Googolplex - Unregistered February 11, 2011 12:37 PM I see that Ricciardo is noticeably quicker that Alguersuari in exactly the same car, even though Alguesuari has now had far more time in the car. 3 agree 2 disagree
Oli - Unregistered February 11, 2011 12:51 PM Yes but that means nothing.Testing will give you a general feel for which cars are working straight out the box, but within a team you can't really tell anything. Ric may have been doing qually runs whilst Alg was doing race set-up on heavy tanks for example. Who knows? What tyres were each of the running? etc etc.Oli 3 agree 2 disagree

Save intuition should recognize more test scripts

Since r12568, Padre's "save intuition" supports the correct saving of tests if they have a module name "t::Something".
However, not all tests follow that scheme.
It would be nice if Padre could check whether the yet unnamed script contains things like use Test::More tests => X and then act accordingly.

By a wide margin, the news media concentrated on Democratic presidential contenders more than Republicans during the first three months of 2007, according to a study issued on Thursday.Campaign stories in newspapers, on television, online and on the radio focused on Democrats 61 percent of the time and on Republicans 24 percent, said the Project for Excellence in Journalism, which regularly monitors 48 different outlets to gauge coverage trends.But don't look to political bias as the most obvious explanation. Three conservative radio talk show hosts - Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Michael Savage - talked about Democrats 75 percent of the time and Republicans 13 percent.A fascination with the showdown between Democrats Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama is a big factor, said Tom Rosenstiel, the project's director.The single campaign story to receive the most coverage was Clinton's tiff with former big-money backer David Geffen, who is now contributing to Obama, the study said. This drew even more ink than the first Democratic debate."There's nothing structurally to say that the Democratic race is more important or newsworthy," Rosenstiel said.The study also found that nine out of 10 stories focused on campaign tactics or the relative popularity of the candidates.
""There's nothing structurally to say that the Democratic race is more important or newsworthy," Rosenstiel said."

The preseason fall practice session officially closed for BYU Tuesday. With its closing came the conclusion of some of the story lines that were highlighted while many others will continue to play out into the next week of Ole Miss prep and even into the start of the season.
The preseason didn't see as many things that needed to be sorted out as most years. The team returned a lot of the starters from a season ago, especially on the offensive side of the ball.
"You look around and everyone is back," said running back JJ Di Luigi. "It's good having everyone back, or almost everyone, so you can pick up where you left off, and that has definitely helped us throughout this practice session."
There were some open spots this fall on offense, specifically at left guard, tight end and at fullback that players worked to fill. On defense, every defensive back position was open, along with one of the outside linebacker spots and some of the rotating options along the defensive line.
Although an official two-deep roster has yet to be released by coaches, practice observations and interviews with coaches have yielded a very good sense of who that roster will consist of.
So who helped themselves out most over the past two and a half weeks of practices?
Biggest mover on defense
Defensive players and coaches always complain about the media being focused just on the offense. In response, I'll start with the defense here and specifically Kyle Van Noy.
While there was an open spot at outside linebacker when camp opened, that spot quickly closed. Within the first couple of days of practices, it became readily apparent that Van Noy had made huge strides from a season ago and even from the spring practice session.
"I've been impressed with the strides Kyle Van Noy has made this offseason and here in fall camp," said head coach Bronco Mendenhall. "He's a play-maker. He's done everything we've asked of him, he's put on weight, and I've been impressed."
Van Noy has seen every single one of his reps with the first-team defense. When last year's starter, Jameson Frazier, came back to practice after being injured, it was still Van Noy retaining his starting spot, playing opposite of Jordan Pendleton.
"I've just tried to stay humble, and helping the team is what I want more than anything," said Van Noy. "Helping myself get better and get to be the best that I can helps this team. That's what is important."
Other standout performances on defense included Carter Mees at strong safety and Hebron Fangupo at defensive end. Mees beat out expected two-deeper Jray Galea'I for the backup position, while Fangupo established himself as a big contributor at defensive end.
"We have a bunch of nose tackles, so we're really playing three nose tackles along our front most of the time," said defensive line coach Steve Kaufusi. "Loni (Fangupo) is one of those guys we've moved outside, and I like what he's done this fall. He's someone who can really help us."
Biggest mover on offense
This one is relatively easy. It's Austin Holt.
Tight ends were still a mess of sophomores unable to separate themselves entering fall camp until Holt took the lead. I outlined the tight end battle last week, which has seen the former Bingham High Miner join with Marcus Mathews as the two lead options at the position.
A couple of real surprises came with receivers Rhen Brown and Dallin Cutler.

