NEW YORK As the government's partial shutdown enters a second day, most companies across the country are doing business as usual. Yet concern is rising that a prolonged shutdown would cause some work at private companies to dry up and consumers to lose faith in the U.S. economy.
Many of the 800,000 government workers without paychecks would no longer shop at malls, buy cars or splurge on dinner out.
"They're not getting a paycheck, they're probably going to be cutting corners immediately in all areas, and dining out will probably be one of those," said Don Davey, who owns 20 Firehouse Subs franchises in Florida and Wisconsin.
If sales drop, Davey said he'll have to reduce the hours his 250 staffers work.
"Some of our employees could be making less money as soon as next week," he said.
For each week the government remains shut, the U.S. economy would lose 0.15 percent of annualized growth, David Stockton, a former research director at the Federal Reserve who is now at the Peterson Institute, estimates.
Consultants on some government projects have stopped flying and staying at hotels. And vacationers looking to spend money at national parks are being forced to re-route their itineraries.
For some executives, there is the frustrating sense that the federal government has become a sad joke.
"Here we go again," said JetBlue Airways CEO Dave Barger. "Business customers, leisure customers – people want predictability. It's really frustrating."
With no one sure how long the standoff in Washington will last, companies large and small are gauging the effects of a shutdown that endures more than a week or two.
Steve Silberberg, who owns a company based in Hull, Mass., that runs hiking trips in national parks and forests, said a shutdown that lasts three weeks could force him to cancel a trip planned in November in the Ouachita National Forest in Arkansas. The forest is closed, and rangers can't issue a permit for Silberberg's company, Fatpacking, to run the trip for 12 hikers.
Silberberg stands to lose about $12,000 in revenue if he has to cancel. And the guides he plans to hire for the trip wouldn't be paid.
"I'm guardedly optimistic that it won't last long," Silberberg said.
The partial shutdown has put Mark Moore's government contract bids in limbo. Moore's company, Kavaliro Staffing Services, based in Orlando, Fla., is awaiting a decision on more than $500,000 in contract bids on defense-related projects.
Under the contracts, Kavaliro would place 20 to 25 information technology workers at government sites nationwide. Moore already knew it could take weeks or months to get a decision. The shutdown will extend the wait.
"It's pretty hard for the government to award contracts when they're not working," Moore said.
Defense contractors like Lockheed Martin Corp., Northrop Grumman Corp. and Raytheon Co. have no plans to shut down soon. But eventually, money would run out to build tanks, ships, planes and weapons.
"The overarching issue is how prolonged it is," said John Dern, a spokesman for Boeing Co.
Boeing's commercial side – and its airline customers – might endure more headaches from the shutdown if Federal Aviation Administration officials can't certify its newest version of the 787 Dreamliner.
In a note to clients, William Loomis, a managing director with Stifel Nicolaus and Co., warned that if the government can't pay its bills, major contractors would be hurt.
Jay McCanless, an analyst with Sterne Agee, noted that Federal Housing Administration-backed mortgages account for one-third of new-home purchases. Because of the shutdown, only 67 of 349 employees will keep approving those loans.
That could eventually hurt sales, McCanless wrote in a note to investors, for builders like Beazer Homes USA, KB Home, Lennar Corp. and D.R. Horton.
The FHA itself foresees "a decline in home sales during an extended shutdown period, reversing the trend toward a strengthening market that we've been experiencing."
Buyers wouldn't disappear. But some would linger in limbo until the government reopened and a backlog of applications cleared. A lack of homebuyers could hurt stores like Home Depot and Mooresville-based Lowe's, along with retailers that sell furniture and televisions.
Apart from federal workers, many consumers may start to worry about the economy and pull back on spending, Davey said.
"A lot of people are now just feeling like they are getting back on their feet," he said. "It seems like every time we get back to somewhat normal, we get some type of squabble in Washington that brings back to a head."
Yet others express confidence that the shutdown will cause little pain beyond the Washington area, with its hub of government workers and federal contractors.
Earlier this year, when across-the-board government spending cuts kicked in, some worried that the cuts would derail the U.S. economy, noted Jim Lentz, Toyota Motor Corp.'s CEO in North America.
"Basically, they were told that when you wake up tomorrow, the Earth is going to stop spinning," Lentz said. "For the most part, the Earth didn't stop. And I think that's how they view this again."

