Bucking national trends, venture capital on the rise in Michigan
Jon Zemke
Wednesday, September 30, 2015
Once upon a time, venture capital in Michigan was small and inconsequential. Today it's powering the Great Lakes State's new economy, growing at a time when the industry has shrunk. In this special report, we take a long look on what that means for our local entrepreneurial ecosystem.

I found an old copy of libFooID and decided to try and put it to some use. How is another question..
Anyway I came up with a little component that allows you to calculate FooIDs and save them to the file, as well as compare the FooID of two files. Some downloads below:
FooID binary (put this in your foobar2000 folder)
foobar2000 component version 0.3 (experimental)
foobar2000 component version 0.2 (experimental)
libFooID source
Update: Garf has restored the Foosic homepage now
I am not sure how this is useful.. Maybe finding matches within a set of files would be more useful (?) If someone actually downloads this have fun : P

Do you mean 0xC0000409? That's STATUS_STACK_BUFFER_OVERRUN... hmmm
"The system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in this application. This overrun could potentially allow a malicious user to gain control of this application."
Strange. Did all those files have the fingerprints saved to the file already?
I don't think there's anything wrong on my side, but I can't say what caused that.

Strange. Did all those files have the fingerprints saved to the file already?
I have a few possible causes
1. I had streams in my selected items (Edit: Judging by the speed it took without those, they are likely the reason it failed at first )
2. No, not all files actually had fingerprints
I'm trying again now... (Edit: Works fine!)
Is it possible to use NG grouping with the inserted silence entrys?

World's Ugliest Dog Died
RIP, Miss Ellie — An Ugly Dog Passes On
Like us on Facebook
One of my favorite events every June is the World's Ugliest Dog Contest at the Sonoma-Marin Fair. I've attended in 2008 and 2009 and had the chance to meet several of the peculiar pups and their owners, including Dawn Goehring and Miss Ellie. Sadly, this Chinese Crested pooch passed away at age 17 (!) this week before making a trip this month to CA to compete one last time.
Miss Ellie captured the Ugliest Purebred title in the 2009 semi-finals but lost to Pabst in the end and hopefully is frolicking away with the 2008 winner, Gus, in doggie heaven. RIP, sweet pup, you'll always be cute to me!

Toward an Agenda for Research on
Gary T.Henry, Melvin M.Mark
Using Christie's research as an example, the authors
describe a variety of forms that a more evidence-based
approach to evaluation theory could take and offer some
suggestions to help increase the amount and impact of
evidence in evaluation theory.
Evaluation seems to be almost everywhere these days. We read about the findings of large-scale program evaluations in the newspaper, we receive report cards on our neighborhood schools, we allow ourselves to be interviewed for evaluations of conferences we attend. Yet we know remarkably little about how evaluation is being practiced, why it is being practiced, by whom and where it is being practiced, and to what effect. As evaluators, we know a great deal about the evaluations that we conduct, and we may also know a fair amount about those evaluations that we come into contact with professionally, as citizens, or as participants. However, the big picture is less clear. Evaluators are unlikely to be able to say much descriptively about the size, scope, and shape of the evaluation enterprise—things like how many evaluations were completed last year, how much money was spent on evaluation, who did the evaluations, and how they were conducted. More troubling, if evaluators try to tell you anything deeper about the practice of evaluation, what they tell you almost certainly comes from their personal experience, interactions, reading, training, or intuition. The views you hear on the key issues in evaluation—such as what kind of evaluation to do in various circumstances, or when and why evaluation affects important actions—almost certainly are not based on rigorous, systematic evidence. Why not? Because there is a serious shortage of rigorous, systematic evidence that can guide evaluation or that evaluators can use for self-reflection or for improving their next evaluation.
This volume focuses on one new and noteworthy source of systematic evidence about evaluation: in Chapter One, Christina Christie presents her analysis of, first, the similarities or dissimilarities among the views of eight

