David Lopez, Microsoft Fellow and Master Trainer, shared his ideas on how to use Microsoft Sway to present classroom content you already have created in Office and make it spring to life. All you really need to do is put images, text, videos, and more in order and Sway makes it look good. You can import content from PowerPoint files, PDFs and Word documents for a quick Sway makeover to present to students.

Motion Controls Coming To PS3 This Fall
Sony has announced plans to release a motion controller, not unlike the remotes used to play game software on the popular Nintendo Wii, for its PlayStation 3 home entertainment system this fall.
Formerly code-named "Arc," the "Move" controller was officially unveiled during a Wednesday evening press event at the annual Game Developer's Conference in San Francisco. The device, which resembles a black remote with a luminescent blue ball attached to the end, will also require the Playstation Eye camera device to function.
"We'd like to think of this as the next generation of motion gaming," Peter Dille, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA), told Maggie Shiels of BBC News following the announcement. "We are confident that when we look back in five years time, this will be seen as a seminal moment for PlayStation."
At least three-dozen third party game developers and publishers have already signed on to support the PS3 move, including Electronic Arts, who went on to announce that they will be bringing a motion-controlled version of their latest Lord of the Rings game to the PS3. In addition, Sony will support the Move with 20 games during the 2010 fiscal year, including SOCOM 4, Little Big Planet, a Wii Sports clone called Sports Champions, and the Move Party minigame compellation.
The move is an attempt to combat the popularity of the Wii, which has sold twice as many hardware units worldwide as the PS3, as well as Microsoft's upcoming Natal motion gaming system. "I think we offer a great opportunity to graduate from the Wii to the Playstation 3," SCEA chief executive Jack Trenton told Reuters on Wednesday.
No official price has been announced, but Reuters reports that the Move will be available as part of a package — presumably with a software title — for less than $100.

Bear hug!
Aw, don't worry, they're friends!
An orphaned bear cub wandered into a familys back yard in Podvrh, Slovenia about a month ago. The family has not officially adopted the bear cub, named Medo, but they and their dog have bonded with him; the family plans to build a fenced-in area for the cub. (Srdjan Zivulovic/Reuters)

The Wiley Advantage
* Includes brief description of the approaches framework followed by example analysis.
"This admirable collection of papers by some of the most eminent
scholars in the field of media studies combines breadth of coverage
with depth of analysis, and programmatic methodological statements
with detailed empirical studies. It will be an indispensable text
in its field for many years to come." Andreas H. Jucker, Professor

"A useful entry point for anyone seeking to understand the
diverse approaches found under the umbrella of media 'discourse'."
Jean Aitchison, Professor of Language and Communication, University

methods and make them work on specific instances from the press,
radio and television. Readers can test and compare the
applicability and relevance of various approaches and adopt them to
their own examination of the media." Ulrike H. Meinhof, University
of Bradford
"It would be difficult to dream up a more impressive list of names for a collection of papers on media discourse...I started reading with high expectations and was not disappointed... I would strongly recommend this book not only to students of media discourse in particular, but to anyone with an interest in cultural studies, text and discourse analysis or indeed any aspect of language in action, not excluding visual semiotics. It would make an excellent key reader for students in these or related fields." Thomas Bloor, Language Studies Unit, Aston University

Hello Again Friend of a Friend
This has been quite an eventful week--my friends Peter and Lauren had their beautiful engagement party, our company CA Creative has a brand-new website as of this morning, my second draft of an introduction for what will hopefully be a cookbook sometime in the near future is really close to being done, and I finally saw the new Picasso exhibit at the Gagosian (which, by the way, was about as perfect as exhibits get--romantic and moving and just out-and-out flawless). In fact, it's been a busy month in general, and as exciting as that is, I'm looking forward to next weekend when I'll be on a nighttime bus to Montauk for a long weekend of complete relaxation sans Blackberry.
One of the best things about Montauk is the uniform (or lack thereof), which consists of nothing more than what I'm wearing in the pics above--a casual tee, a perfect pair of shorts, and a big backpack to bring to the beach. Here comes the sun. Hopefully.
I'm wearing an Isabel Marant shirt, Siwy shorts, Proenza Schouler belt, Guiseppe Zannotti shoes, and bracelets made by my friends Elizabeth Monson and Mark Iantosca. All pictures taken by Mark Iantosca (he's a multi-talented guy). xo

Title: | Abrupt variations in South American monsoon rainfall during the Holocene based on a speleothem record from central-eastern Brazil |
Author: | Stríkis, Nicolás M.; Cruz, Francisco W.; Cheng, Hai; Karmann, Ivo; Edwards, R. Lawrence; Vuille, Mathias; Wang, Xianfeng; de Paula, Marcos S.; Novello, Valdir F.; Auler, Augusto S. |
Copyright year: | 2011 |
Abstract: | Well-dated high-resolution oxygen isotope records of speleothems in central-eastern Brazil spanning from 1.3 to 10.2 kyr B.P. reveal that the occurrence of abrupt variations in monsoon precipitation is not random. They show a striking match with Bond events and a significant pacing at ∼800 yr, a dominant periodicity present in sea surface temperature records from both the North Atlantic and equatorial Pacific Oceans that is possibly related to periods of low solar activity (high 14C based on the atmospheric Δ14C record). The precipitation variations over central-eastern Brazil are broadly antiphased with the Asian and Indian Monsoons during Bond events and show marked differences in duration and structure between the early and late Holocene. Our results suggest that these abrupt multicentennial precipitation events are primarily linked to changes in the North Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). Anomalous cross-equatorial flow induced by negative AMOC phases may have modulated not only the monsoon in South America but also affected El Niño−like conditions in the tropical Pacific during the Holocene. |

