Corn, soy harvest to get back on track, forecaster says
After minimal slowdowns this weekend due to rains in some sections of the country, the U.S. corn and soybean harvest is expected to get back on track in the 6- to 10-day outlook, forecasters say.
The weekend saw limited harvest delays as light showers occurred across northern Minnesota, Wisconsin, northern Illinois, and western Michigan
"This week will be a period of transition across the central U.S.," MDA EarthSat Weather reported Monday. "Temperatures will start out the week well above normal, but will end well below normal.
"Some snow is even expected across eastern CO and far southwestern NE. Light rains showers are expected across WI, MI, northern IN, and northern OH early this week. Showers will become heavier and more widespread across the southern and eastern Midwest on Wednesday and Thursday, slowing the corn and soybean harvest," wrote Kyle Tapley, MDA EarthSat Weather meteorologist.
"Temperatures will warm during the 6-10 day period and fairly dry weather is expected in most
areas, which should favor harvesting."

The campaign literature sent by state Sen. Greg Ball is nothing short of scurrilous! A recently received flier twists the truth to claim that Ball's opponent Justin Wagner's principled stand for good government reform is somehow wrong and corrupt!
Justin Wagner stands for campaign finance reform in order to put the focus in elections back onto real citizens and voters - not lobby groups, huge corporations and ultra-wealthy donors. The mailing claims that Justin Wagner wants to divert taxpayer money to run his own campaign and, oddly, tries to link Wagner, a first-time candidate and lifelong Hudson Valley resident, with a bunch of scandals from years ago involving crooked New York City politicians who have nothing to do with Wagner.
Recently he's been making a big deal about ending wage inequality. Ball twice voted against actual fair pay legislation!
The voters of the 40th state Senate District deserve more than Sen. Ball's constant untruths and obfuscations.

USA Pro Challenge
For more information on road closures and the USA Pro Challenge route, visit www.windsorgov.com/usaprochallenge
Front Range Wine Festival
Where: 300 Locust St.
When: 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday
Swarms of cyclists will descend on Windsor on Saturday, causing excitement and road closures as part of Stage 6 of the USA Pro Challenge, which starts at The Ranch in Loveland and finishes in Fort Collins.
Challenge competitors will start the race at 11:35 a.m., going north on Fairgrounds Avenue until Colorado Highway 392/Main Street, where they will travel east and then weave through Third, Walnut and First streets before going west on Eastman Park Drive and then south on Seventh Street.
The race through Windsor is a relatively short duration, but we expect it to be an exciting, energizing opportunity, said Melissa Chew, Windsors Parks, Recreation and Culture director.
Windsor residents are asked to wear blue, which is the color of the jersey worn by the best young rider in the race, Chew said, adding that blue will serve as a visual reminder when Windsors leg of the race is broadcast on television.
Windsor resident Dina Rank said she plans on watching the race with her family and neighbors in the Poudre Heights subdivision near Seventh Street.
Were really excited, Rank said, adding that her husband, who enjoys riding his bike, is especially looking forward to it.
I really cant wait, she said. I dont even know how many bikes will go by. Ive never really seen anything like this of this magnitude before.
Two key viewing locations, Chew said, include the corner Fifth and Main streets, where the sprint segment ends, and Seventh Street just south of New Liberty Road, where the climb begins.
Street teams will be at each of those locations to help the crowd make noise and encourage the cyclists, Chew said.
The race route itself will be closed off, and there will be a rolling closure procedure. At approximately 11 a.m., County Road 5 at Crossroads Boulevard will be closed northbound, and Colorado 392 will be closed to right turns onto County Road 5 (Fairgrounds Avenue). At 11:15 a.m., Colorado 392 will close fully from County Road 5 to south Colorado Highway 257 until the cyclists have passed.
According to the town of Windsor website, these closures could impact the Interstate 25 off-ramps and cause brief closures of the U.S. Highway 34 and Colorado 392/Crossroads Boulevard ramps.
Its going to be interesting to see how many people will show up, said Garry Lipps, who owns the Lil Flower Shop on Main Street with his wife, Peggie. Right in the middle of the action, Lipps said the Lil Flower Shop will stay open during the race.
To kick off the race, there will be several family-oriented events going on in Boardwalk Park on Friday. From 6 to 8 p.m. Windsors USA Pro Challenge Kick-Off Party will offer live music, food, inflatables, a tricycle race, an aqua trike race, and a beer garden, which will run from 6-10 p.m.
A parade of bikes around Windsor Lake is set for 7:30 p.m., and from 8:30 p.m. to midnight, there will be movies, with screenings of Rise of the Guardians and American Flyers.
After the race, Chew said there are plenty of events to keep people in town.
The twn of Windsor museum is open, the Wine Fest is going on, Chew said.
There will be lots of activities that they can participate in afterwards.

Shannon, one major difference between digital and film, in terms of exposure. In digital, you tend to have to underexpose in order to not lose highlight detail, and then use your software to correct the tones as needed. With negative film, you have more latitude on the side of overexposure, since the detail on the neg can be burned into the print. Now, I'm not suggesting that you intentionally overexpose by six stops, but you do have take into account the latitude of the equipment you're using.
Congratulations on "regressing"! Once you get your feet under you, you're going to feel right at home in the analogue world.

