Photos: What Mavs fans can expect from new-look roster
Point guard, Roddy Beaubois. He'll need to put a full season together to earn back some trust. Entering his fourth season in Dallas, the native of Pointe-a-Pitre, France, remains a mystery, showing flashes of brilliance and troubling inconsistency. Roddy B. played in 53 games in 2012, averaging 8.9 points and 21.7 minutes. Beaubois was discovered by fellow NBA player Mickaël Piétrus at an open basketball camp in his native home island, Guadeloupe, located in the French West Indies.

Interesting but cryptic comments from Deputy Mines Minister Maxwell Mwale. Apparently government will soon establish trust funds that will make mining companies contribute funds towards the sustainability of local communities. These trust funds would be controlled and managed by the communities themselves (presumably with significant control mechanisms?).
Nkana Member of Parliament Mwenya Musenge recently called for similar fund and we discussed that proposal under sharing the proceeds of mining. This is not the first government has come up with these ideas. A while back the idea of Local Development Fund modelled on the Environmental Protection Fund was suggested (whatever happended to the EPF by the way?). Whatever model is ultimately used, I am pretty sure this is more about shariing the existing cake, rather than generating new resources for communities outside the tax system. Would be interested to hear from others on how this has been done for other countries.

We love Zakk though from his long time work as Ozzy Osbourne's right hand man to his own band Black Label Society Zakk Wylde has become one of the most recognizable and influential people in hard rock and heavy metal. After 4 years and one acoustic record Black Label Society are back with Catacombs of the Black Vatican. A record that sounds just like you would expect, heavy with some melody, a couple of piano ballads and more guitar solos then what should be allowed. Zakk joins us in the Hangar to discuss all the above and play some records.
Then we are going to go In The Vault with The Melvins. Who were on tour with Nirvana in Europe in early 1994, the same tour that Kurt Cobain od'd before being sent home to recover where he eventually killed himself with a shot gun blast to the head. One of Nirvana's biggest influences were The Melvins and in this quick interview in Slovenia they pay their sarcastic respects.
This week's Power Set will come from Gun's N' Roses who will be doing another residency in Las Vegas at The Joint inside the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in May. That's of course right after they headline some festivals and play the Revolver Golden God Awards. So this Power Set is taken from their live album Live Era '87-93 that came out in 1999.
(Live Era artwork courtesy of Geffen Records)
Speaking of Revolver this week's Then & Now comes from a band co-headlining the Revolver Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock tour. The band is Lacuna Coil and with their new album coming out the same week as Black Label Society's we have a new song to debut plus an old school gem.
(Black Crown Halo artwork courtesy of Century Media Records)We are also going to revisit the Last Action Hero soundtrack for this week's Heavy Metal Soundtrack review.
All this and another 3 hours of old school metal only inside Hangar 19.

No way, I love my black GN.
No way, I love my black GN.
I would sport a white Nexus. I have a thing for white electronics.
The United States is the land of the free because of the brave.
To all who serve or have served in the U.S. military and to your families, THANK YOU. Your sacrifices are NOT in vain!
May God continue to bless the USA
I think white phones are hideous. I don't get why so many people got the white iphone, the black one looks so much nicer.
i would love to have one.. must be the minority in here :/
"The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?"
Razr maxx
Nah, I was gonna get the Nexus but it seems every time I get the money something comes up delaying my purchase. This time its the windshield on my girls Explorer, and the ball joints on my car so my purchase is further delayed. and by the time I have the money something better might be out so who knows, eitherway im stuck waiting still
Trust me, if I could charge this phone to my account I would but I cant cause of a deposit on hold for my girls line. so i have no choice but to play the wait and see game.
Part of what makes having the galaxy nexus so cool is not being able to tell what part is the screen and what part is the outer phone. A white phone with black screen defeats that whole purpose of having the no touch keys on the phone in my opinion.

