Real Salt Lake
RSL Head Coach Jason Kreis
Thoughts on the game:
"I don't know; I really felt like that was one of the most complicated games I've coached against. Some of the tactical positions that they were making were stuff that we just don't see in our league too often. In our league, we don't see teams come and try to be that aggressive as they were here. We get into the second half and they are playing three forwards, and three defenders, and four midfielders and completely switchable shapes. I just think of it as a tough battle for us tonight, it was tough as a coach to try to solve that as well."
Thoughts on it being a refreshing game or not tonight:
"Yeah, I think if you didn't enjoy watching that game, you probably think about not watching soccer anymore because these were two teams that just went at it. It was end-to-end for a while tonight, probably not my ideal situation but for a general soccer fan, I hope that they would have enjoyed it."
Thoughts on Javier Morales:
"Awesome for him to come back after so many difficult injuries over the past couple of years and get his first start at home tonight to get the goal that wins the game for us is huge. He also played quite a few nice passes, probably another night we score three or four and he has those assists."
Thoughts on handball call in the first half:
"That's four weeks in a row. Four weeks in a row I feel we've had penalty decisions go against us. All of them questionable; I don't like it and if I had refereed that I wouldn't have made that call, but I don't referee, I coach and hopefully I'll stay that way."
Thoughts on Nick Rimando's penalty save:
"Huge. Awesome. Incredible moment from him… and that was a huge, huge moment for us because we had gained so much momentum in that first half. Lucky not to score and we would have really been in for a hard battle had it gone into the back of the net."
Thoughts on Olmes Garcia and Alvaro Saborio:
"They both played well. In my opinion both were unfortunate not to score; Garcia hit the crossbar twice and Sabo had diving, lunging efforts from both defenders and keeper to make saves on his attempts. So we like what we see out of that combination and just our attacking options all night were pretty nice."
Thoughts on Luis Gil:
"He has been struggling a little bit with his ankle. He picked up a pretty severe ankle injury the last time he was with the U-20's or actually I think it was the time before, so he has been dealing with this injury for a while. I think he must have cranked it a little bit there early in the first half, but he gave it his all. We pushed it probably a little bit longer than maybe we should have, but I felt he has been doing well, he's been in a good moment, and he had a really nice game tonight I think."
Thoughts on Chris Wingert getting his first start soon:
"Close, real close. It's not easy. As we hopefully get players healthy, it's going be very, very difficult to make decisions both in the starting lineup and in the eighteen. It's going to be a little bit cutthroat."
Thoughts on defensive form improving now compared to the beginning of the season:
"I do, I do, and I still think it's coming together. I really felt that there were still too many clear-cut chances against us tonight in the first half. I think there was one or two that were really clear-cut against us; I think that you are ready for that when you're winning a game and its late in the match, but if it's happening in the first half then I think we need to look at it and say how can we tighten the ship up a little bit."
Thoughts on Robbie Findley:
"He was a coach's decision, because he is fully fit and he is ready to go. But we've tried to be fair and make decisions and say 'okay, the forwards that are in form those are the ones that will start' and we literally made that decision after training yesterday. Friday I watched them both and said okay they both have looked very sharp this week, but Garcia scored last week so he gets the nod."
Thoughts on Yordany Alvarez:
"Super, super good. He was also hobbled with a little bit of an injury situation and was very concerned, but he got along and he pushed through it and had another really strong performance. I thought he was great last week coming off the bench against Vancouver as well."
Real Salt Lake MF Javier Morales
On his overall reaction to the game:
"I think they play different than other teams in MLS, but I think our score and a couple of other chances that we had at the beginning of the game was good. I think we played hard, and I think we deserved more than 1-0, but that's how it is in this game."
On his fitness and his injury recovery:
"I felt good, but I'm not there yet. In the last ten minutes of the game, I got a little tired. I know I have to keep working, but I'm happy that I helped the team win tonight."
On his game-winning goal:
"I think it was a great play by Saborio, I was just in the box. He's a star, and he showed how great he is by putting the ball there, and I just made the shot."
On playing the whole 90 minutes:
"I think I played an okay game. That wasn't my best game, because I know that I have to keep working just to get better – every week, every game."
Real Salt Lake GK Nick Rimando
On the feel of the game:
"It was good to get the monkey off of my back and help my teammates in a must win. We wanted 3 points bad, and to be home after a long stretch feels great to get those 3 points and contribute the way I did."
On the penalty kick save:
"I kept on second guessing myself on PK's leading up to this one today. I kind of stuck to my guns and really committed to myself to go to my left. He kind of opened up early and I was there for the save."
The importance of starting the home stand with a victory:
"We don't want to chase three points too much, especially at home. We have to keep on going, though. This is only one game out of a three game stretch. The goal is nine points, but I don't think it's out of our reach if we continue to play like this."
Real Salt Lake MF Ned Grabavoy
On his overall reaction to the game:
"There's some good stuff, but there's obviously some stuff to work on. It's a bit sloppy for my liking, being up 1-0, but at the same time, we still created a ton of chances to put the game away."
On the "new" Chivas USA:
"That team works really hard, that's probably one of the hardest-working teams we've ever played against. It's 100 percent the difference between last year and this year for them. They have good soccer players, and they're all in the same place in how they try to play soccer – play to the forwards' feet, then get it back, guys are running off the ball – but those guys are scrappy. They stepped up and crushed us. They made it difficult for us to play our normal game.
On the Mejia red card situation:
"I think he just came late. He's knows I've got great touch on it, so he just sold all out at that point, took his forearm up to my neck section. That's just whatever, it happens in games, and it is what it is."
Real Salt Lake DF Tony Beltran
On adjusting to Chivas USA's three forwards:
"It was difficult. We did our homework, so we knew what to expect. The way they play is much more different than any other team in the MLS. It's somewhat of a gamble. I think our shape was good and limited their chances. We knew we were going to expose them on the counter attack."
Chivas USA
Chivas USA Assistant Coach Isidrio Sanchez
On the penalty kick taken in the first half:
"In the first half we did some good things with the ball while we had it and that was one of them. The keeper just made a great save and that's what there is to that."
On the exchange of words between Javier Morales and Coach Sanchez:
"I really don't know what was being said between them two. I wasn't there to hear what was going on."
Chivas USA GK Dan Kennedy
Overall thoughts on the match:
"I feel like if we continue to put in performances in like that we'll look at ourselves in August and we'll be in a good spot. I think it was a good performance tonight. Obviously it hurts to miss a penalty kick, that's a massive momentum changer for them. And we still created some opportunities, obviously this is a hard place to play in this league. I think we came close to shutting them out, it really came down to one or two mistakes."
On the goal scored by Morales:
"It was pretty hectic because they just had that through ball that slipped through and was chipped onto the crossbar. I know we possessed out of it and then we must have turned-over at some point and they came back down and Saborio broke down the right-hand side and we weren't marking in the box. I mean, that's step number one. The minute the ball's wide you pick up the marks in the box. It's unacceptable and we all know that. At the end, I think we're disappointed because with that being said, there was still something in this game for us. I think it should have been 1-1, probably would have been a fair result."
On attitude in the locker room:
"The attitude's great. The new coaching staff has done a tremendous job in really changing things. That's what needed to happen at the end of last season. You have to remember, at the end of July last year, we were in third place in the Western Conference. We had a lot to play for last year too. So it's early days you know, I'm happy for the grit that we've had. We've had a decent start, it's what it is now, it's a decent start. It's important that we take care of our performances at home too. So now we're going back home to face San Jose and that's all the more important because we didn't get anything here."
On marking in the box and players losing focus:
"Well, we play with three in the back, so it's a lot of responsibility on the guys in the back. When someone breaks down on the side we have to slide a defender out, so then we are at two. That makes it all the more important for a midfielder to come in and pick up the maybe two, maybe three. That's what happened. We didn't get picked up tight enough, so guys like Javier are going to punish you. That's what they do, that's what they make their living off of."
Chivas USA FW Tristan Bowen
Overall thoughts on game:
"In my opinion I thought we played decent. We had a few opportunities to score a goal and we didn't put it away. As in any game in MLS, there are opportunities. There's chances where a play breaks down and there's one or two mistakes, a misplaced pass or someone doesn't cover their guy and a turnover can lead into a goal and that's what happened today."
On the mindset playing RSL at home:
"It doesn't change from game to game. At the end of the day it's "go out there and fight and do what we know how to do." We did that for the most part, it was just a few mistakes that occurred and that's where we had the breakdown. With a good team like Salt Lake we're going to pay the price for that."
On the impact Chelis has had on the team:
"He's got the guys believing again and the guys are fighting. I think those are the two major things that point out in my mind. But we still have a long way to go and I don't think you can properly give a concrete answer on how he's affected the team at this point. You know, he's definitely a personality in the locker room and the guys are responding to him. So we just need to get a little bit cleaner on the field and the results will come."
On maintaining possession better in the first half than the second:
"I think we just relaxed a little bit more. We realize that if we can maintain possession for a few seconds and get it wide we're going to have opportunities in front of goal and that's what we were doing in the first half. The second half we had a few chances but obviously we were down a goal we have to push up a little bit more and take more risks. So I think that's what happened in the second half. With that being said, we still had a few decent, decent looks at goal, still half chances but obviously we have to take some risks being down 1-0 away from home. "

