Michael Grynbaum, the most poetic scribe of subterranean infrastructure since Victor Hugo, reports for The New York Times today that the MTA is changing its subway map:
Next month, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority will unveil a resized, recolored and simplified edition of the well-known map, its first overhaul in more than a decade.
Manhattan will become taller, bulkier and 30 percent wider, to better display its spaghetti of subway lines. Staten Island, meanwhile, will shrink by half. The spreadsheetlike "service guide," along the map's bottom border, will be eliminated, and the other three boroughs will grow to fill the space.
Spaghetti! The guy's a genius.
Grynbaum also documents the discontent surrounding the old map, which dates back to 1979. The clamor for change has recently made itself manifest in the form of complaints and suggestions by online map enthusiasts and mobile-device application designers. "The authority now concedes that the map became overcrowded," writes Grynbaum in a dramatic one-sentence paragraph.
There's also a neat interactive feature showing how the map has changed over time alongside the new design. The map is due for release next month, so there's plenty of time to get some studying in.
Nice juxtaposition by Adam over at Beowulfe.com.
In a conference call to contributors yesterday, True/Slant founder and chief product officer Lewis Dvorkin gave more details about what the future holds for the site and its 300-plus contributors, now that it has been purchased by Forbes. Though Dvorkin said True/Slant business would continue as usual in the month of June, this Fishie and True/Slant blogger sat in on the conversation, and came away with the obvious conclusion that huge changes are on the way.
"Forbes has a mission, Forbes has a voice and that's not going to change," Dvorkin said, in perhaps the most revealing quote of the phone conference.
Reading between the lines, one can assume it's True/Slant's business and content delivery model — niche-targeted content and incentive-based pay, compensating writers who draw more eyeballs — that interested Forbes, not necessarily the content itself. Which is too bad. True/Slant gave its contributors a fairly high profile online home for all kinds of alternative points of view. Though Dvorkin insisted Forbes was adamant about widely expanding its blogging network, one has to wonder whether an increased number of writers will translate into an actual diversity of content.
Time will tell.
In the meanwhile, Dvorkin said he would take the month of June to figure out how exactly the blending of True/Slant and Forbes will happen. He encouraged writers to pitch new niche-targeted blogs to the True/Slant team for consideration at Forbes.

Azi Paybarah, politics writer for the New York Observer, has confirmed with FishbowlNY that he is leaving the salmon-colored weekly to join up with WNYC.
This week, Paybarah is apparently doing double duty between the Observer and WNYC.org; here's his Observer post from today about Andrew Cuomo's gubernatorial campaign, and here's his Tuesday WNYC post on the 2010 New York state democratic convention.
The list of departures from the Observer continues to grow, and the politics desk is looking especially thin. Editor Katharine Jose took off last week to join ex-Observer editors Tom McGeveran and Josh Benson at their new Web project, Capital. In recent months, quite a few other Observers have left their posts, including: managing editor Joe Pompeo, managing editor of digital content Tyler Thoreson and reporter Gillian Reagan (who recently left The Business Insider to also join Capital).
But the old revolving door goes both ways; The Observer is apparently hiring to fill Paybarah's spot.
The revolving door keeps spinning in the early months of the Stefano Tonchi era at W. Women's Wear Daily reports that Tonchi has brought Joseph Logan on board as design director. Says WWD:
Logan, 38, succeeds W's longtime group design director, Edward Leida, who was shown the door soon after Tonchi came into power. Logan — who has also worked at French Vogue and Arena Homme Plus — will report to W's new creative director, Jody Quon. In a conversation with Tonchi and Quon, Logan told WWD, "What we've talked about is making something extremely refined and something in line with, or maybe built around, the interests of the first W that existed under Mr. Fairchild."
In another editorial changeup, 83-year-old John Fairchild will no longer be penning his society column under the pseudonym Countess Louise J. Esterhazy, the New York Post reports.
Frank DiGiacomo will be returning to his former beat as he takes over the Daily News' gossip column. DiGiacomo, who contributes to Vanity Fair and has formerly covered celebrity and entertainment gossip for Page Six, is taking over the Gatecrasher column as the section's current writer, Amanda Sidman, moves on to become a features writer at the paper.
DiGiacomo's hire comes in in the wake of fellow gossip scribe George Rush's decision to take the buyout package offered to Daily News staffers. In fact, DiGiacomo co-edited Page Six with Rush's wife, fellow Daily News columnist Joanna Molloy, who most recently co-wrote Rush & Molloy before her husband's departure.
Journalists tend to write only about the military as serving their country and losing their lives. So in the interest of the dreaded "naval gazing" by the press above is a picture of the Journalists Memorial at the Newseum in Washington DC.
[P]ays tribute to reporters, photographers and broadcasters who have died reporting the news. The names of 2,007 individuals from around the world are etched on the glass panels of the soaring, two-story structure.
And just in the last 24 hours news of reporter Anibal Archila died from a volcanic eruption in Guatemala.
Our thanks to all who serve in the name of telling the story.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Cell Phones Holiday Gift Guide 2010
Motorola DROID X
Honestly, who wouldn't like to enjoy the awesomeness of the DROID X, probably the most pumped-up device in Verizon's Android squad. This Android 2.2 smartphone can give you lots of cool features like an enormous 4.3" screen and super-fast performance, combined with a pretty good 8MP camera. Add to that its full Flash Player 10.1 support for desktop-like internet browsing, and you've got an all-round great package for hardcore users.
Samsung Fascinate
Samsung's Galaxy S line is quickly gaining momentum, and Verizon's Fascinate is a wonderful example for the smartphone's top of the line capabilities. Not only does it sport a larger than life 4-inch Super AMOLED screen, along with a pretty decent 5MP camera with HD video recording, but it also has a powerful Hummingbird chipset that's reportedly faster than a real hummingbird.
Motorola DROID PRO
Forgive us for suggesting yet another Android phone, but we just couldn't help but include the just-released, business-centric DROID PRO, which is packing both a 3.1" touchscreen and a front-facing QWERTY keyboard, mixed up with all the wonders of the Froyo software. What's also important though is that in terms of design, the Motorola DROID PRO surely makes a statement, as it clearly stands out from the rest of the smartphone crop in Verizon's catalog. Reserved for the good businessperson in the family.
RIM BlackBerry Curve 3G
While we are on the topic of business, here's another intriguing device - the Curve 3G, which is a pretty decent smartphone for those users camping alongside BlackBerry. In addition to its pretty good overall functionality, of course, it features a wonderful QWERTY keyboard that would be perfect for lots of messages and emails. Besides, the handset is updateable to BlackBerry OS 6, so it easily makes for one future-proof present.
Casio G'zOne Ravine
Finally, if it's a more straightforward and simple device that you're looking for, then we would recommend that you take a look at the Casio G'zOne Ravine - a rugged flip phone that will withstand some beating, plus it has some additional goodies, such as GPS, microSDHC slot for lots of music and a 3.2MP camera with flash.
These are some pretty exciting phones that Verizon can offer its users, but the world doesn't end with Big Red. Next stop – AT&T!

