Little Morocco Cafe
Please see past this terrible horrible no good very bad photo and tell me: Where did this place come from?
It opened six months ago on Eastern Avenue in Highlandtown and serves paninis and hookahs.
Weird, yes. But why not?
Has anyone been there and sampled their wares?
If so, fill me in. Fill all of us in.

Cumulative genetic profiles can help identify individuals at high-risk for developing RA. We examined the impact of 39 validated genetic risk alleles on the risk of RA phenotypes characterized by serologic and erosive status.
We evaluated single nucleotide polymorphisms at 31 validated RA risk loci and 8 Human Leukocyte Antigen alleles among 542 Caucasian RA cases and 551 Caucasian controls from Nurses' Health Study and Nurses' Health Study II. We created a weighted genetic risk score (GRS) and evaluated it as 7 ordinal groups using logistic regression (adjusting for age and smoking) to assess the relationship between GRS group and odds of developing seronegative (RF- and CCP-), seropositive (RF+ or CCP+), erosive, and seropositive, erosive RA phenotypes. In separate case only analyses, we assessed the relationships between GRS and age of symptom onset.In 542 RA cases, 317 (58%) were seropositive, 163 (30%) had erosions and 105 (19%) were seropositive with erosions. Comparing the highest GRS risk group to the median group, we found an OR of 1.2 (95% CI?=?0.8–2.1) for seronegative RA, 3.0 (95% CI?=?1.9–4.7) for seropositive RA, 3.2 (95% CI?=?1.8–5.6) for erosive RA, and 7.6 (95% CI?=?3.6–16.3) for seropositive, erosive RA. No significant relationship was seen between GRS and age of onset.
Results suggest that seronegative and seropositive/erosive RA have different genetic architecture and support the importance of considering RA phenotypes in RA genetic studies.

Six Months to Live
Perhaps having a short time to live makes you reach for everything you hoped to accomplish in a longer lifetime. That could explain why A Better Place is so crammed full of ideas, influences and styles over the course of its fourteen tracks. Gregory Hill and his cohorts channel the Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, Brit pop, Elvis Costello, Neutral Milk Hotel and more. The results aren't always great, but they hit more often than not. Unfortunately, the last third of the disc is fairly weak, dragging the average down a bit. If the whole disc lived up to the strength of its best tracks, such as the bizarre and macabre "Vampires Killed Our Parents" or the insanely catchy "Spin a Top," it would be a minor classic.

Empowering young people to reach their full potential
4-H brings young people, ages 5 to 19, and adults together to learn everyday skills through hands-on learning. Working on activities from animal and plant sciences to robotics, 4-H'ers learn problem-solving skills that can make a positive impact upon our community. Through 4-H, young people learn to:
4-H clubs are open to ages 8 to 18. Clubs meet monthly for group activities and club business. Each club elects officers and has an approved adult leader who supervises club activities. Club members also enroll in projects in their areas of interest.
With projects on more than 75 topics, 4-H has something to interest every child. Here are just a few of the opportunities 4-H offers—geocaching, robotics, international exchanges, horsemanship, pets, starting a business, arts and crafts, raising animals, woodworking, photography and gardening.
Clover Kids introduces 5- to 7-year-olds to the 4-H experience. In Clover Kids, children learn how to get along with others, work in groups, explore their interests, while building self-confidence. Clover Kids do not enroll in projects or raise animals, and do not participate in competitive events, contests or shows.
Joining 4-H is as easy as contacting the extension center. A staff member will explain the enrollment process and membership dues. In addition to dues, some projects may require a small investment to get started, and there may be a fee for materials, trips or other activities.
Young people are welcome to join at any time. The 4-H program year runs from Sept. 1 to Aug. 31. Certain activities may have participation deadlines.

Global airline network Star Alliance is adding Chinese carrier Shenzhen Airlines to its ranks. The carrier, based just across the Pearl River from Hong Kong, joins its majority shareholder Air China to be the second Chinese airline member of the alliance.
Travellers from Australia to China have particular reason to look forward to Shenzhen Airlines' arrival, planned for October 2012.
With a remarkable domestic network from its hub at Shenzhen's Bao'an International Airport, connection options and the opportunity to earn miles and points on Star Alliance members' frequent flyer programs will increase.
With few international flights, travellers are probably unfamiliar with Shenzhen Airlines, which is the fourth largest Chinese carrier.
Serving mostly domestic Chinese routes, with a few flights to Japan, Korea, Taiwan and southeast Asian destinations thrown in, its network is centred on Shenzhen.
But flights also run to and between other hubs: Guangzhou and Nanning in south China, Nanjing and Wuxi in eastern China, and Shenyang in northeastern China. That reinforcement of the alliance's Chinese network outside Beijing, the home of Air China, will reduce connections and transit time for travellers.
And the addition of five new cities -- Juzhou (Quzhou), Linyi, Qinhuangdao, Shijiazhuang and Zhoushan -- to the Star Alliance network will also be useful.
With parent company Air China taking a great leap forward in Australia-China flights by introducing fully flat beds last week, the significance of Shenzhen Airlines joining the Star Alliance may well signify international aspirations at the airline.

