"I am very impressed by ADSIC and the WSA awards for hosting such an exhibition. Gathering innovators in digital technology from around the world in Abu Dhabi highlights the vital role of the Emirate in the ICT sector. I have little doubt that the discussions on advancing science and research [in ICT] that occurred here over the past few days will have a positive impact on the global community," H.E. Dr. Al Mazroui said.
He added, "Mobile technology has gone beyond simply aiding communications and now plays a central role both as our personal offices and in allowing Governments to interact positively with their citizenry."
H.E. Rashid Al Mansoori expressed his delight with the visit of the FNC delegates led by the Secretary General, "We are honored by the visit of the FNC and the Secretary General and relish the opportunity to share the latest advancements in m-content. With the UAE contributing to this year's winning applications, we see excellent examples of how technological advancements in the government, private and media sectors can positively impact people's lives."
Speaking at the conclusion of the final WSA session, the ADSIC director general went on to say, "I would like to thank everybody for their participation in making The WSA Gala, Conference and Exposition successful. I applaud the sessions and discussions during the two days of the WSA that enriched our knowledge and allowed us to reflect on the importance of using modern ICT and m-content development as a fundamental tool of economic development. The outcomes of discussions as well as the exchange of experiences and solutions among all participants has proved that ICT can push the world toward achieving a more equal socio-economic landscape."
The events during the final day of the WSA awards included morning plenary sessions on knowledge transfer within the ICT industry and network engineering and optimization. During the afternoon, participants were able to break out into workshops and offered the opportunity examine new areas of possible ICT advancement with the WSA winners.
"It was Abu Dhabi's highly developed digital infrastructure, among other things, that enabled it to achieve a great success in hosting this event. The Emirates have taken a great step towards positioning themselves at the top of their league in encouraging m-content development in the Arab region," said Nawaf Abdul Rahman, head of IT and the General Youth Association, Bahrain.
Abu Dhabi police who participated in the events stressed the importance of such events to promote Abu Dhabi and the Yas Marina Circuit. "We have benefitted from the discussions about the different uses of mobile technology in the winners exhibition. The Abu Dhabi police are already using many of these advancements and will continue to look for areas to improve our mobile content," said an officer in attendance.
Iheanyichukwu Enyika from Nigeria, a college student of 22 years old and the youngest winner of the Special Regional Achievement Awards, said, "I am very happy to visit Abu Dhabi and will do so again. I am working hard to develop mobile content that will suite everyone."
Dorthy Jordan, Director General of Information for the Technology Institute of Ghana – The Kofi Anan Excellence in ICT Center, said, "Although I am a world traveler, this is my first time in Abu Dhabi. In addition to enjoying ourselves, we have made use of our time studying every aspect and outcome of the WSA's to improve our mobile technology developments."

Two Clarkdale residential developments dormant for years due to the economic downturn are showing signs of life again, Community and Economic Development Director Jodi Filardo said.
Two companies purchased Mountain Gate subdivision this year, which is now mostly free of bankruptcy court entanglements. Clarkdale Public Works Department officials inspected completed infrastructure in December. Developers have started clearing vacant lots and gating off undeveloped streets to discourage trespass and illegal dumping, Filardo said.
Another development, Crossroads at Mingus, is also in the beginning stages of a comeback. The only investors left standing, John and Colleen Tobias, are taking steps to connect the dormant development to Clarkdale water and wastewater.
"It's a nice way to start the new year, with life being breathed into little, tiny Clarkdale," Filardo said.
Another initiative moving forward in Clarkdale is the creation of a master plan to outline the development of a 2.2-mile stretch of the Verde River.
There are only two locations that allow access to the Verde River in Clarkdale without trespassing across private property. One is located at the bridge that crosses the river on Tuzigoot Road and the other is at Tuzigoot National Monument.
Driving around town one day in June, Mayor Doug Von Gausig and Town Manager Gayle Mabery were taking inventory of the town's most underperforming attractions and realized the river topped the list.
Soon an idea developed and the Clarkdale Town Council directed staff to move ahead. Currently, Special Projects Planner Enalo Lockard is working to formulate the plan, which will be vetted, discussed and modified to satisfy the wishes of Clarkdale residents who want to participate in the development.
The plan could include a riparian park with trails and amenities stretching from the 20-million-ton copper slag pile northeast of town to the national monument.
"Conceptually, we're trying to create a park upstream, right where the river enters Clarkdale," Von Gausig said. "It would be a 40- to 50-acre park, with plenty of beautiful, old-growth cottonwood trees."
An area near the slag pile would form the upper anchor of the park, where there would be parking, picnic tables and other amenities, he said.
Filardo said she expected to work with representatives at Tuzigoot National Monument, whose cooperation will be key to the success of the plan.
"We need to get it cleaned up, signed and managed in a way people feel comfortable doing float trips," he said. "Tubers and kayakers could float down and end up getting out at Tuzigoot [National Monument]."
Eventually, the town or a franchisee might operate vehicles to shuttle floaters back and forth between the monument and the park, Von Gausig said.

