The Golden Goddesses (Legend Of Zelda) had The Triforce, so why shouldn't The FSM?
Long ago, The Golden Goddesses created the realm of Hyrule, and the great Triforce. they embodied their virtues, Wisdom, Power, and Courage, in this set of three traingles, and it ws really cool. They locked it in the Sacred Ream, where Ganondorf got a hold of it, and he rest is history.
When the great and mighty Flying Spaghetti Monster heard of the Triforce, he decied He should have one as well. After all, the FSM is just as good as any other deity!
The FSM embodied this new Triforce with the qualities best ssociated with Him: His Awesomeness, His Sarcasm, an His Bad-ass*
And the FSM saw that the Triforce was truly awesome, bad-ass, and sarcastic.
Then the great FSM created three weapons, one each to go with teh Triforces. For Awesomeness, he called upon the most awesome man in existence, and he created a mighty blade, The Sword Of Awesomeness.
For Sarcasm, he called upon a skilled sect of Ninjas, the "Ninjas of Sarcasm", who created a magical shuriken-shaped pendant, that created shuriken shaped bolts of Extreme Sarcasm**, and they called it the Shuriken of Sarcasm.
For Bad-ass, The FSM called upon the most Bad-ass Pirate he could find. A Pirate living and pillaging in the Philippines forged the Balisong Of Bad-ass.
The FSM caused the Triforce to be broken into t's three components, and each placed in its own temple, along with its weapon.
*(My girlfriend, brother, and I have put a lot of thought into this, and extended everything beyond the original guidelines of that site, so bear with me).

Even though chips are not the most popular thing to talk about at the cool kids lunch table, this article would definitely be worth reading. Many people would think that this would just be some ordinary, average chip – but really, it's not. It is much more than that actually. The Orion has a dual core 1 GHz ARM Cortex A9 CPU with a quad-core Mali 400 GPU on board. This was seen at the ARM Technology Conference sometime this week when they were showing "Linaro" Linux middleware, along with some stock Android 2.2 technology.
All of the bugs were not worked out with the Samsung Orion, so they were not able to show what a HDTV would look like with it. However, there was a demo given of Futuremark's old Cyber Samurai benchmark which was running on a smaller screen. This gave people a good idea of what this chip was capable of. Many people were quite impressed as you might of guessed.
The news keeps getting better. There are also a lot of rumors going around that this chip will be in other products later this year into next year – and years to come. People are really expecting this chip to help out other products, so there is a lot of excitement at this point. Rumors have it that this will most likely end up in some other type of flagship phone soon such as the next Unlocked Galaxy Tab. There is no word when all of the kinks will be worked out on this chip where people can be shown what a HDTV would look like with it, but they have been working non-stop on it over the past few days to get it fixed. Pretty soon, we will get to see all of the capabilities that this chip possesses; there's a lot to look forward to.
PureMobile carries a wide range of cell phone accessories and unlocked cell phones such as Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, Blackberry Curve 9300, HTC Desire etc…

Good news for Droid X users as Verizon and Motorola are assumably planning to enable Android 2.2 Froyo OS on the new smartphones in a month. For the Unlocked Motorola Milestone Android phone user, you are expected to get the official Froyo update soon enough. Thanks to a leak in one of their support forums, we now know that Droid X will be updated to Android 2.2 by September.
Here's the story. All of a sudden a Motorola support forum addressing issues regarding Exchange 2003 on Droid X leaked that it's hinting at a more concrete update for Froyo. This should get all those Droid X users out there, really charged up.
An issue faced by Droid X users using Exchange 2003 email is that they are receiving mails but the notifications are not present. With the upgrade to Android 2.2 in early September, this snag should be fixed.
No indication is available as of now regarding when Verizon will make the update to Android 2.2 available to its DX user through an OTA update, but it can surely be said that it's going to happen within four weeks or so. But there is a slight possibility that this might turn out to be a hoax.
The update will make your Unlocked Droid (X) get along with the JIT compiler which will speed up the overall performance, this will allow a V8 JavaScript engine to reach web browsing speeds like Google Chrome-like on your smartphone. It will also be able to use the support of Adobe Flash 10.1, and automatically update your Android apps.

MASSENA - Tickets are on sale now for the fifth annual Music for Change Charity Fest to be held at 6 p.m. on March 16 at the St. Lawrence Centre Arena.
St. Lawrence Centre Marketing Assistant Lindsey S. Breitbeck said this years show will include six competitors and seven bands, with local rock band Tyrade headlining the show and closing out the evening.
Tyrade, a band that describes themselves as country metal, has played with such groups as Godsmack, Popa Roach and The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.
Ms. Breitbeck said while they will not be competing they will be playing a full set after each of the six competing bands has played their 20 minute sets.
Were lucky to have Tyrade playing at this years show, she said. Theyve played with some pretty big names.
This years bands include Atomic Precipitation, Tree Humor, Into the Black, All the Fallen, Vicious Intent and a group that has yet to come up with a name.
Presale tickets are available for $8 at the malls customer service center and the arena box office, with tickets also soon being available at Northern Music & Video. Tickets will be available on the day of the show, but Ms. Breitbeck said tickets will cost $10 at that time.
This year were doing something new and if college students bring in a college ID their tickets are $5, she said, adding it doesnt matter if students purchase their tickets in advance or at the door as long as they present their student ID.
The six bands will be competing for prizes that include a $100 mall gift card, two $50 Northern Music & Video gift certificates, a three-song demo recording session from North Country Public Radio and a ToneGen guitar tuner and tambourine donated by StarTech.
Prizes will be awarded for best overall band, best original song and honorable mentioned. One band competing that night will also be invited back to perform at the malls annual Fourth of July celebration.
Ms. Breitbeck said bands will be judged on originality, creativity, sound quality and stage presence. Also new this year, will be the use of a sound meter to measure audience reaction.
A concession stand with soft drinks, snacks and glow sticks will be open during the battle and all proceeds from the evening will benefit Raquette Valley Habitat For Humanity.

