Sun Opens Chip Documentation and Appoints an Ombudsman
Sun has publicly released developer hardware for older proprietary hardware on a Wiki site entitled "FOSS Open Hardware Documentation".
The new site is designed as an addition to the documentation for Sun's current processors on the OpenSparc website. Before releasing the manuals, Sun is checking if they infringe on third-party rights. The Wiki site offers PDF documentation of older chipsets and controllers, and links to the source code of existing implementations in OpenSolaris and OpenBSD, following cooperation between David Gwynne from the OpenBSD project and Sun.
The Open Source Ombudsman will handle requests for documentation. Sun has set up this new role whose holder will liaise between free software projects and the corporation, passing anonymized requests from the community to the right people within the company.
The Ombudsman will be a personal contact for Open Source projects to avoid misunderstandings such as the purported revocation of the FreeBSD Java license in 2004, writes Sun's Open Source boss Simon Phipps in his blog. Phipps is currently acting Ombudsman.

Google has expanded its popular Street View mapping tool on Thursday to include GTA parks, trails, university campuses and zoos.
It's part of a worldwide update, which includes more coverage not only in Canada, but also in Macau, Singapore, Sweden, the United States, Thailand, Taiwan, Italy, Great Britain, Denmark and Norway.
Over the summer, Google's high-tech car and trike — each mounted with a panoramic camera — revisited areas in the GTA first shot in 2009 and explored new pockets that have cropped up since or were passed over the first time.
The company photographed landmarks from High Park to Canada's Wonderland and Black Creek Pioneer Village.
Street View allows anyone online to explore streets, landmarks and natural wonders around the world through 360-degree street-level photographs.
Since Street View launched in five U.S. cities in May 2007, it has expanded to include seven continents.
Faces and legible licence plates are blurred for privacy.
Here's a list of areas in the GTA now on Street View:
Ashbridge's Bay Park
Canada's Wonderland
Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine
Yonge-Dundas Square
Exhibition Place
University of Toronto at Mississauga
Waterfront Trail
Earl Bales Park

The restauration of the stairwell finally completed at the Jugendstilsenteret in Ålesund
Welcome back to 1907
The museum received 1 million kroners (80.000 Eur) in grants from a private foundation for the restoration of the main staircase at Jugendstilsenteret. The target was to find and replace the original colours with original techniques and materials as far as possible back to 1907. An old fashionable material, coccolite was also discovered. Coccolite is a product of plaster, strengthened with hair from coconuts. It was not a very common material in the beginning of 20 century and was probably imported from Germany. The coccolite was both firesafe and a very strong material used indoors for walls. The wooden staircase has also been restored and repaired. It has been treated with linen oil, and gaps have been repaired with hand made iron sticks. The lighting is a copy from about 1907. The last part of the project was to make copies of the tiles in terracotta colour for the hall. Nowadays the staircase shines like the original in delicate light green colours and imitated oak on the walls.

Childhood Habits
Ask parents what their main objective is in raising their children, many would answer, "to raise independent, responsible, productive adults." It sounds simple, but in a society filled with overindulgence, instant gratification, and self-fulfillment, bad habits often arise.
The questions are: What is the difference between a temporary habit that is likely to be outgrown, such as sleeping with the lights on versus a habit that could lead to long-term destructive patterns, such as over-eating? How can parents guide their children toward healthy habits that will serve them well as adults?
Everyone has habits. Some are helpful and are a necessary part of our daily functions, while others are harmful and can significantly interfere with our lives. When harmful habits are repeated and automatic, they can cause conflict in relationships, social stress, and/or lead to addictive behaviors.

Darren Dods' early goal handed Falkirk a 1-0 victory over Hamilton in the Ramsdens Cup final at Livingston's Almondvale Stadium.
Dods struck with just two minutes on the clock, and the defender's effort proved to be enough to help the Bairns become the first side to win the trophy four times.
Falkirk enjoyed the perfect start to the final.
Less than 120 seconds had been played when Mark Millar's inswinging corner from the left picked out Dods and the centre-back made no mistake in planting his header beyond David Hutton in the Hamilton goal.
The Accies had to wait until the 19th minute for their first shot on target, and even then Jordan Kirkpatrick's speculative strike from 30 yards produced a comfortable save from Michael McGovern.
Lee Kilday forced McGovern into another save 10 minutes after the break, but the Bairns stopper was more than equal to the defender's nodded effort before Alex Neil headed wide five minutes later.
At the other end, Millar came within a matter of inches of doubling Falkirk's advantage when his drilled shot from 25 yards hit the crossbar and rebounded to safety.
Hamilton launched forward in search of an equaliser and Daniel Redmond volleyed over from 20 yards while Andy Ryan was twice denied by McGovern, but the Accies could not find a way through.

