Golf: Honest Jerome Ng still wins by 2
Singaporean penalizes self
For Jerome Ng, it was a case of double happiness.
After calling a penalty on himself for an infraction he wasn't sure he committed, Ng played the rest of the final round of the MVP Sports Foundation Philippine Amateur Open golf championship guilt-free and was rewarded with a two-shot victory.
The athletically-fit 24-year-old fired a 3-over-par 75 at Wack Wack's East layout even after a two-shot penalty he slapped on himself for a greenside bunker violation on the 13th hole he wasn't even sure he committed.
Ng finished with a 300 total over the difficult tree-lined layout where no player in the centerpiece men's event that was the kickoff leg of the PLDT Group National Amateur Tour managed to break par in any round.
"Yes, I would have penalized myself even if it was the 18th hole and even if I was leading by just one," Ng, who allowed Filipino wonder Rupert Zaragosa to tie for the lead at that point, said.
'Losing in an honest way'
"I felt I touched the sand in my practice swing," he continued. "Though I am not sure, I still penalized myself. I wouldn't have been happy if I committed a violation and did nothing about it.
"I wouldn't have mind losing in an honest way, rather than winning and knowing at the back of my mind that I did something wrong."
It was the first national title anywhere for Ng as he bounced back from a double bogey 7 on the 13th hole with the last of his three birdies on the 14th before shooting pars the rest of the way.
Zaragosa, the pint-sized 15-year-old, closed out with a similar 75 then lost in the countback to Muhammad Razif of Malaysia, who shot a 72, and Korean expat Jong Sang-in, who fired a 73, for second and third, respectively.
"There's always next year," Zaragosa told the Inquirer. "It's OK, the good thing about it is that I gave it my best. I just fell short."
This marked the third straight year that a foreigner won the PH Am and the second consecutive year that a bet from Singapore triumphed. Gregory Foo, born to a Filipino mother, ruled the event last year at Canlubang North.
Meanwhile, Dottie Ardina capped her domination of the women's side of the event with a 73 for a 54-hole 215 total and an eight-shot win over Mia Legaspi, who fired a 74.
Princess Superal carded a 76 for 229 to clinch third place in the event also backed by Pancake House, Titleist, Golf Depot, Pacsports and Autohub as the official transport provider.
Andres Saldana pooled a 78 and was fifth at 307, with Jik-Jik Abdon firing a 74 to forge a sixth-place tie with Jobim Carlos, who submitted a 75.
The final scores (Filipino unless stated):
Men's: 300—J. Ng (Sin) 78-73-74-75; 302—M. Razif (Mal) 76-76-78-72, JS-In (Kor) 73-75-81-73, R. Zaragosa 73-74-80-75; 307—A. Saldaña 76-78-75-78; 306 – J. Abdon 79-75-80-74, J.

HMRC has publishes a brief in response to the CJEU decision in Skandia (which said VAT should be charged on supplies from a US company to its Swedish branch).

European VAT ruling may hit banks and insurance companies
The European Court of Justice (CJEU) has announced its decision in a VAT case which may lead to significant extra VAT costs where a headquarters supplies cross-border services to an EU branch, particularly in the banking and insurance sector.

Bridging The Atlantic – Common pitfalls for US businesses in relation to VAT
This article is a guide for US businesses in relation to VAT issues in the UK.
In essence, value added tax ("VAT") is a tax on personal consumption or use of goods and services. Businesses charge VAT when supplying their goods or services to individuals who bear the cost of the VAT charge; thus these individuals are taxed on their consumption of those goods and services as measured by their expenditure. The business, having collected the VAT from the customer, will then pay that VAT over to the tax authority.

PLC Public Sector blog: "Tax avoiders" to lose out on government contracts
In the 2012 Autumn Statement, the Chancellor of the Exchequer confirmed plans (first announced in September 2012) to use of the public procurement process to deter tax avoidance and evasion. A discussion document and draft guidance for consultation followed in February 2013 and on 20 March 2013, in the 2013 Budget report, the government confirmed that the new policy would be introduced from 1 April 2013.

The far-reaching proposals are open for an unreasonably short consultation period ending 28 February.

Heat cramps occur in muscles during or after exercise because
sweating causes the body to lose water, salt, and other minerals
(electrolytes). Leg muscles, such as the calf or thigh muscles, are usually
affected most, but abdominal muscle cramps can also occur.
Signs of heat cramps include:
cramps may start during the activity or up to several hours after exercise that
caused heavy sweating, and they may last for several minutes. The skin is moist
and cool, and the muscles are tender. Muscle twitching may occur. Fatigue,
nausea, and vomiting are also common with heat cramps.
Drinking plenty of water before, during, and after activity can prevent heat cramps.
This is very important when it's hot out and during intense exercise.
Sports drinks are absorbed as quickly as water but also replace sugar, sodium,
and other nutrients. People who are hydrated and
acclimate to hot environments are less likely to
experience heat cramps.
Salt tablets should not be used. They are absorbed slowly and can cause irritation of the stomach.
Salt tablets do not replace water loss.

