Hurom HRM0030 Premium White Slow Juicer/Smoothie Maker
Patented Pulp Control Lever & Juice Cap:
With the new HH Premium Slow Juicer you can now make juices, smoothies, slushes, blended drinks and even purees and the absolute "Pulp Control" allows you make practically clear juice with no pulp up to lots of pulp.
Now with 2 strainers (fine & course)
The 2-strainer System of the new HH Series Premium Slow Juicer now gives you even better control and you can juice anything from bananas and avocados to kale, wheatgrass, even nuts and soybeans.
- Hopper Lid: Keep your juicer clean when not in use with the new Hopper Lid.
- 100% BPA - FREE: Now build completely without the use of any BPA
- Minimal parts and no sharp blades (Kid-Friendly): With no sharp blades, effective safety feature and minimal use of parts - the new Premium juicer is extremely safe to use and kid-friendly.
- Large Tritan magnetic safety bowl with measuring scale: The bowl will stay where it belongs and the measuring scale cuts out the "guess-work".
- Practical nesting juice and pulp containers: Storing your juicer is now even easier and more compact with the practical nesting juice and pulp container.
- Up to 50% Better & Healthier Juice with up to 6 times more Vitamin C: By extracting the juice instead of grinding the juice (like traditional juicers), the Hurom Slow Juicer provides up to 50% the amount of juice with up to 6 times more vitamin C. Enjoy more antioxidants, better flavour and superior freshness. No frothing or foaming, and none of the separation that occurs with other juicers.
- Dual Juicing Process: Juice is extracted through the first crushing stage and before the pulp is ejected, it is then squeezed during the second pressing stage; resulting in more juice, and extremely dry pulp.
- More Juice Extracted: In-house testing found the Hurom Slow Juicer yielded 50% more juice than a centrifuge juicer in 50% of the time.
- Continues Extraction System: The Hurom automatically ejects all of the peel and pulp as it juices - letting you enjoy a constant flow of pure juice without the inconveniences of stopping or removing blockage.
- Clog-Free: Automatically separates pulp from juice. Rotating brush cleans the bowl while it juices.
- Economical: Get the greatest amount of juice from the least amount of fruits.
- Versatile juicing: Use for Fruit Juice, Vegetable Juice, Ice Cream, Corn Juice, Soy Juice and cooking.
- Easy Clean System: Hurom is equipped with the patented "Easy Clean System" - a spinning brush located inside the bowl that cleans the surface while juicing. This not only prevents clogging but also reduces cleaning time considerably. Simply rinse with water while changing fruit and when finished.
- New design with small footprint: With only 9.75 "long, 6.75" wide and 15.75" high - the revolutionary design allows the patented technology to be packed in a beautiful housing with a smaller footprint than most traditional juicers.
- Quiet Operation: The Hurom juicer minimizes the noise by squeezing slowly rather than grinding at high speed like centrifugal juicers. At only 30-55db the Hurom juicer operates at a noise level much lower than most traditional juicers (about 70-90db).
- Durable: The Hurom Slow Juicer is made with GE's ULTEM material which is 8 times stronger than other plastics.
- Kid-friendly: No sharp blades and effective safety features.
- Extensive 10 YEAR warranty: The strong and durable 150 watt motor comes with an extensive 10 year warranty.
The first generation slow juicer was excellent and now with this new one you can control the pulp. I now do juices and smoothies with one machine. I highly recommend this product. Dave - Owner

Detecting lead hotspots in urban gardens requires different sampling strategies
DETROIT — The local food movement is gaining traction in cities across America, with urban gardens contributing a healthy source of fresh produce for local citizens. Urban gardening is not without risks, however.
Many garden plots within cities were previously inhabited by residences or industrial buildings that disposed of toxic chemicals on site, creating potential health hazards from the use of lead in paint, gasoline and industrial activities.
To properly assess the risk of soil contamination in urban gardens, researchers from Wayne State University analyzed the lead content in soil across a local urban garden plot and evaluated the results of several sampling strategies, some of which failed to detect a lead "hotspot."
The research team of Lauren Bugdalski, WSU student, Lawrence D. Lemke, Ph.D., associate professor of geology and student mentor, and Shawn P. McElmurry, Ph.D., assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering, summarized their findings in the article "Spatial Variation of Soil Lead in an Urban Community Garden: Implications for Risk-Based Sampling" in the journal Risk Analysis, published by the Society for Risk Analysis.
The research emerged from Bugdalski's undergraduate work and was supported by a grant from Wayne State to expand undergraduate research opportunities.
Ingesting or inhaling even small amounts of lead can cause neurological disorders in children and adults. Not only is lead more easily absorbed into children's growing bodies, they can have higher exposures because they are more likely to accidentally ingest contaminated soil when playing outside.
The current permissible contaminant level for lead in soil, set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is 400 parts per million (ppm) for residential soils where children are likely to play.
Current EPA guidance for sampling residential plots for lead recommends analyzing as few as two composite samples to ensure that the plot is safe for activities such as gardening or children's play.
Given the varied nature of soils and the potential for multiple sources of lead contamination, the Wayne State researchers concluded that two samples might not be sufficient to detect contaminated hotspots.
Lemke said that soil sampling is important because "the highest risk of exposure generally comes from dust and soil sticking to unwashed vegetables, not from direct uptake into the vegetable plants themselves. The easiest way to reduce this risk is to thoroughly wash fresh vegetables, especially leafy plants, before eating them."
The researchers sampled 80 sites across a 49-by-98-foot garden plot. The soil lead concentration measured at the sites was highly variable across the plot, and 2 percent of the samples exceeded the 400 ppm EPA threshold.
A prominent hotspot was detected in the northwest corner of the plot, where gardening or other activities would pose undue risks. Examination of historic city documents indicated that a paint shop had been located on the property, explaining the origin of the contaminated hotspot.
Based on the researchers' statistical models, the collection of 20 samples in the 15-by-30-meter plot would be needed to be 95 percent confident that the hotspot would be detected.
A common practice is to average several soil samples in close proximity to create a "mixture" of the sampled site. However, the researchers cautioned that this practice could lead to failure to detect a hotspot entirely, as nearby low-concentration samples would dilute the average to permissible levels.
The researchers recommend that garden organizers interested in an untested plot check local libraries for "Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps," which show local land uses often going back 100 years, to see if contaminants were potentially used on site.