Jason Russell, the filmmaker behind the KONY 2012 video, has been diagnosed with reactive psychosis following an incident where he was detained for publicly masturbating near Sea World, according to a statement from his wife, Danica Russell:
"Thank you to those who continue to support both us, and Invisible Children. The organization is an extension of our family, and we hope that Jason's vision and work toward peace in the region remains the focus, and comes as soon as possible, as they continue to work in his absence.
We would, again, like to make it clear that Jason's incident was in no way the result of drugs or alcohol in his body. The preliminary diagnosis he received is called brief reactive psychosis, an acute state brought on by extreme exhaustion, stress and dehydration. Though new to us, the doctors say this is a common experience given the great mental, emotional and physical shock his body has gone through in these last two weeks. Even for us, it's hard to understand the sudden transition from relative anonymity to worldwide attention - both raves and ridicules, in a matter of days.
Jason will get better. He has a long way to go, but we are confident that he will make a full recovery. He is, and will remain, under hospital care for a number of weeks; and after that, the recovery process could take months before he is fully able to step back into his role with Invisible Children. During that time, we will focus not on a speedy recovery, but a thorough one.
On Jason's behalf, keep your attention turned to the end of Africa's longest running conflict, and setting a precedent for all future injustice.
With love and overflow of gratitude for your prayers, we thank you."
As a reminder: Southland's Ben McKenzie is in no way involved with this Sea World masturbation incident.

