There is no clear universally accepted definition or law of privacy in Canada. As a result, the courts have generally taken the view that a free-standing right to privacy does not in fact exist. For journalists, this has often created confusion about what newsgathering techniques are acceptable, writes J-Source's law editor Thomas Rose.
Is reporting on court cases in real-time in the public interest, or does it have the potential to do more harm than good? How does adding a real-time element change the role of a court reporter? What are the legal limitations around reporting directly from inside the courtroom? Regardless of how you slice it, court reporting is complicated – but especially so in real-time. For this week's Scribble Chat, we'll be tackling these issues and more. Will we conclude the whole damn system's out of order? Join the discussion to find out.
Allegations that two Canadian citizens planned to explode homemade devices similar to the kind used in the Boston marathon bombing during Canada Day celebrations at the B.C. legislature in Victoria is shocking. Does that justify the actions of journalists who entered the apartment of the two suspects this week, rummaged through their private belongings, took photographs of those belongings and subsequently splashed some of those photos on the front pages of such news outlets across the country? Law Editor Thomas Rose has more on the legal and ethical dimensions of such behaviour.
Last week's stories about a man who appears to be Toronto Mayor Rob Ford smoking what might be crack, raises just about every journalistic issue around responsible reporting and libel that there is. Western journalism professor Paul Benedetti says the incident provides a perfect teaching example about what journalists can and cannot say to avoid a libel court case.
Brian Burke says anonymous bloggers have deliberately set out to ruin his good name. As his defamation suit against those bloggers goes forward, perhaps it is time to begin a discussion about whether internet anonymity should be restricted, writes J-Source law editor Thomas Rose.
Quebec is the latest jurisdiction to issue a protocol on the use of electronic devices by reporters and lawyers inside a courtroom, sparking some heated but predictable responses. Is this a violation of a citizen's right to stay informed? Does it impinge freedom of expression? Does it tarnish the principle of a fair and open trial?
As of Monday, no one will be able to email, tweet or text from inside Quebec courtrooms without the consent of the judge. The move runs contrary to recent changes made in Ontario, B.C., Saskatchewan, Newfoundland and Labrador, where the courts sanctioned the use of electronic devices by lawyers and journalists during court proceedings.
A journalist in the rural community of Clinton, Ont. claims a local councillor tried to have her banned from covering council meetings, a subject the Ontario Ombudsman deemed illegal for an in camera meeting. If the allegation is true, it would constitute an attack on the Charter-guaranteed right to freedom of the press, says one journalism expert.
The Canadian Civil Liberties Association has asked Fredericton police for an explanation of why a local blogger, Charles LeBlanc, is being investigated under the little-used law of criminal libel. In a Feb. 1 letter, the group seeks an explanation of why LeBlanc, "apparently a vocal critic of the police force," had his computer seized during a search of his home. The group points out that courts in at least three provinces -- Ontario, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador -- have struck down the Criminal Code's libel provisions as a violation of the constitutional guarantee of freedom of expression.

NATO Needs a Southern Strategy
Larrabee & Wilson, The National Interest
The Associated Press
In the first two decades after the end of the Cold War, NATO looked predominantly east, toward Central and Eastern Europe, Ukraine and Russia. Today it is being drawn increasingly south to the Mediterranean, Middle East and Gulf for a simple reason—this is where many of the new challenges are located. If NATO wants to avoid strategic irrelevance, it needs to give increasing attention to the threats from the MENA region and develop a "Southern Strategy."

