I have a main panel (unfortunately without a main breaker) and a sub panel. The sub panel is fed from the main panel via a dual pole breaker. One red and one black connection with some pretty hefty looking wire.
When I turn off the dual pole breaker (dual switch connected), the black wire to the panel is no longer hot, but the red remains hot. I see no reason why this would or should happen, except that the breaker has failed. Can anyone concur that breakers do fail in this way?
Thanks in advance.

Salary cap advice: Joe Flacco, Kyle Rudolph among Week 5 values
Story Highlights
Joe Flacco is the pick of the week against Kansas City; Jay Cutler is also a bargain
Arian Foster will cost a premium, but he'll be worth every penny against the Jets
After a quiet week, Kyle Rudolph should have another big game against Tennessee
Unlike more traditional fantasy football leagues in which users have to play for season-long trends, weekly salary cap formats allow players to take advantage of hot tips and the best matchups of the moment. Here is a position-by-position look at some of the best bargains entering Week 5, with prices based on current FanDuel 10-team leagues.
If you're looking for a salary cap challenge, test your skills by going head-to-head with SI's Peter King in the Peter King Fantasy Challenge.
Quarterbacks: Drew Brees can break Johnny Unitas' record of 47 consecutive games with at least one touchdown pass this Sunday at home against the Chargers, but landing him for your salary cap roster will cost you dearly. There's another pricey quarterback who's worth every penny this week, though: Matt Ryan and his incredibly skilled receiving trio of Roddy White, Julio Jones and Tony Gonzalez against the Redskins. If you're looking to save a few dollars under your cap by grabbing a bargain, target the resurgent Jay Cutler against the struggling Jaguars or my pick of the week, Baltimore's Joe Flacco against a Kansas City team that's given up the second-most passing touchdowns through four weeks.
Running backs: It's often wise to shy away from the top salary in a category, but Arian Foster against the Jets Monday night is a dream matchup (or a nightmare matchup if you're a Jets fan). If you're trying to save a little but still land a stud, go for Marshawn Lynch, who's running as well as anyone these days and will face a Panthers defense that has struggled against the run. Meanwhile, affordable option Jackie Battle has seized at least a share of the Chargers' running duties, including the all-important goal-line carries, and he's going against a Saints team surrendering an average of 14 more rushing yards per game (186.8) than any other defense. Finally, Washington's Alfred Morris is one of five running backs to rush for 375 yards and four touchdowns through four weeks of his rookie season (the others are Earl Campbell, Eric Dickerson, Billy Sims and LaDainian Tomlinson), yet he still has not risen to the top of the price list. He's a steal against the Falcons, who are tough against the pass but relatively weak against the run.
Wide receivers: As usual, there are myriad options. Despite catching just one of eight balls thrown his way last week, Atlanta's Jones is worth the moderate freight it'll cost to get him. Of the deeper reaches, none may be better than Minnesota's Jerome Simpson, who had four catches for 50 yards in his debut last week and faces a Titans defense that has allowed at least two receiving touchdowns in every game so far. Giants Domenik Hixon and Rueben Randle are equally priced and are solid options with Hakeem Nicks ruled out and replacement Ramses Barden unlikely to play. And don't forget Green Bay's James Jones, who is undervalued after catching two touchdowns last week while filling in for Greg Jennings, who is out again this week versus the Colts.
Tight ends: The moderately priced Kyle Rudolph was quiet last week, but he's been monopolizing Minnesota's end zone receptions and will bounce back nicely against the Titans. Baltimore's Dennis Pitta was shut out against Cleveland, but that won't happen two weeks in a row. Among the minimum wagers, don't be surprised to see Anthony Fasano emerge as a steal.
Kickers: It's too late to land St. Louis' Greg "Legatron" Zuerlein, who played Thursday but was limited to just one field goal and two extra points. But fear not: Alex Henery, Blair Walsh and Adam Vinatieri will all get the job done and cost the minimum.
Defense: The Texans have one of the league's most potent defenses; they're facing the Jets, who have one of the league's worst offenses (at least until they spring Tim Tebow on an unsuspecting foe). That makes Houston the blue light special this week. Also worth targeting: the freshly re-stocked Steelers, who are coming off a much-needed bye week and will get James Harrison and Troy Polamalu back in the lineup in time to make things difficult for the turnover prone Eagles.

