American School Counselor Association (ASCA) Assistant Director Eric Sparks talks about school counselors' role in academic support and standards implementation, and he shares how his organization is helping them succeed.
Students are more likely to thrive academically – as well as socially and emotionally – in schools they experience as safe and supportive. Bullies deprive students of that experience.
We must do all we can - as parents, educators, community leaders, business leaders, advocates and concerned citizens - to make it clear that we will not tolerate bullying in our public schools.

CATEGORIES Comedy, Music & Musicals, Deals, The Weinstein Co., Movies, CinematicalSo today is the day I officially feel old. Variety reports that Ice Cube has made a deal with Dimension Films for his comedy script Janky Promoters; a title that had me running to Urban Dictionary to figure out what the heck 'Janky' meant. But mid-life crisis aside, back to the real news: Cube will be producing the film along with Dimension and his partner Matt Alvarez, and will also star.
The story centers on two hip-hop promoters who are given the chance to put together an all-star show in California. When the two discover that they are in way over their heads, wackiness ensues. Bob Weinstein tells Variety, "This feels a lot like Uptown Saturday Night to me, a caper film where you have these music promoters who are slightly shady but are good enough guys that you root for them, this is going to be R-rated, and it appeals right to the core of Cube's audience." Thankfully, Cube is getting out of the kiddie flick business (at least for now) and Promoters is his first script since the Friday series finished back in 2002.
Expect to hear news of a director and casting soon. Cube and company are hoping to land some big name rappers to play themselves in the film (who could say no to the man responsible for It Was a Good Day and Guerillas in tha Mist?) Not to mention it would make compiling the soundtrack a heck of a lot easier if you had musicians in the cast. Production on Promoters is expected to begin as soon as Cube has finished promoting his work in Fred Durst's film, The Longshots, and can sort out his schedule for his planned remake of the 70's sitcom Welcome Back Kotter.

Barbara Matera, owner of the premier costume house serving the New York theatre, died on September 13 at NYU Medical Center in New York. She was 72. The cause of death was a cerebral hemorrhage, said her husband Arthur Matera.
Born Barbara Gray in Kent, England, she began her career in London with the Adelphi Players in Covent Garden, the Ballet Romberg in Stratford-on-Avon, and the Old Vic. She eventually opened her own company, Scott/Gray, Ltd. She moved to the United States in 1960, and began working in the studio of costume designer Ray Diffen. In 1968, founded Barbara Matera Ltd., with her husband. It quickly drew the patronage of top costume designers in opera, ballet, the theatre and film.
Matera provided costumes for over a hundred Broadway plays and musicals, including Follies, A Chorus Line, A Little Night Music, 42nd Street, La Cage Aux Folles, Dreamgirls, Sunday in the Park With George, Sugar Babies, Nine, City of Angels, Angels in America, Into the Woods, Grand Hotel, Crazy for You, Sunset Boulevard, and the recent revival of Annie Get Your Gun. Her films include The Great Gatsby, Death on the Nile, Something for Everyone, The Mirror Crack'd, The Age of Innocence, The Addams Family, Moonstruck, The Wiz, Ironweed, Jagged Edge, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, 101 Dalmations, and 102 Dalmations. Her opera credits include productions at the Metropolitan Opera, New York City Opera, San Francisco Opera, and Lyric Opera of Chicago, among others. For American Ballet Theatre, she created costumes for Swan Lake, Othello, The Snow Maiden, and Theme and Variations, among others. Other dance credits include productions with New York City Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, Paul Taylor Company, Feld Ballet, David Parsons, Lar Lubovitch, Houston Ballet, and many ballets by Mikhail Baryshnikov. Matera also built costumes for concerts tours, working for Michael Jackson and the Rolling Stones, including the latter's Steel Wheels and Voodoo Lounge tours. At the time of her death, she was working on the new Broadway musical, Mamma Mia!
As a designer in her own right, her credits included Petit Beins, Sinfonia Mistica, Tanspiel, Five, Baroque Variations, Sophisticated Lady, Mozart Serenade, Les Delights of the Muses, and Jazz, all for New York City Ballet, as well as David Merrick's Broadway revival of Private Lives and The Way of the World for John Housman's Acting Company. In addition, Matera worked with a number of stars on a continuing basis, including Dame Joan Sutherland, Marilyn Horne, Leontyne Price and Angela Lansbury. She also designed private clothes for Gloria Swanson, Claudette Colbert, Bette Davis, Ethel Merman, Katharine Hepburn, Lauren Bacall, Raquel Welch, Liv Ullman, Pearl Bailey, Anne Baxter, Anne Bancroft, Carol Channing, Lena Horne, Barbra Streisand, Elizabeth Taylor, and Harry Belafonte. She also executed the highly acclaimed gown worn by Hilary Rodham Clinton on the occasion of her husband's first inauguration as President; Matera and her husband were personal guests of the Clintons for the event
Her work was the subject of a 1996 exhibition at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, titled Inside and Out—The Costumes of Barbara Matera. In 1999, she received an Eddy Award from Entertainment Design magazine, which was presented to her by Angela Lansbury. Aside from her Eddy Award, she also received the Irene Sharaff Award from the Theatre Development Fund, the John Houseman Award from the Acting Company, and the Cartier Salutes New York City Ballet Award for her work on Sleeping Beauty. She was also guest of honor at the annual benefit dinner for the Columbia Green County Memorial Hospital Foundation.
Matera's passing is, in some ways, the end of an era, as he career bridges several generations of top costume designers, from her mentor the late Irene Sharaff, to the late Raoul Pene Du Bois, Patricia Zipprodt and Freddy Wittop, to elder statesman such as Tony Walton, Theoni V. Aldredge, Anthony Powell, Willa Kim, and Desmond Heeley, to contemporary names such as Ann Hould-Ward, Martin Pakledinaz, Bob Crowley, Roger Kirk, Julie Taymor, and William Ivey Long. The above credits reveal that she built costumes many of the most important Broadway productions of the last three decades. Speaking of Florence Klotz's work on the legendary original production of Follies, which Matera built, producer David Merrick, who was not involved in the production, called them the best he'd ever seen on Broadway.
Matera is survived by her husband, a sister, Pauline Ritchie-Fallon, three nieces, one great-niece, and three great-nephews. A requiem Mass will be held for her on Friday, September 21st , at 10am, at Holy Cross Church, 329 W. 42nd Street. In lieu of flowers, Mr. Matera requests that donations be made to Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS, 1560 Broadway, New York, NY 10036.

