 2012 at 7:07 am #110546AstraSequiParticipant
The majority of all the molecules in your body are ions (all phospholipids, almost all proteins, ATP, NAD+…) Of course many of these would be affected by any toxin to some degree, but I can't think of any reason why their ionic state would be important for this. It is not as if the heavy metals could cause a change in the overall (neutral) charge of our body, since the body is a conductor and we are constantly grounding ourselves throughout the day.
Could you be more specific in your question?

I would like to know if it is possible that the introduction of heavy metals (which have a positive surface charge but I was looking to verify that) would have either a net increase or decrease on the overall ion charge – either bias towards positive or negative or just retaining any charge in general.
You are right the body is a conductor (60% to 80% conductivity if I recall correctly?), however, given that feet often aren't directly earthed (given shoes are often made of insulating material), I am curious as to whether or not a negative or positive ion charge could be stored (must be possible given static electric shocks) in the human body, and whether or not heavy metals in an amount (or even electrolytes – given they too are ionic compounds) can allow the body to hold a greater charge (whether negative or positive or even both) over all?
April 9, 2012 at 7:59 pm #110556DarbyParticipant
The toxic concentrations of most heavy metals should be too low to really affect overall charge levels.
April 10, 2012 at 12:10 am #110558quote Darby:The toxic concentrations of most heavy metals should be too low to really affect overall charge levels.
I'm dealing with a theoretical situation presented where individuals are exposed to the working conditions of a smelting plant, that are (due to poor health and safety laws) exposed to constant vapour consisting of heavy metals. Ignoring precise dosage amounts (this might either be high or low), I am curious as to whether or not hypothetically if heavy metals could alter charge levels? I am assuming, given the presented situation of constant smelting plant exposure, the levels would build up to perhaps even dangerously high levels over time.
I am also curious about whether or not electrolytes (I am assuming abnormal balancing of the electrolytes in this situation) could alter charge? Although this is separate from the heavy metals question, but part of the same line of thinking.
April 10, 2012 at 7:44 am #110564JackBeanParticipant
No, they will hardly efect something like "charge levels", whatever should it be.
Anyway, some metals are needed for the body in very low amount (Cu, Mn, Co, lots of them), but in higher amounts they are toxic due to protein denaturation leading eventually to renal failure. That's long story very short 🙂
April 10, 2012 at 8:49 am #110566quote JackBean:No, they will hardly efect something like "charge levels", whatever should it be.
Then by what mechanism does static electricity work? Because in order for it to work, a (negative) charge has to be maintained on the body until a sufficient positive-negative ion exchange (I.E touching a grounded or metal source) is available. Surely electrolytes, which are ionic compounds that affect conductivity (variable depending on type) of the blood plasma (liquids), and the heavy metals, which have a positive surface charge (thus drawing negative ions to it), would allow for a greater (I would say negative) charge to be held (irregardless as to precise amount so long as a greater charge can indeed be held)?
I suppose, if I was to rephrase, would either heavy metals or electrolytes have any effect on the capacitance of the body, even if minuscule amounts?
The reason I ask is because I am trying to determine why certain individuals (who appear to have problems with electrolytic levels) are more suspect to electrical shocks during storms (storms generate negative ions, the body being a conductor and thus a lightning rod of sorts would be able to perhaps pick up such negative ions allowing it to build up and discharge even in an environment that does not permit fiction to build up the static charge) compared to individuals (like myself) who have normal electrolytic levels who experience no such shocks during storms. I'm perusing the heavy metals (given they too, are ionic compounds) as a side consideration and for thoroughness.
A shocking suggestion, I know.
April 11, 2012 at 12:07 am #110576AstraSequiParticipant
(This post was partially written yesterday, but I didn't finish writing it until after your latest post, so I'm not sure if it's coherent. Please ask again if you have any questions.)
A net charge (positive or negative) can be stored on your body, but it is neutralized by a flow of electrons (not "positive-negative ion exchange," as you said) whenever you ground yourself. This is constantly happening throughout the day ‒ it's just that you don't notice it unless the charge is large enough. Static electricity is what happens when you build up sufficient charge for you to feel that flow of electrons. The effect is the same whether the charge is positive or negative.
So for practical purposes, the maximum net charge you would ever store is very small. If you tried to avoid ever grounding yourself, then the amount of (net) charge your body can hold is determined by what will electrocute you. However, I can't think of a reason why this threshold could be easily manipulated, and I think that doing so would probably involve changes in the structure of your cells and organs.
I should also point out that voltage will have an effect as well (capacitance is only proportional to the maximum net charge (q) that can be held, which is calculated by q = CV). I've also been assuming that you want to stay alive, but I think that the actual q is higher than the q that will kill you.