Stacy Lewis 1 back after first round of ShopRite
Blumenherst, who is married to Oakland Athletics first baseman Nate Freiman, has missed cuts in six of eight events. The former Duke star has never finished better than a tie for fifth since joining the tour in 2010 after winning at qualifying school.
"It feels amazing," said Blumenherst, who had an eagle, four birdies and a bogey. "It's been a while since I've had a very solid round of golf and felt like I just played well throughout the entire day. It was a lot of fun out there because it's been a challenging start to the season."
Jutanugarn, whose 17-year-old sister, Ariya, was the halfway leader at Kingsmill in Virginia this month, has missed the cut in two of her last four events after getting off to a quick start. The 18-year-old Jutanugarn, from Thailand, made two of her six birdies on her first two holes. She had one bogey.
The Bay Course at the Stockton Seaview Hotel and Golf Club was the big winner. Only 18 of the 143 players who finished, including just five in the afternoon round, broke par on the 6,155-yard course that played tougher because of wind and bumpy greens.
Beatriz Recari of Spain and Hee Young Park headed a group at 2 under after posting the best rounds of the players who teed off in the afternoon. Park's South Korean countrywomen, Cella Choi, played her first eight holes in 5 under, but gave four shots back as the afternoon wore on and finished at 1 under.
Many of the tour's leading players struggled with the wind coming off Reed's Bay and the tough greens, which are bumpy because the recent cold weather has helped the poa annua thrive.
World No. 1 Inbee Park was in a group at 74 along with Paula Creamer and Na Yeon Choi. Third-ranked Suzann Pettersen had a 76. Among the other notables, Jiyai Shin had a 71, Lizette Salas and I.K. Kim shot 72, and Cristie Kerr had a 73.

iWatch reportedly set to debut in September
August 27, 2014
Apple's iWatch has been the longest-rumored product since ... well, probably since that fabled iTV that never materialized. But it looks like the Apple wearable is going to become official – very soon.
According to a report from Re/Code, Apple is set to announce its wearable device at its upcoming iPhone event in September. Though invites haven't gone out yet, the same publication previously reported that the event would happen on September 9.
Even if the device debuts in September, that doesn't necessarily mean that it will ship soon after. Apple has historically given its new products time to percolate in the public consciousness before hitting store shelves. For example, Steve Jobs previewed the original iPhone in January of 2007, but it didn't ship until late June. The first iPad debuted in late January of 2010 and shipped in early April.
Though long ago christened by the press as the "iWatch," there hasn't been any official confirmation on what the wrist-worn device will be called. The scuttlebutt has been consistent, though, on the fact that the wearable will have a heavy focus on health and fitness. Re/Code reiterated this by mentioning that the device will integrate with both HealthKit, Apple's fitness platform set to debut in iOS 8, and HomeKit. The latter is devoted more to home-connected devices, also known as the internet of things.
Smartwatches, including Android Wear, have yet to make the mainstream splash that OEMs have been hoping for. But, if past is prologue, an Apple wearable could be just the catalyst that the product category needs to take off.
Source: Re/Code
don't worry , wehn it bombs and no one buys it, apple has enough money to just buy it with stealth buyers and give enough away so it doesn't look like a total fiasco like google glass.
GO APPLE!zevulon
I am looking for a bit deeper thought than what went into past "smart watch" designs.
In order for me to want it, it has to either [A] do a lot of what my phone does already (WITHOUT needing to be connected to a phone), or [B] do things that actually augment my phone.
And by "augment", I mean doing something other than giving me notifications and the like that my phone gives me anyway. I mean doing MORE.
I expect that in part it will be a fitness gadget, which is fine. But if so, it had better connect to real computers, not just phones.Anne Ominous
anne smart watches along with nearly all 'wearables' out there are a complete commercial failure . Nike , with massively deep pockets kept putting money into this segment for years, until they realized it's simply a money pit.
the 'smart' everything movement is kept alive only on the back of cheap money , fast money, and low interest rates.
perhaps 1% of 'smart' device ideas are viable, meaning that there is a commercial reason for their success in the market place ( such a smart wearable medical monitoring system replacing a tethered system ) or, there has to be some very compelling reason to the consumer to buy one ( mothers obsessively tracking their children ).
about 5 years of marketplace history now shows us that the overwhelming majority of these devices , over 95% of them, are not only useless nonsense no one will buy and thus, unprofitable, but that the big companies with endless pockets that make these devices are usually unable to admit failure and change direction.
google glass is a particularly good example of this. Unlike lookcie and other somewhat similarly situated companies, glass has enough google backing to burn cash for decades....which changes the narrative from closing the product down and declaring bankruptcy to.......persistence!zevulon
My personal opinion is that Google Wear devices will be the most useful. Its less to do with the device but more with the backend systems it interfaces with and Google Now just has such a leg up.
The Moto 360 is the one to beat.Rann Xeroxx
All this negative yammering about smart watches reminds me of the same talk about beepers for the masses. "Nobody needs a beeper, unless you are a doctor or someone important like that." Beepers eventually caught on and then took off against all of the negativity.
A similar rant went on about the early cell phones, long before texting and display screens actually transformed the cell phone into basically a portable computer.
Smart watches will quickly find their way because, (just like the cell phone did) they will serve as something more than just what we see them being used for right now.Mark Keller
This fad will wear out quickly. What would make it useful would be using body movements to charge it, fast computing power, speech program that actually works,Bluetooth or some type of wireless communication with the internet and Google Glasses for a display or something like them with better performance. Make a useful in the real world, wearable high performance computer with a phone feature so we could throw away our cell phones for something way better.Cyndysub