9 Myths About Travel Nursing Revealed
Jeff Long | Scrubs Magazine
Myth#6: Travel nursing doesn't provide a reliable
income for me or my family.
Travel nurses also have the chance to choose where they want to work, so they can select assignments that have a lower cost of living and allow their money to buy more.
And depending on the company, travel nurses can also receive benefits such as free housing, travel reimbursement, per diem allowances and bonuses (e.g., completion, referral, loyalty) that supplement their income.

While warming up Tuesday night, Tod Walters had a hard time finding his line.
Considering it was his first time bowling after a two-week holiday layoff might have had something to do with. But once practice was over and the lights came on, Walters caught fire.
It started with a 299 the first game and ended with a 279 the third. His middle game of 257 gave Walters a career-high 835 national honor count in the Blue Ribbon League at Winona Bowl. That score is the best series in Winona this season and ties him for the eighth highest score ever bowled in town.
Walters went into the evening with a 220 average. Honor counts, however, were few and far between. He had just two going into the night.
"I bet I went eight weeks without getting over 660," said Walters, whose previous high series was an 826 - which came in the men's city tournament last year. "I couldn't put three good games together. I'd have two good games and then a bad one.
"The week before Christmas break I had the 764. I felt it was starting to come together. I was feeling better. But after a two-week break, I didn't know what to expect. In practice, I had no clue. I threw my last practice ball for a strike. From there I was in a zone."
Walters, who rolled 31 strikes on the night, realizes he's going to take some grief for the 299 game. His final ball crossed over to the Brooklyn side and left the 5-pin standing.
"Brian (Fakler) said that I did not throw a bad ball all night," Walters said. "He obviously didn't see that 12th ball in the first game. I had a groove. If I missed by a hair, it didn't hurt me. I was throwing the ball up the boards and not swinging it out."
With the city tournament approaching this weekend, the Super Bowl Doubles Tournament in La Crosse set for early February, and the men's state tournament just around the corner, Walters hopes he is peaking at the right time.
Last year, Walters was the all-events scratch champion and the doubles champion with Fakler in the city tournament.
"It's been a while since I was in a zone like that," he said. "Starting in January, you have to start clicking for the tournaments."
Who's hot?
Walters wasn't the only bowler rolling a career-high series in the past week.
Dan Schultz tossed his first honor count of the season Tuesday night in the American League at Westgate Bowl, and it was a big one - 789. Last Thursday in the Action League at Westgate, Keith Jenkin nailed a career-high 784 series, which included a pair of 279 games.
Kyle Malewicki recorded the first 300 game of his young career last Friday in the Legion League at Winona Bowl.
Josh Wenzel appears to be finding his groove just in time for the city tournament. He rifled a 772 series in the Legion League last Friday and a 714 Tuesday in the American League.
Other 700s in the past week were turned in by Adam Stockhausen (724), Dave Hultgren (719), Steve Poss (718), Richard Orlikowski (711), Nick Heilman (706) and Steve Walters (702).
Krystal Dorman rolled the top women's score of the week with a 666 series in the Spinners League at Winona Bowl. Tina Wenzel added a 651 in the Pin Topplers League at Westgate.
Rolling multiple honor counts in the past week were Dorman (666, 612), Wenzel (651, 637), Angie Booher (630, 609) and Keri Wegman (622, 614).
Also tossing 600s for the women were Lindsay Serwa (625), Beth Poulin (620), Kassi Kluzik (607) and Wendy Fakler (601).
The Bosteter's team from the Lamplighter League at Winona Bowl added their name to the all-time top 10 with a 1,237 game on Wednesday. That ranks No. 9 for high women's team game.
Lisa Jaskola recorded the first 500 series of her career Monday night with a 505 in the Spinners League.

Iowa Veteran's Welcome Center Opens
CEDAR RAPIDS, IA (CBS 2/FOX 28)--The Iowa Veteran's Welcome Center held its grand opening Friday.
The center will serve as place for veterans throughout the area to meet up and even conduct job searches.
Last week, we showed you the ribbon cutting of the building that was damaged in the floods of '08.
The reopening of the building means a lot to local veterans who say they now feel like they have a place they belong.
Veterans and community leaders came out to celebrate what they say is a huge sign of progress in the city.
In this room are some of the brave faces who fought for our country, and back at home, they are still fighting, fighting for each other.
"We just are here to help the veterans," said veteran Dennis Conaway.
That's exactly what the Iowa Veteran's Welcome Center is all about. Being there.
"The help I got. I want somebody to come in so I can help them," said Jay Kaiser.
It all began with a simple idea.
"There's five original members out of a PTSD group who decided we needed a place to go when we got through with our counseling," Conaway said.
A vision that finally found its footing about a year ago.
First they settled in a building on 1st avenue, then they heard about the reopening of the veterans memorial building.
So now here they are, celebrating the grand opening of the Iowa Veteran's Welcome Center.
"It took a lot of road work. We've partnered now with a lot of agencies locally here. The VA, the homeless shelter," said center President Roger Wiest.
Hard work for a center that will serve as a place for job searching, a library, food pantry and as a second home to these veterans.
"It's a place to go where you have something in common with people...I talk to a lot of the guys to see what they have gone through if they want to talk about it," said veteran Richard Johnson Jr.
"We've been blessed. We've got space, we've got time, and we've got people. We're just here to see that people get the direction they need," said Conaway.
The welcome center is not just for veterans, it also serves their spouses or children who might need help and support.