JAMESTOWN, N.Y. — Local food pantries are looking for help this holiday season, like the Salvation Army in Jamestown, which has seen an 11 percent rise in need this fall.
Officials say even the Food Bank of Western New York, where they buy most of their food, has seen and increase in demand this year.
The Salvation Army says priority number one is making sure children and their families have healthy food to eat during tough times.
"We need to get people over the hump. I do believe that things will turn around eventually. I'm not sure we've hit rock bottom yet but we have to be pretty close," said Major Doug Hart, Salvation Army.
Hart says the best way people can help out this holiday season is to donate to the red kettle campaign. He says that money stays in the community where it's raised.

Tech Stocks in Motion
Updated from 1:10 p.m. EDT
Shares of E-Loan (EELN) were among technology's winners Monday, rising 13.4% after the company announced that it would begin offering consumer financing for cars and motorcycles bought on eBay (EBAY). eBay Motors did about $11.1 billion in worldwide gross merchandise sales during 2004. Shares of E-Loan traded up 40 cents to $3.38.
Mercury Interactive (MERQ) rose 12.1% after the business software company previewed fourth-quarter earnings and sales that topped forecasts. Excluding items, the company expects earnings of 40 cents to 42 cents a share on sales of $203 million to $205 million. Analysts surveyed by Thomson First Call were expecting earnings of 34 cents a share on sales of $190.7 million. Mercury plans to report its full fourth-quarter results on Feb. 2; it will provide a first-quarter outlook at that time. Shares traded up $4.54 to $42.17.
Shares of Travelzoo (TZOO) fell 24.6% after the company announced an SEC inquiry into trading by company employees. The online travel publisher also reported earnings that were reduced by nearly $1 million by unexpected payouts to customers who took part in a 1998 promotional giveaway. On a conference call, Travelzoo said the SEC inquiry is probably the result of a rally that took its shares up more than 1,000% in 2004. Still, Travelzoo said it provided information about transactions by its officers, directors and employees. Shares traded down $18.05 to $55.33.Equant (ENT) rose 15.7% after France Telecom offered to buy the shares of the company it doesn't already own. France Telecom will offer Equant shareholders 564 million euros, or $737 million, for the remaining 46% of the company it hasn't already purchased. Equant's board has appointed a special committee of three independent directors to evaluate the offer, the company said. Shares traded up 75 cents to $5.53.

"Tonight at Thula Thula, the whole herd arrived at the main house, home to Lawrence and I. We had not seen them here for a very long time. Extraordinary proof of animal sensitivity and awareness that only a few humans can perceive. And Lawrence was one of them. Thank you for your wonderful messages.

Tyra Banks PS
1 Attachment(s)
I was searching for something else on Google, and found this pic of Tyra.
She looks soooo different!
Tyra Banks plastic surgery (to be correct, I'll say alleged plastic surgery) is extremely obvious. Does Tyra still deny that she has had a nose job? There is no natural explanation for a person's nose going from that, to its current state.
I know she did an entire show to prove she didn't have breast implants, but how about doing the same about her nose? I'm not holding my breath on that one ;)
She always wants to come across that people's differences are beautiful and they should be "true to themselves". Typical Hollywood hypocrite.