NEW YORK CITY—March 28, 2008
"Our patients' willingness to recommend us to others is a reflection of the skill and expertise of our staff," said Louis A. Shapiro, president and chief executive officer of Hospital for Special Surgery. "And our overall patient satisfaction is a testament to the superb care and environment provided by the entire team involved in a patient's treatment and recovery."
Survey results indicated 77 percent of patients admitted to Hospital for Special Surgery ranked their overall satisfaction with the hospital a 9 or 10 quality rating on a 10 point scale. By comparison, a little more than 60 percent of patients nationally on average scored their overall satisfaction at their hospital that favorably.
The survey also found 85 percent of Special Surgery patients were willing to recommend the hospital to others. Nationally, only 67 percent of patients were inclined to recommend their hospital to others.
The Hospital Quality Alliance is a national public-private collaboration of hospital groups, consumer representatives, physician and nursing organizations, employers and payers, oversight organizations and government agencies dedicated to encouraging hospitals to voluntarily collect and make public quality of care information. The HCAHPS survey consists of 27 questions asking patients, after they have left the hospital, how often different aspects of care were provided. The Hospital Quality Alliance hopes that this survey will provide an independent, objective look at patients' experience while they were in the hospital.
Hospital for Special Surgery encourages the sharing of this information as part of a continuous effort to have a clear dialogue about the quality of care it provides. The hospital has long conducted its own internal surveys to assess patient satisfaction and address areas needing more support.
For the other areas of the HCAHPS survey, such as responsiveness of hospital staff and communication with nurses, Hospital for Special Surgery is at or well within range of national averages. The hospital has a number of initiatives in place to enhance patient satisfaction in all of HCAHP's areas. Nearly 80 percent of Special Surgery patients said they were always satisfied with the communication they had with doctors.
"We are, of course, pleased we scored so high," said Shapiro, "but there are always opportunities to do even better. In addition to the patient satisfaction surveys we always conduct, these results provide an important benchmark to assess our patients' experience and we work very hard to exceed the expectations of our patients who chose to come to HSS to receive the best musculoskeletal care in the world."

The Shape Shifter
- Brief Synopsis:
- Retirement has never sat well with former Navajo Tribal Police Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn.
- Long Synopsis:
- Retirement has never sat well with former Navajo Tribal Police Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn. Now the ghosts of a still-unsolved case are returning to haunt him, reawakened by a photograph in a magazine spread of a one-of-a-kind Navajo rug, a priceless work of woven art that was supposedly destroyed in a suspicious fire many years earlier. The rug, commemorating one of the darkest and most terrible chapters in American history, was always said to be cursed, and now the friend who brought it to Leaphorn's attention has mysteriously gone missing. With newly wedded officers Jim Chee and Bernie Manuelito just back from their honeymoon, the legendary ex-lawman is on his own to pick up the threads of a crime he'd once thought impossible to untangle. And they're leading him back into a world of lethal greed, shifting truths, and changing faces, where a cold-blooded killer still resides.

For Arsenal fans, the much-anticipated January transfer window came and went with just one new signing. Nacho Monreal looks set to prove to be a shrewd addition, but the major investment that the squad surely needs to lead the club back to challenging for both the Premier League and Champions League remains unfulfilled.
Both manager Arsene Wenger and chief executive Ivan Gazidis have confirmed that there is significant money to spend and, with a new sponsorship deal recently signed and increasing publicity over the high ticket prices at the Emirates, there will be enormous pressure for major arrivals in the summer.
Here are six potential signings that could make the difference for Arsenal next season.
David Villa (Barcelona)
Wenger has confirmed that Villa was one of the players who got away, as he tried in vain to bring the forward to the club in January. Spain's record goal scorer has been far from a regular at Barcelona since his return from a broken leg, but the La Liga leaders were understandably hesitant to allow him to leave in midseason without a replacement lined up.
It may well be a different story in the summer, however. A deal could well appeal to all parties at the end of the season and Villa would add an extra intelligent and clinical dimension to Arsenal's front line.
Edinson Cavani (Napoli)
Arsenal's record transfer, still thought to be the £15 million paid to Andrei Arshavin, is paltry when compared to those of their rivals. A blockbuster signing of one of the world's elite players would surely give the whole club a huge lift.
Wenger discussed the idea of a move for Cavani in January, but rightly conceded that Napoli would not be prepared to sell in midseason. A deal could happen in the summer, although there is sure to be enormous competition for the prolific Uruguayan's signature. The 25-year-old would cost a huge amount, but could change the whole atmosphere at, and image of Arsenal.
Lucas Biglia (Anderlecht)
The Argentinean midfielder appears a perfect fit for Wenger's Arsenal. An excellent passer and a good reader of the game sitting in front of the back four, there is little surprise that Biglia has frequently been linked to the Gunners.
The 27-year-old is in his seventh year in Belgium and Anderlecht have strongly suggested that the player may be moving on in the summer.
Victor Wanyama (Celtic)
While the signing of Biglia would add another clever passer to Arsenal's midfield, what they may be more in need of is a dynamic presence. When Abou Diaby is fully fit, the midfield takes on another dimension not seen since the days of Patrick Vieira. The problem is that Diaby is so often in the treatment room that he cannot be fully depended upon.
Wanyama has been extremely effective in the Champions League this season in driving Celtic forward, notably in victory over Barcelona. Arsenal have been linked to the 21-year-old and they may be wise to spend the in excess of £10 million it would take to pry him away from the Scottish champions.
Mohamed Diame
The West Ham midfielder would provide similar attributes to Wanyama but would likely be available at a significantly lower fee. Dimae has a £7 million release clause in his contract that was thought to have attracted the interest of many of the Premier League's top clubs in January.
Wenger has spoken in glowing terms about the 25-year-old, although the fact that he did not make an offer last month may well mean that he doesn't think Diame is quite of sufficient quality.
Angelo Ogbonna (Torino)
The signing of left-back Monreal should improve Arsenal's back line, but doubts remain about the fragility of the center of the defense. Italy international Ogbonna is rated extremely highly and, at 24, could be ready for a move away from Torino in the summer. Wenger is also thought to carry and interest in Borussia Dortmund's Mats Hummels, but the German is likely to prove unattainable.
Ogbonna would not come cheap either, with Torino claiming that it would take at least £16 million for them to consider selling.
Stevan Jovetic
The Montenegrin forward is one of the most sought after players in Europe as he continues to provide both goals and creativity for Fiorentina. His versatility would surely appeal to Wenger, with Jovetic capable of playing as a central striker, in-behind, or coming inside from a wide berth.
Despite the arrival of Giuseppe Rossi, Fiorentina are adamant that they are not prepared to sell the 23-year-old, but with the club slipping away from a Champions League berth for next season, Jovetic could begin to get itchy feet.

