Petco Park, San Diego, California
SAN DIEGO -- Anthony Rizzo was back in San Diego, so he hit the beach.
Rizzo hit a go-ahead, two-run home run into the sandy play area beyond the fence in right-center at Petco Park against his old team and the Chicago Cubs beat the punchless San Diego Padres 5-1 Thursday night. Rizzo's shot helped back Jake Arrieta, who pitched six strong innings.The left-handed Rizzo put the Cubs ahead 2-1 in the fourth with a 417-foot homer to center on a 3-1 fastball from lefty Eric Stults. It was his eighth."If you hit a ball well, if you get it, you're going to get it here," said Rizzo, who made his big league debut with San Diego in 2011. "But it's nice not having to take batting practice here every day."Rizzo hit just .141 with one homer and nine RBIs in two stints with the Padres in 2011 before being traded to the Cubs in the deal that sent right-hander Andrew Cashner to San Diego.Rizzo is hitting .275 this season."That ball went to the beach," said Cubs first-year manager Rick Renteria, who spent the past six seasons on San Diego's coaching staff.Stults said Rizzo homered on a fastball down the middle."If I execute the pitch down and away, the worse thing is he probably hits a single," Stults said. "But it was 3-1, nobody out, and I didn't want to put him on base."Rizzo also had a double."He had some good at-bats," Renteria said. "His approach is pretty solid."Arrieta (1-0) held San Diego to one run and four hits, struck out seven and walked one. He was activated May 3 after beginning the season on the disabled list with tightness in his right shoulder. He lowered his ERA to 2.33. Carlos Villanueva pitched the final three innings for his first save this season."Jake did a nice job," Renteria said. "He pushed himself through six and allowed us to get to Villa and he did the rest."San Diego lost its fourth straight game. It was the 15th time in 48 games the Padres scored one or no runs. The Padres were shut out for the eighth time -- most in the majors -- on Wednesday night, losing 2-0 to Minnesota.Padres bench coach Dave Roberts filled in for manager Bud Black, who was at his daughter's college graduation."It was good to see Rick on the other side," Roberts said. "He seemed in good spirits. Just a year ago, we were together. We shared the same locker room. But at 7:10 we were ready to win a baseball game."Junior Lake was aboard on a bunt single down the third-base line, the Cubs' first hit of the night off Stults.The Cubs chased Stults in the fifth with three runs and four hits. Nate Schierholtz hit a leadoff double and scored on Darwin Barney's single to center. Arrieta sacrificed Barney, who scored on Emilio Bonifacio's single to right. Lake doubled over center fielder Cameron Maybin's head to bring in Bonifacio.San Diego's only run came on Seth Smith's two-out homer to right in the first, his team-leading sixth.Stults (2-5) gave up five runs and six hits in 4 2/3 innings, struck out four and walked none.The Padres wore replica uniforms from 1984, when they beat the Cubs in the NL championship series to reach the World Series for the first time.Game notes
The four-game series continues Friday night when Cubs RHP Edwin Jackson (3-3, 3.98) faces Padres RHP Tim Stauffer (1-0, 2.41), who will be making his first start of the season. ... Padres LHP Robbie Erlin, who had been scheduled to start Friday night, went on the 15-day disabled list with a sore left elbow, retroactive to Sunday. He is 3-4 with a 4.53 ERA in nine appearances, including eight starts. To take his spot on the roster, the Padres selected RHP Blaine Boyer from Triple-A El Paso.