Released: 1986 Tracks: Amanda; We're Ready; The Launch; Cool the Engines; My Destination; A New World; To Be a Man; I Think I Like It; Can'tcha Say (You Believe in Me)/Still in Love; Hollyann Best track: We're Ready, I guess? Tracks to skip: The Launch, Cool the Engines, My Destination, To Be a Man, Hollyann
Well, at least it's only 36 minutes long! A 36-minute long album was considered "short" in the late 60's, but to put one out that short in 1986…with two of the songs being short instrumentals…wow. Something's really wrong with that. To top it off, it took the band (Tom Scholtz specifically) 8 years to make 36 minutes worth of music. If you were a fan of the "rocking" Boston songs, it also might've annoyed you that 5 of the songs were cheesy ballads – 20 minutes worth. I think that even at the time this album could've been deemed a massive failure. While it's true that it sold millions of copies and both the album and first single Amanda went to #1, that doesn't mean it's actually *good*. This album is proof that you can sell millions of copies by name alone and you don't need much substance in there.
Even with all of the lawsuits, studio fires and Tom Scholtz's well-known studio perfection, there's NO REASON for any album to take 8 years to make. Believe me, I understand how someone can want things *just right* on their album. I get that. But it doesn't take 8 years. That's ridiculous…and even more so since the quality of this album is so piss-poor.
I grew up with this album and I've probably heard these songs thousands of time, but when I listen back now it's just incredibly awful. I hate the sound of the instruments on this. The guitars and pianos sound like they're coming from the inside of a little box (the Rockman!) and there's no meat to them. Listen to the first album and you can hear a lot of depth to the music. On Third Stage you can't; everything sounds so small and compressed. It certainly doesn't help things that there are also awful-sounding drum machines on here (it's the worst on Hollyann).
A lot of these songs don't seem to have fleshed-out ideas. Songs like The Launch, My Destination and A New World all end seemingly out of nowhere and even though they're not very good songs, you've got to at least finish writing them. Maybe Scholtz was just sparing us the pain? Perhaps. It's really disappointing that so much of this album is taken up by cheesy, whiny ballads. There are some really awful rhymes in Amanda in particular. I understand this is a concept album, but I get really tired of the repeated phrases and motifs ("and…feelin' the way I do…). It smacks of laziness, but there's so much of this album that does just that. Even the "not so horrible" song We're Ready still doesn't have much ooph to it and is ultimately forgettable. Here's my most honest review for this album: lazy and often awful, occasionally only marginally better.

Me and my friends used to call this album "Turd Stage." I got into Boston back in like '84 so up to that point all I had was the killer debut and "Don't Look Back." When I heard "Amanda" on the radio, I remember thinking that it sounded like some shit my parents would listen to. That album just flat out sucked and if I remember correctly, wasn't Brad Delp only singing on a few tracks and they had some other dude singing? Either way, that sucked homie.

A Union supporter once said, "What is a man's life worth if our glorious union is to be shattered by traitors?" President Lincoln's volunteers and conscripted soldiers expanded the permanent Union army to include 1,700 regiments of foot soldiers during the course of the war. Those who became part of "Mr. Lincoln's Army" came from various social and economic conditions, and they documented their day-to-day life in diaries, letters and memoirs. Drawing on these narratives, contemporary photographs, and meticulous archival research, this book provides a vivid account of the common Union infantryman from recruitment and training to his experiences on the battlefield during the American Civil War (1861-1865).

Jewish gospel singer Joshua Nelson belts one out during a new Hanukka concert airing on PBS.
Photo courtesy WLIW21
November 27, 2008
It can be quite invigorating to hear new renditions of the songs you've heard since childhood. It jolts you out of the same old, same old.
Lights! Celebrate Hanukkah Live in Concert does the trick for the music of the Festival of Lights.
The holiday melodies are performed with an appropriate mix of joviality and solemnity by an eclectic group of performers in the production, which was taped before a live audience in August at the Japan Theater in Los Angeles. It airs on WLIW21 on Wednesday, Dec. 3, at 8 p.m., preceded by a segment of Visions of Israel at 7:30. An encore broadcast on Sunday, Dec. 7, at 5:30 p.m. is part of the station's Jewish Heritage Celebration.
New Jersey is well represented in Lights! East Orange's own Jewish gospel master, Joshua "The Prince" Nelson, accompanied by a back-up quintet, puts a hand-clapping spin on "I Have a Little Dreidel" and "Hinei Ma Tov."
Singer/songwriter Michelle Citrin, a native of Fair Lawn, tones it down a notch for her sweet interpretation of Peter Yarrow's "Light One Candle."
Emmy Award-winner Mare Winningham, who converted to Judaism in 2006 and recently performed a solo concert at B'nai Shalom in West Orange, tells her story through "A Convert Jig." The Klezmatics bring their Grammy-winning high energy to "Hanukah Gelt" (written by Woody Guthrie), "Ale Brider," and "Hanukah's Flame," while Cantor Alberto Mizrahi — a.k.a. "the Jewish Pavarotti" — goes the Ladino route with "Ocho Kandelikas."
Craig Taubman, the de facto host, performs a number of songs, including his original composition "Sheheheyanu" with his sister, Cantor Caren Glasser, as well as "Holy Ground" and "Ma'oz Tzur" with Laurence Juber, another Grammy winner.
Rabbi David Wolpe adds to the proceedings with mini-drashes about the significance of Hanukka throughout the program.
A couple of odd notes: There is a distinct lack of children in the audience, which seems odd for a concert for this particular holiday. And saxman Dave Koz's "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" is out of the theme. The producers consider it "a song about hope, and a potential new Hanukka classic," but that seems like a stretch.
For a preview of the concert, visit www.wliw.org/Hanukkah. A DVD and CD with bonus songs and interviews will be available from WLIW21 in time for holiday delivery.

