Nov. 18, 2004
WORCESTER, Mass. - Holy Cross head men's basketball coach Ralph Willard announced today that four student-athletes have signed national letters of intent to attend Holy Cross and play for the Crusaders. Colin Cunningham (Memphis, Tenn.), Lawrence Dixon (Columbia, Md.), Greg McCarthy (Mansfield, Mass.) and Alex Vander Baan (Whitinsville, Mass.) will join the Holy Cross program in the fall of 2005.
"We are very excited to have Colin, Lawrence, Greg and Alex joining our program," said Willard. "We believe they make up a very solid class, and they should help us replace the four seniors who will be graduating at the conclusion of the upcoming season."
Cunningham is a 6-foot-7, 195-pound guard / forward, who has played at White Station High School for head coaches Terry Tippett and William Warren. Last season, he helped lead his team to an overall record of 39-2 and their third straight Tennessee Scholastic School Athletic Association Class AAA championship. Cunningham was also selected to the 2004 Class AAA All-Metro Memphis team, and earned honorable mention All-State honors from the Associated Press.
Willard on Cunningham: "Colin is an outstanding student-athlete from one of the premier high school programs in the state of Tennessee (White Station), where he has been an integral part of two state championship teams. He is a good shooter, an exceptional passer, and has good size for a Division I guard."
Dixon is a 6-foot-5, 200-pound guard / forward, who plays at Archbishop Spalding High School in Severn, Md., for head coach Mike Glick. During the 2003-2004 season, he averaged 8.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game, while shooting 52.5 percent from the field and 39.1 percent from three-point range. Dixon helped lead Archbishop Spalding to an overall record of 29-8 last year, with the team capturing the Maryland Interscholastic Athletic Association A Conference championship.
Willard on Dixon: "Lawrence is an outstanding guard from a nationally respected high school program (Archbishop Spalding). He is a winner who does all of the little things to make his teammates better, and plays both ends of the floor well."
McCarthy is a 6-foot-10, 210-pound center, who plays at Xaverian Brothers High School in Westwood, Mass., for head coach Alex Salachi. During the 2003-2004 season, McCarthy led his team to an overall record of 13-7 and a trip to the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association Division I South tournament. He also played for the Boston Blazers AAU team, which captured the 2004 Boston Shootout title.
Willard on McCarthy: "Greg is a good athlete, who at 6-foot-10 has the size and athleticism to become an excellent shot blocker and rebounder. He has a huge up-side, which should develop with strength and maturity."
Vander Baan is a 6-foot-8, 195-pound forward, who plays at Whitinsville Christian School for head coach Rick Martin. Last year, he averaged 19.2 points and 15.0 rebounds per game, while leading his team to an overall record of 24-3, the Dual Valley Conference title and a trip to the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association Division III state semifinals. Vander Baan is also a member of the cross country team at Whitinsville Christian, and won the championship race at the Dual Valley Conference meet and the Blackstone Valley Invitational.
Willard on Vander Baan: "Alex is an outstanding student-athlete who has the basketball ability, drive and character to become a fine player in our program. He has great versatility on the court, which will enable him to play multiple positions for us."
The Crusaders, who are coming off a 13-15 season, open the 2004-2005 campaign on Saturday, Nov. 20, when they play at Boston University at 1:00 p.m. Holy Cross won the Patriot League championship in 2001, 2002 and 2003, advancing to the NCAA Tournament each of those three years.

Will this iRig mic work with ipod touch 4th gen & the SpeechTrans Ultimate Powered by Nuance?
I just bought SpeechTrans Ultimate app and it says I need to use a microphone headset to make it work. Wish I knew that before purchasing the app or the ipod. Wondered if this would work better since there are two people talking back and forth thru this app.

If the SpeechTrans Ultimate software supports the standard Apple Headset with Mic, it will work with this microphone - which effectively replace the 'microphone' component of any headphones, with it's own dedicated unit.

Re: Drumming for Popular Artists
Network, network, network.
It is rare an popular artist hold an open to the public audition, although on occasion it does happens. Usually someone in the band, or the management, compiles a list of people they either know, or have been recommended to them by people they trust, and those are the ones who get told when and where the auditions are being held.
Around Los Angeles, you often see name musicians playing small local gigs in-between tours. I used to think it was how they blew off steam, because they can play different things than they do on the name artists tour. But recently, I realized, no, it's how they network. You do a small show with a name bassist or name guitarists, or whatever, and that's how (maybe) your name gets thrown into the hat for the next major thing.
Of the people I know who have gotten some larger tours, it's because they spent years and years doing smaller tours and sessions, building a name, until they got into a position for a major audition.
You never really know though.
Back in the 70's, when Mick Feetwood was looking for a new guitarist for Fleetwood Mac, Mick was visiting a recording studio, and someone said, hey, let me play this track we recorded the other day, and Mick said, "who is that guitarist? I want him for the band" And that's how Lindsey Buckingham joined Fleetwood Mac and which lead to selling some 100 million records over the next 15 years.

