A Tour Around Ace Frehley's Bronx
By Katherine Turman
In all the books about the influence of science fiction on dance music . . . well, I'm not sure if there are any such books, but if there were one, it would say that one of the most momentous events in the history of dance music . . . well, not "momentous," because it wasn't a moment and maybe wasn't all that important. Anyway, a nonmomentary event of some significance, maybe, which occurred over a matter of years and decades (sort of long for an "event," but no matter) was the decisionthe practiceof movie and video-game makers to work on the principle that space guns and laser rays would sound real cool if they went "zip" and "whoosh" (even if actually, in outer space, no one can hear you shoot) and that space invaders should come down on you with a Doppler "whoooo," and that computers and robots and alienswhen not going blip-blipshould talk in staticky metallic voices. These science-fiction devices had their first dance-music payoff in the late '70s when, for instance, whoever put together Anita Ward's "Ring My Bell" decided that funny little space-invader "whoooos" would sound real cool as orgasms and vice versa. And in Germany Kraftwerk did "Trans-Europe Express," which I know is supposed to be a train not a spaceship, but it sounds all spacy with ethereal melodies and robot voices (and in 1977 I kept confusing it with two other songs on the radio: the Star Wars theme and Donna Summer's electro-spacy "I Feel Love," the latter of which sounded as if Donna and her supposed feelings of love were calling to us across a light-year void that she had no interest in crossing).
"Trans-Europe Express" must have sounded sufficiently interplanetary in the South Bronx, where DJ Afrika Bambaataa was helping to invent hip-hop. Several years later he put all these space-robot-computer effects (except for the orgasms) together on the Soul Sonic Force records "Planet Rock" and "Looking for the Perfect Beat," where he and his associates Arthur Baker and John Robie worked out that blips could be funky and that beats could get a ray-gun twistand that bass beats (and therefore car radios) could go BOOM and that big slow beats could be surrounded by little fast beats. And inside this whirlaround, on "Planet Rock," he put the ethereal melody from "Trans-Europe Express."
"Planet Rock" provoked a cross-genre burst of songs and novelties (e.g., "Jam on It" by Newcleus and "Attack of the Name Game" by Stacy Lattislaw), where the young and the alienated who made music decided they might as well sound like aliens too.
But wait, the culture had already imagined this music before it happened. Electronic dance existed before there was electronic dance music, before there was hip-hop or Kraftwerk. Black teenagers in early-'60s California were doing robot dances inspired by mime and the Jetsons TV show, and jerking dances derived from religious ecstasy; over time these dances rolled into Afro-Caribbean-American-Californian forms like the boogaloo, the popcorn, poppin', lockin', the electric boogaloo, moonwalking. It's as if black culture had just been waiting for Kraftwerk and Star Wars and video games, so that you could have a sound to match the movement. And why this interest in robot-sci-fi motions? I don't have a clue, actually, so let me guess that what may be most crucial in such dancingthis probably varies from dancer to dancerisn't just the idea of electronics and robots but that these ideas give dancers the excuse to engage in interplay between control and ecstasy, smooth-rolling muscle ripples and spastic jerks, rigidity and sudden collapse. AndI'm thinking of James Brown and of how his music and dancing are about both letting loose and being absolutely precisethe appeal of robots and Kraftwerk and computer music may have been that they seemed to bolster the precise side of the dynamic as well as shooting you into the future and the big wide universe. (And it's not irrelevant that the first electronic pop hit was Hot Butter's "Popcorn" [1972], which played its futuristic blips like popcorn pops. As James Brown had presciently said a few years earlier, "It's a new day so let a man come in and do the popcorn.")

Testing Honda's "mind-controlled" UNI-CUB β
December 7, 2013
"It has a top speed of 6 km/h, it balances itself, and you couldn't crash it if you tried. How can you possibly see that as one of the biggest thrills of your life?" That was the response from an automotive journalist colleague at the Tokyo Motor Show after I eulogized riding Honda's UNI-CUB β personal mobility device. After a lifetime of journalism covering every form of technology, cars, motorcycles and "boys toys," from driving and riding exotica worth a decade's wages, this was one the greatest thrills I had experienced – being one of the first to ride a landmark personal transportation device as important as Henry Ford's Model T.

Honda to show smaller, lighter UNI-CUB Personal Mobility Device
November 14, 2013
Honda has announced that yet another version of the UNI-CUB personal mobility device will be shown at next week's Tokyo Motor Show. The UNI-CUB β is smaller, lighter, lower and can be used as a seat, making it a potential alternative to the office chair. Read More
With big changes likely in the global transport infrastructure, the race is on to create the missing link – the smallest, lightest man-packable form of motorized transport yet known. Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen, BMW and Nissan have all shown vehicles in this area, but none have yet hit the market. The best-of-breed is currently the Yikebike and it announced today that it has further extended its lead, lightening its US$4,000 Carbon model from 11.5 kg to 11.2 kg and extending its range to 15 km (9.3 miles). There's also now a choice of Yikebikes with two cheaper versions at 12.7 kg ($3,000) and 14 kg ($2000). Read More
Honda has released details of a new personal mobility device dubbed the UNI-CUB. An evolution of the U3-X unicycle EV that has been shown globally since the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show, the UNI-CUB employs the same impressive balance control technology and omni-directional wheel as its predecessor, with the biggest differences appearing to be the addition of an extra wheel, a comfier perch and optional user control via a mobile phone or tablet.

