The government's resident anti-videogames moral crusader, Keith
Vaz, has struck out against Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
3 in an Early Day Motion put to Parliament.
EDM 2427, asserts not only that Modern Warfare
3 makes players attack the general public, but also
implies a link between violent videogames and violent video games
players. Bizarrely, the EDM is titled Call of Duty 3,
but given we've got no evidence that Vaz has played the game in
question, we'll chalk that one up to an unfamiliarity with the
subject matter. Continue reading
As problems go, this is about as first-world as it gets: My iPad
doesn't fit into my iPod dock.
You might be familiar with Sonos, a company that makes an
impressive range of networked hi-fi equipment that lets you put
music from almost any source into any room in your house. There's a
range of accessories, including one that lets you plug in and
charge an iPhone and play music from it. It's enormously handy if
you want to hear something that's on your phone, but you can't be
bothered to hunt down a phono-to-3.5mm-jack cable and fiddle around
the back of your stereo plugging it in. Continue reading
If you were to believe the hype, then you might think that
downloads are dead. Streaming music legally, through services like
Spotify, Last.fm, and Pandora, is becoming increasingly popular,
but in reality, there are some serious problems that need to be
fixed before they can reach the level of success that Apple and
Amazon have enjoyed with their own digital music services. The
biggest is a lack of trust.
A survey of 1000 music fans, commissioned by eMusic and reported
in CMU Daily, has found that the majority of listeners
still prefer to keep a copy of tracks on their hard drive, for a
multitude of reasons. We knew that already, but the survey digs
into the reasons why people don't trust streaming sites, which are
much more interesting. Continue reading
Minigolf games are part of the very fabric of the internet. Like
dancing babies, emotional teenagers, celebrity sex tapes
and Maru, they're an unavoidable part of online life, and
that's okay.
The problem is a lack of innovation. Pretty much all minigolf
games are the same. White circle hits black circle on green
background and you get some points. Sometimes there's slopes, but
that's about as far as it goes. That's why I was pretty excited
when I played Wonderputt. Continue reading
RIM has unveiled a music service for its BlackBerry
handsets that'll let users listen to their own, and other peoples',
favourite songs.
For those used to services like Spotify or iTunes,
it's constructed in a rather odd way -- each user picks up to 50
tracks to put on their personal profile, which anyone who is
friends with them on BlackBerry Messenger can then listen to.
Essentially, the size of your music library is determined by the
number of friends you have, and what their music taste is like. You
can change up to 25 of the songs in your library each month. Continue reading
Amidst widespread calls from MPs, David Cameron has pledged to
investigate the possibility of turning off social networks during
times of crisis, lumping Britain in with some rather unsavoury
The UK has long criticised countries like China, Iran and Libya
for censoring the web and clamping down on dissent, which will
appears incredibly hypocritical to the rest of the world if he then
proceeds to do the same thing on his own turf. Opinion pieces in
international newspapers have already started popping up with
headlines like "what goes around, comes around". Continue reading
Amidst plans for permitting parody, legalising CD ripping, and
abandoning website-blocking proposals, Ian Hargreaves'
recommendation of creating a Digital Copyright Exchange -- now
adopted by the government -- hasn't generated much in the way of
But it could have a bigger impact on the British creative
industries, as well as the wider economy, than any other proposal
in the government's re-think of intellectual property. Continue reading
For some time, Twitter has been considered a foremost source of
breaking news, but on the third night of rioting across the UK, it
spread misinformation far faster.
The social network proved invaluable at getting information out
from the front line during the Arab Spring, during wildfires in the
United States and Australia, during various election campaigns,
during the News International scandal, and during the British
education protests at the start of 2011, to pick just a few
examples. But during the August riots in London, despite that
heritage, Twitter spread little but paranoia and fear. Continue reading
It looked like things were changing for the better. Six
months ago, Ubisoft was rolling back on the worst excesses of
its egregious DRM. Now, in the space of a week, we've not only
had the news that Ubisoft reckons that its approach has been
" a success" but that it's spreading -- Blizzard will be
adopting a similar approach for its long-awaited
action-RPG, Diablo III.
That's right. To play Diablo 3, you'll need a constant internet
connection -- it cannot be played offline. PC
Gamer asked Blizzard why, and the response from
senior producer Alex Mayberry was: "Obviously StarCraft
2 did it, World of
Warcraft authenticates also. It's kind of the way things
are, these days. The world of gaming is not the same as it was
when Diablo 2 came out." Continue reading
I spent a big chunk of the weekend playing 2004's remake
of Sid Meier's Pirates! on the iPad. It was
brilliant, and made me wonder why so many other genres fail
miserably when confronted by the tablet format.
Most console-style first person shooter, sports and action
titles just don't work. The cold, flat, unmoving screen isn't an
adequate replacement for the tactile feel of a joypad, and it's all
too easy to slide your finger off the on-screen keypad and onto
another button instead, while you wonder why you're running into a
wall, rather than leaping heroically into the fray. Even attempts
to make the controls haptic with vibration feedback aren't good
enough. Continue reading

