Expectations Are Still High for Alcoa
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Last year will likely go down as a year Alcoa (AA) investors will love to forget. Not only did the company's stock wallow near 52-week lows for most of 2013 due to a brutal pricing environment, but the aluminum giant also lost its shine after being kicked off the Dow Jones Industrial Average.
How can we also forget that while the stock traded around $7.80 back in October, shares were downgraded to sell by Deutsche Bank analyst Jorge Beristain, who also lowered his price target to $5.50. Since then, the stock has soared nearly 35%. While "moral victories" aren't quantified in capital gains, I do believe that Alcoa management deserves a considerable amount of credit for having done more with less.
Today, even with shares closing Monday at $10.54, near the 52-week high, I believe the stock looks incredibly cheap. But as I've said on more than one occasion, it may be a while longer before aluminum prices return to their robust levels. The good news is, the worst is over. With Alcoa due to report fourth-quarter earnings Thursday, investors will be looking for hints of how management feels about the expected rise in global aluminum demand.
The Street will be looking for earnings of 5 cents per share on revenue of $5.43 billion, which would represent an 8% year-over-year revenue decline and continuing what we've seen as a weak top-line performance over the past couple of years. Chances are, this is also what investors should expect throughout the balance of 2014.Accordingly, my price model for aluminum, which have been trimmed by 10% and 12%, respectively, for fiscal year 2014 and 2015, remains conservative. This, however, should not be considered an indictment on Alcoa or its management team. Unlike most, I don't expect Alcoa to manufacture growth out of thin air. Global demand for aluminum is isn't there yet. The good news, though, is that Alcoa's management, which has always remained upbeat about the company's prospects, has maintained 7% demand growth in aluminum for this fiscal year, which was 1% better than what the company guided for last year. I believe another 7% demand growth target for all of 2014 will be encouraging. For that matter, even if management were to project demand growth to, say, 6%, I don't believe investors should assume lack of confidence, either. It's not as if Alcoa has been outperformed by the likes of Commercial Metals (CMC) or Century Aluminum (CENX). What's more, even with operational deficits such as soft production shipments, Alcoa today still has considerable amounts of value. Investors just need to know where to look.

