Toussaint Losier on Black Power and Police Brutality in Chicago
Toussaint Losier speaks on "Help Us Reduce Abuse": Black Power, Police Brutality, and the Problem of Institutional Accountability in Chicago.
Dr. Toussaint Losier of the University of Chicago will address the issues at the core of Christopher Dorner's manifesto through the lens of the Chicago-based Afro-American Patrolmen's League (AAPL). Established in 1968, the AAPL mobilized a cohort of lower-ranking black policement to play a lead role in efforts to force Chicago PD officials and members of Mayor Richard Daley's political machine to bring an end to an epidemic of police brutality and corruption.

Toussaint Losier on the 1978 Pontiac Prison Rebellion
Modern U.S. History candidate Toussaint Losier gives a talk entitled "In the Shadows of Attica: the 1978 Pontiac Prison Rebellion and the Origins of Mass Incarceration."
This research presentation will examine the stakes involved in writing a social history of mass incarceration. With all the difficulties inherent in researching what occurs behind prison walls, this presentation argues for the need to write such a history through an examination of the social movement politics of prisoners' rights and the impact of this politics on the management of correctional facilities.

With the average age of European Union (EU) nuclear plants now at around 30 years, bringing enough new capacity online to match that lost through the closure of old nuclear plants will present a major challenge, writes Stephen Tarlton.
Currently, 131 nuclear power reactors with a combined capacity of around 122 GWe operate in 14 EU member states. This accounts for over one-quarter of the electricity generated across all of the EU's 28 member states. Half of the EU's nuclear electricity is produced in only one country, namely France.
But with the French government planning to cap nuclear capacity at its current level of around 63 GWe, along with the politically-motivated decisions by two member states (Germany and Belgium) to exit nuclear power over the next decade, a decline in EU capacity up to around 2030 is all but inevitable.
In order to reverse this expected short-term decline, the new generation of nuclear reactor designs needs to be firmly established in the EU. Today, nuclear plant construction is underway in only three EU member states - Finland, France and Slovakia (although the reactors under construction in Slovakia are Russian VVER-440 units, a design that is unlikely to be built again). Beyond these units, the countries that are most likely to have additional new nuclear units in operation by 2030 are Finland, Hungary, Lithuania and the United Kingdom. Though less likely, further new units by 2030 might also be seen in Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and Sweden.
According to a new report titled New Nuclear in Europe - 2030 Outlook by the World Nuclear Association (WNA), the outcome of the nuclear projects in these 13 countries - but especially the two EPRs currently under construction in Finland and France, along with the planned new reactors in Finland, Hungary, Lithuania and the United Kingdom - will determine whether the expected short-term decline in the EU's nuclear industry will be reversed.

Denver is a relatively young city, and its culinary scene reflects its age. Chefs there have a focus on locally sourced, organic produce and seasonal ingredients prepared simply for their patrons. The dishes in most Denver restaurants are approachable yet creative, without any of the stuffiness or pretension found in many east coast restaurants.
The critics at Zagat and Fodor's have chosen Mizuna as one of Denver's top restaurants. Located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood, Mizuna draws on chef-owner Frank Bonnano's Italian heritage for many of the dishes, although there are many classic American dishes served as well. Other top-rated Denver food venues include Rioja in Larimer Square and Restaurant Kevin Taylor in the downtown area.
People with a yearning for street food head to Biker Jim's Restaurant. The restaurant, which still operates food carts and trucks around the city, got its start on the streets of Denver, serving hotdogs that are locally produced and completely nitrate-, antibiotic- and hormone-free. Adventurous diners can be seen eating hotdogs made from wild boar, rattlesnake and pheasant, while the more conservative patrons feast on vegan, duck or bacon-wrapped dogs.
Some Denver dining venues lean towards the unusual. At Vesta Dipping Grill, for instance, it really is all about the sauce. The restaurant serves all of its dishes with a complementary dipping sauce, making Vesta a favorite for families with small children. Beatrice & Woodsley on South Broadway have brought the outdoors inside, with a design and architectural touches that are second only to the food.
Denver's restaurants encompass many world cuisines. Trillium on Larimer Street specializes in Scandinavian cuisine, Cuba Cuba Cafe and Bar in the Golden Triangle neighborhood features authentic Cuban food and Domo Restaurant in Lincoln Park is decidedly Japanese. New Saigon on South Federal Boulevard specializes in unusual Vietnamese dishes, best eaten by adventurous foodies.

