Interdisciplinary Interactions
February has been a busy but exciting month for me. I have agreed to a few speaking engagement and have found all of them to be worthwhile and stimulating. I spoke about my research on the Enforceability of Exacted Conservation Easements at the Albany Junior Scholar Workshop (and will be speaking on it again at the upcoming ALPS Annual Meeting). I also presented my research on Tribal Conservation Easements at the Buffalo Junior Faculty Forum (and will be speaking at it again at the upcoming Tribes, Land, and the Environment Conference at American University). I wrote earlier about how helpful I find junior faculty events and have really benefited from my colleagues at Buffalo at elsewhere who took the time to give me feedback on my work.
In the midst of these legal speaking events, I also spent a Friday afternoon presenting my research to Buffalo's Geography Department at their weekly colloquium. It's wonderful to be part of a big university where opportunities to speak and work with colleagues in other departments abound. Land Use and Environmental Law present multiple avenues for intersections and interactions. The Geography Department faculty and graduate students asked me questions that law profs never would have come up with. My TA from the Geography Department is helping me map conservation easements in a GIS database. While I appreciate the feedback from law professors, the benefits of speaking to a broader crowd are plentiful. Next stop -- Urban and Regional Planning

Colonial Experiments in Gaza
[In view of Israel's assertions that its current attacks on the Gaza Strip are an exercise in legitimate self-defense, Jadaliyya re-posts an analysis Israel's attacks on Gaza authored by Samera Esmeir initially published in 2012.]
Once again Israel, still the occupying power of Gaza, has unleashed its war machinery on occupied Palestinians. Since the start of the second intifada in 2000, this ritual has become compulsive and repetitive. Israel initiated its new round of bloody violence by targeting Palestinian resistance fighters who, Minister of Transportation Yisrael Katz explained, Israel will "hunt like beasts." In this new round of war, shelling and bombardment--or "hunting," to use Katz's colonial vocabulary-- have been met with rockets that attempt to retaliate for the siege and violence imposed on Gaza, to assert Palestinian resilience, and to resist in some fashion decades of occupation.
Many commentators have noted that the initial declared objectives of this bloody ritual were limited in nature. The Israeli attacks did not aim to eliminate Palestinian resistance entirely, but rather to minimize it, as Ehud Barak stated on the first day of the war (14 November). Both Binyamin Netanyahu and Barak did not want to promise their constituencies results they knew they were incapable of delivering. But because such "minimization" could have been achieved by other means of pacification available to an occupying state (such as the negotiated truce that Hamas already agreed to), one has to wonder whether Palestinian resistance has been the sole, or real, target of this war. Instead, and similar to its earlier militaristic ventures in Gaza, Israel sought to demonstrate its mastery over the land, the air, the sea, and the people of Palestine, as well as to test its international alliances and enmities through their responses to its colonial aggression. Netanyahu and Barak also seek to score political points to enhance their respective prospects in the upcoming Israeli elections.
The above objectives are diverse and not entirely compatible. But they share a logic that instrumentalizes Gaza as the ground on which Israel tries to pursue its domestic, regional, and international military and political objectives. Gaza has become the literal testing ground for Israel's various experiments, as well as for the fulfillment of the personal ambitions of Israeli politicians. The transformation of Gaza into a laboratory for colonial and imperial hegemony in the region is made in Israel. As an occupying power, Israel transformed Gaza into such a laboratory by imposing on it different forms of confinements culminating in the siege imposed and maintained since 2006.
Confinement lessens the checks on Israel's military operations and decreases the deterrence and self-defense that Gaza can offer against the Israeli war machine. The horror of this latest war therefore lies not only in the destruction it engenders, but also in its condition of possibility: Here is a population held hostage that Israel attacks when it wishes in order to achieve political ends that have little to do with Gaza itself. The horror is in the careful and measured instrumentalization of the Palestinian population and in the logic that the colonized are expendable for any end.
This is why opposition to this war should not only condemn the deadly violence and destruction it engenders. The Israeli military machine has destroyed many parts of Palestine since 1948, from the bombardment and ethnic cleansing of entire villages during the 1948 war to the conquest of the remainders of Palestine in 1967 to the invasions and onslaughts of the past forty-five years. All of these campaigns of destruction necessitate opposition. But this current war on Gaza reveals its particular fragility and its susceptibility to Israeli experimentation more so than other parts of Palestine.
