The month of March- it's unpredictable at best. Hunter S. Thompson said it this way "March is a month without mercy for rabid basketball fans. There is no such thing as a 'gentleman gambler' when the Big Dance rolls around. All sheep will be fleeced, all fools will be punished severely… There are no Rules when the deal goes down in the final weeks of March. Even your good friends will turn into monsters." Read More

I turn 30 this week. It's interesting. I've had people say things like, "You are a grown up now." This is a strange statement. Has 30 really become the age of maturity? If this is society's expectation, we're setting the bar very low. Society does itself a disservice when it doesn't expect men to grow up until they are 30. Read More

Fantasy football drafts have started. Men all over the United States are gathering in bars and man caves to pick the team that will lead them to fantasy football domination. I am in a fantasy league and love to play. I am not here to slam guys for playing fantasy games. I actually think that things like fantasy football can be a great tool for mission and relationship in our communities. Read More

In his book, To Change the World, James Davison Hunter says, "the passion to engage the world, to shape it and finally change it for the better, would seem to be an enduring mark of Christians on the world in which they live. Throughout Scripture, we read of great men who, often through the unlikeliest of circumstances, achieved incredible feats and influenced the world in ways that can still be seen today. Read More

True friendship is something all men need, but not many have—so what should we to do? There is no silver bullet that will fix this problem for all men everywhere, but there are some things that can definitely help. In my last blog I talked about how proximity and availability play a huge role in why guys do not have close friends. If we are going to get past these two obstacles, the process has to start internally. Read More
There are many important relationships in a man's life and none deserve more care, focus and investment than his relationship with his wife. Volume 5 lays out an inspiring picture of God's vision for marriage that will change everthing for those of you who are "stuck" and encourage those who are thriving.
Work and career play a major role in the life of every man. This volume of 33 The Series begins by recognizing the obstacles and tensions that men can experience in their work-lives and then unfolds a process that helps men move beyond the conventional perspective of work that can lead to dead ends and frustration. It leads them to a bigger, biblical vision of work that goes back to God's original intentions.
This volume of 33 The Series challenges and equips men to go below the surface, to look deep into their hearts and explore some areas that are all too easy to ignore but that are critical in their journey toward Authentic Manhood. It introduces a framework and a process that will help men understand what lies behind the manhood traps and beneath the heart idols that can distract them from the truth and the power of the Gospel. Then it unfolds a biblical battle plan that helps men replace specific temptations and struggles with God's better promises. It deals head-on with issues that all of us as men can relate to like sexual lust, the need for control, unfounded fear and the pursuit of significance.
Every man's life tells a story. In the pursuit of Authentic Manhood, every man must understand and come to grips with the defining moments and key relationships that have shaped his unique story. This volume of 33 The Series provides men with a biblical perspective of their story. It equips them to embrace how their past has affected their present and prepares them to deal with whatever the future may hold. In A Man and His Story, both experts and regular guys will help men learn from their past, come alive in their present and enjoy God's best in the future.
Volume I contains six sessions that explore the basic foundations of Authentic Manhood and God's clear design for men. Starting with meaningful insights into the current state of manhood, Volume I helps men navigate through some manhood realities that have created cultural confusion. It follows by unfolding God's manhood mandates for all men and offering a clear definition of Authentic Manhood that helps men on their journey.

Inaugural Wall Paper for the iPhone
The UI wizards at Gx5 have been a favorite of mine since they saved my old Treo 680 from the Garnet-uglies back in the day. So, when sibling-site leader, TreoCentral's own Jennifer was kind enough to forward us news from Gx5 that they had whipped up some iPhone (and iPod touch) optimized Obama wallpapers just in time for the Inauguration, we figured we'd pass it on to you, our readers, as well.
(For those new to the iPhone and unsure how to change wallpaper, don't worry, we've got you covered!)

Tony Parker Opens Up About Split With Eva Longoria
"The most important thing is to stay strong mentally, even if these are very difficult times," Parker told France's Le Parisien newspaper (via PEOPLE). "I've take refuge in basketball because that's what I've done best since my youth."
With the support of his teammates and family, Parker is trying to move on. "My whole family has been around me through this," he said, adding he's trying to avoid reading anything written about his marriage.
Longoria filed for divorce from Parker in November, citing irreconcilable differences as a reason for the split.
There has been speculation that Parker cheated on his wife. Longoria allegedly found hundreds of text messages on Parker's phone from Erin Barry, the wife of Parker's former San Antonio Spurs teammate Brent Barry. Parker has denied any physical relationship with Erin Barry and filed his own divorce papers.
Longoria took to her Twitter account to make an official announcement about the split. "It is with great sadness that after 7 years together, Tony and I have decided to divorce. We love each other deeply and pray for each other's happiness," she wrote.
The split seemed to surprise everyone -- even their close friends. 'Basketball Wives' star Tami Roman, a longtime friend of Longoria's, thought the couple were destined to be together forever. "Eva genuinely loved him and thought they'd be together forever. I'm sure she never imagined anything like this would happen," Roman told PopEater in December.
But this isn't the first time an infidelity scandal has plagued the pair. In 2007, a number of tabloids reported that Parker had cheated on Longoria with model Alexandra Paressant. The couple denied the claims and were eventually issued an apology from X17Online, which claimed to have been misled by Paressant.
Longoria and Parker married three years ago. The actress announced her engagement to the San Antonio Spurs point guard in November 2006, and the couple wed in Parker's native France the following year.
Now, Parker is trying to stay focused on the basketball court and move on from the heartbreak. "You have to know how to keep things in perspective," he told Le Parisien. "I am, first of all, a basketball player. I've done this for so very long ... For me, it's been essential to be successful on the court."

- Friday 14 JanuaryBy Chaz Goodman
That's funny, and you are correct. I have two thoughts on this. One, don't people ever try working things out anymore? Seems like as soon as there is trouble, someone files for divorce. Maybe it's because they are rich, and can afford to just move on. It also has to make one wonder if they were ever really in love in the first place. Maybe these Hollywood/pro athlete types aren't really capable of true love. And two, why do they even bother getting married in the first place. Maybe they think it's just a big party, bt when they actually wake-up (figurtively speaking) they realize they actually have to work at maintaining a marriage. Who the hell really knows?

