Iowa State hasn't won a B12 tournament game since 2005 when Rashon Clark help ISU beat Baylor by 20 in the first round.
Iowa State hadn't been higher then an 8 seed since 2005. (snapped)
Last time ISU won 2 games in the Big 12 Tournament was 2000 when Fizer and Tinsley helped ISU win the B12 title.
Jake Anderson set the senior record for points in a game last year. Marcus Fizer has the junior record with 38 vs. Baylor in 2000.
Iowa State is 0-1 all-time vs. Texas in Big 12 Tournament games. ISU is also 0-2 vs. Missouri all-time.
ONLY the number 1,2,and 3 seeds have ever won the Big 12 Tournament.
7 number 1 seeds, 3 number 2 seeds, and 5 number 3 seeds.
ISU has only had 3 people selected all tournament team: Marcus Fizer, Jamaal TInsley, and Stevie Johnson.

text: Iran Rejects US Peace Conditions for Syria Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 10 Oct 2013 post a comment Iran has rejected U.S. preconditions for "taking part in a long delayed peace conference on Syria." This means Iran is not backing a U.S. call "for a transitional government in Damascus." According to the Jerusalem Post, on October 7 the U.S. State Department said it would be "more open" to Iran taking part in a conference seeking an end to war in Syria if Iran "would support a 2012 statement calling for a transitional government in Syria." This statement arose from an agreement calling for "a transitional government to be chosen by the Damascus government" with the consent of the Syrian opposition. On October 9, Iran rejected these conditions: "If our participation is in the interest of achieving a solution, it will be unacceptable to set conditions for inviting the Islamic Republican of Iran and we accept no conditions."

ARIES (March 21-April 19):
"WELCOME HOME!" That's the cheery salutation the festively clad greeters blessed me with as I entered the gates of the Burning Man festival last August. In one sense it was an ironic statement: I would spend a mere week in a temporary community erected in an inhospitable desert environment. But it was also profoundly appropriate. Surrounded by smart weirdos who shared my values, stimulated by endlessly fascinating art and music, I felt I had finally found my power spot on planet Earth. Please visualize your own personal version of this homecoming, Aries. What conditions would render you thrillingly relaxed and gracefully aligned? This is the year to create them.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20):
The persimmon tree outside my door has shed all its leaves, but a riot of bright orange fruits hangs starkly from its gray-brown branches. Down the street, the pomegranate tree's withered leaves lie in heaps on the ground, but its dark red globes also remain. I love the way these two rebels defy winter's frigid dormancy, beaming their radiant sweetness through the sun's wan light. They remind me of you, Taurus, of your ripe and fertile beauty blooming amidst the world's fallowness. Be extra buoyant as you share all that good stuff with your fellow creatures in the coming weeks. The favors will be returned in kind in February and March.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20):
In her San Francisco Chronicle column "The In Crowd," Leah Garchik reported on gay actor Ian McKellen's ongoing efforts to purge an ugly pathology from the world's bestselling holy book. Whenever he checks into a hotel that provides a Gideon Bible, he rips out and throws away the part of Leviticus that reads, "If a man lie with mankind as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they should be put to death." According to my reading of the astrological omens, Gemini, you should be inspired by McKellen's purification campaign in the coming months. Choose a political or moral issue that rouses your wisest passion. Then fight for it with relentless ingenuity.

CANCER (June 21-July 22):
Plants raised in a greenhouse grow faster and are more lush. They can flourish all year round. Cows fed synthetic hormones are fatter and produce more milk. They can be induced to go into heat at times they wouldn't normally do so. But the greenhouse plants are healthy and good for the people who enjoy them, while the hormone-augmented cows often get sick and produce tainted milk. In the coming year, Cancerian, you will experience expedited growth. Whether it turns out to be like the plants or cows will depend on your free will: How will you craft your relationship with abundance?
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):
To paraphrase George Santayana, "Those who don't study the past are doomed to repeat it." Meditate frequently on this wisdom during the next six months, Leo. You will be blessed with a host of opportunities to graduate from lessons that have been dragging on for years. For best results, do a memory-by-memory review of your entire life history at least three times between now and your next birthday. It's a time-consuming task, I know; each review will require you to do nothing else for a day or two. But it's one sure way to discern the ancient, moldy patterns that you urgently need to shed for good.
VIRGO(Aug. 23-Sept. 22):
I was invited to a late-night party at a rural estate two hours from my home. At first the trip was simple enough. My host's clear directions led me through a number of turns down country roads. But the last five miles snaked me through shadowy forests along a twisting, constantly forking one-lane road. Determined not to get lost, I stopped the car every few hundred yards and found a long stick to plant upright in the roadside mud as a marker. I felt like Hansel and Gretel leaving a trail of bread crumbs through the woods so they could find their way home. Refer back to this story regularly in 2002, Virgo. Your journey will be upliftingly transformative as long as you never lose track of where you are.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):
Usinger's Famous Sausage is the Official Hot Dog of the upcoming 2002 Winter Olympics. The Official Cosmetics Bag is Robert Talbott's mint-green silk model. When the athletes cry in victory or defeat, they will turn to limited-edition UltraSoft Pocket Packs to dry their tears: Kleenex is the Official Facial Tissue Supplier. If it were within my power, Libra, I would arrange for your tribe to be the Official Zodiac Sign of the winter games. With the expansive planet Jupiter holding court in your astrological House of Command in the coming months, you folks are likely to be at the height of your power, skill, and renown. In fact, I predict that a disproportionately large percentage of Olympic medal winners will be Libras.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):
The cosmic powers have an amusing challenge in store for you in 2002, Scorpio. But don't worry, I'll be laughing with you, not at you, as I watch you wrestle with your dual assignment: (1) Learn how to be innocent again, only on a higher, smarter level than you were earlier in your life. (2) Figure out how you can sincerely muster a fresh, updated capacity for having faith. The new models of both innocence and faith must not be anything like your old ones. You can't cultivate an ironic or distanced relationship with them. They have to work well for the deep, complex, discriminating person you have become.

