She needs an immunization against cellulite.
That's just disgusting. If your ass and legs look like that you shouldn't be flaunting it on the beach. Jim Carrey is luck to have walked on that has been.
For a second I thought this was Granny ffrom the Beverly Hillbillies.
She needs to turn back around. The front looks 500x better than the back view.
I'm thinking she could stock an episode of Let's Make a Deal all by herself. From the front, she's the new car behind Door #1; then she can run to Door #2, turn around, and be the goat.
oh yeah, there's my mom, I couldn't tell from the front.
Yes please pose from the front as the back is looking like a train wreck! Get back to the gym!
Seriously, I'm guessing that most of the women posting here about the celulite look way worse than she does. And the guys that are posting about her backside – you're probably having to have sex with a woman that would make a billy goat puke.
Ain't that the truth!
Whats the matter Sue? Are you gettin all insecure about your cottage industry ass?
billy goat puke, LOL
A far cry from 1994″Playmate of the Year"
you are an idiot!, 1994!!!!! do you realize that this years playmate was probably an infant then?
So? What's your point?
A powers-you are a fucking retard.
point is… that people get old!!!!! DICK!
People get old, yes. But people don't have to get lazy. Running shoes & the gym were invented to ward off the effects of time.
and Youse, im sure you are 12 year old pimple faced dork.
She looks like she dropped a brownie in her trousy
None of you fuck-wads would never get a girl as hot as Jenny McCarthy, so you all need to shut your fucking mouths about how her body looks and go fuck that blow-up doll that your mom bought your loser ass for Christmas…kapeesh?
Learn to spell capice, douche-face.
Also, did you happen to notice the name of this site is… gasp… the SUPERFICIAL?
Saline is perfectly safe; not like mercury!
she has gained about 20lbs since she was dating jim carey.
when a woman says shes getting her implants removed, they usually mean REPLACED w. smaller implants. Like Pam Anderson did 10 -15years ago. they may pretend like theyre natural afterwards but theyre not. point being, she do es have the same implants she had with carrey, but the 20lb weight gain added to their volume
No thank you.
she's like a mullett….looks good from the front, but a mess from the back.
the SECOND i saw this pic I BARFED, LITERALLY,
i tried uploading a pic of my barf and this pic in the same shot but they wouldnt let me upload it here. lol freaking disgusting man, screw you jenni MC nasty!!
Typical for one of those 'want to be hot', 'inject myself with plastic', sub-standard women.
I'll bet I'd never see any cellulite when looking down at the top of her head…

DUBs constitute a class of isopeptidase that cleave ubiquitin from target proteins, including other ubiquitins. Other classes of isopeptidase perform the same function for ubiquitin-like proteins fused to their target proteins. Both conjugation and deconjugation of ubiquitin or ubiquitin-like proteins (UBLs) contribute to the maintenance of cellular homeostasis, the disruption of which can lead to disease. Accordingly, DUBs and UBL isopeptidases have been found to be overexpressed or dysregulated in a number of pathophysiologies (Mattern et al and Edelmann et al).
E3 ligases conjugate ubiquitin to specific target proteins, signaling changes such as directing them to the proteasome for degradation. In certain cases the E3 ligase receives ubiquitin from an E2 enzyme and transfers it to the target protein; in other cases it acts by interacting with both the E2 enzyme and the substrate but does not directly receive ubiquitin. Conjugation of ubiquitin to target proteins is essential to many key cell regulatory processes. There are approximately 600 different E3 ligases in the human proteome, many of which have been associated with various diseases (Mattern et al, 2014, in press, Mattern et al and Edelmann et al).
Since 2002 Progenra scientists have been working to understand the intricacies of the ubiquitin pathway to maximize discovery of new classes of molecules. The culmination of this work has led to the creation of a comprehensive toolbox termed the UbiPro™ Drug Discovery Platform for studying DUBs and E3 Ligases which we use to screen our diverse collection of >200,000 drug-like small molecules. There are three components to the UbiPro™ platform:
Biophysical assays
Traditionally, these assays are considered to be low throughput assays that are not amenable to HTS. However, Progenra scientists have successfully screened a number of therapeutically relevant DUB and E3 ligase targets against our compound collection in a HTS format using a biophysical assay. These assays also serve as ideal orthogonal assays for confirming hit compounds identified using alternative approaches.
Binding assays
The identification of small molecules that antagonize the interaction between a E3 ligase or a DUB and its substrate is a rational approach for the identification of potential therapeutic agents. Progenra has developed HTS compliant binding assays for identifying and evaluating ubiquitin pathway enzyme inhibitors.
Enzymatic assays
Progenra scientists have developed a range of different HTS ready DUB and E3 ligase activity assays. Progenra's DUB technologies utilize physiological substrates to identify selective small molecule inhibitors of DUBs. Additional technologies, such as DUBSelect™ have been created to minimize the identification of reactive molecules in the first round of high-throughput screening. Furthermore, our team has developed a series of novel E3 ligase autoubiquitylation and substrate ubiquitylation assays which have been used to identify specific small molecule inhibitors of E3 ligases. These assays take advantage of an ubiquitin binding domain's affinity for polyubiquitin chains, allowing for the analysis of ubiquitin chain formation; they have been used successfully with RING and HECT ligases (Marblestone et al).

