Police say Harris left his 22-month-old son, Cooper, strapped into a car seat under a baking sun for seven hours while he went to work.

After leaving a child in a car, 'that pain...never goes away'Internet searchesAmong the tidbits police have released about the case is that Harris and his wife, Leanna, told them that they conducted Internet searches on how hot a car needed to get to kill a child. "During an interview with Justin, he stated that he recently researched, through the Internet, child deaths inside vehicles and what temperature it needs to be for that to occur," police said. "Justin stated that he was fearful that this could happen."During questioning, Leanna Harris "made similar statements regarding researching in car deaths and how it occurs," police said. The time frame for when this alleged research took place remains unclear.Wife stands by HarrisCooper, who died June 18, was buried Saturday in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.At his funeral, Leanna Harris said she loves her husband and stands by him."Am I angry with Ross?" Leanna Harris told a crowd at the funeral. "Absolutely not. It has never crossed my mind. Ross is and was and will be, if we have more children, a wonderful father. Ross is a wonderful daddy and leader for our household. Cooper meant the world to him."Harris calls inThough Harris wasn't allowed out of the Cobb County Jail to attend the funeral, he called in and spoke to the entire auditorium on speakerphone."Thank you for everything you've done for my boy," he said. "Good life. (Inaudible) No words to say. Just horrible. (Inaudible) I'm just sorry I can't be there." "He told everyone he loved them and started crying again.Carol Brown, a longtime family friend, was one of those in attendance."I mean he could have gone to the car and not seen the little boy, if the boy was sleeping, or you know ... it could happen," she said. "He could have been distracted. But I do have questions about it."Timeline of eventsInitially, police described the death of the toddler as the result of tragic absent-mindedness.They said the dad had apparently forgotten the boy was in the back seat of his Hyundai Tucson; he didn't remember until he was done with his workday, drove a couple of miles and pulled into a shopping center parking lot.But suspicions grew as police investigated.On the day Cooper died, his father stopped for breakfast at a fast-food restaurant and afterward strapped his son into a rear-facing child restraint seat on his SUV's back seat, police said. He drove to his workplace, a Home Depot corporate office, about a half-mile away. He works as a Web designer there.Usually, he would take his son to an on-site day care. But that day, police said, Harris left him in the car seat. During his lunch break, he returned to his car, opening the driver's side door to put something inside, police said. After work, around 4:16 p.m., the 33-year-old father got in his car and drove away. A few miles away, he stopped the car at a shopping center and called for help.When it became clear Cooper was dead, Harris was so inconsolable police had to restrain him. "What have I done?" he wailed as he tried to resuscitate the boy. The Cobb County medical examiner's office found the child's cause of death "consistent with hyperthermia and the investigative information suggests the manner of death is homicide," according to a Cobb County Department of Public Safety statement issued last week. Temperatures hit 92 degrees Fahrenheit on the day of Cooper's death.The medical examiner's office is waiting for toxicology test results before making an official ruling as to the cause and manner of the toddler's death.

Occupy Wall Street movement intrigues, confounds the tea party
Even as analysts note similarities between the two populist uprisings, many tea party activists say a merger could never happen. Many are put off by Occupy Wall Street's civil disobedience and economic prescriptions.
Shannon Stapleton/Reuters
When Joanne Wilder's compatriots from Central New York Patriots wanted to decamp for New York City to help "educate" Occupy Wall Street protesters, the local tea party organizer balked.
"We stay away from this," she told her friends.
That sentiment illustrates the arm's length approach that many tea partyers are taking toward a new social movement that is starting to threaten the tea party's preeminence on the political stage.
Some commentators are drawing parallels between the two populist uprisings – opposition to government bailouts of corporations is one prominent example – and some have even suggested a big-tent merger that could yield policy to alleviate the economic dissatisfaction, political powerlessness, and middle-class angst that drives both movements.
"We've ... got a conservative populist movement and a progressive populist movement happening at the same time," Rory McVeigh, director of the Center for the Study of Social Movements at the University of Notre Dame, tells San Jose Mercury News columnist Chris O'Brien. "There's a sense on both sides that it's us against that unnamed force out there running the world."

I bought this on a whim, just because when I was getting matched for Color IQ at Sephora, the woman used this under my foundation and I sort of fell in love with it on the spot. Although I'm not a huge fan of the consistency, I love what this stuff does, I have normal skin and putting it on before I apply my liquid foundation is a must, it leaves my skin feeling dewy and smooth. I wouldn't recommend this for oily skin because it can be a bit greasy, but other than that its definitely a product I will repurchase and it's worth the money.