New London — The U.S. Coast Guard barque Eagle will spend half of each year for the next four years at the Coast Guard Yard in Baltimore and the other half at sea, with only brief stops in its homeport of New London.
Eagle will administratively shift its homeport, temporarily, from New London to Baltimore beginning April 1 so the crew's families can begin moving, with the goal of returning in 2018, Capt. Raymond "Wes" Pulver, Eagle's commanding officer, said Thursday. The ship will go to Baltimore in September.
The barque returned to New London Thursday after spending four months in the yard in Baltimore for maintenance work. More extensive projects will be done during the six-month periods, Pulver said, so Eagle can continue to be the training vessel for Coast Guard Academy cadets and officer candidates for another 30 to 40 years.
For now, the crew will focus on the training and inspections to get ready for the summer training program for academy cadets and officer candidates for the Coast Guard and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Pulver added.
Eagle leaves in March to sail along the East Coast to North Carolina with the first group of officer candidates before returning in early April to City Pier.
Eagle will spend most of the month and early May hosting tours for the public at City Pier, then sail with cadets to the Caribbean, Canada and ports along the East Coast this summer before returning to City Pier again for about three weeks in August.
Pulver said he wants to spend more time downtown in the coming months to highlight Eagle as part of the fabric of the community here. When Eagle was last at City Pier in April, 200 to 300 people visited a day, Pulver said. When Eagle is at Fort Trumbull and the crew is working on the ship, about 20 people a day visit.
In September, after another group of officer candidates sail aboard it, Eagle will go to Baltimore for the service-life extension, during which time antiquated equipment will be replaced, lead paint will be removed and work will be done on the hull. The work will be done over four years so the crew can still sail to train the Coast Guard's future leaders and maintain their skills, Pulver said.
The barque underwent a service-life extension more than 30 years ago and is due for another.
Even while the ship is based in Baltimore, Pulver said he will try to bring Eagle to New London as often as possible. Instead of asking the cadets and officer candidates to travel to Baltimore, Pulver said, he and the crew could pick them up or drop them off in Connecticut.
In the past four months in Baltimore, the foremast was overhauled and some smaller maintenance projects were completed to ensure the safety of the crew and trainees, for a cost of about $2 million. All three masts were overhauled in the past three years. The service-life extension will cost about $20 million to $30 million, Pulver said.
"It's a constant effort to keep the ship safe, but we've definitely got the focus of both the crew and the Coast Guard on that goal," he said.
After leaving Baltimore Saturday morning, Eagle returned home slowly, because of the snowstorm and to help new crew members get acclimated, Pulver said.
"We've been looking forward to coming home for a while. We get great work done in the Coast Guard Yard, but the home of Eagle is New London, our families are here so it means a great deal for us to come home," he said. "I would summarize with 'thrilled.'"
When: Most days from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. while in port in February
Where: Fort Trumbull pier

Anyone can glue on some tip overlays and shape them into a suitable bow limb tip, but do they look good? As a graphic designer, I'm always interested in making my bows look good and have good proportions. This applies especially to the limb tips.
The rule of thirds is a "rule of thumb" or guideline which applies to the process of composing visual images such as paintings, photographs, and designs. The guideline proposes that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally-spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections. Proponents of the technique claim that aligning a subject with these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition than simply centering the subject would. (From Wikipedia. Click here to see the entire explanation.)
For bow limb tips, the focal point is usually where the string groove is located. It looks best when it is placed either one third of the way from the tip to the end of the overlay…or from the other direction…one third of the way from the end of the overlay to the tip. The photo illustrates this (click on the orange photo to see it larger).
The upper drawing looks great on long, narrow bows like English longbows. The long, sleek lines help the design flow from end to end on this style of bow. Making a built-in tip on an ELB really long and thin also makes it look more like the bone or antler tips that are often glued onto the tips of English Long Bows.
A tip designed like the lower drawing often looks better on short, wide tips like recurves and flat bows. The short, squatty design accentuates the short lines of a short and wide bow. This style of tip is probably stronger than a tip that looks like the upper drawing, too, because it reinforces the area below the string grooves more. Making the overlays long, gradual, and tapered helps distribute the stress from the string over a larger area of the limb tip. Plus, minimizing the amount of material beyond the groove reduces moving mass which improves bow efficiency. It is likely that any material that is left on the tip when making your bow does not add much additional strength, and merely adds more moving mass. A fast, efficient limb is like a hot rod drag racing car…the lighter it is, the faster it will recover from full draw to brace height.
I hope this idea helps you decide what tip design(s) you like best.

GScreen laptop hides a second screen behind the first
Well, this is a crazy contraption. The GScreen is a laptop that hides a secondary screen behind its main on, allowing you to slide it out and effectively double your screen real estate. Madness!
Of course, tossing a second screen on board adds a lot of weight, with the 15.4-inch model clocking in at over 12 pounds. But you'll be able to use dual screens on a laptop! It's not available yet, but the plan is to sell these guys through Amazon by this December, with the first units sporting 16 or 17-inch screens. And they'll definitely be expensive. But wow, look at that thing!

Funny Baby Crying Image Gallery
I don't know who this guy is but he made a gallery of his kids crying, and then labeled them. It got a chuckle out of me so I thought I'd share!

