Wondering who makes Heidi Klum's saucy sequined dress? Interested in Kate Hudson's perfect little blazer? Curious about where Rihanna got her pale pink and black dress? We've got all those details-and much more, of course-in today's What Was She Wearing: Answers! Jaime King
Jaime King earned some trendsetting kudos when she attended the Max Azria show in Bryant Park last week. Jamie's dress is, not surprisingly, from Max Azria's Spring 08 collection and will be available for purchase in a few weeks ($360). However, the Squares Print Organza Dress by BCBG has a similar style and you can pre-order it now ($400). The leather jacket King sported comes from KRMA-a brand new Australian-designed clothing line based in LA, check their website for stockists ($549). King's Dolce & Gabbana belt is no longer available, but try the Michael Kors Sutton Leather Belt for a fitting substitute ($395). Before closing, we must draw attention to her stellar shoes. These glossy leather, platform Jimmy Choo Idol Sandals have been very popular with the shoe lover-set and sadly sold out online, but you can call your nearest Jimmy Choo boutique for in-store availability ($775).
Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson showed off style and sophistication at a recent publicity shoot for her film Fool's Gold. As our What Was She Wearing: Answers! story wouldn't be complete without at least one reference to our beloved Shopbop, it delights us to send you there for the frock Hudson modeled at the shoot, Alexander Wang's Sleeveless Pintuck Dress ($451). This dress is also available at ShopJake. If you'd like a pair of strappy white shoes like Miss Hudson's, we recommend Pierre Hardy's Patent Sandals, as they are a worthy investment ($790). To complete this outfit, we must summon Alexander Wang's name and genius designs once more. Hudson is wearing Wang's Treated Linen Blazer as the perfect finishing touch for this outfit ($495).
Heidi Klum
We proudly present you with new face for WWSW, the queen of Project Runway herself, Heidi Klum. While in New York for Fashion Week, Heidi showed some Olsen devotion by wearing four different looks by Elizabeth and James during her stay! In this particular photo, Klum sparkled in the Elizabeth and James Sequin Vacation Dress from the Spring 08 collection, which will be available in early March. As you anxiously await the new E&J clothes arrival in stores, do check out the racerback Sequined Dress in the meantime ($450). Though we love Heidi's hot Stretch Leather Tights by Elise Overland ($1250), you can also achieve the look with the Lamé Leggings from American Apparel in Boa Black ($40). As for her amazing bright blue suede heels, they're Christian Louboutin's Declic and have a hidden platform and slightly pointed toe ($660). Try Jessica Simpson's Brenda Heels
for a less expensive (but still bright blue) shoe ($69).
At WhoWhatWearDaily.com, we enjoy witnessing great celebrity fashion and little thrills us more then when someone in the limelight achieves an inspiring look by means of affordable garments. While leaving a lunch at Da Silvano restaurant in Greenwich Village a few weeks ago, Rihanna proved that you don't have to spend a fortune to look fabulous. To those who inquired on her outfit, it delights us to inform you that her two-tone dress is currently in stock at a store we've grown to depend on for its fashionable, yet reasonably priced pieces-H&M ($49.50). Rihanna wore her dress with a pair of Dries Van Noten boots from a past season, but we found a great alternative for you, the Marc by Marc Jacobs Patent T-Strap Suede Boots ($395). On a side note, we'd also like to point out how awesome her oversized clutch looks-it puts the perfect finishing touch on her chic outfit.

I wrote a few angry words about the Hall of Fame balloting earlier this week. The Hall of Fame is weird – it doesn't matter as far as games on the field, and wins and losses. Rather, it matters as far as telling the story later. And the story it's telling now is nonsensical.
Jayson Stark pretty much nailed it at ESPN when he wrote repeatedly, "It happened."
Jay Jaffe's chat at Baseball Prospectus provides a solid coda on the whole thing.
One of the fascinating parts of this is the way people are twisting and cherry picking data, or writing without data, and relying on assertions. For example, at ESPN, Buster Olney wrote that the Hall needed to permit writers to list more than 10 candidates and that would solve everything. Meanwhile, at Baseball Prospectus, providing a direct rebuttal to Olney, Russell Carleton digs through the data in the voting to find that roughly 1/4 of the voters even used all 10 spots as is suggesting that expanding the ballot past 10 names would have only a very small effect on the voting process.
Ok, back to prospects next week. Promise.

Did your last internet marketing contract give you a major migraine?
Fluffed up deliverables, lengthy reports, overhead charges that you could not comprehend and at the end very little real time value?
On retrospection, your decision to play it safe and walk the mile with the marketing big shot did not bring about the results you expected and you want a change?
Welcome to the new world of marketing. Say hello to A La carte marketing.
A new way of thinking, which true to its name means you can order something from the menu the way you want it served to you. Welcome to a world of unlimited possibilities in making marketing work smartly for you.
Long term marketing contracts are passé. Not only do they consume a lot of your time and money. They bring in additional overheads so that when you cut out all the fluff you get very little compared to the big dent it makes on your budget.
So whether your needs be as big as a multiple media based marketing campaign or something as small as just revamping your website , The Green Loris la carte marketing company offers you the entire gamut of services so that you can pick and choose one based on the specific need of your organisation.
There is absolutely no need to maintain a separate marketing department to concentrate on your marketing needs. You could get the same or perhaps better results at a fraction of the money you are spending on pricey marketing consultants.
From technical support to marketing consultation on how your marketing campaign is shaping up, here are some of the services a typical A La Carte Marketing company offers:
- Creative concept development
- Advertising Campaign: decide your ad strategy or find out how your current one is doing
- Website design
- Brand Building
- Signage design: Design Brochure / Banners , posters, displays etc.
- Social Media Marketing
- Project Management
- Marketing training: train your staff on how on how to carry it forward
- Marketing analytic : Track your marketing performance
- Consulting Services and lots more…
You could also be facing a situation wherein you need only one of the services above to be rethought of in a new way. Maybe you have a great looking website but just want to change the content. You could easily just pick one of the services, namely web content management, get it done afresh and leave the rest of your web solution intact.
In a marketing scenario you need to be very careful about what you change.
In the 80's Coke lost major market share when the company changed the flavour of the drink and introduced it as "New Coke" with a new look. The new flavour was rejected by the public and Coke was forced back to bring back the original taste. This is known as one of the most infamous incidents in marketing history.
In such a situation it makes sense to be careful about the change you make. If your customers identify themselves with a product, it does not make sense to change everything around it .Rather a refreshingly new approach to marketing by a selective pick and choose option is safer and makes marketing sense. Choose and change a part of your marketing solution from the entire list. Get big results without spending big.
Get smart and choose A La Carte… you have the liberty to choose a complete end to end solution or pick and choose a few products from the extensive range of offerings that the company offers.