I never knew what it was like to have makeup "slide off" my face. I have oily/combo skin but I can't really say I have ever had a case of the oilys that bad. Interestingly enough, a few hours after using this primer before I applied my MAC F&B...OH MY LANTA I couldn't believe what was going on. Pores exaggerated and foundation patchy probably from separating on my face. Actually looked like it was going to melt off my face! Real sexy!
So I will say the product does not claim it will mattify. But no where on the product description does it say it's for creating a dewy look (aka an "oil slick" to girls that battle excess oil).
Thankfully I only had to use it once to know it would never go on my face again. No breakouts have appeared and because I received this as a sample I didn't loose anything.
Just want to caution girls with oily skin. If your still thinking about trying this primer, get a sample and wear for a day!

Does what it says: smooths my makeup. Suprisingly it reduces the redness in my face, not much but a tad. Doesn't help my makeup stay at all, long school days without replying and with normal to oily skin, i need a great primer. This was't it. Won't repurchase.

I got a free sample of this recently. and i also used it about 6 years ago when primers became popular. This time around it felt just as nice and made my skin so smooth for makeup however a couple days later my usually clear skin broke out into cystic acne. 3 very hard under the skin pimples the kind that never pops, feel/ look more like bug bites and takes weeks to go away. I have had almost identical bouts of breakouts with other face products so maybe its the silicone or another ingredient but my skin doesn't like it.

This is such a great primer. I've used moisturizer only before with liquid foundation and I have so so so many acne scars and I use the Revlon Colorstay and I found myself having to use 2 layers on that PLUS concealer and you would still be able to see my scars I was so self conscious. But, after using the Sephora base it was unbelievable I am so happy with this product because I only need one coat of my foundation and no more feeling heavy on my face! I suggest this to anyone and you only need a half a pump; it's plenty.
Good luck!

The price for the size of this primer is a bit off-putting, but nonetheless, I really like this primer. It does smooth out my skin and makes my pores look smaller! Anything that helps my pores look less noticible is great in my book :)

When I first used this product, I was amazed by the results! It made my skin so smooth after applying that I didn't have any trouble putting on my foundation. It didn't make my face cakey and It also helped to eliminate my redness from my blemishes and smoothens the texture on my face due to my pitted scars. Sephora in my area was closing down so I grabbed a few more bottles! It's one of the best primers I've used. I have smashbox's and Make up forever's primers but I would still choose Sephora's make up primer.
I just hate the fact that it's so small and pricey!

Dr. Christopher Yach, West Flamingo Animal Hospital
Dr. Sheila Bilingsley, West Flamingo Animal Hospital
All those heat and air quality advisories apply to Spot and Whiskers as well, particularly doggies of a certain type. "Your smooshed-faced dogs have more breathing issues anyway," says Dr. Shelia Billingsley. "Cats tend to be more prone to asthma, so even though they tend to be more indoors, we tend to see more asthmatic cats. The air quality affects us all."
Drs. Christopher Yach and Sheila Billingsley have more suggestions for making sure your pets make it through the Las Vegas sweltering summer:
Signs of Sensitivity to Pollution
"Pets may have increased respiratory rates or are coughing or sneezing a little," says Yach. "But usually it's a coughing."
Yach also says to watch for eye irritation. "Eye matter, red eyes -- particularly concerning is if the eyes are closed a little bit or if they're rubbing their eyes, or if there is a green or yellow discharge," you need to see a vet, says Yach.
Beat The Heat
Walks should be shorter when temperatures are this warm. "One thing that really helps my boxer when we go out is I have a cool coat for him, where it's one of those evaporative cooling jackets," says Billingsley.
Yach says to be particularly careful leaving animals outside in these temperatures. "Just because they have shade, doesn't mean they're cool under that shade." Also, he says water dishes can tip over or overheat – and pets won't drink hot water.
Signs of Heat Stroke
Watch for excessive panting, and other clues like high respiratory rate. "Especially if they're in a stupor or if they're acting clumsy or kind of drunk, it's really bad. Or if their mucus membranes are really dry," says Yach.
Keep Them Svelt
Because it's difficult to give dogs a lot of exercise under these conditions, alternative measures to maintain a dog's healthy weight are especially important. "It's so much about just decreasing consumption," says Billingsley.

