So glad Tom was feeling cheered!
The pillow is beyond lovely….I wish I had designs that were Spoonflower worthy.
THANKS so much, everyone, for your good wishes. Seriously, it really does make a difference to know you are thinking of us. Tom felt a veritable wave of good karma when he sat down and read through your comments. We were both very cheered by them. Thanks!
I want to say thanks for something else too. I've been an admirer of Suzanne's work for a while, particularly her wonderful creature series. She had some fabric made up recently of her designs via spoonflower. The fabric looks amazing! So when she proposed a swap — a creature-cushion for a bucketload of good British tea — I immediately jumped at the chance.
A parcel containing this arrived yesterday and made me very excited. Isn't it fab? I'm really blown away by it. I feel I definitely got the better side of the deal. But then again, you really can't argue with a good cup of tea.
Suzanne's cushion now has pride of place on our sofa, and, perhaps appropriately, is doing a great job propping up the specimen that is Tom's poor hand. I love Suzanne's creatures even more now I can sit and stare at them. Never has an item of soft furnishings provoked so much thought for me! I've been sat there thinking about Suzanne's design process, about the materials she uses and effects that she creates, as well as about the feel of her work, which says so much about natural processes, decay and preservation. It is spooky, it is poignant, and it is witty too. (Her new cross-section series also illustrate this perfectly). But some of the other cushion-thoughts have been personal, and rather banal, as illustrated by the following anecdote.
Tom has several supermarket rituals. These are generally designed to wind me up, and involve him behaving like Benny Hill in the fruit and veg section (eg, asking "could you do with one of these?" while holding a large butternut squash in a suggestive manner at crotch height). Another ritual focuses on the jars of seafood in the 'speciality foods' section. He well knows that the sight of pickled creatures can reduce me to foolish levels of sentimentality and exploits this by waggling the jars of little octopi in my face and shrieking "SAVE US!" in a plaintive squid-like voice.
(yes, I actually took my camera to the store today to photograph these poor beggars)
The ritual concludes with one of those stereotypical exchanges of couples in supermarkets: viz, woman rolls eyes and whapps man with handbag, or whatever else comes to hand. A few weeks ago, though, I noticed a different sort of exchange going on in front of the SAVE US! jars. A young lad had picked one up, and was staring at the pickled creatures with wide-eyed fascination.
"Look!" he said to his mum, "they've got their heads on and everything!"
Suzanne's creatures perhaps don't provoke either of these reactions, but they do manage to be fascinating, while being rather melancholy too.
thanks Suzanne, I love the cushion!
So glad Tom was feeling cheered!
The pillow is beyond lovely….I wish I had designs that were Spoonflower worthy.
Sorry to hear of Mr. B's misfortune- but at least he has pie and a pretty pillow to cheer him up.
Oh WOW that fabric is amazing and so up your alley, right??
I love the supermarket ancedotes, has given me a chortle early this morning and I too become sentimental at the sight of octopi in jars… The cushion is fab.
Crikey – they don't sell octopi in Lidl!
Sorry to hear about Tom's accident – pies and tea sound like the feel-better fare right enough!
I'm afraid my first thought on seeing the pickled beasties was "Where can I get that?"
Your photos of the fabric are lovely.
your mentioning the dryad handicraft books a while back has led me on a wild, and also woolly, trip. i found a bound collection of about half of them, and have been delighted to read so many of them. tell Mr. T that this, from pamphlet #128, is what stumpy will be able to do, very very soon. in the meantime, enjoy.
hmmm. the html did not translate, so sorry. here's the link to what stumpy can do.
Ah yes, the crotch squash joke. It just never gets old.

