No audio? Replace the headphone jack!
Before opening your iPod, ensure that the hold switch is in the locked position. The orange bar should be visible, indicating hold is active.
Insert a large iPod opening tool into the seam between the plastic front and metal rear panel of the iPod, near the headphone jack. The tool's edge should point toward the metal rear panel to prevent any accidental scratching of the plastic front.
Run the tool along the top seam toward the upper left corner of the iPod.
You want to push the tool against the top of the iPod case. The top will flex inward just enough so that you can push the edge of the tool down and run it along the seam
Try to start on the right side, not the top, to release the tabs – it worked for me much quicker and easier.
Thank you! I couldn't quite figure out where I was going wrong, and it popped right off when I used the big opener on the left side.
I agree with starting to open from the right side instead of the top. I almost wore down my tools trying to open from the top. When I started on the right side, it went so much quicker and easier.
Push the large iPod opening tool into the upper left corner of the iPod, creating a small gap along the side seam.
With the large iPod opening tool still inserted in the top seam, press a small iPod opening tool into the gap you just created.
Run the iPod opening tool down the side seam, releasing all five tabs.
Run the iPod opening tool around the lower left corner of the iPod and along the bottom seam to free the two retaining tabs near the dock connector.
Run the tool around the lower right corner of the iPod and along the right side seam to free all five retaining tabs.
Open the case like a book with the dock connector at the top, and lay the rear panel next to the front half of the iPod.
Remember to fold the backplate up the correct direction, otherwise you might break this cable.
Use a plastic tool or your fingernails to carefully disconnect the orange headphone jack cable. Be sure to pull straight up on the connector, not the cable itself.
Be more than careful with the headphone jack, because I thought I was until I broke mine (I still don't figure how I did this). Those are hard to find after and if you do, it may cost you something around 20-30$
Yeah, I just did the same. Oops.
Yikes - yes, be SUPER careful - just damaged mine too (snapped some of the soldered connections between ribbon and plug). I only use my iPod with a dock in my car, so hoping I will get away with this.
Remove the 3 silver Philips screws securing the headphone jack to the rear panel.
Slide a spudger beneath the orange headphone jack cable and use it to pry the cable up from the rear panel.
Grasp the headphone jack board and lift it out of the iPod.

text: SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Spansion Inc. (NYSE: CODE), a leading innovator in Flash memory solutions for embedded markets, today announced that Freescale Semiconductor has selected Spansion serial peripheral interface (SPI) Flash memory to provide its new Vybrid automotive and industrial solutions platforms with a simplified, high-bandwidth memory subsystem. Industrial applications, like home energy management systems, and automotive instrument clusters are embracing high-resolution TFT (thin film transistor) displays to elevate the user experience and connect people with important data. Offering over 45% faster bandwidth than competing solutions, Spansion supports up to 80MB/s double data rate (DDR) performance, making it the ideal choice for high levels of interactivity. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20060118/SFW077LOGO) Automotive OEMs are requiring instant-on performance for instrument clusters to significantly improve safety and driving experiences. These new digital displays completely replace the main cluster panel with a display for conventional instrumentation, informatics and increased safety and hazard warning features. Drivers gain better visibility of their surroundings, such as the ability to display warnings of pedestrians in blind spots; assist with parking and provide safety information such as a road hazard warning. Other upcoming safety features will include the potential to display in several modes, such as a Night View option, where the cluster's infrared night vision system scans for pedestrian shapes and highlights them with yellow boxes. "Freescale and Spansion have collaborated on three generations of instrument cluster solutions which is resulting in very high performance, cost efficient systems for our mutual customers," said Luke Smithwick, Freescale's driver information and infotainment operations manager. "With Vybrid automotive solution's support for dual channel quad I/O DDR SPI devices, we can raise read performance in the system up to 160MB/s. This capability allows systems to execute code directly from the serial Flash without the need for DRAM in the system and quickly serve graphics for responsive user interfaces." Spansion FL Serial Flash memory is designed for automotive and industrial applications with a wide temperature range of -40 degrees C to 105 degrees C, high reliability, long-term product availability and support for the highest densities up to 1 Gb today. The industry-leading performance capabilities of the family deliver direct benefits to customers, including 3X faster programming performance to reduce manufacturing costs and 45% faster DDR read speeds for more responsive systems and a better user experience.

Spending a day in Florence in the summer can get to you because it is hot and crowded. Getting away from the crowds is essential I think.
That's why I decided to visit Fiesole and the walled town of Monteriggioni near Siena on different days. Monteriggioni was a surprise past the rolling hills, cypress trees and wine tasting.
Built in the 13th century , the town has a castle preserved that the army used to guard from enemies. No wonder the town is walled.
There is a small piazza with a Romanesque church and a toursim office in the piazza. Of course you can't see any piazza without a Bar. Ristorante Il Posso sits opposite the Bar and is adorable. It is quite famous and I happened to go there for lunch. With a great list of wine options and amazing Tuscan food (their steak is wow) this place should not be missed!

"After receiving outrageous quotes to install our windows from main companies, I was so pleased I contacted Lee on trustatrader. Although Lee could not do the work himself, Andy one of his team, came round the next day to quote. Andy was polite, tidy and above all very hardworking. There's not many trades who would stay late on a Saturday night to get the work finished without a labourer (9 windows and a door fitted). A very cold weekend so we were delighted to be warm that evening. I would highly recommend."