The government has issued a notification transferring cases related to contract for running the State Data Centre that were under investigation by the State Vigilance and Anti-corruption Bureau to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). The cases relate to award of the contract for technical management of the Data Centre to Reliance Communications Ltd.; allegation about illegal amassment of wealth by lobbyist T.G. Nandakumar, who is said to have acted as a middleman in fixing the contract; and alleged irregularities in the tender procedure adopted for award of the contract.
The notification is issued under Section 6 of the Delhi Special Police (Central Act of 1946) Act.
The award of the contract to Reliance by the LDF government in 2008 had come under criticism over procedural irregularities.
It was alleged that external interests influenced the then Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan in awarding the contract for the Data Centre management to private business interests.

Summary: A Stability Criterion for Stochastic Hybrid Systems Alessandro Abate, Ling Shi, Slobodan N. Simi´c and S. Shankar Sastry Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences University of California at Berkeley Berkeley, CA 94720 {aabate,shiling,simic,email@example.com Tel: (510) 643-4867, Fax: (510) 642-1341 Abstract This paper investigates the notion of stability for Stochastic Hybrid Systems. The uncertainty is introduced in the discrete jumps between the domains, as if we had an underlying Markov Chain. The jumps happen every fixed time T; moreover, a result is given for the case of probabilistic dwelling times inside each domain. Unlike the more classical Hybrid Sys- tems setting, the guards here are time-related, rather than space-related. We shall focus on vector fields describing input-less dynamical systems. Clearly, the uncertainty intrinsic to the model forces to introduce a fairly new definition of stability, which can be related to the classical Lyapunov one though. Proofs and simulations for our results are provided, as well as a motivational example from finance.

There was chaos during the counselling for Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) admissions at the Centralised Admission Cell (CAC) when fresh candidates learnt that officials gave preference for in-service lecturers.
As many as 1,385 pre-university lecturers, who did not have B.Ed degrees, were given study leave to complete their B.Ed course and are being given preference during admissions. Commissioner for Public Instruction Mohammad Mohsin said the officials were abiding by the government's orders.
Following the commotion, officials in the CAC cell said a separate merit list for fresh candidates will be uploaded on the website www.schooleducation.kar. nic.in and the counselling process will be completed by January 30.

Differing pattern of sympathoexcitation in normal-weight and obesity-related hypertension. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 17909120 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Hypertension in normal-weight and obese individuals is characterized by activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Measurement of spillover of the sympathetic transmitter, norepinephrine, to plasma indicates that the regional pattern of sympathetic activation in the 2 "variants" of essential hypertension differs, excluding the heart in obesity-related hypertension. Whether sympathetic nerve firing characteristics also differ is unknown. We studied multiunit and single fiber sympathetic nerve firing properties in patients with normal-weight hypertension and obesity-related hypertension, comparing these with nerve characteristics in normal-weight and obese people with normal blood pressure. Both normal-weight hypertensive (n=10) and obese hypertensive (n=14) patients had increased total multiunit muscle sympathetic nerve activity compared with the normal-weight (n=11) and obese (n=11) people with normal blood pressure (65+/-4 versus 47+/-6 bursts per 100 heartbeats, P<0.01 in the normal-weight groups and 68+/-4 versus 53+/-3 bursts per 100 beats, P<0.01 in the obese groups). Sympathetic activation in normal-weight hypertension was characterized by increased firing rate of single vasoconstrictor fibers (70+/-8 versus 28+/-3 spikes per 100 beats; P<0.001), increased firing probability per heartbeat (39+/-3% versus 20+/-3%; P<0.001), and higher incidence of multiple spikes per heartbeat (30+/-4% versus 17+/-4%; P<0.05). Sympathetic activation in obesity-related hypertension differed, involving recruitment of previously silent fibers, which fired at a normal rate. The pattern of sympathetic activation in normal-weight and obesity-related hypertension differs in terms of both the firing characteristics of individual sympathetic fibers and the sympathetic outflows involved. The underlying central nervous system mechanism and the adverse consequences of the 2 modes of sympathetic activation may differ. |

