Lebron's public douchebaggery stains his legacy
I was out to dinner last night and I could barely hear anyone speak. There was some annoying game of musical trivia on the loudspeakers, blasting old-school tunes. There were people screaming everywhere around me, trying to let their voices be heard over all the goddamn music. And then, quite suddenly, there was pretty much complete silence. The music was turned off, everyone stopped speaking, and the restaurant had turned the TV station to "The Decision."
It couldn't have been more clear than it was in that restaurant last night: Whether you're Lebron's biggest fan or you think he's the biggest douchebag in the universe, you watched last night as he made his choice. You can say whatever you want about the way Maverick Carter and the rest of LeTeam handled Lebron's free agency, but there was a buzz about it unlike any I've ever seen. I'm not even kidding when I say the whole restaurant went quiet and simply listened to Lebron. Everything stopped and Lebron was the only one who mattered.
Which, you get the feeling, is exactly how Lebron always feels. He could have called a simple press conference with Wade and Bosh to announce their decision. He could have apologized to Cleveland, telling the world he loves his hometown but couldn't envision himself winning titles there. And nobody would have blamed him; we all know Cleveland wasn't his best opportunity to win championships. He'd already tried there and failed, and the Cavs didn't have much roster flexibility to make positive changes. We all understand Chicago or Miami were both far better places for Lebron to win rings. Cleveland was his hometown, sure, but if Lebron had show humility and a sense of compassion when making his decision we all would have forgiven him.
Instead, he turned his decision into one of the greatest spectacles of douchebaggery ever seen in modern sports. Not only did he hold the entire world — as well as every team that recruited him — hostage, but Lebron did it in such a way that you almost wondered if he was intentionally sabotaging his public image. "The Decision"? Really? Lebron could have been caught with drugs and wouldn't have done as much damage to his image. At least people would have seen him as human, rather than an attention whore seeking only to increase his marketability in any ill-advised way possible, even if it meant tearing Cleveland's heart out on national television, even if it meant turning the whole world, save one city, against him.
But my guess is that Lebron doesn't want us to see him as human. He wants to be seen as a basketball god, an immortal legend bigger than the sport and everyone else who plays it. At least, that's how he makes it seem. How else can you explain Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh revealing their decisions quietly while Lebron created an hour-long television show to tell the world his own?
Lebron and Wade were free agents 1A and 1B, but Lebron didn't feel that way. In his mind, this summer was the summer of his own free agency, not anyone else's. Sure Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh were highly sought-after, but nobody captivates the public's interest, and now its disdain, like Lebron. Lebron knew that and he tried to use it to his advantage. He tried to play this free agency spectacle to a crescendo, but ended up crashing and burning inside the Greenwich Boys and Girls Club while millions of people looked on.
It's weird, too, because while Lebron cemented his ego-hounding image worldwide, he somehow managed to maintain his on-court reputation as a selfless teammate. We criticize stars every day for chasing money, chasing glory, but Lebron James only wants to win titles. He made a decision to sacrifice his own personal star in order to win championships and play with his friends. In a world in which players consistently want to pad their stats, make as much money as possible and establish themselves as superior to anyone else, Lebron's decision to share the spotlight should have been refreshing. It should have been about a player trying to do the right thing.
Instead, because of the embarrassing fashion with which he executed his decision, Lebron's selfless decision to share the wealth, fame, spotlight and rings was all about ego, all about a man who thinks he's above society. Lebron and LeCrew tried to raise Lebron's star by making a spectacle unlike any other, but in the process took an axe to Lebron's bond with his home state and tore down any good-standing Lebron had with NBA fans. They tried to raise Lebron's star by raising the hoopla to an hour-long, self-indulged frenzy, but Lebron, Maverick Carter and everybody else who decided to put together "The Decision" forgot one thing:
Lebron's world-encompassing star can only be increased by one thing, and it certainly isn't millions of viewers watching a free agency decision. It's a fulfillment of the one accomplishment Lebron has yet to achieve during his NBA career: Winning an NBA title.
Now, you have to wonder if even that will be enough.

In the end, the end doesn't justify the means. He did it to win a ring and probably even signed for something less, but ironically couldn't help being a megalomaniac b!tch. Wow.

The fact that he did not communicate to his teammates and the Cavs ownership prior to announcing his decision just shows the total lack of class and understanding that he exudes. I hope he wins ZERO rings and is still trying to win the first when he's 40+. I love'd Wade and the Heat but now LBJ has changed all that. His advisors are idiots and the show was a self-serving bunch of crap. Never heard a peep from him about giving any $$$ to the B's&G's Club during his hour (of power?). All I can ask is KING of what?