One of the hot favourites for the African Cup of Nations, Senegal, were sent packing yesterday by co-hosts, Equatorial Guinea. The National Lightning left it late to produce one of the biggest upsets in the history of the competition.
Randy opened the scoring in the game that was played in the Estadio de Bata, before Moussa Sow who plays in France for Lille, equalised in the 89th minute. But Kily produced a sensational 25-yard drive deep into added time to send the stadium into a frenzy. Not even the sending off of their centre-back, Laurence Doe, moments after the goal was enough to kill the atmosphere.
This achievement is stunning in all ramifications, as the coach of the team, Gilson Paulo only met his squad three weeks ago. On the other hand, Senegal came into the competition with Africa's best forward line that included Moussa Sow (Lille), Demba Ba & Papiss Demba Cisse (Newcastle), Dame Ndoye, Mamadou Niang (Marseille), etc. But they all laboured against the debutants who are one of the lowest-ranked teams (they are 151st in the world) to ever contest a Nations Cup.
"I congratulate Equatorial Guinea for qualifying," a downcast Amara Traore, coach of Senegal said. "We tried everything, I'm content for my players, they gave their all. I am frustrated though, as we came here to make an impact."
One coach who will beaming with smiles is Alan Pardew. The Newcastle manager just concluded the signing of Papiss Demba Cisse to form a mouth watering partnership upfront with country man, Demba Ba. The Teranga Lions have a meaningless game against Libya left, before the strikers depart to Tyneside.
The destination of this year's EPL trophy, in my opinion, has been decided. It will either be London or Manchester. The top five teams in the league for a while now have been the two Manchester teams, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur. We've already moved in the second half of league games and they are steadily breaking away from the chasing pack. It is indeed hard to see all five teams have a meltdown at the same time.
This Sunday, Arsenal host Manchester United, while their neighbours, Tottenham Hotspur are away in Manchester to City. By the time these matches are concluded, there might be an exchange of positions on the log.
The first time the Gunners played United, there are ten goals at Old Trafford. United scored eight of them. But Arsene Wenger's men did well to hit good form and they currently sit in fifth position. The North London will be banking on their impressive home form and the excellent form of Robin van Persie to get them a win.
Spurs have surprise a few pundits. Harry Redknapp's men have played some really fantastic football this season and Gareth Bale's form has been sensational. City have their main man, David Silva back but they will be missing the spine of the team – the Toure brothers and suspended captain, Vincent Kompany. It promises to be a very combustible encounter, as both managers have been making the headlines all week.
If Chelsea had managed to get all three points against Norwich yesterday, the build up to these games would have been more interesting. The Blues' form have been patchy lately and their defence a bit suspect. And Andre Villas-Boas' men were out of sorts yesterday as Torres' bad form continued. A win for the West Londoners would have seen them move closer to the top three, ready to capitalise on any errors.
In my opinion, it still doesn't count for anything. All four teams will march onto the pitch fully aware that there is virtually no room for margin. It might be just January, but this is crunch time.
I expect my timeline to be on far this afternoon. Last Sunday, after Arsenal were shocked by Swansea, I could hardly deal with my mentions. Fans of Chelsea and United descended and tore into me and other Arsenal supporters. I can remember some people virtually pulling off their hair and almost smashing their phones/PCs because of all the banter. And I also remember tweeting that if you think you saw anything, make sure you don't log onto Twitter today at all. It will be bloody!
In Twitterspeak, it is called 'setting p'. It is not an entirely different concept though. It's been there since the days when Facebook was always the first website we visited daily. I don't know how and why the term was coined and I'm not even going to explain what it is all about. Use your tongue to count your teeth biko.:p
So I decided to set p with this particular chic on Twitter (handle witheld). Because Twitter can be such a rowdy place, and you will likely not remember how and where you came across stuff, I really can't tell how we met. But I'm sure it's her avatar that pulled me in X_X. And then the setting of P started. "Now following @xyz," I tweeted, careful not to add 'pls follow back', as I have been subject of coded insults and at other times,
Twitter's notification a few minutes later confirmed she had followed back. The next step was sending a DM. I didn't dull. i selected the option and typed: "Hi! What's popping na? Please give me your pin so I can add you on bbm." This is the first point where it can be a bit tricky, because she might read the handwriting on the wall and is not interested. She might simply just ignore it.
She didn't. But her response weakened me. "Wassup? My pin is 234567890. Pls be decent and no immoral talk." Choi! Yawa haff gased! What did I do? I simply added her and ignored her. I wanted to set p and not evangelize! 3-I