With a wide range of talents, Emmy Award winner and Grammy Award nominee DAVID CROSS (Minion) has emerged as an inventive and extremely funny performer on stage and screens, both big and small.
Cross can currently be seen on the small screen in two TV programs. First is "The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret," which was created, written, produced by and stars Cross as a witless temp, who inadvertently finds himself heading up a U.K. energy drink company. The six-episode series was filmed in the U.K. and will air there on Channel 4, following its domestic run on IFC.
His second series is the new FOX comedy, "Running Wilde," in which he appears opposite Will Arnett and Keri Russell. Cross plays Andy, an "eco-terrorist" who has been living in the Amazon rainforest with his girlfriend, Emmy (Russell), and serves as a romantic foil to Emmy's first love, Steve (Arnett). The show re-teams Cross with his former "Arrested Development" co-star Will Arnett and creator Mitch Hurwitz.
Cross has been named by Comedy Central as one of the 100 greatest stand-ups of all time and, in 2009, he embarked on his first stand-up comedy tour in six years in support of his first book, entitled "I Drink for a Reason," which was released by Grand Central Publishing. The book spent several weeks on The New York Times "List of Best Sellers," while the tour played to packed venues in nearly 30 cities across the United States.
The hugely successful comedy show was filmed at Boston's Wilbur Theater and premiered on EPIX on April 10, 2010. This marked the comedian's first broadcast stand-up special in 10 years. His previous special, "David Cross: The Pride is Back," aired on HBO in 1999. The new special, entitled "Bigger and Blackerer," was released on CD and DVD by Sub Pop on May 25, 2010.
David has previously released two comedy CD's on the Sub Pop label: "Shut Up You F*&%ing Baby!", which was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album in 2004, and "It's Not Funny." In 2003 he released the DVD "Let America Laugh," a documentary film of the stand-up comedian's tour of small alternative rock clubs.
On the big screen, Cross last starred as Cain, opposite Paul Rudd's Abel, in the Harold Ramis comedy, "Year One." His additional film credits include Christopher Guest's "Waiting for Guffman," the sci-fi comedies "Men in Black" and "Men in Black II" (opposite Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones), the indie cult comedy "Ghost World," Michel Gondry's "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," Todd Phillips' "School for Scoundrels," the independent feature "I'm Not There" and the children's films "Kung Fu Panda" and "Curious George," for which he provided his vocal talents.
On television, Cross is probably best known for his role as Dr. Tobias Fünke on the critically acclaimed Emmy-winning comedy series, "Arrested Development." As part of the ensemble cast, Cross was twice nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series.
His introduction to the TV scene came in the form of "The Ben Stiller Show," where Cross honed his comedy writing chops and shared a 1993 Emmy Award for Outstanding Achievement in Writing in a Variety or Music Program.
Cross would go on to earn three more Emmy nominations as one of the creators and writers (along with Bob Odenkirk) of the groundbreaking HBO comedy series, "Mr. Show with Bob & David." The show ran on the cable network for four years and gained a huge cult following. More recently he wrote, produced and starred in the Comedy Central animated series "Freak Show," which he co-created with H. Jon Benjamin.

Final getaway of 2014
... for Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg, Tennessee. We had hoped to be able to make it in one go, but that was not to be. We had to overnight in the NW area of South Carolina and the following morning made the final road trek to Pigeon Forge.
We were very fortunate that Vera's boss offered us his wood lodge in Pigeon Forge. It was a very cozy 2 bedroom lodge with a fire place and Jacuzzi on the screened in terrace.

Description |
In 1875, Theodore Woolsey Bacon and David Bacon, two grandsons of Rev. David Bacon, came from the east coast and selected a boulder for the monument to their grandfather. They had it engraved with the following statement: Here the First Church in Tallmadge was gathered in the House of Rev. David Bacon, January 22, 1809. The monument was dedicated on June 2, 1881. The site was later annexed by Akron, and the area surrounding the memorial is called David Bacon Park.Courtesy of Tallmadge History Digital Exhibit, Akron-Summit Co. Public Library. | ||

In the thirteenth century, Zen master Dogen—perhaps the most significant of all Japanese philosophers, and the founder of the Japanese Soto Zen sect—wrote a practical manual of Instructions for the Zen Cook . In drawing parallels between preparing meals for the Zen monastery and spiritual training, he reveals far more than simply the rules and manners of the Zen kitchen; he teaches us how to "cook," or refine our lives. In this volume Kosho Uchiyama Roshi undertakes the task of elucidating Dogen's text for the benefit of modern-day readers of Zen. Taken together, his translation and commentary truly constitute a "cookbook for life," one that shows us how to live with an unbiased mind in the midst of our workaday world.

