We're pleased to announce the recent release of 3 new articles to the Ensemble Hub. This section of our site provides information and insight for any ensemble wanting to develop and improve their music making.
David's recent article is a must-read for any vocalist, with helpful hints and tips for pronunciation when singing in English, which isn't as simple as it sounds! Our latest featured ensemble is Le Poème Harmonique, a French group performing vocal and instrumental music of the seventeenth and early eighteenth century, who wowed Chris B with their faultless intonation and clarity of sound. Most recently, Artistic Director of Gabrieli Consort & Players and Principal Conductor and Artistic Advisor of the Gulbenkian Orchestra, Lisbon, Paul McCreesh answers our choral questions and also reveals a secret love of Twiglets! Copies of all articles in the Ensemble Hub can be found here.
Finally, we would like to say thank you again for the fabulous response to our Google Hangout earlier this month on Creating a group sound. We are happy to say that the next Hangout has been scheduled for Tuesday 10 February 2015, KS time: 11:00 CST / 17:00 GMT, the link to which will be posted on the Ensemble Hub 5 minutes before the scheduled start time. David and Chris B will be discussing Programming a Concert, and as before you will be able to post your questions on our Facebook page. We can't wait to hear from you!

|We are presenting a method and a working system that automatically builds up a large multilingual dictionary of person and organisation names through daily news analysis and that makes use of this name dictionary - together with a gazetteer of location names and other means - to link related news articles across languages for 19 languages. Prominent features of the system are the simplicity of the approach (required to extend the functionality to so many languages), the fact that monolingual and cross-lingual name variants are automatically merged with the name's base form, and the fact that the system aggregates information about persons independently of the spelling of their name. The system, accessible online at http://press.jrc.it/NewsExplorer/, has currently collected over 630,000 different names with up to 140 variants for the same name from real life news, plus their inflections. We will put this work into the wider context of other text-related activities carried out at the European Commission¿s Joint Research Centre (JRC).

By Boria Majumdar , Bangalore, 2014/01/08 01:25:33The bottom line - cricket will be at its absolute best and the intensity at its highest. This is what one wants to watch. A real fight between bat and ball with some juicy verbal banter to spruce it up. Adelaide - let's bring it on.
England in Australia, 2013/14(Full Coverage)
By Garfield Robinson , Bangalore, 2013/11/26 12:07:00Mitchell Johnson's assault during the first Test of the second installment of the 2013 Ashes, recalled those heady pre-helmet days of the mid 1970s when batsmen ventured to the middle at their own risk. High pace still provides an examination of courage, and the short, rising delivery can still test the best of batting techniques.
Sachin Tendulkar Test retirement(Full Coverage)
By Boria Majumdar , Bangalore, 2013/11/28 06:07:41In an emotional coloumn, Boria Majumdar pays the ultimate tribute to Sachin Tendulkar after the master announced his retirement from cricket.
By Ganesh Chandrasekaran , Shimoga, 2013/10/05 13:50:00There was not much cricket to look forward to from a cricketing point of view on Day 4 between India A and West Indies A. A draw seemed the most likely result. However, the last day at Shimoga grew interesting with an opportunity to talk to and spend some time with the coaching staff of the West Indies 'A' team
By Siddharth Vishwanathan , Bangalore, 2013/10/05 12:55:45This is the first time in the history of the CLT20 tournament where three IPL teams have reached the semi-finals.
By Ganesh Chandrasekaran , Shimoga, 2013/10/06 01:36:53With his batting spot secure, is captaincy the next big challenge for Cheteshwar Pujara?
By Ananthasubramanian Narayanan , Mysore, 2013/10/01 14:29:50Last week, the West Indies A team which took on India A at Mysore went with a staggeringly similar approach to that of England when they visited India. No wonder their tactic worked and it showed with the eventual result - Win by 162 runs.
By MS Ramakrishnan , Bangalore, 2013/09/22 13:06:24Here is a look at the five teams that make up Group B in the 2013 edition of the World Cricket League.
By Siddharth Vishwanathan , Bangalore, 2013/09/21 11:38:28With top sides like Mumbai, Rajasthan, Perth, Lions and Otago, a lot of action and entertainment can be expected from the Group A matches.
By Pradeep , Bangalore, 2013/09/17 09:12:06The Champions League kicks of with four teams battling to earn the rights to enter the next phase of the tournament.
By Boria Majumdar , Kolkata, 2013/09/19 04:34:16In a country, which lacks the sensitivity towards true memorabilia, the auction organized by Osians Auction House was a big success.
By Boria Majumdar , Kolkata, 2013/08/24 05:32:00It was just before the start of IPL season 5 that my friend Deep Dasgupta asked me to keep an eye on Bhuvneshwar Kumar. "He can swing the ball both ways and has a great attitude", Deep had said. I have known Deep to be rational and pragmatic and hence thought it prudent to check out Kumar in a few of the games.
By Krish Sripada , Bangalore, 2013/08/15 08:31:00In cricket, if the conditions don't get you, the unpredictability will. The India-A team would have had a taste of the vagaries of the game during the tri-series which also involved A teams from RSA and Australia.

