|Virtual ID card could pose problems
|Source: Security Park - Posted by Vincenzo Ciaglia
A virtual ID card designed to improve children's net safety has been launched in the UK, US, Canada and Australia. The NetIDMe card can be swapped by children online when using chatrooms, instant messaging and social networks. Parents and children can apply for the card using credit card details and a form countersigned by a professional who knows the child concerned.
Tom Newton, product manager at content filtering firm SmoothWall, said: "The new child online safety card, which was launched in the UK yesterday, has been over-hyped and could end up causing more harm than good. Of course, it is a worthy idea and will certainly be a blueprint for future similar schemes, but this initial effort has some serious flaws. For starters it costs money to purchase and then use, which will put some parents off. It is complicated to get a hold of and probably most dangerous of all is that it will mean parents will think they don't have to monitor their children's online activities as closely.

Interesting, I remember the last time clang was tested using an AMD CPU the performance was abysmal compared to GCC.
and for being ~$800 cheaper, the FX-8350 performs pretty well in general.
Phoronix: GCC 4.8.0 vs. LLVM Clang 3.3 Compiler Performance
In preparation for the upcoming release of LLVM 3.3, here is an extensive round of C/C++ benchmarks from GCC 4.8.0, LLVM Clang 3.2, and LLVM Clang 3.3-rc1 to look at the Linux compiler performance. Benchmarks happened from three different systems bearing Intel Core i7 3960X, AMD FX-8350, and Intel Core i3 3217U processors for a diverse look at the performance.

Glad to see he is now displaying full optimization flags, also glad that he is using -O3.
Still don't understand why he persists in doing openmp benchmark comparisons as they are totally worthless until clang/llvm supports openmp.
He finally acknowledges that testing stuff like ffmpeg yields no real difference as pretty much all performance critical code is in assembly, so why not just _disable_ assembly optimizations? It would definitely be interesting in seeing how these compilers compare when optimizing video compression oriented code, just compile and benchmark x264 with './configure --disable-asm'.
Also had to laugh at the bias when describing the results, in the C-Ray test GCC4.8 was (by my quick estimate) ~10% faster on Intel Core 3960X, ~40% faster on AMD FX-8350 and ~10% faster on Intel Core i3, this result is described by Michael as a 'slight performance edge'.
10%-40% is not a slight performance edge in compiler optimization.
A lot of times, even stuff that is heavily threaded, like a game, will still be limited by the speed of a single thread, because the work they do on the background threads is relatively limited compared to the main one.
You need to find something that truly breaks up equal amounts of work on 8+ threads to make the AMD chips look good right now.

Safe end to 3-hour standoff: Suspect lets hostage go, is taken into custody
Friday, February 1, 2013
MIDDLETON — The voice that guided Richard Penney back to the edge of Lakeshore Drive Thursday night was unyielding.
"It was a tremendous effort, and the chief should be proud of his officers and the first responders, and we're just grateful that it ended as peacefully as it did," he said.
The man involved in the standoff was described in police radio communications as approximately 6 feet, 2 inches tall, and weighing about 220 pounds. He was said to be wearing a black coat and pants.
Welford said parents had been notified through an emergency notification system their children were being held and many parents had already driven to the Farmington middle school to pick up their children. Children were supervised by school personnel, Welford said.
Another resident who was impacted was Mike Dello, who lives on Sunrise Drive. Thursday's incident came at a time when power was already out in the neighborhood due to high winds, adding to the confusion for Dello and other residents. Dello said he came home to find armed police officers on patrol.