Top of the Charts: Top five hits of 2013
There is no doubt that this was a great year to be a pop star, and we followed it all here each week in Top of the Charts as the Billboard Hot 100 crowned independent rap stars, former Disney sensations, R&B crooners, YouTube viral memes and pop divas as chart-topping royalty.
Across the year, a slew of talented artists were popping to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time. Miley Cyrus swung nude atop a "Wrecking Ball" to her first chart-topping experience. New Zealand pop phenom Lorde's debut single "Royals" stayed at number one for an impressive nine weeks. And the year was so full of huge pop hits that neither of those singles found their way into the top five of Billboard's year-end Hot 100 chart. See that full list here and count down the five biggest hits of 2013 below. »Read Full Blog Post

The problem is that there will always be new hardware and new graphics standards to support, and having a small hardware-specific layer reduces the effort required to do that (ie gives the development community a chance of keeping up). If the driver requirements ever really became static (or even static-ish) then optimizing for performance at the expense of extensibility might make sense.
The current Gallium3D API level seems like a pretty reasonable compromise between potential performance and required development effort.

It's been two years since the state of Florida made the buying and selling of horse meat a felony...
Posted 01 December 2012 - 16:04
They made it illegal because people were killing wild horses and horses that were the property of other people. There wasn't really a penalty that could be proven once the horse was dead and gone, so they created this law.
Posted 02 December 2012 - 00:45
That sounds ridiculous . The exact same thing could be said of cows. Why wouldn't there be any proof and a possible punishment for stealing a horse from someone? The fact that you ate it doesn't really change the previous act? Really, doesn't make sense at all.
Posted 02 December 2012 - 01:39
There aren't 'wild' cows in Florida. Nor are cows used for anything but milk (which don't make for good meat) or slaughter. So no, the same thing cannot be said for cows.
Posted 02 December 2012 - 02:04
Posted 02 December 2012 - 02:40
Note that it isn't a national law - but a law specific to a single state.
The use of USDA officials to enforce a state-level law is what I find objectionable.
If Florida sees fit to have such a unique law, let the state pay the freight - or, if they are going to use assets of the national government, at least reimburse Uncle Sam's costs.

Palatino® Sans Informal Schriftfamilie
Entworfen von Hermann Zapf (2006)
Akira Kobayashi (2006)
Palatino Sans is a 21st Century sans serif typeface from the master German designer Hermann Zapf. Palatino Sans and Palatino Sans Informal was designed as part of a group of three font families: Palatino nova, Palatino Sans, and Palatino Sans Informal. Together these three families act as the fulfilment of Herman Zapf's original Palatino idea. Palatino, which was born as a metal typeface in 1950, proved to be one of the 20th Century's most popular designs. Not only is Palatino Sans Informal a completely new typeface, it is also a completely new interpretation of the entire sans serif genre. Its letterforms are curved, rounded, and soft, not hard and industrial. In comparison with Palatino Sans, Palatino Sans Informal offers eccentricities that are somewhat artistic and more individual looking. The fonts in the Palatino Sans Informal family include several OpenType features, such as an extended character set covering all Latin-based European languages, old style figures, small caps, fractions, ordinals, ligatures, alternates, and ornaments. Palatino Sans Informal can be mixed well with Palatino and Palatino Sans.

"While technology is an important part of the education equation, it doesn't tell the whole story. Teachers play a bigger role than ever in developing an engaging well-rounded curriculum, though integrating technology into the mix presents its own unique set of challenges. Many teachers have been reluctant to replace their print materials due to cost and dissatisfaction with the available digital options. According to the MDR 2014 State of the K–12 Market Report, there's a growing demand for solutions that improve teaching and personalized learning and educators are willing to consider new instructional models.
"Finding quality EdTech resources can be a challenge. In recent searches, I've found many lists like this but they seem to be out of date. Some of the blogs on those lists haven't been updated in years. Outdated content is basically worthless in an industry that is constantly changing. "Here's a list of 10 EdTech blogs to follow that are updated often."
On the GeoGebra YouTube channel you will find more 200 video tutorials. If you're just starting out with GeoGebra on your desktop or tablet, the GeoGebra quickstart videos will be of use to you. The videos are silent, but the visuals are clear.

For those teachers wanting to pursue using MakerSpace in the classroom, this is might a place to explore.

