Red State or Blue State America? What's at Stake Over Healthcare at the Supreme Court
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
The Republican Party again showed its petulant, "party-of-no" face on Tuesday as lawyers representing 26 red states and conservative think-tanks told the U.S. Supreme Court that nobody should be forced have health insurance—even if people carrying insurance end up subsidizing the defiantly uninsured who get ill.
"Could you tell me," Justice Sonia Sotomayor began, in perhaps the most succinct moment capturing this schism, addressing Paul D. Clement, an attorney representing the law's challengers, "do you think the states could pass this mandate?"
"I represent 26 states," he replied. "I do think the states could pass this, but I…."
But they won't. The Republican leadership in his clients' states, including 11 with the highest percentage of uninsured residents in America, don't want to fix a broken healthcare system. Forget that these states are supposedly more religious than liberal America—they are not their brothers' keepers. It's everyone fending for themselves: that's the America they want.
In fact, Clement and a like-minded colleague argued that Congress created the healthcare cost crisis—including driving up everyone's premiums—when it required emergency rooms to treat everybody regardless of their ability to pay. That's unacceptable social engineering, he argued, drifting away from narrower constitutional issues.
"There's two kinds of cost shifting that are going on here," Clement said. "One is the concern about emergency care and that somehow somebody who gets sick is going to shift costs back to other policy areas -- holders. But there's a much bigger cost shifting going on here, and that's the cost shifting that goes on when you force healthy people into an insurance market precisely because they're healthy, precisely because they're not likely to go to the emergency room, precisely because they're not likely to use the insurance they're forced to buy in the healthcare insurance. That creates a huge windfall. It lowers the price of premiums."
This survival-of-the-fittest, screw-everyone-else line of argument set the tone for most of the second day of hearings on the Affordable Care Act of 2010. The Court's moderate minority pushed back, but not nearly as forcefully as the conservative majority, which repeatedly said that allowing the coverage mandate to stand might open the door to future congressional orders in some other area of life affecting all citizens, such as requiring people to eat certain foods—such as broccoli—or have a cellphone for emergencies, or even buy burial insurance, since we all die. (Yes, they really used these examples.)
"It's good for you in this case to say, oh, it's just insurance," Chief Justice John Roberts replied to the government's lawyer, Solicitor General Donald B. Verrilli, Jr. "But once we say that there is a market and Congress can require people to participate in it, as some would say, or as you would say, that people are already participating in it, it seems to me that we can't say there are limitations on what Congress can do under its commerce power…."
The more liberal jurists did not let these Darwinian arguments go unquestioned. Justice Sotomayor quickly turned on Carvin's argument that if emergency rooms only took people carrying checkbooks with positive balances that there might not be a crisis.
Justice Sotomayor: Do you think that there's -- what percentage of the American people who took their son or daughter to an emergency room and that child was turned away because the parent didn't have insurance -- do you think there's a large percentage of the American population who would stand for the death of that child....
Mr. Carvin: One of the more pernicious, misleading impressions that the government has made is that we are somehow advocating that people could get thrown out of emergency rooms, or that this alternative that they've hypothesized is going to be enforced by throwing people out of emergency rooms.

France vs Mexico on Twitter
June 17th, 2010 | brainjuice
* I love French football. "I am le bored with your feet now, leetle foreigner. I now cut them off with my boot."
* French team: "We are so bored now that we will simply stand around and let the Mexicans score. Be SEARED by our ennui."
* French team now standing around smoking Gauloises, composing miserable poetry.
* French team unsure why they're being punished for kicking people instead of ball, asking if skullfucking is also illegal
* Three minutes extra time added. French burst into tears.
* Mexico deserved that win. They stayed above France's dirty, sullen game. Also, I like to think the Mexicans were armed.

Kerry's visit 'very comforting' to family of U.S. diplomat killed in Afghanistan
BY MITCH DUDEK Staff email@example.com April 15, 2013 8:38PM
Article Extras
Updated: May 17, 2013 6:45AM
Secretary of State John Kerry offered heartwarming condolences Monday during a stop in Chicago to visit the family of the young U.S. diplomat from River Forest who was killed while delivering textbooks in southern Afghanistan on April 6.
"It was a very personal visit, and for us very comforting and consoling," said Tom Smedinghoff, whose daughter, Anne, 25, will be buried Wednesday. "It meant a lot to us to have the opportunity to visit personally with the secretary to hear his personal recollections of Anne from his recent visit in Kabul."
Smedinghoff stood with his wife, Mary Beth, and their three other children as he spoke briefly on the front lawn of his west suburban home about meeting with Kerry at O'Hare Airport.
"It really reinforces for us that Anne was part of a very close-knit family of very dedicated people who are serving our country in so many different ways," he said.
Kerry made the detour on his way back from Japan, the final leg of a 10-day overseas tour that started with tragedy when he learned of Anne Smedinghoff's death while readying to depart for Turkey on April 6.
Officials sent an SUV Monday to transport the Smedinghoffs to and from the airport.
Smedinghoff and four other Americans were killed while walking from a military base to a nearby school. Two explosions occurred, apparently a suicide car bombing followed by a roadside blast.
Her death came just two weeks after Kerry met Anne while on a visit to Afghanistan, where she served as his guide, an honor often bestowed on up-and-coming members of the foreign service.
Smedinghoff was on her second tour of diplomatic duty. She previously served in Venezuela.

