It's time for the Danica dance … remember to keep refreshing your web browser to read new updates … Please, comment away. I'll do my best to throw back answers.
The SPEED channel is plugging away on the Daytona 500 as we speak. If you haven't heard, Dale Earnhardt, Jr. qualified on the outside pole, while Mark Martin took the pole for next Sunday's big event. Both are teammates for Hendrick Motorsports.
Danica is slated to fire up her engine just shy of 3:30 p.m. in the ARCA Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200. I wonder how the race's grand marshall will handle the female prescence in today's race? Gentlemen and ladies, start your engine? BTW … who's singing the anthem?
SPEED's Bob Dillner: "All eyes will be on Danica." (Danica is starting the 80-lap race at Daytona from the 12th position, after laying down a qualifying lap of 179.788 on Friday.)
Danica Fun Fact: Danica Sue Patrick was born March 25, 1982 in Beloit, Wis. She claims her hometown to be Roscoe, Ill.
The ARCA racing series is basically a developmental-type league for NASCAR, but there are still some old wheel-sawers out there who couldn't cut the mustard with the big boys. Like Florida's 46-year-old Tony Altiere, who's best finish in the series is a pair of 25th finishes at Pocono in 1997 and Nashville in 2001. Altiere, however, didn't make today's field. Wonder why?
Why haven't they interviewed Danica yet? Ken Squire is looking rather haggard this year. Wonder if he's down on anyone's death pool in 2010?
Danica Fun Fact: Danica's best finish in the Indy 500 was third in 2009. She only has one victory in the IndyCar series, a win at Twin Ring Motegi in the Indy Japan 300 on April 20, 2008.
It's getting close to green flag time.
Grand Marshall: "Drivers start your engines." I should have saw that coming.
Danica Patrick: "Um, you know, I think you know, I want to get through as much of the race as possible … I do need that seat time, won't do me any good if I'm not getting it. You know, I'm really hoping to get this GoDaddy car to the front and have a good result."
I'm over 35 minutes into this historic day in stock car racing. Number of comments: 0. Maybe I should put up a different picture of Danica.
Still doing parade laps, just about to go green. Daytona International Speedway is a 2.5-mile tri-oval. NASCAR has a standard 43-car starting field in all of its racing series.
GREEN FLAG!! 3:41 p.m.
LAP 5 of 80: The front of the field is all single file. Danica has slid in to the 14th position and is riding around the bottom yellow line. Darrell Waltrip: "She's concentrating on staying on that yellow line."
Lap 7 of 80: Big wreck on the backstretch coming out of turn No. 2. It looks like a junk yard in Daytona. No. 52 Bill Baird lost control coming out of two and was collected by No. 68 Steve Blackburn. Everyone else couldn't get out of the way.
Wreck No. 1 update: Six cars are out of commission on the backstretch, but there are others with damage. This all happened behind Danica, who was being scored in 14th place at the time of the wreck.
Danica Fun Fact: Danica's parents are T.J. and Bev Patrick. Danica won the 2008 Kids' Choice Award for favorite female athlete.
Wreck No. 1 update: Still under yellow. Danica is being scored in 13th with 11 of 80 laps complete. Good news from the wreck. No. 17 Hal Martin was involved in the crash and he was pitting ahead of Danica. Danica will now have easy on/off access to her pit stall the rest of the way. The race leader: pole-sitter James Buescher of Plano, Texas.
Danica Fun Fact: Danica was a cheerleader at Hononegah Community High School near Beloit, Ill., in 1996.
Wreck No. 1 update: 10 drivers were involved. Butch Jarvis, Russ Dugger, Chase Mattioli, Hal Martin, Tim George, Jr., Bill Baird (started it all), Chad Hackenbracht, Leilani Munter (another female), Milka Duno (another female), Josh Richards.
Leilani Munter is from Rochester, Minn., and she started the race in 24th.
GREEN FLAG: 4:07 p.m. Danica is running 13th, the race leader is James Buescher. 17 of 80 laps in the books.
CAUTION: No. 22 Dakoda Armstrong gets helped around on the restart in turn No. 1 right in front of Danica! Danica gets through, Armstrong gets t-boned hard by Craig Goess. The field is under caution again.
SPEED REPORT: Armstrong had a tire going down and was tyring to get out of the way when he was bumped from behind by another driver. Both Armstrong and Goess, who slammed into Armstrong, are out of the race. Not sure yet where Danica is being scored. My guess is 12th.
Wreck No. 2: Waltrip is praising Danica's driving prowess for getting out of the way of Armstrong. It was really nothing impressive. Armstrong had a right rear tire go down and spun towards the bottom of the track. Danica simply drove by on the high side. Wow. Danica is being scored in 12th.
Danica Fun Fact: Danica is married to Paul Edward Hospenthal, who had been her physical therapist. Apparently, Danica suffered a yoga incident. Danica converted to Roman Catholicism to marry 'ol Paul in 2005.
I think this race might just go the distance under the caution flag. Yawn. This is not exactly Sprint Cup. Twenty-five of 80 laps are in the books and we've had a whopping 7 laps of green-flag racing. 4:22 p.m.
GREEN FLAG: 4:23 p.m. Buescher has led all 25 laps so far.
CAUTION: Good Christmas. This is a circus. We completed a single green-flag lap and Jesse Smith cut a tire down and went high in turn No. 4. Jill George in her No. 48 car went low to avoid and got on the apron. George's car lost control, flew back onto the track and flipped over. Twenty-seven of 80 laps are in the books. Apparently, Jill is a chiropractor from Cedar Falls, Iowa. She'll need one after that stunt. Wonder if she cracks her own back? Danica, believe it or not, is actually looking pretty good compared to the rest of the goofballs out there.
RED FLAG: The race is being red flagged after that last incident. The cars are stopped on the backstrecth. My guess this is being done because the people that paid money to get in the gate probably want to see some sort of racing, not just caution laps ticking away. 4:32 p.m.
If anyone's watching the race on SPEED, Danica looked rather unamused sitting under the red flag on the backstretch. Her in-car camera was on as she rolled her eyes and gazed out the driver's side window. Wendy, one of SPEED's pit road reporters, said Danica asked Tony Eury, Jr. (Danica's crew chief) how long these red flags typically last and if she should keep her two-way radio on. Rookies. Apparently, the red flag is to repair damage to the turn No. 4 fence.
The race's average speed is an incredible 89.301 mph. Caution flags are killing it. Polesitter James Buescher qualified at 181.543 mph. Buescher has led all 27 laps to this point. Danica hasn't yet cracked the top 10 but she's close in 12th.
Danica Fun Fact: Danica dropped out of high school, but attained the coveted GED.
The red flag has been lifted. Now under caution, Danica pitted for fuel only and is being scored in sixth. There is something amiss with her tachometer, so she's struggling with keeping pit road speed. She wasn't penalized for speeding.
GREEN FLAG: Lap 32 of 80. 4:58 p.m. Danica is finally in the top 10.
LAP 34: Danica is up to fifth position, after coming off the yellow line and is now running near the top.
LAP 40: At the halfway point, Danica has settled back down to the yellow line on the bottom in sixth place. Bobby Gerhart is leading. Buescher has slid back to ninth.
CAUTION NO. 4: Some more bumping, banging, spinning and skidding. 43 of 80 laps are complete. Nine-time ARCA champ Frank Kimmel was involved while running 13th, but appears to be able to continue. Nick Igdalsky spun coming out of turn No. 2 in a seperate incident. Danica, even with her inexperience, is looking more and more like a veteran driver out there. She's making wise choices and she's not looking to shake things up. I feel like she just wants to learn what she can and get her car to the finish line in one piece. I've got to admit, I didn't think this is what I'd be seeing. So far, I've been impressed. But this is the Big Top ARCA Circus. Nationwide will be a different story.
GREEN FLAG: 5:15 p.m. Danica is still in sixth. Gerhart is still your race leader. It's going to start to get interesting with 33 laps to go.
LAP 50: Danica got shuffled out of the single-file line up front and looks to drop out of the top 10. She's in 10th, but will probably wind up in 13th in the next few laps. Danica's car is a little loose and it's not drafting well. Alli Owens, another female driver, is currently running third. Owens is from Daytona Beach.
DANICA SAVES IT!!!: Danica just spun through the infield grass through the tri-oval after making contact with Nelson Piquet on lap 54. She didn't hit anything, but she did bring out the fifth caution of the race and will start at the rear of the field. Danica has suffered minor damage, but she could still get back in the hunt. Piquet came down on Danica's right front while battling for position on the front strecth. Totally not her fault. She's impressing me. Heck of a save from keeping that car off the wall. Wow. And that time that wow was for real. Danica has a right-front fender rub.
GREEN FLAG: 5:27 p.m. 24 laps to go. Gerhart is still leading. Danica is being scored in 20th.
CAUTION NO. 6: Barry Fitzgerald just rolled hard coming out of turn No. 2 with 22 laps to go. His car got loose and Fitzgerald flipped five times. He looks to be okay.
Danica Fun Fact: In 2007, Danica was picked up for driving 57 in a 40 and was ordered to attend traffic school. In 2008, a speeding ticket for driving 54 in a 35 cost her $196.
Kudos to Lennie, for posting the first comment after 2 hours, 35 minutes into this live blog. I'll buy you a Bud man, or gal.
GREEN FLAG: 17 laps left. 5:37 p.m. Gerhart is in the lead, Danica is back in 23rd and appears as if she won't be a factor.
12 LAPS LEFT: I was wrong. Danica has moved up to 12th and she's catching the lead pack.
9 LAPS LEFT: Danica is up to seventh! She's cutting through the front pack, but Gerhart looks to be tough to beat up front. Great recovery by Danica. Impressive.
5 LAPS LEFT: Danica is up to fifth! She could win this thing!
FINISH: Gerhart wins it, Danica in her No. 7 GoDaddy.com Chevy finished 6th. It was apparent in the closing laps nobody really wanted to work with her, but she held her own. I was thinking this would be an epic fail for Danica, but she proved a lot today. I'm impressed, and I've been watching this racing stuff for awhile. ARCA is still not Nationwide or Cup racing, but she can handle a stock car. Now we'll see how she'll do against a lot stiffer competition, maybe next Saturday in the Nationwide series at Daytona.
Danica post-race comments: "I was pretty excited to go from last back to the top 5. The car felt pretty good, that was really fun. GoDaddy car dosen't look very pretty, but it was fun."
This concludes the Danica Dance live blog. Peace out Jimmie town.