Ballet Hispanico Celebrates 25th Season at The Joyce Theater
Ballet Hispanico returns to The Joyce Theater for its 25th annual New York Season from April 16-28, 2013. Tickets range from $10-$59. Tickets are available by phone at 212-242-0800 or online at Joyce.org. The Joyce Theater is located at 175 Eighth Avenue (at 19th Street), NYC.
Program A gives voice to a stellar trio of Spanish works: the world premiere of Sortijas by Cayetano Soto, one of the most dynamic and groundbreaking Spanish choreographers of his generation; the 30th anniversary-and Company premiere-of Jardi Tancat, the award-winning work that launched Nacho Duato's career; and the Joyce premiere of A vueltas con los ochenta by the cutting-edge duo Inma García and Meritxell Barberá, which explores the "Movida Madrileña" against the backdrop of 1980s Europop.
Program B jewels include Argentinean Alejandro Cervera's Tango Vitrola, along with Artistic Director Eduardo Vilaro's Danzón, set to live music by Latin Jazz legend Paquito D'Rivera. The return of audience favorite Nube Blanco is a flamenco-inspired treat to behold.
"I am thrilled to have the opportunity for our dancers to share the stage again with Paquito D'Rivera, one of the Latin Jazz greats, and to work with such gifted collaborators this season," said Eduardo Vilaro, Artistic Director of Ballet Hispanico. "Cayetano Soto's brilliant new voice and Nacho Duato's first work ever combine to make this a program not to be missed."

Rendezvous Ribs Recipe: Ribs In A Hurry
"Eve came from Adam's rib, and it was good. Eve learned to grill ribs, and it was better." Meathead
The most popular ribjoint in the world, has to be Charlie Vergos' Rendezvous in Memphis where they can seat 700 and almost everyone orders baby backs. On an average day, they move 2,100 pounds of ribs.
At the Vous baby backs are cooked about 2 to 3 feet above charcoal at a relatively hot 425°F for only about 60 minutes. The secret is, while they are cooking they are frequently mopped with a thin vinegary mop that steams and softens the meat. No wood is used so there is not much smoke taste. The meat is flavored with the mop and fat dripping on the coals and vaporizing. Then it is covered in their seasoning. There is no sauce.
Almost everything on this site, everything I know, everything I teach, tells you to take your time cooking ribs. Low and slow produces the most tender, juicy meat. That means three hours or more for baby backs, and five or more hours for spares and St. Louis cut.
But sometimes you just can't wait. Like when you have every tourist in Memphis waiting to be served. Here's how to have baby backs ready in 90 minutes, by imitating the way they do it at the Vous where they churn them out like nobody else can. They are a little chewier than low and slow smoked ribs, but darn tasty. If you are among the many who love the Vous, this will get you as close as an airline ticket to Memphis and a cab to that alley near Beale Street.
Recipe for Rendezvous Ribs
Yield. Makes 1 cup of mop, enough for about 2 slabs of baby back ribs
Preparation time. 5 minutes
6 tablespoons of Rendezvous Seasoning (click for recipe)
1/2 cup distilled vinegar
1/2 cup water
4 tablespoons ketchup or tomato based barbecue sauce such as Kansas City Classic or a storebought sauce
1) Set 4 tablespoons of the Rendezvous Seasoning aside for later. Mix the remaining 2 tablespoons with the vinegar, water, and barbecue sauce in a bowl. This makes the Rendezvous Mop.
2) Get the coals started in a chimney. When they are coated with white ash, push most of them to one side of your grill and scatter a few on the other side so you have a two zone grill. Stabilize the temp at about 350°F in the indirect section. At the Vous they cook directly over the coals and the dripping fat vaporizes and flavors the meat. But they get the meat 2 to 3 feet above the heat so there is no problem with flareups burning the meat. On most grills you cannot get the meat this high (although it is possible on some bullet smokers if you remove the water pan), so place the meat on the cooler side of the grill.
3) Paint the meat liberally on all sides with Rendezvous Mop when it goes on the grill and put the lid down. Every 15 minutes open it and quickly paint the meat again and flip it over. If you can, keep the mop warm so it doesn't cool off the meat too much and slow the cooking.
Cooking indoors? Because there is no smoke needed, you do this recipe easily indoors. Put the meat on a broiler rack or in a pan, bone side down. Put the oven on bake at 400°F and you might get them done in an hour. Just remember to mop every 10-15 minutes.
4) After 60 minutes, test to see if the meat is ready with the bend test. Click here for an article on how to tell if the meat is ready. When it is ready, put it on the dinner plate, give it a final mopping, allowing some to pool on the plate, and sprinkle with the remaining Rendezvous Seasoning.

Backpacker Magazine – August 2009
Does your kid want to be an ice climber? How about a thru-hiker, or paddler? These cities have just what you need.
Rock Climber
New Paltz, NY
Gateway to the 'Gunks and the famous crag's thousand-plus climbing routes
Yeah nothing in Texas, I do not think so. We have lakes and wide open spaces. Best climate ever we go camping all year long.
What's the most important factor for raising outdoor kids?....the parents. I grew up in an awesome outdoor place, but I had friends who never ventured into the wild outdoors, slept in a tent in the rain, trudged waist-deep through snow with a pack, climbed a hill on a windy day or caught a fish at sunrise on a misty morning. Those things and more I did because of my parents. They allowed me, helped me, accompanied me and sometimes made me "go outside." Moms, make a rule about watching TV during the day. Dads, set up a tent in the backyard and let the kids sleep in it. Teach the kids to cook. Show them that you love it. Go outside yourself and, for goodness sake, take the kids with you. Let them explore, play, climb and hike. You will pass on to them a legacy, a heritage that is as natural as...nature. God made us to live and enjoy this world. Give your kids a love of the outdoors and you will gain much more in return. You will also gain your children's appreciation, their love and affection and their time. As my daughter has just turned 14 and my son is 11, I have renewed my committment to spend time with them outdoors. Two weeks ago, after my parent's 50th wedding anniversary, the next day my dad and I hiked the Dog Mountain trail in the Columbia River Gorge (featured on BP's website). It reminded me of a time when we went on a similar hike when I was about 10. I wouldn't have traded that time with my Dad for anything. The message here is this...wherever you live, make it a great place to raise an outdoor kid. In the words of my Grandad, who raised outdoor kids.."YOU do it." YOU make it a great place to be an outdoor kid.
Albuquerque, Tucson, and several other cities in the Southwest have good places to hike in nearby mountains and mesas.
I think honourable mentions should be given to some Canadian cities.
Paddling, Ice climbing, Hiking, Sea Kayaking, Skiing - alpine and cross country, snow shoeing, Birding and being a naturalist can all be done in Thunder Bay Ontario. It's eight hours north of Minneapolis / St. Paul. Most will argue this by saying either Vancouver or some other major city here in Canada. However, Thunder Bay simply has it all for raising an Outdoors kid.

