Every American should have broadband access -- that's an idea every faction in the telecom world seems to endorse. Making it so is another thing altogether.
While not everyone has shown their cards yet, major telecom players are sure to air grievances soon over Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski's decade-long plan to get more Americans online. Hearings scheduled on the Hill this week and panels featuring industry lobbyists will provide forums for venting.
In fact, with its aims to spark action from Congress and in the agencies, including heavy lifting at the FCC, the blueprint may also inadvertently pay many telecom lobbyists' salaries over the next few years in a sector that already spends exorbitantly on sway.
Here's a brief overview of a few parts of the plan that will provide fertile ground for disagreement as stakeholders speak up.
Broadcast Lobby Has Spectrum Gripes
The plan recommends that Congress expand the FCC's authority to offer carrots to stations to for surrendering their airwaves. The aim is to free up 300 MHz of spectrum and use it for broadband over the next five years because "scarcity of mobile broadband could mean higher prices, poor service quality [and] an inability for the U.S. to compete internationally," according to the document.
But broadcasters say they fear the plan could hold more sticks than carrots. They are "concerned" that "the plan may in fact not be as voluntary as originally promised," according to the National Association of Broadcasters. Democratic FCC Commissioner Mignon Clyburn has echoed the NAB's concerns, CongressDaily reported. She noted that buyouts might be attractive to women and minority station owners, a prospect that could dilute their voice in the media landscape. These are the tip of the iceberg on spectrum gripes, but the incentives question has dominated the public battle so far.
Wireless companies, for their part, "are extremely pleased that spectrum is recognized as being pivotal to the National Broadband Plan," according to CTIA, the wireless association.
Internet Service Providers To Question Authority
Internet service providers oppose the idea of bolstering the FCC's regulatory power, an idea the plan flirts with but does not go so far as to recommend. Those who want a stronger FCC encourage reclassifying broadband service as a telecommunications service from its current status as an information service, providing the agency with more muscle on broadband issues. The plan says the FCC should "consider [this] and related questions as it moves forward" toward implementation. Groups in favor of reclassifying broadband include consumer advocates who want to see strict Net neutrality rules, including the Media Access Project and Public Knowledge, each of which touted this avenue in Net neutrality comments to the FCC.
Internet service providers worry that this move would give the agency greater authority to make "open Internet" rules aimed at reining in how ISPs manage traffic running over their networks. The proposed rules currently stand on shaky jurisdictional ground and could be further thwarted if a pending decision from the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit comes down on the side of access providers, who hold that "a light touch has been fundamental to the Internet's success to date," as Comcast senior vice president Joe Waz argued recently on the company blog.
Rural Phone Companies Could Make Hay Out Of USF Shift
The plan proposes changes in the Universal Service Fund, which was established by the 1996 Telecommunications Act to wire underserved areas. The plan recommends transitioning the fund from providing phone service subsidies for low-income households to helping to defray the cost of broadband deployment and service in underserved locations. Expect pushback from the rural phone companies currently benefitting from those dollars, who will want a say in how quickly the transition occurs.
Measures To Spark Set-Top Box Competition Unappealing To Dominant Manufacturers
The plan recommends that the FCC take steps to spur competition in the market for television set-top boxes, noting that even though "significant competition and innovation exist for most classes of devices that interact with broadband networks," this one "has not faced substantial competition in recent years." In fact, it says that "two manufacturers control more than 90 percent of the U.S. market and have controlled comparable market shares for many years."
So expect some pushback from those two manufacturers, Motorola and Cisco. Meanwhile, measures to overhaul the set-top box market to make it easier to get online through the television could win praise from Internet companies such as Google. The plan notes that "without the ability to seamlessly integrate Internet video with traditional TV viewing, Internet video devices like Apple TV and Roku have struggled to gain a foothold in U.S. homes."
Action On 'Special Access' Proceedings Could Irk Providers
Companies who depend on "special access" broadband lines have continually urged the FCC to examine the rates incumbent telecommunications carriers charge companies who run data over their high-capacity networks. In its effort to spur policies that foster competition in the broadband market, the plan raises this thorny issue, which is sure to make special access providers such as AT&T and Verizon uncomfortable.
Special access lines provide high-capacity connections between such points as a cell tower and the phone network or a company data center and the broader Internet backbone, and their users claim that network owners overcharge competitors for access to these lines.
NoChokePoints, a coalition of special access users including Sprint, was pleased to see the plan speak to its signature issue. The plan says "special access circuits play a significant role in the availability and pricing of broadband service" and are "critical inputs in the provision of fixed and mobile broadband services in rural America," notes NoChokePoints. It also directs the FCC to act on current special access proceedings, although it does not make a clear stance on the topic.
ISPs May Be Uneasy With New Cybersecurity Measures
The plan says the FCC should increase the amount of information that ISPs must hand over in the event of potential cybersecurity attacks, noting that more data is critical to bolstering the agency's understanding of such threats, including "the causes and how to recover."
ISPs may not like the idea of giving up more information, but opposing cybersecurity measures presents a public relations challenge. So far, providers have striven to seem amenable on the cybersecurity front. Jim Bugel, AT&T's assistant vice president for public safety and homeland security, recently commended the commission "for making [cybersecurity] a top priority for the country," noting that his company "looks forward to working with [it] to address this critical issue."
New Privacy Regs Likely Unwelcome By Google, Others
Applications companies who depend on online ad dollars may not like the plan's foray into privacy questions. The plan notes that "consumers may have limited knowledge (if any) about how their personal data are collected and used" and that the current regulations are "patchwork" and "potentially confusing."
Short of an explicit recommendation to do so, the plan says revising the current Privacy Act "to give consumers more control over their personal data" is a step Congress could take to solve the problem. The suggestion echoes the concerns of consumer advocates, such as the Center for Digital Democracy, who have pushed for stricter rules on such advertising practices as online behavioral targeting.

