I am a lifelong non-smoker... but this is asinine. Don't they have anything better to worry about?
__________________________________________________ _______________
Minnesota set to ban smoking ANYWHERE on county grounds (even inside cars in the parking lot)
By Daily Mail Reporter
Last updated at 11:27 AM on 21st February 2011
The most populous county in Minnesota is planning to prohibit smoking on any county property, even if smokers are in their own cars.
Lighting up is already banned inside the Hennepin County Government Center in Minneapolis but if new proposals are approved, smokers may be liable for fines on pavements outside and in vehicles parked on county grounds.
Board chairman Mike Opat said the new ban would tackle an ugly and disgusting habit that visits itself on everybody else.
Dying breed: A Minnesota county plans to ban smoking on grounds, even in smokers' cars
If passed, the ban would take effect from July 1 at county buildings, with further measures rolled out at libraries, county sites and county-leased properties over the subsequent months.
Jill Hamilton, who runs the Hennepin Couynty Healthworks programme, said smokers would not be sought out but redirected by security staff if spotted lighting up on prohibited ground.
The intent is not to punish anybody, it's to create a healthy environment, she told the Star Tribune.
Supporters of the plans believe it would reduce county employees' exposure to secondhand smoke as well as improving workplace productivity and creating a cleaner environment outside county buildings.
If we're able to pass this policy, it would help pave the way for other counties going through the same struggles and pave the way as an example, said Tera King, wellness analyst for the Healthworks programme.
It was reported earlier this month that several hospitals and medical firms are not considering job applications from smokers while the Hennepin County proposals seem aligned to a growing nationwide movement for smoking bans in public buildings.
But while the Hennepin County Board is taking a stand on public health issues, other state legislators want a smoking-ban for bars and restaurants to be repealed.
The plan to prohibit smoking on county property has also been questioned by Commissioner Jeff Johnson - a non-smoker who said legislation could be heavy-handed when smokers could simply walk across the road from county buildings.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Efficacy of a single intravenous dose of VAY736 in reducing the clinical disease activity in pemphigus vulgaris patinets. [ Time Frame: baseline, 12 weeks ]The effect of VAY736 on clinical disease activity will be measured by the change in Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI) between baseline and week 12. PDAI is an assessment of skin and mucosal disease activity by the Investigator. The score incorporates the number and size of lesions across multiple skin locations and the mucous membranes.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Number of patients with adverse events [ Time Frame: up to an average of 12 months ]Summarized statistics on adverse events will be reported under categories such as total adverse events, serious adverse events and death
- Change in Autoimmune Skin disease Intensity Score (ABSIS) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]The effect of VAY736 on the ABSIS score will be compared betwen baseline and Week 12. ABSIS is a quality and quantity-based score of skin and oral mucosal lesions, combining the extent of the affected body surface area, the quality of the lesion and the extent of oral mucosal involvement, including food-related pain and discomfort.
- Change in Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) [ Time Frame: baseline, 12 weeks ]The effect of VAY736 on the IGA of a patient's disease activity will compared between baseline and Week 12. The IGA score ranges from 0 (no sign of active disease) to 4 (Severe active disease)
- VAY736 serum concentration [ Time Frame: 0, 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 16, 20, 24 and approximately 52 weeks ]The concentration of VAY736 will be measured in the serum. Descriptive statistics will include area under the concentration curve, half-life and time to maximum concentration.

-- Focus on the Family gender issues and marriage analyst
-- Claims Satan is at the root of gay people's attractions: "Satan roams the earth like a lion, using sexual and relational brokenness to destroy individuals, families, churches, groups, businesses" Also: "Instead of taking dominion over the world, Adam and Eve gave control to the "prince of the power of the air," Satan. Scripture describes him as a liar and an accuser. Thus we are born into a world that is in conflict between Satan and God. Because he hates God, Satan also hates the image of God in humanity and seeks to destroy people. Men and women can produce new life – something Satan cannot do. He works in the world to destroy life, and attacks people's gender, identity and sexuality. He assaults marriage, families, and children with lies, destruction and accusations."
-- Claims transgender children need help for a "very treatable disorder"
-- Says of homosexuality: "Same-sex lusts, fantasies and sexual activity violate God's male-female design in a unique way. Instead of normalizing brokenness, calling homosexuality "good," and identifying people by their sexual attractions, those who follow Jesus are called to bring redemption, grace and transformation."
-- Says same-sex unions are "unreality": A society that attempts to erase male and female or to create new categories to stand next to male and female is living in unreality.
-- Equates fight against marriage equality with fight to end slavery: "We want to make a difference in the world around us. My sons and I have been reading about William Wilberforce, who set out to eliminate the slave trade in England — and then to eliminate slavery. He also wanted to change the moral character of English society — to model and teach healthy, virtuous living. That's what we want to do."
-- Uses skewed and discredited research to push the lie that gay men become gay because of sexual abuse
-- Says of Christians who are LGBT or who support equality: "To affirm homosexual and transgender identity and behavior is to ignore 5,000 years of Judeo-Christian consensus and teaching, and assault core features of what it means to be human."

