Submitted: 07-29-2010 by pjb
Well, first to the good points:
1. At 8' this boat is easy to carry without the investment in a rooftop system. This is the shortest of the kayaks we own and I still often choose this one for a solo float even though we now have the rooftop system because of its very low transport hassle factor.
2. It is surprisingly quick and tracks better than one might expect for a short sit-on-top kayak.
3. Because of its short size it is very easy to maneuver.
4. Unless you are a larger person, you don't need to be too concerned about its stability. It may be small, but it's a rock.
5. Seat is comfortable (relatively).
Bad Points:
1. Unless you are fairly small and light (say 140 lbs. or less), you are likely to be sitting in some water during your entire float. This makes the boat mostly suitable for warm weather only.
2. Although I use it for floating and fishing, its short length makes paddling and carrying a rod a bit more difficult than it would be on a longer kayak. The same comment goes for changing bait and/or lure while floating.
3. The eyelets are cheap plastic making them vulnerable to breaking. One of the pull handles broke off fairly quickly without much strain. Metal eyelets would likely help this problem.
I certainly don't regret buying this kayak and have enjoyed using it because of its good points. I would most recommend it for a single person with a wagon, SUV, or crossover vehicle who doesn't want to invest in a rooftop system. I think it would also be good for a city dweller as it would store easily inside of an apartment and probably be able to be carried in many elevators. It would also be a very nice summer kayak for older children and teenagers who aren't too large or heavy.

# Product Review for Kayak
Submitted on 07-29-2010 by **pjb**
## Good Points
1. **Easy to carry:** At 8', this kayak eliminates the need for a rooftop transport system. Shorter than other kayaks in the owner's collection, but still chosen for solo use due to its low maintenance.
2. **Surprisingly quick tracking:** Better performance than expected for a short sit-on-top kayak.
3. **Easy to maneuver:** Ideal for short-distance navigation due to its compact size.
4. **Stable for smaller users:** Stable enough for most individuals (not recommended for larger users).
5. **Comfortable seat:** Relatively comfortable seat for recreational use.
## Bad Points
1. **Water exposure:** Larger users (over 140 lbs) risk sitting in water throughout the float, limiting its use to warm weather.
2. **Short length limitations:** Challenging for rod storage, bait/lure changes, and paddling compared to longer kayaks.
3. **Poor-quality eyelets:** Cheap plastic components (e.g., pull handles) prone to breaking under minimal strain; metal alternatives are recommended.
**Summary:** The reviewer does not regret the purchase and recommends this kayak for:
- Solo users with SUVs or vehicles that don’t require rooftop systems.
- Urban dwellers needing compact, apartment-storable equipment.
- Older children/teens of smaller/medium size for summer use.

# Kayak Product Review
**Submitted by:** pjb | **Date:** 07-29-2010
## Overview
This 8’ short sit-on-top kayak is highlighted for its portability and ease of use, though it has some limitations based on size and stability for larger individuals.
---
## Good Points
1. **Portability**:
- Easy to carry manually without the need for a rooftop transportation system.
- Ideal for solo use, even with a rooftop setup, due to low transport hassle.
2. **Performance**:
- Surprisingly quick and efficient tracking for a short sit-on-top model.
- Excellent maneuverability thanks to its compact size.
3. **Stability**:
- Stable for users under 140 lbs., described as “a rock” in terms of buoyancy.
4. **Comfort**:
- Relatively comfortable seat for short to medium floats.
---
## Bad Points
1. **Water Intrusion**:
- Users over 140 lbs. will likely sit in water continuously, limiting use to warm weather.
2. **Functionality Limitations**:
- Short length makes paddle storage, rod handling, and bait/lure adjustments less convenient.
3. **Durability Concerns**:
- Plastic eyelets and handles are prone to breaking. Upgrading to metal components is recommended.
---
## Recommendation
The reviewer highly recommends this kayak for:
- Individuals with compact SUVs, wagons, or crossover vehicles who avoid rooftop systems.
- City dwellers needing apartment-friendly, easily transportable storage.
- Older children and teenagers (lighweight/height) for summer paddling.
Despite its drawbacks, the reviewer emphasizes the value of it as a low-hassle, versatile summer kayak for specific use cases.

# Kayak Review
Submitted by **pjb** on 07-29-2010
## Good Points
1. **Portability**: At 8', this kayak is easy to carry without a rooftop rack system. Despite being the shortest in the reviewer's collection, they often choose this boat for solo floats due to minimal transportation hassle.
2. **Performance**: Surprisingly quick with better tracking than expected for a short sit-on-top kayak.
3. **Maneuverability**: Short size allows for easy maneuvering.
4. **Stability**: Stable for non-large users (e.g., those under 140 lbs.). Described as "a rock" despite its size.
5. **Comfort**: Seat is relatively comfortable for the category.
## Bad Points
1. **Water ingress**: For users over ~140 lbs., water intrusion is likely during use, limiting its value to warm-weather activities.
2. **Practical limitations**: Short length complicates paddling, rod carrying, and bait/lure changes compared to longer kayaks.
3. **Durability concerns**: Plastic eyelets are prone to breaking. The reviewer lost a pull handle handle easily; upgrading to metal components is recommended.
**Recommendation**: The reviewer does not regret the purchase and highlights ideal use cases:
- For single users with SUVs/vans who avoid rooftop systems.
- Urban dwellers needing compact storage (e.g., apartments with elevator access).
- Summer use for non-large adults and children/teens.

# Kayak Review: Short Sit-On-Top (8')
*Submitted by pjb on 07-29-2010*
---
## Key Advantages
1. **Ease of Transport**
At 8', this kayak is lightweight and portable, eliminating the need for a rooftop system. Ideal for solo use and small-vehicle owners (wagon/SUV/crossover).
2. **Performance**
Surprisingly quick with good tracking for a short sit-on-top model. Maintains stability even for smaller users, described as "a rock."
3. **Maneuverability**
Compact size allows for agile handling in water.
4. **Comfort**
Features a relatively comfortable seat (though not guaranteed for taller/heavier users).
---
## Key Limitations
1. **Water Intrusion**
For users over ~140 lbs, the boat's lack of watertight sealing becomes a significant issue, limiting year-round usability.
2. **Functionality Constraints**
Short length complicates:
- Rod storage and transport
- Bait/lure changes while floating
3. **Durability**
- Plastic eyelets are fragile; one pull handle broke quickly under minimal strain
- Suggested upgrade: Metal hardware for longevity
---
## Recommendations
> *"I certainly don’t regret the purchase..."*
This kayak is best suited for:
- Solo users with limited vehicle transport options
- Urban/compact storage needs (e.g., apartments or elevators)
- Small to average-sized adults or teens for summer-only use
Not recommended for: Larger individuals requiring dry storage or year-round paddling.

# Making the Band 3: Jason's Confrontation
While the girls are practicing, they get very annoyed by Jason interrupting them. Jason makes them do everything he tells them to. He also tells the girls that they are too fat and that they should go on a diet. His continuous critiques on the girls about their singing and dancing are starting to make them actually believe them. The girls try to explain their problems to Jason, but he's not listening at all.

Minister Jaro Essa
Minister Jaro Essa
Gender: Male
Species: Bajoran
Affiliation: Bajoran Provisional Government
Alliance for Global Unity
Occupation: Minister
Coup leader
Status: Active (2370)
Played by: Frank Langella
Jaro Essa was a male Bajoran who lived during the 24th century. A politician, he rose to the position of minister in the Bajoran Provisional Government, later becoming leader of the Alliance for Global Unity.
HistoryEdit
In 2370, Jaro became the leader of the Alliance for Global Unity that sought to remove the Federation from the Bajoran system. He attempted to bring down the Provisional Government and install himself as leader of Bajor.
Later that year, Jaro appointed Li Nalas to the post of Bajoran liaison officer on Deep Space 9 with the designation of navarch, following his return from Cardassia IV. He had Kira kidnapped when she came too close to discovering his plot. Jaro revealed to her that he was the leader of the Circle, and that he assigned Li Nalas to the station so the war hero wouldn't interfere with Jaro's coup.
He was buying weapons from the Kressari who were a front for the Cardassians who were trying to undermine the Bajoran government. He believed that if Bajor was heavily armed, it would not need anyone's protection. Bajor could order the Federation out. Jaro was assisted in his dealings by Vedek Winn Adami, General Krim and Colonel Day. His plan failed when Kira and Jadzia Dax revealed to the Bajoran Ministers that the Cardassians were secretly behind the arming of the Circle and provided evidence to prove it. (DS9: "The Homecoming", "The Circle", "The Siege")
Memorable quotesEdit
"What you did, Major, was declare war on Cardassia. Thankfully they declined the invitation."
"I'd do it again if it meant bringing Li Nalas home."
"Yes, I'm sure you would. And though officially I have to warn you that the next time you disobey orders will mean the end of your military career, as a private citizen I want to thank you for what you've done this day."
- Jaro Essa and Kira Nerys (DS9: "The Homecoming")
"Would you mind if I address the crowd? You can't expect a politician to give up an opportunity like this."
"You go right ahead."
"Thank you. Fellow Bajorans, I have only one thing to say to you, to ask you, really. Never forget this moment. Because I promise you one day your children and your grandchildren will ask you know what it was like the day Li Nalas returned to Bajor."
- Jaro Essa and Li Nalas (DS9: "The Homecoming")
""How can you betray your own government?"
"Major, I don't have to tell you. I've heard your opinion of this government. Government. They can't even agree it is a government, so they call it provisional. It's just another word for powerless. I won't allow the Bajoran people to be powerless any more. We have been doormats to the Cardassians and now the Federation. Any great power that happens by. We will not be that again. We are a people who brought art and architecture to countless planets. We don't deserve to be victims."
- Kira Nerys and Jaro Essa (DS9: "The Circle")
"Major Kira has long been an outspoken opponent of the provisional government, of reason, of progress and now finally, of me. I am honoured to be included, Major, but I have no intention of allowing you to disrupt the orderly transition of power with these wild charges."
- Jaro Essa, on being confronted with proof the Cardassians were supplying the Circle (DS9: "The Siege")
AppendicesEdit
AppearancesEdit
Background informationEdit
Jaro was played by actor Frank Langella.
The script for "The Circle" describes Jaro as, "the gifted politician, practiced at being ever-affable." [1]
Jaro Essa costume - It's a Wrap
Frank Langella's costume was sold off for $370.00
Langella's costume comprising an asymmetrical mauve jacket with zips and snaps on the right front and sparkle accents within the fabric on the left, in addition to matching pants featuring black elastic stirrups and suspenders, was sold off in the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay for $370.00. [2]
Langella chose to receive no on-screen credit for his appearance. As Director Winrich Kolbe explained, "He wanted to do the show. He did it for his children, because they loved the show. It was not done for money or exposure." (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion, p.78)
Indeed Kolbe had a lot of respect for Langella as an actor, recalling, "He scared the shit out of me. There's a mythology around him. He's a tremendous actor and he's got those dark brown eyes that seem to strip you bare of anything that you're wearing emotionally or literally. When he popped up on the first bit, and I know exactly what it was (it was the side entrance to the air lock that leads to the cargo bay), we started rehearsing, and I figured, 'This guy could be trouble', because there's something in him that tells you, 'Watch that guy. If you tell him what to do, he might just tell you to fuck off'. But he didn't. He was terrific. We talked about what he wanted to do. We're not talking about any very deep characterization here. There wasn't much there, and I figured whatever he brings to it, unless he's way out of the ballpark, can be handled. He's so good as an actor that you can't go wrong with him. And it was always, 'Would it be alright if I would be on this side?...' His instincts were perfect, and he didn't punch it in. He didn't say, 'I'm going to stop here and I don't care where you wind up with the camera,' which sometimes happens and you have to pedal really fast. He was also very shy. He didn't even want to announce that his last shot was done. He had said, 'Once we shoot the last shot, please don't say, 'This is the last shot for Frank Langella.' He just faded away." (Captains' Logs Supplemental - The Unauthorized Guide to the New Trek Voyages, p.62)
Producer Ira Steven Behr was delighted that Langella was chosen to play Jaro, stating he was, "a lot of fun to write for. Seeing [Louise] Fletcher and Langella together was great." In a 2011 interview with StarTrek.com, Behr recalled that he was, "very psyched when Frank Langella came on. I was psyched that we got Frank Langella to do three episodes." (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion, p.78; [3])
Similarly, actress Louise Fletcher recalled, "I liked that show very much, and I enjoyed working with Frank Langella. I got a very lovely note from Frank, saying how much he enjoyed working with me." [4]
Star Trek author Keith R.A. DeCandido thought Langella, "sells Jaro as an understandable (if not sympathetic) character. As Krim says at one point, 'We’re all patriots, Commander,' and Jaro truly believes he’s doing what’s best for Bajor. What he doesn’t sell, because the script won’t let him, is why so clever a character can’t see the long-term implications of kicking the Federation out. Even if the Cardassians weren’t the ones arming the Circle, their goals still play right into the Cardassians’ hands, as tossing Starfleet paves the way for Cardassia to come back and claim the wormhole (which is probably a much bigger prize to them than a planet they already abandoned)." [5]
ApocryphaEdit
In the Star Trek: Terok Nor novels Day of the Vipers and Dawn of the Eagles, Jaro serves as a major in the Bajoran Militia in the year 2318, and is later present for the official first contact between his people and the Cardassians, which eventually leads to the Occupation of Bajor a decade later.
When a group of aliens plan to destroy Bajor in the novel Objective: Bajor, Jaro lends his assistance to Bajoran First Minister Shakaar Edon. This takes place in the year 2372.
The Worlds of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine story Fragments and Omens reveals Jaro was forced out of office following the events of "The Siege" and imprisoned at Kran-Tobal prison where he remains until at least 2376.
Jaro's mirror universe counterpart is featured prominently in the novel The Soul Key, set in the year 2377. The novel depicts him as one of the leaders of the Bajoran dissident movement against the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance as well as Winn Adami's husband.

**Gender:** Male
**Species:** Bajoran
**Affiliation:** Bajoran Provisional Government; Alliance for Global Unity
**Occupation:** Minister; Coup leader
**Status:** Active (2370)
**Portrayed by:** Frank Langella
## History
In 2370, Jaro Essa became leader of the Alliance for Global Unity, which sought to remove the Federation from the Bajoran system. He attempted to overthrow the Provisional Government and install himself as leader of Bajor.
Later that year, Jaro appointed Li Nalas as Bajoran liaison officer on Deep Space 9 with the designation of navarch, following Li Nalas’s return from Cardassia IV. When Major Kira Nerys came close to uncovering his plot, he had her kidnapped. He revealed to her that he was the leader of the Circle and had assigned Li Nalas to the station so the war hero would not interfere with the coup.
Jaro purchased weapons from the Kressari, who were fronts for the Cardassians aiming to undermine the Bajoran government. He believed that a heavily armed Bajor could expel the Federation and defend itself. He was aided by Vedek Winn Adami, General Krim, and Colonel Day. His plan failed when Kira and Jadzia Dax exposed to the Bajoran Ministers that the Cardassians were secretly behind the arming of the Circle and provided evidence of their involvement.

We will not be that again. We are a people who brought art and architecture to countless planets. We don’t deserve to be victims.”
> — Kira Nerys and Jaro Essa (“The Circle”)
> “Major Kira has long been an outspoken opponent of the provisional government, of reason, of progress and now finally, of me. I am honoured to be included, Major, but I have no intention of allowing you to disrupt the orderly transition of power with these wild charges.”
> — Jaro Essa, on being confronted with proof the Cardassians were supplying the Circle (“The Siege”)
## Background Information
Jaro Essa was portrayed by Frank Langella. The script for “The Circle” describes Jaro as “the gifted politician, practiced at being ever-affable.”
Langella’s costume—an asymmetrical mauve jacket with zips, snaps, and sparkle accents paired with matching pants featuring black elastic stirrups and suspenders—was sold in the It’s A Wrap! auction for $370. He chose to receive no on-screen credit for his appearance. Director Winrich Kolbe explained that Langella “wanted to do the show… for his children, because they loved the show. It was not done for money or exposure.”
Kolbe recalled being both intimidated and impressed by Langella’s presence and instincts during filming. Producer Ira Steven Behr said Langella was “a lot of fun to write for,” and actress Louise Fletcher enjoyed working with him. Star Trek author Keith R. A. DeCandido noted that Langella “sells Jaro as an understandable (if not sympathetic) character,” though the script does not allow Jaro to see the long-term implications of expelling the Federation.
## Apocrypha
- In the *Star Trek: Terok Nor* novels *Day of the Vipers* and *Dawn of the Eagles*, Jaro serves as a major in the Bajoran Militia in 2318 and is present for the first Bajoran–Cardassian contact, leading to the Occupation of Bajor.
- In the novel *Objective: Bajor*, set in 2372, Jaro assists First Minister Shakaar Edon when a group of aliens plans to destroy Bajor.
- *Fragments and Omens* reveals that, after “The Siege,” Jaro was forced out of office and imprisoned at Kran-Tobal, where he remains until at least 2376.
- In the mirror-universe novel *The Soul Key* (2377), Jaro is a leader of the Bajoran dissident movement against the Klingon–Cardassian Alliance and is depicted as Winn Adami’s husband.

Solid Waste:
State and Federal Efforts to Manage Nonhazardous Waste
RCED-95-3: Published: Feb 2, 1995. Publicly Released: Mar 6, 1995.

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed state and federal efforts to manage municipal, commercial, and industrial solid waste, focusing on: (1) how states are addressing the rising costs of solid waste management and public opposition to solid waste facilities; and (2) the federal role in addressing solid waste management issues.
GAO found that: (1) as of December 1994, 46 states had developed or were developing solid waste management plans to address diminishing disposal capacity, the rising costs of solid waste management, and public opposition to new disposal sites in local communities; (2) the eight state plans reviewed propose options for managing solid waste and alternative financing mechanisms to support local recycling programs and landfill closings; (3) states have used special fees and taxes to finance 74 percent of their solid waste programs; (4) although local opposition to solid waste management facilities has delayed site selection and construction, two of the eight plans contain procedures for selecting waste management sites; (5) some state officials and industry experts believe that the federal government should assist in developing national source reduction goals, setting packaging and recovered material standards, developing markets for recyclable materials, and ensuring sufficient disposal capacity; (6) although the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) supports state source reduction and recycling efforts, it does not plan to enforce its 1992 municipal solid waste agenda or believe that it should lead recycling or source reduction activities; (7) although EPA projects that recycling rates of 25 to 35 percent may be achieved by the year 2000, additional advances may have to be made to achieve these rates; and (8) although legislation has been proposed authorizing states to restrict the interstate and intrastate shipment of solid waste, sufficient data do not exist to determine the impact of this authority on the solid waste management industry.

# Solid Waste: State and Federal Efforts to Manage Nonhazardous Waste
**Report Number:** RCED-95-3
**Publication Date:** Published - Feb 2, 1995 | Publicly Released - Mar 6, 1995
---
## Key Findings
1. **State Solid Waste Management Plans:**
- By December 1994, 46 states had developed or were developing solid waste management plans due to diminishing disposal capacity, rising costs, and public opposition to new facilities.
- Eight state plans reviewed proposed strategies for waste management and alternative financing for recycling and landfill closures.
- 74% of state solid waste programs were funded through special fees and taxes.
2. **Federal Role and EPA Stance:**
- States and industry experts called for federal support in:
- Establishing national source reduction goals.
- Setting packaging and recycling standards.
- Developing markets for recyclables.
- Ensuring sufficient disposal capacity.
- The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) supports state recycling efforts but does not plan to enforce its 1992 municipal solid waste goals or lead source reduction initiatives.
- EPA projects recycling rates of **25–35% by 2000** but acknowledges gaps in achieving these targets.
3. **Legislative and Market Considerations:**
- Proposed legislation allows states to restrict solid waste shipments but lacks data on potential industry impacts.

## GAO Review Focus
In response to a congressional request, the U.S. General Accounting Office (GAO) reviewed state and federal efforts to manage municipal, commercial, and industrial solid waste, with emphasis on:
1. How states address rising costs and public opposition to solid waste facilities.
2. The federal role in addressing solid waste management challenges.
---
## GAO Findings
As of December 1994:
1. **46 states** had developed or were developing solid waste management plans to address issues like diminishing disposal capacity, escalating costs, and community opposition to new disposal sites.
2. Eight reviewed state plans propose options for solid waste management and alternative financing mechanisms to support local recycling programs and landfill closures.
3. **74% of state solid waste programs** are funded through special fees and taxes.
4. Local opposition to solid waste facilities has delayed site selection and construction, but **two state plans include procedures** for selecting waste management sites.
**Federal and State Perspectives:**
5. Some state officials and industry experts advocate for federal assistance in:
- Developing national source reduction goals.
- Setting packaging and recycled material standards.
- Expanding markets for recyclables.
- Ensuring sufficient disposal capacity.
6. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) supports state recycling efforts but:
- Does not plan to enforce its 1992 municipal solid waste agenda.
- Declines to lead recycling or source reduction initiatives.
7. EPA projects recycling rates of **25–35% by 2000**, but achieving these levels may require additional advancements.
8. Legislation allowing states to restrict solid waste shipments (interstate/intrastate) has been proposed, but **sufficient data is lacking** to assess its impact on the industry.

**GAO Report GAO/RCED-95-3**
*Published: February 2, 1995 | Publicly Released: March 6, 1995*
---
### Key Findings
#### State-Level Actions
1. **Plan Development**: By December 1994, 46 states had developed or were creating solid waste management plans to address:
- Declining landfill capacity
- Rising management costs
- Public opposition to new facilities
2. **State Plan Examples (8 reviewed)**:
- Outlined waste management strategies and financing mechanisms
- 74% of state programs funded through special fees/taxes
- Two plans included procedures for facility site selection amid local opposition
3. **Stakeholder Perspectives**:
- State officials/industry experts called for federal assistance in:
- Establishing national source reduction goals
- Packaging and recycled material standards
- Developing recycling markets
- Ensuring disposal capacity
#### Federal Role
1. **EPA's Position**:
- Supports source reduction and recycling but opposes leading these efforts
- Does *not* plan to enforce the 1992 municipal solid waste agenda
2. **Recycling Projections**:
- EPA estimates recycling rates could reach 25–35% by 2000
- Additional efforts needed to meet these targets
3. **Legislative Proposals**:
- Bill would allow states to restrict interstate/intrastate waste shipments
- Insufficient data to assess potential impact on the industry

# Solid Waste: State and Federal Efforts to Manage Nonhazardous Waste
**Report RCED-95-3**
Published: February 2, 1995
Publicly Released: March 6, 1995
## Summary
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed state and federal efforts to manage municipal, commercial, and industrial solid waste, focusing on:
- How states are addressing the rising costs of solid waste management and public opposition to solid waste facilities
- The federal role in addressing solid waste management issues
GAO found that:
1. As of December 1994, 46 states had developed or were developing solid waste management plans to address diminishing disposal capacity, rising costs, and public opposition to new disposal sites.
2. The eight state plans reviewed propose options for managing solid waste and alternative financing mechanisms to support local recycling programs and landfill closings.
3. States have used special fees and taxes to finance 74 percent of their solid waste programs.
4. Although local opposition to solid waste management facilities has delayed site selection and construction, two of the eight plans contain procedures for selecting waste management sites.
5. Some state officials and industry experts believe that the federal government should assist in:
- Developing national source reduction goals
- Setting packaging and recovered material standards
- Developing markets for recyclable materials
- Ensuring sufficient disposal capacity
6. Although the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) supports state source reduction and recycling efforts, it does not plan to enforce its 1992 municipal solid waste agenda or believe that it should lead recycling or source reduction activities.
7. EPA projects that recycling rates of 25 to 35 percent may be achieved by the year 2000, but additional advances may have to be made to reach these rates.
8. Legislation has been proposed authorizing states to restrict interstate and intrastate shipment of solid waste, but sufficient data do not exist to determine the impact of this authority on the solid waste management industry.

Leliana 2 by Xavietta Leliana 2 by Xavietta
It's DONE! My BFF from Michigan is in town and since she just happens to be a photographer I made her take pictures of my Leliana :)
The costume itself, sadly, is not 100% finished. I'm missing the armband and the belt/pouches. But you know what? I don't care lol I'm so happy with the way this whole thing turned out, my OCD is taking a break.
More pictures can be seen in my gallery ^^

Do you buy your leather locally or from a specific provider? I know leather is expensive now from my SCA friends.

