Over the past 145 years the Burke Museum has amassed millions of things—more than 15 million of them!
Like most museums, the Burke displays only a tiny portion of its collections in galleries. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, rows and rows of shelves hold an astounding variety of objects related to natural history and human culture—baskets and beetles, hummingbirds and hammerhead sharks, masks and mammoths. Read the story behind Seattle's first coffee mug!
It makes you wonder: Why do museums have all these things? Where did they come from? What are they used for?
This remarkable exhibit reveals the surprising stories, complex questions, and awe-inspiring answers hidden inside objects. See a new side of the Burke, and uncover some of the most fascinating, intriguing, and rare objects in its collection. Join scientists making daily discoveries in the exhibit, and learn how collections show us new things about the world around us every day. You might even learn something new about yourself. Imagine that!
Update on the Tusk: The mammoth tusk recently found in South Lake Union will be on display in the Imagine That exhibit in its plaster jacket. Burke scientists will continue to monitor the tusk—you may even see them doing it while you're in the gallery!—and may need to remove it from the galleries if it is not drying out properly. If that happens, we will post any updates here.

Would you prefer to earn $100,000 a year and live in a community where everyone else earns $75,000 a year or to earn $150,000 a year and live in a community where everyone else earns $200,000 a year? More concisely, is your own thermometer of your own well being a function of your absolute level of income or relative income compared to your peer group?
The public policy implications of these questions are obvious. If we are jealous "relativists" then a growing macro economy in which income inequality is rising could lower aggregate well-being! When I taught intro economics at Columbia University, I used to crack a bad joke about relativity. "During war time, if your house is ½ destroyed by bombs while your neighbors' homes are destroyed are you going to tell me that you are now happier?" Looking back, I should have done a better job making the case for and against the "relativity" hypothesis. When I was a graduate student at the University of Chicago, the consumers we studied were not envious. They gained utility solely from their own consumption and only cared about their own household's expected present value of earnings.
Recently, empiricists have been exploring the "relativity hypothesis". I post this as part of my Urban Economics blog because most peer groups are defined spatially by one's residential community. Consider Erzo Luttmer's recent paper "Neighbors as Negatives".
"This paper investigates whether individuals feel worse off when others around them earn more. In other words, do people care about relative position and does lagging behind the Joneses' diminish well-being? To answer this question, I match individual-level panel data containing a number of indicators of well-being to information about local average earnings. I find that, controlling for an individual's own income, higher earnings of neighbors are associated with lower levels of self-reported happiness. The data's panel nature and rich set of measures of well-being and behavior indicate that this association is not driven by selection or by changes in the way people define happiness. There is suggestive evidence that the negative effect of increases in neighbors' earnings on own well-being is most likely caused by interpersonal preferences people having utility functions that depend on relative consumption in addition to absolute consumption."
A second example of this type of empirical work was published in the 8/16/2005 Science Section of the New York Times in Eric Nagourney's Vital Signs section. He cites some sociologists (Firebaugh and Tach) who use the General Social Survey. This survey asks 16000 people ages 20 to 64; "are you happy?" Taking people's answers seriously, these researchers run a regression to estimate a happiness production function. Controlling for a person's age, physical health, education and other factors, if people who are the same age as the respondent are richer, then the person is predicted to be less happy. This study strikes me as a little bit weird that the "peer group" is everyone your age. This is quite a different peer group then looking at the set of people who live within 2 miles of your house. I'm 39 years old and I'm trained in labor economics but I only have a vague guess concerning what is the average income of other 39 year olds throughout the United States. If I don't know their average income, can this really affect my happiness?
Luttmer's empirical design (presented above) strikes me as a much beter way to test the relativity hypothesis than what Firebaugh and Tach have cooked up. Unlike these sociologists, he is able to exploit spatial differences in peer groups.
But, the fundamental weakness in this literature is addressing heterogeneity. Put simply, people differ with respect to their envy. If Matt is very envious person and he knows this, he should "pick his pond" and migrate to an area where he is above average. If Matt is not an envious person, he can be the poorest person on his block and this doesn't bug him. The advantage of being the poorest person on your block is that your neighbors are paying more in property taxes and you have access to the same local public services such as public schools as they do.
As an empiricist, I would propose the following hedonic real estate pricing test. Do smaller homes in rich communities sell for a lower price than the same home if it is located in a middle class community. If "relativity" is really true for most people, then the small home should sell for a discount in the rich community. I doubt the data will support his proposition.
In joint research with Pat Bajari of University of Michigan we have been studying the demand for single detached homes in Los Angeles County over the years 2000 to 2003. I took our whole sample of 165,000 homes and kept only the small homes. These are homes whose interior square footage is less than the 25th percentile of the entire distribution. I then ran a regression for 39,957 homes of the log(sales price of the home) as a function of the home's age, interior square feet, exterior square feet, population density in the home's census tract, average commute time and distance to the Central Business District. Controlling for all of these variables, I find that an extra $10,000 in median household income on the census block where the home is located raises the price of the small home by 12.7%. This is quite suggestive evidence against the "relativity" hypothesis. Again, small homes have a higher equilibrium price when they are in richer communities. Since the people who buy the small homes are likely to be poorer then their neighbors, my finding beats on the "relativity" hypothesis.
I am hopeful that economists will continue to study how emotions affect our behavior. I have written one paper on shame. A recent version is posted at: http://web.mit.edu/costa/www/papers.html

