LA Conservancy Tours Iconic 60s Sites, Takes us to Rarefied Heights at LAX Theme Building
Jackson Musker
The view from atop the LAX Theme Building, with Trudi Sandmeier of the LA Conservancy and David McCombs of LAWA. On Sunday, you can use the free telescopes to scan the horizon for planes...or the departures area for crazy drivers.
This Sunday, the LA Conservancy is hosting a tour of iconic 1960s structures around the South Bay. One of the highlights is the futuristic Theme Building at LAX, which is in the final stages of a massive renovation. Tourgoers will have access to the observation deck - open to the public for the first time since 9/11. Off-Ramp contributor Jackson Musker got a sneak peak earlier this week. (Follow the link for ticket info, and a movie shot atop the observation deck.)
An important message from the Conservancy about tour tickets:
You can purchase tickets ON TOUR DAY at The Proud Bird Restaurant, 11022 S. Aviation Blvd. in Westchester. Ticketing will be closed on our website over the weekend, but you can go there for more information on the tour.
If you can't make it to the tour on Sunday, check out the view from the observation deck here. It won't be open to the general public until the Spring...

Commencing a Gathering with Recitation of al-Fatiha? Answered by Dr. Abdullah bin Bayyah
Answered by Dr. Abdullah bin Bayyah | Translated by Suhaib Webb
The Question:
Is it okay to commence a gathering with recitation of the first chapter of the Qur'an, al-Fatiha (the Opening)?
The Answer:
Reciting the Qur'an is encouraged and not restricted to a specific time or place. Allah subhanahu wa ta`ala (exalted is He) says,
"[…] so recite what is easy [for you] of the Qur'an." (Qur'an, 73:20)
The bounties of reciting the Qur'an are plentiful! There are ten good deeds for each letter recited, as noted by the Prophet ﷺ who said, "I did not say that alif, lam and mim are one letter. But, alif is a letter, lam is a letter and mim is a letter." (Tirmidhi)
Abu Sa'id al-Khudari (`alayhi as-salaam – may Allah be pleased with him) relates from the Prophet ﷺ who related from his Lord (swt), "Whoever is so occupied with the Qur'an and My remembrance that he fails to supplicate to Me, I will grant him that which is better than those who supplicate." (Tirmidhi)
These proofs establish that reading the Qur'an is one of the most virtuous and most encouraged actions.
There is no text that sanctions reciting the Qur'an during a gathering at any one time—upon its inauguration, during it, or at its conclusion. If a person does so, contending that it is from the sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ, or a religious obligation, then he has contradicted Islamic Law. However, if he does so seeking the blessings of reading the Qur'an, then there is nothing wrong with that, God willing, according to the sound opinion which we have chosen.
This issue is a contentious one and revolves around what is known as "al-Bid'a al-Idaafiya."1 Most of the Maliki scholars disliked Bid'a Idaafiya, while other scholars considered this act, in particular, to be covered by the general evidences (that encourage one to read the Qur'an without restriction). In such situations, scholars such as al-Shafi'i, al-`Izz al-Din 'Abdul al-Salam and al-Qaraafi, from the Maaliki rite, applied the following legal axioms: "What is established by a general evidence, then its origin is permissibility or the presumption of continuity (istishaab)." Based on that, there is no problem (with taking either opinion). What should be stressed is that there should be no contention amongst the Muslims regarding this.
Anas (God be pleased with him) related from the Prophet ﷺ, "Do not hate one another, do not be jealous of one another, and do not desert one another." (Bukhari, Muslim)
Whoever wants to want to recite al-Fatiha (at such a gathering), then he should not be prohibited from doing so. Nevertheless, he should not claim that it is a sunnah – that the Prophet ﷺ began his gathering with it – because that is incorrect. With that in mind, if it is recited, seeking the blessings of the Qur'an and God's favors and rewards, then there is nothing wrong with that, God willing.
Allah knows best,
Dr. 'Abdullah bin Bayyah
Translated and Abridged by Suhaib Webb
- "This is a type of innovation which is added to a sanctioned act, such as making the ritual remembrance after prayer in unison in a loud voice. While the ritual is sanctioned, the method is not." – Suhaib Webb ↩

i've always wondered about that since coming form a Somali background i see a lot of the elderly reciting Al Fatiha at the end of a dua especially in a gathering. I had issues with it but deep down i though we are all reciting Fatiha to ourselves and anytime the Quran is recited is a good thing.
Alhamdulilah. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala shower his mercy on our scholars and the students of knowledge. Ameen
Assalaamu alaikum wa rahmatUllahi wa barakatuh,
May Allah bless the shaykh and reward him. ameen.
I do have one question, because I completely agree with the shaykh concerning the how the recitation of the Qur'an is always virtuous and should be done, yet I don't see why people would chose only surat al-faatiha. Why not surat al-Ikhlaas, or surat al-Maa'oon or any other surah? I am not a scholar, but I do support the position of many of the salaf who considered the sunnah of the Prophet salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam and his companions as sufficient and they stopped there.
Wa Allahu A'lam.
Asalamu alaykum,
Um Anas,
The sheikh did not say only Fatiha, but was answering a specific question. As for the salaf, it is authentically narrated that they would open their meetings and close them with the reading of Sura al-'Asr, and Malik would open his classes with the reading of the first of Sura al-Hujurat. Thus, one of the ways of the salaf was to recite the Qur'an before a gathering and at its closure, inshallah.
wa alaikum assalaam wa rahmatUllahi wa barakatuh,
Jazakum Allahu khaira.