Assessing the Vulnerability of Fish Stocks in a Changing Climate
What is the Fish Stock Climate Vulnerability Assessment?
NOAA Fisheries, in collaboration with the NOAA Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research - "Earth System Research Laboratory, is finalizing a methodology to rapidly assess the vulnerability of U.S. marine stocks to climate change. The methodology uses existing information on climate and ocean conditions, species distributions, and species life history characteristics to estimate the relative vulnerability of fish stocks to potential changes in climate.
Climate change is already impacting fishery resources and the communities that depend on them. Scientists are linking changes in ocean temperatures to shifting fish stock distributions and abundances in many marine ecosystems, and these impacts are expected to increase in the future.
To prepare for and respond to current and future changes in climate and oceans, fisheries managers and scientists need tools to identify what fishery resources may be most vulnerable in a changing climate and why certain fish stocks are vulnerable. By providing this information, the methodology will be able to help fisheries managers and scientists identify ways to reduce risks and impacts to fisheries resources and the people that depend on them. These kinds of climate change vulnerability assessments are increasingly being used to help assess risks to terrestrial and freshwater natural resources and man-made structures such as buildings and bridges.
What information will the methodology provide?
The methodology will provide fishery managers, scientists, and others with information they can use as they consider what additional scientific information is needed and how to adapt management strategies for those fish stocks. This will include information about which species in the region are most vulnerable or adaptable to environmental impacts of climate change.
The Fish Stock Climate Vulnerability Assessment is specifically designed to help:
(1) Identify which stocks may be most vulnerable with changing climate and ocean conditions;
(2) Identify what additional information is needed to understand and address these risks;
(3) Provide a basis for considering what actions might be taken to reduce fish stock vulnerability;
(4) Identify where more information is needed to understand, track, and respond to fish stock vulnerability. That information can then be used to help prioritize research, monitoring and modeling efforts.
NOAA Fisheries is planning to run the first application of the assessment methodology in the Northeast in March 2014.
Methodology for Assessing the Vulnerability of Marine Fish and Shellfish Species to a Changing Climate
What is the process for developing a Fish Stock Climate Vulnerability Assessment?
The chart below describes the process for developing a fish stock climate vulnerability assessment.
Caveats, Restrictions:
NOAA Fisheries will soon provide further background information on the assessment data requirements and implementation details. This methodology is only relevant for fish and invertebrate stocks.
For more information on NOAA Fisheries efforts related to the assessment methodology please contact firstname.lastname@example.com,

A frequently-asked question is, "Why do SPX and the VIX index move in opposite directions?"
The answer to this question is rooted in the nature of option trading that occurs on days when the market is down versus days when the market is higher. It seems that the "order flow" - the pace and types of orders that come into the marketplace - in SPX options is different on bullish days compared to bearish days.
Consider a day when SPX is declining. On such a day, market participants may be looking for ways to protect their portfolios against further market declines. Since purchasing SPX put options is an easy and effective hedging mechanism, the increased demand for SPX put options causes the relative price and, therefore, the implied volatility of these options in increase. Since the VIX index is a measure of SPX implied volatility, the VIX index moves higher because of this increase in demand for SPX put options.
Now consider the behavior of option market participants when the SPX is rising. SPX options traders do not seem to rush into buying SPX call options when the market is rising in the same way that they seem to plunge into buying puts when the market is falling. As a result, the order flow in SPX options on rising days seems to be more balanced between buyers and sellers. The result is steady or falling implied volatility of SPX contracts. And, again, since the VIX index measures this implied volatility, the VIX index tends to stay steady or decline on days when SPX rises.

