My last listicle wasn't unhelpful enough. They're easy to write*, so I did another one. Here's how to ensure that the contract you sign is a bad one. (more…)
10 stupid contract clauses
Happy New Year.
These are the ten daftest things I've seen people try to insert into contracts over the last twelve months. I've translated them into English. (more…)
You're Wrong: an F.A.Q.
Q. Am I really wrong?
Q. Are you sure?
Q. Can you prove that I'm wrong?
Yes, but, you'll have to agree in advance what proof looks like, otherwise you could just move the goalposts after the game.
Q. How come I have so much evidence that I'm right?
That's confirmation bias. Your brain carefully files away all the reasons you might be right, and disregards all the reasons you might be wrong.
Q. How come so many people agree with me?
They're wrong too.
Q. They can't all be wrong, can they?
Most people are wrong about most things most of the time. If there's one remarkable discovery to be made in the study of science, religion and philosophy, it's that being wrong about almost everything does people so little harm. The fact that every scientific discovery since the stone age has only doubled our life expectancy is a cutting indictment of the futility of knowledge in the face of ignorance.
Q. What about the evidence that I should be right?
Those are mostly just reasons why it's embarrassing that you're wrong.
Q. What about the mathematical proof that I'm probably right?
That just means we should have been momentarily surprised that you were wrong. Total denial is not called for.
Q. Why has nobody told me this before?
Given the way you're acting now, it's hard to imagine anybody feeling like you might be anything but completely receptive to information relating to your wrongness.
Q. So what? I'm supposed to completely rethink everything I thought I knew?
Well, bumbling blindly got you this far, and we wouldn't be exploring all our options unless we at least considered elective ignorance. Eternal darkness loses some of its lustre once you embark upon it willingly, though, so perhaps you should take comfort in the knowledge that you're probably wrong about all sorts of other things, too.
Musopen, I've got a bone to pick with you
Dear Aaron Dunn (founder of Musopen),
My gripe is pretty simple:
You have a website dedicated to giving away music that is in the public domain. Some of the music on your website is not in the public domain. It belongs to people, who should be getting paid when it is downloaded. You have made almost no effort to prevent this, and you hide behind an absurd interpretation of a law you don't understand in order to justify your continued inaction.
Let's start with the public domain. Authors are entitled to copyright protection for a period of time, after which their work becomes free for anybody to reproduce. Copyright terms are a bit confusing, but if you want to know if something is free in the major markets, it works like this:
I also wrote…
I wrote an article for New Music Box about cover art last month. You can read it here. Or just skip the text and look at the silly illustrations.
I also wrote an opinion piece for Classical Music about giving away your masters. It's not available on their website, so I'm including the text below. I'm sorry there aren't any pictures… (more…)
Bad Maths
I'm often astonished at the extent to which people who run record companies can be bad at maths.
Yesterday I sat in a meeting where it was suggested that the success of a promotion might be measured be checking the sales of the records in it before, during and after the promotion. It's not a totally barmy approach, but without comparing the sales of the records in the promotion with sales of some other records over the same period, any increase or decrease might be the result of normal sales patterns or overall fluctuations in the market.
Still, that's not nearly as daft as this thing I found today. The headline is "Which music services are growing, which are shrinking" which would make for a pretty interesting article if it actually told you the answer to that question.*
It's not easy to measure this unless you sell music on these all the services** so the author has instead used Google Trends to find out which services people are searching for. In the medical world, this is known as a surrogate outcome. The thing you want to measure is difficult to measure, so you measure something related instead. It can go wrong.
The trouble is that a related variable isn't necessarily strongly correlated to the outcome you care about. If you're gong to use a surrogate like this, it's a good idea to check if it's really easy to find examples of it not working at all well. The examples below are literally the first things I searched for.
According to Google Trends, Steve Jobs was never more in demand than the day he died, and is still not as unpopular as when he was alive (that last bit might be true).
Perhaps its fairer to compare Google Trends with a better-known indicator of company performance: share price. Here, Berkshire Hathaway's search popularity has been in steady decline for the best part of a decade.
Don't tell their shareholders that, though. According to the NYSE, business has never been better.
Meanwhile, at Yahoo, search interest hit a high plateau in 2010:
And the stock price is doing almost the exact opposite.
Pretty much the entire foundation of all scientific progress is to come up with an idea and then try to prove it wrong, because if you can't prove it wrong, you might just be on to something. If the author had made even a cursory attempt to check how poorly search popularity was correlated with company performance, I think he might have offered a stronger disclaimer than:
"Of course, these search trends are not the same as having an actual measure of activity. Millions of people play music on Spotify or iTunes every day without performing a search. However, until we can get raw user numbers from every music service, this is probably about the closest we can get to understanding which services are growing and which are shrinking."
