Something to Chew On
Sana'a is not only the capital of Yemen. It's also the plastic-bag capital of the world. All this litter is a sign of trouble to come—but it also explains why the Yemenis don't really seem to care.
In early April, Yemen's new president, Abdraduh Manser Hadi, sacked the head of his Air Force. Not one to go quietly, the general surrounded the airport at Sana'a, Yemen's capital, with his troops, and then said he'd shoot down any plane attempting to land. I was just then on my way there from nearby Dubai. I was going to Sana'a to see about the television business, and then meeting some friends and heading for Socotra, a small island between Yemen and Somalia. Well, my flight was cancelled, but the situation sorted itself the next day when the general gave in and flights resumed.
It was a fitting start to my trip to "post-revolutionary" Yemen, a beautiful but poor country that maybe had the softest landing of any country touched by the Arab Spring. The next week or so in Yemen was ever eventful, as I encountered or heard about: tsunami alerts, flooding from monsoon rains, battles with al-Qaeda militants, drone strikes, electrical blackouts, warnings about Somali pirates, the steady sight of heavily armed men with daggers tucked in their waistbands, and a new State Department advisory saying not just "don't even think about going to Yemen" (they say that about almost everyplace) but, if you are there, "get the hell out." On top of all this, there was a garbage strike. It was the garbage strike that really caught my eye. Well, it would have caught anyone's eye. Sana'a, normally an enchanting dreamscape of an ancient city, had become a river of plastic bags, piled high against curbs and walls, filling empty lots and median dividers. On top of the piles were goats and feral cats, methodically ripping the bags open, one by one.
Here is the nightmare: the drug khat requires enormous amounts of water for cultivation. Sana'a is already projected to become the first world capital to run out of water.
Plastic bags are a blight I know a lot about. My father was in the paper-bag business, so the rise of the plastic bag was something of a family setback. This ill wind for the Frestons was nothing compared with the ill wind for the environment as a whole. Plastic bags never go away. It is said that they may take 500 years or more to biodegrade. Sana'a is said to be one of the world's longest continually inhabited cities—people have been living there for 2,500 years. That is a very long time, but it's only five lifetimes for a plastic bag. More important, plastic bags speak to a much deeper danger to dreamy Sana'a.
Yemenis are litterbugs by nature. They often joke that the national tree is the "plastic-bag tree"—windblown, with a blanket of red, blue, and clear plastic bags covering its branches. You see them all over the place. Every country has a plastic-bag litter problem, but Yemen could be the world leader on this score, even without its garbage strike. Why is that? Well, it's connected to narcotics. About 90 percent of the adult-male population in Yemen chew khat, a mild, very pleasurable (I can assure you) narcotic that comes in leaf form. They chew it for hours on end, building up huge "khat wads" in their cheeks. This is pretty much a daily affair (workdays are short in Yemen, from nine a.m. until two p.m., when the khat chewing begins). These khat chews usually occur in comfortable quarters—rooftop mafraj rooms, complete with cushions and great views. And how is all this khat packaged? Well, in those plastic bags you see all over the street. A well-connected Yemeni friend tells me that well over 50 percent of the plastic-bag litter is left by euphoric khat chewers.
All this is not so bad. Certainly the drug users could be a bit tidier, and on the drug-danger scale, khat is relatively harmless. Here is the nightmare, though: khat requires enormous amounts of water for cultivation. Sana'a is already projected to become the first world capital to run out of water. It's parched there now, and experts estimate that by 2025 this city of 1.7 million will have run dry, potentially turning Sana'a into a ghost town, sort of an Arabian Mad Max movie set. It is estimated that 60 percent of Yemen's available water is now used to cultivate the khat needed to satiate the cravings of the khat chewers. Plastic bags, then, are really just the tip of the iceberg (an iceberg, by the way, is something the Yemenis could most surely use).
Saudi Arabia, Yemen's neighbor to the north, will never have this problem. Khat is illegal there and the penalties are harsh, including even death for "trafficking." In Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and other neighboring places, it is also illegal. Some people have even received life imprisonment just for possession of it. But khat is perfectly legal in Yemen and thoroughly ingrained in Yemeni culture. Politicians who have tried to curb it or outlaw it have never lasted in office. Yemenis you talk to about the problem acknowledge the issue, but say things like "without khat there can be no Yemen." They love its power to drive witty conversation, to cement friendships, to improve concentration, and, in the last phase of the khat high, to create a great sense of well being. The new Yemen has a lot to deal with—problems like al-Qaeda, separatism, high birth rates, extreme poverty, illiteracy—but the most critical and existential problem may well be in balancing their intoxicant of choice with their scarce resources. What Yemen needs to overcome is the very sense of well being that khat instills—a state of mind that allows Yemenis essentially to chew away their future.

