Yankees Down South: Dispatch From Spring Training
On Sunday afternoon, Brian Cashman, general manager of the New York Yankees, stood by the dugout at George M. Steinbrenner Field in Tampa watching the team take batting practice prior to a spring training matchup against the Detroit Tigers. A pair of dark glasses shielded Mr. Cashman's eyes from the bright Florida rays, but his mostly bald crown was exposed. A man walked up to Mr. Cashman and gave him a warm greeting.
"What's cooking?" the man asked.
"My head," Mr. Cashman replied tersely.
The 44-year-old GM has plenty of reasons to feel the heat aside from the temperatures in Tampa, which topped 80 degrees nearly every day this month. Mr. Cashman spent much of the offseason dealing with a sex scandal that saw photos of his alleged pajama pants make the blog headlines and found him in court facing an alleged mistress he claims stalked and harassed him.

Online Charitable Registration System Marks First Year

Online Charitable Registration System Marks First Year
Boosting transparency and accountability within the charitable sector were among the biggest goals of launching an
online charitable registration system
in the Ohio Attorney General's Office a year ago. And with information for 30,000 charitable organizations now publicly available for the first time, those goals are on the way to being met.
Peter Thomas, chief of the AG's Charitable Law Section, said the new functionality allowing members of the public to research information about organizations registered in Ohio has been popular.
"For the first time, we are able to share the information that is provided through the registration process with the public, and we are planning to continually expand the information that is available," he said.
Thomas acknowledged that whenever there are significant changes to major systems, there can be some rough spots.
"Unfortunately, some of our constituents had some technical problems. We believe that our IT department has helped iron out many of those glitches," he said. "But many constituents have provided comments about how intuitive and straight-forward the new system is, and we are particularly proud of that feedback because that is how we tried to design the system."
Thomas noted that the statutory language surrounding charitable filings is not intuitive, so an important goal of developing the system was to try to make it easier for charitable constituents to comply with their responsibilities. Leaders no longer need to worry about which of two different statutory registration schemes might apply to a particular organization because the system makes that determination automatically based on the data provided, he noted.
Thomas said the new system allows multiple users to have accounts connected to the data for an organization. Everyone connected with an organization will receive reminders about filing deadlines, confirmations on activities, and notices whenever anyone makes a change to the information.
"This helps us identify when fraudulent filings are made since everyone connected with the organization will know and can contact us when suspicious activities take place. This kind of transparency wasn't possible with paper filings," Thomas said.
The system was also designed to accommodate users such as accountants and lawyers working with multiple organizations who can complete parts of the filing and have clients review the information within the system before submitting it or paying fees.
Most states have some sort of charitable registration requirements in place, and Ohio's system dates to the mid-1950s. Thomas said some in the charitable sector fail to understand that there is a dual system of oversight between the IRS, which grants tax-exempt status and has rules surrounding use of that designation, and the state's responsibility to ensure that charitable assets are properly used.
"Our duty to stand in the shoes of those intended to benefit from charitable resources dates to the Middle Ages," he noted. Based on statistics, there is higher chance that charities will hear from Ohio regulators than from IRS officials about the activities of a charity. The Charitable Law Section has broad authority to investigate and can file litigation to recover assets and work with local law enforcement when criminal activities are involved.
Prior to adoption of the online filing system, the Charitable Law Section did not have the resources to convert information from hard-copy filings into a usable database. In addition to being able to now share information online, the section can also generate reports, analyze data, and conduct other tests to further examine the information provided in the filings to identify possible red flags, he said.
The Charitable Advisory Council, a group of individuals throughout the state that helps the section define some of its goals and programs, worked with staff in developing the online system. "We had accountants, lawyers, and representatives of big and small groups working with us on the process of designing the system, and we were appreciative for their help in steering this project," Thomas said.
The Attorney General's website includes resources to answer questions users might have about the online registration system. Orange question marks are scattered throughout the pages of the online system and indicate additional information for users. A guide is also available online. Charity representatives can also register for a
monthly webinar
on the system, which is held at noon on the third Wednesday of each month. Staff members are also available to field questions at 800-252-0515 or by e-mail at