Here's a Valentine's week excerpt from one of my favorite advice columns!
Dear B. Marty Barry,I am the former CEO of a bank holding corporation, and I have been dating a hedge fund manager for quite some time.
For Valentine's Day two years ago, I gave my darling a romantic weekend in Jamaica, and she reciprocated with an expensive Italian bike.
Last year, I upped the ante and took her on a two week vacation to Spain, and she responded with the gift of a candy apple red Lamborghini.
Recklessly expensive, I know, but ... that's us!
We loved being in love in the no-cost-is-too-high Wall Street culture.
This year, things have changed.
My love has let it be known that she will show her devotion with a convenient case of amnesia should she be called to testify about some things I said to a group of investors last spring regarding the strength of my company's worthless stock.
I'm in Federal lock-up right now, but I was planning to send her a box of stale, waxy chocolates one of the guards is selling on the sly.
Her gift is a lot better. I'm worried that she'll be offended.
Is our relationship doomed?Incarcerated in Carson City
Dear Incarcerated I.C.C.,Yes, but it was doomed as soon as you adopted that tit-for-tat Valentine Gift policy. Your romantic economy was locked in an inflationary spiral of the worst possible kind, and a day of reckoning was bound to come.
It sounds like a global financial meltdown was all it took to scuttle your love boat.
The question is: how do you recover?
The box of waxy chocolates is a toxic asset. Nothing good can come of it, and yet someone is going to have to gulp them down and not complain about it before things can even begin to get better.
Perhaps your hedge fund manager is that person.
You might be surprised.
And if she's caught lying about your insider trading activities, she could wind up in the slammer right beside you before the year is out.
Wouldn't that be a lovely outcome?
Adjoining cells with free meals and lots of "together" (but still separate) time could be the ideal way for two lovebirds to ride out this financial storm. It could happen!
But then ... I'm an optimist!Sincerely,
B. Marty Barry.
Is B. Marty right?
Is it a sign that we have a lasting romance if someone can accept our lame gifts without complaining?

Bought this to expand our kitchen space----it looks great and very professional. We had a little trouble trying to figure out how to hang it since the studs did not match up with our wall---however, our real estate agent suggested we bolt a piece of plywood to the wall (painted the color of the wall) and then attach the rack to the plywood. You'd never even notice the wood behind it. It seems very sturdy, with lots of pots and pans hanging from it. It is a great addition to our kitchen!!
Easy to put up, sturdy and looks just like the picture--very handsome and practical in our kitchen. We have 9 heavy All Clad pots & pans hanging from the hooks (11 hooks came with it, not 12 as advertized) and 2 large stock pots sitting on the top shelf. Great value compared to the high dollar pot racks we'd been pricing at gormet kitchen specialty stores. [The package was missing one washer needed for installation, however--not a big deal.]
This product worked great, the holes to mount it were 32 inches apart (16 on center studs, so you can mount it to studs due to the weight of the pans) and it worked out well. the directions looked like they were drawn by a 6 yr old though...probably could use better instructions, but the quality of the materials, the finish of the metal etc, all worked well, I'm happy w/ the purchase.
Looked great from the website. I was impressed when it arrived. It took 2 people to install but it was easy with the right tools. My wife wanted one for a while and I resisted. Stupid mistake. I should have bought it sooner. Our kitchen looks so much better.
Great price for an incredibly solid kitchen rack. Everyone seems to love it-- Very nice looking and extremely well made. Looks much pricier than it is!
Easy to put together. Looks great! I needed this space saver in my small kitchen
The instructions say to only to screw into studs...I used heavy duty toggle bolts instead. I have a ten piece 2mm copper and iron set hanging from it. Holds ALOT of weight. Not suggesting anyone to do this unless they really know what they are doing though. Check your hardware weight limits and you can really hang this anywhere.
was a little difficult to install but really looks great very functional saved room in our small kitchen
We needed additional storage space in our smallish kitchen. As I'd just received a new set of cookware, this sounded like a great solution. The item is sturdy, with a nice finish, plenty of hooks and relatively easy to install (hung directly on wall studs). The dimensions were exactly as described, delivery was quick - happy overall.
I love this pot rack!! and the price was great! My husband and I hung it over my sink above the window. Fit perfectly - no toggles needed - screwed right in the studs.

