A few months ago I put out an invitation for a sculptor to bring to life a robot named Stanley.
I designed Stanley nearly 30 years ago, but thought that maybe this was his moment to be born in 3D.
The occasion was a robot event called "Robot Nation" coming up this Saturday at the Norman Rockwell Museum.
Sculptor Lawrence Elig from Rhode Island rose to the challenge. Here is | the rough sculpt leading to the final sculpt.
And here’s the sculptor at work. Stanley is a pot-bellied steamerbot constructed from spare junk thrown behind an intergalactic restaurant. He has worked odd jobs at spaceport fast food joints. He’s brave and loyal, but he has a tendency to drink all the frier oil and sing off-key.
Larry took the rough sculpt apart so that he could do a layup in the moldboard.
Then he poured in the rubber mold material.
Here’s what the cold cast bronze process looks like for Stanley | [

After years of delivering deep cuts, lawmakers this session are discussing ways to give Arizona State Parks some more money and bring back a lottery-funded grant program the agency administered.
Sandy Bahr, director of the Sierra Club’s Grand Canyon Chapter, said there seems to be a core group of representatives who are concerned about funding state parks properly.
“It is | a pleasure to come to the Legislature this year and see several bills that are supporting state parks instead of the opposite,” Bahr told a House committee recently.
HB 2621, introduced by Rep. Juan Carlos Escamilla, D-San Luis, would establish a voluntary fee that owners could pay when registering vehicles. The House Agriculture and Water Committee unanimously approved the bill Feb. 19.
“Our state parks are a lot of times our economic tool for small, rural areas,” said Escamilla, whose district includes two state parks.

I am developing two web applications where one is a server app and the other is a client app, both are using Spring Security. My use case is such that after a user logs into the server app, the user can then access the client app from links within the server app. Since the user should not have to log in again when they click on these links (part of my requirements), I decided to use a strategy similar to Single SignOn in order to forward their authentication information from the server app to the client app.

General Details Afghanistan Campaign Plan
By Jim Garamone
American Forces Press Service
CAMP EGGERS, Afghanistan, June 6, 2011 The population centers of Afghanistan’s Helmand and Kandahar provinces and Spin Bolduk on the Pakistan border constitute key areas in the fight against the Taliban this year, the commander of International Security Assistance Force Joint Command said here today.
Army Lt. Gen. David M. Rodriguez told reporters traveling with Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates that the Taliban and its terrorist allies are trying to return to the area, which coalition and Afghan troops wrested from them over the past year.
“We’ve been able to degrade and attrit their leaders and their command and control, which is obviously | critical to what they are doing,” the general said. Over the past year, he added, coalition and Afghan forces also have degraded Taliban support bases.

ACP Magazines has delivered another significant readership increase, with the groups market share rising to 46.7 percent, according to the latest Roy Morgan Readership figures (Roy Morgan Single Source, April 2007 – March 2008). And this growth is mirrored in the circulation figures to be released at midnight tonight.
The rise in readership as a whole reflects the strong performances by titles in three areas.
OK! increases a weekly wonder
OK! is still Australia’s fastest-growing weekly title, and has seen significant readership increases over the last 12 months:
- 408,000 readers per issue – an increase of 28.7 percent
- OK!’s lead over Famous has risen from 25,000 readers each week to 93,000
Andrew Cowell, publisher, said: In this competitive weekly market, achieving a significant readership increase of 28.7 percent is an outstanding feat – and is testament to both the unswerving quality of the title and the team who produce it.
The successful team behind OK! have been rewarded with two MPA Award nominations. Kim Wilson | has been nominated for the Editor of the Year award and the title has been short-listed for a General Excellence award.
National advertising sales director, Ann-Maree Mulders said: OK! remains the hot title in the celebrity market, posting our fourth consecutive readership increase.

