New Zealand's The Phoenix Foundation are all set to return with their new double album Fandango on May 14, 2013. The Wellington based six piece's first cut from the album is "The Captain," a 3 minute ballad of melancholic melodic joy featuring the vocal talents of Lukas Buda, one of the band's two front men. Listen to the track below!
The band, who had a critical and commercial hit in the UK with 2011's album Buffalo (and which preceded them playing Glastonbury and performing on Later with Jools Holland), have returned with an expansive, bold and colourful statement on Fandango. The album, an uncompromising 80 minutes, sees the band explore a range of moods and musical threads from the glowering motorik opener of "Black Mould," the soulful yacht rock of "Sideways Glance" and end-of-the-party psych-folk of "Modern Rock."
The Phoenix Foundation are lead vocalists/guitarists Samuel Flynn Scott and Luke Buda, Conrad Wedde (guitars, keys), Tom Callwood (bass guitar, vocals), Chris O'Connor (drums) and Will Ricketts (percussion, keyboards).

Dutch Zorn Invite attracts seven teams
Track enthusiasts will see some excellent competition Friday at Gothenburg's annual Dutch Zorn Invitational track meet. Seven schools—Kearney Catholic, Lexington, McCook, Sidney, Ogallala, Kearney JV and Gothenburg—are entered this year.
Field events will open the meet at 2 p.m. Running events are scheduled to start at 3 p.m. The "Dutch Zorn Mile Medley Relay" will kick off the finals in the late afternoon at approximately 5 p.m. The medley features legs of 200, 200, 400 and 800 meters.
Special awards in memory of Danny Nichols and Jim Ambler will be awarded prior to the final event of the day.
Lexington is the reigning girls champion while McCook is a two-time defending boys champion.
The meet is named for former Swede coach Dutch Zorn, who guided Gothenburg to state track championships in 1949, 1957, 1962, 1967 and 1971. Zorn's distinguished coaching career in track and football landed him in the first class of inductees in the Nebraska High School Sports Hall of Fame in 1994.

text: Hello, sorry, this discussion arrived here relatively confused, but there seemed to be several people interested, so I answer to the list. I have recently done some tatting with #40 pure linen thread. I bought this thread from a friend of mine who owns the only bobbin lace store here in Berlin, Germany (as far as I know). She had this thread in white and black, I used the black one. She keeps telling me the meaning of the thread sizes and I keep forgetting. Aside, I personally use any thread size from 20 to 100 for tatting. There are tatters who tat with much heavier threads and even yarns. The linen thread my friend sells was called size 40, and this refers to the weight per length. I forgot the units. This does not say anything about the thickness of the thread. In this case, the thread was not even, it varied very much in thickness. Judging from the eye, I would say it varied between the thickness of size 15 and size 80 even, regular cotton thread used for crochet or tatting. My friend said the variation in thickness is a characteristic of pure linen. She has worked with linen threads, fabrics etc. for more than 20 years, which is why I believe her. Tatting with uneven thread is difficult, but worked well with the linen thread. It would not have worked with cotton, because of the characteristics of the fiber. If anyone is interested, I could ask her to help obtaining this thread.

