Francis Watson, professor of New Testament at Durham University, has an exceptionally careful study contending the recently released fragment from the so-called Gospel of Jesus' Wife is more than likely a modern pastiche from The Gospel of Thomas.

Glad to see his study is making the rounds.

Interesting and thoughtful study. (I also hadn't realize how closely related Greek & Coptic were.) Watson's post scripts were thought-provoking, too. We seem to prefer muddy waters over clear waters, when we're on self-justifying quests.

Home run for life brings a smile to all
The Los Angeles Dodgers deserve a round of applause for this.
And Cash Davis deserves a standing ovation.
Davis, just five years old, recently survived a first-of-its-kind surgery at Phoenix Children's Hospital. It saved his life.
So, before a recent spring training game between the Dodgers and San Diego Padres, Davis got to round the bases, with players from both teams lining the base lines to support him and the crowd cheering the entire time.

Thanks for using the Editorial Calendar. I'm sorry you're having an issue with it.
Can you give me a few more details about what's going on. I can't really read Hebrew.
What steps did you follow to see this error? Any chance you can try it in English so I can read the messages?
thanks for the quick response :)
i went to the custom statuses and in a new status with the name רעיון, i tried to enter the description "יש צורך לאשר לפני פרסום" and when i saved it it gave me in the description this "u05d8u05d9u05d5u05d8u05d0".
i tried to look for the status description in the DB to see what is the collation of the cell and couldn't find it.
is this have been helpful?
Thanks for the information. I'm not sure what you mean by a custom status. Where did you enter it? Where did you see "u05d8u05d9u05d5u05d8u05d0"?
Can you give me some steps I could follow to try to reproduce this problem?
shit. i got mixed up with the edit flow plugin who also have an editorial calendar... :)
i'll move the thread to their support forum.
No worries. Good luck with Edit Flow.
actually i removed Edit flow AND started to use editorial calendar, cause it is more specific for my needs, and you seem to be ready to improve, so i figured i'll help too.
if i can help in some way, please let me know.

Does Facebook need an introduction? It's the world's biggest social network. There's a film about it. And no matter how the company fares in future, it has already had a significant impact on our society
As you probably know, Facebook is a free social network that helps friends keep in touch. You can post short status updates that are seen by your 'friends' - who can be anyone you've chosen to connect with on Facebook.
As Facebook has evolved, it's become enormous. More than a third of UK adults log on every day. The company also has a popular instant chat service (called Facebook Messenger) and is constantly experimenting with new services.
This social network's emphasis is on personal rather than business use, so it is best suited to businesses that target consumers rather than businesses.
Facebook began as a service to help college students in the US stay in touch. But today, it can help your business in all manner of ways. For instance:
The hub of your Facebook presence will be a page for your business. Through this, it is possible to build a presence quickly.
You can also spend money to advertise and promote your business on Facebook. The benefit to doing this is that you can get in front of more people - over the years, Facebook has made changes that make it harder for businesses to get in front of customers without spending money.
However, it's still possible to establish an effective Facebook presence without spending a penny. And as this social network exerts such a huge influence, it's wise to have some business information there.
It only takes a few minutes to create a Facebook page for your business. However, you may need to invest more time to reach a significant number of current and prospective customers.
Here's how to get started. You can change and fine tune everything later (or even delete it all and start again), so don't worry about getting everything right first time.
1. Get your own Facebook account
You need to have a personal Facebook account in order to create a business page. You can sign up for a personal account online in just a couple of minutes.
You don't have to enter an enormous amount of information about yourself now, but you might want to add details of your interests in order to identify yourself as an expert in your area of business.
(It might feel like you are blurring the boundaries between your personal and professional lives. However, this is how Facebook works, so you may have to adjust to this informal way of building relationships around your business.)
You can also join a 'network' (this might be your school, university or location, depending on which you identify with most) and can connect with people you know. Doing this will make it easier to attract people to your business page - but it's not compulsory.
You should also review your Facebook privacy settings to make sure you're happy with who can see what you post.
2. Start creating your page
Next, you can create a page for your business. If you're using Facebook on your main computer, select the arrow icon (top right), then choose Create page.
Facebook will walk you through the steps to create your business page. Initially, you'll be asked to choose what you're creating a page for. Most small businesses will select one of these options:
You'll them be prompted to enter information about your business. Facebook offers plenty of advice to help you decide what to enter. Be concise, but be sure to include essential information.
Having said that, don't agonise over what you enter. Once you've seen how the information appears on the page, you'll probably want to make changes anyway.
Facebook will also ask if you want to pay to promote your page. If you've not used Facebook for business before, skip this step. You can decide whether to start spending money once you've learnt more about how Facebook works.
3. View and tweak your page
Once you've entered the key details, your page will be generated. Facebook usually shows some tips to get you started – it's wise to read these.
You can edit most parts of the page by selecting them. For instance:
You'll also want to post your first status message. This can be anything at all about your business – perhaps a welcome message, an image of your products or details of an introductory special offer.
4. Invite people to your page
Facebook will encourage you to invite people to view and like your page.
To begin with, like your own page (just select the Like button). You can also invite your friends to the page, which is a good way to start making people aware of your Facebook presence.
You can also experiment with Facebook's audience targeting functions. To do this, select Settings > Preferred Page Audience. (There are also lots of other options to explore in this area.)
Once you've created a page for your business, try and sign in at least once a day. The more you post to your page, the more likely other people are to discover and engage with it.
When people do leave messages, it's important to respond, so other potential customers can see that your Facebook page is more than a token presence.
Know what you're trying to achieve
Before you start spending masses of time on Facebook, think about what you want from it and how much time you can give to it:
Being focused on a particular marketing goal (or a set of goals) will help you build a community of relevant Facebook members who are happy to publicly declare themselves fans of your business.
('Fans' is another way to describe people who choose to 'Like' your page on Facebook.)
Make the most of your page
It's impossible for us to cover all the possibilities of using Facebook here – particularly as they add new features regularly.
The best way to proceed is to get the basics right, then try different approaches to determine what works well for you.
Reward the people who like your page
Some Facebook business pages simply facilitate regular discussion. Others go for bursts of activity by running competitions or making special offers as a reward for fan loyalty.
Facebook enables you to define and promote offers to your fans, so you can reward the people who have indicated they like your business.
Consider promoting your page
Your Facebook page gives you an extra opportunity to get listed on search engines such as Google. Think what someone would type into a search engine if they were looking for your product or service and use these key words and phrases in your headings and content.
You can also engage with Facebook users on the fan pages of related businesses and organisations. Join other communities and comment on their pages. If you can establish your credibility, people will trace you back to your own fan page.
Facebook also allows you to invest money to promote your page and reach a wider audience. You don't need to invest a lot of money to get started, but it does take time to fine-tune your ad targeting to actually see a return on the money you spend.
Set up a detailed and accurate business page which features relevant keywords, then reap the rewards of being discovered by search engines.

