We just got back to the hotel, which by the way has some amazing amenities. We spent about three hours practicing on the floor today. We got a couple of good play sets in and put up some shots, but it was mostly just to get people tuned in, and ready to play for our opener tomorrow. Were being treated extremely well by all the students and school officials, and it has been especially nice for me to be able to shake their hand and thank them in their native language for all that they have done for us and will continue to do throughout the week.

Its been a long an eventful day. We got up early in the morning for our 10 o'clock tip off against the host Kainan University. Fans started filling up stands on both sides of the arena fairly quickly as we began to warm up. Everything moved pretty quickly after the opening ceremonies and we found ourselves playing a respectable basketball team in Kainan. The game presentation was exciting, with music blasting on the PA system on both ends of the floor, and a packed arena of Taiwanese fans armed with thundersticks. We took an early 10-0 lead, and when the host team made their first free throw the cheers were deafening. Halfway through the second quarter, I got the call down the bench and checked in to the game. The announcer used my Chinese name and announced that I was a local kid, so I subbed in to a thundering standing ovation.
Later tonight, we caught some highlights of our game on ESPN Sports Center, which included an interview clip where I talked about the excitement in the building and the great fans that came out. The people here have a great sense of pride for Taiwanese people and they definitely gave me something that I will never forget for the rest of my life. We all had a chance to thank the fans and the school officials in a cultural exchange conference after the game, so that was good. Overall, I thought we played a decent game, but we could use some sharpening, and we definitely have to start shooting better. But we got a good win, and it has been an amazing experience for me so far.

Our first day in Taiwan proved to be a great experience. The team had a 10 o'clock departure time so most players planned on heading to breakfast a little before 9. Of course, many players experienced jet lag and woke up much earlier. Bill was wide awake at 4:30 am. The breakfast here at our five-star hotel is absolutely great. I sampled a wide variety of fruits and enjoyed drinking many little yogurt fruit drinks. After breakfast we headed out to practice at Kainan University. Driving through the streets in the early morning was great. We saw schools, stores, and even street stands that had all types of meat hanging from it.
When we got to Kainan the first noticeable sight is the massive main building that looks similar to an old Chinese palace. When we walked into the gym, all the workers setting up the stands immediately stopped and started staring at us like we were stars. We held practice for about 2 hours and had an opportunity to just hang out afterwards. Some players shot around, some players (Billy) signed autographs and took pictures, and others ate lunch. Our lunch was a type of take out box that included beef, rice, fish, and octopus. We had some good laughs and headed back to the hotel for showers.
When we got back to the hotel, Krull, Brandon, Barnett, Alan, Mike, and I headed down to the 4th floor to enjoy the spa. We hung out in the hot tub and the pool for a while and then most prepared to go out for the night. Billy and Dou decided to fall asleep at about 5 pm while a few guys took a 40 minute cab ride into Taipei. Krull, Brandon, Evans, Coach Eslinger, and I walked the streets around our hotel. The best part of the night was our time in a little cafe; since we had received practically the same thing for dinner that we had for lunch, a few of us were craving a little more food. We ordered some delicious cake and Coach and I ordered some Korean Citron Iced Tea. It was a great time with lots of laughs and friendly conversation with the workers. On our way home, we stopped by a fruit market to look around. We had a difficult time communicating with the workers but it was fun nonetheless. I bought a popsicle at a store across from our hotel on the way home and it was terrible. It had beans and other things that I had not idea what they were in it. When we got back to the hotel at 8:30, I headed to my room and crawled into bed satisfied from an awesome first day.

Revision as of 17:33, 1 September 2011
eAccelerator is available in AUR. When I was writing this page the latest version was 0.9.6.1 and installation was quite easy.
eAccelerator is a free open-source PHP accelerator & optimizer. It increases the performance of PHP scripts by caching them in their compiled state, so that the overhead of compiling is almost completely eliminated. It also optimizes scripts to speed up their execution. eAccelerator typically reduces server load and increases the speed of your PHP code by 1-10 times.
Download the tarball from AUR or use your favorite tool for AUR.
IMPORTANT: If you are having problems with open_basedir, you need to edit the PKGBUILD, change the ./configure line to
./configure --without-eaccelerator-use-inode --prefix=/usr
I recommend that you do it anyway since future versions of eAccelerator won't be using inodes. You can fine more info here: http://eaccelerator.net/ticket/104#comment:13
Compile the package with
makepkg -s
Enable it in PHP
After the discussion here and the guidance by Spider.007 (also the maintainer of the AUR package) it is clear that you should do nothing special in order for eAccelerator to work.
Check if installation was ok
You can either from the command line or using phpinfo(). If the command line php binary uses the same configuration file as the php-fastcgi version and/or the mod_php version, you can check it by executing:
php -v
If installation was succesfull you should see something similar to the following:
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2011 Zend Technologies with eAccelerator v0.9.6.1, Copyright (c) 2004-2010 eAccelerator, by eAccelerator
This will show eAccelerator has been loaded successfully, but this doesn't necessarily show that eAccelerator is working like it should. Load a php script running on your webserver in your browser. Assuming you didn't disable the filecache with shm_only = 1, a cached script should appear in the cache directory.
You could/should also check using phpinfo(). To do so add:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
to a file and open it with your browser. eAccelerator should have its own section.
If you get this error
PHP Warning: Module 'eAccelerator' already loaded in Unknown on line 0
Then eAccelerator is loaded twice in your config files. Make sure you are not loading eAccelerator in both php.ini and its own config file. If you followed this wiki you shouldn't be having this problem.
If after upgrading php (through pacman) you get this
[eAccelerator] This build of "eAccelerator" was compiled for PHP version 5.3.6. Rebuild it for your PHP version (5.3.8) or download precompiled binaries.
Then uninstall eAccelerator (I did a pacman -Rcsun eaccelerator), rebuild it from AUR and reinstall. Everything should be fine once again.
- Lighttpd_for_SSL_and_non-SSL#FastCGI_and_PHP_with_eAcceleration - helped me install eAccelerator and contains most of the above info and more.

