Workers saw a modest rise in the average cost of employer-sponsored health insurance this year, but they're probably not overwhelmed with relief.

WHAT THESE GUYS DO ISN'T PROFESSIONAL. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE. I told this story last year and, like describing an exceptional shot much less a whole round of golf, it's worth telling again. After all, this was a round of a whole lifetime, and lifetimes last a whole lot longer because of it.

Incoming Shelby County Commission chairman Mike Ritz wants to add a countywide sales tax hike for education to the Nov. 6 ballot.

WHAT THESE GUYS DO ISN'T PROFESSIONAL. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE. The other day, I played in a golf scramble – a format where four players hit every shot, pick the best, and turn in one score at the end. And we had two mulligans each (do-overs) and a toss (a throw yourself out of trouble when you've just hit a shot so nauseating you want to toss). We played well, making putts and clutch shots, using our mulligans and tosses wisely, and turning in a score two or three strokes better than we thought ourselves capable of – 62, 10 under par.

The only thing Republican candidates in Shelby County were denied in the Aug. 5 elections was a majority on the Shelby County Commission. The local GOP slate swept every countywide partisan race on the ballot with Thursday's election results.
Voter turnout – early and Election Day – was almost 30 percent of Shelby County's 600,000 voters. All election returns will be audited and must be certified by the Shelby County Election Commission.
Republican Bill Oldham, the former chief deputy of the Sheriff's Department under outgoing Sheriff Mark Luttrell, beat Democrat Randy Wade in the race for sheriff.
The unofficial returns with all precincts reporting were:
Wade, who was the Democratic nominee for sheriff in 2002, linked his 2010 campaign to the re-election bid of Democratic U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen. Wade, a former sheriff's deputy, is Cohen's district director.
Oldham campaigned on continuing the policies of Luttrell. But his campaign faltered when Oldham was forced to resign his job as chief deputy – the No. 2 position in the department – following a complaint to the U.S. Justice Department that his candidacy violated the Federal Hatch Act.
The civil complaint investigated by the Justice Department's Office of Special Counsel left Oldham with the choice of either quitting the job or quitting the race. To keep both could have jeopardized federal funding the department receives.
The complaint was unique because deputies and high-ranking officers running for sheriff has been a regular feature of the sheriff's race for decades. It wasn't until 2002 that those in the department were required to take a leave of absence if they ran.
In other general election races, challenger Ken Hoover lost to Shelby County School Board Chairman David Pickler in the race for the District 5 seat on the seven-member board.
Pickler has been chairman for 11 of the 12 years the school board has been an elected body. Pickler ran on his record as chairman. Hoover also ran on Pickler's record, saying his leadership style was too autocratic and not transparent enough.
The unofficial results were:
In the two other contested school board races, former Bolton High School principal Snowden "Butch" Carruthers beat Millington parent Charlene White in District 1. And political newcomer David Reaves beat fellow newcomer Lara A. McIntyre, both of Bartlett, for the District 3 seat.
White and McIntyre both called for change in school board methods during their campaigns.
District 7 school board member Ernest Chism ran unopposed.
The even-numbered district school board seats are on the 2012 county ballot.
After running for Probate Court clerk three other times, Democratic nominee Sondra Becton could not claim the office on her fourth try – even with the incumbent she campaigned against the three other times out of the race. Republican contender Paul Boyd easily beat Becton in the race for the office Chris Thomas gave up to run for and win a seat on the Shelby County Commission.