In an interview with Gothamist yesterday, Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood discusses his solo work, In Rainbows, and the band's wacky new business model. But the best part is when he outs himself as the world's first famous person to think carbon-offset credits are pretty much worthless: "We've heard bad things about them. I'm not sure that that's enough; to buy off our guilt with money."
Plus, by not purchasing carbon credits, Radiohead can channel their unabsolved guilt and anxiety directly back into their albums — that's conservation!

We are excited to announce that the Prosper website has a new look and we have launched some new features that improve the experience for both our borrowers and lenders. The biggest change is that we have eliminated the auction for all new loan listings – from now on listings will have pre-set interest rates.
"While many lenders enjoyed the auction system conceptually, we heard consistent feedback that in practice, auctions made the deployment of funds more time consuming with little gain in lender returns," according to Chris Larsen, Prosper CEO. "We're excited about the many improvements and hope they make your investment and borrowing experience with us even more prosperous."
One of the main benefits for lenders will be a quicker deployment of funds on the platform, and for borrowers they will likely get their loan listing funded sooner as well. An additional implication for lenders is that listings will close as soon as they are 100% funded, so they will need to check the site for new listings regularly. Lenders can also set up automated plans so they can invest in new listings as soon as they are posted.
To learn more about our new pre-set interest rates and other updates, please visit our homepage at Prosper.com.

Buying Guide | Snow Closeout ski helmets
As a general rule, if a Closeout ski helmets does not fit, it serves no purpose. If a Closeout ski helmets does not fit comfortably, it will not be worn. If a Closeout ski helmets is not worn, the likelihood for injury is increased during activities such as skiing and snowboarding.
Fortunately, there are a few simple tests that you can perform to determine whether or not your Closeout ski helmets (or your childs Closeout ski helmets) fits, and fits comfortably. We will get to those in a minute, but first we will conduct a little clarification when it comes to the proces of selecting a Closeout ski helmets for either skiing or snowboarding.
General Closeout ski helmets Information
We will go ahead and get the most common question out of the way, which is, I have a bike Closeout ski helmets/skating Closeout ski helmets can I use that? No, do not use your bike or skating Closeout ski helmets for skiing or snowboarding. There is a very distinct difference in how Closeout ski helmets are designed for specific sports. Closeout ski helmets for snow sports are designed to be multiple impact Closeout ski helmets, capable of handling many crashes over their life span. Comparatively, most bicycle and skating Closeout ski helmets are designed for single impact protection. Meaning one crash and its done. With that being said, we should note that over the past few years, several companies have tried developing multi-sport Closeout ski helmets, aimed at fitting the needs of both summer and winter sport enthusiasts.
Additionally, in a push to get skiers and snowboarders to routinely wear ski helmets, manufacturers have developed many different shell styles to accommodate variances from rider to rider. Styles range from traditional full shell Closeout ski helmets to short shell ski helmets. Features may include audio capabilities, venting systems, visors, and even multi-density shells. Yet all of these features should not take the focus off of the major role of proper fit for a Closeout ski helmets. When it boils down to it, a Closeout ski helmets with audio capabilities is not going to protect you if it does not fit properly.
To ensure that the head is covered, a proper fitting must be conducted. To make certain a ski helmets is fitted correctly there are few simple steps that can be followed. This will not only ensure you do not waist your money, but also ensure that the ski helmets is providing maximum safety for the user.
Step 1:
Measuring the Head Using a cloth measuring tape, wrap the tape around the users head. Place the tape just above the eyebrow, making sure the tape is tight. Take the measurement from the point of overlap. This measurement can now be used with our sizing guide to find the properly sized Closeout ski helmets.
Step 2:
Putting on the Closeout ski Place the front of the Closeout ski helmets just above the eyebrow line. While holding either the ear covers or Closeout ski helmets straps, roll the helmets over the back of the head.
Step 3:
Checking for Gaps All padding from the Closeout ski helmets should be flush against the head. The ear covers or cheek padding should also fit closely. The back of the Closeout ski helmets should fall around the hairline, but not reach the nape of the neck.
Step 4:
Twist Testing Once the Closeout ski helmets is on, fasten the chin strap and make certain everything is snug. Hold the Closeout ski helmets and try to roll it off the back of the head. If the skin on the forehead is being moved then the Closeout ski helmets fits properly. Also, twisting the Closeout ski helmets side-to-side should cause the head to turn, and not allow the helmets to twist on the head.
If the Closeout ski helmets passes these simple requirements then you have found a properly fitting Closeout ski helmets. Many companies will also have a fine tuning system to help compensate for small changes in the padding. One such system is known as In-Form. This system originated in bicycle helmets and utilize a floating carriage at the back of the head. A dial or slide lock allows the user to loosen or tighten the carriage to fine tune the fit of the Closeout ski helmets.
Safety Certifications
CE: The European standard which all helmets must meet or exceed to sold in the European marketplace. ASTM: The safety standard which all Closeout ski helmets must meet or exceed to be sold in the United States marketplace. All Closeout ski helmets found in the United States will meet the ASTM standards. Some helmets will also be marked CE, meaning they meet the standards of both the ASTM and CE.
Full Shell: A full shell helmets is the traditional style of Closeout ski helmets. A full shell design has a hard shell that covers the ears. The covers provide a small increase in protection for the sides of the head, and of course the ears. Most racers will utilize a full shell helmets because most models are compatible with jaw guards.
Soft Shell: A soft shell style Closeout ski helmets has become increasingly popular in the last few years. A soft shell Closeout ski helmets incorporates soft ear covers into a standard Closeout ski helmets design, which has allowed manufacturers to increase the comfort of a Closeout ski helmets, without sacrificing much in the way of
Full Face: This style of helmets is going to provide the most protection available. It uses a solid one-piece shell and molded jaw guard. Comfort and weight are sacrificed, but the full enclosure of the Closeout ski helmets provides maximum protection for the head and face. Given the three basic styles outline above, variations can exist from a features standpoint. Different material can be used for specific applications, different venting systems, and even audio technologies. Here is a quick overview of some of the many items you may see on a Closeout ski helmets when shopping around.
Venting Systems
Your Closeout ski helmets is guaranteed to trap heat and get very warm from time to time. Most manufacturers try to cater to this issue by incorporating some type of venting system into the inner shells. Ventilation designs can range from the very simple to the complex, offering varying levels of comfort. Open Venting: This is the most basic style of venting. This system utilizes grooves or holes that are shaped into the inner shell. This will allow a small amount of heat to escape the head, but it does not offer any type of metastability.
Plug Venting: This venting style builds on the concepts of open venting. Plug venting will typically have additional vent holes built into the inner shell. The primary difference is that the holes will have foam plugs that can be pulled individually to allow ventilation in specific areas. This offers a good amount of adjustability, but it relies on the user keeping track of the plugs. If you choose a Closeout ski helmets with this venting style, be sure you are aware of where your plugs are after you
remove them
Louvered Venting: This venting style takes venting to new heights. With the same number of holes, or possibly a few more, as plug venting, Louvered venting incorporates a sliding mechanism to control the amount of venting that is allowed. Without having to remove anything from the ventilation holes, Louvered venting allows users to control which vents are open, how much they are open, and allows it to be accomplished on the fly. All Closeout ski helmets models with this venting system will offer multiple adjustment pieces so different sections can be adjusted separately. As a final note on venting, you will typically see the styles outline above used independently from one another. However, you may run across a model that incorporates a combination of multiple systems.

