Hi, using the product parser/adapter as an example, I created a category mysql import profile (as soon as it fully works ill post the steps/code). It works very well and imports about 1/2 of my categories (48 in total). The problem is that halfway in the collection saving process, i get this error:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 196606 bytes) in /var/www/html/melrowdirect/magento/lib/Zend/Db/Statement/Mysqli.php on line 227
And I'm totally unsure what to do now and how to fix it. Does it really need more than 64mb of memory? Why on earth does it need that for only 48 categories?
I hope anyone could help me out here,
PS. I added my category parser/convert/entity/adapter class for further info
Ok I traced the memory problem and it turns out that upon saving a category it also loads/saves all parents. This means that, depending on the depth of the category tree, the number of categories that get loaded/saved can be a lot larger than the number of categories in the tree. This is causing the massive memory usage. Also per category it uses about 240 kb of memory, i guess this is acceptable? Still seems to be quite a bit though.
Thanks, great find, definitely an aspect for optimization.
As a temporary solution, try adding ->setOrigData() right before ->save() for category model.
You mean at this spot (in the parser)?:
foreach ($collection->getIterator() as $model) { $model->saveAsImport = true; $model->setOrigData(); $model->save(); $i++; }
Cause that doesnt help :S
PS. where does it tell to also load/save the parent? Cause I cant seem to find that part yet.
Ok, the problem is due to the _afterSave method in Mage_Catalog_Model_Entity_Category, there you have
$this->_saveCategoryProducts($object) ->_updateCategoryPath($object, $this->_getTree()->getPath($object->getId()));
The _updateCategoryPath is causing all parent categories to load & save. I solved my problem by checking for my custom import flag:
if (!$object->saveAsImport()) $this->_updateCategoryPath($object, $this->_getTree()->getPath($object->getId()));
I would advise to solve the problem by updating the path using a very leight version of the objects (where only certain necessary properties are loaded), or writing a specific method that updates the path.

Liberty Media Reports Second Quarter 2013 Financial Results
Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty Media") (Nasdaq: LMCA, LMCB) today reported second quarter 2013 results. Highlights include (1):
- SiriusXM reported strong Q2 results
- Subscriber base grew to 25.1 million
- Revenue of $940 million, up 12% from the second quarter of 2012
- Adjusted EBITDA (2) grew 19% to $283 million
- Net income of $126 million
- Repurchased close to $1.3 billion in shares year to date
- Due to SiriusXM's share buybacks, Liberty's stake increased to over 53%
- Charter Communications stock up over 35% since investment completed
- Liberty stake valued at $3.5 billion
- Atlanta Braves in 1 st place in the NL East by 12 games
"We are very pleased with the job Jim and his management team did this quarter. Consumers love SiriusXM and the operating performance of the business reflects that," said Greg Maffei, President and CEO of Liberty Media. "Charter Communications has proved an attractive investment, generating a greater than 35% return since we completed the investment."
Liberty Media
On January 11, 2013, Liberty Media was separated from Starz. Therefore, as of the first quarter of 2013 Liberty began presenting Starz as discontinued operations. Liberty acquired its controlling interest in SiriusXM on January 18, 2013 and has applied purchase accounting and consolidated the results of SiriusXM since that date. Prior to the acquisition of Liberty's controlling interest, we accounted for the investment in SiriusXM using the equity method.
Liberty Media's revenue increased $943 million to $1,078 million in the second quarter. Adjusted OIBDA (2) increased $354 million to $372 million and operating income increased $234 million to $236 million. The increase in revenue, adjusted OIBDA and operating income was primarily due to the acquisition of a controlling interest in SiriusXM as discussed above. SiriusXM SiriusXM reported its stand-alone second quarter results on July 26, 2013. For presentation purposes in this release, we include below the results of SiriusXM, as reported by SiriusXM, without regard to the purchase accounting adjustments applied by us for purposes of our financial statements. Liberty Media believes the presentation of financial results as reported by SiriusXM is useful to investors as the comparability of those results are best understood in the context of SiriusXM's historical financial presentation. For a reconciliation of revenue, adjusted OIBDA (as defined by Liberty Media) and operating income for SiriusXM's stand-alone operating results as reported by SiriusXM, to those results as reported by Liberty Media, see Liberty Media's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