Here's the joke told in West Virginia: You can shoot a deer, field-dress it and drag it for four hours, and, if you turn around, you can still see the gut pile. The state is known for its steep slopes.
West Virginia bowhunter Carson Birchfield wasn't worried about a tough deer drag on Dec. 1, 2007. In fact, he was hoping for a problem like that. And it seemed likely, as he watched chase after chase on the steep hillside above his treestand.
Just after daylight, Carson was able to see the source of all the noises he'd been hearing in the dark. He glimpsed a big buck chasing a doe.
"I knew things were going to get interesting then," he said. "I was already standing, facing the tree with my release hooked on my string loop to be ready for anything."
He'd put doe urine on his boots for the last 100 yards as he walked in that morning, and as he stood facing the tree, a small 6-pointer walked up from behind him, following the scent trail straight into the chase zone. Ten minutes later, another buck came along the same trail, this one with a deformed rack with four points on one side and a 6-inch-long spike almost angling into its eye on the other.
Carson had passed on both bucks earlier in the season.
"The second buck, with its nose to the ground, followed the 6-pointer right up the hill," he said. "It was so thick in there, all I could do was listen to the deer running around and around."
About 8:30 a.m., Carson spotted a huge buck as it hurried along another trail - not the same path the first two bucks had taken.
"I thought the buck would go right up the hill to the other deer, but it turned toward my stand," he said. "When it did that, I started to shake so badly I thought I would pull off my string loop.
"My knees were shaking. I could not hold them still. I tried to calm down and to not look at the antlers," he added. "My knees, however, never heard what I was saying. They just kept on knocking."
As the buck went behind a tree, Carson said a quick prayer and drew his bow. "The buck came all the way to the trail that the other bucks had used and stopped behind two small limbs," he said. "After what seemed like forever, all the while fearing the buck would bolt at any second from my life, I made the decision to shoot between the two branches."
Afterward, the buck bolted back downhill, but stopped about 70 yards away and turned to look back. Carson could see his arrow. It was too far back, but angling forward. The deer then walked out of sight.
Carson called his hunting buddy, Chris Stevens. Every Saturday, he drives the hour and a half to hunt with the Stevens family. The two met through work about three years ago.
Carson, Chris and several family members and friends were hunting in an area near Chris' house in Logan County. Chris had broken his leg that summer and was still on crutches.
Chris didn't want Carson to fire up the ATV out of fear it might spook the wounded buck, so he traveled about a quarter-mile on his crutches to Carson's stand. Soon thereafter, a group of trackers - Junior Hatfield, Steve and Terry Letart, Jarred Hensley and Will Stevens, Chris' son, assembled to begin the search.
"The tracking was easy. The trail was obvious, but it just wouldn't end," Carson said. "At 2 p.m., Junior and I decided to keep going. Junior deserves a lot of credit because he is an excellent tracker. Without him, I might have given up."
The two men tracked the deer until dark, when the sign indicated it had abandoned a four-wheeler trail and headed up a hill into brush. They made the hard decision to back out and return at daylight.
"It was hard to leave that trail, knowing how big a deer it was," Carson said.
"I'm sure there were several prayers said that night, asking for the Lord's help in holding off the forecasted rain so we could find my buck."
Chris' father, Larry, is pastor of Tamcliff Holiness Church, so the Stevens family didn't join the hunt the next morning, a Sunday. Larry Hatfield and Carson took up the trail at daybreak, and they didn't have to look very far.
"The blood trail continued for another 100 yards, and then it stopped at my buck," Carson said. "After a lot of celebrating and picture-taking, we returned to the truck."
They took the buck to Larry's house, in time for everyone to see it before church services.

Welcome to my World of Fairies, Fantasy and Folklore
My paintings range from the intricate through to the more whimsical side of fairy and each piece is embellished in some way with semi-precious stones, glass baubles and whatever takes my fancy.
Everyone loves fairies adults and children alike. They invoke memories of childhood; that secret hiding place, that invisible friend. And they are there to protect.
Let us never forget the magic they bring to our lives.

Updated: August 8, 2012 1:10PM
The Bulls signed first-round draft pick Marquis Teague, the team announced Wednesday. The Bulls took Teague with the 29th overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft.
The Indianapolis native comes to Chicago following a successful freshman year at Kentucky. Teague was one of two Wildcats to start all 40 games, as Kentucky posted a record of 38-2 en route to the 2012 NCAA National Championship. While with the Wildcats, Teague (6-2, 189) averaged 10.0 ppg, 4.8 apg (2nd in the SEC) and 2.5 rpg in 32.6 mpg. He also shot .412 from the field, .325 from behind the arc and .714 from the line. His 191 assists are the second-most assists by a freshman in UK history.
Teague will wear number 25.