Verizon says LTE phones incompatible with other carriers
Verizon Wireless confirmed on Thursday that 4G LTE phones it sells will be incompatible with rival networks in the U.S. because of spectrum differences.Sascha Segan of PC Mag reports that, according to Verizon spokeswoman Brenda Raney, the carrier's Long-Term Evolution handsets will not "be compatible on other LTE networks in the U.S." because "the phones will be on different frequencies."
Verizon's 4G network operates mostly in the 746-787MHz range, compared to AT&T's 704-746MHz. Segan notes that a small portion of Verizon and AT&T spectrum overlaps in an area called the "lower B block," while adding that Verizon and AT&T could easily build their phones to exclude each other's frequencies.
Meanwhile, MetroPCS uses the 1700-MHz band for its LTE network. AT&T has indicated plans to use the same band, and Verizon owns spectrum in the same frequency, but it's unclear to what extent the exact frequencies for each carrier would overlap.
Verizon and AT&T already face incompatibility with their 2G and 3G networks. In order to launch the iPhone 4 on Verizon, Apple had to reengineer the device to work on a CDMA network.
During a recent event, several AT&T executives were unable to answer whether the carrier's upcoming LTE devices would be able to roam onto Verizon's network, Segan said. AT&T plans to bring LTE to 15 markets by the end of 2011, a full year behind Verizon. The company has accelerated its plans and hopes for its 4G network to be "largely complete" by the end of 2013.
Verizon launched its LTE network late last year, touting real-world data rates of between 5 and 12 megabits per second downstream, and 2 to 5 Mbps up.
Overseas, spectrum incompatibility gets even worse. According to the report, the International Telecommunication Union has approved a number of different bands for LTE, including "700, 800, 850, 900, 1500, 1700, 1800, 1900, 2000, 2100, 2300, and 2600MHz."
Seegan does, however, go on to note that it is "physically possible to build phones that cover both Verizon's and AT&T's frequencies" and the matter may come down to a "business arrangement." Given Apple's partnerships with the two companies, the company could negotiate dual-mode LTE capability ahead of an LTE iPhone launch.
However, Apple is reportedly not ready to release an LTE iPhone this year and is expected to delay the device until at least next year. Apple may have an edge over rival handset makers after having purchased critical LTE-related patents from Canadian telecom equipment maker Nortel.
Verizon executives are confident that Apple is indeed hard at work on an LTE-capable phone. "You'll see more coming from Apple on LTE," CEO Dan Mead said earlier this year. "They understand the value proposition of LTE and I feel very confident that they are going to be a part of it."

Grupo Aeroportuario Del Pacífico Update
Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V., (NYSE: PAC; BMV: GAP) (the "Company" or "GAP") announced that in accordance with the Company's legal strategy to defend its By-Laws, on March 13, 2012, one of its subsidiaries obtained a preliminary injunction from a federal court of last resort preventing the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores (National Banking and Securities Commission or the "CNBV") from making a determination with respect to the Oferta Pública de Adquisición Forzosa (Hostile Takeover bid by Tender Offer or the "Tender Offer") by Grupo México, S.A.B. de C.V. ("Grupo México"). In granting the preliminary injunction the federal court indicated that it was doing so because the Tender Offer involved a strategic sector, i.e., the airport industry.
Based on the aforementioned, and as instructed by the Federal Collegiate Circuit Court that authorized the foregoing preliminary injunction, the CNBV cannot issue a decision on whether or not to authorize the Tender Offer initiated by Grupo México until this protection proceeding is resolved.
This judicial decision reaffirms the position that GAP has maintained throughout the different protective actions it has taken aimed at defending the integrity of the Company's corporate structure, including the limits placed on shareholder ownership and participation in the Mexican Airport System, which was designed by the Mexican Federal Government in accordance with the guidelines set out in the "Investment Guidelines for the Opening of Investment in the Mexican Airport System."
Company Description:
Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V. (GAP) operates twelve airports throughout Mexico's Pacific region, including the major cities of Guadalajara and Tijuana, the four tourist destinations of Puerto Vallarta, Los Cabos, La Paz and Manzanillo, and six mid-sized cities: Hermosillo, Guanajuato, Morelia, Aguascalientes, Mexicali and Los Mochis. In February 2006, GAP's shares were listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "PAC" and on the Mexican Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "GAP".

Custom NAZA GPS Protection with Mast
Protect your DJI NAZ GPS. I have personally lost one GPS to a roll over crash. This device is designed to break off in hard crashes that hit the gps gaurd. It has one stainless steel bolt that hold the pieces together. You can mount it with one stainless steel bolt from underneath.
The device also is designed to manually rotate to allow for magnetic declination adjustments In the case of a rollover crash the device hits on the guarded area around the GPS compass and if the crash is hard enough the guard snaps off of the stand for protection. The bottom of the guard is 5mm thick abs plastic the sides are solid ABS plastic. I can make these in black or white 2 inches tall from top to bottom $10 shipped in USA ( I am shipping over seas but the shipping has to be paid by the purchaser $5 shipped for replacement parts in the USA (ie the guard has been snapped off from crashing) Because I make them with my 3D printer I can also make them different lengths if needed Paypal email@example.com Patent Pending |

