Summer Beer
Courtesy A.J. Rathbun
- ice cubes
- 1 bottle beer (go with a nice American brew in this one, such as Miller High Life)
- 9 oz. fresh lemonade
- 1 -1/2 oz. vodka
- lemon slice for garnish
Add a good-sized handful of ice to a 24-ounce "big girl" beer glass. Add 8 ounces of the lemonade to the glass. Slowly, carefully, add the bottle of beer to the glass (go too fast and it's a mess). Add the vodka, then top it off with the last ounce of lemonade. Stir once, with a mighty long spoon. Squeeze the lemon slice over the top and drop it in.

Post Content
Posted by:
Commissioner John Auerbach, Department of Public Health
This year the residents of Massachusetts and the nation faced the unusual occurrence of two simultaneous types of influenza – both seasonal and H1N1. This increases the risk of illness for all Americans. Fortunately, we have very effective tools to prevent both influenzas in the form of safe and reliable vaccines. Unfortunately, neither the seasonal nor the H1N1 vaccines are as widely available as we would like.
Certain delays in developing the H1N1 vaccine were anticipated, since it was a novel virus. What wasn't fully understood was how the dual goal of producing two types of flu vaccines would also affect the availability of the seasonal flu vaccine. The same pharmaceutical companies are producing both vaccines. And while they have done an admirable job, the added production and distribution pressures have resulted in delays in filling the orders of seasonal flu vaccine in our state and throughout the country.
Complicating things further is the fact that the demand for seasonal flu vaccine this year is unprecedented. This is a result in part of the good work that has been done by local, state and federal public health officials in educating the public about the benefits of vaccine. The original plan of the federal government was to complete the production and distribution of the seasonal flu vaccine at the earliest possible date – several months before the seasonal flu begins to appear later in the year. Federal guidance encouraged widespread seasonal flu vaccination efforts as early as possible so as not to compete with the later efforts regarding H1N1 vaccination.
Unlike H1N1 vaccine, most of the seasonal flu vaccine in Massachusetts and other states is ordered and paid for by the private sector. Hospitals, pharmacy chains, private group practices, employers and others order large quantities of vaccine directly from the pharmaceutical companies. The specifics of the quantities ordered and the arrangements regarding price and distribution are not overseen by or shared with government agencies. This leads to a situation where private entities – such as pharmacies and supermarkets – may have seasonal flu vaccine earlier and in larger quantities than local public health agencies and others who receive their allocations from the state health department.
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health typically orders about 30% of the seasonal flu vaccine in our state. We distribute our flu vaccine to local health departments, community health centers, elder health programs and other community-based programs that serve some of the most vulnerable residents of the Commonwealth. On any given year, the amount we purchase exceeds demand, and we end up with unused vaccine. However, because of the particular concerns this year we increased our order by 10%, to 885,000 doses.
As of the third week of October we have received and distributed 631,530 doses of seasonal flu vaccine or about 71% of our total order of 885,000 doses. We have been informed by the manufacturers that we can expect additional shipments over the course of the next 4-6 weeks with the balance of our vaccine likely arriving by the end of November. We have heard reports that the supply situation for private-purchased vaccine is similar.
The combination of the unprecedented demand for seasonal flu vaccine and the delays in shipments have meant that numerous local flu clinics have had to be cancelled or postponed and certain clinical practices have run short. Fortunately, we do not expect to see the arrival of seasonal flu until later in the year, as the largest number of seasonal flu cases usually occur in January and February.
Given the unpredictability of the vaccine production and distribution process this year, we are reluctant to make predictions but we anticipate that as supplies arrive during the next several weeks, there will be additional opportunities for vaccination. We will do our best to alert local health departments and other community health providers as the situation changes.

Gizmos, Gadgets and Goodies Guide #4 - TekGems
It's time for our forth Gizmos, Gadgets and Goodies Guide where we look at new and funky products from Everglide, Antec, Memory.com, Kore Computers, ThermalTake and TekGems.TekGems WinAMP Remote Control
When first receiving the WinAMP remote control from TekGems, we noticed a logo on the bottom of the remote and for ages it bothered us wondering what it was. Finally when it came to installing and paying a little attention to the manual, it was quickly discovered that it was made by Packard Bell. The relief was instant!
Setting up the remote isn't hard...if you chose to read the instruction manual. Included within the package is everything you need to get the remote up and running. First we have the installation guide, the remote, an infrared receiver, a CD with everything needed and a manual explaining the remote.
Included on the CD is WinAMP 3, infrared software and the necessary plug-in to get the remote up and running. Once everything is installed, make your way to the plug-in section of WinAMP and after adding the included plug-in, you can map your keys out as you wish. Once you have decided what buttons want to control what, you are ready to sit back and cruise your mp3z, control volume and so forth without any effort at all.
The remote control isn't too bad - it does what it's suppose to but would probably only suit a small group of people. The remote is best suited for a PC home entertainment system where you're sitting back on the couch or walking around the house and getting to your keyboard involves stretching your arm more than a few centimeters.