Versatility Of German Shepherd Dogs
Well, we talked a lot about the origin and history of German Shepherd Dogs. Here's something very interesting about the breed. Why are German Shepherd Dogs the most versatile breed?
If you are really looking for a wonderful, smart , intelligent, protective, decent, courageous, self assertive, sturdy, powerful, royal, loyal and highly trainable working canine companion, German Shepherd Dogs are the right choice for you. The nature of a well bred Alsatian (German Shepherd Dog) is notably different from any other breed of dogs in the world. And it's because of this very different nature (not forgetting the gorgeous look) of the German Shepherd Dogs (GSDs) that the breed rightfully deserves a soft corner in the hearts of zillions of dog lovers across the world.
GSD has earned massive popularity all around the world after the World War II as a perfect working dog breed. To be very candid, no other breed of dog in the world has successfully mastered such a huge range of skills like GSD. This breed is large and powerful enough to tackle a couple of men at a time, protective and courageous enough to protect his master and property and intelligent and responsible enough to to safely control a whole herd of sheep.
True that he cannot outrun a Greyhound, but again it's beyond all controversy that he can show a stand out Turn Of Pace. Moreover a well bred Alsatian can also maintain a steady canter for longer than most of the other breeds of dogs. Besides his awesome intelligence, a well bred Alsatian is an ideal working dog, which is why this breed has really marked a name of itself in varied fields across the globe. Whether as a shepherd dog or rescue dog or a police dog or a guide dog for blind or a guard dog or an attack dog or a war dog or a messenger dog or a sniffer dog or a movie actor, Alsatian dog breed has proved to be the best among all the other dogs in the world. Originally started his career as a shepherd dog breed, Alsatians have underwent a wide range of diversifications insofar the nature of their work is concerned. An incredible number of 48,000 Alsatians took an active role in the Germen regiment during the World War II. This breed has also earned a lot of fame as sentry dog and security dog during the war time and the post war period. The most interesting fact about the breed of German Shepherd Dog is that, this breed was the first canine breed to come in the movie screen. Rin Tin Tin (Rinty) the famous GSD was the world's first canine celebrity who appeared in over 40 hit movies. Within only two years since he started his career as an actor he had been earning 400 pounds per week during 1920s. He had his own car, chauffeur and own bank account.
To begin with Rinty developed a really impressive war record. Owned and trained by Corporal Lee Duncan, Rinty started off his career taking active part in World War I, carrying out important dispatches, sentry and other significant duties for Red Cross. He first appeared as an actor in a movie called "Where The North Begins", directed by Chester Franklin. It was in this film that Rinty set Warner Brothers back on its feet along with a financial set back. The popularity of Rin-Tin-Tin almost became the nightmare of the great stars like Charlie Chaplin and the Gish Sisters. In the year 1925 Rinty was voted as the most popular star of USA.
The saddest part of Rinty's life was that he was insanely busy all through his life and could not enjoy a retirement although he had a remarkable life. Stay Tuned, More about Rin-Tin-Tin to come!
Pictures: Rin Tin Tin, nick name -- Rinty, (often written as Rin-Tin-Tin) Sep. 10th 1918 to Aug 10th 1932.

Soil matters. To the plants you wish to grow in your garden, nothing is as important as what's in or missing from the soil on your property. After all, the soil composition makes or breaks your plants' chances of thriving. While there are many details to learn about your soil's makeup, the pH level is the best place to start, because some plants prefer soil that is acid (for example, azaleas) or alkaline (carnations) or neutral (grass). To plan and maintain a healthy garden, therefore, you've got to know where you stand pH-wise. Fortunately for backyard gardeners, you don't need a chemistry degree to test soil pH. In fact, it's simple.
Here's perhaps the easiest of all ways to test soil pH: Head to the nearest home center or nursery, and pick up a testing kit. (Alternatively, buy one from an online retailer like Amazon). When used correctly, such kits are fairly reliable. Not every kit involves the same order of operations, but generally the process begins with digging a small hole, two to four inches deep.
Move any twigs or stones to the side, then fill the hole with distilled water-that is, water that is neither acidic nor alkaline. (If you don't have any on hand, you can buy a bottle from almost any grocery store or pharmacy.) As the hole you created in the soil turns into a muddy pool, insert the test probe. Now wait.
After about a minute, you should get a reading. If the pH registers as being lower than 7, that means your soil is acidic. Higher than 7? Your soil is alkaline. (Exactly 7 means your soil is neutral.) Bear in mind that most plants do well in soil with a pH between 6.5 and 7. If yours falls within that range, consider yourself lucky. No small number of gardeners must amend their soil to make it hospitable.
Before calling it a day, take the time to test the soil pH in several different parts of your garden. Even in a small yard, pH variations-sometimes considerable ones-are common. A plant that wouldn't adjust well to one corner of your property might live very happily in another location.
An alternative method of testing soil pH involves-believe or not-the red cabbage that's been lurking at the rear of your refrigerator. What you do is chop the cabbage into small pieces before boiling it in a pot of distilled water (again, refrain from using tap water; the H20 used must have a neutral pH).
After about 10 minutes, the boiling water should turn violet. Remove the pot from the stove, strain out the cabbage, and pour a portion of the water into two separate containers. To one container, add a small amount of vinegar. Into the other container, sprinkle a couple of pinches of baking soda. The result, assuming no missteps, should be one container of pink (acidic) liquid, another of blue-green (alkaline).
Now pour the remaining violet water into yet another empty container, only this time add in a spoonful of soil. If the water turns pink, that means your soil is acidic; if blue-green, your soil is alkaline. The stronger the color change, the more acidic or alkaline the sample. If the liquid does not change color at all, then your soil is neutral. Science!

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce a unique Book that will
teach VB and Accounting Business Logic quickly and easily.
Please see below for details:
Learn Visual Basic and ADO by developing your own Accounting Program
*Master the secrets of developing an Accounting Package
This book reveals all the business logic, functions, and procedures used
to develop an Accounting Program modelled after the UK double entry accounting
system widely accepted in UK, India, Australia and many other countries.
Unlike other books that attempt to teach VB using scientific non-business
examples, this book teaches very valuable business concepts and programming
at the same time.
The Book uses a real life accounting example instead of theoretical concepts.
Using concise language with no off-topic discussions, every chapter in the
book provides excellent value. Students familiar with databases and accounting
business logic will have the tools to make developing business applications
a breeze.
Covering the basics of database development and advanced topics like reporting
and advanced topics like reporting and retrieval of data using SQL, this
book provides a thorough and comprehensive walk-through forcing them to learn
key programming and business logic very quickly.
This knowledge helps programmers to manage the database part of various technologies
like E-Business sites, B2B sites and Exchanges, ERP and POS projects.
The book consists of 380 pages, and has an ISBN number. The first edition
was published in January 2001. Full source code is included in the Book,
however the source code is not included on CD, since it dissuades students
from actually typing and trying out the examples.
Companies such as Infosys Technologies, Wipro Software, Satyam Software (Indias
biggest software companies), as well as the prestigious Indian Institute
of Management, Bangalore, have purchased the book to provide business logic
and programming training for their students.
About the Author:
Bharati Krishna is the Technology Director of Unisoft, Bangalore, widely
known as the Indian Silicon Valley. She has involved in Product Design,
Development and Quality Control. She has focussed on the Financial Accounting
domain for the last six years, and is well versed with technology behind
the leading accounting software programs. She has been a long time VB developer
since the earliest version of VB. She is a frequent speaker at industry
forums on database design, coding interfaces for complex data acceptance,
reporting and object oriented programming.
Very well conceived book based on solid accounting principles and general
accounting guidelines, John Spiller, CPA, Austin, Texas, Accounting Insider.
"Much needed book for teaching programmers the importance of business logic.
Long overdue!" - Dr. KR. Srivathsan, Director, IITM-K, former Head of Electrical

