Enable Backspace in Chromium
Since I discovered that Google doesn't add the backspace support to its Chrome browser to navigate between web pages history, I always tried to find a way to add this shortcut key support to Chromium. I don't like to press two or more keys combo (in this case, alt + left) just to go back one page, especially in the low-light condition when I cannot clearly see the keyboard.
Finally, with the help of an Ubuntu forum I found a Chrome extension called Backspace As Back/Forward for Linux. Once you installed this extension, the backspace key icon () would appear at the end of the URL address bar along with other extensions when the web pages history is available. Note that you need to refresh the existing opened web pages in order to activate the extension.

Professor Pastry or Dessertation (you know… like dissertation…)
Professor Pastry or Dessertation (you know… like dissertation…)
I believe in balance. Sweet and spicy. Work hard, play harder. Naughty or nice (is it time for Christmas yet?). All of a sudden I don't feel so balanced anymore. I suppose it's natural for the scales to tip from time to time.
But as much as life is about balance, it's also about costs. Opportunity costs. It's the natural way of things. As the seconds tick by on my watch, I think about the things I could (or should) be doing instead of writing this post. Tick tock, tick tock, that's the way it goes. It's a dangerous game to get lost in, even for an economist.
Which brings me back to balance, and my blog. I never kept a diary as a young girl. I love to write but gushing to an inanimate object never quite got the juices flowing. In my childhood room you'll find a stack of journals that are intricately decorated on the outside and neglected on the inside. If my mom ever tried to read them after I left for college, she would have been bombarded with headlines about a random sample of events from my life. None of my thoughts fully developed.
But when I sit down with my laptop and open a blank blog post, the words begin to flow freely. Perhaps I really am a product of the technology age. Though my blog doesn't get around now as it did when I was in London, there is something, oh what's the word… dare I say, fun, about typing words into existence and hitting the "post" button. And no matter who reads it or how often I pay attention to it, I will forever have this artifact that I can look through from time to time.
Before that begins to feel creepy because things live on the internet FOREVER…
Dear blog, I now grant your freedom from any purpose other than to serve my unquenchable thirst to wield my literary sword in some outlet other than my scholarly pursuits. Yours truly, S.
12 days of Christmas baking is back tomorrow! Here we go!
I'm sitting in my office, back straight, shoulders relaxed, feet firmly planted on the floor. It doesn't sound comfortable but after your dance teacher yells at you for an entire year because you have bad dance posture and airplane arms, it's unavoidable. The sun is hiding today, giving the room an extra-strong fluorescent tinge. I stare out the window, then to my reflection in the computer screen, and back outside.
I avoid looking over my right shoulder, where 38 papers in need of grading await. A bright red pen resting beside them. Oh the joys of procrastination. Yes, even in grad school. In fact, even more so in grad school.
I direct my gaze back to the computer screen, which is now black and sleeping. As the screen comes to, I take a deep breath in and place my fingers on the keyboard. I'm playing Clair de lune on a beautiful baby grand. Instead, words appear on the screen. Words, then sentences, then paragraphs. Slow and steady. Click, click, click.
Graduation. Hear me r-o-a-r.
Try saying that three times fast.
Then wait until tomorrow for me to tell you what it means.
I really dislike Mondays. The ones after an awesome weekend at home (I saw Saturn from my backyard!) are especially glum. Of particular annoyance is the time spent in the elevator, stopping on far too many floors and stuffing itself full of far too many people. In an effort to be a cheery passenger, I remembered an elevator conversation from some Mondays ago.
I appreciate the little things, like a smile when you pass in the hallway or acknowledgement of my existence while waiting for or in the elevator. If you don't know how it feels to wait awkwardly in the middle of five elevators, waiting for one of them to open its door and then to be the last one to get off of the elevator… come to work with me one day. The elevator can be the reason I am late to a meeting or late to class, or early on those rare occasions when it shoots up to the 25th floor without stopping… that, is bliss.
On a chilly Monday morning, my caffeine-deprived but still jittery self hopped onto the elevator to go to a meeting. A few floors down the mailman hopped on and we exchanged the usual greetings. I mentioned something about it being a Monday because caffeine-deprived ones are the worst, and I appreciate people who share that dislike with me. I don't enjoy complaining but if we meet on a Monday, all bets are off. In reply the mailman said, "Well, without Monday, Tuesday would never come. So thank God for Mondays!" He is a consistently happy old man, and the conviction with which he made that statement instantly made me thankful for Mondays too! Logically I know that without Monday, the rest of the week would not come to be. And I know we should be thankful for each and every day we are given. Today's elevator conversation reminded me of that and made me thankful for that Monday… yes, only that one :)
Oh dearest blog of mine, it's been a while. The truth of the matter is, well, I miss you! I miss writing. The most writing I do these days is via e-mail. I should be doing a lot of dissertation writing, but that seems to come with automatic writer's block. Despite having installed the Tumblr app on my phone almost immediately after I jumped on the iPhone wagon, I have resorted to taking notes on my phone during moments of inspiration.
it's an unusually cold, rainy night. It's hard to believe that the year is nearly half over. I find myself reflecting on life as a 25 year old, only two months away from 26. In recent years there have been two friends' birthdays that have been cause for reflection of my personal relationship with my increasing age- one in December and the other in April. We are a day away from the April reflection date so tonight's happy hour may be the reason for an early start to my scheduled introversion.
On that note, as I get older sleep is becoming more important… and harder to come by! Goodnight dear blog, till we meet again.
Powerful in small spaces, yet with profound effect on distance. Love defies time, outliving both its source, and its object. Love is faster than light, for light requires time in order to travel through space. But love reaches its object instantaneously.
Love journeys forever, into infinity. And it's here, binding together two lives."
— Larry Fleinhardt, professor of theoretical physics on Numb3rs"—
A weekly one-hour doctoral seminar is a great thing. It's long enough to share and discuss relevant issues, and enough time to whine and complain about your committee or how much you hate your topic. As the hour comes to an end, you're relieved to be another week closer to the end, or you're stressed that you still have revisions to complete. Will it ever end? Either way, the group offers support. We even bake for each other these days. Submitted your proposal? Brownies for all! Proposal approved? Cookies for all! IRB approval? That one calls for something stronger. And so we continue down the yellow brick road to academic sainthood.
This week's discussion revolved around issues of organization: how does one keep references in check? How does one manage complex data sets? What tools are available? A colleague mentioned that despite the availability, ease and usefulness of online organizational tools (OneNote, Dropbox, RefWorks, etc.), nothing could replace the act of printing articles or data output and making hand-written notes. She blamed it on her age. Being at least ten years her junior, I piped up to happily dispel that notion because I too loved printing, highlighting, note-taking and lugging around a ream of paper. The conversation evolved to the matter of how much paper we were wasting, and horror filled our faces. I religiously print double-sided, two pages per sheet, and still I have mountains of paper hidden in multiple crates in my apartment.
So in an effort to thank Mother Earth for her resources, I promise to plant one tree for every month I spend working on my dissertation. It won't happen now, it is unlikely that it will happen all at once, but it's been added to my bucket list.
I know it's not a lot, and it will take years for these trees of mine to grow. Maybe they won't be cut down and used to make paper. Maybe they will stand tall and strong to provide shade for someone, a perch for a bird's nest, or simply as a reminder of the beauty of nature. Whatever the case, I have come to dispel the notion of waiting for the right time to make big things happen; instead, make the small things count more.