In the past I've vehemently argued against using Ruby. My encounters with it had shown a shoddy VM, decent libraries but my greatest grievance was the lack of any clear standard. It was really just whatever Matz felt like, or at least that was my understanding. Others may correct me if I'm wrong.
Despite my distaste for Ruby I always sensed that at some point I would pick it up when it became clear that the language was stabilizing, the VM was ready for the big leagues and when I actually had some time to make sure my past encounters weren't just issues of my own ignorance (which I'm prone to as much as anyone else).
That said, I am picking up some Ruby now and am enjoying it. Unlike most these days, my primary interest wasn't in Rails/Merb or I guess what is now "Rails 3″ but rather _why's Shoes framework. I have long been irritated by GUI programming. In almost every language it feels incredibly… unwieldy (I think thats the word I want to use). It seemed as though no matter the language and how graceful it generally is to work with, there were always things that made its GUI toolkit interfaces ugly to work with.
Shoes on the other hand has been quite enjoyable. Its minimal and still has a ways to go but in a couple days I was able to learn enough Ruby and enough of how the Shoes framework works to write a pretty simple application to solve a long-standing issue that my mother has had with trying to copy her music to her MP3 player. She's not well suited to navigating multiple Windows Explorer windows and copy/pasting her way to victory. With that, I wrote a really simple Shoes app that basically shows two panes, the "all the music you have" pane and the "music thats on your MP3 player" pane. It only shows files not already on her MP3 player so you just click the file you want and it will "move" the file in the window to the other pane as well as actually copying the file.
If anyone is interested in this brain dead app, I'll post it later once I've attached all the license information for it, etc.

Hard-working Durand Johnson of Pitt lost for rest of the seasonJanuary 12, 2014 11:22 PM
Pitt redshirt sophomore forward Durand Johnson is out for the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament and torn meniscus in his right knee that occurred in the second half of the Panthers' 80-65 victory against Wake Forest Saturday at Petersen Events Center.
Johnson will have knee surgery sometime within the next week at UPMC South Side Hospital and the surgery will be performed by assistant team physician Dr. Robin West and Dr. Steve Rabuck.
He will then have a 9-12-month rehabilitation process.
Pitt coach Jamie Dixon said that while losing Johnson does hurt the team, he feels terrible for Johnson who he said has worked extremely hard in the past year on his game in order to become a better all-around player.
"We are thoroughly heartbroken for Durand," Dixon said. "With his passion for the game and outstanding work ethic, Durand has contributed significantly to our success. He has made so much improvement in all facets of his game this year. I expect that same passion and work ethic to help Durand return at 100 percent next season."
Johnson took a pass from Talib Zanna with 5:30 to play in the game and drove the right side of the lane and appeared to twist his knee awkwardly when he landed.
A foul was called on the play and Johnson, who scored 11 points and grabbed three rebounds, hit both free throws to give the Panthers a 73-54 lead, but he left the floor after the second free throw did not return to the game.
After the game, Dixon said he was unaware of Johnson's status but found out Sunday morning the bad news.
Johnson was the sixth man and a sharp shooter from the 3-point line who brought instant offense and energy off the bench.
The Panthers are versatile and have several players capable of playing a couple of positions. It is likely freshman Chris Jones will be beneficiary of Johnson's loss, but Dixon has other options to mix and match his lineups.
A key component to compensate for the loss of Johnson is senior Lamar Patterson, who is one of the most versatile players in Division I.
Patterson is capable of playing shooting guard or small forward when Dixon goes to a more traditional or bigger lineup.
Often when Patterson goes to power forward for a smaller lineup, Johnson would play small forward, but that role likely will go to Jones, or perhaps even Cam Wright. Dixon could put both James Robinson and Josh Newkirk out there at guard.
Dixon said Patterson's versatility is a big reason the Panthers can create tough matchups for other teams and now, with Johnson out, it gives him the ability and flexibility to continue to put balanced lineups on the floor.
"[The ability to play more than one position] is good for Lamar. He is smart enough to do it and it allows us some personnel flexibility," Dixon said. "The good thing is with all the sets we run, the plays we run, we can run for him at different spots. It does allow us to do some things offensively and the obvious concern is rebounding and defense when you go with that lineup.
"It has been good at times, it enables us to do some different things and we're hard to zone in pretty much any lineup. But when we put Lamar in there as another shooter, it gives us another guy to pass and shoot and makes us hard to guard.
"That versatility with Lamar allows us to play Chris and Josh and James in there at the same time with Lamar, and we can also go big with him as well."
Johnson, who Dixon has praised in recent days for working his way into becoming much more than just a great shooter, already has redshirted so he would need a medical waiver in order to be granted an extra season.
"Durand has played really good defense for us, much improved from last year and Chris can play pretty good defense and he is improving as well," Dixon said before the season-ending loss. "[Johnson] is obviously playing really well, he has been a big part of what we are doing and he has made as many improvements this year as much as anybody.
"He has become a good defender and good decision maker and those things are hard to change that quickly, but he has really done a good job in those areas."
In 16 games played off the bench this season, Johnson ranked fourth on the team in scoring (8.8 ppg.) and second in 3-pointers made (22).
He averaged 3 rebounds in 19.8 minutes per game and converted 33.8 percent (22 of 65) of his 3-point attempts, hit 85.3 percent (29 of 34) of his free-throw attempts and dished out 23 assists and finished with 14 steals.
He reached double figure scoring in eight games and hit at least one 3-pointer in 10 games.
Jones played only nine minutes Saturday and had three points and three rebounds but he has seen his playing time increase some in recent games.
He is averaging 2.6 points in 5.9 minutes per game, but with Johnson out of the mix those numbers likely will increase.