I say he is the greatest thing to happen to free speech since the First Amendment. he is hated and despised...by the US. He hasn't actually broken any US laws ( mainly because he's not a US citizen)...just made quite a few folks over here look mighty ridiculous. Sorry if I sound harsh...this is persecution.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Pau Gasol of Spain reacts after scoring and drawing a foul, as Oklahoma City Thunder's Serge Ibaka stands in the background during the first half the opening game of a first-round NBA basketball playoff series Sunday, April 18, 2010, in Los Angeles. (AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill) |
Lakers' inside duo overpower Thunder 87-79
LOS ANGELES—Pau Gasol scored 19 points, Andrew Bynum added 13 and the Los Angeles Lakers used their twin 7-footers to dominate inside against the Oklahoma City Thunder, winning 87-79 Sunday in the opener of their playoff series.
Kobe Bryant added 21 points on 6 of 19 shooting after missing four of the final five regular season games to rest his swollen right knee and broken right index finger.
Kevin Durant led the Thunder with 24 points -- under the 30.1 average of the NBA's youngest-ever scoring champion. Former UCLA star Russell Westbrook added 23.
Bynum returned from a 13-game absence because of a strained right Achilles' tendon, teaming with Gasol to pull down a combined 25 rebounds and deny the Thunder key second-chance baskets.
Game 2 in the best-of-7 series is Tuesday at Staples Center.
History is on the Lakers' side against the NBA's youngest team, with an average age of 25 years and 42 days. When coach Phil Jackson wins Game 1 of any series, his teams are 45-0. That includes a 24-0 mark with Chicago and 23-0 with the Lakers.
The Lakers came out blazing against the overwhelmed Thunder, pounding the ball inside to Bynum and Gasol while shooting 54 percent and taking a 27-13 lead in the first quarter.
In the playoffs for the first time since moving from Seattle two years ago, the Thunder shot 26 percent, leading to their fewest points in an opening period all season.
Oklahoma City settled down the rest of the way, but never got closer than six points against the defending champions, who are seeking a third straight trip to the NBA finals.
With Bryant, Gasol, Derek Fisher and Ron Artest on the bench to start the fourth, Jordan Farmar scored the Lakers' first five points despite a strained left hamstring to stretch a six-point lead to 11.
Bryant and Lamar Odom hit consecutive 3-pointers, extending the lead the Lakers held the entire game to 77-66.
A pair of free throws by Durant got the Thunder to 79-73 with 3 1/2 minutes remaining. They never got anytcloser. Fisher hit a 3-pointer that pushed the Lakers' lead to 84-74 before Bryant picked up his fifth foul.
Westbrook carried the Thunder early in the third, and Durant scored their final five points to leave them trailing 64-56 going into the final 12 minutes. Fisher, Artest and Odom were in foul trouble and Bryant scored a single point on a free throw as they played to a draw in the third.
The Thunder outscored the Lakers 26-20 in the second quarter, when Los Angeles got away from the inside game of Bynum and Gasol and settled for jump shots instead. Their 17-point lead dwindled to 47-39 at the break.
Westbrook scored the Thunder's final eight points of the half and their first two of the third, drawing them within six.
NOTES: Lakers C DJ Mbenga had retinal surgery on his left eye after getting struck in practice Saturday, his second hit in the head in two days. ... Lakers G Sasha Vujacic sat out with a severely sprained left ankle. ... In keeping with tradition, Jackson wore his most recent championship ring from 2009. "It's a very difficult ring to wear," he said. "I watch shaking hands with people, particularly those who want to squeeze your hand really hard." ... Celeb sightings: Jack Nicholson, Andy Garcia, Teri Hatcher, New York Jets QB Mark Sanchez, Glenn Frey, Dyan Cannon, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Penny Marshall and David Arquette.

For years, the Missouri Lottery conducted its daily drawings using mechanical ball machines.
In 2004, the lottery replaced its drawing equipment with a computerized drawing system that generates the winning numbers with a Random Number Generator (RNG) — a computer program that instantly produces random numbers.
Several other states have switched to a computerized drawing system, but the concept has not swept through all the states, perhaps due to player pushback.
Since computerized drawings entered the scene, lottery players have voiced concerns. Because there is no way to witness the exact method the computer generates the numbers, there will always remain a degree of doubt as to how random the numbers really are.
The Missouri Lottery, by way of its inside-look video, hopes to erase some of those doubts, and to tout the system's benefits as more efficient, less costly, and more secure.
In the "Reel Lottery" video (shown below), Producer Frank Finley takes viewers on a "behind the scenes" look at the Missouri Lottery drawing show.

Until people believe that the non-physical computer machines are more fun than the ping-pong ball machines to view. People will most likely view the machines as rigged in the favor of state.
They can hold way to much data on past results. Perhaps just to verify they are working statisically within bounds but the whole thing smells like rigged slot machines to provide money supposedly for schools.
However only a small portion of money really ends up there.
I like the concept of actually seeing my balls choosen --I hope my state in illinois never goes to RNG.
I'll stop playing that very same day.
*We may see something that isn't there because of what we expect to see
Or conversely, we may not see something because we don't expect to see it.*
How can anyone ever trust machines that one can never see, feel, and hear ?!
Note they use marketing catch phrases "Advances in computer technology" "new approach". "Because there is no way to witness the exact method the computer generates the numbers, there will always remain a degree of doubt as to how random the numbers really are. The Missouri Lottery, by way of its inside-look video, hopes to erase some of those doubts, and to tout the system's benefits as more efficient, less costly, and more secure." Less costly to use their retired machines and ballsets, broadcast live no frills draws on the web. No fancy stuff, just draws where everyone can see for themselves which balls drop. Sales would probably increase exponentially.
Good luck to everyone!
The Tennessee Lottery did something like this about a year ago. Their video did nothing to convince me that their drawing was fair and balanced. They still retreat behind closed doors only to emerge several minutes later with the "winning numbers".
I want to see the balls being flung around in a clear plastic container. I want to see the balls drop into a clear plastic chute. I want to see the numbers on the balls.
Until that day comes, I will firmly believe the Tennessee lotto is rigged in some shape, form, or fashion. I also believe any state that uses RNG to determine winning numbers do so to their advantage; the player can go to the River Styx.
Not only that, but the whole world got to witness how easy it is for a computerized drawing to become corrupted, as weeks of drawings were tainted, and thousands of tickets had no chance of winning, because of a "programming error".