With 214 graduates during the 2011-12 academic year (the period of time ranked in the article), Calhoun was listed 44th among the Top 50. Additionally, the college posted the greatest increase in graduates from 2010-11 to 2011-12, at 60%.
"We feel that our increased focus on graduation and completion has been key in the uptick we are seeing in our graduation numbers," commented Calhoun President Marilyn Beck. "The implementation of specific strategies geared toward increasing graduation rates continues to be a major objective in the college's Strategic Plan, and we stress the importance of completion and graduation from the very first day students enter our doors," Beck added.
"Our efforts focused on completion seem to be paying off college-wide." "We had our largest graduating class ever this year, with over 1800 students qualifying and close to 475 actually participating in the graduation ceremonies in May," said Beck.
As was stated in this issue of Community College Week "associate degrees and two-year certificates are central to workforce development efforts across the United States. Despite the fiscal constraints that have negatively impacted appropriations to public institutions, degree and certificate production have improved."
"We are proud that Calhoun continues to be recognized among this region's most successful workforce and economic development engines," Beck said. "Our graduates are quite successful, whether their goal is to transfer to a four-year program or go directly into the workforce as you will find with most of our nursing graduates."

Truro man David Hook charged with stealing luggage from train
Posted: January 09, 2014|
A Truro man has been arrested and charged with stealing luggage from a train in Cornwall.
David Hook, 32, from Kenwyn Street, was arrested by British Transport Police (BTP) officers and charged with theft of a passenger's property.
He has been bailed to attend Truro Magistrates Court on January 30.
The arrest followed a public appeal for information.
A BTP spokesman said: "I would like to thank the public and the local press for their vital assistance in this investigation."

With an ongoing investigation into former CIA chief David Petraeus, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta's office announced there would be a review of ethics training for senior officers.
Pentagon spokesman George Little said Thursday that Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Army Gen. Martin E. Dempsey will work with other joint chiefs to carry out the review, according to a news release.
Little stressed that the ethics review is merely coincidental, following Petraeus's resignation last week after he admitted having an affair, saying it "was going to happen anyway."
"This has been an ongoing discussion," Little said, "reflecting shared concerns." A report will be sent to President Barack Obama by Dec. 1.
The Defense Department said in a statement on Thursday that the "majority of [military] officers lead by example, which is one of the reasons the United States military stands without peer."
Petraeus said on Thursday that the affair was the reason why he stepped down from office, not questions surrounding the September attack on the Benghazi consulate that killed four Americans, according to an interview with HLN television.

"john grisham is about as good a storyteller as we've got. . . . The pages turn. The characters take on their own lives. And at times, as the cotton bolls glisten in the sun, you can't help thinking of other coming-of-age novels from the South:

Product Description
Until that September of 1952, Luke Chandler had never kept a secret or told a single lie. But in the long, hot summer of his seventh year, two groups of migrant workers—and two very dangerous men—came through the
arkansas delta
to work the Chandler cotton farm. And suddenly mysteries are flooding Luke's world. A brutal murder leaves the town seething in gossip and suspicion. A beautiful young woman ignites forbidden passions. A fatherless baby is born. And someone has begun furtively painting the bare clapboards of the Chandler farmhouse, slowly, painstakingly, bathing the run-down structure in gleaming white. And as young Luke watches the world around him, he unravels secrets that could shatter lives—and change his family and his town forever.

