One hundred and forty eight high school students from Boston, Chelsea and Revere are working for six weeks this summer as part of the MGH Summer Jobs Program, now in its 24th year.
MGH summer jobs brighten futures
WARM WELCOME: MGH Youth Programs Alumni are greeted by MGH president Peter L. Slavin, MD.
One hundred and forty eight high school students from Boston, Chelsea and Revere are working for six weeks this summer as part of the MGH Summer Jobs Program, now in its 24th year. The job program offers paid summer employment for youth, professional development training and support for hospital departments during employee summer vacations.
MGH employees from the Association of Multicultural Members of Partners (AMMP) are leading the student workshops. Volunteers include Waveney Cole, staff assistant in Patient Care Services; Jeremy Kinyua, patient financial aid representative; Karima Ricketts, office supervisor in Pathology; and Pamela Cazeau, senior patient liaison in Executive Health Services.
Working with Dianne Austin, AMMP chair and workplace diversity program manager, and Carlyene Prince-Erickson, director of MGH Training and Workforce Development, the MGH Center for Community Health Improvement is piloting "Working at MGH 101" for the entering ninth graders, the youngest cohort of students.
"The students will learn what it takes to be successful in the workplace – and more specifically what it means to be successful at the MGH," says Prince-Erickson.
Students in grades 10 through 12 will take part in communication and professional branding workshops, career panels and elective workshops around stress and relaxation, finances and preparing for life after high school.
The MGH also has hired 36 college students to participate in the Alumni Internship Program for 10 weeks this summer. Thirteen will work in hospital laboratories. Most of the participants previously worked at the hospital as high school students. The college interns also will participate in weekly professional development workshops and meet with the high school students to share their college experiences.
"The Summer Jobs for Youth and Alumni Internship programs would not be possible without the help of Bulfinch Temporary Services and the more than 40 hospital departments and health centers who host the students," says Tracey Benner, program coordinator for MGH Youth Programs. "We are grateful."
For more information on volunteering for MGH Youth programs, contact Margo McGovern at firstname.lastname@example.com or 617 724-3210.

Why we're skint
Posted: December 31, 2012|
WHERE does the taxpayer's money go in this country? The poor, the disabled, and pensioners face drastic cuts to benefits. Six million people are in fuel poverty, there are hundreds of food banks to feed us, while this government spend millions on war and foreign aid, e.g., 30 billion on crashed drones in Afghanistan, two billion more since 2007, not yet in service.
Over 400 members of our Forces have been killed, there's no information on numbers of those Forces personnel with life-changing injuries, and those are relying on charities to help them.
Then it's 50 billion a day to the EU just so when MPs are put out of office, they can stay on the gravy train like the Kinnocks did. Clegg has already stated he would like to be an MEP.
Add in a £65,000 salary for the new Police Commissioner, plus deputies, with the likelihood of a costly case for compensation if they dare sack a police chief constable.
And would you believe it, foreign aid for flatulent cows! It is like a child's fantasy book, and so the list goes on. No wonder this country is skint. It's time the government stopped all this waste and put its energy and our money here where it belongs. Roll on the election and UKIP

Bristol Rugby Confirm Irish And Montagu Departures
CEO Steve Gorvett confirms back rower and prop will leave
Bristol Rugby have today confirmed that No 8. Dan Montagu and prop Mark Irish have left the Club.
Montagu joined Bristol Rugby in the summer of 2009 and made 82 competitive appearances over three seasons, scoring eight tries.
Irish made 130 appearances since his first team debut in 2004, touching down three times.
Considering the future requirements of both the Club and the individuals, the parties have agreed that it was in their mutual interest to part company at this point in time.
The Club would like to thank Montagu and Irish for their service to Bristol and wish them well for the future.

Kata Tip: Look Before You Leap
Kata is very energetic. Once you get on a role, it can feel like an avalanche of focus and momentum.
In some ways, that's good. It means that the form has been learned and you no longer need to pause, scratch your head, and try desperately to remember what comes next. Unfortunately, that same momentum can carry you away and cause you to miss some of the finer details of kata execution.
One aspect that is frequently overlooked is…looking. Often, when individuals perform a kata, they become transfixed on what their hands and feet are doing. They snap blocks, fire punches, and move crisply. However, throughout the entire performance, their head stays laser straight, looking ahead at all times.
That sounds like a good thing, right? You would want to be looking in front of you if that's where the bad guy is. The problem occurs in the directional changes.
If we move our entire body without looking where we are going first, we've made a conceptual error. Although the kata dictates we go one way or the other, we need to visualize a real opponent in that place. As such, a real opponent can be unpredictable. We can't simply shift and block and magically know where the attack is coming from and at what distance. We have to LOOK first. Once we spot the enemy, we can then act in accordance with kata.
Often looking means turning our head slightly and shifting our eyes to the new opponent. We do this before committing to a stance or response, as is advisable in a real confrontation. Therefore, during training, we can take an entire pattern and make sure our eyes and head are moving before technique execution.
Of course, as with any good rule of thumb, there are exceptions.
Even though kata tends to turn in many directions, such movements do not necessarily mean a new opponent is arriving. Sometimes it can indicate that you, the defender, have trapped your opponent and are throwing them. Your body movement is then an ample method for creating that throw. If this is the case, you wouldn't need to be looking all around – you'll want to focus on the opponent at hand and execute the throw to maximum efficiency. After that, you can either strike the grounded opponent again or move on.
The important factor here is knowing which method of visualization you are employing. If you are keeping your eyes straight ahead during a turn, is it because you are maximizing a throw? If not, and you intend to address a new opponent, would you be wiser to take a peek first?