I have a Sanke sitting around and needs a purpose. I am thinking about doing a 12-gallon or so batch, and using the Sanke for fermenting (This should be a good headspace/volume IMHO).
My thought though, is that I want to transfer (can do under pressure) from the Sanke in sections. Meaning, after fermentation is complete, I want to transfer 5-gallons to a serving corney. Which will leave 7-gallons remaining in the sanke.
It may be another month before I refill the corney with this brew.
If I keep oxygen out of he sanke as best as I can..can I get another month of leaving it in the sanke until I transfer to my serving corney with that headspace?
Fermenter 1: redFLYER (IRISH RED)
Fermenter 2: plainJANE (Summer brew)
Keg 1: redFLYER (IRISH RED)
Keg 2: WHER DID IT GOO?
Keg 3: ALL GONE-- oops!
Gallons under my belt since starting this hobby? 200
I assume you want to do this because you only have one corny keg? It would probably be all right as long as you transfer it using CO2 and then blanket the remaining beer with some CO2. The other way you could do it is force carb your first keg and transfer it into bottles. Then fill the keg again with the rest of the beer. That way you don't have to worry about beer sitting in the primary for potentially months.
Check out my nanobrewery!http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Two...02323289804018
If you're transferring under pressure, you're not risking oxidation -- you're adding CO2 to the fermenter to do the pushing, not O2.
That said, even with the price of corny kegs, why not just pick up a second corny and fill them both? I do 10.5 gallon batches so I can fill two cornies, and that way it frees up my fermenter for the next batch...
You are going to love fermenting in Sankes!! My one tip for you is to build some sort of keg washer. Mine is just a bucket, pond pump, and a capped and drilled sprinkler riser. Works really well though for cleaning.
I ferment in a 1/4bbl and I love. No light gets through, the bottom is sloped to get the most beer out when racking, and if I need to move it it's much easier to move than a carboy.
To clean I hit it with the garden hose first, dump it. Fill with chlorine/hot water solution and let it sit over night and rinse. Always comes out clean.
Does anyone ferment and carbonate in a sanke, then push to a corny to serve?
Yes. See the closed pressurized fermentation thread, or the wiki: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/wiki/ind...d_fermentation. I ferment in corneys and ramp up the pressure at the end of fermentation.

Oops! EPA goes off topic, tweets about KardashianJuly 22, 2014 @ 2:32 pm
More Photos
See all photos
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Environmental Protection Agency's fight to clean up water pollution got a splash of pop culture Tuesday, thanks to an Internet flub involving reality TV star Kim Kardashian.
The verified Twitter account for the EPA's Office of Water mistakenly published a message Monday night about an online game, "Kim Kardashian: Hollywood," in which players walk red carpets, attend photo shoots and get dolled up like a Kardashian. An agency spokeswoman said the off-topic tweet was done by an intern.
The government's tweet was removed within hours from the @EPAwater account, but not before a tweet from the account of Rep. John Dingell, D-Mich., the 88-year-old co-author of the Clean Water Act, poked fun by asking what a Kardashian is.
Dingell's account on Tuesday tweeted: "Staff has now informed me of what a Kardashian is. I'm only left with more questions."
The brief intersection between a celebrity and the federal agency in charge of tackling pollution gave an obscure EPA office a surge in popularity. Kardashian's lavish wedding to Kanye West made international headlines, and her show "Keeping up with the Kardashians" has been popular on the E! network for nine seasons.
The agency took the mistake in jest. On Tuesday, the EPA account thanked Kardashian for its 15 minutes of fame.
"Whoops . our bad. Sorry about tweet," the message read. "Upside - more attention for the Office of Water (water.epa.gov), thanks @KimKardashian."

Thanks Sensei! Went to the call this morning and found a tech sheet. It was no help. It actually slowed me down. The board on the oven was showing the door was locked when it wasn't. The dumb tech sheet said 'when the door is unlocked pins 1-3 should show no continuity' . It actually used the infinity symbol with "Ohm" beside it.
It then said ' when the door is locked pins 1-3 should show no continuity' using the infinity symbol with "ohm" beside it as well. I had a "duh" moment for a while as the pins on the oven were showing continuity with door locked and unlocked. I gathered myself, cursed the tech sheet and immediately disconnected the wires from the microswitch on the lock.
The customer-landlord was happy as the problem came after the tenant used self clean. Disconnecting the microswitch solved the problem and prevented the tenant from using self clean again.
The manual you sent has it correct...the tech sheet or more accurately, the tech sheet writer, was just plain dumb.

Today we see two parallel developments about psychopaths: alarmist media hype and continuing research rooted in decades of serious effort. The former threatens to erode the support structure of the latter.
Although psychopathy was recognized ages ago, even by early philosophers, it wasn't easy to devise a workable concept for diagnosis. Nineteenth-century alienists described it variously as "insanity without delirium," "moral insanity," and "psychopathic inferiority."

