Prince George's Plaza TDDP TDOZ
Prince George's Plaza Transit District Development Plan (TDDP)
Approved Prince George's Plaza Transit District Development Plan and Transit District Overlay Zoning Map Amendment
is available online now.
A Transit District Development Plan (TDDP) and Transit District Overlay Zone (TDOZ) were approved for the Prince George's Plaza Transit District in 1998 to enhance development opportunities in the vicinity of the Metro station and to promote transit use. The TDDP includes approximately 281 acres of land and included the Prince George's Plaza Metro Green Line Station, the enclosed shopping mall currently known as the Mall at Prince George's, the University Town Center mixed-use residential development, and other properties fronting MD 410 (East West Highway), Belcrest Road, and Toledo Terrace. The predominant land uses in the TDDP are commercial retail, multifamily residential, and office.
Components of a Successful Transit District
Connectivity and Accessibility
: Connectivity between neighborhoods, designated centers, and other resources and amenities is vital to community and County health, economic competitiveness, and quality of life. Even more, a strong pedestrian and bicycle orientation between neighborhood and transit, with adequate room for circulation, and safe street crossings will eliminate barriers and minimize distance and time spent getting to destinations.
Efficient and Minimized Parking
: People who live near transit own fewer cars and drive less. Policies and standards in the transit district should seek to minimize parking to the extent possible, maximizing pedestrian and bicycle access and transit ridership. Parking should be managed in a way that provides revenue for infrastructure and other improvements.
Housing Options
: Transportation is the second largest household expense after housing. Building housing near transit can enhance affordability since households could save on vehicular expenses. A range of housing densities, types, and sizes provides options for all ages and incomes.
Mix of Land Uses
: Compact, mixed-use, walkable design that is consistent with community character helps to ensure efficient use of land.
Multimodal Transit Network with Maximized Transit Ridership
: A comprehensive network of bus and rail service and facilities will assist safe and efficient movement of people while ensuring adequate connections to employment centers in order to maximize ridership.
Public/Open Spaces and Amenities
: Successful public spaces are pedestrian-friendly and welcoming and safe to transit users, nearby residents, and other visitors. Public spaces could provide places for sitting and incorporate landscaping, attractive lighting, fountains, and public art.
Sense of Place and Destination
: Plan Prince George's 2035 Approved General Plan, the County's new general plan, identified Prince George's Plaza as a major regional center, a "destination and origin for regional workers and residents." Destinations are not only defined by their density or intensity of activity but also by the types of uses and active spaces, how streets are arranged, how transit is accommodated, and their collective roles within the region.

Belly Fat is one of the hardest things that you come across in your life. The present day lifestyle and the lack of routine make it even harder to lose the belly fat. However, there are few very easy ways to reduce the belly fat and the result could be unbelievable.
Consume Protein
Consume protein most of the time. There are two benefits of consuming protein. The first is that it makes you full very quickly, so you do not overeat. The second is that it generates heat in the body that helps your body to burn the stored fat. Protein diet may very soon help you to reduce the belly fat.
Reduce the Calories
Calories can increase the belly fat and that has been the prime reason for the abnormal lower belly fat for many. The lesser calories you will consume, fitter you will become. Cheese, Butter, Date Palm are few of the food items that contain very high calories. These are good if you are gaining weight, but if you want to reduce your lower belly fat, keep some distance away.
Burn Calories
Last but not the least; you need to burn calories as much as you can. It is not always possible to hit the gym, but even normal exercises like running, walking, cycling can make a huge difference. A small change in lifestyle can do a lot of good for you.
These are very simple three steps that can help you to lose lower belly fat in very quick time.

PhD Program annual review meeting : Debate Game !!!
Each year, we invite PhD students to give a feedback on the PhD program. The objective is to continuously improve the program and adapt it to your needs. In particular, we want to discuss with you what you feel is working, but also, what should be improved and/or ideas that you would like to see implemented. We understand it can be difficult to share opinions on these issues, especially if they might be seen as negative, so we decided to use a playful approach, in line with this year PhD day theme. We propose this event in the form of a "debate game". It will not be necessary to prepare anything; rather we will supply an online collaborative document, in which anyone can anonymously add (until September 14th) a suggestion or a theme that he or she would like to be discussed. Before the "debate game", suggestions will be drawn randomly and teams (including committee members) will be assigned the task of identifying either the pros or the cons. Examples might include:
· The seminar topics or courses are relevant.
· The frequency of events is too low.
· PhD Program courses delivered 2 days in a row are better than 4 ½ days in 2 weeks or 2hrs every evening.
· Courses in a class are better than videoconference courses.
· My advisor doesn't accept the workload required by the PhD program.
· More social events would be appreciated.
· Spreading of communication is not efficient.
Pizza and drinks will be provided to fuel our imaginations…
Join us on September 19th, 6 PM, at INT. Save the date!