Brian Landsberger
|Brian Landsberger
|Candidate for
|U.S. House, Nevada, District 1
|U.S. Air Force Academy
|University of Texas, Austin
|Campaign website
Brian Landsberger served 20 years as a pilot in the U.S. Air Force. After obtaining his Bachelor of Arts from the U.S. Air Force Academy, Landsberger went on to earn an M.S. at MIT and a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin.[1] In 2004, he received a research position at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where he remained until 2011. He is now the manager of Las Vegas Innovative Product Design.[2]
Campaign themes
On his campaign website, Landsberger listed several issues that were designed to help readers obtain an "informed picture of the core beliefs of him" in spite of the fact that the list is not complete. The issues listed:[3]
- Grow the Economy
- Landsberger states, "The federal government can promote innovation through sponsoring research and creating a regulatory environment that does not hinder startup or growing companies. At the same time, the government should not pick winners and losers by allocating free money to certain favored companies."
- Taxes
- Landsberger says that his goal is to, "Revise the tax code to achieve the vision through the goals below in a manner that is transparent, minimally disruptive and allows for long range personal and business planning."
- Federal Debt and Budget Deficit
- Landsberger states, "The government should maintain a sound fiscal policy that generates a surplus during normal economic times that can then be used during difficult economic times. Currently, the federal government engages in unsustainable spending that is dangerous for our future, even in these trying economic times."
- Social Security
- Landsberger has a 5-point plan to fix Social Security: "Congress should take action to maintain the perpetual fiscal viability of the program. The goals should include: (1) Maintain the independent funding, separate form general revenues, (2) Provide benefits that are sufficient for the recipients and consistent with funds available, (3) Obtain the best possible rate of return consistent with risk for the trust fund. (4) Ensure that through fiscal responsibility, the federal government can repay the money borrowed from the Social Security Trust Fund. (5) Scrutinize benefit payouts, in particular disability benefits, to expedite legitimate claims, eliminate unjustified claims, and adjust payouts amount and duration to encourage the worker to return to suitable employment."
- Home Value and Foreclosure Crisis
- Two actions are required to remedy the weakness in the housing market, according to Landsberger: "To set the course for recovery, we present two specific goals: 1) By natural market means, drastically reduce the number of homes going into foreclosure. 2) By eliminating the government imposed barriers to home financing, increase the buyer pool and thus start a recovery of house prices."
Landsberger ran in the 2012 election for the U.S. House to represent Nevada's 1st District. He lost to Chris Edwards in the Republican primary on June 12, 2012.[4][5]

