text: NASCAR Institutes New Kevin Ward Jr. Rule Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart Sports 15 Aug 2014 post a comment Yellow means caution, not throw caution to the wind. That's the message of a new rule introduced by NASCAR in the wake of the death of Kevin Ward Jr. The new rule states that "if a race car is involved in an on-track incident on or near the racing surface, and is unable to continue to make forward progress, unless extenuating emergency conditions exist with the race car (such as smoke or fire inside the car)," the driver must remain in the car. The rule also tells drivers and crew members to stay away from the race track as pedestrians. After Tony Stewart edged Kevin Ward Jr. into the wall at the Canandaigua Motorsports Park in New York last Saturday night, the young driver left his damaged vehicle and angrily approached Stewart's sprint car, which then hit and killed Ward. The race did not occur under the auspices of NASCAR. Nevertheless, the racing organization seeks to prevent another situation that takes a life and attracts negative attention to the sport.

Love Is Comprimise 1. ConflictingLove Is Comprimise by RagingDragonair
"You big dummy," she muttered, palming her cheek as he cradled her in his lap, contentedly rubbing his nose against her lips, before moving his lips upwards to meet them swiftly.
"I stole a kiss," he mocked huskily, sneaking his lips back to her cheek as he removed her fist, stroking it with his thumb.
Leaf looked away, hiding her slightly pink face. "Yeah...w-well don't steal anymore..."
2. Alexandrian
He rolled over in the sheets, smiling as he wrapped his arms around the body next to him, snuggling up to it.
"Hmm...baby you're much warmer than usual..."
His eyes snapped open. Jasmine usually slept with a lot less clothing on and... her skin certainly wasn't...
His hands stroked the creature, before turning over and rocketing from the covers. Her body was not fuzzy!
And upon closer examination...she certainly was not... yellow?!?!
Volkner ripped the covers straight away from the mattress, shocked to realize that

"Siebold stop whisking so fast or I'll kill you!"
The Elite Four member only laughed bashfully, using her hands to whisk the pancake batter even faster. The honey-haired mother, Serena, only frowned back at her husband, who was sloshing the mix all over her and their daughter.
However, their daughter, Harmony only clapped her hands and giggled, raw pancakes spilled all over her beautiful face and dress.
"Yaaaay!! Breakfast, breakfast!!" The four year old blonde cheered, a wave of pancake mixture sloshing over her as she did so.
2. Sniffing~Conflicting~:iconayaroulane:
"Green, I swear! Control your stupid hormones!"
Leaf blushed madly as he slammed his face into her hair, inhaling so deeply that she could feel the bottom of her lustrous locks enter his nostrils.
"I told you I don't want to do this right now!!"

"You can't fucking blame the him! This guy. This guy is an asshole." Silver pointed towards Orihara Izaya. "I wanna punch his head in."
"Yep. You're alike, alright." Kotone sighed.

"Oui! Serena, I like this... ah, Tamaki!" The professor clapped his hands together.
'Ofcourse.' Serena giggled.

Red handed Green the anime CD.
"What the hell, Red." Green stared blankly at CD, then back at Red. He held it infront of Red's face. "What the fuck is this thing, man?"
"It's the DVD for an anime, obviously." Red said nonchalantly.
"Yeah, okay I got that. But..." Green tapped the DVD's face. "Why are there half naked guys on the cover?"
Red shrugged his shoulders. "Don't you like that kind of thing?"

Updated for 2014! Deuter's most full-featured child carrier, the Kid
Comfort 3 provides a fully adjustable suspension system, a swiveling hipbelt,
extensive padding and German-engineered safety features.
Updated for 2014! A favorite among on-the-go parents, the Deuter Kid
Comfort 2 employs German engineering and tested safety features to ensure an
enjoyable adventure for you and your child.
Updated for 2014! Versatile, lightweight and affordable, the Deuter Kid
Comfort 1 child carrier allows you and your child to safely and comfortably tackle
adventures together.
The Deuter KangaKid quickly transforms from a functional backpack to a child carrier when your young explorer gets too tired to walk. A sleek profile and compact design make the KangaKid ideal when space is limited.
Updated for 2014! Flexible and durable, the Deuter Sun Roof/Rain Cover
mounts quickly and easily to your Deuter child carrier. NOTE: The cover is not
compatible with the Kid Comfort 3, KangaKid or any pre-2014 Deuter models.
Updated for 2014! The KC Deluxe Rain Cover works in tandem with the
Deuter Sun Roof/Rain Cover (sold separately) to equip Deuter child carriers
with complete rain and wind protection.
Flexible and durable, the KangaKid Sun Roof mounts easily to your Deuter KangaKid child carrier. Constructed of mesh and a fine weave thread with a water-resistant coating, the KangaKid Sun Roof protects against glare and sunlight.
Combining the support and weight-distribution principles found on backpacks with the safety features needed to protect your child, these carriers are for children old enough to sit up by themselves.
These carriers combine the most supportive, comfortable suspension systems available with an array of features to provide top-line performance.
Balancing performance, features and price, these carriers provide a step up in support and stability from basic child carriers.
Functional and economically-priced, these carriers are designed to safely and securely carry your child, but do not include all of the higher-end features found on more expensive carriers.
Incorporating lightweight aluminum frames to provide rigid support and stability, these carriers effectively carry heavy loads, including your child, diapers, bottles and other supplies.
Designed to be used as a child carrier, a daypack or a combination of the two, these packs do not offer as much weight-carrying capability as fully-framed carriers, but are more form-fitting and provide better maneuverability.
Sun/rain hoods, stirrups, safety mirrors and more help to enhance the performance of your child carrier.