Rebel Dane will make his long-awaited return to racing in the 2014 T.J. Smith Stakes at Royal Randwick on Saturday and trainer Gary Portelli believes that he could not have the talented sprinter any fitter.
Rebel Dane has not been seen at the races since he finished seventh behind Buffering in the Group 1 VRC Sprint Classic (1200m) at Flemington on November 9 last year and Portelli has prepared the California Dane entire specifically for a first-up tilt at the $2.5 million T.J. Smith Stakes.
The four-year-old finished second in a barrier trial over 900 metres at Rosehill Gardens on March 31 and was given a testing gallop at Warwick Farm this morning and Portelli told Sky Racing HQ this morning that his star galloper was primed for his tilt at the Group 1 event on Saturday.
"He had a good searching gallop this morning," Portelli said.
"Basically the whole preparation has gone to plan and every step that we have built him up through he has come through nicely.
"Today was where we needn't a good gallop and we had in the back of our mind that it is going to be a soft track this weekend and you can't have anything up your sleeve.
"In such a good race with such high prizemoney you have to have him spot-on and that is where we are at.
"He worked brilliantly again this morning and Bossy said that he felt enormous on the soft ground.
"We just have to hope that we are up to the task now.
"I don't think that we could get him any fitter without racing now.
"The way he recovered from his gallop this morning showed us that he is ready."
The 2014 T.J. Smith Stakes field and barrier draw was released just after midday and the Group 1 event will feature a capacity field of 18 runners for the first time in history.
Portelli said that the field is one of the strongest he has ever seen assembled for a sprinting event, labeling Lankan Rupee and Buffering as the main threats to Rebel Dane, and believes the only thing that could make it the field tougher would be the inclusion of retired equine superstar Black Caviar.
"It is a very good race and it is probably the best sprint field I've seen put together for a long time," Portelli said.
"It is just lucky that there is no Black Caviar I suppose, but in saying that it is collectively the best field and obviously if she was in we would all be running for second."
Portelli is chasing his first win in the T.J. Smith Stakes after previously missing the placings with Ateates (ninth in 2002 and fourth in 2001) and Knickerbocker Kid (tenth in 2001).

CANADA STOCKS-TSX rises as China package lifts commodities
*Energy, materials boost TSX as oil, metals rise
*China's $586 billion stimulus plan buoys commodities
*Nortel slumps after posts loss, cuts 1,300 jobs
(Adds quote, details)
By Jennifer Kwan
TORONTO, Nov 10 (Reuters) - The Toronto Stock Exchange's main index closed higher on Monday, led by energy and materials issues, as the potential of China's big stimulus package to boost demand for metals and oil lifted commodity prices.
The heavily weighted energy and materials groups rose 2.7 percent and 3.6 percent, respectively, as oil climbed to $62.41 a barrel [ID:nSYD393020], while gold and base metals prices were also higher. For more details, see:[ID:nLA274043]
Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ.TO: Quote) was up 6.4 percent at C$57.51, and Barrick Gold (ABX.TO: Quote) rose 6.4 percent to C$29.95.
"The Chinese government is going to spend over half a trillion dollars on various infrastructure projects in boosting the economy and a lot of that money will be spent on things like energy, steel, and copper and various other commodities," said Levente Mady, broker at MF Global Canada in Vancouver.

My name is Sean Sweet. I have many memories of Beadnell. My Grandparents owned a cottage near the harbour called Sandy Dell and later my parents had a static caravan on the links.
Every summer seemed to be hot and sunny and we always had great adventures, and it always seemed as if we were the first people ever to set foot on the beach, and the first people to discover the long Nanny, and although tea times at home were boring, tea times at the caravan were fantastic - fish and chips from Seahouses.
Although my family no longer have the cottage or the caravan I still return to Beadnell with my children and bore them with stories about the summers I had along that stretch of coast line.
I will always have a place in my heart for that little fishing village.

text:
Wesley Gordon, C, Colorado Hawks: The future Colorado center played well on Thursday. He was rebounding and blocking shots on defense, while making some nice passes on offense as well as working hard for the ball and going straight to the hoop when he got it, where he scored easily. Gordon has to get stronger, learn to always play hard and continue to work on his post moves, but his long arms and soft touch help him right now.
Demetris Morant, C, Team Jennings: Morant continued his strong play on Thursday. He's been playing harder than everyone else on the court but also has been under control, and it's led to a barrage of offensive rebounds and putbacks. Morant's touch around the basket also appears improved and he's grown more confident scoring a little further away from the hoop. He has to keep developing the post moves but Morant's effort has made him stand out in Anahiem.
Marqueze Coleman, SF, California Supreme: Right now Coleman is a perfect mid-major utility man with the opportunity to play that role at a higher level if he becomes better as a shooter and scorer. He rebounds, defends, makes the right pass and can hit the open shot. Coleman plays hard and has a very good basketball IQ. Scoring isn't his first option and his main objective on the court appears to be doing what he can to help his team win.
Cory Calvert, SG, Colorado Hawks: A pure shooter, Calvert specializes at knocking down the catch and shoot three, and on Thursday, as usual, he was hitting threes at a high volume and accuracy rate. He'll likely end up at a mid-major with a need for a gunner at the two-guard spot.
Jordan Loveridge, PF, Utah Pump N'Run: Loveridge is a strong and smart power forward whose scoring can come from his shooting or by slashing to the basket. Despite his strength, defenders at this level have a difficult time matching his quickness and strength, providing him with several easy buckets a game. Loveridge also makes a commitment to rebound the ball and usually does a good job on the defensive end in general.
Christian Wood, PF, SoCal All-Stars: Wood played with a very good effort on Thursday and that hard work combined with long arms and athleticism made him a dominant rebounder on the defensive end. Wood mostly scored with his set three-point shot but also had a couple baskets around the hoop. Wood needs to keep working on his scoring around the hoop but the effort he played with on the defensive end was a great sign.
Torren Jones, PF, California Supreme: Jones has improved physically over the past year and does a good job playing hard. Many of his points came from offensive rebounds and he has to keep working on his post moves. Jones' hands are also a little bit of a concern and that's definitely an area of improvement for him as well. That said, from a physical standpoint, there aren't too many posts out west in 2013 with his combination of size and athleticism, which will definitely garner attention from colleges.
Cullen Neal, PG/SG, Danny Granger Hurricanes: Neal's overall talent and work ethic make him impressive almost every time out. He plays hard on the court and impacts the game in several ways, from his passing to his shooting to his drive game. He needs to keep gaining strength but Neal has one of the best basketball IQ's and skill levels out west in his class and it's going to land him a large number of offers.
Parker Jackson-Cartwright, PG, California Supreme: You'd like to see the 5-foot-7 Jackson-Carwright grow, but he's unbelievably talented as a point guard. His quickness and handles allow him to toy with defenders but he doesn't waste dribbles and usually does a great job knowing his plan of attack when the ball in his hands. Jackson-Cartwright was hitting the open jumper and setting his teammates up for baskets throughout the game.
Shaqquan Aaron, SF, SoCal All-Stars: Aaron's handles and passing were on display on Thursday. He used his quick first step to take a defender off the dribble, drove to the basket, picked up a double team and then hit an open teammate. Aaron has almost everything you're looking for in a young small forward prospect and he really just needs to keep working hard and adding strength.
Joshua Perkins, PG, Colorado Miners: Perkins had a very impressive performance on Thursday night. He can handle the ball but it was his excellent vision that stood out, as he made a handful of terrific passes throughout the game. Perkins wasn't really concentrating on scoring so it was tough to get a feel for that aspect of his game, but the young point guard can no doubt pass.
Dave Rice and an assistant, Syracuse, St. John's, Arizona, San Diego State, California and two assistants from Utah watched Isaac Hamilton, Demetris Morant, Skylar Spencer and Brandon Randolph.
Sean Miller and assistant and a Kansas assistant watched Kaleb Tarczewski's first game. An Arizona assistant and Kansas assistant watched his second game.