The online video market continued to gain momentum in 2010, with an average of 179 million Americans watching video each month, according to comScore's 2010 U.S. Digital Year in Review. That's a bigger audience than the record 111 million viewers who watched Super Bowl XLV on Fox.
But watching videos online is different than watching TV. After the Super Bowl, Fox followed with "Glee," which drew 26.8 million viewers. After watching the Super Bowl commercials, millions of viewers shared some of their favorites via Facebook, Twitter, and blogs.
According to the Viral Video Chart list of the Most Contagious branded content, "Volkswagen Commercial: The Force" has been shared 801,432 times — 763,969 on Facebook, 36,728 on Twitter, and 735 in blogs.
It's worth noting that Volkswagen's commercial has been viewed more than 26.8 million times — which is about the size of the audience for "Glee" after the Super Bowl.
So, how do you encourage people to share your YouTube videos on Facebook, Twitter, and blogs?
First, you want to tell a story that is worth retelling. Or, as Guy Kawasaki says in his new book, "Enchantment: The Art of Changing Hearts, Minds, and Actions," "video content that can enchant people must provide intrinsic value to your viewers." This can come in four forms:
- Inspiration. YouTube has brought to light thousands of inspiring stories of courage and bravery. Example: "Free Hugs Campaign – Official Page (music by Sick Puppies.net)."
- Entertainment. Some videos are plain-and-simple guffawingly funny. Example: "United Breaks Guitars."
- Enlightenment. These are documentaries similar to what you'd see on PBS or the Discovery Channel. Example: "Genocide: Worse Than War | Full-length Documentary | PBS."
- Education. Educational videos show how to do things and use products. Example: "How to Fold a T-shirt in 2 seconds."
In addition to telling a story that is worth retelling, you also want to take advantage of YouTube features that enable viewers to share videos that enchant them with their friends.
As soon as you upload a new video, your YouTube subscribers are automatically notified when they return to the site and log in. You should also notify your fans via Twitter, Facebook, and other sharing options.
YouTube introduced AutoShare in 2009, which allows YouTubers to automatically share their Activity Feed to Facebook, Twitter and Google Reader. By opting into AutoShare, when you perform certain actions specified in your Activity Feed on YouTube, AutoShare sends an update to your friends on Facebook, a tweet on Twitter, and notification in Google Reader about those actions.
As "YouTube AutoShare Options (Adoptafeature)" illustrates, it takes about 1 minute and 35 seconds to get started and activate AutoShare for Twitter.
Once you've set up AutoShare, your YouTube Activity Feed will be shared with the sites with which you're connected for AutoShare. Any information you already share on YouTube from your Activity Feed will now also be AutoShared with Facebook, Twitter, and/or Google Reader.
However, Uploads will be posted to the selected sites after the videos have finished processing. This might take a little time.
And you'll need to have a linked Google-YouTube account in order to user AutoShare. If you have a Gmail Account, you already have a Google Account. If you don't have a Gmail Accont, then conduct a search for the phrase, linking my YouTube account to a Google Account.
You can also e-mail influential blog editors and traditional media outlets that are relevant to the topic or that have featured them in the past.
According to Technorati's 2010 edition of State of the Blogosphere, 90 percent of bloggers are using some form of multimedia on their blogs. Although photos are the most popular form of multimedia, half of the bloggers surveyed said they use video on their blog.
This means a public relations specialist, social media expert, community manager, or you should reach out to bloggers who might want to embed your videos in their blogs.
Jonathan Allen, director of Search Engine Watch, combined content worth sharing with social media outreach in his video, "50 SEOs 1 Question – SES London." It tackled the provocative topic, "What should we do with the Black Hats?" And more than half a dozen of the SEOs featured in the video embedded it in their blogs.

There are lots of things that are really hard about having a child that's 'high maintenance,' which is not to be confused with the huge amount of blessings that also come from having a special needs angel in our home 24/7. When one of those huge blessings come along, I love to share! So.... Let me introduce you to AAC Camp! (Alternative and Augmentative Communication Camp)
Approximately 40 campers came together from the Northwest United States and Canada that all use something called a communication device, often referred to as a 'talker.' It's similar to an iPad that's used to talk. Some kids have multiple disabilities and some kids are only challenged by speech. The campers' spoken language each vary from completely non-verbal to saying their own words and sentences that may be harder for the untrained ear to understand, or expanding on the thoughts they can't physically put into words.
Bryer is one of the latter. We understand nearly everything she says, and most people that are around her for an hour or two catch on to her language and vocabulary, but in the meantime, it's been helpful to have a communication device help bridge that gap, especially with her starting school this fall. One problem - I didn't understand the potential, how to help her use it, how to program it, or how to use it in every day activities. This camp covered all of these bases and so much more!
Let me introduce you to Bryer's very favorite part of camp - her camp counselor, Jackie. Most of the camp counselors are grad students studying speech therapy. It is no coincidence that Bryer and Jackie were matched up together. As nervous as I was about leaving her, these two were fast friends and away they went, leaving me to try to figure out what to do with my day in between parent trainings. Jackie will be an amazing speech therapist someday soon! She is so intuitive, patient, willing to learn right along with the kids, and so dedicated to details! She was hooked right away to Bryer's sense of humor and personality.
The mornings were filled with stations. On the last day we got to come for Family Day so Bryer could show us what she learned. It was a big hit playing games while Bryer used her 'talker' to give directions, ask questions, and interact.
The stations were Games (and therapy dogs), Drama, Music and Movement, and Computers.
Another favorite part was the afternoon activities... Square dancers performed for the kids and included them in dancing, they went swimming, and the BSU football players even came to play one day! It was touching to see these tough guys in uniform cheer the kids on as they made it through the obstacle course, or push their wheelchairs down to the touchdown cones.
She does have a bossy side and on family day she loved telling her brother to put on the 'brown hat,' with her talker.
*You'll also notice that Bryer is wearing Jackie's name tag in this picture. She's a goof and likes to change names often. It was the best compliment she could give Jackie to want to be her for the day!
This is how Bryer was after picking her up from swimming one afternoon - and really every day at the end of camp. Her brain was full and she was exhausted!
I can't say that I didn't feel the same! While she was doing her thing, I was soaking in as much as I could too. They had parent trainings for an hour or so each morning and again each afternoon. Everything from stretching your child's vocabulary and sentence length to learning to use the talker in everyday situations. They had a class on programming, and another with questions for the doctor. They welcomed guest speakers, and it was so refreshing to network with other parents that are in the same boat!
These kids are amazing! A few of the campers use 'Eye Gaze' to access their talkers. The machine tracks their eyes while they look at the screen to tell you what they want to say! Another boy in a wheelchair doesn't have control of his upper body and uses his toes to point to what he wants to say on his talker. At one point he held a craft he made in between his toes on one foot and then used his other set of toes to tell about it! I was in awe watching these kids!
When we first got Bryer's talker over a year ago, we used auditory scanning. Her talker would go through choices (quietly) and she would hit a button when it got to the one she wanted and her talker would say it out loud. Her eye sight and motor functions have improved so much that now she points with her finger to what she wants to say, which is much quicker and more efficient. We are learning to navigate between pages for different activities and situations, but she's gotten very comfortable with her 'Quick Fires' which are phrases she uses on a regular basis:
I have to go to the bathroom.
I am hungry. Can you get me something to eat?
Go away please. (Which is very useful when her smothering siblings are around!)
Come here please.
Can you give me some choices please?
I want to play!
I am tired.
The very, very best part of camp has been watching her own vocal vocabulary grow! That's the ultimate goal - for the kids to use their own voice if/when they are capable. Prior to camp, this would have been a typical conversation:
Bryer (with her own voice): More hungry Mom!
Me: Ok. I'll warm up some chicken enchiladas for you.
Here's how a conversation went this past week after camp.
Bryer (with talker, trying to copy as it said it): I am hungry. Can you get me something to eat?
Me: Yes. What do you want me to fix you?
Bryer (with talker): Can you give me some choices please?
Me: Ok. Do you want me to warm up lasagna or chicken enchiladas?
Bryer (with her own voice): MOM! Chicken enchiladas yucky!
*I have been giving her chicken enchiladas for years and she has never once told me that she didn't like them!
This week she also got to 'call' the Twister game for her siblings. In her game section of her talker we created buttons for Right Hand, Left Hand, Right Foot, and Left Foot. We'll practice navigating back to the colors page, but for now it was her turn to call out the body part and I would call out the color.
She has WORDS - real, live words - that she can voice her opinion, needs, and share what is going on in that smart brain of hers! That is the power and miracle of communication, however it comes about!