Morse Code Knows Where It's @
Feb 19, 2004 – International Morse Code, the nearly forgotten shorthand of early electronic communications, is being updated to 1990s technology. Morse Code was first introduced in 1844 and has seen little change since that time. As the electronic age continues to advance, Morse Code users were finding the need to transmit the "@" symbol. In December, the International Telecommunications Union voted to add the new character.
The new sign, which will be known as a commat, consists of the signals for "A" (dot-dash) and "C" (dash-dot-dash-dot), with no space between them.
The symbol was selected for use in e-mail addresses in 1972 because it was rarely used but widely available. It's history is not clearly known, but some credit it as being an adaptation of the Latin word ad meaning at, to or toward. The symbol encircles the letter a with the letter d. The symbol was adapted for commerce as a shorthand to mean at the price of.
Another possible origin is the flourished style of the letter a to mean amphora, a standard-sized terra cotta jar used in the 14th century.
In English, it is commonly referred to as the at sign. In other languages, it carries names related to names of animals, tails and ears. Some examples appear below.
• Czech: In the Czech Republic, it is called zavinac, meaning "rollmop," or "pickled herring"
• French: In France it is called arobase the name of the symbol. It is also referred to as un a commercial, meaning "business a", a enroule, meaning "coiled a", and sometimes escargot, meaning "snail" or petit escargot, meaning "little snail"

Webcasting Royalties Set by Copyright Office
Washington - Feb 18, 2004 - Info from Reuters reports that the U.S. Copyright Office has published the long-awaited royalty rates for Web music broadcasts, bringing to the year-long process to an end.
Regulations published on Feb. 6 accepted a resolution reached last April between online music broadcasters and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In addition to setting rates for the 2003-2004 license period, the Copyright Office also named Sound Exchange, formerly an arm of the RIAA that was spun off as a separate nonprofit group in Sept. 2003, as the only designated agent to collect and distribute royalties from webcasters and new online subscription services.
The recording industry and webcasters finally agreed on a proposed 0.076 cents per performance or 1.17 cents per aggregate hour tuned in for free, advertising-supported services. Webcasters had opposed other rates the RIAA suggested, saying they would put them out of business.
The negotiated rates were submitted to the Copyright Office for adoption on April 14, but a legal objection by one company, dropped last month, led to the delay. Under the new regulations, all covered services are required to submit a lump sum payment to Sound Exchange covering the period from Jan. 1, 2003, through Feb. 29, 2004, on or before April 14, 2004.
Starting in March, services are required to make royalty payments within 45 days after the end of each month. Additionally, commercial webcasters, broadcast simulcasters and new subscription services must choose their preferred rate structure by March 8, 2004.
SBE Celebrates 40 Years
Indianapolis - Feb 18, 2004 - The Society of Broadcast Engineers (SBE) will celebrate its 40th anniversary during the 2004 convention of the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) in Las Vegas. What started as a gathering of about 100 broadcast engineers at the Conrad Hilton Hotel in Chicago during the 1964 NAB Convention, has grown to more than 5,500 members in 107 chapters today.
SBE members attending the NAB convention in Las Vegas this spring are invited to celebrate the SBE's 40th anniversary during the SBE Membership Meeting on Tuesday, April 20 at 5 p.m. in room N110 of the Las Vegas Convention Center. The first 100 members in attendance will receive a commemorative SBE 40th anniversary memento. There will be door prizes including a digital camera to a lucky winner. The meeting will be sponsored by Microwave Radio Communications.
The first official meeting, April 5, 1964, came after several years of discontent over a merger between the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE) and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (now the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers or IEEE). Some felt the merged organizations would not serve the needs of the broadcast engineer well.
John Battison, then editor of Broadcast Engineering, wrote an editorial suggesting the time had come to organize a new organization for broadcast engineers. The editorial received a favorable response but no one came forward offering to organize the new group. Finally, Battison decided to do it himself, running an application form in his magazine and, with help from his family, writing letters to more than 5,000 TV and radio engineers in the United States and Canada. Battison's efforts led to an informal meeting in Binghamton, NY, in the latter part of 1963, which led to the first official meeting of the Institute of Broadcast Engineers (IBE) at the NAB convention the following April.
The first official business of the organization was to change its name. Those in attendance felt there would be confusion between the new IBE and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and they didn't want their new professional organization to be confused with a labor union. They voted at that first meeting to change the name to the Society of Broadcast Engineers. Battison became the organization's first president. He is still active as a broadcast engineering consultant and writes a regular column that appears in Radio magazine, sister publication to Broadcast Engineering. On the occasion of the SBE's 40th anniversary, Battison reminisced, "The Society of Broadcast Engineers was conceived in my office in Washington, DC, in 1961. It was born in 1964 in The Willard Room C in the Chicago Hilton, courtesy of NAB, and today, on its 40th birthday, it is a strong and hearty force in broadcast engineering thanks to the members who followed after me."
Current SBE president, Raymond Benedict remarked, "Since those small beginnings, the SBE has grown in size and stature. In response to industry needs, it has developed the most recognized and accepted certification program for broadcast engineers in the industry, quietly carried on an important volunteer frequency coordination service for the industry and has represented the interests of broadcast engineers with the FCC and other federal agencies. Most SBE chapters offer local members monthly meetings that feature educational presentations on the latest technology and broadcast equipment while providing an opportunity to network with fellow engineers. SBE will continue to provide the professional development services and network of colleagues that broadcast engineers will need in the years to come."
For more information about SBE membership, the certification program, chapters and other member services, contact the SBE National Office at 317-846-9000 or visit the website at
www.sbe.org.
SBE Begins Annual Member Recruitment Effort
Indianapolis - Feb 17, 2004 -The Society of Broadcast Engineers (SBE) will conduct its annual membership drive from March 1 through May 31, 2004. Members are urged to invite friends to the party, which is in recognition of the SBE’s 40th anniversary, and bring new members into the society. Though SBE accepts new members all year long, the membership drive is an annual special effort to recruit radio and TV engineers and those in related fields to the organization.
Current SBE members can win prizes and discounts on future membership dues by participating. New members will also be entered into a drawing for a valuable prize.
Details on the membership drive are available through the SBE National Office. Contact Angel Bates at 317-846-9000 or visit the SBE website at
www.sbe.org.
SBE has more than 5,500 members in 107 chapters across the United States. There are also members in 30 other countries. Most chapters meet monthly and offer educational programs and an opportunity to network with their peers. SBE also offers the largest and most accepted certification program for broadcast engineers, operators and technicians.

Digigram Sells Remaining Shares in Audemat-Aztec
Montbonnot, France - Feb 17, 2004 - Digigram has sold its 40 percent share in Audemat-Aztec, manufacturer of measurement and monitoring equipment for broadcast applications, to the remaining shareholders of Audemat-Aztec. Digigram made the decision so that it could concentrate on its core interest of providing digital audio solutions for the broadcast and public address markets. Although Audemat-Aztec will continue to develop products using Digigram technology, the commercial and technological overlap with the Audemat-Aztec's product portfolio was not big enough for Digigram to justify its continued minority involvement.
Audemat-Aztec was formed Jan. 1, 2003, in a merger between Audemat and Digigram subsidiary Aztec Radiomedia. At the time, Audemat shareholders received 60 percent of the new company with the remaining 40 percent held by Digigram.
Digigram will continue to manufacture, support and sell the Hitplayer, a stand-alone appliance for audio IP networks formerly developed by Aztec Radiomedia.

### Morse Code Knows Where It's @
**Feb 19, 2004** – International Morse Code is being updated to include the "@" symbol. Designed as a fusion of the "A" (dot-dash) and "C" (dash-dot-dash-dot) signals, the new "commat" addresses the need for transmitting e-mail addresses in modern communication. The symbol’s origins are debated, with theories linking it to the Latin *ad* (meaning "at") or the 14th-century amphora. Commonly called the "at sign" in English, it has diverse names in other languages:
- **Czech**: *zavinac* ("pickled herring")

### Morse Code Knows Where It's @
*Feb 19, 2004* | International Morse Code, the shorthand of early electronic communications, is now updated to include the "@" symbol for use in e-mail transmission. The "commat" symbol was adopted by the International Telecommunications Union after gaining prominence for business use since 1972. Alternate names include:
- **Czech:** zavinac ("rollmop")
- **French:** arobase / escargot ("snail")
- **German:** Affenschwanz ("monkey's tail")
- **Greek:** papaki ("duck")
- **Norwegian:** grisehale ("pig's tail")
- **Polish:** malpa ("monkey") / kotek ("cat")
- **Swedish:** snabel-a ("elephant trunk")
The symbol's origins trace to Latin "ad" (at/to) and the 14th-century amphora jar symbol. Financial rates and royalty details for webcasting were also finalized, ending a year-long dispute.
### Webcasting Royalties Set by Copyright Office

# Radio Currents Online – Feb 16–22, 2004
## Morse Code Knows Where It’s @
**Feb 19, 2004**
International Morse Code, the nearly forgotten shorthand of early electronic communications, is being updated to 1990s technology. Morse Code was first introduced in 1844 and has seen little change since that time. As the electronic age continues to advance, Morse Code users were finding the need to transmit the “@” symbol. In December, the International Telecommunications Union voted to add the new character.
The new sign, which will be known as a commat, consists of the signals for “A” (dot-dash) and “C” (dash-dot-dash-dot), with no space between them.
The symbol was selected for use in e-mail addresses in 1972 because it was rarely used but widely available. Its history is not clearly known, but some credit it as being an adaptation of the Latin word ad meaning “at,” “to” or “toward,” enclosing the letter a with the letter d. The symbol was adapted for commerce as a shorthand to mean “at the price of.”
Another possible origin is the flourished style of the letter a to mean amphora, a standard-sized terra cotta jar used in the 14th century.
In English, it is commonly referred to as the at sign. In other languages, it carries names related to animals, tails and ears. Some examples:
- Czech: zavináč (“rollmop,” “pickled herring”)
- French: arobase; also un a commercial (“business a”), a enroulé (“coiled a”), escargot (“snail”), petit escargot (“little snail”)
- German: Affenschwanz (“monkey’s tail”); Klammeraffe (“hanging monkey”)
- Greek: papaki (“little duck”)
- Norwegian: grisehale (“pig’s tail”); krollelfa (“curly alpha”)
- Polish: małpa (“monkey”); kotek (“little cat”); ucho świni (“pig’s ear”)
- Swedish: snabel-a (“trunk-a,” “a with an elephant’s trunk”)

## Webcasting Royalties Set by Copyright Office
**Washington – Feb 18, 2004**
Info from Reuters reports that the U.S. Copyright Office has published the long-awaited royalty rates for Web music broadcasts, bringing a year-long process to an end.
Regulations published on Feb. 6 accepted a resolution reached last April between online music broadcasters and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In addition to setting rates for the 2003–2004 license period, the Copyright Office named SoundExchange (formerly an arm of the RIAA spun off as a separate nonprofit in Sept. 2003) as the only designated agent to collect and distribute royalties from webcasters and new online subscription services.
The recording industry and webcasters agreed on a proposed 0.076 cents per performance or 1.17 cents per aggregate hour tuned in for free, advertising-supported services. Webcasters had opposed other rates the RIAA suggested, saying they would put them out of business.
Under the new regulations, all covered services must submit a lump-sum payment to SoundExchange covering Jan. 1, 2003, through Feb. 29, 2004, on or before April 14, 2004. Starting in March, services are required to make royalty payments within 45 days after the end of each month. Commercial webcasters, broadcast simulcasters and new subscription services must choose their preferred rate structure by March 8, 2004.

## SBE Celebrates 40 Years
**Indianapolis – Feb 18, 2004**
The Society of Broadcast Engineers (SBE) will celebrate its 40th anniversary during the 2004 convention of the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) in Las Vegas. What started as a gathering of about 100 broadcast engineers at the Conrad Hilton Hotel in Chicago during the 1964 NAB Convention has grown to more than 5,500 members in 107 chapters today.
SBE members attending NAB are invited to celebrate the 40th anniversary during the SBE Membership Meeting on Tuesday, April 20 at 5 p.m. in room N110 of the Las Vegas Convention Center. The first 100 members in attendance will receive a commemorative memento. Door prizes include a digital camera. The meeting is sponsored by Microwave Radio Communications.
The first official meeting on April 5, 1964, arose after discontent over the merger of the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE) and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (now IEEE). John Battison, then editor of Broadcast Engineering, suggested organizing a new group for broadcast engineers. With help from his family and letters to more than 5,000 TV and radio engineers, he led to an informal meeting in 1963, followed by the first Institute of Broadcast Engineers (IBE) meeting at the 1964 NAB convention. Attendees immediately changed the name to the Society of Broadcast Engineers to avoid confusion with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW). Battison became the first president; he remains active as a consultant and columnist.
On the 40th anniversary, Battison said, “The Society of Broadcast Engineers was conceived in my office in Washington, DC, in 1961. It was born in 1964 in The Willard Room C in the Chicago Hilton… and today… it is a strong and hearty force in broadcast engineering thanks to the members who followed after me.”
Current SBE president Raymond Benedict remarked, “Since those small beginnings, the SBE has grown in size and stature. … It has developed the most recognized and accepted certification program for broadcast engineers, carried on an important volunteer frequency coordination service, and represented the interests of broadcast engineers with the FCC and other federal agencies. Most SBE chapters offer educational presentations and networking opportunities. SBE will continue to provide the professional development services and network of colleagues that broadcast engineers will need in the years to come.”
For more information about SBE membership, certification and chapters, contact the SBE National Office at 317-846-9000 or visit www.sbe.org.

## SBE Begins Annual Member Recruitment Effort
**Indianapolis – Feb 17, 2004**
The Society of Broadcast Engineers (SBE) will conduct its annual membership drive from March 1 through May 31, 2004, in recognition of its 40th anniversary. Members are urged to invite friends—radio and TV engineers and related professionals—to join. Though SBE accepts new members year-round, the drive is a special effort offering prizes and discounts on future dues for current members, and entry into a drawing for a valuable prize for new members.
Details are available through the SBE National Office. Contact Angel Bates at 317-846-9000 or visit www.sbe.org.
SBE has more than 5,500 members in 107 U.S. chapters and members in 30 other countries. Most chapters meet monthly with educational programs and networking. SBE offers the largest and most accepted certification program for broadcast engineers, operators and technicians.

## Digigram Sells Remaining Shares in Audemat-Aztec
**Montbonnot, France – Feb 17, 2004**
Digigram has sold its 40 percent share in Audemat-Aztec, manufacturer of measurement and monitoring equipment for broadcast applications, to the remaining shareholders. Digigram made the decision to concentrate on its core interest of providing digital audio solutions for broadcast and public address markets. Although Audemat-Aztec will continue to develop products using Digigram technology, the commercial and technological overlap was not sufficient to justify continuing minority involvement.
Audemat-Aztec was formed Jan. 1, 2003, in a merger between Audemat and Digigram subsidiary Aztec Radiomedia. Audemat shareholders held 60 percent of the new company; Digigram held 40 percent at that time.
Digigram will continue to manufacture, support and sell the Hitplayer, a stand-alone appliance for audio IP networks formerly developed by Aztec Radiomedia.

Heat-conducting polymer cools hot electronic devices at 200 degrees Celsius
Mar 30, 2014

Polymer materials are usually thermal insulators. But by harnessing an electropolymerization process to produce aligned arrays of polymer nanofibers, researchers have developed a thermal interface material able to conduct heat 20 times better than the original polymer. The modified material can reliably operate at temperatures of up to 200 degrees Celsius.
The new thermal interface material could be used to draw heat away from electronic devices in servers, automobiles, high-brightness LEDs and certain mobile devices. The material is fabricated on heat sinks and heat spreaders and adheres well to devices, potentially avoiding the reliability challenges caused by differential expansion in other thermally-conducting .
"Thermal management schemes can get more complicated as devices get smaller," said Baratunde Cola, an assistant professor in the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. "A material like this, which could also offer higher reliability, could be attractive for addressing thermal management issues. This material could ultimately allow us to design electronic systems in different ways."
The research, which was supported by the National Science Foundation, was reported March 30 in the advance online publication of the journal Nature Nanotechnology. The project involved researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology, University of Texas at Austin, and the Raytheon Company. Virendra Singh, a research scientist in the Woodruff School, and Thomas Bougher, a Ph.D. student in the Woodruff School, are the paper's co-first authors.
Amorphous polymer materials are poor thermal conductors because their disordered state limits the transfer of heat-conducting phonons. That transfer can be improved by creating aligned crystalline structures in the polymers, but those structures – formed through a fiber drawing processes – can leave the material brittle and easily fractured as devices expand and contract during heating and cooling cycles.
The new interface material is produced from a conjugated polymer, polythiophene, in which aligned polymer chains in nanofibers facilitate the transfer of phonons – but without the brittleness associated with crystalline structures, Cola explained. Formation of the nanofibers produces an amorphous material with of up to 4.4 watts per meter Kelvin at room temperature.
The material has been tested up to 200 degrees Celsius, a temperature that could make it useful for applications in vehicles. Solder materials have been used for thermal interfaces between chips and heat sinks, but may not be reliable when operated close to their reflow temperatures.
"Polymers aren't typically thought of for these applications because they normally degrade at such a low temperature," Cola explained. "But these conjugated polymers are already used in solar cells and electronic devices, and can also work as thermal materials. We are taking advantage of the fact that they have a higher thermal stability because the bonding is stronger than in typical polymers."
The structures are grown in a multi-step process that begins with an alumina template containing tiny pores covered by an electrolyte containing monomer precursors. When an electrical potential is applied to the template, electrodes at the base of each pore attract the monomers and begin forming hollow nanofibers. The amount of current applied and the growth time control the length of the fibers and the thickness of their walls, while the pore size controls the diameter. Fiber diameters range from 18 to 300 nanometers, depending on the pore template.
After formation of the monomer chains, the nanofibers are cross-linked with an electropolymerization process, and the template removed. The resulting structure can be attached to electronic devices through the application of a liquid such as water or a solvent, which spreads the fibers and creates adhesion through capillary action and van der Waals forces.
"With the electrochemical polymerization processing approach that we took, we were able to align the chains of the polymer, and the template appears to prevent the chains from folding into crystals so the material remained amorphous," Cola explained. "Even though our material is amorphous from a crystalline standpoint, the polymer chains are highly aligned – about 40 percent in some of our samples."
Though the technique still requires further development and is not fully understood theoretically, Cola believes it could be scaled up for manufacturing and commercialization. The new material could allow reliable thermal interfaces as thin as three microns – compared to as much as 50 to 75 microns with conventional materials.

Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Tech, and Ph.D. student Tom Bougher, show photoacoustic test equipment used to measure heat conductance of a new polymer material developed for thermal management.

"There are some challenges with our solution, but the process is inherently scalable in a fashion similar to electroplating," he said. "This material is well known for its other applications, but ours is a different use."
Engineers have been searching for an improved thermal interface material that could help remove heat from . The problem of removing heat has worsened as devices have gotten both smaller and more powerful.
Rather than pursue materials because of their high thermal conductivity, Cola and his collaborators investigated materials that could provide higher levels of contact in the interface. That's because in some of the best thermal interface materials, less than one percent of the material was actually making contact.
"I stopped thinking so much about the thermal conductivity of the materials and started thinking about what kinds of materials make really good contact in an interface," Cola said. He decided to pursue polythiophene materials after reading a paper describing a "gecko foot" application in which the material provided an estimated 80 percent contact.
Samples of the material have been tested to 200 degrees Celsius through 80 thermal cycles without any detectable difference in performance. While further work will be necessary to understand the mechanism, Cola believes the robustness results from adhesion of the polymer rather than a bonding.
"We can have contact without a permanent bond being formed," he said. "It's not permanent, so it has a built-in stress accommodation. It slides along and lets the stress from thermal cycling relax out."
In addition to those already mentioned, co-authors of the paper included Professor Kenneth Sandhage, Research Scientist Ye Cai, Assistant Professor Asegun Henry and graduate assistant Wei Lv of Georgia Tech; Prof. Li Shi, Annie Weathers, Kedong Bi, Micheal T. Pettes and Sally McMenamin in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin; and Daniel P. Resler, Todd Gattuso and David Altman of the Raytheon Company.
A patent application has been filed on the material. Cola has formed a startup company, Carbice Nanotechnologies, to commercialize thermal interface technologies. It is a member of Georgia Tech's VentureLab program.

# Heat-conducting polymer cools hot electronic devices at 200 °C
*March 30, 2014*

## Overview
Polymer materials are usually thermal insulators. By harnessing an electropolymerization process to produce aligned arrays of polymer nanofibers, researchers have developed a thermal interface material that conducts heat 20 times better than the original polymer and can reliably operate at temperatures up to 200 °C. Applications include heat sinks and spreaders for servers, automobiles, high-brightness LEDs, and mobile devices.
## Fabrication Process
1. **Template preparation**
An alumina template containing pores (18–300 nm diameter) is covered by an electrolyte with monomer precursors.
2. **Nanofiber growth**
An electrical potential attracts monomers to electrodes at the base of each pore, forming hollow nanofibers. Fiber length and wall thickness are controlled by current and growth time; pore size controls diameter.
3. **Cross-linking and template removal**
Nanofibers are cross-linked via electropolymerization, then the template is removed.
4. **Attachment to devices**
A liquid (water or solvent) spreads the fibers and creates adhesion through capillary action and van der Waals forces.
## Material Properties
- **Polymer type:** Conjugated polythiophene
- **Structure:** Amorphous bulk with highly aligned polymer chains in nanofibers
- **Thermal conductivity:** Up to 4.4 W·m⁻¹·K⁻¹ at room temperature
- **Operational temperature:** Tested through 80 thermal cycles up to 200 °C without performance degradation
- **Interface thickness:** As thin as 3 μm (vs. 50–75 μm for conventional materials)
> “With the electrochemical polymerization processing approach that we took, we were able to align the chains of the polymer, and the template appears to prevent the chains from folding into crystals so the material remained amorphous,” said Baratunde Cola. “Even though our material is amorphous from a crystalline standpoint, the polymer chains are highly aligned — about 40 percent in some of our samples.”
## Advantages & Applications
- Draws heat away from electronic devices while accommodating differential thermal expansion
- Avoids brittleness of crystalline polymer fibers
- Potentially more reliable than solder-based interfaces near reflow temperatures

Nearly Half of Chicago's Immigration Service Centers Face Fines in Crackdown
Some of the city's 54 service centers accused of dispensing legal advice

An undercover investigation of immigration services businesses, prompted after citizen complaints, has resulted in several of those businesses facing fines and license revocations.
Miguel Campos, an investigator with Chicago's Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection, said 24 of the 54 firms doing business as immigration service providers in the city were not in compliance with state and city ordinances that, among other things, strictly prohibits them from dispensing legal advice.
"He was giving me illegal advice. He was giving me illegal opinion. He was informing me of what documents I would need to fill out in the future," he said after paying a visit to one firm and posing as a man wanting help with paperwork to bring his girlfriend to Chicago from Mexico.
The advice seekers receive may have potentially unintended consequences. The simple filing of the wrong form can be enough to trigger a deportation, explained Mony Ruiz-Velasco, the Legal Director of the National Immigrant Justice Center.
"We see it every day," she said. "That's a great harm that come in these cases."
Campos returned Wednesday to one of the businesses, Escritorio Public Inc., on the 2200 block of West Cermak Rd., where he found violations.
But owner Juan Moondragon insisted he was in compliance with the parts of the city ordinance of which he was aware and pointed to signs in his office indicating that he is not a lawyer.
"Well, for one thing I think it's good that they're trying to get people who are passing off as lawyers but also at the same time they're killing the small businesss," Moondragon said when asked of the crackdown. "Basically we just talk to the clients and if they decide to do paperwork, they're fine. We follow up on whatever they say and whatever they want to do."
The businesses that were cited face fines and, in the most severe cases, revocation of their business licenses if found guilty.

## Key Violations and Investigation Outcomes
An undercover investigation, initiated after citizen complaints, revealed non-compliance among immigration service providers in Chicago. According to **Miguel Campos**, an investigator with the Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection:
> "24 of the 54 firms doing business as immigration service providers in the city were not in compliance with state and city ordinances."
These violations primarily involved unauthorized legal advice, a strict violation of regulations. Campos recounted an undercover visit to a firm where the operator "gave illegal advice... inform[ed] me of what documents I would need to fill out," posing as a client seeking assistance to bring a partner from Mexico to Chicago.

**Mony Ruiz-Velasco**, Legal Director of the National Immigrant Justice Center, emphasized the risks of improper guidance:
> "The simple filing of the wrong form can be enough to trigger a deportation. We see it every day. That's a great harm that comes in these cases."
---
## Notable Case: Escritorio Public Inc.
Campos revisited **Escritorio Public Inc.** (2200 block of West Cermak Rd.) and found violations. **Juan Moondragon**, the owner, defended his compliance, noting his clear office signage stating he is not a lawyer. Moondragon expressed concerns about the crackdown impacting small businesses:
> "We just talk to the clients and if they decide to do paperwork, they're fine. We follow up on whatever they say and whatever they want to do."
---
## Legal Penalties and Next Steps
Non-compliant businesses now face fines and potential license revocation for severe violations, according to city officials. The crackdown highlights enforcement of ordinances that strictly limit unauthorized legal services.

Eastern Sierra Over Memorial Day: Thor’s First Camping Trip!
This year, we took a more laid back approach to our annual Memorial Day Trip in the Eastern Sierra. In past years we’ve bagged peaks and escaped snow storms, but this year we decided to take it easy. Why? Well, first of all, David was recovering from minor surgery and couldn’t lift or do any strenuous activity. But also? It was Mighty Thor‘s first camping trip! We didn’t want to overwhelm the guy, so we just tooled around the Eastern Sierra and let him have a lot of new experiences.
David removed the whole back seat of the pickup truck so that Thor has a big space to enjoy on the long drives. He was a champ and had no issues on the 6+ hour drive to Lone Pine on the first night!
Let's go camping!
Let’s go camping!
We arrived at our campsite in the Alabama Hills after dark and met friends. Thor had fun going bonkers, and slept soundly in his crate just below us at the end of the truck. In the morning, I poked my head out of my sleeping bag and was greeted with one of my favorite views on the planet.
Hello Mount Whitney!
Hello Mount Whitney!
On Saturday morning we decided to head north and check out some of the creeks flowing out of the mountains. Our goal was to find a good little swimming hole to get Thor in water. We didn’t have much luck up along Goodale Creek, so we headed south, stopping by the Whitney Fish Hatchery for a picnic lunch.

From here we decided to drive in towards the Baxter Pass trailhead. It’s one of the few east side approaches I have not been on before, so the drive was new to me. It was along this road that we found a perfect little swimming hole for Thor to comfortably splash around in. I say it was a success for his first swimming lesson!

We got back to camp mid afternoon and while the boys lounged around in the shade I decided to head off on a short hike to explore. The Alabama Hills are famous for many reasons, one of them being the crazy arch formations that can be found all over the place. I visited eight within a ~3 mile loop hike from camp.

The next morning we headed north and explored Casa Diablo Road. The views of the sierra were fantastic, especially with a fresh dusting of snow.

Next, Thor went fishing with David. Neither caught anything.

For our last night, we ended up at one of our favorite dispersed campsites way out in the middle of nowhere. A big open space meant lots of fun for Thor who got to run around with the zoomies, play fetch, and act as stoic camp guard dog.

Even puppies get new camp gear, and this time he was enjoying his new Ruffwear bed. Look at that space! He loved having a soft spot to get out of the dirt, and I loved how packable it is, rolling up into a nice compact roll with built in handle and velcro straps.

One of the reasons this is a favorite campsite is this morning view. A holiday weekend but not a soul in sight.

For his final first camping trip adventure, we stopped at Tioga Pass on the way home and let him walk on the snow. He didn’t care one bit.

Overall, Thor did great on his first trip! He got to play a bunch, swim in a creek, experience snow, meet new people, and sleep with us instead of in his crate. I think he’s already excited for his next trip!

Good for Thor! I just went on a weekend trip with my little guy and he didn’t fare as well. He whined the whole drive, whined while I played with my daughter, had to be leashed since there was poison oak (can’t be free of it here in Los Padres), got frightened of other off-leash dogs, and woke up barking every two hours during the night (and we slept in the car!). Perhaps if I take him somewhere more remote without poison oak, that would work better to wear him out.

# Eastern Sierra Over Memorial Day: Thor’s First Camping Trip!
This year, we opted for a more relaxed Memorial Day adventure to the Eastern Sierra. Previously marred by peak bagging and snow storm escapes, this year’s version was low-key due to two main reasons: David’s recovery from minor surgery and Team Thor’s first camping debut! We prioritized pacing and experience over activity, allowing our new furry friend to acclimate.
## Preparing for the Trip
David removed the truck’s back seat to create ample space for Thor during the 6+ hour drive to Lone Pine. The pup handled the journey without issue and slept in his crate below the truck.
---
## Day 1: Alabama Hills
After dusk, we arrived at our campsite in the **Alabama Hills**, where we connected with friends. Morning greeted us with the iconic **Mount Whitney** view.
---
## Day 2: Creek Explorations
Saturday morning was dedicated to creek swimming. Initial attempts along **Goodale Creek** were unsuccessful, but we found a perfect splash zone at **Baxter Pass trailhead**, where Thor aced his first swim lesson.
David and I explored Alabama Hills’ famed arch formations via an 8-arch, 3-mile loop hike. Highlights included:
- **Behind-the-Heart Arch**
- **Heart Arch**
- **Lathe Arch**
- **Mobius Arch** (crowd-favorite)
- **Space Arch**
- **Baseball Bat Arch**
- **Eye of Alabama Arch**
- **Shark Tooth Arch**
---
## Day 3: Sierra Scenery and Pup Activities
- Morning drive along **Casa Diablo Road**, showcasing fresh snow-laced Sierra vistas.
- Thor joined David for an unsuccessful fishing foray near **June Lake**.
- Final night at a remote dispersed campsites—ideal for puppy zoomies, fetch, and camping guard dog duties.
- Thor lounged in his new **Ruffwear Mt Bachelor bed**, designed for both comfort and portability.
---
## Final Day: Tioga Pass Snow Stop
Climaxed with a photo op for Thor on snow at **Tioga Pass**. Despite the terrain, the pup remained unimpressed!
---
## Verdict
Thor excelled on his inaugural trip: swimming, snow exposure, socialization, and improved crate-free sleep. Early anticipation for the next adventure is already building!
---
### Comment by 100Peaks
**100Peaks:**
Good for Thor! I recently embarked on a more challenging trip with my puppy. He whined throughout the drive, disliked playing near poison oak, grew anxious around off-leash dogs, and slept restlessly in our car. Perhaps remote, obstruction-free locations would better suit his energy and ease.