Fudge Medium Hold Protective Salt Enhanced Spray
Fudge Medium Hold Bodifying Salt Enhanced Texture Spray
Member Name: bringingsexyback
Fudge Medium Hold Bodifying Salt Enhanced Texture Spray
Date: 25/10/12
Advantages: This smells nice and holds textured and straight styles
Disadvantages: There are no disadvantages
A medium hold hairspray by Fudge that will allow you to create a variety of styles.
Spray from a few inches away from your hair and style. The hairspray can be used after styling to set the style.
I use this hairspray on two of my ladies and myself occasionally. It has got a very nice smell but I don't think it's as nice as other Fudge hair products. The hairspray isn't sticky and does not make my hair wet when I use it, when I spray it on my older ladies hair it gives it a very natural finish that allows her hair to move freely but keeps the style in place. Hers is a very short choppy style and the spray makes it easy for me to give her an attractive tousled style that removes a decade from her appearance.
The other lady is younger and has her hair poker straight, she insists on this hairspray and was the person who recommended it to me. This spray suits her hair, holds the straight finish and gives her hair a beautiful shine that I cannot achieve with any other product. I have to use a large amount on the hair at the nape of her neck because it is very hard to straighten as it grows in an opposite direction from the rest of her hair.
The hairspray brushes out quite easily but can leave a powdery residue so it is best to wash out using a good quality shampoo. When I use it while straightening my hair I spray and straighten at night and my hair is still straight in the morning. It is a lot more expensive than standard branded hairsprays but you do not have to use very much so it is worth paying extra. I like how soft my hair feels after I have used it and my hair never goes hard like with some other hairsprays even if it is not properly dry before I spray it on.
5 Dooyoo Stars.
Summary: This is a very good hairspray but expensive

Thanks OP. Pulled the trigger on this one. Got free shipping and no tax to California. Great Deal
Would this work with the 50 dollar discount on a z77 motherboard and pricematching at microcenter? |
In other words, if I would like to buy a processor but don't feel like driving out to MicroCenter, I get BestBuy to price match just the processor. If I need both CPU and mobo, I'd go to MicroCenter. Since there's a deal on the Biostar Z77 mobo, just do what I did... |
So, my plan is: Shop TD, MC and as many others I can find that BB will price-match and just shop @ BB. Haha, it's two miles away... plus tax tho :/ ~~Cheers Oh, and thanx OP, I got one. Was a hard decision between this and the MSI or Asus.... i basically closed my eyes and pressed the button on this one. As long as it OCs good and is stable, good LAN stability (for FPS gaming), i'm happy. Coming from the Asus K53 class mobo so, my expectations are a bit high (years old yeh).

[QUOTE=liberius;55735218]I just recently got Best Buy to price-match a 3770K for me (229.99) over the phone on Monday, ANd would have pmed the xbox 360 bluetooth earpiece as well for 19.99 but it expired); it should be here Thursday. From what I gathered, since MC was not in my area it was one reason why they could do it. I thought she made a mistake but that's what the rep from BB told me... sounded weird but w/e i went with it and got a sweet deal I think.
So what did you have to do? just give them the url? would a print out work if i went in store? |

Rachel was a 2009 Charter Arts graduate, where she majored in Figure Skating. She heavily focused her training in ice dancing and show skating. She had the privilege of auditioning with prospective ice dance partners trained by prestigious world and Olympic coaches such as Robbie Kaine and Igor Shpilband.
Upon graduating Charter Arts, Rachel decided to give up her competitive skating status and turn professional. Her first professional contract began two days after leaving Charter Arts. As a professional figure skater, Rachel has performed in shows for Woodstock Ice Productions at Doroney Park, Rand Family Productions, Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center in Atlanta, and Advanced Entertainment Group at Sea World in Orlando, Florida.
With education being a very significant aspect of Rachel's life, she graduated Charter Arts with a scholarship to Moravian College, where she is currently a junior studying English and Writing. She hopes to have a career as a writer, whether writing novels or screenplays. When she graduates Moravian, she plans to continue her professional skating career while touring in the US and internationally.
Rachel acknowledges Charter Arts as a vital stepping stone in her life; where she was able to gain opportunities she would not have otherwise, and where she worked with instructors who had a strong hand in providing her the essentials and aid to help reach her goals.
Katie is a 2009 graduate, who majored in Dance at Charter Arts. She is now studying exercise science/ pre-occupational therapy at West Chester University, with a minor in dance. She is also involved with the University Dance Company and will attend the American College Dance Festival. She works as an occupational therapy aide, as well as a dance teacher in classroom, private and disability settings.
Katie says, "Charter Arts steered me on the right path. I have learned in my classes at college that a child is more likely to be successful if they are supported and have a strong passion. Charter Arts helps kids develop their passion for the arts. The school helped me to develop good friends and helped me prepare for the future."