SB Nation's 2011 NFL mock draft is up and running at Mocking The Draft and the first pick is in. Representing the Carolina Panthers, SB Nation's Cat Scratch Reader selects QB Blaine Gabbert.
Given the players available, and the Panthers current position with the No. 1 overall pick, I think this is the best selection. Gabbert isn't as good of a prospect as some other top picks but he comes with little baggage and a good work ethic.
Cat Scratch Reader explains the pick:
Gabbert may not be the best prospect in the draft, but short of a sudden trade for Kevin Kolb, the Panthers' need for a franchise-caliber prospect at QB outweighs the risk. Gabbert's humble upbringing and polished persona will be the face of the Panthers franchise for many years to come.
Check out Mocking The Draft for the reaction to the pick. I like it because, as MTD points out, you have examine the risk involved. I believe Gabbert comes with little risk relative to another potential top pick, QB Cam Newton. Newton's ceiling may be a little higher but for a franchise that simply cannot miss on this pick, Gabbert is the safer choice.
Check out Cat Scratch Reader for more on the Panthers draft plans and Mocking The Draft for the full explanation of the pick.

Anna Sui spring.
Designers at the Resort/Cruise 2013 shows had a lighter more whimsical take on prints. While previous runways maintained a stronger more graphic aesthetic, the Resort lines emphasized watercolor florals, blurred abstract prints, and wavy stripes.
Favorites looks from Fall 2013. Top brands and designer brands from all over the world. Those looks have something classic in them but are fare from boring looks. I'll certainly pick in these collections to work on my photography.
fall twenty eleven
This isn't math, but bold prints that use geometric shapes and patterns to create great lines, definition, and symmetric/asymmetric prints in clothing.
So long to perfectly coordinated outfits. Designers went all out with mismatched prints at the Resort/Cruise 2013 shows. Every combination of stripes, graphics, polka dots, plaid and animal prints could be seen paired flawlessly coming down the runway.
In the teens, graphic prints will rule the land and fashion will be better!!
My favorite looks from Rag & Bone this season.
I liked this collection. the leather pieces. the stripes. I liked it. the colors were on trend with everyone else, that doesnt hurt.

Thank you for all of your help during our stay, and for wanting us to be comfortable and feel at home. Thank you for putting us into such a beautiful home, too; We loved it!!! It had everything!!! that we needed, and I realized that I overpacked. Next time, I will not bring so much. We had a wonderful vacation, and we got to see many great spots. I have lovely shells in a bowl on my table, that will remind me of our vacation each time I look at them.
I wish that we had gotten to meet you to thank you in person.
Thanks, so much!! I hope to talk to you again.
All the Best,

Beautiful property in beautiful location
Review submitted: July 23, 2012 Date of arrival: July 2, 2012
Beautifully furnished property in the tranquil location of Rotonda. We have stayed on the Rotonda several times and are always drawn back. The property is very large and is extremely tastefully furnished. Would recommend to anyone as the website photos really don't do it justice!

Vacation in Paradise for Family of 8
Review submitted: December 16, 2010 Date of arrival: November 20, 2010
Our family of 8 stayed in this GORGEOUS Rotonda home during Thanksgiving week. The home stands out among the rest; it is impeccably decorated and the location is perfect for many beaches and activities. We enjoyed a fire at night in the fire pit. We enjoyed the pool and had privacy which we enjoyed. The hot tub in the cooler evenings was a huge bonus. The master bedroom is gigantic; what a beautiful room! A large family or even two families could easily share this home for a vacation. There is so much to do in this area; this home is fabulous for a perfect vacation.
Recommended for: families with teenagers, sight seeing
Owners response: This is one of my favorite homes -- its big enought for 2 familes -- our interior company put the furnishings together and it really is fabulous!