Really, if that's what he's doing while he's married, I'm sure that's what he's doing now. And can you believe his shirt(survivor)? Oh poor thing, let's hope he can 'make sense of it all'. Da. So glad he has his family aroung him to get through this 'hard time' he has brought entirely on himself. I can't imagine how these celebrity athletes expect anyone to feel sorry for them when their spoiled selfishness wrecks their life.

- Friday 14 JanuaryBy Vinnie
In the first place we dont know what happend behind closed doors. She could be beautiful on the outside and cold as ice inside. You have two people that have careers that take them away for extended periods of time. Im sure they both have their groupies that want to get next to them. you have to be a very strong person to be able to fight off the temptation especially if things are not quite right at home. Its not only Athletes either, its actors, singers, politicians and even some religious leaders.

I still remember what a veteran NBA Player said years ago during the Kobe Bryant infidelity scandal when asked by a reporter about infidelity in professional sports. His reponse is something a lot of multi millionaire professional athletes should rememberand pay heed to:

'Is she worth half of everything I own? The answer is always "NO!!!'"

At PBA, you can streamline your education, earning a B.A. and an M. Div. in as little as five years. That's just one year more than a traditional bachelor program. In other words, undergraduate students majoring in biblical and/or ministerial studies can enter the M. Div. early, accelerating their education.
Our 72-hour program presupposes undergraduate studies in Bible and/or ministry. You will not repeat any classes you took at the undergraduate level. PBA's M. Div. will have no Old Testament or New Testament survey courses; no basic church history or theology. M. Div. students begin immediately with upper-level, truly graduate courses.
The M. Div. at PBA integrates academic study with real-life, hands-on ministry throughout the program. Students apply what they learn in classes by serving in local Christian communities under the mentorship of an experienced minister. Make the most of your time: prepare yourself at PBA by studying -- and doing -- ministry.

In this month's issue, you'll learn about Ramanujan's friend and colleague S. Narayana Aiyar, a new kind of dissection problem, some enlightening examples of discontinuous functions, how graph theory can help your dean form compatible committees, and much more.

S. Narayana Aiyar was chief accountant at the Madras Port Trust office, where Ramanujan worked as a clerk in 1912–1914. In this article, a short biography of S. Narayana Aiyar is given, his mathematical contributions are discussed, and his personal and mathematical relationships with Ramanujan are examined and emphasized.
P. Haxell
This paper surveys a collection of results on finding special sets of vertices in graphs with vertex partitions, all of which can viewed as models for "committee-choosing" problems.
Tom M. Apostol and Mamikon A. Mnatsakanian
Classical dissections convert any planar polygonal region onto any other polygonal region having the same area. If two convex polygonal regions are isoparametric, that is, have equal areas and equal perimeters, our main result states that there is always a dissection, called a complete dissection, that converts not only the regions but also their boundaries onto one another. The proof is constructive and provides a general method for complete dissection using frames of constant width. This leads to a new object of study: isoparametric polygonal frames, for which we show that a complete dissection of one convex polygonal frame onto any other always exists. We also show that every complete dissection can be done without flipping any of the pieces.
Giacomo Drago, Pier Domenico Lamberti, and Paolo Toni
We present a selection of a few discontinuous functions and we discuss some pedagogical advantages of using such functions in order to illustrate some basic concepts of mathematical analysis to beginners.
John B. Cosgrave and Karl Dilcher
Starting with Wilson's theorem and its generalization by Gauss, we define a Gauss factorial Nn! to be the product of all positive integers up to N that are relatively prime to n. We present results on the Gauss factorials ((n - 1)/M)n!, and more generally on partial products obtained when the product (n - 1)n! is divided into M equal parts, for integers M ≥ 2. Finally, extensions of the Gauss binomial coefficient theorem are presented in terms of Gauss factorials.
S. P. Glasby
The rationals can be enumerated using Stern-Brocot sequences SBn, Calkin-Wilf sequences CWn, or Farey sequences Fn.We show that the rationals in SBn, CWn, and Fncan be computed using very similar second-order linear recurrence relations. (This, incidentally, obviates the need to compute previous sequences SBi, CWi, Fiwith i < n.)
Semyon N. Litvinov
We prove the Banach-Steinhaus theorem and some of its consequences under the assumption that the underlying space is a topological group of second Baire category.
Michael D. Hirschhorn
We give a simple proof of the identity which for Hardy represented the best of Ramanujan. On the way, we give a new proof of an important identity that Ramanujan stated but did not prove.

Use numbers for effective marketing
By MLIcorp
MLI Marketing
These people do not know you, and you, my friend, are not a trusted source, so why would you expect that marketing campaign to work for you? Is it because it's a cheap way to market? If so, then don't complain — it's working.
Opinions — everyone has them and, as we all know, they are worth what you paid for them. It seems that these days most people are marketing gurus or bright inspirations to which we should hold onto every word. Well, so as not to feel left out of the crowd, I have my opinions as well.
Marketing is still simple. Like everything in life, when you break it down to its core it does not seem to be that overwhelming. How many webinars, seminars, conferences, Facebook and Twitter updates do you need? What no one will tell you is that marketing is numbers, and as we all know this is the group for numbers.
Let me break it down for you. You have to have X number of leads in your pipeline in order to close Y number of cases for you to bring home Z number of bacon. This is accomplished in a number of ways, but it has to be one that works for you and is proven.
Yes, times are changing and social media and email are the new way, but in the course of writing this article I have deleted 50 emails on my phone never to be opened. Again, it is just my opinion, but really that's just what happened.
So the question is how many other people just did the same thing? If your first offer is targeted email then guess what? It will fail.
These people do not know you, and you, my friend, are not a trusted source, so why would you expect that marketing campaign to work for you? Is it because it's a cheap way to market? If so, then don't complain — it's working.
Most top producers are engaged in seminars since this is a trusted way to build your brand first and to gain respect and trust with your prospects. Let's face facts — you're not selling them toasters, you're asking them to trust you with their money. If you're not willing to part with $50,000 from an email or reply to the sender, then why would your prospect?
Everything in marketing as in life has it time and purpose. The multi-channels of marketing are indicators to the response stages of data: first stage, lead; second stage, prospect; and then the third stage, customer.
In the end, you're not a marketing genius, so partner with someone who understands data and can execute at the right intervals of your marketing needs. Also, don't get frustrated since marketing is not a one hit wonder — it is a part of your business and should and will produce qualified leads if you let it.
Moreover, it should not break the bank and should adjust to the levels of your business cash flow. Your first attempt at marketing should be a discussion with your marketing partner about your objectives and what you want your marketing to do for you. In the end, marketing must fit your budget and get you results. If not, then rethink the strategy and look to the data.
Happy hunting.