Oy vey! Yiddish making a comeback at colleges
ATLANTA A group of American college students stands in a semicircle, clapping and hopping on one foot as they sing in Yiddish: "Az der rebe tantst, tantsn ale khsidim!"
In English, the lyrics mean: "When the rebbe dances, so do all the Hasidim."
This isn't music appreciation or even a class at a synagogue. It's the first semester of Yiddish at Emory University in Atlanta - one of just a handful of college programs across the country studying the Germanic-based language of Eastern European Jews.
The language came close to dying out after the Holocaust as millions of Yiddish speakers either perished in Nazi concentration camps or fled to other countries where their native tongue was not welcome. Emory and other universities like Johns Hopkins in Baltimore and McGill University in Canada are working to bring the language back, and with it, an appreciation for the rich history of European Jewish culture and art.
"If we want to preserve this, we need to do so actively and consciously," said Miriam Udel, a Yiddish professor at Emory who uses song to teach the language. "The generation that passively knows Yiddish is dying out. There are treasures that need to be preserved because we'll lose access to them if we let Yiddish die."
Experts estimate there are between 1 million and 2 million native Yiddish speakers in the world, but only about 500,000 speak it in the home - mostly orthodox Jews. When YIVO Institute for Jewish Research in New York City began offering summer programs in Yiddish in 1968, they were the only such program in the world.
Now, they compete with summer intensive Yiddish programs in Tel Aviv, Israel; Ottawa, Canada; Indiana and Arizona, said YIVO's dean, Paul Glasser. About 20 colleges and universities in the U.S. and Canada now offer some Yiddish courses, though just a few of them have degrees in the language.
The interest has grown because of the younger Jewish generation, which doesn't feel their parents' embarrassment that their family spoke Yiddish rather than English, Glasser said.
"Eighteen-year-olds today don't have that," he said. "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. No one can question their American-ness."
Emory student Matthew Birnbaum, a junior, said he took Udel's Yiddish class because he feels a personal connection to the language - his grandparents still speak it.
"It's taught me a lot about my own roots and where my people have come from," he said. "It's been a really interesting learning experience, not just from the language perspective but also from the historical perspective."
It's not just college classes where the interest in Yiddish has grown.
Klezmer music has made a comeback with young musicians like Canadian Yiddish hip-hop artist Socalled - whose real name is Josh Dolgin - and Daniel Kahn, a New York-based folk singer who is recording with some of the most popular Yiddish performers in the world.
At the Folksbiene national Yiddish theater and the New Yiddish Rep theater company, both in New York City, young actors flood auditions for "Gimpl Tam" and "The Learning Play of Rabbi Levi-Yitzhok, Son of Sara, of Berditchev." The Congress for Jewish Culture holds coffee houses monthly where young Yiddish musicians perform and bring in guest speakers like graphic novel artist Ben Katchor, hoping to appeal to a younger audience.

'Dysfunction' in Congress led to FAA furloughs
Thursday - 8/4/2011, 9:29am EDT
By Jack Moore
Federal News Radio
The FAA remains in a state of partial shutdown: Some 4,000 employees have been furloughed, more than 200 airport construction projects have been put on hold and about 70,000 other private-sectors workers have been laid off.
Meanwhile, Congress remains deadlocked over a provision in the FAA bill providing subsidies for rural airports, Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) said.
However, he told the Federal Drive earlier this week that he doesn't support a bill to provide back-pay for furloughed workers.
"When people aren't working, they're not producing," Coburn said. "I agree: it's not (the FAA employees') fault. But the fact is, is that they didn't produce anything of value. And I don't think we should reward that."
The situation is "unfortunate," Coburn acknowledged. "But what it shows is the dysfunction of Congress. We have our priorities all messed up."
The senator also discussed a recent legislative push to put federal agency reports online in an easy-to-search format.
According to the bill, which Coburn has co-sponsored, the Government Printing Office would launch and maintain an website that would publish electronic copies of all agency reports required by Congress.
The senator said the idea is to give the public the same information provided to lawmakers.

There seem to be lots of comments about CdP's relatively slow pace. I can't help but think of an interview I heard with Rick Mears (multiple Indy 500 winner) when he talked about managing risk in a long race.
He would basically half-life the entire race. For the first half he would only push as much as necessary to maintain within reach of the leaders (IIRC, he only wanted to be on the lead lap).
The second half was broken into quarters. The first quarter he would push hard enough to high up on the board (say 10th).
The second quarter was broken into eighths. The first eighth he would push harder, and begin taking more risks to get onto the podium. If he found himself in 1st by the end of the that eighth, he would then manage his lead.
If still behind, the final eighth was divided into sixteenths, and he would increase his pace again. Begin taking more risk. If at the end of that he was still not in the lead he would start pushing flat out, maxiumum attack.
Mears' whole point of this is that racing is about managing risk to the exent that it can be managed. Pushing hard from the start to the finish is simply not possible -and he was only talking about 500 miles on pavement, or 1000 in Baja - nothing near the race distance of Dakar. You cannot take those kinds of risks for the entire race and reasonably expect to make it to the finish line. Think of it as the anit-Robby strategy. Gordon is kind of known for having great speed, but breaking his toys, or crashing, or both. It seems from the outside that Robbie is pushing too hard for too long and the law of averages bites him.
So why on Earth would CdP do anything to risk his rallye so early on? He's within touch of his challengers. He can pull the cork seemingly at will and clip 10 minutes off the entire field except Coma (who's out). There's simply no upside for Cyril to run maximum attack at this point.
We will probably not start to see Cyril take big bites out of people until after the rest day.