12/12/12 was magical. Special enough for my Christmas Cookie Exchange, special enough for a dear friend's engagement, and so many other little joys. In searching for the perfect holiday desserts, I decided to take up the 12 day of baking challenge… mostly because school is out and all I want to do is bake, and because there were too many recipes to choose from!
So… now it's time to get creative. So many goodies yet to come!
It's 8 a.m. on the first Tuesday of school. Dr. G is nowhere to be found and I'm half-asleep and yet so anxious. I keep twisting my coffee mug in my hands, not drinking any of it (boy I wish I had). I didn't have time to drink any at home, barely had time to stuff my face with an English muffin. Oh, I woke up plenty early but I was still running late. Typical.
Just a typical morning, until the elevator dinged and Dr. G stepped out looking frazzled. "Is my hair still wet?" she asked. We exchanged big smiles and a few words and headed into the classroom. FIFTY students staring at me, in my blazer and pastel print dress, wondering who I was and what they had gotten themselves into. Many were still fighting to keep their eyes open. At least I wasn't alone.
I was given the amazing opportunity to co-teach with my favorite professor. That's right, co-teach. With Dr. G?! Yeah, I had the same reaction. It's a dream I never had, but still a dream come true. Tuesday morning was the first time we had truly worked together, and it fit. Her obvious passion for teaching put me at ease and our banter came naturally. One big class being taught by two big nerds… for a moment I felt sorry for our 50 colleagues. Oh well.
Every week I'll share with you the trials and tribulations of one of the coolest opportunities of my academic career. I want to be a professor when I grow up. That journey has officially begun.
Currently devouring "The Lacuna" by Barbara Kingsolver.
I had a simple realization yesterday, smack in the middle of my gelato-induced sugar high (second time in a week). I think it's what I've been searching for all summer without really knowing it; it just clicked. A conversation with my sister sparked a train of thoughts about the difference between loneliness and learning to being happy when doing things on your own. Being busy can distract you from paying attention to the loneliness factor, especially when there are endless articles to read, papers to write and data begging to be analyzed. Being hundreds of miles away from your best friends only makes it worse, especially when you get back from adventuring with them around the country, plotting to take over the world (to make it better, obviously). I grew up not having time to even begin to think about the word lonely or to think about doing things alone. Consequently, I love spending time with people and always had an overload of people to do things with. Totally my mom's fault. Somewhere along the way, probably when I moved to a city I hated, to live by myself for the first time, where the only person I knew was my dad, I learned to really do things on my own. I knew it but refused to accept it or let it get in the way, I was lonely in Houston. It's expected under such circumstances I suppose. I didn't know what to do with it. I had friends, we did fun things, I was close enough to go home, and still something wasn't right.
At 24 I tried to crawl out of it. 25 hit and I freaked out.
When I turned 21 I said I didn't feel 21. When I turned 24, I sounded like a broken record. And then 25 happened. The truth is, I don't know how to "feel" 25. I keep thinking back to my 16th and 18th birthdays, dreaming with friends about how settled and grown up we would be by 24. How simple things would be. I yearned for it. How we would be brave enough to stand up for our dreams, and take responsibility for our decisions. At the ripe young age of 25, I will continue to freak out about getting old, keeping my fingers crossed that my mom's metabolism sticks with me for as long as it's been with her. But "feeling" 25 is the realization that I will always stick by Me. That's a lot to look forward to!
So in honor of the above word vomit, I'd like to dedicate this post to Me. I don't know where you went, but thanks for coming back- stronger and fiercer than ever before.
For all you bookies out there, this is an exception blog about books, quotes, amazing library and bookstores, and so much other book-related goodness. Take a look!
Dearest Blog,
I miss you! I think about you constantly. I know it's been a while, and it's totally my fault. I promise to write soon.
Love always,
I know I talk crap on being a twentysomething but I'm only half-kidding. In actuality, there's no age I'd rather be. (Besides maybe seven years old because they don't do anything besides eat ice cream and poop themselves. That sounds like an ideal life to be completely honest.)
Being in your twenties is all about discovering which things hurt you and what makes you feel good. You go in blindly, practically pricking yourself with a dull blade, and then you walk out with tougher skin. One day you'll stop pricking yourself altogether. Maybe. I don't know. How would I? I'm just a twentysomething, remember?