The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven by the power of knowledge to solve today's most challenging problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic life.
Aug 16, 2011
A frightening rollercoaster week for the stock market replaced the debt ceiling deal as the driving force in economic coverage last week. And a Republican debate in Iowa helped propel the 2012 presidential contest to its biggest week of coverage so far.
From August 8-14, the economy was the top story at 32% of the newshole, according to the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism, marking its eighth week in a row as the No. 1 subject. It was the second consecutive week, however, in which economic coverage had dropped—down from 45% the previous week and 52% the week before that.
The week that many in the media called the most dramatic since the economic crash of 2008 had news organizations scrambling to cover and make sense of the gyrations of a stock market that plunged 634 points one day and jumped 430 the next day. But lingering reactions to the federal government's debt compromise and the downgrade of the U.S. credit rating also made headlines.

Project Green
What's wrong with the current preoccupation with all things green? I have friends who say the environmental initiatives sprouting like weeds are the consumer and the market taking control – AT LAST! - of issues the White House would rather ignore. A global, cultural surge towards sustainability. Something to applaud and encourage! Maybe. But I don't believe everything green is worth celebrating this spring.

As a kid, I remember going to a summer workshop that was just for girls at a local university. We got to extract DNA from fruit flies and participated in a dissection at the vet school. It was very exciting, a little gross, and I felt lucky to have had such a unique experience.
I thought of this when I heard that girls had won the top prizes in the first Google Science Fair. It made me curious to know what you are doing to help girls develop a love of science. Is it through a favorite book, a hands-on activity, or simply encouraging their natural curiosities about the world around them?
If you are looking for some inspiration, Science NetLinks has a collection of resources for Women's History Month that focus on the diverse achievements and scientific work of women. This collection includes information on female scientists who have changed history, the diversity of the scientific community, and stories from young women who are working in a variety of STEM fields.
I just love the Science Cheerleaders. More than 200 current and former professional cheerleaders from the NFL, NBA, and other pro sports leagues, pursuing science and engineering careers make up the Science Cheerleaders.
If you're looking for ideas, Science NetLinks has a collection of hands-on science activities you can do at home. This collection also includes our afterschool activites that are perfect for informal settings.
Another really cool resource to support girls pursuing engineering is organized by the National Academy of Engineering ... Engineer Girl is here: http://engineergirl.org/
Hi Ric,
Thanks for reminding me about this great site. We have it listed on our collection of resources for National Engineers Week but it needs to be added to Women's History Month!
Kids Talk Radio Science is training girls to become student backpack science journalists. Girls get to study at Kids Talk Radio's Jr. Medical School. Students report enhanced STEM news in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, visual arts and foreign languages. Students are trained online and have additional summer opportunites to study in Los Angeles and Long Beach, California. Advanced gifted and talented students have opportunities to to join the International Cabo Verde Tenth Island Project STEM Teams.
I'll have to check that out! Thanks, Bob.
Found this cool website, Under the Microscope-Where Women and Science Connect, that has a rich archive of resources and current events announcements.
From their "About Us" ...
Under the Microscope is the online component of the Women Writing Science project at The Feminist Press. Under the Microscope collects stories from women involved with science, technology, engineering, and math with the goal of publishing a survival guide for young women in science. Under the Microscope also publishes news, tips, interviews and profiles.
Under the Microscope is funded by the National Science Foundation and was developed by IBM.

Our school just invited some engineers over from Boeing to speak to the students, it was great for the girls to see a woman who is making her career in engineering! If you have companies like this near your schools, you could ask some professionals to visit and share their experiences. They talked about their education, career, company projects, and income level! They even gave the students an engineering challenge to do as part of the presentation. It was a great assembly!
That is a great idea, Kristen. Thanks for sharing!
Here's some news from the Science Cheerleaders. I love what these women do to encourage girls to love science.
Did you see this? This program offeres a rich source of "content" to initiate a seminar or group discussion.
PBS News Hour: Why Aren't There More Female Scientist, Engineers?
A recap of a live chat examines why women lag behind in some areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and what can be done to encourage more young women to pursue careers in STEM fields.
The original program is here:
I am contacting Universities and getting PhD and master students doing research to have a shadow day for my kids. So far I was able to get 6 researchers and 12-15 girls will be able to shadow a researcher for a day.
That's amazing, Vanessa! Wouldn't it be great if everyone did this each year?
It would be great if each one of us connected to a couple of teachers at the university level and did something similar. I had a girl and two boys on July 25th and I will have four girls tomorrow August 2nd. The biggest issue was the transportation during vacation time. I intend to continue this partnership and making it an annual event. I will try to do it before school ends. I will also continue to seek other possibilities to contact other universities. I am in a group of teachers that meet with elementary and high school science teachers to align the curriculum and help each other to work with each others requirements. The plan is to have a must have group of laboratories each year and keep building the concepts.
Here's a great story to share with students...
Ruchi Sanghvi was 23 years old when she became the first female engineer at Facebook. Definitely inspiring!
Learn more about her here.
Have played around with this site - very cool.
A program of Girls, Math & Science Partnership [GMSP]–Click! engages girls, ages 10–14, to solve mysteries and complete covert missions using important science concepts as agents-in-training. The program utilizes relatable narratives and cutting-edge technology, while encouraging tactile-based inquiry and real-world problem solving skills. Teen girls get a rare opportunity to explore careers in science, technology, engineering, and math through new media, hands-on experiments, and interactions with professional mentors from esteemed companies and universities.