Do the Ibex Hooded Indie Baselayers ever go on sale? I've been looking for a month and all have been coming up the same price. $99.95. Thanks for the feedback. Dan
Ibex.com seems to have them on sale once or twice a year for ~$60, so you could wait for that. Search "ibex hooded indie site:backpackinglight.com" in google to see when they've shown up on gear deals before.Also, REI just had them on clearance for ~$50 about a month ago. Maybe check your local store to see if they still have some? Or put a WTB ad up in gear swap in case someone is having second thoughts?Sorry for no direct answers, but maybe that will get you closer :)
I picked one up at the REI clearance, and have been incredibly pleased with it. Definitely my new favorite layer for fall-winter-spring. I've got some other Ibex stuff that is okay but not all the way to awesome. THIS is awesome. Hood is great, long arms with thumb holes are great, and incredibly comfortable, even right next to the skin.Wool is brutally expensive, but if any piece of wool is worth it, this is it.My suggestion, since REI carries them, is to at least hold out for an REI 20% off coupon, or I think they'll be giving out some kind of $X off of $X (don't remember the exact numbers) coupons this month to a bunch of members... either one should get you down to $80 or so, and I'd say this piece is actually worth it.
I'm wanting one of these to go with a Houdini or Verto, Mont Bell Inner jacket or Parka and a lightweight rain shell. Should get me through 3 seasons.How is the fit compared to other garments? I'm between a L and XL on most items. Probably go with a large. I'm 5'-11 and 200 lbs. Not exactly fit these days.Need to start on the inside and work my way out so everything fits correctly.I'll continue my search and wait for sales!Dan
Dan,I'm using the Ibex hoodie, Montbell UL down jacket (6.9oz) and a Montane Superfly eVent jacket (14.7oz) as a layering system, using a Black Rock Gear down beanie as extra warmth for the head -- prefer the hat to a parka, myself -- seems to keep the heat where I need it most, and the hoody and jacket hood can keep out wind and hold in extra warmth, if needed.I know the jacket is a lot heavier than what most people here are rockin', but my experience is that eVent just works better than other breathable/waterproof layers, and the recent BPL tests seem to support my experience. The extra weight is worth it to me, and the price of a different eVent shell is prohibitive for the few ounces it would save.I've been happy with a system very similar to what you are looking at. Not the lightest possible option, but incredibly comfortable and functional in a wide variety of weather conditions and temperatures.As for sizing, I'm 5'10, 165#, and the medium fits perfectly, so sizing seems spot on. Hope that helps.
Dan, I was able to get a Ibex hoodie from REI's outlet site (thanks to Konrad Chen for posting that one!) and I'm also 5'10", 165# with the medium fit being perfect for me. I have a similar system to Tim's layering, though I often start with a s/s wool t-shirt as a base, the Ibex hoodie as a midlayer, then a windshirt. This is good for me when moving, probably into the low 40s. I have the MB UL Down parka and finally also have either a Driducks jacket or a NF Triumph Anorak. I could leave the s/s top or the rain shell at home depending on the conditions and length of trip.The Ibex hoodie is a great piece if/when you can find one.

Google gets patent for software that can intelligently identify any object on the planet

Google has received a patent for a technology that could revolutionise searching – as well as giving the search engine unprecedented knowledge about the world.
Humans have an innate ability, thanks to our eyes and brain, to look at any object – from a cat to a lamp to a river-bank – and recognise it and catalogue it.
This is far less easy for computers to do – but Google may be about to change that, thanks to its patent for 'automatic large scale video object recognition'.

Our Magnetometers will determine your orientation in Space
Fast and accurate attitude determination is what ZARM Technik magnetometers have been designed for. They are available with two sensor principles. The high reliable fluxgate magnetometers are made for long term missions with high radiation loads. The AMR based devices are small and lightweight, escpecially designed for micro-satellites.
Fluxgate Magnetometer
The HiRel-Magnetometer uses the fluxgate-technology to measure the external magnetic field. Ringcore-sensors with orthogonal pickup-coils, one for each axis, deliver the information for attitude determination. The magnetometer includes the sensors and the electronics into one package. It was developed with the goal to combine low power consumption, low weight and small size with a high reliability for Space applications.
A critical magnetometer property is the dependence between temperature and output-voltage. High qualitative components with very low temperature coefficients and the use of feedback circuits make it possible to get a very low temperature interference. A special package design for the sensors guarantees an excellent axial alignment. Special materials are used for the ringcore-sensors leading to very low noise in the output-signals.
AMR Magnetometer
The AMR Magnetometer is a microcontroller based magnetometer with a digital output and is therefore very easy to use. An integrated three axis sensor based on the Anisotropic-Magnetoresistive (AMR) principle measures the external magnetic field in three directions. A precision A/D-converter converts the analog sensor output voltage into a digital value for the microcontroller. The output of the magnetometer is a digital serial data stream. The standard communication interface is RS422. Other communication interfaces are optionally available.