Dual-mode transport - the trend accelerates
April 30, 2012
Auto China is probably the most influential automobile show in the world at present. China now produces and consumes more cars than any other nation, so its needs will heavily influence personal transport globally in coming decades. Some early trends are emerging as to what we'll see, and as congestion in China increases and parking centrally becomes prohibitively expensive, a car will increasingly only get you part of the way to your destination. Geely and BMW both showed cars with inclusive last-mile transport at Auto China, but the number of last mile Transportation Appliance options under development by auto manufacturers is growing rapidly.

Honda Microcommuter Concept outsmarts the smart
November 10, 2011
Mercedes Benz iconic smart fortwo was several decades ahead of its time when it was first conceived by Swatch in the late eighties. Now Honda's Micro Commuter Concept looks like it will take the basic design and update it to the world of today, with social networking, heads-up display, advanced aerodynamics, seating for three (1+2) similar to Gordon Murray's T25 and T27 city cars, luggage capacity, a customizable exterior and last mile transport in the form of an ingenious fold-up electric two-wheeler known as the Motor Compo.

Geely McCar is a combined car and motorcycle
April 21, 2011
One of the most imaginative concept cars we've ever seen turned up at Auto Shanghai this week and it didn't come from Japan, Germany, France or America – it was the result of two years work in China by Geely engineers and is the synthesis of over 60 IP-protected ideas. In essence, it's an ultra compact, two-door, four-seater with a built-in, folding three wheeled electric scooter in the rear. When the scooter is docked, the car shares both its battery and electric motor to extend the all-electric range or ensure the scooter is fully charged. The vehicle is proposed as having choice of gas-electric hybrid or fully electric powerplants. Sheer genius … and a catchy name which must surely attract a legal challenge. Read More
The Intermot motorcycle and bicycle fair rolled around in Cologne earlier this month with a lot of focus clearly beginning to shine on the area of electric bikes, scooters, bicycles and even smaller devices. Gizmag looks at the 10 kg Yikebike, the world's fastest electric scooter, Kawasaki's 210 bhp ZX10R, BMW's six cylinder masterpiece, Horex's V6 and one of the most astounding engines we've yet seen - the Ducati 868cc V8 of German engineer Dieter Hartmann-Wirthwein. The layout of his engine (pictured) enables a compact four cylinder engine to be built on a single cylinder crankcase. Read More
The concept of "last few mile mobility" is one which we'll all grow accustomed to over the next decade as the world's cities become more congested and non-polluting micro mobility concepts begin to supplement other forms of transport. In the last year alone we've seen Toyota's Winglet, Honda's U3-X, Nissan's electric skis, and now Volkswagen has shown a micro mobility concept which it has dubbed the "Bik.e" – a folding electric bike with one of the most ingenious folding mechanisms we've seen. With a range of 20 kilometres (12.5 miles), the Bik.e has 20 inch wheels and folds to a footprint identical to that of a car spare tyre, enabling it to be stowed away easily. Whatsmore, the bik.e will definitely see production, and possibly even before the end of the year. VW's choice of form factor is as fascinating as its choice of a recognisable name is inspired. The Bik.e could turn out to be as important to VW as the iPod has been to Apple. Read More

Experts Gain Valuable Fitness Business Tips At "7 Figure" Sam's San Diego Mastermind
Fitness Business legend, "7 Figure" Sam Bakhtiar — CEO of the Fit Concepts boot camps in Chino Hills, California —left fellow entrepreneurs with valuable lessons at his latest mastermind seminar in San Diego. More information can be found at http://www.Super-Trainer.com.
Chino Hills, CA (PRWEB) October 01, 2012
Fitness business legend, "7-Figure" Sam Bakhtiar, is well-known for his Las Vegas mastermind retreats. However, his latest mastermind took place in San Diego and fitness business owner Callie Durbrow says she has learned many helpful pointers on elevating her group training business and separating herself from the other boot camps in her area.
"Sam taught me that you can charge more money for small group training because it´s still less expensive than the one-on-one training people are used to. So my hourly rate can be somewhere in the $200-$300 range," she says. "He also taught me that it´s all about providing more value than the average local gym. By creating a ℠tribe´ and making my clients feel special and supported, I can generate more referrals." Callie added that she left the mastermind with countless ideas for improving her business value. She plans to throw appreciation parties, create fun contests with prizes to drive bigger and better results, send out cards to make each individual feel valued, and get more involved on Facebook.
At Sam´s San Diego mastermind, he also recommended keeping groups small — between 8 and 12. That way, clients are encouraged to form a bond with their fellow trainees and begin to feel like they don´t want to miss out on what everyone else is doing. Also, it´s easier to know each client by name and scale the workouts to a person´s individual fitness level.
Clients should be given an amazing experience both in and out of the gym. They should feel energized and more confident after a good workout. In addition to the regular sessions, training studio owners should throw appreciation parties, organize 5-K run teams, feature contests, and give shout-outs to people who are meeting their goals. Giving out water bottles, studio-specific "Livestrong" style bracelets, gym bags, and other promotional items makes members feel valued as well.
Giving away complementary services like supplements, nutrition coaching, and learning seminars will boost the value of a training studio too. "Remember, if you´re not giving away the full package, there is another local fitness business that is," Sam tells his group. "The landscape has become more competitive over the years, so you need to do a little bit more to keep pace."
Lastly, tracking progress and results is critical. Assessing inches, body fat and weight every six weeks — and taking progress photos — is a great way to create testimonial narratives and make members feel more motivated to continue their success.