Ghost Story Come True — Could Pat LaFontaine Buy the Islanders?
Kevin Schultz
Every town has it's ghost stories, I'm sure you remember the one from the town where you grew up. Maybe your town had the one about a certain bridge that high school kids drove to, turned off their car lights, and saw a shadowy figure. Or maybe your town believed the one about the house on the hill, whose lights would turn on only after dark. The Islanders have their own such ghost stories, and one of the most prominent involves Pat LaFontaine buying the team.
LaFontaine's a former Islander and NHL star, so he's never had the money to buy a team by himself — barring some lottery windfall. But he's forever been rumored to be putting together a group of investors with which to buy the team from current owner Charles Wang. The LaFontaine ownership story has been on message boards and blogs many times over the years, and with all due respect to those places and people, it never really had legs from serious mainstream sources.
Today, the LaFontaine ghost story just got a very serious mainstream source. Via Larry Brooks and Josh Kosman at the New York Post:
Pat LaFontaine has been contacted by some European investors about the possibility of buying the money-losing team and keeping it on Long Island, The Post has learned.
LaFontaine, who starred for the Islanders for eight seasons and is in the top six in goals and points in team history, is intrigued by the opportunity and may look to put together some sort of bid, sources said.
Unfortunately for LaFontaine, who still lives on Long Island and is active in charities there, that price is said to be a sky-high $300 million.
Wha-What? A group of shadowy European investors looking to grab a forlorn Long Island franchise with the intention of keeping them on Long Island? That sounds too much like a ghost story to me to be true. Brooks doesn't have any names but it's certainly one heck of a story. He continues:
The LaFontaine-centered effort will look to keep it in Nassau. That may be difficult without an arena.
There has been plenty of chatter that the Islanders could, beginning in the 2015-16 season, move to Brooklyn's Barclays Center. Such a move would have to overcome some obvious hurdles — not the least of which is that Barclays seats only 14,500 for hockey, which would make it the smallest NHL rink.
I've said it before and I'll say it again until I'm blue in the face, it's simply a matter of charging more per ticket. A 14,500 seat shiny new arena with a winning team isn't going to be a problem. Getting a winning team, is. But I digress.
So Brooks has layed out a scenario of LaFontaine and his group being able to make an offer on the team, but not having the wherewithal to keep the team on Long Island by themselves. And now, the story starts to read like a fan fiction version of a Charles Dickens with all the ghosts of Islander teams past:
At the same time, former Islander greats Bob Nystrom and Denis Potvin are advising one Long Island developer on a plan to keep the team right where it is.
The two are working with Ed Blumenfeld, one of three finalists to become "master developer" of the Coliseum site, which would include a new arena.
Blumenfeld's goal is either to persuade Wang to stay in the area and use the new arena or, if Wang moves the team out of the area, to persuade another owner to move a team to Nassau County.
The developer is interested, according to sources, in buying a hockey team but he does not want to buy the Islanders for $300 million.
So we've got a developer who wants a team for a (possible but not yet built) new arena and an ex-player with a group of investors who want a team (but doesn't have said team and needs a building). This sounds all too good to be true, but if it's coming from Brooks, it can't all be hocus pocus. Stay tuned, because one of Long Island's ghost stories just got sourced by a mainstream writer.

Mets could get more for Niese than Dickey
"The Mets have also discussed Jon Niese enough to lead one source to conclude that early interest was not overwhelming," Andy Martino reports for the Daily News.
According to Martino, the Mets are not inclined to trade Niese right now, "despite a widespread view among rival executives that the lefty would yield a far better return than Dickey."
Dec. 4, 4:24 pm: "We've really had virtually no discussions with anyone about Jonathan," Sandy Alderson told reporters today in Nashville. "So we'd be starting from scratching on that."
Yesterday, Alderson said the Mets had talked to teams about Niese, but he was talked about less than R.A. Dickey.

The Facebook application is notorious for the various bugs and problems that it has undergone since its release. It is regarded as one of the buggiest mainstream and large applications out there on the market. The official application for both unlocked iPhone 4 and Windows phone operating systems will be receiving an update here in the very near future. It will be bumped up to version 3.4.4 and will continue to correct many of the errors that users have complained about for quite some time. One of the biggest issues that it is going to fix is the issue and bugs that surrounded the send button for comments, chat and messages. Many users have reported that the chat section have received a lot of bad feedback, with messages getting deleted and messages not ever sending even though the application stated that they had been sent.
The company also announced that the application will no longer randomly crash on iPhone users. This is a bug that has been around for quite some time and it is a bit surprising that they have not fixed it as of yet. The Windows forms version of the application will receive an update to version 2.1, and will fix one of the larger issues that have been associated with the application, an issue that dealt with accessing the picture albums of friends through the cell phone such as unlocked HTC 7 Surround.
It is interesting that they choose now is the time to update. And it's been regarded as one of the largest issues throughout its release, in Facebook has been one of the most complained about applications on the market. It will be interesting to see this update fixes all of the known issues that have been out there for some time, or if he continues to create problems and additional bugs in the application.