Return of the tax attack chain e-mail!
By Angie Drobnic Holan
Published on Monday, August 4th, 2008 at 6:26 p.m.
SUMMARY: A chain e-mail lays out the alleged differences between Barack Obama and John McCain on tax policy. It actually gets both candidates' positions wrong. And wrong. And wrong again ...
A chain e-mail claims that Sen. Barack Obama intends to raise pretty much all your taxes, while Sen. John McCain will leave them alone. The problem is that most of the e-mail's detailed assertions are false.
Fans of chain e-mails will recognize this latest e-mail as a twist on one we checked during the Democratic primary. That one compared both Obama and Hillary Clinton's respective tax plans with McCain's. This latest version, sent to PolitiFact by more than a dozen readers, leaves out Clinton and adds new "scarier" details, such as the false claim that Obama will tax all home sales.
We'll start at the beginning of the e-mail, go through its allegations and discuss its numerous inaccuracies. (Read the full text of the chain e-mail we're checking.)
Capital gains taxes
The e-mail begins with a charge about home sales. It says McCain will leave the existing capital gains taxes at 0 percent on home sales of up to $500,000 per home for couples, while Obama proposes a 28 percent tax on all home sales.
"If you are heading toward retirement and would like to down-size your home or move into a retirement community, 28% of the money you make from your home will go to taxes," the e-mail states.
First, let's briefly explain what capital gains taxes are. A capital asset is "almost everything you own and use for personal purposes, pleasure or investment," says the Internal Revenue Service. If you sell an asset and make a profit on it, that's a capital gain. Capital gains taxes vary depending on the tax filer's income and how long the asset has been held, but generally taxes on capital gains are measured by the long-term rate for upper-income tax brackets. Currently that rate is 15 percent.
There are exemptions to the capital gains tax, however, and one of the best-known exemptions is on home sales. In general, if you own your home and sell it for a profit, you are not taxed on the first $250,000 of profit if you are single, or on the first $500,000 of profit if you are a married couple. Neither McCain nor Obama has proposed changing this exemption.
The e-mail says that McCain supports capital gains taxes of "0 percent on home sales of up to $500,000 per home for couples." Technically, this is inaccurate, because the sales price on its own doesn't matter. It's the profit that matters (what you paid for the home minus what you're selling it for). Profits up to $500,000 per couple are exempt, no matter what the sales price.
The e-mail states "Obama will charge a 28 percent tax on all home sales." That's wrong. Obama intends to keep the same exemption for home sales as McCain. Most home sales under Obama's plan would also be taxed at 0 percent, unless, as we explained, profits on the home sale are more than $250,000 for a single person or $500,000 for couples.
We don't want to give the impression that there is no difference on the two candidates on capital gains tax, but the e-mail gets all the details wrong. The true difference is that McCain intends to leave the long-term capital gains tax at 15 percent, while Obama intends to raise it to about 25 percent for taxpayers reporting income of $250,000 or more per year.
But when it comes to home sales with the profits described above, McCain and Obama's policies are the same.
Dividends taxes
The e-mail also gets a number of things wrong about dividends taxes. Dividends are payments that companies make to stockholders as a way of distributing profits. Dividends taxes are now generally set at 15 percent. Obama has proposed raising them to as high as 28 percent, but possibly lower. The e-mail claims that Obama wants to raise them as high as 39.6 percent; this is incorrect.
There are other factual problems with what the e-mail says about dividends taxes.
"If you have any money invested in stock market, IRA, mutual funds, college funds, life insurance, retirement accounts, or anything that pays or reinvests dividends, you will now be paying nearly 40% of the money earned on taxes if Obama become president," the e-mail states.
That's not right. Any sort of ongoing tax-exempt investment — a 401(k), an IRA, and some types of college savings — would not require the holder to pay dividends taxes. The e-mail gives the impression that it would.
Finally, we've previously checked the e-mail's claim that experts "predict that higher tax rates on dividends and capital gains would crash the stock market yet do absolutely nothing to cut the deficit." We found that statement Barely True . Increases to dividends taxes would not crash the stock market.
Income taxes
The e-mail then claims that Obama will raise taxes on a variety of income tax brackets. Again it gets most of its numbers wrong. Obama has said he will not raise income taxes for people making less than $250,000.
It also gets its numbers wrong about the current tax rates. For a detailed analysis of the correct taxes for different tax brackets, read our previous item here .
Inheritance tax
The e-mail next mauls the facts concerning the inheritance tax, which is actually called the estate tax. The e-mail claims that George W. Bush "repealed" the estate tax, and it now stands at 0 percent. Though Bush reduced the tax, he did not repeal it. Rather, under his 2001 tax cut package, the estate tax reduces every year and then goes away for just a single year — 2010 — before reverting back to higher rates. (See the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center on estate taxes for more details.)
Currently, the estate tax generally applies only to estates worth more than $2-million (or $4-million for couples). Above those amounts, the tax rate tops out at 45 percent. Both Obama and McCain support renewing the current estate tax with a few changes. McCain proposes to increase the exemption to $5-million ($10-million for couples) and reduce the tax rate to 15 percent. Obama proposes to increase the exemption to $3.5-million ($7-million for couples) and leave the top rate at 45 percent.
So the e-mail is wrong when it says McCain wants a "0 percent" estate tax and that Obama wants to "restore" it . We ruled both of these statements False.
Other taxes
The e-mail concludes with a laundry list of other taxes Obama supposedly advocates. If you've read this far, you won't be surprised to learn that the e-mail is wrong here, too.
We'll address these claims one by one.
• "New government taxes proposed on homes that are more than 2400 square feet."
No, Obama does not propose this. And we're not sure where the 2,400-square-feet number comes from.
• "New gasoline taxes (as if gas weren't high enough already)"
Obama does not propose any new taxes on gasoline at the pump. He has said he intends to "close loopholes" on taxes for oil and gas companies.
• "New taxes on natural resources consumption (heating gas, water, electricity)"
Obama has not proposed any new taxes on "heating gas, water, electricity" or other utilities. He has said that in principle he supports taxes on energy sources that pollute, but he has not proposed any specific measures as part of his overall tax plan. (We checked a statement from John McCain that Obama says he will raise taxes on electricity and found it Barely True .)
• "New taxes on retirement accounts"
Obama has not proposed new taxes on retirement accounts.
• "New taxes to pay for socialized medicine so we can receive the same level of medical care as other third-world countries!!!"
We'll save the "socialized medicine" line for another day and say that Obama intends to pay for his health care plan with tax increases on people making over $250,000. We did find that Sen. Hillary Clinton's health care plan did not constitute "socialism"; Obama's plan is similar to Clinton's though Obama's plan does not include a mandate requiring people to purchase health care.
In conclusion, there are real differences between the Obama and McCain tax plans. One of the most detailed analysis is from the Tax Policy Center; read their report here .
Obama intends to raise the tax burden significantly on upper incomes, those making $250,000 or more. The chain e-mail doesn't hint much at that difference and instead deploys many false statements to imply that Obama will raise taxes on middle-class people. We find its broader argument false.