How to customise the Acer Aspire One GUI
We like the Acer Aspire One netbook's out-of-the-box UI. It's like Mac OS X's Dock writ large: a way of giving you easy access to key apps, but right in front of you, not tucked down at the bottom of the screen. However, you really should be presented with the apps you want, not what Acer believes you should have. Customising …
"Invisible" panels
Must there always be four icon panels and are they fixed in place by the OS?
If the answer to both is "yes". then could one take "slices" of the background graphic in an image-editing program, save the parts that would normally be hidden by the panels and use them as the panel graphics?
Inelegant, I know, but it would at least give the impression of the icons floating over the BG. (Hey... I'm not a coder; I'm just the Graphics Geek!)
Good idea - and I tried it, without success. Acer's code appears to put in a solid black titlebar and a solid grey icon panel if it's asked to place a graphic it doesn't 'know' about.
what, just like window$?
1 Solution Install Ubuntee Eee From Pen Drive
Dont bother with this config rubbish...
Ubuntu Eee will work with Acer Aspire One. Thats what I did, it installed all drivers automatically and runs like a dream. All the info you need is here:
And can be installed from pen drive easily. Once installed you can also add any software package easily at the click of a button, VLC, Skype, Azureus etc...
Good Luck.
How To?
I would like to know:
1. How to replace Firefox 2 with Firefox 3 easily without having to partially deinstall 2, install 3, partially reinstall 2.
2. How to get Thunderbird to show the number of unread emails under the icon as the crappy inbuilt email reader does. Replacing the email client with Thunderbird was a model of simplicity, but the email icon always shows 0 unread.
Great series of articles though. I learn something new with each one.

High Renaissance and Mannerism (77 Edition)by Linda Murray
Synopses & ReviewsPlease note that used books may not include additional media (study guides, CDs, DVDs, solutions manuals, etc.) as described in the publisher comments.
Publisher Comments:
After the death of Raphael in 1520, the next generation in Italy was to see the rise of the complex and refined sensibility summed up in the term "Mannerism." In this uniquely comprehensive guide to sixteenth-century Renaissance art, Linda Murray examines the manifold achievements of Italian artists and identifies the individual forms taken by artists in Northern Europe and in Spain, including Durer, Bruegel and El Greco.
The principal elements of High Renaissance art, first formulated by Leonardo da Vinci in the 1490s, came to their true flowering in the brilliant achievements of Bramante, Raphael and Michelangelo in Rome, of Michelangelo in Florence and Giorgione and Titian in Venice.

Guide to diagnosis of chlorotic and poor vigor wheat in fall
If wheat does not emerge, the problem is usually due to dry soils, a hard crust on the soil surface, or seed with poor germination. If the wheat emerges, but is chlorotic or has poor seedling vigor, several factors may be the cause. Often, a combination of factors is involved.
Chlorotic wheat
The most common causes of yellowish, chlorotic wheat in the fall are:
* Poor root growth. This may be due to soils that are too dry, soils compacted by a heavy rain, seedlings buried by soil moving into the seed furrow, or poor seedbed conditions at planting time. If the plants have been emerged for several weeks or more, can be pulled up easily, and have only a couple primary roots visible, then the root systems are not extensive enough to provide enough nutrients. This will often cause yellowing.
* Nitrogen deficiency. In the seedling stage, nitrogen deficiency causes the plants to look pale or slightly chlorotic. Nitrogen deficiency also results in reduced tillering, top growth, and root growth in the fall. The primary causes of nitrogen deficiency in the fall are poor root growth, insufficient fertilizer rates, leaching from heavy rains, and the presence of heavy amounts of crop residue, which immobilize nitrogen.
* Leaf rust or tan spot. If leaf rust infects young seedlings in the fall, the plants may turn yellowish. Fall infections of leaf rust are not common in Kansas, but can occur. Producers will be able to see pustules on the leaves. Tan spot can also cause wheat to turn yellow in the fall. Viral diseases, such as soil-borne mosaic, wheat streak mosaic, and barley yellow dwarf, can infect wheat in the fall, but yellowing symptoms do not normally show up until early spring. It rarely, if ever, pays to treat fields in the fall for leaf rust or tan spot, even if those diseases do cause yellowing. Cold temperatures in the winter normally cure this problem.
* Cold temperatures. This has not been a factor yet this year, but if recently planted wheat has not yet emerged, it may not come up until the weather is cold. When temperatures are quite cold at the time wheat emerges, it can result in yellow banding on the leaves. If this is the cause of the yellowing, symptoms should eventually fade away.
* Mites. (See items in next section.)
Other poor vigor problems
Where wheat stands are thin and lack vigor but are not yellowish and chlorotic, the most common causes are drought stress and aluminum toxicity. Other possible causes include severe phosphorus (P) deficiency, insect or mite feeding injury, root rot and seedling diseases, and herbicide carryover problems.