Refuting the 'Social Media Hangover' at Political Conventions
Please excuse this IABer's arrogance when she says: the experts got it wrong.
After Tampa and Charlotte, the reports came flooding in "social media revolution failed," "Parties still need physical convention," and "will social media ever live up to its promise?"
But if you know what I mean when I say #eastwooding, read no further, you probably already get everything I am about to highlight.
For some reason, just like novice mobile marketers, the pundits looked to social media to replace the political norms, and missed the true Holy Grail. Just as a successful cross platform marketing campaign reaches the consumer as they move throughout their day, in different contexts utilizing both old and new, social media supplements the convention and campaign platform, it is not there to replace it. Breaking down the walls did not simply mean to host a virtual convention, rather, it's a tool to expand audience and break down access barriers.
Let's be honest, while baby boomers and beyond are still happy to find a couch during prime time TV, up and coming generations are highly mobile (and I don't mean by device), they are cord cutters, and they consume a lot of information and entertainment through multiple platforms and services, at the time convenient for them.
Social media is our Where Brother Art Thou's tin can and soapbox. It's retail politicking. How in a modern national campaign do you recreate the glad handing, baby kissing, and storytelling necessary for intimate, voter engagement? Accessibility and communication.
Kal Penn's call for #sexyface wasn't just a funny gimmick; it created an opportunity for engagement. Voters like to feel as though they are a part of the process and in on the secret. It took less than an hour for #sexyface to trend on Twitter. While an unintended consequence, @InvisibleObama had tens of thousands of followers in the first hour, 40,000 by the next morning.
And this raises a separate question that has yet to truly unfold: measuring social media's impact. Some argue in order for social media to be successful, it must be organic. On this point, the two campaigns seem to be diverging, and we will be presented with two case studies by year's end. Last week, the Romney campaign was the first political campaign to purchase a paid promotion on Twitter. Consider, the President clocks in over 19.6 million followers to the Governor's 1.1 million.
Campaign strategies aside, the beauty of social media at the conventions this year was its seamless integration - it was universally present, yet invisible - like any great technology should be. From delegates swiping badges to update their Facebook timeline, Eventbrite check-ins, to the hottest ticket in town literally: lattes in the Google Media Lounge, to Convention real-time apps, and Tweet-ups. The experts failed to realize social media at the conventions wasn't a replacement, but an enhancement.
The 2008 Presidential and 2010 Midterms were just the beginning. We are only beginning to see the tipping point, and there will be mistakes, flaws, and downright failures as campaigns navigate the best way to put these tools to use. I am often pointed to the Veep App as evidence social media and technology platforms don't work for political. The much-vaunted Veep App would be the first place for voters to find news on the Governor's announcement for a VP candidate. Unfortunately for the App, and the campaign, that news broke before the App could. And it is true; campaigns must have controlled messaging, and esoterically will remain unchanged for the near future. But don't shoot the App, campaign leaks are tech-agnostic.
And we're just scratching the surface. Be sure to join us this year at the IAB MIXX Conference & Expo as some of the smartest minds in media and political discuss the "Digital Election" and examine how the Internet will decide the Presidency this year.

A 56-year-old Price man and a 12-year-old Boy Scout were killed in separate lightning strikes in the region Monday and Wednesday.
On Monday, Joseph Louis Geiser IV was struck by lightning while he was out in the area of the Wedge Overlook, about 20 miles east of Castle Dale, in the San Rafael Desert, according to the Emery County Sheriff's Office.
On Wednesday, another bolt hit two scouts at the Scofield Scout Camp near Madsen Bay, killing one and injuring the other. Both were 12 years old.
Helper Fire Chief Mike Zamantakis said his rescue team responded but CPR efforts could not save the boy who died.
The injured scout was taken by ambulance to Utah Valley Hospital.
Sheriff James Cordova did say that the Scofield victims were from a South Salt Lake troop.
In the Wedge incident, Emery County emergency services responded to the call at 3:55 p.m. At the scene,they found CPR was already being performed on Geiser by a family member who was with him. Despite their efforts, emergency personnel were unable to revive Geiser and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Geiser was an outdoorsman and coal miner worked at Deer Creek Mine for 31 years.

Tebow Ain't Going Anywhere
With the trade deadline today at 4PM ET, there is no chance that Tim Tebow is not about to be traded, reports the NY Post's Brian Costello who spoke with a source about the matter.
There was a report by a Jacksonville TV station on Tuesday night that the Jets and Jaguars were talking about a trade to send Tebow to his hometown team. A source said that report is not true.
The Post reported last week the Jets would not trade Tebow before the trade deadline, which was pushed back to today at 4 p.m. because of Hurricane Sandy.
Brian Bassett, TheJetsBlog.com
In addition to that, yesterday Adam Schefter told ESPN SportsCenter viewers that a trade for Tebow was "not gonna happen. I never expected that the Jaguars would trade for Tebow now that they are into the season. Ironically, Gabbert might not have been great (55.6% 1,209 yards, 5.84 YPA, 7 TDs 3 INTs 17 SK), but the truth is that he's been better in a number of statistical areas than Mark Sanchez (52.9%, 1,736 yards, 6.38 YPA, 10 TDs 8 INTs 18SK) has been … and it's not exactly as if Gabbert is stacked with talent at the WR position either.
The Jaguars might be struggling to find their place, just like the Jets … but the one thing that might be more defined than the Jets is their quarterback situation.

Golden Globe Beauty Superlatives

Best Matching Makeup to DressMakeup artist Beau Nelson managed to make blue eye shadow look fresh on Nicole Richie. He pressed Elizabeth Arden's Beautiful Color Eye Shadow ($19) in Sky onto her eyelids before lining Richie's upper and lower lash line with the brand's Beautiful Color Pencil ($18) in Midnight to make the frosty blue pop.

Best Retro--but Not '40s!--HairIf you saw long hair on Sunday's red carpet, chances are it was parted on the side and curled into soft waves--unless you were Julianne Moore. Hairstylist Chris McMillan used Living Proof's Prime Style Extender ($20) to build her '60s-inspired beehive and the brand's Firm Hold Hairspray ($24) to keep it in place.

