Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend.

The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

Overwintering outdoor-grown amaryllis
I am currently growing several dozen of what I believe to be Johnson's amaryllis outdoors in a couple different locations. I have some planted in the ground in a newly installed garden I put in this past spring. I have some others that I used as foliage accent plants over the summer after the blooms faded in half whiskey barrel planters.
I am confident that the ones in the ground will survive the winter since the ground does not freeze deeper than the top inch or two here. The foliage was killed back by the first frost of the season this week though. The ones in the half whiskey barrel were also killed back. I was afraid that those bulbs might be freeze killed over the winter though. So I dug them up, cleaned them off, cut the roots back a bit, and put them in an open air plastic plant pot in the garage where it will be dark, cool, and dry over the winter.
Was this the correct course of action?
I have no intention of forcing these to bloom indoors. I want to plant them back outdoors in containers in the spring and I would like them to bloom then.
So what have I done, and what should I do?

Presidents, government ministers and religious leaders from around the world gathered in Vienna on Monday Nov. 26 for the gala launch of the King Abdullah Center for Interreligious and Intercultural Dialogue.
While Austria and Spain joined Saudi Arabia in establishing the center, it originated in a bold initiative by Saudi King Abdullah. Some years ago, the king convened representatives from all segments of the Muslim world in Mecca to support his call for Islam to engage the other world religions in addressing the social, scientific, and global challenges of our times.
He followed this up with an interfaith conference in Madrid co-hosted with King Juan Carlos of Spain and subsequently brought his initiative to the United Nations in 2008, hosting a gathering of world political leaders that included Israeli President Shimon Peres.
It was naturally vital for Abdullah to enlist the leading institutions of the Christian world — in particular the Vatican — as partners in founding the interfaith center. But this raised skepticism about the project. It was surely incongruous, to say the least, for Christian leaders to cooperate with the Saudis in an interfaith center, when their communities are not allowed to openly worship, let alone build churches in Saudi Arabia.
However, Christian leaders decided that they needed to be involved in this project for that very reason. In addition to working to ensure that religion is a source of blessing and not abused for conflict and violence, the center also addresses the reality that societies have their various and differing internal educational challenges.
The Saudi monarch and his ministers have declared that change in their country will not come through confrontation. Rather, the more its leaders, scholars, and representatives are seen to be engaged in respectful cooperation with other religions, the more open and understanding Saudi society will become in relation to those other religions.
In fact, the Saudi leadership pointed to changes that Abdullah had introduced since coming to the throne in education, the status of women,and in the creation of a center to promote dialogue and respect for diversity inside Saudi Arabia.
Another major source of concern was how independent this center would be. That's why the center was established by the three equal national partners as an international organization under Austrian law. Its directorship is constitutionally managed by a nine-member board — three Christians (representing the Vatican, the Ecumenical Orthodox Patriarchate, and the archbishop of Canterbury), three prominent Muslim scholars (two Sunni and one Shiite), one Jew, one Hindu, and one Buddhist.
There will also be an international Advisory Forum that will provide voices for the faith communities and parts of the globe that are not represented on the board. The forum is also responsible for determining the projects and activities of the center. Together, the founding parties, the board, and the forum guarantee the independence of the center. In fact, it was the multifaith board that determined that the center be named after King Abdullah.
What makes this interfaith initiative so special is not just that it has been established by three governments or that it has a multifaith board. Rather, it is the fact that this initiative has come from the very heart of the Muslim world — from the custodian of the two holiest shrines of Islam. This gives it a unique standing and, hopefully, the potential to contribute globally.
While the center seeks to be a hub for interfaith work internationally and to provide state-of-the-art technology to help empower this work, it also explicitly seeks to address situations where religion is abused and exploited for violence and conflict, and to ensure that religion is part of the solution rather than part of the problem.
In the end, "the proof of the pudding is in the eating," and time will tell whether this venture lives up to its expectations. Nonetheless, this initiative provides a remarkable opportunity. Skepticism here is not misplaced, but it must not lead us to spurn the outstretched hand. To do that would be to allow distrust to vanquish hope, good will, and the possibility of constructive change for the good of society as a whole.
Rabbi David Rosen, the international director of interreligious affairs for the American Jewish Committee, is the Jewish member of the board of directors for the King Abdullah Center for Interreligious and Intercultural Dialogue. Via RNS [7].