Add a Comment"Carrie" is a dark horror novel by Stephen King. It follows the life of high school senior Carrietta "Carrie" White, who lives in the small town of Chamberlain, Maine. Carrie lives with her extremely religious and abusive mother. To make matters worse her classmates at school are not fans of hers and tend to subject her to bullying. After getting her first period after gym class, Carrie is taunted by her peers for not understanding what is happening or knowing what to do. The event sets the tone of the novel. Later, as the novel progresses, Carrie discovers she is telekinetic (she can move objects with her mind) and gains a possible friend, Sue. However, everything goes downhill at the school prom, where another girl, bitter about receiving detention for taunting Carrie, pulls a prank that ends with a town-wide disaster.
"Carrie" is an interesting read but it contains many long unnecessary segments that do nothing for the story and simply increase the length of the novel. Other than these parts, the book is entertaining and creative. The characters are all believable, and are all unique. Readers will find that they sympathize with Carrie, and will spend the novel rooting for her and hoping that she ends up happy. The setting of the story carries the plot, adding to it opposed to taking away from it, and helps the story to feel as though it is a recount of actual events.
Overall, this novel is an alright read. The author of this review recommends it, as it is a good pleasure read. "Carrie" is not a suitable essay book or for a 'book talk', as there are no real hidden meanings contained within the text. The author of this review believes the book to be suitable for ages fourteen and up, due to adult themes and horror content.
Carrie, written by Stephen King, is the story of a wary girl named Carrie White, clearly explaining the title. Carrie possesses incredible powers that remain unexplained to not only herself, but to those around her. The young girl lives alone with her heavily religious mother, Margaret White, who founded her own religious beliefs. These beliefs are what ultimately lead to Carrie being not only abused by her own mother, but also what leads her to become an outsider to her peers. Since she is deprived of the knowledge her peers know of the outside world, Carrie struggles to adjust and act as society would consider a "normal" teenaged girl.
This novel, while holding many supernatural and horror filled scenes, is also quite relatable to modern day teenage struggles. In every person's life, humans suffer through the hard and tedious task of attempting to fit in to our atmospheres, just as Carrie did. Since she was brought up in such a different way than her classmates she felt so unlike them that she could not figure out how to just be "normal." This topic, being so relatable to real world instances, enables Stephen King's work to successfully grab the attention of potential readers.
Carrie's story leaves readers with a sort of mixed emotion; one of pure terror, and one of sympathy for the heavily misunderstood and mistreated girl. We, the readers, are introduced to what to true outcome of bullying and abuse feels like on the victim, and thus we sympathize with the misread adolescent, despite her "weird" and "peculiar" behaviors in many given situations. We are able to once and for all understand the hardships Carrie had endured, and witness the true wrath of her power clash with her internal suffering.
ive seen the movie to this, its pretty fantastic. the book is pretty good too. there are actually a lot of remakes to the movie and book. about 4 each.
I've heard a lot about Stephen King, and finally decided to read some of his books. His writing style is (sometimes a bit confusing) a little odd at times, but the story was good. It wasn't as much scary as just weird, and at times a bit unsettling, which I didn't really mind. I think its a little bit over hyped, but it is worth reading.
I have watched the 70's (the original) movie adaptation of " Carrie ". There have also been other movies based on the Stephen King novel. Just going on the movie versions I've watched, there are some aspects of the " Carrie " story that have been lost in the various movie adaptations. I still liked reading the book version though. I didn't find it scary at all.
Brilliant and scary. Read this around Halloween. It's as much about horror and supernatural events as it is about bullying and retribution. In my opinion, Carrie is the victim here.
I enjoyed Carrie very much. King is a very good writer and his style is very easy to read. The ultimate story here is how high school can damage people that are different and do not "fit in." His description of how the students act toward one another is right on and my guess is he was ostracized when he was in high school and still holds scars because of his experiences.

Add color and texture to your kitchen:
In most of our kitchens the vast amount of hard surfaces is cold and uninviting. Floors, cabinetry, countertops and appliances can create a kitchen that is cold and lifeless. Greenery can bring texture into your kitchen and color. Whether you like fresh flowers, potted plants, or fresh herbs – line them up near a kitchen window for maximum light exposure. Many kitchen manufacturers make trough sinks and accessories to house a flower bud vase or a fresh bunch of herbs in your kitchen island. You will be surprised at the new kitchen trend to incorporate greenery easily and beautifully.

Twitter Is Ready for Its IPO
Ever see a parent of three listening to a single person complain about how stressful their weekend was? Usually, the single person says something like: "Oh my God, I had all this deadline stuff from work to deal with and I had to clean my apartment as well..." Usually, the parent turns and rolls his/her eyes.
My point is this: You mature as a company and as a management team when you IPO. Look at Facebook now compared to 18 months ago. Was it throwing as much at the wall then as it is now in terms of launching new services and trying to make money? No. Why? Because the investors weren't pushing it to and the new public ones are.
Was Facebook's board as good then without two women as it is now? No. Why did it change? Because investors were incensed at Mark Zuckerberg for this oversight and he bowed to this outside pressure. In my view, Facebook is a much stronger company today than it was then and I credit the "crazy" and "short-sighted" Wall Street investors for helping it. I think this outside pressure from Wall Street will be equally beneficial to Twitter.
Twitter's adoption by TV and media is remarkable. Twitter will probably never get to the size of Facebook in terms of users. However, turn on the TV and notice how every other ad now promotes a key hashtag. Notice how every show includes a hashtag next to the network logo.
For a company that was always looked down upon by Facebook investors and employees, it's amazing what Twitter has accomplished in terms of mindshare. I credit Dick Costolo (the CEO) and Adam Bain (the head of Sales) for this focus. The fact that they have become so prevalent gives them a huge opportunity to jump off and monetize across all traditional and now new Web/mobile media platforms. That story will be an integral part of how they sell Twitter on an IPO roadshow. So, assuming they go out this year, what will Twitter be worth? It's really hard to say. Based on the idea that it'll do $1 billion next year (2014), I think it'll get a minimum of 10 times those sales, which would be a $10 billion valuation. However, this being a big IPO, I expect the bankers and media to hype it up and it wouldn't surprise me to see investors value Twitter and 15, 20 or even 30 times sales, which would mean a valuation up to $30 billion.I don't think a $30 billion valuation would be sustainable for Twitter, just like a $75 billion to $100 billion valuation for Facebook wasn't sustainable in the end. So, whether it's a good investment or not will depend on how frothy the markets are at the time Twitter goes out. However, in the long term I continue to think Twitter is going to be a fabulous and extremely important player in media for years to come. Its IPO will be a new chapter in that story. At the time of publication the author had no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

