NEW HAVEN, Conn. – For the sixth time in school history, Yale will be playing in the postseason. The Bulldogs host Quinnipiac in the opening round of the CollegeInsider Tournament (CIT) on Wednesday. Tipoff is slated for 7 p.m. It will be the first postseason game for Yale in the John J. Lee Amphitheater.
Yale has been invited to the postseason in three of the last four years. The Bulldogs played in the 2012 CIT, losing to Fairfield in the first round, and were asked to participate in the 2011 College Basketball Invitational (CBI) but had to decline because several players were overseas on pre-arranged educational trips. The Bulldogs went to the NCAA Tournament in 1949, 1957 and 1962 and took part in the 2002 NIT where they played a second round game at the New Haven Coliseum against Tennessee Tech.
Yale (15-13, 9-5 Ivy) was second in the Ivy League, its best finish since 2006-07. The Bulldogs posted a winning overall record for the third time in the last four years and a winning league mark for the fourth straight year.
Yale had two All-Ivy selections. Justin Sears, who leads the team in scoring at 17.1 ppg., and rebounding at 7.2 rpg., was named to the first team, while Javier Duren, who topped the team with 81 assists and 31 three-pointers, earned honorable mention recognition.
James Jones, the Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954 Head Coach of Men's Basketball at Yale, enters the game with 205 victories, all during his time at Yale. Jones is one win away from tying Joe Vancisin as the school's all-time winningest men's basketball coach. Vancisin guided the Bulldogs to 206 wins from 1956 to 1975.
Keep Up On The Boards – Normally, Yale figures to have the edge in rebounding. The Bulldogs have outrebounded their last 11 opponents. Quinnipiac, though, poses a significant challenge. The Bobcats lead the nation with a +11.8 margin and also top the nation in offensive rebounds (16.8 per game).
Guard Play – Without its usual edge in the post, Yale will need strong play from its guards.
Settle In – Neither team has played since Mar. 8. The team that can shake off the rust the quickest will have an edge.
Yale and Quinnipiac are playing for the fifth time, and the Bobcats have won the first four. The last meeting was a 68-62 Quinnipiac victory in 2011 in Hamden. Ike Azotam scored 17 points and grabbed 18 rebounds to lead the Bobcats. The last time the teams played at Lee Amphitheater was in 2009, a 71-64 Quinnipiac victory.
The Bobcats (20-11, 14-6 MAAC) are the nation's top rebounding team with a +11.8 margin. Quinnipiac also averages 16.8 offensive rebounds, which is tops in the nation. Quinnipiac is playing in a national postseason tournament for the fourth time in the last five years. It is the Bobcats' second appearance in the CIT. The Bobcats have reached the 20-win mark in three of the last five years. Three Quinnipiac players were named to the MAAC all-conference team. Ike Azotam earned first team recognition, Ousmane Drame was selected to the second team and Zaid Hearst was named to the third team. Ike Azotam (16.5 ppg., 10.2 rpg.) and Ousmane Drame (13.7 ppg., 10.3 rpg.) both average a double-double.
The sixth annual CIT features a 32-team field made up of non-BCS programs not participating in the NCAA or NIT. All 31 games are played on campus sites. Future round opponents are determined after the results of the previous round. The second round is slated for Mar. 21-22, the quarterfinals are Mar. 25-27, the semifinals are Apr. 1 and the championship game is Apr. 3. Both the semifinals and the championship game will be televised on the CBS Sports Network.

Today: After strong end of second quarter, IPO market cools off with trimmed offerings from Silicon Valley firms CareDX and TubeMogul. Also: Earnings from Google and a host of chip companies.
The Lead: CareDX and TubeMogul settle for less in IPO
Silicon Valley IPOs roared back at the end of the second quarter with strong offerings from the likes of GoPro and Arista Networks, but the momentum didn't continue with the first two offerings in the second half.
Brisbane biotech CareDX priced its debut batch of shares at far less than the suggested price range of $15-to-$17, selling 4 million shares for $10 apiece, and then struggled to command that price on the open market, where shares sold between $9 and $9.99 before closing at $9.05. The pricing was a surprise after CareDX's range came in well above its original stated goal of a $50 million windfall, a target the company failed to hit by raising $40 million even as 5 percent of the shares were purchased by board members and other early investors.
CareDX develops genetic testing equipment for heart transplant patients, leveraging new techniques to gauge the likelihood that a patient's body is rejecting the new organ, bringing down the need for high quantities of drugs that are currently used to stave off the risk of rejection. The company, which was founded in 1998 and has changed its name four times in the intervening years while commanding more than $120 million in venture funds, hopes to develop similar tests for the transplant of other organs.
"We believe that better post-transplant surveillance solutions that provide objective, personalized and actionable data can help clinicians control rejection risk while reducing the risk of side effects," the company said in its registration documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
While biotech has been the hottest sector in the IPO market so far this year, it received bad news earlier this week when the Federal Reserve cautioned that the valuations of such companies, along with social-media firms, could be overvalued.
"Valuation metrics in some sectors do appear substantially stretched — particularly those for smaller firms in the social media and biotechnology industries, despite a notable downturn in equity prices for such firms early in the year," the Fed's biannual report read.
TubeMogul isn't in the biotech or social-media fields, but the video-advertising company still slashed its IPO range, from $11-to-$13 to $7-to-$8 in SEC documents updated Thursday morning. The Emeryville firm seems to be struggling to find open arms on Wall Street just like rival YuMe, a Redwood City company that priced its shares at $9 last year after stating a range of $12-to-$14 and ended trading Thursday at less than $6.
TubeMogul is expected to announce a final price Thursday evening and begin trading on the Nasdaq exchange Friday morning under the symbol TUBE. CareDX also chose to list on the Nasdaq instead of the New York Stock Exchange and is trading under the symbol CDNA.
SV150 market report: Wall Street suffers ahead of Google earnings
Wall Street suffered Thursday as tech stocks were hit hard ahead of a raft of Silicon Valley earnings reports released after the bell, led by Mountain View Web giant Google.
Google blew away revenue expectations with a 22 percent increase from the same quarter a year ago, generating $16 billion in sales, but profits came in slightly below expectations at $3.4 billion, or $4.99 a share. Google also announced the departure of a longtime executive, Chief Business Officer Nikesh Arora, to Softbank; he will be replaced by Omid Kordestani. Google stock bounced back from a 1.7 percent decline to $580.82 in the regular session, with after-hours action pushing share prices back above $590.
Silicon Valley's other Thursday earnings reports showed that not all chipmakers enjoyed the same breakthrough quarter that Intel showed off earlier this week. Advanced Micro Devices, the chief rival to the Santa Clara chipmaker, continued to post losses, revealing a net loss of $36 million, or 5 cents a share, on sales of $1.44 billion, up just slightly from $1.4 billion in the previous quarter. The Sunnyvale company's shares plunged more than 15 percent in after-hours trading following the announcement, trading for less than $4 after closing with a 1.9 percent decline at $4.57. Two other Silicon Valley chipmakers, Fairchild Semiconductor and Cypress Semiconductor, announced earnings before the markets open, but failed to move the needle much in either direction: Cypress fell 0.4 percent to $10.27 while Fairchild gained 0.3 percent to $15.66.
Silicon Valley's two largest tech firms made board moves after trading ended for the day, with Hewlett-Packard naming CEO Meg Whitman chairman after its interim board leader stepped down earlier this week, and Apple brought on BlackRock cofounder Susan Wagner to replace its longest-serving director, Bill Campbell. Apple fell 1.8 percent to $93.09 on the day, and HP declined 1.1 percent to $34.43. SanDisk had the largest plunge Thursday among the SV150, diving 13.6 percent to $93.21 after announcing earnings that were in line with expectations but apparently not enough to justify its record prices. eBay had a stronger performance after revealing its second-quarter results, with the San Jose company's shares gained 0.7 percent to $51.03. Social media rivals Facebook and Twitter looked to e-commerce for a boost, with Twitter acquiring CardSpring for payments infrastructure and Facebook testing the ability to purchase items directly on its platform; Twitter declined 1.5 percent to $36.87 Thursday while Facebook fell 1.9 percent to $66.41.
Up: Zynga, Symantec, eBay, Juniper
Down: SanDisk, Intel, Pandora, Salesforce, Workday, Yelp, Gilead, AMD, Facebook, SolarCity, Apple, SunPower, Yahoo, Google, Twitter
The SV150 index of Silicon Valley's largest tech companies: Down 25.64, or 1.67 percent, to 1,507.03
The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite index: Down 62.52, or 1.41 percent, to 4,363.45
The blue chip Dow Jones industrial average: Down 161.39, or 0.94 percent, to 16,976.81
And the widely watched Standard & Poor's 500 index: Down 23.45, or 1.18 percent, to 1,958.12