Half Way Point

Today was a productive day in that I managed to do some errands I really hate to do (hand washing, eurgh! hoovering, eurgh!) and I wrote 2,500 words in one nice easy session. I had a day off from writing yesterday partly because Sunday was a disastrous day for the book.

This Season: Olivia Weinberg looks forward to Salvador Dalí in Paris, the highlight of the winter exhibitions...
From INTELLIGENT LIFE magazine, November/December 2012
The Surrealists were wacky but Dalí was wackier. His paintings of wobbly clocks, oversized limbs, waiflike figures—half human, half chest of drawers—reveal less than a snippet of his imagination. "My painting is like an iceberg," he once said, "which shows only a tenth of its volume." Under the ice lurks an even more surreal Mr Dalí, and a new exhibition at the Pompidou Centre in Paris promises to dig deep.
A flam | boyant exhibitionist, with a haughty expression, walking stick and freshly waxed moustache, Salvador Dalí carried with him an air of controversy.

Lent 3: 11 March John 2:13-22
According to the first three gospels this incident played a major role in the events leading up to Jesusí execution. In the fourth gospel it is portrayed as taking place three years earlier. Yet it is also seen as being a cause for Jesusí death. We see this in the citation of Psalm 69:10, ĎZeal for your house will consume me.í The choice of the future tense rather than the past of the original underlines this. Elsewhere John seems to have transferred traditions which pertained to Jesusí last days back into his ministry. The Jewish trial, for instance, takes place throughout the ministry! So the place of the temple clearing near the beginning of Jesusí ministry is probably a deliberate rearrangement.
Whichever gospel we follow, we find that this action is highly controversial | . In the case of the fourth gospel we now have two parts to the account: the event itself (2:14-17) and the controversy about it (2:18-22). The latter section includes Jesusí prediction that the temple will be destroyed and be rebuilt in three days. It also begins with the Jews questioning Jesusí right to act the way he did. Both elements echo Markís story | [

For better or for worse, Kristen Wiig spends much of her time hiding behind strange wigs, deformed hands, oversized foreheads, heinous vests and other less-than-flattering physical features. But strip away all the "Saturday Night Live" props and Wiig is beautiful -- and totally sexy.

Cutler needs his diaper changed every morning. I guess his bowels are on a schedule, 9 times out of 10 he’s dropped a bomb in the morning.

Tree and brush cutter attachment
Cut at any angle
"It's the only universal machine that's on the market that can cut vertically, horizontally, or any angle in between," Gaudes says. "You can use it to cut tree lines, brush underneath fence lines, ditches, and around ponds."
Some people also use it to trim vineyards and cut trees away from power lines. Since you attach the unit to a bucket, most of the time anything you cut up high will tumble into the bucket, so you don't have to come back around to clear branches on the ground.
The unit is 36 inches long and has two sets of sickles. You can cut branches up to 1 1/2 inches in diameter. To operate it, hook it up to the hydraulics port on the bucket or to your machine's auxiliary hydraulic port.
You can order | the attachment direct from the manufacturer. It costs about $1,300, plus shipping.

I write about leadership myths, and bust them one-by–one.
Have you ever worked for a boss who always said no? If you have, my first guess is it was a frustrating experience. My second guess is you don’t hold said boss in high regard as a leader. I’ve always been amazed at the number of well known axioms espousing the benefits of learning to use the word “no” with greater frequency. In fact, there are some very bright people who believe you simply cannot become a good leader without developing a mastery for using the word no - I couldn’t disagree more. I’ve never been a big fan of telling people no, but I’m a huge proponent of the advantages of helping people learn how to get to a yes. Smart leadership creates an environment where yes is not viewed as a weakness, but as an opportunity | .
While inherently obvious, it should not go unnoticed that the use of the word no is 100% negative. The word no ends discussions, stifles creativity, kills innovation, impedes learning, and gates initiative. Put simply, the word no advances nothing, grows nothing, builds nothing and incentivizes nothing. No is not all it’s cracked-up to be. Smart leaders | [

UK faculty will have an opportunity to attend two open forums this week prior to a second round of University budget cuts.