Press Release 05-033 Advanced Research Aircraft to Arrive at Colorado Facility this Week
New NSF plane will go higher and farther on environment studies
HIAPER departing Savannah Airport on a certification flight in March, 2005. Credit and Larger Version
March 9, 2005
A new aircraft with exceptional research capabilities is scheduled to arrive at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Colo., this Friday. Known as HIAPER (High-performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research), the $81.5 million aircraft will serve the environmental research needs of the National Science Foundation, (NSF), NCAR's primary sponsor and owner of the aircraft, for the next several decades
HIAPER, which is scheduled to begin research missions later in 2005, will provide scientists with insights into the atmosphere and Earth's natural systems. A modified Gulfstream V jet, the aircraft can fly at an altitude of 51,000 feet and has a range of 7,000 miles. It can carry 5,600 pounds of sensing equipment, putting it at the forefront of scientific discovery.
"HIAPER's range, duration, and high-altitude capability, combined with a significant scientific payload, make it the most advanced aircraft research platform in the United States," says James Huning, HIAPER program director at NSF.
"The arrival of HIAPER ushers in a new era of environmental research opportunity for NCAR and for the entire geosciences community," says Krista Laursen, HIAPER project director at NCAR. "HIAPER will make it possible for scientists to study meteorological processes and environmental phenomena that are continental or nearly global in scale."
HIAPER will collect data from the tops of storms and lower edge of the stratosphere, altitudes out of reach of most research aircraft. The craft's range will enable scientists to survey remote ocean regions in a single flight to learn more about interactions between the oceans and atmosphere. Future missions include:
The entire environmental sciences community will have access to the aircraft, says Huning. Researchers will begin taking HIAPER on local science missions based out of Jefferson County Airport in Colo. in the fall. These early missions will allow pilots and technicians to familiarize themselves with the plane. The flights will also give scientists an opportunity to test and showcase the plane's capabilities and perform some initial research.
"The best part of HIAPER is the 'H,' which stands for high-performance," says Jennifer Francis, an atmospheric scientist at Rutgers University in New Jersey. "A research platform like HIAPER makes this an exciting time to be an atmospheric scientist."
In addition to NCAR, Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation, Lockheed Martin, and the Garrett Aviation Consulting Group have been involved in the development of HIAPER.

Hysteresis and the single-phase metal-insulator transition in switchable YHx films
Kooij, E.S. and Gogh, A.T.M. van and Nagengast, D.G. and Koeman, N.J. and Griessen, R. (2000) Hysteresis and the single-phase metal-insulator transition in switchable YHx films. Physical Review B: Condensed matter and materials physics, 62 (15). pp. 10088-10100. ISSN 1098-0121
Restricted to UT campus only : Request a copy 645kB |
Abstract: | Extraordinary large hysteresis effects in optical, electrical, and structural properties are observed in switchable mirrors based on thin yttrium hydride (YHx) films, deposited on quartz glass or sapphire. The pressure-composition isotherms of the YHx system between x=2 and 3 for absorption and desorption, determined electrochemically, differ by approximately three orders of magnitude. The optical transmittance exhibits a distinct minimum when loading the films from the dihydride to the trihydride state; however, upon unloading this minimum is absent. The desorption data are in good agreement with literature data on bulk yttrium, but the absorption results show large deviations. Most important for the metal-insulator transition is that during hydrogen loading YHx remains in a single hcp phase for x>2.1. The hysteresis is discussed in terms of strains (and consequently stress) at the interface between fcc dihydride and hcp trihydride.

Albright-Knox and First Niagara Introduce New AK Teens Program
January 29, 2013
The Albright-Knox announced the launch of its newest program for young Western New Yorkers today. The new AK Teens program, presented by First Niagara, is a dynamic mentoring program that will serve teens from across Western New York and Southern Ontario. Designed to mentor young adults seeking to pursue careers in creativity and the arts, AK Teens will provide a platform for young artists to exhibit their work, and to prepare portfolios, which are vital for admission to college arts programs. The program offers workshops and mentoring on subjects ranging from making art to working in the arts, and even public speaking. First Niagara is supporting this initiative by providing financial backing as well as company volunteers who will teach sessions on budgeting and finance.
AK Teens builds on the success of the museum's Future Curators program, in which high school students in grades eleven and twelve work alongside Gallery staff members to plan, organize, and install an art exhibition. The expanded AK Teens program will feature a number of new initiatives, including portfolio review sessions; a museum and studio workshop series; and "Speak Out," a public speaking course taught around works in the Gallery's Collection.
AK Teens is presented by First Niagara.

