Big LeakyMug Announcement At Last!Prophecy 2007
The LeakyMug is back and this time it's with the announcement that most of you guys sorta, kinda, totally knew was coming. We'll be doing a live LeakyMug at the Prophecy Harry Potter convention in Toronto, Canada on August 3, 2007! And this one's a pajama party, starting at midnight on Friday night. (So, technically Saturday. Yeah, you're confused, so are we. Don't worry, we'll find each other.)
We've recorded a special LeakyMug to talk about and celebrate this announcement, so click here to get it on iTunes, and click here for a direct download. Enjoy! Please also keep in mind that this was recorded WELL before we knew which day DH was set to be released - so it's a tiny bit outdated. Sorry. Hah. The live show is going to be a whole mess'a post-DH talk.

The public rooms, and our cabin, were about what we expected after studying the brochures for nearly a year. Our cabin looked just like the picture. We have plenty of space for hanging clothes and don't mind having shelves instead of drawer space for folded items. We would have appreciated, though, a reading lamp near the sofa. We selected a Princess Grill cabin specifically because of the separation between the sleeping and sitting areas, but the lack of adequate lighting made the sitting area space virtually unusable. Having two television screens seemed like a great feature, too, until we discovered that we couldn't adjust the viewing angle of the high-tech screen. The screen in the sitting area was positioned so poorly that we couldn't watch anything on it without standing up in front of the screen.
And I'll never understand the meal planning in the Lido buffet. Today's choice was touted as "Mexican" but whoever planned - and cooked - the meal has obviously never been even close to Mexico. The pork roast was tasty but was served dry and carved amateurishly with the grain, making it stringy and all but inedible. Anyone who's eaten at even the worst Mexican restaurant knows that rice and beans are never served mixed together, nor would you ever see a kidney bean in Mexican cuisine. There wasn't a tortilla in sight. The vegetable choice was the inevitable frozen cauliflower-broccoli-carrot medley, English-style broiled tomatoes, artichoke bottoms sauteed with mushrooms in olive oil, and Cajun-spiced potatoes... accompanied by Minestrone soup! What are you people thinking???
I chuckled the first time I heard some loyal Cunarders refer to the Lido as "the smash and grab" but I understand better now after having tried to enjoy a decent meal there. The incongruous menus, coupled with the dreadful traffic flow mentioned by other reviewers, and the general tendency for a certain group of passengers to push into queues as though they haven't seen food in weeks makes the Lido dining experience all but unbearable.
Despite all of this, we've enjoyed our World Cruise. The Cunard experience wasn't quite what we expected, but the ship is beautiful to look at and very comfortable. Our cabin steward is outstanding and anticipates our every need... always with a smile. But did we get $1,000 a day worth of value? I think not. We'll think twice before booking with Cunard again.

If you have any questions, reach me by e-mail (tylers at stanford).
About meMy dissertation research is on language and emotion, but my interests are fairly broad. The main other ones are: (i) the role of language in human-technology interactions, (ii) documenting/classifying endangered African languages, (iii) sociolinguistic style, and (iv) probabilistic syntax and experimental methodology.
Interface designPeople interact with an interface through language (the button labels, the taxonomies, the instructions, the errors, the confirmations, etc), and linguistics is well-suited to tell us how language choices affect intelligibility and desirability.
- WordNet, a super-thesaurus
- Good thoughts on readability
- Some basics about language testing
- Some other references and resources
Here's a presentation I gave to Microsoft about linguistic design.

Updated at 6:15 p.m. ET on Sunday, July 31
The Bengals suffered one of the biggest losses in free agency when CB Johnathan Joseph signed with Houston, but they added an experienced replacement for Joseph when they reached a deal with former 49er Nate Clements on July 30. The move for Clements was one of several additions early in free agency that addressed needs for Cincinnati. The Bengals agreed with RB Cedric Benson, their leading rusher the last three seasons, on a one-year deal on July 31. Former Raiders OLB Thomas Howard adds speed and experience to the LB corps with projected weak-side starter Keith Rivers coming off wrist surgery. Howard defends the pass well and has three seasons with 95 tackles or more to his credit. Another former Raider, Bruce Gradkowski, figures as a likely backup to rookie QB Andy Dalton, the favorite to replace Carson Palmer. Gradkowski is also a solid spot starter.

Obama Trounces McCain. McCain trounces Hillar
Election canceled Obama and Dean rejoice...
Obama Trounces McCain. McCain trounces Hillar
Election canceled Obama and Dean rejoice...
Yes Hussein Obama raised muslim with a money trail from Saddam to Auchi to Rezko to Obama is a MASSIVE GAMBLE.
Almost a sure thing in the wrong direction...
were you alive in 1992?
I think next year they should change the rules as follows
Phase I: Just as it is now but super delegates don't vote
Need the same total which is very hard to get in a close race
Phase II: Delegates are counted as winner takes all super delegates don't count need same total.
Makes a possible fair tie breaker
Phase III: Just as it is now with super delegates
Party breaks any final tie
Kos and Dean don't want to count Florida's voters at all in this election
That may work for a progressive party or some other BS without DEMOCRACY but I am a DEMOCRAT and that BS needs to end whether netroots likes it netroots doesn't like it.
What about the will of the people are you guys so against?
"This individual trolls here and at Daily kos, and uses highly divisive rhetoric"
highly devisive rhetoric at DailyKos now thats a first
So True So true
"I am confident I will get her votes if I'm the nominee," Obama stressed. "It's not clear she would get the votes I got if she were the nominee."
That coupled with the Michelle Obama remark taken in the context of a rabid Obama crew attacking Hillary that he choose not to stop.
Its done.
McCain gets my vote if BHO is the candidate. His quote convinced me.
I can't find it but after the Lamont thing Kos was asked what king he had made to justify the kingmaker label on national TV and he said that they had been involved in getting Obama elected to the senate.
I mean myself.
Obama inspired me to support McCain.
He was willing to play don't support Hillary if I lose so I am willing to play it back.
Its about the soul of the party now...not just this cycle
Muslim as per his sister. Why are you all so gung ho to deny that a child in a Muslim country born to a Muslim father raised by a muslim father ends up being muslim?
His sister said it for pete sake
Ah so we are getting to the heart of the matter...
If the MAJORITY doesn't know who dailykos is and dailykos CREATED OBAMA as a national candidate....
That makes it a LOBBY of a small group of people aka "Progressives" who are paying money to super delegates and trying to knock off candidates like Lieberman etc.
Basically except for ideological issues its a LOBBY of a small group of people with enforcers that threaten action if anyone votes against this bill or that bill etc.
How would you view this differently if it was the freemasons doing this?
Would you have no issue with it?