Review by
cxa from nj
Let me just say that I understand this is a boss subwoofer, and it isn't meant to be worth anybody's time, but I need to bring this to someone's attention. These specs are utter bull. 1200w rated power on a 2" voice coil is ridiculous. An fs of 28 hz is equally retarded, when the frequency response is listed as 28-1500. (because I really need my sub to play anything from 100-1500.......) A qe of 1.25 is beyond anything I've ever seen measured and the fact that an re of 1.8 is listed for a dual 4 subwoofer really says a lot. Stop buying this trash people, spend a few dollars and get something actually worth your time, money, and labor. Do a little research, there are great values out there, but this is not one of them. Join a forum and actually learn something, you might just be surprised out how easy it is to set up a proper subwoofer system.

Review by
Team Dynamics from New Jersey
I have never been a Boss Audio fan, but have change my mind now. I have always used well known brand, but i just have to try these woofers out.
I have an installation with 4 of these woofers now on an Digital Designs amplifier and i Works great.
I am using them in closed Box and are playing 143,7dB at pure Music with no problem at all.
Very tight and smooth bass, playing nice at 53Hz
Highly recommended for the price.
Good woofer from Boss Audio System.
I am a pro and not an amateur car stereo builder.
So stop calling Boss for trash until you actually have tryed them out with pro install.

Research Summary
We study the negative impact of stress, and mechanisms for better treatment of stress-related psychiatric disorders. Our focus is on the brain neurotransmitter norepinephrine (NE) and its role in a) acute behavioral, cognitive and endocrine responses to stress; b) adaptive and maladaptive responses to chronic stress; and c) regulatory mechanisms of action of psychotherapeutic drugs. NE is an important neuromodulatory transmitter, which plays a critical role in the acute response to stress by influencing arousal and sensorimotor response capabilities, and by integrating autonomic and endocrine responses with behavior. Using in vivo microdialysis and behavioral pharmacology, we investigate the role of NE in modulating anxiety-like behavioral and neuroendocrine responses to acute stress, and in enhancing higher-order cognitive processes in the prefrontal cortex related to arousal and attention. At a molecular and cellular level, we study regulatory changes in gene expression in brain noradrenergic neurons induced by stress, including synthetic enzymes, the NE transporter and post-synaptic adrenergic receptors using in situ hybridization. We assess changes in noradrenergic function produced by chronic stress that may contribute to stress-related pathology such as depression, PTSD or anxiety disorders. We also investigate the regulatory changes in NE function that contribute to the beneficial effects of antidepressant and anxiolytic drugs. Experimental approaches include behavioral tests of cognition, arousal, anxiety and defensive responses; intracerebral drug microinjections; in vivo microdialysis to measure neurotransmitter release in behaving rats; in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry and receptor autoradiography; radioimmunoassay for plasma hormone measures; and the application of chronic metabolic and psychogenic stressors. These studies will help us to understand the differential roles of NE and other monoaminergic neurotransmitters in a number of complex physiological contexts, including the response to acute stress, the development of chronic stress-related psychopathology such as anxiety or depression, and the mechanisms of beneficial action of psychotherapeutic agents such as antidepressants.