Past performance is not indicative of future returns
Jack describes some of his major findings, including what he calls the Tyranny of Past Returns, where Investors usually look at and pick the best performing strategies, often to their detriment. Picking the best performing strategies and sectors from the past is exactly the wrong thing to do, according to Jack, as their returns are consistently below the average strategy, and even more shocking, the worst performing strategies from the past often do better than the best performing. In addition, learn about some of Jacks insights from his latest work:Return alone is a meaningless measure when picking managers any manager can double their exposureAllocators have a stubborn checkbox mentality when it comes to leverageBut all leverage is not the same Using leverage to hedge can reduce risk and exposureHow risk is hidden in track record where episodic risk is not presentBeware the lack of insufficient and irrelevant dataPast data can even be an inverse indicatorHistorical models of mortgage defaultsLook at the current +30 year boom bond marketWhy normal price distribution is convenient, but market history proves implausibleJack D.

Bell Systems Technical Journals Published
Paw Prints: Writings of the maddog
My friend Benjamin Scott send some email around today stating that Alcatel/Lucent had published all the old Bell System Technical Journals from 1922 to 1983 online and freely accessible. As Ben said:
Bell Labs practically invented much of our recent civilization (communications theory, transistor, laser, microchip, Unix, the list goes on). The public switched telephone network, before the Internet came along, was probably the most complicated system in human existence. They documented a lot of it in these journals. Making them available like this is a huge boon to technology historians.
My favorite Bell System Technical Journal (BSTJ, for short) was Volume 57.6, published in August of 1978. In it were a series of articles from the people who developed the first UNIX systems. Not only were these articles written "first hand" at a time when people could both formulate clearly the reasons why they created UNIX the way they did, but at the same time it was not so long after they had created the system to have forgotten some of the details.
A small example of this exists in the name UNIX itself. Most people today write "UNIX" as "Unix", but in these original typeset and scanned PDFs, you can see that the developers consistently spelled it "UNIX", with all capital letters.
Other gems that are available from these documents include a specification of an early PDP-11/70 computer where Ken Thompson programmed Unix, stating that Ken's system had 768K bytes of core memory, acknowledging that this system was very generously configured, that as a minimal system you could have as little as 90K bytes of core and (as Dennis Ritchie points out) be purchased for as little as 40 thousand dollars (in 1978) of hardware investment. Ken's "very generously configured machine" also had two 200 Mbyte disk drives, 20 dial-up modem lines and 12 hard-wired serial port lines, as well as several interfaces for "machine to machine transfer", a phototypesetter, a voice synthesizer and a chess machine.
Steve Bourne writes about the original Bourne shell while Dennis Ritchie, Steve Johnson, Brian Kernighan and M.E. Lesk write about the early "C" compiler, and there are some early works about Programmer's Workbench and document preparation. There is even a discussion about the trade-offs of putting UNIX on a "microprocessor" of the day, an LSI-11 computer from Digital that only had 40K bytes of RAM.
Some of the problems they were investigating in 1978 are eerily similar to the problems (and solutions) that we have today. MERT was a real-time and (more-or-less) "virtualized" system, and the papers even address issues in using the computer to control devices.
Take a look at these articles of history, both to find out how UNIX derived and why some things remain the same, even more than thirty years later.
Carpe Diem!
Thank you for this wonderful link! I've already saved all the articles of that specific issue to my hard disk.
The download speed added to the feeling of nostalgia -- it's been a long time since 20 KB/sec was the norm. -
Thanks for pointing us to these. I actually just purchased an original 1978 copy of Volume 57, Number. 6, Part 2, a.k.a "The UNIX Issue". Fascinating stuff to read the history of our favorite OS.

A painter working on a railroad drawbridge over the Passaic River in Newark was electrocuted yesterday after falling from his perch and becoming entangled in high-voltage wires used to power New Jersey Transit trains between Hoboken and Newark.
The 34-year-old man, whose identity was withheld until his family could be notified, had been working 70 feet above ground on the bridge when he fell around 1:23 P.M. It was not known what caused him to fall, said Penny Bassett Hackett, a spokeswoman for New Jersey Transit.
It took rescuers using a crane until 6:48 P.M. to get the body down from the wires, Ms. Bassett Hackett said. The railroad cut electrical power on the line, suspending train service between Newark's Broad Street Station and the Hoboken Terminal for nearly six hours. Service was restored at 7:24 P.M., Ms. Bassett Hackett said.
The painter, a Brooklyn resident, was working for Keystone Construction, Ms. Bassett Hackett said, but she did not know where the company was based.