2015 Child Safety Seat Checkpoints Schedule
January 10, February 14, March 14, April 11, May 9, June 13, July 11, August 8, September 12, October 10, November 14 and December 12

Child Safety Seat Tips [PDF]
Learn the correct way to install your child's car seat. For more information call 865-215-1522.
Information you should know:
Most crashes occur near home and can be violent, even at lower speeds. When used correctly, child safety seats can prevent injuries and save lives.
Children 12 years old and under should ride properly restrained in the back seat.
Infants should ride in rear-facing safety seats as long as possible; at least until they are 12 months old and weigh at least 20 pounds. The American Association of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends children remain rear-facing up to 2 years of age to reduce stress and injury to the neck and spine. Many seats today allow for children to remain rear-facing up to 35 pounds or greater.
Children who are at least one-year of age and exceed the upper weight limit of the rear-facing child safety seat should ride forward facing in an appropriate seat. Many allow up to 65 lbs.-80lbs. for the harness.
Those children who exceed the weight limit of forward facing seats must use a booster seat until the lap and shoulder belt fit correctly (around 9 years of age).
Once a child reaches their ninth birthday or 49 the lap and shoulder belt in the car should fit them correctly.
In order to fit children properly all child safety seats must be installed and used according to the manufacturers instructions and the vehicle owners manual.
The Knoxville Police Department has checked almost 6,000 child safety seats. Most installations have been improved at a checkpoint.

How "real" is intellectual property?
Toward the end of a session on copyright at the American Library Association's annual conference last week, Carrie Russell, who is the Director of the ALA's Program on Public Access to Information, exhorted the audience never to speak about copyright "ownership." "Rights holders," she said, do not own anything at all; holding IP rights is not the same as owning "real" property.
Based on the common understanding of ownership, it is easy to see what Carrie is getting at here, and to agree with it. There are fundamental differences between real property and intangible intellectual property. The most obvious is that borrowing or sharing intellectual property does not diminish the supply of it. And a rights holder loses his or her rights after a set period of time, the period set by the statutory grant of those rights. This makes it very clear that intellectual property rights are indeed a creature of law, created by legislative action and not by natural right.
But in truth, all property ownership, at least in the 500-year-old Anglo-American tradition, is similarly limited. It is a truism of property courses in law school that owning a piece of land means holding a bundle of rights, most importantly the right to exclude others from the property. But once real property ownership (as well as ownership of "chattel") is seen as a bundle of rights (just as copyright is), the distinction between real and intellectual property seems less clear and telling. In a recent blog post about the Israeli copyright scholar Orit Fischman Afori, William Patry has occasion to quote the British philosopher Jeremy Bentham on this topic: "there is no such thing as natural property; it is entirely a creature of the law. … Property and law were born together, and would die together. Before the laws property did not exist; take away the laws, and property will be no more." If real property is subject to the same limitations as intellectual property — each is a limited set of rights granted by statute rather than a permanent and uncompromisable outgrowth of natural law — it is interesting to ask what the real consequences of the analogy between owning IP and owning a car or a piece of land might be.
This analogy, of course, is a favorite of copyright "maximalists" who frequently complain, for example, that car thieves get thrown in jail while "pirates" of copyrighted music must be sued individually and at great cost to the rights holder. Many would like to view ownership of IP as a kind of "allodial," or absolute, ownership, and would be surprised to learn that no ownership under our system of law derived from feudalism is actually so absolute. All ownership is subject to limitations imposed by law to achieve a fair balance between exclusive possession and socially beneficial use. If maximalists got their way and IP ownership was really treated just like owning real estate, they might regret what they wished for.
Real property ownership is, after all, subject to lots of limitations. Zoning laws, for example, place strict limits on the use of particular parcels of land; I cannot open a law office in my garage in the neighborhood in which I live because it is zoned for residential use only. Not really very different from all those restrictions on the exercise of copyright found in sections 107-122 of Title 17. And in the world of both real and personal property, the "doctrine of first sale" is virtually absolute; the law looks very suspiciously on any attempt to restrict the "free alienability" of land and often will not enforce such restrictions. IP owners who have recently tried to attack first sale in several court cases would not benefit much if the analogy with real property were strictly applied. Finally, property rights in the bundle that land owners get can be lost if they are not exercised. If I occupy a piece of land for a set period of time — 15 years in many states — and the owner makes no attempt to eject me, I will become the new owner of that land. Imagine how our orphan works problem would diminish if we applied that same principle to copyrights. On this score, copyright owners, whose rights persist for life plus 70 years whether they exercise them or not, are much better off than are those who own land. A copyright holder can choose to exercise their exclusive rights in one case, then ignore other infringements for many years before electing to enforce their rights again; a landowner does not have that luxury.
The relationship between real property ownership and the same concept regarding intellectual property is complex, but both are bundles of rights that are subject to many limitations and exceptions in statute and in common law. Neither copyright maximalists nor those who advocate for more limited IP rights have the argument all their own way when the analogy with land is invoked, but especially for the copyright owner who asserts that his or her rights should be treated just the way real property ownership is treated the message is 'be careful what you wish for."
One Response to How "real" is intellectual property?
SAMDEL says:
I've made a post on my blog, samdel.wordpress.com, entitled "The Property That Binds Us: Why Self-Reliance Is Never Gained Through Any Law" that may correlate well with the entry herein. In it, I refer to Ralph Waldo Emerson's "Self-Reliance" and his pragmatic approach at viewing "law" for what it is.
Nonetheless, it's a catch 22. Our "want" of self-reliance compels us to enact laws, among them those relating to property. Oddly, this very action creates dependence, whereby the laws begin to define who we are rather than the other way around.
When it comes to a "Creator" we cannot disassociate their creation from the individual (or entity) that created it. If it's a natural person creating something truly unique we need to look no further than that person to recognize them as the author and rightful owner of their creation. We should all be able to agree that the tangible product is a result of an intangible source and that they're intrinsically linked.
But it is also true that at some point a line of distinction between where one places the tangible and intangible must be drawn, and this is the great challenge. As an artist myself, I would look to share what I can create. However, I should never be forced to relinquish what I create by society. This would be subjugation to the whims of the collective, which is the root of all dictatorships.
Yes, one must definitely be very careful on what wishes for indeed. Still, until humanity rids itself of its collective follies it must remain in servitude to the "rule of law". The remaining choice for the individual that finds themselves threatened by such law is a matter of personal decision, and will invoke whatever consequences stem from the conditions set by that law, but more importantly by they who hold the power to enforce it.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Masekela, Refiloe firstname.lastname@example.com URN etd-11232005-125040 Document Title Audit of neonatal transfers to a tertiary centre in the Tshwane metropolitan area Degree MMed(Paed) Department Paediatrics Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof M Kruger Keywords
- outcome
- stabilization
- resuscitation
- neonatal transfers
- complications.
Date 2005-09-29 Availability restricted AbstractAim: This is an audit to determine the referral diagnosis, any resuscitation or interventional measures taken, the condition on arrival and the outcome of neonates transferred from Mamelodi Hospital to Pretoria Academic and Kalafong hospitals.
Methods: Data was collected of all neonates transferred from Mamelodi hospital to the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) at Pretoria Academic and Kalafong hospitals between September 2003 and October 2004. The data was analysed for referral criteria, pre-transport resuscitation, condition on arrival and outcomes.
Results: There were 42 neonates enrolled in the study. The most common reason for referral was prematurity (71.4%). Forty six percent of the full term baby referrals were for birth asphyxia. Hypothermia was found in 79% of all patients on arrival at the tertiary care NICU. There were no intravenous lines in 52% of patients, while 23% had hypoglycaemia on arrival at the receiving hospital. The mortality rate was 26.1% with five of 12 full term neonates and six of 30 preterm neonates dying.
Conclusion: The study highlights the need for adequate pre-transport stabilization of neonates, which include interventions to avoid hypothermia and insertion of intravenous line with 10% Dextrose solution to prevent hypoglycaemia. There is a need to train health care staff to effectively resuscitate neonates to prevent or minimise birth asphyxia. Mothers in pre-term labour should be referred early to centres that can manage premature babies. This data will be used to develop transport protocols for transfers of high-risk neonates.