I know. It's so hard not to like Luck.....and I hate that. First the Colts get Manning (who played for Tennessee so it's hard to hate him) but he did his share of torching the Titans. Then they lose Manning only to pick up "the best QB prospect to come out of college in the last 30 yrs"......dang that's frustrating.

Many people who ring us just want a divorce, quickly and cheaply without fuss and for as little money as possible. That's fine as it goes, but we always qualify any request, with the question " what about your financial matters". "What do you mean, we have sorted everything, does the divorce not deal with that?".
The straight answer is, no it does not. The divorce just deals with the ending of the marriage, it does not cover finances, and people could be putting themselves at risk of claims years later.
Of course by it's very nature, consent orders require both spouses to be in 100% agreement with the financial arrangements set out in the order.
We always try and explain that, even years later, an ex spouse could if they so wished make a claim to the court, for a whole raft of financial remedies, such as maintenance, lump sum payments and in some cases property transfers and pensions, depending on how the divorce was filed in the first place.
Just because a spouse says they are in agreement, does not mean, years later they will not change their minds. How many people have met new partners that have said, " why did you do that, you could have got loads more".
Also people think consent orders are complicated and that it involves a drawn out process that requires mountains of paperwork. Not true, all the court require is a drafted proposed consent order, an up to date, basic financial disclosure document and a few extra forms to be signed.
On occasions if the order looks unfair, a judge may ask for more information or request a short hearing, to see the whites of your eyes and to make sure both parties fully understand what they have signed up for.
If you have had legal advice, which might cost you an hour or so of time with a lawyer, then in most cases the court will make the consent order and you a free to live your life without the worry that your ex will pop out of the woodwork and claim your lottery winnings.
You can obtain a consent order for just £150 + £45 court fee with Divorce-Online. All orders are drafted by experienced Solicitors on your behalf.

"Forced to buy this for my wife"
1.0 starson by jakemochasjPros: Its shiny! And apple stockholders must be happy that apple has managed to dime and nickel everyone who gets sucked in! My wife likes it.
Cons: Its just an expensive toy. All of the hype from the media "oh it will change computing" I don't really see happening (typing this on my netbook right now). It doesn't replace any peripherals, it adds one.
Summary: I love the iPod touch (I have the 1st and 3rd gen) and they are essentially nice little pocket computers. My wife loved playing with mine so much that I decided to order her an iPad. After doing some playing around I realize how big of a waste of money this thing is. The news subscriptions, apps, and books are more expensive than on other devices (or on paper). I don't know if this things for you, go for it. Its not for me!
- 11 replies to this review
This thing is not for me, either.
So. Jake, Did your wife force you on the sofa until you ponied up the dough for one of these? As an Apple shareholder, thank your wife for me.
That's nice of you that you feel for your wife to buy her such a gift. Good on ya. Well, you are expressing your opinion towards the machine and your wife as to @BillSkinzFifth multiple rants towards those that gives more than one star.
People are going to disagree of course. However, I have an Iphone. It (along with android phones) are great for quick views of almost any content anywhere you are. But let's face it, the experience is not very rich. In one weekend I'm using the IPAD for 90% of computer uses. I also uses it as substitute for Apple TV or Netflix streaming device. Reading books, magazines, and comics on a laptop is very cumbersome, not so with the IPAD.
It does look like a nice toy to have, and the price does seem reasonable, especially for an Apple product. I mean, it is what it is, a bigger Ipod, a good and bad thing, just like every product out there. But the only thing I dont like is how people hyped it up saying it will be revolutionary. I mean, it is different, but not really a step forward, its something in between. If anything, this is the slimest tablet on the market now. But like every tablet, you cant fit it in your pocket. Me personality, I determine the portablity of a product by if you can fit it in your pocket or not.
Yea since I own a PC, I dont understand why people are comparing it to laptops when everyone knows its not a laptop replacement. Ill keep drinking that Kool-Aid even though I use PCs. I just enjoyed playing with the product yesterday, its a all around good product. 1 star is just to critical.
Sorry about the double post... I thought the first one failed...
Why can't he give this a negative review? Oh, I forgot. You two guys are probably the typical Kool-Aid drinking MAC fanatics that spend a small fortune just to be in a room with a bottle of Steve Jobs' sweat...
Negative reviews, ESPECIALLY for an Apple product are the only ones that can really be trusted because there are so many people such as yourselves that can't handle even the most remote attack on an Apple product.
I for one, found the review very helpful. It doesn't mean that I wouldn't buy one, but it gives me some stuff to think about. -
Boy oh boy, the Kool-Aid drinking MAC fanatics just can't handle the fact that some people don't like the iPad...
His reasoning is NOTHING that should make someone speechless... and he is more than able to review with only 1 star because HE reviewed it, Not his wife...
I for one, always think reading the negative reviews are more helpful because they list whatever the user thinks are faults. Negative reviews are WAY more helpful than some flowery sugar coated review that some MAC geek wrote who buys into all of the ridiculous hype and types what can be considered just a romantic love letter aimed at Steve Jobs... -
Dumb down review! One star for your reasons is just speechless. Once again, comparing this to a laptop or netbook is pointless!
I don't think you really justify giving this one star if your wife likes it!