Well I doth my cap to Goodmans. Mid week evening meal. We booked for 7.45 – 8 pm…Warmly greeted on entry. Great little bar to the left as you walk in that was buzzing …but not too loud !. We had a booth and were escorted immediately to our table. We were presented with the board of meats and the waitress described each cut in turn , gave recomendations and answered all questions. We all ordered different cuts of meat. I had the ribeye ( which is always a gamble in the UK ) Well it was the best ribeye I've had in a long long time. …and tasting eachothers cuts I can safely safe everyone's meat was TOP NOTCH. The wine list was extensive enough and had some quality bottles. The service was perfect. Not too intrusive ..but then not that distant. You only had to raise you head away from your guests and someone was there…even with it being fullto capacity ..the staff were very attentive. I will not hesitate to book here again. Downside ? . Like The Palm… this place is not cheap. …but worth every penny. It is without doubt 'up there' with the best steaks Ive had. Just go…try it for yourself…you wont be let down !

The Ultimate Music Listening Experience: Etymotic HF3 Earphone Review
Etymotic Research are revered for two things:
Accuracy: All of their earphones offer unparalleled accuracy. They are 'true to the ear'; they provide a level sound, and don't pump up the bass disproportionally like the Beats By Dre and some others.
Seal: The earphones provide an incredible seal to block out external sound. But are they worth the ~£130/$199 price tag?
Accuracy: All of their earphones offer unparalleled accuracy. They are 'true to the ear'; they provide a level sound, and don't pump up the bass disproportionally like the Beats By Dre and some others.
Seal: The earphones provide an incredible seal to block out external sound. But are they worth the ~£130/$199 price tag?
SoundAt first I was a little disappointed with the HF3s, the sound was average at best and the promised seal was nowhere to be seen. Then I watched this video which explains how to insert them properly, you just have to raise your ear a bit and then put the earphones in.
Wow, the seal was incredible. My music and I hit a new level of intimacy, and I couldn't hear anything around me; even at low volumes. Any frequent flyers or commuters will fall in love with the noise cancellation. I didn't know earphones could achieve such powerful passive noise cancellation. Your ears will thank you too, because you won't have to pump up the volume to drown out the background noise, although they may feel a little violated at how far in these things go. It takes a few days to get used to, but after that they feel great.
The sound is incredibly crisp and you really feel immersed in whatever you're listening to. You'll hear parts of songs you probably didn't know existed and I found myself subconsciously rocking my head and smiling whilst listening.
The bass is tight and accurate, and was at just the right level for me. However bass heads probably won't be satisfied as they don't provide the skull shattering levels of it found in some other earphones. This stems from the fact that Etymotic Research offer supreme accuracy as opposed to unnaturally pumping up the bass. You can imagine the Etymotics to be the natural tasting, free range chickens of the earphone industry as opposed to the hormone injected, battery chickens. Do you want to hear the true sound or the artificial one?
FitThe Etymotic HF3s come with a high quality carrying pouch, which includes a separate compartment for the three extra earbuds included. These range from the usual Christmas tree style earbuds, to the large foams cylinders. There's enough variety in the size, shape and material of the different earbuds to ensure that everyone can get a comfortable fit. If you're serious about getting a great fit you can pay around £70 to get an audiologist to make a mould of your ears and send you some custom fitted earbuds (pictured below). I haven't tried this yet, so I can't comment on it, but it's something I'll consider in the future. More information is available here.
Attention To DetailEtymotic Research have designed a cable jack which is very thin around where the jack enters your iOS device. This means that they should fit into your iPhone no matter how thick your case is (within reason).
The jack is also angular which means that the cable won't break around where it connects to the jack. A subtle feature, but an appreciated one.
The cable is of high quality and does not tangle no matter how I stuff it into my pocket. The HF3s also have a 3-button remote with which you can play/pause, skip forward/backwards and put the volume up and down. The remote also has a microphone, and since the remote is so high up on the earphones (level with your mouth), you sound great on the phone (or so I'm told).
One Little ComplaintWhen walking with these, I noticed a lot of cable noise. I could hear rustling as the cable rubbed against my clothes. This problem can be reduced by using the included clip to attach the cable to your shirt, but it was still noticeable. This coupled in with the superb noise isolation means that I wouldn't advise using these earphones whilst jogging or walking on the road because the cable noise will annoy you. The noise isolation can be reduced if you need to be able to hear your surroundings by using their free Awareness app which can be downloaded from here.
ConclusionThe Etymotic HF3 earphones offer crystal clear sound and I can't praise the seal they offer enough. They may not please bass heads but they don't claim to. They are for those who would like to hear their music like the artist intended and they deliver just that. They are a must-have for any frequent commuters because of their awesome seal, or for anyone who wants sound quality like no other for under $200. You might just have to listen to your whole music collection again. You can buy them from their site here, or from Amazon below.