Boot up: Groupon's fatal flaw?, Linux in Zambia, Windows 8′s no-Start, and more
Plus Android, developers and fragmentation, getting kids coding, the Legislation API and more
A quick burst of 11 links for you to chew over, as picked by the Technology team
Why Groupon is poised for collapse >> VentureBeat
for starters, it's not a coupon company nor a marketing company. At its core, Groupon's U.S. business is a receivables factoring business, as I wrote last year. They give loans to small businesses at a very steep rate (the price of the discount plus Groupon's commission). They get the money to fund these loans from credit card companies such as Chase Paymentech. Groupon is essentially a sub-prime lender that does zero risk assessment. And as word continues to spread about what a terrible deal running a Groupon is for many categories of businesses, the ones that will choose to run Groupons are the ones that are the most desperate. For U.S. based businesses, the only time I can definitely recommend running a Groupon is if it is otherwise going to go out of business.
Compelling. Was Google – which bid $ 1bn – lucky not to get it?
How Linux is changing lives in Zambia >> TechRadar
His role includes managing the roll-out of similar installations at other sites around the country. Like many young IT professionals, Munguya is laid-back, likeable and helpful to a fault. He's just bought his first car and he plans to get married early this year.
Nothing unusual so far, you might think. Except that Elton works for LinkNet Zambia. His 'patch' is a small rural village called Macha in the south of the country. The nearest tarmacked road is more than 15km away, and it's a 45-minute drive to get to the closest town, Choma.
The toll of hardware and software fragmentation on Android devs >> The Next Web
This was highlighted by the recent release of Temple Run on the Android platform. A previously (very) successful game on iOS, it was brought over to Android in order to take advantage of the huge number of devices that run the OS. And it has already hit 1 million downloads in just 3 days, good, even for a free app. But very quickly, the developers of the app discovered the pitfalls of fragmentation
Read the comments too, though: plenty of Android developers saying they don't have any problem. Seems like it's more of a problem for games developers.
TweetDeck taken offline following discovery of bug exposing Twitter accounts >> Digital Trends
Twitter has taken TweetDeck offline after a user discovered he had access to hundreds of Twitter accounts when using the client in the usual way (ie. he didn't hack it). TweetDeck said it is looking into the issue.
MasterCard, VISA Warn of Processor Breach >> Krebs on Security
VISA and MasterCard are alerting banks across the country about a recent major breach at a U.S.-based credit card processor. Sources in the financial sector are calling the breach "massive," and say it may involve more than 10 million compromised card numbers.
Update, 4:32 p.m. ET: Atlanta-based processor Global Payments just confirmed that they discovered a breach in early March 2012. See their full statement and several other updates at the end of this story.
Depressing, really. Banks have started looking for where the common point of use of breached cards might be. First result: parking garages around New York City.
No, Microsoft won't add back the Start button >> Dividend.com
A Nomura analyst commented, "Meeting Tami Reller, the head of marketing and CFO of the Windows and Windows Live Division at Microsoft. Microsoft will not be adding back the Start Button. They will add a tutorial to show keyboard/mouse users the new commands that they need to orient themselves with in the new OS. We have not seen the controversy on the touch (Metro) side, and this is where all the industry growth will come. Our next look at the product will be the Release Candidate (RC), which we have expected by June, followed by the Release to Manufacturing (RTM) in late July or August, and finally the release to General Availability (GA) in September or October."
Gang members sentenced over Apple and Amazon fraud | ZDNet UK
Three people have been sentenced for participating in a massive online music fraud, in which the gang uploaded music to iTunes and Amazon before using compromised cards to buy it back in large volumes.
At Southwark Crown Court on Thursday, James Batchelor was jailed for two years, Siobhan Clarke was given an eight-month suspended sentence and 150 hours' unpaid work, and Colton Johnson was order to undertake 80 hours' unpaid work. The sentencings were the last to take place in connection with the fraud, which has already seen 11 other people convicted and sentenced.
The fraud cost Apple and Amazon somewhere in the region of £1m, the Met said. The members of the gang were originally arrested in 2009 following a joint operation between the Met's Police Central e-Crime Unit (PCeU) and the New York Police Department.
Thousands of compromised US and UK credit cards were used for the fake purchases. Stupidly, they picked too few albums – they'd have been major recording artists to get that volume of purchases.
Google Account Activity tells you all they know >> SlashGear
This month Google is showing off their newest opt-in service known as Account Activity, a service capable of showing you everything the group knows about your signed-in activities. Google services of course work their way into several daily activities of people like you and I, and certainly knowing everywhere I logged in from as well as all the YouTube videos I've ever watched could be entertaining – but that's not what the service is for, says Google. Account Activity is Google's way of helping you "step back and take stock of what you're doing online" in an analytical way.
Looks rather neat.
Girls and coding: female peer pressure scares them off >> The Observer
Emma Mulqueeny:
In my opinion, Year 8 is too late. We need to start teaching digital literacy and coding as a part of the curriculum in Year 5, when most children's maths is strong enough. The curriculum has fostered a familiarity with computing and computers and the young minds are ready to start learning programming languages. Indeed primary school children are creative, excited and less likely to have developed associations, good or bad, with certain subjects.
Putting APIs first: legislation.gov.uk >> Government Digital Service
We are inviting people from outside The National Archives to work with us, to apply changes to the legislation in the database. Quality is maintained through our editorial practice and a stringent process of review. It is an exciting time as private sector companies are now investing, employing people to work with us to bring the database up to date and to maintain it.
Really interesting. Build the API first, make the API available, get people involved. And you think government is behind the times?
Touch hardware and Windows 8 – Building Windows 8 >> MSDN Blogs
Thanks @PaulJReynolds for the link, and his commentary sums it up perfectly: "It's encouraging the they're spending so much time trying to make sure the hardware produced will work as well as possible. "But it does point to the huge challenge they're facing without Apple's luxury of actually making the machines of getting devices to work nicely on hardware from many different manufacturers and how crappy the experience might be if you don't choose a Certified for Windows 8 machine." The video is very interesting, showing the difference between good and bad hardware: you might want to gets a hands-on with your first Windows 8 tablet before laying down your money.