Print Quality: Custom profiling
While we've been very pleased with prints using Canon's supplied profiles, there are areas that show some room for improvement. Skin tones are rendered with a bit of a red bias and there is a loss of some detail in areas of deep shadow. Overall our prints appeared darker and with a touch more contrast than what we saw from the digital file on our calibrated and profiled Apple 27 inch display.
Fortunately, these sorts of discrepancies point more towards unit to unit variation rather than a substandard printer. We took the opportunity to create custom ICC printer profiles ourselves using Canon's free Color Management Tool Pro software. For comparison, we also had custom-digital build additional custom profiles using two top-end profiling suites, i1Profiler and MonacoProfiler Platinum.
As you can see in the examples above, the most obvious difference between prints made using a canned profile versus a custom profile built from our specific printer lies in brightness. With both prints photographed under identical light levels, we found that the print made with the canned profile was approximately 10 L units darker at middle gray than the print made with our custom profile, which translates to roughly a 1/3 stop EV difference. And it was the print made with the custom profile which provided a more accurate screen-to-print match in color, brightness and contrast.
In addition, we found that our custom profile could successfully reproduce shadow detail that was completely blocked when using the canned profile, as the examples below demonstrate.
|The sample on the left was created with the Canon-suppplied profile. Shadow detail under the arch is non-existent. The sample on the right was created with a custom profile and reproduces shadow detail inside and above the arch that matches what we see onscreen with a calibrated and profiled display.
Profiling the printer
Profiling the printer with Canon's Color Management Tool Pro software is a straightforward affair. The software has a wizard interface that takes you through each step of the process. The software can create profiles for Pixma Pro9000 and 9500 series printers in addition to the Pro-1. It only supports spectrophotometers made by X-Rite though. Although Canon would not confirm when we asked, this limitation would seem to suggest that they have licensed the underlying profiling technology from X-Rite itself.
|Canon's profiling software generates a 731-patch target that prints on two consecutive sheets of A3 (11 x 17 inch) paper.
After letting the prints dry, you simply scan the patches with a spectrophotometer and the software generates and saves the profile to the appropriate location on your hard drive. We find the quality of these profiles to be very good. While top-flight (and expensive) profiling software offers more customizeable options, the differences in print output when comparing RGB profiles made with Canon software versus those made with X-Rite and Monaco offerings were minimal in our real world samples.
Performance specifics
Once our specific printer behavior was characterized via a custom profile, the performance of the Pro-1 took a noticeable step forward in several areas. It was at this point we felt that we were truly taking advantage of what this printer has to offer.
One area of interest to print enthusiasts is the maximum density of black that can be achieved with pigment-based inks. With the Pro-1 we printed patches of L 0 (maximum black), measured the output with a spectrophotometer and achieved an impressive Dmax of 2.52 on glossy paper. By comparison, a well made darkroom silver gelatin print rarely exceeds a Dmax of 2.0. Matte papers, of course will yield weaker blacks. On Moab's Entrada Rag Natural 190 we measured a Dmax of 1.62, which is quite good, well in line with what we've seen from Epson's pigment ink printers on similar papers.
What we found even more impressive, however, was the neutral rendition of gray tones. A solid patch of gray set at a luminance of L 50 in Photoshop was sent to the printer and on glossy paper the output was measured with a spectrophotometer at L 50, a -1, b-1.4. That's about as close to a neutral middle gray as you can reasonably expect to print.
Fine Art Papers
With the Pro-1, Canon has made a strong effort to encourage the use of third party fine art papers. A list of companies which have made Pro-1 profiles available for its media is displayed on Canon's web site. In addition, Canon has made available for download a bundled collection of profiles for popular fine art papers from Canson, Hahnemühle and Moab and others. These profiles - unlike the ones on the paper manufacturers' sites - are made by Canon, have been 'quality-tested' and qualify for Canon technical support.
Indeed, in more than one instance, we have found the profiles developed by Canon to be noticeably superior. So it pays to see if your favorite paper has a profile included here before visiting the paper maker's site. Of course, if you have a spectrophotometer, you can get even better performance from the Pro-1 by making your own profiles.
|The sample above is from a print made on Hahnemühle's Photo Rag Baryta 310. We used a custom profile built with MonacoProfiler Platinum. Image courtesy of Tyler Boley at custom-digital.
|In both of these crops you can see that color transitions are rendered smoothly, with no abrupt color breaks or abnormal color shifts as the inks transition from light to dark tones.
The smooth tonal transitions you see in the samples above are very impressive. You can distinguish subtle and natural-looking gradations without hard-edged demarcations between hue and luminance transitions. In this regard, the Pro-1 exceeds output quality of some of Canon's recent large format printers like the imagePROGRAF iPF6300.

iPhone Geocaching
Update 08/11/2008:
It seems lately that this topic is getting alot more attention. Somehow this blog post is #1 on google for the term [iphone geocaching] and I'm seeing alot of traffic for this term. There are still no good solutions as best as I can tell. I'm pretty interested in watching this space though, so I've created a knol to follow all of the current options. I'll keep the knol updated with any changes, so if you are interested bookmark or visit iPhone Geocaching on Knol.

I figured out a good solution this weekend, at least it's the best I can come up with until an actual GPX viewer for iPod touch comes out.
You can use Safari to load the html output from GSAK (or whatever program you use to convert GPX -> HTML) and browse it that way. I get around the Mobile Safari limitation of not being able to load local html files by installing apache (in Installer.app under Network) and putting the html files from GSAK into the doc root for apache. Then I just setup a Mobile Safari bookmark to point to http://127.0.0.1 to browse the files

That sounds halfway decent, although I'll admit I don't quite understand how to install apache (maybe that option is only available on ipod touch or "hacked" iphones).
Another option I've seen is http://m.cmiyc.com/, but so far it really sucks - it is quite slow and doesn't offer any good way to navigate a list of caches.

Yes, you have to jailbreak the iPod Touch / iPhone to install apache.

Try http://wap.geocaching.com/.
Bare bones but loads fast on my iPhone, and is less likely to choke when the connection is weak.

You do not need Apache, you can just install 1.1.3/4 Safari Patch to have file:// working (for example file:///tmp/html/geocaching.html)
Patch is here and info is here

I like the wrapper. It looks a lot better and is easier to work with, but there's no greater functionality. That's not your fault though. It would be nice to see something optimized for the iPhone. Browsing around static wap text pages just isn't the same.