Productivity sags amid slowdown
By Louise Egan
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada's labor productivity has fallen for a third straight quarter, the longest decline since 1990, and a track record that analysts said shows businesses are on unsteady footing as the economy flirts with recession.
Productivity, measured as the amount produced by a worker per hour, fell 0.2 percent in the second quarter after declining 0.6 percent in each of the previous two quarters, Statistics Canada said on Wednesday.
That compares dismally with the U.S. record of increased productivity in the first two quarters of this year.
"This matters because sagging productivity is bearish for earnings growth, a negative for overall business competitiveness, and because it further reinforces the point that Canadian businesses are increasingly ill-prepared for a slowdown," said Derek Holt, an economist at Scotia Capital.
Holt said that Canadians should have outperformed their U.S. counterparts on productivity given the strength of the Canadian dollar, which has lowered the cost of importing machinery and equipment from the United States.
The business sector suffered a 0.2 percent decline in real gross domestic product in the second quarter, largely because of flagging exports, but the number of hours worked rose 0.1 percent, Statistics Canada said.
Overall economic growth in Canada came in at a meek 0.3 percent in the second quarter after a contraction of 0.8 percent in the first, narrowly avoiding the popular definition of a recession as two back-to-back quarters of shrinking GDP.

We live in a crowded, fast-paced, media saturated world. Every day people are pulling on our time, vying for our attention. Distractions abound. Yet, in the midst of this chaos we are expected to grow our business, serve our community, make quality decisions, find new insights and forge new paths of success.
How is that possible?
One way is to be intentional in stepping off the treadmill, stepping back from the whirl of activity and finding space to breathe, to dream, to listen to that inner voice, to hear God speak, to get in touch with our feelings, our emotions, our past as well as the possibilities for our future.
Canterbury is dedicated to creating a Sacred Space where this can happen.

For eleven-year-old Gopal and his family, life in their rural Indian village is over: We stay, we starve, his baba has warned. With the darkness of night as cover, they flee to the big city of Mumbai in hopes of finding work and a brighter future. Gopal is eager to help support his struggling family until school starts, so when a stranger approaches him with the promise of a factory job, he jumps at the offer.But Gopal has been deceived. There is no factory, just a small, stuffy sweatshop where he and five other boys are forced to make beaded frames for no money and little food. The boys are forbidden to talk or even to call one another by their real names. In this atmosphere of distrust and isolation, locked in a rundown building in an unknown part of the city, Gopal despairs of ever seeing his family again.But late one night, when Gopal decides to share kahanis, or stories, he realizes that storytelling might be the boys' key to holding on to their sense of self and their hope for any kind of future. If he can make them feel more like brothers than enemies, their lives will be more bearable in the shop—and they might even find a way to escape.

This paper deals with the characterization of the strength of the constituents of carbon fiber reinforced plastic laminate (CFRP), and a prediction of the static compressive strength of open-hole structure of polymer composites. The approach combined with non-linear analysis in macro-level and a linear elastic micromechanical failure analysis in microlevel (non-linear MMF) is proposed to improve the prediction accuracy. A face-centered cubic micromechanics model is constructed to analyze the stresses in fiber and matrix in microlevel. Non-interactive failure criteria are proposed to characterize the strength of fiber and matrix. The non-linear shear behavior of the laminate is studied experimentally, and a novel approach of cubic spline interpolation is used to capture significant non-linear shear behavior of laminate. The user-defined material subroutine UMAT for the non-linear share behavior is developed and combined in the mechanics analysis in the macro-level using the Abaqus Python codes. The failure mechanism and static strength of open-hole compressive (OHC) structure of polymer composites is studied based on non-linear MMF. The UTS50/E51 CFRP is used to demonstrate the application of theory of non-linear MMF.

Brazil lawmakers pass pension spending hike in blow to Rousseff
BRASILIA, June 24 (Reuters) - Brazil's lower house of Congress on Wednesday approved a measure that would raise pension expenditures in coming years, in another surprise defeat for President Dilma Rousseff who is struggling to shore up the government's finances.
In a tight vote, lawmakers passed an amendment to readjust pensions annually with a formula currently used to raise the minimum wage, likely lifting already-high social security outlays. The measure still has to clear the Senate.
Earlier on Tuesday, lawmakers approved a decree to maintain that minimum wage readjustment formula until 2019. Under that formula the minimum wage is raised by the prior-year inflation plus the level of gross domestic product from two years back.
Pension benefits are adjusted every year based on inflation.
The government had opposed using that scheme for pensions, saying it would cost state coffers an extra 2 billion reais ($646.6 million) for every one percentage point increase in pensions.
The presidential palace and social security ministry did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
"This a bill that the government cannot pay," said Mansueto Almedia, a Brasilia-based public accounts specialist. "This raises the risk of our rating being downgraded."
Almeida said the government could be forced to further hike taxes and raise its indebtedness to pay for the extra outlays.
Rousseff has already raised taxes and cut spending with pension and other social benefits to rebalance the public accounts and avoid losing Brazil's coveted investment-grade rating. Continuación...