See the window to the left. That is the draw room. You see the hallway they are in?
That is where you have to stand to watch the drawing. You see how narrow it is?
That is a regular working hallway in the building. When I went to cash my 5 out of 6 hit last year
on the MO Lotto I ask to watch the midday drawing. In the very short process I was interrupted
from watching it 3 times by passersby trying to use the hallway.
I have said it all many times before. And I will say it again.
Don't Chase... Compare and Narrow
The Cheaper the Cost the Higher the Profit
Many Winners to You.
And again, I yell about something, and something is done about it! I have kept saying, show us how the computerized numbers are drawn so we have less fear of these drawings being used. Unfortunately the @*&^! BoobTube site won't allow me to download. Anyway now hehehe I can write my own program to mimic the computerized one. Doh! it's in Missouri, too far away! How about Pennsylvania Midday? use the same software??? We're there!!!
By the way, don't we want it to NOT be too random? if it's completely random then I might as well not play knowing that only 50% of the money I play will be returned. Quick Picks are no fun!!!!
PS- how come the Lottery drawing room & hallway looks slightly less inviting than the gas chamber where they execute serial killers?
i trust the ball machines way more than i trust that RNG.....it looks to fish and it seems like they have the control all they way in their hands.....
my state rng errors "tn"
made me think, we need "open source" code to the public LOL
if we could all View the code, look into it, run it our selfs,
if such a thing happened, someone in the public would of freaking noticed TN massive Beep code was missed up beyond belief
and they could show visiters the "open source code running on their pc, unedited form what the public has
MAYBE just , MAYBE then I start trusting it
when i can use their software my self,
and see for my self if the software for the draws is worth the harddrive space its on
i hope i we never see the day thatpb or MM go to the dark side
their about the only 2 games left that due to marketing/trust they wont Dare Touch with RNG
, in the years ahead, am sure we see more and more states going RNG over time
their is 1 thing i like about that video
"3 diff pc's can do drawings"
will good for them, , they have backups
i remb when ball drawings get delayed ever now and then a hour" rare, but it happens"
with backups, they can be like, this broken, next, lol no hour delays like if a ball draw goes wrong
When a man has to tell you how honest he is....
........ in the long run........
Does anyone know how many states choose their number this way,
and are there any live drawings.
Click State Lottery Report Card in the Results menu.
ain't nothing like the real thing, ball based numbers generated and out in the open for all to see as it happens. One thing about computers that can't be denied.....Garbage IN, Garbage OUT!
Nuff Said
I like this forum because it is helping the lotto players push back. If we dont push back against those awful RNG's then God forbid but they will try to use them for Mega Millions and Powerballs. I know the adminstrators for the two interstate games are watching very closely to see how people react to RNG's. We cant let them one day be able to say "see, it has worked for Tennessee and Indiana so it should work here"
That money's gone fo ever

James Parrott is also known as "Paul Parrott" and those in the know may remember him as the director of many of Laurel and Hardy's best films (such as the Oscar-winning MUSIC BOX as well as HELPMATES and PARDON US). However, before directing Stan and Ollie, his brother Charley Chase, the Little Rascals and others, he was a silent comedian himself--having appeared in well over a hundred films! Sadly, although Parrott was an accomplished comic, this film is far from his best and is rather lame compared to other similar films of the era. Part of this is because the film isn't all that funny and I was not thrilled to see the old cliché of the "scared black man" used for laughs. Back then, seeing a black man acting like a fool when he thinks he saw a ghost was a big laugh-getting but today it is justifiably seen as insensitive (plus not all that funny). An additional problem is that the film was converted to film as the wrong speed. Silent films were hand-cranked at a rate ranging from about 16-22 frames per second but sound films are always played at 24 fps--and without compensating for this difference, silent films usually look very fast. Well, in this case they overcompensated and the characters move like they are acting in molasses. It's just too slow. Finally, there is a huge chunk of the film missing--a common problem with films made on old fashioned nitrate stock (which degrades quickly over time).The final verdict is that this is one of the more forgettable silent comedies and is only of interest to nuts like me who adore ALL silent comedies. Just don't expect gold with this one! For a better Parrott film, try POST NO BILLS--also on volume 2 of "The American Slapstick" DVD set.

What's On This Week
A daily updated summary of the week in TV.
From All Movie Guide: The producer of such films as The Day the World Ended (1956) and Requiem for a Gunfighter (1965), Alex Gordon's longtime friendship with beloved Western singer/star Gene Autry eventually lead the former Renown Pictures advertising and publicity man to a lucrative career in Hollywood. A native of London who served in WWII, Gordon returned from battle to take a position at Renown Pictures, running Gene Autry's fan club in his free time. Gordon eventually met the popular singing cowboy when he came to Blighty for a personal appearance, and when Gordon later moved to New York, Autry hired him as an advance man for his many U.S. tours. A natural transition to Hollywood followed soon thereafter, and, in 1954, Gordon landed his first production job in the Johnny Carpenter Western The Lawless Rider. Soon striking up a friendship with lawyer and Carpenter representative Samuel Z. Arkoff, Gordon joined Arkoff and partner Jim Nicholson's American International Pictures, eventually producing 18 films for the busy production company. A departure from AIP in 1957 found Gordon producing such pictures as The Underwater City (1962) and Requiem for a Gunfighter. In 1968, he headed a film restoration project at 20th Century Fox. Later working for the Gene Autry Foundation, Gordon remained with the organization for the remainder of his career. Alex Gordon died June 24, 2003, in Los Angeles following an extended illness. He was 80. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The City of Tulsa, Oklahoma and its Project Impact partners are very actively helping FEMA showcase the new FEMA Tornado Safe Room technology. FEMA worked with the College of Engineering at Texas Tech University to design in-residence Safe Rooms that can withstand tornadoes and other extreme wind hazards. The Safe Room is a new element of FEMA's National campaign, called Project Impact, to make America more disaster resistant.
The Tulsa Safe Room activities are highlighted by a FEMA initiated construction and demonstration pilot project the city is conducting with the Home Builders' Association of Greater Tulsa, one of its Project Impact Partners. In order to speed the acceptance and application of the new safe room technology into the broader marketplace, FEMA is using funding received from the Partnership for Advancing Technologies in Housing (PATH) to conduct safe room pilot projects in Tulsa and several other communities at-risk from tornado hazards (Sioux City, IA., North Sioux City, SD., and South Sioux City, NB).
This FEMA/PATH initiative will support the cost of constructing the Tornado Safe Rooms in each community (at an estimated cost of $3,000 to $5,000 per unit), plus the documentation of the construction process so that other builders can more easily learn how the technology applies to real-world construction settings. Local builders would complete the actual construction.
The comprehensive Tulsa/ Home Builders Association pilot will provide at least 8 Safe Rooms, their locations will be geographically balanced for maximum exposure in the area, and there will be at least one safe Room constructed with handicapped access. They will be constructed in new and existing homes, and several of the various designs recommended by FEMA/Texas Tech will be used. The Home Builders have agreed to oversee the demonstration program, and to provide roughly a 50% match in services - such as education, labor and materials, plus mentoring for amateur builders who build or renovate non-profit homes. The Tulsa Project Impact Partnership is excited that two of the sites will be featured in the Tulsa Parade of Homes, which will be held June 5-13.
Another Project Impact Partner, State Farm Insurance Company, is underwriting several other activities related to the project, in order to help Tulsans learn about Safe Rooms. These activities include training sessions at the Home Builders' Association on June 3, a daytime session for builders and an evening session for the public. The City is publicizing Safe Rooms and the training sessions with utility bill stuffers. Also, the City will produce an educational video about Safe Room construction.
These shelters, highly recommended by President Clinton last week in Oklahoma, are designed to provide protection from the forces of extreme winds as high as 250 mph. Some are built of reinforced concrete and some are built with wood-and-steel walls securely anchored to concrete slab foundations or floors. Safe Rooms can be built above ground or below, within a home or attached to one. They are designed to protect people from flying debris and other tornado-related hazards. Properly equipped safe rooms can also shelter residents from intruders and other dangers.
FEMA has prepared the booklet, Taking Shelter From the Storm: Building a Safe Room Inside Your House, for homeowners and builders. The booklet includes:
- A homeowner risk assessment worksheet
- Guidance for selecting a shelter design
- Detailed construction plans for builders and contractors
- Cost estimates.
Copies of this free publication can be obtained by calling FEMA's toll free number, (888) 565-3896.