3d printing is something that i would like to no more about, while also keeping up with the revolutionary changes. The value of this tool within education would have remarkable influences on learning outcomes in regards to Industrial Technology and design.
"A host of new apps are available to jump-start creative thinking and spark new ideas."
Charles Fischer's curator insight,
April 26, 10:31 AM
Some nice apps that can definitely help with creative thinking! In seminars, apps like these could be used in place of a turn-and-talk or other technique to get conversation going again.
Last month we announced Education on Air — our free online conference taking place May 8-9, 2015 — and asked what you wanted to hear about. Today we released the schedule of sessions, based largely on what we heard from you. We'll emphasize innovation — 44% of you voted for this — as well as how to empower students and use Google tools effectively. It was clear from our second poll that you also want practical examples, so our speakers will go beyond theory and share their specific advice for enacting change.
Monday's post about Parapara Animation was quite popular and prompted questions from readers looking for similar tools that either work on tablets or offer more features than Parapara Animation. Here are some other sites and apps for creating animations.
When teachers try to untangle this cognitive mess, they sacrifice personalization for efficiency. There are simply too many students, and too much content to cover, so they cut to the chase. Via Miloš Bajčetić |
In this 4-week online workshop, you'll learn from library and industry experts how to build a maker program at your library to engage your community and fuel lifelong learning. Guest speakers appear each week, live via web video, in interactive sessions where you can ask questions. You'll work in small groups with facilitators experienced in the maker movement and we'll challenge you to complete assignments and field research in your library that will have your maker program up and running by the end of the course.
"Google Classroom is quietly becoming the most powerful tool in education technology.
"Does the idea of broadcasting live video from your mobile device sound interesting?
"Making allows students to learn by doing and solve problems by tinkering, trial and error. Minecraft is a 3D sandbox game, which has made its way into classrooms because it engages students across a range of subjects. Imagine the learning that happens when these two popular education movements are combined. Via Jim Lerman
Among all the links and downloads out there, it can be hard for teachers to know which ones work best. Google has made it easier by creating Google for Educators, which compiles some of the search engine's most useful features in one place. Whether you're teaching Spanish or social studies, mathematics or music, there's a free Google feature that will make your lessons more dynamic and your projects more organized. The lively, informative website offers step-by-step visual tours and even videos to help you get set up. Below are some of the most useful features the site has to offer.
On a cold winter night four or five months ago I started to organize the screencast videos that I've made over the years. I called the list Practical Ed Tech Tips. Since I started that list I've made an effort to add one or two new screencasts to it every week. Yesterday, I added the 100th video to the Practical Ed Tech Tips playlist.
Mayra.Loves.Books's curator insight,
May 3, 10:20 AM
A vast amount of needed information to expand your use of technology in the classroom. The short screencast videos are easy to follow and extremely practical.
Twice last week John Stevens tipped me off to new developments in the Google Docs and Forms Add-on called g(Math). First, he alerted me when g(Math) began supporting handwritten responses in Forms and then he notified me when the same support arrived for Docs. In the videos embedded below you can learn how to use g(Math) for Google Forms and Google Docs to accept handwritten entries.
Project-based learning is a complex teaching method that, in our experience, requires a clear and established workflow to seamlessly accommodate the needs of teachers, parents, and students. Throughout this school year, we have found several apps, add-ons, and programs that have helped us best manage our workflow.
"We built Classroom to help teachers spend less time on paperwork, and more time with their students. Since we launched, we've also heard from teachers and professors that they'd love to be able to use Classroom to collaborate with other educators.
For a change of pace, here's a list of "awesome" apps for teachers from Scholastic Instructor magazine offering activities for a wide range of subjects. These were chosen through crowdsourcing on Scholastic's Facebook page for teachers as well as with help from the magazine's teacher advisers and education bloggers. They were published in a recent edition of the magazine,, and I am republishing them with permission.
There's a problem with traditional video conferencing clients. Though they are in abundance, they're only remotely useful if all parties are collectively using the same client. Popular services such as VoxOX, ooVoo, IMO and, of course, Skype and Google Hangouts all have this problem, thus putting a damper on quick collaboration. One "solution" to this is… Via Ana Cristina Pratas, Miloš Bajčetić, Jim Lerman |

You need this. Put one in my girls S3 and it works great!
Has anyone tried pairing this with a laptop running windows 7?

2W x 4 + 15W So can you hear this from more than 5 feet away?

I got this thing about a month ago, and I got a Note 3 that I plan on setting up later today. I bought the official Samsung Qi back cover: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F3587PW/ref=oh_details_o04_s02_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I know it's more expensive than the aftermarket ones, but for as finicky as Qi charging can be, supposedly, I'll go with this one and be happy if it actually works. I'll let you guys know how everything works.

Yeah, it's not as loud as the other TDK cube/boombox products but it sounds quite good for what it is, and Bluetooth works well. It's got decent bass and sounds clear. I wouldn't use it to replace my TV's sound bar or 500 w surround sound system but this one is much less overkill and it's nice to have something on my bedstand to play music & [hopefully] wirelessly charge my new phone.