Jennie Gerhardt
"She was not, like so many endeavoring to put the ocean into a tea-cup, or to tie up the shifting universe in a mess of strings called law."
– Jennie Gerhardt by Theodore Dreiser.
I just finished reading this book and I admit, under full disclosure, that this blog post will not have anything to do with tea. Although I did think a bit about this quote and what it meant, our heroine Jennie, seems to be the sort of character who accepts things as they come and doesn't make a huge fuss when they end.
I've always been interested in classic literature but I can't quite tell you why. In part, it comes from an interest in history, but ever since high school I've always wanted to tackle some of the great novels of the past. Theodore Dreiser has been on my reading list for quite some time.
This is the second novel Dreiser novel I have read that have similar themes, the other was Sister Carrie, his first novel. Spoiler alert: I will be revealing quite a lot in this post.
Both books have heroines who come from impoverished families, and in order to escape the fate of becoming a washer woman or a factory worker, they are each seduced by men who take them under their wing and provide for them financially; thus becoming fallen women. Neither Jennie or Carrie seem to be "marriage material", however. Although their paramours seem to love them (or say they do), in reality they are holding out for a woman with more prestige and status.
Carrie Meeber is first taken in by Charles Drouet, who puts her into a nice apartment where they carry on the pretenses of being man and wife. She lives happily for a bit of time, but wishes for respectability and rightly loses hope that the union will ever turn into a respectable bond. She is then seduced by Hurstwood, a man who falls madly in love with her, but unbeknownst to Carrie he is already married. The deception continues when he leaves his wife, embezzles money from his company and tricks her into getting on a train where they eventually make their way to New York.
Carrie watches her paramour try to eek out a living for them both, and after several failed starts due to his criminal history and shady past he succumbs to depression, unemployment and eventually becomes a wastrel. Her hopes dashed while her man is effectively neutered, she begins to dream of a better life and eventually breaks free of their bond to become a successful and independent actress of the stage.
On the other hand, Jennie is born into a large German family which continually has difficulty making ends meet. Although she does try to work as a washer woman and a maid, it is never enough income for her family. She is at first seduced by the generous Senator Brandor, who seems to be quite taken with her and gives her plenty of money for her family. Although the details of their sexual relationship are quite vague, she later gives birth to a child and Senator Brandor dies. Next she is seduced by another affluent man, Lester Kane. At first it seems that he wants to trifle with her only, but their relationship turns into a long term cohabitation.
Neither Lester's nor Jennie's family approves of their bond, but Lester stands to lose his entire fortune and inheritance unless he marries Jennie or leaves her. Waffling for years between the two, he finally abandons their relationship to marry a wealthy woman.
Unlike Carrie, Jennie never seems to find the motivation to become her own person. Although she is put up into a tiny cottage and is provided for financially (by Lester), she leads a sad, kind of aimless life, full of loneliness and longing.
Because both of these novels explore similar themes I was led to do a bit of research on Theodore Dreiser. I was wondering if he had entered into a similar relationship at one point but clues were rather sparse on this point. I did learn that Dreiser was born into a large German family, and the fictional Gerhardt family was based partly on his own. He was also an outspoken Socialist , which was most likely due to the experiences formed by his past.
I did find this quote over on Spartacus Educational, which seems to provide a bit of clarity:
Since his early days of journalism Dreiser began to observe a certain type of crime in the United States that proved very common. It seemed to spring from the fact that almost every young person was possessed of an ingrown ambition to be somebody financially and socially. Dreiser described this as a form of disease. He added that he observed many forms of murder for money…the young ambitious lover of some poorer girl… for a more attractive girl with money or position…it was not always possible to drop the first girl. What usually stood in the way was pregnancy.
You may be wondering why I took all the trouble to write these many words on a subject which is unrelated to tea. I suppose I found myself contemplating these heroines and what life must have been like for women 100 years ago. I suppose it's a good sign when you read a book that makes you really think for a while about your own circumstances.
As I reflect upon my own life, I know I could be more well-off, better dressed, etc. But having a personal freedom which is tied to making my own way in the world has become very important to me. Entering into a union based on love is far preferable than a union based on necessity. However, women did not have as many options until more modern times.
Virginia Woolf wrote in A Room of One's Own:
Women have served all these centuries as looking-glasses possessing the magic and delicious power of reflecting the figure of a man at twice its natural size.
If you have actually read these pontifications of mine, I thank you. There are so many things to be grateful for in life, and freedom is one. Love should be a choice and not a shackle upon one's leg. We should all have options, no matter our gender, race or sexual orientation. For my own life now, I am grateful.