Neighbours cleans up at Inside Soap Awards
Chris Milligan and Tom Oliver brought a much needed ray of Aussie sunshine to proceedings as Neighbours scooped two gongs at tonight's 2012 Inside Soap Awards.
Tonight the 2012 Inside Soap Awards have played host to a galaxy of TV's favourite stars, with Neighbours' very own Chris Milligan (Kyle Canning) and Tom Oliver (Lou Carpenter) bringing a ray of much-needed Aussie sunshine to proceedings at London's swanky one Marylebone.
The ceremony truly belonged to Neighbours, which thanks to the public vote saw off competition from both fellow Aussie favourite (and last year's winner) Home and Away and BBC One's Doctors to be named Best Daytime Soap.
It was also a big night for Ryan Moloney (Toadie Rebecchi), who for the third consecutive year won Best Daytime Star, having been nominated in the same category as cast mates Chris Milligan (Kyle Canning), Eve Morey (Sonya Mitchell) and Jackie Woodburne (Susan Kennedy).
Greg Barnett, Channel 5's Commissioning Editor of Entertainment, Daytime and Soaps, says: 'Ramsay Street has been the home of some fantastic drama this last year and it's a delight to know that viewers are enjoying the great mix of storylines the Erinsborough inhabitants are involved in. We're thrilled Neighbours has won this award.'
Greg adds, 'You cannot argue that Ryan Moloney's portrayal of Toadie has clearly won the affections of UK soap fans. This is his third consecutive win and we're absolutely thrilled for him.'

New class: PathFinder
Saturday, April 17th, 2010|Core changes, Version 3|by Romans
Several of current components are relying on their own implementation for file searching:
- SMLite – template inclusion
- class auto-load
- javascript inclusion
- page search
PathFinder is designed to be a system-wide controller which will take all those searches under control. It introduces concepts of Locations and resource types (such as 'js', 'html' for templates, 'php' etc)
Structured APIs will automatically include PathFinder and will supply $api->locate($type,$filename) and $api->addLocation($location,$contents) function.
$contents is passed as array of $type=>'subdirectory'.

"Oceans", the signature CD at The Breakers, hit Billboard's Top 10 for the second annual Hotels CDs Top of the Chart contest.Composed and produced by artist Ed Van Fleet, "Oceans" is comprised of eight majestic and uplifting selections, characterized as "oh-so-relaxing" and "wonderfully ambient…with that beachside massage in mind." On a clear, starry night in June, Ed journeyed to the serene ocean waters of Maine's Acadia National Park, among the most beautiful in the world, to record the ocean surf. He composed these tracks from that experience.