Lots of great information here ....what ?
Here's the official Qi Wireless Power Consortium Web site. You can also find interesting information at the Wikipedia Qi page and the Qi Wireless blog. Those should help find devices that are compatible with Qi charging.
You would need a charging cover for the Note 3. You can get one from Samsung directly for $19.99 using code rv18623. Use this link for info - http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/12/13/deal-alert-get-the-galaxy-note-3-wireless-charging-cover-in-black-or-white-for-50-off-in-the-samsung-store-20-off-at-best-buy/ I ordered one from Samsung last week so waiting for it to show up. Since the cover adds a little depth most form fitting cases won't work with the charging cover though.
I bought one of these last month, I'm really happy with it. I'm considering buying another one today. I usually keep it plugged in on my desk next to my computer and sometimes while I'm listening to [whatever] I unplug it and take it into the kitchen. I've definitely gotten a couple of hours of listening out of it on battery power but I've never tried seeing how long it will go. It pairs up easily (Bluetooth). The sound is really impressive for its size - it's much, much better than say, a clock radio and if you live in a small apartment this might even be a suitable replacement for a small stereo system. I have not tried the Qi charging but based on reviews that seems to be the Achilles Heel of the unit and probably why it found its way to Woot. I look at it this way; someone somewhere at some time paid the original $399.99 list price for this unit. For the design, Bluetooth connectivity, sound quality & portability I think this unit is a steal at $79.99.
If I want to use this only as a speaker and ignore the Qi charging feature, is it still a good deal for the price?
I picked one of these up last year. The wall wart is a bit huge, but it's only needed for charging. With my Lumia 810 I had to set it a bit off to the side of the Qi logo to charge. I haven't had a chance to try my 925 yet. For those with newer Galaxies, you can usually pick up a Qi insert to put inside the case to add the feature.

On a related question- I can not get my friends laptop (Bluetooth enabled) win 7 pro- to output to either a jambox or the big beatbox- it recognizes it but won't pair- any idea's? I need something for her to play all her music on her laptop to either of those devices or some Bluetooth speaker- called dr dre- they say they don't support it- (Bluetooth is a standard, no?)
I want to know the wattage on the TDK wireless speaker
So, I just pulled the trigger on another one. It was a bit of a shock that taxes were collected this time. I guess the time simply has come. It's still a great deal. @yeahbuddy: I think it's still a great deal without using the Qi charging feature. I haven't used it, I may never use it but I think it looks great and sounds great. You'd have to be the judge for yourself of course. Oh and you can either connect via Bluetooth or plug in directly using the aux input in the back.
This thing sounds great and I can be waaaay across my room and still hear and control it fine with my Samsung Note 3. I went to Best Buy and tried one of the official Samsung Charge back covers and unfortunately there was just enough thickness added that I could not slide it back into my Seido Surface case. Now my case is very low profile so I bet some of the silicone style ones would still work. Someone mentioned that you can use the qi inserts that fit inside your back cover. I would love to know if that would work WITH my case on. For me, personally, having to remove my case to wireless charge is more of a pain than just plugging in the charging cable. When I bought this a month ago I was happy when I received it. The unit itself feels very solid and weighty and has terrific sound.
19 volt battery- sounds like a proprietary rechargeable battery, available at what cost? and only from TDK? How long will the battery shipped with the unit last?
Well, it's sold out now but this is at least the 2nd time they've sold these on Woot so maybe this information will prove useful if they get some more in stock. I set up my new Note 3 (which is very nice, and only slightly larger than my original Note albeit noticeably heavier) with the official Samsung Qi back panel. It's thicker than the stock one; I can't imagine an aftermarket insertable Qi component would be able to fit within the stock panel. Anyways, the Note 3 fits perfectly across the depression at the top of the TDK cube, which is probably why it easily starts charging (since there's no room to reposition it, really.) It also charges in any orientation. I'm not sure how to figure out the actual current output; it says 1 amp max in the device specs but I think I have to find some app or check in the phone settings to see if it'll tell me the actual rate of charge. The only downside is that the TDK has to be powered on to charge the phone, even though you might not want to simultaneously use it to play music (e.g. if I just wanted to let it charge overnight.) Aside from that, the unit also has to be on to charge a device via the rear USB port, again, even if you just want to charge without playing audio. The TDK does power itself off automatically after a few moments with no audio playing, but it doesn't seem to be doing that if you're simultaneously charging something else.
yeahbuddy wrote:If I want to use this only as a speaker and ignore the Qi charging feature, is it still a good deal for the price?
Kind of. The Qi feature is nice to have if you can utilize it, particularly since it's a multifunction device rather than just a Qi pad taking up space by itself. The TDK otherwise sounds good and works with both Bluetooth & auxiliary stereo input, is quite compact, and looks nice. The built-in battery is a nice bonus but I have no use for it. As I've said before I like this line of TDK cubes/boomboxes but I think this one would be a better deal at maybe $60 (regardless of the original MSRP) as just a wired/wireless speaker system (i.e. if you weren't going to use the battery or Qi) based on the going rate for their other, more powerful speakers (the cubes/2-speaker-boomboxes have gone for ~$100 recently.)
maysaffar wrote:I want to know the wattage on the TDK wireless speaker
No offense, but this info is already available in the device specs on the product's sale page and has also been posted above by another user (and then quoted by my first post above.)