Is Lebron an ego driven maniac? Probably. After last night there is more evidence to say yes that's for sure.
I didn't have a problem with him going to MIA, but the way he did it was just ridiculous. His advisors are all morons! They are killing his image.
Of course seeing the reaction of CLE fans and there mentally unstable owner, I don't blame him. He was not going to win in CLE and I wouldn't want to play there either.
Kobe asked for help and he was a duesh about it but he got Gasoft. Lebron wanted help for 7 years and got SH*T!
They pieced together a bunch of used scraps no one wanted and never got anything good.
Let me ask you Dan, was not giving up JJ Hickson for Amare instead of getting Twan a good idea now?! CLE could have had James AND Amare and been able to offer both max deals, while possibly having what was needed to trade for CP3 or get something for Amare in a sign and trade in the off season, but no you wanted to keep Hickson.
He tried to keep what he wanted while throwing together a crap roster, with a bad coach around a superstar in his prime and wasted it.
Lebron owed CLE nothing, and then in the playoffs when they lost because they made STUPID choices, everyone piled on Lebron saying he quit! SOOOO…did you really think he was coming back to hear that crap from the psycho owner and his pathetic fanbase.
I'd bolt too! Albeit, not the way Lebron did. That was all for his ego, as payback for everyone who said crap after they lost in the playoffs the past 2 years. That's what I think.
Now he has his friends, a new fanbase, a better living area, better GM and coach, 2 fellow superstars, and can build a new legacy with a team that, from what I see, could end up unbeatable for the next 5 years.
Sucks for me as a C's fan but hey, I don't blame Lebron for it.