NACO Exposure Time Calculator
This is now supported by the NACO ETCs (imaging and spectroscopy).
In the Target Input Flux Distribution field, you can select a spectral type and filter magnitude for the target. Alternatively, you can choose to specify the target with a blackbody temperature (and a filter magnitude). In spectroscopic mode, you can choose to specify a single emission line instead. In the Reference Source Parameters field, information about spectral type and filter magnitude is entered for the reference source.
The target model can be defined by the target's spectral type. It uses a template spectrum, which is scaled to the provided magnitude and filter. The spectral type is used to make the color correction. Currently, template spectra are only covering JHK bands (wavelength < 2.5 microns).
You must select the filter and filter magnitude (Vega mag) for proper scaling of the template spectrum. Available filters are V, J, H, K, L and M. For extended sources, the magnitude must be given per square arc second.
The geometry of the target will affect the signal to noise, since extended sources will cover a wider area of the detector. You can either select:
If point source is chosen, the target object is assumed to be an emitter with negligible angular size. This can be selected for objects with an angular radius of much less than the sky-projected pixel size, see the NACO instrument page or the user's manual. For imaging, the S/N is given in an area of radius equal to 1.22*lambda/D, which is 70 mas for an 8 m diameter telescope observing in the center of the K band (2.2 microns). In spectroscopy, the S/N reference area is a rectangle with dimensions*1.22 lambda/D the spatial direction and the slitwidth in the perpendicular direction.
If extended source is chosen, the target object is assumed to be an emitter with a uniform intensity distribution. In this case, the S/N on the result page is given per pixel element of the detector.
The seeing FWHM in V band, at Zenith(airmass=1). NACO is the only instrument that requests users to enter the seeing at Zenith in their phase I proposals.
The airmass at which the observation is performed.
The sky flux is based on a model with absolute flux calibration that takes into account thermal background and OH lines.
The effect of the neutral density filter is to reduce the flux (count rate). Currently only applicable to some filter configurations: those with central wavelengths in range [1.0 - 2.5] microns (1.25% transmission) or in range [2.5 - 5.0] microns (2.00% transmission).
A Wollaston prism system can be placed in the beam to examine the polarization of the target. When used, two images will be produced. Since the Wollaston prism has an efficiency of 90%, each image will have 45% of the light in case the light is NOT intrinsically polarized. The numbers on the result page correspond to one such image. The Wollaston prism cannot be applied with the J filter.
The NAOS dichroic determines the waveband which is diverted from the beam to the wavefront sensor. In combination with the filter, this determines the wavefront sensor to be used. Since the light not transmitted through the dichroic is used by the AO system, it is optimal to use a dichroic that has LOW transmission in the waveband where the reference source has maximum flux, and HIGH transmission in the waveband where the target has maximum flux.
From version 3.2.6, the NACO ETCs make a HTTP call to the NAOS-PS server which returns the AO-preformance estimate to the NACO ETC. This approach makes it possible to have a new dichroic option "FREE" in the ETC; when this option is chosen, the NAOS-PS will always try to optimize image quality / the flux for NAOS, which, in some cases, may not be optimal for the science goals (and then the dichroic should be selected by the user).
Choosing the instrument filter determines in which band the observation will be performed. The magnitude parameters for object and sky are transformed (again, using the corrections given in Effective Temperatures and Intrinsic Colors for Main Sequence(V), Giant (III), and Supergiant (I) Stars by A.T.Tokunaga, and narrow filter corrections) to the observation band selected by choosing an instrument filter.