Although Gaza is walled off and isolated, it is not detached from the rest of Palestine. The particular forms of confinement, destruction, and experimentation in Gaza are constitutive of Israeli colonial rule. This rule maintains and reproduces itself through the fragmentation of Palestine and the Palestinian people into different population groups—those in exile, in Gaza, in the West Bank, in the Galilee and the Triangle, and so on. The proliferation of Palestinian populations has resulted in diffuse "solutions" to diverse populations—solutions that do not consider the possibility that the very production of discrete populations and separate solutions is the main achievement of Israeli colonial rule. Gazans, like camp refugees elsewhere, have become objects of humanitarian aid. Palestinian citizens of Israel demand equality and the transformation of the state into a democracy with equal rights for all citizens. Palestinian residents of the West Bank are in some sense the recipients of development funds from international donors and business communities, while Jerusalemites seek to strengthen their legal status as residents to avoid their deportation or forced relocation. The siege on Gaza and the experimental wars this makes possible are only the most visible and violent means through which Israel consolidates its colonial rule.
The siege on Gaza also has other effects. A territory of 365 square kilometers (141 square miles) with a population of 1.5 million, Gaza's inhabitants have nowhere to flee, as they have been confined in what has become the world's largest prison. Further, the siege under these conditions of demographic density makes the principle of distinction between civilian and combatant utterly useless, effectively turning all Palestinians into combatants or killable as "collateral damage." Netanyahu declared on the first day of the war that Israel will not target civilians, and military aircraft dropped leaflets admonishing people to stay away from likely targets. Even if we accept (naively, perhaps) that Israel makes careful attempts to spare the lives of Palestinian civilians, the very siege it imposes and the population density make it impossible to spatially separate civilians from combatants. Netanyahu's moralizing discourse fails, not because it is hypocritical but worse, because he, like other Israeli politicians, has made its realization impossible.
If Barak insisted on the limited goals of the war on its first day, Israeli officials subsequently announced that Israel will not end its assault until Hamas "begs" for a ceasefire. This desire to humiliate the Palestinians and crush all resistance testifies to the larger objective of this war—to remind all concerned that Israel makes the rules. Meanwhile, rockets fired from Gaza into Israel remind us that Israel cannot continue to make the rules for Palestinians as it wishes, and that using Gaza as a laboratory for testing power relations in the region will not be permanently tolerated. Absent any political pressure to lift the siege of Gaza, to end the occupation of Palestine, and to allow the refugees to return, these rockets are the only means through which Palestinians aim to establish some measure of deterrence against Israel and to declare that they are not to be instrumentalized whenever the occupying power, Israel, chooses to do so, whether in the form of occupation, war, or expulsion.

some understanding about the ways that incentives work in different settings or for different people. In the rest of this section, we discuss five different types of complexity that have been analyzed and the important considerations they raise for the design of incentives in education:
1. finding performance measures,
2. the different effects of incentives on different people,
3. the effects of uncertainty and control,
4. the effects of working in groups, and
5. weighing the benefits of incentives against their costs.
In most jobs, the value of the work performed by each worker is difficult to assess. For example, for many jobs, it is hard to measure what workers produce because their output cannot be counted in any meaningful way. The qualitative aspects of that work—the relationship with the client, the clarity of the report, the accuracy of the numbers—are more important in determining its value than such countable outcomes as the number of meetings held, pages written, or spreadsheets produced.
The difficulty in measuring the true results of what workers do is an important constraint in providing incentives—and the difference between the available measures of workers' output and the true value of that output has consequences for the way incentives operate. In an attempt to provide appropriate incentives, organizations often look for performance measures to use in objectively quantifying what each worker is producing. The problem is that these performance measures necessarily focus on the aspects of the job that can be easily quantified and neglect the qualitative aspects of the job that cannot be easily quantified. When incentives are attached to these performance measures, the predictable result is that workers often focus on the readily quantifiable aspects of the job that affect the performance measures and neglect the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the job that do not factor into the performance measures.
There are numerous examples of the distortion that results from the use of incentives with performance measures that do not adequately reflect the true value of the work that is being done. These examples confirm the findings in the theoretical analyses about the problems that can result when incentives are attached to performance measures that are not closely aligned with the true value of the work. For example, computer programmers rewarded by the length of their programs write longer programs, surgeons penalized for high mortality rates take less risky cases, and chief executive officers (CEOs) rewarded for their company's earn-