Margo and Denny were married on July 11, 2015 at the beautiful Omni Bedford Springs Resort. One of the requests that they had for us, was to create a timelapse based slideshow for them. Here is there wedding story.
Tag Archives: Pittsburgh Wedding Photographer
Summer has started (unofficially)
Summer in Pittsburgh is a crazy time for photographers. With nearly every weekend booked with a wedding or a shoot between now and October, a few open weekends are time best spent with family and friends, fishing, brewing, biking, and cooking.
We started the weekend in Pittsburgh, and then headed up to the family farm in the Laurel Highlands, for some fly fishing, and cooking out.
Then ended back in Oakmont on Monday so that I could cover a few Memorial Day Parades for the Valley News Dispatch (CLICK TO SEE THE PHOTOS AND READ THE ARTICLE)
I hope you had a wonderful long weekend, and are ready for the adventures ahead.
Adam and Adrienne are Married-Antiochian Village Wedding
Ive known Adam for a large portion of my life. While we weren't great friends, we skateboarded and hung out in our younger years, and had mutual friends that caused our paths to cross every so often. When Adam and his fiance' came to to us for their wedding photography needs, I was excited to work with an old friend. In the process I got to know Adam better, and Adrienne became a new friend.
You can see their engagement session Here.
Their wedding day was beautiful. We started with Adrienne and her girls getting ready at her childhood home, before heading to St Michael's Orthodox Church for the ceremony. After a beautiful ceremony, we headed to Antiochian Village for the wedding reception. The room looked incredible. Adrienne pulled the details together beautifully.
One of the things I love about weddings is that its friends and family coming together to celebrate. When everyone is having a good time, it really shows.
Enjoy the photos.
Adam and Adrienne-Early Morning Coffee Session-Pittsburgh Wedding Photographer
It was a late night, and a long weekend. Sleep was cut short by the sound of my alarm. Normally this is where the hand snakes out, hits snooze, and nudges Kelly. Its my way of sleeping and trying to get her up for work. Ava our lab, jumps onto the bed, and kisses Kelly while whining for me to take her out. This Monday morning, it was so early that even Ava wanted to stay in bed. I took a cold shower to wake up, and made my way outside. I was heading into Regent Square for an engagement session that by most standards was taking place way to early.
Leaving early means I missed all the traffic. With time to kill, I headed to Square Cafe, ordered 3 cappuccino's and enjoyed the realization that mornings are beautiful. Most people hate mornings because it signifies another day at work. For me, its when I take care of the dog, then grind some coffee as the water boils. Its a morning ritual. Wake up. Nudge Kelly. Turn on the shower. Take care of Ava. Make Coffee. By the time I push the plunger on the French Press, Kelly is getting ready for work. Im watching the news.
This morning was different. No Ava. No waking Kelly. No time for coffee.
The sun was low in the sky when I pulled up to Adam and Adrienne's new home. We had shot an engagement session in December, and a miserable winter mist had covered Pittsburgh. At one point, I had to put my camera under my jacket because mist had turned to a freezing rain. They were troopers and we kept shooting. Finishing inside for a few more photos while they talked and enjoyed a cocktail. On this Monday, it was perfect. Their neighborhood was quietly waking up, as I handed them their coffee. We headed onto the porch to shoot. All the images were shot within a block of their home. Great light, and love are all that are required for great photos. I can supply the light in the event of bad weather. The rest is up to you.
Enjoy the photos.

US STOCKS-Wall St set to rise as earnings beat low expectations
* Bank of America profit rises as costs fall
* Delta profit up helped by cheap fuel
* Netflix to report after the bell
* Futures up: Dow 57 pts, S&P 5.5 pts, Nasdaq 10 pts (Adds details, comments, updates prices)
By Tanya Agrawal
April 15 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks were set to advance at the open on Wednesday as profits beat lowered Wall Street expectations and as investors brace for the impact of a strong dollar on results.
Bank of America's, shares were down 0.5 percent at $15.74. The No. 2 U.S. bank by assets posted a first-quarter profit, narrowly beating analysts' estimates, as legal costs fell steeply and the bank earned more from mortgage lending and investment and brokerage services.
On Tuesday, both JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo reported better-than-expected results. Citigroup and Goldman Sachs are scheduled to post results on Thursday.
Intel, which reported results after the bell on Tuesday, was up 3.1 percent at $32.48 in premarket trading. The chipmaker forecast revenue broadly in line with Wall Street's expectations and signaled a hefty cut in capital expenditures this year. Continuación...