This past weekend at the Grammys, Taylor Swift launched into a performance of her hit "All Too Well," but was joined on stage by a surprise guest.
I'm a fan of the memes.
I always get a good chuckle off these bad boys, so here is today's meme Monday!
It's MONDAY! My first day back in the office since my wedding and at the end of the day as I put together today's, Meme Monday, I can't help but feel like this...
Today's "Meme Monday" is one that I think many of our listeners can identify with... the social network share button. Now gentlemen, I think the porn site thing is more up your alley but I definitely can identify with the whole, "I'm looking at something embarrassing hopefully it doesn't accidentally get loaded to Facebook!"
Yes, there is a meme that is named "Inappropriate Sexual Innuendo Dog That Dresses And Talks Like A Pirate." And what better day to feature the top 10 than on Talk Like A Pirate Day! So stop swabbing your poop deck and climb aboard for a treacherous trip through our booty! Arrrrrrggghhhhh!
I am a crazy cat lady and if you truly want to know what radio life is here you go. I sit on the computer making cat memes while talking to you Grand Rapids. It is true though, cats will try to crawl in any box no matter the size!
Oh, Internet -- you continue to host wonderful ideas for the betterment of all humankind.
And then there's this.
***SPOILERS*** ***THIS WHOLE POST IS A GIANT SPOILER*** ***IF YOU DID NOT WATCH 'GAME OF THRONES' LAST NIGHT, CLICK AWAY*** Otherwise, hilarity awaits you.
It all started with Zeddie Little, who remained ridiculously photogenic while running a marathon. Since then we've met the ridiculously photogenic surgery girl, the ridiculously photogenic jui jitsu guy and a host of others who have maintained their photo-ready best in less than ideal circumstance.
This is a fairly self-explanatory activity -- photos of pretty young women are juxtaposed with photos of them looking pretty awful. Interestingly, many of these Reddit submissions come from the young ladies themselves. Why they do this isn't obvious. Perhaps it's that timing is everything? To show that they're pretty and, well, some version of funny? Whatever their motivation, there's no denying that these transformations are certainly spectacular, if nothing else.
Remember Michelle Jenneke? She's the Australian hurdler with the infectious dance. Nothing? Here's a refresher. She's back for this original video from The Chive, and she's dancing all over the place. Plus somebody eats pancakes with nunchucks. That's pretty much

Bars Must Speak to the Wanderer
"Not to find one's way in a city may well be uninteresting and banal. It requires ignorance—nothing more. But to lose oneself in a city—as one loses oneself in a forest—that calls for a quite different schooling. Then, signboard and street names, passers-by, roofs, kiosks, or bars must speak to the wanderer like a cracking twig under his feet in the forest." Walter Benjamin, "Berlin Chronicle"

Fresh: Stone does populist anti-war with a passion.
- Cole Smithey, ColeSmithey.com, Thursday, June 24, 2010
Rotten: Stone has created a film whose overblown parts add up to far less than the epic whole he had in mind.
- Desson Thomson, Washington Post, Saturday, January 1, 2000
Audience Reviews
This is without a doubt my favorite Oliver Stone movie. It has all of the passion and and emotional depth in ten minutes that most Vietnam movies try to attain for 2 hours. Tom Cruise played an amazing Ron Kovic, you were able to see the entire breakdown and redemption of his character. I loved the message of the movie, it wasn't so much about action and physical damage of the war. It was about the complete destruction of hope for so many individuals. It's so heartbreaking to see such a good person have to suffer through so much.

Assorted congresscriminals and other Feds have their knickers in a twist because Leviathan is spying on its own. "Recent revelations that the Food and Drug Administration and possibly other agencies are aggressively monitoring and storing employees' private emails and online activities have sparked debate over whether agencies can and should spy on their employees," according to Federal Times, the "one-stop news and information service for Federal Managers." That "monitoring and storing … negatively affect[s] employee morale," which peeves the unions' usual pimps in Congress as well as such sponges as "the Education Department's assistant inspector general for information technology audits and computer crime investigations." (Imagine: we not only pay for "inspector generals" at every bureaucracy, we also pay for an "inspector general for information technology audits and computer crime investigations," as well as an "assistant inspector general for information technology audits and computer crime investigations"—and, no doubt, myriads of assistants to the assistant. Talk about "swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance"! Why haven't we revolted against such horrific waste and abuse? Grow a spine, America. Geez.)
Let's end that debate right here and now: yes! Spy on them! All the time, everywhere! Do unto these busybodies and meddlers as they do unto us.
Indeed, our wish for surveillance 24/7 is close to reality: "…the lines dividing personal and work-related use of computers are sure to be blurred further as more agencies allow employees to use their personal smartphones and tablet computers for work. As that happens, employees will increasingly have to agree to usage agreements, some of which allow their agencies to install third-party software that manages security settings on those devices. In some cases, employees will have to agree to turn over their devices to respond to discovery requests."
Oh, joy! Make life so miserable for these leeches and tyrants that no one will ever again sully himself by living off and lording it over taxpayers!8:29 am on August 6, 2012 Email Becky Akers