forgot to mention:
5. they got one of the lowest p/e compare to other stocks only 9x, apple and gilead are at 18x and bestbuy at 13x, blackstone at 12x, coach and macys at 15x.
p/e means price to earning ratio, basically you divide the stock price with the eps of the year, the lower the better.
Sentiment: Buy
Very nice advice, I hope you are doing that, cuz I'll be on the other side collecting your margin calls.
LOL, not gonna happen:
1. high insider and institution holding
2. a profitable company with position eps
3. no debt
4. short interest is not high, only about 11%
The stock will rally when the shorts lock in their profits and cover.
Recommendation: Hold (if you have it)/Buy (if you don't have it)
What a troll, AMD GPU is worthless? Tell that to the millions of people who are buying PS4 and Xbox1 and the people grabbing AMD Radeon GPU for their desktops and APU laptops that bundles with free PC games, idiot.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Based on the Royalty Intel pays to Nvidia every quarter, Samsung and Qualcomm's number would be alot more, which means those GPU Royalty revenue ALONE from Qualcomm and Samsung for AMD would be more than enough to pay for AMD's debt interest + the actual principle of the debt, so all the other revenue from AMD are just extras.
Intel is paying 56mil per quarter to nvidia for GPU patent licensing, Samsung and Qualcomm will be paying alot more than that because of the amount of cellphone being sold with programmable shader GPU. AMD's ATI is equivalent to Nvidia which means whatever Nvidia collects from Qualcomm and Samsung for Royalty, AMD will get similar deals and Royalty revenue has the highest margin because you are collecting extra money without much effort and it's steady and stable revenue like the console win.

Supreme Court rules on same-sex marriage
Published On: Jun 25 2013 01:56:20 PM CDT
Updated On: Jun 26 2013 10:47:35 AM CDT
Updated On: Jun 26 2013 10:47:35 AM CDT
In two rulings, the Supreme Court gave major victories to same-sex couples. In the first, regarding the Defense of Marriage Act, it overturned a ban on federal benefits for same-sex married couples. In the second, on Proposition 8, a California case, the court dismissed an appeal. This means same-sex couples will be able to get married in that state.

Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals free agency wish list
While the majority of the Cardinals offseason news has revolved around the quarterback vacancy, there are a few other holes which still need to be addressed.
Although quarterback is an important position, teams that go 5-11 usually have more than one hole and the Cardinals are no different.
Arizona could use help on the offensive line as well as at the linebacker position and there are a few names that will be available in free agency once the lockout ends.
Matt Light: Although Light has spent the last nine season with the Patriots, there is a chance he will need to find a new home in 2011. The Patriots like Light and want to resign him, but they may not want to get into a bidding war. If the Cardinals can make a competitive offer, the Patriots may cave.
Kyle Kosier: Kosier has spent the last five season in Dallas and has been a very consistent member of their offensive line. The Cowboys will certainly try to resign Kosier, but Arizona should make a play for the lineman as well because a consistent starting lineman would be a huge boost for the Arizona offense.
Ephraim Salaam: Salaam has had an up-and-down career. He has started 129 of the 159 games he has played in and while he may not be the biggest or best name available, he may be someone that cheaply slides under the radar.
Takeo Spikes: A nine-year NFL veteran, Takeo Spikes started all 16 games last season and accounted for 82 solo tackles. While the 49ers would like to re-sign Spikes, he has not participated in team workouts this offseason because his future with the team is unclear. While he has not said anything publicly, Spikes unwillingness to workout could suggest a desired change of scenery.
Kirk Morrison: Having started 16 games for five straight seasons, Morrison is as consistent as they come. The former San Diego State Aztec recorded 64 solo tackles last season.