Chapter I
The hill people and the Mexicans arrived on the same day. It was a Wednesday, early in September 1952. The Cardinals were five games behind the Dodgers with three weeks to go, and the season looked hopeless. The cotton, however, was waist-high to my father, over my head, and he and my grandfather could be heard before supper whispering words that were seldom heard. It could be a "good crop."
They were farmers, hardworking men who embraced pessimism only when discussing the weather and the crops. There was too much sun, or too much rain, or the threat of floods in the lowlands, or the rising prices of seed and fertilizer, or the uncertainties of the markets. On the most perfect of days, my mother would quietly say to me, "Don't worry. The men will find something to worry about."
Pappy, my grandfather, was worried about the price for labor when we went searching for the hill people. They were paid for every hundred pounds of cotton they picked. The previous year, according to him, it was $1.50 per hundred. He'd already heard rumors that a farmer over in Lake City was offering $1.60.
This played heavily on his mind as we rode to town. He never talked when he drove, and this was because, according to my mother, not much of a driver herself, he was afraid of motorized vehicles. His truck was a 1939 Ford, and with the exception of our old John Deere tractor, it was our sole means of transportation. This was no particular problem except when we drove to church and my mother and grandmother were forced to sit snugly together up front in their Sunday best while my father and I rode in the back, engulfed in dust. Modern sedans were scarce in rural Arkansas.
Pappy drove thirty-seven miles per hour. His theory was that every automobile had a speed at which it ran most efficiently, and through some vaguely defined method he had determined that his old truck should go thirty-seven. My mother said (to me) that it was ridiculous.
She also said he and my father had once fought over whether the truck should go faster. But my father rarely drove it, and if I happened to be riding with him, he would level off at thirty-seven, out of respect for Pappy. My mother said she suspected he drove much faster when he was alone.
We turned onto Highway 135, and, as always, I watched Pappy carefully shift the gears — pressing slowly on the clutch, delicately prodding the stick shift on the steering column — until the truck reached its perfect speed. Then I leaned over to check the speedometer: thirty-seven. He smiled at me as if we both agreed that the truck belonged at that speed.
Highway 135 ran straight and flat through the farm country of the arkansas delta. On both sides as far as I could see, the fields were white with cotton. It was time for the harvest, a wonderful season for me because they turned out school for two months. For my grandfather, though, it was a time of endless worry.
On the right, at the Jordan place, we saw a group of Mexicans working in the field near the road. They were stooped at the waist, their cotton sacks draped behind them, their hands moving deftly through the stalks, tearing off the bolls. Pappy grunted. He didn't like the Jordans because they were Methodists — and Cubs fans. Now that they already had workers in their fields, there was another reason to dislike them.
The distance from our farm to town was fewer than eight miles, but at thirty-seven miles an hour, the trip took twenty minutes. Always twenty minutes, even with little traffic. Pappy didn't believe in passing slower vehicles in front of him. Of course, he was usually the slow one.
Near Black Oak, we caught up to a trailer filled to the top with snowy mounds of freshly picked cotton. A tarp covered the front half, and the Montgomery twins, who were my age, playfully bounced around in all that cotton until they saw us on the road below them. Then they stopped and waved. I waved back, but my grandfather did not. When he drove, he never waved or nodded at folks, and this was, my mother said, because he was afraid to take his hands from the wheel. She said people talked about him behind his back, saying he was rude and arrogant. Personally, I don't think he cared how the gossip ran.
We followed the Montgomery trailer until it turned at the cotton gin. It was pulled by their old Massey Harris tractor, and driven by Frank, the eldest Montgomery boy, who had dropped out of school in the fifth grade and was considered by everyone at church to be headed for serious trouble.
Highway 135 became Main Street for the short stretch it took to negotiate Black Oak. We passed the Black Oak Baptist Church, one of the few times we'd pass without stopping for some type of service. Every store, shop, business, church, even the school, faced Main Street, and on Saturdays the traffic inched along, bumper to bumper, as the country folks flocked to town for their weekly shopping. But it was Wednesday, and when we got into town, we parked in front of Pop and Pearl Watson's grocery store on Main.
I waited on the sidewalk until my grandfather nodded in the direction of the store. That was my cue to go inside and purchase a Tootsie Roll, on credit. It only cost a penny, but it was not a foregone conclusion that I would get one every trip to town. Occasionally, he wouldn't nod, but I would enter the store anyway and loiter around the cash register long enough for Pearl to sneak me one, which always came with strict instructions not to tell my grandfather. She was afraid of him. Eli Chandler was a poor man, but he was intensely proud. He would starve to death before he took free food, which, on his list, included Tootsie Rolls. He would've beaten me with a stick if he knew I had accepted a piece of candy, so Pearl Watson had no trouble swearing me to secrecy.
But this time I got the nod. As always, Pearl was dusting the counter when I entered and gave her a stiff hug. Then I grabbed a Tootsie Roll from the jar next to the cash register. I signed the charge slip with great flair, and Pearl inspected my penmanship. "It's getting better, Luke," she said.
"Not bad for a seven-year-old," I said. Because of my mother, I had been practicing my name in cursive writing for two years. "Where's Pop?" I asked. They were the only adults I knew who insisted I call them by their "first" names, but only in the store when no one else was listening. If a customer walked in, then it was suddenly Mr. and Mrs. Watson. I told no one but my mother this, and she told me she was certain no other child held such privilege.
"In the back, putting up stock," Pearl said. "Where's your grandfather?"
It was Pearl's calling in life to monitor the movements of the town's population, so any question was usually answered with another.
"The Tea Shoppe, checking on the Mexicans. Can I go back there?" I was determined to outquestion her.
"Better not. Y'all using hill people, too?"
"If we can find them. Eli says they don't come down like they used to. He also thinks they're all half crazy. Where's Champ?" Champ was the store's ancient beagle, which never left Pop's side.
Pearl grinned whenever I called my grandfather by his first name. She was about to ask me a question when the small bell clanged as the door opened and closed. A genuine Mexican walked in, alone and timid, as they all seemed to be at first. Pearl nodded politely at the new customer.
I shouted, "
Buenos días, señor!
The Mexican grinned and said sheepishly, "
Buenos días
," before disappearing into the back of the store.
"They're good people," Pearl said under her breath, as if the Mexican spoke English and might be offended by something nice she said. I bit into my Tootsie Roll and chewed it slowly while rewrapping and pocketing the other half.
"Eli's worried about payin' them too much," I said. With a customer in the store, Pearl was suddenly busy again, dusting and straightening around the only cash register.
"Eli worries about everything," she said.
"He's a farmer."
"Are you going to be a farmer?"
"No ma'am. A baseball player."
"For the Cardinals?"
"Of course."
Pearl hummed for a bit while I waited for the Mexican. I had some more Spanish I was anxious to try.
The old wooden shelves were bursting with fresh groceries. I loved the store during picking season because Pop filled it from floor to ceiling. The crops were coming in, and money was changing hands.
Pappy opened the door just wide enough to stick his head in. "Let's go," he said; then, "Howdy, Pearl."
"Howdy, Eli," she said as she patted my head and sent me away.
"Where are the Mexicans?" I asked Pappy when we were outside.
"Should be in later this afternoon."
We got back in the truck and left town in the direction of Jonesboro, where my grandfather always found the hill people.
We parked on the shoulder of the highway, near the intersection of a gravel road. In Pappy's opinion, it was the best spot in the county to catch the hill people. I wasn't so sure. He'd been trying to hire some for a week with no results. We sat on the tailgate in the scorching sun in complete silence for half an hour before the first truck stopped. It was clean and had good tires. If we were lucky enough to find hill people, they would live with us for the next two months. We wanted folks who were neat, and the fact that this truck was much nicer than Pappy's was a good sign.
"Afternoon," Pappy sa...