First Animated Tattoo by Karl Marc
The intersection of tattooing and technology is fascinating and full of possibilities. We've seen scannable bar code tattoos, augmented reality tattoos, and even a CNC automatic tattoo machine. While these examples have a definite cool factor, they have tended to be less artful. And that's why I was very excited to see this use of tattoo tech that combines a custom tattoo by a respected artist and interactivity (beyond strangers trying to touch and ask its deep meaning).
Tattoo artist Karl Marc of the wonderful Mystery Tattoo Club in Paris tattooed a design incorporating a matrix code that, when scanned, presented an animation of the tattoo. The animated tattoo, which is deemed the first of its kind, is part of Ballantines' Human API project and their "Leave an Impression" promotion.
As you can see in the video above, Ballantines live streamed Karl Marc tattooing the work (on June 16th), and during the four-hour session, the artist discussed his process and also interacted with online viewers who logged into the Human API Facebook Page. You can see the text chat popping up in the video, as many offered suggestions for the work and made profound statements like "Ouch."
Another note on the tech: As the code triggers online content and the URL associated can be changed, Karl's client, Marco, will be able to change the animation whenever he wants (he already has an additional animation on top of the one showed on the video).
The next Human API video will take place on July 14th with a graffiti artist "mixing spray and user interactivity." You can take part in that on their Facebook page as well.
For more on Karl Marc's tattoo work, check his online portfolio.
UPDATE: Some people have brought up hygiene issues in placing the smart phone on the fresh tattoo. Here's Ballantines response: "It's been cut in the edited video, but during the actual session, Karl cleaned and sterilized thoroughly both Marco's chest and the device before triggering the code. [...] The last thing we (and surely Karl) want to do is to promote unprofessional tattooing."

At one time, Los Angeles was Weimar on the Pacific: Numerous German-speaking émigrés put their stamp on the city to which they'd fled.
What with directors such as Billy Wilder and Ernst Lubitsch, writers such as Thomas Mann and Bertolt Brecht, and assorted film composers and actors — many of whom gathered to express their love of German high culture and their hatred of fascism — it seemed at times that the Southland's intellectual life was conducted in German.
Despite the stereotype of the German as introverted and painfully cerebral, the scene was lively: Lavish Westside homes as well as parks, gyms and beer gardens were filled with exiles who'd come to California because their ethnicity or politics had provoked threats or loss of citizenship.
Today, things are different. "There are several areas where many German people live," says Christina Baitzel, who moved to the U.S. a decade ago and now works for Los Angeles Opera. "But I don't think they really connect to each other."
The German presence in L.A. — the exiles in paradise and the more disparate contemporary scene — has a renewed resonance these days, as the city's cultural organizations observe the Ring Festival LA (www.ringfestivalla.com/), which accompanies the opera's rollout of Richard Wagner's "Ring" cycle.
Los Angeles has a few German institutions and some people who follow the nation's music and letters. But it's not a community, says Cornelius Schnauber, a retired USC professor who is an eminent chronicler of German-language culture.
"In general, the Germans have never been a people who want to stick together when in foreign countries," he says. "It's different from Russian people or Asian people. In general, they're more assimilated: It was true before the exile period and true after the exile period."
The Southland's German roots can still be hard to find. On the surface, the Austrian impact may be easier to spot in 21st century L.A., whether the modern architecture of Neutra and Schindler, the post-Cold War politics of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger or the cuisine of Wolfgang Puck.
Despite a visibility that doesn't compare to, say, Russians — whose voices are easy to overhear at classical concerts and operas — Germans have made their mark on Los Angeles and continue to do so today.
Back story: 1930s and '40s
Historian Kevin Starr calls the influx of 200,000 German and Austrian refugees — about 10,000 of whom settled around L.A. — "the most complete migration of artists and intellectuals in European history."
His book "The Dream Endures: California Enters the 1940s," chronicles some of their highs and lows, as they brought a culture of intellectualism, verbal wit, sexual freedom, Freudian theory and in some cases heavy drug and alcohol use to a city still essentially Midwestern Protestant. In 1930s and '40s L.A., a figure like Marlene Dietrich was considered a serious exotic.
These were the days when émigrés gathered at actress and screenwriter Salka Viertel's house in Santa Monica, or writer Lion Feuchtwanger's Spanish-revival mansion in the Palisades, or Lubitsch's witty, German-only soirees. Some, such as Mann, who wrote "Doctor Faustus" and other novels while here, thrived, while others — his son Klaus Mann, a writer who committed suicide in 1949 — did not fare as well.
Still others, such as the austere, puritanical Brecht — "stop paying the water bills," he wrote in his journals, "and everything stops blooming" — did not take to the Southland's natural setting: More sensual figures, such as Thomas Mann and Feuchtwanger, who responded to the ocean, the climate and the foliage, tended to do better. (For all of Brecht's grousing, his years in L.A. saw the completion of some of his most important plays, and " Galileo" opened at the Coronet Theatre in 1947.)
This chapter of cultural history has been well-chronicled. Less well-told is the social life of the ordinary German who moved to the Southland by choice. That's the subject of an online map and self-guided tour put together by the Los Angeles Conservancy as part of the Ring Festival.
"We were looking for a way to broaden it, to augment the story of the exiles," says Adam Rubin, who handles the conservancy's youth outreach. "I doubt Bertolt Brecht had much to do with the people who were going picnicking in the park."
Along with the exile haunts, the conservancy's map includes such places as an athletic club on Washington Boulevard that offered a German restaurant and beer garden, and La Crescenta's Hindenburg Park, run by the German- American League.
The park, with its statue of the Prussian-German soldier and politician who appointed Hitler chancellor, was the scene of easy-going picnics as well as less innocent gatherings led by the German American Bund, a pro-Nazi organization dedicated to polishing Hitler's image in the U.S. and rolling back the New Deal.
Of course, as with anything from prewar L.A., a lot of the map's landmarks are no longer standing. The statue in Hindenburg Park, for instance, was removed and the park taken over by the county; it is now Crescenta Valley Park. In 1956, it became the site of the first Oktoberfest in America.
What's left
One of the most tangible and living remnants of the heyday of exile-era German L.A. is Villa Aurora, the Pacific Palisades mansion once owned by Feuchtwanger and his wife, Marta.
The villa is an 18,000-square-foot Mediterranean with Moorish-style tile, four bedrooms, a garden and more than 10,000 books. Its director, the Munich-born Imogen von Tannenberg, calls it "a lived-in museum" designed to pay homage to the Feuchtwangers and the exile community that gathered there during World War II.
But even here, the German-ness of this villa once inhabited by German intellectuals has its own contradictions. "We're perceived as this outpost of foreign culture," says Von Tannenberg, standing on a balcony that looks out over the Pacific and today smells heavily of nearby eucalyptus trees. "But we're an American nonprofit."
In addition to series of events, many of them with a German theme, the place hosts artists from around the world in a variety of disciplines. In cooperation with the Human Rights Watch, the villa also hosts a writer in exile every year. "So this house is still a place of refuge."
Composer Arnold Schoenberg, Charlie Chaplin, Albert Einstein and Aldous Huxley came to the villa while the Feuchtwangers lived there. Brecht spent time there too, but hated what he saw as the lack of culture and infrastructure on the Westside. Lion Feuchtwanger tried to expose him to the local beauty, but he wasn't interested, Von Tannenberg says. "He said, 'Don't show me that! Show me where the poor are! Show me where the struggle is!' "
Another site is the L.A. branch of the Goethe-Institut, which is dedicated to spreading knowledge of the German language and culture. The institute hosts events around the Southland and at its Wilshire Avenue base. Two recent activities, one aimed at bringing schoolchildren to Wagner's opera, the other a chamber concert, were connected to the Ring Festival.
Fraying bonds
Not all Germans in Los Angeles, even those of an intellectual bent, spend their time attending Wagner operas, watching F.W. Murnau's silent films or haunting bookstore shelves for Heinrich Heine poetry in the original German. Much of the current German community has come here to work in Hollywood and is more closely allied to American cinema than the homeland's own classics.
"I think quite a few Germans are somewhat discontent about their 'German-ness,' " says Sven Kirsten, the Silver Lake-based pop culture chronicler and author of "The Book of Tiki." His countrymen here rarely seek out reminders of the Old World, he says.
"I moved to California to change myself, and I did. It's just like moving away from your parents, but when you go back to visit, all the old buttons are pushed. The German mind always is at work, always over-interpreting situations, always judging others and oneself in relation to others, very self-conscious," he said.
For Americans, German culture has had a hard time of it for different reasons, says Schnauber, whose play about Wagner and Mendelssohn, "Richard and Felix," was performed during the festival. German literature had a strong following in the States until World War I. "There was a big propaganda offensive, started by President Wilson, against Germans. … German culture, in this country, except for music, has never really recovered."
The spirit of German humanism lived on in the émigrés Schnauber knew when he came here in the '60s.
"As a culture, it was destroyed by the Nazis," he says. "But it lived on in Los Angeles — until it passed away. It's important in general to have an ethic of tolerance, which we see in Lessing's play 'Nathan the Wise' or in Goethe's 'Faust.' It's something not bound to a certain time but has value for all societies and all periods."