Guess the Plot
On After the Sunset
1. An insider's look at the Hollywood machine and what it does to those on the periphery of the industry, as told by NF14221, a streetlight outside the Chinese Theater.
2. When Maggie Farnsdahl goes to live in a sixties style commune, she finds that Earnie Parnecker is carrying on well after sunset. Can she handle this new life of pot, acid, mushrooms and booty calls?
3. Convinced she has a great title for her masterwork, Cheryl is heartbroken to learn that a crappy Pierce Brosnan movie shares the same name. Undaunted, she tacks on a preposition. Will two simple letters spell the difference between the slushpile and stardom?
4. When Noah discovers the Fountain of Youth he wonders if it could bring back the hearing he lost, ending his career as a rock star. To find out he'll have to get past the Fountain's guardians. Unless . . . maybe they aren't on duty after sunset.
5. Gigi, a devoted soap opera fan, gets more than she bargained for when one lonely Friday night she decides to flip on her TV and see what's . . . On After the Sunset.
6. Forced into a nursing home by his greedy daughter Marcia, Emile Lord isn't about to go gently. If he has to run his financial empire by cell phone from a wheelchair, so be it, and if he has to lose everything to ensure that Marcia doesn't get a dime, so be that, too.
Original Version
Dear Malevolent Manuscript Mauler:
My name is ___________. I found your listing on the AgentQuery website. My novel, On After the Sunset, is an urban fantasy at about 115,000 words.
Rock star Noah McCabe lost his hearing, and along with it, his reason to exist. [What if Beethoven had cashed in his chips after losing his hearing? There'd have been no Die Hard, no A Clockwork Orange, and none of those movies with the Saint Bernard.] Now, the aging ex-musician holes up in his London flat, the Internet his only connection to the world. Then he [discovers newspapers and magazines and that his TV has closed captioning, and then he] finds a suicide note posted on his friend's, [friend] Lazarus Brown's, blog.
After several unanswered emails, Noah's concern turns to worry. [He was concerned, but not worried, after his friend left a suicide note?] How do you locate someone you know only over the Internet? [I'm hoping it's impossible, because there are a few guys in Nigeria trying to track me down.] What he knows about Laz is incidental: he lives in America, he became a recluse when his wife died, he collects old music. [Not bad, he's narrowed it down to six people already.]
Through EBay, Noah finds Echo Capris, an artist who sold a vinyl album to Laz. A former fan of Noah's, Echo agrees to help. The shipping address she has for Lazarus is in Kentucky.
When they arrive at the house, its decrepitation [I think you want decrepitude; decrepitation is something else.] indicates that they are too late. [Of course it's too late. The second the EBay woman came up with the address, he should have had her call the cops in Kentucky. Instead he books a flight from London? Or did he come by ocean liner?] [I'm guessing the last thing you do before committing suicide is write a suicide note. It's not like a will, where you write it in advance so you'll have it on the off chance you ever need it.] That evening's news confirms it; Laz was killed attempting to rob a bank. The obvious conclusion: suicide by cop. [That's obvious? I would have concluded that he was planning to kill himself because he was broke, and then realized that a better solution was acquiring a lot of money.]
But Noah refuses to accept this, despite the video footage. Not just despite it, but because of it. It's Laz's eyes. They're too empty: empty of thought, empty of pain, empty of volition. [Don't beat around the bush; if he's a zombie, say so.] Moreover, the bullet wounds have too little blood. [Not clear what that suggests. Was his blood drained by a vampire before he robbed the bank? Was he trying to commit suicide by slitting his wrists in the bathtub but it was taking too long so he changed plans?] Against her better judgment, Echo stays with Noah and listens to his ravings on kidnapping and brainwashing. They rewatch the robbery footage, and she finds herself falling down the rabbit hole with Noah. [How much footage do they have?]
Their investigation leads them to a green-eyed man who is murdered before they can question him. [Fortunately he died with his eyes open, which explains how it's known they were green.] A second murder takes them to Florida, and a third forces them into the Everglades to avoid the police. [A fourth has them jetting to Bermuda, and then it's off to Nigeria with the fifth murder.] [I've tied my record for most mentions of Nigeria in a query critique. The other time the book was set in Nigeria, so this is far more impressive.] There Echo falls under the thrall of a youth-obsessed harridan, [Have you been using your thesaurus?] LeGar. Tethered by his burgeoning love, [Yep, thesaurus addict.] Noah follows Echo and LeGar on their search for the Fountain of Youth. [You travel from Kentucky to the Everglades with a woman you met a few days ago, and then she and a woman you met a few minutes ago invite you to join them in searching for the Fountain of Youth . . . and you agree to go with them?]