Carl Edwards Crew Chief Jimmy Fennig Makes Right Call at Bristol
Southfield, Michigan, March 18, 2014.Carl Edwards crew chief Jimmy Fennig might have wanted to join his driver in a post-race backflip after making the late call that propelled Edwards and the No. 99 Kellogg's Ford Fusion to victory in Sunday's Food City 500 NASCAR® Sprint Cup race at Bristol (Tenn.) Motor Speedway. Fennig told Edwards to trust his tires for the final 71 laps of the half-mile concrete oval, a strategy that enabled the 99 car to maintain the advantage in a race that had seen 20 lead changes and plenty of unpredictable moments. In addition to his trip to victory lane, Fennig was rewarded with Federal-Mogul's (NASDAQ: FDML) MOOG® Steering and Suspension Problem Solver of the Race Award, which is presented to the crew chief whose car posts the greatest second-half improvement in average lap time while finishing on the lead lap. After a nearly three-and-a-half-hour rain delay, the MOOG-equipped 99 Ford jumped 0.297 seconds per lap over the last 250 laps at Bristol and was never running stronger than in that 71-lap sprint to the checkered flag. "Jimmy made absolutely the right call at the end - they ran their best lap times of the night during that final stretch on the old tires," said Federal-Mogul Motorsports Director Tim Nelson. "But that decision shouldn't overshadow the fact that the 99 car kept getting stronger throughout the second half. That's a testament to the guy on the pit box who is dialing in the chassis to address changing track conditions." And there were plenty of changes thanks to more than five hours of rain-related downtime, including the three-hour 19-minute delay after Lap 124. Nevertheless, during virtually every pit stop, Fennig and the Roush Fenway Racing crew adjusted the car's MOOG-equipped steering and suspension to maintain or enhance handling on a track where even the slightest advantage can be significant in the end. Edwards was followed to the finish by Roush Fenway teammate Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (No. 17 Ford) and Richard Petty Motorsports' Aric Almirola (No. 43 Ford), both of whom rely on MOOG steering and suspension parts. In addition to the weekly MOOG Problem Solver award, Federal-Mogul sponsors the $100,000 MOOG Problem Solver of the Year Award, presented to the crew chief with the best overall performance throughout the 36-race season. MOOG Steering and Suspension is the preferred brand of professional technicians and NASCAR crew chiefs, and MOOG components are recognized as the automotive service industry's "Problem Solver," with innovative parts that improve on original designs by providing increased durability, improved performance and easier installation. NASCAR Cup champions have driven to victory with MOOG parts for an unprecedented 48 straight years.

A Qantas flight from Los Angeles to Melbourne was turned back about an hour into the 14-hour flight after water started gushing down the aisle into economy from a leaking pipe in business class.
A spokeswoman for the airline said the captain decided to return the A380 to Los Angeles due to passenger discomfort, rather than any fears about safety.
The water came from the plane's drinking water supply, she said.
It leaked into the economy cabin through the roof, from the business class cabin on the upper deck.
"It wasn't a safety issue, it was just passenger discomfort," the spokeswoman said.
''It was an inconvenience for passengers. Crew did everything they could by moving passengers to unaffected areas and giving them extra blankets.''
She confirmed the flight had been returned to Los Angeles. She said engineers were assessing the leak and whether it could be repaired or if another aircraft would be needed to fly to Melbourne.
After contacting Sydney headquarters for advice from engineers, Fairfax Media understands the crew was told to turn the plane back.
#Breaking - #Qantas flight forced back to LA | Passenger tells #7News water 'soaked through roof into economy' pic.twitter.com/SzfNZhyl7k
— 7News Yahoo!7 (@Y7News) July 2, 2014
One passenger who contacted Fairfax Media said he understood the leak started in the water supply pipes at the rear of business class on the upper deck. The water then flowed down, landing on up to 80 passengers sitting in economy.
The passenger, who wanted to remain anonymous, said Qantas staff handled the situation professionally and passengers were largely understanding.
''It's just like the weather, there's no point worrying about it because you can't do anything about it,'' he said.
Passengers on board the flight, which departed about 11pm Tuesday local time, were being put up in hotels overnight while the plane was assessed by engineers, the spokeswoman said.
The plane returned to Los Angeles at about 2.30am on Wednesday morning, local time. Passengers are expected to depart Los Angeles at 8pm on Wednesday.
Flight QF94, an A380 Airbus, had left Los Angeles Airport on time at 11.30pm on Monday night.
News of the leaking pipe reached Twitter not long after the plane landed back in Los Angeles.