How To Have A Long-Lasting, Loving Relationship
5. Be positive. Don't say every negative thing you think. Imagine criticism is like toothpaste inside the tube. It's easy to squeeze the negative comments out, but once the words are out, it's impossible to put them back "in." In my office, it's not unusual to have one partner bring up a hurtful comment that the other partner made decades earlier. Harsh criticism erodes trust. 2 Tips For Fighting Fair In Intimate Relationships
When you have to share negative feedback, do it as a kind of "criticism sandwich." Begin the conversation with a compliment, put the criticism in as the middle layer, and then
finish up with a piece of reassurance or a positive feeling.
More from YourTango: 5 Ways To Tell If He Is Committed & Serious About You
6. Stop comparing! Don't compare yourselves to other couples. Most couples who are out in public will try to portray at least an image of harmony. Many depict their union as the paragon of true devotion and love.
It's not that happy couples don't exist. They do. But they quarrel too, just like you do. When you view a couple who is lovey-dovey or seems to have it all together, you can't tell from the outside if what you are seeing is the real deal or not.
It's easy to project your fantasy that their couple life together is easy and glamorous, while it is so hard to make yours work. Trust me, no couple has an easy time staying together and combining, work, love, finances, kids, emotional intimacy, and sex. (One of the advantages of being a couples therapist is that you get to hear the truth, once the office door is closed.) Be grateful for what's good in your relationship.

Summary: American metropolitan areas today are divided into neighborhoods of privilege and poverty, often along lines of ethnicity and race. City residents traveling through these neighborhoods move from feeling at home to feeling like tourists to feeling so out of place they fear for their security. As Gerald Frug shows, this divided and inhospitable urban landscape is not simply the result of individual choices about where to live or start a business. It is the product of g ...show moreovernment policies--and, in particular, the policies embedded in legal rules. A Harvard law professor and leading expert on urban affairs, Frug presents the first-ever analysis of how legal rules shape modern cities and outlines a set of alternatives to bring down the walls that now keep city dwellers apart.
Frug begins by describing how American law treats cities as subdivisions of states and shows how this arrangement has encouraged the separation of metropolitan residents into different, sometimes hostile groups. He explains in clear, accessible language the divisive impact of rules about zoning, redevelopment, land use, and the organization of such city services as education and policing. He pays special attention to the underlying role of anxiety about strangers, the widespread desire for good schools, and the pervasive fear of crime. Ultimately, Frug calls for replacing the current legal definition of cities with an alternative based on what he calls "community building"--an alternative that gives cities within the same metropolitan region incentives to forge closer links with each other.
An incisive study of the legal roots of today's urban problems, City Making is also an optimistic and compelling blueprint for enabling American cities once again to embrace their historic role of helping people reach an accommodation with those who live in the same geographic area, no matter how dissimilar they are. ...show less

"If you think you've been called a bad name, try to work your way out from under that. Yeah, and for what? For playing an electric guitar? As if that is in some kind of way equitable to betraying our Lord and delivering him up to be crucified. All those evil motherfuckers can rot in hell."
-- After 46 years, Bob Dylan is still pissed about that heckler who shouted "Judas!" in Manchester in 1966. Fuck the haters, basically. (via Rolling Stone)
Bob Dylan Announces New Album

2012 marks fifty years since Bob Dylan's iconic self-titled debut was released via Columbia Records. And now, on September 11, the label will release the thirty-fifth album from the legend, with the very Shakespearean title Tempest. It was produced by Dylan himself, under his Jack Frost alias.
Bob Dylan, Jack White, More Sing Unrecorded Hank Williams Songs on Tribute Compilation
By Tom Breihan on August 4, 2011 at 03:30 p.m.
Rolling Stone reports that Bob Dylan and Jack White, among others, have recorded versions of previously unreleased songs by country music deity Hank Williams for the tribute album The Lost Notebooks of Hank Williams, out October 4 on Dylan's own Egyptian Records. Williams died in 1953 at the age of 29, and he left behind a leather briefcase full of unrecorded song ideas. For this album, all the contributing artists finished up the songs and recorded them-- sort of like what Billy Bragg and Wilco did for Woody Guthrie's unrecorded songs on the Mermaid Avenue albums.

On October 5, Reimagine Music will release the compilation Subterranean Homesick Blues: A Tribute to Bob Dylan's Bringing It All Back Home, which features various current artists covering every song from Bob Dylan's watershed 1965 album, as well as a bunch of associated outtakes. Up above, you can enter an email address to download one of the covers from that album, BNM'ed indie twitchers the Morning Benders giving "Outlaw Blues" a slow, spare, harmony-rich reading.
Morning Benders, Mirah Pay Bob Dylan Tribute
By Tom Breihan on September 21, 2010 at 12:30 p.m.
The 1965 album Bringing It All Back Home comes from Bob Dylan's transition period, the moment where he was split between the acoustic Greenwich Village folk music of his early records and the divisive electric-guitar folk-rock stuff he'd embrace more fully on Highway 61 Revisited later that year. Bringing It All Back Home has some of the man's most iconic tracks: "Subterranean Homesick Blues", "Mr. Tambourine Man", "Maggie's Farm". And even the songs that haven't appeared on a million soundtracks remain fascinating, like the apocalyptic acoustic sprawls "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)" and "Bob Dylan's 115th Dream", or the genuinely hilarious pisstake "On the Road Again".