Review: Kaiser Chiefs at Exeter's Great Hall
Posted: February 26, 2013|
After three years of musical abandonment at Exeter's Great Hall the doors were finally unlocked and flung open for nothing less than a Riot of hits by the great British Punk Rock band "The Kaiser Chiefs".
The Hall has a history of top Pop rock acts such as The Artic Monkeys, Radiohead, U2 and Pink Floyd to mention a few, and this energy fuelled anarchistic band did a fantastic job of resuscitating Exeter's Great hall even though founding member songwriter and drummer Nick Hodgson left the band in late 2012.
The Leeds formed band who have won three Brit awards including best band and NME best Album of the year sold out the 1800 capacity venue .
Chilled frontman Ricky Wilson placed one foot on the stage speaker lent into the crowd and declared how Fu@k!ng great it was to be in Exeter. With family members in the arm waving hyped up crowd he got stuck into Never Miss A Beat and the Exeter audience did themselves proud with a very worthy vocal response . Ricky encouraged the crowds vocals not only from the stage but also from an impromptu act high on the balcony.
The 1800 audience buzzed as the Chiefs played out to Ruby and I Predict a Riot. Kaiser Chiefs spent one night in Exeter but I'm sure the people of Exeter will remember this still inspired British act for a long while to come.

Go ahead, take a few days off. In fact, take the whole week. If you've been working out seriously—three or four times a week, regularly for 6 to 8 weeks—a break might be just what your deltoids ordered. "Then go back with a totally different workout," says Eddie Carrington, fitness director at Bally's Total Fitness. "It will shock your muscles, building them faster." Don't avoid exercise altogether, though: Some light cardio—biking, running—will keep your muscles engaged.

Lindsay Lohan Flashes Major Side Boob, Almost Falls Out of Dress
Gisele Bundchen may have to give up her "Boobs From Brazil" nickname.
Lindsay Lohan didn't give a free peep show, but she came close, flashing more side boob than she probably intended while in Brazil over the weekend.
Check her out here, stepping out of a helicopter as photographers got a photo of her in her maxi dress.
LiLo reportedly made $100,000 for a promotional gig in Brazil, and enjoyed her off-time by partying up a storm. It's no big deal to let it all hang out down there, so maybe her body was just getting into the Brazilian spirit.

I tried to run Unity on a latest stable Debian without success. I get ./main: /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.14' not found (required by ./main)
Whats wrong?

Christian Schmid
Getting the same issue on a few ubuntu variants. All 64 bit installs so far.
Jan 01, 2013 at 04:36 PM MarkFinn
Here too. Debian 64 bit. Not working. Even ia32 libs are installed.
Jan 01, 2013 at 05:34 PM TRDragony
It seems Debian and derivatives (Ubuntu et al) have decreed that for reasons of "purity" the standard 32 bit runtime libraries shall not be allowed pollute their pristine 64-bit installs.
This can be circumvented/fixed/tainted (delete according to ideological preferences and viewpoints) by adding of the ia32 libraries.
on the ubuntu variants I'm stuck working with. Exact commands/package names may vary by OS versions :-(
This hasn't got me fully running on linux yet, but has certainly moved me on to a whole new set of interesting errors when I start trying to fire up networking elements.

Doh. Just saw TRD's comment. Adding ia32 worked for me. (As answered below). Is your error the same as Christian's?
Jan 02, 2013 at 05:39 AM MarkFinn
yes, its exactly the same.

By Kathleen T. RhemAmerican Forces Press Service
BLOEMFONTEIN, South Africa, Feb. 6, 2006 Two top U.S. noncommissioned officers are visiting here this week to attend a conference on empowering and training senior NCOs.
Army Command Sgt. Maj. William J. Gainey, senior enlisted advisor to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Army Command Sgt. Maj. Michael W. Bartelle, senior enlisted leader for U.S. European Command in Stuttgart, Germany, are attending the International Warrant Officers Conference today though Feb. 10 at Tempe Military Base's South African School of Armor.
South Africa and many other countries use the term "warrant officer" to describe senior noncommissioned officers, roughly equivalent to pay grades E-7 through E-9 in the U.S. military services.
"During this conference, the aim and functions and tasks of warrant officers, warrant officer training, and the development of warrant officers will be debated," Warrant Officer 1 Jakes Jacobs, warrant officer of the South African National Defense Force, said yesterday in welcoming representatives from more than 20 countries to the conference. "I believe that we can learn from each other."
Senior representatives of several staunch U.S. allies, including the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada, are in attendance. Many other African nations also sent representatives.
Warrant Officer 1 Dick Walker, warrant officer of the joint support division of the South African National Defense Force, explained today that sergeants major and warrant officers fulfill different roles in different countries, adding that in some countries warrant officers or sergeants major are considered "junior officers."
"Although these sergeant majors operate at different levels, they all have the same aim at whichever level they operate in, and that is to support the commander in ensuring high standards of military professionalism in accordance with military and Department of Defense policies," he told conference attendees.
Walker acknowledged there are vast differences in structure and roles among countries represented at the conference. "Differences will more than likely become the basis for some interesting discussion and probably interesting questions," he said.
Bartelle, the EUCOM senior enlisted leader, said international conferences like this are valuable for the exposure they provide to peers in other militaries. EUCOM has operational responsibility for much of Africa. The Horn of Africa, however, falls under U.S. Central Command, and U.S. Pacific Command is responsible for operations in Madagascar, and island off Africa's east coast.
"If there's any way that we can provide assistance, we'll do that," he said in an interview. "And if there are things that they're doing that may benefit us, we can learn that as well. So the hope is, initially, to make the contacts ... and to also pass on and receive information that could benefit the noncommissioned officer corps all over the place."
In the same interview, Gainey noted that some countries in attendance at the conference are just starting their NCO corps. The Botswana Defense Force, for instance, has been in existence for less than 30 years. Other countries have older militaries, but are just now building professional NCO corps. Still other countries, he added, have established, successful NCO corps.
"It's very important that we be here to learn from one another," Gainey said.