You may already know that it's important to optimize your LinkedIn profile. But your presence on other platforms may also need optimizing.
So before you start tackling that in-depth Twitter marketing campaign or paying to promote your tweets, make sure you have your bases covered. Here's a checklist for optimizing your Twitter profile:
1. Profile picture. Your profile picture/avatar is going to be the first thing people see. Use a company logo or be creative and use a picture of a person or character. Just make sure that whatever image it is, it represents the company as a whole.
If possible, use a colored background, as this will help your brand stand out in your prospect's feed.
2. Twitter handle. Your Twitter handle is the same as your Twitter URL, so it should be an obvious choice that reinforces your brand identity. If your company name is already taken, you can be creative with abbreviations, but we recommend you stay away from underscores.
Now that you have a Twitter handle, promote it. Incorporate it into all your marketing materials so that your prospects and clients will know where to find you.
3. Company bio. This is your chance to introduce yourself. The challenge is to use only 160 characters. Write a clear, concise bio that describes your brand and products or services. If you have an opportunity to throw in a few keywords, go for it. Twitter also gives you the ability to include live links in your bio, so you can drive traffic to a specific product page or another social profile.
Use URL abbreviations for these links, so you don't waste precious characters.
As you strive to improve your Twitter efforts, make sure your great content is searchable and looks professional. Optimizing your profile will make growing your audience much easier.

How to Use
1. Using a school atlas, locate New Kent County on a state map of Virginia.
2. Using Map 1, locate the New Kent School and the George W. Watkins School. They are approximately 7 to 8 miles apart.
3. Locate the area of Plum Point and the community surrounding Angelview Church, two communities known for being predominantly black in the 1960s. What route would students that lived in the eastern end of New Kent County travel to attend the all-black George W. Watkins School?
4. What school did the black students pass on the east-west route to attend George W. Watkins? How do you think passing this school affected their outlook and their education?
5. In the 1960s, New Kent County's population was 52% white and 48% black. How do you think this may have affected both the white and black citizens' attitude/outlook on school desegregation and the civil rights movement in general?
* The map on this screen has a resolution of 72 dots per inch (dpi), and therefore will print poorly. You can obtain a larger version of Map 1, but be aware that the file may take as much as 50 seconds to load with a 28.8K modem.

Hope College will feature author Eric Burns with a presentation based on his latest book, "Invasion of the Mind Snatchers: Television's Conquest of America in the Fifties," on Thursday, Oct. 28, at 11 a.m. in the Maas Center auditorium.
Hope College will feature author Eric Burns with a presentation based on his latest book, "Invasion of the Mind Snatchers: Television's Conquest of America in the Fifties," on Thursday, Oct. 28, at 11 a.m. in the Maas Center auditorium.
The public is invited. Admission is free.
Burns, a cultural historian and former television journalist, drew on his credentials for his book on how television was first invented, with a chronological history of social events that affected its further development in the 1950s. As television invaded living rooms of millions of anxious American families, actors became unlikely heroes to awestruck viewers, dominating their leisure hours, taking advantage of their innocence, and influencing how consumers spent their extra money. Burns provides an analysis, explaining just how the industry exercised unprecedented power over the average American's thoughts about news events such as the McCarthy hearings, social changes such as civil rights protests, and the roles of women and African Americans. This highly researched book contains a combination of serious topics and humorous anecdotes, plus a bibliography.
Brian Williams, anchor and managing editor of "NBC Nightly News" has said of the book, "Eric Burns, a bona fide TV historian, has pulled off a difficult task - he has brought our early, grainy television history to life in living color." Actor Richard Thomas praised the book, noting, "Eric Burn's book is delightfully entertaining and richly informative. As a lifelong consumer and perpetrator of television programming, I consider it essential reading."
Burns' recent books also include "All the News Unfit to Print: How Things Were and How They Were Reported," "Virtue, Valor and Vanity: The Founding Fathers and the Pursuit of Fame," and "The Smoke of the Gods: A Social History of Tobacco." Among others, he has written for the "Reader's Digest," "Weekly Standard," "Family Circle," "TV Guide" and "the New York Post." Beyond writing, Burns has hosted many shows, including Fox News Watch (a weekly, media review), CNBC's "Talk Live" and A&E's "Arts & Entertainment Review." Burns has also been a freelance writer, playwright and media consultant for National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities.
"Washington Journalism Review" has described Burns as one of the best writers in the history of broadcast journalism. Winner of numerous awards, he most recently received the Eudora Welty prize for his newest play, titled "Mid-Struit" and directed by Michael Guidry. "The Spirits of America: A Social History of Alcohol" was named one of the best academic press books of 2003 by the American Library Association.
The presentation is hosted by the college's department of theatre with support from multiple other departments.
The Maas Center is located at 264 Columbia Ave., on Columbia Avenue at 11th Street.