Welcome to Team Austin's personal JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes fundraising page!
Our family will be taking part in this year's Walk to raise funds for the millions of people living with and affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D).
As many of you know, on March 29th 2013, Austin was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes just 2 days before Easter. Since then our family has come a long way from not having any knowlege of diabetes and having huge fears of what was going to happen. Austin has shown what a strong little boy he truly is, from finger pricking to 4 shots a day he has proven day in and day out that diabetes does not control him, he controls his diabetes! Austin's bravery of pricking his own fingers to test his blood sugar levels and injecting himself, by needle, with insulin has been an inspiration to his family and friends.
For those that do not know or may have some confusion aboutType 1 diabetes , here are a few facts (not to be confused with facts about Type 2 diabetes):
-Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease (it is NOT from eating too much sugar!)
-To stay ALIVE a diabetic must check their blood sugar at least 5 times a day, for those on injections, injecting insulin at least 4 times a day, for those on the pump. change a pump site every 1-3 days, and infuse insulin into their body 24 hours a day.
-Insulin is their lifeline NOT a cure! -Before they can even think about eating, their food must be calculated and count the carbs and calculate the insulin to be dosed.
JDRF is the largest nongovernmental funder of T1D research and the only global organization with a strategic research plan to fight T1D. This science is complex and costly, and every dollar JDRF is able to direct toward research comes from donors like you.
Please support us and donate to our Walk fundraising campaign. Your gift will make a difference for millions of people affected by this devastating, life-threatening disease. Won't you please give to JDRF as generously as possible today? Thank you for your support!