Wait, you gave the C7 the nod, but not the N8??? Seriously? The camera wasn't worth it to you? Damn.
2. deferom (Posts: 2; Member since: 15 Nov 2010)
I was disappointed not to see the Motorola Flipout on the AT&T list. It's a capable yet affordable Android phone.
And no HTC EVO 4G? It's Sprint's best phone.
3. spg2010 (Posts: 2; Member since: 10 Nov 2010)
For T-Mobile I'd have suggested the HTC MyTouch 4G hands down. It's definitely by far the best phone that T-mobile has right now and I would even say better than all the other phones out there at this time except maybe the Samsung Epic 4G. But I give the MyTouch 4G the edge due to Wifi-Calling.

to gift a prepaid cellphone this holiday season is a great way to go, a great present for a friend or loved one. I'm getting one for my little sister, her first cellphone,and I'm keeping an eye for Black Friday sales, I'm sure Tracfone will have great promotions for the holidays, they always have. Anyone knows about any good sales on prepaids?
5. MiriAlgood (unregistered)
@BlakeDaze what kind off phone are you searching for? I heard that Sear will be having a cool sale on Tracfone for $15 on a samsng and that's a great starter phone for a kid, also kmart will be having a good deal on motorolas for 50% off on Net 10, they are all prepaid and good choices. Happy Shopping!
6. Jonathan (Posts: 1; Member since: 21 Nov 2010)
Why??? The Blackberry is on the list. I am really agree if Apple Iphone 4, Motorola Droid and Samsung Phone are on the list. It's really a bias choice. Why Google Nexus One, Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 and Nokia N8 are not in the list??? Blackberry advantage over the 3 other phone I list out are only Blackberry conact and push e-mail. What a bias!!!!!!!!!
7. Robin7 (unregistered)
Don't you Phone Arena management and developers care a bit for the Asian countries..
That's why I love GSM Arena much more than this silly PhoneArena..
Such a bad holiday gift guide... how did you categorize ????
Just have a look at the Holiday Guide from GSM Arena and learn which categories matter to the wider world..