Belfair Mom Hopes to Inspire Nationwide Fundraising for Somalia
BELFAIR - For more information about the Soapy Hands Open Hearts effort, contact Katie Knecht via email, firstname.lastname@example.com.
When the United Nations declared in July that southern Somalia was hit by famine and the worst humanitarian crisis in the world, aid started to flow in the country, despite humanitarian workers' limited access to the people.
For Belfair mom Katie Knecht, the resurfacing of the story in the news a few weeks ago was a call to arms. As she watched her Facebook friends share links about the situation, Knecht asked herself, "Is there anything we can actually do?"
She decided there was.
Knecht launched an initiative she called Soapy Hands Open Hearts with the idea of inspiring people all over to organize car washes, and spread the word through social networking.
"The idea is really simple — to use our networking sites to inspire one another to get out and actually do something about it," she said.
On Aug. 13, Knecht and a small group of family members and friends did just that. They got permission from Belfair's RiteAid store to use its parking lot for a car wash, and in a few hours raised $150 from the effort, to be donated to MercyCorps.
But the car wash was only part of her endeavor. Knecht created and posted a video on YouTube and has been trying to rally her Facebook friends.
She provides statistics in the video that 3.7 million of people in Somali are at risk from the famine, and an estimated 29,000 children under the age of 5 have died in the past three months and another 640,000 are malnourished. The five-minute video, which includes heart-wrenching photos of starving Somalia kids, ends with her challenge, "Our time is now. Get involved."
"The famine is at such a massive level that organizations are being tapped out, so there are a lot of starving kids," said Knecht, who has three children ages 3 to 7 and one on the way. "To me, that's unacceptable. It's out humanely duty to get involved."
Knecht said car washes are simple fundraisers everyone grew up with, using them for causes that go from sport teams to 4-H Clubs. She organized her own within just a couple of weeks, and walked around businesses with her five-year-old daughter to solicit donations.
Several businesses responded, including Lowe's home improvement store, which donated supplies, and Les Schwab, which donated a gift certificate that was raffled off.
"It's a lot harder than I remember to get donations for fundraising but it can still be done if you're persistent," she said.
In hopes to spur others into action, Knecht set up a Facebook event page under the name Soapy Hands Open Hearts, explaining her concept — starting a chain reaction of sorts with people organizing their own car washes across the country as well as be encouraged to donate and volunteer.
"On average a good car wash can raise anywhere from $100-$1,000 a day. Multiply that by each city that volunteers to help and we are looking at an event that has the potential to make a big impact," she wrote on the page.
Already, one of her friends has committed to a car wash, planned for Sept. 4 in Lacey, and others were considering it as well.
"It's something we can hopefully grow from. I'm really excited about the potential it can have," she said.
"A lot of people are concerned with the risks that come with doing fundraisers and the money not reaching the kids," she said. "I think worrying doesn't accomplish anything, it's letting the fear stop us from doing anything. We can't get hung up on that — those kids need the help right now."
A Belfair resident of about a year, Knecht said as a mother, she feels the Somali kids' starvation hits home.
"I look at the children in Africa, that age group in particular, being so weak that they have to be fed by their mother through a cup," she said. "I can imagine that being my child."
Knecht is looking at other fundraising ideas such as a clothing or Krispy Kreme sale and said part of the effort is to open people's hearts to giving. She encourages others to help anywhere they see a need, whether it's in their own country or outside.
"Somalia was our calling," she said. "The heart of our message isn't in money, government or any other worldly avenue. It's about humanity."

What do you think about gifted education programs in public schools? Are they a valuable resource for children who are highly intelligent, helping, as some say, to nurture the leaders of tomorrow, or are they elitist programs which exclude other children and potentially cause them to feel bad about themselves? If you had a gifted program in your school growing up, how did you feel about it?
Are gifted programs "elitist"?
Ideally, they wouldn't have G and T until about 3rd grade, which is when developmentally, it all "shakes" down if you will. Testing a 4 year old for gifted is highly dependent upon personality, development, and homelife. So, very non objective. And sort of bullshitty. By age of 8 I think it is more accurate (this is documented research btw). Sure, some kids aren't truly gifted and everyone else catches up by third. But what about the kids who are gifted? Or even the ones who are just ahead due to home life and whatever? Should they all have to be bored until third grade?
"Belief is not a substitute for arithmetic" -- Henry Spencer
Official DT Hopscotch Champion
Some of the states will take IQ or other standardized testing. But, yes, entrance into TAG is supposed to be based on ability rather than achievement. And then Honors is the opposite -- acheivement rather than ability. Of course, the two aren't completely unrelated.
"Belief is not a substitute for arithmetic" -- Henry Spencer