The Bridgeton, MO store took great care of me while I was renting a space at their location. Despite being overseas in Europe for almost the entire period I rented the space, they were very accommodating to anything and everything I needed.

I cannot say enough good things about Uncle Bob's! I have recommended it to just about anyone I talk to about my situation. It sounds crazy but I was actually sad to leave the unit. I had no idea what to expect as I had never used a facility like this before and I was pleasantly surprised. It was so clean and I felt like my things were safe at home. The staff was equally as impressive with their friendliness and knowledge about what would work for me at the best rate. I will definitely use them in the future if I need storage space. It was so nice to drive through and get a wave as if I was a neighbor. Uncle Bob's definitely gets my vote! Thank you!Christine from St. Louis, MO

Pleasanton woman loses $408 through 'in-home' computer-fix visit by scam artist

"Someone claiming to be a representative of Microsoft scammed a resident of the 7400 block of Stonedale Drive in a scheme that began with a call warning of a virus, according to police reports."
I got a call from the same "Microsoft" people the other day and am a bit surprised that anyone would fall for the scam. First, they told me that they had remotely detected a virus on my Windows PC (I only use Macs), and then they offered to help remove the virus by directing me to use my web browser to go to their web site. Ha, ha!
I have to admit that the scammers have great customer service, though. I doubt that the real Microsoft corporation will ever become so enthusiastic about the virus problems of their customers that they would try to call up everyone with a virus and offer a fix.
on Nov 15, 2012 at 9:27 am
I got that phone call too. It was a guy with a heavy accent (from India I think). He asked questions that I would not answer. He then asked if I knew who Microsoft was, and I said yes. He said he called because I had a virus on my computer. I hung up and he called again but I did not answer.
The caller Id does not show a full phone number but a five digit ID.
Be careful with these people, all they want is access to your financial stuff.
on Nov 15, 2012 at 9:39 am
I also received at least two or three calls like this last week. I hung up on them as well. Anyone that thinks that Microsoft is calling them to tell them that they have detected a virus on their computer and wants to fix it remotely for them is very naive.

Rails is an MVC framework (a methodology for building applications) that was built to work with Ruby.
There are similar (MVC) frameworks that work with PHP and .NET (for example).
And MVC is not restricted to only the web. Development on iOS (in Objective-C) uses a Model-View-Controller paradigm.
Ruby is the development language. Rails is an MVC framework for applications.
If you are interested in learning Web Development, I recommend you learn

I have just noticed this feature on my Pro's menu but I don't understand what the manual says about it. I'm hoping someone can explain what it is supposed to do.
It seems clear enough that this feature is designed to automate the process of taking multiple shots but there is already the "Mult Picture" feature which does this. It would seem that the only difference between Mult Picture and Shutter Teach is that the interval between successive shots is fixed by the firmware in the former case but user-definable in the latter.
Is that right? If so, when would that be useful?

- Reviewed by: David Katzmaier
- Reviewed on: 10/11/2011
- Released on: 03/15/2011
The good: The Samsung PND7000 series has outstanding overall picture quality, with excellent black-level performance and extremely accurate color. The screen can handle bright rooms well and exhibits the nearly perfect screen uniformity of plasma. Key features include built-in Wi-Fi and a comprehensive set of picture controls, and the Smart Hub Internet portal boasts more apps and streaming services than the competition. The PND7000's design is one the most attractive of any plasma we've seen.
The bad: The relatively expensive PND7000 cannot produce full shadow detail or proper 1080p/24 cadence without sacrificing some black-level performance. Smart Hub lacks Amazon Instant, its search is next to useless, and its interface can be cluttered and confusing.
The bottom line: With picture quality on par with the best TVs we've ever tested, the Samsung PND7000 plasma represents an excellent value for videophiles who don't demand to own the top of the line.

Fantastic quality, picture and hardware alike

Pros: Easy setup, dark as night blacks, excellent picture quality, good input selection, quite passable audio.
Cons: Text entry methods change. Sometimes it's an on-screen keyboard, other times it's very frustrating telephone-style entry.