Reader Article #7: Chinese for Martial Artists (Understanding Names)
GUEST AUTHOR: Michael Heveran has spent the past ten years practicing a variety of martial arts, especially European sword arts such as Girard Thibault's rapier system and Achille Marozzo's sword and buckler. His unarmed background includes Wing Chun, American Kenpo, Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu, and Capoeira. Michael's writings can be found at Antitheses, a blog devoted to conceptual questions in martial arts.
Note: This article contains many Chinese characters. If your computer can't read Chinese characters, you will probably see empty squares or question marks instead. If you want to see the Chinese characters but can't, refer to Wikipedia's guide to installing East Asian language support.
In the world of martial arts, China is incredibly influential. Unfortunately, few martial artists have taken the time to learn anything about the Chinese language. A surprising number of misconceptions are due to simple ignorance of the language. I believe that every martial artist should be a cosmopolitan martial artist, knowledgeable about a wide range of arts from across the world. With that in mind, I've put together this primer on Chinese. A little bit of knowledge about the Chinese language will go a long way to set a foundation for learning more about Chinese martial arts.
Names matter. It's very hard to learn about a subject without a name you can assign attributes to. Unfortunately, there is a lot of confusion over the names of Chinese martial arts. This is very bad, because when naming systems are inconsistent, it can disrupt the way your mind stores information. Suppose I read a book about Xingyi. In my mind, I file that information under the "Xingyi" column. Then I see a video about Hsing-I, and I file that information under the "Hsing-I" column. But Xingyi and Hsing-I are exactly the same art, just written differently. If I didn't understand that fact, I might even waste my time trying to find differences between Xingyi and Hsing-I.
With that in mind, there are three things that you need to know in order to understand the names of Chinese martial arts.
1. The Western World Doesn't Know How to Romanize Chinese
Chinese uses a non-Roman writing system. There is no alphabet, so any attempt to represent Chinese sounds with our alphabet is necessarily an approximation. For example, the characters could be romanized as gong fu, kung fu, gung foo, and so on.
To avoid confusion, the Chinese government has adopted a standard Mandarin romanization system called Hanyu Pinyin, or "Pinyin" for short. Pinyin is a good system that is used almost universally by modern students of Mandarin, and is ubiquitous in mainland China.
However, the Western world doesn't seem to realize that there is a standard system. Westerners continue to use older romanization systems such as the Wade-Giles system, and that's when they use any system at all. That's why Chinese names are so inconsistently written in the West; the writers don't adhere to the standards.
2. Some Martial Arts Use Mandarin, Others Use Cantonese
Chinese is famously comprised of many dialects. Mandarin is the official dialect of China and by far the most useful. Both systems that I mentioned above – Hanyu Pinyin and Wade-Giles – are meant for Mandarin.
Cantonese is also important for martial artists. Cantonese is spoken primarily in southern China, especially Hong Kong and Macau. Most of us know about Cantonese because it is over-represented in the West, although it may only be the 3rd or 4th most commonly spoken dialect in China.
Because Cantonese is not the national language of any country, there is no standard way of romanizing it. Two common romanization systems are Yale and Jyutping, but there are several other systems in common use.
Cantonese is commonly used for southern Chinese martial arts such as Wing Chun and Hung Gar. However, any teacher is free to teach in whatever dialect he likes. It's not uncommon to see the same martial art under a completely different name depending on the origins of the teacher.
3. Chinese Characters Can be Simplified or Traditional
Chinese characters are the clearest way to express a Chinese name. If you can read Chinese characters, it's best not to translate or romanize them at all. But even then, there's a problem. In the 1950s, the Chinese government simplified the writing system in an effort to increase public literacy. Since then, there have been two sets of Chinese characters: Simplified and traditional.
Mainland China and Singapore use simplified characters, while traditional characters are used in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and many Chinese communities overseas. Both sets of characters are useful, depending on where you live or what you study.
Case Study: Tai Chi or Taiji?
"Tai Chi" is perhaps the best example of romanization problems. Let's take a look at how this is supposed to be written:
Hanyu Pinyin: Taijiquan
Wade-Giles: T'ai Chi Ch'üan
The name "Tai Chi" seems to be a bastardization of the Wade-Giles form. In other words, someone saw the Wade-Giles version but didn't understand the apostrophes or the umlaut. As a result, in the West you can see all kinds of variations: Taijiquan, Tai Chi Chuan, T'ai Chi Ch'uan, Taiji Chuan, T'aichi Quan, etc.
Some writers try to get around romanization by translating the name into English. This might work for simple names, like White Crane or Northern Praying Mantis, but Taijiquan does not translate well. "Taiji" is an ancient and complex metaphysical concept. "Quan" literally means "fist," and signifies that it is a method of fighting. Some English translations of Taijiquan include: "Supreme Ultimate Boxing," "Fist of the Great Ultimate," "Supreme Pole fist," etc. These are essentially meaningless translations, so the name is best left untranslated.
If you can't translate the name and Chinese characters aren't an option, then you had better pick a romanization system and stick with it.
Bring on the Names
What follows is a table of names for a variety of Chinese martial arts. Each name is written in English, romanized Mandarin and Cantonese, and both simplified and traditional characters. It is meant as an extended list of examples, not anything like an exhaustive list of Chinese martial arts. Names are sorted alphabetically by their common names, which are frequently inaccurate. When there are multiple entries in succession in a single cell, that means that there are multiple valid options.