The fact that mold is "hidden" in buildings does not mean one cannot find it. We look by context: where do we see leak stains, or where do we see building practices most likely to have produced a hidden leak or moisture problem? Ice dam leaks in walls, hidden plumbing leaks, roof spillage by the foundation, are all common clues that often track to a wet building wall or ceiling cavity and from there to a hidden mold problem which may need to be addressed. This document describes how to find mold and test for mold in buildings, including how and where to collect mold samples using adhesive tape - an easy, inexpensive, low-tech but very effective mold testing method. This procedure helps identify the presence of or locate the probable sources of mold reservoirs in buildings, and helps decide which of these need more invasive, exhaustive inspection and testing. Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2015 InspectApedia.com, All Rights Reserved. Hidden Mold Behind Paneling in Bathrooms and BasementsWhile we do not recommend wholesale demolition of rooms where there is no visible external mold, if an area has been wet by leaks or flooding, and where paneling covers walls (or ceilings) it is common to find problematic mold growth behind paneling even if it looks quite clean on the exposed or room side. Some careful removal of sample panels in the most-suspect areas (most exposed to moisture or leaks) can disclose a hidden mold problem in a building. If initial exploration for hidden mold shows what may be a large area of mold, say 30 sq .ft. or more of moldy surface, work should stop for professional evaluation and to avoid spreading moldy dust throughout the building. All mold investigation work, demolition, and cleaning should be performed using the appropriate protective equipment. Hidden mold example: removed bathroom paneling to expose hidden mold: The photo above shows an extensive mold colony found growing on the face of drywall which had been covered by wainscot paneling in a bathroom. More mold growth was on the hidden side of the paneling itself. None of this mold was visible on the exposed bath surfaces before I pulled off this panel. Why did I pull it down? There was evidence of a history of prior leaks in building walls and wet floors in this area. Superficial cleaning and a "cover up"
installing new paneling was all that the building manager thought was required. Unfortunately it led to a greater cost
later to properly demolish and clean this area. Remove basement paneling to expose hidden mold: In this photo of me pulling open the edge of basement paneling more than 20 years ago, we found that a large mold colony had been generated on the drywall surface hidden behind the wood paneling. Forty years previously, and 20 years before this inspection photo was taken, a single event basement flood had occurred. The owners had pumped out water and dried the basement within a few hours of the event. There was almost no discernable clue on the exposed side of the paneling itself. Yet because the wall cavities themselves were not opened at the time of the flood, hidden surfaces and materials stayed wet long enough to initiate a large fungal colony. It appears that once the mold colony was established, periodic elevations in basement humidity were enough to keep the mold colony happily growing along. One of the home's occupants who grew up in this home developed severe asthma. She told me that if she simply stood at the top of the basement stairs above this room she would have an asthma attack. Warning notice Guidelines defining what's a "large amount" of mold and what's reasonable for a homeowner to handle have been published by several states including New York and California. Links to some key documents describing mold cleanup and mold remediation procedures are at InspectAPedia.com/mold/Mold_Action_Plan.htm#clean. People who are allergic, asthmatic, infant, elderly, immune-impaired, etc., should not disturb mold and should not be in the area where mold remediation is being performed. Consult with your doctor, health department or other professional before tackling this job yourself.

I am researching the GAJAN family genealogy. In 1898, Joseph Paul Gajan immigrated to the United States from Grenicz, Slovakia (then Austia-Hungary) and originally settled in the Scranton, Pennsylvania area. Eventually, he met and married a fellow Slovak, Susanna Kapralcik. They removed to California, Pennsylvania and began a family of 8 children. The family knows that Joseph had a sister with the married name Mudry in the Scranton, Pennsylvania area and a brother who is reported to have settled in California. We would like to extend our knowledge of these family lines. Unfortunately, we have only been able to trace the Gajan lineage back only one generation from Joseph and Susanna. We will search until our own sun sets.Matrilineally, I am also researching the RANKIN family, of Fayette City, Pennsylvania. I have traced back to William Lawrence Rankin, but my only knowledge past that is that his father was a Civil War veteran from Pennsylvania. I have found numerous veterans named Rankin, but have been unable to make a definite link.Clearly this Gajan Family Genealogical Home Page is a work in process. In future efforts, I will outline the family tree and post specific questions the family is looking to answer.I would appreciate any assistance, no matter how thin the thread might seem. I will be glad to help anyone else in the search for their lineage. |