LeGar defeats the guardians of the Fountain, and as they cower at her feet, [Wait a minute, they've found the Fountain of Youth? And it has guardians? Who are so inept they let an old lady defeat them, and then cower at her feet? Did you leave out the part where LeGar is actually Wonder Woman?] [Five and a half paragraphs of what sounds like it could be a mystery or thriller or mainstream fiction, and out of the blue LeGar the harridan is battling the guardians of the Fountain?] Noah is astonished to discover that a seemingly unharmed Lazarus Brown is their leader. [Lazarus has returned to life? Didn't see that coming.] [I'm not sure I'd want to admit that I'm the leader of a team of guardians who are cowering at the feet of an old crone.]
He has no time for wonder, however, for LeGar orders Echo to drink. [Since when does Echo take orders from LeGar?] The pain of reverse aging rips screams from her throat, and even more terrible, the Fountain is mixed with the River Lethe so that each year of recaptured youth is bought with the memories of that lost year. [That's even more terrible? Personally, I'll always take lost memories over pain that rips screams from my throat.] [Also, if I remember my mythology, the River Lethe was in Nigeria, not Florida.]
When Echo opens her eyes, she no longer remembers coming to the Everglades, no longer remembers searching for Laz, [They were searching for Laz? I thought they thought Laz was dead.] and no longer remembers Noah. [Mainly because she's now two years old.]
I have pasted the first two pages of On After the Sunset below my signature. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you,
I don't care how burgeoning my love for someone I recently met is; when she seriously suggests searching for the Fountain of Youth, red flags go up.
It needs to be more clear what's going on with Laz. What is he? If he's your first supernatural element, get it into the query before we forget it's supposed to be urban fantasy (I'm not convinced it is in any case.) You might even want to mention the Fountain up front, so it doesn't come out of nowhere: When Noah McCabe flies to Kentucky to prevent a friend's suicide, he has no idea he's embarking on an adventure that will lead him to the Fountain of Youth. Yes, I said the Fountain of Youth.
It's way too long for a query letter. Limit yourself to ten sentences, unless this is a synopsis. I can't tell whether the novel ends at the Fountain, or whether most of it takes place after they find it, but focus on what's most important and cut what you can do without.
Having a main character who can't hear would seem problematic. Do all the characters write everything down to communicate with him? It's hard enough to convince someone to go look for the Fountain of Youth if he can hear; trying to convince him by playing charades is nearly impossible.
Selected Comments
writtenwyrdd said...Sorry, this sounds really weak based on your letter. I don't find an emotional reason for your protagonist to chase after Lazarus, whom it appears he barely knows; and I agree with EE about not wanting to deepen a relationship with someone who says there's a Fountain of Youth.
Perhaps look at phrasing the letter so everything is emotionally and logically connected. You drop in story facts like bombs and it is jolting, not enticing.
blogless_troll said...This sounds interesting, but there's too much lead up and not much ending. I get the idea that Noah is upset the woman he just met doesn't remember him, but I'm not sure this is believable. If he's old and deaf and miserable, why not just drink some water himself? Then he and Echo could fall in love all over again AND be young. Also got the impression that once you drink you become Lazarus' slave or something, but it wasn't clear.
I was also going to point out there are no underground springs in the Everglades, so a fountain there would have to be man made. But then I realized you didn't actually say the fountain was in the Everglades. It's good you want to protect its location, but everyone knows its in Tampa.
AR said...Mh-hmm. Lots of interesting things going on here, might want to read it. I'd need a demonstration of how the things relate to one another and cohere into a story. From this vantage point they could be merely a string of unlikely events.
Sarah said...It's a good description of the plot, I think. It is long and has no focus. Or too many of them. Makes me wonder if your book jumps around plot-wise. If you can sum up the plot in one or two sentences then build around that, it should help. Your writing style sounds intriguing if this is a sample.
Anonymous said...Is it necessary to travel so much? Why must they go to Florida? Are you describing all this in the novel? I've lived in both London and Kentucky, and have vacationed in Florida... they're all (obviously) very different. I hope you've done your research, and I seriously hope you aren't using generalizations and sterotypes throughout the novel. That'll piss a lot of people off, and honestly, I am hesitant to ever read or watch anything regarding KY that wasn't written by a Kentuckian.
Seems everyone thinks only of Appalachia (that's where the crappy house is, isn't it?), and then assumes everyone is a drunk hillbilly feuding with the neighbors... grrrrrrrrr.
Anonymous said...I agree with writtenwrdd; the query is jolting. As EE suggested, mention the Fountain of Youth early on. Also, just a logic issue... you mention that Lazarus looks odd in the robbery footage; well, the footage is probably a bit unclear (as the cameras are usually stationed to look down from above, etc.) so I'm not sure his eyes or facial expression can be seen clearly, and even if it can, neither Echo or the deaf rock-star (sorry, can't recall his name) have ever even met him, right? How the hell do they know his face isn't always "blank." Some people just look that way :)