Asics Tennis Racquets

I have been playing with the Asics 116 for two months now and can tell you a lot about it and to a much lesser extent the 125. I have never tried the 109 and in fact never seen anyone around here using it.
For some background, I am an older 4.0 player that plays about 2 1/2 hours a day. Prior to switching to the Asics 116, I was using the newest version of the Prince EX03 Red.
First the 125 - I tried it once and it, like most oversized rackets, appears to be designed for someone that doesn't swing very hard and wants additional power. Around here, at least, that is mostly women and older players. I have never liked oversize rackets so it didn't appeal to me. I felt that I had less control and found it slower to quickly position the racket for a volley or a shot that I had to scramble to get. Still, the players that traditionally use oversize rackets seem to like it a lot. Note: you CANNOT string the 125 with a 40 foot string.
By the way, these are brand new rackets designed from the ground up, not a repaint on an old Head racket as suggested earlier.
Now on to the 116. First, in spite of the 116 measurement it is actually not an oversized racket in the traditional sense. It is effectively a mid-plus racket, like the Prince EX03 Read 105 I was using before. If you put the 116 on top of the Prince 105, the head size is almost the same. The additional overall size is just that the the head is elongated.
The 116 has noticeably more power than the 105 but no less control. It has a very low swing weight which is very close to the Prince 105, which made for a very easy transition. Because of its very low overall weight I can quickly position it for a fast volley return or scrambling after a wide serve or shot. My serve is definitely faster as well. In spite of the stiffness of the frame I have not had any elbow problems with the racket, even though I am prone to this with some rackets I have used in the past (not the Prince rackets which seem to be very easy on the elbow).
By the way, this is a very easy racket to string (I string my own rackets), especially compared to the Prince rackets with the large side holes!
My wife, who is a 4.0 to 4.5 level player is also switching to the 116 as soon as they are in stock. I think the chart referenced earlier in this thread is essentially correct about the NTRP level for the 116: 3.0 to 4.5.
Thank you for this information. There has apparently been some type of hiccup in Asics' roll-out of these racquets since it has been months since their press releases first began appearing and nothing since.
Any feedback on the 109? And regarding the 116, how is the comfort level -- especially when taking a fuller cut? All three racquets are rated "stiff" as is generally the norm for these type of racquets, but I am curious how this plays out in the real world.
Thanks again for great info.

I started playing trumpet in grade school and was in the marching band the first year of high school. I then switched to playing upright bass in the orchestra. This led to me being a part of the jazz band and playing instrumentals for school musicals. Upon graduation time, I received the gold medal for music performance in strings. I was also an AP music theory student. After, I pursued a bachelor's degree in music and took education courses. I have tutored music theory and given instrument lessons, but they were always self employed or from the university. I wish to help others make music an enjoying part of their lives, as it is in mine. *** Lesson Details *** For lessons, I like to get a feel of the student's current abilities and then start from there.

Using your favorite bass lines, we will explore music theory on the bass. Learn to create your own bass part for songs. Be able to demonstrate proper technique and tonal production on the instrument. Learn musical vocabulary and alternate techniques necessary to perform songs on the bass.
Michael C. was eleven years old when he began to play the electric bass guitar. He decided to get an electric bass because it was the one instrument needed to start a band among his friends. In addition to playing the electric bass, Michael enjoyed time practicing on the guitar and piano in high school. Transferring the knowledge and finger technique to the guitar came easy because of the similarities between guitar and the bass. And growing up with an upright piano in the house always lead to tinkering and eventually became a proficiency after college. In 1996 Michael enrolled at the the Philadelphia University of the Arts. He was awarded a presidential merit scholarship and a university grant based on his entrance audition. During his studies Michael was recruited for a student ...
My name is Rob M. and I am professional cellist and string specialist. I hold a Bachelor of Music Education from DePauw University (2010). I am a certified K-12 instrumental/general music teacher in the state of Virginia and Washington D.C. I am currently attending Temple University for a Masters of Music in String Pedagogy. I recently left my string music private studio (20-25 students with Music and Arts) in the Washington D.C. area and I am looking to offer my expertise and experience through takelessons.com. I look forward to working with you and making a great musical learning experience!
As well as teaching, I have had a lot of experience aiding and tutoring my fellow bass majors in college. Hand technique on upright is important as well as getting a good ear. I plan to focus on these aspects while incorporating tunes and pieces according to the students style and ability.
I am a soon to be graduate of Rowan University, studying bass with a Jazz Studies degree. I have been playing and studying music for 16 years starting with piano at the age of 8. In the 4th grade I picked up clarinet for the school band and played that until graduating from high school. When I was 12 I switched from piano to electric bass and have been playing it ever since in various styles from rock to jazz to classical and so on. After graduating high school I started learning upright bass in college. I started teaching friends various instruments and general music theory as a freshman. After performing my senior recital at Rowan University I will officially be done with schooling and devote myself fully into playing and teaching music.