Levi's Pioneer Sessions is series of free downloads from the denim giant featuring current artists covering older songs that inspired them. Thus far, the Levi's folks have offered us Nas taking on Slick Rick's "Hey Young World" and She & Him doing the oldies standard "Fools Rush In". And now they've got Dirty Projectors doing a version of Bob Dylan's 1968 song "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine", which features frontman Dave Longstreth coming about as close to Dylan's delivery as I've ever heard anyone get.
You can head over to the Pioneer Sessions website to download it, and click below to see footage of the band recording the cover.

After about five years on the line at GHSP in Grand Haven, Karen Frisbee found herself without a job."I was laid off for almost a year," said Frisbee.
The auto industry just didn't need as many of the shift systems she was making. The company laid off around 200 people in West Michigan in the last few years.
But few weeks ago, Frisbee returned to work.
"It takes a lot more brain work than it does out there," said Frisbee.
They re-hired her to do plastic injection molding. GHSP just opened a new 40,000 square foot facility to make actuators and other components for a variety of electronics, including electric cars.
GHSP even has a new high tech "clean room" on the way.
Their name, GHSP, for Grand Haven Stamped Products, doesn't really make sense any more.
"There are a lot of stampers in Michigan who have not survived," said Marketing Director Bob Mersereau. "And all of this space in November was full of stamping machines."
Company leaders saw a movement on the horizon and changed with the times. So they're making a part for the Nissan Leaf, a new electric car that launches this Fall.
"So all the things that you had on a previous car that were driven on a camshaft for example are now going to be driven off of a battery system," said CEO Paul Doyle. "And that's going to lead to a whole bunch of products."
The company has more than 700 employees worldwide and 360 in Grand Haven.
The President's fuel standards won't mean everyone will drive an electric car in a few years, but we may drive more efficient internal combustion vehicles.
Either way, GHSP thinks they've diversified at just the right time.
"Electronics are moving into more and more parts of the cars and actually as the fuel economy standard goes up, we get to sell more parts into cars," said Mersereau.

Back in 2001, I still lived in my parents' house, in the middle of New Jersey. From there, I could walk to a neighbor's house, or across a country road to a nature preserve, or—with cars whizzing by 50 miles per hour—down to the crossroads, where there was a post office and a sandwich shop and not much else. So mostly, I drove.
I wasn't alone. According to a new report [PDF]. people in between age 16 and 34 drove 10,300 vehicle-miles per capita that year. By 2009, the year I moved to Manhattan and began walking or taking public transit everywhere I went, my fellow young people drove only 7,900 vehicle-miles per capita—a 23 percent drop. Members of my generation biked more, walked more, and took more trips on public transit than they did in 2001, according to the report, from U.S. PIRG Education Fund and the Frontier Group. They took fewer trips in cars, and the trips that they did take were shorter.
The report attributes this shift in part to people making the same choices that I did, choosing to live in cities or small-but-dense communities that might have a coffee shop, a few restaurants, a yoga studio or a gym, and a few stores within walking distance.
The real estate industry is particularly interested in these preferences because it wants to be able to sell or rent young folks places to lives. A survey by the National Association of Realtors found that 62 percent of young people (between age 18 and 29, in this case) want to live in communities where homes are close to stores, restaurants, and public amenities from libraries to public transportation. More than half of us would also accept less space in exchange proximity to these resources, according to the real estate research group RCLCO, which also found that 77 percent of Millennials plan to live in cities.
The driving habits report also found that young people with jobs, especially those with income to spare, are choosing to drive less. Young people living in households with at least $70,000 in income more than doubled their use of public transportation between 2001 and 2009. These shifts aren't happening just because the economy has been bad.
These are difficult changes to make, and in the future, it'll be important to ensure that people with less financial flexibility can afford to live in the dense neighborhoods that make these choices easier. But for now, it's refreshing to know that we're making these choices because we want to, not because we have to.

This is fabulous! I am so glad to see this positive trend in a world of mostly horrifying trends, specifically in terms of climate and oil consumption. I think the American dream of living in a huge house in a sprawling suburb is being exposed for what it really is... a way for people to isolate themselves and be dependent on oil. I am glad to see people would rather connect with each other, live in closer proximity and on a smaller scale.

Hey Guys
I am new to your forum but love that there is a place I can find advice and tips.
Currently I have an issue with my house and the thawing of the ice on my lawn. It is causing my sump pump to discharge every half an hour or so. I am not sure if that is an issue but its causing the water to flow all over my front lawn and into the house via the basement.
Does anyone have a suggestion for me? Should I attach a pipe and run it to the street?
It sounds like your pump is doing its job, but that it might need to do less if you had some different landscaping. A pipe out across the yard would not necessarily guarantee the discharged water would not find its way back to the house. You might need to have someone come out to take a look at your drainage issue(s) and suggest some options.