Olympians and Celebrities Highlight 15th Annual Rock 'n' Roll Marathon
Kenyan Man, Russian Woman Win Marathon; Meb Keflezighi, Kim Smith Take Half-Marathon Titles; Post-Race Concert Headlined By Donavon Frankenreiter; Celebrities and Dignitaries Highlight Original Rock 'n' Roll Marathon Series Event in San Diego
SAN DIEGO – June 3, 2012 – The 15th annual Rock 'n' Roll Marathon was a star-studded success.
Meb Keflezighi, winner of the U.S. Olympic marathon trials, appears ready for the London Games. The 37-year-old ran smoothly and effortlessly on Sunday, winning the Rock 'n' Roll San Diego Half-Marathon in 1:03:11, his second consecutive victory in his adopted hometown. Ryan Hall, 29, the U.S. record-holder for the half-marathon at 59:43, struggled because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot, and finished a distant second in 1:05:39.
The women's half-marathon was won by New Zealand Olympian Kim Smith in 1:08:37, a time that would have placed her seventh among the men.
Nixon Machichim of Kenya broke away with a little over two miles remaining and won the men's Rock 'n' Roll San Diego Marathon in 2:10:03. Russia's Alevtina Ivanova also made a late burst and won the women's marathon in 2:27:44. The men's and women's marathon champions each earned $25,000.
More than 30,000 entrants from all 50 states and 40 countries were greeted with ideal running weather on Sunday morning. The men's half-marathon was the keynote event, expected to be a tense duel between the two Olympians. But after about a mile, it was no contest. Keflezighi, the 2004 Olympic silver medalist, pulled away and the suffering Hall could not keep up.
"I wanted to go out early because I know how the race will be in London," Keflezighi said. "I tried to duplicate what it will be like there."
The San Diego course is similar to London in that it has several turns and downhills.
"This was not a do-or-die race, but I'm a competitor," Keflezighi said. "I'm not a guy who likes to sit back and waits to kick in the last mile."
There was no need for a closing kick this time, as Keflezighi kept widening his lead as the race progressed. As the confident Keflezighi crossed the finish line, he was greeted by a large contingent of family and friends, including his father and one of his brothers, who lifted him onto their shoulders. Also along the course, there were groups of people urging him on, shouting "Olympics, Olympics, Olympics."
"It's always good to be back in San Diego," said Keflezighi, who ran his first professional race here last year, after having grown up and matured in the Southern California city.
Keflezighi's coach, Bob Larsen, generally was satisfied with his protégé's performance. "He still has a lot of work to do," Larsen said, "but so far so good."
This was Keflezighi's final race before the Olympics. From now on, it will be a lot of training. Keflezighi said his longest week of training this year consisted of 90 miles. Now, he wants to step it up to 100.
Hall, meanwhile, will be concentrating on improving his condition.
"I believe it's going to get better before the Olympics," he said of his painful injury. "Running with Meb always is an honor. He has the heart of a champion. Meb always inspires me to get through these tough moments."
Hall admitted he made a mistake in this race. "It was too quick for me," he said. "I shouldn't have gone out that fast. The course beat me up. It wasn't my best day. I was hurting the last part of the course. It felt like my foot was glued to the ground. I felt like a one-legged horse."
"Now, I'll just have to train for the Olympics," he added.
In the women's half-marathon, Smith, 30, ran unchallenged, winning by nearly seven minutes over runner-up Ariana Hilborn of Scottsdasle, Ariz. (1:15:32). Smith's time fell a little short of the 1:07:11 she set at Rock 'n' Roll Philadelphia last year, the fastest time ever run on American soil.
"This is a lot harder course than Philadelphia," she said. "But it was a good, hard run. It was good preparation for the Olympics. It's hard to push yourself when there are no other women around."
The men's marathon was a more competitive race, with about a half-dozen runners still in contention with just over two miles remaining. Then, Machichim took charge and won by 11 seconds over second-place finisher Desta Gebrehiwot of Ethiopia (2:10:14). Jeffrey Eggleston of Flagstaff, Ariz., was the best American, finishing eighth in 2:13:13.
"I was ready to go," Machichim said. "I was expecting to run 2:09. But the last half of the course was hard. I don't like the hills, I like to run on a straight course."
Ivanova had not planned to run in San Diego, joining the women's marathon field only about two weeks ago. Her original plan was to run in Ottawa on May 27, but that race fell through when she couldn't obtain a Canadian visa (she has a U.S. visa). Meseret Legesse of Ethiopia finished second at 2:28:01, and Whitney Patton of San Marcos, Calif., was the top American, eighth at 2:49:50.
A translator said Ivanova, 37, ran well because she liked the cool conditions in San Diego on Sunday. "She said she was very happy because it is difficult for Russians to run in the heat," the translator said.
The half marathon event featured several notable runners from reality TV moms to elected officials. Television personality Kate Gosselin finished the event with a time of 1:56:43. Dr. Andy Baldwin, an ING KiDS ROCK ambassador known for his appearance on ABC's 'The Bachelor' Season 10, ran the race in 1:31:25. Baldwin was participating with Team Fletcher, a group led by Assemblyman Nathan Fletcher, who is running for Mayor of San Diego and ran 13.1-mile race in 1:43:51. Former NFL player Tim Dwight, who played four seasons with the San Diego Chargers, completed the half in 1:56:07. Former Raising Sextuplets star Jenny Masche completed the race with her new husband Levi, with a time of 2:31:42.
U.S. Congressman Duncan D. Hunter participated in the event with his wife Margret, crossing the finish line in 2:45:48. Ironman World Champion Chrissie Wellington participated in full costume with Competitor Magazine co-founder Bob Babbitt and the infamous contingent of Running Elvi.
Famous for lining race routes with live bands and cheerleaders, 102 athletes have completed all 15 Rock 'n' Roll Marathons in San Diego. The Rock 'n' Roll Marathon started as a simple idea—the idea of making running fun—and soon transformed San Diego into the birthplace of a global phenomenon by combining live music, elite competition, recreational running and charity fundraising into a grand entertainment event. Since the first Rock 'n' Roll Marathon in 1998, Team In Training participants have raised $171 million in San Diego to support The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's blood cancer research and patient services programs.
The 16th Rock 'n' Roll San Diego Marathon & Half Marathon To Benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is set for Sunday, June 2, 2013.

A blend of hardcore and metal music that evolved in the mid-to-late 90's with bands like Unbroken, Earth Crisis, Harvest, Endeavor, Poison The Well and Unearth. There is a liberal use of breakdowns in the music and the lyrical themes range from the political to the personal.
Often associated with the nu hardcore and fashioncore scenes.

"Bleeding Through is a present-day metalcore act."
by Straight Up June 18, 2004
Metalcore is a genre that has been around since the eighties but not totally popularized until the mid 90's with bands such as Unearth, the modern forerunners in the genre. It includes a mixture of hardcore punk and heavy metal and uses generally two guitarists, a bassist and double kick drums for the instrumentals. Many bands use more than one singer, one generally for more melodic lines and the other, lead singer, who carries many of the vocal burden and usually "screams".
Metalcore bands include: 36 Crazyfists, As I Lay Dying, Bleeding Through, Bloodsimple, Diecast, God Forbid, Haste The Day, Hatebreed, Lamb of God, Norma Jean, Still Remains, Unearth, Walls of Jericho.
by The One You Seek December 20, 2006
A genre of music that had began in the late 80s/early 90s. Originally combining elements of metal and hardcore, it has now evolved into a dime-a-dozen plethora of bands that sound exactly the same. New school metalcore bands borrow heavily from melodic European death metal combined with stolen Slayer riffs and vocals ranging from annoying screams to cupped-mike growls. Band names are usually longer than the songtitles (i.e. Between The Buried And Me, Every Time I Die, etc). Mostly caters to mallrat teens who are glued to Facebook, shop at Hot Topic, wear skinny jeans, skateboard, and play Call Of Duty all day long.