A Look Inside Emmanuelle Alt's First Vogue Paris Issue — For April 2011
A Look Inside Emmanuelle Alt's First Vogue Paris Issue
>> Although Emmanuelle Alt says her full vision for Vogue Paris won't be felt until the August 2011 issue, the April 2011 issue marks her first as editor-in-chief of the magazine. Already, she's made some changes — expanded beauty coverage, simpler layouts and typography, a bigger commitment to feature articles among them. And she has plenty more in mind: "I want to show in French Vogue more and more a lot of clothes." In fact, of this first issue, she says: "It's simple fashion. You can see the clothes perfectly."
She plans to continue devoting covers largely to models, but will require them to show less skin than they did under Carine Roitfeld's eye. "One boob," she says of this first issue: "Otherwise, you don't recognize it's French Vogue." And instead of Roitfeld's edgier vision, Alt says: "I want the Vogue to become very feminine. Women are very interested in fashion and beauty." She's also recruiting a new team of freelance stylists: "I want to have new people working for the magazine. I also want to push some young stylists: all the girls who have been trained by French Vogue." A look at the outcome — Alt's first issue — in the slideshow.

Hi there,
We completed our Team Blabador 2008 season video. It is a bit lengthy, and it takes some time to upload (especially if you load the better Quicktime version ), but I wanted to share it with all the new buddies I have at PBT. If you do use the Quicktime version, it needs some time to buffer, and it will start when it is ready. Oh, and it needs sound.
Thanks for letting me share!

Moms Champion Traditional Toys Even in a Digital Age
(BPT) – As smartphones and tablets are more frequently finding their way into kids' hands, many parents may wonder about the implications of increased screen time, and question what role traditional toys should play in their children's lives.
While there is no denying the benefits of digital devices and it is becoming commonplace for parents to pass their tablets to Junior, research shows many want to limit the time their kids spend on screens, large and small. Parents also actively encourage their kids to play with toys that may help them reach critical developmental milestones. So how have traditional toys stood the test of time?
The various ways in which children play have remained largely unchanged throughout time. In many cases, technology can help amplify play by helping to introduce characters or tell a compelling story. When Mattel, the world's largest toymaker, asked moms their opinions about toys and technology, it found that even in a digital age, moms continue to place a high value on traditional toys.
"Kids today are digital natives and are immersed in digital experiences," says Dr. Michael Shore, vice president of Global Consumer Insights for Mattel. "However, when you walk into a child's room and see what is visibly present and displayed on the shelves, you won't see an app on the wall as an expression of who the child is, what he or she loves, or as markers of the childhood experience. For that, toys will continue to endure as ideal gifts for children. After all, you can't wrap an app."
However, as experts and media debate whether digital devices will one day replace dolls, cars, trains and action figures, most moms do not think smart digital devices and traditional toys directly compete with one another as a source of kids' entertainment. Rather, each category remains fundamentally different. While 75 percent of kids today play with devices like smartphones and tablets, Mattel's research found the time they spend with these devices actually competes with the time they spend with other screens, such as televisions and computers. In fact, 59 percent of moms felt that smart portable devices will one day replace other electronic devices, not traditional toys.
According to Mattel's findings, moms frequently associate toys with social activities since toys are often used to play with others, whereas digital devices are generally associated with solo play (for example, keeping a child entertained when waiting at the doctor's office or on a long car ride). Moms also credit toys with providing opportunities for active play that allow kids to exercise and burn off energy. Further, moms see toys as a great way to help kids spark their imaginations and flex their creative muscles.
Knowing that the leaders of tomorrow will be those who think differently and solve problems in new ways, imagination is more important than ever before. Dr. Shore offers some tips for using play as a catalyst for fostering imagination and creativity:
Make sure your kids have time to play.
In an increasingly overscheduled world with a variety of things competing for kids' time, it is easy to overlook the importance of dedicating time just for play. Give your child the time and space to play, and watch his or her imagination soar.
Provide a safe place to play and tools for play.
Consider starting a play group in your neighborhood or hosting play dates at your home or local playground. Bring out the toy chest and see what games the kids can create when they play together.
Encourage your kids to play with all that's available – including their imaginations.
Two of the most important tools for play are toys and an imagination. Help your children dream beyond what they see on screen and encourage them to bring those cartoon characters to life using their toys and imaginations.
Get involved and play with your kids.
Don't forget that play is good for grown-ups too. Everyone loves a good old-fashioned tea party or toy car race down the hall. Playing together is one of the most fun and meaningful ways for parents and children to bond and foster creative thinking for both of you.

This is probably a question already discussed here and there.
I'd like to try to gathering here all the information.
Suppose I'm on a machine connected to a network. This network has access to the internet.
I'd like to write a
bash script to detect the maximum information possible in order to
Map the network around me
- Number of devices connected
- Types of services offered by each device
Know how many devices I must run through in order to reach the router to the internet (counting hops)
Latency between each step
Strength of signal if the link between A and B is wireless
Maximum uplink and downlink speed between two devices on the intranet
I don't need the final script, I'd like to get dirty doing this, but I need tips on the right approach. I've got a good knowledge of network theory but really a poor knowledge of the practical side and the best I have come up with is flooding the subnet with pings and trying to reverse engineer the network using it.. rubbish!