Marty Brennaman has been a Cincinnati Reds broadcaster since 1974, one of the longest-running local radio voices in the game. His son Thom, who started his broadcast career as a weekend TV sportscaster in Cincinnati, worked games for the Cubs and Diamondbacks before joining the Reds TV broadcast team four years ago.
It's a nice family story, only it's not. In recent years, Marty has become much more strident in his criticisms of Reds opponents and their fan bases, not to mention other controversial remarks, such as the time in 2007 that he compared a Reds road trip to the Bataan Death March of World War II. He later apologized for that.
The next year, when the Reds were in Wrigley Field in Chicago for an early-season game on April 17, 2008, multiple baseballs were thrown on the field after an Adam Dunn home run. Brennaman's comments were incendiary:
"This is the kind of thing, quite honestly, right now, that makes you want to see the Chicago Cubs team lose. Among all baseball fans, and I can't attest to the Yankees or Red Sox, because we don't see them with any degree of regularity unless it's inter-league play, but far and away the most obnoxious fans in baseball, in this league, are those who follow this team right here. Throwing 15 or 18 balls onto the field, there's absolutely no excuse for that, and that is so typical of Chicago Cubs fans. It's unbelievable."
"You simply root against 'em. Ya'know, I've said all winter they talked about this team winning the division, and my comment is they won't win it, because at the end of the day, they still are the Chicago Cubs, and they will figure out a way to screw this whole thing up."
Brennaman never apologized, and the Cubs, in fact, did win the NL Central that year.
Apparently wanting to be an equal-opportunity offender, Brennaman earlier this year bashed Pittsburgh Pirates management and now, has Cardinals manager Tony La Russa on his bad side after the Reds swept the Cardinals in their series this past weekend to move into first place. The Reds and Cardinals have become bitter rivals in the last couple of years, and the Cardinals had some complaints about the condition of the mound in Cincinnati, as well as other comments about the smoke fired off after Reds home runs at Great American Ball Park. Brennaman couldn't stay quiet:
On Monday, Brennaman called Carpenter a "whiner and excuse-maker" on the air. He also referred to Duncan as "infantile." Duncan was among those on the Cardinals bench yelling at Cordero during the game.
Brennaman said that the Cardinals "might be the most disliked team in baseball."
That didn't sit well with La Russa:
"He earned the right to get into the Hall of Fame," La Russa said. "And now he ought to keep earning that respect instead of abusing it."
I have no problems with local radio voices being "homers". They are, after all, speaking to a large audience of rabid fans of the local team. But I have never heard any local broadcaster spend as much time slamming opposing teams and fans of opposing teams as Marty Brennaman. If there's a poster child these days for "Get off my lawn!", the nearly 69-year-old Brennaman is the guy. The Reds ought to ask him to retire before he says something for which an apology won't suffice.

Diet Food Companies Clash over SLIM-FAST and SLIMFUL Trademarks
Orange County - Unilever NV and International IP Holdings, LLC are in a trademark war, debating whether International IP Holdings' SLIMFUL trademark used in relation to diet foods infringes Unilever's SLIM-FAST trademark.
On March 18th, International IP Holdings filed a lawsuit against Unilever subsidiary Conopco, Inc. in Michigan federal court seeking a declaratory judgment that Conopco has no grounds to preclude it from using the SLIMFUL trademark.
"Conopco does not own a trademark registration for the term 'Slimful,' it has never used the term as a trademark to identify the source of any product, and the term 'Slimful' does not appear anywhere on Conopco's products," Internationbal IP Holdings' complaint said.
International IP Holdings claimed that Conopco gave it notice in mid-February that the Slimful product packaging infringed the Conopco's Slim-Fast meal replacement trademarks and trade dress. International IP Holdings argued that its packaging did not infringe Conopco's trade dress, as it had used significantly more yellow than red to distinguish its product from Slim-Fast. International IP Holdings also claimed that its packaging has other features, such as the typeface and artwork, that are significantly different from what is used on the Slim-Fast bars.
The day after International IP Holdings filed its complaint for declaratory relief, Unilever fired back by filing a lawsuit in New York federal court, claiming that the Slimful products infringe its trademarks and trade dress.
Unilever said in its complaint that Slimful's packaging uses "simulations, confusingly similar variations, or colorable imitations" of the Slim-Fast packaging and that the company has blatantly copied the Slim-Fast trade dress.
Unilever also claims that International IP Holdings filed an application for SLIMFUL even though it had knowledge of the SLIM-FAST trademark and the fact that it has been in use since 1977 on billions of dollars worth of meal replacements and other diet products. Unilever also alleged that International IP Holdings has made false and misleading claims about its own products.
International IP Holdings responded to Unilever's lawsuit on Thursday with a motion to dismiss, claiming that it had filed its claim in Michigan first and that the case was not linked to New York and therefore the New York federal court does not have jurisdiction over the matter.