Graphical glitches since todays patch
When I restarted after todays patch was installed I found that my HUD text and ingame dialogue portraits and ship pics don't render properly at all.
I can't even take a screenshot it just turns into a black page, so I am describing it as best I can... My text hub looks EXACTLY like barcodes, and my portraits which include most static pictures like ship pics in requisitions and dialogue portraits render with intermitant black lines, making it look like you are viewing them with a set of black venetian blinds in front of them (band of picture, band of black, band of picture.. etc.)
it was fine before the installation, is anyone else getting issues like these?
Thank you.
EDIT....The glich is also affecting other effects, like forcefields and the transporter effect.
Found the problem.. somehow the patch has affected AA... I was playing with edge-detect 24AA, which was fine, but after the patch it doesn't work properly so I've put it back to 8 and it's fine again.... but not quite as crisp :/
Ah weell, at least the artifacts have gone.

Paquette, Cedric
AHL Game Night: 11-30-13 Crunch at PhantomsSubmitted by pete on November 30, 2013 - 23:06
Dump Truck delivers (again).
Cedrick Desjardins stopped all 28 shots he faced for the shutout victory. Goaltending will be extra important if Syracuse is going to ride out this stretch at less than full strength, and Desjardins gave them that goaltending tonight.
First Period
Second Period
Third Period
SYR Paquette, (6) (Gauthier, Connolly), 12:00 (PP)
Desjardins and Cedric Paquette were the game's first and second stars. Paquette (Dump Truck!) had the game winning goal for the second straight game. Coming out of quite the scoring slumber, Brett Connolly also had an assist for the second straight game. That's a welcome sign from last year's 2nd Team AHL All-Star.
Box score from TheAHL.com.
AHL Game Night: 11-29-13 IceCaps at CrunchSubmitted by pete on November 30, 2013 - 00:17
Dump Truck delivers.
Cedrick Desjardins allowed 2 goals on 28 shots for the victory.
First Period
SYR Kaunisto, (1) (Langelier-Parent, Neilson), 18:10
Second Period
SYR Walker, (2) (Paquette, Korobov), 12:10 (PP)
STJ Jaffray, (7) (Gordon, Redmond), 13:52 (PP)
STJ Lipon, (4) (Lowry), 14:15
Third Period
SYR Paquette, (5) (Devos, Gauthier), 15:36
SYR Gauthier, (3) (Connolly), 19:05 (EN)
Cedric Paquette (Dump Truck!) and Ray Kaunisto were the game's first and third stars.
I don't know what it is about the IceCaps, but the Lightning organization could stick cardboard cutouts in jerseys and still beat them. SyraNo has just had their number - big time - and tonight was a win Syracuse really needed to right the ship even though, when you look up and down the roster, it's very hard to find familiar names.
Syracuse faces Adirondack tomorrow as they attempt to put a little unlikely streak together here.
Box score from TheAHL.com.
AHL Game Night: 10-25-13 Crunch at CometsSubmitted by pete on October 25, 2013 - 21:22
Two points the hard way.
Cedrick Desjardins stopped 19 of 20 in regulation and OT and 5 of 6 in the shootout for the win. He'll backstop most, if not all, of Syracuse's games over the next couple of weeks as Helenius recovers from the dreaded upper body ailment.
First Period
UTI Stuart, (2) (Sauve, Dalpe), 4:39 (PP)
Second Period
SYR Kucherov, (6) (Taormina, Namestnikov), 6:43 (PP)
Third Period
SYR- Richard, Paquette
UTI- Ferriero
Cedric Paquette (Dump Truck!) and Desjardins were the game's first and second stars. Paquette scored the winning shootout goal to deliver the payload! They seriously need to play a truck horn when he scores. Nikita Kucherov continues to stake his claim as the most dangerous power play weapon in the AHL, aided and abetted by partner-in-crime Vladislav Namestnikov.
Syracuse outshot Utica 34-20, and really spent the whole game hurling chances against the wall that was Joacim Eriksson. Forunately, even despite that frustration, they at least made sure to get the two points in the shootout session.
Side note, wow, Utica. The AHL stuck you with the abbreviation UTI? At best that recalls Universal Technical Institute, which is the guys that break into your Judge Mathis in the afternoons (when you're too ill to go to work) to try to entice you to learn how to fix big rigs (not to be confused with the Cordon Bleu cooking college). At worst, that gets medical, as in Urinary Tract Infection. Now, I'm not one to tell you what to do as a franchise, but I might request the AHL to switch your abbreviation to UTC instead (University of Tennessee at Chattanooga having a less negative connotation). Annnnnd a rivalry is born. You're welcome.
Syracuse draws Bridgeport tomorrow night.
Box score from TheAHL.com.
AHL Game Day: 10-13-13 Penguins at CrunchSubmitted by pete on October 13, 2013 - 19:19
Much like the big club, the Crunch have a Third Period collapse against the Pens.
Riku Helenius allowed 5 goals on 26 shots for the loss.
First Period
WBS Kostopoulos, (1) (Drazenovic, Harrington), 17:28 (PP)
Second Period
SYR Namestnikov, (1) (Taormina, Nesterov), 10:49 (PP)
SYR Paquette, (1) (Rankin), 14:39 (SH)
Third Period
WBS Kostopoulos, (2) (Mikkelson, Drazenovic), 0:55 (PP)
WBS Drazenovic, (1) (Conner, Mikkelson), 4:04 (PP)
WBS Megna, (1) (Ebbett), 8:48 (SH)
SYR Taormina, (1) (Walker, Richard), 10:26
WBS Zolnierczyk, (3) (Sill, Despres), 14:20
WBS Uher, (1) (Deslauriers), 18:34 (EN)
Eric Neilson and Mike Angelidis were the game's first and second stars. Things got out of hand in the Third Period (obviously) after Cedric Paquette (who also got his first professional goal in the game) took a Game Misconduct for boarding that led to a pair of Penguins goals that helped flip the outcome.
Syracuse is off until Friday when they'll face Binghamton.
Box score from TheAHL.com.
AHL Preseason Game Day: 9-29-13 Crunch at IceCapsSubmitted by pete on September 29, 2013 - 17:58
Syracuse finishes the preseason up.
Cedrick Desjardins allowed 3 goals on 29 shots for the loss, but was also named the game's third star in defeat.
Nikita Nesterov had a shorthanded goal for the Crunch and added a helper in the contest. Cedric Paquette got the Crunch's second goal, deflecting a Nesterov point shot on the power play.
Syracuse will get an influx of 8 players from Tampa Bay, including veteran Dana Tyrell and ex-first rounder Brett Connolly. They'll have a week of practice before opening their season Saturday in Binghamton against the Senators.