Judge upholds prison sentence for hit-and-run driver
Kenneth Pierce sentenced in 1992 case
A judge in Broward County upheld the prison sentence of a Davie man convicted in the 1992 hit-and-run death of a 6-year-old girl.
Kenneth Pierce was originally sentenced to 60-years in Florida state prison. In 2000, two of the five counts were overturned and his sentenced was reduced to 40 years, and he was credited 2,759 days, or roughly 7 1/2 years, in prison.
But, somehow Pierce was given credit for each of the three counts, and with credit for gain time he would have walked out of prison a free man on Monday.
On Friday, the victim's family, along with the relatives of others involved, went to court to stop Pierce's release and ask the court to recognize this was a clerical error and that Pierce should serve the rest of his sentence as the original trial judge intended.
Broward Circuit Judge Lisa Porter agreed and ordered Pierce back to prison.
According to court documents, Pierce drove a pickup truck that ran off the road and over three girls who were playing in a puddle outside their home in Dania Beach on June 23, 1992. Nicole Rae Walker was killed. Two of her friends, Brooke Mansey and Michele Vittelo, were severely injured.
"I get a little more justice for my daughter. I am just delighted," said Suzanne Walker, Nicole Rae Walker's mother. "I just can't say that -- I am so elated and to know the fact he's not on the streets."
"I'm thankful. She remembers everything. It's just very hard," said Sherry Mansey, Brooke Mansey's mother.
Each year, the families hold a reunion on the day of the crash..
Turchin originally covered the case 20 years ago.

The big ideas began to unfold: attached housing, a community center, restaurants, hotels and a scaled-down harbor allowing small sail boats, rowboats and houseboats. More big ideas would follow.
Those ideas never materialized. The plan was never adopted. Other plans have remained stagnant because the city hasn't been able to attract the right funding to complement the hefty price tag.
Even as the developers attempted to help the city realize the marina's full potential, they projected that the cost to dredge and maintain the yacht harbor someday would become too costly.
That day has come. But now that the council has formed a standing committee and opened its meetings on the marina to the public, they have been determined to find a way to keep the marina as the "crown jewel" of the city even though the jewel has long since lost its glimmer.
"We can see that the problems are complex," Mayor Tony Santos said Monday night at a work session studying the marina shoreline and
45-year-old yacht harbor. "But I'm not sure they're insoluble."
The City Council heard more details Monday about the marina's problems.
The city doesn't have any immediate plans to dredge the two-mile channel and harbor, which have been silted up for the last several months.
Developing a "master development" plan that would examine all of the environmental, financial and regulatory constraints associated with operating the marina without a yacht harbor is the council's best option, city staff said.
Council members also got a glimpse of how that plan might look compared with other Bay Area marinas, which all in some way are struggling to stay afloat.
But while other marinas operate at a loss mainly because of high dredging costs most have something San Leandro lacks: a residential component and other types of development that generate a steady stream of revenue.
City officials have intentionally kept that option and, consequently, most developers at bay, citing the city's general plan policies and residents' objections as the reason.
The dilemma council members now face, Santos said, is whether the city isprepared to put down its guard and accept mixed-use development at the marina as well a multi-million dollar liability.
"How can we put all these things together to make the marina as financially viable as possible?" Santos asked in reference to the hypothetical situation.
Although council members were divided over which direction they should take the marina, residents were adamant in their responses: Past mistakes never can be made again.
Paul Nahm, chairman of the Chamber of Commerce's Marina Task Force, thanked the council for including the public in their discussions of the marina but challenged council members to get their priorities in order.
City officials have tried twice before to develop the marina, "but we should keep the opportunities open if we want to put the necessary development into the marina," he said. "We should keep the marina alive until we have somebody to put the millions into it."
John Manuel, president of the Marina Action Committee, said the council's efforts seemed too little too late, but he didn't want to see another development move forward without politicians and residents being on the same page.
"Let us all work together toward a conclusion that leaves no doubt as to how we feel about the marina being compromised, and that involvement in the decision making process be all inclusive," Manuel read from a statement before submitting it to the council.
In the end, council members agreed they didn't want to get burned again with another set of stalled plans and they vowed the marina dilemma will be solved under their watch.
"We're going to have to make a decision," Santos said. "It's tough sometimes to make a choice, but I believe we will do the right thing."