Ten-year-old Roberto had failing grades and discipline problems in his Cleveland, Ohio, school, but his mother had high hopes for him — a quality education that met his particular needs and would help him to be college and career ready. Fortunately for her and Roberto, an expanding network of charter schools in Cleveland, Breakthrough Charter Schools, offered a nurturing environment in its Near West Intergenerational School, one of five new charter schools resulting from an OII Charter Schools Program (CSP) grant awarded to Breakthrough Charter Schools. Roberto's story is the subject of a CBS News report that aired in late May.
National Charter Schools Week Proclaimed by President Obama
Charter schools play an important role in America meeting its obligation to "equip all our students with the education and skills that put them on the path to a bright future," according to President Barack Obama, in proclaiming May 5 through 11 as National Charter Schools Week, 2013.
America's approximately 6,000 charter schools are "learning laboratories [that] give educators the chance to try new models and methods that can encourage excellence in the classroom and prepare more of our children for college and careers," according to President Obama.

Being Proactive Instead of Reactive
Recently my buddies Ryan and Keith started up a new blog called Business is in the Details. It's all about how you can make your business better by providing better customer service, targeting your ads, and general nuggets of goodness that people simply forget to do over time. It didn't take me long to spot a problem with a business that was worthy of a blog post.
At a location I work at, there is cable internet. The cable was physically pulled away from the pole by an oversized truck. In the same parking lot about 50 yards away is a company that contracts service work for our cable provider. Having that line working is mission critical, so instead of calling the cable company, I simply walk down to the cable contractor's office.
I was met at the front by your typical middle aged manager type personality. I told him our internet was down because our cable is physically down. He said, "Yeah, I saw that coming in to work. Are you the one who did it?". I told him of course not, but I need that line up as we're losing customers and money without it. "Sure, we'll fix it as soon as you call the cable company and make a service ticket."
My blood pressure instantly jumped. In my younger years my knee jerk reaction would have gotten the better of me and I would have no doubt insulted the man by explaining to him the amount of idiocy involved to come up with just a statement. Instead age and wisdom won out and I just laughed a little and walked out.
Let's examine what's wrong here:
- A company that exists to fix another companies infrastructure knows about a problem before the customer and does nothing to fix it.
- Company management wanted to find someone to blame.
- Will not take action without a work order from cable company.
So after spending 45 minutes on the phone, getting transferred to multiple states (and most likely countries), I managed to convince someone that I did not need to reboot my router as I was holding the downed cable line in my hand. I was assured the problem would be fixed within 3 days. Actual repair time was completed around 1pm, but that's over half the work day. The work was of course done by the same people I visited that morning – the same company that shares my parking lot.
Here's what should have happened:
- The contract company sees the line down and repairs it.
- Contract company then places the service call or asks me to place the service call.
- Ticket get generated and instantly closed. Paperwork handled, everyone gets paid.
- I don't lose a day of work and my blood pressure remains stable.
Is it so odd to expect people will proactively do something without being told first it needs to be done? Apparently yes. Sounds odd, but if you stop and think about it – happens all the time.
Entrepreneurs in general are proactive people. So proactive in fact that most CEOs do not come with an off button, but that's for another post. You need reactive people to carry out your vision, they're called employees. Most people on the planet only do something as a response to someone else. The problem is management. The job description is to balance being proactive with being reactive. An owner of a company hires management to proactively take care of certain things so the work load gets distributed. Management reacts to the people he manages and the customers that are not happy with those people.
The conclusion – my poor customer service experience is a direct result of poor management of a company that represents a bigger company. Disclaimer: I didn't like the big cable company before but my dislike has grown because of the actions of a company they employee.
Taking a step back: Reasons they didn't just "fix" the problem on sight
- Against company policy. Too much of a liability to climb a pole without a work order.
- We might not get paid. The big cable could have in their infinite wisdom passed the work order to another company 3 counties over.
- Generally too much effort or just a no care attitude.
Whatever the reason, the damage is done and while my patronage will not make or break them, I'm often in a position of decision making when it comes to which internet carrier gets installed. They will certainly lose a few future customers I could have sent their way.