As I described above, I think the Qi components necessarily add thickness to any back cover so a custom-fit, inflexible case will most likely not work as they are generally not built to the specs of the alternate Qi charging back cover. Fortunately I just got the phone and haven't purchased a case yet (so the case will not be useless now) however I still have to actually find one that fits, particularly as I'm also adding a glass display protector that has substantial thickness.
fixitron wrote:19 volt battery- sounds like a proprietary rechargeable battery, available at what cost? and only from TDK? How long will the battery shipped with the unit last?
Where did you read that it has a 19 volt battery? The specs don't describe the battery at all (and I haven't been able to find any details with my initial search.) 19 would be 5 x 3.8 volt Lithium Ion cells in series (or perhaps about 16 NiMH cells,) but what I think you're seeing is the nominal output of the AC transformer, not the actual battery. Aside from that, I'd expect the internal battery to last a couple of years with regular use (500-1000 full cycles depending on the actual chemistry.) The actual battery is probably a simple repack of either commercially available cells (e.g. AA or C) or perhaps proprietary Li-Ion ones. Doesn't look like it will be easy to find a replacement; if even available I think you'd have to contact TDK directly.
I've had no problems pairing in Win 7, Win 8 or Android. I can't remember but I think it was fine with iOS as well (don't use my Touch much). As long as you have Bluetooth and it's reliable, you'll have no problems.
You can hear it in the next apartment and one floor down. I've had to turn it down so as to not disturb the neighbors. The bass can be overwhelming. My biggest gripe is that it has great omniderectional sound but not great stereo sound. That's because there's no way to turn off the rear speakers. They in turn interfere with the front speakers, messing up the stereo separation and imaging.
I don't have any Oi products and use it as a speaker exclusively. Yes, it's a good price although you can sometimes find the non-Qi model (under anther brand) for about $59 on sale. Like so many other recording media companies, TDK doesn't design or make audio products -- they merely stamp their names on Chinese stuff.