When I wrote "almost everything you read about the state of the record industry is, at best, totally useless" this is just the sort of thing I was talking about.
* Perhaps I should avoid reading articles with questions in the headlines. If they ever answer the question, it's because the answer is "probably not". This is often the way with rhetorical questions.***
** If you don't sell music, why do you even care which ones are growing?
*** And did those feet, in ancient time, walk upon England's mountains green?**** And was the holy Lamb of God, On Englands pleasant pastures seen?**** And did the Countenance Divine, Shine forth upon our clouded hills?**** And was Jerusalem builded here, Among these dark Satanic Mills?****
**** Probably not.
Woulez Boulez
I stumbled upon this Boulez/Deutsche Grammophon record this week.
There's something about it that seems a bit unfinished. Like they'd cut out the background to replace it with something cool, and then either got sidetracked or possibly ran out of time.
I wonder what they took out…
…and what they planned to put in.
I know what I'd have done.
100% Employment? 95% Bullshit.
The Times Higher Education Supplement and the Independent reported yesterday that the Royal Academy of Music enjoy's the UK's highest graduate employment rate at 100%.
There's a small chance somebody might make a fairly important career decision (or at least spend £36,000) on the basis of this 100% figure (or perhaps on the basis of the Independent's unambiguous advice "If you want to be employed after uni, study music"), and as these two respectable publications were apparently too busy to find out what it actually means, I thought I'd do it. It took 15 minutes. Here we go: (more…)
You can rarely have it all
I've finally figured out how to do Venn/Euler diagrams. This could be trouble.
One year
On May 10th, my little company (Proper Discord Ltd) celebrated its first anniversary. Since then, I've had the privilege to work with some amazing clients, we've made some lovely records, built some interesting companies and welcomed a new baby into the family.
I relaunched this blog a year ago with a video offering unhelpful advice on pronouncing composers' names.
I stole the idea, quite shamelessly, from this.
My video clocked up more than 26,000 views* on YouTube, of which more than 3,000 happened last week, after (though not necessarily because) the New York Phil shared it on Twitter (which was nice of them).
I really like playing around with all the statistics you can get from YouTube. It tells me, among other things, that the average viewer in the US and UK watched 50 seconds of that video: long enough to enjoy the funny bits, but not long enough to catch the message I wanted to get across. I'll bear this in mind for other projects, where it might make more sense to put the commercial call to action nearer the start.
You know what's weird, though? While the average English-speaking user watches 85% of the video, the average Bolivian viewer watches 142% of it. Jordan, Estonia, Indonesia, Armenia and handful of other places also enjoy >100% "engagement".
To begin with, I thought this must be some sort of mathematical error, but then I realised these viewers weren't watching it for fun.
They were studying it.
So next time you meet somebody from Estonia, write "Thomas Tallis" on a piece of paper, and ask them to read it out loud. Just in case.
* Divide 26,000 views by Boyle's Constant, and I should be able to sell almost two albums. Seriously. This stuff is commercial gold. I've never really made a coherent effort to turn YouTube views into blog traffic – this isn't what the videos are for – but it's interesting to see how little traffic it does generate. In the last year, a total of 13 days worth of video has been streamed from my channel. It probably wasn't all watched at work, but any time you spent watching my videos could have been spent working, and at the US minimum wage, that's $2,385 worth of time spent bringing 244 people to my blog. That's right. Each visitor I get from YouTube costs the music industry $9.77.
To give you an idea of just how bad this is, I got more incoming traffic (284 visits) from Google+. I didn't know there were 284 people on Google+.
Almost all the incoming traffic comes from Facebook, search engines and Twitter. Some posts go crazy on Twitter, others on Facebook, I can't figure out any logic to what is popular where, so I put it down to luck: it's unlikely enough that a post about statistics related to marketing classical music would go viral anywhere.
$9.77 is about £6.23. My work website (andydoe.com) doesn't get a lot of traffic, but that's ok, because it's well targeted: I make £16 for every visitor I get. Since properdiscord.com gets 60 visitors for each one that it refers to the blog, an entirely YouTube-based marketing campaign for my business (via this blog) would cost the music industry £23.50 in lost productivity for every £1 I made in increased revenue, assuming, well, a whole lot of "it would carry on just like this" stuff we should really have learned our lesson about by now. Anyhow. This footnote is now longer than the post to which it is appended, and we should probably both be getting back to work.
But, like a Beethoven coda, this footnote keeps coming. I could have stopped there. Or the paragraph before. Really, it would have been perfectly adequate with just the first paragraph. Or even just the first line. That had all the good bits in it. The rest was just excessive development. But I can't seem to find a way. I should just stop typing. Like Miles Davis said, or is supposed to have said, just "take the horn out of your mouth". But somehow it's not that easy.What would Beethoven do? V-I-V-I-V-I. I. I. I.

