Bugliosi, famous for prosecuting Charles Manson and for coauthoring the book about the case, "Helter Skelter," has spent 20 years examining just about every theory ever put forth about the assassination. "It's my view that it's impossible for any reasonable, rational person to read this book without being satisfied beyond all reasonable doubt that Oswald killed Kennedy and acted alone," Bugliosi told the New York Times in May. Since then, overwhelmingly favorable reviews have suggested that the days of the grassy knoll-Mafia-missing bullets conspiracy theories might at last be over.

Who is Kuntzler? Since he included his telephone number at the bottom of his letter, I called him to find out. As you might imagine, I learned more than can possibly fit in this space, but the basics are these: He's 65, a former exhibits and sales director of the National Science Teachers Assn. and once a prominent D.C.-based gay activist. He first became interested in the JFK assassination in 1991 after reading Jim Marrs' book, "Crossfire: The Plot that Killed Kennedy" (this was also, incidentally, the year of Oliver Stone's film "JFK," which Kuntzler calls "98% accurate").
In 2004, Kuntzler's longtime partner, Stephen Miller, died of complications from AIDS and left him Miller Reporting Co., which had transcribed documents that Kuntzler believes are relevant to the assassination. Following the company's demise (Kuntzler referred to "millions in estate taxes"), he sold the building that housed it, using the money to pay off his credit card debts (including $25,000 he spent organizing an assassination panel discussion last year) and spent $186,000 on the New York Times ad. Altogether, Kuntzler estimates he's spent a quarter of a million dollars on what he calls "the last opportunity for the American public to have confirmation on what happened on Nov. 22, 1963."
"I don't have much money left," he added. "I expect that once the truth comes out, I'll go on a speaking tour. If not, I'll have to take out another mortgage on my house."
After I talked to Kuntzler, I called Bugliosi, who listed for me many of the same points he made on C-SPAN and "The Colbert Report," including his belief that the Stone film is "one continuous lie, [other than] he did have the correct date and the correct victim."
"I didn't read [Kuntzler's letter] carefully," Bugliosi told me. "But I went through it enough to see that he was regurgitating all the old hoary theories that even those in the mainstream community have rejected. He's not even reading mainstream conspiracy dogma."
We then spent some time talking about why, despite the conventional wisdom that the simplest explanation is usually the best explanation, the human mind seems so naturally drawn to the complexities and innuendoes of conspiracy theories. Bugliosi admitted that they are usually more interesting than the truth. In the case of President Kennedy, he said, they point to a kind of collective inability to accept that such a monumental, historical event could be caused by a single, ordinary person.
"It gives more meaning to his life and death," Bugliosi said, "to believe dark forces are responsible for his death. Jackie herself said we don't even have the satisfaction of him being killed for a cause."
That makes sense. But speaking of simple explanations, what about the fact that every once in a while a conspiracy theory comes along that has some truth to it? Take, for example, this particular moment in this particular nation. You don't have to believe in fake moon landings or even stolen elections to sense that we're experiencing one of the most secretive periods in recent political history. When it comes to the current state of things, smelling a rat isn't necessarily contingent on living in your mother's basement and wearing T-shirts that say things like "Inside Job!" It's simply a matter of paying attention.
Then again, there's such a thing as paying too much attention. "If you're a parent and your child gets interested in the JFK case, it's toxic," Bugliosi told me. "It's caused divorces, bankruptcies and suicides."
"My mother and my sisters received copies of the ad via FedEx," Kuntzler told me. "They knew how much I was spending. Well, actually, I haven't told my mother yet."

Bipolar disorder can be treated with a number of medications. Some of these medications can increase your appetite or cause changes in metabolism leading to weight gain.
Whether a certain medication will cause weight gain or other side effects varies from person to person. Likewise, how well the medication works to treat bipolar disorder symptoms differs for each individual. Because of this, finding the medications that best treat your symptoms may require some trial and error. In some cases, medications that increase the risk of weight gain may be needed only temporarily to get your symptoms under control. Then, you and your doctor can find long-term (maintenance) treatment that keeps symptoms at bay and causes the least amount of side effects.
Medications for bipolar disorders include mood stabilizers, antidepressants and antipsychotics.
Some weight gain may be inevitable when taking medications needed to control your bipolar symptoms. If weight gain is an issue, ask your doctor for advice on strategies to manage it. Learning tips for healthy eating, keeping physically active and getting psychological counseling (psychotherapy) can all help. Be patient and keep working with your doctor to find the best way to keep your symptoms — and your weight — under control.

