Warming climate causing biological changes in the Arctic
National Science Foundation
March 10, 2006
Physical changes--including rising air and seawater temperatures and decreasing seasonal ice cover--appear to be the cause of a series of biological changes in the northern Bering Sea ecosystem that could have long-range and irreversible effects on the animals that live there and on the people who depend on them for their livelihoods. In a paper published March 10 in the journal Science, a team of U.S. and Canadian researchers use data from long-term observations of physical properties and biological communities to conclude that previously documented physical changes in the Arctic in recent years are profoundly affecting Arctic life.
However, "a change from arctic to sub-arctic conditions is under way in the northern Bering Sea," according to the researchers, and is causing a shift toward conditions favoring both water-column and bottom-feeding fish and other animals that until now have stayed in more southerly, warmer sea waters.
As a result, the ranges of region's typical inhabitants can be expected to move northward and away from the small, isolated Native communities on the Bering Sea coast that subsist on the animals.
"We're seeing that a change in the physical conditions is driving a change in the ecosystems," said Jackie Grebmeier, a researcher at the University of Tennessee and one of the paper's co-authors.
Grebmeier said the new report is unusual in that it looks at the potential effects of a changing climate in the Arctic primarily through a life-sciences lens, rather than an analysis of the physics of climate change. "It's a biology driven, integrated look at what's going," Grebmeier said.
Grebmeier is chief scientist for the Western Shelf-Basin Interactions (SBI) research project, which conducted a series of research cruises to observe changes in the carbon balance of the offshore areas of the Alaskan Arctic and their effects on the food chain. The cruises included a number of researchers supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and other federal agencies.
NSF and the Office of Naval Research (ONR) jointly funded SBI.
NSF and NOAA also funded U.S. researchers who contributed data collected by the Bering Strait Environmental Observatory, which annually samples waters in the northern Bering Sea to assess the biological status of productive animal communities on the sea floor.
Those highly productive waters currently act as sponges for carbon dioxide, absorbing quantities of the gas that otherwise would remain in the atmosphere where it would be expected to contribute to warming. But, the researchers say, if the biological trends they observe in the northern Bering Sea persist and are not reversible, the accompanying shift in species and ecosystem structure could have important implications for the role of the sea as a "carbon sink."

Decline of Arctic sea ice increases
Summer Arctic sea ice falls far below average for fourth year, winter ice sees sharp decline, spring melt starts earlier. For the fourth consecutive year, NSIDC and NASA scientists using satellite data have tracked a stunning reduction in arctic sea ice at the end of the northern summer. The persistence of near-record low extents leads the group to conclude that Arctic sea ice is likely on an accelerating, long-term decline.
Arctic Inuit sue U.S. government over global warming pollution
A group of people living in the Arctic have filed a lawsuit against the US government, claiming its climate change policies violate their human rights. The Inuit Circumpolar Conference (ICC) says that by failing to control emissions of greenhouse gases, the US is damaging the livelihoods those living in the Arctic. The group has filed a petition with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights demanding that the US limit its emissions."
Polar bear may be listed as endangered species
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service today announced that it is considering a petition to list the polar bear (Ursus maritimus) as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. Scientists believe polar bear populations are increasingly in danger due to the effects of climate change, specifically receding ice and warming temperatures. Is Global Warming Killing Polar Bears?
"The northern Bering Sea ecosystem is changing as well as that in the southeast," he said. "In the southeast, fish population and (bottom-dweller) changes are happening in the context of a complete loss of sea ice. But in the northern Bering Sea, ecological changes are occurring in the context of shifts in the quality of the sea ice. The ice there is broken and thin compared with ice floes that were more the norm."
Satellite observations and other measurements, for example, combined with observations of native Yupik hunters, confirm that sea ice extent and thickness have become greatly reduced in recent years.
Also, observations by scientists on the SBI research cruises in 2004--scheduled for publication in a separate report in the journal Aquatic Mammals--confirm that walrus mothers were leaving their pups when sea ice the animals normally use as a summer resting platform retreated to the north.
Shifts in fish populations have also been observed, including the appearance much farther north of juvenile pink salmon in rivers that drain into the Arctic Ocean. Salmon feed on pollock, a species that is beginning to appear in larger numbers in the northern Bering Sea, possibly in response to warmer ocean temperatures.
"What we are seeing," Grebmeier concluded, "is a change in the boundary between the sub-Arctic and the Arctic ecosystem. The potential is real for an ecosystem shift that will be felt father north."
But, Overland noted, continued observations are needed to fully understand the scope and potential permanence of the changes. "Both physical and biological indicators need to be watched closely over the next few years to track the persistence of changes in the context of natural variability," he said.