Opinion'Chavez is still a model for Obama': Interview with Santiago Zabala Silvia Mazzini talks to philosopher Santiago Zabala about 'hermeneutic communism' and Chavez as a model for Obama. 11 Nov 2012 12:52 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, Latin America, Afghanistan, Pakistan If Obama hopes to make any real "change", then he should look toward emulating in part Chavez's reforms [REUTERS]About the Author Silvia Mazzini Silvia Mazzini is a lecturer at the Humboldt University and a guest fellow at the Institute for Cultural Inquiry in Berlin. Story highlightsSlavoj ?i?ek praised your Hermeneutic Communism (written with Gianni Vattimo) as "a book that everyone who thinks about radical politics needs like the air he or she breathes!" The book concluded suggesting that the Venezuelan president was a model for the American president. Do you think the fact that both were reelected is a confirmation of that thesis?No, I do not think so since both were reelected for very different reasons. If "change" was Obama's catchword, it has come first in Venezuela and other Latin American countries. Let's take Obama healthcare reform. It's nothing compared to what Chavez has managed to do: offering free health care to millions of people for the first time, cutting extreme poverty by 70 per cent, and quadrupling public pensionsWhat does Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, the Occupy movement and the Arab Spring all have in common? According to Santiago Zabala, professor of philosophy at the University of Barcelona, they're all hermeneutic "alterations" that have been "healthy" to democratic societies. Humboldt University lecturer Silvia Mazzini, in a question-and-answer, discussed "hermeneutic communism" with Zabala, and how re-elected Chavez should be a model for re-elected US President Barack Obama. Silvia Mazzini: Slavoj Zizek praised your Hermeneutic Communism (written with Gianni Vattimo) as "a book that everyone who thinks about radical politics needs like the air he or she breathes!" The book concluded suggesting that the Venezuelan president was a model for the American president. Do you think the fact that both were reelected is a confirmation of that thesis?Santiago Zabala: No, I do not think so since both were reelected for very different reasons. If "change" was Obama's catchword, it has come first in Venezuela and other Latin American countries. Let's take Obama healthcare reform. It's nothing compared to what Chavez has managed to do: Offering free health care to millions of people for the first time, cutting extreme poverty by 70 percent, and quadrupling public pensions among many other things. As for foreign policy, there is no question that Obama has been much more violent, considering the ongoing wars in Afghanistan and Pakistan and, of course, the prisoners in Guantanamo. Although Obama is certainly a decent man, we are still waiting for his "change"; on the other hand, Chavez has not only delivered it but also imposed it when necessary. Either way, that thesis should be read within the philosophical context of the book.SM: You mean Chavez's "hermeneutic communism" as opposed to Obama's "conservative neoliberalism"?SZ: Yes, the basic idea is that the United States, the EU, and other Western democracies are "framed", that is, politically neutralised. One of Obama's greatest mistakes has been to call for bipartisanship when he had the majority in the senate during his first two years in office and so could have done as he pleased. Instead, Chavez has used his majority not only to leave the IMF but also to nationalise most of the country's national resources in order to fund social programmes that have led to, among many other things, the eradication of illiteracy and the creation of medical clinics throughout the nation. If we look at the differences between Obama and Romney, they were not as marked as the ones between Chavez and Capriles. It's true we just experienced the US presidential election, but it is clear that not enough would have been done differently under a republican administration to justify Obama's call for change.SM: Let's take a closer look at Chavez; he does not call himself a "communist", much less a "hermeneutic" communist. How will Chavez's victory impact the world? SZ: Not yet! It's true; he uses the term "socialism for the twenty-first century" or "Bolivarian revolution". Communism, as you know, has become very popular with contemporary philosophers (Terry Eagleton, Slavoj Zizek, Jodi Dean) after Francis Fukuyama declared the "end of history" as the "neoliberal victory". But as the Arab Spring and the ongoing financial crisis demonstrated, history is far from concluded, and capitalism is struggling for survival. But in this condition communism does not return as a repetition but rather as a possibility for emancipation from the neoliberal frame we are in. While China is still proceeding within the ancient and authoritarian Soviet parameters, in Venezuela not only has the democratic electoral procedures been respected but also the state bureaucratic system has been decentralised through social missions for community projects, called "missiones".SM: Like the word "communism", also "hermeneutics" can be interpreted in different ways. What does hermeneutic in your book mean?SZ: Hermeneutics refers to the philosophy of interpretation that runs proximally from Aristotle to Richard Rorty. Although Plato in the Ion presented hermeneutics as a theory of reception and