I will return after the game...if we lose, if we win I will be drunk in the street.
"Never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by ignorance or stupidty." Robert Heinlein; Logic of Empire, 1941.
Our kids voted on a name for the class. They all nominated different names and voted on their favorites. I thought it was a great idea. There's is called ICE (intelligent creative engineers- if I remember correctly). My bestie's son's school did that too, her son's is now called SPARK. I forgot what it stood for, but I like it.
Asshole Prevention is pretty much at the top of my Parental List of Important Things to Do. -Thropp
Are there really that many profoundly gifted 6 year olds that cannot be serviced in a regular differentiated classroom with a good teacher? My opinion is generally, no. It is a failing of the system if they can't accomodate a few kids who are ahead of the game until they start a G and T program in 3rd grade.
Anyway...I'm not in NYC, I am in burbs and from what I see the only kids who get extras and special things are the gifted and the resource kids. It is the Middle who get forgotten and no extras. But I understand that not every district is the same.
They are no more elitist than any other special ed program. I don't understand the question.
What special things are you referring to? And in what ways are the kids in the middle forgotten?
Another reason I hate the word "gifted" over something like "academically needy" is because my youngest who is in gifted gets treated in a way that is unfair to both his fellow classmates and to him.
Sure he's got a ridiculously high IQ but he is... how to put this nicely? -- A complete dipshit.
I literally have to check his clothes every single morning to make sure something isn't inside out or backwards and 90 percent of the time something is.
Where the gifted lable can be unfair to him is when he does his typical stupid stuff like losing a paper from the walk from his desk to the cubby across the room a teacher will say something like "Tommy you are in Gifted. I shouldn't have to worry about you." Well yes you do!! This kid needs to learn some organizational skills and needs some consequences for forgetting things. Instead the teachers cherish his high test scores aren't very hard hard on him
Where its unfair to his classmates is some very intelligent classmates who are super organized and do all their work and get A's can feel like they aren't very smart because they aren't "gifted" when reallly it's that their brains work in a different way.
I love that my kids get the extra enrichment and that the Gifted teacher is specially trained and knows that she has a class that is the equivalent to the Island of Misfit Toys, but I wish we could call it something else that isn't so off-putting

I read a lot, a mix of SF/F, other fiction and non-fiction.
Massage is another hobby - although a number of people have told me I should give up my day job and take up massage full time.
I've been polyamorous for many years, and was one of the founders of the Montreal Poly group in 2001. I've been with my 'primary' since 1995, and we had a daughter together in mid-2007. We live with my primary's OSO, who is taking an active parenting role with our daughter. I can highly recommend the 3 parents to 1 child ratio.
I don't expect anyone I'm seeing to take an active role in my daughter's life - in fact, it would have to be a very serious relationship before I'd consider that.

Event Details for: Double Moving Average Crossover
Tells Me: The price is generally in an established trend (bullish or bearish) for the time horizon represented by the moving average periods. Moving averages (MA) are used to smooth out the volatility or "noise" in the price series, to make it easier to discover the underlying trend. By plotting the average price over the last several bars, the line is less "jerky" than plotting the actual prices. In the double crossover method, a bullish event is generated when a faster moving average crosses above a slower moving average (21-bar MA crosses 50-bar, or 50-bar MA crosses 200-bar). In this state, the price is likely in an established uptrend. The opposite is true when the faster slips below the slower moving average, triggering a bearish event.
Event Date:
Jan 17, 2013
Opportunity Type:
Short-Term Bullish

Price Period:
21-day moving average crossed above the 50-day moving average.

Mix in some pretty tough odds about landing on a million-dollar prize slot, making it to the bonus round, landing on that prize slot again, and then solving a 12-letter puzzle with only four letters flipped, and it all adds up to the show's second million-dollar winner, report USA Today and Entertainment Weekly.

I'm building up a new (to me) Landshark and was planning on going with a standard compact 50X34. Then I ran across some great looking Velo Orange cranks that are apparently big with the loaded-touring crowd.
In reality, I seldom ride in my current 50X11 or 50X12 and I was wondering just how livable the 48 tooth large ring might be? Especially since I live in a hilly area and I'm more of a spinner than a big gear guy anyway. Perhaps a 48 big ring would give me more usable gears before I have to switch to the inner ring?
Any opinions?