Here you can choose the objective for the CONICA camera. Five objectives are available,
, with focal ratio of 13, 27 and 54 respectively. The Nyquist sampling depends on the wavelength, thus different focal ratios offer adequate sampling of the PSF by the detector at different wavelength regions. S13 samples the PSF in the J filter, S27/L27 samples PSF in the K filter, and S54/L54 samples the PSF in the M filter.
The ETC does not support the SDI objective, but some information can be found in the NACO user's manual to estimate S/N for the SDI objective.
You must supply information about the total observation time. This can be done in terms of DIT (Detector Integration Time), which is the duration of individual exposures, and NDIT (Number of DIT's), which is the number of exposures. The total exposure time is the product of DIT times NDIT. This exposure time does not take into account instrument and telescope overheads.
Alternatively, you can specify a signal to noise ratio, in which case the ETC will compute the minimal number of individual exposures (each of duration DIT) required to reach the requested S/N ratio.
Since P71, NACO imaging can be performed in two exposure modes, either chopping or non-chopping. The Chopping mode can only be used for observations in M' (mandatory) and L', NB_3.74 and NB_4.05 (optional).
The S/N ratio in chopping mode is approximately reduced by a factor 1/sqrt(2). Please find more details about chopping in the NACO user's manual.
For the chopping mode of NACO, the user selects the total exposure time, in minutes. The DIT (Detector Integration Time) depends on the instrument configuration. It will be set to the relevant minimal DIT. The NDIT (Number of DIT's) is then found from the total exposure time, by dividing with the DIT.
Detector on-chip integration time for one exposure (in seconds). Limits for saturation and non-linearity depend on DIT for small DITs.
Indicate here a S/N value and choose a DIT, to get an estimate on how many exposures (NDIT) will be needed to achieve it.
The Exposure Time is the product of DIT and NDIT .
The total exposure time is therefore DIT x NDIT .
For the purpose of presenting the results of the calculations of the NACO Imaging ETC, you can choose from the following output options:
Toggling this option will display two images (jpg format) of the Point-Spread Function (PSF), the first one with a linear color scale and the second one with a logarithmic color scale. In addition, a 2D FITS file with the PSF will be available for download. Note that these are monochromatic PSFs computed by the NAOS-PS software for the central wavelength of the filter used in the simulation.
The pixel scale in the fits image corresponds to lambda / 2D, with D being the diameter of the telescope. More information on the simulation parameters is available in the FITS header.
Toggling this option will display a plot of the Encicled Energy (EE) as a function of the aperture radius (arcsecs). A cross of two lines will indicate the selected aperture radius r and the value EE(r). The default aperture radius is 1.22*lambda/D (D=8.2m).
Toggling this option will display the S/N as a function of exposure time. For point sources the S/N is calculated in the area of the diffraction limited core, radius equal to 1.22 lambda/D, which is 70 mas for an 8 m diameter telescope observing in the central K band (2.2 microns). For extended sources, the S/N is calculated per pixel element, using the surface brightness in magnitudes per square arcsec.On the results page, the input parameters are repeated, the NACO transmission model parameters are given, sky data is given, and the S/N is plotted. See Text Summary Results for a description of the text output.Toggling both options will display a page with the input parameters, the NACO transmission model parameters, sky data and the graphs described above. Toggling no options will give you only the Text Summary Results.
The text summary results are given on all results pages. Here follows a short description of the items in the text summary results. For spectroscopy, the numbers quoted are for the central wavelength.Source spectral type: The spectral type of the target.