Best EnsembleThe cast of Girls (minus absent Jemima Kirke) looked impeccable Sunday night, taking home the Golden Globe for Best TV Comedy or Musical. Makeup artist Jo Strettell painted Lena Dunham's lips with Koh Gen Do's Maifanshi Lipstick ($39) in Coral Pink; Mai Quynh used Yves Saint Laurent's Volume Effet Faux Cils Mascra ($30) in Noir Radical Mascara to give Zosia Mamet those full lashes; and Julie Harris used Nars' Pure Matte Lipstick ($25) in Montego Bay on Allison Williams.

Best LipJessica Alba didn't let her coral gown stop her from adding a bold lip; makeup artist Lauren Andersen painted the perfect shade of tangerine on Alba's lips with Hourglass' Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick ($28) in Riviera.
- 5 of 9
Best Mermaid MomentAndy Lecompte accessorized Lucy Liu's Carolina Herrera gown with a perfectly messy fishtail braid tossed over her right shoulder. He used Wella's Professional Ocean Spritz ($16) to score that roughed-up texture and rubbed the brand's Rugged Fix ($14) on the ends to make it extra piecey.

Best Bare FaceSienna Miller's nearly bare, glowing skin stood out in a sea of powdered faces and smoky eyes. Makeup artist Pati Dubroff used Chanel's Sublimage La Crème Texture Supreme ($390) and Base Lumiere Illuminating Makeup Base ($42) to prep the actress' skin, with a bit of Soleil Tan de Chanel Bronzing Makeup Base ($48) to contour her cheekbones and lend a bit of sun-kissed color.

Best '40s HairOn an evening when seemingly everyone took their hair inspiration from Veronica Lake, Rachel Weisz did it best. Instead of soft finger waves, hairstylist Ben Skervin pumped up the volume for a much-needed dose of modernity. He used a one-inch curling iron, pinning the curls up until they cooled, and sprayed a generous amount of Vidal Sassoon's Pro Series Extra Firm Hold Hairspray ($4) at the end for all of that shine.

Best UpdoRiawna Capri of Nine One Zero Salon calls Julianne Hough's 'do a "twisted mohawk." Whatever it is, we love it. She prepped Hough's hair with Unite Expanda's Dust ($20) for both height and texture and used the brand's Shina Mist ($18) for crazy shine.

Best Smoky EyeMakeup artist Jake Bailey saw Helmut Newton in Katharine McPhee's Theyskens' Theory dress, so he gave her the smoky eyes to match, lining them with Nars' Larger Than Life Long Wear Eyeliner ($23) in Via Veneto before using a brush to smudge the brand's Duo Eyeshadow ($34) in Corduro across the lid.

Of the 2.6 million or so Americans who have served in recent conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, up to a third of them are estimated to be suffering some form of mental trauma. In Maine, with its high percentage of veterans in the population, that would equate to about 50,000 people who bear mental scars due to military service. In 2005, clinical psychologist Barbara Van Dahlen decided to dedicate her life to trying to heal those scars, and set up Given An Hour - a non-profit offering free mental health counseling to veterans. Last year she was named one of Time's 100 most influential people. In an interview with Maine Things Considered host Tom Porter, Van Dahlen says a number of factors inspired her to focus on helping veterans - including growing up with one.
Maine Things Considered host Tom Porter talks with Give an Hour founder Barbara Van Dahlen (right) about the program, which provides military veterans with free mental health care. Learn more about the program.

