In a 7-2 decision handed down on Jan. 19, 2010, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the jury selection process in most criminal cases must be open to the public under the defendant's Sixth Amendment guarantee of a public trial.
"Trial courts are obligated to take every reasonable measure to accommodate public attendance at criminal trials," the majority wrote in an unsigned per curiam opinion in Presley v. Georgia, 130 S. Ct. 721 (2010). The decision was a summary disposition, meaning the case was decided without any oral argument or briefing beyond the initial petition and response.
The appellant in the case, Eric Presley, was convicted of a cocaine trafficking offense in a Georgia state court in 2007. According to the Supreme Court's opinion, a trial court judge noticed a single observer, Presley's uncle, present in the courtroom as it was about to begin questioning prospective jurors for Presley's trial. The judge told the man that he was not allowed to stay in the courtroom and must leave that floor of the courthouse entirely to avoid interacting with jurors.
When Presley's attorney objected to "the exclusion of the public from the courtroom," the judge said that there "just isn't space for them to sit in the audience," and that there was "really no need for the uncle to be present during jury selection."
After Presley's conviction, he filed a motion for a new trial based on the exclusion of the public from the jury selection, and presented evidence showing that 14 prospective jurors could have fit in the jury box and the remaining 28 could have fit entirely on one side of the courtroom, leaving adequate room for members of the public on the other side.
The trial court judge denied Presley's motion, stating that "it's up to the individual judge to decide . . . what's comfortable," and that "It's totally up to my discretion whether or not I want family members in the courtroom to intermingle with the jurors and sit directly behind the jurors where they might overhear some inadvertent comment or conversation."
Presley appealed the decision, arguing that his Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment rights to a public trial were violated when the trial court judge excluded the public from the voir dire, or jury selection, portion of his trial. Presley's conviction was affirmed by the Georgia Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court of Georgia, both of which ruled that the trial judge had made sufficient findings to close the courtroom to the public.
In reversing the lower courts, the U.S. Supreme Court held that a defendant's Sixth Amendment right to an open trial and the First Amendment rights of members of the public and the press to access court proceedings, as established in court cases such as Press-Enterprise Co. v. Superior Court, 464 U.S. 501 (1984), were generally coextensive.
"There can be little doubt that the explicit Sixth Amendment right of the accused is no less protective of a public trial than the implicit First Amendment right of the press and public," the opinion stated.
The Court again cited Press Enterprise for the principle that the right to a public trial extended to the voir dire process. "In the First Amendment context that question was answered in Press-Enterprise. The Court there held that the voir dire of prospective jurors must be open to the public under the First Amendment," the opinion stated. "[T]here is no legitimate reason, at least in the context of juror selection proceedings, to give one who asserts a First Amendment privilege greater rights to insist on public proceedings than the accused has."
Despite the court's finding that a general Sixth Amendment right to a public trial and jury selection exists, the Court held that the right was not absolute. "[T]he right to an open trial may give way in certain cases to other rights or interests, such as . . . the government's interest in inhibiting disclosure of sensitive information," the majority opinion stated, citing Waller v. Georgia, 467 U.S. 39 (1984). "Such circumstances will be rare, however, and the balance of interests must be struck with special care . . . the party seeking to close the hearing must advance an overriding interest that is likely to be prejudiced, the closure must be no broader than necessary to protect that interest, the trial court must consider reasonable alternatives to closing the proceeding, and it must make findings adequate to support the closure."
Justice Clarence Thomas wrote a dissenting opinion in the case, which was joined by Justice Antonin Scalia, objecting to the court's decision to issue the opinion without the customary opportunity for the parties to present oral arguments and a full briefing. The dissent did not take a position on whether the Sixth Amendment question was correctly decided.
David E. Hudson, general counsel of the Georgia Press Association, called the ruling "a ringing affirmation" of the public's right to be present for all parts of a criminal trial in a January 20 story in The Atlanta Journal-Constituiton. "There should be no doubt now in any trial court in Georgia or in other states that this important right must be protected by the presiding judge," Hudson said.

How Janaki Made This - Mysore Pak (soft)
By Janaki Sekar | Posted on Nov 28, 2012
One String consistency is always a challenge for me. I made it four times to get it fully right.. I loved the idea of mixing Olive oil as it made the sweet to be light while consumption, as I have always felt that full ghee would make me feel heavy. The wonderful pictorial representations helped me a lot and the doneness examples like "Moses parted the red sea " :). Thanks a lot . These days any dish I want to make, I am looking into your site for reference! :)
The original recipe from which this was made...
Mysore Pak (soft)
The word "Mysore Pak" does wonders to an Indian's palate (esp. a South Indian). Immediately as if a switch went on, there is an instant drool. This has to be ...

"Hopefully we can mitigate it getting any worse... Stuff like this happens everywhere. It does and I think it might hit Benton County a little bit harder because this is still kind of a small town feel," said Deputy Keshia Guyll with the Benton County Sheriff's Office.
Several divisions from the sheriff's office assisted in the prostitution sting because where they find prostitution, they often find other illegal activity.
"Where you have drugs is where you're going to have money and where you have money, you're going to have drugs and as in this situation, prostitution."
Wednesday night's sting netted all three.
"As a result of Wednesday night, we did have some drugs that were seized along with some money, so it's definitely happening."
Trading drugs for sex. Some in the community are startled by this shady activity happening on their streets.
"Our proactive approach to try to handle this problem before it gets out of hand and it gets so big that we can't do anything about it, therefore we have to be reactive which makes it much more difficult to deal with."
According to Guyll, nine people were arrested during the bust. But the question remains, is prostitution on the rise in our area?
"I wouldn't say that Benton County has a huge issue with prostitution, but once again, we're trying to be proactive instead of reactive."
And Guyll reassures the Benton County Sheriff's Office will keep hitting the pavement, working to curb this crime.
"We don't want citizens to be concerned about this, we're going to do what we can to handle it."
Deputies said they plan on conducting several more stings throughout the year.