Cost-utility analysis, used increasingly over the past decade to analyze costs and effects in treating physical diseases, has received little attention in psychiatry. This article briefly introduces the concepts and methods of utility measurement and illustrates it using depression as an example. The authors describe the McSad health state classification system for depression, a direct utility measure for depression, and report results of an application of McSad among 105 patients who had a recent history of depression. Utility measures express patient preferences for specific health states on a scale ranging from 0, representing death, to 1, representing perfect health. These scores provide the weights used to calculate the number of quality-adjusted life-years gained by an intervention or service. McSad allows a patient's depression health state to be classified according to level of functioning in six dimensions of depression and to be compared with other hypothetical depression health states in order to produce utility scores indicating the patient's relative preferences.
Psychiatrists and other mental health professionals concerned with the costs and effects of psychiatric services need to be familiar with the techniques of economic analysis so that they can understand and apply the results of economic evaluations in their work (1,2). Cost-utility analysis is one useful form of economic evaluation (3,4). In this approach, the costs of an intervention or service are considered in relation to its effects, expressed as the number of quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) gained. QALYs are calculated by adjusting the length of time to be spent in a specific health state (typically the patient's life expectancy) by the quality of that health state. These quality-adjustment weights are obtained by using utility measurement techniques.
Over the past decade utility measurement instruments have been used to obtain quality-adjustment weights for health states associated with a broad range of physical diseases. However, they have had little or no application to health states associated with psychiatric disorders. Our aim in this paper is to introduce mental health professionals to the concepts and methods of utility measurement. First, utility theory and general issues related to measurement are summarized. Next, the utility approach is illustrated using depression as an example. Utility measures are contrasted with traditional measures of depression symptoms, and the experience to date with utility measures of depression is reviewed. To provide an example, we describe the design of the McSad health state classification system for depression, a direct utility measure for depression, and report the results obtained in a patient survey using McSad.
Utility measures are derived from economic and decision theory, specifically von Neumann-Morgenstern utility theory, which describes decision making under conditions of risk and uncertainty (5,6,7). The objective of the utility measurement process is to determine the score for a specific state of health on the utility scale, which ranges from 0, indicating death, to 1, indicating perfect health. The utility score an individual assigns to a given health state reflects the desirability or preference that person has for that health state relative to perfect health and death—that is, its utility.
Utility scores—often referred to simply as utilities—are obtained through specialized measurement techniques: the standard gamble, the rating scale, and the time trade-off. The standard gamble and the rating scale methods are discussed below. The time trade-off approach is described elsewhere (4). The standard gamble is the classical approach to utility measurement (4,8) because preferences are measured under uncertainty—that is, risk or probabilities are involved in the utility measurement question. The rating scale and time trade-off methods can also be used, although these methods produce values, not utilities, because uncertainty and risk are not involved in the measurement process. Rating scale values can be transformed with a power curve calculation to allow them to be interpreted as utilities (8,9). For the time trade-off approach, however, no conversion method is currently available.
The distinction between utilities obtained with the standard gamble and values obtained with the rating scale or time trade-off techniques is important. Value measurement is founded on psychological scaling (10,11), whereas utility measurement is founded on von Neumann-Morgenstern utility theory. Empirically, the differences are systematic (for health states, utilities exceed values) and can be quite large (3). In health applications, utilities are more appropriate than values because von Neumann-Morgenstern utility theory addresses decision making in the face of uncertainty. Clearly, health care decisions often involve uncertainties, and sometimes large uncertainties.
Utilities can be obtained directly (1) or indirectly (4,12). McSad is a direct measure in which rating scale and standard gamble techniques are used in a structured, interviewer-administered questionnaire to obtain utilities for specific health states. Respondents are asked about their own state of health and about other hypothetical health states that they may or may not have experienced in the past, selected according to the research objectives of the investigator. McSad is focused on depression and hence uses hypothetical depression health states.
Alternatively, utilities can be obtained indirectly by classifying an individual's health status into a multiattribute health status classification system (12,13). The utility for a specific health state is then calculated using the scoring formula for that system. However, no such system is currently available for converting classifications of psychiatric disorders into utility scores.
The information provided by utility scores is complementary to existing measures of the presence and severity of psychiatric symptoms, such as the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (14), the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (15), the Beck Depression Inventory (16), and the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (17). However, these instruments differ from the utility approach in a fundamental way. The scores they produce reflect the presence and severity of depressive symptoms, as defined by the item content, the scaling method, and the rater (physician, trained interviewer, or patient).
In contrast, utility scores measure the desirability or preference a patient has for depression as a health state, relative to other health states, on the utility scale. For example, two respondents might have identical depression severity ratings on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. However, when they are asked to rate their own current health states using utility techniques, the desirability or preference they assign on the scale may differ significantly. In an evaluation of the impact of a drug treatment for depression, scores on a utility measure and on a symptom rating scale may lead to different conclusions about the benefit of the treatment.
Relatively little attention has been given to utility measurement in depression. Scores for depression health states are available from only a few surveys of representative samples of the general population using methods with demonstrated reliability and validity. In one study, a health state characterized as a three-month episode of depression was assessed using the time trade-off method and received a value of .44 (18). In another study, again using the time trade-off method, a health state described as "being anxious or depressed some or a good bit of the time and having very few friends and little contact with others" received a score of .45 (8). In a third study, the health state "extremely fretful, angry, irritable, or depressed usually requiring hospitalization or psychiatric institutional care" received an indirect utility score of .50 using a multiattribute health status classification system (19).
Utility scores provide the weights required to calculate quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) for cost-utility analysis. The following is a simplified example of how they are used. Utility scores obtained with McSad (discussed in more detail below) were .59 for mild depression and .32 for moderate depression. For an individual who can be expected to live another 20 years, the QALY figure associated with spending the entire 20 years in the moderate depression health state would be 6.6 years (20 x .32).
In contrast, the QALY figure associated with spending the entire period in the mild depression health state would be 11.8 years (20 x .59). Thus 5.2 quality-adjusted life years are gained as a result of an intervention that moves an individual from the moderate to the mild depression health state. The cost of treatment per QALY gained is then calculated. Cost can be calculated from at least three different perspectives—cost to the patient and the family, cost to the health care system, and cost to society. Torrance (3) provides a detailed discussion of the use and calculation of QALYs.
To our knowledge, only three cost-utility analyses of treatment for depression have been published. In one of these studies, utility values were generated by a panel of physicians rather than by patients or representative samples of the general population or caregivers (20). The authors of the study provided very few details about the methods they used to obtain the utility scores. Elsewhere it has been shown that physicians tend to assign higher utility scores than patients to a given health state (21). Another investigator used estimated values drawn from a literature review (22).
A third study included standard gamble utilities obtained from a sample of patients at two sites who had completed eight weeks of antidepressant therapy (23). Untreated depression received a standard gamble utility score of .30. The other states assessed described short-term treatment with three different drugs. The authors provided very little information about the content of the health state descriptions and how they were developed. Also, if the patients were symptomatic, the scores obtained may have been biased downward.
Mean utility scores can be compared between treatment groups to evaluate differential treatment effects on patient preferences for the outcomes produced. For example, the mean utility score for a new treatment might be in the neighborhood of .60, which is consistent with mild depression (as suggested by the initial results with McSad presented below). If the existing standard treatment resulted in a mean utility score around .30 (consistent with moderate depression, based on the mean McSad utility score for this state), then we could conclude that, on average, the new treatment moves patients from moderate depression to mild depression. In the absence of clinical benchmarks along the utility scale, a difference of .10 on the scale is the minimum to be considered a clinically important difference (4).