Grey Towers was built in 1886 by James and Mary
Pinchot as a summer retreat. It was James who first recognized the
reckless destruction of natural resources that was overtaking the
nation in the 19th century. James encouraged his eldest son Gifford
to consider a career in forestry, thus introducing the idea of
conservation to America.
Gifford Pinchot went on to establish and serve
as the first Chief
of the US Forest Service, and he was twice elected Governor of Pennsylvania.
Between family, friends and political associates, Grey Towers was
always bustling with activity and was central
to advancing the Pinchots´ social, political and conservation ideals.
In 1963 the Pinchot family donated Grey Towers and its surrounding 102 acres to the US Forest Service.
Grey Towers Heritage Association (GTHA) supports the efforts of the US Forest Service
to preserve
and maintain the estate´s historic integrity, to continue the
tradition of Pinchot hospitality and to strengthen Grey Towers´
connection to our community. GTHA helps support public
programs that tell the interesting story of how one family
helped shape our nation´s thinking about conservation.
For more information visit the website of Grey Towers

Welcome to Spatial Design Multimedia: Digital media techniques and concepts for spatial design communication.
224.361_Paper Outline | Assessment Schedule
Project 02: HACKING SPACE
A hacker is someone who loves to program or who enjoys playful cleverness, or a combination of the two.[3] The act of engaging in activities (such as programming or other media[4]) in a spirit of playfulness and exploration is termed hacking. However the defining characteristic of a hacker is not the activities performed themselves (e.g. programming), but the manner in which it is done: Hacking entails some form of excellence, for example exploring the limits of what is possible,[5] thereby doing something exciting and meaningful.[4] – wikipedia (yuss)
Week 11 WordPress Steps
WordPress dashboard.
- Firstly, go to your groups website. It will be http://idea-edu.com/group1/ (but with your group's number)
- If you theme supports it, there will be a "login" link somewhere, but if not, go to the wordpress login page: http://idea-edu.com/group1/wp-login.php
- Now use the "dashboard" login and password information that I emailed to you to login.
- After logging in, there should be a dark-grey bar at the top of your website, you can use this to go to the dashboard, add posts, edit posts that you are on and more.
Cyberduck FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
- In Macos, Open the Cyberduck application.
- Click on the "Open Connection" button.
- Make sure the connection type is "FTP", sometimes it is on other protocols by default.
- Type "idea-edu.com/group1/" as your server
- Now use the "ftp server" login and password information that I emailed to you to login.
- Now you can navigate to your theme folder, it will be in "/wp-content/themes/"
- Make sure you double click on the folders to navigate into them.
- Now you should make a backup of your theme, so simply drag the folder from cyberduck to your desktop (or your carefully named website backups folder)
- Now you can edit the local copy of your theme (the one you just copied to your desktop)
- After editing a file, you can simply drag it back into the cyberduck window (make sure you drag it into the correct place, you want to overwrite the old file on the webserver with the local copy you just edited)
- Now refresh the website in your browser.
Week 10
WordPress is a free and opensource website development platform used to run small, medium and large scale websites. It is suitable for both inexperienced beginners and experienced web designer/developers.
The final portion of this project will be developing and hacking wordpress to compliment your groups studio project.
The spatial blog and spatial student archive is run using wordpress, also check out the wordpress site showcase
Don't freak out! We aren't expecting that you build a complete website from scratch! This is why we are using wordpress as there are 1000's of other users that have created themes and plugins that we can use to get basically what we want and then edit/hack to get exactly what we want.
As more and more clients become web savvy
they are actively seeking web designers who can
build impressive websites in WordPress.
Why? Because many clients like the functionality
WordPress offers and they want to be able to
make small edits to their website (like changing
text or adding blog posts) on their own. – Conrad Feagin (web designer)
Remember playful cleverness!
Edit something, see what happens, adjust, repeat. This will quickly build your working knowledge of html, css, js, php and wordpress.
Week 10 Tasks:
00: Javascript Presentations
Please put your javascript exercises on the 10B12 projector imac desktop so we can quickly run through them all.
01: Set up the Groups
Please enter the information for your studio/multimedia groups with individual members names and email addresses.
After you have input the info, I'll create users and send you all passwords to your very own live, functioning wordpress website!.
02: Overview of WordPress:
WordPress Overview Diagram:
03: Overview of the WordPress Dashboard
04: Overview of CyberDuck and FTP
student shared for password
05: Lab session
In your groups, login to the wordpress Dashboard (using a web browser) and the FTP webserver (using CyberDuck).
Using the dashboard, Add a post and a page, change the site name and description.
Look for a new theme using the dashboard interface, preview before installing, install it.
Now edit the theme using CyberDuck. You'll need to download the theme to your computer using CyberDuck, edit the files in Textwrangler, then re-upload using CyberDuck to overwrite the files on the ftp server.