Storms topple New England's trees, raising residents' fearsBy KATHARINE Q. SEELYE
The NEW YORK TIMES | December 04,2012New York Times Photo
A tree broken during Hurricane Sandy sits atop a house in Munsey Park, N.Y., on Nov. 2.WILBRAHAM, Mass. First came the tornado, which felled five big trees and sent them crashing down on half the house, forcing Heather Mercier and Ellie Tobiasz to move into a mobile home on their property while the house was being repaired.
Several weeks later, a microburst with ferocious winds tore up another tree by its roots and smashed it into the mobile home. Three months after that, an early blizzard knocked down two more big trees, wrecking the remaining part of their house.
Youd think we lived in Kansas, said Mercier, 52, a retired police officer on disability. Things like this dont happen in western Massachusetts.
But as residents across New England are realizing, violent, Wizard of Oz-like storms do happen here. And for some, the regions iconic sugar maples, birches and oaks majestic towers that provide shade in the summer and colorful splendor in the fall are no longer a source of pride but of terror.
The branches were like daggers sticking out of my roof, through the windows, through the floors, Mercier said.
Although Hurricane Sandy was not as destructive in New England as it was in New York and New Jersey, its high winds still blew over tens of thousands of trees in the region, pulling down utility lines and leaving millions of homeowners in the dark. Last year, a half-dozen tornadoes some with winds as high as 160 mph ripped through Springfield, Mass., just west of here, killing three people, injuring 200 and leaving 500 homeless. A few months later, Tropical Storm Irene decimated parts of Vermont, washing away homes, businesses and roadways, and bringing down more trees.
All of the wreckage, costing hundreds of millions of dollars, and the fear it has engendered have led to something of a miniwar on trees here, with some property owners cutting them down pre-emptively, even when trunks and branches show no signs of weakness.
People were envisioning having entire trees crashing down on their houses and there was a lot of panic, said Phil Cambo, president of Northern Tree Service, a tree-removal company that serves much of New England.
During the 2011 tornado, microburst and blizzard, he said, his phones rang off the hook. As Hurricane Sandy made its way up the Atlantic Coast a month ago, many homeowners were on the phone again.
People are looking at trees near their homes in a different manner, said Ed Miga, superintendent of Wilbrahams Department of Public Works. Its no longer, This is a nice shade tree. Its This tree could fall on my house.
Springfield lost tens of thousands of trees during last years tornadoes and early snowstorm, costing $38 million for tree cleanup alone, said Edward P. Casey, the city forester.
When we were taking trees down after the tornadoes, people were terrified, Casey said. They would say, `Take the big one down, its going to crush my house, he said.
Despite the fear and damage, many residents, towns and organizations insist their presence is worth the risk.
Trees not only add character and beauty to a property, but they also benefit the environment, trapping carbon dioxide, one of the major contributing greenhouse gases, and releasing oxygen. And they help protect against erosion and maintain the balance of the ecosystem.
Several storm-battered towns across New England have undertaken extensive replanting programs though many programs encourage the planting of smaller trees, like fruit trees and dogwoods, rather than the pines and maples that, when mature, can cause the most damage.
Many New England towns authorize local tree wardens to determine the health of shade trees and ban their removal unless they pose a hazard. Springfield has a significant tree ordinance under which a homeowner needs a permit to trim or cut down any tree that is more than 36 inches in diameter or more than 75 years old, even if it is on private property, Casey said.
If the tree is structurally unsound, he will issue a permit. But if it is healthy, the homeowner must petition the parks commission before trimming or removing it.
Homeowners dont want to accept that, Casey said.
Some people are still angry and upset. But I leave them with the idea that if I thought the tree was dangerous, it would be removed.
Utility companies often bear the brunt of complaints during a storm when homeowners lose power, and utilities blame the trees. Trees are the No. 1 cause of power outages, said Mike Durand, a spokesman for Nstar, which serves eastern Massachusetts.
Of particular concern are those trees near the big transmission lines, which carry power to thousands of customers.
In August, a single tree that fell on a transmission line in Greenwich, Conn., took out power to 30,000 customers. The blackout of 2003 began when a tree fell on a transmission line in Ohio, setting off a cascade of events that shut off power to 55 million people in eight states and Canada.
Still, when Nstar started cutting down trees to clear transmission lines in Needham, a western suburb of Boston, homeowners were up in arms. The town is a designated Tree City USA, which means it receives assistance for forestry programs and takes great pride in the leafy canopies that shade its streets and homes.
Mark McDonough, a Needham resident and a Realtor, said that losing the trees changes the character of the town, and that mature trees improve a propertys value. Its harder to sell a home if you have no trees, he said.
Kim Pelletier, another Needham resident, said that a large tree fell on her property during Hurricane Sandy but that it did not hit the house and did not inspire her to cut down other trees.
These trees have been here a lot longer than we have and they have withstood a lot so far, she said. You cant safeguard against everything. Otherwise you lose the point of living.MORE IN Wire NewsCATANIA, Sicily Nearly 100 migrants who reported being at sea for 12 days arrived in Sicily on...

We can select creative producers who only specialize in animation video for those jobs in which animation is required. In order to deliver a video that is ready to use, we manage the final polish or editing work needed to get you a technically exceptional product. Once your final videos have been selected for purchase, we make sure to review and collect all of the necessary talent, music, location, etc. releases you will need to own and confidently use your video(s) immediately on the channels you specify. The best part of the production process is the premiere or "viewing party" where we get to sit down with you and your coworkers to showcase the exceptional video (or videos) our process helped to create. Poptent is built on the philosophy that the real test of a great video is in how well it performs. As the final stage of any project we work on, we always ask to sit down with you after the campaign is completed to see how well our video(s) helped achieved the KPIs identified for the project.Pre-Launch

The reason we prefer the term "video content" as opposed to "video ad," is because "content" implies usefulness. In social media it is implied that in order for people to choose to watch your videos you must offer them something of value. "Ads" rarely offer anything of value. We hope these Poptent case studies will leave you inspired to do more with your next video campaign, no matter what the subject.