New England fall foliage - and my late grandmother's aubergine house
We squeezed in five minutes to stop by and gaze at the house my mother grew up in from age 12...and where I visited my grandmother every summer as a child. The new owners appear to have painted it "aubergine" (my mother tells me it's not referred to as purple). It looks gray in this photo, but I tell you, it's that color between red and blue).

Glad to see the house looks pretty much the same.
I'm guessing the BOW WOW is gone from the front yard?
Posted by: Paul | Oct 19, 2011 10:18:12 PM
I don't remember seeing it...the swing is definitely gone, and the sign on the garage.

Thank you for these pictures. I really miss the Enchanted Cottage, and your pix bring back such great memories!
Posted by: Suzanne | Oct 22, 2011 4:18:51 PM
Hi Suzanne,
yeah it was really odd to be there...no Grammy, no swing, aubergine-colored house, but same structure, same garage, same lawn and hedge and tree, neighborhood, and memories of so many years gone by. My husband was so sweet to let us stop, in the middle of an already hectic trip. What a guy. But hey, it was lunch-time and the Chester exit popped up at just the right moment...Of course I am picturing all of Grammys furniture inside, since I didnt go inside and get those memories disturbed with todays reality of the new people living there.

One of the most eagerly awaited fight cards of the year, UFC 158 in Montreal is already staking its claim as a highpoint for the promotion in 2013.
The event saw Quebec's favourite son, George St. Pierre, return to the province's capital four months after defeating Carlos Condit in the same arena at the Bell Centre, Montreal. The champion defended his title once again, against one of his darkest nemeses, Nick Diaz, cruising to another five-round decision win.
But that performance was a long way from being the finest on the night. GSP, for all his merits, was beaten for pace in the later rounds, and never looked close to finishing, or seriously damaging, his opponent. Others on the fight card were more resplendent.
Johny Hendricks
Often overlooked, welterweight contender Johny Hendricks won't be overlooked anymore after he took apart former No. 1 contender Carlos Condit over three rounds with thunderous takedowns and reckless boxing.
Anyone doubting Hendricks' merits to go up against GSP will now have to think again. He was an animal.
Hendricks came out with mean intentions and pushed the pace from the beginning—looking to land one of his powerful punches that has put the lights out of eight men in his 16-fight career.
But Condit returned fire with fire, and that's why Hendricks was so impressive. Despite the obvious danger Condit posed, and his technical superiority in the striking department, Hendricks never backed down and continued to throw vicious shots aimed squarely at taking off his opponent's head. With timing and explosiveness worthy of GSP, the division's best wrestler, Hendricks switched for the takedown repeatedly, before Condit could even blink.
The victory has conferred him with six straight wins and left Hendricks the undeniable challenger at 170 pounds.
Jake Ellenberger
Jake Ellenberger's victory over Nate Marquardt was emphatic—winning via first-round KO in a powerful display of boxing superiority.
The win gives him an 8-1 record in his last nine fights, one of the best in the division, and will surely put him in the top five at 170 pounds (he's currently at No; 3) when the UFC updates its rankings.
Ellenberger's last fight against Jay Hieron was a lacklustre three-round victory, but there was no chance this fight would go the same way.
After a tentative feeling out process, Ellenberger's movement and timing with his boxing was that much sharper, and after clipping his opponent three minutes into the fight, he was able to finish the job with devastating style.
The win earned him the Knockout of the Night bonus and rightfully so.
Jordan Mein
Strikeforce's band of desperados who've invaded the UFC since the dissolution of the promotion, seem to be crushing everyone in their paths. Middleweight Jordan Mein, at just 23, proved just how talented that bunch is, by finishing the tenacious Dan Miller inside the first round.
Miller is one of the most difficult fighters in the world to stop, and had, in fact, never been stopped in 20 fights. That was until his night was cut short by Mein.

The first settlers in the district were overlanders from New South Wales, who arrived in 1837. By 1839, settlements and farms dotted the area along the Goulburn River.
The town was surveyed and laid out in 1855 and named after a Colonel Lacy Yea who was killed in the Crimean War. Town lots went on sale at Kilmore the following year. Settlement followed and the Post Office opened on January 15, 1858.
When gold was discovered in the area in 1859 a number of smaller mining settlements came into existence, including Molesworth. Yea expanded into a township under the influx of hopeful prospectors, with the addition of several housing areas, an Anglican church (erected in 1869) and a population of 250 when it formally became a shire in 1873.
What later became the railway to Mansfield arrived in 1883, with an extension to Molesworth in 1889, chiefly for timber transport to Melbourne. Running steam trains, the train service cut through steep hills and undulating country to connect the shire with the main city. The line was closed on November 18, 1978, with the last passenger service running on May 28, 1977. Although much of the railway property has been appropriated by nearby farmland, the original tracks and crossings may be still be discerned across the countryside, and the railway station, built in 1889, has now been converted to a Heritage Information centre.
Yea was promoted as something of a tourist centre in the 1890s with trout being released into King Parrot Creek to attract recreational anglers. A Post Office was built in 1890, followed by a Grandstand and a Butter factory (now Cheese factory) in 1891. There was a proposal in 1908 to submerge the town under the Trawool Water Scheme but it never went ahead.
By 1911 the town's population had increased to 1126 and has remained relatively stable, despite two severe floods in 1934 and 1973 and a major conflagration in 1969. The Limestone Road Baragwanathia fossil site has been registered in the National Estate due to the discovery of the most ancient leafy foliage so far found on earth.