"I wish there was a bigger focus on being IN a relationship in the Disney cartoons, not just getting INTO one."
That's part of what made the Aladdin TV series so great. They showed the dynamic of Aladdin and Jasmine's relationship: their routines (Marketplace Day every week), anniversaries, getting gifts for her for no reason, dates, feelings of inadequacy on his end, taking each other and the relationship for granted, jealousy, fighting, trust, honesty, sacrifice, supporting each other (particularly Jasmine supporting Aladdin's search for his father in King of Thieves), etc. The fact they had SO much development through the 90+ episodes of the TV series is one of the reasons that Aladdin and Jasmine are one of my Disney OTP's.
See, I didn't take the little dance moment from DH as a "Harmione" moment. I understood it to be a moment when Harry saw one of his best friends in pain and tried to cheer her up and let her know he was there for her. And after all, he didn't try to be romantic — he was goofy.
Maybe I understood it that way because one of my best friends is a guy — and even though we are completely platonic and have love interests of our own, I can picture him doing the exact same kind of thing to cheer me up when I'm sad or heartbroken (in fact, I'm pretty sure he has at some point).
I just hate this idea that a man and woman can't be close to each other without one (or both) of them having feelings for the other.

Some of us were discussing the marvelous wonder that was my birthday cake…
…and then I turned to my ex and asked, "So, have you read the 7th book yet?" (He hadn't yet when we broke up over a year ago.)
He responded without a hint of remorse: "Nope."
I sighed, put my hand on his shoulder, and looked him in the eyes. "It would have never worked between us, darling."
…then we ate the delicious, delicious cake.
(Hey, every relationship needs standards. Harry Potter fanaticism is one of them.)
Because seriously, my reaction to seeing my ex this morning was entirely unacceptable.
I was walking to work (tutoring at a uni) and decided to cut through a random classroom building to escape the freezing, pouring rain. On the way I passed a group of young men. They caught my attention because the one in front looked like a teen I knew from summer volunteering, and I thought, "I know he isn't that tall." I had just barely confirmed that, indeed, it was not the boy I'd been thinking of, when I noticed the one behind him. Honestly, my brain only registered the curly brown hair and the trademark smirk. I didn't have time to take in any more detail because what did I do next?
I fucking turned my face the other way and prayed he wouldn't recognize me.
The second we'd passed each other I gave myself whiplash turning around to try to see if it was actually him. He was taller…but then again, I haven't seen him for almost three years, and my friends tell me he's grown. I don't know why he was there, with that group, at my uni — but perhaps he was looking to transfer. They were in the maths, science, and engineering building, definitely interests of his.
As I left the building and got back out into the rain, I told myself that it probably wasn't him. After all, I didn't even get a good look at him. But whether it was or wasn't, my reaction still bothered me. Why the hell did I have to hide? Why was I so terrified of him recognizing me? After all, he was the one who did something wrong. He's the one who became a self-absorbed, lying, cheating, using PRAT. And besides, it was THREE YEARS AGO.
He still has power over me, and I hate it. I'm afraid of the influence he still could have — the way he pulls people in with his charm and charisma, like a moth to flame. I've always imagined that at our next encounter, I'd be at the top of my game. Successful, looking great, and prepared against his magnetism so that I could exude a vibe that said, "Look at how well I'm doing…without you." I want him to regret how much he screwed up…but the thing is, I don't think he even realises that he did anything that wrong.
My point is, I wouldn't even be thinking about any of this if I didn't still care about what he thought. It's been three years, and he's still messing up my current relationships and messing with my head. I'm sick of it. He shouldn't be my motivation or means for measuring success.
I need to take a lesson from Sarah: Jarome Smith, you have no power over me.

Coach Mike Leach announced the move Monday after one of his linebackers noted the coach's tardiness to a Sunday meeting, a day after the Red Raiders lost 29-28 to No. 12 Houston.
According to the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal, linebacker Marlon Williams asked on his Twitter account why he was still in a meeting room when "the head coach can't even be on time." That tweet has been deleted.
Offensive lineman Brandon Carter also had a Twitter page. After the loss to the Cougars, he tweeted: "This is not how I saw our season."
On Sunday, Carter was suspended indefinitely for violating team rules and his Twitter page was nowhere to be found.
The Red Raiders (2-2) host New Mexico (0-4) on Saturday.