Hi Linda,
Thanks for sharing those resources! I look forward to checking them out.
Hello Sarah;
As an Engineer by training and Wife Science major doing IT raising two kids, Son in College and Daughter in High School. Through this years, we found very limited Science or Technology based after school activity during their Pre K to 6th grade, but as a Parent we volunteered various ways including Coaching in a neighborhood based STEM activities like FIRST LEGO League, Odyssey of the Mind, Math Count and later in Middle/High School in Science Olympiad, Science Fair, FIRST Tech Challenge and Robotics. FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition in Science and Technology) USFIRST.org is similar to team sports (Robots), integrates STEM based hands-on activities and research (yearly new challenge) for students of all ages, and prepare them in Careers in 21st Century. It was started in 1989 by Inventor Dean Kamen and compliments Teachers to engage K-12 students in 70 countries in STEM program. It also encourages participants several core values in life, be gracious professionals and share the knowledge in the community and importantly become mentors. The Scholarships are awarded by the FIRST partners, sponsors and Universities. FIRST Volunteers participate in major community providing demos and literatures. Sharing a recent STEMosphere (Share Fair 2014) event I and my daughter were able to assist.
Share Fair - Washington, DC Home Page | STEMosphere | powered by RegOnline

The March madness also seen during the Regional Engineering/Science Fair and State Science Olympiad (Home Page | Science Olympiad) where teachers and volunteers assist with the Judging, volunteering and awarding future Scientists.
While this news is exciting and future is bright, but questions daunts to my 10th graders is why she see so few Girls take careers in STEM subject. She kind of knows the answer, while participating in above fields, she is taking steps through the community outreach, encourage young kids to participate in sports like STEM program and have fun.
Hi Desh,
Thanks so much for sharing these STEM resources and good luck to your daughter! I hope those activities inspire her to keep going.

Dear Mr. President…
It doesn't really matter if you like to talk politics, or you tend to keep your opinions to yourself. Soft spoken or not, we don't know a woman alive that doesn't have a strong opinion about something - and we want to hear yours. Not only is this an election year, the future of the world as we know it is at pivotal point. Action speaks louder than words, and we at Fab & Fru think that NOW is the time to stop waiting for others to come up with solutions and start voicing our own!
No matter which political party you identify with, we want to create a safe and neutral place for women to share their ideas, not to argue, but to inspire change. Please take the time to comment on the issues that matter to you most. Think of this ongoing forum as our own Fab & Fru think tank. Forget the politics and focus on solutions. If you could stand in front of Congress, in front of the President - what would you say? This forum may start with what may seem are just a bunch of comments, but TOGETHER our collective voice can become more than talk. Together, we can BE the change…
The State of the Government
From the economy to education, if you were President, what would you fight to change? Is our current political system in need of some adjustment? What about Congress? If you could change anything about the system, what would it be?
african-american-woman-talking-with-doctor-300x425Healthcare & Women's Health
As a woman, what is the most important thing to you when it comes to healthcare for you and your family? Are you up to speed about what's going on with The Affordable Healthcare Act passed in 2010? Do you feel women's specific healthcare needs are overshadowed by the politics of abortion? Do you think politics has a place in healthcare? What would you change?
Jobs, Jobs, & More Jobs?
Do I need to say more? Is the land of opportunity a thing of the past? While millions of people of all generations and education levels are out of work and in desperate need of a job, the kids coming out of school today are even at a greater disadvantage. Are the days of each generation doing better than their parents over? Can the government turn it around? Can they actually create enough jobs for all those in need? How do we turn it around? How do we bring the American dream back?
The Value of Education
From tenure to test scores to the right to a college education, how do we challenge the system to make education stronger? If being a teacher is one of the most important jobs, how can poorer areas entice better educators? If the government put more money into education, how can we ensure it ends up bettering the students directly?
To Drill or Not to DrillWall Street
How do we lessen our dependency on foreign oil? Should we be tapping more of our resources at home? Would it help our economy to drill more? There is no question that the world needs to find efficient alternate energy sources to subsidize our global dependency on oil, but what is the best approach to address our needs today as well as tomorrow?
A Global World
It goes without saying that in general women have always viewed war and peace differently than men. In this global economy, the world has never been smaller and more intertwined. From the threats in the Middle East to our economic co-dependency with China, how can we continue to grow the global economy while doing our part to help keep the peace?
Get involved in the discussion, and tell us what you think!Read more at Fabandfru.com