— yvette nicole brown (@YNB) July 2, 2014
The mishap follows another incident in April, when another Los Angeles-Melbourne flight involving an A380 Airbus was turned back due to a fuel pump fault. Then, a warning light alerted crew to a problem with the fuel pumps approximately 4.5 hours into the flight.
In a statement on the airlines website, Qantas apologised to customers and stressed there were no safety of flight concerns with the water leak.
The airline said it would liaise with Airbus to understand what caused the fault.

L.A. still interested in Russell Martin
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Los Angeles Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti said his team still has an interest in re-signing Russell Martin as a multiple-position player even with two other catchers apparently already in the fold, but that Martin, a former Gold Glove catcher, likely won't get much time behind the plate if he does re-sign with the club.
However, with media reports having surfaced that Martin is being pursued by the Toronto Blue Jays, Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees and Colorado Rockies -- all of whom presumably would want him to catch on at least a semi-regular basis -- there now appears to be little to no chance that Martin will return.
The Dodgers are close to an agreement with free-agent catcher Dioner Navarro -- the same guy Martin supplanted when the Dodgers initially called him up in 2006 -- giving them a catching tandem of Navarro and Rod Barajas and leaving little room for Martin. Although Colletti declined to confirm Navarro has agreed to terms on a one-year contract, he conceded Martin's window for returning, at least as a catcher, might be closing quickly.
"I talked [Tuesday] night with Matt [Colleran, Martin's agent]," Colletti said. "I have been clear all along. I told him a few days ago that we would keep doing business with them and that we have an interest in bringing him back. But at some point in time, there aren't going to be any chairs left."
When the Dodgers announced last Thursday that they were non-tendering Martin but that they still hoped to re-sign him, Colletti said he wanted Martin to be open to playing other positions such as first base, third base and left field.
"If everybody plays really well and everybody stays completely healthy, it would be tough to find a lot of games for him behind the plate," Colletti said.
Dodgers open to re-signing Podsednik
The Dodgers also remain open to re-signing left fielder Scott Podsednik, who declined his half of a $2 million mutual option after the season but apparently hasn't found as much of a market for his services as he had hoped.
The club still needs an every-day left fielder despite having signed first baseman-outfielder Jay Gibbons, who will be their primary left-handed pinch hitter, and having agreed in principle on a one-year, $675,000 deal with Tony Gwynn Jr., who will be a backup outfielder.
"If we don't sign anybody [at the winter meetings] or between now and the opening of [spring training], we aren't without options," Colletti said.
Colletti listed Xavier Paul, Gibbons and Jamie Hoffmann, all of whom are on the 40-man roster, as being among those options.
Minor league system honored
More From ESPNLosAngeles.com
For more news, notes and analysis of the Dodgers, check out ESPN LA's Dodgers Report. Blog
The Dodgers were named by Topps on Wednesday as the 2010 Organization of the Year, an award that is based on a team's minor league system and is determined by a formula that awards points based on the number of minor league All-Stars, player-of-the-month awards, player-of-the-year awards and a handful of other accolades.
The Dodgers, who received the award for the first time since 1997, are the first organization to receive the award six times. The award came despite the widespread perception that the Dodgers' system isn't especially deep in major league-ready prospects.
"I think it shows our system is strong," said DeJon Watson, the Dodgers' assistant general manager for player development. "People don't recognize how many strong arms we have and how many strong outfielders we have. I can't say we're No. 1 [in terms of minor league talent], but I think we're in the top 10."
Moves made in scouting staff
Logan White, the Dodgers' assistant GM for scouting, announced a handful of assignment changes and a slight restructuring within his staff, starting with the fact he doesn't plan to replace scouting director Tim Hallgren. Hallgren left the organization in October to become a national cross-checker for the Detroit Tigers.
Paul Fryer, one of the Dodgers' two national cross-checkers, is being promoted to the newly created position of global cross-checker, meaning he will follow up on players the organization is scouting all over the world. John Green, the team's East Coast scouting supervisor, will move into Fryer's old spot. Midwest scouting supervisor Gary Nickels will replace Green as East Coast supervisor. The Midwest supervisor's position is being eliminated, but Nickels and West Coast supervisor Brian Stephenson will be responsible for the continental U.S.