Texas Songbook by Gary Nicholson
Of all the hits that Gary Nicholson has put his name on since the early 1980s, it’s “One More Last Chance,” which Vince Gill co-wrote and memorably recorded, that typifies his way with a song. Often, he lets loose with lyrics that are sly and sometimes wry, rolling atop rollicking rhythms that can make a | drummer’s day.
Texas Songbook revisits songs others have sung (notably “Fallin’ & Flyin’” from the Crazy Heart soundtrack), but mainly, the disc is an earthy, often exhilarating ride across sprawling Texas-music terrain. Gary, a sturdy but limited singer, enlists a gang of Lone-Star-Staters including Joe Ely and Asleep at the Wheel’s | [

The Plymouth Road Runner was produced from 1968 – 1980. The Road Runner, which was a B-Body Mopar, was based on the same platform as the Belvedere, Satellite, and GTX.
It cost Plymouth $50,000 for the rights to use the Road Runner name and other bells and whistles ( beep – beep horn ). Plymouth’s main goal in producing the Road Runner was to be able to run 13s at the race track and still be able to sell the car for under $4,000.
1968 Road Runner
In 1968 the 383 was the standard engine, which was only upgradable to the 426 HEMI. Plymouth projected to sell only | 2,500 Road Runners, so they limited the options available. In the end though they actually sold around 45,000.
1969 Road Runner
In response the popularity of the Road Runner, they decided to add quite a few more options in 1969. First, they added the convertible as an option. Next they expanded the choices for engines. They add the 440 – 4 Barrel, and the 440 – 6 Barrel. Finally they changed the Road | [

Now you might say I no longer drag race because I live in Brooklyn and having a car is unnecessary but I say it's because I didn't want to die like this. I love drag racing.
There were many times when I was at a red light, next to some tiny-d mid-life crisis Porsche-driver and my Corolla would straight up BURN them. They knew we were racing; I gave them the revving engine signal, they just couldn't hang.
John Bartunek of East Pearl, NY had the fastest qualifying time of 6.123 but his ride ended in near-disaster when he had some tire-shaking that led to his '68 Camaro flying into the air and ultimately coming to rest burning against the guard rail.
"It was a nice, clean run. It was pretty much business as usual," Bartunkek said after he emerged unharmed from the car. "Maybe one of our 'chutes got under the wheelie bar | ." After that, he said, it was "just smoke and fire. You just hang on and hope it stops soon," Bartunek said, "But Jerry Haas builds an awesome car. We'll be back."

I am sitting in the Sarah and Chaim Neuberger Holocaust Education Centre at the Lipa Green building in Toronto, with Ve'ahavta Street Academy (VSA) students. VSA is a school for the homeless and near homeless. It is operated by Ve'ahavta, the Canadian Jewish Humanitarian and Relief Committee.
I'm watching the students as Mike, our host, explains the history of the Second World War and the Holocaust. And I'm considering as I do, the questions VSA students, survivors of the street, might be asking as they listen to a presentation on the disenfranchisement of my people. What are addicts and former addicts thinking when Mike sums up his presentation saying, "This isn't a very happy story"?
I've just had a short talk with a student, a fellow who spent 17 years in American prisons including Folsum State Prison and San Quentin. He calls Gherda Frieberg, a survivor and our speaker today, "noble."

I need to compute the determinant of a matrix that is calculated as $B \circ A$, with $B$ and $A$ being square matrices and $\circ$ representing their Hadamard product.
One way of doing this is through the eigenvalues of $B \circ A$, since a determinant is equal to the product | of eigenvalues. This calculation is part of a simulation, where $A$ remains constant and $B$ changes during the simulation. Since $A$ does not change, its eigenvalues will not change, but $B$'s eigenvalues will.