In this section we provide an example of a direct utility measure of depression health states—McSad. First we describe the instrument itself. Then we report utility scores for depression health states obtained in a patient survey using McSad.
McSad was designed to measure utility scores for four depression health states: the respondent's self-reported health state and three clinical marker health states of untreated depression. Clinical marker health states are hypothetical states that the respondent may or may not have experienced. The three included in McSad, which describe untreated mild, moderate, and severe unipolar depression, provide utility scores for clinically important levels of untreated depression. These clinical marker health states were constructed using items from the six dimensions listed in t1. They can be used as benchmarks, or anchors, along the utility scale to aid in the clinical interpretation of utility scores (24).
To create descriptions of health states requires multiattribute classification systems that make explicit the dimensions of health and then define them in terms of levels of functioning (12,13). However, existing multiattribute systems are of limited usefulness for describing depression health states because they were developed to describe general health status and physical function (12,13). The Health Utilities Index, for example, includes eight dimensions: vision, hearing, speech, ambulation, dexterity, emotion, cognition, and pain (13).
To describe depression health states, we developed the initial draft of the McSad depression health state classification system. The final version of the system was based on validity assessments by clinicians involved in the care of depressed patients. A full description of the validity assessment methods we used is available elsewhere (25).
As shown in t1, McSad consists of six dimensions: emotion, self-appraisal, cognition, physiology, behavior, and role function. The selection of these dimensions was guided by the DSM-III-R criteria for major unipolar depression. Each dimension is operationalized by specific components designed to capture its essence in depression. For example, mood and ability to experience pleasure are the components of the emotion dimension.
Four levels of functioning are defined for each dimension, reflecting absence of dysfunction or mild, moderate, or severe dysfunction. For example, having no dysfunction on the emotion dimension is described as "Mood is normal. Enjoy life with its usual ups and downs." Mild emotional dysfunction is described as "Feel more down (or sad, blue, depressed) than usual and don't enjoy things as usual."
Respondents' self-reported health state is obtained at the start of the McSad interview by presenting them with a checklist of the McSad items and asking them to identify their level of functioning on each of the six dimensions during a specified period preceding the interview, usually seven days. The completed checklist is then used in the McSad interview along with the three McSad clinical marker health states—descriptions of untreated mild, moderate, and severe depression, presented to respondents on printed cards.
The McSad interview is a face-to-face interview with a trained interviewer. Respondents are asked a series of questions, in two parts, about the four health states. In part one, the questions about the health states are derived from the rating scale method, and in part two, from the standard gamble.
The rating scale approach is presented as a feeling thermometer. Respondents rank the health states by preference, relative to one another and to the anchor states. The top anchor of the thermometer, assigned a value of 100, is defined as the most preferred health state (perfect health). The bottom anchor, assigned a value of 0, is defined as the least preferred health state (death). In this exercise, respondents are asked to imagine living in each of the four health states without change for the rest of their lives. They are then asked to place the states of health along the scale in order of preference, spacing them at intervals that reflect the differences in the strength of preference the respondent feels for them. A utility score between 1 and 0 is computed for each health state.
The standard gamble is presented in the interview as two choices. Choice A, the uncertain choice, contains two possible health state outcomes, perfect health and death, which have the probabilities of p and 1-p, respectively, of occurring. Choice B is the certain choice; it includes only one possible health state or outcome—moderate depression, for example, as described in the corresponding clinical marker health state. The two health states are specified to last the same amount of time. The interviewer varies the probability (p) in choice A systematically until the respondent is indifferent between the uncertain and the certain choice.
For example, respondents are asked whether they would prefer to live the remainder of their lives in the moderate depression health state (choice B) or would prefer a lottery (choice A) in which they would have, say, a probability of .9 of having perfect health for the remainder of their lives and a probability of .1 of immediate death. If a respondent prefers choice A with these odds, the interviewer then reverses the question. Respondents are asked whether they would prefer to live the remainder of their lives in the moderate depression health state or would prefer a lottery in which they would have a probability of .9 of immediate death and a probability of .1 of having perfect health for the remainder of their lives. This reversal in the questioning, known as the Ping-Pong approach, is used to minimize measurement bias.
The interviewer then shifts the odds to a probability of .8 of perfect health and a probability of .2 of immediate death, and then again reverses the question. If the respondent still prefers the lottery, the odds are changed to probabilities of .7 and .3, and so on, until the respondent's preference for the lottery is the same as for a health state of moderate depression. Likewise, if the respondent prefers choice B at the outset, the odds are shifted in the opposite direction until the preferences are equal. The probability (p) at this indifference point is the utility score for the health state in choice B. The interviewer then goes to other health states, in random order, for choice B.
McSad was applied in a cross-sectional survey of 105 patients who had experienced at least one episode of major, unipolar depression in the past two years but were currently in remission. Patients were recruited in 1995 from four psychiatric outpatient clinics linked to the Faculty of Health Sciences at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. Of 121 patients referred, 117 met the inclusion criteria, and 112 agreed to participate. Of these, seven patients were excluded after the interview: five whose results were positive on a screen for relapse and two who were deemed ineligible because of physical handicap and hospital admission for depression, conditions that might bias the utility scores downward.
Interviews were audio-recorded and were spot-checked at regular intervals by a member of the research team. All interviews were completed, and the mean±SD interview duration was 52.6±8.4 minutes. Eighty-nine percent of the respondents were judged by the interviewer to have fully comprehended the interview, and all respondents were judged to have been fully cooperative.
The mean±SD age of the respondents was 41.7±8.7 years. Females constituted 74 percent of the sample, 62 percent reported English as their ethnic identity, and 68 percent were engaged in either full-time or part-time employment outside the home. Sixty-nine percent reported that they had completed high school, and 19 percent had a university degree. Sixty-six percent of the respondents reported that they first sought treatment for their depression within the past four years, 71 percent had experienced more than one episode of depression, and 66 percent reported that they had experienced severe depression as described by the McSad severe depression health state. Sixty-six percent of the respondents were currently taking antidepressant medication.
t2 shows the mean utility scores and 95 percent confidence intervals for the McSad depression health states. The three clinical marker states were measured using a six-month duration, and the self-reported health state and severe depression were measured using a lifetime duration. The respondent's self-reported health state appears not to have influenced the scores assigned to the hypothetical health states; the Pearson correlation coefficients between the self-reported health states and the hypothetical health states were all below .15 (p>.05). The order of the mean scores for the clinical markers is consistent with the rankings of mild (.59), moderate (.32), and severe (.09). The difference in means between mild and moderate depression is .27 (t= 15.16, p<.05), and the difference between moderate and severe depression is .23 (t=12.92, p<.05).
To date, utility measures have had little or no application to psychiatric disorders. The few cost-utility analyses that have been conducted on depression have relied primarily on expert opinion to obtain the utility values required. The McSad system provides an example of how utility approaches can be applied in psychiatric disorders and used to evaluate the incremental utility gain associated with a psychiatric intervention. The utility scores obtained with McSad for the untreated mild, moderate, and severe clinical marker health states show that depression is in fact associated with poor health-related quality of life. Compared with published utilities for chronic physical diseases, mild depression is in the same range as kidney dialysis; the utility for moderate depression is below that reported for "being blind, deaf, or dumb" (9).
Further research is required to gain a better understanding of the patient preferences explored in this study. The generalizability of the McSad depression utility scores reported here is uncertain. The survey respondents were recruited from four psychiatric outpatient clinics linked to an academic medical center. The extent to which these respondents are representative of all patients with a history of major unipolar depression who meet the study inclusion criteria is not known. In addition, the scores assigned by members of the general public, caregivers, or relatives of patients with depression may differ from the scores obtained from the patients themselves. Such potential differences merit further study.
Instruments such as McSad can be used to obtain the utility scores needed for cost-utility studies and medical decision-making models in major unipolar depression. Moreover, the methods used to develop McSad provide a foundation for realizing the broader goal of developing a method to convert psychiatric classifications into utility scores. As a first step, we developed a health state classification system specific to depression. In future work, the methods used for McSad can be extended to other psychiatric disorders.