Becton lost to Thomas by 604 votes four years ago and was among the four Democratic challengers who unsuccessfully challenged the results in Chancery Court. This time she lost by more than 6,500 votes.
The vote totals were:
Republican Tom Leatherwood easily defeated Democratic challenger Coleman Thompson to remain Shelby County register. The two faced each other in 2006, with Leatherwood winning.
The results Thursday were:
As early voting began, Thompson's Pyramid Recovery Center was evicted from its longtime South Memphis space that was also an early voting site and an election day polling place. The landlord agreed to leave the voting sites up and running. But the possibility of a change in polling places served to highlight Thompson's financial problems.
Late publicity about financial problems took a toll on another Democratic contender.
Newcomer Corey Maclin began campaigning early for Shelby County clerk, with incumbent Republican Debbie Stamson not seeking re-election. Maclin lost to Republican nominee Wayne Mashburn, the son of late county clerk Sonny Mashburn.
The unofficial returns were:
Stamson's husband, Steve Stamson, retired as Juvenile Court clerk, setting up the race that was won by Republican nominee Joy Touliatos, the chief administrative officer of the clerk's office. She beat Democratic nominee Shep Wilbun, who won appointment to the clerk's office in 2000 but lost to Stamson in the 2002 election and was beaten by Stamson again in 2006.
With all precincts reporting, the numbers were:
The remaining votes went to independent candidate Julia R. Wiseman.
Also seeking a return to countywide office was Minerva Johnican. Johnican, the Democratic nominee for Criminal Court clerk, lost to Republican nominee Kevin Key, the son of outgoing Criminal Court Clerk Bill Key and an administrator with the Circuit Court Clerk's office.
The results were:
Johnican, also a former Memphis City Council member and Shelby County Commissioner lost the clerk's job in 1994 when she was upset by the elder Key.
Incumbent Republican Circuit Court Clerk Jimmy Moore easily defeated Democratic challenger Ricky Dixon. Although Dixon was part of the effort by Democratic party leaders to get voters to vote the entire party slate, Moore continued to show up at Democratic functions and make his case for crossover votes.
Regina Morrison Newman, the third Shelby County tustee in four years, lost her bid for a full term in the office to Republican challenger David Lenoir. It was an impressive political debut for Lenoir, who had heavy backing from the local GOP.
Independent candidate Derrick Bennett: 6,353 (4%)
Newman was appointed to the office by the Shelby County Commission following the 2009 death of Trustee Paul Mattila. Mattila was appointed to the office and won a special election for the position following the 2008 death of Bob Patterson. Patterson was re-elected to a four-year term in 2006.
In the judicial races:
Attorney Bill Anderson Jr. emerged atop a field of 20 candidates for General Sessions Criminal Court Judge Div. 7 with 15 percent of the vote. Assistant County Attorney Janet Lansky Shipman was second and the only other contender to go into double digit percentages. The 20 candidates were the largest field in any race – primary or general – on the Shelby County ballot.
Prosecutor Bobby Carter, who had the backing of District Attorney General Bill Gibbons and former District Attorney General John Pierotti, was elected judge of Criminal Court Div. 3 in a close race with attorneys Glenn Wright and Latonya Sue Burrow.
Carter got 26 percent of the vote to Wright's 25 percent and Burrow's 24.7 percent.
The results in the three other special judicial races saw the three appointed judges rejected by voters.
Ridder and Hurd had been appointed to the Circuit Court vacancies by Gov. Phil Bredesen, who picked them each from a list of three finalists from the Judicial Nominating Commission. Bredesen even taped a robo-call on behalf of Hurd, his first robo-call for any candidate in the state.
Wilson was appointed to the General Sessions vacancy by the Shelby County Commission and adopted a domestic violence case docket for the court.