Spotsy plan is a road too far
THE IDEA of a western bypass around Fredericksburg has been circulating for 40 years or so. Different routes have been considered, none less attractive than the plan proposed by two Spotsylvania representatives on the Fredericksburg Area Metropolitan Planning Organization.
The irony of highway projects is this: The more the population grows, the more you need new roads--and the harder it is to build them. Yesterday's played-out farm, a cheap buy, is now a housing development, in a state that's hard-wired to protect homeowners' rights. Yet anyone driving State Route 3 or U.S. 17 west of Fredericksburg or Interstate 95 can attest to the need for some sort of western bypass.
The latest "solution" to area congestion, though, put forth by Spotsylvania County supervisors David Ross and Tim McLaughlin, is a head-scratcher. Connecting I-95 at the Centrepoint Parkway interchange with a place close to where Route 3 and State Route 20 connect, in Orange County's Wilderness area, won't exacerbate congestion in the Fredericksburg area. That's clear from computer models. All it might do is help residents who fear a more easterly crossing of the Rappahannock would impact their quality of life.
What exactly is the Ross-McLaughlin highway supposed to provide? A much not-needed shortcut between Culpeper and Stafford? A slightly quicker way to get to Charlottesville from I-95? Or is it a not-in-my-backyard ploy by Mr. Ross and Mr. McLaughlin--a way to keep the road out of their districts? And with all the traffic issues facing an area that is expected to double in population by 2035, is this swing west around the region the best use of limited highways funds? Clearly it is not.
In fact, the Spotsylvania supes' plan is helping foster the opposite of regional cooperation. At a Fredericksburg Area Metropolitan Planning Organization meeting Monday, Stafford Supervisor Gary Snellings said Ross' proposal wasn't popular in his county, Fredericksburg councilman Matt Kelly added that the city, which owns river easement in the area, wanted more input in the process, and the FAMPO members in general were opposed to the idea.
And let us not forget the Civil War. Remember the pitched battle over the Wilderness Walmart? How much hallowed ground will this proposed western route swallow up?
With FAMPO locked in heated debate, no solution seems to be forthcoming. Now State Transportation Secretary Sean Connaughton (former chairman of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors and no stranger to traffic problems) is stepping in. He says the dispute has gone on too long. Although the Commonwealth Transportation Board, which he chairs, doesn't like to get embroiled in local controversies they'll take this one on.
Good. If a connector or western bypass is built, though, it should not swing all the way out into Orange County. There are far more sensible ways to use highway funds.
Should we ease commuters' pain or build A Road Too Far?
That's a no-brainer.

Romney: "Eliminate Government and Shutter Cabinet Agencies--Bring Books Back Into Balance"
Published on March 26th, 2012 @ 10:44:48 pm , using 1399 words
Weekly Standard
By Stephen Hayes
Mitt Romney wants to eliminate government programs and shutter cabinet agencies. Doing so, he says, is "the critical thing" that needs to be done in order to bring government books back into balance and to begin restoring the promise of America. "Actually eliminating programs is the most important way to keep Congress from stuffing the money back into them," he told me in a 30-minute interview on March 21. It's a smart answer and a deeply conservative one.
But Romney, ever cautious, is reluctant to get specific about the programs he would like to kill. He did this in his bid for the Senate 18 years ago and remembers the political ramifications.
"One of the things I found in a short campaign against Ted Kennedy was that when I said, for instance, that I wanted to eliminate the Department of Education, that was used to suggest I don't care about education," Romney recalled. "So I think it's important for me to point out that I anticipate that there will be departments and agencies that will either be eliminated or combined with other agencies. So for instance, I anticipate that housing vouchers will be turned over to the states rather than be administered at the federal level, and so at this point I think of the programs to be eliminated or to be returned to the states, and we'll see what consolidation opportunities exist as a result of those program eliminations. So will there be some that get eliminated or combined? The answer is yes, but I'm not going to give you a list right now."
Romney's answer goes a long way to explain why some conservatives have been reluctant to embrace his candidacy. They want a list. They want it to be long, they want it to be detailed, and they want a candidate who is not only willing to provide one but eager to campaign on it. This is especially true after the historic success of the unapologetic, aggressive strain of conservatism that triumphed in the 2010 midterm elections.
That's not Mitt Romney. It never will be.
In a conversation with him, you can feel him thinking about his words, trying to make sure he doesn't say anything that could become the latest in a string of gaffes—some real, some manufactured—that have dogged his campaign. His inveterate risk-aversion often comes off as a lack of commitment to conservative policies and goals, a perception that confounds his advisers, who say that Romney, in the spirit of the turnaround campaigns that marked his career in the private sector, is dedicated to profound, even radical, changes in what the federal government does and how it operates.
Thus far, their assurances haven't been enough. Exit polls in primaries show Romney has difficulty earning support from voters who identify themselves as "very conservative," usually winning just one out of three voters in that group. If he'd been able to win a majority of those voters, he would have been the de facto nominee weeks ago. But their resistance continues. Even in his decisive victory in Illinois, he won just 36 percent of self-identified "very conservative" voters. I asked him why.
"You know, I don't know that I'm the pundit that can make that analysis for you," he says with the laugh that often accompanies his answers to difficult questions. "I describe what my positions are on issues and lay out my policy and people will either warm to it or not, depending upon how they connect with it. So as to all of the factors that are associated with those that support me and those that support me less—well, I'm going to let you do that work."
After I told him that I wasn't sure I'd done that analysis well, he offered something of an answer.
"Obviously there are some for whom coming from Massachusetts is an issue," he theorizes. "There are some—the health care plan in Massachusetts they can't get over. There are others for whom religion is an issue. You'll have to do the cross-tabs on a lot of things to figure out where that is, but one thing I can assure you is that the one group that will certainly be with me in the general election if I'm the nominee will be conservatives and very conservatives. Because they're certainly not going to vote for Barack Obama."
Romney had given a similar answer to Megyn Kelly in an interview on Fox News. Conservatives grumbled that his answer suggested his campaign was taking them for granted. Even in a Romney-Obama general election contest, the choice for potential voters isn't binary. Republicans unenthusiastic about the nominee could stay home. According to exit polls, some 4 million fewer Republicans voted in 2008 than had turned out four years earlier. And polls suggest that enthusiasm for the Republican frontrunner this time is lower than it was at a similar point in the 2008 contest.
Nonetheless, a repeat of those turnout woes seems unlikely, in part because the Barack Obama on the ballot won't be an abstraction—a candidate who ran as a post-partisan leader vowing to end the wars and economic uncertainty that seemed to exhaust Americans at the end of the Bush administration. He is, instead, a president with a record, a man who has added more debt in three years than his predecessor added in eight and whose two signature domestic policy achievements—the stimulus and Obamacare—are so unpopular that Democrats avoid using the terms. The list of his foreign policy and national security accomplishments doesn't go far beyond authorizing the operation that killed Osama bin Laden.
Still, for Romney to take conservatives for granted would be "political malpractice," according to a highly regarded Republican strategist not affiliated with any presidential campaign. "An animating feature of the explosive growth of the Tea Party was due to their being dismissed (even before they were dissed and demeaned) as an insignificant voice."
Romney hasn't ignored this part of the Republican base. He has appeared at Tea Party events, he is a regular on conservative talk radio, and he has courted their leaders.
Last Thursday Romney reached out to the de facto leader of that group on a trip to Washington. Senator Jim DeMint, who vowed not to endorse in the Republican presidential primary, came awfully close in comments to reporters after that meeting.
"I can tell conservatives from my perspective that, I'm not only comfortable with Romney, I'm excited about the possibility of him possibly being our nominee," he said.
The following day, Senator Pat Toomey, a DeMint ally and former head of the Club for Growth, also praised Romney. "I think Mitt Romney is a conservative, and I think if elected he'll govern as a conservative." That, of course, is the big question. To have a movement conservative like Toomey offer that kind of backing is no small thing.
Toomey added: "I think Governor Romney is absolutely committed to the principles of limited government. I think he knows the free enterprise system is a source of prosperity, and opportunity, and personal fulfillment, and elevating people out of poverty."
Toomey will not endorse, but his words echo those Romney uses on his own behalf. "I have a number of liberal folks I've met with, and I listen to them and I think, 'How can you be so clueless? How do you not understand that free enterprise is the only economic strategy which has ever lifted people out of poverty and provided long-term prosperity? And you continue to try and find ways to attack free enterprise?' I simply don't understand it."
The president is one of those liberals. Romney's critique of Obama is often focused on competence more than ideology. "He's a nice guy, but he's in over his head," Romney often says.
Why not say more about ideology? Romney says the two critiques are mutually reinforcing.
Obama, he says, has an "agenda which is contrary to the interests of the economy and the nation. And I think a lot of people who have that agenda are clueless."