Polished Perfection: The Art of Turned-Wood Bowls, the Edward Jacobson Collection
This exhibition features 84 works by 21 contemporary North American craftsmen and four early American settlers, all of whom work in turned-wood. The lathe has been used by craftsmen to hew blocks of wood into functional and decorative objects for thousands of years. In the 20th century, when mechanized mass-production replaced the hand lathe, the craftsmen who persisted in turning were able to more freely explore their own aesthetic. Works on view include those by Del Stubbs, Ed Moulthrop, James Prestini, Melvin Lindquist, and Ronald Kent, among others.

You've Been Mathed!
by Matthew Burnside on July 22, 2010
Remember the days before the Internet? Days when bathroom stalls provided that mask of secrecy needed to insult each other in a public forum. Thankfully bathroom stalls didn't go to the wayside after the '90′s for multiple reasons. This might be my favorite insult and favorite mathematical proof of all time. See ya later "poopdick" and the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. We've had some good times.

Traditionally, bathroom cabinetry was limited to small medicine cabinets above the sink and sink vanities with limited storage space. That's changing.
In small bathrooms today, homeowners are putting in space-saving plumbing arrangements in order to use every cubic foot of their vanities. It takes some ingenuity, but if you can install the drain, trap, and supply lines and valves close to the wall, then you can buy a vanity with several deep drawers that slide under the sink. Drawers allow better organization of miscellaneous bathroom items—hair dryers and tissue boxes, etc. Drawers also make it easier to see and reach stored items.
If you don't want to buy a new vanity, or if rearranging plumbing is not your cup of tea, one option is to install a pull-out drawer under the trap with shelves to either side of it. (ShelvesThatSlide.com sells DIY kits at a fair price.)
Replacing a small medicine cabinet with a larger one adds a surprising amount of shelf space. In the past, medicine cabinets were installed in the void between studs in the wall behind the sink, severely crimping their storage capacity. Newer models hang on the wall and tend to be much bigger. A cabinet that's three feet tall is not uncommon. Be forewarned that such units are heavy, especially those with mirrored doors are mirrors. Hanging one may require the installation of blocking between studs inside the wall (which in turn usually requires the removal of some wallboard); the cabinet can then be screwed securely to the blocking.
Another strategy for small bathrooms is to install an over-the-toilet cabinet, making use of space normally wasted. These cabinets are typically shallow (only 8- or 9-in. deep) to allow adequate head room, but they're ideal for storing small items. Some incorporate a towel bar for hanging hand towels.
In large bathrooms, double-width vanities with two sinks are popular. In really large bathrooms, there may be room for base cabinets that flank the vanity and have wall cabinets above. In such cases, the old medicine cabinet is eliminated and replaced with a lockable drawer.
Large bathrooms often incorporate tall cabinets or corner cabinets, and just as as often these serve as linen closets. Before storing linens in a bathroom, however, make sure you have a vent fan (a properly functioning one). The vent fan should run for 5 or 10 minutes after showers and baths to keep humidity low (installing a timer switch is a good idea). Linen cabinets include various combinations of shelves, drawers, and hampers.

