Bringing common sense to common core
Perhaps the best kept secret in state government is that parents have a right to refuse to have their children take the Common Core standardized tests if they desire without fear of reprisal against their kids, teachers or schools. Both parents and teachers have expressed concern over the over-testing of children in New York […] [Read More]
Horrific attack on Halfmoon puppy shows need for state animal abuser registry
In the wake of a horrific crime of animal cruelty in Halfmoon where a nine-month old puppy was set on fire, today I'm calling on the state legislature to pass my legislation to create a statewide registry of animal abusers. A 19-year-old Halfmoon resident faces felony animal cruelty charges under Buster's Law for allegedly […] [Read More]
Going digital update
It's been over 3 and a half months since New York voters overwhelmingly passed Proposition 2 which I sponsored, debated and promoted to stop wasting tax dollars and paper and go digital at the state Capitol. The Assembly Majority today finally got around to wiring my desk for whatever digital device will be used […] [Read More]
State elected officials should pay their taxes before taking office
"Hey Governor, politicians should pay their taxes or lose their seats because what's good for the goose is good for the gander!" That's the message Assemblyman Dean Murray (R,C,I-East Patchogue) and I are sending the Governor today by announcing new legislation to require all state elected officials to lead by example and pay their […] [Read More]
When is the Legislature going digital?
It's been over three months since Election Day and the new legislative term began 41 days ago but almost nothing's been done to ensure the Legislature adheres to the will of the people who passed Proposition 2 overwhelmingly to stop wasting tax dollars and paper and go digital at the state Capitol. So far, […] [Read More]
The day reform turned into political expediency in the NYS Assembly
This is a day that will go down in history, unfortunately for all the wrong reasons. It's the day that hope for reform died in the New York State Assembly as the Assembly Majority turned its back on the taxpayers of New York State by rushing to elect a new Speaker without advancing necessary reforms […] [Read More]
New Assembly Speaker must bring new reforms or it'll be "meet the new boss, same as the old boss"
After a 21 year-long reign as Speaker with almost imperial powers over the Assembly, on Monday, Sheldon Silver will either have to resign as Speaker or he will be voted out of office by the majority of his colleagues. I've said for many years that Speaker Silver should resign based on his lack of […] [Read More]
Governor embraces my plan to protect police cars with bullet proof glass
I'm heartened that the Governor has embraced my proposal in the state budget to better protect the men and women who keep New Yorkers safe, our police officers, by equipping their vehicles with bullet proof glass as I first called for on December 21, 2014. If it is good enough for high-ranking government officials […] [Read More]

text: The official Kremlin narrative on the war in eastern Ukraine is clear and simple: after seizing power in February, a Western-backed "junta" in Kiev sent neo-Nazi gangs – then tanks and warplanes – to stamp out peaceful protests by the Russian-speaking community. The locals who took up arms are freedom fighters, and the only help they get from Russia is humanitarian aid. For the past six months, Russian state television has carpet-bombed its viewers with this message, day in and day out.

There is lot's of Baseball played in the area. My only two trips to the Soldotna area have involved coaching Little League Baseball. The Soldotna Little League quite often is the host of the Southern Pool Championships for many levels of baseball as there are lot's of baseball fields that are maintained very well. With the extended daylight hours in the summer it's very easy to start a game at 8 P.M. and have it finished before it gets unsafe to see the ball.

This Sunday, April 27, the Green-Wood Historic Fund will celebrate the life and career of Florence LaBadie, an early 20th century silent film sensation known as "Fearless Flo" (because she often performed her own stunts), with a dedication ceremony at her final resting place, featuring music and remarks. A reception will follow in Green-Wood's Historic Chapel.
Although she appeared in more than 180 films, a car accident in 1928 tragically cut her life short at the age of 28. Mysteriously, no monument was ever placed at her burial site and her resting place has remained unmarked for nearly a century. Continue reading

April 8th, and runs through April 12th.
Our philosophy is ALWAYS INCLUSIVE, NEVER EXCLUSIVE. These five days will bring together designers, boutiques, stylists, artists, musicians, bars, restaurants, and other businesses that have a vested interest in the quality of life of Upstate New York. While we celebrate clothing as one of the essentials to a happy human existence, another vitally important essential is food. Hunger and food insecurity is, unfortunately, an ever-growing concern in many areas of the country, including ours. For this reason, we are partnering with The Food Bank of Central New York to raise awareness and funds for this social issue.