FTC Tells Net: Agree to Stop Invading Privacy (Or We'll Say 'Stop' Again)
Published on March 26th, 2012 @ 10:15:01 pm , using 688 words
Wired / Ryan Singel
The FTC put the online advertising and user tracking industry on notice Monday that it's time to clean up its act and start treating users' data with respect, laying out broad guidelines for companies to follow. But the agency stopped short of calling for federal regulation of online data collectors, amid protests from online companies that regulation would kill a vibrant industry.
The report adds more weight to the Commerce Department's own recent report and the White House's call for an online bill of rights. The FTC's report (.pdf) outlines broad principles that the FTC wants browser makers, ISPs, online ad companies, search engines and social networks — as well as offline data collecting entities — to pledge to obey.
Companies that do pledge to obey the code, but then fail to uphold them, could then be investigated by the FTC for "unfair business practices," much as the FTC has fined and penalized companies for violating their own privacy policies (even though there's no national requirement to publish a privacy policy). That's how the FTC imposed 20-year privacy audits on both Facebook and Google — using their own privacy policies against them.
"With this Report, the Commission calls on companies to act now to implement best practices to protect consumers' private information. These best practices include making privacy the "default setting" for commercial data practices and giving consumers greater control over the collection and use of their personal data through simplified choices and increased transparency," the FTC said, adding that doing so should increase user's trust in services and increase business for all.
While there's no stick involved yet for online companies, the report did call for federal legislation that would force transparency on giant data collection companies like Choicepoint and Lexis Nexis. Few Americans know about those companies' databases but they are used by law enforcement, employers and landlords. The FTC is asking Congress to make it easier for Americans to view and correct their data, as legislation requires with credit bureaus.
The FTC report emphasizes what it calls "privacy by design," alluding to the idea that privacy and data security should be built into any service, not an afterthought. The four principles called for in the report are data security, reasonable collection limits, sound retention practices, and data accuracy. While the report is new, the principles are based on 40 year princples known as Fair Information Practices.
The FTC did not, however, lay down any hard or fast rules. For instance, data rentention periods are left to companies to decide – so that a mortgage broker can keep payment history information for the life of a mortgage, whereas a mobile app that collects a user's current location would be encouraged to delete that data much faster.
Instead of prescriptions, the FTC wants a set of self-regulatory groups to build on these principles and issue best practices for various industries, and then have individual companies agree to abide by such rules.
That's despite the report's own admission that this model, which has been tried by the FTC since 2000 in regards to online privacy, has been a failure.
Commission agrees that, to date, self-regulation has not gone far enough. In most areas, with the notable exception of efforts surrounding Do Not Track, there has been little self-regulation of the data broker industry. For example, the FTC's recent survey of mobile apps marketed to children revealed that many of these apps fail to provide any disclosure about the extent to which they collect and share consumers' personal data. Similarly, efforts to establish self-regulatory rules concerning consumer privacy have fallen short.
These examples illustrate that even in some well-established markets, basic privacy concepts like transparency about the nature of companies' data practices and meaningful consumer control are absent. This absence erodes consumer trust.
As if to give the rules some more weight, the FTC does say that it is joining the White House and Commerce department's call for a "baseline" consumer privacy law – though it's not clear whether there's any real political will to do so, since setting privacy rules in writing is hard.
Just ask the FTC.