The North Carolina General Assembly passed new gun control legislation this past session which was signed into law by Governor Pat McCrory on July 29, 2013. House Bill 937 significantly changes North Carolina's concealed handgun permit regulation and lifts certain prohibitions regarding the carrying of a concealed weapon. Effective October 1, 2013, concealed handgun permit holders may carry their weapon into an establishment which serves alcohol unless the establishment posts conspicuous notices prohibiting concealed weapons. House Bill 937 additionally allows concealed handgun permit holders to leave their gun in their locked vehicle while parked in an area owned or leased by State government. The bill includes additional provisions affecting educational property, locally controlled parks, places where tickets are sold for admission, parades and funerals.
While many North Carolina employers remain unaffected by this new legislation, it serves as a reminder that employers must take affirmative action in order to prohibit weapons in the workplace. To bar employees from carrying concealed weapons while on the job, employers must post conspicuous signage notifying all employees that weapons are not permitted on the premises.

Regenerating Crew in the Vo'Quv
Hello All,
I've finally got to do some extended PVP with my Vo'Quv to see how all the changes that were made to the Carrier effects my play style.
My Snapping Turtle build still does quite well for the most part; however, it does have a very costly flaw.
I use Feedback Pulse 3 and I boost its effectiveness with 3 x Rare Induction Stabilizer Mk XI, it would be 4but I use the Borg console in the 4th slot.
If I can stay alive I come in 2 or 3 in total damage.
The problem is if I die once, I end up with no crew and start getting owned if I don't have any team protection.
The worst part about loosing crew count is that all of the heals that work of the crew system loose effectiveness and makes my Carrier that much softer.
If you play consecutive PVP matches, your crew count never regenerates and you just keep getting softer and softer.
The damage that I'm getting off of Feedback Pulse is what makes the build deadly and helped keep Escorts at bay; however, now it seems that I'll have to load up my science console slots with Rare Biofunction Monitor Mk XI just to try to keep my crew count up.
I use to use Tactical Team to help with crew recovery but now Tactical Team does not effect crew recovery.
What steps if any are you guys taking to help mantain your crew count?
When we respawn, we should respawn with our full crew compliment.
I went through 6 cap and hold matches and never was able to get my crew count above 1500 after I got popped in my very 1st match.

Web Graphic Designers in the United States pull down an average of $42K per year. Total cash compensation to Web Graphic Designers bottoms out near $26K and approaches $63K on the high end; the biggest paychecks include approximately $3K from bonuses and almost $5K from profit sharing. Location and tenure each impact pay for this group, with the former having the largest influence. Women make up a slight majority of Web Graphic Designers (50 percent) survey respondents. Unfortunately, some people in this line of work are without benefits — slightly less than a third lack coverage. On the flip side, the larger part have medical insurance and more than half receive dental plans. Most Web Graphic Designers like their work and job satisfaction is high. This report is based on responses to the PayScale salary survey.

These designers must be able to communicate the company's philosophy and culture in words, sounds, applications, pictures, videos, colors, and other visual and audio methods. They are creative individuals who are knowledgeable in the latest multimedia software applications and products, as well as design techniques. Web graphic designers often either work for a company on a freelance basis or in their marketing department. Many are self-employed.Read More...
Web graphic designer must have great communication skills to work with company leaders to convey the tone of the company to the public.

They are well-versed in the latest web trends and possess business acumen, as they must understand the company's target audience. They must be able to manage their time for long- term projects. They have an acute visual flair. Since the internet is such a rapidly changing field, web graphic designers must be stay abreast of the latest technologies and web tools at all times.
Most employers prefer a web graphic designer with a bachelor's degree. A fine arts degree at a university is ideal, as is a balance between studio and classroom lecture time. Many web graphic designers also opt to have an associate's degree or certificate in graphic design or studio art.

At the upper end, Web Graphic Designers who move into a Creative Director role can end up with a hefty increase in pay. The average income for Creative Directors is a much higher $82K per year. It is quite typical for Web Graphic Designers to transition into roles as Web Designer & Developers or Senior Web Designers, where reported median earnings are $5K and $24K higher per year.
Survey results imply that Web Graphic Designers deploy a substantial tool kit of skills at work. Most notably, skills in Dreamweaver, Flash, Graphic Design, and Design are correlated to pay that is above average. Skills that pay less than market rate include Windows Operating System General Use. Those familiar with Adobe Illustrator also tend to know HTML.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience and pay tend to be weakly linked for Web Graphic Designers — those with more experience do not necessarily bring in higher earnings. Those who have worked for fewer than five years take home a median salary of $38K, and workers with five to 10 years of experience earn a higher $44K on average. Web Graphic Designers see a median salary of $45K after reaching one to two decades on the job. As Web Graphic Designers reach more than two decades on the job, compensation remains commensurate with experience; the average pay in this group is $53K.
For Web Graphic Designers, busy San Francisco offers a higher-than-average pay rate, 51 percent above the national average. Web Graphic Designers will also find cushy salaries in New York (+23 percent), Atlanta (+21 percent), Los Angeles (+14 percent), and San Diego (+11 percent). The lowest-paying market is Tampa, which sits 24 percent below the national average, proving that location is a significant contributor to overall pay.