A genre of new age metal that began in the late 1990's with bands like Slipknot and Killswitch Engaged. It infuses Punk and Extreme Metal to create a strong, yet complex rhythm. It differs from Punk Metal by putting emphasis on the breakdown portion of the song, and often invoke a more depressed and somewhat hopeless feeling. Some other modern examples include Attack Attack, Underoath, Atreyu, Trivium, All That Remains, and many more.

by ONTHEEDGE67 October 03, 2010
A subgenre of metal and hardcore that is kind of like communism. If it were to be done correctly, it would be perfect, but hardly anyone can do it right and therefore it is mainly horrible. There are some metalcore bands that I actually enjoy (The Dillinger Escape Plan, Hatebreed, Every Time I Die), but most of it (and certainly the most popular bands) incorporate pop punk, electronic, glam, crunk, and all sorts of other shit and make it sound worse than putting a cat in a blender. Not to mention deathcore, which is just an attempt to make an anti-metalcore genre, is even worse and brings shame to death metal. Another thing that humor's me with most metalcore is the bands claim to be the brutalist shit alive but they dress like a 12 year old scene girl.
Good metalcore: Every Time I Die, TDEP, Hatebreed, All That Remains (sort of), ect.
Bad metalcore: Bring me the Horizon, Of Mice and Men, Asking Alexandria, The Black Dahlia Murder, Chelsea Grin, ect.

by anthonyg1995 January 26, 2011
A watered-down form of melodic death metal, due to it's lack of keyboard, less brutal vocals, and overall shorter songs. Listened to by scenester kids, along with deathcore, who are ignorant to it's superior predecessor which originated in Sweden.
I used to listen to metalcore bands like All That Remains, August Burns Red, and As I Lay Dying, but now I listen to bands like Children of Bodom, Dark Tranquillity, and Mors Principium Est.

The Frontiers of Engineering program brings together through 2-1/2 day meetings a select group of emerging engineering leaders from industry, academe, and government labs to discuss pioneering technical work and leading edge research in various engineering fields and industry sectors. The goal of the meetings is to introduce these outstanding engineers (ages 30-45) to each other, and through this interaction facilitate collaboration in engineering, the transfer of new techniques and approaches across fields, and establishment of contacts among the next generation of engineering leaders.
I design materials that enable separation of specific molecules from a mixture, as well as catalysts that allow for the rapid and selective conversion of chemicals during chemical synthesis.
As busy engineers, we are fully immersed in our lives and jobs, often intensely focused in a narrow intellectual space. FOE provides an invigorating opportunity to learn about other areas where engineering is impacting modern society. Meeting other ambitious, successful engineers further encourages my own personal mission to change the world through my research.
My work is to apply computer vision, machine learning and pattern recognition techniques to build useful consumer electronics products.
FOE provides a valuable venue for researchers and engineers of academia, industry and research labs to discuss and understand the challenges of top engineering problems that have tremendous impact on society at large, and further more it provides opportunities for attendants to collaborate and contribute novel solutions to address those challenges. My knowledge scope is broadened by participating in the talks other than my own discipline, and it inspires me to think about the value of my work in a larger context when solving problems in my field.
My research lies at the intersections of structural engineering, probability and statistics, and seismology. I focus on earthquake risk assessment as wells as mitigation through building codes and other seismic standards.
The FOE symposium helped me think more about the fundamental challenges that my research addresses and gave me an opportunity to learn about other research areas tackling similar challenges, both during the symposium and afterwards during a week-long visit with one of its international organizers.
My focus is ligand-directed therapy and molecular imaging based on in vivo phage display technology. This work will lead to a comprehensive map of vascular markers in each organ, tissue, or disease and may result in a new pharmacology.
FOE is a unique channel for dissemination of multi-disciplinary engineering of the highest caliber. By promoting creative research and fostering interactions and integration of top investigators who might not otherwise overlap, FOE has and is likely to continue to greatly accelerate progress at the interface of engineering and medicine.
My work in opto-electronic devices and materials is broadly applicable to industries like renewable energies, communications, and consumer electronics – areas that can improve people's lives.
My experience with FOE was very rewarding because I was able to meet innovative and inspiring leaders in many different fields, which opened up new paths for collaboration.
My research group's focus is developing new approaches based on integrated optics to study the complex behavior of biological systems. This includes synthesizing new materials as well as inventing new devices and performing single- and few-cell studies.
The FOE symposium was a wonderful opportunity to meet researchers far outside of my own area of expertise. Several of these interactions have led to subsequent collaborations, and entirely new areas of research. for both of us. This type of truly immersive experience is really the only way to make these cross-disciplinary connections.