Nashville at law: Firm says 'cozy' BlueCross-TMA ties cost it millions
Nearly a year after being sued by the Tennessee Medical Association and two of its physician members, a Franklin health care claims analysis business is firing back with a $2.5 million counterclaim.
In June of 2009, the TMA and doctors William Goodman and Mary Keown sued Health Research Insights, BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee and the Metro Nashville Board of Education for defamation, interference with business relationships and breach of contract.
According to the original complaint, HRI had contracted with the Board of Education to collect any overpayments made by its BlueCross-administered insurance plan to health care providers. After using its proprietary algorithm to identify "upcoding" — a process in which health care providers mis-classify health care services in order to receive larger reimbursements from health plans — HRI sought to collect overpayments from Goodman and Keown.
But the TMA and doctors argued that, contrary to HRI's assessment, the doctors received no overpayments and, in fact, HRI had no contractual right to come after overpayments in the first place. Currently, the original plaintiffs are seeking summary judgment against HRI, arguing that the deposition of an "independent coder" who analyzed the claims in question showed that Goodman and Keown billed every claim correctly.
Meanwhile, the school board has had the majority of claims against it dismissed and is waiting on a ruling on the rest, according to Adams and Reese attorney Timothy Gary.
"It's really unfortunate that the board was pulled into this and Metro was pulled into this," Gary said. "The folks who administered the plan are just trying to be sure that they complied with all their obligations."
But for the TMA and HRI, it appears the argument is far from over. Late last month, HRI filed a counterclaim of torturous interference against TMA, alleging that the physician association conspires with insurers like BlueCross to "suppress, eliminate and destroy competition and maintain artificial and noncompetitive prices for physician services" in Tennessee and Nashville, thereby interfering with HRI's business advantage.
The counterclaim says that, before HRI's mathematical tools hit the market, BlueCross had a "cozy relationship" with the TMA to allow TMA members and its individual physician members to earn "excessive, exorbitant and noncompetitive fees and incomes by upcoding claims for services rendered while BlueCross tacitly looked the other way or kept a blind eye to such upcoding when it involved administrative service contracts where the victim of such conduct and overpayment came from the employer group and not BCBST."
Because TMA and the physicians "acted with bad and evil motive" to suppress competition and maintain high prices, the counterclaim reads, HRI estimates it's been injured to the tune of $2.5 million, weakened as a competitor and forced to invest "substantial monies" to stay viable.
An attorney for TMA declined to comment and HRI's legal counsel did not return calls.
BlueCross' attorney, Robert Boston of Waller Lansden Dortch & Davis, said only that BlueCross is "disappointed that with all that's happening in the health care debate and evolution today, that it finds itself bogged down in this type of accusation and debate caused by a third party."
United States District Court
Terrell Parker v. Loews Nashville Hotel Corp. Terrell Parker is, seemingly, on a mission. The Williamson County woman has been the lead plaintiff in at least four class-action lawsuits filed in the past several years against the operators of automatic-teller machines.
The suit cites the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, a federal law requiring, among other things, operators of ATMs to disclose if a fee will be imposed for usage. Parker's earlier lawsuits ended with a settlement from First Citizens Bank and another settlement is pending against SunTrust Bank. A case filed last year against Regions Bank was dismissed with prejudice.
But banks aren't the only operators of ATMs. Parker's latest action is against the Loews Vanderbilt. On April 10, according to the complaint, Parker withdrew money from the ATM at the swanky West End hotel and was charged a $2.95 "terminal-owner fee."
"However, at the time of the above-described transaction, there was no notice posted "on or at" the ATM operated by Defendant apprising consumers that a fee would be charged for use of the ATM," the filing in U.S. District Court claims. "Because Defendant did not post the required notice, it was not permitted to charge a usage fee to Plaintiff and other class members."
The federal statute allows for the payment of actual damages — in this case, Parker and the joinders' $2.95 — as well as statutory damages of up to $1,000 per transaction. Parker is also seeking attorney's fees and costs.
Jackson attorneys Clinton Scott, J. Brandon McWherter and Justin Gilbert of the firm Gilbert Russell McWherter represent Parker. A case management conference with Judge Aleta Trauger is scheduled for July 12.

