Look at this not cheap but a working solution.
Seems no solution.
My opinion is to read from OBD2 instead of CAN-BUS.

Is there somebody who has...
No, Becker 3100 is a bit different. But I will search and researc about this Bipes MP3 Adapter.
This is how it looks in my MB CLK:
Thanks. I`m not from NYC, I`m from Bulgaria, this is Eastern Europe.
I need exactly the ADC because the sound comes analog from the MP3 player or carputer or what ever sound source, than it is...
Thanks for sharing the info. Unfortunately my head unit is Becker BE 3100 and the car is MB CLK W208 year 2001 and the head unit is equipped with the noticed optical plug - D2B so it comes very...

Hi I first reply to your previous topic.
It looks very nice. I see you have removed the pocket under the head unit and move the climate control from the top dashboard to the free place under the HU....
Where do you plan to place the LCD?
I`m asking because I have the same W208 but dark blue color outside and white inside with 200K engine.
Also I have some problems when trying to detach the...
Did you solve the problem?
What is your head unit? Can you post a photo of the head unit...
Can I suggest to use some simple relays and servo motors to control the old mechanical AC? Relays and servos are not very expensive and can replace buttons and mechanical rotating switches. Thus can...

The beer is made with both Cascade and Nugget hops. Look for it at both Thirsty Monks, Barleys, Bruisin Ales, Mellow Mushroom and at the brewery. Tap time is 6 p.m.
What makes this brew different is that its created with fresh hops, which imparts a very different and enjoyable taste. This is the first time Pisgah has used Cascade hops.
On Saturday, you can keep the hops vibe going with a tour of Black Mountains Hopn Blueberry Farm and Pisgah Brewing Co.
Get to the farm, at 24 Middle Mountain Road, by 12:45 p.m. Saturday for the 1 p.m. tour. Then head over to Pisgah to sample some more beer. Its a very cheap $8.
No advance tickets are being sold; get them at the farm on Saturday.

Asheville Brewings much-awaited canning equipment is expected to ship this week from its Canadian manufacturer. The $90,000 canning line the first of its kind in Asheville will be delivered to the brewerys downtown Coxe Avenue location, where space has been cleared for its installation.

Well keep you posted on the progress.
Hang with a master brewer

The Army National Guard put on anti-bullying demonstrations at Ashford High School.
The soldiers encouraged students to live by their code of integrity, honor, loyalty and respect.
"Students need to have role models to help understand the problem today when we were talking to some students they realized that some of the behavior they been doing may have been bullying, they are seeing things for what they were a little bit and looking at things as how they should be," said Sergeant Jere Jensen, First Class Army National Guard.
School administrators hope this program will cut down on the bullying at the school.

Re: 5.2p1 no longer sets DISPLAY

Hi, I have Solaris 8+ systems with a working OpenSSH 3.9p1 build which
work perfectly. We set X11Forwarding to yes in the config and get
DISPLAY=localhost:10.0 allowing X tunnelling back.
I have just recently built OpenSSH 5.2p1 and installed sshd on some
machines and now the DISPLAY env variable is not set at all. As far as I
can tell, nothing else has changed (account dot files are the same,
client ssh is still 3.9p1 and sshd_config is the same). The only way I
can get DISPLAY to work is to set X11UseLocalhost to no in sshd_config
and then it gets <hostname>:10.0 and works just fine.
I have tried forcing X11DisplayOffset and XAuthLocation (and checked
that it was right). I have tried ssh -X (though that is the default) and
ssh -Y and none of these make any difference. The messages from -vv show
the two calls to xauth followed by "Requesting X11 forwarding with
authentication spoofing" and "channel 0: request x11-req confirm 0" just
the same as the working version.
I can only presume that I have done something wrong with the build but
can't see what. Any ideas please?
Try adding "AddressFamily inet" to sshd_config and restarting.
If that works: what's happening is that the OS is asked for a list of addresses for localhost and is returning a list that includes the inet6 address, however attempting to bind to it fails. Previously sshd would ignore this failure, but that allows third parties to bind to inet6 ports in the X11 forwarding range and potentially hijack X connections. For more detail see the 5.1 release notes (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1).

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- The last time South Carolina played at Florida, the Gamecocks celebrated a division title.
Coach Steve Spurrier got doused and carried to midfield. Players hooted and hollered on the sideline, in the locker room and on the flight home.
The Gators remember it vividly.
Safety Josh Evans says it's "a feeling you'll never forget."
No doubt, third-ranked Florida (6-0, 5-0 Southeastern Conference) will use that 36-14 loss as motivation when the ninth-ranked Gamecocks (6-1, 4-1) return to The Swamp on Saturday.
Evans says "it's definitely revenge."
No titles are on the line in this one, but the winner will take command in the Eastern Division. Making it to Atlanta for the SEC championship game is the top goal for both teams, and Saturday's loser will need help getting there.