# Eastern Sierra Over Memorial Day: Thor’s First Camping Trip!
This year, we took a more laid-back approach to our annual Memorial Day trip in the Eastern Sierra. In past years, we’ve bagged peaks and escaped snow storms, but this year focused on relaxation:
- **Why?** David recovered from minor surgery (no strenuous activity), and **Thor** (our puppy) experienced camping for the first time.
## Preparing for the Trip
- **Logistics:** David removed the back seat of the pickup truck, giving Thor a spacious seat for the 6+ hour drive to Lone Pine.
- **Thor’s Adjustment:** He was a “champ,” sleeping soundly in his crate at the end of the truck.
---
## Day 1: Alabama Hills
- **Arrival:** Dropped into the Alabama Hills after dark, met friends, and Thor enjoyed free-range exploration.
- **Morning Greeting:** Awe-worthy sunrise over Mount Whitney.
- **Activity:** Themed our day around easy exploration, avoiding stress for Thor.
---
## Day 2: Creeks & Arches
### Morning: Creek Search
- **Goodale Creek** yielded no swimming hole, so we pivoted to:
- **Whitney Fish Hatchery** for a picnic lunch.
### Afternoon: Baxter Pass Trailhead
- **Breakthrough:** Found a perfect shallow swimming spot for Thor’s first lesson. Success!
### Hike: Alabama Hills Arch Loop
Completed an ~3-mile loop, visiting 8 unique rock arches:
1. **Behind-the-Heart Arch**
2. **Heart Arch**
3. **Lathe Arch**
4. **Mobius Arch** (crowded, but famous)
5. **Space Arch**
6. **Baseball Bat Arch**
7. **Eye of Alabama Arch**
8. **Shark Tooth Arch**
---
## Day 3: Casa Diablo Road & Fish Fiasco
- **Scenic Drive:** Casa Diablo Road offered stunning Sierra vistas, especially freshly dusted with snow.
- **Fishing Trip:** Thor and David attempted angling near June Lake—zero catches, but educational!
---
## Day 4: Dispersed Camping & Snow Stop
- **Campsite:** Remote, open space where Thor ran “zoomies,” fetched, and guarded camp.
- **New Gear:** Thor claimed his Ruffwear Mt Bachelor Bed. Key perks:
- Soft dirt barrier
- Packable roll with handle/straps
- **Final Morning:** Stunned by an untouched, holiday-quiet view.
- **Tioga Pass:** Last stop—Thor bravely (if indifferently) walked through snow.
---
## Reflections on Thor’s First Trip
- ✅ **Achievements:**
- Swam in a creek
- Witnessed snow
- Socialized outdoors
- Slept beside us (no crate!)
- 🐾 **Verdict:** Thor thrived! Already excited for his next adventure.

## Reader Comment
> **Rebecca Sowards-Emmerd** shared a contrasting experience: her dog whined during the trip, struggled with poison oak, and barked every 2 hours. She concludes: remote, toxin-free areas might help future trips.

# Eastern Sierra Over Memorial Day: Thor’s First Camping Trip!
This year, we took a more laid-back approach to our annual Memorial Day trip in the Eastern Sierra. In past years we’ve bagged peaks and escaped snow storms, but this year we simplified: **David was recovering from minor surgery** (no strenuous activity allowed), and it was **Mighty Thor’s first camping trip**! We prioritized easing him into outdoor adventures.
David completely removed the pickup truck’s back seat, giving Thor a spacious car ride. Thor handled the 6+ hour drive to Lone Pine with ease on the first night.
---
## Day 1: Alabama Hills
After dark, we arrived at our Alabama Hills campsite and mingled with friends. Thor played exuberantly and slept securely in his climate-controlled crate beneath the truck. The next morning, I awoke to **one of my favorite views on the planet**.
*Hello Mount Whitney!*
---
## Day 2: Creeks, Hiking, and Arches
Saturday morning? We searched for a swimming hole for Thor. After some creek exploration (Goodale Creek yielded nothing), and a picnic at **Whitney Fish Hatchery**, we stumbled on **Baxter Pass trailhead**. There, we found a perfect no-pressure splash zone for Thor’s **first swim lesson**—a success!
Mid-afternoon, I hiked ~3 miles and documented **eight wild arches** in the Alabama Hills.
### Arches Explored:
1. **Behind-the-Heart Arch** (site and camp visible)
2. **Heart Arch**
3. **Lathe Arch**
4. **Mobius Arch** – the only crowd-adjacent arch
5. **Space Arch**
6. **Baseball Bat Arch**
7. **Eye of Alabama Arch**
8. **Shark Tooth Arch**
---
## Day 3: Casa Diablo and Snow
After a dusting of snow, we drove **Casa Diablo Road** for epic Sierra vistas. David then taught Thor to fly-fish—we caught nothing, but the humor was worth it.
*Fishing near June Lake*
---
## Day 4: Remote Camping and Final Memories
Our final night featured a remote dispersed campsite. Thor thrilled in his new role: **camp guardian**, zooming across the open space, fetching, and playing in his **Ruffwear bed** (highly packable, soft, and dirt-repellent). The private location offered unparalleled solace: *isolated with no other souls in sight*.
On our way home, Thor braved snow at Tioga Pass. His nonchalant response? Pure adventurer spirit.

## Conclusion
Thor aced his first camping trip: creek swims, snowy trails, socializing, and crate-free sleeping. He’s already begging for more!

Overall, Thor did great on his first trip! He got to play a bunch, swim in a creek, experience snow, meet new people, and sleep with us instead of in his crate. I think he’s already excited for his next trip!

_ Kevin @ 100Peaks:
Good for Thor! I just went on a weekend trip with my little guy and he didn’t fare as well. He whined the whole drive, whined while I played with my daughter, had to be leashed since there was poison oak (can’t be free of it here in Los Padres), got frightened of other off-leash dogs, and woke up barking every two hours during the night (and we slept in the car!). Perhaps if I take him somewhere more remote without poison oak, that would work better to wear him out._

# Eastern Sierra Over Memorial Day: Thor’s First Camping Trip!
This year, we took a more laid back approach to our annual Memorial Day Trip in the Eastern Sierra. In past years we’ve bagged peaks and escaped snow storms, but this year we decided to take it easy. Why? Well, first of all, David was recovering from minor surgery and couldn’t lift or do any strenuous activity. But also? It was Mighty Thor’s first camping trip! We didn’t want to overwhelm the guy, so we just tooled around the Eastern Sierra and let him have a lot of new experiences.
David removed the whole back seat of the pickup truck so that Thor has a big space to enjoy on the long drives. He was a champ and had no issues on the 6+ hour drive to Lone Pine on the first night!
## Day 1: Arrival in the Alabama Hills
We arrived at our campsite in the Alabama Hills after dark and met friends. Thor had fun going bonkers and slept soundly in his crate just below us at the end of the truck. In the morning, I poked my head out of my sleeping bag and was greeted with one of my favorite views on the planet.
*Hello Mount Whitney!*
## Day 2: Creek Adventures and Arch Explorations
On Saturday morning we decided to head north and check out some of the creeks flowing out of the mountains. Our goal was to find a good little swimming hole to get Thor in water. We didn’t have much luck up along Goodale Creek, so we headed south, stopping by the Whitney Fish Hatchery for a picnic lunch.
*Whitney Fish Hatchery*
From here we decided to drive in towards the Baxter Pass trailhead. It’s one of the few east side approaches I have not been on before, so the drive was new to me. It was along this road that we found a perfect little swimming hole for Thor to comfortably splash around in. I say it was a success for his first swimming lesson!
*Thor's first swim lesson*
We got back to camp mid afternoon and while the boys lounged around in the shade, I decided to head off on a short hike to explore. The Alabama Hills are famous for many reasons, one of them being the crazy arch formations that can be found all over the place. I visited eight within a ~3-mile loop hike from camp:
1. **Behind-the-Heart Arch**
*Behind-the-Heart Arch and Camp*
2. **Heart Arch**
*Heart Arch*
3. **Lathe Arch**
*Lathe Arch*
4. **Mobius Arch**

5. **Space Arch**

6. **Baseball Bat Arch**

7. **Eye of Alabama Arch**

8. **Shark Tooth Arch**

## Day 3: Scenic Drives and Final Moments
The next morning we headed north and explored Casa Diablo Road. The views of the Sierra were fantastic, especially with a fresh dusting of snow.
*Sierra from Casa Diablo*
Next, Thor went fishing with David. Neither caught anything.
*Fishing near June Lake*
For our last night, we ended up at one of our favorite dispersed campsites in the middle of nowhere. A big open space meant lots of fun for Thor who got to run around, play fetch, and act as a stoic camp guard dog.
*Thor the camp guardian*
Even puppies get new camp gear—Thor enjoyed his new Ruffwear bed, which I loved for its compact storage design.
*Thor on his Mt Bachelor Ruffwear bed*
The view from camp that morning was unmatched. A holiday weekend but not a soul in sight.
*Campsite view in the morning*
On our way home, we stopped at Tioga Pass to let Thor walk on the snow. He didn’t care one bit.

## Conclusion
Overall, Thor did great on his first trip! He got to play, swim, experience snow, meet new people, and sleep with us. I think he’s already excited for his next adventure!

Even puppies get new camp gear! This time he was enjoying his new Ruffwear bed—plenty of space, roll-up packability, and a built-in handle with Velcro straps.

Ken Vandermark's back in town and playing hard
Ken Vandermark

For the past couple of decades, Chicago saxophonist Ken Vandermark has been racing around the globe, prolifically recording, performing and generating provocative new ideas in music.
His innovative work and seemingly inexhaustible efforts won him a MacArthur Fellowship in 1999 and an ever-growing audience of listeners who value daring sounds in jazz.
So it comes as something of a surprise to see that Vandermark has anchored himself back home in Chicago for January and February, a significant pause in his worldwide travels.
"To be home for almost three months – because I was around for most of December, too, aside from a few really short trips – it's unusual for me," acknowledges Vandermark, 49.
"I'm trying to develop some stuff in Chicago, after being in Europe so much for so many years and focusing really on everything that was happening there."
Indeed, though Vandermark isn't spending this season on planes and trains, he has applied his famously galvanic energy to bringing new music to Chicago stages, a boon to anyone who values the man's creative spirit and the unconventional sounds it yields.
This weekend at the Green Mill, he'll unveil one of his most ambitious efforts to date, Audio One, a gathering of 10 instrumentalists of considerable reputation and achievement. Audio One features all the personnel that staffed Vandermark's brawny, brainy Midwest School band, plus vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz. But this time the extended ensemble will be premiering new scores by Vandermark (as opposed to the works of Roscoe Mitchell, Anthony Braxton, Henry Threadgill and Julius Hemphill that were the foundation of Midwest School's repertory).
Then, starting on Tuesday, Vandermark will play a weekly engagement through February at Elastic, on North Milwaukee Avenue, with the new Chicago Reed Quartet, featuring Vandermark with Dave Rempis, Nick Mazzarella and Mars Williams, each a formidable player.
Add to this upcoming shows with the rejuvenated Caffeine, a free-improvisation group Vandermark helped power in the 1990s, plus some Vandermark solo sets, and Chicagoans will be able to hear multiple facets of the protean musician's work over an unusually extended time frame.
To fuel all this activity, Vandermark has been spending hours every day in Chicago composing scores, a luxury he hasn't enjoyed in a long time.
"I do a lot of writing on the road, but you go into your hotel room or into someone's apartment after a show and close the door and work – and then you're gone the next day and you're trying to hold onto the threads," he says. "The stability of the framework at home has allowed me to focus more deeply on certain aspects of composing, which is just impossible when I'm touring."
Perhaps the most promising venture of Vandermark's winter residency is Audio One. For though Vandermark always has been known as a fiery saxophonist-clarinetist, he has made some of his most important contributions writing for sizable ensembles. Anyone who heard him lead various incarnations of his Territory Band, which he launched with the MacArthur Fellowship funds in 2000, knows that he can write with a degree of subtlety, understatement and even translucency of sound not routinely associated with the jazz avant-garde.
Considering that Audio One features such significant instrumentalists as vibist Adasiewicz, cornetist Josh Berman, trombonist Jeb Bishop and violist Jen Paulson, the sonic possibilities are rich.
"I love writing for large groups," says Vandermark. "To have something based at home with such great players – after doing the Midwest School stuff in March at the Green Mill – it kind of came to me: This is crazy. These players are so great, they've invested in the idea of working together, why not work on original music for this group? … I'm just trying to take advantage of the creative opportunities here."
And then there's the Chicago Reed Quartet, which emerged as Vandermark and a fellow musical adventurer, Chicago saxophonist Dave Rempis, were trying to think of ventures they could create after the widely acclaimed Vandermark 5 ended its tenure in 2010.
"We started thinking we really should do a small-group project again, and we tried to figure something out that might be something new," says Rempis. "And pretty much everything we came up with was pretty much a reincarnation of one band or another we've been in on.
"He came up with the idea of a reed quartet. I resisted, because I'm not a huge fan of saxophones playing together. They often encourage bad habits."
When Rempis declined, Vandermark had to concede "it really is a crazy thing" to feature four saxophones, notwithstanding the legacy of the World Saxophone Quartet and other such ensembles that reigned in the late 1970s and '80s and thereafter.
"When I was in college, there were a lot of saxophone quartets – almost every (major) city had one or two groups like that," recalls Vandermark. "And a lot of that, for my taste, was not very interesting.
"It's always where the saxophone quartet gets modeled after a string quartet, and the hierarchy of those instruments gets applied to the saxophone."

# Ken Vandermark's Back in Town and Playing Hard
Ken Vandermark, a Chicago-based saxophonist and MacArthur Fellow, has returned to the city for an extended period after years of global touring. Known for his innovative contributions to jazz and experimental music, Vandermark has been anchoring himself in Chicago for January and February 2012, focusing on new creative projects.
## Return to Chicago
After decades of prolific recording and international performances, Vandermark is leveraging his time at home to develop new work and engage Chicago audiences. "To be home for almost three months... it's unusual for me," he notes, emphasizing the rarity of his at-home focus since the 1990s.
## New Projects in Chicago
Vandermark's winter residency features several high-profile engagements:
- **Audio One**: Premiering at the Green Mill this weekend, this 10-piece ensemble includes members of Vandermark’s *Midwest School* band plus vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz. Unlike previous *Midwest School* performances (which drew from repertoires by Roscoe Mitchell, Anthony Braxton, etc.), this project will showcase new original compositions by Vandermark.
- **Chicago Reed Quartet**: Beginning February at Elastic, this quartet features Vandermark alongside Dave Rempis, Nick Mazzarella, and Mars Williams. Rempis jokes about the unconventional "four saxophones" format, recalling the "uninspiring" era of saxophone quartets modeled after string quartets. Vandermark acknowledges the challenge but sees creative potential.
- **Caffeine and Solo Sets**: The avant-garde group *Caffeine*, revitalized after former incarnations in the 1990s, will also perform, as will Vandermark in solo formats.
## Creative Process and Stabilization
Vandermark notes the value of being at home: "The stability of the framework at home has allowed me to focus more deeply on certain aspects of composing." While he often writes on the road, extended periods at home enable deeper engagement with composition.
## Audio One and Collaborative Vision
Audio One represents a significant undertaking, featuring collaborator Jason Adasiewicz (vibes), Josh Berman (cornet), Jeb Bishop (trombone), and Jen Paulson (viola). Vandermark highlights his passion for large-ensemble writing, referencing his *Territory Band* work post-1999 MacArthur grant. "To have something based at home with such great players... after doing the *Midwest School* stuff in March, it kind of came to me: This is crazy."
## Chicago Reed Quartet: Origins and Challenges
The quartet emerged from discussions between Vandermark and Dave Rempis after dissolving *Vandermark 5* in 2010. Rempis initially resisted the saxophone-heavy line-up, citing skepticism around sax quartets. Vandermark admits: "When I was in college, there were a lot of saxophone quartets... and a lot of that, for my taste, was not very interesting." The group navigates this history by experimenting with non-traditional structures.

## Audio One: A New Ensemble
Audio One marks Vandermark's first work as a composer for a large ensemble since his Territory Band projects, which began with MacArthur Fellowship support in 2000. The group includes all members of his earlier Midwest School band plus vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz. Unlike Midwest School, which focused on works by past avant-garde icons (e.g., Roscoe Mitchell, Anthony Braxton), Audio One will premiere Vandermark's compositions.
> "I love writing for large groups," says Vandermark. "The stability of the framework at home has allowed me to focus more deeply on composing, which is just impossible when I'm touring."
Audio One's lineup—featuring vibist Adasiewicz, cornetist Josh Berman, trombonist Jeb Bishop, and violist Jen Paulson—promises rich sonic possibilities.
---
## The Chicago Reed Quartet
The Chicago Reed Quartet emerged after Vandermark and fellow saxophonist Dave Rempis, following the 2010 end of the acclaimed Vandermark 5, sought fresh collaborations. The new group's four-saxophone format initially faced skepticism from Rempis, who recalled:
> "When I was in college, there were a lot of saxophone quartets – almost every city had one or two groups like that. And a lot of that, for my taste, was not very interesting. It's always where the saxophone quartet gets modeled after a string quartet."
Vandermark's response:
> "This is a different approach. It's not about hierarchy—it's about collective invention."
---
## Upcoming Engagements
- **Green Mill**: Audio One's premiere weekend
- **Elastic (weekly)**: Chicago Reed Quartet (ongoing through February)
- **Caffeine**: Revival of the 1990s free-improvisation group
- **Solo sets**: Multiple appearances highlighting Vandermark's versatility
Vandermark's winter residency in Chicago offers an unparalleled opportunity to experience the protean musician's full range, from large ensemble compositions to intimate collaborations.

Despite his worldwide reputation, Vandermark has recently returned to Chicago, marking an unusual pause in his nomadic schedule.

Vandermark explains, *“To be home for almost three months… it's unusual for me.”* After years of European focus, he’s channeling his energy into Chicago music scenes. This period includes:
- **Audio One**: A new ensemble of 10 prominent instrumentalists, premiering original scores by Vandermark.
- **Chicago Reed Quartet**: A weekly engagement starting February 1 at Elastic, featuring Dave Rempis, Nick Mazzarella, and Mars Williams.
- Revivals of his 1990s free-improvisation group **Caffeine** and solo performances.
## Audio One: Expanding Collective Sound
> *“I love writing for large groups. To have something based at home with such great players…”*
Audio One builds on Vandermark’s Territory Band legacy, showcasing his compositional depth. The ensemble includes vibraphonist **Jason Adasiewicz**, cornetist **Josh Berman**, trombonist **Jeb Bishop**, and violist **Jen Paulson**. Vandermark views this as an opportunity to explore original music after previous collaborations with works by Roscoe Mitchell and Julius Hemphill.
## Chicago Reed Quartet: Reimagining the Saxophone Ensemble
The quartet emerged from a creative partnership with saxophonist **Dave Rempis**, rethinking small-group dynamics. Rempis humorously admitted initial skepticism: *“I'm not a huge fan of saxophones playing together.”* Vandermark drew inspiration from college-era saxophone quartets but aimed to break free from traditional string-quartet hierarchies.
## Compositional Process and Creative Stability
With increased time at home, Vandermark emphasizes deepened focus on composition:
> *“The stability of the framework at home has allowed me to focus more deeply on certain aspects of composing…”*
This residency highlights his ability to balance improvisation with structured musical language, a rarity in the jazz avant-garde.
## Reflections on Innovation
Vandermark’s career reflects a lifelong pursuit of bold sonic experimentation. From the **Midwest School** to **Audio One**, his work consistently challenges conventions. As Chicago audiences embrace this homecoming, the city becomes a canvas for his most ambitious projects yet.

# Ken Vandermark’s Back in Town and Playing Hard
![Ken Vandermark plays the saxophone at the Green Mill in Chicago. (Nuccio DiNuzzo / Chicago Tribune / February 5, 2011)]
For the past couple of decades, Chicago saxophonist Ken Vandermark has been racing around the globe, prolifically recording, performing and generating provocative new ideas in music. His innovative work and seemingly inexhaustible efforts won him a MacArthur Fellowship in 1999 and an ever-growing audience of listeners who value daring sounds in jazz.
So it comes as something of a surprise to see that Vandermark has anchored himself back home in Chicago for January and February, a significant pause in his worldwide travels.
> “To be home for almost three months – because I was around for most of December, too, aside from a few really short trips – it’s unusual for me,” acknowledges Vandermark, 49. “I’m trying to develop some stuff in Chicago, after being in Europe so much for so many years and focusing really on everything that was happening there.”
Indeed, though Vandermark isn’t spending this season on planes and trains, he has applied his famously galvanic energy to bringing new music to Chicago stages.
## Audio One
This weekend at the Green Mill, Vandermark will unveil one of his most ambitious efforts to date: **Audio One**, a gathering of 10 instrumentalists of considerable reputation and achievement. Audio One features all the personnel that staffed Vandermark’s brawny, brainy Midwest School band, plus vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz. But this time the extended ensemble will be premiering **new scores by Vandermark**, rather than the works of Roscoe Mitchell, Anthony Braxton, Henry Threadgill and Julius Hemphill that formed Midwest School’s repertory.
Considering the presence of such significant instrumentalists, the sonic possibilities are rich:
- Jason Adasiewicz (vibraphone)
- Josh Berman (cornet)
- Jeb Bishop (trombone)
- Jen Paulson (viola)
- …and the rest of the Midwest School lineup
> “I love writing for large groups,” says Vandermark. “To have something based at home with such great players … these players are so great, they’ve invested in the idea of working together, why not work on original music for this group? … I’m just trying to take advantage of the creative opportunities here.”
## Chicago Reed Quartet
Starting Tuesday, Vandermark will play a weekly engagement through February at Elastic on North Milwaukee Avenue with the **Chicago Reed Quartet**—himself alongside Dave Rempis, Nick Mazzarella and Mars Williams. Each is a formidable player, and the format recalls the legacy of reed ensembles while staking out fresh territory.
> “We started thinking we really should do a small-group project again … and pretty much everything we came up with was a reincarnation of one band or another we’ve been in,” says Rempis.
>
> “He came up with the idea of a reed quartet. I resisted, because I’m not a huge fan of saxophones playing together … When I was in college, there were a lot of saxophone quartets … and a lot of that, for my taste, was not very interesting.”
Vandermark concedes that such a configuration is “crazy,” yet he’s eager to revisit and reshape the saxophone-quartet tradition.
## Other Projects and Composing at Home
- **Rejuvenated Caffeine**: A re-formation of the free-improvisation group Vandermark helped power in the 1990s.
- **Solo sets** and other collaborative performances.
To fuel all this activity, Vandermark has been spending hours every day in Chicago composing scores—a luxury he hasn’t enjoyed in a long time.
> “The stability of the framework at home has allowed me to focus more deeply on certain aspects of composing, which is just impossible when I’m touring.”

**9:02 PM, Mar. 22, 2013**
*Filed Under*
The following often-quoted but unverified passages—**"Why Democracies Fail"** and **"Fatal Sequence"**—have been widely cited in political discourse over the past 50 years.
The author argues that these reflections are especially pertinent today, given the current state of American politics:
> **"Why Democracies Fail:**
> *'A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts ...'*
"Fatal Sequence" is referenced as another key unverified quotation, though its full text is not provided here.
The admonition about self-serving voting behaviors highlights longstanding concerns about democratic sustainability under structural incentives.

image for Brown Announces EU Withdrawal - Heath "Livid"
Amid scenes of wild jubilation today, Britain at last confirmed that it was to withdraw from the EU.
The Prime Minister Gordon Brown, speaking from the steps of No.10, made the announcement to cheering crowds, that were obviously kept several miles away.
"Now, we can really get down to it. No more paying the French not to farm. No more Polish immigrants. No more silly EU working time directives or straight cucumber regulations. We can finally become the Police State that I, sorry we, always wanted to be. I can also announce that as we are no longer paying into the EU coffers, the Chancellor will be making a statement in the House later today, saying that taxes will probably stay the same, or slightly higher, for at least the life of this Parliament. This is good news, and will probably save 200,000 lives over the next 10 years. Our thanks go out to Neil Kinnock, who brokered the deal, which will only cost 135 trillion pounds over the next 22 years."
Edward Heath, who is still waiting for the call to be President of the EU, was said to be "livid" at the deal, and has called for his memoirs to be taken off the shelves at WH Smith.
Margaret Thatcher, who is now suffering from dementia, speaking from her bed at Handbag Mansion, said that it was a poor do when a Labour Government does something right for once, and called for the immediate resignation of the Chairman of the Local Council, who hadn't personally emptied her wheely-bin this week.
Local MP Sir Init Forthemoney was said to be "Too upset" to speak, but did manage to put the money in his wallet.
Gordon Brown denied that the UK had now declared war on France, who have surrendered anyway.

Amid scenes of wild jubilation today, Britain at last confirmed that it was to withdraw from the EU. The Prime Minister Gordon Brown, speaking from the steps of No.10, made the announcement to cheering crowds, that were obviously kept several miles away.
**Gordon Brown:**
"Now, we can really get down to it. No more paying the French not to farm. No more Polish immigrants. No more silly EU working time directives or straight cucumber regulations. We can finally become the Police State that I, sorry we, always wanted to be. I can also announce that as we are no longer paying into the EU coffers, the Chancellor will be making a statement in the House later today, saying that taxes will probably stay the same, or slightly higher, for at least the life of this Parliament. This is good news, and will probably save 200,000 lives over the next 10 years. Our thanks go out to Neil Kinnock, who brokered the deal, which will only cost 135 trillion pounds over the next 22 years."
**Edward Heath:**
Still awaiting the call to be President of the EU, was said to be "livid" at the deal and has called for his memoirs to be taken off the shelves at WH Smith.
**Margaret Thatcher:**
Who is now suffering from dementia, speaking from her bed at Handbag Mansion, said that it was a poor do when a Labour Government does something right for once, and called for the immediate resignation of the Chairman of the Local Council, who hadn't personally emptied her wheely-bin this week.
**Local MP Sir Init Forthemoney:**
Was said to be "Too upset" to speak, but did manage to put the money in his wallet.
Gordon Brown denied that the UK had now declared war on France, who have surrendered anyway.

Temptalia Review
Rocker is a darkened brown-based red with subtle shimmer. I’m not quite sure what the finish is–I had the original listed as a matte. Will inquire! Nonetheless, it yields opaque color coverage with very subtle shimmer. shu uemura Rouge Luster is slightly more orange. MAC Such Flare! is a bit lighter, more orange than brown. MAC Extended Play has more brown in it. MAC Unknown Pleasures is a bit darker. Rimmel Metallic Seduction and Make Up For Ever #48 are darker.