The Worst Thing That Ever Happened To Friday
by Matt Grosinger on March 14, 2011
It's not a good sign when I have to introduce a post with an apology, but I am sorry. This song ruined my weekend, and I guess I didn't know any other way to cope with the trauma than sharing it with all of you. There really is not much else to say. I think the worst part of the song is a five-way tie between the lyrics, music, video, Rebecca Black, and her friends. I am so so sorry:
I had to watch this on a Monday. I am not looking forward to Friday, thanks.
Surely this was a joke? Nobody was nice enough to tell this girl how horrible this is?
I don't know what's worse… finding out Wil Wheaton's blocked you on Twitter or watching this. Worst. Monday. … wait for it… Evah!
Why Chris, why you gotta hurt us like that?
Vomit! What a horrible horrible thing to do to a young girl! She may be ok with all this now, but in a year all the other little girls are going to realize she's shite and she will never live it down. Just Horrible.
How long did it take everybody to stop this abomination?
I made it to 1:30.
This is almost poetic.
It's like watching an accident.
It's so horrible, but you just can't look away.
Re: Louis…it would be sweet if this video ended with that aforementioned accident!! Ohh, the humanity….. And I only made it to 24 seconds.
Yeah, it's awful, but the whole thing is worth it just for Abbey's comment.
Wow, I can't believe I just watched all of that. However, instead of the obvious comments, I'll just give it props for one thing: using surprisingly average, "real" people for extras instead of made-up "beautiful" people. Side note: I am not convinced anyone in that car is old enough to drive.
"Gotta have my bowl"?? She's obviously a stoner.
FRIEEYY-DAY FRIEEYY-DAEEY. Music is dying
Where's the palate cleanser on that video.
Wow. Makes me want to dance … in the same motion for 5 minutes straight. head-tilt left, head tilt right, head-tilt left, head tilt right. ahh, havin fun now.
And I was like
Friday, Friday, Friday ohhh
Like Friday, Friday, Friday noo
Like Friday, Friday, Friday ohh
I thought you'd always be mine. mine
As an Englishman I was completely unaware of this person, so thanks for putting it up on the site. Ignorance truly is Bliss.
Wow, she's just a kid. It may not be the greatest but as adults there are better things we can be making fun of. Whats next busting into a 3rd grade class and making fun of how crappy their penmanship is?
Whoa… Her voice can't really be that annoying, can it?
1 minute 36 seconds was all I could take! Wow! This is what comes from everyone being special! I'm sure she has some wonderful talents, but singing isn't one of them. And the blue eye shadow! Really?!? Didn't she learn anything from the mistakes of my generation? NO. Obviously not. She got her 15 seconds, I hope it was worth it!
@Mark Warren -
Sure she's a kid, but anyone who has had to deal with teenagers knows how horribly pretentious they are. They're cool and everyone else is not. Most of them want everything handed to them on a platter regardless of their talent. Little kids? Nah. They deserve a break. Teenagers, well, just by the very nature of their brains being all out of wack need to hear the truth. It's better to do it now and let them rebuild their confidence in something they're really good at than let them go on with a pipe dream that leaves them without any skills and working low-skilled, low-paying jobs for the rest of their lives. They're much more resilient than you give them credit for being.
If you make it to 2:30 you get to see the gratuidous black guy rap breakdown. HA! I love it! And maybe not sarcastically… No; sarcastically.
I do feel for the girl, though. Unless this was a gift for her "Super Sweet Sixteen!" from her "daddy".
"Partyin' Partyin', YEAH! Fun fun fun fun."
I don't even blame this girl. I get it. Teenagers want to be pop stars. Who I really blame are her (presumably) wealthy parents for shelling out money for studio time and anybody who has ever worked on the development or advancement of autotune technology.
And in a surprise "Favorite Game" style twist ending, the driver starts texting at the beginning of the video, crashes and they all die horrible, bloody deaths. Much better video.
I want to laugh but i can't. Its not funny its just so sad and bland. Jennifer Aniston would love it.
She really must have a perfect life to not have anything to sing about other than her daily routine and what seat to sit it. She has as much flavor is tap water. I need to spread the malaise I'm feeling with the world. I've decided to make popsicles out of water and food coloring than hand them out to children. This is what you've made me do.
This song will haunt my dreams. Damn you Hardwick!
You arsehole
This is the only song I believe that a teenage girl actually wrote, not like the others that have theirs "ghost written" by people who can think about things that aren't going to happen in the immediate future.
But honestly, who hasn't struggled with the epic question of "front seat back seat?" Without this pressing question we would not be blessed with the great car seat conquering game of SHOTGUN.
This can't be any worse than Kim Kardashian's song. I'm guessing.
The Bob Dylan cover almost makes it worth it.
I can understand how Rebecca Black, being a teenager, probably thought this was , like, the most awsome thing EVAH! What I can't understand is how there could be a producer out there who thought this song was so good it warranted a video. Whoever is responsible for afflicting the world with this abomination must be suffering from a full frontal lobotomy.
I didn't think it was possible but, this song is actually worse than LFO – "Summer Girls".
I've never seen anything as bad as Firday. Nuff said.
The song is cringe inducing. But what can we expect from the POV of a 13-year-old? That's about as much 'fun,fun,fun,fun' most of them can have at that age.
And is that song any worse than any other song about Friday? I started my teens after the disco era (Friday! Thank God It's Friday! Friday!) and there are a lot of bad songs about Friday (and a few unnecessarily means one about Monday, too. "I don't like Mondays…shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, the whole day down. With Election Day and 9/11 happening on Tuesdays, THAT day deserves a bullet or two.) and the weekend as well.
What do you expect when you grow up listening to Top 40 channels whose idea of fun is playing 'Working for the Weekend' and 'Bang on De Drum' at 5pm on a Friday afternoon for the umpteenth time?