Oh man. I could go ape s**t with this thread......
I get the first part, but what does "No. 15" mean?
Edited by T.L. on 03/24/2012 23:52:20 MDT.
Yes. 15
Last year, I was teaching high school math to sixth graders in Alaska. This year I'm coaching middle-school students in math and they're going to State Finals, and one of them to Nationals next week.In July, I was teaching Chinese middle-school and high-school students in a "small provincial town" of 400,000 people. They go to high school for 48 weeks a year. They opted to spend half their yearly vacation listening to a gringo (me) talk about science, games, and English. They start school at 6:30 am and go till 10 pm, six days a week.Show me an American student who spent 93 hours a week for 4 years and didn't get the Ivy education and dream job they wanted and you'll surprise me. Whine about the Chinese "taking our jobs" and I'll reply that we (as individuals) didn't want those jobs nearly as much.Can we compete? Absolutely.Do we compete? Increasingly, no. Our choice.If you want to earn $1/day, move to Africa.If you want to earn $10/day move to China.If you want to earn $100/day and complain about it, stay where you are.If you want to earn $2000/day and be fat and happy, get your MD, JD, or MBA.It's late. I'm being blunt. I should go to bed.Really, my message (and philosphy) is "choices". We have choices. They have choices. We have more choices than they do and always have. That might not always be true. Don't be surprised, be prepared. Being prepared = being skilled and educated.
So we buy apparel and bags from China -- but we sell them Boeing aircraft. Would you rather have it the other way around?America's problem isn't imports. America's problem is our relentless borrowing and consumption. That's the really sad part.

Leave poor #15 alone she in line for a promotion to #6 . I use to know # 9 and #22 and # 3 that live in the united states but they retried or had their jobs out sourced . They passed their number on to their foreign inspector friends. Now they work at the local Walmart who gave them jobs after forcing their jobs to be out sourced.. They now go by their Christian name of John,Mary, Larry and other brothers all named Daryl. In a interview on 60 minutes inspector #1 is seeking mental health help because he had always been #1 in he is just known as Bubba now. Bubba's wife left him and moved to china and found the new #1 and they just had their #1 son . {watch a charlie chan movie}Terry
"I use to know # 9 and #22 and # 3 that live in the united states but they retried or had their jobs out sourced ."Hopefully, their kids are studying hard in school -- so they will create entirely new industries when they grow up -- like how we baby boomers created the semiconductor industry. If not, bye bye good living... and hello Argentina.

Thanksgiving: What are you thankful for?
"We must find time to stop and thank the people who make a difference in our lives." ― John F. Kennedy
How do your family and friends make a difference in your life? What do they do to make you feel special and loved?
Every year, when Thanksgving comes around, we think about what we are grateful for. We take time to remember the blessings that we take for granted in our daily lives. It's not always easy to translate what we feel into words.
Family and friends are often at the top of our lists. They are our treasured people. Our rocks. They stand by us through thick and thin, giving us the gift of unconditional love.
It is heartwarming to hear how much you are appreciated and valued by family and friends.
Thanksgiving is also a nice time to get together with the family, and share in your favorite Thanksgiving traditions. We recently wrote about our favorite traditions and the stories behind them.
This year, as the holidays approach, and you spend time with your nearest and dearest, take the opportunity to tell your loved ones how you feel about them, and what you are grateful for.
What are you thankful for this Thanksgiving? Let us know below.
Thanksgiving Traditions: Old and new
Thanksgiving is almost here and it's time for family, food and football!
For decades, Americans have been celebrating Thanksgiving with its fun traditions, from watching the Macy's Day Parade to eating turkey.
Here are some of our favorite traditions and the stories behind them: Continue reading "Thanksgiving Traditions: Old and new" »
Thanksgiving Competition: And the winner is…
Last week, we asked you to share your favorite Thanksgiving memories with us.
We received many touching stories about how you remember celebrating Thanksgiving in the past.
Congratulations to Randy De La O, winner of a new Kindle!
We loved what you wrote about your favorite Thanksgiving memory :
Years ago, sometime in the mid-late 1960s. My mother came home from grocery shopping. She had bought all the food needed for our Thanksgiving dinner which would be coming up in a few days. She mentioned to my father that she had bought a turkey, but it was too big for her to carry. It was paid for and they were holding it for her. It just needed to be picked up. My father agreed to go and off he went to pick up the turkey.
He pulled up into the Von's Market, in Pico Rivera, on the corner of Passons Blvd. and Washington Blvd. (in Los Angeles, California) went back to the meat section and told the guy that he was here to pick up the turkey that his wife had bought.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving is a time when many families come from near and far to celebrate together, a time for reminiscing and sharing stories.
It's also a great opportunity to make family history discoveries. Ask your relatives about their lives, and the lives of their parents. Asking about past family Thanksgiving celebrations can be an enjoyable conversation for all the family where you can learn how your ancestors celebrated and discover other unknown information.
Try and use the time when the family is all together to share with them what you've discovered about your collective family history. Who knows, perhaps you'll get a piece of information that will help you break down a brick wall in your research.