Relational Argues Vote to Split Timken Carries No Risk
Subscriber Content Read Preview
Subscriber Content Read Preview
An activist fight over industrial conglomerate Timken Co. is giving shareholders a somewhat rare chance to vote on splitting the company up.
Activists Relational Investors have teamed up with pension giant the California State Teachers Retirement System, or Calstrs, to argue that Timken should split itself into two — a ball bearings and a steel company. The duo is expected to release another letter Wednesday pitching its case again for eliminating the "conglomerate discount" at Timken. They argue a yes vote carries "no downside."
The letter, which was reviewed by Deal Journal, argues the method by which the shareholders have launched their fight presents a care-free choice to Timken shareholders. The shareholder proposal being voted on is a non-binding resolution that the board should split the company. If shareholders vote yes, the board will explore the option further and can then decide whether or not to proceed, the activists argue. A no vote could send shares down, they add.
Timken counters that splitting the company won't boost shareholder values. The company says the steel business supplies the bearings business and the two save costs and fosters research. Timken believes it has a long-term strategy that will perform better.
"The shareholder proposal … that you are being asked to vote on would derail our strategy and deprive shareholders of the opportunity for long-term value," Timken told investors last week in a letter.
Ralph Whitworth has made a career getting seats on boards and making dramatic changes.
The 57-year-old activist investor is now taking on a role he's held much less regularly in the 17-years since he started Relational Investors LLC: Chairman.
WSJ is reporting Thursday that Mr. Whitworth will take over as chairman of Hewlett-Packard Co. as its current chairman Ray Lane is stepping down. Mr. Whitworth is standing in while a search goes on for a permanent replacement.
Mr. Whitworth over the years has taken on some of the biggest corporate titans and his agitating has helped oust chief executives such as Robert Nardelli from Home Depot Inc. and Gary Forsee of Sprint Nextel Corp.
In total, he's served on 11 boards in his career including pharmaceutical company Genzyme Corp., northeast regional bank Sovereign Bancorp and toy maker Mattel Inc. At this moment, he is only serving on H-P's board.
His strategy has been to build stakes, often only 1% of outstanding shares, and fight his way onto the board, where he can influence plans. In H-P he held a 1% stake that hadn't even been publicly disclosed when he joined the board in late 2011, only shortly after the computer maker changed CEOs.
Only twice Mr. Whitworth has taken the role of chairman.