She loves the feel of a smaller school, and enjoys the diverse student body. She has met many international students who have become great friends. Octavia is majoring in biology and says, "Because I am a visual learner, I feel that my visual art training at Charter Arts helped me appreciate illustrations, which is so helpful in biology, because pictures are used to illustrate many concepts. I have an advantage."
Diomi graduated from Charter Arts in 2010. He went on to earn an Associates degree from The Institute of Audio Research in NYC in November 2011. Diomi finished his casework in just eighteen months, and he will continue his education at the City College of New York studying Journalism. Everyone who knows "D" knows that he is focused on attaining professional success as a R&B singer. Diomi is working everyday to ensure that his dreams are realized.
In addition to working on his music and education every day, Diomi works as a dispatcher on Wall Street at night, and also works with his aunt as a volunteer with incarcerated women to help them gain confidence and skills necessary to achieve their goals.
Diomi loves Manhattan. His education and ambition has put him in front of record labels such as; Def Jam, Interscope, Universal, Warner Music Group and Young Money/Cash Money. Diomi is busy performing original songs throughout New York City and he is working on plans to tour in Australia this spring.

Colleen was an Instrumental Music major at Charter Arts, where she was a cellist and loved every minute of it. She graduated in 2010 and is now a sophomore Animal Science major at Cornell University.
"When I graduated Charter Arts, I felt very well prepared for the challenges of college. Through the arts education that I received from Charter Arts, I learned to balance and prepare for a demanding college schedule and workload. The combination of art and academic instruction allowed me to appreciate the interconnectedness of all subjects presented by a large research university. The diverse environment experienced at Charter Arts also mirrors that of the international and multicultural population of Cornell University. "
At Cornell, Colleen is involved in the CU Raptor Program, the Pre-Vet Society, Block and Bridle, and the CU Wildlife Health Center (WHC). As part of the CU Raptor Program, she works with various non-releasable, wild raptor species and presents them to audiences at educational seminars. As a volunteer at the WHC, she assists veterinarians specialized in wildlife medicine.
Colleen continues to play cello and plans on joining a chamber ensemble. Her future plans include completing her undergraduate education with a Bachelors of Science in Animal Science and continuing to a graduate school to study Veterinary Medicine and become a mixed practice veterinarian.

We're sorry, 'No Mistakes Only Lessons' Wooden Sign is no longer available
Why not try one of these instead?
Delightful solid wood vintage hanging sign painted in shades of black, brown and white with the wording 'Remember there are no mistakes, only lessons'.
These gorgeous distressed wooden signs with quotes are very good at reminding us of what's important in life when all the hustle and bustle of balancing work, home and family life clouds our vision somewhat. This vintage styled' No mistakes, only lessons sign' is the perfect reminder of just how important it is to forgive ourselves from our mistakes, and simply learn from them instead.

These signs also make a lovely decoration for weddings and would look wonderful hanging on church pew ends or scattered around a wedding venue to remind your guests of just what the day is all about.

For some strange reason, I tried searching for "Google" in the Nutch demo, it got me 346265 total results, but was unbeleivably slow! took me about atleast 15 seconds to search for it.
I haven't been experiencing such speed problems with other search engines, so I'm sure its the way Nutch searches (Java?).