They spoke little on the ride to her apartment. Once they got there, Gray told her to wait in the entryway while he took a look around. It seemed like overkill to her, but she didnt argue. However, she didnt stay where hed told her to, either. Instead, she went into the kitchen to open her mail. That earned her a dark scowl from Gray when he came out of the bedroom several minutes later. Paisley pretended not to notice.
Ive been on a stakeout for a couple of days, he said after declaring the apartment clear. Do you mind if I use your shower?
She glanced up from the Victoria's Secret catalog she had been flipping through. No, go ahead.
Thanks. He picked up his overnight bag from the floor where hed left it. I wont be long. Keep the door locked and dont open it to anyone.
Yeah, yeah. She went back to flipping through the catalog, only to pause when she heard the shower turn on a few minutes later. She had looked for a way to give Gray the slip ever since theyd walked out of the police station, and she decided she wasnt going to get a better opportunity than right then. While she had to admit she really didnt mind having the hunky inspector around, she hated being told what to do, especially by her father. Time to exercise her independence.
Tossing the catalog on the counter, Paisley hurried out of the kitchen and into her bedroom. Knowing she wouldnt have enough time to do more than pack a few things before Gray came out, she decided to forget about the basics and instead, just grab a dress and a pair of high heels to wear that night. Everything else she could borrow from whichever friend she stayed with. At least until it was safe to come back to her place. By safe, she meant when there wasnt some cop hanging around it.
Shoving the dress into an evening purse, Paisley picked up her shoes in her free hand and darted from the room. She had barely made it past the bathroom when the door opened.
Where the hell do you think youre going? Gray demanded from behind her.
Paisley stopped in her tracks at the commanding tone in his voice. Crap! She had hoped to slip out before Gray finished taking his shower. It just wasnt fair that guys could clean up so fast.
Squaring her shoulders, she whirled around to face him. And blinked. Though he had put on jeans, he hadnt bothered with a shirt, and all she could do was stare at him in feminine appreciation. She had known he was built, but she hadnt realized just how well. Broad shoulders, a chiseled chest, and rock-hard abs. Daaaaammmm! He had a body that just wouldnt quit.
Gray crossed his arms over his chest. Well? he prompted when she said nothing.
Paisley tore her gaze from his perfectly sculpted arms to look up at him. She hadnt realized he was so tall. Even in heels, she was still almost a head shorter than he was. She lifted her chin. Out.
His golden brown eyes narrowed. Not without me, youre not.
She let out a sigh. Look. Like I told you before, this isnt going to work. Im going to stay with some friends until this whole thing blows over. You can just tell my dad that I gave you the slip. He wont hold it against you.
I dont think so.
She clenched her jaw. I wasnt asking for your permission, Inspector. Im leaving and you cant stop me.
With that, Paisley whirled around and started for the door. She didnt even make it halfway before Gray caught her arm and turned her back around.
Youre not going anywhere.
She glared up at him. Oh, really? she countered. And just how are you going to stop me? Handcuff me to the bed?
Her words hung in the air between them for a long moment before his mouth finally quirked.
Though Ill admit thats tempting, he said, I have something more effective in mind.
Before she could ask what he meant by that, Gray led her over to the couch. What was he going to do, sit her down and lecture her?
To her surprise, Gray didnt sit her down at all, but instead took a seat himself. Totally perplexed, she was just about to ask what he was doing when a tug on her arm sent her sprawling over his knee. She had no choice but to drop the purse and shoes so she could put her hands on the floor to keep herself balanced.
For a moment, Paisley was so stunned she just lay there. She recovered quickly enough though, and when she did, she immediately tried to push herself upright. But a strong hand on her back held her firmly in place. Furious at being manhandled, she glared at him over her shoulder.
What the hell do you think youre doing? she demanded.
He returned her glower with one of his own. Teaching you a lesson.
Paisley opened her mouth to retort, only to let out a startled little gasp when she felt him smack her upturned bottom. He did not just spank her!

Healthy Hollywood met up with the gorgeous Blake Lively Tuesday at a Chanel event in New York City. The actress is absolutely stunning in person. Yes, she's got that newlywed radiance, from her recent marriage to actor Ryan Reynolds. But, she's also got the most infectious smile! Her mile-wide smile can easily warm up the most hard-hearted person.
Blake's natural beauty is certainly luck of the gene pool. But, her dazzling smile certainly had me inspecting my own less-than white-teethed grin in the mirror later that evening. Healthy Hollywood has tried at-home bleaching remedies with not-such great results. Truth be told, I just don't have the patience for the nightly bleaching ritual and my teeth get super sensitive. Alas, I ditch the whole thing and my stained teeth remain.

Healthy Hollywood recently came across a new professional in-office whitening treatment; the Philips Zoom WhiteSpeed. The 45-minute session promises to whiten teeth up to 8 shades to give you your whitest smile with minimal sensitivity. The treatment uses LED whitening technology to accelerate results.
According to Tammy Jones, a marketing manager for Philips Oral Healthcare, the treatment is super simple and perfect for time-crunched folks, like me. "The procedure begins with a special covering to protect your gums, the dentist then applies a unique hydrogen peroxide whitening gel," adds Tammy, who says the peroxide helps breakdown the stains. Tammy adds, "The LED light from the Philips Zoom WhiteSpeed lamp is then turned on to help these stain-fighting radicals whiten faster." There are three separate 15 minute sessions and at the end of each session the whitening gel is re-applied. Experts say that individuals with yellower teeth will have more dramatic results than those with grayer teeth.

The results aren't permanent, but could last up to two years. It's best to cut down on stain-inducing foods/drinks, like beets or red wine. Tammy also suggests using at-home whitening products for longer-lasting results.