If you'd like to know more about the information in this table, please refer to the FAQ at the bottom of the page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do all of those numbers and lines mean?
They tell you the tone of each syllable. Both Mandarin and Cantonese are tonal, which means that the tone of a syllable affects its meaning. Mandarin has four tones – or five, if you count "neutral." Cantonese essentially has six tones, but it's a little more complicated. In Pinyin, tones are expressed with little lines above certain vowels. In the other romanization systems above, tones are expressed with numbers.
If you're only interesting in reading small amounts of Chinese in the West, tones may not matter to you. Most of the time, Chinese is not romanized with tones.
What does Quan/Ch'üan mean?
The word Quán is the most common suffix in Chinese martial arts names. It literally means "fist," but it's often translated as "boxing." In reality, it means something like "way of fighting" or "martial art." So to fully translate the name of White Crane(bái hè quán), you would actually end up with "White Crane Martial Art." This translation is redundant, although it's more accurate than "White Crane Fist" or "White Crane Boxing."
I don't think that we should translate the word Quán. "Fist" is a literal translation, but doesn't really make sense. "Boxing" is antiquated and inaccurate, chosen by translators who were under the false assumption that Chinese martial arts are analogous to Western boxing. If you want to preserve this part of the name, just say it in Chinese instead of English.
Are there other ways to romanize Chinese? Why did you pick these four romanization systems?
Of course, there are all sorts of romanization systems, but I picked the four that seemed most widespread. For Mandarin, this is an easy decision: Pinyin is standard in China, while Wade-Giles still clings on in the West. Cantonese isn't nearly so standardized, but Yale and Jyutping are both relatively well-known systems.
What about dialects other than Mandarin or Cantonese?
There are many dialects of Chinese other than Mandarin and Cantonese, some of which are more widely spoken than Cantonese. But Mandarin is by far the most common, and Cantonese is disproportionately well-represented among martial artists in the Western world. Most names of Chinese martial arts that you can encounter in the West can be traced to one of these two dialects.
How do I find the equivalent pronunciation in Japanese, Korean, or Vietnamese?
First, copy the traditional Chinese characters for the name you are interested in. Then paste the characters into an appropriate online dictionary. It's important that you find a dictionary that is dedicated to that particular language, not an all-in-one dictionary like Google Translate. You're not just looking for the English equivalent, you're looking for how it is romanized.
Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese all have multiple writing systems, so you may be required to use a specific search field for Chinese characters. Each of the following terms refers to Chinese characters:
Japanese: Kanji
Korean: Hanja
Vietnamese: Hán tu.
Why did you choose these particular martial arts?
Chinese martial arts can be grouped together or divided infinitely. I've seen "exhaustive" lists and came away no better for it. With that in mind, I couldn't include them all.
I tried to include as many well-known arts as possible, but without too much redundancy. For example, I added Praying Mantis, but not Southern Praying Mantis, Seven Star Praying Mantis or Plum Blossom Praying Mantis. For the purposes of understanding names, I don't think it's necessary to include the latter three.
That said, it's not hard to add more to the list. If there's a name that you're curious about, drop me a line in the comments section.
What about martial arts with variations of the names posted above? (e.g. Bagua Quan vs. Bagua Zhang)
This is common. In some cases, it's the same martial art(or similar) under a different name, but there is no general rule. It may be helpful to know that Chinese martial arts tend to reuse a lot of the same words over and over. A lot of the time, the following words show up as suffixes:
Why didn't you include Wushu/Gongfu/Guoshu/Quan Fa/etc?
These are generic Chinese terms and not the names of specific martial arts.
Why isn't there an English translation for X?
It's not useful to translate every name. For example, Shaolin is just the name of a temple. It doesn't clarify the issue any further by explaining what Shao and Lin mean. Choy Li Fut is another example of an art which is almost impossible to translate. The first two characters are family surnames, while the last character refers to Buddha. It has been said that Choy Li Fut was a synthesis of three preexisting systems, and that each character refers to one of its predecessors. The name is therefore meaningful in Chinese, but gibberish if translated literally.
Some names contain references to complex philosophical concepts, like Taiji or Bagua. Bagua can be translated literally (Eight Trigrams), but that doesn't express the meaning behind the concept. Taiji is even more complex, and it's pointless to translate it.
Where do you get your translations?
I use the dictionaries at mdbg.net and nciku.com, although some translations are my own.

GUEST AUTHOR: Bill Antonitis is a high school English teacher and freelance writer. He has studied Shohei-Ryu and Uechi-Ryu karate since 1987 and Gracie jiu-jitsu since 2009. He blogs about martial arts at http://moaimartialarts.com and teaches karate at http://graciefv.com.
I recently began teaching a brand-new karate class for preschoolers and kindergarteners. Let that sink in a moment. If you have worked with this age group before, I'm sure you have a definite opinion about them. (They're super fun! I'm now an alcoholic.) If you've never worked with this age group before, I'm sure you have a definite opinion about them. (How hard can it be? I'll just lay down the law!)
Let me humbly suggest that no matter your level of experience as a martial artist, teacher, or parent, each class of little kids offers a unique and rewarding challenge. Each meeting of each class offers a unique and rewarding challenge. Each minute of each class offers a unique and rewarding challenge.
They say you never step in the same river twice. That's especially true when each of your students is riding a miniature emotional rollercoaster during class. (I love karate! I hate karate! I need to go potty! I love karate! Where's my mommy?) It's also very difficult to balance the entertainment and interactivity that kids need to enjoy the class with teaching the techniques, traditions, culture, and values of your art. I have yet to achieve this fine balance.