The downtown bus terminal is the biggest sign of change at the Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority.
The $50 million, 30-bay facility, will transform how people ride the bus in Rochester. They'll no longer have to wait outside in the elements on Main Street without access to bathrooms. The bus terminal will bring Wi-Fi, seating and climate-controlled comfort.
Originally slated to open in April 2015, the terminal under construction on Mortimer St. is a few months ahead of schedule.
RGRTA is also trying out more direct routes. It recently launched a Park Avenue line that goes straight to the University of Rochester Medical Center. The agency plotted where U of R workers live and came up with the route, which it says has been successful.
"We'e completely redesigning how our routes run so they're much more direct getting people from where they live to the proper destination, health care, jobs retail schools,' said RGRTA CEO Bill Carpenter on News 8 First at 4.

Six children have been selected to sing the solo portions of the traditional Moravian hymn "Morning Star" at the six Moravian and Moravian Theological Seminary Christmas Vespers services this December.
The Moravian College Choir, conducted by Paula Ring Zerkle, will be featured in the services that will be held December 3-5 and 10-12 in Central Moravian Church, Main and Church streets, Bethlehem.
Members of the Moravian College music department chose the following soloists to sing at the annual vespers program:
Lauren Strohl, 11, daughter of Zoeanne and Rodney Strohl, is a 5th grade student at S.S. Palmer Elementary in Palmerton, Pennsylvania. Lauren is the cousin of Heather Hillegass, a member of the Moravian College choir member. Lauren will be the featured Morning Star soloist at the December 3 service.
David Kemmerer, 10, son of Barbara Doyle Kemmerer and Donald Kemmerer, is a 4th grade student at Governor Wolf Elementary in Bethlehem. Both parents are alumni from the class of '76. David will be the featured Morning Star soloist at the December 4 service.
Brett Wimmer, 11, son of The Reverend Mark Wimmer ('76) and Leesa Wimmer, is a 4th grade student at Quakertown Elementary. Brett will be the featured Morning Star soloist at the December 5 service.
Emily Gasda, 9, daughter of Larry and Elise Gasda, is in the 4th grade at Spring Garden Elementary in Bethlehem. Emily's mother is an alumna from the class of '77 and former member of the Moravian College choir. Emily will be the featured Morning Star soloist at the December 10 service.
Elizabeth Brodt, 9, daughter of Ralph Brodt III ('75) and Christina Brodt, is in the 4th grade at Christ the King School in Coplay, Pennsylvania. Elizabeth will be the featured Morning Star soloist at the December 11 service.
Alex Sevilla Queen, 10, son of Alicia Sevilla and Clifford Queen, is in the 5th grade at Hanover Elementary in Bethlehem. Alex's mother is a faculty member at Moravian College. Alex will be the featured Morning Soloist at the December 12 service.
The Morning Star hymn is traditionally sung with a child soloist and each year auditions are held for the positions. Moravian Theological Seminary graduate Francis Florentine Hagen composed "Morning Star" in 1836.
The soloist, choir, and congregation join in singing the hymn as the church lights are dimmed and the beeswax candles are distributed by members of the college and seminary community. Moravian College's tradition of celebrating the Christmas season with special vespers services dates back to 1742.
Liturgists for the six services will be Dr. Ervin J. Rokke, president of the college and seminary; Dr. David A. Schattscheider, dean and vice president of the seminary; J. Thomas Minor, library director for the college and seminary; Beverly G. Kochard, vice president for student affairs and dean of students; Dennis A. Domchek, senior vice president for administration; and Charles Norman, Chaplain of Moravian College. Presiding during the services will be J. Christian Giesler, Chaplain, Moravian College and Theological Seminary.
During the services, seminary students will read text from the New Testament, college students will read text form the Old Testament, and members of the faculty and administration will offer prayers.
The Christmas Vespers services are held for the immediate college community. Because of overwhelming demand, limited seating is available for the public by ticket only. A limited number of tickets are distributed to those making written requests months in advance.

University Senate Committee on General Education
Congratulations on being selected for the First Year Experience program at WestConn! You are part of an exciting initiative designed to facilitate the academic transition to college by connecting first year students with faculty, services, resources and experiences to ensure success.
We have tried to anticipate some questions you may have and provide answers. If you have additional questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us!
FYE PAQs*
(*Possibly Asked Questions!)
Some of my courses have an "FY" after the course number. What does that mean?
Students take three 100-level general education courses throughout the curriculum specifically designated as First Year Experience ("FY") courses. These courses enroll first year students only and are capped at 22 students per section (most other 100-level general education courses have more students enrolled). FY courses are designed to engage students in the intellectual life of the university, develop effective study skills, and help students explore, discover, and connect with the resources needed to succeed at WestConn.
What makes an FY course different?
FY courses are similar in content to non-FY courses, and they count for the same number of semester hours as non-FY courses. However, FY courses incorporate specific academic skills and activities such as library instruction and/or research, oral communication, and writing, as well as exposure to campus programs and services focused on students success. The smaller class size and integration of co-curricular activities such as public lectures, plays, films, concerts and musical events will assist students in the transition to a university setting, while emphasizing the breadth of the learning community both within and outside the classroom.
Moreover, the courses feature more personalized instruction and provide students with space for active participation. Many First Year courses also make effective use of teamwork and other forms of collaboration, which not only contribute to professional development objectives (much of the work world requires teamwork) but also provides students with an early opportunity to make strong social bonds within the classroom that they can rely on throughout their career at WestConn.
Who is in the FY program?
Last year (academic year 2007 - 2008), one third of the incoming class were randomly selected to participate. In 2008-09, two thirds of the incoming class will be selected, and, finally, in 2009-10 the entire first year class will benefit from the first year experience.
Do students in the FY program have to do anything special?
No and yes. The first year program consists of regular general education classes taught in a different, more interactive way. So participating will not require any additional coursework or contact hours. However, FY students will need to work with an advisor to register for appropriate FY course(s) in the second semester.
What benefits are there to being in the FY program?
Students will have the opportunity to interact with full-time faculty in at least three small-section classes in their first year, and to experience the kinds of relationships and learning activities not often possible in large, introductory classes. By forming relationships and being exposed to the range of resources on campus, students will develop an appreciation and excitement for learning and be better prepared for the future demands of advanced college work.
Who can be contacted for more information?
Patty O'Neill
Coordinator, First Year Experience