MyHeritage is also preparing holiday-related posts - and some surprises - so stay tuned during November.
A national holiday, Thanksgiving is observed in the United States - and worldwide wherever North American expats reside - on the fourth Thursday of November.
Every immigrant group to the US has also adopted the special day, which crosses all ethnic and religious lines.

Thanksgiving Day's centerpiece is the lovingly-prepared feast on our tables, which we share with family and friends. People begin to plan holiday menus very early. Therefore, we invite the MyHeritage community to participate in our poll below:

Thanksgiving , a Timeless Treat
East Coast Turkey
Thanksgiving is a day thick with plenty. The penultimate November Thursday marries history, tradition, and myth in commemorative indulgence. Its goals are less commercial and Puritan-stiff than many a holiday, and it thumps with seasonal and human spirit.
The history of the day of thanks trickles down from early American settlers. It was to be a day of rest from battle with Native Americans, and the gruesome winter, which took the lives of nearly half of the early pilgrims. The first account of Thanksgiving dates to 1623, chronicled in Eliot's New-England History, and tells of Governor Bradford who "sent out a company for game [turkey which was of plenty in the are]...and abundant materials for a feast...and they feasted Massasoit and ninety of his Indians, and they thanked God for the good and the good things in it. So they kept their first Thanksgiving."

Plastic Food Prep Gloves: neither Sanitary nor Necessary.
When did we equate plastic with health?
First of all, plastic is forever. It breaks down, but never decomposes, and it's easily consumed by animals, and fish, which we love to consume. It's linked to cancer. And there's an island of it the size of a couple Texases in the middle of the Pacific. Plastic? It's bad. We should only use it when we have no other choice.
Now, many restaurants and kitchens have no choice: they're required by law to wear plastic gloves. What got me thinking about these silly, pointless accoutrements of modern government-encouraged OCD? After all, aren't germs actually good for us—they help build up our natural immune systems? Don't we all know to wash our hands, particularly during cold season? And aren't plastic-glove wearing cooks touching lots of unsanitary things with those plastic gloves—which have germ-breeding wrinkles in 'em, anyways?
Finally, isn't it odd that we're worried about germs, but not about eating "conventional," untested genetically-modified food sprayed with pesticides (fancy word for poison)? It seems, on the one hand, that we're uptight about germs…and on the other hand, cavalier about disease and cancer.
What got me thinking about this hypocritical, pointless plastic glove virus, that's spreading nationally? Jamie Oliver, whose offhand comment during one of his top-rated Food Revolution shows: "they're dirtier than your hands" rang my brain like a bell.
Excerpt from one of hundreds of articles criticizing plastic gloves:
…[Since a] plastic glove has tiny wrinkles, it acts as storage area for contamination and pathogens.
Many states have passed laws that require food handlers to wear gloves, and requiring food handlers to wear gloves offers a false sense of security to consumers because the sight of gloves makes the food preparation process look clean and sanitary when it actually isn't. Many people don't notice that the person making their food is also touching contaminated objects and surfaces while wearing the same pair of gloves.
Where does this leave us regarding sanitation of our restaurant food? A report by the New Zealand Food Safety Authority suggests that proper hand washing is much more hygienic than wearing gloves. The report states that wearing plastic gloves tempts food handlers to wash their hands less frequently because they can't feel when something gets on their hands. The report also advocates that laws and restaurants not require food handlers to wear gloves, and that most food can be touched with bare hands provided the food handler has thoroughly washed and dried his or her hands immediately prior to handling the food.
Perhaps the answer lies in the use of other "barrier" methods such as forks, spoons, scoops, and tongs. Each time a food handler that is wearing gloves touches a surface besides food, those gloves are contaminated whereas other barriers such as utensils don't touch other contaminated surfaces as often…read the rest here.
What do you all think? I know some gloves are latex, but like latex condoms, doubt that they're actually disposable or compostable.