Rainforest Free Pulp Resources
Corruption, Land Conflict, and Forest Destruction: APP Case Study from Sumatra
Asia Pulp and Paper (APP), Indonesia and China's biggest pulp and paper company, is rapidly clear cutting and draining huge areas of Indonesia's diverse rainforests and peatlands. The logging giant then converts the degraded land into monoculture acacia pulp wood plantations to make cheap paper products. This deforestation is devastating communities and their livelihoods and driving species like the Sumatran tiger toward extinction. Despite government issued permits, serious legal uncertainties remain concerning APP's business.
Don't Bag Indonesia's Rainforests
In November 2009 the prestigious conglomerate of fashion and luxury brands Gucci Group decided to eliminate all paper made from Indonesian rainforests and plantations and from controversial suppliers like Asia Pulp and Paper (APP). The move was a first step in implementing an industry-leading paper policy and a continuation of the Gucci Group's interest in stemming climate change, over fifteen percent of which comes from forest loss.

Flagler statue gets no respect
- 11:10 am Wednesday, April 30th, 2014 by David Willson
Rejected in 2000 and installed in 2010, it's now back in storage
Henry Morrison Flagler put our area on the map when he brought the railroad. Then he built a grand resort hotel that was reputedly the largest wooden structure in the world. And then he built the grandest home on the island, which became the elegant epicenter of high society. If you got an invitation to Whitehall, you had made the grade.
That's just for starters. To say the dude was important to Florida is an understatement. And yet, a donated statue of Mr. Flagler was, for the longest time, persona [More]
Palm Beach used to be more of a town
- 10:25 am Wednesday, April 16th, 2014 by David Willson
Here's a multiple-choice question for everyone who lives on the island: How do you perceive Palm Beach?
A) As a town.
B) As an exclusive residential community.
I've recently wondered what the results would be if an island-wide poll were taken with this question. My guess would be that "exclusive residential community" would win hands down.
You might ask why a place can't be both, but there are some fairly clear distinctions.
Towns have public spaces (preferably plenty of them) and commercial districts, which they generally make an effort to keep busy and thriving. Towns also typically try to have a good [More]

But this time, property rights-loving North End turns on businesses
While driving across the Flagler Memorial Bridge last week, I spied a large red, white and blue "Vote No, Pud 5″ sign attached to the back of a car. There was another as I turned north onto North Lake Way. As I got closer to the inlet, I was surrounded by a patriotic array of "No" signs in front of driveways, gates and on lawns.
There's no question that the North End is a hotbed for opposition to the planned unit development model recently approved by the Town Council for Royal Poinciana Way. Just read the [More]
Once again, bigger becoming better
- 6:00 am Wednesday, March 5th, 2014 by David Willson
One way to preserve Palm Beach's charm is through its architecture. The Town Council is considering increasing its budget to earmark more historical architecture on its landmarks list, but it still tries to be mindful of property owner's desires.
Still, one of the cartoons from my Palm Beach Daily News archives demonstrates that, sometimes, landmark status is even insufficient to save a historic home from the wrecking ball.
Palm Beachers were shocked to see that Four Winds, a landmarked 1937 estate designed by Maurice Fatio for E.F. Hutton, was demolished on July 12, 2004. Previously, the Landmarks Preservation Commission had issued a [More]
Historically, development not a bad thing
- 6:00 am Wednesday, November 6th, 2013 by David Willson
Change, at times, frightens the bejesus out of some Palm Beachers. It doesn't seem to matter what kind of change is being proposed — a bigger grocery store, a new restaurant — the anxiety level of this group of residents shoots sky-high.
And when the anxiety level goes up, so does the hyperbole. In the case of the PUD-5 proposal, we're hearing redevelopment domino theories, comparisons to massive CityPlace and the ultimate scare, more condos. And the Testa family has been characterized, contradictorily, both as ineffectual business people and greedy developers.
As someone who descends from Palm Beach pioneers, I'm perplexed by this [More]
Residents don't know what they're missing
- 3:51 pm Wednesday, October 16th, 2013 by David Willson
Palm Beach has always been renowned for its natural beauty. Travelers were calling it paradise long before Henry Flagler arrived, and that holds true today.
So it's no wonder that Palm Beach often makes top 10 destination lists like the one that appeared in my March 2002 cartoon. Of course, the irony is that some Palm Beachers would prefer the town didn't appear on any list that might attract more visitors.