I sweat like crazy and thought this product would be good to keep the sweat out of my eyes and glasses while Mtn biking. It did not produce like I hoped for, only to leave a ring around my forehead without guttering the sweat (it kind of rolled right over?? Anyway I'll stick with a thin sweatband that will fit under the helmet.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Ice Hockey - Manchester Phoenix 6-3 Bracknell Bees
9:38am Wednesday 2nd January 2013 in Trafford Sport By Kyle Green
FIVE wins from six games over the Christmas period has pushed Tony Hand's Manchester Phoenix back into the title race.
Phoenix, who now trail leaders Basingstoke Bison by only two points, secured victories over rivals Sheffield, bottom club Telford, Slough and a penalty shoot out victory over Peterborough before Sundays 6-3 win over Bracknell.
Their only reversal came in Sheffield on Saturday where Phoenix failed to recover from going down 3-0 early and eventually lost 8-4 However, Phoenix ensured they closed out 2012 with a win the following night and edged closer to the league leaders.
Bracknell opened the scoring as they applied the early pressure but four straight goals from James Archer (2), Tony Hand and new signing Derek Campbell had Phoenix in control at the first break.
Fellow new signing Bari McKenzie added Phoenix's fifth before Bracknell countered with goals from Martin Masa and Alan Lack.
But Campbell, signed as injury cover from Sheffield Steeldogs, had the final say of the night with Phoenix's sixth goal completing an excellent night's work for the Canadian as he finished with two goals and three assists.

We recently heard that Nintendo is trying to get its Nintendo DS gaming console into junior high schools in Japan, and now it seems that even McDonald's is embracing Nintendo's popular portable gaming console. It seems that the fast good giant is developing a Nintendo DS training program for its part-time employees, called eSmart. Considering the size of McDonalds, the ¥200,000,000 (approx. $2.2M USD) cost of development is probably insignificant. McDonalds is hoping that the software will reduce training time by half, considering that everybody in Japan is already familiar with the Nintendo DS. What other places will the Nintendo DS be used in next?

Casting 2x2 matrix with unit determinant in another form
For the Iwasawa decomp of SL(2,R),
these notes
of Keith Conrad are nice.
I should mention that what's going on here is part of a bigger picture: the Iwasawa decomposition is really a statement about decomposing certain types of groups (e.g. semisimple Lie groups) of which SL(2,R) is an example.
For an example of another decomposition, you can refine the polar decomposition that you learned in linear algebra to obtain the so-called KAK decomposition, which also applies to a broad class of Lie groups. For SL(2,R), this states that any A can be written as
[tex]A = \begin{pmatrix} \cos\theta & -\sin\theta \\ \sin\theta & \cos\theta \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} a & 0 \\ 0 & a^{-1}\end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} \cos\psi & -\sin\psi \\ \sin\psi & \cos\psi \end{pmatrix},[/tex]
where [itex]\theta,\psi \in [0,2\pi)[/itex] and [itex]a>0[/itex] are uniquely determined by A.
Yet another example is the Bruhat decomposition, which states that [itex]A \in \text{SL}(2,\mathbb R)[/itex] is either upper-triangular, or else can be decomposed as
[tex]\begin{pmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & ac^{-1} \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} 0 & -1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} c & d \\ 0 & c^{-1} \end{pmatrix}.[/tex] Note that c is nonzero since we're assuming A is not upper-triangular, so it makes sense to invert it. Also note that b appears to have vanished, but of course it's still there as [itex]b = (ad-1)c^{-1}[/itex].

Air France disaster due to 'human and technical errors'
Mistakes by inadequately trained pilots and faulty equipment caused an Air France jet to plunge into the Atlantic in 2009, an investigation into the accident has concluded.
Air France Flight 447 lost contact with the ground during an electric storm on its journey from Rio de Janeiro to Paris. All 228 people on board died.
ITV News' Science Editor Lawrence McGinty explains what went wrong during that ill-fated flight:
The BEA air accident investigation agency blames a combination of "human and technical factors" and has recommended better training for pilots and stricter plane certification rules.
Today's report, the result of a three year probe, includes information from the jet's two black box flight recorders, recovered from the ocean in a costly and extraordinarily complex search involving robotic submarines.
One of the fatal decisions highlighted by the report is that the two pilots nosed the Airbus A330 upward during a stall - instead of downward, as they should have.
Chief investigator Alain Bouillard said they never understood that the plane was in a stall, partly because of false data from sensors about the plane's position. "In this case, the crew was in a state of near-total loss of control," he said.
The two co-pilots failed to carry out a basic manoeuvre for stall recovery which pilots are taught at the outset of their flight training.
Much attention has focussed on the role of pitot tubes - devices on the outside of the place which measure speed and help the pilots to understand the positioning of the jet.
During the flight, the tubes became blocked by ice crystals as the plane flew through a storm, and started providing incorrect information. Mr Bouillard said that the failure of the pitot tubes was the "unleashing event" that led to the crash.
Airbus, manufacturer of the A330 plane, said in a statement that it is working to improve pitot tubes and making other efforts to avoid future such accidents.
William Voss, president of the Flight Safety Foundation in Virginia in the US, has said that the accident was caused by the pilots' over-reliance on automation.
He claims that after they were forced to fly manually when the automation failed, they were unable to look through the conflicting information and understand what the aircraft was actually doing.
Pilots a generation ago would have done that and understood what was going on, but [the pilots] were so conditioned to rely on the automation that they were unable to do this. This is a problem not just limited to Air France or Airbus. It's a problem we're seeing around the world because pilots are being conditioned to treat automated processed data as truth, and not compare it with the raw information that lies underneath.

