Firstly it was bonus payments for bankers seen as largely responsible for the 'credit crunch', and then excessive expenses claims by members of parliament (MPs).
Although these activities were not necessarily illegal, the British public has been enthusiastically encouraged by the press to denounce them as immoral.
This common view that dubious morality is endemic amongst those in positions of power has been highlighted recently by the ironic election success of a Croatian politician with a campaign slogan of 'All for me, nothing for you'.
From a psychological perspective, such beliefs illustrate the ultimate attribution error, where negative behaviours of individual members are seen as typical of an entire out-group.
On closer inspection, however, this simple moral dichotomy is more complex than it may first appear. For example, MP's expenses have been likened to so-called 'Spanish practices', a derogatory British term that continues to be surprisingly widely-used despite its racist implications. Such practices are questionable non-contractual working arrangements that benefit the employee and have become accepted as normal over time. These typically occur within heavily unionised industries, and have previously been the subject of industrial disputes.
Rather ironically then, many of those claiming the moral high-ground in terms of MP's expenses commonly take advantage of exactly the same kind of 'unofficial benefits', suggesting that morality is a somewhat flexible concept.
Interestingly, the very term (mis-)used to describe these practices is a further example of the ultimate attribution error, being one of a number of historic British slurs attributing negative behaviours to foreign nationality out-groups.

The SafeWise Report Announces the 30 Safest Cities in Indiana
The SafeWise Report released its "30 Safest Cities in Indiana" report this week. To compile this report, SafeWise used the most recent FBI crime data from 2013 to analyze and rank these cities, which all have a minimum population of 4,000 people.
"The Hoosier State's safest cities have a lot to be proud of when it comes to keeping neighborhoods safe," SafeWise security analyst Alexia Chianis said. "We were impressed to see that 75 percent of cities that made our list for 2015 also made last year's."

An attorney for the U.S. government is resisting a court's order that the FBI give the defense documents related to the death of Trayvon Martin.
The judge in the George Zimmerman murder case has "no power or authority" to order the FBI to turn over documents to Zimmerman's defense, the government argued in an objection filed Monday.
Federal law and regulations prohibit the agency from turning over the records without Department of Justice approval, according to the U.S. Attorney's office in Tampa.
Federal law is "supreme," the government argues, so Judge Deborah Nelson should rescind her order that they share records with Zimmerman's defense.
The government said it has assisted the defense in how to make "a proper request for documents," but the court filing does not say the government would provide the records even if a proper request were made.
The FBI investigated whether Zimmerman acted with racial bias when he shot and killed Trayvon Martin last year. It found insufficient evidence to charge Zimmerman with a federal violation of Martin's civil rights.