James Cameron: Dive to ocean bottom was like trip to 'another planet and back'
Published on March 26th, 2012 @ 09:28:29 pm , using 1107 words
Fox News
In James Cameron's fantasy films, like "Avatar" and "The Abyss," the unexplored is splashed in color and fraught with alien danger. But on his dive to the deepest place on Earth, reality proved far different: white, barren and bland.
Yet otherworldly -- and amazing.
"I felt like I literally, in the space of one day, had gone to another planet and come back," Cameron said Monday after returning from the cold, dark place in the western Pacific Ocean, seven miles (11 1/4 kilometers) below the surface. "It was a very surreal day."
Cameron is the first person to explore the deepest valley in the ocean since two men made a 20-minute foray there more than half a century ago. He spent about three hours gliding through the icy darkness, illuminated only by special lights on the one-man sub he helped design. That was only about half as long as planned because his battery ran low.
This deepest section of the 1,500-mile(2,415-kilometer)-long Mariana Trench is so untouched that at first it appeared dull. But there's something oddly dark and compelling about the first snippets of video that Cameron shot. It's not what you see, but where it puts you. There is a sense of aloneness that Cameron conveys in the wordless video showing his sub gliding across what he calls "the very soft, almost gelatinous flat plain."
"My feeling was one of complete isolation from all of humanity," Cameron said.
It may not have looked all that dramatic and, in a way, Cameron was "doing exploration with training wheels," said Andy Bowen, who heads the deep submergence lab at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.
But it was an amazing start.
The images "do lack the visual impact of highly colorized 3D spectacular representations of the ocean," Bowen said. But there are still "dramatic discoveries to be made."
The minute-long snippet, released by trip sponsor National Geographic, is just a coming attraction. Cameron will keep diving in the area, some 200 miles (322 kilometers) southwest of the island of Guam, where the depth of the trench is called Challenger Deep. And he's already filming it in 3D for later viewing.
To Cameron, the main thing was to appreciate just being there. He didn't do that when he first dove to the wreck of the Titanic, and Apollo astronauts have said they never had time to savor where they were.
"There had to be a moment where I just stopped, and took it in, and said, `This is where I am; I'm at the bottom of the ocean, the deepest place on Earth. What does that mean?"' Cameron told reporters during a conference call.
"I just sat there looking out the window, looking at this barren, desolate lunar plain, appreciating," Cameron said.
He also realized how alone he was, with that much water above him.
"It's really the sense of isolation, more than anything, realizing how tiny you are down in this big, vast, black, unknown and unexplored place," the "Titanic" director said.
Cameron said he had hoped to see some sort of strange deep sea creature that would excite the storyteller in him, but he didn't.
He didn't see tracks of small primitive sea animals on the ocean floor, as he did when he dove more than five miles (eight kilometers) down several weeks ago. All he saw was voracious shrimp-like critters no bigger than an inch (2.5 centimeters). In future missions, Cameron plans to bring "bait" -- like chicken -- to set out.
Cameron said the mission was all about exploration, science and discovery. He is the only person to dive there solo, using a lime-green sub called Deepsea Challenger. He is the first person to reach that depth -- 35,576 feet (10,843.5 meters) -- since it was initially explored in 1960.
There had been a race to reach the bottom among rich and famous adventurers. Sir Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin Group, has been building his own one-man sub to explore the ocean depths. Cameron's dive was "a fantastic achievement," Branson told The Associated Press.
Branson said he hoped to be the first to explore a different deep-sea location, diving later this year to the deepest part of the Atlantic, the Puerto Rican trench, which is only five miles from his home. Just shy of six miles deep, the area has not been explored yet.
Branson also hopes to join Cameron in a tandem dive of solo subs. "Together, we'll make a formidable team," he said.
While Cameron's dive was far longer than that of U.S. Navy Capt. Don Walsh and Swiss engineer Jacques Piccard 52 years ago, he didn't reach the trench walls because he was running low on battery power. He said he would return, as would the sub's Australian co-designer, Ron Allum.
"I see this as the beginning," Cameron said. "It's not a one-time deal and then moving on. This is the beginning of opening up this new frontier."
"To me, the story is in the people in their quest and curiosity and their attempt to understand."
The trip to the deepest point took two hours and 36 minutes and started Sunday afternoon, U.S. East Coast time.
His return aboard his 12-ton sub was a "faster-than-expected 70-minute ascent," according to National Geographic, which sponsored the expedition. Cameron is a National Geographic explorer-in-residence.
The only thing that went wrong was a hydraulic failure that kept Cameron from collecting rocks and critters and bringing them back to land.
Science like this takes time, but Cameron is committed to doing it, said Woods Hole's Bowen, who ran a program that sent an unmanned sub to the same place in 2009.
"The reality of exploring such an environment is that at times it can be very boring; exploring these environments isn't always about some dramatic highly visual discovery," Bowen said. "The scientific process is exhausting and sometimes it takes a significant amount of sweat, if you will, to uncover secrets."
Cameron did sweat -- and shiver.
When the 6-foot-2 (1.87-meter) Cameron climbed into the cramped sub, his head hit one end and his feet the other. It was warm outside because it was near the equator; it was toasty inside, temperatures topping 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38 Celsius), because of the heat given off by the sub's electronics. It felt "like a sauna," he said.
But as he plunged into the deep, it grew cold inside the sub as the waters outside dropped to around 36 degrees (2 Celsius), he said.
The pressure on the sub was immense -- comparable to three SUVs resting on a toe. The super-strong sub shrank three inches under that pressure, Cameron said.
"It's a very weird environment," he said. "I can't say it's very comfortable. And you can't stretch out."