Observing the "Little Dragons" in the Wild
I am admittedly a novice in teaching this age group. I've taught them before but always as a substitute for a great class at an exceptional school. It really was easy. Now I'm starting from scratch. This is not so easy. Here are a few of my observations so far.
- Little kids these days have more energy and less attention span than ever.
- Capturing their attention is easy as long as you don't focus on one thing for too long.
- Working with little kids can cause adult-onset ADHD.
- Kids LOVE structure and routine.
- Structure and routine are your friends.
- Structure and routine go out the window when there's a new student in class.
- Kids are unbelievably cute.
- Kids know how cute they are.
- Kids use their cuteness to work things over on you.
- Parents are simultaneously your saving grace and your worst nightmare. They alternately focus and distract their children throughout class time—especially if they bring cameras.
- Kids enjoy learning basic punches and kicks. Kids love using basic punches and kicks on each other when you're not looking.
- Never underestimate the power of positive reinforcement. A little praise goes a long way.
- McDonald's got it right when they started offering toys in their Happy Meals. You'd be surprised how hard a little kid will work for a prize at the end of class!
- Remember not to be too serious. They're only children.
- Finally, never sit down. Ever. No matter how good you are at jiu-jitsu, you will not escape the imminent pig-pile.
Class Dismissed
So far, teaching 4-6 year-olds has been a blast. A loud and exhausting blast, but a lot of fun nonetheless. As I better learn to meet the needs of my new students, I know I will only improve as a teacher and martial artist. I encourage you to try working with these kids if given the opportunity; it will only help you grow in your art. The smiles and hugs at the end of each class are more rewarding than anything else I've accomplished in karate!
If you are an experienced teacher, please share some of your undoubtedly hard-earned wisdom. Your guidance will not only help the children, but some highly interested, somewhat frazzled, and extremely appreciative adults as well.

Why I'm Always Promoting Dropbox
If you've had much interaction with me regarding computers, no matter what the medium — Twitter, Facebook, email, dinner conversation, small talk during a gathering — I've probably mentioned a service called Dropbox. A few of you have already succumbed to my uncharacteristic marketing tone and signed up, but I thought I'd blog about it and perhaps get more people on board.
I'll start with the reasons I like the service, and then explain why, exactly, I'm doing this a little later.
The site bills itself as an online synchronization and backup solution. I use it mostly for the backup, but that will probably change in the future. After all, it was created by a couple guys who were tired of forgetting their flash drives. It's ironic to note that my current use of Dropbox is to back up my 8GB (soon to be 32GB) SanDisk Cruzer Micro, using a modification contributed by another user.
Dropbox is just plain fun to use, and it has a lot of cross-platform compatibility. It synchronizes files between computers running Windows, Mac OS, or Linux; keeps backup copies online (using Amazon's S³ service — not that I should get too technical); stores revisions when files are changed; and keeps deleted files in case of the inevitable "damn, I shouldn't have deleted that" moment.
The backups, revisions, and deleted files are accessible from any computer with an Internet connection. Files can be added, updated, deleted, and otherwise managed via the website, too, which is great for travel or forgotten files (presentations, school projects, whatever). There is also a mobile website for PDAs and a higher-end version optimized for Android– and iPhone OS – based devices, as well as an iPhone App (there's an app for that™) which of course also works on the iPod Touch.
When naughty Vista workstations have tried to corrupt irreplaceable recordings and other files, Dropbox has restored them (with a little direction from me). Last summer, I bent the connector on my flash drive pretty severely while working on a design project at a poorly arranged Emerson computer desk. It still works, and retracts; but after asking around a bit and hearing that the drive was now likely unreliable, I was motivated to upgrade from the old Dropbox U3 mod — which had trouble on all sorts of non-personal computers — to DropboxPortable — which has worked everywhere so far. (It still won't work at the local public libraries, though. But neither will anything else; they blanket – block EXEs.) If and when my drive decides to give up the ghost, I know Dropbox will be there to give me my drive back just as I had it, as soon as I replace the failed hardware.
I also back up my music collection in Dropbox, which is a great, perfectly legal way to make sure I don't lose any downloaded or ripped MP3s. As it turns out, it's also useful because the device I use as my MP3 player — a Roland Edirol R-09HR — happens to be very picky about file structure. If there's one bit out of place, I get an "Improper Song!" error and can't listen to that file. When this happens to a song that used to play, I've often been able to go back into the previous file versions for that MP3 and load a playable version onto my R-09HR. It's much easier than using a so-called "repair tool" on the file.
There's also the matter of deleted file recovery. I've used the deleted file recovery to reinstate everything from seldom-played music (deleted to free up space) and design research (I just messed up) to irreplaceable recordings from my R-09HR (corrupted by Vista).
The list of times Dropbox has come in handy and/or saved my bacon is endless. If it's saved me so many times in the space of one year, it can surely do you some good.
So do yourself and the great people at Dropbox ("the Dropboxers") a favor and give it a try. I'll bet you won't be disappointed.
Note: Signing up through the links in this post will net you an extra 250MB* of storage in addition to Dropbox's free 2GB plan. That extra storage will stay with you if you decide to upgrade your account. (Disclaimer: You'll also earn me an extra 250MB.*) I tried to work out something special with the Dropbox team via their now-defunct affiliate program, but they stopped the program just before I inquired, so I'm unfortunately rather limited in the benefits I can pass on. Too bad, really; I had in mind something rather spectacular.
* – Please note that you must install the Dropbox application on at least one computer before you or I will receive any additional storage.