Sample sales, or sometimes called warehouse sales (or the best things to ever happen to me), occur when a designer or fashion label has too much merchandise and needs to unload. Some of the goods might be out of season, wrinkled or need a bit of tailoring, but who can resist steep discounts? Especially since New York City is the most expensive city in America. I can't give away all my secrets, but the biggest tip on surviving a sample sale is knowledge.
Though new balance attempts to force into this niche of neutrals footwear started out with the releases of the 759 and 905, the new stability 890 is and entirely diverse course. My first perception with this shoe was such that I dumped my other pairs and took it in as my official street runner. Due to its slight bodyweight, it is perfect for speed runs and tempo function although it has ample cushioning to endure the rigors of a prolonged operate.

Hey Seefy long time no see your work is wonderful as always!
You and your clean lines. You're pretty awesome at that thar semi-realism.

18x36" custom canvas that I built myself. (Apparently this isn't a standard canvas size, which I did not know until yesterday! Interesting...) I used Wal-Mart acrylic for it. XD!! <--QUALITY, GAIZ.
Almost done on a new piece, which is a commission for my mom's friend's wedding. I'm trying suuuuper hard to finish it today. I'll have a busy two and a half weeks ahead of me. Before I leave on spring break, I have to finish a triptych of paintings, and two other large-scale ones. I bought $100 worth of supplies and got a $150 deposit on one painting yesterday from a client. I'm probably finishing that painting next because I hate holding onto peoples' money when they don't have a finished piece. DX Wish me luuuuck! <3

Dude. You seriously hafta make a series of these now. Imagine how awesome four or five of these paintings done with different flowers and colors would look hanging around the house!
Out of curiosity, exactly where does the orange => black gradient center itself at? 'Cause I'm looking at my screen at one angle, and it appears to be in one place, but when I lower my viewpoint slightly it looks like the gradient's going down with me. :P
Holy smokes, Seef! You're some kind of painting master. o__O

Banshee 1.6 Integrates with Ubuntu One Music Store
Access and purchase music from within the media player.
Banshee 1.6 proves to be a stable release after the numerous developer releases in the 1.5.x series. In addition to the U1MS plugin created by Jo Shields, the new Banshee includes numerous improvements over 1.4. Among them is a DJ tool called a Play Queue that randomly plays music by artist, album, song rating or score mode. The new Banshee also has an import filter for MP3 songs purchased from eMusic.
Banshee 1.6 supports a number of new devices, among them HTC's Nexus One, Nokia's N900 and the Palm Pre. The Banshee download archives page includes the full list of enhancements.
Ubuntu One Music Store for all?
The Banshee player, programmed in Mono, was originally developed by Novell. However, Novell and the other distros aren't likely to have any interest in delivering the U1MS plugin with the Banshee version, because cloud support is required to access Ubuntu One.
The newest openSUSE version of Banshee doesn't include the U1MS plugin, but the Banshee community extensions (that include the plugin) in the libubuntuone libraries can be compiled into other distros. In a short test, it was relatively easy to install the plugin into openSUSE 11.3. Not unexpectedly, the compiled version of Banshee crashed almost immediately after activating the plugin.