Even if you consumed something charged (which is very unlikely, since pretty much all ions exist in positive/negative pairs such that the net charge is neutral – and the effect would be no different from just touching whatever it was anyways), then the next time you grounded yourself the charge would still disappear. Charge is not the reason why heavy metals are toxic. 🙂 Similarly, it is not the reason that your body needs ATP, etc.
You can quite easily increase the total numbers of ions in your body with no effects, since something with a net charge of zero has no electrical effects. Of course, I mean no effects that are specifically due to the charge – for example, if you consume a lot of salt there may be other problems, and your body will just get rid of the excess anyways. There is some separation of charges within the body, such as in the nerves, but in those cases it is the gradient (potential) that is important and not the absolute numbers of ions (above a certain minimum).
Also, electrical storms do not generate negative ions – or at least, that is not the entire story. They generate both negative and positive ions, setting up a voltage between the clouds and the ground. When the voltage becomes strong enough to discharge through the air, then you get lightning. To generate negative charges alone would violate the Law of Conservation of Charge.
I'm also not sure why you'd specifically look at heavy metals, since they tend to be found only in tiny quantities even under toxic conditions, as mentioned above, and it is net (absolute) charge that is the important factor in electrical discharges. Why would you think that certain individuals are more susceptible to electrical storms?

Thank you for your reply.
To quickly address a couple of points – I'm not saying the positive surface charge of the heavy metals is causing the toxicity (I'm just inquiring into their effects as it's a long chain of reasoning that appears completely disjointed on the surface).quote AstraSequi:I'm also not sure why you'd specifically look at heavy metals, since they tend to be found only in tiny quantities even under toxic conditions, as mentioned above, and it is net (absolute) charge that is the important factor in electrical discharges. Why would you think that certain individuals are more susceptible to electrical storms?
I've been speaking with a number of people who've reported getting electric shocks (quite a number at that), however they don't have the conditions sufficient (I.E. they don't have nylon and wool or typical transferrent surfaces that charge it) to generate the negative ions, suggesting an unconventional system. After hearing a number of similar cases I concluded it wasn't by conventional means and was too frequent to dismiss. But not everybody reported getting shocks during storms (I personally don't) and it suggests to me there must be a unique mechanism behind it.
I had, during my own time, found a comment of an individual who purchased a negative ioniser and got electric shocks when it was switched on (which sounded like the cases I had read), and I wondered if there was a relation, so, after obtaining a negative ion generator to test the hypothesis I placed one hand directly over the generator (but not touching) so I would absorb the negative ions on one hand – and naturally got an electric shock (through both my left hand, right hand, and even ear via the earphones I had on). On this basis one knows that negative ions can cause electric shocks once built up (they don't discharge before hand because my body isn't grounded – but then again, neither is the external plastic case of the laptop it jumped to). Seem obvious enough, at first.
Negative ions are generated in storms, but that's not sufficient enough to imply a causation or even correlation between the cases. So to test the hypothesis backwards, I inquired as to whether or not the electric shocks occurred during storms. Sure enough, it was confirmed they did. And to further test another theory, I inquired if such individuals had headaches just before a storm occurs (which rests on the thesis that positive ions cause headaches in individuals who are sensitive to it), to which they also confirmed.
Based on this information, it suggests to me that during the evaporative processes of rainwater (which raises up – the opposite direction to a shower), negative ions are built up into the clouds (I suppose a basis for lightning, which is also negative voltage?), leaving a higher concentration of positive ions on the ground (which begins to trigger the headaches), which when the storm then occurs, the negative ions are then dumped (like in a shower), which then causes the electric shocks in the suspect individuals (who are already sensitive to the headaches).
My theory is, given this seems to be a common problem amongst the group, that an electrolyte (or ionic compound, depending on your preference) imbalance is responsible, given they would impact conductivity of the blood plasma (altering how conductive the body is to surrounding ions) and perhaps even how much of a charge can be carried. As with all theories, I need to establish the clear mechanism behind this process before it has any value, and as such, I'm seeing if electrolytes/heavy metals (heavy metals being another theory) could have any impact by inquiry.
Perhaps I am looking in the wrong place by looking at storage capacity (because I felt the individuals would need some way to store the ions initially before getting the shock), and it really is a matter of conductivity and therefore sensitivity to the ions that I need to be analysing.

David Ortiz:
Today I was informed by a reporter that I was on the 2003 list of MLB players to test positive for performance-enhancing substances. This happened right before our game, and the news blindsided me. I said I had no comment because I wanted to get to the bottom of this.Michael Schmidt of the New York Times reported this morning that both Ortiz and Manny Ramirez tested positive in 2003.
I want to talk about this situation and I will as soon as I have more answers. In the meantime I want to let you know how I am approaching this situation. One, I have already contacted the Players Association to confirm if this report is true. I have just been told that the report is true. Based on the way I have lived my life, I am surprised to learn I tested positive. Two, I will find out what I tested positive for. And, three, based on whatever I learn, I will share this information with my club and the public. You know me - I will not hide and I will not make excuses.