What can I say? I am a fan of Paulo Ribenboim, and I avidly look forward to reading his new books. His other works include The Little Book of Big Primes (1991), 13 Lectures on Fermat's Last Theorem (1995), The [New] Book of Prime Number Records (1998), and Fermat's Last Theorem for Amateurs (1999). His writing is almost always clear and warmly wry. Most importantly, he takes special pains to make certain that he includes the most recent results and an extensive bibliography.
So when My Numbers, My Friends came out, I was excited. And this book more than rewarded my anticipation!
Ribenboim is now retired, and treats us to a delightful survey of a few of his favorite numbers, including the ominous 65, which he relates, in a lively discussion in his final chapter Galimatias Arithmeticae, to Euler's numeri idonei. These "idoneal numbers" were convenient to him for proving that certain large numbers are prime. Let n be greater than or equal to 1. Consider the problem of representing numbers q in the form q = x2 + ny2, with x and y coprime positive integers. Some numbers won't have any such representation, some will have only one, and some will have many. Euler called n a numerus idoneus if the fact an odd number q that is uniquely representable in that form implies that q is either a prime or a prime power. Euler found 65 such numbers. It has been proven that there are only finitely many such numbers, and it has since been shown that there can be no more than 66 numeri idonei!
This book has a number of wonderful and wryly-written passages. Its coverage is vast: although much of the material in the lectures can be found in number theory textbooks, Ribenboim has integrated and consolidated so much related material from the literature that each lecture sparkles from its new treatment. As a collection of lectures, one expects to find some dated material. One doesn't! Indeed, the lectures have been brought right up to the publication date!
The topics covered include the Fibonacci numbers and Lucas sequences; continued fractions and representation of real numbers by means of Fibonacci numbers; updated prime number records (of course!); prime number production and cryptography; Euler's prime generating polynomial and its relationship to Gauss and the class number problem and binary quadratic forms. An article discusses consecutive powers: starting from the sequence of squares and cubes of integers in increasing order
4 8 9 16 25 27 36 49 64 81 100 ...
are there consecutive integers other than 8 and 9? Finitely many? How many? Are there three or more consecutive powers? From this question we move on to treatments of the Fermat residue and XU - YV = 1. The book also includes the famous 1093 lecture, which observes that 1093 is the smallest integer satisfying 2 p-1 º 1 (mod p2) and explains how this property has a fascinating relationship to the ABC Conjecture. There are discussions of Fermat's Last Theorem and the Wieferich congruence; transcendental numbers and the Gel'fand-Schneider theorem; and so much more. (References to wine, marriage and the Arctic Ocean will also keep the reader alert!)
However, and this is a big however, the book has all the flavor of having been thrown together far too quickly by the publisher. Instructors considering use of this book should be aware of a few potential pitfalls for students. The publisher's blurb states that these popular lectures "...are thoroughly accessible to everyone with an interest in numbers." Well, the lectures are sometimes written as densely with citations and results as Dickson's History of the Theory of Numbers, and the prerequisites go well beyond having an interest in numbers! This book builds significantly on advanced undergraduate and graduate level knowledge. At times, some obvious results weren't. Like many mathematics books, one reads this book by "rewriting" it, and of course one learns by rederiving the less obvious "obvious" results. But there are other cases where the fault was not the reader's.
I began spotting typos first in equations (a subscript here and there, a division-bar turning into a comma), but then errors in obvious elements of an enumerated set of integers (on page 176, 5 is listed as a power of 2 or 3). But it gets worse: Euler reportedly sent a letter to Goldbach in 1979 on page 281, and there is even a misspelling of the word 'said' as 'siad'. Some phrases are presented as sentences, even though they aren't. don't make sense without guessing. Citations sometimes fail to show up in the chapter's bibliography, and sometimes have disparities in dates between their being referenced in the text and their bibliographic entry proper. These errors, along with a few of Springer's convention of placing fractions having exponents or subscripts in both numerator and denominator inter-linea in reduced type, have proven to distract greatly from the contributions in the text (and also to lay far too much of a burden on the reader).
Ribenboim should not be faulted for these errors, as his eyesight has been failing. An editorial eye is what is missing here. I found myself comparing discussions with those in his prior books, especially his Book of Prime Number Records and his Fermat's Last Theorem for Amateurs. Both of these earlier books are more clearly and better edited than My Numbers, My Friends. Fie on the editor!
There is a great deal to enjoy in this book; I learned a good deal in going through the text. It is well worth the investment!