Zella - Takapuna Boating Club's committee boat - Day 2 - 2011 NZ 470 Nationals, Takapuna
Takapuna Boating Club is about to host their fourteenth world championship event: The 2012 470 Junior World Championships begin on 26th January 2012. With the Pre-worlds event finished, this popular sailing club on Auckland's North Shore is ready for the main event to start.
'We're quite accustomed to running large scale world championship events, but this one has been during a more difficult funding environment than most due to the Rugby World Cup.' Takapuna Boating Club's commodore Evelyn Johnson is satisfied that now everything has now fallen into place before the event begins.
'We've been very fortunate to gain some sponsorship and this event wouldn't be happening without the support of our volunteers, the Auckland Council, SPARC, Victoria Cruising Club Trust and Lion Foundation in particular.'
The 470 Class Junior World Championships begin for more than thirty boats from thirteen countries on Friday 27 January, including three NZL women's entries and six NZL open entries. Full racing commences Saturday 28th January and continues through until the medal races on Friday 3rd February, 2012.
As at any world championship event, the competition is predicted to be fierce. Many of the teams entered for this event have just finished the ISAF World Sailing Championships in the 470 class (all ages) in Perth.Several of the New Zealand entrants have previously represented New Zealand at the ISAF Youth Worlds, including James Turner, Ben Goodwin, Sarah Berry, Emma Berry, Vicki Francis, Erica Dawson and Bianca Barbarich-Bacher.
Sarah and Emma Berry, sisters from Wellington's Worser Bay Boating Club have been quiet on the local scene lately, but have medalled at a World Championship in the 420 class off Takapuna Beach in 2007.
'I love sailing at Takapuna, it's one of my favourite places and there's always a great breeze'. Emma Berry is looking forward to getting back into the 470 class for this event with her sailing partner and sister Sarah. 'We've both been concentrating on University lately... I am going into third year of Law and Sarah is going into second year of design.'
These two young women have a long record of sailing together both within New Zealand and internationally and much of their success is due to the strength of their relationship. Emma explained: 'It's really good sailing with my sister. In 2007 at the Takapuna 420 World Championships we sailed our best because we got on ridiculously well and we're getting along quite well at the moment too.'
There is another team of siblings to look out for at this event, Australian juniors Matthew and Robert Crawford were the winners of the pre-worlds event which ended on January 22nd. The Crawford brothers were closely followed by New Zealand's two selected Olympic 470 teams, Paul Snow Hansen with Jason Saunders, and Jo Aleh with Olivia Powrie.
Both of these high performance teams from the NZL Sailing Team are older than the age allowance for this event. To be eligible to compete in the 470 Junior Championships, athletes shall not have attained his or her 22 birthday before the end of the year of the Championship.
New Zealanders Luke Stevenson (Tauranga) and Sam Bullock (Takapuna) are another one of the NZ crews to watch, having gained one of the top junior results at the 2011 470 Class World Championships at Perth in December, and a fifth place finish at the Takapuna pre-worlds event despite some gear breakage. Gareth Moore (Christchurch) and Ben Goodwin (Napier) are in a similar situation coming back from Perth, and straight into a fourth place finish at the regatta this past weekend. A new combination of James Turner (Auckland), who also competed in Perth, has teamed up with 420 World Championship Class Silver medallist Finn Drummond (Auckland) will also be a team who could make an impression as the regatta progresses.
Planning for this event has been approximately 18 months in the build up, and could not be possible without the support of numerous sponsors and volunteers. There will be a team of approximately 80 volunteers assisting on and off the water led by Principal Race Officer Ian Clouston and Race Secretary Janet Watkins.
'This event simply could not exist without the support of Auckland Council, SPARC, YNZ, Oceanbridge, Harken, OKI and the Lion Foundation.' Takapuna's Commodore Evelyn concluded ' We also wish to thank Murrays Bay Sailing Club and Torbay Sailing Club for the use of their RIB's for Race Officers, and also to Sailutions, Harken and The Water Shed for their contributions toward prizes for the competitors'.
Schedule of events:
27 January: Practice Race 3:00pm
27 January: Opening Ceremony 7:00pm
28 January- 2 February: Racing commences, 11:00am daily
3 February: Medal Race
3 February: Closing Ceremony 5:00pm

|Reticulocyte quantification by Coulter MAXM VCS (volume, conductivity, light scatter) technology.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 8969628 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|In this study the ability of the Coulter MAXM analyzer to quantify reticulocytes was evaluated. The results were compared with those obtained by a microscopic method according to NCCLS H44-P recommendations and with the results from the automated analyzer Sysmex R-1000. Duplicate samples from 330 patients were analyzed. The reference intervals obtained with the three methods were: MAXM 0.37-1.80%, median 0.83%; manual 0.40-2.30%, median 1.00%; R-1000 0.60-1.95%, median 1.06%. The imprecision (CV) at all concentrations is lower than the microscopic method (low 16.1% vs 67%; normal 16.9% vs 28.9%; high 9.5% vs 13.0%). The MAXM shows a good overall correlation with the microscopic method (intercept 0.01, slope 0.89, r2 = 0.87) despite evidence of a significant overestimation at low concentrations [difference (D) 0.30] and a moderate underestimation at normal (D -0.15) and high (D -1.04) concentrations; the same behavior is shown in comparison with results from the R-1000, with an overall underestimation by MAXM (D -0.26). When compared with the microscopic method, MAXM shows a modest sensitivity at low reticulocyte counts (54.8%) and satisfactory sensitivity for high counts (87.3%), with an overall agreement of 81.3%.