Sneaker Con Atlanta September 2014 On-Feet Recap – Part 2 by Patrick Johnson 30 Comments
February 20, 2013 BY John Kim / 7
So Nike just lowered the price of the Corks from a mammoth $305 to a much more reasonable (we use that term loosely) $250. That should free your wallet up a bit to cop some matching accessories, like these custom Nike Elite socks and laces designed with the luxurious 'Cork' graphic. Again, these are customized versions of authentic Nike socks, meaning Nike itself didn't create these, but the act of wearing a custom is hardly a faux pas anymore, correct? Check out the photos below and throw some bids in right now in this live listing from hotpursuit60 on eBay.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I have a problem with the /ff/ ligature in a particular typeface. when /ff/ is automatically replaced with a ligature in InDesign, there appears a gap to the next letter, except for those combinations for which other ligatures exist, like ffi and ffl. I contacted the designer over this and he said I should just turn of ligatures for this combination.
I tried to do the following: I turned of ligatures, and instead inserted them manually through search/replace. This is a bit of a hassle but works. But I would prefer using ligatures as a default, and only to turn it of for the combination /ff/, but not for /ffi/ and /ffl/. Is there some way to change the one without changing the other? Perhaps some kind of either/or code? I work in CS2, so no GREP styles available yet...
Thanks a lot!
PS I don't want to discredit the designer for this, which is why I don't mention the name of the font here.
What about applying some kerning between the ff ligature and the following glyphs?
Hm ... CS2 ... Can you make a character style with negative kerning and then search/replace to apply the style to instances of ff? (I'm not sure if CS2 has the features to do that.) Or, if the problem is in the font itself, are you allowed to edit the font?
Yes, kerning certainly works best. I don't know why I forgot about that... But if the problem occurs often (in german /ff/ is common) is there a way to automate this, so that all instances of a certain combination are always kerned tighter?
@Joshua Langman
Character styles can not change kerning, it can only be changed to optical, metrics or none. I tried using tighter tracking, but this breaks the ligature. I could ask if I'm allowed to edit it, but I'm afraid I might break more than I would fix, so... I'd rather leave that up to the type designer, and try to find a solution in InDesign.
I could ask if I'm allowed to edit it, but I'm afraid I might break more than I would fix . . .
You could add a series of ff and single character kerns to the kern feature ahead of the class kerning. That way they are exceptions, and won't break anything. I can't imagine that kerning would generally be a part of the "no modification" clause, else InDesign's optical kerning (and any plug-in), and Quark's kerning routine would break the EULA. The only "no kerning changes" EULA I've ever seen was in one of Porchez's font licenses.
How would I do this? I'm hardly an expert in Fontlab, so even such a simple modification is a bit scary. I tried modifying simple functions like kerning and spacing in Fontlab before, and the results have sometimes been that somehow the hinting was completely off somehow, or other mistakes happening or functions being destroyed rather than fixed. This is why I'd rather work inside InDesign. I have Cool Kerning installed, but haven't really worked with it yet. A first try results in the ligature not working, but that is probably some error I made. I'll keep trying anyway. Thanks to all, more ideas are welcome!

Doug Liman is reportedly in final negotiations to direct Splinter Cell, a film adaptation of Ubisoft's stealth-action game series Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell.
According to Hollywood Reporter, Liman (The Bourne Identity, Mr and Mrs Smith) will be developing the movie with New Regency. Tom Hardy has been named to star in the feature film, which has a planned release date of 2015.
The latest entry in the Splinter Cell series, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, was released in August last year for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, and Wii U. Ubisoft revealed that game sales failed to meet initial targets, selling approximately 2 million copies last year.