Don't forget to draw outside of your anatomy books as well. It's not good to just focus on anatomy- you've gotta have a little fun with art to stay interested in it
Good luck with your studies though.

The developer of the Harbor East neighborhood on Baltimore's waterfront has split into two companies, one that will focus on building at the adjacent Harbor Point and a second company that will manage Harbor East properties.
Michael S. Beatty, who founded H&S Properties Development in 1995 with John Paterakis, the owner of H&S Bakery Inc., to develop Harbor East, will lead the newly formed Harbor Point Development Group LLC, announced Harbor East Cos./H&S Properties Development Corp.
"My passion has always been on the real estate development side," Beatty said Wednesday. "I've spent 20 years creating one neighborhood, and I see value in creating more. I love this town, and there are other things I wanted to focus on in the city."

Harbor East, Baltimore, MD, USA
The Harbor Point company will continue to develop Harbor Point, including starting construction this spring on a regional headquarters for Exelon Corp, the Chicago-based energy giant which acquired Constellation Energy last year. The 27-acre Harbor Point, between Harbor East and Fells Point, is home to Morgan Stanley and slated to get a total of 3 million square feet of development.
Plans for the glassy, 22-story Exelon skyscraper, part of the $250 million first phase of the area's development, are to be presented Thursday morning to the city's Urban Design and Architecture Review Panel.
Beatty will serve as president of the seven-person company, made up of development executives from the Harbor East company, and work from an office at Harbor Point.
Spinning off the development side of the business will allow Harbor East Management Group, created five years ago, to better focus on leasing, managing and renovating a project that now includes about 5.5 million square feet of offices, apartments, shops, hotels and restaurants. That company will be headed by Tim O'Donald, who had been a vice president and director of property management for Harbor East.
"Harbor East was envisioned as a third of the size of what Harbor East has become," Beatty said. "It's become more and more of an operational project that needs more focus."
Beatty said splitting the company doesn't mean a split from a partnership with the Paterakis family. Paterakis and Beatty will keep an ownership stake in the Exelon tower. Paterakis, who could not be reached Wednesday, likely will continue to invest in Beatty-developed projects, Beatty said.
Paterakis and his family "will always be partners and friends, and John is like a father," Beatty said. "I've always been running the development, and he's invested, and that role will continue."
The new development company also plans to pursue projects elsewhere in Baltimore with other investors. Besides the Exelon building, the company plans to redevelop a parking lot north of Penn Station and is considering the best uses for the site, Beatty said.
Future projects would likely branch out into other parts of the city.
"Clearly we're going to stay urban and focused on larger, mixed-use projects," he said.

Researchers from the Cancer Institute of New Jersey (CINJ) surveyed 545 participants via telephone to evaluate how demographic, medical, psychological, social, and knowledge factors correlate with sun protection and sunbathing practices in first-degree relatives (FDRs) of melanoma patients.
The scientists found that FDRs who practiced higher sun protection had a higher level of education and greater concerns about "photo-aging" from harmful sunlight, amongst other correlations.
Those FDRs who practiced higher sunbathing tended to be younger females, who used sunscreen less and perceived more benefits from sunbathing, such as a good suntan.
The research team concluded that intervention might be necessary for family members at risk of melanoma to change habits and perceptions.
"To reduce the incidence of melanoma, we need to reduce the perceived benefits of sunbathing and to increase the use of sun protection," said lead researcher Dr. Sharon Manne, according to Cancer Research UK.
Jessica Harris, senior health information officer at the UK charity said that people at risk can still enjoy a safer lifestyle when it comes to sun exposure.
"Enjoying the sun safely and avoiding sunburn reduces the risk of skin cancer," Harris said. "Sunburn is a clear sign your skin has been damaged by the sun's UV rays."
She noted that "having a family history of melanoma increases the risk of the disease," meaning that it is important for relatives of people who have the cancer, people with fair skin, fair or red hair, and with many moles or freckles to "know how they can lower the chances of developing skin cancer."

