TrueHoop Commenter Solves The Lockout!
It is done. Problem solved. Lockout over. Let's get to work.
A commenter on TrueHoop on Thursday summarized the various offers and proposals made during collective bargaining so far (seen in the chart above, h/t TrueHoop), you can see a lot of the problems in negotiation. The pink line favors the players too much, the yellow line favors the owners too much. The light blue line -- the "flex cap" plan that would keep salaries flat for the 10-year life of the bargaining agreement -- clearly is something the players are not four.
As Henry Abbott notes, it is the dark blue line -- the "Break Even" line -- that might be the middle ground that gets this whole thing solved eventually. This line represents the point where owners would theoretically "break even" and regain at least a balanced spreadsheet. As has been noted several times, sports teams are not all about profit all the time. Suddenly they are and this "break even" line might be as far as the players are willing to go (you assume things will get better economically).
"(F)or the purposes of these talks, and this chart, I think we can safely assume that the NBA owners are not going to agree to a deal that projects league-wide losses," Abbott writes. "They want a deal that projects a league in the money, and this is that line.
"The best the union could do, I suspect, is to negotiate a deal that is precisely on that line -- or a line like it, created with the union's better financial insight -- and even that may be too hopeful. Owners want profits. And that's not weird. It's the way of business. If there aren't profits for owners, in pretty much any business, well, the hard reality is that the owner can and maybe should simply shut the doors and walk away. As employees, you want all the money you can get, but clearly not so much that you topple the entire enterprise."
Whenever this bargaining gets settled, it likely will be near that line.
If only negotiations were as simple as drawing up a chart and finding some middle ground. Alas, with so much time remaining before the season and no pressure or deadlines to meet, the union and the owners will continue this strange dance called collective bargaining. Getting to that dark blue line that represents an agreement is going to be a long process.
The outlook is still bleak.
Top-level negotiators for both sides are meeting next week in New York in just the second meeting since the lockout began. This meeting will consist of only deputy commissioner Adam Silver, commissioner David Stern, Spurs owner and head of the owners labor committee Peter Holt, NBPA executive director Billy Hunter and NBPA president Derek Fisher. This smaller setting might generate some movement, you hope.
But that is not stopping the two sides from preparing for their hearing in front of the National Labor Relations Board or trading barbs in the press.
Stern's zinger about Eddy Curry at a meeting during All-Star Weekend made the rounds and NBPA vice president Maurice Evans had some choice words about the owners' alleged good faith bargaining efforts. He said the players, like the owners, are ready and able to sustain losing the complete season.
If only things were as simple as splitting the difference on a chart.

text: The trial against the former Ukrainian PM has sparked international criticism. In September the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee [official website] unanimously passed [JURIST report] a resolution [text] calling for Ukraine to release Tymoshenko from prison. It condemned the current Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych [official website] for his role in the politically motivated imprisonment. In August the Ukrainian Supreme Court [official website, in Ukrainian] upheld Tymoshenko's abuse of office conviction [JURIST report], reasoning that there would be no basis to rule in favor of the former PM and that the prison sentence is appropriate considering the charges against her. During the appeal the government denied allegations that the criminal proceedings against Tymoshenko were a measure initiated by Yanukovich to prevent her from participating in the October elections. The decision came only a day after the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) [official website] held a hearing [JURIST report] on Tymoshenko's appeal. Also in August Ukrainian prosecutors urged the Supreme Court not to hear her appeal [JURIST report]. Prosecutors told the court that Tymoshenko's trial had already established her guilt in the case, and asked the judges maintain her seven-year sentence [JURIST report] in the case.