Hong Kong Polytechnic University Deploys OpenText EIM Solutions to Better Manage University Records and Information
Feb 15, 2013, 09:15 ET
OpenText Enterprise Content Management enables seamless integration of content with collaboration tools and social media platforms
WATERLOO, ON, Feb. 15, 2013 /CNW/ - OpenTextTM (NASDAQ: OTEX,TSX: OTC), a global market leader in Enterprise Information Management (EIM), today announced that The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) will implement OpenText Enterprise Content Management (ECM). OpenText's ECM solution, one of five foundational pillars of OpenText EIM, enables organizations to manage information throughout its lifecycle, improve business productivity, and control the costs and risk associated with the growing volume and velocity of content being produced and published in the enterprise. With OpenText's ECM solution, Hong Kong Polytechnic intends to gain better control over its content, ensure greater data integrity, and address its growing data needs.
Hong Kong Polytechnic University is the largest government-funded tertiary institution in Hong Kong with more than 30,000 students, and nearly 3,500 teaching and non-teaching staff. It offers over 230 programs on campus. The growing student population, number of employees and courses offered had increased at PolyU over the years and led to a huge growth in data generated and used. To better manage and leverage this information, PolyU's individual units were implementing independent and isolated solutions. The University's reliance on disparate document management systems to store and manage its information was getting harder to manage.
"With a growing number of document management system libraries from different vendors used across campus, there was a need to aggregate the islands of information that could not be shared or used," said Gerrit W Bahlman, Director of Information Technology at PolyU. "The OpenText implementation will reduce IT support time and costs and greatly improve collaboration between the teaching and administrative staff, enhancing their pursuit of best practice sharing."
"Like any enterprise, universities in Asia today face the challenge of a competitive landscape and being able to manage, control and secure information is key to their success," said Foo Mao Gen, vice president, OpenText, Asia. "OpenText enables organizations such as PolyU to create business value and achieve strategic success by effectively managing information throughout its entire lifecycle."
From information capture, to classification, management, storage, distribution, archiving, and disposition, OpenText ECM manages the flow of information across the organization. Fast and seamless access from multiple environments—web, desktop, mobile, within business processes and applications—improves user productivity and organizational efficiency.
By enabling the control of document access and by maintaining an audit trail which tracks who viewed and modified the content and when, the University will be better prepared to manage content integrity. Content duplication will also be reduced as duplicated or shadow systems are removed.
"Innovation is important to our University, and we aim to deliver state-of-the-art technology to support our teaching and administrative staff, and enhance our students' learning experience," added Bahlman. "The solutions we are implementing will enable us to better manage and control the access of our documents, while enabling knowledge and information sharing across the University."
OpenText ECM, an Enterprise Information Management (EIM) offering, helps businesses manage information through its lifecycle, improve business productivity, mitigate risk, and control costs of growing volumes of content. EIM helps organizations manage and exploit their enterprise information to drive innovation, create competitive advantage and make better decisions about their business without compromising their information governance and security.

What is a Phishing?
Phishing (pronounced "fishing") is a type of online identity theft. It is an attempt to acquire sensitive information. Here at the university they are usually attempting to get your Ball State username and password. There are many variations to a phishing email, but the most common technique is asking you to provide sensitive information (username/password) by either replying to the message or clicking on a link and entering the information on a Web page. Review an example of a phishing email.
What should I do when I receive an email from the Helpdesk, Webmail, IT, Internet Support Team, Security and E-mail asking me to validate my username and password so I don't lose access to my Webmail or any other technology resources?
Delete the email. Regardless of the SUBJECT or the message in your email no one at the university is going to request you to validate your username and password. No one is going to ask you to enter your credentials so you don't lose your email account or content. There is NO security incident taking place that requires you to validate your account.
How do I know if a message is a phishing scam?
Phishing messages often:
a. Instruct you to supply your account information, including your username/password, by email or by clicking on a link in the message and then entering the information via the Web. This is never a legitimate request.
b. Have a "From:" line that sounds (and sometimes is) legitimate, but the message itself is vague.
c. Contains a threat for not supplying the information, such as having your account deleted.
d. Having spelling and grammatical errors. Legitimate messages aren't always perfect, but with careful reading many scam messages become obvious.
e. Use a generic salutation rather than using your personal name.
What to do if you think you may have responded to a phishing email.
Chances are if you have responded to phishing email you have compromised your Ball State account and will no longer be able to use your Ball State e-mail account. Contact the Technology HelpDesk. They are located in the Bracken Library (BL), room 101. You can reach them by phone at 765-285-1517 or by visiting their web site at www.bsu.edu/helpdesk.
What risks are involved?
If you reply to a phishing scam with your username and password you have provided the scammer access to all your Ball State accounts. In addition your email will be used to send thousands of spam email to others on and off campus.
What should I do to prevent my Ball State username/password from being compromised?
a. Be suspicious of messages requesting personal or account information.
b. Be suspicious of messages threatening to suspend, terminate or close your email account if you don't respond with the information requested.
c. Do NOT respond to phishing scams at all.
d. Do NOT click on links in a message.
e. Do NOT click on links in a message.