Justin Bieber may not be completely over his public breakup from Selena Gomez, and his newest tune appears to prove it.
According to an article published by Hollywood Life on May 25, the latest Justin Bieber song, called "It's Working", seems to be directed straight at his former girlfriend.
"You know exactly what to do to hurt me. It's working. It's working," go the lines of the plaintive ballad with a decidedly funky groove. The short clip even manages to be quite artistic, as the lens focuses in on the title of the track, coming into clear view just as the clip ends.
The video snippet shown here was taken from Bieber's Instagram account and cross published to YouTube on his own channel. So, it looks like he's trying to get a message across, whether it's to Selena Gomez or one of the other, many young ladies seen on his arm in the last few months.
In fact, it's hard to pin down exactly who Justin Bieber might be reaching out to, if, indeed, it's any real woman at all. There's still such a thing as artistic license after all.
MTV follows the trail and comes to a similar conclusion about the hidden meaning behind the catchy lyrics of the song.
But, as HL reports rightly, contenders for the honor might also include a bevy of young beauties, including super models in training, Yovanna Ventura and Barbara Palvin.
The on again/off again nature of the Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez romance is a natural for any gossip column to cover. But, perhaps it's in the dozens of comments left on the Hollywood Life article that the real meaning emerges.
They're overwhelmingly pro-Selena.
Citing Justin Bieber's recent emergence as a real "bad boy" and not just a wannabe, it seems that, of the two, Selena Gomez is the one who can hold her head high over some less glamorous events in the recent past, even if she wasn't always the perfect angel herself.
In other words, "It's Working."