The deadline for receipt of all items as specified below is a month before the first full day of the annual conferences.
Anyone on the program who cannot present at the conference should notify the appropriate chair and commentator as well as the conference coordinator. Failure to do so has consequences. The Northern Great Plains History Conference written operating statement bans anyone who does not show and who does not submit appropriate notices from presenting for the next three years.
Length of papers: All presenters should emphasize brevity, because of the relatively short session times. Paper presenters and the commentator are all entitled to approximately equal times. Typically, the annual conferences have 90 and 120 minute time slots. Therefore, participants should adhere to the following formats:
|90 minutes
|2 papers and commentary
|20 minutes each.
|90 minutes
|3 papers and commentary
|15-17 minutes each.
|120 minutes
|2 papers and commentary
|30 minutes each.
|120 minutes
|3 papers and commentary
|22-23 minutes each.
These allocations allow time for introductions by the chair and audience participation.
Normally, it takes two minutes to read a typed double-spaced page with one-inch margins. Because of different font sizes, various reading speeds, and sometimes use of AV materials, all presenters should ascertain their delivery time in advance.
In order to facilitate determination of lengths, all papers should have full page texts (double-spaced with one inch margins) and endnotes rather than footnotes. Presenters should also report the word count of their texts to the session chair and commentator. (Each double-spaced page with one inch margins is about 280 words.)
Submit your paper and brief vita to both the chair and commentator. If you fail to meet the submission deadline, notify the chair and commentator of your anticipated submission date.
Submit any equipment request to the conference coordinator as soon as you have determined it. Such requests should be made no later than the paper submission deadline.
Be sure that all equipment is in working order before the start of the session.
Keep your presentation within the prescribed time limit.
If you have submitted your paper too late to allow the commentator adequate time to evaluate it, please inform the audience that the commentator will not be considering your paper because of your tardiness. Please confer with the commentator before making any such announcement, because that person may choose to comment despite your lateness.
You are also urged to send a copy of your paper to each of the participants in the session as a means of enhancing scholarly interchange.
Assess the length of papers and for any that are too long notify the presenter to adjust it and to send the revised copy to both you and the commentator.
Contact those who are tardy about submitting their papers ASAP.
If presenters do not submit papers and other materials make every effort to contact them and determine their status.
Inform the conference coordinator about any missing papers.
Manage the room ambience including such things as outside noises as well as those from heating or air-conditioning systems.
Briefly introduce yourself, the presenters, and the commentator.
Control the session—start and finish it on time and limit presenters to their allotted times. Ask presenters if they want you to time them and send cues.
Provide the opportunity for presenters to respond briefly to the commentator's remarks.
Direct, and, if necessary, stimulate audience questions and comments regarding papers and commentary.
Submit your vita to the session chair.
Be concerned mainly with providing a perspective for the papers and stimulating discussion.
In pointing out any shortcomings, please use constructive criticism. Refrain from such things as making snide remarks, using sarcasm or demeaning someone's inexperience.
Moderators should introduce all participants and otherwise manage the session.
All participants should send their short vitae to all other participants. Provide the moderator with a brief preview of your presentation.
Allow adequate time for audience participation.

Love Culture Sales Approved Over Creditor Objection
Love Culture Inc., the bankrupt clothing chain, won court permission to hold expedited store-closing sales, over the objection of unsecured creditors who said the sales will only benefit the womenswear retailer's secured lender.
A U.S. Bankruptcy judge in Newark, New Jersey, approved the sales today, according to a courtroom deputy. Love Culture sought the sales as part of an agreement with pre-bankruptcy secured lender Salus Capital Partners LLC, which is providing $12 million in bankruptcy financing on an interim basis.
Great American Group Inc. won an auction yesterday for the right to run the sales, beating out a joint venture of Hilco Merchant Resources LLC and Gordon Brothers Retail Partners LLC.
The unsecured creditors' committee, which includes mall owners General Growth Properties Inc. and Simon Property Group Inc., said Love Culture failed to show any benefit to the estate from selling inventory, "its primary and most valuable asset," only two weeks after filing for bankruptcy.
Once the inventory is sold, there will be almost no assets remaining for other creditors, the committee said in a filing. The proceeds shouldn't automatically go to Salus, the committee said. Rather, the company should use the money to pay the cost of administering the bankruptcy, it said.
'No Chance'
General unsecured creditors "have no chance of recovery once the agency agreement is consummated" and the bankruptcy financing is approved, the committee said.
Love Culture was founded in 2007 by Jai Rhee and Bennett Koo, former executives at retailer Forever 21, to sell affordable clothes and accessories to young women, according to its website. In 2010, the company started an online store. Two years later, it started the upscale Boutique Culture line.
The company filed for Chapter 11 protection July 16 in Newark. The retailer owes General Growth, the second-biggest U.S. shopping-mall owner, $3.9 million on unsecured obligations for store leases. It also owes Simon Property Group about $2 million and a Taubman Centers Inc. affiliate about $1.2 million, court papers show.
The case is In re Love Culture Inc., 14-bk-24508, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, District of New Jersey (Newark).