Singletary: Gore may play Sundayby Post Staff
Running back Frank Gore, who left the San Francisco 49ers' win over the New York Jets Sunday with an ankle injury, could be on the field this week when the 49ers visit Miami at Dolphin Stadium, coach Mike Singletary told the Bay Area media Monday.
"It depends on how Frank is doing," Singletary said. "There's going to be some extra incentive. He's going home."
Gore twisted his ankle early in the second half and needed help to get off the field. He was taken by a cart to the locker room for X-rays, which did not reveal a fracture. He finished the game with 14 carries for 52 yards.
Gore, of course, who ranks 10th in NFC rushing with 978 yards on 229 carries, played collegiately at the University of Miami.
Gore needs just 22 yards to become the first 49ers player with 1,000 yards in three consecutive seasons.
If Gore is unable to go, Singletary is likely to turn to DeShaun Foster, who has just 78 yards on 37 carries this season. Foster has a history of fumbles, raising questions as to whether the 49ers might sign Thomas Clayton off the practice squad this week if they determine Gore won't be able to go.

Allergy UNAWARENESS – I spoke to "Chris", the manager of the 5500 Grossmont Center Dr. location, asking him if he could offer, my allergy ridden daughter, a menu with the outlined allergens when she went in for a birthday lunch she was to attend. Other chain restaurants offer this with no problem i.e. Marie calendars, Coco's, Red Robin and even Denny's. He offered his assistance from the 8 hour class Claim jumper required him to take. Not acceptable! I told him that for a life-or-death allergy to eggs, nuts and fish, going on blind faith of his class was not an option. I feel Claim jumper is remiss in their responsibility to protect the anaphylactic patrons. For crying out loud, McDonalds offers the list! Claim Jumpers, a list such as this would only bring in more revenue. There ought to be a LAW! Shame on you!
Gold mining and dining unite at this kitschy all-American eatery. – In Short
Established in 1977, the Claim Jumper draws families, seniors and professionals with a mix of Old-West decor and a reliable menu of American classics. Logs, corrugated tin, rock and warm fireplaces embellish the unique ambience. Signature plates include hickory-smoked pork ribs, rotisserie chicken and barbecued beef tri-tip; the menu also offers tortilla chicken soup, potpies, wood-fired pizzas, and the popular six-layer Chocolate Motherlode Cake. The saloon features appetizers and the restaurant's own brews.
Good chicken fried steak – I'm going with 3 stars because (1) they have a good chicken fried steak, (2) while you wait for a table beepers are provided and you can visit the bar in back with the beeper in hand and (3) the decor is rustic.
The Claim Jumper staff needs some serious training. Mostly it is an attitude problem but it's spilling over into poor service. Claim Jumper management should remind them of these things:
(1) Greet me as I enter the restaurant: you need to smile and actually be pleased to see a paying customer.
(2) Grooming: wear clean wrinkle-free modest clothes.
(3) Wear your name badge, say your name clearly and honestly make me comfortable.
(4) "I'll be your server tonight." Smile. Let your face tell me you are happy to be an employee and offering me service.
(5) Be sure I have napkins, silverware and a menu.
(6) "Can I get you something to drink while you look over the menu?" Take the drink order and then get the drinks to the table QUICKLY.
(7) Help me with the ordering process, smile, repeat back the order and put the order into the kitchen immediately.
(8) Deliver the orders to the right person.
(9) Be alert and available.
(10) Don't draw hearts on the bill; smile when you present it.
(11) Tell me THANK YOU and mean it!
(12) Thank me for coming as I leave.
Good dinners & salad bar! – Really large portions, ex-large deserts! You will be given a beeper for your turn. We hung out at the bar....

Daytime owl knows where it's headed

The sparrows caught my eye. With eight species flitting around a corn stubble field in Watertown, my attention was mostly on the ground.
I think it was a sound in a tree across the road, maybe the tapping of a woodpecker, that turned my gaze upward. That's when I saw the raptor gliding by overhead.