Mom-Tested Tips for Starting Solids
By Kelly Bryant
Introducing solids to your baby? We asked 10 moms to offer up their most useful and effective tips for making those early meals a success — and a lot of fun!
Put Veggies First
"The best piece of advice I received about introducing first foods, which is also the tip I heard the most, was to introduce veggies first and fruit last. Once the baby tastes fruit, that is all they will want to eat. Don't get me wrong, my son Alexander can't get enough of blueberries, but he doesn't reject his peas!" – Cat G.
Sweeten the Deal
"When making vegetable purees, it was suggested to me to add a bit of breast milk (if you're nursing) to the mixture to make it more appealing to Baby. That way she can get used to a new food, but still has that familiar taste of breast milk." - Shannan M.
Cereal Sleuth
"When starting my daughter, Cecelia, on a stronger flavored vegetable, I would mix a little of it in her rice cereal first so she'd get used to the taste. She never knew the difference and is a good eater today." – Cheryl C.
The Secret Ingredient: Love
"I actually really enjoyed making my son's baby food, as opposed to buying the jarred stuff. I'm by no means a gourmet chef, but I found it was really easy to steam fruits and veggies and puree them. I could set aside some time on the weekend to make a batch, pour it into ice cube trays to make small servings, then freeze them. It was easy to pop out a serving or two whenever we needed them during the week." - Selena J.
Freeze Frame
"I love those mesh teethers. I put frozen peas or mixed veggies in them. It combines the taste of veggies with coolness and relief for the gums."
- Paula S.
A For Avocado
"For whatever reason, guacamole is something many babies enjoy — either homemade or those little snack size packets. I freeze the packets, then take them out for a snack later. I leave it cold, but mushy. It felt good on my daughters' gums when they were teething." - Elena D.
Thicken Up
"I know they say to thin out the baby cereal, but I found that when it was a little thicker my kids were able to figure it out faster." - Alyson S.
The Three-Day Rule
"It's so important to wait at least three days between new food introductions just in case your child has an allergy. If you don't wait and a rash or other allergic reaction happens, you won't know which of the foods is the culprit." – Lindsay L.
Have Patience
"I learned not to stress so much when my baby didn't immediately accept certain foods. Be patient and just try to provide the most nutritious food you can, knowing it will all work out at the end of the day." - Jenn H.
Try, Try Again
"My son, Everett, had a habit of rejecting nearly any green food I put in front of him. I found that even if he turned his head away from green beans on a Monday, if I tried again on Friday there was a good chance he would eat them without a second thought. So don't give up — try again in a few days … and a few days after that!" - Maureen L.

A week ago I cut and planted leaf clippings from a damaged snake plant. Last night I saw what looked like a white pill on top of the soil. I wasn't sure, so I let it be. This morning it turned into a flower! Except flowers don't normally grow 1.5 cm in a night. In other posts about snake plant propagation, I've seen pictures of green sprouts, not flowers. So is this a fungus or a flower?
The potting mix is cheap soil (probably dug up outdoors) mixed with 25% used coffee grounds. I've been spraying the leaves daily (and getting the soil damp as well). |

That is a mushroom, magic or otherwise but definitely a fungus! |

"I've been spraying the leaves daily (and getting the soil damp as well" That's probably way too much moisture. Let it get much more dry before adding more water. Looks like a good experiment otherwise, that should go well. Good luck!! |

There's always a reason to celebrate when one of our teammates scores a job, however recently we were kicking up our heels when we learned that one of our long-time team members was awarded Associate of the Month by the Sheraton Indianapolis City Center Hotel.
Having been on the job for a little over four months, Jeffrey Powell was recognized for his performance, productivity and dedication to the property and the guests. "Being a maintenance engineer, you never know what you're going to be called to fix or build. It could be anything from a leak to drywall repair. Sometimes it's as easy as plugging the lamp in for the guest. Whatever it is, I respond as soon as I get the call. A lot of times I work ahead to keep on top of possible problems that might occur", said Jeffrey.
Jeffrey, who previously served in the United States Navy, has been an active team member with the BoMF Indy Warman Warriors team. Throughout his 15 months with the team, he has maintained 100% attendance and continues to humor our early morning runs with his "Jeffreyisms" that include words of wisdom appearing to be more of a cross between an Aesop Fable and witty sarcasm. Being one to "call it like he sees it" he is quick to recognize the BoMF volunteers as the most upbeat and dedicated folks he's ever known and explains, "Everyday the volunteers come down here and they're always happy, even early in the morning. They never complain about the gas or the time. They are real leaders who lead by example. I wouldn't be doing what I am today without Back on My Feet and the volunteers."
As the Warman Warriors' featured Runner in the Month last January, Jeffrey cited his reason for joining "Happy Feet" as he refers to it, was to obtain a job. His goal was to eventually move out of transitional housing and be a home owner again. Obtaining a job through one of Back on My Feet's job partners has moved Jeffrey one step closer to his goal.