This is what your twenties are for — to feel and see as much as you can, to take advantage of not being tied down to anything and anyone and to go balls to the wall with everything that you do. You're a raw nerve. You hate getting upset over little things, about being constantly unraveled by ignored text messages, parents, grades, and friends, but you have to remember something: you don't know yourself entirely yet. Before the age of 20, you were mostly under your parents care, a reflection of what was going on around you. You didn't have the option to make your own choices. You were merely living the life someone set out for you. Being in your twenties allows you to start carving out the life you want for yourself. Everything is on your terms now which seems daunting but is actually liberating. For the first time in your life you're the boss.
It's important to talk about why your twenties are great because it seems like we spend so much of our time wanting to be somewhere else other than where we are. Think about it. Why the hell are we in such a hurry to live some boring grown up adult life that we saw at a Crate & Barrel? Because once we do get there, we're stuck for a long time. The novelty's going to wear off, we're going to get married and have babies, and everything will be amazing but don't think for a second that you won't be nostalgic for this time. Don't think for a second that you're not going to miss those nights you spent putting on your make up, changing five million times, drinking wine, smoking cigarettes out your apartment window, and going to some silly party, a party that feels like all the others you've been to but still has the right to feel special. You will miss all of this. This is a luxury. It's going to leave us eventually so you better freaking enjoy it. You better enjoy every lame ass party, every awkward kiss, every 5 AM hangover, every drug experience, every crappy apartment, because one day it will all be gone and you'll just be left with the pictures and the bruises and nothing else. Youth is fu**ing magic. Don't you get it? Look at your skin! Touch it. Look at your smooth legs and stomach. Grab it. When you're older, you'll want all of this again so bad. You'll possibly spend so much money to get some semblance of it back. Now it's yours for free.
We're not stuck. Even if it feels like we are, it's not true. We're the opposite of stuck. As twentysomethings, we're constantly moving — apartments, relationship, cities, jobs. Anything is possible. People are ready for you. They want to hear what you have to say. They look at you and are curious about what words are going to come out of your mouth. You're the new generation. What do you have to say? Don't bite your tongue. One day you'll be pushed aside for a younger "fresher" perspective so you better get it out now. Make a mark. Make a stain. Make something.
I want to remember the fear, I want to remember the promise, I want to remember the nights I wanted to curl up in a ball, I want to remember the people I'm not supposed to remember, I want to remember not knowing myself, I want to remember the moment I started to feel safe and like this life I'm leading is really mine. I'm going to be scared, I'm going to bruise my knees and not know how they got there, I'm going to try to fruitlessly forge a connection with someone who won't ever get it, I'm going to lose the person that means the most to me and find my way back to them. I'm going to be a twentysomething because that's what I am and all I know how to be. And you should too. You should love every single moment of this hot mess of a decade. Chances are you'll miss it before you even get to say "I'm 30.
One of my favorite events in Houston is the annual Art Car Parade. Art, politics, family, fun, funky, voice, history, community, oh I could go on and on. To read about the history of the parade and the host, the Orange Show Foundation, click here: http://www.thehoustonartcarparade.com/art-car-parade/
After six hours of pouring monsoon rain, hail, howling winds, tornado warnings, bright flashes of lightning and rumbling thunder, the clouds parted and the 25th annual Art Car Parade was a go! Here are just a few photos from this year's parade. If you're ever in town in May, it's a must-see city-wide event! To see this year's parade entries, click here: http://www.thehoustonartcarparade.com/2012-featured-art-cars/
To open the show, Mayor Annise Parker in her new ride!
Texas pride.
A hamster wheel for humans.
The coolest of them all.
There was music. And trout and lobsters dancing in sync.
Ah, Saturday morning memories :)
New meaning to the phrase "road trip."
What a hoot.
Best parade-goers.
I love this city. There, I said it.
The best three minutes of your day. Watch the trailer for this beautiful film about memories and the irreplaceable role that art plays in our lives. Ps. The film is directed and produced by my dear friend Petra!
ELENA recounts the journey of Petra, a young Brazilian woman who dreams of becoming an actress but is warned not to do so by her mother. Against all admonitions, Petra moves to New York City where the reasons she was advised against this path begin to unfold. Her older sister Elena went to New York at the age of 19 to pursue her acting career and fell into a deep depression.
While Petra discovers who Elena was and what led to her depression, she starts to identify with Elena and her drama. Petra's mother then comes to New York and mother and daughter retrace to the darkest moments Elena's past so deeply entangled in their own. As the past unravels, the knots loosen, allowing space slowly for each to come to her own.
Intimate in style, the film delves into the abyss of one family's drama, revealing at once the inspiration that can be born from tragedy. ELENA thus becomes an invitation to dance with our inconsolable memories, those for which there is no solace but in the openings offered by art.