#SurvivorPrivilege is a Twitter hashtag campaign launched in response to American conservative columnist George Will's assertion in a Washington Post op-ed article that being a rape victim in college is a "coveted status" sought after by women because of the privileges it grants them.
On June 6th, 2014, The Washington Post[1] published an op-ed titled "Colleges become the victims of progressivism" by George F. Will, a Pulitzer Prize-winning conservative commentator, in which he suggests that rape is not an epidemic on college campuses and posits that if the reporting rate of sexual assaults is low, the crime rate itself must also be low. Furthermore, the author also asserts that becoming a victim of sexual assault could become a point of pride for college students, saying:
"Colleges and universities are being educated by Washington and are finding the experience excruciating. They are learning that when they say campus victimizations are ubiquitous ("micro-aggressions," often not discernible to the untutored eye, are everywhere), and that when they make victimhood a coveted status that confers privileges, victims proliferate."
On June 9th, Wagatwe Wanjuki (Twitter handle wagatwe)[2], who was the victim of a sexual assault during college, introduced the hashtag #SurvivorPrivilege to refute the claim that such a thing exists for rape victims.
Notable Developments
George Will's column, which came amidst an ongoing national debate in the United States over violence against women in the wake of the 2014 Isla Vista Killings, was quickly met with criticism on Twitter. According to Topsy, the hashtag #SurvivorPrivilege[3] was tweeted out more than 20,000 times within the first week.
News Media Coverage
That same day, several websites reported on the Twitter backlash against George Will's op-ed, including PolicyMic[4], Buzzfeed[5] and Feministing.[6] Following the spread of the hashtag, several blogs and news sites ran personal essays written by women who had survived sexual assault and wished to confirm it was not a coveted status. On June 11th, The Huffington Post[7] published a personal essay titled "Dear George Will -- A Few Words on My #SurvivorPrivilege."
Call for George Will's Termination
On June 10th, UltraViolet, a group devoted to fighting sexism, launched an online petition[9] calling for Will to be fired from the Post, and Terry O'Neill, the president of National Organization for Women, told Media Matters[8] the group was calling for Will's column to be dropped. She explained:
"George Will needs to take a break from his column and The Washington Post needs to take a break from his column, they need to dump him. It is actively harmful for the victims of sexual assault when that kind of man writes a piece that says to assault victims, 'it didn't happen and if it did happen you deserve it.' That re-traumatizes victims."

posted Jun 28 2011 3:12PM
So I go into work today, with high hopes of starting the day off right. I figured, I would go into the station, cut a couple of commercials, get some things ready for my show tonight, then Robbie and I would go get lunch. So I go into production room 4, to find that NOTHING works! Meanwhile Fender is in the other production room, so now I find myself falling behind schedule. Irritated as all hell, I eventually get a production room, and realize, I have none of my bullet points!
So I go into my office, logo onto my computer, only to have this old son of a bitch, to tell me to shut it down and update my programs! So that takes a half hour. Then to top it off, I look to my right, and there is Robbie, with a giant sub jammed in his mouth! So nothing went right this afternoon, but I do have some good news!
I have started working on the new shirts for the summer tour, and believe me, you are def. going to want to get your hands on these upcoming shirts! Trust me, these are going to be the best looking shirts Froggy has ever had! Know why, because I took into account, that people want to wear there Froggy shirts more than once, so they better be good looking! Don worry, we will be releasing pictures of them soon!