USO Director of Volunteer Services Betsy McWhirt profiles the 2012 Regional Volunteers of the Year
Takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'. At least that's what they said about the old Timex watches that got stomped on by elephants and frozen on the ski tips of a professional downhill racer. The lickin' USO Kandahar's SGT Richard Schuh took, however, was a little more intense. After he was attacked by small arms fire and rocket propelled grenades, he suffered shrapnel wounds to his side and elbow. During his recovery, SGT Schuh attended a "smoothie" event given by the USO at the Wounded Warrior housing, and he instantly knew he had a calling.
The very next day, Schuh, who wanted to give back to those supporting him as he convalesced, headed to the USO to volunteer. During his first week with the USO, he ran what's called a 550 Cuff event all by himself, where more than 50 people showed up to make special bracelets. He took the lead creating and organizing an NFL Fantasy Football League, promoted and ran United Through Reading® projects, and recruited other wounded warriors to volunteer. From approximately August 15 through September 3, 2011, he donated a whopping 198 hours to the USO including many 10 to 12-hour days.
There were days when Richard was in excruciating pain, yet he would refuse to take a break because he said working at the USO was a good distraction. In spite of his wounds, he was always courteous and brought out the best in everyone. He served as an inspiration to others showing them that even though you may be wounded, you are still important and vital to the mission.
Selected as Southwest Asia's Volunteer of the Year, we have a feeling that SGT Richard Schuh is going to be tickin' for a long time, lifting the spirits of all who encounter him!
All the chief cooks and bottle washers need to be on guard because there is a new guy in town, Staff Sergeant Samuel Lee from the USO Warrior Center in Kaiserslautern, and he's raising the bar of service to our warriors in need.
SSgt. Lee is a Mental Health Technician at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. And though it's not unusual for him to work a 16-hour shift, he is so devoted to the wounded warriors he treats that he spends nearly every free moment at the USO Warrior Center to create a lively and fun environment for injured service members. Matter of fact, he often escorts patients to and from the center himself because he sees the healing power a special USO event or program can bring.
His initiative to get as many patients into the center as possible has dramatically increased the morale of the wounded warriors on his ward and has helped shorten their recovery time. He encourages these soldiers to relax by playing video games or strumming the guitar. He sometimes even plays along with them. He has an easy and opened manner and his zest for life creates fun and laughter all around.
SSgt. Lee has that unique ability and a personality that distinguishes him from the crowd. He willingly takes on any task that is asked including cooking, cleaning, stocking, decorating, assisting with gaming equipment, and, at times, running the center when staff gets pulled away. Most importantly, he shows an exceptional level of compassion and ability to communicate with wounded warriors.
Whether Lee is up in the air escorting patients back to the U.S. for further treatment, or on the ground literally cooking and bottle washing, he's there for our injured service members every step of the way.
Some folks get nervous when they hear the term "fishing expedition," worrying that someone is going to uncover embarrassing or damaging information about them. Others think about the story of the "one that got away." But for Bob Murphy of USO Metropolitan New York, the term "fishing expedition" means an opportunity to ramp up the USO's support for America's troops and their families.
A few years ago, Bob established the annual "USO Open" bass fishing tournament held throughout the northeast at venues such as Lake Champlain, Lake George and the Hudson River to promote the USO among fishing enthusiasts and raise money. He has also manned a USO table at "The World Fishing Exposition" at Rockland Community College. His efforts have raised more than $10,000 in donations for USO of Metropolitan New York.
Bob seems to have boundless energy and always steps in to fill a variety of needs, including last minute holes in the schedule, deployments, homecomings, golf outings, galas and other special events. During Fleet Week, Bob was stationed full time at Staten Island's Home Port, overseeing hospitality and welcoming sailors and marines to New York City. Bob graciously provides transportation to other USO volunteers trying to get into the city from New Jersey, and can often be seen transporting the USO Liberty Bells to and from entertainment events. He believes there is nothing more important than the USO "being there" which is why he's willing to drive other volunteers to the ends of the earth to boost the morale of our troops.
After a tour of Vietnam with the 25th Infantry Division of the Army and a career as a firefighter from Hackensack, NJ, Bob has first-hand experience of the challenges faced by today's service members. With a son currently in the Air Force, he can also relate to the families of those currently deployed. These connections allow him to provide service to our troops and their families with great empathy and compassion.
Don't let Bob's kindness fool you though. If you are a "fish" on the other end of his pole, he will adeptly "bait" you in to support USO of Metropolitan New York any way he can. And no fish is too small or large to help him meet the mission of lifting the spirits of America's troops and their families.
For some US service members, being stationed overseas can feel a little like a chapter out of the novel Gulliver's Travels. Troops are suddenly in a strange new world where everything looks, feels, sounds and tastes different. And like our story's protagonist who explored the islands of Lilliput, Brobdingnag, or the Country of the Houyhnhnms, it's hard for newly-arrived soldiers to know how to "navigate" so many cultural differences.
In steps Heeyoung Lim to the rescue from Camp Walker in Deagu, Korea. Her warm and generous personality instantly breaks down cultural barriers for visitors to the USO. And with her strong bilingual skills, she helps our men and women in uniform adjust to life in Korea by giving them useful information about public transportation, local eateries, and Korean customs and business practices. Sometimes just a simple translation from Korean to English in a routine matter can mean the world to a confused service member.
Seeing a need, Ms. Lim recently ran a program for the Camp Walker community that she named "Korean Traditional Market Tour." She organized an outing to one of Deagu's largest outdoor markets so service members could get a taste and feel for everyday Korean life. She helped participants identify and taste foods produced by street vendors as well as introduced them to the art of bargaining. This program was so successful that the Camp Walker military command expressed interest in learning more.
Heeyoung Lim's enthusiasm for Korean culture and cross-cultural experiences transport Camp Walker's Korean experience from inside the USO center to outside the gates of the installation. By helping troops feel more integrated into the culture, she is able to create that feeling of a "home away from home" so vital to the military community.
Too bad Gulliver didn't have Ms. Lim at his side when he landed on Lilliput or Brobdingnag. She would have helped him see that no matter how different our cultures may be, we are equally human at the core.
We would love to hear from you.

Comments about Astral Buoyancy Co. Bird Dog K9 PFD:
Far superior that our old Outward Hound PFD. Superior cut and floatation. No velcro that gets full of sand. Keeps our 28 pound dachshund/Pug cross orientated properly while swimming. The small has a smaller girth than advertised and the straps could use some extra lenght. If Tucker gains any more weight I will have to make a strap extension similar to what the airlines have for extra large people. Otherwise it is as close to perfect as it can be.
- Great Fit
Best Uses
- Canoeing
- Kayaking

Comments about Astral Buoyancy Co. Bird Dog K9 PFD:
I trust Astral to make great pfd's, so when they came out with one for dogs, I had to give it a try. I'm impressed with the fit and how well my dog can move in it. Other features, like a nice grab handle and adjustable closures, make it really easy to use.

The United Nations Climate Change Conference in Doha, Qatar, concluded on Saturday, December 8, accomplishing somewhat less than "a complete transformation of the economic structure of the world," a goal that conference chief Christiana Figueres had announced at the start of the global summit.
Figueres, the executive secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), presided over the Doha summit (also known in UN-speak as COP18, for the 18th Conference Of Parties) which was scheduled to run from November 26-December 8. The conference ran into overtime, ending on December 9, but still failing to deliver the "deliverables" demanded by Figueres, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and their supportive lobby of "green" activist NGOs.
Chief among their demands was extending the Kyoto Protocol, a binding agreement on emissions reductions adopted in 1997 at the UNFCCC in Kyoto, Japan. However, only 37 of the 194 nations meeting at Doha signed on to an extension of Kyoto, and many of their commitments were tenuous at that. The United States never officially joined, thanks to refusal by the U.S. Senate to ratify the Kyoto agreement that Vice President Al Gore had helped negotiate and President Bill Clinton had signed. Canada has dropped out of Kyoto and Russia and Japan have refused to renew their commitments. India and China, which are responsible for the biggest increases in man-made "greenhouse gas" (GHG) emissions, are on pace to greatly expand those emissions. Together, India and China account for 76 percent of the 1,200 coal-fired power plants currently under construction or planned for construction globally.
In a December 4 address to the high-level segment of COP18, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon spoke in apocalyptic terms of the "existential" threat to humanity and the planet posed by the "crisis" of climate change. He stated:
Let us be under no illusion. This is a crisis. A threat to us all. Our economies. Our security. And the well-being of our children and those who will come after.
The danger signs are all around. One third of the world's population lives in countries with moderate to high water stress. Land degradation affects 1.5 billion people. Icecaps are showing unprecedented melting; permafrost is thawing; sea levels are rising. The abnormal is now the new normal.