My Problem
Increasingly poor performance, frequent beach balls. Ran Disk Utility - SMART check indicated 'FAILED'. Consensus on web fora was: The drive is dying, just get a new one.
This is a 15" Macbook Pro; I bought direct from Apple, refurbished.
Only 3 ½ years old, but I think it broke down because I dropped it one too many times :}
My Fix
Perfectly well. Sorry, didn't take any photos; I was consumed with doing it slowly and carefully, trying hard not to foul it up.
My Advice
Just follow the instructions carefully, make sure you're grounded, and don't touch anything you're not supposed to!
My Problem
Partitioned my HD too much and there were errors with the kernel_task. Went to the apple store and a tech specialist suggested (under the table) to switch HD with a new one and so I did.
My Fix
It went well, i loved the smooth step by step hardware side ifixit gave. But word of caution for future, mention on your step by step fix to format the new HD to Mac compatible before you install it, I had to boot my old OSX and format the new HD to Mac compatible, then install OSX on it. After that bump on the road, everything went smooth, and my MBP runs like new. although I want to upgrade more stuff from it now that I know how easy iFixit made this possible. So thank you so much for all the knowledge you guys provide!
My Advice
Format new HD to Mac compatible first, then install OSX on it either before or after installing in your device.
My Problem
Original Hard drive started to skip and was unreadable after a fall from the couch.
My Fix
Very easy to install in the computer but had a problem reinstalling OSx.
My Advice
Had to create a part ion under disc utility in order for the hard drive to show up when trying to reinstall OSx. Not sure if this is a standard step I was unaware of but would not show up before I did this. Works perfect after this, was able to install osx and computer is running like brand new except faster.
My Problem
My mac had started to become very slow, then eventually I got the folder with the question mark, I had this issue before so I decided to change the hard drive, sadly that was not the issue, I later found out that it was also my hard drive cable that had gone sour. I am currently waiting for the cable, but after that, it should be good to go.
My Fix
It went good, I had never done anything like this before, but with the toolset that I also ordered with the hard drive, it was a breeze, the videos are very easy to follow. It wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be.
My Advice
It's not as hard as you might think, just follow the instructions and don't loose the tiny screws!! :D
My Problem
To be clear, this is much more of an upgrade than a "fix." The goal was to keep my mix-2010 MacBook Pro running smoothly through at least the next two years while I'm still in school. I use a handful of heavy applications, sometimes at the same time, and I had noticed the RAM getting overburdened in ways that it never had before. Instead of buying a new computer, which isn't quite yet justifiable with a 2010, I decided to drop a few hundred dollars and double the RAM (from 2x2gb to 2x4gb) and upgrade the stock 250gb standard HD to a 500gb Solid State Hybrid HD.
While I was at it, I decided to replace the optical drive with a caddy, and put my old 250gb hard drive into that to use as an internal TimeMachine drive.
My Fix
Changing the hard drive and RAM was super easy and more straightforward than I anticipated.
When removing the stock optical drive, I had some trouble with a stripped screw (which is apparently very common), but that is outside the scope of these products.
My Advice
The ~$250 I spent on this upgrade is surely worth it, especially considering the cost of a new computer. I expect this new setup to get me through a few more years, after which I'll upgrade my computer.
My Problem
Original HD going bad. Battery doesn't hold charge long. Memory was at min. i had contemplated on replacing above and due to experience with PC based laptops.
My Fix
Got the 500g SSD Hybrid, Fast easy install.
Replaced battery and works as original battery.
Memory upgraded to 8gb.
My Advice
I'm glad the i went ahead and did the replacements of above items. It's well worth the expense and runs as it originally did, fast. Advice, upgrade what you can if you can afford to. Mac products last longer than PC and well worth the expense. Only took me 30-45 min to complete upgrade/replace
My Problem
After a brief fall, my computer didn't work anymore. I couldn't get it strating. Anyway, i change the hard driver thanks to Ifixit, easy really. 10 minutes later, MacBook Pro alright !
My Fix
Smooth !
My Advice
Just one, don't Forget to create a partition on your hard driver if you want it to work. (and sorry for my language)
My Problem
I had some problems with my session on Mavericks so i wanted to come back to OS X Mountain Lion without erasing my HD and have a new HD hybrid!
My Fix
The repair was really easy!!! The problem was the installation of the OS X on my new HD! It didn't work on the first time with network connection and reboot program so I had to make an image of OS X on my old HD.
My Advice
Be careful to do an image of OS X before changing your HD! It will be easier for you ton install the OS on the new HD!
My Problem
Hard Drive Crashed
My Fix
Watched the video and the replacement hard drive was easy to install and works great.
My Advice
If you are replacing your hard drive, do your research, watch iFixit's you tube video on how to do it. And buy your hard drive from them. Best price around, fast delivery, I was very happy with my overall experience. Thank you! Tony N. Boston, MA
My Problem
Got a new solid-state HDD to improve boot up and shut down times on my MacBook Pro (which had gotten insanely slow despite extra RAM). Old drive still works, I just wanted something a little peppier.
My Fix
The drive arrived on time and in good condition. I even got it physically installed in the machine with no problem, but that's where things started to go wrong.
I got fail after fail when I tried to install Mavericks from the USB install disk (which was its own nightmare to figure out how to do). IFixIt phone support was very patient and suggested a few solutions I hadn't thought of, but nothing worked. Eventually, they even offered to send me a new HDD in case it was a problem with the hardware. It wasn't.
Turns out I probably had an incomplete recover/install drive. I followed the instructions on IFixIt's online guides, but they don't cover Mavericks so well. After more than a week of messing with the thing, I found good advice elsewhere online and got the new HDD up and running!
My Advice
To make a workable Mavericks install drive using a USB or external drive, follow these instructions: http://mashable.com/2013/10/23/clean-ins.... Using Apple's Disk Recovery software doesn't seem to work for Mavericks (yet).
If OSX goes through the first few steps of installation but repeatedly tells you that Apple "can't verify" the software because it was "corrupted or tampered with," the problem is likely that the date and time are set wrong on your computer. Go into the Utilities menu on the recovery screen and open up Terminal. Set the current date and time using all numbers in MMDDHHMMYYYY format. If it's 11:15 pm on Nov. 11, 2013, type:
date 111111152013
Don't forget the command line "date" before it!
This should solve any problems with software certificate authentication.
Finally, unless you're sure - absolutely positive - that you have a torx T6 screwdriver, just order the conversion kit from iFixIt! The extra $20 is a bargain for the HDD enclosure and the screwdriver.