Health Groups Launch Ad Campaign Calling For Smoke-Free Kentucky
Ads Point Out State Has Nation's Highest Smoking and Lung Cancer Rates
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Jan. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Kentucky needs a comprehensive, statewide smoke-free law to protect all Kentuckians from harmful secondhand smoke and reduce smoking's health and economic toll on the state, according to a newspaper and online advertising campaign launched this week by a coalition of public health organizations.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20080918/CFTFKLOGO)
The ad can be viewed at http://tfk.org/kentuckyad. It contrasts things Kentucky is proud of, such as basketball and horses, with the fact it has the highest smoking and lung cancer rates in the country." Kentucky has a lot to be proud of, but not the fact that we have the nation's highest smoking and lung cancer rates. It's hurting our health and our economy," the ad states. "Each year, smoking costs us $3.8 billion in medical expenses and lost productivity, and too many people are exposed to secondhand smoke at work. That's why Kentucky health and business leaders support a statewide law to make all indoor workplaces smoke-free. We need a smoke-free law to protect all Kentuckians' health and the state's economy." The ad campaign is supported by the Smoke-Free Kentucky Coalition, the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The Smoke-Free Kentucky Coalition includes the American Cancer Society, American Heart Association, American Lung Association and many other health, business and community partners who are dedicated to making all indoor workplaces and public places in Kentucky smoke-free. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 29 percent of Kentucky adults currently smoke, giving the state the highest smoking rate in the country. Nationally, 19 percent of adults smoke. According to the National Cancer Institute, Kentucky also has the nation's highest incidence and death rates for lung cancer. Smoking causes 87 percent of lung cancer deaths. Kentucky also lags behind other states in enacting a comprehensive, statewide smoke-free law that covers all indoor workplaces, including bars and restaurants. To date, 24 states and Washington, DC, have enacted such laws. Polling has found that a majority of Kentucky voters, regardless of party affiliation, support a smoke-free law that includes all workplaces, restaurants and bars. Kentucky business leaders have argued that the state's high smoking rate and smoke-filled workplaces are undermining the state's economic competitiveness by increasing health care costs, harming workers' health and productivity, and making it harder to attract businesses. "A comprehensive, statewide smoke-free law would be a health win and an economic win for Kentucky, and it would protect everyone's right to breathe clean air," said Amy Barkley, chairperson of the Smoke-Free Kentucky Coalition. According to the U.S. Surgeon General, secondhand smoke contains more than 7,000 chemicals, including hundreds that are toxic and at least 69 that cause cancer. Secondhand smoke is proven to cause lung cancer, heart disease and other serious illnesses and is responsible for about 50,000 deaths each year in the U.S. The Surgeon General and numerous studies have also found that smoke-free laws protect health without hurting business.

|FHWA > Special Federal-aid Funding > SAFETEA-LU Section 1961 Allocation of FY 2006 Funds
Printable version of this memo (.pdf, 33 kb)
Section 1961 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU, P.L. 109-59) authorized $1,000,000 in contract authority to be appropriated from the Highway Trust Fund for fiscal year 2006 for the "I-95/Contee Road Interchange Study." The $1,000,000 authorization for FY 2006 is reduce to $990,000 after applying the one percent across-the-board rescission imposed in section 3801 of the Department of Defense, Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2006 (Title III, Chapter 8 of Public Law 109-148).
In applying the provisions of section 1102(f) of SAFETEA-LU and 110(e) of the Transportation, Treasury, Housing and Urban Development, the Judiciary, the District of Columbia, and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 2006 (Public Law 109-115) concerning redistribution of certain allocated funds, only the amount of this authorization, for which obligation authority (OA) is provided, will be made available. Therefore, only $861,300 of this $990,000 is available for FY 2006, because of the obligation limitation of 87.0 percent. The remaining funds will not be available for this activity, but are instead distributed to the States in accordance with section 1102(f) of SAFETEA-LU and 110(e) of the FY 2006 appropriations act.
Therefore, we are allocating $861,300 of program code LL30 funds and an equal amount of obligation authority (DELPHI Code 15X0R75002-050LL30500) to Maryland. These funds are subject to the annual August redistribution of OA. Any funds not obligated by the end of the fiscal year will be withdrawn, along with an equal amount of OA. Any withdrawn funds will be returned the following fiscal year with an equal amount of obligation authority. The Federal share for these funds is 100 percent, and the funds are available until expended. These funds are also not transferable.
By copy of this memorandum, we are requesting the Office of Financial Management process this allocation.
If you have any questions, please contact Joseph Taylor, of my staff, on 202-366-1564.

Forex Technical Update
Previous: AUD/USD Attacking Resistance and October High around 1.04 (10/31)
AUD/USD 4H Chart 11/1/2012 2:15PM EDT
Resistance: Following up with yesterday's (10/31) AUD/USD update, the 1.04 resistance area is starting to crack. the pair has been at it throughout October in an ascending triangle manner, with higher lows but the high being flat in the 1.0395-1.0410 area. As you can see in the 4H chart, the lower resistance of 1.0396 has broken, and the AUD/USD is now testing the next resistance pivot at 1.0410. The RSI is at 60, above which a bullish continuation momentum is at hand.
Breakout target: A break above 1.0410 opens up higher resistance pivots in the 1.0525-1.0530 area, and then the August and September highs near 1.0620.
Breakdown: A break below a near-term support pivot at 1.0350 refocuses the market on the support factors which area closer to 1.03. A break below 1.03 also should clear the rising October trendline support, and open up a bearish outlook, exposing the 1.0150 and 1.0175 lows.