$10,000 Keith Urban mural scrapped in search for new icon.
- From: Townsville Bulletin
- May 28, 2014
HE PACKS out concert halls the world over but there is one place people refuse to see country music superstar Keith Urban: Townsville's CBD laneway.
A controversial plan by the city for a $10,000 mural of the musician has been thrown back to its council committee after locals demanded the singer be replaced with the likeness of a star more local.
The CBD-revitalisation idea looks likely to still go ahead but it could be a portrait of footballer Matthew Bowen or Gordon Tallis, former Townsville Sun cartoonist Bob Hebden or bravery medal winner and former police Sergeant Osmond Cislowski whose portraits grace the city laneway instead of the New Zealand-born musician after strong responses from the public regarding the local relevance of the subject.
"Mostly people are upset that it is not someone we really know," Community and Cultural committee chair councillor Suzanne Blom said.
"If you do not like Keith Urban you may not know him. Just because he's married to Nicole Kidman does not make him Townsville or Australia's most popular person," she said.
Cr Blom initially supported the idea, which was first proposed two weeks ago as part of the council's art activation project to decorate the brick facade of the old Dimmeys building within the new City Lane precinct.
The project was to be a "Wall of Fame" which would be redone whenever a new music star toured through.
But Cr Blom said negative feedback had been overwhelming.
"The people of Townsville want to see a local person on the wall, a person they can relate to and have pride in.
"Keith Urban I'm sorry, we have many great people, some living some dead. We have just buried a man who received a King George Medal for Bravery.
"We have Matty Bowen — a legend of our own Cowboys. Even though he was born elsewhere we claim him as our own."
Councillor Les Walker yesterday said Townsville had plenty of its own luminaries to turn to, as well as many who didn't get enough recognition.
"We do have some famous people who are born and bred. We've got Gordon Tallis a born and bred local," Cr Walker said.
"We do need to let our professional staff go back and have a look at it in terms of subject matter.
"We need to push on with our vision and it's a great initiative but I agree maybe Keith Urban wasn't a very good choice."
Townsville Mayor Jenny Hill yesterday conceded a change of subject was appropriate.
"The real issue here has really been about the choice and I'm happy to see it go back to the street art committee that we have at council to come up with a much more suitable person that we might place in the portrait there," she said.
"I don't think that's a bad outcome.
"To be honest it's not about being a fan it's about creating a sense of place."

At least the Mayor and Councillors listened to the people unlike the state or Federal governments selling you down the road ?
Warren BUTTERWORTH of TOWNSVILLE Posted at 4:05 PM May 28, 2014
We've wasted money on a crocodile that has absolutely no relevance to the City, so why should we recognise someone else that doesn't have any connection with the area. There are numerous former residents who deserve to be recognise before someone who has never lived here.

My wife, Sandy, loves this tangy but mellow-tasting taco burger. The use of the pita pocket makes your feel like your are making a taco but the taste is out of this world for a burger.
This is a great burger to serve on a crusty roll. All condements go well with it. You can experiment with the grated cheese-Parmesan works best.
Hi, I'm not quite sure what you are looking for in the introduction, so I will tell you a little about my self.
I believes a real beef burger begins with a pinch of salt and pepper. Then you use your imagination to develop the meat and turn it into a memorable epicuious event.
Reduce Calorie,less oils, tasty,my favorite lean burgers
Our family has always loved Burgers. We them them once a week. Everyone always says I make the best burgers. I think it is because they are no fuss and so simple.
Totally awesome summer burger: I created this recipe after my recent trip to the Rivera Maya, Mexico. This really hit the spot after many, many Tequila Sunrises! Ole...
this burger has all it's ingredients in it as it cooks.
I don't even like beef, but I love these burgers.. and so do all of my friends. Very simple and easy to do.
The Fiesta Burger is a combination of fresh ground chuck, fresh peppers, onion, garlic and spices typically found in a Mexican dish.
We have a grill party every year just to make these burgers!
An everyday workingman's burger done to steakhouse specifications and including various standard steakhouse menu items
A classic New England Burger that goes great with a good Boston Ale to wash it down.
This recipe combines the powerful fresh flavor of basil and balsamic vineger into a burger that is juicy and mouth watering
This burger is mouthwatering and you really don't want to stop at just one.The first bite is tangy and the rest cheesy.This burger is a family dinner must have.
Hi! My name is Sharon and I live in Edmonds, Washington. I love a good burger so I thought I would step up to the plate and put my basic burger to the test. Sharon
This is an "easy on the wallet" knock off of a crab cake sandwich and in my opinion tastes even better made with tuna!
This burger is poular with almost everyone! Prep is key so give yourself a little extra time to recreate this burger. Enjoy!
This is a happy Burger, to be served with either Sutter Red or White due and owing to the unique flavor. Children & adults alike, will crave this burger.