15 U.S. Code § 1691 - Scope of prohibition
prev | next
(a) Activities constituting discrimination
It shall be unlawful for any creditor to discriminate against any applicant, with respect to any aspect of a credit transaction—
(1) on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex or marital status, or age (provided the applicant has the capacity to contract);
(b) Activities not constituting discrimination
It shall not constitute discrimination for purposes of this subchapter for a creditor—
(1) to make an inquiry of marital status if such inquiry is for the purpose of ascertaining the creditor's rights and remedies applicable to the particular extension of credit and not to discriminate in a determination of credit-worthiness;
(2) to make an inquiry of the applicant's age or of whether the applicant's income derives from any public assistance program if such inquiry is for the purpose of determining the amount and probable continuance of income levels, credit history, or other pertinent element of credit-worthiness as provided in regulations of the Bureau;
(3) to use any empirically derived credit system which considers age if such system is demonstrably and statistically sound in accordance with regulations of the Bureau, except that in the operation of such system the age of an elderly applicant may not be assigned a negative factor or value;
(4) to make an inquiry or to consider the age of an elderly applicant when the age of such applicant is to be used by the creditor in the extension of credit in favor of such applicant; or
(5) to make an inquiry under section 1691c–2 of this title, in accordance with the requirements of that section.
(c) Additional activities not constituting discrimination
It is not a violation of this section for a creditor to refuse to extend credit offered pursuant to—
(1) any credit assistance program expressly authorized by law for an economically disadvantaged class of persons;
(2) any credit assistance program administered by a nonprofit organization for its members or an economically disadvantaged class of persons; or
(3) any special purpose credit program offered by a profit-making organization to meet special social needs which meets standards prescribed in regulations by the Bureau;
if such refusal is required by or made pursuant to such program.
(d) Reason for adverse action; procedure applicable; "adverse action" defined
(1) Within thirty days (or such longer reasonable time as specified in regulations of the Bureau for any class of credit transaction) after receipt of a completed application for credit, a creditor shall notify the applicant of its action on the application.
(2) Each applicant against whom adverse action is taken shall be entitled to a statement of reasons for such action from the creditor. A creditor satisfies this obligation by—
(A) providing statements of reasons in writing as a matter of course to applicants against whom adverse action is taken; or
(B) giving written notification of adverse action which discloses
(i) the applicant's right to a statement of reasons within thirty days after receipt by the creditor of a request made within sixty days after such notification, and
(ii) the identity of the person or office from which such statement may be obtained. Such statement may be given orally if the written notification advises the applicant of his right to have the statement of reasons confirmed in writing on written request.
(3) A statement of reasons meets the requirements of this section only if it contains the specific reasons for the adverse action taken.
(4) Where a creditor has been requested by a third party to make a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly to an applicant, the notification and statement of reasons required by this subsection may be made directly by such creditor, or indirectly through the third party, provided in either case that the identity of the creditor is disclosed.
(5) The requirements of paragraph (2), (3), or (4) may be satisfied by verbal statements or notifications in the case of any creditor who did not act on more than one hundred and fifty applications during the calendar year preceding the calendar year in which the adverse action is taken, as determined under regulations of the Bureau.
(6) For purposes of this subsection, the term "adverse action" means a denial or revocation of credit, a change in the terms of an existing credit arrangement, or a refusal to grant credit in substantially the amount or on substantially the terms requested. Such term does not include a refusal to extend additional credit under an existing credit arrangement where the applicant is delinquent or otherwise in default, or where such additional credit would exceed a previously established credit limit.
(e) Copies furnished to applicants
(1) In general
Each creditor shall furnish to an applicant a copy of any and all written appraisals and valuations developed in connection with the applicant's application for a loan that is secured or would have been secured by a first lien on a dwelling promptly upon completion, but in no case later than 3 days prior to the closing of the loan, whether the creditor grants or denies the applicant's request for credit or the application is incomplete or withdrawn.
(2) Waiver
The applicant may waive the 3 day requirement provided for in paragraph (1), except where otherwise required in law.
(3) Reimbursement
"The applicant may be required to pay a reasonable fee to reimburse the creditor for the cost of the appraisal, except where otherwise required in law.
(4) Free copy
Notwithstanding paragraph (3), the creditor shall provide a copy of each written appraisal or valuation at no additional cost to the applicant.
(5) Notification to applicants
At the time of application, the creditor shall notify an applicant in writing of the right to receive a copy of each written appraisal and valuation under this subsection.
(6) Valuation defined
For purposes of this subsection, the term "valuation" shall include any estimate of the value of a dwelling developed in connection with a creditor's decision to provide credit, including those values developed pursuant to a policy of a government sponsored enterprise or by an automated valuation model, a broker price opinion, or other methodology or mechanism.

Debugging scripts
The Scripts panel of the Web Inspector allows you to debug the JavaScript code used by your webpage. By allowing you to set breakpoints and to step through your code, the Web Inspector can help to locate and correct problems within your code. When you determine that the script is functioning as intended, you can copy the changes back into the source file.
To use the Scripts panel, you must first enable debugging. The Web Inspector prompts you to enable debugging when you first view the Scripts panel; you can choose to enable debugging for just the current session, or to always enable debugging.
The Scripts panel
You can click the Scripts icon in the toolbar to display the Scripts panel. If you have not already enabled debugging, the Web Inspector prompts you to do so.
The Scripts panel is divided into two sections. On the left is the document pane, which allows you to view and debug JavaScript. On the right is a set of collapsible panes which display information related to the displayed script.
A toolbar at the top of the Scripts panel allows you to choose the script file you want to inspect and to cycle between open scripts. It also provides a set of controls that allow you to step through the script displayed in the document pane.
Set and use breakpoints
- Click the Scripts icon on the toolbar to display the Scripts panel.
- In the line gutter of the document pane, click the line at which you want to set a breakpoint. A breakpoint marker appears in the line gutter, and the new breakpoint is added to the Breakpoints pane, identified by the script filename and line number. The execution of the script pauses at the specified breakpoint.
Perform and of the following actions:
- To continue the execution of the script beyond the current breakpoint, click the Continue button in the Scripts panel toolbar.
- To display the line of code associated with breakpoint in the documents pane, click the breakpoint entry in the Breakpoints pane. The document pane displays and highlights the associated line.
- To disable a single breakpoint without removing it, in the Breakpoints pane, uncheck the break point. The execution of the script no longer pauses at the disabled breakpoint.
- To deactivate or activate all the breakpoints listed in the Breakpoints pane without removing them, toggle the breakpoint activation switch at the right side of the Scripts panel toolbar.
- To remove a breakpoint, locate and click the breakpoint marker in the line gutter of the document pane. The marker no longer appears in the line gutter, and the breakpoint is removed from the Breakpoints pane.
Pause script execution
Pause script execution on exceptions
- Click the Scripts icon on the toolbar to display the Scripts panel.
- Use the Exceptions button in the status bar at the bottom of the Web Inspector to choose one of the following behaviors.