And I wouldn't travel hop so much in the query; it's confusing. I'd leave out the mention of both KY and FL, and simply say the journey takes him from London to the Fountain of Youth...
Anonymous said...I hate the title. I'm sorry, but On After the Sunset is horrible. It looks like a typo... so I'd never even pick your book up in a book store. I'd definitely suggest changing that...
MAL said...It does kind of feel like two different stories. While both are interesting, that still feels odd. And is there any reason the plot needs Kentucky? Couldn't Laz just live in FL and make things simpler?
benwah said...I agree with the general critique that the query bounces around too much. It needs direction and focus. Far too many jolting moments which has the effect of opening up lots of plot holes.
I'll address one: suicide by cop, at least when you state that it's "the obvious conclusion." (Having some experience with the phenomenon, it's not something that's just jumped to easily. Often it's a diagnosis of exclusion.) On the basis of grainy bank security camera footage Noah decides there's not enough blood coming out of the bullet holes...yet presumably the ME performed an autopsy, etc, etc. Now this is a plot point, and perhaps you've treated this in a completely appropriate way, but within the query, this raises questions that make me doubt your story.
The fountain of youth seems a little bit like a deus ex machina here since it seems to come out of nowhere and, as far as I can tell, serves to make Noah question his feelings for the woman Echo. (Please tell me this is the only name with some--ahem--resonance in a story with a hearing impaired protag.)
EE's point about having a deaf protag on a chase like this is a good one. I'd be curious to see how you play out the dialogue, the crashing through the swamps, etc. Is this a limited 3rd person? In which case you'd have to eliminate sounds. Could be interesting if well done.
As for the title: Meh. I guess you're shooting for the urban fantasy thing, but it's fairly bland. And far too close to said crappy movie.
Dave F. said...This story would work if Noah McCabe of England is searching for the Fountain of Youth or if Lazarus Brown hints to Noah that he is going to find it.
EE is correct about flying to Kentucky from England. It's a McGuffin that stretches common sense. It might work if Noah is completely obsessed with Lazarus, if this is his only reason to live, if Lazarus saved Noah in some way through their conversations on the internet. That's a very heavy Male-Male relationship (in a non-judgmental way).
There is another McGuffin that is a killer. How does Lazarus' body get to Florida? Here's a guy who robbed a bank, got killed, is very dead and then the police ship his body to the Everglades where he get reanimated by the fountain of youth. Not only that, he grows younger and forgets his scheme of dying, his internet friends and leaves his home and fortune behind?
The forgetfulness part of reverse aging argues that Lazarus doesn't know what he did in the past year or two or three.
The ideal age for youth is 21/22 or just when the human body gains adulthood. If I was reverted to that age and forgot the intervening years, I was only through three years of college and I would NOT know lots of science, not to mention the intervening experiences with friends and the wisdom that comes with age.
stick and move said...All lot of plot holes have been mentioned, and maybe they're taken care of appropriately in the book, but the big logic problem I have with this is, through Noah's detective work he tracks down a lady who helps him search for Laz and they wind up in the Everglades with another stranger, searching for the Fountain of Youth, and lo and behold, there's ol' Laz? You gotta be kidding. Coincidences happen in real life and fiction, but that's stretching it a bit, I think.
I do like the idea of a washed up rock star as a protag trying to solve a mystery. The story has some bones but the query leaves me puzzled and doubting. And the title, I'd work on that. Sorry to be so negative. I do believe you've got something to work with, and maybe the problems are just in the query. Good luck with it.
freddie said...I'm not getting the plots and how they are supposed to be connected. I assume they're supposed to be connected?
I'm curious how the writer handles a deaf character in the book. Stephen King, as most of you probably know, did a very good job with his character Nick Andros in The Stand. And that was a looong book. So a writer can pull it off if s/he treats the character with some humanity and gives the character a strong inner life. But it doesn't feel like that's the case here.
Writer, I do know something about the frustrations of losing hearing through music, having been through it myself, so if you have any questions . . . feel free to contact me on my near non-existent blog. I only lost enough to annoy the people around me, though - not all of it. So it may not be what you're looking for.
December/Stacia said...I think the idea of a Fountain of Youth and some strange cult guarding it is fascinating (though like the others I'm not sure it's really urban fantasy). Focus on that.