Sochi Medalist Antoine Celebrated In PDC This Weekend
One area town celebrates a native's Olympic success this weekend...
In Prairie du Chien, men's skeleton medalist Matt Antoine will attend a community reception tonight, and serve as grand marshal for the St. Patrick's Day parade tomorrow. Antoine's sport requires him to slide down a course on his stomach at more than 100 miles an hour, with his arms kept to his side. He tells us that he knows a race has gone well, if he doesn't remember much of anything about it.
Antoine says he and his family had a very good time attending the Sochi Olympics, and he thinks the media overplayed the complaints of other athletes there.

hey all,
I'd like to install debian into a non-/ directory on a server that'll nfs
that directory to a bunch of diskless nodes. (booting from floppy or tftp)
Ideally I'd like to do this without having to install on a machine, then
copy the contents of that drive into the server. Something like
dpkg --root=dir --admindir=dir/var/lib/dpkg --instdir=dir etc...
but using deselect (from scratch), or even better, through apt (also starting
from scratch).
I've looked at dselect, and you can set --admindir to point to your
copy of the db, and apt has a --config-file option, to point to a different
sources list. But I don't see anything about moving the root dir.
Is this [easily] possible?

So I'm looking at these two, the Sapphire Toxic R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 With Boost and the Sapphire R9 4GB GDDR5 With Boost & OC (would love to post the links but copy paste is broken on the forums when using IE11...). Would the extra two gigs of ram be something that I don't want to miss out on or should I go with the cheaper of the two that has a faster clocked core and ram?
Best Answer snaphat (Myles Landwehr) , 13 February 2014 - 05:07
So I have this guy coming http://www.sapphiret...sn=&lid=1&leg=0
Yup, you made the right choice given that they were both 270X. Definitely, the higher clock was better in this case -- not the additional RAM. Had it been a choice of different cards, it wouldn't have been so clear cutGo to the full post

Juba — South Sudan's government has approved $92m to facilitate the process for the upcoming 2014 population census that will be conducted prior to the general elections in 2015.
The money was approved per the request presented to the cabinet by the chairperson of the National Bureau of Statistics, Isaiah Chol Aruai, on Friday.
The fresh census will be the first of its kind since South Sudan split from the former Sudan and became independent in July 2011.
The then semi-autonomous region conducted a population and housing census in 2008 under the former Sudan but the 8.3 million population result was contested and rejected by officials in South Sudan who said some areas were not covered by enumerators.
Also a good number of South Sudanese have returned home from the Diaspora after the conduct of the last census.
The 2014 exercise is a constitutional requirement in the new nation as it will be used to determine the number of constituencies that will be contested in the elections.
An accurate population figure will also be used to guide government's plans in service delivery based on a correct population of people in a given area.
The 450-member Juba parliament is currently composed of members elected by South Sudan's constituencies during the 2010 elections plus those that were elected to the then national parliament in Khartoum and later absorbed into the new country's parliament after the split.
The 2008 census also did not include ethnicity in the questionnaire which was demanded by the then South[ern] Sudan in order to know the population of each community in the ethnically diverse country.