U.S. snowboarder Jamie Anderson took home gold Sunday in the inaugural appearance of women's slopestyle as an Olympic event.
Enni Rukajarvi of Finland took silver and Jenny Jones of Great Britain took bronze.
Anderson was out of medal contention going into the second of her two final runs, but landed two 720s in her run to score 95.25 and jump to the top of the standings. With only two snowboarders to come after her, her score held up for gold.
The competitors each took two runs in the finals, with the higher of the two scores counting.
Karly Shorr, a 19-year-old Michigan native and the only other American to make it through to the finals, finished in sixth place.
The event, one of 12 new events making their Olympic debut this year, has proved to be one of the most popular at the Winter X Games over the years. Slopestyle, which is also being introduced in Sochi with skiers, features a steep course with a series of challenging aerial stunts, ramps and rails.
With fellow American Sage Kotsenburg's gold medal in the men's snowboard slopestyle Saturday and Anderson's gold-medal run Sunday, the U.S. swept the inaugural events in snowboard slopestyle in Sochi.
Anderson, a 23-year-old California native, is competing in her first Olympics after earning eight X Games medals in her signature event over the course of nine years, including four golds. She became the youngest Winter X Games medalist when she won bronze in 2006 at age 15.
Ty Walker, Anderson's junior by seven years at 16-years-old and also competing in her first Olympics, failed to advance to the finals, falling in the second of her two semifinal runs earlier Sunday.
The New York native topped all U.S. women at the 2013 FIS World Snowboarding Championship, finishing fifth, but spent her Olympics dealing with multiple injuries suffered in practice last week.
Fellow American Jessika Jensen, a 22-year-old from Rigby, Idaho, also failed to make the finals in the slopestyle event.

Somali authorities detain three journalists and shutter radio station
Nairobi, August 21, 2014 -- The Committee to Protect Journalists is gravely concerned about the detention of three Shabelle Media Network journalists and the closure of their station. Security agents arrested 19 individuals at the network's offices in the capital Mogadishu on August 15, and removed the transmitters of Radio Shabelle and Sky FM, two stations in the Shabelle Media Network, according to news reports and local journalists.
All but three of those arrested were released from the Somali National Security Services in Mogadishu on August 17, news reports said. Mohamed Musa, general manager of the independent Shabelle Media Network, told CPJ that he and Mohamed Bashir, a producer, are currently in hiding, fearing potential arrest. He added that members of the public, who had been visiting the station at the time of the raid, were among those arrested.

Latest update : 2012-04-10
Bahrain: fears for life of jailed activist on hunger strike
Growing concern for a jailed Bahraini activist on hunger strike. Things turn sour for a Twitter campaign that started out with the best of intentions. And a Russian film maker takes us to the heart of the Moscow subway.
Bahrain: fears for life of jailed activist on hunger strike
Bahraini activist, Abdulhadi Al-Khawaja, has now been on hunger strike for over two months in protest of the life sentence he received for his role in the anti-government unrest that began last year.
And with Bahrain turning down a request to transfer Al-Khawaja, who also holds Danish citizenship, to Denmark, there is growing concern over his health which appears to be deteriorating.
His daughter Zainab was briefly arrested on two occasions last week as she tried to visit him. She eventually managed to speak to him on the telephone, and has posted a message on Twitter claiming her father is now having difficulty breathing, and he says he is being mistreated by security guards and staff at the military hospital where he is receiving care.
Shia opposition activists continue to stage protests against the ruling Sunni royal family, and are also rallying to the cause of Abdulhadi Al-Khawaja, hundreds of demonstrators waved pictures of him in towns and cities across Bahrain last Friday, calling for his release and demanding political reforms.
Protesters are now lobbying the International Automobile Federation to cancel the Bahrain Grand prix due to be held on the 22nd April. The race, which has always been a source of national pride was cancelled last year due to the uprising and ruthless repression.
#ToMyUnbornChild Twitter campaign sparks homophobic comments
Twitter represents a wonderful tool to get web users from all over the world involved in such and such a cause or campaign, Twitter is a space for expression, but it is not immune to hateful comments. The « #ToMyUnbornChild » Twitter campaign was launched mid -March, to begin with it received messages of love and warmth , but then a handful of web users started using the slogan to post homophobic comments.
The initial idea of the campaign was to get future parents to tweet a message to their unborn child. It all started off very well, with messages of hope, love, devotion pouring in from all over the world.
But the campaign was apparently not to everyone's liking, and things turned sour when certain micro bloggers decided to post tweets under the « #ToMyUnbornChild » hashtag, expressing hatred towards homosexuals. Offensive messages, in extremely poor taste, for the most part intentionally provocative and which have shocked the majority of the Twittersphere.
Many have posted reactions to the homophobic messages, condemning the outrageous content and calling for greater tolerance. Film maker Charlotte Moore is trying to convey the same message in this film which was posted online last week. She has actors taking on the roles of mums and dads-to-be and has asked them to speak the most hateful of the messages posted on Twitter as if they were talking to their unborn child. The film hopes to highlight just how destructive and violent this hate speech is, comments that some think are harmless as long as they remain virtual…
White House launches "Taxpayer Receipt" website
Last week the White House launched the "Taxpayer receipt" website so that American tax payers can go online, enter in their annual tax payment and see how, and in which service, their federal tax dollars are spent. So for an American whose tax bill comes to around 25 000 dollars; around one quarter of this sum goes towards National Defense, another quarter towards health care and most of the rest goes towards education and combatting unemployment.
Now trending on social networks
In addition to a huge poster campaign in the US and the UK, the marketing team for Skype is also promoting the online telephone service via Twitter, by criticizing the micro blogging site itself, and the lack of feeling or warmth in a tweet. They have been conducting this self-promotion under the hashtag « #itstimeforSkype », a somewhat novel strategy which is going down very well on the web.
Video of the day
A voyage into the heart of the Moscow subway… this video was uploaped by film maker Sasha Aleksandrov. Wonderfully put together, with perfect timing and rhythm, you can now see all the goings-on within the corridors of the Russian capital's underground system from the comfort of your own home…