1626 C Hi Line Drive
Dallas, TX 75207
Category: Art Galleries
Region: Downtown & Deep Ellum
As Fort Worth celebrates its annual Fall Gallery Walk — a magical, lengthy day when art spaces filled with new work stay open from noon to dusk — Dallas is again left to fend for itself. The Design District shakes off its summer break with the standard three-hour art window Saturday. Do not panic: We're here to help. Begin at Conduit (1626 C Hi Line Drive) where local art educator, thinker and writer Stephen Lapthisophon opens a solo show called Sphere. You'll get a whole room of his paintings, which blend reused products like bacon fat, coffee grounds and eggshells with first-run media like spray paint to create controlled but unpredictable works. They're stunning in their sophistication and charming in their messiness, and since Lapthisophon will have a solo show at the DMA next month, shouldn't you see him now, in this intimate environment? Yes, of course you should. It runs from 6 to 8 p.m. Visit conduitgallery.com. Next, run over to Red Arrow Contemporary (1130 Dragon St., Suite 110). That's where you'll find a four-way discussion on power politics and gender identity, argued by Libby Row, Colette Copeland, Gabriel Martinez and Angela Fraleigh in The Sweetest Taboo. You've seen Copeland's Victorian lady brutes pop up on LCD screens at 500X and on a projector at Dallas VideoFest. Here they'll get more breathing room (should those corsets allow it). Meanwhile, Martinez flips the gaze onto men in peril, Fraleigh calls dibs on presenting the gender divide with collage-style painting, and Row brings the humorous side of '50s domesticity to the forefront with selections from her series "Pink." This one goes from 6 to 9 p.m. Visit redarrowcontemporary.com. Pick-and-roll over to Circuit 12 (1130 Dragon St., Suite 150) for TRIPPER, a solo exhibition by Chicago-based artist Josh Reames, whose work was a stand-out in the gallery's 2012 group show, White Noise. Still on the fence? Here are a few words from the exhibition's description paragraph: LSD, vacation, ego, Sphinx, ZZ Top. Perfect. You'll check it out from 6 to 10 p.m. Visit circuit12.com. Close the night out at 500X (500 Exposition Ave.) for its opener, The Members Show. That's where you'll find the rascally talent roster of Bernardo Cantu, Colette Copeland, Diane Durant, Michael Francis, Timothy Harding, Clayton Hurt, Joel Kiser, Shelby David Meier, Bruce Monroe, Chancellor Page, Elaine Pawlowicz, Irby Pace, John Alexander Taylor and Giovanni Valderas, all of whom will keep 500X running for another great year. The Members Show is a must-see, both to familiarize yourself with the artist-run gallery's current lineup and to find inventive new stuff you haven't noticed before. Check it out from 7 to 10 p.m. Visit 500x.org.
Tuesdays-Saturdays. Starts: Sept. 7. Continues through Oct. 5, 2013