Messi Is My Idol, Says Neymar
The 21-year-old is delighted to have finally made his bow in Blaugrana colours following his €57 million move and says he looks up to his Argentine team-mate
Neymar has revealed he idolises team-mate
Lionel Messi and described his debut for
Barcelona as a "dream come true".
The Brazil international was handed his highly-anticipated debut for the
Blaugrana with a 15-minute cameo in the 2-2 draw with Lechia Gdansk on Tuesday, replacing Alexis Sanchez in the 78th minute.
And, speaking to reporters after the game, the
Selecao starlet admitted the transition from dream to reality had begun after making his bow.
"What was my debut like? My dream is turning into a reality and I'm very happy," he said.
Much has been made over how the €57 million youngster's arrival will impact on Messi - who netted his team's second equaliser in the game - but the former Santos forward says he is just happy to share the same dressing room as his "idol".
"Messi is an idol of mine and I am very happy to be with him and playing alongisde him. He is a great player and a great person."
The 21-year-old is due to face his former club Santos on August 2 in the Joan Gamper trophy and, while admitting it will be an odd experience to come up against his old team-mates so soon after leaving, Neymar insists he will not be holding back on his return.
"It will be a little strange to play against Santos, but now I am with Barcelona and I'll give everything for the shirt," he added.
Neymar is expected to make his competitive debut when Barcelona take on Atletico Madrid in the Spanish Super-Cup on August 21.

"His name is Jackson Quinn, but unlike Hanks' character in the classic movie, "Big," he did not have to change size to gain his dream job. The Chagrin Falls Intermediate School sixth grader, 10, simply sent an email to Jaime Casap, Global Education Evangelist for Google.
"I would love to be Google's junior consultant and I think the best way to learn about children and what they like is from a child's perspective," Jackson wrote.
"He obtained Casap's contact information this summer, through Mike Daugherty, the district's technology director. The district is rolling out the next step of its Chromebook program this fall, but Jackson has been using his Google Nexus for about six months, and loves it."

Learn how Northeastern executed one of the most dramatic turnarounds in higher education. Its recipe for success? A single-minded focus on just one list.
by Max Kutner
"In 1996, Richard Freeland looked across the sea of crumbling parking lots that was Northeastern University and saw an opportunity few others could. As the school's new president, he had inherited a third-tier, blue-collar, commuter-based university whose defining campus feature was a collection of modest utilitarian buildings south of Huntington Avenue, with a sprinkling of newly planted trees.
"The university had been a victim of many things, most notably federal cutbacks—rolled out in the mid-'80s—that had left many colleges scrambling for money to close their budget gaps. These cutbacks, combined with dwindling enrollment, had forced Northeastern's previous president, Jack Curry, to slash the budget and cut 875 jobs in the early 1990s. When he announced the layoffs to his staff, Curry burst into tears. "To say it was an institution in turmoil would be an understatement," says a vice provost from that time.
"But Freeland, the man who had helped successfully launch UMass Boston over the previous two decades, had a plan. Freeland believed that if Northeastern could justify its increased costs to students and parents, it could be saved. And one gauge consistently determined a college's value: its position on the U.S. News & World Report "Best Colleges" rankings. Freeland observed how schools ranked highly received increased visibility and prestige, stronger applicants, more alumni giving, and, most important, greater revenue potential. A low rank left a university scrambling for money. This single list, Freeland determined, had the power to make or break a school."
By being strong, brave, and human these women changed the world.

"The college of the future," said Chris Bustamante, Rio Salado's president, "is going to need to be more like this."
"If higher education is moving slowly toward that future, the Maricopa Community College District, of which Rio Salado is a part, is racing at high speed.
"Some of the innovations being tried by the district, which has nearly a quarter of a million credit-seeking students in all at 10 separate colleges in greater Phoenix, are controversial and unproven. And most are not unique; other community colleges and some four-year universities are nibbling at them here and there.
"But few places are throwing so many reforms at the problems of higher education all at the same time.
"If we can accomplish one half, one quarter, one third of what we're attempting to do, this will be a better institution," said Rufus Glasper, the district's chancellor."

quotation from Ronald T. Kellogg
"[There is] evidence that environments, schedules, and rituals restructure the writing process and amplify performance… The principles of memory retrieval suggest that certain practices should amplify performance. These practices encourage a state of flow rather than one of anxiety or boredom. Like strategies, these other aspects of a writer's method may alleviate the difficulty of attentional overload. The room, time of day, or ritual selected for working may enable or even induce intense concentration or a favorable motivational or emotional state. Moreover, in accordance with encoding specificity, each of these aspects of method may trigger retrieval of ideas, facts, plans, and other relevant knowledge associated with the place, time, or frame of mind selected by the writer for work."