SHOREWOOD, Ill.
State police and FBI agents ended their five-day search for Stacy Peterson at a Shorewood forest preserve without finding her body, officials said.
The ongoing search has raised speculation that maybe investigators have found new clues in the case. But officials have only said they are checking old leads and training on their search techniques.
Earlier in the week they used Springer Spaniels trained as cadaver dogs capable of detecting remains up to a decade old.
The 400-acre Hammel Woods was also searched shortly after Stacy Peterson turned up missing.
Stacy, the fourth wife of former Bolingbrook cop Drew Peterson, disappeared in October of 2007.
She hasn't been seen in more than five years. Peterson was recently convicted of killing his third wife, Kathleen Savio.

One summer during college I was stringing together temp jobs in order to make money so that I could afford to go out with my friends at night and play "Star Trek" pinball. (I would have preferred, of course, to spend my summer developing my idea for a "group couponing" website, but as the summer in question predated widespread adoption of the Internet, the decision was out of my hands.)
These were super-boring temp jobs, involving things like data-entering anonymous "secret shopper" surveys for Jersey Subs, filing papers alphabetically, and going through medical bills with a red pen to make sure that the prices didn't exceed prescribed rates. (The last was the worst, as their computer system ran on OS/2, which some genius decided should have chess rather than Minesweeper, which made it very difficult to blow off steam after decimating a particularly tough bill, which is why I originally took up amphetamines.)
At some point the temp work simply dried up, possibly because there were no more medical bills, possibly because no one was willing to eat at Jersey Subs anymore, possibly because of the amphetamines. And so my dad arranged it that I could work for a friend of his who owned a warehouse of surplus metal parts.
What were these metal parts? I have no idea. They were large and heavy and in bins on pallets, and it's possible they were used to repair trains, or in air conditioning, or as weapons. They came in various shapes and sizes and weights (heavy *and* very heavy), and every day orders would pour into the warehouse that some company wanted 137 of the metal pieces from bin A17. My job, then, was to retrieve bin A17 (which involved a forklift, which was sort of cool, except that I never got the hang of rear-wheel steering and always ended up crashing into things) and get an empty pallet and then manually choose 137 of the least-rusty metal pieces from bin A17 and pile them onto the empty pallet, all the while counting (and then double-counting) to make sure that there were indeed exactly 137 of them. Then I'd put the bin back and move on to the next order of 94 metal pieces from bin C29, and so on, and so forth.
(To this day, it is tough for me to imagine a job that is a worse mismatch for my aptitudes and preferences, except possibly for building model histories of men's shoes.)
At the end of each day I would collect my pay (which was itself in non-descript metal pieces) and go home and take painkillers and try to scrub all the fine metal grit off my skin and try to cough all the fine metal grit out of my lungs and then cry myself to sleep and have nightmares about counting metal pieces. All of which, quite obviously, left no time for "Star Trek" pinball.
And so after a week, over the vociferous objections of my parents, who insisted that the metal pieces I was earning were likely to represent the difference between success and failure in life, I quit. Accordingly, I have blamed the various subsequent failures in my life on the metal pieces that never were.
So it stood until this week, when Hilary Rosen (who, for reasons inexplicable to me, is still allowed to show her face in public after her stint running the RIAA) made some crack disparaging Mitt Romney's wife for being a stay-at-home mom. Tactically this was moronic, as everyone knows plenty of admirable stay-at-home moms, and also everyone knows that the most fruitful line of attack on Mitt Romney's wife is that she married Mitt Romney, and let's see how her "the angel Moroni pointed a shotgun at us and said we had to" excuse plays in the court of public opinion.
Which means that everyone and his brother is rushing to throw Hilary Rosen under one of a variety of buses. Bill Donohue, for instance, wants to throw her under some sort of "lesbian parent" bus, which I'm pretty sure runs on biodiesel, and I would love to throw her under the "she ran the RIAA, which means that nothing she says should ever be listened to by anyone ever" bus, but most people are focusing on the old "parenting is the hardest job there is!" bus.
It turns out, though, that I'm a parent, and so I happen to know that PARENTING IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE HARDEST JOB THERE IS. Metal piece warehouse was a harder job. Burger King was a harder job. Even MATH FREAKING GRAD SCHOOL was a harder job. (As some versions of the bus insist that only mothering is the hardest job, I double-checked with Ganga, and she agrees with my analysis.)
That's not to say that parenting isn't work. It is, and occasionally it's even very unpleasant work, like when it's 3am and the baby won't sleep and will scream if you don't rock her, and you still haven't prepared your slides for your 8am meeting with Hilary Rosen to present your new plan for permanently ruining the lives of music-downloading teenagers, and all you want to do is sleep and use your dreams to figure out a way to pretend like you care about "artists". Or when she poops on you. (The baby, not Hilary Rosen, although that also sucks.) Or when you're trying to write a blog post making fun of Hilary Rosen and the baby won't stop screaming in your ear and banging on your keywinevsoivdkdsvl
But parenting is also a lot of fun. It's a huge joy when you finally teach your kid how to Chicken Dance, or when she learns to swear, or the first time she asks you "please can you read me one more chapter before bed, daddy?" of Atlas Shrugged. No metal part ever even asked me about The Fountainhead!
I recognize that it's uncharacteristic of me to stake out the middle ground like this, but I guess having a kid has been a deeply moderating influence and has taught me the value of compromise. So can't we all just agree that parenting is nowhere near as hard as sorting and lifting and counting metal parts, that Hilary Rosen has no place in polite society, and that babies love Atlas Shrugged?