Battle of the Golden Wood, The: 3. Into the Trees
"Do off your weapons." The voice was musical but chill, ageless with arrogance, and laden with an accent Oswy could barely understand. He spoke slowly, as if unfamiliar with Westron, and that was good, for Oswy's knowledge of the language was also slight.
"I do not..." Anger woke in Oswy's heart. He was lord now - albeit lord of a sacked village, leader of children - but his father had given him this sword with his last strength and he was loath to easily part with it.
"Oswy, please!" Leofwyn knelt over Cyn protectively, and looked up with resignation. Mindful of her son's dignity she spoke in Rohirric so that the creature who watched their quarrel could at least not understand the words. "He could slay you where you stand. For your bondsman's sake do not anger him."
"He is but one!"
"And that is enough."
Oswy held her gaze for a while, wondering at how small a step it was to go from mother to councillor, but he could not endure the steady regard long. She was right. Sighing, he put the sword and his long knife down on the grass in front of the creature's feet.
"The Man's sword also."
Feeling utterly humiliated, Oswy tugged Cyn's blade from its scabbard and placed it with the rest. When he had done so, the archer stepped forward, pinning the weapons under one lightly shod foot. Sunlight filtered through the boughs of the ancient cherries and there was silence for a second, and then a clamour, very close, of orc voices, yelling in agony and fury. Slipping into dreams, Cyn cried out in answer, something of the pain in those screams calling to him. Already his brow was damp with sweat and his face sunken.
The creature - elf, it must be, Oswy thought - did not stir at the sounds. The stillness in it was like that of the trees. With another Man, even an enemy, Oswy would have begged for help, asked for succour for his wounded. But tales spoke chillingly of the mercy of the Golden Wood. Few were allowed in, and fewer returned, and of those none were unscathed; wrought strange by whatever power dwelt within. There was nothing the elves might bestow that it was good for a mortal man to receive.
But Gytha did not remember the tales. With a child's desperation and innocence she ran up to the elf and took two handfuls of his cloak, looking up beseechingly. "Please help us! Please help my daddy!"
The elf's aim had not once wavered from Oswy's face, but now the hooded head tilted, as if listening, and then he took the arrow from the string and replaced it in its quiver. He slung the bow on his back and crouched down, face to face with the little girl. "Boe adar lin dartha i Hîr a Hîril beth," he said, and taking down his hood he showed a face fairer than that of mortal man, with long dark hair and eyes like starlit steel, "Be boe ammen." But he smiled at the child as if she was a rare flower.
His expression was distantly kind as he turned back to Oswy. "I am Erethôn, march-warden of Lorien. You will come with me."
"And if I chose not to?" At the high-handed treatment, Oswy's anger flared again and he clenched his fists, thinking that perhaps he could yet fight the creature hand to hand. It was tall, but did not look sturdy. In the corner of his eye, he was aware of a change in the texture of the light - a swift falling of shadows too patterned to be the movement of leaves, and when next he looked three other elves stood in a circle around their small group, bows drawn.
"That choice is not yours," said Erethôn coldly, "The orcs who pursued you have been slain. Yet I deem you to have news the Lord and Lady must hear. Therefore you will come." He picked up Oswy's weapons and passed them to one of his silent companions. Then he whistled and all three horses trotted up to him as if they had been raised by him from foals.
"Come, Oswy," Leofwyn's voice broke into his feeling of betrayal and doom, "What cannot be cured must be endured. Help me set Cyn on a steed."
It was, by the angle of the sun, but an hour after noon, when Oswy looked back in the direction of the free fields of Rohan once more, and with a heavy heart bid them farewell. He did not imagine that he would ever see them again; not at least as a free man, in possession of his own spirit. He wondered once more whether it might not have been better had they thrown themselves into Anduin and so met a clean death, but for Cyn's sake, and for the sake of his daughter, he did not now try to attack the elf who lead them, knowing that while death might release him, it would leave the children all the more unprotected.
Even discounting their strange guide the path was disquieting. Oswy was used to the open plains, to sky overhead and views for miles. Here among the trees he felt hemmed in. There could be enemies on every side, waiting in ambush, and he could not see them. The air was still, yet sometimes a breeze would wander like a sinuous brook through the quiet, and bring the smell of flowers unknown to Man. Then the canopies of the trees tossed with a noise like the sea, and light fluttered dizzying over his head, and he felt more removed from the world at every step, haunted by the sweetness of days and places he had never seen; ages long ago gone to dust.
As their journey progressed the feeling waxed, until all things became touched with awe and fear, and he perceived each raindrop on the end of a twig as a diamond and each blade of grass as a new creation, each shade of green a new colour, each shape a reason for wonder. There was a power resting over the whole land like the golden light in Autumn just before a storm, and under that power all things were revealed as stainless and full of glory. He found himself asking if perhaps this holiness was not in fact the truth. The truth that underlay all. A truth that sometimes Men were simply too busy to notice.
The ground fell away into a thickly wooded combe, like a vast bowl. At its lip they paused, and Oswy looked out, seeing, far off, a mighty hill crowned with towering trees, their stems of silver garlanded with blossom radiant as gold. It was from them that the unearthly scent flowed, and at the sight of them he felt freed of something, as though a burden he did not know he had been carrying had been set down.
"What is it?" he said to himself, "What do I feel?"
Erethôn smiled again his small smile. His slender hand reached up to steady Cyn in the saddle. "You feel the power of the Lady of the Wood," he said.
And Oswy cursed. He had not, after all, reached some understanding of the nature of purity. He had merely been ensorcelled by the temptress in the centre of the web. Deeply ashamed, he bit his cheek until the blood ran, determined not to be so weak again.
Thy father must await the will of our Lord and Lady,
As must we. (Lit: It is necessary also for us.)