After years of centralization of photosharing, OpenPhoto wants to give control back to users.
The growing centralization of the Internet -- manifested in our increasing reliance on "The Cloud" -- threatens the nature of our relationship with the technologies that shape modern life. The user interface changes that invariably enrage some contingent of users are just a trivial edge of the total space that describes the consequences of relinquishing control over our software to large commercial enterprises. There are entire categories of larger consequences.
Some are the kinds of low-probability, high-consequence risks that James Fallows wrote about in his November 2011 article on his personal experience with his wife's hacked Gmail account.
Others are higher-order in nature, such as the way companies like Facebook and Google deal with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act. There's also the issue of algorithmic censorship, which can take distinctly non-obvious forms.
An interesting example, as Ben Fino-Radin reports, is YouTube's removal of a video that incorporates spammy metadata into its conception as artwork.
The video, likely known to most readers, features Cortright mundanely clicking through the stock effects of a $20 webcam, gazing bored into the screen of her computer, trance playing in the background. Far from offensive content. The violation lies in Cortright's use of keywords. The video description contained 733 keywords, ranging from "tits, vagina, sex, nude, boobs" to "san francisco, diego, jose, puto, taco bell, border patrol, mcdonalds, KFC, kentucky fried chicken, trans fat".
Andy Baio investigates another vector on which emerging art and culture are colliding headlong with proprietary services and broad legislation. YouTube's necessarily automated and algorithmic enforcement of copyright simply cannot make distinctions about fair use, and as a consequence is in some sense destroying the notion altogether. Mashups, remixes, and cover songs are routinely taken down with very little recourse for users.
While I'm willing to put up with periodic changes to my workflow, I'm much less willing to compromise on parental control over their children's accessibility or the emerging definitions of our collective cultural heritage. Fortunately, there are people building alternatives.
For years, WordPress has been an inherently decentralized blogging platform. It's at once a company (Automattic) that hosts blogs on WordPress.com, an open-source blogging application you can install on hosting of your choice, and a platform that supports rich add-ons and themes. It provides a powerful set of tools for people and organizations of all sizes to publish without centralized gatekeepers in their way.
Jaisen Mathai is a Web developer who left Yahoo! last year to test the WordPress model in a context he's passionate about: photography. Raising over $25,000 on Kickstarter, he started the Open Photo Project, an open source photo storage and sharing platform aimed at photography Web sites like Flickr, SmugMug, and Picasa.
Over email, he told me "OpenPhoto is a platform on which applications can be built. This is interesting because Flickr, Smugmug and Picasa are applications on which other applications can be built. The difference is subtle but profound."
The subtle, profound difference being that users retain control and ownership over the photos, where and how they're stored, as well as where and how they're presented.
One of the guiding principles of the project is to always have at least two options for any given part of the platform: data, hosting, application.
The real significance is that once you decouple these things and make them interchangable you wind up having something that's never existed before. I also believe that this could only come from a grassroots movement because Google, Facebook and Yahoo are not at all interested in providing their users with the ability to leave their platform the way OpenPhoto does.
On top of the platform, Mathai and his team have already started building a Web, iPhone, and Android app called OpenPhoto, also open source. While this is all geared toward developers and advanced users for now, the goal is for it to be accessible to end users.
I believe that services like [Amazon Web Services] will become more consumer friendly. At any point a user can export their entire account from the storage which we provide to one of their own. This does make even the "simple" signup different from existing services.
Dropbox is a great example. Since they are a consumer focused service it's trivial to link your hosted OpenPhoto account with your Dropbox account. Even non technical users can do this. This also differentiates OpenPhoto from existing services.
Our goal is to get users' photos into their own control and we'll employ whatever services make it easiest for them to do so.
Mathai's vision of the future involves users that own and control their own photos and the associated metadata, with a thriving ecosystem of apps built on an open platform. A lower barrier to entry for developers who can leverage a new user's existing data store to more quickly and easily develop innovative experiences. And another integral part of this vision is BrowserID, the spiritual successor to the mostly failed OpenID initiative. It's a decentralized identity platform that allows the development of apps that users can sign into without having a separate siloed identity with a new username and password for each separate service.

Thomas Vander Stichele made my day
Since a while, everyday at 8pm, my N900 was complaining because it wasn't able to sync one of my calendar (my corporate google calendar). I never really paid attention... but yesterday I decided to fix this.
The calendar sync is done using erminig-ng.
My first action was to save the backtrace and have a look at it... I could understand that a integer was provided where the code was expecting a string.
So before fixing this, I decided to get the last source code... mmm... and then the github reposirory of thomasvs made my day ! Indeed this guy already fixed the problem and explains that on his blog. He also provides a package to update erminig-ng on the phone :-)
Thank you Thomas to not letting me reinventing the wheel !

Skin deteriorates as it ages, but the sun plays a key role in the acceleration of wrinkles, as roughly 80% of wrinkles are due to photoaging.UV exposure induces production of the same enzymes that degrades collagen with age, and inhibits the ability of fibroblasts to produce new collagen. Free radicals from UV radiation and other environmental aggressors cause inflammation, DNA mutations, collagen breakdown, dark spots, and eventually loss of elasticity, and resilience.The innovative "all around" beauty protector. This lightly tinted translucent fluid acts as an ultra-light beautifying shield that protects the skin all day from UV rays, which are responsible for aging skin. Combining antioxidants, micronized mineral filters with SPF 30 protection, and iridescent light-reflecting powders, this beauty-boosting formula embellishes the skin with a unique flawless finish.The luxuriously oil-free sheer texture glides on easily over any daily moisturizer, effectively protecting against harmful UV rays. Skin looks fresh, even and radiant. Available in four shades: 0, 1, 2, 3. (1 oz)

Vt. police say DNA linked killer to burglaryThe Associated Press | December 06,2013GUILDHALL - A Vermont man convicted of killing a baby 20 years ago has been charged with burglary after police say DNA linked him to a blood-spattered pamphlet at the crime scene.
Forty-three-year-old Shawn Boyd pleaded not guilty to felony burglary and unlawful mischief in Essex Superior Court Thursday and is being held on $10,000 bail.
Police say Boyd smashed the front door of the Moose Look Cafe in Concord last Christmas Eve last year and stole $7 from the cash register.
The Caledonian-Record reported that prosecutors are charging Boyd as a habitual offender because he has three prior felony convictions, including one for manslaughter.
Police say Boyd also goes by Shawn Ely and was sent to prison in 1998 after being convicted of beating to death a 2-year-old boy.MORE IN This Just InPigs nearly managed to fly in Connecticut, terrorized hikers in Maine and drew a police response...