I want to thank my family, the Red Sox, my teammates, and the fans for their patience and support.
As you can see from this screenshot of this Globe webpage -- 11:30 PM Thursday -- both Tony Massarotti and Dan Shaughnessy have chosen to immediately jump to the conclusion that "Big Papi is a myth", he is "forever damaged", and "his entire Red Sox career is a lie".
Me, I'm going to save my judgment until more information is known. That may not be the norm among sports columnists -- where the goal often seems to be proclaiming louder and more self-righteously from the rooftops than anyone else -- but what do I know? I'm a mere blogger.
Notice that these mainstream pundits are doing exactly what they deride bloggers of doing -- passing immediate judgment before all the facts are known.

Angels take 2 out of 3 in Minnesota + Memorial Weekend Highlights
A spectacular, improbable come from behind win. A heartbreaking extra innings loss following a brilliant pitching performance by Jered Weaver. Dan Haren's luck finally changed as the offense rallied to his support early and often. What a weekend! And that's just the baseball part. So, what was the best part of my weekend?
Peter Bourjos' amazing catches? Whether we're talking about the catch on Friday or any of the others this weekend, Bourjos was a human highlight reel. And he wasn't too shabby at the plate either. (I'm ignoring the hot potato incident with Torii Hunter in right field as a one-time only thing, unless proven wrong.)
The fact that the offense came out to play in two out of three games? Erick Aybar, Torii Hunter, Alberto Callaspo, Bobby Abreu and Mark Trumbo, I applaud you! Now, how about the offense coming out to play for three out of three games in Kansas City? The Angels need to redeem themselves in KC this week.
The exciting come from behind win on Friday night? By the way, arent the Twins supposed to be a last place team? Because they sure weren't playing like it this weekend. They were a very good team this weekend. The Angels seem to bring that out in other teams. Um…thanks??
Jered Weaver's nine lights out, two-hit, shutout innings? All that and no W? Very sad and very frustrating for Weaver, I'm sure. But that doesn't make the feat any less fantastic.
The game night (of the board and card variety) we hosted on Saturday? That's right, we decided to be social at the expense of some of the ballgame. Me, a few of my favorite smart asses in the whole wide world, a moderately epic quantity of wine, good food and games, games and more games until the wee hours of the morning. It was just what the doctor ordered for some much need stress relief.
Kicking some strategy game ass on Saturday? Yes gentlemen, I may have consumed more wine than you but don't think that means I will wale on you any less. *evil laugh*
Turning the TV off on Saturday, because we had non-baseball friends over, when Jered Weaver was mid-gem, before the traumatically disappointing end? In hindsight at least, this is a good thing.
Dan Haren finally getting a much deserved 5th win? It's funny. Haren has joked in interviews that after losing a few games where he pitched lights out, his next win would probably be a less than stellar performance with full run support…and that is exactly what happened. I don't care, Haren's a little off is better than a lot of pitchers on and the man was due.
Mark Trumbo's homerun into the upper deck? And this was on an inside pitch where he couldn't extend his arms!
The Bullpen? Well, on Friday and Sunday at least. Yes, Walden let things get a little more exciting than necessary Sunday but he pulled it off. They all did. They came to the mound for their inning or part of an inning and got it done.
Hitting the bike trail with my husband after the ballgame on Sunday? It was only a 6 and a half mile ride in and around Santa Fe Dam. I might even have said pathetic once. But it's been two years since I was last able to ride my bike and bike riding was pretty high up on the list of things my knee might never quite be up to again, so I'm going to go with Bravo! …and thank you reformer Pilates.
The weekend's not over yet because we both have Monday off, the game starts at 1:30 and there is still the possibility of many of these things happening all over again?
Yeah, these are all great things, but I'm going to go with that last one!

Briston Walker swished a 3-pointer to pull the Panthers within a point in the final moments of overtime.
The spirited home blackout crowd cheered loud and proud Tuesday night at Ron Wright Memorial Gym.
But in the waning seconds, the Panthers needed one more 3. Brackin Whiteskunk's 3-point attempt at the buzzer clanked off the rim and the Panthers came up short to the rival Durango Demons, 69-66.
"We couldn't get this one," said Walker, who suited up in his road black uniform with the rest of his team for the school's "blackout" theme. "I don't think it's because they're playing better than us. I think we're just hurting ourselves. We could have got more box outs and got (more) offensive rebounds."
A classic rivalry game for the ages, the Panthers and Demons needed more than 32 minutes to settle the score at Montezuma-Cortez High School.
The Panthers (5-12, 2-6 4A Southwestern League) trailed 49-41 late in the fourth quarter and forged another late home comeback.