So here is the first and only tease of my scarf exchange fun. I won't tell you who it is for, but I will tell you that it has lots of cables and it is killing me with how slow it is going. I have 36" done now, and I don't feel that I will ever get it done. Other than the time it is taking, I think it is going rather well. I don't have any mistakes, and I have only dropped the first couple stitches five or so times as I attempted to work the first cable.
On another note entirely, yesterday was the Civil War game...and the final score was terribly upsetting. The Ducks destroyed us, and our hopes of going to the Rose Bowl. I was more upset though that I then had to go back to my apartment, which is directly behind the stadium…. It took me over an hour to get there, and I had to walk 10 blocks (no car traffic towards the stadium.) 50,000 disappointed fans is not fun to walk thru, especially when I forgot and grabbed my green jacket (it is the warmest). Nothing like wearing the wrong teams colors while walking past drunk and angry Beavers fans.
UPDATE: I am almost done, hopefully I will have it done by tomorrow. I am having a problem though. The two colors of yarn I am using will only have a little bit left after I am done with the section (a red one) that I am on. That will put the scarf at just over 60". I will not have enough to make a full set of repeats (I am doing an eight row pattern, six times for each section), but I dont think that I want to make a short section. My buddy said 60-70" was fine...but is 60" a normal length for a scarf? I don't really ever wear them so I have no idea.
Please post a different picture. Looking at your booty is shortcircuiting my brain.
That being said, the scarf looks interesting from the back.. Broad stripes, I hope.
Nice colors, and it looks really soft too. What yarn is it?
Cables must have been popular in the exchange. I put cables on my questionnaire, and my spoilee had cables on his as well. I'm still looking for the perfect yarn, then I'll decide on a pattern. I've got it narrowed down to 4 or 5 patterns, but I'll probably use bits and pieces from various patterns and design my own.
Cables are manly don't ya know ::grins::

The Cardiopulmonary Department is a multifaceted department with a focus on the diagnosis and care of patients with diseases of the heart, lungs, and circulatory system. We provide initial and ongoing clinical assessment to convey to your physician detailed studies of your heart and lungs to help design a treatment plan that's best for you. Contact Cardiopulmonary directly at (207) 373-2261.
Our cardiac services include electrocardiograms, stress tests, echocardiograms, and in-home Holter and cardiac rhythm monitoring.
Our therapeutic and supportive pulmonary services include complete pulmonary function testing, aerosolized medication administration, arterial blood gas co-oximetry analysis, pulse oximetry, oxygen, airway clearance, incentive spirometry, aerosol and humidity therapy, all on an outpatient basis in our Walk-In Clinic.
Electrocardiograms (EKG )
A detailed recording of the electrical activity of the heart. The test records 12 different angles of the heart to detect heart disease, including abnormal rhythms.
In-Home 24-Hour Cardiac Holter Monitoring
Patients wear a 24-hour Holter monitor, which is used for detecting abnormal heart rhythms.
In-Home Cardiac Event Monitoring
Similar to the Holter monitor, patients wear a smaller monitor for an extended period of time to detect abnormal hearts rhythms.
Exercise or Chemical Stress Testing
Patients will be asked to walk on a treadmill or be given a medication to increase their heart rate to unmask the presence of any underlying cardiac disease.
Transthoracic Echocardiograms (TTE)
An echocardiogram, or "echo", is a test that uses high frequency sound waves to obtain images of your heart and its structures. By placing a wand on the chest over the heart, this test can determine how well your heart pumps and how well your heart valves function.
Transesophogeal Echocardiograms (TEE)
A transesophogeal echocardiogram, or "TEE," is a test that uses high frequency sound waves to obtain images of your heart and its structures, by placing an endoscope down the esophagus, while you are sedated. The cardiologist, a trained RN, and the echo-technician are all present during the procedure to ensure patient safety. This test is performed for the same reasons as the TTE, but provides more detailed views of the heart valves.
Stress Echocardiograms
This is a transthoracic Echocardiogram, done with a cardiac stress test, to actually image the heart during stress. This test is done in the presence of a physician.
Complete Pulmonary Function Testing
Spirometry with or without bronchodilators
Lung volumes
Diffusion capacity
Methacholine inhalation challenges
The PFT is a detailed test that measures the mechanics of breathing, and assists in the diagnosis of such pulmonary disorders as asthma, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and many other conditions.
Aerosolized Medication Administration
Inhaled medications are used in the prevention and treatment of reversible airflow obstruction, such as asthma. These provide humidity, or aerosolized moisture, to those patients who need additional humidification to their airways. This is commonly used to induce sputum production for the culture analysis to diagnose infection.
Arterial Blood Gas Analysis
Analysis of arterial and/or mixed venous blood provides information about the pH or acidity of the blood, carbon dioxide or oxygenation status of a patient.
Co-oximetry Analysis
Measures the arterial hemoglobin concentration and concentrations of various hemoglobin derivatives, such as carbon monoxide.
Pulse Oximetry
This is a simple non-invasive method of monitoring the oxygen saturation of the blood.
Oxygen Administration
This is a treatment that provides extra oxygen, which is a drug, to the tissues of the body, through the lungs. Oxygen is provided by nasal cannula or by a facemask.
Airway Clearance Techniques
Such techniques are administered by devices and treatments used to assist patients who are unable to clear pulmonary secretions effectively. Chest Physiotherapy is respiratory treatment to aid in the removal of secretions from the lungs.
Incentive Spirometry
This is done by viewing a small piston chamber, which the patient inhales against, to encourage deep breathing and coughing. Incentive Spirometry can decrease the incidence of pneumonia after surgery.
For more information call (207) 373-2261.