Cramer on Retirement: Individual Stocks Are Right for Your 401(k)
(Editor's note: This is the second in a series of weekly columns on retirement by Jim Cramer, founder of TheStreet , and Wally Konrad, former senior editor for Smart Money magazine. To read the first installment, click here.)
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Say you've become enamored with an Internet stock that's bound to benefit from the Facebook (FB) frenzy.
Or maybe you want to add to your holdings of Walt Disney (DIS) after the great numbers it just put out.
Now say you want to stash these picks in your 401(k) account, convinced they'll give your nest egg the boost it needs.Chances are, you're out of luck. That's because only a fraction of employers let workers pick the investments they want. Instead, most employers give you a limited list of 10 to 20 funds -- many of them with limited performance to match -- usually in just one fund family. A handful of enlightened employers offer what's called a self-directed brokerage window within their 401(k)s. With this tool, employees can buy mutual funds outside the company's picks, ETFs, stocks, bonds and just about any other investment not offered in their company's menu. In other words, a brokerage window opens up hundreds, even thousands, of choices to a 401(k) investor. > > Funds That Win With High-Quality Bonds But only about one in five employers surveyed offered a brokerage window, according to a 2009 study by Aon/Hewitt. Fidelity, a leading 401(k) provider, says that just 9% of the 20,000 employers it serves offer brokerage windows, and of those, 72% offer the ability to purchase individual stocks. Employers' resistance probably stems from good intentions, but it's still misguided. Afraid the average 401(k) holder will trade too much and squander his or her nest egg, big companies want to protect investors from themselves. Some critics have called picking stocks in 401(k)s akin to putting a loaded gun in investors hands or letting the inmates run the asylum. I don't agree. And I certainly don't think you're crazy or dangerous if you're looking for maximum returns and wider diversification via individual stock picks in your retirement account. The truth is, 401(k) investors don't become trigger-happy traders the minute they have a brokerage option. According to research by Charles Schwab, the average number of trades the brokerage firm sees among 401(k) investors it serves is only 5.2 per year.

All it takes is a little imagination and suddenly you have your very own preschool pumpkin patch! The children explored the pumpkin patch with a few orange pom-poms and green construction paper. The children used clothespins to pick the pumpkins from their patch and then put them in their basket! I thought it was interesting […]

UFC Jon Jones News Preview
After seeing Jon Jones' pre-training camp picture, it's risk-free to state the UFC light abundant champ has a bunch of job to do in preparation for Alexander Gustafsson when they satisfy in the Octagon Sept. 21 in Toronto.
Jones, that is understood for stuffing on pounds between camps, tweeted an image of himself on Monday positioning with a large part of flab on his waistline and a huge grin on his face. The photo has actually generated some rather entertaining responses from Jones' fans, consisting of UFC middleweight Derek Brunson.
In 2 months, Jones will certainly be protecting the light heavyweight title against Gustafsson at UFC 165, and the MMA world is already on edge after Anderson Silva's surprising loss– his very first in the UFC– to Chris Weidman at UFC 162 earlier this month.
Jones' tweet will likely raise eyebrows and draw inquiries of whether he's taking Gustafsson seriously.
Given that his reduction to Phil Davis back in April 2010, Gustafsson has actually rebounded to take the UFC light abundant department by storm. He is presently using a six-fight gain touch, going over an uneven consentaneous decision victory over former UFC champ Mauricio "Shogun" Rua.
Jones being so unfit could have something to do with remaining issues from the gruesome toe trauma he endured in his UFC 159 draw Chael Sonnen. Throughout a press conference for UFC 165, Jones admitted that his toe wasn't totally recovered, and he still should use a boxing boot while training to limit any sort of chances of a drawback.
But will Jones remain real to his word?
The young champ still has a few months to get everything in order, but whether that will be enough time stays to be seen.