'The Voice:' Who's the better coach, Shakira or Christina Aguilera?
The new season of The Voice kicked off this week and though the contestants so far have been pretty amazing, everyone seems to have all eyes on new coaches Shakira and Usher!
After NBC first announced that Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green were being replaced by these two for the spring season, fans expressed some very mixed opinions. Some were thrilled to see a change, while others…well, not so much. So by the time the premiere finally rolled around on Monday, it seemed like all viewers only had one question in mind: Will Shaki and Usher be able to cut it?
Read more ¿Qué más?: 'The Voice:' 6 things we hope to see in season 4!
I've watched all the seasons so far and though I do miss the former coaches at time, I personally don't mind seeing some new faces on the team. However, there are some blatantly obvious differences in coaching styles, particularly between the two ladies of the show, Aguilera and Shakira. So which of these two female superstars is the better 'Voice' judge? Read on and decide for yourself!
- Pushing their buttons: From what I can tell, Shakira seems to be much more careful when it comes to deciding whether to turn her chair around. There have been multiple times when it looks like she's just about to do so and then the song ends before she can do so. Xtina was choosy about the contestants, but when someone's voice did capture her interest, she was usually quick to hit her button.
- Convincing contestants to join their team: They both love to play the I'm-the-only-female card, but Aguilera is more technical, often pointing out a vocalist's runs or specific notes. Meanwhile, Shakira seems to care more about the emotions they put into the song.
- Vibing with the other coaches: Both Aguilera and Shakira are sassy and love to tease the other coaches. But whereas Aguilera has been criticized in the past for being too snappy and critical, Shakira tends to keep things more lighthearted.
- Fashion: Fans could always count on Xtina to wear something outrageous and over-the-top , whether it was a pink fro or revealing corset. Shakira is way, way less dramatic with her outfit choices, opting for black, sparkly and simple, even while taking the stage with the other coaches.
- Coaching: The blind auditions aren't over so we have yet to see Shakira actually work with any of her team. My prediction though? Whereas Aguilera would often sing while rehearsing with team members to exemplify a point, Shaki will be more about discussing the song choice and the contestant's personal connection to it.
It's still too early to tell who makes for the better mentor and even though they are different in so many ways, I honestly don't know if I'll ever be able to decide. I'm a fan of them both and think that they bring totally unique perspectives to the show. For now, I just can't wait to see what Shakira will bring to the table the rest of this season!

definitely Christina - Shakira can't seem to make a decision "what do i do" - please just make a decision...Christina is so much better - not saying Shakira isnt talented, but Christina is more well rounded. Just because Shakira can sing, doesnt mean she will make a good coach.