path to windows 7 'libraries' from JFileChooser
I am running windows 7 - 64 bit. Java version is 1.6.0_20.
Our software uses a JFileChooser to display the dialog to create a new file/project. After passing the if statement in the fragment below the user has chosen his file.
if (JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION == chooser.showOpenDialog(parentFrame))
File file = chooser.getSelectedFile();
If the user navigated to one of windows 7's new 'libraries' then the path associated with the file that is returned on the next line by the getSelectedFile() method is not a valid path. It looks like:
where sdfg is the filename. This isn't flagged immediately, but the root cause is here. The new windows 7 libraries are not filesystem locations, but some sort of reference (although they appear in the filesystem), so I can see why it is like this, but it is a problem, because they do link to filesystem locations.
I have ended up writing some incomplete and not ideal path substitution methods as a work around. Anyone know any proper way of dealing with this? Is quite hard to search for anything to do with libraries, so I have not managed to find anything.
This is obviously a bug, but not in the JFileChooser, of course, but in java.io/java.nio classes.
I suggest to submit a bug report at http://bugs.sun.com/

Texans have the opportunity to consider nine amendments to the Texas Constitution Tuesday, Nov. 5.
The nine amendments cover a variety of topics from reverse mortgages to eliminating an already-obsolete State Medical Education Fund.
The key ballot issue, though, is Proposition 6, which would add funding and new financing options for future state water planning.
The amendment would allow the state to take $2 billion from the Rainy Day fund for water projects. It would also establish two new funds separate from the state's general fund to finance future water projects. The Rainy Day Fund is currently estimated to be at $8 billion.

"How can we believe a man who would sell out his friends?"
"Dumkopf! Who else are you supposed to sell out? You can't betray enemies!"
No truer words have ever been spoken about the world of espionage, despite the fact these quotes came from the "Get Smart" comedy series.
There has been quite an uproar in international circles over the extent of U.S. spying and eavesdropping around the world – especially when it comes to our "friends."
We were all up in arms when former National Security Agency (NSA) worker Edward Snowden revealed the agency was collecting data on Americans domestically through phone records. While we are not as bothered by similar news about our snooping in the business of foreign governments and leaders, many of them have perked up and shown their consternation and offense at the practice.
Limestone County's Relay for Life is Oct. 25-26 at Fort Parker State Park, meaning it is time to make sure all the hard work and preparation pay off, by eclipsing our fundraising goal for 2013.
To date, participants have raised $36,841 toward the annual goal of $48,000. To finish strong and surpass that goal we will need a lot of excitement and participation next Friday evening during the event and night of games and walking.
If you have never watched a group of cancer survivors take that first lap around the track, then you are missing out. If you have never participated in a luminaria ceremony, then you must come Friday.

When your 9-year-old comes running out of the bathroom feeling very accomplished because they used the toilet, I hope you do not give out gold stars and ice cream.
When someone in your office shows up on time on a Thursday I hope you do not strike up the band and give them a big, "Way to go, Dave."
These are things we expect at a certain point, so they should not come with much fanfare or praise. Some things you just do, but Congress defines the term "big accomplishment" differently.
When members of Congress looked the debt ceiling deadline in the eye and blinked, leading to a last-minute reprieve from the unknown but sure catastrophe of default, there was plenty of patting themselves on the back for averting a disaster. It was as though a trip to Chuck E. Cheese was in order.
I would like to know why Mexia cant control our dog problem. I know there is a leash law, but we have dogs all over our yard all the time, especially as soon as the catcher goes home. Waco and other places are at least trying.
We get sick and tired of all these people turning out their dogs and they come to our yard to use the bathroom.

I am writing this letter to earn the next rank in Boy Scouts, which is Life. I have been to a lot of places that kids dream about.
I've been to the Davis Mountains where there is a camp that has a spring-fed pool that stays 65 degrees in the day. I have stayed on Lake Bridgeport for a week.
I've seen the Vicksburg Battlefield, where we walked 5 miles of the 14 – because we were just too tired to finish the rest of the way. It was cool seeing a big part of our history.
For any kid who wants to join our troop, we meet on Tuesdays at 6:30 in the building across from the hospital. They can come and just experience what we do and if they like what we do, then they can come back and join the troop for good!

With the government shut down, national news media has been left with little to do but poll Americans on what they think of our elected officials and the stalemate in Washington.
According to every poll, we are unhappy, disgusted, disgruntled and eager for change. Will the same anger and frustration lead to change in the primaries and general election next year?
Attitudes toward our elected officials have rarely been so dismal, but even when approval ratings slump badly, we find that when the next election cycle rolls around we often re-elect the same people we were so angry with before.
It is so easy to be mad in the moment. It is comfortable to sit back and second-guess and rally against Congress from our couch when a polling company calls.