The combination of two of the twentieth century's most influential and revolutionary scientific theories, information theory and quantum mechanics, gave rise to a radically new view of computing and information. Quantum information processing explores the implications of using quantum mechanics instead of classical mechanics to model information and its processing. Quantum computing is not about changing the physical substrate on which computation is done from classical to quantum but about changing the notion of computation itself, at the most basic level.
This text offers an introduction to quantum computing, with a special emphasis on basic quantum physics, experiment, and quantum devices. Unlike many other texts, which tend to emphasize algorithms, Quantum Computing without Magic explains the requisite quantum physics in some depth, and then explains the devices themselves.
"I hope that readers will learn to use the full expressibility and power of OpenMP. This book should provide an excellent introduction to beginners, and the performance section should help those with some experience who want to push OpenMP to its limits." —from the foreword by David J. Kuck, Intel Fellow, Software and Solutions Group, and Director, Parallel and Distributed Solutions, Intel Corporation
High-performance message-based supercomputers have only recently emerged from the research laboratory. The commercial manufacturing of such products as the Intel iPSC, the Ametek s/14, the NCUBE/ten, and the FPS T Series - all based on multicomputer network technology - has sparked lively interest in high-performance computation, and particularly in the message-passing paradigm for parallel computation.
Use of Beowulf clusters (collections of off-the-shelf commodity computers programmed to act in concert, resulting in supercomputer performance at a fraction of the cost) has spread far and wide in the computational science community. Many application groups are assembling and operating their own "private supercomputers" rather than relying on centralized computing centers. Such clusters are used in climate modeling, computational biology, astrophysics, and materials science, as well as non-traditional areas such as financial modeling and entertainment.
As we enter the "decade of data," the disparity between the vast amount of data storage capacity (measurable in terabytes and petabytes) and the bandwidth available for accessing it has created an input/output bottleneck that is proving to be a major constraint on the effective use of scientific data for research.
Beowulf clusters, which exploit mass-market PC hardware and software in conjunction with cost-effective commercial network technology, are becoming the platform for many scientific, engineering, and commercial applications. With growing popularity has come growing complexity. Addressing that complexity, Beowulf Cluster Computing with Linux and Beowulf Cluster Computing with Windows provide system users and administrators with the tools they need to run the most advanced Beowulf clusters.
The Message Passing Interface (MPI) specification is widely used for solving significant scientific and engineering problems on parallel computers. There exist more than a dozen implementations on computer platforms ranging from IBM SP-2 supercomputers to clusters of PCs running Windows NT or Linux ("Beowulf" machines). The initial MPI Standard document, MPI-1, was recently updated by the MPI Forum. The new version, MPI-2, contains both significant enhancements to the existing MPI core and new features.
Supercomputing research--the goal of which is to make computers that are ever faster and more powerful--has been at the cutting edge of computer technology since the early 1960s. Until recently, research cost in the millions of dollars, and many of the companies that originally made supercomputers are now out of business.The early supercomputers used distributed computing and parallel processing to link processors together in a single machine, often called a mainframe.
ZPL is a new array programming language for science and engineering computation. Designed for fast execution on both sequential and parallel computers, it is intended to replace languages such as Fortran and C. Because ZPL benefits from recent research in parallel compilation, it provides a convenient high-level programming medium for supercomputers with efficiency comparable to hand-coded message-passing programs.
Since its release in summer 1994, the Message Passing Interface (MPI) specification has become a standard for message-passing libraries for parallel computations. There exist more than a dozen implementations on a variety of computing platforms, from the IBM SP-2 supercomputer to PCs running Windows NT. The initial MPI Standard, known as MPI-1, has been modified over the last two years. This volume, the definitive reference manual for the latest version of MPI-1, contains a complete specification of the MPI Standard.