New Photo Day! On a regular basis I will be uploading new street photos to flickr and posting them to my blog with a short story as to how they were captured. Including details technical, methodical, and other important tidbits on the photo.
The Capture
I was riding on the bus with my camera tucked away in it's bag on my way to shoot some photos. Step one, never have your camera in your bag when you are planning to take photos in the first place.
As I was sitting there thinking about the pictures I was hoping to get that day I noticed a child step onto the bus with his mother. He was holding a toy to his eye and looking through it as he walked the isle. I thought to myself "man that would have made a good photo!" Right at about that moment I realized my camera was off, un-configured, and resting inside a bag.
To make matters worse or in my case, better the child sat in the seat right in front of me and continued looking through the toy out the window as the bus traveled. I couldn't pass this up and luckily I had the time to take out my camera, configure it and snap off a few shots. This is where the story gets good. As I was capturing- ill call her a concerned patron – from across the way starting shouting at me and asking what I was doing. I recall, she said something like "Do you have his mother's permission to be taking his photo?! That's like a pedophile." to which I simply responded "no" and finished getting my shots.
All was well however, I handed the very flabbergasted onlooker my contact information and got off at my stop with the shot intact. Turns out the mother cared not about the photos and everyone went unharmed. It's not very often you get a second chance at a great moment. I considered myself lucky, accused pedophile or not. Also i'm not convinced that will be the last time someone is going to call me a pedophile.
The Photograph
To me this photograph speaks out in a couple of ways. You have the innocence of childhood represented by the subject and his toy, but you also have the subtle undertone of how children see the world from a different perspective. They surely don't see the things we see as we see them. An atm is not an express bank transaction, but a magic money machine where you key in a few numbers and get free money. I'd love to know the thoughts that were traveling through this little dude's brain as he was looking through that object. He certainly was not seeing or thinking what the rest of us were and that is pretty cool.
What do you think of this photo? What do you like or dislike? What would you have done differently? Let me know below! If you have questions about these featured photos that were not answered in the post then please feel free to ask in your comments.

"While these were delicious, I'm not sure you can call them a "healthy" cookie when the recipe contains an entire stick of butter and an entire cup of sugar."
"delicious! I didn't find them dry at all- chewy and chocolatey! I know my oven runs hot, and I found that only 7-8 minutes to bake was perfect."
"These were DELICIOUS!! I made them for work and everyone raved about them! I just used plain vanilla icing (easier) and they were still AMAZING!"
"The meat was tender, juicy, and flavorful but VERY SALTY!!! I tried to be really conscious to rinse it very well, but maybe still didn't rinse for long enough... Tasty, but not for those with high blood pressure!"

This easy and scrumptious twist on S'Mores doesn't even require a campfire! Simply prepare chocolate chip cookie dough (use a prepared mix or even a slice-and-bake product), press the dough into miniature muffin tins and bake. Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately insert a Rolo candy into the center of each, and top with mini marshmallows. Put the muffin tin back into the oven for an additional few minutes to make the marshmallows brown and puff. To make these treats even more decadent, drizzle melted chocolate chips on top. They're bound to be a huge hit as the winter weather starts to kick in!

In addition, it is going to take awhile and a few start ups for the light to go out! You coud just get a repair shop or someone with a code reader to turn it off. If it comes back on with the same code, check the wires and connector to the sensor. You said the temp gauge is ok now so just have the light turned off.

1295 and 97. Is in turbo area. Coolant is not prob. A little help please

UK singer Sampha, who is best known for his work on SBTRKT's self-titled debut, has his way with Chairlift's "Sidewalk Safari," injecting space into the track while pitching Caroline Polachek's voice up, down, and back up again and muddling the melody. It's the musical equivalent of trying to look at solid figure through a kaleidoscope. Maybe I'm overreaching, but it sounds cool. Stream it after the jump.

Love and loaves raise money in Falls Village
FALLS VILLAGE -- Love and loaves filled the rooms at the D.M. Hunt Library at its "Loaves in the Stacks" winter fundraiser Saturday.
A 16-foot table was laden with a wide variety of breads baked by local individuals or organizations. Among the hard-to-resist donations were zoph, a braided Swiss classic, Irish soda bread, gluten-free spiced ginger loaf, mini oat scones, bara brith (Welsh spice and fruit tea bread), Czernowitzer challah and Stromboli.

Mozilla Project Lays Groundwork for Open Source Web App Store
Project outlines features, sets starting point.
The Mozilla Project today announced on the Mozilla blog the creation of an open Web app store dedicated to supporting the development of cross-platform web apps.
According to Mozilla, an open app store should be built on open standards such as HTML5, CSS, Javascript to encourage interoperability. An open app store should also contain transparent quality assurance and security guidelines that are clearly defined and easy to understand. Mozilla also emphasized the importance of privacy in an open app store by tracking user behavior only to extent that is necessary to distribution and fulfillment.
The Mozilla Project didn't announce a timetable or any additional details for the open Web app store. Instead the project opened the discussion up to the community.

