Well hey this is my best friend Valerie Anne Brown. We were meant to be best friends. We first met in girl scouts, she was the girl who cried because she didn't know any of us so her mom pulled her out of the class(haha). We became friends in kindergarten and then I moved in 1st grade so we were separated and didn't keep in touch. We saw each other again in 2nd grade at a family party. We didn't know we were related in anyway but her uncle married my aunt. We hung out the entire party making fun of our cousins and riding a mini Thomas the train set.
After that I didn't see her again. My father and mother got separated and so did hers so we both didn't associate with that side of the family. I moved again. In 7th grade I was a strange girl who had friends but I was known as that dumb emo girl who wore black and listened to My Chemical Romance and Panic! At the Disco. It was the middle of the year and a new girl who was wearing an Angels in Airwaves shirt came into my history class and sat next to me. It was Valerie. I thought she looked oddly familiar so I asked if she was my cousins, cousin. She laughed and we instantly became best friends again. 8th grade Valerie switched schools but still lived in the same town as me. We would randomly see each other but we weren't really best friends. At the end of 8th grade we started hanging out again, doing our thing that we've done since day one…talking about music, making fun of people, and laughing at this one girl who we pretended to be friends with. I convinced her to go to the same trade school as me.
That summer before high school was the best summer with her. We are the same person. We hate people, life, and have had a terrible upbringing together. Every since that we have been best friend and have never left each others side. I will love her forever. Without her I wouldn't had made it this far. She saved my life on many occasions and has been there for me during everything. I love with her and she is like my sister. Fuck with her, you fuck with me.

Tech was playing the University of North Carolina. Ham went up for a dunk and shattered the backboard shifting the momentum and put the Red Raiders through to the first Sweet Sixteen in Texas Tech history. The picture ran on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Later that year he won the NCAA slam dunk contest.
October 1, 1996 Ham was signed as a free agent for the Denver Nuggets. In 1997 He was then traded by to the Indiana Pacers for Jerome Allen on February 1997. Ham then signed as free agent with the Washington Wizards (1997), Milwaukee Bucks (1999), Atlanta Hawks (2002) and Detroit Pistons (2003). Ham was a member of the champion Detroit Pistons team. Ham played for eight seasons averaging 2.7 Points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.8 fouls in 12.4 min., .598 FG, and .494 FT shooting. In 2006 Ham enlisted in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) as an import on Talk N' Text Phone Pals, averaging 16 points for PBA Fiesta conference playoffs. Over eight season's Ham was estimated to have a $ 6.58 million NBA career.
Ham served as a studio analyst for Fox Sports Southwest as the Mavericks made a playoff run in 2006. He was then drafted third overall in the 2007 NBA D-League draft by the Albuquerque Thunderbirds. He was named assistant coach for the Thunderbirds in 2008. In 2010 Ham is currently the head coach of the Thunderbirds.

London 2012 could boost the UK's economy by at least £13bn over the next four years, claimed Prime Minister David Cameron. And a report from Lloyds TSB has claimed that the Olympics will deliver a £16.5bn boost to the UK economy by 2017 and help create the equivalent of 62,200 jobs.
"This has re-iterated the potential long-term benefits of this amazing event coming to London," commented Phil Smith CEO Cisco UK and Ireland.
"We've already begun to see the vital role the Games is playing in our economy. According to figures published back in 2011 by the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA), 1,200 previously unemployed local people gained work on the Olympic Park. Additionally, more than 3,000 training places have been generated and 408 apprentices have been offered the opportunity to work on the Games."
As a supporter of London 2012, Cisco is working on a series of initiatives to help benefit the country in the long term. "Our British Innovation Gateway (BIG) aims to support today's entrepreneurs by providing the necessary resources for the start-up and SME community to flourish," added Smith.
"In addition, we have been working in partnership with STEMNet to enable young people all over the UK to take their first steps towards realising a career in technology and new media. Initiatives like the STEM Challenges and the Cisco Networking Academy programme aim to use London 2012 to inspire young people to study science and maths, developing their skill set and improving their long-term career opportunities.
"We see London 2012 as the start, but not the finish. We believe the Games can act as a platform for growth which spans far beyond summer next year. As long as Britain capitalises on this amazing opportunity, the London 2012 Games are sure to play an integral role in the UK's sustainable prosperity and long-term growth."