Mozilla unfurls first mobile Firefox
'Fennec' on Maemo
• alert
• submit to reddit
Intelligent flash storage arrays
Mozilla has officially released the first mobile Firefox, a condensed version of the popular open-source browser that runs on Nokia's Maemo platform.
Codenamed 'Fennec,' Firefox 1.0 for Maemo was previously available only as a beta. Mozilla calls this the first mobile web browser to accomodate add-ons - long a staple of the Firefox desktop browser. More than 40 add-ons are already available for the new mobile platform, including AdBlock Plus, the most famous of Firefox extensions.
The inaugural mobile Firefox also offers Mozilla's Awesome Bar, a way of quickly returning to sites you've visited in the past; the new Weave Sync tool, for synchronizing bookmarks and other Firefox settings across multiple machines; and, yes, those familiar Firefox tabs.
Two days ago, when it pushed out a third release candidate for Firefox mobile 1.0, Mozilla disabled support for an Adobe plug-in, saying it had "degraded the performance of the browser to the point where it didn't meet our standards." Instead, the open sourcers urge you to install a YouTube Enabler add-on that will at least let you watch Googlevideos on the browser.
The new browser runs on Maemo 5, which means your only smartphone option is the Nokia N900. It will also run on the N810 internet tablet. You can download the browser here.
Mozilla is currently alpha testing a version of Fennec for Windows Mobile, and it has prototyped Firefox browsers for Google's Android platform. But it has no intention of building anything for the iPhone. Apple, you see, doesn't allow interpreted code on the Jesus Phone, and Mozilla won't waste time trying to put Firefox where it's "not wanted." ®

# Mozilla Unfurls First Mobile Firefox
Mozilla has officially released the first mobile Firefox, a condensed version of the popular open-source browser that runs on Nokia's Maemo platform. Codenamed **'Fennec'**, Firefox 1.0 for Maemo was previously available only as a beta.

The new browser runs on **Maemo 5**, requiring users to have a **Nokia N900 smartphone** or **N810 internet tablet**. Download options are available via Mozilla's website.
Mozilla is currently alpha testing a version of *Fennec* for **Windows Mobile** and has prototyped Firefox support for **Google's Android platform**. However, the company has no plans to build a version for the **iPhone**, citing Apple's restrictions on interpreted code.
---
## Additional Context

- **Cross-Platform Development**: Firefox for Android and Windows Mobile remain in early stages, but no iOS version is planned.

The browser runs on Maemo 5, limiting smartphone options to the Nokia N900, though it also supports the N810 internet tablet. Mozilla is alpha-testing a Windows Mobile version and has prototyped Android versions, but explicitly plans no support for Apple's iPhone due to Apple's restrictions on interpreted code.

# Mozilla Unfurls First Mobile Firefox
## 'Fennec' on Maemo
Mozilla has officially launched **Firefox Mobile 1.0** (codenamed *Fennec*), a first-of-its-kind mobile web browser optimized for Nokia's **Maemo 5 platform**. Below are key details about the release and its implications:
---
### Key Features
- **Add-on Support**: First mobile browser to support Firefox extensions. Over 40 add-ons already available, including *AdBlock Plus*.
- **Awesome Bar**: Quick access to previously visited sites.
- **Weave Sync**: Synchronizes bookmarks and settings across devices.
- **Tabbed Browsing**: Maintains Firefox's signature tab interface.
---
### Technical Notes
- Discontinued Adobe plugin support for improving performance. Mozilla recommends the *YouTube Enabler* add-on for Google video playback.
- Compatible with:
- **Nokia N900** smartphone
- **Nokia N810** internet tablet
---
### Roadmap & Limitations
- **Prototyping Phases**:
- Alpha testing for **Windows Mobile** version.
- Prototype for **Android** under development.
- **Exclusions**:
- *No plans for an iPhone port*. Mozilla cites Apple's prohibition of interpreted code as a barrier.
---
### Additional Context
Mozilla's open-source stance contrasts with Apple's closed ecosystem, as highlighted in statements regarding the iPhone.
---
## Whitepapers
- **Intelligent Flash Storage Arrays**
*Tegile's IntelliFlash for efficient storage management*.
- **Forging a New Future with Identity Relationship Management**
*ForgeRock's IRM for enterprise engagement*.
- **Why Cloud Backup?**
*Combining cloud and disk-based solutions for robust recovery*.

# Mozilla unfurls first mobile Firefox
## 'Fennec' on Maemo
Mozilla has officially released the first mobile Firefox, a condensed version of the popular open-source browser that runs on Nokia’s Maemo platform.
Codenamed **'Fennec,'** Firefox 1.0 for Maemo was previously available only as a beta. Mozilla calls this the first mobile web browser to accommodate add-ons – long a staple of the Firefox desktop browser. More than 40 add-ons are already available for the new mobile platform, including **AdBlock Plus**, the most famous of Firefox extensions.
The inaugural mobile Firefox also offers:
- **Mozilla’s Awesome Bar**, a way of quickly returning to sites you’ve visited in the past
- the new **Weave Sync** tool, for synchronizing bookmarks and other Firefox settings across multiple machines
- familiar **Firefox tabs**
Two days ago, when it pushed out a third release candidate for Firefox mobile 1.0, Mozilla disabled support for an Adobe plug-in, saying it had “degraded the performance of the browser to the point where it didn’t meet our standards.” Instead, the open sourcers urge you to install a **YouTube Enabler** add-on that will at least let you watch Googlevideos on the browser.
The new browser runs on Maemo 5, which means your only smartphone option is the **Nokia N900**. It will also run on the **N810 internet tablet**. You can download the browser here.
Mozilla is currently alpha testing a version of Fennec for Windows Mobile, and it has prototyped Firefox browsers for Google’s Android platform. But it has no intention of building anything for the iPhone. Apple, you see, doesn’t allow interpreted code on the Jesus Phone, and Mozilla won’t waste time trying to put Firefox where it’s “not wanted.” ®

It's finally come down to that my POS computer will no longer play videos for my kid that's it's played hundreds of times already. First it will play only the sound, then the Player says I don't have the right codec, then it will just play the video with no sound. Then after tens of tries it will play it. Then after playing a couple times, it will close on it's own because of a problem.
Making it known now.... Apple, you will have a little more revenue this week, because I can't stand it anymore!! banghead banghead banghead banghead banghead banghead banghead

Quoting Boeing Nut (Thread starter):
I've had a few people actually give me their computers because they were so fed up with them. I'm known as the "computer guy" in the neighborhood, so it's usually one of those "if you can find a use for it, you can have it" situations.
Every software problem (well, 99% of them) can be solved by a re-format and a fresh install of Windows. I do that, and everything is fine. I ask people if they want their computer back, but they refuse, probably because of the greif that box represents.
So what do I do with them after that? Sell them, of course! Wink

Whatever you do, don't give the computer away. It will be MUCH more satisfying to take a sledge hammer to it. Or if you happen to have access to a hatchback car, SUV, or pickup truck, you can sit in the back and throw the computer out while doing 75 mph. Big grin
It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems with just potatoes.

I've also heard this. Althought I've also heard there are various versions avaliable suited to the home user. One thing against linux is lack of third party support for some devices.

Linux is for you if you are or want to become a Unix system administrator, if you only need a server or if you absolutely have to save every single cent no matter the time it will cost you in return. In all other cases, I wouldn't recommend it.

PC's are nothing but a complete waste of time
- You but them at a stupid price
- They work for a week and then something always goes wrong with them
- You get 'Illegal operation'.
- They 'crash'
- You end up calling the help line which is 50 per min
- After they fix it, something else goes wrong
- Hard drive fails, you loose all your work
- Cooler fan fails, you PC ends up either constantly re-starting or in the end blows up
- You buy printers scanners etc, all state 'Easy set up', yet after a month, you still trying to get it to work
So what is the point?

No, but it is not a "set it and forget it" system yet. People would nothave as much problems with Windows, if they would just maintain it.

True, many companies do not make the source code for their drivers freely available. Everything in Linux, is released under the GNU and the source code is freely available to anyone who wants it.

I didn't say you couldn't use it as your desktop system; Just that it takes a lot of dedication and expertise.
Working with Linux is part of my job, and for servers it is a really excellent infrastructure system.
But for my desktop I'm glad I don't have to put up with it. With MacOS X I have all the Unix I want - I can even run pretty much everything I'd run on the Linux servers otherwise - just without the hassle and the perpetual babying.
I wouldn't absolutely dissuade people from using Linux as their primary system - I'd just put great emphasis on them knowing what they're getting themselves into.
Most people are a lot better served with a Mac. Windows has neither the industrial robustness and power of Linux nor the ease of use of MacOS X, so there are fewer and fewer reasons to actually stick with it - gaming may be an exception, but a Mac running the occasional Windows game once in a while would perfectly suffice for almost everybody.

I've also heard there are various versions avaliable suited to the home user.
Check out either Mandriva 2006 or Suse 10.1 Desktop. Both are adequately suited to the home user.
Quoting Klaus (Reply 7):
Linux is for you if you are or want to become a Unix system administrator, if you only need a server or if you absolutely have to save every single cent no matter the time it will cost you in return. In all other cases, I wouldn't recommend it.
I know we've had this discussion before, Klaus, but I still disagree with you, especially with the two distributions I mentioned above. They are both incredibly easy to install, come with some great support and help options, and autodetect most common hardware devices around. With emulators such as CrossOver and W.I.N.E., users can run most common Windows applications (such as Office or most Adobe products) without hassle, and can easily use the system without needing to be an expert. Heck, if I can get my mother-in-law to use it for Internet, email, and basic office tasks, then anyone who can control a mouse can use it.
To DLKAPA and Bill142, I would suggest checking out 'Knoppix'. It's a free Linux distribution that you boot to from CD, so you don't need to install anything. It's great for checking things out, see if you like it, and get used to the difference between Windows and Linux. If you don't find it PM me and I'll send you a link to my FTP server where you can download it.

I agree 100%. When asked, I recommend a Mac. Macs just work, and that is why I love them. The only thing that a Mac has that I do not like is proprietary hardware. I'll love OS X forever when it comes out for x86, right now it is Ubuntu for me.
Although, I am not a big fan of either SuSE or Mandriva, I have to agree with IFEMaster. Some linux distros have come very close to being home-user friendly. I don't think I would be comfy giving it to my folks yet. Most distros have live-CD versions of their products available for download.
SuSE, Ubuntu, Mandriva, Knoppix, Gentoo all have live-Cd versions of their distro. checkout distrowatch

Unless you use VLC on OSX, you may find yourself in the same boat - Quicktime Player is just as bad as Windows Media Player and isnt something I would ever use.

I have limited experience with Macs, am a loyal Windows based user, but will buy a Mac soon just to see what it's all about.
What I like about my Windows machines is that if something goes wrong, I can troubleshoot and fix it myself. It seems that if something goes wrong with a Mac product, your first step is to stand in line at the Apple Store for an hour, have the Apple dude tell you your hardware needs to be replaced, go through all of these printouts and receipts he gives you, mail off your hardware, culminating in a new machine, at which point the process starts over.

I have to agree with MigFan about the Genius Bar at the Apple Store. I make my appointment. Two years ago I had a video card failure on a 17" i-mac. Took it in to the store. Dropped it off. That afternoon it was repaired and worked faithfully until sold to a friend a year later. Last month, my partner's 15" ibook slide of a pile of magazines and then would not boot. Logic Board problem. Eventhough I admitted to it being dropped, it was submitted as an extended warranty repair. They handled all shipping and coordination. The machine was back in 8 days, all data secure. Push the on-button and voila operating just fine.
And the support.apple.com has a lot of info that has helped me solve several minor software questions.
Overall all staff at the Apple retail outlets is very informed about products, combinations and ideas. I'm always happy with the recommendations that are made and the company stands behind errors with their return policy.

# User Frustration with Windows and Transition to Alternatives
---
## **Main Post**
Boeing Nut expresses frustration with a Windows computer refusing to play videos for their child, citing inconsistent performance, crashes, and exasperation. Concludes with a decision to switch to Apple.
> *"Making it known now... Apple, you will have a little more revenue this week, because I can’t stand it anymore!"*
---
## **Discussion Overview**
### **Linux as an Alternative**
- **Queso** and **Migfan** suggest Linux, noting distributions like **Mandriva** and **Knoppix** for user-friendliness.
- **Klaus** cautions that Linux is better suited for servers or advanced users due to steeper learning curve and driver compatibility issues.
### **Switching to macOS**
- **AC773** humorously notes people give up their PCs for "easy money."
- **Cory6188** and **Halls120** share positive experiences with macOS’s reliability and ease of use.
- **Tootallsd** highlights Apple’s support:
> *"Genius Bar saved my iMac with hardware issues; all data secure and repaired quickly."*
### **Software Solutions**
- **RichardPrice** recommends **VLC** as a universal media player for codec issues.
> *"VLC is free and the best media player."*
### **Transitioning from Windows**
- **BaylorAirBear** asks about compatibility and support.
- **Klaus** and **Migfan** acknowledge differences but note macOS’s Unix foundation and compatibility with many Windows apps via tools like **Parallels** or **Wine**.
---
## **Community Insights**
- **Linux**: User-friendliness has improved (e.g., Ubuntu, KDE), but still requires technical knowhow.
- **macOS**: Praised for stability and support, though pricey.
- **Windows Critique**: Frustrations over driver conflicts, crashes, and customer service.

Every software problem (well, 99% of them) can be solved by a re-format and a fresh install of Windows. I do that, and everything is fine. I ask people if they want their computer back, but they refuse, probably because of the greif that box represents.
So what do I do with them after that? Sell them, of course! Wink

Whatever you do, don't give the computer away. It will be MUCH more satisfying to take a sledge hammer to it. Or if you happen to have access to a hatchback car, SUV, or pickup truck, you can sit in the back and throw the computer out while doing 75 mph. Big grin

I'm known as the "computer guy" in the neighborhood, so it's usually one of those "if you can find a use for it, you can have it" situations.
Every software problem (well, 99% of them) can be solved by a re-format and a fresh install of Windows. I do that, and everything is fine. I ask people if they want their computer back, but they refuse, probably because of the grief that box represents.
So what do I do with them after that? Sell them, of course! wink
Easy money, people. mischievous

Whatever you do, don't give the computer away. It will be MUCH more satisfying to take a sledge hammer to it. Or if you happen to have access to a hatchback car, SUV, or pickup truck, you can sit in the back and throw the computer out while doing 75 mph. Big grin

I've also heard this. Although I've also heard there are various versions available suited to the home user. One thing against Linux is lack of third party support for some devices.

PCs are nothing but a complete waste of time:
- You buy them at a stupid price
- They work for a week and then something always goes wrong with them
- You get “Illegal operation”
- They “crash”
- You end up calling the helpline which is 50 ¢ per min
- After they fix it, something else goes wrong
- Hard drive fails, you lose all your work
- Cooler fan fails, your PC ends up either constantly restarting or in the end blows up
- You buy printers, scanners, etc., all state “Easy set up”, yet after a month, you’re still trying to get it to work
So what is the point?

No, but it is not a “set it and forget it” system yet. People would not have as much problems with Windows, if they would just maintain it.

True, many companies do not make the source code for their drivers freely available. Everything in Linux is released under the GNU and the source code is freely available to anyone who wants it.

I didn’t say you couldn’t use it as your desktop system; just that it takes a lot of dedication and expertise.
Working with Linux is part of my job, and for servers it is a really excellent infrastructure system.
But for my desktop I’m glad I don’t have to put up with it. With Mac OS X I have all the Unix I want – I can even run pretty much everything I’d run on the Linux servers otherwise – just without the hassle and the perpetual babying.
I wouldn’t absolutely dissuade people from using Linux as their primary system – I’d just put great emphasis on them knowing what they’re getting themselves into.
Most people are a lot better served with a Mac. Windows has neither the industrial robustness and power of Linux nor the ease of use of Mac OS X, so there are fewer and fewer reasons to actually stick with it – gaming may be an exception, but a Mac running the occasional Windows game once in a while would perfectly suffice for almost everybody.

Check out either Mandriva 2006 or SUSE 10.1 Desktop. Both are adequately suited to the home user.
> Quoting Klaus (Reply 7):
> Linux is for you if you are or want to become a Unix system administrator…
I know we’ve had this discussion before, Klaus, but I still disagree with you, especially with the two distributions I mentioned above. They are both incredibly easy to install, come with some great support and help options, and autodetect most common hardware devices around. With emulators such as CrossOver and W.I.N.E., users can run most common Windows applications (such as Office or most Adobe products) without hassle, and can easily use the system without needing to be an expert. Heck, if I can get my mother-in-law to use it for Internet, email, and basic office tasks, then anyone who can control a mouse can use it.
To DLKAPA and Bill142, I would suggest checking out **Knoppix**. It’s a free Linux distribution that you boot from CD, so you don’t need to install anything. It’s great for checking things out, seeing if you like it, and getting used to the difference between Windows and Linux. If you don’t find it PM me and I’ll send you a link to my FTP server where you can download it.

I agree 100%. When asked, I recommend a Mac. Macs just work, and that is why I love them. The only thing that a Mac has that I do not like is proprietary hardware. I’ll love OS X forever when it comes out for x86, right now it is Ubuntu for me.
Although I am not a big fan of either SUSE or Mandriva, I have to agree with IFEMaster. Some Linux distros have come very close to being home-user friendly. I don’t think I would be comfortable giving it to my folks yet. Most distros have live-CD versions of their products available for download:
- SUSE
- Ubuntu
- Mandriva
- Knoppix
- Gentoo
…all have live-CD versions. Check out DistroWatch.

Unless you use VLC on OS X, you may find yourself in the same boat – QuickTime Player is just as bad as Windows Media Player and isn’t something I would ever use.

I have limited experience with Macs, am a loyal Windows-based user, but will buy a Mac soon just to see what it’s all about.
What I like about my Windows machines is that if something goes wrong, I can troubleshoot and fix it myself. It seems that if something goes wrong with a Mac product, your first step is to stand in line at the Apple Store for an hour, have the Apple dude tell you your hardware needs to be replaced, go through all of these printouts and receipts he gives you, mail off your hardware, culminating in a new machine, at which point the process starts over.
What say you?

You could do that if you want, but the chances of you having to do so are lesser than with Windows. The staff at the Apple Stores are actually quite knowledgeable. They beat hands-down the folks at Best Buy or Circuit City. The dudes at those places just want to direct you to the Geek Squad, please. The Mac community was an early player in the field of user-driven support.

I have to agree with MigFan about the Genius Bar at the Apple Store. I make my appointment. Two years ago I had a video card failure on a 17″ iMac. Took it into the store. Dropped it off. That afternoon it was repaired and worked faithfully until sold to a friend a year later. Last month, my partner’s 15″ iBook slid off a pile of magazines and then would not boot. Logic board problem. Even though I admitted to it being dropped, it was submitted as an extended warranty repair. They handled all shipping and coordination. The machine was back in 8 days, all data secure. Push the on-button and voilà—operating just fine.
And support.apple.com has a lot of info that has helped me solve several minor software questions.
Overall all staff at the Apple retail outlets is very informed about products, combinations, and ideas. I’m always happy with the recommendations that are made and the company stands behind errors with their return policy.

Thanks, Mig and Toot. 😊
I also have a question regarding the OS. As I said, I’m a loyal Windows user, and have been since the early ’90s. Do you think I would find the transition to a Mac platform upfront agreeable?
Thanks,

Re: Looking for a cheap but good camera
@family:
FinePix S2950 takes 4 AA batteries. Im thinking of buying 8 AA eneloops with the charger ($25). Idea is to have 4 in the camera and 4 in standby for when the ones in the camera run out, then switch and the put the other to charge. Also will get a 8gb class 10 SDHC card ($15) and the camera ($152) putting the total close to $200 as you mentioned. I guess thats fine given that we like the camera (3 inch screen with 460k dots is nice i guess) and have watched several youtube videos of it.
I dont think we will use HD video (or at least not interested in it right now)
Yes I saw this on a youtube video about pressing the shutter half-way to let the camera focus and then pressing it all the way down to snap the pic. I didnt know about this and I agree, probably our bad experiences have been due to operator ignorance.
@for math comment: the places i been accepted have all offered tuition waiver and a TA with stipend (also a fellowship at one place) so im not paying for the PhD. I guess it all comes from grants so in the grand scheme of things, the govt is indeed paying for it.
Thanks for the advise. So you think I will be good to go with the FinePix S2950?

Here's my only concern with that type of P&S.
said by Moropo See Profile
The use of the camera will be mainly to take pictures when we go out on the weekends with a group of friends.
I've got a similar Fulji from many years ago. It'll fit in a larger jacket pocket, but certainly not in a shirt pocket or the wife's small purse. Will you still be inclined to take it with you? It's something to seriously consider.

Yes we will buy a case to hang from the neck if it doesnt come with one. We thought of this and considered it no problem.

# Discussion: Camera Purchase Advice (FinePix S2950)
**Moropo**
Considering purchasing a FinePix S2950 camera with the following setup:
- **8 AA eneloops** (4 in camera, 4 in standby) and a charger ($25 total)
- **8GB Class 10 SDHC card** ($15)
- **Camera cost**: $152
- **Total estimate**: ~$200
**Rationale**:
- 3" screen with 460k dots found appealing
- Most use case: weekend photo outings with friends
- No immediate need for HD video
- Technical tip: "Half-press shutter for focus, then fully press to capture"
- Self-identified as Mathematics PhD candidate (accepted at multiple programs)
**Follow-up Response**:
- Planning to add a neck-hanging case if not included with the camera
---
**Jodokast96**
**Concern**:
- Camera size (not pocket-friendly for purses or shirt pockets)
- Portability may reduce usability for routine outings
Approves of the technical approach but emphasizes practicality in transport/accessibility.

Chamber pegs Ayala as new CEO
Retired California Highway Patrol Commander Mike Ayala has been named the new chief executive officer of the Tuolumne County Chamber of Commerce.
Ayala, 59, accepted the position Wednesday following the resignation of former CEO George Segarini, who held the position for 17 years.
The Tuolumne County Chamber of Commerce is a nonprofit organization that provides advocacy and support for local businesses.
“The board of directors is pleased that Mike has accepted our offer and we look forward to working with him as the new CEO of Tuolumne County Chamber of Commerce,” board chairwoman Margaret Davis said in a statement.
“I’m excited to have the opportunity to serve the citizens and businesses of Tuolumne County in this new role,” Ayala said.
Ayala said he feels the appointment makes his time in Tuolumne County come “full circle,” in reference to his time with the CHP, where he worked to make the public aware of services the agency provides.
In his post as CEO, Ayala will work to keep people and businesses connected to the chamber. He said he also looks forward to working with local government to promote business.
Ayala retired as commander of the Jamestown CHP office in 2009 after a nearly 30-year career with the agency. He spent more than 10 years in the Jamestown office.
Ayala was raised in San Bruno and then lived in Los Angeles for 10 years. He spent about 18 years in Modesto and moved to Sonora in 1999.
He started as an officer for Westminster CHP in the early 1980s. His career then took him through Hayward, Los Banos, Modesto, Santa Ana, back to Los Banos, Sacramento, Merced, Los Banos for a third time as commander, and finally to Jamestown.
Ayala is a member of Sierra Bible Church, the Kiwanis Club and has been a member and volunteer with the Chamber of Commerce since 1999.
He was a member of the 1999-2000 Tuolumne County Leadership Class and served on the Chamber’s Transportation Committee and the Population 2010 Working Group.
Ayala also volunteered with the Local Organizing Committee for the Amgen Tour Stage 4 in Sonora. He is the chairman of the Tuolumne County Transportation Council and president of the Belleview Oaks Mutual Water Company board of directors.
Ayala and his wife, Nancy, live in Sonora and have been married 39 years. They have two adult daughters and three grandchildren.
He will begin his new post sometime next week.

Avondale unveils yet-to-be-filled industrial complex
January 23, 2013
A mammoth manufacturing and industrial center will soon open in Avondale. Right now there are no tenants for the facility. Developers and the city are confident that is going to change. KJZZ’s Al Macias reports city leaders believe it is another sign of a rebounding economy in the West Valley.

AL MACIAS: The first phase of the center will cover 600,000 square feet. Avondale planners say they needed this space to attract industrial and manufacturing companies. Neighboring cities such as Tolleson and Goodyear have attracted companies such as Amazon and other large retailers. Dan Davis is the development director for the city of Avondale. He says this is the first large scale industrial construction since before the recession.
DAN DAVIS: What that means for us is not only capital investment but also on the backside, the future opportunities for jobs, as tenants come into the building.
MACIAS: The complex is being built by developer Trammel Crow. Even though there are no tenants yet, both the developer and the city believe its location next to Interstate-10 and proximity to Phoenix and Sky Harbor airport will make it attractive to potential clients. The first phase should be completed this spring. Plans also call for another 400,000 square feet to be built in the second phase.

# Japanese Modelling Discussion Group
## Some Info Please on AKUYAKU #1
**January 26, 2007 at 5:38 PM**
**Ken-Overby (Missing-Lynx member)**
From IP: `67.182.131.108`
I just received a 1/72 scale tank model kit labeled: **AKUYAKU #1**
Can anyone identify the anime or source this model is based on, and suggest where I might find more information about it?
I’ve also heard there is a detailed cut-away version of this model (showing interior construction). If anyone knows of a link or resource for this, I’d greatly appreciate it.
Thank you in advance,
*Ken*

**Author:** Ken-Overby
I just got a kit of a 1/72 tank called… AKUYAKU #1
Can anyone out there please tell me what Anime it came from, and where I can find it?
I’m also told that there is a link somewhere showing a cut-away, where the builder did a full interior. Do you know where it might be found?
TIA

SIPC: MF Global Agreements Should Result In 100 Percent Return Of Allowed Securities Customer Property
If Conditions Met and Agreements Approved by the Court, Trustee Anticipates Significant Additional Distributions to Commodities Customers Trading on US, Non-US Exchanges.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Between $500 million and $600 million dollars will be returned to the MF Global Inc. (MFGI) estate under an agreement announced by James W. Giddens, trustee for the Securities Investor Protection Act (SIPA) liquidation of MFGI, and Richard Heis, a joint administrator of MF Global UK Ltd. (MFGUK).
Separately, Giddens and the Chapter 11 Trustee for MF Global Holdings Ltd. (MFGH), Louis J. Freeh, announced that they will resolve all claims between their respective estates.
Once certain conditions are satisfied to make the agreements effective and if approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, Giddens anticipates the agreement between MFGI and MFGUK will result in 100 percent satisfaction of allowed securities customers' claims and significant additional distributions to commodities customers who traded on US and non-US exchanges.
SIPC President Stephen Harbeck said: "These agreements are a major accomplishment that will benefit customers and creditors worldwide. Not only will the agreements with MFGH and MFGUK likely allow for the return of 100 percent of allowed securities customers claims, it will also result in significant distributions to be made to commodities customers. SIPC commends the efforts of Trustee Giddens, Mr. Heis and Mr. Freeh, whose work has yielded agreements in the best interests of all creditors that will minimize legal costs and allow for an expeditious resolution of all open matters."
Harbeck added: "SIPC looks forward to continuing to work with the Trustee and other parties to make sure all conditions are met and the agreements are approved by the Court, so that the distributions of funds to customers can occur."
Full details on the agreements can be found at mfglobaltrustee.com.
ABOUT SIPC
The Securities Investor Protection Corporation is the U.S. investor's first line of defense in the event of the failure of a brokerage firm owing customers cash and securities that are missing from customer accounts. SIPC either acts as trustee or works with an independent court-appointed trustee in a brokerage insolvency case to recover funds.
The statute that created SIPC provides that customers of a failed brokerage firm receive all non-negotiable securities - such as stocks or bonds -- that are already registered in their names or in the process of being registered. At the same time, funds from the SIPC reserve are available to satisfy the remaining claims for customer cash and/or securities held in custody with the broker for up to a maximum of $500,000 per customer. This figure includes a maximum of $250,000 on claims for cash. From the time Congress created it in 1970 through December 2010, SIPC has advanced $ 1.6 billion in order to make possible the recovery of $ 109.3 billion in assets for an estimated 739,000 investors.
All non-media/investor inquiries of SIPC should be directed to asksipc@sipc.org or (202) 371-8300.