Saints Index
Nov 8 - Blessed John
Duns Scotus 1266-1307
During the first decade of the 14th century, the most famous teacher at the
universities of Cambridge, Oxford, and Paris was Father John Duns of Scotland
- the Blessed John Duns Scotus. Not only did he possess one of the keenest and
most penetrating minds the world has ever seen, but he was also a humble Friar
Minor and close follower of St. Francis of Assisi.
Born in 1266 at Littledean in Scotland of an Irish
family which had settled in Scotland, he received his early education from his
Franciscan uncle, Father Elias Duns, in the friary at Dumfries. He was clothed
with the Franciscan habit in 1279 or 1280; and even before his ordination he
taught theology to his brethren (1289-1290). Bishop Oliver Sutton of Lincoln,
England, ordained him a priest on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 1291. After he
had continued his studies at Paris and Oxford for some 8 years, he began to
lecture at Cambridge in 1301 and the following year taught at the Sorbonne,
Paris. At that time Phillip the Fair was engaged in a disgraceful quarrel with
Pope Boniface VIII, and Father John fearlessly defended the spiritual
supremacy of the Vicar of Christ. Thus he incurred the anger of the French
king, and together with his thirty confreres of the Paris friary he was forced
to flee from the country.
Returning to England, Father John then taught at
Oxford for some three years (1303-06), and there obtained the doctor's degree
in 1304. Soon the fame of his genius and learning spread abroad, and students
came in great numbers to sit at the feet of the new teacher. "From almost
every corner of the globe," wrote Rodulphus, "large numbers came to see and
hear him whom they reverenced as an oracle from heaven." The title of the
Subtle Doctor was conferred on Father John; for, as Rodulphus wrote, "there
was nothing so recondite, nothing so abstruse that his keen mind could not
fathom and clarify; nothing so knotty that he, like another Oedipus, could not
unravel; nothing so fraught with difficulty or enveloped in darkness that his
genius could not expound." Another writer declared: "He described the Divine
Nature as if he had seen God; the attributes of the celestial spirits as if he
had been an angel; the felicities of a future state as if he had enjoyed them;
and the ways of Providence as if he had penetrated into all Its
In 1306 Father John returned to Paris; and there
came to be known as the Doctor of Mary, after he had championed her Immaculate
Conception and refuted all the objections of the learned men of the time
against this prerogative of Our Lady. "The perfect Mediator," Father John
pointed out, "must, in some one case, have done the work of mediation most
perfectly, which would not be, unless there is some one person, at least, in
whose regard the wrath of God was anticipated and not merely appeased." In
1854, Pope Pius IX solemnly declared the doctrine of Father John, which had
always been accepted by the ordinary faithful, to be an article of faith; at
the first moment of her conception, Mary was preserved free from the stain of
original sin, in view of the merits of Christ.
The seal of the Church's approval was also placed
on Father John's Christocentric doctrine, when the feast of Christ the King
was instituted in 1925. "Duns Scotus," writes father Gemelli, "conceived the
universe in the form of a gigantic pyramid, built up of every kind of genera
and species, rising upward by degrees, the lower stages united in their most
noble part to the higher. . .'Jesus Christ is the culminating logical point of
creation.'" Thus, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity would have assumed
a human nature even if Adam had not sinned. Because Adam sinned Christ came as
Redeemer of the human race, but He is at the same time King of
In 1307 Father John was sent to Cologne, and there
he died and was buried in the Minoritenkirche or Friars' Church. The date
usually given as that of his death is November 8, 1308; but documents recently
discovered seem to indicate that he lived for some time longer. Father John
was honored as a saint, and his tomb has been visited through the centuries by
large numbers of the faithful. During the Second World War the Friars' Church,
which was formerly in the care of the Conventuals, was demolished; and while
it was being rebuilt, the relics of Blessed John Duns Scotus were kept in a
secret place in the famous cathedral, except for an arm which is now kept in
an ancient sarcophagus in the crypt of the Franciscans' new church in another
part of the city.
ON THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION1. Consider that,
like a true son of St. Francis, Blessed John Duns Scotus was eager to honor
the Mother of God, whom St. Francis made the mother and patroness of his
order. Scotus defended this exceptional privilege, which from the first moment
of her conception kept Mary free from original sin, whereas, it has tainted
the soul of all other human beings. Because of this privilege the serpent,
whose head she was destined to crush, never had any power over Mary. It was a
consolation to the faithful, and to the Franciscan Order in particular, when
this truth was declared a dogma on December 8, 1854. The Supreme Pontiff
extended a great kindness to the Franciscan Order on that occasion. In all
Franciscan churches the faithful can gain a plenary indulgence on this feast,
and all Franciscan priests have the privilege of saying the Mass of the
Immaculate Conception every Saturday throughout the year except on certain
specified days. -- Let us celebrate this glorious privilege of Mary with great
joy throughout the year!2. Consider how we should honor the Immaculate
Conception. We should render her homage and give thanks to God, who in view of
the merits of Christ preserved her from every stain of sin. But we should also
look up to her on account of the great care with which she kept her soul free
from every personal sin, even though she was never assailed by any evil
inclination. Since we are so filled with evil inclinations, should it not be a
matter of particular concern to us to guard against sin? -- What care have we
taken in the past?3. Consider that the Immaculate Conception should be our
special refuge in danger of sin. She who was always free from stain has no
greater desire than that her children may preserve their purity of heart. And
the prince of darkness, whose power was helpless against her at her very
conception, fears her more than the opposition of all men and saints together.
Fly to her in the first moments of temptation. Say devoutly the little
indulgenced prayers: O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have
recourse to you! Sweet Heart of Mary, be my salvation! O my Queen, O my
Mother, remember that I am your own; keep me; guard me, as your property and
possession! -- Whenever you have called on her with a sincere heart, you may
be sure that you have not lost the grace of God. If you faithfully take refuge
with her, she will watch over you until you have reached a place near her in
PRAYER OF THE CHURCHO God, who by the
Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary didst prepare a worthy dwelling place
for Thy Divine Son, we beseech Thee that, as Thou, foreseeing the death of
this Thy Son, didst preserve her from all stain, so Thou wouldst also permit
us, purified through her intercession, to come to Thee. Through the same
Christ our Lord. Amen.