Police in Greece are hunting for a far-right MP after he slapped one left-wing female politician and threw a glass of water at another during a live TV debate.
Following the incident, the attacker Ilias Kasidiaris was locked in a room at the Athens studios but broke down a door and escaped, according to the TV host.
An arrest warrant has been issued for Mr Kasidiaris, spokesman for the Golden Dawn party, as tensions ahead of fresh elections in Greece became explosive.
The blonde woman who got the water thrown at her took it all pretty calmly.
I think our politicians are too afraid of being voted out of office to be interesting. My mayor is kind of fun, though. He's a RINO (Jim Fouts).
He was asked in the most recent election cycle what his birthdate was. He refused to give it, saying something to the effect of "I like to date younger women, so I don't want them to know how old I really am".

Electric Oven
An electric oven includes a body, a food container and a lid covered on the food container. The body includes an outer body and an inner body combined together, with a heat-insulating layer formed between the outer and the inner body.
A heating tube and a heat preserving material are deposited in the heat-insulating layer, and the heating tube is laid around on an outer wall of the inner body. A bottom plate is fixed with the bottom of the body; a turning switch for setting heating temperature and time is fixed on an outer surface of the outer body, electrically connected with the heating tube and a power source.
The food container has an upper flange to be supported on an upper circumferential edge of the inner body for food to be placed therein for roasting and two grip members for taking the food container off the body.

Hip-hop wasn't exactly bereft of do-it-all visionary control freaks before Kanye West showed up — just ask Chuck D, the RZA, or DJ Quik — but nobody took the auteur approach to Yeezy's extremes. Of all the ways Mr. West has contributed to rap's evolution over the past decade, to me the most exciting is the way he has maintained and escalated the concept of album as art project, and rarely at the expense of enjoyment. Kanye is an expert curator, and his records are painstaking monuments to his inspiration. Each one is designed to be nothing short of an event and a new addition to the canon — short-term smash, long-term masterpiece. In the former respect he always comes through; the latter, more often than not.
Thom Yorke famously sang, "Ambition makes you look pretty ugly," and sure enough, all the self-important fanfare has accumulated Kanye heaps of derision to go along with the money and acclaim. (In one of his goofiest lyrics, he laments, "People talk so much shit about me in barber shops, they forget to get their hair cut.") But in Kanye's case it's just as accurate to say transparency is what makes him look ugly. He is an ideal rapper for the social media era, churning out solipsistic hip-hop treatises the way some people write awkwardly confessional Facebook updates or pour their hearts out on YouTube. In "Runaway," he let his pathos hang out to the extent that he might as well have sent us all a picture of his dick. (It's remarkable that it took him this long to end up on reality TV.) What's revealed through our collective window into Kanye's life is often obnoxious, even grotesque, but it's presented with an artfulness that elevates it beyond mere narcissistic blather. He blasts the tensions that drive him to mythic proportions and puts them on a museum pedestal. His records work because those tensions are a compelling splatter of humanity — and because he's a musical genius.
But the tensions! The most prominent is the battle between Kanye's massive ego and his deep self-doubt, a conflict whose communication has escalated from something like diary entries to something more like Star Wars intro text over the course of his catalog. A psychology class could spend days dissecting a line like "We all self-conscious, I'm just the first to admit it," and that's a relatively subtle example of the Kanye self-esteem ouroboros. By the time My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy rolled around, he might as well have been projecting his neuroses on the moon.
There's also the whole "first nigga with a Benz and a backpack" thing — the tension between the expectations of clashing cultures and the demands of his muse. Kanye detonated the boundaries between rap's flossy, hedonistic mainstream and its grimy, ideologue underground with The College Dropout. It was a ballsy move; I sometimes forget just how revolutionary it was because the distinction is all but moot in the hip-hop landscape Kanye helped create, one where T.I. lends his platinum drawl to a skronking El-P beat and nobody blinks. Yeezy's tendency toward flouting genre taboos and redrawing the map didn't stop after his debut; the AutoTuned wailing of 808s & Heartbreak was even ballsier, and it basically invented Drake.
Those and Kanye's other left turns (dalliances with symphonic tropes, club music, prog rock) were conscious artistic decisions, even as they functioned as vehicles for the impulsive mind that gave us "Taylor, I'm a let you finish" and "George Bush doesn't care about black people." He's a loose cannon, but in the studio he finds a way to funnel those outbursts into meticulously crafted tours de force. The wide-eyed kid from Chicago (no need to fill in his pre-fame backstory, just listen to "Last Call") has accumulated an astonishing wealth of music over the course of less than a decade in the public eye. His body of work is well worth poking and prodding in order to fully appreciate the scope of what he's accomplished. Let's do it.
Start the Countdown here.