You might think observing a government that has shuttered many of its offices and has turned its tradition of being ineffective into an art form by grinding to a halt might be very boring, but there have been many nuggets of knowledge along the way.
These are not gold nuggets, mind you: They are more like lumps of coal, but sometimes we have to get past the shiny parts to really see the truth.
Where's the budget?
The government "shut down" at midnight Monday as the fiscal year drew to a close. The fiscal year has always ended Sept. 30 so the deadline to have a new budget in place did not sneak up on anyone in Congress. There is no moving target here. Think of it as a college term paper, but one that earns everyone in America an F when it is not completed on time.
It seems that back in 2012 the Bistone Water Supply District viewed its consumers – primarily the cities of Mexia, Wortham and Whiterock – as partners. At that time the district sought financial support for a rate study and everyone agreed to pitch in a portion of the funding.
The results of that rate study was shared with city officials last month, at the same time it was revealed the district had already received $6 million in bond funds from the Texas Water Development Board.
Now, those same communities that agreed to fund a rate study are going to see their water rates increase by as much as 30 percent. It appears as though the communication and partnering did not extend to the decision-making about whether or not to take on the new debt.

Whether it is concerns over global warming or dwindling fossil fuels, mankind has for some time known deep down that something about how we produce and use energy needs to change.
Two very big hurdles stand in the way of change, though. The first is our general unwillingness to cut back on consumption or pay more for renewable energy sources. The second is the enormous profits in the fossil fuel industry.
The prime example of this gluttonous, short-sighted approach to our future is Exxon Mobil Corp. The company is an impressive example of business success, but it fails the test of truly seeing beyond today's profits.