Alex Lopez found Whiteskunk open for 3 and the sharpshooter delivered to put M-CHS on top 50-49, capping a 9-0 run. Durango (13-4, 6-2 SWL) answered back when Nick Hamlin scored in the low post to put the Demons up 1.
It was tied 53-53 at the end of regulation, and the rivals battled back-and-forth in the extra frame. But in the end, Durango's William Frownfelter and Ty Elliott sank their free throws to ultimately sink M-CHS. Overtime turnovers and defensive miscommunication proved costly for the home team as well.
"I just told the boys, 'We'll get them back in the district tournament,'" Panthers coach Cory Gropp said. "I don't think Durango beat us. I think we beat ourselves. There's a couple times where we told the boys to 'Stop trying to go over the screen on (No.) 3 (Frownfelter).' He just kept getting jump shot after jump shot."
The Panthers started slow, falling behind early in the first quarter, 7-0. M-CHS got back in the game attacking the Demons press and getting ahead of the defense for easy layups.
Lopez penetrated the Durango D and bounce passed the rock to Whiteskunk for the deuce, giving the Panthers their first lead at 15-13.
Walker and Lopez led the attack in the second quarter, as M-CHS built a 29-24 cushion. But Durango responded with five straight to tie the game at 29 going into the break at halftime.
Walker and Frownfelter exchanged outside shooting blows in the third quarter. Durango took a 43-39 lead into the fourth, setting up the game's final fireworks that received a 4-minute overtime encore.
"I can't question how hard the boys played. They played hard tonight," Gropp said. "Briston stepped up and hit a couple 3s for us. That was clutch. He's been playing at a high level."
Walker led a trio of Panthers that scored in double figures with 22 points. Whiteskunk and Lopez each had 19 and 15, respectively.
"We've been doing really good. We're starting to play as a team instead of individually," Walker said. "We're going to go hard these next two games and try to win them."
Frownfelter recorded a game high 26 points for the visiting Demons.
The Panthers conclude the regular season Friday and Saturday at home versus league foes Grand Junction and Montrose at 7:30 and 1:30 p.m.

St. Bonaventure University's new Health and Human Performance Lab has received a $19,435 grant from the Manley Trust.
Funding will go towards the purchase of lab equipment and will be used jointly by students and faculty in the biology, sport studies and physical education programs.
Only 15 of 31 applications were approved by the Manley Trust for funding, with an average of $10,000 granted. St. Bonaventure University's $19,435 was the largest grant awarded this year.
The human performance measurement equipment will allow students to gain hands-on experience while utilizing actual tools used in the health and wellness professions.
Faculty will be able to use this equipment to conduct research studies, and the long-term goal of the center is to become a community center for health and wellness where students help children and families that are coping with non-communicable diseases (heart disease, stroke, and diabetes in particular).
The lab is located in room 29 of the Reilly Center, the old Students in Money Management room in the basement directly beneath the post office.
Dr. Nick Mitchell, from the biology department, and Dr. Paul Brawdy, from the physical education department, co-wrote the grant proposal. Claire Watson, chair of the sport studies program; Michael Beardsley, lecturer in sport studies; Wolfgang Natter, dean of the School of Arts and Sciences; Larry Sorokes, associate vice president and executive director of Grants Administration and Lifelong Learning; Mary Driscoll, vice president for University Advancement; and Joseph E. Zimmer, Ph. D., dean of the School of Education, were part of the working group to make the lab a reality on campus.
The lab will extend learning outside classrooms as students will have the chance to learn how to assess body composition (body fat), muscular endurance, cardiovascular indices (EKG, blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation), muscular power and how to determine the cardiovascular/muscular limitations of an individual. In addition, students will be provided with learning tools to use to accompany their lectures in nutrition, fitness and wellness, biokinesiology, and exercise physiology.
Watson said the use of this lab is not just intended for sport studies and physical education majors.
"The development of the lab is to share our resources with the goal of improved performance of our Division I athletes and to provide research opportunities for our colleagues and their students)within the School of Arts & Sciences," she said.
As the programs are growing, due to the increased demand for professionals in the fields of allied health, there was a need to support the students' experience in the classroom with actual utensils that they would be utilizing in graduate school and in their careers, Watson said.
They will gain enhanced understanding of the topics discussed in lecture each week, she said, but will also be provided with the knowledge (textbook and practical) to stand out in the competitive graduate school pools for physical therapy, exercise physiology and occupational therapy.
An open house will be scheduled as soon as the lab equipment has been purchased and installed.
About the University: The nation's first Franciscan university, St. Bonaventure University cultivates graduates who are confident and creative communicators, collaborative leaders and team members, and innovative problem solvers who are respectful of themselves, others, and the diverse world around them. We are establishing pathways to internships, graduate schools and careers in the context of our renowned liberal arts tradition. Our students are becoming extraordinary.

How the C++ Compiler Decides to Move Objects
std::move does, although not necessarily how it does it.