MATE vs Cinnamon
Read an updated version of this article at Your choice: Cinnamon or MATE.
MATE and Cinnamon are two recent additions to the list of desktop environments and window managers available for Linux and BSD distributions. You see, in the free software/open source community, there is nothing like too many options. The more, it appears, the better.
The aim of this article is not to present a point-by-point comparison of the two desktop environments, but to present a general overview, so a new user has a top-level idea of what they are.
MATE is a fork of GNOME 2, started as a result of widespread dissatisfaction with GNOME 3. Cinnamon also arose out of widespread dissatisfaction with the default GNOME 3 interface, but unlike MATE, it is atop the GNOME 3 code-base. In effect, it is the same GNOME technology, but with an interface that is just like that of GNOME 2, or the type of desktop environment that we are used to. Another way to put that, is that MATE is old technology, while Cinnamon is new technology.
While I do not particularly like the default GNOME 3 interface, it is a major improvement over GNOME 2 and, therefore, over MATE. Both are works in progress and have a similar desktop layout. They are what most people expected GNOME 3 to be. Rather than presenting users with a new and, to some, an unsuitable-for-desktop computing interface, MATE and Cinnamon offer a familiar environment to many. Whether that environment is better than the new one depends on the individual and what he/she is comfortable with.
If you have not used with MATE or Cinnamon, the best way to decide if they are worth using, is to evaluate them yourself. That means downloading Live images and running them on your computer – without installing them, of course. The distribution that makes it easy to do that is Linux Mint.
The most recent release of that distribution made Live environments of a MATE and a Cinnamon edition available for download. You can get both here.
Meanwhile, the following screen shots provide an idea of what the desktops looks like.

MATE's desktop with the menu showing the Favorites column.

I think Linux Mint is much better than Ubuntu….it has all the built in codes.
Both Cinnamon and MATE are awesome on Quantal Quetzal, however MATE has a very slight edge in performance over Cinnamon, and I tend to prefer its workflow more as well, however Cinnamon's workflow is great too.
Every screenshot I've seen of Gnome3, or Cinnamon, or Mate… All have the large (excessively large) slab of choices for the main/application menu. What I'm curious about, is which, if any of them, can disable that slab and give individual menu choices like classic Gnome2?
Fewer selections and more organization leads to more efficient usage. As a visual learner I tend to organize/recognize/recall things by location and position. When you just throw all the choices on screen at once, it actually slows the recognition process. At least for me.
Is there any option to enable classic menu views?
You can get the classic Gnome2 menus using Cinnamon and applets from cinnamon.linuxmint.com, or even better, here
MATE is effectively Gnome2 forked so everything you used to do with Gnome2 you can do with MATE. The screenshots above are not of MATE, but Linux Mint with MATE and the Mint Menu. My first job with Mint, I do like Mint, is rip out the Mint Menu and replace with the Applications | Place | System menu.
Well, I tried putting the GNOME 2-style double-panel configuration in Cinnamon, and I guess 'cause of my theme or something, it didn't look very good, however since MATE is literally a rebadged GNOME 2, I assume you can configure it the same way as GNOME 2.
However on Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Arch, etc, MATE comes configured in the default GNOME 2 double-panel configuration, separate menus and all.
This is how I got my MATE set up currently. http://dfx4509b.deviantart.com/art/Quantal-Quetzal-MATE-clean-365940060
I'm wondering if there is a way to configure Mint to allow the selection or either Cinnamon or Mate user interfaces for one installation of Linux Mint. Would it be better to have Cinnimon and Mate user interfaces have its own installation copy of Mint?
When I first tried cinnamon I liked it but found it unstable and buggy. I dislike Gnome 3 and Unity though I did persevere with them both for a few years. The latest iteration of cinnamon that comes with Mint 14 is cinnamon matured and I recommend it. If you like the old Gnome 2 style try the latest version of XFCE it's very like Gnome 2. With regard to Fedora apparently there is going to a MATE spin of Fedora 18, I look forward to it and may go back to Fedora then, if it be true.
You can also configure Xfce to look and feel like GNOME 2 as well.
Just tried that option. Somehow when I installed a stuff for xfce, lots of other stuff where installed and I didn't look at exactly what it was. When I retarted my computer, I had a wtf debian like start menue and even with the right passwd, it was impossible to log in. So here am I this morning, using system rescue cd for cleaning the mess. Shame for xcfe, 'cause it was so fast to run, so quick… But I think either I should have stayed on xfce out of the box, either choosing a distro based 100% on xfce, 'cause for me, it seems it's not very matured…
Xfce has been around since 1996.

Beam absorbers play an important role both in electron cyclotron heating systems at high power and in millimeter-wave diagnostics that need a low level of stray or reflected power. In the first case short- and long-pulse loads are used, whose back-reflection can be kept within a few percent with proper techniques. In the second case, absorbers or scramblers are envisaged, to be put in hostile environments. At Istituto di Fisica del Plasma in Milan, a number of calorimetric loads have been developed, adopting several techniques for overall reflectivity reduction, which are suitable for beam sinking with calorimetric capability. They achieve a low overall reflectivity and high-power capability by a properly chosen power distribution in the absorbing wall provided by a dispersing mirror, by a smooth geometrical shape, by heat-resistant absorbing coatings of optimized thickness, and by accurate trapping of most of the escaping radiation with preload structures. Fundamental, when it becomes impossible to diffuse the incoming beam by the mirror alone, mostly because of side lobes at large angles, is the use of a newly developed phase-scrambling surface presented in this paper. It provides the necessary spreading, complementing all the other techniques into a set that can be helpful in designing millimeter-wave systems and diagnostics, in order to reduce spurious or unwanted signals.