Malaysian envoy echoes PH wish for peaceful end to Sabah conflict
More News from Tarra Quismundo
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
MANILA, Philippines — Malaysian Ambassador to the Philippines Dato Mohd Zamri Mohd Kasim reciprocated on Monday, the Philippines' wishes for a peaceful resolution to the fighting between Malaysian forces and the Sulu Royal Army in Sabah, Vice President Jejomar Binay said.
The envoy, who visited Binay Monday afternoon, also confirmed that Philippine consular officials were finally allowed to visit Filipinos detained by Malaysian authorities for alleged involvement in the standoff.
"He told me that it is also their wish that there will be a peaceful resolution and said that our consular officials were already able to visit those detained," Binay told reporters late afternoon on Monday.
Malaysia had initially refused to grant Philippine officials visitation rights to detained Filipinos citing the security situation on the ground. The Philippines reiterated this request last week through the Philippine Embassy in Kuala Lumpur.
Binay said he discussed the Sabah situation only briefly with Kasim during the latter's courtesy call at the Vice President's residence, the Coconut Palace.
As part of his prayers this Holy Week, Binay hoped for a peaceful resolution to the Sabah conflict.
"I hope it will be resolved because lives are at stake. I hope that peace will be achieved in Mindanao," Binay told reporters.

Six days of fighting in a Damascus suburb has killed more than a hundred people and possibly many more, activists said on Monday, in what the government also acknowledged may be a dramatic spike in the rising death toll in Syria.
President Bashar al-Assad's forces pressed on with a major offensive against rebels closing in on parts of the Syrian capital, while government troops moved to encircle the contested town of al-Qusayr.
The precise number of those killed in the latest fighting in the Jdaidet Artouz and Jdaidet al-Fadel districts — the suburbs, around 15 km southwest of Damascus — could not be immediately confirmed.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the death toll, mostly due to shelling, could be as high as 250.
The Local Coordination Committees, another activist group, put the death toll at 483.
It said most of the victims were killed in Jdaidet Artouz. State-run news agency SANA said Syrian troops had "inflicted heavy losses" on the rebels.
A government official in Damascus told The Associated Press that rebels were behind the "massacre" in Jdaidet al-Fadel.
The army also pressed on with its offensive near the Lebanese border, a strategic region because it links Damascus with the Mediterranean coastal enclave that is the heartland of Mr. Assad's Alawi sect, an offshoot of Shia Islam.