President Obama Says He Had No Idea His Own NSA Was Spying On Angela Merkel
from the that-seems-like-a-problem dept
There are strong indications that it was the SCS that targeted the cell phone of Chancellor Angela Merkel. This is suggested by a document that apparently comes from an NSA database in which the agency records its targets. This document, which SPIEGEL has seen, is what set the cell phone scandal in motion.Spiegel has a lot more, including some revealing information about how the NSA uses the US embassy in Berlin to intercept all kinds of communications.
The document contains Merkel's cell phone number. An inquiry to her team revealed that it is the number the chancellor uses mainly to communicate with party members, ministers and confidants, often by text message. The number is, in the language of the NSA, a "Selector Value." The next two fields determine the format ("raw phone number") and the "Subscriber," identified as "GE Chancellor Merkel."
[....] The time stamp is noteworthy. The order was transferred to the "National Sigint Requirements List," the list of national intelligence targets, in 2002. That was the year Germany held closely watched parliamentary elections and Merkel battled Edmund Stoiber of Bavaria's Christian Social Union to become the conservatives' chancellor candidate. It was also the year the Iraq crisis began heating up. The document also lists status: "A" for active. This status was apparently valid a few weeks before President Obama's Berlin visit in June 2013.
But then there's this incredible claim: President Obama insists he had no idea about it when he spoke to Merkel:
Merkel spoke with Obama on Wednesday afternoon, calling him from her secure landline in her Chancellery office. Both spoke English. According to the Chancellery, the president said that he had known nothing of possible monitoring, otherwise he would have stopped it. Obama also expressed his deepest regrets and apologized.Now, remember, this is the very same President Obama, who just a couple months ago claimed that every time more Snowden news broke, it would be the first he'd heard about some of these programs, and he'd have to go ask the NSA what they were really doing. Could this be one of those situations? It seems almost impossible to believe that the NSA would be spying on the head of state of one of our closest allies without the President being aware. As the Spiegel report notes, those kinds of orders would have to be renewed with approval from the top:
Among the politically decisive questions is whether the spying was authorized from the top: from the US president. If the data is accurate, the operation was authorized under former President George W. Bush and his NSA chief, Michael Hayden. But it would have had to be repeatedly approved, including after Obama took office and up to the present time. Is it conceivable that the NSA made the German chancellor a surveillance target without the president's knowledge?However, after trying to avoid the question, over the weekend, the NSA admitted that Keith Alexander had never briefed the President about spying on Merkel (though, it's possible he heard about it from others).
This makes it sound, again, like the NSA has gone rogue. How can President Obama seriously allow Keith Alexander and James Clapper to remain in charge when they've just made him look like a complete fool, supposedly totally unaware of what his own intelligence apparatus is up to -- especially when it concerns programs that, once revealed, can have a serious negative impact on a variety of diplomatic fronts?
And for what benefit? The Spiegel report makes it clear that the NSA saw little value in spying on Merkel. They just did it because... reasons.
Former NSA employee Thomas Drake does not see this as a contradiction. "After the attacks of September 11, 2001, Germany became intelligence target number one in Europe," he says. The US government did not trust Germany, because some of the Sept. 11 suicide pilots had lived in Hamburg. Evidence suggests that the NSA recorded Merkel once and then became intoxicated with success, says Drake. "It has always been the NSA's motto to conduct as much surveillance as possible," he adds.The fact that President Obama hasn't yet fired Alexander in particular is fairly incredible, given this latest revelation.

ACParadise Network: American Cosplay Paradise American Cosplay Experience American Cosplay Snapshots
I first started cosplaying in 2000, pretty much around my first con experience. At first I thought it was just something that I would just do at cons maybe once in awhile, but soon it became an extension of myself. I cosplay because it's fun. I'm a realist so I understand that what I do while it may seem cool to me is completly dorky to others.

For digital marketers, understanding the audience a platform offers access to is crucial. After all, if you don't know who you will be reaching, it's all but impossible to craft messages and experiences that resonate.
The good news: digital channels are generally understood far better than their offline counterparts because users can be tracked far more comprehensively and accurately. The bad news: the make-up of digital channels can change, and sometimes quite rapidly. This is particularly true in social channels, where what's hot today is not hot tomorrow.
Social media marketers may be forced to grapple with this in a big way soon as the audience of the world's largest social network, Facebook, changes.
While younger users -- an elusive and often lucrative target for marketers -- may not be abandoning Facebook like a party that has been shut down by the police, Facebook's disclosure that "some" of them are starting to look for something better to do is particularly notable given the company's stance on its staying power with this group less than a year ago.
In its IPO prospectus, Facebook shut down the notion that tech-savvy youngsters were leaving, telling prospective investors, "We also believe that younger users have higher levels of engagement with the web and mobile devices in general and with Facebook specifically."
A problem for Facebook, a bigger problem for marketers
Obviously, an exodus of younger users would create problems for Facebook. These users, who are often the earliest adopters, have traditionally been the backbone of Facebook and as the most mobile-engaged demographic, they could throw a wrench in Facebook's ongoing effort to monetize mobile users, which has been showing progress of late.
But if younger users start to flee Facebook, it could be an even bigger nightmare for social media marketers. After all, many of them will need to rethink what the world's largest social network means to their brands and how the experiences they've created on Facebook might need to be altered as the demographic make-up of Facebook changes. In some cases, these marketers may find that their brands are positioned inappropriately. For instance, a brand that had assumed its initiatives on Facebook were reaching users between the ages of 18 and 25 might have to reconsider those initiatives if it turns out that they're increasingly reaching older users.
Social media as a dynamic channel
Demographic shifts are not a new phenomenon, nor are they a complete mystery to marketers. As populations change, marketers notice and change their messages.
But digital channels, and social channels in particular, are capable of seeing significant shifts on much shorter time spans than most marketers are used to. Instead of these shifts tracking the gradual changes that take place within the general population at large as birth rates change and people age, for example, a shift seen on a service like Facebook can take place relatively quickly as the next big thing becomes the last big thing.
While it's too soon to suggest that Facebook is undergoing an earth-shattering demographic shakeup, and it's important to note that Facebook has not defined "younger users", marketers must accept and embrace the fact that social media is inherently a dynamic channel. As such, it's not unreasonable to expect that popular services will see major audience changes on the order of years, not decades, and in fact, they should plan for this.
That means preparing for the eventuality that a brand will need to reposition its presence on a popular social network, and in some cases, change who it's targeting entirely. Perhaps more importantly, it also means assessing social investments with the understanding that they may not produce assets that grow predictably or linearly.