Back in April we reported on the release of Napster.fm by Ryan Lester, a service which used YouTube to serve up streaming music right in the users' web browser. Ryan released his software under the GPLv3 on GitHub, and thanks in no small part to the notoriety of the Napster name, the service rapidly gained popularity.
In these last two months, Ryan's project has gone through a few changes, not least of which a name change to Peer.fm at the request of current Napster owner Rhapsody. We were recently able to work our way into Ryan's busy schedule to ask a few questions about the past, present, and future, of this interesting and somewhat controversial service.
The Powerbase: Ryan, thanks for taking the time to talk with us. To start off, can you tell our readers a little bit about yourself and your background?
Ryan: Sure Tom, and thanks for your interest in Peer.fm!
I'm a software engineer by trade, currently taking some time off from Carnegie Mellon to work at SpaceX. I can't really talk about SpaceX without violating the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, but it's pretty dope.
I started programming at 15, in the summer of 2007, when my friend Josh (current roommate/co-worker) convinced me to start learning Python with him – though by that time I had already become decently proficient in Bash, which in retrospect I'd more accurately consider to be my first language. From there, I started taking CS classes at school later that year and experimenting on personal projects.
The Powerbase: When did you first become interested in Linux and open source?
Ryan: I first picked up Linux as my daily driver back when I was 14, starting with Ubuntu Edgy. I'd already been using some open source software like Firefox, though, and had been at least vaguely interested in learning more about Linux/FOSS for a while.
The Powerbase: You've recently gone live with Peer.fm (previously, Napster.fm), and it's already generated quite a bit of buzz. What makes Peer.fm different from the options that are already out there? Why should people be excited about it?
- It has some cool social features that aren't all present in its competitors: real-time syncing, real-time view of music played by all other users ("Discovery"), browsing of friends' libraries ("Hot List"), sharing tracks ("Transfer"), IRC-like chat ("Chat")
- Completely free (as in beer and freedom)
- Available everywhere on Earth (cf. Spotify's geographic availability)
- Automatically translated into users' native languages
The Powerbase: Rhapsody requested you change the name of the service, since they own the rights to the original Napster. How was the exchange between you and Rhapsody? Was this your first cease and desist notice?
Ryan: The dispute with Rhapsody isn't fully resolved at the moment, so I can't comment on that, but this wasn't my first cease and desist; I received one from the Wikimedia Foundation last year as well after buying wikpeidia.org (note the misspelling) and hosting fictional articles about some friends at the domain as a joke.
Also, while I wasn't technically the one to receive the cease and desist in this case, I did leak Chrono Trigger: Crimson Echoes a couple years ago.
The Powerbase: Do you regret originally naming the project after Napster? Or do you think it helped get Peer.fm the attention it need to get started?
Ryan: Definitely don't regret it at all; I don't think there's any way it would have grabbed the same level of initial attention without the Napster association.
YouTube Backend
The Powerbase: Peer.fm gets its music from YouTube, which frees it up from the responsibility of hosting potentially illegal tracks. But on the other hand, being beholden to YouTube and its content could be a problem in the long run. Do you worry about a future where Google might actively fight the use of Peer.fm?
Ryan: I've actually fairly recently received an email from YouTube's legal department requesting that I display the source video somewhere in my UI (with which I have complied). Other than that, I'm not worried about further interference.
What could be a potential problem, though, as you mentioned in your original article, is copyright-holders seeing the existence of Peer.fm as greater incentive to actively pursue the removal of infringing works from YouTube.
Open Source Protection
The Powerbase: Putting Peer.fm up on GitHub and licensing it as GPLv3 gives it built-in protection from anyone who might try and shut it down; it will never be possible to completely remove it from the Internet. Do you think this sort of protection through open source could have saved the original Napster?
Ryan: Possibly, though not to the same degree as I believe it could Peer.fm in the hypothetical event of a shutdown. While Napster did use P2P as a means of providing music to users, Napster's infrastructure as described by Jordan Mendelson (Chief Architect of Napster) relied on some fairly complex server-side gymnastics and a pretty hefty centralized data store. If Napster were to have outlived its legal troubles through open source, it would have involved a third party putting in the work to replicate their backend deployment (ideally with a copy of their database, though starting from scratch would have been a viable option) and achieving a modicum of success under non-infringing branding while avoiding the same fate Napster met.
By the time Napster shut down in July of 2001, an armada of roughly interchangeable products had already launched (KaZaA, LimeWire, Morpheus, BearShare, etc.). I'm not sure of the degree to which its competitors of the time shared Napster's social features, but even assuming they had nothing comparable, it's not certain that those features would have been sufficient to give a reincarnated Napster the edge against KaZaA and LimeWire without its former momentum or brand appeal – and even if they were, its competitors could have chosen to take advantage of the open source code and negate that edge.
The devil is in the details, and Peer.fm has a number of significant factors in favor of its resilience against potential shutdown:
- Peer.fm itself is 100% client-side, which radically simplifies the process of standing up an identical clone; anyone can pull the code from GitHub and either run it locally or host it publicly with no extra effort (aside from changing the name/logo).
- Peer.fm's data/content is entirely managed and stored by completely separate and perfectly legitimate services (Firebase, Discogs, YouTube). Because of this, even if Peer.fm were sued into oblivion or acquired and I were to end up in prison or working for a company that had no intention of letting the service continue to exist, any Peer.fm clone would suffer no loss of data or interoperability.
- Peer.fm's music collection isn't subject to the same sort of chicken-and-egg problem a reincarnated Napster (or any new P2P network) would face; whereas a P2P network depends on its users to provide its content, Peer.fm could provide the same music whether it had one user or one million users.
Just to clarify, though, this is all really a moot point as far as Peer.fm is concerned, since (unlike Napster) Peer.fm isn't directly facilitating illegal activity.
The Powerbase: In a similar vein, Peer.fm's open nature means you'll never be able to truly rid the project of its original name; people can continue to distribute it as Napster.fm if they chose. Do you think this might become a problem? Do you believe Rhapsody understands the intricacies of the situation?
Ryan: Well, I could see it being a minor annoyance for Rhapsody, but I don't consider it a problem for me at all. As far as whether Rhapsody fully understands the situation, I think so (I've seen no reason to believe otherwise); it shouldn't be an issue for their legal department to send similar notices to the one I received when/if they become aware of infringing Peer.fm clones.
The Powerbase: GitHub currently shows Peer.fm having 27 forks. Have you been surprised by the reaction to the release of the source code so far?
Ryan: Well, I never expected Peer.fm to receive the initial attention that it did in the first place, so in that sense I certainly didn't expect the reaction that the source code release received. As far as the reaction to the source code given the reaction to the product as a precondition, I haven't been particularly surprised, though I do like that people have been taking advantage of the GitHub Issues system a little more than I'd expected.
The Powerbase: You mention on the Peer.fm site that you're looking for contributors. Has Peer.fm's recent popularity surge sent some developers your way yet?
Ryan: I received two pull requests with fixes for minor styling issues. Otherwise, nope.
The Future
The Powerbase: Do you think the days of storing music on our local devices is behind us? Do you see streaming as the future of digital music?
Ryan: No, I wouldn't say so at all; at a minimum, as solid state storage capacities continue to increase (to the point at which local storage can be universally assumed to be cheaper than bandwidth), I think we should start to see aggressive local caching à la Spotify Offline Mode become the default.
Besides, even once Internet access begins to approach ubiquity on Earth, I'm not sure the Martian colonists will appreciate interplanetary latency in their Peer.fm playlists :).
The Powerbase: Any particular areas where you'd like to improve Peer.fm, or where outside help would be most appreciated?
- Real-time syncing between users is a little glitchy at times
- Notifications of new chat messages and scrolling to bottom of chat windows when new messages are received
- Occasionally, when loading Peer.fm, an unintended line break will appear between the play button and the track slider; a refresh usually makes this go away, but it's mildly annoying that I haven't found a workaround yet (it seems like a timing issue in the Google Closure slider class)
- Probably other minor issues
The Powerbase: What can we expect from Peer.fm in the near future? Any new features or improvements you have in mind?
Ryan: I've admittedly barely had time to touch the code since the end of April, but when I do pick back up where I left off, I plan to focus on the following:
- iTunes import
- Last.fm scrobbling
- Multiple playlists (as opposed to one library per account)
- Sharing of playlists (i.e. Hot List extended to support multiple playlists rather than just one library per user)
- Live streaming of U.S. phone calls through the PRISM REST API
- Mobile support
Thanks to Ryan Lester from taking time away from literal rocket science to speak with us. Good luck to Ryan and the whole team at SpaceX.