"A Proposed Constitutional Amendment to Preserve Traditional Marriage"
United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary
Tuesday, March 23, 2004, 10 a.m. - Senate Russell Office Building Room 325
Mr. Chairman, Ranking Minority Member Leahy, members of the committee - thank you for the opportunity to testify today. As a law school professor who has devoted over thirty-years of her life to the study of family law, I cannot imagine a more important topic for this committee and for the United States Senate to consider than the institution and definition of marriage. In my home state of Louisiana, I have worked hard to strengthen the institution of marriage. I have served as the reporter for the Revision of the Law of Marriage of the Louisiana State Law Institute since 1981. I am a longtime active member of the American Law Institute's Committee on the Principles of Family Dissolution. In 1997, I helped draft Louisiana's landmark covenant marriage legislation. So the defense of marriage is not a new topic for me - it is my life's work.
I can honestly tell this committee that, when I entered the area of family law over thirty years ago, I never imagined that I would be here in the United States Senate, endorsing a constitutional amendment defining and defending the traditional institution of marriage. With all my years working at the state legislative level, I am well aware of the prominent role that the states play in the area of family law. So it is fair to ask: Why do I support the federal marriage amendment?
Law professors are fond of giving long-winded answers, and in my written testimony, I try to provide a more extensive response. But the answer is really quite simple: If this body does not approve a federal constitutional amendment defending marriage, the courts will take this issue away from the American people, and they will abolish traditional marriage. It is really that simple. It is, with regret, my considered legal opinion that the courts have left us with no middle ground for this body and for the American people. I see that over three-fourths of this body - including the distinguished Ranking Minority Member, Senator Leahy - voted for the federal Defense of Marriage, which defined marriage as the union of one man and one woman for purposes of federal law. If those votes sincerely expressed the views of members of Congress, then the only choice you have is to support a federal constitutional amendment.
Until the last few months, every citizen in this country shared a common understanding of what marriage is, a social institution, consisting of a union of a man and a woman. Every dictionary defines marriage in those well understood, millennia-old terms. As a public institution, marriage serves society's most basic function - the acculuration of children, which is a time-intensive, exceedingly expensive proposition - marriage serves that societal purpose efficiently, and we have all understood it to be a union of a man and a woman. A union that biologically is the only one that can create the children that must be acculurated if we as a society are to survive. In my thirty years of experience in family law, I can attest that the traditional institution of marriage is important in every American community - across different races, cultures, and religions.
I was moved by the testimony of Reverend Richard Richardson and Pastor Daniel de Leon at the last hearing. They explained that, as far as their communities are concerned, marriage is not about discrimination - it's about children. And of course they are right. But there are law professors, lawyers, and judges who clearly view things differently. Those who say that the federal marriage amendment "writes discrimination into the Constitution" clearly believe that traditional marriage must be abolished by courts. For the rest of us - the vast majority of Americans who respect and love all people, as well as the institution of marriage - we are left with no middle ground, no other option than to either acknowledge defeat and give up traditional marriage, or support a constitutional amendment defending it.
Despite these false charges of discrimination, there seems to be bipartisan consensus that the traditional definition of marriage is worth defending - and worth defending at the federal level and at the constitutional level. The federal Defense of Marriage Act was signed by President Clinton with the support of over three-fourths of the Senate. The federal marriage amendment was first introduced by a Democrat in the House. And I notice that, in previous hearings, Democratic witnesses have agreed with Republican witnesses in supporting at least some version of a constitutional amendment defending (if not defining) marriage - including Rev. Richard Richardson, Professor Dale Carpenter, and Chuck Muth.
There also seems to be bipartisan consensus that, without a constitutional amendment, traditional marriage laws across the country - including the federal DOMA - will likely be invalidated by activist judges around the country. Indeed, that is already happening. And the reason is simple. I have carefully examined the Supreme Court's recent decision in Lawrence v. Texas. That decision gives activist courts and local officials all the excuse they need to abolish traditional marriage laws nationwide. In Lawrence, the Court stated that "our laws and tradition afford constitutional protection to personal decisions relating to marriage, procreation, contraception, family relationships, child rearing, and education. . . . Persons in a homosexual relationship may seek autonomy for these purposes, just as heterosexual persons do." The Court specifically identified "marriage" as a federal constitutional issue, and analyzed it, if not explicitly in terms of equal protection, nonetheless in terms of discrimination. Not once did the Court indicate that marriage is about children - and not about adult love, or discrimination. Indeed, at least one Supreme Court justice has already taken the position that traditional marriage laws may infringe upon the right of privacy and thus must be abolished by courts. In 1974, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg wrote that any polygamy law or by inference any other traditional marriage law "is of questionable constitutionality since it appears to encroach impermissibly upon private relationships."
Because activist lawyers and judges see marriage as about discrimination, rather than about children, courts have begun to abolish traditional marriage laws under Lawrence. Just look at the Massachusetts court. Rather than affirm traditional marriage, it characterized it as a "stain" on our laws that must be "eradicated" by judges. It recognized that "[m]any people hold deep-seated religious, moral, and ethical convictions that marriage should be limited to the union of one man and one woman," language virtually identical to that in the Lawrence decision. Not surprisingly, just as the Supreme Court in the Lawrence decision rejected those convictions as a consideration in deciding what constitutes the protected "liberty" interest, the Goodridge court found "no rational reason" for such laws, and said that traditional marriage is "rooted in persistent prejudices" and based on "invidious discrimination." It even suggested that "[i]f ... the Legislature were to jettison the term 'marriage' altogether, it might well be rational and permissible." And throughout its analysis, the court in the Goodridge case repeatedly and consistently relied on federal constitutional law and the Lawrence decision.
The nation's top constitutional law scholars don't often agree, but in this area, there appears to be a rare consensus. Harvard Law School Professor Laurence Tribe has said that "You'd have to be tone deaf not to get the message from Lawrence" that traditional marriage laws are now "constitutionally suspect." Tribe has said that under Lawrence marriage is now "a federal constitutional issue," and predicts that the U.S. Supreme Court will follow the Massachusetts court. Another constitutional law expert, Yale Law School's William Eskridge, has said that "Justice Scalia is right" that Lawrence signals the end of traditional marriage laws. Eskridge has repeatedly stated that, under the Court's rulings, "DOMA is unconstitutional." Erwin Chemerinsky has similarly written that "Justice Scalia likely is correct in his dissent in saying that laws that prohibit same-sex marriage cannot, in the long term, survive the reasoning of the majority in Lawrence."
And of course, my fellow panelist, Professor Cass Sunstein, has expressed the view that "the ban on same-sex marriages is unconstitutional." Prof. Sunstein testified as early as 1996 - even before Lawrence - that courts would strike down the federal Defense of Marriage Act. He testified that "there is a big problem under the equal protection component of the due process clause, as construed just a few weeks ago by the U.S. Supreme Court in Romer v. Evans." Prof. Sunstein has argued that "the prohibition on same-sex marriages, as part of the social and legal insistence on 'two kinds,' is . . . deeply connected with male supremacy," and "has everything to do with constitutionally unacceptable stereotypes about the appropriate roles of men and women." He has said that "Massachusetts [got] it right." Notably, he has said that "the [Massachusetts] court drew some support from federal precedents."
There is, of course, no way to prevent what has been predicted by these professors other than a federal constitutional amendment. As Senator Cornyn has correctly noted, throughout history we have approved a number of constitutional amendments to reverse judicial decisions with which the American people disagree. The reason why the defense of marriage is a federal issue, and not a state issue, is simple: Because the courts have made it a federal issue. My written testimony goes even further, by explaining why in any event, family law has largely been federalized for some time now. I will not belabor the point here, but simply ask that that written testimony be submitted for the record. And with that, I would be happy to answer any questions the committee may have. Thank you.
Why not permit states to define marriage in state law?
Even though the subject matter of marriage and family law has historically been left to the states, the differences among states' laws (other than divorce laws, which narrowed after Williams v. North Carolina in 1942 and now are very similar) have varied at the edges of the common understanding of marriage - can first cousins marry? is a blood test required? who can perform the ceremony? But the core common understanding of marriage - that marriage bridges the differences in the sexes, a bridge that is essential to procreation - has never been touched, until now.
State experimentation as fifty individual laboratories has not been permitted when the question is as fundamental as what is marriage. Consider the examples in the Wall St. Journal opinion editorial by Ed Meese. We don't permit a state to experiment with socialism or printing its own currency. Denying such experimentation is especially prevalent if there is concern for the welfare of children - such as Congress' response to the aftermath of the divorce revolution in the 1980's and low, inconsistent child support awards. Congress enacted laws essentially requiring the states to adopt child support guidelines and more recently efficient uniform child support collection mechanisms. Children's welfare is central and at stake in a common understanding of marriage.
Furthermore, it is not as if marriage law has not been increasingly a concern of a branch of the federal government. U.S. v. Reynolds concerned Congress' regulation of marriage in the territory of Utah and whether polygamy as a religious practice was protected by the constitutional provision respecting the free exercise of religion. Marriage as a union of one man and one woman unaffected by religious practice was affirmed - a common, and most (but surely not all) would argue, fundamental understanding about the meaning of marriage. But, NOT as fundamental, or at the heart or core of marriage, as the understanding that marriage is a union of a man and a woman. Marriage is a societal method for managing heterosexual bonding. Or as we now even more clearly understand and uniformly acknowledge, the need a child has for his mother and his father.
The Reynolds case is surely not the only example of the federal judiciary's concern with and affecting of a state's (territory's) law of marriage. In a series of more recent cases the court as a federal instrumentality affected marriage with Loving v. Virginia declaring unconstitutional a Virginia statute prohibiting interracial marriages; Zablocki v. Redhail striking down a Wisconsin statute regulating entry into marriage by a person owing child support; and subsequently, Turner v. Safley declaring a Nevada prison regulation of the marriage of inmates unconstitutional.
Why a state definition of marriage in a statute or state constitutional provision may not survive even if state experimentation was desirable?
With the "right to marry" as a fundamental right guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment's "liberty" clause, the definition of what is marriage within that context is ultimately within the purview of the United States Supreme Court. A state statutory definition, even a state constitutional definition of marriage, may not survive even if state experimentation were desirable. In Turner v. Safley, the description of the aspects of marriage inmates in prison continue to enjoy, contains no mention of children whatsoever in the description. Nonetheless, until the Supreme Court's decision in Lawrence v. Texas less than a year ago, I relied on Bowers v. Hardwick to anchor the "liberty" interest, the fundamental right to marry, in the history and traditions of our country (reaffirmed to an extent in footnote 6 in Michael H. v. Gerald D.) - thus the right to marry could only be defined as the right of one woman to marry one man. After the Lawrence decision explicitly overruled Bowers, the court unmoored the "liberty" interests. "Liberty" defined in Lawrence is a radical right of individual autonomy without the tempering language of "the common good." This radical right of autonomy has been substituted for the anchor of earlier interpretations of "liberty," our country's history and traditions. I can no longer predict what the definition of marriage will be. My state's statutory definition of marriage is at risk as would be my state's constitutional definition. The federal statutory definition of marriage in DOMA is at risk. In fact Lawrence v. Texas poses a potential and serious threat to virtually the entire body of state statutory family law, law which regulates marriage and the family and often elevates the "best interest of the family" over that of any individual member.
Let the People Decide
Ultimately, what the proponents of the FMA are asking is simply, let the American people decide if marriage should be remain defined as a union of a man and a woman. The issue of what should be the definition of marriage is not a difficult, hyper technical, or legally complicated one. The American people can easily understand what it is that they are asked to consider. The process of amendment is purposefully difficult, potentially tedious and lengthy. If the American people are not permitted to decide the meaning of the word "marriage," the judiciary, state judges and ultimately the United States Supreme Court, will decide for us. And, among the judiciary, many individual judges at the state and federal level, are openly hostile to traditional marriage and the deeply held convictions of the majority of the American public. they are ready to redefine marriage, if not immediately in the near future. Even though, as the Supreme Court in Lawrence opines, it is unwilling to consider the deeply held moral and religious convictions of American citizens, in interpreting our Constitution, the Court may instead consult the laws of other countries--such as the Western European countries who have adopted laws redefining traditional marriage--or international declarations crafted and released by international bodies, including the United Nations.
Furthermore, those same judges often are highly disdainful of the People's decision making ability. Although the simple act of a majority of judges of a single court ordering the legislature to enact particular legislation is astounding in light of the separation of powers recognized in both state and federal systems, how much more astounding is it to find in those same opinions (Baker v. Vermont and Goodridge v. Massachusetts) sincere reluctance to permit the legislature, who represent the People, ANY limited prerogative afforded it by the court. You need only look at the dissenting opinion in Baker v. Vermont decided in 1999 to find an example in which a dissenting judge urged the majority not to offer the citizens of Vermont the option in the legislative arena to consider another legal relationship with the rights of traditional marriage.
The only safety that can be afforded traditional marriage is the safe harbor of the United States Constitution, but only if the People of this country decide to create it. Why not ask the People themselves, directly? We do not have to rely on a court's unscientific determination of whether the opinion of the People has evolved to the point of relinquishing the common understanding of traditional marriage. After all, should we leave the issue to the courts, the moment in time is chosen by the litigants. Let the People decide; they will do so in a localized venue where both proponents and opponents have realistic options by which to exert influence and to persuade those making the decision. Only those issues about which there is a substantial and sustained consensus are ultimately resolved by a constitutional amendment. Is marriage worthy of that national focus and resulting debate? Yes--never more so than at this point in our nation's history. We, the citizens, need to know if we live in and can rely on a strong marriage culture focused on the welfare of children free from the risk of experimentation.
Let them vote. That is all we ask--let the People vote.