I now have the ability to build walls, and they seem to be of strategic importance whenever I play against the computer. I've yet to be attacked by any other players, but I feel that is coming soon and I'd like to minimize my losses. I don't have enough wall to fully enclose my camp, so I need to decide what goes inside and what goes out. Which buildings should I prioritize?
I'm still experimenting with this, and I believe there are many strategies - but here's what I know so far.
* Do note that if resource farming is your goal, you may be better served leaving your Town Hall exposed in order to solicit cheap shields, and distract focus from your storage tanks. By exclusion, this means that your Barracks, Army Camp, Laboratory, Builder's Hut etc are not essential to be inside the wall. They still count towards your 50% building mark, which can result in a loss - so fit them when you can. They also serve as a good distraction for dumber units like barbarians, so keep that in mind. I have found that savvy players will place certain buildings like builders huts way away from the rest of their camp, to force attack units to hoof it. This can cost attackers valuable time, and may even save you from defeat when your defenses are exhausted. |
I would recommend putting your townhall inside walls, defences, or other important buildings. If you are a farmer and you do not care for trophies put your storages and defences inside walls and leave your townhall open to attack, that way when you get raided they might drop 5 archers or so, get your townhall, and leave giving you a free 16 hour shield to protect your recourses. If you are gathering trophies or a trophy base, you would have your townhall and defences protected. You would probably put gold storages, elixir storages, mines, and collectors on the outside of the base. |

The wife of disgraced Chinese politician Bo Xilai and a family aide have been charged with the murder of a British businessman, state news agency Xinhua has reported.
Xinhua said on Thursday that the prosecutor's indictment said Bo's wife, Gu Kailai, had a falling out with Briton Neil Heywood over money and worried that it would threaten her and their son's safety.
Gu and the aide, Zhang Xiaojun, are alleged to have poisoned Heywood together, the report said.
"The facts of the two defendants' crime are clear, and the evidence is irrefutable and substantial. Therefore, the two defendants should be charged with intentional homicide," Xinhua said.
It did not give a date for the trial, but a family lawyer told the Reuters news agency it was likely to take place on August 7-8.
The announcement comes months before the ruling Communist Party unveils a new top leadership.
Heywood was found dead in a hotel in Chongqing in November last.
Local officials initially said he died of excessive drinking, but the government announced in April it was investigating Bo's wife in connection with the case.
They were charged in the eastern city of Hefei, Xinhua said.
It did not say when exactly the indictment was issued or when the crime occurred and why the case is being prosecuted in Hefei and not in Chongqing, the metropolis Bo ran as Communist party secretary and where the couple lived.
Prosecutors have interrogated Bo and Zhang and have "heard the opinions" of their defence lawyers, Xinhua said.
Bo, the former leader of the south-western Chinese province of Chongqing, was sacked in March and is now under investigation for a string of accusations ranging from an abuse of power to flouting rules against the Communist party.
Bo, 62, was widely seen as pushing for a spot in that new leadership until felled by the scandal brought to light by his former police chief, Wang Lijun.
The removal of Bo has triggered rifts and uncertainty, disrupting the Communist Party's usually secretive and carefullychoreographed process of settling on a new central leadership in the run up to its 18th congress.

David Leone "File Naming:tedious but important
In all the readings we have for this class, it's difficult to get a handle on every one of them. I had overlooked a video tutorial about changing and creating file names that David's blog brought to my attention. So, thank you David!
The four part video tutorial set is found here:
The third video "What not to do when naming files," pointed out something to me that I am have done consistently, which is leave spaces in my file names. Apparently, spaces left in file names can cause problems with some computer software reading those names. The tutorial suggests using underscores _ or dashes – to denote spaces in file names. Another helpful hint is to always use the same date format when naming files.
The key what NOT to do's:
Never use special characters (except the previously mentioned dashes and underscores)
Never use spaces
Never change the file extension (it doesn't actually convert the file and might make it unreadable.)
Never count on capitalization:
I am guilty of this. I've though, oh, I'll capitalize this for the final draft, then I've forgotten which was final, capitalized or uncapitalized! The specific reason they state in the video is because many programs read and search with capitals meaning the same as not capitalized letters.
The key what TO do's
Make your file names unique
(don't leave your image files pulled off your digital camera as random numbers, who knows when you might be moving or sharing your files in places where DSC 002 has been used many times before)
Give the file a brief, meaningful name
Make your date format consistent throughout time and include date information
Consider using consistent file naming guidelines at your job, if such guidelines aren't already in place.
The title of this blog post is my attempt at practicing some of these naming rules, and good luck to everyone in their file naming endeavors!

CCNY Study Cited Among Top Optics Papers for 2008
Start: 01/08/09
End: 01/31/12
A paper by Henry Sztul, a Ph.D. candidate in physics, and his mentor, Dr. Robert R. Alfano, CUNY Distinguished Professor of Science and Engineering at CCNY, was cited as one of the most exciting research developments in optics for 2008 by "Optics and Photonics News." Mr. Sztul and Professor Alfano explored the propagation dynamics of Airy beams, which are laser beams that travel in a curved rather than straight path. They found that as the beam travels along its arc its main lobe, or brightest part, is consistently pointed at a 45 degree angle to the X axis. However, the Poynting vector, which describes the magnitude and direction of the energy flow from the Airy beam's tail, points in a negative Y or negative X direction. This indicates the energy in the tail is flowing toward the beam's main lobe. Mr. Sztul and Professor Alfano also found that while the net angular momentum around the Z-axis was always zero, the spatial distribution of the angular momentum had changing values. "The study shows the spatial evolution of the Airy solution to the paraxial wave equation," Professor Alfano said. "While momentum is changing, energy and momentum are conserved."