NFC South preview wraps up with a look at the New Orleans Saints.
The Saints rebounded once they added Sean Payton back into the fold full-time after his suspension the previous year. New Orleans finished at 11-5 for the season, not quite enough to win the division, but it was sufficient for their fourth playoff berth in five years.
Offensively they are a marvel as always. No surprise there, considering no Sean Payton coached Saints team has finished worse than 12th in points per game. Last year they were 10th in that category. While the passing attack led by Drew Brees was as prolific as ever (2nd in yards and points in the passing game in the league), the running game left something to be desired. The Saints were 25th and 23rd, respectively, in rushing yards and touchdowns in the 2013-14 season. In order to get back to their winning ways they will need balance; keep in mind, during the 2009-2010 Super Bowl run the team was top 10 in every major passing AND rushing statistic.
There is some promise in the backfield, as Mark Ingram finally got the reps he needed to really get going. Ingram finished last season with a 4.9 yard per carry average, a full yard higher than he's ever put up previously in his career. While he will once again share carries with Pierre Thomas, his strong performance will certainly lead to more attempts than he claimed last year.
Of course, running the football has as much to do with who is receiving the ball, as who is blocking for the ball-carrier. The offensive line was terribly inconsistent, and allowed Brees to get sacked a career-high 37 times last year. The line began to improve toward the end of the season, in large part due to rookie Terron Armstead's maturation at the Left Tackle position. By the end of the season, he and Ben Grubbs began to solidify the offense's weakest unit–leading to Grubbs second Pro Bowl selection. The other guard, Jahri Evans also received a Pro Bowl selection, though he missed the last four games of the season. If the team can stay healthy and continue to gel after a year of turnover, perhaps the line will protect its powerful backfield weapons more effectively.
Rob Ryan is truly a magician. A year after the Saints gave up the most yards in the history of the NFL, Ryan went full-on mad scientist and changed the system and culture of the Saints. Last year, New Orleans was fourth in points per game– a year after being ranked 31st. That's insane. Going from an all-time terrible defense to arguably the best in the NFC South is nothing short of magic. There is really no reason that Ryan doesn't have a head coaching job after the near miracle he performed in the Bayou last year.
Despite their high-level performance, the Saints spent four of their first five draft picks on defense. An understandable tactic given their recent draft history with selecting impact defensive players—Kenny Vaccaro and Cameron Jordan were taken in the 2013 and 2011 drafts, respectively. Giving Ryan more toys to play with seems to make the most sense given how unwavering the offense has been. With such a powerful unit, the defense need only be mediocre for the team to continue its success—another top 5 year and the team will validate my prediction.
Moving Forward:
This is the best team in the NFC South. A stout defense will be buoyed by Vaccaro's return from injury and the signing of Jairus Byrd to secure the secondary. Moreover, another year of Ryan can't hurt a team.
While Darren Sproles will be missed in the passing game, Brandin Cooks will be a dynamic slot receiver to keep Brees' armory full. Plus, Sproles absence will mean less of a log jam at the running back position, allowing Ingram and Thomas (both backs who thrive on multiple carries) a chance to see the ball more. The Saints will win the division and have a serious shot to add another Super Bowl win to their growing history.