Submission Twitter Sued $50M For Refusing To Identify Anti-Semitic Users-> 1
redletterdave writes: "After a French civil court ruled on Jan. 24 that Twitter must identify anyone who broke France's hate speech laws, Twitter has since refused to identify the users behind a handful of hateful and anti-Semitic messages, resulting in a $50 million lawsuit. Twitter argues it only needs to comply with US laws and is thus protected by the full scope of the First Amendment and its free speech privileges, but France believes its Internet users should be subject to the country's tighter laws against racist and hateful forms of expression."

This library contains a number of PostgreSQL extension functions, primarily written in C. These include random number generation; generating hash digests; and RSA encryption, decryption, signing, and signature verification.
See y_crypto.sql for description of command arguments and return values. See test.sql for example usage.
All of my development work to date has been done on Linux. I've attempted to avoid architecture specific idioms, but portability has not been my primary concern. You would certainly want to tweak the Makefile compilation parameters to conform to the requirements outlined in the PostgreSQL manual.
This library implements two different algorithms. Use the Blum Blum Shub algorithm for doing strong cryptography. There are strong mathematical proofs for the security of this algorithm, relating to the difficulty of integer factorization.
M is the product of two large random primes: p and q, which are both congruent to 3 (mod 4). On each iteration, the least significant bit of x is concatenated to the random data value being produced.
The random state (i.e. the values of x, p, and q) used by this algorithm is initialized to a set of default values when the module is first loaded. In other words, the random numbers it generates will be perfectly predictable until it is properly seeded. There are three functions to be aware of:
y_bbs_random_seed( INTEGER, INTEGER ) y_bbs_random_octets( INTEGER ) y_bbs_random_range( TEXT )
y_bbs_random_seed takes two arguments: the size of the original value of x, in octets, and the size of the prime numbers p and q, also in octets. This function obtains the specified amount of data from /dev/random, and uses this data to seed the random state used to generate random numbers. The generator is initialized with default values of x, p, q (and by implication M). This means you can start generating random data right away, but the sequence of random data will always be the same every time you initialize the module. Note that on Linux, /dev/random will block until it collects enough entropy, meaning that this seed function may not return for quite some time. This function will return 'true' upon successful completion. Example:
select y_bbs_random_seed( 64, 64 );
y_bbs_random_octets takes an integer argument, and will return the indicated number of octets of random data as a bytea value. Example:
select * from encode( y_bbs_random_octets( 32 ), 'hex' ) as rand;
y_bbs_random_range takes a hexidecimal string as input, setting a maximum upper boundary on the value of the random number returned. The values returned will be in the range 0 to max-1, inclusive.
This code also implements the Mersenne Twister algorithm, as provided by the GMP library. The random state for this algorithm is seeded by /dev/urandom. It produces high quality random numbers, but don't use this algorithm for strong cryptography. Its advantage is speed.
y_mt_random_range( TEXT )
This fuction returns a random value as bytea output. The input argument is a hexidecimal string indicating the maximum upper bound on the on the random number produced. The output will be in the range 0 to max-1, inclusive. Example:
select * from encode( y_mt_random_range( 'ffffffff' ), 'hex' );
y_mhash( BYTEA, TEXT ) e.g. SELECT ENCODE( y_mhash( 'hashme'::BYTEA, 'SHA256' ), 'hex' );
Links to Mhash library by Nikos Mavroyanopoulos and Sascha Schumann to provide PostgreSQL with an extended set of cryptographic hash primitives.
The repertoire of available algorithms currently includes:
Functions here provide low level access to asymetric cryptography primatives. Most library implementations of RSA PKCS #1 v2.1 typically provide additional encoding over and above the raw integer arithmetic. However, my objective is to provide access to the primitive operations directly within PostgreSQL.
A couple of years ago (2007) I wrote my own implemenation of RSA PKCS #1 v2.1. That was educational, and it works, but putting prudence before pride, I have ripped that code out, and instead now link to the better written and better maintained Nettle low-level cryptography library by Niels Möller. It's from Sweden, so I know it's good. :)
This module extends PostgreSQL with the function for creating asymetric key pairs, encryption, decryption, signing, and signature verification. See y_crypto.sql for description of arguments, and test.sql for example usage.
Creating and storing both the public and private halves of a keypair on the server presumes, of course, that the server and its administrator(s) are completely trusted. This would not generally hold true. The better approach would be to generate the key client-side, and then save the public keypair to the server. I plan to add such client code to this project as time permits.
As with most cryptographic operations, the security of this implementation greatly depends on the quality of the random numbers available. The basic attack vector here is that if the seed length of a pseudo random generator is short enough or poor quality, or if the generator's cycle is too short, or is otherwise predictable, then an attacker may be able to recreate the random number sequence used in cryptographic operations, and thereby replay those operations.
This implementation uses the same underlying Blum Blum Shub code described above to create cryptographically strong random numbers. As discussed above, generating high quality randomness demands that you PROPERLY SEED THE GENERATOR.

First - let me apologize for how little I understand on this subject. Please throw knowledge, not flames.
I know that you can get some rough location information from a wireless device by comparing the relative signal strengths of multiple access points (assuming you have set up a signal strength map for your facility). What I'm looking for is the inverse of that where all of the custom programming is on the server as opposed to having signal detection software running in the portable device.
I have a large facility. Can I set up multiple access points in my facility such that my portable device remains connected as I walk around (yes ... I'm not sure of the details but I am sure you can do this) AND have software running on my server that tracks what devices are connected to the access points and the relative signal strength of that portable device across multiple access points.
This would be a passive tracker based strictly on the server, rather than having signal reporting software on the portable devices.