How to Make a No-Sew Christmas Topiary
Make this easy, no-sew Christmas topiary using only pins and fabric squares.
By: Farima Alavi
Materials Needed:
- 1-2 yards HGTV HOME or other desired fabric
- medium Styrofoam sphere
- straight pins
- wooden dowel
- Spanish moss
- terra cotta pot
- floral foam piece
- paint (optional)
Paint Foam Sphere, Pot and Wooden Dowel
Paint the wooden dowel and terra cotta pot if desired. Paint the Styrofoam sphere a dark color so it better blends with your chosen fabric. Let dry.
Cut and Fold Fabric Squares
Cut fabric into 2-inch square pieces (image 1). Depending on your fabric, you may need to apply no-fray spray before cutting. Fold each square piece in half (image 2), and in half again to create a flower petal effect (image 3).
Attach Fabric to Sphere
Stick the pin through the bottom point of the fabric petal in each folded fabric square, and pin to sphere. Pin the squares on the sphere, slightly overlapping each piece until the entire sphere is covered (images 1 and 2). Fluff fabric to get your desired look.
Assemble Topiary
Glue floral foam to the inside of the pot. Stick wooden dowel in the sphere and stick the other end of the dowel into the floral foam.
Add Finishing Touches
Place Spanish moss or other greenery in the pot to cover the floral foam. Display on your mantel or table (images 1 and 2).

Rupee down despite share gains
Reuters Market Eye - The rupee trading close to 55 levels despite gains in the domestic sharemarket. The rupee is trading at 54.99/55.00 versus its close of 54.88/89.
The rupee fell to as low as 55.07 in opening trade, its lowest since March 4.
Domestic shares trading up 0.8 percent tracking firm Asian indices.
Traders say good dollar buying is likely at 54.95 levels while 55.15 is expected to cap the upside.
"If 55.15 is broken convincingly, we could see it move upto 55.40-50 levels but until then it is safe to play the 54.50 to 55.15 range," said a senior dealer with a foreign bank.

Balancing act: Daughter looks forward to lessons of first 'real' job
ShotShare, Getty Images/iStockphoto
My first job as a boy was delivering newspapers in my hometown of Yankton, South Dakota.
But even though that paper route taught me the importance of hard work and the value of money, I don't consider it my first "real" job.
That title belongs to my gig as a part-time custodian for the pharmacy/retail store at which my father worked. And when I say part time, I mean three hours a week.
In those three hours each Saturday, I would vacuum all the carpet in the store (including the dreaded stairs), clean the employee break room, empty garbage cans and clean the restrooms. That was by far my least favorite task, as the restrooms were open to the public, and they could be quite nasty at times.
Still, the job wasn't too difficult, and it was definitely educational. For example, I learned the importance of being on time (because I wanted to finish work and get on with my Saturday), of managing my money (because I didn't make much, and a trip to the video game arcade was expensive) and dealing with customers. I wasn't actually helping customers, mind you, but I did have to get out of their way while I was cleaning, so that should count.
I was reflecting on this experience the other day as I talked to my oldest daughter, who just landed her first "real" job working at a sandwich shop near our home.
At age 16, she's already wiser than I was as a teen. So I thought I would ask her a few questions about her job hunt and her expectations as she enters the world of work.
Like me as a youngster, my daughter already has some work experience. She has been a popular baby sitter in the neighborhood for years, and she's spent the past couple of years working as an assistant to our other children's piano teacher.
From those experiences, she said she has learned how to work with people who are older than she, and she's learned the importance of reliability.
"(For example), whenever I babysit, I like to try to leave the place cleaner than it was when the parents left," she said. "It's about giving your customer a good experience, because that keeps them coming back, which is good for business."
She said she also learned that some jobs don't always require "nose-to-the-grindstone working away."
"Sometimes for piano, all of the kids would be rehearsing, so I'd just organize some books," she said. "And when you're baby-sitting, the kids fall asleep. ... It is hard work, but there are lags, and you need to learn how to work with those."
This probably sounds familiar to the average resident of Cubeville. I know it did to me. (See, I told you she was wise.)
With those learning experiences behind her, my daughter started applying for jobs several weeks ago at shops and restaurants near our home. Her big break came at the sandwich shop, where her 17- and 18-year-old cousins already work.
The manager was interested in her based in part on her application and glowing references, but also on the good work those cousins have done. (In other words, she's already learning that getting a job can be easier when you know the right people.)
She stopped in for her official job interview last week, and she said it was a bit more informal than she had expected.
"(The manager) kind of told me about the business, and I think that was trying to gauge how I would react," my daughter said. "They do a lot of donations and such, and she emphasized hard work and company values. It was pretty much like a conversation."
She had received some preparation for job interviews through a class in high school, she said, but the only thing she was asked that she actually expected was a question about her strengths and weaknesses.