U.S. Is Urged to Overhaul Its Approach to Protecting Oceans
By ANDREW C. REVKIN
Published: June 5, 2003
WASHINGTON, June 4— A private commission including scientists, fishermen and elected officials called today for big changes in federal ocean policies to curb harm to America's marine resources from coastal building, polluted runoff and what the panel described as destructive fishing practices.
The group, the Pew Oceans Commission, urged the Bush administration and Congress to develop legislation creating a single agency for oceans and consolidating what is now, it said, a fragmented ''hodgepodge of narrow laws'' administered by a host of agencies.
''Without reform, our daily actions will increasingly jeopardize a valuable natural resource and an invaluable aspect of our national heritage,'' the commission concluded in its report, which is available online at www.pewoceans.org.
The report was hailed by environmental campaigners and scientists who have noted similar maritime harm around the world, but was attacked by organizations representing fleets of big trawlers, whose practices it sharply criticized.
Some of the most significant problems cited in the report were the continuing damage to coral and other seabed life from bottom-scouring trawls, along with such nets' wasted ''bycatch'' of unpopular or undersize fish, which die as a result and are discarded.
The commission recommended a moratorium on trawling in areas that have not yet been fished, until an assessment at each of the possible effects on marine life.
''This would shift the burden of proof and require the extractive industries to prove there's no harm, or at least minimal harm, before they trawl,'' said one commission member, Roger T. Rufe Jr., a retired Coast Guard vice admiral.
Another serious problem, the report said -- and one that has eluded effective regulation -- is the diffuse but extensive runoff from agriculture, lawns and roads. Oil and other contaminants pooling at gas stations and in parking lots build up in sea life, the panel noted. Further, nutrients from fields unbalance ecosystems and sometimes cause vast quantities of marine life to die off; the so-called dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico near the mouth of the Mississippi has been attributed in part to such runoff.
The commission, financed by the Pew Charitable Trusts, had 18 members, among them Gov. George E. Pataki of New York. Its chairman was former Representative Leon E. Panetta of California, chief of staff in the Clinton White House, who said at a news briefing today that he hoped the panel's recommendations would be taken up by a government commission created by Congress three years ago to study all marine-related federal policies. The report of that commission, whose expertise mainly involves the mineral resources beneath the sea rather than the living resources inhabiting it, is due this year.
The Pew commission spent two years meeting with people in maritime communities from Hawaii to Maine. It concluded that the country's major marine regions could best be preserved by establishing ''regional ecosystem councils,'' representing an array of viewpoints, that would produce enforceable plans suited to local conditions.
It also called for a national network of marine reserves where fishing would be banned. Recent research has shown that such reserves can act as nurseries that then bolster fish populations in nearby waters.
Some operators of fishing boats criticized the report's proposals. Robert Lane, who owns two trawlers berthed in New Bedford, Mass., said the panel's criticism of trawling was unfounded. He noted that recent federal reports showed that many fish and shellfish on George's Banks, the once-decimated fishing grounds off New England, were rebounding.
The two fishermen on the commission, neither of whom works in trawling, represent a small subset of the industry, said Mr. Lane, a director of the Trawlers Survival Fund, a group of boat owners in southern New England. ''They've set fisherman against fisherman and are bashing one particular type of fishing,'' he said. He said he agreed with the points that the report made about pollution and coastal environmental damage.
One fisherman on the panel, Pietro Parravano, defended the report and said that far from being a threat to fishing, adoption of its proposals would help maintain commercial harvests. ''There's nothing here that mandates a restriction in fishing,'' said Mr. Parravano, who fishes for crab, salmon and rockfish out of Half Moon Bay, Calif., and is the president of the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen's Associations. ''What it does is encourage the sustainable use of fishing.''