Before the game even began, the Rangers had a spot of good fortune: all three players that were injured (Marian Gaborik, Chris Higgins, and Sean Avery) and sat out the Minnesota game, returned to the lineup, giving New York their complete roster heading into an important conference matchup.
And the Rangers took care of business, defeating the Boston Bruins 1 - 0 on a goal by none-other than recovered sniper Gaborik.
Late in the second period, Gaborik snapped a one-timer from the high slot on a pass from Vinny Prospal that beat Bruins' goalie Tim Thomas on the glove side.
The goal was Gaborik's 11th in 13 games.
Prospal carried the offensive weight the past couple of games in Gaborik's absence.
"His work ethic is unbelievable. He is a great
playmaker," said Gaborik of Prospal. "He goes there and works hard. He sees the ice, you can
see that every night out there. He is looking to pass and he did
Work ethic has been a question of the team the past two weeks, as they have encountered stale outings against lower-ranked teams such as the New York Islanders and Minnesota Wild.
Praised for their work throughout training camp and early on in the season, the team seemed to hit a plateau that was only magnified in the absence of their star player in Gaborik.
However, the Rangers renewed some of their vitality against Boston, playing a smart defensive game with cleaner play in the neutral zone.
"[Boston] is a tough team to play against -- the way they play, how strong defensively they are, how they play in the neutral zone," said Massachusetts native Head Coach John Tortorella."I thought our decision making was good. I thought our grinding was better."
Slow starters Chris Drury, Chris Higgins, and Ryan Callahan also had an extra step in their stride as each was more involved with the play throughout the game.
Callahan got back to his "skate-first, ask questions later" style of play, while Drury continued to work hard on both ends of the ice, including blocking some tough shots from the point.
Higgins, while he still hasn't scored, worked hard and has become a more physical presence. His north-south style will eventually pay off in goals.
But not to be outdone, goaltender Henrik Lundqvist maintained the one-goal lead with a spectacular performance for his first shutout of the season.
While the game was back-and-forth for the first two periods, Boston picked their play up in the third period, swarming around the Rangers' crease looking for the tying goal.
Outshooting the Rangers 14 - 6 in the period, Boston had several scoring opportunities that were stymied by Lundqvist, particularly late in the period.
"Obviously [Lundqvist] was great for us in net," said Prospal. "He made some huge saves throughout the whole hockey game. We were able to score the goal and it proved to be the winner."
"They are a really good hockey team."
Following the game, the team took off on their first major road trip of the season, visiting the West Coast, beginning with a game tomorrow night against the Vancouver Canucks.

Put on the Atomic Live Fit 130 for the first time and it will instantly and automatically fit to your foot.
Put on the Atomic Live Fit 130 for the first time and it will instantly and automatically fit to your foot. This stiff, wide-fit all-mountain ski boot then continuously adapts as time goes on to keep your feet comfortable and your blood flowing freely. It's all thanks to the unique Live Fit zones that snugly enclose the forefoot and provide an instant wide fit for this top boot in the Live Fit range, plus Dynashape foam in the liner. This year we've also added 3M™ Thinsulate™ Platinum, the world's premium insulation, to keep your feet warm and responsive when it's well below zero. And we've upgraded the two oversize buckle set-up with lighter, sportier buckles that make the boot easier to put on and take off , while performance and foot-hold remain exceptional. Plus it's now WTR compatible.
Live Fit liners now come with 3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulation to keep feet warm and responsive even in extremely cold and damp conditions. Thinsulate Platinum surrounds the whole foot while standard Thinsulate is placed in the toe box only.
These zones automatically adapt to your forefoot shape providing instant comfort, improved feel, better blood flow, warmer toes and happier feet.
We've revamped Live Fit's successful twin-buckle design with lighter, sportier, easier to handle buckles.

Actual Conversation
Friday, February 26, 2010
Me: (stumbling a bit) Uhh. Thanks? What great news?
Neighbor: Oh. You know. The news you're not sharing with anyone?
Me: No. I don't know what you mean... Are you talking about my conference?
Neighbor: No. The OTHER good news. You know, the news you are not telling everyone...
(wink wink. nudge nudge. say no more, say no more.)
Me: I have no idea what you are talking about.
Neighbor: (sigh) Your new baby. Thing 2 has told the entire neighborhood that you're pregnant.
{Crickets Chirping}
Me: WHAT?
Neighbor: Now. Don't get mad. He's just excited. He said he hopes you're going to have a brother because he hates being the lone boy in the family.
Me: WHAT?? I'm... WHAT?? Seriously. WHAT THE CRAP?? He told everyone? Really?
Neighbor: yeah. When is it due?
Me: Umm. Like, oh, I don't know. Maybe around the date of NEVER! I'm totally not pregnant.
Neighbor: You're not? Really? Are you sure?
Me: Really. I'm 100% sure I'm not pregnant. I just started my question mark. I'm totally sure I'm not having a baby. Why would he SAY THAT?
Neighbor: Well, he said you parked in the "Expecting Mother" parking spot at the grocery store and he got really excited. He figured you just weren't telling him until you were sure it was a boy.
Me: Uhh. No. I parked there because it was the closest spot to the front door, and I'm lazy.