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – In need of a good starting pitching performance, the Minnesota Twins have made a call to AAA Rochester as they face the Tigers Friday night.
The Twins announced Friday afternoon they've called up pitcher Sam Deduno for their game against the Tigers. To make room for Deduno on the 25-man roster, the Twins placed pitcher Tim Wood on the 60-day disabled list.
Deduno made spot starts on the mound for the Twins last season and emerged as a starting pitcher early this year during the World Baseball Classic.
Immediately after the Twins' 8-3 loss to the Braves on Thursday, their opening day starter Vance Worley was sent down to AAA Rochester.

Firefighter, police officer hurt saving historic home, but barn destroyed
"It was a hell of a save," Durham Fire Chief Corey Landry said.
Firefighters from more than a dozen communities - including many who fought a fire in Portsmouth only hours before - protected the historic home at 4 Smith Park Lane. The fire destroyed a barn and a large breezeway or addition connected to the home, the chief said.
Landry said a police officer suffered a leg muscle injury that could keep him out of work for weeks.
A firefighter slipped and fell, suffering a back injury and a concussion.
"I think the helmet saved him," said Landry, who expects the firefighter back to work by midweek.
The injured were taken to the hospital and later released.
Landry said one wall of the home was damaged. Landry didn't have a dollar estimate for the damage. He said antiques were stored in the barn, but wasn't aware of any animals that lived there.
Durham firefighters were at another fire scene at 20 Main St., when the call came in about 3:30 p.m. for the barn fire. Firefighters heard exploding propane tanks in the barn, which collapsed in the fire.
The state Fire Marshal's Office and local authorities were working to determine the fire's cause.
The Durham Community Church opened its doors to provide bathrooms and warmth for emergency responders.
Durham and University of New Hampshire police helped with traffic and crowd control.
Fire apparatus and manpower from Dover, Lee, Madbury, Exeter, Portsmouth, Pease, Nottingham, North Hampton, Stratham, Newington, Somersworth, Rochester, Newmarket, Barrington and Rollinsford. South Berwick, Maine, helped with station coverage.

December 21, 2014
PITTSBURGH (AP) - The Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins will visit with President Barack Obama in the White House on Thursday, two days before they report to training camp.
The 6 p.m. ceremony will occur two hours before Pittsburgh's other championship team, the Super Bowl-winning Steelers, opens the regular season at home against the Tennessee Titans.
The Penguins won their first Stanley Cup since 1992, rallying from a 3-2 series deficit to defeat the reigning champion Detroit Red Wings in the finals. The Penguins became the first team since 1971 to win a finals Game 7 on the road.
Leading the Penguins' visit will be Sidney Crosby, who at age 21 became the youngest captain of a Stanley Cup winner.

Charlestown, N.H., woman lies about friend's deathJanuary 12,2013BELLOWS FALLS — A Charlestown, N.H., woman was arrested for allegedly lying about a man's death.
Luke Van Ranst, 28, of Charlestown, N.H., called Julene Alva, 28, the day he died Dec. 4.
According to Alva, Van Ranst called for a ride and when Alva and her friend arrived, they found him collapsed in a New Hampshire parking lot.
Alva said she did not know how he died but autopsy results later confirmed it was a drug and alcohol overdose.
Alva and her friend recanted their story and admitted that Van Ranst was part of a group that obtained, used and transported a significant quantity of drugs from Massachusetts into Vermont.
Alva will be arraigned in criminal court in Brattleboro on Feb. 26.MORE IN This Just InSOUTH BURLINGTON — Vermont Gas Systems announced this morning to members of the news media...

SearchMedia Holdings Limited ("SearchMedia" or the "Company") (NYSE Amex:IDI),(NYSE Amex:IDI.WS), one of China's leading nationwide multi-platform media companies, today announced that the Company partnered with multiple local firms including Win Media and Asia Outdoor to win the tender for the Hangzhou Tourism Commission's 2012 Overseas Outdoor Campaign (the "Hangzhou Campaign").