Video transcript provided by Newsy.com
Nearly a year after the school shooting in Newtown, Conn. that left 20 children and six adults dead, officials plan to release the 911 calls from that horrifying day.
A Connecticut state prosecutor says he won't try to stop the recordings of the seven 911 calls made from inside Sandy Hook Elementary School from being released Wednesday afternoon after fighting for months to keep them under wraps. A judge ordered the recordings' release last week. (Via NBC)
According to State's Attorney Stephen Sedensky III, the shooting was a case of child abuse, and the release of the 911 tapes could deeply upset the families who lost loved ones in the Dec. 14, 2012 shooting. (Via WHDH)
"I don't feel that the actual audio tapes serve any public interest. And I do worry about our children and our families listening to this in the future." (Via CBS)
He also argued the recordings could even make people lose their faith in the 911 system.
After 20-year-old Adam Lanza killed his mother at their home then drove to the elementary school and murdered 26 people with an assault rifle, some speculated police were told to wait before going inside the school. (Via ABC)
But there was never any way for the public to know for sure — until now.
The Freedom of Information Commission ruled in September that the calls should be given to The Associated Press, but Sedensky was able to stall the release by applying for a stay to hold it. But it was later denied. (Via WSOC)
The court decision said there was quote "no dispute" that the 911 calls made from Sandy Hook are public records within the Freedom of Information Act, and the judge was confident those who placed 911 calls would, without hesitation, do it again. (Via CNN)
The court says it believes the release of the Sandy Hook 911 tapes will help the public see the quote "...professionalism and bravery of the first responders who themselves have undoubtedly been subjected to emotional turmoil and pain in witnessing the scene..." (Via Los Angeles Times)
The news of the release comes just days after officials decided that Lanza acted alone in the massacre and was obsessed with school shootings — but they were unable to establish a motive.