Working Women Vs Housewives
India is a land of opportunities and here women are doing
equally well in the job market. Unlike yester years women in India are becoming more
independent. They are vocal about their rights, straightforward in dealing with
problems and equally emotional about people they care about. Although, in this
fast paced life, there's no time, women in India are doing everything for
keeping a balance between work and life.
I was completely amazed to see some interesting women
centric job profiles coming up however women in India are capable of giving a
tough fight to its male counterpart in any given field. Working women are
always active. They are more focused about their goals in life and their
priorities. Although they may look ultra-professional from outside, they
actually have a very soft side inside. Working women are definitely more
serious about their relationships with their partners.
Woman staying at home like a regular housewife miss out
various fun. Their main priority is only to keep the house clean, cook, take
care of kids and watch daily soaps. They also gain weight fast because they
have no serious work to do. Indian housewives typically gain weight and are
found strolling in the neighborhood park. Unfortunately they realize about
their weight after a long time. While working women are always on their toes,
attending meetings, travelling, eating less oily food which eventually makes
them gorgeous. They keep themselves busy and their mind has enough room for
There are so many women in India, who loves to stay inside
however they never realize that by doing this they are killing their skills.
Sitting at house is like a drug addiction which will eventually make you dumb.
Working women surely knows this which is why they prosper. They are good at
everything from cooking to taking care of their partners.
They hardly indulge in small talks. They have a world of
their world and their independence is their greatest weapon to kick away their
blues. I don't know how happy Indian housewives are but I definitely know there
is huge lot of pressure over them. They have to listen to everyone and act
accordingly. They have less freedom which makes them vulnerable. In order to
break the monotony, women should seriously think about the pros and cons of
taking a working life or a life of house wife. It's perfectly fine to have a
choice and I respect everyone's view. These are only my opinion, feel free to
leave your comments.

2014 - Definitely A Year Of Selfies!
2014 saw a
meteoric rise of use of selfies. Frankly, I am doing this since 2004. Clicking
selfies was my pastime affair, I thoroughly enjoyed it. From Oscars to wedding
celebrations, couples to big time politicians, selfies from Mars to extreme
clicks from Burj Khalifa, everyone is so very addicted to this now. Narcissism at
its best but nobody is complaining. Taking selfies is one of the best thing one
could do to preserve a moment especially it's applicable for couples in
honeymoon, they can now flaunt their moments of joy with this wonderful thing.
One of my friends, who regularly post selfies
on Facebook, helped him to get an admirer for life, another girl who got huge
motivation by posting selfies on Instagram from her friends during her
post-breakup weight loss regime. She actually lost few more pounds! Posting
selfies on social networking platforms became a regular phenomenon in 2014.
change, people change, but the smile and pout of yours never changes. Clicking
selfies regularly eventually gives you an idea about your transformation, your
mood swings, and your life at large. It's a liberating experience for sure.
Other reason behind the meteoric rise of selfies is the advent of WhatsApp that
lets you share your image with your friends and family anytime. Selfies enable
you to make a good purchase decision while you are shopping all by yourself. Clicking selfies no more is regarded as
pompous rather it's the new cool that everyone is trying to wear these days. I
hope new things will come next year, new moments will be created in everyone's
life, and a brand new word will come
into existence. Till then, we are totally satisfied with these Selfies! Happy New
Year in advance.
P.S: Don't forget to click selfies and
post on Facebook. I am sure you will get those likes and comments!

Love in My Studio Apartment
I have a small studio apartment in some corner of this
earth, where I create dreams, I see them translating into realities. I speak
less because my mind always does things beyond the imagination of a human
being. Some people just do their regular jobs, they smile less, earn big money
but never dwell in simplicity, they are unable to create those fairytales, they
are mechanical, they are practical unlike me. My eyes always visualize the
unseen, my ears always hear the unheard, my body always travels beyond the
boundaries. I am no God, I am just normal creature who believes in miracles,
who believes in hopes, who loves criticism, who loves the chaos, who is so much
delectable, who never gets angry.
Lately, I have developed resistance to all the hard hitting
stones. I am learning to live, I am learning to take responsibility, I am doing
things I always desired. I have found Moksha in my living room, my heart is
pumping more, my mind is peaceful, I am in my own kingdom.
The factory of love that I have started is running fine; all
the lilies in my balcony are giving more fragrance like never before. I am in love with someone, someone who is
absolutely gorgeous, someone who knows what I am and what I can do. I am
feeling like a master again, I started blogging again; I am no more a depressed
soul. All my mood swings vanished, all my shyness just disappeared, I am
absolutely sane now. Some known souls read my blog secretly, some praises my
words, some discard them as junk, some take them home.
I feel like a superstar when someone appreciates while I
never get disheartened if they feel I write crap. I follow no grammar, I follow
no English rule, I just follow my heart, I just write what makes me feel good.
Tonight, there was rain, inside and outside which made me scribble down my
thoughts, my happiness, my love for that special soul. Thank you for

Factory of Love
Urban life is so fast that you don't get time to listen to
your soul; you get so much engrossed in your daily life that you forget about your
existence. But the monotony is broken, when your heart meets a soul, someone
who makes a fairytale out of your mundane life. Love becomes an inspiration and
that inspiration gives you strength to fight against all odds, it gives you a
meaning to survive, to look beyond the unknown.
Suddenly, yes suddenly the wind changes around you. Life is
so full of unpredictability; you never know what is there for you, who come across
your life, who makes room in your heart, who takes your breath away. The story
starts, it stays there, it gives you happiness, you feel the fragrance of your
lover in your absence. You smile from morning to noon, noon to night, night to
morning thinking about the sweet poison, which is now running in your veins. There
are no boundaries, no restrictions, no expectations, still you feel like
sailing in the beautiful tide. The skyscrapers, the malls, the lonely parks,
the metro, the roads start looking good with the advent of the soothing
moonlight in your life.
Factory of love is not made of bricks, it's made of
feelings. Sometimes they are silent ones, sometimes they become violent. In
this factory, there are no workers; there are sick people, mostly bitten by
love bugs. The entry is purely restricted in this factory, only people with
love bites (visible/invisible) are allowed to spend some time and produce some
more love for the factory. People in the factory are constantly found kissing,
fighting, hugging and chatting. Only soft drinks are served in this factory as
lovers never get hungry. They are satiated with the feelings of being loved.
They are mostly lost and create blunders at work, so they are given special
corners in this factory. They have access to pop music, romantic movies, cakes
and chocolates to work out their love creation appropriately.
You will see this factory near you, as soon you start
feeling the elusive love. You will have access to everything, you need no
degrees, no qualification for working here, you just need to have that slight
ache of ecstasy in your heart and a slight smile in your face, which defines
the state of your mind, which makes you the perfect lover in the factory of