I know I'm going to get HATE for this comment
Humans are so freaking arrogant at their own existence.
The same people who are so ProLife/AntiAbortion do not distinguish between human life and life in general.
This alone is absurd.
If a 'possibly' venomous spider approaches your child, you'll kill it without remorse or thought. Same for any number of species. Stomp, crunch, dead.
To hold the life of a human so far above any other life in existence is admirable, if you're human. Not so much for the other 'life'
Since when did the Golden Rule apply only to humans?
I'm not saying an unborn child is a threat to anyone. No fangs, venom or otherwise.
That's not my point.
If you're ProLife, you must be Pro ALL LIFE or you're a hypocrite.
Just like a Sgt has never met an Atheist in a Foxhole, I've never met a ProLifer in the middle of a Venomous Snakepit
One day, I'm gonna' change my name to Dale Lee Paul

This chapter contains procedures for reporting income and tax adjustments to the Social Security Administration (SSA).
The following procedures are for cases in which the increase to self-employment income (SEI) brings the total SEI to over $399.99 or any decrease to SEI if the original SEI was greater than $399.99.
The decrease must not bring the total SEI below zero.
Adjustments to self-employment tax are forwarded to SSA electronically by Centralized Case Processing (CCP) during the case closure process.
The following information must be provided by the examiner to CCP by taking one or more of the actions below:
Include the computer generated page of the Revenue Agent Report (RAR) attached to the Form 5344Examination Closing Record containing the reference number information; or
Enter the correct figures in Item 15 on Form 5344.
Changes to self-employment income/tax are input using the following reference codes in Item 15 of Form 5344 for examination adjustments:
The net increase or decrease to the (SEI) of the primary taxpayer —Reference Number 878. The Reference Number 878 amount is the SEI adjustment multiplied by .9235. The amount entered with Reference Number 878 must not bring the taxpayer's total SEI over the maximum amount subject to self-employment tax. Reference Number 889 is required with Reference Number 878.
The net increase or decrease to the SEI of the secondary taxpayer—Reference Number 879. The Reference Number 879 amount is the SEI adjustment multiplied by .9235. The amount entered with Reference Number 879 must not bring the taxpayer's total SEI over the maximum amount subject to self-employment tax. Reference Number 889 is required with Reference Number 879.
The net increase or decrease for the primary taxpayer that is subject to Medicare tax — Reference Number 895.
The net increase or decrease for the secondary taxpayer that is subject to Medicare tax — Reference Number 896.
The net increase or decrease to the total self-employment tax is the Reference Number 889 amount. This amount must reflect the total self-employment tax adjustment for both taxpayers if applicable.
If Reference Number 878 or 879 is entered but there is no adjustment to be made to the self-employment tax due because the adjustments made to income did not change the tax, Reference Number 889 must be entered with a "zero" amount. AIMS and Master File programming will accept the input of Reference Number 889 with a "zero" amount.
On no change cases where there has been a change to the self-employment income/tax, Reference Numbers 878 or 879 and 889 must still be input. Item 12 must contain a transaction code TC 300 for zero, Item 13 must be Disposal Code 01, and Item 15 must contain the appropriate reference numbers.
Tip income can result in changes to both income and FICA/Medicare taxes. The procedures for reporting the FICA/Medicare changes are listed below.
If an examination results in an adjustment to tip income or a delinquent return is secured after a substitute for return (SFR) TC 150 has posted, the following information will be supplied by the examiners to CCP by taking one or more of the actions below:
Ensure the correct figures are entered in item 15 of Form 5344. Refer to IRM 126.96.36.199.2
Complete Form 885-T, Adjustment of Social Security Tax on Tip Income Not Reported to Employer.
Changes to tip income are input by reference codes in Item 15 of Form 5344 for Examination adjustments:
Reference Number Description 891 Adjustment to Primary Unreported Tip Income 892 Adjustment to Secondary Unreported Tip Income 898 Amount of Unreported tip income adjustment for the primary taxpayer that is subject to Medicare tax 899 Amount of unreported tip income adjustment for the secondary taxpayer that is subject to Medicare tax
Only one taxpayer's name may appear on Form 885-T. It must be legible and match the name on Form 5344 for the taxpayer whose SSA account is being adjusted. If both names appear and it can be determined from the examiner's workpapers which name is correct, line out the incorrect name. If such a determination cannot be made, return the case to the originator.
The taxpayer's address must match the Master File address and also be legible.
The social security number (SSN) on the form must match that shown on the Form 5344 including any corrections, with one exception; if a joint return was filed under the husband's SSN and the wife's SSA account is being adjusted, the wife's SSN must appear on the form even though it is not shown on Form 5344.
When an examination results in an adjustment to employee share of FICA where the employer is not liable due to Section 530 of the Revenue Act of 1978, 95 PL 600, Form 885-E, Schedule for FICA Tax Adjustment of Wages not Previously Reported, must be prepared. IRM 220.127.116.11.9, Adjustment for Employee FICA Tax, contains procedures for completion of the form.
The tax adjustment in Item 12, of Form 5344 will include any adjustment in FICA or railroad retirement tax which is due to an adjustment in tip income. The penalty (50% unreported tax) will be shown separately in Item 12, and will be coded with TC 310 or 311.
If the adjustment involves railroad retirement tax, the case file will include a memorandum to the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) stating the employee's name and SSN, the name of the railroad employer and the increase or decrease in the amount subject to railroad retirement tax. CCP will remove the memorandum from the case file and forward it to:
Director of Budget and Fiscal Operations
Railroad Retirement Board
844 Rush Street
Chicago, IL. 60611 -
If the taxpayer reports salary income on Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, but fails to report the tip income, the requirement for filing a return for this category of tax has not been met. To determine the statute of limitations to assess the social security tax on tip income, refer to Rev. Rul. 79-39, 1979-1 C.B. 435. According to Rev. Rul. 79-39, the period of limitation for assessment of the social security taxes on the tip income is still open after the expiration of the three year statute for the Form 1040.