My wishes are fairly simple at this point, as I've not come close to exhausting the available databases. I merely wish I could afford the subscriptions to all of the databases I need. A good start would be Ancestry.com, as I've netted some data on their freebie events, and I know there's more in there I haven't had access to. I'd also wish for free access (or money to afford access) to all of the state and national archives so I could purchase hardcopy of all of the records I wanted.
Alas, as the economy has soured, such copies have become a more important source of revenue, and the pricing has gone up in a number of cases. A single Social Security SS-5 is now $27.00, and most state records are $9.00 or so, and I need enough of them that it is cost prohibitive. I recently ordered a copy of my paternal grandfather's military service record, which will cost me a hefty $60.00. Not something I can afford for each of my male relatives who were in the services. So I stick to mainly digital images of the documents I can find, which has the added benefit of not generating more paper.
Another wish would be for more hours in the day to actually do the searching and retrieval of those records...

To submit a question for this page send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
How does MCPS spend its money?
The value of a school division is in the people - highly qualified
staff educate the children in Montgomery County Public Schools every
day. As a result, most of our money is spent in personnel costs.
What cuts have already been made to the MCPS budget?
MCPS has cut:
How much revenue is generated by a one cent property tax increase?
What is the monetary value of increasing class size?
How does closing a school create cost savings in the budget?
When a building is closed, the required energy and maintenance costs
for the building are reduced. Also, the support staff in a building is
reduced when schools are combined. Closing a school of approximately
250 students will generate cost savings of about $250,000.
What is an FTE?
FTE stands for Full Time Equivalent. When planning budgets, we use
this acronym to symbolize how many staff positions would have to be cut
based on the average teacher salary. When finalized, the numbers may be
different - some staff members may make more than the average amount
and some may make less. However, using FTE allows us to estimate how
many positions we would lose.
What is the value of an FTE?
MCPS uses the average teacher salary including benefits to set an FTE value. It is $63,800 for the 2014-2015 school year.
How can I help stop further decrease in education funding?
Contact your local legislator. Tell them that you support education
in Montgomery County. If you would support a local tax increase to help
bring MCPS back to the level of funding that used to exist and the
level of services MCPS used to provide, please let them know.
Montgomery County Board of Supervisors

Chemical Modification of GaAs with TAT Peptide and Alkylthiol Self-Assembled Monolayers
Additional materials available (2)
Licensed according to this deed.
Published on
The use of self-assembled monolayers (SAM) on semiconductors creates a basis for the design and creation of bioelectronics, such as biosensors. The interface between the surface and an organic monolayer can change significant electrical and physiochemical properties of a biological device. Therefore, this research examined the orientation and packing of peptide and alkylthiol monolayers on the bulk III-V semiconductor, Gallium Arsenide (GaAs). The surface of GaAs was chemically modified with 1-octadecanethiol (ODT), 6-mercapto-1-hexanol (MHL), and two different sequences of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) derived TAT peptide. By the use of Fourier transform - infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (FT-IRRAS) and contact angle measurements, the monolayers were analyzed for crystallization and hydrophobicity, respectively. It was found that ODT and MHL alone showed fairly ordered packing, however, ODT created a more hydrophobic surface than MHL. When mixed together at different concentrations, the monolayers were disordered on the surface. Also, monolayers exhibited disorder when TAT peptides were mixed with both ODT and MHL alone. All in all, the understanding of the semiconductor-organic monolayer interface is advancing quickly and providing a foundation for the design and creation of biosensors.