This Collection Development and Access Plan has a threefold purpose. It is a tool for the Library to become better informed of the information and data needs of academic programs on campus. Second, it will outline how existing local collections, networked electronic services, and document delivery services are being utilized to meet the bibliographic needs of these programs. Third, it is hoped that this plan will provide the faculty and the library staff a base for dialog concerning future information needs and areas for cooperation. This plan follows the broad guidelines established in Ownership and Access in a Global Information Market: A Framework for the University of Connecticut Libraries, issued by the Chancellor's Library Advisory Committee in March 1999, and the FY 2003 update, Library Collecting for a Digital Age: An FY 2003 Update to Ownership and Access in a Global Information Market.
Anthropology has a budget of $32,000 for fiscal 2004. Serial expenditures, which were $13,720 in 2001, are expected to top $18,000 in 2004. Social Science and Medicine, which cost $3,890 in 2003, and the American Journal of Physical Anthropology, which cost $1,584, are the significant cost drivers.
Networked Services: Electronic indexing, abstracting, and full-text services purchased by the Library's Networked Services budget which primarily or significantly support research in Anthropology include: Anthropological Literature, Web of Science, MedLine, PopLine, PsychInfo, and Anthropological Index Online.
Anthropology is published world-wide in English and in French, Spanish, German, and Italian. Significant work is published in all areas of Anthropology in Australia, but much of it is not actively distributed here.
Because of the international scope of the discipline and an increased interest in sharing their work with indigenous people, anthropologists put more material on the web than comparable disciplines. The anthropological monograph has been declining in parallel to the decline in opportunities for in-depth field work with culturally distinct groups. Although there are still valuable monographs published in anthropology, much of the discipline now follows the scientific pattern under which key work is first published in journal articles and only subsequently summarized in synthetic monographs. Because indigenous languages and cultural practices are vanishing, existing library collections of ethnographic literature are likely to retain their value as snapshots in time, however flawed.
As a fairly specialized academic field, with a strong presence in only a couple of hundred universities, anthropology has been fortunate in continuing to enjoy fairly strong support from university presses for its monographic publications. Large commercial publishers like Elsevier, Kluwer and Wiley now dominate journal publishing in both physical and medical anthropology and are making inroads in all branches of the discipline. In recent years, several new journals in social anthropology have been issued by Harwood Academic, a subsidiary of the extremely high-priced publisher, Gordon & Breach.
The Department is fairly broadly interested in hunter-gather peoples and their modern day descendents. There is interest in archaeology in the ethno-history of Amerindian populations in eastern North America and Mesoamerica and in the transition to agriculture in the ancient near east and elsewhere. Cultural and Social anthropologists also study contemporary indigenous and marginalized populations and developing societies in Australia, Southwest Africa and the Americas.
The Department is building strength in psychological or cognitive anthropology. There is growing interest in the use of psychosocial measures and interview techniques developed in other disciplines in contemporary fieldwork.
Our domestic approval plan
The University of Connecticut Libraries uses the approval plan services of Yankee Book Peddler to supply the bulk of new monographs. YBP profiles a broad spectrum of publishers and subjects relevant to Anthropology. Although some important publishers and series come directly at book, most of our acquisitions are hand selected from advance notification slips. Yankee covers all but very smallest publishers who actively distribute in this country.
Other sources of new book
The following additional sources are regularly checked for possible acquisitions:
We lack a good notification source of Australian publications; periodic subject searches are run in OCLC's WorldCat, but this is insufficient.
Sporadic efforts are made to check the reviews in the American Anthropologist against our holdings. The last issues checked as of August 2003 were from 2001.
Format considerations
Textbooks, popular reading, guide books, examinations, laboratory manuals, software and hardware manuals are generally not collected. Dissertations will be purchased in response to specific recommendations. Specific suggestions from library users, including students and faculty, are always given full consideration.
Subject emphases
Old world archaeology focuses on the Paleolithic and the Neolithic. Synthetic works are generally favored over site-specific studies, especially if the publication is in French, German or Spanish rather than English. Work on pre-agricultural occupation and early agriculture is collected fairly intensively, with special emphasis on the ancient Near East, Madagascar and South and Southeast Asia.
Titles on American Indians are collected for both history and anthropology. Emphasis is given to Indians east of the Mississippi and, to a lesser degree, those now resident in the American Southwest. Archaeological material from California and the Mountain West is generally not collected.
Medical anthropology is strongly collected in so far as we can identify it.
Work on early human evolution is strongly collected. Studies in hominid behavior are selectively acquired, often in the interest of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology.
Scholarly monographs in social anthropology are still fairly broadly collected; but greater selectivity is exercised in evaluating titles costing $50 or more. Emphasis is placed on contemporary Amerindian peoples, Australian Aborigines, New Zealand Maori, and cultural interaction throughout the Americas. Topical considerations and the reputation of particular authors, publishers and publisher series strongly influence our more selective acquisitions of contemporary ethnography from Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Middle East.
Work on methodology in both archaeology and field research is strongly collected.
Subjects sparingly
Only a small number of synthetic works are acquired in anthropological linguistics. Folklore is very selectively collected. The grey literature generated by the "development" activities of U.N. agencies and N.G.O.'s is not actively collected. A sizeable amount of this literature is, however, being made available on the web.
New journal subscriptions in Anthropology will be considered in response to a student or faculty request. The Library requires special justification, or evidence of demand from our document delivery statistics, to consider titles from commercial publishers known for rapidly increasing the subscription costs of their titles. Depending on its cost and the current state of the Anthropology budget, addition of a new title may require the cancellation of one or more existing subscriptions. In those instances where we have both the option and an economic incentive, it is currently library policy to prefer electronic to print subscriptions.
Video, is acquired in DVD, VHS, NTSC and PAL formats, but generally only in response to a specific faculty requests for use with a particular class. Collections are not proactively developed in video because of the relatively short expected life and the high cost of migrating or reformatting such media.
CD-ROMs exhibit similar problems of compatibility with upgraded workstation configurations.
In order to enable students and faculty in Anthropology to locate and utilize the research materials they need, the Library offers a combination of local collections, licensed electronic products, subject and program-based web links, current awareness services, document delivery and interlibrary loan. Our goal is to help you succeed.
The current compliment of general electronic indexing, abstracting, and current awareness services, combined with those specific to Anthropology, seems adequate to support resource discovery in all areas except perhaps archaeology and the development literature, neither of which is adequately covered by available services.
User enthusiasm and economic incentives have caused the library to embrace electronic only access to commercial as well as non-profit journal packages. With the subscription year that begins in January 2004, if a cost savings is available, the libraries are generally converting journal subscriptions that currently bring us both print and electronic copies to electronic-only provision.
We are making this change on a publisher-by-publisher basis. Many of our electronic journals do not come directly by license from the publisher, but instead through aggregator products such as Lexis-Nexis Academic, Dow-Jones, InfoTrak and Wilson Web. The arrangements between aggregators and publishers are constantly in flux. Only when titles are available through multiple aggregators, in a complete and reasonably current version will the cancellation of print be considered.
We have resisted going electronic-only up to now because of concerns about long-term, archival access. Commercial publishers cannot be relied upon to archive their content once the prospect of additional sales approaches nil. Although a solution is far from in place, we believe that technologies now under examination, with funding from the National Science Foundation among others, will yield solutions whereby the largest research libraries will undertake the distributed archiving of digital content in all our interest. We expect that even the largest commercial publishers will, ultimately, cooperate with such an arrangement.
One of the primary goals in the immediate future will be to identify the journals for which we have a subscription but not electronic access, and attempt to add said access. Often the stumbling block for doing so is the license agreement. Additionally, many of the society journals are only now being made available electronically. Often, online access to these titles is free with a print subscription. Retaining access to the already respectable menu of online journals provided by the Library is an ongoing library goal although this effort is becoming increasingly difficult. Because of unsustainable inflation of scholarly journals, electronic only access may be increasingly viewed as a viable option. The question of permanent access to reliable archives of this material is not yet resolved, making such a switch a risky venture.
Furthermore, electronic journals can be hot linked to web based indexes like Web of Science, and the electronic resources listed above. Additionally, the Library's electronic journal locator, eCompass, facilitates the identification of specific e-journal titles "owned" by the Library (i.e., accessible via the University internet domain, ".uconn.edu".)
The Anthropology Library Liaison maintains a web page
that organizes and promotes a wide range of electronic
resources for Anthropology including locally licensed
indexing/abstracting services and full-text resources
located at: /research/bysubject/anthro.htm
The liaison welcomes comments on improvements to the page and recommendations for additional sites, which might be listed. His general strategy has been to "stand on the shoulders of giants," by linking wherever possible to specialist pages maintained by full-time specialists, who have a better chance than your humble liaison in keeping up with the rapidly changing world of web offerings.
DD/ILL is an integral part of all our collection development and access plans. DD/ILL data is actively considered in relation to both journal purchase decisions and collection budget planning. The liaison periodically reviews both the monographs and journals being borrowed by students and faculty affiliated with the Anthropology Department to see if patterns of new research interests or subjects not well-covered by our existing collections emerge.
In early 2004, the library hopes to implement access to the shared catalog of the Boston Library consortium. By searching this catalog, researchers will be able to identify monographs that we don't own and directly request them from the owning institution. Boston University's Africana collection is one example of the kinds of resources students and faculty will be able to draw upon through the BLC shared catalog.
Year to year inflation in the cost of Anthropology journals and a more gradual but inexorable rise in the cost of academic monographs have already begun to affect the quantity of monographic acquisitions. We are hopeful that improved consortia cooperation through initiatives like the BLC shared catalog and conversations about cooperative collection development that are just beginning will mitigate some of the impact of this decline in local collecting.
Obviously collective action by anthropologists to take back their intellectual property from commercial publishers would have the most profound impact.
The future of collecting to support Anthropology in a changing information economy
Both continuing inflation in the unit cost of print and electronic publications, and expanding demand for new products and services are anticipated. The Libraries do not expect the University to solve this problem by increasing the Libraries' share of limited University resources. The Libraries hope for a continuation of the current level of support, but cannot regard it as guaranteed. Increasingly though, measures of user behavior: circulation by classification and patron affiliation; database use; and ILL/document delivery activity will play a role in budget decision-making.
The significant evolution in collection development and access patterns requires enhanced communication between library staff and the faculty and students they serve. Ongoing dialogue will help ensure that the best choices are being made and that users are knowledgeable about emerging kinds of library resources in terms of access and intelligent use and the risks involved in some of these choices. The Library Liaison Program will continue to be the primary vehicle for this kind of contact.