In case Hess Corp. thought it may have won over one of the investors pushing for change at the oil company, it was wrong.
Relational Investors LLC principal David Batchelder told the oil company's CEO, John Hess, in a letter Thursday that his firm intends to support a slate of five new directors proposed by hedge-fund manager Elliott Management Corp. Relational owns about 2.7% of Hess shares. The letter came after Relational had gotten wind there was some potential confusion on its position.
Elliott wants Hess to split into two companies: one focused on extracting oil and natural gas from U.S. shale formations and another involved in international exploration. Elliott has proposed a slate of new directors that includes former Anadarko Petroleum Corp. executive Karl Kurz, former BP America CEO Rodney Chase and former American Express CEO Harvey Golub.
Hess, which has said it will sell billions of dollars worth of assets and focus on exploration and production, has rejected the call to split in two. The company has proposed its own slate of six new directors, including former CBS Corp. Chief Financial Officer Frederic Reynolds, former Deloitte CEO James Quigley and John Krenicki Jr., the former head of General Electric Co.'s energy unit.
Relational Investors has another new target: Esterline Technologies Corp.
The activist has a 6.6% stake in the aerospace manufacturer, and has now filed a document saying they are going to push for a sale of the company.
The filing says the stock is undervalued and Relational lists several possible reasons why, including poor use of capital and overpaying for acquisitions. Relational also takes issue with "inadequate disclosure and communications with analysts and institutional investors" and "an executive compensation plan that includes a return on invested capital measure which is 25% lower than the Company's weighted average cost of capital."
Noted activists Relational Investors didn't just add PepsiCo to its holdings, according to its most recent 13F filing.
It has also added new stakes in Western Union and retailer Abercrombie & Fitch.
The fund looks likely to make some noise about splitting up Pepsi, as colleague Gina Chon broke earlier, and took a new position worth about $600 million.
The fund revealed it holds nearly 17 million shares in Western Union, which would be worth about $290 million as of the end of Tuesday. The 2.1 million shares of Abercrombie that were added would be worth about $95 million.
Relational's filing also shows eliminations of holdings in Ameriprise Financial, Intuit, the Babcock & Wilcox Co. and Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold.
PepsiCo shares are getting a bump as colleague Gina Chon reports that activists Relational Investors LLC are getting involved in the beverage and snack giant.
Chon writes:
Some frustrated investors called several months ago for a possible split up of the company's beverage and stronger-performing snacks businesses. But that sentiment cooled after Mrs. Nooyi took several steps to improve the company's performance. PepsiCo announced in February it is slashing 8,700 jobs and boosting its marketing budget in 2012 by as much as $600 million.
Relational Investors, a San Diego based activist shareholder known for taking stakes in companies it believes need to boost shareholder value or improve corporate governance, is expected to disclose that it has acquired a stake in PepsiCo valued at around $600 million. The holding is relatively small, at about 0.6% of PepsiCo's outstanding shares, but a large one for the San Diego-based investment firm. PepsiCo has a market capitalization of about $105 billion.
Pepsi shares are now up 1.6% in recent trading at $68.23.
The company has faced plenty of speculation about whether it spin-off its snack business, but has done its best to quiet those talks, even as other food rivals have gone that way, notably Kraft, Ralcorp and Sara Lee.
And Relational is no stranger to pressuring companies to change. Ralph Whitworth, Relational's boss, is best known for pushing for big changes at Home Depot, Occidental Petroleum and Genzyme.
Activist investor Relational Investors is yet again trying to shake up a chip company.
Relational and its boss, Ralph Whitworth, are best known for pushing for big changes at Home Depot, Occidental Petroleum and Genzyme. And Relational just disclosed it bought a 7.17% stake in PMC-Sierra, a chip company with a roughly $1.3 billion market value.
By Bob Tita
Illinois Tool Works said Friday that it had reached a pact with an activist investor, a move that could cool calls for the breakup of one of the most diversified U.S. conglomerates.
The Glenview, Ill., company reached a deal with Relational Investors that would allow the investor to nominate a board member in return for refraining from launching any proxy battle to redirect strategy and keeping its stake below 10%.
ITW runs more than 800 disparate businesses and has faced increasing pressure from shareholders and analysts alike to divest a significant portion of its portfolio, part of a wider Wall Street unease about conglomerates that has led to a number of break-ups.
As our colleague Gina Chon reported, Relational Investors wants to push a break up of defense firm L-3 Communications. And while Relational isn't a household name, the investment firm has a long history of shaking up major corporations.
Here is a look at the firm and its track record:
Who: Relational Investors, based far from the Wall Street scrum in sunny San Diego, is run by Ralph Whitworth.
Carrying a law degree from Georgetown University, Whitworth has a background in the energy industry and was on the staff of the Senate Judiciary Committee before staking his own firm in 1996. Whitworth envisioned Relational as a fund that would buy big slugs of underperforming companies and then rattle cages for changes that would lift the companies' fortunes.
Previous Prey:
Deal Journal has called this trend multiple times. But if you needed any more proof that "activist" investors — the pushy blokes who used to be called "corporate raiders" — are in the driver's seat, look at today's break up of ITT.
The breakup of ITT into three parts, announced today, helped avoid a proxy fight with Ralph Whitworth, according to Deal Journal colleagues Gina Chon and Anupreeta Das. Whitworth is the well known investor who has helped shake up management at Sovereign Bancorp and Home Depot in prior crusades.
ITT said the company had weighed a breakup for six months, and the announcement today wasn't the result of investor pressure. Still, Whitworth's track record gives him a big stick to force change at companies in which he owns a stake — a familiar pole position for his ilk.
Fellow activist Bill Ackman recently joined hands with Fortune Brands to encourage that company to split up. Carl Icahn, the dean of the activists, now is slated to buy energy firm Dynegy after he helped kill a proposed takeover Icahn said was too cheap. And Whitworth himself teamed up with Calsters to force pay cuts for Occidental Petroleum's CEO. That's an impressive scorecard.

In case you haven't seen or heard about Lane Kiffin's recent appearance on ESPN, here is the main point of what the Trojans head coach said regarding the lawsuit filed against him and USC by the Tennessee Titans:
"I don't picture it as Jeff (Fisher) suing us. It is a lawsuit, so I can't comment very much on it. I feel very good, after a conversation with Jeff Fisher, that he now understands exactly what took place and I think he feels better about it."
Kiffin was asked if his departure from the Tennessee Volunteers perhaps played a role in the Titans' decision to file a suit. "It's a lawsuit. I can't comment on it," Kiffin said.

WETHERSFIELD, Conn. — Older school buses in the state are still required to have crossing arms, despite legislation passed earlier this year that was intended to exempt them.
Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) Commissioner Robert Ward ruled that the legislation — aimed at exempting model year 2006 and older school buses from a DMV regulation requiring crossing arms on all school buses — was ineffective.
The DMV regulation was issued last year, with a deadline of Sept. 1, 2008, to retrofit the older buses with the device, which extends from the front bumper to prevent children from crossing the street too close to the bus.
The Connecticut School Transportation Association (COSTA) opposed the regulation, arguing that crossing arms retrofitted onto older school buses regularly malfunction.
"In the winter, with the road salts getting in there, they break down," COSTA Executive Director Bill Moore said in an interview. "In Connecticut, that puts a bus out of service."
The legislation that was then introduced and passed had been agreed upon by Moore, a state senator and the DMV's legal counsel. The parties had settled on this text to achieve the desired exemption:
"Each school bus that is model year 2007 or newer shall be equipped with a crossing control arm mounted on the right front bumper."
Responding to an inquiry from Sgt. Garfield Green, the state pupil transportation director, Ward wrote that the legislation "simply provides a mandate on certain model year buses." The legislation was not clear in its attempt to exempt older buses, Ward wrote.
Moore said that COSTA members were "outraged" by Ward's decision.
"When the legislation was enacted, we assumed that the DMV would stand up to the commitment it made through its chief legal counsel, which was, 'Yes, this is the language that will satisfy the problem,'" Moore said. "So, naturally, we informed our members. Then we were stunned to find out that the DMV was walking away from the agreement."
COSTA's subsequent efforts to change Ward's mind were unsuccessful. The association advised school bus operators to proceed with retrofitting buses with crossing arms by Sept. 1.
However, Ward did say that he would "entertain petitions from individual bus companies if a legitimate concern about inability to comply is presented."
Moore said that some operations took Ward up on that offer, and he was aware of at least one that was granted a delay until mid-October.
Otherwise, Moore said he believed that operations were able to meet the deadline, although it was "a scramble" for many of them to secure the funding and the equipment itself after learning that Ward had overruled the exemption.