FPM leader Michel Aoun speaks during a press conference in Rabieh, Tuesday, Feb. 12, 2013. (The Daily Star/Charbel Nakhoul, HO)
BEIRUT: Gulf states protested Monday what they described as MP Michel Aoun's "irresponsible remarks" on events in Bahrain, via a letter to the Lebanese Embassy in Saudi Arabia.
According to the Emirates News Agency, Secretary-General of the Gulf Corporations Council Abdel-Latif bin Rashid al-Zayani handed Lebanon's Ambassador Munir Anouti a letter on behalf of Gulf countries contesting Aoun's remarks.
"[In the letter] the GCC countries expressed their severe condemnation of the irresponsible remarks that MP Michel Aoun ... made to Al-Alam television on Feb. 12, 2013, when he spoke about the internal situation of the Kingdom of Bahrain in a misleading and harmful manner," the agency said.
The letter added that the comments of Aoun, Hezbollah's primary Christian ally in Lebanon, reflected "a vision, interests and ties that have become known to everyone" and contradict the reality in the small kingdom.
Aoun, addressing an Iranian TV station last week, criticized the international community and the Arab League for its lack of support of Bahraini protesters, calling their predicament an "injustice."
Days after the interview with Aoun, who heads a bloc of 10 ministers in the 30-member Cabinet, Bahrain summoned Lebanon's charge d'affaires and requested clarification.
In a bid to avoid a row between Lebanon and Bahrain, Prime Minister Najib Mikati phoned his Bahraini counterpart Sheikh Khalifa bin Salman Sunday to clarify his country's position.
During the conversation, Mikati underscored that Lebanon would not interfere in Bahrain's internal affairs and stressed that Aoun's remarks did not reflect the government's official stance.
Mikati said Saturday that Lebanon was committed to the "Baabda Declaration," an agreement among the country's rival political parties to distance the country from regional and international conflicts in order to avert the negative repercussions of regional tensions and crises.
In its letter, the GCC said the Lebanese lawmaker's remarks contradicted the "sisterly and historic ties" between Lebanon and the council and "represent narrow interests and personal ambitions that do not serve Lebanon's interest or the Arab community's."
Aoun told a local radio station Saturday that as an MP he had the right to state his opinion, and that his position did not reflect that of the government.
"We in Lebanon have the freedom to express our opinion, particularly as MPs. The government has nothing to do with the issue," he said.
In the letter, the GCC also stressed the council's support for the reform program of Bahrain's King Hamad bin Issa al-Khalifa, praising his instructions to continue with national dialogue in the Arab country.

About POGO's Federal Contractor Misconduct Database (FCMD)
The government awards contracts to companies with histories of misconduct such as contract fraud and environmental, ethics, and labor violations. In the absence of a centralized federal database listing instances of misconduct, the Project On Government Oversight (POGO) is providing such data. We believe that it will lead to improved contracting decisions and public access to information about how the government spends hundreds of billions of taxpayer money each year on goods and services.

Exxon Mobil
Exxon Corp. v. Alabama (Natural Gas Royalties)
Date: 05/12/2005 (Date of Decision)
Misconduct Type: Defective Pricing
Enforcement Agency: State/Local
Contracting Party: None
Court Type: Civil
Amount: $121,000,000
Disposition: Judgment Against Defendant
Synopsis: "In December 2000, a jury in the 15th Judicial Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Alabama, returned a verdict against the Corporation in a dispute over royalties in the amount of $88 million in compensatory damages and $3.4 billion in punitive damages in the case of Exxon Corporation v. State of Alabama, et al. The verdict was upheld by the trial court in May 2001. In December 2002, the Alabama Supreme Court vacated the $3.5 billion jury verdict. The case was retried and in November 2003, a state district court jury in Montgomery, Alabama, returned a verdict against Exxon Mobil Corporation. The verdict included $63.5 million in compensatory damages and $11.8 billion in punitive damages. In March 2004, the district court judge reduced the amount of punitive damages to $3.5 billion." In November 2007, the Alabama Supreme Court struck down the punitive damages award. The court ruled that the state did not prove that Exxon Mobil committed fraud and was therefore not entitled to punitive damages. The court also reduced compensatory damages to $51.9 million plus interest, which amounted to an additional $70 million.