Gingrich: Not quitting, because race isn't decided
Published on March 26th, 2012 @ 09:13:23 pm , using 482 words
CNN Politics / Gregory Wallace
(CNN) – Newt Gingrich may be far behind in the GOP delegate count – he has a quarter of the number frontrunner Mitt Romney does – but said on CNN's "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer" that he isn't bowing out of the race.
"I think this is not over until it's over and obviously, if he does become the nominee, I will support him," the former House speaker said of Romney, calling him "the weakest front runner in modern times."
– Follow the Ticker on Twitter: @PoliticalTicker
The former Massachusetts governor leads a four-man field - including Gingrich, former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, and Texas Rep. Ron Paul – ambling towards 1,144, the so-called "magic number" of GOP delegates needed for the nomination. Almost two-dozen contests remain, the last of which, Utah, votes on June 26.
"If he can get to 1,144, he's the nominee," Gingrich said. "But if he can't get to 1,144, on 26th of June, it will be a wide open primary at that point. If Romney can't clinch it, I think it becomes pretty wide open."
He likened the Republican race this year to the 2008 Democratic primary, when then-Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama wrangled for months after Sen. John McCain became the de facto GOP nominee.
In the case Romney does not win outright, Gingrich said "we'll have a discussion for those 60 days for who ought to be the right person to beat Barack Obama."
Santorum has also committed to remain in the race and is currently second in the delegate count. When pressed by CNN's Wolf Blitzer, Gingrich said Santorum "he doesn't have a guaranteed lock any more than I do or Romney does" on the nomination.
When President Obama spoke out on the death last month of Florida teen Trayvon Martin, Gingrich called his remarks "disgraceful." Asked about his comments, and a critical response to them by one of President Obama's reelection advisers, Gingrich did not repeat the criticism.
"I think he should show empathy for that family. I think he should show empathy for every family that loses a child," Gingrich said. "We should be concerned about any young American of any background who ends up getting killed. I think all of us should reach out with our hearts to any American."
With the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, or "Obamacare," as many know it, before the Supreme Court, Gingrich said he expects the court to find unconstitutional its requirement that individuals carry health insurance or face a penalty – and, because of that, strike down the entire law. He said his past support for an individual mandate came with a "libertarian opt out clause" which would allow individuals "other ways of meeting their financial responsibilities."

Brilliant Obama Speaks To Soon "Again" : Pics Surface Suggesting Trayvon Martin a "Gang-Banger"
Published on March 26th, 2012 @ 04:22:03 pm , using 168 words
From everything the public has been told, Trayvon Martin was a fresh-faced, innocent looking teenager and the visage of the man who shot him, George Zimmerman, is right out of a booking photo.
The media narrative being sold is quite clear, Trayvon Martin is the innocent victim here and George Zimmerman is a horrible bigot who attacked the young man for doing nothing more than buying skittles while being black. Even Barack Obama seems to accept the fresh-faced innocence of Trayvon, stating, "If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon." More on that later.
It's becoming more and more clear however that the innocent appearance the mainstream media is so desperate to apply to Trayvon isn't at all accurate. The picture we're used to seeing to represent Trayvon Martin appears to be a far cry from how he actually looked once he was a few years older:

CHRIST THE KING SUNDAY November 23, 2014 9:30am
This Sunday we celebrate the last Sunday of the Church year.
We are reminded that already Christ is King, despite the voices of this world rising in disagreement. Jesus the Christ has already conquered this world together with sin and death and the power of the devil.
We are already the citizens of His realm and together with Him we are on the way to His Coronation, as John foretells us in Rev. 11:15:
Then the seventh angel sounded his trumpet; and there were great voices in heaven, declaring, The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever."
AWAKENING PRAYER AND PRAISE: November 23, 2014 6:30pm
For Those Who Hunger for the Presence of the Lord: AWAKENING PRAYER AND PRAISE
Our new name reflects the desire to seek God for His Awakening not only for our church but also for our area.
Come and join us as we spend time in His Presence, in His Peace, Love and Joy, so that we can be empowered to be His servants. (Rom. 14:17-18)
Nov 26, 2014 6:30 P.M.
As you prepare to Give Thanks this year at church and at home, why not spend time considering how richly you are blessed. On Thanksgiving Eve, we will come together to thank our God for His blessings and interventions in the life of our families.

A private function? We'd walked and climbed and fallen over and broken and passed out and patched up and almost come to tears (sorry, forgot to mention that part) only to be told there was a private function?

Nice - 13th September 2013
Today we got up at a reasonable time to spend out last full day in Nice. Instead of taking the tram to the markets and beach from our hotel, we decided to walk and check out the old town first (where our hotel is situated) and walk towards new town and then to the beach. On our way, maybe 10minutes in, mum finally bought an over-the-shoulder bag (that she's been searching for since London) from this little ...

Aaahh Nice, today's blog title came about when I tried to think of how I would describe Nice. Strolling through the town centre with its trams, Net and I also thought that it reminded us a little of Melbourne with the trams running through the centre of the mall.

The place was absolutely packed and ...