Egypts Antiquities Chief Quits Cabinet, Warns of Looting
2011 03 04
By Hamza Hendawi |
Egypts top archaeologist, Zahi Hawass, warned that the countrys antiquity sites were being looted by criminals amid the countrys political upheaval as he announced he would no longer serve in his ministerial post in the government.
Hawass was quoted in the Friday editions of Cairos dailies as saying he would not participate in the new government to be led by prime minister designate Essam Sharaf. Hawass, the longtime head of Egypts antiquities office, was elevated to Cabinet-level antiquities minister on Jan. 31, when ousted President Hosni Mubarak named a new government led by longtime friend Ahmed Shafiq.
Zahi Hawass, Secretary General of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities, has issued a statement warning that looting has increased since President Hosni Mubarak was ousted and his countrys archaeological treasures are "in grave danger."

Shafiq resigned Thursday amid calls by protesters for his removal, and Sharaf has been tasked with naming a new government.
Hawass said he was no longer able to protect the countrys antiquities because of what he called the absence of police protection and because he was the victim of a campaign against him by senior officials at his ministry.
Egypts antiquities, he warned, were in "grave danger" from criminals. He called on the youth groups behind the 18-day uprising that forced Mubarak to step down Feb. 11 to help protect antiquity sites.
"Since Mubaraks resignation, looting has increased all over the country, and our antiquities are in grave danger from criminals trying to take advantage of the current situation," he wrote on his website.
Repeated attempts by The Associated Press to reach Hawass have failed.
On his website, Hawass listed some two dozen archaeology sites that have been raided by thieves since Mubaraks ouster. The sites include the warehouse used by archaeologist from New Yorks Metropolitan Museum of Art at Dahshour, a pyramids site on the outskirts of Cairo. Hawass also said illegal construction has taken place on antiquity sites.
The list includes ancient Egyptian tombs, Islamic sites and warehouses and are spread across much of the country from the outskirts of Cairo, the Sinai Peninsula and the southernmost city of Aswan.
The looting is part of a crime wave that has gripped Egypt since Jan. 28, when the police mysteriously disappeared from most of the country following deadly clashes with the anti-government protesters. The army was called out to restore order, but it has been unable to fully take on a policing role.
The police have yet to fully retake the streets, leaving a security vacuum in which criminals, including several thousand inmates who escaped prisons, are operating with impunity in parts of the country. The police force is widely hated for years of abuse against Egyptians and because of its brutal crackdown on protesters. Only about 50 percent of the police force is thought to have returned to work and there are reports that hundreds of officers want to quit.
Archaeology sites have chronically been a soft target for thieves because of their isolated location and the relative ease with which lowly paid guards can be bribed to look the other way.
"The situation looks very difficult today and we are trying our best to ensure the police and army restore full protection to the cultural heritage of the country," Hawass said on his website.
Hawass has for more than decade been the international face of Egypts archaeology, with his trademark "Indiana Jones" hat turning him into an instantly recognizable global icon. Hawass, however, has been the target of a recent series of heavily publicized protests by archaeology graduates who accused him of corruption and seeking publicity for himself.
He has been accused of being too close to Mubarak and his family, along with former culture minister Farouq Hosni, himself a protege of the Mubaraks who had served in the Cabinet for 25 years until he was left out from the Shafiqs government.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art joined Hawass in voicing concern over the looting.
"The Met and the entire museum community worldwide are increasingly concerned about what appear to be ongoing, grievous security breaches at Egypts historic sites and archaeological digs," the museums director, Thomas P. Campbell, said in a statement Thursday.
"The world cannot sit by and permit unchecked anarchy to jeopardize the cultural heritage of one of the worlds oldest, greatest, and most inspiring civilizations. We echo the voices of all concerned citizens of the globe in imploring Egypts new government authorities ... to protect its precious past. Action needs to be taken immediately."