We recently had our garage roof replaced by your company. From the very first phone call I was treated pleasantly and respectfully. All of my phone calls were returned and a quote was given in a very timely manner. When you found out that we were planning to put our house on the market soon, you gave us priority and had the job done in two weeks.
When I came home the night the garage work was done, I parked in the street to avoid any stray nails that might have been left in the driveway. The next morning I couldn't believe that there was no sign that anyone had been there, except of course for the new roof.
I have had many contractors here in the 12-years we have owned this house, and have never seen such a thorough clean-up and lack of damage of any kind to the house, plants, etc. I just wanted to tell you how impressed I am with your company and will keep you in mind if we ever decide to get new siding on our house. Thank you for a job well done!
-Karen S.
Roofs are an important part of a home's maintenance plan. Anyone who has experienced a roof leak knows firsthand, leaks can cause major household disruptions, cosmetic damage and even structural damage in a relatively short period of time. Yet many homeowners often neglect such routine maintenance as replacing worn or cracked shingles, gutter cleaning, roof coating, and even the removal of snow and ice for proper drainage.
Volpe Enterprises, Inc. can provide preventative care for your home with necessary roof coatings, roof inspections, repairing missing shingles, and even periodic gutter cleaning. If you've been putting off your roof maintenance, Volpe Enterprises, Inc. can help get you back on track. We provide general assessments, free estimates, and roof certifications that will help keep your roof in top condition. We even provide roof maintenance plans for your convenience.
And, when you find it's time to replace that roof, Volpe Enterprises, Inc. has qualified craftsmen to install all types of roofing from well known manufacturers like GAF/ELK and Certain Teed. Stop by our showroom to sample metal, slate, and architectural fiberglass shingles, learn about warranties offered, and experience personalized service with customer satisfaction in mind.

Women's Body Image Based More on Others' Opinions Than Their Own Weight
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Women's appreciation of their bodies is only indirectly connected to their body mass index (BMI), a common health measure of weight relative to height, according to recent research. The most powerful influence on women's appreciation of their bodies is how they believe important others view them, the study suggests. On the flip side, the more women are able to focus on the inner workings of their body – or how their bodies function and feel – rather than how they appear to others, the more they will appreciate their own bodies.

------- Information on upcoming SLAPT Workshop Events for 2014-2015 School Year Posted Below ----- And past events are on the archive page linked above and HERE--------
------- Scroll down to read the incoming SLAPT President's message -- or click HERE. -------
August 23, 2014 - Models, Curriculum and Standards
Date:August 23, 2014
Time: 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Location: Kirkwood High School
Hosts: Jim Cibulka and Bob Brazzle
The terms "models", "curriculum" and "standards" are misunderstood and ambiguous. Our goal for this workshop is to develop a shared understanding of what they are and what they are not. Participants will engage with several different types of models, experience several examples of the modeling approach to teaching physics, see how the modeling philosophy leads to a powerful narrative (i.e. curriculum), and evaluate the compatibility of this narrative with the Next Generation Science Standards. Email Contacts linked above.
September 27, 2014 Six Flags for Teachers
Date: Saturday, September 27, 2014
Time: 8:00 a.m. - Noon
Where: Six Flags St. Louis, Eureka, MO

Six Flags has been a long time supporter of SLAPT's development of a comprehensive educational component for Physics Day.