Antique shops in Moriches
It's easy to pass right by, but tucked away off Montauk Highway in Moriches are 18 historic buildings and temporary sheds that make up a village of antiques and collectibles shops, all within easy walking distance of one another. Each is different, selling antiques, collectibles and unusual pieces. Just like the items for sale inside, the village itself is "a hidden treasure," says Bob Mohr, who runs the Hodge Podge Emporium shop there. "People have lived here for 40 years and don't even know we are here."

FAIRBORN — Wright State University President David R. Hopkins challenged graduates at the 2013 fall commencement to prove themselves "mentally strong" in the future.
"We want to prepare you to have not only the intellectual capabilities but the mental strength to deal with some of the great challenges you will face in your life," Hopkins said. He then listed five components of mental strength:
- Mentally strong people do not waste time feeling sorry for themselves.
- Mentally strong people do not shy away from change.
- Mentally strong people do not waste energy on things they can't control.
- Mentally strong people do not dwell on the past.
- Mentally strong people do not believe the world owes them something.
"Your success will be based solely on your merit," Hopkins said. "You will only earn what you have worked hard for. My wish for you is that you will always have the courage to be mentally strong."
The 1,735 students who had applied for degrees, certificates or endorsements celebrated their accomplishments during the Saturday, Dec. 14 ceremony at the Nutter Center.
The fall commencement class included graduates ranging in age from 20 to 67, including 146 international students from 25 nations. The international graduates included natives of Burkina Faso, Ghana, Iran, Israel, Kenya, Nepal, Nigeria, Syria, Togo and Vietnam.
The graduating class included applicants for 1,052 bachelor's degrees, 570 master's degrees and 113 other degrees and certificates.
Saturday's ceremony included recognition of faculty members K.T. Arasu (University Professor Award) and Joe Deer (Trustees' Award for Faculty Excellence). ETHOS, an a cappella group made up of Wright State students, performed a musical selection.

1. The undecideds are few and Barack Obama has a structural lead.
In Virginia, Obama leads 49 to 44, but only 5 are undecided. Furthermore, only 2% say they might switch before election day. That means even if Romney swept all the undecided vote, he'd still only have a tie. He's got a structural problem in Virginia.
In Florida, same story: Obama leads 49 to 44, but only 5 are undecided. He could win all of them and still be no closer to victory. Same thing, only 2% say they might flip before election day. He's got a structural problem in Florida.
In Ohio, the news is devastating: Obama leads 50 to 44, and once again only 5 are undecided. If Romney swept all the remaining undecideds, he's still going to lose Ohio. Worse, only 2% might flip.
What this means is that Romney has to start winning over committed Obama voters if he wants to win. An almost impossible feat considering the kind of campaign he has to run to get his white vote number up into the 60 to 65 percent range. What is the structural problem of which I speak? Demographics. The Republican Party is beginning to run into the demographic wall that has been foretold for years.
2. First Read notes a key point about these three states:
These states – all of which Obama carried in 2008 but which George W. Bush won in 2004 – represent three of the most crucial battlegrounds in the 2012 presidential election. And according to NBC's electoral map, Romney likely needs to capture at least two of these states, if not all three, to secure the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency.In other words, one of Romney's must win states is already gone, namely Ohio. This means Romney has to win Virginia and Florida together. The only way he can do that is by convincing some Obama voters to flip.
By comparison, Obama can reach 270 by winning just one or two of these battlegrounds – on top of the other states already considered to be in his column.
Meanwhile, all President Obama has to do is win Ohio and any other battleground state out there. He's in a commanding position with multiple strategic and tactical maneuvers at his disposal.
3. The poll was broad, surveying just under 1000 likely voters in each state and has a very low margin of error at 2.7%. Obama is ahead beyond the margin of error in every state.
4. The poll was conducted on the 9th, 10th, and 11th. Which means it full absorbed the Democratic Convention and Friday, September 7th jobs number. Notably, the poll was conducted before the Libya Incident.
That's the nail in the coffin for Romney. If the jobs numbers can't change the trajectory for him, his bet that a bad economy would sink Obama looks like a flimsy premise.
There are some other nuggets noting that the country still feels the country is on the wrong track, but there has been some improvement. Also, President Obama's job approval is up into positive territory and Mitt Romney has improved his favorability somewhat. When you take those factors together, it seems the voters in the battlegrounds have come to a conclusion: Mitt Romney is unfit to be president. America is sticking with President Obama.

Why the lack of love for the Crime Dog? Put his #'s next to those of most any that list and he smokes them and he did play defense (at a high level) and was never linked to 'roids. The man even stole 75 bases, not too shabby for a 1st bagger. I nearly added Dave Parker too but I had to cut off somewhere and I couldn't quite justify it.
On Martinez and Baines my position is you'd better have some specific milestone #'s or a smidge better (because their career was extended by the position) than most to get in and I just don't feel they qualify.
On McGwire, I believe he used roids and I think if it's illegal then it's in the rules even if it's not spelled out for them specifically IMO. Therefore you cheat you don't make it, sadly same goes for others of that ilk.