Day 1
Arrive Marrakech.
Day 2
In the morning we have a guided tour (on foot) to some of the main sights of Marrakech and the afternoon is free for you to further explore this vibrant city. You may choose to take a caleche (horse-drawn carriage) round the old city walls, visit one of the palaces or the Saadien tombs. Haggle for some last-minute bargains in the souks or chill at the tranquil Jardin Majorelle. Finally, no trip to Marrakech is complete without a nighttime visit to the main square, the Djema el Fna.
Day 3
Today we have a long drive over the High Atlas Mountains (6 hours) for a complete contrast to the bustling city life of Marrakech. The road up to the mountains is a real switchback route but very scenic. Eventually we cross the Tizi'n'Tichka which, at 2260m, is the highest road pass in Morocco. We then continue to beautiful southern Morocco and enjoy views of unending palm groves of the Draa Valley. After our journey through pre-Saharan landscapes, we arrive into another desert landscape and our charming camp for the evening near Hamdour Village.
Day 4
After meeting our mules and muleteers this morning, we start our first walk through an impressive maze of canyons created by the rivers, remote villages and oases. As we walk through the Sahro, we are struck by a strange world of lunar landscapes and rocky plateaux and continue to enjoy the sights from our lunch spot in Berkirk Village. We continue north until we arrive at our camp for the evening in the beautiful village of Tajalacht (1450m).
6 hours walking, Alt gain 450m, Alt loss 100m
Day 5
Our destination today is the crest of Foudoud (1900m). We follow a network of trails at the foot of Jebel Tine Wayour and enjoy a picnic lunch at Ighissi Gorges (1625m) before embarking on our easy climb. We enjoy some wonderful views and absorb this inspiring landscape before arriving at our camp for the evening.
6 hours walking, Alt gain 600m, Alt loss 150m
Day 6
We have an exciting walk today up to the summit of Jebel Amlal (2500m) where we will enjoy breathtaking views of the bizarre geological formations of this area as well as the snowclad mountains of the southern High Atlas in the distance. After our gentle climb, we enjoy lunch at the summit and then descend to the grazing pastures at the bottom of the valley and our camp for the night at Almou N'Ourag (2200m).
7 hours walking, Alt gain 750m, Alt loss 550m
Day 7
Our views today are very different as they seem very similar to the Ahaggar Mountains of Algeria, (also known as Hoggar). We climb to Kouaouch Pass (2460m) for splendid views over the entire Sahro Massif and then trek down to the hamlet of Igli, which perfectly sits at the entrance to Afourer Gorges.
6 hours walking, Alt gain 260m, Alt loss 760m
Day 8
As we pass through Taghourt, we discover some wonderful volcanic terrain with strange rocky outcrops before our next stop in Tadaout n'Tiblah, one of the highlights of the trek. From here, we enjoy the best views of Bab n'Ali (1350m), an incredible tall rock pinnacle known as 'Gates of Ali'. The bizarre surrounding landscape is formed of limestone pinnacles, rocky outcrops and red black volcanic peaks. We continue to our camp for the evening through the small gorges of Ighazzoun (1250m).
6½ hours walking, Alt gain 500m, Alt loss 800m
Day 9
Today we descend through small oases and cultivated fields bordered by almond trees and return to the quaint village of Hamdour, where we meet the vehicles for our transfer (4 hours) to yet another impressive but very different landscape.
1 hour walking, Alt gain 0m, Alt loss 100m
Day 10
After meeting our camels and camel drivers, we depart for a full day trek and see small ochre coloured sand dunes scattered over an immense desert plateau. We arrive in the early afternoon at Oued Naam (600m) for some time to relax and enjoy the splendid backdrop of Jebel Bani.
5 hours walking, Alt gain 100m, Alt loss 50m
Day 11
Our camel trek continues through a stony desert and finally the Bouguern Dunes, that build up the Saharan dune landscape around Oued Laatache (550m), where we camp.
6 hours walking, Alt gain 50m, Alt loss 100m
Day 12
Our highlight today is walking amid the dunes. We pass a source, a well or some palm trees that act as a reminder of man's passage through this area. We set up camp at the foot of the highest dune, Abidliya (120m) in Erg Cheggaga.
5 hours walking, Alt gain 50m, Alt loss 50m
Day 13
We continue through the dune landscape where the dunes become more and more spread out. Today we are more likely to encounter some nomad camps, which are easily recognised from the dark brown tents made from goat or camel hair. We end our desert experience and trekking challenge as we arrive at Erg El Ghoul, known for its slightly rose tinted sand.
5 hours walking, Alt gain 200m, Alt loss 200m
Day 14
We have our longest journey today (8 hours) but an exciting adventure in 4WD across the great palm groves surrounding Foum Zguid. We continue to popular Tazenakht, known for its magnificent Berber carpets, for lunch and then on to Ouarzazate. We arrive in the mid afternoon so there is time to explore this former Foreign Legion stronghold and Kasbah Taourirt, which was once the home of the famous Glaoui family that dominated the South of Morocco for a century.
Day 15
Trip ends after breakfast. Public buses are available in Ouarzazate in order to return to Marrakech.

All-new flavors and ideas for the revolutionary bite-size delights that have taken the marketplace by storm.
The ingenious invention of the Babycakes� cupcake maker has been met with unprecedented popularity and this resulted in 175 Best Babycakes� Cupcake Maker Recipes becoming a runaway bestseller. The creative and sumptuous recipes resonated with consumers and retailers alike -- fun, bite-sized enjoyment without the guilt.
This incredible popularity and demand has prompted another book on the topic -- more in-depth, and with slightly more sophisticated flavors that reflect both current cupcake trends and old-fashioned delicacies. It's a complete and wide-ranging cookbook that still features all of the fun of the original but also contains more detail on specialty uses like holidays, occasions, entertaining, cooking for and with kids, smaller servings, gluten-free, dairy free and even vegan diets. As well, due to strong consumer feedback, the savory section has been expanded to feature more appetizers, biscuits and more.
Dozens of large step-by-step photos at the beginning of the book depict decorating ideas and skills, providing easy-to-follow inspiration and ideas. They include photos for cupcakes, pie crusts, phyllo cups, wonton cups and an array of fillings and frostings. Both novice and experienced bakers will appreciate these detailed photos.
Packed with fun, flavor and delectable cake morsels of every imaginable flavor, color and coating, the incredibly creative chapters offer unique ideas for countless recipes and occasions. They'll take you from breakfast and after-school snacks to bridal showers and elegant parties.
Kathy Moore and Roxanne Wyss are leading experts on small appliances and they wrote the booklet that is packed with the Babycakes� cake pop maker by Select Brands. They are the founders of The Electrified Cooks, www.pluggedintocooking.com.