If Michael and Lindsey Park-atti ever want new careers, overseeing the design and build of modern homes that are way outside-the-box might be an option.
The young professionals were newlymarried and living in the historic Westminster building at 99th Avenue and 114th Street, when they found their dream property in Riverdale.
"We weren't really ready for it," says Michael, who had been scouring the web regularly on the off chance something might pop up in their favourite neighbourhood.
Yet they couldn't resist the south-facing, pie-shaped lot that filled all of the requirements on their wish list, including a command-ing view of the river valley and a short walk to work downtown.
The original 1912 house had become an uninhabitable pigeon coop, says Michael, so they designed and built a new home around what they could keep, including the front yard's large, ma-ture tree and an original brick retaining wall.
The couple are fans of a truly diverse range of decor. While living in their Oliver apartment, they developed a taste for art deco, with its bold geometric shapes.
Yet they also have a pen-chant for both modern and rustic styling. If something they discover is over-the-top expensive or difficult to source, they'll find some way to get it. Or, because they enjoy being creatively hands-on, they'll figure out how to make it.
All of which explains how the interior of their home came to be designed around the kitchen's island and countertops, which are rare, century-old, reclaimed redwood. Rather than leaving the precious wood rotting in the ground, the state of California has permitted limited harvesting of the ancient trees' stumps, says Lindsey. The couple got a kick out of scrolling online through pic-tures of lumberjacks holding up slabs of redwood, before making their choice. Their selection arrived via Fed Ex in the wintertime, so its ends had to be sealed with spe-cial oil to prevent warping while it acclimatized. Then a carpenter friend began the painstaking process of hand-planing it. They chose not to apply a laminate, preferring instead to enjoy the wood's natural patina that comes with time and use. Three leftover pieces have become floating shelves in the adjoin-ing living room.
Interesting treatment of wood is a recurring theme throughout the home.
The flooring is an eclectic mix of reclaimed fir from a Victoria warehouse and dark-stained concrete that has been sealed so it looks as wet as it did on the day it was poured.
The striking exterior is composed of white, Har-diePanel sheets and six tonnes of cedar siding that the couple hauled home from Vancouver Island on a rented flatbed trailer, to save money. Michael then spent a week charring the cedar, using an industrial-grade propane-burning tool called a tiger torch. This chemical-free method, which is based on a centuries-old Japanese practice called Yakisugi or Shou-sugi-ban, increases the wood's lifespan, and its fire and pest resistance. It also ensures low mainten-ance because the finish lasts for decades and never needs staining.
The couple wanted the home to be as environment-ally friendly as possible, so the walls are super-insulat-ed through double-stud con-struction and the windows - including the 40-foot-long, floor-to-ceiling bank running across the top floor - are all triple-glazed. LED lighting and passive solar materials have also been in-corporated into the design. Rooftop overhangs were even calculated so the concrete floor is exposed to direct sunlight during cold winter days, creating a heat sink that releases warmth throughout the night.
Understanding that their vision for precision might not be easy for a contractor to follow, the couple became their own general contract-ors. Then they teamed up with local designer Jason Ruhl, who drafted the home's plans and, according to Lind-say, helped make the process very personal by being open to their ideas. These included a "reverse-layout," in which the bedrooms are on the main floor and the living spaces up top.
Lindsey always wanted to live in an old, brick house, while Michael likes fall-ing asleep in a clutter-free space and waking up in a calm environment. So their master bedroom contains a unique compromise. The bed's "headboard" is a wall of red, clay bricks, and the room spills out onto a sun-catching balcony, overlooking River-dale's historic heart. To their delight, the source of the bricks is rumoured to be that area's former brickyard. The unusual feature wall not only adds a focal point of beauty, but also provides radiant heat when they want it.
To further reduce clutter in the bedroom, there's a large, adjoining dressing area, com-plete with a chandelier, ele-gant, silver-and-black dam-ask wallpaper, and an antique vanity that belonged to Lind-sey's mom.
When the busy couple find the time, they enjoy enter-taining, often in the spacious walkout basement entertain-ment area and spa, built into the natural slope of the prop-erty. It features a zebra car-pet Michael found for sale on eBray by an African govern-ment, and a Finnish sauna.
But when the weather is good, their favourite place to lounge or host guests is the large rooftop patio. The vista is dramatic and beauti-ful any time of year and it has been designed to support 40 centimetres of soil for a fu-ture garden.
As with the rest of the home, the Parkattis plan to grow into it.

FORT MYERS, Fla. (March 10, 2010) - The ETSU women's tennis team extended its six match winning streak Wednesday as the Lady Bucs dropped Atlantic Sun Conference foe Florida Gulf Coast 6-1 at the FGCU Tennis Complex in Fort Myers, Fla.
With the win ETSU improved to 7-2 with a perfect 3-0 mark in A-Sun play, while FGCU dropped to 4-6 overall with a 2-3 record in conference action.
"We played good enough to win today," said head coach Steve Brooks. "Florida Gulf Coast is an up and coming team in the conference so I'm proud of how the girls took care of business."
As doubles play got underway ETSU won all three matches. The Lady Bucs began their victories as senior Yevgeniya Stupak (Kyiv, Ukraine) and junior Kelly Hotzhausen (Johannesburg, South Africa) earned a 8-3 win at No. 1. ETSU followed that up as the sophomore team of Paula Jamie (Madrid, Spain) and Karina Kedzo (Puerto Ordaz, Venezuela) picked up a 9-8 (7-4) come from behind victory at No. 2. Not to be outdone junior Tara Sheets (Gate City, Va.) and sophomore Diana Navroska (Kviv, Ukraine) closed out a close 9-7 win at No. 3.
"The doubles matches were very tough tonight," said Brooks. "I didn't know if we could comeback at two and three because we were down by four points at one time, but I give credit to the girls for having a lot of fight and determination. That was the difference that propelled us to get the early point."
As singles action started ETSU stayed in control as Stupak, Jaime, Kedzo, Navroska and junior Andra Voinea (Brasov, Romania) all picked up wins.
"Andra played really well for us today," said Zaatini. "Right now I think the girls are playing at a level that they know their capable of doing all the time. In the past this trip to Florida has been tough on us, but every player has worked hard getting ready for the heat and altitude this week. If we can keep our feet moving and play clean then we should be able to keep this up against a talented Stetson team."
ETSU returns to action as they square off in a rematch of the 2009 A-Sun Championship as the Lady Bucs take on Stetson with a 2 p.m match Saturday in DeLand, Fla.
Doubles 1. Stupak/Holtzhausen (ETSU) def. Rendon/Almeida (FGCU) 8-4 Singles 1. Stupak (ETSU) def. Sweeting (FGCU) 6-0, 6-0