The Fortran 95 Handbook, a comprehensive reference work for the Fortran programmer and implementor, contains a complete description of the Fortran 95 programming language. The chapters follow the same sequence of topics as the Fortran 95 standard, but contain a more thorough and informal explanation of the language's features and many more examples. Appendices describe all the intrinsic features, the deprecated features, and the complete syntax of the language.
PLAPACK is a library infrastructure for the parallel implementation of linear algebra algorithms and applications on distributed memory supercomputers such as the Intel Paragon, IBM SP2, Cray T3D/T3E, SGI PowerChallenge, and Convex Exemplar. This infrastructure allows library developers, scientists, and engineers to exploit a natural approach to encoding so-called blocked algorithms, which achieve high performance by operating on submatrices and subvectors.
Foreword by Bjarne Stroustrup
This text evolved from a new curriculum in scientific computing that was developed to teach undergraduate science and engineering majors how to use high-performance computing systems (supercomputers) in scientific and engineering applications.
Parallel computers have become widely available in recent years. Many scientists are now using them to investigate the grand challenges of science, such as modeling global climate change, determining the masses of elementary particles from first principles, or sequencing the human genome. However, software for parallel computers has developed far more slowly than the hardware.
Building a computer ten times more powerful than all the networked computing capability in the United States is the subject of this book by leading figures in the high performance computing community. It summarizes the near-term initiatives, including the technical and policy agendas for what could be a twenty-year effort to build a petaFLOP scale computer. (A FLOP—Floating Point OPeration—is a standard measure of computer performance and a PetaFLOP computer would perform a million billion of these operations per second.)
Written by the team that developed the software, this tutorial is the definitive resource for scientists, engineers, and other computer users who want to use PVM to increase the flexibility and power of their high-performance computing resources. PVM introduces distributed computing, discusses where and how to get the PVM software, provides an overview of PVM and a tutorial on setting up and running existing programs, and introduces basic programming techniques including putting PVM in existing code.
High Performance Fortran (HPF) is a set of extensions to Fortran expressing parallel execution at a relatively high level. For the thousands of scientists, engineers, and others who wish to take advantage of the power of both vector and parallel supercomputers, five of the principal authors of HPF have teamed up here to write a tutorial for the language.

Columbia schools considering gun policy
A Columbia school district committee is considering a plan to allow two employees to carry guns on school grounds.
The Columbia Daily Tribune reports (http://bit.ly/YG84BQ ) that the policy would allow the district's director and assistant director of security to carry firearms on school property. The proposal says the two employees would be allowed to carry one handgun each.
The current policy allows only school resource officers, who are employed through the Columbia Police Department, to carry weapons on campus.
The board discussed the same policy in 2011, and it did not pass. The policy committee took up the issue again in the wake of the recent school shooting in Connecticut.
The policy is planned to go before the school board in May.