If this query just started with "Let me tell you about this weird dream I had..." it would work fine.

Constantin almost doubles distrib'n revenue
First six months boosted by 'The Wave,' 'Asterix'
The operating result for the period was 9.1 million euros ($13.4 million), a 170% year-over-year increase despite lowered total revenue, which sank to 110.3 million euros ($162.7 million) from 114.8 million euros ($169.3 million) over the first two quarters in 2007.
The lower sales number was expected, deriving mostly from shrinkage in TV production revenue. But the theatrical business took up much of the slack, thanks in part to local productions such as "The Wave," about a school experiment in Third Reich-style politics gone awry, and kiddie hits including the latest in the star-studded "Asterix" franchise. The top foreign title for Constantin was Jon Chu's "Step Up to the Streets."
TV exploitation also made a hefty contribution to the bottom line, up to 23.5 million euros ($34.7 million) from 12.9 million euros ($19 million) during the first two quarters of 2007.
Management sees the company on target for a positive year-end results, with Bernd Eichinger's long-awaited "Der Baader-Meinhof Komplex" scheduled for a fall release.

Patty Chase (Betty Armstrong) puts up with a lot of shit. Not only does she have to put up with playing the bad cop to good cop dad, Graham Chase (Tom Irwin), but she also gave birth to teenage drama lightning rod Angela Chase (Claire Danes) and has to work for her own dad (Paul Dooley), whose staggering immaturity puts any Liberty High student to shame. Nobody gave Patty enough credit for enduring record levels of angst and ennui once every week when the show was on the air, and that's why I'm dedicating this week's Pop Pedestal to My So-Called Life's Patricia Chase.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I have a freshman at Bullitt East and so far I think it is agreat school. My daughter likes most of her classes, but doesn't like all the homework. I think she is getting a good education in this district. I also like that they have so many clubs for the teens. Strict dress code and I get grades sent to my phone with the parent portal app.
Teachers are nice..and if there is any questions or concerns all you have to do is call the board of education. They are working on the construction of the school now to help future students. All schools have cut back on funding projects due to the economy..Bullitt East is still a good school...maybe not the best but everyone learns just as our students are learning.
When we first moved to Mt. Washington we were concerned about the quality of education. From elementary to a freshman in HS I truly don't believe we could have made a better decision for our daughter. We have been impressed by the quality of teachers, principals, class content, facilities, parent involvement, and the level of interest my daughter has in school. The board of education is very active and progressive and there are a lot of additional enhancements, to the educational system, coming in Bullitt County. A small county that is on the move. I did not want my daughter going to school in Jefferson County - that system is a mess.
I love this school the teacher are all nice. There is many of clubs/sports to join .
Great high school. I have a grandson who is a freshman at Bullitt East High School. I am very proud that he is going to this high school...
im a sophmore an tha teachers there are great there always welling to help... an there really care for tha students there...
I think my daughters' education has been outstanding and I love the teachers and staff. They seem to really care for the students. There is also a family feel to the school and it seems to have a great group of kids attending there. Great Job!
I think that the administration is awesome and really cares about kids. I really appreciate their hard work and dedication to our community.
The principle and staff have a degrading type attitude towards the students. They basically place themselves above their students and parents. I've encountered three incidents with them and all three times they have gone on the offensive and simply have no concern for facts or their own behavior or actions. Dysfunctional. There is no need to talk down on parents or students in the simplest conversations, they actually elevate the circumstance to a conflict. There is no need for such aggression, they are suppose to be professional educators.
As a former student, I saw several principals coming in and out--almost every year I attended. I've never seen a school have so many problems.
I'm disappointed that this school focuses more on the quantity of assistant principals instead of quality. As a parent, it is important that I send my teenage daughter off to school and not have to worry about the environment she is in. However, with Bullitt East, it's an everyday concern. I'm looking into private schools now so that she may get to transfer and actually enjoy her high school years, what's left of them. This school needs to focus on their student body and if nothing else, at least pretend to care about what is going on. This school leaves much to be desired. I for one don't think the administration has what it's going to take to turn this school around. What really gets me, is that they deny having any problems at all.
I honestly do not think the school administration could care any less for their students. I do not believe that they make an effort to reach out and make a difference, nor do they attempt to keep parents informed. However, the teachers (not administration) I've come in contact with, seem to be doing their jobs fairly well. It is disappointing that the 'professionals' who represent a school could do such a poor job. Time after time (with my experience) they have failed to make even a small effort to protect their student body. I would expect more out of a school; unfortunately, this one doesn't seem to have any expectations for itself.
My son is autistic. He attended a private school for the first 8 years. I met the attendance clerk in town and she highly recommended BEHS for our son. She was so right. He has excelled academically and socially. He is now a senior and he will really miss the awesome support and integration that the teachers, counselors and staff have shown him. The student body has been nothing less than gracious and accepting. When we go into a local shop, and there are teens working, they always speak to our son. He has 'buddies' that sit with him in lunch, play ball and include him in physical ed courses, and genuinly accept him. We plan to donate some funds and contribute to it each year for the Special Ed at BEHS. It's an exceptional, inclusive environment, from top to bottom.