Summary: This TV is replacing an older unit. It's amazingly nice, really. The depths of the blacks is astoundingly nice, the colors are vibrant, and there are enough knobs to tune the picture to suit even the pickiest TV watcher.
Initial installation took about 15 minutes. Unbox, put on stand, plug in HDMI components and power, turn on. After setting up networking, it downloaded a software update, applied it, and rebooted the TV (who knew we'd be talking about rebooting our televisions?) at which point everything came up and everything "just worked".
Samsung's SmartTV "app store" is gimmicky and I can't see ever using it beyond the one free application worth using: Netflix. The Netflix client UI is very similar if not identical to the one on my Boxee Box. Wireless network setup on the set was painless, and it works great. The iPhone remote control application rarely ever works, but when it does it's somewhat useful - though since the input is via HDMI and not direct cable, changing channels is a bit useless. Makes for a good way to remotely shut it off, I suppose, though once you turn it off via the iPhone app...there's no way to turn it back on!
Most surprisingly is the quality of the built-in speakers. Complimenting integrated speakers probably gets me a spot on most audiophile's hit-list, but seriously - as I wait for the rest of the system to arrive, the sound provided by the television is quite adequate and fills the room. Deep bass and high fidelity they are not, but they're far from what you'd generally expect with built-ins.
I am not seeing any brightness pops, and will definitely keep an eye out for peeling. This particular unit was a recent manufacture, so perhaps the two most common issues discussed here in various reviews have been addressed. For best deal of the Samsung PN59D7000, I suggest you have to check before you decide at: Dealscheck.info/samsung-pn59d7000/
I would absolutely buy this TV again.

Summary: I had narrowed my choice between the Samsung and LG brands and purchased the Samsung PN59D7000 Plasma primarily based on the other reviews of Samsung. Setup and installation was a breeze. This model came with built in Wi-Fi and it immediately recognized my home wireless network. Setting up the Smart TV features was a snap (Netflix, You tube etc). So far (been about 3 weeks) I have no regrets at all about the Samsung. The picture quality is fantastic. The TV is in the family room which does get a lot of indirect sunlight (which I was led to believe was not good with Plasma) but this turned out to be a non-issue. I have no issues with glare or reflection when the TV is on.Edit Link
Other reviews of this Samsung model talk about a "peeling issue". So far I have not experienced this issue. With school out, the TV is on nearly 8 hrs a day. I had previously read about a buzzing noise emitting from the speakers and it is noticeable in low volumes. The quality of the sound emitting from the Samsung is not very good. I disengaged the TV's speakers and route all audio thru my home theater system and I do not hear the buzz.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. Channels available on Hi Def are magnificent. The colors are very vibrant. I am not a techie and and not going into technical details. I know when I see a good picture on the TV screen and what I see everyday is fabulous.
This TV is fantastic. The Smart TV features are awesome. I discarded my 300 CD changer, digitized my entire music CD collection on to a PC and then stream into the Samsung TV and listen on the home theater sound system. No Peeling issue. Watch HD moviews via Vudu and I cant say enought about the picture quality.
P.S. If you will buy this TV I suggest you have to check price before you decide at: www.amazon.com/exec/******/****/B004MN79A0/***************

by vihdeeohphiuhl on August 26, 2011
Pros: There are no pros once you consider that any of the potential pros will worsen and change as the panel ages. If you want to count a deep black level and excellent color accuracy when the set is brand new as pros, I suppose you could. However, this telev
Cons: Black level continues to lighten (worsen) as the panel ages; Color saturation becomes worse and more washed out as black level lightens and panel continues to age. Panel starts to peel on the top corners and edges

Summary: This is less than a one star television when you consider the fact that almost every single D8000 and D7000 panel in 59" and 64" will begin peeling from the top corners or the top edge. Avsforum has over a thousand posts from owners of 59" and 64" D7000 and D8000's that have experienced the screen (anti-reflective/real black filter) peeling away after a relatively small amount of use. There are dozens of pictures.
I owned four defective 64" sets within about four and a half months. Three of them experienced the screen peeling problem. The other couldn't even be attached to the stand due to shoddy manufacturing.
Furthermore, the black level of Samsung's D8000 and D7000 panels continues to age as the panel ages. The black level lightens (becomes worse/becomes grayer) much quicker than even previous generation Panasonic plasma panels did. The Panasonic panels of years past did experience some black level loss, but the black level started out much deeper and darker to begin with, and lightened much slower than these D8000 and D7000 Samsung's black levels are. 2010 Panasonic plasma's black levels even stopped lightening after a certain amount of usage. Samsung's 2011 sets might only experience this black level lightening until they reach a certain age as well, but right now it is too soon to tell. We only know that the black level of 2011 Samsung plasmas lightens a lot, and lightens quickly with a very small amount of use.
This lightening of the black level causes the color saturation of these sets to become washed out quickly. I had to completely recalibrate the latest and last 64" D8000 that I had after a little more than a month of use. Colors that looked properly saturated and superbly accurate became quite washed out and less than accurate, due to the ever lightening black level.
Everything I describe, and my experiences with 2011 Samsung plasma televisions warrants a review of one star or less. I'm sorry but I just can't rate them any higher considering everything I have experienced and read about in regards to all of these issues.