Bullet Points: CB15 Says "No" To Brown Street Enlargement
Posted By Ned Berke On February 26, 2014 @ 2:47 pm In News & Features | 2 Comments
"Bullet Points [1]" is our format for Community Board 15 meeting coverage, providing takeaways we think are important. Information in Bullet Points is meant only to be a quick summary, and some issues may be more deeply explored in future articles.
Bunga-no! Community Board 15 voted last night to deny an application for a special permit to enlarge a single-family, one-story bungalow on Brown Street into a two-story residence, although much of the work appears to have already been completed.
According to the attorney representing the property, Alexander Levkovich, the owners of 2801 Brown Street are seeking to elevate the bungalow to comply with FEMA flood map recommendations. To do so, the attorney said, they'd have to see an increase in the permitted floor-area-ratio (FAR) – the formula used to determine how much square footage can be constructed on a given property.
But the attorney let slip seemingly contradictory statements that soured the Board's opinion of the project.
A photo of the property was shared with the Board showing the property, which has already been elevated and a second story added. The lawyer stated that work "up until what's been approved by the Department of Buildings" was completed, leaving boardmembers to wonder why a FAR waiver was needed since the building has already been raised.
Moreover, plans submitted with the application show more work adding height to the property. A diagram showed roof extensions yet to be added to the building.
Boardmember Ira Tepper questioned the attorney on whether the additional work, and thus the FAR waiver, was really being done to comply with FEMA recommendations or to allow for more living space.
"The construction that's going on now is strictly for the FEMA code? Or is there also construction going on for what you're asking for now?" asked Tepper.
"I'm not an expert in construction, but the building is being elevated to comply with FEMA," reiterated Levkovich, the attorney.
"It's a simple question: if you're raising it to comply with FEMA, it's all well and good," Tepper said. "But in order to do all this work that you want to do, that would have to be done before you raise the building. So what's going on there?"
The attorney could not answer.
The board voted 19-to-7 to reject the project, with two abstentions.
Boardmember Lenny Markh, who voted against the project, said the attorney appeared less than forthcoming about the purpose of the application.
"He had an entrance at grade level drawn into his plans, which is contrary to every flood resiliency design and doesn't appear compliant [with FEMA guidelines]," Markh said, implying that compliance with FEMA recommendations was not the purpose of the enlargement.

The cult of the Duce: Mussolini and the Italians
Duggan, C., Gundle, S. and Pieri, G., eds. (2013) The cult of the Duce: Mussolini and the Italians. Manchester University Press, Manchester. (In Press)
Full text not archived in this repository.
This is an edited volume of essays (to which I, as one of the three joint editors, have contributed three essays) that explores the cult of Mussolini from a variety of perspectives: historical, political, art historical, literary and cinematic. Much of the focus is on the period from 1919 to 1945, but there are also sections dealing with the cult of Mussolini after the Second World War.

Caution, we are a happy/fun shop!
You never know what antics the owner, Kathryn will be up to. We are ever changing and slowly increasing our merchandise while growing to meet our Quilting Peeps' (that's you!) needs. We are constantly looking for unique, few-of-a-kind products, local finds & interesting merchandise; and we pride ourselves on having a boutique like style. You won't find things crammed in floor to ceiling here and you will have plenty of opportunity to view all of our (soon to be yours) "stuff". I hope you enjoy watching us grow. We have already moved to a larger space than our original 20×20, and you'll find the new space to be open and light. Our classroom is brand new & equipped with design walls (for your use), padded chairs and Ott Lighting.