Searching for this for some time now – i guess luck is more advanced than search engines
I would wear gloves when handling food for two reasons:
1) Keeping your hands in damp food (lettuce, tomatoes, etc.) all day will eventually damage them and your nails.
2) The pesticides you would be absorbing through contact with non-organic food would add up to problems. Even cashiers who handle receipts have very elevated levels of BPA in their blood vs. the general public.
Bonus reason why would want the person preparing my food to wear gloves… they likely DIDN'T wash their hands well enough after exiting the washing and they certainly weren't wearing their gloves to use the can.
I definately want the person buttering my bagel or making my sandwich to wear gloves. I feel like if they're handling cash, that has been proven to have everything on it from drugs to botchilism to human feces, I dont want them making my food with those hands. Also, I dont know these people. They could be in the habit of touching their face, or sneezing, or have herpes and bite their nails. In a perfect world, we would all be perfectly hygenic, but in reality, most people are pretty nasty and have subpar hygene. They dont think anything is wrong with biting their nails and then using those same fingers to pick up a totmato and put it on my sandwich. It's disgusting. I understand the point made with cross contaminating the gloves, so I always ask for a new pair. I also understand the environmental effects, but if you have a problem with plastic gloves, do you also have an issue with disposable tampons or feminine pads which are also used with plastic. Should we find a way to re-use pads so as to not contribute to landfills? Plastic gloves should be absolutely required and new ones should be used if the food preparer touches anything other than food (eg – money).
Your finishing thought was my first – that many wear the gloves, but touch unsanitary things anyway. In this case, wearing gloves or not wearing gloves will not solve the issue of an unsanitary worker, contributing to an unsanitary restaurant. Some places are just horrible and disgusting, and gloves won't solve that problem. We just need to be more particular about where we choose to eat.
I'd prefer having the food handler with no gloves. Many European countries do not use gloves, and they are just fine. It should be required to wash one's hands after handling money, or using some type of anti-bacterial liquid. Many people don't change their gloves either….. ewww.
Is there something wrong with the following?
Assuming there are about 60 mill people in the US workforce and about 1/3 is in either the food industry, the security industry (airports, police), or the health care industry, that could mean that 20 mill people would use plastic gloves daily. I would doubt its only one, an average of about 10 may not be overstating it. That would make 200 millions per day and 200 billions in three years.
Assuming the same in Europe, the same in Asia, and the same in the rest of the world, makes 600 bill worldwide in three years. Do we want that?
I worked in a restaurant where I disposed of around 20 pairs of gloves per shift. I am so relieved to be out of that waste hole. It's sad to think of how much waste (not biodegradable) that is accumulated from one restaurant, let alone the thousands of thousands elsewhere. I now work at an organic food restaurant. No gloves, minimal waste, healthy hygiene. Washing hands is definitely important. Being mindful and knowing when to wash your hands is absolutely important. It is the consumer's responsibility to make wise choices- what and where you eat.

How to Avoid Food Poisoning
There had been a lot of food recalls over the past months and it's mostly because these "tainted" food items can cause food poisoning or some other food-borne illnesses. Before you eat something, do you stop to think if you're eating something that's clean and safe?
Food poisoning is very common but is mostly taken for granted until it actually happens. One thing you should know, food poisoning can be fatal, and the less serious complications include vomiting and diarrhea. These symptoms can lead to hospitalization. Learn more about food poisoning so you can protect your family.
Food poisoning can be caused by several reasons. From food production, manufacturing, transportation, to preparation, food requires ultra-care so it will not endanger your health.
Food poisoning happens when food becomes contaminated. Bacteria, spores, and other micro-organisms, as you know, is everywhere and are always at the ready to infect your food. Food that's grown with the aid of chemicals and fertilizers could poison you if not washed properly.
Where do you buy your food? Consider the place where you get the food you serve to your family. Of course prices will always be a major factor, but food should first be safe, then affordable.
When shopping, always check the expiration dates of the items before you buy them. You should also separate the meat from the poultry and make sure fresh meat does not come in contact with any dirty surface. Store foods properly immediately when you get home.
Wash your hands first before preparing your meals. It is also important that you keep your potholders and dish cloths super clean and dry because you use them in close contact to your food.
Cook and reheat foods thoroughly. Raw and half-cooked foods could poison you. Red meat, poultry and eggs should be cooked thoroughly.
Keep your foods where pests can't contaminate them. Make sure you store your foods in secured containers and cupboards. Make sure that your refrigerator is set in optimum temperatures. Avoid placing eggs in the door tray, the drop in temperature every time you open the door can lead to egg spoilage. Keep meats inside the freezer. Defrost them by placing them on a lower shelf. It takes time but would avoid sudden bacterial growth.
Don't just eat anywhere. Be very careful of the food you eat.