International Observing Campaign: Photometry and Spectroscopy of P Cygni
pdf [1]
Ernst Pollmann
Thilo Bauer
Received February 3, 2012; revised March 19, 2012; accepted March 19, 2012
In this combined campaign on the Luminous Blue Variable star P Cygni we are trying for the first time by way of contemporaneous measurements of photometric V brightness and Ha equivalent width (EW) to realize a longterm monitoring of the intrinsic Ha-line flux. The photometric observers of AAVSO and BAV (Germany) and a spectroscopic observer group (Japan, France, Spain, Germany) started observing for this campaign in November 2008 at the request of Bernd Hanisch and one of us (EP) in order to continue former investigations whose results were based on multi-daily averaging of V and EW. Additional data from literature enable us to represent the quantitative behavior of the Ha-line flux for the timespan August 2005 to December 2011, which behavior reflects variabilities in mass-loss rate, stellar wind density, and ionization structure.

Virgin Australia is trying to compete with Qantas for all the fancy-pants business class travelers, a move that has prompted some changes to the standard Australian flight attendant mannerisms. No longer will flight attendants, for example, be allowed to greet passengers with that charming Australianism we non-Australians find so jaunty — "mate." The flight attendant re-education program, according to The Daily Telegraph, is called Elevate, and, beyond clever wordplay, it will teach a whole lifetime's worth of air service etiquette. Cabin crew will learn, for example, food and wine appreciation, grooming and body language, such as not crossing arms because it appears defensive and seems to tell passengers, in so many words, "OMFG have you never even seen a plane before or what?"
One flight attendant told said that the etiquette training is really just a way for the airline to tone down all the apparent sexiness that rolls down the aisle ahead of the beverage cart. She said, "They want us to get away from that 'sex' look that's been attached to the company." It's funny she should mention the "sex look" because, as it just so very well coincidentally shooting-star happens, Virgin Atlantic will now be offering an audio version of someone with a scratchy voice whispering Fifty Shades of Grey for no extra charge to passengers. The New York Times thinks this is so ironic that it added a parenthetical "ahem" next to "Virgin," because, you know, giggle, giggle — sex! We'll see how funny it all is when the first person to get caught masturbating to the audio 50 Shades makes the funny papers.

An important and invaluable voice in western Fairfax County land use since moving here 11 years ago, Jim Hart is the 2001 recipient of the James D. McDonnell Award for Outstanding Achievement in Community Service.
"It's certainly appropriate and certainly well-deserved," said Supervisor Michael R. Frey (R-Sully), presenting the award at Monday night's quarterly meeting of the West Fairfax County Citizens Association (WFCCA). "Jim Hart is the hardest-working man out here."
Hart, of Virginia Run, has been on the WFCCA's Land-Use Committee since 1994 and served as its chairman from 1998-2000. He was also WFCCA president from 1996-98 and has been a member of the county's Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) since 2000. He also takes an active interest in regional transportation issues that could affect this area.
And he's not afraid to speak his mind when he believes a particular business or something about a residential development could be detrimental to the citizens. McDonnell always set high standards for Centreville's development, and so does Hart.
"Centreville is the place it is today because of the community involvement," said Frey, stressing how the WFCCA makes sure developers "pony up" improvements and follow county guidelines. "The WFCCA has had a tremendous impact on the community."
County Board of Supervisors Chairman Katherine K. "Kate" Hanley noted that she receives e-mails from Hart on a number of things on a regular basis. "I'm always glad to get them," she said. "It's nice to know citizens out here are paying attention to the issues."
As for Hart, for once, he was actually surprised. "I pride myself in knowing everything that's going on out here, but I didn't know about this," he said.
A long-time community activist, McDonnell died in January 1998. He served 14 years on the Land-Use Committee and was chairman when he died of cancer at age 50.
"Jim was an inspiration," said Hart. "I'm not a natural volunteer, and it's largely through [his] encouragement that I got involved in the WFCCA. This means a great deal to me. I'm honored, and I hope I'll continue to live up to the great example that Jim McDonnell set for us."
Hart represented his former community, Heritage Forest, when he moved to Centreville in 1991. And when he first attended land-use meetings, he said, "I was content to sit in the audience and ask questions, now and then." But both McDonnell and Sully District Planning Commissioner Ron Koch (a former McDonnell Award recipient) urged him to become more active.
Right up to the end, said Hart, McDonnell was a role model for him in his unselfish qualities and his commitment to public service. "He had serious health problems — bone cancer, but he kept coming to meetings and keeping us on top of land-use cases," said Hart. "And he set a really good example of trying to bring diverse viewpoints together to have a consensus in local land-use issues, without partisanship."
Besides the WFCCA, Hart's also served as an at-large member and chairman of the countywide trails committee and was on the county's Board of Equalization, dealing with real-estate assessment appeals. An attorney in partnership with the son of Commonwealth's Attorney Robert F. Horan Jr. in the Fairfax City firm of Hart & Horan, Hart does construction and real-estate litigation.
He's former chairman of the Construction Law and Public Contracts section of the Virginia State Bar and former chairman of three Fairfax Bar Association committees. And in June 2000, he received the President's Award from the Fairfax Bar and was named an honorary Lord Fairfax.
"I've always believed members of the bar should try and contribute their time to community activities — and not necessarily law-related," said Hart. So what keeps him doing it? "I'm very bad at saying 'no,'" he replied.
He's also learned a lot by serving in all these organizations. "Fairfax County is a wonderful place to live, and I'm fortunate to have gotten to know such nice people in all these activities," he said. "We have such talented people with good ideas — civic-minded individuals who want to make the community better for everybody."
Hart says citizen groups are important because the community is strengthened by broad participation in civic activities, whether they be schools, homeowners associations, churches or other organizations. "The Centreville area is pretty strong in that regard," he said. "A lot of people take pride in their community and want to give back something to it."