There are many types of commercial properties, and no two of them are alike. Depending on your business goals, you may need to finance an apartment building, convenience store, gas station, health care center, auto services building, bed-and-breakfast, light industrial building, marina, campground or RV park, hotel or motel, mixed use property, mobile home park, retail space, self storage compound, warehouse, multi-family unit, office, or restaurant.
Major cities in Maine include Portland, Lewiston, Augusta, and Bangor. In any of these areas, you'll be able to find commercial real estate to meet your needs and financing options available to help you with your purchase. Contact a local lender in the area to explore your commercial loan options further.
Maine is the easternmost state in the United States. Most of the state is known for its scenery and seafood. Maine has the freshest lobster and clams anywhere in the nation. Maine is also the largest producer of blueberries. It is the largest blueberry producer in the world.
Tourism and outdoor recreation play a major and increasingly important role in Maine's economy. Activities such as snowboarding, sport fishing, and camping are some of the attractions that Maine offers to those who enjoy sports.
The capital of Maine is Augusta, but the largest city in Maine is Portland. Portland's proximity to Boston makes it an important metropolis for the state. Many significant companies have their bases in Maine, including Bank of America, Key Bank, Fidelity Investments, Blue Cross & Blue Shield, and Aetna.
Statistically, Portland has a low unemployment level when compared to national averages and the state average. Portland the surrounding cities also have higher median incomes than most other Maine communities. Some main sites of interest in Portland include the downtown Arts District and the Portland Stage Company, as well as many other small galleries.
You may find Maine an interesting and unique place in which to live or own a business. Perhaps you've considered owning a seafood restaurant. Whatever your choice, you can count on Lender411 to help you find the best commercial mortgage rates.