A blanket is a type of bedding, generally speaking a large piece of cloth, intended to keep the user warm at indoor and outdoor events. One of our most popular military blankets is made out of polar fleece material. Polar fleece (also known as microfleece or micrafleece) is usually referencing the fabric fleece. Fleece is soft and comfortable to wear, a very warm and lightweight fabric used on many clothing products. Water vapor from perspiration passes through readily and little is held within the fleece. This makes it a good choice for physical activities where sweating is likely to occur. It is a good alternative for those who are allergic or sensitive to wool. Fleece dries very quickly and retains much of its insulation capability even when it is wet. We also offer extremely warm wool blankets. Wool has the power to readily absorb and give off moisture. It can absorb moisture up to one-third of its own weight. Synthetic fibers can only absorb 2-3 percent of moisture before they begin to feel wet. Wool is harder to ignite than most synthetic and cotton fibers used in equivalent products (higher ignition temperature); it has lower rate of flame spread, low heat release, and low heat of combustion; doesn't melt or drip; forms a char which is insulating and self-extinguishes. Wool is static resistant as the retention of moisture within the fabric prevents a build up of static electricity. Woolen garments are much less likely to spark or cling to the body. We also offer casualty blankets which are usually used in cases of emergency. Since hypothermia is a major risk for a casualty, the blanket must be wrapped around the casualty to avoid the heat leak. A must for any camping survival kit, doubles as a suntan blanket. Ideal for hunters, backpackers, first aid kit, or anyone subjected to adverse outdoor conditions. The casualty blanket is manufactured specifically to prevent hypothermia and maintain body heat. The flexible and sturdy blanket enables care in a variety of difficult conditions (water, land, air). Emergency blankets have emergency protection in all weather conditions. Waterproof, windproof, will not crack, mildew or shrink. Military Blankets are also known as wool fleece military warming supplies, outdoor winter weather camping and hiking gears, army navy camouflage tactical survivalists equipments replicas, government issued style accessories shop, Military Blankets are commonly misspelled as cheap camo covers, discounted camoflauge layered sales, etc.

HANCOCK, JOHN (1824–1893). John Hancock, congressman and judge, son of John Allen Hancock, was born near Bellefonte, Alabama, on October 24, 1824. After attending the University of East Tennessee at Knoxville, he worked on his father's Alabama farm before he began to study law at Winchester, Tennessee. He was admitted to the Alabama bar in 1846, then moved to Austin, Texas, in January 1847 and began a lucrative law practice. In 1851 he was elected district judge of the Second Judicial District for a term of six years; he resigned at the end of four years to resume his law practice and engage in planting and stock raising. He earned a high reputation for soundness of legal opinion and promptness in dispatch of business.
Hancock was elected to the Texas legislature as a Unionist in 1860. During the Civil War he was an avowed Union man but took no part in active hostilities. In March 1861 as a member of the legislature he declined to take the oath of allegiance to the Confederate States and was expelled from the legislature. He practiced in the state courts but refused to conduct any legal business in the Confederate courts or in any way to recognize their validity or constitutionality. In 1864 he left Texas for Mexico, where he remained for several months. He was in New Orleans at the time of Robert E. Lee's surrender, whereupon he returned to Texas. Hancock was a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1866 and was conspicuous in that body for his efforts in favor of reconciliation and the restoration of the Southern states to the Union. He declined nomination to Congress in 1870 but subsequently ran on the Democratic ticket and was elected to the Forty-second Congress; he served from 1871 to 1877. He returned in the Forty-eighth Congress, 1883–85. He supported the Indian peace policy of the Grant administration, which called for placing Indians on reservations under government supervision.
Hancock married Susan E. Richardson in November 1855. He was a member of the Episcopal Church. He died on July 19, 1893, in Austin, and was buried in Oakwood Cemetery.

Freehold (law)
In certain jurisdictions, including the UK's England and Wales and Scotland, a freehold (also called frank-tenement and franktenement) is the ownership of real property, being land[1] and all immovable structures attached to such land. This is opposed to a leasehold in which the property reverts to the owner of the land after the lease period has expired.[2] Immovable property includes land and all that naturally goes with it, such as buildings, trees or underground resources, but not such things as vehicles or livestock (which are movable).
A freehold estate could be transferable to the owner's "heirs and assigns" (successors by inheritance or "purchase" [including gift], respectively), in which case it was a "fee simple" estate. When transfer, by inheritance or otherwise, was limited to lineal descendants ("heirs of the body"/"heirs of the blood") of the first person to whom the estate was given, this was a "fee tail" estate. There were also freehold estates not of inheritance, such as an estate for life.
For an estate to be a freehold it must possess two qualities: immobility (property must be land or some interest issuing out of or annexed to land), and ownership of it must be of an indeterminate duration. If the time of ownership can be fixed and determined, then it cannot be a freehold.
A freeholder, or one who is in freehold, was therefore not a vassal.
- ^ Strictly speaking, all land in England, Wales and Scotland belongs to the Crown.[citation needed] Freehold is ownership of an estate in land rather than the land itself. This distinction dates back to the Middle Ages and makes relatively little difference nowadays, so legal authorities often do not bother to distinguish between ownership of the land and ownership of an estate.

In my search for the best Siri-like Android apps this one didn't want to come out and play with the rest of the candidates.
I tried to test this one on my HTC EVO, but each time I launched it it warned me that the speech recognizer was not present and text to speech may not work. I downloaded and installed a handful of "speech recognizer" applications and none of them helped with this issue. Strangely when I installed other siri-like apps they didn't have a problem.
When I went into the manual for this app it opened a very crammed website via the browser which was very difficult to navigate on my phone. I would suggest to the dev to make something that's easy to read on the devices that people will be using with this application.