Should batmitzvah girls be called to the Torah?
Simon Rocker
Jan 23, 2012You may have read our story in Friday's newspaper about a United Synagogue member asking the London Beth Din whether there are circumstances in which a woman could be called to the Torah.
Here is a copy of the paper submitted to the Beth Din written by Dr Alexis Brassey of Hampstead Garden Suburb Synagogue in support of his case.
An enquiry to the London Beth Din:
Sacks challenged over interfaith views
Simon Rocker
Jan 20, 2012A number of rabbis here have been talking about an article in the latest edition of Tradition, the American journal of Orthodox thought published by the mainstream Rabbinical Council of America.
It is written by Alan Jotkowitz, who is director of the Jakobovits Centre for Medical Ethics at Ben Gurion University, and is a critique of the interfaith views of Chief Rabbi Lord Sacks.
The author is an admirer of the Chief Rabbi whom he describes as "probably the world's most foremost expositor of Jewish values and ethics".
'The Orthodox World is Being Overtaken by Extremism'
Simon Rocker
Jan 6, 2012A very powerful statement on the recent religious clashes in Israel from Rabbi Shaul Robinson of Lincoln Square Synagogue, New York (considered one of the favourites for UK Chief Rabbi, should, of course, he be interested in the job).
An Israeli yeshivah head's view of Limmud
Simon Rocker
Jan 6, 2012Rabbi Herzl Hefter, head of Harel Yeshiva in Israel reflects on his recent appearance at Limmud in his weekly email letter:
"Early Friday morning I returned home to Israel from the Limmud Conference in the UK. Jews of all backgrounds, secular, Orthodox, Masorti, Reform and Liberal attended. I say 'attended' and not 'were represented' because we were all there as individual Jews, representing only ourselves, united by a thirst for Torah and community. Limmud had managed to create a wonderful "safe space" where Jews could simply encounter one another as fellow Jews. Coming from Israel, the experience was inspiring, almost intoxicating.
So why am I depressed? Because I had to write "coming from Israel…" To what did I return home? I returned home to haredi violence in Beit Shemesh and a haredi boy dressed by his parents with a yellow Star of David. According to reports, his father said that the Nazi-Zionist government's persecution of the haredim is worse than what was carried out by the Nazi regime. What would my father, who witnessed his mother being taken to be shot, who alone survived of nine brothers and sisters and unknown number of nephews, nieces and cousins, what would he say?
Nobody knows what's going on: Happy New Year

Jan 5, 2012If you have been following reports about the state of the British economy over the past month or so, you could be forgiven for believing that even if we are not already in a recession, the UK is lurching towards a double dip.
But some snapshot figures about the state of economic play, out today, tell another story. The latest CIPS/Markit survey of the services sector – which makes up 75 per cent of the UK economy – showed a jump to 54 in December, up from 52.1 in November. Readings above 50 indicate growth.
In other words, things moved fairly strongly in the opposite direction to the one expected.
Secular Israelis like 'Mixed Multitude'
Simon Rocker
Jan 5, 2012A very disturbing post on the latest religious unrest in Israel on the website Failed Messiah.
Rabbi Aharon Leib Steinman reportedly denounced secular Israelis as a "mixed multitude" who hate the Jews – a biblical reference to Egyptians and others who left Egypt with the Israelites and were regarded as a bad spiritual influence by commentators.
According to the website, Rabbi Steinman declared: "Now that we see the violence, the baseless hate, the harassment [against Charedim], we know and we understand that their ways are not like our ways, and that we certainly must distance ourselves from them, for their inside is not like their outside [ie their internal state is not like they try to appear]. They are a mixed multitude who hate the Jews."
Ken's kosher campaign?
Jennifer Lipman
Jan 4, 2012Mayoral candidate Ken Livingstone has, for whatever reason, decided that the best way to fill his campaign coffers is to give his mission some meat.
No, not substance of the political kind, but of the poultry variety. His site now boasts a "fundraising chicken". Something about Boris Johnson being too chicken to debate him.
How droll. But the real question is, is it kosher?
A Chanucah story - with a little help from Friends
Jennifer Lipman
Dec 20, 2011The festival of lights is upon us and with that in mind, I feel it is time to share my "top Jewish moment of 2011".
I was at a party earlier this year, when the subject of Chanucah traditions came up in conversation with someone for whom, it's safe to assume, December 25 is a pretty awesome day.
We discussed the usual - oily foods, eight days of presents (I wish), lighting candles - when he said (in total seriousness):
One more and we'll have a set
Jenni Frazer
Dec 19, 2011According to the Mail on Sunday, disgraced MP Aidan Burley not only sat beside his friend who wore full Nazi uniform at the now notorious French stag party, but Burley actually ordered the uniform.
This rather begs the question of not only Burley's own judgment, which we may accept is dubious, but in the Conservative Friends of Israel rush to cover him with the mantle of their blessing. "Not an antisemitic bone in his body," the CFI declared. That would be the non-antisemitic bones which persuaded him to order an SS uniform, I imagine.
Who's kidding who, here?
Burley himself, asked directly why he hadn't got up and left the event when someone appeared in SS dress, burbled something weaselly about its being difficult to leave somewhere when one was 800 miles up a mountain. Now we know: he was protecting his investment.
Here's to an apolitical Chanucah
Orlando Radice
Dec 16, 2011Today I am feeling light and serene. No, I haven't just finished a course of acupuncture. It's that I think I have been ideologically de-tethered. And it feels good.
Let me declare an interest. Before I worked at the JC, I voted Labour. That was before I began to understand the pet passions of my local MP, Jeremy Corbyn. That's right, the one who went to a jamboree in Beirut this summer with George Galloway and representatives of Hamas and Hizbollah.
Over the past couple of years, Cameron jumped into a European Parliament alliance with a man with an allegedly antisemitic past, and the Lib Dems have been, well, the Lib Dems (Jenny Tonge. 'Nuff said).