editorialBy Editorial
The launch, by government, of a Shs25 billion venture capital fund to support youth entrepreneurship is a useful initiative. Uganda has one of the highest youth unemployment figures in the world with job-creation lagging significantly below the 300,000 Ugandans who join the labour force every year.
Combined with a majority young population and one of the highest population growth rates in the world, the need to create opportunities for Uganda's young, restless and unemployed cannot be gainsaid.
However, while the youth venture capital fund is a good start, it is a small drop in a raging ocean of economic inequality and uncertainty. For starters, while the Shs25 billion might appear to be a useful sum, is less than what government plans to spend on hosting the upcoming Inter Parliamentary Union for only a few days.
While loans of up to Shs25 million will be made available to qualifying youths, the figure, in real terms, represents a per-capita allocation of about Shs150,000 to each of the youths who will join the labour force this year - hardly a game-changing sum.
Similar loan schemes like Entandiikwa and Bonna Bagaggawale have failed because they were political vote-winning schemes and not economic ventures. They carried an in-built high political price of going after defaulters and it is not clear whether the risk-management measures built into the latest scheme, such as partnership with more ruthless commercial banks, will trump political considerations when the loans are due around the next election.
While the venture capital fund will address, to a small extent, the lack of access to capital, more obstacles remain to enterprise and doing business in Uganda. Some of them, such as inadequate power and transport infrastructure, are big-ticket items, which require massive regional investments over many years.
Others, such as the high cost of registering businesses or property and the enforcement of contracts can be reformed through overnight legislation and the cutting of bureaucratic red tape and would unshackle the entrepreneurial spirit of Uganda's youths.
Having overseen the Uganda Registration Services Bureau before joining cabinet, and having run a start-up business for many years, Finance Minister Maria Kiwanuka will need no conversion to the need to reduce the cost of doing business. She will also realise that those reforms are easier to push through than find money from political pork-barrel projects to grow the venture capital fund.

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals

The viral, promoting Sky1's 20-year partnership with The Simpsons, features clips of the cartoon characters partying to the song Begin by Madcon, which is used in the original ad. The spoof was created in-house.
Shots of the Simpsons playing instruments, dancing and swimming, bear striking similarities to the shots from the original spot, in which celebrities including David Beckham, Missy Elliott and Katie Perry celebrate at a raucous house party.
Since the spoof gained a significant online following, Adidas has decided to partner with Sky requesting that it run the spoof on TV alongside its original "house party" spot, which was created by Sid Lee.
The double ad broke during Sky1's showing of 24 this week, and it is understood that Sky will run the pair of ads again this weekend.

Americans rushed out to shop as frigid weather lifted in March, propelling retail sales at the fastest pace in a year and a half.
The gauge from the Commerce Department surged 1.1% last month from February in its biggest leap since September 2012. Sales boomed 3.8% from March 2013.
The strong sales, which beat economists' expectations for a 1% increase, bolstered hopes that the economy would continue to gain momentum after struggling through an especially harsh winter.
"One month doesn't answer all the questions, and it's not like we have all-over-the-place exploding growth," said NPD Group analyst Marshal Cohen. "But we're beginning to see that the recovery is no longer segmented — it's broader."
Consumer spending accounts for more than two-thirds of economic output, making retail sales a strong indicator of the nation's overall economic health. But other reports this month also signal a rebound.
Employers created a net 192,000 new jobs in March, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which said that all private sector jobs that were lost in the downturn have been recovered. Initial jobless claims hit their lowest level in nearly seven years.
The International Monetary Fund projects that global economic growth will rise 3.6% this year in the strongest increase since 2011, led by expansion in the U.S. Small-business owners surveyed by the National Federation of Independent Business believe their sales are set to increase.
The government also revised the anemic 0.3% improvement previously reported for February retail sales to a much stronger 0.7% upswing.
Sales had fallen 0.7% in January and 0.3% in December after growing steadily for several months. The spirit of spending slipped away during the winter, analysts said, because consumers were burdened by unexpected heating costs and holiday debt, and were daunted by a series of storms.
But March brought tax refunds and the first tendrils of spring. Pent-up demand pushed shoppers into long-neglected stores.
"We are inclined to view March strength as part of a normalization from a very weak winter, particularly December and January," Credit Suisse analysts wrote in a note to clients Monday.
Auto dealers gave retail sales a substantial boost, with business revving up 3.4% from February. Excluding the category, which can be volatile, retail sales rose 0.7% in the best showing since February 2013.
After removing the effect of vehicles, gas stations and restaurants, sales increased 0.8% month to month and 1.6% from the year-earlier period.
Nearly every type of business enjoyed a sales increase, except electronics and appliance retailers, which suffered a 1.6% decline.
Online sales got a 1.7% lift from February. Building materials and garden equipment, a sector that historically perks up in warmer temperatures, saw sales advance 1.8%.
But some analysts were suspicious of the upturn, noting that many companies have voiced pessimism in recent months.
Electronics retailer RadioShack Corp., where fourth-quarter revenue slid 19%, said in March that it would close up to 1,100 underperforming stores. Office supply giant Staples Inc. said it plans to close up to 225 North American stores.
Last week, Family Dollar Stores Inc. revealed an effort to close 370 stores this year while slashing prices on 1,000 products. The discount retailer said its profit for the second quarter plunged more than 30%.
A recent report from Retail Metrics found that retailers closed the fourth quarter with a 7.1% plunge in earnings, marking their worst performance since 1999.
Even if the winter had been mild, retailers would still have had to resort to heavy discounting to shed leftover inventory from the holidays, said Standard & Poor's analyst Diya Iyer.