practice for transmitting the messages of the gods of Olympus, it soon acquired a broader philosophical significance, pointing out the alteration of meanings, that is, their possibility for being interpreted differently. We use hermeneutics as a way to indicate this flexibility in communism. This is why the motto of the book (rephrasing Marx's famous statement from Theses on Feuerbach) is that "the philosophers have only described the world in various ways; the moment now has arrived to interpret it". Both hermeneutics, which favours interpretation over truth, and communism, which strives for state control of national resources, are alterations within our established intellectual institutions. SM: So hermeneutic communism is not primarily a theory of interpretation, but rather a call for alterations?SZ: Yes, alterations such as Chavez, the Arab Spring, or the Occupy movement, which have all shaken our so-called international diplomacy and national democratic communities. As we know, all these alterations have been healthy for the development of democratic societies: Chavez has demonstrated that leaving the IMF is profitable; the Arab Spring, that dictators were never welcomed there; and Occupy, how we are not all pleased in the rich democratic countries. When Martin Heidegger, one of the architects of hermeneutics, pointed out decades ago how the "only emergency is the lack of emergency", he was referring to these sort of alterations: The emergency is when they don't occur. SM: But why should Chavez be a model for Obama? After all, the changes the Venezuelan president brought about are not all suitable in the United States. SZ: Let's be clear: Obama is much better than Bush or Romney, but he presented himself as an agent of change that we have not seen either internationality or nationally. While there are many issues I could mention, from appointing the same people who created the economic crisis or indiscriminately using drones in the Middle East, there is one issue that binds all three of them together: Slums. Slum population is growing by a 25 million people a year and is becoming a major social and security issue for every nation. Some ministries of defence even see it as the battlefield for the twenty-first century wars. While Chavez has channelled massive state resources to offer houses to these populations, in the United States the slum population is growing at an alarming rate. SM: So you believe Obama should turned toward these slums?SZ: Yes, but we focus on slums not only because they are increasing everywhere but also for philosophical reasons. In our book we refer to slums as one "discharge of capitalism", and other, philosophical, discharges are those positions (deconstructionism, critical theory, hermeneutics) considered marginal and unnecessary because they do not submit to metaphysical or scientific realism. But if these positions do not submit to scientific realism (which, as Herbert Marcuse warned us long ago, prepare the "way for racist ideology"), it's not for theoretical reasons but rather for ethical justifications, for their interest in the weak, the marginal, and the losers of history. So, Chavez, the Arab Spring, and Occupy are really at the margins of the so-called proper functioning of finance, politics, and society because they enact alterations or, better, non-authorised changes. "I think the media portray him in a negative way to make sure no one sees his policies as a model or example to follow. " -Santiago Zabala SM: Do you think it is useful to compare a regional power, Venezuela, with the USA, a global player?SZ: Well, sure, Chavez, just as Obama for the West, does not represent simply his country, but the leader of all the Latin American countries that have joined forces (through UNASUR, ALBA, and MERCOSUR) to emancipate from IMF and the Washington consensus in general. Let's remember South America is expected to grow by 10.1 percent in 2013, more than any other region in the world.SM: What would you answer to those who see Chavez as an undemocratic or populist politician?SZ: I think the media portray him in a negative way to make sure no one sees his policies as a model or example to follow. We thought of this when we began to notice how many intellectuals, such as Thomas L Friedman, Moisés Nairn, and Francis Fukuyama, portray him as despotic. It must be said that thanks to economist such as Mark Weisbrot, journalists as Richard Gott, and filmmakers as Oliver Stone, who devote much of their work to denouncing disinformation, he is getting some recognition now.SM: You seem to be - together with Tariq Ali and Noam Chomsky - in love with the Venezuelan president.SZ: I think "love" is too much. The point is that Obama now has another four years to make changes, and whether we like it or not, Chavez is still a model for him. Dr Silvia Mazzini is a lecturer at the Humboldt University and a guest fellow at the Institute for Cultural Inquiry in Berlin. She is the author of Für eine mannigfaltige mögliche Welt. Kunst und Politik bei Ernst Bloch und Gianni Vattimo (Frankfurt am Main: Lang, 2010), and of numerous articles on aesthetics, political philosophy and social space. Santiago Zabala is ICREA Research Professor of Philosophy at the University of Barcelona. His books include The Hermeneutic Nature of Analytic Philosophy (2008), The Remains of Being (2009) and most recently, Hermeneutic Communism (2011, co-authored with G Vattimo), all published by Columbia University Press.Source: Al Jazeera