Why Chinese Growth Forecasts Just Crashed To A Paltry 3.9% - And Are Going Even Lower - In One ChartSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 10/20/2014 11:11 -0500
Sadly for China's social instability, Chinese growth is going not only to 3.9% but much, much lower. The reason? Quietly, over the past 5 years, China raked up an epic debt load, which by 2015 is expected to hit a whopping 252% of GDP, or a 100% of GDP increase in debt, just to keep its growth dynamo running. A dynamo which has now fizzled, as can be seen best in the Chinese housing bubble which as we have reported previously, has now burst, and China is desperate to keep imminent hard landing, as controlled as possible.

"I see deflation flirting with America." Retail sales equals consumer spending equals velocity of money. And unless the money supply is rising, hardly likely in the taper, less spending is deflation by definition. Forget about PMI and all that kind of data, it's much simpler than that. Central banks can do all kinds of stuff, but they can't make us spend our money on things we don't want or need. Let alone make us borrow to do so. And if we don't, deflation is an inevitable fact. That doesn't mean prices for some items won't go up, but that's not what counts. It's about how fast we either spend the money we have – if we have any left – or how much we borrow. And if time is money, then borrowed money is borrowed time. So we really shouldn't.

Sorry France, The Bond Market Has Spoken: You Are Not In The "Core" AnymoreSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 10/16/2014 08:13 -0500
What's French for 'sacre bleu'? While the fundamental reality of France's record unemployment, plunging industrial production and economic growth, and treaty-busting deficits are all fact, for many months now, the 'market' has been convinced at Draghi's omnipotence and enabled French bonds to trade as if they are 'in the core'. But... on the heels of Sapin's slap in the face of Schaeuble, shunning of Brussels, the market appears to be changing its mind about France's credit worthiness (risk is up over 30% in the last week). Across Europe, we are witnessing a 2012 replay as re-denomination risk rises and risk spreads between the periphery (which means everything but Germany) and Germany surge...

Despite "Better Economy" & Tumbling Unemployment, Obama Approval Rating Sinks To Record LowSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 10/15/2014 20:23 -0500
"Unemployment down, jobs up," President Obama exclaimed, adding gloatingly that "manufacturing growing. Deficits cut by more than half. High School graduation up. College enrollment up. Energy production up." As Spectator's Ralph Reiland points out, Obamanomics, allegedly batting a thousand - everything that should be up was up and everything that should be down was down. "By every economic measure, we are better off now than we were when I took office," declared President Obama... so why, if everything is ponies and unicorns, is President Obama's approval rating at record lows. 61% of Americans disapprove of Obama's foreign policy with only 42% approving of the President overall.

Personal care appliance maker Conair announced that the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (CAFC), which hears all appeals of patent cases in the U.S, reversed a judgment of U.S. $46 million against Conair that had charged Conair hair dryers infringed on a patent owned by German Engineer Dr. Harry Gaus.
Conair said it utilized technology licensed from the Leviton Company that prevents electrocution from use of a hair dryer when it comes into contact with water. Though Conair's technology differed from that claimed in the Gaus patent, two Federal District Court judges and a jury had failed to understand this, according to Richard A. Margulies, vice president and general counsel of Conair.
"Having juries decide complex patent issues can be problematic because jurors can get caught up in the drama of the trial without comprehending the technical issues," Mr. Margulies said.
The original trial took place Jan. 22 to Feb. 1, 2002 in Manhattan, NY, U.S. The reverse judgment was made on April 1, 2004.
Conair said that Dr. Gaus and Patent Enforcement and Royalties, Ltd, a publicly held Canadian company that bought a portion of Dr. Gaus' patent rights, had various opportunities to settle the case, both before and after the trial. "Conair's confidence in its position and in the CAFC has been rewarded," Mr. Margulies said.