Take two-they're small. And they perform miracles. Suffering a career-ending, potentially crippling injury to her back and right leg, a young dancer named Elaine Petrone tried everyone from orthopedists to yogis to turn her pain and prognosis a......more
Take two-they're small. And they perform miracles. Suffering a career-ending, potentially crippling injury to her back and right leg, a young dancer named Elaine Petrone tried everyone from orthopedists to yogis to turn her pain and prognosis around. Nothing worked-until she healed herself through a unique program of therapy and exercise based around the use of two small, squishy balls. From there she turned her passion into a mission that is helping the thousands of people who visit her classes conquer pain, stress, and injury.
Now, for relief for sufferers everywhere, comes The Miracle Ball Method, a healing kit containing two miracle balls and a fully illustrated book, all packaged together in an attention-getting clear plastic cylinder. The work itself is simple. Take a sore back: By resting your aching back on the grapefruit-sized balls and letting your body sink into them, you're unworking the muscles that hurt. Pain and tension drain out of the body. Petrone shows how proper breathing (which she demonstrates) works in conjunction with a range of unexercises that call for placing the balls under the back, head, knees, hip, elbow-wherever there's pain-and then resting, rolling, or rotating on them. She points out that relief can come in surprising ways: Lower back pain may be helped by placing the ball under your neck, or a bad knee might be helped by hip work. It's a revolutionary program of relief, from head to toe.
I am an instructor for a gentle yoga class. We are using the Miracle Ball during our final relaxation. Those clients with back issues swear by the ball. One client travels extensively and he carries the balls in his luggage for use at the hotel. He informs me that his back is now virtually pain free. Other clients who spend a lot of their day driving also love the Miracle Ball. I highly recommend the Miracle Ball to anyone who may have back issues. The book is useful when starting out but one can quicly modify and adapt to ones own body needs.
I love the miracle balls, my husband loves them to. I have fibromyalgia and they help greatly.
This book/kit is a wonderful way to relax your body, breath and mind. Using the balls you learn to place them under your calves (etc..) and release the muscles, joint and free up tension stored within. You begin to realize how much tension we carry in our bodies and get rid of it with the ball workout. After hours of sitting and not stretching or exercising, I found that just 10 minutes on these balls, created intense release and freedom in my entire body. This is a wonderful introduction to using small balls to stretch and relax and exercise. Yamuna Bodyrolling is another great system. Both work extremely well together. However, for the small price, this kit (balls and book) is a winning gift to yourself and your loved ones. They can only thank you for it!
I have been using similar things in Physical Therapy. They really help align the hips. Use them daily you will feel and see a difference.
Great item. Really are miracle balls! Your muscles release their tension as you lie on them. Very good for people with any back and/or muscle pain. Great for people with fibromyalgia.
Discovered these on a ski trip after a couple days of being sore. My cousin had brought the miracle balls they helped relive a lot if the pain in my back and shoulders! I ordered a set sp they'd be there one i was home and user them regularly now! The book provides detailed information about the best placement for the areas you want to help. Love the balls and would highly recommend!
I use this every day and love it! It is so easy! I really have had more energy and felt so much better since I have been using these. Everyone should try these out. I usually use them in the evening before bed. I am so glad I found them. The price is nice too!
This was recommended by a friend and it was exactly as stated. Works well for back pain
My massage therapist thought that these would help with neck and headache issues. They are fantastic! They are easy to use, and they help relieve a lot of pain. The booklet that comes with them explains the method very well.
Haven't had them long enough to really know if they do what's claimed. It is very relaxing to lie with them under your back....and does seem to relieve some tension.

Takes of the extended instrumental workouts "Midnight" and "Trash Man" were the most promising songs to emerge from these early April 1969 Olmstead sessions.
"Midnight" had begun to take form two months earlier at the February 1969 sessions at Olympic Studios. The song was originally titled "Midnight Lightning" before Jimi shortened it simply to "Midnight". "Midnight" is now available as part of the 1998 album South Saturn Delta.
A heavily truncated version of "Trash Man", filled out with posthumously recorded overdubs, was issued part of the controversial [and long since deleted] 1975 album Midnight Lightning.