the guinea pig needs more viamens and minerals then this food provides. They also need a little variety thrown in here and there with treats and such. It would help them to be more encouraged to eat it every day.. but without throwing in fresh fruits it would become too blah for them.
Pros: they eat it all
Cons: not enough for a daily diet

About Frank Bennett
A sunset provision in legislation with effects this deep isn't really aimed at decommissioning -- no one has suggested that the issues addressed by this bill will have faded in five years. Rather, expiration of the legislation will trigger campaign contributions from private firms and industry groups that by then will have integrated its provisions into their business practices. It's all pretty ugly.

Mercer Island would be a very different place today if some ideas from the past had borne fruit. We see all around us the result of what did happen. But what might have happened if events had taken a slightly different turn?
This fun, engaging presentation will take a look at what might have been if some plans for Mercer Island's future had come to pass. It's Mercer Island: the Un-History. You'll also learn the back story on some of the key events that did occur on the Island and that shaped the way our community is today. Sponsored by the Friends of the Mercer Island Library.

San Telmo, where old world charm meets trendy shopping, restaurants & nightlife. Step back in time into the cobblestone streets of San Telmo and you get a feel of how Buenos Aires was a hundred years ago. This was the place that people aspired to live before the northern suburbs became popular. 4 balconies. Furniture & appliances were chosen to make your stay as comfortable & convenient as possible. Heated bathroom floors. Fully-stocked gourmet kitchen. Beds include a queen, 2 full size & 4 twins, Hi-speed internet & Wi-Fi. VOIP phone/free calls home
Hi, Ruben
Bob and I wanted to thank you for taking such good care of us on our recent visit to Buenos Aires.
Right from the moment we met your at the airport your knowledge of the city and its history enhanced our visit.
We especially enjoyed the day we spent with you touring the city using public transport. Lunch at the local restaurant was a highlight. Our comfort with the bus and subway system after that day really allowed us the freedom to tour the city on our own.
The tango show and the river cruise were both wonderful. We appreciated your help in arranging the tours.
The apartment was wonderful. It allowed us to spend some wonderful time with the kids that just wouldn't have been possible if we had rented hotel rooms. San Telmo was wonderful - the Sunday market, the area restaurants were highlights of our stay.
Thanks for your time and great care while we were in Buenos Aires.
Bob & Vivian
Our group of three stayed in this beautiful San Telmo apartment prior to our dove hunting trip in Cordoba. Everything is walking distance...The huge market Sunday on Defensa was only a block away and we ate at two of the best steak restaurants in the area (Gran Parilla Del Plata and La Brigada) both within walking distance. The apartment's WiFi was great and we were all able to receive our emails and communicate with work/home while being gone; It was also nice with the Vonage line which allowed us to call back home when needed. Ruben, their local contact, was a wonderful help and he gave us a great overview and even helped us exchange our USD for Pesos. The owners are easy to work with and very flexible as we had to check in early and check out late to make this work! Highly Recommended - I will use them when I come back with my wife for a BA visit.
Our group of three business men enjoyed an amazing 10 days from 30 August to 8 September. Janet could not have been more accommodating to our schedule and so very helpful in getting arrangements and details worked out. The place was everything that was promised and more. So many thoughtful details (110 volt, washer and dryer, larger refrigerator, dish washer, lots of hot water, wiFi, Vonage to call clients and home etc.). The location is fantastic to get to transportation as well as the market (Quilmes 6.9, cheese, fresh fruit and vegetables), amazing food, beverages, coffee etc. etc. are all around. The balcony is a great perch to sit and watch the goings on of the neighborhood each evening after our days of travel throughout BA. It was always our location to enjoy appetizers before going out (sociably late) for dinner at local restaurants eating the best rib eye ever and drinking the best red wines and visiting with locals.
And the added bonus is of course Ruben. We had him fix a meal for us one night and take us to the best steak house in town on another. To be honest, Ruben beat the steakhouse for the most amazing meal. The combination of a meal never to be forgotten and his remarkable knowledge of South America makes for evenings of lively conversation and a much greater depth to your travel experience. Don't miss the opportunity to have at least one private dinner by Ruben and do it early in your stay because you will likely want to do it again. Ruben steered us to the best leather shops to get gifts for our wives (the European leather in the best shops is amazing and resulted in many smiles upon our return). Also the places for empanadas, pasta and even travel to Colonia (and what to look for while there). He also was incredibly helpful with money exchange (best rates anywhere).
In short the combination of a great place to stay, exceptional personal assistance and the current exchange rate made for the most amazing stay. We'll be back with family and friends in the future!
Our group of six adults spent two weeks living in this lovely apartment. It occupies the top floor and is quiet and spacious. High ceilings and equally high windows fill the living space with light. We cooked dinners in the kitchen and dined at the dining room table. The fireplace provided warmth and plenty of seating when we returned from adventures in the cool of the Buenos Aires winter. Each couple also had their own bedroom and bathroom so privacy was easily guaranteed. The apartment had everything we needed, including blow dryers and an iron.
The location is excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed living in San Telmo. The neighborhood has restaurants both for coffee or lunch and for excellent dinners. The best meals we had in the city were in restaurants within easy walking distance from the apartment. It is also very close to Porto Madero where some of us walked and some ran every morning without the worry caused by traffic. San Telmo contains antique shops, museums, a wonderful market, grocery stores, and all that we needed for our everyday needs.
Finally, we rented the apartment largely because the reviews noted the assistance of Ruben. None of us speak Spanish and were a bit nervous about that. Ruben was actually out of the country during our stay. His substitute, Andy, was fabulous. He not only answered every question, helped us arrange travel outside of the city, accompanied us on those travels when we requested, but he also listened carefully to our individual interests and help us explore those. The owner was also tremendously helpful as we planned for the trip and was clearly invested in our having a successful trip.
My family and I stayed at this beautiful San Telmo apartment during our recent trip to Buenos Aires. The unit is very well equipped with everything you need and fit our party of six more than comfortably. Even better than the apartment was the assistance and hospitality of Ruben. From the moment Ruben picked us up at the airport he ensured all our needs were met. In addition to the providing transportation and setting up tickets for shows, Ruben gave us an amazing tour of the City using the public transportation system. Not only did this tour provide us the tools to navigate the city on our own during the rest of our stay, but due to Ruben's incredible wealth of knowledge about Argentina we recived an in depth history lesson along the way. I couldn't have asked for a better trip and would recommend the combination of this apartment and Ruben to anyone planning a trip to Buenos Aires.
We just returned from 10 days in this great apartment. It is spacious enough for eight adults to be together for dinner or talking and yet everyone could have their own private space as well. The kitchen is great and we took advantage of the local foods three times to make our own Parilla!
The property manager is Ruben and frankly we all want to return just to spend more time with him and to have more of his great cooking! We were greeted at the airport by him, he showed us the apartment, gave us an amazing tour of the city and was helpful in just too many ways to list. He found us a tango show, tango lessons with Alejandro Puerta (a must) and a wine shop Vinotango (the best wine selection and ask the owner to sing for you).
The place was immaculate, well stocked with kitchen and household items, having 110 available was real advantage to our group of i-pad lovers. The wifi really made us feel at home.
The location in San Telmo made you feel immediately that you were a local. Everything from great bars, restaurants, shopping and sightseeing are within walking distance. The buses are also close by for those trips to other parts of the city.
If you are a family or a group of friends this is a great place to stay!
We (three adults and one teenager) stayed at this San Telmo apartment for 11 days in December 2011. The apartment was a perfect pied-a-terre for us to relax after long walks and excursions or to do a bit of work on the computer. We found it exactly as described on the website. The apartment is generously sized in a beautiful old building, nicely renovated, well maintained and very comfortable. As far as amenities, it is not missing anything. We loved that it was outfitted with 110V and US type sockets and a station that allowed us to charge our various iphones, ipods and ipads at night. It is close to many restaurants. Bus stops are only a couple of blocks away and the orange bike rental is right around the corner. Having rented this apartment on Carlos Calvo made our stay so much more pleasurable. We would recommend this place to anyone traveling to Buenos Aires.
This elegant, bright and airy San Telmo apartment is surrounded by antique shops, restaurants, and milongas (tango clubs). It's great for friends traveling together. The neighborhood: Old world charm meets trendy shopping, restaurants and nightlife. Located in the heart of the action - only a block from Plaza Dorrego (site of the famous Sunday Art and Antique Fair) - and three blocks from Puerto Madero (tons of waterfront restaurants, nightclubs, and even an Ecological preserve!). You can safely walk to everything. See our website at for a map and list of nearby restaurants and attractions.
Other Activities: shopping, boating, spa, bicycling in nature reserve