Brightness fluctuations ruin this TV.
by noseeb13 on December 5, 2011

Summary: Problem has gotten worse over time and no matter what settings I adjust or what type of content I watch (Blu ray, DIRECTV, play video games) dark scenes will sometimes brighten up and then return to normal. Some movies like Super 8 are unwatchable on this set.
I have been working with Samsung reps and techs for 3 months now and they are very dismissive over the issue saying it is not the TV but ALL the content I am watching. I don't have these issues with my other TVs or looking at the same content on the comparable Panasonic Plasma.
This is the last Samsung product I will ever buy, shame I had to learn my lesson over an expensive TV.

Brightness fluctuations kill this TV
by Zacowacko on September 29, 2011

Summary: This TV has constant brightness fluctuations, entire screen, not just blacks. Samsung replaced all my boards and my entire panel, still does it. Panasonic had same problem with this year TV and fixed with a firmware update, Samsung chooses to ignore us and hope we don't notice. Look for the thread in avs forum "DoeS your 2011 Samsung plasma have brightness pops". There are hundreds of people posting that they do and no fix has been made. Don't know hi CNET hasn't noticed. I would post a link but would most likely get deleted, easy find with search. It is annoying as can be, brings you out of what you are
watching and washes out picture.

Fantastic TV!
by hammonddave on January 3, 2012
Pros: Beautiful Color and Brightness
Deep Inky Blacks
Uniform brightness
Very classy bezel design
Amazingly Affordable
Excellent Anti Reflective Screen
Cons: None that I can report.

Summary: I did a lot of research before I jumped on this television. I read about all the issues that many of the early purchasers of this set had. These included the screen peeling issue as well as brightness pops and buzzing from the panel. I waited until November to purchase as the complaints seemed to end with the June builds of this television.
I purchased the 64 inch version for $2050 on Amazon figuring that if there were any issues I would just return it at no cost to me. When it arrived I saw that it had an August build date (made in Mexico). I turned it on and experienced one of the most beautiful pictures I had ever seen. Not only were the colors spectacular, but the contrast was amazingly vivid and deep.
I am a professional lighting designer and color accuracy is extremely important in my profession. As much of my research consists of viewing BluRay concerts and films, the accuracy of the TV is of paramount importance.
I have been running the television for about four weeks. There is no evidence of peeling. If act, I find hat the television is emitting a very little amount of heat. This is something my wife and I discovered after auditioning the tv at Best Buy. They had a 59 inch PN7000 next to a 64 inch. There was a lot of heat emitting from the 59 inch,, but very little from the 64 inch. I have no idea if they addressed this in the larger models or later builds, but this may have been the issue with the screen peeling problem.
Just in case I ran the tv on a scrolling test pattern for 10 hours at full contrast and brightness to be sure that the screen would not peel . After ten hours the panel was still cool and no degration was apparent.
There is absolutely no buzzing coming from this television. It is virtually silent. I also found if you turn the contrast down to 95 or below you basically eliminate any brightness popping.
I highly recommend that you audition this television.

Sorry D. Katz. You can't get any better than this.
by MikeHudsonATL on August 8, 2011
Pros: Across the board, the picture quality is best available. Oustanding design and features. Rectangular stand more attractive than D8000 4 spoke design. Best value amoung the top tier plasmas.
Cons: Blacks not as deep as VT30. Not as fully featured as the D8000. Heard reports of anti-reflective coating peel.

Summary: I posted my user review of this TV under the D8000 review not expecting CNET to conduct a full review the D7000. Being similar enough, I assumed CNET would just refer this TV to their review of the D8000. I'm glad they did review separately. This reaffirms my findings when I was TV hunting (my story of how I chose the PN59D7000 is under the D8000 review). Here's a brief summary; you can read my full comments on my previous posting.
CNET states the D7000 as the best TV of 2011 so far. I agree. Hands down winner when factoring in picture quality, features, design and price.
CNET says VT30 still has better picture quality, slightly. I disagree... subjectively.
Black level winner - VT30 by a slight margin
Color presentation - D7000 by a notable margin
AR effectiveness - D7000 by a slight margin
When it comes down to it, how important is black level performance to you? If it's your make-or-break metric then you'll be happier with the VT30. Black levels are very important to me but the D7000's is darn good and rated by CNET as excellent. VT30's is awesome. I've seen HDTV's with light blacks and cruddy dark shadow detail and they make me cringe. But man, the colors, the colors of the D7000 really pop. I can't say that for the VT30.