Houston-area Congressman Al Green is praising House passage of his legislation to create a top post at the Department of Housing and Urban Development to help homeless veterans.
The Houston Democrat said the legislation that cleared the House on a vote of 414 to 5 would create a special assistant for veterans' affairs at the Cabinet-level agency to coordinate services to homeless veterans.
The post also would serve as a liaison with the Department of Veterans Affairs, the U.S. Inter-agency Council on Homelessness, state and local officials, and nonprofit service organizations.
Green said his measure also will require an annual report card from HUD on "the housing needs of homeless veterans and the steps HUD has taken" to address their requirements.
"Homelessness among veterans is unacceptable and reflects a failure to act to protect the men and women who risk their lives abroad to protect our freedoms at home," Green said.
"The Homes for Heroes Act will help coordinate the government's efforts to assess the housing needs of veterans, which will provide necessary information to further reduce homelessness among these veterans," Green said.
The lawmaker noted that on any given night, over 600,000 people are homeless in the United States – many of them veterans. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs reports that approximately 134,000 veterans experience homelessness each year.
In Texas an estimated 4,891 veterans are homeless – including more than 2,000 veterans in Houston alone.
Green's proposal now moves to the Senate for consideration where it faces an uncertain fate.

A LITTLE bit of Switzerland came to Cutteslowe as a new scheme for illustrating the heights of proposed buildings was trialled in the area.
Oxford City Council has been experimenting with a Swiss planning system that involves applicants showing the outlines of a proposed development by using thin poles topped with horizontal markers.
The city has now become the first place in the UK to trial the scheme after city councillor James Fry suggested it after the Castle Mill controversy, which saw student flats built on Roger Dudman Way.
He said: "If you have ever tried to look at the database of new planning applications, it is often very difficult to find something which is drafted by an architect which is easily intelligible to someone who isn't an architect.
"With this scheme, people have an absolutely clear idea of exactly where the development is going to take place and how high will be.
"Had something like this been available at the time they did the student flats in Roger Dudman Way, people would have had no excuse for not knowing how big it was going to be."
Oxford University's student flats near Port Meadow have sparked controversy after blocking off the views of the city's dreaming spires.
An independent review into the issue commissioned by the city council recommended that the council find a better way of representing how buildings will look once they are complete.
As part of the scheme used in Switzerland – called Bauprofile – all buildings of up to three storeys should be fully profiled using poles with horizontal markers.
Whether the roof is pitched or flat should also be indicated using slats.
City councillor Colin Cook, executive board member for city development, said: "We will certainly see what these poles look like and see what the responses have been, but I think there are better ways of achieving the same result.
"There are technologically more superior ways of getting a better impression of what a development will look like."
On Friday, when the first poles went up, it was used on a proposed city council development at Elsfield Hall in Harefields, where the authority wants to build 17 flats and houses.
The poles were telescopic light weight ones which extend to 10 metres00 and were surface mounted, so were only on site for one day.

Because tyramine is found in many foods and beverages, people taking MAOI medications must follow a strict diet.
In general, foods that are fermented, aged, or spoiled have large amounts of tyramine. You should not eat foods containing more than 6 mg of tyramine per serving. These foods (which should always be avoided) include:
- Any red meat, poultry, or fish that may be spoiled or has not been stored properly
- Mortadella, pastrami, pepperoni, salami, summer sausage, and any other similar sausages or meats
- All aged cheese -- the only cheeses that are okay are cottage cheese, cream cheese, mozzarella (part-skim), ricotta, and processed cheese (such as American), although these cheese should not be eaten if they have been stored (in the refrigerator) for more than two or three weeks
- Liver (especially improperly stored liver)
- Yogurt
- Sauerkraut
- All protein supplements, including liquid or powdered protein products
- Fermented soy products, including soy sauce, teriyaki, miso soup, tamari, and any other similar products
- All tap beer
- Broad bean or fava pods
- Banana peel
- Yeast extracts or supplements (regular yeast used in baking is okay)
- Chianti wine and vermouth.
Some foods can be eaten sparingly (no more than two servings total per day) if approved by your healthcare provider. These foods include:
- Wine (one serving is 4 ounces), other than chianti wine or vermouth
- Distilled spirits or liqueurs (one serving is 1.5 ounces)
- Bottled or canned beer, including non-alcoholic beer (one serving is 12 ounces)
- Over-ripened avocados.
Large amounts of caffeine or chocolate should be avoided while taking Parnate. Although caffeine does not contain tyramine, it can cause problems with dangerously high blood pressure. Ask your healthcare provider about limiting your intake of caffeine-containing products, such as soft drinks, coffee, and tea.

BlackBerry tries for patents on concertina-like keyboards in smartphones
When we think of hidden keyboards on our phones, our thoughts usually turn to thick sliders -- notwithstanding the occasional wacky twister. BlackBerry has filed for a pair of patents that would be even subtler by hiding the keys inside of a phone's main body. Looking somewhat like concertinas in practice, the concepts would pivot keys into place as the phone owner pulls out a retractable section to start typing. BlackBerry suggests it could work for both conventional smartphones (what you see above) as well as a not-entirely-practical design with keys on opposite sides of a display, much like a single-screen LG Doubleplay. We're not expecting BlackBerry to ship related products anytime soon when the Q10 represents its immediate future in hardware keyboards, but it's tough to rule out the ideas altogether when they could slim keyboarded phones without losing that coveted stealthiness. They might stand a better chance of reaching the market than some of BlackBerry's more outlandish experiments.