Theory and Reality: Arizona's Tax Structure Marshall J. Vest Eller College of Business Q: Desirable Properties If you had a blank sheet of paper – if you could start over – what criteria would you use to design the state's tax system? Principles of Taxation Governing magazine, Febr. '03, The Way We Tax: A 50-State Report – Adequacy – Fairness – Management Principles of Taxation Adequacy – Generates enough money (both short and long term) – Responds to structural changes in the economy – Stable • Well balanced • Multiple sources – Competitive • Doesn't deviate from other states Principles of Taxation Adequacy Fairness – Similar taxpayers are treated equally – Taxpayers with greater ability to pay should pay more – avoid "regressive" structure – Minimal effect on economic decisions • Low rates, broad base • Minimize exemptions, which are distortionary Principles of Taxation Adequacy Fairness Management – Accountability – simple, understandable, visible – Economical – low administrative & compliance costs • High voluntary compliance rates Four-Star Rating System - not perfect, but stands out from the pack - room for improvement but doing well - state could continue to function, but clear elements that could benefit from change - needs dramatic reform Arizona's Rankings – 2 Stars Adequacy Fairness Management Analysis for Arizona Editors note: – $1 bill in tax cuts enacted since early 90's – Alternative fuel tax rebate that cost rainy day fund • Approx. $200 mill – System more reliant on sales tax – "Arizonan's have a visceral hatred of almost any new tax or higher tax" – Voter initiative to require 2/3rds super majority to raise taxes – DOR's outdated technologies Major Types of Taxes Three-Legged Stool: – Consumption • Sales & use (transactions) – Income • Individual and corporate – Wealth • Real & personal property • Estate tax • Vehicle license tax Each Tax Has Its Shortcomings Consumption – "relying on the sales tax is like riding a horse that is rapidly dying" – Today, we buy fewer products and more services – Growth in Internet sales (difficult to collect tax due) – No standardization across jurisdictions – Hits low income households harder Each Tax Has Its Shortcomings Property taxes – Incredibly unpopular, large noticeable lumps – Can be unfair if valuations not consistent – Personal property tax (business equipment) hurts competiveness – Can hurt fixed income-elderly – Heavily used by schools and counties – Erosion of base • Enterprise zones • "Special deals" (recruitment, valuation methods) Each Tax Has Its Shortcomings Income taxes – "Corporate income taxes belong on the endangered species list" – Apportionment formulas – Hard to collect • Holding companies can shift income to subsidiaries in other states to avoid tax – Popular financial incentive tool for recruiting new firms Each Tax Has Its Shortcomings Income taxes – Individual income taxes second only to property tax as the most hated – Most of tax cuts during 1990s were here – Treats different kinds of income differently • Capital gains vs. wage income Estate tax -- limits are increasing Two Fundamental Rules of Basic Finance Do not pay for ongoing expenses with one- time revenues Do not cut taxes permanently in response to transitory surges in revenues Golden Rule of Tax Equity Collect the lowest possible rates on the widest possible base of taxpayers Who Pays? Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy study of distributional aspects of tax systems in all 50 states "…most state and local tax systems take a much greater share of income from middle- and low-income families than from the wealthy… most state tax systems are regressive." Fairness and ability to pay Who Pays? "Most states tax the wealthy at rates that are much lower than the rates on middle- and low-income families." "…changes in state and local taxes over the past decade have made state tax systems even more regressive." State & Local Taxes in 2002, AZ State & Local Taxes in 2002, AZ Income Income Property Property Sales & Excise Sales & Excise 14 14 12 12 10 8 % % 6 6 4 4 2 2 0 0 lowest second middle fourth next next top 1% lowest 20% second middle 20% 20% fourth 20% next 15% next 4% top 1% 20% 20% 20% 20% 15% 4% AZ Findings From "Who Pays?" AZ imposes one of the highest overall tax burdens on the poor (bottom 20%) – 12.5% effective rate is 7th highest nationally – 2nd among western states (WA is 1st) Tax burden on top 1% (4.9%) ranks 33rd AZ's poor pay an effective tax rate that is 2.5 times that paid by the top 1% What About Retirees? Kiplinger's Retirement Planning 2002 – Affluent retired couple with HH income of $60,000 – AZ (PHX) ranks 17th lowest among 51 places with an effective tax rate of 4.9% of income • 5th lowest in the West – Paid all of $479 income taxes to AZ, 18% below national average – Source: Public Finance in Arizona, ASU How to Offset Regressivity Utilize the income tax with a graduated tax structure and shift tax mix toward income Utilize "means-tested credits" – "Earned income tax credits (EITC)" – Personal and dependent exemptions – Large "zero bracket" or standard deduction – Elderly, low income & renters property tax credit, homestead exemptions, "circuit breakers" Continue to tax capital gains Exempt groceries from sales tax Minimize the use of "excise taxes" Did AZ Spend Too Much? Cato Institute study, States Face Fiscal Crunch after 1990s Spending Spree – Concludes that states spent too much when revenues were strong – Advocates an expenditure limitation capped by the sum of growth in population and inflation – BUT, this doesn't apply to AZ • from 1990-2001, AZ's tax revenue grew by 93%, population and inflation by 96% Public Finance in Arizona Source: ASU College of Business "As a percent of personal income, revenues currently are the lowest since records began in FY 1971" The combined tax burden in AZ is below the national average… between 11 and 17%…and has dropped considerably since the early 1990s" "Per capita spending on operations in FY 2000 was 5th lowest, 19% below average" Reasons for Current Deficits Tax cuts and narrowing of tax base – Since 1993, taxes were cut by $1.2 billion • One-third of taxes collected in FY 92 • Adjusting for inflation and population growth, $1.8 billion per year no longer being collected – Property tax eliminated in 1996 – $267 million – Sales tax exemptions of $284 million Reasons for Current Deficits Tax cuts and narrowing of tax base – Reductions in income taxes • Individual - $870 million per year • Corporate - $121 million per year – Current income tax credits • Individual - $200 million per year • Corporate - $100 million per year Reasons for Current Deficits Tax cuts and narrowing of tax base – "Other taxes - $237 million • (VLT, insurance premium, etc) Failure to adequately fund "BSF" Growth in demand for government Conclusions Adequacy and fairness of AZ's tax system were significantly compromised during the past decade Taxation Theory and Reality "There is probably no other field in which the distance between academic theory and what really happens on the street is so enormous." – Governing magazine