What is unacceptable is not calling the clients to inform them of this. I sat until 9 at night before texting to see what was going on only to be told they were closed due to weather. No apology for not calling or anything. Canceled my order and won't use them again since my time means nothing to them.
I am one satisfied customer! amazing product! quick, texts right back and reliable! would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for great product at mid shelf pricing. that God Bud. EPIC
For the best bud service pick this guy. Super fast service right to your front door and only the greatest buds delivery to you.I look around and W.O.W is the best in town. Try them first and see what I am talking about. Thanks W.o.W for your service
Thanks so much for the hook up. Super fast delivery within 15 mins. from putting in my order in. First time buyer but not my last.For the best buds delivery to you try these guys you will not be disspointed
BEST OF THE BEST. I don't go anywhere else. Goodness Ganja is the only company I will deal with, I have been burned many times but this business has never let me down. Be careful of 5240 they will rip you off and sell mediocre product. I have never found anything decent on craigslist. GIVE THIS BUSINESS A TRY, YOU WILL BE HAPPY AND SATISFIED WITH THE SERVICE AND THE PRODUCT.
Real fast and real friendly. Good bud I've been smoking 20 years.
I was there last month and Im coming back next week. Cant wait to call these guys when we get back to Denver
Very professional. They have the best of the best. Their edibles are appetizing as well as very effective. Fast and reliable. Best products and service in Denver. I have tried them all and all others are substandard. Bringing the dog Kush, along for the delivery was just a bonus...
We had them bring to us twice and everything was Absolutely amazing. Great service, great product. When we come back we are callkng them for sure
Got a great deal on their Vape special, very pleased!
quality bud at decent prices, no real complaints. Give them a shot if your in the area
I got an ounce when I came threw, 1/2 of urkle and a 1/2 of platinum bubba the Urkle was really good and for $135 an ounce, and 5 miles up the road this place will definitely keep me coming back, the only thing I wish they had some wax or shatter but they did say, coming soon.