If you have several million lines of Delphi code and want to incrementally migrate to .NET/C#, what strategy would you use?
The original authors of the refactoring browser and rewrite engine and the SmaCC compiler construction framework described how they transformed a 1.5 million lines Delphi program with 4 (extremely experienced) developers in 18 months. They wrote a Delphi parser and a C# generator, and then added AST rewriting rules and lots of mappings.
To make it successful they didn't hesitate to rewrite difficult Delphi parts, added lots of unit tests, and did the transformation in the daily build. They also still had the original developers, both C# and Delphi specialists, and the code was well-maintained.
I just started working with Hydra, and in my view you still have to expose the interface yourself. Because I didn't need it much, it was not a problem for me, but it might be a pain if you need a bunch.
That said, I think Hydra is great for having the opportunity of using .NET in Delphi fast. I was forced to implement a .NET SAML client, because Microsoft does not always follow the standard exactly. For this purpose Hydra worked fine.
You can actually use RemObjects Hydra to combine Delphi and .NET code into a single application. It lets you create plugin modules with either tool, and then combine them together. I've talked to people who have used it to add .NET features to legacy Delphi applications, as wall as others who have used it to move parts of their legacy Delphi application into a new .NET application.
Full disclosure: I work for RemObjects, but I honestly think Hydra is a great tool. More Delphi developers need to know about it because it means you can keep using the best tool for each part of the application: .NET or Delphi.
The two methods I've used in the past are
I've seen several attempts at this. So far I can't call any of them a success.
Why do people suggest to spend tons of man-hours to port something to another language?
Usually it's a combination of these:
Slap those together, and you've got yourself a recipe for disaster.
Identify the part of the delphi code not being used and mark it to not be converted. Press those in charge to make a solid commitment to keeping any of the functionality. When they say, "Well we may need it." get rid of it and promise to add it back to the new version.
See if you can rework any current change requests to the new language. There have been good suggestions on creating services.
Identify problematic pieces of code that has had a lot of bugs identified. It may be worth a rewrite.
It is tough to justify converting what is left, but eventually, the rest of the code may fall under the first three suggestions as time goes by. Business rules may change along the way.
Here is another alternative that I have found to be very effective. Now keep in mind that no matter what you do it will be a hell of a lot of work but by taking in all this advice I think you can pull it off.
One of the great things about C# is that it can register your assemblies for COM interop and will generate all of those nasty interfaces for you. What we did was take modules from our poorly designed VB6 application and have them use functionality from .NET.
Something you really need to remember is to keep your interfaces simple. Try to only require simple types to be passed to .NET. Also you will need to have a considerable amount of upfront planning to layout what functionality you will expose from .NET. You will need to perform extensive refactoring to make sure your new objects will integrate properly with the legacy code.
Once again there is no way you can turn this into an easy task but it can be done.
I had to do exactly this, although it wasn't several million lines, it was an order of magnitude lower than that.
I did it by implementing web services in .NET. Even the old versions of Delphi have decent SOAP support, so you can just start swapping out entire modules for web services written in .NET (just use the basic profile, no WS-* extensions).
And when you're done, you have a beautiful loosely-coupled SOA.
Option 2:
I'd take a long hard look at Delphi Prism to migrate to .NET without rewriting in C#.