- Landfall mayor raises ruckus with talk of switching police
Landfall's mayor is changing his story about his reasons for ending the city's contract with the Maplewood Police Department.
Greg Feldbrugge says he wants to cancel Maplewood's contract for police services in the mobile-home community of 680 because of complaints that include racial profiling. Since April, he has concealed those complaints to protect Maplewood from negative publicity, he said.
"I was trying to take the high road," Feldbrugge said. "There were a lot of issues that were demeaning to the city of Maplewood. I did not want a media circus."
The revelation sparked an outcry among residents who support Maplewood police.
"Feldbrugge is lying," said Don Dunn, a 20-year resident and opponent of the mayor. "There is no racial profiling, and there have never been any complaints about it."
Maplewood Police Chief Dave Thomalla confirmed that he had received no complaints about racial profiling -- or any charges related to the other items on Feldbrugge's list of complaints.
Feldbrugge said he showed the list to Thomalla in April. "He said, 'I am not even going to look at any of this,' " said Feldbrugge. "That sealed the decision to switch police departments."
Feldbrugge says he told Thomalla he was not going to release the list to the public.
"I said the story that I am going to release is we want to go to Washington County to save a couple thousand dollars, and we will leave it at that," Feldbrugge said.
For the past several months, Feldbrugge has led an effort to switch the city's contract police services to Washington County.
Publicly, he said the switch would save money, improve response times and be more efficient because Landfall is in Washington County.
Those reasons struck many Landfall residents as flimsy. Maplewood had provided police services to Landfall for 19 years, with few complaints from residents.
In April and May, Landfall conducted two surveys to assess public support for Maplewood police -- one showing a majority supported the Maplewood police, the other showing it didn't.
None of the survey respondents knew about Feldbrugge's other reasons for the switch, including the racial-profiling charge. But Feldbrugge said city council members knew and on May 22, they voted to suspend the contract with Maplewood.
On Thursday, June 28, Feldbrugge said he decided to tell the complete truth about the complaints because Maplewood has not taken appropriate action to address them.
Feldbrugge said the racial profiling complaint stems from a recent incident in which a Hispanic man was stopped by a Maplewood police officer.
The man was asked to remove his shirt, so the officer could check for gang-related tattoos. "I wouldn't want to take off my shirt on the side of the road," Feldbrugge said.
Thomalla said that the officer was looking for a suspect with the tattoos and that the request was proper and routine.
Another complaint was related to an officer asking for a list of people being evicted from their mobile homes. Feldbrugge said that is none of the police department's business.
Thomalla said the request was made because an officer wanted to know which units were vacant, so he could pay special attention to them.
"You can take things like this and turn them any way you like to suit your needs," Thomalla said.
Another complaint said that a resident was impersonating a police officer and the police department was slow to respond.
Another alleged that an officer told a city employee that Feldbrugge was "doing drugs and selling drugs." Thomalla said the officer was referring to a previous arrest of Feldbrugge for possession of marijuana more than 20 years ago.
Other complaints state that an officer kicked in a screen door of a home and didn't respond to a noise complaint or a complaint about a drunken resident.
Overall, Thomalla said, he is mystified by the charges. No complaints related to Feldbrugge's allegations have been received by the department, he said.
"I think they are trying to use this as ammunition to get out of their contract," Thomalla said.
Thomalla said Landfall will not be able to suspend the Maplewood contract without a 180-day notice -- which hasn't yet been given. That means Maplewood probably will be providing police services until the end of the year.
"Our city council told our city manager that a contract is a contract," Thomalla said.
Feldbrugge said he was meeting with Maplewood officials to negotiate to end the contract effective July 1.