On Election Day, Oklahoma voters will decide whether to ban Islamic Sharia law from their state courts.
The ballot initiative would prohibit judges from considering Islamic or other international law when ruling on cases in the Sooner state.
Rep. Rex Duncan, R-Okla., said the bill is a move to keep judges from legislating from the bench. He believes voters will approve the measure, and hopes the nation will follow Oklahoma's lead.
"It is time for the federal government to safeguard the future of our court system for the next 100 years, while we still can," Duncan said.
Opponents said the legislation unfairly targets Muslims and is constitutionally impossible for Sharia law to be used in the United States.

Hassan Hamade questioned.
Scammers in the upper part of the "agenda"
Mr. Kofi Annan, has to accept how to ensure that such atrocities were committed under its authority? The total silence on their part. Have you ever heard about a crime that "The lack of assistance to vulnerable persons" means? But you must not ignore the laws….
The rest, which is torture!

Floors make such a difference to the way a room looks and feels. Whether you want dirt, brick, concrete, tile, once you have it finished, you will see the light at the end of your building tunnel.
A brick floor is not only beautiful, it is much easier to do than you would think. A 130 square foot room took two inexperienced people – one passing the bricks, one laying them – two hours to complete, once the area had been leveled.
Slabs consist of reinforced concrete about 3-6 inches thick. They can then be painted, stained or covered with another floor material.
Tiles and carpet are one of the many options used to finish out your flooring. They can both be aesthetically pleasing.

From Russia With Doubt: Adam Lerner discusses the risky exhibition of unverified art
In 2010, Adam Lerner was presented with what looked like a collection of pieces from the Russian Avant-Garde masters. Though the origin of the works was unverified, he showed them anyway -- a potentially career-shattering move for Lerner, who had recently taken the position of director at the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver. Lerner's new book, From Russia With Doubt, details how this work came to him, what he went through to exhibit it and what he learned along the way.
This Saturday, November 23, Lerner will host From Russia With Drinks, a celebration and conversation about his new book at the MCA Denver. In advance of that get-together, Westword spoke with Lerner about this strange tale and why he gambled on 181 paintings bought by collectors in an eBay auction.
See also: Now Showing: Adam Lerner and Adam Gildar
Westword: Why did you decide to do this exhibition in the first place?
Adam Lerner: It's hard for somebody who's not in the museum field to understand just how unusual it is to produce an exhibition and not know anything about where the objects that you're exhibiting came from. To not know if they were fakes, student works or works by the masters. I have to admit that it was frightening for me to go against all of the conventions of my field -- but I felt like there was something that was very powerful about a body of work that was so good, but also completely mysterious.
I overcame all of these fears of basically violating the rules of my field and decided to produce an exhibition because first, I loved the works. And second, I think the works say something profound about what it is we value when we value art.
You bring it up in the preface of the book, but there is so much authentication in our daily lives. And with art, I mean, art can mean a lot of things -- but one of those things is that we don't know. We don't know the origin of a piece, and maybe we just like looking at it.
Sometimes there is a tendency for museums to care so much about art, they forget about, like, why art even matters. I think that art matters because we want something that feels powerful and mysterious. It comes from some place that is beyond -- something that feels completely different from everything else in our lives. That's what these objects had.
I wouldn't assume that this kind of situation happens often, where work crosses your path that isn't authenticated, but what was it about these paintings that made you take the chance? Was it because there was so much of it? Or because you just really liked this period and style? Or?
What I try to address in the book is that, well, all of the above. First of all, the works are freaking awesome. Second, that period in art -- the Russian Avant Garde -- is just so exciting. If you asked me what my ideal dinner party is, it's where I get to sit around a table with a bunch of people who love Russian Avant Garde and we can just talk all night about how much we love it. There is something about that period that is really exciting to me.
It is also a very mysterious period, because all of these artists died young and there's not that many works of theirs that exist or are easy to see. The work was great and it had the energy of revolution -- and some of that feels rare and precious at the same time. Even, at times, spiritual.
The works are great, the time period is amazing. Then there's something that I try to tell in the story about them: Everybody -- and to some extent, including me in this book -- is a little bit crazy. The people who have collected 181 unauthenticated paintings are clearly crazy. The people who sold it to them -- if you could just see them, they are completely quirky individuals who are mid-level insurance administrators who love to tell these crazy stories and create almost like fairytale narratives. All of the art dealers who sell this stuff, they themselves have a little bit of eccentricity to them and they are always fighting with each other. The artists who made the stuff are fighting with each other. And me. I'm kind of crazy for doing this exhibition.
What I'm trying to say is, on some level, all of us are in this big, crazy enterprise together -- and there is something beautiful about that.