Avoid an ID3 tag umlaut problem in iTunes 7.7
On a side note, since iTunes 7.7, some tracks mysteriously change their names from title to file name (i.e. iTunes shows "01_My_favorite_song" instead of just "My Favorite Song") but I believe this happened when iTunes updated the DB... I wonder if that's related...

Since news has surfaced that Ken Shamrock is now working as a security guard, many are starting to question his net worth. Some sources are stating that the former UFC champion is worth approximately $1.5 million, but many believe that it is much lower than that.
While it has been years since his heyday as a professional wrestler and actor, sources are stating that Roddy Piper still has a net worth of $4 million right now. The belief is that he made quite a bit of money during his time with WCW and has invested well.
When he made his Impact Wrestling debut last night, Mike Tenay called MVP by that name, which led to speculations as to whether or not TNA will be using that as a permanent moniker. It now appears that the company will be using that name, as he used it during a promo taped for next week.
TNA produced a highly entertaining funeral segment for Aces and Eights, who were forced to split up after Bully Ray was defeated by Mr Anderson at Turning Point.
"....and I'm STILL NOT buying TNA nor would I ever want to affect the team of Mike Tenay and Taz. They have great chemistry and as I have said before they do a great job with what is provided them on their monitor."

OStatic has a collected some great free tools for web developers. We talked about Quanta in an earlier post, but this article reaches beyond just HTML editors. LaunchSplash can be used to generate splash pages while you build. IBM, responsible for the Eclipse IDE, has built Project Zero to encourage web app development; even the IDE is web based. OpenX is an open ad server. Piwik is a free web analytics package. There are also quite a few open source CMS's and sites collecting open source designs.
Free web development tools
Finding sensitive data with freeware
When an organization's network grows to a certain size, its difficult to keep track of every single piece of sensitive information like credit card numbers or social security numbers. In order to find and secure this data, companies often turn to data loss prevention (DLP) services. This is not a viable option for many organizations, though, as DLP services can often be expensive and time-consuming to deploy.
Such organizations are not entirely without options: a recent article on Dark Reading lists several DLP tools authored by teams from various universities, all free to download and use. Programs like The University of Texas at Austin's Sensitive Number Finder and Virginia Tech's Find_SSN were designed to find pieces of data on computers and servers formatted in ways typical to sensitive information (xxx-xx-xxxx for SSNs, for example). This approach can often lead to false positives, so some measure of human control is required. They are also incapable of scanning application servers or other forms of data in transit. Cornell's Spider can scan various application server types using different protocols. When used in conjunction, all of these apps can help secure your data without the expense of outsourcing the job.
GSM remote control project
It's been a while since we'd seen any new SMS/GSM/serial remote interface projects. [Emanuele] sent in his version of a project to do just that. It uses a PIC16F84 and will send or receive commands. A pair of relays provide options for controlling whatever you want to hook it up to. You'll need a login, but he's released the full schematics and firmware. He developed this to find uses for old phones, but an alternative is to pick up a cheap calling card cell and dedicate it to a project like this. This seems like a great way to add an out of band alarm system to your house/car/robotic minion.
Open graphics card available for preorder
The Open Graphics Project has started accepting preorders for their OGD1, a graphics card with a completely open source design. This initial release is billed as a high-end FPGA prototyping kit specifically designed to test computer graphics architectures. The card has two DVI connectors, S-Video, 256MB RAM, and a 64bit PCI-X connector. The core of the system is a Xilinx Spartan-3 XC3S4000 FPGA. A nonvolatile Lattice XP10 FPGA is used to bootstrap the Xilinx at power up. Here's the layout of the specific components.
An open design like this could prove very beneficial to the free software community. The open hardware makes driver development much easier; binary drivers from traditional graphics manufacturers have been very hard to work with in the past. The OGD1 could also be used with CPU architectures that wouldn't be unsupported by normal graphics cards. An FPGA based design means that CPU intensive processes like video decoding could be offloaded to the video card without needing a dedicated chip. There is still a lot of work to be done and at $1500 we're pretty sure most of you won't be buying the first generation. It's still exciting to see traditional PC hardware getting reinvented and opened up. Check out the OGD1's FAQ for more info.
Swarm robotics
Uber-geek [James McLurkin] was in Austin recently demoing his robot swarm. He's on tour with EDA Tech Forum. [McLurkin] has multiple degrees from the MIT AI lab and worked at iRobot for a couple of years. Lately, he has been working on distributed robot computing: robot swarms.
[McLurkin] was an entertaining speaker and had an interesting view of robotics. He is optimistic that robot parts will become more modular, so it will be easier to build them, and more importantly, faster to design them.
Some quotes:
- "There's more sensors in a cockroach's butt than any robot"
- "12 engineer years to design, 45 minutes to build"
- "If it can break your ankle, it's a real [rc] car."
OpenBeacon: Active RFID Platform
The OpenBeacon project is an open source hardware and software active RFID device. OpenBeacon tags consist of 2.4GHz transceivers and a PIC16F684. One use of the project was to create CCC Sputnik to show the downsides to information culled using data mining from large tracking systems. People who chose to participate and wear the Sputnik tags did so voluntarily to create a database of material for further study. The hardware schematics (PDF) for the first version tags as well as the firmware for all versions has been released. Further creative uses of the OpenBeacon project are strongly encouraged.
As a reminder, the 24C3, the 24th Chaos Communication Congress, call for participation ends on October 12th. The theme this year encompasses all hardware projects and more specifically, steampunk themed submissions. Check out the CCC events blog for more information.