As soon as we enter is the 2 mighty monolithic Gaja-Simha (a human crushed by an elephant (gaja) which is in turn crushed by Simha (lion) on either side of the staircase! There are several philosophical and moral stories that float around about the symbolism, as explained by many guides, but none have proof. The extremely ridiculous things I've read about Konark include that presence of a magnet in the Siva Lingam that made a crystal above float… to the sunrays falling on the lingam 365 days a year (yeah, more often it's a digitally altered image of Angkor Vat that accompanies these claims!)!! Big no, again none of these have any proof!
Columbia.edu / bl.uk, Public Domain via Wikimedia Commons.
Soon after you enter is the Natamandira, whose platform and pillars are still standing, but without a ceiling! A walk around the platform is just breath taking – there are soldiers, dancers, musicians, erotic poses, hunting scenes in slots surrounded by minute filigree work – all in stone!!! I don't know who that gentleman is, but I didn't crop him out of the picture, so you have an idea of the size we're talking about!!! On the platform are 16 (4 x 4) pillars, all carved again with beautiful women and mystical beings!
The lowest frieze is of elephants in all possible postures including enclosed in a stable, walked by soldiers, eating trees, playing, and even giving birth (remember similar depiction in Kanchipuram?)!!! Above this frieze are 2 friezes of nagas (snake like humans), yalis (mystical lion like creatures), shalabanjikas (women with trees) and erotic poses! Try to find the giraffe in it (which isn't a local animal!). Finally, right atop is another short frieze of royal entourage incl elephants, horses, soldiers, attendants, palanquins etc.
Finally as I came back to the entrance after going all around the platform, I was just pulled by something all the more fantastic – the entrance of Jagmohana! Quite unusually, quite a few monuments here in Orissa, or atleast small portions of many monuments are built with the green colored Chlorite stone! It is much harder but the end result it is much more detailed miniature sculptures! Here a few sculptures and the entire doorway of the Jagmohana is made of Chlorite! There were 7 friezes making up the doorway and the detailing just made me speechless! Spot the creeper climbers and erotic poses in the vertical portions and the dancers, musicians & celestial beings in the horizontal portions?
The upper niches on 3 direction have the stunning sculptures of Sun God as Prabhata Surya, Madhyanha Surya and Ashtachala Surya (seated on a single horse), all made of Chlorite stones! Each sculpture is 3.4m tall. On either sides of each Surya are Brahma & Shiva standing. Behind this Jagamohana is a huge pile of rubbles, a portion of what was once the sky high Deula! On either sides on a separate platform are 2 elephants and 2 horses.
Behind the Jagmohana is the separate structure of Chayadevi temple. This was probably the first Surya temple built in 11th / early 12th C CE. Later after construction of the bigger temple, this became the separate shrine for Chayadevi. This is relatively a much simpler construction. However the protruding crocodile and yaali on either sides needs a mention. These are actually water outlets!!! The above image is the crocodile, focusing of the sculpture and the outlet, to give you an idea! Behind this is the tiny little brick temple of 10th-11th C CE. This has absolutely no details in it! This was excavated very recently in 1956.
To Stay:
At a walkable distance from Konark Sun Temple is the Yatrinivas Konark, run by Orissa Tourism Development Cooperation (OTDC). Prices begin at ₹1100 for AC double room.
Konark has few hotels & lodges. Puri & Bhubaneshwar has several hotels at all price points.
Puri also has an OTDC run hotel, Panthanivas Puri, on the beach, perfect to see sunrise, at a walkable distance from Puri Jagannath Temple. Prices begin at ₹2300 for AC double room.

A poster that's turned up online today, seemingly showing the title and main character of the next Assassin's Creed game, appears to have two sides.
You've seen the front, of course, but here's what a tipster says is the back.
As you could probably guess from the piratical theme, the image would suggest the game is set in the Caribbean, though interestingly this map shows only the Western half, incorporating what's today known as Cuba, the southern tip of Florida and Jamaica.
Ubisoft hasn't formally spoken about the next Assassin's Creed just yet, aside from the fact that it will star a new character and feature a new setting, and also that it will be out next fiscal year.
You can see a larger version of the image below.