Allison Tant, chairwoman of the Florida Democratic Party, doesn't have an easy job.
Even though most of the state's registered voters are Democrats, Tant's party doesn't control any of the statewide elected offices, the congressional delegation or either chamber of the state Legislature.
And her party's best prospect for 2014 is gubernatorial Charlie Crist — a relative newcomer to the party who was elected governor as a Republican in 2006.

Five Things Weird Al Critiques in Mandatory Fun
By Steve Brennan
By Ashley Zimmerman
"I was driving through the Redwood Forest in Mendocino, California, and saw a ray of sun peeking through the trees. It was then that I saw my name in three syllables: 'Ma-Ri-Jah. '" 'The tie-dyed dreadlocked Marijah was raised an Afro-Italian-American Rasta girl in a New Jersey ghetto, beating imaginary drums on car hoods and anything else she could get her hands on. A graduate of the flower-power, weed-smoking, sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll generation, her free spirit now lends itself to an array of ethnic percussion instruments and sugar-sweet vocals over varied reggae rhythms. Believing there's a distinct lack of female entertainers in the reggae world, the Lake Worth-based Marijah fights for her right to party with positivity. Her current CD, Spirit of a Woman, is laid-back, refreshing, and exceptionally charming. Marijah and the Reggae All-Stars perform at 5:30 p.m. at Clematis by Night, Clematis Street and Flagler Drive, West Palm Beach, on Thursday, September 4. Call 561-659-8007.

Reforming the Entrepreneurship Ecosystem: A Study on Barriers to Growth in Tunisia and Egypt
Article at a glance
- This article summarizes the main barriers to entry and growth as experienced by entrepreneurs and business owners in Egypt and Tunisia, and looks at regional differences within each country, differences between formal and informal enterprises, and differences by gender of business owners.
- Top barriers to growth in 2013 were reported to be political instability and public disorder, administrative inefficiency, and restrained access to finance. Even among formal businesses, informal mechanisms often compensate for the absence of effective state institutions and the rule of law.
- Administrative reforms and deeper investments in infrastructure and human capital are needed to build the business-friendly ecosystem needed to generate jobs, grow the economy, and create opportunities for all citizens

Re-Interpreting the 'Chinese Miracle': A Multi-Dimensional Framework
This article is based on a longer piece published under the same title in the International Journal on World Peace, Vol. XXVIII No. 1 March 2011.
China is widely regarded as one of the success stories of globalization. Analysts identify China's success in terms of high and sustained rates of aggregate growth and per capita national income, the absence of a major financial crisis, and a substantial reduction in poverty. They tend to view these results as the consequences of a prudent, yet extensive, program of domestic deregulation and global economic integration, as well as sound macroeconomic management. The outcome of highly accelerated economic development has been frequently called the Chinese Miracle.Read more...
The World's Youngest Democracy
This article was the first place winner in the Democratic Transitions category of CIPE's 2011 Youth Essay Contest.
"India is the world's largest democracy" is now a phrase which I am sure you are bored of hearing. There is, however, a much less bandied about but equally true phrase: "India is the world's youngest democracy."
Today, 54 percent of India's population is below the age of 25. Over seven out of 10 Indians are below the age of 35. The Population Council of India estimates that there are 315 million people between the ages of 10 and 24. It is estimated that there were 350 million Indians in the politically crucial age group of 15-34 in the year 2000. This number may rise to 485 million by 2030. By 2020, the average Indian will be 29 years old as compared to 37 in China, 45 in Western Europe and 49 in Japan.Read more...

Driving Growth Through Economic Freedom and the Rule of Law
Economic freedom contributes to economic growth by fostering competition among actors, leading to increased innovations, efficiency, and ultimately, productivity. Economic freedom also allows investments to be more efficient, leading to growth. The rule of law, as understood as the protection of private property and contractual rights, can protect economic freedom and contribute to growth as well.
Still, the question remains of how to describe economic institutions that make the exercise of economic freedom possible. This article sets out to describe the different component of economic freedom and explain how they relate to both economic growth and the rule of law. Then, it addresses what is necessary for good economic institutions to foster growth on the basis of economic freedom.
What's Next for Women in the World?
The World Economic Forum has surveyed 114 countries each year since 2006 to measure inequality between men and women in terms of economic participation and opportunities, educational attainment, health, and political empowerment. The Global Gender Gap Report index scores can be interpreted as the percentage of the gap that has been closed between women and men. According to their findings, no country has yet to achieve complete gender equality.
The inequality in economic participation (salaries, participation, and highly-skilled employment) and political empowerment (representation in decision-making structures) remains particularly wide. Globally, only 59 percent of the economic gap and 19 percent of the political empowerment gap have closed (100 percent would signify complete equality). Regionally, Latin America, Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa are more unequal than North America, Europe, and Central Asia. The Middle East and North Africa region shows the largest gender gap.
There has, however, been progress. Of the 114 countries examined by the World Economic Forum, 97 have improved their gender inequality gaps over the last four years.Read more...