Following the Breadcrumbs
Rabbinical reasoning behind our pre-Passover search for hametz leads Jews through a theological maze, but everything is illuminated at the end
People sometimes tell you that Judaism is a utilitarian religion. Having to throw out all your food and scour your home before Passover according to the laws of bedikat hametz—the search for leaven—may be tiresome, but it yields the greatest good for the greatest number.
This turns Judaism into a sound public policy, but a dry, dull religion. So, it's important to remember that the sages of old weren't health officials. When they directed us to remove every trace of fermentable dough from our homes the night before Passover, they weren't thinking about sanitation. To clean, you need ample light, but the Talmud tells us to search at night with no more than a candle ("On the evening of the fourteenth, we search for hametz by the light of a candle"). And that's both inefficient and odd. Jews in the Greco-Roman world had perfectly good torches.
So, why do we search for hametz? The rabbis wondered, too: "From where is this law derived?" Hametz is banned on Passover, but there's no biblical commandment to go looking for it. No character in the Torah ever conducts such a search. The whole thing just never comes up.
It's worth figuring out how the rabbis answered this question, because thinking about ritual was as close as they came to doing philosophy. They didn't propound arguments like Western philosophers, though. They meandered through the Bible like mad metaphysical poets. The discussion of bedikat hametz weaves together four apparently random biblical verses.
The first one is from Exodus: "No leaven shall be found in your houses for seven days" (Exodus 12:19). The rabbis ask: What does it mean for leaven not to be found? It means that first it must have been sought, then it would have been found and removed. Why give the absence of something so much back story? The rabbis don't give the obvious answer, which is that if we keep hametz in our homes the rest of the year, than we have to get rid of it before Passover. Instead, they cite the Joseph story. We seek before we find, they say, because that's how Joseph's steward went about it: "He searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest, and he found the goblet in Benjamin's bag" (Genesis 44:12).
You're supposed to know the context. Years after Joseph's brothers sold him into slavery, his brothers had to go get food in Egypt, where Joseph had become grand vizier, though they didn't know that. When they entered the palace court, he recognized them but they didn't recognize him. A grim comedy ensued in which he made incomprehensible demands, including that they bring him his younger brother, Benjamin. They did, whereupon Joseph framed the boy by having his steward put his silver goblet into Benjamin's bag and accusing the boy of stealing it. That's the search the rabbis are talking about: Joseph's steward looking for a goblet he planted there himself.
What are we to think? That hametz is something we've hidden ourselves and the search is a farce? Once again, the rabbis dodge the question. They ask: How should we search? This takes us to the third verse, Zephaniah 1:12: "At that time, I will search Jerusalem with lamps." Here God is saying to the prophet Zephaniah that He's going to root out all the wicked people in Jerusalem by the light of lamps. Therefore, say the rabbis, we should use lamps or candles, too. Does the use of the plural, "lamps," mean we should use more than one candle? No, because of our fourth verse: "The soul of man is the lamp of the Lord, seeking out all the rooms within" (Proverbs 20:27).
To follow the legal reasoning behind all this, you'd need a PhD; to follow the poetry of it, you string the analogies together. We search for hametz as Joseph's steward searched for the goblet, which is like God searching Jerusalem. The way we search is with a candle, which is like the lamp of the Lord lighting up our insides.
A theology emerges. What is man? He who is capable of searching inside himself. What does he search for? Some dark or foreign matter that he has put there himself. With what does he search? The light of God, which is also in himself.
There's a darker thought lurking here. If the man who searches resembles Joseph's steward, then what he's looking for is proof of guilt—proof placed there at his master's command. And if that man also resembles God purging Jerusalem of evildoers, then that means God must have put the evildoers there himself. By the time you get to the fourth verse, God is starting to look pretty unsavory. This is not a God who leaves us the choice to sin or not; this is a God who puts the evil in us and demands we root it out.
The rabbis liked to build little theological mazes and then move on to the next question, leaving us trapped inside. How do we get out? I think the answer lies in the light of a candle. We manage not to sin because ritual shows us where to find our evil and gives us the means to get rid of it. But still: Why a candle rather than a torch or the sun? This time the rabbis bother to answer. Sunlight, the rabbis said, leaves portions of your house in shadow. Torches can blind you. The smallest light is the most reliable. "One can bring the light of a candle into the holes and cracks [of one's house], but one cannot bring the light of a torch into holes and cracks," said Rav Nachman bar Yitzchak. The torch "makes you afraid," said Rav Pappa, "whereas a candle does not make you afraid." (Rashi explains: With a torch, you might set your house on fire.) "The light of a candle is steady," said Ravina, "whereas the light of a torch flickers."