The US International Trade Commission (ITC) is to review the ongoing patent dispute between Apple and Samsung after reassessing an earlier decision.
In October, the ITC ruled Samsung had infringed on four Apple patents, in a potentially key win for the Californian firm against its rival that could have seen numerous devices from the South Korean firm banned from sale in the US.
Samsung immediately moved to appeal the decision and the ITC confirmed in November it would carry out an initial assessment.
Now, in a document released on Wednesday evening, the ITC said it would proceed with a full review.
"Having examined the record of this investigation, including the ALJ's [administrative law judge] final ID [initial determination], the petitions for review, and the responses, the Commission has determined to review the final ID in its entirety," it said.
It also asked the judge who oversaw the original decision, Thomas Pender, to reassess two of the patents he earlier agreed had been infringed.
"The Commission remands the investigation to the ALJ with respect to certain issues related to the '922 patent and the '501 patent."
The ITC said it would not seek further briefings from the firms involved, but said it expected the review to push back the date for the cases final outcome, which had been scheduled for 27 March.
Apple said it was not commenting on the decision and Samsung had not replied to a request for comment from V3.
The legal wranglings between the two firms dominated the headlines in 2012 with cases across the world including the US, UK and Germany throwing up numerous different outcomes.

The search is on for at least one missing boater off the shores of Lake Talquin in Leon County, near Coe's Landing.
The Leon County Sheriff's Office says around 5:30 Sunday a boat was spotted partially submerged in the lake and people reported hearing screams for help.
Rescue divers entered the water around 6:30 Saturday, but have not found anything so far.
At this time authorities aren't sure how many people were on board or where they are from.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission is helping in the search.

Chicago River cruise with German, Spanish leaders just what Emanuel hoped for
By ABDON M. PALLASCH Political Reporter email@example.com May 27, 2012 12:40AM
Updated: May 29, 2012 4:43PM
When German Chancellor Angela Merkel needed to meet with Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy to discuss his plans to revive his country's economy, she chose to hold the meeting on an architectural cruise down the Chicago River during the NATO Summit.
A photo of the two European leaders — with Chicago's skyline in the background — appeared in newspapers in Spain and Germany such as El Pais and Vanguardia. Television stations in those countries aired video of the two cruising past the Trump Tower and other Chicago landmarks. A Spanish comedy show even mocked up an image of the two on an inflatable raft.
The meeting and subsequent publicity was exactly what Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Chicago tourism officials hoped would come out of the summit last week.
To complete their fantasies of a successful summit, they are now hoping any number of Spaniards and Germans will be compelled to visit the city. They hope Merkel and Rajoy and the other world leaders who came here will recommend Chicago to friends as a tourist spot. And they really dream that business owners in foreign countries will see the city as a better, cheaper, more centrally-located U.S. location to start an American branch of a business than New York.
"Some people have said to [Rajoy] that Chicago is a very cold city, but he has found it a beautiful city with very good weather and he will return to the city," said Leonardo Marcos, a press counselor for the Spanish embassy.
Rajoy told reporters that during the cruise Merkel praised the budget-tightening measures he is pushing to save Spain's economy.
"They very much enjoyed this unusual way of having a political meeting, a normal, bi-lateral meeting, said Klause Karlmatthiaes, a spokesman for the German Embassy.
As for the German media, "Many were in Chicago for the first time and said they would come back and do more. They were impressed by Chicago."
Downtown restaurants and stores saw their business plummet during the NATO Summit. But some Chicago business owners said they are keeping their fingers crossed that the long-term gains Emanuel envisions will come to pass.

The night before (Saturday), I had a bit too much. Not TOO much, just too much. About 5-6 glasses of wine over several hours. But I slept like hell and felt really crappy most of the day.
But the interesting thing is that I had NO desire to drink. But it wasn't a conscious thing most of the night. It was like some days you want tea, other days it never occurs to you. That was me last night with wine. It felt nice!
Part of me wonders from time to time if NOT drinking at all would be a good idea. Hmmmm, we'll see. It would be hard because so many people around me drink. But you know, there are others that do it….

Six things to do in Boston this summer
At Simmons, many students remain in Boston during the summer to do internships and get a head start on their careers. And in June, students from the Class of 2016 are visiting for Summer Orientation.
Summertime in Boston is truly amazing, and there are so many opportunities for students to explore. So, for those of you who will be around this summer, here are six adventurous activities to do in Boston that will make you want to spend the rest of your summers in the city.
- Canoe on the Charles River
Want a great way to get some exercise on the water and enjoy the sunshine? Paddle Boston offers inexpensive options for both canoeing and kayaking down the Charles River. You can bring a friend along and split the cost. $17/hour for a canoe and $19/hour for a kayak.
- Visit the Boston Harbor Islands
One of the truly unique things about Boston is the ability to "get away" so close to the city. The Boston Harbor Islands are an oasis of serenity just off the shore of the city. It's a quick ferry ride from Long Wharf to Spectacle Island, where you can go for a long walk, hike, and enjoy a picnic with friends. Ferry tickets are only $15 per person, and run throughout the day.
- Explore the Institute of Contemporary Art
The Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA) offers free admission on Thursday nights from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. The ICA is located in the up-and-coming Seaport district, a perfect place to enjoy a warm summer night. Check out the latest collections for free and then head over to a local restaurant to sit outside and enjoy dinner on the water.