I probably shouldn't have used the word "you", by "you" I meant the universal "you" as in everyone but me. I didn't accuse you particularly of slandering the people that play with him, maybe that came across wrong, internet posts often do with little sleep and rushed words. I am also Australian, we use a lot of grammatically incorrect figure of speeches.
I don't think there's anything wrong with being passionate. Frost and I are cool and have already said as much.
I agree, there is certainly no issue and never was.
Personally if I were the greatest lover of rock music I would find it disconcerting to think that future cultures may not even know of an entire genre of music.
Metal has survived and evolved over the past three - four decades depending on your definition of when it actually started. While popular, more so then most people believe, it is a complete anathema of commercial music and has gained little to no acceptance within the academia, despite certain artists making incredible leaps forward stylistically and creatively.
Regardless of the fact that many people still have the opinion that metal is loud noise and that the people that listen to it are troubled teenagers and Satanists, I doubt it will disappear any time soon, regardless of who writes what about it.
A disquiet mind at therapy with the music.

WARRENSBURG - The independent group that assists hundreds of upcounty residents weekly in critical need will be holding its fundraiser soon -and the deadline for reservations is this week.
On Friday May 15, North Country Ministry will hold its annual Spring Gala at the Fort William Henry Resort in Lake George. Tickets for this dinner-dance fundraiser are $50 per person. Entitled Quince de Mayo, the event's music and food this year sports a latin influence.
Reservations for the Spring Gala are required and can be made by contacting Joyce Holwell, P.O. Box 61, Johnsburg, NY 12843, or calling 623-3057. The deadline for reservations is May 5.
In addition to dinner and dancing to the Latin band Sensemaya, the evening will include silent and live auctions conducted by Martin Seelye. Some of the items for bid include an apartment in Paris suitable for a 10-day vacation, tickets to a Red Sox home game, the use of a condominium in Lake Placid for one week, box seats at the Saratoga Race Track, a boat ride and lunch at the Lake George Club, and a day of golf and dinner at Top 'O the World Golf Resort.
That's not all - there are some other creative prizes in the auction, new this year, including a dinner for 10 with Doug Gruse, the Post-Star "Foodie;" and dinner with the "Gospel Gourmet," none other than Father Berardi of Sacred Heart Church in Lake George.
This is North Country's major fundraiser for the year, and the group's representatives hope for substantial attendance so they can exceed their goal of surpassing the $25,000 raised last year. In 2010, 170 people attended the event.
This year, a sit-down dinner replaces the traditional buffet, and meal choices are: chicken breast, haddock, or sirloin of beef with Pico de Gallo sauce on the side.

Idea City 2010 video features talk by Cindy Meston
Posted: September 29, 2010
In June 2010 professor of clinical psychology Cindy Meston, speaking alongside of such luminaries as Margaret Atwood, Judy Collins, and Erica Jong, gave a talk at an Idea City event in Toronto, Canada. Recently she learned that Idea City will be using a portion of her talk as a promotional teaser to purchase tickets for the next Idea City conference to be held in 2011. Idea City is the Canadian equivalent of TED, a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. Each year they invite 50 speakers across all disciplines and walks of life, selling 50 tickets ($5,000/piece) for a 3 day event. Watch video of Dr. Meston's talk | Meston Web Page

I started feeling better yesterday after some good food and a lie-in. So D and I finally got our butts out of the house to walmart to buy him some white shirts. I finally got inspired to dye my hair the way I've been planning. I used Color Rays* in red. It started out very hot pink, but it settled closer to red this morning. I think it'll fade back to pink, but I'm super thrilled with the results right now!