Alaska musher Dallas Seavey takes Iditarod lead
"Honestly, it's a team that can certainly win. But you know, you have to make the right decisions while you're out there," she said. "You have to watch your crew and hold them together. Anything can happen," she told the News-Miner.
The race began March 4 with 66 teams; seven are out of the race.
Rookies Pat Moon of Chicago, who was down to seven dogs, and Josh Cadzow, of Fort Yukon, also scratched. Cadzow, who was down to nine dogs, made the decision to leave the race in Kaltag in the best interest of his team, according to race officials.
The total purse is $550,000 for the first 30 finishers, with the winner receiving $50,400 and a new truck. The winner is expected in Nome early this week.
And Nome is getting ready for the annual influx of mushers and race fans.
McLarnon said volunteers were spending Sunday getting everything set up, including putting the finish line chute.
"The excitement is building," she said.

Hawkings: 'No excuse now' for GOP budget holdups
Now that the smoke is clear from the budget debate with the Homeland Security Department, Congress can look towards raising the debt limit. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) promises it can happen without the possibility of a shutdown. David Hawkings is Senior Editor of Roll Call. On In Depth with Francis Rose, he explained this and other deadlines approaching Capitol Hill over the next few weeks.

Tom Shoop, Editor in Chief, Government Executive
The effort to fund the Homeland Security Department is in chaos this afternoon. The House rejected a three-week continuing resolution after observers spent most of the day trying to figure out what the backup plan was -- without much success. Tom Shoop is Editor in Chief at Government Executive magazine. He broke down the odds of Congress passing a DHS budget on In Depth with Francis Rose.

Robert Autry, President, AFGE Local 4060
Funding for DHS expires at midnight tonight, which means Congress is quickly running out of time to pass another continuing resolution. If they don't do it today, nearly 30,000 employees will be furloughed. Among the hardest hit will be FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Robert Autry, president of the American Federation of Government Employees Local 4060, which represents FEMA headquarters employees here in Washington, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive to further explain how a shutdown would impact the agency.

Chris Cummiskey, Former Acting Undersecretary for Management, DHS
The full Senate will likely vote on a bill that would fund the Homeland Security Department past Friday's deadline. It's unclear what moves the House will make next. But DHS is preparing for the worst. Chris Cummiskey was acting undersecretary for management at DHS during the government shutdown in 2013. On In Depth with Francis Rose, he told Federal News Radio's Emily Kopp what DHS managers are doing to prepare.

DHS Secretary Johnson baffled by 'absurd' budget conversation
A vote in the Senate could come as early as Thursday on a bill that would fund the Homeland Security Department beyond this Friday. If passed, the bill would still have to clear the House, before being sent to the President's desk. While Congress was busy making moves Wednesday, DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson went on the offensive to ensure Congress doesn't shut down his department. 30,000 DHS workers would be sent home and the trickle-down effect on state and local governments and law enforcement organizations would worsen if Congress doesn't pass a bill, Johnson said.

Stop us if you've heard this before. Congress, divided over policy, threatens to let funding lapse for federal agencies. That would cause furloughs for some, and working without pay for others. The last time it happened, federal employees had grounds for a lawsuit over violations of labor law. Could it happen again for Homeland Security employees? As part of this week's Legal Loop, Heidi Burakiewicz, a partner at the law firm Mehri & Skalet, joined Tom Temin on the Federal Drive with some answers.

Placing bling is a competitive thing at the Oscars
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. Breathtaking baubles fill the glass cases at Martin Katz's jewelry showroom near Rodeo Drive, but during Oscar week, he keeps some of the most impressive pieces in a semiprivate back room.
That's where millions of dollars in diamonds – bracelets, earrings, necklaces, cuff links and flower-shaped brooches – sit on a gray velvet tray, quietly auditioning for a spot on the world's most celebrated red carpet.
It's a competitive week for jewelers and designers, all vying for an invaluable place in Oscar's spotlight.
"It almost becomes a pirhana-like business," Katz says.
It's "staggeringly competitive ... because it's such a fantastic advertisement for the brand," says Sally Morrison, director of the Diamond Information Center, an umbrella organization that promotes the industry. "It's very powerful. They get associated with a celebrity who is looking magnificent, who is at the height of their achievement and all that that implies."
Says stylist Tara Swennen, who is dressing at least one Oscar ingenue this year: "A placement at the Oscars on one of these girls is worth $50 million of advertising."
Such competition complicates the business, says Katz, who first began loaning his gems for red carpet wear in 1991. Where borrowing diamonds was once based strictly on personal relationships, nowadays stylists and celebs can pull in big paychecks for agreeing to promote a particular jeweler's designs, he says.
Some jewelers seek red-carpet placement by designing special pieces with a certain star in mind and hoping she'll wear it, Morrison says, while others cart in truckloads of diamonds and set up suites for stylists making last-minute decisions.
Swennen says she typically picks the dress first, then chooses two or three jewelry looks for her client to consider. She typically turns to designers she works with regularly.
Katz welcomed several celebrity regulars at his showroom on Friday, as well as stylist George Kotsiopoulos, who the jeweler has worked with for nearly 10 years.
Kotsiopoulos, who is dressing one of this year's Oscar darlings, banters with the jeweler and his associate, Jay Carlile, before getting down to business. Carlile brings out two pairs of spectacular earrings and sets them on the gray velvet tray. Kotsiopoulos concentrates.
"My concern with these is they're a little stiff," he says, eyeing a filigreed pair.
Carlile shows him a pair of 10-carat, $1.8 million diamond drop earrings.
"These are awesome," Kotsiopoulos says. "These are bigger than the SAG ones, right? I gotta make sure." (He wants to top the look his client wore to last month's Screen Actors Guild Awards.)
The stylist peruses the jewelry cases and selects an oversized black-diamond ring, then picks out one more pair of earrings.
"I should have these as well, just to make sure," he says. A representative from the Diamond Information Center takes notes and arranges to insure the gems.
Kotsiopoulos says he chose his client's dress over a month ago and immediately knew Katz's designs were "right" for the look.
The gown – and the star's personality – dictate diamond choice, Katz says. He advises his star clients, "This is your chance to be you and not a character, so you should wear jewelry that appeals to you," he says. "You want to look appropriate, so the jewelry is not wearing the person."