Interim County Mayor Joe Ford became the Democratic nominee for mayor in the August county general elections Tuesday night.
And the August sheriff's race will be a contest between Democrat Randy Wade and Republican Randy Wade.
All three were among the winners in Tuesday's low turnout county primaries.
Approximately ten percent of Shelby County's nearly 600,000 voters cast ballots in early voting and election day polling.
Ford, who was appointed interim mayor in December, beat County Commissioner Deidre Malone and General Sessions Court Clerk Otis Jackson in the Democratic primary. He will face Republican Mark Luttrell who had only token opposition in the Republican primary from perennial contender Ernie Lunati.
Luttrell has raised more money than all three of the Democratic primary contenders combined and began running television ads in the last week runup to election day.
The final unofficial totals in the Democratic mayoral primary are:
Ford 20,360 57%
Malone 12,916 37%
Jackson 2,168 6%
The pair of primaries for Sheriff featured eight candidates, seven of whom either currently work for the sheriff's department or are past employees. Only Reginald French, in the Democratic primary was not a former or current department official.
Wade was the 2002 Democratic nominee, losing to Luttrell who is leaving as Sheriff after serving two terms. French was the Democratic nominee in the 2006 elections.
Oldham is Luttrell's chief deputy, the number two position in the department. He is also a former director of the Memphis Police Department.
The final unofficials totals in the Republican primary are:
Bill Oldham 13,821 48%
Dale Lane 7,981 28%
Bobby Simmons 5,886 21%
James Coleman 943 3%
In the Democratic primary:
Randy Wade 22,643 67%
Reginald French 6,777 20%
Larry Hill 2,738 8%
Bennie Cobb 1,814 5%
Voters in the primary elections decided to return six Shelby County commissioners to new four year terms with Tuesday's results. They also elected six new commissioners. The winner of the thirteenth commission seat will be decided on the August general election ballot in a contest between district 5 Democratic incumbent Steve Mulroy and Republican challenger Dr. Rolando Toyos. The winner of the match up will determine whether the commission remains majority Democrat or goes majority Republican.
Mulroy easily defeated Jennings Bernard in Tuesday's Democratic primary.
Republican incumbent Mike Ritz ran unopposed as did new Democratic commissioner Walter Bailey.
In the remaining ten contests, the primaries decided who gets the seats since no one ran in the opposing party's primary.
The most hotly contested contest among the commission races was for District 4 Position 1. Outgoing Probate Court Clerk Chris Thomas beat John Pellicciotti, appointed to a commission seat last year but running for a different position in the same district. Jim Bomprezzi, the former mayor of Lakeland, was the third contender in the contest.
The final unofficial totals in the Republican primary:
Thomas 7,631 52%
Pellicciotti 4,871 33%
Bomprezzi 2,298 15%
In position 2 of the same district incumbent Republican Wyatt Bunker easily overcame two challengers with former Lakeland alderman John Wilkerson finishing second and Ron Fittes finishing third.
Millington businessman Terry Roland claimed the third position in the district that takes in all six of Shelby County's suburban towns and cities.
Roland beat George Chism to take the seat Pellicciotti was appointed to but opted not to run for in deference to Roland.
Heidi Shafer, an aide to outgoing County Commissioner George Flinn, claimed Flinn's District 1 Position 2 seat over Albert Maduska.in the GOP primary.
District 1 incumbent Republican Mike Carpenter easily beat businessman Joe Baier.
In the Democratic commission primaries, Melvin Burgess claimed Malone's District 2 Position 3 seat in a field of six contenders. His closest contender was Reginald Milton. Burgess, a city school system audit manager, had run for the seat before. He brought in 54 percent of the vote.
The other hard fought Democratic commission primary saw Justin Ford, son of the interim mayor, claim his father's District 3 Position 3 seat.
Ford beat Edith Moore, a retired IBM executive, whom the commission appointed to the seat after the elder Ford became mayor.
The final unofficial vote totals are:
Ford 7,342 66%
Moore 3,822 34%
Democratic incumbent commissioners Henri Brooks, Sidney Chism and James Harvey were all re-elected over primary challengers.
The county-wide primaries for seven clerk's positions saw the return of former Criminal Court Clerk Minerva Johnican 16 years after Republican challenger Bill Key took her job. Johnican decisively beat Ralph White and Vernon Johnson in her first bid for office since the 1994 defeat. She will face Republican Kevin Key, the son of Bill Key in the August general election.
Johnican 16,381 51%
White 10,170 31%
Johnson 5,954 18%
Former Juvenile Court Clerk Shep Wilbun easily won the Democratic primary with 76 percent of the vote to face Republican Joy Touliatos in August for the office being vacated by Republican Steve Stamson. Touliatos was unopposed in the primary.
Democrat Coleman Thompson is back for another go at incumbent Republican Register Tom Leatherwood.
Aside from Leatherwood, Jimmy Moore is the only other of the seven clerks seeking re-election. Moore ran unopposed in the GOP primary. He will face Democrat Ricky Dixon in August.
Trustee Regina Newman was appointed to her office following the death last year of Paul Mattila. Newman easily overcame M LaTroy Williams in Tuesday's Democratic primary. She will face David Lenoir, who beat former Shelby County Commissioner John Willingham in the Republican contest.