Blood evidence is next focus in trial of Dumont man accused of killing wife
The murder trial of a Dumont man accused of beating his wife with a club and fatally stabbing her with a fishing knife will continue next week in Hackensack with testimony from State Police lab technicians.
The lab experts are expected to testify about blood samples taken from the weapons that Peter Shanley is accused of using on April 10, 2010, against his wife, Debra.
Bergen County prosecutors say Shanley, 60, attacked his wife of 35 years during an argument in their home, angered by suspicions that she was having an affair. Debra Shanley, who was a teacher in the Bergenfield school district, had bought a motorcycle, joined a riders' group and began spending less time at home — a change that angered Peter Shanley so much that he once sawed off the bike's handlebars, they said.
Defense attorneys argue that Peter Shanley was frustrated when his wife grew distant over the course of several months. Shanley attacked his wife after she threw a lamp at him, the attorneys said, arguing that he was in an unusual state of mind at the time.
Peter Shanley is charged with murder and faces life in prison. The argument by his attorneys, if successful, could get him instead a manslaughter conviction, which carries a maximum of 10 years in prison.
The trial, which opened Dec. 4 in state Superior Court in Hackensack, will resume Tuesday.

In the real world, Graphic User Interfaces (GUI) are often meant to be simple, usable, and should not distract the user's experience. However, GUIs on the silver screen are often made to depict an exaggerated view of the action and are usually designed to thrill the audience with suspense.
Screenshot from the Jurassic Park DVD (Universal)
Ok, I'll admit I'm a complete nerd when it comes to interfaces… and no, I haven't designed one (at least not yet!). So this blog post is mainly pointed towards the obscure art of designing interfaces for movies. I've included only a couple of movies from the past and present of which I thought had strong screen design but I have also included some links at the end of the article for you to learn more on the subject.
Past: Jurassic Park (1993)
Ever since I was a kid, I've been obsessed with movies. Not necessarily for their actual content but for the interface graphics that appear in them. A classic example for me was Jurassic Park. I can't really explain why I became obsessed with that movie's screen design but every time I watched it, I always had the desire to have the same computers (SGi Crimson & Apple Quadra) and pretend that I was Samuel L. Jackson dealing with the mess (I know, I know… my childhood was sort of boring).

Dennis Nedry's sabotage being executed
"It's a UNIX system… I know this!"
I always thought that the 3D UNIX interface depicted in the final minutes of the movie was a fake one (refer to the picture above). However, upon doing some research, I stumbled upon a nice little discovery; apparently, the GUI was a real one. The file system interface, File System Navigator (FSN), was an actual demo that had been released by Silicon Graphics back in the early 90s and it ran under SGi's IRIX platform:
Real-world: Screenshot of the FSN IRIX interface
What's interesting about watching movies while having obsessions with GUIs is that sometimes I often catch little mistakes here and there (and I'm sure we all do). There is a scene where Dennis Nedry (the chubby guy from Seinfeld) is talking to someone near the dock during a thunderstorm. I could clearly see that it wasn't a live feed but a .mov QuickTime movie being played back.
Here you can clearly see that the movie is a Quicktime .mov being played and synched with the dialogue from Dennis Nedry (Wayne Knight)
Present: Avatar (2009)
I should say that I haven't really gone out to the movies lately. The main reason is due to the fact that Hollywood movies don't really entice me all that much anymore. However, Avatar was a must see for me because I'm a self-proclaimed 3D whore. The movie itself was not that bad but I didn't really care much on the storyline; the interfaces (and 3D) were the real attraction for me.
Screenshot of the Blu-ray edition of Avatar (20th Century Fox)
After the half-hour mark, I was in heaven; watching how the interfaces worked in true 3D was mind-blowing. Everything was beautifully executed, from the graphics placed in 3D space on the webcam to the tablets and rotating computer workstations.
Avatar: Webcam transmission — Note: The typography and graphic elements of the webcam transmission live on 3D space.
Avatar: I was in awe after drooling over this 3D holographic interface
The genius behind all of the work done for Avatar is Neil Huxley, an art director from the visual effects house known as Prime Focus.
The overall art direction for this movie was obvious. Since most screen designs in this movie are within the context of a military operation, they were rendered to resemble military interfaces such as Heads Up Displays (HUD) and Digital Display Indicators (DDI) found in modern military aircraft.