I don't know if I'm remembering correctly, but I think sometime back someone posted a link for a website that shows you colors that go with the color you choose. Does anyone remember this?
Attachments weren't attaching, so the other 6 are combined in this image. The left blue square is a small basketweave pattern and the right blue one is a chevron pattern with knits and purls.
Didn't have too much going on this past weekend so I was able to make several squares and happy that I was able to.
I'm not sorry I had a brief vacation, but I do seem to have missed quite a bit around here.
Jonathan has been keeping me posted on all the lovely words about me here, and I decided that I simply had to write something myself.

It's not overly complicated, but it has a lot of options and hours of fun to be had. Building a quality bridge is a nice medium between challenge and ease. Or you can do like most people probably do, make a horrible bridge, and watch card go crazy trying to traverse it. Great fun for the price.
Very good bridge gamedaraya79 | Dec. 18, 2013 | See all daraya79's reviews »
Rule is simple: Cars must get on the other side. Your job: Drive them safely through Your bridge construction. How it's gonna look like depends only on Your imagination (and some simple physic and engineering rules). There are many games based on that idea but this one is really nice looking.

A very Engaging, Challenging and Satisfying game to Test your Physics and Building Skills. Anyone who like Physics / Puzzle apps should like this one. The Permissions seem OK for the features included. Looks like most of the Negative Reviews were a result of not paying attention to the CREDITS, Developer Info and realizing that the 1st TUTORIA Region is actually the Easy TUTORIAL that is well done. Tutorial teaches methods but will not guide you through every decision on each level. Gets more difficult as you progress and makes you work for enough Achievements to open next Region. You can also REPLAY Levels any time to Change Bridge design and increase scores. Good Replay Value too.

Letters to the editor (01/26/13)
Thanks to the Valencia County commissioners
No one has yet to thank our county commissioners for the savings we'll be receiving once Waste Management starts its county-wide curb waste pick up in April.
I'm a county resident, and have used Waste Management for many years of excellent service. I just paid my bill for April through June 2013. My bill for the three months was $68.12 or $22.70 per month.
Starting in April with the new contract in place, my billing will decrease to a monthly fee of $16.38 ($13.88 to Waste Management and a $2.50 administration fee to the county), a savings of $6.32 per month.
Again, thanks to our county government.

How long are we going to wait for action
There was a popular tune in the 1920-40 period (that) my dad played on our living room piano.
Mom sang "semi-pro" in our community (weddings, funerals, festivals, etc.), and she loved to sing a line or two from "Among My Souvenirs" to us kids … thus the memory.
The point (and my apologies to Mother) is more stringently applied to a notion I subscribe to: the U.S. Congress needs to have a refresher course in things remembered, a.k.a. when times were different.
It's impossible to "sum-up" the tally of poor effort in the fiscal difficulties by grousing about the political parties in Congress! The elected (why that happened is also a mystery) refused to step up and do whatever it takes to meet and resolve the problem without a partisan war.
The House elected Mr. Boehner, again … that'll "change" things, right?
The most interesting fact is those states needing immediate assistance, because of a natural disaster, were summarily ignored by the same "I ain't gonna" bunch until after-the-fact."
How long are the voters (citizens) in the other 41 states going to sit on their hands and dismiss issues as "beyond" their responsibility?
A natural tragedy and the fiscal woes combined, are enough to drive a thinking person crazy. I have written and called the representatives. Have you done the same?
For all our sakes, do your duty, your citizenship may be slipping by the way-side.

It's time for all to come together and govern
I voted against incorporation.
But I believe in democracy and the overwhelming support for prompts me to write this letter.
I'm now all in. There is no other way. So I beseech my fellows:
Think about the invigoration of creating something new. All skills, talents, abilities, experiences become important.
The most is a sense of ownership that empowers cooperation for a common good. You have never been closer to shaping your own destiny.
We, the 5,000 people of this new incorporated entity, have an opportunity to re-create this government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
It won't be any easier than Philly in 1776, but then again, we've had 297 years to think it over.

Finding out information wasn't that difficult
You say you live in Rio Communities and knew nothing about the incorporation until you received a letter about the incorporation?
Mass mailings are very expensive. The incorporation committee raised funds to cover two mass mailings through auctions, dinners, etc. Did you attend any of them?
Are you a member of the Rio Communities Association? If so, do you attend meetings? Do you make an effort to get its newsletters?
Do you read the News-Bulletin? Do you patronize any of the businesses in Rio Communities? Do you read the electronic sign outside the plaza? Do you read any of the posters scattered around Rio Communities?
Your answers must be no to the above questions as information about incorporation has been represented in all of the above venues for months.
Citizens have certain responsibilities to meet in return for the rights they have. To vote for or against an issue carries the responsibility for you to make yourself informed about the issue.
That means that you must actively seek to educate yourself. You cannot simply sit in your home waiting for someone to bring information to your door.
A good citizen is an aware and therefore an informed citizen. What efforts do you make to be a good citizen?