Tutorials/Measuring distance
Measuring distances in Minecraft can be quite tedious, but with a few simple guidelines you will never make a mistake again!
Official Units of Measure[edit]
Distances in Minecraft are quite easy to measure. Officially [1], Minecraft uses the metric system, and each block is considered to be 1 cubic meter. To measure long distances, then, simply place a torch or other marker object every ten blocks. Place a second marker at each tenth marker to mark 100 m distances, and at ten of these, you have one kilometer. Try placing a sign at each km, just like road signs in the real world.
Using the Imperial System[edit]
Some may wish to measure distances in yards and miles instead of meters and kilometers. Well, it may not be official, but nobody's stopping you, and it's a simulated world anyway.
So, you can simply consider a block as 1×1×1 yard instead. One mile is exactly 1760 yards. Place your initial markers every 16 blocks, and your double markers at every 11 markers rather than every 10. Thus, a double marker measures 16 × 11 = 176 yards, or 1⁄10 of a mile.
One Mile converts to 1609.344m. To simplify, consider a Mile to be 1610 blocks long. So for every 10 blocks, place a marker. Do this 161 times and you will have about a Mile in total. In Real Life, 1 Mile = 1.6 km & 0.625 Mile = 1 km.
If you press F3, the debug screen will give you your present location in X-Y-Z co-ordinates. Measuring distances between two locations or waypoints is as easy as subtraction, if you walk in a cardinal direction. Otherwise you will need to make use of good old algebra to solve the distance. This is not strictly in-game, but it makes a drastic difference in gameplay, avoiding a lot of frustrated wandering. Note that the X and Z coordinates are horizontal and can be positive or negative (the spawn point will be fairly close to 0, 0), but the Y coordinate represents your altitude, and Y=0 is the bedrock floor of the gameworld.
Conserving Markers[edit]
If the measurement is being taken above ground, and lighting the entire path is not necessary, place the markers as above. When 100 m is reached, the 10 m markers can be removed and reused for the next 100 m run. This allows for the path to be constructed without having to count 100 blocks at a time, while still allowing the markers on the completed path to be easily followed without using too much material.
Volume and Surface Area[edit]
The formula for the volume of a cube is s3, where s stands for the measurement of one of the cube's side. Since each side of a normal Minecraft block is 1 meter, this would equal 13, which would result in 1m3. (This works the same for yards, or any other unit of length. So do the rest of these comments.)
The formula for the surface area of a cube is 6s2, where s stands for the measurement of one of the cube's side. Since each side of a normal individual Minecraft block is 1 meter, this would equal 6×12, which would equal 6×1, which would result in 6m2.
As you make something, e.g. a house, bigger in all directions, its surface area increases faster than its length, but not as fast as its volume. The surface area tells you how many blocks you'll need for the outer walls, but your interior furnishings will probably increase according to the volume. Of course, shape matters: An 8×8×1 layer of dirt corresponds to a stack of 64 dirt blocks, but so does a 4×4×4 cube, or a 2×2×16 trench or shaft.
Using the Pythagorean Theorem[edit]
Sometimes the need arises in which you need to measure distances diagonally. Although it seems complicated, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to measure this diagonal distance. This geometric formula is normally used to find the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle. Since Minecraft is basically a world of cubes and right angles, this formula does indeed prove useful. Just picture an imaginary right triangle that covers the distance in your world that you wish to measure (NOTE: The two tips of the triangle that are not right angles should be the points on either end of the diagonal distance that you're trying to measure).
The formula is written as a2+b2=c2, where a and b are the "length and width" of the imaginary triangle and c is the hypotenuse of the triangle, or the diagonal distance that you're trying to measure. The "length and width" variables (a and b, respectively) are actually the X and Z axis of your world (only when measuring diagonal distances on a completely flat surface; any diagonal upwards measuring includes the Y axis). By squaring the X and Z distances, and then by adding them together, you get a number that equals c2, which is actually the square of the distance that you're trying to measure. By finding the square root of this number, you have the diagonal distance (in meters) between two points in your Minecraft world that lie at equal heights on the Y axis.
If, for some reason, one of those two points was higher or lower than the other, your measurement would be off (especially if they were a large vertical distance apart). To fix this, use your previous diagonal distance as a and the vertical distance as b. Using these new numbers, solve for c. That would be your total straight-line distance between the two points.
Here's an example:
Point H (Home) has XYZ coordinates of -35, 68, and 97. Point M (Mineshaft) has XYZ coordinates of 76, 43, and -5. The two points are H(-35,68,97) and M(76,43,-5). Find the total distance between the two places.
That was just the flat part. Now we figure out the vertical component.
Through the Pythagorean Theorem, we have discovered that points H and M are 152.8070679 meters apart.
Alternatively, if you want to include vertical distance immediately (without the hassle of doing the Pythagorean Theorem twice), use a similar formula: a2+b2+c2=d2. In this formula, use a, b, and c for the differences in the X, Y, and Z coordinates (respectively), and d should give the total straight-line distance between the points (which is the same as doing the Pythagorean Theorem twice).