FTSE CLOSE: Retreat for London market as Germany reveals worst contraction in four years
17.30 (CLOSE): London's top flight index beat a retreat today as figures revealed the eurozone fell deeper into recession following the worst contraction in Germany's economy since the financial crisis.
Germany suffered its sharpest fall in output for four years, down 0.6 per cent in the last quarter of 2012 on the back of weaker demand from its trading partners, many of whom are in recession.
The worse-than-expected decline saw the wider eurozone economy shrink by 0.6 per cent in the fourth quarter, sending stock markets sharply lower, with London's FTSE 100 Index closing down 31.8 points at 6327.4.
Fall in output: Chancellor Angela Merkel was today dealing with the news that Germany had suffered its sharpest fall in output for four years.
Germany's Dax was among the worst impacted, down 1 per and France's Cac 40 fell 0.5 per cent, while on Wall Street the Dow Jones Industrial Average was trading lower on the news.
The eurozone's fourth quarter fall marked the first full year in which no quarter saw growth dating back to 1995.
There are hopes Germany has started this year in better form, but there was more bad news from France as figures showed the country did not grow at all during 2012.
The eurozone gloom sent the single currency down sharply against the pound, with sterling up 0.8 per cent at 1.16 euros. But the pound continued its downward trend against the US dollar and was lower at 1.55.
In corporate updates, Rio Tinto reversed early session share gains after the mining giant racked up full-year losses of $3 billion US (£1.9 billion) due to recent write-downs relating to two major acquisitions.
Shares had initially lifted after new boss Sam Walsh pledged an 'unrelenting focus' on pursuing greater value for shareholders, but the stock later slid 11.5p to 3745.5p.
Rival BHP Billiton held on to gains, up 32p to 2225p, but Randgold Resources was 70p lower at 5800p after the World Gold Council said global demand slipped last year on reduced buying in India.
Meanwhile, engine maker Rolls-Royce was up 32.5p to 1017p after posting its tenth year in a row of rising underlying profits, up 24 per cent to £1.4 billion.
The group also appointed BP director Ian Davis to replace outgoing chairman Sir Simon Robertson as it steps up its response to bribery and corruption allegations.
Engineer Amec was another blue-chip weighing on the wider FTSE 100 with a 7 per cent fall - down 82p to 1042p - after its cautious outlook disappointed the market.
Mobile phone giant Vodafone remained under pressure for a second straight session, down 4.1p to 167.6p.
And cruise ship operator Carnival was down 75p to 2500p after cancelling a dozen voyages due to problems with its Triumph cruise ship.
In the second tier FTSE 250 drinks firms Robinsons squash maker Britvic and Irn-Bru owner AG Barr both suffered share falls after their plans to merge were referred to the Competition Commission by the Office of Fair Trading. Shares were down 30p to 390p and 13p to 502.5p respectively.
The biggest FTSE 100 risers were Rolls-Royce up 32.5p to 1017p, Aberdeen Asset Management ahead 10.4p to 426.4p, Unilever 38p higher at 2583p and BHP Billiton up 32p to 2225p.
The biggest FTSE 100 fallers were Amec down 82p to 1042p, Shire off 118p to 2027p, Polymetal 40p lower at 1022p and Carnival down 75p to 2500p.
14.40: Financial markets saw losses deepen as traders assessed the economic damage to Germany on the back of weaker demand from its eurozone trading partners.
The 0.6 per cent contraction in Germany's economy was the worst performance since the financial crisis and helped push eurozone as a whole deeper into recession.
The FTSE 100 was down 41.4 points at 6,317.75, while Germany's DAX was 75.5 points lower at 7,636.4 and France's CAC 40 lagged 20.7 points at 3,677.8.
Economy watch: Euro crisis takes toll on top members France and Germany, as both saw output shrink at the end of last year
The Dow Jones also slid 41.5 points to 13,941.4 on the open despite a sharper than expected fall in weekly US jobless claims, which would normally give the index a lift.
In corporate news, Amec fell 6 per cent or 68.5p to 1055.5p after its cautious outlook statement disappointed the City.
Mobile phone giant Vodafone remained under pressure for a second straight session, down 4.3p to 167.4p.
Financial markets have slumped after a larger than expected contraction in the usually robust German economy.
The FTSE 100 slid 29.2 points to 6,329.8 while the German DAX tumbled 72.9 points to 7,639 and the French CAC 40 fell 23.2 points to 3,675.4.
Germany's 0.6 per cent decline in output was apparently down to weaker exports at the end of last year, revealing the impact of the euro crisis on even its strongest member.
France also saw its economy shrink by a worse than expected 0.3 per cent. Read more here about the dire figures, which left both countries on the brink of recession, just like the UK. A recession officially means two quarters in a row of negative growth.
The 17-member eurozone as a whole contracted by 0.6 per cent, dragged down by the economic woes of Italy and Spain.
In corporate updates, Rio Tinto rose 32.25p to 3789.5p after new boss Sam Walsh pledged an 'unrelenting focus' on pursuing greater value for shareholders.
His comments came after Rio racked up full-year losses of $2billion (£1.3billion) due to recent write-downs relating to two major acquisitions.
Rival BHP Billiton was also higher, up 29.5p to 2221.75p, but Randgold Resources was 20p lower at 5850p after the World Gold Council said global demand slipped last year on reduced buying in India.
Meanwhile, engine maker Rolls-Royce slipped 14.75p to 969.75p, despite posting its tenth year in a row of rising underlying profits, up 24 per cent to £1.4billion.
Cruise holiday firm Carnival was down 50p to 2525p after cancelling a dozen voyages due to problems with its Triumph ship.
The FTSE 100 opened just 0.8 points higher at 6,359.9 as gloomy economic news from Germany and France rattled investors.
Germany's economy shrank by 0.6 per cent in the last three months of 2012, its deepest contraction since the height of the global financial crisis in 2009, as exports slowed at the end of the year.
Preliminary figures from France showed its economy contracted 0.3 per cent in the same period.
French Prime Minster Jean-Marc Ayrault also admitted the country is likely to miss this year's public deficit goal because of weak growth, acknowledging for the first time that a cornerstone of his government's policy was crumbling.
Further bad news from the eurozone as a whole is expected later, with Eurostat likely to announce that the bloc's output shrank 0.4 per cent in the fourth quarter of last year.
This would mean the eurozone remained in recession, after it contracted 0.1 per cent in the third quarter and 0.2 per cent in the second.
The Footsie closed up 20.73 points at 6,359.11 yesterday, after earlier touching a five-year high of 6,384.70.
Stocks to watch today include:
BANKS: Regulation of the banking sector will be in focus, with the European Commission set to present proposals for a tax on financial transactions in 11 EU member states and the US Senate set to hold a hearing about the oversight of financial stability.
RIO TINTO: The miner reported a 47 per cent plunge in half-year underlying profit, its worst since 2009 due to sharp falls in commodity prices, but raised its dividend by more than expected.
AMEC: The engineering firm said its annual earnings were up 11 per cent thanks to a surge in oil and gas revenue, enabling it to offer a 20 per cent hike in its dividend.
ABERDEEN ASSET MANAGEMENT: The blue-chip asset management firm is to acquire Artio Global Investors for $175million.
ROLLS ROYCE: The engine maker reported a 24 per cent rise in full-year profit, led by strong growth at its civil aerospace unit. The company also announced the departure of chairman Sir Simon Robertson and the appointment of his successor, BP executive Ian Davis.
LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE: The exchange is to launch a new niche market next month featuring less stringent listing terms for fast-growing companies wanting to raise funds on Britain's stock market.
HALMA: The technology group expects adjusted profit for the full year to be in line with market expectations.