Length: 12' 6" - Width: 34.00" - Starting at: $329.00 See More Details about this Kayak |
My wife and I headed out to the Columbia river near Bateman Island to test it out and we were very happy. I have since been out again near Two rivers park and this time just me and again the SE370 was great. I am looking forward to many more outings on this Kayak. Best purchase and I recommend the Sea Eagle.
The 370 is stable, easy to paddle, and great for fishing. The improvements I would like to see added to this kayak are larger skegs, a grab line that runs all the way around the kayak with attachments points to hold the rope in place and paddle holders. We loved this kayak so much we purchased a Sea Eagle 365 (same as the SE-370 just a different color) last year.
It doesn't really have all the features you need as you graduate to faster water and bigger rapids. No self-bailing, skegs aren't removable, and the material doesn't feel strong enough to handle hard hits. Mind you, I never had any problems with the hull at all, but I doubt I could say that if I'd tried serious rapids in it. Class 1-2s are no problem, but anything beyond that and I'd be a bit worried.
No high pressure floor means you really don't want to stand up, I never felt comfortable standing up even in calm conditions.
Some of the accessories are not great. The included paddles in particular are a bit sub par. I am not a fan of the materials used for the handles. It is durable, but very hard on your hands. The locking mechanism is very prone to jamming/rusting as well. Unfortunately, none of their packages offer better paddles.
This is a perfect entry level boat. I would strongly recommend it to anyone new to paddling who wanted a good, yet inexpensive kayak. It's served me very well for 2 years now. Great for couples or families too.
One limitation of this boat is how it sits a bit deeper in the water. Since the bottom of the boat protrudes downward from the side parts of the boat, and boat's floatation and stability comes a lot from the two large side tubes, then that means it takes more clearance, i.e., sits lower in the water. An example of this was paddling down the Crystal River in Northern Michigan, which is a very shallow river. Those in our two 10-foot recreational hard shells coasted over everything in that 5-mile stretch of river. But with the SE370, there may have been eight or nine times that we had to get out and walk briefly.
The rating of 7 given is somewhat of an "overall" rating. If you consider the greater sphere of kayaking, you may only give it about a 6; but if you consider the world of inflatable kayaks, you may give it a 7; and finally, if you consider how much you get for such a reasonable price, you could give it an 8.
I would definitely get the deluxe seats which cost a little more than the basic ones.
When choosing between an SE330 and an SE370, I definitely prefer the 370:
a) I like it better for solo paddling than the 330
b) while the 330 is tight with two adults, the 370's extra 16" of length helps a lot
c) you'll get a little more speed from the 370's extra length
d) the 370 uses 38 mil Polykrylar instead of the 33 mil on the 330
e) the 370 seems more stable
f) these noticeable advantages come w/ little extra weight and for only another $50.
Happy paddling!