If you've following our Nancy Naeve Brown on the morning show, you know she is taking part in mission nutrition; a 6 week health and wellness program put on the dietitians at the Avera Heart Hospital. Each week they hit on different topics with different goals. This week Nikki Ver Steeg teaches Nancy about portion control.
Week 5 of the Avera Heart Hospital's Mission Nutrition is focusing on portion control. It's an important piece of the puzzle that is key in losing extra pounds. Registered Dietitian Nikki Ver Steeg says a lot of times when we eat the right things we tend to over eat to look at how big your portions are, but know what they should be.
Nikki Ver Steeg says, "I want you to pay attention and learn how to do it yourself without having to rely on measuring cups and weighing and all that stuff. If you need to do that at the beginning that's just fine but progress to training your eyeball so you know it's appropriately sized for you. That way you can blend in with everyone else, you don't have to answer questions; no one wants to be set apart when they are making healthy changes."
So to help with "eyeballing" portions think about everyday items. A serving of pasta is supposed to be no bigger than a light bulb.
Nikki says, "Let's talk about your Spaghetti meal. We tend to put a lot of noodles on our plate and put red sauce and a little bit of meat and garlic bread on the side. Focus on a smaller portion of pasta and focus on a lean protein in sauce and you are able to be full on less pasta."
Salad dressing can be a problem if you aren't careful. so many of us douse our healthy salad, drowning out the leafy benefits. Nikki suggests getting your dressing on the side. Serving size is less that 2 tablespoons which is less than half of the soufflé cup so instead of dumping all of it drizzle it on top and then toss it together.
Nikki says, "Balance your meal out so you are able to stick with portion sizes more. What happens if you go a little overboard it's because we are only having one thing. For example pizza, a lot of time we don't eat anything with pizza and so our portion size is out of control but if you put it with a little salad the combined meal is more appropriate."
A serving of almonds, which is a great option for a snack, should be a handful. Make sure you actually do a serving size instead of just taking them out of the bag because then you don't know how many you ate. A slice of cake a deck of cards and a piece of fruit the size of a baseball. A brownie or piece of chocolate should be the size of dental floss.
Too much of a good thing is still too much when you are on a mission for nutrition.
Watch Those Portions:
Right sizing your portions is key to losing extra pounds. To lower the need for measuring, we suggest using the following examples as ways to "eyeball" portions.
1 cup of cereal flakes = baseball 1 pancake = compact disc
½ cup of cooked rice = light bulb ½ cup cooked pasta = light bulb
1 slice of bread = cassette tape 1 bagel = 6 oz can of tuna
3 cups popcorn = 3 baseballs 1½ oz cheese = 3 stacked dice
1 cup yogurt = baseball ½ cup frozen yogurt = light bulb
½ cup ice cream = light bulb 1 tbsp butter or spread = poker chip
1 tbsp salad dressing = poker chip 1 tbsp mayonnaise = poker chip

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The wind was blowing so hard when Jonathan Byrd woke up in his beachfront home that he worried about having to play Riviera. It worked out fine Thursday in the Northern Trust Open, where he shot a 3-under 68 to take the lead among early starters.
Byrd made five birdies in his round of 3-under 68. He was one shot ahead of Brendan Steele and K.J. Choi. Luke Donald, the No. 1 player in the world, opened with a 70. Among the 72 players who had early tee times, only seven broke par.
If no one from the afternoon catches Byrd, it will be the highest score to lead after the opening round at Riviera since 1984.
Pebble Beach winner Phil Mickelson was among the late starters.

This week's trackback Thursday features The Kingdom of God by Martyn Lloyd-Jones (released in trade paperback this month).
A reminder of how Trackback Thursday works: Simply link to the blog post from your blog, leave a comment on Crossway's Facebook Page, or re-tweet Trackback Thursday on Twitter @Crosswaybooks. Winners are picked on Friday morning.
A Kingdom Which Cannot Be Moved
(Excerpt from The Kingdom of God, pp 219).
And what in the next world? Well it is glory! It is to be with Him, it is to be like Him, it is to reign with Christ as kings and priests. "Know ye not," says Paul to the Corinthians, "that the saints shall judge the world . . . Know ye not that we shall judge angels?" (1 Cor 6:2-3). Christian people do you realise these things? Nobody else realises them. Men and women are in the world today because they know nothing about the glory that is coming. City life! "What a thrill I get out of it!" the say, "the kicks, the enjoyment!" But they will soon by lying on their deathbed and they will not be able to enjoy it; they will be leaving it, and they will have nothing, it will all be shaken, and they will be shaken. And here is the glory that they have refused. That is why men and women are not Christians; they know nothing about this glory; being with God and being with Christ and reigning with Him, and triumphing with Him and enjoying Him to all eternity. The blessings of the Kingdom!
And then, there is the safety and the security of the kingdom: "We receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved." Everything else can be removed; there is nothing stable in this world. People used to think the British Empire was stable—how much of it is left? Those everlasting mountains—stable? Of course they are not. They are moving the whole time and an earthquake can wreck them, a bomb can smash them. Nothing is stable. The whole world will be convulsed in a final cataclysm, nothing will remain. But here is a kingdom which cannot be moved.

In general, older people can take opioids safely. But an opioid isn't the first choice for treating chronic joint pain caused by osteoarthritis. Instead, acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) is recommended as the first line medication for older people with mild to moderate arthritis pain.
Opioids have risks that may be particularly serious for older people, including:
Acetaminophen is effective and generally safe, although high doses can cause serious liver damage. The adult dose of over-the-counter acetaminophen is 325 to 660 milligrams (mg) every four to six hours, never to exceed a total of 4 grams within any 24-hour period. Because older people metabolize drugs less efficiently, they tend to do well with doses at the low end of that range. If you drink heavily, have alcohol-related liver damage or have a history of any kind of liver disease, don't exceed a total of 2 grams of acetaminophen in a day.
Also, if you're taking a prescription pain medication that contains acetaminophen and an opioid, don't take any additional over-the-counter acetaminophen. Examples of these combination drugs include codeine and acetaminophen (Tylenol with codeine), oxycodone and acetaminophen (Percocet, Roxicet), and hydrocodone and acetaminophen (Vicodin, Norco).
Older people should avoid nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others) and naproxen (Aleve, others), for osteoarthritis pain. Recent studies have found high rates of bleeding in the digestive tract among older people on NSAID therapy. Worsening of heart failure and increased risk of kidney disease are other problems linked to chronic NSAID use in older people.