Many Gura Gear customers have enjoyed time on a photo safari in Africa. Despite it's natural beauty, Africa is also home to many struggling people that need our help. Gura Gear has teamed up with MiiR to help make a difference.
One dollar. One person. One year.
Nearly a billion people struggle to survive everyday because they don't have access to clean, safe drinking water. This is where MiiR comes in. One dollar of each MiiR bottle you purchase provides one person with clean water for one year. The full $1 donation, all 100 pennies, will go directly to those in need. Clean water transforms lives, communities and generations -- and at a surprisingly low cost.
Your purchase of a MiiR water bottle not only provides you with a high-quality solution for on-the-go hydration, but also provides clean water to those in need. In Africa, women and children often bear the burden of water collection. They travel long and far to collect water that is typically unsafe, resulting in illness, back pain and kids missing school. Your dollar provides clean water close by, improving lives.

posted Jan 30 2012 1:45PM
Van Halen tickets:
(top ticket price) Roger Waters (top priced) tickets-
Roch. Int'l Jazz Fest Headliner shows-
$85 & up...
Is there a recession still goin' on? Are people still struggling to pay for necessities and gas and food and stuff? You'd never think that by these outrageous ticket prices...Years ago, I used to be able to snag free tix (a benefit of the job...) but these days, I have to buy concert tickets like everyone else, or I should say, NOT buy them because, I can't rationalize spending that kind of money for a concert. None of these performers are hurting for cash, but many of the people who might like to see these shows are excluded because of the exhorbitant prices being asked.

Can't Afford to go to Concerts.
Well Kane-O. I wish I could justify the cost of going to a concert. We all need to have some fun but it's not at concerts. I don't know how anyone can afford it and I'm with you it's not right but we have to live with it and go to the free ones that Rochester has..It's the only way we get to see them. Enjoy your day.
Can't Afford to go to No Concerts!
I agree with you 100% Kane-O! There's no way I could afford to go to concerts at those prices. The only one of the shows above I'd even be interested in seeing is Van Halen, but at $165 - are they crazy?! Greedy too! The only act I'd consider paying $80 or more, if I had it, is Metallica (I paid $80 to see them in Buffalo in Nov. '09).
Selfish & Greedy Musicians!
We have spent thousands over the years to see our bands of classic rock......BUT THE BUCK STOPS HERE! We decided after last summer we were done with the ridiculous jacked up prices for these guys, all of them can kiss our rock n roll arses, oh, and when you ever get the chance Kano, tell them thanks for OUR thank yous, of being dedicated fans while they did what they love, and made millions doing it! Enough is enough.
We need to win tickets
Everyone does not have texting capabilities.I can't afford cable, a cell phone, gas or concerts. The people that can afford fancy phones and fast computers win everything...they don't need to win ,they have money. We should have other ways towin tickets.

Archive for the 'Pete Robinson' tag
finally, a car show class that we could win
What car show has a category for "Student Beaters?" It's the Georgia Tech Car Show, coming to the Atlanta campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology on March 31. The show is open to "motor vehicles of all types owned by students, former students, faculty, staff, alumni, fans, and corporate sponsors of Georgia Tech." This show has a place for everything — classics, alternative-fuel cars, 4×4 trucks, kit cars, race cars, motorcycles, and more. Judging is by popular ballot, and, get this: ballots are for sale for $1 apiece, with the proceeds benefiting the Georgia Tech foundation. Obviously, it's all in fun.
Admission is free. In case of rain, the show will move to a covered parking garage.
The show is organized by a group of enthusiasts who wanted to highlight Georgia Tech's many contributions to the automobile industry. The institute's faculty and alumni include "Sneaky" Pete Robinson, who won the 1961 NHRA Nationals; Jim Downing, endurance racer and co-developer of the HANS device; Franci Cimatti, in charge of new road car platform design at Ferrari; Huibert Mees, a chassis expert with Ford Motor Co.; Norman Garrett, who helped develop the Mazda Miata; and Bryan Nesbitt, the head of car design for GM's European divisions.
About that Student Beater category: "Cars in this class will score higher with dents, rust, worn interiors, unpopular body styles, political opinions or music taste expressed in the form of worn bumper stickers or graphics…. If you suspect that your car may be worth less than your parking pass, then this might be the special category for you." If the University of Massachusetts had had a contest like this while I was there, I would have retired the trophy.

This is probably the best coverup foundation makeup I have ever used. I have tried all the expensive brands and always come back to this one. My favorite shade is Shade 735.
I normally use an expensive foundation but wanted to try something cheaper. So I purchased True Match - Honey Beige - I was really surprised how smooth and creamy it is. The color I chose was perfect and it's not easy picking a perfect color foundation. The number 1 thing I liked most was you could actually open the bottle and sample the color. Most brands are sealed shut and that is why I won't buy other brands. I was not dissapointed at all. I am not going back to my normal $40 foundation. Thank you True Match for a pleasant experience.