Fireplace Doors | Glass Fireplace Door Sets
Our fireplace experts sell and install glass fireplace doors and fireplace doors sets to complete the look of your wood or gas fireplace. We serve Jackson CA, Lockeford, San Andreas, Clements, Martell, Sutter Creek, Volcano, and all of Amador and Calaveras Counties.
Did you know that problematic air flow from your fireplace is cut by 99% with the proper installation of glass fireplace doors? Fireplace doors provide a tight seal around the opening of your fireplace that not only keeps warm (or cool) air from your living space from escaping out the chimney, but also keeps embers and sparks from escaping the firebox and potentially starting a fire. Many homeowners choose to install glass doors to help increase the efficiency of their fireplace and reduce wasted energy costs from air being lost up the chimney.
If your fireplace tends to be a bit smoky or drafty, adding fireplace glass doors is a great way to prevent a sudden draft from pushing smoke into your living space. Beyond just keeping your fireplace more efficient, glass fireplace doors add safety features that can help keep kids and pets out of the open flames of a burning fire and keep ash and embers inside of the firebox.
Fireplace doors come in a seemingly endless array of styles, finishes, sizes, and designs which means you are sure to find the perfect set of fireplace doors that will fit your fireplace and match your current home decor. Choose from ceramic glass or tempered glass to help prevent heat loss and increase the heat output of your fireplace while preventing air from escaping out of the chimney. Glass fireplace doors are a cost-effective way to increase the efficiency of your open burning fireplace while adding a bit of style all at once.
In our opinion, glass doors are a must-have accessory for your hearth and are more than just a decorative addition to your open burning fireplace. Come see some of our fireplace glass door sets at our Jackson CA hearth store and find out how these accessories combine beauty with functionality, making them well worth their minimal investment cost. Our installation crew can provide hassle-free installation services so you can begin enjoying your updated fireplace area quickly. Our technicians will also visit your home to take custom measurements of your fireplace opening to ensure that you are choosing a glass door set that is perfectly suited to your current hearth.

I am slowly adding content here on the blog from my previous site(s). Yes, with an "S" because I get to switch web hosting sites. Hopefully this will be the last one as I would love this to be my last site so I could move forward with my brand.
Anyway, I have fallen in love with neutral colours a couple of years ago and I tried to put together my go-to outfits of my personal style. I got hooked with the idea of having a capsule wardrobe in my closet. A capsule wardrobe is defined as a collection of a person's few clothing essentials that you can mix and match and doesn't go out of style. Although it is mostly the only items in your closet, my capsule wardrobe consists of the items that I like to mix and match with the current items in my closet. So no, these aren't the only clothes I own.
As you can see on my previous posts, I like neutral colours. My capsule items mainly consist of 2 pairs of jeans, 5 tops, 2 dresses, an overlay and a shawl. As I was building it, I tried to include the items that I love to repeat over and over again but still remains a classic. So if you're building your own capsule wardrobe, I suggest to pick out the pieces that are classic and also items that are easy to wear and style.
I made this a year ago and this is still my colour palette up to today but I am slowly trying to incorporate little hints of hues every now and then.

Picking my own pocketAlthough I have a number of stories to post and have a few articles started, I continue to look for coins for various reasons. Sure, some of the coins I find are not part of a collection I am working on. But there are a few that when they appear in my pocket change get stored in my desktop bank.
After buying lunch, the changed included four cents. When she handed the change, I looked into my hand and noticed three very shiny, red Lincoln cents and one very brown cent. A quick glance of the red cents showed three 2017-P Lincoln cents. These are the new, one-year issue Lincoln cents with the P mintmark honoring the 225th anniversary of the U.S. Mint.
For the brown cent, I had to stop a moment and turn it into the light to see it closer. The first thing I noticed is the wheat ears reverse. Nowadays, to find a wheat back cent almost as rare as finding a pre-1965 coin in change. A quick flip and an adjustment of the bifocals reveals it is from 1942, a coin still rattling around in circulation for 75 years.While marveling about finding a wheat back cent, I move some of the other change around and noticed the distinct Drummer Boy reverse of at 1976 Washington quarter. Although there have been quite a few new designs over the last 20 years with all of the different programs, I still reach back to the 1976 Drummer Boy reverse as my favorite modern circulating coin design.
The wheatie and the Drummer Boy quarter have been dropped in my special bank. As for the 2017-P cents, they will go back into circulation for someone else to enjoy.