Théodore Rousseau was a key member of the Barbizon School of landscape painters, who worked in the forests of Fontainebleau to the south of Paris. This painting is typical of Rousseau in its documentation of the painter's sensational encounter with a forest scene, with the still waters of a pond the central focus. Rousseau observes nature closely, giving attention to the depiction of individual details and establishing a clear sense of its beauty.
Rousseau's landscapes are tied to contemporary shifts in the ways people related to nature and the landscape. We can see this elsewhere in the boom of French regional guidebooks for tourists and in the many topographical surveys from this time, which sought to make sense of the nation as a series of particular landscapes and regional cultures. In each case, a sense of one's self and nationhood was determined via movement through and perception of landscape.

I kind of live for weddings like this. Weddings that are the perfect combination of laid-back and whimsical, with a dash of DIY thrown in for good measure. Weddings that turn simple mason jars into chalkboard-infused cocktail carriers and BBQ and s'mores into the perfect wedding yumminess. It's a day that joins one darling duo with the perfect stylings of Sittin in a Tree Weddings and a whole lot of pretty captured by Mark Elkins Photography. See it all in the full gallery.
From the Bride… I wanted our wedding to be a perfect reflection of everything Chas and I are – laid back and fun- no stuffiness allowed! For us, this meant an outdoor wedding, barn reception, BBQ and s'mores! We had a pretty tight budget, but didn't want that to limit the possibilities for our wedding, so we took on a lot of DIY projects. Looking back, we might have taken on a few too many projects, but they all came together in the end to help create my dream wedding. I liked the projects so much I even opened my own Etsy shop after the wedding, so I could keep crafting!
The DIY crafts started from the very beginning- we designed, printed and assembled our wedding invitations ourselves. My mom sewed the bridesmaids' dresses, and even made me a coordinating one that I wore while getting ready! I made the belt for my dress and borrowed my sister's veil. My hubby Chas put all of our wedding signage together himself, and I painted and finished them. One of my wonderful bridesmaids helped make all of the chalkboard mason jar glasses. Our ceremony altar was built by my dad, and covered in pinwheels my sister and I made. We worked with the preacher to create a ceremony that we felt represented us and our relationship. It was truly a beautiful ceremony.
We incorporated a lot of DIY details for our reception, as well. I sewed our wedding cake topper and also refinished an antique desk that belonged to my late grandmother to use as our dessert table, which we then topped with some of our families' favorite desserts! We had BBQ for dinner at the reception, complete with a BBQ sauce bar with different sauces – my mom's homemade sauce, the delicious sauce from our favorite restaurant (Fox Bros BBQ in Atlanta) and a North Carolina style sauce to represent Chas' side of the family! Even our rehearsal dinner the night before was a low country boil to incorporate my Louisiana roots! We ended the evening with a s'mores station complete with a bonfire log and sparklers!
My favorite part of the day was our First Look before the ceremony. It was so nice to take a few minutes to see my man and catch my breath before the ceremony began!

RFA calls for use of circle hooks in striper fishing
I just came across this article at the RFA website. It was dated at the end of August, 2001.
<<The Recreational Fishing Alliance today called for the phase in of mandatory circle hooks for anglers using bait to target striped bass.
"We believe that enough study of this issue has been done that we can now begin to take the next step to implementation. The standards for what constitutes a circle hook and how to implement their use into regulations should be developed as soon as possible. This will not be easy and it will take time and careful consideration," said James Donofrio, Executive Director of the RFA.
Recent studies, such as the one conducted by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, show that using circle hooks instead of standard "J" hooks significantly reduces the release-mortality rate of striped bass.
Michael Doebley, Deputy Director for Legislative Affairs for the RFA, explained some of the details: "The RFA offers to serve as a liaison between recreational anglers and each State's enforcement division. However, as a first course of action, we ask that RFA affiliated and other independent angler's organizations support us on this position. We will ask states designated as producer areas to incorporate the mandatory use of circle hooks for bait fishing into regulations governing spawning areas during the periods when striped bass are present for spawning."
"We realize that not all anglers prefer to use circle hooks," said Captain Jack Ferrara, RFA's New York Chairman, "but there is mounting concern that the striped bass are not reaching their full size and age structure. By beginning to implement the use of circle hooks now, we can significantly reduce release-mortality and help avoid future season and bag restrictions," said Captain Jack.>>
It seems to me that their heart is in the right place, but they're not really addressing the core problem. The main reason that the stripers are not reaching their full size and age structures is the lack of a consistent size limit along the eastern seaboard. I know that I'm potentially opening up a can of worms here, but when fish are in a legal slot size in one state but not legal in other, there are going to be some inconsistencies in the population demographics. Some fish just simply will not have enough opportunity to reproduce as often as others. Some would argue that the patchwork of size restrictions along the coast sort of evens things out a bit, but that is simple speculation without hard data. In a striper eutopia, there would be one coastal size limit (for argument's sake, let's say 36"). Anything below this limit would be returned to the sea to continue its contribution back to the species, and anything above the limit could be kept if so desired. This universal limit would eliminate the excuse of "ignorance of the local law" that many are prone to use when keeping illegal fish. But how to enforce this? Ah, that's the question. Remember, I said it was a eutopia....
I can still see stripers being caught on the J hooks, even if the circle hook is mandated. People could claim that the striper was an incidental bycatch, that they weren't fishing for that particular species. Like anything, the potential for abuse is there.
At the very least, I think that the RFA has brought light to a potential problem with the stripers. Many seem to have become complacent with the fact that the species has rebounded so well from its dire straits in the 1980s, and with this complacency comes a lack of foresight. Those who follow the welfare of the species closely know that the age structures are a bit off kilter, and that to ensure decent populations we need to keep monitoring and protecting them closely. So to the RFA, thank you for again bringing deserved attention to the stripers. Let's keep at it, and use the lean years of the 1980s as motivation.
Thanks for letting me ramble. :-)