June 5 through August 28, Frog Pond at Boston Common will have outdoor yoga classes Tuesday evenings at 6 p.m., and The Liberty Hotel will have classes every Saturday morning at 10 a.m.
- Attend a concert at the Boston Public Library
Starting June 1, the Boston Public Library (BPL) will have free concerts in their courtyard every Friday at 12:30 p.m. Music will range from jazz to classical. Visit the BPL website to see the schedule of performances.
- Observe the stars
The Judson B. Coit Observatory at Boston University welcomes you to view the sky through their telescopes and binoculars every Wednesday night starting at 8:30 p.m. during the spring and summer (weather permitting). Public Open Night at the observatory is completely free.
Simmons is fortunate to be located in a city that offers so many great activities for residents to take part in. If you're staying this summer or happen to be visiting Simmons for a campus tour or first-year student orientation, make sure to take advantage of these opportunities.

Informational: Federal Court Initial Appearance
The United States Attorney's Office announced that during a federal court session in Great Falls, on June 10, 2010, before U.S. Magistrate Judge Keith Strong, the following individual appeared:

I seem to remember a couple of months ago that Government hired another DM to look into the way contracts are tendered. Guess his services will be no longer required? But seriously, major road construction projects could now be underway except for the fact that Government will not tender until after the budget. And they assume they are better informed that the heavy Civil Association.

"Government has hired Deloitte and is paying them $4 million to find $15 million annually in savings across government," Michael said. Is she serious??? How about using the DMs and ADMs with all their education?? I don't know how Davis does it. He can give an answer without giving an answer. Does he talk like that outside of work?? Maybe he got lessons from Penashue. Govt should be able to go to tender sooner. The budget just confirms what they planned to do anyway.

Paul Davis never agrees with suggestion of improvements! All he does is try to justify the past for this PC government. Time to move him again!

Surely she didn't expect anything concrete to come out of the question. This PC administration obfuscates like no other in our history. Jeez, when confronted with something sensible they're either thinking about it or considering it. John Ottenheimer made a good living for years with responses like that. Paul Davis merely carries on what is now a tradition.