So we're at the very beginning of our new year, 2013, so I think it's important to look back on what turned out to be such an exciting year (for me) in terms of Indie music.
I'm going to start the year all the way over in May because that's when the hangover of 2011 had truly lifted and the real magic started to happen. On May 21st, The Enemy released their third full-length album, Streets In The Sky, which after the heavy criticism of album number two (still a great record in my view), had plenty to answer to. Luckily, these guys knew just what to do, and they came out with an album stripped right back to the raw power we heard from The Enemy in their debut, but with a far more optimistic message behind the album as a whole. The sound was aggressive, guitar dominant, as well as being simple and brilliantly catchy which is what can only be expected from a songwriter like Tom Clarke who prefers to throw music snobbery aside for a decent tune. Tracks such as This Is Real, Gimme The Sign and Bigger Cages Longer Chains give us the raw power we crave while Two Kids and Get Up and Dance show us the sensitive side of the Coventry trio.
While we're on the subject of glorious comebacks, let's talk about Lex Hives, the fifth album from Sweden's greatest Rock'n'Roll band (as they have modestly dubbed themselves) after an agonising five year wait- FIVE YEARS! This self-produced record was released internationally on June 4th, and like a hungry lion on an unsuspecting gazelle, I pounced on it. In the process of bringing it home for my first listen, the fears of "what if I hate it? Maybe I should just never listen to it to avoid disappointment…" kicked in. Of course this was all ridiculous because The Hives produced one of their best records to date. It's so hard to find consistency in modern music- it's hard to find a band that shows the same genius for more than two albums; however, much like a modern Stones, The Hives have so far come out with five consecutive albums jam packed with sheer awesomeness. With the addition of a brass section, tracks like Go Right Ahead and UK bonus track, Midnight Shifter were an exciting new element but if it ain't broke, The Hives won't fix it, so for the remainder of the album these music legends stuck to what they're best at: fast paced, no nonsense Rock music. For the record, The Hives put on the best live show of any band I've ever seen, so if you ever have the rare chance to catch them in the UK, for goodness sake take it!
As the sun was setting from the UK's wettest summer on record, all was not lost for on August 13th, Indie newbies, Spector released their debut album, Enjoy It While It Lasts, after a string of singles including Chevy Thunder which was to shake Britain. Spector produced a record where every single song, even the slower ones, like an exceptionally vigilant koala bear, clings to your brain for the rest of the day- sometimes even longer. What makes Enjoy It While It Lasts such a marvel is its shameless simplicity, its lyrical charm and, of course, Fred Macpherson's smooth vocal throughout. If you haven't experienced Spector, you ought to be ashamed of yourself.
The very next week, on August 19th, a band I think we'll hear a lot more of pretty soon, Life In Film, released their first five-track EP entitled Needles And Pins. With a sound that's both slightly melancholic in a Morrissey kind of way, whilst also being summery with a beautiful trebly guitar tone, the EP is so understated, often leaving me to question whether there is any justice left in this world. Title track Needles And Pins is sad and beautiful in its melody, while Until It's Over, with its clever guitar riff, and perfectly placed bass drum during chorus giving it some real power behind it. I had the pleasure of interviewing lead vocalist Sam, and not that it makes a difference to the music, but he was extremely pleasant! Anyway, keep a close eye out for these guys because I think once they get an album out there will be no stopping them.
September 3rd marked both the release of The Vaccines' second album, and The Milk's debut album. Let's start with The Milk- Tales From The Thames Delta: I watched this band in the summer of 2011 and thought they were absolutely great- they were energetic, musically flawless and all in all gave memorable performance. This still didn't prepare me for the impact their first album would have on me. I was completely blown away by the record. I'd forgotten how R'n'B influenced it was, and just how strong singer Clarie Robin's vocals were. The album is instrumentally excellent; featuring irresistibly dance-worthy drum beats working perfectly with the guitar. Stand out songs would have to be Broke Up The Family, B-Roads, Chip The Kids and my personal favourite (All I Wanted Was) Danger, but album closer, Lay The Pain On Me, is fragile, as well as soulful and is a testimony to Robin's vocal range.
The Vaccines second album, Come Of Age was surprisingly different to NME golden boys' first album. The style was essentially the same: still very much a guitar band, still very much Indie music, but this second taste of The Vaccines gave the feeling they'd gone deeper into music than before, experimenting with more unusual melodies, seen in Aftershave Ocean and Weirdo. The album probably doesn't quite match its predecessor but is nonetheless a great set of tracks.
Late September saw the long awaited return of Mumford and Sons who managed to find a place in most of the world's hearts in 2009 with Sigh No More. Their follow-up release, could never be anything other than a great album- the reasons for this being it is too darn similar to their first album to be classed differently! So, yes, Babel, is full of beautiful harmonies, the rustic sound of a banjo and a double bass, which is all great- in all fairness it is a great album! It has to be said, however, that it could easily be mistaken for the first album, in the strumming patterns of the songs, particularly the likes of I Will Wait and the undulation of Marcus Mumford's melodies in tracks such as Holland Road do seem slightly similar to previous Mumford songs. However back-handed this may seem, I do genuinely love the album, it's an easy listen, it's full of beautiful harmonies, and if Sigh No More had never existed I am confident this would boost Mumford to stardom all the same, I just think the third album needs to catch us off guard slightly.
By October the 8th, Nottingham's new boys, Dog Is Dead, released their debut full-length album, All Our Favourite Stories. I have already raved about this in a review but just to reiterate- the album, to me, is more or less perfect. Dog Is Dead have found a sound so unique to them and with such credibility: refreshingly, each of the five members can sing, and in turn their harmonies are phenomenal; Indie music seems to have gone crazy for harmonies lately but these guys really know how to do it. All Our Favourite Stories is a great summer soundtrack (despite it's October release), with tunes like their self-confessed "American douchebag song", Talk Through The Night as well as the classic Glockenspiel Song. Dog Is Dead convey real emotion and meaning in their songs without being pretentious and are definitely only going to get bigger and bigger from here on out.
My final two albums were released the very next week on October 15th. Firstly: Little Comets' follow up to In Search Of Elusive Little Comets, named, Life Is Elsewhere, is an interesting one. While the band's debut was pretty straight forward, generally speaking, with some brilliant guitar parts and extremely impressive vocals due to Robert Coles' impossible vocal range. With the latest album, the Comets have produced material far more complex than before, with unusual, almost mathematical timing in several tracks. This, on the one hand makes it a great listen while by yourself because you get to listen to every fragment of every song and think "how are they doing that?!" but it also means the second album is far less dancy than the first. It depends what you're into really, but I've found the second album has some extraordinary tracks on, such as Bayonne, Worry and an unusual and vulnerable number, Violence Out Tonight.
Finally, although he's been given enough attention by most of the music world just recently, I have to mention Jake Bugg's self-title debut. With a retro sound and a simple approach, Bugg at just eighteen years old has done exceptionally well for himself. The album is filled with part Cash, part Dylan-esque tunes, delivered with a kind of teenage aggression, evident in Two Fingers and Lightning Bolt. I don't really need to say much else on the album because it's been plastered all over NME for months but Jake Bugg is an album with great integrity, sung by someone far beyond his years, that simply does not get old.
So that's been my 2012 in music- a year I feel has been one of the most exciting I've encountered and one I feel is leading somewhere really special, that I can only hope to follow just as closely. 2013 promises much from bands such as Haim and Swim Deep as well as a supposed comeback from Kings Of Leon. All in all I think this will be a good year.