Excellent Picture Quality and Exceptional Value!
by smirak on August 10, 2011
Pros: Rich, contrasty picture quality, deep blacks, great 3D, beautifully sleek design, good calibration controls, and less reflective than most plasmas, all at price that blows the comparable Panasonic models out of the water.
Cons: Picture needs a little tweaking out of the box to really shine (no THX mode), and the interface for switching video inputs could be a bit more refined.
Summary: The d7000 is, hands down, the BEST value of 2011. This is just a beautiful TV, both in terms of picture quality and aesthetics. The only other serious competition is ...
Summary: The d7000 is, hands down, the BEST value of 2011. This is just a beautiful TV, both in terms of picture quality and aesthetics. The only other serious competition is Panasonic's vt30 series, but the d7000 is MUCH cheaper for comparable image quality. I cannot hear a buzz unless I put my ear right next to the panel. The blutooth 3D glasses sync easily, they're cheaper than other brands, and cross-talk is very minimal. I have absolutely no regrets, and neither will you.

OpenSSH 5.2 Secured and Tuned
Even though the OpenSSH project emphasizes that the focus of 5.2 is bug fixes to the 5.1 version, 5.2 does contain some notable enhancements.
Security-wise the new OpenSSH version replaces cipher block chaining (CBC) mode as the default cipher order with the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Counter (CTR) mode to remove the susceptibility to "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH." The software also adds other countermeasures to these attacks, as reported in CPNI Vulnerability Advisory SSH 957037. Last November it became clear that many versions of OpenSSH exposed up to 32 bits of plaintext ciphertext to attackers when the default CBC mode was in use. The solution in 5.2 was to read the maximum supported packet length instead of terminating the connection, thereby eliminating the leaks that allowed the plaintext recovery attacks.
Compared to OpenSSH 5.1, the updated version provides further command line options and minor functional enhancements. For example, the ssh -y option redirects logging to syslog and dynamic port forwarding was improved. The release changelog includes the list of fixed bugs.
OpenSSH emanates from the OpenBSD project, where a separate team focuses on OpenSSH's portability to different systems. The mirrors with the portable versions also include diffs against the OpenBSD source.

Retired Tyler dentist Bobby Nichols was sentenced to 20 years in prison for the June murder of his wife.
jury deliberated for six hours before deciding on Nichols' sentence.
He'll have to serve at least ten years before he's eligible for parole.
At that time, he'll be 86 years old.
On June 29, 2012,
police raced to the Nichols' Southeast Tyler home. It was there they
found 71-year-old Rosalind Nichols dead in the living room. Her husband
had already confessed to the crime. In the 911 call Nichols
says, "This is doctor Bobby Nichols. I live at 3417 Allen. I just killed
my wife and I need an ambulance... and I need the sheriff to come get
me."Nichols was booked into jail, and days later released on
bond. He'd later violate that bond by purchasing alcohol on multiple
occasions. Outside the Smith County Courthouse in July, Nichols told KLTV 7 what he had done when he blurted out, "I killed my wife."Just
a month earlier, Rosalind and Bobby Nichols had joined Tyler Junior
College alumni on a trip to Europe. During the trial, Nichols said
Rosalind got frustrated with his deteriorating physical health on that
trip. "We had problems, like everybody, but it has left me awful empty," Nichols testified during the trial.On the stand, Nichols said he intended to scare Rosalind, but did not mean to kill her. The state didn't buy his defense. "I don't know why you keep badgering me and badgering me," Nichols said to prosecutors after a series of questioning."Well, because you murdered your wife," they responded.Prosecutors said Nichols' story didn't match up with what he'd said the night of the crime. On June 29, 2012, the 911 dispatcher asked Nichols, "You're not trying to hurt yourself or anybody else, are you?"Nichols replied, "No. In fact, I would have shot her more than twice, but the gun...sort of... it didn't shoot but twice."Many of Nichols' friends testified that he was a peaceful man with a respectable reputation. But
after a week of trial, Nichols seemed to know things weren't going his
way. On Wednesday evening he emerged from the court office shaking his
head "no" and making a slicing motion across his throat with his finger.
The jury found him guilty.Thursday afternoon, attorneys asked the jury to put a sentence with that verdict. "We're
going to proudly ask you to sentence him to a term of confinement of
life and to give him exactly what he took from Rosalind Nichols," said
Smith County Assistant District Attorney Jason Parrish."You've
heard that he has been a good provider for his family all his life, and
the State says that should count for zero," argued Nichols' defense
attorney Bradley Lollar. Lollar asked the jury to sentence Nichols to
five years in prison.Ultimately, the jury decided Rosalind's
death was a crime of sudden passion. That meant, jurors unanimously
believed someone with an ordinary temper may have acted the way Nichols
did under the circumstances. For Nichols, that meant the most time he
could serve dropped from life in prison to 20 years. As he was
being taken back to the jail, Nichols caught his family members' eyes.
Across the courtroom, Nichols waved to them and mouthed, "I love
y'all." He blew kisses to them and gave them one last reassuring thumbs
up. They were words and gestures of a parent's goodbye-- something
Rosalind's children will never get to see or hear.
Rosalind and Bobby Nichols were married for more than 25 years. Nichols reserves the right to appeal the jury's verdict.