The "function header" is portion of the function definition. It denotes,
• Function's return type: It is defined the data type of the value. For example: void, int, float, etc.
• Function name: It is defined the descriptive name of the function.
• Function argument list: It is defined the arguments into a function.
The "function call" is a statement to execute a function. It denotes,
• Function name and followed by a set of parentheses
• End with semicolon
For example:
void calcTotal( ) Function header
calcTotal( );Function call
So, given statement, " calcTotal ( );" is a function call.

Become addicted to constant and never-ending self improvement.
Anthony D'Angelo
Source: The College Blue Book
Contributed by: Zaady
Your mind is like a parachute. It only works if it is open.
Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow.
Reality doesn't bite, rather our perception of reality bites.
Never let your persistence and passion turn into stubbornness and ignorance.
Transcend political correctness and strive for human righteousness.
The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible.
The rules have changed. True power is held by the person who possesses the largest bookshelf, not gun cabinet or wallet.

text: Yesterdays game has just summed up Boros season of bad luck and bad play and poor decisions or late decisions from managment.1. The portsmouth goal was off side..how anyone can say that Nuggent was not interfering with play when Couch took his shot I will never know. However saying that we constantly invite our back 5 to be underpressure by not holding the ball further up the field....2. Bates sending off...this was just stupid and naive from an immature squad which has not played to a EPL standard all season3. Alves Miss at the end..my god it was harder for him to missthan for him to score...he has constantly done this all season and hence we are in the position we are...should we call him Macarone 2..another fing failure in the boro foward line4. GS saying fans being disrespectful....please give us something to respect your football team for and we will..one good result in the season does not do that..!!

Random sampling of paid Medicare claims has been a legally acceptable approach for investigating suspicious billing practices by health care providers (e.g. physicians, hospitals, medical equipment and supplies providers, etc.) since 1986. A population of payments made to a given provider during a given time frame is isolated and a probability sample selected for investigation. For each claim or claim detail line, the overpayment is defined to be the amount paid minus the amount that should have been paid, given all evidence collected by the investigator. Current procedures stipulate that, using the probability sample's observed overpayments, a 90% lower confidence bound for the total overpayment over the entire population is to be used as a recoupment demand to the provider. It is not unusual for these recoupment demands to exceed a million dollars. It is also not unusual for the statistical methods used in sampling and calculating the recoupment demand to be challenged in court.
Though it is quite conservative in most settings, for certain types of overpayment populations the standard method for computing a lower confidence bound on the population total, based on the Central Limit Theorem, can fail badly even at relatively large sample sizes. Here, we develop "nonparametric sampling" inferential methods using simple random samples and the hypergeometric distribution, and study their performance on four real payment populations. These new methods are found to provide more than the nominal coverage probability for lower confidence bounds regardless of sample size, and to be surprisingly efficient relative to the Central Limit Theorem bounds in settings where overpayments are essentially all-or-nothing and where the payment population is relatively homogeneous and well separated from zero. The new methods are especially well-suited for sampling payment populations for providers of motorized wheelchairs, which at the time of this article's submission was a national crisis. Extensions to stratified random samples and to settings where there are frequent partial overpayments are discussed.

I know this is old…but with last week being a holiday weekend, I'm not sure this got as much play as it should have over the local airwaves and online. But, during the Thanksgiving special last week in New York, NBC's "Today Show" host Matt Lauer was teasing last week's Bruins-Red Wings game.
Whether it was because of a teleprompter or his own error, he called the Bruins the "Boston Brewers." (video after the jump)
Sure, beer is good in the city, but come on. Lauer used to work for ESPN. He used to work in Boston!

What's The Difference Between a Pale Ale and an IPA?
If you're new to the beer world you may wonder what the difference between two beers are, especially if they are similar. So what makes a pale ale and an IPA different?
If you're new to the beer world you may wonder what the difference between two beers are, especially if they are similar. So what makes a pale ale and an IPA different?
Picture this: You had a killer day at work. By the way, when I say 'killer' I mean 'bad'. Moving on: You had a killer day at work and decide you need more than a pint and conversation at your local pub. So, while cruising home you decide to stop by your local 'beer and relaxation' joint. You know, the kind that offers a nurse, micro brew and a tub?
It's almost the weekend, which is my favorite time to crack open a can of...well, if I'm honest, these days it's usually PBR. Times are tough, but not as tough as they probably were before this day in 1935, when the Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company delivered it's first batch of 2,000 cans of Krueger's Finest Beer and Cream Ale to one of my favorite cities in America: the dirty river city of Richmond, VA.
Know when to say, 'I'll have another."
I want to start by saying, is this how kids party now-a-days? When I was in my 20's, hanging with chicks happened but they never looked like this, ever! Sure, they were pretty but were always fully clothed and certainly not hanging out doing shots in their bikini's like: 'Hey, let's hammered while we're half naked'.
It does not take the well trained nose of a beer aficionado to determine if a beer has gone bad or not. No sir; upscale brew connoisseur and backwoods drunkards alike know that there is only one word to describe the putrid scent of beer gone rotten – and that is "skunk."
One thing I have never been able to wrap my head is around is beer pong. Bare with me: I get how the game is played and all that jazz, but it's the cleanliness of the game that makes me want to yack, honestly. Throw ball at cup, ball misses hits the floor, new person grabs ball, soak ball in cup of water and repeat. Seriously, how dirty is that? But I digress cause there's always an exception to the rule.
Since high-quality, legit Root Beer is made through a fermentation process almost identical to the one used to brew regular beer, we've always been a little miffed that it doesn't actually contain any alcohol. Our booze motto is: "if it could, it should," even though we've found exceptions -- "Gin Milk" turned out to be pretty disgusting, who knew? Thanks to Sprecher Brew though, all of that is about to change.
For centuries, everyone from physicians to brewers have used flavor wheels as a means of breaking down the many varieties of aromas and flavors of a particular substance or beverage. A new book includes a consumer-friendly version of a flavor wheel just for beer drinkers.
We've always been under the impression that people drink beer because it's awesome, but a new article suggests that hops addiction may actually be a real thing. Someone should tell these "scientists" that buzz-kills are rude.
If you can sue McDonald's because your coffee was "Too Hot" and didn't know any better, I guess you can sue Beer Companies because their product "made you commit a crime" right? That's what's happening in Idaho as a group of 5 inmates are suing beer and wine companies around the US saying their product made them "do it."
Should you be allowed to spend money when you're super drunk? There are limitations for driving a car and getting on to an air plane, so why not spending your cash?