oh oops, i think i misinterpreted your post
my bad lol
Take some jelly. Take some fish. Look at that sandwich. Mmmm deeeeee-lish.

Cattle and Wheat In Frigid Conditions Concerns Kansas Ranchers And Farmers
Kansas farmers are coping with frigid conditions as they look after cattle herds.
Most Kansas ranchers have not begun calving yet. But the lack of snow on the ground means cattle can stay dry and better weather the subzero weather.
It also means there is little protective cover for exposed winter wheat crops. It will be spring before farmers know the full extent of freeze damage.
The National Weather Service says Garden City and Cottonwood Falls had the state's lowest temperatures early Monday at minus 12 degrees.
Temperatures elsewhere varied widely, with southeast and northeast Kansas seeing lows around minus 11 degrees. It was minus 5 degrees in Wichita on Monday morning.

Even though it's available year round, I really love that first ear of corn in late spring or early summer, when they are at their peak.
Like tomatoes, corn is best when grown locally. Check out our local farm markets and farmers markets. Usually, the corn sold there has been picked that morning, unlike corn sold in the local super markets. Corn loses it freshness very quickly.
Corn is the number one field crop grown in the United States, in both value and volume of production. Did you know that corn is the main ingredient in most of our dry pet foods? Or that one bushel of corn is needed to sweeten 400 cans of Coca-Cola?
Preparation Tips
When boiling ears of corn, I like to boil the ears for about 7 minutes in salted water. When roasting, make sure to soak the unhusked ears in water for about 10 minutes prior to roasting (this will help prevent the husks from charring). Place the corn on a pre-heated grill (direct-medium if using gas grill) and roast 10-15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes.
To microwave ears of corn, simply place the ears with their husks on in the microwave. If cooking one or two ears, microwave on High for 5 minutes per ear, turning halfway through.
When roasting and microwaving, use caution and wear oven mitts when husking. The steam built up inside the husks is very hot.
Roasted Corn on the Cob No. 1
Fresh corn is shucked, placed on squares of aluminum foil and coated with mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese and chili powder.
6 ears corn, husked and cleaned
3 Tbsp. mayonnaise
6 Tbsps. grated Parmesan cheese
Chili powder
Butter (spray-type works best)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Preheat grill to 350 degrees. Coat each ear with a thin layer of mayonnaise. Sprinkle each ear of corn with Parmesan cheese, chili powder, salt and pepper. Spray each ear with butter. Wrap each ear in aluminum foil and place on the grill. Grill for about 20 minutes, turning halfway through.
Roasted Corn on the Cob No. 2
Fresh corn is shucked, placed on squares of aluminum foil and drizzled with a spicy, buttery concoction of mustard, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce.
6 ears fresh corn
1/3-cup butter
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. hot sauce
Preheat grill for medium heat. In a small saucepan, melt butter or margarine. Stir in dry mustard, hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Place each ear of corn on individual pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Drizzle with butter mixture.
Wrap loosely, leaving space for the expansion of steam and seal. Grill over medium heat for 20 minutes, or until corn is tender. Carefully unwrap foil and serve. Makes six servings.
Fresh Corn Salad
5 ears corn, shucked
1/2 cup small-diced red onion
3 Tbsp. cider vinegar
3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup chiffonade fresh basil leaves
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the corn for about 3 minutes or until the starchiness is just gone. Drain and immerse it in ice water to stop the cooking and set the color.
When the corn is cool, cut the kernels off the cob, cutting close to the cob. Toss the kernels in a large bowl with the red onions, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Just before serving, toss in the freshly cut basil. Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.
Note: Try adding 1/2 cup of chopped tomato and 1/2 cup feta cheese, diced or crumbled, for an additional kick.
Garden Kebabs
2 ears corn-on-the-cob, husked and cut into 3 pieces each
3 small zucchini, each cut into 4 pieces
1 large onion, cut into 12 wedges
12 large fresh mushroom caps
2 bell peppers, cut into 2-inch pieces
6 cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 tsps. fresh chives, chopped
2 tsps. fresh dill weed, chopped
1/4 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. lemon juice
Preheat grill and prepare for indirect grilling (flame on either side but not directly underneath). Boil corn for about 5-8 minutes or until tender. Allow corn to cool enough to handle.
Place vegetables on kebabs alternating between vegetables. Stir together baste ingredients and brush over kebabs. Place kebabs on hot grill over the unlit part. Grill for 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are cooked. Baste occasionally with brush. Makes 6 kebabs.
Corn Chowder
4 slices bacon
2 Tbsps. minced onion
1 Tbsp. minced celery
1 Tbsps. minced green pepper
2 cups whole-kernel corn
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
3 tomatoes, diced
4 cups milk
Salt and pepper, to taste
Dice the bacon and brown in a pan over medium heat; add onion, celery and green pepper. Cook until bacon is crisp. Add the corn and sauté for 4-5 minutes.
Add the potatoes, tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Then, add the milk and heat until boiling; remove from heat. Serve with a garnish of chopped parsley.
Chipotle Chicken and Corn Skillet
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups fresh or frozen whole kernel corn
2 medium zucchini, sliced crosswise, 1/4 inch thick
1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 plum tomatoes, cut lengthwise in thin wedges
1 chipotle pepper from a can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
1 Tbsp. adobo sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
In a large non-stick skillet, heat oil on medium-high. Add chicken; cook and stir about 5 minutes or until browned. Add corn, zucchini and onion. Cover and cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally until vegetables are softened. Stir in tomatoes, chipotle pepper and salt. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, covered, or until chicken is cooked through.
Serve in shallow soup bowls. Makes 4 servings.
Note: It may not be the same, but 1 Tbsp. chili powder stirred into 2 Tbsp. ketchup can replace the chipotles in adobo sauce.