The Sad State Of FSF's High Priority Projects
Published on 15 October 2011 09:58 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
Free Software
57 Comments
With the Free Software Foundation having
removed GNU PDF from their list of high priority projects
after declaring the open-source work to implement proper Adobe PDF support a success, what's left to the FSF high priority project list and how are those remaining projects coming along?
Below is also the list of the high priority projects and a brief status update for each -- based upon my knowledge of the project's and what I've been able to turn up regarding recent work during some searches. Likely in
the forums
will be additional information and thoughts from Phoronix readers.
Gnash is the open-source Adobe Flash/SWF player that's approved by the FSF, hosted by GNU.org, and has been in development for several years to provide an alternative to the binary-only Adobe Flash Player for Linux. Gnash has been in development for about six years and
went into beta in 2008
and has seen several releases since, with the latest release being
earlier this year
. While this GPL-licensed Flash Player is of interest to many, there are few developers involved (the active ones could be counted on one hand) and SWFv7 is their latest fully supported version. There's partial support for SWFv8, SWFv9, and SWFv10, but it's far from being capable of supporting all the latest features found in the modern Flash Player 10 and now Flash Player 11. Gnash supports Cairo and OpenGL rendering along with
VA-API for video acceleration
. Gnash also works on multiple CPU architectures.
Gnash is still actively developed (you can see
its Git information on the web
), but capturing more attention as of late has been
. Lightspark has
a fairly interesting graphics engine
, offers just-in-time compilation of ActionScript using LLVM, multi-threading support, and other technical advantages. Lightspark also targets more modern SWF features and ActionScript 3 support where Gnash is lacking. If Lightspark can't handle something, it's also capable of falling back to using Gnash.
Regardless of whether it's Lightspark or Gnash, there's still a long way to go in reaching a feature parity to the official Adobe Flash Player for Linux. It's even still common for YouTube support to break in Gnash/Lightspark and requires then updating the open-source player. It will be a while before this can be removed from the Free Software Foundation's high-priority list.
This is the free software project once known as LinuxBIOS where it aims to replace proprietary BIOS/firmware with a clean open-source implementation. It's not only a free software goal to free up the motherboard BIOS, but the Free Software Foundation also desires free BIOS implementations for graphics cards too. Coreboot has matured a lot over the past few years and now it supports a wide variety of motherboards (
Coreboot motherboard list
) on many different chipsets (
the device list
), but it's still far from mainstream.
Running an open-source program on your desktop that can potentially crash is one thing, but users are much more apprehensive about flashing their BIOS and potentially bricking their system. The big problem for Coreboot is the lack of mainstream hardware shipping with it rather than the proprietary offerings from American Megatrends, etc. The big hardware vendor that supports Coreboot is AMD; the company has pledged to
support Coreboot with all future CPUs
. AMD backs Coreboot with code drops, chipset/CPU specifications, and hardware samples. Even with AMD's backing, motherboard vendors still aren't ready to use Coreboot on production hardware, but I've seen it
beginning to take the interest of some OEMs
and we might see it on some select products beginning this quarter.
Coreboot has also garnered the interest of the CME Group and some other financial institutions as the quicker hardware initialization, open-source nature, and other benefits are certainly in their interest. Thanks to them, we may be seeing Coreboot appear on some more server hardware going forward. It could be an interesting 2012 for the Coreboot project, but still this isn't likely to move off the Free Software Foundation's high priority list in the foreseeable future.
Free Software Replacement For Skype:
The Free Software Foundation also wants a replacement to the proprietary Skype program. According to the Free Software Foundation, "Skype is seducing free software users into using proprietary software, often two users at a time." Now that
Microsoft owns Skype
, the Free Software Foundation is likely to hate Skype even more.
The Free Software Foundation isn't backing a single project for this goal, but rather they encourage people to contribute to projects like Ekiga, Twinkle, Coccinella, QuteCom, and SIP-Communicator. Having a free software program that can replace all of Skype's features and at the same time even be semi-popular is a rather lofty goal, but at least it will likely move off the high priority list sooner than Coreboot or Gnash.
Free Software Video Editing:
Besides a Skype replacement, another very sore spot on the Linux desktop is the lack of useful open-source non-linear video editing applications. The Free Software Foundation encourages users to support Kino, Cinelerra, AVIDemux, Kdenlive, LiVES, Lumiera, PiTiVi, Blender, and Open Movie Editor. Not on the list but of growing interest and popularity is
, and
. Of all the free software projects working on an open-source video editor, the last two listed are perhaps the most promising.
Free Google Earth Replacement:
While Google is quite friendly towards Linux and open-source (among the most friendly), the Free Software Foundation doesn't like it that Google Earth is proprietary software and it's a high priority for them that it gets replaced. The FSF wants a free software replacement that uses Open Street Maps, but that data alone tends to be less than stellar and not really comparable to Google's trove of useful data. I don't even really agree with the Free Software Foundation's listing of this as a high priority project for the success of free software; a free software version of Google Earth isn't going to make or break it for free software and the Linux desktop. I (and likely many more users) would much rather see language learning software (i.e. Rosetta Stone replacement) or proper tax/accounting programs (i.e. TurboTax replacement) on this list instead, which would affect a lot more people.
GNU/Linux Distributions Committed To Freedom:
The Free Software Foundation wants users to support distributions like Trisquel,
, and other Linux distributions that contain
free software. The list of Free Software Foundation distributions that they deem to align with their goals is
listed here
. There's only nine of them and the Debian/Ubuntu-derived gNewSense is likely the only one you may have ever heard of. It's unlikely any of them will ever gain much adoption.
GNU Octave:
The Matlab program is popular in academia for numerical computations, but the Free Software Foundation wishes to replace it with GNU Octave. Octave is still actively developed with the most recent release coming just earlier this week.
Replacement Of OpenDWG Libraries:
OpenDWG is a collection of CAD files, a specification for CAD format, and proprietary software for manipulating these files. I'm not too sure why this is deemed a high priority project either, but the LibreDWG project (as recommended by the FSF) is still in alpha development with no releases yet. The last commit to the LibreDWG Git repository was in January of 2011.
Reversible Debugging in GDB:
Reversible debugging support is being worked on for the GDB debugger. There is already some reversible-debugging support in place and it just needs to be extended.
Free Software Drivers for Network Routers:
The Free Software Foundation wants free software drivers for network routers, since many of them right now are proprietary and are needed for projects like OrangeMesh. However, there isn't any concerted effort at this point to provide open-source drivers for network routers en mass. The Free Software Foundation just recommends contacting the device manufacturers and asking them for NDA-free specifications and/or open-source code.
Free Software Version of Oracle Forms:
Oracle Forms is part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware and used by various enterprise applications. The Free Software Foundation goal for this project is to make a replacement to Oracle Forms front-end that allows people to use free SQL databases rather than Oracle's database software. There isn't actually any code being worked on here yet, but they just cite
a mailing list
to go to if interested in contributing. That mailing list only has a few e-mails from April and June of this year. This isn't moving off the list in the near future.
Automatic Transcription:
There's a need for free software that's capable of automatically transcribing recordings. Like the Oracle Forms replacement, there isn't any real work going on here at the moment, or at least not publicly. The Free Software Foundation just recommends interested users
go to this Wiki
to discuss.
PowerVR Drivers:
This is the project talked about on Phoronix a few times this year. In February the FSF deemed
reverse-engineering PowerVR to be a high priority
, but
there isn't any activity
. The not recognized community developer is waiting to receive money/donations before committing to this work beyond the bits that have been done for reverse-engineering USSE opcodes. The project's goals does include creating a Gallium3D PowerVR driver and using LLVM to take advantage of multi-core SoCs.
Those are the Free Software Foundation's high priority projects that are still outstanding. The list of the Free Software Foundation's "high priority projects" can be found at
. It's unlikely any of them will be dropped off the list in the immediate future for reaching completion, either due to their very lofty goals (e.g. Gnash and Coreboot) while the other projects just aren't seeing any activity even though the Free Software Foundation deems them a high priority (e.g. Oracle Forms replacement, automatic transcription, LibreDWG, PowerVR drivers). The Free Software Foundation does collect donations for these high-priority projects, but it's unclear how the funds are spent or how much money has been collected. Long story short, being on the Free Software Foundation's high priority list really doesn't mean much with some of these "important" projects not even being actively developed or even discussed.