Another federal appeals court has issued a ruling against the Department of Health and Human Service's (HHS) contraception mandate, which requires employers to provide free abortion-causing contraceptives to their employees. On January 30 a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit issued a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of the mandate on behalf of Grote Industries, an Indiana-based automotive lighting manufacturer whose Catholic owners sued the government to permanently stop the rule because its abortion-pill provision violates their moral convictions.
The Seventh Circuit panel, which overruled a district court ruling denying the injunction, noted that the Grote family claims the mandate would compel them "to materially cooperate in a grave moral wrong contrary to the teachings of their church," and refusing to obey the mandate would result in "several financial penalties."
The panel concluded in a 2-1 decision that "the Grote Family and Grote Industries have established a reasonable likelihood of success on the merits of their RFRA [Religious Freedom Restoration Act] claim." The court predicted that the family would "suffer irreparable harm absent an injunction pending appeal, and the balance of harms tips in their favor."
In December the same panel issued an identical injunction on behalf of an Illinois-based business, Korte & Luitjohan Contractors, also Catholic-owned. In the latest ruling the panel noted that in "all important respects, this case is identical to Korte; our analysis there applies with equal force here. If anything, the Grote Family and Grote Industries have a more compelling case for an injunction pending appeal."

By R. EARL HALTONEast Carbon
In regards to comments and rumors mentioned in the Sun Advocate (10-13-05) and in prior city meetings, I would like to put an end to the rumors.
We are a small understaffed all volunteer fire department and the only way we can make things any better is with the support and involvement of the community as a whole.
As to the "State Fire Officials" mentioned whom stated that "East Carbon Fire Members had only shown up to training one time," I would like their names so I can personally ask them which time are they talking about.
Would that be the training we took in East Carbon City, Wellington, Price, Park City, St. George, or Elmo? Which one is the one that counts? They all took a lot of our time.
Just off the top of my head out of our eight current members the current levels of training completed at this point include two people at the first responder training, one member at basic EMT, three at Haz-Mat Awareness, two at Haz-Mat Operations, five at Wildland Firefighting, five at the Firefighter one course, three at Firefighter, two at Firefighter Survival, one at LAR Opps, one at Fire Service Instructor, one at Fire Service Opps & Command, three at Training Tower Operator, and four at the Pyrotechnics Operator class. Besides this, I'm sure I am missing a couple of items on my list.
That being said I would like to invite any citizen of East Carbon City desiring to make changes in our Fire Department to step up and sign on as a firefighter, because if you have what it takes we would love to have you. It takes dedication and commitment and your city needs you.
Myself, due to loss of local employment, along with several other members of our department whom have had to step down, will regretably be moving out of this fine city. More regretably I will be turning in my fire gear as well,
There will be a new training officer and he has the knowledge and dedication to do the job right.

To Be or Not to Be
1942. USA. Ernst Lubitsch. 99 min.
Wednesday, April 24, 2013, 4:30 p.m.
Theater 1 (The Roy and Niuta Titus Theater 1), T1
To Be or Not to Be
1942. USA. Directed by Ernst Lubitsch. With Carole Lombard, Jack Benny, Robert Stack, Lionel Atwill, Felix Bressart. Lubitsch had been a major director in Germany during World War I and under Weimar (specializing in comedies and spectacles), but he came to Hollywood a decade before the Nazis' rise to power. A native Berliner and Max Reinhardt protégé, Lubitsch seemed to relish the opportunity to scathingly satirize his former countrymen. Weimar veteran Bressart had a major role in Henry Koster's Peter, which was shown earlier in this series. 99 min.

I currently work in technical support for a software/hardware company and for the most part it's a good job, but it's feeling more and more like I'm getting 'stuck' here. No raises in the 5 years I've been here, and lately there seems to be more hiring from the outside than promotion from within. The work I do is more technical than end-user support, as we deal primarily with our field technicians who have a little more technical skill than the general user base. As a result I get into much more technical support issues... often tracking down bugs in our software, finding performance bottlenecks in our database schema, etc.
The work I'm most proud of are the development projects I've come up with on my own, and worked on during lunch breaks and slow periods in Support. Over the years I've written a number of useful utilities for the company. Diagnostic type applications that several departments use and appreciate. These include apps that simulate our various hardware devices, log file analysis, time-saving utilities for our work processes, etc. My best projects have been the hardware simulation programs, which are the type of thing we probably wouldn't have put a full-time developer on had anyone thought to do it, but they've ended up being popular and useful enough to be used by development, QA, R&D, and Support. They allow us to interface our software with simulated hardware, rather than clutter up our work areas with bulky, hard to acquire equipment.
Since starting here my life has moved forward (married, kid, one more on the way), but it feels like my career has not. I still earn what I earned walking in the door my first day. Company budget is tight, bonuses have gone down, and no raises or cost of living / inflation adjustments either. As the sole source of income for my family I feel I need to do more, and I'd like to have a more active role in creating something at work, not just cleaning up other people's mistakes. I enjoy technical work, and I think development is the next logical step in my career. I'd like to bring some "legitimacy" to my part-time development work, and make myself a more skilled and valuable employee. Ultimately if this can help me better support my family, that would be ideal.
Can I make the jump to professional developer? I have an engineering degree, but no formal education in computer science. I write WinForms apps using the .NET framework, do some freelance web development, have volunteered to write software for a nonprofit, and have started experimenting with programming microcontrollers. I enjoy learning new things in the limited free time I have available. I think I have the aptitude to take on a development role, even in an 'apprentice' capacity if such an option is possible.
Have any of you moved into development like this? Do any of you developers have any advice or cautionary tales? Are there better career options I haven't thought of? I welcome any and all related comments and thank you in advance for posting them.