Question: I admit to being one of those who, for the last season or two, watched ER solely out of habit. However, I am psyched at the prospect of John Stamos being a regular cast member next season, and I am eagerly awaiting next season. Do you expect that the casting of John will pull the show out of its "funk" and re-entice some of the viewers who think it's jumped the shark?
Answer: It can't hurt. I know I was sorely disappointed when ABC's inexplicable renewal (to little effect) of Jake in Progress kept him off the show during a season that could have really used him. I just hope he doesn't succumb to the same ailment that has befallen so many promising actors (Linda Cardellini, Parminder Nagra, Shane West, Kristen Johnston) who join the cast and are almost immediately sapped of appealing personality traits.
Coming to ER's defense is Phil S., who writes: "I'm tired of people bashing shows just because they've been on the air for a while. If anybody actually sat down and watched ER

John Stamos, who guested on ER during November sweeps — prior, that is, to the blink-and-you-missed-it mid-season return of ABC's Jake in Progress — is set to join NBC's long-running medical drama as a series regular this fall, says the Hollywood Reporter. Stamos will reprise his role of Tony Gates, a flirty paramedic who also is a med student and a Gulf War veteran.

Question: Has In Justice been canceled? I just read on the entertainment news page that Jason O'Mara has been cast in a new show. I quite like In Justice. It's perfect for Friday night, and it would be a shame if ABC didn't give it more of a chance.
Answer: When stars of "on the bubble" shows like In Justice take roles in pilots for the following season, these new roles are in what's called "second position." In other words, if In Justice gets renewed (which seems unlikely, though it's not dead quite yet), he'd have to stay with his previous show and they'd have to recast his new role or otherwise rework that pilot. Kind of like what happened to John Stamos when Jake in Progress got a pickup (what a mistake) and ER's producers had to rethink the cast-regular role they had planned for him ...

I don't know very much about keeping an online journal but I imagine it will be a learning curve, a place I can write anything that is currently troubling me or anything that is annoying me which at the moment is quite a bit. I wonder about the state of apathy that hangs over the heads of most inhabitants of the world, I wonder about life in general, if there is any future for the human race and I wonder about the sort of people that spend hours upon hours writing and drawing pictures and sending them to various famous people. Do they have such empty pitiful lives that there is no other outlet for their creative talents, for I'm not denying many of these people are trully great artists.

notNeutral 1470916 Chicago City Plate
Product Description
Chicago City Plate
The Columbian Exposition was more than just a World's Fair: it inspired a sense of wonder and put Chicago on the cultural map. It also served to show the world that the city had risen from the ashes of the Great Chicago Fire, which had destroyed much of the city in 1871. The city has since became a breeding ground for great architecture. With a progressive mayor that has championed sustainable practices and subsidized 'green' projects during his tenure, Chicago continues to embrace innovation.
These porcelain plates measure 12" across, with each city's downtown core printed on a black background. Key buildings are represented with persimmon icons, while rivers and public spaces are shown in blue and green.
- Dishwasher safe
- Boxed with Printed Key

Coconut Custard
Submitted by Alicia on March 9, 2007 - 3:29pm
I got this recipe from one of Gabriel Cousen's books. It's especially delicious with banana chips!
Pulp of 4 young coconuts
¼ cup coconut water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Blend ingredients.
3 reponses to "Coconut Custard"
Submitted by Branwyn32 on September 21, 2008 - 6:53pm.
I just made this without using any proportions, just threw stuff in the food processor til I got a good consistency. I drizzled a tiiiiiny bit of agave in and processed it down. I didn't let it go till it was completely smooth...and omg, it tastes EXACTLY like rice pudding, only better! Yum!
Submitted by damzlfly on March 23, 2007 - 7:58pm.
I made this tonight! I had to double up on the coconut water to achieve the desired consistency - but I'm also using a crappy blender. It tastes nice and light...could use a TAD more vanilla, otherwise its yummy.

The Rules of Work
The Unspoken Truth About Getting Ahead in Business
FT Prentice Hall, 2005 more...
Category: Career & Self-Development
In this summary, you will learn
- Rules that will help you work your way to the top
- Why just knowing the rules is no substitute for hard work and ability
- How to get the inside information you need to master your office's unwritten rules of conduct
- How to target the job you want and get it
|Rating more...
Why you should read The Rules of Work
Shortly after author Richard Templar started his career, a boss whom he despised relegated him to the menial job of taking the CEO his morning coffee. Templar used this assignment as an opportunity to chat with the CEO for five minutes each day. One day Templar recommended that the CEO assign his unpopular boss elsewhere in the company. Soon the hated boss was gone, and Templar had learned his first lesson about taking advantage of the unwritten rules of the office. Books like this tend to come across as reiterations of Machiavelli's The Prince, promoting stratagems that work only if you're willing to behave like a conniving finalist on Survivor. Yet, this book is actually useable and it has an interesting twist: Templar says it's only for those who are willing to work harder than everyone else. He writes, "These rules are not for...posers. They are for the really industrious, the talented, the hardworking, the naturally gifted, those who are prepared to put in some effort and burn some oil." Templar's rules range from obvious to delightfully devious. He upholds ethical boundaries, however, and he's secure enough to lampoon himself to make a point. getAbstract.com recommends this fun, useful compendium to anyone who could use an official rulebook, spiced up with a little attitude, for the game of office politics.