Facebook Rape ArrestCHERRYVILLE, N.C.-- Detectives charged 19 year old Robert Weaver Tuesday with a felony count of statutory rape. They say he met a 13 year old girl on Facebook sometime between August and September. Police say he picked her up from her Lincoln County home and brought her to his house. Detectives say Weaver has 1,200 facebook friends, many of which are girls. We checked Tuesday night and Weaver's page has been removed. Police do want to talk to any other possible victims. |

Some of them are strangers to Fenway Park, faces from a distant past. But they continue to come forward, pouring out memories of sexual abuse they say they suffered at the hands of a trusted Red Sox supervisor.
The toll of men who claim they were violated as youths by the team's late clubhouse manager Donald J. Fitzpatrick has grown again, with a former Kansas City clubhouse attendant, Gerald Armstrong, alleging that Fitzpatrick repeatedly molested him in the late 1960s amid the worst sexual abuse scandal in Major League Baseball history.
With Armstrong's allegations, there are now 20 men demanding a combined $100 million — $5 million each — from the Sox for misconduct they claim Fitzpatrick committed from the 1960s until he left the team in 1991.
Fitzpatrick pleaded guilty in 2002 to four counts of attempted sexual battery against boys younger than 12 between 1975 and 1989 at the team's former spring training headquarters in Winter Haven, Fla. He died in 2005 at age 76 while serving a 10-year suspended sentence.
Florida investigators said they linked Fitzpatrick to nine other alleged victims in Winter Haven but were unable to prosecute the cases because the statute of limitations had expired. Several of those men were among seven former clubhouse attendants who sued the Sox in 2001 for $3.15 million over Fitzpatrick's alleged misconduct.
"Looking back, I'm not shocked that he continued to do to other kids what he did to me,'' Armstrong said of Fitzpatrick, who joined the Sox as a batboy in 1944. "But I'm shocked the Red Sox continued to employ him for so many years.''
Fitzpatrick was a favorite of the franchise's longtime owners, Tom and Jean Yawkey. Over the years, he befriended other leaders throughout the game, from Hall of Famers Ted Williams and Carl Yastrzemski to baseball commissioner Bud Selig.
Fitzpatrick's case has proven troublesome for the current Sox owners, who bought the team from the Jean R. Yawkey Trust in 2002. In acquiring the franchise, John W. Henry and his partners assumed the team's liabilities, and within months of buying the club settled the multimillion-dollar suit with the seven men in Winter Haven.
The Sox now are weighing the demands of Armstrong and 19 others who have come forward in the last nine months. The team's attorney, Daniel Goldberg, issued a statement citing the 2002 settlement and reiterated previous comments about the case.
"The Red Sox have always viewed the actions of Mr. Fitzpatrick to be abhorrent,'' Goldberg said. "When the team, then under a previous ownership group, became aware of the allegations against Mr. Fitzpatrick in 1991, he was promptly relieved of his duties.
"The club is unaware of any specifics regarding the matters brought forward recently by this particular individual whose claim dates back to the 1960s. Given the sensitive nature of the matter, we will not have further comment.''
Because the statute of limitations has expired on nearly all the recent cases, the Sox have no legal obligation in the matter. But numerous entities, including the Roman Catholic Church, have paid settlements to alleged victims who lacked legal standing.
"The Red Sox have a moral obligation to resolve these cases,'' said Mitchell Garabedian, who won tens of millions of dollars for victims in the church scandal and represents the 20 men suing the Sox. "Resolving these cases will help the victims at least partially heal and maybe gain a degree of closure in regard to these awful matters.''
Garabedian said he is investigating an additional claim against Fitzpatrick. He said another man dropped his claim because the process proved too emotionally painful.
Fitzpatrick left the Sox in 1991 after a man he had allegedly molested as a boy displayed a sign before a game in Anaheim that read, "Donald Fitzpatrick Sexually Assaulted Me.'' The club paid the man a $100,000 out-of-court settlement.
In the current cases, many of the men say Fitzpatrick abused them at Fenway Park. Others allege he molested them in his car or his condominium in Randolph, and some accuse of him of abusing them while he was traveling with the Sox.
In March, two former batboys for the Orioles claimed Fitzpatrick abused them in 1986 and 1990 at Baltimore's Memorial Stadium.
Armstrong, 57, gave a similar account of his experience in Kansas City. In 1967, he was 12 years old and working as a clubhouse attendant at Municipal Stadium.
"I felt like a king,'' he said. "Everybody at school gave me props because I had that job.''
He worked for tips, shining shoes, hanging uniforms, and running errands for the likes of Yastrzemski, Mickey Mantle, and Frank Robinson. Life was good.Continued...