It looks like Range Rover are moving out of their comfort zone and are aiming to take on Mini's new countryman model with the latest offering the Land Rover Evoque. Basically a scaled down version of the Range Rover Sport model / Cross over type thing or whatever you want to call it. Obviously it will have a smaller wheelbase that its big brother and so will be more practical to drive inner city or in built up areas. Pricing is though to be around the £25k mark and this should be the main pull factor for most upwardly mobile trendy young things to part with the Audi or Golf. With the new Nissan Juke and BMW X1 and X4 all being of similar ilk the new Landy will certainly have plenty of competition to face up against. But with a 250 bhp 2.0 Litre petrol turbo engine available and the much smaller size this could well be one of the faster models in the complete line up.
MSG Cars can offer car finance for bad credit on any UK make or model upto 4 years old even if you have been previously turned down.

Primary Topic: Materials-Concrete
Description: As part of the FHWA ASR Development and Deployment Program, nine field trials were conducted across the United States that evaluated mitigation measures applied to concrete structures and pavements already exhibiting ASR -induced distress. The findings from these trials served as the basis for the Volume I report and recommendations. In order to provide a technical underpinning for Volume I and to provide more detailed information on each of the trials (e.g., product types and application rates, treatment methods, monitoring program, etc.), the Volume II report was developed. This document presents the findings and recommendations from the field trials concerned with the treatment of ASR-affected structures.