Avatar: Rotating HUD workstation
There's a great interview on Neil Huxley over at Inventing Interactive explaining the rationale and process. You can read more about him here:
Additional notes
There's a lot of great interface designers out there and I might as well point out some of the most recognized faces out there.
Imaginary Forces was responsible for the "Machine Vision" interface design seen in Terminator: Salvation. While I haven't seen this movie yet, I can tell that a great amount of detail and effort was put into the screen design of this movie.
Machine Vision in Terminator: Salvation
I remember when Mark Coleran's reel appeared for the first time in Motionographer, it spread like wildfire across social networks. Coleran is a celebrity figure when it comes to screen design. His interfaces are extremely intricate and detailed and it's a shame that they usually show them for a couple of seconds in the movies they appear in.

You can read an interview of Coleran's process and techniques here:
I hope you enjoyed this article. I will be writing another article concerning other types of interfaces soon. Stay tuned.

This season's crop of rookie talent is exceptional.
A blend of forwards, defencemen and goalies will vie for the Calder Trophy, with familiar names and a few surprises considered among our annual Top 10 list.
No. 10: Jeff Skinner
The 18-year-old Carolina forward enjoyed a spectacular training camp. Skinner is considered physically ready for the NHL and will be given tons of playing time to display an offensive talent that saw him score 70 goals in 74 games last season with the OHL's Kitchener Rangers.
No. 9: Jonathan Bernier
The 22-year-old Los Angeles goaltender may be the best of a strong rookie goalie contingent. Bernier has been brought along slowly and is now challenging Jonathan Quick for the Kings' starting job.
No. 8: Oliver Ekman-Larson
The 19-year-old Swede has enjoyed a strong camp with Phoenix and is expected to earn time with the Coyotes on the power play. Ekman-Larson had 33 points in Sweden's second-best league last year.
No. 7: John Carlson
The Capitals have a 20-year-old defenceman who knows how to win. Carlson helped the U.S beat Canada at the World Junior Championship and then won a Calder Cup AHL championship with the Hershey Bears.
No. 6: Magnus Paajarvi
Considered the be the most mature of Edmonton's rookie trio, Paajarvi is highly skilled and has no fear going into the tough areas on the ice. Length of NHL season could wear down the 19-year-old.
No. 5: Tyler Seguin
Boston will experiment with the No. 2 overall draft pick at both centre and the wing. Seguin is exceptionally skilled, but the 18-year-old needs time to work on defensive responsibilities.
No. 4: Jordan Eberle
The vision and scoring ability demonstrated at the junior and American Hockey League shows the 20-year-old is ready to be a full-time NHL player.
No. 3: Taylor Hall
Transitioning from CHL superstar to NHL regular has proven difficult for some 18-year-olds. But the two-time Memorial Cup MVP and No. 1 draft pick has the power and immense talent to make the jump with Edmonton.
No. 2: Tyler Ennis
Buffalo's rookie turned 21 on Wednesday. After recording nine points in 10 NHL games last season, it's easy to see why some regard him as a pre-season favourite for rookie of the year.
And finally...No. 1: P.K. Subban (or "Prime Time" as teammate Mike Cammalleri calls him)
The Montreal defenceman tops this year's Top 10 list. Subban replaced the injured Andrei Markov on the Habs' blueline in the postseason and helped Montreal reach the Eastern Conference Final. Subban handled the pressure with poise and an abundance of energy and will be given added responsibilities as a 21-year-old this season.