Nutrition & Calorie Comments
I'm tried it with 2 cups cooked rice, 2 eggs, and less sugar. It tasted very good, but still wasn't done (according to the recipe) in two hours. Thanks for all of the reviews everyone! It helps so much when trying out the recipes... |

Really enjoyed this. I like custard and this is a good alternative while being very similar. A good way to satisfy the sweet tooth without going overboard on calories. |

I used 2 cups of rice and otherwise followed the recipe as written, it made 6 servings 178 calories each. Baked at 350 for 40 minutes and it set up great. Delicious! |

just made rice pudding from a standard cook book -- was definitely surprised to see how much sugar they added. will definitely try this one next week -- much more healthy! |
Submitted by: MADMOM1 (1/18/09) report inappropriate |
I love rice pudding, and use splenda* instead of sugar, tastes just as good, with less calories |
Submitted by: KAREN2771 (12/30/08) report inappropriate |
This was great! I baked it for 75 minutes. The knife never came out clean, but the consistency was fine. Double the recipe, since the servings are only about 1/2 cup each. Reduce the sugar by 1/2 or 1/3 to save calories. I added 1/2 tsp cinnamon plus a pinch of nutmeg stirred in before baking. |
Submitted by: KFCOOKE (10/25/08) report inappropriate |
I made this with plain rice and no fruit (as we have no raisins nor dates in the house right now). I checked after 45 minutes and I had rice soup. I let it run an additional hour at least; it came out firm and browned at edges. http://www.metrokc.gov/Health/ nutrition/recipes/ricepudd ing.htm |
Submitted by: CHIBIBARAKO (7/3/08) report inappropriate |
Want to try this but WILL use sugar and I believe Splenda, which is a chlorine molecule, is not healthy. I like dates. |
Submitted by: PAGOSAGAL (7/3/08) report inappropriate |
Excellent. I substituted the sugar for splenda and rasins for dates. As well I doubled the recipe so there was lots on hand for a quick snack. I am going to increase the rice by an additional 2/3 cup as well next time I make it. Thanks for submitting this recipe. |
Submitted by: POOHBEARKM (1/22/08) report inappropriate |
I definitely had to bake this longer than recipe called for. I added an equal amount of Splenda as regular sugar. I enjoyed this one, but didn't convince any of my family to try it. All the more for me! |
Submitted by: PAMMYLBEAR (1/1/08) report inappropriate |
I loved this recipe, I also changed the dates to rasins and I would have changed the sugar to Splenda but I didn't have enough. =) . Next time I make this I think I am going to try to cook my rice a little more. Over all GREAT!!!! |
Submitted by: ECORONADO (8/16/07) report inappropriate |
changed sugar to splenda , current(like raisins). like them better. Stired in cinnamon little heavy. like it also |
Submitted by: UNSURE (3/14/07) report inappropriate |
I love this dessert! I use brown rice and splenda in place of white rice and sugar. I also substitute raisins for dates when I can't find dates. I love that it has protein and complex carbohydrates (and dairy)! |

If you ever witness a big explosion, look around for the guy who's inconspicuously walking away. He did it.
Guys do not forget METRO LAST LIGHT
It will be a great game also and is coming this December
Playing Hitman will be an experience in itself, I can not wait to play........A great job in the making of this game.
Everything sounds Absolutely wonderful. I can't waite to experience a good game with great sound.
as a student studying for his bachelors of science in game audio production, i would love more vids and articles on this stuff!
i was mindblown the whole time, and then they had his voice at the end....OH.MY.GOSH i have like a man-crush on his voice now!!! dang!
The ORIGINAL assassin... I love that slogan. There are clumsy copycats in "menacing" hoodies, but none of them will ever best the agent 47!!!
Such a magnificent audio presentation for such a grand game , yet even 21 days before release , weapons magically appear on 47's hands when he selects them...Srsly aren't you going to change that back to the traditional almost-realistic-holstering (say almost because we are always in the premises of the gameworld)
I personally enjoyed the musical Background that Jesper Kyd made for the 3rd Game (Contracts). Gameplaywise i would really like a very hard mission where you should kill someone highly valuable like the President of some Country and something like that, i still like that it;s bad guys you kill though.
I hope hitman's absolution goes back to it darker roots of the 1st game, rather than strictly killing pedophiles, crooked pols and the such. You're a HItman,not a crusader for justice.
Sometimes sound gets swept under the rug for eye candy. But sound is mine. Max payne 3 sound was outstanding. whereas MW 3 for all its booms fell flat next to what BF 3 sound crew did for that game
I have been looking forward to this game since the team (finally) decided to bring David Bateson back. Hearing him again, I just don't understand why they thought that they could make a "Hitman" game without him. I still wish they had brought back the original voice actress for Diana and Jesper Kyd, but that is just a personal preference. Nice to see 47 back. This series has always been one of my favorites.
I think they need to fix the weapon equiping system, in blood money hitman equiped is conceilable weapons from his coat but in this one it appears in his hand. That's a step backwards in realism imo.
Very cool, I can't wait to find out that all the potential in Hitman: Absolution has truly been realized.
wow they really need to fix that walking down the stairs cause that lloks like hes just floating through those stairs.
Now that is what i call a really smart interesting game and not that crap MOH-Warfighter. I can not wait for November !!
@rhymesmatter wow, pay attention some.What you saw was PRE BETA, meaning Alpha. not even close to finished.
@blastmaster2k2 jesus, calm down. There's this new thing called "The Internet" that you may have heard of...
@Auth I have grown to be observant of sound, its one of my major gripes with COD, along with its boring graphix. Even the new Medal Of Honor has amazing sound fx
@CLOCKWORKIAN I just read about what you're refering. Wow, they were pretty much jerks.
@venom3- This is some older gameplay footage from an earlier build of the game. I wouldn't worry too much about this unless it's appearing in more recent gameplay videos.
@Drealgrin7 It was? so 21 days before release they are in Alpha? really? My i ,indeed, didn't notice that yet somehow it seems unlikely...You do understand that Alpha is like the very first samples of a game in process and that this games comes out on 20 of November...
@megaspiderweb09 yeah I heard its good. The 1st audio was great too. Too bad they lost their way with the story . Trying to copy cod and bf3. Those 2 got the mArket. They need to focous on a long campaign with a great story.
@rhymesmatter @Drealgrin7 they changed many things in a few videos(month between them) and this is as Drealgrin7 says a pre beta version, for example first he didnt take the items he just magically grab them but now (in the last video i saw) he does take the items so i think they will change this too (hope so).
@rhymesmatter @Drealgrin7 Wait. The footage in the video says "PRE-BETA BUILD", so this was probably from some months ago.
@Drealgrin7 Unless ofc for some reason they prefer to show this video with the pre-beta build so that they won't leak their RC just yet...None the less it is something to be fixed imo