BIDDEFORD, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - An unusual caravan is about to make its way down the East Coast from Maine to Florida, with stops along the way in Boston and Baltimore.
The temperature-controlled vans will transport dozens of loggerhead turtles that have been brought back from the brink of death.
Fourteen loggerheads spent the last four months recovering from severe hypothermia at the University of New England's Marine Animal Rehabilitation Center in Biddeford.
"These guys came to us December 14th pretty soon after their strandings on on the beaches," said Animal Lab Technician Ashley Simpson, pointing to a swimming pool.
2012 was a record year for sea turtle strandings.
Many were saved thanks to volunteers who patroll Cape Cod's beaches and help get them into a network of rehab centers across the Northeast.
"A lot of times, associated with the strandings, you get turtles with frost bite, you get pneumonia, lung issues," said Simpson.
After months of antibiotics and as many fish as they can eat, the loggerheads are about to be discharged.
Every turtle is weighed, measured and biopsied.
Then they're outfitted with tags; two on the rear flippers and a third microchip ID tag that will tell each turtle's story if it's ever located again.
It's a lot of work rescuing the turtles, but critical for this threatened species survival.
"Their numbers are dwindling due to pollution, climate change, being entangled in fishing gear and loss of nesting habitat," says Kristen Patchett, the Center's Rehabilitation Coordinator.
Of the 14 that were brought here, 13 survived.
"These guys are doing really well, they're eating great, they're healthy. Now they just need to go back to the wild," says Simpson.
On Saturday, they'll join 29 other turtles from the New England Aquarium in Boston. They'll join in a caravan that will end up in Northern Florida where they'll be released back into the Atlantic.
Thanks to this new lease on life, they could live another 50 years or longer.