Mike Balado and Kimani Young Join Pitino's Staff at Minnesota
April 10, 2013
University of Minnesota head men's basketball coach Richard Pitino today announced the first members of his staff, assistant coaches Mike Balado and Kimani Young.
"I am excited about the additions of coach Balado and coach Young to our staff at the University of Minnesota," said Pitino. "Both of these guys played a huge part in our turnaround at Florida International. They are well respected within the coaching community as terrific recruiters and leaders of student-athletes."
Mike Balado Bio:
Prior to his time in South Florida, Balado spent three seasons at High Point University as an assistant coach. His main role at High Point was as the program's recruiting coordinator and played a key role in recruiting the program's first two classes under head coach Scott Cherry. That class helped HPU to 17 wins overall this season, including 12 conference victories and the program's first Big South Conference's North Division title since moving to NCAA Division I prior to the 1999-2000 season.
Balado joined the HPU staff after spending the 2008-09 season on the University of Miami basketball staff in player development as a graduate assistant. That year the Hurricanes compiled a 19-13 record and a trip to the National Invitation Tournament.
Prior to coaching at Miami, Balado spent three years on the Florida Atlantic University basketball staff. In Balado's first season at FAU in 2005-06, the team posted its second-consecutive winning season, the first time since the early 1990s that the Owls had consecutive winning seasons. In 2006-07, the Owls won 10 Sun Belt Conference games, the third-most for a first-year Sun Belt member. The team also set a program scoring record, averaging 74.9 points per game. The Owls went 15-18 and 8-10 in Sun Belt Conference play in 2007-08.
Balado spent two seasons at Miami Dade College before taking the post at FAU. While at Miami Dade, he helped lead the Sharks to back-to-back winning seasons, including a program-best 27-5 mark, en route to the conference championship. He recruited four of MDC's 2004-05 All-Conference selections, including the Player of the Year.
Balado began his collegiate coaching career at Augusta (Ga.) State University where he served as a graduate assistant from 1998-2000.
Balado played collegiately for two seasons at St. Thomas University in Miami, where he was a two-year starter and team captain, and two seasons at Warner Southern College. He earned a bachelor's degree in psychology in 1998 from St. Thomas and added a master's of education in exercise and sport science from Augusta State in 2000.
Balado and his wife Alicia are the proud parents of twins, Aiden and Adalina.
Kimani Young Bio:
Young arrived at FIU after two stints (2006-08 & 2009-12) at New Heights Youth, Inc. in New York City as the program's athletic director. While at New Heights, Young managed all aspects of the basketball program, including the athletic budget, and built relationships within the basketball community.
In between stints at New Heights, Young spent one season at St. John's University as the program's head team manager and video coordinator. He coordinated film exchange with opponents and oversaw the taping of all games and practices for the 2008-09 season. Young was also heavily involved in coordinating the team's community service activities in the New York City area.
Working with youth is a passion for Young. He has served as the center director for the Police Athletic League of NYC at the Wynn Center (2005-06), assistant center director for the Police Athletic League at Miccio Center (2001-05), a therapeutic recreation assistant at Jewish Board of Family Children Services Kaplan House (1999-2000 and 2001-06) and the program director at Aim High Foundation/S. Carter AAU program in Brooklyn (1998-2000 and 2001-06).
A graduate of Texas-El Paso in 1998 with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice, Young starred on the hardwood for UTEP and legendary coach Don Haskins from 1993-97. He finished his tenure with the Miners as one of only 22 all-time players to reach the 1,000-career point plateau. Young enrolled at UTEP after starring as an all-city performer for Forest Hills High School in Queens, earning honorable mention McDonald's All-America honors as a senior in 1992.

Other People's Pantries #20
From Stevi (Good to Be Home), in Naples, Florida:
When we renovated and remodeled our early '70s ranch this past Fall, we included a butler's pantry off the small galley kitchen.
It is a wonderful storage area where I can keep my coffee maker and cups, etc. on the counter. There is a lot of storage above in 9 "cubby" cubes that hold cook books, the covered toaster, the bill basket, etc. On the opposite wall is a large floor-to-ceiling cabinet for dry goods and canned goods. I found the stand-alone "tower" shown in the corner at a local outlet store and it provides even more storage for paper goods. We have so much less clutter now in the kitchen! (Read more here.)
On Saturdays, we peek into Other People's Pantries.
Come on -- show us your pantry.

LSAT Train to Clarksville
Huh? Classroom contribution and legal abilities judged by the LSAT? Over the past 2 and a half years I've always said that I knew I'd come to Boalt after seeing a copy of Boalt Briefs in Booth on admit day. The fact that we had an energic new dean coming in, a top 5 reputation, etc., were all factors as well. But again, it was the sense of humor of the students, and their really diverse backgrounds. During admit day, I did not meet a single person who had worked at a law firm. Nothing against that, I just appreciate the people who didn't go into freshman year of undergrad thinking they were God's gift to the legal system and joined every single pre-law society on campus. Spare me. Boalt did!!!