Nicholas grew up to be the model of generosity, while Fred became the opposite: a fast-talking repo man who is jealous, sad and broke. Eventually Fred's bad behavior sends him to jail. His only option is to turn to his brother. Over Mrs. Claus' objections, Nicholas agrees to help his brother on one condition: that he come to the North Pole and earn the money he needs by working in Santa's Toy Shop. Features Starbucks, Clark and Hubbard Streets.

|February 26, 1991
|Hip hop
|Def Jam
|James Todd Smith
|Marley Marl
|Gold (RIAA)
|LL Cool J singles chronology
"Mama Said Knock You Out" is a number-one hit single by LL Cool J from his album of the same name. The song famously begins with the line "Don't call it a comeback/I've been here for years." Before "Mama Said Knock You Out" was released, many people felt that LL Cool J's career was waning; his grandmother, who still believed in his talent, told him to "knock out" all his critics. The song was produced by Marley Marl[1] with help from DJ Bobcat along with LL. The single reached number 17[2] on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified gold by the RIAA. LL Cool J won Best Rap Solo Performance at the Grammy Awards of 1992. The song takes various shots at Kool Moe Dee.
The song was featured in the Michael J. Fox action comedy The Hard Way, in which LL also co-starred.
The song uses samples from James Brown's "Funky Drummer," the Chicago Gangsters' "Gangster Boogie," Sly & The Family Stone's "Trip to Your Heart" and the drum break from Digital Underground's The Humpty Dance, and Rock the Bells by LL Cool J. The music video features LL Cool J in a boxing ring, rapping into a microphone similar to the one an announcer would use in a boxing match. Frequently, there are shots of him working out and scenes of boxers being punched out.
LL Cool J said in his autobiography that the idea for the song came from a discussion with his grandmother. He had said to his grandmother that he felt that he couldn't survive as a rapper now that gangsta rap was popular and he was being dissed by several up-and-coming rappers. She responded, "Oh baby, just knock them out!"[3] At the end of the video, his grandmother says "Todd! Todd! Get upstairs and take out that garbage".
Cultural references[edit]
The song has been parodied on the 1990s comedy show In Living Color as a music video skit, "Mama's Gonna Kick Me Out" with Shawn Wayans as Jimmie Walker's Good Times character, J.J. Evans[4] and in the 1994 hip-hop mockumentary film and its soundtrack album, Fear of a Black Hat as a solo single for rapper Tasty-Taste (Larry B. Scott), "Granny Said Kick Yo Ass".
The title was heard in the Futurama episode, "Proposition Infinity," when during a brief hostage taking of Amy Wong in a police holding cell, the police robot unit URL uses the Vulcan nerve pinch from Star Trek to subdue a violent criminal, then afterwards coolly says: "Mama said Spock you out."
In an episode of The Office, when introducing Ryan, Michael Scott remarks "Don't call it a comeback." This song was in the "Pontiac Bandit" episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine when Jake Peralta wore a white suit to a criminal meet. In It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, the song is used in the episode "The Gang Broke Dee".[5] In the Auralnauts Star Wars parody, "Revenge of Middle Management," Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker are singing the song during the beginning sequence.

Bill would require inspections for high-mileage cars
HARTFORD — Connecticut's Department of Motor Vehicles commissioner said Wednesday she opposes mandatory inspections of vehicles with more than 100,000 miles, but said she'll ask whether the state's emissions testing vendor could also conduct cursory safety checks.
Commissioner Melody Currey told the General Assembly's Transportation Committee that two new vehicle inspections proposed by legislators — one for vehicles with more than 100,000 miles and another requiring annual safety checks for all cars and truck — are both unnecessary and potentially costly for the agency.

That's a bad as the "CLEAN AIR FEE" on our car registrations. Just another way to suck $10 out of us. It doesn't do squat to clean anything except the DMV's toilet bowls. "