Abstract: Basophil and mast cell mediator release is a central feature of both acute and chronic allergic reactions. However, little is known of the biochemical nature of signal transduction in the human cells of this type. This proposal focuses on studies which will elucidate some of the important biochemical events in both IgE mediated and univalent hormone induced secretion. The primary goals of these studies is to elucidate the mechanisms of desensitization although significant effort will also be applied towards understanding activation events. In particular, the role of cytosolic calcium elevations and protein kinase C in activation and desensitization will be further examined. We have demonstrated that IgE-mediated histamine release in both human basophils and lung mast cells is accompanied by the increased activity of membrane associated protein kinase C and elevations in cytosolic calcium. Detailed studies suggest that desensitization processes are specific for the mediator being examined and that for regulating the extent of degranulation (histamine release), the basophil and mast cell regulate the activation of protein kinase C rather than elevations in cytosolic calcium. Therefore, part of this proposal seeks to understand in greater detail the relationship between PKC activation and histamine release, the multiple roles PKC may play in regulating mediator release and whether the transient activation in PKC activity results from the specific regulation of diacylglycerol levels. A series of exploratory experiments are proposed to determine whether tyrosine kinase activity plays a role in desensitization. Preliminary evidence also suggests that leukotriene release, unlike histamine release, is controlled by the down-regulation of the calcium response. The proposed studies will initially examine the relationship between down-regulation of the calcium response and down- regulation of leukotriene release. A second primary area of study will be on the relationship between calcium oscillations observed in single cells and subsequent mediator release. Several methods are proposed to measure single cell degranulation in an effort to correlate this end point with the early oscillatory changes in cytosolic calcium. In addition, the relationship between calcium oscillations and leukotriene release will be examined. A third aim of this proposal is to study the relationship between desensitization events that affect the early mediators (histamine and leukotrienes) and cytokine secretion which occurs much later in the secretory response. Since cytokine release appears dependent on mRNA accumulation, initial studies will focus on the mechanisms of mRNA accumulation.

Time for a stadium deal
The brownfield in Arden Hills remains the best site for a new Minnesota Vikings stadium. As debate developed this year, the venue change to various poorly vetted Minneapolis sites was a concession to power politics — as was the increase in the proposed state contribution from not-a-penny-more-than-$300-milllion for a Ramsey County site to nearly $400 million for one in Minneapolis.

Longmont area gained jobs in 2012
Last Updated: 16:38 January 15, 2013
A total of 905 new jobs were created in 2012. Of those, 18 new companies that came to the area brought 244 new jobs, and 63 existing companies added 661 new jobs, according to figures released by the Longmont Area Economic Council on Monday.
At the same time, 12 companies closed or relocated out of the Longmont area in 2012, creating a loss of 195 jobs, according to the LAEC's figures. An additional 59 existing companies cut 546 jobs.
The 18 companies new to the Longmont area are Advanced Design & Manufacturing LLC, Akonia Holographics LLC; Aspen Laser & Technologies Inc.; A-Tek Inc.; Bergans USA LLC; BluIP; Boomerang Enterprises Inc.; Boulder Systems Design Inc.; Claremont Foods LLC; Denovo LLC; Freedom Works Foods LLC; Genius Labs by vAuto; Goddess Garden; Grace Design; Smart Storage Systems Inc.; Two Rivers Foods, doing business as SolBites Inc.; Enterprise Travel Systems Inc.; and Miyota Development Center of America Inc.
The 12 companies in the Longmont area that closed in 2012 were Chemizon; Ericsson Inc.; Pillar Data Systems Inc., bought by Oracle (Nasdaq: ORCL); Premier Manufacturing; CBeyond Inc.; Farragut Systems Inc.; Abound Solar Inc.; Entersolve Inc.; Reveal Systems Inc.; Elemetric LLC; Noble Engineering Inc. and Onsemble LLC.
The Longmont area's commercial real estate vacancy rate stands at 18.2 percent, with 1.58 million square feet available at the end of 2012, according to the LAEC's statistics. Commercial real estate vacancy rates were at 17.4 percent at the end of 2011, with 1.49 million square feet available.
The majority of the increase in vacancy came as a result of the closing of Longmont's downtown Butterball turkey packaging facility in December 2011, the LAEC said in a press statement.
In 2012, the LAEC met with 52 prospective company representatives, down slightly from the 55 with whom the economic group worked in 2011.