Miss Barnes
I'm Miss Barnes, The truancy officer of www.montrose-academy.com. My methods are very firm when dealing with men who behave like naughty boys. Bare bottom caning's are my method of correction and I do not hold back when laying on the cane.
When reporting to me, you will confess the exact amount of days you have committed truant on, or the crime you have committed. You will be told to bend over and grip the box. I will pull down your pants and bare your bottom. If you have been playing truant, I will administer 12 strokes for the crime then 6 for every day absent. If you have committed another infraction I will cane your bare bottom accordingly. During your punishment you are not permitted to move. If you do I will just start the punishment again.
There are no safe words when I am caning. If you are bent over being caned by me I will not stop until the punishment is complete.
Did your headmistress give you a safe word at school?
No...Nor will I.
Maybe, you need to visit the strict adult babysitter! The one who's knee you always wanted to be put across but never had the nerve to ask her. I'm one sitter that delights in putting grown men across my knee and slippering their bare bottoms for their wrong doings.
I am available on a limited basis for private one to one discipline sessions as either an adult school truant officer or adult baby sitter.
Please note. I require a deposit for all sessions to avoid time wasters. I don't negotiate on this.
I can be contacted through email@example.com
This lady is a member of staff on www.montrose-academy.com and www.strictmiss.com. I've been punished by her regularly for the past few years and she very good.

Linux newbie guide to installation of LAMP on Ubuntu!!!
The acronym LAMP refers to a set of free software programs commonly used together to run dynamic Web sites or servers Linux, the operating system; Apache, the Web server; MySQL, the database management system (or database server) and Perl, PHP, and/or Python, scripting languages. The LAMP stack is a very popular setup and many websites run on it. Best of all, all four of the tools in the stack are free and open source and really easy to get started with.
For this tutorial, I'm going to be showing you how to install LAMP on Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope), but the process is very similar for other Linux distributions too.
All the stuff you need is pre-loaded into Ubuntu's software repositories, and it's really simple to install everything you need. If you're doing a new install, you may want to take a look at the server edition of Ubuntu as it allows for a pre-configured profile that you can pick at install time.
You need to install the following packages:
- apache2
- php5-mysql
- libapache2-mod-php5
- mysql-server
Install Apache
sudo apt-get install apache2
Testing HTTP Server by open a web browser and enter http://localhost
Install PHP5
sudo apt-get install php5 libapache2-mod-php5
Stop/Restart Apache
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Test the installation
sudo gedit /var/www/testphp.php
Insert this following line into testphp.php file.
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
Save this new file.
Open a web browser and enter http://localhost/testphp.php
Be sure to remove the file afterwards, as it may pose a security risk.
sudo rm /var/www/testphp.php
Install MySQL Server
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
MySQL initially only allows connections from the localhost (127.0.0.1). We'll need to remove that restriction if you wish to make it accessible to everyone on the internet. Open the file /etc/mysql/my.cnf
gksudo gedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf
Find the line bind-address = 127.0.0.1 and comment it out then save the file.
MySQL comes with no root password as default. This is a huge security risk. You'll need to set one. So that the local computer gets root access as well, you'll need to set a password for that too. The local-machine-name is the name of the computer you're working on.
mysqladmin -u root password <newpassword>
mysqladmin -h root@local-machine-name -u root -p password <newpassword>
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart
MySQL Administrator
Install MySQL Administrator
sudo apt-get install mysql-admin
Refresh Gnome Panel
killall gnome-panel
Run MySQL Administrator
Applications -> System Tools -> MySQL Administrator
MySQL for Apache HTTP Server
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql phpmyadmin
To get PHP to work with MySQL, open the php.ini file
gksudo gedit /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
You'll need to uncomment the ";extension=mysql.so" line so that it looks like this
Restart Apache
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
That's pretty much all the configuration you need to do, so you can now grab any web applications you want and install them.
Cheers :)