Our Mission
To provide children with Autism an introduction to the lifelong sport of tennis.
A camp day features group tennis instruction, fitness training, a hands-on team building or social activity, snack and lunch (brought from home - no peanuts, please).
Our Coaches
Each camper will partner with a volunteer coach - local high school and adult community volunteers - who will encourage an interest in tennis while modeling appropriate on and off court behaviors. All of our coaches participate in a training session. We appreciate that our coaches give the time they can; not all coaches are available every day of camp or every year. Our Pro (lead tennis instructor) is at camp every day.
Our Facility
WSTA works in partnership with the Town of Simsbury Parks and Recreation Dept. We meet at the Henry James Middle School rain or shine and have full use of tennis courts, rest rooms, cafeteria and gymnasiums.

Latest Thinking
Safety first. Building a sustainable safety culture.
By: Claire Mattelet
At the regulatory level, compliance with proscriptive Environment Health & Safety (EH&S) legislations is now often critical to market access in many countries. But the importance of EH&S is even more far-reaching.
Reports show a clear link between the effective management of operational risks and increased productivity and efficiency. In other words, organizations with comprehensive EH&S programs achieve superior business results. They achieve higher employee retention, increased shareholder satisfaction and greater brand value.
However, to obtain the most sustained value from these programs, companies should not limit themselves to the implementation of tools and continuous improvement initiatives intended to mitigate risks behind potential accidents.
High performing companies in the EH&S space successfully implement within their organizations a robust safety culture. And safety pays back, not only through reduced accidents, injuries and fatalities, but also by improving overall productivity and motivation across the board.
As companies strive for zero fatalities and incident-free operations, the promotion of safe and healthy workplace environments has strengthened the EH&S agenda, and real progress is being made. In the past 10 years, the incident frequency rate has decreased significantly in many sectors, including oil and gas, metals and mining, steel and extractive industries, despite more complex processes and operations, and larger plants and assets.
Meeting the safety challenge
To ensure sustainable improvements in employee safety, along with enhanced productivity and efficiency benefits, safety cultures must be embedded in the fabric of the organization at all levels.
By making safety part and parcel of 'the way we do things round here,' companies will be able to accurately identify risks and manage them effectively throughout the workplace (and across their supply chains).
They will also be better able to recognize and address the underlying causes of workplace incidents, including stress, which can distract workers and increase their vulnerability to accidents.
Accenture's point of view
Based on Accenture's experience with companies in the oil and gas, nuclear, utilities, and metals and mining industries, we believe that sustainable, enterprise-wide safety cultures are built on progressive cultural change at all levels of the organization. To enable this, we have developed a proprietary framework for change with training and awareness at its heart.
We strive to ensure that safety cultures are created and sustained for the long term at our clients. The benefits include:
Improving management of regulatory compliance and operational risks
Reducing cost through better planning and foresight (i.e. in insurance premiums)
Promoting continuous improvement and best practices to raise productivity and achieve greater quality control. This further influences the brand image and impacts employee retention.
Accenture's approach
The journey to a sustainable safety culture is challenging, calling for a progressive process of change throughout the organization.
Our framework for change enables an enterprise-wide approach. In addition to redefining processes and setting metrics that ensure performance is improved on a sustainable basis, we deploy awareness and training sessions to foster behavioral change at every level of the organization. Accenture's unique holistic approach is reflected in its integrated methodology that not only provides an end-to-end solution, but is also flexible in order to meet companies' varying needs, from pure strategy work to culture transformation. Because this is a learning-driven process, training plays a crucial role from the outset. We have developed a flexible suite of training assets that form part of our proprietary framework for change.
Training tailored to every level of the organization
Our approach to training and awareness is fully customizable to meet the specific needs of each client. Based on a structured sequence of training modules, delivered locally and online and supported by proven change management techniques, we provide a comprehensive approach which influences and changes behaviors.
Our experience shows that successful implementations are designed to tackle each layer of the organization's culture.
Already tried and tested with Accenture clients from several industries, our training modules and training sessions can be adapted to address production imperatives and other local requirements. And because organizations' safety agendas vary, the modules can be delivered to focus on one specific topic or be delivered as part of a full program.