Two weeks ago, I discussed rvalue references. I noted that, as its name suggests, an rvalue reference is a reference that is bound to an rvalue. More specifically, an rvalue reference can be bound only to an rvalue:
int n = 3; int& r1 = 3; // Error, 3 is an rvalue int& r2 = n; // OK int&& r3 = 3; // OK int&& r4 = n; // Error, n is an lvalue
If we add
const to the equation, both a plain reference and an rvalue reference can bind to an rvalue:
const int&& r5 = 3; // OK
However this binding involves adding a
const to the type of
3. This addition turns out to be important for the following subtle reason:
void foo(const int&); void foo(int&&);
Suppose we overload a function to accept a plain reference to
const in one version and an rvalue reference in the other. Then whenever we call
foo with an lvalue, we will get
foo(const int&); whenever we call
foo with an rvalue, we will get
foo(int&&). The
const is necessary for the plain reference because otherwise we would not be able to give
foo a
const int lvalue as its argument.
Inside the body of
foo(const int&), its parameter is a reference to
const. As usual, the argument is not copied, and the function itself cannot change the parameter's value because the parameter is
const. The interesting part is what happens inside the body of
Because an rvalue reference is just another kind of reference, the parameter of
foo(int&&) is a reference. This reference is not a reference to
const. In other words, the function is permitted to change its parameter's value, even though this value is an rvalue. For example:
void foo(int&& n) { ++n; }
This function is permitted to increment
n because
n is a reference. It is permitted to do so even though we can call
3 is an rvalue, so
n gets bound to
3 without
3 being copied. Nevertheless, the function is permitted to change the value of
n. Does doing so change the value of
3? The answer is that we can't tell, because there is no way of inspecting the value of
3 later on to discover whether it changed!
Now let's see how to apply this technique to defining a constructor:
class Thing { public: // … Thing(const Thing& t) { /* … */ } Thing(Thing&& t) { /* … */ } // … };
We have defined a class
Thing with two overloaded constructors. The first of them takes a reference to
const Thing. Inside the body of this constructor,
t refers directly to the object from which we want to construct our new
Thing. As ever, we can use the contents of this object, but we cannot change those contents.
In the second constructor,
t also refers to an object from which we are to construct a
Thing. In this constructor, however, that object is known to be an rvalue — which means that we can change the contents of
t without worrying about clobbering important data.
When we overload constructors in this way, we generally refer to the first one as the copy constructor and the second as the move constructor. Similarly, we can have copy-assignment and move-assignment operators as well:
class Thing { public: // … Thing& operator=(const Thing& t) { /* … */ } Thing& operator=(Thing&& t) { /* … */ } // … };
For both constructors and assignment operators, the copy version is required to leave the original alone; the move version is permitted to destroy the original's value so long as the original object is left in a state that allows it to be safely destroyed.
Having seen this technique, you should now be able to figure out what
std::move does, although not necessarily how it does it. Try to do so before we discuss it in detail next week.

NFL Football 2013: 5 Things We Learned From Week 7
Peyton Manning had a bittersweet homecoming in Indianapolis, and injuries to several key players could reshape the playoff picture. Here's what we learned in Week 7 of the 2013 NFL season:
You Can't Push Your Teammate into a Pile
When kicker Nick Folk missed a 56-yard field goal, it appeared that the New England Patriots (5-2) had kept the Jets (4-3) off the scoreboard on New York's first possession of overtime. However, officials called a new-for-2013 penalty on New England's Chris Jones for pushing his teammate into a pile — the first time the 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct foul had ever been called in an NFL game. The infraction gave the Jets a new set of downs and set up Folk's game-winning 42-yard effort. There was plenty of swearing after the 30-27 New York win. Most of the profanity was by Patriots' fans directed at Jones and/or the refs, but Jets' head coach Rex Ryan was equally pumped up about the victory.
Calvin Johnson Can't Block Kicks
Lions' wide receiver Calvin Johnson caught nine passes for 155 yards and two scores against Cincinnati (5-2) on Sunday, but no catch was more impressive than the 50-yard touchdown grab he made over three Bengals' defenders on Matt Stafford's heave into the end zone at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Despite Johnson's game-tying score, Detroit (4-3) lost, 27-24, when Mike Nugent kicked a 54-yard field goal on the game's final play. Maybe Lions' coach Jim Schwartz can send Johnson in on special teams next game. His vertical leap could only help.
The Cowboys Solved the Eagles' QB Controversy
With Nick Foles making his second straight start in place of injured Michael Vick — and the Eagles riding a two-game win streak — a quarterback conundrum was looming for Philadelphia (3-4). Not anymore. Even without DeMarcus Ware, Dallas (4-3) dominated Foles and the Eagles' weapon-rich offense, 17-3, on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field. Foles had a dreadful game before leaving with an undisclosed head injury at the end of the third quarter. Rookie Matt Barkley came on to throw three interceptions in the fourth quarter. Regardless of Foles' health, Vick should remain the Eagles' starter if he's healthy. Barkley, unfortunately, can't return to USC, where he is sorely missed.