|Medical Center
The University of Nebraska has announced the fourth finalist for the position of founding executive director of the Buffett Early Childhood Institute. Harolyn Belcher, associate professor in the Department of Pediatrics at The Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and developmental pediatrician in the Department of Neurology and Developmental Medicine at the Kennedy Krieger Institute, will visit NU March 8-9. Open forums for faculty, staff and members of the public who are interested in meeting her and learning more about her vision for the Buffett Institute are scheduled for:
Each forum will be followed by a reception.
Belcher is a lecturer in the Department of Mental Health at The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and holds adjunct faculty appointments at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Howard University and Morgan State University. She is the director of research at the Kennedy Krieger Institute's Family Center, a community-based mental health center that provides evidence-based mental health treatment focusing on children with a history of abuse, neglect and exposure to community and/or domestic violence. Belcher is currently leading several grant-funded research projects including a recently funded National Institutes of Health grant to conduct a cost comparison of evidence-based parent interventions for young children with emotional and behavior problems.
Belcher is the final candidate for the Buffett Institute director position to visit the university. The first finalist, Carla Peterson, visited NU Feb. 1-2; the second, Susan Landry, visited Feb. 14-16; and the third, Ruby Takanishi, visited Feb. 27-28.
The university invites feedback on any of the candidates at http://buffettinstitute.nebraska.edu/feedback.
The Buffett Institute, made possible by a generous gift from Omaha philanthropist Susie Buffett that will be more than matched by other public and private funds, will be a university-wide, multidisciplinary research, education, outreach and policy center that will seek to transform the approach to early childhood development and education in Nebraska and nationwide.
The primary focus of the institute will be on the learning and healthy development of children from birth to age 8, with special attention on children who are vulnerable because of poverty, abuse or development, learning or behavioral challenges. The institute will strive to create a new model for how a 21st-century public university can help drive the creation of better systems for understanding child learning and development and delivering education and other services to young children and their families.

State Report: E-Licensing, Lawmakers Address Autism + Gun Safety

RI Launches New Licensing + Permitting System
On Thursday, Governor Lincoln D. Chafee, the Rhode Island Department of Business Regulation (DBR) Director Paul McGreevy and Office of Digital Excellence Chief Digital Officer Thom Guertin rolled out the State's new eLicensing System at the Rhode Island Association of Realtors' headquarters in Warwick.
"This type of streamlined process is a key project that ensures government is more productive, and sends a message beyond our borders that we are working toward creating a simpler and easier environment for businesses," Governor Chafee said. "I congratulate the Department of Business Regulation, the Office of Digital Excellence and the Division of Information Technology for forging a strong and successful partnership that ensured this important initiative came to fruition."
Making it easier to do business
Streamlining and updating the process of working with government is part of an overall strategy by the Office of Digital Excellence, the Division of Information Technology (DoIT) and the Department of Business Regulation to make all forms of licensing and permitting simpler and more convenient. Together they have developed a full-service, one-stop around-the-clock opportunity to make doing business in Rhode Island seamless.
The Office of Digital Excellence and DoIT are in the process of preparing for the roll out of similar projects in other parts of government, including an ePermitting solution which can be adapted to individual municipalities.
"We're continuing to look for new ways to make the licensing process more efficient. The Department of Business Regulation was able to consolidate a number of the processes to save time and implement a system that is easy to use," Thom Guertin, Chief Digital Officer, Rhode Island's Office of Digital Excellence (ODE), said. "We're looking forward to reviewing the results, and continuing to introduce improvements with the input of Rhode Island businesses." "Now Rhode Islanders who need this service have up-to-date technology that saves time and is easy to use," John E. Landers, Rhode Island's Chief Information Officer, Division of Information Technology (DoIT), said. "We moved quickly on completing this project so licensees have access to everything they need."
Licensing at your fingertips
With the Department of Business Regulations online project up and running, the public and business owners now have 24/7 access to obtaining and renewing licenses offered by DBR. The eLicensing resource is located at www.dbr.ri.gov.
"One of the primary objectives of this project was to enhance customer service," Paul McGreevy, Director of the Rhode Island Department of Business Regulation, said. "By understanding the needs of our license holders and the public, we now have an eLicensing system to meet the expectations of our customers."
The new DBR website covers more than 43,000 licenses for appraisers, architects, auctioneers, auto body shops, Board of Accountancy, charitable organizations, professional fundraisers, franchises, liquor, mobile home parks, professional engineers, landscape architects, land surveyors, racing and athletics, real estate, time shares and upholstery. Every one of the licenses for either an individual or a company is now located online in one account.
"In the real estate field, eLicensing has brought efficiency and simplicity to procedures previously unavailable and time-consuming," Susan Arnold, Chief Executive Officer for the Rhode Island Association of Realtors, said. "Real estate professionals can now do everything they need for their business in one bucket.