Monash University
Researchers in Melbourne are conducting a study that is believed will find a correlation between gay Australian women eighteen years and over, excessive alcohol, recreational drugs and high levels of depression and anxiety.
Women who identify in this group are two to three times more likely to experience depression and anxiety than their heterosexual counterparts; but researchers say so much of this could be avoided if they received adequate support from family and friends when they came out.
It's a good reminder at the end of what has been a busy but ultimately frustrating year for the Australian GLBTQI (gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex) community who have faced a stifling juncture in their fight for the right to get married. And it's an issue we have covered extensively this year on The Punch.

1 John 5
Faith Conquers the World
1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the parent loves the child. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. 3 For the love of God is this, that we obey his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome, 4 for whatever is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, our faith. 5 Who is it that conquers the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
Testimony Concerning the Son of God
13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.
14 And this is the boldness we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. 15 And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of him. 16 If you see your brother or sister committing what is not a mortal sin, you will ask, and God will give life to such a one--to those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin that is mortal; I do not say that you should pray about that. 17 All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that is not mortal.
18 We know that those who are born of God do not sin, but the one who was born of God protects them, and the evil one does not touch them. 19 We know that we are God's children, and that the whole world lies under the power of the evil one. 20 And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding so that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

Born on February 23, 1965, in Houston, Texas, Michael Dell showed an early interest in technology and gadgets. At the age of 15, he purchased an early Apple computer in order to take it apart to see how it worked. In college, he started building computers and selling them directly to people, focusing on strong customer support and cheaper prices. Dell Computer was the world's largest PC maker.
"A bunch of guys sitting around trying to decide what we want to have done with our money after we're dead, that's not a very good idea. Forget all that. We're going to do this while we're still here and get it right."
[On his early entry into philanthropy.]
"It's through curiosity and looking at opportunities in new ways that we've always mapped our path at Dell. There's always an opportunity to make a difference."

Born on February 23, 1965, in Houston, Texas, Michael Dell helped launch the personal computer revolution in the 1980s with the creation of the Dell Computer Corporation (now known as Dell Inc.), which began in the founder's dorm room at the University of Texas and quickly blossomed into a megawatt computer company. By 1992, just eight years after Dell was founded, Michael Dell was the youngest CEO of a Fortune 500 company.
Dell's success wasn't entirely surprising. While his mother, a stockbroker, and his father, an orthodontist, pushed their son to consider medicine, Dell showed an early interest in technology and business.
A hard worker, Dell landed a job washing dishes at a Chinese restaurant at the age 12 so that he could put away money for his stamp collection. A few years later he harnassed his ability to sift through data to find new customers for newspaper subscriptions for the Houston Post, which earned the high school student $18,000 in one single year.
Intrigued by the expanding world of computers and gadgetry, Dell purchased an early Apple computer at the age of 15 for the strict purpose of taking it apart to see how it worked.
Dell Computer
It was in college that Dell found the niche that would become his boom. The PC world was still young and Dell realized that no company had tried selling directly to customers. Bypassing the middleman and the markups, Dell tapped his savings account for $1,000 and started building and selling computers for people he knew at college. His emphasis, however, wasn't just on good machines, but strong customer support and cheaper prices. Soon, he had accounts outside of school and it wasn't long before Dell dropped out and focused all his efforts on his business.
The numbers proved staggering. In 1984, Dell's first full year in business, he had $6 million in sales. By 2000, Dell was a billionaire and his company had offices in 34 countries and employee count of more than 35,000. The following year, Dell Computer surpassed Compaq Computer as the world's largest PC maker.
Overall, Dell's first 20 years proved to be one of the most successful businesses on the planet, surprising such titans as Wal-Mart and General Electric. Dell's story is so compelling that, in 1999, he published a best-selling book about his success, Direct from Dell: Strategies That Revolutionized the Industry.
Intensely private and notoriously shy, Dell has come out of his shell over the years, say those who know him, thanks to his wife Susan, a Dallas native whom he married in 1989. The couple has four children.