An optimal domain decomposition preconditioner
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: The time-harmonic Maxwell equations are considered in the low-frequency case. A finite element domain decomposition approach is proposed for the numerical approximation of the exact solution. This leads to an iteration-by-subdomain procedure, which is proven to converge. The rate of convergence turns out to be independent of the mesh size, showing that the preconditioner implicitly defined by the iterative procedure is optimal. For obtaining this convergence result it has been necessary to prove a regularity theorem for Dirichlet and Neumann harmonic fields.

Latest Mycobacterium leprae Stories
Scientists are using thousand-year-old remains to help reconstruct the genomes of the medieval leprosy pathogen and uncover the history of the disease.
Scientists have identified a source for some of the unexplained Leprosy cases that appear in the southern US - the nine-banded armadillo.
A new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine reveals a new strain of leprosy has surfaced in the Southern United States.
Largest genome-wide association study of an infectious disease.
For thousands of years an undesirable and persistent companion has been traveling with man wherever he goes. Mycobacterium leprae, the bacterium that causes leprosy, has only one known natural host – mankind.
Researchers claim to have discovered the earliest evidence of leprosy in a 4,000-year-old skeleton from India.
A new species of bacterium that causes leprosy has been identified through intensive genetic analysis of a pair of lethal infections, a research team reports in the December issue of the American Journal of Clinical Pathology.
By Hussain, Tahziba A quick glance at this review article provides an insight into the common and different features of M. leprae and M. tuberculosis and the diseases caused by these organisms.
Latest Mycobacterium leprae Reference Libraries
Mycobacterium leprae, mostly found in warm tropical countries, is a bacterium that causes leprosy (Hansen's disease). It is an intracellular, pleomorphic, acid-fast bacterium. M. leprae is an aerobic rod-shaped surrounded by the characteristic waxy coating unique to mycobacteria tuberculosis. Due to its thick waxy coating, M. leprae stains with a carbol fuscin rather than with the traditional Gram stain. Gerhard Armauer Hansen first discovered it in 1873. It was the first bacterium to be...

Memoir of a Lurker
Ahh, final, an empty board. Although I hadn't been searching long, it still took me a tad longer to find than I had previously expected. Perhaps if I had been more methodical in my search patterns, rather than choosing boards and systems at random, I would have found many more much sooner. But no matter, for I am on this board now, and shall make this post now.
Despite not expecting such a long (5-10 min) journey, I realize now that I'm not sure what to post. But this has always been my Achilles heel. Well, thats not entirely true. My true crux is that no matter how witty or clever a post I think of, I never seem to be able to hit that "post message" button. You see, my good reader, I am a lurker.
Not your everyday lurker, either. I've been lurking since, oh, probably 2001. I made this account when I realized that my old account had a terrible name, and also because I had turned 13 in 2003 and decided I wanted a "legal" account.
I wonder at times why I lurk. I see so many people that post so many mundane things, and at times I find myself wishing I could be like them. For some reason, I feel the same social awkwardness on the internet that I do in real life. I see all these people on a board that will read what I write, and get stage fright. Even now, as I post to this empty board, I feel some slight fear at the select few of you who will read this, if there are even any of you at all that will.
Perhaps I'll find another board like this and continue this, my memoir. At the time of writing this, there is another empty board somewhere under the GameGear. I'll probably post there in a few hours, now that I've got this fever (only prescription=more posting).

In a hint that further steps could be taken to cool the market, the bank's deputy governor for financial stability, Sir Jon Cunliffe, warned: "It would be dangerous to ignore the momentum that has built up in the UK housing market."
He highlighted the fact that there are several UK precedents for house price booms which have ended in a crash. The warnings came in a week of strong housing market figures, including building society Nationwide reporting that annual house price growth is back in double digits for the first time in four years and Land Registry data showing that around one in 13 homes in London are now selling for over £1 million. However, Simon Rettie, managing director of Rettie & Co contrasted that with the situation in Scotland, where prices have grown slower.
Registers of Scotland figures released last week show that the annual house price has grown by 3.5 per cent in the last 12 months to stand at £153,352.
Mr Rettie said: "In Scotland we're still getting back to pre-crash levels, and some areas have not even reached that yet. We are a long way behind the market in London and the south of England ."
He added: "In Edinburgh and Glasgow the market is performing much better with some properties achieving their full home report value or better, although rural property lags behind."