GE engine faulted for crash that killed 9
PORTLAND, Ore. An Oregon jury ruled Tuesday that a problem with an engine was responsible for the 2008 crash of a helicopter that killed nine firefighters during a wildfire in Northern California.
The jury in Portland reached its verdict after a pilot who survived and the widow of one who was killed sued General Electric for $177 million.
The plaintiffs argued the company knew the engines it made for the Sikorsky S-61N helicopter had a design flaw making the equipment unsafe.
GE countered that the helicopter crashed because it was carrying too much weight when it took off after picking up a firefighting crew battling the Iron 44 wildfire in Shasta-Trinity National Forest near Weaverville, Calif.
"They're heroes," plaintiffs' attorney Greg Anderson said of the pilots, William Coultas and Roark Schwanenberg. "They saved as many people as they could. They have been pilloried before this."
The chopper was airborne less than a minute when it clipped a tree and fell from the sky, bursting into flames.
Four people survived, including Coultas of Cave Junction.
The plaintiffs and family members in court for the verdict dabbed their eyes and exchanged stiff handshakes with GE's attorneys. They declined to speak with reporters after the verdict was read.
After a two-year investigation, the National Transportation Safety Board concluded in 2010 that too much weight and a lack of oversight caused the crash.
The lawsuit decided Tuesday was brought by Coultas, his wife and the estate of Schwanenberg, who died in the crash.
The jury awarded $28.4 million to the estate of Schwanenberg. Coultas was awarded $37 million and his wife $4.3 million by the jury.
The jury put most of the blame - 57 percent - on GE but also found the helicopter's owner and its manufacturer partially at fault.
Helicopter operator Carson Helicopters was dismissed from the case, and Sikorsky Aircraft Corp. previously settled with the plaintiffs.
GE Aviation spokesman Rick Kennedy said the company will appeal the verdict, though it must first look at the full language.
"We strongly disagree with the verdict," Kennedy said. "Our position has been all along that this verdict completely contradicts findings by the NTSB."
A statement from Carson Helicopters said the company had blamed GE's engine for the crash and felt the verdict brought light and closure to the incident.
Jurors put 23 percent of the blame for the crash on Carson Helicopters, and 20 percent on Sikorsky Aircraft Corp., even though neither is financially liable in the current legal action.
Anderson argued during the trial in Portland that GE knew for at least six years that there was a problem with a fuel control valve on the engine, The Oregonian reported. But rather than correct the problem, Anderson said, the company treated it like a service issue.
Anderson introduced as evidence a GE internal email from Aug. 6, 2008, the day after the crash, discussing the size of the fuel filter, noting that the military version removes much smaller particles than the commercial version.
GE attorney Kevin Smith argued that the helicopter crashed because it was more than 1,400 pounds overweight at takeoff, and that the pilots were relying on inadequate information about the weight and liftoff power provided by the owners of the helicopter, Carson Helicopters of Grants Pass.

Pay TV Middleware is emerging from largely closed systems with long product cycles to more modular and open architectures with large operators adopting a best-in-class approach. New technologies including advanced advertising, multiscreen guides, TV personalization via search, recommendation and discovery, and automatic content recognition are all receiving investment.
Conditional Access Systems (CAS) and Digital Rights Management (DRM) technologies provide content protection (copy prevention) and revenue protection (blocking access to unauthorized users) for video content. The CAS market is changing slowly based on downloadable and renewable CAS technologies and DVB standardization, notably simulcrypt. The DRM market is maturing and moving from a PC and traditional telco IPTV focus to look at content delivery to connected TVs and multiscreen devices (tablets, smartphones).
Tier-1 vendors are consolidating and transitioning from product-oriented offerings to more holistic systems integration and service offerings. A second tier of vendors is focusing on more turnkey solutions. Innovation continues to happen through small, nimble start-ups on multiple continents.