News: Cam'ron Dismisses Dipset Rift Speculation, Reveals Real Delay Behind Diplomat Reunion LP [Audio]
Thursday, Oct 10, 2013 7:40PM
Dipset leader Cam'ron recently updated fans on the status of a reunion project alongside Jim Jones, Juelz Santana and Freekey Zekey and, most importantly, what has held it back.
Dismissing any and all feud speculation, Killa Cam admitted scheduling and an emphasis on putting out a quality effort has kept the LP shelved.
"Well, you know we all good with each other. It's about everybody, everybody still got a lot going on. You know what I'm saying? It's about everybody just being on the same page and not being busy. You know what I'm saying? Everybody got something going on right now. So, we all just gotta get on the same page and if we get the time, but it's definitely all love. It's just about nobody wants to sit in the studio for a week and just do a Dipset album cause it wouldn't be genuine. So, basically we trying to figure out the time schedule so we can do it and get it right." (Hoodrich Radio)
Earlier this year, Juelz Santana promised the Diplomats were back to business.
"We definitely going to get back in the studio and start working on some music and if the vibe is good and the music is coming out the way it's supposed to come out. We going to put that record out." (HHS1987)
A few days prior, Dipset's Jim Jones spoke on the much anticipated reunion.
"It's nothing really holding it up," Jimmy said in an interview when asked about the Dipset reunion. "It's just an organic thing, it's a band of brothers that started this game from teenagers, made a h*ll of a lot of money, probably more money than most of the industry had ever seen, um, you know, we all was feeling ourselves, little discrepancies, got back together, loving the fact that we could get back together on our own regard because everybody is their own boss, it's still Dipset for life, all of us have been recording. This month marks the ten-year anniversary of Diplomatic Immunity 1, the first album we did together. So yes, there will be a lot of surprises this year. We plan to attack a lot of Summer Jam stages, we plan to attack a lot of venues, um, we good. You're gonna love it, I promise you. And we have some music, that's the scary thing. ... I can say now we have some music that's going to bust some people's heads open." ("Jenny Boom Boom TV")
Over the winter, Santana blamed himself for holding things up.
"Shout-out to Jim, shout-out to Cam. I'm not going to even lie, at the time, when we put out the 'Salute' record, it was still at the time where I wasn't doing a lot of music, just, period. I wasn't back in the zone that I needed to be in, musically. Honestly. It's not even about that project. I had the same way like I took a break from everything. ... I wasn't really in my mojo to just sit down and just complete a Dipset project. We up with my man Flex, this is a new year. In order to get it right, we've got to make it all the way right. You dig what I'm saying? That's why I'm saying it is possible, because I know Cam is willing to do, I'm sure Jim is willing to do it. I've always been willing to do it, it's just about me getting my music mojo back." ("Funkmaster Flex")

After the release of David Garrard some Jags fans are scratching thier heads and questioning the move, but to me it seems like the Jags are quietly following the recipe to build a quality team. In recent years there have been two good recipes for creating a playoff contention team. Option 1 is creating a strong offensive team that simply outscores the opponent, like the Colts, Saints and Packers. The other option is similar to how the Ravens, Falcons and Steelers found success.
The Jaguars have a Pro Bowl RB in Maurice Jones-Drew and have taken steps to build a strong defense. A great running game and defense takes pressure off the QB and allows them to develop quite nicely. Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco, and Big Ben were all rookies at one point supported by a great defense and run game. I believe the Jags are trying to set up Blaine Gabbert the same way. I would assume since the offseason was limited by the lockout, they'll let Luke McCown be the starter until Gabbert is up to speed. Hopefully this recipe works for the Jags as well as it did for the other teams.

We LOVE the cottage and will be back!
I grew up visiting the Stoney Lake area every summer. I was excited to see this cottage for rent since is right in the middle of where many fond memories were made. I was not expecting the cottage to be as amazing as it is. The view is stunning. We spent every morning drinking coffee while watching the morning sky over the lake. Every evening spent on the beach watching the day set. Every comfort has been considered. There was nothing we needed that was not provided. The cottage has been meticulously restored and is absolutely charming. We came home relaxed and with very fond memories of our week in this lovely We love Pentwater and Holland and spent a couple days shopping and enjoying the local communities. We also rented bikes to ride the trail. We will be back next year...maybe for two weeks!
WOW!! Gorgeous view of Lake Michigan
The 1st day drive back to the house we were greeted with 2 deer grazing. Spectular views of the lake. Nice neighbors. Loved the quietness at nighttime. We live out in the country and see stars at night but here the stars were so much brighter. The kids loved playing on the beach and sand dunes. Kitchen had everything we needed. House was nice and clean, beds comfortable. My 6'6" hubby loved the king bed and how is sat higher than normal beds. The kids enjoyed the games. Homeowners called in the 1st day to check on how everything was. Thats is a first for me and I have been renting vacation homes for 20 years. Everything was perfect. We are ready to come back!
Great weekend
This place is a gem. Enjoyed a long weekend here, it was delightful. Only drawback, which could also be considered a benefit, cell phone service was quite poor and house phone wouldn't hold a charge. Had to go to town to make a call...beautiful and memorable vacation...