Deal of the Day: 4-week free Blockbuster Online (Blu-ray and games included!)
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Home Entertainment, Hot Deals, Video Games
We like today's Deal of the Day because it doesn't really get much better than free. Today you can get a 4-week free trial to Blockbuster Total Access, the company's Netflix competitor. What's cool about this offer is that Blockbuster typically only allows for a 2-week trial, so this one is twice as long. Even better? They are including Blu-ray and video game rentals in the trial as well. So basically you get a free month of DVD, Blu-ray, and video game (Wii, Xbox 360, PS3) rentals by mail, and you get to keep 3 discs out at a time.

Our constant effort should be to reach as many persons as possible… But our first responsibility is not to make converts but to uphold the honor of God in a world given over to the glory of fallen man. No matter how many persons we touch with the gospel we have failed unless, along with the message of invitation, we have boldly declared the exceeding sinfulness of man and the transcendent holiness of the Most High God. They who degrade or compromise the truth in order to reach larger numbers, dishonor God and deeply injure the souls of men.

mailing list archives
Hello All,
Just wanted to say I have enjoyed this list and the insight that it
brings since it was started. Thanks to everybody who takes the time to
respond. That being said, the company I work for is looking to
outsource and external Black Box and/or White Box pen test. We have
been talking to a few local companies, but we are intersted in seeing
who is out there at a national level. We have a general scope of what
we want done. I was hoping that at least somebody that is a regular
reader of this list is in the business or knows somebody that is.
If you or somebody you know can provide this service, I would be
interested in hearing from you. We have this budgeted for this year and
would like to proceed by the end of the thrid quarter 2005. Please

"Top Chef Recaps" Recaps: Episode 4.5 "The Elements"
Check your scorecard — After all the ingredients are
sampled, it's time to see how they did. The worst: Stephanie, with six out of
15 right. The best: runners-up Ryan and Jennifer, with 11 out of 15 each.
Zoi: I'm a little irritated that Jen beat me. I want
to be able to have bragging rights, you know. Whatever, she beat me by one.
Oh, but you know she's
going to lord that one point over you for years to come, honey.
Who won the challenge? Antonia with 12 out of 15. So she and
her blindfold fetish good palate win immunity.
You're a shining star — Next, Padma lays out the Elimination Challenge. Sadly, there are
no blindfolds involved. Instead, they will be cooking for the Meals on Wheels
Chicago Celebrity Chef Ball. The charity event is catered by the city's best
chefs. They will create the second through fourth courses, and the cheftestants
must work in teams to cook the first course.
Chef Tsai gives them a few words of advice: Keep it simple,
execute it perfectly, and "taste, taste, taste — and that comes from your
They will be cooking based on the evening's theme of "The
Four Elements," so each dish will be inspired by earth, water, fire and
air. At this point I start humming an Earth, Wind & Fire
song. What? You know you did too, don't lie.
They draw knives to break into four teams of three. Who got
what? Water: Richard, Andrew, Mark. Air:
Jennifer, Ryan, Nikki. Fire: Dale, Stephanie, Lisa. Earth: Zoi, Spike, Antonia.
They get 15 minutes to plan their menus.
A periodic tabling of elements — Jennifer on Team Air
immediately thinks of making a bird-based dish of duck or chicken: "something
that flies." Um, I hate to break this to you, but chickens don't really
fly all that well.
Team Earth wrestle with what to make as well. Spike suggests
butternut squash soup. Antonia thinks soup is too basic for the team's $500
grocery budget and won't showcase quality enough. Zoi agrees, but Spike still
isn't convinced. He says that with Antonia's immunity, it's Zoi and him with
the most to lose. I hate to say this, but Spike and his stupid hat have a
They decide on beef carpaccio instead. I don't know why that
says earth, exactly. I mean, I guess cows walk on the earth.
Over at Team Fire, they are being true to their name and
fiery in their discussion about what to make. Dale wants to do a seared beef
tartar wrapped around a deviled egg. But Lisa is "totally not having it."
Hello, showdown.
In the grocery store, the chefs pore over the ingredients.
Team Water decide to make poached salmon. Get it? Fish cooked in water. Groan.
Team Air decide on duck, which could have just as easily gone to Team Water.
But, hey, at least it's more aerodynamic than a chicken.