Getting to the Heart of the Brain: Talent in Unexpected Places
Do you wonder how you are shaped by the world, how it shapes the way you think and inspires you to create? Why storytelling is such a powerful way to communicate a lesson, impart meaning and preserve a history? Dr. Layne Kalbfleisch, former middle school teacher and educational psychologist and cognitive neuroscientist at the Krasnow Institute for Advanced Study and George Mason University, will talk about how the brain reads, calculates, navigates, feels, develops and ages. She will discuss where imagination comes from and whether talent arises from your intelligence or your creativity. Her groundbreaking neuroimaging research examines the relationship between talent and disability in autistic children and those with attention disorders, how the physical, emotional, and social environments influence problem-solving and ingenuity, and how learning arises from the 'outside in' and the 'inside out.'
Layne Kalbfleisch is the recipient of the Scientist Idol award from the National Science Foundation and contributor to the international publication, Understanding the Brain: The Birth of a Learning Science. In her most recent article, Layne explores how the left brain-right brain distinction has no basis in science. It can be read online in the Roeper Review.

text: Hagel is a delicate flower by John Hayward 31 Jan 2013 post a comment Share This: In response to Media flipping out over Ted Cruz questioning of Hagel: I think it's a great idea to have "some kind of victim" as Secretary of Defense. You wouldn't want some sort of super-patriotic America-is-awesome tough guy in a job like that. We need someone who understands how the hearts of the Iranian mullahs break a little, every time their legitimate elected government has to mutilate a dissident or jail a Christian. Chuck Hagel knows they're crying inside, just like he cries every time a mean old conservative throws his own words in his face.

Kate Gosselin: So Sad, So Lonely!by Free Britney at . Comments
Kate Gosselin still doesn't know if she is ready to move on.
It's been nearly two years since she separated from her ex Jon Gosselin, and the mother of eight sat down with Dr. Drew Wednesday for a tearful, candid interview.
The usually stoic 36-year-old got choked up, confessing that the single life "so lonely" and saying it would take a very special man to take on eight kids now.
Even if one wanted to, she isn't sure she can handle that.
When asked "Do you have a love life?' Kate replied: "No. I'm too busy."
"A lot of my friends who are being constructive say 'gosh, who are you going to meet that is going to be able to deal with eight kids?' My answer's always if they can deal with eight children in our situation it probably will be the person. It will sort of prove it."
Dr. Drew pushed Kate further, asking: "You're tough but don't you want somebody in your life?" To which she replied: "Absolutely! The odds are so against me.""I mean, I don't expect someone to come in and financially provide for my kids, I mean, they're mine, that's my job. So, just to have somebody there..."
"One mom and eight kids ... so it would be great. I mean, I'm so lonely. I clean up the house, put the kids to bed and there I sit. Ideally I would find that person."
"I mean, I just don't know if I feel ready for that."
Guys, would you date Kate Gosselin?
By the looks of her she only cares about herself ,if shes so sad why all the tanning and plastic surgery ,I think it's a publicity stunt ,she needs to go away ....Please!
@ Kate! SANDI SUE is right! Suck it up! Me? I grew up on the Border and at one time- I wouldn't even throw a rock across the Rio Grande River for fear of hitting one of my kids in the head. It's not like your the only one you know.
Kate is in need of intensive mental health. She continues to blame her test tube 8 and she whines and whines complaining poor me, no one will have me with the 8. Kate, get a job like the rest of the world with large families. Many women have a ton of children, without as much money as you have, and meet men and have men in their lives. The world of TV or entertainment does not have an obligation to provide for your 8. You have no talent. You are so damaged and pathetic.
She's pretty- then again so is a Cobra.
@joop: get with the program. Jon did not want any more kids after the twins. It was Kate's plan to have multiples. I guess you never saw the interview where she said, "We couldn't afford the twins let alone 8 kids." Yup, Kate is a real manipulative shrew.
@Josie Berlin: yadda yadda yadda.....another bible thumper. I wonder if Kate Gosselin feels sorry for her husband Jon after she abused him while he worked his hiney off while queen Kate sat in her plastic chair barking orders. I wonder if Kate feels sorry for the way she treats her kids, I mean she did say they were not Gosselins because they wanted to camp in Alaska with the Palins. I wonder if Kate feels bad when she tweeted that we are all mediocre. I wonder if Kate feels bad when she does absolutely nothing for anyone but herself. Do you think the Lord is asking Kate if she is kind and helpful to others? LOL!!
arrrwwwwwww poor Baby, still crying, why don't you sell your kids to the highest bidder....then you buy so more fake shit and cry about it..nobody wants a loser, so get use of being by yourself..
God I can't stand this woman! I got divorced with 6 kids 8 and under, and their father didn't spend a single day with them after that. If your kids need you, you sacrifice your live life to raise them. That's what mothers do. Maybe she shouldn't have kicked Jon out if she didn't want to raise those kids on her own. She has cleaning people, nannies, a bodyguard, and 8 kids. If she's lonely, then she's crazy. She is always crying victim!!!! She is the one who did the fertility drugs, etc, and she shouldn't have if she didn't really want all those kids. She is an idiot, alwayscrying hoping someone will give her money or a job! Go back to nursing, Kate! They make good money, and can almost demand what they are paid! Go away!!!!!
I'd still bang the crap out of her.
TSk TSK ! I would imagine her va-jay-jay has seen enough action for a lifetime.