The price of crude dropped Tuesday, with futures contracts for November 13th delivery trading down almost 1.3 percent for West Texas Intermediate and over 1 percent for Brent. The primary culprit appears to be persistent concern over the government shutdown and the possibility of a default on American debt.
Potential Debt Default Drives Down Prices
At the heart of falling crude prices was continued concern over the potential for a government debt default. The potential economic collapse that would follow a debt default would most likely result in decreased demand for crude at home and abroad, making oil a much less attractive investment for some.
"Crude oil prices retreated ... as the US budget issues in Washington weighed on market sentiment and raised persistent concerns about a slowdown in the US oil demand," said Sucden brokers analyst Myrto Sokou on Monday. "The main focus remains on the US debt ceiling and government shutdown as the markets are hoping for a resolution to the issue before Thursday's deadline."
Oil markets kept a close eye on news out of Washington, but Tuesday seemed to indicate that the stalemate wasn't coming to an end.
Supply Up As Well
The continued drop in prices comes after prices reached a 14-week low last Wednesday when the government reported higher-than-expected inventories of crude, adding the price-pressure of increased supply to the already present potential for decreased demand.
"We seem to be tipping the scales back toward another test of $100 a barrel," said Tradition Energy broker and analyst Gene McGillian on Wednesday.
ETFs Hit as Well
Plunging crude prices hit ETFs hard as well, with the United States Oil Fund ($USO) dropping over 1 percent and the PowerShares DB Oil Fund ($DBO) declining over 0.5 percent. Joining them were several equities ETFs tracking oil producers, with the Market Vectors Oil Services ETF ($OIH) off over 0.5 percent, the iShares Dow Jones US Oil Equipment ETF ($IEZ) dropping almost 0.65 percent, and the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Equipment & Services ETF ($XES) plunging over 1 percent.

A Philosophical CafÉ was held on World Philosophy Day
The campus community was invited to join philosophy faculty and senior majors for conversation, refreshments, and music at a PHILOSOPHICAL CAFÉ in celebration of World Philosophy Day. The emphasis for this year's CAFÉ was on the work and legacy (think Kant and Nietzsche) of the Scottish philosopher David Hume, whose 300th birthday is observed this year. UNESCO's World Philosophy Day, observed on the third Thursday in November since 2002, is a day for people around the world to come together to talk about fundamental philosophical questions related to our human existence, in the hopes of promoting global understanding and peace.

Philosophy Majors (and others) Participate in Mock Trial in Washington, DC
Various philosophy students competed at the 24th Annual National Mock Trial Invitational Tournament at Loras College, including (but not limited to), Nathan Scheiner, Emily Wade, Jake Hasson, Sam "Henry" Eklund, and Lexii Carrillo. With nearly identical records, two Macalester teams finished in 5th and 6th place out of almost 70 participating teams. Macalester Mock trial is looking forward to the regional competition at the University of Wisconsin - Superior in two weeks, and we are hopeful that we will advance two teams in the national competition!
What did Vivian Ihekoronye do this summer
The kids I taught are a smart and energetic bunch. I'll never forget the delighted looks on the students' faces when philosophical arguments were brought to life through silly but thoughtful philosophical dialogues. Despite being between the ages of 8 and 10, they showed maturity during class discussions about topics such as politics and gender inequality and its effect on friendship, politics, and perceptions of superheroes. Ultimately, the students taught me that kids are natural philosophers: always curious with questions and willing to debate when given the opportunity. Moreover, philosophy provides a platform for kids to develop intellectual humility, empathy, and courage through conversation and creative thought experiments. I hope that philosophy associations and educational institutions will be more proactive in finding ways to give children a taste of the intellectual pursuit we, as collegiate and professional philosophers, have been so lucky to experience.

Santa Rosa has been working to slash its PG&E bill ever since the recession knocked its budget's lights out four years ago.
It started by darkening thousands of its 16,000 streetlights in largely quiet residential areas.
Then it put others on timers, cutting in half the number of hours they were lit each evening on the theory that a little light is better than none.
Now, the city has embarked on the third phase of its energy-saving effort by replacing hundreds of existing streetlamps at intersections with new, super-efficient bulbs that cost less to operate and will last more than three times longer.
Signalized intersections are the focus of the latest effort because turning existing streetlights off isn't an option for safety reasons. It's also where the upgrades make the most financial sense.
"The energy bang for the buck is the highest at those locations," said Steve Kroeck, deputy director of field services for the transit and public works department.
Streetlights aren't metered like homes. The city pays on a per-pole basis depending on the wattage of the bulb. A 250-watt high-pressure sodium bulb found at many intersections, for example, costs the city $146 a year to operate.
But the new, 150-watt induction bulbs replacing them produce plenty of light but cost $74 annually, a nearly 50 percent savings, said John Miklaucic, a supervising electrical technician.
Total savings from the program isn't clear because the 775 new bulbs are still being installed, Miklaucic said. But whatever the figure, it's going to be worth it to the city because $400,000 in federal stimulus money paid for the new bulbs and the labor to install them.
"We wouldn't have done this on our own dime," Miklaucic said. "It just wouldn't have happened."

People are always using functions and website and rarely ever really dig in to the settings for those websites; that goes for other sites like Facebook and Google, but today I was starting my Google+ hangout and saw the options for the camera.
The layout of Google+ hangouts has changed a bit, so it makes good sense to check on them periodically. What I found in the settings was odd…
To me it seemed retro; it was a connection speed selection…
From the Google+ hangouts main sreen, typically on the right hand side. You'll see the option to Start A Hangout…
Option for the settings is right there when you begin it…
The selection waws for wither FAST CONNECTION or SLOW CONNECTION. I would have figured that by this time the way the Internet is the web applications of today would be detecting that option for you; especially from the old Internet users.
I wouldn't really expect that option to stay there very long; I woulld expect to see a speed detection and optimization to be built right in to Google+ hangouts.
And if you are ever wondering, yes you need a plug-in to use Google+ hangouts with the browser. I enjoy the Google+ hangouts, they're fun and the quality is good.
So, the point of the story is— don't forget to check your settings.
Thank you,

Building on the popular United States Agency for International Development's (USAID) HealthMap, the interface has now been extended to support a tool known as Predict to track the global outbreak of animal diseases that might jump to humans. The system is set to monitor health data from more than 50,000 websites, including news sites, the World Health Organization and the online discussion boards of health experts to filter information onto a map-based interface.
PREDICT has developed a SMART surveillance method (Strategic, Measurable, Adaptive, Responsive, and Targeted) that accounts for the fact that zoonotic pathogens, such as influenza and SARS, are responsible for the majority of emerging infectious diseases in people, and that more than three quarters of these emerging zoonoses are of wildlife origin. The SMART surveillance approach is designed to detect novel diseases with pandemic potential early, giving health professionals the best opportunity to prevent emergence and spread. It also targets sentinel animal species at active human interfaces in hotspot regions to improve surveillance efficiency.
The core partners include UC Davis, Global Viral Forecasting Inc., Wildlife Conservation Society and the EcoHealth Alliance, formerly known as Wildlife Trust.