Having recently become a deliberative septuagenarian, prolific commentator Epstein (Alexis de Tocqueville: Democracy's Guide, 2006, etc.) gathers another profusion of personal essays.
Most of this varied fare first appeared under the byline Aristides in the American Scholar, the literary quarterly he edited from 1975 to 1997. Epstein practices the craft of the essay quite proficiently in multi-layered pieces that often prompt reflections beyond the subject matter directly at hand. True, his literary musings on favorite authors sometimes draw so heavily on said authors' biographies that they sound a bit like prefaces to the Collected Works. But that's fine by us, as they say in his hometown (Chicago), when he shares his thoughts about favorites like Auden, Valéry, Beerbohm, Karl Shapiro and, of course, philosopher Max Bialystock, the famous producer who supplies the book's title. Proust, Epstein avers, produced a masterwork so good "it shouldn't even be read for the first time." Capote, as a "savvy man" and Keats, as a medical man, are considered anew. Nice as the appreciations may be, the best fun here is in the ad hominem pastings administered to panjandrum know-it-alls like Edmund Wilson, Mortimer Adler and (more contemporaneously) big old Harold Bloom. Epstein also considers such issues as book disposal, poets laureate, pedagogy, the wisdom of his father, movies and what's wrong with the world—"too many people in it just like me," he concludes. As is proper for a talented teacher and essayist, he is wonderfully opinionated. He hates "public intellectuals" and turgid writing. He's a guileless snob, an Anglophile and a bit of a Francophile too, with a trace of Yiddishkeit.
Anyone who quotes Bialystock instead of Derrida is our kind of guy. Who says fun has to be brainless?

What is Acne and Acne Scarring?
Acne is chronic inflammation of the hair follicles and oil glands that occurs after adolescence and manifests as comedones (whiteheads & blackheads), papules, nodules, cysts or papulopustules. Often, but not always, it is followed by scars.
Acne scarring occurs when spots become inflamed or do not heal properly. It also occurs when people pick or cause trauma to the area. Some people are more prone to scarring because of hereditary factors. Advanced Dermatology, P.C. and our Center for Laser and Cosmetic Surgery, offers various treatments for significant reduction of acne scars. These include chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and laser therapy. Fraxel, Erbim, and C02 are some of the lasers we use for resurfacing treatments.
What causes Acne?
The exact cause of acne is unknown, but it is believed that it results from several related factors. One important factor is an increase in hormones called androgens (male sex hormones). These increase in both boys and girls during puberty and cause the sebaceous glands to enlarge and make more sebum. Hormonal changes related to pregnancy or starting or stopping birth control pills can also cause acne.
Another factor is heredity or genetics. Researchers believe that the tendency to develop acne can be inherited from parents. For example, studies have shown that many teenagers with acne have a family history of the disorder. Certain drugs, including androgens and lithium, are known to cause acne. Cosmetics may alter the cells of the follicles and make them stick together, producing a plug promoting acne.
Factors that can cause an acne flare include:
- Changing hormone levels in adolescent teenagers and adult women 2 to 7 days before their menstrual period starts
- Oil from skin products (moisturizers or cosmetics) or grease encountered in the work environment (for example, a kitchen with fry vats)
- Pressure from sports helmets or equipment, backpacks, tight collars, or tight sports uniforms
- Squeezing or picking at blemishes
- Hard scrubbing of the skin
- Stress. (e.g. Less Sleep)
Can infants get Acne?
Yes. In the first few weeks after delivery, many babies, particularly boys, will develop red pimples and whiteheads on the cheeks and nose due to the high levels of male hormones (called androgens) circulating in their bodies. These hormones prompt oil production to the baby's immature oil glands, leading to the growth of bacteria and the development of acne. As the weeks pass, androgen levels decline and infant acne usually goes away. If acne persists or is severe, a doctor can prescribe standard anti-acne drugs for babies, including benzoyl peroxide and possibly even topical or oral antibiotics.
How is Acne treated?
Dermatologists may recommend an OTC or prescription topical medicine for people with mild signs of acne. Topical medicine is applied directly to the acne lesions or to the entire area of affected skin. There are several OTC topical medicines used for mild acne. Each works a little differently. The following are the most common ones:
- Benzoyl peroxide – destroys P. acnes, and may also reduce oil production
- Resorcinol – can help break down blackheads and whiteheads
- Salicylic acid – helps break down blackheads and whiteheads. Also helps cut down the shedding of cells lining the hair follicles
- Sulfur – helps break down blackheads and whiteheads.
Topical OTC medicines are available in many forms, such as gels, lotions, creams, soaps, or pads. In some people, OTC acne medicines may cause side effects such as skin irritation, burning, or redness, which often get better or go away with continued use of the medicine. If you experience severe or prolonged side effects, you should report them to your doctor.
Several types of prescription topical medicines are used to treat acne. They include:
- Antibiotics – help stop or slow the growth of bacteria and reduce inflammation
- Vitamin A derivatives (retinoids) – unplug existing comedones (plural of comedo), allowing other topical medicines, such as antibiotics, to enter the follicles. Some may also help decrease the formation of comedones. These drugs contain an altered form of vitamin A. Some examples are tretinoin (Retin-A), adapalene (Differin), and tazarotene (Tazorac)
- Others – may destroy P. acnes and reduce oil production or help stop or slow the growth of bacteria and reduce inflammation. Some examples are prescription strength Benzoyl peroxide, sodium sulfacetamide/sulfur-containing products, or Azelaic acid (Azelex).
What other treatments are available for Acne?
Dermatologists may use other types of procedures in addition to drug therapy to treat patients with acne. For example, the doctor may remove the patient's comedones during office visits. Sometimes your doctor will inject corticosteroids directly into lesions to help reduce the size and pain of inflamed cysts and nodules.
Early treatment is the best way to prevent acne scars. Once scarring has occurred, the doctor may suggest a medical or surgical procedure to help reduce the scars. A superficial laser may be used to treat irregular scars. Dermabrasion (or microdermabrasion), which is a form of "sanding down" scars, is sometimes used. Another treatment option for deep scars caused by cystic acne is the transfer of fat from another part of the body to the scar. A doctor may also inject a synthetic filling material under the scar to improve its appearance.
Lasers are also shown effective for treating acne and acne scarring. Some of the most common questions regarding Laser treatments for Acne & Acne scarring include:
Does laser treatment work for Acne & Acne Scarring?
Laser treatment for acne works by penetrating the deep layers of the skin without harming its surface. While light therapy reduces the presence of bacteria that cause acne, laser treatments have an effect on the sebaceous glands that produce excess oil. Laser treatment may also reduce the appearance of scarring caused by acne, so it can be used on people who currently have acne or acne scarring.
Does it work on all types of Acne?
Laser treatment is ideal for treating the redness associated with mild to moderate acne.
How many treatments are required?
Results are seen within three to four weeks. Typically, one to two treatments are recommended.
Is the treatment difficult?
No. At your first visit your physician will assess your condition and review previous treatments. Then you will have your first full treatment with re-treatments scheduled three to six weeks apart for the next three to four months. Each treatment will typically last 15 to 20 minutes.
Is the treatment painful?
There is some minor discomfort associated with the treatment. Most patients describe the treatment as a series of rubber band snaps to the skin. Your physician can reduce or eliminate this discomfort by providing you with a topical anesthetic or by cooling the treated area with ice or an air-cooling device.
Will laser treatment make my Acne worse?
Laser treatment is designed to gently target and reduce the redness associated with inflammatory acne. It will not aggravate an existing condition. However, if the underlying causes of your acne condition change, your acne could worsen independent of the laser treatment.