She had a solid track record. She interviewed well. All her references checked out.
But she's completed her training six (6) months ago and, for whatever reason, she's performing well below your expectations.
It cost you/your organization a pretty penny to get her this far. And don't forget, you made the choice to hire her, and your reputation as a good judge of talent is hanging out there for all to see. Read more…

Kid-friendly places with live music (or other entertainment)
- The Dairy Queen Nov 27, 2012 08:12 AM
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, however and wherever you spent it.
We've enjoyed the live music at Hells Kitchen brunch and the Sunday evenings (beginning at 5pm) music at Palumbos in St. Paul. And occasionally (and randomly as far as I can tell) at Sea Salt when they were open for the season.
What other Twin Cities restaurants (or cafes, I suppose) can we take the kiddo to for live entertainment, especially music, on weekends or weekdays before 7pm? And that's the hitch, by the way, that the live music has to be available during the day or in the late afternoon/early evening before witching hour.
Thank you!
The Loring Pasta Bar has music on weekends starting at 6. We used to take our kids there when they were younger without problem. They loved the music and it was usually loud enough (or empty enough) when we went early so that no-one was bothered by the kid noise. They have a music schedule on their website.
Shamrocks is very kid-friendly if you get there early (so you don't have to wait for a table), and on Sundays kids eat free and the Mouldy Figs (old-timey jazz) usually play, starting at 6pm. The food has been pretty inconsistent for the past few years, but it's still a cheap and fun way to hear some live tunes with the little ones.
In summer, any outdoor festival will usually provide, but I'm sure you already know that!
re: diesel
Oh I LOVE the Mouldy Figs! They're really fun. Haven't seen them in a long time - thanks for the reminder! I think they're only there every other Sunday though.
GInkgo coffeeshop on Snelling in St. Paul has a live kids show at 10 am one Saturday a month. I had another venue in mind but just blanked on it. Will repost when I remember.
On Fridays during the lunch hour (noon for sure) a jazz gypsy accordionist/guitarist plays at the Russian Tea House for tips. We also go to the Coffee Grounds coffee shop in Falcon Heights for nighttime events, including a P.J. storyhour ... but their food is atrocious. Honestly, they would do a better business if their food weren't ..ick. But business I guess is okay there.
What about Famous Dave's for brunch on Saturday or Sunday? It looks like they have music to accompany their brunch.
Kramarczuk's has live folk music on Fridays starting at 6:30. (Though one group seems to start at 7, so confirm before you head out.) It's very kid friendly and dancing (especially polkaing) is encouraged.
Oh such a great list. Keep 'em coming. Winter is very long!
Slightly off-topic of the live entertainment criteria is this new bakery I just heard about that apparently has a children's play area: http://tasteoflovebakery.com/
I haven't been yet, but who can't use more cake?
re: The Dairy Queen
Equally off topic: Do you have a train lover in the family? You do know about Choo Choo Bob's, don't you? It's on the same block as Izzy's, and it saved our sanity during a long, long winter with (hyper) active young ones. Trotter's is around the corner, if you should need protein or a salad. You'll have to provide your own music, though.
re: AnneInMpls
too true about Choo Choo Bob's! I just wish Izzy's winter hours (at least last year, not sure what their hours are right now) meant they were open when we were there as the promise of ice cream is the only way I can get my kiddo to LEAVE Choo Choo Bob's... ha!
The Happy Gnome (I know, I know, NOT AT ALL TDQ's favorite place!!!) has (had? haven't been for ages) a Jazz Brunch that my kiddo loved when we randomly happened upon it once.
re: turtlebella
Oh, now see, that might be just the extra incentive I need to get to Happy Gnome!
I wouldn't suppose Trotters around the corner carries Izzy's?
And, yes, we love Choo CHoo Bob's. And we can pair it with a visit to Izzy's, Trotters, or Kopplins. How's Kim's Chinese?
re: The Dairy Queen
Kim's Chow Mein is what I imagine all of the "local" hounds mean when they talk about Chinese food of their youth. I ate there only once in 1994 (yes - I can tell you that - I was taking classes at St. Thomas that summer). Blah bordering on bleh. For all I know, it may be better after 20 years. I personally doubt it, but it has a following on Yelp.
And, if I remember correctly, you're originally from the west coast, aren't you TDQ? If so, be warned that you've crossed over into the domain of east coast chow mein. (Crunchy rather than chewy chow mein noodles.)
re: bob s
Yeah, that's pretty much how I imagined Kim's. I honestly don't mind Americanized Chinese food, as long as the food follows the principles of good food in general: you know, fresh vegetables not overcooked and oversauced, that sort of thing, but if you're saying it was bleh a couple of decades ago, I"m guessing it still is. Who is their target market? College kids? And, yes, I'm still taken aback by crunchy chow mein noodles!
re: turtlebella
^5 for not making me the only one to suggest Happy Gnome. :) I didn't even pay her!
re: The Dairy Queen
Maybe! I somehow suspect we live in the same 'hood. We probably see each other and just don't realize it.
About 99% certain they don't have ramen. They would have totally nailed the non-stuffed burger category though!