by Richard Dawkins Allen Lane pounds 20
If Richard Dawkins ever gave up science writing - which heaven forfend - he could have a terrific career as an army drill instructor. I have in mind, in particular, the foul-mouthed sergeant of Marines in Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket who ends up being murdered by Vincent d'Onofrio's bumbling conscript, driven to insanity by his vicious brand of discipline.
As far as I know, no one has tried to murder Richard Dawkins yet; but reading his description of life propelled by the competition of "selfish genes" has left people convinced, like the d'Onofrio character, that they are living in a "world of shit". At the start of this book, he recounts some reactions to his earlier work: "A foreign publisher of my first book confessed that he could not sleep for three nights after reading it, so troubled was he by what he saw as its cold, bleak message ... A teacher from a distant country wrote to me reproachfully that a pupil had come to him in tears after reading the same book, because it had persuaded her that life was empty and purposeless."
This book is Dawkins's riposte to what he calls the "complainers and naysayers" - not just the ones who miss the positive aspects of his own work, but all the whingers who complain that science is analysing away everything of charm and beauty in the world. The title comes from Keats's "Lamia": "Do not all Charms fly / at the mere touch of cold philosophy? ... Philosophy will clip an Angel's wings, / Conquer all mysteries by rule and line, / Empty the haunted air, and gnomed mine - / Unweave a rainbow ... "
Dawkins's claim is, on the contrary, that "The feeling of awed wonder that science can give us is one of the highest experiences of which the human psyche is capable. It is a deep aesthetic passion to rank with the finest that music and poetry can deliver." More than this, he thinks that science could and should be a source of inspiration, not despair, for poets.
This is a powerful and optimistic message; and it is hard to think of anyone worse equipped to argue it than Dawkins. He has no interest in persuading, coaxing, honeying the reader along; he trudges through the argument by assertion, dismissal, contempt and ridicule. The aspect of the book that has attracted most attention so far is his attack on Stephen Jay Gould, whose central ideas on evolutionary thought Dawkins labels "bad poetic science". In fact, as Dawkins makes clear, there is nothing very new about slinging mud at Gould: fellow evolutionary biologists (including Simon Conway Morris, the hero of Gould's most influential book Wonderful Life) have for some time treated him with suspicion, even derision. Dawkins makes plain some of the muzziness in Gould's thinking; but his scornful tone (wrapped up in a flimsy disclaimer: "I am anxious that such critical concentration upon one individual shall not be taken as personally rancorous.") makes me more, not less, willing to see Gould's side of the argument. As does Dawkins's readiness to hold Gould to account for the views of his readers - or does he really want us to blame him for the despair of schoolgirls?
But let's leave aside bad poetic science: the one crime of which Dawkins is undoubtedly guilty is bad scientific poetry. This is evident in his attempts to evoke a sense of awe and wonder - at one point he cites Isaac Asimov's illustration of the size and emptiness of the universe: "It is as if all the matter of the universe were a single grain of sand, set in the middle of an empty room 20 miles long, 20 miles wide and 20 miles high. Yet, at the same time, it is as if that single grain of sand were pulverised into a thousand million million million fragments ..." Dawkins adds: "These are some of the sobering facts about the universe, and you can see that they are beautiful." Well, no, I can see that they are big and scary. He speaks of a sense of wonder, but reduces it to one great "Gorblimey, look at the size of that!" - or, when he moves on to the complexity of the biological world, "Ain't nature strange?" Gould, with all his faults, does this sort of thing far, far better.
It gets worse when Dawkins ventures into criticism, and takes poets to task for their unscientific attitude. He notes Lawrence, on the humming-bird ("I believe there were no flowers then, / In the world where the humming-bird flashed ahead of creation"). While berating him for inaccuracy he adds, encouragingly, that he "lacked only a couple of tutorials in evolution and taxonomy to bring his poem within the pale of accuracy, and it would be no less arresting and thought-provoking as a poem." Actually, it would cease to exist as a poem. In the most absurd passage, Dawkins explains why a nightingale's song might have a physiological effect analogous to the effects of a drug - "as though of hemlock I had drunk, / Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains". He concludes by asking "Should we feel indignant on Keats's behalf at such a comparison?", and answers: "I do not believe that Keats himself would have done so." What does he think that bit about unweaving the rainbow was all about, then?
The thing is, Dawkins's basic point is, as far as I am concerned, absolutely, uncontroversially right: science does not kill wonder. Most of us know that rainbows are created by refraction of sunlight through water-droplets, and most of us still feel our hearts leap up, a la Wordsworth, when we behold one in the sky. Likewise, when my 18-month-old daughter waddles into the room with a smile lighting up her chubby face and the sunlight glinting on her fringe of golden curls - this is nauseating, I know, but bear with me - the fact that I am in the middle of Dawkins's account of the development of eukaryotic cells (the ones we are made of) by mitochondrial invasion of bacteria doesn't make me recoil in horror; if anything, it adds to my sense of life's miracle.
This book, though, will persuade no one. But then, Dawkins doesn't care about persuasion; he only cares about being right for its own sake: "'Beauty is truth, truth Beauty,' - that is all / Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know." Perhaps Dawkins's view of things is nearer to Keats's than he would like to admit.

UPDATE 1-Colombia 3rd-qtr GDP up 3.2 pct, leaves room for rate hike
(Adds details on sectors, inflation)
BOGOTA Dec 10 (Reuters) - Colombia's economy grew 3.2 percent in the third quarter from the same quarter a year ago, the government said on Thursday, a better-than-expected figure that may prompt the central bank to raise its benchmark interest rate to counteract inflationary pressures.
The growth figure came in slightly above the 2.9 percent growth forecast by the central bank, and likely leaves room for another hike in borrowing costs from the current 5.50 percent.
The economy expanded 1.2 percent from the second quarter and grew 3 percent in the accumulated nine months from January.
Latin America's fourth-largest economy has been hit by a fall in global oil prices and is struggling with an increase in inflation.
Crude oil is Colombia's biggest export and leading source of foreign currency.
Finance Minister Mauricio Cardenas has said he expects full-year gross domestic product to increase by 3.3 percent, buoyed by slightly stronger growth in the second half. The central bank is slightly less optimistic, with a full-year expansion estimate of 3 percent.
Twelve-month inflation reached 6.39 percent in November. The measure has been above the high end of the central bank's 2 percent to 4 percent target range since February due to a precipitous fall in the peso currency in the past year and rising food prices as the El Niño weather phenomenon disrupts agriculture.
The seven-member central bank board has come under pressure to alleviate the inflationary pressure on consumer prices, hiking the rate a full percentage-point over the past three months. Analysts expect another quarter-point hike next week. Continuación...

Kingston, June 12: Steven Smith's dream run in his Test career continued at the Sabina Park here on Thursday as he slammed an unbeaten 135, his fifth ton in six Tests, in the second against West Indies.
It was Smith's ninth hundred in 27 Tests. The 26-year-old, who came out to bat in the very first over after Australia lost opener David Warner with no runs on the board, faced 278 balls during his day-long stay in the middle.
He produced 118 runs with captain Michale Clarke (47), 76 with Adam Voges (37), the hero of the first Test and an unbeaten 48 with Shane Watson (20 not out) as Australia finished the day at 258 for the loss of 4 wickets.
Earlier, Caribbean captain Denesh Ramdin won the toss and invited the visitors to bat. The West Indies also had a hero in their opening bowle Jerome Taylor, who finished the day with impressive figures of 3 for 18 in 15 overs.
He dismissed both Australian openers besides picking up Voges. He did not concede any run in six overs before lunch. Clarke was dismissed by Jason Holder, the only other bowler to take a wicket in the match. Holder was, however, hit by a groin problem in the second session.