Flyers 5, Blue Jackets 4: Captain Claude Giroux scored twice in the final 3:46 to cap a five-goal third-period outburst as Philadelphia stunned Columbus to extend its home winning streak to eight games.Giroux, who also had a pair of assists, scored on a backhander with 1:38 to play for his 100th career goal as the Flyers erased a three-goal deficit and improved to 5-0-1 all time in Philadelphia against the Blue Jackets. Steve Mason made 24 saves versus his former team but was bailed out as the Flyers stormed back after trailing 3-0 through two periods.Jakub Voracek and Braydon Coburn scored 62 seconds apart to ignite the comeback and defenseman Erik Gustafsson also tallied for Philadelphia. Cam Atkinson, Jack Skille, Nick Foligno and Blake Comeau had goals for Columbus, which suffered its first regulation loss under coach Todd Richards when leading after two periods (36-1-1). Leading 1-0 after one period courtesy of Atkinson's short-handed tally, Skille doubled the lead at 4:44 of the second with a blistering slap shot from the right faceoff dot before Foligno seemingly put Columbus in command with 11 seconds left in the second. The Flyers rallied on the quick goals by Voracek and Coburn - the latter coming on a fluke bounce off a wrister from the blue line.Comeau was set up by Artem Anisimov at 8:35 of the third to restore the lead to two goals, but Gustafsson and Giroux tallied 53 seconds apart to deadlock it at 4-4 at 16:14. The captain settled it by beating Curtis McElhinney (34 saves) with his milestone goal, falling to the ice with his back to the net from the bottom of the right circle.GAME NOTEBOOK: Voracek has six goals during a six-game point streak. ... Richards said he expects to have RW Marian Gaborik and D James Wisniewski back in the lineup for Saturday's rematch with the Flyers in Columbus. ... Flyers C Brayden Schenn returned to the lineup after receiving a jarring hit in Tuesday's game by Washington's Tom Wilson, who was not subject to any disciplinary action, the NHL announced Thursday.

What a well run conference you had. Completely organized and perfect socializing! I loved the music venue off site.
Dear IFFS organizers, Thank you very much for the opportunity of being part of the International Film Festival Summit. This was a great experience: thanks to your great job, a group of great people (both participants and the panelists) and a place itself. I believe American Film Festival in Wroclaw will strongly profit from the knowledge and contacts acquired at the IFFS. Hope we can meet in the future, so please keep me updated on next editions and good luck!
We really appreciate all your help and support in Austin. You all pulled off a wonderful event absolutely seamlessly!
The International Film Festival Summit is the only time each year I get to hang out with my peers: fellow festival planners, programmers, directors and producers and talk about the business of planning a film festival..
Dear IFFS, I'm writing to thank you you and all your team for putting together such a great conference. As a full-time event producer who is interested in film festival planning and organization I felt that IFFS offered really solid insights and food for thought....and terrific connections.
IFFS is a must-attend event for film festivals of all sizes. Whether your fest is two years old, or 20, working with a budget of $20,000, or $2 million, EVERY FEST, no matter how big or how small, walks away from this conference with new friends, new ideas and an energized outlook on the future of film festivals!!