The Broncos Have a Legend, But the Colts Have Luck
For more than three quarters, Indianapolis (5-2) dominated Denver (6-1) and former Colts' quarterback Peyton Manning. Thanks to three first-half touchdown passes by Manning's replacement, Andrew Luck, Indy rolled to a 33-14 lead late in the third quarter. That's when Manning started to bring the Broncos back, closing to within 36-30 with 8:44 to play. Had it not been for a goal-line fumble by Ronnie Hillman with 3:03 left, Denver could have beaten the Colts in 'The House That Peyton Built.' It's clear to most football fans after Indy's 39-33 win that Andrew Luck is the new lease-holder.
Injuries May Reshape Divisional Races
Three starting quarterbacks could not finish their respective games on Sunday due to injuries they suffered: Chicago's Jay Cutler (groin), St. Louis' Sam Bradford (knee) and Philadelphia's Nick Foles (head) could all be lost for several weeks. While the Bears, Rams and Eagles aren't top-tier teams, each was still in position to make a playoff run prior to Week 7. That could change.
Additionally, Texans' linebacker Brian Cushing reportedly tore his left LCL and broke his leg when Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles' helmet impacted on his knee. Also, Houston running back Arian Foster left with a hamstring injury; the Bengals lost cornerback Leon Hall for the season with a torn right Achilles; Packers' tight end Jermichael Finley was stretchered off with a neck injury; Tampa Bay running back Doug Martin didn't finish his team's game against the Falcons due to a shoulder injury and Colts' WR Reggie Wayne left the Sunday night game with a sprained knee. The Bucs and Texans might not be playoff-level teams, but all of the injured players are key to their teams' competitiveness in the second half of the 2013 season.

Between Hamburg, Lübeck and the former border between East and West Germany lies the Lauenburg Lakes Nature Park, with its deep forests, countless lakes, marshland and numerous cultural monuments.
In south-east Schleswig-Holstein man and nature coexist in harmony. In this hilly, glacier-formed landscape in the former Duchy of Lauenburg, flora and fauna thrive undisturbed on the former East German border. With over 40 lakes of all sizes, the area between Lübeck and Lauenburg/Elbe is a treasure trove of nature. In the north, 26 per cent of the area is covered by forest. At the same time, this area of countryside around Hamburg contains countless monuments and artistic and historical jewels.
The largest lakes in the 474 square metre reserve, Lake Ratzeburg and Lake Schaalsee, are a leisure and water sports destination and a habitat for indigenous wildlife such as cranes, white-tailed eagles and other endangered flora and fauna. The park is also a major European stopover for migratory birds.
With its many trails for walkers, cyclists and horse riders, the region around Lauenburg on the Elbe-Lübeck Canal provides plenty of opportunities for relaxing and enjoying nature and the great outdoors. You can take a canoe or boat trip on the rivers or lakes, or try regional game and fish dishes in the farm cafés and country inns. The towns of Ratzeburg, Mölln and Büchen offer a historical perspective from the Middle Ages, the Hanseatic League and the Old Salt Road right up to the division of East and West Germany. And there are museums showing the work of Ernst Barlach, A. Paul Weber and Till Eulenspiegel.

Lawmakers as well as officials from the retirement planning and securities industries are coming out against an online financial transaction tax bill that they say would hurt retirement savers, small businesses and investors.
The bill, the Marketplace Fairness Act (S. 743), introduced April 16 by Sens. Richard Durbin, D-Ill., Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., and Heidi Heitcamp, D-N.D., says it seeks to "restore states' sovereign rights to enforce state and local sales and use tax laws," among other purposes.
"This legislation does not create new or increase existing taxes," said Heitcamp, in a statement. "It simply would give states the right, if they want, to collect state and local sales and use taxes on Internet purchases that they are already owed," which she said amounts to about $23 billion annually. This money, Heitcamp said, would help states "balance their budgets without cutting services or increasing taxes."
President Barack Obama is a champion of the bill. The White House released a statement Monday that said the measure would "level the playing field for local small business retailers that are in competition every day with large out-of-state online companies."
But Brian Graff, executive director and CEO of the American Society of Pension Professionals and Actuaries (ASPPA), says the legislation, in its current form, would allow states to impose the tax on American workers' 401(k) contributions and other transactions within workers' accounts.
ASPPA estimates that more than 70 million workers could be affected since most transactions within these plans now take place over the Internet.
"A financial transaction tax on 401(k) contributions and accounts could significantly reduce workers savings over time, threatening their retirement security," Graff said. "A clear exception for such transactions is needed."