STANFORD, Calif. (AP) -- Chiney Ogwumike has been leading Stanford all season. Coach Tara VanDerveer wanted to see others contribute.
"Coach pulled me aside just before the game and said, 'I have confidence in you,'" Bonnie Samuelson explained after No. 4 Stanford routed Arizona State 69-45 Sunday. "I may not make every shot but that was nice to hear. I was ready to shoot every time I caught the ball."
Samuelson scored a career-high 19 points, and Ogwumike scored 26 points and had 14 rebounds.
"We have been working hard in practice to step it up," Samuelson said. "I think we have been challenged and a lot of us are stepping up."
Samuelson reached double figures in points for the third time this season and second time in three games as the Cardinal played without starting guard Toni Kokenis for a second straight game.
"Bonnie gave us great minutes," VanDerveer said. "It's especially challenging without Toni, who gives us that extra ball handler and who can score. We took care of the ball better than we did against Arizona."
Joslyn Tinkle added 13 points and | 11 rebounds for the Cardinal (22-2, 11-1 Pac-12), who extended their winning streak to eight with their 11th victory in 12 games. Stanford has beaten Arizona State 14 consecutive times.

Humility is a dangerous virtue to value—at least it’s dangerous to talk about it. As soon as you do, you realize how much you have to grow in that area and it’s out there for all to see! But it’s still important to being a generous mind and hence I write this post in spite of my reservations.
If you want to hear from God, it’s important to be humble. Psalm 25:9 says, “He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.” (NIV) How I need to know what is right and understand his way! Without understanding, life can seem like a muddled mess.
But it’s more than just for my personal benefit. When I am humble and learn from God, I can share those lessons with others. Words are such a powerful force. I remember times in my life when I did not have the resources to reach out to God on my own, but someone came along and spoke truth into my life. The words were healing to me—exactly what I needed to hear.
Matthew 11:25-26 (NIV) says, “At that time Jesus said, ‘I praise you | , Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.’”

An under-recognized pioneer of the lo-fi revolution, Smog was essentially the alias of one Bill Callahan, an enigmatic singer/songwriter whose odd, fractured music neatly epitomized the tenets and excesses of the home-recording boom.

Everyone who invests in the stock market wants to be successful. You want to end up with more money than you had when you started, but there are many roads you can take in pursuit of long-term wealth. Some roads will lead to success; others will lead to failure. To know the kind of road on which you are traveling, you need to be able to measure your success along the way. However, before you can measure your success, you need to define what constitutes "success." In this article I discuss two definitions of investing success that have important implications for how individual investors think about and participate in the stock market.
Beating the Market
If you were to survey a wide range of individual investors, financial advisors, institutional investors, hedge fund managers, and the mainstream financial media, I think a common definition of investing success would be "beating the market." That is, having your portfolio achieve a total return that is better than that of a market index such as the S&P 500 (SPY). Beating the market is something that many people aspire to do, but I question whether it is a sensible and psychologically healthy way of defining investing success. Two examples | will serve to highlight some problematic issues with this definition.
First, imagine that the S&P 500 index gained 20% in a year but your portfolio's total return was only 10%. You did not beat the market, but does that really count as a failure? Your portfolio is worth more | [

ARM, which dominates the market for processors that go into smartphones and tablets, has suddenly found itself with some serious competition from Intel. While Intel has had a weak presence in the smartphone processor space for quite some time, the world’s biggest PC chipmaker has decided that ARM shouldn’t have all the pie to itself.
Intel has just announced its entry into smartphone market with the Lenovo K800. The first Intel powered smartphone will initially launch in China.
The Lenovo smartphone will be powered by Intel’s Medfield-class Atom Z2460 processor. Intel’s chips are notorious for sucking a lot of power in small form factors like smartphones and tablets, which is the main reason behind Apple going with ARM technology and not Intel’s in | the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. While there is nothing concrete yet, there are talks about Apple moving to Intel’s architecture for the iPhone and iPad. These are just unconfirmed talks, though. Intel might have to prove its success outside of Apple’s iOS platform first before Apple takes seriously consideres Intel’s new system-on-chip Medfield design.