FROM THE ARCHIVE: Whitney Houston's 2000 Out Interview
By Out.com Editors
In May 2000, Out magazine published this cover story on Whitney Houston with cover and interior photography by David LaChapelle. In the story, writer Barry Walters asks Houston about the lesbian rumors that had persisted throughout her career and includes the quote: "I suppose it comes from knowing people…who are. I don't care who you sleep with. If I'm your friend, I'm your friend. I have friends who are in the community. And I'm sure that in my days of bein' out, hanging with my friends, having nothing but females around me, something's gotta be wrong with that."
"I ain't 'ho'-in," says Whitney Houston, the world's No. 1 Pop R&B goddess/potty mouth. "I ain't suckin' no dick. I ain't gettin' on my knees. Something must be wrong: I can't just really sing. I can't just be a really talented, gifted person. She's gotta be gay."
Houston's way of addressing The Question—the one that's been hovering over her all these years despite her marriage to Bobby Brown, despite motherhood, despite her multiplatinum, All-American, church-goin', Kevin Costner-co-starrin', crossed-over-to-and-from-every-which-way image—says so much more about her than her answer. An answer we're not gonna give away right now.
Yeah, this is Girlfriend's first big G-A-Y interview, something queer guys and gals from Kentucky to Kalamazoo have been craving since we first found Cissy Houston's daughter, the cousin of Dionne Warwick, calling to us across the airwaves in the mid '80s, singing about savin' all her love—for somebody. There's so much more to Houston's connection to gay culture than her much speculated upon sexual orientation, and with the release of her double-disc Greatest Hits comes an occasion to reappraise the omnipresent sister we've watched break records and survive trends since she became a near-instant superstar at age 21. "From 'How Will I Know' to 'Love Will Save the Day,' that girl's gone," says the 36-year-old singer as she sits in the lounge of Beverly Hills' Le Meridian hotel, surveying the collection's proposed list of tracks. "From 'I Will Always Love You' on, that's a woman."
That woman is in town for two special performances: One will take place at Clive Davis' pre-Grammys bash, an annual dinner party thrown by her music-biz father figure, the soon-to-be-departed head of Arista, Houston's record label. (Although Arista won't confirm Davis' departure, music-industry observers consider it a done deal.) The other is for the Grammy Award ceremony itself, where, it turns out, she'll collect a Female R&B Vocal Performance statue for "It's Not Right But It's Okay." Relaxing after rehearsals and costume fittings, the pop singer once knocked for being too white is decked out neck to toe in rapper-wear: an oversize designer-logo T-shirt, dark running pants, a drab, smocklike jacket. But covering her head is a checkered-cloth hat that reaches around her neck and hides her hair: It's what old-school queens would call a "snood." She's also sporting a wedding ring with a diamond so huge it looks fake, as if it rolled out of a gum-ball machine. This unlikely combination of street and stage gives Houston a look that's somewhere between Compton and Sunset Boulevard.
But it suits Houston's Pam Grier-meets-Gloria Swanson personality perfectly. Miss Thing is intense. Her expansive, emphatic gestures suggest both boys in the hood throwing gang signs and a preacher determined to save the souls of her flock. Her facial expressions flash and pierce with the power of a woman who can charm and do battle. Remind her of a distasteful tabloid inquiry and her eyes will zero in on yours as if you, personally, dreamed up the headline and put it on the printing press yourself. Bring her back to a happy memory and she'll share her joy with the generous familiarity of a bosom buddy. She's sweet and not a little scary, reminiscent of the drag queens with monikers like Pepper Labeija who light up the vogue-ball documentary Paris Is Burning.
Although Houston is known for this eccentric celebrity shtick, the release of The Greatest Hits may allow her to inhabit a role that blockbuster films like 1992's The Bodyguard and her platinum records haven't: She may finally become hip. The second disc of The Greatest Hits features disco-tized dance mixes of her smash singles, courtesy of such dance-floor dons as David Morales, Hex Hector, Thunderpuss, Tony Moran, and Junior Vasquez.
This major foray into dance music is part of an ongoing transformation: Faced with the impossibility of matching the astronomical 36 million copies sold internationally of The Bodyguard soundtrack, Houston has since focused on narrowing the chasm between her popularity-driven past and the hip-hop-defined present, between her goody-goody marketing profile and her actual life. The pastel-clad Whitney who twirled through that wonderfully tacky "How Will I Know" video would never have allowed herself to be caught at a Hawaii airport with pot in her pocketbook, would never have collaborated with street-bred artists like Missy Elliot, Wyclef Jean, Faith Evans, and Rodney Jerkins (as she did on 1998's comparatively gritty My Love Is Your Love), and would never have turned the party out at last year's New York City lesbian and gay Pride celebration.
Some might view Houston's career as a struggle to stay relevant, but Davis sees a natural artistic evolution. "You don't unravel yourself at the beginning," he says. "It takes years to do that. For eight years she was doing songs that fit her movie roles. She's still unraveling and showing there's no material—whether it be hip-hop, up-tempo, or ballad—that she cannot do."
Whatever the reason for her latest image overhaul, the new Whitney is clicking first and foremost with a gay audience. Top 40 radio halfheartedly accepted the jerky neo-R&B of "It's Not Right But It's Okay" (from My Love Is Your Love), but when Arista started pushing an up-tempo, circuit-ready version of the song by the tribal-house/Hi-NRG remix duo Thunderpuss, the revamped jam exploded; on MTV and VH1, the video set to the Thunderpuss version went into heavy rotation. Although Davis insists that Houston's "always been queen of the dance floor," she's never had a club record this huge or this homo. "The last time that a remix was more popular than the original version was Everything But the Girl's 'Missing,'" notes Thunderpuss' Barry Harris proudly. "We scrapped everything but the vocal, put her ad-libs in the forefront, and rethought the entire song."
This latest hit, urgent and urbane, finds Houston a long way, both musically and emotionally, from her naïve if focused beginnings. "I was singing, makin' money—an independent woman," Houston recalls of the explosive success of her 1985 debut, Whitney Houston, which held the record for the best-selling solo female debut until Alanis Morisette came along. "I had come out of an all-girls academy, signed a contract, traveled the world—I didn't know about pressure. I just knew what I had to do. [Snaps her fingers.] What I wanted from it. [Snap!] Now there's pressure. Now I got a kid. I gotta try to keep her head together. I gotta nurture this soul." Houston's referring to Bobbi Kristina, her seven-year-old daughter with husband Bobby Brown, ex-New Edition singer and solo bad-boy who's shared many a tabloid headline with his wife.

Vaccine Researcher Andrew Wakefield Stripped of License in U.K.
Controversial vaccine researcher Dr. Andrew Wakefield has been stripped of his medical license in the U.K., sparking international headlines and, predictably, riling the anti-vaccine crowd.
From the BBC News story:
The GMC ruled in January he had acted "dishonestly and irresponsibly" in conducting his research, but under its procedures the sanctions are made at a later date.
The case did not investigate whether Dr Wakefield's findings were right or wrong, instead it focused on the methods of research.
During the two-and-a-half-year case, the longest in GMC history, he was accused of carrying out invasive tests on vulnerable children which were against their best interests.
For those of you who haven't been following the Wakefield saga, he's been called the "father of the modern anti-vaccine movement." The British gastroenterologist in 1998 published now-discredited research suggesting a link between the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine and autism. In the U.K., where his work was highly publicized, vaccination rates plummeted and children contracted serious, preventable childhood diseases. He now runs an autism center in Texas, according to this TimesOnline story.
For more, check out the Respectful Insolence blog here and Wakefield's response here.