"It's a grounding in computational thinking — not a facility with the latest feature or product — that fosters future success in the field, whether students go on to become engineers or inventors or entrepreneurs.
That's a powerful rationale for teaching computational thinking to our young people. But there's a problem. In conventional computer science instruction, these principles are only accessible to those who learn how to program. This poses a big hurdle, especially for younger students. Enter Computer Science Unplugged, which has been developed at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand over the past two decades.
"Professors Tim Bell, Mike Fellows and Ian H. Witten, have figured out how to teach the concepts of computer science through games, puzzles and magic tricks. Taking the computer out of the picture — for the time being — allows children as young as five to learn about the basic ideas that undergird computer science. Youngsters can tackle topics as apparently abstruse as algorithms, binary numbers, Boolean circuits, and cryptographic protocols. The activities offered by Computer Science Unplugged are aimed at students in kindergarten through seventh grade, though they have been used by students in high school and even college."

"Around the world, many of the 783 million people who don't have clean drinking water also don't have access to electricity. A new design from an Australian high school student aims to solve both problems at once: While the device purifies wastewater, it uses pollutants in the water to boost power production in a separate compartment.
"17-year-old Cynthia Sin Nga Lam, one of 15 finalists in this year's Google Science Fair, started researching renewable electricity generation last year, and quickly realized that she could incorporate water purification into her process."

"Miller's pyramid of describes the competences identified for the healthcare education specially. It is useful for mapping assessment methods (Miller 1990). Competence indicates what people can do in a contextual vacuum, under perfect conditions. This might be evident using controlled assessment methods. Performance, however, indicates how people behave in real life, on a day-to-day basis. Figure 1[1] shows five levels of Miller's pyramid model, however Table 2 classify assessment methods for every of these levels."

"In March, the social-media giant Facebook paid a whopping $2 billion to acquire Oculus VR, the Irvine, Calif.-based startup behind a new virtual-reality headset known as the Oculus Rift. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg described Oculus' device as a "new communications platform," akin to personal computers and mobile devices, that could have similarly far-reaching implications for gaming, entertainment, social networking, and classroom learning.
"Potential educational applications include virtual field trips, immersive digital learning games and simulations, and therapeutic experiences for students with special needs.
"But not everyone is buying the hype. Previous virtual-reality technologies got a lot of attention in the 1990s, and again in the early 2000s, before mostly falling flat, and public schools in the United States are not exactly known as hotbeds for nurturing emerging technologies.
"Virtual reality is super-cool, but schools are still struggling with the blocking and tackling of getting basic digital technologies in classrooms," said Trace A. Urdan, a senior analyst for Wells Fargo Securities in San Francisco who tracks digital learning investment trends."

Allow me to enlighten you…
- Joshua M Brown
- February 22nd, 2013
Why, all of a sudden yesterday, was everyone in both traditional and social media running around like the market had just crashed?
Allow me to enlighten you…
1. Nobody is trading stocks anymore, all of the most aggressive and vocal traders are doing options. This is how a slip of 1.5% on the S&P can feel and sound like there's some sort of major move afoot. These people you're
listening subjected to are 10X leveraged currencies, triple long ETFs or they trade out of the money front month calls, LEAPs whatever. If you were slingin' around 50 grand in play money all day, you'd be doing the same thing, it's fine.
2. Cassandras get the most attention – pretty much the only thing they want anyway. There's very little attention paid to everyone else who is simply going about their business or who remembers the fact that stocks are supposed to go down once in awhile.
3. Guys talking about being all-in or all-out can and will change their opinions quickly. This is what they should be doing as professional, full-time speculators. But are you a full-time speculator? If someone can and frequently does go from fully invested to all cash to fully invested over the course of a few days, is there any particular reason that you should be paying attention to them? Will they personally be calling you to give you the second half of their trade? Well, most of you don't realize this so when someone says "ALL IN" or "ALL OUT", it gets you talking, thinking, retweeting, sharing etc.
4. There is not much real news so in its absence our imaginations are running wild. We do this as a species, its okay. Gotta have something to talk about, right? A down day for stocks quickly becomes a crash these days given the state of our modern communications capabilities.
5. Some people selling services need you to believe that it is in your best interest to manically hop from foot to foot – and they are everywhere these days. If you're engaged in this kind of thing, I'll just assume that it's your profession or your hobby. That's cool, I have unprofitable, expensive hobbies too – golf, trying new restaurants, auto-erotic asphyxiation, etc.
Anyway, this is why people are acting the way they are. Do what the real wealthy people do – put it into context, be aware of it, and focus on the bigger picture of how you're going to accumulate more wealth and businesses and friends and art and experiences. Not on how you're going to avoid a 7% temporary drawdown in a stock portfolio.

A loaded handgun found in a crowded Evansville parking lot is prompting authorities to start a conversation about gun safety, even if your household doesn't have firearms.
The loaded, semi-automatic pistol was found in the Eastland Mall parking lot, and luckily it was picked up by Sheriff Eric Williams before it ended up in the wrong hands.
Williams says he was walking around the mall parking lot with his wife on Sunday afternoon when he saw the weapon on the ground. He says, most importantly, he didn't touch the gun, he called Evansville Police.
He says at the time he didn't know if it was loaded or not, so he stood guard until officers arrived.
Now he's urging parents to teach their children what to do if they find a firearm, especially those children who aren't used to weapons and might be curious.
"It was loaded. It had a full clip in it or a full magazine, so it was usable gun. I really don't know how long it had been where it was, but it looked completely operational," Williams says. "The important thing is that kids, if you found a weapon out in the public, find a responsible adult as fast as you can. Don't touch it. Don't play with it. It may be there and it's not part of a crime, so maybe fingerprints aren't an issue. But it may be part of a crime and fingerprints are an issue. Make sure you call 911 so we can get an appropriate law enforcement jurisdiction to come and secure the weapon."
Williams says he was in a position to secure the area and wait for officers to arrive. But if you have experience with firearms, it can be in the community's best interest to go ahead and disarm the weapon and make it safe.