Citigroup shareholders: 'No' on proposed executive pay
A sign is displayed on the exterior of a Citibank branch office on January 18, 2011 in San Francisco, Calif.
Stacey Vanek Smith: Citigroup shareholders said 'no dice' to a hefty pay package for senior executives, including a $15 million salary for Citigroup's CEO.
John Dimsdale has more on the symbolic vote.
John Dimsdale: Fifty-five percent of Citigroup's shareholders either voted no, or abstained, in yesterday's "say on pay" tally. Pandit's $15 million may be lavish, but it's less than the pay for several other big Wall Street banks.
Charles Elson, a corporate governance professor at the University of Delaware, says the shareholder vote reflects dissatisfaction with Citigroup's poor performance, rather than a grassroots national movement.
Charles Elson: I don't see this as trend where, "Oh, we're going to vote against pay all over the country," because the numbers don't bear that out. Most of these resolutions pass pretty significantly. But there is significant discontent where you see poor results and what is perceived to be high compensation.
While the bank's not obligated to take back any pay as a result of this non-binding vote, board members say they're taking it seriously and will discuss salary modifications.
In Washington, I'm John Dimsdale for Marketplace.

Grand Junction, Colo. (KKCO) – The federal government has given Colorado and 14 other states $67 million to help with recovery from last year's forest fires. Colorado will receive $19 million in wildfire relief.
It's a reminder of how devastating wildfires can be and how brave the crews are that battle the blaze. Right now officials are getting ready for the fire season that is upon us.
The firefighters are training with hand tools, chainsaws, field equipment and hoses, and air support crews are checking the mechanics on the airplanes and getting organized for the fire season.
The crews that fight the fires are reminded that there is a degree of risk that comes with their job. Each summer on July 6, the firefighters pause for a moment of silence remembering the 14 firefighters that lost their lives fighting the Storm King Mountain Wildfire in Canyon Creek.
Officials say they need the public's help in locating fires this season. If you see a fire, it's important to call the Bureau of Land Management at 970-244-3000 or 911 as soon as you can.

Terry Owens, San Diego Chargers Tackle
November 6th, 2012 | Published in Player Deaths
Terry Owens, a tackle for the San Diego Chargers from 1966 to 1975, passed away on October 27. His obituary on the Shelton Funeral Home web site includes a recent photo and a summary of his career. Owens suffered from dementia, which his wife, Alison, described on Dave Pear's blog.
At Jacksonville State University, Owens starred at both football and basketball. He was inducted into the school's Hall of Fame in 1975.
The two cards pictured here are Owens's rookie card, a 1973 Topps, and his 1975 Wonder Bread card. He also appeared on a 1972 Sunoco stamp, a 1974 Topps card, and a 1975 Topps card.

Talk to people about your feelings. Surround yourself with friends and family.
Get back to a normal routine, if possible. Do the things that you're used to in life that provide balance.
Stay positive. Think of the solution, not the problem.
Eat as healthy as possible. Try to stay away from refined sugars.
Stay active. Physical activity helps relieve stress.
Take time to relax. Read a good book. Don't overindulge in news coverage of storms. Just make sure you stay informed to pertinent information. But remember: Your rest is important, both for the mind and body.
If you feel overwhelmed and can't escape the anxiety, seek professional help.
Children: What to tell the kids after the storm
To keep children from feeling that you will leave them, take them with you if you need to look for shelter or emergency supplies.
Encourage children to talk about their feelings about the hurricane.
If children refuse to talk about their feelings, this may mean they are afraid to relive the experience. Talking to others about the storm in front of children may encourage them to talk.
Children who behave unusually for more than two weeks after the storm may need counseling.