Apache Click is a simple JEE web application framework for commercial Java developers.
Apache Click is an open source project, licensed under the Apache license .
Click uses an event based programming model for processing Servlet requests and Velocity for rendering the response. (Note other template engines such as JSP and Freemarker are also supported)
This framework uses a single servlet, called ClickServlet, to act as a request dispatcher. When a request arrives ClickServlet creates a Page object to process the request and then uses the page's Velocity template to render the results.
Pages provide a simple thread safe programming environment, with a new page instance created for each servlet request.
Possibly the best way to see how Click works is to dive right in and look at some examples. (The examples are also available online at http://click.avoka.com/click-examples/ under the menu "Intro Examples".)
A Hello World example in Click would look something like this.
First we create a HelloWorld
page class:
package examples.page; import java.util.Date; import org.apache.click.Page; public HelloWorld extends Page { private Date time = new Date(); public HelloWorld() { addModel("time", time); } }
Next we have a page template hello-world.htm
where we can access the Page's time
variable using the
reference $time

Hello World

Hello world from Click at $time
Click is smart enough to figure out that the HelloWorld
page class maps to the template hello-world.htm
. We only
have to inform Click of the package of the HelloWorld
class, in this case examples.page. We do that through the
click.xml configuration
file which allows Click to map hello-world.htm
to the examples.page.HelloWorld
page class.
<click-app> <pages package="examples.page"/> </click-app>
At runtime the following sequence of events occur. The ClickSerlvet
maps a GET hello-world.htm
request to our page class
and creates a new instance.
The HelloWorld page creates a new private Date object,
which is added to the page's model under the name time
The page model is then merged with the template which substitutes
the $time
reference with the Date
object. Velocity then renders the merged template as:

Quantas Grounds its A380s
Airbus touts the A380 as the plane of the future. In this News Corp. video you can see the first Qantas airbus A380 touch down in Sydney, October 2008:
Quantas is quite proud of its safety record. What other major airline can brag of never having lost a jetplane? Keen on keeping that reputation, Quantas grounded its A380s after the emergency landing of its "scrabus" flight QF32.
According to News.Com.Au "Qantas made it clear it will keep its six superjumbos grounded indefinitely and has rearranged flight schedules using substitute aircraft.
Thus the planes of the future is having problems in the present.
News on Airbus's big one, the A380, first. Singapore Airlines found oil leaking from its Rolls Royce engines (courtesy of News Australia):
And yet more on SKYNews:
The Fallout for RollsRoyce:
In the Financial Times, Pilita Clark, its Aerospace Correspondent, reports "Rolls-Royce is preparing to cannibalise several half-built A380 superjumbos on production lines to obtain more than a dozen new engines to help its stricken airline customers such as Qantas.