Bournemouth hotels
What travelers to Bournemouth are saying
Bournemouth Rundown
There's over seven miles of golden sandy Bournemouth beaches and 3000 stripy deckchairs to choose from on the Bournemouth seafront – but grab your spot early because during the summer Bournemouth gets packed with holidaymakers and day trippers. The southern Dorset resort represents an honest, good old-fashioned day out at the seaside. Buts there are no 'kiss me quick' hats here - Bournemouth has an old fashioned Victorian gentility which puts it a cut above the rest.
Bournemouth has two Piers, Bournemouth Pier and Boscombe Pier, the perfect places to enjoy your fish and chips, but beware the aggressive seagulls – they have been known to carry small children off, let alone your dinner. You can also enjoy a small or big promenade along the huge promenade, whilst admiring the well tended ornamental gardens. If you like your entertainment more exciting, then try out surfing or water boarding at the Surf School, then test out your new skills at the brand new Artificial Surf Reef.
Bournemouth has been guided gently into the 21st Century - and now has a huge shopping complex and enough bars and clubs to keep even the most energetic of stag and hen parties happy.
Bournemouth's Top 10
10. Pavilion Dance is Bournemouth's national dance house with world class performances and workshops.
5. The Littledown Centre is perfect if you prefer being able to see your feet when you swim, plus outdoor picnic area and miniature railway.
9. Dorset Belle Cruises run trips from Bournemouth Pier to the white Jurassic cliffs of Old Harry, Brownsea Island and Poole.
4. The Russell-Coates Art Gallery & Museum houses paintings, sculpture, furniture and ceramics.
8. If you must go clubbing, Elements is Bournemouth's biggest, but prepare to queue or get on the right side of the bouncers.
3. The Pleasure Gardens really are pleasurable - Grade II listed greenery stretching for one and a half miles north west of the seafront.
7. Brush off the sand and head for The Village, Bournemouth's most refined area with designer shops, beauty stores, posh deli's and quality restaurants.
2. Find out t if you suffer from vertigo in The Bournemouth Eye, an air balloon which rises 150m to give views for 25 miles.
6. Tee off at Queen's Park Golf Course's tree-lined fairways.
1. Get eye to eye with mean looking sharks at the Oceanarium – they know you wouldn't be so brave without the glass.
3) Bournemouth Events
The Bournemouth Air Festival is a real highlight on the events calendar. Watch vintage planes and The Red Arrows take to the skies next to the seafront in this free August event.
Bournemouth Pride Festival takes place in July and takes over the seaside resort. Celebrate diversity with locals and visitors alike.
The Vienna Proms offers a full programme of Austrian Romantic composers' work at Bournemouth's Concert Hall at the end of June (tickets £21).
Bournemouth's Boscombe Market runs an open air market every Thursday and Saturday throughout the year. It's good for fruit and veg, as well as handbags, clothes and much more.
Classic Cars on the Prom takes place on a weekly basis throughout the summer at the back of Bournemouth International Centre (BIC).
Bournemouth Pier to Boscombe Pier Fun Run takes place in July in aid of the Samaritans. Warm up begins at Bournemouth Pier.
Bournemouth International Triathlon features a mile swim, 25 mile bike ride, seven mile run and a sprint in July.
The DPA Bournemouth Summer Festival takes place in July, commencing at the Bournemouth Pavilion. Tickets are around £13.00.
The Bournemouth Pier to Pier Swim is a 1.4 mile swim from Bournemouth Pier to Boscombe Pier in July.
Bournemouth Family Festival is held in late July and features stalls, bands, tons of free activities for children at Meyrick Park.
Bournemouth Food & Drink Festival celebrates food, wine and beer with regional producers and chefs in attendance at Bournemouth Town Square in August.
4)When to Go
· Bournemouth's weather is akin to British weather in general which means it can be unpredictable. There are plenty of sunny days to be had, however during the summer months of May to September. Bournemouth's location by the sea means its climate will be generally milder than places inland.
· Maximum temperatures in August are 27 °C with a minimum of 15 °C. During the winter months temperatures can dip as low as 7 °C.
· There is always the chance of rain during a trip to Bournemouth – days which start out sunny can often turn overcast and vice versa, so be prepared and bring a brolly.
5) Getting There
· Bournemouth International airport runs a number of scheduled and charter services – and London Heathrow and Gatwick are easy to get to from Bournemouth by train or coach.
· National Express runs a regular service from London, Bristol and Oxford as well as many other main UK cities. The journey time from London is around 2 and a half hours and ticket prices are very competitive – currently around £17. If you're driving, Bournemouth has good road links
· Trains run hourly from London Waterloo, a journey of around only 97 minutes at a current cost of £34.50, however it possible to get cheaper fares if you book tickets well in advance.
General Information
The county of Dorset in South West England is famous for extraordinary beauty, most notably on the Channel coast. The UNESCO World Heritage Jurassic Coast, traversable via the South West Coast Path, is especially scenic. Resort towns draw scores of visitors to Dorset in the warm summer months as well, with Bournemouth as one of the most popular.
The town of 165,000 people is the most populous in Dorset and sits just east of the Jurassic Coast. From June to August, Bournemouth transforms into a veritable leisure, entertainment and recreation mecca, as scores of urbanites descend on the resort town to escape life in the city for a week or two. The beach and pier remain the most desirable spots for visitors, with the vast majority of restaurants, bars and attractions within close proximity. For a taste of genuine history, check out the Royal Bath Hotel, with such famous former guests as Oscar Wilde and H.G. Wells.
Bournemouth has a temperate climate, with mild weather throughout the year.
- Winter (December to February) 2-9°C
- Spring (March to May) 3-17°C
- Summer (June to September) 10-22°C
- Fall (October to November) 4-15°C

|The challenge: find the geographic coordinates of 10 red weather balloons scattered across the country, as quickly as possible. The contest, sponsored by DARPA, aimed to "explore the roles the Internet and social networking play in the timely communication, wide-area team-building, and urgent mobilization required to solve broad-scope, time-critical problems." The winning team, from MIT, located the balloons in under nine hours, just days after learning about the contest. Their approach involved encouraging others to join their team and provide useful information by offering to share the prize money with both those who brought useful information as well as with those who referred those with the information to the team. We'll find out more.

Come to Pajarito Environmental Education Center at 7 p.m. Oct. 10 to hear about the Biological Resource Management Program at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Chuck Hathcock will talk about the lab's compliance with environmental laws and the plan to protect sensitive species found on lab property.
The biological resource management teams at LANL assess the status of a variety of organisms on LANL property, including some with threatened or endangered statuses.
The team then reports back about how to best manage the biological resources involved. They have surveyed many different species, including the Jemez Mountain salamander, Rio Grande chub and numerous bird and bat species. LANL scientists often call upon the biology division at the lab to give advice on proposed plans that may pose a threat to the local flora and fauna.
Hathcock is a wildlife biologist at LANL with more than 15 years of experience in the field. Hathcock and his colleagues have documented many important reports on the biology found in and around LANL.
His research focuses primarily on songbird population demographics. Outside of work, Hathcock is an avid naturalist and hiker and can be found most weekends birding, bird banding or traveling.