AT&T is making an attempt to quietly settle with the iPhone user who was recently awarded $850 in a lawsuit over AT&T's data-throttling practices, but the user in question doesn't want any part of it. Instead, he's committed to fighting AT&T and hopes other subscribers follow | his example by taking AT&T to court over the throttling of supposed "unlimited" data plans, and has taken his cause to a website called PublikDemand to get others involved.
Matthew Spaccarelli won an $850 judgement against AT&T in a California small-claims court in late February when the court found that it wasn't fair for AT&T to slow down data speeds under his iPhone's unlimited data plan. Spaccarelli had argued | [

The implementation of stop-and-frisk in certain New York City hotspots? Or the almost complete lack of guns being discovered in those same spots?
In other words, did more stop-and-fr | isks lead to fewer guns on the streets in the police-inundated areas that have the highest rate of this dubious law enforcement tactic or were there not as many guns in those areas as the police originally speculated?
Who's to say?
Oh, right. The NYPD should certainly say something. Mayor Bloomberg should chime in too.

At the recent Device Design Day (D3) event organised by Kicker Studios Wendy Ju shared her work on implicit interactions. You can see the lightweight slides for her presentation, or read her paper below.
“Implicit interactions enable communication without using explicit input or output. One way that an interaction can be implicit is if the exchange occurs outside the attentional foreground of the user. This occurs in traditional computing-when the computer auto-saves your files, or filters your spam e-mail, for instance-as well | as in ubiquitous computing interaction. The other way that an interaction can be made implicit is if the exchange is initiated by the computer system rather than by the user-if the computer alerts you to new mail, or when it displays a screensaver. (It may seem counter- intuitive that something that grabs your attention could be implicit, but it is important to remember that the interaction is based on an implied demand for information or action, not an explicit one.)”

New Delhi: Government sources have hit back at Pakistan Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani's statements about India giving Pakistan solid evidence on Lashkar-e-Toiba founder and alleged 26/11 mastermind Hafiz Saeed.
Government sources have told CNN-IBN that concrete evidence against Hafiz Saeed has already been given to Pakistan. Sources say the evidence includes Ajmal Kasab's statement that Hafiz Saeed was present during the selection and training of terrorists behind the 26/11 attack.
Sources also point out that David Coleman Headley's statements about Hafiz Saeed saying the Mumbai mission was critical have also been sent out.
Sources in the government said that it was now time for Pakistan to act on the evidence provided.
This came after Gilani reacted to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's remarks to Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari in Delhi on Sunday, linking progress in bilateral talks to action against the alleged 26/11 mastermind.
Gilani had said, "We are serious on the issue of Saeed but the question is how to proceed against him without evidence. Courts here are | independent and we need substantial evidence against him."
He said that former premier Nawaz Sharif too had asked him about the government's stance on the issue of Saeed. Saeed, the founder of the Lashkar-e-Toiba, has been in focus after the US offered a $ 10 million bounty for him last week | [

Brandon Routh and Courtney Ford have welcomed their first child into the world.
The Superman Returns actor and his partner - who have been married since November 2007 - became parents to a boy, Leo James Routh, yesterday.
And Brandon can't stop looking at his newborn son, who weighs 8 lbs.
"We're in awe & we can't take our eyes off him," he told PEOPLE magazine.
The couple revealed in March that Courtney was expecting, and they found it hard to keep her pregnancy a secret after everyone on the set of his new series Partners kept asking him about it.
"Everyone on set keeps asking, 'Do you have kids?' And I've had to say, 'Well, not yet'. It's the truth. The baby hasn't been born yet," he said at the time.
Courtney - who is known for her roles on True Blood and Parenthood - admitted she had used a number of excuses, such as food poisoning and flu, but they only worked "for | so long".
"It started getting difficult to hide what was happening," she added.