'United States of Tara' preview: 3 questions answered in Season 3
We have to admit that we broke our own rule about not watching a series more than a couple episodes in front of the viewer for Season 3 of Showtime's "United States of Tara." But, Season 3 is just that addictive.
It has a new energy about it and the pace feels different. It's like the team discovered a new well of fascination for the characters and we the viewers are the lucky recipients of that discovery.
We have so many reasons we think you should point your television at "Tara," but we'll limit ourselves to the following three questions answered in honor of Season 3's premiere:
Warning: Semi-spoilery!
1.) How does Tara deal with last season's reveal that her half-brother abused her?
It's widely publicized that Tara ( Toni Collette) returns to college to finish off her last semester of school. That opens the door for way more opportunities for the alters to play and other issues from her college life with surface. As a result, she takes on a whole new tactic for dealing with the other personalities and we see a whole new side of them as they protect her from her newest threat...
2.) How does guest star, Eddie Izzard, play into the season?
The actor and comedian takes off the heels and plays Tara's new pysch professor who doesn't believe her condition is real. That's a new take for the series as Tara has basically surrounded herself with people who have catered to her "shifting moods." He's excellent in the role and though he's labeled as a guest star, he's pivotal to the season's plot.
3.) What occupational hazards lie in wait for the rest of the family?
There are a lot of changes after Season 2, which had Tara's family taking on some major life explorations. In Season 3, they've traded in one exploration for another, which in many cases involves what they want to be when they "grow up" - and we're not just talking the kids.
Dad, Max ( John Corbett), faces challenges to his landscaping business and finds himself needing to define himself outside of work. After playing a video vixen who sat on cakes last season, daughter Kate ( Brie Larson) finally lands (or soars) in a career that will help her see the world in a whole different way. Son Marshall ( Keir Gilchrist) is pretty much gay in spades this season and finds some clarity about his relationships in his passion for filmmaking. And Tara's sister, Charmaine ( Rosemarie DeWitt), faces impending motherhood post-botched wedding as she deals with a life she never envisioned for herself.
"United States of Tara" Season 3 premieres Monday, March 28 at 10:30 p.m. ET.

According to Madden, the mother of the home just happened to wake up and smell smoke. She immediately got one child out and ran through smoke to get her second child to safety. They all made it out okay, but they lost all of the belongings and their home.