Vaikom Muhammad Basheer (b. at Thalayolaparambu in Vaikom, 21 January 1908 ; d. at Beypore in Calicut, 5 July 1994) was a Malayalam fiction writer. He was a humanist, independence fighter, novelist and short story writer. He was awarded the Padma Sri in 1982.
Since there was no active independence movement in Travancore or Kochi – being princely states – he went to Kozhikode to take part in the Salt Satyagraha in 1930. His group was arrested before they could participate in the satyagraha. At the police station, they were beaten up and later remanded at Kozhikode sub-jail. Basheer was sentenced to three months imprisonment and sent to Kannur prison. He became inspired by stories of heroism by revolutionaries like Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru, who were executed while he was in Kannur jail. He and about 600 political prisoners then at Kannur were released after the Gandhi-Irwin pact of March 1931. Freed from prison, he organised an anti-British movement and edited a revolutionary journal, Ujjivanam ('Uprising'). A warrant was issued for his arrest and he left Kerala.
Following this, he became a full time writer. During this period, he was near starvation most of the time, He struggled to pay rent and could not find money even for ink, paper and stamps, yet he wrote prolifically, stories, poems and political essays and sent them to various newspapers and publishers, for which he was rarely paid. (This scenario is described in detail in many of his works). He continued to contribute to the Independence movement through his articles for newspapers, most of them attacking Sir C. P. Ramaswami Iyer, the Dewan of Travancore. Basheer was resident in a small single room in a hotel at Ernakulam, which was part of Kochi princely state. The Travancore State Congress was fighting for responsible government , and most of its leaders frequented Ernakulam to escape from the Travancore's police. Basheer and companions were under constant surveillance of spies of both states. Basheer's short-book Hathabhaagyayaaya ente naadu (My ill-fated motherland) and one act play Pattathinte Pekkinaavu (The terrible nightmare of Pattam) were banned in Travancore, and a warrant issued for his arrest if he entered Travancore. His house at Thalayolapparambu was searched and his mother and siblings harassed; Travancore police threatened to break his right arm to prevent his writing.
His works during the period appeared in many publications, of which he kept clippings. After his meeting with M. P. Paul, he was offered lodging at Paul's tutorial college, and also supervised the mess at the college. When Paul's tutorial shifted to Kottayam, Basheer also went to Kottayam. It was during a meeting of writers Sahitheesakhyam at Kottayam that Basheer read his draft of Baalyakaalasakhi.
He then made a career as a writer, initially publishing the works himself and carrying them to homes in order to sell them. He ran two bookstalls in Ernakulam, Circle Bookhouse and later, Basheer's bookstall.
Once India achieved control of its destiny after obtaining Independence from British rule, he showed no further interest in active politics, though concerns over morality and political integrity are present all over his works.
Well into his forties, he surprised many of his acquaintances by marrying a woman much younger than him (Fabi Basheer) and settling down to a life of quiet domesticity with his wife and two children, Anees and Shahina, in Beypore, on the southern edge of Kozhikode.
During this period he also had to suffer from mental illness and was twice admitted to mental sanatoriums. He wrote one of his most famous works, Paaththummaayude aadu (Pathumma's Goat), while undergoing treatment in a mental hospital in Thrissur. The second spell of paranoia occurred after his marriage when he had settled down at Beypore. He recovered both times, and continued his writings.
He died in Beypore, on 5 July 1994.
Basheer is fondly called as Beypore Sultan (Sultan of Beypore). Though his works have been translated to English and eighteen Indian Languages, the peculiarity of the language he uses makes the translations lose a lot of sheen.
Basheer's contempt for grammatical correctness is exemplified by his statement Ninte Lodukkoos Aakhyaadam! ("Your 'silly stupid' grammar!") to his brother, who sermonizes him about the importance of grammar (Paaththummaayude aadu).
His literary career started off with the novel Premalekhanam, a humorous love story between Keshavan Nair – a young bank employee and an upper caste Hindu (Nair) – and Saramma – an unemployed Christian woman. Hidden underneath the hilarious dialogues we can see a sharp criticism of religious conservatism, dowry and similar conventions existing in society. This was followed by the novel Baalyakaalasakhi – a tragic love story between Majeed and Suhra – which is among the most important novels in Malayalam literature in spite of its relatively small size (75 pages), and is commonly agreed upon as his magnum opus work. In his foreword to Baalyakaalasakhi, Jeevithathil Ninnum Oru Aedu (A Page From Life), M. P. Paul brings out the beauty of this novel, and how it is different from run-of-the-mill love stories.
The autobiographical Janmadinam ("Birthday", 1945) is about a writer struggling to feed himself on his birthday. While many of the stories present situations to which the average reader can easily relate, the darker, seamier side of human existence also finds a major place, as in the novel Shabdangal ("Voices", 1947), which faced heavy criticism for violence and vulgarity.
Ntuppuppaakkoraanaendaarnnu ("Me Gran'dad 'ad an Elephant", 1951) is a fierce attack on the superstitious practices that existed among Muslims. Its protagonist is Kunjupathumma, a naive, innocent and illiterate village belle. She falls in love with an educated, progressive, city-bred man, Nisaar Ahamed. Illiteracy is fertile soil for superstitions, and the novel is about education enlightening people and making them shed age-old conventions. Velichathinentoru velicham (a crude translation can be 'brightness is very bright!') one of the most quoted Basheer phrases occurs in Ntuppuppaakkoraanaendaarnnu. People boast of the glory of days past, their "grandfather's elephants", but that is just a ploy to hide their shortcomings.
Mathilukal ("Walls") deals with prison life in the pre-independence days. It is a novel of sad irony set against a turbulent political backdrop. The novelist falls in love with a woman sentenced for life who is separated from him by insurmountable walls. They exchange love-promises standing on two sides of a wall, only to be separated without even being able to say good-bye. Before he "met" Naraayani, the loneliness and freedomlessness of prison life was killing Basheer; but when the orders for his release arrive he loudly protests, "Who needs freedom? Outside is an even bigger jail." The novel was later made into a film (MATHILUKAL, 1989) by Adoor Gopalakrishnan with Mammootty playing Basheer.
Sthalaththe Pradhaana Divyan, Aanavaariyum Ponkurishum, Muccheettukalikkarante makal and Ettukaali Mammoonju featured the life of real life characters in his native village of Thalayolaparambu (regarded as Sthalam in these works).

Hello (1st post besides introduction! yay!)!!!
I want to ask if anyone can help me with the reading order of BW chapter for the manga. Specially I was trying to figure where those two flashback chaps (links below) are placed in the story. Thanks in advance! If the definite response is posted, I'll edit this first post to make it a reading guide.

Sorry Guys…
We've had a lot going on lately so there's going to be a slight delay with the latest page. It will be up at some point this week and then we'll be back on schedule with another new page next Monday.
We're really sorry… we've been trying to stay ahead of all the craziness, but it finally caught up to us. We had to admit to ourselves that there was just no way we were going to have it up today.
Alright. So, I just have it in my head that a lot of you are immediately going to hate this latest development. I wish I could say more about it, but since we just met these three I obviously can't do that. I'm afraid I'll have to pull the 'ol "wait and see" card with this one.
It's not random, though. When I started mapping out this storyline and figuring out what was going to happen to Ed & Bill and Alyssa & Beth once they parted ways, this was a big part of the plan. I guess all I'm saying is give it a few weeks before you start sending me angry emails telling me how stupid these kids are. =-)
I know it can be frustrating trying to take in a serialized story like this over a long period of time, but I swear this is all going to connect.
200 Pages!
I don't want to be too self-congratulatory here, but I suppose this is something of a milestone for us. Even looking back over the last few years worth of work, it still feels like EMW is just a baby in the webcomic community. So it's strange to consider how many comics we know of that started after us and have already disappeared. It's been a trip and we've learned so much since that awkward (and rather embarrassing) first strip we posted back in January of 2011. And we're still learning. We're constantly trying to figure out how to improve all of this.
So thank you to everyone that's continued reading and continued supporting us. It's been a lot of fun exchanging emails with some of you (even the angry ones) and watching traffic to this site steadily grow. I'm not sure getting this far was even conceivable when we first started doing this and your interest in this silly little adventure is a huge part of what's kept us going.
Thanks again. 200 pages. Damn. I'll only pat myself on the back one time. Then it's back to work.