• Customers (not just users)
• MongoDB provides agility, scalability, and performance without sacrificing the functionality of relational databases, like full index support and rich queries Indexes: secondary, compound, text search, geospatial, and more
• 3 major trends driving innovation in IT today <br /> <br /> All of them center around minimizing upfront investment and paying for value over time <br /> <br /> Development <br /> Waterfall -- > Agile <br /> Fail fast, fail small <br /> Encourage experimentation <br /> More responsive to the business <br /> <br /> 2. Hardware <br /> Scale Up -- > Scale Out via cloud and commodity architectures <br /> Lower TCO <br /> Better cost visibility <br /> Less upfront investment, risk of wasted capital <br /> <br /> 3. Software <br /> Big License + Maintenance to Open-Source and SaaS <br /> Started with Salesforce.com, Red Hat; now many others following suit <br /> Less upfront investment, risk of wasted capital <br /> Pay for value over time <br />
• MongoDB is aligned with all 3 of these trends – why its seeing such massive adoption in both enterprises and startups <br /> <br /> Development <br /> RDBMS uses fixed schema <br /> MongoDB uses documents instead of tables which have dynamic schemas <br /> Allows teams to get started quickly without lots of upfront planning <br /> To iterate and adapt as they go <br /> To respond to business more quickly <br /> E.g., MetLife built 360-degree view of customers in 3 months because it could iterate on the data model <br /> <br /> 2. Hardware <br /> Scale Up -- > Scale Out via cloud and commodity architectures <br /> RDBMS is built for scale-up <br /> MongoDB is built from the ground for scale out in cloud environments (using data partitioning, i.e., auto-sharding) <br /> E.g., Orange saved £2M by moving to MongoDB and migrating to Amazon Web Services <br /> <br /> 3. Software <br /> Big License + Maintenance to Open-Source and SaaS <br /> MongoDB is open-source. <br /> Community edition is free. <br /> Enterprise edition is charged per server, per year – so investment is spread out over time <br /> E.g., MongoDB can save companies over 50% on TCO in licensing alone (not even including all other savings in terms of hardware and developer productivity)
• This is where MongoDB fits into the existing enterprise IT stack <br /> MongoDB is an operational data store used for online data, in the same way that Oracle is an operational data store. It supports applications that ingest, store, manage and even analyze data in real-time. (Compared to Hadoop and data warehouses, which are used for offline, batch analytical workloads.)
• MongoDB is aligned with strategic IT initiatives – like new apps in mobile, etc.; commodity hardware and cloud computing; Hadoop; and so on <br /> Just like enterprises are focusing now on apps in mobile, SaaS, and social, and spending less time on innovating on legacy apps… <br /> Enterprises are increasingly looking at moving away from Oracle and other proprietary systems to modern data stores like MongoDB to support new app development (and even for migrate legacy applications)
• If GE capitalizes on these changes, it can realize impact to the business <br /> <br /> Enabling New Apps: MetLife built a 360-degree view of its customers in 3 months. Tried for 2 years with RDBMS and was ultimately impossible <br /> Better Customer Experience: eHarmony matches more couples faster -- reduced the time to match singles by 95% by migrating from RDBMS to MongoDB <br /> Faster Time to Market: Salesforce.com accelerated its product roadmap by 12 months <br /> Lower TCO: Tier 1 investment bank saved $40M over 5 years by migrating from RDBMS to MongoDB.
• Numbers are ROUNDED <br /> 71% savings vs. Oracle
• Indeed: #2 just after HTML and ahead of iOS, Android, Hadoop <br /> Jasper: Demand for MongoDB, the document-oriented NoSQL database, saw the biggest spike with over 200% growth in 2011. <br /> 451 Group: Bigger than next 3 or 4 COMBINED; biggest quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year growth (again)

# EMEA Partners Recruitment Webinar
## Customers (not just users)
- MongoDB provides agility, scalability, and performance without sacrificing the functionality of relational databases, like full index support and rich queries
- Indexes: secondary, compound, text search, geospatial, and more
## 3 Major Trends Driving Innovation in IT Today
All of them center around minimizing upfront investment and paying for value over time
1. **Development**
- Waterfall → Agile
- Fail fast, fail small
- Encourage experimentation
- More responsive to the business
2. **Hardware**
- Scale Up → Scale Out via cloud and commodity architectures
- Lower TCO
- Better cost visibility
- Less upfront investment, risk of wasted capital
3. **Software**
- Big License + Maintenance → Open-Source and SaaS
- Started with Salesforce.com, Red Hat; now many others following suit
- Less upfront investment, risk of wasted capital
- Pay for value over time
## MongoDB Alignment with These Trends
1. **Development**
- RDBMS uses fixed schema
- MongoDB uses documents instead of tables with dynamic schemas
- Allows teams to start quickly without lots of upfront planning
- Iterate and adapt as they go
- Respond to business more quickly
- _Example_: MetLife built a 360-degree view of customers in 3 months because it could iterate on the data model
2. **Hardware**
- Scale Up → Scale Out via cloud and commodity architectures
- RDBMS is built for scale-up
- MongoDB is built from the ground up for scale-out in cloud environments (auto-sharding)
- _Example_: Orange saved £2 M by moving to MongoDB and migrating to Amazon Web Services
3. **Software**
- Big License + Maintenance → Open-Source and SaaS
- MongoDB is open-source
- Community edition is free
- Enterprise edition is charged per server, per year—so investment is spread out over time
- _Example_: MongoDB can save companies over 50% on TCO in licensing alone (not including hardware and developer productivity)
## MongoDB in the Enterprise IT Stack
MongoDB is an operational data store used for online data, in the same way that Oracle is an operational data store. It supports applications that ingest, store, manage, and analyze data in real time (compared to Hadoop and data warehouses, which are used for offline, batch analytical workloads).
## Strategic IT Initiatives
MongoDB is aligned with strategic IT initiatives—mobile apps, commodity hardware and cloud computing, Hadoop, and more. Enterprises are increasingly moving away from proprietary systems to modern data stores like MongoDB for new app development and legacy application migration.
## Business Impact Examples
- **Enabling New Apps**: MetLife built a 360-degree view of customers in 3 months (impossible with RDBMS after 2 years)
- **Better Customer Experience**: eHarmony reduced matching time by 95% by migrating from RDBMS to MongoDB
- **Faster Time to Market**: Salesforce.com accelerated its product roadmap by 12 months
- **Lower TCO**: Tier 1 investment bank saved \$40 M over 5 years by migrating from RDBMS to MongoDB
- Numbers are **ROUNDED**
- **71% savings vs. Oracle**
## Market Demand
- **Indeed**: #2 just after HTML and ahead of iOS, Android, Hadoop
- **Jasper**: Demand for MongoDB saw the biggest spike with over 200% growth in 2011
- **451 Group**: Growth bigger than next 3 or 4 combined; biggest quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year growth
## Use Cases
- Customer Data Management (CRM, Biometrics, User Profile Management)
- Product and Asset Catalogs (eCommerce, Inventory Management)
- Social and Collaboration Apps (Social Networks, Feeds, Document Collaboration)
- Mobile Apps (Smartphones and Tablets)
- Content Management (Web CMS, Document Management, Digital Asset Management)
- Internet of Things / M2M (mHealth, Connected Home, Smart Meters)
- Security and Fraud Apps (Fraud Detection, Cyberthreat Analysis)
- DBaaS (Cloud Database-as-a-Service)
- Data Hub (Aggregating Data from Multiple Sources)
- Big Data (Genomics, Clickstream Analysis, Customer Sentiment Analysis)
## Partners
- 350+ partners, growing ~20% monthly
- Certification: Cloud, BI/ETL, Analytics, Auditing/Security
- **IBM**: Standardizing on BSON, MongoDB query language, wire protocol; integration with Guardium and WebSphere
- **Red Hat**: Collaborating on a secure architecture for MongoDB
- **Informatica**: Integration with ETL
- **Amazon**: Easy MongoDB deployment on EC2; reference architectures; SSD instances and Provisioned IOPS (PIOPS)

Direct Ascension into Navy Nurse Corps
1. 1
Hi everyone. I have just graduated with my BSN in May. I recently have done research about the Navy Nurse Corps and have contacted a recruiter. I have decided for many reasons that the Navy nurse corps is an excellent choice for me. There is little I want more right now than to become a navy nurse! However, as I came to the idea of navy nursing a little late I am too late for the NCP and will have to apply for direct ascension. I am wondering if any of you have any advice regarding this process and any details on how competitive it is. I feel I am a well qualified applicant but also want to be realistic.
Thanks in advance for your answers,
BSN12

I've been Navy Nurse Corps for 17 years now, mostly reserves but I've done a lot of active duty time in the last 6 years. I don't recognize the term direct ascension. When I came into the reserves after nursing school the term was direct commission. Maybe direct ascension is an active duty term? I would think your recruiter would best be able to answer your questions on that
Here's some food for thought; think Nurse Corps reserves. Two main benefits; it will introduce you to what Navy nursing is all about and (a big and) you can apply for a transfer to the active duty side once you're a reservist. Nurse Crops staffing on the reserve side is currently at 80% so they're actively recruiting. You might consider it as a back door into the opportunity you're hoping for. Please feel free to ask any other questions you might have.

It's direct commission or direct accession, not ascension.

@ bsn12 and laura How was your application process proceeded? I am really interested in going the same route and wanted to know about your experience with the process/competitiveness/etc.

Hey all! I was direct accession into the nurse corps and am currently at ODS. Some in my class had it way easier than I, but heres my story: I began the process the summer before my senior year- got in touch with a recruiter, but was told to wait as it was too early to submit any paperwork due to having a year of school left. My recruiter never met with me in person throughout my senior year of school. I lost hope and never thought I'd get to be a Navy nurse, it just seemed like a slow road to nowhere. After I graduated I moved home and got in touch with a different recruiter in that area. I had my kit ready and MEPS passed in 3 months. If you have a recruiter that's efficient it takes no time at all. Call as often as possible to check your application process if you feel pulled through the dirt. After that point the waiting game was just holding out for the selection and then for the budget to be signed. I ended up getting preselected in October of last year but was placed as an alternate after the budget was cut (they had preselected too many nurses). Don't lose heart if this happens. They ended up squeezing me in at the end of this fiscal year! I received orders on Aug 3rd and left for Newport a month later. Keep your hopes up, get strong references and you are a competitive candidate!

Pain Management Varies Among Palliative Care Centers

Variations in outcomes for terminal cancer patients affected by organizational factors

The management of pain outcomes for terminally ill cancer patients varies widely between inpatient palliative care centers and is affected by organizational factors such as human resources adequacy, according to a study published in the Nov. 15 issue of Cancer.
MONDAY, Nov. 5 (HealthDay News) -- The management of pain outcomes for terminally ill cancer patients varies widely between inpatient palliative care centers and is affected by organizational factors such as human resources adequacy, according to a study published in the Nov. 15 issue of Cancer.
In an effort to determine whether pain management outcomes vary between palliative care centers, Dong Wook Shin, M.D., Dr.P.H., M.B.A., of the Seoul National University Hospital in South Korea, and colleagues conducted a study involving 1,711 patients with terminal cancer receiving care at 34 inpatient palliative care centers.
One week after admission the researchers found that 82.8 percent of patients had achieved adequate pain control, with a mean reduction of 0.69 to 1.91 points on pain scale scores. Pain management outcomes varied widely between palliative care centers. Human resource adequacy, in particular, correlated significantly with a greater reduction in pain score and an achievement of adequate pain control.
"From the public health and research perspectives, we believe that more research is needed to identify organizational factors that affect pain management outcomes," the authors write. "Measures should be taken to reduce organizational factors that are associated with inadequate pain management."

# Pain Management Varies Among Palliative Care Centers
**Last Updated:** November 05, 2012
*Variations in outcomes for terminal cancer patients affected by organizational factors*
MONDAY, Nov. 5 (HealthDay News) — The management of pain outcomes for terminally ill cancer patients varies widely between inpatient palliative care centers and is affected by organizational factors such as human resources adequacy, according to a study published in the Nov. 15 issue of *Cancer*.
In an effort to determine whether pain management outcomes vary between palliative care centers, Dong Wook Shin, M.D., Dr.P.H., M.B.A., of the Seoul National University Hospital in South Korea, and colleagues conducted a study involving 1,711 patients with terminal cancer receiving care at 34 inpatient palliative care centers.
One week after admission, the researchers found that:
- 82.8 percent of patients had achieved adequate pain control
- Mean reduction of 0.69 to 1.91 points on pain scale scores
Pain management outcomes varied widely between palliative care centers. Human resource adequacy, in particular, correlated significantly with a greater reduction in pain score and an achievement of adequate pain control.
> “From the public health and research perspectives, we believe that more research is needed to identify organizational factors that affect pain management outcomes,” the authors write. “Measures should be taken to reduce organizational factors that are associated with inadequate pain management.”

Why do nice girls finish last?
Dave: So they can go out with cheerleaders. Just kidding.
Bill: Sheesh, Dave, no way. I dump nice girls for supermodels. (Kidding, too.) Guys date girls for lots of reasons, not all of them, um, nice. Guys who only date “hot” girls (I call those guys losers; Dave prefers “lucky”) are likely insecure and not cool enough to look beyond the superficial. Instead of dating fun, kind girls with a lot of achievements, some guys look for flash, even if the odds of a successful relationship are slim. But not all guys. There are definitely plenty of nice guys who would love to spend time with a great girl. Unfortunately, you’d probably dump them.

Guys who only date "hot" girls (I call those guys losers; Dave prefers "lucky") are likely insecure and not cool enough to look beyond the superficial.

(no description)
Tell me I’m dreaming. The Las Vegas moral brigade — a county commissioner, a rape crisis maven and the Hard Rock Hotel — are up in arms over the poster for a local Guns N’ Roses concert.
Seriously, the Hard Rock Hotel? Where rock star John Entwistle overdosed on cocaine and died? Please pinch me. Wake me up.
Surprisingly, involved in this ethical spectacle is County Commissioner Mary Beth Scow, a former three-term School Board trustee, who represents the theocratic, anti-gay, anti-women’s-rights faction of the community.
Adding to the outcry over the GN’R poster, Scow has reportedly said: “This kind of advertising is not consistent with the values of this community. Too many people think it’s OK to mistreat women, to abuse them. This is an attitude we need to change.”
No shit. But during her lengthy School Board tenure, Scow consistently voted for the anti-teacher, casino-backed education reforms of the past decade. Because more than 70 percent of public educators are women, she was thus voting to lower women’s pay and to take away their workers’ rights. In other words, Scow herself was willfully engaged in the ongoing mistreatment of women.
Incidentally, the poster in question depicts a woman strung-out on a street (maybe a teacher?), leaning on a fence painted as a Chinese Communist flag. Standing directly over her is a predatory robot with a ball of light for a head (reformist politician?). Above them in the sky, a big, red whirling monster with talons (the casino industry?) is flying over the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign behind that Chinese-flag fence (symbolism?).
Hannah Brook, director of The Rape Crisis Center, reportedly said of it: “This is not the type of message to portray to tourists coming to our city. We want them to know it’s a safe place to come.”
Really? Actually the poster pretty much depicts what many of us witness, one way or another, daily. Think of the Naked City right around the corner from the Strip, or, if you will, of the local teacher murdered by marauding thugs while walking to school one morning two years ago. Safe, indeed.
Sadly, the Hard Rock has turned itself into the Soft Rock Hotel by regretting “that the Guns N’ Roses advertising for their current shows has offended any member of the community.” In fact, the new politically correct Soft Rock Hotel has apparently erased the strung-out woman from the poster posted online. We’ll have none of that in our town.
Of course, the beauty of this satiric poster art is the reaction, or overreaction, by Scow, Brook and the Soft Rock. In a town where a female county commissioner allegedly gave head to a strip club owner for Crown Royal bags full of cash, in a town with billboards advertising jobs to masturbate live in front of cameras, a town with a billion-dollar sex-trade industry, a town where thousands of mothers in skimpy outfits serve cocktails for tips … methinks the moral brigade protests a bit much.
A mime passing through our city once said, “Vegas is a mad dream.” Now, I don’t know Guns N’ Roses’ singer Axl Rose from axle grease, but in a what-happens-here-stays-here gambling culture, I’d say his band’s poster is a fairly accurate picture.
Oh, please pinch me. Wake me from this mad dream.

# Las Vegas Erupts Over Guns N’ Roses Poster and Moral Outcry
**Jan 08, 2014 2:19pm**
## Background
Tell me I’m dreaming. The Las Vegas moral brigade—a county commissioner, a rape crisis maven, and the Hard Rock Hotel—are protesting a local Guns N’ Roses concert poster. The irony is thick: Scow, Brook, and the self-branded “Soft Rock Hotel” double down on censoring art they claim promotes misogyny, while perpetuating industries that exploit women.
## Controversial Poster Description
The poster depicts:
- A woman strung-out on a street (allegedly a teacher?) leaning on a fence painted as a Chinese Communist flag.
- A predatory robot with a light-bulb head looming over her.
- A red, talon-winged monster circling the “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas” sign.
## Reactions and Hypocrisy
**County Commissioner Mary Beth Scow**:
- Claims the poster “violates community values” by enabling violence against women.
- Previously supported casino-backed education reforms that lowered pay for 70%+ female public educators and stripped their rights.
**The Rape Crisis Center**:
- Aired so-called concerns about “safe tourism,” despite Las Vegas’ rampant real-world issues like the murder of a female teacher by thugs or the “Naked City” slum near the Strip.
**Hard Rock Hotel**:
- Apologized for “offending” and redacted the “strung-out woman” from its poster.
- Piquant given its history (where John Entwistle overdosed) and local practices like adult Webcam Girl ads and sex-trade revenue.
## Satirical Commentary
In a town awash in moral contradictions:
- Strip club bribery scandals (e.g., commissioners allegedly trading favors for Crown Royal).
- Billion-dollar sex industries juxtaposed with “Values-Based” censorship.
- The poster’s surreal critiques of corporate exploitation and political hypocrisy become a mirror for a “mad dream” culture.

# Las Vegas Moral Brigade vs. Guns N' Roses Poster
**Author:** CHIP MOSHER
Tell me I’m dreaming. The Las Vegas moral brigade — a county commissioner, a rape crisis maven, and the Hard Rock Hotel — are up in arms over the poster for a local Guns N’ Roses concert.
Surprisingly, involved in this ethical spectacle is County Commissioner Mary Beth Scow, a former three-term School Board trustee, who represents the theocratic, anti-gay, anti-women’s-rights faction of the community.
> **Quoted Response from Commissioner Scow:**
> “This kind of advertising is not consistent with the values of this community. Too many people think it’s OK to mistreat women, to abuse them. This is an attitude we need to change.”
> **In contrast...**
> Scow consistently voted for anti-teacher, casino-backed education reforms that disproportionately affected women in the teaching profession.
## Poster Content Breakdown:
- A strung-out woman (possibly a teacher?) leaning on a fence painted as a Chinese Communist flag
- A predatory robot with a light-ball head looming overhead
- A red whirling monster with talons flying over the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign
> **Hannah Brook (Rape Crisis Center Director):**
> “This is not the type of message to portray to tourists coming to our city. We want them to know it’s a safe place to come.”
> **Author’s Counterpoint:**
> The poster reflects daily realities in Vegas: the "Naked City" near the Strip, the murdered teacher incident, and systemic inequality.
## Hard Rock Hotel’s Response:
The hotel has censored the poster online, editing out the "strung-out woman" in its digital version.
> **Author’s Conclusion:**
> In a city with a billion-dollar sex trade, skimpy cocktail servers, and strip club corruption, the "moral brigade" protests oxymoronic. The poster is satirical, but the reaction mirrors the city’s absurd double standards.

# FOOD REVIEW: ROSE. RABBIT. LIE.

Prominent marketing saturation—from billboards to TV commercials—has cast this establishment in public consciousness. The review hints at polarizing reactions, including grammarians reportedly protesting the perceived disregard for linguistic norms.

Las Vegas faces a moral controversy over a Guns N’ Roses concert poster featuring surreal symbolism. The case involves:
### Controversy Over Poster
- **The Poster**: Depicts a woman leaning on a Chinese-flag-painted fence, overshadowed by a robotic entity and a taloned monstrosity.
- **Key Critics**:
- **Mary Beth Scow**: County Commissioner accused of hypocrisy for supporting anti-teacher education reforms disproportionately affecting women.
- **Hannah Brook**: Rape Crisis Center director calling the poster "inconsistent with community values."
- **Hard Rock Hotel**: Rebranded as the "Soft Rock Hotel" after removing the poster to appease "offended members of the community."
### Key Quotes and Reactions
> **Scow**: "This kind of advertising... needs to change."
> **Brook**: "Not the message to portray to tourists."
Critiques of the critics:
- Historically, Las Vegas thrives on paradox—exploitative industries coexist with "moral outrage."
- The author challenges the hypocrisy of institutional figures (e.g., Scow’s alleged personal conduct vs. public stance) and the town’s broader double standards.
### Context and Commentary
- The poster is framed as satirical, mirroring societal undercurrents of exploitation in a city where:
- Strip club transactions for political favors are alleged.
- Billboards advertise adult entertainment jobs.
- A local teacher’s murder highlights real dangers in the "safe" tourist veneer.
The author concludes by linking the poster’s imagery to the city’s Mad Dreamscape:
> "In a what-happens-here-stays-here gambling culture, Guns N’ Roses’ poster is a fairly accurate picture."

The Hard Rock Hotel has erred by removing the strung-out woman from the poster following complaints.

Akron Zips on Big Ten Network, NCAA daily blog

The 12th ranked Univ of Akron will appear on Big 10 Network Sunday when they take on Indiana at 2:00 pm. The team could be on the network two more times as the Zips take on Penn State in October before closing out the regular season against the Ohio State Buckeyes.
The Zips won the regular season and tournament championships last year, one of five Akron teams to bring home MAC hardware. And hoping to improve on their first round loss in the NCAA.
Zips player Ossie Micalsen was one of a select few chosen by the NCAA to write a weekly blog on their website.
Plans were also released of renovations to Lee Jackson Field, making it one of the premier D1 facilities in the country.

Sweet, definitely will catch that Sunday afternoon.
Sure would be nice if the so-called "reporters" at the PD actually covered this sport.
We have one of the premier training academies in the US in Northeast Ohio, just had a championship won by a Cleveland team, have had several youth national championships won by clubs in the area, the Zips are nationally ranked...but the good old PD can't be bothered to cover the sport.
it's a shame.

The Zips won the regular season and tournament championships last year, one of five Akron teams to bring home MAC hardware. And hoping to improve on their first round loss in the NCAA.
Zips player Ossie Micalsen was one of a select few chosen by the NCAA to write a weekly blog on their website.
Plans were also released of renovations to Lee Jackson Field, making it one of the premier D1 facilities in the country.

Sweet, definitely will catch that Sunday afternoon.
Sure would be nice if the so-called "reporters" at the PD actually covered this sport.
We have one of the premier training academies in the US in Northeast Ohio, just had a championship won by a Cleveland team, have had several youth national championships won by clubs in the area, the Zips are nationally ranked...but the good old PD can't be bothered to cover the sport.
It's a shame.

## Big Ten Network Schedule Announcement
**Posted by Spin on Thu Aug 28, 2008 10:35 pm**
The 12th-ranked University of Akron Zips will appear on the Big Ten Network this Sunday when they play Indiana at 2:00 PM. Potential scheduling includes additional matches against Penn State in October and the Ohio State Buckeyes to close the regular season.
Last year, the Zips claimed both the regular season and tournament MAC championships, joining four other Akron teams that received MAC hardware. The team aims to recover from a first-round NCAA tournament exit.
Player **Ossie Micalsen** was selected by the NCAA to write a weekly blog on their platform. Upcoming renovations to Lee Jackson Field will position it as one of the top NCAA Division I facilities in the U.S.
## Strong Season Opening
**Posted by Spin on Sat Aug 30, 2008 1:05 am**
The Zips kicked off their season with a 3-0 upset victory over #3 Notre Dame. This marks a promising year for soccer, as the season remains far from its midpoint.

Highlighting regional discontent, budfrog532 notes the lack of local media attention:

Regional soccer achievements include:
- A championship won by a Cleveland team
- Multiple youth national championships by local clubs
- The Zips' national rankings and premier training academies in Northeast Ohio
Budfrog532 concludes it’s a "shame" these accomplishments remain underreported by local media.

Britney Spears Speaks Her Mind ... on a Sweatshirt
by at . Comments
Looks like Britney Spears has something to get off her chest. And no, we're not talking about a pesky bra. Girl loves being topless! And wearing no underwear!
Really, just ask Tuesday Knight! But in this case, we mean it in a different way - her sweatshirt in the pic below proclaims: "F*%k Off Lover Boy." Class.
Britney Spears sends a thinly-veiled message to someone.
Who is the object of Brit's bitterness? Could it be ex husbands Kevin Federline and Jason Alexander? Or perhaps Daimon Shippen? Isaac Cohen? JR Rotem?
Regardless, the 25-year-old "singer" showed off the outfit while driving in Malibu, Calif., on October 16. The message was on the back of the jacket, which Spears was wearing backwards. No word on whether she turned it around on purpose to make a statement, or was simply confused while dressing.
The sweatshirt isn't the only incidence of Spears swearing of late. Last week, she was heard dropping the f-bomb and other choice comments at Neiman Marcus.
The train wreck then summoned her assistant, Bret, to bring her dog, London. She was told, though, that the Yorkie was at her house in Malibu - 27 miles away.
"F*%k that," Britney Spears replied. "That will take us an hour to drive there. Can't we have the dog messengered over?"
Classic Britney. Spears then went on to badmouth the judge presiding over her ongoing custody battle / trial, calling him "catty" and an "old fart" who "gets off" on "telling people what to do" and shows Britney "no respect."

# Britney Spears Speaks Her Mind ... on a Sweatshirt
By [Author] at [Date]. Comments
Britney Spears has made a bold statement—with a sweatshirt. On October 16, the 25-year-old singer was spotted in Malibu, California, wearing a jacket backwards that bore the message "F*%k Off Lover Boy" on its back. The cryptic declaration hints at lingering tensions with past romantic entanglements. Speculation surrounds the target of her frustration, with names like ex-husbands Kevin Federline and Jason Alexander, as well as other rumored partners such as Daimon Eaves, Isaac Cohen, and JR Rotem, being floated.
The incident occurred during a casual outing in Malibu. While it remains unclear whether Spears intentionally flipped the sweatshirt to display the message or merely dressed hastily, her recent verbal outbursts suggest a pattern. Less than a week prior, she was reported to have used explicit language at a Neiman Marcus store. The same day also saw her demand that an assistant retrieve her Yorkie dog, London, from 27 miles away, only to famously retort, "F*%k that," when informed of the travel time.
Spears' remarks extended to her ongoing legal battles, as she insulted a judge overseeing her custody case. Dubbed a "catty" and "old fart," the judge was accused of deriving power from controlling others and showing Spears "no respect."