Quell Reflect is a puzzle game to rack your brains while having fun
This is the sequel of Quell, with 8 new stages (24 extra levels). The order you play doesn't matter since this version is also including a tutorial. Actually, we played first Quell Reflect and thanks to it we discovered Quell.
This is a charm puzzle game with an original gameplay. The purpose is to slide a ball through the board to collect all the pearls in each level. The ball can be moved horizontally and vertically and it just stops when it finds a wall on its way. Collecting all the pearls with as few moves as possible will guarantee a high score. If you achieve it, you'll get a "Perfect". You can replay the level as many times as you want to improve your personal best until reaching the perfect.
We recommend you to play the tutorial stages made up by 4 levels to get the hang of it quickly. Then you'll be ready to play. There up to 24 regular levels, divided in 8 stages of three levels each. However, you'll see that new handicaps, items and skills will appear in each level. You can learn how it works by reading the headings at the bottom. There are lots of new items to make it even more challenging. What's more, there are over 35 achievements to unlock. If you get stuck in one level, you can use hints to get a clue on how to solve it. You'll gain hints depending on your performance in each level.
Graphics are simple and cute. The transitions between levels unveil that the game is backed by a hard-work on design. Soundtrack is also great. In a nutshell, what we got here is an original and challenging puzzle game well developed by FallenTreeGames. A must-have for puzzle lovers.
Quell Reflect is an enchanting game of logic which has taken the puzzle world by storm. Don't take our word for it! Read our user reviews (thanks guys!), and see for yourself!

I know the question of "do I have a dad" will be coming soon. An older friend of my daughter asked the question and I told her that she has a dad but he is to sick to be with her.
My situation is that I used to be a drug adict and never had a vet ry good relationship w/ her father because he's a loser. I left drugs behind and everybody that I knew including her father. My lo was born in rehab.
Any insight on what would be a good thing to say?
He knows about her and it's just too bad that I am to afraid to have anything to do with him for fear that he will take me to court about her. If I knew I had full control and could really protect my daughter things might be different, maybe she could meet him, exchange pictures but the courts could completely take control and that is just to scary to risk.
Thanks for any advice.
She spent first 3 months in rehab and has many pictures of that. It's not something I plan to try and hide.

Southern actress Trisha Krishnan is extremely happy that she survived extreme climatic conditions while shooting for upcoming Tamil romantic-drama "Endrendrum Punnagai" (EP) in Switzerland.
"And it's a wrap up for EP ('Endrendrum Punnagai') in Switzerland. Scorching sun, biting cold, rain and snow - endured it all," Trisha posted on her Twitter page.
She has been shooting with Jiiva and the rest of the crew in Switzerland since last week.
The film is directed by I. Ahmed and it also features Vinay Rai, Andrea Jeremiah, Nassar, Varsha Aswathi and Santhanam.
The team shot a breezy party number in Seychelles recently and also canned some important scenes in other exotic locations in Europe.
Produced by Tamil Kumaran and Ramadoss, "Endrendrum Punnagai" has music by Harris Jayaraj. The film is slated for summer release.
Meanwhile, Trisha is also busy shooting for Tamil movie "Boologam" and Telugu film "RUM".

Robert Downey Jr. and Wife Welcome Baby Boy
Sherlock Holmes star Robert Downey Jr. and his wife Susan have welcomed a son!
Exton Elias was born Tuesday morning in Los Angeles. People.com reports that the babe was 7 pounds, 5 ounces, and 20 inches long. Downey has an older son, Indio, 18, from a previous marriage.
According to People.com, Susan was a tad upset when Downey shared the sex of the baby on national television last summer.
"I could never really stay mad at him, but I can tell you it genuinely wasn't something we planned to reveal," she said. As a result, Downey says he was extra careful to keep his lips zipped about the couple's name pick before the baby arrived.

Another thing I've noticed is the fact for many people, less-than-perfect credit is the reaction to circumstances beyond their control. As an example they may be really saddled through an illness and as a consequence they have excessive bills going to collections. Maybe it's due to a job loss or even the inability to do the job. Sometimes divorce proceedings can truly send the finances in the wrong direction. Thanks for sharing your opinions on this website.

Man Has Nose Bitten Off In Fight Over Bruce Willis Film
Man Has Nose Bitten Off In Fight Over Bruce Willis Film
POSTED: 7:44 am EDT July 18, 2005
SYDNEY, Australia -- A movie fan had his nose bitten off outside an Australian cinema in an argument over the quality of the violent new Bruce Willis movie "Sin City," police said.
The 19-year-old victim underwent surgery to reattach the tip of his nose following the brawl Sunday night outside a movie theater in Bathurst, 125 miles west of Sydney.
Bathurst police Inspector Cameron Lindsay said the victim and his attacker got into a fight over the merits of the film, an adaptation of Frank Miller's graphic novel about a wicked metropolis filled with tough guys and gorgeous dames. The movie has been praised by critics for its dark, computer-generated imagery and criticized for its nonstop violence.
Police were still hunting for the attacker.
"There's been an argument, apparently over how good the movie was, and then an altercation," Lindsay said.
Clearly this was a great film, fun for the whole family!

If you're sitting at a screening of Sin City, do NOT tell the big ugly palooka in the long coat that "this sux"There's no choice but to confront you, to engage you, to erase you. I've gone to great lengths to expand my threshold of pain. I will use my mistakes against you. There's no other choice.