Open source this: The Architecture for Humanity Advisory Board.
Every two years we renew our advisory board and we are weeks away from the 2009 crop of advisers. Unlike the main board this is a gathering of folks that help to broaden the reach of Architecture for Humanity as well as bring in support in all the areas which our work affects or is influenced by.
Last week in an internal meeting we began to put together a shortlist of who we thought would be helpful to have on the board. Innocently I posted the same question on facebook today and within an hour received a dozen names. While we are going through this process I felt we should ask our readers who they felt should be on the panel. So shoot us your suggestion by December 27th 2008 (or add a comment below) and I'll pose it to the main board for inclusion.
One more thing. This is our 10th year so let's think big.
All of us at Architecture for Humanity
The following have currently been suggested:
Rick Fedrizzi, CEO, USGBC
Fareed Zakaria, Journalist, CNN
Frank Almeda
Jeff Christian, Architect
Carl Bass, CEO, AutoDesk

Toshiko Mori, Architect
Renzo Piano, Architect
Pierre Sartoux

I decided that I would take two paths on this assignment: a more traditional path where I knew the ingredients would work well, and work well in a cookie as far as taste, and a less traditional method with a more unconventional taste.
Cookie One: Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana cookies. I started with a peanut butter cookie base: peanut butter, flour, brown sugar, egg, etc. I decided to leave the milk out because when I mashed up the bananas with my hands (four of them), they almost became liquified. Even leaving the milk out there was too much liquid in the dough, so I had to add an extra cup and a half of flour!
I rolled the dough into balls thinking that since they were so moist, they would flatten out when I baked them. After baking for about 7 minutes, I checked the cookies and they were not flattening like I had hoped, so I pressed each cookie with a fork. Some of them didn't flatten like I was thinking they would, because they were so hot. Next time, I would press them before baking them at all!
I continued to bake them for about another 2 to 3 minutes, let them cool, and added the frosting.
The "frosting" on these cookies is a mixture of Nutella and peanut butter (where the chocolate comes into play).
Cookie Two: Mojito cookies
For the mojito cookies, I chose to use a simple sugar cookie base recipe. Flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar and egg were used, as well as mojito flavored drink mix and lime juice. The cookies came out looking just like sugar cookies; but definitely not tasting the same! They have a sort of zing to them. For the frosting, I used a simple vanilla frosting and mixed in the mojito flavoring as well as more lime juice. The garnish on the top is a mint leaf, to carry on the theme of the mojito.
I decided to not substitute any ingredients, but to just add ingredients to the recipe, and it ended up working pretty well!
Overall, I was very surprised by this assignment. I was expecting to have an extremely difficult time, and as it was definitely not an easy task, I didn't end up totally butchering either recipe! (Or burning any cookies ;)).

I've been practicing texturing on and off for a couple of years now and I've never had every good results. I have a few basic questions to ask so I can get consistant decent results.
1- How large should the texture template be?
2- How important is the dpi, what setting? 72dpi? 300dpi?
3- Why the bloody hell everytime I try to use paths in photoshop, the lines are never smooth?
Any good tutorials out there?