Right out of the box, I notice what I thought was a glaring inconsistency in the Trek world when in the trailer, in the first scene, The young Kirk is driving a sportscar like a pro. Undoubtably due to his love for antiques. That much makes sense, but this was not an automatic transmission. It was a standard.
Now fast forward to TOS episode "A Piece of the Action". Kirk liberates a car and drives Spock a few blocks down the street almost giving them both whiplash. Spock commends Kirk on being an excellent Starship captain, but a lousy cab driver or something to that effect. Kirk didn't understand the concept of gears at all, noting that he had heard about or read about them someplace.
I know it was a decade or so later in his life, but how will they explain his total loss of memory regarding driving a standard.
Anybody else notice anything that doesn't seem to add up?
Even without the alternate universe explanation, examples like the one above do NOT bother me one bit. Can kirk drive a car or not? Not something I consider "canon", just minor details that were written in order to add humor (or in the case of the new movie, action) to an episode. There are lots of these minor details that are really NOT worth scrutinizing.

The controversy over self exams has surfaced once again, as a new study suggests they provide no significant benefit. We asked a local survivor and a physician for a perspective.
Jackie Brown is both a breast cancer survivor, and the director of Komen For The Cure of Southern Nevada -- a partner in our Buddy Check-8 program. She says the ongoing arguments about breast self-exams offer a frustrating challenge that comes with a silver lining.
"We're out there talking about the importance of early detection and know your body and do your breast self exams and get your clinical breast exams. And it gets frustrating that a study will come out and get everyone confused. But the flip side is, it gets women to talk about it. We get the phone calls. We get to have the dialogue with these women, and they get to understand how important it really is to know your body and do your breast self exams," said Brown.
Brown believes that although self exams lack scientific evidence proving their value, they still have a place in women's health.
Las Vegas oncologist, Heather Allen agrees. At the same time, she understands concerns that finding a lump could lead to an unnecessary biopsy. And a self exam may not find cancer at an early stage. There are still, however, unanswered questions.
"None of these studies that they looked at when they were saying do it or don't do it, ever really looked at women who were considered to be high risk. Maybe in that group of women it does make a difference," said Dr. Allen.
Dr. Allen maintains it will always be to a woman's advantage and empowerment to be aware of changes in her own body. "So that if they ever do feel something different, they will say -- wait a minute, I know that wasn't there. So I think people are not saying whole heartedly saying, don't even bother checking your breast, absolutely not."
Allen points out that while there's no question that mammograms are useful in picking up tumors, they too are imperfect. And that women should combine the various forms of detection.

Three national organizations have expressed their gratitude to the Diocese of Raleigh for its generous response to special collections recently conducted in parishes.
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development received $81,866.04; the 2008 Catholic Home Missions Appeal contribution totaled $91,445.18; and the Retirement Fund for Religious received $188,005.13.
In a letter to Bishop Michael F. Burbidge, Sister Janice Bader, CCPS, Executive Director of the Retirement Fund, noted how the Diocesan contributions for all the years of the collection from the Diocese of Raleigh total $3,311,511.85. "You can surely rely on the prayer of the over 37,000 religious now over the age of 70 and the ever increasing numbers of religious who will be retiring very soon," Sister Bader wrote.
Bishop Michael W. Warfel, Chair of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops Subcommittee on Catholic Home Missions, expressed thanks noting that the donations for the appeal help small dioceses without significant reserves to carry on their mission of serving their people, evangelizing and training future priests.
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development also expressed appreciation for the ongoing support of the Diocese. The Campaign is the domestic anti-poverty, social justice program of the U.S. Bishops.
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops supports 12 national collections each year with each year to support the Church's work of social justice, evangelization, education and national and local institutional development, at home and abroad. Learn more about the national collections at the USCCB web site.