Gina Lazarescu is a girl caugtht between an unknown past and a dark future. Will she stand in the gap against the rising evil? Or become victim to it?
Death is not a question. It is the answer. Welcome to a world that hides before your eyes.
1. As you read, did you recognize the Man from Kerioth's identity? What was the "fierce presence" he welcomed? How did his death coincide or conflict with your historical understanding?
2. Gina is a young woman dealing with a stern, superstitious mother. In what ways could you relate to Gina's struggle? Have you ever been scarred by similar relationships?
3. The Akeldama is a real place in Jerusalem. What significance is there in the fact that children were once sacrificed to Moloch there? Did the Akeldama Cluster gain strength from this, or do you think they contributed to that former evil?
4. Cal Nichols investigates the death of a young Norwegian, but later we see that he is also involved in Gina's childhood. What were your impressions of Cal? Why did he give Gina the pair of red orb earrings?
5. As the story progressed, did you wonder whose memories and whose blood was being unveiled in each section? What do you think about the biblical idea that "the life is in the blood"? Did the effects of the Nazarene Blood surprise you? Were they believable?
6. The Collectors have specific goals: to feed, breed, persuade, and possess. How did they accomplish these goals with Benyamin Amit and at the Constanta orphanage? The Romanian HIV outbreak of 1989 remains a mystery to this day. What did you think of the story's explanation?
7. Nikki Lazarescu has some secrets of her own. Did these make you more sympathetic toward her, or more frustrated with her treatment of Gina?
8. As the Houses of Ariston and Eros establish themselves, internal conflicts arise. How did these play out? How much of this was due to their human habitations, and how much to their roles as Collectors?
9. What did you think about the Collectors' ability to work through animal hosts? Is this a fictional tool, or does it have some other basis? They also begin to infest their prey, using thorns in a blasphemous form of communion. Are their thorns in your own life?
10. Did you relate in any way to Gina's struggle as she carried her child within? Do you, too, feel the sorrow and burdens of those around you?
11. When Gina's family life is turned upside down, how does she react? Did you see this as weakness or strength? Did you see her return to Romania as a good decision?
12. In the end, Gina has a choice to make. What were her options?

Katie Couric and hubby John Molner are definitely still in the honeymoon phase, but their actual honeymoon getaway will have to wait a bit.
The newlywed Yahoo news anchor (and former Today co-host) is heading to Colorado for the Aspen Ideas Festival, where on Sunday she'll chat on stage with Aaron Sorkin about "the risky business of writing."
This won't be all work and no play, though, for the 57-year-old blushing bride! A source tells E! news that Molner is accompanying Couric on her trip, and later this summer, they pair will very likely "do some international travel."
NEWS: Five things to know about Katie Couric's husband John Molner
But when will these two get a chance to celebrate their nuptials away from it all?! That won't be until December, Couric revealed during a May 2014 appearance on The Wendy Williams Show. At the time, New Zealand was the front-runner for their honeymoon getway. "I've never been there and always been on my bucket list," the mom of two said. "We'll take a trip!"
But not to worry, Molner friends! Although only family was invited to the couple's Hamptons' wedding on Saturday, Couric said they plan to "have a big blowout party" this fall, adding, "That's where we'll be dancing!"
Sounds like a plan!

Fabulous Adventures In Coding
Eric Lippert is a principal developer on the C# compiler team. Learn more about Eric.
[This is part of a series on generating every string in a language. The previous part is here. The next part is here.]
OK, first things first. Let's assume that we have a string that contains a grammar that has already been rewritten into our "nice" form, where there are exactly two terms in every production rule. We can easily write a parser that analyzes such a string. I'll make a dictionary that maps each rule onto a list of two-symbol productions. So the grammar:
is turned into the dictionary:
Here we go:
sealed class Grammar{ private Dictionary<string, List<Tuple<string, string>>> rules; public Grammar(string g) { rules = new Dictionary<string, List<Tuple<string, string>>>(); foreach (string s in g.Split(new[] { '\n', '\r' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)) { int i = s.IndexOf(':'); var name = s.Substring(0, i).Trim(); var list = new List<Tuple<string, string>>(); foreach (var o in s.Substring(i + 1).Split('|')) { var words = o.Split(new[] { ' ' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries); Debug.Assert(words.Length == 2); list.Add(Tuple.Create(words[0], words[1])); } rules.Add(name, list); } }
OK, super.
Now we need a way of saying "given a symbol and the exact number of substitutions to perform on it, give all the results that are strings of terminals". We can make a simple modification to our binary tree enumerator.
First we'll handle the trivial cases: if we are asked to make zero substitutions then there are three cases. If we have a nonterminal then there are no results because we need to make at least one more substitution. If we have a regular terminal, we'll return it. And if we have NIL, remember, it is a special nonterminal that is identical to the empty string.
If we have substitutions to do then either we have a terminal or we have a nonterminal. If we have a terminal then there are no results because you cannot substitute on a terminal. If we have substitutions to do on a nonterminal then clearly we're not in a base case and we need to recurse.
private static string[] empty = { };public IEnumerable<string> All(string symbol, int substitutions){ bool terminal = !rules.ContainsKey(symbol); if (substitutions == 0) { // No more substitutions; we'd better have a terminal. if (terminal) return new string[] { symbol == "NIL" ? "" : symbol + " " }; return empty; }
// We're doing substitutions; we'd better have a nonterminal. if (terminal) return empty;
return from r in rules[symbol] from i in Enumerable.Range(0, substitutions) from left in All(r.Item1, i) from right in All(r.Item2, substitutions - i - 1) select left + right;}
Let's test it out. Here's a two-symbol-per-production grammar for the language "all properly matched combinations of parens, brackets, braces and angles:
const string parengrammar = @"S: S S | ( PARENEND | [ BRACKETEND | { BRACEEND | < ANGLEENDPARENEND: S ) | NIL )BRACKETEND: S ] | NIL ]BRACEEND: S } | NIL }ANGLEEND: S > | NIL >";
static void Main(){ Grammar g = new Grammar(parengrammar); for (int i = 1; i < 5; ++i) { Console.WriteLine(i); foreach (var s in g.All("S", i)) Console.WriteLine(s); }}
And sure enough, the output is:
12( )[ ]{ }< >34( ( ) )( [ ] )( { } )( < > )[ ( ) ][ [ ] ][ { } ][ < > ]{ ( ) }{ [ ] }{ { } }{ < > }< ( ) >< [ ] >< { } >< < > >
Notice that these are not all the four-character strings; these are the strings that require four substitutions. ( ) ( ) isn't on the list because that requires five substitutions in its derivation.
Try that program but going up to eleven, twelve, thirteen or more substitutions. Notice anything odd? Sure, obviously there are more and more strings to generate for each one. But more to the point, things seem to be getting slower… and slower… and slower.
Next time: Insanity!
Great series. I was wondering if you could post the nested for loops for the LINQ you have there
return from r in rules[symbol]
from i in Enumerable.Range(0, substitutions)
from left in All(r.Item1, i)
from right in All(r.Item2, substitutions - i - 1)
select left + right;
I am having a hard time working that out.
Thank you