When we listen to albums like 'Arp Navigators', by 20Jazzfunkgreats heroes Food Pyramid & Roy Orb D. MT., there is one archetype that comes to mind, every time.
It is the Warrior on the Edge of Time that Hawkwind photographed for the front-cover of the self-same album. Therein is condensed the vastness of feeling of integration within a cosmic network this music inspires in us.
Today, the Warrior gazes down the cliff, into the chaotic mists buffeted by the winds of time, to see his future and his past, the trajectory of a lineage afflicted by a genetic addiction to wandering, to drowning in the symphonic gradients of the sunset, to splattering the eternal tapestry with blood once in a while, so as to pump prime the selection processes with which the universe renews itself.
Imagine the vector of slicing & hanging out up high with Imperial Eagles of the Assassin's Creed Saga, but replace the Dan Brown effluvia that sadly pollute it, with a more primeval, and truer epic where Kirby, Jodorowski & Frank Herbert, to name a triad, blend into each other like facets in the diamond which is the Central Processing Unit at the heart of the Deus Ex Machina of which the warrior and indeed ourselves, are but ephemeral routines.
One way in which the Warrior processes the overwhelming sensory feedback ascending from the tides of time is like we have done ourselves today, by encoding it into icons of the legends that preceded him, and the sonic familiars that accompanied them in their journey past Blood Meridians of Morricone melancholy, under the rain of shards of constellations shattered by the wail of a Zenta guitar, into a parking lot where a white car waits, and in the trunk of the car a rifle, and a external hard-drive with an upload of Jan Hammer's rampant brain, and Psilocybin-coated bullets, and some names, ours.
The reverie ends with our heads blown, and at peace.
Food Pyramid & Roy Orb D. MT. – Visualizer

Senior All-American Taylor Smith (Mansfield, Ga.) led the Bobcats with a first round 72, followed by two rounds of 73, to finish with a two-over par total of 218, good for fifth overall in the 75-player field. After posting first two rounds of 75, junior Bryan Fox (Roswell, Ga.) carded a final round 76 to finish in 27th, with a 10-over par 226.
Senior All-American Patrick Garrett (Kennesaw, Ga.) finished in 36th after struggling with a final round 82, combined with a 71 and 75 from Monday. Joining him in 36th was junior Victor Monte (Chantilly, Va.) who remained consistent with three rounds of 76. Sophomore Ryan Trocchio (Norcross, Ga.) carded a final round 79 to go along with his Monday scores of 77 and 75, to finish 53rd in his first start of the spring season for the All-American.
No. 2 Barry University brought home the team title, finishing with a six-over par 870, four shots ahead of No. 5 Florida Southern College. The individual champion was Tim Crouch of FSC, who posted rounds of 74, 68 and 68 to finish at six-under par overall.
Georgia College beat seven teams ranked in the GolfStat Top-25, including No. 4 UNA, No. 10 Lynn University, No. 13 University of West Florida, No. 18 Rollins College, No. 19 Georgia Southwestern State University, No. 20 Armstrong and No. 24 Florida Tech.
The Bobcats will be back in action March 18 and 19 as they host their lone tournament of the season, the Bobcat Intercollegiate at the Golf Club at Cuscowilla in Eatonton, Ga.

Canggu, Bali30°C
✨ Recommended destinations
This is an algorithmic recommendation based on @thatuxdude's trips history to find places people they haven't been to yet that other people with similar travels as them also went.
Bangkok has some of the best private hospitals in the world. Which is interesting if you're in Asia a lot and you want medical care better than you can get in your home country. Bumrungrad Hospital in Bangkok is ranked #7 in the world. I did an executive health checkup there and it was great. Prices range from $250 to $750 depending on how many checks you want. You can get blood count, X Ray, ultrasound, hormone check, etc. They also have most other medical disciplines. I also got vaccinations renewed. The hospital is private so it's so much better than the overloaded public healthcare systems of Europe, Canada and UK where everyone tries to avoid helping you, is overworked and angry. In Bangkok they're super nice and helpful and you can make appointments straight with a specialist. Not blocked by a GP like in your home country.
Great place. You can avoid the dropshipper, FBA and MLM webinar course people who have infested the coworkings here for years, by, well, just not visiting the coworking spaces here.
Mostly great weather year round and some of the best food in the world at cheap prices. Probably the best standard of living for the cost in an international city. Good but not excellent public transport. Some questionable reviews being left here by people who possibly never visited,
I like it here better than Canggu. It's more walkable, more cheap warungs, more convenient. You could find all kinds of shop catering to different type of visitor, from cheap to luxurious. Not a party place if you're looking for it, which made it even more perfect. More female than male, great for dating.
I do not recommend London for nomads. It's very hard to find places to work in London. Cafes don't like people with laptops, there won't be any power outlets and you'll get funny stares from staff. That's because London is expensive, and it's a loss for cafes to have you. Flexible coworking is hard to come by and day passes are very expensive. That makes it practically impossible to work properly in London as a nomad.
It's possible to live in Hong Kong on the cheap. You've got to live far out in the New Territories, or on an outlying island. I spent a summer living happily on Lamma Island for ~$500USD/month in rent for one bedroom in a shared flat. Rent is really the only tricky part--everything else is relatively cheap.
Been living in 3 different centrally located airbnb in Berlin (2018), each between 800 and 900€ per month for 40-45 sqm (we're two, so 400-450€ each). Each time a full flat and not a shared airbnb, legal now since some months (though it was always possible to get a full flat before as well). Internet was always between 15 and 50 mbps. I spend 100€ per week on food, including restaurants (pretty cheap here), check for Turkish market on Maybachufer and Turkish stores in Neukölln (I spend less on food here than in Chiang Mai!). Berlin is such an awesome place to live, very multicultural, very tolerant, many different neighborhoods, quite relaxed feeling, many parks, lakes all around. No need to speak German at all. Come over here, probably one one of the best place on earth ;) (written in Sept 2018)
One of the most well known cities, few will be surprised by what they see and experience. Very high cost of living can make it tough for many nomads. A lot of things to see and do but most of that costs money. Can feel overwhelming and oppressively business oriented (ie, full of very serious yuppies and places catering to them), especially in Manhattan south of Harlem. Ton of single people, which is good on paper but means everyone you date will get distracted by another person, or multiple, unless you are extremely exceptional, before you have a chance to meet again, never ends. Weather sucks hard from July to August and January to March/April. It's an okay city if you're a biker and varies a lot. Some areas are quite protected, others have no bike lanes. In general, it can be dangerous if you want to commute by bike, it's not Amsterdam. Friendliness of the people varies a lot. I think income/wealth, where they grew up, where they live within NYC, their job, etc. can often give you an idea of what to expect. Service at stores is usually pretty unhelpful and unfriendly but, again, it varies, even within the same store. Internet is fast for the most part. Great selection of food, just a bit pricey besides some of the cheaper pizza slices. Transportation system is good, no need for a car. However, the subway lines are notorious for having issues during rush hour and are usually jam packed. Also, the stations look decrepit and are way out of date. It's pretty safe. Street scams are more prevalent in tourist areas, pick-pocketing and random phone snatching isn't really anything most people worry about. Can be very noisy depending on where you live. You may wake up to extremely loud construction every morning.