BUFFALO, NY- From the vistas of the ever expanding Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus to the early Friday happy hour crowd at the Michael A's bar in the Hotel @ Lafayette, there's a feeling that seems to be "building downtown" with more people who are recuited to work at the campus moving in to downtown.
More evidence of that momentum can be seen as a portion of Ellicott Street is now closed for preliminary construction work for the new Children's Hospital. And Dr. Richard Quigg can watch as he sets up his new kidney research lab from the eighth floor of the Gates Vascular Institute across the street.
Quigg came here six weeks ago from the University of Chicago as Chief of Nephrology. He was impressed by what he calls a visionary UB med school leadership and a city he now calls home after moving into the waterfront area.
Quigg says "The city has a lot of options for anyone. I saw the real estate in the summer and it was very appealing to me. The cost of living is low relative to Chicago for sure."
Those options include all the lofts, especially on Ellicott Street and they are just blocks away from the medical campus. By the way, there are no vacancies in developer Rocco Termini's seven properties which include the Lafayette. He says all 450 apartments are filled and there is a waiting list of 100 people.
Termini says "We see a lot of them coming from the medical campus. People coming from out of town. They're accustomed to living in downtown wherever they came from so they want to continue living downtown. They also wanna live close to where they're working and downtown is the perfect spot."
Quigg says he is recruiting some faculty members for his new team and spoke of his experiences so far in the Queen City. "I'm very happy here and it has the things I want in a city. It's..look I came from Chicago. For me to get to work in eight minutes at eight in the morning...is ah...oh Thank You."
We asked Termini if his new tenants tend to be higher income. He replied "They are and they're paying high rents for Buffalo. And nobody is saying anything cause where they're coming from rents run twice as much as what we're charging them here in Buffalo."

Tampa, Florida -- Movie theaters are normally known as a peaceful place.
A spot to clear your mind of the world's problems.
"You don't want to think about that sort of stuff. You want to get into a story," said moviegoer Chad Barron.
But on Friday, shootings in Colorado are on the minds of many people walking in to see a flick.
Gallery: Tweets, pictures and real time social media from Dark Knight shooting scene *warning, VERY GRAPHIC content*
Some say it's only natural for them to think about "could this happen to me?"
"Find the emergency exits when you don't usually do that. Look at them and wonder what it would be like? What would happen? What would I do?" Barron explained.
South Tampa clinical psychologist Dr. Jeffrey Merin expects fear will keep some people from going to the movies.
He anticipates those who do go may look over their shoulders for suspicious people or behavior.
"I think it immediately instills a lot of fear and anxiety," Merin said.
He tells 10 News that anxiety creates a couple of mental hurdles to clear.
The idea that things are out of our control and that something unpredictable may happen, especially in a dark place like a theater.
Pictures: PHOTO GALLERY from the shooting scene
"Now you have a sense of you can't escape. And that's very important for sense of calmness and how we feel about our world," Merin explained.
While Tampa Police plan to increase patrols at local theaters, just as a precaution, some movie fans hope that doesn't become a permanent fixture.
They're concerned that would be a constant reminder of possible danger.
"If you've got security guards or police officers standing at every door to a movie theater, I may feel like that's not a place I want to be at," said moviegoer Mark Stutzman.
Merin says if you are apprehensive about going to the movies, there's few things to keep in mind that may help.
He says to consider how isolated this incident is, along with how often people go to the movies without being hurt.
Merin explains there's a certain amount of risk anytime you leave the house, but you have to overcome that thought process.

One of the most exciting things I am looking forward to in my hypnotherapy sessions is working on the reasons behind my overeating / bad eating habits. I think the reason I always find it so hard to stick long term to any diet/exercise programme, is because I have never really addressed the reasons why I was obese / overweight in the first place.
An example of this is when I gave up smoking in 2008 I never looked at ways to cope with the void of not smoking. I still crave for something everytime I have a cuppa, I still crave for something after I finish a meal. More often then not I use food to fill that void.
I hope with having a opportunity to look at this during my sessions, I will not only of kicked the habit of smoking but also kick the unhealthy subsitutes I use to fill the void! Jo x

WALKER, Mich. (WZZM) -- The Sally Hansen at-home gel manicure kit claims that in two easy steps, you can have chip-resistant nails with a mirror shine for up to two weeks. It comes with nail strips and a top coat that you cure under a mini LED light.
Aqueelah Seifullah helped me test it out. You have to prep your nails by cleaning, filing and buffing them. Then you apply the nail strips, which were thin like plastic wrap.
Aqueelah thought the strips were a bit awkward to apply and they were hard to get all the way to the edge. They tell you to file off the excess at the tip of the nail and that was hard too. They didn't look very neat when Aqueelah was finished.
Then you apply a top coat to each nail and cure each under the LED light for 30 seconds and wipe each off with a cleansing pad. They looked pretty good when she was done. They were shiny and made her nails hard. But, it was time consuming and seemed like way more than two easy steps.
So, how long would it last? Unfortunately Aqueelah saw major chipping after three days. She said the edges would peel up and get caught in her hair. Then, whole nails started chipping away. It didn't even last a week.
Aqueelah had high hopes because she thought they looked pretty good the first day, but was very disappointed that they only lasted about three days.
Aqueelah also said removing the polish was also time consuming. You have to soak a cotton ball with polish remover and wrap your nails with foil and let that sit for a bit before you scrap off the polish. She had to do this twice to get the color off. She said that process took her about a half hour.
Now, this might take practice and some of this may get easier, but we're not so sure the polish will last much longer because of the way it peeled on Aqueelah's nails.
We found the Sally Hansen gel manicure kit at a number of places, including Meijer and Walgreens. We bought the kit for $27.99. The nail strips by themselves are $13.99, depending on the store.