Summer thrums. Life is ascendant under the sun, endlessly cycling in little eddies cast in the wake of successively larger cycling seasons, planets, stars, and galaxies. Each cycle has its own frequency, its own back and forth, hither and yon, its own signature in the guest book of eternity. Einstein supposedly said "Everything in life is vibration," which makes sense when you think about the pulsing physics of subatomic particles. If everything in life is vibration, then everything has a frequency, like the tone produced by a guitar string or piano wire. Summer days are strung tight across the long heated expanse between dawn and dusk, relaxing only slightly through the night. You can hear it in the cicada's song, in the caustic caw of the crow, in the whine of tire treads incessant on the interstate. And in the afternoon heat on our back terrace, you can hear it humming in the honeysuckle.
Two weeks after summer break began, Head O' Meadow School classrooms were abuzz again, this time with excitement as Summer Music And Arts (SMART) Camp celebrated its opening day on July 1. This year is the 22nd summer the SMART Camp has offered continuing education programs for children exiting kindergarten through sixth grade. Monday was the first day of two two-week programs, comprising 21 different subjects, focusing on art, music, science, and other subjects. Instructors wasted no time getting campers immersed in hands-on projects, such as crafting clay pinch pots in the Great Clay Adventure class; synthesizing oobleck, a non-Newtonian fluid, in the Icky Sticky Ooey Gooey Chemistry class; and performing dramatic skits in the Theater and Performance Workshop. Each class runs an hour and a half, and is taught by professional artists and teachers.
Liz Carroll, the legendary Irish fiddler and composer, was having a very good week when I spoke with her. She had just got back from teaching at the O'Flaherty Irish Music Youth Camp in Texas; her hometown hockey team, the Chicago Blackhawks, had won the Stanley Cup; and she was looking forward to her upcoming concert in Newtown with her longtime friends and fellow Chicago residents, tenor banjo player Pauline Conneely and flutist and uilleann piper Sean Gavin. Fairfield County's Shamrock Traditional Irish Music Society will bring the trio to Newtown Meeting House on Thursday, July 11, at 7:30 pm. This is a rare chance for folks in this to see — and hear — a collaboration between some of the best in Irish traditional music in America.
Those who are familiar with the annual Friends of the C.H. Booth Library Book Sale know that the volunteers strive to make each year bigger and better than the previous one. Whether it is a change of venue that offers air-conditioned comfort, precise categorization of fiction and nonfiction books, or the discovery of rare editions that provide exciting opportunities, the Friends freshen up the popular event every summer. This year, donations have provided the Friends with plenty of new material to offer to the public. There is a large sci-fi collection ready for this year's sale, which opens at Reed Intermediate School on July 13. More than 1,000 DVDs will also be offered this year and, thanks to a recent purchase by the Friends, most will no longer be sold "Buyer Beware."
Newtown, from a cat's point of view.
This year Musicals at Richter has departed from its usual format by having their first production be a two-week run of Some Enchanted Evening, a review of the songs of Rodgers and Hammerstein, some forty numbers chosen from their most popular showsincluding Oklahoma!, Carousel, The King and I, South Pacific, and The Sound of Music, as well as some from shows you've probably never seen: State Fair, Allegro, Flower Drum Song, Me and Juliet, and Cinderella. The good thing about this format is that, with no story line to distract attention, it allows audiences to recognize just how amazingly talented this duo was, and to realize how many of Rodgers' haunting melodies are engraved in our collective memory, while appreciating what a great lyricist Hammerstein really was.
A look back at Newtown 25, 50, 75, and 100 years ago.
The Great Newtown Reunion Committee has opened up the process for individuals wishing to purchase a ticket to the all-day July 27 event. The event is open to all current and former students of Newtown public schools and St Rose, as well as faculty, administrative staff, maintenance, independent bus drivers and school system volunteers; and any past or present Board of Education members, town employees including emergency and fire department volunteers, according to reunion committee organizers.