Generosity was a big help this season
On behalf of the Los Lunas Fire Department and the residents of the village of Los Lunas, we would like to thank you for your generous donation.
Your generosity will help distribute 90 food boxes to the village of Los Lunas residents.
We would like to thank Mr. and Mrs. Oliver and family for their donations of 111 toys and a bike. We would also like to thank the village of Los Lunas employees, Walmart Distribution Center, Rasband Dairy, Mr. and Mrs. Huning, and New Mexico State Police Sgt. Frank Casuas.
Your continued generosity is greatly appreciated.

Paris, New Mexico, is a great name
During all the discussion for and against cityhood over here in Rio Communities (which passed 63 percent to 37 percent), I was surprised to discover that the actual name of our new city is farther down the line in the cityhood process.
So I have two points on the matter:
First point is that we should be thinking outside the box or outside the nine dots (whichever metaphor works for you).
Rio Communities is too long, perhaps, and East Belen will never happen.
The best place to deliver your suggestions is at the RCA monthly meetings (see website www.riocommunities.org.)
My second point is my own suggestion. Now I have always wanted to live in Paris, France, but that is probably not going to happen.
Second best is to take the opportunity here and rename this new city across the river from Belen as Paris, New Mexico!
No kidding, this could be great for our image. We can do sister cities with Paris, France, and the 10 other cities named Paris in the United States.
Maybe get an endorsement from Paris Hilton. Build a 40-foot Eiffel Tower where the N.M. 304 meets N.M. 47.
So, please, Valencia County News-Bulletin readers, let's use our creative talents and submit many suggestions, though topping my own suggestion will indeed be difficult.
For as Audrey Hepburn said, "Paris is always a good idea."

Hijinks and hopes
As a homeowner and resident of Rio Communities, I have a problem with something that happened on "Vote To Incorporate Day," and also several things I hope for after incorporation.
On Election Day, I saw some people remove two "Vote No" signs that were posted, along with the "Vote Yes" signs, at the corner of Hillandale Avenue and Manzano Expressway.
One sign was tossed in the ditch, where it still is, and the other was taken away completely. Even better, the second sign was replaced with more "Vote Yes" signs at the same corner.
I hope this example of dirty tactics is not an indicator of our future. I hope the goal of the group of people, that pushed the "Yes" vote is not just to vote for each other to get one of the new taxpayer funded jobs.
I hope that the "Yes" push was not just a ploy for people to start complaining about the neighbors they never really got along with.
I hope that the victors take into consideration the rights and concerns of the one third of the voters who did not want incorporation.
And I also hope that the "Rio Communities" name stays the same, and is not changed into "Friendly" or some other moniker that may indicate we have turned into the "Over 55 Communities."

Back up letters with all the facts
I rarely pay much heed to the letters to the editor section, but I found Laura Sanchez's "Two problems with the letter to the editor" so particularly condescending that I feel that it merits some response.
Mrs. Sanchez first states that a letter to the editor submitted by "a local Tea Party leader" was "mostly astroturf," since it was "lifted word for word from another source" without acknowledging the source.
My understanding of the phrase "astroturf" relates it to an event sponsored by a large organization made to look like a grassroots project, not to written works.
I believe the word Mrs. Sanchez means to use is plagiarism, which is, simply put, using the work of another author without giving due credit.
The evidence she offers for this charge is that the article was "probably" lifted from a website called Sodahead.
Then, Mrs. Sanchez leans heavily on the irony button when she glibly attempts to refute her target's claims without citing any sources of her own.
I think this is the crux of what gets to me about many of the editorials I run into these days.
Writers pontificating with that "what you say is drivel, I have the facts" attitude, yet they are unwilling to put any effort to back up their "facts."
In short, writers like Mrs. Sanchez should be held to the same standard to which they hold the subject of their ire.

ASU offering 'pay-what-you-want' law courses
PHOENIX -- Arizona State University's law school is offering a "pay what you want" program for all online continuing legal education seminars.
Attorneys in Arizona are required to take credits every year to stay up on changes in the law.
"We don't think that continuing education credits should be an impediment to your success," said Douglas Sylvester, dean of the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law. "So we want to provide those at a price you think you can afford, and if that's zero...then again what we're saying is here for you."
A law school should be there for you, for life, he said. Future improvements to the program will be available exclusively for ASU law school graduates. This summer program, available for all, will continue through June 30.
"If you've already come to the law school and you have a JD, it really is incumbent to provide opportunities for you to update that degree throughout your entire career," Sylvester said. "Without asking you to repurchase an entire education."
All proceeds from the program will support student scholarships.

We are PeaceBuilders!
It was wonderful to meet and talk with so many of you on "Meet the Teacher Night". Thank you for taking time out of your busy lives to come in and hear about what we are doing in school each day. The children loved reading the "grades" and comments that you left for them on their "What's in my desk?" sheets.
Here are two more items that I would like to share:
Our school is using the PeaceBuilders program to promote a "safe, positive learning environment" for our students by providing violence prevention and character education lessons. It is our goal to teach children the skills they need to be peaceful, pro-social members of the community.
There are five principles that we will be learning, discussing and using in our class this year. They are:
• Praise People
• Give Up Put-Downs
• Notice Hurts
• Right Wrongs
• Seek Wise People
The whole school also recites the PeaceBuilders' Pledge each morning as part of our daily announcements. This "common language" among staff and students will help to clarify expectations. Please be on the look-out for more PeaceBuilder information to be sent home periodically.
Finally, on a different note, I would like to put together a Team 202 Classroom Directory so you can contact each other easily. Please fill out the slip on the back of the homework sheet and return it to me as soon as possible.