To learn more about how to include amusement park physics into your classroom and to better prepare teachers for the April 2015 Physics Day, join us (and bring a guest) for a free workshop at Six Flags on September 27 at 8am. We'll begin with a behind-the-scenes tour of the engineering that makes the rides work. Next, we'll provide an overview of the resources available to use with students in preparation for Physics Day and to use at Physics Day. Finally, we'll strap on our wireless data collection devices and ride, ride, ride!
RSVP to Michelle Westerman, email@example.com with "Physics Workshop" in the subject line and you and your guest's name in the body of the note. Additional Six Flags Physics Day curriculum materials and information can be obtained at: http://www.slapt.org/resources/sixflags/index.html

If you bring your flash drive with you, copies of old exams and answer keys from Physics Bowl, International Physics Olympiad, WYSE, TEAMS, and the SLAPT competition will be made available for you to take away on that flash drive.
The meeting will take place in room 203 at Clayton High School. You should park in the faculty parking lot on the east side of the school (near the globe) and enter through the main entrance across from the globe. Clayton High School is located on 1 Mark Twain Circle just south of Maryland Avenue/Ladue Road near the Brown Shoe Company headquarters in Clayton.

October 25, 2014 - Introductory Physics for the the Life Sciences - "You Too Can Do Biophysics" - Joint Meeting with the Missouri Association of Physics Teachers (MAPT)
Call for Papers Deadline is October 17
Date: Saturday, October 25, 2014
Time: 8:00 a.m. - early afternoon
Location: St. Louis College of Pharmacy
The SLAPT membership has been invited to the Fall meeting of the MAPT with the primary focus being Introductory Physics for the Life Sciences. Among other topics and presentations, Associate Professor of Physics, Juan Rodriguez, of the Department of Basic Sciences at the St. Louis College of Pharmacy will give a talk titled "You Too Can Do BioPhysis." The new MCAT format, which calls for competencies in how physics relates to the life sciences, is driving a demand for introductory physics courses with a greater biophysics focus. Biophysics is also an enticing area of research that many departments wish to add. Despite the demand, many members of the physics community are reluctant to teach biophysics-related courses, or to undertake biophysics research projects, for fear they are unprepared to bridge biology and physics. Professor McCall will share his personal experiences, and those of others, which will hopefully allay those fears and demonstrate that you too can do biophysics.
Click HERE for full details, plus the opportunity to bring your own discussion topics on any aspect of Physics education to a varied audience. This is a great opportunity.
November 8, 2014 - Using LEDs in your Physics Course
Date: November 8, 2014
Time: Daily - 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Location: John Burroughs School
Eugenia Etkina published two papers in The Physics Teacher about using LEDs in nearly every unit within a general physics course. Val Michael and Wayne Winters will facilitate several activities using LEDs and will utilize the guided inquiry approach (called the "ISLE" approach) developed by Etkina and her colleagues. Email contacts: Val Michael firstname.lastname@example.com and Wayne Winters firstname.lastname@example.com
December 13, 2014 Magnetism Lab Equipment Make and Take. (Reprise)
Date: December 13, 2014
Time: 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Location: Clayton High School
This workshop will reprise one originally designed and led by Mark Schober many years ago. The theme of this workshop is magnetism experiments and demonstrations. Participants will use homemade equipment, some designed by Mark Schober and some designed by Rex Rice, to perform several experiments and demonstrations. The majority of the experiments/demos are about magnetism, but the equipment can also be used for a qualitative electric field mapping experiment which we will also perform. In this workshop, participants will gain experience with the equipment with the hopes that they will have a better idea of whether or not they would like to build some of the equipment at a followup workshop on Saturday, January 10.
For complete details and a list of the experiments and demonstrations that can be performed with this apparatus, along with required support equipment and sensors click HERE
You'll get to use equipment like the equipment that you'll build during the January 10th workshop during these demonstrations and experiments. I plan to have approximate costs associated with building the apparatus for these experiments at the December 13 workshop. We'll take orders for the equipment at this workshop, order and precut some of the parts between December 13 and January 10, and then build the equipment on January 10.
You will be welcome to order equipment sets if you are not able to attend the December 13 workshop, but we will NOT be performing the experiments again on January 10. You may also order parts kits if you aren't able to attend the January 10 workshop, but you will have to pick up the parts kits from Clayton High School and put them together yourself.
It would be very helpful if people would RSVP with Rex Rice (email@example.com) so that we know how much equipment to set up on Saturday, December 13.
These demonstrations and experiments are appropriate for all physics courses in which magnetism is studied, and would be excellent for AP Physics 2 or AP Physics C E & M courses.
Rex Rice and others will bring back a popular make and take that Mark Schober presented several years ago. Participants will help construct a platform which can be used for several different activities and experiments involving magnetism. Experience the activities yourself, and then help our team build the set(s) you will take with you. The sets will be available for a modest cost, which we will advertise closer to the date of the workshop (after we have purchased the materials). Contact email: Rex Rice firstname.lastname@example.com
January 10, 2014 Magnetism Lab Equipment - Make Day. (Reprise)
Date: January 10, 2014
Time: 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Location: Clayton High School
This workshop is the follow-on to the December 13th workshop that detailed the various experiments and demonstrations that can be performed with the equipment that will be constructed on January 10. It would be best if teachers attended both workshops. The intention of the December 13th workshop is to become familiar with the equipment and to decide if it would be a fit for your classroom. If you cannot attend both you still would be able to get the equipment. See above December 13 discussion and click HERE for full details.