240 jobs to go at Hull Council: statement
"Central government have taken £90 million from the Hull City Council budget over the last five years and this continues until 2014. We have plans to save £5.7 million per year until 2014.
"If we don't make this saving through back office functions, we would have to make redundancies to our front line services.
– Councillor Daren Hale, Deputy Leader of Hull City Council
"The previous administration announced savings of £3 million in business support and did not have a plan. By upgrading IT systems and removing many paper-based processes, we are improving the efficiency of the organisation and minimising the effect to the public.
As 75p in every pound is spent on staffing, this will lead to the loss of 171 posts. The council is committed to minimising compulsory redundancies by removing vacancies, using redeployment and voluntary redundancy."

Getting More Involved in Your Child's Schooling
Different people may have very different ideas about what it takes to be "involved" in their children's schooling. Parents of self-motivated, high-achieving students, for example, may only need to check homework and review report cards to be assured their children are on track. In contrast, parents of children who need stronger organization skills and remedial work need to be more vigilant in ensuring their children receive extra support and attention.
For both types of parents (and those in between), the fall marks a good vantage point for mapping out the key dates and practices that will mark and support student achievement in the year to come. Here is a checklist of steps to keep in mind.
Learn About the Standardized Tests Your Child Will Take
In most communities, the last few days of August bring new friends, new teachers and everything else that goes with the new school year. But by the early fall, many school districts are already administering important tests to gauge students' preparedness for the months ahead.
By going to the Department of Education Web site for your state, you can usually find out which tests will be given to students by grade level, and when. You can find out the key subject matter that will be tested and when you should expect to see your child's results.
Keep in mind that these tests are not given simply to see how your child "measures up." They're offered as a diagnostic tool for revealing academic strengths and weaknesses. Understanding these strengths and weaknesses in the fall will help you and your child prepare for the higher-stakes tests given in the spring – the results of which may be factored into decisions about grade advancement and graduation.
Know What's Expected for College Prep
If your child is a sophomore, junior or senior, make sure you're aware of the college admissions calendar. Turn to the National Association for College and Admissions Counseling (NACAC) Web site at www.nacac.com, and click on "For Students" and "Prep for College Calendar" to find out exactly what steps your child should be taking and when. Pay particular attention to when the PSAT, SAT and ACT are given, and find out about test prep opportunities that may be available through the school system, and through providers in your community.
Remember to Schedule "Extra Help" for High Achievers
Most people tend to think of after-school tutoring as a service for students who need extra help to catch up. But it can also be a boon for students who want to nurture special aptitudes and accelerate their achievement. In addition to Advanced Placement and "merit" courses, parents and students should become aware of opportunities to participate in special projects, experiential learning and mentoring to strengthen skills in subjects that will enhance students' preparation for higher education and careers.
Create a Good Home Learning Space
Studying is hard work, even more so amid the myriad distractions of television, technology and other factors that may get your child off track. Establishing a quiet, neat, well-lit space for studying will help your child focus on homework, and significantly enhance his or her ability to retain material.
Be sure to have materials such as paper, pencils and pens, a dictionary, a thesaurus and a calculator readily at hand. The seating area should be moderately comfortable – with a straight-backed chair that will keep your child relaxed but alert as opposed to soft upholstery, which can encourage drowsiness. It's also a good idea to have enough space to read and write in the same area.
Establish the Right Learning Schedule
The beginning of the school year is also a good time to set aside a designated period of time after school that is to be used only for schoolwork. Some children may complete homework more successfully right after school, leaving the rest of the late afternoon and evening for other activities. Others may need time to "wind down" before they're relaxed and focused enough to complete homework successfully.
Strike the Right Balance Between Learning and Fun
Keeping in mind the significant amount of study time most children need to make good grades, take a look at all of the other activities that your child wants to fit into his or her day. Have a frank discussion to determine which activities are most important to your child, and see if you can arrive collaboratively at a decision about which should be pursued.
Get to Know the Teachers
Finally, make sure you take time to establish a collaborative relationship with your child's teacher. By establishing the right environment at home and a strong, positive connection to what's happening at school, you can give your child a head start that will drive success all year long.

Albany - Dougherty County property owners will soon be getting something in the mail most people dread, their property tax bill. Right now, property tax bills are being printed, and should be sent out within the next week or two.
The board of tax assessors had to have special approval to send out bills, because so many property tax appeals are outstanding from the recent revaluation. The Department of Revenue has given the go ahead to collect based on the current tax digest.
Tax Director Denver Hooten said, "We had two choices. One was to either go to the court for a temporary collection order or the department of revenue which we would have had to take it to anyway, but we were in a position to take them the documentation required and we now have an order for billing."
After you receive your bill, you have 60 days to pay your taxes, though most people prefer paying by December 31st to claim it on their income taxes.