Integration by parts
From Conservapedia
|This article/section deals with mathematical concepts appropriate for a student in late high school or early university.
This article details the method known as Integration by Parts.
Integration by Parts
Integration by parts is a special technique to facilitate the integration of the product of two functions that otherwise lack an obvious integral. This technique can be proven with the product rule.
The rule for integration by parts is stated as follows:[1]
This rule is often useful when one function is a power of x and the other function is a trigonometric function or e raised to a power of x.
Note that it may be necessary to repeat the integration by parts several times, depending on the situation.
Proving Integration by Parts
The proof for Integration by Parts is simple and important. Given:
- f(x)g(x)
It is known from the Product rule that:
- (f(x)g(x))' = f'(x)g(x) + f(x)g'(x)
If both sides are integrated:
By rearranging the terms:
Sometimes, Integration by Parts is simply expressed as:
Using Integration by Parts
Example 1
A common example where integration by parts is needed is this:
Let's set:
- u = x
- dv = sin(x)
We can begin to solve:
- du = dx
- v = − cos(x)
Now we are left with an integral that we do know how to solve:
- = − xcos(x) + sin(x) + C
Example 2
Say that we are given:
Let's set:
- u = sin(x)
- dv = exdx
And continue solving:
- du = cos(x)dx
- v = ex
And continue solving:
Now, we set:
- u = cos(x)
- dv = exdx
And continue solving:
- du = − sin(x)dx
- v = ex
Let's look back at what we have done:
The integral of the function has the integral of itself ... inside itself. This is actually a common occurrence with functions like the one we are solving. However, we can cheat the never-ending cycle of integrals by doing this:
Rapid Repeated Integration
Rapid Repeated Integration is a shortcut method for reduction problems that require Integration by Parts. It is especially useful when one function's derivative reduces to zero.
Example 3
For example, integrating:
We start off by making a table of x4 and sin(x). On the first column, the derivatives of x4 are taken until they reach zero. In the second column, sin(x) is integrated once down each row:
|− cos(x)
|− sin(x)
|− cos(x)
Terms are multiplied diagonally from the left to the right and we add the product to the product of the next product, alternating signs with each step.
The first term, for example, is:
- (x4)( − cos(x)) = − x4cos(x)
So then the integral becomes:
- =
- =
While this method is very useful when part of the integrand becomes zero through derivation, it does not work in cases such as Example 2 above.

Erica Baum: Dog Ear
There are many, many things I love about Erica Baum's Dog Ear. The poetic simplicity of words leaning off a diagonal edge, literally at right angles to their original context and isolated within their koncrete-like square, forming something more significant in their happy chance. There is also that pleasing element of library, second hand or borrowed books when past readers leave traces in creases at the corner of a page.

New Vin Diesel Riddick Movie Still is Intense
Take a look at the new movie still at Vin Diesel Riddick and feel the intensity. You bet I am waiting to see this installment of Riddick. David Twohy returns to write the script after already writing the scripts for past Riddick movies; The Chronicles of Riddick and Pitch Black. I need a trailer now Vin Diesel; get on them to get something else out because we want more!
Joining Diesel are a returning Karl Urban (Star Trek) as Vaako; Jordi Molla as Santana, the arrogant captain of the mercenary ship; Matt Nable (Killer Elite) as Boss Johns, a man looking for answers; Katee Sackhoff (TV's "Battlestar Galactica") as the Nordic mercenary Dahl; and Bokeem Woodbine (Total Recall) as bounty hunter Moss. Rounding out the cast are Dave Bautista (The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption), Conrad Pla (Immortals), Raoul Trujillo (Apocalypto), Nolan Funk (Aliens in America), and two-time Grammy Award-nominated singer Keri Hilson.
Diesel reprises his role as the antihero Riddick, a dangerous, escaped convict wanted by every bounty hunter in the known galaxy. The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he's encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty.
The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won't leave the planet without Riddick's head as their trophy.

You can't say Obama isn't bringing people together. The Obami's favorite leftist think tank, the Center for American Progress, says that Obama's gambit to close Guantanamo was characterized by "a series of mistakes and missteps by his administration that will delay the prison's closure for months." The center chides the administration for not really thinking things through. Not enough staff, no game plan once the closure policy was announced, and no push-back against the "fear-mongering" (that would be the opposition of the vast majority of the American people to moving terrorists to U.S. soil). And naturally, our allies didn't want to help out:
"Many American allies are willing to help the United States and accept detainees, but quite reasonably expected the United States to share in the responsibility," [Center scholar Ken] Gude wrote. "It is a hard sell for America's allies to tell their citizens that they are accepting Guantanamo detainees even though the U.S. Congress feels that they are too dangerous for release in America."
The center thinks closing Guantanamo is a grand idea, just ineptly executed. So the suggestion is to move back the deadline (no problem for an administration that doesn't take deadlines all that seriously, at least when dealing with the Iranian mullahs), send the detainees to federal court, and send those convicted to SuperMax prisons or Bagram in Afghanistan (which perhaps can duplicate at great expense the exact facilities already in place at Guantanamo). Well, the prescription may not be acceptable to the American people or to Congress, but they got one thing right: Guantanamo isn't closing anytime soon.
Once again the smart set, the team of geniuses, proved to be startlingly inept. Filled with hubris and moral righteousness, Obama announced a policy with no political support and no game plan for implementation. The public and Congress balked, but their concerns were given the back of the hand. False choices between our values and national security, the Obami sniffed. As with its failed effort at Iranian engagement and its disastrous approach to the Middle East "peace process," the administration's ill-conceived Guantanamo scheme has faltered. It seems that campaign one-liners are no substitute for good governance.