FOLIO: Personalities -- The Blog People Page
The Anatomy of Addictive Content AppsPJ Gurumohan
Weãre addicted to mobile content. We use our tablets to lull us to sleep. We use our smartphones as alarm clocks, we bring our phone to the bathroom for reading material, and we have panic attacks when we realize that weãve left our mobile device at home orãheaven forbidãlost it. According to a poll by Time Magazine, ã1 in 4 people check their smartphones every 30 minutes and 1 in 5 check it every 10 minutes. A third of respondents admitted that being without their mobile for even short periods leaves them feeling anxious.ã In fact, they compare mobile content addiction to a form of sustenance and point that, ãtwice as many people would pick their phone over their lunch if forced to choose.ã
So, what are we spending so much time on? According to a new study by Flurry, we spend 80 percent of our time inside of apps. Not all apps are created equal. Some apps we open once in a while and some we check many times a day to read or view real-time updates.
Most magazines delivered on mobile apps are in the form of PDFs which often have low star ratings based on their interactivity limitations, dated content, and a long download process. What weãre doing, the industry standard, is clearly not working. We need a new approachãrealtime content apps.
Real-Time Content Apps Have 3 Things That Make Them Addictive
Letãs break down what makes a real-time content app addictive:
- Updated Frequently or in Real-Time: The 30-day content package, delivered as a downloadable PDF, is going to become a thing of the past. In todayãs world of Twitter-speed content, consumers are demanding content at a volume and pace that will only increase as new generations of young people grow up in a ãmobile firstã world. Addiction is created when new content is available every time a user opens an app. When consumers are sustained on a steady diet of new content, they will always come back to check out whatãs new, different, and fresh.
- Highly Curated: In the web world, the name of the game is about high volumes of content with each page providing opportunities for online advertising. Search becomes how we curate self-contentãhow we separate the wheat from the chaff and focus in on what is of most interest to us. In the mobile world, the, ãLetãs throw all of our content onto a mobile device,ã doesnãt work because screen real estate is a much more precious asset. Instead, itãs up to the publisher to be highly selective and only deliver the best content to create high levels of engagement for each user. Think about it. Publishers can know who a person is, what they are interested in, where they are, andãin some casesãknow what they are doing. Delivering highly curated content, and advertising, becomes a real possibility and will open up new monetization opportunities.
- Integrated with Other Media: Flat PDF-like apps retain the elegance of the print experience, but they miss out on all of the interactive, immersive experiences that can be delivered and give content more context for a richer, more meaningful experience. An article can be accompanied by interactive maps, video, social media, commerce, and even connect to calendars, to-do lists, and more.
Area1: A Realtime Content App that is Truly Addictive
A fantastic new example of realtime content app is the free Area1 app for iPhone, powered by GENWI, which has a 5 star rating and 39 reviews currently in iTunes. It gathers interesting content from around the web with a unique content that ranges from neon waterfalls to an inside look at the Porsche Panamera hybrid. For example, in a recent article from Mashable about Ken Block and his romp through Russia with his GoPro camera, the curated includes the article a video clip from YouTube, a link to GoPro website, and bonus materials from Mashable about 10 crazy ways to use GoPro cameras.
Because of the handcrafted curated content, the daily updates, and the tight integration with other relevant digital content, it is sure to become part of your daily app addiction.
Engagement Becomes Hourly Actives. Think TV Primetime.
As opposed to the 30-day packaged PDF, real-time content apps open up new possibilities, in terms of engagement and monetization. In the ãnewsstandã world, engagement is a long download. In the web world, we look at daily actives, time spent, unique views, etc., and we treat every hour equally. But, in the real-time content world, we need to think of mobile users more like television viewers. Usage of each device goes in waves throughout the day and peaks at the traditional TV primetime slotãat 9pm, according to a new study by Chitika. Not surprisingly, they also found that smartphone usage is high during commuting hours and tablet usage peaks in the evening.
These trends are incredibly important for creators and curators of real-time content apps. Special content can be delivered at particular times, in specific time zones (based on GPS data), and paired with context-aware advertising. The possibilities are endless. Of course, we canãt get there overnight. As in industry, itãs imperative that we begin to experiment to realize the full potential of the realtime content app opportunity.More...
Donãt Kill Your App: Five Rules for Getting iPad Publishing RightPJ Gurumohan
Jason Pontin, editor of MITãs Tech Review, recently announced that, after much pain and expense, the Tech Review is abandoning native apps for the iPad and other mobile devices. Describing the publications experience with app developmentãwhich involved spending $124,000 on software development and selling only 353 iPad subscriptionsãPontin reports that, ãLike almost all publishers, I was badly disappointed. What went wrong? Everything.ã
It didnãt have to be this way. Tablets like the iPad offer rich possibilities for telling engaging stories that take readers well beyond the print experience, with the portability to enjoy that experience anywhere, anytime. But to fully realize that potentialãwithout the high cost and frustration seen by Tech Reviewãpublishers must think more holistically about their long-term strategy for delivering a fresh, high-quality experience across all mobile devices. A few simple rules can guide you to the right strategy for your publication and readers.
Rule 1: Remember the business youãre in. Publishing is supposed to be about contentãnot code. If you find yourself hiring separate development teams or agencies to create your HTML website, iOS apps, and Android apps, then something has already gone wrong. The right digital strategy will allow you to focus your resources on creating great experiences for your readers, not paying an army of developers to replicate those experiences in different languages for different form factors.
Rule 2: Donãt settle for static pages. Like many publishers, Tech Review began with the approach of replicating its print edition page by page in PDF form. The whole point of digital media is to do things that arenãt possible in print, using interactivity, rich media, social sharing, and other web-like capabilities to engage readers more deeply. And what reader wants to sit around waiting for an entire 96-page PDF to download before they can start exploring its content? As with a desktop website, publishers should curate their content for mobile engagement and focus on delivering the right experience for the right device at the right timeãinstead of trying to turn tablets into a paper delivery device. Tech Review realized their error and have since taken the PDF replicas off of their app and now have live streaming articles.
Rule 3: Donãt chain content to design. Editors shouldnãt have to deal with design code or the mechanics of layoutãespecially when that layout will have to change depending on the device a reader uses to access an article. Instead, designers can create templates in standard web protocols that allow editors to choose whatever layout they want, without the risk of breaking the design. This allows editors to focus on editorial, and designers to focus on design, while providing unlimited flexibilityãand creativityãto present each article in the best way for each platform.
Rule 4: Think about the day after launch. A digital edition is never truly ãput to bed.ã A mobile app needs to be updated constantly with fresh content, enhanced usability, and new features. How will you get this done and who will do it? If you hired a development firm to build your app, then will you have to keep paying them for every change? If you build it in-house, will your editorial team be constantly at the mercy of your IT departmentãs workload? Find a simple, cost-effective way to flow your content everywhere your readers want to experience it or youãre likely to find yourself sharing in Tech Reviewãs misery.
Rule 5: Make friends with the cloud. The platform-independent nature of the cloud is a precious gift for publishers. Instead of having to create, update, manage, and analyze separate apps for iOS , Android, and HTML5 apps in addition to their mobile website and desktop website, a cloud-based strategy makes it possible for content to be published once, and then enjoyed on any device. Similarly, updates can be performed once in the cloud, and propagated automatically at the same time across both smartphones and tablets. The same is true for monetization and analytics, which are unified in the cloud rather than being fragmented in platform-specific silos. The cloud could have saved Tech Review a lot of time and moneyãand saved its native apps from their impending demise.
The iPad and other tablets were supposed to be a boon for the publishing industry, giving content creators new ways to connect with and engage readers. This potential still existsãin fact, itãs stronger today than ever. By learning from the mistakes of the first wave of PDF replicas and development-intensive app strategies, publishers can find the mobile success theyãve been looking for--in the cloud.