Special Correspondent
VELLORE: The Vellore district administration has mooted a proposal to bring four more municipalities — Arcot, Ranipet, Walajapet and Tharapadavedu — four more town panchayats and 32 more village panchayats under the proposed Vellore Corporation, to be formed by upgrading the Vellore Municipality.
By a resolution passed at an emergency meeting of the Vellore Municipal Council presided over by Vellore Municipal Chairman P. Karthikeyan on June 9, the Vellore Municipality had recommended to the Tamil Nadu government and the Vellore District Collector, the inclusion of the following third grade municipalities, four special grade town panchayats, 23 village panchayats and two reserve forest (RF) areas in the proposed Vellore Corporation to be formed by upgrading the Vellore Municipality:
Third Grade Municipalities — Sathuvachari and Melvisharam; special grade town panchayats — Shenbakkam, Thorappadi, Allapuram and Pennathur; village panchayats — Alamelu Rangapuram, Perumugai, Venkatapuram, Arapakkam, Poottuthacku, Keezhminnal, Nandhiyalam, Konavattam, Ariyoor, Chitheri, Viruppakshipuram, Palavansathu, Idayansathu, Thuthipattu, Adukkamparai, Karugambathur, Sadhupperi, Sirukanji, Abdullapuram, Kuppam, Sembedu, Keezhmonavur and Melmonavur; RF areas — Vellore RF and Palamathi RF.
Following requests from the people living in the urban local bodies coming under the Katpadi Assembly Constituency and located closer to Vellore, the State government decided to include the Katpadi town panchayat and nearby village and town panchayats and the Tharapadavedu Third Grade Municipality under the Vellore Corporation. This led to proposals for inclusion of three more municipalities (in addition to Tharapadavedu), four more town panchayats and 32 more village panchayats in the proposed Vellore Corporation.
At a meeting convened at the Collectorate here on Thursday, the Collector Dharmendra Pratap Yadav sought resolutions from the chairpersons of the Arcot, Ranipet, Walajapet and Tharapadavedu municipalities, the presidents of the town panchayats of Kazhinjur, Gandhinagar, Katpadi and Tiruvalam and the heads of the following 32 village panchayats seeking the inclusion of their local bodies in the Vellore Corporation:
Virudhambut, Kangeyanallur, Thandalam Krishnapuram, Vanjur, Jaffrapet, Vandaranthangal, Karigiri, Kandippedu, Serkadu, Erthangal, Sembarayanallur, Arimuthumottur, Ammundi, Karnambut, Arumbaruthi, Sevoor, Brammapuram and Puthur (all in Katpadi panchayat union).

The Collector told The Hindu that the Vellore Municipal chairman has been asked to convene a meeting of the municipal council and pass a fresh resolution seeking the annexation of all the above local bodies to Vellore Municipality.

HY325: Retreat from Power: British Foreign and Defence Policy, 1931-68
Professor Matthew Jones
The period between the onset of the Manchurian Crisis of 1931 and the decision of the Wilson Government in 1968 to accelerate the withdrawal from East of Suez saw Britain's position in the world transformed under the multiple pressures of economic decline, world war, nationalist opposition to colonial control, and the demands of Cold War confrontation with the Soviet Union and international communism more generally. This course examines how this change occurred by studying several central episodes in British foreign and defence policy. Its focus is predominantly on high-level policymaking in the diplomatic, military and economic realms, but it will all give attention to shifts in popular attitudes, parliamentary debates, the influence of electoral considerations, and the larger-scale transitions taking place in the international system. In common with other Level 3 courses, it will include study and discussion of primary sources throughout. Specific topics include the Italian invasion of Ethiopia; the Munich Agreement of 1938 and appeasement; British strategy in the Second World War; Anglo-Soviet relations in the Second World War; the formation of NATO; the Korean War; the Malayan emergency; Suez crisis; the first application to join the EEC; and the withdrawal from East of Suez in the 1960s.

Prior to the release of the Microsoft ODBC Desktop Driver Pack version 2.0, there was no way to programmatically create a Microsoft Access database (an .mdb file). For more details about this, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
118609With the release of the version 2.0 driver pack and higher, MFC ODBC applications can now create .mdb files. Additionally, with the incorporation of DAO into Visual C++ 4.x or higher, you have another way to create Microsoft Access databases programmatically.
(https://support.microsoft.com/kb/118609/EN-US/ )How To Create an .MDB File for Microsoft Access Databases
Using the Microsoft Access ODBC Driver to Create .MDB FilesKyle Geiger's book "Inside ODBC" provides a sample program, ODBCACC, that nicely demonstrates how to use the ODBC installer DLL API function SQLConfigDataSource to create an .mdb file. The syntax of the function call is:
hwndParent is either NULL if no dialogs are to be displayed or a valid hwnd to act as parent to any driver generated dialogs.NOTE: Unlike most other ODBC API functions, SQLConfigDataSource returns a boolean value. This return value is TRUE if the .mdb was created, FALSE if creation failed.
fRequest is ODBC_ADD_DSN to specify creation of the .mdb file.
lpszDriver is Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb).
lpszAttributes is "CREATE_DB=<path><filename>.mdb <sort order>\0" where the <path><filename> combination identifies where the file should be created and <sort order> is language sorting order (for example, General). <path> must be specified even if the .mdb is to be created in the current working directory. Use standard relative path syntax.
To use the installer DLL functions, you must:
Using DAO to Create .MDB FilesDAO allows applications developed with Visual C++ 4.x to interface with the Microsoft Jet database engine directly. This allows more efficient manipulation of Microsoft Access objects than can be achieved through ODBC, including the creation of .mdb files. For a sample program that demonstrates how to create databases and other objects, search the Microsoft Knowledge Base for the DAOTABLE sample.
Note To compile this sample in Visual C++ .NET 2002 and Visual C++ .NET 2002, change the following line or lines in the code:
Sample CodeUse of SQLConfigDataSource ODBC installer DLL API function:
This will create ATest.mdb in the application's working directory using general sorting.