There are an endless number of reasons to visit the magnetic city of New Orleans. This time, for me, there was one overpowering reason: experiencing the National World War II Museum.
Especially for a veteran, this is not the typical museum visit of getting a glimpse at works of art or passing view of some piece of culture. This is where one goes to get a gut-wrenching and mind-bending look at a part of our national anatomy that is so intrinsic to our sense of identity that it is both life changing and indelible.
It is possible my personal outlook on all this is colored by the fact I lived through the ...

By Mississippi State Dept. of Health
The Mississippi State Department of Health is confirming three newly diagnosed cases of Haff disease, a rare but serious illness caused by an unidentified toxin in buffalo fish that can cause a condition called rhabdomyolysis.
Rhabdomyolysis is a muscle injury syndrome that causes pain, stiffness and, rarely, kidney damage.
The three Mississippi cases are members of one family and are linked to the consumption of cooked buffalo fish harvested in Mississippi waters. They have since recovered. The fish in question came from the Yazoo River, but officials caution buffalo from any waters may carry the toxin. Cooking the fish has no impact on the likelihood of contracting the disease.
While these are Mississippi's first recorded cases, Haff disease has previously been associated with the consumption of buffalo fish in the United States. Since 1984, approximately 30 sporadic cases have been reported. Most cases occur in the summer months. So far, there have been no reported deaths linked to the disease in Mississippi or the U.S.
Symptoms, which typically occur within 12 hours of consuming the fish, include muscle weakness and pain, dry mouth, chest pain, nausea, vomiting, confusion and dark urine. Intravenous fluids and other treatments can help resolve symptoms. Severe symptoms typically resolve quickly although some patients complain of fatigue for months following acute stages of the illness. Individuals who develop the symptoms after the consumption of buffalo fish should seek immediate medical care.

Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo from the Disney film, Cinderella, 1950. Copyright Disney.
Salagadoola mechicka boola bibbidi-bobbidi-boo
Put 'em together and what have you got
Salagadoola mechicka boola bibbidi-bobbidi-boo
It'll do magic believe it or not
I do believe it.
I spent the majority of the last week with my family on a Disney cruise. (My poor children were crushed on our first night back home to discover that no one had created elaborate towel animals on their beds or left chocolates on their pillows!) We have cruised a bit in the past, but a "Disney cruise" is a completely different creature. Disney is not messing around – no one takes customer service more seriously. As the days moved on and memories piled up one on top of the next, like any good reflective practitioner, it occurred to me that it would be worth reflecting on what lessons might Disney have to offer me in my (not-with-mouse-ears) Jewish Day School Head's hat.
Let me begin by stating clearly that I am hardly the first or best one to think about this question. I am most familiar with my former American Jewish University (then University of Judaism) professor, Dr. Ron Wolfson's work in this arena. He is well-known for bringing students to Disneyland for a firsthand taste followed by reflection and application. [Click here for a brief article about Dr. Wolfson's work and here for his book, "The Spirituality of Welcoming: How to Transform Your Congregation Into a Sacred Community", where he shares his work in this area.] I am not sure how much I can add to the conversation, but when in Disney…
Cleanliness is next to Princess-liness
I have never seen a cruise ship, or even a large room, as meticulously groomed as the Disney Dream. Whether they were soaking up moisture on the pool deck in order to avoid slipping or polishing the brass railings at 11:30 at night, someone was always cleaning up something somewhere at sometime. Details are important and appearance does matter. Students are not employees, I realize, but I would like to see our student body take more pride in our school's appearance. It doesn't matter who you are or what role you play in the organization – caring about picking up litter, taking an extra half-second to clean your shoes on the way inside, not standing by while someone else damages property – pride shows through.
Everyone is a Greeter
This comes straight from Dr. Wolfson's work – it is a core Disney principle that each employee understands that they are a "greeter" first. For our school to truly embrace a "spirituality of welcoming" each student, teacher, parent, staff person, etc., would recognize that they have a responsibility to make everyone else feel welcome in our school. It extends well beyond greeting a stranger – imagine how much closer we would be towards becoming a true Community of Kindness (here, here and here) if we treated each other as someone deserving of the feeling of being truly welcome. Older students looking out for younger students. Teachers looking out for parents. Parents looking out for teachers. What struck me on the cruise is how clearly this cut across hierarchical lines – the maintenance person swabbing the deck and the captain of the dining room treated each of my daughters like true princesses. [Insert gratuitous photo here.]
Time is of the Essence
There is not a minute of wasted time on a Disney cruise. They have constructed a schedule to allow for a maximal experience. We certainly know the challenges of doing the same in a Jewish day school! I am finishing up presently a revised schedule for our Lower School and it has taken hours and hours and still isn't quite ready. [Spoiler Alert! It will for the first time make transparent hours of instruction dedicated to each subject. I think it will be a most positive surprise.] It is a worthy goal to make each moment of our Jewish day school be filled with maximum meaning.
Personal Navigation
This may be my favorite one (and one that I will likely think the most deeply about in the weeks to come). The Disney cruise line calls their daily schedule a "personal navigator" and I don't think it is simply a matter of semantics. They create a schedule which allows each customer to clearly identify which activities create the most meaning – activities for each demographic, activities for different lifestyles, activities that bridge and activities that winnow, etc. We would sit down as a family each evening to plan out the next day, factoring in the interests and abilities of our complete family – the four of us plus my wife's father and wife. The schedule was our invitation to take responsibility for meaning-making.
I talk a lot in my work about how the truest reflections of a school's values can be found in two places – the budget and the schedule. If you want to know what a school really believes to be important you need not go any farther than how it chooses to spend its money and its time.
As we continue to walk down the common paths of differentiation and 21st century learning, the answer to the question posed in Alan November's new book "Who Owns the Learning?" is obvious: The Student. If the student owns the learning, how does that impact what we teach, how we teach, when we teach, etc?
What would it mean to organize learning by the paradigm of personal navigation?
I hate to mix metaphors on a Friday afternoon, but as one moves from student to teacher to principal, one peeks behind the curtain and realizes that the Wizard is simply a person like anyone else. Similarly as to how one moves from camper to counselor to rosh at summer camp and one realizes how the magic is made. But it doesn't make the experience any less magical for the student or the camper just because there was a science behind the magic-making. My daughters' experience of the Disney Dream was magical even if I know how they did it.
I realize that creating a culture at our school that embraces these ideas will be harder than singing "bibbidi-bobbidi-boo". But if we could achieve them? Well that would be some real magic.