If you think the Information Age has advanced the world and is leading to the pursuit of happiness, think again. Now in my 50s, I am convinced technology is killing our spirit and setting us up for a big fall. And while I don't consider myself a Luddite, my three children might disagree.
I bought an Apple II Plus in 1983. It was a marvel. I still needed a dictionary because Bill Gates had not yet invented MS Word. I even took a week-long class in Seattle, Wash. to learn how to dial-up the Ethernet. It was the precursor to the Internet and was painfully slow. My publisher used to come into my office. He would get frustrated that I couldn't seem to reach a supercomputer like H.A.L. and have every answer to any question. I didn't know that the world was on the brink of that dream.
iPhones Won't Win Friends
Twenty years ago, I bought a Motorola cell phone, which was appropriately called "the brick." It was a serious status symbol and came with a built-in excuse: people could reach me in case there was an emergency.
Today, I don't own a cell phone, and I don't want to. There never does seem to be an emergency; they still make pay phones; and, frankly, it seems like too much work to learn how to operate these devices which have almost every application you can dream of. Now even children own cell phones, so whatever status they had disappeared long ago.
My wife already accuses me of being obsessive-compulsive about checking my email on my PC at work. I have decided that when I get away from the office, I really do want to be away.
Has all this information made us more productive or more intelligent? I don't believe so. When I was a young editor for my father's newsletter, we made his publication special because we did something few other newsletters did. We put in a lot of research. I sometimes would put in the better part of a week at the old Spokane Public Library.
It may have taken me hours to find a fact that can now be retrieved in two minutes on Google. I had to read a lot of books, but the worst of it was going over scores of microfiche or outdated statistic tables. The process was enlightening. It might take a dozen magazines to find what China's gross domestic product was, but in that search I would learn much more.
Today, fifth-graders can look up China's GDP in seconds. That doesn't mean they have an understanding of China or what is happening to that country and to the rest of the world that must compete against it. One-sentence answers abound, but the Information Revolution has created a void when it comes to an understanding of what is really happening.
A year ago, The Wall Street Journal carried this headline: "Does The Internet Make You Dumber?" The story reported: "Today, the Internet grants us easy access to unprecedented amounts of information. But a growing body of scientific evidence suggests that the Net, with its constant distractions and interruptions, is also turning us into scattered and superficial thinkers."
Texting Me Crazy
I dropped off my wife at the grocery store the other day and was driving through the parking lot. A young mother with her baby in a stroller was busy texting on her cell phone when she walked directly in front of my car. I stopped with plenty of room to spare. But had I also been texting, I would have hit the both of them. According to a recently published study by Virginia Tech, people who text while driving are 23 times more likely to be in an accident.
I wonder about the people who show complete and utter disrespect for others by carrying out loud cell-phone conversations while shopping, in elevators or while at the gym. I started going to athletic clubs 35 years ago. They never did turn me into an athlete, but I am convinced working out is a better stress reliever than any pill or shrink. At least it was until people started bringing their cell phones to the gym. I finally got so fed up with people talking about their everyday trivia that I gave up my membership. I now burn calories uninterrupted in a tiny, but quiet, weight room on the main floor of my office building.
As I watch everyday people engaged in their serious conversations that can't wait, I wonder: What job do they have? They don't look like they run a major oil company or are police detectives. Yet they talk and text as if lives depended on it. Most seem oblivious to the world around them and everyone else in it.
The epitome of ego is Twitter, the network for microblogging on which people have the audacity to broadcast instantly any thought that pops into their mind. People love celebrities, so they sign up by the thousands to receive updates by the likes of Charlie Sheen (to find out whether he is still "winning!") and Maria Shriver (to learn her latest thoughts on her cheating husband, Arnold Schwarzenegger).
It all seems like a huge waste of time. None of it makes our children smarter or the workforce more productive. In fact, the Internet and all the personal communication devices that come with it might be doing the opposite. Teachers have had to ban cell-phone use in the classroom. All for good reason, says Nobel Prize-winning neuroscientist Eric Kandel.
According to Kandel, students can pay deep attention to a new piece of information only when they are able to associate it "meaningfully and systematically with knowledge already well established in memory." Such associations are essential, but they don't take place when people are surfing on their laptops, jabbering on their BlackBerrys or texting on their iPhones.
The cold truth is that technology is not the panacea for all that ills us. It is a tool we should control. Yet it seems to controls us.
Yours in good times & bad,
–John Myers

College of Eastern Utah fell just short of sweeping the Colorado Northwestern Community College Spartans in back-to-back double headers Friday and Saturday.
On Friday, the Eagles took the first game 7-1 and followed it up with a 4-3 win.
The pair of wins were the first conference victories for the team this season.
The next day, the Eagles had a late-game comeback after entering the seventh inning behind 3-4.
CEU took game three 5-4.
The streak was broken in game four, though.
According to head coach Scott Madsen, the team didn't bat well and gave up too many runs to start the game.
Colorado closed the series with a 12-2 win.
Overall, CEU rises to 9-17. The Eagles are currently 3-9 in the Scenic West Athletic Conference.
"It was a good weekend," Madsen stated. "We're playing better as a team."
The Eagles will continue the conference season against Salt Lake Community College on March 26 and 27.

A vote for independence from the north is the expected outcome of the referendum in southern Sudan, which was held from 9-15 January 2011. Sudan's fractured history goes much deeper than the more recent killing and displacement in the Darfur region, including two civil wars between the more developed Islamic north and the impoverished tribal south. The latter conflict was mainly over the religious autonomy of the south and division of oil revenues. (The majority of Sudan's oilfields are in the south while refineries and pipelines to the seaports are in the north). The 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement established tentative peace and mandated a referendum for independence.
Some consider the partitioning of a country to be a failure of diplomacy and intergroup contact. For southern Sudan gaining independence, although fraught with many new challenges, might be an opportunity to gain equal status with the north. According to Gordan Allport's intergroup contact hypothesis, equal status is one of the four necessary preconditions for decreasing intergroup prejudice and anxiety. Commentary on Allport's work (Esses, Jackson, Dovidio, & Hodson, 2008) claims that reducing competition for tangible resources and attenuating symbolic conflict over issues such as identity and religion need to happen simultaneously. In fact, decreasing tension over sovereignty and religious freedom might create more political space to negotiate sharing oil revenues.