Poptent is so excited to announce that we have merged with Userfarm, Europe's largest and most powerful crowdsourcing community. Together we ...
Poptent helped us find our brand voice in a unique way through their crowdsourcing approach. We were able to find talent who embraced our core message and delivered in fun, engaging ways through video. We selected a piece that was used in both in house and mass marketing communication efforts. Very emotional, very right for Michaels. It was a huge success. The team also was great to work with and helped guide us through this new form of marketing.
The video has been extremely well received. We recently showed it at a conference for all the Ulta general managers as well as our National Sales meeting and it had many people in both meetings crying (that's a good thing at Philosophy). Many people said it reminded them of when the brand first started. That is a huge compliment to the team!
Really professional service from the Poptent staff (timely, responsive, etc.) and frankly surprising creative from their community. The creative output definitely competes within anything a big agency can deliver. The best part about Poptent? Their flexibility. When I made a request to see a video pitch first for one of my projects (before making a final selection) Poptent changed their offerings to include one where the creators are asked to provide a video pitch before producing the final product. This allowed Dell to add some final creative direction to the finished piece, + send our electronics to the winning creator to work with.
Our first pilot project with Poptent was a real success. The quality of the work was outstanding and the Poptent creators were able to capture the cultural tone we were looking for in these videos. We look forward to our next project together.
This was our first time working with Poptent and they all helped make it a very pleasant and rewarding experience. We really appreciate the hard work that all of the creators did on our behalf. They all delivered great spots that really feel like part of our unified campaign and highlight the uniqueness of AnimalVision. We look forward to sharing them with the world when we launch the program later this year and know that they'll help get the consumers as excited about AnimalVision as we are!
The project was fantastic! We had a few good submissions, but none at the caliber of "A Letter to Mom." It was digital, social and mass media ready. The only editing we did was to ensure a few of the shoes used in the spot mirrored what we had in store at that time of year. The video thought, production and quality impressed everyone from our SVP of Marketing to the CEO of Brown Shoe. So much so that Diane Sullivan, our CEO, even presented our crowdsourcing information to a conference of other retail CEOs.

Get a life.
This thread is regarding post #280 by forums.freebsd.org member "bbzz" which is the fifth post from the top of the page:
That post has a picture of beastie hanging tux which just shows how appalling the amount of anti-linux crap there is in the BSD forums which is I guess them whining about how linux is so much more superior to their crappy little BSDs and how they are too up their asses to switch to linux from BSD.
Granted, it is in BSD forums and not here so it seems reasonable to think that we should ignore it. But unfortunately freebsd forums is open to viewing by anyone so this sort of BSD anti-linux crap always get out and end up with M$ and M$ trolls/zealots who that use it to hinder linux's advancement.
So we must do something about this shit. We shouldn't care that it's just freebsd forums ( i.e. troll forums) and thus just ignore it. We must do something about it, get them to shut thier crap about how BSD is better then linux.
Suggestions, my fellow linux users and anti-BSD friends?
Get a life.
I suggest you get a life. You do not seem to have any form of personal entertainment of contact with others besdies trolling forums.
1) There is joke around that "BSD user is a latent user of proprietary software". That's because of their license it's likely to step into proprietary bsd fork. It has happened before for ages.
2) Yet this approach plays a bad joke on them. They thought that if they will pad interests of proprietary "owners", they will come and help. They indeed come and then took away all the code into their proprietary dens, making proprietary forks. As it's easy to guess, they "forgot" to return improvements "because competitors will be able to use them!". This resulted in global project slowdown. *BSDs are 10 years older than Linux. Yet Linux outperformed them all. Because such guys are forced to return changes due to GPL license. Ha-ha, what a FAIL for BSDs. These days even long-term supporters like Apache and Yahoo are moving Linux. Because Linux is a way better than any BSD around.
3) I think you don't have to do anything bad to their site. After all they've already been hacked by automatic trojan recently. Doing things like that manually is illegal. Yet if you want to answer 'em for their pictures, I have one better picture. Which shows true state of things these days . Funny BSD vs Linux pic.

For the record, the title of the thread in question is "It's all about jokes, funny pics...". It seemed relevant to mention that here to give any other readers some context.
Wait-a-minute. You mean a "...Bullshitdistro", such as yourself, is trying to bullshit about "Hatred against Linux in FreeBSD forums" ?.
You've been trolling so long now that you're confused, lost,... you're not "trolling" anymore, you're just "tripping" (over yourself). I'm sorry to hear that.
Dude, pleeeez stop "trolling" around so much, find constructive things to do, like maybe a calming, and soulful read like "History of Unix", ... ?
Anyway, good luck, and keep Trippin' (err sry, I meant Truckin').
Oh lol, I see BSD guys preferred to resort to censorship to sort out all unpleasant threads (even if they contained trolls). Good luck with this approach. Yet for some reason Linux people usually do not have to resort censorship. Oh lol, when some system is so crappy that you have to censor posts, it's just hillarious.