OUTLINE: A stag drinking water at a stream—reflection—admires beautiful horns—hate thin legs—hounds—runs for life—life—horns caught fast in the branches of a bush—hounds catch and kill him—dying thoughts.
A stag was once drinking water at a spring. He saw his reflection in its clear water. He was greatly pleased to see his beautiful horns. But he did not like his lean thin legs. Just then he saw some hounds running towards him. He felt the danger he was in, and was off like the wind. His ugly legs carried him so swiftly that, very soon, the hounds were left far behind. He saw a thick forest in front of him. He rushed into it to hide himself. But his beautiful horns were caught in the branches of a tree. He tried to free himself but could not. He was held a prisoner, until the hounds reached the spot to make an end of him. His ugly legs were of great help to him. But his graceful horns were the cause of his death.

Many amateur woodworkers have asked themselves the question whether they could turn their hobby into a profit generating enterprise. Woodworking as a business has obvious appeal because it takes something that you are already doing for free and enjoy doing and making money off it. However there are some things you need to think about before your start woodworking as a business. Here you will learn what you need to know to set up your own woodworking business.
The first thing you want to think about is whether you want to do custom woodworking or whether you would prefer to create a line of wood products. Both of these types of businesses have their advantages and their disadvantages. With a custom woodworking business the margins tend to be higher and the work is more varied. You will also get longer projects so you will have a better idea of how much work you have for yourself for the coming months.
When you produce a line of premade wood products you will have the advantage of a more varied customer base as well as less interaction with your clients. This can in some ways make for a more reliable business model because you are not putting yourself in the position where if one client is unable or unwilling to pay that it will upset your business too greatly. However you do not have the same predictability of the work ahead of you. You are only as good as yesterday's sales and so some people prefer a custom woodworking model. One other advantage of selling wood products is that you can operate the business as a part time venture. Because you can work on your products in the evening after your full time job or on the weekend you can add to your existing income without having to take the risk on a woodworking business that may not succeed.
With either type of woodworking business you want to think about what kind of products or services you are going to specialize in and what your unique selling point is going to be. One of the mistakes that many woodworkers make is to try and be all things to all people. Instead you want to specialize and emphasize your uniqueness. One of the ways that you can do this is to use your region or heritage as a selling point. For example traditional German craftsmanship or the way that people tend to think of Amish products as being of higher quality. The more you can distinguish yourself the less you will need to have to compete on price which will enhance the profits from your business and its long term sustainability. So before beginning your woodworking business, think about exactly what kind of woodworking business you are going to run. What will your unique selling proposition be?
After you have decided on what type of products you are going to produce you need to work out what you need to build these and where you are going to work? Most woodworkers begin their operations from home and this is a good low risk way to get started. Provided you are using this space for your work you can still deduct the costs as a business expense. Setting up a woodworking business from home can be worthwhile from the tax deductions alone!
After you have decided where you will work you need to think about how you are going to market to your customers.

Glendale, AZ (SportsNetwork.com) - Captains are expected to produce in big situations, but this seemed out of Shane Doan's control.
Doan broke his stick, but was the only skater to score in a four-round shootout as the Arizona Coyotes beat the Anaheim Ducks 2-1 on Saturday night, knocking off the NHL's top team in a goofy ending.
The blade of Doan's stick snapped off as he fired a shot at Frederik Andersen, who got a piece of the splintered wood with his shoulder but whiffed on the puck as it trickled -- tamely -- past his left pad and inside the goal post.
After Devan Dubnyk stoned Ryan Getzlaf at the other end to seal the win, Doan was all smiles.
"I think that's the old exploding stick trick," he told a TV reporter on the ice after being named the top star.
Zbynek Michalek scored his first goal of the season for the Coyotes, who got their fourth win in the last 14 games (4-8-2). Dubnyk made 36 saves, including 18 in the third period.
Arizona has won two in a row at home after dropping nine straight.
Rene Bourque scored for Anaheim, which is 2-2-1 since a seven-game winning streak. Andersen had 28 saves, but was thrown by Doan's fluky shootout goal.
"For a split second, I followed his blade and the puck goes the other way," he said. "It's a bad bounce but you can't do much about it."
Both goals came within a 73-second span in the first period. Getzlaf set up Bourque with a pass into the slot to open the scoring and Michalek tied it at 10:29 with a blast from the high right side that was too much for Andersen.
The Ducks have an eight-game point streak against Arizona (6-0-2) ... After
playing eight of their last 10 on the road, the Ducks start an eight-game