Solving Math Problems
This is a fun game about math problems. It's not a complicated test, in fact it's very easy, however the point is not just to solve the question provided, but to solve as many as you can in a short time, a very good score would be 21 points in this exercise, if you get 21 points then you are a human calculator, well not really but you got the point. It's nice to be an athlete, but certainly it's super nice to be a Mathlete! So have fun solving this math problems game!
Instructions for the Math Game
You have 5 minutesin this math game, you have to answer as many questions as possible, click on "new game", then "start", once you know the answer go to the space where it says "put answer here" and write it, then hit "enter", you will earn one point for that. Keep playing until the 5 minutes are over.
Math is one of the top stimulants to the brain; this is an interactive game which stimulates your mental abilities. Life is filled with problems, and as part of our daily routine is to solve easy or hard problems. Mathematics are one form in finding solutions to real life obstacles, such as in algebra, analysis, arithmetic, combinatorics, Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries, game theory, number theory, numerical analysis, optimization, probability, set theory, statistics, topology, and trigonometry … etc. The game below is something that might seem to be played easily, but the main benefit would occur if you give accurate answers while playing fast, don't let the simplicity of the game fool you, it's simple but greatly stimulates your brain, especially when performing rapid calculations, your brain gets used to thinking in a fast pace, and that in itself is a good math work out. After playing the math game you can also read some selected quotes below about mathematics. Enjoy!
Thanks to Oswego City School District
Many consider math the underlying language of science. Among the principal branches of mathematics are algebra, analysis, arithmetic, combinatorics, Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries, game theory, number theory, numerical analysis, optimization, probability, set theory, statistics, topology, and trigonometry.
In short mathematics is a deductive study of numbers, geometry, and various abstract constructs, or structures; the latter often "abstract" the features common to several models derived from the empirical, or applied sciences, although many emerge from purely mathematical or logical considerations. Mathematics is very broadly divided into foundations, algebra, analysis, geometry, and applied mathematics, which includes theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence.
Selected Quotes about Math
- "In mathematics you don't understand things. You just get used to them" John Von Neumann.
- "Mathematics consists of proving the most obvious thing in the least obvious way" George Polya.
- "The simplest schoolboy is now familiar with facts for which Archimedes would have sacrificed his life" Ernest Renan.
- "Mathematics is like checkers in being suitable for the young, not too difficult, amusing, and without peril to the state" Plato.
- "As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality" Albert Einstein.
- "The science of mathematics presents the most brilliant example of how pure reason may successfully enlarge its domain without the aid of experience" Immanuel Kant.
- "Numbers exist only in our minds. There is no physical entity that is number 1. If there were, 1 would be in a place of honor in some great museum of science, and past it would file a steady stream of mathematicians gazing at 1 in wonder and awe" Linear Algebra by Fraleigh/Beauregard.
- "Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty —a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show. The true spirit of delight, the exaltation, the sense of being more than Man, which is the touchstone of the highest excellence, is to be found in mathematics as surely as poetry" Bertrand Russell, in Study of Mathematics, about the beauty of Mathematics.
- "Anyone who cannot cope with mathematics is not fully human. At best he is a tolerable sub-human who has learned to wear shoes, bathe, and not make messes in the house" Robert Heinlein.

text: Given that Mr Garris has directed at least 7 of Stephen King's properties, is it in order to ask what people think of his work? Having seen maybe 4 or 5 of the pieces he has directed, I find them to be OK - no better, no worse. He is better than many, but not even close to the best. Journeyman stuff in my view.

"She was in a room and she opened an interior door trying to peak out and see who was in the house," Crosier said. "As she did that, he (Hager) pushed the door in and knocked her down.
"She received minor injuries when that happened," he said. The victim was treated at an area hospital and released.
Hager was taken to the South Central Regional Jail, where he is awaiting arraignment.
Officers found items that had been stolen from the house while searching around the residence.
Officials with the Kanawha County Sheriff's Department are also warning area residents to watch out for thieves this holiday season.
Deputies responded to three home burglaries, three breaking and entering instances and two miscellaneous thefts within 24 hours over Christmas Day and today, Crosier said.
"They're taking electronic items and new gifts that people have purchased for Christmas," Crosier said. "They're taking items that they can quickly sell, probably to support their drug habits."
The burglaries took place in Charleston, Sissonville and St. Albans, he said. Crosier does not believe the burglaries and breaking and entering incidents are connected.
"We continue to urge citizens to be vigilant," Crosier said. "Watch neighbor's homes while they are away shopping, working or visiting."

Ranked among the best in the nation by U.S. News & World Report
Published: July 30, 2010
Updated: July 30, 2010
Pulmonary fibrosis and other and interstitial lung diseases (ILD) can be caused by a wide variety of reasons, making it very hard to diagnose.
At Duke, we use advanced diagnostic tests to ensure you get an accurate diagnosis and the most effective treatment therapy for your condition.
You will be asked to fill out a number of questionnaires concerning your medical history. Our doctors use this detailed history to identify predisposition to ILD.
Patients with suspected pulmonary fibrosis or ILD will undergo a chest x-ray to help doctors view scarring and inflammation in the lungs.
Patients with pulmonary fibrosis or ILD rarely have a normal chest x-ray, though the x-ray doesn't necessarily show the specific scar patterns.
The HRCT is a three-dimensional image of the lung interstitium that gives clues about the cause of pulmonary fibrosis. Our radiologists and pulmonologists are experts at interpreting the results of the scans.
Blood tests help us determine if immune diseases or environmental factors are the cause of your ILD.
We offer several blood tests to identify immune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, SLE, scleroderma, and polymyositis that can lead to pulmonary fibrosis or ILD. Other blood tests indicate exposure to molds and other organic compounds that cause pulmonary fibrosis.
Currently, our doctors are developing diagnostic blood tests to identify signatures in the blood that will facilitate and simplify the diagnostic approach for patients with ILD.
Learn more about our research studies.
Pulmonary function tests are breathing tests that measure the amount and rate of air flowing in and out of your lungs, as well as the oxygen uptake by the lungs.
These tests help us determine the strength of your lungs and hint at possible diseases that may be present.
This simple test uses a probe on the skin to measure the amount of oxygen in your blood. The test is particularly useful when combined with walking or exercise to determine if your blood oxygen level remains steady with activity.
A bronchoscopy is an outpatient diagnostic test where a fiberoptic endoscope, a bronchoscope, is inserted into the windpipe and bronchial tubes to collect lung fluid or take several pencil-tip sized lung biopsies.
This minimally invasive surgery is used to obtain thumb-sized pieces of lung tissue and is sometimes necessary to make an accurate diagnosis.
Three small incisions are made to insert a camera and surgical instruments. Since the incisions are no larger than one inch and the recovery time is a few days, physicians typically decide if this is a necessary procedure on a case-by-case basis.