They are among television's first and most enduring BFFs – and for more than four decades, Valerie Harper has considered Mary Tyler Moore "a great girlfriend" in real life as well.
Now one of Hollywood's longest-standing bonds is bringing comfort and support to Harper as she faces terminal brain cancer.
"I'm absolutely devastated by this news," says Moore, 76, who herself underwent surgery in 2011 for a benign tumor in the protective membrane around the brain – the same spot where Harper's malignant cancer cells are located.
"Valerie has given so much joy, laughter and love to the world," says Moore. "I join her fans and send much love and positive thoughts to her and her family during this difficult time."
One day before going public with her diagnosis in PEOPLE, Harper called her costar from the show Mary Tyler Moore.
After small talk, "She said, 'What's up?'" recalls Harper, 73. "I said, 'It's incurable cancer.' She said, 'Val, I'm so sorry.'"
Both showbiz veterans have endured their share of personal challenges through the years, including Moore's public battle with diabetes and the untimely deaths of her sister and son.
"In one of her books she said, 'At every funeral of my family, Val was at my side," says Harper. "It's true. I love her."
And Moore continues to share support and advice with her dear friend.
Before ending their phone call, "Mary said, 'One day at a time,'" says Harper. "That's how we've got to live our lives. That's the best we can do."

Hey guys,
Since I am pretty new to WP and the whole stuff i ran into a problem.
I am using the pretty-well known "Lightword" Theme. And today i've upgraded to the newest version. Now possible to add/edit the menu items through the theme-settings. Although I like this very much I am not able to display more than one additional menu-item.
When I go to "wp-admin/nav-menus.php" I am able to select in a box on the left-side a menu which i created before. But I am only able to select one. So what can I do to show up all created menus?
Thanks for your help

There is an increasing concern that the current management practices for many coastal regions are unsustainable. Very few countries have planned to deal with the exacerbation of environmental decline in the face of sea level rise. It is therefore necessary to assess socioeconomic and environmental impacts of sea level rises to better understand the vulnerability of coastal zones, as part of devising adaptive and integrated management principles. This paper presents a systematic approach by which relevant stakeholders can be actively engaged in prioritising flood impact issues and deriving information for quantification of impacts for adaptation measures and demonstrates the approach through implementation in the Gippsland coastal region. As outcomes of the project, we have identified key issues of concern for this region for flood impacts and constructed synthetic response functions for quantification of impacts of floods on some of the key issues in the region. The analysis also showed that stakeholders consider that some of the issues are not likely to be significantly affected by floods and thus may not require adaptation measures. The analysis did not provide high agreement on some issues. Different approaches are required to assess the importance of these issues and to establish impact response functions for them.

text: The activity of a radioactive sample is the number of nuclear disintegrations per second, which is equal to the first-order rate constant times the number of radioactive nuclei present. The fundamental unit of radioactivity is the curie (Ci), where 1 Ci corresponds to exactly 3.70 × 1010 disintegrations per second. This decay rate is equivalent to that of 1 g of radium-226. Calculate the rate constant and half-life for the radium decay. Starting with 1.0 g of the radium sample, what is the activity after 500 yr? The molar mass of Ra-226 is 226.03 g/mol.

I have two desktop computers a laptop and a smartphone. All of them connect perfectly to my router (WRT54GL with Tomato firmware), but randomly (once a week maybe) something odd happens:
For over an hour or so one of the desktop computers (Windows 7 Pro x64) will just refuse to connect properly to the router. Only that computer and only to that network. I can connect all the other machines to the router perfectly and I can connect properly to other networks with that machine. What I mean by "not being able to connect properly" I mean that the OS will just tell me "not able to connect to.." or that it will connect but then say that it has no Internet access or it connects but will then take minutes to load any website, even the router web interface.
I've tried to change from WPA2 to WEP and back to WPA2, I've tried different network adapters (one internal PCI card and one USB external card), removing networks from Windows and adding again... without making any difference. It works for some days but at the end, it ends happening at some time.
I just have no clue on what could be going on here. I first thought it was the network adapter, then the router, then Windows...

About Simon Parnell
I am British, and now the "wrong" side of 50 years old, I am married and have 3 children. I started working in a design studio in the early 80's back in the days of Cow Gum, Rotring Pens and Scalpels. I moved on to using Macs in about 1989 (way back when 40MB Hard Drives were BIG and 8MB RAM was a top end spec, System 6.0.3 was the cutting edge and the IIcx I worked on set me back about £5000... eek!). Since then I have worked on pretty much every generation of Macintosh and every Mac OS Apple have released. I have done design and pre-press work with a wide variety of "DTP" applications old, new, well known and obscure. I have a fascination with finding cheaper alternatives to the "big guns" so DTP can be accessible to everybody! For the last 15 years I have worked in a small print works close to my home doing design and pre-press work.