Saints Row: The Third
Is there a way to make your homies drive vehicles for you?
I only able to did it once. I had Shaundi & 2 regular homies when i receive a survival call. I marked the place and got on a car and to my surprise, Shaundi drove the car instead of me. After that, i got off the car and got back on, this time i drove the car. I don't know how i did that. If someone knows how to do it, please tell me.
I've never been able to get them to drive for me. I'd love to have that happen, as it's fun riding shotgun and being able to play with my guns while someone else keeps the car on the road.
Are today's games made for 1 armed, drunken kids with downs-syndrome? - krazy168
The politically correct term is "casual gamer" - wubikens
After reading this topic i made some testing myself and found this bug:
First make sure you have more than one followers.
While getting inside of a car with only 2 seats, if you roll(sprint+jump) just after you open the door of the car
one of your followers might get in the closest car to him.
If you get in his car before he gets out, you will enter the passenger seat and he will drive around randomly for a random period of time, eventually everyone in the car will get out.
It works with homies, couldn't do it with Shaundi, didn't tried other followers.
Saints Row 4 should let you GPS something and then have a homie drive to it. That said unless it's scripted it looks like you're driving yourself there in this game.
"I swear by my life, and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine."

Personal Wine was founded in late 1999 by Alex Andrawes and Aaron Bulkley, two college friends with a love of wine, wine bottle labels and finer foods. With little more than a dream and $10,000 in savings, Alex and Aaron started out by soaking wine bottles in bathtubs to remove the original wine labels. With blank bottles at the ready, they would then add a custom label to each bottle by hand.
Fifteen years later, we may have a more advanced operation, but our commitment to providing high-quality personalized wine gifts and excellent customer service remain central to our purpose.
We pride ourselves on providing an unmatched level of customer service, so if you're in need of a little help, don't hesitate to contact us. We're always around to lend a hand when you need it.