Open Letter to
With the summer season here, many of us are off traveling. When our pets remain behind and a pet sitter cannot be found, many pets must stay in a boarding kennel. It is very important to review your pet's vaccinations before leaving them in a kennel. We are happy to review this information with you.
Many things about the vaccination of pets have changed in recent years. These include: type of vaccine, frequency of vaccine, and even where on the body the vaccine is given. (The latter consideration is especially important in cats due to the emergence of vaccine-associated sarcomas in a small proportion of animals.) Your pet may or may not need to be boosted on a yearly basis. Some people choose to check the level of their pet's immunity with vaccine titers (pronounced "tie′-ters). These tests check for protective levels of antibody from previous vaccinations. Based on that level and your vet's recommendation, one can make a decision whether a vaccination is necessary. Also, vaccine reactions, although infrequent, can occur, and your pet should be monitored for any adverse effects. For these reasons we recommend that you review vaccination history prior to kenneling and have vaccinations administered by a veterinary professional.
Remember, too, that immunity after vaccination takes days to develop and vaccines may place stress on your pet's immune system. It is not a good idea to have vaccinations administered at the time your pet enters the kennel. Receiving a vaccine as your pet enters a boarding facility will not protect your pet immediately. This is especially important when considering vaccination for Bordetella, better known as "kennel cough." We recommend that vaccinations be given 10 to 14 days prior to boarding.
So please, before your summer trips, make an appointment or call to check on your pet's vaccination status. We will gladly review this for you and make suggestions as to what needs to be done.

captainsway says: …so you're saying it CAN be applied to rape?
» SFB says: No, I'm saying it's idiotic to imply that a comment about comedic bravery immediately applies to rape jokes. — Ernie @ SFB
clowder-l says: "She proved that everything is funny. And has to be. And she could only do this by giving us her own death as an example. So generous." This piqued my curiosity. Would the staff of this blog say this applies to rape jokes? What this specific quote doesn't mention is context, so it's hard to say if it's implying that it only applies to survivors telling these sort of dark and cathartic jokes. I doubt this set would have been received the same way if told by someone who didnt have terminal cancer.
» SFB says: If you've ever watched Louis C.K.'s show or comedy routines, you'd realize he's the kind of person who can make a joke about anything in any context, under the belief that anything can be funny, though he'd be quick to turn the focus on the unexpected target. My take: You're missing the point of his comment. Instead of thinking that this immediately applies to rape jokes or jokes about genocide or what have you, Louie is saying that great comedy is supposed to challenge you with unexpected contexts and nuances, which is something that Tig Notaro's set did. Instead of looking for ways to tear apart the comment, look at the context and the roots that he was getting at. — Ernie @ SFB
I really hope people keep buying it a lot, so I can have #(&!loads of money, but at this point I think we can safely say that the experiment really worked. If anybody stole it, it wasn't many of you. Pretty much everybody bought it. And so now we all get to know that about people and stuff. I'm really glad I put this out here this way and I'll certainly do it again.Comedian Louis C.K. • Expressing pleasure at the success of his self-produced comedy special, "Live at the Beacon Theater." The comic, currently on an upswing as a result of his hit FX comedy "Louie," did something fairly novel with the release model for the special — he threw it online himself, charged $5 for streaming or a digital download, passed on the DRM, and made a point of asking nicely for people not to throw the video on torrent sites. (Some did, but they were roundly criticized by their Pirate Bay peers.) The result of Louis C.K.'s move? In just its first couple of days on sale, it sold 110,000 copies, leading to $500,000 in sales and $200,000 in pure profit. He puts it like such: "This is less than I would have been paid by a large company to simply perform the show and let them sell it to you, but they would have charged you about $20 for the video." Which means, guys, that Louis C.K. is a genius apparently. source (via • follow)

This recipe also calls for Caramelized Rice Krispies but I was unable to add it because the title was too long. Comes from Fine Cooking, Pierre Hermé. I love all types of rice pudding(you can probably tell because I have posted so many)but this is much more than rice pudding! The rice pudding can be made up to three days ahead, the whipped cream up to two days ahead, the mousse up to two days ahead. The Rice Krispies will keep for up to a month in an airtight container. Gianduja(pronounced john-doo-yah)is chocolate that is blended with ground hazelnuts. I saw this and I had to make sure I didn't lose it -- so here it is.