Baltimore Felon Exiled to 35 Years in Prison for Drug and Gun Offenses
Baltimore, Maryland - U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz sentenced Douglas Roseby, age 47, of Baltimore, today to 35 years in prison followed by eight years of supervised release for possession with intent to distribute cocaine base and heroin, possession of a gun to further a drug trafficking crime and possession of a gun by a convicted felon. Judge Motz enhanced Roseby's sentence upon finding that he was both a career offender and an armed career criminal based on two previous convictions for drug offenses.
United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein; Special Agent in Charge Theresa R. Stoop of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives - Baltimore Field Division; Baltimore City State's Attorney Patricia C. Jessamy; and Baltimore Police Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld III announced the sentence.
According to evidence presented at trial, Baltimore Police officers searched Roseby's residence on November 20, 2009 and seized: gelatin capsules of heroin weighing 24.65 grams; plastic bags containing empty gelatin capsules; 33 zip lock bags of cocaine base weighing 10.91 grams; two digital scales; hundreds of empty zip lock bags; $550; a gun box for a .25 semiautomatic FIE handgun containing a box of 44 live Winchester .25 caliber semi automatic cartridges; and a loaded .25 caliber FIE handgun. Roseby was on parole for a felony drug conviction and advised officers in an interview that he obtained the drugs and gun from his drug supplier, who had given him the gun for protection.
Mr. Rosenstein commended Assistant U.S. Attorneys Paul E. Budlow and Rachel M. Yasser, who prosecuted the case.

Chelsey is also the First Female Champion at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway! Please help us in congratulating the #13 and her team. Once again we sincerely apologize and wish the #13 team a great 2014 season!

LONDON – Texas Ex Sanya Richards-Ross and current Longhorn Allison Peter began their London 2012 journeys Friday on the first day of track & field competition at Olympic Stadium with Richards-Ross moving on in the women's 400m dash. Competing in the opening round of the first of her two individual events, Richards-Ross breezed through her first-round 400m heat, crossing the finish line first in 51.78 to advance to Saturday's semifinals. Richards-Ross was able to distance herself on the final turn from the rest of the competitors in the fourth heat. She slowed considerably down the stretch and still beat closest contender Carol Rodriguez of PuertoRico by four-tenths of a second. "It felt good," said Richards-Ross of her first-round victory. "My coach and I wanted to come out in the first 200, control the turn and come in as easy as possible to conserve energy. I did that and I feel good." Fellow Americans Francena McCorory and DeeDee Trotter also won their heats to automatically advance. Complete 400m results from the opening round can be found here. The 400m semifinals will take place on Saturday at 2:05 p.m. Central with Richards-Ross racing in the first of three heats as the Longhorns' lone competitor on the day. The top eight will advance to Sunday's final at 3:10 p.m. On the heels of Sunday's conclusion to the 400m will be Richards-Ross' second individual event, the 200m. Shequalified third for the U.S. out of an extremely competitive field at the Olympic Trials in June, becoming the first American woman to advance to theOlympics in both the 400m and the 200m since Valerie Brisco-Hooks accomplished the feat at the Los Angeles Games in 1984. The 200m begins Monday, Aug. 6. Richards-Ross is also slated to compete for the United States in the 4x400m relay, which will be run Aug. 10-11. Also racing Friday was Allison Peter in the 100m. After qualifying on behalf of the U.S. Virgin Islands with an Olympic 'A' standard time in the event, Peter bypassed the morning preliminary round and ran in the fifth of seven evening first-round heats. She crossed the finish line in 11.41 for seventh in her heat and finished tied for 32nd overall. Although not advancing in the 100m, Peter will join Richards-Ross and Longhorn teammate Christy Udoh (Nigeria) in the200m next week. Results for the 100m preliminary and first round heats can be found by clicking here.

The kids had fun with it but you definitely need an electric pump. It took a lot of work and time to inflate by hand! Also, the side that shoots water over the slide kept rolling backwards and shooting the water off into the grass so someone had to hold it in position which was annoying to all. Maybe it wasn't inflated enough to hold the correct position - I'm not sure.

Reviewed on: 7/4/2014 5:33:00 AM
The slide was SO easy to set up, just inflate (an electric mattress inflator worked great) and hook up to a hose. The children loved it!
The only thing was that I couldn't fold it up to fit back in the box - no big deal though.
- Dottie
Reviewed on: 7/3/2014 1:03:00 PM
Filled the slide with air in both chambers and both leaked. It went limp. I was surprised and disappointed. Tried to contact Hearthsong and they would not return my phone call. Again surprised and disappointed. No good if leaks and it did without ever using it.

Looked good coming out of the box. Filled it up with air both chambers and within 45 minutes it started going limp. Filled it up again making sure the air holes were tight.

I love this slip and slide! The kids (ages 6 and 10) have played with it quite a few times this summer. They are well cushioned and don't don't get scratches down their bellies when they down. The edges keep them in and it's well watered. I even went down it and found it great fun. Easy to care for and store. I'm sending one to my sister as a gift.