Down 3-0, Avalanche rally to defeat Flamesby Rick Sadowski
DENVER -- Colorado Avalanche coach Joe Sacco apparently had plenty to say during the first intermission Thursday night after watching his team fall into a three-goal hole against the Calgary Flames at Pepsi Center.
Avalanche players took his remarks to heart and rallied for a 5-4 victory with two goals in the second period and three in the third.
"It was time to get back to what makes us a good team," said Matt Duchene, who knocked in the rebound of Jamie McGinn's shot at 10:52 of the third period to break a 4-4 tie.
"We had a great second period. I think after we got those two goals we really believed that we were going to win the game. You could feel it in here. It's a great feeling right now. It's one of the best Avalanche wins in recent memory, that's for sure."
The Avalanche, who moved back to .500 with an 8-8-3 record, rallied from 3-0 and 4-2 down shortly after announcing they had matched the two-year, $10 million offer sheet to restricted free agent Ryan O'Reilly that was tendered by the Flames earlier in the day.
So it turned out to be a difficult night all the way around for the Flames.
"At 3-0, the only explanation I can give you guys is we felt it would be easy," Flames coach Bob Hartley said. "On every goal there were major breakdowns, whether it was bad decisions or lack of effort. We played a great first period and found a way to throw it to the dumpster. I've watched many games from last year and it seems to be the same song. We just stopped playing.
"We had the game 3-zip and we're going back home. We didn't deserve it. They deserved it. They outworked us in the second, they outworked us in the third. At 3-zip we had the game fully in control, so we only have us to blame."
Flames captain Jarome Iginla was nearly at a loss for words. His second goal of the game, which came on a power play at 13:16 of the second period, put his team ahead 4-2.
"We know we are supposed to play the same way, but we don't play the same way when we are up, and that one is as hard as any loss this year," he said. "There is no way that should happen. There is no excuses. It's terrible. It stinks. There is no way we shouldn't win this game."
Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog started the rally when he scored 23 seconds into the third period, skating by defenseman TJ Brodie on his way to the net before sliding the puck past goalie Joey MacDonald.
"It was good hockey in the last two periods," said Landeskog, who added two assists for the first three-point game of his brief NHL career. "It [stunk] coming into the room after the first period, I can tell you that much. It was bitter and we had to respond. Coach Sacco gave us a pretty good speech and we came out fired up in the second. It was embarrassing how we played in the first."
Paul Stastny was credited with the tying goal at 6:34 after Landeskog fired a shot that MacDonald stopped. Stastny was driving to the net at the time and the puck went in off his right skate. The goal was allowed to stand following a video review.
"I wouldn't kick it, but it happened so fast, you never know," Stastny said. "You could be turning your skate and it could look like you're kicking it. I knew it was a big point in the game. It was going to change a lot of the momentum whether it counted or not. Thankfully it counted."
Duchene scored in more conventional fashion to give the Avalanche a 5-4 lead. PA Parenteau set up McGinn for a shot on goal and Duchene banged in the rebound. Four Avalanche goals came from players driving to the net.
"That's what we talk about a lot," Sacco said. "We're trying to simplify things here, put more shots on net on a team that sometimes has a tendency to overpass and tries to look for a better play. That doesn't work in this League. The defending teams are too hard to play against, so put pucks to the net and make sure we're going there for rebounds and second opportunities."
The Avalanche had to kill off back-to-back penalties -- both by defenseman Shane O'Brien -- after taking the lead, and goalie Semyon Varlamov stopped Matt Stajan's open shot from between the circles with 53.8 seconds remaining with MacDonald off the ice for a sixth attacker.
The Flames broke out to a 3-0 lead in the first period on goals by Jay Bouwmeester, Mike Cammalleri and Iginla.
Bouwmeester and Cammalleri scored 33 seconds apart. Bouwmeester was in the slot when he accepted a centering pass from Sven Baertschi and whipped the puck behind Varlamov at 4:28. Cammalleri followed by knocking in the rebound of Lee Stempniak's shot at 5:01. Iginla made it 3-0 with a tap-in from just outside the crease with 53.6 seconds remaining.
The Avalanche drew within 3-2 in the second period when Ryan O'Byrne scored from the right point at 5:11 and David Jones converted Stastny's pass from behind the net at 9:54.
Calgary regained the momentum 38 seconds after Colorado's Patrick Bordeleau went off for charging. Iginla knocked in his own rebound at 13:16 during the ensuing power play for a 4-2 advantage.
"We regrouped," Sacco said. "We knew that we had time to get back into the game. It was just a matter of playing the right way, playing our game, playing to our identity. There was a lot of resiliency from the group, no question. The guys battled hard to get back in that game and they feel pretty good after the win, as well they should."

Those breads are beautiful and they look like they are gratifying too! Nice job!
your breaking to a tee! Well done all the way around. The tick boldly baked crust with the open, soft crumb makes these loaves special. Well done and ...
Happy Baking.
Those look terrific. Great looking crust and crumb. Nice job all around.
Now that's a nice bake!
good this bread looks - just peek at the last picture and see if you can find a better one published on TFL. You won't! This bread is what it is - terrific!
Nice baking
Nice loaves there Wingnut. You got a nice colour on the crust and a crumb that makes me want to grab a slice. I like the variety of flavours you pumped in as well. Rosemary. Yum.
These loaves look great. That red with the perfectly burnt ears. I particularly like the middle loaf in the picture with three loaves. Any other flours that added to that awesome red color?
Very attractive loaves.. Beautiful scoring, crust and crumb and pictures!! Really gets my spirit up to bake when seeing such successful bake. Indeed very satisfying. Made me happy.

I've had some ideas lately for extra buttons to play music, sort & navigate. I've used both v5 and v6, and I don't think these exist (if they do, sorry):
1. A way to sort playlists without adding them to the queue, sorting, then re-saving a playlist
2. In the play queue, there is Select All/Select None; an Invert Selection could be useful for playlist creation
3a. Currently, there are buttons on album thumbnails to Play or Add. I was thinking it could be nice to have extra buttons (or a cascading list) to play/add random songs from that album (so you don't have to leave the page to go to the album). Example, I have a bunch of EDM 'albums' sorted by genre, ranging anywhere from 50 to 500 songs, it would be cool if when I saw them in the Home page, I'd be able to hit a button and add 10 random songs from one of those 'albums' without leaving the current page, then add some from another, etc.
3b. A new setting in the settings page for the threshold on how many songs to add/play from an album when 'Random' is selected
4. I really love the similar/recommended artists feature in version 6, I've been waiting for that for a long time, however I got sort of attached to the Now Playing bar being in the right pane, I always thought it was neat to see what other people were listening to (without having to go to the Broadcast page). So I wonder, would it be possible to maybe:
-have a setting to put the Artist Info where the "Welcome to Madsonic" message usually is, or
-a toggle to switch between Now Playing/Artist Info, or
-split the right pane and have both, making each section scroll-able
5. Ways to better sort/list the Starred Albums/Artists/Songs. IMO, the feature is almost worthless because of how the starred items are listed in chronological order, rather than alphabetical.
6. An options menu for the Statistics. It would be nice to have control over things like: what media folders are included in the Statistics, maybe a song duration limit (songs under 30 seconds aren't included in the most played statistics), etc. The reason I mention this is because I have 200+GB of Video Game OSTs, some may have 50+ 1-2 minute songs, so if you listen to that a few times, it skyrockets to the top of the 'Most Played Albums' and 'Top Played Tracks' in the Statistics and skews the results pretty bad.
Big fan of Madsonic, love the project.