Making The Right Choice Among Chicken Coop Designs
Four Perfect Chicken Coop Designs
Anyone who wants to build a perfect chicken coop can find a vast array of chicken coop designs online. The only question is knowing what kind to build and which ones to avoid. It will help you to know that many of the available plans are not well thought out designs, and they can end up costing you a lot of money. The following four suggestions will help you to avoid wasting time and money on the wrong plans.
1. Easy to Clean – Be sure the design you want to build will not be hard to clean. Many designers have not taken that factor into consideration. Any blueprint for chicken coop designs should portray floors that slope downward from back to front. This ensures that the water will run off easily when you hose the coop floors, so they will be clean and dry in a short time and the chickens will not stand in water.
2. Proper Ventilation – The proper flow of air is essential to all plans. If the air is stagnant it will affect the health of your chickens and cause the coop to have a bad odor. Check the design to see that the door is made with some type of wire mesh and that it has screened windows you can easily slide open to ventilate your coop.
3. Adequate Lighting – All chicken coop designs should include adequate lighting. Hanging lights high, close to the ceiling, will provide light for your chickens and a bit of warmth for them as well.
4. Use Quality Materials – To protect your chickens from weather events and predators, you will need good, sturdy materials for your coop. Make sure the wire mesh for doors and windows is strong and thick. Use strong boards for the rest of the coop to give the chickens proper shelter and keep natural enemies from chewing through flimsy material.
When you are considering which choices to make among the various chicken coop designs, think about the above four tips and suggestions. There are other considerations, but these ideas will help you to get started. If you do a bit of research and give some thought to factors such as how many chickens you will house and the location of your coop, you will be able to make a good, informed decision about which design you want to use that will be best for your purposes.

The blocks FUD ============== I'd like to remind once again that the blocks work doesn't destabilize the traditional use of Cocoon the slightest, see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=114073731515724&w=2. It just cannot affect that as there are no dependencies from the "traditional" parts to the blocks fw whatsoever. Concerning the OSGi stuff it is not even part of the build yet. So the idea that the block work should hinder anyone to work as usual is just plain wrong. M10N ==== What hinder people to work as usual is that the M10N isn't finished. Now it isn't that hard to use Cocoon anyway as I described in the reference above. But of course it would be nicer to be able to use Cocoon with some blocks OOTB. If you don't want to take part in working on the blocks fw and deployer and is impatient, it wouldn't be that hard to write a plugin or an Ant task called from Maven that does the file copying that is described in the reference above. BTW, I'm quite surprised that you want to go back to the messy Ant build from 2.1.x after having argued for building Cocoon with Maven for years. Have you lost your faith in Maven? Springification =============== Talking about destabilizing, a couple of weeks ago the trunk was usable after the file copying referred to above. Actually it was so stable that I developed a small customer application with it without any problems. And AFAIU Reinhard have developed a large application in it. This is not the possible anymore, after the Springification. I tried to start a freshly checked out trunk together with the ajax, form and template block after having copied the configuration files and samples to cocoon-webapp as described above. The start page worked, but all access to sub sitemaps gave null pointer exceptions, where the TreeBuilder configuration can't be loaded. IIRC there where other things that was reported that didn't work a couple of weeks ago as well. I suggest that the container should be reasonably stable before even thinking about doing any big moves. --- o0o --- Not surprisingly I'm -1 on your points 2 and 3. If you want to continue in that direction which IMO represents a huge step back. I insist on that you prove that it work and that you actually have the persistence to carry it through, on a copy of the trunk in the whiteboard. After that you need to cast a vote about making that the new trunk. Also it should be much easier to update the Ant scripts than changing the directory structure. Anyway, why you would like to make such a huge effort in such an backward pointing direction, instead of helping to finish the blocks work or at least the M10N, is just beyond my imagination. /Daniel Carsten Ziegeler skrev: > Ok, here is a simple plan to continue. > > Please note, that the current trunk has several new things: a new core > which can be seen as a follow-up to 2.1.x, the blocks stuff and the > maven build.

text: ExxonMobil affiliate honored for healthcare projects ExxonMobil Kazakhstan Inc. honored for its ongoing commitment to healthcare in the country. In 2014, the American Chamber of Commerce recognized ExxonMobil Kazakhstan Inc. (EMKI) with the "best community service" award for its ongoing healthcare projects in Kazakhstan. The projects were identified in close partnership with the healthcare departments of the Atyrau and Mangistau regions. The projects address critical issues such as infant mortality and the shortage of life-saving equipment and medical specialists in rural public healthcare institutions. Training healthcare professionals The Atyrau region of Kazakhstan lacks sufficient numbers of general practitioners, pediatricians and other medical specialists. EMKI sponsors tuition for medical students studying these specialties who commit to work in Atyrau public healthcare institutions for at least three years after graduation. EMKI has sponsored 39 students since 2011, and the program is expected to continue until the gap is covered. Photo — A physician trains healthcare personnel in neonatal care. Combating infant mortality also remains a priority for the Kazakhstan healthcare sector. To address this issue, EMKI supports training of personnel in the latest obstetrician/gynecological and neonatal practices. In 2014, the project expanded to the neighboring Mangistau region. Eight sessions have been held in the regions since 2011, with more than 200 personnel receiving training in critical skills. The Atyrau Regional Healthcare Department reported a 44% decrease in the number of neonatal deaths since the commencement of the trainings. Supplying life-saving equipment In addition to supporting medical education, EMKI helped both regional healthcare departments purchase equipment needed to improve the survival rate of premature newborns. EMKI also purchased 11 ambulances for rural medical facilities and a blood-purifier for the largest regional public hospital in Atyrau. The ambulances make medical service more available for remote populations of the region and serve areas spread over hundreds of square kilometers. Photo — EMKI purchased equipment that helps reduce mortality of premature newborns. EMKI also sponsored computerization of the ambulance dispatch workflow process, from accepting calls at ambulance stations to recording the medical services provided. These enhancements will improve the efficiency of the local ambulance control system and reduce arrival times, which are currently twice the national average. Combatting infant morbidity and mortality rates is a priority for the country's healthcare sector. In spite of allocated state funding, the Atyrau region still lacks equipment and highly skilled personnel. We are pleased to work in collaboration with ExxonMobil in addressing both challenges. We are confident that ExxonMobil's sponsorship will have a long-lasting and far-reaching effect on the future of many families in Atyrau, the region and the country as a whole. Mr. Mendykhan Utepkaliev, Head of the Atyrau Regional Healthcare Department

#OettiGate and #OettingAir: from free flight into free fall
This time, it only took 4.5 hours to claim he did nothing wrong.
Just two weeks after global outrage over his racist, sexist and homophobic slur, German EU commissioner Oettinger is in the middle of new media storm for accepting a free trip on a private jet with an unregistered lobbyist nicknamed "Mr Russia".