Although I am primarily a saxophonist, flute is a secondary instrument that most saxophonists also have to know how to play. As a performer it is an absolute necessity that I be able to double on the flute and be just as proficient.
My goal as a teacher is to provide an in depth understanding of the instrument to my students. Whether we are learning technique specific to the instrument or general musical concepts, it is important to me that I take the time to insure that my students not only learn how to do something, but also the reasons why we are learning a specific concept or technique. At the end of the day, my ultimate goal is to teach you how to teach yourself, so that you may enjoy playing the instrument outside of our lessons together.
I prefer not to conform to a specific teaching style, because every student is different, and I have been fortunate to have a great variety of types of students throughout my years as a teacher. Some of my students are children and

His main area of expertise is performing as a jazz saxophonist on alto, tenor, and soprano saxophones, and he regularly plays throughout New York City in restaurants and jazz clubs.

Both teaching and performing have always been a large part of my life. Even as early as high school (Kiev State R.M.Gliere Higher College of music), I was already conducting private lessons and directing the wind ensemble. And it was at the St. Petersburg Conservatory in Russia, that I received my Masters Degree in Music Education, Performance and Conducting. During the period from 1977-89, I held the position of principal Clarinet in the St. Petersburg Symphony and Kiev State Opera orchestras. At the same time, I worked as a professor at the Kiev State Music Academy. When I immigrated to the US in 1989, I pursued various performance opportunities and was even offered a position in âThe Presidentâs Ownâ military band in Washington, DC. Unfortunately, due to extenuating ...

Science & TechnologyGoogle faces EU action over privacy policy Six data protection agencies launch co-ordinated probe into US web giant's new monitoring powers. 02 Apr 2013 20:49 GMT | Science & Technology, Europe, US & Canada, France, Germany Critics argue Google's new policy gives it an unprecedented ability to monitor its users [GALLO/GETTY]Six European countries, including France and Britain, have launched a joint action against Google to get the US Internet giant to scale back on new monitoring powers that watchdogs believe violate EU privacy protection rules. France's Cnil data protection agency said in a statement that the concerted action was launched "on the basis of the provisions laid down in their respective national legislation" to force Google to bring its privacy policy in line with European regulations. Authorities in Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain will also investigate the Internet giant's privacy policy.The action came after the EU's 27 member states warned Google in October not to apply the new policy, and gave it four months to make changes or face legal action. When that deadline expired in February, several European data protection agencies set up a task force to pursue a co-ordinated action against the search engine pioneer. Despite sharp criticism from US and European consumer advocacy groups, Google last year rolled out a common user privacy policy for its services that condensed around 60 previous sets of rules into one and allowed the company to track users more closely to develop targeted advertising. Among the Google services affected were Gmail, YouTube, the Android mobile system, social networks and its ubiquitous internet search engine.No changes Cnil said it had seen no changes to Google's privacy policy since the company's representatives met on March 19 with the task force, which included agencies from Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain. Cnil also said it had notified Google that it had launched an inspection procedure. Google has repeatedly maintained that its privacy policy respects European law. In a statement sent to the AFP news agency, the company said "privacy policy respects European law and allows us to create simpler, more effective services. We have engaged fully with the data protection agencies involved throughout this process, and we'll continue to do so going forward". But critics argue that the new policy gives the operator of the world's largest search engine an unprecedented ability to monitor its users. EU Justice Commissioner Viviane Reding welcomed the move. "It is good to see that six national data protection authorities are teaming up to enforce Europe's common data protection rules," she said in an emailed comment."I am confident that the European Parliament and the EU member states will strengthen Europe's enforcement tools substantially in the course of this year." Still, the news took little toll on Google's shares, which in mid-day New York trading were 1.12 percent higher at $810.15, while the Nasdaq index of technology shares was up by 1.04 percent overall.Source: Agencies