Repeating Classes and Incomplete Work
Repeating Classes
A student may elect to repeat any course in which he or she wishes to improve the grade. (If a course is designated "May be repeated for credit," then it can be repeated for a better grade only if the topic is the same as the topic of the original course.) If the course is repeated at St. Mary's College, the grade earned on the latest attempt, not the original grade, will be used in the computation of the grade-point average. The original grade remains on the permanent record. Furthermore, if the original grade was a passing grade, and the grade received on the latest attempt is a failing grade, then credit for that course will be rescinded.
A student may elect to repeat a course at another institution. To do so, the student must file a pre-approval of transfer credit form with the Office of the Registrar. If the grade received at the other institution is C- or better (or a D or better from a Maryland public institution), the student will be awarded transfer credits for pre-approved courses. Although the original grade will be removed from the computation of the grade-point average, it will remain on the transcript. The transfer grade is not calculated into the grade-point average.
A student may not repeat a course after earning a degree from the College.
Incomplete work
An I (Incomplete) may be given by the instructor only at the request of the student when extraordinary circumstances, such as extended illness or other serious emergency beyond the control of the student, prevent the student from completing a course within the academic term. To qualify for an Incomplete, the extraordinary circumstances must have occurred near the end of the term and the student must have been attending the course regularly throughout the term up until that point. To assign an Incomplete, the instructor must discuss with the student the work that must be completed and the deadline for submission of that work. In addition, the instructor will indicate the reason for the Incomplete by checking the appropriate box on the "Incomplete Request Form" submitted to the registrar at the time grades are due for that semester. The instructor will also indicate the grade the student should receive if the conditions for completion of the course work are not met by the appropriate deadline. If no grade is specified on the incomplete request form or if the reason for the Incomplete is not checked on the form, a grade of F will be recorded on the student's transcript. The student must submit all designated work to the faculty member by the end of the fourth week of the following semester. The deadline for submitting the grade change to the registrar is the end of the sixth week of that semester. Any Incomplete that is not removed prior to that date will revert to the grade specified by the contract granting the Incomplete. The instructor may extend the deadline for submission of work until later in the semester if the student requests such an extension in writing. However, the Incomplete must be removed by the last day of classes of that semester, or the grade reverts to the grade specified by the contract granting the Incomplete. No Incomplete may remain on a graduating senior's transcript, and graduating seniors are ineligible for Incompletes in the semester that the degree is conferred.

The game plays like Cake Shop, Flo on the Go and Ore No Ryomi 1 and its sequel, which are on our site.
The deal is to build up a cake shop by buying new fittings for the shop, getting it a better rumour and serving customers quickly. When all this is taken care of you also get the opportunity to build yourself a home in the city so you wont feel homesick anymore.
Granted - the game is rather girly, but it actually plays very addictively. The game has a Barbie-feel to it, and that might take a little bit of the desire to play at first, but don't let it scare you off.
If you have tried one of these types of games before you will have no problem playing Cake Queen as it simply lets you drift through the game with no real problems. Most of your servings will probably be perfect to begin with, and that is also some of the appeal of this game. It is easygoing and thus relaxing.

School board sets priorities
Safety was the top priority for Guilford County Board of Education at its retreat on Saturday.
Guilford County Schools staff presented the board with construction projects that need to be done in the county's schools. Staff recommended prioritizing those schools to make the most sensible use of the board's remaining $80 million from unused bonds.
The top priority project is a kitchen expansion at Northwood Elementary to comply with state standards. The kitchen at Northwood is not properly sized for the current student population of 644. The expansion would cost $639,225.
Renovations at High Point Central were fifth on the list of priorities after traffic safety concerns at Dudley High and Northwest Guilford High totaling $1.9 million and replacing one of the district's oldest schools, Hunter Elementary, for $18.8 million. High Point Central also would receive a cafeteria expansion and a media center addition totaling $12.55 million.
Central's renovations would include upgrades to the Tomlinson building. The renovations and repurposing of areas in Central's main building would free up space in the Tomlinson building to use for The Academy at Central. Plans call for building a Career and Technology Education facility on the Trenton Street side of the campus along with new parking, along with media center and cafeteria additions.
The board decided to take renovations of McIver Education Center off the list for now because it currently is not occupied by students. McIver's students were split between the two new special education centers, Herbin-Metz for students in grades K-8 and Greene for students in grades 9-12.
Also on the priority list are athletic renovations at Smith High, costing about $5.3 million, which would include bleachers and a press box that several parents, players and faculty have mentioned during public comments at board meetings.
Western High also would get renovations to repurpose its auxiliary gym into dining space, repurpose the current gym into the auxiliary gym and build a new gym totaling $6.9 million.
The board's priority projects total about $46 million, leaving $34 million.
The next priority on staff's list was replacing Guilford Middle School, which would cost $34.2 million. The board did not put that project on its list until it can close out some of the open construction projects in the district and see how much money is left from those projects.