Sure the dude's a jerk but wholly s*** he's not afraid.
Anybody can lose a football game but he'll always go down as a guy who went 100%. Even if it's a jerk way.
First off, look at Andre Johnson's Arms (uppercase intentional). In a league of athletic freaks he just looks 2 levels above.
Natural human instinct when you see someone who looks like they came out of a comic book drawing is be afraid or at least pensive.
Cortland Finnegan punched the guy in the jaw over and over again after the game was decided.
The dude has balls of steel.
Now I have to chose who's my dog in the fight. By instinct I would choose Andre Johnson cause he played with honor and skill and if I could be either one I would be Mr. Johnson cause he's a beast.
But Finnegan isn't afraid of somebody bigger. And we can't know if Andre Johnson is afraid or not of somebody bigger then him cause nobody is bigger then him.
But we know Finnegan isn't afraid.
Who am I rooting for? Who do I want to be like?
I want to be like Cortland Finnegan.
This feels like a Fight Club rant.
His name is Cortland Finnegan.
His name is Cortland Finnegan. (Louder)
His name is Cortland Finnegan. (LOUDER)
(softer now)
His name is Cortland Finnegan.

Snitz Creek Brewery opened late last week in downtown Lebanon. It's an easy drive in and out, located just off of Route 422, and it's worth the trip to eat and drink local.
You can check out the full story -- but here are a few tips to help navigate your first visit:
1. Parking - You'll find ample parking in downtown Lebanon. There are nearly 100 metered spaces nearby, many of which in spitting distance to the brewpub.
2. Self-seating - Choose from counter bar seating on either side of the service counter or ample seating at wooden tables and booths of varying size throughout the restaurant.
3. Ordering - Order your food at the counter (not by the taps); staff will deliver it to your seat. Order beers at the bar, separately. No table service.
4. Best bets - For beer, I pick the Brown Trout Stout or the Woodland Warrior Pale Ale, or try four samples for $7. For food, I enjoyed the Bacon Jammer Burger, recommended to me with plain fries.
5. Local picks - When in Lebanon, eat Lebanon bologna (featured on a variety of items), Shuey's pretzels and opera fudge.
6. Hours - Snitz Creek Brewery is open daily 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, samples, pints and growler fills only; food service begins at 4 p.m. Food and drink served all day Friday and Saturday.
7. Beer to-go - Growlers are available for sale for $10 (empty). Fill it up (or bring your own) and fill with the beer of your choice for $10 to $12.

I grew up a baseball fan but the sport slipped out of my priority list a long time ago. The reasons are many and complicated but one of them involves the steroid and PED controversies over the recent years. Bonds, McGwire, Sosa, Clemens, all ended up tainting many of the fond memories of my youth watching the sport. Football has had similar problems, though to a lesser degree.
Basketball and the NBA in particular have remained relatively free of those scandals. At least thus far. One can assume that someone out there is cheating and just not getting caught. The only way to really combat that is with more advanced testing. It sounds like the league is going to ramp up those efforts soon.
Adam Silver: NBA to add HGH blood tests; denies link to Biogenesis | SI Wire
Incoming NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said in a New York Post report Tuesday morning that the league will look to add HGH blood testing of its players, a policy change that will likely come once the NBPA names a new executive director. Silver, who will replace longtime NBA commissioner David Stern in February, added that he knows it will get done and said the league is "very focused" on bringing about the change for the sake of its players
The report goes on to indicate that the NBA has denied any links to the Biogenesis scandal. Like I said, it is only a matter of time before we find out about some player that has been taking illegal supplements of some sort. Fans (and haters) will immediately point to some of the league's biggest stars like LeBron James or Dwight Howard. I guess that's going to happen, but without any proof or basis it essentially amounts to a witch hunt. Besides, if we learned anything from cycling, it is that it isn't just the hulking Jose Canseco build guys that are "doping."
There's a lot of layers to a story like this and I won't pretend to be an expert in any of them. I just thought I'd start this topic and point out that I'm crossing my fingers that we don't have any major scandals around the corner that could rob me of the joy that I have in this game that we all love so much.

Officials on both sides of the Colorado River say the idea of building a second bridge between Bullhead City and Laughlin, Nev., remains alive despite little to show for years of discussion and debate.
However, the proposed second bridge may shrink to fit available funding amid some continued grumbling about the likely site.
Many residents of Bullhead City work in casino-resorts in Laughlin. The two towns are now linked by only one bridge.
Prominent Laughlin developer Bob Bilbray says he remains skeptical about the chosen site, but Bullhead City Manager Toby Cotter says he and Laughlin Town Manager Jackie Brady confirm there's agreement about the site.
That site has cleared environmental reviews and Brady says it wouldn't make sense to move to another location and start the process anew.