Could tourists' hunger for whales threaten the species?
Duration: 07:34
Over the last two years international visitors to Iceland have increased by an average of 20% per year.
Many visitors go in search of the country's wildlife and whale watching in the Atlantic Ocean is the most popular pursuit.
But tourists are also keen to try whale meat and it is this demand which may jeopardise the chance of seeing the animals living in their natural environment.

"Exercise should be regarded as a tribute to the heart."
- Gene Tunney
It's day 9 of my health and fitness makeover with Marty the Health Guy. Here's an update.
Fitness Update:
Last weekend I bought a membership to London's newest YMCA. I'm diggin' this facility; it's bright, airy, brand new and squeaky clean. I hit the Y four times this week for 30 – 40 minutes of cardio on the elliptical machine.
I'd never worked out on an elliptical machine before, but I was happy with the results. My heart rate was high and I experienced absolutely no pain in my knees.
My heart rate wasn't as high as Mirela (my personal trainer and nutrition guru) suggested because my butt muscles hurt. But as my muscles get stronger, increasing my heart rate will not be a problem.
I'm loving the cardio. It burns off my extra energy and I feel grounded for the rest of the day. Motivation will not be a problem during this fitness challenge because I look forward to going to the gym.
Nutrition Update:
Mirela's nutrition guidelines work well for me. I LOVE eating every 2 to 3 hours – it makes my body feel safe. I never get so hungry that I overeat, and my energy level is stable and consistent throughout the day. I also noticed that I have absolutely no cravings.
It's also been easy for me to include protein at every meal and snack. I made my own almond butter and hummus this week… yum! My other protein sources include vegan protein powder, nuts, seeds, and legumes.
I stuck to Mirela's food plan for every meal except my dinner on Thursday, which was my birthday meal at a local Mexican restaurant. I ordered a vegan spinach burrito and beans (thumbs up from Mirela!) but I also ate some chips and salsa as an appetizer and a small fried apple burrito for dessert (thumbs down from Mirela!).
I didn't feel guilty about what I ate on my birthday though because I don't want to become so rigid that I can't enjoy a treat once in a while. If I stick to my fitness and nutrition plan 98% of the time, then once in a while I intend to loosen the reins.
The only unfortunate thing about "loosening the reins" was that my birthday dinner was the night before my weigh-in at Elite, so when I went to see Mirella on Friday I was somewhat pissed off to see that I had gained a pound!
This was a surprise because on Thursday, two people asked me if I had lost weight and I also noticed that my jeans were baggy, so despite the numbers on the scale I definitely feel leaner and healthier.
Strength Training:
On Friday I had my first strength training workout with Mirela. It was DIFFICULT. By the end of our session I thought my legs were going to snap off.
During my hour-long workout, I did sit-ups, push-ups, walking lunges, lat rows, step-ups, and squats, among other exercises. I totally understand now why people have personal trainers – I worked ten times harder then I would have on my own.
One of the things I love about having a personal trainer is the encouragement. I work harder because Mirela is beside me, telling me that I'm doing a great job.
I also love having a fitness expert demonstrate the exercise before I do it. And I'm confident I won't get hurt because Mirela is there to tell me immediately if I'm doing something wrong.
After my workout, I had a protein shake and checked in with Marty. Here's a quick video of our conversation:
Will the numbers on the scale budge? Does it matter? Tune in next week to find out. ☺