Interesting fact alert! The first ever Golf GTD premiered in 1982, a year in which Bucks Fizz's Land of Make Believe spent two weeks at the top of the singles charts.
And it might have seemed like 'make believe': a diesel GTI? Well, yes. And today, Volkswagen has revealed the new one, based on the new Golf Mk VII, and headed for the Geneva Motor Show next month.
See more pics of the new Volkswagen Golf GTD here
The frugally minded among you might be interested to know that this new Volkswagen Golf GTD is capable of returning some 68mpg on the combined cycle with emissions pegged at just 109g/km of CO2. But that's not interesting, is it? What's interesting is the fact this new Golf GTD is the most powerful GTD...in the world.
It's got a 180bhp 2.0-litre diesel engine with 280lb ft of torque, which Volkswagen reckons is good for a 0-62mph time of 7.5 seconds and a top speed of 143mph. OK, so it's not going to set your pants on fire, but they might certainly become very warm. Consider the old Golf GTI had 207bhp and went from 0-62mph in 7.2 seconds, and we declared that car ruddy good indeed.
It's front-wheel-drive, obviously, and you can choose a six-speed manual gearbox or Vee-Dub's rather excellent DSG six-speeder. On the outside, Volkswagen has decorated the GTD with smoked LED rear lights, chromed exhaust pipes, 17-in GTD wheels, a diffuser, and a large roof spoiler. Underneath, we're told there's sports suspension too. That's nice.
Inside, you get the classic tartan pattern seats, a sports steering wheel, GTD trim strips and instrument cluster, automatic climate control, 'ParkPilot' and a half decent stereo. And you can have it in any colour you like, so long as those colours are red, black or white.
It'll go on sale in Germany for just under £26k (€29,350). The last GTD we drove lacked the bite of a proper hot hatch - reckon VW has got it right with this one?

The Houston Astros have signed left-hander Erik Bedard to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training. The Astros announced the deal Monday. The 33-year-old Bedard started on opening day for Pittsburgh last season. He went 7-14 with a 5.01 ERA in 24 starts. The Pirates released him on Aug. 28 while he was tied for the most losses in the majors. Bedard walked 56 in 125 2-3 innings. He did, however, strike out a team-record seven straight batters against St. Louis. Bedard is 63-64 lifetime in nine seasons with Baltimore, Seattle, Boston and Pittsburgh. He went 13-5 with a 3.16 ERA for the Orioles in 2007, striking out 221 in 182 innings. He has not made 25 starts in any year since then and has been beset by injuries, missing the 2010 season because of shoulder trouble.

The Evangelical Covenant Church began ministering in Thailand in 1971 in Udon Thani, located in the Northeast (Isaan) region of the country. From the beginning, Covenant work has emphasized a holistic approach, addressing both the physical and the spiritual needs of the Thai people. And all of its church-related ministry has centered on presenting the Gospel in a contextualized way that fits the Thai society.
The work has since expanded to other locations throughout Thailand (circled in red on the map), under the direction of several foundations and other NGOs - click on a location for more details.

Cast: Naseeruddin Shah, Madhuri Dixit, Arshad Warsi, Huma Qureshi, Vijay Raaz, Manoj Pahwa
Director Abhishek Choubey
Stars: ** 1/2
'Ishqiya' gave us a couple of lovable rogues with a lilting Bhopali brogue, and a tricky leading lady in the wickedest 'cheent ka blouse' and a startling line in 'gaalis'. Director Abhishek Choubey's debut film had an arresting swagger and a distinct voice, and characters—full-blooded, full-bodied– that stayed with you much after the film was over.
The sequel has the same two losers, a little worn and weathered, trying their luck in another town, and two new ladies, holding out the promise of one-and-half-times the fun. Fun it is for some time, and then it starts to slide. This one should have been a humdinger, but it falls short.
'Dedh Ishqiya' opens with a great mood, and a 'tameezdaar, ghumaavdaar' Urdu `lehja' which has vanished from the movies, with Naseeruddin and Arshad appearing to be in as much fine nick as in the first film. And for a while, it all goes swimmingly. The made-up town of Mahmudabad takes you back to a time when there were `nawaabs', and 'nazaakat', and a perennial `mushaaira' swarming with potential poets desirous of grasping the hands of beautiful women.
It's got crackling atmosphere, this town in which our Khaalu ( Naseer) and Babban ( Warsi) arrive, both as usual on the run. The centre of action is in a ramshackle `haveli' whose run-downness hints at how grand it used to be, especially now that its resident, the still-lovely, gracefully ageing Begum Para ( Dixit), has decided to choose a partner. Khaalu, all done up in a rented `sherwani' wants to be that man, and not only because he sees Begum Para as his meal ticket, but also because there is history between them.
Nothing is simple, though, as twisted feelings simmer below the surface. The Begum's constant companion, the much younger Muniyaa (Huma Qureshi) is busy plotting a kidnapping, and keeping the lusty Babban at bay. But the real competition comes from a love-lorn Jaan Mohammad (Vijay Raaz), who has deep feelings for the Begum. The second half dips, and it all becomes a bit too languid, even if things rev up towards the end.
There is much to be liked in the film, and I wish all of it had been as good as the scintillating bits. The trouble is not just with the pace. Some of the lines, terrific as they are, seem to be added in just so that the characters can revel in their own perfect Urdu delivery. And the ladies are a problem. Neither Madhuri Dixit nor Huma Qureshi bring what it needs to be just right for this film: the former is still a dancer non pareil, and …continued »

text: The NY Times recently held a "debate" titled The Farm Bill, Beyond the Farm. I put debate in quotes because there weren't any pieces that directly opposed each other. Instead, each discussed different parts of the farm bill so we didn't get to see any differences in opinion on the same issues. This group of eight activist-writers includes two lawyers, a social worker, an economist, and a lobbyist. One has a background in biology and ag economics.