ASSSET partners with the Confederation of India Industries (CII)
I just arrived in Tucson a few hours ago from India after a very good trip.
I met with all the students at the two centers in Bangalore and one in Chennai.
In Chennai, I met Maya (not her real name) who was brought to Chennai by a relative who promised
to launch her career in Indian classical dance. Instead the relative sold her to a broker who drugged her and sent her off to Dubai where she became a sex slave. ASSET's NGO partner ICWO heard about Maya's case and launched a massive campaign. Three weeks later a drugged Maya was found by ICWO field workers near a railway station. Maya had a lot of questions about my family and spoke freely about her dreams for a better future using her newly learned computer skills.
My meeting with the Confederation of Indian Industries (http://www.ciionline.org) was very successful.
CII-southern region will be sending me a proposal for training 500 students from ASSET target group
in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Kerala in eleven specific industries where there is a severe shortage of skilled labor. Across India, CII has identified 25 areas and we will implement the same program
after the first pilot in Tamil Nadu. Initially ASSET will pay the fees of Rs. 5,000 per student ($125).
There is guaranteed placement in several fields and the Government of India will reimburse ASSET after
the students are placed so that the cycle can continue. CII will do the program evaluation and assessment.
The training in fields such as Electronics repair, Air-conditioning, Retail software training, Medical lab tech etc will be provided at approved and certified training centers and monitored by CII.
CII will charge a 10% fee and will bring in its wide network of CEOs as advisors as needed. As part of this package I have asked CII to evaluate the computer literacy programs in the 7 ASSET centers and also help in placement.
I have requested permission from donors for using their their donations for paying the student fees since other fields besides computer literacy were not included in my original request to them.
Thanks and regards.
Have a great weekend.

Catching Rabies – on DVD February 28th
Rabies surprises and shocks with its unexpected combination of horror and humor, of paranoia and panic. When a psychotic serial killer is on the loose, his path of rampage crosses paths with Ofer and Tali, a brother and sister combo who have run away from home. But when Tali becomes ensnared in the killer's trap, it is up to Ofer to find help. Left alone, Tali soon becomes mixed up with an unlikely group of characters, ranging from a set of tennis players to a squad of policemen. All the while, they continue to be stalked by the murderer – and when this assassin's identity is finally revealed, it turns out to be the biggest shock of all!

An Investor's Choice: J&J or Baxter International?
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Recently I read an article about the epitome of great dividend-paying companies, and it won't surprise many that it showcased Johnson & Johnson (JNJ).
What may surprise you is what I was reading was written back in the middle of January 2013, and the shares of JNJ were trading around $72 at that point. It referenced the fact that back then the dividend yield-to-price was nearly 3.4%.
As of Thursday, shares of JNJ hit a new 52-week high of $84.29, which drops to yield-to-price down to 2.9%. Perhaps that's why it ended the trading session lower at $83.18. Some investors are a bit queasy about getting less than a 3% dividend on what some call "The King of Dividend Growers."
Let's take a look at a one-year chart that illustrates where we have been and where we are with JNJ's stock price. This doesn't mean that JNJ isn't going to move up to $100 someday but earnings, revenue per share and the dividend itself will most likely need to go higher as well.
JNJ data by
Yet, we should also be prudent and note that as the dividend payout has increased so has the payout ratio. As of March 31, that payout ratio is now at 62%. For comparison one of its smaller competitors, Baxter International (BAX), with its 2.6% current yield-to-price, has a payout ratio of 38%. Before the U.S. markets opened on Thursday BAX announced that it achieved its first-quarter earnings and revenue expectations. The company also triumphantly confirmed its full-year guidance. Let's focus for a minute on what BAX does to drive sales growth and EPS numbers.