650ml bottle.
This beer pours a cloudy amber with two fingers of off-white head and visible carbonation. The head mostly dissipates within a few minutes, leaving behind some bubbles across the top of the beer and some streaks on the side of the glass.
The smell is fruity! I'm mainly picking up pineapple and melon. Very appealing.
The taste is an interesting combination of tropical fruits, grassy bitterness and pine. I like it, but I'm not sure I could drink much of it. It's pretty bitter (and it's 9.2%). I probably would be better off splitting this with someone!
Note to self: maybe stick to IPAs instead of Imperial/Double IPAs.

3.89/5 rDev -3.5%
App: Slightly hazy but a nice crisp gold color. A very nice white head with decent retention and very good lacing.
Nose: Banana, pineapple, grain and malt up front. A little citrus and tropical fruits.
Taste: Some sweet tropical fruits and crisp carbonation up front. Very nice balance of sweet and bitter. Very clean finish.

3.98/5 rDev -1.2%
Appearance: Light Orange with a moderate amount of head. A bit cloudy, but still a good looking beer.
Aroma: Wonderful sharp, tropical aroma, very similar to snap crackle pop. Alomost seems like they used the same hop profile.
Taste: Tropical assault, just wonderfull. Citrussy bitterness. Orange, lemons, pineapple.
Muthfeel: A little light for anIPA, but good slickness. Hoppy goodness.
Overall it seems like this is a white ipa version of Snap crackle pop. Sooo similar, but the taste isn't as intense. Th body is much lighter. Great beer, but I prefer Snap.

Pours a cloudy amber color with moderate off-white head. Smell is a lot less hard-hitting than I'd hoped for a double IPA brewed with Nelson hops. You get some faint hop notes, almost all of them consisting of tropical fruit.
Taste is pretty damn good. Again, I saw the Nelson hops on the ingredients list and I kinda assumed this would be an over the top beer for some reason (I guess mainly because most of the Nelson IPAs I've had have had that distinction), but it turned out to be the complete opposite: this beer has a really mellow tone to it: light malt body (and by light I mean you probably won't taste it), supporting a really mellow yet gorgeous hop profile of tropical fruits and mild citrus.
Mouthfeel is similarly grand with medium to low carbonation making this beer a very easy drinker. Alcohol, to me, is completely hidden, though I've seen people say it's noticeable, so your mileage may vary, I guess (a strange statement to make on a beer review site, I know). I personally found it to be almost too drinkable, given its alcohol content. I guess maybe that's my main problem with this beer (which admittedly isn't a very big one) - it doesn't have enough "zing" to make you feel like you're drinking a double IPA. If the alcohol content had been hidden, I wouldn't have placed this above a 6.5, maybe a 7 max. I also don't know if this really fits the definition of a white IPA. The wheat seems very subdued to me, although I guess it does lend the beer a slightly creamier quality.
So anyway, I'll just come out and say this: ToH seems almost identical in taste to P49's earlier Snap, Crackle, Hop. I'm not sure if it's just me tasting this or what, but the hop profile is really similar, as is the body of the beer (except a bit creamier, as I said earlier). It's obviously lacking the rice, so maybe P49 decided to brew this as an answer to all the people complaining about the use of rice in SCH. It definitely seems to follow the same standards: thin malt body, hop profile vehicle. Still, if these things didn't bother you about SCH, they shouldn't bother you here. And if you disliked the rice in SCH, you might be able to appreciate this version of the brew a bit more.
edit: now that I have it again, this beer smells kinda glorious. My nose was probably switched off when I first had it.

Looks like Gregg Easterbrook over at ESPN's Page 2 is giving us some scholarly love! "What about the other commonly heard claim -- that "smart schools" can't win in football and men's basketball? Cal, Georgia Tech, Navy, Nebraska, Northwestern, Stanford and TCU -- all academics-first colleges where football players are more likely to attend class -- are on their way to bowl games. " "Reader Natasha Lettis of Oakland, Calif., provides this troika of stories about academics being enforced in the Cal football program: One player gave up his starting position because a class he requires for graduation conflicts with practice; another was suspended for a game for missing class; this article assesses Cal's overall commitment to blending academics and football. Cal's example shows that a football-factory school can enforce academic rules and still have a great season -- Cal finished 8-4 and will face Utah in the Poinsettia Bowl." "Is this autumn some kind of fluke? No. Last year, Boston College, Cal, Georgia Tech, Navy, North Carolina, Northwestern, Notre Dame, Rice, TCU, Vanderbilt and Wake Forest made bowls. " "The field for last season's NCAA men's basketball tournament included Boston College, Butler, Cal, Cornell, Duke, North Carolina, Purdue, UCLA, Villanova and Wake Forest. In the women's tournament, Cal, Dartmouth, Duke, Georgia Tech, Lehigh, North Carolina, Notre Dame, Stanford, TCU, Villanova and Vanderbilt made it."