KIEV (Reuters) - An International Monetary Fund mission was due in Kiev on Tuesday to check on Ukraine's progress in implementing tough conditions for a $17 billion bailout, the Fund said.
The ex-Soviet republic, facing an insurgency in its eastern region, received a first tranche of about $3.2 billion in May under the two-year programme to shore up depleted foreign currency reserves and support the state budget.
Ukraine has already met some of the strict requirements for the loan such as raising the price of gas in households and industry and allowing the exchange rate of the national currency, the hryvnia, to float.
It is also required, among other steps, to reduce the budget deficit by about 2 percent of GDP each year from 2014-2016.
The IMF mission, scheduled to stay until July 3, will conduct a first review of the economic programme as well as Ukraine's future objectives, the IMF said in a statement.
The Kiev government's ability to meet the IMF targets may have been complicated by the crisis in Ukraine's eastern regions, where separatist rebellions erupted in April.
Donetsk and Luhansk regions, the crucible of the pro-Russia rebel uprising, together account for nearly 18 percent of Ukrainian GDP.
Ukraine is at loggerheads with Russia, a major trading partner, over the price of strategic supplies of Russian natural gas, which are a huge drain on the budget.
Its accusations of Russian involvement in the separatist insurgency have also helped drive ties to an all-time low.
Russia is a market for around a quarter of Ukrainian exports. The IMF sees a deterioration of non-energy trade relations as the primary risk to the successful implementation of Kiev's economic programme, Russia's deputy Finance Minister said in May.

Camp Enchantment is a Manzano Mountains getaway where New Mexico children battling cancer have been able to escape every summer since 1986. But this summer could be its last.
The American Cancer Society used to fund the camp but is now using that funding to focus more on cancer research.
"This is absolutely the first year that we have not known where our money is coming from," said Yolanda Vinajeras, psychosocial director for Camp Enchantment.
The camp has enough money for this summer, but they are uncertain about fall and next summer's camp.
The children and teens who attended Camp Enchantment know just how important the program is for their recovery.
"That was the first time I could hear the word 'cancer' in public and not cringe," said Meghan Maes, a liver cancer survivor who went to Camp Enchantment as a child.
Meghan was 8 years old and remembers her first day at camp like it was yesterday.
"I was just like, I don't tell people about my cancer," she said. "I was like, I don't tell people because I'm embarrassed, like I don't want them to know."
But Meghan wasn't alone.
"You feel so much better. You're like, look, I'm not alone here. I'm not the only girl with a scar or the only kid with cancer," she said.
People can donate to the Camp Enchantment Fund online at www.unmfund.org/fund/camp-enchantment.