Geez, Hank Steinbrenner really needs to learn how to give his opinion. Hank wants Joba Chamberlain to start, and in saying so he basically called everyone else in the Yankee organization an idiot.
├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├āŌĆ"├óŌé¼┼ōI want him as a starter and so does everyone else, including him, and that is what we are working toward and we need him there now,├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├āŌĆÜ├é┬Ø Steinbrenner said Sunday by telephone. ├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├āŌĆ"├óŌé¼┼ōThere is no question about it, you don├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Š├é┬ót have a guy with a 100-mile-per-hour fastball and keep him as a setup guy. You just don├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Š├é┬ót do that. You have to be an idiot to do that.├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├āŌĆÜ├é┬Ø
Steinbrenner said the Yankees were working on easing Chamberlain into the rotation, but he would not be specific on a timetable. The Yankees├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Š├é┬ó brain trust had wanted to limit Chamberlain├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Š├é┬ós innings by having him spend at least part of the season in the bullpen. ├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├āŌĆ"├óŌé¼┼ōThe mistake was already made last year switching him to the bullpen out of panic or whatever,├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├āŌĆÜ├é┬Ø Steinbrenner said. ├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├āŌĆ"├óŌé¼┼ōI had no say in it last year and I wouldn├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Š├é┬ót have allowed it. That was done last year, so now we have to catch up. It has to be done on a schedule so we don├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Š├é┬ót rush him.├āŲÆ├é┬ó├ā┬ó├óŌé¼┼Ī├é┬¼├āŌĆÜ├é┬Ø
So, let's see. That makes GM Brian Cashman an idiot. It makes Joe Torre and Ron Guidry idiots. It makes Joe Girardi and Dave Eiland idiots. It makes minor league gurus Nardi Contreras and Marc Newman idiots.
By the way, when did Hank learn so much about baseball? He's been so involved in the game for so long — right by his father's side and all that. I'm sure he knows more baseball than his GM, his manager, coaches, scouts and minor-league coordinators combined. Yep, Hank has proven that he knows how to develop a pitching staff.
Oh, and what happened to all that patience he promised? It lasted 20 games.
Hank is, unquestionably, a clone of his father. That makes for great headlines, and great blog topics, but it doesn't help the Yankees.
As for the Chamberlain to the rotation talk, it is inevitable that Joba will start. I just don't see pushing him into the rotation now as a wise thing. Hank obviously wants Mussina dropped. That means you would have three kids trying to figure out how to start in the big leagues. Great idea! It's going real well for Phil Hughes (0-3, 8.82 ERA) and Ian Kennedy (0-2, 9.64). Sure, throw a third unproven kid starter in there. That'll help.
You can't send Hughes or Kennedy down yet, and you can't dump Mussina this early. So, patience Hank, patience.
You will get what you want eventually. Just not right now.
It's nice to see Hank Hill, er, Steinbrenner fully embrace the rest of the Yankees management team. I mean, he could have called them retards. That would have been mean.
The fact that he doesn't think fireballers belong in the closer's role tells you how much he knows about baseball. The fact that he is calling everyone out because he's upset over the Santana deal just makes him more of a childish idiot than he already was.
I think it's time the Yankees, including the fans, learn that sometimes you just have to say those dreaded words "there's always next year". But because of that family's inability to comprehend that concept, I fully expect Boss Jr. to force Cashman to make a stupid move before the All-Star break.

Elvis Presley's Memphis home Graceland photographed by Hedi Slimane
With over 600,000 snap happy visitors a year, you can imagine that Elvis Presley's infamous Graceland mansion is pretty well documented. But it takes someone truly special to photograph something famous and still make it seem brand new, which is why we're glad that Hedi Slimane – lover of rock and roll, and young, good-looking, rebellious men – took a trip to Elvis' Memphis home late last year and brought his camera along.
We've long been fans of Hedi's monochromatic, star-studded, sweat covered online diary and have written about it a few times, but this little nugget of a day trip he made to a tourist site is just proof that when Hedi wants to stop photographing teenagers going nuts on stage for a minute and do a rather tender series like this, he totally comes into his own. This may look simple, but not many people could photograph a home like this with such dark energy and significance. Not many at all.
On another note, how much does Graceland look like the house from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air?

You may be able to get a school loan if you have filed Chapter 13 bankruptcy, but you'll likely be limited to federal student loans, rather than loans from private lenders.
It is important to remember that federal student loans are based on a person's financial needs, not their credit worthiness. As a result, getting a school loan after filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a real possibility.
To learn more about what to expect after bankruptcy, connect with a local lawyer for a free consultation by filling out the form below.
After a Chapter 13 filing, many people use their new-found financial freedom to get more education. School, though, can cost a great deal of money, and many people finance their degrees with student loans.
After a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you may be able to get a student loan. Here are some things to remember:
On the other hand, if you have not yet discharged your Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you should always check with your trustee or attorney before taking out a loan during bankruptcy.
Some students may also wonder whether they will be able to discharge student loans when they file bankruptcy. Unfortunately, most people are unable to eliminate student loans in bankruptcy.
However, an exception applies if an individual can prove "undue hardship," which requires showing all three of the following conditions:
So, discharging student loans is very difficult, but obtaining new student loans if you previously filed Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be possible.Speak to a Bankruptcy Lawyer Today

The iPad really can be the perfect virtual recipe book, but when using your iPad in the kitchen there's always a chance that something's going to get spilt on it. Fortunately, one new iPad case has you covered. It's called "Chef Sleeve," and it can keep your tablet safe from eggs, milk, cake mix and more.
For $20, you get 25 Chef Sleeves which can protect your iPad from spillages, and can even be resealed and reused. The sleeves themselves are kind of like zip-bags (but without the zips) into which the iPad slides and stays dry and grime-less while you're cooking. The Chef Sleeves are FDA approved, eco-friendly and are ultra-clear, meaning once you've applied the sleeve, you'll barely notice it. They're touch-sensetive, too, so users can continue to interact with their iPad's touch screen in the kitchen.
Chef Sleeves are Apple approved, and compatible with both the original iPad and the iPad 2. For more information, head on over to the accessory's website now, and let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Google Maps application arrives on the iPhone
It's finally here, folks. After taking an exit from the iOS platform with the arrival of iOS 6, the Google Maps application started journey as a standalone app that had to be downloaded from the App Store. And although it did take some time coming, the app is now finally available for download.
Google did take its own sweet time but the app seems every bit as good as the Android version on paper and is even better than the one you previously had on iOS. Not to mention the current Apple Maps.
Among the key new features is the presence of turn-by-turn voice navigation, something that was missing from the built-in Google Maps on iOS. You also get local search, public transport directions, Street View and a lot more.
As you can expect from Google, the app is free to download. Unfortunately, it is only available on the iPhone right now but hopefully an iPad version will arrive later.

This is so yuck! Apple is so stupid they tried to make their own maps but it was a failure. This proves that Apple is not the best and no phone is perfect.