Google Voice App Rejections: Catalyst for Cellular Openness?
If you haven't heard, Apple rejected Google's official Google Voice application several weeks ago (article from this week). However, I (at least) didn't hear the news until recently, when it became known that Apple also began pulling other Google Voice apps from its iPhone/iPod Touch App Store. TechCrunch's sources say that AT&T was behind the bans, and I'll believe it.
Now, I'm not an Apple fanboy, but I've been considering getting an iPod Touch lately. One of my roommates here at Emerson's summer program (yes I know I need to blog about that too; soon, I promise) has one, and he's graciously let me use it occasionally. It's been the perfect opportunity to figure out if I really want one, and try it out with some of my normal online activities. I do want one, though I'll wait until the new version comes out, supposedly in September, with (I hear) a microphone and maybe even a camera.
But back to Google Voice.
One good reason to get an iPod Touch would be a mobile interface to Google Voice that uses Wi-Fi instead of cell phone minutes (for checking voicemail) or text messages. Cost-saving: Check. But the mobile interface for Voice is pretty sparse, so an app would be awesome.
My plans were put in jeopardy when I got wind of the news that Apple had begun pulling apps that worked with the service from the App Store. I checked with my roommate's Touch and confirmed that they no longer appeared. For a while, I considered just skipping it. I was angered by Apple's ridiculous actions, and annoyed that my target device — the iPod Touch — could have its functionality limited by a company that didn't have anything to do with it. The iPhone and Touch might use the same operating system and App Store, but just because AT&T doesn't want an app on the iPhone doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to run it on my iPod.
Today comes news that the FCC sent letters to Apple, AT&T, and Google, beginning an investigation into this high-profile rejection. See, the FCC has a policy agenda here, one that was probably catalyzed by Google's letter to them two years ago. And in June, the FCC confirmed that it would be starting a review of exclusive contracts between handset manufacturers and cellular carriers.
The letters sent today are probably intended to use this heavily reported situation as an example, and to set a precedent. I hope that this investigation will find fault with the way Apple and AT&T conduct their business together, and will result in the FCC's restricting the kinds of apps that can be rejected, barring AT&T's involvement in the application approval process, and possibly even result in a completely open App Store (in the long term) or an unlocked iPhone (also in the long term, though the exclusive contract between AT&T and Apple ends soon enough).
Google went to bat for all of us consumers two years ago with that letter. Maybe it will turn out that they've inadvertently done so again, just by letting Apple do what it wants with the App Store. My fingers and toes are totally crossed on this one; I want an App Store that's more along the lines of the Android Marketplace or a Linux package manager.
Who's with me?
GrandCentral Becomes Google Voice!
It's taken 21 months — almost two years — but GrandCentral ("One number for all your phones, for life") has finally gotten an upgrade (and a new name). I'm totally excited, and happy that the long-awaited upgrade (previously known as GrandCentral 2.0) is finally here. Meet Google Voice: "One number for all your calls and SMS".
New Features
Yes, Google Voice added several new features. One of the things that always, always bugged me about GrandCentral was the fact that my number couldn't receive or send text messages. Well, now it can. According to TechCrunch's expansive overview, the same technology that powers the SMS in Gmail Chat Labs experiment (known as Gateway) is used in Google Voice.
Other new features include voicemail transcription (sounds promising), very specific per-contact settings (definitely a trap for us OCD types), a completely overhauled interface (w00t! Less Flash!), conference calling (cool factor = 100), and easy dialing out via the phone interface.
I have to stop and talk about the dial-out feature. First of all, it was nearly impossible to dial out from GrandCentral unless you either had a new voicemail from the person you wanted to call (so you could press '2' after it to call them back) or had access to a Web-enabled device. Simply dialing out wasn't considered. Now, in Google Voice, there's a "press '2'" option right in the main menu! Finally!
Also, under GrandCentral's auspices, calling out was free during beta, with the shadow of paying per minute after testing was over looming in the future. Google changed that in Voice, which allows free calls anywhere in the United States. International calls are at greatly reduced rates (compared to conventional long-distance). Each new user gets a free $1.00 credit toward international calls, though I don't know if they'll keep that up once sign-ups are opened completely — it could be something just for migrating GC users.
Migration, Stranded Data, and Missing Features
Existing GrandCentral users get (or will get this weekend) a migration link at the top of their grandcentral.com inboxes, which will begin the automated migration of a GrandCentral number to Google Voice. The process was pretty painless, even smoother than the transition to the new FeedBurner system last month.
However, much data is not migrated. Most of the settings are reset, custom greetings and names must be re-recorded, old voicemails/calls/recorded calls are left behind on grandcentral.com, and contacts must be transferred manually by exporting GrandCentral's Address Book to CSV and importing it into Google Contacts. The automatic merging of imported contacts only merged about half of the duplicates in my set, and I had very few contacts to deal with. That was fortunate, because the rest of the merges had to be found and made manually.
In the future, I hope Google will provide a utility to migrate old voicemails from GrandCentral, especially if grandcentral.com is eventually shut down or redirected. Currently, the top of my GrandCentral inbox says:
Since you have migrated to the Google Voice Preview, you can now access your new messages and update your settings by logging in at google.com/voice. Feel free to continue to access grandcentral.com for your older voicemail messages. We're glad you dropped by.
That's inconvenient. But really, how often do I visit old voicemails? Not much. Besides, a lot of them were inexplicably lost… Their listings are present, but they can't be played; I'm guessing the files somehow went missing. I'm not happy about that, but… at least it hasn't happened again.