The Killing Love, the Unconsciousness, the Cravings of an Urban Hitchhiker
I carry a killing smile, my body stinks like lavender, I crawl
through the streets of unknown, I am the perfect example of invisibility.
Though I live in this planet, my mind always revolves around the unknown world.
I am not from this planet, I feel like an alien with semi-human features, I
gulp down pain like an undiluted scotch, I fly in water balloons.
My world is surreal; I live quietly in my studio apartment. Think
twice before you speak to me, I am ultra sensitive, I am full of obsession,
narcissism is in my blood, I am a traitor, I am a solitary soul just searching
for a meaning from life. I am a traveler, I am, I am, I am….It's only me in my
world. I am disconnected from the world, I am hibernating since last two year,
I am hardly seen anywhere, I am invisible amid the busy crowd.
Love suddenly arrives, suddenly everything looks gorgeous,
but I have to struggle, I have to crawl again, I feel lonely again, I become
just nothing. I am greedy, I want money, I want a fancy car, I want a
penthouse, I want to travel to foreign lands, I am just so engrossed in
fairytales that I lose my dreams very often.
Too much introspection makes you a loser and too much
perspiration makes you hot. You sweat out in the gym so that nobody could see
your tears, you write dark lines because you have no one to hear your not so
great story. Urban life is full of scarcity, you are all alone. You see happy
faces, you see loners, you see fights, you see beauty, you look for yourself in
the mirror. Sometimes you feel so ugly that you feel scared to look into it.
Poison slowly goes down your vein; your Whatsapp statuses just show hatred for
anything everything in this planet.
You crave for someone
who understands your madness, who expects nothing from you, you crave for
success to sing lullaby, while you sleep like a dog in an AC room. You are
slightly nonsensical to expect life to treat you like a prince because nobody
is perfect, you can never be perfect. Perfection is just a myth created by the
human population. You are here to stay for a long time, you will be surely
making a difference, may be you are little different, that's what makes you unique,
imaginative and aloof. You are no loser; your kingdom is waiting for you.
Cluelessness is the new cool, so stay clueless, stay awesome. May be this is the
alternate lifestyle, which we all crave to decipher.

COLUMBIA — Terra Schultz is skilled in the arts of making mud pies, potty training and treating boo-boos.
After having a daughter at 18, two sons at 32 and 34 and now twins at 36, Schultz believes motherhood is one thing that only gets better with age.
From 2006 to 2009, according to the American Community Survey, 64,649 Boone County women between 35 and 50 years old gave birth.
A total of 28,222 women ages 35 to 50 in Columbia gave birth in the years 2006, 2008, and 2009 (2007 wasn't calculated), meaning 31.13 percent of childbearing women in Columbia were between 35 and 50 in those years.
Why are women waiting longer to jump on the baby bandwagon?
Boone Hospital Center obstetrician Matthew Borgmeyer has a few theories.
"With improvements in assisted reproductive technology, like fertility drugs and in vitro fertilization, more women are able to get pregnant than in the past," he said.
Borgmeyer said those advances likely affect women in their 30s the most.
Borgmeyer said a December report from the federal Division of Vital Statistics shows birth rates in 2009 were down most among teenagers and women younger than 25. They were down less among those 30 to 34 and actually up among women older than 40. Births to women older than 50 remain rare, though.
"I have taken care of a handful of 50-plus women in my career," Borgmeyer said in an e-mail. "Usually these women required assisted reproductive technologies such as previously frozen embryos or donor eggs. It is not very common, representing 0.7 births per 1,000."
Jennifer Bachman, 34, said she owes both her pregnancy successes to in vitro fertilization.
"If this technology wasn't around, my kids wouldn't be here," Bachman said. "It's amazing that millions of people today get the chance to be parents because of it."
But there's more to it. Better technology, Borgmeyer said, isn't the only reason more women are waiting. There's a social aspect to it, too.
"Now more than ever, women are waiting to complete their education and advance in their career before starting a family," Borgmeyer said.
With a 21-month-old son, and twins (a boy and a girl) due on the Fourth of July, Bachman said she's happy she waited until the "right time."
"My husband and I didn't want to have kids right away," Bachman said. "I devoted my time to becoming the director of marketing at a golf resort, and he was focused on being deputy fire chief and fire marshal. We were both really career-minded. Plus, we wanted time to travel, enjoy being married before we brought kids into the picture."
Bachman and Schultz belong to Mothers of Multiples, a support group for moms in Columbia. Bachman said several expectant moms in the group also are in their 30s.
Waiting until your 30s, both women said, is the way to go.
"You're more responsible, patient, knowledgeable and financially sound," Schultz said. "Plus, when you're older, you have more resources and a better support system."
Schultz was 18 when she had her first child.
"I remember being so intimidated," Schultz said. "As you grow up, you develop a stronger sense of self."
You're a different person in your 20s, Bachman said. "You find yourself in your 20s, but in your 30s and 40s … that's when you truly appreciate being a mom."
Motherhood at 30, 40 or even 50? Why not? Bachman said.
"In the 70s, it was a given. You went to high school, then maybe college, and finally, you'd get married and have kids," Bachman said. "But no more. Women no longer have to deal with this social pressure to settle down and have kids at a certain age. It's perfectly acceptable … to wait."