Saturday July 7 — 6:30pm
Simone is a Minneapolis based theater artist, accordionista and chanteuse. She grew up in Winona, MN, where she learned that singing for your supper is just fine and houseboats are the best way to enjoy a lazy river. She studied theater and music at Oberlin College and Conservatory in Ohio, after which she followed the migration of friends to New York City where she spent five very full years. In NYC, along with Gregory Pierce and Hannah Cabell, she became a founding member of The Bad Astronauts, an east village based sketch comedy group. It was in New York where she started playing the accordion, appearing for a short stint in the (all female) Main Squeeze Accordion Orchestra, busking on several subway platforms, and accompanying herself as the love-scorned Vampire in the Bad Astronauts show "Phallaxy Quest". With her accordion in tow, she also worked with The Mettawee River Theater Company, dir. Ralph Lee and the Lake Lucille Chekhov Project, dir. Brian Mertes and Melissa Kievman.
After a good stint in New York, Simone made her way home to the artistic community in the Twin Cities where she has worked with several theaters, including The Theatre de la Jeune Lune (Antigone), Theater Latte Da (Gypsy, Passage of Dreams), Mixed Blood Theater (Pajama Game), Open Eye Figure Theater (Come and Get It, Flight, Folks and Heroes), Ordway Center for the Performing Arts (Rocky Horror Show), and The History Theater (These Shining Lives, A Tale of Twin Cities). During the 2006 Fringe Fest, Simone premiered her one-woman show "Tall Tale of a Broke Heart" and also started her collaboration with Kevin Kling, creating "In Hopes of Claudia". She and Kling have gone on to work on several other shows, including the world premiere of "How? How? Why? Why?Why?" at the Seattle Repertory Theater directed by David Esbjorson, where she and Kling returned in 2008 to work on and premiere "Breakin' Hearts and Takin' Names" directed by Braden Abraham. Most recently, she and Kevin premiered "A Tale of Twin Cities" at the History Theater in St. Paul, directed by Suzy Messerole. Her work with Kling has brought her to locations around the Midwest as well as New York City, Indianapolis and Cincinnati, where they performed "How? How?…" for the audience of the Playhouse in the Park. She has been heard on the airways of Public Radio, on MPR's Stage Sessions with Heather McElhatton, on Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor, on Mid Morning with Kerri Miller as part of Hippocrates Cafe, and as Dorothy in "Scarecrow on Fire" written by and performed with Kevin Kling. Simone recorded her first album at the UBS Forum-MPR studio in St. Paul, MN in front of a studio audience. "Hummingbird" was released in September of 2009 and features the brilliant words of Kevin Kling and the amazing talents of Prudence Johnson, Dan Chouinard, Robert Bell, Gary Schulte and The Brass Messengers.
When not performing, Simone spends her days cooking, gardening, crafting and raising a family with husband John and their new addition, Homer Zinn, welcomed into the world in February.

- Video scaling method
- Changes the size of a video frame in order to match the resolution of the display device. All methods here are non-adaptive so they may produce different amount of aliasing, blurring and edge halos. There are no best methods it's up to personal taste what method you should use. The methods are:
- Auto - If supported uses Lanczos3 Optimized when video resolution is lower than 720p (1280x720) and video FPS is lower than 30, otherwise it uses Bilinear.
- Bilinear - fairly simple and fast method (video resized with this method may appear slightly smoothed/blurred but with no edge halos also called ringing artifacts).
- Bicubic - more sophisticated method than Bilinear (more precise and slightly sharper video than Bilinear, but can introduce some ringing artifacts).
- Lanczos2 - 4-tap filter that uses a 2-lobe Lanczos windowed sinc function (sharper than Bicubic with less aliasing).
- Spline36 Optimized - 4-tap + 3-lobe filter, more precise than Lanczos2, which tries to produce the sharpest image with slightly less ringing artifacts then Lanczos3 Optimized (differences only noticeable with high resizing factors or when downsizing).
- Lanczos3 Optimized - 4-tap filter that uses a 3-lobe Lanczos windowed sinc function (comparable results to Spline36 Optimized, with less aliasing and more sharpness, but more ringing artifacts).
- Spline36, Lanczos31 - 6-tap filters that are more precise variants of above "Optimized" versions (they are sharper but might produce more ringing artifacts in some situations).
- Characteristics of different methods:
- Sharpness - Bilinear < Bicubic < Lanczos2 < Spline36 Optim < Lanczos3 Optim < Spline36 < Lanczos3
- Aliasing artifacts - Lanczos3 < Spline36 < Lanczos3 Optim < Spline36 Optim < Lanczos2 < Bicubic < Bilinear
- Ringing artifacts - Bilinear (no ringing) | Bicubic < Lanczos2 < Spline36 Optim < Lanczos3 Optim < Spline36 < Lanczos3
- 1 On GL builds these methods are slower than the optimized versions; this is the reason why they are not available by default but can be activated by advanced users in advancedsettings.xml

5 Video bookmarks
This feature allows you to create bookmarks within your videos in order to be able to return to a certain point in them. This could be compared to chapters in DVD videos. In order to create them, go to the point in your video that you wish to bookmark, select the button with the folded paper (from the Videos OSD), and select Create Bookmark. To jump to a previously stored bookmark, simply highlight and select it through the Videos OSD.
You can clear all the saved bookmarks by selecting Clear Bookmarks.
6 Subtitles
XBMC supports both stand-alone subtitle and embedded subtitles. Most major subtitle formats are supported. XBMC can also search and download subtitles directly from full screen playback.
7 Internet video and audio streams
Various internet video and audio streams can be played back in XBMC as if they were locally stored on your media center by using STRM files. As long as the format and streaming-method (network-protocol) is supported by XBMC, stream can be added. These are basic text files that look like <name>.strm and contain a URL to the internet stream. STRM files can also be added to the video library and can have cover art, summaries, etc.
Some internet sites may have an add-on available that can also access these media streams, rather than having to manually create STRM files. See Add-ons for more information on how to find and install add-ons.
8 Playlists
XBMC supports both basic playlists and smart playlists. A basic playlist is a normal text file that lists one or more media files (Audio or Video), and plays them in succession.
You can either create your own or use existing playlists from other sources, such as a playlist generated from Winamp, iTunes, or other sources. Basic playlists can be created and edited directly from XBMC's GUI.
9 UPnP
XBMC has several built-in UPnP A/V features, including the ability to receive UPnP and DLNA content pushed to XBMC, browse UPnP and DLNA media sources, sharing an XBMC library with other UPnP and DLNA devices, and even controlling UPnP and DLNA devices. UPnP is also the easiest way to share a library from one XBMC device to another.
10 AirPlay
As of v11 (Eden), XBMC supports being an AirPlay target, allowing any device/platform that can run XBMC to receive AirPlay content from an iOS or iTunes source (as well as other 3rd party AirPlay sources for desktops and even Android).
11 On-Screen Video Diagnostics
On Screen Video Diagnostics, or Codec Info, can be displayed when a video is playing by pressing O, or the corresponding control on your remote.
A detailed explanation of the displayed values can be found on the Codecinfo page.