Arizona lawmakers target synthetic marijuana drugs
PHOENIX — Arizona lawmakers are looking to crack down on synthetic marijuana.
A Senate committee advanced two bills Monday that would make it harder for people to use or buy the drug commonly known as spice.
One bill would prohibit businesses with liquor licenses from selling spice. Another bill would expand the state's definition of dangerous drugs and increase the minimum fine of selling or manufacturing dangerous drugs from $1,000 to $25,000.
Roughly 41 states have banned spice, including Arizona.
But law enforcement officials have said the law has had little impact because distributors of synthetic drugs can make minor chemical changes to try to stay ahead of the law.
Some of the effects reported when people smoke these substances include anxiety, vomiting, high blood pressure, seizures, hallucinations and non-responsiveness.

The first convictions in the Department of Justice's fatally flawed Fast and Furious gunwalking scheme were made in a Federal court on Monday; the investigation into the operation continues.
Jacob Wayne Chambers and Jacob Anthony Montelongo each pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge, and Montelongo also pleaded guilty to dealing guns without a license, according to The Associated Press.
The pair admitted that they were part of a 20-person smuggling ring that trafficked guns to Mexico for the Sinaloa drug cartel.
Chambers bought 79 guns from "straw" dealers in Arizona between September 2009 and December 2009 and got paid $50 for each AK-47 and $100 for a .50-caliber rifle he sold to the cartel. Montelongo purchased 109 guns in Arizona from January 2010 to July 2010 and was paid $50 for pistols, $100 for rifles and $150 each for six .50-caliber rifles.
The two face up to five years in prison and a fine as high as $250,000 when they are sentenced in May.
The convictions come as Congressional Republicans, led by House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), continue their probe into Justice Department officials' knowledge of the operation. On Monday, Issa cried foul when Patrick Cunningham, the chief of the criminal division of the U.S. Attorney's office in Arizona, was excused from a deposition when he refused to give more than his name and title after saying last week that he would not testify and did not have to according to the 5th Amendment.
According to Fox News, Issa speculated that Cunningham's dodging testimony about the operation was "a major escalation of the department's culpability" in a letter he wrote to Attorney General Eric Holder.
Also this week, Republicans in the Arizona Legislature formed their own committee to investigate Fast and Furious. U.S. Attorney for Arizona Dennis Burke was fired due to fallout surrounding the scandal, and the lawmakers hope to learn more about the impact that Fast and Furious had on their State, according to the Phoenix Business Journal.

DSM on Track to Commercialize Production of Resins, Adhesives and Coatings from CO2
March 17, 2010 | Alex Scott
DSM says it expects to be in a position to announce plans for the commercialization of specific products derived from CO2 feedstocks in the next 12-24 months. "We have sufficient perspective now to say we will continue down this road," the company tells CW. DSM's activities until then will focus on product development and testing with customers. DSM says it is developing a range of polymer resins including those for adhesives, coatings and inks that use CO2 as a feedstock. Other raw materials to be used in the process include propylene oxide...

The Race, Ethnicity, and Gender (REG) program integrates theory and research on three key dimensions of social organization: race, ethnicity, and gender. It explores how these dimensions, both independently and in relationship to each other, affect individuals, groups, and societies. Areas of faculty expertise include: race and the labor market, gender and the family, theories of racism and racial and ethnic identity, intergroup beliefs and attitudes, immigration, racial and ethnic demography, gender and racial stratification, and race and social movements.

UIC is unique in the nation with our three-year development program for pedagogy. In the first year, students who are teaching assistants simply grade and observe others, usually senior graduate students instruct. In the second, graduate students teach small seminars (20 students at most) which are attached to a large blended learning lecture class. While they teach these small seminars, they are enrolled in a graduate seminar on "classroom dynamics." At some point in the second or third year of graduate education, students take a full three-credit course "Teaching Sociology" and prepare their first syllabus. The first time students teach they are supported by the Associate Head, and meet weekly fur support and encouragement. We pride ourselves on producing serious scholars who are fabulous teachers.