OFSAA qualifier
First-place finishers from Waterloo Region at Wednesday's OFSAA qualifying tournament.
Boys: Zach Berry, Waterloo-Oxford, 47.5kg; Sam Jagas, St. David, 51kg; Mitch Winchester, St. David, 54kg; Chance Mutuku, St. David, 64kg; Yemeri Mutuku, St. Mary's, 72kg; Norbert Giron, St. Mary's, 83kg; Dalton Bonneville, Monsignor Doyle, 89kg; James Tucker, Monsignor Doyle, 95kg.
Girls: Kayla Pereira, Monsignor Doyle, 57.5kg; Taylor Martin, Waterloo-Oxford, 64kg.
CAMBRIDGE — First the good news: Kayla Pereira is the first female from Monsignor Doyle Catholic Secondary School to qualify for the Ontario high school wrestling championship.
Now the bad news: She has knee surgery scheduled for Friday and won't be able to make it.
Pereira punched her ticket to next month's Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations wrestling championship in Guelph by winning the girls' 57.5-kilogram category at Wednesday's OFSAA qualifying tournament at St. Benedict Catholic Secondary School. The fifth-year student rebounded from a poor first round to pin Nicole Hare of Guelph's Our Lady of Lourdes in the gold-medal match of the tournament that was being hosted by the Central Western Ontario Secondary Schools Association.
"It feels just unreal . . . I was pumped . . . it was a great match and a rough fight and I'm just so happy to win," said Pereira.
She then turned her attention to Mustangs teammate Miranda Rebelo, who came up short in her gold-medal match in the 54kg division to Geese Lea Roberts of Lourdes and was then defeated by Maddison Braga of St. Benedict in a challenge match. As a result, Braga will move on to the OFSAA event that is slated for March 6-7 at Guelph's Sleeman Centre.
"Miranda did great. We both just wrecked it basically. . . . She had a tough loss at the end but she still wrecked it today and I'm so proud," she said.
Still, this is the end of the line for Pereira, who tore cartilage in her left knee while longboarding in the fall. The mixed martial arts enthusiast, who trains in Muay Thai and Brazilian ju-jitsu, said she would have had to wait another three months for surgery if she didn't have it Friday.
Wednesday's meet attracted 165 students from 17 schools, before scratches, which is down about 75 competitors from recent years. The ongoing labour dispute between the Ontario government and many public high school teachers led to the suspension of wrestling programs at a number of schools in the CWOSSA region. The top two-finishers in most weight categories advance to OFSAA.
Pereira and Rebelo were the only girls from Doyle at the OFSAA qualifier, the two holdovers from a team that was started in the fall by teacher Richard Remillard and now handled by principal Chris Woodcroft. Pereira recalls there being about a dozen girls coming out for practice at the beginning but the numbers declined until there was just two remaining.
Longtime teacher Chris Lowry, whose name is synonymous with Doyle wrestling, has led the Mustangs to 13 straight CWOSSA championships, but the squad has never had a female on its roster until this year.
"I just love to fight and the fact we finally have a girls wrestling team at Doyle is amazing," said Pereira. "This is my fifth year and I'm glad I got the chance to wrestle."
In other matches on Wednesday, reigning OFSAA champion Sam Jagas of St. David captured the boys 51kg category by pinfall, while Waterloo-Oxford wrestlers Zach Berry and Taylor Martin were also winners. They were accompanied to the meet by an outside coach and an educational assistant.
Final team standings were unavailable late Wednesday, although since this was not an official CWOSSA championship, it was unlikely the top school would have its name engraved on the championship plaque.

From outsiders to bombing suspects in Boston
The brothers emigrated in 2002 or 2003 from Dagestan, a Russian republic that has become an epicenter of the Islamic insurgency that spilled over from the region of Chechnya.
It's still not clear what investigators believe motivated Tamerlan and Dzhokhar to attack.
The brothers' uncle, Ruslan Tsarni, vehemently dismissed any suggestion that the bombings, which killed three and wounded at least 180, were motivated by religious views. He called the men "losers" who felt "hatred to those who were able to settle themselves."
"Anything else to do with religion, with Islam - it's a fraud, it's a fake," Tsarni told reporters. He said someone possibly "radicalized them, but not my brother who just moved back to Russia, who spent his life bringing bread to the table."
Tsarni also told reporters he hadn't spoken to his nephews in months.
One of the brothers' neighbors, Albrecht Ammon, recalled an encounter in which the older brother argued with him about U.S. foreign policy, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and religion.
Ammon said Tamerlan described the Bible as a "cheap copy" of the Quran, used to justify wars with other countries.
"He had nothing against the American people," Ammon told The Associated Press. "He had something against the American government."
Dzhokhar, on the other hand, was "real cool," Ammon said. "A chill guy."
The cases of homegrown and first-generation terror suspects in the U.S. are few, but the U.S. intelligence community has long been concerned about such potential attackers, particularly the threat posed by people like the Tsarnaev brothers who have no formal terror ties.
"And what makes them especially worrisome is that they're really difficult for us to detect and, therefore, to disrupt," Matt Olsen, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, said in June 2011 about homegrown violent extremists.
The U.S. intelligence director's office has declined to provide official government data on homegrown terrorists, or comment on the Tsarnaev brothers and the investigation into the bombings.
But an August 2011 White House policy paper on countering and preventing violent extremism in the U.S. said that while the numbers remain limited, "violent extremists prey on the disenchantment and alienation that discrimination creates, and they have a vested interest in anti-Muslim sentiment."
Kenneth Wainstein, who served as the White House homeland security adviser and a top Justice Department lawyer under President George W. Bush, said homegrown and newly immigrated militants develop their extreme views over time and are often borne out of sense of isolation. It's a problem that has not been as prevalent in the United States as in Europe, which has a larger number of ethnic and nationalist divisions.
"But I think we have seen, over the last few years, some pretty clear and sobering examples of people inspired by overseas terror groups and terror propaganda," Wainstein said Friday, before Dzhokhar was captured. "They fit more in the category of where you have people who are radicalized here without any apparent connection overseas. A kid can go into his room get radicalized on the Internet without direct connect with anyone overseas, or even without going down the street to the radical preacher. That makes it very hard to detect that person, and poses a significant problem for the intelligence community and law enforcement."