Address Class : B
Bits Borrowed for Subnet: Class B is a 16-bit mask, but the SN above is a /24 so you borrowed 8 bits
Bits for Host: ____8_____
Number of Usable Subnets: 2^8 = 256 subnets
Number of Usable Hosts/Subnet: 32 bit address - 24 bit subnet address for a /24 = 8 bits for hosts -> 2^8 - 2 = 254 hosts per subnet

Bromont Bike Park is THE destination for downhill mountain biking in Quebec. Ski Bromont offers riders a variety of 19 downhill trails that are accessible by lift access and maintained by crews working non-stop to provide perfect riding conditions.
Recognized for its trails that challenge the skills of expert riders, Ski Bromont earned itself the prestigious Best Bike Park – Eastern Canada title this winter, an honour awarded by MTBparks.com. As it pursues the development of its downhill trails for elite riders, the resort is also hard at work developing accessible runs for novices. By way of further enhancing the experience of all riders, Ski Bromont is happy to announce the launch of its new Mountain Bike School this summer.
Similar to its Ski School, the Ski Bromont Mountain Bike School offers private and group lessons to both novices who want to try out the sport for the first time and experienced riders who want to hone their technique. The new school is made possible through a partnership with Dirt Camp, the best known bike camp in Quebec and the oldest in Canada.
Several initiation days to introduce people to mountain biking will be offered during the season. Rocky Mountain Initiation Sessions include the rental of the bike and protective gear, one lift ticket, one lesson and the presence of a certified instructor on the trails. Visitors to the Ski Bromont Water Park can also try their hand at mountain biking; Ski Bromont loans them a bike, free of charge, so they can enjoy the Grande douce trail.
The regional B-Maaxx competition circuit will be back for a third consecutive year, this time with an additional fourth stage. Held exclusively on Ski Bromont trails, the B-Maaxx Circuit aims to introduce novices to competitive racing, while also giving experienced riders a chance to put their abilities to the test. The stages will take place on Saturday May 24, July 5, August 16 and September 20. Then, on Sunday, May 25, Ski Bromont will be hosting one of the races of the Quebec Cup.
150 Rue Champlain, Bromont, Quebec, Canada, J2L 1A2. Bromont is located about 45 minutes South/East of the city of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Pop overs
Pop overs are a family favorite, like its ok if the turkey gets cold while the pop overs cook (Kenji's prime rib is a life saver). I can not mess with them on a holiday, so there will not be any experimenting today. But has anyone tried warming the milk and reconstituting dried mushrooms in it and using the mushroom infused milk in the pop overs?

NIH commits up to $2.5 million to research on environmental risk factors for AUTISM – DUE July 26!
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has announced two new funding opportunities for research projects aimed at advancing understanding of environmental contributors to autism spectrum disorder. In scientific terms, "environmental" refers to a broad range of non-genetic influences. In the case of autism, research has implicated factors as varied as maternal nutrition and birth complications to exposure to air pollution during pregnancy and early infancy.
The first funding opportunity is an "exploratory" research project with funding of up to $275,000 a year for two years. See details here: PAR-14-202
The second opportunity is for a full-fledged research project with funding up to $400,000 a year for up to 5 years. More information about this funding opportunity can be found here: PAR-14-203

Pursuant to my last post, a substantial part of the push to fire Ed DeMarco or force him to engage in principal reductions comes from the direct action bank accountability groups that have been the most aggressive and least connected to the "extend and pretend" idea. So even though writing down GSE loans without fully writing down the second liens (or possibly not at all) delivers a clear subsidy to the banks, the main anti-bank groups have gone along with this push on DeMarco. Why?
"Because they have 60% of the market," said Liz Ryan Murray of National People's Action, one of the leading bank accountability groups in the nation. "If we can crack 60% of the market, we open up the scene for the rest of the industry, and numbers-wise that'll have a big impact."
This comes "primarily from the perspective of homeowners," according to Murray. But there's no guarantee that even the removal of DeMarco would change GSE policy on housing. A removal of DeMarco would give the spot of acting director up to one of his deputies, who presumably has the same focus. Bank accountability leaders spoke of a "third way" in an interview, the idea that anyone in government right now who has been confirmed by the Senate could be installed as acting director, for example a deputy from HUD. But this is just unlikely when you consider the Administration's observable behavior with regards to FHFA. Right now, there's no nominee in place to head up FHFA; in the three YEARS that DeMarco has been acting director, there's only been a nominee in place for three months. "There needs to be a nominee, as a show of seriousness on the part of the Administration," Murray acknowledged.
But if the lack of seriousness wasn't already evident on FHFA and the broader issue of principal reduction, I don't know what else you need for convincing. The Administration brokered a settlement that allows banks to pay for substantial amounts of their settlement by bulldozing or donating homes or waiving deficiency judgments, something they do as a matter of course. The lack of a nominee for FHFA is another example. So is the lack of sanctions for servicers under HAMP, or the lack of meaningful investigations into financial fraud, or the constant settlements where the guilty party can "neither admit nor deny" wrongdoing. I could go on. [cont'd.]
"We want the President to make principal reduction a priority," said Tracy Van Slyke of the New Bottom Line. But the focus on DeMarco has been very convenient for the Administration, shifting away from their housing deficiencies and toward this one Bush-era official who is supposedly gumming up the works.
Apparently this focus is about to change. Over the next several weeks, these bank accountability leaders told me they will step up their direct efforts against the banks and also the Administration. One of their subjects of inquiry will be the securitization fraud task force, officially known as the "RMBS working group," the panel co-chaired by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, empowered to look into criminal fraud in the securitization process. After months of back-channel queries about the intentions and resources behind this effort, the groups feel like they need to take it out into the open to solve "the case of the missing task force," as one of them put it.
The effort will include a deliberate connection to the President's re-election campaign. Many of the targets for direct action will be the hundreds of OFA (Obama for America) offices across the country. "That's what makes this thing more real," Tracy Van Slyke said. "Underwater homeowners are a huge potential voting block. There's a lot of anger out there. We have to build up the pressure."
In addition, the groups plan to hold actions at over 40 shareholder meetings across the country, mostly concentrated on the finance sector. They expect thousands of people at these actions, according to Ilana Berger of The New Bottom Line. The idea is to demonstrate "how these banks are draining wealth from communities" in a variety of ways, from the foreclosure crisis to investments in private prisons that incarcerate communities of color in high numbers. "John Stumpf (the CEO of Wells Fargo) is on the board of a lot of other corporations," Berger said. "We want to show the different ways of how these big banks touch our lives."
Finally, in addition to direct actions at banks, there will be additional efforts to move money out of the big banks. Fifteen different cities have pending "responsible banking ordinances" that would force the divestment of local funds from banks that harm communities.
So after a pause dedicated to beating up on DeMarco, we may return to that spirit of street actions for the 99%, targeted at the banks as well as the political leadership. And there was also an acknowledgement that the past deficiencies of the foreclosure mitigation and other programs need to become a central part of the agenda. As Liz Ryan Murray said, "Our strategy is how do we move forward to better, and maybe that's a mistake."