1. National Geographic News: "Four Historic Science Hoaxes"
To mark April Fools' Day, National Geographic News summarized some historic—and noteworthy, from our perspective—scientific hoaxes.
The hoaxes named, two of which are of special interest to creationists, are:
- Piltdown Man—this much-ballyhooed "missing link" skull, "found" in 1912, was actually an orangutan jaw, chimp teeth, and a human skull jumbled together. That didn't keep scientists from reconstructing it, identifying it as Eoanthropus dawsoni, and presenting it as evidence of evolution until 1953. (Read more at A century of fraud and The Piltdown Man Fraud.)
- Cardiff Giant—a fake-looking "giant" human, 10 feet (3 m) tall, unearthed in New York. The giant was actually sculpted from gypsum.
- Archaeoraptor—National Geographic jumped all over this "evidence" that dinosaurs evolved into birds and even presented the fake fossil (actually a composite of two creatures) at its headquarters before backing down. (Read more at Another "missing link" takes flight and Archaeoraptor hoax update—National Geographic recants!)
- Bigfoot—one of the most famous series of hoaxes in history, the Bigfoot legend nonetheless lives on. We've even covered it in News to Note—see the August 16, 2008, edition.
When it comes to Bigfoot, for instance, it's easy for skeptics to laugh at "gullible types" who credulously accept such stories without question. Yet in the cases of Piltdown Man and Archaeoraptor, evolutionist "skeptics" revealed their willingness to believe almost anything if it fit into their anti-creation worldview. What saddens us is that some Christians probably abandoned, at least temporarily, God's Word and the literal creation it describes, thinking Genesis had to be reinterpreted in the face of such "scientific evidence."

2. ScienceDaily: "New Theory on Largest Known Mass Extinction in Earth's History"
Yet another explanation for a catastrophic mass extinction—could it be?
Even for uniformitarians, the geologic record is filled with evidence of catastrophe. Whereas creationists see most of the fossil record as evidence of one great worldwide catastrophe (viz., the Flood of Noah's day), old-earthers find several major "extinction events" and many more minor ones, each blamed on various hypothetical culprits.
The latest suspects in the case of the Permian–Triassic extinction event—said to have occurred 250 million years ago—are giant salt lakes. According to Ludwig Weißflog of the Helmholtz-Center for Environmental Research and his teammates, the giant salt lakes could have emitted halogenated gases that altered the atmosphere and destroyed most plant life.
Microbial processes in modern salt lakes produce "highly volatile" halocarbons including chloroform, trichloroethene, and tetrachloroethene. Weißflog's team measured the devastating effect modern salt lakes have on surrounding vegetation: they steadily increase desertification as plants struggle to survive in the super-dry environment.
"Our calculations show that airborne pollutants from giant salt lakes like the Zechstein Sea must have had catastrophic effects at that time," Weißflog explained. (The Zechstein Sea was a hypothetical body of water said to cover Central Europe 250 million years ago.) The researchers calculated that the sea would have produced between five and twenty times the volatile halocarbon (VHC) emissions as all modern-day factories combined.
ScienceDaily notes that the Permian–Triassic mass extinction has previously been blamed on "volcanic eruptions, the impacts of asteroids, or methane hydrate." Speaking to those hypotheses, Weißflog admitted, "The question as to whether the halogenated gases from the giant salt lakes alone were responsible for [the extinction event] or whether it was a combination of various factors with volcanic eruptions, the impact of asteroids, or methane hydrate equally playing their role still remains unanswered."
Watching as old-earthers continue to speculate explanation upon explanation for mass extinctions grows increasingly humorous—and increasingly frustrating. The global Flood explains the worldwide layers of sediment we find that together house a fossil graveyard—a monument to the devastation of the Flood year. Yet many scientists scoff at such a huge catastrophe even while positing their own. It brings 2 Peter 3:5–7 to mind, doesn't it?