Steve is a computer geek, and he has been for many years. He has studied computer science for 15 years, with a college degree in computer science, a backchelor degree in computer with a minor in mathematics, and a Master degree in computer science. In high school he was initiated to computer on an Apple II, then his parents bought him a Commodore 64, then a Mac Plus. But in computer science, DOS and Windows PC were used mostly, so he switched to the dark side for a while. In 2000 he began doing some photography, then discovered iPhoto which make him come back to the Macintosh in 2002. Since, he became a Mac geek again and he sure won't turn back to the PC.

January Jones
January Jones in Goldsign Frontier Cropped Skinny Jeans in Sakura
January Jones was snapped eating an In-n-Out Burger before heading into do some grocery shopping at Gelson's in Los Feliz, California.
January wore a pair of Goldsign Frontier cropped skinny jeans in Sakura with a drappy blouse, fedora, and black oxfords. The print of the jeans is similar to pin stripes and I like how she added some menswear inspired accessories which give this outfit a great masculine edge. I do like that the blouse adds a softer touch to the look. You can buy Goldsign online from Shopbop.com.
January Jones in MiH The Marrakesh Jeans in French Blue
January Jones was photographed taking her son to get his hair cut. She wore a pair of MiH The Marrakesh jeans in French Blue with a patterned blouse and heels.
We used to see January out in MiH all the time, but as of late, she's been mixing it up with different brands. It is nice to see her wearing these jeans, since I think this is one of the most flattering styles on her and she always manages to make it work for her. You can buy these jeans online from MiH for $209.
January Jones in Goldsign Thrill Straight Leg Jeans in Nikki
January Jones was snapped while heading into Milk Studios in LA. She wore a pair of Goldsign Thrill straight leg jeans in Nikki with a star sweater and booties.
We've been seeing January in a lot of different styles and brands lately, but I have to say, I think this is my favorite cut on her. She can pull off a high waist and slightly cropped silhouette really well and it's a very flattering style on her. You can buy Goldsign jeans online from Shopbop.com.
January Jones in Isabel Marant for H&M Tie Dye Skinny Jeans
January Jones was snapped while posing for photographers at the launch party of Isabel Marant for H&M. She wore a pair of the tie dye skinny jeans and a matching lace blouse, both from the new collection.
One thing that I love about Isabel Marant's pieces is the attention to detail, like the seaming on the knees, which adds a subtle moto-style effect. Click here to view the look books from the Men's and Women's collections. Are you planning on buying anything from this collaboration?

The Searchable Big Book of Library Grant Money (CD-ROM)The Taft Group for ALA
CD-ROM Published: 27/06/1997
- Not available
Customized for library grant-seekers, this CD-ROM offers a powerful electronic tool for searching more than 2000 profiles of library-friendly corporate and foundation givers. Like the print series "Big Book of Library Grant Money" (1996), published by ALA Editions, it draws on the detailed Gale/Taft funding databases. It is pre-screened to contain only those funders that have either given to libraries recently or reported that they would be receptive to library grant proposals. A licensed subset of Gale/Taft's "Prospector's Choice" database for general grant-seeking, it provides the same user-friendly search engine, same profiles, same Windows views, same query and indexing systems, same Gale customer support. The difference: library grant-seekers pay only for the subset of library givers, saving roughly half the price of the full "Prospector's Choice" data set. Searches can be made by (or by combinations of) grantmaker location, company headquarters, state, location of grant recipient, grant type, and non-monetary type or recipient type. Within each record, search fields include contact information, financial summary, contribution summary, officers and directors, application information, grants analysis, recent grants, and more. An "Alma Mater Index" provides background data on individuals as a further search point. The technical requirements are: 80386 or higher IBM-compatible PC (80486DX recommended); Windows 3.1, 3.11 or '95; SVGA graphics card and monitor; 4 megabytes RAM (8 recommended); 5 megabyte free hard disk space; ISO 9660 CD-ROM player (double speed or faster recommended); Microsoft CD-ROM extensions (MSCDEX) 2.2 or higher (standard with most CD-ROM drives); Windows compatible mouse or pointing device.

text: Treatment for this disorder is challenging, especially if the delusion is long lasting. Antipsychotic medications can be helpful, but delusions sometimes do not get better with pharmacological treatment. Since patients may not believe they have a mental disorder, they may refuse all treatment, including psychotherapy. However, support, reassurance, and pointing out the difference between the symptoms and reality can all be helpful if the person is willing to meet with a therapist. Educating the family about how to respond to the person's needs can be useful.

text: I have never been good at keeping a diary. The thick ‐ lockable - keep all your secrets safe ‐ pour your heart out tomes of pre-pubescence, never made it past the first few days. Even now at the beginning of a potentially good trip away, the well intentioned - document everything excitement attached to favourite pen and a new, velvety Moleskine soon deteriorates into incoherent scribbled notes and snatched drawings. So the whole concept of blogging and me is flawed from the start. In addition, it must be said, never have I been much good at writing about the doing when I'm in the midst of the doing. Am usually so full on doing, there is absolutely no space available to take a step back for document or comment. And so it has been. 2007 has been an intensive year and the last few months, particularly so. Cloth & Culture Now has just opened at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, University of East Anglia, Norwich. In this latest massive project from Lesley Millar 35 artists from 6 countries were selected for the project. We were all asked to write the title in our own language / handwriting and the resulting strong graphic leads into this exhibition. Entrance to Cloth & Culture Now In Concealed ‐ Discovered ‐ Revealed (display of my work at V&A) the woven tapestries and stone drawings were two parallel, yet separate lines of enquiry. For Cloth & Culture Now I proposed a body of four works, which would draw together and expand this dialogue through continuing exploration of qualities of materiality. Heavily influenced by my research into the V&A collections, I have become fascinated by the language of individual mark with regard to textile language.The four works, each 2m square, in linen, lead, stone and digital image, help me to think about hard/soft, light/heavy, rigidity/flexibility, tangible/intangible - the very nature of weaving/textile/fabric. Call and Response: Linen Lead Stone Shadow, Sue Lawty 2008 The exhibition continues at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts until 1 June. It then travels to The Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester in the autumn before touring to participating countries through 2009. The website www.clothandculturenow.com is packed full of information about education events, the book, the project and the artists.