Kip the caterpillar 'comes to life'
Published on Wed, Dec 17, 2008 by
Ashley Miller
Read More
When Sally Harris wrote "The Caterpillar's Dream," her vision was to have children all over the U.S. read about the small caterpillar that nods off to sleep and dreams he can fly.
Like Kip, the book's main character, the project has sprouted wings.
Published in August 2007, "The Caterpillar's Dream" immediately became part of the eight-book "Little Nuggets" series produced by Journey Stone Creations. Only months later, the book was picked up by Maggie Tales, a new company that digitalizes children's books directly to computers, iPods and iPhones.
Now, "The Caterpillar's Dream" has gone one step further. Children all over the world can learn and play with Kip in doctor's offices, on airplanes, at home - anywhere - through iKids Play: Creative play for "i" generation kids!
iKids Play provides children - and adults - with educational activities that include rubbing the screen to reveal hidden images, coloring book pages, story time, reading and recording aloud, and a finger paint pad.
iKids play is available in more than 18 countries. "The Caterpillar's Dream" is the first children's book adopted by iKids Play; the second book is expected to launch by the end of the month.
The new technology is being used at Sequim Valley Smiles orthodontics office, where Harris works, for children to play with while passing time in the waiting room or to ease their nerves in the exam chair.
"How neat is it for them to have something to distract them," Harris said. "It's a fun, creative and educational device."
A "rub in color" touch screen allows children to view the book by rubbing the screen and erasing a picture of Kip the caterpillar to view the words as a voice reads the story aloud. A "touch in color" page acts as a computerized coloring book.
"I just saw it for the first time on the iPod touch screen," Harris said. "I was speechless. It's a whole new way of viewing Kip. The children can interact with Kip as they practice their motor and reading skills. Kip has come to life."
Unfamiliar with computers and iPods, Harris had to ask for help to understand what was happening with the book. "I had to call my son to even find out how to do this and get my iTunes account," she admitted with a laugh, "which turned out to be really easy to do."
Now, Harris is "blown away."
"Going around the world like this ... that was my dream for the story," Harris said.
iKids Play and the Maggie Tales were developed by Mark Smith, of Buckingham, Pa., who observed a father in an airport calm his restless youngster by allowing the child to view CNBC.com on a SmartPhone. Smith took the idea and ran with it.
"This isn't rocket science; it's just finding something for kids to do," Smith said. "The cool thing about 'Kip the Caterpillar' is it's a story kids and moms can relate to. It's clean, simple and a wonderful place to start applying new technology and concepts to."
Just last week, Smith said, his 12-year-old son asked to borrow his iPhone to use the iKids Play paint function to draw a tic-tac-toe board on while waiting in line at a busy restaurant.

Corporate Exchange
I use my personal iphone to access my work email, calendar, contacts through microsoft exchange. My employer allows me to expense a portion of my cell phone bill each month.
Question is, can they see what apps or websites is use? If I decide to look at facebook or surf the web on my iphone, can they tell? I know they can require a password and remote swipe, but can they do anything else? As far as I can tell, I don't think anything was installed. Is there anyway to tell if there was? Thanks for the help |

If they use a MDM they can. If you access company stuff they can require whatever they want.

If you have something like this, then you have an MDM installed. If not, you don't have an MDM. Even if there IS an MDM, that doesn't necessarily mean they're looking at everything you do. It all depends on what policies they have running on your phone. On the other hand, even if there is no MDM, a business CAN still see what you're doing with your iPhone whenever it's on a corporate network (like in-office WiFi or connected through a VPN).
If you're not a clairvoyant, then you shouldn't be speaking for a dead guy. I'm here to talk about Apple stuff, and related tech stuff. Your political beliefs? I really couldn't care less about. |

The above is true. The main reason Companies do this is not to control what you view because many times its a personal iPhone used to access Corporate info. They do this in the event your iPhone gets stolen or you quit the company they can wipe your iPhone clean or control access to its internal network.