Because diva's don't prepare in a dressing room. They get their own trailer, bi-atch!
I lost a little respect for Anderson both for the moving of the Vaseline and the short grabbing. Rule breaking is rule breaking, regardless of outcome.... I will say I think what silva's guys did was opertunistic, while gsps guy straight had a tub of Vaseline... But both are bad
Tub of vaseline eh? lol your haterade is affecting your intellection.
GSP : Lets do drug testing through VADA, I pay (VADA has offered it for free to GSP.)
Hendricks: No, VADA are good friends of yours so I'd rather do the testing through WADA.
GSP: (ignores Hendricks request and starts VADA testing without hendricks) HENDRICKS IS DUCKING THE VADA TESTING!!!! (not ever mentioning that Hendricks never agreed to VADA but instead wanted the testing to go through WADA)
Hendricks : I told you I wanted the testing to go through WADA because VADA are good friends of yours and that relationship makes me uncomfortable
GSP: But I don't want to test through WADA unless I know exactly what they will be testing for and when they will be testing.
Hendricks and Keith Kizer: They will be testing for banned substances
GSP: But I want to know exactly which banned substances they will be testing for so I can notify my nutritional staff.
Keith Kizer : GSP's ridiculous request for information is the same as him refusing to go through with WADA testing.
GSP: (now under the gun and spotlight) LETS DO ALL THE TESTS AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE!! (complete overkill and unreasonable reaction)
IMO, GSP seems to be acting more suspiciously then Hendricks.
I don't know what they mean when they say X or Y turned down WADA testing, but strictly speaking, there's no such thing. VADA uses WADA-accredited labs.
I find it hilarious that this has somehow been turned around on GSP and Hendricks skips away into the sunset - it must be nice to be the guy that can do no wrong, no matter what is said / agreed to / asked about/ etc.

Session AV: Geophysical Flows I

Abstract: AV.00010 : Wind-transport of barchan dunes in modulated gravity
Preview Abstract MathJax On | Off Abstract
Daniel Snouck
(Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands)
Willem van de Water
(Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands)
Barchan dunes can be found in sand barren regions under steady wind conditions. They translate in the direction of the wind while their shape remains unchanged. They have a minimal length in the order of ten meters, which renders laboratory experiments almost impossible. The length scale is set by the details of the sand-wind interaction. Smaller dunes do not evolve into the typical barchan dune shape. Our experimental approach produces dramatically scaled down barchan dunes. The idea is to modulate gravity by vertical oscillation of the sand bed. We produce small dunes that travel in the turbulent boundary layer of an open windtunnel. Particle image velocimetry on the surface of moving dunes reveals the flux of creeping sand, while measurement of sand grains flying through the air quantifies the key mechanism that moves sand by wind: saltation. While the amount of sand flying with the flow does not vary strongly in an oscillation cycle, the sand creeping over the dune surface is only in motion when the effective gravity is smaller than g. Thus, modulation of gravity provides a unique view on sand transport in wind. Saltation is an activation process, and we demonstrate the importance of turbulence.

text: The Atlanta Falcons and free agent Richard Seymour may not have jump-started serious contract discussions, but that doesn't mean a deal won't be worked out in the coming weeks. NFL.com's Ian Rapoport confirmed on NFL Network's "NFL Total Access" Monday that the Falcons have shown more interest than any other team in Seymour. Although the veteran defensive tackle is willing to "walk into retirement" if the situation is not perfect, per Rapoport, Seymour appears to be reciprocating the Falcons' interest.

Vaquero Bean Tempeh Chili is one of the recipes The Great Vegan Bean Book. This chili and the new book are both packed full of heirloom beans. In this recipe the heirloom star is vaquero beans. They are black and white and a relative to the anasazi bean and they are very tasty.
The lovely photo above was taken by my friend, and incredibly talented photographer, Renée Comet. Make sure to head over to her website and look at some of her other beautiful photos. I'm so lucky that she took all the photos for this book, and I had a blast doing the food styling for her!
Vaquero Bean Tempeh Chili Recipe From The Great Vegan Bean Book
This chili has a very rich, dark flavor from the combination of chiles. If you decide to buy heirloom beans from Rancho Gordo, be sure to order some of their yummy chili powders.
2 tablespoons olive oil (*use water or broth)
1/2 small onion, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
8 ounces (225 g) soy tempeh, diced (**use seitan)
6 cups (1500 g) cooked Vaquero beans or 3 cans (15 ounces, or 420 g each) pinto or black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup (235 ml) water
1 can (14.5 ounces, or 406 g) diced tomatoes or 1 1/2 cups (270 g) chopped fresh
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon pasilla chile powder
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder
Salt (smoked or plain)
Vegan sour cream **or Cashew Cream, for serving
Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then add the garlic and sauté for a few more minutes.
Add everything else except the salt and sour cream. Cook over medium heat and turn to low as soon as it starts to simmer. Cover and cook for 30 to 40 minutes, until piping hot. Taste and season with salt. Serve topped with vegan sour cream.
Yield: 6 servings
Total Prep Time: 20 minutes
Total Cooking Time: 40 to 50 minutes
This chili also has 3 different kinds of powdered chilies and tempeh in it to make it perfect for a cold not-quite winter's day. You can also just substitute some pintos or black beans that you have in your pantry. The beauty of beans is that you can use fancy, special beans or more budget-friendly ones.
I also have some great news there's a new and improved cover for the book! Renée Comet also took this photo and I hope you love it as much as I do.