N.W.A. - Dopeman lyrics
Dopeman by N.W.A.
Verse One: (Ice Cube)
It was once said by a man who couldn't quit;
�Dopeman, please, can I have another hit?�
The dopeman said: "Cluck, I don't give a sh*t;
If your girl kneels down, and sucks my dick!�
It all happened and the guy tried to choke her;
Nigga living in cash, ain't nothing but a smoker.
That's the way it goes, that's the name of the game;
Young brother getting over by slangin' caine.
Gold around his neck 14 k, has it;
b**ches sucking on his dick, 24-7.
Plus he's makin' money keepin' the base heads waiting;
Rollin 6-4 with the fresh-ass daytons.
Livin' in Compton, California, CA
His Uzi up your ass if he don't get paid.
Nigga begging for credit, he's knockin' out teeth;
Clockin' much dollars on the 1st and 15th kay shizze is a real f**kin g
Big lot of money, nothing less than a twenty;
Yo, you want a five-oh, the dopeman got plenty.
To be a dopeman, boy, you must qualify;
Don't get high, off your own supply!
From a kid to a G, it's all about money;
10-piece, 4-10, base pipe comes free.
If people out there ain't hip to the fact;
If you see somebody gettin' money 4 crack,
He's the
Dopeman! Dopeman!
�Hey man, gimme a hit!�
Dopeman! Dopeman!
�Hey, yo, f**k that sh*t!�
Dopeman! Dopeman!
�We just can't quit!�
Dopeman! Dopeman!
�Well suck this b**ch!�
(Dr. Dre)
Wait a minute, wait a minute! Who the f**k are you talking to?
Do you know who the f**k I am? Man, I can't believe this sh*t.
This b**ch is tryin' to gank me!
I'll slap you up side your head with 9 inches of limp dick!
Verse Two: (Ice Cube)
You need a nigga with money, so u get a dopeman;
Juice that fool for as much as u can.
She likes his car, and he gets with her;
Got a black-eye coz the dopeman hit her.
Let that slide, and you pay it no mind;
Find that he's slapping you, all the time!
But that's ok, coz he's so rich,
And you ain't nothin' but a dopeman's b**ch.
Do what he say and you keep your mouth shut;
Poppin' that trash might get you f**ked up!
You'll sit and cry if the dopeman strikes you;
He don't give a f**k, he got 2 just like you
There's a another girl in the dopeman's life;
Not quite a b**ch, but far from a wife.
She's called 'The Strawberry' and everybody know;
�Strawberry! Strawberry! Is the neighbourhood hoe.�
Do anything for a hit or two;
Give the b**ch a rock and she'll f**k your whole damn crew
It might be your wife and it might make you sick;
Come home and see her mouth on the dopeman's dick.
Strawberry, just look you'll see her;
But don't f**k around, she'll give you gonnorhea.
If people out there ain't hip to the fact;
Strawberry is a girl selling pussy for crack to the,
Dopeman! Dopeman!
�Hey man, gimme a hit!�
Dopeman! Dopeman!
�Hey, yo, f**k that sh*t!�
Dopeman! Dopeman!
In your face;
Yo Dre, kick in tha bass!
Verse Three: (Ice Cube)
If ya smoke 'caine, you're a stupid motherf**ker;
Known around the hood as the schoolyard clucka.
Doin' that crack with all the money ya got;
On ya hands & knees, searching for a piece of rock.
Jonzing for a hit, now ya lookin' for more.
Doug stole a Alpine outta Eazy's 6-4.
Ya need ya ass whooped coz it's outta this Earth;
Cant get a 10-piece, need a dollar fifty's worth.
Knucklehead nigga, you turned into a crook;
But swear up and down, boy, that you ain't hooked.
You beat ya friend up and you whooped his ass long;
Coz he hit the pipe till the rock was all gone!
You robbin' and stealin', bugging and illin';
While the dopeman's dealing.
What is killin' your pain? Cocaine? This sh*t's insane;
Yo, E, she's a berry, lets run a train!
Man, I wouldn't touch that b**ch!
(Ice Cube)
Me neither, hoe go home and wash out ya beaver;
And nigga's are out there, messing up people's health;
Yo, what the f**k you gotta say for yourself?
Verse Four: (Eazy-E)
Well, Im the dopeman, yeah boy wear corduroy;
Money up to here, but unemployed.
You keep smoking that rock and my pocket's getting bigger;
(Dr. Dre)
Yo, got that 5-0, double-up nigga!
Yeah, high rollin', big money, Im foldin;
b**ch on my tip, for the dick, Im holdin.
Strong strawberry, jockin' me so early;
Hoe, ya wanna hit? Ya gotta get your knees dirty.
Well that's my life, that's how it's cut;
"Hey Dopeman!� b**ch shut the f**k up!
Gotta make a run, it's a big money deal;
Gankers got the fake, but you can get the real,
From the…
Dopeman! Dopeman!
Yeah, that's me!
Dopeman! Dopeman!
Yo, can I get a G?
Dopeman! Dopeman!
Clock as much as he can.
f**k this sh*t, who am I?
Outro: (Eazy-E as the Mexican guy)
Yo, Mr. Dopeman, you think your slick;
Ya sold crack to my sister, and now she's sick.
But if she happens to die, because of your drug;
Im puttin' in your culo, a .38 slug!

This is one of the last sermons I gave in a church that describes the way God the Father depicts Himself in Ps. 103. Hope this helps some of you get a better picture of God as He really is.