Comments, questions and tips
It took 35 min for my chicken breasts to be cooked and even then they were quite soft. There is no way that 4 breasts will cook after 15 min under all that sauce, so be very careful.
But my main issue is that the Rosemary is NOT NICE. If you are going to make this, use another herb (Thyme?) and add a bit of chilli to bring it alive.
Think B-ene-lin below may be correct. The calories look pretty low. To be fair, its never an exact science believe it or not. Calories are almost always presented as 100% fact but rarely are (we are as guilty of this as anyone).
We just wrote a blog on the superfood that is chicken - http://www.totaldietfood.com/news/320/27/The-Total-Diet-Food-Super-Food-...
Not sure about the calorie count stated for this one. 171 calories would just about cover a approx 100g chicken breast, although admittedly the calorific values differ depending on where you look. However, taking the value on the packet of fresh Tesco chicken I had, 170 was the count for the chicken alone, then you have to add the olive oil, tomatoes etc. I calculated it to be around 212 calories.

Description: Hou Hsiao-hsien (Goodbye South, Goodbye) directed this Taiwanese-Japanese period drama set in the British section brothels of 19th-century Shanghai. Chu Tien-wen's screenplay was adapted from Han Ziyun's 1894 novel Haishang Huia Liezhuang (Biographies of Flowers of Shanghai), translated from the original dialect to Mandarin during the '30s by Shanghai writer Eileen Chang. Around 1884, during the closing years of Imperial China, Crimson (Japanese actress Michiko Hada) worries that she's about to be dropped by civil servant Wang (Tony Leung Chiu-wai), since he's spending so much time with Jasmin (Wei Hsiao-hui). Emotions escalate when word arrives that Wang will relocate to another post in the Canton province. Shown in competition at the 1998 Cannes Film Festival.~ Bhob Stewart, All Movie Guide

Measurement of oxygen saturation in the retina with a spectroscopic sensitive multi aperture camera
Optics Express, Vol. 16, Issue 9, pp. 6170-6182 (2008)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (804 KB)
We introduce a new multi aperture system capable of capturing six identical images of the human fundus at six different spectral bands. The system is based on a lenslet array architecture and is well suited for spectroscopy application. The multi-aperture system was interfaced with a fundus camera to acquire spectroscopic sensitive images of the retina vessel and ultimately to calculate oxygen saturation in the retina in vivo. In vitro testing showed that the system is able to accurately reconstruct curves of partially oxygenated hemoglobin. In vivo testing on healthy volunteers was conducted and yielded results of oxygen saturation similar to the one reported in the literature, with arterial SO2~0.95 and venous SO2~0.5.

A LIST of HSBC offshore account holders passed to the taxman is under investigation for potential tax evasion and money laundering.
About 4,000 British residents, ranging from taxi drivers and green grocers to celebrities, appear on the list, which was leaked by an HSBC whistleblower.
Further reading
HM Revenue & Customs said it had "received the data" and is "studying it".
It added: "Clamping down on those who try to cheat the system through evading taxes and over-claiming benefits is a top priority for us and we value the information we receive from the public and business community."
Penalties for offshore tax evasion can be as much as 200% of the tax owed, while criminal prosecution is also a possibility.
Watt Busfield tax investigations partner Rebecca Busfield said: "There have been various amnesties for professions including doctors, dentists, plumbers and private tutors. For anyone part of these professions ... voluntary disclosures would be advisable as prosecutions could follow."
For its part, HSBC said it was "investigating the reports of an alleged loss of certain client data in Jersey as a matter of urgency".
"We have not been notified of any investigation in relation to this matter by HMRC or any other authority but should we receive notification, we will co-operate fully with the authorities," it said.
Known criminals who hold accounts with the bank's Jersey operation are among the names leaked to the taxman, The Telegraph reports.
Those criminals are said to include a well-known drug dealer now living in Venezuela, a man convicted after he kept more than 300 weapons in his Devon house and three bankers facing major fraud allegations.