FOR this year's Feedback Christmas Competition you were invited to suggest the title and (if you felt like it) provide the blurb for the book about science or technology you would most like to read. As has happened before with our competitions, morphic resonance ensured that many of you were struck by identical ideas, presumably at the same instant.
Among the books that you opted for morphically were: The Big Bang - My Theory (by God); A Prehistory of the Big Bang (also by God); The Pope's Guide to Contraceptive Techniques; 101 Uses for Buckyballs; Knitting with Superstring; A Dictionary of Computer Jargon and What Science Doesn't Know.
Delightful though these ideas were, we chose winners that no one else thought of. These were:
• Where They Stand: Television Weather Presenters. An investigation into the psychology, symbolism and physiology of TV weather forecasters. Why do they stand to the right ...

News of Riverton, Lander and Fremont County, Wyoming, from the Ranger's award winning journalists.
We parents aren't alone
Apr 9, 2013 - Marlene Channing, Riverton
I thank Mr. Peck for writing from time to time about being a parent, which he did on March 19 for his son's 20th birthday. I can remember one years ago about his little boy running across the yard toward his favorite climbing tree in the spring. If I recall, it was about "still being young, but going fast," a play on words I appreciated as the daughter of an expository writing teacher.
All of us parents go through these things, but it is nice to read about it to reassure us that we are not alone.

Trauma is significant and/or persistent verbal, physical, emotional or sexual abuse, either past or present, which may affect a woman's emotional well-being, self-esteem and ability to derive pleasure from life.
An addiction occurs when a person experiences loss of control of a harmful substance or harmful behaviors, when attempts to create moderation fail and when these behaviors have a detrimental effect on a person's well-being.
The emotional impact of past or present trauma often worsens in early recovery, as a woman is no longer using addictive substances to cope. The emotional pain, if not addressed, can become unendurable, heading to problems with chronic relapsing.
The program provides a variety of specialty groups, including process groups which address trauma issues; addiction groups, which provide education concerning the addiction illness and relapse triggers (using 12-step philosophy); coping skills groups to assist in the healthy management of emotions; and creative arts therapies to facilitate recognition and expression of feeling.
The program provides psychiatric evaluation and treatment recommendations. Medications are prescribed when needed. Medications may be necessary to treat the intrusive symptoms of trauma which often arise in early recovery.

Battery power and bags of practicality! Chrysler is working on an electric Voyager MPV, offering the benefits of a zero-emissions vehicle, a 300-mile range and enough space to swallow the entire family, plus their luggage. Auto Express has learned it's likely to be based on the ecoVoyager concept first seen at the 2008 Detroit Motor Show. The US manufacturer has vowed not to be left behind the competition when it comes to green technologies. And this is the first in a series of three possible production electric cars that will be shown to dealers later this month. The one that's best received could be put into production as early as 2010.
But that's not all. Chrysler's ENVI division – responsible for the firm's eco technologies – is also readying a rival to the Chevrolet Volt. This is equipped with a small on-board engine for topping up the batteries when they fall below 40 per cent charge. A 2012 on-sale date is slated for this model.

I would think they would stay away from the came and horns but i don't know,never delt with them before. I was thinking of at least peeing around the cape and horns or that probably won't even bother them. I have to first worrying about hitting the migration so I can get one.

On April 12, 2008, the Alexandria City Council passed an ordinance to establish the Alexandria Transportation Commission to advocate and promote development of balanced transportation systems for the City of Alexandria, through oversight of the implementation of the Transportation Chapter of the City's adopted Master Plan.
The City of Alexandria's Department of Transportation & Environmental Services is working towards creating a transportation network that encourages the use of alternative modes of transportation and reduces dependency on single occupancy vehicles. Due to the schedule conflict with the City Council meeting on April 28, Nathan Macek, Chair of the City's Transportation Commission, provided testimony on the draft FY 2016 to FY 2021 Six-Year Improvement Program on behalf of the City of Alexandria to members of the Commonwealth Transportation Board (CTB). The testimony focused on improvements of mobility options with legislation such as House Bill (HB) 2313 and HB 1887 that provide addition funding to the City. The testimony elaborated on the partnership that extended the City a $50 million loan through the Virginia Transportation Infrastructure Bank for the Potomac Yard Metrorail Station, funding for construction of the I-395 South Widening Project, and continued support for Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority.
Unless otherwise noted, all meetings will be located at City Hall (301 King Street), Council Work Room (Second Floor). Meetings are held at 7:00 p.m. the third Wednesday of each month. The Transportation Commission does not meet during the month of August.
Public comment on non-public hearing agenda items are welcomed if submitted in writing. Verbal public comments are welcomed during public hearings, which are noted below for specific agenda items.
June 17, 2015
May 11, 2015 - NOTE: This meeting date was rescheduled due to a conflict with another City meeting on the regular Commission meeting date. In addition, a special Work Session on the 2015 Transportation Long Range Plan will begin at 6pm, and is open to the public.