Nervo was born in Tepic, Nayarit. His father died when he was 13. He was a journalist for a living. He founded in 1898, along with Jesús Valenzuela, La Revista Moderna ("The Modern Review"). He spent the first years of the 20th century in Europe, particularly in Paris. He then moved back to Mexico, where he was appointed plenipotentiary minister in Argentina and Uruguay.
In 1901 while he was in Paris he met and married Ana Cecilia Luisa Dailliez. They lived happily until her untimely death in 1912. Out of his grief and desperation, Nervo wrote his most important work, "La Amada Inmóvil" ("The Motionless Loved One"), published posthumously in 1922.
While in Paris he befriended Enrique Gómez Carillo and Aurora Cáceres for whose 'La rosa muerta' he wrote a prologue. It is also likely he was in contact with Rubén Darío.
He is perhaps the most important Mexican poet of the nineteenth century.
The house where he was born is now a museum and is situated on a street that bears his name.

Colts shut out by skillful Eagles
Crossroads Christian allowed a goal on a deflection in the opening minute Tuesday and Cape Fear Christian Academy rolled on from there, taking a 6-0 win back to Erwin.
Crossroads fell to 2-6-0 in the 1-A Carolina Christian Conference and are in line for an eight-seed in the upcoming league tournament. The Colts would host the ninth seed in the opening round should they hang on to the eight-spot.
"Very skilled team," Crossroads head coach Joshua Bogle said of Cape Fear. "Had several players that just had a really good touch on the ball, really good passes, good combinations. Their one-touch was really good."
Cape Fear added its second on a penalty kick and led 2-0 at halftime.
"I felt like we should have been doing better," said Bogle. "I think our guys came out a little flat and stayed flat. I think we should have played them better."
The Eagles previously played to a draw with Community Christian of Wilson, a team Crossroads has a win over. The Colts' other league win came against Cresset Christian.
Bogle said Ben Paul, Noah Carlson and midfielder Reid Sudheimer have been playing well as of late.
"Ben Paul is always big for us on defense," said Bogle. "Noah Carlson in the midfield. Reid Sudheimer has been stepping up for us the last couple of weeks. I'd say those are the three that have stepped up the most in the last couple of weeks."
Crossroads travels to Grace Christian of Sanford Friday.

Journalist Arrested for Exposing Felling of Historic Trees
Filed Under: Health & Science, World | Posted: 07/28/2012 at 3:33PM
Comments | Region: Pakistan
By Zafar Iqbal
NEELUM VALLEY, Jammu and Kashmir,
A journalist has been arrested by police and is being detained after the publication of photos he took of historic trees chopped down by government officials.
Elderly eyewitnesses say the trees that were cut down were 54 years old. They were planted by the hands of prominent personalities of national fame, including the first Prime Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, Abdul Hamid Khan.
The photos show trees that were felled before the July 18 visit of Pakistani Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf to Athmuqam in the Neelum Valley of Pakistan-administered Kashmir.
Khawaja Fiaz Hussain, a correspondent for a leading Urdu daily newspaper and a freelance photojournalist, released a collection of images of the felled trees, both pines and other species.
The images were widely carried by local newspapers and aroused public anger over the logging by the government workers, whom local people describe as being primarily responsible for the protection of forests and environment.
In the Neelum Valley, the forests of pine fir and deodar trees provide habitat for endangered species of wildlife.

text: I understand this and as I said, it is a big risk. But I say go for it. Especially if there is someone who we feel can come in and start over what we already have. I don't want to make a deal just to make a deal. If there's nobody that we feel can fit that bill, than by all means, just stay put, or trade down if a nice offer comes in. But I would be willing to give up that first next year if we can get another starter out of it.