Add New Review About The Artist
Do People Like that Still Exist Today? | Reviewer: Michael Omode | 12/9/2007
I watched "Street Child," on YouTube by following links to Slash's solos. One thing I can say- these people are TALENTED, and you can't argue that. Not money makers or brain washers- just pure musicians and they love what they do. Elan and Slash? that's amazing and wonderful music. Not to mention all the other participants. What a way to go.
She's what music needs right now | Reviewer: )O(The Cat)O( | 5/4/2005
Elan, unlike many artists, is giving us a completely free, authentic and honest concept. She knew since the very beginning what she wanted to do and the way she wanted it to be done. She was rejected many times 'cause she refused to change her ideas and become just another female artist who dances and dresses like a silly schoolgirl, with meaningless songs just because that's what the business wants **cough**britney**cought**... Her music is a fusion of all the stuff she grew up listening to: Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Billy Holiday, and a long long etcetera... I think this girl is amazing, and her music is really worth listening to.
Elan,... totally rocks | Reviewer: mariagloria | 10/21/2004
I think she is great, am no expert but i love her songs.
if the world is any bit fair she has to be a big star.
i wish her a lot of luck, she is going to need it .´cause
people are really stupid and slow at giving credit to real talent.
elan totally rocks !!!!

Opening weekend for the Cats at Sacramento's beautiful and talented Raley Field. I, Gallo del Cielo, doesn't think he can make it, but he has free tickets for any stray animals in the greater Sacramento area to see the RiverCats play those pesky Toronto Cascades on Friday eve, a day that might be chilly and wet but full of spirit, which will make little difference, for the tickets are actually free. Can you identify the moment you lost faith in that sentence?
It was after you read the word "free." You began to drool and reach like Rowand for a slider. You didn't understand that you would still have to get yourself to the park, sit in the chilly night, and buy food/drink. You heard "free" and "really good seat," and you thought, "Hey, yeah."
By "Cascades" I meant "Laniers." By "Toronto" I meant "Tacoma." According to the Internet, the Laniers are the defending PCL champions. I thought that was actually the Cats. Maybe that was several years ago. In any case, their website claims that the Laniers field fairly well and might be awarded a run or two by the judges for sheer dampness. How could you not want to be present? Tacoma has some of the best raw talent in the meat locker. The Cats claw their ways into that very same meat locker. Blood covers this metaphor.
You could be present for the slaughter. You must just hold your nose and contact Gallo del Cielo. This is best done by sending him one of those hi-tech e-mails thingies at the address on his profile page. Keystrokes leading to the exchange of information will ensue. I like saying "ensue." I also like saying "usurp." My ideal sentence that doesn't involve Coco Crisp would be "Usurpation ensued."
I blame Grant.

Street Legal Lawyers Look for Adventure
Posted Sep 13, 2007 6:08 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
The deep aggressive roar of a Harley engine generally isn't the first association that comes to mind concerning an attorney.
But it's a familiar sound to the founding members of the western Wisconsin chapter of Street Legal, a motorcycle club for attorneys and other legal professionals, writes the Pierce County Herald (reg. req.).
The three-year-old club reportedly travels by motorcycle to a wide variety of sites ranging from pumpkin patches to continuing legal education seminars.

Posted on Monday, February 18 @ 09:26:44 Eastern by Alex_Osborn

According to studio founder, Cevat Yerli, in an interview with Eurogamer:
Could the technical gap between the PS4/Xbox 720 and top-of-the-line PCs be that apparent right out of the gate? What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.