So it's no surprise that his big sister's room is equally (if not more!) awesome. Using a mix of vintage and contemporary furnishings and accessories, Piper's sophisticated room has a whimsical feel that's totally kid-appropriate, but it also has a sense of glamour that will work well as she grows up. We have to admit, vintage Murano lights and Asian bedside tables, a Madeline Weinrib ikat rug, and coral tones have us feeling a bit jealous of little Piper's bedroom. Keep clicking for the oh-so-chic details. Source: Bethany Nauert Vintage Glam What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Traci enlisted the help of interior designer Tamara Honey of House of Honey to create Piper's room, which mixes contemporary elements, like the Madeline Weinrib ikat rug, with vintage elements. Piper's preference for pink was also a jumping-off point for the design. "My daughter wanted pink, of course," Traci says. "We started with a paint color [Benjamin Moore's Coral Gables] as the inspiration and the rest was history."

"We put one in the center of the room as a pendant and two over each of the coral nightstands. They remind my daughter of a merry-go-round." The tickle trunk at the foot of the bed holds Piper's dress-up clothes and costumes, while a photo of Piper's Blythe doll hangs over the bed. "Her photo was taken in front of a produce stand in Brooklyn," Traci says.

Traci's design advice for parents looking to build a similarly stylish but kid-friendly space: "Be thoughtful about the future needs of your child.

How Much Data Do You Really Need? – Terry's Tech Support
On most cellular carriers Unlimited Data has gone the way of the dinosaurs: extinct. Verizon recently announced they are phasing out the unlimited data option even for customers who are "grandfathered in" like me.
Initially I was concerned about living under a limited data cap--with the possibility of overages and additional fees--but then I endeavored to find out how much data I really used. I was surprised by the findings.

Taunton's clubbing scene over the years
2:00pm Wednesday 13th February 2013 in Taunton By Daniel Milligan
THE clubbing scene has changed dramatically over the past couple of decades and the County Gazette takes a trip down memory lane to look at Taunton's former late-night venues.
Venues such as Kingston's, the former Rileys snooker club, Night Owls at Creech Castle, Yates, which is now a Tesco Express in High Street, and Rockers Live in Bridge Street, have all fallen victim to the town's clubbing demise.
The latest victim is Bliss on East Street, leaving Taunton with only a handful of late night venues – including Okoko, Mambo, Remedies and the Market House.
Other venues to close over the years are the Ivory Club in Mary Street, The Toad at the Warehouse and Que Pasa which was situated next to Hatchers in High Street and Aura in Church Square.
Kevin Sturmey, who used to run Sturm's Sport Bar in Hammett Street until it closed in 2008, said there used to be 5,000 people clubbing in Taunton on a Saturday night.
He added: "Taunton is never going to be a Birmingham or a Bristol because it is hard to compete with those places and the big operators that have so much buying power."
According to a new poll, pubs in the South-West will be among the worst affected by minimum pricing for alcohol.
Figures released by YouGov claim that a 45p minimum price per unit will turn people away from pubs and nightclubs and 46% of more than 1,200 people polled said they will drink less in the pub.
Andy Sharman, of Somerset West Businesses Against Crime, said the last few years have been a challenging time for pubs and clubs.
He added: "It is hard to compete against the supermarkets and the cheap alcohol they can sell. The nightlife in Taunton is not what it was but it still has something to offer and the pubs and clubs are working hard to bring people back in and make it exciting.
"Businesses need to look at the experience they can offer customers and a lot of places are putting on live music. People do not have much money to spend now so you need to give them a reason to come out."

The Herald Bulletin
ANDERSON, Ind. —
Amelia Rudolf, 93, has been staying with family since July 16, when she was subjected to what Anderson Police Chief Larry Crenshaw called a "horrific and unimaginable" attack in her own home.
"I would like to go back because it's the house that my husband built for me and my family," Rudolf said Monday afternoon during a news conference at the Anderson Police Department. "And I've been happy there all my life until just now."
But Rudolf's not sure that she'll be able to go back after a man broke into her home that night in July and sexually assaulted her. Maybe after some time has passed, she said.
Her alleged attacker, Iquise V. Taylor, 17, was arrested Friday and, already incarcerated at the Madison County Youth Center, waived onto adult court. Taylor was formally charged Monday with rape, criminal confinement, strangulation, burglary and violation of probation.
The attack happened after midnight on July 16 in Rudolf's home, in the 3600 block of Hamilton Place in the Polish Acre neighborhood.
According to the probable cause affidavit, Taylor kicked in Rudolf's locked back door and confined her to the bed, covering her mouth with his hand and assaulting her. Nothing was reported stolen from the home and nothing was vandalized.
A witness told police that he was on his front porch around midnight when Taylor came up to him and asked if he had a cigarette. That witness noted Taylor did not have any shoes on and was acting odd — police found a footprint on Rudolf's back door that they believed to be a barefoot print or someone wearing socks but no shoes.
Taylor, who initially denied the attack during an interview in early August, did provide a DNA sample to police that matched DNA taken from Rudolf, the affidavit said.
Her youngest daughter, Tresa Hale, said she felt "disgust" when she received a call from her brother about the attack. It was "nothing I expected in a million years," she noted as she recalled that phone conversation.
Rudolf, surrounded by her children and grandchildren Monday, was thankful to police for their quick work and to her family, who were her strength.
"I didn't think I would live long enough to see who did it," she said, "but I'm happy it turned out the way it is right now."
"Our main focus was for her to overcome this, and we're a strong family, we're a big family, and we have each other's backs," Hale said. "And she is doing wonderfully under the circumstances. I do want to say this, she's courageous, she's brave, she's strong and she is our hero. She really is our hero."
Because of her mother's strength and the Anderson Police Department's work, she said, the attacker "will be off the streets now, hopefully forever, and that's one less criminal Anderson and the world will have to worry about."
"May God help him. Judgment day will come for him," Hale said. "I don't know what's going to happen with the case, that's in the hands of the prosecutor now. I just know in my heart that when, if, he lives a life in prison, I hope it will be terrifying for him. I can't help but say that. And I know when his judgment day comes, I want him to be terrified when the devil comes to take him."
On Monday, Crenshaw said he was thankful to the community for their assistance and support — "this case has really touched their hearts" — and the work of his officers.
While Taylor, who was enrolled in Anderson Community Schools, didn't live far from Rudolf in the 3600 block of Burton Place, Crenshaw said, police haven't yet discovered a motive behind the attack. The suspect hasn't given them much to go off, he added.
Madison County Prosecutor Rodney Cummings said Taylor is no stranger to law enforcement as a juvenile offender, having been in trouble as young as age 10. As of Monday evening, Taylor had not been appointed an attorney and calls to his family were not returned.
The Herald Bulletin does not usually identify rape victims, but Rudolf identified herself at the news conference, surrounded by her family.