NOAA Satellites Rescue Hundreds in 2010
Satellites - operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration - were critical last year in the rescue of hundreds of people from life-threatening situations throughout the U.S. and its surrounding waters. The satellites picked up distress signals from emergency beacons carried by downed pilots, shipwrecked boaters and stranded hikers - relaying information about their location to first responders on the ground. Officials say - of the 295 people saved - 180 people were rescued from water, 43 from aviation incidents, and 72 who were lost on land. NOAA's polar-orbiting and geostationary satellites, along with Russia's COSPAS spacecraft, are part of the international Search and Rescue Satellite Aided Tracking system. It uses a network of satellites to quickly detect and locate distress signals broadcast by emergency beacons. Alaska had the most people rescued last year with 77, followed by Florida with 37.

EPA allows use of E15 in most modern passenger vehicles
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has waived its earlier limitation on selling gasoline that contains more than 10 percent ethanol for model year 2001 through 2006 passenger vehicles, including cars, SUVs, and light pickup trucks. The waiver applies to fuel that contains up to 15 percent ethanol - known as E15. EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson says recently completed testing by the Department of Energy shows E15 does not harm emissions control equipment in the vehicles. The National Farmers Union says the decision means E15 will soon be available for approximately 60 percent of all vehicles in the U.S. The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 mandated an increase in the overall amount of renewable fuels - like ethanol - into the marketplace. Several trade groups claim that more research is need to determine how increased ethanol levels could affect vehicles.

NSA Launches New Digital Recruiting Tools
The National Security Agency has launched two new digital communications efforts. Both are designed to educate prospective employees on career opportunities with NSA. It's part of an overall push to recruit workers to support NSA's cyber security initiatives. NSA officials anticipate this year will see the agency's largest hiring effort of cybersecurity workers to date. They've targeted communications tools they hope will appeal to today's tech-savvy generation. The NSA Career Links Smartphone application is available for download through the iTunes platform. Career Links delivers real-time job updates directly to a user's iPhone. This includes information about available jobs, career fairs, and Agency news. NSA is also employing Smartphone tagging on many of its printed recruitment advertisements. Users with Smartphones equipped with Android or other operating systems can scan the tags and launch a video related to the ad.

New Fiber-Optic Cables Offer Upgrade for Warplanes
Military aircraft are typically burdened with miles of heavily shielded copper wire cables that connect many types of components. The cabling is often heavy, yet fragile, subject to deterioration, as well as expensive. More modern aircraft employ multimode digital fiber-optic cables. A network program created by DARPA - the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency - aims to replace current aircraft wiring with a single-mode fiber-optic network, where each fiber can carry multiple digital and analog signals. The program will develop prototype photonic transmitters and receivers - and will support advanced electronic warfare, radar and communications systems. Such systems have the potential to save the Defense Department billions of dollars over the lifecycle of an aircraft fleet. Prototype digital transmitters are designed to support tuning over 32 wavelength channels, each carrying 10 gigabit-per-second data rates.

IRS Expands E-File Program
The Internal Revenue Service has opened its 21st season of electronic filing. The agency has sent reminders to taxpayers saying e-file remains the best way to get fast refunds and ensure accurate tax returns, particularly following several changes in the tax law. A number of tax deductions and credits for were extended for 2011 and 2012. To date, the IRS says it's processed over one-billion returns through e-files. In 2010, nearly 100 million people - or 70-percent of taxpayers - used IRS e-file. IRS commissioners anticipate that more tax return preparers will be using e-file this year. They anticipate starting to process tax returns impacted by December's tax law changes by mid-February. Even with the delay, the IRS says e-file remains the fastest option. It will take less than two weeks to process an e-filed return, but as many as four to six weeks to process a paper return.

Bio-based Polymers Heal Themselves
An Iowa State University associate professor and associate of the Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory has been working with polymers that repair themselves when they crack. He's worked with polymers made from vegetable oils. Now - he's working to combine the two technologies. Michael Kessler is researching and developing biorenewable polymers that are capable of healing themselves as they degrade and crack. He says - if successful, the research will provide biorenewable alternatives to petroleum-based resins, which he says could have a huge economic and environmental impacts. The technology has evolved into a system that embeds catalysts and microcapsules containing a liquid healing agent inside the polymer. As cracks develop, they rupture the microcapsules and release the healing agent.