Cindy Campbell, sister of hip-hop pioneer DJ Kool Herc, has given further details on her brother's weekend hospital scare, which left rap fans worried over the music legend's fate.
According to Herc's sibling, the weekend hospital stay related to his fall 2010 kidney stone ailment.
Herc's sister, Cindy Campbell, said that her brother sought treatment at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx in October for kidney stones. As part of the procedure, a stent was temporarily inserted to alleviate the pressure. She said that Herc had to reschedule several appointments to remove the stent due to bad weather and not feeling well. She said the last time he spoke with the hospital, a little over a week ago, he was told that he needed to place a deposit. "He told me he asked them to give him a figure," she said. "But nobody has given him any solid information." (New York Times)
Campbell also warned hip-hop artists of the dangers of not acquiring health insurance.
Fans, promoters and D.J.'s have rallied to Herc's side, vowing to raise funds to help him pay his bills. In the meantime, Ms. Campbell said, her brother was at home and taking painkillers to alleviate the discomfort. The larger issue, she said, was how Herc's generation of graying rappers and D.J.'s would cope with the medical issues bound to come their way. "There isn't any type of medical program for these artists," she said. "Maybe it takes a visible person like Herc for people to pay attention. Maybe we can help set something up. My brother and I were trailblazers. We tried to save the building. Now we're going to advocate for plenty of other artists and have a program to assist them." (New York Times)
Reports of Herc's health complications emerged online last weekend.
DJ Premier shared some terrible news today on the health condition of DJ Kool Herc. According to Premo's site, "It's doesn't look positive as Kool Herc doesn't have a health insurance and the billings go higher and higher. No more details were given but he is in need of some financial help as soon as possible. We at DJPremierBlog.com pray for the best…" DJ Kool Herc has helped launch the genre of hip-hop to where it is today. Anything helps! (The Source)
In 2009, Wu-Tang Clan's Raekwon talked to SOHH about the importance of health care.
"[You should] always have health care benefits when you a rapper or whatever," Raekwon told SOHH. "But a lot of times we [paid medical bills] with cash. We them kinda dudes 'Yo, how much, put it on the table.' You know what I mean? That's ill that this conversation came up because, you know, I had to get a good plan, you know what I mean? Because at the end of the day, you wanna make sure when you're getting older you stay healthy and do the right thing for your body. And definitely, I was thinking about going to a city that carries free health care and put my moms there because she's getting older and she has to get in that frame of mind to know what it really is to be all right. If you see your moms getting older and her body getting weaker, you thinking of them. We still on some rebel sh*t, you know what I mean? We feel like, boom, knock a little cold out whatever, whatever. But it's important to have them things and far as rap is concerned, I never took advantage of them situations, knock on wood I haven't got sick or fell out or had to utilize that, you know, I had a few scares though but it was more less family scares, you see your moms or your girl going through something, automatically, you want them to be covered. And that's a must right there. For me, I have a little policy but I'm working on getting a bigger one. [laughs] And writing a will out too." (SOHH)

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A pro-Republican group is pouring $25 million into new TV ads that blame President Barack Obama for the sluggish economy and call for lower taxes and less regulation.
The super PAC Crossroads GPS says the ads will air in nine battleground states from July 10 through early August.
The ads track comments and proposals made by GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney. They call for more energy production, reduced taxes and regulation, and an end to the health law that Republicans call "Obamacare."
Crossroads GPS says the policies would boost job growth.
The ads will air in Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, New Hampshire, Ohio, Iowa, Michigan, Colorado and Nevada.