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is the unexpected, sudden death of an infant under one year of age that remains unexplained even after an autopsy and thorough medical investigation. SIDS is the leading cause of death in children between one month and one year of age, and in most cases the infant was believed to be healthy immediately before the death.
The risk for SIDS peaks between 2 and 3 months of age, and it occurs more often in male infants than in females. African American children are two to three times more likely than Caucasian children to die of SIDS, and Native American infants are three times more likely than Caucasians to succumb to SIDS. The annual incidence of SIDS has declined since 1992, a finding commonly attributed to the Back to Sleep Campaign.
While the cause of SIDS has not yet been discovered, some common factors that contribute to an increased risk of SIDS have been identified. They include:
Research suggests that SIDS occurs when an infant's body has difficulty regulating breathing, cardiovascular functions, and/or body temperature because of an underlying developmental delay or problem in parts of the brain controlling those activities. For example, some infants who succumb to SIDS are born with an abnormality in regions of the brain that control breathing and the normal arousal response. Infants born with other brain defects, possibly due to genetics, exposure to a toxic substance or lack of oxygen to the fetus (due to cigarette smoking during pregnancy, for example), may also be more susceptible to SIDS.
Scientists believe that while these developmental defects or delays alone may not cause SIDS, sudden infant death syndrome may occur when these vulnerabilities combine with other events, such as

Facetiously, Steve finishes that post with the following:
In 1972, it looked like the rank order of average intelligence was Oriental, Caucasian, Chicano, and black. But, in 2011, of course, we now see from endless studies and real world examples that the actual rank ordering appears to be Asian, non-Hispanic white, Latino, and African-American. So, everything has changed!"Asian" has been preferred over "Oriental" since the late 1930s, but the gap was narrower in 1973 than it is today. "Black" has always been and is still today more common than "African-American", though the gap has been closing over the last two decades. I've not traced the usage history of "Chicano", so I can't comment there.
What about "White" versus "Caucasian"? As far as I'm aware, the latter has never been the preferred term for referring to people of European descent in casual conversation--"white" always has been. Of course, always extends back to around 2000 or so for me, and though it may slip my mind from time to time, history in fact began before then.
To gauge the popularity of each term, in addition to "Anglo", the other recognizable descriptor for those of European descent (well, those who speak English, anyway), the percentage of total articles in The New York Times containing the terms "Whites", "Caucasians", and "Anglos" (capitalization doesn't matter), is graphed below (via NYT's handy archival site), by decade from 1851 to 1959, and by year after that:
The "Caucasians" and "Anglos" lines are not missing--they both run flat along the bottom of the graph for the entire 160 year period being considered. "Whites" is orders of magnitude more common than either of the others and has been since at least Lincoln's presidency. I could remove "Whites" from the graph and just contrast "Caucasians" and "Anglos" to bring them into better focus, but both consistently get only a handful of articles each year (around 11 and 7, respectively) compared to "Whites", which gets anywhere from several hundreds to thousands, so there's little point in doing so.
"White" is such a bland adjective or noun to use for a person, nearly as bland as the people it represents. This is, of course, in contrast to the various terms used to describe non-whites that have come in and gone over the years, a diversity in descriptors that parallels the vibrancy of non-white cultures, compared to the predictability of white 'culture', if we can even call it that!
Parenthetically, "Caucasian" tends to appear in articles mentioning Asians, while "Anglos" travels alongside Hispanics/Latinos, especially those involving Texas in some way. The latter is not surprising, since Anglo is (at least partially), like Hispanic, a linguistic characterization. It seems unnecessarily confusing to use "Caucasian" and "Asian" repeatedly in the same article though, when "White" and "Asian" would make distinctions easier, but alas, it is what it is.

A lot of people are gonna be drowning in hobo piss today!
So while most of us were enjoying fireworks, swilling cheap beer, and scarfing down wieners, social media got itself all whipped up into a frothy lather this weekend when a hashtag calling for the firing of Captain America writer Rick Remender trended on Twitter. The calls for Remender's termination came in response to the latest issue of Cap, in which vaguely 30ish Sam Wilson, The Falcon, had an alcohol-inspired night of passion with genetically engineered extra-dimensional Arnim Zola spawn Jet Black. Proponents of the hashtag insist that Black was a toddler at the beginning of Steve Rogers' stay in Zola's pocket dimension, and that, since Cap spent twelve years there, she is currently around 14 or 15 years old, and, therefore, the sexual encounter was statutory rape. However, the official position presented in the comics, from Black's own words, is that she's 23.