Netanyahu Cancels DC Visit Fearing Ambush
Posted By Ira Glunts On April 10, 2010 @ 6:45 pm In News | Comments Disabled
Like the gleeful sound one makes upon hearing that a particularly obnoxious and troublesome relative will not be attending a family gathering, Washington officials probably issued a collective sigh of relief when hearing the news that Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has canceled his visit to Washington planned for next week. The Israeli Prime Minister has caused enough diplomatic problems for the Obama government recently and his appearance at an international summit on the spread of nuclear weapons could have further embarrassed both Israel and the United States.
Netanyahu will not attend the weapons conference because he is afraid to confront a group of representatives of Arab nations who plan to bring up the issue of Israel's non-participation in the Non-Proliferation Treaty. These nations want to force Israel to publicly acknowledge its nuclear capability and permit international inspection of its facilities.
The Jerusalem Post [1] refers to the Israeli nuclear arsenal as "alleged,†maintaining the ludicrous Tel Aviv "policy of ambiguity.†The headline of the Hebrew version of Ynet [2] says Netanyahu is afraid of an "ambush†by the Arab delegates to the conference. Israel will send Intelligence Minister Dan Meridor to the conference to be the flak-catcher for Netanyahu. The Israeli leader's absence will deflect attention from the potential bad publicity that discussion of Israel's nuclear capability will generate.
Israel maintains an arsenal which is assumed to be between 100 and 300 warheads depending on the source of the data estimate. Mordechai Vanunu revealed details of Israel's nuclear arsenal to the British press in 1986. He served 18 years in an Israeli prison after being abducted from Italy by the Israeli intelligence service Mossad. Vanunu is prohibited from leaving Israel, where his freedom of speech, association and movement have been severely limited by authorities since his release. He has been designated as a prisoner of conscience by Amnesty International [3].
According to the Federation of American Scientists [4] website, it has been reported that "fearing defeat in the October 1973 Yom Kippur War, the Israelis assembled 13 twenty-kiloton atomic bombs.†The fact that Israel may have seriously considered a nuclear strike in 1973 first became known to the general public in Seymour Hersh's 1993 book, The Samson Option [5]. If my memory serves me, Hersh claimed that Israel loaded the nukes on missiles and aimed them.
Surely the Americans must be ecstatic about Netanyahu not coming for another visit, although they are forced by their "very special relationship†with Israel to explicitly deny the obvious. The dubious honor for the denial fell on the shoulders of General James Jones, who told reporters [6] that "of course we wanted the Prime Minister [Netanyahu] to come [back for another visit].â€
Isn't the very special Israeli-American relationship getting more special all the time?

Anthony Pepe had to deal with several close calls this weekend at the PBA Bowlers Supply/Storm Products Eastern Open.
The 26 year-old New Yorker nearly missed participating in Saturday's qualifying session, making it to Colony Park Lanes North with barely five minutes to spare. That obstacle didn't set Pepe, a sales rep for Storm Products, too far behind. The left-hander finished qualifying in third place.
The other close call he encountered came perhaps at almost the worst time. In the semifinals against Ryan Ciminelli, Pepe tore the skin on the outer part of his left thumb. Cruising up until that point, he had to battle and got a big assist from Ciminelli, who had an open 10th frame, to advance to the finals opposite two-time runner-up and fellow left-hander Travis Celmer.
Scrambling to do his best to continue, Pepe got another big assist from another tour pro, Ryan Shafer. Shafer, who qualified first overall but lost in the first round to David Knight Jr., had a band-aid with him that Pepe was able to apply to stop the bleeding. It also provided enough cushion to allow the Elmhurst, N.Y., native to play on.
Suffice it to say, Pepe may never bowl again without that bandage. Somewhat improbably, the left-hander bowled the best game of his tournament, downing Celmer 278-246 to claim his first PBA title as a card-carrying member.
"Personally, I didn't know if I was going to compete in the championship round," he said. "My thumb just ripped completely open. I tore the skin off it and it was bleeding profusely. So I got this patch, which I got from Ryan Shafer. Now Danny (Wiseman) was helping me put it on and thankfully it held up."
It not only did that, it also helped him concentrate on remaining consistent with his approach on every shot.
"I just thought to myself, 'keep it one shot at a time,'" said Pepe, who took home $3,100 for his efforts.
Pepe did that with remarkable accuracy, throwing six strikes to start the match. His only hiccup came in the seventh when he left the 6-8 pins standing for a split. And just like every other obstacle he encountered this weekend, Pepe converted the spare opportunity.
"When I left that split in the seventh frame, I wasn't really trying to make it," Pepe said. "Thankfully it worked my way."
Pepe finished with five more strikes to close out the match and send Celmer, who left an open 10 pin in the seventh frame, home with this third runner-up finish in four years.
"The first shot (in the seventh) I just got out a little too fast," said Celmer, who earned $1,600. "So the second shot I just over-compensated."
Notes: The tournament, which featured the PBA Tournament Chameleon pattern, seemed to especially benefit the left-handers. Sunday's bracket, which featured the top 16 qualifiers, included eight left-handers, four of which squared off the in the semifinals.
Celmer, the No. 8 seed, knocked off Gary Haines, 228-181, to advance to the finals, while the No. 3 seeded Pepe downed fellow lefty Ciminelli, the No. 7 seed.
It was clear there were no hard feelings from Wiseman, who fell to Pepe in the quarterfinals (203-174, 184-164). The 2013 PBA Hall of Famer and 12-time PBA Tour winner may have a future in medicine after he retires from bowling. He took to his role as Pepe's doctor with ease.