Issaquah swimmers soak Skyline, Bothell
December 21, 2010
Issaquah High School boys swimming coach Laura Halter doesn't want her swimmers to get bored racing the same event meet after meet, especially early in the season. So, Halter mixed up the lineup a bit Dec. 16 and as a result, the Eagles beat two teams at the Julius Boehm Pool.
Issaquah defeated rival Skyline 103-74 and Bothell 135-39 in the 4A KingCo Conference meet.
Issaquah and Skyline were scheduled to compete against each other earlier this month, but the meet was postponed because neither team was prepared since the snowstorm in late November had wiped out a week of practices.
Issaquah already had Bothell, which has a small squad this year, on the schedule and invited Skyline to make it a three-team event.
Issaquah swimmers were ready for a big meet.
"When it's Skyline, everyone wants to step up," Halter said. "The team really did."
Halter made a few alterations in the lineup.
"Early in the season, I want to make sure our swimmers, especially the more experienced ones, swim a variety of events," Halter said. "I wanted to mix it up a little bit. It worked out pretty well. What was fun was all our boys swam so well."

How to re-gift
December 21, 2010
So, Aunt Georgiana gave you another present that made you wince. Don't worry. If you are a novice re-gifter, here are several ways you can get rid of that 2002 version of "Madden," that Backstreet Boys' album or hideous sweater.
Give the gift to the homeless or a foster child. The Issaquah Food Bank and Issaquah's Friends of Youth always welcome donations during the holiday season and volunteers to make stockings for foster children. I can personally guarantee the gift you give away would be very appreciated by the recipient. So, cheer someone up and give it away.
Gift a friend you weren't going to give a gift to. This works in your favor because who knows? They may return the favor next year.
Gift a younger sibling. The other day a friend had given me a present at a white elephant exchange that I thought would have no significance (destination: trash can), but my sister saw it and boy, did she go ballistic over it.
Participate in a gift exchange or white elephant exchange. Gather a bunch of your friends and have everyone bring a wrapped gift worth about $10. Put the gifts in a pile and pull sticks to see who get to pick first and who goes last. To add a spin on it, if you don't want to take the risk and open a present, you could always take someone else's.
Appease your arch nemesis. The holidays are the perfect time to build bridges across rough terrain with your peers.

Last week, Connecticut lawmakers passed the ŌĆ£Homeless PersonŌĆÖs Bill Of RightsŌĆØ at the literal 11th hour ŌĆö 11:30pm on June 5th, one half hour before the legislative session ended. The bill, SB 896, a landmark piece of legislation to protect homeless individualsŌĆÖ rights, adds homeless people as a protected class who canŌĆÖt be discriminated against in employment, housing, or public accommodations. It also includes protections for homeless people to move freely in public spaces, such as parks and sidewalks, without being singled out for harassment by law enforcement officers.
Here are the billŌĆÖs seven protections:
(1) Move freely in public spaces, including on public sidewalks, in public parks, on public transportation and in public buildings without harassment or intimidation from law enforcement officers in the same manner as other persons;
(2) Have equal opportunities for employment;
(3) Receive emergency medical care;
(4) Register to vote and to vote;
(5) Have personal information protected;
(6) Have a reasonable expectation of privacy in his or her personal property; and
(7) Receive equal treatment by state and municipal agencies.
This is no symbolic victory, Michael Stoops, Director of Community Organizing at the National Coalition for the Homeless, explained. ŌĆ£Homeless people are regularly discriminated against in employment and housing,ŌĆØ Stoops told ThinkProgress.
Nate Fox, Project Supervisor for Faces Of Homelessness Connecticut, a group that advocated for the bill, hailed its passage. ŌĆ£Currently, there are certain civil liberties that could be automatically wiped out when you walked into a homeless shelter,ŌĆØ Fox told ThinkProgress. This bill not only fixes that unintended side effect of shelters and other homeless services, itŌĆÖs also ŌĆ£changed the conversation on how to protect homeless personsŌĆÖ rights,ŌĆØ Fox said.
The bill now awaits Gov. Dan MalloyŌĆÖs (D) signature before it can take effect at its scheduled date of October 1, 2013. It will not only play a major role in preventing discrimination against homeless people; it could also have an effect on municipalities like Hartford which currently have anti-loitering and anti-panhandling ordinances.
If it ultimately becomes law, Connecticut will become just the second state in the nation to enact a Homeless PersonŌĆÖs Bill of Rights. Last year, Rhode Island became the first state to do so. Illinois could increase the number to three if Gov. Pat Quinn (D) signs a bill which passed the legislature recently, and other states like Oregon and Delaware are considering similar legislation.