Clinical Significance
Allergy and diseases caused or complicated by allergy, such as asthma or diseases with symptoms that mimic allergy, are among the most widespread and costly health problems in the world. Traditionally, allergy testing was performed by applying allergens directly to or under the skin. The subsequent appearance of a raised welt indicated sensitivity. However, skin testing carried the risk of serious allergic reaction and was not recommended for young children and or elderly patients.
Although many patients continue to undergo skin (scratch) testing, testing of blood samples for allergen antibodies has been recognized as a viable alternative. Blood testing decreases discomfort for patients and can be performed on patients of all ages, including infants and the elderly. Test results aid in distinguishing allergies from other conditions with similar symptoms, such as colds and other respiratory infections.
Blood allergen testing determines an individual's sensitivity to a given allergen. The test measures IgE (immunoglobulin E), an antibody circulating in the blood when the body is fighting an allergen. Quantitation of blood antibodies is indicator of a patient's sensitivity to a specific allergen. Results are reported in kU/L.
Testing is available for individual allergens or for multi-allergen mixes. Multi-allergen tests do not identify the specific allergen(s) within the mix that may be responsible for a positive result, but do assist with narrowing the search for causative allergic stimuli.
Blood testing can be ordered by the patient's primary care physician or by an allergy specialist. Test results should always be evaluated in combination with a thorough patient history and physical.

Both the Lipscomb men's and women's cross country teams were picked to finish fifth in the Atlantic Sun Conference this fall.
Conference coaches voted on the preseason poll.
This is the highest preseason rating in the NCAA era for the Bisons. For the past three seasons the Bisons had been picked a consistent seventh.
"I think fifth for both the men and women is a very fair starting point for the teams," said Bill Taylor, coach for both the men's and women's teams. "In the history of the program the men have only finished fifth in the A-Sun once and the highest women's finish is sixth.
The fifth place finish ties for the preseason high for the Lady Bisons who were also picked fifth in 2006.
Both teams finished sixth last season in the Atlantic Sun Conference Championships hosted by Lipscomb at the Percy Warner Park course.
"I believe both teams are better than their ranking, probably a lot better, but we will have every opportunity to prove that this season," said Taylor. "It is in our hands, which is a great situation to be in.
"We appear to be greatly improved in talent, depth and development. It will be a fun season and I am excited to see both teams in action and improving."

So everyone starts off by saying goodbye to Akari. Kiyomi is in tears because she thought they'd always be together. Then everyone starts talking about their futures, starting off with Takashi. He's going to try to work in a foreign company. He started thinking about doing that because he met Kiyomi's parents (and Kiyomi is blushing) and they kept asking about his future. Kiyomi is thinking about making her own travel magazine, Asuka just wants to work in a company with clubs, Kanzaki switched hers from pastry chef to working in a foods company. Everyone starts giving Haruto crap for trying to become a chef and Haruto goes home seriously thinking about that dream. Whether or not he should do it. Yuzuki get's back and they start talking about their futures too. She wants to be a teacher, and Haruto thinks how amazing she would be as a gov' official. She talks about Haruto wanting to be a chef but Haruto is worried it will just fail. She then hugs him saying they will think about failing when it happens but says it will not since his food is good. Haruto then get's an email from Akari saying that his lunch was great and that bolstered his confidence.
-The end

By KEVIN SCANNELLSun Advocate Sports Reporter
The Helper Junior High football team waited eight years between celebrating what they strive to accomplish before each season: a league championship.
Last week the Rams accomplished that goal by defeating the Mont Harmon Junior High Pirates 22-8 at the Carbon High football field. With the win, Helper won a share of the Castle Valley Athletic Association title with the San Rafael Bulldogs.
Helper entered the fourth quarter up 16-0, before Mont Harmon began to mount a comeback.
The Pirates scored a touchdown on a short run by running back Dallyn Mower. Mower then took the ball again on the two-point attempt to cut the Rams lead in half to 16-8.
Later in the fourth quarter, after stopping the Rams on a fourth down, the Pirates were unable to move the ball effectively. The hope for a comeback were hurt when the Pirates could not convert on a fourth down, giving the ball back to the Rams with 5:39 left in the game.
Helper wasted no time in trying to put the game away. On two consecutive plays, the Rams scored touchdowns on plays by Ryan Atwood and Johnny O'Hearon. However the plays were nullified due to penalties on the Rams. On the same drive, the Rams narrowly missed scoring again as quarterback Alex Ruiz threw a long pass that was just out of the reach of O'Hearon.
Trying to run out the clock and keep the Pirates offense off the field, the Rams converted on a fourth down with the use of a fake punt by Atwood.
Helper added to their lead with a touchdown by Atwood with less than a minute left to push the lead to 22-8.
The Rams sealed the win and a co-championship when Jacob Allred intercepted a pass.
The players celebrated together on the field after the final whistle. The hard work over the course of the season and enduring a tough season last year made the victory that much sweeter, according to head coach Phil Howa.
"This win...it's big time for Helper," Howa said noting that Helper is the smallest school in the CVAA.
Howa, who just completed his 22nd consecutive year coaching the Helper football team, said the dousing of water he received after the game was well worth it.
"It was awesome," he said.
Helper finished the season with a 5-1 record, with their only loss of the season coming against San Rafael, a close 20-14 defeat.
Despite the loss, the Rams got their revenge in their second game against San Rafael. The Rams defeated the league leading Bulldogs 34-14 to grab a share of first place in the CVAA and in the process they handed the Bulldogs their first loss in three years.
"The kids worked really hard for this. It was a total team effort," Howa said.