Poem: Original Instagram
Reflections in a mud puddle
It is an early summer morning. It rained the night before as I walk a mile or so before I climb into the car for the morning's mega commute. The parking lot near my home is dappled with puddles slowly evaporating. It reminds me of when I first started taking black and white photographs in high school. One of my favorite subjects was reflections of the sky in puddles.
I don't remember what initially attracted me to the subject matter, but I remember loading a 35mm SLR manual camera–either an Olympus or a Pentex–with a spool of film, pulling the leader and lining the sprocket holes with the sprockets, securing the leader to the spindle, closing the back door and advancing the film a couple frames. I'd sling the camera over my shoulder and head outdoors to capture a surreal glimpse of the heavens from the perspective of puddles on asphalt. Or pools of water on gravel roads or a grassy field.
After collecting images captured and hidden on a roll of exposed black and white film, I returned to the darkroom at the high school and processed the film. First developing the amber film strips and then placing it in the enlarger to make prints. The way the image emerged from the paper as it floated in the developer solution was no end of amazement for me–like watching an unseen ghost suddenly materialize. The image of a lamp post in a puddle near the grainery, the water tower with clouds dancing from the pavement, the side of the building of the Coal Miner's bar on Main Street or a self-portrait reflecting in a pool of water in an alley.
Something about a reflection seen from a different perspective captivated me. How can I look at a subject differently? How can I view it from a different angle–another perspective? I guess that's how I approach a lot of things today–asking myself, What's the wider context? Some days I just need to take a long walk on an early summer morning and look for those puddles, search for a different angle of the sky, watch the fog on the mountain tops from a mud puddle. Maybe a distorted, impressionistic reflection will inform me of something I didn't see before.
50 poems in 30 days
More than 50 poems were sent to publishers in January. Encouraged by another poet who submits somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 poems a month, I thought it would be a good discipline as well. It's exhausting as well.
A few years ago, I was encourage not to post my poems on this blog (or Facebook), because a lot of small press publishers consider those poems "published." So, I've been writing offline and sharing the new poems at private salons, a poetry festival and with friends. But I have not pursued publication until this year.
Talking with Al Maginnes after his recent reading at Malaprop's, he told me how is first poetry submission was accepted immediately. Encouraged by this, he submitted more poetry to publishers. He said it was years before anything else was published.
So far, two publishers replied with rejection notices. That's alright. I will submit those poems to other publishers.

It's gonna be a lot of fun.

Tim and I are gonna ask you a question.

If you get it right, you're going to come forward and choose a pair of shoes. Alexandria, because you won the last challenge, you don't have to participate in the quiz at all and you get to choose your pair of shoes first.

I am torn between a pair of shoes.

Tick tock, tick tock.

Okay. I'll do that one. I'd take a heart pair of shoes. They're cool. They're very now and I think that other people wanted the shoes. I won.

First question. Christian Louboutin's famous red shoes sole was inspired by one of his employee's what?

Fingernail polish.

You got it.

It shocked me and made me feel good and it was quite an embarrassing scene with all of these educated fashion designers not know their fashion history.

Who introduced the full skirted silhouette dubbed the new look?

Christian Dior.

You were correct.

Thank you.

Which design school did Marc Jacobs attend?

Parsons.

Yes. Correct.

All right.

This technology might not be fully appreciated by readers located in earthquake-free locales, but if you've ever felt the ground move beneath your feet you'll be pleased with this technology. At Tokyo Big Sight last week Japanese company THK was demonstrating how their linear motion systems could dampen the shock of an earthquake. One of their systems, when placed underneath an object that you'd like to protect, will absorb most of the shock of an earthquake. Read More
Floating barriers reduce wave erosion on levees
With all the publicity the Gulf Oil Spill is currently receiving, it's easy to forget about another disaster from which the city of New Orleans is still recovering - the flood caused by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. That flood, of course, occurred because the levee along the city's coastline couldn't stand up to the assault of the storm-driven waves. Daniel Wren, a hydraulic engineer who works for the USDA Agriculture Research Service in Oxford, Mississippi, is now working on a system that might have kept that from happening. He has developed floating barriers that can dissipate up to 75 percent of a wave's energy, before that wave reaches the levee. Read More
Imagine waking up on a cold winter's morning to light streaming in through your bedroom window and the smell of fresh coffee. The concrete floor is warm and your favorite music starts to play as you eat your breakfast. As you drive away the house automatically locks, the thermostat reduces and the insulation panels close as the house goes into hibernation until you return. Welcome to LUMENHAUS, the completely solar powered, open plan house that uses computer technology, flexible architectural design and energy efficiency to adapt to its owner's changing needs as well as environmental conditions... and it recently won the 2010 Solar Decathlon Europe.