The staff members at Sylvan Learning's numerous study facilities understand that each child learns differently. Therefore, they don't try to implement a uniform tutoring system; instead, they design custom lesson programs based on the results of standardized testing, diagnostic tools, and one-on-one interviews.
Tutors work with students from kindergarten through grade 12, illuminating topics ranging from basic reading and writing to remembering complex algebraic formulas without having them tattooed on your chest. Many of Sylvan's instructors work in local schools, so they are intimately familiar with common curricula and understand how to gear lessons toward optimal results. After-school and summer classes can ready high-schoolers for the rigors of the ACT or the SAT, or they can help students to wow college-admissions officers with their superior essay-writing skills.
At Bay West Ballroom, students learn how to tango alongside their identical twin, whether they were actually born with one or not. The studio's eastern wall of mirrors stretches for 60 feet, ensuring that students' reflections are always visible as they spin on the sprung beech-wood floor. On the opposite side, windows admit sunlight and scenic views of the hills, creating an ethereal space where seasoned instructors demonstrate ballroom, Latin, and swing dance styles. Drawing from a diverse curriculum, these instructors cover a broad spectrum of disciplines that range from the cha-cha to the country two-step, encouraging practice in both the classroom and social settings. For example, lessons on popular salsa steps prepare pupils to spin at nightclubs, and wedding courses customize choreography to match a chosen song at elegant receptions.
Directors Mark and Andrea Nelson-Novak have both earned championship titles, and Andrea draws on a degree in biology to better inform her protégés on anatomy, movement, and the location of the body's rhythm glands. The pair enlists other experts—including US Country and Swing Champion Tony Gutsch and Grand National Latin Finalists Dima and Olga Sukachov—to helm specialized and regular classes. The team also hosts holiday parties each year.
After spending years as a salesman for top mattress lines, Steve Shore needed a new mattress himself. Rather than opt for a steep employee discount on one of the mattresses he sold, the enterprising Mr. Shore collected various natural materials and had them assembled into a mattress that met his exacting specifications: a comfy sleep cushion made with no potentially toxic components. The result was such an improvement over the big-name mattresses he sold that Mr. Shore and his son eventually decided to produce a line of organic mattresses based on the prototype, on which Mr. Shore slept soundly for more than a decade.
Now, the Shore men sell their mattresses under the Eco-Cloud name in The Natural Mattress Store. Made from high-quality steel coils topped with natural latex, Eco-Cloud mattresses resist accumulating allergens and nightmare blueprints and retain their shape and support for years. Organic wool and cotton covers help keep sleepers cool and snug in bed by deflecting body heat and wicking away moisture. Each Eco-Cloud mattress comes with a 12-year, nonprorated warranty. In addition to the Eco-Cloud line, The Natural Mattress Store carries more than 20 organic mattresses, as well as eco-friendly, solid wood bedroom furniture from Pacific Rim Woodworking, Bedworks of Maine, and Vermont Furniture Designs.
Over the past 25 years, Cheap Pete's framers have honed their technique to a science, creating high-quality framing for any type of artwork, document, or object. Four Bay Area locations stock a huge selection of ready-made frames, including environmentally friendly options crafted from sustainably harvested pine or bamboo. Collage frames display a multitude of photos, showcasing favorite family memories or charting the development of a tiny infant into an adult-size infant. Customers can also create DIY frames with a large selection of framing tools and supplies.
Cheap Pete's custom-framing services give customers the choice of more than 300 styles of mouldings, five types of glass, and a rainbow of mat colors. Shadowboxes display three-dimensional objects such as sports jerseys, matchbox cars, or exhibitionistic human beings. The shop also stretches canvases onto canvas bars, readying them to be hung at home or on the walls of a gallery.
Over the last decade, Lynne Klein has worked with hundreds of clients across the San Francisco Bay Area to create portrait art that entire families can cherish forever. A mother herself, Lynne falls back on her own life experiences to pluck fleeting moments from the passage of time and accentuates the importance of those moments with her photography. She often travels to picturesque sites to conduct on-location shoots, but her San Rafael boutique studio—complete with a skylight that brightens sessions with the sun's gleam and grins of on-looking spacemen—also drapes poses in a great deal of elegance. When the last bulb has flashed, Lynne turns the results into unique wall art, collages, canvas portraits, and more.
Big Jim's BBQ entrances diners with a menu of tempting contemporary and barbecue cuisine arranged by chef Jim Modesitt. Like the annual westward migration of wood-smoking grills, the sauce-slathered bill of fare unites gourmet California treats with rustic southern cooking traditions, pairing juicy pulled pork, chicken, ribs, and brisket with hearty risottos, traditional cornbreads and beans, assorted cheeses, and crostinis. As clients sup on the tasty bounty or enroll in courses to learn the dark arts of cookcraft from the kitchen's professional chefs and caterers, rich flavors and aromas lavish the nose and palate with a sensory celebration of fine food.

Curly's underwear
While going through the Mimiga Village, collect the Map item. Use the Map in the back room after taking out Curly in the Sand Zone to find a secret passage. Use the Map to reach the end of the passage, then use the "Look" command on the ledge on the left to get Curly's underwear.
Early Jet Pack
The Machine Gun can be used as a "jet pack" when its at Level 3. Just jump and aim it downward to float up until your ammo runs out.

After making the rocket that leads you to the last cave, do NOT talk to Momorin to receive your booster back. Instead, just take the rocket and keep your Mimiga Mask to see different dialog and some of the portraits displayed during the credits will be altered as well.
Powerful weapon hint
Instead of trading in your Polar Star for the Machinegun after defeating Curly in the Sand Zone, trade it and another weapon for an extremely powerful weapon later in the game called the Spur.
Bubbler weapon hint
Acquire the Jellyfish Juice and use it on the fireplace in the Assembly Hall in Mimiga Village to the Bubbler. You can hold DOWN when it is equipped and form a total of one hundred bubbles that deflect blockable enemy attacks and inflict plenty of damage because of all the sharp stars it releases. It is also useful when facing a lot of enemies, such as the hordes of birds that fly over to you and follow in the Sand Zone. Also, try it when in the Labyrinth and an enemy traps you by jumping up and attempting to attack. You can remain in any location and charge up the Bubbler; it will release the stars and hit the enemies for you. In the Sand Zone, use it as a shield and launch the stars. It can even be used to get the Arms Barrier. When fighting Monster X and he releases the heat-seeking fish-like missile projectiles, the Bubbler protects you and eliminates them in a single hit. You can also use it against Balfrog to block all his missile attacks.