"The Matrix has you," or thus spoke Morpheus to Neo in the blockbuster movie "The Matrix." A decade ago, that movie was science fiction. Today, it is chilling reality.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - In a creepy cross between Hollywood's "The Matrix" and George Orwell's 1984, we now know the NSA is collecting data on Americans from social networks, GPS tracking, and call logs. The agency is free to collect that data without any regard for "foreignness" either.
The latest data dump from the Snowden leak reveals that the NSA is using social networking, GPS, and phone metadata to track individual movements and associations. According to the New York Times, the NSA can tell where you are, who you're with, and often, what you're doing.
Having an extramarital affair? The NSA can determine that with a reasonable degree of accuracy and without bothering to search the specific text or content of your communication.
Are you traveling overseas? The NSA can now calculate where you are and whom you are with.
All of this allows the NSA to locate, follow, and ultimately enable the authorities to apprehend or disrupt terrorist plots.
However, it also treads on questionable constitutional grounds. A memorandum dated January 2011 says that the agency was now authorized to perform "large-scale graph analysis on very large sets of communications metadata without having to check foreignness." Those permissions extended to email addresses, phone numbers, and any other kind of identifier.
This means that despite protestations of the Obama administration to the contrary, the administration lied to us about contacts needing to be foreign or needing at least some taint of foreign connection to be valid for collection. The information can be seized at any time, on any person, for any reason or none at all. Currently, your information is being aggregated and can be freely searched without a warrant.
The New York Times also mentioned that "The agency can augment the communications data with material from public, commercial and other sources, including bank codes, insurance information, Facebook profiles, passenger manifests, voter registration rolls and GPS location information, as well as property records and unspecified tax data, according to the documents. They do not indicate any restrictions on the use of such 'enrichment' data, and several former senior Obama administration officials said the agency drew on it for both Americans and foreigners."
Nor is the NSA the only agency collecting and using data on individuals. Last month it was learned that the NSA was cooperating with the DEA and forwarding information on suspected drug traffickers to the IRS for use in their cases and the IRS was caught falsifying reports to cover up NSA assistance.
Nobody has any love for drug traffickers, and certainly not terrorists, however it brings to mind the question of who else besides the DEA and IRS is being assisted by the NSA and for what crimes? More importantly, when does all this go too far? While we can abide (for the most part) a program that is used exclusively to hunt terrorists and criminals, what is to prevent its use to hunt you?
The IRS tips, although used to pursue bad people, also represent the slaughter of a sacred cow. The agency has crossed the line. Our elected officials have already been caught lying to us.
A Machiavellian "the ends justify the means" approach to law enforcement can quickly devolve into a police state where virtually anybody can become a suspect. Imagine a not-too distant future where those who oppose Obamacare or the HHS abortion edict suddenly become enemies of the system?
Sound far fetched? Keep in mind that the IRS was recently used to target conservative groups, based on "signals" sent by the Obama administration. Another sacred cow sacrificed, and not at all in the name of law and order.
Also, bear in mind that books like 1984 and movies like "The Matrix" were within the realm of science fiction just a decade ago.
Today, they are for all intents and purposes, reality. The greater stretch of the imagination then, is to think that perhaps these tools won't be abused in the decade to come.
Fair warning.

Hershey Theatre to Screen ROCKY HORROR & E.T., 10/25
The classic films E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial and Rocky Horror Picture Show will be shown at Hershey Theatre on Saturday, October 25. E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial will be shown at 7:00 p.m. and Rocky Horror Picture Show will start at 11:59 p.m.
The 1982 classic film, E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial stars Henry Thomas, Drew Barrymore, Dee Wallace and Peter Coyote. It's about a group of alien botanists discovered and disturbed by an approaching human task force resulting in one little alien being left behind. Fortunately, E.T. was found and befriended by 10 year old Elliot. The two begin to communicate and work to create a device to communicate with E.T.'s family to bring him back home.
Rocky Horror Picture Show is a 1975 cult classic film starring Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, Richard O'Brien, and Meat Loaf. It was the movie that started the midnight-screening craze, inspiring audience members to dress like their favorite characters, sing along, and play with props as the movie dictates. The premise of the movie is far-fetched, with a young couple coming across a haunted castle on a rainy night. The mad scientist that lives there, Dr. Frank N. Furter, is about to embark on a strange experiment, as he unveils his latest creation, Rocky. This R-rated movie is bawdy but engaging with its devoted fan-base who know the script line for line!
Tickets are $8.00 for each show and it is general admission seating. Prop bags are available for $6.00 (no outside props will be permitted). Tickets and prop bags are available at Hershey Theatre Box Office, by phone at 717-534-3405 or online at www.HersheyTheatre.com.