Dear Friends,
The 2014 season has drawn to a close and it's a great time to reflect on what a dynamic year this has been.
We would like to offer a huge, heartfelt THANK YOU to all our illustrious company members, our bold board, our intrepid partners, our hardy audiences and the believers who have joined the Perchance dream this year.
While the company has celebrated five wonderful seasons, and hosted many incredible artists during that time, this last season was a coming of age of sorts.
This past spring, the board and staff undertook a major rebranding exercise with the generous support of Tom Murphy and Dave Sullivan of Target Marketing, hand-in-hand with Ray Fennelly and his graphic design students at CNA. In early July, we launched Perchance Theatre at Cupids with a brand new look and feel, and a series of hilarious radio ads. Perchance you might have heard them?
In June, rehearsals began with the company and all hands hitting the deck to bring together our first full season since 2012. On July 26, the season opened with Henry V, quickly followed by The Merry Wives of Windsor on July 27. Both shows were met with critical acclaim and audience enjoyment and played through until the end of August.
This year, we also offered the Muses and Minstrel's series which featured Wonderbolt Circus – where fire breathing and clowns took the stage; Calvin Powell and Brian Way's Songs That Travel, bringing classical and modern music and song featuring many performers; and lastly, A Night of Recitations, which featured five local storytellers who wove spells of magic around our audiences with their tales.
Our season would not have been complete without Andy Jones and Mary Lynn Bernard playing the Cupids Legacy Centre with both The Queen of Paradise's Garden and Storytelling with Andy Jones.
The company was involved in several outreach endeavours in and around Cupids, and also had two fundraising events in St. John's: Mixology at the Geo Centre; and "The Last Call," hosted by Allan Hawco and Carolyn Stokes at their home, featuring the cast of Republic of Doyle, musical entertainment by Alan Doyle, Ennis, The Fortunate Ones, Scott Grimes and Krystin Pellerin. Oh, what a night!
It has been an epic season, but it was not without its challenges – the biggest being the weather. We lost an unprecedented six shows due to heavy weather and went ahead in inclement weather for most of August which only had six days without rain! It certainly made us look ahead to 2015 with better weather plans to keep audiences and performers safe and comfortable.
The 2014 season brought back many old friends and supporters to our theatre as well as welcomed new friends and patrons. We are deeply grateful for your passion and support. We look forward to continuing our growth over the winter and spring with a view to next summer.
Please stay tuned for more to come …
Thank you,
Danielle Irvine
Artistic Director
Perchance Theatre at Cupids

The Obama Administration today welcomed the Japanese announcement of USD six billion financial aid to Pakistan and Afghanistan, including $5 billion to the latter.
"We welcome the announcement by the Government of Japan to provide approximately $5 billion over the next five years to Afghanistan and to implement swiftly its April 2009 pledge of $1 billion for economic assistance to Pakistan," White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said.
In a statement issued on the eve of the departure of President Barack Obama for Japan, Mr. Gibbs said the US appreciates all that Japan has done to assist in the stabilisation and reconstruction of Afghanistan and welcomes Japan's renewed commitment to development assistance for this international effort.
"Japan is among the largest bilateral donors in foreign assistance to Pakistan and Afghanistan, reflecting Japan's crucial leadership in the region and around the globe," he said.
"As President Obama prepares to travel to Japan this week, he looks forward to renewing our strong alliance with Japan, and discussing our continued partnership on Afghanistan, Pakistan, and critical bilateral issues," Mr. Gibbs said.

Judy Morris: Feng Shui Expert
in Spirituality
Judy Morris has worked as a Time-space feng shui professional and teacher for over 25 years and has clients throughout the United States, Caribbean, Canada and Europe. She is the first American certified to practice and teach Classical Chinese Feng Shui, and she is the first American designated as a Feng Shui Master through the Feng Shui Research Center founded by Master Joseph Yu.
She came to the feng shui profession from a successful 20+ year career as a management consultant, personal and business productivity coach. "My years as a consultant taught me to appreciate the impact our environments exert on our happiness, health, productivity and relationships," she recalls.
"I searched for a teacher who was grounded in this rich Chinese system. I was especially attracted to Toronto-based Master Yu because of his background is mathematics and physics," she recalls. "He is a scientist who set out to disprove Feng Shui and, in the process, became so convinced of its validity and power that he is recognized today as one of its most respected proponents." Master Yu is one of the top Classical Feng Shui Masters.
For years Judy searched for a Qi Gong master to assist her in having a deeper experience of the energies she works with in Feng Shui. Instead in 2004 she met Dr. Barry A. Morguelan who is one of fewer than 10 who have successfully completed the training to help people connect to the underlying root energy and to teach others how to stay connected and use that connection successfully. Through the ongoing learning and employment of these practices under the expert supervision of Dr. Morguelan, she has been able to surpass the general expectations of her clients and students in the efficacy of the Feng Shui services she provides and teaches.

When you think of Malo, knitwear is probably the first thing that comes to mind. And for good reason: The Italian brand has been making high-quality cashmeres and woolens for more than 30 years. It hired Alessandro Dell'Acqua as design director, and for his just-unveiled Fall collection—his second with the company—he's taken Malo's staple items to new extremes, both technical and aesthetic. Cable knits sport uneven zigzag patterns, while marled wool cardigans are woven with up to eight colors. There are spray-paint effects and knit tartans, too, not to mention salmon-colored cords and cashmere sweatpants. It's clear that Dell'Acqua is playing to a younger audience, though there's still enough of the old Malo—think piped-knit blazers—to please its original demographic.