Top 3
Gov. Hassan to pick NH's Preston's song if he makes American Idol top 3
MONT VERNON — "American Idol" continues to change the game of the competition, and this time it will allow New Hampshire's governor to decide which song Alex Preston will sing if he makes it to the top three.
Gov. Maggie Hassan is a big fan of Preston, 20, of Mont Vernon, and has repeatedly tweeted encouraging messages to him throughout the competition.
Preston is now one of the final four in the competition, and if he makes it through to next week, Hassan will pick between two songs for his performance on May 14.
"As we are coming down to our last few finalists, we are reaching out to each of the contestants' hometowns for a bit of input into their upcoming song choice," Danielle Stankard, associate producer of "American Idol," wrote in an email to Hassan's press secretary. "As a representative for New Hampshire, we would love Governor Margaret Wood Hassan to represent the state and pick between the two songs."
"American Idol" has chosen two songs that Preston has already successfully performed on the big stage — "Story of my Life" by One Direction, and "A Team" by Ed Sheeran.
"Feel free to poll the office, family, friends and fans to help make the decision," wrote Stankard.
On Saturday, Hassan created a poll on the governor's facebook page to determine which song New Hampshire wants Preston to perform once again.
As of noon on Sunday, the poll had about 520 votes for "Story of my Life," or about 77 percent, while "A Team" garnered 160 votes, or about 23 percent.
"He could sing the phonebook and make it amazing," posted Cindy LaChance Callaghan.
The polling will end at noon today, so New Hampshire residents are being encouraged to take a minute to make their voices heard. Hassan has until 3 p.m. today to submit her decision to producers of the show.
Preston, whose real name is Alex Preston Philbrick, is a graduate of Souhegan High School and a student at the University of New Hampshire. The singer/songwriter has managed to remain out of the bottom vote-getters so far this season on "American Idol."
"If you have a dream, well, you only live once. I know that sounds cliche," Preston said earlier this year while visiting the local high school and performing for the student body. "Why wouldn't you go after something you love?"

As rule-breaking, ridiculously temperamental, totally manipulative teenagers, we had the tendency to say whatever was necessary to achieve our desired results. Would we make curfew? Absolutely. Drive with the music turned to non-earsplitting levels? Definitely. Not change into midriff-baring tops, super low-rise pants, or scandalously short dresses the second we got to our friends' houses? Of course not! Naturally, our folks caught on to our shenanigans quite quickly and we soon learned that actions speak louder than words. Much time has passed since those crazy days, but strangely, that old chestnut is still super relevant and applicable to more than adolescent behavior. In fact, you can apply the "actions" idiom to a number of things-relationships, philanthropy, politics-as well as one of our favorite topics: celebrity beauty.
Much like our fixation on street style, we're completely curious about the hair-and-makeup products favored by these famous faces. We're not talking about red carpet beauty looks-that's a completely separate discussion-rather, the dependable lipstick shades and styling crèmes that they reach for on a day-to-day basis. Interest piqued, we reached out to four fabulous women we regularly cover, asked them to open up their cosmetic kits, and reveal a few of their go-to beauty weapons. After a little pleading, pestering, and praying, we're happy to report that we gathered insider tips and tricks from Erin Wasson, Leighton Meester, Mary-Kate Olsen, and Nicole Richie!
Erin Wasson: John Frieda Frizz-Ease Take Charge Take Charge Mousse ($6)
Effortlessly undone waves are a total conundrum for most women: it's easy to end up with hair that either looks overly styled or a little too rumpled. According to Erin Wasson, the secret to casually cool kink requires two things: John Frieda's Take Charge Mousse and hair guru Harry Josh. Wasson swears by Josh's subtle ministrations for color ("I wouldn't go to anyone else, he makes it look natural.") and her favorite drugstore styling aide for unfussy waves.
Leighton Meester: MAC PRO Longwear Lustre Lipcolor ($21) in Boss Brown, MAC Lustreglass ($14) in Love Nectar, Lancome Color Fever Gloss ($25) in Hotness
The lovely Leighton Meester is a girl after our own hearts: she likes to mix and match her lip glosses to create the perfect custom colors. We approve of this experimental side, especially since she's hit upon such perfect results. When she's not made-up for the cameras, Meester slicks on a combo of Lancome's Star Gloss in Siren with MAC Pro's Longwear Lipcolor, using Boss Brown as a base, with Slave to Pink as a glaze on top. Unfortunately for us (and Meester too!), most of her selections are technically out of stock, but don't worry, we've got the perfect substitutes. First of all, you'll want to pick up Lancome's Color Fever Gloss ($25) in Hotness. Then feel free to adulterate it with the classic MAC Pro Longwear Lustre Lipcolor ($21) in Boss Brown (which used to be paired with Slave To Pink in a limited edition combo) and MAC Lustreglass ($14) in Love Nectar.
Mary-Kate Olsen: Dior 5-Colour Iridescent Eyeshadow ($56) in Goldfever
Mary-Kate Olsen's has a number of highly covetable beauty signatures-flawless skin, voluptuous brows, coolly carefree hair-but we've always wondered about her eye makeup. Olsen often wears shadows in beautifully burnished golden hues and we've long wanted to procure said products for ourselves. Her metallic makeup of choice is Dior's 5-Colour Iridescent Eyeshadow in the limited edition Goldfever palette, which she uses to highlight her cheekbones and the inner corners of her eyes. When we learned that this exact item is no longer produced, we immediately rang the beauty office at Dior, begging them for a suitable substitute. Happily, they suggested a superb swap in the form of Sunset Café and we've been golden girls ever since. You can also try Sephora's Colorful Eye Shadow Palette ($24) in Kiss From to get a similar look at a slightly lower price.
Nicole Richie: MAC Liquid Liner ($16.50) in Boot Black, MAC Eye Shadow ($14.50) in Carbon, MAC 266 Small Angle Brush ($19.50), shu uemura Mini Eyelash Curler ($17), Maybelline Great Lash Mascara ($5) in Very Black
We'll close today's Celebrity Picks story with a liner lesson from the queen of cat-eyes herself: the one and only Nicole Richie. When it comes to artfully executed eyeliner, Richie's simply the best, and, as you'd expect from an expert, she has a detailed list of products and a step-by-step process, which she kindly disclosed for our readers' edification. She starts by applying MAC Liquid Eye Liner ($16.50) in Boot Black along her lash line. Then, after the liner dries, she then emphasizes her handiwork, using a small slanted brush and black eye shadow, specifically MAC's 266 Small Angle Brush ($19.50) and Eye Shadow ($14.50) in Carbon. Next, Richie curls her lashes with shu uemura's Mini Eyelash Curler ($17). She recommends heating the tool with a quick shot of hot air from a hair dryer first, as this will ensure your lashes stay curled. The final touch is a few coats of Maybelline Great Lash Mascara ($5) in Very Black and voila! Perfection, the Richie way.