Early voting in advance of the Aug. 5 election day begins July 16. The August ballot will also feature state and federal primary elections including the statewide primaries for governor and the primaries for all nine of the state's Congressional districts.
A field of more than 80 candidates who applied for the job of Center City Commission president and CEO has been winnowed down to three finalists.
After an intensive session of interviews with a short list of seven candidates, the CCC's executive search committee is bringing back three for one last round of interviews with Downtown stakeholders, CCC board members and staff.
Two Memphians are among the three finalists for the soon-to-be-open job of Center City Commission president.
Andy Kitsinger, senior vice president of planning and development for the CCC, and Paul Morris, a Memphis attorney and former CCC chairman, are in the running.
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama, treading carefully on the explosive issue of abortion and the U.S. Supreme Court, said Wednesday he will choose a nominee who pays heed to women's rights and privacy when interpreting the Constitution.
It is the smallest office of the clerk's positions on the May 5 primary ballot.
But because the Probate Court Clerk's Office and the court's two divisions deal primarily with wills and estates, it might be the one office that begins with the simplest mission.
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama's candidates for the Supreme Court include a new name, federal appeals court judge Sidney Thomas of Montana, and at least six others who were considered contenders when Obama chose his first high court nominee last year, The Associated Press has learned.
Retiring U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens is the justice whose circuit includes Memphis.
His retirement, announced Friday after Stevens had increasingly talked of leaving the court, will mean a change that will probably be most noticed in the handling of last minute appeals in death penalty cases
A search for successors to departing Center City Commission president Jeff Sanford has generated significant local interest.
Out of more than 70 applicants who submitted resumes to the CCC's executive search team, the field appears to be narrowing to around 20 people who most closely fit the job description.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Record-low interest rates are still needed to rev up the economic recovery, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told Congress on Thursday.
Bernanke, in testimony to the House Financial Services Committee, essentially repeated the rationale behind the Fed's decision last week to hold rates near zero. He cited still-fragile economic conditions, and noted that inflation is low, which gives the Fed leeway to keep rates at rock-bottom levels.
Before St. Jude Children's Research Hospital became the sprawling complex of medical buildings in Uptown Memphis, the original facility was more modest, but no less important to the city's landscape.
The Memphis Symphony Orchestra officially handed the baton to its fourth music director Feb. 22 in a brief welcome assembly of musicians, arts patrons and local government leaders at The Cannon Center for the Performing Arts.
Shelby County Sheriff Mark Luttrell appeared on his way to the Republican nomination for Shelby County mayor at Thursday's noon filing deadline for candidates on the May 4 primary ballot.
Luttrell faces only token opposition from perennial candidate Ernie Lunati.
Meanwhile, the Democratic primary for mayor grew to three contenders as General Sessions Court Clerk Otis Jackson filed his qualifying petition just before the deadline. He joins interim County Mayor Joe Ford and Shelby County Commissioner Deidre Malone.
Luttrell ruled out a bid for Shelby County mayor last year (2009). But when Harold Byrd decided not to run in the Democratic primary, some local GOP leaders asked Luttrell to reconsider.
The result touched off a scramble of candidates from both parties for the open sheriff's office. But before the noon deadline, the initial field of over a dozen possible contenders was narrowed to ten – six Democrats and four Republicans.
The other surprise at the filing deadline was the return of attorney Walter Bailey to the District 2 Position 1 seat he gave up in the 2006 elections. Bailey sought re-election then to another term despite a two term limit on commissioners. Bailey lost to J.W. Gibson who decided not to seek re-election. He also lost a court fight to overturn the term limits.
Bailey was the only candidate who had filed for the seat at the Thursday deadline.
Only one incumbent county commissioner – Republican Mike Ritz -- was effectively re-elected at the deadline because he had no opposition.
All but one of the eleven contested County Commission races will be decided with the May 4 primaries. The only general election battle for the August ballot is the district 5 contest between GOP challenger Dr. Rolando Toyos and whoever wins the May Democratic primary between incumbent Steve Mulroy and Jennings Bernard.
Former County Commissioner John Willingham also returned to the ballot among a field of Republican contenders in the primary for Shelby County Trustee.
And former Criminal Court Clerk Minerva Johnican joined the Democratic primary field for her old job. Incumbent Republican Bill Key pulled petition to seek re-election but did not file at the deadline.
Here is the list of races and contenders from The Shelby County Election Commission. All candidate have until noon Feb. 25 to withdraw from the ballot if they wish.