How to beat procrastination (part 1)As I said on a previous submission, I'm planning to make some tutorials on the upcoming December. Before that, however, I feel like I can help on another subject, which comes before even starting your drawing: Procrastination. I mean, procrastination towards your own drawings.If you're not familiar with this word:pro-cras-ti-na-tion |prəˌkrastəˈnāSHən, prō-|noun"the action of delaying or postponing something." Why am I talking about this? Well, a year ago I used to be a professional procrastinator. I've imposed the 365 Days of Doodles challenge to myself for this particular reason.While procrastination is to some degree a natural phenomenon and can't be completely eradicated, you can use the following strategies to get in the habit of getting drawings done.Mind that these are not golden rules or such, just strategies that work fo

Why you not doctor?"Why you not doctor?""You doctor yet?""Doctor... good." If you are an immigrant of any kind, or know people who are the children of 1st and maybe even 2nd generation immigrants, you have heard their parents ask them this question time and time again. It probably made you wonder? "What's the infatuation with being a doctor?" Well, it's not so much an infatuation with being a medical practitioner. It's more a desire that immigrant parents have to want their children to be successful and well respected in the new country. Growing up, I was a pretty inquisitive child. I love to ask questions, take things apart to see how they worked, and I received good marks in school. Naturally, my 1st-gen immigrant parents took this as a sign of, "she is gonna be a doctor." And frankly, I didn't mind the thought. Science classes were my close favorites next to art classes and I loved reading theories, so the idea of being a practitioner of medicine didn't se

Equine artists, please raise your hand!So several years back I worked hard and put together a list of equine artists on dA with the help of some super awesome volunteers.

I have some thoughts and ideas that I'd like to work on but I need your help in indentifying as many equine artists on dA as possible. That's right, I'm bringing back the list! So, this is where you all come in. Are you an equine artist? Do you know any equine artists on dA? Please drop a comment with their or your username so I can add you to the list. For Equine-Artists-List 's purpose we have said that someone with 4 or more equine pieces may be considered an equine artist.

Product description
Using an easy-to-understand, step-by-step approach, "The 12-Lead ECG in Acute Coronary Syndromes" describes how to accurately interpret 12-lead ECGs for effective recognition and treatment of patients experiencing ACS. This 3rd edition simplifies learning with a new three-step method for interpreting 12-lead ECGs, first exposing you to new information, then offering examples, and finally asking you to apply your knowledge. Then it takes 12-lead interpretation one step further by providing strategies to determine the likelihood of the presence of STEMI versus other causes of ST elevation. Written by two well-known educators, Tim Phalen, a paramedic, and Barbara J. Aehlert, a nurse, this guide includes the latest emergency cardiac care guidelines, new research, and new information on treating ACS in both hospital and prehospital environments.

Review quote
"The challenge in providing a simplified method of 12-lead ECG acquisition and infarct recognition lies in determining the information that is absolutely necessary for effective recognition and treatment of acute coronary syndromes. If too much "nice to know" information is provided, you are quickly overwhelmed. If a text supplies an inadequate amount of "need to know" information, it is of little benefit to your clinical practice. In writing this book, we have attempted to walk that fine line and avoid both of these outcomes." - "Tim Phalen, Barbara Aehlert"

UNOSAT, the UN Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) Operational Satellite Applications Program, released a 3D map of piracy incidents in the Gulf of Aden for 2008. This 3D perspective map illustrates the relative spatial density of reported pirate incidents in the Gulf of Aden for 2008, current as of 21 November. Incidents that have occurred within 5km of the Maritime Security Patrol Area (MSPA) following implementation on 26 August 2008 are identified. A spatial analysis of the pattern changes in attacks has also been conducted. Satellite imagery has been used in this analysis for the identification of suspected hijacked vessel locations, and to identify vessel traffic patterns through the Gulf of Aden.
This work was done by UNOSAT in support of the ongoing humanitarian operations across the Horn of Africa, and in response to the UN Security Council Resolution 1816 (2008) adopted 2 June 2008, and IMO resolution adopted 29 Nov. 2007 calling for continued monitoring of Somali pirate activity. All piracy incident data has been obtained from open media sources, specifically the Piracy Reporting Center (PRC) of the International Maritime Bureau (IMB).
Incidents are classified into 3 main types: ´Hijacking´ where pirates have taken control of a ship; ´Attempted Hijacking´ where pirates have deployed weapons & attempted to board a vessel but failed; ´Suspicious Approach´ where a vessel has followed or chased another ship; Note, a number of reported ´Suspicious Approach´ incidents may represent accidental vessel approaches misperceived as a pirate threat. This is an initial assessment and has not been independently verified.