A century of faithful learning
Class of 2014 is St. Mary's 100th
The senior students at St. Mary High School readying for this week's commencement ceremony will walk out of the gymnasium Friday night with more than a diploma. Those 20 teenagers will also take with them the legacy, tradition and faith that they share with thousands who came before them.This year's round of graduates mark the 100th class at Dell Rapids' faith-based high school. Established in 1910 by the Catholic Church, St. Mary Academy began churning out life-long learners and graduated its first class in 1915.St. Mary's senior Anna Wolles spent this year serving as student body president. She said she's humbled when she reflects on the history of the school and its impact on her family."I'm so proud to be a part of the tradition of Catholic education," Wolles said. "I'm a third generation student so I'm very proud to go to school here."Although education and teaching standards are vastly different now than in 1915, Jesus Christ is still at the forefront of the St. Mary Catholic School day, she said."I can always lean on my faith," Wolles said. 1910 - St. Mary Academy founded1915 - First graduating class1964 - Convent built1957 - High school constructed

Baseball Heritage Museum to stick at Colonial Arcade
Blog Entry:
February 21, 2013 9:35 AM | Author: KEVIN KLEPS
Monsters center Brad Malone displays the jersey the American Hockey League team will wear for Browns Night on Saturday at Quicken Loans Arena.
It might have been easier for Bob Zimmer to move The Baseball Heritage Museum after a
flood last month
caused significant damage to a place built on memories, and a deep passion for America's pastime.
Instead, Zimmer, who is also involved in the revitalization of League Park, and the museum he founded in 1999 will stay put in the Colonial Arcade.
A busted pipe in the ceiling destroyed some memorabilia — the baseball and radio broadcast exhibit on the lower level was hit the hardest — but the shows will go on, even if space is at a premium for the time being.
"We're working hard on trying to do recovery," Zimmer said. "We have some positive things going on. Management (at the Arcade) is working hard to help us. It's going to be a long process.
"We're going to have 4,000 square feet of space shut down for the next few months. We have about a thousand square feet still operating. We're still doing programs, still functioning."
On April 8, the museum will be part of a celebration centered on the Indians' home opener against the Yankees.
One hundred bicycle riders will gather at the West Side Market and travel to League Park to check on the progress of the construction. From there, they will head downtown to The Baseball Heritage Museum, then bike to Progressive Field for the late-afternoon opener.
Zimmer said there will be an auction to raise money for the museum that day, and organizer Bob Polk also will be raising funds for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Cleveland and the Cleveland Baseball Federation.
There are more events on the museum's summer schedule, including a Satchel Paige exhibit July 6.
"Our hope and intention is to stay," Zimmer said of the museum, which has been hit by two floods since April 2012. "We're also working on the League Park project. We believe strongly that the main museum needs to be downtown."
Zimmer said he doesn't have a figure for the financial damage the museum sustained, but his home to many artifacts was more about emotions than finances.
"The (insurance) adjuster was there for about four days (last week)," Zimmer said. "The radio and broadcast exhibit was pretty much under water. The baseball exhibit lost a number of things that were stored in a closet. I'm not sure what the number is, but how do you really determine a number for this type of stuff?"
You don't.
Instead, you depend on the support of the baseball purists and others who want the museum to stay put.
Zimmer said the museum hopes to get some disaster relief from the National Endowment for Humanities, a government grant that typically is awarded to cultural institutions such as museums, archives, libraries, universities, and public television and radio stations.
"We're still operating and functioning," Zimmer said.
Hopefully, that won't change.
And neither should the city that hosts Zimmer's treasures from Major League Baseball and the Negro Leagues.
Monsters change colors
The Lake Erie Monsters are going all out for Browns Night at Quicken Loans Arena on Saturday.
The American Hockey League team's third annual event will feature appearances from Browns players Joe Haden, Greg Little, Jordan Norwood, Jason Pinkston and Billy Winn. Former Browns such as Hanford Dixon and Bob Golic also will be on hand.
Perhaps more importantly, the team will be sporting these sweet brown and orange jerseys for the 7:30 p.m. game against the Texas Stars. Fans will be able to bid on the jerseys during a silent auction on the concourse, with the proceeds going to the Monsters Community Fund.
Seen, but not heard
The NFL scouting combine is under way in Indianapolis, and according to reports, Browns president Joe Banner and vice president of player personnel Mike Lombardi won't be among the many league executives who make themselves available to the media. According to ESPN Cleveland's
Tony Grossi
, the Browns' new men in charge aren't among the 45 NFL coaches and executives scheduled to appear in the combine media room the next three days.
Banner and Lombardi don't owe the media anything, obviously, but they're certainly well aware that Browns fans treat every offseason day as if it's the beginning or end of their optimism for the coming season.
Obviously, it's more important that the team's primary decision makers are in Indy doing their homework. Banner and Lombardi will be doing just that.
They'll also have time to address the media. Heck, it wasn't that long ago that Lombardi
a member of the media.