3. BBC News: "Baby Chicks Do Basic Arithmetic"
We had to check to make sure it wasn't an April Fools' prank, but yes, it seems baby birds can do simple math!
In the study, described in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, chicks were exposed to small plastic balls from birth. The chicks always try to stay close to the objects they are reared with (usually their mother), a process known as "imprinting." Thus, in the experiment, the chicks wanted to stay near the plastic balls.
Study coauthor Lucia Regolin of the University of Padova explained, "We had already found that the chicks have a tendency to approach a group containing more of these familiar objects." In this experiment, a chick was kept in a clear-fronted holding box as five of the plastic balls, suspended by fishing line, were slowly hidden—three behind one screen, two behind another. Upon release, the chicks walked to inspect behind the screen where the greater number of balls had been hidden.
In a complementary experiment, the researchers went a step further: after the balls had been initially hidden behind the screens, they transferred a few balls from one screen to the other (as each chick watched). Once again, the chicks walked to the screen hiding the greater number of balls, indicating that the chicks had arithmetically worked out where the majority of balls had ended up. "They still chose correctly, adding up the numbers based on groups of objects they couldn't see at that moment," Regolin said.
In a separate study, another team of researchers determined that fish—mosquito fish, to be specific—can also perform basic math. Ten mosquito fish were trained to associate a special door with a certain number of shapes. The special door allowed the socializing mosquito fish to move from an isolated tank into a tank with their peers. The exact shapes by the special door varied during the training, but the number of shapes remained constant.
After their training, the mosquito fish were isolated to see if they would still swim through the "right" door—the door with the correct number of shapes—even without their friends waiting for them. The fish selected the correct door more frequently than random chance would predict.
Thus, both fish and chicks seem to have the ability to "count" in a rudimentary sense, with the chicks able to recognize basic addition and subtraction in principle. They join primates as well as dogs as having shown such abilities. However, in the case of the chicks, never before has an animal been shown to display such capabilities from birth and without prior training.
The intelligence of animals is sometimes fascinating and often puzzling, but in each case it reveals how God designed animals with a variety of incredible mental skills. Finding these abilities in non-primates disputes the notion that chimp intelligence verifies evolution. Nonetheless, the researchers revealed their presuppositions by claiming that the fish's ability "has evolutionary underpinnings."

4. ScienceDaily: "Does Prebiotic Material Exist in Outer Space?"
Astrobiologists may be a step closer to identifying prebiotic compounds in space. Now all they have to do is find the compounds!
Astrophysicists Guillermo Muñoz and Emmanuel Dartois have discovered an infrared absorption band that could signal the existence of oxygen- or nitrogen-rich organic material in interstellar dust grains, ScienceDaily reports. If astronomers detect this infrared signature, it may indicate the presence of amino acids in space.
In the lab, the scientists attempted to recreate interstellar conditions by combining gases at extremely low pressure and temperature. The duo then irradiated ice in the environment; the result was a "yellowish substance" containing carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen in organic molecules such as carboxylic acids, glycine, and other amino acids. The team then matched the substance with an absorption band on the infrared spectrum. If telescopes detect an absorption band on that spectrum, it would signal the discovery of a substance similar to what Muñoz and Dartois created in the lab.
The problem is that scientists have never observed the "yellow stuff infrared band," as ScienceDaily puts it, in space. But Muñoz and Dartois speculate that other forms of organic compounds may exist with an absorption band different to the yellow substance.
While the astrophysicists' work to determine the spectrum of the "yellow stuff" is interesting, what's more important is the gap it reveals between "prebiotic compounds" and life. Not only has this substance not been found in space; the substance has been "found" (i.e., made) in a lab on earth but clearly isn't turning into life!

5. BBC News: "Evolution Study Focuses on Snail"
If you're living in Europe, you've been asked to help find evidence for evolution in your backyard.
The request comes from the Open University, which claims its new Evolution MegaLab project is "one of the largest evolutionary studies ever undertaken," reports BBC News. Project leaders are asking the public to look in their gardens or in public parks for banded snails, then submit what they find online. (The "banding" refers to natural strips on the snail's shell, not to manual band-like tags sometimes used by scientists to track animals.) Scientists hope to learn how the snails have evolved in the past 40 years in response to changes in their environments and predation.
In observing the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birthday this year, the Open University's Jonathan Silvertown explained, "I was thinking about Darwin year and how we could help people get an idea of what Darwin was talking about." In the case of the banded snail, Silvertown speculates on two likely influences on the snail's "evolution": climate change and predation by thrushes.
Darker-shelled snails are found farther north, probably because the dark shells warm up more quickly than light ones. "The climate has warmed up, so we think the distribution of colors has probably changed," Silvertown said.
As for predation, thrushes (the snails' primary predator) are less populous than they once were. Silvertown suggests this will decrease the frequency of snails whose colored shells match their surroundings (i.e., helping them blend in).
While "evolution" is at the center of this study (including its name), and although Silvertown claims Darwin year as the project's inspiration, it's actually natural selection that will explain how the banded snail population has changed. This is "evolution" only in the sense that proportions of shell features in the banded snail population are changing—not in the sense that the snails themselves are changing into anything other than snails. But watch out for the results, when announced, to be claimed as evidence for the latter definition of evolution.