Government Documents Collection to Move
In preparation for the renovations to O'Neill Library's Level 1 the bulk of the print collection of U.S. Federal documents that were housed on that floor on compact shelving will move to closed shelving within the O'Neill Library. Many of our government documents are now available electronically, with links in Quest and Holmes.
To locate and retrieve print government document publications, BC community members can search Quest or Holmes and place a request for retrieval as they would for other off-site collections. Non-BC users of the collection will temporarily have to request retrieval at the main service desk in O'Neill Library. Items will be delivered (physically or to the desktop) within 24 hours and in many cases quicker. The move will begin on Monday, April 2 and take a few weeks to complete.

[photogallerylink id=132971 align=right]A lot of people may want to try and take credit for the living pop legend that is [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Lady Gaga. [/lastfm]Once, D.C. rapper, [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Wale[/lastfm] joked that he should be credited with her success because she was featured on his very first commercial single, "Chillin" back in 2009.
The operative word there is "joked," and that's what we think of Donald Trump's latest claim pertaining to Mother Monster. In his new book, "Time To Get Tough: Making America #1 Again," the real estate tycoon asserts that a performance on his Miss USA pageant was a make or break moment for the artsy Gaga.
"Maybe" he begins "she became a star because I put her on the Miss Universe Pageant. It's very possible, who knows what would have happened without it, because she caused a sensation. … I really believe I had at least something to do with it."
Sure, Lady Gaga was thankful for every TV appearance she got the year she first broke, and every one since. But the strong fact of the matter is that most people don't watch the Miss "anything" pageants anymore so saying that her success is directly related to Donald Trump or any one person or thing is just not likely.
For instance, did you remember that she even performed at all? Did you remember who hosted? (Jerry Springer and [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Mel B.[/lastfm] of the [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Spice Girls[/lastfm], by the way). What about who won? Probably not, huh?
The song Lady Gaga performed "Just Dance" was already racing up the charts when she performed it at Miss Universe, everything that came after is Gaga's doing. Albeit with help from a team of talented individuals, but still The Donald has nothing to do with it.

The energy is palpable, the creativity and joy. It's just a rehearsal, but you feel the wonder of it seeping through your pores the moment you walk into the room. Yes, something fantastic is happening in Ruidoso and the Lincoln County Community Theater folks are at the helm.
What's creating all the energy, the stir in the air that buzzes through Rehearsal Room 119 at ENMU Ruidoso? It's kids! A handful of wonderful, grinning, eager youths, all dedicated to bringing LCCT's fall production of, "The Miracle Worker" to life.
This past year, LCCT has enjoyed a period of renaissance, revitalization, change and growth, drawing new talent and encouraging the production of a lively and varied theater season. They've done an amazing job of bringing exciting, fun, prolific theater to Lincoln County; they've past the brink of great and become positively superior and this fall's production is no exception. Watching rehearsal, taking it all in, it becomes immediately obvious that the youthful cast of "The Miracle Worker" is an important part of their revitalization.
"The Miracle Worker" is a massive undertaking, but the LCCT folks are committed to excellence and the production of American playwright, William Gibson's 1957 masterpiece based on Helen Keller's autobiography, "The Story of My Life.
"The Miracle Worker," is the deeply emotional, touching story of young Helen Keller's frustrating, often violent struggle to communicate despite being blind, deaf and mute.
In November, LCCT teams up with a lot of great folks to host a Gala Benefit Production of "The Miracle Worker," raising funds and awareness for the Ski Apache Disabled Skiers Program. Directed by Glynese Floyd, and staring an all-Lincoln County cast, "The Miracle Worker" will be an event to remember, an extravaganza brimming with zesty child actors who bring the drama, provide the hope, put their all into each memorable role. The kids of "The Miracle Worker" are sure to win your hearts!
Seasoned Community Theater sweetheart Avonlea Ward leads of the crew as Helen Keller. Avonlea has entertained audiences in the past with roles in "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever," "The Snow Queen," "A Christmas Story" and "An Implausible Claus." She loves to act, is passionate and excited about her role in "The Miracle Worker." She's thrilled to learn more about Helen Keller's story and eager to challenge herself as an actress. She will most certainly wow audiences with her stunning portrayal of Helen Keller.
Brianna Stoddard, a much-loved member of First Baptist Church of Ruidoso has a smile that could melt butter and enthusiasm that's catching. She plays Viney, the Keller's cook. Brianna loves to act, is a member of All State Choir and dreams of someday being on Broadway.
Mya McGhee strikes a pose and captures your heart as Pressie, a close member of Viney's family and a constant in the Keller household. She's always wanted to act and jumped at the opportunity to work with LCCT, hoping to overcome shyness and learn more about theater.
Sofia Reyes, a sweet, funny sixth-grader at Ruidoso Middle School wanted to see how it felt to be in a big production, something different from school plays and is delighted with her role as Martha, another child-constant in the Keller household.
May Lucero likes acting. She once played Little Red, in "Little Red Riding Hood." She auditioned for the role of Beatrice, the oldest blind girl, because she thought it would suit her, that she'd be good at it, plus she loves her props, a doll and glasses.
First-time actress Daisy Reyes wants to learn about acting and is excited to play Alice, a vivacious blind student at the Perkins Institute. An adorable six-year-old, she's enthusiastic about being on stage and having the opportunity to "jump out."
Last, but certainly not least, elfin seven-year-old Ella Ward plays timid Sarah. Following in her sister Avonlea's footsteps, she's a perfect fit for the role as the smallest blind girl. She's excited about her first Community Theater production and loves just being in it.
The talented young cast of, "The Miracle Worker" are true gems; standout children that will win you over, entertain you, make you smile, laugh and cry so be sure to mark your calendar, and buy your tickets early for the opening night gala on Nov. 9
The gala includes hors d'oeuvres and music by Lanny Maddox in the Gallery at Mountain Annies starting at 5:30pm with the performance at 7:00pm. Additional performances will be held Nov. 10, 16, and 17.