"'Brother Tied' -- the first film I made that no one saw -- was about brothers," he explained about his affinity for the familial subject. " 'Blue Valentine' was about husbands and wives, and this, ['Pines'] is about fathers and sons."
Starring Ryan Gosling alongside Bradley Cooper, Ray Liotta, Dane Dehaan, Emory Cohen, Eva Mendes and many more, the sprawling, three-part 'Pines' is unconventional and epic. At two hours and twenty minutes long, the picture focuses on lineage, legacy and the sins that are passed down from generation to generation.
"Families are full of secrets," Cianfrance said of the appeal of his subject matter. "Their stories are intimate places where you can really get to know people and get to see people with their masks off." With a second child on the way, Cianfrance said the film was inspired about his own personal concerns and distresses about becoming a dad once more.
"It was born out of my own fears and anxiety about becoming a father again," he admitted of his latest film. "I was reading a lot of Jack London in 2007 and I was thinking a lot about the calling down of my ancestors. In [Jack London's] 'Call of the Wild' when the domesticated dog goes out at night and he cries in the middle of the night and he feels the pain and the hunger and the starvation from his ancestors..." he explained. "And it's the same call [in this story]."
Intense and wiry, resembling Ryan Gosling's older brother with a little less hair up top, Cianfrance said he drew from the legacy in his own family and the sometimes often unproductive "fire" that was inside his grandfather, father and himself.
"The fire that I feel inside of me that helps me do things, like make movies, but it also destroys things in my life," he said. "I was thinking about how far back that goes and about my unborn child and how he was going to come into this world clean and I just didn't want him to have that fire." You can read the rest of our conversation below. "A Place Beyond The Pines" comes out TBD in 2013 via Focus Features [beware some hints towards spoilers in the film on the second page].
So with 'Pines' was it a conscious decision to do something on a bigger scale than Blue Valentine"?
Yeah absolutely. At the same time there's things that are similar between this and "Blue Valentine." "Blue Valentine" was one moment kind of under a microscope whereas this is a film about legacy, it's a film that just has a larger canvas but you know it's equally as personal of a film as "Blue Valentine" was. I wanted to make a film about legacy in that way. About the passing on of the torch through family.
It's a very expansive story. Can you talk about how you decided who to hone in on, because it could have kept on going.
Yeah, you could keep passing it on. We used to joke in the editing room when the old man sells him the motorcycle like, 'Let's start with the old man now.' But that triptych idea came twenty years ago and I was in film school and I saw [Abel Gance's] "Napoleon." I was just like 'I've got to make a triptych one day' and I had all of these ideas.
I went to a very formalist film school and studied under Stan Brakhage and Phil Solomon so I had this idea of making a triptych for twenty years, I just didn't know what to do, what to tell. And then in film school also I saw "Psycho," which I had only seen the shower scene when I was 19 years old, but I had no idea that you spent forty five minutes with [Janet Leigh] before she went in that shower. I just had that experience watching "Psycho" of what Hitchcock must have wanted me to have and it just blew my mind.
Then I had this deep feeling of needing to tell something about legacy in my own life and it just found its way into this movie.
There's also the legacy of violence in the film.
In terms of what happens in the movie, in terms of also dealing with feelings of gun violence, movies and actually dealing with reverberations of death, the aftermath of that -- to deal with death in a real way, in a linear way. There's some detractors of the script. Five years ago I remember them saying, 'Have you seen 'Babel'? What did you think about intercutting this?' I loved "Babel," you know, and I love it. But I've also seen it and this is a story about lineage and I think it needs to be linear and...having an experience in a movie theater where you actually experience that [twist] or whatever. I actually don't think it ruins the movie to know about it, you know?
Karen | October 17, 2012 7:12 PM
I was lucky enough to be cast an an extra in the funeral scene. It was the most amazing experience.....Seeing Derek work, watching Bradley Cooper totally get into the moment when he was talking about his father.....just so cool. You could tell how passionate Derek is about his work. I absolutely cannot wait to see the film and we are hoping for a special premier at the Proctor's Theatre in Schenectady, NY! Seeing the actors and crew spent so much time in Schenectady, it would be really special for us locals for them to attend, as well. How fun !

Va.-based Hampton Roads Transit's (HRT) The Tide light rail system hit more than 30,000 customers on its first full day of service, shattering expectations for the new light rail system, according to the agency.
The Tide opened to the public on Friday to long lines of excited patrons who arrived at stations one-half hour before the 6 a.m. start of service. Long lines at many stations persisted throughout the day as customers waited for a chance to ride Virginia's first light rail line.
HRT estimated The Tide will have about 2,900 boardings on an average weekday. While opening days typically generate strong demand among the curious, the number of people who rode the Tide surprised even officials at HRT.
"What a terrific start to light rail in Virginia," said President/CEO Philip Shucet. "I could not be prouder of the men and women who worked so hard and for so long to bring this project to completion. I know the entire region appreciates the wonderful effort that brought light rail to Norfolk."
No system troubles were reported while trains ran at capacity for much of the day and into the evening. HRT began the day with six trains in service. As demand intensified, two more trains were added to ease the load. Buses were also pressed into service to provide special connections for those who could not wait long in line, or could not find a seat on the train.
The starter line extends from the Eastern Virginia Medical Center complex, through downtown east to the Norfolk-Virginia Beach border at Newtown Road. Eighteen bus routes will provide service to six of the 11 Tide stations.
Following The Tide's success over the weekend, HRT officials announced the service would remain free until August 29.