Stocks waver on Spain report, Mosaic miss
NEW YORK, USA — MIXED signals on the world economy tugged on major US stock indexes Tuesday.
America's largest fertiliser company, Mosaic, said weak demand from China and India have hurt its profits. Mosaic, Dupont and stocks of other companies in the materials industry fell.
But utilities and health care stocks, where investors often retreat in a slow-growing economy, helped pull the Standard & Poor's 500 index above the break-even mark.
The S&P 500 index gained 1.26 to close at 1,445.75. The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 32.75 points to 13,482.36. Dupont led the Dow lower, sinking 86 cents to US$49.50.
The market could remain quiet until the government gives its monthly jobs report on Friday, said Paul Zemsky, chief investment officer of multi-asset strategies at ING Investment Management.
Zemsky said a surprise swing up or down "could change the direction of the stock market and the Presidential election."
Indexes took a turn lower at midday after Spain's prime minister said that he's not preparing a request for a bailout loan. Traders have been anticipating that the Spanish government would ask for help for nearly a month. Spain needs to ask for money from Europe's bailout fund before the European Central Bank can start buying Spanish government bonds.
Mosaic reported net income and sales early Tuesday that fell short of analysts' estimates. The company blamed slumping demand for its fertiliser overseas as well as hurricanes for slower production. The results pushed the company's stock down US$2.25 to US$55.76.
In other trading, the NASDAQ composite rose 6.51 points to 3,120.04.
The yield on the benchmark 10-year US Treasury note slipped to 1.61 per cent from 1.63 per cent, late Monday, after Spain's Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, said a bailout request wasn't coming.
European markets closed slightly lower before Rajoy spoke. Benchmark stock indexes fell 0.3 per cent in Germany, 0.2 per cent in Britain and 0.6 per cent in France. Borrowing costs fell for Spain and Italy.
Most car makers reported better sales for September. But sales for US automakers were mostly flat. General Motors (GM) reported a slight increase in sales from a year earlier, but its stock gained 3 per cent after the hedge fund manager David Einhorn recommended it. GM rose 59 cents to US$23.68.
Core Logic, a private provider of real estate data, said US home prices in August rose 4.6 per cent compared with the same month last year. Prices also rose 0.3 per cent from July, the sixth consecutive month of gains.
Other gauges of the housing market have improved in recent months, including home sales.
On Monday, the manufacturing survey from the Institute for Supply Management also showed improvement. ISM's main index nosed above 50, a reading that signals growth. The index had been below 50 from June through August.
Investors are also looking ahead to quarterly earnings, which begin in earnest when the aluminium company Alcoa reports results Oct. 9.

The Movie "Stripper: Natasha Kizmet" That We Are In Is A Big Hit On Netflix
We are happy for Natasha Kizmet and the new cult like success of the movie. The Tony Batman's A Entrainment News has been keeping a close eye on the movie since it hit Netflix and we are pretty happy about all the emails we are getting.We shot in Miami, some while at the Exxxotica Expo Miami. Our part is pretty funny, but were not sure about the Emmy talk, LOL….. Read all about it below….
Natasha Kizmet's cult movie reaches a new audience with Netflix video release
Hollywood, California – Netflix adds the independent comedy release, 'Stripper: Natasha Kizmet' to their popular streaming video rental service.
'Stripper: Natasha Kizmet' is a broad comedy, shot in a mocumentary style, that follows a naive, strikingly beautiful girl from Uzbekistan, who comes to America seeking fame and fortune as the producer and star of a belly dancing concert tour. Instead of finding her golden ticket to Hollywood stardom, she takes a comedic detour through a world inhabited by sleazy photographers, malevolent strip-club owners and pimps, a sex-addicted preacher, and an unexpected side-trip to a porn convention, which lands her in the cloying clutches of adult entertainment personalities, including Tony Batman and Ron Jeremy.
Director and screen writer, Michael Drumm co-produced the mocumentary with Kizmet, who also shares writing credits. 'Stripper: Natasha Kizmet' has achieved cult movie status, since its release in 2009. The title garnered Kismet the "Silver Screen Best Actress Award" from The Nevada Film Festival. The movie was also featured in the 2010 Saint Petersburg Nomadic Tendencies Film Festival and the Hollywood Mock Film Fest in 2011.
The film's long list of co-stars and featured characters include Batman, Carlo Galliano, Rod Halmshaw, Jeremy, Kimberly Kole and Jennifer Leahy, among many other adult performer cameos.
Batman recalls, "Michael Drumm spotted Natasha on the floor with me at the 2009 Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas. We'd struck up a friendship at one of the hotel parties, after she congratulated me on my Screaming O Road Show emcee work, which landed me on Oxygen's 'Bad Girls Club'. The following day, Natasha came along with me while I was doing interviews with the models and porn stars at the show, for my A! Entertainment broadcast. She was interested in doing some interviews, so I handed her the microphone. Producer Michael Drumm saw something special in her improvisational skills while she was doing those interviews and asked, 'Why don't we make a movie about you?' He and Natasha wrote a part in the movie for me, because we played off each other so well."
Amazon.com reviewer, Ben Arispe writes, "This was a great movie. I enjoyed Natasha being so innocent and funny! Natasha narrates the entire movie, and for those of you who like beautiful women with foreign accents, this is a definite plus! Natasha comes across as very personable and sweet, and for those funny parts in the movie she's a very good sport!"
'Stripper: Natasha Kizmet' is un-rated due to adult content and multiple topless scenes. A trailer is available at http://youtu.be/dOqEpjwLjKc.