Beneath the tall palm trees that dot Amelia's SmartyPlants' outdoor garden lies a vast stock of lush plants and vibrant blooms handpicked by an expert staff. The 2-acre independent gardening center amasses plant species both familiar and unusual, helping homeowners beautify their yards and the environment with native florals, ornamental shrubs and trees, and colorful glass garden art that adds color and whimsy to natural plots. Aside from dishing out advice in a monthly newsletter or through their regular in-shop seminars, the plant pros can offer tips on garden design, fertilization, and how to control pests via hypnosis or the shop's selection of organic and synthetic products. An indoor shopping area also awaits to show off shelves stocked with tools and garden accessories––many made in the United States—such as fountains and statues, all waiting to add interest to landscapes or the miniature dioramas of middle-school giants.
Like a community college's brochure, Greenlands has something for everybody. The boutique store stocks high-end cosmetics, skincare products, and vitamins that span the alphabet and then some. As customers hop from aisle to aisle, they'll stumble upon a wide selection of well-loved household goods including Pantene shampoo, diapers, cold medicine, Samsonite luggage, and electronics. A more exotic offering, yoga mats beckon to tense limbs from the tidy shelves. Children's toys beg for the attention of passing toddlers, and Ray-Ban sunglasses stylishly wait to shield eyes from the bright sun.
The licensed pest-control technicians from Florida Pest & Lawn shoo away a wide range of critters such as termites, bedbugs, ants, or rodents from inside and outside homes. The pest-control team takes its orders from Richie Kidwell, an industry veteran who learned from his father Fred, also a pest-control specialist, that bugs require more stern evacuation measures than a polite cough or a cease-and-desist letter. On each visit, a team member makes sure that no bug slips through cracks by performing treatments on both the interior and exterior of the home, inspecting and spraying popular pest hangouts such as around appliances, bathroom fixtures, windows, and garbage cans. To ensure that colonies don't return, the technician also sprays a six-foot barrier around the home's exterior, which effectively keeps all but 6'1" bugs at bay.
In addition to their pest banishing specialty, the team trims and cares for lawns and shrubs to keep yards healthy and verdant, wielding environmentally friendly products to fertilize plants or snuff out unwanted weeds.
Lawn Doctor's roots lead back to the mid 1960s, when friends Bob Magda and Tony Giordano took on the endeavor of treating lawns in their hometown of Matawan, New Jersey. Their local business has since blossomed into a national franchise with more than 400 locations across the United States, each adhering to the mission of enhancing lawns' allure with time-tested techniques and dedicated customer service.
Before professionals begin servicing each property, they arrive at the client's home for a complimentary consultation to gauge the lawn's specific needs. Their lawn care experts can foster healthy growth for grass, trees, and shrubs with fertilizer.

Mike Cox (born 1961) is Michigan's 52nd Attorney General; the first Republican to hold that office since 1955. Cox took office in 2003 and won re-election in 2006, defeating Democratic candidate, Amos Williams, Libertarian Party candidate, Bill Hall, and U.S. Taxpayers Party candidate, Charles Conces. Michigan Governor Jennifer M. Granholm preceded him.
Cox lost the Republican gubernatorial primary election August 3, 2010, coming in third behind Rick Snyder and Pete Hoekstra.
Cox graduated from Detroit Catholic Central High School in 1980. He served in the United States Marine Corps from 1980-83. He graduated from the University of Michigan in 1986, before earning his J.D. from University of Michigan Law in 1989. He worked for the Oakland County Prosecutors' office from 1989–90, then the Wayne County office from 1990–2002, before being elected Attorney General. Cox successfully ran for re-election in 2006, after receiving the Republican party nomination at the August Michigan Republican Party Convention.

Too shy to actually bang?
Let them know they are sexy!
Once again they will never know it came from you.
Your city isn't there? Spread the word and it might make it next time!

We are now signing up a new user every 2 minutes!Thanks everyone!Help us grow faster and tell your co-workers to visit https://beta.bangwithprofessionals.com
Three days ago Bang With Professionals was just one simple idea with a launch page.Today we are live and we hope you'll love it.Any feedback is welcome: info at bangwithprofessionals dot com
Hi all,
We would first like to thank you all for your interest in Bang With Professionals.
To be honest, the whole idea kinda started as a joke. We obviously saw what others were doing, but it was hard for us to think of really hooking up with someone using their services. In our opinion a network such as LinkedIn might be a good place to look when trying to hook up with someone. After all, you spend most of your time at work, so chances are finding someone to hook up with based on your LinkedIn profile might be a good start.
That's when we wondered how far this idea could go. So we created a landing page in an hour or two of work, created a twitter account and we were ready to test the idea. With the feedback we received since, the least we can say is that there seem to be a pretty good market for such an app.
We are currently putting a beta version of our services and it should be up shortly. If you haven't done it yet, make sure you register at http://signup.bangwithprofessionals.com to get notified once it is ready.
The last but not the least, we received some comments about how gross banging was for a network such as LinkedIn. Seriously let's not fool ourselves; banging is an important goal when you're single. Look around and chances are you know couples that started dating at work. At least, by using our services, the intention will be clear on both sides. In the end the path to follow is yours to decide.
Once again thanks for your support.
Bang With Professionals Team

You know that moment when everyone around you is talking about a show, and you have no idea what they're talking about, but you nod your head and pretend like you do? I hate to say it, but that was me with HBO's Girls. It wasn't until I scored an invite to the season 2 premiere party on Wednesday night that I realized just what I was missing out on. (Even the most jaded New Yorkers on my team were acting a little jealous.) Take a peek below at some pictures from inside the party!

Last night was the premiere of the year (at least in our eyes). Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, and Josh Hutcherson (a.k.a. Katniss, Gale, and Peeta) took to the red carpet, with a slew of other Hollywood stars, for the release of the much-anticipated Hunger Games film. We're such huge fans, and literally counting the days till we get to watch the movie next week, that we had to share some of our favorite pictures from the night.