The aims of the present study were to provide quantitative data on the impact of air pollution on the health of people living in Tehran city, the most populated city of Iran. The approach proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO) was applied using the AirQ 2.2.3 software developed by the WHO European Centre for Environment and Health, Bilthoven Division. Concentrations of ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide and particulate matter of aerodynamic diameter ≤ 10 μm (PM10) were used to assess human exposure and health impacts in terms of attributable proportion of the health outcome, annual number of excess cases of mortality for all causes, and cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. The annual average of PM10, SO2, NO2 and O3 in Tehran were 90.58, 89.16, 85 and 68.82 μg/m3, respectively. Considering short-term effects, PM10 had the highest health impact on the 8,700,000 inhabitants of Tehran city, causing an excess of total mortality of 2194 out of 47284 in a year. Sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and ozone caused about, respectively, 1458, 1050 and 819 excess cases of total mortality.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
I have to confess - I do like some cheesy or off the wall or day long movies but Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde is by far the cheesiest movie I have EVER seen. Plot Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde starts out the way I like it. Fast and to the point. No need to dilly-dally, just tell me where we're going. In the midst of planning her wedding and invitees, Elle Woods (played by Reese Witherspoon) realizes that the mother of her dog - Bruiser - should be there. When the 'mother' is tracked down, Elle Woods discovers that she is a dog used for make-up testing. After being fired for suggesting that the law firm she works for take a stand on the animal testing issue Elle decides to get a job in Washington so that she can fight animal testing. Having only 3 months to her wedding day makes this a time issue. Remember this wedding can not go on if Bruiser's mom can't make it. What would people say?! Elle's boss, Congresswoman Rudd (played by Sally Field), is 100% behind her. At first. After half of the movie has passed, Rudd does a 180 and pulls her vote. Long story short - Rudd has stock in a make-up line that does animal testing. Elle calls her sorority girls up to draw a crowd and up her chances of passing the 'Bruiser Bill'. With a little blackmail and 218 signatures, the Bruiser Bill is passed. All the test animals are set free and Bruiser is reunited with his mom. Oh happy day. Acting I can't say I am an excellent judge of acting, but I can always say if I believe it or not. Reese Witherspoon did a good job being perky and perfect. As always Sally Field is completely believable. Her part wasn't any major peice but I could see her as a congresswoman. Luke Wilson plays the groom to be in this movie. He is in probably less than 15 minutes of he entire movie and it's just as well. Even with that said, he's supposed to be getting married and I just didn't feel that at all. No chemistry whatsoever between him and Witherspoon. As for the rest - regardless of significance in the script, ho-hum... On a side note - if the skin on Jennifer Coolidge chest gets any tighter, it's gonna rip. My Thoughts It's ok. If it's on a movie channel and nothing else is on AND it's raining, THEN I might watch it. I borrowed my mom's Netflix rental and am glad I didn't spend a dime. While I knew it was going to be a lighthearted (lightheaded maybe?!) movie, I didn't realize that the movie was going to me centered on the dog (who by the way is gay?). That was stupid. Anyhow there were some funny spots that I a belly laugh out of. Most of which are one liners that come from Paulette (played by Jennifer Coolidge). I normally HATE dance numbers but there is a short one that is pretty funny (if you watch the big red headed guy). All in all I would have to say it didn't suck but it wasn't good either. Overall Save your time and money for something else. You may actually become a little more stupid for watching this movie. 95 minutes PG-13 By George, I think this is the shortest review I have ever written!

Republicans and some Libertarians will be pleased to know that registered voters currently have a strong preference for Republican candidates and the party overall. According to numerous polls, if midterm elections took place this week, the result would be the strongest gain for the GOP in over 20 years.
According to the new Pew Research Center/USA Today Poll completed in April, 2014, 47 percent of the 3100 participants stated that they would support the Republican candidate in their congressional district, compared to 43 percent who would vote for the Democrat. These latest poll results indicate that Republicans could Potentially sweep midterms this year similar to the way the Tea Party rose to dominance in 2010.
Although a four point advantage may appear at first to be insignificant, in reality it is notable, as Democrats traditionally fare better with registered voters than with those who actually make it to the polls on voting day. This is particularly true with regard to midterms, where liberals are much less inclined to vote than their conservative counterparts.
If these statistics are maintained until November, the GOP could significantly bolster its majority in the House and gain the six seats required to reclaim the Senate: many experts now predict that double-digit gains in that chamber are possible for the Republican Party.
The Republican Party's lead in the generic congressional ballot is at its highest peak in two decades. The opinions of voters on various key issues appear to be hurting the left, according to another Pew survey. They are dissatisfied with the direction of the country, the economy, and many are unhappy with the disaster known as Obamacare.
In addition, and perhaps the most disturbing news for Democrats, 43 percent of Americans prefer Republican economic policies, as opposed to 39 percent who prefer liberal policies in this arena.
In yet another survey, 65 percent of American citizens state that they want the president who is elected in 2016 to implement vastly different, rather than similar, programs and policies than the current Commander-in-Chief. Only 30 percent of Americans view Mr. Obama's policies favorably.