A minor annoyance is the loss of custom ringback tones, the sounds played to a caller while the phone is ringing on your end. (Google does have a suggestion to bring this back on the Google Voice Feature Suggestion page.)
Future Ideas
Of course, Google Voice is not without holes. It can't forward to numbers that require extensions (I don't need it now, but might in the future). It can't take an existing number and turn it into a Google number (which would be eminently useful, I think, for my mother).
There are also no apps for iPhone or Android yet (and I don't care about Blackberry, kthx). But the feature suggest page I mentioned above has all these and more. I've suggested about 75% of the features currently on the list, including integration with Gmail and Google Talk. I'm hopeful that these and more ideas (like the two I posted on Twitter) will be implemented, and sooner rather than later.
Speaking of future ideas, Lifehacker ran a short post yesterday speculating that the reserved "Voicemail" label in Gmail is for integration with Voice. It's actually for Google Talk voicemails (GTalk has a calling feature that I almost never use because of various technological or locational constraints), but it could certainly be useful for Voice messages as well, if Gmail and Voice are ever integrated.
Despite the inconveniences, I think I'm going to like the service. It's a vast improvement upon GrandCentral; in fact, TechCrunch's Leena Rao says (in the overview mentioned above), "Google is finally bringing us the voice service that was promised back in 2006." I agree; the old GrandCentral was convenient, but Google Voice promises to be many times as useful.
Google Infringing on Sun Patents with Android's Dalvik?
OK, so Google doesn't call it a Java VM; to them, it's "Dalvik", not Java. It does accept Java bytecode, though, and turns it into Dalvik bytecode. Sun hasn't filed any lawsuits yet, and as far as I know doesn't consider Google's custom virtual machine to be a problem or infringement on their intellectual property. But the developer community and Sun are going over the nonstandard VM that Google made.
When Android came out, I was determined to ignore it, as mobile phone technology doesn't really affect me these days (not until I actually get a cell phone). Since then, Google's announced a full SDK, $10 million developer competition, and shown prototypes that look pretty promising, actually. OK, so all I saw of the prototypes was a few pictures on another blog, but it looked cool. And I can't ignore the Linux part. Not anymore, at least.
Anyway, some people call Google's move "clever", among other things, mostly positive from what I've read. That word above is the opinion of Stefano Mazzocchi, a developer and board member at Apache Labs. Others, such as Hari Gottipatti (a mobile developer), say Google converts the bytecodes so it can say Dalvik is not a Java virtual machine. The general consensus, at least according to my take on the article I read, seems to be that Google is somehow avoiding Sun licensing fees, though (says Gottipatti) Sun might have just waived the licensing if Google had simply approached them and asked.
Me, I'm not too terribly interested in the whole Android thing, but this particular part of it, the maybe-Java-maybe-not part, seems to be worth following. Next thing is to find out whether or not Sun will pursue legal action against Google for what sounds like, on the surface, copying Java Micro Edition. Such a lawsuit probably wouldn't be a good vibe for a company so active in the open source movement, but you never know. I'll definitely keep an eye out for further developments on this one; it's piqued my interest.
PS: To anyone who's ever used the phrase "peaked my interest" or "peeked my interest" (ouch!), please go to your blog control panel right now and fix it. Now! Reading those two words in place of the real one hurts my brain; they give a different (and often nonsensical) meaning to the sentence. How do you peek an interest? I didn't think so…

Glee's Final Season Features Lea Michele's Rachel Berry Returning to McKinley High to Lead the Glee Club
Will Rachel Berry be the new Mr. Schuester? That's what it looks like according to FOX's press release on Glee's sixth and final season. After a failed venture as a TV actress, star Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) will return to Lima, Ohio only to discover that (gasp!) the villainous Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch) has shut down the arts programs at McKinley High.
PHOTOS: Lea Michele's stunning red carpet style
Rachel will then take charge and lead the New Directions while Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison), Sam Evans (Chord Overstreet), and Blaine Anderson (Darren Criss) take on "surprising new gigs" in Lima.
PHOTOS: Glee stars' best hairstyles
Ryan Murphy's hit show took a tragic turn in July 2013, when star Cory Monteith died at the age of 31 from a "mixed drug toxicity" consisting of heroin and alcohol. The actor and his character Finn Hudson were honored in an October 2013 episode called "The Quarterback."
PHOTOS: Lea and Cory's romance
Creator Murphy had originally planned to include Finn in the series' final episode, telling Entertainment Weekly, "The ending of Glee is something I have never shared with anyone, but I always knew it. I've always relied on it as a source of comfort, a North Star. The very last line of dialogue was to be this: Rachel comes back to Ohio, fulfilled and yet not, and walks into Finn's glee club. 'What are you doing here?' he would ask. 'I'm home,' she would reply. Fade out. The end."
The beloved musical comedy's final 13 episodes will air mid-season in 2015.

MASSENA - Many residents and economic development officials believe the municipality will have to make significant revisions to its zoning regulations and village code in order to effectively revitalize downtown Massena with the help of state grant funds.
The Business Development Corporation for a Greater Massena is in the planning stages of how to utilize $250,000 from the New York State Main Street Grant Program to improve the villages downtown corridor. Many have expressed concern that absentee landlords and owners of derelict buildings could undermine the revitalization effort.
The BDCs consultant, Rick Hauser of In:Site Architecture, warned that derelict buildings are not only unsightly but may make investors less willing to invest in the downtown corridor. You cant be in a position where youre opening up a business, and you have blighted and boarded-up buildings on each side of you. Your business there is compromised, Mr. Hauser said.