April 24, 2015 - Six Flags Physics Day
Date: Friday , April 24, 2015
Time: 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Location: Six Flags St. Louis
Again this year, Physics Day is exclusive to high school physics -- Math and Science day is one week later -- giving your students even better access to the rides. SLAPT highly recommends the picnic combo package that includes buffet lunch in the catering grove - it's much better than waiting in lines at the food vendor stations. If you choose to buy park admission tickets without the lunch, you can save several dollars per ticket if you order in advance. You also get one free chaperone ticket for every 15 paid tickets. Bus and car parking is $20 per vehicle. Processing fee is $10 and is indicated on the order form. Last year's 2014 order form isavailable on this website HERE for planning purposes. The 2015 order form will posted here when available -- or call Six Flags at 636-938-4800 ext 288 for further information. Also again, this year, there will be data collection opportunities at Mr. Freeze with Vernier accelerometers. Students can wear a vest with the equipment attached and then download data following the ride. Teacher volunteers are needed throughout the day to staff the data collection equipment. If you are available, email Jen Meyer at firstname.lastname@example.com or sign up on the online form HERE to volunteer for as little as a couple of hours or as much as the whole day. Further information and curriculum materials can be downloaded HERE on this web site.

2014-2015 SLAPT President's Welcome
Bob Brazzle, President – Saint Louis Area Physics Teachers
Presidential Greeting For 2014-2015
Welcome to the 2014-15 school year! I hope you had a rejuvenating summer and are ready for the challenges and opportunities of the coming school year. During our planning meeting in May, we attempted to honor the feedback you all provided in our online survey. I believe we've put together a terrific portfolio of professional development offerings (summarized in the left column of this newsletter) and that these are highly relevant for novice and veteran alike; I hope you can attend most of these workshops.
The program-level changes I wrote about last year (brought on by the NGSS and the replacement of the AP Physics B course) are in full swing, and several survey responders expressed interest in program-level discussions. Therefore, Jim Cibulka and I will start the year off with a workshop devoted to the "big picture", such as helping you make curriculum decisions with consideration of the standards and college readiness, pedagogic decisions based on Physics Education Research, etc. Several of the other workshops during the year are devoted to enriching your course, with things like contests, authentic inquiry projects, free online videos, and of course a field trip to Six Flags Physics day. We also will have a workshop specifically designed to address those content topics for which the survey responders expressed the most interest.
You may have heard of the idea of the "educational pendulum" swinging from one "hot approach" to another every few years. In my opinion, the solution is to never follow any pedagogic method exclusively. Teachers must develop a toolbox of diverse approaches to teaching, curriculum and assessment. Active participation in SLAPT generates this type of rich toolbox, because we are a community of professional learners and peer presenters. So I really hope to see big turnouts at all of our workshops this year. Enjoy!
Bob Brazzle
Summer 2015 Workshops - Here is the start of a list of 2015 Summer Workshops hosted and sponsored by other organizations.
American Modeling Teachers Association: Modeling Workshops in high school physics, chemistry, physical science, and biology will be offered in summer 2015, in many states. Modeling Workshops are peer-led. Modeling Instruction is designated by the U.S. Department of Education as an Exemplary K-12 science program. Some sites offer stipends, usually for in-state teachers.