I currently have several lavender colored azaleas in the front of my house. They are about 4-5 feet tall. They just opened up this week. I don't know what they are but I would like to put some more azaleas in the front of my house on the other side for balance. I'm looking for azaleas that have the same bloom time and will reach the same height. I'm especially hoping for a white early bloomer. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Lavender-colored and blooming in April in z6, probably Azalea poukhanense. 4-5' is not the limit for this azalea. I saw specimans of 7-8' tall and maybe as wide. White, about the same proportions and early blooming would be rhododendron dauricum 'Alba' ('Madison Snow'?), but in my garden it blooms two weeks before poukhanense. |

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Racism still prevalent
Now that the votes are counted and Barack Obama will be our next president, some say this spells the end of racism. That's true only if you define racism as whites against blacks, as opposed to the broader and more accurate sense of the word.
Webster's clearly defines racism as: "any program or practice of racial discrimination." When 95 percent of blacks vote for a black person, that seems like racism. Ordinarily, we couldn't get 95 percent of people to agree the sun rises in the east. Obama himself was the only candidate for the presidency who ever brought up race, thereby making race a central theme, at least for him. Many black people were interviewed before they voted and when exiting the polling places, and many of their answers showed they couldn't name any of Obama's policies or his running mate or who was in control of Congress. They just wanted a black man to win.
How would this have played out if John McCain had gotten 95 percent of the white vote, including those who were grossly uninformed about his policies and running mate?
There is much work to do on this issue. I saw blacks being interviewed during this past week and their sheer joy was a pleasure to see. That does not change the fact that when people of all colors vote based on the qualifications and policies of the candidate, regardless of skin color, then perhaps we will finally have put racism to bed.
Right info, right people
Regarding your editorial board's opinion expressing fear that Barack Obama will become isolated in a tight cocoon ("Isolating president not best option," Our View, Nov. 19), I would agree that some degree of isolation is expected and indeed important given the increased level of racist attacks seen recently nationwide. However, the isolation fear may be unfounded for one very important reason: the style difference between Barack Obama and the current president.
President George W. Bush made decisions based on a small number of closely trusted allies such as Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and a few others. As a result, his decision-making ability was limited by the need to trust those few close allies. President-elect Obama, however, has shown from the beginning of his campaign that he is both able and willing to seek advisement from a wide variety of experts. Obama is broadly expected to build a strong team, to begin getting the right things done quickly, and to have considerable impact even before he takes office.
This is because he has shown that he has the intensity and curiosity to get the right information from the right people, and the decisiveness to use that information to make the right decisions. This is the kind of leader that America needed to elect. It is time to stop generating fear and put our full support behind our new president-elect.
Trust Obama's decision
It is time to give Hillary Clinton a break, time to set aside recriminations and second-guessing her intent. Americans put their trust in Barack Obama to lead the nation, because they saw in him a genuine alliance of brain power, altruism and charisma with the ability to take the country forward.
We have made our choice quite clear and should now help Obama fulfill that dream. The president-elect reminds me of another promising leader who worked to elevate the poor and bridge the country's divisions. One would imagine Robert F. Kennedy's words resonating deep in Obama's soul: "There are those who look at things the way they are, and ask why … I dream of things that never were, and ask why not?"
The world never dreamed of an America ready to elect its first young, courageous, black president. And "why not?" If we had the courage and willpower to do so, if we decided he has political acumen and has already shown a bipartisan openness in his cabinet choices, why not trust his judgment?
It's time to recognize Clinton's formidable intelligence, tenacity and loyalty. It's time to look forward to a solid partnership, not a passé rivalry.
Too self-absorbed for State
Hillary Clinton as secretary of state is a bad choice for President-elect Barack Obama. He doesn't owe her or the Clintons anything. New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson would be a great choice. He would focus on helping Obama solve international issues with diplomacy. Clinton would use the job as a soapbox to promote what is most dear to her — me, me, me. And with her burger-gobbling husband in the shadows, it would be like having the wolf watching the hen house.
Other countries would look at the United States and ask Obama if he needs to check with Hillary Clinton first and laugh. Please pray that she spends the next four years doing what she does best, cracking that phony smile and touring the country talking about herself.
Chance to close border
Gov. Janet Napolitano has repeatedly complained that our border security problem is the responsibility of the federal government, and in particular the Department of Homeland Security, to fund and operate. As secretary of Homeland Security, she should have no problem getting the border secured next year.
After all, her party runs the whole show in Washington, D.C. If she does not have the border secure before 2010, we'll know how much she really cares about Arizona and national security and should not be our senator.