Finally we know, legally speaking, why the US thinks it's just fine and dandy to collect metadata relating to whom we call, who calls us, how long we talk, and maybe even where we're talking from.
The rationale will likely sound familiar to those who've been following ongoing news concerning National Security Agency (NSA) surveillance.
It boils down to a landmark case from 1976 - Smith v. Maryland - in which the Supreme Court ruled that calling a telephone number necessarily involves disclosing the number to a third party - i.e., the phone company.
Because the number was disclosed during the phone call, the number's not private, the Supreme Court held, and the government can have easy access to the call records.
This is the origin of the "third-party doctrine". The logic has, in the case of the NSA arranging metadata downloads from Verizon et al., been ported over to the idea of demanding massive amounts of phone metadata.
The rationale has been secret until now.
It was unveiled for the first time on Tuesday and published on the website for the nation's most secret court, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), as reported by Ars Technica's Cyrus Farivar.
As Farivar writes, the 46-page opinion [PDF], authored by Judge Claire Eagan, was written on 29 August but not published until this week.
The unveiling of the legal rationale comes after FISC Judge Reggie Walton ordered the Government to conduct a declassification review of such decisions and related orders in the wake of Edward Snowden having leaked documents and thereby set in motion a firestorm over the National Security Agency's (NSA's) extensive surveillance program.
In her opinion, Justice Eagan explains why the Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution, which prohibits unreasonable searches, doesn't pertain in the case of the metadata sharing program:
The telephone user, having conveyed this information to a telephone company that retains the information in the ordinary course of business, assumes the risk that the company will provide that information to the government. Thus, the Supreme Court conclude that a person does not have a legitimate expectation of privacy in telephone numbers dialed, and there, when the government obtained that dialing information, it "was not a 'search'", and no warrant was required.
. . .
Put another way, where one individual does not have a Fourth Amendment interest, grouping together a large number of similarly situated individuals cannot result in a Fourth Amendment interest springing into existence ex nihilo. [Ed. a Latin phrase meaning "out of nothing".]
In sum, because the Application at issue here concerns only the production of call detail records, or "telephony metadata" belonging to a telephone company, and not the contents of communications, Smith v. Maryland compels the conclusion that there is no Fourth Amendment impediment to the collection. Furthermore, for the reasons stated in [REDACTED] and discussed above, this Court finds that the volume of records being acquired does not alter this conclusion. Indeed, there is no legal basis for this Court to find otherwise.
Farivar's article is well worth the read, particularly given his analysis of whether the third-party doctrine on which Eagan bases her opinion might actually be starting to wobble.
As he explains, no telecomms company has to date challenged the legality of a FISC order.
Were Verizon, for one, to actually do so, it could well be bolstered by a January 2012 Supreme Court decision in the US v. Jones case, wherein the court ruled that law enforcement lacked the right to warrantlessly place a GPS tracking device on a suspect's vehicle.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote in that case that it well might be time to review the third-party doctrine:
...It may be necessary to reconsider the premise that an individual has no reasonable expectation of privacy in information voluntarily disclosed to third parties.
Is change in the air? Is the climate ripe for a shift in legal thinking on issues of the legality of NSA surveillance?

unable to change the log retention settings
I have SEP12 runing and the clients do not seem to be able to change the log retention setting. The policy is configured with the default value, 30 days and the setting is not locked. When I change the settings on the client side, it appeared to be changed. However, it will revert back to 30 days once the computer is restarted. Any idea what might trigger this problem.
Comments 10 Comments • Jump to latest comment
This setting has a pad lock beside it. That means user is able to adjust the settings locally if it is unlocked, isn't it that's how it works? If the pad lock is in lock position, this option is grayed out in the local client. When it is unlocked, it appeared to be changable until the machine is restarted.
There is no way to lock this down from the SEPM or even the client for that matter.
Regardless of what you change it to on the client, it will always go back to what's set in the SEPM.
Please click the "Mark as solution" link at bottom left on the post that best answers your question. This will benefit admins looking for a solution to the same problem.

Travellers Beach Resortの他サイトでの評価
Good value for money and friendly and informative staff I came and saw that the place was looking a bit tired but upon staying longer I got to like it as being 20 or so years old they have kept the culture going quite well. Met the new manager and she seemed to know how to get this place forward with more better choices for the guests. She has the guests interest first. The staff are definitely friendly and very informative. Food was great with reasonablly good value for the excellent quality. The bar has good range of drinks and they mix great cocktails. Probably the best location on that stretch of the beach. Had a wonderful and no hassle stay, would reccommend to anyone. — Susanna, Austria (2007-08-08)

RSF (from The Gym)
So I finally got a chance to get to the gym today (Wednesday). I had been planning on a Monday debut...but things didn't work out the way I had planned (and that is a story for another day...or perhaps never, lol--it just depends on how I feel I guess)....
Anyway...I went to the RSF and it was lots of fun (for the most part)! I didn't know what to expect so I just went with open arms so to speak (I was carrying a bag with my clothes in it) . Getting in was easy and kind of cool. I just "swiped" my Berkeley ID card in front of a bar code reader and I was let in.
Toward the back is where the lockers are at. You get a complimentary lock (which I couldn't open at first, lol) for the day or however long you stay (The lock has to be off by some certain time--whenever they close I presume).
Anyway, I got all my stuff together and headed to the main area of the RSF. The "lobby" area is pretty cool with computers and a little convenience store and stuff. I spent time at the cardio area where there were lots of treadmills and ellipticals. So I ran a little bit and then went to the weight room. The machines in the cardio area were pretty good...though when I was trying to increase the speed/pace of my run, toward the end of my workout, I hit the damn stop button...so yea that totally killed the momentum. No worries. I was done a couple of minutes later and decided to check out the weight room (s).
I went on a cloudy/foggy day so I'm not sure how the weight rooms usually look, but they were a little dark for my taste. The equipment was pretty good; they had a good selection of stuff--free weights, machines, etc. There is an adjoining weight room right next door, but a couple of minutes before I went in a class pilled in to one of them.
Then there was the locker room, post-workout. This brought back many high school memories. It totally reminded me of being in the locker rooms for PE in high school (except for the naked guys, lol--not too many did that in high school). The area was spacious and the facilities were good. Then came time to take a shower. I'd never been in a 'communal' shower but I was sweaty and just went for it. There weren't many people but there was this one guy who was pretty (ugly) fat. I'll spare you the details as I try to rid my mind of them as well.
I was on a time constraint so didn't have a chance to check everything out. It was real nice overall, especially for $10! Ok...bye :-) lol

- How to Read a Study Record
While the gold standard of treatment in invasive bladder cancer is surgical removal of the bladder, it is well accepted that a reasonable alternative is an organ preserving approach. Bladder preservation can be achieved in patients with radiotherapy alone or together with concurrent chemotherapy. This clinical trial will assess the potential of intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) delivered using helical tomotherapy to reduce radiation-induced gastrointestinal toxicity and increase the accuracy of bladder cancer irradiation.