Residents of and visitors to Camden who want to eat in an outdoor setting may get more of a chance to do so if Camden City Council passes an ordinance creating a new chapter to the city's code of ordinances. First reading of the ordinance is scheduled for Tuesday night.
Every year the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) proclaims April as Fair Housing Month. The purpose of this designation is to celebrate the passage of the Fair Housing Act in 1968. During this month HUD reaches out to the public with the message that "every person has the right to equal choices in housing." In the same way, the city of Camden wants the public to be knowledgeable about fair housing and related practices by defining fair housing, stating what it protects and describing why it's important.
Dozens of legislators filed into the large meeting room at the Blatt Building, greeted by Camden Mayor Tony Scully, members of Camden City Council and city staff Thursday morning. It was City of Camden Day at the S.C. State House, the first ever for Kershaw County's principal municipality.
It's not often that one city government agency bestows an award on an employee of another in the same city. That's what happened at Camden City Council's April 9 regular meeting when the Camden Fire Department (CFD) paid tribute to Camden Police Department (CPD) Patrolman J.R. Scott.
Consider: for 65 years, Grover Gaskin's Lion's roar has run strong, loud and proud. Born in 1918, Lions Club International's first anniversary, he is only one year younger than the world's largest service organization.
A single, five-day go-kart event could have a big financial impact on Camden and Kershaw County if the Carolina Motorsports Park (CMP) hosts a national race in 2014.
By day, Howard Paul sits behind his desk as President and CEO of Benedetto Guitars Inc. in Savannah, Ga.
On Tuesday, March 26, Camden Route 5 City Carrier, Robert Mitchell joined a very exclusive group when he received the National Safety Council's highest award for safe driving, the Million Mile Award.
Blue skies and more spring-like temperatures than recently greeted an overflow crowd Friday afternoon at the Camden Archives and Museum to witness the unveiling of life-size statues of Camden natives Bernard Baruch and Larry Doby. Estimates placed those attending at more than 200, with many standing after that number of seats filled up under a large tent near the edge of Broad Street.
There's one thing that's been a staple at the Carolina Cup as long as the horses have been. It's not the extravagant hats or the pastel colors. It's the Redfearns.
Camden City Council spent much of both its Tuesday afternoon work session and regular meeting that evening discussing whether or not to appropriate $187,000 in local source revenue to Historic Camden Revolutionary War Site. Historic Camden Foundation Executive Director Tray Dunaway -- in full 18th century regalia -- made a presentation on one of its two requests during the regular meeting.
The Camden Police Department (CPD) will block off a portion of Broad and Laurens streets today at about 2:20 p.m. for the unveiling of "Reconciliation," featuring life-size statuary of Larry Doby and Bernard Baruch on the lawn of the Camden Archives and Museum.
You can't always have what you want, at least not when it comes to budgeting. Whether a personal, business or government budget, there are some things you just have to leave out. That was the case during a March 20 Camden City Council budget work session.
The city of Camden expects to receive $702,000 in local source revenue during its next fiscal year, which starts July 1. The majority of those funds -- an estimated $620,000 -- will come from the city's 2 percent hospitality tax (HTAX). How to use those funds was the subject of some debate during a special afternoon-long Camden City Council budget work session Wednesday.
(The online version of this story has been updated to correctly show that asbestos mitigation and demolition of the Maxway building would be paid for out of a fund created by the 2000 sale of city watershed property, as will the purchase of the building. Hospitality taxes would only be used to transform the property into the proposed "pocket park.")
This house on Fair Street, owned by Greg Stroud and his family, is ready to greet trick-or-treaters tonight for Halloween. See more spooky examples of what you'll find walking around Camden -- along with other ghastly treats -- see our Localife section.
No trick. No treat.
"This is a town of ghosts … and people like ghosts," Historic Camden Revolutionary War Site Executive Director Joanna Craig said about Camden.
A team which will include Kershaw County School District (KCSD) Superintendent Dr. Frank Morgan, KCSD attorneys, Camden High School (CHS) Principal Dan Matthews and CHS head football coach and athletic director Jimmy Neal will appeal the Bulldogs football team's post-season ban before the S.C. High School League (SCHSL) Executive Committee at 2 p.m. Thursday in Columbia.
The Fine Arts Center (FAC) of Kershaw County is responding to claims of censorship after the owner of a Columbia art gallery issued a press release following the opening of an exhibit in Camden.
The Kershaw County School District (KCSD) and Camden High School will appeal the S.C. High School League's (SCHSL) decision concerning the incident that followed the Camden High-Dreher High football game on Oct. 17.
Camden City Council will use part of its meeting Tuesday evening to hold a public hearing to gather public input on an ordinance it is considering that would allow the city to issue a no more than $4 million bond. A copy of Tuesday's agenda did not state the purpose would be for the $4 million. City Manager Mel Pearson was unavailable to answer questions by deadline Friday.

Scully said Mexicans now comprise 9 percent of North Carolina's population and are its second largest trading partner, generating $25 million per day. "Hispanics in South Carolina are 5.3 percent of the population, almost half a million people," Scully said, "with a growth rate of 154 ...