Ask the Half MD: Are there any jobs for M.D.'s that don't want to practice medicine?
Every year about this time, medical students at all levels of their training begin questioning if they've made the right decision in life by pursuing an M.D. Whether this issue arises as a result of the first bad grade received on an exam or it comes from looming uncertainty of becoming a clinician for 20+ years, many students will eventually wonder if they can pursue careers outside of medicine.
Unfortunately, I can't imagine many reasons for employers to seek physicians on any other grounds other than their medical acumen. While the C.I.A. is looking for health analysts, similar jobs are hard to come by. By its very nature, medical school is designed to give professional training for a occupation with a narrow focus. If it trained any more broadly, we'd call it business school and give everyone an M.B.A.
Sure, we can point to famous physicians such as Sanjay Gupta, Michael Crichton, and Howard Dean, but none of them really needed a medical degree to pursue their current careers. Gupta is merely a reporter; Crichton is a science fiction writer; and Dean long gave up anything remotely related to health or science. If anything, these men took on needless amounts of debt and schooling only to keep someone else from that spot in the applicant pool from becoming a real clinician.
Some readers will bring up the idea of health managers—hospital and health plan directors who don't see patients, but still need some amount of medical knowledge before setting up shop. My answer to this objection is to look at the ages and resumes of these administrators. Many of the M.D.'s started off in practice and gained experience before transitioning over to leadership roles. Further, the field is full of managers with no firsthand healthcare skills. Duke University offers a degree in health sector management without any requirements of prior medical training. You don't necessarily need to be a doctor to know how to lead other physicians. And given how poorly medical schools and residency programs are already run, I'm glad that others realize that having doctors in charge is a bad idea.
I realize that the thought of seeing sick patients for the rest of your life can seem unflattering. I also realize that there are warrant fears of getting sued, getting sick, or losing out on family time. However, anyone thinking of applying to medical school needs to understand what this life entails. The blogosphere is full of horror stories of medical training and practice simply because many of the things we experience are so painful. If you're still in the pre-med phase, take a while to evaluate what an M.D. really means to you. You can certainly find other ways to gain money and respect without taking this route. If you're already in medical school or residency, things get trickier. While Hoover was willing to leave, others may not be willing to make the same move so early. I've already seen so many classmates regret the choices they made in coming to medical school. Getting accepted is difficult enough; being able to admit to such a mistake is even harder.

hmmm, the CIA…
actually, you are wrong about gupta and dean. dean practiced medicine until he became governor. reasonable in my estimation. dr gupta still practices neurosurgery at emory university in atlanta.
Immy said,
The last paragraph sent shivers down my spine!!!!
As someone who has just left medical school in their 4th year, I only wished I had read other peoples experiences earlier. I knew from about the middle of the first year, a career in medicine was not for me but it took me 3 years to get the courage to leave. I had this delusion that I was the only person who wasn't excited by the entire experience that is medical school!! All I have got to say is medicine is a great career but only if you really want it……And you have really got to want it to get back what you put in (if that makes any sense).
Thanks Half MD, I have been reading your blog for a while now and continue even after leaving medical school, bizarrely it still inspires me just as much.
Jon said,
But did the MD give them the credibility to get to where the got? Did it act as the first stepping stone?
Craig said,
It's interesting to read the poor me attitudes of people in medical school who really aren't sure they want to be there… It's unfortunate they didn't have the opportunity to work in a warehouse, construction site, factory or many other places, wondering if their services would be required a few months from now. I'm amazed at how such "brilliant" people were allowed into the system in the first place?
Ben H. said,
There are many things I did learn in medical school and residency. What I did not learn, however, may have the greatest impact on my day-to-day as a practicing physician. One thing I wish I had known before was the extent to which student loans would effect my post-school life. I am not asking for sympathy, but a little education on student loans before medical school would have been nice. Seems this problem is only getting worse. One basically has to take out a mortgage (for a nice home, too) to pay for medical school. Physicians are no longer independent small business people. The larger health systems have taken over making it very difficult to simply hang out your shingle and be your own boss. Some may not want to run the show. I was one of those who wanted to be an employed physician and be left to serve my patients. I traded independence for being managed by bean-counters, none of whom have any medical knowledge. My ability to suffer these fools had been depleted. Only one problem, there are precious few jobs available in areas most people would want to live. You could go off and work deep in the mountains of NC or middle-of-nowhere Montana. Salary for such positions would be generous, but you would be the only doc for hours in every direction and would be on call practically all the time. Not a very sustainable situation. Would I do it all again? I love my patients, I feel the work I do does matter in their lives (especially the refugee and immigrant families we serve), but my clinic is in disarray and is constantly hemorrhaging money. If I could go back, I would likely choose a different path.

I have no intention to practice medicine. Just seem to know way more about oncology than those who practice in NM.