Basketball Wins Overtime Thriller Over UCF, 83-82, In Final Home Game
Feb. 12, 2005
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - JU junior point guard Jesse Kimbrough (Mexia, Texas) led five Dolphins in double figures with 18 points, including a game-winning free throw with 3.2 seconds to play in overtime as JU hung on to defeat UCF, 83-82, Saturday afternoon at Swisher Gymnasium in the Dolphins' final home game of the season. The win pushes JU (14-10, 10-7) back into sole possession of second place in the Atlantic Sun Conference and breaks a four-game losing streak against the Golden Knights, who forced the extra session with a full-court lay-up with less than a second to play in regulation. UCF falls to 16-8 overall, 9-7 in the A-Sun.
UCF's Anthony Williams, who finished with a game-high 31 points and 10 rebounds, tipped-in a Joshua Peppers miss in the lane to tie the game at 82-82 with 11 seconds to play in overtime. Kimbrough drove the lane and was fouled on a shot attempt in traffic. He hit just 1-of-2 free throws, but Peppers' last-second three-point attempt missed at the buzzer. The game featured 15 ties and 20 lead changes.
Kimbrough added a career-best eight rebounds as the two teams each grabbed 33 boards. Senior guard David Lee (Columbus, Ga.) also scored 18 points for JU, while sophomore forward Haminn Quaintance (Sarasota, Fla.) had 15 points and seven rebounds. Dolphin guard B.J. Surry (Independence, Mo.) came off the bench to score 12 points in just 13 minutes, while Aubrey Conerly (Calumet, Ill.) added 10 as JU outscored the Golden Knights, 26-5, in bench points. The Dolphins shot 57 percent from the field, including 8-of-16 three-pointers, but hit just 17-of-32 from the line, including 4-of-11 in overtime.
Junior forward Mario Brown (Memphis, Tenn.) gave JU a defensive spark off the bench with a career-best six blocks as the Dolphins limited UCF to just 6-of-23 shooting outside the arc. The Golden Knights hit 18-of-20 free throws, including 11-of-11 by Williams.
The Dolphins stretched a one-point halftime lead to 69-60 on a Surry three-pointer at the 4:44 mark of the second half, but Peppers sparked a 10-1 UCF run with seven points and tied the game at 70-70 on a driving lay-up with 38 seconds left in regulation. JU regained the lead, 72-70, when freshman walk-on Brad Larson (Orlando, Fla.) hit a reverse lay-up with six seconds to play, but Justin Rose drove the ball the length of the court and tied the game with 0.5 seconds remaining in regulation.
JU will play its final three regular-season games on the road beginning at Troy on Friday at 7:30 p.m. The game will be featured as the A-Sun Game of the Week on CSS-TV with Barry Milligan and Sonny Smith on the call.

I have a piece this month in Khabar Magazine about the struggles new grads are facing in trying to find a job in this tough market. I don't envy this year's grads, but I did find that many of them are taking a "when life gives you lemons make lemonade" attitude. They are looking into doing service work, traveling around India, studying arts or taking up non-traditional jobs as a way to ride out the recession. Good for them!
Here's the full piece.

Medical marijuana dispensaries looking to open in Naperville will be allowed to do so in some retail areas and can have drive-thru windows. The Naperville City Council approved regulations for the dispensaries and cultivation centers before the drug officially becomes legal for medical purposes Jan. 1. Cities are not allowed to prohibit such facilities entirely,
Washington became the second U.S. state to adopt rules for the recreational sale of marijuana Wednesday, setting what advocates expect to become a template for the legalization of the drug around the world. "We feel very proud of what we're doing," said Sharon Foster, chairwoman of the Washington Liquor Control Board, as she and her
In front of the U.S. Capitol Thursday, two congressmen discussed H.R. 2240, the Small Business Tax Equity Act, a little known bill introduced in June by Oregon Democrat Earl Blumenauer to allow deductions and credits relating to expenditures for marijuana sales conducted in compliance with state law. The bill, according to GovTrack.Us, has a 0%

The announcement came nearly two weeks after the Justice Department decided it won't take legal action against Colorado and Washington,
Connecticut's new medical marijuana program will move forward now that regulations governing the system were approved by a key legislative committee in a voice vote Tuesday afternoon. The vote, by the regulations review committee, clears the way for the state to seek applications for marijuana growers and sellers. William Rubenstein, consumer protection commissioner, said he
Gov.

Seeking to make it easier for medical pot users to get their medicine and harder for the black market to get its hands on Oregon weed, the state Senate on Wednesday approved a bill that would legalize and license marijuana shops. Under current Oregon law, nearly 55,000 cardholders must grow the drug themselves or designate
The legalization of medical marijuana is prompting cities and towns across the region to consider zoning restrictions to limit where dispensaries may open. With state regulations in effect as of Friday, and the dispensary application process scheduled by the state for this summer and fall, many communities are feeling time is short to regulate what
A ballot measure to sharply limit the number of medical marijuana dispensaries in the Los Angeles was approved by voters Tuesday night.