As some of you may recall about two years ago, I wrote a pretty controversial "preseason prediction" article. It stirred the pot a little bit, but mainly it had me thinking of what I should come up with this season. As we all anticipate with each passing day the 2015 Bowman Gray season, I can't help but to look back at 2014 just a little.
Some of the events that happened were unbelievable, to say the least. The "Myers and Miller" feud is still as strong as ever, and Tim Brown finally stood up for what he believed wasn't right. We had a brand new champion in our premiere division, Danny Bohn in Puddin Swisher's famous #53 car. Who would've predicted that at the beginning? Not I. I'm looking forward to this year's season more so than I have in the past, with the development of new engines and chassis combinations, like LFR.
The Sportsman season finale was one of the biggest clusters I had ever witnessed with all the "he said she said" going on, until finally Taylor Branch was crowned champion. New faces showed up, but so did old ones. And those faces we all know took their experience and ran with it. Guys like Derek, Ryan, and others consistently ran up front week in and week out. I've heard many rumors of drivers moving up to this division, so it should be a great year.

Trying to get the full name of a function in Python. this question about function names specifies that the
__name__ field should be used to get the function name. However, for this particular case, the full name is needed: the modules that contain it plus the function's name.
The purpose of this is to enable accessing a function through a different program in the same project.
# file /my/project/funcs.py
def fun_1(a):
# Looking for a function like this:
def get_fun_name(function):
>>> get_fun_name(fun_1)
As you can see, the ideal answer would print out hte modules and the function of the function object that is provided as argument.
Thanks very much! Any help will definitely be appreciated!