Weird Clouds Overhead (Photos)
Sometimes, you just want to kick back, nestle yourself in the grass, and peer up at the great blue sky. Look at those cloud formations! What do you see? A dinosaur? A football? Danny DeVito (sorry, he's been on our mind a lot recently)?
Luckily, the internet has provided heaps of footage documenting the creepier, weirder clouds that may have simply (and literally)
passed you by.

Wow, great shots! These weird cloud formations look like something you'd see in the skies of another planet. This shows that our own world still holds plenty of wonders and surprises.
I recognize the first cloud formation; it's called mammutus (udder) clouds. It was in the news earlier this year because it appeared over Manhattan on June 26. The date is easy to remember because the day before, Michael Jackson died. Some people claimed they saw his face in the clouds!
Keep up the good work.

Michele Bachmann Overdrive
August 5, 2011 - John Stack
I will say right off Michele Bachmann is no Sarah Palin. Its always been unfair to compare her and Sarah Palin mostly just because they are women. Yes, they both are nutty right wing ideologues. But, Michele is no Winker, literally and figuratively. She is more along the lines of Rand Paul fiscally and evangelicals socially (in fact she is a dyed in the wool evangelical). Bachmann would destroy Palin in a debate on issues, as my guess is Bachmann wouldn't wink, say 'you betcha' even once and would know Milton Friedman isn't the psychiatrist from M*A*S*H. But this is what makes Bachmann much worse. Years ago, Minnesota voters got drunk and went to the polls and voted for WWE Superstar Jesse 'The Body' Ventura. They woke up with a hangover, an odd tattoo they didn't remember getting that said 'Mindy' and the queasy feeling they just elected a pro wrestler governor. This time, the sober among them are hoping they get to vote for Michele Bachmann for president. And that's scary.
Somehow a person who's main political thrust is to stop gay marriage is one of our dominant political party's darling. It still boggles my mind that this topic is at the federal level. Its like trying to legislate rainfall. Her husband has even accepted over $125,000 in Medicaid money to his clinic to help gays pray themselves straight. (From the guy who currently leads the list as the most in-the-closet homosexual denier in America). On the plus side, she has also taken an indeterminate thousands of taxpayer dollars to take in pregnant unwed teens.( Sarah Palin only accepted one stupid unwed teen into her house, and she didn't ask for any federal assistance).
But her biggest problem is her complete lack of understanding of macroeconomic issues, such as TARP and the federal deficit. This is how she spoke about raising the debt ceiling "This Republican will not vote to raise the debt ceiling, my colleagues will have to come to their own conclusion." Not just her colleagues, only virtually everybody with any financial or economic background or rationality have come to the conclusion that her fiscal ideas might work as den mother of the cub scouts, but not for the biggest and most powerful and influential economy on earth. She says she would have defaulted on the debt rather than raise it. Forget that the debt ceiling is really to pay for expenditures all ready approved by congress and doesn't actually commit to any new spending at all. What would be her fiscal move? You can't just cut 2 trillion dollars TODAY. There are things that have to be paid right now. Or does she mena we just stop paying federal workers – right now- until we make up $2 trillion? Stop paying all of our vendors – right now – so that the electricity and heat and hot water to run all federal offices stops right now? Do we stop paying – right now- for gasoline to run our governments planes, cars and tanks? All federal workers will have to walk to appointments outside of their buildings and our soldiers in Iraq and Afganistan will fight without vehicles or air or naval support or radar help? Be pretty soon Bachmann would be saying 'Oh, well, not THAT!'. I think she meant stop paying the principal on our debt, just interest. Huh? We now owe over $12 trillion! The one thing that is trusted the world over – from an Al Queda soldier in a cave to a miner in Irkutsk to a cab driver in London is the US dollar and the full faith and credit of the United States. But, she would send interest rates rocketing; our deficit would actually go UP financial markets would implode, but she would be able to make a (misguided absurd) political point. Bachmann claims Treasury secretary Geithner has the ability to choose what debts to pay (true) and that if we default on our debts, he would be the one to cause it! May be true technically, but where else would we cut (see above).
It almost goes without saying that Bachmann also voted against TARP and the auto bailouts. Yes, she says, she would have let the banks default and go into bankruptcy. Yes, she would have let the auto companies fail. Somehow American workers losing trillions in their banks and hundreds of thousands of auto workers losing their jobs was the better alternative.
Finally from the disenchanted sun of the man responsible for injecting evangelicanism into our political world, Frank Schaeffer :"Michele Bachmann says certain things that sound crazy to the general public, But to anybody raised in the environment of the evangelical right wing, what she says makes perfect sense."
(PS – sorry Jesse to implicitly compare you to Sarah Palin. Maybe you should challenge her to a cage match)