James Morrison came back from injury to set up West Bromwich Albion's first away win of the Barclays Premier League season as his powerful header helped the visitors to sink Wigan Athletic at the DW Stadium.
The Scotland midfielder was forced to miss West Brom's win over Southampton on Monday night, due to a hamstring problem, but he returned to help inspire Steve Clarke's men to three points which keeps them firmly planted in the league's top six.
Morrison met a cross from Chris Brunt to head an unstoppable opener past Ali Al Habsi, before a Gary Caldwell own goal put the Baggies in command. Arouna Kone reduced the deficit and the Latics piled on the pressure but could not claim a point.
The visitors started with Peter Odemwingie on the bench despite his two-goal haul against Southampton, but his replacement, Romelu Lukaku, quickly made his presence felt with a surging forward run.
Maynor Figueroa drilled a low long-range shot just wide for the home side in the fifth minute and James McCarthy's persistence also fashioned an early chance after he robbed Claudio Yacob and pressed forward.
And it took Baggies goalkeeper Boaz Myhill - in for his first senior Baggies game in 21 months due to injury to Ben Foster - nine minutes to prove worthy of his call-up as he pulled off a superb save to deny Ben Watson.
The visitors slowly began to find their rhythm, with the alert Al Habsi racing from his goal to deny Lukaku, as the home side, who continued to shade possession in an open game, were too often let down by a stray final ball.
More scrappy play from the hosts almost cost them dear after 26 minutes when indecision in defence forced Al Habsi to come out and save from Morrison then dive on the loose ball as Lukaku waited to pounce.
But there was nothing scrappy about the opener on the half-hour as Brunt flung in a precise cross from wide on the left and Morrison aimed his magnificent header past Al Habsi from the edge of the six-yard box.
And the visitors almost increased their lead seven minutes later when Billy Jones cut in from the right and unleashed a fierce left-footed drive which flashed just wide of Al Habsi's left-hand post.
The second goal arrived after 43 minutes when Jones' effort from a tight angle was deflected into his own net by Wigan captain Caldwell - but less than a minute later Kone pulled one back when he poked home Beausejour's cross.
Beausejour had the first chance of the second half when he hit a shot from the left side of the box high over Myhill's bar after the goalkeeper had parried from Watson, then Caldwell headed just wide as the home side enjoyed a significant spell of pressure.
The Baggies should have extended their lead in the 56th minute when Lukaku lashed a shot on the turn that was brilliantly tipped over the bar by Al Habsi at point-blank range.
Shaun Maloney should have done better for Wigan when he was teed up by a pass from Franco Di Santo in the middle of the box in the 72nd minute, but blazed his shot well over the bar.
Then a chance for Di Santo came to nothing in the 80th minute when he got his head on a Beausejour cross from the left but could only direct the ball against team-mate Kone, from whom it deflected on to the roof of the net.

French screen icon Bardot fined for anti-Muslim remarks
France's 1960s screen icon Brigitte Bardot received a 15,000-euro (23,000 dollar) fine on Tuesday for inciting hatred against Muslims.
In December 2006, the film star-turned-animal rights activist wrote a letter to France's then interior minister, current President Nicolas Sarkozy, arguing that Muslims should stun animals before slaughtering them during the Aid al-Kabir holiday. She outraged anti-racist groups by saying: "I've had enough of being led by the nose by this whole population which is destroying us, (and) destroying our country by imposing their ways."

Brighton Museum & Art Gallery, with its rich and diverse collections, creates a vibrant cultural centre in and around the Royal Pavilion estate in the heart of the city of Brighton & Hove.
Dynamic and innovative galleries provide greatly improved access to the Museum's nationally and locally important collections. Objects are displayed in stimulating contexts with a wide range of interpretative techniques, including interactive information technology. Improved facilities include: the Museum entrance in the Royal Pavilion gardens with a spacious foyer and shop; improved disabled access; education facilities with an art room and a dedicated education 'pavilion'. The Museum has worked with community groups to broaden access to its collections and services. A Hindu shrine in the World Art gallery created with the local Gujarati community, and oral histories of local people are examples of these collaborations.
This museum has a Designated Collection of national importance.

Dr Brighton's War: Hospitals and Healing in Brighton during WW1
- 9 July — 31 August 2014
Brighton & Hove played a full part in the Great War, not only by providing hundreds of young men to fight, but also as 'Doctor Brighton' a hospital city where wounded soldiers were sent to recover in healthy 'Sussex by the Sea', before being sent back to their regiments or discharged into civilian life.
This pictorial exhibition on Brighton seafront will tell how Brighton & Hove was transformed by the presence of the many military hospitals required to treat the increasing number of casualties returning from the Front. As a seaside resort the city was ideally suited to entertaining these young men and distracting them from the horrors of war, but more importantly, Brighton played its part in retraining the seriously injured and preparing them for their integration back into society after life-changing injury.
The exhibition features images from photographs, postcards and posters held in the Royal Pavilion and Museums' collections.
Suitable for
- Any age

The range of stories to be featured could include a soldier on the Western Front, women on the front line, a conscientious objector, and a child growing up in wartime. The exhibition is part of a European funded Interreg 2Seas project, working with museums in Belgium and France.