He pointed out that as part of the Main Street revitalization effort, community members will form a committee dedicated to identifying ways the village can amend its code in order to address derelict properties within the villages downtown area.
The (code revision committee) is about the idea of creating a downtown people will want to invest in because they know its a downtown where their neighbors are held to a higher standard, Mr. Hauser said.
The code revision committee, also called the anti-blight task force, is being led by resident Vance Fleury, owner of River Crest Enterprises, Inc. The committee is open to all interested members of the public.
At a meeting Wednesday on the downtown revitalization, Mayor James F. Hidy pointed out the villages Board of Trustees is considering a public nuisance law that would aim to tackle both crime and derelict structures n the village. Mr. Hidy believes this law would force absentee landlords to maintain their properties and keep them up to code. He feels these individuals are largely to blame for why the village is in the state that its in.
Were about ready to adopt a public nuisance law that adopts a number of things under one umbrella, Mr. Hidy said. We dont want to make it too drastic, but it has to be something with teeth. Its going to ruffle some feathers but at this point we dont care.
At a village board meeting last week, Mr. Hidy presented trustees with information on a local law used by the city of Rome. If a public nuisance like the sale of illegal drugs or firearms, gang activity or assaults occur at a property more than once, the village could issue a court summons under the law for civil action.
In light of everything thats been going on - with drugs and a lot of crime activity out of rental homes - this could help address those issues affecting our community, Mr. Hidy said. This law blankets the whole idea of what were trying to do.
If the buildings tenants or owner are found responsible for the continuing problems at the property, they could be fined. If the problems continue, the village could then issue a permanent injunction and control the building until the problems stop or are solved, Police Chief Timmy J. Currier said.
Aside from blighted properties, the code revision committee will look at ways to try to create a downtown with a more cohesive appearance. Mr. Fleury said the committee will look to create an overlay district, which applies specifically to the downtown area. Buildings that fall within this area will have to adhere to certain guidelines regarding color schemes, signage, doors and replacement of broken windows within a timely manner.
Massena Town Supervisor Joseph D. Gray suggested such requirements were long overdue in Massena. He pointed to the strict codes on building facades in the village of Potsdam; he feels those codes helped Potsdams downtown become much more attractive and more economically successful than Massenas.
Our downtown is a freaking mess because of that (lack of strict codes). Are we going to keep limping along looking like this? Mr. Gray asked.
BDC Board Chair Daniel S. Pease said Potsdam faced a number of lawsuits because of its strict code. Mr. Gray said he would like to have a code that strikes a balance between freedom for the owners and strict requirements to create a cohesive-looking downtown.
BDC Executive Director Michael Almasian believes historic preservation should be an important part of any revisions the village makes to its code. There are certain buildings, certain homes, certain community blocks that are what makes Massena Massena, Mr. Almasian said.
One business owner, Paul Morrow, raised concern that if the code is too strict it might discourage new development rather than promote it. The stricter the codes are the more people you turn away. Ive done a lot of building here, and theres a lot of restrictions, and restrictions cost you money, Mr. Morrow said.
Mr. Gray replied that stricter codes were in the interest of creating a more attractive downtown, which could benefit all downtown business owners. Why would you want to replace a broken window with plywood? Mr. Gray said. We have to force people to make those repairs.
Others feel certain aspects of the existing code could be detrimental to revitalization efforts.
Ken C. Cornell, owner of Cornells Dry Cleaning Corporation, said the villages current code doesnt allow some storefront features such as certain types of signage and awnings. Mr. Hauser recommended awnings as an effective way to both make a storefront look more attractive and hide imperfections on a buildings facade.
Is the village ready to make the changes to the building code so we can actually do these things? In order for the whole (revitalization effort) to work, we have to be able to do what they recommend and do it legally, Mr. Cornell said.
Mr. Hidy said the villages building code will also be revised to give more freedom to business owners seeking to use grant funds to revitalize their businesses.
Some of the targets were going after intend to not just go after blighted properties, but to be more aggressive to let business owners buy into the program, Mr. Hidy said.
Village board members hope to have a resolution for a public nuisance law prepared within the next few months. Being a local law, the village board would first have to hold a public hearing voting on any proposed changes to its code.

I've had a look through the various similar posts but can't spot the error of my ways with this one. Basically I have two views which update different parts of a "Settings" object. The view models contain one of two properties and depending on which is being set, should ignore the other. It works fine when it's ViewModel ==> Entity direct but when Automapper tries to update the nested object it fails.
I have the following object structure:
public class Account
public int AccountId { get; set; }
public DateTime DateToBeIgnored { get; set; }
public AccountSetting Settings { get; set; }
public class AccountSetting
public string PropertyOne { get; set; }
public string PropertyTwo { get; set; }
public class AccountViewModel
public int AccountId { get; set; }
public DateTime DateToBeIgnored { get; set; }
public AccountSettingViewModel Settings { get; set; }
public class AccountSettingViewModel
public string PropertyTwo { get; set; }
public class OtherAccountSettingViewModel
public string PropertyOne { get; set; }
With the mappings:
void WireUpMappings()
// From the entities to the view models
Mapper.CreateMap<Account, AccountViewModel>();
Mapper.CreateMap<AccountSetting, AccountSettingViewModel>();
Mapper.CreateMap<AccountSetting, OtherAccountSettingViewModel>();
// From the view models to the entities
Mapper.CreateMap<AccountViewModel, Account>()
.ForMember(dest => dest.DateToBeIgnored, opt => opt.Ignore());
Mapper.CreateMap<AccountSettingViewModel, AccountSetting>()
.ForMember(dest => dest.PropertyTwo, opt => opt.Ignore());
Mapper.CreateMap<OtherAccountSettingViewModel, AccountSetting>()
.ForMember(dest => dest.PropertyOne, opt => opt.Ignore());
When mapping [OtherAccountSettingViewModel --> AccountSetting], only the property "PropertyTwo" is assigned (and the original value for "PropertyOne" remains unchanged) -this is what I would expect.