Ask Slashdot: Taking a New Tack On Net Neutrality? 185
from the bad-idea-is-putting-it-lightly dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
My read is that their intent is a little more targeted: find 10-15 companies that specifically target college students with online services like textbook rental, and find some way to siphon off a portion of those companies' revenue stream in return for "delivering" them access to the 15k users. Then leave the rest of the web unfiltered. This is essentially the model of net-non-neutrality ISPs have been using with Netflix, but in a "softer" sense, where it isn't actually blocked, but service is degraded. They leave most sites alone (because there's no money in them), and go after a handful of potential cash cows for a cut of the revenue.
My guess is that this company saw what ISPs have been doing with Netflix, and wonder if it's possible to do with other sectors than video streaming, too. It's harder to do with non-bandwidth-intensive sites, though. An ISP can soft-block Netflix by just degrading the access, and even have some plausible deniability (blame Netflix's ISP or servers for the poor performance), which some people will believe. But a textbook rental site doesn't need streaming HD video levels of bandwidth, so you might have to block them entirely to make this scheme work. And people will notice/complain about that much more.
> Right now the network is more or less open, except that we block access (by court order) to certain sites at the request of various copyright holder
Look into the history of DMCA "takedown orders". It can get quite odd: take a look at https://torrentfreak.com/fox-d... [torrentfreak.com] for how mentioning the takedown orders can lead to a takedown order.
That's what I told them everyone would tell us if we started pushing the idea. But, they don't pay me for my initial reactions.
I've delegated a lot of work to look at implementation costs, and what has flowed back up to me is that they are not that high. However, what I don't have the expertise to gauge are the ongoing costs like lawsuits and such. Our inside counselors are mostly real estate law professionals with a few commercial litigators and my feedback from them has been mostly pages filled with question marks.
We provide "network access" as part of rent, not "Internet Access." Students are free to use other means such as cellular modems to access the Internet if they do not agree with our ToS, but for the vast majority of them, the network we provide with filtered access to the Internet is sufficient for their needs. The rest of our "network" are basically various Intranet sites they can use to pay rent, order maintenance, report problems with utilities or grounds, manage their lease, and manage Bursar DirectPay, where their rent is paid directly from student loan proceeds received by the school, or Parent DirectPay, where rent is billed directly to their parents via ACH or credit card payment.
In any case, I intend to give the board an honest assessment, even though I think this is a terrible idea. I hope to God they don't decide to force this steaming pile of shit upon me.
Have you reconsidered a computer career?

Who Dats to check out the new look of SuperDome

posted Aug 11 2011 1:20PM
Just 24 hours away from Gameday and the start of the Saints preseason. Who Dat, it's the 49's from San Francisco at the Dome at 7pm. If you got tickets you will be one of the first fans to see all the newly completed upgrades to the Superdome. Some say all the improvements and "all the bells and whistles'' makes it like a new facility. The latest work is part of a multi-phase $336 million project begun after Hurricane Katrina wrecked the building, stripping away part of the roof and dumping water throughout.  Saints owner Tom Benson says the result is equivalent to the new facility he was pushing for before the 2005 storm. Gov. Bobby Jindal says work was done at a fraction of the cost of a new stadium and the Superdome will provide $41.1 billion in economic benefits to the city and state. GO SAINTS

FirstEnergy Corp. reports fourth-quarter profit versus year-earlier loss
February 25, 2014 9:33 AM
FirstEnergy Corp. (NYSE: FE) has reported a fourth-quarter profit compared to a year-earlier loss, though its earnings for the full year in 2013 were well below its net income for all of 2012.
The Akron-based electric company said its net income in the latest fourth quarter totaled $142 million, or 34 cents a share on a diluted basis. In the fourth quarter of 2012, FirstEnergy lost $148 million, or 35 cents a share. Its revenue rose to $3.6 billion from $3.5 billion.
For the full year, FirstEnergy's per-share earnings fell 49%, to 94 cents from $1.85.
"Our solid results for the fourth quarter and the full year of 2013 are at the upper end of our guidance," FirstEnergy president and CEO Anthony J. Alexander said in a news release. "We also took a series of decisive actions during 2013 that were intended to strengthen our financial position and reposition the company to focus on more predictable and stable growth initiatives in our regulated businesses. This growth strategy features a $4.2 billion planned investment in our transmission business over the next four years."
FirstEnergy said its fourth-quarter 2013 operating earnings benefited from higher distribution revenues, higher regulated generation operating margin, and increased investment income and lower interest expense compared to the prior-year period. It said results were hurt "by lower commodity margin at the competitive energy services segment, and higher operating expenses."
Total distribution deliveries increased 4% compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. FirstEnergy said the increase was largely due to colder temperatures compared to the fourth quarter of 2012, which drove a 3% increase in sales to both residential and commercial customers. Sales to industrial customers increased by 6% compared to the prior-year period.
FirstEnergy affirmed its 2014 guidance of operating earnings on a per-share basis in a range of $2.45 to $2.85 and provided first-quarter operating earnings guidance in a range of 35 cents to 45 cents a share.