Home Medway News Article
A shopkeeper has told how a man came into her store, tried on a skirt and exposed himself to customers - including women and a child.
Maxine Medhurst was behind the counter at The 44 Store, in Rochester High Street, when a man came in, picked up a size 12 denim mini skirt and went to the changing room.
But he did not draw the changing room curtain and took off his trousers, exposing his genitals as he was not wearing any underwear.
He fitted into the skirt and then appeared to arouse himself with his hands though the garment and paraded around the shop floor.
Horrified Mrs Medhurst called 999 and was told a police patrol car would go to the scene, but no one arrived.
It happened shortly after 1pm on Saturday. Mrs Medhurst, 44, who co-owns the store with her 19-year-old daughter Megan, said: "One lady, who had been at the back of the store trying on some shoes, came up to the counter and told me he he was exposing himself.
"The whole thing went on for about 20 minutes. It's all been caught on CCTV - you can clearly see what he is doing.
"I told the police he was still in the shop and they needed to come but no one ever turned up. I feel let down by that."
Mrs Medhurst added: "It was not very nice for my customers either. There was a couple in the shop who had a baby in a pram.
"He even came up to the counter to try and buy the skirt, but he only had euros so I said I didn't take them.
"I felt very uncomfortable afterwards and frightened later. Usually I would have been on my own in the shop or Megan would have been."
Mrs Medhurst's father John Moore, 69, a former police officer, said: "There were ladies and a child in the shop at the time and this man was exposing himself.
"I was a police officer for 23 years and I'm appalled no one was dispatched to the shop."
A police spokesman said: "Kent Police was called at about 1.20pm on Saturday to a report of concern after a man had tried on a skirt in 44 Store in Rochester High Street.
"The caller said when the man came out of the changing room with the skirt on, he was exposing himself to other people in the shop.
"I told the police he was still in the shop and they needed to come but no one ever turned up. I feel let down by that..." - shop owner Maxine Medhurst
"The man is then reported to have gone back into the changing room and closed the curtain. Shortly after, the man, who was on his own, left the shop.
"Police liaised with CCTV operators who monitored the area. A patrol was deployed to the shop but was diverted to an urgent domestic incident in Chatham.
"No further sightings of the man were reported, so the matter was passed to neighbourhood officers to attend. An officer has since visited the shop to apologise for the delay in attending, make enquiries and gather evidence."
She added: "We are appealing to anyone with any information about this incident or similar incidents in the area to call us on 101, quoting crime reference 11-0667. Alternatively, if you would prefer to remain anonymous, call Kent Crimestoppers on 0800 555111."

2013 Razzie Nominations Announced; TWILIGHT: BREAKING DAWN – PART 2 Gets Nominated in Every Category
by Adam Chitwood Posted 1 year, 345 days ago
As we await the 85th Academy Award nominations announcement on Thursday morning, we now have a look at the opposite end of the 2012 film spectrum. The 33rd Golden Raspberry Award nominations have been announced, celebrating the very worst of what 2012′s movie slate had to offer. Leading the pack is The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 with 10 nominations, as the film landed a nomination in every single category. The Twilight closer will go head-to-head with Battleship, A Thousand Words, That's My Boy, and The Oogieloves in Big Balloon Adventure for the Worst Picture title.
It's easy to beat up on the Twilight franchise, and even though I wouldn't go so far as to call Breaking Dawn – Part 2 a good movie, it's in no way the worst movie of the year. The sheer amount of beheadings alone in director Bill Condon's climactic fight sequence is enough to make the movie worth watching. Anyway, hit the jump to check out the full list of Razzie Awards nominations.