Eight years ago, we moved to Portland, Oregon from Houston, Texas. We had never even been to Portland when we flew up to check it out and to begin looking at the housing market. We had three or four days to buy a house in a city we knew nothing about. We had a wonderful realtor, who knew the whole city, traffic patterns, and the market. We also brought my dad and his girlfriend along for advice. We looked at homes in different price ranges, and many different areas of town. Of course we were seeking God's guidance, but when it came down to it, we weighed the pros and cons of each home, the neighborhoods, and the price we could pay. We settled on one, and our offer was accepted. We liked the home, Terry had an easy commute to work, and the really big "God thing" is that there were several Christian families on the street. The Pacific Northwest is not exactly the Bible belt. I made several close friendships right on my block.
Our move back to Houston three years later was a bit easier. We did consider a few different areas and neighborhoods, but because of some other factors, we ended up having a fairly narrow search. We loved our home, the neighborhood and the location.
Two years ago, we moved to Connecticut. We knew very little about Connecticut. We had two visits and a total of about five days to find a home this time. I was just talking with my friend who is here visiting about how much we love our house, the town we ended up in, the schools and everything. When I look at the other two homes that we were really considering, we are quite glad for many reasons that this is the house we chose. It's obvious that the Lord's hand guided our decision.
But how did He guide us? Was our search narrowed to one home, due to sellers' demands or price or lack of inventory? Was there one home that had every single thing that we wanted and others which would have been a distant second? No. We sought the Lord. We used the expertise and knowledge of those around us. We made lists with pros and cons. In the end, we went with gut instinct. But even after looking back with more knowledge of our surroundings, or with the benefits of neighbors who became friends, there was no place we would have rather been. Did we get lucky? No. We sought the Lord, and He guided us in ways that we can't describe and will never fully understand, but for that, we thank Him.

Hearing from God

It's neat that we can be confident in seeing God's hand at work in our lives. Often we don't realize it until after the fact, when we step back and look at the completed picture. But it's a beautiful thing - hearing from God and seeing Him at work in our lives. Great post . . .
- Jeannine said...
And then there's us . . .we bought our house at an auction and I decided I wanted the house three minutes after we arrived and about ten minutes before it went up for auction. :-0
It was definitely a gift from God and we got it at a good price, and our neighbors are all wonderful. We've been here for seven years and have no regrets.

PORTLAND, ORE. – So what do presidential candidates do on five hour flights as they campaign across the country? On Barack Obama's press plane, it's Taboo – the board game, that is.
A favorite of the Obama press corps, the charades-like game forces players to describe the word given to them on a card without using certain key terms.
One Obama staffer pulled the word "gap," and his clue to the team was: "where gay people get their clothes." Several people called out store names, with Obama chiming in with "Abercrombie and Fitch."

The challenge of recruiting college football players has become as much about holding onto athletes who have committed to a program early in the recruiting period as it is about swaying those who remain undecided late in the process.
But now, if some college football coaches have their way, the game of holding onto recruits while possibly poaching others could have less time to play out. The NCAA is considering implementing an early signing period for football.
The early signing period wouldn't replace the traditional February signing date but would merely let football fall in line with other sports such as basketball that have an early signing period.
The move will be considered by the Conference Commissioners Association when it meets June 6-8 in Newport Beach, Calif.
Reasons for the push include a desire to let athletes who are certain where they want to attend go ahead and sign and to save institutions money.
Most coaches are for the move -- they just can't seem to settle on the ideal date.
The ACC recently announced it was in favor of an early signing date of Aug. 1, an idea that was immediately shot down by Alabama coach Nick Saban, who supports an early signing date of Dec. 1 so athletes would have their senior season to showcase their improvement.
Closer to home, Utah State coach Matt Wells isn't so much concerned about the possible date for an early signing period -- he supports the concept -- as much he wonders what it could mean for recruiting.
Often, schools that receive an oral commitment from an athlete must keep recruiting that athlete to ensure he stays committed.
The old standard that a commitment was as good as a signed piece of paper is nonexistent in today's what-have-you-done-for-me-lately recruiting world. Recruiting expert Tom Lemming notes in Maxpreps.com that almost 50 percent of the early verbals from the class of 2007 failed to stick with their original commitments.
An early signing date might prevent so much shuffling. But it could also work the other way. What if a big school fails to sign its blue-chippers early and cherry-picks recruits destined for mid-major teams?
"You could have a lot of schools jumping on guys and it could get crowded," Wells said. "But overall I think it's a good idea."
Utah coach Kyle Whittingham has experienced both sides as his program has grown from the mid-major ranks to the BCS.
Like Wells, he is in favor of the move, but isn't sure of the best time for it.
"One thing to consider is if they modify the recruiting rules for official visits," he said. "A lot of players don't have the means to fly around and visit places on their own, so it makes sense if there is an early signing period, players could make their official visits the spring of their junior year."
As it stands now, prospects are not allowed to make official visits until Sept. 1 of their senior years.
Whittingham believes schools could save money with an early signing period because schools could lock in recruits willing to sign early rather than continue to recruit them to make sure others don't swoop in and woo recruits away.
Whittingham estimates about half of Utah's signing class would sign early if given the chance.
"With a smaller pool of athletes available after the early signing date, it would take less expense and travel to recruit them," he said. "But the competition for them will be tough." -- Signing dates for 2014-15 BasketballEarly - Nov. 13-20Regular - April 16-May 21FootballMidyear JC transfer - Dec. 18-Jan. 15Regular - Feb. 5-April 20Field hockey, soccer, track and field, cross country, men's water polo - Feb. 5-Aug. 1All other sportsEarly - Nov. 13-20Regular - April 16-Aug. 1