However when mapping [AccountViewModel --> Account] "DateToBeIgnored" is ignored as intended whereas Account.AccountSetting.PropertyTwo's previous value is replaced with "null".
Can anyone spot the error of my ways?

The words "may not" are substituted for "shall not".1948 Act
Prior section 556.—Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., §§ 395 and 396 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, §§ 273, 274,36 Stat. 1164).

The revised section substitutes, as simpler and more appropriate, the prohibition against practice of law "in any court of the United States" for the more involved language of section 395 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., which provided that no clerks or marshals, deputies, or assistants within the district for which appointed "shall act as solicitor, proctor, attorney or counsel, in any cause depending in any of said courts, or in any district for which he is acting as such officer."
Provisions of section 396 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., for striking the name of an offender from the roll of attorneys and for recommendation of dismissal, were omitted as unnecessary and as covered by section 541 of this title.
Changes were made in phraseology.

It was easier for me to put it into electronic tickler (@Tickler folder that I check every weekly review) then to search for the project it belongs to, then opening project notes and typing it in (I use Pocket Informant for my GTD setup). Is it GTD or anti-GTD way?

Sam Presti on Wednesday weighed in on a topic that remains a debate around only a few office water coolers.
Where does Russell Westbrook rank among the NBA's best point guards?
Sam Presti on Wednesday weighed in on a topic that remains a debate around only a few office water coolers.
Where does Russell Westbrook rank among the NBA's best point guards?
"He's among the top tier of guys," said Presti, the Oklahoma City Thunder general manager. "No question about it."
The question is will Westbrook now be paid like it.
Teams will be permitted to begin signing free agents and making trades on Friday afternoon, according to reports. With Westbrook now entering his fourth season, he is currently eligible to receive a contract extension.
Presti and the entire Thunder organization repeatedly have made it clear how they feel about Westbrook. "Everybody knows how we feel about him as a player," Presti said at his annual preseason news conference Wednesday. "But I think equally as important is him as a person. He has evolved on a year-to-year basis, and a big part of that is because of the real disciplined approach he's taken with his own development and the work that our coaches have done."
But it's unclear how soon the two sides might strike a deal.
The NBA's new collective bargaining agreement has yet to be ratified, which means GMs and agents still aren't entirely sure what the new rules will look like. Based on that alone, it probably isn't realistic to expect Westbrook and the Thunder to swiftly come to terms on a new deal like Kevin Durant did last summer.
In the event that an extension is not hammered out, however, Westbrook will be a restricted free agent next summer and the Thunder would have the right to match any offer another team presents. Under the old rules, the Thunder would have had until Oct. 31 to reach a deal before Westbrook would have become a free agent. Now, it's unclear when the new deadline might be.
All that is obvious at this point is Westbrook's status as one of the game's next great point guards. And no matter what, he figures to soon be paid like it.
Where that figure might come in, though, remains a mystery. Comparing Westbrook to the league's other young elite point guards can only get you so far. In all likelihood, the new CBA will mean Westbrook's deal will be completely different, possibly even to the point that any comparison to previous contracts would be an apples-to-oranges association.
It's been reported that the new CBA will decrease extensions from five years with annual raises of 10.5 percent to four years with maximum raises of 7.5 percent. So a new deal for Westbrook appears destined to be vastly different from, for instance, Chris Paul's extension at the same point in his career.
But just like the old agreement, there are quite a few clauses that could change things. It also has been reported that teams will have the ability to designate one player to be eligible for a five-year contract at the maximum allowable salary. Additionally, the new rules are expected to include a provision called the "Derrick Rose rule" that allows for further compensation beyond a typical extension to a rookie scale contract.
Under that provision, a player coming off a rookie scale contract could receive up to 30 percent of the salary cap if he has been named an All-Star starter twice, an All-NBA First, Second or Third member twice or the league MVP once. Under the old rules, players in this position could qualify only for 25 percent of the salary cap.

I've seen both liters and handles advertised on various websites in the past!
Saw some this past weekend in Stevens Point. Joe
" I never met a Weller I didn't like"
My Dad goes out to the OshKosh airshow every august and a few years back I had him grab me a couple 1.75's at a store in that town. $15 a piece. At the time I talked to the WI distributor and was told it only came in plastic 1.75's. It is very distinctive and not bad. I like it. Like Mellow Corn, a must for your whiskey education. Reminds me strongly of bazooka bubble gum. I brought a bottle down to the gazebo the last time I was there, probably a year or 2 back. Still have some in the bunker

"You're the best bourbon drinkers ever!" - Margo (waitress at Bourbon's Bistro in Louisville)
I've looked around (northern, central, western) WI and haven't found any. I'm really curious, even moreso the more I look and of course read posts here, to try the stuff.
When I worked in WI I drank it regularly. It had a juicy fruit gum taste to me. I only ever saw it in handles. Another rye I have only sen up there was stephen foster. It was really a good young rye. Same price range. I think heaven hill makes it. Lot of rye fans there I guess. It is also the only place I have seen 1.75 of jb rye. The store I shopped at really went through it also.