Title: Cute Candle
Date: Jun 20, 2013
These were really cute. I only needed the red ones, and this was the only place I could find the striped candles.
They are a bit pricey, but given the fact I couldn't find them anywhere else, completely worth it.

The first event takes place from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 22, in Studio 1080, the Burns Technology Center's interactive multimedia center in the atrium of the EPS Building. The topic is viruses, which MSU scientists are studying in Yellowstone National Park and other extreme environments.
MSU Science Saturdays will be held monthly from November through March in Studio 1080, featuring topics like computers and hydrogen fuels. The Dec. 13 topic is magnetism.
"There is so much more to viruses than just making people sick," said Brian Bothner, an assistant professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry who will help host the first event. "Only a very small fraction causes disease in humans. We study viruses so that someday we can use them to kill cancer cells or build a computer so small that you need a microscope to see it, which I think would be pretty cool."
Science Saturdays are designed for kids aged 10 to 15, but younger kids may attend if accompanied by a parent. Everyone will participate in hands-on activities and learn about new research and technology. Attendees will also get their own MSU "SciPass" passport, which is stamped after completing activities and can be used at future SciSat events.
"Our goal is to show that science is fun, scientists are normal people and that MSU is doing some really cool stuff that kids would love to know about," said Trevor Douglas, director of MSU's Center for Bio-Inspired NanoMaterials, which sponsors Science Saturdays along with MSU Extended University and the Undergraduate Chemistry Club.
No registration is required; however, kids who do pre-register will receive a free MSU Science Saturdays prize.
For more information, a map and to register, go to: http://eu.montana.edu/SciSat or call 994-6550.
Martha Peters, Center for Bio-Inspired Nano-materials, 994-7658, firstname.lastname@example.com.

Supergood and tasty like toffee

This sugar gives a caramel-like flavour e.g., to pastries, cookies, crumbles and buns. It works well with pastries which contain a lot of butter as it turns into a kind of a fudge or caramel-like sauce. I use it in baking to replace plain white sugar to get more flavor. I also use it for decoration on top of buns. Once you get used to its taste, it is hard to live without it.
great raw product

Get Ready for a Choose Your Own Adventure Movie
Oh hello, nostalgia — 20th Century Fox is here to see you. The Hollywood Reporter writes that Fox is developing a movie based on the Choose Your Own Adventure book series. How exactly this will play out is hard to say, as it's unclear how you'd have an audience completely determine the plot of a movie while it's playing. The studio is hoping for a "crossplatform four-quadrant action-adventure franchise," so the Internet will be involved somewhere. Or maybe 50 percent of the audience will just be free to choose to watch a movie that ends after fifteen minutes because they picked an option in which the galaxy explodes.

What Employees Can Do
According to McAfee Global Threat Intelligence, "malicious URLs, viruses, and malware have grown almost sixfold in the last two years, and last year saw more new viruses and malware than all prior years combined."
In its latest report, Threat
Predictions 2012, the global team of security experts at M86®
Labs states that, "targeted attacks
will increase next year with a higher level of complexity, exploiting stolen
digital certificates, using zero-day attacks [software vulnerability exploits
for which security fixes from the vendor are not yet available] and multi-stage
Security is an increasing priority at organizations
worldwide, and it's no longer confined to the server room walls. Instead,
managing security and privacy involves everyone at your organization. But as
threat levels rise and more viruses attack your systems, are you doing
everything possible to control security threats?
What Your Tech Team
Can Do
Let's begin with your tech team and one of the most
vulnerable areas, email. When people at your organization communicate corporate
information within an email, this data is often loosely secured. To attempt to
secure these communications, you should employ systems either hosted outside or
on-premise that offer a way to contain the project and communication channels.
Examples include ApolloHQ, BaseCampHQ, FreedCamp, GoPlanApp, Central Desktop
and Yammer.
Also, you should implement technologies that scan all mailboxes and transports for keywords that may seem like an intellectual property breach—and monitor the data carefully. For file exchanges, use an outside file repository with a logging component like Dropbox or Google Docs. That way, you can track current and historic access and use of each file accordingly.
If you are not already doing so, encrypt connections with
SSL/TLS Certifications whenever possible and implement a spam filtering and
technology system to help protect from email viruses, spam and phishing
attempts such as: SPAMfighter Pro, CloudMarkDesktopOne Pro, Barracuda and
MailWasher Pro 2012.
To control the distribution and access to your intellectual
property, consider using a Secure FTP service on premise. This encrypts
commands and data so that private information is protected while being
transmitted over the network.
At the same time, implement firewalls and load balancers
in front of your Web farm to inspect packets and connections from Website
visitors. By doing so, you can optimize resources and avoid overload, while
blacklisting offending visitors who try to infiltrate your system.
These are just a few examples, and you should always be looking for new ways to increase security levels at your organization. But this is not enough. While you can take all of the precautions necessary using the latest technology advancements, none of this will do much good if you don't communicate security concerns and procedures with your entire organization.
What Employees Can Do
While security issues may come as second nature to you, remember
that employees outside your department are focusing on their core priorities and goals for the organization—not yours. With
this in mind, create processes to educate employees about threats, viruses and
security vulnerabilities within your organization. Start by setting up departmental
meetings to discuss privacy issues and what all employees can do to help the
company stay secure.
You may begin by reviewing Website and email processes.
If you have a system by which you track everything your employees do online, be
sure to let them know. This will cut down on unnecessary Web surfing, personal
emails and other online activities that take away from productivity and produce
a potential threat to the organization's security.
Also inform employees about email attachments. While you
may have systems running that do not allow potentially unsafe or private
attachments to be opened, employees may be unaware of the risks involved.
Let staff know that you have security processes in place,
but it's up to them to carefully review attachments or run them through
anti-spam software prior to opening them. Also, remind them to contact your
department whenever they receive a strange email or know of a potential
security breach.
Once the initial educational process ends, don't stop
there. Create an ongoing learning process to keep security top of mind. This
may include monthly meetings or newsletters that review current threats and
activities, the latest technologies the company has implemented and other
important security notes.
New-hires should be notified of rules and expectations at
the beginning of their employment to prevent bad habits from forming that may
jeopardize security. You may even consider creating contests or special events
to build awareness about security and privacy issues at your organization.
While you can use all of the technologies available to
avoid security threats at your organization, that is not enough. Your efforts
are only as good as the people running and using the processes put in place.Without a solid team—and respect for each other and the
business—breaches in security and privacy will undoubtedly occur. As a
technology leader at your organization, it's up to you to create practices that
not only help increase security and privacy, but also inform and educate
everyone involved on a regular basis.