Lately I've been asked about the movement sweeping the nation to eat locally and seasonally. Farmer's markets have sprung up in almost every town in western Washington and more chefs and home cooks are proud of using the seasonal products produced by local farmers. The funny thing is that eating local, seasonal food in most other countries is simply called "eating."

Member since
I'm 5'5" and about 128. Should I get a medium or a small? I usually wear smalls... but I really don't want this jacket to be to tight because I'm going to be using it for skiing and snowboarding.
Moriah Roberts
Member since
Well Allison I wear a medium and Im similar in size. One thing I would say is that if you usually wear smalls in clothing I would just ask yourself this. Are the smalls you wear tight or are they baggy? If they are loose than you would probably wear a small, however, if they are tight I would go for the medium because like you said you want it to be loose for shredding.

This week's lab will give you practice with common bioinformatic tools for multiple sequence alignment. Specifically, you will complete a tutorial on using ClustalX. Second, you will complete a homework set of problems that will ask you to think more closely about the algorithms we have discussed in class. You may work closely in discussing these problems with one other person, but your answers must be submitted individually. Please write the name of your co-worker at the top of the assignment. You should hand in a paper copy of your solution in class, Thursday, February 21. Supplementary materials (e.g., code) should be submitted using handin68.
To begin, read this tutorial on using ClustalX. I have placed two sets of sequences you can use to test out Clustal in your labs directory: DnaB.txt which is a small set of medium-length protein sequences, and sequences12.txt - a large set of myosin heavy chain proteins. You will run ClustalX by entering the following command:
$ /usr/swat/bin/clustalx-2.1/clustalxYou will probably want to increase the font size open starting the program up as the sequences are hard to read.
You can begin by using the quick start guide on your DnaB.txt file. Then, read the rest of the document testing out different parameters to see how they alter your results.
Once you complete the document and analyze both sequences, answer the following questions:
Srand(0,1) = -6 Srand(0,2) = -7 Srand(0,3) = -4 Srand(0,4) = -7 Srand(1,2) = -8 Srand(1,3) = -6 Srand(1,4) = -3 Srand(2,3) = -8 Srand(2,4) = -6 Srand(3,4) = -5For S_max, I incorrectly stated that you should use the maximum score in the matrix. If you did this, no worries just note this on your results. As the book points out, though, the maximum score is the maximum possible score for the alignment. To calculate S_max for a pair of sequences x and y, perform Needleman-Wunsch for an alignment of x to x, and then for y to y, the finally take the average of these two scores as S_max. The max scores for the 5 sequences are respectively 10, 9, 7, 9, 8.
When updating the distance matrix, it is acceptable to either take the average distance of all pairs or to pick the minimum. So, for example, if you merge sequences x and y into one cluster, the distance between {x,y} and z is the either the average or minimum of the individual pairwise distances d_xz and d_yz. I'll assume you are using the minimum, simply state otherwise if you use the average. Also, logs normally are calculated using the natural log. If you used a different log base, just state which you used.
You must hand in an individual solution in class on the due date. You must also write the name of the individual you discussed problems in detail with. You may talk about high-level concepts with as many individuals as you like (for example, the paper on T-Coffee). But you are only allowed to work on the specific problems and their solutions with one person in the class. Supplementary material should be handed in using handin68.

When a train explodes in 1899 Missouri, the prime suspect flees to Chicago to track down the gangsters who framed him and joins the PI agency chasing him in Eddie Campbell's The Black Diamond Detective Agency.
For Fans of...
The grimy atmosphere Campbell brought to Alan Moore's From Hell script.
Does It Deliver?
Despite Campbell's loose, evocative brushstrokes, the story (from C. Gaby Mitchell's unshot screenplay) is awkward and bumpy. B-