Neural Correlates of Auditory Perception: Effects of hearing loss and experience during development.
The neural coding of complex natural signals, such as animal communication sounds, is not well understood. We take advantage of variations in each animal's ability to discriminate these sounds, and use this variability to identify the neural mechanisms that encode these signals. For example, animals will vary naturally in their perceptual abilities due to age; this emerges from maturational differences in the nervous system. Animals will also vary due to their auditory experience, which we can manipulate and which affects nervous system development. We can then correlate perception with neural activity: correlating animal's discrimination performance with their neural activity allows us to identify the neural coding that underlies specific perceptual abilities.
To this end, we are examining the development and dysfunction of acoustic communication in the Mongolian gerbil. Gerbils are social animals with a hearing range comparable to humans and distinct communication signals in that range. We use behavioral, electrophysiological, and computational techniques to examine how species-specific communications are represented across populations of cells in the nervous system, and how those representations shift with normal and pathological auditory experiences.
We can address questions such as: How do hearing deficits affect the processing of natural signals? How are behaviorally relevant signals represented in the auditory system? How are the representations encoded in the activity patterns of single neurons and populations of cells across different brain regions?

About Kitten Rescue
About Our Rescue Group...
Welcome! Kitten Rescue is a non-profit organization located in the Los Angeles area, devoted to rescuing needy kittens and cats from shelter euthanasia and abandonment. We provide our rescued cats with all necessary medical attention and ongoing treatment to establish their health, while caring for them in foster homes, where they're given abundant love and affection. The kitties like that part the best!Kitten Rescue presents cats for adoption regularly at locations all over Los Angeles County, in addition to conducting private adoptions during the week, with the goal of finding loving, committed homes for every animal we take in. We also offer education and help to the public regarding all aspects of responsible pet ownership, care of kittens and cats, and the importance of spaying and neutering.
Come Meet Our Pets...
All our kitties live in foster homes and can be visited at one of our four weekly adoption events! Check our website for our adoption events and locations near you!http://www.kittenrescuela.org/Upcoming-adoption-events.html
Our Adoption Process...
When you choose to adopt one of Kitten Rescue's animals, required adoption donations begin at $120.00. All of our cats have been spayed/neutered, tested for leukemia and FIV, vaccinated, dewormed, treated for fleas and microchipped prior to adoption.Many of our cats have also received additional vet care as needed, such as surgery for injuries or congenital problems, treatment for ear, eye, upper respiratory infections, and viruses. Additional veterinary care beyond these services, for the (hopefully) long life of your cat, will be your responsibility.
Please be aware that there is a screening process involved in adopting a pet from Kitten Rescue. To help ensure that we place our cats in loving, responsible, and committed homes, we reserve the right to turn down potential adopters as we deem necessary. A home delivery or visit is a required part of the adoption procedure.
If for any reason you wish or need to return a cat you've adopted from us, you can do so within 72 hours for a full refund of the adoption donation. After that, be it months or years later and we're still in existence, if you need to give up the animal, please bring it to us. We won't be able to refund the adoption fee, but we will place it in a new home.
Kitten Rescue cats are so for life...we're always here to answer questions and help solve problems.

Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Taz!
Facts about Taz
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Orange Or Red
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Taz's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, declawed, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Taz- I am a one year old declawed boy. I am friendly and cuddly, but not fond of being picked up. I am definitely a love bug. I like to follow you around everywhere, greet you when you wake up.
I love attention and I am very purry when I am pet.
I love to play with toys and I have even taken up the sport of cabinet opening... I am pretty smart, after all. If you can give me a home please call Paula: 610-799-0892[1-1-13]
Other Pets at Forgotten Felines & Fidos
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Taz, a Germansville Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Germansville, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Germansville.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Germansville already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Germansville breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Germansville paves the way for another one to be saved.

Sep 3rd 2010 7:56PM Mel,
Get with the times... the only reason to "own" a movie is for collection purposes and for that you want best quality possible- a Blu-Ray. "Buying" digital movies to me is very stupid because unlike a song you don't play them every day and they occupy too much space.
If I want to "own" a movie I would not buy it on Apple TV anyway!
Now, the reason I am holding on getting a new one (and I own the previous model), is because I am still waiting for either more networks to come on board , including "premium" channels like HBO... That OR I do what I really want which is get a new Mac Mini w/ Boxee/Plex/Hulu and the iPhone as a remote...
Just need to convince my wife as to why I would buy that instead of a new patio table and chairs...