Richard Rogers' ambitious proposals to transform a key area around Cambridge Railway Station ( Rogers takes on huge Cambridge project) have been heavily criticised by CABE's design review panel.The design watchdog said it was unable to support the £725 million regeneration scheme because of concerns about the height of the project and the possible overdevelopment of the site. Drawn up for the Ashwell Property Group, the long-awaited scheme in south-east Cambridge is expected to deliver 1,000 new homes as well as a mass of office and retail space. However, CABE has queried key elements of the initial plans, branding proposals for 10-storey office blocks 'too monumental' and condemning the location of the affordable housing units. A report from the design review panel states: 'We are not convinced that the right building type has been chosen to provide high density at an appropriate scale. 'While we accept the premise that high-density development is desirable at major transport hubs, we consider that the quantum, scale and massing of the development is too great for the character of the area.' The report continues: 'We are particularly concerned about the height of the proposed buildings opposite the station and feel the massing strategy of stepping up towards the station is not successful.' It was not all bad news for Rogers. CABE admitted the scheme should be applauded for its approach to landscape design and its urban structure. A spokesman for Richard Rogers said: 'We welcome CABE's commendation of our scheme for Cambridge, in particular the '...inherent strengths in its urban structure, landscape design and access strategy...' 'We are confident that we can achieve a scheme which reflects both the local authority's vision for Cambridge and Ashwell's own aspirations as a developer to transform an area which is clearly in need of significant regeneration. by Richard Waite

DEFINITION of 'Retail Sales'
An aggregated measure of the sales of retail goods over a stated time period, typically based on a data sampling that is extrapolated to model an entire country. In the U.S., the retail sales report is a monthly economic indicator compiled and released by the Census Bureau and the Department of Commerce. The report covers the previous month, and is released about two weeks after the month-end. Comparisons are made against historical data; year-over-year comparisons are the most-reported metric because they account for the seasonality of consumer-based retail.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Retail Sales'
The retail sales report captures in-store sales as well as catalog and other out-of-store sales. The report also breaks down sales figures into groups such as food and beverages, clothing, and autos. The results are often presented two ways: with and without auto sales being counted, because their high sticker price can add extra volatility to the data.
Retail sales figures are vital to stock investors as a whole, and especially to those who invest in retail companies directly. They are also are a big component of total gross domestic product (GDP) in the United States, so any extended drop-offs in retail spending can trigger a recession by lowering tax receipts and forcing companies to reduce head counts.
As far as broad economic indicators go, the retail sales report is one of the most timely, providing data that is only a few weeks old. Individual retail companies often give their own sales figures around the same time per month, and their stocks can be very volatile around this time as investors process the data.

Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe
Finished : Bangladesh won by 124 runs
( 50 overs )
( 39.5 overs )
Fall of wickets - Bangladesh 1 INN
Masakadza to Anamul Haque 121/1
Masakadza to Anamul Haque,1 run, OUT,Oh my, that's unfortunate. They've gone to the third umpire, and it looks out. It's a slower ball on leg stump, and he works it away towards deep midwicket. They run a second and it would have been easily completed had Tamim not dropped his bat just short of reaching the bowler's end. He jammed it into the ground, looking to ground it, and it dropped out of his grasp. He had to jump into the crease, and his feet were in the air when Masakadza picked up Taylor's throw from the deep and disturbed the bails. For good measure, he threw to the other end as well, but obviously the ball became dead once Tamim was out at the bowler's end
Masakadza to Mominul Haque 160/2
Masakadza to Mominul Haque,OUT,got him! Mominul hasn't been middling them today and he went after this slower ball outside off, hit it too early, with an angled bat, and scooped a simple catch to mid-off
Kamungozi to Anamul Haque 167/3
Kamungozi to Anamul Haque,OUT,he won't get his hundred, and a pretty ordinary ball has got him out. It's short, angling towards leg stump, and he pulls it, uppishly, straight into the hands of deep midwicket
Panyangara to Shakib Al Hasan 239/4
Panyangara to Shakib Al Hasan,OUT,bangs it in short, and Shakib goes for the hook. Can't control it, and he top-edges high in the air down to long leg, where Chigumbura takes a good tumbling catch
Panyangara to Mushfiqur Rahim 244/5
Panyangara to Mushfiqur Rahim,OUT,gone! What an over from Panyangara. Mushy went for the big drive through the off side with an angled bat, it was very full and it was angling in, and it took his inside edge onto the stumps
Madziva to Sabbir Rahman 290/6
Madziva to Sabbir Rahman,OUT,short ball, it was the slower one, and he looks to pull and ends up hitting it uppishly into the hands of long-on. The fielder is right on the edge of the rope and he's moving back with the momentum of the catch but manages to stop himself just in time, from going over the rope
Fall of wickets - Zimbabwe 1 INN
Mashrafe Mortaza to Sibanda 9/1
Mashrafe Mortaza to Sibanda,OUT,got him. Comes down the track and goes for the pull. It gets a little too big on him, and he ended up scooping it high in the air, easy catch for the man running in from long leg
Mashrafe Mortaza to Masakadza 22/2
Mashrafe Mortaza to Masakadza,OUT,given! There was a loud shout for a catch down the leg side after Masakadza looked to glance one off his hips, and Masakadza is absolutely livid. He slaps the air with his bat a couple of times as he walks off, and one of the Zimbabwe substitutes came on and put an arm around his shoulder to lead him off the field. You could see why he was disappointed, he was nowhere near making contact with that.
Rubel Hossain to Maruma 39/3
Rubel Hossain to Maruma,OUT,gone! It was shortish, goes for the pull, and doesn't get hold of it at all. Spoons it in the air, straight into the hands of Mashrafe at mid-on
Arafat Sunny to Mire 80/4
Arafat Sunny to Mire,OUT,got him! The previous balls built up in the batsman's head and he rushed down the track and slogged wildly. It sneaked under his bat, went with the angle, and Mushfiqur was a little slow to complete the stumping, but the batsman was so far down the pitch that it didn't matter
Shakib Al Hasan to Taylor 82/5
Shakib Al Hasan to Taylor,OUT,gone! That was the arm ball again, and Taylor plonked his front pad right in front and played down the wrong line as he looked to defend. It looked plumb and the umpire had no hesitation
Mahmudullah to Chakabva 119/6
Mahmudullah to Chakabva,OUT,that was always on the cards. Chakabva had been making room repeatedly and cutting balls off his stumps. This one went with the arm, went across him, and crashed into off stump. Kept a touch low too.
Rubel Hossain to Moor 126/7
Rubel Hossain to Moor,OUT,big lbw appeal, given. He came half-forward to work it into the on side, and it was fasy and angling in. Beat the inside edge and hit him on the back pad, right in front
Arafat Sunny to Madziva 153/8
Arafat Sunny to Madziva,OUT,got him. That was full on middle and leg, and he cleared his front leg and smashed it straight to short midwicket, who falls to his left to take a good catch
Arafat Sunny to Panyangara 153/9
Arafat Sunny to Panyangara,OUT,beauty. That was looped up outside off and he came forward, playing for the turn, and it went with the arm, through the gate, and crashed into his off stump
Arafat Sunny to Kamungozi 173/10
Arafat Sunny to Kamungozi,OUT,and that is that. It's a little fuller, the arm ball again, sliding towards off stump. He clears his front leg and goes for the big slog sweep and plays all around the ball, which crashes into his stumps