All of Us are Poor
For all the college students out there, we know that being broke is normal. But I'm here to tell the rest of you that you are all broke as a joke too. Every. Last. One of you.
You may be thinking: "I just graduated, I make an awesome salary, I just bought this brand new 09 car, and I'm doing very well!" Or, "I live my parents and they take care of me!"
Well my response to you is that you're still broke. Very very poor.
Read the words of your Rabb:
يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَنْتُمُ الْفُقَرَاءُ إِلَى اللَّهِ ۖ وَاللَّهُ هُوَ الْغَنِيُّ الْحَمِيدُ
"O mankind! You are all Fuqaraa' to Allah, but Allah is Rich, Worthy of all praise!" (35:15)
Allah ta'ala addresses all of us, every last one of us. Not just the believers, Not just the Prophet but Muslim, non-Muslim, white, black, woman, man…every last human on this earth: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ O Mankind!
أَنْتُمُ الْفُقَرَاءُ إِلَى اللَّهِ You are all Fuqaraa' to Allah. Al fuqaraa is plural of the word faqeer which is from the root fa-qaaf-ra (ف ق ر) and faqr means poverty. Faqeer is one who has poverty and one who is poor. If we look at the root of this word, Faqrah is used for part of the spine and faaqirah is used for that which breaks the spine. So a faqeer is one who is suffering from back-breaking poverty, one who is extremely needy, so desperate for anything that could save them.
In the Qur'an, there are two words used to describe a poor person: faqeer and miskeen. What is the difference? Faqeer is someone who has no wealth and no means of obtaining wealth. So they have no money in the bank and they don't have a job (told you: broke as a joke!). While a miskeen is one who is also poor, but they have the means, they just need a little extra to make it.
So Allah ta'ala doesn't call us masakeen (plural of miskeen) but He says, we are all Fuqaraa'- you are all extremely poor. You do not own or possess a thing. And if wasn't for Allah ta'ala, you would have nothing. You are all in need of Allah ta'ala, in the dunya and aakhirah. In every state of your existance: in the womb, as a baby, as a toddler, as a young person, as an old person, at the time of death, in the grave and in the hereafter.
So we are fuqaraa'. Who is Allah?
Allah is: الْغَنِي Al-Ghaniyy, the One who is Rich, the Independent. Ghaniyy is from ghayn-noon-ya (غ ن ي) and ghaniyy means richness. So Allah is The One who is Very Rich, the One who is Self Sufficient, the One who is Free of All Wants and Needs. He needs nothing from us. Absolutely nothing. He has everything and we have nothing.
And He is: الْحَمِيد Al Hameed: The Most Praiseworthy. Hameed is from ha-meem-daal (ح م د) and Hameed is the One who is deserving of praise, if one does hamd of Him or not. He doesn't even need our hamd!
What lessons can we take from this ayah?
- Do not let the thought pass in your mind that you are benefiting Allah azza wa jal in any way. Don't be an arrogant broke person!
- Be humble to Allah azza wa jal. Remember that Allah ta'ala needs nothing from us. Why would He, Al Ghaniyy, need something from a puny, weak, broke human like ourselves when He Possesses the Kingdom (mulk) of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them? We are nothing.
- Ask Allah ta'ala, and He will give you. "…O My servants, all of you are hungry (needy) except for those whom I feed, therefore seek food from Me so that I may feed you. O My servants, all of you are naked (need clothes) except for those whom I provide garments, therefore seek clothing from Me so that I should clothe you. O My servants, you sin by night and by day and I am there to pardon your sins, therefore seek forgiveness from Me so that I should grant you pardon…" (Hadeeth Qudsi, Saheeh Muslim)
- Attribute all good to Allah ta'ala, and not to ourselves. You didn't memorize the Qur'an yourself. You didn't study the deen yourself. You didn't graduate yourself. You didn't get that job yourself. You didn't, you didn't, you didn't. Allah azza wa jal gave us all of these blessings, we did not will it for ourselves. Don't take credit for something you didn't do.
- Be grateful for what Allah ta'ala has given you and thank Him. Do hamd of Al Hameed. (Duaas for gratitude will be posted in the comments) How would we feel if we gave a load of cash to a homeless person who was in so much need of anything, yet they just took the money and didn't even say thank you? We'd be angry, right? And for Allah is the Highest Example! How can we, al fuqaraa', receive blessing after blessing and not thank Allah for it? He is not in need of our thanks and gratitude, Allah ta'ala says in surah Ibrahim ayah 7: لَئِنْ شَكَرْتُمْ لَأَزِيدَنَّكُمْ ۖ وَلَئِنْ كَفَرْتُمْ إِنَّ عَذَابِي لَشَدِيدٌ, indeed if you are grateful and give thanks, surely I will definitely increase you, but if you are ungrateful (then know) My punishment is indeed most severe.
What have we done to show Allah ta'ala we are truly thankful? Remember: Shukr (gratitude) is by action! The Prophet sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam would pray qiyaam until his feet would swell, and when asked by A'ishah radi Allahu anha why he still prays even though his past and future sins are forgiven, he said the famous answer: a falaa akuna 'abdan shakoora? Should I not prove myself to be a thankful servant? So we should use these blessings that Allah has given us to do good, and not use them to disobey Him. Allah ta'ala says in surah Saba ayah 13: وَقَلِيلٌ مِنْ عِبَادِيَ الشَّكُورُ, a FEW of My slaves are thankful.
Will you be among those few? Or will you be an arrogant, ungrateful broke person?
Alhamdulillah. Hamdan, katheeran, tayyiban, mubaarakan feeh. Allahumma a'innaa 'alaa dhikrika wa shukrika wa husni 'ebaadatika. The most perfect praise is only for Allah, a praise that is countless, good and blessed. O Allah, help us to remember You, to thank You, and to worship You in the best way. Ameen.