Who's right? Beats the hell out of me. I stopped reading that book months ago because Remender's Marvel work is kinda lackluster, and he has a shitty attitude (see all the RELATED posts in this article for more on that). There might be something there. It certainly wouldn't be the first time Remender stuck his foot in his mouth. But then, there might not. It wouldn't be the first time people got outraged over nothing either. The Daily Dot makes a case for it. being offensive.
RELATED: Thousands Could Die At Marvel's Uncanny Avengers Press Conference
Rich Johnston has another idea though. On Bleeding Cool, the rumormonger penned an article accusing the #FireRickRemender crew of being closet racists angry that a black man was sleeping with a white woman. He claimed that fans may have been confused by the inconsistent scrawlings of coasting-since-the-nineties John Romita Jr., who depicted the tween Jet Black as a toddler in the comic despite the script backing up Johnston's version of the age. In any case, Johnston's interesting tactic of countering outrage over sexism with outrage over racism took a turn for the absurd when Johnston compared Remender to William Shakespeare, since the Bard's 1595 classic Romeo and Juliet also featured teenagers having sex.

After that, comic book professionals began chiming in with sarcastic responses to the hashtag. Here's some samples:

This one was our favorite of all the tweets last night:
The drastic turn of events reportedly has corporate stuffed shirts baffled as to how to handle the whole thing. Do they fire Remender in a knee jerk reaction to the hashtag trending more than ever? Do they take advantage of all the attention and release a month's worth of #FireRickRemender variant covers? Do they hire ousted SiriusXM shock jock Anthony Cumia to write Captain America? Do they unleash a flood of hobo piss upon the internet to drown everyone, the supporters and the detractors, like a vengeful corporate God, and start fresh?
Nobody knows, but it's certainly interesting to follow the hashtag right now. So you should probably do that.

Meanwhile, Johnston's hashtag, #FireWilliamShakespeare, failed to gain traction, possibly because Twitter's 140 character limit makes it nearly impossible to tweet in sonnet form. Let us know whose side you're on in the comments below! Do it in the form of a sonnet for bonus points!

by guitarsmashley » Mon Jul 07, 2014 10:54 amThis seems like the ridiculous PC blog terror alert you guys live on? No I had to read about it on CBR first...basically someone/people with way too much time on their hands says Falcon statutory raped Jet Black in Captain America #22, because she's totally a 14 year old girl despite the fact that she says, she's had a 23rd birthday.....it all comes down to how poorly drawn children/teenagers are by JrJr.
by Herald » Mon Jul 07, 2014 10:56 amPass it on to Jude; he will show the requisite outrage.
by guitarsmashley » Mon Jul 07, 2014 10:58 amReally what bother me most is that I was wrong about Jet being brought out of Dimension Z to bang Steve Rogers...well I can't be right all the time.
by guitarsmashley » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:00 amAnd when confronted with her saying she's really 23-24 the argument shifts to how mentally she can't be 23-24 because her childhood was a product of Zola level parenting.......I hate people so much.
by Rockman » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:08 amApparently it's racist that Sam Wilson slept with her also.
by GOSD » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:10 amShe should have stayed in Dimension Z.

Interraicial interdimensional sex is the worst kind.
by GOSD » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:13 am
That's what Falcon said before he laid that pipe.
by guitarsmashley » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:16 am
You figure she was a virgin too right? Unless she's been banging hobos and killing them between issue 10 and now?
by Supersoldier Washout » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:17 amNot reading Captain America so I totally don't know what the Hell is going on.
Who is Jet Black and is the character in her 20's or is she 14?
by john lewis hawk » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:21 amIt's definitely ridiculous and I know I saw Mark Waid and Dan Slott both tweeted a blog post that proves that it wasn't rape.
The main argument against it is that Marvel is doing very good lately and very much a part of the mainstream culture so are they going to allow one of the characters from one of their movies rape a teenager? Hell no, that wouldn't be allowed to be printed at all.
That said, I did predict her and Falcon bumping uglies. Cap is too much of a boring goodie for her.
by GOSD » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:22 am
It def. seemed out of left field for Sam to knock her up THAT quickly.
by GOSD » Mon Jul 07, 2014 11:23 amCould they just get Waid back on this title?
The villain with the thought bubbles was so fucking lame.

Casey Affleck is set to executive produce and potentially star in the hunt the serial killer thriller "Boston Strangler" for Langley Park Productions and Warner Bros. Pictures.
Affleck and Chuck Maclean co-pitched the film which covers the most haunting unsolved serial murder story in U.S. history. The public was led to believe that Albert DeSalvo was the man behind the thirteen gruesome murders of women in Boston for over a year and a half in the 1960's.
Affleck would play an ambitious detective who is willing to risk career and life in a race to bring down the Strangler, while battling a political cover-up by corrupt politicians and lawyers trying to save their careers. There is still belief that more than one killer was involved, and that DeSalvo was a pawn in a bigger conspiracy.
Kevin McCormick is attached to produce.

Manchester United will reportedly sell Alexander Buttner at the first available opportunity after the defender failed to sufficiently impress new manager David Moyes.
Buttner was a surprise acquisition by Sir Alex Ferguson in the summer transfer window of last year, with the Dutchman initially having appeared set to join newly-promoted Southampton.
The player was recruited as back-up for Patrice Evra but, reports the Sunday People, Buttner has not demonstrated enough to Moyes that he is a capable deputy for the France international.
Moyes is now ready to move Buttner on, with the Manchester United boss identifying Fabio as his preferred alternative to Evra when he decides to rest the veteran left-back.
Buttner, 24, has made a total of only 15 appearances in over a season at Old Trafford and could now find that he is sold in the January transfer window.
Reinforcements at left-back, meanwhile, are reported to remain a priority for Moyes, who is still looking to recruit Leighton Baines from former club Everton.