It's another example of why online dating gets suck a bad rap...yeah, I'm sure this could just as easily happen with the dude you meet at a bar, but it's so much easier for a psycho to pretend to be sane when they're behind a computer screen. Maybe some of the people around here should remember that when they're using True Crime as an eHarmony for the elderly...

which is why I refuse to give out my phone number, a email account. and why my avatars will NEVER EVER show the street I live on. or even the style of my own house.,since I will admit that google has taken a picture of my house as well as others on my street as well. .since one can find out from street view on where a picture was taken. if the street was photographed as well along the length..http://icanstalku.com/how.php However, most modern digital cameras do not automatically add geolocation (Latitude and Longitude) metadata to pictures. The process for adding the geolocation data either requires specialized add on hardware, or post processing with software on the desktop after the pictures are taken.There is a large exception to this rule: Smartphones. With the proliferation of smart phones that contain GPS locator technology inside, the cameras in these devices are already equipped with the specialized hardware to automatically add geolocation information to the pictures at the time they are taken.. there are other websites that give simular information. some even have programs to find out where a picture was taken.

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) – Directed by Stanley Kubrick – Starring Keir Dullea, Gary Lockwood, William Sylvester, and Douglas Rain.
From Roger Ebert's excellent essay on 2001:
To describe that first screening as a disaster would be wrong, for many of those who remained until the end knew they had seen one of the greatest films ever made. But not everyone remained. Rock Hudson stalked down the aisle, complaining, "Will someone tell me what the hell this is about?"
I'll give it a shot, Rock.
I've been running an incredibly high fever mixed with body chills the past few days, and perhaps that is the best way to watch 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY, because I had little energy but to lay on the couch and let the film roll over me. 2001 is not a movie with a typical narrative structure of beginning, middle, and end combining to take you on a singular journey. Instead, there are four separate sections to 2001 – Dawn of Man, the Clavius Base/TMA-1, Jupiter Mission, and Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite, and the experience Stanley Kubrick creates is one of the cinema as spectacle.
The image my mind always conjures up when I watch 2001 is that the proper way to watch the movie is to dress up in a nice suit and tie and go to a theatre (instead of a theater) and just sit there and absorb the film the way you would absorb a piece of orchestral music. Part of this comes from Kubrick's use of classical music throughout 2001, notably Johann Strauss' waltz, The Blue Danube, and Richard Strauss' Also sprach Zarathustra.
Consistently in 2001, Kubrick manages to make the ordinary extraordinary and the extraordinary ordinary, and the end result is a gorgeous, epic, cinematic masterpiece. Travelling to the moon, for instance, should be an extraordinary event (especially given 2001 being released over a year before Neil Armstrong left his boot prints on the moon), yet Kubrick gets Dr. Heywood Floyd (William Sylvester) to the moon in ordinary fashion, aboard a Pan Am shuttle, and then when they get there Dr. Floyd helps to run a debriefing session. In this conference room meeting, though, Kubrick starts to turn the ordinary back to the extraordinary, as we learn that the reason why everyone is freaking out about Calvius base is because the scientists there discovered something amazing – a black monolith.
The same (at least in appearance) black monolith that we saw in the first segment of the film, where we spend some non-verbal time watching two ape factions battle over a watering hole.
Whether purposefully or accidentally (or both), the monolith appears at moments that launch humanity into the next stage of their long existence. With the apes, the monolith appears just before one ape learns how to use a bone as a weapon. Next, it appears on the moon, which spurns humanity into deep space exploration to Jupiter, and then in Jupiter it pushes Dave Bowman (Keir Dullea) through space where he lives out his days in a white room before being re-birthed as the "star child."
It's very easy to see strains of the monolith in Ridley Scott's recently released Prometheus, with the idea of aliens leaving us an invitation to journey to the stars, but where Scott makes this "star map" into a key component of his film, Kubrick barely raises the issue. It's there to get the thin narrative moving, but Kubrick has little interest in engaging this idea directly.
So much of 2001 is like this – Kubrick stubbornly sticks to what he wants and you're either along for the ride, or jetting out of the theater with good ol' Mr. Hudson.
It takes 25 minutes for anyone to say a word (ape grunting and howling doesn't count) and nearly an hour to get to what people recognize as the actual heart of the film – Frank Poole (Gary Lockwood) and Dave's journey to Jupiter with HAL 9000 (Douglas Rain).
Why not?
Instead of giving us that straight narrative, Kubrick keeps coming back to this idea of humanity on the precipice of its next step, and watches how they struggle with going forward or remaining who they are. With the apes, the conflict centers around that watering hole. Each faction wants it. Each is willing to use violence to get it, and Kubrick's film rewards the ape faction that weaponizes itself.
Except, it's not the turn to violence that actually propels the apes forward, but rather the use of tools. While the focus in the "Dawn of Man" sequence is of the ape being violent with the large bone, the cut to the next sequence comes when the ape tosses the bone into the air and we get a match-cut linking the bone with an orbital satellite. Now, in earlier drafts of the script, Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke intended for these satellites to be weaponized, which would make violence that critical link between humanity's past and present, but without clearly marking the satellites as weaponized, I see the link as one of tools and invention more than violence.
This read works at the end of the film, too. When Dave is transformed into the Star Child, earlier versions of the ending had him coming to Earth to destroy those war machines, but in the actual film, the Star Child simply gazes at the planet Earth. This ending is much less definitive, but it's also much more hopeful.
My favorite section of the film is the second part, where we follow Dr. Floyd around because I just love the routine nature of the entire endeavor. I like that we spend time with Heywood on his Pan Am flight and I like that Kubrick uses the juxtaposition of classical music and futuristic space travel to perfectly complement one another. The music gives the ordinary nature of the action a sense of beauty.
The HAL sequence is the most famous in the film, but again we see just how simple Kubrick plays it. Dave, Frank, and HAL 9000 are headed towards Jupiter. The HAL 9000 computer has never made a mistake.
And then it seemingly does.
Frank and Dave believe they have to consider shutting HAL down and they go into a module so they can talk in private – except they can't talk in private because HAL can read lips. HAL kills Frank and then refuses to let Dave back on board. Dave gets in anyway and then effectively kills HAL. As Dave is shutting HAL down, HAL is cognizant of his demise, and Douglas Rain's cold voice reveals this machine as the most human in the film. Repeatedly begging for his life, HAL admits, "I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, I'm afraid. My mind is going. I can feel it."
It's tragic and pointed, as this machine that is now begging for his life just killed someone.
Dave takes HAL down and ends up at Jupiter, where he gets sent on an amazing journey that ends with him living out his days in a beautiful, old room. Again, the visuals here are breathtakingly beautiful and for all that 2001 doesn't give you in story, it certainly delivers in visuals, and while I'm watching the film I'm no less engaged with 2001 than I am with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
And that's the real brilliance of Kubrick in 2001 – he creates a film that isn't typical but is still completely engaging. What does it all mean? Well, what do you want it to mean? Kubrick's film isn't here to give you answers as much as it is to give you something to look at. If you want to use it as a base to ponder the mysteries of life, of humanity's evolution, of man's relationship to the larger universe … 2001 provides the perfect launching.
But if you just want to sit back and watch the greatest and longest music video ever made, 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY has got you covered there, too.