Monthly Archives: October 2008
Bishop Joseph Martino: "No Social Issue Has Caused The Death Of 50 million People"
Last week InsideCatholic.com editor Deal Hudson complained about the use of the Bishops' document "Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship" to justify a vote for Senator Barack Obama — who as Robert P. George persuasively argued, is "not merely a pro-choice politician, but rather as the most extreme pro-abortion candidate to have ever run on a major party ticket".
The Lion of Pennsylvania
Much has been said of Archbishop Chaput's statement on pro-choice politics and their standard bearers. Rocco Palmo of Whispers in the Loggia now reports that Bishop Joseph Martino of the Diocese of Scranton, Pennsylvania, made another bold statement for the most defenseless among us.
Calling a Spade an Earth-Destroying Instrument of Destruction
This started out as a reply to Chris's "We're All Socialists Now" post, and just kept going, so I decided to make a whole post out of it instead of clogging the comments.
There is a huge intellectual dishonesty in all of politics, in which it is never so important to simply call a spade a spade, but to distort it for political benefit. A spade to one party is the earth-tearing, vegetation-mutilating instrument of doom, while to the other party it is the vehicle of agricultural and personal independence.
Prayers Over Politics
Senator Obama is leaving the campaign trail on Thursday until Saturday to visit in Hawaii his gravely ill maternal grandmother Madelyn Dunham. I trust that all Catholics, especially Catholics who, as I do, support Senator McCain, will pray for Madelyn Dunham and Senator Obama. Catholics understand the neverending need for God, especially at moments of grave illness, and that all of us are totally dependent on God's mercy, grace and love. This is a useful reminder that people we oppose politically are still, like us, poor sinners who need our prayers, as we need theirs.
We're All Socialists Now
One of the things that quickly tires me is overblown political rhetoric; although it's easy to give in to the temptation (I sure have a time or ninety), it simply serves no good purpose in advancing a civil and constructive political discourse. I'm all for making arguments for and against candidates (see the post below), but demonization is practically the standard, not the exception these days.
The Dilemma of the PLCOS
It occurred to me recently that the typical Pro-Life Catholic Obama Supporter finds himself in a bit of a pickle… on the one hand, he obviously hopes (and prays?) that Senator Obama wins the presidential election; on the other hand, in order for his repeated assurances that there's just no way that Obama's abortion extremism will ever come to pass, he must similarly hope (and pray?) that the Illinois Senator's party does not do as well as it appears it will, because if the Democrats do succeed in making substantial gains in the House and especially the Senate, then that abortion extremism has a very good chance of in fact becoming law.
So… go Obama, go GOP???
The Moral Content of Politics
[I]s Catholic politico-talk, particularly in the present moment, as most of us are engaging in it, taking place essentially on the level of vague assertions, associations and concepts? And – are we avoiding and ignoring the way that government and political processes actually work?
She singles out two particular areas in which Catholic bloggers have often imbued politics with too much weight, and thus divorced it from what it is.
Biden and Def Con 1
Joe Biden, Democrat candidate for Veep and human gaffe machine, dropped his unintentional comic relief personae and became very serious in a meeting of Democrat fund-raisers on October 19, in Seattle, Washington. He predicted that within six months of the election of Obama an international crisis would be generated to test the mettle of the young and untried President.
Reflections on Death
My wife's grandfather, Dave, died Saturday night after a long fight with a rare form of Lou Gehrig's disease. As opposed to the more common forms that start in the appendages and work their up, this started immediately at the head and worked its way down. In his last days, he could not feed himself, speak, bathe himself, or even write to communicate with others what he needed. It was a difficult time for everyone; for my wife's grandmother, who has divorced once and buried a second husband already; and for the rest of the family, who have felt as though they were just marking time, especially as week by week the reports of his health bore increasingly bleak news.
The War on Joe the Plumber
Since Joe Wurzelbacher asked a question of Senator Obama on October 11, 2008 which proved to be potentially damaging to the Obama campaign, the following has happened to Mr. Wurzelbacher:
Those 'Fishy' Polls
If you've been watching only the network newscasts and CNN and MSNBC as well as reading only the New York Times, Washington Post, and the Boston Globe you would think that the U.S. presidency was all but a done deal for Senator Barack Obama to win the White House. Poll after poll shows Senator Obama with 10, 11, and 12 point leads over Senator John McCain. With traditional red states like Virginian and North Carolina showing Senator Obama with leads of up to eight (8) points McCain supporters should be worried.
Powell for Obama
I just read over at Vivificat that former Secretary of State Gen. Colin Powell has endorsed Barack Obama for President. To tell the truth, although Powell is a Republican, I am not surprised. I am shocked and saddened though that another African American political figure has decided o support the most pro-abortion candidate in the history of the US. Does Gen. Powell not know of the genocide of his people, not in Darfur but here in the abortion mills of America? As I stated months ago on my personal blog, as much as I would love to see a black President I can never support an African American candidate like Obama. Despite his smooth words, his downright hostility to the pro-Life cause is sickening and keeps me from ever supporting him, even if I agreed with his other economic and social policies. It saddens me to see that so few of the black electorate and elected officials care at all that the future of their community destroyed.
The Pro-Life Movement On The Left
Obama's Pie Problem
Compare and Contrast
Something for the weekend. Two versions of Franz Waxman's immortal Ride to Dubno, aka Ride of the Cossacks: dueling pianists and the full Hollywood treatment in the 1962 movie Taras Bulba for which the song was composed. Great to listen to if you need an energy boost.
Obama, 'Joe the Plumber' and Catholic Social Teaching
Earlier this week, Donald McClarey introduced us to "Joe the Plumber", referenced by McCain in the third presidential debate.
The website Family Security Matters carries a exclusive online interview with Joe Wurzelbacher. Some excerpts:
See, I believe in working for what I get. I don't want to say it's a handout, but essentially that's what it comes down to. You're going to tax someone else more that's been working hard to fulfill the American Dream and you're gonna give it to other people who – I'm not saying they don't work as hard, but I'm sure some of them don't – and I don't think it's right just to give it to them or reduce taxes on their part and hike it up on my part like a teeter totter to bring it back even. So no, that wouldn't – well, let me rephrase that. It would appeal to me because back then I was struggling. That kind of thing appeals to me – anybody wants to cut my taxes, I look at it very seriously, it's like, it sounds great. But you gotta see what the other hand is doing too. […]
Archbishop Chaput Weighs In Again
Tonight Denver's Archbishop Charles Chaput gave an address at a dinner for the national Catholic women's group ENDOW (Educating on the Nature and Dignity of Women), in which he critiqued the arguments of Prof. Doug Kmiec in favor of voting for Senator Obama, despite his stance on abortion. A condensed and adapted version of the address can be found online here at the Witherspoon Institute's website (the same place one can find the essay by Prof. Robert George on Obama's abortion extremism which other contributors have previously mentioned).