Jamesville-DeWitt jumped to a 16-point lead in the first quarter and defeated Harborfields 66-51 in New York's Class A final on Sunday afternoon at the Glens Falls Civic Center
It was the fourth straight state title for Jamesville-DeWitt, tying a state record.
Dajuan Coleman scored 22 pounts and had 16 rebounds and was named tournament most valuable player.
Jamesville-DeWitt (22-3) had control early, leading 25-9 after the first quarter and 40-20 at halftime.
Harborfields (21-3) had won its past 18 games, but Coleman and Cavanaugh (22 points) ended up being too much for the Greenlawn-based team.
Among those in attendance was University of Kentucky head coach John Calipari. His main interest was Coleman, according to Alex Kline of the TheRecruitScoop.com. Coleman will return with to Jamesville-DeWitt next season along with fellow junior Cavanaugh with the possibility to guide their team to a state record fifth straight championship.
Jamesville-DeWitt tied the state record for consecutive state titles with four, also held by Amityville (2000-03). Coincidentally, Amityville's head coach then and now, Jack Agostino, is the brother of Harborfields' head coach, Chris Agostino. The younger brother wasn't able to prevent the record-tying effort.
Nick Fessenden (18 points) and Matt McLeod (17 points) were Harborfields' leading scorers.

Ron Wyden on Technology
Democratic Sr Senator (OR)
Wyden voted against the Wall Street bailout and said he favors the federal government ending tax breaks to companies that ship jobs overseas. He also supports limiting taxes on Internet-based companies.
Huffman argued that these proposals are too small when the country faces double-digit unemployment and a terribly slow recovery. He said Wyden's great mistake was voting for the stimulus bill because those funds will never be returned to taxpayers.
At one point, Wyden was shown a television ad he supported that claimed Huffman defended the Wall Street bailout and believes in privatizing Social Security. When asked to comment on the negative ad, Wyden said it was the exception and not the rule of his campaign to run such an ad.
Huffman said the ad was full of lies and half-truths.
Opponent's Argument for voting No (Cnet.com): Online retailers are objecting to S.743, saying it's unreasonable to expect small businesses to comply with the detailed--and sometimes conflicting--regulations of nearly 10,000 government tax collectors. S.743 caps years of lobbying by the National Retail Federation and the Retail Industry Leaders Association, which represent big box stores. President Obama also supports the bill.
Proponent's Argument for voting Yes: Sen. COLLINS. This bill rectifies a fundamental unfairness in our current system. Right now, Main Street businesses have to collect sales taxes on every transaction, but outbecause -of-state Internet sellers don't have to charge this tax, they enjoy a price advantage over the mom-and-pop businesses. This bill would allow States to collect sales taxes on Internet sales, thereby leveling the playing field with Main Street businesses. This bill does not authorize any new or higher tax, nor does it impose an Internet tax. It simply helps ensure that taxes already owed are paid.
Opponent's Argument for voting No: Sen. WYDEN: This bill takes a function that is now vested in government--State tax collection--and outsources that function to small online retailers. The proponents say it is not going to be hard for small businesses to handle this--via a lot of new computer software and the like. It is, in fact, not so simple. There are more than 5,000 taxing jurisdictions in our country. Some of them give very different treatment for products and services that are almost identical.
Wyden says, "Wyden (D-OR)"
Veto message from President Bush:
This bill lacks fiscal discipline. I fully support funding for water resources projects that will yield high economic and environmental returns. Each year my budget has proposed reasonable and responsible funding, including $4.9 billion for 2008, to support the Army Corps of Engineers' main missions. However, this authorization bill costs over $23 billion. This is not fiscally responsible, particularly when local communities have been waiting for funding for projects already in the pipeline. The bill's excessive authorization for over 900 projects and programs exacerbates the massive backlog of ongoing Corps construction projects, which will require an additional $38 billion in future appropriations to complete. This bill does not set priorities. I urge the Congress to send me a fiscally responsible bill that sets priorities.