Mr. Vladimir Putin intends that the current Olympic games be forever stamped with his glory. Sochi is being protected by a "Ring of Steel." Thus has spoken Russia's current Man of Steel, who sees himself as the rightful descendant of the original, although Mr. Putin's bared breasts on such frequent display tend to undermine the desired effect; as with most sexagenarians, there is at least as much suet as steel to his pectorals. But of course the security forces who embody Putin's will and compose the Ring, over 30,000 strong, are younger and fresher than their master, if perhaps less practiced in ultraviolence than he. So Chechen and Dagestani mad bombers have been put on notice. The mad bombers, however, are no slouches themselves in the destructive arts; witness the murderous explosions last December in Volgograd, the gray city formerly known as Stalingrad. Such a clever choice of target that was, done with the wit one has come to expect of militant Islam: men of steel come and go, but jihad is forever. One cannot but be apprehensive, then, that this Olympiad will be known less for sporting excellence than for some terrorist abomination or for the hardline crackdown in the name of civilization, or the Russian simulacrum thereof. At some point every athlete and every spectator in Sochi will sense the danger in being there.
It wasn't always so. One of the biggest thrills of my young life at the age of 18 was attending the Summer Olympics in the company of my Dartmouth College classmate, and dearest friend since we were both eleven, Mikael Salovaara. We were there to see only one event: men's whitewater kayaking, an Olympic sport for the first time, and for which a man-made course had been engineered where no water flowed before.
In those days, Dartmouth was a haven for jocks with a sufficiency of brainpower: most everyone was a high school valedictorian who had also starred in at least one sport, and who was revved up at the thought of eventual success as corporate lawyer, orthopedic surgeon, newspaper columnist, or mergers and acquisitions wizard. Mikael fit that description precisely, but he was already bored by the ballgames of his glorious boyhood. So during his freshman year he took up whitewater kayaking—building his own fiberglass boat, learning the life-saving Eskimo roll in the swimming pool, and subsequently trying his skill and nerve on swift and treacherous living streams, including some real killers. Mikael's nerve was never in doubt; his skill would always lag somewhat. His sporting brethren tagged him with the honorific "Suicide Mike," or simply "Suicide," for his sublime indifference toward the prospect of violent watery death, which was ever imminent in the next cascade or whirlpool or haystack, or the one after that. Suicide was the most beloved of this band of brothers. Courage counted for a great deal.
A lot of those guys were very good indeed at this sport. One of them stood out above the rest: Eric "The Hammer" Evans, the national whitewater champion, who would go on to defend that title successfully for some ten years in a row. Evans was The Hammer because he smashed his way through roaring water with strokes of preternatural force and deftness, and because he excelled in the post-game decompression known locally as pounding toxins—emptying a keg and the convivial dogpile aftermath constituting the basis of social life in that quaint masculine enclave.