NASA Mission Discovers First Rocky Planet
NASA's Kepler mission has confirmed the discovery of its first rocky planet, named Kepler-10-b. It's 1-point-four times the size of Earth, making it the smallest planet ever discovered outside our solar system. Team leaders at NASA'a Ames Research Center in California say it's also the first solid evidence of a rocky planet orbiting a star other than our sun. The size of the exoplanet can be derived from periodic dips in brightness. Kepler's ultra-precise photometer measures the tiny decrease in a star's brightness that happen when a planet crosses in front of it. The distance between the planet and the star is calculated by measuring the time between successive dips as the planet orbits the star. As a result of the analysis, that star orbited by the planet - Kepler-10 - is now one of the most well-characterized planet-hosting stars in the universe.

Genome Sequencing Produces Finer, Healthier Chocolate
The production of high quality chocolate, and the farmers who grow it, will benefit from the recent sequencing and assembly of the chocolate tree genome. An international team, including scientists from the National Science Foundation, sequenced the DNA of a variety of Theobroma cocoa, considered to produce the world's finest chocolate. Many growers currently prefer to grow hybrid cocoa trees that produce chocolate of lower quality more resistant to disease. Increasing the productivity and ease of growing cacao can help to develop more sustainable economies. Other genes were found that influence the production of flavonoids, natural antioxidants, hormones, pigments and aromas. Altering the genes for these chemicals might produce chocolate with better flavors, aromas and even healthier chocolate.

FCC Examines Services Offered by Travelers Info Stations
The Federal Communications Commission is asking the public to weigh in on a plan to expand the services offered by travelers information radio stations. The stations now typically broadcast traffic information - often near airports or major interchanges - and typically at the high end of the AM band. The FCC wants to expand what the stations broadcast to include weather reports, Amber alerts, and public health warnings. The stations would also get a power boost under the FCC proposal. Many of the stations operate on solar-power or have battery back-up power systems that enable them to continue to provide broadcast information to travelers regionally during significant power outages.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Hotel Tomo
1800 Sutter St, San Francisco, CA, USA
Neighborhood: Japantown
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Recycling is great for household goods but as it turns out it's even better for hotels. Formerly the Best Western Miyako Inn, the Tomo is part of America's great surplus of cheap-but-uninspired mid-century budget hotels, re-designed and re-purposed into a boutique hotel that takes its style cues from contemporary Japanese pop culture.
That "Best Western" isn't still in the name as some kind of ironic joke — the Tomo, oddly, is a partnership between the venerable cheap-motel chain and Joie de Vivre, the hip and homegrown San Francisco boutique hotel group. And if the words Best Western still put you in mind of floral bedspreads and Gideons bibles, you'll be quickly disabused by one look inside this place.
It's not just the crisp lines and bright futuristic furnishings; it's the murals on the walls, the video installations in the lobby, the iPod docks and LCD televisions in the rooms, and in the "gaming suites," the PlayStation 3s and Nintendo Wiis. There's a vending machine in the lobby selling t-shirts and toys from Giant Robot, and the shop itself is just blocks away — you're in the heart of San Francisco's Japantown. What there isn't is anything that could rightly be described as luxury; this is still a Best Western, after all, but pretty much anything you'd need is close at hand, from a wealth of restaurants (Japanese and otherwise) to the Kabuki Springs & Spa.

What the hotel could do better:
Nothing, had a wonderful stay!

– Net Loss of $0.66 Per Share as Housing-Related Recovery Slows Down –
– Specialty Revenue Growth Reported in Fourth Quarter –
ATLANTA, Feb. 17, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BlueLinx Holdings Inc. (NYSE:BXC), a leading distributor of building products in North America, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 1, 2011.Revenues increased 0.5% to $367.9 million from $366.1 million for the same period a year ago. The increase reflects a 7.4% increase in specialty product sales and a 9.5% decrease in structural product sales. Overall unit volume declined 4.3%, with a 5.9% increase in specialty unit volume being offset by a 16.5% decline in structural unit volume. The Company incurred a net loss of $20.2 million, or $0.66 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with net income of $12.0 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2009 which included a tax benefit of $23.6 million or $0.72 per diluted share. Gross profit for the fourth quarter totaled $44.3 million, down 2.1% from $45.3 million in the prior-year period. Gross margins decreased to 12.1% from the near record level of 12.4% generated in the year earlier period. The decline in overall gross margin was driven by a 0.6% decline in specialty gross margins largely resulting from shifts in channel mix. Total operating expenses increased to $56.5 million from $50.1 million a year ago, largely driven by a $6.0 million gain on a property sale realized in the year ago period. Reported operating loss for the quarter was $12.2 million, compared with an operating loss of $4.8 million a year ago. "BlueLinx' fourth-quarter operational performance was impacted by the continuing difficult conditions of the housing and construction markets as the recovery slowed down and we experienced the normal seasonal slow down associated with our fourth quarter," said BlueLinx President and CEO George Judd. "In the face of this challenging operating environment our financial results demonstrate modest revenue growth, strong gross margin performance, and diligent cost management. We generated approximately $18 million in cash from operations during the quarter.