How can I create variables A1, A2,..., A10 in a loop?
This is an experimental question only! There is no need to answer it and please to not vote for it. This is neither my question nor my answer, but only an example for a nicer, more convenient, more usable FAQ, which is less stuffed with commercials.
See http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/57443-professional-looking-matlab-faq.
No products are associated with this question.
Please don't do this! You will find that MATLAB arrays (either numeric or cell) will let you do the same thing in a much faster, much more readable way. For example, if A1 through A10 contain scalars, use:
A = zeros(1,10); % Not necessary, just much faster for i=1:10 A(i) = % some equation end
Now refer to A(i) whenever you mean Ai. In case each Ai contains a vector or matrix, each with a different size, you want to use cell arrays, which are intended exactly for this:
for i=1:10 A{i} = 1:i; end
Note that each A{i} contains a different size matrix. And be careful to use the curly braces for the subscript!
Another way to have your cake and eat it too is to use structures instead of cell arrays. The fields of the structure can be the variable names you want. And you can index into them with dynamic field references. For example:
names = {'fred' 'sam' 'al'}; for ind = 1:length(names) s.(names{ind}) = magic(length(names{ind})); end
In this case, you end up with the variable s, a structure, containing fields specified by the strings stored in the cell array names.
Now, if you still really want to create variables with dynamically generated names, you need to use EVAL. With EVAL, you use MATLAB commands to generate the string that will perform the operation you intend. For example, eval('A=10') has the same effect as A=10, and eval(['A' 'B' '=10']) has the same effect as AB=10, only the EVAL method executes much more slowly. So in a loop, you could use:
for i=1:10 eval(sprintf('A%d = [1:i]', i)); end
Notice how much more obfuscated this is. In addition, this can cause difficult-to-troubleshoot problems in your code, particularly if you try to dynamically create a variable with the same name as a function:
function y = mysin(x) eval('sin = 5;'); y = sin(x);
Calling this function with "y = mysin(1)" will not return y = 5 (the first element of the sin variable created by EVAL) -- it will return the sine of 1, because when the function was parsed there was no variable named sin and so the usage of sin on the last line was parsed as a call to the built-in SIN function. The fact that a variable named sin existed at runtime is irrelevant; the parsetime "decision" takes precedence.
Repeat: don't create variables at runtime using EVAL unless you have a very good reason, such as someone gives you a MAT file with 2000 variables named A1428, for example. Even in that case, you can avoid EVAL:
% Assume the MAT-file example1.mat contains 2000 variables, A1 through A2000 S = load('example1.mat'); % S is now a struct array with 2000 fields, S.A1 through S.A2000. % To access A1428, use: x1 = S.A1428; % If the "index" of the variable you want to access is stored in a variable: k = 1428; x2 = S.(sprintf('A%d', k)); x3 = S.(['A', num2str(k)]);
This answer is copied and slightly modifed from matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ: How_can_I_create_variables_A1,_A2,....A10_in_a_loop
I 100% agree with Jan that creating new variables on the fly is something that should be avoided - but if you must then please consider this alternative method:
function generateVariableOnFly % lets tic/toc to compare the use of eval and assignin tic eval ( 'a = zeros(10,10);' ) toc % an alternate method is to use a % sub function which assigns vars in the caller function: tic variableCreator ( 'b', zeros(10,10) ) toc % validate that a and b both exist and are the same: isequal ( a, b ) end % Use a sub function which assigns variable in the caller function: function variableCreator ( newVar, variable ) assignin ( 'caller', newVar, variable ); end
To complete Jans example you could use this in the following way:
for ii=1:10 variableCreator ( sprintf ( 'A%i', ii ), ii ) end
That would create variables A1, A2.... A10.

UPDATE: Piper Jaffray Upgrades Informatica to Overweight; Says Worst Is Behind
Piper Jaffray raised its rating on Informatica (NASDAQ: INFA) from Neutral to Overweight while increasing its price target from $28 to $36.
Piper Jaffray noted, "After more than two years on the sidelines, we are upgrading INFA shares to Overweight and raising our price target to $36 from $28. 1) Industry contacts suggest the worst of INFA's European execution issues, which have been the central issue, are now behind the company and Europe is unlikely to hurt it again in Q4; 2) Whereas our last two CIO surveys foreshadowed tough times for INFA in 2012, our current CIO survey shows stabilized INFA spending plans for 2013; 3) Shares have declined 52% since July 2011, and now trade at a reduced multiple of 16.6x EV/2013 EPS versus 46.3x EV/2012 EPS at their peak, creating an asymmetrical risk profile whether standalone or in a takeout scenario; 4) estimates have been cut materially twice and, we believe, are largely derisked."
Informatica closed at $29.36 on Thursday.

Museo del Traje, Madrid
Great small museum
Posted on: January 9, 2011 at 3:06PM
This costume museum is one of my favorite places in the Spanish capital. The collection is lovely and extensive, plus the entrance fee is inexpensive (just a couple euros or free on Saturday afternoon and Sunday). But this is just one of many wonderful museums in Madrid.