Lawmakers to Reconvene
The General Assembly will open its 2014 session on Tuesday, January 7. The House of Representatives and the Senate will convene in their respective chambers at 4 p.m. to begin the work of the new legislative year.
Speaker of the House Gordon D. Fox (D-Dist. 4, Providence) and President of the Senate M. Teresa Paiva Weed (D-Dist. 13, Newport, Jamestown) will gavel their chambers to order. Opening day of the General Assembly is, per Rhode Island Constitution, the first Tuesday in January. House and Senate floor sessions are typically held Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
General Assembly sessions are open to the public and are also televised by Capitol TV – Channel 15 for Cox Communications and Full Channel, Channel 34 for Verizon.
Small Business Creation
On Friday, Secretary of State Ralph Mollis released fourth quarter data for new business entity creations, which illustrated that businesses continue to file at the same rate as last year.
According to the data, nearly 1,616 new business entities registered with the Secretary of State's Business Services Division for the fourth quarter, which runs between October 1st through December 31st, 2013.
From January 1 through December 31st, 2013, there were a total of 7,199 new entity filings processed by the Business Services Division, which is an increase of 1.015% from last year's year-end totals.
"I am pleased to see that we are continuing to grow new business opportunities here in Rhode Island. This is positive news for our business community," said Mollis.
In 2007, Secretary Mollis implemented an online filing system designed to improve customer experience and make the process more efficient. As of year end 2013, 58% of all annual report filings were filed electronically, as opposed to a paper filing.
Most newly formed business entities in Rhode Island choose a corporate structure that requires registering with the Secretary of State. More than 70,000 limited liability companies and for-profit and non-profit corporations are currently registered.
The Secretary of State's Business Services Division also works with start-ups and oversees recording commercial liens, registering notaries public and protecting corporate trademarks.
Autism Commission
The Special Joint Commission to Study the Quality of Life and Create Positive Outcomes for Individuals with Autism in Rhode Island will meet at noon Thursday, January 9, in Room 135 of the State House.
Thursday's gathering will be an organizational meeting that will include electing a Chairperson, reviewing legislation, discussing goals and objectives, and setting a next meeting date.
In related news, Sen. Adam J. Satchell (D-Dist. 9, West Warwick) recently called upon local artists and members of the public to submit designs for a special license plate supporting the Autism Project of Rhode Island.
The senator, whose bill authorizing the creation of the special license plate passed the General Assembly this year, said he is excited to offer local artists a chance to compete for their own unique designs for a good cause.
The submission deadline was Jan. 1 and submissions are currently being reviewed. For more information visit the project's Facebook page.
Firearms Task Force
The Joint Behavioral Health and Firearms Safety Task Force is scheduled to meet next week with a representative of the federal Department of Justice and a Connecticut State Police official in charge of firearms licensing.
The task force is scheduled to meet Thursday, Jan. 9, at 4:30 p.m. in Room 313 on the third floor of the State House.
Scheduled to make presentations are Jeanne E. Miller, senior attorney for the United States Department of Justice; and Lt. Eric Cooke, commanding officer, special licensing and firearms, for the Connecticut State Police.
Created by legislation sponsored by its co-chairwomen, Rep. Deborah Ruggiero and Sen. Catherine Cool Rumsey, the task force is a key element of the package of legislation introduced this year in the General Assembly to address gun safety following the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
The 20-member task force is to weigh the rights of those with behavioral health problems to own guns with the risks. The panel is to conduct a review of current law and make recommendations on legislation to improve public safety by developing a more comprehensive approach addressing the nexus between behavioral health and firearms safety.
Fox Fundraiser
Johnston Groundbreaking
On Monday, Sen. Frank Lombardo III (D-Dist. 25, Johnston) joined town officials for a groundbreaking ceremony of the new 28,000-square-foot complex, located adjacent to TD Bank North and Walgreens.
According to Lombardo, the groundbreaking of the new mixed residential-commercial building on Atwood Avenue is just another example of the economic revival occurring in Rhode Island.
"I think there is a feeling, particularly in Johnston, that we are finally turning a corner," said Lombardo. "The town has drawn in about 140 new businesses this year. People are excited to get back to work and explore new possibilities in development and entrepreneurship. We are getting back on track."
Lombardo is the deputy majority whip of the Rhode Island Senate. He is also the secretary of the Senate Committee on Labor, and a member of the Senate committees on commerce and rules.