While Twitter is running with the tag #OettiGate (which also refers to some of his many other gaffes), the current affair has picked up its own hashtag: #OettingAir.
Being commissioner for digital matters is no guarantee for digital savvy.
Mr Oettinger prides himself in being the last person to read news in a newspaper, not on a smartphone. And he – or, more likely, his social media person – bluntly shared a German article, quoting its headline; "Allegations of racism? That's just who he is, our Oetti".
So far, the OettingAir affair has not fared any better.
Mr Oettinger's account was keen to retweet reports about a Hungarian government official calling the affair "petty revenge" over a nuclear power plant – but this only shows his failure to acknowledge the real issue: ethics and transparency.
Unfortunately even the Commission's spokesperson either misinterprets the Commission's own ethics and transparency rules ("It's not a gift, nor a meeting"), or he pretends not to understand them. I don't know which is worse.
The legendary @Berlaymonster (no, not Martin Selmayr) commented: This is not a meeting.
While spokesperson parody @MinionAndreva quipped:
On a lighter note, Mr Oettinger's reply to EUobserver about accepting a free private flight from "Mr Russia" resulted in this Twitter gem.
But even though Twitter can make us smile, ethics and transparency of public institutions are a serious matter, especially in EU's current stormy climate.
Parody @GOettinger shows how Mr Oettinger's free flight seems to have transformed into free fall – not just of his reputation, but also of the credibility of the European Commission, and citizen's trust in the European Union.
A "last chance" commission cannot afford a liability like Mr Oettinger.
Stop feeding ammunition to eurosceptics.

INGLEWOOD -- Charles Lockwood might not be the most well-known post player the Southland has to offer. This time next year, however, things could be drastically different.
The 6-foot-9 junior from Inglewood showed glimpses of his potential during Tuesday night's Southern Section playoff game against visiting Thousand Oaks. His well-rounded effort, in fact, proved to be one of the differences in the Sentinels' 65-36 Division 2AA semifinal victory.
"Charles has a lot to offer, what you're seeing now is a player who is about to take the next step, a big step,'' Inglewood coach Pat Roy said. "He's heading in the right direction.''
Lockwood has been largely, although not solely responsible for the success this season at Inglewood (21-10), which advances to this weekend's finals against Simi Valley Royal.
Thousand Oaks (21-9) had trouble containing Lockwood down in the paint early on. His back-to-back baskets sparked a seven-point lead at the end of the first quarter. A pair of buckets late in the second quarter helped Inglewood take a 34-22 advantage at the halftime break.
With a comfortable lead, Lockwood got to work on the defensive end in the second half. He forced the Lancers to take difficult shots, they made one field goal and three free throws over an eight-minute stretch. As a result, the Sentinels started the fourth quarter up, 47-27.
Despite drawing double-and-triple teams for a majority of the game, Lockwood managed to finish with eight points, 13 rebounds and three blocks. With the game's final outcome no longer in doubt, he made his way to the bench for good with less than three minutes left.
"I'm not worried about the hype, I just want to help my team win,'' Lockwood said. "If I worry about taking care of my business on the court, everything will be good off the court.''
Make no mistake, Lockwood had help along the way. Kristopher Randall scored 17 points, Randy Onwuasor added 16 points and Nicholas Smiley finished with 15.
La Verne Lutheran's Grant Jerrett, North Hollywood Harvard-Westlake's Zena Edosomwan, Woodland Hills Taft's Anthony January and Gardena Serra's Daddy Ugbede are considered as the cream of the crop when it comes to talented big men from the greater Los Angeles area.
Each individual in the aforementioned group is a senior, mind you. And based on his efforts thus far, Lockwood appears poised to step to the forefront in the near future.

Pocket Guide: Chicago
"The Windy City"
The channelling of strong gusts between Chicago's skyscrapers may make it seem like it's windier here than anywhere else in the US, but there's another reason why Chicago is nicknamed the Windy City. Chicagoans are crazy about sport, from the Chicago Bears (football) to the Blackhawks (hockey) and the Bulls (basketball). Nearby Cincinnati is equally competitive and the term Windy City was probably first used by Cincinnati newspapers covering the rivalry between the two cities.
Reaching for the Sky
Chicago is known for its architecture, not at all surprising when you consider that 10 of the 50 tallest buildings in the world are located here. The Illinois capital has been at the forefront of progressive architecture and tall buildings since the late 19th century when large parts of the city were rebuilt after the Great Fire of 1871. While two of the most prominent buildings, the Sears Tower and the Aon Centre, date back to the 1970s, the boom continues. Donald Trump's luxury apartment complex was completed recently and the 2000-foot Chicago Spire is scheduled to be completed in 2012.
It's not sheer height alone that makes the city's architectural face so interesting; some of America's greatest architects have left their mark on Chicago, including Solon S. Beman, Walter Burley Griffin, and perhaps the greatest of all, Frank Lloyd Wright. A Chicago Card gives you admission to the city's best-known skyscrapers and the Frank Lloyd Wright Preservation Society, and includes architectural walking tours.
Chicago and the Arts
One of the best-known American paintings, Edward Hopper's Nighthawks, is exhibited in the Art Institute of Chicago. Next to Hopper, the museum houses an impressive collection of impressionist, post-impressionist, and American paintings. Also worth a visit is the Museum of Contemporary Art, which focuses on visual art from 1945 to the present day with emphasis on surrealism, minimalism, conceptual photography, and works by Chicago-based artists.
Chicago is serious about culture and you'll find museums dedicated to everything from Swedish-American life to Science and Industry. A definite must-see for young and old is the Field Museum - home to "Sue", the world's largest and most famous Tyrannosaurus Rex. To get a comprehensive overview of what the city has to offer, opt for a half-day sightseeing tour, which includes museum admission as well as a trip up Hancock Tower to see the city from above. However much time you spend exploring during the day, make sure you keep some time aside for a night out in Chicago. It's not called the home of the blues for nothing, and venues like the Chicago Blues Bar on North Halsted pay tribute to that seven nights a week.