Groton - The termination hearing for Superintendent of Schools Paul Kadri is taking longer than expected.
Proceedings were slated for completion by Dec. 20, the last of four scheduled hearing dates, but testimony is not finished. Instead, Jan. 7 and Jan. 15 have been reserved as hearing dates, though it is unclear whether both will be needed.
Kadri has not run the school district since May, shortly after allegations surfaced that he mistreated employees and the Board of Education placed him on paid leave.
An investigation commissioned by the board led to interviews with more than a dozen current and former employees. The investigation revealed more claims of intimidating, abusive and hostile treatment by Kadri, mostly | toward female school district employees. Kadri has denied the allegations.
Acting on the report, the school board notified Kadri in September that it would consider his termination, citing "unprofessional and unethical behavior," among the reasons.

Today, I am going to take a look at inverter generators and what they offer over their standard generator cousins.
The inverter generator is becoming more and more popular over its conventional counterpart.
Why Are Inverter Generators Better Than Others
The main advantage that inverter generators have over conventional generators is that the latter have to run at full speed when they are on whether or not the output they produce is being used.
On the other hand, the inverter generator is clever enough to reduce its running speed to match the output required. This means it will run much quieter and much more efficiently than any conventional generator.
Inverter generator manufacturers have realised that noise reduction is one of the top priorities for the majority of their customers. So they have taken extra steps to accomplish this by the use of advanced sound reduction enc | losures and good mufflers.
The power supplied by inverter generators is usually a lot cleaner than that supplied by other types of generators. It is this that makes them especially suitable to power items with microchips in them such as laptops or computers.

The geniuses at Wonkette have been reading the leaked memoir from one of Palin's former aides, and discovered a mistakenly unredacted private e-mail for Palin in the manuscript. They plugged the e-mail address into the Facebook machine, which awesomely associates Facebook accounts with e-mail addresses even when the addresses aren't public on the page, and—presto chango!—up comes a page for a "Lou Sarah" who is friends with a bunch of Wasilla folk and has an unhealthy obsession with Bristol Palin.
Here she is delivering Bristol a message of faith and inspiration after her devastating loss on that dancing show (click on the images to enlarge): "You are our winner! Thank you for remembering the Lord in your nice remarks!"
Earlier, "Lou Sarah" encouraged Bristol to "dance for everyone who...faces challenges" and resigns in the face of those | challenges:
Congratulations! Dance with PASSION, dance for TRIPP! Have a blast this week, we can't wait for Monday night when your light can shine! Dance for everyone who struggles and faces challenges. Dance for us. We love you.

Biopic explores the humble beginnings of one of fashion's most recognizable names
There's a moment at the end of Coco Before Chanel that's so unnecessary it's as if from another movie: a montage of earlier scenes that you have just watched, in a way, with Coco. Did director Anne Fontaine think you had forgotten what Coco went through before the last scene's fashion show of iconic wool suits, extraordinary long gowns, and gorgeous gold chains--or that Coco herself would have forgotten? C'est impossible.
This late montage is Fontaine's only misstep in this biopic, written by Fontaine and Camille Fontaine (no relation) from Edmonde Charles-Roux's book of the same title. It's a gorgeous movie layered with orchestral music and punctuated by lively French songs and enough picturesque shots to fill a year's worth of French | fashion magazines. The strong narrative is one that even the beauty of Audrey Tautou merely enhances, it's such a classic success story.

Lustre-ware was without doubt the most affordable form of decoration on all manner of crockery throughout most of the 19th century. Therefore there's a lot of it about and not too much of it marked. So....how do you tell who made what and when?
Start with the basics. Work on the premise that whatever you find will post-date circa 1805 (think yourself exrtremely lucky if you find an earlier piece) and pre-date roughly 1890ish when it became finally unfashionable. This is a decent rule of thumb though of course there are exceptions to the rule.
If you find a really nice, bright and | shiny example of, for example, a cup and saucer, don't dismiss as modern.