Director, Office of Faculty Development
Conditions Treated:
About Me
I serve as Director of the Office of Faculty Development (OFD) at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, established in the Office of the President in 2012. The goal of the OFD is to foster the career development of all Memorial Sloan Kettering faculty members and to serve as a resource for recruiting, retaining, and supporting their professional growth. The OFD includes specific initiatives for women (the Program for Women Faculty Affairs, established in 2005 to ensure equal professional development opportunities for women and men faculty), junior faculty, and faculty in our expanding regional networks. The OFD also builds the pipeline for faculty development with student programs.
Since joining the Memorial Sloan Kettering faculty in 1990, my clinical work has been in the Breast Imaging Service of the Department of Radiology, where I served for several years as director of breast imaging research programs. My research has focused on image-guided breast needle biopsies under stereotactic, ultrasound, and MRI guidance, which provide a less invasive and less expensive alternative to surgery for diagnosing breast lesions. My work has been integral to setting standards for breast needle biopsy technique and follow-up, has expedited treatment for women with breast cancer, and has spared surgery for women with benign breast lesions.
My book, I Signed as the Doctor, details my treatment for malignancy at Memorial Sloan Kettering after having been a doctor here for almost 20 years. This experience resembled being in a play in which you know all the lines but you're reading the wrong part. I hope that my dual perspective as both a doctor at a cancer center and a cancer survivor will give insight to those coping with cancer and will help physicians be better doctors. With this aim, I actively support Memorial Sloan Kettering's Integrative Medicine Service, Communication Skills (Comskil) Laboratory, Survivorship Initiative, and Resources for Life After Cancer program.

While prototyping miscellaneous stuff with O'Caml (it's quite a neat language for that [among other things], if you can mentally push aside the 31-bit signed integer thingy), I noticed that there are some rather common (in the semi-functional language world anyway) ways of further optimizing code that the ia32 compiler doesn't seem to know about. Closure inlining in a "map", "iter" or "init" construct and instantiation of certain functions where the function has been partially applied to a constant parameter that would cause significant strenght-reduction (or other) gains in the emitted code, just to name two. Then again, I haven't examined the output to see what the compiler does at different "-inline" levels, so there's no telling what I may be missing... I'm a bit surprised though that the compiler that gets second place for many weightings of the ``great computer language shootout'' scorecard doesn't implement the closure-loop inlining thing, seeing as function calls through a pointer are somewhat expensive when compared to function calls to a fixed address.
Maybe I'll take a look at the compiler's source later on, just for the hell of it.
Why do I always get most work done a couple of days before a deadline? And why is most of the work that I do right before said deadline of the "this bit was misdesigned in the first place, so I'll reimplement a better version of something equivalent in one fourth of the source lines" kind? Do I really suck that much? :-)

Yesterday, I took snort's TCP state machine, translated it to Ruby, and built it into cinderella. So, finally, I've got a nice decent state machine that is quite fast (faster than my own, broken one) and work's correctly.
The slides about cinderella are already prepared, so I'm already looking forward to doing my lecture at the Chaos Communication Camp. (I'm mentioning this so often, see how excited I am? :-)
Recently, my brother gave me a nice CD, "Music Monks" by a band called Seeed. Pretty cool reggae, ragga, dancehall. I can only recommend it.

By NEMS Daily Journal
With just a month left before the calamity called the fiscal cliff is due to arrive, Congress is rightly preoccupied with reaching an agreement to avoid it. But once that deal's done, another piece of unfinished business deserves attention – and action – from both parties.
America's immigration system has been broken for years. As U.S. Rep. Mario Diaz Balart, a South Florida Republican, recently told the Sun Sentinel, the system "doesn't work for our national security interests. It doesn't work for economic security. It doesn't work for legal immigrants."
There are at least 11 million immigrants across the nation living in the legal shadows, including about 825,000 in Florida.
Many businesses, particularly in agriculture, rely on their labor. Yet other businesses, especially in high-tech fields, can't fully utilize the world's top talent because of outdated visa limits, tied up in the broader deadlock over immigration policy.
Former President George W. Bush pushed for a comprehensive approach to immigration reform that included better border security, a guest-worker program and a path to citizenship to coax illegal immigrants to get right with the law. But his effort failed under opposition from fellow Republicans in Congress.
Ironically, it's Republicans in Congress who could – and should – lead on a new national effort to fix immigration. Savvy leaders recognize that the party's hard-line opposition to reform has cost it dearly with Hispanics.
Some Republicans are now shopping piecemeal plans for reform.
We prefer a more comprehensive approach that resolves the wider range of problems with immigration policy.
Immigration reform has been a national security and economic imperative for years. Now, it's also a political imperative for Republicans. For the country's future, and the party's, Republicans and Democrats need to work together to fix the system.