For the last 28 years, Green Bay has kicked off the holiday season with a downtown parade. Families sit, often in the same spot every year, to catch a glimpse of the marvelously decorated floats and musical talents marching through the city streets.
While the entertainment only lasts an hour and a half, the event would be nothing without the months of prep work from a dedicated team of volunteers.
The inspiration behind Green Bays holiday parade started when two downtown businessmen traveled with their families to Walt Disney World. Tom Kiedinger and Doug Schubert were amazed that the Florida parks had a parade every day and, at the time, Green Bay didnt even have a holiday parade. Upon their return, they assembled a committee to begin making plans to pull together a downtown parade.
The reason behind the parade continues to be two-foldto offer a community event and to connect people to downtown, adds Molly Vandervest, marketing and events manager for Downtown Green Bay and Olde Main Street. Downtowns holiday decorating contest coincides with the dates of the parade, so the city will be ready to show off to the thousands traveling to downtown.
The local businesses serve as a backdrop to the parade. People may come across a store and shop at it now or later, she said.
Next years parade planning begins about a month after the parade ends. A committee of 15 makes the parade decisions. Vandervest said, We get together and wrap up the event and pick the theme for next year so the people can start planning.
Vandervest fields parade calls all year long, but the preparations for the Time Warner Cable Green Bay Holiday Parade really kick into gear in August when they make the call for entries. Entries are on a first-come, first-served basis and are capped at 85 because of time constraints. Every year they have a waiting list.
Jeanette Newhouse, marketing events assistant for Downtown Green Bay, works with the entries and compiles the necessary paperwork. She makes certain the standards and quality of each entry meets the committees expectations.
Newhouse offers suggestions to participants to ensure each entry is as creative as possible. This years parade theme is Frozen Tundra.
Participants could use the theme and incorporate ice skating, a winter wonderland or do something with the Green Bay Packers, she said. They send pictures or drawings so we have an idea what the float will look like.
Participants are strategically placed; staging the entries requires much coordination. The committee ensures similar floats are spaced out, and horses are kept away from bands or noisy sirens.
Vandervest added, We want it to be a well thought-out, quality parade for our viewers. An estimated 40,000 people come downtown on parade morning. Countless others watch it on television.
Because the parade is televised, it adds to the complexity of the event. Vandervest writes the commentary. so she needs to know the precise placement and what each float is going to look like so what the TV announcer says matches what the cameras are showing.
While Vandervest, Newhouse and the committee handle the behind-the-scenes and strategic components of the parade, another 40 volunteers help pull off the event on parade day. Banner carriers, parade marshals and staging volunteers add to the magic.
The ultimate goal is that all 85 entries know where they need to line up so everything works like clockwork. It is a true test of communication, said Vandervest.
This year will be Vandervests sixth parade; Newhouses second. While their involvement has made a significant impact, some committee members have been part of the parade all 28 years.
A lot of the original committee members are still involved today, said Vandervest. Because so many have been part of the parade for so long this coming year, we are up to almost 200 years of combined years of experience.
Be sure to blow Mrs. Claus a kiss when you see her this yearshes one of the original volunteers.
People volunteer to help with the parade because when it is pulled off it is an amazing experienceits an hour and a half rush, said Vandervest.
It is very rewarding. And, it doesnt get old seeing the childrens faces in the crowd and knowing you are making special moments for the families that come out.

Tampa International Airport
Officials from Tampa International Airport took on an engineering challenge when they decided to spice up their parking garage with an eye-catching logo display.
"They were asking for some type of decorative glass signage of their logo [to] add some uniqueness to an otherwise bland structure—something high tech and interesting. And they wanted to do a structural glass wall," says Jeff Haber, managing partner for W&W Glass Systems Inc. in Nanuet, N.Y.
Airport officials and architects from Gresham Smith and Partners in Tampa chose a 30-foot-wide, 40-foot-tall structural glass wall system for parking garage, using more than 20 silk screens to create the logo on the glass, Haber says. "It's literally a decorative screen wall mounted to the face of the parking structure," he says.
W&W Glass engineered and fabricated the system, using laminated glass measuring about 5 feet by 7 feet. The units consist of a 6-millimeter Pilkington Optiwhite outer lite, a SentryGlas Plus interlayer and a 10-millimeter low-iron Pilkington Optiwhite inboard light. DuPont of Wilmington, Del., supplied the interlayer.
"This is a very interesting project because we used the Pilkington Planar integral fitting where the bolt is buried inside the inner layer," Haber says.
Stainless steel spider mount castings attach to two stainless steel pre-truss systems, fabricated by TriPyramid Structures Inc. in Westford, Mass. Pilkington Architectural of St. Helens, United Kingdom, fabricated the glass and the fittings.
Garrison Glass Co. of Tampa served as the contract glazier.