Most students also incorrectly believe plants obtain their mass from the soil rather than primarily from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. "When you see a tree growing," Anderson said, "it's a lot easier to believe that tree is somehow coming out of the soil rather than the scientific reality that it's coming out of the air."
The researchers say biology textbooks and high-school and college science instructors need to do a better job of teaching the fundamentals particularly how matter transforms from gaseous to solid states and vice-versa.
It won't be easy, Anderson said, because students' beliefs of the carbon cycle are deeply engrained (such as the misconception that plants get most of their nutrients from the soil). Instructors should help students understand that the use of such "everyday, informal reasoning" runs counter to true scientific literacy, he said.
The implications are great for a generation of citizens who will grapple with complicated environmental issues such as clean energy and carbon sequestration more than any generation in history, Anderson said.
"One of the things I'm interested in," he said, "is students' understanding of environmental problems. And probably the most important environmental problem is global climate change. And that's attributable to a buildup of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. And understanding where that carbon dioxide is coming from and what you can do about it fundamentally involves understanding the scientific carbon cycle."

"Negligable results, can cause stability problems"
I've tried using this program on my 56K modem, and my friend tried it on his 3Mb/s cable connection - even with extensive manual tweaking, the results from this program were pretty negligible on both computers - and my friend's machine became unstable after using it. At best, it's barely worth trying out - but I can almost guarantee it won't be worth your money, and it may destabilize your network connections. I would recommend TuneUp Utilities 2003, which is also carried on this site - I've had excellent all-around results with that on multiple computers, both broadband and dial-up.

Terrestrial isopods (suborder Oniscidea) excrete most nitrogen diurnally as volatile ammonia, and ammonia-loaded animals accumulate nonessential amino acids, which may constitute the major nocturnal nitrogen pool. This study explored the relationship between ammonia excretion, glutamine storage/mobilization, and water balance, in two sympatric species Ligidium lapetum (section Diplocheta), a hygric species; and Armadillidium vulgare (Section Crinocheta), a xeric species capable of water-vapor absorption (WVA). Ammonia excretion (12-h), tissue glutamine levels, and water contents were measured following field collection of animals at dusk and dawn. In both species, diurnal ammonia excretion exceeded nocturnal excretion four- to fivefold while glutamine levels increased four- to sevenfold during the night. Most glutamine was accumulated in the somatic tissues ("body wall"). While data support the role of glutamine in nocturnal nitrogen storage, potential nitrogen mobilization from glutamine breakdown (162 μmol g−1 in A. vulgare) exceeds measured ammonia excretion (2.5 μmol g−1) over 60-fold. This may serve to generate the high hemolymph ammonia concentrations \(({\text{and high}}\;P_{{\text{NH}}_3 } )\) seen during volatilization. The energetic cost of ammonia volatilization is discussed in the light of these findings. Mean water contents were similar at dusk and dawn in both species, indicating that diel cycles of water depletion and replenishment were not occurring.

Ancient Gods of Agriculture By Yona Williams 11/26/10
Many cultures give praise to certain ancient gods and goddesses for showing them how to tend to their land. They believe it is because of them that their ancestors learned the ways of agriculture. In this article, you will learn about some of the deities associated with agriculture – some of which who had ties to the underworld, such as Osiris – an ancient Egyptian god who was known as an earth god. Osiris – the Egyptians To the Egyptians, Osiris was a rather ancient god – even pre-dating the Egyptian civilization. Myths speak of the god as a former king who taught his people how to sow seeds and harvest what the soil could give them. When Osiris was no longer a king among the living, he became an earth god associated with fertile soil, trees, and corn. As more time passed, the god later became the ruler of the Egyptian underworld called Duat. During the time of his worship, the Moon was an important part of the ancient Egyptian belief system. There is a legend involving Osiris that says his body was torn into pieces and then made whole again. Since plant growth usually stays in line with lunar cycles, Osiris became linked to the Moon. Cronus – the Greeks The Greeks saw the god Cronus and the Romans viewed the god Saturn in a similar manner as the Egyptians looked upon Osiris. Cronus was one of the oldest gods associated with Greek myths. One of the earliest depictions of the god is a statue that dates back to 7000 BCE. Like Osiris, Cronus was believed to be a king of the living who taught his people the ways of agriculture. He also became an earth god linked to the harvest. It is not known if Cronus willingly relocated to the edge of Tartarus (the Greek underworld), but that is where he ended up. In the underworld, the lord and ruler was Cronus' son Hades (or Pluto). Balder – the Nordics The Sun is a significant component in myths regarding agriculture. Nordic lore says that the Sun god named Balder made a journey across the sky so that the darkness was giving life with energy. This also signified a rebirth of the Sun. The return of the Sun was very important to many different gods and male deities were known for fighting in favor of Balder's return. They were in charge of bringing the Sun back, while female deities worked on the renewal of Earth's fertility. These roles were highly important, as the Nordic people believed that the fight for life took place both on Earth and in the sky.