What will 2011 hold for you? What will be the major trends to look out for? And how will this whole social media thing play out?
Here's a few things we do know.
The rate at which technology is changing our online world is pretty awe inspiring. The changes we see almost daily on our social media sites are an indication of that.
We all realize that the online world that we operate in today will look vastly different in just 6 months from now, let alone a few years.
If you're ready to accept this and be open to this continual change, then you're in a great position to capitalise on the top 10 trends in social media for 2011.
Social Media adaptation
If you've been using the Top 5 social media sites for more than few years – Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube and a blog, then you're considered an early adopter. Slowly the rest of the world is catching on.
When Harvard and Browns Universities started teaching Social Media classes, you knew this `stuff' was important and no longer just a fad.
Prediction: More people will adopt social media as their key platform of personal and professional communication, networking, branding, marketing and sales. It's here to stay.
Single User Access to Multiple sites
We already know that Facebook Connect has been widely adopted by individuals and businesses alike. It makes sense to make it as easy as pie for people to connect with you on your website using one of the largest social media sites as your login credentials. Plus it spreads the word further by ensuring every action they take on your site is shared on Facebook.
YouTube were smart to allow Google Connect on their site, so that you could use your Gmail login to access our account.
Prediction: More of the social media sites will allow for this single access sign-on using one main login credential. Perhaps even merging – i.e using your Twitter login for Facebook too. This will make it far more likely that people will interact across the platforms on a more regular basis. At the same time their online footprint will be available on more sites and also their information….
New laws on privacy
The above trend is one that concerns a lot of us. Who currently holds the power? Is it the Mark Zuckerbergs' of this world who have virtually all your personal information at their fingertips? Or the governments who can shut down such a site at will and demand access to your information?
A great example of this was China's government banning Google earlier this year and the power battles that ensued.
Prediction: Ongoing privacy issues will lead to a tightening up on the key social media sites and a universal legislation developed. This will primarily deal with the increasing attacks on our privacy due to the amount of information we're putting out and who owns this.
Social Media TV
Twitter has already stated they want to be the real-time TV channel of the decade. They showed it at the MTV Awards earlier this year. By allowing TV fans watching to interact by tweeting, they bridged a connection of the online world to the offline world in real time.
It's getting easier and easier to make and produce videos and more personalities are tending towards creating their own `free' TV channels that will compete with mass media. Gary Vaynerchuk's Wine Library TV is a great example of this.
Prediction: Major networks will look to host online channels with free and paid for access to content in real-time. They will seek to partner with influential individuals creating great TV content through social networks.
Merging of the big names with the upstarts
It's not just Google and Microsoft that acquire startups with new technology. Some of the main social media sites have done a great job at acquiring companies that have built valuable applications and plugins to extend their platforms.
Prediction: Smaller social media sites and services will look to merge to become a larger entity able to compete on a bigger stage, along with LinkedIn and Facebook. It wouldn't come as a surprise if MySpace became integrated with YouTube to enhance its dying service in a unique creative spin-off merging a site with a local TV network.
Online marketing spend increase
It's been baffling to read reports of the continual spend on traditional forms of marketing such as magazines, billboards, TV ads and print fliers. Especially when the figures clearly show that it's becoming way less effective in a world dominated by online users.
Newsflash- we don't look up from our laptops or smartphones to read that billboard anymore (ok slight exaggeration but you're nodding your heads in agreement).
Prediction: Finally this ridiculous activity of spending huge amounts of money on traditional forms of advertising will shift towards spending online. Companies will recognize the value of the potential audiences they can reach for far less and much more quickly and invest in social media as a delivery vehicle.
Smartphone dominance
With over 70% of the world having mobile access now it's only time before many of those become smartphones. Imagine what this means for us as individuals, but more importantly businesses seeking a global audience.
Prediction: Internet access in developing countries will increase (with the appropriate infrastructure build of course) allowing international borders to be crossed with ease and a huge new audience wanting to consume the offerings of the online world – and bring new ones.
International communities
The above prediction means of course that we will go more global. The fact that China's social network is larger than Facebook and Brazil's is close on its heels means there's a wide audience not dominated by the western world.
Prediction: The ability to start businesses online with international partners and offerings will become far easier. New services will be appear catering to language barriers and payments to ensure this trend becomes mainstream.
Women power
The recent report put out by Intuit shows that over the next decade, women around the world will enter the workforce at an unprecedented rate. Close to 1 billion women, who had not previously participated in the mainstream global economy will do so by 2020.
The fastest growing demographic of Facebook user is currently 55 year old plus women. We are creating a She-conomy. Plus women are naturally more social so it makes sense that we are adapting well to the social media sites.
Prediction: Women will overcome the legal or traditional barriers that prevented them from participating in some regions by using virtual, mobile and Internet technologies to run businesses without having to be physically present. Businesses will recognize this and start creating customized products and services online to cater to them.
Consumers shape the online marketplace
Thanks to the number of amazing tools and services we have out our disposal these days it's starting to transform the communities we build and the relationships we make online and offline.
Recent results have shown that nontraditional influencers, such as bloggers and social network contacts are the key people we turn to before making a purchasing decision. It makes sense really, you generally buy on recommendations from friends.
Now you have these social networks where you're exposed to your friend's friends' too and their influence will continue to expand.
Prediction: Businesses are going to be forced to step up and take on multiple, inter-connected approaches to reach new customers, most of whom are hanging out on the web. We will see more companies using their customers as the face of their business – either by sponsoring bloggers or highlighting top customers in their online campaigns.
These are just some of the trends that 2011 holds. Do you think they're bang on or I've gone stark raving mad? Do you have some more to add? Let's hear em!