Radiation: Helical tomotherapy IMRT
Patients opting for bladder conservation in Ottawa are currently treated using intra-arterial cisplatin and concurrent radiotherapy using 3D-Conformal radiotherapy. It has been recently reported that while combination chemotherapy with local therapy (surgery or radiation) does modestly increase survival, greater toxicity results. As a precursor to the integration of gemcitabine in the standard chemotherapy regimen at our centre, the current clinical trial is designed to determine if a novel approach to the delivery of intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), namely Helical Tomotherapy, will decrease the toxicity of standard chemoradiation. Chemoradiation will be administered as follows: 3 courses Intra-Arterial Cisplatin 90mg/m2 every 3 weeks and radical radiation delivered as IMRT for a total dose of 60 Gy in 30 daily fractions of 2 Gy per day M-F starting day 15.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- A pathological diagnosis of pure or predominantly transitional cell bladder carcinoma
- Adequate Hematology and biochemistry parameters
- Invasive or treatment refractory non-invasive transitional cell bladder carcinoma OR operable patients who prefer bladder preservation OR inoperable patients.

The Confederates strengthened the fortifications at Charleston throughout the summer while ships of the Union's Atlantic Blockading Squadron instituted a blockade. Although the vast majority of ships that tried to run the blockade succeeded, by the end of the first year of the war fewer ships slipped through because the Union had more and faster ships on station.
Charleston was symbolically important as the birthplace of secessionism and was economically valuable as a port city and the home to various industrial companies. Consequently, Union leaders were determined to capture the city. The first attempt came in June 1862 when 6,000 men landed on nearby James Island. Many citizens panicked and fled from the city as 500 Confederates successfully defended a line anchored by cannon while inflicting 700 casualties on the Federals.
Beauregard returned to Charleston as commander of the Department of South Carolina and Georgia in 1862. Utilizing slave labor, he improved the city defenses. These measures included increasing the number of guns guarding the city, digging trenches to discourage an attack by land, and mining the harbor. Frame mines, consisting of large artillery shells held in a wooden frame submerged in shallow water, were particularly effective and a deterrent to a Union naval assault. The Confederates also occasionally sortied against the Union blockaders offshore. The David, a 50-foot steam-powered torpedo boat that carried an explosive warhead on the end of a 10-foot spar, successfully attacked but did not badly damage the Union ironclad New Ironsides on October 5, 1863. The H. L. Hunley was the first submarine to sink a ship when it attacked the screw sloop Housatonic in Charleston Harbor on February 17, 1864.
In April 1863, the U.S. Navy mounted a major attack under Rear Admiral Samuel Du Pont when it tried to reduce the city's defenses by bombarding Fort Sumter with nine ironclads. The defenders damaged five of the warships, one of which subsequently sank, and forced the flotilla to retreat.
Later that year, the Union conceived of a joint operation to capture the city that called for Major General Quincy A. Gillmore to attack Fort Sumter and Morris Island's Fort Wagner while Union warships, now under Rear Admiral John A. Dahlgren, slipped into the harbor. Gillmore's 6,000 men attacked Fort Wagner but suffered heavy casualties. Unable to capture the stronghold, his men dug trenches and brought up large artillery pieces that could hit Charleston, some four miles away. Gillmore gave Beauregard an ultimatum to surrender both Morris Island and Fort Sumter. The Confederates refused, and the Union began firing on Fort Sumter but also on Charleston on August 22, 1864.
Charleston remained unconquered but beleaguered. The effective naval blockade and wartime economy created shortages and drove up prices. Many stores closed. Destruction resulting from a large fire that had incinerated hundreds of buildings during the previous winter further hampered daily life. City officials instituted martial law for a time, in part because of the disorderly conduct of soldiers. Morale deteriorated, and desertions among the 10,000 soldiers defending the city became common. The municipal government alleviated hardship by subsidizing purchases of staples, but thousands of the poor relied on private charitable efforts for survival, and the population generally suffered. The city was shelled, sometimes heavily, from August 1863 until the war's end in April 1865.
The threat of an assault on the city increased dramatically after U.S. major general William T. Sherman's Union troops captured Savannah, Georgia, in December 1864. Beauregard realized that Sherman's subsequent march toward Columbia would isolate Charleston and make its defenders' position untenable. On February 18, 1865, 10,000 Confederate soldiers withdrew from Charleston as elements of the U.S. Army's 52nd Pennsylvania Volunteers and 3rd Rhode Island Artillery under Lieutenant Colonel Augustus G. Bennett moved unopposed into the city to accept its surrender. Matthew J. Krogman