C'mon, we all want that 15 minutes of fame. Well, maybe we want it for a little longer than that, more like eight to ten hours of prime time on a reality-television show. And if you're wise enough to move here from the peasant-filled snowy lands of the north, you´re already ahead of the pack in preparing mentally and physically for the little screen. Welcome to our reality. First, there´s the weather. The summers are Amazon-hot, and the midday steam can stifle you like an anaconda wrapped around your chest. Think some puny tropical island that Survivor throws your way is any worse? Second, there are plenty of bugs and crawly things. Fear Factor routinely subjects its contestants to spiders, beetles, and other slithery creatures. A true South Floridian laughs at this sitcom. We encounter more hexapods, arachnids, and arthropods making breakfast and showering in the morning than Fear Factor competitors see in three seasons. Third: The Great Race? Interstate 95. ´Nuff said. And finally, the most burgeoning category in reality TV, coupling up, which can be seen on the likes of The Bachelor and Married by America. Living in an area that virtually invented spring break, we have the beachfront know-how and bars to hook up quickly, disingenuously, and deviously.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I'm working on a project about design by committee / consensus and I really need some help with it. Essentially the idea is to make a book with all the decisions about its design made within this forum. The aesthetics of the book - it's size, format, layout, typeface etc will all decided by the consensus in here.
Firstly, what do people think about the size of the book should be? And in terms of the title, I have two starting points - 'A Camel is a Horse Designed by Committee' and 'Too Many Cooks'.
I'd really appreciate any comments and suggestions on this project.
I don't really like the swash on the A in 'How We Cooked A Camel'.
What is the translation of the Japanese text?
"Cook A Camel"
is missing
> Also I got a random camel image off Google to use for the cover.
> This is perfectly legal.
Actually I doubt if this is a "fair use" situation, even if you're a student, since you are not discussing the photographer's work but instead are simply using his copyrighted image for your own, unrelated purposes.
This isn't intended as a criticism, it's just a comment, as I know this is just a hypothetical project.
@JamesM: "> Also I got a random camel image off Google to use for the cover.
> This is perfectly legal."
I think you may have missed the satire in that, James. Since this whole project is just a spoof and intended as a humorous display of all the things that go wrong with "Design by committee", I think his comment on "perfectly legal" is right on target with the rest of the thread.
> I think you may have missed the satire in that, James.
Okay, sorry if I misunderstood.
http://www. is missing
http://www. is superflous. Type that url without the prefix, it works.
I don't know, Brian, the Suits always get nervous when we leave out the www. Can't we at least just keep it until the VP of Customer Outeach retires?
You could try to ease them into it by dropping the protocol part and begin at www. Plus, nothing says "web address" like the www.
Well, I suppose I could talk him into dropping the http// part and tell him it is more chic?
Maybe..... But anything with a .com in it definitely says "I am a website"
We seriously need to blind emboss the title in braille.
Then we also need to mace a photograph of the embossed braille and print it on the cover as well, so the sighted people will be able to see it ;-)
We seriously need to blind emboss the title in braille.
Is that in the budget?
Dude! The old guy who like, approves the budget is like, blind, like, y'know?
Yeah, it might be enough just to make sure the companion website is accessible for vision-impaired visitors.
There is a companion website, right?
Oh. I think this is the companion website....
There was supposed to be but some dude named Craig never finished it! He, like, went to play some weird thing with stones on ice and brooms and ßhit--wtf is that about?
Think typophile could pass as vision-impaired accessible?
"http://www. is superflous. Type that url without the prefix, it works."
I suspect the committee does not agree with this comment. If people don't type in http:// they might end up on some government network accidentally, and then we'll be faced with wikileaks IV.
I'm not even sure the audience will know they should use a computer with the URL, or that the audience will even know what computer is.
Difficulties abound.
You can't end up on a government network by not typing the prefix into the address bar in a browser.
I'm not even sure the audience will know they should use a computer with the URL, or that the audience will even know what computer is.
Hmm... Who is our audience...? We'll have to find one that fits the description of not knowing to use a computer with the URL, or that doesn't know what a computer is.
Maybe it would be best to add some instructions in simple English so that any layman or infant can understand. Probably should use an asterisk.
But they might mistake it as part of the URL. So we'll have to set it apart somehow.
Well, I consulted with the committee and we're all quite sure if you don't type http:// there's at least a small risk of ending up on a terror watch list, or at least having a hard time renewing your passport.
What do you make of that? Is it alarmist?
Even on your profile page you use http:// for the sake of safe navigation.
How about a compromise? We can have a Little Paperclip Guy icon you can click and it will automatically walk you through "knowing how to use the computer" with both Kanji and Latin script!
Hmm... Who is our audience...?
The committee is the committee's audience is the committee.
Riccardo, we will have to appoint a committee to define the Committee's audience but they should be made up of the Committee's audience. We will need a focus group to do that. Looks like we will have to hire my "niece" Bambi to arrange that. ;-J
Even on your profile page you use http:// for the sake of safe navigation.
Aha. That is only necessary on-line. Once printed it is entirely superfluous. However I found the solution:
I wonder if I'm the only one who tried to use the scroll bars.
I didn't.
So is this now an eBook?
Tricky to add UV coating to an eBook. I'd like it to be a printed book. Also a waterproof printed book can be read in a bath, but eBooks are not waterproof (or is there a waterproof reader?).
The solution to the URL ambiguity is obvious – you simply need to add clip art of a computer next to it, so that it shows that the URL is meant to be put into a computer. Maybe also prefix it with "URL:" to make sure people know it is a uniform resource locator, though. Maybe also an inviting line like "Find us on the web..." Yes, that'll definitely help this.
Oh, and I know I'm chiming in a bit late, but for my 2 cents on the text design: make sure to use historical ligatures, because the little curve joining "st" and "ct" really, really helps readability for modern eyes. And all numbers should be done with lc, italic roman numerals for that added air of class. When used with the full caps for the headings (we're using full caps for the headings, right?), the font size of the numerals should be doubled to make the lowercase letters rise to the cap height.
Hmm, I think you're right on the ligatures.
Maybe for the browser, so that we can appeal to a more diverse audience, we should use the Mosaic web browser.
No! No!, It must be AOL's browser.
Alas, you can only visit website's in AOL's network with that.
Yes, but that is what the CFO's wife always uses!
I've got a solution: we put the AOL browser on the front cover to show how friendly it is (and to keep the CFO's wife happy), then when you open it, the first thing you see is the cover is reproduced in IE6 (because that's the only other browser worth using, right?) and a big headline that says "ALSO COMPATIBLE WITH..." Full caps, bold, italic, underlined to make sure the message gets across.
Maybe we need to use AOL's browser for the cover, and then sport the cover reproduced in w3m on Debian Potato inside. Via xterm. :) Preferably using amiwm.
I think I can buy into that.
Alrighty! Unfortunately I don't have Debian Potato. However Amiwm on the latest Debian SID should look the same, considering it has hardly changed in over a decade.