All the Colors of the Marker Set is rated out of 5 by 9.
Rated 5 out of 5 by nana16 from Neat and tidy This is a very nice set. I choose these markers for my grandchildren partly because there will be fewer arguments over colors since there are two of each and many to choose from, and partly because of the nice case. It's much easier to teach children how to keep something neat and organized with the proper tools.

Rated 5 out of 5 by amanda243 from the best markers I love so many things about these markers. I love that there are 2 of every color, so when both kids want a red marker, both kids can have a red marker. I love that they are organized so beautifully, and there is a place for every marker (rather than just throwing them in a bag). I love that it bends in half so that I can tuck it away or transport it somewhere. The size of the markers are perfect--not too long and not too short. And it is a great price, considering how many markers you get!

Rated 5 out of 5 by vvdyer from Marker Set We received this marker set from a friend for my daughters birthday. We love it! I love it, the packaging is fun, but all of the color options are excellent! We got our set of markers over a year ago and I just went in a few weeks ago during the 15% sale and couldn't help buy 6 more to keep for presents. I love giving presents that encourage creativity. I know as a parent I don't need more toys for my kids, but you can never have too many marker!

Rated 5 out of 5 by sherry1285 from Marker set is Great! I bought this marker set for my 4 & 9 year old to have for crafts they do! They were perfect size for little hands, and so many colors in the pack, no matter what color they wanted, it was in there!. loved the holder for them to store them in also! couldnt have gotten a better buy anywhere else!

Rated 5 out of 5 by mialotus from Favorite Gift from Santa Santa brought this to my son last Christmas and 9 months later he still LOVES it. He is fascinated with the color wheel possibilities. Whenever we draw together I get one side and he gets the other. We put the markers back in their spaces to make a beautiful rainbow when we're finished. The markers have retained their vibrant colors and strong tips. A great investment for a budding artist!

Found a home and very happy with nearly everything, but feel that in current economy I have additional bargaining power. Home has been on market and vacant nearly a year and wondering if 10% under list would be considered an insulting first offer.
Answers (4)
while i appreciate the revisit, 6 months later...that was broadly unhelpful, thank you so much
It really depends on the listing price, check the comps in the area to see what recent sales prices are.
I agree with Pasa. Offer between 40 to 50% off. Worst that can happen is that the bank says no.
If it has been on the market for almost 1 year, that is way too much too be offering. It should be closer to 40% off of list price, especially in that area.

A steady, light rain slicked the roads and gusty winds across the plains tried hard to shove the car off the highway. We arrived in Sioux Falls behind schedule and dropped off the car. We found a hotel, camping completely out of the question for this princess. Grabbed a coffee and relaxed the rest of the night. The Sioux Falls are very ...

I have been using this powder for quite a while..though haven't noticed any good or bad effects.
Posted by Reviewer1159228 on Jul 05, 2013
got this thinking i'd use it more; end up using it as a mattifier over mineral makeup late in the day to control shine, and its okay for that, though I feel maybe it's not right for my skin-type
works well
Posted by 5434337498376132884 on Jul 28, 2013
It works well, but the size is soooo tiny! Plus, it's very hard to use. To apply it one needs a smaller size brush. And it is still hard to get it out from the package without losing some. Which is not ok, because it's not cheap at all.

Yes, I will pause posting. Instead of doing even more graphics, I would like to go deeper. 512 graphics is a lot of material and some ideas demand more attention and want to go elsewhere, on paper, shirts and how-knows. The about page, the shops, my website, they are in dire need for some cleaning up. With the normal schedule, this will never happen. So far, I will not make any commitment of when I will start posting again, but I'm pretty sure I will. The current idea is to produce more Geometry Dailies behind the scenes and then publish them again in a daily fashion in "seasons", like in tv series. Let's see what the future brings! Any news related to Geometry Daily will of course be posted on this tumblr and the facebook page. For everything else please follow @Tilman on Twitter and have a look at my old creaky blog tilman.me. I know for some this is a bit of a shock, sorry! Maybe get a silkscreen print, a digital print or a shirt to fill the void? You are a great audience, thank you all very much for following.! Love & Geometry! Tilman.

Dutch artist Levi van Veluw's installation "Family" depicts five people sitting at a table in a room, where everything and everyone is covered in 20,000 wooden blocks.