These days, self-publishing is much better respected than it used to be. It's now seen as a viable, positive option for authors looking to publish their work, and the list of reasons for writers to give it a go continues to grow.
For instance…
Use it to build momentum
One good thing about self-publishing is that, as the author, you get to choose what books you publish, and how often you publish them. This means that if you want to build momentum by releasing two or three books in short succession of each other, you can. This is in contrast to the often more constrictive traditional publishing.
And, of course, it also means that if you don't want to publish anything for a while, there's nothing forcing you to do that either.
Find out what success means for you
Self-publishing is also a good option if you want to try different things and explore new ideas. You can find out about different kinds of success – it's not all just about hitting number 1 on Amazon (although that is lovely), but also about pushing the boundaries of your writing without worrying about what your publisher's going to say.
Challenge the norms
A point often raised by authors who publish their work the traditional way – even by authors who are passionate supports of traditional publishing – is that writers are often forced to accept book covers and marketing decisions for their work that they aren't entirely happy with. The forcing of pink covers onto lots of "women's fiction", for instance, no matter how incongruous they are to what's actually inside.
This is not the case in self-publishing; you get to choose how you want to present your own book based on its content, and are in control over all of the marketing decisions. After all, even authors who go down the traditional route usually have to do the bulk of their own marketing. You might as well have a book that you're completely happy with.
Put together your perfect publishing team
One of the arguments people often make in favour of traditional publishing is that the whole thing is already set up for you – you don't have to worry about finding editors or cover designers or someone to worry about things like rights. This is great in theory, but the downside to a ready-made team is that it might not be all that well tailored to you.
By contrast, even though it might involve some work to find a group of people you're happy with, in self-publishing, you decide who's on the team. It might take a bit of time to find your winning formula, but being able to choose your own editor and designer is great.
What do you think?

While low levels of negative emotion or high levels of cardiorespiratory fitness are predictors of long-term survival in men and women, being both fit and not unhappy provides a strong combined effect, reducing premature death by 63 percent, according to this study.
Although it is known that psychological well-being and cardiorespiratory fitness are both associated with survival, little research has looked at their interaction. From 1988-1997, 4,888 U.S. participants–mostly Caucasian, well-educated, working as professionals or executives, and from middle to high socioeconomic strata–were evaluated for levels of cardiorespiratory fitness, negative emotion and positive emotion. Subjects were then followed for approximately 15 years. Analysis was adjusted for significant health factors such as age, BMI, physical activity, smoking and alcohol consumption.
Key Findings:
Although this study did not investigate causality, the authors suggest lower levels of negative emotion may reduce people's susceptibility to disease and increase their abilities to problem-solve, concentrate and socialize. These findings suggest, in order to reduce premature death, health care professionals should be assessing and providing interventions to increase the physical fitness and psychological well-being of patients.
This study is one in a series supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Pioneer Portfolio to explore Positive Health, an emerging concept that seeks to demonstrate that in addition to health risks, people also have health assets, which can be strengthened to produce a healthier life. These health assets could include biological factors, such as high heart rate variability; subjective factors, such as optimism; and functional factors, such as a stable marriage.