Harold Everett Woodson
In honor if his request, there will be no services for Harold Everett.
Woodson, known fondly as "Woody," age 92, resident of Bishop for 38 years, passed away Aug. 25, 2011 at the Bishop Care Center after greeting one of the staff with a "Good Morning." Woody was born July 22, 1919 in Hampton, Iowa to the late Loretta Hagan and Everett Woodson, the third of six children. The family moved to Ladonia, Mo. in 1922.
He graduated from Ladonia Public High School in 1937, migrated to Michigan where he met and married the late Virginia Mary Stierle on Jan. 31, 1941. Woody served in the United States Army from May of 1943 to February of 1946, in Honolulu and Okinawa. When he returned, he worked as a service grinder operator, and later worked for Krogers Grocery Store in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Woody and Virginia moved to Long Beach in 1952 and in 1959 Woody began his 24 year career with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). He transferred to Bishop in 1973, retired as a traffic controller in 1982.
They enjoyed traveling, bowling, making crafts together and were members of The Merry Melody Makers, entertaining a the nursing homes in Inyo County until Virginia's death in 1997. Woody married fellow Melody Maker, Helene A. Newton, on Jan. 29, 2000, and they continued to travel the country, dance, sing and enjoy the casinos for a few years.
Woody was quite an independent boy. He ran away at the age of 12, was brought back home and left again at age 14. He traveled the country by hopping trains, hitching rides and walking, doing any kind of work he could find, including picking crops in the fields of California. He promised his mother he would finish school, so he would study during the school year, but when the term was over he was back on the road again.
After graduating, Woody, who wasn't much for working inside, left to follow the wheat harvest from Oklahoma to the Canadian border. It's no wonder he ended up working on the roads. Woody was one of those unforgettable characters, always a grin on his face, a wink, a smile, hugs for the ladies, quick to laugh and make everyone smile. He had many stories to tell and songs to sing. His family is thankful for his devotion and care to Virginia and Helene when they could no longer care for themselves.
He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Helene Woodson; three sisters; and a brother.
He is survived by his stepdaughter and son-in-law, Kiki and David Moore of Big Pine; stepdaughter, Li Newton; stepsons, Terry and Jim Newton; sister, Claretta Fennewald of Hartford, Ill.;sisters-in-law, Joan Chambers and Lucille Campau; five grandchildren; six great-grandchildren; and many nieces, nephews and in-laws.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Eastern Sierra Friendship Center, 205 N. Fowler St., Bishop, CA 93514.

(CNN) — While the Internal Revenue Service maintains it was not focusing on conservative groups out of political bias, Sen. Rand Paul claimed Sunday there was a "written policy" floating around the agency that said IRS officials were "targeting people who were opposed to the president."
"And when that comes forward, we need to know who wrote the policy and who approved the policy," the Republican senator from Kentucky said on CNN's "State of the Union."
Pressed for more precise details about the memo he was referring to, Paul said he hasn't seen such a policy statement but has heard about it.
"Well, we keep hearing the reports and we have several specifically worded items saying who was being targeted. In fact, one of the bullet points says those who are critical of the president. So I don't know if that comes from a policy, but that's what's being reported in the press and reported orally," he told CNN's chief political correspondent Candy Crowley. "I haven't seen a policy statement, but I think we need to see that."
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell also said the IRS targeting was an example of the administration punishing its opponents.
"There is a culture of intimidation throughout the administration," he said Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press."
While he admitted that all the facts were not yet known, he argued an attitude of "government knows best" seems to permeate.
"The nanny state is here to tell us all what to do and if you start criticizing, you get targeted," he said.
Appearing before a congressional committee Friday, IRS officials said a large increase in workload, rather than deliberate targeting, led to "foolish mistakes" and the political discrimination cited by the inspector general's report last week.
Numerous conservative groups said they faced heavy scrutiny and lengthy questionnaires in the past few years as they attempted to get tax-exempt status. The IRS admitted earlier this month it made mistakes, saying its office in Ohio that processed tax-exempt applications began singling out groups whose names included "tea party" and "patriot" for further review.
The actions have spurred criticism from both parties in Congress and President Barack Obama. A new CNN/ORC International survey released Sunday indicated that 71% of Americans find the targeting unacceptable.
Two IRS officials have announced they'll leave their posts, and more current and former IRS higher-ups are slated to appear for congressional hearings this week.
But Paul argued more people needed to be let go, saying the Obama administration didn't do enough in disciplining officials after the terror attack against a U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, in September.
"Why does Benghazi go on? No one was ever fired. So people made tragic errors - no one's accepting responsibility and no one was fired," he said.
Four State Department officials, however, were disciplined in December, with one resigning and three being placed on administrative leave and relieved of their duties. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton repeatedly said she accepts ultimate responsibility for the safety and security of U.S. diplomats abroad.
Paul, however, stood by his charge that Clinton demonstrated a "dereliction of duty" by not reading diplomatic cables requesting more security at the Benghazi post.
"She should have resigned and accepted blame for it," he said Sunday.
A potential 2016 contender for the Republican presidential nomination, Paul has taken his attacks against Clinton on the road in battleground states. He plans to make a trip to New Hampshire, the first-in-the-nation primary state, on Monday.
Asked if he was politicizing the controversy, Paul said he brings up the topic "in every state and every stop because I think it's pretty important for her to accept blame for not providing security."

Honorary Award of SoundTrack_Cologne 10 for Manfred Eicher
Manfred Eicher is to receive the Honorary Award of SoundTrack_Cologne, an annual conference on music and sound in film and other media, now in its tenth year.
From the very outset Eicher saw himself as a recording producer who played an active role in the musical events in the studio, SoundTrack_Colognes organizers note in a press statement. More than 1.600 albums were produced in this way among others, ones with contemporary composers such as Arvo Pärt, György Kurtág, Alfred Schnittke, Heinz Holliger, Steve Reich or John Adams. The multiple Grammy-Award-winner also took on the music production for films of Godard, Angelopoulos, Xavier Koller and Sandra Nettelbeck.
Earlier winners of the award have included Michael Nyman, Christian Bruhn, Irmin Schmidt and Peter Thomas. On Saturday November 23 at 2:30 pm, Manfred Eicher will be present for a discussion with the Cologne audience at the Kölnischer Kunstverein. At 4:30 pm, following the discussion, there will be a screening of Sounds and Silence, the documentary by Peter Guyer and Norbert Wiedmer which follows Eicher on his journeys to recording sessions around the globe.