Founded in the spring of 1996, the Congressional Internet Caucus is a bipartisan group of over 150 members of the House and Senate working to educate their colleagues about the promise and potential of the Internet. The Caucus also encourages Members to utilize the Internet in communications with constituents and supports efforts to put more government documents online. The Internet Caucus Advisory Committee and the Internet Education Foundation host regular events and forums for policymakers, the press, and the public to discuss important Internet-related policy issues.
Permanent Internet Tax Freedom Act of 2007 - Amends the Internet Tax Freedom Act to make permanent the ban on state and local taxation of Internet access and on multiple or discriminatory taxes on electronic commerce.
Related bills: H.R.743, H.R.1077, H.R.3678, S.156.
Sen. DORGAN. "The issue of Internet freedom is also known as net neutrality. I have long fought in Congress against media concentration, to prevent the consolidation of control over what Americans see in the media. Now, Americans face an equally great threat to the democratic vehicle of the Internet, which we have always taken for granted as an open and free engine for creative growth.
"The Internet became a robust engine of economic development by enabling anyone with a good idea to connect to consumers and compete on a level playing field for consumers' business. The marketplace picked winners and losers, and not some central gatekeeper.
"But now we face a situation where the FCC has removed nondiscrimination rules that applied to Internet providers for years. Broadband operators soon thereafter announced their interest in acting in discriminatory ways, planning to create tiers on the Internet that could restrict content providers' access to the Internet unless they pay extra for faster speeds or better service. Under their plan, the Internet would become a new world where those content providers who can afford to pay special fees would have better access to consumers.
"This fundamentally changes the way the Internet has operated and threaten to derail the democratic nature of the Internet. American consumers and businesses will be worse off for it. Today we introduce the Internet Freedom Preservation Act to ensure that the Internet remains a platform that spawns innovation and economic development for generations to come."
Congressional Summary:Disapproves the rule submitted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on February 22, 2008, relating to broadcast media ownership. Declares that the rule shall have no force or effect.
Proponents' Argument in Favor:Sen. DORGAN: The FCC loosened the ban on cross-ownership of newspapers and broadcast stations. We seek with this resolution of disapproval to reverse the FCC's fast march to ease media ownership rules. The FCC has taken a series of destructive actions in the past two decades that I believe have undermined the public interest. [Now they have given] a further green light to media concentration.
The FCC voted to allow cross-ownership of newspapers and broadcast stations in the top 20 markets, with loopholes for mergers outside of the top 20 markets. The newspapers would be allowed to buy stations ranked above fifth and above.
The rule change was framed as a modest compromise. But make no mistake, this is a big deal. As much as 44% of the population lives in the top 20 markets. The last time the FCC tried to do this, in 2003, the Senate voted to block it.
This rule will undercut localism and diversity of ownership around the country. Studies show that removing the ban on newspaper/broadcast cross-ownership results in a net loss in the amount of local news produced in the market as a whole. In addition, while the FCC suggests that cross-ownership is necessary to save failing newspapers, the publicly traded newspapers earn annual rates of return between 16% and 18%.
This Resolution of Disapproval will ensure this rule change has no effect. This is again a bipartisan effort to stop the FCC from destroying the local interests that we have always felt must be a part of broadcasting.