Open Sound Control
|This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (August 2010)
|This article appears to be written like an advertisement. (April 2014)
Open Sound Control (OSC) is a protocol for networking sound synthesizers, computers, and other multimedia devices for purposes such as musical performance or Show control. Bringing the benefits of modern networking technology to the world of electronic musical instruments, OSC's advantages include interoperability, accuracy, flexibility, and enhanced organization and documentation.
OSC is a content format developed at CNMAT by Adrian Freed and Matt Wright comparable to XML, WDDX, or JSON. It was originally intended for sharing music performance data (gestures, parameters and note sequences) between musical instruments (especially electronic musical instruments such as synthesizers), computers, and other multimedia devices. OSC is sometimes used as an alternative to the 1983 MIDI standard, where higher resolution and a richer musical parameter space is desired. OSC messages are commonly transported across the internet and within home and studio subnets using (UDP/IP, Ethernet). OSC messages between gestural controllers are usually transmitted over serial endpoints of USB by being wrapped in the SLIP protocol.
OSC gives musicians and developers more flexibility in the kinds of data they can send over the wire, enabling new applications that can communicate with each other at a high level.
- Open-ended, dynamic, URL-style symbolic naming scheme
- Symbolic and high-resolution numeric argument data
- Pattern matching language to specify multiple recipients of a single message
- High resolution time tags
- "Bundles" of messages whose effects must occur simultaneously
There are dozens of implementations of OSC, including real-time sound and media processing environments, web interactivity tools, software synthesizers, a large variety of programming languages, and hardware devices. OSC has achieved wide use in fields including new computer-based interfaces for musical expression, robotics, video performance interfaces, wide-area and local-area networked distributed music systems, inter-process communication, and even from within a single application.
The TUIO community standard for tangible interfaces such as multitouch is built on top of OSC. Similarly the GDIF system for representing gestures integrates OSC.
OSC is used extensively in experimental musical controllers and has been built into several open source and commercial products, (See Implementations.)
The Open Sound World (OSW) music programming language is designed around OSC messaging.
OSC is also used as the heart of the DSSI plugin API, an evolution of the LADSPA API, in order to make the eventual GUI interact with the core of the plugin via messaging the plugin host. LADSPA and DSSI are APIs dedicated to audio effects and synths.
In 2007, a standardized namespace within OSC called SYN, for communication between controllers, synthesizers and hosts, was proposed, (See External links.)
OSC messages consist of an Address pattern, a Type tag string, Arguments and an optional time tag. Address patterns form a hierarchical name space, reminiscent of a Unix filesystem path, or a URL. Type tag strings are a compact string representation of the argument types. Arguments are represented in binary form with 4-byte alignment. The core types supported are
- 32-bit two's complement signed integers
- 32-bit IEEE floating point numbers
- Null-terminated arrays of 8 bit encoded data (C-style strings)
- arbitrary sized blob (e.g. audio data, or a video frame)
Applications commonly employ extensions to this core set. More recently some of these extensions such as a compact Boolean type were integrated into the required core types of OSC 1.1.
The advantages of OSC over MIDI are primarily internet connectivity; data type resolution; and the comparative ease of specifying a symbolic path, as opposed to specifying all connections as 7-bit numbers with 7-bit or 14-bit data types.

- Aestesis Elektronika
- AlgoScore
- Ardour
- AVSynthesis
- Bidule
- braid, a python3 OSC sequencer.