It's been a while...
This has eaten away most of my educational time. What topic would you like to hear about if I can buy the time to do it?
4 comments:
I have particularly enjoyed your stories of working on actual game design issues. As both a WoW player and a (UI) designer, those stories are quite interesting. Not knowing game design well enough, I couldn't suggest specific topics, so I'm just mentioning the type of posts of yours that I'd like to read more of.ReplyDelete
It certainly has been awhile, that's okay though!ReplyDelete
I'd personally really enjoy hearing about the transition from boss designer to whatever it is exactly you do at Riot (as far as Game Systems Designer goes it leaves a lot to be explained, more so when you consider that Riot has a track record that lets their employees help in other areas)
The Up's the Down's the interesting and the terrible!
All in all I'm just excited to read some more haha.
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
I'd love to hear your thought process as you work on something, like step by step as you do things, and how you approach a problem. Like more general work process than what you actually work on.ReplyDelete

After an extensive review of curricula offered by a number of educational publishers, Providence Public School District in Providence, RI, has opted to purchase four high school mathematics programs from New York-based Glencoe/McGraw-Hill. The courses include Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, and Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications.
Paula Shannon, director of K-12 teaching and learning PPSD, said that approximately 50 high school mathematics teachers in the district analyzed several research-based math programs and found that the Glencoe series best aligned to the Rhode Island Grade Span Expectations.
"As the district develops a core mathematics curriculum, it is imperative that we align the curriculum with research-based tools to support teachers in the delivery of rigorous mathematics instruction to all students," Shannon said.
The Rhode Island district plans to implement staff development training for its teachers to effectively integrate the programs in Providence classrooms.

Apalachee Bay
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with Apalachicola Bay.
Apalachee Bay is a bay in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico occupying an indentation of the Florida coast to the west of where the Florida peninsula joins the United States mainland. It is bordered by Taylor, Jefferson, Wakulla and Franklin counties. The Aucilla, Econfina, St. Marks and Ochlockonee rivers drain into the bay. It is named for the Apalachee tribe which lived between the Aucilla and Ochlockonee rivers until the 18th century. Most of the bay's coast is the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge.

Blood pressure measures the force of blood against your artery walls. When it's consistently high, it can weaken your blood vessels and significantly increase your risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney failure.
"It's called the silent killer," says Cleaves Bennett, M.D., a retired professor of medicine at UCLA and the author of In 12 Weeks You Can Control Your High Blood Pressure Without Drugs. Even though you don't feel it, "what's happening when your blood pressure is up is the tiny little arteries that feed your tissue close off, first by the thousands and then by the millions, so all parts of your body are losing blood supply."

NMB was established in 1987 as a niche energy broker and has expanded over the years into the marine, non-marine and reinsurance disciplines. We have established a reputation for professionalism and service delivery in our chosen fields. We believe in specialist focus, motivation, relationships and sheer hard work.
During our lifetime, we have grown organically, providing continuity and expertise in our specialist areas. We are proud to have clients who have been with us since our formation. Our philosophy is to foster and build long-term relationships using balanced service teams that do not change from year to year. We believe this is an attractive model for clients who want bespoke insurance, independent thought, unbiased advice, personal commitment and consistent service from dedicated people.
Acquisition of NMB by CGSC Group
NMB has been in negotiations with the CGSC Group in recent months for the sale of the company to CGSC. On Friday 20 September 2013 contracts were exchanged and final completion took place on 10 October 2013 following receipt of formal approval from the UK Financial Conduct Authority.
Click here for the Press Releases of 11 October and 23 September.
"I believe that the combination of the businesses will be good for our staff and, most importantly, that it will enhance our offering to our clients to whom we will continue to offer independent service: like us, CGSC is an independent broker focused on the wholesale and reinsurance sectors with no retail presence in the U.S. For our clients, some of whom have been with us for many years, it will be 'business as usual'; they will continue to receive the same excellent service from the same people. Where appropriate, we will combine business lines to enhance our offering and develop the business, with NMB as CGSC's specialist broker for energy and related classes." – Gordon Newman

The Hawaii Natural Energy Institute (HNEI) has a long history of research and development in ocean resources technology. Two current programs involve: 1) exploring the energy potential of methane hydrates found on the ocean floor, and 2) the establishment of the Hawaii National Renewable Marine Energy Center.
Methane Hydrates: Methane hydrates [1], vast hydrocarbon deposits found in deep waters, are being studied as a potential new energy resource. Hydrate research [2] is underway, and international collaborations have been established with researchers in Japan, Korea, and Norway. HNEI researchers have constructed an experimental facility, named the Ocean Resources and Applications Laboratory [3], to conduct studies of methane hydrate stability. For more information on this work, see the Methane Hydrates Overview [4] section of our website.
HNEI was selected by the US Department of Energy to establish one of only two National Marine Renewable Energy Centers. The Hawaii National Marine Renewable Energy Center was established to facilitate commercialization of Wave Energy Conversion devices and to accelerate development and testing of Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) technologies. For details about OTEC, see the Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion Overview [5] section of our website. The Center has a separate website located at: http://hinmrec.hnei.hawaii.edu/ [6].
Earlier work relating to ocean resources included the curbing of greenhouse gases via carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration. HNEI was a major partner in a landmark carbon dioxide ocean sequestration [7] field experiment that provided critical data on changes to sea water chemistry in the deep ocean and the effects on benthic biota resulting from CO2 injection.