Title: National survey of physicians practice patterns: Fertility preservation and cancer patients
Reviewer: Arpi Thukral, MD
Presenter: G. Quinn
Affiliation: Moffitt Cancer Center
The treatment of cancer often poses a threat to fertility for young patients of child-bearing age. Approximately 450,000 cancer survivors in the U.S. are of reproductive age, and therefore addressing the impact of cancer treatment on fertility is a high priority in providing quality care to these patients. Previous studies show that less than 50% of patients receive adequate information of fertility preservation (FP) before the initiation of cancer treatment. Some factors that affect infertility in patients receiving cancer therapy include age, sex, diagnosis, chemotherapy used, and radiation fields. FP options include sperm cryopreservation for men and embryo cryopreservation, egg freezing, or ovarian transposition for women.
In 2005, ASCO published guidelines on FP that recommended that "oncologists should address the possibility of infertility with patients treated during their reproductive years and be prepared to discuss possible fertility preservation options or refer appropriate and interested patients to reproductive specialists, as part of education and informed consent before cancer therapy." The purpose of this study was to assess oncologist's practice concerning discussions with their patients regarding fertility preservation.
The survey inquired about knowledge, attitude and perception, barriers, and behaviors in practice of physicians related to fertility preservation in patients of child-bearing age. Six hundred thirteen physicians completed the survey.
The findings included:
Patients must be advocates for their fertility wishes! They need to ask about fertility risks related to their treatment, request to meet with a fertility specialist and review FP options. Organizations such as Fertile Hope offer many resources for patients and physicians, including information about FP options, specialist referrals and financial assistance.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to go careening across a lake in the Hurler or the Screamer? Water-sports manufacturer O'Brien is glad to show you – just scan the Microsoft Tag on its products with your smartphone, and you can view "experience" videos like this one for the Hurler (or its big brother, the Barf Ball).
The Tags on O'Brien's products and in its 2010-11 dealer catalog also offer tips on how to use and care for the products, enabling shoppers to make informed decisions about its wakeboards, skis, tubes, and other gear.
O'Brien added Tag to its marketing repertoire after noticing Tags in magazines such as Entertainment Weekly. Pete Surrette, vice president of sales and marketing, decided that if Tags could effectively market a movie, they could do the same for his water-sports products.
"This went much further than just displaying pictures in advertising," Surrette says. "Getting your customers to see a video of the product in action makes a huge difference."
In a recent interview with Internet Retailer, Surrette said he chose Microsoft Tag because it's in color and can be customized, so that it stands out better than other 2D barcodes. Plus, he believes that QR codes are "old technology, like VHS" and that within five years, Microsoft Tag will "rise to the top."
"Tags are a very potent 'silent salesman,'" Surrette told Internet Retailer. "We'll be launching programs soon with Dick's Sporting Goods where they feature our Super Screamer on their end-cap displays. We're incorporating Tags on the header cards in the displays and on all of the product boxes. They're great sales tools."
Surrette also praises Tag Manager's analytics, which enable him to see where and how often individual product Tags are being scanned. Knowing the geographic hot spots "can help us develop strategy in various locations."
Would watching a video of the Hurler influence your buying decision? Are there even more ideas for getting the O'Brien experience in customer's hands? Let us know in the comments below or on Tag's Facebook or Twitter pages.

La Canfora: Jets To Have a General Manager By Tomorrow
As we anxiously await the announcement of Mike Tannenbaum's successor, CBS Sports' Jason La Confora is reporting that the Jets are expected to have their man in place by tomorrow.
The New York Jets plan to name a new general manager by Thursday, according to league sources, with finalists wrapping up their interviews on Wednesday.
The Jets have identified at least three finalists for the opening and have already conducted second interviews with at least two candidates.
Eric Weeks, TheJetsBlog.com
I think I speak for most when I say that an announcement tomorrow would be a great sigh of relief though I can respect the steps the Jets have taken to make sure they find the right candidate for the job, one who they think will set this team on course in the right direction and who they know wants the job and the challenges they will inherit with it. The fact that the Jets have also been able to keep the media in the dark is nothing short of a miracle after all the leaks that have piled up over the course of the last two years. Just the other day CBS reported the Jets were interviewing Russ Ball while ESPN refuted the report. And how about Brian Gaine? Remember him? After the multitude of complaints about him, he's not even showing up as a reported finalist. In the age of Twitter, we're in the dark and it's probably for the best.
There's continued speculation that the team has no idea what they're doing, especially in regards to the named candidates, but, I think we need to step back a bit and look at the bigger picture. They're doing their due diligence. You don't just hire an agency to assist you in your search only to have them do a half-assed job and give you Joe Schmo off the street after a two day search. I'll be the first to admit to you that the wait has been tedious but in all honesty I'd rather have them get it right the first time instead firing the poor guy a year later.