Pundits are scratching their heads over Saturday's surprise announcement that Google had bought weblog publishing heavyweight Pyra Labs, but a look at the big picture reveals some intriguing scenarios for "Bloggle's" future.
Google's success has largely been attributed to an obsessive focus on search. While other search engines succumbed alluring gewgaws, transforming themselves into portals, Google's mission has always been to "organize the immense amount of information available on the web."
So why would Google buy Pyra Labs, developer of the widely-used Blogger and Blogspot web self-publishing system? Is Google "selling out" to the urge to become a portal? Are they morphing into a content provider? Are they losing their laser-like focus on search? No, to all of the above.
This isn't the first time Google has purchased a web "community." Google purchased the Deja Usenet newsgroup archives in February 2001, and now runs them as "Google Groups." The interactive, often self-referential nature of many weblogs has many similarities to newsgroup postings.
Yet Google has said little about the Pyra deal, issuing a sparse 77 word statement to the media with few clues about the rationale behind the purchase:
"Google recently acquired Pyra Labs, developers of Blogger -- a self-service weblog publishing tool used by more than one million people. We're thrilled about the many synergies and future opportunities between our two companies. Blogs are a global self-publishing phenomenon that connect Internet users with dynamic, diverse points of view while also enabling comment and participation. In the coming weeks, we will report additional details. Blogger users can expect to see no immediate changes to the service."
Though this statement says little directly, it's possible to infer a few of the "synergies and future opportunities" between Google and Pyra Labs.
First, Pyra has over 1 million registered users, with about a quarter of those actively publishing weblogs. For the most part, these blogs are ad-free, offering an appealing distribution channel for Google's AdWords text based ads.
Second, Google could use the links created by webloggers to enhance its news service. Even though Google's news crawlers are constantly updating Google News' 4,000 sources of information, alternative internet sources are gaining a reputation for breaking important news stories more quickly than traditional media sources.
For example, the New York Times reported that the first hint of problems that doomed the space shuttle Columbia appeared on an online discussion eleven minutes before the Associated Press issued its first wire-service alert.
Intriguingly, news of Google's Pyra acquisition was broken by San Jose Mercury News tech journalist Dan Gillmor on his weblog, moments before Pyra CEO Evan Williams "announced" the news to the audience at the "Live from the Blogosphere" event via a projected screen from the presentation laptop -- by clicking a link to Gillmor's weblog!
Skeptics wonder why Google would need to buy Pyra to have access to these blogs, since most are accessible to Google's crawler anyway. This is true, though by hosting Pyra's "Blogspot" service, Google can theoretically index weblogs in virtually real time, and remove the burden from Pyra's much smaller servers.
Apart from these potential benefits to Google, it seems to me that there are several other less-obvious reasons Google might be interested in weblogs and the Blogger technology.
Though weblogs are often compared to the frequently introspective and self-focused personal web pages hosted by Geocities or Angelfire, most weblogs are far more interactive, actively commenting on and linking to other web content. This commentary and linking behavior offers several potential benefits to a search engine like Google.
Weblog entries are often concise, pithy abstracts of other web content. In that sense, they function as an enhanced directory listing, of sorts.
Currently, Google and all other search engines look at the text surrounding a link to infer content of the page the link points to. With weblogs this text is often much more "focused" and can offer much more context about a page that's pointed to.
We've already seen Google experimenting with letting you see what the web "says" about pages, through its experimental "Webquotes" project available in Google Labs. Weblog postings could be a natural way to enhance these "quotes," potentially improving search results.
Other potential "synergies" between Google and Pyra: personalization and geolocation. While I don't want to speculate too much without first talking with Google (spokesperson David Krane declined to comment), it's interesting to consider ways that the Blogger tools could be integrated with other acquisitions previously made by Google.
In September, 2001, Google purchased Outride, a spinoff from Xerox Parc which was developing tools for discovering web content based on personal interests and behavior. Speaking to the New York Times, Pyra CEO Evan Williams offered a tantalizing glimpse of the possible: "As blogs have taken off, one of the biggest points of pain has been finding what you want to read. What if you could search blogs in real time?"
Or, perhaps, get recommendations based on the personalization technology Google acquired from Outride?
A recent trend with weblogs has been geolocation: publishing the coordinates of the blog author. Last year's Google Programming Contest winner created a geographic search program that enables users to search for web pages within a specified geographic area. Another potential "synergy?"
Speculation aside, Google's acquisition of Pyra Labs is a good thing, both for the search engine and for the weblog community. Google may gain some of the advantages noted above. From the blog community's standpoint, Pyra CEO Evan Williams sums it up nicely: "I was only convinced after brainstorming with our people and their people about why and how we could do much cooler things for our users and the web at an incredibly large scale by being part of Google."
Time to say hello to "Bloogle?"

SearchDay, June 14, 2001

Turkey purges judges, prosecutorsComment on this story
Istanbul - Turkey's government on Tuesday removed 166 prosecutors and judges as it stepped up a purge of the judiciary in response to a high-level graft probe, local media reported.
Those sacked included senior prosecutors in the capital Ankara, Istanbul and the western city of Izmir, the Hurriyet daily said on its website.
Since the scandal broke in mid-December, the government has sacked thousands of police Ä some 6,000 nationwide according to media estimates Ä prosecutors, judges and senior lawyers involved in the investigations into alleged money laundering, gold smuggling and bribery.
A further 85 senior police officers were sacked in Istanbul this week alone.
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused supporters of exiled Turkish preacher Fethullah Gulen, who wields influence in the judiciary and police, of launching the probe as part of a "coup plot" against his government in a crucial election year.
But the purges, coupled with legislation aimed at increasing government control on the judiciary and the Internet, have raised deep concern at home and abroad about the state of democracy in the country.