Katrina Bowden Is Esquire's Readers Sexiest Woman Alive
'30 Rock' starlet Katrina Bowden is officially Esquire magazine's Readers Pick the Sexiest Woman Alive. She won a March Madness-style bracket tournament to claim the spot, though she was dubbed an underdog and "seeded" relatively low, ranked No. 10 in the TV division.
Bowden was photographed by the anonymous photographer helming MeInMyPlace.com, a site that shoots "real women, in their real homes, in their real clothes, at their invitation," according to Esquire. Watch Katrina's acceptance speech video and see more sexy photos here.
►On her start at '30 Rock': "I found out I was playing Cerie on Friday, and started on Monday. I was so scared that I got kind of lost getting there. So I walk in the room late, out of breath, and everyone's just sitting down at the table staring at me. Then Tracy Morgan gets up and says, 'Don't just stand there lookin' beautiful - sit down right next to me!'"
►And she claims to love french fries.

These things are kinda stupid. How can you name her the sexiest woman alive if you haven't checked every woman alive? This probably should have been called the "Hottest Woman We Could Find for a Contest" award.
I mean, there are tons of women in the Israeli Defense Force that look better than this girl.

I worked at Dixons Retail
Easy to get positions, but may not be the most flexible around holidays. Good to work for if you want part time, and also not bothered about actually getting bonuses etc- most are not really available. The team in some stores can be great friends that you will always remember- in the lower turnover (i.e. good management) stores that is! If you know someone who works at one- ask them about the management- it can make alot of difference. I went through management changes and boy were new management digging a hole for themselves in the store as morale plummets!
No christmas/new year holidays allowed, plus not much flexibility if you want more hours over fewer days. Expect to possibly get 'done over' when it comes to overtime, good faith work, and also working at the higher position and getting it paid to you in back dated pay- just do not fall for it. Although At times it can be quite a good place to be.
Whatever you do, try to enjoy it, and remember you do not need to go in for their pushing- you have the ability to do things your way- your not paid by commission so serve the customer in your personal advantage.
Find out about the ones at your store- your store managers make a would of difference. One store management team were superb- and it refelected in the customer service- most others are terrible

Frog jump is a family tradition at the Elkhart County 4-H Fair
The Elkhart County 4-H Fair celebrated kids Wednesday, July 23, with plenty of activities including a frog jump contest.
Mya Fenner is so serious about the Elkhart County 4-H Fair's frog jump event that she brought her own frogs — a bucket full, caught near her Goshen home.
The 5-year-old selected Leapster for his above-average leaping abilities and he did her proud.
The tiny frog completed an 11-inch jump, close to the distance covered by much bigger frogs in the contest.
The frog jump kicked off Kids Day at the fair Wednesday, July 23, and it's one of the longest running Kid's Day activities according to Jill Garris, fair board member running the jump.
"This is a 30-year tradition," Garris noted, in between announced frog jump contestants. "At this point, we are getting parents who used to participate coming with their kids. It's just another great family tradition at the fair."
It's a tradition that that gets kids excited every year, and each child has a different theory about the best way to convince frogs to hop across the pavement.
Tate Granberg, 4, could barely sit still waiting for his turn. He and his siblings Sage Granberg, 7, and Colt Granberg, 5, agreed that slapping the ground next to the frog or blowing air near the frog's head are sure ways to get the animal jumping.
Tate's eyes lit up as he stretched his arms wide to show how big he hoped his frog would be, but the siblings ultimately noted that smaller frogs can jump farther.
Another participant, 8-year-old Jorja Dirmyer, said her best advice to beginner frog jumpers is to "do your best and don't touch the frog."
Technique aside, though, Dirmyer worries most about what she'll name her frog.
She usually spends most of the day prior to the event thinking of a name, she said.
Other Kid's Day activities Wednesday included a scavenger hunt, pizza dough toss, cat and dog activities, cooking classes and more.
Rides were also discounted from 1 p.m. until closing.