WouldYouRockThis.com creator Brandon Graham was invited to speak with students at the High School of Fashion Industries (HSFI) in New York of Friday. Ms Dahill, HSFI librarian, organized this event after meeting Brandon at the Andre Studios Fashion Illustration Digital Archive event in February. Ms Dahill connected Brandon with HSFI fashion illustration teacher, Mr. Carranza, to organize a presentation of WouldYouRockThis.com for his students. Not only did Brandon discuss WYRT, but he gave the students a list of resources that could point them in the right direction to becoming a better fashion illustrator. Mr. Carranza shared some of the pieces from his students' last project where they had to illustrate accessories – what a talented class to say the least.
Kiamesha Smalls, WYRT Operations Mgr and alum of HSFI, also joined in on the presentation by sharing her experience applying to FIT after graduating from HSFI.

Mic not working and other sounds issues for HP Envy m6-1125dx Windows 8
I recently updated my audio driver with whatever the HP Support Assistant asked me to. After wards, I noticed my mic on my headset would cut in and out and now it does not work at all.
Also, my speakers seem to be stuck on the "default device" even when I have headphones. I noticed this was a problem when I was running a skype call and the sound from everything else came out of my normal speakers.
The last problem I have run into is that I hear this weird popping noise everytime some kind of communication program runs. It seems like my computer is shutting out some part of the sound from my headphones automatically, even if there is no communication going on.
Re: Mic not working and other sounds issues for HP Envy m6-1125dx Windows 8
Hello rhoeh,
Take a look at this document and let me know if the troubleshooting steps help resolve your issue.
Good luck!

Ray Charles, who died at age 73 on June 10, 2004, lives on in America's collective inner ear. So much so that it's a challenge to think of anyone else who ever performed such songs as "Georgia On My Mind," "What'd I Say" and "You Don't Know Me." And if anyone other than Charles ever sang a more heartfelt, heart-stirring version of "America the Beautiful," I haven't heard it. Perhaps there is no more telling measure of the man's musical genius than that in a business where the bond between audiences and performers is as much visual as vocal, we listened to Charles and watched him during his long career without ever once making eye contact. In this singer's case, the window to the soul was the ear, not the eyes.
But who could take their eyes off Ray? He had the nonchalance of transcendent talent—he could make brilliance look easy. "Music to me is just like breathing," Charles once told an interviewer. "It's part of me." And when we watched him sway to the rhythm of his songs like some living metronome, we focused on his jubilant smile and ever-present sunglasses. Those lenses were both fact and metaphor, reflecting his audiences as his songs reflected the emotions of fans who spanned generations.
In September 2004, John Edward Hasse, curator of American music at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History (NMAH), and Melinda Machado, the museum's director of public affairs, visited the Los Angeles studio built for Charles in 1962 where the singer recorded his songbook of unforgettable hits. The pair hoped to acquire an object symbolizing the performer who orbits in the galaxy of Bing Crosby, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald. "We had decided," Machado says, "that if there was only one thing we could get, it had to be a pair of Ray's sunglasses."
Joe Adams, an actor who was Charles' longtime manager and the designer of many of his performance outfits, arranged the visit. "As we walked in," Machado recalls, "I felt that Ray Charles was very present." Hasse, the founder of national Jazz Appreciation Month and an accomplished musician himself, got a chance to play a series of blues improvisations on one of the studio pianos. "I was inspired just to be there," he says.
The custom-made jackets and tuxedos Charles wore for concerts and television appearances hung in a large, open closet. His collection of sunglasses was in a cabinet against one of the walls. "Ray liked variety," Adams said, "so he wore different styles." But to Hasse and Machado, a particular pair, with wide earpieces, seemed the most familiar and characteristic...Ray's Ray-Bans.
Adams donated the glasses—as well as three stage costumes, a Yamaha KX 88 keyboard marked in Braille, a chess set for the blind and two concert programs—in a ceremony at the museum this past September 21. Visitors to NMAH can see them through the summer at an exhibition titled "Ray Charles: The Genius." In one of two glass cases, a mannequin wears a gold-sequined dinner jacket and black trousers. Where the mannequin's head should be, the famous shades float in midair at eye level. "The exhibition," says Adams, "brings back a lot of memories...good ones. We covered a lot of ground together." To which those of us who still see ourselves reflected in the glasses of one of our brightest stars might simply add: "Amen."

My sister and her family went to the pet store, but she had to leave for work. She told her husband they'd further discuss getting a puppy when she got home. Apparently he couldn't wait, and left the pet store with, not one, but 2 puppies!! This picture was taken soon after. This little angel is half of the pair. My daughter fell in love with her right away!! She's such a great little cuddler and just so sweet.