(Dec 08, 2008) With its ascent to the six-month rotating European Union presidency scheduled to commence on January 1, 2009, the Czech Republic is setting the agenda for its leadership role. The Czech government has chosen as its representative slogan "Europe without barriers," alluding to the country's stand on eliminating the labor barriers between the new and old member states. As Prague's Ambassador to the European Union, Milena Vicenova, articulated, the Czech Republic has established "three E's" at the center of its EU presidency agenda: economy and efficiency, energy, and external relations. In regard to the current global financial crisis and the stimulus package put together by the European Commission with the support of the current French presidency of the EU, the Ambassador stated that the Czech Republic does not wish "to return to protectionism and excessive state regulation," thus distancing itself from the French presidency, which called for more government intervention. The lack of discussion of EU-Russia relations in the context of the external relations priority is also considered to be a move away from past statements.
The Ambassador also stated that the Czech Republic was moving towards ratification of the Lisbon Treaty sometime in January 2009, following a positive decision of the country's constitutional court. (Czechs Unveil Priorities for EU Presidency, EU OBSERVER, Dec. 1, 2008, available at http://euobserver.com/9/27209/?rk=1.)

Economics scholar to join USU
Well known professor comes from Hebrew University in Jerusalem
Herald Journal
By Kevin Opsahl
Staff Writer
An internationally known professor who has held faculty positions at some of the most prestigious schools in the country has agreed to teach at Utah State University.
The Jon M. Huntsman School of Business announced Thursday that Eytan Sheshinski was invited as a Jon M. Huntsman Presidential Visiting Professor.
Sheshinski is now the Sir Isaac Wolfson Professor of Public Finance at Hebrew University in Jerusalem. He is well known in the business community in Israel, having worked with their largest conglomerate – Koor Industries – in the 1990's. He splits his time between Jerusalem and Princeton, N.J.
"He's clearly one of the leaders in financial economics, and his area of expertise is closely aligned with the faculty of the college," said Frank Caliendo, associate professor in the department of economics and finance. "So he seemed like a natural choice and when we approached him he seemed very eager and excited about what we're doing at the Huntsman School."
For three weeks, Sheshinski will teach a course to faculty, undergraduate and graduate students on annuity theory and annuity markets. He is widely viewed as a leading authority on issues such as privatization of social security and other industries. He will also speak at two of the dean's convocations in February, including a lecture on "Social Security Reforms Around the World." The lectures are free and open to the public.
"We are in the process of rebranding ourselves as a top tier business school; reputation matters," said Tyler Bowles, department head of economics and finance. "So what better way to bring a man of this caliber… to come to Logan, Utah, all the way from Jerusalem.
Sheshinski will be the second visiting professor under the Huntsman school after Utah philanthropist Jon M. Huntsman announced he would fund two presidential chars back in 2009. The idea behind the presidential chairs it to bring people to teach at USU with diverse backgrounds and perspectives.
The school will host another visiting professor from the University of Michigan in May.