That woodpecker looks cold! What a great shot! I never can get the birds to sit still long enough to get a really good closeup.

Hold your grabs effortlessly
I am converted, unless it's really cold I don't even bother with my regular gloves or mitts, the grip and feel you get wearing these is too good! I can operate my camera without taking my gloves off and the grip is good enough that it doesn't feel like I'm going to drop it like when you try to handle that kind of stuff in regular gloves. And once you get ahold of your board for a grab it is there till you let go
Very NIce!
I bought these gloves about a week ago and I love them. I like wearing these more than the super puffy ones. They have plenty of grip and for the price I have no cons.
Grippy Gloves
I wear these gloves on days when it isn't that cold outside. They stop the snow but can be cold at times. The grip is amazing for nose grabs and that's why I love this glove.

Iranian, Venezuelan leaders rebuff US, joke about bomb
Ahmadinejad on tour of Latin America leftists; Seeking support as new Western sanctions kick in
January 10, 2012 10:56 by Reuters
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Venezuela's Hugo Chavez lavished each other with praise on Monday, mocked US disapproval and joked about having an atomic bomb at their disposal.
"Despite those arrogant people who do not wish us to be together, we will unite forever," the Iranian president told socialist leader Chavez at the start of a visit to four left-leaning Latin American nations.
Despite their geographical distance, the fiery anti-US ideologues have forged increasingly close ties between their fellow OPEC nations in recent years, although concrete projects have often lagged behind the rhetoric.
Ahmadinejad was in Venezuela at the start of a tour intended to shore up support as expanded Western economic sanctions kick in over the Islamic Republic's nuclear program.
"The imperialist madness has been unleashed in a way that has not been seen for a long time," Chavez said in a ceremony to welcome Ahmadinejad at his presidential palace in Caracas.
Both men hugged, beamed, held hands and showered each other with praise.
As he often does, the theatrical and provocative Chavez stuck his finger right into the global political sore spot, joking that a bomb was ready under a grassy knoll in front of his Miraflores palace steps.
"That hill will open up and a big atomic bomb will come out," he said, the two men laughing together.
"The imperialist spokesmen say … Ahmadinejad and I are going into the Miraflores basement now to set our sights on Washington and launch cannons and missiles … It's laughable."
US officials from President Barack Obama down have expressed disquiet over Venezuela's close ties with Iran. They fear Chavez will weaken the international diplomatic front against Iran and could give Tehran an economic lifeline.
The United States and its allies believe Iran's nuclear policy is aimed at producing a weapon. Iran says it is only for peaceful power generation.
As well as Venezuela, Ahmadinejad plans to visit Nicaragua, Cuba and Ecuador — a visit that Washington has said shows its "desperation" for friends.
Those nations' governments share Chavez's broad global views, but do not have Venezuela's economic clout and are unable to offer Iran any significant assistance.
Regional economic powerhouse Brazil, which gave the Iranian leader a warm welcome when he visited during the previous government of Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, was notably absent from his agenda this time.
Analysts are watching closely to see if Chavez will back Iran's threat to close the Strait of Hormuz, the world's most important oil shipping lane, or how much he could undermine the sanctions by providing fuel or cash to Tehran.
Ahmadinejad, who is subordinate to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on foreign policy, has said little about the rising tensions with the West, including the sentencing to death of an Iranian-American man for spying for the CIA.
The Venezuelan and Iranian leaders mostly limited their comments on Monday to mutual adulation and anti-US snipes.
"President Chavez is the champion in the war on imperialism," Ahmadinejad said.
"The only bombs we're preparing are bombs against poverty, hunger and misery," added Chavez, saying 14,000 new homes had been built recently in Venezuela by Iranian constructors. (By Andrew Cawthorne and Brian Ellsworth; Editing by Daniel Wallis and Kieran Murray)

Sustainable Fare Catches on at Area 31
December 11, 2013 | by julia ford-carther | Food & Drink News
Located on the 16th floor of the Epic Hotel, Area 31 also offers breathtaking views of Biscayne Bay and Brickell Key.
Executive Chef Wolfgang Birk's recent appointment at Area 31 is a reunion of sorts, as he finds new—and higher—ground in Miami's culinary scene. The award-winning Birk first made a name for himself in Miami at the helm of the five-star Casa Casuarina. At Area 31, he lends his luxury-gourmet lean to the restaurant's sustainable approach to seafood.
Area 31's post-chef-changeup menu doesn't wander far from the restaurant's original concept—it still delivers fresh fare from the UN-designated region Area 31 (the international fishing area encompassing the marine waters of the southeast Atlantic coast, the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea, and South America's northeast coast). But with Birk on board, the importance of sustainability is spilling over to other areas of the menu. "The big difference is that we are working closely with local beef, lamb, chicken, and pork farms in Florida, as well as produce farms and a local baker," the chef explains. "It is all about the ingredients with the culinary experience."
That experience includes a menu of small plates, crudos, and well executed entrées that satisfies various tastes in one sitting, from the standout baby-beet salad over crisp, bitter greens with goat cheese croquettes and pickled golden beets to seared local grass-fed beef carpaccio with a delicately sweet passion fruit glaze.
Area 31 is also mixing things up at the bar with a well-edited wine list and new explorations in shaken spirits from head bartender Dean Feddaoui. Amid the welcome changes, one thing remains the same: Area 31's unparalleled Biscayne Bay view from its patio terrace, a constant worth toasting. Epic Hotel, 16th Fl., 270 Biscayne Blvd. Way, Miami, 305-424-5234