Wasted money
EDITOR: Oxymoron, or just moron, moron? Having been an educator for 30-plus years, I have seen standardized testing come and go. Here we go again — STAR testing out, and districts are being given money to learn and implement a new test for students ("Common core offers lesson in common sense," Editorial, Sunday). I am sorry, but standards testing shows standard, no matter how you wrap it.
Classrooms are overcrowded, teachers haven't gotten raises for a decade and don't have enough supplies (even toner, paper and pencils these days.) Tell me the logic to pouring so much money into testing, again, when teachers could use that money to better prepare students for testing — with smaller class sizes and materials and whatever extra help they could get.
I don't believe we even have a benchmark in California for standards when school districts are going bankrupt.
Santa Rosa
World's &'peace force'
EDITOR: President Barack Obama is threatening to bomb Syria in the age-old habit of killing people to avenge the killing of people. And so the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize adds another piece to the puzzle of the ongoing bloody history of humanity.
The U.S. is not viewed as an honest broker of human rights in the Arab world. It is rightly viewed as a hypocrite. It supports dictators and not innocent civilians when convenient. It turns a blind eye to atrocities by allies.
Instead of being the world's police force, why don't we become the world's peace force? Would this be easy? No. The U.S. has gotten used to the lens of its own economic interests and "needs." Would this bring an immediate end to violence between countries and factions? No. The world is heavily armed to feed its habit and habits are hard to break. Would it work? Who knows? It has never been tried.

Native American Art
Nineteenth Century Haida Art
I have taught art history at the University of Washington since 1985 and have a joint appointment as Curator of Native American Art at the Burke Museum. My research, teaching, and curatorial work center on the Native arts of the Pacific Northwest Coast, in particular nineteenth century Haida art. Since 2003, I have directed the Bill Holm Center for the Study of Northwest Coast Art at the Burke Museum, a globally accessible learning center to promote scholarly research on Northwest Coast Native art, increase Native and public access to research resources, and foster appreciation and understanding of Native art of the Pacific Northwest Coast.
I am currently researching the set of Skidegate Haida house and pole models made in 1892 for the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago (see link at right under multimedia publications). Twenty-nine model houses, most with frontal poles, and 16 free-standing model poles were commissioned by James Deans for the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. This is a collaborative project with the Skidegate Haida community, the Haida Gwaii Museum in Skidegate, B. C. to develop a traveling exhibit of the house models, and document them in a book. This research has been partially funded by the UW Royalty Research Fund, Canadian Embassy Senior Fellowship, National Endowment for the Humanities, and UW College of Arts and Sciences.

Australia's central bank hints at cutsComment on this story
Australia's central bank Tuesday said further interest rate cuts were possible, but stood by its decision earlier this month to leave them on hold, citing recent improved data on the global economy.
The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) last cut its official cash rate by 25 basis points in October to 3.25 percent, a low not seen since late 2009 when it first resumed hiking them after the global financial crisis.
"Members considered that further easing may be appropriate in the period ahead," the RBA said in the minutes of its November 6 meeting released Tuesday.
"However, with prices data for the September quarter slightly higher than expected and recent information on the world economy slightly more positive, the board judged that the stance of monetary policy was appropriate for the time being."
The RBA has cut 100 basis points from the rate throughout 2012 and said these were still working their way through the economy.
On the global economy, the central bank said recent news was "somewhat more positive" than it had been.
The bank pointed to improvements in China after various stimulus measures, while the US was showing moderate growth, adding that a solution to the fiscal cliff of tax hikes and spending cuts "could result in better growth prospects".
In Europe it said recent policy announcements had helped to bolster financial market conditions, though economic activity there remained weak.
Domestically, inflation in the September quarter was a little higher than expected, with the underlying figure about 2.5 percent over the year, while unemployment was up slightly in September at 5.4 percent.
"Overall, growth of the Australian economy had slowed from an above-trend pace earlier in the year, with recent indicators of activity suggesting that economic growth was more moderate in the September quarter," it said.
Last month the government cut its real economic growth forecast - from 3.25 percent to 3.0 percent - as weaker global conditions hurt revenues in the mining-driven economy. - Sapa-AFP

Ascarate Lake is now a no-fishing zone.
The Central El Paso lake tested positive last week for golden alga, which is toxic to fish and has led to postponing any game fishing for the next two to four weeks.
Mandy Scott, a fisheries biologist with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department in San Angelo, said a sample of water tested positive last Thursday for a bloom of golden algae, also known as chrysophytes.
Golden alga can be lethal to fish because it produces toxins that prevent fish from breathing through their gills, Scott said. It is not toxic for humans.
"It produces a cocktail of toxins for fish," Scott said. "Fish that have been killed by this will bleed from the gills and the fin area."
The bloom is usually caused by winter weather, drought or poor-quality water, Scott said.
"It's hard to predict when the bloom will subside," Scott said. "It usually goes for a couple of months, but sometimes it lasts only a couple of weeks."
The timing could not be worse, said park director Ray Chavez, because a children's fishing event and a fresh stocking of trout were recently scheduled for Ascarate Lake.
The stocking of trout was scheduled for last weekend and the children's fishing event for March 16.
"It's a shame because we were hoping to have the kids' fishing event and drop trout," Chavez said. "We will wait for warmer weather and resume the kids' fishing event."
But this was the last chance to stock the lake full of trout, Chavez said.
Ascarate Lake tested positive for golden algae last February when 176 fish were killed. This year about 50 fish have been killed.
Chavez said Scott had suggested regular testing of the lake, and that allowed park officials to catch the golden algae bloom before the lake was restocked. The fish "probably would have suffered immediately," Chavez said. "Thank goodness that she suggested to test."
Alfred Lopez, who regularly fishes at Ascarate, said he noticed dead fish during the past couple of weeks. He is disappointed there will not be fresh fish to catch for a month or longer.
"That's a huge loss," Lopez said. "You should see the amount of kids that go to these tournaments. Last year my daughter got the largest trout. It's heartbreaking that they won't have that."