Tom Ford cashmere/silk shawl sweater, marked down to $949 from $1900
RLPL cahsmere (I think??) jacket. Quite similar to Abed's, actually. No price tag, but I had to guess it was over $1k, possibly $2k.
Also got realllllly close to picking up an Isaia shirt for $67, several Stefano Ricci and Isaia 7 fold ties for $67, and a Kiton 7 fold for $79.
Outlets are dangerous business.

The government, according to local media, has begun calling meetings across the nation to explain the layoffs and options ahead.
Raúl Castro, who has led the nation since his older brother, Fidel, fell ill in 2006, has long been seen as a pragmatist who is open to economic changes – and this move bolsters that reputation.
Under Raúl Castro's leadership, Cubans have been given the right to buy cellphones and own other electronics. Private taxi drivers have been granted state licenses and private farmers have been granted state land. But the changes announced this month are the most far-reaching to date.
The layoffs will affect 10 percent of the 5.1 million workforce. The plan is an attempt to scale back a bloated, inefficient state payroll and is expected to be completed by spring 2011 and affect all government ministries.
"The Cuban government is coming to terms with reality; they have to cede ground to private enterprise," says Ted Henken, a professor at Baruch College at The City University of New York, who has studied private enterprise in Cuba.
The government began to tolerate a degree of private enterprise in the 1990s, after the collapse of the Soviet Union left Cuba without its main benefactor. Today, nearly 1 million Cubans work in the private sector – and several thousand (the exact number is unknown) engage in the black market economy. A doctor, for example, who earns just a little more than the average monthly national salary of $20, might rent out a room on the side to earn extra money.

Lyrics Born, 'Everywhere at Once' (Anti-)
A son of the same East Bay scene that spawned DJ Shadow and Blackalicious, Lyrics Born always has balanced a faith in old-school funk with a flair for quippy homilies. Here, he adopts the same wry, level-headed tack whether grappling with shopaholic tendencies or relationship problems, but relegates his gruff, insouciant MC flow to merely another sonic element among the rubbery bass and synth burbles. The result is less an uncommonly danceable indie-rap disc than it is an uncommonly thoughtful groove album. BUY: iTunesAmazon
Rilo Kiley, 'Under the Blacklight' (Warner Bros.)
Rilo Kiley singer Jenny Lewis covered the Traveling Wilburys' wizened 1988 sing-along "Handle With Care" on her solo debut last year, and she wasn't kidding. Under the Blacklight lets us know just how not kidding she was. Clearly, "I love the '80s" means many things to many people, and these Los Angeles indie-rockers gone major are too wily to settle for cheeky synth-pop pastiche. Instead, with producers Jason Lader and Mike Elizondo (the Dr.
Gogol Bordello, 'Super Taranta!' (Sideonedummy)
Eugene Hütz's revolution has hit a snag. On 2005's Gypsy Punks Underground World Strike, the Gogol Bordello frontman roused hordes of rabble from the urban immigrant stew he dubbed "the Gypsy part of town" toward two radical goals: a joyously chaotic hedonism and a borderless planet populated by interracial mongrels. Two years later, gentility threatens the first ("No can do this, no can do that," the firebrand grumbles on "Tribal Connections"); and Hütz acknowledges the second's downside on "Zina-Marina," in which Ukrainian girls are lured into Middle Eastern slavery by Top Model promises. And don't get him started on that lousy "American Wedding" -- over by 1 a.m., you call that a party? Undaunted, Hütz declares his new "Supertheory of Supereverything" and his indebtedness to the tarantella, an Italian folk song and dance.
Björk, 'Volta' (One Little Indian/ Atlantic)
It takes a brave woman to second-guess Timbaland. Or a foolish one. Or Björk. Word that the Icelandic iconoclast had retwiddled the results of her in-studio tryst with Mr. Mosely dashed any hopes that she'd abandon herself to horny megapop escapism. And Volta's amazing opener, "Earth Intruders," dispels any doubts about the strength of her arty instincts. Over Tim's stomping beat (weirdly redolent of the introductory jackboots of Never Mind the Bollocks), Björk layers percussive clatter from the Congolese ensemble Konono No. 1 for a funky stomp that's equal parts pre- and postmodern. She channels that avant-trad feeling into the brassy arrangements, suitable for both a medieval Viking fortress or contemporary concert hall.
Brother Ali, 'The Undisputed Truth' (Rhymesayers)
As befits an albino Muslim MC, this Minneapolis stalwart sets out to embody apparent contradictions. But the "thugged-out nerd" who peppers battle raps with Koranic wisdom is something way sexier and smarter than the "Howard Stern meets Howard Zinn" hybrid he suggests.He's a doting dad who bristles with electric decency at everyday injustice and crows that "for me, 'not broke' is rich." Producer Ant perfectly underscores Ali's gruff cadence, simultaneously self-assured and stressed, with a melodic lope that scrunches soul vocals underneath loops of bluesy guitar.