ASPPA said the legislation should first be referred to the Senate Finance Committee before being considered on the Senate floor as it's rife with "unintended consequences."
Indeed, Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont. (left), said Monday that the bill was "not ready for debate on the Senate floor"—which is supposed to occur this week—as it "has not been completely thought through" and "is full of unintended consequences that could seriously harm America's small businesses."
While supporters of the Marketplace Fairness Act claim the bill would "level the playing field between Main Street businesses and the out-of-state businesses by forcing both to collect sales taxes from customers," Baucus argued that the reality is that the legislation "is anything but fair to America's small businesses."
Instead of helping businesses expand and grow and hire more employees, Baucus said the bill "forces small businesses to hire expensive lawyers and accountants to deal with the burdensome paperwork and added complexity of tax rules and filings across multiple states." The acting president and CEO of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, Ken Bentsen, argued in a Monday statement that "the impact of the legislation on trade in services has not been adequately explored by Congress." He said the bill "could lead to unexpected costs being passed on to consumers of financial services," including sales taxes on services or state-level stock transaction taxes.
"We continue to oppose any kind of financial transaction tax as they are, essentially, a sales tax on investors," Bentsen said. "Such levies are simply passed onto ordinary retail investors and retirees, reducing the incentive to save, and distorting capital markets."
Before moving forward, Bentsen said that Congress should first hold hearings on the impact of the legislation "on the national market for trade in services, including financial services."

Jolt Awards: Coding Tools, February 06, 2013 The best IDEs and coding tools of the past year
Finalist: Embarcadero RAD Studio XE3
The just released RAD Studio XE3 is an unusual combination of technologies. In its simplest form, it's an IDE that supports projects written in Delphi, C++, and/or HTML5. It provides cross-platform development for Windows (32- and 64-bit), and Mac OS X (Mountain Lion and later), as well as iOS. It is the only IDE at present that enables C++ development on the major client-side operating systems. It delivers much of this portability by bundling its own high-quality UI libraries with the IDE. In addition to C++ and Delphi, RAD Studio XE3 delivers an HTML5 builder that enables quick development and testing of HTML5 apps and their counterparts on Windows 8 and mobile. The enterprise edition of the product provides deep database integration with the ability to recognize, connect to, manipulate, and even reverse-engineer records in Oracle, DB2, SQL Server, Sybase, MySQL, SQLite, and Embarcadero's own Interbase. It further extends these capabilities to data stores in the cloud, notably on Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure.
Finally, this product includes a set of features sorely missing in many other IDEs: extensive support for building and modeling applications including design tools and UML modeling.
Our only concern with the product is that the C++ Builder generates only native code on Windows platforms. It does not currently work with .NET, which is an important limitation. (In contrast, the Delphi side of the product does indeed integrate with .NET). However, if that is not a constraint for you, this new release is an impressive amount of high-quality software.
Andrew Binstock
Clarification: "Our concern that C++ Builder generates only native code on Windows" might be misunderstood. C++ Builder can generate binaries for Mac OS X as well. But for Windows targets, it's native code only.

Printing money is not inflationary, say the inflation hawks at Rob Arnett's Research Affiliates.
But no, the Newport Beach-based firm is not suddenly going all wobbly on the Fed's quantitative easing policy.
Rather, a recently published research note by the firm's chief investment officer, Jason Hsu, explains the mechanisms by which loose monetary policy creates the conditions for inflation, paving the way for an inflationary future.
Titled "From QE to Queasy: Fiscal Policy and the Risk of Inflation," the research note says that the now-dominant view of economists is that inflation is a fiscal phenomenon rather than a monetary issue. In other words, quantitative easing's primary effect is not inflationary; indeed, there has been no "material inflation" yet, despite QE-financed spending.
But the policy will lead to inflation in the following way, Hsu explains:
"When a government can issue substantial debt at a zero interest rate—which is what QE or printing money accomplishes—it will spend more recklessly than if it had to roll over the debt at double-digit interest rates."
In other words, interest rates impose fiscal discipline. Our current low rates remove an important market signal that would work to keep public spending in check.
Hsu continues:
"Bond investors are the vigilantes who ensure that fiscally conservative politicians are not brushed aside by electorates and by populist political leaders, who are all too willing to finance today's welfare with tomorrow's liabilities. Once that market control mechanism is lost, the public sector will slide down the slippery slope of excess spending, crowd the private sector out, and cause the economy to become ever less productive."
No vigilantes, no vigilance:
"If not for the debt ceiling, which acts as the last control against unsustainable deficit spending in the United States, the Fed would enable unbounded U.S. debt issuance by serving as the lone eager Treasury buyer at negative real interest rates."
So what exactly is the problem with unchecked government spending? Hsu explains that the government is not good at producing goods and services that consumers want, but it is good at creating nominal wealth "by paying people for make-work." This brings us to the classic definition of inflation: "too much nominal wealth chasing too few goods."