I applied online and got a quick response for an interview. I wasn't aware that Bloomies were going to have 3 people interview me that day. One by HR manager, another one by the store manager and last one by department manager. They all seemed pre-occupied with whatever that was going on at the store. Perhaps, not enough people in the management?! Not to mention, besides the HR manager, the other managers were not aware of meeting with me. (HR manager happened to ask them very last moment.) I was interviewed by all of them separately. Questions were the usual retail ones...

October 31 2014 Latest news:
Former March man David Cox who died in an accident in Derbyshire
Elaine King
Tuesday, January 29, 2013
A FORMER March man died after both his car and his wife's car skidded off the road and plunged into an icy Derbyshire river as they drove their children to school.
David Cox, 42, was trapped in his vehicle, but his 11-year-old daughter managed to escape from the blue Toyota Aygo.
Mr Cox's wife Ruth and their nine-year-old son Ioan also managed to escape from their overturned vehicle in the River Wye near Buxton, which had come to rest within feet of Mr Cox's car.
Mrs Cox and a neighbour frantically tried to free Mr Cox, but it was 40 minutes before he was taken to the river bank. He died later at Stepping Hill Hospital in Stockport.
Mr Cox was born in March, but moved to Peterborough while still at primary school. He is the son of March man Roy Cox and his ex-wife Elizabeth Gilby.
He worked for the BBC as part of the Future Media team in Salford, and his job entailed coverage of the London Olympics, for the corporation's red button service.
Acting BBC director general Tim Davie paid tribute to Mr Cox. He said: "We are very sad to learn of David's tragic death. He was a popular member of the Future Media team in Salford and had been key to the success of the red button service during the Olympics in the summer.
"Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues here at the BBC at this difficult time."
Roux Joubert, BBC head of TV and mobile platforms, said: "David was an important member of the team and played a central role in the department.
"He will be sorely missed by everyone here and our thoughts are with his family at this time."
An investigation into the accident has been launched by Derbyshire police.

Narrow ranges and light volumes are the subject of a recent blog post by Brett Steenbarger in which he talks about the impact of such market conditions on trader performance. Brett's specific focus is on stocks, but as I've written before, low volatility has been a feature of multiple markets such as interest rates and the USD.
Specific attention has recently turned to the VIX. As can be seen in the daily chart below, the so-called Fear Index has reached its lowest level since the first part of 2013. When the VIX is low it tends to make some market observers nervous, getting them looking for stocks to take a tumble.
We've seen quite a few low VIX readings in the last couple of years, and they have indeed generally been followed by some kind of market reversal. While those downside moves have at times been quite sharp, they've never done any real technical damage and the overall trend has remained positive. In fact, the high volatility episodes have tended to be relatively brief, which is often a good indication of a strong trend. Still, a quick 5% drop like we saw the S&P 500 experience early this year is something which can rattle traders- perhaps even more so in a situation like we're in now where at least part of the market is quite sensitive to the idea that we're due for a reversal.
While I certainly can envision the S&P 500 experiencing a sharp sell-off at some point in the not too distant future, I'm not overly worried at this point about a major top developing. The market psychology doesn't really feel excessively positive to me here. I will, however, be keeping an eye on how the ranges in the currency and yield markets eventually resolve, as they will certainly play a part of the future direction – and amplitude – of the stock market's path forward.

Transform your tap water with the Brita Slim Water Filter Pitcher. The Brita Slim comes with a filter that reduces unpleasant tastes and odors from Chlorine often found in tap water. The narrow shape and 5-cup capacity make this pitcher perfect for small families with limited space in the kitchen.
The Brita Slim Water Filter Pitcher arrives with one activated carbon and ion-exchange resin filter that decreases chlorine taste and odor, zinc, copper, mercury, and cadmium* often found in tap water. One Brita filter can replace up to 300 standard 16.9-ounce water bottles, saving you money while saving the planet waste.
Designed for easy use, this water filter pitcher has a removable lid. When it is time to refill, pop off the lid and slip the pitcher under your tap. Maintaining the filter's best performance is simple as well with the sticker filter indicator that helps you keep track of when you need to change the water filter.
Your water filter pitcher can be ready for use in just a few steps. Wash your hands before touching the water filter, then soak it upright for 15 minutes in cold water. Rinse under running tap water and insert the filter into the reservoir, lining up the groove in the filter with the notch in the reservoir. Add cold tap water. The first three pitchers of filtered water may contain carbon dust and can be used on plants or discarded. The filter indicator reminds you to replace the water filter every 40 gallons or two months.**