EU/US transatlantic cooperation: Help SMEs go international Published on: 04/12/2012
Supporting small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in the EU and US to access markets on the other side of the Atlantic is the central topic of the fourth EU-US SME Workshop, in Washington DC, on 3 and 4 December 2012.
At the meeting a Memorandum of Understanding on promoting cooperation between the business support networks Enterprise Europe Network and International Trade Administration was signed today. Specific areas for cooperation include the promotion of SME events and business partnering activities, participation in sectoral or thematic seminars and the exchange of information on SME networking opportunities. SMEs on both sites will profit in the areas of business matchmaking, technology brokerage, and innovation management.
Director General of the European Commission DG Enterprise, Daniel Calleja Crespo, said: "We must think jointly how to help SMEs tapping more fully the economic potential of the global market. If you are "international" you grow faster, you increase employment faster and pay higher wages than non-exporting SME firms."
The EU-US workshop follows on from the objectives described in the Letter of Intent signed by European Commission Vice-President Antonio Tajani and Acting Secretary of Commerce Blank in May 2012.
EU/US exchange views on a modern SME policy
Other topics discussed at meeting addressed policies to support SMEs:
- Crowd funding promising in improving access to finance: Financing new investments is a joint problem of SMEs on both sides. In this context special focus was given to the new crowd financing whereby investors undertake a collective effort in networking and pooling their resources via the Internet. Crowd funding is increasingly used for start-up company funding, inventions development and scientific research. Initial talks were held in order to share views on how the crowd funding market needs to be regulated and how can crowd funding interact with other relevant markets such as business angels and formal venture capital.
- Improved information on standards for products on the other side of the Atlantic: Both sides are exploring the option of a web-based one stop shop, which would inform about relevant standards for market access to certain product groups, entering either the US or the EU market following the successful EU China standard web portal CESIP. Also options for reinforced co-operation on intellectual property rights (IPR) were discussed.
- Promoting entrepreneurship to incite more Europeans and Americans to become their own boss. Discussions highlighted existing programs targeting youth and women SMEs. The U.S. provided an overview on its Start Young Program and background on its Women Business Center Program and its support of 50+ women entrepreneurs.
Role and mapping of clusters: Also policies to promote SMEs by providing them a joint infrastructure (ICT, research, financing and IPR) in clusters were discussed, such as by the European Cluster Alliance.
Background - Scale of EU/US commercial and investment transatlantic contacts:
On both sides of the Atlantic, SMEs account for much more than 90% of the total number of businesses. The similarities are striking in contribution to innovation, turnover and employment (2/3 of new employment in the U.S. in the last 15 years generated by SMEs).
- In goods and services: EU and US are mutually the biggest trading partners with more than €650 billion of annual trade, or €1.8 billion per day.
- The EU goods exported to the US are about three times higher than those to China and seven times more than to Japan.
- The overall investments in stocks are above € 2 trillion
- 15 million jobs are linked to the transatlantic economy.
- Total US investments in the EU are three times higher than in all of Asia while EU investment in the US is eight times higher than our investment in India and China together.

BUFFALO, NY - Erie County's health commissioner says it's the season for the stomach "flu", and there have been a number of cases of the virus around the area.
The CDC estimates 21 million cases pop up in the United States each year. If you're breaking down the odds, 1 in 15 people get the norovirus each year. 80% of the cases happen from November through April.
But there are ways to protect yourself from the very contagious virus.
Dr. Gail Burstein says hand washing is key. Make sure to wash your hands with soap and water often. She recommends lathering up for about 20 seconds each time. If you cannot get to soap and water, an alcohol based sanitizer can work in a pinch - but hand washing is always the best.

This study is a cross sectional study of patients diagnosed with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) and RRMS, who will undergo a series of tests to assess cognitive impairment, fatigue severity and depressive symptoms. Cognitive impairment will be assessed with Multiple Sclerosis Inventory Cognition (MUSIC) and symbol digit modalities test (SDMT), fatigue severity will be measured with the Fatigue Scale for Motor and Cognitive Functions (FSMC) and depressive symptoms with the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). All tests mentioned above are validated for MS patients. In the second step we will use our large longitudinal database of serial MRI examinations from which a linear measurement of CCI will be retrospectively calculated.

|Cohort Study Comparing Corpus Callosum Atrophy as a Marker of Later Development of Cognitive Impairment in Patients With Early and Remitting Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis
- Multiple Sclerosis Inventory Cognition (MUSIC) [ Designated as safety issue: No ]MUSIC is a cognitive screening instrument. It assesses the cognitive core deficit in MS (mental flexibility, attention, information processing speed, memory and inhibitory control) and includes 3 items derived from a factorial analysis to examine cognitive, motor and psychosocial fatigue, respectively.
- Annual Corpus Callosum Index decrease [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Corpus callosum index (CCI) is an easy to use MRI marker for estimating brain atrophy in patients with MS. Demonstrated correlation of CCI and atrophy has been measured with brain parenchymal fraction.
- Corpus callosum Index at baseline [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The CCI at baseline will be measured from MRI findings acquired at diagnosis of clinically isolated syndrome.
- Time to clinically definite MS [ Designated as safety issue: No ]This is the time in months then patients diagnosed with CIS go on to develop clinically definite MS (CDMS). CDMS will be diagnosed if patients fulfill the criteria for remitting relapsing MS according to Poser (Poser 1983) or McDonald (McDonald 2001).
- The Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) [ Designated as safety issue: No ]SDMT is an easily administered brief cognitive performance tests. This test emphasizes working memory and speed processing.
- Ratio treatment duration to disease duration [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The ratio of duration of treatment (DT) to duration of disease (DD): DT/DD. Duration of treatment is the cumulative time of treatment with interferon-beta 1b. Duration of disease starts from the first presentation of MS symptoms

Submission Amazon Now Discounting HarperCollins eBooks->
Nate the greatest writes: Late last week 3 publishers and the Dept of Justice finalized an agreement to settle the claims that the publishers conspired to raise ebook prices. One of the terms of the agreement was that publishers were going to have to allow ebook retailers like Amazon to set the price of ebooks. Today it looks like the new prices have gone into effect. Amazon, B&N, and a small indie ebookstore called BooksonBoard are all offering HarperCollins ebooks at a discount. B&N and Amazon seem to be using the same price book, while BoB is having a 24% off sale.