Saving for Another Day
Lickhalter addressed the problem by searching for equipment that could handle those jobs in-house. "We started searching for a tape machine that would feed filament tape and cut it" he says. "We found one in Air Fixtures. Then we needed to buy a bag sealer to avoid doing that job by hand which could lead to carpal tunnel syndrome. We found the Plas-Ties machine. It's been wonderful. Whoever invented it was a genius."
Without that equipment Lickhalter says "we would have never done the job in-house."
Sealing in savings
With the acquisitions of the tape dispenser and twist-tie machines Another Day researched for an induction sealer on the Internet. At that time the company had a job due in two weeks. Pillar had the Unifoiler in stock and the company bought it and put it to work immediately.
A key benefit to the machine according to Lickhalter "is that the 3000-C sealer uses a flat heat-sealing coil that doesn't require the bottles to be in a set path to go under the coil. Some sealers have grooves that you have to run the bottles below so that they go into a track." He adds that "the price was in-line with our budget" as another major plus.
Lickhalter says the company typically runs the induction sealer about twice a week for three or four hours. "We've been very happy with the Pillar machine."
Short runs begin when the screen-printed bottles are positioned on a turntable then conveyed into the filler purchased a couple of years ago from Equipment Express (LaPorte IN). Filled bottles are hand-capped with different-style closures for different products. Lickhalter says automatic capping equipment isn't economically justifiable at this time.
Capped bottles index along the conveyor to the Pillar induction sealer that adheres the cap's liner to the mouth of the bottle. "We use different bottle sizes but the ones that we induction seal are primarily 16- and 32-ounce versions either 24-410 or 28-400" Lickhalter notes. "The machine is easy to use and we can adjust the height [to accommodate bottle height differences] press a button to whatever power level we want hit the start button and off they go."
Induction-sealed bottles are conveyed to a station where an employee retorques the cap to the bottle with the Accutek machine. "It works somewhat like a power drill" explains Lickhalter "in that you pull it down from a pulley and put it over the top of the cap to tighten it."
Afterward the foot-operated Air Fixtures machine dispenses three 2"Wx6"L strips of tape at a time. A strip is applied to further secure the cap to the bottle. An operator places the bottle into a clear unprinted low-density polyethylene bag. Sometimes a sprayer handle is packed separately into the bag before the Plas-Ties machine closes the bag with a twist tie.
Either 12 or 20 bagged bottles are hand-packed into a corrugated shipping case. Palletization and stretch wrapping are also completed manually. Shipments are made nationwide by truck with 80% of Another Day's products sold to the pet market where the liquid cleaners are meant to help pet owners clean urine stains and help retrain their cats and dogs. The products are also used by some zoos and to clean piers. The remaining 20% of products are sold to janitorial services to clean carpeting and mattresses at hospitals motels and hotels. In all the company makes 13 different products sold in containers as small as 8-oz bottles to as large as 55-gal drums. The retail liquid cleaners typically sell at prices ranging from $5.99 to $16.99.
Asked to summarize the benefits of in-house bottling and to determine a return on investment for the $12 spent by the company for the induction sealer tape dispenser and twist-tie machine Lickhalter estimates an ROI "of probably four to six months. We have a profitable business and now we have the flexibility to do our short runs in-house.
"In the past we were paying someone else about 41 cents per bottle when you add up the costs to fill induction seal tape put the bottle into the bag and twist-tie it. That's because much of the work was done manually at the contract packager. Now that we're doing those short runs in-house we're saving at least 25 cents per bottle."

Here goes everything…the run edition
Here is the third and final portion of my harrowing first attempt at an Olympic distance triathlon, the run edition.
After getting off the bike I knew how I would feel, my legs would be wobbly and feel like lead and my spirit would still be a bit down. Knowing these things I just got off my bike and started pulling off my cycling gear. I popped on my new runners with my "go faster" elastic laces, which are the total bomb by the way.
Off I go and the first part is an up hill, one of the few hills on this course. Hmmm not feeling too bad when are the lead legs going to come? … BOOM there they are. Just keep running, running, running. Got about a km in to the run and I needed to walk. Now I don't like to walk in a running race, in fact it irritates me to walk and it irritates me when others walk and then end up beating me, but that is my own head trash. Part of the reason I don't like to walk is that it is so hard to get myself motivated to get running again. For the first lap of the 5 km route I did a lot of run/walking. Near the end of the first loop Mark met up with me because he thought something had happened to me, like I had quit or something. He walked along side me for a while which just made me get choked up and I thanked him for the moral support but let him go on his way because I couldn't stop crying. Weird!
The second loop was much better. I was able to run a more than walk and I even started to pass a couple of people. I kept a couple in my sights but I wasn't able to catch up to them. All in all not a great example of my running ability, but then again it is not just a running race it is a triathlon and all of the disciplines influence each other. I wonder if I had not had such a brutal time in the swim if I would have had more psychological "energy" for the bike and run?
As I was coming up to the last corner I saw a mirage… One of my teammates (Gary S) was walking around the bend. He was coming to look for me. He stuck by me and encouraged me to keep running, bring it home. For some reason his presence didn't make me cry. He even called ahead to let someone know that I was almost at the home stretch. Coming down the finish chute was such a great feeling! I actually finished a race that I thought was over from the start. As I crossed the finish line I saw all of my friends and family there cheering me on and I teared up once again, such an emotional day, my goodness. I think I always have the best cheering group on any race. Mark, Mom, Dad, Meredith, Mike and Heather.
If I ever wonder if paying for coaching is a good idea when I am such a newbie. I should just remember that my coach was at the finish line waiting for the very last one from the team to finish and gave me a big congratulatory hug. We are so lucky to live here in Penticton where we can train with great coaches and swim, bike and run on the Ironman Canada course.
I have a great post brewing about a confidence building race I just participated in. Stay tuned.