About the musician
Andrew Bain
Horns Principal, John Cecil Bessell Chair
Visit this artist's website: http://andrewbainhorn.com
ANDREW BAIN was appointed to the chair of Principal Horn of the Los Angeles Philharmonic by Gustavo Dudamel in May 2011.
Born and raised in Australia, Andrew comes from a family of four boys, three of whom are musicians. He was first introduced to musical instruments at age 8 when he took up the piano and began voice lessons at age 9. Three years later, he was enrolled at Brighton High School in their special music program. Soon after, he switched to the French horn because he loved the sound. Andrew ultimately received a Bachelor in Music from the Elder Conservatorium of Music at the University of Adelaide and furthered his studies with Geoff Collinson in Sydney and Hector MacDonald in Vienna. In 2003 he completed a Graduate Diploma in Chamber Music under Will Sanders in Karlsruhe, Germany.
Andrew has had the opportunity to play with some of the finest orchestras around the world. He started as Associate Principal Horn for the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra from 1997-2000. From there he went on to play with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra from 2000-2001 and 2005-2009. He also held positions with the Münchner Symphoniker from 2001-2003 and the Australian Opera & Ballet Orchestra at the Sydney Opera House from 2003-2005. From 2009 to 2012, Andrew was Principal Horn of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and from 2003-2012 was the Principal Horn of the Colorado Music Festival. Andrew is a regular soloist having performed concertos with the Melbourne Symphony and Queensland Symphony, Colorado Music Festival, Britten's Serenade with the Music in the Round Festival and Schumann's Konzertstück at the Colorado Music Festival and with the Colburn Orchestra in Los Angeles. In 2013 Andrew made his solo debut with the Los Angeles Philharmonic under Dudamel's baton.
During 2013, Andrew joined the Berlin Philharmonic as guest solo horn for performances with Sir Simon Rattle, Riccardo Chailly, and Gustavo Dudamel. These concerts can be seen at digitalconcerthall.com. Bain will return for performances with the Berlin Philharmonic in 2014.
Also in 2013, Andrew joined the faculty of the Aspen Music Festival and School and the Pacific Music Festival in Sapporo Japan, mentoring some of the world's most talented young horn players.
The 2000 winner of the Marten Bequest Scholarship, Andrew has also performed with the Australian World Orchestra; the Saarbrüken Radio Symphony; the Bavarian State Opera; the Malaysian Philharmonic; the Australian Chamber Orchestra; the Melbourne Chamber Orchestra; and the Sydney, West Australian, and Tasmanian symphony orchestras. Andrew can be heard on the soundtracks of numerous recordings and films, including Frozen, Anchorman 2, Once Upon a Time, The Wolverine, Pacific Rim, Smurfs 2, RIPD, Australian Idol, Happy Feet, Australia, and Anacondas.
A great lover of chamber music, Andrew has collaborated with such artists as Martha Argerich, World Brass, and New Zealand Symphony Brass. He has performed in numerous festivals in Australia and the U.S. He was the guest artist for the 2012 Chamber Music Festival of Lexington, directed by LA Phil Associate Concertmaster Nathan Cole. He is a founding member of the New Sydney Wind Quintet (2004-2010) and has toured with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra throughout Europe.
In addition to performing, Andrew is extremely passionate about teaching. He is committed to the education of young musicians and proud to be the current Horn Professor at the Colburn School Conservatory. Prior to Colburn, Andrew held several teaching positions including Lecturer in Horn at the Australian National Academy of Music, University of Melbourne, the Tasmanian Conservatorium of Music, and the Sydney Conservatorium. He has also given master classes and lectures at the Royal College of Music London, Guildhall School London, Manhattan School of Music, the Elder Conservatorium, the Queensland Conservatorium, the Shanghai Conservatory, and the Colorado Music Festival.
In addition to music, Andrew loves traveling, cooking and exploring Los Angeles with his beautiful wife, Rupal. If he's not working, you will most likely find him on the golf course trying to improve his handicap.