Once upon a time in my own little world, I looked forward to snowfalls. Before life changed, snow was beautiful and comforting. Yes, I was one of those people who would race to the grocery store to stock up on food for my family. My shopping cart would contain half snacks, including the ingredients for a delicious dessert as well as hot cocoa with marshmallows, and I couldn't wait to get back home anxiously searching for the first snowflake to fall.
My mother, sisters and I would exchange phone calls to be reassured that everyone was home safely and then call periodically to compare our snow totals as our children ran in and out of the house leaving a pile of boots and wet clothing inside the front door. In the middle of these conversations, I would be shouting warnings to my rosy-cheeked children beckoning them to come inside before they developed frostbite or to stop dragging snow all over our house. Life was good before life changed.
In later years, after my kids were young adults, with only Amy still living in the nest, snowfalls meant chinese food, decadent desserts and Amy outside helping her father to shovel out our property and to dig out our cars. Continuing to check in with my older kids as well as phone calls with my sisters and Mom to assess snow totals and reassurance that everyone was off of the roads, etc. Everyone? There is always someone missing in the word everyone which just tugs so hard on my heart. Life changes.
Now snowfalls are lonely. The glistening picturesque scenes hold no beauty. I cooked during the storm yesterday, even made cookies, but nothing tastes the same. Now I worry when my husband is out there shoveling or my kids are not home in their individual homes safe and dry. I know only too well life changes in an instant.
Yesterday before heading to the store, we stopped at the cemetery. Yeah, life tragically changes.
I am not okay. Despite reading blogs of hope which attest to new adventure and new beginnings when their life changed, that is not where I am on my journey. Yes, one person in my little corner of my world held a vital key to who I am and my ability to rebound when life changes. When my life changed so did my entire world.
Life is not finished with me. Possibility remains for more devastation and even joys. However, never ever will my little corner of the world be okay without Amy. She was just too significant to me for that to happen. No hopeful books, blogs, preachings or words will change the value of my daughter's life in my life.
Always remembering Amy.

Ubuntu users and privacy advocates have won a big victory as Canonical's Michael Hall announced yesterday that future versions of Unity will give users the option to opt-in to searches using online sources. Back in September 2012, I had reached out to both the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and Free Software Foundation (FSF) and blogged about the new feature landing in Ubuntu 12.10 that would breach user privacy and leak desktop queries.
The EFF and FSF both responded by outlining why this new feature was a breach of user privacy and called on Canonical to fix the feature. For two releases, Canonical maintained that the online search feature was something users liked (apparently having done user studies) and that it respected user privacy.
Yesterday's announcement clearly indicates that the feature was not something that users valued and that the feature did indeed raise privacy concerns. Later in 2013, Canonical went as far as to abuse Trademark Law by sending an employee of the Electronic Frontier Foundation a frivolous legal notice which had no validity.
For what its worth, this change in the Unity Desktop will address the issues that users, developers, and advocates have raised over the last two years and puts Ubuntu back in parity with other Linux Distros in terms of privacy.
I applaud the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Free Software Foundation, and Privacy International for championing the privacy and choice of Ubuntu Users.

When compared side by side to Meena Kumari's original pictures in her roles, the similarity is even more striking. Although both are styles and outfits for each picture come very close to being almost identical, I do think that each actress holds her own style, yet each complement the other perfectly.
A very beautiful photoshoot, with some equally gorgeous outfits. Diya Mirza captures the old style magic well, with some very enviable outfits and accessories.


text: This may seem petty, but by simply making the turn signal amber, it could improve visibility a lot more. Also making the turn signal on the same circuit as the taillight is what I call "Bad Over-Engineering". "Bad Over-Engineering" is when someone over-engineers something but end up not making it any better than it would if they did it simple. Besides, every other Model S not sold in North America has ambers. Go figure. Furthermore, in a survey, most people prefer to have amber indicators in the rear according to a TMC post: Amber rear turn signals? So did Tesla put amber rear turn signals on the Model X? It would make sense because of how much they advertise safety on the X. I already confirmed where the brakelight, taillight, and reverse light is, but amber turn signals can be possible.

After you have the car stripped, the metal work should start next. Metal work means fixing the small damages that he body of the car might have sustained. This is important because paint cannot hide the dents and scratched in a car. Small dents can be worked out by using a hammer and dolly or a semi pointed probe worked across the metal on the back side. I worked out several small dents this way and did not have to use any filler at all in those places. Larger dents have to be banged out using the hammer and dolly the best as can be done. Unless you are an artisan then you will have to use some filler on large dents. Be sure to not have any high places in the metal or you will have a bump in the final paint finish that cannot be sanded down. That way, you can prepare your car properly before you go on painting your car
Often, high areas can be "shrunk" by using a pick hammer with a dolly in the back side. What you must do is to exchange the large dent or bump for a whole bunch of small bumps that are easier to fill and cover. Lightly just tap over that rise area working from the edges to the center and the bump will slowly disappears. This may take some practice to get good at. If you drill holes to pull out a dent, then you must weld up the holes when done to prevent moisture from getting to the back side of the filler material through the holes.
Fixing Rusts In The Car
There is only one way to fix rust. Cut it out, remove it and weld in new metal. Completely remove all rusty metal from the car, don't cover any up or the rust will grow. I use a Plasma cutter to cut the metal but quality tin-snips or a nibbler will work just fine. If your car has some surface rust than this is OK as the paint will completely seal it and prevent it from growing further. Cut a piece if 18 gauge metal to cover your rusted area that is about 1/4 inch larger than the hole. This metal should be plain steel and must not have any coating (e.g. galvanized coat). The base metal should also be very clean for at least an inch away from the weld. Use wire brush or sander to prep the metal.
As an option, you can add a depression to the body metal for the patch to set in. A tool is made to do this but. This tool only makes 3/4 inch long ridges at one time and can cause some warping of the metal around the patch area. The new metal must be completely welded in using a good MIG (metal inert glass) welder. Low current 110 welders just don't do the job with the exception of the Lincoln SP100 or SP125. I use a 200 Amp Century. Turn the welder up to a voltage that would normally melt holes in the metal if welded continuously. Then tack the metal in place using short bursts of weld (1 second) about every 4 inches around the patch.
NEVER try to push the metal in place while welding. The metal should fit the contour of the body naturally with only a very slight pressure needed to hold the pieces together. If you press hard while welding then you add stresses to the patch and will cause warping in the welding process. Once the piece is in place you can start welding it solid. This is very important to do slowly. Weld in about 1/4 to 1/2 inch strips around the patch with one hand on the surrounding metal about 3 inches away. Each weld spot should spaced apart around the patch area. You keep doing this until you fill all the gap in. If the surrounding metal gets too hot to hold your hand on then quit till you can lay your hand over the area that is being welded.
This process may take 20 minutes for a 6-by-6 patch area. If you rush the welding then the metal gets too hot and warps. Sheet metal under about 12 gauge is made by a cold rolling process. This process puts stress on the metal released in the welding process which ca cause warping. Keeping the head down reduces this possibility. The welding should be continuous and not just spotted. Moisture can come in from the back side and cause rust to grow under the filler material and cause the filler to lift off. Grind the weld lightly when done to reduce any high spots in the weld. Before applying filler, rough up the metal with a 24 grit disk on a 7 inch grinder so the filler has something to stick to. You may also want to use the pick hammer and slightly dent the metal in around the weld area so that less filler is needed to cover up the patch.
Patching Up Small Holes
For surface rust in areas like the floor board where dents have gotten deep or there are some Swiss cheese-type holes less than the size of a pencil, an alternate to welding can be done. Use a wire brush to remove all loose scale and sand away paint from the surrounding area for about 6 inches. Clean up all dust with a vacuum. Apply POR15 metal prep to the area to etch the new metal that is not rusted. POR15 will not stick to clean metal unless chemically etched, but it sticks very well to rust. Apply a heavy coat of POR15 paint over the entire area. Lay a layer of fiberglass cloth over the rusted area and coat with another heavy coat of POR15. After the paint is dry to the touch, add another coat and a layer of slightly smaller fiberglass cloth. After it has dried to the touch then add 2 more coats of POR15 alone waiting till the paint has dried to the touch between each coat. POR15 is an amazing paint. It does not ever fully get hard. It dries faster when it is damp out. It will not lift with the formation of rust like normal paint will, and is so strong that you will NEVER be able to peel that fiberglass cloth off again.
The patch will be nearly as strong as the original metal. The stuff is not really paint, but they call it paint for lack of a better word. You can also use it for areas of heavy rust on the body that has not gone completely through. Simply paint a couple of coats over rusted metal before filling and painting. If you are going to top coat the POR15 then you need to spray a light coat of primer on it before it completely dries or sand it so the top coats will stick. You don't need the fiberglass cloth on an area that does not have holes through. I also recommend using it under fenders where rust is on the back side and over the back side of the welded-in patches.
POR15 is not the same as rust converters (e.g. "Extend"). It does not convert the rust, but instead covers it up which helps in preventing moisture from getting to the rust which stops any further rust spread. Don't forget to wear plastic gloves. POR15 sticks to skin like crazy glue. If it dries on your hands you will wear it for about 2 weeks. (I tried Acetone, Xylene, Toluene, Methel-ethel keytone, Tricholrethene, gasoline, Alcohol, Lacquer thinner, Carb cleaner, Brake cleaner with Hexane, sand paper, and soap to get it off. Nothing worked.)