Cemetery plans to fit 1000 more
Relevant offers
If you are going to die anywhere, Invercargill can certainly fit you in.
Invercargill's Eastern Cemetery is expanding, so 1000 more people can be buried there.
Invercargill City Council parks manager Robin Pagan said his department was simply planning for the future by opening up and landscaping another piece of land, but it was likely the first people would be buried there by the end of the year.
While there was still a lot of space in the other parts of the cemetery it was not always convenient to bury people at the same place at the same time, he said.
About 250 people were buried at the cemetery each year, some of them in existing plots, so it was hoped the new land would last at least five years.
The council has enough land to last another 50 years, Mr Pagan said.
Turf and reserve supervisor Shona Tomlin had the job of growing the grass in the area, something the weather had helped with over summer, she said.
Once the grass was grown, trees would be planted and the concrete planks erected for the headstones.
Mr Pagan said the council spent $100,000 creating a road for the new burial area, which could eventually be extended to any other sections that may be required in the future.
While the section in the cemetery where people were presently being buried still had space, it was necessary to have two areas to bury people to avoid congestion during busy times. "Hearses normally don't back very well."
Mr Pagan said the cemetery was a busy place and it was important to ensure the area was looked after and had plenty of space for families to spend time.
"On Christmas Day you are more likely to get run over at the cemetery than on Dee St."

Alert - Rand Paul on Fox News (Hannity) Monday night, Sept 10Submitted by gee_blee on Sun, 09/09/2012 - 15:30
Rand's been on a roll.
Prime time nationally-televised interviews on Fox and CNN where he repeatedly dropped "libertarian". Rousing speech at the convention. And today's superb appearance on 'This Week', where he again worked in "libertarian" and even-handedly criticized both Obama and Romney.
This is what I hoped for when he won the senate seat. He's really carrying the torch.
- Login to post comments
thanks for
letting us know...I will make sure to busy myself with something more thought provoking and entertaining...like watching paint peel.
I guess you get bored by Ron Paul interviews too, then...
...because Rand delivers Ron's message, only more coherently (arguably).
I Won't be Tuning In
CNBC will find they don't get quite the same ratings bump they were accustomed to when having Ron Paul on. I can't stand Hannity, but I would enjoy it if Ron Paul was on because the conversation/debate was always interesting. I don't foresee anything discussed between Rand and Hannity being the least bit interesting. It'll be all about uniting behind Romney to beat Obama. "Ra-ra red is good, blue is bad", etc...
You need to forget about this election...
...and watch Rand enhance the libertarian brand.
It's not about this election. It never was.
Rand Paul will be able to do
Rand Paul will be able to do something Ron could never do, and that is get the national medias attention. By the time 2016 comes around, if Rand Paul has the support I believe he will challenge Romney and WIN. We have to keep electing more liberty candidates and keep flexing our muscle.

TomTom updates

I am getting a little frustrated with updating my TomTom Go 1000 Live.
For the past two weeks I have been informed of updates being available. When I access the website and click 'Get Updates' either the download hangs or nothing happens.
This morning I am informed that there are now three updates available-again nothing happens. I have twice posted queries with TomTom support and each time I am told, we are aware of the problem! Like the downloads, nothing happens!! I have fired off yet another email...
Has anyone else had a similar problem with their TomTom? Better still, do you know of anyway I can get TomTom to provide the service they are supposed to do!

Is this a free service or one you have paid for ?

I am unimpressed with the TomTom map updates, it seems they see it as an ongoing revenue stream yet many issues on maps never get fixed regardless.
I won't be buying a TomTom next time I get a new SatNav as others do free map updates, & it seems dedicated satnavs are feeling the pinch with GPS built into smart phones & hopefully this will change what I consider to be a bit of a rip off on this companies part.
Having said that for the likes of me who travel around looking for places in cities & towns I've never been in satNavs cut down my stress enormously as I do not have any sense of direction & all the city maps remain under the seat.

Input, totally agree! The hassle with juggling a map and trying to see where I am going simply disappeared. I did get a reply from TomTom late yesterday. Their instructions basically suggest uninstalling the home3 folder and reloading. I have actually uninstalled the complete My TomTom file and reloaded afresh, I did that first thing and so far all seems well. I am disappointed that my original query has taken so long to get a response. The TomTom forum is quite busy with similar questions regarding the updates failing, some go back months. I shall hold my breath for the rest of the week and trust that I get no more problems.