Ready in 25 minutes
If you're of the school that believes chocolate chip cookies should be soft and chewy, you'll love this recipe. These superb cookies are made with lots of butter and a combination of white and brown sugars to produce a rich and chewy cookie with caramelized edges. The recipe also has more brown sugar than white sugar which gives the cookies a more caramel flavor. The cookie dough is easy to work with -- however, you may need to chill the dough before baking as the dough has a tendency to sometimes be soft because of all the butter.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F with oven rack in center position. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicon baking pads, e.g., Silpad, if desired (*see note); set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
In bowl of standing mixer fitted with paddle attachment (or an electric mixer, or by hand), beat butter at medium-high speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Add granulated and brown sugars and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes (or 5 to 6 minutes by hand), stopping to scrape down bowl as necessary. Reduce speed to medium-low and add in eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition until well incorporated. Add vanilla and beat until incorporated. Reduce speed to lowest setting (or gently stir by hand); gradually add in dry ingredients, scraping down bowl as necessary, and beating until just incorporated; don't overmix. Fold in chocolate chips. (If you find that the dough is very soft, cover and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.)
Using one heaping tablespoon of batter per cookie, drop cookies 2-inches apart, in staggered rows of 3-2-3-2-3 (**see note), on ungreased or prepared baking sheets. Place one baking sheet at a time onto center rack of preheated 350 degree F oven. Bake until cookies are golden around the edges, still have pale tops, and are soft in the center, about 8 to 10 minutes. (Do not overbake! They will firm up more during cooling.) Remove from oven, and let cool on baking sheet for at least two minutes before transferring to wire rack to cool completely. If you used parchment paper, remove baking sheet from oven and immediately slide cookies on parchment directly onto cooling racks. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Cookies freeze well.
Makes about 3 dozen.
*Note: Parchment paper or silicon baking pads are not a necessity but does make for easy cookie removal and cleanup.
**Note: By staggering the rows of cookie batter, it's easy to fit 13 cookies (2-inches apart) on a single large cookie sheet.
Make Ahead Note:
You can freeze this dough. If you want to have ready-to-bake cookies, form the dough into balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet and place in the freezer until the dough is frozen firm. Then, place frozen cookie dough in a plastic bag, seal, and keep frozen until ready to bake. When baking, simply place the frozen balls of dough on a baking sheet and bake as directed -- expect the frozen cookies to take a few minutes longer to bake than normal.
Keep the chocolate chips in the freezer so that they are extremely cold when it is time to bake the cookies. This helps to keep the cookies from spreading too much while baking.

Department of Veterans Affairs:
Available Data Not Sufficiently Reliable to Describe Use of Consulting Services
GAO-13-714R: Published: Jul 30, 2013. Publicly Released: Jul 30, 2013.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-4841
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
What GAO Found
Because data were not readily available to identify how the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) uses consulting services and what is known about their costs, this report discusses the limitations on data concerning consulting services and provides information on some of the uses of consultant contracts. Two primary factors limited GAO's ability to identify a list of consulting contracts that was sufficiently accurate and complete for identifying the types and costs of consulting services used by VA. First, there is no consistently used definition for consultant or consulting services across VA that GAO could apply for our intended purposes. Second, there are data limitations associated with identifying consulting services at VA. Since there is no means for contracting officers to track obligations for consulting services in the Federal Procurement Data System-New Generation, GAO used North American Industrial Classification Codes (NAICS) to identify contracts that could be for consulting. However, GAO could not use the NAICS codes to consistently identify consulting contracts because a single NAICS code can be used to classify both consulting and nonconsulting services and VA contracting officers sometimes reported that they had applied the wrong NAICS code to contracts. Nevertheless, VA offices were able to provide information on how they used consulting services and identified contracts among those in our sample that they considered to be consulting services. For contracts that VA officials considered to be for consulting, VA procured a variety of services, including program evaluations, engineering and support services, and gathering data to support decision making.
Why GAO Did This Study
VA is one of the U.S. government's largest agencies and provides services to service members, veterans, their dependents, and survivors. The House Committee on Veterans' Affairs, Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations requested that GAO assess how VA has used consulting services and what is known about the costs of these services. GAO identified contracts in the federal government's procurement information system and selected contracts to discuss with VA offices to understand how VA uses consulting services and to determine if officials considered these contracts to be for consulting.
What GAO Recommends
GAO is not making any recommendations. VA provided written, including technical comments, in response to a draft of this report. VA generally concurred with our findings but disagreed that data were unreliable. Based on our analyses, we maintain that data was not sufficiently reliable for our purposes.