As the public sector expands, productivity in the private sector shrinks ("crowding out" is the term used in economics). Hsu employs an extreme example to illustrate the point: it is widely agreed that war causes inflation. How so?
"War is the state crowding out the private sector to produce weapons and death, neither of which are [sic] highly desired by the consumers." To finance the war, the government issues massive debt, creating nominal wealth; but people fighting wars are not producing goods and services in the private economy, so the economy is less productive and the result is nominal wealth chasing too few goods, i.e. inflation. Looking at the U.S. economic scene today, Hsu predicts that America's future will look far more like Southern Europe than Japan. Massive government spending has been a factor in each, yet the Japanese economy, alone, has remained productive.
Why? "Japanese households have saved religiously for retirement, and loaned at home and abroad to governments and corporations. In other words, they completely undid the increase in public spending with aggressive private-sector belt-tightening," Hsu writes.
The Japanese enjoy a trade surplus of 60% of GDP, compared with the average southern European country's large trade deficit and net foreign debt of 80%.
The Research Affiliates chief investment officer pessimistically concludes:
"Culturally more like the Europeans than the Japanese, U.S. households are likely to save insufficiently to buffer the massive increase in governmental debt; rather, as the government expands and spends more, so too will the number of public sector employees and beneficiaries expand; and so too will their expenditures increase. At the same time, the private sector will produce less—this is before we even attempt to adjust for the additional decline in labor productivity due to the aging U.S. demographics."

Developer Reading List: The Must-Have Books for JavaScript, February 12, 2013 The best books for learning the basics, becoming expert, and and writing complete apps in JavaScript
JavaScript and Windows 8
Windows 8 Apps with HTML5 and JavaScript Unleashed, by Stephen Walter
As you surely know from the substantial coverage of Windows 8, if you can write JavaScript and have some practice with HTML5's new features, you can write a Win8 app. This short, handy guide is an excellent tutorial on how to do so. It assumes you know JavaScript and HTML5 and starts from there. It begins by creating and packaging the app, then shows you how to manage various elements of the app's construction using templates, built-in resources (including the most common controls), and techniques for handling local storage access. An additional section discusses the Live SDK, which is how you connect to back-end services for tasks such as authentication or simply moving files to and from Microsoft SkyDrive.
Unlike any of the other books discussed here, this volume has color throughout: The code uses color syntax, and numerous full-color illustrations show how the controls work and exactly what the included code snippets do. In addition, all instructions are very clear and straightforward.
Building Windows 8 Apps with JavaScript, by Chris Sells and Brandon Satrom
A slightly wider ranged and more advanced version of the previous book. In addition to the user-facing stuff (tiles, touches, animation, etc.), it covers background tasks, concurrency and asynchrony, and importantly tasks like getting the app into the store and, should you wish, how to run ads on the app. A good, hands-on guide to using JavaScript as an enabling technology for mobile apps on Windows 8.

Fidelity Institutional has launched a mobile check deposit technology that RIAs, broker-dealers and family office professionals can use on the go, the financial services firm announced Tuesday.
Using Fidelity's mobile check deposit technology, advisors can take a picture of a check using the camera on a smartphone or tablet and securely deposit the funds directly into their clients' brokerage accounts.
The application's launch comes as advisors increasingly use mobile devices outside of the office. Almost 77% of advisors use at least one mobile device for business purposes, according to research and consulting firm Kasina's "e-Business Compass." In addition, there have been more than 22,000 downloads of Fidelity Institutional's mobile applications, representing 42% of users on Fidelity's clearing and custody platforms.
The new app underscores Fidelity's commitment to supporting the "anywhere advisor" with the right tools, according to Edward O'Brien, senior vice president and head of platform technology for Fidelity Institutional.
"Mobile check deposit, a wildly popular consumer app, was a given to adapt for our 'anywhere advisors' and family office professionals, allowing them to spend less time processing checks and more time engaging with their clients," O'Brien said in a statement.
With the new app, Fidelity expects to see improved efficiencies and reduced expenses associated with the current process required to ship checks overnight. Mobile check deposit extends to financial advisors who custody with Fidelity Institutional Wealth Services; broker-dealers clearing with National Financial, a Fidelity Investments company; and family office clients of Fidelity Family Office Services. Home office review and approval is required for mobile deposits from National Financial clients.
Fidelity Investments' early investment in mobile technologies helped Fidelity Institutional adapt the firm's mobile check deposit for individual investors to the broker-dealer, advisor and family office audiences. Fidelity individual investors have widely embraced mobile check deposit since it was first introduced in 2011, depositing nearly $2.5 million a day using the mobile app, according to company data.
Fidelity Institutional's sign-up for the phased roll-out of mobile and remote check deposit includes a qualification and enrollment process.