# Britney Spears Speaks Her Mind... on a Sweatshirt
**Author not specified. October 16.**
Looks like Britney Spears has something to get off her chest. And no, we're not talking about a pesky bra. Girl loves being topless! And wearing no underwear!
Really, just ask Tuesday Knight! But in this case, we mean it in a different way—her sweatshirt in the pic below proclaims: "F\*\*\* Off Lover Boy." Class.
Britney Spears sends a thinly-veiled message to someone.
### Who is the Object of Brit's Bitterness?
- Kevin Federline (ex-husband)
- Jason Alexander (ex-husband)
- Daimon Shippen
- Isaac Cohen
- JR Rotem
Regardless, the 25-year-old "singer" showed off the outfit while driving in Malibu, Calif., on October 16. The message was on the back of the jacket, which Spears was wearing backwards. No word on whether she turned it around on purpose to make a statement—or was simply confused while dressing.
The sweatshirt isn't the only incidence of Spears swearing of late. Last week, she was heard dropping the f-bomb and other choice comments at Neiman Marcus. The train wreck summoned her assistant, Bret, to bring her dog, London. She was told, though, that the Yorkie was at her house in Malibu—27 miles away.
> "F\*\*\* that," Britney Spears replied. "That will take us an hour to drive there. Can't we have the dog messengered over?"
Classic Britney. Spears then went on to badmouth the judge presiding over her ongoing custody battle/trial, calling him "catty" and an "old fart" who "gets off" on "telling people what to do" and shows Britney "no respect."

# Britney Spears Speaks Her Mind ... on a Sweatshirt
Britney Spears has something to express—literally. In a recent viral moment, the pop star wore a sweatshirt backward with the phrase **"F*%k Off Lover Boy"** emblazoned on it while driving in Malibu, California. The message, a clear (and crude) public dig at an unnamed ex, sparked speculation about potential targets:
- Kevin Federline (ex-husband)
- Jason Alexander (ex-husband)
- Daimon Shippen
- Isaac Cohen
- JR Rotem
Spears, 25 at the time, turned the T-shirt into a statement piece, though it remains unclear whether the placement was intentional or an accident.
---
## A Pattern of Outbursts
This was not an isolated incident. The "singer" had previously dropped the f-bomb and criticized a judge in her ongoing custody battle, calling the presiding officer a "catty old fart" who "gets off" on "telling people what to do" and showing her "no respect."
During a minor tantrum over her dog, Spears also reportedly demanded to have herYorkie, London, "messengered" instead of traveled 27 miles to fetch it. She reportedly told her assistant, **"F*%k that."**

# Britney Spears Speaks Her Mind ... on a Sweatshirt
Britney Spears has made a bold statement with her choice of attire. On October 16, she was spotted in Malibu, California, wearing a sweatshirt emblazoned with a shocking message: *"F*%k Off Lover Boy"* on the back. Notably, the jacket was worn backward, leaving questions about whether the gesture was intentional.
**Who is the target of Britney's frustration?** Speculation suggests ex-husbands Kevin Federline and Jason Alexander, or past romantic partners like Daimon Shippen, Isaac Cohen, and JR Rotem. The singer has also recently used explicit language at a Neiman Marcus store and expressed frustration during a dog-related mishap. When informed her Yorkie would require an hour’s drive to retrieve, she replied, *“F*%k that.”*
The incident followed her harsh criticism of a judge overseeing her custody battle, whom she called a *“catty old fart”* who derives pleasure from *“telling people what to do.”*

*Born in Kentwood, Louisiana (full name: Britney Jean Spears), the 25-year-old blames Spears for the outbursts, as she described them. Other mentions include New York City, where Spears once asked:*
*"I miss it here so much! I love it so much! It makes me it's kinda like bittersweet coming here because I used to live here for two years."*
*MTV influence in her career was also noted:*
*"MTV has long played an important role in my career. How can I not be there to kick off their 25th VMAs?"*

# Britney Spears Speaks Her Mind ... on a Sweatshirt
Britney Spears made headlines with a bold statement, not through words but a well-placed piece of clothing. On October 16, the 25-year-old singer was photographed in Malibu, California, wearing a sweatshirt backward to display a provocative message on its back: “F*%k Off Lover Boy.” The gesture sparked speculation about the target of Spears’ frustration, with rumors pointing to ex-husbands Kevin Federline and Jason Alexander, as well as other high-profile figures from her career like Daimon Shippen, Isaac Cohen, and JR Rotem.
### Incidents of Discontent
The sweatshirt was not Spears’ only recent outburst. A week earlier, she was overheard using expletives at a Neiman Marcus store. During the visit, Spears demanded her dog, London, be retrieved from her Malibu home—27 miles away. After being informed of the distance, she reportedly snapped, “F*%k that. That will take us an hour to drive there. Can’t we have the dog messengered over?”
In the same encounter, Spears criticized the judge handling her ongoing custody battle, calling him a “catty,” “old fart” who “gets off on telling people what to do” and shows her “no respect.”

article imageFour Guantanamo Bay detainees arrive in Albania and Spain
article:288075:4::0
By Chris Dade Feb 24, 2010 in World
Four more detainees have been transferred out of the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. Three men from North Africa have been accepted by Albania, with the remaining man from the Palestinian Territories being accepted by Spain.
Both Reuters and Al Jazeera report that, following the announcement on Wednesday of the latest releases, there are now 188 prisoners left in a facility that President Obama vowed to close by January this year, shortly after taking office in January 2009.
Wednesday's announcement was made by the U.S. Justice Department.
According to the Associated Press Albania, a country in the area of Southeastern Europe known as the Balkans, has since 2006 accepted eight former prisoners from Guantanamo, although it is not clear if that number is inclusive of the latest arrivals, named as Saleh Bin Hadi Asasi, Sharif Fati Ali al Mishad and Rauf Omar Mohammad Abu al Qusin.
The men - originally from Tunisia, Egypt and Libya respectively - can expect to receive assistance in finding work in Albania but will not be allowed to leave the former Communist country.
Meanwhile Walid Hijazi, whose home town is in Gaza, has apparently become the first of five Guantanamo detainees Spain has agreed to accept to arrive in the country which sits on the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean.
Some sources are reporting that the name of the man released into the care of the Spanish authorities has not been disclosed but the Associated Press claims to have confirmed his identity via an anonymous family member.
As with the men transferred to Albania Walid Hijazi is allowed to find work in the country that has taken him in but he cannot leave his new home.
Of the 580 plus inmates who have reportedly left Guantanamo since 2002, for 39 different countries, 48 have been transferred during the time Barack Obama has served as President. One other man has been transferred to New York to face charges related to the bombings of the U.S. embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Nairobi, Kenya in 1998.
A majority of those held at some stage in Guantanamo were captured during the fighting that followed the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. There have been rumors of female prisoners held at the facility but there has apparently been no corroboration of those rumors.
Petitions in U.S. courts have secured the release of 32 detainees from a facility President Obama is still committed to closing, while 11 inmates have made unsuccessful requests for release.
Fear of reprisals if returned to their home countries is one reason for finding new homes for the former inmates.
There are concerns too that some men may return to their terrorist activities, if indeed they had ever been involved in terrorism prior to their detention.
One country of particular concern to the U.S. authorities is Yemen.
Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the Nigerian man who allegedly tried to blow up a plane heading for Detroit on December 25, is said to have been trained in Yemen and there have been reports of ex-inmates of Guantanamo Bay joining up with al-Qaeda once more, upon their return to Yemen.
Al Jazeera notes that approximately half of the 188 men still detained in Guantanamo are from Yemen, observing too that transfers to the country on the Arabian Peninsula were suspended last month.
The inability of the U.S. to find countries willing to accept detainees has been one of the major obstacles to the closure of the facility in Cuba.
France, Ireland, Switzerland and Bulgaria are another four of the 11 European countries in total that have consented to taking in former detainees..

- Walid Hijazi was identified via an anonymous family member and is authorized to work but not to leave Spain.
## Legal and Regional Context

- Departure of detainees often driven by fears of **reprisals** upon return to home countries.
- U.S. authorities monitor risks of former detainees **resuming terrorist activities**.
## Concerns Over Reintegration and Closure Obstacles

- Example: **Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab**, who allegedly attempted a 2009 plane bombing, trained in Yemen.
- **Guantanamo-Yemen transfers** were suspended in the lead-up to 2010.
- **International cooperation** remains complex, with 11 European countries (France, Ireland, Switzerland, Bulgaria, etc.) approving transfers.

# Four Guantanamo Bay Detainees Arrive in Albania and Spain
**By Chris Dade | February 24, 2010**
The U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, has transferred four detainees—three men from North Africa and one from the Palestinian Territories—to Albania and Spain. President Barack Obama, who pledged to close the facility by January 2010, now accounts for 188 remaining prisoners.
## Key Transfers
- **Albania**: Accepted three detainees—**Saleh Bin Hadi Asasi** (Tunisian), **Sharif Fati Ali al Mishad** (Egyptian), and **Rauf Omar Mohammad Abu al Qusin** (Libyan).
- Albania, which has accepted eight Guantanamo detainees since 2006, will assist these men in finding employment but prohibits their departure.
- **Spain**: Welcomed **Walid Hijazi** (Palestinian from Gaza), the first of five detainees Spain has committed to accepting. Hijazi will be allowed employment but not to leave the country.
- Source: **Associated Press** confirmed Hijazi’s identity via an anonymous family member.
## U.S. Transfer Record
Since 2002, over **580 prisoners** have been relocated from Guantanamo across 39 countries:
- Under Obama, **48 transfers** occurred.
- One detainee was sent to New York to face 1998 embassy bombing charges.
## Challenges in Closure
- **Yemeni Detainees**: Ensuring half of the remaining 188 detainees (from Yemen) safe reintegration remains contentious, as al-Qaeda resumption is feared. Transfers to Yemen were suspended in January 2010.
- **Country Reluctance**: The U.S. struggles to secure host nations willing to accept detainees.
- European countries including **France**, **Ireland**, **Switzerland**, and **Bulgaria** have approved acceptances.
- **Terrorist Concerns**: U.S. officials cite fear of detainees resuming terrorist activities, particularly with Yemen links (e.g., **Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab**, the "Underwear Bomber").
## Legal and Humanitarian Factors
- **Court-ordered Releases**: 32 detainees secured release via litigation.
- **Unsuccessful Appeals**: 11 inmates faced denied requests for transfer.
- **Redirection Rationale**: Many detainees remain due to fears of reprisal threats in their home countries.
## Background
- Most Guantanamo detainees were captured post-2001阿富汗战争.U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan.
- No verified confirmation of female prisoners in the facility.

**By Chris Dade**
*Feb 24, 2010 in World*
Four Guantanamo Bay detainees have been transferred to Albania and Spain. Three men from North Africa were accepted by Albania, while a fourth man from the Palestinian Territories was taken in by Spain.
The U.S. Justice Department announced the transfers, bringing the remaining prisoner count at Guantanamo Bay to **188**. This follows President Obama’s pledge to close the facility by January 2010.

- **Saleh Bin Hadi Asasi** (Tunisia)
- **Sharif Fati Ali al Mishad** (Egypt)
- **Rauf Omar Mohammad Abu al Qusin** (Libya)
The men will not be permitted to leave Albania but may receive assistance in finding employment.
## Spain Accepts One Detainee
Spain has accepted **Walid Hijazi**, a Palestinian from Gaza. His identity was confirmed by an anonymous source, according to the *Associated Press*. Like the Albanian detainees, Hijazi may work in Spain but cannot exit the country.
## Broader Context
- **580+** detainees have been transferred to 39 countries since 2002.

### International Cooperation
Eleven European countries, including **France**, **Ireland**, **Switzerland**, and **Bulgaria**, have agreed to accept former detainees. However, the lack of willing nations remains a major barrier to closing Guantanamo Bay.

**Four Guantanamo Bay detainees arrive in Albania and Spain**
*By Chris Dade | Feb 24, 2010*
Four more detainees have been transferred out of the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. Three men from North Africa—originally from Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya—have been accepted by Albania, while the remaining man from the Palestinian Territories has been accepted by Spain. Following the announcement by the U.S. Justice Department, 188 prisoners remain in the facility, a number consistent with reports from Reuters and Al Jazeera.
Albania, a Balkan nation, has accepted eight former Guantanamo detainees since 2006, with the latest arrivals identified as Saleh Bin Hadi Asasi, Sharif Fati Ali al Mishad, and Rauf Omar Mohammad Abu al Qusin. These individuals are permitted to seek employment in Albania but are not allowed to leave the country. In Spain, Walid Hijazi, originally from Gaza, has become the first of five planned transfers to arrive. While Spain’s authorities have confirmed his presence, his identity remains unspecified in some reports. Hijazi is also restricted from leaving Spain.
Since 2002, over 580 detainees have been released to 39 countries, with 48 transfers occurring under President Barack Obama's administration. One detainee has been sent to New York to face charges related to the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in Africa. Most detainees were captured during the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. Yemen remains a concern, as half of the remaining detainees are from the country, and fears persist about ex-detainees rejoining militant groups like al-Qaeda.
The U.S. has struggled to secure countries willing to accept detainees, an obstacle to President Obama’s pledge to close Guantanamo by January 2010. Eleven European countries, including France, Ireland, Switzerland, and Bulgaria, have agreed to take in former detainees.

# Four Guantanamo Bay detainees arrive in Albania and Spain
*By Chris Dade | Feb 24, 2010 | World*
Four more detainees have been transferred out of the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. Three men from North Africa have been accepted by Albania, with the remaining man from the Palestinian Territories being accepted by Spain.
Both Reuters and Al Jazeera report that, following the announcement on Wednesday of the latest releases, there are now 188 prisoners left in a facility that President Obama vowed to close by January this year, shortly after taking office in January 2009.
Wednesday's announcement was made by the U.S. Justice Department.
According to the Associated Press Albania, a country in the area of Southeastern Europe known as the Balkans, has since 2006 accepted eight former prisoners from Guantanamo, although it is not clear if that number is inclusive of the latest arrivals, named as Saleh Bin Hadi Asasi, Sharif Fati Ali al Mishad and Rauf Omar Mohammad Abu al Qusin.
The men—originally from Tunisia, Egypt and Libya respectively—can expect to receive assistance in finding work in Albania but will not be allowed to leave the former Communist country.
Meanwhile Walid Hijazi, whose home town is in Gaza, has apparently become the first of five Guantanamo detainees Spain has agreed to accept to arrive in the country which sits on the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean.
Some sources are reporting that the name of the man released into the care of the Spanish authorities has not been disclosed but the Associated Press claims to have confirmed his identity via an anonymous family member.
As with the men transferred to Albania Walid Hijazi is allowed to find work in the country that has taken him in but he cannot leave his new home.
Of the 580 plus inmates who have reportedly left Guantanamo since 2002, for 39 different countries, 48 have been transferred during the time Barack Obama has served as President. One other man has been transferred to New York to face charges related to the bombings of the U.S. embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Nairobi, Kenya in 1998.
A majority of those held at some stage in Guantanamo were captured during the fighting that followed the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. There have been rumors of female prisoners held at the facility but there has apparently been no corroboration of those rumors.
Petitions in U.S. courts have secured the release of 32 detainees from a facility President Obama is still committed to closing, while 11 inmates have made unsuccessful requests for release.
Fear of reprisals if returned to their home countries is one reason for finding new homes for the former inmates.
There are concerns too that some men may return to their terrorist activities, if indeed they had ever been involved in terrorism prior to their detention.
One country of particular concern to the U.S. authorities is Yemen.
Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the Nigerian man who allegedly tried to blow up a plane heading for Detroit on December 25, is said to have been trained in Yemen and there have been reports of ex-inmates of Guantanamo Bay joining up with al-Qaeda once more, upon their return to Yemen.
Al Jazeera notes that approximately half of the 188 men still detained in Guantanamo are from Yemen, observing too that transfers to the country on the Arabian Peninsula were suspended last month.
The inability of the U.S. to find countries willing to accept detainees has been one of the major obstacles to the closure of the facility in Cuba.
France, Ireland, Switzerland and Bulgaria are another four of the 11 European countries in total that have consented to taking in former detainees.

Governor heading back to Ferguson
Created: 08/16/2014 2:48 PM WHEC.com
By: Associated Press
Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon is planning another visit to the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson today. His office says the governor will be meeting with local leaders, after fresh violence erupted following protests over the police killing of an unarmed teen.
Several hundred people congregated on a busy Ferguson street Friday night as protests continued nearly a week after 18-year-old Michael Brown was shot and killed by a police officer.
It was peaceful until about midnight, when a large crowd broke into the convenience mart that Brown allegedly robbed the day he was killed.
Missouri State Highway Patrol Captain Ron Johnson said some in the crowd began throwing rocks and other objects at police. Police used tear gas to disburse the crowd but no arrests were made.
One officer was hurt, but information on his injuries was not immediately available.

Somewhere, a US Soldier or Airman will have to push a button to launch that missle and right then and there, the process will begin to unravel because he will stand up and defy orders.
I may be stupid on this point but I don't believe a US Soldier in any of the Forces will ever fire on a US Citizen in the USA who is not actively engaged in a criminal act and don't bring up Kent State.
And should it happen, I think there will be hell to pay on such a scale it would immediately result in a near unaminous vote to impeach.

I sincerely hope you are correct Dave, but, I would think it would depend on just how much propaganda that soldier had been fed by his superiors, as to "what/who" he actually thinks he is firing upon. Most likely he(the operator) will be fed info relating to his "target", that he is firing upon any number of bad guys, terrorists, extremists, and think he is doing the right thing. Problem is, that from a drone attack, there is no "feeling" involved, just like playing a video game to the controller imo.

I would say the guy pushing the button will not know who what where of the opp. The fact that there are a lot of levels between a drone strike and the president. A lot of those levels are real American Officers and NCO's. If Rush or Hanaty names came up I would bet there would be some congressional oversight real quick. I am not saying a president has no controls as there needs to be some if we are to go down the road of using drones to fire on Americans. And the fact is this still must be done on foreign soil. If it is in the us the military is strictly limited to what they can do.

If it is in the US the military is strictly limited to what they can do.

Those drones are controlled from the Pentagon for the most part...they push the buttons.

# Re: Drone strikes on US Citizens
### DaveB (02/06/13 07:00 PM, Shelby County)
Somewhere, a US Soldier or Airman will have to push a button to launch that missle and right then and there, the process will begin to unravel because he will stand up and defy orders.
I may be stupid on this point but I don't believe a US Soldier in any of the Forces will ever fire on a US Citizen in the USA who is not actively engaged in a criminal act and don't bring up Kent State.
And should it happen, I think there will be hell to pay on such a scale it would immediately result in a near unaminous vote to impeach.

I sincerely hope you are correct Dave, but, I would think it would depend on just how much propaganda that soldier had been fed by his superiors, as to "what/who" he actually thinks he is firing upon. Most likely he(the operator) will be fed info relating to his "target", that he is firing upon any number of bad guys, terrorists, extremists, and think he is doing the right thing. Problem is, that from a drone attack, there is no "feeling" involved, just like playing a video game to the controller imo.

I am not saying a president has no controls as there needs to be some if we are to go down the road of using drones to fire on Americans. And the fact is this still must be done on foreign soil. If it is in the us the military is strictly limited to what they can do.

Cyber crime fighters must focus on risk management, rather than prevention
By Peter Gothard
30 May 2012 View Comments
A padlock on a hard drive representing cyber security
Cyber security professionals should shift their focus from prevention to risk management, Royal Holloway Information Security Group's Dr Stephen Wolthusen told today's Westminster UK Cyber Security Strategy eForum.
"A very sophisticated, server-side attack that could get you into an organisation costs you low five figures – at most," said Wolthusen. "And a highly sophisticated zero-day attack will quickly become part of the general armoury of adversaries."
Further reading
"I don't actually buy the distinction in the 80/20 rule [which suggests that 80 per cent of cyber attacks can be prevented simply by best practice]," he continued. "Anyone that says it's the 80 per cent threat level that's relevant, if you see the cost to an adversary, realistically it would make more sense for organisations to understand the whole picture than just target the low-level threats."
Wolthusen suggested that, with the notion that "the adversary will already be in the system, happily prancing around disabling the security" taken as a given, "not a great deal" remained to be done.
"The cyber security capabilities that can combat this are likely to be beyond the reach of organisatons, and is likely to stay this way. Because even if you have the budget, you don't have the people that can keep up with it," Wolthusen argued.
Risk management, he suggested, is the way foreward. Though it may be painful to admit this, organisations should recognise "we are not going to get this right. Most of the time we're just plugging holes", he said.
"The one thing we can contribute is a better understanding of what the assets are," he added.
Wolthusen gave an example of a large airport recently left unable to operate a baggage handling system because one of its small contractors had lost control of a system, due to cyber crime, and couldn't repair it.
"Businesses are subdividing their supply chains deeper and deeper, and compliance organisations do not have the reach all the way down," said Wolthusen, adding that focus needs to be on "where those risks are hidden".
"The best thing that we can hope for," said Wolthusen, "when the enemy is already within, is to rebuild forensically the damage done, so others can learn from it.
"The question is, how can we share this information in a way that is actionable."

# Cyber crime fighters must focus on risk management, rather than prevention
**By Peter Gothard**
30 May 2012
A padlock on a hard drive representing cyber security
Cyber security professionals should shift their focus from prevention to risk management, according to Dr Stephen Wolthusen of the Royal Holloway Information Security Group, who spoke at today's Westminster UK Cyber Security Strategy eForum.
Wolthusen made several key points:
- A sophisticated, server-side attack that could infiltrate an organization costs "low five figures – at most"
- A highly sophisticated zero-day attack will quickly become part of the "general armoury" of adversaries
- He doubts the relevance of the 80/20 rule (which suggests that 80 per cent of cyber attacks can be prevented through best practice)
- Adversaries could clearly invest less to achieve significant cyber attacks
- Organizations should understand the full threat picture, not just focus on low-level threats
Wolthusen argued that with the reality that "the adversary will already be in the system" as a given, there "isn't a great deal" that can be done. He suggested that:
- Current cybersecurity capabilities may be beyond the reach of most organizations
- Even with the necessary budget, organizations lack personnel with the required skills to keep current with cybersecurity threats
### The need for risk management
Wolthusen advocated for a shift to risk management, stating that:
- It may be painful to admit, but organizations must recognize that they won't get cybersecurity "right" all the time
- Most efforts are simply "plugging holes"
- Better understanding of what assets are most important is crucial
He provided an example of a significant incident at a large airport where its baggage handling system became inoperable. This occurred because one of the small contractors lost control of a system due to cybercrime and couldn't repair it.
Wolthusen highlighted that:
- Businesses are fragmenting their supply chains more deeply
- Compliance organizations don't have the reach to cover these extended supply chains
- Focus should be placed on where these risks are hidden
Finally, Wolthusen concluded:
- The best outcome when an adversary is already within a system is to "rebuild forensically the damage done"
- He emphasized the importance of finding ways to "share information in a way that is actionable"

> "A very sophisticated, server-side attack that could get you into an organisation costs you low five figures – at most," said Wolthusen. "And a highly sophisticated zero-day attack will quickly become part of the general armoury of adversaries."
Wolthusen challenged the commonly referenced "80/20 rule"—the idea that 80% of cyber attacks can be prevented by best practice. He argued that this framework oversimplifies the reality of cyber threats.
> "I don't actually buy the distinction in the 80/20 rule [which suggests that 80 per cent of cyber attacks can be prevented simply by best practice]," he continued. "Anyone that says it's the 80 per cent threat level that's relevant, if you see the cost to an adversary, realistically it would make more sense for organisations to understand the whole picture than just target the low-level threats."
Wolthusen emphasized a critical shift in mindset: "The adversary will already be in the system, happily prancing around disabling the security" should be accepted as a given. He suggested this reality leaves organizations with limited defensive options.
> "The cyber security capabilities that can combat this are likely to be beyond the reach of organisations," he said. "Even if you have the budget, you don't have the people that can keep up with it."
### The Case for Risk Management
Wolthusen proposed that risk management is the forward path. Though admitting this may feel contentious, he argued:
> "We are not going to get this right. Most of the time we're just plugging holes."
He stressed the importance of understanding organizational assets: "The one thing we can contribute is a better understanding of what the assets are."
An illustrative example he provided involved a large airport unable to operate its baggage handling system after a small contractor lost control of its network due to a cyber crime. Wolthusen cited this to highlight risks embedded in complex supply chains:
> "Businesses are subdividing their supply chains deeper and deeper, and compliance organisations do not have the reach all the way down."
Wolthusen concluded that the best response to compromised systems is forensic reconstruction of breaches to enable organizational learning:
> "The question is, how can we share this information in a way that is actionable?"

# Cyber Crime Fighters Must Focus on Risk Management, Rather Than Prevention
**By Peter Gothard**
**30 May 2012**
Cyber security professionals should shift their focus from prevention to risk management, according to Dr. Stephen Wolthusen of the Royal Holloway Information Security Group, who spoke at the Westminster UK Cyber Security Strategy eForum.
*"A very sophisticated, server-side attack that could get you into an organisation costs you low five figures – at most,"* said Wolthusen. *"And a highly sophisticated zero-day attack will quickly become part of the general armoury of adversaries."*
### Shift to Risk Management as Key Strategy
Wolthusen critiqued the 80/20 rule, which suggests that 80% of cyber attacks can be prevented through best practices. He argued instead that organizations must consider the full spectrum of threats:
*"Anyone that says it's the 80% threat level that's relevant, if you see the cost to an adversary, realistically it would make more sense for organisations to understand the whole picture than just target the low-level threats."*
He emphasized a foundational assumption: **"the adversary will already be in the system, happily prancing around disabling the security."** This reality, he said, negates the feasibility of perfect prevention.
### Challenges in Cyber Security Capabilities
Wolthusen highlighted two critical obstacles for organizations:
1. **Lack of budget and personnel** to address advanced threats.
2. **Inability to scale** cyber security efforts effectively, even with adequate funding.
*"We are not going to get this right. Most of the time we're just plugging holes,"* he added.
### The Role of Supply Chain Risks
He provided an example of a large airport paralyzed by a baggage handling system outage caused by a small contractor's cyber security failure. This underscored the risks of fragmented supply chains and the difficulty of monitoring third-party vulnerabilities.
*"Businesses are subdividing their supply chains deeper and deeper, and compliance organisations do not have the reach all the way down,"* Wolthusen said.
### Towards a Collaborative Mitigation Strategy
The final priority, according to Wolthusen, is to:
- **Rebuild systems forensically** after breaches to learn from incidents.
- **Share actionable information** across organizations to improve collective resilience.
*"The question is, how can we share this information in a way that is actionable,"* he concluded. Mexico City Restaurant Closes After Pending Inspection Violations

- **Limitations of cyber security capabilities**:

- **Risk management is the way forward**:

At the Westminster UK Cyber Security Strategy eForum, Dr. Stephen Wolthusen of the Royal Holloway Information Security Group argued that organizations should shift their focus from cyber *prevention* to *risk management*. Discussing the limitations of traditional security approaches, Wolthusen highlighted several key points:
> **Sophisticated Attack Costs**
> "A very sophisticated, server-side attack that could get you into an organisation costs you low five figures – at most," Wolthusen said.
>
> **80/20 Rule Critique**
> Contrary to the 80/20 rule (suggesting 80% of attacks can be prevented via best practice), Wolthusen asserted that organizations must understand the full threat landscape, not just low-level threats. "If you see the cost to an adversary, realistically it would make more sense to focus on the whole picture."
### Adversary Already Inside
Wolthusen emphasized that acknowledging adversaries are already within systems is crucial. "Not a great deal remains to be done," he noted, stressing:
> "The cyber security capabilities that can combat this are likely to be beyond the reach of organisations."
Budgets alone cannot address deficits in skilled personnel, he argued, noting that "most of the time we're just plugging holes." This reality underscores the need for **risk management** over aspirational prevention.
### Understanding Assets
Risk management requires a better understanding of organizational assets. Wolthusen provided an example:
> "A large airport recently [lost baggage handling system functionality] because one of its small contractors had lost control of a system due to cyber crime."
This incident illustrates how supply chains expose hidden risks, a challenge Wolthusen described as follows:
> "Businesses are subdividing their supply chains deeper and deeper, and compliance organisations do not have the reach all the way down."
### Mitigation and Learning
When adversaries are already inside systems, Wolthusen advocated for forensically rebuilding damage to enable learning:
> "The best we can hope for [...] is to share this information in a way that is actionable."
This approach, while difficult to implement, aligns with the practical constraints of modern cyber defense.