The WEEKLY STANDARD podcast, with editor William Kristol on the week that was, Obamacare, the Sochi Olympics, immigration reform and the 2014 election cycle.
Secretary of State John Kerry was asked about security at the Olympics. He said he wasn't too concerned, but then brought up the Boston Marathon.
"Well, obviously, people have heard about the events that took place in Russia previously. And there's been a lot of chatter about security and it's a concern, but it's not something – I mean, if somebody said to me, 'I'm thinking of going to the Olympics,' I'd say, 'Go and have a terrific time,'" Kerry told Al Koken of Comcast SportsNet in an interview.
Former speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi says Sochi is a "very bad choice to have the Olympics":
The Sochi Olympics are busy setting some sort of record for glitches and one of them has attracted the attentions of the indefatigable Senator Charles Schumer who is perturbed by the Russian's unwillingness to allow the importation of yogurt.
Richard Engel reported last night on NBC that all visitors to the Sochi Olympics are getting hacked as soon as their electronic devices connect to any Russian network:
The White House press secretary says in a statement that President Obama met with his national security team today in the Situation Room to discuss security at the upcoming Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
The Olympics – ancient and modern divisions – were intended to be celebrations where men laid down their arms and engaged in competitions that did not end with bodies strewn across the landscape. The intentions were noble but the games – especially those of today – were inevitably corrupted by the usual things. Politics, avarice, commercialism, drugs …
The White House released this readout of a phone call between President Obama and President Putin of Russia today:
If the human interest bits on how one of the athletes in the curling competition overcame a childhood trauma of one sort or another, the over-the-top heraldic music, and the supercharged commentary were not enough to get you to skip the Olympics – or at least watch it via DVR – then this ought to chase you away:
As the winter holidays approached, the beleaguered Russian opposition had a rare occasion to celebrate: Russia's three best-known political prisoners were unexpectedly granted their freedom. On December 20, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, the former oil tycoon whose arrest a decade ago escalated Vladimir Putin's war on independent politics in Russia, received a presidential pardon and was flown to Germany, where his mother is undergoing cancer treatment.
President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama will be skipping the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. So will Vice President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill Biden.

Leave it to the Hughes to start this wonderful non-profit venture. In my years of coaching Special Olympics soccer, I had the pleasure to coach son Charlie and met his parents. They are the most generous, grateful people around and I feel honored to have met them. You guys Rock! Cheers to much success in this wonderful new year.

Ada's Cafe is a wonderful endeavor, but most of all, their food is delicious! We had the pleasure of attending the event last Sunday that they were preparing for when Ms. Kenrick was interviewing them. Wonderful food and the servers did a terrific job also. A perfect combo of philanthropy with what I am confident will be a successful business!

Great story. Wonderful example of true community service.
on Nov 25, 2013 at 10:39 am
Ada's is a terrific organization that we should all support as it is a hometown effort helping our kids here in Palo Alto. Kathleen works wonders not only with food but the young people she mentors!
on Nov 25, 2013 at 11:05 am
What an inspiring story to kick off a week when we all express our thanks.
Thank you for the work you are doing for the community!
on Nov 25, 2013 at 12:25 pm
Thank you to the Weekly for this great story on Ada's cafe! We can't wait to visit!
on Nov 25, 2013 at 1:38 pm
Kathleen Hughes and her terrific Ada's Cafe staff are, indeed, a true community treasure. I recently had an event catered at my home. The food was delicious, and the Ada's staff members were wonderful.
The article mentions briefly that the opening of Ada's Cafe has been delayed because the Mitchell Park Community Center is over a year behind schedule. I'm not surprised that the ever-upbeat Kathleen Hughes didn't mention it in the article, but the delays at MPCC have caused hardship for Ada's. As it waits for the delayed Community Center to open, Ada's continues to incur staff, training and other fixed costs which cannot yet be offset by Cafe profits.
It would be great if our community would rally behind Ada's to support them during this tough delay. To make a donation, go to the Ada's Cafe website at adascafe.org. Another idea? Hire them to cater an event for you! Contact information is available on the website.
on Nov 25, 2013 at 6:46 pm
Can't wait until Ada's is open!!!! What a fantastic idea and a non-profit I am thrilled to support! I hope there will be plenty of seating!
on Nov 25, 2013 at 9:47 pm
Home cooking in the very best sense - made with lots of skill and loads of heart.
on Mar 7, 2014 at 9:52 pm
Hi Kathleen :
Remember me. I was your employee whern you first started out. I am so excited for you that you actually opened your cafe. Congradulations. Keep up the good work. I am currently working for Huckleberry Cafe at Futures Explored. This is an agency that helps people with developmental disabilities. I would love to hear from you. [Phone number removed.]
Your Friend,
Mike McKenzie