Hello to everyone!
Hey there! My name is Daniel and I live in Sykesville, Maryland. I purchased a 1951 Cub at an auction last year and had planned to do some farm work with it, but things have changed rather suddenly this year and now I'm returning to school. A neighbor suggested that this might be a good place to find the Cub and all the toys that goe with it a new home so I'll be posting over in the sale section. Thanks for your viewing time!! Daniel

An imposing six foot tall
To my five foot none
Eyes simpering blue
Connecting sad green ones
Build broad and manly
My own stature slight
Dark hair on chest
A favoured delight
Grin warm and tempting
Mine open and generous
Clear what on my mind?
This could be dangerous
Wore designer suit
Brogues choice of shoe
Pure cotton shirt
In mixed shades of blue
He appreciated class
Complimented my attire
Tailored dress, stiletto heels
Could he sense my desire?
His mane dark and smooth
Mine blond and wiry
Appeared affable
Hint of temper fiery?
Cut short and neat
Fashioned for youth
Same age as me
Perhaps a bit uncouth?
Fingers clean and manicured
His arms were toned and strong
An easy-going manner
We quickly got along
Politely left his quote
Which I agreed was fair
But my boss disputed
The roof needed repair
Brought me flowers anyway
Must have cost a bob or two
As recommended other
I was impressed with his thank you
It was eight months later
Before chief decided
Time for restoration
And we re-collided
Another few days passed
Presented with the bill
And wasn't long before
Were sharing mutual skill

The NYPD searched for an escaped prisoner in upper Manhattan both above and below ground in the area of St. Nicholas Ave. and W. 145th St.
Service had been suspended on four subway lines due to the investigation. Police closed the 145 St. station for over an hour as they searched for the prisoner.
Cops eventually caught Vincens Vuktilaj, 18, in the subway. He is suspected of a string of chain thefts in April.
Service on the A, C, B and D lines was restored at about 1 p.m.
Straphangers were advised to 1 train or take the M10, M11 and M7 bus service.

Last spring, as I strolled back to my office after enjoying a Barney's sandwich, I encountered the familiar sight of a campus tour guide introducing Columbia to a group of nervous high school students. "That is the mathematics building," she said, "Nothing terribly interesting happens there except, of course, the bartending classes in the evening."
My immediate instinct was to leap into action and deliver an impromptu lecture on the beauty of mathematics and extol the virtues of the intellectual delights that awaited them in the math department. I have spent most of my adult life studying and inventing mathematics at various universities, and to me, the subject is a living, breathing being that inhabits the world's deepest mysteries and most profound secrets. But to many, it is a collection of dusty and arcane textbooks studied by equally dusty and arcane university professors whose job is primarily to weed out engineering majors.
There are some good reasons for people to have a bad attitude about math. For instance, learning math really is hard, at its core, math is humanity's attempt to clarify the imprecise and counterintuitive aspects of our descriptions of the world, so the subject wouldn't need to exist if it came naturally to us. But I think that math's severe PR problems are caused primarily by several persistent myths:
Myth: Math is dead.
Reality: The foundations of just about every area of mathematics were overhauled at some point in the 20th century, and a variety of new areas (such as topology, noncommutative geometry, and arithmetic algebraic geometry) sprang into existence. In the past 20 years alone, mathematicians have solved some of our oldest and most difficult problems.
Myth: Math is useless.
Reality: Math pays you back for your investment. Most people can largely avoid math for most of their lives if they choose, but those who take the time to learn the subject properly see patterns and find solutions that others miss. The PageRank algorithm, RSA encryption, and fractal image compression are but a few technological achievements that began as purely abstract mathematics.
Myth: Math isn't for creative people.
Reality: Understanding and appreciating mathematics is much more a matter of asking the right questions and noticing unexpected connections between seemingly different ideas than doing rote calculations. Mathematicians do not consider a problem completely solved until the most elegant solution has been found; in the words of the great G.H. Hardy, "There is no permanent place in the world for ugly mathematics."
So as the current semester begins and your college career progresses, try to interact with mathematics in a new and better way. Use the creative part of your brain to question assumptions and seek new connections instead of just memorizing calculations. Think of new problems to which your current techniques might be relevant, instead of focusing on the narrow range of problems that you were taught to solve. Ask your math professors what they are working on and how it fits into the developing history of mathematics, and try to relate their answers to your own interests. Thinking like a mathematician is hard and the payoff is not always obvious at the outset, but you will be astonished by how it helps you grow as a student and as a person.
I didn't stand up for mathematics in front of that campus tour last spring, but it did make me think about why I do mathematics and how it can help make people's lives better. In the end you will have to find your own reasons, but I'll be in my office if you need help.
The author is an assistant professor of mathematics.
Excellent article. I've found mathematics incredibly inspiring ever since the coursera.org course on Machine Learning, & subsequently YouTube channels like www.youtube.com/user/numberphile -- if anyone else has recommendations on their favorite math inspiration please share them.

New Bromley service to support children in care calls for volunteers
Updated 11:56am Tuesday 26th February 2013 in News By Patrick Grafton-Green, reporter
A NEW independent visitor volunteer service is on the look out for local volunteers to help children in care in Bromley.
The service, run by charity Family Action, was launched on February 1, and hopes make a difference to the lives of some of the most vulnerable young people in the borough.
The latest Department for Education figures suggest there were 265 looked-after children in Bromley in 2011.
Volunteers will befriend and support the children by taking them out and doing activities together.
Joanne Turberville, Family Action's Independent Visitors Manager said: "Children in care have a difficult lot in life.
"That's why it's important that they are fully supported to achieve their potential.
"We are looking for volunteers who can help us make a real difference to the lives of these vulnerable young people."
Cllr Robert Evans, Executive Member for Care Services said: "The friendly mentoring approach (of volunteers) can help looked-after children to build trusting and stable relationships with people around them.
"In addition, volunteers themselves gain a great deal from dedicating some of their spare time in this very rewarding way."
Email firstname.lastname@example.com for an application form and more information on volunteering.