A little girl in Georgia has been banned from her school's football team because of her gender. 11-year-old Maddy Paige played defensive tackle on the team.
"I was put as defensive tackle - first string. [...] The coaches were really proud and my teammates -- you know - pat on the back every time," she describes.
She joined the team as a sixth grader at Strong Rock Christian Middle School in Locust Grove. At first, other parents didn't realize that she was a girl, but upon finding out many were not pleased.
"The first sack that I made was in the fifth game. All the parents in the stands thought it was one of their boys. But when I stood up and they looked at their roster, and they saw it was me. I got amazing whoops and hollers," Maddy adds.
The school informed her parents of the fact that she will not be on the team anymore, prompting a decision by Maddy's mother to lobby for her daughter to be able to play.
"The coaches told me I did really well and that my teammates supported me, and then all of a sudden, that they were taking that away from me. It really is just sort of like taking a dream and just throwing it in the trash," Maddy complains.
"What they've done here is they've taken Maddy, let her have that cake, then taken it away and they smashed it," her mother comments.
According to ABC 15, the school board has not changed its policy and they sent a letter explaining that Maddy is to play girls' sports.
"Our official policy is that middle school girls play girl sports and middle school boys play boy sports," they said in a statement.

Those who live in Hougang will know about this Food Centre. Was impressed with what I ate. My colleague brought me there. His parents live in that area. This Punggol BCM is very popular. Longest queue in the whole market. Heard they just moved there less than 3 months ago. Husband and wife team. For $5, I got a bowl of noodles, topped with mushrooms, one gai geok (I think not usually given), and braised pork (I think also not usually given too). Maybe they gave me after I spoke to them politely and told them the brew smelled really delicious. Not sure lah. :). Very yummy with lots of vinegar. The mushroom slices are braised together with the pork and gai geok. And this bowl of soup full of ingredients. 2 big fish/meat balls, livers, mince pork etc...And this fen chang. Very worth it right? Tasted good too. Comfort food stall of my colleague. Selling for 30 yrs. He told me weekend very long queue. We were early (7am) so perhaps why there was no queue. Aunty dishing up the FCC. We had only the black FCC. Lots of chye po. Slightly burnt bits shiok.

Toasted Almond Butter Cookies
72 cookies
We found this recipe for a rich and nutty butter cookie in a manuscript cookbook containing recipes with an Austrian flavor. The recipes were typed on a manual typewriter and appeared to be from the 1930s. We believe that someone went over a collection of handwritten scraps and transcribed them so that they would be handed down in the family. This book was lovingly compiled.
- For the Cookies:
- 3 1/3 cups flour
- 1 2/3 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
- 2 cups cold butter, cut into 16 slices
- 3 egg yolks, lightly beaten
- For the Topping:
- 2 egg whites
- 1 cup toasted slivered almonds
For the Cookies: Place flour, confectioners' sugar, salt and lemon zest in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Pulse three times to mix. Add butter and pulse until crumbly. Add egg yolks and pulse until mixture comes together.
Remove dough from bowl of processor, divide in half, and shape each half into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap or wax paper and chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to form into balls.
Set the oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 14 x 16-inch baking sheet with foil, shiny side up, and coat with vegetable spray, or use a silicone liner.
Roll heaping teaspoons of dough into balls the size of marbles. Place 12 to 15 balls on each baking sheet.
For the Topping: In a small bowl, whisk egg whites to break them up. Cut out a 4 x 4-inch square of wax paper. Place the wax paper on top of a ball. Using the bottom of a drinking glass, gently press the ball flat. Continue to do this with each ball. (This method eliminates using any excess flour, but if you prefer, you can flatten cookies with the bottom of a glass dipped in flour.) Brush tops of cookies with egg white and sprinkle with slivered almonds. With your fingers, gently press the almonds into the dough. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges of cookies turn golden brown. Place baking sheet on rack and cool for 3 minutes. Remove cookies from baking sheet with a metal spatula and place on rack to cool completely. Store between sheets of waxed paper in a covered tin.
Notes: If dough becomes too soft to handle, return it to the refrigerator and chill until firm enough to handle. Do not press balls paper-thin.