Witness Justice was established in 2001 by survivors, for survivors. The vision for Witness Justice is to address the gaps in service experienced by survivors of violence and trauma, no matter the nature of the incident, where or when the incident occurred, or whether a crime was ever reported. The organization, inspired by this vision, is now fueled by a diverse and talented group of survivors, advocates, experts, and volunteers.
Witness Justice is unique in that the organization works directly with victims of all types of crime from communities all over the country to provide support and information, to promote physical and emotional healing, and to serve as a uniquely understanding presence and sounding board. Given the large disparity in services from city to city, county to county, and state to state, the importance of having a national program that addresses a survivor's needs and promotes equal opportunity for healing and justice is especially important.

Wow, I haven't posted in forever. This past month has been from Hell - constant illness, cold, dark, wet weather - I have always hated February, which stinks because my birthday is in February.
In any event, I am not doing this month's Daring Bakers Challenge. I have been too sick, too busy, and too distracted to spend 7 hours doing something I'm not good at nor particularly enjoy - make bread. Hopefully March will be sweet - all the way around.
I have a bunch of recipes to post, so stay tuned.

I am sooo stuffed. Thanksgiving day was just wonderful. A great time with family, watching the Cowboys snooze while feasting on classic family favorites. The sweet potato casserole is always a big hit. Almost as popular as my sweeties' home made peach cobbler. Mmmmm. But it wouldn't be a Thanksgiving dinner without the stuffing. Today's Bird-A-Day art, inspired by the leftovers in my brother Gary's kitchen. Yum.

BRIDGEPORT -- A 22-year-old Maine woman, who had a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old Monroe boy she met while playing the online video game "Call of Duty," was given a suspended sentence Friday.
"These laws are on the books to protect children, and these types of incidents can have a negative effect on them as they get older," Judge Robert Devlin told Cassandra Grant, as she stood beside her lawyer in state Superior Court. "But I'm confident this sentence is the appropriate one to impose."
On the conviction of risk of injury to a minor, the judge sentenced Grant to a five-year suspended term, followed by 10 years of probation.
He also ordered her to register as a sex offender and to make a $200 donation to the Center for Children and Families.
During the short hearing, Senior Assistant State's Attorney Cornelius Kelly told the judge that the boy's family did not want Grant to go to prison.
"She had cooperated with police and admitted her guilt," Kelly said.
Grant's lawyer, James Ruane, told the judge that his client worked two jobs while going to college and lost her job with a bank in Maine as a result of her arrest.
She is now a shift manager at Domino's Pizza in Rockland, Maine.
"This was an isolated incident in my client's life," Ruane said later. "She is really a good person."
Grant and the boy met in March 201l when the boy added her as a friend while the two of them were playing the video game online. Police said the two talked, instant-messaged and played games daily.
Police said the boy later told them he felt he and Grant had the "same feelings about life in general." He said he learned right away she was 22 and he told her he was 14.
On March 24, 2011, the boy told Grant he wanted to be her boyfriend and she agreed, police said.
But the two didn't actually meet until Dec. 18, 2011, when police said Grant checked into a motel in Danbury.
The following day, police said the boy lied to his parents about visiting a friend and instead walked to the end of his street, where Grant picked him up. They then went back to her motel room where they had sex, police said.
The boy subsequently brought Grant home to meet his parents. He introduced her as a 16-year-old friend. Following dinner with his parents, police said Grant and the boy had sex in his bedroom. The boy's father later drove Grant back to her motel room.
The next day, police said the boy told his parents, who were leaving for work, he was feeling too ill to go to school. Instead, police said he dressed up in a suit and waited for Grant to arrive.
After having sex, Grant and the boy talked of "plans together for later in life," police said.
But the boy's older sister became suspicious of the relationship and, after checking, found out Grant's real age, police said. She then told her parents, who called police.
Police said when they confronted Grant, who at that time was working at a bank in Thomaston, Maine, she admitted having sex with the boy and was expecting to be visited by police.

Method for sequencing nucleic acid molecules
United States Patent Application
|View the Complete Application at the US Patent & Trademark Office
|The present invention is directed to a method of sequencing a target nucleic acid molecule having a plurality of bases. In its principle, the temporal order of base additions during the polymerization reaction is measured on a molecule of nucleic acid, i.e. the activity of a nucleic acid polymerizing enzyme on the template nucleic acid molecule to be sequenced is followed in real time. The sequence is deduced by identifying which base is being incorporated into the growing complementary strand of the target nucleic acid by the catalytic activity of the nucleic acid polymerizing enzyme at each step in the sequence of base additions. A polymerase on the target nucleic acid molecule complex is provided in a position suitable to move along the target nucleic acid molecule and extend the oligonucleotide primer at an active site. A plurality of labelled types of nucleotide analogs are provided proximate to the active site, with each distinguishable type of nucleotide analog being complementary to a different nucleotide in the target nucleic acid sequence. The growing nucleic acid strand is extended by using the polymerase to add a nucleotide analog to the nucleic acid strand at the active site, where the nucleotide analog being added is complementary to the nucleotide of the target nucleic acid at the active site. The nucleotide analog added to the oligonucleotide primer as a result of the polymerizing step is identified. The steps of providing labelled nucleotide analogs, polymerizing the growing nucleic acid strand, and identifying the added nucleotide analog are repeated so that the nucleic acid strand is further extended and the sequence of the target nucleic acid is determined.