The course shows how to use Git, the popular open-source version control software, to manage changes to source code and text files. Using a step-by-step approach, author Kevin Skoglund presents the commands that enable efficient code management and reveals the fundamental concepts behind version control systems and the Git architecture. Discover how to track changes to files in a repository, review previous edits, and compare versions of a file; create branches to test new ideas without altering the main project; and merge those changes into the project if they work out. The course begins by demonstrating version control in a single-user, standalone context, before exploring how remote repositories allow users to collaborate on projects effectively.
In this movie we're going to make another edit to the Explore California site, and that is that we're going to rename one of our HTML files. From the root of the web site if you go to the menu for Tours, you open that up, scroll down the first tour here, it's called Backpack Cal. It has a nice little graphics are called Backpack Cal. The learn more link will take you to information about it, Backpack Cal, but notice that the name of the file up here is tour_detail_backpack, and that's it. It doesn't say Backpack Cal. And I'm thinking that there maybe a lot of things that are tour_detail_backpack in the future. We could have lots of backpacking adventures.
We need to be more specific. So we're going to change this file name to be tour_detail_backpack_cal so that it matches what's on the rest of the page. So that's going to involve renaming the file and also changing some content on some of the pages where we have links to this file. The very common sort of task that one might do within an HTML web site. So from inside my project I could just rename this file. I could go into the operating system and rename the file, but I think it's better to do the rename from inside git so there's no changes to my working directory right now.
Let's do the rename git move, and it's going to be inside the tours directory and the tour_detail_backpack.html that's its current name. We're going to move it to tours/tour_ detail_backpack_cal.html. So that moved it. If we take a look here we see that it's moved. In the project it shows it's moved. If we were to go to it in the finder we'd see it was moved as well, and if we do git status, it now shows it in the staged items that the item has been renamed.
So now we need to track down all the link references to this HTML page. So we'll do that with a global search I'll look for everything that was _backpack.html _backpack.html. You see came up with three instances I'm going to click on those three instances so that they open up for me and those are the ones I'm going to change. So here's the first one backpack_cal, save it, and close it. This one is right backpack_cal, save it, close, and the last one save it and close it. So I made those three changes. If we do our global search for backpack. html we don't find any, and if we do a search for backpack_cal, we see that all three are there.
So now we've changed our working directory, git status. So our working directory has those three changes in it. Our staging index has the rename in it. Now I want to make sure that something is super clear to you, which is, that if we go right now without committing anything to our repository, if we go right now to Firefox, and we take a look at this let's go to the top-level Explore California, Tours here's the tour. The learn more link, notice where it's going to take me. You can see it at the very bottom of my screen, or I'll go ahead and go there, and you can see it up here. It takes me to backpack_cal.
It changed the link already. Just make sure that that super clear to you. Our working directory is what we're working with. So that's what we're looking at in the browser. The browser has nothing to do with what's in the repository or what's in staging directory. It's about what's on the file system. So that is our working directory as we change files we see them right away in the browser. So we change them we've look at them again, we see if they're right. If you're doing something besides web, if you're compiling code, you can compile your code to see if it runs, but once you've got exactly like you want you want, maybe you're restyling the page or something and everything looks just right, then we can come over to git and say, okay git, I've now got my working directory in a state that's ready to commit, I'm ready to commit it.
I just want to make sure that you realize that your working directory is what you're working with all the time. That's what you're seeing. What's happening in the staging and the repository are just for git to use, they're not something that you can work with from your browser or compile and any thing like that. You've to bring changes into your working directory in order be able to work with them. So now we're ready to make commits, let's go ahead and do git add, and let's add tours.html. So now it added tours to the list. We also want to add these two files that we made changes to.
They're both in the same directory, the tours directory. We can actually just say git add tours and then usually put the slash after it to make sure it knows it's a directory and everything that's inside of it, you also put the asterisk after it, which lets it know everything inside of is a wildcard, but you don't have to. Add everything in the tours directory to the staging area, git status. Let me clear my screen so you can see it better, and now we see those things there. Notice that we don't see separate entries for the rename that we did and for the changes that we've made from one file to other. Is it peculiar? I needed you to be aware of.
We made changes to the file detail_backpack, we've changed the URL in it. But git reports it to us as just being a rename, in this case. Let's say that we're about ready to do our commit and suddenly we get a phone call from the client and the client tells us that we've need to change something on the Contact page that on the account page there are all these contractions. So we want take out all those contractions. So let's switch over here while we've got the client on the phone, we go ahead and just make sure that we've got it all straight, and we say if you are on this page, we are guessing you have got something to say! Drop us a line.
If you are looking for our seasonal tours--take out that extra space--and (we do not publish these for everyone!), but we will be sure to throw in some cool discounts if you are currently on a tour. So there we've taken out all the contractions and turn them into--oops, I missed one here, let us know what you are thinking. So we've got them all now. I'm going to save that. We come back over here to git, git status. Now we've got this additional change here that we've made to the Contact page.
So we get off the phone with the client, we've now made the changes, and we're ready to deal with it in git. The best practice here is to deal with these as two separate commits. You wouldn't want to add contact into the commit that you are making about tours, because the one about tours is about something different, and we want to try and make our commits related to each other. There's no need for us to break those top three files down any further. They're all related, they are all one conceptual change that we're making at that time. But the conceptual change that we're making to contact is a different one.
So let's make them as two different commits. So we're going to say git commit -m and the first commit is going to be, "Renamed Backpack Cal file for clarity". And then right afterwards we will do git commit--and remember I told you the shortcut, git commit -a with an m after it--and then we'll say, "Removed contractions from contact page text", and now we've made that one git status.
Our working directory is clean, git log, and we can see both of our commits that we've made. Now it's very clear what each one of those commits is doing, the goal that each one is trying to achieve. It takes practice to learn how to group files together and to write good commits for them. But you'll get better at it over time.

Impact Central
This view of the trailing hemisphere of Saturn's moon Rhea shows the region's bright wispy markings, but also shows off the moon's craters in great detail. Of particular interest to imaging scientists is the distribution and orientation of the many craters with polygonal rims. These are craters with rough, angular shapes, rather than smooth, circular ones. Rhea is 1,528 kilometers (949 miles) across.
This image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow angle camera on Jan. 16, 2005, at a distance of approximately 500,000 kilometers (311,000 miles) from Rhea and at a Sun-Rhea-spacecraft, or phase, angle of 35 degrees. (PIA06578 is a true color version of this image.) Resolution in the original image was about 3 kilometers (2 miles) per pixel. The image has been rotated so that north on Rhea is up. Contrast was enhanced and the image was magnified by a factor of two to aid visibility.