The Selle Italia saddle that came with my existing bike is really giving me the .... well you can imagine!
So I am looking to upgrade/swap. In an ideal world I would love to go with a Fizik Arione - but it is not an ideal world and I am looking at the Selle Bassano Mission:
Looks the business, but how does it feel is what I am wondering. Cannot seem to find much of anything about them on the net so I am wondering if anybody out there is riding one and has a view.

Newt Gingrich was asked this morning on Bill Bennett's Morning In America radio show about MSNBC's response to his views on Occupy Wall Street. (Over the weekend, Gingrich told the Occupy mob to "go get a job right after you take a bath." This morning, MSNBC pundits said the former speaker of the House expressed a "disgusting" view.)
Gingrich did not back down, explaining to Bennett "that line came from Ronald Reagan at Berkley during the student demonstrations when at one point he rolled down the window of his limousine and said, 'Don't you guys need to go take a shower.'"
He specifically said that his comments were "referring to folks who are out there blocking traffic, breaking windows, engaging in the kind of destructiveness that's totally unacceptable, hanging out . . . in parks they don't pay for . . .These are folks who are not really contributing to society."
And Gingrich continued his critique of the Occupy Wall Street protesters. "The folks who are camped out, I think, don't represent the vast majority of Americans who wonder why they aren't being productive and wonder why they are not being positive," Gingrich said. "My view is, they ought to be either getting a job, starting a small business, or going to school to learn a skill so that they could get a job, but sitting around and living off of others does not strike exactly a noble pursuit."

MILWAUKEE – American pianist Jeffrey Siegel continues the 2009-2010 Keyboard Conversations® Series with "Chopin the Patriot" on Wednesday, December 16, 2009, at Wisconsin Lutheran College. The performance begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Schwan Concert Hall.
This season, Siegel is "Celebrating Chopin" in his four-part series. The Polonaise and the Mazurka, two nationalistic Polish dances, had special meaning for this proud Polish composer. The program includes Three Polonaises: the tender G Minor of the 8-year-old genius, the brooding C Minor and the ever-popular heroic A Flat, as well as several buoyant and poignant Mazurkas, perhaps Chopin's most personal works.
Siegel's enthusiasm is contagious, his credentials are world-class and his virtuosity is astounding. His performances begin with an insightful and entertaining prologue on the music and its composer, are followed by a full performance of the works and end with a lively question and answer session.
Jeffrey Siegel is sponsored in part by the Wisconsin Arts Board and Waterstone Bank. The Schwan Concert Hall is located in the college's Center for Arts and Performance at 8815 W. Wisconsin Ave. Tickets are $33 general, $30 seniors and $12 students. To purchase tickets, call the WLC box office at (414) 443-8802 or visit wlc.edu/arts.
Since 1996, the Wisconsin Lutheran College Center for Arts and Performance has been providing a comprehensive program of performing and visual arts and educational and community events for students and the people of southeastern Wisconsin.

elcome to What If… Week! In honor of the alternate reality craziness that is Planar Chaos, we've decided to have a theme week all about alternate realities. Not one alternate reality mind you, but every column this week will be exploring a different what if scenario. And for each one, the author was allowed to pick the what if situation he wanted.
As a Monday columnist I get the chance to start this ball rolling, so let me begin by telling you my what if:
What if… Magicthegathering.com (and "Making Magic") had been around in Magic's early days?
You see, I had always wondered what early Magic would had been like if Magicthegathering.com (and well I guess the internet as we know it today) was around when Magic began. My column today is a glimpse at what that might have been like. In case you need it, here's a link to the Arabian Nights sortable spoiler. You'll understand why in a second.

The Hangover Part III edged out Fast & Furious 6 to top the box office in Spain last weekend. The two films combined to outgross the cumulative earnings of all other films in the top ten. The race between the comedy and the action caper shows more distance, however, when taking into account the films' per-screen averages. The Hangover Part III premiered with a $2.6 million weekend and $6,379 average across 397 screens. Fast & Furious 6 posted a strong $2.1 million weekend in its sophomore frame, reaching an $8.7 million cume. The latest Fast sequel edged out the comedy with 531 screens, but was only able to earn an average of $4,042 despite its wider release. Fast & Furious 6 has an outside shot at outgrossing Iron Man 3 in Spain; the superhero sequel has grossed $12.4 million after six weeks. If Fast & Furious 6 can keep its momentum, it could potentially become the biggest hit of the year at the Spanish box office.

Roger brought up a good question in the Hirsch 16 thread that I thought was worthy of its own thread. This is also something that I have thought about before because of its relevance to some of the whiskeys we know and love:
It seems to me that you would want a movable "roof" on these tanks to keep the airspace to a minimum. Either that, or displace the air with Nitrogen. Sure these tanks would probably be fine for a couple of months, but what about stuff that is held in stainless for years? (VWFRR anyone?)