Flavor Pairing: COFFEE + ORANGE
I have been making my way through Niki Segnit's brilliant book The Flavour Thesaurus. It has been so useful and inspiring that I started to do drawings based on some of the flavor pairings throughout the book.
Not twenty one pages in, I came across the coffee section and under it, a recipe for orange and coffee-bean liqueur. Adapted from one by Patricia Wells, who I admittedly had to look up, only to discover that she is so my kind of lady: dividing her time between Paris and Provence and dedicating a whole book to salad as a meal.
The recipe calls for an orange, 44 coffee beans, 44 sugar cubes and 500ml of a clear high proof alcohol. And then you let it sit in a jar for 444 days. Niki Segnit describes the recipe calling for such particulars with "marvelously arbitrary bossiness". So I respected all of these measures and sourced the finest of ingredients.
The oranges I used were from the citrus trees at Montalvo Arts Center where I am currently staying.
Now, with all arbitrary bossiness aside, here is what you do:
Take the orange and make 44 slits in it. Put a coffee bean in each (this part is extraordinarily satisfying and sticky!) and you should have what looks like a work of art.
The coffee I used was Giant Steps, but you could try a variety really. I towered the sugar cubes.
Put 44 sugar cubes in a jar and place your masterpiece in the jar atop the sugar tower and pour in the alcohol. You can use brandy or rum or vodka. (I used Hangar 1 Vodka, which is quite a nice vodka with quite a nice story and made inside a hangar in Alameda). Then leave it for 444 days, agitating it from time to time to be sure the sugar dissolves.
I don't know what the folks at Hangar 1 would think of what I have done to their Straight Vodka, but it is what it is now.
I was going to try to wait for 44 days to post this (because clearly there is some significance to the number 44), but today is Friday. And it might rain tomorrow. And March is the last month that oranges are in season here until November. And it's almost 5 o'clock somewhere, so maybe you are already getting your bar on and want to try something new.
This batch will be ready on May 29th, 2015. So mark your calendars. We hope to launch this magic orange liqueur in a cocktail on the rooftop at SFMOMA if all goes according to plan.

The state of Florida is ground zero in the battle to protect your right to defend yourself with a firearm inside of and outside of your home.
Florida Governor Rick Scott established a "task force" to look at the state's Stand Your Ground law in the wake of the Trayvon Martin shooting, even though all the facts of the case are not yet known.
The anti-gun voices within the taskforce are certain to call at least for a repeal of the Stand Your Ground law, the Castle Doctrine law, and maybe even the state's concealed carry law.
Billionaire Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York is leading the charge to repeal pro-Second Amendment laws of the Sunshine State. He knows if he's successful in Florida, he can then go to work dismantling Second Amendment rights in other states as well.
The time to fight back is now, and the place is Florida. GOA is leading that effort by petitioning Gov. Rick Scott to reject efforts to repeal the state's pro-self-defense laws and to stand firmly in support of the Second Amendment.
Even if you don't live in Florida, please sign the petition below. If we can hold off the attacks on our gun rights there, we may avert battles in other states.
WHEREAS anti-gun New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg has called for a repeal of Florida's pro-gun Stand Your Ground law;
WHEREAS the New York Times – always willing to jump on anti-gun causes – has demanded that the Florida "Stand Your Ground law should be [put] on trial..."
WHEREAS anti-gun zealots would take us back to the "bad ol' days" in 2003 -- when a 78 year-old man was taken through the wringer by the legal system because he shot a man breaking into his trailer – and a 71 year-old-man was almost destroyed by the legal system because he used a gun to defend his 63 year-old friend against thugs who were trying to rob him;
WHEREAS in the four years for which we have statistics since the Stand Your Ground law was passed in Florida, homicides have dropped by 16.1%;
WHEREAS this is faster than the national average;
WHEREAS this means that many – perhaps hundreds – of Floridians are alive today because criminals have had to pause before robbing or killing them;
WHEREAS in most cases, criminals have had to pause not because a victim pulled a gun, but because the killer didn't know whether or not the victim had a gun;
WHEREAS Florida will be the test case to see whether anti-gunners can use the threats of riots and lynchings to force repeal of America's pro-gun laws;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that we call upon Florida Governor Scott to reject efforts to repeal Florida's Stand Your Ground law.

The Obama Administration today issued new suspensions on deepwater drilling on the OCS that will last until Nov 30, 2010.
Last week a federal appeals court rejected the federal government's effort to impose an offshore deepwater drilling moratorium, opening the door to resumed drilling in the Gulf while the legal fight continues.
Today, Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar directed the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEM) to issue new suspensions of deepwater drilling on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS), saying a pause is needed to ensure that oil and gas companies first implement adequate safety measures to reduce the risks associated with deepwater drilling operations and are prepared for blowouts and oil spills.

UMW ROUNDUP: Eagles split baseball opener
The University of Mary Washington baseball team opened its 2013 season—the first for new manager Wayne Riser—with a home doubleheader split against Hampden–Sydney.
The Eagles dropped the opener, 1–0, but won the nightcap, 2–0.
Jono Haught and Seth Jordan had RBIs for Mary Washington in the sixth inning of the second game to break a scoreless tie. Michael Straub scattered five hits and two walks in five innings of work.
Colonial Forge graduate Jake Black earned the save with three strikeouts in the seventh inning.
Torey Mancari took the loss in the opener, allowing five hits in 6 innings. Connor Finnerty had two singles in that game.
The Eagles host Eastern Mennonite University next Saturday for a noon doubleheader.