SHEPHERDSVILLE - Phil Moffett has a huge task. But it is an important one for the future of the state.
Moffett, a Louisville businessman, has filed as a Republican candidate for the office of governor, a race to be contested in 2011.
He made an appearance recently at the Voices of Democracy meeting.
"I'm not a politician," Moffett told a crowd of about two dozen people. "I'm just really sick and tired of being sick and tired."
SHEPHERDSVILLE -- After losing much of his hearing to a massive stroke in 1988 and surviving another one four years later, Mycle Brandy suffered a third stroke in 1997 that rendered his right side paralyzed, confining him to a wheel chair.
To many, it seemed the 46 -year-old might never fully recover, but Brandy was determined to walk again.
"It was a hard one to overcome," Brandy said. "But I'm pretty stubborn."
MOUNT WASHINGTON - A man who was the last charter member of the Bullitt County Joint Planning Commission to retire several years ago, died on Friday, Sept. 10.
Edward W. Snider, 90, of eastern Bullitt County, passed away on Friday.
He was a farmer, a retired employee of General Electric and a World War II Marine Corp veteran.
He was a former chaplain for the VFW Post 5710 in Shepherdsville and a former member of the 4-H and FFA councils and a member of Kings Baptist Church.
HILLVIEW - Bullitt County may have a new hidden treasure within its boundaries.
The new and improved Comfort Inn officially opened featuring the Pirates Bay Indoor Water Park.
Local officials gathered along with Comfort Inn owners for an official ribbon cutting celebration to introduce the water park and hotel updates to the public.
The 10,000 square foot water park is open 365 days a year. General manager Angel Frizzell said the park was open to the public and accessible without purchasing a hotel room.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - With the agreement in place for the Bullitt County YMCA to manage the sports programs currently offered by the county's parks and recreation, work has already begun on the transition.
The Bullitt County Parks Board chairman Steve Larimore said he was very pleased that interim parks director Ed Etherton had already met with YMCA executive director June Daugherty just a day after fiscal court approved the management agreement.
LEBANON JUNCTION - A man who allegedly wrote a note and left it in the welcome center on Interstate 65 has been arrested.
Thomas M. Napper, 37, was arrested on Wednesday afternoon and charged with false reporting of an incident, a misdemeanor.
Scotty McGaha, a detective with the Bullitt County Sheriff's Department, said the note was left on March 6, 2010, at the rest area. It said that he abducted children from Indiana.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - For the past 11 years of his serving as magistrate, Eddie Bleemel said he was able to not increase property tax rates for Bullitt County.
His final year of office would be no different.
In a matter of seconds, Bullitt Fiscal Court members voted unanimously to adopt the same real property tax rate as in 2009.
The resolution also keeps the tax rates for other categories the same.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - Bullitt Central head coach Danny Leasor looked directly at his football team early this week and told them that Atherton is a better team than the one his team decimated 64-6 a year ago.
The coach then made eye contact and said that there was no chance of his team losing to the Rebels this Friday when Atherton visits for a non-district contest.
In the "education industry," we have begun to hear a great deal about preparing students for the future and equipping every student with 21st Century Skills.
There has long been a great debate among educational philosophers about exactly what to teach, and how it should be taught.
The school year is upon us. Whether your child or grandchild is in the public or private sector, classes will be beginning in the next few weeks.
At no time in our history are we asking more of our teachers, our administrators and our students. We are also asking more of our parents and guardians.
As the country shifts from manufacturing to service to technology, our educational system has had to change. We all know that change is not easy.

0 to 1, as only 'Degree' is normalized over total TFs per species. A log linear regression
is calculated and displayed with the Pearson correlation coefficient and p-value in

Most Young People Do Care About Privacy, Reputation, Pew Says
People, especially young ones, are quite conscientious about tending to their reputation on the Web, according to a Pew Research Center report.
Some 71 percent of social networking users aged 18 to 29 have changed the privacy settings on their profile to limit what they share with others online. That compares to just 55 percent of social site users ages 50 to 64 who have changed their privacy settings.
Moreover, 44 percent of young adult Web users limit the amount of personal info available about themselves online.
The older the user is, the less likely he is to limit personal info online. Only 33 percent Web users ages 30 to 49 and 25 percent of users ages 50 to 64 limit their info. Just 20 percent of users 65 and older limit info.
The numbers come at a time when users have generated massive amounts of information online by using search engines and social networks such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter.
This includes data created from the use of Web applications, including games and communications and collaborations software.
Nearly 500 million people flock to share links, photos and videos and play games such as "Zynga's Farmville" or "Mafia Wars" on Facebook, for example.
Pew research analyst Mary Madden said many young users are refining their approach to information-sharing on the fly.
These users are frequently changing privacy settings on profiles, customizing who can see certain updates and deleting unwanted information about themselves.
"Contrary to the popular perception that younger users embrace a laissez-faire attitude about their online reputations, young adults are often more vigilant than older adults when it comes to managing their online identities," Madden wrote in her May 26 report.
Pew researchers surveyed by phone 2,253 adults in August and September of 2009. Some 57 percent of Internet users said they have used Google, Bing, Yahoo or some other search engine to look up their name and see what information was available about them online. That number is up from 47 percent of people from 2006.
Conversely, 38 percent of Internet users have searched online for information about their friends, a boost from the 2006 figure of 26 percent.
This led Pew to conclude that reputation management has now become a "defining feature" for many Web users. Others, however, don't seem to care and subscribe to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's view that the world wants to be open and share information online.
Madden's reputation management findings take on an interesting dimension in light of the fact that Facebook just changed its privacy settings again, making them easier for users to manage.
Facebook users may select to share information with friends, friends of friends or everyone and customize their settings from one page with a single click.

I just opened an issue for a similar problem. To my understanding, a better way will be to support substitutions within link, like this:`aaa |bbb| <link>`_
The substitution can be than expanded to image or whatever. The construct is trivial in HTML and can probably be fed to hyperref in latex mode (though I'm not sure of the results).