Lebanon —
The body found floating in a pond Tuesday morning at the Boone County Conservation Club, 701 E. Noble St., Lebanon, has been identified as Sean L. Hobbs. Originally from Essie, Ky., he was staying with friends in the area since the middle of May.
An autopsy was performed at Witham Memorial Hospital, but no cause of death determined. Lebanon Police information officer Lt. Brent Wheat said the victim was in the water fewer than 72 hours. A toxicology test has been ordered, and results will take four to six weeks.
Searched the pond, which is 25 to 30 feet deep, until lat afternoon.
Ed Johnson and another man found the victim shortly after 11 a.m.
"We were standing by there, talking about cutting weeds for a fishing area," Johnson said as police vehicles and fire trucks drove past a gate to the scene.
"I've seen my share of bodies," said Johnson, who won three Purple Hearts in Vietnam and worked for a local towing service for several years.
The victim appeared to be a man in his mid-20s to mid 30s, Johnson said. "I figured, even it is was a dummy, they say 'see something, say something,'" he said. So Johnson called 9-1-1.
Officers from Lebanon Police Department sealed the area. Lebanon Fire Department's water rescue unit was attempting to recover the body. Other units in kayaks were searching the pond and the shore line.
The three-acre pond is surrounded by a chain link fence topped with three strands of barbed wire. It is surrounded by thick woods.
Only Conservation Club members have keys to gates in the fence, Johnson said.
More details will be posted as available.

Great replacement for a factory unit

Summary: This is an excellent product and very affordable - the sound quality is excellent and the stereo unit provides many equalizer options. The unit works great in BMW 330ci Convertible (though I haven't used it yet with the top down).
The bluetooth feature / speakerphone works flawlessly and I have heard no complaints from the other end of the phone. As well, the phone syncs easily (T-Mobile G1).
I also purchased the Sony XA-120IP (iPod connector) which makes the functionality of the iPod through the stereo head unit and/or remote control very simple and safe.
Had the unit professionally installed at Geek Squad; not because the unit was complicated, but because BMW is not an easy install and I didn't want to take the chance of ruining the trim on the car.
The unit is simple enough for any idiot to figure out without ever opening the instruction book (this idiot was able too).
I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend the MEX-BT5100 by Sony. I shopped for months for a good deal and after extensive research, I came to love this unit over the compatible Pioneer and Kenwood units.

Sutton and Cheam Conservatives announce parliamentary candidate for 2015 General Election
11:06am Friday 21st December 2012 in News By Sophia Sleigh, Chief Reporter
The Sutton and Cheam Conservatives' parliamentary candidate has promised to fight "tooth and nail" to keep frontline services at St Helier Hospital.
Yesterday, the business owner and former councillor, Paul Scully, was announced as the party's prospective MP ahead of the General Election in 2015.
High on his agenda is protecting healthcare services and ensuring St Helier Hospital is put on a steady footing.
He said: "I have lived the whole of my adult life in Sutton, raising my family here. My children were both born in St Helier hospital in the very maternity unit that is earmarked to be moved to Tooting.
"I'll fight tooth and nail to keep maternity and A&E services local.
"My children have both attended Sutton schools. Being local is more than having an address in the area. I shop in the same shops, take the same trains and drive on the same roads as residents across the constituency.
"We care about the same things and if elected I will work tirelessly for residents, giving Sutton and Cheam a strong voice in Westminster to ensure the national policies help solve local problems."
His campaign priorities also include making Sutton and Cheam a thriving place for business and securing enough school places for the borough's children.

I genuinely would like to know what he has achieved as an MP, let alone what he has contributed to government.
We tried voting for the LibDems to keep the tories out last time, and look what happened. Social Democratic window dressing for an unmandated dismantling of what is left of the state from the last time they got their hands on it.
Campaigning to scrap Tuition fees prior to the Election, and then voting to increase them to up to £10,000 directly after has been Mr Burstow's most notable contribution so far. He might have been a good option once, but that ship has sailed I'm afraid.

The obvious thing everyone has said about the end of the 2012-13 NHL Lockout is that the Canadian fans will come back. Some American fans will be reticent to return, maybe some small markets won't be willing to show up or watch on television immediately. The folks north of our border, however, are in the bag. They're ride or die, watching no matter how long you take away the sport. It's their game, after all.
Well, they were right. Hockey Night in Canada returned with record numbers on Saturday night. The 7 p.m. ET game between the two worst teams in the Eastern Conference last season -- the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Montreal Canadiens -- drew a record 3.3 million viewers for that timeslot. The previous record was also Habs-Leafs back in April of 2007. Never before has a regular season game in Canada's most famous sporting timeslot drawn that many viewers. CBC claims that 9.2 million Canadians -- 27 percent of the country -- watch at least a minute of the show. Another 80,000 people streamed the game live online. Yikes.
The other games were less obscene, but no less impressive. 1.49 million viewers tuned into Hockey Night's season premiere, the 3 p.m. ET Senators-Jets game. 1.47 million watched the Ducks-Canucks game. Both were well above the typical audiences for those timeslots last season, with around 30,000 people each tuning into the live stream. Canadian hockey fans... they're in the bag.