Via USA TODAY, the ancient underwater wreckage which housed a 2,000-year-old quasi-computer that cannot be explained likely contains more devices:
… Read the rest
Marine archaeologists report they have uncovered new secrets of an ancient Roman shipwreck famed for yielding an amazingly sophisticated astronomical calculator. An international survey team says the ship is twice as long as originally thought and contains many more calcified objects amid the ship's lost cargo that hint at new discoveries.
The wreck is best known for yielding a bronze astronomical calculator, the "Antikythera Mechanism" widely seen as the most complex device known from antiquity. The mechanism apparently used 37 gear wheels, a technology reinvented a millennium later, to create a lunar calendar and predict the motion of the planets, which was important knowledge for casting horoscopes and planning festivals in the superstitious ancient world.
Along with vase-like amphora vessels, pottery shards and roof tiles, the wreck appears to have "dozens" of calcified objects resembling compacted boulders made out of hardened sand resting atop the amphorae on the sea bottom.

Dale Earnhardt Jr., who won at Michigan in June, qualified 22nd on Friday. He has been consistent this season with 15 top-10 finishes to put him in fourth place in the Sprint Cup standings. / Jared C. Tilton/Getty Images
BROOKLYN, Mich. -- Dale Earnhardt Jr. received a confidence boost when he won at Michigan International Speedway in June.
"Getting over that hurdle, getting that first win does a lot to relieve you," he said during a news conference Friday afternoon before qualifying at MIS. He finished 22nd in his No. 88 Chevrolet. "I think if we were still winless, we would still feel a bit snakebitten, or somewhat cursed.
"That might mess your psyche a little bit, mess with you mentally. But once you do break through that barrier, it definitely gives you a reason to believe that you can do it again."
Snapping a 143-race winless streak showed Earnhardt is a legitimate contender to win the 10-race Chase. Earnhardt enters the NASCAR Sprint Cup Pure Michigan 400 on Sunday fourth in the season point standings (760).
Before the win two months ago, Earnhardt had not won since June 2008 at MIS.
"I didn't notice a huge difference, but I am not his teammate," Sprint Cup driver Matt Kenseth said of Earnhardt. "I just kind of talk to him a little each week at the track. I think it had to be a relief and a weight off his shoulders whether he says it was or not. I think all year he has seemed much more confident and happier at the track. You could see it coming. It was only a matter of time."
If Earnhardt wins Sunday, he'll become the first driver to sweep at MIS since Bobby Labonte in 1995.
Repeating won't be easy for a number of reasons.
Asked why it has been so long since a driver swept, Earnhardt said: "I would say that the track is really competitive, really wide. It allows for quite a bit of passing, so it is hard to dominate the race. There are a lot of variables that come in. Back when the races used to get swept, it was more about engines. Ernie Elliott and (Doug) Yates building power plants that would just come down here and whup everybody all year long. You don't see that quite as much. All the teams are quite equal. There's not a car out there that is dominating under the hood like they used to back when."
Earnhardt hasn't dominated in the win column, but he has been consistent this season. He has 15 top-10 finishes this season, one fewer than season point leader Jimmie Johnson, a five-time NASCAR champion and Earnhardt's Hendrick Motorsports teammate.
Johnson said Earnhardt is a legitimate contender for the title this season.
"I have three (wins) and I'm tied with a couple of other guys that have three," Johnson said. "Junior has one. So it's not that we're light years different in the win category."
If Earnhardt had a strategy for trying to win, he wasn't sharing.
"You just go out there and try to lead," he said. "Get to the front. If you aren't in the front, get to the front and pass the guy in front of you. Pretty simple. You run as hard as you can every lap."
Earnhardt said he was expecting the same setup as in June.
"All we did was wash the car," he said. "I don't think we even touched it since then. We've learned some things since the last race here that I think will help us and find us to be more competitive. I think we're a better and faster team even than we were in the trip here the first time."
If there's anything Earnhardt and crew chief Steve Letarte want to do more before the Chase begins Sept. 16 at Chicagoland Speedway, it's win more races.
"We need more bonus points so we can lead the points going into Chicago," Earnhardt said. "That gives the team a lot of confidence. We feel like we've been so strong this year, we are just a little shy in the win column for how we have performed throughout the year. If the wins want to wait, and come in during the Chase, that's fine with me, too.
"We want to win every opportunity we get out on the race track. We don't show up to lose. That's one of the things I think we'd like to have happen at least once before we get to the Chase. It might give our team a good boost, good momentum going in."

WASHINGTON: A US federal appeals court upheld Friday a multibillion-dollar settlement between BP and the coastal residents and businesses hit by the company´s massive Gulf of Mexico oil spill in 2010.
The British energy giant reached a $7.8 billion settlement in 2012 with thousands of claimants struck by the worst environmental disaster in US history.
But it had been challenging the way Patrick Juneau, a court-appointed administrator of claims, calculates companies´ compensation for lost profits.
The 5th US Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that US District Judge Carl Barbier was correct in rejecting a BP bid to require companies to prove that their losses were directly linked to the spill before getting a payout.
The plaintiffs were quick to hail the decision."Today´s ruling is an enormous victory for the Gulf, and an important step forward in ensuring that every eligible claimant is fully compensated according to the objective, transparent formulas spelled out in the settlement agreement that BP co-authored and agreed to," lawyers Steve Herman and Jim Roy said in a statement.
BP said it would weigh its options to press for clarification from the courts on the minimal requirements for plaintiffs to qualify for loss claims.