Scout thinks they will borrow from Panthers but no one knows Brad Biggs
It's a little difficult to get a handle on exactly what the Washington Redskins are going to do offensively this season.
They spent most of the first quarter last Saturday at Chicago working out of a three tight-end package, not exactly what you probably envisioned for Robert Griffin III as he transitions into the NFL.
Griffin is in a hyped matchup this weekend as the Redskins will host the Indianapolis Colts and Andrew Luck this Saturday at FedEx Field. It's No. 1 in the draft vs. No. 2. Luck, the top pick, has been smoother in preseason to this point. While Griffin was solid in his debut at Buffalo, he looked out of sorts playing against the Bears. Overall, he has completed 9 of 14 passes for 119 yards, one score and he has fumbled twice.
"I definitely look forward to playing the guy throughout my career," Griffin said this week, according to John Keim of CBS Sports. "I think it will be exciting matchups every time we face each other."
One veteran scout said he believes when the regular season rolls around, the Redskins will look much like the Carolina Panthers did a year ago with Cam Newton. He predicts Washington will spread out defenses, rely heavily on shotgun formations and use a zone running scheme that will include zone reads for Griffin.
The question the scout has is can Griffin be effective? His height was questioned going into the NFL Scouting Combine where he measured 6-2. That is fine but Griffin often delivers the ball with a three-quarter angle that makes him shorter when he releases the football. Newton is 6-5.
"Griffin just looks small to me," the scout said, "And I don't know if he's going to be able to see the field the way he needs to behind the linemen. We'll see. I'm curious to see what they do with him."
Just like everyone else.