Seats are limited, so inquire soon. Please visit the website linked here for details, application, and points of contact. http://www.murr.missouri.edu/et_secondaryst.php
Join the American Association of Physics Teachers
Why should you become a member? It's easy, and there are nice tangible benefits: you will receive both Physics Today and either the Physics Teacher or the American Journal of Physics (your choice) in addition to online access to the magazines. AAPT sponsors contests, awards, pre-college and college teacher training programs, programs for physics students, two national meetings each year, facilitates collaborations between all sorts of physics teachers, and provides grants to sections.
Perhaps more importantly, though less tangibly, is that AAPT is our professional organization, and that membership is a professional responsibility. AAPT supports what we do, recruits and trains new teachers, voices our concerns to legislators, and boosts the prestige of our profession.
Additionally, our new AAPT section status gives SLAPT greater visibility and recognition in the national physics teacher community. Our involvement in AAPT through membership and participation in national meetings will further boost the strength and quality of service SLAPT provides to our members.
Click HERE to go to AAPT's online registration site.

Lenses / Re: 70-200 or 100-400 conundrum.....« on: November 21, 2014, 12:32:15 AM »
One further thing to consider is the tracking of AF for the wildlife use. The 70-200 with the 2x will leave you with a single point which is fine for stationary targets or slow movers. The 100-400 will leave you the full spread of focus points so your AF can still track - sorry I can't remember which body you said you had, this will make more difference depending on body. It doesn't just come down to IQ difference, and I agree with what others have said, the 70-200 with the 2X attached isn't that great to hold.

GardeningThe optimistic imagination of the inner child,
Has begun to slowly wilt.
Adult responsibility pruning the wildness--
Into neat borders and planters.
The lawn mown, set and square.
Wildflowers have no place here…
Dreams mostly committed to the compost heap,
Along with the daisy chains,
A few lucky fragments escaping on dandelion seeds
Weed killer eliminates the remainder.
Goth weekend...A weekend committed to memory,
The solid black behind and solid grey ahead
Of a snail-crawling drive.
The promise of the misted coastline
Winking like fairy-lights..
The fete inside the church,
Confetti-like falling petals,
Its like I time travel and re-tread outfits
Forties glamour, Victorian , futuristic--
The then and the now collide--
Wanders of time gathered.
Risqué burlesque….
Fudge, and other treats
No seafood-- no oysters this time,
However, the bottles were steadily emptied
And stacked up.
Fire-walking and bonfires --
there were marshmallows scorched and sticky,
I felt feline in the darkness of the coast
Cages, cigarettes and sand,
Bridges and boats.
Dizzying spirals of interconnected events
Committed to history like fossils in rock,
Restless nights and long days--
Firm friends and no regrets.
Spaceman...They say you dream of floating
When your oxygen runs out--
But you longer want to float.
Dreaming of home for long enough
That when eyelids slip closed
You are there;
The air is fresh,
There are plants and animals and rain--
The ground is solid beneath toes--
You don't want to wake
But you do--
And find yourself behind a visor and see a star-scape,
Then feel that imaginary Terra-firma crumble.
Nothing but the void to hear homesick despairing sobs.
Inner voice too much, to LOUD.
So is the radio static.
So is the silence.
Longing for a place that you can never see again.
Clinging desperately to the air-starved mind delusions.
Feeling something other than sweat and the inside of a sealed suit.
Unable to escape
The inevitable.
The faces and places in minds eye
They will all fade out slowly.
You hope the alien world fades first.
Never closer to home than in each fading heartbeat...
DollyEyesI saw how you had been left in a corner,
You had wide-painted-dolly-eyes,
Glassy and glazed over--
Although you were far from drunk.
Your glass was empty.
Remaining unreadable,
Giving no emotions out
Reflecting only those around you;
The perfect poker face,
Unable to escape past the bodies
That penned you in,
As every word you spoke was ignored;
The one person beside you
That ought to be listening
Engrossed in vapid chatter.
You love unconditionally
I watch how it's wasted.