Weak Public Transit – Except for the light rail which is great, the public transit isn't very reliable (the buses take FOREVER) and it's very hard to get out of the university/downtown Tempe/downtown Phoenix without a car. The immediate area around the university is great for walking and biking, but there are other nice areas only reachable by car. And Lightrail does not reach them nearly enough. Car parking is expensive, but after your first year or two a must.Campus transport=great and easy. Bike is all you need, maybe use the on campus shuttles.Local=mostly good, light rail will get you to most of the places college students like to go.Beyond local=you need a car. No way around it.
Strong School Spirit, Good Facilities – I'm not really a hardcore sports person, but the school sports experience is fun to participate in from my point of view. The fields and facilities are nice, school spirit is pretty high, football games are kind of a big deal and you can hear the cheering from a significant distance away. The weather when not super hot is absolutely great for being out and about in, and therefore there's a lot of great outdoor areas with shade and cool grass.
Merit as Well as Need Based Opportunities – ASU gives out a lot of scholarship money, including merit based scholarships which are often hard to come by these days. The application for merit based awards is automatic and very easy. For need-based scholarships, all you have to do is fill out the FAFSA
Campus Quality:
Certainly Policed – There are often cops around at night, and CA's around during the day. It is definitely easy to get away with drinking etc. if you are smart about it and dont cause commotion, though
Certainly Policed – There are often cops around at night, and CA's around during the day. It is definitely easy to get away with drinking etc. if you are smart about it and dont cause commotion, though
Party Scene:
I am under 21, but I've heard that Mill is wonderful for those that can go to bars. ASU is a typical party school, and there are MANY opportunities to party whether you are in Greek Life or not. AND girls never have to pay. :)
Campus Food:
It Is Just Normal – The dining halls are typical, food is not great but there are many different options for students. The Barrett Honors dining hall is much better than the others, but still not absolutely amazing. Places around campus are not healthy at all, but there are lots of options. Examples are Jimmy Johns, McDonalds, Whataburger, bars/grills on Mill Ave, Chipotle, etc.
Not Too Bad – I received a decent scholarship and everything was pretty smooth. Wish there were a few more scholarships available to out of state students though.
Guys & Girls:
Hot Girls Everywhere – I will see the pretty ladies in all directions at all times of day. Went above all expectations.
Off-Campus Dining:
Decent Variety – There are definitely plenty of places to eat off-campus, but there are not a ton that amazing. Oregano's is always good and I enjoy going to Devil's Advocate for watching football and eating wings.
Easy to Get the Help I Needed – I received a scholarship when I applied to ASU and they automatically showed the grants and loans I was eligible for online in the finances section of my personal ASU page. Any time I go to the financial aid office with questions they are always helpful and eager to find ways for me to pay for school.
Campus Food:
Some Options, but Not as Diverse as They Could Be – Dining options on campus have improved over the past couple years. A sit down restaurant, Engrained, was opened upstairs at the Memorial Union. In addition to the rank and file fast food places, the dining halls offer the ordinary as well, except 1 day a week they devote to vegetarian options. There are several coffee places around campus, e squared one of the few that is local (something other than Starbucks). ASU offers M&G dollars that is applied like a debit card, they are usable anywhere on campus and even some places off campus; this is the best meal plan option as it offers the most flexibility.
Its great! We have the light rail, we have our own student bus transportation called Orbit, we have cabs, or the public bus. The only thing is that campus parking is pretty expensive and crowded at times. Some parking lots are very far away from campus.
Party Scene:
Night Life – AWESOME! There are plenty of local bars, cab companies are always lingering around for business, and night clubs are very close to campus. There is a street called Mill Ave. From Mill Ave and University moving north bound, up until about 1st Street, you have nothing but a strip of stores, small business, and bars. There's always something to do! For those who don't like to drink, activities on campus are always happening, too.
Transborder Latina/O Chicana/O Studies – Not only do you get to learn more about Latinos in America and around the world, you get to learn about their health disparities, standard of living, and how we can improve all things for them. We also learn about other minorities in America and all of our data is compared. You get to learn a lot about all races around the world that reside here in the US.
Campus Quality:
A Lot to Do in a Small Area – From movie theaters to shopping malls to various artistic venues, in addition to a plethora of campus activities, you will hardly lack things to do during your time here on campus.
Many Cultures Blending Together – While I can't speak for sexual orientation, I've seen many students from many different ethnic and religious backgrounds around campus. It's quite impressive how many people are brought to this campus and how everything seems to go together quite well.
Campus Quality:
Tempe Is Prime Location for Entertainment – The ASU main campus is located in the heart of Tempe, its where all the action is at. It is unique in the sense that from the main campus, you have access to the best of what AZ has to offer (apart from the fantastic nature of the north). From Tempe, you can head down to Mill Avenue, get a few drinks, relax, and from there you can head to downtown phoenix (just 20 minutes away) to watch sports games or musical performances.
Overall Experience:
Works With Every Niche – ASU offers students a chance to experiment with a very diverse amount of aspects of "the college life". It is was to find a party, easy to find a hole in the wall to study, and it is very easy to put yourself in situations to meet new people.
Shuttles Are Convenient – Shuttles arrive every 30 minutes and are inter-campus shuttles. If you are not shuttling between the main two campuses (Tempe, and Downtown Phoenix) then you may end up waiting awhile on the bus.
Drug Safety:
Drinking Is More Popular – drug scene is not often to ses, but drinking is popular, especially during weekends.
Campus Food:
OK but Not Diverse – It is OK if you do not eat on campus every meal. But if you often eat on campus, you will get tired of the food due to lack of options
Health & Safety:
Very Safe – I feel very safe on campus. If some threat appears, we will receive texts from ASU alerts and keep indoors.
network speed is quick most often, but sometimes My ASU is down because it is too crowded.
Network Reliability and Speed – The network at ASU is reliable for the most part, but speed is an occasional issue. During the year, video streaming is relatively slow, and watching tv or youtube videos online is a pain because there is almost always excessive buffering.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Arizona State is like no other university in the country. With a large, vibrant, and exciting student body that truly makes the campus unique, there is no arguing that ASU is by any means a boring place to be for the next four years of your life. As soon as you step onto ASU's campus, you will feel the immense amount of positive and exciting energy that gives you sense of belonging. Even though there are so many students around campus, you will be sure to find a niche to call your own. College is the time to find yourself and truly learn who you are as you prepare for the real world. ASU provides the perfect environment to challenge you to make "adult" decisions, and you won't always, but by the end of it all, you will mature into a dedicated individual!
Even though students will struggle with all-nighters, sports practice, parking tickets, and trying to recover from a great night, many of them couldn't ask for anything else. There will be times that you are drowning in homework and studying, but by the end of it all, you will look back and laugh. Your peers help you get through the tough times and make those social outings even more fun. ASU knows how to party hard, but when it comes to crunch time, we pull it off well. The kids here know how to have a great time, the nightlife and social settings are extremely fun, the academics are quite challenging—especially when you apply yourself and take it seriously—but most importantly, students will leave prepared for post-graduation and taking on the world. ASU is a fantastic place to meet new people and a great way to experience life in the great southwest. But don't take my word for it—come on out and experience it for yourself!