Free to Good Home: iPod Nano
Do you want an iPod Nano, specifically an iPod Nano 8G sent out by Westlaw as part of their recent WestlawNext promotion? Because I sure as Hell don't.
I've waited a week and I can't a definitive answer on whether or not my initial plan to auction off the iPod and donate the proceeds to charity is allowable. And honestly? I've had just about enough hassles this week and I'm sure any money changing hands with this thing would just be more trouble than it would be worth. I have been in contact with West throughout this process and they said it is mine to dispose of as I wish.
So I'm giving the sucker away.
Here's how it's gonna work: You want the iPod? Leave a comment here with a valid email address that I can contact you at. (Don't worry, you don't have to write it out so everyone can see it..I'll see it if you put it in when you leave the comment . You don't have to even leave your real name publicly if you want a Westlaw iPod on the DL.) You have until 12:01 am, Saturday February 13, 2010. At that time I'll randomly select a comment and notify the winner. I'll even ship it to you out of my own pocket.
Please note: any comment that calls me a name that rhymes with "punt" or "witch" will be automatically disqualified from the raffle and not published per my blog comment policy.
I have an iPhone, but I'm not a real expert on apple products. I guess it's a real nifty whiz bang sort of gadget. You can read the specs on it here. It's 8G, orange, shoots and shows video. Retail value $149. As you can see in the picture of the back, it does have "compliments of WestlawNext" written on it. I guess there's some sort of advertisement also pre-loaded on it, but I haven't watched it. I've not even taken it out of the box except to get the picture you see here.
So, free iPod. Woo.
(EDITED TO ADD: Just to be clear, I'm going to assign each comment a number (e.g. 1 – 57) and have a friend pick a number between 1 and 57. The winning number gets the iPod. So you can leave your thoughts, comments, etc in addition to your name, but it really is going to be a random drawing.)
41 Comments on Free to Good Home: iPod Nano
Me me me me.
As someone who does not use Westlaw products and therefore would not fall under any influence from them, I'd be happy to take it off your hands.
Hey Sarah, don't forget us law catalogers that weren't in the loop! Thanks!
Dang, I knew I shoulda stayed up late. Late to bed and late to rise makes a man gadgetwise.
since I'm too cheap and too still annoyed at Apple DRM to actually buy an ipod, I guess this would be a way to get one without feeling quite so guilty
It may be too late to suggest this, but have you considered just giving it to a charitable organization? There may be some libraries that have iPods for check out, for instance, or some charity might be holding an auction in the future and then they could take care of the auction-related headaches.
Regardless, I wanted to let you know that I really appreciate your posts of late. Very thought-provoking!
Well, I'm a medical librarian who has never and probably never will use Westlaw, so no influence there. Although it's sort of scarlet letter (or should that be orange letter) with its branding, it has a great story behind it for teaching ethics to any librarians or lawyers who might ask about it (I doubt the guys on the bus would know what Westlaw was at all). Anyway, regardless of where it goes, your posts have been great about it. Good luck.
What Krista and "me" say goes here as well. It's increasingly unlikely that I'll ever cough up my own bucks for any Jobs-anointed product, and I neither write about nor work with Westlaw products. But I'd take it–although JKBeitz has an excellent suggestion.
hope my number is the random one chosen.
check it!
Pick me. How do you get on that list for a free ipod?!
I would like a free ipod. I would take "special" videos with it just for you. That's right: cartwheels, baby.
I'm glad I don't have to deal with this issue but I appreciate your posts on the subject.
please to pick this entry
What can I say? I'm cheap!
I think it is a topic worth discussing and I've appreciated your posts on this.
I'd love the iPod! I'll listen to it while still being impartial and slightly resenting West, promise!
The comments are amusing me. I am an LIS student. I wonder if I am risking corruption by putting myself into the drawing? I guess if I am lucky enough to win, I will just give it to my son as he is sans iPod and his favorite color is orange.
If I win this now infamous iPod I'm going to scratch off the "Compliments of WestLaw Next" on the back and scrawl in "LEXIS" with a big, black, Sharpie marker.
(no, seriously, my brain is too fried to think of an amusing comment)
I love music, and I love free.
I like orange.
I would like a free Ipod Nano, mine was stolen:(
I would be very interested in the Ipod nano. Thanks for the opportunity.
I'm in. I appear to have dropped my last ipod—for your entertainment, a nano3 named Melvil—in the Pittsburgh Snowpocalypse…
Having a friend pick a number is not very random. My suggestion is http://www.random.org/. They use atmospheric noise to help pick a more random number.
An ipod would be lovely.
As a peace corps volunteer, an ipod would really change my music listening style…would be great!!
Can never have too many gadgets!
Hi Sarah, My name is Abby and I am a friend of one of your co-workers. I also happen to work at Dakota Woodlands which is the homeless shelter for families in Eagan. We would love to win this! Please enter us!
I sure hope I get that Nano. I would be so good to it, and (Holy Cow) it is Gator Orange. Could anything be better? I think not!
I would love an iPod, and I have the sneaking suspicion I have met you somewhere. In any case, here's to small worlds.
Hi Sarah, thanks for this opportunity. I'd love to win the ipod
Mmmmm, free iPod. Really enjoy the blog!
An ipod would be great!
I promise I won't call you a runt or a snitch.
Fellow midwesterner….welcome to our region!
Count me in!
I would love it for my classroom! I am a teacher and would put it to great use with my little ones! I am crossing my fingers