Hear ye, hear ye. From new bundles of joy to holiday cheer, here's how to spread the news with stateliness.
Holiday Cards
Sympathy Correspondence
Calling Cards
Birth Announcements
When a baby is born, it is customary to send announcements heralding the event. Your choice of birth announcements should reflect your personality. They can be formal and traditional, or less formal and more imaginative.
The most traditional birth announcements are small cards that are attached to larger cards with a pink or blue ribbon. Other traditional announcements may be simple flat cards with a standard format with formal wording. Less formal announcements can run the gamut from an adorable photo card to an imprint of the baby's foot. The titles "Mr. and Mrs." are used on the most formal announcements, but are dropped on less formal ones. A mother who uses her maiden name has her name appear on the line above the father's name. She does not use a title.
Adoption Announcements
Adoption announcements have the same look and format as birth announcements, but contain additional information. They typically include both the date of birth and the date on which the child was brought home. Sometimes the word "arrived" is used instead of "adopted" as the adoption might not have been finalized before the arrival date. Many parents send adoption announcements as soon as they bring their child home while others wait until the adoption has been legally finalized. If the adoption involves a name change (as with an older child), the announcements generally mention the change.
Christening Invitations
Christening and baptismal invitations are usually very informal. They may be printed in a standard format, engraved in the format of a personal note or handwritten.
Holiday Cards
Individuals, families and businesses send personalized holiday greeting cards toward the end of the year. While most are sent in December to coincide with Christmas and Chanukah, some are sent in November, usually by businesses, to coincide with Thanksgiving. Holiday cards may express either a generic season's greeting or a religious sentiment. Businesses should stick to a generic message.
Most holiday cards display a seasonal or religious scene on the front of the card with a message inside. Many families use a holiday photo card, which has a photograph of the entire family, just the children or even the family dog on the front of the card. Your holiday cards may be personalized by adding your name or your company's name to the sentiment.
Cards sent by a couple show the couple's first names followed by their surname. The woman's name appears first. Couples that do not share the same surname list their names on separate lines.
Again, the woman's name appears first. Children's names may appear in age order (older to younger) on the same line together with their parents' names or separately on a second line.

Season's Greetings and Best Wishes for the New Year
Wishing you joy and happiness during this holiday season and throughout the New Year
Wishing you a joyous Christmas with health and happiness through the coming year
May you find health, happiness and peace during this Holiday Season and through the coming year
Rosh Hashanah Cards
Cards celebrating the Jewish New Year are sent early enough to arrive before the holiday. Like other holiday cards, they may be sent by individuals, families or on behalf of corporations. Your Rosh Hashanah cards may be personalized by adding your name or your company's name to the sentiment.
Cards sent by a couple show the couple's first names followed by their surname. The woman's name appears first. Couples that do not share the same surname list their names on separate lines. Again, the woman's name appears first. Children's names may appear in age order (older to younger) on the same line together with their parents' names or separately on a second line.