Ashlesha (nakshatra)
Ashlesha (Sanskrit: आश्लेषा or Āśleṣā) is the 9th of the 27 nakshatras in Hindu astrology. Ashlesha is also known as the Clinging Star or Nāga.[1] It is known as the Hydra. It extends from 16:40 to 30:00 Cancri.[2]
The planetary lord is Mercury or Budha. Its presiding deities are the Nāgas.[3] The nakshatra's symbol is a coiled serpent. It is a trikshna or sharp nakshatra. Its animal symbol is the male cat.[4] The Hindu gods Lakshmana and Shatrughna, brothers of Rama, were born under this Nakshatra
Like its symbol, the Nāga or coiled serpent, people of this nakshatra are said to have confused emotions and inherent insecurities with the result that no matter how close you are to them, they will attack you to protect themselves. On the other hand, Ashlesha natives are said to have very good leadership skills, to be apt at managing even a large army, and to be diplomatic and cordial by nature.
This a gand mool nakshtra and is considered one of the most inauspicious moon signs to be born in.
Mahatma Gandhi and Ayilyam Thirunal of Travancore had the moon in this nakshatra, while Jawahar Lal nehru had this rising on his ascendant.

I am running the WP install on XAMPP, and wondered if that was the issue, but since I can edit items as Admin, I think there is some permission issues. The posts I am seeking to edit as Author are indeed posts that below to the Author I am logged in as.
Any advice would help.

John Kerry and George W Bush are Related
It puts things in perspective, doesn't it?
It seems that over 400 years ago, Edmund Reade and Elizabeth Cooke laid the ground work for at least 2 American presidents. John Kerry and good old George W are not as different as they may seem. Both went to Yale, both were in the Skull and Bones secret society, and now we find out, both share the roots in the same family tree. Perhaps one day we could do a dna test on both to find out if they are truly related. As a leader in genetics research, Clay Siegall has been a leader in genetics for the research and development of drugs for cancer therapies.
georg busch is a common misspelling of George W Bush
jon kery is a common misspelling of John Kerry

With Aqib Talib practicing as a New England Patriot for the first time on Wednesday the Pats have taken a huge step towards getting their new acquisition on the playing field. Since that time is just about here several folks from within the Patriots organization have recently spoken out about what the cornerback can bring to the team and how the Pats can incorporate Talib into the defense. Head coach Bill Belichick has basically only talked about how the Patriots have been working towards catching Talib up."I'm glad to have him," Belichick said. "We're working with him. I'm sure he'll work hard to get caught up, and we'll see where it goes."Try to work with him on an individual basis, work with him in terms of terminology, film study."Nothing new from Belichick here. Bill has also dodged every question thrown his way regarding Talib's off-the-field issues. Linebacker Jerod Mayo, on the other hand, sympathized with Talib's past when asked on WEEI."Well to be honest with you, I'm not fam