To see how Test-Driven Development is different, let's
compare it to the traditional way of programming,
something I call Debug-Later Programming.
In DLP, code is designed and written; when the code is
"done," it is tested. Interestingly, that
definition of done fails to include about
half the software development effort.
It's natural to make mistakes during design and
coding—we're only human. Therein lies the problem
with Debug-Later Programming; the feedback revealing
those mistakes may take days, weeks, or months to get
back to you, the developer. The feedback is too late
to help you learn from your mistakes. It won't help
you avoid the mistake the next time.
With the late feedback, other changes may be piled on
broken code so that there is often no clear root
cause. Some code might depend on the buggy behavior.
With no clear cause and effect, your only recourse is
a bug hunt. This inherently unpredictable activity can
destroy the most carefully crafted plans. Sure, you can
plan time for bug fixing, but do you ever plan enough?
You can't estimate reliably because of unknowable
Looking at Figure
Physics of Debug-Later Programming
, when
the time to discover a bug (T) increases, the time to
find a defect's root cause (T) also increases,
often dramatically. For some bugs, the time to fix the
bug (T) is often not
impacted by T. But if the
mistake is compounded by other code building on top of
a wrong assumption, T
may increase dramatically as well.
Some bugs lay
undetected or unfound for years.
Now take a look at
Physics of Test-Driven Development
. When the time to
discover a bug (T)
approaches zero, the time to find the
bug (T) also approaches
zero. A code problem, just introduced, is often obvious.
When it is not obvious, the developer can get back to
a working system by simply undoing the last change.
T is as low as it can
get, given that things can only get worse as time
clouds the programmer's memory and as more code
depends on the earlier mistake.
In comparison, TDD provides feedback immediately!
Immediate notification of mistakes prevents bugs. If a
bug lives for less than a few minutes, is it really a
bug? No, it's a prevented bug.
TDD is defect prevention. DLP institutionalizes waste.

For decades it was said Haverhill was a sleeping giant just waiting to be discovered by investors and developers who could see the community's potential.
The old abandoned shoe factories some people saw as an albatross were viewed by others as a way to make the city a success again, as it was in the late 1800s through the mid-1900s, when Haverhill was a leading maker of women's shoes.
The giant has indeed awaken. In the last few years, developers have invested in those buildings and revamped them. Now hundreds of apartments and condos occupy the old factories. Many people walk from their downtown homes to the train station and take the commuter rail to their jobs in Boston. Successful restaurants and other businesses are prospering in Haverhill. The city is seen as a desirable place to live.
If the city was a sleeping giant, then perhaps the Merrimack River is its lifeblood. The river flows through the heart of Haverhill, the downtown where workers once piled uncounted shoes onto barges to be sent around the world.
Today's version of the river promises a different kind of lifeblood. Instead of carrying barges here to ship shoes to other countries, the Merrimack is seen as serving another purpose — but one that can also boost the city's economy.
Enter state Sen. Kathleen O'Connor Ives. Haverhill's new senator has been is named to a legislative committee for tourism and culture. She said her priorities include tourism in Haverhill, with a focus on the Merrimack.
That's good news.
The groundwork has been laid by Haverhill's recent accomplishments around the river. The Bradford Rail Trail on the south side of the river offers walkers and bikers a place to go for a stroll along the scenic waterway. There is a move afoot to have local sculptors erect their works along the trail to make it more attractive to visitors.

Will Augusta Commissioners turn back the clock when it comes to balancing the budget?
With no support for an excise tax on industry, or a property tax increase, city leaders are still looking for options to fill a projected $8 million to $10 million budget shortfall.
In 2012, Commissioners faced a similar shortfall and debated using three furlough days, and 34 layoffs, to save $1.6 million, but Commissioner Grady Smith says those are not his two favorite ways to balance the budget.
"I would say, last resort. I don't like 'monkeying' around with our employees. I think we have some great employees for this county, I think there are ways...it's just like running a household. When you've got a budget, you got to tighten up during certain economic times, you got to pull the belt tighter," says Commissioner Smith.
Augusta Commission Finance Committee Chairman Wayne Guilfoyle is planning to meet Friday with City Administrator Fred Russell and Augusta Finance Department officials to discuss spending cuts to balance the budget.