# Cyber crime fighters must focus on risk management, rather than prevention
**By Peter Gothard | 30 May 2012**
![A padlock on a hard drive representing cyber security]()
Cyber security professionals should shift their focus from prevention to risk management, Royal Holloway Information Security Group’s Dr Stephen Wolthusen told the Westminster UK Cyber Security Strategy eForum.
> “A very sophisticated, server-side attack that could get you into an organisation costs you low five figures – at most. And a highly sophisticated zero-day attack will quickly become part of the general armoury of adversaries.”
“I don’t actually buy the distinction in the 80/20 rule [which suggests that 80 per cent of cyber attacks can be prevented simply by best practice],” he continued. “Anyone that says it’s the 80 per cent threat level that’s relevant, if you see the cost to an adversary, realistically it would make more sense for organisations to understand the whole picture than just target the low-level threats.”
Wolthusen suggested that, with the notion that “the adversary will already be in the system, happily prancing around disabling the security” taken as a given, “not a great deal” remained to be done.
> “The cyber security capabilities that can combat this are likely to be beyond the reach of organisations, and is likely to stay this way. Because even if you have the budget, you don’t have the people that can keep up with it.”
Risk management, he suggested, is the way forward. Though it may be painful to admit this, organisations should recognise “we are not going to get this right. Most of the time we’re just plugging holes.”
> “The one thing we can contribute is a better understanding of what the assets are.”
Wolthusen gave an example of a large airport recently left unable to operate a baggage handling system because one of its small contractors had lost control of a system, due to cyber crime, and couldn’t repair it.
> “Businesses are subdividing their supply chains deeper and deeper, and compliance organisations do not have the reach all the way down,” adding that focus needs to be on “where those risks are hidden.”
> “The best thing that we can hope for, when the enemy is already within, is to rebuild forensically the damage done, so others can learn from it.
>
> The question is, how can we share this information in a way that is actionable.”

This moderately difficult trek north of Kathmandu surrounds you with views of soaring, snow-capped peaks. Running through an area inhabited predominantly by the Tamang people, it sees far fewer visitors than the Annapurna and Mount Everest treks, so most of each day is spent walking alone amongst the mountains and yaks.

Okay, let's see. The user provided a raw webtext that looks like a user profile from a fly fishing forum. The task is to extract meaningful content and present it in clean markdown.
First, I need to identify the key sections. The main info here is the user's name, about me details, home waters, statistics, join date, contact info, and the URL. The rest seems like metadata or page-specific info that's probably not needed, like the copyright notice, time, and links to send messages.
The user mentioned preserving substance while removing noise. So, I should focus on the user's profile details. The username is 2HandTheSalt, and their home waters are Cape Cod. The statistics include total posts, but the general information has the join date as 09-08-2000. The contact info mentions using instant messaging, but the actual message says not to include metadata like send message links.
Also, the URL is provided, but the user wants to eliminate noise. Since the URL is part of the profile info, maybe include it as a link. However, the instruction says to remove presentational and navigational artifacts. The URL here is part of the content about the profile, so maybe it should stay. But in the example, the link is written as [View Profile](url).
Wait, the raw webtext has the URL as a link. So in markdown, I can represent that as [View Profile](http://...). The time and copyright notice are probably noise, so I'll remove those.
So the structure in markdown should be:
- Header for the username
- Section about the user with bullet points for home waters, join date, etc.
- Statistics
- Contact Info, linking the instant message if applicable. But the user said to strip away meta-content like send message links. So maybe just mention that instant messaging is available but not the actual link.
Wait, the original text under contact info says "Instant Messaging" and then a line that says "Send an Instant Message..." but the note says to remove all meta-content. So in the example, the assistant included [Instant Messaging](...) but maybe the user wants to just mention it without a link. Hmm, the example given in the user's instructions might have a link for the profile page, which makes sense as it's part of the content.
But the user's instruction says to remove presentational and navigational artifacts. The "Send an Instant Message..." is a navigational link, so I should not include that. So under contact info, just the method (Instant Messaging) and maybe the page URL.
Wait, the profile's URL is part of the content. The user's example response includes a link to the profile page, which is okay. So I'll include that as a clickable link.
Putting it all together, the markdown would have headings for sections like About 2HandTheSalt, Statistics, and Contact Info, with bullet points for each key detail. The copyright and time at the bottom are noise and should be omitted.
I should check if the "Total Posts" field has a value. In the raw text, it's listed under "Total Posts" but there's no actual number provided. Maybe the user intended it to be there but left it blank. Since the data isn't present, perhaps omit that line unless the user wants placeholders. But the example in the user's previous response by the assistant included the bullet points even without values.
So the final markdown would look like:

I was pretty excited to play this game!!!!! Once I got it, the graphics were ok... and the fun part is you can actually chop and stir etc. The downside is, there's not that many things to cook. and some of it is pretty difficult (controls). once you complete the recipies, it has you do them all over again to get a gold bagde... lame! Some of the actions get boring...chopping, cutting...over and over. It'd be cool if you could actually make up you're own stuff, or plate you're own food as well. OVERALL, i took t his game back the next day. You'll probably have fun with it as a party game, or when you have company as somethng to do. Not just for one on one in my opinion. i'd say buy it pre-owned that way if you don't like it you can always trade it for another game for the same amount.

my mom loves watching the food network, and i think this is perfect for her, i am thinking of giving it to her for christmas, or her birthday, but when she sees it she will get a heart attack, that she has her very own cooking game.

Cook or be cooked is a very interesting game. You get to cook spaghetti and meatballs, fish, pancakes, and much more. I loved this game for lots of reasons. One reason was that the game looked so real. I felt that I was actually in the game playing as somebody else. Another reason is because I love to cook. Anyone who loves to cook as much as I do should buy this game as soon as possible. Another reason is because they challenge you. They see how much support and effort you put into making your food the best that it can be. When you mess up one person says "I could have done better than that." (I am not to sure if that is what they said exacty) and another person says "you'll do better next time." The last reason is because you actually get to chop and stir and move your hands around in the game. Unlike other games Cook or Be Cooked gets you up and ready to go. They make your hands move around. Examples: You can chop the edges of the broccoli off so that you can boil it or something else. You can move the pan around so the oil can get to all sides of the pan. The only dissapointing part of this game was that you only had 12 dishes to prepare and cook. I wished there would be more dishes so that I could play the game longer. Other than that this is an excellent game!

This game is perfect for: party gamers
This game is pretty good its just so short. Don't get me wrong i love cooking and this dose bring over 30 recipes but i beat it in a couple of days. I just wish they put more recipes. It is good though to refer to when you are cooking. So for the most part its a good game and for the price they have its a good buy. So if you like cooking this is a good game to get.

Recently bought this came for my wife. Amazing how hard it was to find in stock! After all of the wait she has been fairly impressed. The controls are pretty good (takes some practice to get use to - but that is the case for most Wii games), graphics and sound are decent for the Wii, but its the realism and fun factor that makes the game what it is. The game is all about timing. Doing things with the right precision can be tricky. I wouldn't really recommend this for really young kids but some may get the hang of it. I have not really played many games of this nature but it has been quite enjoyable so far. The instructions/guidance built into the game really make for a smooth transition into the kitchen. Who knows, maybe I will even learn to cook! :)

I love real cooking and the food network so I thought this game would be good...boy was I wrong!!! I beat the game in less than a week. It is nearly impossible to make the dishes perfect! Bottom line, do not buy this game!!!

Review 8 for Food Network: Cook or Be Cooked
looks great
Posted on:11/2/09
GamerQueen
I cant wait till this game comes out. I love watching the food network channel and Im an aspiring chef. I think this game will be fun for people who enjoy cooking or watching the food network channel. But If your not really either one of those the game might be seen as boring.

I was excited to play but found the controls difficult and the content repetitive. After completing recipes, the game repeats them to earn a gold badge, which I found boring. I returned the game the next day. Consider buying pre-owned to minimize loss if not a perfect fit.

Despite initial excitement, the game's limited recipe variety and repetitive gameplay led to disappointment. Chopping/cutting mechanics feel repetitive, and completing recipes multiple times for gold badges is underwhelming. Recommended as a party game but returned after one day.

I was pretty excited to play this game! The graphics were okay, and the motion controls allowed chopping and stirring with the Wii. However, there were few recipes to cook, and some levels were frustratingly difficult. Completing recipes only had you repeat them for gold badges, which felt repetitive. Actions like chopping got boring over time. I returned the game the next day and would recommend buying it secondhand if unsure.

I loved this game! The realistic cooking experience made me feel immersed in the kitchen. My favorite features:
- Interactive chopping, stirring, and movement
- Varied recipes (spaghetti, fish, pancakes, etc.)

The only downside was only 12 dishes available. I wish there were more recipes to increase gameplay longevity. Despite that, it’s an excellent game for cooking enthusiasts!

I bought this for my wife, who found it challenging but fun. The controls require practice, but the simulation-style gameplay adds realism.

I was pretty excited to play this game!!!!! Once I got it, the graphics were ok... and the fun part is you can actually chop and stir etc. The downside is, there's not that many things to cook. and some of it is pretty difficult (controls). once you complete the recipies, it has you do them all over again to get a gold bagde... lame! Some of the actions get boring...chopping, cutting...over and over. It'd be cool if you could actually make up you're own stuff, or plate you're own food as well. OVERALL, i took t his game back the next day. You'll probably have fun with it as a party game, or when you have company as somethng to do. Not just for one on one in my opinion. i'd say buy it pre-owned that way if you don't like it you can always trade it for another game for the same amount.

**Review:**
Cook or be cooked is a very interesting game. You get to cook spaghetti and meatballs, fish, pancakes, and much more. I loved this game for lots of reasons. One reason was that the game looked so real. I felt that I was actually in the game playing as somebody else. Another reason is because I love to cook. Anyone who loves to cook as much as I do should buy this game as soon as possible. Another reason is because they challenge you. They see how much support and effort you put into making your food the best that it can be. When you mess up one person says "I could have done better than that." (I am not to sure if that is what they said exacty) and another person says "you'll do better next time." The last reason is because you actually get to chop and stir and move your hands around in the game. Unlike other games Cook or Be Cooked gets you up and ready to go. They make your hands move around. Examples: You can chop the edges of the broccoli off so that you can boil it or something else. You can move the pan around so the oil can get to all sides of the pan. The only dissapointing part of this game was that you only had 12 dishes to prepare and cook. I wished there would be more dishes so that I could play the game longer. Other than that this is an excellent game!

This game is pretty good its just so short. Don't get me wrong i love cooking and this dose bring over 30 recipes but i beat it in a couple of days. I just wish they put more recipes. It is good though to refer to when you are cooking. So for the most part its a good game and for the price they have its a good buy. So if you like cooking this is a good game to get.

### Review 5 for Food Network: Cook or Be Cooked

**Review:**
I was pretty excited to play this game!!!!! Once I got it, the graphics were ok... and the fun part is you can actually chop and stir etc. The downside is, there's not that many things to cook. and some of it is pretty difficult (controls). once you complete the recipies, it has you do them all over again to get a gold bagde... lame! Some of the actions get boring...chopping, cutting...over and over. It'd be cool if you could actually make up you're own stuff, or plate you're own food as well. OVERALL, i took t his game back the next day. You'll probably have fun with it as a party game, or when you have company as somethng to do. Not just for one on one in my opinion. i'd say buy it pre-owned that way if you don't like it you can always trade it for another game for the same amount.

**Review:**
Recently bought this came for my wife. Amazing how hard it was to find in stock! After all of the wait she has been fairly impressed. The controls are pretty good (takes some practice to get use to - but that is the case for most Wii games), graphics and sound are decent for the Wii, but its the realism and fun factor that makes the game what it is. The game is all about timing. Doing things with the right precision can be tricky. I wouldn't really recommend this for really young kids but some may get the hang of it. I have not really played many games of this nature but it has been quite enjoyable so far. The instructions/guidance built into the game really make for a smooth transition into the kitchen. Who knows, maybe I will even learn to cook! :)

I love real cooking and the food network so I thought this game would be good...boy was I wrong!!! I beat the game in less than a week. It is nearly impossible to make the dishes perfect! Bottom line, do not buy this game!!!

**Review:**
I cant wait till this game comes out. I love watching the food network channel and Im an aspiring chef. I think this game will be fun for people who enjoy cooking or watching the food network channel. But If your not really either one of those the game might be seen as boring.

I used the BSOD as a wallpaper for a while in one of my many VL installs, when I used it @ college. Sure fooled some people with that one.
Something else that's funny is a wallpaper with a messagebox on it. People will try clicking it to make it go away quite a couple of times before realizing it's not going to work.

My favorite screen saver is a prank on your co-workers ... do this only if you can't be fired over it! Angry
If they leave their workstation unlocked over lunch, take a snapshot of their screen.
Then use *that* as their desktop and lock the machine. Shocked
"Oh ****! My machine is locked up again!"
(They come to expect that once in a while with 'dows, eh?)

Set up a new computer with VL-Light and used a Windows 2000 BSOD as wallpaper.
Everyone who tried to use it said, *“Hey, there’s something wrong with your computer!”* 😝

Catching "Linux" reveals an error in that error routine - it should read:
"Unhandled Exceptional Error"

LOL, I took a photo of the display. I should post it here when I get a chance.
Related to MS bugs.....I was at the Music Project display in Seattle as well. They have some "jam rooms" with electronic instruments attached to computers. One of the jam rooms had the screen that showed a BSOD!

I used the BSOD as a wallpaper for a while in one of my many VL installs, when I used it @ college. Sure fooled some people with that one.
Something else that's funny is a wallpaper with a messagebox on it. People will try clicking it to make it go away quite a couple of times before realizing it's not going to work.

HOOT !
My favorite screen saver is a prank on your co-workers ... do this only if you can't be fired over it! 😠
If they leave their workstation unlocked over lunch, take a snapshot of their screen.
Then use *that* as their desktop and lock the machine. 😱
"Oh ****! My machine is locked up again!"
(They come to expect that once in a while with 'dows, eh?)

so i got our shiny new pII-450 installed at work over the weekend, set it up as an application computer with vl-light. thought about this forum and set the wallpaper as windows 2000 bsod. every single person that went to use that computer to put in an application said "hey, there's something wrong with your computer!" hehehe

Nonsmooth analysis: differential calculus of nondifferentiable mappings
Author: A. D. Ioffe
Journal: Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 266 (1981), 1-56

Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: A new approach to local analysis of nonsmooth mappings from one Banach space into another is suggested. The approach is essentially based on the use of set-valued mappings of a special kind, called fans, for local approximation. Convex sets of linear operators provide an example of fans. Generally, fans can be considered a natural set-valued extension of linear operators. The first part of the paper presents a study of fans; the second is devoted to calculus and includes extensions of the main theorems of classical calculus.

## Abstract
A new approach to local analysis of nonsmooth mappings between Banach spaces is introduced, utilizing set-valued mappings called *fans* for local approximation. Fans are characterized as natural set-valued generalizations of linear operators, with convex sets of linear operators serving as key examples. The paper is divided into two parts: the first develops foundational theory for fans, while the second applies this framework to establish extensions of classical calculus theorems in the context of nonsmooth mappings.

The approach is essentially based on the use of set-valued mappings of a special kind, called *fans*, for local approximation. Convex sets of linear operators provide an example of fans. Generally, fans can be considered a natural set-valued extension of linear operators. The first part of the paper presents a study of fans; the second is devoted to calculus and includes extensions of the main theorems of classical calculus.

**User Question:**
"I had a baby 4 months ago by C-section and have a **lump just above my navel**, stretching from my breast to my belly button. It is **not painful** but stands out. I noticed it immediately after delivery but assumed it was normal postpartum swelling. Some friends say it isn’t, and I'm worried. My 8-week check-up involved no abdominal examination—**the doctor only checked my ankles and breasts** (breastfeeding). I’m 21 and haven’t received a smear test. Is this something to worry about? If so, what could it be?"

# Lump After C-Section: What Could It Be?
## User's Question
"I had a baby 4 months ago by C-section and have a lump just above my naval (from my breast to my belly button) that isn't painful but stands out. I noticed it immediately after birth and assumed it was normal, but friends now say this isn't typical. I’m getting worried. My 8-week check-up focused on my ankles and breastfeeding—my stomach wasn’t examined. Additionally, I haven’t been sent for a smear test. Is this something to worry about, and if so, what could it be?"
## Key Observations
- **Symptoms**:
- Lump located between breast and belly button.
- Non-painful but visible.
- Observed immediately after C-section.
- **Medical History**:
- Delivered via C-section 4 months ago.
- No postpartum stomach examination during 8-week check-up.
- No smear test recommended.
- **Concerns**:
- Uncertainty if symptoms are normal post-C-section.
- Friends’ conflicting opinions.
- Inadequate medical evaluation.
## Follow-Up Actions
- Consider consulting a gynecologist or primary care provider for a physical examination.
- Request imaging (e.g., ultrasound) to assess the lump if it persists or causes worry.
- Clarify the timing and necessity of a smear test with a healthcare professional.
## Notes
- The user is 21 years old.
- Emphasizes the need for clear medical guidance to address anxiety.

### User Inquiry
**Concern:** Lump near naval after C-section
- **Surgical history:** Delivered a baby 4 months ago via C-section
- **Physical description:**
- Lump located from breast to belly button, just above naval
- Not painful but visually noticeable
- Observed immediately postpartum initially dismissed as "normal"
- **Medical follow-up:**
- 8-week postpartum check-up: Doctor inspected ankles and breasts (breastfeeding evaluation) but did **not examine the abdomen**
- 21 years old, no smear test yet
- **Social input:** Friends provided conflicting opinions, causing increased anxiety
---
### Key Questions
1. Is a persistent abdominal lump post-C-section typical?
2. Should unexamined abdominal changes prompt further medical investigation?
3. Are there potential complications (e.g., hernias, scar tissue, hematoma) requiring attention?
---
### Expert Guidance Recommendation
Consult a healthcare provider for:
- Physical examination of the abdominal lump
- Evaluation of postpartum recovery progress
- Assessment of appropriate screening timelines (e.g., smear tests based on medical history)

# Postpartum Abdominal Lump: Concerns and Next Steps
## User Inquiry
"I had a baby 4 months ago via C-section and noticed a lump just above my naval extending from my breast to my belly button. While not painful, it stands out prominently. Friends are raising concerns, and I’m now worried. At my 8-week postpartum check-up, the doctor only examined my ankles and breasts for breastfeeding, not my abdomen. I’m 21 and haven’t been offered a smear test yet. Is this normal, and what could this be?"
---
### **Key Points to Consider**
1. **Possible Causes of the Lump**
- **Hernia**: A common post-C-section complication, where tissue protrudes through weakened abdominal muscles. If the lump is firm, soft, or bulges with strain (e.g., coughing), surgical review is critical.
- **Diastasis Recti**: Separation of abdominal muscles from pregnancy, often felt as a ridge-like bulge worse when sitting up. Generally benign but may affect core stability.
- **Abdominal Wall Injury**: Swelling or fluid accumulation around the C-section scar. Less likely 4 months postpartum but possible.
- **Infection/Healing Complications**: Rare after 4 months but possible if redness, warmth, or discharge is present.
2. **Postpartum Care Gaps**
- **Inadequate Postpartum Exam**: Post-C-section check-ups should include abdominal assessment. The oversight highlights the need for a follow-up with a healthcare provider (e.g., gynecologist or general surgeon).
- **Pap Smear Delay**: Routine cervical cancer screening is typically recommended 3–6 months postpartum (depending on guidelines). Doctors may delay this as labor can cause cervix irritation. Clarify with your provider if this is overdue.
3. **When to Seek Immediate Care**
- If the lump becomes **painful, tender**, or **consumer**,
- If it feels **pulsating** (could indicate an aortic aneurysm, though rare in youth),
- If new symptoms like **bleeding** or **fever** arise.
---
### **Next Steps**
1. **Request a Referral**: Ask for a consultation with a gynecologist or general surgeon for a detailed abdominal and pelvic exam.
2. **Imaging**: If the cause is unclear, an **abdominal ultrasound** or **MRI** may be useful to assess hernias or muscle separation.
3. **Advocate for Care**: Politely emphasize the need for a thorough postpartum assessment and clarify timelines for required screenings (e.g., pap smear).
---
### **Community Response**
Users in postpartum forums often share similar concerns. Prioritize medical evaluation over general advice, as abdominal changes post-C-section can vary significantly from natural recovery to complications requiring intervention.
*Note: This is not medical advice. Always consult a licensed healthcare provider for personalized care.*

**User Query:**
I had a baby 4 months ago via C-section and have a lump just above my naval, extending from my breast to belly button. It's not painful but is noticeable. I noticed it immediately after birth but believed it was normal initially. Friends now suggest otherwise, and I'm becoming worried. At my 8-week check-up, the doctor only examined my breasts and ankles (related to breastfeeding) but did not assess my stomach. At 21, I also haven’t been offered a smear test. Is this concerning, and what might it indicate?

« Firefox, you're annoying me again!Take a tablet »
Tue, May 15, 2012
[Icon][Icon]Open URLs from the CLI
• Post categories: Omni, FOSS, Programming, Helpful
Despite the rise of bulletin boards, social media, wikis, and god knows what other means of communication the Web has given rise to, programmers still rely heavily on Old Faithful: IRC.
Personally, I tend to be logged on to over a dozen channels at any one time, via irssi - a command-line IRC client. This has the advantage that I can leave it running in a screen session and stay logged in permanently, and access it from anywhere I have a net connection.
Most of the people I work with use also use irssi, but there's also some fondness for xchat. One feature it has that no command-line client supports is that you can click on a link in xchat and it opens in your browser. Using irssi, I have to copy & paste it manually into a browser.
This got slightly tedious recently, so I devised a shortcut. It's nice and simple, just a few lines of perl called from xbindkeys. All I have to do now is double-click on a link to select it, then press a shortcut key, and the link opens in a new tab in Firefox. Simple as that.
If anyone else wants to be able to do that, the code is available below:
...
#!/usr/bin/perl
# Take URL from clipboard & open it in firefox
use strict;
use warnings;
use Clipboard;
# Ugly fixify of cliboard order
if ('Clipboard::Xclip' eq $Clipboard::driver) {
no warnings 'redefine'; *Clipboard::Xclip::all_selections = sub {
qw(clipboard primary buffer secondary)
};
}
# Get the URL from clipboard
my $url = Clipboard->paste;
# Pass it to firefox
system("firefox $url");
I have this script get called by xbindkeys, using the shortcut Start-f since it happened to be free. Works well!

I still usually just C-a [ copy the URI from irssi manually, then either open a shell or switch to a pre-existing one, type "firefox ", C-a ] paste, type " &", and send the command. If Firefox is not already running, I start it before doing this.

An excellent strategy, with just two drawbacks: It takes longer than a quick double-click; and I run my screen on a remote server, not my local machine :)

IIRC X-Chat can open link in new tab, but this requires passing URL in some parameter to firefox.
"firefox -new-tab $url"
But now I see that depending on configuration of Firefox your solution would also do the right thing.

rxvt-unicode (a.k.a. urxvt) comes with an extension to do this. Just put the following in your ~/.Xresources:
URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,matcher
URxvt.urlLauncher: /usr/bin/firefox
Voila, clickable URLs.

My terminal emulator (XFCE Terminal) handles this for me, any text it recognises as URLs (in any output, vim, irssi etc.) are clickable using middle click and open in my default browser.
I think it has worked like this for years and I don't remember having to configure anything apart from choosing the default browser in the general desktop settings.

Nice to know there are a few terminals out there that can do clickable links. I actually prefer mine non-clickable for ease of C&P but that may change in future..

# Firefox, you're annoying me again! Take a tablet
**By oneandoneis2**
*Posted: Tue, May 15, 2012*
**Tags:** #Omni #FOSS #Programming #Helpful
Despite the rise of bulletin boards, social media, wikis, and god knows what other means of communication the Web has given rise to, programmers still rely heavily on Old Faithful: IRC.
Personally, I tend to be logged on to over a dozen channels at any one time, via `irssi` - a command-line IRC client. This has the advantage that I can leave it running in a `screen` session and stay logged in permanently, and access it from anywhere I have a net connection.
Most of the people I work with use also use `irssi`, but there's also some fondness for `xchat`. One feature it has that no command-line client supports is that you can click on a link in `xchat` and it opens in your browser. Using `irssi`, I have to copy & paste it manually into a browser.
This got slightly tedious recently, so I devised a shortcut. It's nice and simple, just a few lines of Perl called from `xbindkeys`. All I have to do now is double-click on a link to select it, then press a shortcut key, and the link opens in a new tab in Firefox. Simple as that.
If anyone else wants to be able to do that, the code is available below:
```perl
#!/usr/bin/perl
# Take URL from clipboard & open it in firefox
use strict;
use warnings;
use Clipboard;
# Ugly fixify of cliboard order
if ('Clipboard::Xclip' eq $Clipboard::driver) {
no warnings 'redefine';
*Clipboard::Xclip::all_selections = sub {
qw(clipboard primary buffer secondary)
};
}
# Get the URL from clipboard
my $url = Clipboard->paste;
# Pass it to firefox
system("firefox $url");
```
I have this script get called by `xbindkeys`, using the shortcut `Start-f` since it happened to be free. Works well!

I'll follow the markdown conversion rules to process this content. Let me extract and format the main article and comments in markdown:
1. Identify and extract the main content about opening URLs from the CLI
2. Extract the code snippet
3. Include the relevant comments
4. Remove all advertising, navigation, and tracking elements
5. Maintain the structure and hierarchy of the information
6. Use appropriate markdown formatting
Let's go:

# Open URLs from the CLI

# OneAndOneIs2: Open URLs from the CLI
* Автор: [OneAndOneIs2](http://geekblog.oneandoneis2.org/)
* Дата: 15.05.2012
## Введение
Несмотря на развитие новостей, социальных сетей и вики, программисты до сих пор активно используют IRC.
Автор описывает свой опыт работы в `irssi` (клиент командной строки) и решает проблему открытия ссылок из чата.
### Задача
Находить и открывать URL из буфера обменаFirefox-раз вручную(например, скриншоты и код). После долгих усилий он придумал, как сократить этот процесс:
#### Фраза
> дважды кликнуть по ссылке, использовать комбинацию клавиш чтобы открыть её в новой вкладке Firefox.
---
## Решение
Автор использует Perl-скрипт, вызывающий Firefox из xbindkeys. Вот код:
```perl
#!/usr/bin/perl
# Get URL from clipboard & open it in firefox
use strict;
use warnings;
use Clipboard;
# Fix clipboard ordering for Xclip
if ('Clipboard::Xclip' eq $Clipboard::driver) {
no warnings 'redefine';
*Clipboard::Xclip::all_selections = sub {
qw(clipboard primary buffer secondary)
};
}
# Extract URL from buffer
my $url = Clipboard->paste;
# Взять Firefox
system("firefox $url");
```

### woddfellow2 (13:27)
Называет классическую схему:
`C-a [ copy` → найти Terminal → `firefox` + вставить → `&` для фонового запуска.
**Ответ автора (13:59)**
> Звучит отлично, но:
1. Занимает больше времени.
2. Автор отображает экран на удалённый сервер.
---
### passstab (17:01)
Совет: использовать `tmux`, красивее и чище `screen`.
**Ответ (17:09):**
> Скрин с тех пор в обсерватория, причёсывать его не буду.
---
### Jakub Narębski (19:23)
Может использовать `-new-tab` параметр при запуске.
**Фикс:** `"firefox -new-tab $url"`
---
### Mark Gardner (22:17)
Он использует `urxvt` с `matcher` плагином:
```plaintext
URxvt.perl-ext-common: default,matcher
URxvt.urlLauncher: /usr/bin/firefox
```
---
### Scott Thomson (09:46)
> XFCE Terminal умеет открывать ссылки при клике мышью (не запускал команд вручную).
---
### Cliff Stanford (15:01)
Предложение использовать `Browser::Open` вместо напрямую вызова `firefox`.
**Оценка автора:**
> В будущем, возможно, обновлю.