Below is the poem entitled Canvas which was written by poet
Collier. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Orlin Collier
Walking up the stairs
She lays on the floor
He runs
Holding her cold body in his arms
He lets a tear fall from his eye
Dragging her down the stairs and into the cellar
He lays her on the canvas they painted on the floor
He spreads her arms and legs out
Pointing them the direction of North, South, West and East
He places four candles around the circle
Lighting them with his lighter
He sits and watches as he pours the hot wax on her face
He cuts around her eyes, slowly taking her eyes out
Gluing her eye lids shut covering them with the wax once again
He cuts her up in pieces
Scattering her in art forms
Admiring her beauty
He places her eyes in a glass jar
Wrapping her hands around a picture frame
He places her face on his ... as a mask
Gluing her face unto his
He lays on the canvas that is now covered in blood
He moves around
His clothes covered in her blood
He watches through her eyes
The world she once saw
He places her face back on the canvas
He shuts off all the lights and walks up the stairs
Looking in the bathroom he saw the drug she has been taking
He cuts it up and sniffs it
He lays on the floor shaking
Crawling down the stairs to the cellar door
Trying to move but he cant move any further
His heart stops beating but hes still alive
The minute he had left
He opened the door
And rolled down the cellar stairs
Landing on the canvas
His face next to hers
"How its hurts now that your gone
Its so wrong"

Technological advances being what they are, downloading music no longer involves a three-story window and an empty pickup truck and even people with voices like an albatross can put on best-selling albums; luckily, today's music audiences want more than just glorified karaoke. Even if you couldn't carry a tune in a bucket with a lid on it and auto-tune really isn't your thing, you can still make music with the Basic DJ Course for R1900 at Retro Music.
The Basic DJ Course is designed for anyone aurally inclined who finds themselves wanting to start DJing and those who've already started and need help with their beat-matching. Though it might be called the basic course, they do teach some advanced concepts like telling the difference between vinyl and pleather.
After having taught DJs of all ages for over a decade, the expert instructors at Retro Music have the technology (and know-how) to make you and your spinning better, stronger, faster. Really, they can teach you how to mix across an entire range of music styles and blend your tracks together seamlessly. They'll guide you step-by-step through the equipment and all but hold your hand through some of the techniques you need for scratching with the best of them. With small groups of students, they ensure that a lot of one-on-one interaction happens during each class and that you don't feel like you're falling through the metaphorical cracks.
During each of the ten one-hour lessons, you'll have your own decks and mixer to perform your auditory shenanigans with because, when it comes to something practical like being a DJ, you want something more than book-knowledge. Extra practice can be scheduled should you want to hone the skills you're learning but don't have the equipment to do it on; it'll cost a bit more, but that's to be expected.
Once your ten lessons are through, there are no doubts that you'll be blending seamless sets and having everybody up and grooving whenever you decide to show off your new schools.
Musical Fact: The first guitar was created in 1764 and was made of the wood from a scrapped Viking sailboat and the tail-hairs of an elderly Bison. It could only play in C-flat.

This sounds like we are being subject to an octupus attack or something similiar and we need to find out where it's coming from to stop it.

Board of Governors honors student Fulbright Scholar
Graduate student Jacob Singleton will be spotlighted by the Missouri State University Board of Governors during its regular meeting Aug. 3. Dr. Kathleen Kennedy, head of the history department, will join him for the recognition.
Singleton, a graduate student pursuing a Master of Arts in European history, was recently awarded a U.S. Student Fulbright award to Germany for 2012-2013. While there, he will also participate in an English teaching assistantship in Sachsen-Anhalt.
The Fulbright Scholar program was designed to immerse individuals into the cultures they are studying and allow for individualized research projects.
"Ultimately, it is my goal to serve as a cultural ambassador within the community that I will be living and working in," said Singleton.
Singleton holds a bachelor's degree in German and in history education.
"History, particularly German history, has interested me since childhood and the ability to study the German language upon becoming a university student not only made historical inquiry a possibility, but was also an immense joy in itself," said Singleton. "I chose to pursue education because it best suited my passion for working with and helping people."
Eligible students endure a rigorous year-long application process with final selection by a presidentially-appointed Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board.
For more information, contact Singleton at email@example.com.

One of the Best Hidden Gems Ever
It's really hard to look at JSRF and say, "man, that looks like a rad game." However, this is exactly what you should do. JSRF takes place in a fictional futuristic Tokyo where the everyone is oppressed by a hostile police force except for a small group of Jet Setters on roller blades with rockets on them (hold on let me finish). The object of the game is obviously to put forth some sort of rebellion against the police.
Visually the game is a stunning piece of work. The city is vibrant, expansive, and full of life. Little in the environment is interactive but really you don't notice while playing. The art direction almost feels like an urban Okami.
The controls feel solid and very tight, which is important when jumping hundreds of feet many stories up in the air. The characters react as you would expect them to as they move around the environments.
Most of the gameplay consists of skating throughout an environment and finding spots where you can "tag" the wall using grafitti. After the player has tagged all of the appropriate spots in the environment a boss will appear and will engage you in some sort of race or battle (usually some combination of the two.) The bosses have enough variety so they never feel like the exact same thing twice.
Sound is another hugely important part of this game. The game is full of funky Hip-Hop beats with a decidedly Japanese slant, which actually sounds way better than that description just did.
Overall the game's charm, wit, and very solid gameplay make this one of the most fun games on the original xbox. It's probably very cheap now used, everyone should check it out.