And Don't Miss . . .
- Several readers wrote to notify us of the LiveScience report Big Blobs Change View of Evolution, syndicated by Yahoo! News. For some reason, LiveScience (and Yahoo!) are a bit late, since the news actually broke last November (see our comments in the November 29 edition of News to Note).
- When it comes to animal intelligence (see item #3), a sea turtle apparently swam to the world's only licensed veterinary hospital that treats only sea turtles. Of course, it's possible this was just a random success (the turtle had a bacterial infection, which may be common)—or that the entire story is an April Fools' Day prank (though the story was originally posted on March 30, according to the website).
- A cartoonist we've never heard of is releasing an "interpretation" of the book of Genesis designed to "provoke the religious right," according to his publisher. Don't expect to find the supposed satire in our Answers Bookstore!
- "Hundreds of Natural-selection Studies Could Be Wrong" reports ScienceDaily on a study by U.S. and Japanese scientists. The study revealed statistical deficiencies in a number of papers on human evolution. "Of course, we would never say that natural selection is not happening, but we are saying that these statistical methods can lead scientists to make erroneous inferences," the team leader explained.
- There could have once been life on Mars, blah blah blah, reports BBC News. The "news" is yet another variation on a long-since exhausted theme, and we are getting exhausted continually recapping the scant-evidence-but-lots-of-speculation stories on the possibility of Martian life.
- In what has the makings of a good April Fools' story (but apparently isn't), Reuters reports on an incredibly deep-thinking robot that can "reason, formulate theories, and discover scientific knowledge." Engineers dubbed it (the first of its kind) "Adam" and are planning a follow-up to be named "Eve"!
- The supreme court of the U.S. state of Iowa has overturned a 1998 state law limiting marriage to between one man and one woman. The court cited the U.S. Constitution's "equal protection" clause, although the court's action actually attacks the definition of marriage as between one man and one woman.
- Finally, proof that design and "evolution" do go together (sort of)!

Recipe by kelsey
"These cool treats are great on a hot day! Play around with the ingredients a little -- you can use almond butter, cashew butter, cashews, granola, or whatever sounds good!"
Watch video tips and tricks
4 bananas, peeled and halved horizontally
1/3 cup peanut butter
1 (8 ounce) package semisweet baking chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup roasted peanuts, chopped
8 ice pop sticks
OMG! My niece went crazy for these and so did the other kids - I guess that's why I now claim the title of favorite Aunt! These are so good and the possibilities are endless in terms of what you stick on these. I added some coconut along with the chopped nuts but the kids loved the assortment of rice krispies, dried fruit, M&M's, and colored sprinkles!
I remember having something like this as a kid, and liking it. That's what made me do a search for frozen banana treats. But based on this recipe, I'd have to say I'm not a semisweet chocolate kinda gal. I would try milk chocolate next time. The peanut butter was very messy to apply to the frozen bananas. I'm thinking melting the peanut butter and milk chocolate together might be the way to go. Or using nutella, like others mentioned, would be good. However, they were also very difficult to eat. Admittedly, I didn't have them on popsicle sticks--they were just little chunks of banana. But the frozen bananas were rock solid. I ate a few that way, then tried thawing them for a bit, but then they got all mushy and kinda gross. I guess this isn't the recipe for me. Thanks for sharing. I'm glad others love it!

These are so amazing! Didn't have popsicle sticks so I just cut the bananas in 4 pieces each. Dipped in dark chocolate. The chocolate froze too fast to put the nuts (I used cashews) on, so the next time I made it I mixed the chocolate and nuts before dipping banana pieces. Also read somewhere that you should use really ripe bananas, that way the banana flavour is really apparent.
Oh yum! I'm always trying to find healthy desserts for my significant other who every now and then gets a hankering for something sweet. These are SO good and you're right Kelsey, there are so many possibilities to experiment with. For a lighter and more refreshing treat, I also dipped the banana's into yogurt and rolled in a healthy cereal. Guilt free and delicious. Thank you Kelsey!
I've always wanted to try this. I wouldn't have thought to freeze bananas first, so thanks! I changed it up to make it easier for myself. I used 1/2 a bag of mini baking chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of crisco shortening. Melt in microwave in 30 seconds, stir and put back in microwave for another 30 seconds at 70%. Just stir until it's all melted. I also cut the banana in quarters rather than half for a quick treat. They were frozen within an hour. FYI..definately use bananas that are still yellow and slightly green. Anything more or less will not have as pleasant a taste or texture.
This literally is one of those clean-out-your-cupboards summer treats. You can use any kind of chips, you can use Nutella instead of peanut butter, and you can roll it in just about anything. Nuts, sprinkles, granola, cereal.....the skies the limit! Great treat to make with your kids.
These are terrific. I ended up putting a layer of Nutella over the frozen peanut butter layer (instead of the melted chocolate chips) and sprinkling the bananas with chopped, salted peanuts. I didn't have any sticks so I just wrapped them individually in wax paper. So good!
yummy. i had this for the first time several summers ago. I watched a group of kids munch these down with speed. when I tried one myself. ohh did i enjoy it!!!! LOVE THEM. also taste good drizzled in honey and rolled in cereal.

TEAMS: Northwestern Wildcats, Michigan State Spartans, Penn State Nittany Lions
The Northwestern Wildcats hope they can finally move on from their fourth-quarter struggles.
After holding on for a 23-20 victory over Michigan State on Sunday, the Wildcats are very much in the mix for a quality bowl bid at the end of the season.
Northwestern (8-3, 4-3 Big Ten) blew fourth-quarter leads in losses to Penn State, Nebraska and Michigan, so the Wildcats had reason to be anxious when Michigan State took over at its own 20-yard line with 1:29 remaining, needing a field goal to tie.
But Andrew Maxwell threw four straight incompletions, and now Northwestern can state its case even further to bowl representatives next weekend against Illinois.