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2010-07-05/Features and admins
This week's highlights
Featured articles
Thirteen articles were promoted to featured status:
- Plesiorycteropus, nominated by Ucucha, who described the creature as "Madagascar's most special mammal".
- Hoover Dam, nominated by Wehwalt and NortyNort, who said it "has taken hold of the American psyche in a way few other engineering works have." The 75th anniversary of its dedication is in September.
- Royal Gold Cup (Johnbod), about a major masterpiece of medieval metalwork in the British Museum, some 2 kg (more than 4 lbs) of solid gold, with spectacular enamel decoration.
- Chetco River (LittleMountain5), a small stream that cascades down the picturesque and geologically complex Klamath Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. Several months ago, this article was a four-paragraph stub with just two references.
- I. M. Pei (Scartol, with assistance by Awadewit and Elekhh), on the Chinese-American architect who is often referred to as a master of modern architecture.
- Bombing of Yawata (June 1944) (Nick-D), on the first raid conducted by land-based bombers against Japan during World War II.
- USS Indiana (BB-1) (Yoenit), the first "real" US battleship, and like the previous entry, another article just out of the Milhist A-class review.
- Banksia violacea (Casliber), a small shrub or tree from Western Australia.
- The Political Cesspool (Stonemason89), a weekly right-wing American talk-radio show.
- Norton Priory (Peter I. Vardy), an historic site in Norton, Runcorn, Cheshire, England, dating from the 12th to the 16th centuries.
- School Rumble (Jinnai), a Japanese Shōnen manga.
- CFM International CFM56 (SidewinderX), an aircraft engine with "a rather interesting history".
- GRB 970228 (Cryptic C62), a highly luminous flash of gamma rays that struck the Earth for 80 seconds in 1997. The Signpost was surprised to see a discussion involving complex mathematical equations on the review page.
Choice of the week: The Signpost asked reviewer/nominator Casliber for his number-one choice among these FA promotions. He picked Royal Gold Cup: "It came together very nicely, and is such an interesting one to read. This is the first nomination to qualify for the Wikipedia:GLAM/British Museum's joint Featured Article Prize, and we look forward to seeing more of these." (See Signpost coverage of the British Museum collaboration).
Four featured articles were demoted:
Featured lists
Eight lists were promoted to featured status:
- List of number-one singles from the 1970s (UK) (nominated by Rambo's Revenge)
- List of Madonna concert tours (Legolas)
- Hugo Award for Best Novelette (PresN) – The Hugo Awards are given every year by the World Science Fiction Society for the best science fiction or fantasy works and achievements of the previous year.
- Army of the Danube order of battle (auntiruth), a field army of the First French Republic.
- Paramore discography (Decodet), of the American alternative rock band.
- Pet Shop Boys discography (Mister sparky), of the English electronic/pop music duo.
- 2009 College Football All-America Team (TonyTheTiger)
- Minister of Transport and Communications (Norway) (Arsenikk)
Choice of the week: We asked Dabomb87, a director of the featured list process, for his personal choices. "My favorite was 2009 College Football All-America Team – I'm a fan of American football, and the extended lead makes this article interesting; as well, the references make it a valuable resource. Second for me was List of number-one singles from the 1970s (UK) – I had nostalgic memories of old cassette tapes in my parents' house reading through this list and seeing some of my favorite songs (ABBA, especially). Good supplementary text and images, and good use of color in the main table."
One list was demoted: List of popes (graphical)
Featured picturespromoted:
- Cypripedium acaule (author Sasata), in which reviewers liked the relationship between the two neighbouring flowers and the background; the image was brightened after reviewers' comments.
- Eastern Great Egret (author Noodle snacks), praised by reviewers for its resolution and depth of field.
- Paper autofluorescence (author Zephyris), a micrograph of tissue paper, illuminated by ultraviolet light. The image is a composite of nine images stitched together, captured through a blue filter to block direct illumination. The individual fibres are ~10 μm wide, a fraction of the width of human hair.
- Laughing Kookaburra, (author Noodle snacks), the subject described as "one weird bird" by a reviewer. The Signpost can confirm that these birds emit sounds akin to theatrical laughter.
- Baalbek Temple Complex (author Eusebius), a panoramic view of the Great Court of Baalbek temple complex in Lebanon (pictured below).
- CTA Control Tower 18 and loop junction, Chicago (author Dschwen).
- Portrait of Mark Rutte (author Nick van Ormondt, nom J Milburn).
- Big White Fog (author Works Progress Administration, restored by Jujutacular), a 1938 poster for the eponymous play.
Choice of the week: Raeky, a regular reviewer at featured picture candidates, told The Signpost, "My favorite was the panoramic view of the Great Court of Baalbek temple complex in Lebanon. Panoramas of this size, I believe, are a prime example of how photography makes an article come to life. This one allows the viewer to delve into an area in a way that a simple snapshot can't do." The image appears at the bottom of this page. Raeky has a helpful hint, too: "Readers might be interested in a feature that lets you easily navigate through these large images on almost any connection: interactive flash viewer."
Featured topics
Three topics were promoted:
- 2006 Pacific hurricane season, with 19 articles
- M-28 (Michigan highway), with four articles
- Bayern class battleships, with three articles
Today's featured articles
This week, among the highlights on the Main Page were those on the best, the biggest, and the greatest:
- Mariano Rivera, the Panamanian right-handed baseball pitcher, born 1969 and known for his the "all-time great" fastball pitch.
- Sirius, the binary star – the brightest in the night sky – of which Sirius A is twice as massive as the Sun.
- The South American Andean Condor, the largest flying land bird in the Western Hemisphere.
- History of the Grand Canyon area, which, as we know it, stretches back 10,500 years to the first evidence of a human presence in the area.
Picture of the day
Aside from the image above, the pictures of the day included:
- A close-up of Cortinarius archeri, a truffle-like species of mushroom.
- An 1881 editorial cartoon of Charles J. Guiteau, the lawyer who assassinated President James A. Garfield on 2 July 1881.
- A photochrom print of the USS Texas (1892), the first US Navy battleship.
- A panoramic shot of the skyline of Philadelphia.
- A close-up of the "Whirling Butterflies" cultivar of a Gaura lindheimeri plant, native to Texas and Louisiana.
No editors were granted admin status via the Requests for Adminship process.
I like the new format very much, and I appreciate all your excellent hard work, but I'm not sure I like the "choice of the week" paragraphs. Keep It Simple. There is already too much competitiveness on Wikipedia, and we don't need subjective commentary on why X's FA is better than Y's. -- Ssilvers (talk) 15:34, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for your kind words, Ssilvers. Concerning "subjective comment", I wanted to bring out the human element of these rich and competitive processes—the fact that real people have opinions there—as well as printing those interesting comments by nominators. The "Choices of the week" are clearly marked as opinions, and The Signpost has the journalistic capacity to give light to good-faith opinions. The message, I guess, is: hey, what do you, the reader, think? Go have a look at these excellent articles, lists, images, and see if you agree or disagree with those opinions.

I'd like to applaud the editors involved for the overhaul; introducing attribution, blurbs and critical commentary has made what used to be a dull, brief list into a must-read. Contrary to Ssilvers, I think an injection of a modicum of competitve spirit is a positive development, and the choices of the week will be understood by all to be somewhat subjective in any case. Commendations, all. Skomorokh 18:04, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
Great work, Tony! I especially enjoyed the sentence or two summarizing the new Featured Articles. However, I found myself clicking on the links to all the new Featured Pictures, and I really did like the format used until last week in which all of them were included. Perhaps the new format with only one featured picture is less cluttered, but I really enjoyed seeing all the new FPs on this page. They are all such beautiful images! Thanks again and keep up the good work! TFCforever (talk) 23:18, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
I also really like the brief attributed blurbs and critical commentary, especially when it's unintentional (and therefore hilarious) damning with faint praise. - BanyanTree 02:25, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
- Ta, but perhaps you'll email me or talk-page me as to which one has been thus damned? I thought the array of featured contect was superb. Tony (talk) 02:50, 8 July 2010 (UTC) Ah, Banyan says it's the "rather interesting" comment by the nominator that is quoted here. Tony (talk) 04:35, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
Love the modifications to this, though if I may ask, will the other featured areas (i.e. portals, topics, etc.) be included as well in future issues? Granted, that may make this more time-consuming, though those naturally have fewer or none in a week to note. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 15:39, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks to all who've said nice things here; and yes, they are only modifications to the structure that seresin has developed over the years. Portals and topics (and sounds) should be covered if there are any changes, and oops, there was movement in topics, I see now. I'd be inclined to shift the emphasis away from the main-page appearances (they've just had their day of glory) and to cover portals, topics and sounds. My glitch; it was all done in a hurry because of RL work deadline just before the SP deadline. I'm adding mention now, but I'd have delved more into them if I'd done this properly.

Could you please maintain the comment saying that no featured articles were delisted? I had to go and check, to make sure, because the report didn't say anything about FA delistings. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 11:10, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- It's up to User:seresin. But to be consistent, it means you'd have to say that for all categories of featured content in which there are no delistings in a a particular week—which is usually most in most weeks. I thought it could be the default not to mention if there have been none. But to tell you the truth, I neglected to check. I'll add a note now about FA demotions. Thx.