Familial Alzheimer's Gene Alters Children's Brains
In children as young as 9 who carry a presenilin 1 mutation, researchers detect subtle functional and structural brain changes.
Sort By:
In children as young as 9 who carry a presenilin 1 mutation, researchers detect subtle functional and structural brain changes.
By recording from individual human brain cells, researchers find that single neurons can instantly encode associations, showing how rapidly they form memories.
A Phase 2b trial finds that the monoamine oxidase B inhibitor sembragiline missed its primary endpoint.
The scale of cortical folding in mammals—from rodents to humans—is dictated by a simple relationship between surface area and thickness.
The Center for Open Science published eight guidelines for journals to boost transparency and reproducibility in research. Will journals implement them?
One, NF-κB, was thought to be protective but seems to have a detrimental role in ALS.
Live imaging in mice finds that smooth muscle cells on arterioles exclusively control cerebral blood flow.
Worm study suggests that tipping the balance between progranulin and its granulin fragments might promote frontotemporal dementia.
Better known for lowering cholesterol, statins appear to spur the production of neurotrophins in the brain.
In mice harboring both pathogenic α-synuclein and Aβ, the former puts the brakes on plaque formation by the latter. The model could offer insight into what happens in people with mixed pathology.
Live imaging combined with mathematical modeling suggests that dendritic spines in the hippocampus disappear on the same time schedule as short-term memories fade.
The mice, which lack the ALS- and FTD-linked gene in neurons, indicate that C9ORF72 loss of function alone cannot cause neurodegeneration.
The enzyme complex directly cleaves a protein crucial for survival of B cells, debuting a new type of substrate for the protease.
One author falsified figures, prompting the lab to request a retraction.
The model provides the first functional evidence of how the ALS gene UNC13A modifies disease risk.

Lincoln Park Academy in Fort Pierce cancels homecoming dance, leads to outrage on social media
FORT PIERCE, Fla. - Homecoming dances - for high school students it is considered a "rite of passage." But for students at Lincoln Park Academy in Fort Pierce, it is not going to happen this year.
The school's principal has canceled the much-hyped event, which was supposed to be held in December.
Parents, students and former students have since been taking to WPTV's Facebook page with questions and concerns over what they describe as already "low school spirit," as one Facebook user wrote.
The St. Lucie County School District told NewsChannel 5 that there are a number of reasons why the dance has been called off this year.
The main reason for canceling the celebration is over security concerns. The team that organizes the dance, which is made up of teachers, said not enough chaperones have appeared at dances in past years. Officials also said dozens of students show up without student IDs, causing problems at the door.
There have also been complaints that students dance too suggestively and wear risqué clothing that doesn't comply with the dress code.

A 26-second video responding to the Steubenville rape case has gone viral.
The short video, which is titled "A Needed Response," was posted to YouTube on March 22 by Samantha Stendal declaring the clip is "To the Steubenville rapists...or any rapists out there."
(Watch the video at the bottom of this story)
Within five days, the video has generated nearly 1.5 million views with more than 4,700 comments.
It features a young man talking directly to the camera with a girl acting as if she had passed out on the couch behind him.
"Hey, bros. Check who passed out on the couch," Thefeatured fellowsays. "Guess what I'm gonna do to her?"
The video suddenly cuts away as he rests the girl's head under a pillow, covers her up with a blanket and places a glass of water on an end table.
"Real men treat women with respect," he says directly to the camera before the video goes dark.
NBC Newssays Stendal, 19, a University of Oregon film student, directed the video because she was frustrated with the media's coverage of the case.
Earlier this month,two Steubenville teens were convicted of charges connected to the rape of a 16-year-old girl and placed in custody for at least one year.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. A late rally fell just a bit short as the Clarkson University mens hockey team opened the season with a 5-4 loss to Colorado College in a nonconference game at the World Arena Friday night.
Clarkson fell behind 5-1 but scored three goals in the final 16 minutes, 8 seconds of the game to make things anxious for the Tigers, who improved to 10-0-3 lifetime against Clarkson.
Junior captain Ben Sexton cut the lead to one goal after stealing the puck and scoring with 2:34 left in the game.
Jarrett Burton took advantage of a turnover and scored an unassisted goal at 1:11 to tie the game 1-1 for Clarkson.

Our People
Profile: Eboni, Destini & Mahogani Smith
Sophomores Eboni, Destini and Mahogani Smith may hail from Hoover, Ala., but the sisters share a strong love for Mississippi State.
"We have twin friends from high school that came to school here and were in the band, and they convinced my twin Eboni to come," said Mahogani, a special education major. "I wanted to stay and go to school somewhere at home, but our parents (Emanuel and Debra Smith) didn't want us to separate, so I ended up coming here."
"I never was an Alabama or Auburn fan and I wasn't into SEC football or anything like that," she said. "Once I came down here, I was all 'Hail State,'" she added, with a smile.
Destini, who is a year younger, also had her heart set on an in-state school, but said she found herself falling in love with the MSU campus and Starkville's small-town vibe after attending a Preview Day and visiting her sisters during Labor Day weekend. "You feel like you know everybody," the psychology major said.
Eboni, a biomedical engineering major, said she "just loved everything about the campus, especially the people; the (MSU-made) ice cream was like the icing on the cake."
Since arriving at State, all three have been members of the MSU Philharmonia and Starkville-MSU Symphony Orchestra. Mahogani is first-chair cello, Destini plays viola and Eboni is the violinist of the group.
Continuing to perform on their respective instruments—as they have for more than a decade—means a lot to the Smiths. So, too, do the inspiring individuals they've met along the way. All cited one person in particular, assistant professor Gary Packwood, the music department's choral activities director.
"He's just so uplifting," says Mahogani. "He's an inspiration because he tries to help push you in the right direction; it's really good to have people who inspire you to do better."
Packwood "encourages us to continue to play together and do whatever we can to continue to perfect our craft," said Destini.
When other out-of-state students they know or meet are considering Mississippi State, Mahogani said she encourages them to "not think about the money. Think about what you're going to get out of it.
"Even though college is costly," she continued, "I am getting a lot out of it. I would not have traded this experience at Mississippi State for the world."
Destini called it "one of the best decisions I've ever made." And Eboni? "I would make the same decision again."
For this particular family of Smiths, Eboni probably said it best earlier in their conversation: "It's good to know that we're all here together."Writer: Sasha Steinberg | Photo: Megan Bean