Luke has to give a report on Vincent van Gogh and Haley needs 40 cupcakes for a fundraiser. Both projects are due tomorrow. Time to divide and conquer. Claire will help Haley if she can rely on Phil to work with Luke. No problem. Claire wants her loving husband to keep Luke focused, but Phil doesn't want to micromanage the situation. He'll give Luke some leeway to do his own thing. Sounds like a plan. A bad plan, according to Claire.
In order to get her mom to do all the work, Haley feigns incompetence in the kitchen. Her deception works to perfection as Claire takes over the entire cupcake-making operation. Alex joins the bake session with laptop in hand. She's been doing research on ADHD. The symptoms seem to fit more than one member of the family.
Phil hands his son a pencil to begin his creative journey in the life of van Gogh. But Luke is easily distracted. He wonders how they get the lead inside the pencil. It's a good question. Apparently, the pencil is originally created in two pieces and they glue them together around the lead. How do we know this? Well, Phil looked it up on the Internet. Yes, it seems like he has trouble focusing, too.
When Claire and Phil catch Luke in his room dismembering a Mr. Potato Head doll, they realize their boy can't do anything unless they stay on him. Actually, that's not quite accurate. Luke was simply gathering plastic ears for his awesome poster board tribute to van Gogh. You do know he lost a lobe back in 1888, don't you?
So, Luke is all set for school. Haley... not so much. Claire is hip to her cupcake con game and tosses everything she baked into the trash. Now that she showed her daughter what to do, Haley can bake the next batch by herself. Wonder if she'll add sprinkles.
Cameron is taking Gloria to dinner. He's desperately trying to make amends for an innocent comment he made a few weeks ago. He was criticizing a woman who went to Columbia University but it sounded like he was taking racial jabs at our favorite Colombian lady. Cam made reservations at a fancy restaurant, but Gloria would much rather go to a little Latin eatery in her old neighborhood.
The place Gloria picked isn't exactly a four-star restaurant. Okay, it's a total dive. But Gloria loves one of their super spicy dishes. Against the advice of the waiter, Cam orders a helping of the same fiery entree. That was a mistake. Cam's mouth is on fire after just a few bites. He screams, "I feel like I ate the sun!" Tears are streaming down his face. We're crying, too. Of course, ours tears come from laughing so hard.
Cameron feels horrible. He wanted to have this special night with Gloria so they'd end up as best buddies. As it turns out, Gloria thought they were great friends already. And it's good to have a friend with you when you're stranded in a tough neighborhood because someone stole the wheels off your car. Don't worry. Cam's insured.
Mitchell has plans to watch a meteor shower with his dad. It's the one father-son bonding thing they actually enjoy doing together. That explains why Mitchell is a tad disappointed to learn that Jay asked Manny to join them. He's taken aback even more as Manny assaults him with a barrage of verbal insults. It's because Jay had told his stepson that brothers often express love to each other through mockery and zingers. Kapow!
The evening under the stars goes from bad to worse when Mitchell gets sprayed by a skunk. He's forced to ditch his clothes and don a tight-fitting dress that was in the car. This leads to more mocking from both Manny and Jay.
In an effort to save the night, Jay tells Mitchell the reason he asked Manny to come stargazing with them. Manny had a rough week. A few classmates he thought were his friends think he's weird. Jay thought Mitchell would know just what to say to make Manny feel better. He does. They have a little heart-to-heart that ends just as the meteor shower begins. Guess things always work out for the best whenever the stars align.