RJD2, 'The Third Hand' (XL)
Well, it's 2007 -- what self-respecting artist could spend his whole life as a trip-hop DJ? In 2004, the Philly transplant's more song-oriented Since We Last Spoke disturbed the visions of DJ Shadow dancing in the heads of fans who gravitated to his debut tour de groove, Deadringer. Now he's left his label Def Jux and definitively moved on from underground rap to one-man bedroom pop, longer on nuance than hook, as textured synths and harmonies shimmer with that "my roommate's asleep" feel. Sharp beats, though -- as an indie-pop musician, he's one damn fine trip-hop DJ.

The Streets, 'The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living' (Vice)
If you don't think pop stardom is a total drag, well then, you must not be very famous. Just ask Britney or Lindsay, Michael or Madonna. Now even Mike Skinner has lent his 'umble mumble to this all-star chorus of lamentation. With The Hardest Way to Make an Easy Living, the 26-year-old British MC/producer, better known as the Streets, flirts with the perilous self-indulgence of celebrity autobiography. But with his knack for extracting humor from the mundane, Skinner's the perfect poet for this snooze of a topic: Tedium is his medium. His perspective on the annoyances that beset the hapless and famous hardly differs from his insight into "a day in the life of a geezer," which he surveyed on his 2002 debut, Original Pirate Material. Geezer's famous now. In Britain, anyway. Rather than get Jenny-from-the-block on us, though, Skinner focuses on the specifics of his day-to-day routine.
Belle and Sebastian, 'The Life Pursuit' (Matador)
Stuart Murdoch knows from adolescent identity crisis. As the leader of Scottish folk-pop bookworms Belle and Sebastian, he's lisped the prematurely jaded journal jottings of the precocious characters in his songs for close to a decade. If at times he's overindulged the brats, well, how better to reveal the insecurities behind their kinky, highfalutin boasts? But the 37-year-old Murdoch has somewhat less perspective on B'n'S's own identity crisis. After a cumbersome attempt to institute a songwriting democracy in 2000 with Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like A Peasant, band member Isobel Campbell departed, following Stuart David, who had already left. Three years later Murdoch brought on producer Trevor Horn, who dressed up Dear Catastrophe Waitress in a glitzy wardrobe of '60s pop frippery. After that hearty, rewarding belly flop, The Life Pursuit is a series of cautious toe-dips.
Morningwood, 'Morningwood' (Capitol)
Chantal Claret has a message for all the "little kids who love the rock'n'roll" out there, with their tattoos and effed-up haircuts: "You sure got the style, but you ain't got the soul." Funny thing is, said dilettantes have probably already sung along with those lyrics at a Morningwood show, posted an MP3 of the group's album opener, "Nü Rock," on their blogs, or, hell, made out with a member of the band. Indeed, Morningwood emerge from the most hyper-hyped depths of New York scenedom; Claret met bassist and songwriting partner Pedro Yanowitz at Sean Lennon's birthday party, for cripe's sake. Takes one to know one. Okay, we'll play fair: Morningwood's not all style. Their gutsy spirit, while not "soul" exactly, does allow the band to dodge flippant dismissals of poseurhood. And catchy tuneage prevails.
The Fiery Furnaces, 'Rehearsing My Choir' (Rough Trade)
Rock siblings aren't like the rest of us. Their harmonies can blend almost incestuously, as though locking away family mysteries in a mesh of notes. Though Matt Friedberger mostly leaves the singing to his sister, Eleanor, the duo codes its art pop in a private language only the genetically linked share. The Fiery Furnaces' debut, Gallowsbird's Bark, sutured a garage-rock backbone to pop ectoplasm reminiscent of Brian Eno's spacey '70s miniatures, creating a delight so familiar it seemed almost fathomable. Their 2004 follow-up, Blueberry Boat, demanded not just full attention but utter devotion. Critics compared its mangled narratives and mingled tunelets with a DJ master mix or Brian Wilson's Smile.