Back into the 60s for the next few days! (Video)
Looks like the D.C. area is going back into the 60s for the end of January and the start of February.
What a great start to the work week with sunny skies and seasonally average temperatures in the mid to upper 40s. Changes lurk on the horizon but I think you're going to like them. Highs tomorrow and Wednesday should reach the 60 degree mark once again. It appears like it will be the 6th time we've reached that mark in January, though it will be close as some of the models only top out at 59... At least we don't have to worry about -60 degrees like Alaska!
Rain does appear to be likely by Wednesday afternoon or evening as a frontal system approaches the region, but as our 7 day shows, the better chance will be through the day on Thursday as the trailing cold front passes through. Rainfall totals appear like they will be light, with the HPC painting about a quarter to a half of an inch for the D.C. area. It appears that January will end up about 4.5 degrees warmer than normal for the month and about a half of an inch below normal as far as precipitation is concerned.
Biggest question marks in the forecast this week?
The main question appears to be for the weekend at this point, as the latest model set differs significantly on the outcome. Neither of them spell anything in the way of winter precipitation but they do have differing opinions on if the weekend will see rain.

Helping Hurricane Sandy Victims Through Pizza
1 Attachment(s)
From the Wood-Fired Blog:
This story really makes me feel good. I received an email and a photo today from Joseph Pergolizzi, the owner of The Fire Within, our partner in the mobile catering oven market. Weve worked with Joseph for years, and he was in California just a few weeks ago at FB Expo, where he did a great job of overseeing the cooking and hands-on demos.
Joseph was originally from the east coast, and he rallied some friends and four catering pizza oven customers, and they have been making pizza and helping feed people struck by Hurricane Sandy for the past week all because he thinks its the right thing to do. Hey, they use wood, so they dont even need power or gas.
You can send money to the crew by PayPal to Peter Seminara <email@example.com> on his cell phone at 201-264-7822. Thats what we did.
Here is the text from Josephs email:
This past Saturday in Staten Island.
300 pizzas on Saturday. Not only did we bake at a FEMA / donation site we had cars shuttling your pizzas into the areas where people didnt want to leave their homes because of looters.

ACM Awards 2013: John Mayer is Brad Paisley's guitarist for 'Beat This Summer'Add to Favorites | The 49th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards
John Mayer joined Brad Paisley on stage Sunday (April 7) at the 48th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards. The oddly-coupled pair performed Paisley's single, "Beat This Summer."
While Mayer mainly acted as lead guitarist of Paisley's band for the performance, he also went ahead and took his place front-and-center in the spotlight next to Paisley and sung a few bars, including the song's opening line. The guys warmed up by performing for the ACM Fan Jam Saturday.
Mayer recently announced he is planning a new tour after being sidelined from singing due to a chronic condition that started with a granuloma on his vocal cords, and was exacerbated by acid reflux.
While Mayer's voice sounded as smooth as usual next to Paisley's on stage at the ACMs, their guitar sounds clashed like whoa. Particularly toward the end of the tune as the guys jammed out just a tad too long. Here's a clip of the guys dueting with acoustic guitars on Mayer's "Old Love" for CMT in 2010. Brad even forgets some of the lyrics and it still sounds better than their ACM performance.

It provides access to several new and existing functions including: • Wizards for creating routing components and cable wire, covering and electrical component libraries • Library path options • Administration tool for filtering parts • The Route Component Wizard which lets you configure additional types of piping components
: SolidWorks CAD (recent)\PIP-MoveWithTriad.jpg
: Several enhancements improve usability. New triadbased in-line fitting rotation and movement uses the familiar triad and Instant3D-style protractor UI. Upon drag or drop, auto-sizing presents the proper size pipe flange or electrical connector to fit the target connection. Routing has been added to the Isolate capability so you focus on route edits, etc.
: SolidWorks CAD (recent)\PIP-DimOutside.jpg
: Users can now route along existing geometry to guide the route path. Examples include running a pipe route along a structural steel beam or wall segment. This now associates the O.D. of the pipe/tube/cable/conduit with the geometry (not the centerline) and facilitates running pipes through pipe hangers, pipe racks and relative positioning of pipe-to-pipe designs.
: SolidWorks CAD (recent)\PIP-WeldGaps.jpg
: Piping designers can now add visible weld gaps to fitting- to-fitting, pipe-to-pipe and fitting-to-pipe connections. A value for the gap can be entered and that value will be used for all the scenarios mentioned above.

ELISA Test to Identify Autoantigen in Antibiotic-Refractory Lyme Arthritis
Massachusetts General Hospital
posted on 03/15/2012
Technology: A subgroup of patients with Lyme arthritis, a tick-borne spirochetal infection, have persistent synovitis for months or even several years after spirochetal eradication with antibiotic therapy, called antibiotic-refractory Lyme arthritis. This results from infection induced autoimmunity within affected joints. The inventors have identified an autoantigen, platelet derived endothelial cell growth factor (ECGF) in the synovial fluid of affected joints of these patients. An ELISA diagnostic assay has been developed to detect ECGF autoantigen-binding autoantibodies in serum and ECGF protein in synovial fluid, which allows the clinician to appropriately identify these patients and treat this disease. Currently a number of patients are being continuously treated with antibiotics for months and years, by using this diagnostic test they could be possibly switched to an appropriate anti-rheumatic/anti-inflammatory therapy. Applications: 1. A diagnostic assay to rapidly identify chronic lyme disease (CLD) patients with antibiotic refractory Lyme arthritis. 2. More effective treatment regimens can be developed for CLD patients who had prolonged illness and an associated lower quality of life. Advantages: 1. The assay is highly sensitive and specific. 2. Convenient, cost-effective, faster than available PCR Borrelia burgdorferi DNA tests in synovial fluids. 3. Improve treatment to patient; avoid costly and ineffective antibiotic therapy. 4. Tests can be offered by CLIA lab to clinicians. 5. Format of assay: ELISA, agglutination test, direct immunoflourescence assay, indirect immunofluorescence assay, western blot, and the immunoblot.