The Link - a device that makes any speaker wireless
The Link is a small, portable and rechargeable device that converts any wired speaker into a wireless Bluetooth® speaker system.
The Link - a device that makes any speaker wireless
The Link is a small, portable and rechargeable device that converts any wired speaker into a wireless Bluetooth® speaker system.
Our mission is to bring the luxury of wireless audio to everyone without the burden of its price.
The Link is a small, portable and rechargeable device that converts any wired speaker into a wireless Bluetooth® speaker system. Simply plug your audio system's auxiliary cable into the Link, connect your device to the Link wirelessly via Bluetooth, and voila...No more wires.
Product Demo
Technical Specs*
- Battery life: upto 25 hours
- Charge time: 5 hours
- Recyclability: Plastic parts are recyclable. Battery is e-recyclable
- Range: ~50 feet
- Material: PC/ABS
*all specs are accurate estimates - final specs are TBD
Why buy one now and not wait until the Link is on the market?
The Link's MSRP is $49.95 plus shipping, while on Kickstarter we are offering our early pledgers the Link for just $30 including free shipping, and the later pledgers the unit for $35 including free shipping.
How is the Link better than its competition?
Almost all other Bluetooth adapters and receivers on the market are big and bulky, and they all have to be connected to a power source (USB or an outlet). The Link, however, is small enough to fit on your keychain and it has a rechargeable lithium ion battery that runs for upto 25 hours on a single charge. The Link's versatility, portability, and sleek design differentiate it from other adapters on the market.
We were tired of wires constraining people's ability to listen to music - whether you had to plug your iPod into a speaker system and keep it there, or whether you couldn't move around because your headphones were plugged into your computer.
There are so many instances where you can get rid of wires with the Link: in your car's audio system, the speakers on your desk at home, your home theatre system, your big speakers, your portable speakers - the list goes on.
For some reason we don't understand, wireless speakers are 150-400% more expensive than their wired counterparts. So with our mission in mind, our team set out to create a product that would eliminate all wires in your music listening experience. It was after all this frustration that we knew we had to make a product that would eliminate all wires. It would have to make any speaker system wireless—sound systems, computers, and even car stereo systems.
We knew it would have to be small, portable, sleek, rechargeable, and cost-effective. We knew it would have to be easy to use, and we knew it would have to carry great sound quality.
After many months of designing, prototyping, testing, changing, improving, producing and finalizing - we finally have our market-ready prototype and we're ready to start cutting some wires.
Current Prototype and Renderings
Risks and challenges
We currently have a functional prototype, and everything is already lined up with an outsourced production manufacturer known for high quality audio production capabilities.
The only obstacle between us and production is our campaign goal of $50,000 to finance the fixed costs associated with a new production line. We will then need to receive production prototypes, test them, and sample different Bluetooth modules in order to ensure that every backer gets the highest quality wireless audio experience.
$50,000 is a conservative campaign goal, and it leaves excess budget to really refine the product with enough money leftover to manufacture the necessary quantity plus a surplus. We have no doubt that we will get this done - it will be a lot of work and a lot of time but we will fulfill every order before the holiday season.
We'd like to thank everyone in advance for taking a risk by pledging, and believing in us and the product.
Together, we can really revolutionize the way we listen to music.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Video: Record-breaking climate trends in 2016
Two key climate change indicators have broken numerous records through the first half of 2016, according to NASA analyses of ground-based observations and satellite data. Each of the first six months of 2016 set a record as the warmest respective month globally in the modern temperature record, which dates to 1880. Meanwhile, five of the first six months set records for the smallest monthly Arctic sea ice extent since consistent satellite records began in 1979. NASA researchers are in the field this summer, collecting data to better understand our changing climate.
While these two key climate indicators have broken records of late, NASA scientists said it is more significant that global temperature and Arctic sea ice are continuing their decades-long trends of change. Both trends are ultimately driven by rising atmospheric concentrations of heat-trapping carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases as a result of fossil fuel burning and deforestation. These rising concentrations directly cause warming of the atmosphere and ocean, which in turn induce sea ice melt.
NASA tracks temperature and sea ice as part of its effort to understand the Earth as a system and to understand how Earth is changing. In addition to maintaining a fleet of 20 Earth-observing satellite missions, NASA also sends researchers around the globe to investigate different facets of the planet at closer range. Right now, NASA researchers are working across the Arctic to better understand both the processes driving increased sea ice melt and the impacts of rising temperatures on Arctic ecosystems.

Difficult Dialogues Initiative Promotes Diversity at MU, Around Country
MU Receives $30,000 grant to continue the national movement
August 30th, 2010
COLUMBIA, Mo. – As U.S. demographics continue to shift rapidly, the University of Missouri has made a commitment to valuing and promoting diverse points of view within the MU community and across the country. MU was one of 27 institutional recipients of $100,000 grants from the Ford Foundation Difficult Dialogues Initiative (DDI) in 2005, and one of only a small number of those original institutions to receive an additional $100,000 grant in 2008.
DDI activities focus on teaching and reinforcing knowledge, skills, and awareness of diversity issues in higher education related to race, gender, sexual orientation, religion and other forms of diversity. The program encourages difficult dialogues on important, controversial topics. Eryca Neville, a past DDI Faculty Fellow and newly appointed coordinator of the MU DDI campus program, believes the initiative is essential to democratic citizenship in an increasingly diverse society.
MU has used the Ford Foundation funding to promote constructive dialogue regarding academic freedom and cultural, religious, and intellectual pluralism at MU as well as at other institutions across the country. The university has now been awarded an additional $30,000 by one of the foundation's partner organizations, the International Institute for Education (IIE).
In 2009, the MU Difficult Dialogues Program hosted a summer institute, designed by program leaders at the University of Missouri in collaboration with the principal investigators of two other DDI institutional awardees at the University of Texas at Austin and the University of Alaska-Anchorage. Together, the schools provided participants with the foundational information, awareness and skills to develop DDI programs on their own campuses.
"This new $30,000 award from the IIE allows us to continue our efforts in expanding the reach of the DDI to six institutions that participated in our 2009 summer institute," said Roger L. Worthington, assistant deputy chancellor and chief diversity officer at MU. "Our new goal is to help other campuses around the country develop their own difficult dialogues program, and to establish a national movement for the advancement of difficult dialogues pedagogy in higher education."
"Facilitating difficult dialogues is an important tool to include various points of view across the wide range of perspectives in the wide variety of functions needed to sustain a university's function as well as a productive society as a whole," Neville said.
The University of Missouri has now received $230,000 in grants from the Ford Foundation and its partner organizations to advance the DDI. This includes the recent $30,000 grant that will be dispersed among several participating institutions including Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Oklahoma State, Baylor, the University of Kansas, and Iowa State.
DDI is a part of the Chancellor's Diversity Initiative at the University of Missouri. Through the Chancellor's Diversity Initiative, MU constantly strives to become a more inclusive, creative and innovative learning and research environment with the ultimate goal to facilitate the competent functioning of students, faculty, staff and administrators in a diverse and competitive global society.