Pouya calls upon LA's Chris Simmons & HBK Gang's Chito Floriano for the visuals of "Straight Up", a track that was produced by Jahka. This collaborative effort is quite monumental, considering the impressive resume that Chris Simmons has with video direction (including IAMSU!, Problem, Young L, Joey Fatts, Freddie Gibbs, etc). As many of you may also be aware, Pouya's upcoming project STUNNA is scheduled to drop on March 5th. Considering the amount of eyes that are now on Pouya and his camp, we can surely expect a plethora of surprises with this next tape.

Travel Accessories: What to Bring
While in Transit
While you're on the road, these accessories often come in handy.
- A daypack can be either a small backpack, shoulder bag, waist pack or organizer. It can be small enough to hold just your money and passport or large enough for a camera, water bottle, book and jacket.
- A security pouch/wallet is designed to be worn under your clothes and is the safest way to carry your money and passport.
- Extra insoles for your shoes or boots provide additional support and cushioning, nice when you spend a lot of time on your feet.
- A water bottle is good to have if you're traveling in an area with safe drinking water (rather than buy expensive bottled water).
At Night
Just in Case
For Your Electronics
Other countries provide electricity of different voltages through differently shaped electrical sockets. So if you'll be traveling with electrical appliances or your computer, these accessories are a must.
- Virtually all travelers need an adapter plug. Adapters are necessary for both electrical devices (e.g., hair dryer) as well as electronics (e.g., laptop) for them to work in the various 220V outlet types found internationally. Adapter types vary by country, so get a multi-adapter or find out which type is needed for your destination.
- A voltage converter or transformer may also be needed if you're traveling with any single-voltage devices whose voltage is different than the voltage provided by your destination. Read your device's label to determine this.
See the REI Expert Advice article, Electricity Guide for Travelers, for instructions and country-by-country outlet/voltage charts.
Other Travel Accessories
If you can't leave home without it, there's likely a travel-size version that will take up less space in your luggage. These accessories range from mini curling irons and hair dryers to clip book lights and travel radios. Whether you pack these accessories is up to you.
If you'll be staying in urban areas, aren't worried about carrying extra gear and prefer to have all the conveniences of home while you're on the road, they could be worth bringing. Otherwise, consider taking a vacation from appliances by leaving them at home.

I sighed. Repeating high school for the third time was really getting on my nerves. I didn't know how the Cullens could stand it. As always though, it was a necessary when moving from place to place.
I glanced at the clock and then to my wife. "Five minutes," I whispered in her ear.
"Until…" Nessie asked, distracted by the book in her hands Romeo and Juliet.
"Until we get out of this hell-hole, otherwise known as English class."
She turned around in her chair to face me and stuck out her tongue. "I happen to like English very much. So suck it up Jake."
"But you like food more, right?" I didn't wait for an answer, just began counting down in my regular volume. "Five, four, three, two, one…"
The bell rang and the teacher gave me a stern look from her place at the head of the classroom and dismissed us.
I practically ran to the lunchroom.
Nessie sat down across from Jasper and Alice, who had unbelievably beaten us to the cafeteria. I plopped down beside her and pulled Alice's tray full of props towards me.
"Hey!" She yelled.
"It's not like you're gonna eat it anyways. No need to waste perfectly good food, aside from the smell." I muttered the last part and Alice laughed. "Besides, I'm not waiting in that crazy line up." I added, looking up at to the front of the lunchroom to see Bella and Rosalie enter the room and head towards our table in the back.
Nessie had rummaged a thermos out of her massive bag and was busy unscrewing the lid. I gave her a questioning look. She didn't usually bring her own lunch, much less eat food at all. She said it made her feel sick.
"There's something I wanted to try," she murmured in response to my shocked expression.
Bella and Rosalie sat down and started talking to Alice and Jasper about some kind of trouble Edward and Emmett had gotten in to during gym class.
I watched as Renesmee opened the thermos and saw steam lazily rise out of it.
Suddenly all the vampires at the table whipped their heads around to stare at my angel.
"You didn't." Bella practically growled.
"What's the matter with you guys?" I asked and looked into the ordinary steel thermos. "It's just tomato soup, what's the big deal?"
Blondie glared. "That's not tomato soup," she whispered.
"Then what…" I looked at Nessie and let my question hang in the air. She looked up at my face and smiled wide, showing all her teeth. Then it hit me.
"OH MAN!" I yelled, laughing my head off. This had to be the funniest thing that had happened all week! Just wait until Carlisle, no better yet, Esme finds out!
I looked around me to find the entire cafeteria staring openly at me because of my little outburst. The children quickly looked away when they found out they had been caught.
Nessie was taking dainty little sips from her thermos with a smug smile lighting up her face.
"Have you guys seriously never thought of that before?" I asked, returning to my normal volume. I remembered the pained looks on their faces when it had occasionaly become necessary for them to eat human food.
They all shook their heads and watched with envious eyes as Nessie wiped the last drop of red from the corner of her mouth as the bell rang.
Jasper, Alice, Rosalie and Bells got up and left, muttering about the answer being right in front of them the whole time as they continued to their next classes.
I scopped Nessie up into my arms in the almost empty lunchroom, hugged her tightly to me and murmured, " I love you my little loca."
She giggled as I spun her around and I earned a sweet, bloodstained kiss as we headed off to endure to rest of the day.
A/N: Hey! I really hope that I did Jacob's character justice, this is my first time writing in his point of view and I would really appreciate some feedback. Thanks! Oh, by the way, at the end Jake calls Renesmee "loca". To translate it for you, loca roughly means "crazy woman" in Quileute (or Spanish, but Quileute sounds better :P )
Love it? Hate it? Review!
Peace out- MiQuerida