Recent police action in Missouri is an affront to journalists and the First Amendment.
Reporters for The Washington Post and The Huffington Post, who were covering the shooting of a teenager and subsequent civil unrest and riots in Ferguson, Missouri, were arrested and otherwise harassed by local police. This "side spectacle" shows that during tragedies and major news events, like riots, the press is at risk.
Published accounts by the reporters do not indicate that they were obstructing or otherwise hindering police investigations or police efforts to suppress the riot. These were legitimate members of the institutional press, not advocates or participants in any political movement. They were journalists. Though the reporters were released without charges, this type of incident nevertheless poses a significant threat to journalists who are on the front lines, whether covering riots here in the United States or wars abroad.
In a country with strong protections under the First Amendment, reporters should not be harassed, no matter how emotionally-charged events may be. The facts about what happened in Ferguson are still being sorted out, and the investigation will likely require intervention by state and federal authorities. But this is a story of national import and the riots are a major component of the story, and should be covered. The press will assume a vital and independent role in telling this story, keeping the public informed and keeping all sides accountable. The press has to be allowed to do its job.
After weighing in on the tragedy and the riots, President Obama concluded, "Here in the United States of America, police should not be bullying or arresting journalists who are just trying to do their jobs and report to the American people on what they see on the ground."
Let's hope law enforcement takes a look at the First Amendment next time.
Two political action groups challenging an Ohio law that imposes criminal sanctions for false political campaign statements have legal standing to challenge that law, the United States Supreme Court ruled Monday.
Writing for the court, Justice Clarence Thomas believed that the groups had sufficient fear of injury to merit the declaratory action filed in federal court in Ohio in Susan B. Anthony List v. Driehaus. The petitioners had gone to federal court to determine whether the law was valid under the First Amendment to the Constitution.
The law allows "any person" to bring a complaint before the Ohio Elections Commission regarding "a false statement concerning the voting record of a candidate or public official." In short, false statements made during a political campaign could expose a speaker to criminal liability. Though a first offense was a misdemeanor, it was punishable with up to six months in jail and up to a $5,000 fine. A second conviction was a fourth-degree felony.
Even if the speech might be false, it was a steep price to pay for political speech, largely considered the most hallowed – and protected – form of speech.
Though eschewing much of the law's First Amendment and broad free speech implications, the court remanded the case to the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. So, it will likely not be the last word on the case.
The opinion focuses almost entirely on the constitutional principles of ripeness and standing (whether the petitioners had valid reasons to bring the case). The court analyzed whether the petitioners had real or "imaginary" fear of punishment while exercising their First Amendment rights. Further, the court noted that others intent on expressing opinions on political matters could also face sanctions. The court ruled that the "petitioners have alleged a credible threat of enforcement."
Because the law targeted and in many ways punished political speech, the court believed there was a viable constitutional interest.
"The Ohio false statement law sweeps broadly and covers the subject matter of petitioners' intended speech," the court wrote.
The potential for future application of the Ohio law, coupled with the nature of the law itself, which could allow "a universe of potential complainants," raised questions. The Court noted that the Ohio Elections Commission, which administered the law, handles between 20 and 80 false statement complaints every year.
The United States Supreme Court will hear arguments Tuesday in two cases that have serious First Amendment implications: one with implications as old as time and politics and the other as modern as the technology involved. First Amendment cases do not dominate the 80 or so cases the court takes every year. Two being argued on the same day seems even rarer.
The first case on the Tuesday argument docket is Susan B. Anthony List v. Driehaus, which challenges an Ohio law that criminalizes false statements about a political candidate or ballot initiative. This controversy goes all the way back to the 2010 congressional re-election campaign of a U.S. Representative from Ohio who had been targeted by conservative political groups, particularly an anti-abortion group that had published statements that the Congressman, Steven Driehaus had voted for tax-payer-funded abortions through his vote for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
Claiming this was a false statement, Driehaus filed a complaint with the Ohio Elections Commission, invoking the controversial law. This led to a hearing and ultimately a constitutional challenge by SBA.
The law, which includes actual criminal sanctions of up to six months in jail and up to $5,000 in fines also includes procedural mechanisms that can also create the threat of sanctions.
SBA argues this restraint and threat of restraint on speech is blatant violation of the First Amendment. The lower court, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, did not entirely clear up the messy procedural conflicts.
Surprisingly, as the SBA brief to the Supreme Court points out, Ohio is not alone with these types of false political speech statutes – nearly one-third of the states have them. SBA's brief to the court makes several compelling arguments for protecting even false speech in political campaigns, equating this to a "chilling effect" on political speech. SBA also questions whether a law like this even has any efficacy. Most succinctly, SBA wrote: "Speakers should not have to risk criminal penalties to participate in the marketplace of ideas, particularly the political marketplace."
For its part, the Ohio Attorney General Michael Dewine, makes mostly procedural arguments invoking constitutional doctrines of ripeness, arguing SBA did not incur "sufficient" injury and that its arguments on threat of sanction are too speculative to merit constitutional review.
Meanwhile, more than two dozen organizations lined up to support SBA with amici briefs, perhaps most notably the political humorist P.J. O'Rourke, whose brief's question presented dripped with satire: "Can a state government criminalize political statements that are less than 100 percent truthful?"
As old as political mudslinging might be, the second case on Tuesday's docket is as modern as they come. ABC v. Aereo pits the broadcast television networks against a start-up website which delivers the same content available in a broadcast region, except through an online subscription service.
At issue here is whether the U.S. Copyright Act's definitions of retransmission of signals can be applied to the service which it compares to a personal DVR for broadcast signals that are collected via individualized mini-antennas. The broadcast programs are then available for playback by the subscriber.
Aereo's briefs and arguments at the lower courts say this is no different than the way consumers in the late 1970s through the 1980s used VCRs to record shows for playback later. It is also akin to modern DVRs, which are used by 45 percent of American households. In essence, Aereo says that the litigation amounts to a war on cloud technology.
The broadcasters, on the other hand, believe that this subscription service robs them of revenues because Aereo is unfairly and without license retransmitting its programming without compensating them. A broadcasting executive at a recent communications law conference at Syracuse University College of Law said this was the biggest copyright case of the century and could redefine broadcasting.
"The broadcast television industry has invested billions of dollars producing, assembling, and distributing entertainment and news programming in reliance on this legal system. Yet Aereo has built an entire business around exploiting that copyrighted content – and has done so without obtaining permission from copyright owners or paying anyone a penny," ABC argued in its brief.
The arguments are Tuesday morning and the Court will rule by the end of June. Stay tuned.
This is Sunshine Week, a week dedicated to shining light on public information and the workings of government. An homage to Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis's famous statement that sunshine is the best disinfectant, press rights groups, open government advocates and regular citizens have been marking this week since 2005.
Initially, the mid-March celebration, if you want to call it that, was promoted on March 16, the birthday of James Madison, the principal writer of the First Amendment and an advocate for a free, vibrant press.
The American Society of News Editors (ASNE) founded Sunshine Week, but it has expanded with support from news organizations and a host of other press rights groups including the Society of Professional Journalists, the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. The Tully Center for Free Speech supports Sunshine Week.
ASNE also prepared a Sunshine Week Open Government Proclamation, which urges government entities to be more open with regard to access to public records.
In part, the proclamation states: "Whereas, James Madison, the father of our federal constitution, wrote that 'consent of the governed' requires that the people be able to 'arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives'"
The proclamation also speaks to the trust between citizens and the government, especially when it comes to public records and transparency of information.
Freedom of information, as some of the Sunshine Week literature notes, is a non-partisan issue. It also spans government entities — villages, town councils, city councils, school boards, state universities, county, state and federal agencies and other government agencies. The important work of government requires these agencies maintain records and allow the public to review them. The public has a right to know and even a duty to ask.
But that does not mean the information is also readily available all the time. Every state and the federal government has freedom or information laws, which require the government to release information upon request. Of course, there are legitimate exemptions to these laws, defined in the statutes. Sometimes officials interpret the exemptions too broadly and sometimes they simply ignore the law.
This can be a problem. The National Freedom of Information Coalition and the Better Government Association in 2007 reported that 38 of the 50 states received an F for failing to adequately comply with public records requests under the respective state laws. Only two states – Nebraska and New Jersey – even earned a B.
But another report, 2010's Access Across America, sponsored by the Society of Professional Journalists, found while law enforcement agencies appear to be tighter and tighter with public information, journalists across the country are not asking enough government agencies for records.
All over the country, journalists and press advocacy groups are marking the week with discussions on public issues, speeches and exercises to challenge government agencies to be more open. Perhaps the best way to celebrate Sunshine Week is to simply think about public information, and if you happen to be a journalist, to seek and use public information for your stories.
With many eyes on Sochi Winter Olympics, Russia continues a free speech crackdown.
The Olympics starting today in Sochi will be covered by 2 800 journalists. The number includes a few dozens of Russian sports reporters from RIA Novosti, whose future after the Olympics is very uncertain.
The biggest Russian news agency RIA Novosti got "liquefied" in December 2013 with President Putin's decree. The decree was published on the Kremlin's website and shocked employees, management and even CEO of the agency. The decree states that the purpose of closing is "economy" and reformatting. Experts say this is yet another step in the crackdown on civil rights in the country, and the agency is "punished" for its liberal views. The agency was given three months to be reorganized. Therefore, right after the Olympics, journalist will face some dramatic changes.
"This step is another one in the series of changes of Russian news landscape that, it seems, points out at the tightening of the governmental control in the media sector that is quite regulated already," it was said on the English version of the Ria Novosti website that normally copies the Russian version. This time, the Russian version, however, didn't have the same message. Shortly after the message was quoted by other media, it was taken down from the website.
According to Putin's decree, Ria Novosti is to be transformed into the new agency called Russia Today that would provide news about Russia for foreign audience. "Restoring a fair attitude to Russia as an important country in the world with good intentions – it is the mission of the new structure," says the appointed CEO of the new agency Dmitriy Kisilev. In other words, the purpose of Russia Today is propaganda or, as it called in the 21st century, news subsidies.
In Russia, Kiselev's name rings the bell: his pro-government statements have earned him a reputation as a "Kremlin soapbox." Instead of going on and on about his loyalty to the government, it is better to quote him once to get the idea.
"I believe that gays should not only be fined for promoting homosexuality among young adults. They need to be banned from donation of blood, sperm, and their hearts, in the case of a car accident, should be buried or burned as unfit to continue someone's life," Kiselev commented on the Russian notorious anti-gay propaganda law.
It is still unclear how the agency will be reorganized and what is to happen to its assets: developed infrastructure, subscriptions from hundreds of businesses and media outlets, network of regional and foreign correspondents, 40 websites on 22 foreign languages. The agency is given three months for reorganization.
It is also unknown what is to happen with thousands of agency's employees. Even the CEO Svetlana Mironyuk didn't see it coming, according to her own words.
"Sorry those whom I couldn't protect. I am really hurt," said Mironyuk tearfully the day the decree was published.
Employees expressed their same level of frustration on social media. However, after two days Mironyuk changed her position and insisted that the employees should not comment on the closure, even on social media.
On the agency's corporate portal, she posted a statement saying that everyone should comply with the president's decisions.
"You work in the federal media and Ria Novosti's main stakeholder is Russian Federation. We are required to comply with federal leaders' decrees. I also ask you not to react to provocative calls on social media for so called 'support actions' for Ria Novosti employees. Those, who organize them, are avid provocateurs and are interested in destabilizing the work of the agency," said (ex)-CEO in the statement.
Some employees used social media to post notes of help to find a new job. "They ask us to stay and work for the new company, but I would never stay. It will be hard to go from liberal to pro-government in one day. Don't want to get this propaganda watermark on my forehead for the rest of the career," says the agency's editor who asked to be anonymous.
Ria Novosti is appointed to be the national Olympic Games host-agency. "The country will see the Games with Ria Novosti's eyes", said the website banner long time before the opening ceremony. Right after the Games, in March 2014 these eyes will be shut.
Another "celebrity" has put his foot in his mouth and is being punished for saying something that some people find offensive. Phil Robertson, one of the guys from the "Duck Dynasty" show, made some homophobic comments in an interview and it has totally blown up.
Just to spread the wealth, he followed it up with some racist comments, too.
The A&E television network suspended him but the show will most likely go on. Now everyone from activists to Sarah Palin are chiming in. There have been social media protests and petitions both denouncing and supporting him.
Admittedly, I have never seen "Duck Dynasty" and I do not plan to. As far as I can tell, from my tangential absorption of pop culture, it's a show about guys in flannel who grow long beards and go hunting. Maybe this is part of our problem.
The "Duck Dynasty" controversy raises two important questions: 1) should we be surprised that this guy harbors offensive beliefs? and 2) why do we care what he thinks in the first place?
The controversy also provides an important example of how we as a society deal with speech that offends. And it's another lesson in the beauty of independent media and the hazards of our pop culture-driven society.
If we want to play the blame game, there is plenty of blame to go around, too. In our zeal to find entertainment (and in television executives' desire to produce cheap entertainment) we catapult people with no real talent into prominent players in society. The list of reality television stars who speak solely to shock or offend is as long as the list of reality television shows.
This is not to say that bona fide entertainers are immune from foot-in-mouth disease. From actors (recently Alec Baldwin) to athletes to politicians, the fastest way to the expressway of fame and riches seems to be saying outrageous or offensive things.
This formula can also backfire. Now that the "Duck Dynasty" guy is exposed for what he really is, the debate has begun. The counter attack is on, and the content-starved 24-hour news behemoths and talk shows which thrust this guy into the spotlight are now filling time criticizing his offensive speech. There is almost a self-righteous indignation among television news reporters telling the world of his offensive and politically-incorrect beliefs. Yet, recently the networks were tripping over themselves to get the "Duck Dynasty" guys on their own shows.
In the long-run, this controversy does not rank up there with great debates about important public policy issues. It is an easy story to tell with colorful characters.
One of the great things about our independent media is its ability to decide what is news or entertainment. Even though the free market often drives this, we are also engaged in the marketplace of ideas.
As the great Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes famously wrote, the best test of truth is its power to compete in the marketplace of ideas. He added that society confronts "imperfect knowledge" every day.
There seems to be more and more "imperfect knowledge" entering the marketplace every minute. Some of us participate in the debate and some of us watch on the sidelines. And then someone else does something outrageous and we all forget and move onto the next controversy.