(anger management)
by Phil Perich for the Before the Bat podcast
I know, I know. Everyone's talking about Jerome aka the Joker on Gotham season 2. But did you know there's another Batman villain from the comic books in the new Maniax group? Although he hasn't been around as long as the Joker and other classic villains, Aaron Helzinger has faced the Dark Knight several times in the comics as the mentally deranged Amygdala. Although he can be calm and peacefully at times if properly medicated, Amygdala gained his name after doctors removed the amygdala portion of his brain in an attempt to cure his homicidal rages. The amygdala refers to the bundle of nerve cells in the brain that control emotional associations of many kinds. Amygdala first appeared in Batman: Shadow of the Bat #3 (August 1992).
Amygdala, an inmate at Arkham Asylum, is forced to attack Batman by the asylum's deranged director, Jeremiah Arkham. After a short battle, Batman defeats the huge mental patient.
During 1993's Knightfall storyline, the villain Bane orchestrates the escape of all the asylum's inmates, forcing Batman to hunt them all down. Bane's plan was to wear down an already physically and mentally exhausted Batman. Batman encountered Amygdala early in the story when he was working as the Ventriloquist's bodyguard in part 2 of the story (Detective Comics #659, Early May 1993).
Although the Ventriloquist escapes during the battle, Batman is able to subdue the much more dangerous Amygdala.
Amygdala is treated, medicated and released years later. He would go on to live a normal life for awhile living in Bludhaven in the same apartment building as Dick Grayson (Nightwing). Amygdala had a job as a warden at Lockhaven prison. But Amygdala's normal life came to an end when the villainous Blockbuster blew up the apartment building killing all inside except for Amygdala and Dick Grayson. Amygdala was severely traumatized by the death of his friends.
Amygdala would be seen later as one of the villains that joined Alexander Luthor's Secret Society of Supervillains in the Infinite Crisis miniseries and also in the 2008 Gotham Underground miniseries drinking in Penguin's Iceberg Lounge.
Amygdala is currently portrayed on Gotham season 2 by actor William "Stink" Fisher.
After the beating he gave Jim Gordon, how are the Gotham cops going to stop this man? Any thoughts? Share here:

Friday, 14 November 2008 04:43 PM
CHICAGO -- U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton declined to say on Friday whether she was in the running to be secretary of state, a day after a meeting with President-elect Barack Obama in Chicago.
Clinton, wife of former President Bill Clinton, this week emerged as a candidate for the chief U.S. diplomatic post or another job in the incoming Obama administration.
In introductory remarks at a speech in Albany, New York, Clinton did not confirm or deny that she had a secret meeting with Obama on Thursday. A Democratic official said the meeting took place, but had no details.
"I'm not going to speculate or address anything about the president-elect's incoming administration. And I am going to respect his process and any inquiries should be directed to his transition team," Clinton said.
The Obama's transition office in his hometown Chicago refused to comment.
Nominating Clinton for the job would be a bold move by Obama as he seeks to build a high-powered team in Washington. He defeated the New York senator in a sometimes bitter duel for the Democratic presidential nomination, then miffed her supporters by not choosing her as his vice presidential running mate.
At the same time, Obama scheduled a meeting in Chicago on Monday with Republican Sen. John McCain, their first face-to-face talks since Obama defeated McCain in the presidential election on November 4.
Obama spokeswoman Stephanie Cutter said Obama and McCain would discuss ways to bring about a "more effective and efficient federal government." McCain had campaigned on reforming government by cutting out programs and reducing spending.
Washington was abuzz with the news that Clinton might be on Obama's short list. Many experts thought she would be a strong choice for secretary of state -- she would be the third woman to hold the job after Madeleine Albright and Condoleezza Rice.
"You need someone who can be taken seriously internationally, who has that kind of experience and policy ability, but also has the gravitas to make people sit down at the table," Democratic strategist Liz Chadderdon said.
But the question was whether she would take the job if offered. An alternative could be to remain in the Senate and use her clout to have a say in Obama's proposals and keep an independent platform for another possible run for president.
Obama has already turned to many former members of Bill Clinton's administration for help in his transition to power, including his chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, and co-chairman of his transition team, John Podesta.
Considering Clinton for secretary of state would mean Obama was expanding his search beyond other candidates mentioned for the job, such as Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, a Democrat who lost the 2004 presidential election to George W. Bush, and Nebraska Sen. Chuck Hagel, a Republican who backed Obama over McCain this year.
Obama has been closeted all week in meetings in his transition office in Chicago as he prepares to take over the presidency on January 20.
New Jersey Democratic Gov. Jon Corzine said on MSNBC that Clinton would be great as secretary of state.
"She probably knows every major foreign leader. There's already a relationship where she can sit and talk directly about the problems that exist either on a bilateral or multilateral basis," he said.
Corzine would not address speculation that he is a candidate to be Obama's Treasury secretary, amid reports that another candidate for the position, Lawrence Summers, was fading due to opposition from women's groups upset at him during his tenure as president of Harvard University.