So the emphasis is not on conduct. The emphasis is on the mirrorlike purity of consciousness.
The Buddha said:
Even if one escapes from the evil creations, it is one's.fortune to be born a human being.
These are the seven great rare fortunes. Buddha talks of them many times, in many ways. They have to be understood; they are of great import.
First: it is a rare fortune to be born as a human being. Why? Why is it not a rare fortune to be born as a dog? or as a buffalo? or as a donkey? or as a tree? or as a rock? Why is it a rare blessing to be born as a human being? - because except for human beings, the whole of nature is fast asleep. You also are not awake. Let me repeat: the whole of nature is asleep except for man, and man is also not awake, but just in the middle.
Sometimes it happens in the morning that you go on tossing and turning in the bed. You know that now it is time to get up, and still there is sleep. It is a midway state. You can hear the milkman talking to your wife, you can hear the children rushing and getting ready for school, you can hear the bus stop outside the house to take the children, and still dreaming also continues. You still feel sleepy, the eyes are closed. Sometimes you drift into sleep, sometimes you drift out of it. This is the state of human beings.
And Buddha says: It is a rare blessing - because the whole of nature is very deeply asleep, so deeply asleep that there is not even a dream. It is in a state of sushupti. Man has come to the second state: the state of dreaming. At least there is a certain dream. Dream means that you are not fast asleep anymore. You are certainly not awake, because when you become awake you become a buddha. You are somewhere in between the animals and the Buddha. You are hanging in a limbo.
And Buddha says: It is a great opportunity, a rare blessing - because if you make a little effort you can become awake. A dog cannot become awake, whatsoever effort he makes. A tree cannot become awake; howsoever hard it tries, it is not possible. If a tree tries hard, it will become a dog. If the dog tries hard, the dog may become a man. But awakening happens only when you are a human being. The way towards godliness goes only from the human being. And in the East we think - and the thought has much validity in it - that even devas, angels, gods, are not as blessed as a man. Why? Because man stands on the crossroads. Even if gods have to become liberated, they will have to be born as men.

Grafton basketball players reward teammate's joyful spirit with shot in the spotlight
GRAFTON, N.D. — With one second remaining on the scoreboard clock, hopes were dim for the plan to get senior Blake Bjornson his first varsity basket.
The Grafton Spoilers were inbounding the basketball at the far end of the court, 94 feet from the hoop. A teammate rolled the ball down the court, Blake scooped it up 20 feet from the basket against a purposely passive Thompson Tommies' defense, took one dribble and shot.

Pioneering educator Juliet V. García, the first Hispanic woman to lead a U.S. college or university, will deliver the address at Smith College's 2015 Commencement ceremony, Sunday, May 17.
Smith students interested in the emerging field of data science will have an opportunity to study the discipline through a new collaboration with Mount Holyoke College and MassMutual.
New in Insight: What can Plato's views of human nature and political community teach us about bioethical topics like genetic manipulation and euthanasia? Plenty, says Professor of Philosophy Susan Levin.
For the past five years, Smith's grant-funded Science Teaching Fellows Program has been training science majors for stints in local K-12 classrooms, giving them experience as classroom teachers.