EDUCAUSE members also benefit from tools and techniques that enable them to deliver high quality academic programs and support services in a flexible manner. The strategic use of information technology can enhance student engagement, improve access, and make services more convenient. As IT is integrated into the academic enterprise, a number of other issues are raised such as financing, policies, faculty involvement, and assessment.
We encourage you to explore EDUCAUSE's resources on teaching and learning. These include the work of our members as well as material contributed from EDUCAUSE's strategic initiative, the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative. We hope you will find the material of use and encourage you to contribute to future EDUCAUSE activities in teaching and learning.

Footprint Features CEO Adam Saunders (middle) with actor Max Minghella (left) and About Alex director Jesse Zwick (right). / Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images
The ways in which we consume movies are changing. Since its beginnings, the film industry has always been at the forefront of technological revolutions, able to keep up with the changing tides. Yet, never before has there been a period of such rapid change with such a yawning schism from old to new. Hollywood studios continue to put all their money into summer tent poles while an increasingly large number of films and filmmakers look elsewhere, to independent sources, in order to make it to the silver screen (or your TV screen, or your computer, or your iPad ).
The FSView was lucky enough to grab a quick chat with the CEO of one such independent production company, Adam Saunders of Footprint Features. He dished to us on the realities of the system today, as well as Footprints new film, the Aubrey Plaza-starring About Alex.
Ryan Brown: As someone whos attending the film school down here in Florida, and about to enter that industry itsyou knowits little production companies like you guys that are saviors to independent film right now.
Adam: Wow, thank you.
RB: In your eyes, whats the role of these production companies in the current industry, especially now that everythings kind of in flux?
Adam: You know, its a great time to be an independent film producer because the studios are moving further and further to tentpoles. Theyre kind of leaving room in the middle, so youve got these micro budget filmmakers or young student filmmakers that are making films for $1,000 or $2,000, you know, because technology is so cheap these days.
And what it does allow, for people like us, is to make movies in this under $10 million dollar range that to an audience feels just like a real Hollywood movie. Its got actors that they recognize and like, but it doesnt cost $100 million to make. So theres a way to monetize them and hopefully make a return thats nice for our investors. I think it has created an opening in the market because its an area that used to be served by the studios, and now is no longer.
RB: And thats great, obviously, but do you think theres a risk of over-saturation because its cheaper to make these films and get them out there? When its affordable enough that anyone can make a movie, how do you ensure what youre about to rent is going to be, you know, good?
Adam: I think thats why its so important to establish a brand. Theres such a glut of content out thereI think the way you can cut through it is if you make a quality product and people start to recognize the brand. Which is the hopeOh, Footprint, I know that name, I know that logo, I know that company, like the way you would do with a bigger company. You know its something of a certain caliber. Thats our goal at Footprint, to establish that trust with the audience.
RB: And looking at your guys website, even for a small company, you guys are very open. Youre accepting screenplays, youve got an email system set up straight to you on thereis that a you guys just starting up kind of thing, or is that a general policy and outlook that you want Footprint to have?
Adam: Listen, if you send Mark Cuban an email right now, he will write you back. That guy is a billionaire, who runs a bunch of companies, owns the Mavericks, and hes on Shark Tankif that guy can do it, I can do it too. Its a model that I respect, which is just being open. Were entertainers, our whole job is to reach the audience. So I dont think it behooves us to create a brick wall between us and the people were trying to serve.
RB: And you dont get to see that philosophy a lot, so thats wonderful. So your next film, About Alex, is out now on Video on Demand services, and, theatrically too, is that correct?
Adam: Yeah it opens in 12 cities, nationwide and Canada, and hopefully well keep on expanding from there. You guys are in Florida, so I know it opens in Orlando.
RB: Tell me a little about how [director] Jesse Zwick and his script ended up on your desk.
Adam: I knew Jesses father, and he sent the script my way and said What do you think? and I loved it, I loved it and I said Please let me make this. And Jesse shopped it around a little but I think he came to us because of our assurance that we would see it through and get it made. And now were here a couple years later, and its done, and I think we all feel really great about it.
RB: What stood out to you about the story that made you so eager to help make it?
Adam: You know, its very character driven, its got these several different fantastic characters that each have their own arc, each one is thoughtful and honest, and really felt like a real person. And I also thought thematically that, social mediahow it affects our friendships, how we may think we know things about them that we dont, I had never read anything or seen anything that addressed it as effectively as this script did. It was beautiful, it was timely, it was funny, it had a lot of things going for it, and I really liked Jesse, so I thought he would be a fun guy to work with.
RB: And the film has an amazing ensembleAubrey Plaza, Max Greenfield, Max Minghellahow did these guys end up getting attached to the film?
Adam: I think its a testament to Jesses script. I mean, we had fantastic casting directors too, but they read it and talked to us, and I think they responded to it. We certainly got lucky with our cast, and theyre all really amazing in the film. I think the film is the best version of itself it could possibly be. Im certainly very proud of it.
RB: Whats up next for you guys at Footprint?
Adam: Our next movie is going to be called When We First Met, and its something of (500) Days of Summer meets Groundhog Day, and thats being directed by a guy named Jamie Travis who did For A Good Time Call
RB: Which was written by some FSU alums!