9NEWS reported last week that the Rescue Mission was facing a turkey shortage just weeks before its annual Thanksgiving Day dinners for the homeless.
Southwest Airlines stepped up to the plate and donated more than 4,000 turkeys to help feed the poor and homeless this holiday season in the Denver area.
The turkeys along with other donations will be served beginning Nov. 25 during the annual Great Thanksgiving Banquet hosted by Governor Bill Ritter.
Southwest Airlines employees from Denver will also volunteer their time at the event.
Brad Meuli, president and CEO of the Denver Rescue Mission stated in a press release, "When Southwest Airlines says they care about Denver, they're not talking turkey. We are extremely grateful for the significant commitment of cash and volunteer time from Southwest Employees, just when we needed it most."
9NEWS is proud to recognize heroes in the community like Southwest Airlines. You can read more hero stories on the Hero Central page.

Fourier's integral theorem expresses a linear transformation, say , when applied to the space of square integrable functions. From this perspective one has
Remark 1: The fact that the Fourier transform is a one-to-one linear transformation from the linear space to the linear space is summarized by saying that the Fourier transform is an ``isomorphism''.
Remark 2: The line of reasoning leading to Parseval's identity also leads to
whenever .
Remark 3: The above two remarks imply that the Fourier transform is a unitary transformation in . Unitary transformations are ``isometries'' because they preserve lengths and inner products. One says, therefore, that the space of functions defined on the spatial domain is ``isometric'' to the space of functions defined on the Fourier domain. Thus the Fourier transform operator is a linear isometric mapping. This fact is depicted by Figure 2.6
Note, however, that even though the Fourier transform and its inverse,

Dining alone but not by choice
Lunchtime along McKnight Road: The lot ringing Wendy's is packed. Cars are clustered all around Applebee's. Parking is at a premium at Chili's.
I swing into a space directly in front of Chi-Chi's.
Trepidation over dining at any location of the once-popular Mexican restaurant chain has not diminished. This is understandable. Three people died after eating at the Beaver Valley Mall Chi-Chi's in late September and October. They were among 635 who fell ill with hepatitis A.
Contaminated green onions from Mexico are the outbreak's suspected culprit.
No one got sick by patronizing the Chi-Chi's in Ross, but the outbreak's effect on business has been devastating nonetheless. As I enter, I see only one diner amid the dozens of empty booths and tables.
The all-day half-off special on margaritas isn't proving much of a drawing card.
With no hostess or bartender on duty, I wait patiently until the lone waiter working emerges from the back. He seems surprised and grateful to see me standing there.
"Good afternoon sir," he says, then asks as though it matters: "Smoking or nonsmoking?"
The waiter, Jimmy Rhodes, 20, of Mt. Washington, disappears after taking my order. I am left to listen to Christmas music that would have been subtle background music had there been a crowd. Instead, it blares loudly through the nearly empty restaurant.
I approach the only other customer, a 40-something man as burly and bearded as he is approachable. Finishing his taco salad, Carl Gross of Butler doesn't mind a brief dining disruption to answer a few questions.
"Concerned about eating here• No, I was concerned that maybe the place wasn't open," he said. "The parking lot was empty."
"I know," I say. "I got a space right by the front door."
Gross says it's a shame his favorite Mexican eatery is suffering because of the outbreak. "This is a good place to eat. Hopefully, their problems are all fixed now, and people will start coming back."
Rhodes arrives with my shredded beef burrito. The service here is excellent.
Halfway through my meal, Gross departs. As the only one now eating in the restaurant, I can't help but think that only a Tibetan monk would enjoy modestly priced Mexican in such seclusion.
When Rhodes brings my check, I ask, "Does it seem as strange in here to you as it does to me?"
Not anymore, Rhodes says. He is now accustomed to it. But Rhodes says the pre- and post-outbreak atmosphere at the restaurant couldn't be any more different.
"Between noon and 1:30, we'd be filled to capacity pretty much every day," he says wistfully. "Now it's like -- this."
Rhodes hopes business picks up soon.
"It's kind of boring here right now," he says. "And I'm not making a lot in tips."
I take the hint and tip well. I figure it could be a while until the poor guy gets his next one.