Origins of ancient Chinese civilization under reconsideration.
Washington, August 21 (ANI): Recent archaeological discoveries from far-flung corners of China are forcing scientists to reconsider the origins of ancient Chinese List of ancient Chinese is a list of noteworthy people of ancient China. Different definitions of "ancient" China exist, but most agree that it is before the Tang dynasty. Related lists

The wealth of these recent archaeological discoveries demands a re-write of some history books - and young scholars are even now questioning the existence of a legendary Chinese dynasty, the Xia.
Less willing to take ancient texts at face value than their predecessors, this new generation of Chinese researchers is relying on physical data - and more "Western" methods - in their attempts to accurately retrace Chinese history.

Lawler's special news package on Chinese archaeology covers the accidental discovery and later excavation of Jinsha, an ancient site located near downtown Chengdu in Sichuan, and about 600 miles (1000 kilometers) from the traditional center of Chinese civilization along the Yellow River.
Long assumed to have been a cultural backwater, researchers have only recently gleaned the real history of Sichuan's surprisingly ancient and rich culture, which is thousands of years older than they had once believed.
These recent discoveries have led Chinese researchers to acknowledge significant outside influence on their ancient culture, breaking an old taboo taboo or tabu (both: tăb`, tə–), prohibition of an act or the use of an object or word under pain of punishment. put in place when China was largely closed to the outside world.

Hard to mess this up. Discounted tickets to the Dodger v Reds game. I am a Reds fan. No problem. The Dodgers always do baseball one way (conservative, no silly music, no jumbotron) and if you like it that way you are in luck. I like it like that, when the Reds win. And they did.

As part of our LinuxCon Preview series, I recently had the opportunity to ask a few questions of our keynote speaker Stormy Peters. Stormy today is executive director for The GNOME Foundation. Her LinuxCon keynote, titled "Your Desktop is Free, But Where is Your Data," takes place on Thursday, August 12, at 9 a.m. ET.
After its sold-out debut last year, LinuxCon in year two is expected to be even better.
Today is the day! We're announcing the winning design and designer in our Linux.com T-shirt Design Contest.
Our winning design, with 57 percent of the vote, is "The People's Product" and was submitted by Said Hassan of Gaza in Palestine.
Coming out of Computex, there's been a lot of momentum for Meego, the Linux-based platform that can power multiple computing devices, including handsets, netbooks, tablets, connected TVs and in-vehicle infotainment systems. Ibrahim Haddad, the Linux Foundation director of technology and alliances, has just published a new article, "An Introduction to the Meego Project."
Virgin America's Ravi Simhambhatla is delivering a keynote at this year's LinuxCon North America. He will be giving us the CIO view on how to sell the value of open source internally when cost isn't the only driving factor. Mr. Simhambhatla took a few minutes to answer some of our questions as we prepare to see him speak in Boston on August 12, 2010.
Software compliance isn't exactly the sexiest topic we tackle at the Linux Foundation, but it's one of the most important. While we focus *our* efforts on open source software, the vast majority of software compliance efforts are focused on proprietary licenses. Just ask a CIO of an enterprise who has been audited by one of their software suppliers recently, or look at the well funded efforts of the Business Software Alliance, an organization dedicated to stamping out piracy and keeping companies in compliance with their members.
Our third profile in the series introduces us to Damian Bere. Damian is a Senior Enterprise Architect based in the UK who has been using Linux for 10 years. Another fact about Damian: he's smitten with his @linux.com email address.
The iPhone 4 came out this week. Apple continues to raise the bar for the mobile software industry in terms of good design. Companies that have embraced Linux should take heed. I ask the question as to whether or not Linux can beat Apple today in Businessweek.
Developers and programmers are always the earliest adopters of technology, paving the way for the rest of us. And nowhere is that more evident than with Linux.
There is a really useful, free training webinar available now from one of our regular Linux.com writers (and former openSUSE Community Manager), the talented Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier...