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
Dec. 17, 1940. H. ARENS ETAL 2,225,439
APPARATUS FOR INTENSIFICATION 0F WEAK RADIATIONS Filed March 13, 1940 'f/ama flrens Karl van Braewen I N VE N TORS THEIR .-'\TTORNEYL$ Patented Dec. 17, 1940 TE T T OFFICE APPARATUS For. INTENSIFICATION or WEAK RADIATIONS Hans Arens, Dessau, and Karl van Briessen, Leipzig, Germany, assignors to General Aniline & Film Corporation, New York, N. Y., a corporation of Delaware Application March 13, 1940, Serial No. 323,7 20 In Germany February 28, 1939 Claims.
This invention relates to an apparatus for intensification of weak radiations especially of lightor ultraviolet emissions.
According to the principle of the light rod it is known to conduct a pencil of rays of certain aperture, inside of a glass rod 2. smaller or bigger distance and have it emerge then at the end thereof. In this process there is made use of the total reflection of the rod, in order to conduct light-rays entering at the upper end of the rod unchanged through it.
Moreover, it is known that the total reflection may be used to intensify to visibility weak radiations at one end of the rod, for example lightrays or ultraviolet emissions, if a plate or a film is dyed in the mass with a fluorescent dyestulf,
which is excited by the radiation.
This process has the disadvantage that losses occur very easily on account of absorption caused by the dyestuff inside of the optical medium through which the fluorescent light is conducted, if the dyestuif, as it happens quite frequently, absorbs a spectral portion of the fluorescent light.
The main object of the present invention is therefore to provide an apparatus for the intensification of weak radiations not showing the above disadvantages.
Another object is to provide an apparatus using fluorescent light being excited by the Weak radiation.
Still another object is to make use of the total reflection without loss of light on account of absorption in the fluorescent dyestufi.
Another object is to make one end-face of the apparatus, for instance of the glass rod, strongly reflecting.
Still further objects will become apparent from the detailed specification following hereinafter.
In the drawing, which forms a part of this 9 specification, Figure 1 shows a circular rod ac-' cording to the invention, as used in connection with a glow lamp and a photocell system.
Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of a rod formed as a polygon.
According to this invention therefore not the whole mass, but only the outside of the rod or polygon of any cross section (for example circular or angular cross section) is coated with the fluorescent material, except the end-face of the so smaller sides. As fluorescent material the usual fluorescent dyestuffs, for instance rodanin, fluorescein, come into question. Furthermore the usual phosphors or their mixtures may be employed, which are excited also by X-ray emissions. One end of the rod is preferably covered with a strongly reflecting layer, for instance with a silver coating, or with a metal layer of good reflecting properties and the like, in order to concentrate the entire fluorescent light to: a single end-face of the rod. The rod must practically in its entire length be in contact with the radiation, which is to be intensified. The rod may also be curved and possess for some purposes a very small diameter of few millimeters only. It is useful to employ rods consisting of masses with high optical refractive power. Needless to say, that the mass the rod consists of must as much as possible be optically homogeneous. Glasses with a high refractive index come especially into question. Also other materials may be used.
The application of the invention is manyfold. It may be used when weak radiations are to be intensified for visual observation in a simple manner, for instance for the detection of ultraviolet rays or X-ray emissions. Furthermore in photometry, when gauging feebly luminous, possibly colored areas. A special application of this invention may be found in the intensification of the light-effect of glow lamps as they serve for instance in sound film technique for the taking of the sound. Such a form of application will be described in the following:
In a glass tube I (see Figure 1) are the elec trodes 2 and 3 of the usual glow lamps the form of which, however, must be especially chosen for the intended use. The cylinder-shaped electrode 2 is during operation on the inside covered with the glow light. Since the electrode 3 also cylinder-shaped is manufactured as net with Wide meshes,-the glow light formed on the inside of the electrode 2 falls first through electrode 3, then through the glass wall of the glow tube onto the surface 5 of the glass rod 4. The surface 5'consists of a fluorescent material which transforms the light coming from glow electrode 2 into light of different color, for instance into red light. By total reflection in the interior of rod 4 the secondary light is conducted for the most part to the end-faces l0 and II of the rod. In the example described here, the end-face II may be coated by a silver mirror, whereas opposite the end-face II] a conversion lens 6 is arranged. By the silver mirror of end-face II the secondary light arriving there is reflected and partly also conducted towards the end-face Ill. The conversion lens 6 illuminates a slit behind which is arranged a photocell 9. Figure 2 shows in cross-section a polygonal rod [4 provided with a similar surface coating l2.
By this arrangement the relatively low lightdensity of the glow lamp is changed by transformation and accumulation within the rod into a. relatively high light-density and this is conducted to a photocell over an optical slit system.
What we claim is:
1. An apparatus for the intensification of weak radiations, especially lightand ultraviolet emissions, comprising a rod, consisting of an optically homogeneous uncolored mass having on its surface with the exception of the end-faces a fluorescent coating excited by said radiation.
2. An apparatus for the intensification of weak radiations, especially lightand-ultraviolet emissions, comprising a polygon of an optically homogeneous uncolored mass having on its surface with the exception of the end-faces a fluorescent coating excited by said radiation.
3. An apparatus according to claim 1 comprising a highly reflecting metal layer on one endface of the rod.
4. An apparatus according to claim 1 in which the mass of the rod has a high refractive index.
5. An apparatus according to claim 1, comprising a highly reflecting metallic silver layer 10 on one end face of the rod.

"Thoughtful & Tender Undoing"
by Mike Stanz
posted Jul 9 2014 5:00AM
There's an epidemic of euphemisms out there. We'll call it
You'll remember that a couple of months ago, actress Gwyneth Paltrow referred to her separation from singer Chris Martin as a "conscious uncoupling." Ever since, it seems like famous splitters have been using some very odd terminology to describe their partings of the ways.
The latest is singer-songwriter Jewel, who last week referred to her split from rodeo star hubby Ty Murray as a "thoughtful and tender undoing of ourselves."
Here's a gift hint in case you're attending a celebrity wedding any time soon: a Thesaurus. Coming up with inventive ways to describe their divorce will get more difficult as we go – so a little help couldn't hurt.

We stayed here prior to going on a cruise. Based on previous travel review I was a bit hesitant to stay here. But we booked it through priceline for $50 so we will go for it. We were cautious about the parking situation based on another's review of a golf ball damaging their car. But we found that they have a very large lot and there are several spaces where a ball will not hit your car. When we arrived we found it very nice, comfortable, friendly and the whole bit. The room was modern, warm, and beds were comfortable. We only stayed one night and then off to the cruise but I was very happy with it and I would stay there again in a heartbeat. In my opinion this hotel deserves higher reviews than some have been giving them credit for.

OPP: Sugar Daddy
by Slacker And Steve
posted Jan 30 2012 4:24PM
Today's OPP comes from Bri:
Yi! I'm in college and broke. I'm in a sorority and some of my sisters have older guys that give them A LOT of money just for going on dates with them and stuff. I'm really thinking about doing it cuz I need the money….I just don't know how to do it. Do I just walk up to him and say "Hey! I'll go out with you if you pay my bills"???? I think some of the sisters met some of there guys online….Will I have to do other stuff to (you know what I mean)???? I will if I have to...I just wanna know. Can you guys have some girls help me out?
Slacker basically went, "gulp." However, he did find a website and he figured we might as well share it since she's not asking should she do it, but how should she go about it. The site is called,
, that provides other options for college students to help pay off student loans if they rather not be waiting on tables. The site is not for prostitution since there is no promise of relations, but the site puts college students in need of money with sugar daddies or mammas and they "sugar date." Slacker thinks it's basically a guy in a high profile job that needs some arm candy, so he's going to take a 19 year old girl and introduce her to the boss. To him, that's not going to go over well… Most of the time, the daters are looking for friendships or fun, but either way they get money out of it.
Sadly, I wish I knew about this when I was in college. I'm not entirely sure if I would have gone through with it, but it would have been a nice option to have. Maybe I wouldn't have all this debt hanging over me.
What advice do you have for Bri?