Diamond vote shows question of character
So, the Lebanon County Republican Executive Committee has decided it knows what's best for the people of Lebanon County. They have decided to request Russ Diamond to withdraw from the November election.
It isn't up to an executive committee. It doesn't matter who or what kind of person wants to run for public office, it isn't for a small portion of our population to force someone off the ballot in order for its own agenda to take over.
What is the committee's agenda? It has to do with getting friends and relatives elected into office so committee members can influence the Republican side of our state government.
Diamond isn't a friend of the committee's. He won't do its bidding. That's why it wants him to withdraw.
This sounds like nothing more than a social club — and a lot like bullying. Bullying will never go away, in schools or society, as long as we have adults who sit on an executive committee controlling who and what we vote for.
The character of the individuals sitting on that executive committee is in question as they seek to destroy the political aspirations of a respected individual. Maybe not respected by those who sit on their holy thrones, deciding who shall succeed and fail, but respected by a large number of people in Lebanon County, just the same.
Their reputations would have done much better if this vote had never left their lips.
I know some people on the executive committee; I'm, frankly, surprised that they would go along with a vote to publicly remove someone from his God-given right to seek office. I am a Republican by choice and registered as such in Lebanon County. I have held office in Annville Township, but I do not vote by party and will never become a member of any Republican club, anywhere.
I vote for the person I want to represent me and my family. I was told a long time ago that if I became a member of the Republican Club in Lebanon County, I would be required to vote only for Republicans. I doubted that statement — until now.
We must work to include everyone
There are too many so-called religious people, like the Rev. Ron Salem, who insist their understanding is the truth, and all others are going to hell. We find this same mindset in ISIS, now bludgeoning Iraq.
Jesus was noted for his inclusivity — Samaritan woman (John 4); Canaanite woman (Matthew 16); woman caught in adultery (John 8). All in a male dominated and oriented society.
The Bible is always read selectively, or we would still refrain from eating or touching pig, kill our daughters for losing their virginity, and have all the slaves and concubines we desire — and keep our women silent in church.
We need inclusivity for all guests on this planet. At least, let's talk about it with civility and humility.
There are people who missed a memo
I can't understand why these terrorists organizations and Russia can't be more considerate of our dear president, Barack Obama. This is his planned, 14-day vacation to Martha's Vineyard; he is trying to improve his golf game.
I thought when Obama was elected in 2008 the world was in agreement: He had become the alpha and the omega. How rude of these people to forget that.

Hello, my name is Ashley. You do not know me but I was so sad to read about the loss of your son at such a young age I wanted to express my deepest sympathy for the family. At times like this, I have found Jesus Christs' words at John 5:28,29 to be very comforting where he promised that "the hour is coming when all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out...to a resurrection of life." We also have the comforting assurance at Revelation 21:3,4 that soon "God will wipe out every tear from our eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning, nor outcry, nor pain be anymore." I just wanted to share something encouraging that has helped my family in times of loss. You will be in my prayers.
I am so sorry for the loss of your precious baby. I am praying for the family.
Nancy Glessner
May God's love bring you peace as he holds you in His hand.

Melanie Curry
I received this from a friend when daddy passed: Sanctuary Whenever I'm feeling troubled, When the trials of life press in, When my spirit's overburdened With real or imagined sin, I seek out a sanctuary In some quiet, peaceful spot, Be it church or room or woodland Or a little garden spot: there, alone in contemplation, I recall a passage dear From the psalms or from the gospels, And I feel God's, my Friend and Savior, Through the act of prayer converse. Then the solace, strength and courage, Benisons from God above, Fill my being with contentment, In the knowledge of His love. And as I abide in patience, All my cares just drift away, And with spirit cleansed and quickened, I can turn to face life's fray with love,
The Day God Took You Home In tears we saw you sinking, And watched you pass away. Our hearts were almost broken, We wanted you to stay. But when we saw you sleeping, So peaceful, free from pain, How could we wish you back with us, to suffer again. It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone, For part of us went with you, The day God took you home Poem from Pat and Christy Hodge
Our hearts are breaking along with your. May God be with you during this time of sorrow. We will keep you in our prayers. Susie
Susan Shoffner
Dusty we are so heart broken over your loss, you are in our thoughts an prayers...Rhonda Zachary Bullard
Rhonda & Zachary Bullard
Renee, I can't imagine the pain you and your family must be going through!! Please know that my heart aches for you all. I'm praying that God will not only walk with you through this time but carry you when you feel you can't keep going. Again my very deepest heartfelt sympathy to you all!!
Janet "Aaron" Turner
Betty Youare in my thoughts and prayers.
In your sadness, may there be hope..., In your thoughts, may there be peace..., In your heart, may there be healing. (Psalms 55:22) Mark and Penny

"They are overwhelmingly white and Anglo, although a scattering of Hispanics, Asian Americans and African Americans combine to make up almost one-fourth of their ranks."
This is from today's long (and on the whole not bad) USA Today article on the tea parties and tea partiers. But there's something a little odd about that term "scattering." That "scattering" is (as is suggested later in the same sentence) pretty hefty—23 percent of tea partiers are, according to the survey, non-white Anglos. How does this compare to the nation's adults as a whole? They're 25 percent non-white Anglos. So tea partiers are—in this as in other respects—a startlingly representative demographic group.
And I, for one, look forward to chatting and picnicking with fellow tea partiers at the Proud to be American July 4th Tea Party on Independence Mall in Philadelphia on Sunday.

So, I wanted to let a laptop in a physcally public place access one folder
on a server in my LAN. What I did do was to go to every top-level share and
disallow access from the user account that would be logging onto the laptop.
This took the better part of a day. It works.
Then I went to the executables on the laptop I wanted excluded and did the
Then I blocked all users but two from logging onto the laptop.
Not a great method, but it works.
I'm surprised few others want to do stuff like this.