# Shift Lock on Gear Selector for Auto

**Question:**
Hi Guys,
I have recently bought an E90 lci 325i with an automatic box and have been loving it so far. This is my first automatic car, and I wanted to know: Do we have to press the button on the gear selector every time when changing from D (Drive), N (Neutral), R (Reverse), or P (Park)?
I apologize if this is a basic question—just trying to understand automatic transmissions better.
Thanks!

# Shift Lock on Gear Selector for Auto (E90 LCI 325i)
**Question:**
Does the **Shift Lock** mechanism require pressing the button on the gear selector every time when shifting between **Drive (D)**, **Neutral (N)**, **Reverse (R)**, and **Park (P)**?
**Context:**
- Owner of a **2013+ E90 LCI 325i** with automatic transmission
- First automatic vehicle
- Seeking clarification on standard operation of shift lock mechanism

# Shift Lock On Gear Selector For Auto - E90 LCI 325i
**User Question:**
Do I need to press the shift lock button on the gear selector when changing between D, N, R, P in my E90 LCI 325i automatic?
**Answer:**
1. **Shift Lock Purpose:**
- A safety feature to prevent accidental gear changes in:
- **Park (P)** to other gears
- **Reverse (R)** to other gears
- **Drive (D)/Neutral (N)** while in motion
2. **E90 LCI Specific Mechanics:**
- **From Park (P):**
- *Required:* Press **brake pedal** to release shift lock
- *Optional:* Some trim levels include a **shift lock button** (press while braking)
- **To Park (P):**
- Car must be stationary, foot on brake
- No pressing required, unless manual override is needed
- **Between D/N/R:**
- *Diesel models only:* May require brake to lock out reverse while in motion
- *Gasoline models:* Usually no lock involved
- **Reverse Engagement:**
- Designed to prevent accidental shifting to reverse at speed
- Lock automatically releases below 5-10 km/h
3. **Safety Note:**
- BMW's engineering prioritizes driver awareness (e.g., brake-to-shift transition)
- Modern models integrate Park Brake Auto-Release (press to move from P to D/R)
4. **Typical Sequence:**
- Stop completely
- Apply pressure to brake pedal
- Shift lever will smoothly transition between gears
**Conclusion:** Appreciate the mechanical safety design - required controls align with driving conditions, reducing unintentional shifts while maintaining smooth operation. Your first automatic experience is already on the right track!

> *Thanks..*
**Answer (No_Country):**
Yes, you must press the button when shifting **from Drive (D)** to any other gear (Reverse, Neutral, Park). This is a safety feature to prevent accidental gear changes while driving. When shifting **to Drive**, the press is not required.
**Note:** Always ensure the vehicle is stationary before shifting into Drive or Reverse, and apply the brake pedal for safety.

**User Inquiry**
*insane79 (02/04/2013)*
Greetings to the forum community,
As a recent owner of a BMW E90 LCI 325i automatic transmission, I have a fundamental question regarding the shift lock mechanism. Key points:
- New to automatic transmissions
- Inquires whether the button on the gear selector *must* be pressed during gear changes between D, N, R, and P.
- Context: This is a first experience with an automatic vehicle.
**Additional Context**
The post highlights the user's transition to automatic driving and seeks confirmation on operational nuances for the BMW's shift selectors. No technical details about the button's functionality were provided in the original question.
*(Original post formatting simplified to remove interface elements and redundant metadata.)*

Yoshi’s Blend Brings Hope to Japan
02/06/2012
This incredible mini-documentary tells the heartwarming story of Professor Yoshi Masuda and his effort to bring coffee and community to the tsunami and earthquake stricken areas of east Japan. Yoshi wanted to help his country by offering what he knows and loves—coffee. He felt the best way he could help was to bring a sense of normalcy to those recovering from the devastation with the fragrance and aroma of coffee.
Armed with a Chemex, hand grinder, portable stove and his record player, Yoshi set out in a bright orange VW bus to open “Hope Café” wherever he found people in need of a spiritual and physical boost. Along the way, Yoshi also donates coffee starter kits to help establish community coffee shops after he’s left. Inspiring and humbling. Take eight minutes and watch this—you won’t regret it.
When you consider that human sound is also a wave and it could have impact as strong as tsunami that change a life of people. As you say something and that really changes people—the way how they live, the way how they regard their life as it is. Our human voice is, I would say, stronger than tsunami. –Yoshi Masuda

Yoshi wanted to help his country by offering what he knows and loves—coffee. He believed the best way to support recovery was to restore a sense of normalcy through the simple act of sharing coffee, with its fragrance and aroma providing comfort in difficult times.
## A Coffee-Driven Mission
Armed with a Chemex, hand grinder, portable stove, and a record player, Yoshi traveled in a bright orange VW bus to open “Hope Café” in communities in need. His goal was to provide both spiritual and physical sustenance to those recovering from devastation. Alongside his visits, Yoshi donates coffee starter kits to help local communities establish their own coffee shops after he leaves.
## A Thought on Human Connection
Yoshi Masuda reflects:

JOSHUA TREE: Vandals hit historic Barker Dam

Barker Dam, a popular historic feature at Joshua Tree National Park, has been closed because of vandalism.
Barker Dam, a popular historic feature at Joshua Tree National Park, has been closed because of vandalism. (National Park Service)
Cattle ranchers built Barker Dam more than 100 years ago in one of the most beautiful areas of Joshua Tree National Park. The dam, near Hidden Valley campground, holds water for bighorn sheep and other wildlife, and it's set among an otherworldly jumble of massive rocks.
It is a popular area for day hikes and an easy way to view some of the natural and historic wonders that make Joshua Tree special.
So it was with dismay that I found a news release on the park's website that said the dam, the actual structure, had been closed to the public because of vandalism. There's no use speculating about the mindset of people who would deface a piece of history -- it could be ignorance or maliciousness or just plain stupidity.
The National Park Service says the dam will be closed 130 feet upstream from the structure and 180 feet downstream. The nearby Barker Dam Nature Trail remains open.
Do we have to limit access to everything that's special to protect it from the small percentage of people who don't value history or natural beauty and who don't care about the world they're leaving for generations to come?
To see some photographs that give you a hint of the area's natural beauty, visit this site or watch the slideshow here. Many of the photo essays I found of the area included shots of Indian rock art -- which also had been vandalized.

# Barker Dam Vandalism Closes Historic Site
Barker Dam, a historic feature located in one of the most scenic areas of Joshua Tree National Park, has been closed to the public due to vandalism. The 100-year-old structure, built by cattle ranchers near the Hidden Valley campground, serves as a water source for bighorn sheep and other wildlife. Surrounded by the park's iconic rock formations, the dam is a popular destination for day hikes and offers a glimpse into the area’s natural and historical significance.
According to the National Park Service, public access is restricted 130 feet upstream and 180 feet downstream from the dam. The adjacent Barker Dam Nature Trail remains open. The closure follows reports of the dam being defaced, with the incident attributed to ignorance, malicious intent, or recklessness. The article also notes that Indian rock art in the region has previously been vandalized.
The writer questions whether increasing restrictions on access to protect natural and cultural treasures is the solution, lamenting the impact of a minority on preservation efforts for future generations.

# Barker Dam Vandalized, Closure Imposed at Joshua Tree National Park
Barker Dam, a historic feature within Joshua Tree National Park, has been closed to the public following vandalism to its structure. Constructed over 100 years ago by cattle ranchers, the dam is located in one of the park's most scenic areas near Hidden Valley campground. It serves as a vital water source for bighorn sheep and other wildlife, surrounded by surreal rock formations that attract hikers and nature enthusiasts.
The National Park Service implemented a closure spanning 130 feet upstream and 180 feet downstream from the damaged structure. While the dam remains off-limits, the adjacent Barker Dam Nature Trail is open to the public. Authorities speculate the vandalism could stem from ignorance, malicious intent, or carelessness, noting it jeopardizes historical and ecological heritage for future generations.
Visitors can view the area's natural beauty through select photograph collections shared online, which sometimes include imagery of ancient Indian rock art—another victim of similar acts of vandalism. The incident raises broader questions about balancing access to special sites with the need to protect them from destructive behavior by a small minority of individuals.

# Barker Dam in Joshua Tree National Park Closed Due to Vandalism
Barker Dam, a historic and popular feature at [Joshua Tree National Park](https://www.press-enterprise.com), has been closed to the public following acts of vandalism. The structure, originally built over 100 years ago by cattle ranchers in a picturesque area near Hidden Valley campground, provides water for bighorn sheep and other wildlife amid an "otherworldly jumble of massive rocks."
The dam serves as a key destination for day hikes and showcases some of the park’s natural and historic wonders. While the dam structure itself is closed to visitors, the National Park Service has restricted access to a 130-foot zone upstream and an 180-foot zone downstream. The adjacent Barker Dam Nature Trail remains open for now.
A park news release highlights concerns over the deliberate defacement of historical sites. Visitor access restrictions are being debated to protect such sites from those who disregard their cultural and ecological value. Some photo essays of the area previously featured images of Indigenous rock art, some of which has also been vandalized.
The closure raises broader questions about balancing public access and preservation. As noted in the park’s documentation, actions like these jeopardize the heritage and natural beauty that future generations are entitled to inherit.
For visual context of the area's significance, historical photo archives may provide additional insight, though their content may include evidence of past vandalism.

South Carolina had the cheapest average at $3.24 per gallon. Hawaii was the highest at an average $4.42 for the year.
Last year, prices rose to about $4 per gallon in 13 states - including Minnesota.

You could consider it an organ transplant — albeit a temporary one.
In a few weeks the Grande Page pipe organ will leave the Embassy Theatre for the first time in 26 years. It's going to Indianapolis, where Carlton Smith Pipe Organ Restorations will repair and fine-tune the instrument.
But don't despair — you'll get one more chance to hear it before it's shipped off to Indy. Cletus Goens will play the Grande Page pipe organ noon-4 p.m. Sunday at the Embassy, 121 W. Jefferson Blvd. Admission is free as a part of Be a Tourist in Your Own Hometown. You also can go on a self-guided tour of the Embassy and Indiana Hotel lobby, built in 1928.
It is expected to take eight months to repair the Grand Page organ, which will be loaded onto a truck and shipped Oct. 8 to Indianapolis. The cost of the repair is expected to be $68,000, which includes a $27,075 Limited Asset Improvement grant from the Foellinger Foundation, according to an Embassy news release.
The Grand Page pipe organ is the reason the Embassy was saved from being torn down in 1974, according to the release. A group of organ enthusiasts rallied the community to save the building.
During the regular season the organ is played during black-and-white silent movies, the Festival of Trees, and every year at the Buddy Nolan tribute concert. Nolan was one of the organists who helped save the Embassy.
Installed in 1928, the Embassy's Grande Page pipe organ is one of three of its size built, and one of two still in its original home, according to the Embassy website. It was built by the Page Organ Company of Lima, Ohio.
In the 1920s theater pipe organs played an important role in accompanying the silent movies of the day.

Kaishintō
Alternate titles: Constitutional Reform Party; Progressive Party; Rikken Kaishintō; Shimpotō Party
Kaishintō, in full Rikken Kaishintō, English Constitutional Reform Party, a leading Japanese political party from its founding in 1882 by the democratic leader Ōkuma Shigenobu until its merger with several smaller parties in 1896. It generally represented the urban elite of intellectuals, industrialists, and merchants. Its platform, like that of its main opponent, the Jiyūtō (“Liberal”) Party, called for the adoption of parliamentary democracy, with a constitutional monarchy functioning along British lines. In the first elections to the Diet (national parliament) in 1890, the Kaishintō emerged as the second largest party after the Jiyūtō. The Kaishintō called for strengthening a parliament elected by the richer classes in order to check the patronage powers of the central government.
The party adopted an increasingly nationalistic tone in the 1890s, advocating Japanese intervention in Korea and confrontation with China on the eve of the Sino-Japanese War (1894–95). In 1896 it merged with several smaller nationalistic parties to form the Shimpotō (“Progressive”) Party).

# Kaishintō
Alternate titles: Constitutional Reform Party; Progressive Party; Rikken Kaishintō; Shimpotō Party
Kaishintō (*in full* Rikken Kaishintō, *English* Constitutional Reform Party) was a leading Japanese political party established in 1882 by democratic leader Ōkuma Shigenobu. It endured until its 1896 merger with smaller parties. The party typically represented urban elites, including intellectuals, industrialists, and merchants. Its platform aligned with parliamentary democracy under a constitutional monarchy modeled after Britain—similar to its rival, the *Jiyūtō* (“Liberal”) Party. In the first Diet (national parliament) elections in 1890, the Kaishintō became the second-largest party after the *Jiyūtō*. Advocates pushed for a parliamentary system that would curb government patronage by empowering an elected body chosen by wealthier classes.
By the 1890s, the party adopted an increasingly nationalistic stance, promoting Japanese intervention in Korea and confrontation with China ahead of the Sino-Japanese War (1894–95). In 1896, it merged with smaller nationalistic factions to form the *Shimpotō* (“Progressive”) Party.

It represented urban elites, including intellectuals, industrialists, and merchants, advocating for parliamentary democracy modeled on British constitutional monarchy. In the 1890 national Diet elections, it emerged as the second-largest party after the rival *Jiyūtō* (Liberal Party), pushing for a parliament elected by wealthier classes to constrain central government power.
During the 1890s, the party adopted a nationalistic stance, supporting Japanese intervention in Korea and confrontation with China before the Sino-Japanese War (1894–95). By 1896, it merged with other nationalistic factions to form the *Shimpotō* (Progressive Party).

# Kaishintō
**Alternate Titles**: Constitutional Reform Party; Progressive Party; Rikken Kaishintō; Shimpotō Party
The **Kaishintō** (*Rikken Kaishintō*, or "Constitutional Reform Party") was a prominent Japanese political party established in 1882 by Ōkuma Shigenobu. Active until its 1896 merger with smaller parties, it represented urban elites including intellectuals, industrialists, and merchants. Its platform advocated for parliamentary democracy modeled after British constitutional monarchy, aligning closely with its rival, the Jiyūtō ("Liberal") Party.
In the first Diet (national parliament) elections in 1890, the Kaishintō became the second-largest party after the Jiyūtō. The party initially emphasized strengthening parliamentary powers elected by wealthy classes to limit government patronage.
## Policy Shift and Merger
By the 1890s, the Kaishintō adopted a **nationalist stance**, supporting Japanese intervention in Korea and confrontation with China prior to the **First Sino-Japanese War (1894–95)**. This shift culminated in the party's 1896 merger with smaller nationalistic groups to form the **Shimpotō** ("Progressive") Party.

# Kaishintō
**Alternate titles:** Constitutional Reform Party; Progressive Party; Rikken Kaishintō; Shimpotō Party
Kaishintō, in full Rikken Kaishintō, English Constitutional Reform Party, was a leading Japanese political party from its founding in 1882 by the democratic leader Ōkuma Shigenobu until its merger with several smaller parties in 1896. It generally represented the urban elite of intellectuals, industrialists, and merchants. Its platform, like that of its main opponent, the Jiyūtō (“Liberal”) Party, called for the adoption of parliamentary democracy, with a constitutional monarchy functioning along British lines. In the first elections to the Diet (national parliament) in 1890, the Kaishintō emerged as the second largest party after the Jiyūtō. The Kaishintō called for strengthening a parliament elected by the richer classes in order to check the patronage powers of the central government.
In the 1890s, the party adopted an increasingly nationalistic tone, advocating Japanese intervention in Korea and confrontation with China on the eve of the Sino-Japanese War (1894–95). In 1896, it merged with several smaller nationalistic parties to form the Shimpotō (“Progressive”) Party.

The Worst Investment Of My Life
The first year that I used this machine motor went out. Leaked oil after first season, bolts rattled loose.
The second year was worse, many problems, oil Leaked , belts broken and many more things.
This year more problems again, belts, one of the wheels is out of place.
Please do not buy this kind of machine or brand and the customer service, the worst.
In summary, in three years if, I used this machine more than one hour is a lot..
Pros: No Good
Cons: Low Quality, Difficult To Use

Not Worth It
Leaked oil after first season, bolts rattled loose. Instead of shear pins letting go when tarp got caught in the auger, it destroyed the gear box, which has been on back order status for over a year?
Cons: Low Quality, Heavy, Leaks Oil, Geabox Is Weakreplacement On Permanent Back Order

### Jorge A., Stamford, CT (Jan. 10, 2014)
**Rating:** 1 / 5
**Title:** The Worst Investment Of My Life
The first year that I used this machine motor went out. Leaked oil after first season, bolts rattled loose.
The second year was worse, many problems, oil leaked, belts broken and many more things.
This year more problems again, belts, one of the wheels is out of place.
Please do not buy this kind of machine or brand and the customer service, the worst.
In summary, in three years if I used this machine more than one hour is a lot.
- **Pros:** No Good
- **Cons:** Low Quality, Difficult To Use
---
### Mike G., Omaha, NE (Oct. 02, 2013)
**Rating:** 2 / 5
**Title:** Not Worth It
Leaked oil after first season, bolts rattled loose. Instead of shear pins letting go when tarp got caught in the auger, it destroyed the gear box, which has been on back order status for over a year?
- **Cons:** Low Quality, Heavy, Leaks Oil, Geabox Is Weak – replacement On Permanent Back Order

Environment Canada has issued a high health risk warning for Yellowknife and surrounding area because of heavy smoke in the region due to forest fires. In the image taken by the Aqua satellite, the smoke is drifting eastward along normal wind patterns. Fire is an obvious health hazard, but the smoke that comes from fires is not quite so obvious and its effects are insidious.
The smoke released by any type of fire (forest, brush, crop, structure, tires, waste or wood burning) is a mixture of particles and chemicals produced by incomplete burning of carbon-containing materials. All smoke contains carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and particulate matter (PM or soot). Smoke can contain many different chemicals, including aldehydes, acid gases, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, (PAHs), benzene, toluene, styrene, metals and dioxins. The type and amount of particles and chemicals in smoke varies depending on what is burning, how much oxygen is available, and the burn temperature. Exposure to high levels of smoke should be avoided. Individuals are advised to limit their physical exertion if exposure to high levels of smoke cannot be avoided. Individuals with cardiovascular or respiratory conditions (e.g., asthma), fetuses, infants, young children, and the elderly may be more vulnerable to the health effects of .
High values are forecast to persist until this evening (7/23) when a cold front moves across the region and is expected to clear some of the smoke.
There are currently 160 fires burning throughout the Northwest Territories.

## Health Risk Warning
Environment Canada has issued a high health risk warning for Yellowknife and surrounding areas due to heavy smoke from forest fires. In an image captured by the Aqua satellite, the smoke is drifting eastward along normal wind patterns. Smoke from fires is an insidious health hazard, unlike the visible flames.
### Composition and Effects of Smoke
Smoke from fires (forest, brush, crop, structural, tires, waste, or wood burning) contains:
- **Particulate matter (PM or soot)**
- **Gases**: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, aldehydes, acid gases, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and PAHs
- **Organic compounds**: Benzene, toluene, styrene
- **Toxicants**: Metals and dioxins
Health effects depend on fuel type, oxygen availability, and burn temperature. Individuals should avoid high smoke exposure, especially those with cardiovascular/respiratory conditions (e.g., asthma), as well as fetuses, infants, young children, and the elderly.
### Forecast and Current Situation
High air quality values are expected to persist until the evening of July 23, when a cold front will help clear smoke from the region. As of this report, **160 fires** are burning across the Northwest Territories.

I suppose you're correct if you look at it as teaching kids how to program video games, but it looks like they're trying to get them to learn critical and creative thinking in a broad range, rather than xor'ing pixels all day.
If you compare it to art class, where students liberally steal ideas and style from Van Gogh and Matisse (and Bob Ross) yet still learn the basics of how to paint, I think that in the same way students will be able to pick up some basics of the thought processes involved in designing something from scratch, in a variety of disciplines. Even with off-the-shelf software, they will still have to think on the surface of how to render out an environment, build characters or puzzles, and create some sort of user interface and menu system. It'll likely be slapped together and a horrible program, but it could definitely build computer skills for those with a penchant for problem-solving and creative thinking.
I think it's a good idea overall, but the implementation will probably completely fail in the US due to lack of capable teachers.

Indeed. Modding is great. I learned loads from UT modding. It makes understanding OOP much easier as when you start you can relate 'objects' to ingame stuff that you can see, while later you find out that there are many 'objects' that you cannot see at all. It gives a base for AI, it teaches programming of course, it learns you about debugging and performance.
You don't have to create the next countersstrike or whatever, just make something fun. And it will teach you a lot more then sitting in a classroom.

Well, you can use some open-source engines, like Apocalyx or Panda3d, where you can do everything with a scripting language (Lua or Python) and no C/C++ skills are required. Of course this only takes care for rendering and physics, you have to do the AI yourself. (But that's the most intresting part anyway.)

Not funny, but it does raise a point; the ideal environment for this might well be some sort of graphical MUD. I would personally begin with Sauerbraten, and add a nice LUA interface or something, at least as a proof-of-concept. I'm envisioning something like Second Life, but with content creation tools that don't hurt your brain. Why is it that Open Source software nearly always has a shit interface? Even FreeCiv, which gives you tons more control over units and cities than the games on which it is based, makes sophomoric errors resulting in clutter and a minimum window size that won't even permit it to be played on small displays on which Civ, Civ2, and Civ3 at least all work fine on and in fact even remain playable! At least The GIMP has a decent interface... if you compare it to photoshop, the level of confusion and complexity is comparable, people are just used to photoshop. Too bad about that name.

In any job I've worked at, as well as anything I do in my spare time, my "programming" also involved developing the algorithm to do a certain task.
I can see that some simple programming jobs might not need you to develop algorithms. But for those companies that need that - are there really companies where they hire separate computer scientists and programmers, where the former explains the algorithm than the programmer simply does the laborious work of translating algorithms to code?
If you want to talk about maths professors, it's like suggesting we have one guy who works out the maths, and another one who translates that into the mathematical notation...

I suppose you're correct if you look at it as teaching kids how to program video games, but it looks like they're trying to get them to learn critical and creative thinking in a broad range, rather than xor'ing pixels all day.
If you compare it to art class, where students liberally steal ideas and style from Van Gogh and Matisse (and Bob Ross) yet still learn the basics of how to paint, I think that in the same way students will be able to pick up some basics of the thought processes involved in designing something from scratch, in a variety of disciplines. Even with off-the-shelf software, they will still have to think on the surface of how to render out an environment, build characters or puzzles, and create some sort of user interface and menu system. It'll likely be slapped together and a horrible program, but it could definitely build computer skills for those with a penchant for problem-solving and creative thinking.
I think it's a good idea overall, but the implementation will probably completely fail in the US due to lack of capable teachers.

Indeed. Modding is great. I learned loads from UT modding. It makes understanding OOP much easier as when you start you can relate 'objects' to ingame stuff that you can see, while later you find out that there are many 'objects' that you cannot see at all. It gives a base for AI, it teaches programming of course, it learns you about debugging and performance.
You don't have to create the next countersstrike or whatever, just make something fun. And it will teach you a lot more than sitting in a classroom.

Well, you can use some open-source engines, like [Apocalyx](https://apocalypseengine.com) or [Panda3D](https://panda3d.org), where you can do everything with a scripting language (Lua or Python) and no C/C++ skills are required. Of course this only takes care for rendering and physics, you have to do the AI yourself. (But that's the most interesting part anyway.)

Seriously, don't half teach people how to program. If I can teach myself to program in 6th grade, on my own, I'm sure anyone else who has the motivation can learn to program, especially with someone helping them. Teaching them "beginner" languages is just dumb. Teach them an easy language, but one with actual uses. Not some "programming language for girls!" bullshit.

I would personally begin with Sauerbraten, and add a nice LUA interface or something, at least as a proof-of-concept. I'm envisioning something like Second Life, but with content creation tools that don't hurt your brain. Why is it that Open Source software nearly always has a shit interface? Even FreeCiv, which gives you tons more control over units and cities than the games on which it is based, makes sophomoric errors resulting in clutter and a minimum window size that won't even permit it to be played on small displays on which Civ, Civ2, and Civ3 at least all work fine on and in fact even remain playable! At least The GIMP has a decent interface... if you compare it to Photoshop, the level of confusion and complexity is comparable, people are just used to Photoshop. Too bad about that name.

In any job I've worked at, as well as anything I do in my spare time, my "programming" also involved developing the algorithm to do a certain task.
I can see that some simple programming jobs might not need you to develop algorithms. But for those companies that need that - are there really companies where they hire separate computer scientists and programmers, where the former explains the algorithm than the programmer simply does the laborious work of translating algorithms to code?
If you want to talk about maths professors, it's like suggesting we have one guy who works out the maths, and another one who translates that into the mathematical notation...

# Researchers Make a Case For Learning Through Video Game Creation
**By [Soulskill](#) from *the now-third-graders-get-to-experience-crunch-time* category**
Researchers propose that game creation improves critical/creative thinking and computing skills while addressing the digital divide. A team highlights that teaching off-the-shelf game-building tools can empower users to develop problem-solving abilities and broaden IT literacy. This approach bridges unequal access to technology and varied proficiency levels in its usage.

Comparing game creation to art classes, the user argues that even with basic tools, students develop creative and technical skills through environment design, character creation, and puzzle building. Challenges include implementation hurdles in the U.S. due to lack of qualified educators.

Modding, as demonstrated via *Unreal Tournament*, teaches object-oriented programming, debugging, and performance optimization. Practical, hands-on experience outperforms traditional classroom methods.

### Additional Notes
- **By [mdwh2](#) on January 25, 2010 @10:23AM**
The line between algorithm development and programming is blurred in modern workflows. Companies increasingly value integrated roles where programmers simultaneously develop and implement solutions.
- **By [drinkypoo](#) on January 25, 2010 @08:53AM**
Proposed tools like graphical MUDs or improved open-source interfaces (e.g., Sauerbraten with LUA) could balance creativity and usability for educational purposes. Current open-source software often struggles with user-friendly design.

POLISH ARE THE ABSOLUTE SCUM OF THE EARTH
Polaks have tried stealing Vilnus from the Lithuanians, they tried defeating superior nations such as Russia on many occasions, they think they are strong and powerful and smart. Though they can take their bowl-cut hair and shove it deep up their anal passage!
Im glad Stalin did the right thing, he killed those dumb son of a bitch poles and the Germans swept from Poland in less than 28days, even worse than the French. Its nice there is this joke about the ******** polaks attacking the German tanks with horses, because that is what their army is, a big ******* joke, and so is their country and their pride!
So resend this if you agree, and hopefully they all die just like their piece of **** president who got ******* splattered in his Polish "superiorly engineered" plane.