(The Root) — The Supremes have delivered their verdict on the constitutionality of President Barack Obama's chief legislative achievement: the Affordable Care Act. And in a fortunate though unpredicted twist of fate, Obama won.
Now it's time to separate fact from fiction and unpack all the lies that Republicans told in their attempt to destroy the most fundamental American ideal: the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Over the past three years, fierce political debates have been largely fueled by a Republican propaganda machine promoting an anti-health-care-reform narrative and using the perceived pejorative "Obamacare" to brand an otherwise-popular program as suspect.
GOP operatives and conservative pundits have skillfully played on the ignorance of America's electorate, calling the ACA the "crown jewel of socialism" and "government takeover" of health insurance. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The attack campaign employed by the GOP establishment is reminiscent of the totalitarian government described in George Orwell's seminal work 1984, in which the ruling party — intent on maintaining control — feeds its populace fabricated news stories and misinformation, engendering a de facto mind control that keeps citizens blissfully unaware of their diminished state.
What has now become known as Orwellian tactics, in homage to the author, refers to the systematic indoctrination of nonsensical statements such as those from the novel, including "war is peace," "slavery is freedom" and "ignorance is strength." The dogma reflects an inherent contradiction, but lies are accepted as truth simply because government authorities perpetuate it. Originally published in 1949, Orwell's masterpiece envisioned a distant, unknown future.
Welcome to the future.
Socialism by Any Other Name Is "Romneycare"
Republican elected officials and their newly crowned leader Mitt Romney have campaigned on a message that demonizes the current legislation, ignores their past support for its foundational principles and purports an intent to replace it without ever offering any specificity. Indeed, the GOP fails to explain how it intends to provide universal health care by destroying universal health care coverage.
Even now, just moments after the Supreme Court announced its landmark decision to uphold the law, Majority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) announced that the Republican-led House of Representatives will begin passing legislation to dismantle the law. Of course these acts are ceremonial, since any such changes would be dead on arrival in the Democrat-led Senate. Yet Republicans persist in their attempted obstruction. Why? This is Orwellian strategy at its best and its worst: deceiving people into opposing what is in their own best interest.
Like The Root on Facebook. Follow us on Twitter.
Romney, in particular, challenges the president's leadership and never answers for the fact that he supported and signed into law a near replica of ACA when he was governor of Massachusetts. Indeed, his program provided the blueprint for Obama's national vision; yet Republicans and their base voters seem so blinded by Obama's brown skin that they can barely taste the snake oil of Romney's lies.
In his staged televised reaction to the Supreme Court announcement, with the Capitol framed in the background, it was clear that Romney had come to Washington with hopes of giving a victory speech. Instead he displayed an impotent hubris: "As you might imagine, I disagree with the Supreme Court's decision," he quipped.
Barack Obama came into office intent on fulfilling a promise to expand health care coverage to more than 30 million uninsured Americans and countless underinsured. The reform legislation was duly passed by a Democratic-controlled Congress with very little Republican support — this, despite the program's origins as a GOP proposal by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank.
In an attempt to avoid anticipated opposition to a European-style single-payer system, Obama compromised to incorporate a capitalist model that exercised the now infamous individual mandate — a way to keep profit-driven insurance companies at the center of the health care market and reaping financial rewards from both life and death.
That provision alone ensured that this legislation would never conflict with the dynamics of capitalism. Unlike truly socialist programs in European democracies like those in England and France, or New World universal systems in Canada and Australia, the Obama plan is not government-controlled but, rather, government-facilitated.
The key difference between that and true socialism — to the chagrin of the ignorant Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann and Rush Limbaugh — is that in socialism, the state controls, funds and provides services with little or no choice for the consumer. The American plan, which allows users to choose their own doctors and offers privatized options or the ability to opt out altogether (for a penalty), is anything but socialism. Under the GOP's misguided logic, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and farm subsidies would be communist intrusions imported from Kenya, Indonesia or Massachusetts.
Sifting Truth From Lies: Who Benefits? Who Lives? Who Thrives?
Sadly, what has been lost in the endless debate over the legislation's legitimacy is the fact that millions of American citizens are already experiencing broader coverage at lower costs. All this before the full law, and its mandate, become effective in 2014.
Approximately 54 million Americans have received free preventive services on their private plans. According to reports released from the office of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, millions of women will begin receiving free coverage for a package of comprehensive women's preventive services, including breast-cancer screenings.
In 2011, 32.5 million senior citizens received at least one or two preventive services, and more than half that number have benefited from no-cost preventive services in the first few months of 2012 alone. One-third of the American population — 105 million people — no longer have lifetime limits on their coverage.
Up to 17 million children with pre-existing conditions can no longer be denied coverage by insurers. And 6.6 million young adults under the age of 26 — most of whom are unemployed since the Bush-Cheney recession — have been allowed to stay on their parents' health insurance plans.
Medicare services for senior citizens have also expanded, with 5.3 million seniors saving $3.7 billion on prescription drugs. According to data released by the Department of Health and Human Services, more than 220,000 people saved $184.5 million — an average savings of $837 per senior citizen, a significant amount for elderly people living on limited incomes and increasingly reliant on family members. Prior to reform implementation, seniors faced paying for benefits like cancer screenings and cholesterol checks out of their own pockets.
Working adults also came into the fold. Around 360,000 employers have used the Small Business Health Care Tax Credit, which assists businesses in providing more than 2 million workers and their families with private coverage.
Public Perceptions, Media Narratives and Real-Life Alternatives
A recent study by the Project of Excellence in Journalism has found that terms used by Republican opponents to describe universal health care were more prevalent in the mainstream press, and thereby dominated public perceptions — whether merit-based or not. As E.J. Dionne points out in the Washington Post, phrases like "government-run" were far more likely to be used than terms such as "pre-existing conditions."
The inconvenient truth if Obama loses is this: An ill-informed and increasingly uninsured public will need to contend with the repercussions of a Romney presidency and conservative legislature. What happens if health care reform is dismantled?
The widespread lack of health care insurance in U.S. society already costs millions to both the government and privately insured citizens alike, via higher premiums. Of course, the cost to uninsured Americans is either quality of life or life itself.
It seems what Republicans aren't saying is that they're happy for people to die. But Rep. Paul Ryan's proposed budget says it for them. The plan defunds most of the Obama reform's subsidies and throws America's poor off of Medicaid services, with no viable alternative.
This, of course, disproportionately affects African Americans, Hispanics and poor whites. And Ryan's budget does all this while giving deeper tax cuts to billionaires. In what Twilight Zone is a policy like that given any political legitimacy?
Of course, Romney lauded Ryan's plan. While decrying health care reform and government-financed services to the poor, Mitt and Ann are busy finding ways to invest their $250 million fortune — or hide it offshore in the Cayman Islands and Luxembourg.
The day of reckoning has come: Affordable health care is no longer a question but, indeed, the answer. President Obama made a humble acknowledgment of this fact in his official statement. "I didn't do this because it's good politics," he said. "I did it because it's good for the country."
In light of the Supreme Court decision, Americans have an even clearer choice come this November. Barack Obama cares. Romney and his GOP colleagues most assuredly do not.

The twitterverse is alive with tweets about Justice Scalia's headgear for today's inauguration. At the risk of putting all the fun speculation to an end . . . The hat is a custom-made replica of the hat depicted in Holbein's famous portrait of St. Thomas More. It was a gift from the St. Thomas More Society of Richmond, Virginia. We presented it to him in November 2010 as a memento of his participation in our 27th annual Red Mass and dinner.
[UPDATE: Many have asked for more details about Justice Scalia's hat. It was made in Richmond, Virginia by milliner Camille Parham. Richmond lawyer and St. Thomas More Society executive committee member Stephen Reardon spearheaded our search for a "St. Thomas More hat" and presented the hat to Justice Scalia at the dinner after our Red Mass. A picture from the presentation and one from Justice Scalia's visit earlier in the day to the University of Richmond School of Law are below.]

A procedure is developed by which the variance of each fitted parameter of a watershed model can be determined. This information can be used to determine the degree to which the model parameters can be related to physical watershed characteristics. The method is illustrated by applying the Boughton model to several watersheds and examining the coefficient of variation of each optimized parameter.