Supportive eBay Shareholders Emerge from the Woodwork
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- As Carl Icahn adds fire to a scorched-Earth activist campaign against eBay's (EBAY - Get Report) management, board and business strategy, supportive shareholders of the company are beginning to come out and protest the billionaire activist investor's almost-daily screeds.
Smead Capital Management, a small Seattle-based mutual fund, on Wednesday wrote an open letter to Carl Icahn that questioned whether the legendary investor's criticisms of the company were short sighted and one-sided.
"Were you there in 2010?," Smead Capital chief investment officer William Smead wrote on the firm's blog.
Smead Capital counts eBay as its third largest stock position. Still, according to Bloomberg data from December, that investment is less than $100 million in total, a fraction of the size of Icahn's stake.
Smead Capital's blog post, however, underscores that there are investors who support eBay's strategy and its current management, led by CEO John Donahoe. As eBay's annual shareholder meeting approaches, it will be interesting to see if other rank-and-file shareholders come out and voice support of the company's management. It is also worth noting that Smead Capital has invested in eBay since 2010, when shares traded below $20 apiece, whereas Icahn first disclosed an investment in the e-commerce giant in 2014.In an interesting twist to Icahn's criticism of eBay's sale of Skype to Silver Lake Partners -- a deal that quickly paid off for the private equity giant -- Smead Capital said it sold its Microsoft (MSFT) shares shortly after the software giant bought Skype for $8.5 billion. Below are some excerpts from Smead's Capital's blog, which can be read here: "When I read your letters or see your TV appearances, I'm reminded of the old gospel hymn, 'Were You There.' Pardon us for interrupting your perpetual excoriation of CEO John Donahoe and the board of directors of eBay (EBAY), but we at Smead Capital Management would like to ask you a very important question: Were you there as an owner of eBay in 2010? Were you there, as we were, when the stock traded below $20 per share in that summer? Have you been there all along to recognize how undervalued eBay was at the start of 2011 and 2012? The answer to our questions should help others frame this debate which you have made public on whether eBay should split itself up or continue down the path based on the vision of John Donahoe. As former stockholders of Microsoft (MSFT) and on location in Seattle, we couldn't have been more thrilled when Donahoe and Silver Lake found the sucker at the poker table and sold Skype to Microsoft. Microsoft was already bleeding red ink all over the place on non-core businesses like Bing and was now going to lace our pockets by paying what we thought was way too much for Skype, while also adding to what Peter Lynch calls their 'diworsification.' In our mind, anyone who runs a large operating business or non-profit is thrilled for their first loss to be their best loss. John Donahoe cleared a $1.9 billion profit on Skype and we were thrilled as common stockholders. EBay was one of our top holdings and was our number one position at the beginning of 2010. We sold our last shares of Microsoft soon after the transaction was announced. Therefore, Carl, we agree with you that eBay is undervalued and misunderstood. We don't think many people believed in what John Donahoe was doing in 2010. The stock has been a spectacular performer since 2010 on both an absolute and a relative to the market basis. While we agree that spinning out PayPal would give the company a short-term boost in stock price, we believe it will get in the way of all the money that John Donahoe and his team can make us over the next ten to twenty years. All your activism could get in the way of what we believe will be a multi-decade ten-fold increase in our original investment in eBay. After all, since John Donahoe took over as CEO at eBay on March 31st, 2008, the stock has outperformed both the S&P 500 and the stock of Icahn Enterprises (IEP)." -- Written by Antoine Gara in New York

Healthier Halloween Candy. My new favorite go-to recipe site for Paleo friendly dishes is Elana's Pantry.
Y'all - oh my goodness. Elana might get the biggest heartsies from me ever. I found about her at a wedding of some friends who did the entire thing Paleo - even the CAKE! Paleo Banana Bread - Healthy Gluten Free Banana Bread Recipe. Naturally sweetened Paleo banana bread is easy to make with low carb gluten free ingredients including almond flour.
This Paleo recipe for banana bread is a high protein gluten free treat that is quick and easy to make. When I posted my recipe for Paleo Bread, the feedback was so amazing that I knew I'd need to come up with more gluten free Paleo bread recipes for you all. I've been working on this Banana Bread recipe for a couple of weeks and will be serving it to my guests when we break our fast for Yom Kippur this year. Recipes index. Paleo recipes index You can call them paleo recipes, but around our house, we call it dino-chow.
I don't (generally) consume grains, sugar, dairy, legumes, caffeine, or alcohol, so almost all of my dino-chow recipes are squeaky clean and paleo/Whole30/primal-approved. But there are a few big-time treats in the list, so use your noggin while reading. Speaking of treats, you won't find a lot of recipes for "paleo treats"… my goal is to give you tasty food you can eat every day. Dig in! 5-Spice Slow-Cooker Pork Ribs. Feb 23, 2012 Posted by Mel on Feb 23, 2012 in Blog, Meats/Eggs, Recipes, Soups | 109 comments 5-Spice Slow-Cooker Pork Ribs As much as I enjoy playing in the kitchen, I like to balance "project recipes" (I'm looking at you, Paleo Chicken Bastila.) and dead-simple dishes that require almost no work with a big flavor payoff.
Deconstructed Gyro Salad. Jan 13, 2012 Posted by Mel on Jan 13, 2012 in Blog, Meats/Eggs, Recipes | 86 comments Deconstructed Gyro Salad One of my favorite recipes is Stovetop Pork Carnitas (updated and renamed in Well Fed as Citrus Carnitas).
Paleo Nutrition, Nutrition Workshops, Nutrition for Health and Fitness Facilities, and the Original Whole30 Program, Designed to Change Your Life in 30 Days. Gallery - chowstalker. Gluten Free Pancake Recipe. Everyone likes pancakes.
So I was quite happy when the Almond Board asked me to create a pancake recipe for them. I do have a couple of other gluten free pancake recipes, though I think this one is the best of the bunch! Hope you enjoy these high protein, gluten free pancakes made with almond flour as much as we have. Gallery - dessertstalker. $1.99 Pre Orders. I've got some bad news for you: Try going back and seeing where you went wrong. Before you get as steamed as John McEnroe, please do me a quick favor.