Found February 01, 2013 on
Down and Distance:
After a rather peculiar offer, if Colin Kaepernick wins the Super Bowl on Sunday, he will receive free Red Robin for the rest of his life (Credit: AP Photo)
For some, the best part of the week prior to the Super Bowl is all of the questions players are asked by the media. Last week, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick was asked by a financial adviser from New York where the quarterback would like to go out to dinner, he chose Red Robin.
According to the profile, the 49ers quarterback is fond of Red Robin.
A member of the Red Robin corporate offices read the story and decided to cash in on Kaepernick's success and his love of Red Robin.
If Colin Kaepernick and the San Francisco 49ers win on Sunday, the star quarterback receives free Red Robin for the rest of his life.
According to the letter written by CEO Steve Carley, the company is "ecstatic" that Kapernick is a fan and says "there's been an abundance of bicep kissing and screams of "touchdown!" among our Red Robin Team Members lately." He then offered the free food, plus a two-for-one burger offer for all customers at San Francisco-area locations if the 49ers win.
While Kaepernick is sure to get a new contract soon that will allow him to afford fancier places than Red Robin, this has to be one of the best offers for winning the Super Bowl.
Win or lose, I am sure Kaepernick will be eating a Red Robin burger next week.
The post Colin Kaepernick will get free Red Robin for life if he wins Super Bowl appeared first on DOWN & DISTANCE.

Soap, Swabs Slash Infection Rates by 44%
"We wanted to test this is a real-world situation. Most studies are done in academic medical centers with very tight inclusion and exclusion criteria," he says, adding that similar results would likely be applicable in nearly every hospital.
Septimus offered several reasons for why universal decolonization is not more widely used now.
"First, its effectiveness hadn't been proven before this study. Secondly there can be local side effects from applying the antibiotic solution, although those were very unusual. Third, we are monitoring this to make sure the bacteria don't develop resistance to the bathing," he says.
"There is a downside to the overexposure. We have to make sure that we do no harm long term. Right now in terms of the risk/benefit ratio the benefit to the patient has been overwhelming and the risk appears to be very small," he says.

Home > Competitive > Guild Wars Factions Championship > Interviews
The Guild Wars Factions World Championship is coming up! Who do you think will win?
Will it be one of the European or Korean guilds? Or will one of the two American region guilds take first place?
We asked questions about the practice and build philosophies of the participating guilds. Here are the answers we received from one of the two American guilds, Treacherous Empire.
Q. Who in your guild designs the team builds you use, or is it a group effort?
We like to think of most of our builds as a collaborative group effort. Someone starts off with a few basic ideas, and then we tinker and modify it until we find something that is cohesive and effective. We sometimes also watch observer mode and steal anything that looks good.
Q. How much time do you guys spend practicing together?
We try to play as often as we can together, but having so many different schedules to work around is tough. On average, we probably play together with our tournament roster about eight to ten hours per week.
Q. Does the guild usually use the same core players for all of its competitive matches, or do you switch out often?
We have a large chunk of the same core players we've had since GWWC still around, but we have added some new players recently. We try to keep around 10-12 players on rotation so we can always deal with someone being away for real life issues.
Q. Is there anything special you do to prepare for a big event like the GWFC?
We try to prepare by doing unrated scrims with top guilds we're friends with.
Q. What guild do you think is your biggest competitor heading into the GWFC in Germany?
Our good friends EvIL are more than likely the favorite to win it all again with their track record and recent Season Three victory. But this time around every guild attending does have a very legitimate chance of winning.
Q. What guild's performance has surprised/impressed you the most during any of the seasonal playoffs?
SotW and MH have come seemingly out of nowhere to prove that they are among the world's top teams, and will continue to do so in future seasons. Wi also had the biggest upset in GW tournament history thus far in Season Two, giving EvIL its first ever playoff loss.
Q. Did you choose your build to play to your team's strength, or what you felt was your foe's weakness?
We always used to try and just play to our strengths, but after a rough loss in Season Two, we realized that sometimes counters are needed.
Q. Which match do you feel was the most interesting/challenging for your guild?
Playing against our friends EvIL in Season One was a great challenge, as we had never faced them in tournament play before or since then.
Q. What has been the "highlight" moment for your team?
Qualifying for both GWWC and GWFC have been very proud moments for us as a guild.

Mmmmm...no, it was the hacking community that brought GB to the D1 - it never officially received it
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
Printable View
There was definitely an official OTA update for the original Droid before the X2. I am 100% sure of this because us X2 owners were up in arms that we had so many issues but still were one of the last to get the update. Yes, there was a hacked version of GB out before that, but an official one was released. It might have been the Droid X and not the OG, but still that's almost a year before the X2. Pretty sure OG Droid got it too though...
Not for GB. The OG DROID never got it via ota officially.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using DroidForums
Didn't the x2 ship with GB? Froyo was the last major software update the OG received and that was well before the x2 even came out.
Edit: I do see your point though as the OG DROID did receive Froyo before newer phones such as the dinc and DROID x.
Sent from my DROID3 using DroidForums
U might be confusing the original droid with the DROIDX... gingerbread went to the DROIDX b4 it went to the DROIDX2..
From what i understand is that the original droid got gb thru rooting and hacking.
I wouldn't be suprised if the bionic got ice cream but i would be suprised if it was with 6 months from october (this month) especially when u consider how long it took gb to get to the DROIDX.. and also motorola's track record with their updates - however, the google and motorila partnership may make updates release much quicker.. but who knows lol
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using DroidForums
And yes, the/my X2 shipped with GB... and the DX was first and till recently (if I'm not mistaken) the only one to officially get the OTA GB ... As motorola, however slow, seems to have been the first manufacturer to get the updates, their new merger will most likely impact future updates. As for requiring duel cores for ICS? I've read somewhere, that Honeycomb does not, so likely a version of ICS will be avail for single core devices as well... Perhaps, and I can hope, this will carry over to the single core tablets like the orig galaxy tab...
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using DroidForums
^The X2 did not have GB on its release day. The early buyers got it via OTA.
Don't rem the release day, sorry... The one I got at the corp store how ever, did have it?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using DroidForums
The last official OS version for the OG is Froyo 2.2.2
GB was never designed for that phone.