FOUND by Justin Burch inside a copy of Bob Dylan's John Wesley Harding LP
A couple of years ago I was thumbing through a bargain bin at a local record store and found a mono pressing of Bob Dylan's John Wesley Harding. I was thinking, score!!! Little did I know that the real gem wasn't this beat up copy of a Bob Dylan record, but was a mysterious letter hidden inside. It contains all the makings of a great drama. Depression, unrequited love and a possible shootout in the end!

OGDENSBURG In an attempt to begin a more serious dialogue about possible mergers, the Ogdensburg City School District has requested legislation in Albany to enable it to become a central school district.
Under current regulations, city school districts are unable to merge with neighboring districts to form a new, united entity. Instead, city schools must annex other districts.
The other school district pretty much loses their identity. We dont think thats right, said Ogdensburg Superintendent Timothy M. Vernsey. We think we should be allowed, if we have a partner next door that would like to look into possibly merging the district, to at least have that opportunity.
To that end, state Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton, has introduced legislation on behalf of the Ogdensburg city schools that would enable the district to become a central school.
This is just an option, Mrs. Ritchie said. This is not an absolute. Nothing will go forward until there are agreements at the table and there is community support.
Mrs. Ritchie said the goal is to make Ogdensburg an equal partner in discussions about school mergers and further consolidations of services.
Because Ogdensburg would be required to annex neighboring districts that wanted to consolidate, that kind of stopped the conversation in its place, Mrs. Ritchie said.
This is a way for Ogdensburg to be part of the discussions that are going on, she said.
Assemblywoman Addie J. Russell, D-Theresa, said she finds the legislation interesting.
I wouldnt want it to have the unintended consequence of hurting their school funding, she said.
Mrs. Russell said she plans to devote more time to the legislation next week once state budget deliberations are complete.
Mrs. Ritchie said she doesnt know how Ogdensburg becoming a central school would impact funding but would look into it.
Were just trying to start the conversation, Mrs. Ritchie said.
But Mr. Vernsey said Ogdensburg becoming a central school district wouldnt affect its funding.
It used to be that small city (school districts) got small city aid. But that was taken away quite a few years ago, Mr. Vernsey said.
However, Mr. Vernsey said there is significant state aid if two central school districts merge.
If Ogdensburg were to merge it could only do so with adjacent districts.
Morristown, Heuvelton and Lisbon central schools are the only districts that could merge with Ogdensburg if it became a central school.
Well have to find a partner whos willing to merge, Mr. Vernsey said of the idea.
Mrs. Ritchie said, I will not be moving the bill until there has been discussions with Ogdensburg and those they are partnering with. I will be waiting for feedback from the community.

Price has officially been awarded the Western Boys Baseball (WBBA) title world series for 2005. The announcement came at a recent board of directors meeting in Salt Lake City. The tournament will be played on the little league diamonds at Toy Atwood Complex in North Price. A 12-team affair, the tournament is scheduled the first week in August. The first three days of the meet teams will participate in pool play with the semi-finals and finals the last two days. However, all 12 teams will compete all five days during the week.
In other action taking place at the board meeting Bob Fieldsted, Altamont, was elected president of the association for a two year term and Doug Zumwalt, Salt Lake City, was named vice-president.
Walt Borla, Helper, is the local regional director.
A name change for the association will also take place during the coming year. The word "boys" being dropped from the title. The WBBA designation is being retained with the separation of the word "Baseball" into two words, The move is necessitated in recognition of the many girls taking part in the miniature diamond activity in recent years.
Locally the Price National and Northern Heights leagues have voted to merge under the banner, Carbon WBBA League. This will be the host league for the August tournament. Two teams from the Carbon-Emery region will qualify for the final tournament. Presently Helper, Green River, East Carbon and Wellington are fielding teams in the region, in addition to the Price leagues.
The leagues are presently in the process of organizing their regular league teams and normally begin league play on the first Saturday of May.

Don't get us wrong, we think Apple's headphones are great. The only problem is, you're basically not going to find them in your favorite color, unless of course it's white. But wouldn't it be nice to find some earbuds that not only work with all your Apple gear and sport the same kind of mic and remote your official Apple headphones do, but with a little color choice?
That's where Scosche comes in. The mobile and cell phone accessories maker is well known for its top of the line audio accessories, from big stuff like car stereos, amps and subs, to little gems, like their Chameleon Earbuds with tapLINE II remote and mic.
Compatible with pretty much any Apple device made after 2008 – they work with iPhone, iPod and MacBook – the Chameleon Earbuds are aptly named. That's because each pair comes with three different colors of interchangeable caps that you can easily switch out to suit your mood or style du jour. (We especially like them in the blue, green and grey availability, which are truly reminiscent of an actual chameleon.)
Of course, there's more to these Scosche headphones than just the pretty surface. As you'd expect from any iPhone headphones, they're equipped a remote and microphone in the integrated the tapLINE II control surface. So you can easily switch tracks, play, pause, and control volume, as well as answer and end calls.
Nevermind that you'll get great sound on the cheap with the Chameleon Earbuds – pretty much the best you'll get from any Apple-compatible earbuds with mic. And, just to make your sound that much better, Scosche even offers a free app called tuneQ, which further enhances your listening experience when you use these colorful headphones.
For the money, you probably won't find a more colorful, more reliable or higher quality set of headphones for your Apple devices. And fashion chameleons will rejoice in the freedom of color that comes along with these great little earbuds.