We run a workshop for kids who like to make stuff and their friends. Each month we'll box up and ship "shares" of our projects/ideas.
About this project
We're the Parts and Crafts Collective! We run a kids' hackerspace, makerspace, and community workshop in Somerville, MA. where we help kids and their friends make their ideas and projects into events and objects. We'd like to help you, too!
What's a CSE?
It's a box of projects! Riffing on the idea of Community Supported Agriculture, where you buy into a farm and receive a box of veggies every week, we'll be sending out a monthly box of stuff -- craft, technology, and engineering projects -- to make and do. Each box will include materials, instructions, ideas, links to further research -- a semi-curated snapshot of what we're up to each month.
What might show up in your box?
Build your own lightsaber! (PVC, LEDs, and battery pack included) Introduction to lockpicking! How to juggle (and how to make your own juggling balls)! Turn your house into a marble run! A variety of exciting things to make and do and think about. Each month we will send out a major project and a couple of smaller projects and experiments. We will create instructions and package any materials that you aren't likely to already have lying around your house.
All of the projects will be developed month-by-month at Parts and Crafts, based on things we've tested with kids (or have been developed by kids) in our summer and year-long programs.
Where does the money go?
The project will provide the seed funds for kit development and will give us a place to test out our ideas –everyone who subscribes will get a "share," and we'll get a chance to see how the kits work, and how to adapt them as the year progresses. We'd hope to have at least 100 people sign up to get kits, and use Kickstarter as a way to gauge interest and share ideas for the project.
Any additional funds will go towards supporting the grand dream -- a year-round open workshop for kids, where kids, adults, and creative people can drop in to work on projects, acquire new tools and skills, and work together to make things, and make things happen.
What's the target age range for your kits?
The kits, like most of our programs, will be aimed at kids between the ages of 7 and 12 (perhaps requiring a bit of parental guidance on the lower end), but will be projects that we, as curious and playful adults, find compelling as well.
As we grow all of our programs, we want to expand into doing more work with teens. If a similar program for teens and young adults seems interesting to you, let us know and we'll consider starting something like it after we get this off the ground.
Shipping, Local Pickup, Build-Parties
Base rates for the CSE are based on local pickup in the Somerville area, where every month we'll host a build party in our workshop for CSE subscribers to pick up their kits and work on their projects together. Details on this to follow!
If you're interested in setting up a build day in your school, workshop, hackerspace, girl/boy scout troops, but don't live in the Somerville area, send us an email! We'd love to help you start such a thing in your own area.
We're happy to ship to anywhere in the United States for an additional $5 per box (it's slightly higher than, say, Amazon, because we don't currently have bulk shipping and aren't quite sure how much stuff is going to weigh) We can talk about international shipping but think that the costs would probably make it not-particularly-worthwhile to you.
(If you made a pledge before we added this note expecting to have your boxes delivered to you, don't worry! As our very first supporters, we're perfectly happy to give you a shipping discount!)
And, because the long list of options on the righthand side of the screen is confusing, here's the subscription cost breakdown:
1 month -- $30 local pickup, $35 with shipping
3 months -- $90 local pickup, $105 with shipping
6 months -- $150 local pickup, $180 with shipping
12 months -- $250 local pickup, $300 with shipping
Thanks to everyone who checked out this page and took a look at the video! Thanks also to Jonah Dempcy for writing an amazing song ("Humans in Universe") and putting it under a Creative Commons License, and to Mike Chaput, flickr user 427, for doing the same with a photograph of a delicious looking box of veggies.
Lastly, many thanks to Sprout, for use of the photo of the as-yet-unreconstructed Streetbeest -- and to Alec and Shaunalynn, for spearheading reconstruction in the basement of Parts and Crafts. We encourage you to check out their work!

State may go after deadbeat parents casino winnings
by WILY/WRXX News Staff • March 26, 2013 • News
Lawmakers are going after deadbeat parents in Illinois. A new bill seeks to go after people who win more than $30,000 at casinos, but skip out on their child support payments. The bill would require casino operators to check with the state's child support registry before cutting the big check. The bill has already passed a senate committee.