Foreign Affairs Uses Drupal to Dramatically Streamline Publishing Workflow and Integrate Their Digital Edition
Foreign Affairs, published by the Council on Foreign Relations, has been a leader on American foreign policy and global affairs since 1922. They have grown into a multi-platform media organization with properties that include a print magazine, website, mobile site, two digital editions built with Adobe DPS, social media feeds, events and more. Its contributors drive the conversation about the most crucial issues in the world today and are able to reach readers wherever they want to consume content.
While delivering a multi-platform strategy is essential in publishing today, developing a single, unified workflow that enables seamless publishing to all of these platforms—including the iPad– is not always easy. Foreign Affairs set its sights on this goal and partnered with DPCI, an interactive technology agency with deep roots in publishing and extensive Adobe DPS expertise, to tackle the job. Together they delivered a game-changing workflow that eliminated countless hours of tedious work while delivering a consistent brand experience across properties and improving speed to market.
At the heart of this new workflow is Drupal, Foreign Affairs' existing content management system. Drupal was established as the single source of content and the engine that would deliver the content wherever it needed to go, including website, EPUBs and most importantly, their iPad Extra digital edition. Historically, digital editions have been viewed as a barrier to creating a unified publishing system. However, working with DPCI, Foreign Affairs was able to integrate their iPad Extra, a bi-monthly digital edition that is a collection of web-original articles–and a complement to their monthly issue–into this workflow.
DPCI implemented DPSBridge, a Drupal 7.x module that enables content delivery to a digital edition straight from the source content in Drupal, without any interaction with Adobe InDesign. The new process eliminated the need for Foreign Affairs staff to copy and paste content from Drupal into InDesign to create the digital only iPad Extra issues. Eliminating this step was a huge benefit because it was a cumbersome process that took staffers significant time to complete.
From Lynda Hammes, Publisher, Foreign Affairs at the Council on Foreign Relations:
"Working with DPCI to simplify our production workflow has not only saved our editors countless hours of work, it has been a critical step in future-proofing the magazine's content formats for new digital products."
Be sure to read the full case study for a detailed overview of how Foreign Affairs has connected InDesign with Drupal and then Drupal with Adobe DPS, EPUB, and PDF, to simplify the process by which content is prepared for delivery to multiple formats.