Juilliard's 'New Dances: Edition 2012' Opens Next Wednesday
Juilliard Dance premieres four newly-choreographed works by choreographers Camille A. Brown (1st-Year Class), Emery LeCrone (2nd-Year Class), Susan Shields (3rd-Year Class), and Jarek Cemerek (4th-Year Class) in this year's New Dances: Edition 2012, under the direction of Artistic Director Lawrence Rhodes. All Juilliard Dance Division students perform on the program, and they have been working closely with these four innovative choreographers as they create new works on each of the Dance Division's classes.
The five performances take place on Wednesday, December 12; Thursday, December 13; Friday, December 14; and Saturday, December 15, all at 8 PM; and Sunday, December 16 at 3 PM.
FREE tickets are available at the Janet and Leonard Kramer Box office at Juilliard (155 West 65th Street). Box Office hours are Monday through Friday from 11 AM to 6 PM. For further information, call (212) 769-7406 or go to http://events.juilliard.edu.
Camille A. Brown collaborates with composer Jonathan Melville Pratt, who is writing original music for her Juilliard commission entitled, Stages, for the 1st-Year Class. The two also worked on City of Rain (2010) and Mr. TOL E. RAncE (2012). The title of Mr. Pratt's score is Bind. Ms. Brown's work is about the emergence of a new generation, and she is using the inspiration of a whirlwind to depict their emergence – the power of the wind. She says: "Whirlwind can also be translated into an idea. When things enter the space might be expected, but how they do might not be."

WINDER - Barrow County attorney Angela Davis filed an injunction in Barrow County Superior Court against Auburn's November 2006 annexations.The injunction seeks to halt the annexation process until a December 2006 lawsuit filed by Barrow County against Auburn is heard in court. In November, Auburn forcibly annexed several land islands totaling about 100 acres. An island is created when a city annexes around a patch of county, finally enclosing it on all sides. State law allows cities to annex those islands, whether or not the property owner wants to join the city. The annexations were unpopular with land owners, especially those with large acreage or who had lived on their unincorporated Barrow County property for generations. Some owners annexed into Carl, which has no property taxes, before Auburn could get them. On Dec. 14, Barrow County's attorney filed a lawsuit against Auburn in Barrow County Superior Court, claiming proper procedure had not been followed in the annexations. Barrow County officials are asking a judge to investigate Auburn's annexations going back to 1947. Commissioner Roger Wehunt said he sympathizes with both Auburn and the affected land owners. "I think it should be done, I believe in cleaning up the city's boundaries," Wehunt said. "But I don't believe in taking people in who don't want it and creating a hardship on them. Like Leroy (Evans) owns 50-some acres. Those property taxes will hit him in the pocket. We owe it to our citizens to protect them." Neither Mayor Harold Money nor Auburn's City Council Members were available for comment Monday.

Electronic Compact Shelving
How to Use Electronic Compact Shelving
Locate the range you need to access.
To operate the shelving, the light on the black control panel must be green. If it is not, go to the panel with the red light and press the Stop/Reset button.
All of the ranges in the shelving group you are accessing will light up together after pressing the Stop/Reset button.
Each shelving group has a stationary range on both sides of the movable shelving. Stationary ranges are solid wood and do not have black control panels on them.
PLEASE REMEMBER: Before moving any shelving, check the aisles to make sure they are empty.
When you are ready to move the shelving, press the appropriate green arrow on the aisle you want to access. You do not have to move each range separately; the system will move multiple ranges for you.
Safety and Stopping the Shelving
There are 3 ways to stop the shelves from moving:
Press the Stop/Reset button
Break the beam of light by walking in or out of the aisle
Break the beam of light on the range with the red and white stripe on the bottom
If you are in an aisle and it begins to move, simply turn sideways to face the opening of the aisle and stand with your feet apart. The shelving will stop moving when the range with the red and white stripe touches the side of your foot. NOTE: Using the side of your foot ensures the beam will be broken and stop the shelving, please do not use the toe of the foot because there may be a gap.
Please check with the Reference Librarian on duty if you have any problems or questions.
Thank you.