Nebraska Laws Affecting Conserved Funds
See Neb. Rev. Stat. § 30-2410 (West, Westlaw through the Second Reg. Sess. of the 99th Legislature (2006).
As a representative payee, you should be sending the conserved funds of a deceased beneficiary to the county court in which the deceased individual had a permanent residence.
If the deceased individual was not a resident of any county in Nebraska, then the conserved funds should be sent to the county court in which the deceased left any property. The Nebraska Judicial Branch has a website which lists the county courts and the counties which they serve.
The Web site can be found at: www.supremecourt.ne.gov/dc/clerks.
State Laws
The appropriate place to send conserved funds in Nebraska is to the probate division of the county court in which the estate is being probated.
§ 24-517. Jurisdiction.
Each county court shall have the following jurisdiction:
(1)Exclusive original jurisdiction of all matters relating to decedents' estates, including the probate of wills and the construction thereof, except as provided in subsection (c) of section 30-2464 and 30-2486.
See Neb. Rev. Stat. § 24-517 (West, Westlaw through the Second Reg. Sess. of the 99th Legislature (2006)).
In order to determine which county court is probating the estate, the Revised Statutes of Nebraska provide:
§ 30-2410. Venue for first and subsequent estate proceedings; location of property.
(a) Venue for the first informal or formal testacy or appointment proceedings after a decedent's death is:
(1) in the county where the decedent had his domicile at the time of his death; or
(2) if the decedent was not domiciled in this state, in any county where property of the decedent was located at the time of his death.
(b) Venue for all subsequent proceedings within the jurisdiction of the court is in the place where the initial proceeding occurred, unless the initial proceeding has been transferred as provided in section 30-2212 or subsection (c) of this section.

For Mike Cairns, business is all about giving people another way to look at the world.
For Mike Cairns, business is all about giving people another way to look at the world.
Cairns is the owner of Infinite Impact, a Columbus firm that uses remote-controlled drone aircraft to shoot photographs and video.
"You look at pretty much anything on land and it's been photographed or seen from a human vantage point a million times -- or from an airplane," he said. "But there's that middle ground that, it's almost like it's a whole new frontier."
Cairns, a Worthington-area resident, said clients for the business have included developers, local governments and even a Delaware-based professional sports team.
Infinite Impact provides the official "fan cam" for Major League Lacrosse's Ohio Machine during home games at Selby Stadium on the Ohio Wesleyan University campus.
Cairns said the reaction to the drone from the team's ownership and fans has been uniformly positive.
"As soon as we get up in the air, you see all of the little kids start going crazy," he said.
At a recent game, the announcer told the fans to do the wave as they saw the drone fly by them.
"That was a pretty cool thing, to kind of have that one-on-one interaction with thousands of people at one time," he said.
Cairns said he would love to one day contract with other local sports teams, such as the Columbus Crew or Ohio State University Buckeyes, to provide a distinctive fan-cam experience.
Infinite Impact will be at the Olentangy Fourth of July Celebration at Olentangy Orange Middle School filming runners in the Freedom 4 Miler.
"I'll be following them and streaming live, aerial footage down to a massive screen for the crowd to actually watch the people they are there to support in real time," he said last week, adding the event marked his first time filming a race via drone.
Cairns has been doing video production and multimedia work with his brothers, Matt and Tyler, for about 15 years as a side business. In 2008, Cairns founded Impact Brothers LLC, a web design, graphics and multimedia company.
About a year ago, Cairns got a new business idea after viewing videos on YouTube that were recorded using drones.
That idea became Infinite Impact, a spinoff of Impact Brothers, and a new full-time job for Cairns.
"I was like, I don't know any other person in Ohio doing this," he said. "I haven't heard of one single person.
"And so I kind of thought about it and made the decision, like, OK, let's get in this thing and see what we can do with it, because at the minimum, we won't really have any competition."
While Infinite Impact has four drones, the one the firm uses most frequently is the DJI Phantom 2. The device, which costs more than $1,000, features four plastic propellers, GPS technology for navigation and a camera capable of shooting high-definition video.
The unit weighs about 12 pounds and can fly for 12 to 15 minutes before its battery needs to be replaced.
Cairns said initially, he was taking a lot of calls from cities or developers that wanted aerial construction photos. More recently, many customers have requested video packages of events.
"I think the aerial video for runs and mud runs and 5Ks could be a really big segment that people haven't even thought about yet," he said.
Infinite Impact charges $150 per hour to film an event, with a two-hour minimum. Editing and video production costs extra.
Cairns said he is interested in traveling throughout the state and publishing a book featuring photos of Ohio "from a drone's perspective."
Getting involved in the drone business full time has given Cairns a greater appreciation for all central Ohio has to offer, he said.
"I've come to know Columbus 300 percent more intimately than I ever did before because I've had a chance to explore -- to find out the amazing places that are really five minutes away from all of us."
Although many people associate drones with weapons and warfare, Cairns said people are starting to accept the devices as business tools. He said he did not really consider using a term such as quadcopter in place of drone to describe his firm.
"I'd rather take the term drone and give it a positive connotation than try to fight the wave," he said.

Businesses have a varied view of what marketing is for, and how it can be used, and it invariably depends on their financial position, the product or service they are promoting, the mindset of the management, the resources available to them, both personnel and technical, and the general attitude towards marketing and selling tactics.
But it has been noted by researchers that small businesses and sole-trading entrepreneurs are stealing a march over the larger organisations. This is because they are far more flexible in their approach towards marketing practices and how it can affect their businesses.
The other thing to note is that these smaller outfits are far more likely to accept the fact that marketing can and will take a long timespan before any results start to materialise. Impatience and impetuousness may be prevalent in both kinds of businesses, but the larger corporates may have demanding bosses, crippling financial forecasts, unreasonable objectives and impractical processes that overshadow any marketing strategies, however carefully they have been put in place to create optimum results.
It is these smaller businesses that are able to see or realise that marketing is a long-term objective that are able to benefit the most from it. This all depends if they are willing to be consistent with providing content for blogs and newsletters, contributing sociably on social networks, spreading their expertise through social media and offline networking and speaking engagements, maintaining a high visibility on the web through blogs, articles, RSS feeds and constantly responding to what their past, present and prospect clients and contacts are doing.
If your company expects immediate returns, do selling, not marketing. Instant ROI may be obtained through various pushy methods, but can it really be compared to that gained through long-term marketing, principally obtained through relationship building, research into customer understanding and responses, providing what is requested or desired, and filling the niches opened up by the misdemeanours of the larger organisations.
Long term marketing results in long term relationships and proven sustainability from your customers. Even so, once acquired, there is no time to sit on your laurels – the pace must be kept up to maintain this much sort-after and coveted friendship, by providing more benefits to make their lives better, and more relationship-building tactics to keep them from converting to the competition.
Therefore you can see how this cannot be achieved through short-term methods without your prospects turning up their noses because they don't know anything about the company or what it is providing, or losing them immediately afterwards because they haven't acquired enough knowledge about how your business works for you to gain their trust and appreciation. If you haven't bothered to take the time to woo your customers to fall in love with you, how can you expect the relationship to last?