"I joined the Environmental Club to help the environment," said Lauren Dunham, a sixth-grader at Draper Middle School and a member of the Environmental Club.
She plans to use the mint that she propagated for sauces after she has planted it in the spring. Her favorite activity is recycling.
However, the Environmental Club does more than just recycle to improve the school's grounds and how it runs.
"We did a flower garden once on the other side of the campus, but it was a little hard to keep watered," said Lasky. "We're looking at possibly doing something in our courtyard right here in the middle of our school. We'd like to keep working on that."
The morning announcements the students make "remind kids to recycle and to give the kid hints on ways that they can be good stewards of the land and recycle," said Lasky.
The Environmental Club is currently working on getting Styrofoam trays out of the cafeterias, but right now it's slightly "cost-prohibitive."
Lasky said she also wants to work on public outreach by having kids send letters to the editors in terms of recycling and conservation.

About this location
The Salzburg Region
Zell am See-Kaprun: the most beautiful aspects of Austria
A sparkling lake, a snow-covered glacier, and the green meadows of the surrounding mountains: this breathtaking diversity makes Zell am See-Kaprun absolutely unique. Nowhere else in Austria does nature have more to offer than here.
Zell am See
It is just a stone's throw from picturesque Schmittenhöhe to Lake Zell. On the shores of one of Europe's clearest bathing lakes, holidaymakers can take a deep breath and enjoy the fresh air of the climatic health resort Zell am See. From here, it is only a few minutes to the glacier of Kitzsteinhorn, the only glacier in the entire province of Salzburg. On its plateau at an altitude of 3,029 metres above sea level, you are awaited by perpetual ice. Snow can be taken for granted in the winter as well as in the summer months here. Enjoy the extraordinary luxury to be able to go skiing all around the year!
At this altitude, you have a spectacular view of the entire beauty of Austria. The Peakworld 3000 unveils an unforgettable panorama of 30 summits of above 3,000 metres, among them mighty Grossglockner, to you. Mind you: the delightful wellness offers down in the valley are as amazing as the view of the Alps. At indoor pools such as Kaprun's 'Tauern Spa', you can recharge your batteries. That's Austria!

As I grew sick and lay down,
you thought I was weak and would perish.
Don't you know it drains strength
to grow wings?
Now I am stronger than ever,
and betraying me is futile,
as I have seen you at your worst.
I could hunt you with predators speed,
and crush you with my teeth,
but there's no need to.
The thundering storm of truth,
evoked by my wings, will do.

Where are you going so fast?" asked Trixie as she stepped out. Timmy immediately skid to a stop and tried to think."I aaaaaa got to go the bathroom really bad!" said Timmy as he looked back for a split second before darting off. "Well, Ok. I'll see you inside I guess " said Trixie, slightly confused herself. Timmy Turner ran into the nearest bathroom. He quickly pushed open all the stalls to see if they were occupied. When he was certain no one was around he went into the last stall and shut the door."Ok Guys. Team huddle!" said Timmy out loud. Just then the family of fairies poofed onto the bathroom wall as crude drawing, blending in with the graffiti that peppered the facility."Did you hear what Trixie said?! She made it sound like we've been hanging out our entire lives. Wha

Kranjcar's agent Adrian Alja had earlier revealed that talks with Sunderland were ongoing and that a deal was close, saying: "We're going to close with Sunderland, who should have almost reached agreement with Tottenham."I think it is the best solution for Niko, as he has always wanted to stay in the Premier League."However, reports from the north-east suggest Black Cats boss Steve Bruce has no immediate interest in adding his squad, having bought 10 players already this summer.

Urine OdorSymptom Checker: Symptoms & Signs Index Medical Author: Melissa Conrad Stöppler, MD Normal urine is clear and has a straw-yellow color. While the odor of urine can vary somewhat, in most cases, it does not have a strong smell. With dehydration, the urine is more concentrated and may have a stronger ammonia scent than normal. Consumption of certain foods, such as asparagus (which can impart a characteristic odor to urine), and taking some medications may alter the odor of urine. The presence of bacteria in the urine, such as with a UTI, can affect the appearance and smell of urine.When there is an infection in the urinary tract, the urine may take on a foul-smelling odor as well as appear cloudy or bloody. A burning sensation during urination may be a symptom of a UTI. The urine may also have an abnormally sweet odor in uncontrolled diabetes, and some rare genetic conditions can also cause the urine to have an abnormal odor.