POTSDAM - An Olympic kayaker from Colorado will participate in two separate community forums scheduled for Monday to give the public the chance to offer input on developing a whitewater recreation park in the towns of Canton, Colton and village of Potsdam.
The first session is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. in the village of Potsdams Civic Center Community Room. Another session is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. in SUNY Cantons Goolden Room adjacent to Cheney Dining Hall.
There will be a great deal of information about how a whitewater park can improve the economy of a community, said Canton Economic Development Director Linda M. McQuinn. It will also give us a chance to know what the public thinks of the idea and give us their ideas.
The proposed St. Lawrence Whitewater Park Project is part of the Racquette River Blueway Trail project which received state funding in 2011.
Frederick Hanss, director of Potsdams Planning & Development Department, said anyone interested in whitewater recreation or water-based recreational facilities is encouraged to attend one of the sessions.
Well let people know some of the potential sites in Canton and Potsdam that were looking at. We also want feedback about what should be included in a whitewater park, Mr. Hanss said.
Picnic areas, interpretive signs and bathroom facilities are items that people may like to include.
In Colton, Stone Valley is the site that would be included in the project because its already used by whitewater enthusiasts.
The feasibility study will be assisted by representative from S20 Engineering and Design of Lyons, Colo. who will visit possible park sites in each community to asses their recreational potential and public access.
Scott Shipley, a principal engineer with the company and a veteran of three Olympic games, will participate in the evening forums. Mr. Shipley holds four world kayaking titles and also designed the 2012 Olympic venue and the U.S. National Whitewater Center.
Mr. Hanss said the three communities have to determine whether its economically feasible to move ahead with the project. That analysis will include a marketed assessment and estimated budgets for development, environmental permitting, construction and operations and maintenance.
The cost analysis and market potential will help determine if this moves forward, he said.
The whitewater park project was selected as a priority project by the North Country Regional Economic Development Council in 2011.
People wishing to attend the Canton forum can contact Mrs. McQuinn for parking passes for SUNY Cantons Lot #13. She can be reached at 386-2871, extension 5.

Buses may be safer than babies, at least when it comes to swine flu. Preliminary results from an online flu survey suggest that contact with children poses one of the greatest swine flu risk factors, while the use of public transport seems surprisingly safe.
Plus will soon bring you a package of articles on the maths behind swine flu. But first we would like to know what you think has been the best source of information about swine flu? Did the media do well reporting on the virus? What about government information? Or did you go and see your GP to find out what to do about swine flu? Please let us know by voting in this quick poll, or tell us in more detail what information you found useful, or a nuisance, by leaving a comment on this blog.

Autumn is upon us, and as every year we're anxiously pondering what winter might have in store. According to the Met Office's tentative forecast based on early indications, we're in for a milder winter than last year, with rainfall at or above average. A more definitive forecast is due out in November, but it wouldn't be surprising if the people at the Met Office were a tad nervous about putting their necks out once again. Their April forecast, stating that the UK was "odds-on for a barbecue summer", sent British tempers flaring when July turned out to be one of the wettest on record. In response to the miserable weather, and mounting criticism, the Met Office revealed in August that its earlier optimism had been based on a 65% probability of a hot dry summer, and insisted that it had explained at the time that this forecast did "not rule out the chances of seeing some heavy downpours at times". Too right, you might say, since the overall rainfall for summer 2009 turned out to be 40% above the historical average.
To be fair, the Met's barbecue debacle was down to a failure to communicate its predictions clearly, rather than predictive incompetence.... Read more!

The language of symmetry in Islamic Art
The monthly Maths-Art seminars at the London Knowledge Lab, that explore the connections between mathematics and art, arose out of the Bridges Conference held in London in 2006. In the next seminar, Richard Henry, an artist and teacher with a specialism in Islamic geometric tiling, will talk about practical geometry and the language of symmetry in Islamic art.
"My work draws considerable inspiration from Islamic art, its history, craft techniques and geometrical ideas," says Henry. "I have a deep interest in the mystical philosophy that underlies the art and how this influences the design of Islamic buildings, with their special sense of sublime tranquility that is often experienced. In explaining these I will present images from an extensive field study that I carried out in Iran. I will also discuss the occurrence of non-periodic tilings in medieval Iranian designs, and how these are related to the modern mathematical theory of Penrose tilings."
The methods Henry uses to create his beautiful images are based on some of the earliest geometric methods used in mathematics: "I am particularly interested in practical geometrical methods, using compass and straight edge, for pattern construction for artists and craftspeople, and have explored these in my own works in painting, print and tile-mosaic. In this talk I will illustrate some of these methods for setting out patterns."
The seminar is on Tuesday 13 October 2009, from 6-7.30pm, at the London Knowledge Lab, 23-29 Emerald St, London, WC1N 3QS (travel information & maps). Everyone is welcome and no reservation required, but an email to firstname.lastname@example.com would be appreciated for planning purposes.
You can read more about geometry and art on Plus, including the articles on Roger Penrose and Penrose tilings.

Getting physical with maths
There's a significant intersection between sport fandom and science geekdom, and to address it, John D. Barrow, Professor of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Cambridge, will give a free public talk on physics and sport at the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge. Barrow will look at some applications of physics and simple mathematics to a variety of sports, including aspects of weightlifting, rowing, throwing, jumping, drag car racing, balance sports, and track athletics. He'll also explore some of the paradoxical systems of judging used in ice skating, and the effects of latitude and air resistance on some performances.
The talk will take place on the 13th of October at 6pm in the Pippard lecture theatre at the Cavendish Laboratory, Madingley Road, Cambridge.

Maths is the new black
We at Plus have always known that maths is beautiful, but now even the most aesthetic of worlds, fashion, is taking note. Last week in The Independent, Professor Sandy Black, from the Centre for Fashion Science, London College of Fashion, explained how her mathematical background has enabled her to create complex and unique knitted designs, selling in the most prestigious stores in London, New York and Tokyo.
Black also wrote about some of the exciting future possibilities resulting from weaving together science and fashion. Digital body scanning might not only produce made-to-measure clothes, but might even mean you never have to enter a cramped changing room again and instead virtually check the fit of those new jeans. Wonderland, a project funded by EPSRC that brings together designers and chemists, has created dresses that dissolve in water and packaging that can be turned into a gel used to grow seeds. You can read more in her article.
And if you can't wait for your mathematical fashion, maths has even made it into the Selfridges window display, as photographed last week by Dr Brian Stewart.