The number of local singers hoping to become the next American Idol was whittled down to one Wednesday.
Taylor Walls, a South Rockwood resident and Flat Rock High School graduate, is the only Monroe County native to continue on the show.
The 19-year-old is currently studying music management at Madonna University.
"Group rounds, here I come!" Ms. Walls tweeted following the episode.
UPDATE: Ms. Walls made it through the group rounds during "Hollywood Round #1," which aired Feb. 6. Although her group was not featured on the episode, Ms. Walls tweeted a photo of herself with fellow contestants Brandy Neelly and Ethan Harris, announcing that all three had made it through to the next round.
During "Hollywood or Home," which aired Feb. 5, a portion of the contestants were asked to perform for the celebrity judges a second time to decide whether or not they would continue on. After performing, contestants were then separated and told to board one of two buses; one which took them to a hotel in Hollywood, the other took them back to the airport.
Jade Lathan, 20, of Monroe was eliminated during that round. She is currently a student at Wayne State University studying music.
Ms. Walls was taken to the Hollywood hotel.
Julian Miller, 18, of Monroe told the Monroe News he did not participate in the Hollywood rounds because he received "a better offer" to advance his musical career.

It's that time of the year–time for the pancake feed! Such a glamorous name. It calls to mind some unglamorous pictures. But I just have to put in a plug for my Kiwanis club, because the things we support are so worthwhile. All the money we earn goes to help young children in various ways.
My club holds our annual pancake breakfast this weekend. We serve pancakes and sausage at Christ the King Church in south Moorhead from 7:00-1:00 on Saturday and from 8:00-1:00 on Sunday. Along with the fabulous pancakes, we also have a silent auction, which is run by my sister (with some help from me as well).
I will be bringing five large baskets of my canned goods–jams, salsas, pickles, chutneys; just about anything you can think of.
So if you're in the mood for pancakes, a little shopping, and your money going to a good cause, stop out at Christ the King this weekend for some pancakes! And while you're at it, please bid on a basket of canned goods! 😉

What an awesome and humbling statement about what we should be about. We feel good about throwing $100, $200 in the offering plate yet she gave more than she had for someone less than worthwhile because it's , "just the thing to do". If only we were more like her…
Originally posted on Footsteps In The Deep:
I've written before about Vasilica, her faith, her life, and the difficult situation she is in. As we visited her last night, I was reminded once again of the power of God to turn normal, insignificant people into men and women of destiny, into saints.
For saints are not merely extraordinary Christians dead and gone, people to admire. Rather, every follower of Jesus is called to be a saint, a holy man or woman of God, full of his power and love. Saints are simply nobodies who said "yes" to the One and so became somebody.
1 Corinthians 1:2, "To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours."

Should I be concerned about carbon monoxide in my home?
Carbon monoxide can be an invisible threat to your family's health and safety. Though more commonly associated with fires and automobile emissions, carbon monoxide poisoning can accumulate in any home unless certain precautions are taken.
Home heating systems represent only 5% of potential carbon monoxide sources. Though the amount of carbon monoxide produced is not substantial, it is important to schedule annual maintenance visits by a qualified technician to make sure all combustion appliances are operating properly and all chimneys and vents are free from obstruction.
For more information on carbon monoxide detection, contact your local Lennox dealer.

Java 1.6 is required
I have a newer version, so it won't start.
It says:
JDK version 1.7.0-ea detected, but 1.6 is required
I know it is required, but why won't the application at least try to run it. (with a start-up warning or something)
3 Answers
Marcel Huijkman Friend, you are right, java 1.7 should be supported in Titanium because i have to install java 1.6 specially for Titanium which is ugly…. to install old version.
My understanding is that Java 6 and Java 1.6 are the same. So if you install Java 6 it should work. I installed GlassFish which is built on Java 6 and I got past this error.
See: http://glassfish.java.net/
I'm afraid I am not really sure what you are asking. Did you follow the Getting Started installation guide? Having JDK 1.6 installed is a pre-requisite for developing applications for android using Titanium. Would you expect Linux programs to attempt to run on Windows, and notify you that Windows is not supported?
If I have misunderstood your post, then I apologise. If you explain it another way, I will attempt to help you to resolve the issue.