Bates Creative Partners with Corcoran College of Art + Design to Bring Its Campus Experience to Life for Prospective Students
Guest post by Debbie Bates-Schrott, President, Bates Creative
There's no question that higher education institutions are challenged with finding innovative ways to attract new students. The Corcoran College of Art + Design wanted to reach new prospects on a global level and was also looking for an innovative way to communicate with the emerging art community.
The first app The Corcoran set out to deploy was an interactive version of its 2013 Viewbook. In higher education, viewbooks are often the centerpiece of recruitment materials and The Corcoran wanted to offer potential new students an engaging way to explore their content that would stand out from competing schools.
The Corcoran asked us to work with them to bring a strategic approach to designing a tablet app that would help build and strengthen the school's relationship with prospective students. Using DPS, we transformed the Corcoran's printed 2013 Viewbook into an interactive app experience that brings to life the real-world stories of the Corcoran community.
The Viewbook App that we created enables the school to reach a broader audience internationally and reduce print and distribution costs. It brings the campus culture of the Corcoran to life for prospective students, the next best thing to actually being there.
Beautiful and rich interactivity in the app includes 360-degree views, videos, slideshows, hyperlinks to apply to the College and much more, enabling prospective new students to see themselves as a part of the Corcoran community, in the classrooms and with their work hanging on the Gallery walls.