Sympathy Correspondence
Invitations to a Memorial Service A memorial service is given in memory of the deceased. It may be given any time after the burial or cremation. The invitations are formal: black ink on an ecru or white card or letter sheet.
Condolence Notes
Condolence notes are letters of sympathy sent to the family of the deceased. They should be sent on a timely basis and should contain sincere expressions of sympathy. Since condolence notes are sent at a difficult time for the family, they should be brief. They should contain personal praise of the deceased and, if appropriate, mention how life was enriched because of him or her. It is always appropriate to end with an offer to be of service to the family.
Sample Notes
Dear Tom,
I was so sorry to hear about your father's death. I'll always remember playing ball with him in your backyard and his teaching us to always give our best. I'll miss him greatly. If there is anything I can do, please let me know.
Dear James,
Michael and I are deeply saddened by Melissa's death. Good friends are hard to come by and Melissa was the best. We will always miss her friendship and love. Please call us if there is anything you need. We're always available.
Dear Mrs. Schwartzman,
We were all surprised and saddened by your husband's death. Working for him was a pleasure for all of us. His door was always open to us whenever we had a question or a problem. Coming to work will be a little bit harder for us now. We hope you will still stop by and visit us when you're in the city.
Susan Miller
Sympathy Acknowlegdments
Sympathy acknowledgments are handwritten notes of appreciation sent to family, friends and business associates who expressed their condolences. They may be engraved when sent to people who are not known personally by the family or when an overwhelming number of acknowledgments need to be sent. A personal message may always be added to engraved acknowledgments.
Ecru or white cards are generally used for sympathy acknowledgments. They may be plain or bordered in black. At one time, the width of the border signified the sender's closeness to the deceased.
The History of Calling Cards
In Europe, the first known use of a calling card occurred in Italy during the latter part of the sixteenth century. The custom spread to France, Great Britain and, eventually, the United States.
Calling cards were originally made for the nobility to hand to a footman when paying a call or to leave at the home when the person called upon was absent. Their use was popularized during the reign of Louis XVI when the custom developed in France to use them when paying New Year's calls.
Calligraphers made the early calling cards, which bore the name of the individual and his hereditary titles. The cards were further embellished with borders, floral designs and other ornamentations.
Early in the 19th century, these embellishments were abandoned in favor of a fine card on which only the individual's name appeared. When making a social call, you leave a calling card for each adult on whom you are calling, never, however, exceeding three cards.
A man may call on a husband and wife, in which case he leaves two cards. A woman may only call on another woman, so she leaves only one card. You may turn down the corner of your card to signify that it is intended for all the ladies of the house.
Calling cards are still occasionally used for their original purpose, but are often used as gift enclosures. The traditional way to personalize a gift enclosure card is by drawing a line through the imprinted name and writing a brief message with your signature.
Calling cards are now available in many sizes and colors. They have become the newest trend in networking. Below are the more traditional guidelines to follow when choosing the format of your calling card.
Men's Cards
A man's full name, preceded by his title, is always used. His middle name is always spelled out, never abbreviated. While "Mr." is always abbreviated, other titles, such as "Doctor" and "Colonel", are spelled out.
Suffixes, such as "junior", may follow the name. A man is a junior when he shares the same name as his father. He uses junior until his father passes away. Then, he drops it from his name.
If, however, his father were a well-known figure, he would continue to use "junior" to avoid any confusion. It may appear in its abbreviated form as "Jr." or, when space permits, spelled out as "junior". When abbreviated, the "J" is capitalized. When spelled out, the "j" is lower case.
A man uses "II" when he is named after an older relative other than his father. "III" is used when a man is named after somebody who uses "junior" or "II". They are usually preceded by a comma, although some men omit the comma.
Traditionally, both formats are correct.
Mr. Griffen Alexander Greylock
Mr. Griffen Alexander Greylock, junior
Mr. Griffen Alexander Greylock, Jr.
Mr. Griffen Alexander Greylock, III
Boy's Cards
A title does not precede the name of a boy under the age of 18.
Thomas Arthur Hancock
Women's Cards
A married woman uses her husband's full name, preceded by "Mrs." Her husband's middle name is always included and is never replaced by his middle initial. If her husband's name is followed by a suffix, such as "Jr.", that suffix appears on her calling cards as well.
Mrs. Harrison Raiford Booth
Mrs. Harrison Raiford Booth, Jr.
A widow continues to use her husband's name on her calling cards. If her son is a junior who has dropped the "Jr." from his name, she adds the suffix "senior" to distinguish herself from her daughter-in-law. "Senior" may be spelled out with a lower case "s" or abbreviated with a capital "S".
Mrs. Harrison Raiford Booth
Mrs. Harrison Raiford Booth, senior
Mrs. Harrison Raiford Booth, Sr.
Divorced Women
A divorced woman uses her first name, maiden name and married name, preceded by "Mrs." She may also use her first, maiden and married names without a title.
Mrs. Lydia Renner Booth
Lydia Renner Booth
A divorced woman who resumed the use of her maiden name uses her first name, middle name and last name, without a title.
Lydia Anne Renner
The Use of "Ms."
"Ms." does not properly appear on calling cards. If a woman feels uncomfortable using "Miss" or "Mrs.", she may omit her title.
Single Woman
A single woman typically uses her first name, middle name and last name, preceded by "Miss". She may also omit her title.
Miss Lydia Anne Renner
Lydia Anne Renner
Husband and Wife
A calling card used jointly by a husband and wife has "Mr. and Mrs." followed by the husband's first name, middle name and last name. His middle name is always spelled out, never abbreviated. If the husband has a title other than "Mr." that title isused instead.
Titles other than "Mr." and "Mrs." should not be abbreviated. When a name is too long to fit on a calling card, it is preferable to omit the middle name rather than to abbreviate a title or use an initial.
Mr. and Mrs. Harrison Raiford Booth
The Reverend and Mrs. Harrison Booth
Medical Doctors
Physicians, surgeons and dentists use the prefix "Doctor" or "Dr." on their calling cards. Professional degrees, however, should not appear on cards for social use.
A single woman who is a medical doctor or a married woman who has retained the use of her maiden name or who uses a professional name uses her first name, middle name and last name, preceded by "Doctor" or "Dr.".
A married woman who is a doctor traditionally uses her husband's first name, middle name and last name, preceded by "Mrs.". Today, she may instead choose to use her first name, maiden name and married name, preceded by "Doctor" or "Dr.".
Male Doctor
Doctor Jeffrey Allen Glenwood
Dr. Jeffrey Allen Glenwood
Single Female Doctor
Doctor Leslie Jean Carpenter
Dr. Leslie Jean Carpenter
Married Female Doctor
Mrs. Jeffrey Allen Glenwood
Doctor Leslie Carpenter Glenwood
Dr. Leslie Allen Glenwood
University and College Titles
Calling cards for general social use for college and university faculty members show no academic titles or degrees. However, calling cards intended for college and university use do show academic titles. The titles are never abbreviated. If there is not enough room on the card due to a long name and title, the middle name may be abbreviated. Letters indicating advanced degrees do not appear.
General Use
Mr. Gregory Winston Hughes
College and University Use
Doctor Gregory Winston Hughes
Members of the clergy use their full names preceded by their title on their calling cards. Titles are never abbreviated. The middle name may be omitted if there is not enough space on the card. No initials indicating divinity degrees appear on the card.
Rabbi Nathan Weisman
The Reverend John Kenneth Rhoads

What are my options to get this done?
The range will be 30ft max. I'm looking for the cheapest option.
Yes you need the Arduino, an Wireless SD shield or an XBee shield. These to shields then need the XBees or WiFly modules added. WiFly have the same footprint as the XBees and give you WiFi.However for a range of 30ft a wire connection should be ok. (Use twisted pair).
If I wanted my arduino board to read 4 analogue inputs, would I need 5 or 8 of the nRF24L01+ boards?