subhanAllah the Qur'an is so intensely insanely deep.
"Be grateful for what Allah ta'ala has given you and thank Him. Do hamd of Al Hameed. (Duaas for gratitude will be posted in the comments) How would we feel if we gave a load of cash to a homeless person who was in so much need of anything, yet they just took the money and didn't even say thank you? We'd be angry, right?"
In a particular city of a particular Muslim country, there are beggars who will come up to you and say, holding a 6 month old child, look at me, i'm so poor, this poor kid is an orphan, give me money, give me money, i need clothes, the kid needs food…and what can you do but give?
but what happens after that? this person does not thank you, and on top of that insists you give more and more and more. even if you gave up to 100 pounds, they'll insist they need more from you. and then other beggars will see this happening [the fact someone got something], and they will swarm you, insisting their rights for money from you, and will literally follow you down the street, maybe even for blocks, insisting you give them something.
look at this scenario:
– very poor person, clearly in a cycle of poverty, holding a kid born into poverty who is raised doing nothing but begging on the streets from childhood, and unfortunately [sooo sad], very likely to make this his or her [particularly her] living in adulthood.
– they beg of you, "i need this, i need this, give me this"…you give.
– then they DEMAND you give them more, without thanking you for giving the first time.
Obviously you don't give for their thanks, but are not appreciative of their demand for more. Isn't this just a little annoying?
Apply this scenario to our situation. Allah Musta'aan! How we are fuqara! And then we ask Allah and ask Allah and ask Allah… do we ever thank Allah 'Azza wa Jall…especially where it counts most? in our heart and actions? Or do we just keep demanding for more, and then when we get it, show complete unappreciation?
but then there are those people on the streets who if you give them something small, they make dua for you and show how much they appreciate it…don't you just want to give more to them?
so how about ALLAH the HIGHEST Example subhanahu wa ta'ala? that if we show some gratitude, as mentioned in the above verse in Surah Ibrahim, Allah will increase us! isn't shukr worth it? May Allah give us thabat and make us of the shakireen AMEEN
jezakiAllahu khayran Sr Amatullah please keep posting these gems!
That was very beneficial alhumdulillah. Since you mentioned in the post that the shukr (thanks) duas will be in the comments, I want to start it off by mentioning a very important dua about which the Prophet (sw) said: "…whoever says this in the morning has indeed offered his day's thanks and whoever says this in the evening has indeed offered his night's thanks."!
After (or before) fajr prayer:
أَللَّهُمَّ مَا أَصْبَحَ بِي مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ، أَوْ بِأَحَدٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ، فَمِنْكَ وَحْدَكَ لا شَرِيْكَ لَكَ، فَلَكَ الحَمْدُ وَلَكَ الشُّكْرُ
allahumma maa asbaha bi min ni'matin, au bi ahadin min khalqik, fa minka wahdaka laa shareeka laka, falaka al-hamdu wa laka ash-shukr.
After 'asr prayer:
أَللَّهُمَّ مَا أَمْسَى' بِي مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ، أَوْ بِأَحَدٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ، فَمِنْكَ وَحْدَكَ لا شَرِيْكَ لَكَ، فَلَكَ الحَمْدُ وَلَكَ الشُّكْرُ
allahumma maa amsaa bi min ni'matin, au bi ahadin min khalqik, fa minka wahdaka laa shareeka laka, falaka al-hamdu wa laka ash-shukr.
"Oh Allah, what blessing I or any of Your creation have risen upon, is from You alone, without partner, so for You is all praise and unto You all thanks."
* The two du'as mentioned above are the same except after fajr you say "asbaha" (morning), and after 'asr you say "amsaa" (evening).
wa iyyaki ukhtee, Ameen to your duaa. Jazakum Allahu khayran for giving such a beautiful example, subhanAllah how true it is!
Jazakum Allahu khayran br Zubair for posting that duaa, you beat me to the khayr! InshaAllah I will post some more duaas in a few.
Two ways that we can show shukr is by:
1- Praying two raka'at out of shukr. The whole salah is a form of dhikr.
2- Doing Sajdah as Shukr. (see here: http://islamqa.com/en/ref/5110/Sajdat%20al-Shukr) This is an authentic sunnah of the Prophet sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam.
Other duaas:
1- Narrated from A'ishah radi Allahu anha, "When the Prophet sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam saw something that pleased him, he would say: Alhamdulillahil lathee bi ni'matihi tatimmus saalihaat, and when he saw something that displeased him, he would say: Alhamdulillah 'alaa kuli haal. (Narrated in Sunan Ibn Maajah, classified as Saheeh according to Shaykh Albaani rahimahullah in Silsilatus Saheehah hadeeth 265)
الحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي بِنِعْمَتِهِ تَتِمُّ الصَّالِحَاتُ Alhamdulillahil lathee bi ni'matihi tatimmus saalihaat means: All praise and thanks are only for Allah, the One who, by His blessing and favor, perfected goodness/good works are accomplished.
الحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ Alhamdulillah 'alaa kuli haal means: All praise and thanks are only for Allah in all circumstances.
2- Duaa for completing a meal: http://www.makedua.com/display_dua.php?sectionid=66
3- Duaa for wearing a garment: http://www.makedua.com/display_dua.php?sectionid=2
4- Duaa when waking up: http://www.makedua.com/print_dua.php?duaid=3
Can anyone think of other duaas?
asalaamu alaykum, thank you very much for posting. a sister that i used to know would call herself a porper, this really agravated me, because she clearly was not in a conventional sense, but she didn't explain what you just did. al-hamdulilah thanks once again
jazaakillaahu khayran
Sister Amatullah, may Allah reward you the best in this world and in the hereafter. I really learn a great deal from your writings. InshaAllah, I'll be taking the next al-huda class.
very beneficial, mashaAllah! ungratefulness and arrogance come hand in hand and sneak up on us all

UC Berkeley's new Dreambox is a vending machine like no other – it incorporates a 3D printer that makes and dispenses goodies right before your eyes! By connecting to a cloud-based computing system hosted within the machine, customers can upload their designs and set them in the cue for printing.
The designers of Dreambox wanted a place for 3D printing enthusiasts to see their designs being created—a treat they don't get to see if they place an order online or with a print shop.
The renderings are processed, printed, and then (like any other vending machine) popped into a drawer for the customer to collect. Should the customer not be present, they can rest easy, knowing that their printed design is safe, as the storage drawers are locked until needed. Each customer is then given an unlock code, which frees their newly printed masterpiece.
3D printing has drastically changed the ideas of manufacturing over the past few years, making design more accessible to the user, and changing the idea of prototypes—since they can just be printed piecemeal. In that vein, the Dreambox makes 3D printing even more accessible, allowing designers to print their designs on the spot without going through an online printer or purchasing their own 3D printing machine.

SYNCOPE (Gr. συγκοπή, a cutting up or short, from κόπτειν, to cut), a term used in grammar for the elision of a letter or syllable in the middle of a word (e.g. "ne'er" for "never") ; and in medicine for the condition of fainting or shock (q.v.); and so occasionally in a general sense for a suspension or cessation of function. "Syncopate" and "syncopation" are analogous derivatives; and in music a syncopation is the rhythmic method of tying () two beats of the same note into one tone in such a way as to displace the accent.