Windows that change their tint are not new, but this window by RavenBrick does so without any energy use required. The RavenWindow changes its transparency depending on the temperature, so basically if it's hot outside less heat passes through it and if it's cold outside then it becomes more transparent, allowing in more heat from the sun. The implications are obvious – savings on your energy bill as a result of reduced use of your heater or air conditioner. With "America's Greenest Building" commissioning the first commercial installation of the product, it's bound to have a bright future. Read More
There would be few scarier places to be in the event of a fire than in a high-rise building with no means of escape. Tragedies such as the World Trade Center disaster have highlighted the vulnerability of the building's core and emergency stairwell as the only venue for evacuation. We've seen some last resort options that cater for those individuals brave enough to rappel or even parachute from the building, but that's still only part of the equation. When escape routes are compromised it not only prevents evacuation, but also prevents emergency personnel reaching the trouble spots. Escape Rescue Systems' solution is to use collapsible cabins which can be lowered over the side of the building to transport rescue personnel up... and evacuate building occupants down. Read More
James McHugh Construction has officially completed construction on Aqua, the Chicago high-rise that was named 2009 Skyscraper of the Year by international building database Emporis.

It turns out, however, that there's more to the 82-story tower than just good looks. Read More
Self-healing "smart building materials" have the potential to reduce structure repair costs, lower cement-production carbon emissions and even save lives.

Sea shells inspire better building materials
Seashells have done an exemplary job of protecting their inhabitants for around a hundred million years, so perhaps it isn't surprising that scientists and chemists have now replicated their unique structure in a manmade material.

Their achievement could lead to stronger building and bone replacement materials, or other practical applications. Read More

Indiana senior guard Maurice Creek will graduate next week and look to transfer elsewhere for his final season of eligibility, the university announced today.
After a career riddled with injuries and a junior season without many minutes, Creek has an opportunity to transfer as a fifth-year player and play immediately at another program, per NCAA eligibility rules for players who have graduated with remaining eligibility. Multiple reports by 247Sports.com and Rivals.com suggest Creek will look to transfer closer to his native Maryland.
"With his graduation coming up next week, Maurice and his family have decided to pursue an opportunity where he can find the type of role that would provide him the minutes he desires and is accustomed to," IU coach Tom Crean said in a statement. "In all my time as a coach, I have never witnessed someone overcoming the adversity that Maurice had sustained during his time. His attitude, ability to continue to work and his passion for the game of basketball have never wavered.
"He has been an integral part of our basketball family and will always remain that in our eyes and and should also in the eyes of Hoosier Nation."
In the midst of a promising freshman season that put him in the top five of scoring among rookie college players, Creek broke his leg in a blowout win against Bryant University just before conference play began. He attempted a comeback the following year, only to endure an Achilles tear and face yet another medical setback.
Creek averaged 7.8 minutes and 1.8 points in his final season as a Hoosier, while becoming a fan favorite for his determination to come back to play. The efforts never came to fruition because of a stacked roster and the difficulties of getting back to the athletic player loaded with potential that flashed brilliance in his first year, including a 30-point game against Kentucky.
His 16.4 points per game as a freshman carried his average for his career, which ends at 7.2 points per game. Creek played in 54 games for the Hoosiers and made 25 starts over three seasons.

Evaluating the Use of an Assistive Listening Device for Communication Efficiency Using the Diapix Task: A Pilot StudyMcInerney M. · Walden P.
aDepartment of Communication Sciences and Disorders, Queens Campus, Long Island Audiology Consortium, and bDepartment of Communication Sciences and Disorders, Staten Island Campus, St. John's University, Jamaica, N.Y., USA
Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the effects of assistive listening device (ALD) use on communication efficiency in groups of elderly adults with and without hearing impairment during a structured language sampling task. The relationship between self-perceived hearing handicap and communication efficiency was also explored. Method: Twenty-two subjects completed measures of hearing sensitivity, perceived hearing handicap, cognition, and a language sample. One half of the hearing-impaired participants and one half of the normal-hearing group were randomly assigned to use an ALD during a structured conversation task with a naïve partner. Results: The Hearing Loss/No ALD group had significantly more breakdowns than the Hearing Loss/With ALD group. Further, the Hearing Loss/With ALD group performed statistically similar to the two groups without hearing loss. For the normal-hearing groups as well as the Hearing Loss/No ALD group, self-perceived hearing handicap was significantly correlated with the number of communication breakdowns. Conclusion: The results lent preliminary support for the use of ALDs in the management of hearing loss. A case for functional assessment of communication was made to better illuminate causes of perceived communication handicap in the aural rehabilitation of elderly persons with hearing impairment.