Have anybody else had any problems with CSendAppUi lately. I just noticed that I really can't get it working right. Basically I have been trying to use it with both two CreateAndSendMessageL functions. I also tried to use CreateAndSendMessagePopupQueryL function.
For all of these IR & BT works just fine without any problems, but MMS Leaves with -1 error.
I discovered the error after I installed SDK Version 1.0, I didn't remove the 0.9, so that might be the problem also.
I was also having some problems crypting stores. Everything worked fine in emulator (v0.9), but in the device (sw 4.39) the password didn't seem to match anymore. I haven't got back to solving this problem yet, but propably will have to deal with it next week, so have anybody else had any problems with crypted stream and is there any differences between crypting in emulator compared to cryting in real device ?

Well unfortunately for our boys, they are not quite the caliber of team that gets chosen to play on Christmas Day, so the Thunder will return to action tonight after getting Christmas Day off. The team is traveling to Detroit for the first time since the relocation, and the Pistons likely aren't going to roll over and begin their new history against this OKC team at 0-1.
The Thunder continue to play better of late, but even still, are having a hard time getting to all zeros and earning that big W. The teams last 3 efforts have all been really competitive for the Thunder against good teams, save for maybe against struggling Toronto, but the Thunder did pull the W in that one. The other two however, were against one of the leagues best teams, the Cleveland Cavaliers, and on Tuesday, the Atlanta Hawks. In both games the Thunder stayed competitive throughout and just let the opposing team slip away during the 4th quarter.
If the Thunder are to get a win tonight, they are going to need to outrebound the Pistons. If they can't beat them on the boards, they won't be able to win this game. The other key is going to be the Thunder shooting percentage, as the Pistons defense tends to force a lot of missed shots. So if we can dominate the boards on the defensive end, and get the ball in the hoop on the offensive end consistantly, they will definitely put themselves in position to take a win on the road.
Tipoff: 7pm Local Time.

Security measures for Sochi are unprecedented, concerns still remain: Queen's University expert
Queen's University postdoctoral fellow Adam Molnar (Surveillance Studies Centre) is available to comment on counter-terrorism initiatives, the policing of political protest, civilian-military partnerships, the private security industry, as well as the wider surveillance and privacy implications of security and policing measures in advance of the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
Olympic cities are now a highly securitized fortress, with strict access controls and checkpoints, the use of extensive surveillance technologies such as drones, and, like other events, are showcasing the unprecedented use military forces in domestic urban environments.
"The Sochi 2014 Olympics are characteristic of the massive security and policing build-up seen at other major sporting events today, but even with these unprecedented security measures in place, a significant concern will remain in Russia," says Mr. Molnar. "Long after the Olympic spotlight has moved on, Russia's citizens will be dealing with this extreme security apparatus for many years, and possibly decades, to come."

Many people in the area will tell you that going to see the Crooks Christmas Holiday light display used to be a tradition for them. Many people used to get in the car and head out to Crooks to check out the thousands of Christmas lights dancing to music at the home of Joe Noe. Back in 2006 Noe started using his impressive light display to raise money for Make-A-Wish of South Dakota. Over time traffic grew pretty heavy around the Noe home and in 2010 Noe moved his light display inside at the Western Mall in Sioux Falls.
The show runs at the Western Mall from 5:30pm to 9:30pm every day. The show runs from Thanksgiving Day through New Years Day. The show is open on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Years Day.
Over the years this display has raised a staggering amount of money for Make-A-Wish of South Dakota. $16,349 in 2006, $31,800 in 2007, $25,238 in 2008, $22,700 in 2009, $27,220 in 2010, and $25,941 in 2011. Organizers say that's nearly $150,000 raised for Make-A-Wish of South Dakota. That money goes to help kids with life-threatening diseases right here in South Dakota. For each wish, organizers say they need to raise about $5,000.
To donate you can just slip your donations in the boxes near the light display. You can also use the link on the left side of your page to donate online.
Watch the KSFY Morning News Wednesday morning to get a live look from the Christmas at the Western Mall light display.

Lee County - - Rescued animals in Lee County don't have an air-conditioned facility to keep cool in and county workers want to change that.
A lack of funding has prevented Lee County's Animal Control puppies and dogs from having an in-door facility. The group held a yard sale today to bring in some cash.
"This is a fundraiser to build an in-closed facility for our animals such as Shelby and Sheeba. These are 2 of the puppies this yard sale will actually benefit. Right now, we have outside kennels but were trying to get an inside facility built and any funds we raise from this yard sale will go towards the building fund," says Catherine Gammage.
The group plans to hold another yard sale soon.
If you'd like to donate to this cause, just contact Lee County Animal Control.

Mighty Mo also talks about his MMA fight with Strikeforce's Josh Barnett and the free low blow that Barnett allowed him after delivering one of his own during the fight.
off topic, but hey bruno, do you have a way to contact you. i came accross a cool video and wasnt sure if u might want to put it on here if it wasnt already posted.
Bruno: just put a link in a comment and I will take a look.
I would totally plow that woman.
I think Rick Roufus is older than Chuck Norris.
We'd all plow her. Her takedown defense sucks and she walks around at 90lb, cuts down to 75lb. Double-leg that s***.