Special to the Daily News
It was 14 degrees when I got up this morning. The sun has warmed the day to a toasty 20 degrees. I'm in eastern Massachusetts, near the New Hampshire state line, in a town called Groton.
Carl Flowers has been raising Christmas trees here for more than 12 years. He grows white pine, blue spruce, Scotch pine and just about every variety of Christmas tree you could want. A retired schoolteacher from Broward County, Flowers has been learning as he goes. While he once ordered his seedlings from Maine, he prefers a grower in Pennsylvania. More of those trees survive, he said.
He has also learned how much difference manure makes. "Before I loaded these fields up with manure, the seedlings hardly grew for the first couple of years," Flowers told me. "But now they grow enough to actually need pruning by the second year."
Flowers' farm is a "you-cut" operation. Families drive out the winding country roads to his turn-off. Then they hike over a small portion of his 133 acres to find the perfect tree. While I am visiting with Flowers, Rick Hagarty, a fireman in Worchester, Mass., brings his son, Chris, and grandson Brandon with him to pick out the family tree.
They choose a spruce just over 6 feet tall.
"I think we got the best one," Hagarty said proudly. "This is the first time we've cut our own tree. It's something I want Chris and Brandon to remember."
Flowers also makes fresh wreaths that he ships nationwide. Sally Alice Unkles is one satisfied Palm Beach customer.
"Every year, I look forward to my wreath arriving," Unkles said. "It makes the whole house smell like Christmas."
Despite all the challenges Flowers faces as a small farmer, he said it's not a bad way to spend his days.
But it sure is cold!

NASA Probe Finds Second Pac-Man Moon on Saturn
Cassini already spotted the Pac-Man thermal shape on the Mimas moon in 2010, and this second shape - found in Tethys, one of Saturn's 62 icy moons - shows that warmer areas in this pattern could be pretty normal for moons.
"Finding a second Pac-Man in the Saturn system tells us that the processes creating these Pac-Men are more widespread than previously thought," said Carly Howett, lead author of a paper on Tethys.

"NASA Probe Finds Second Pac-Man Moon on Saturn"
OK, the neither the moons nor the Pac-Man features are "on" Saturn; they orbit around Saturn as all moons do around their primaries.
The headline is ambiguous, and my first interpretation is that a new moon had been found; this is a newly discovered feature of a moon which we've known about for over 200 years.

It's the busiest time of the year for airports in Southwest Florida. Thousands of snowbirds go there to escape the wintery weather every year. So you can imagine the angst in Naples, when pilots discovered the airport would start rationing fuel.
Naples Municipal Airport last week issued it's own NOTAM, telling pilots it had run out of Jet-A. Now, the airport storage tanks weren't completely dry -- authorities always keep a reserve for emergency response aircraft. But as far as general aviation and commercial pilots were concerned, the pumps were closed.
Doug Van Dyken, who works at Coporate Flight, Inc., said he never expected the airport to stop selling fuel. "I was totally shocked when I got there and couldn't get gas," he said in an interview with the Naples Daily News. "One airplane (pilot) begged and pleaded that he had to leave. They came over and sold them 75 gallons to get to where he was going on the other side of the state."
The fuel situation at Naples Municipal is already a sore subject for pilots, who said the city shouldn't be in the aircraft fueling business at all. "They (the businesses) could charge whatever they want to. Let them compete as capitalists in a head-to-head approach."
Less than 40 miles away, at Southwest Florida International Airport, FBO executives couldn't understand the Naples fuel shortage.
"We had no problem getting fuel (on Monday)," Vincent Wolanin, chairman of PrivateSky Aviation, told the Daily News. "We're stocked (with fuel) and ready to go. We can take all airplanes Naples wants to send here, and we'll fuel them up."
What's going on in Naples? Gail Cureton, who speaks for the Naples Airport Authority, said the field was shorted on a fuel delivery. She said for two days last week, the fuel company sent only two trucks a day -- not the five trucks normally sent. "We basically were not given the amount of fuel that we ordered," she told the Daily News.
The shortage at Naples Municipal is even more noticable when you consider the case of Jet 1 Center. As ANN has reported, that company is locked in a legal fight with the airport authority after a local judge ordered Jet 1 to stop selling fuel in December 2003. General Manager Jeff Ellston told the Daily News, when his company fueled aircraft, there was always enough fuel to go around.