Latest Blu-Ray Reviews
« Previous

Drillbit Taylor (2008)
Wilson proves again that he's a quick-witted comedic treasure—he's the sort of actor who gets hired to make mediocre movies almost good by his sheer force of comic will.
Point Break (1991)
Consistently stylish, dumb, and entertaining.
In the Line of Fire (1993)
You have a rendezvous with Dirty Harry's 62-year-old ass! And if you don't know what that means, you'd better figure it out!
Gangs of New York (2002)
The impact is all in the broad strokes of Scorsese's design: the corresponding coming-of-age stories of three confused and violent adolescents: Amsterdam Vallon, New York City, and America.
Batman: Gotham Knight (2008)
After the wayward kids' stuff of [Kids' WB's]
The Batman
Batman: Gotham Knight
's adult tone and visual wonderment are like (Bat-)manna from heaven.
Vantage Point (2008)
Asks us to believe the terrorists would, after slaughtering countless people, risk their entire plan—and their very lives—on...well, I won't say. But from my vantage point, it was ridiculous.
Natural Born Killers (1994)
Profane, hallucinogenic, and wickedly satirical, Oliver Stone's
Natural Born Killers
mainlined a message from hell (a.k.a. modern America, as seen by Stone) into mall theatres and multiplexes.
Persepolis (2007)
is so satisfying because it works on a few complimentary levels: as a coming-of-age story tracking innocence to experience, as an accounting of revolutionary and feminist struggles, and as an artful visual experience in cartoon form.
The Spiderwick Chronicles (2008)
For a movie about magical beasts,
The Spiderwick Chronicles
does an awfully good job of pegging childhood emotional realities, particularly in a context of divorce.
Men In Black (1997)
Among the best of the summer movie blockbusters,
Men in Black
comes on like gangbusters and never lets up.
Fool's Gold (2008)
Harmless but seriously wit-deficient.
Batman (1966)
The delirious idiosyncracies of the '60s
are all on display...a pleasant-enough romp that's just a little too-distracted with its new toys.
Jumper (2008)
too often feels like a special-effects demo reel in search of a story, at least the eye candy is pretty darn sweet.
Stuck (2008)
Veteran director Stuart Gordon guts us with dark satire and twists the knife...[this] horror fable is enough to make weary gorehounds sit up at attention.
There Will Be Blood (2007)
Anderson's most mature and ambitious film yet...[though his] growth as a filmmaker remains hindered by an obsession with effect and a disinterest in depth.
Patton (1970)
A bio-epic on the order of
Lawrence of Arabia
is a smart, fully realized historical film.
The Sand Pebbles (1966)
A fine old-school picture...elevated further by its progressive themes.
The Longest Day (1962)
Though the film makes a few egregious historical changes for dramatic effect,
The Longest Day
pretty much lives and dies by its scale.
A Bridge Too Far (1977)
Attenborough consistently reinforces the horrors of war by depicting not only the disasterous military engagements and their toll on heroes, but also the witless political decisions that led to needless, excessive loss of life.
Battle of Britain (1969)
Succeeds in giving the general impression of a pivotal historical moment, and excels in crafting some of the most astonishing aerial-warfare sequences ever put on film.
Company (2008)
Harold Prince's original staging remains the gold standard, but John Doyle offers an intriguing alternative on Sondheim's ode to commitment anxiety.
Signs (2002)
An anti-
Independence Day
, a cousin of
Close Encounters
, but most of all, a well-modulated, dread-laden, faith-based mystery.
The Recruit (2003)
Watchable only for its star power and scarce caffeine kicks...awfully predictable.
Cloverfield (2008)
The mysteriously titled project might just as well have been called "9/11: The Thrill Ride," so thoroughly does it trade on our emotions of that disaster.
Commando (1985)
An audacious comic-book movie on steroids...cinematic junk food, but even a dieter deserves to cheat once in a while.
Bee Movie (2008)
Seinfeld's pleasingly idiosyncratic comic voice comes through in the haphazard, slaphappy storyline.
Face/Off (1997)
This is your action movie on drugs—any questions?
Anger Management (2003)
Full-blown 'Jack'—his face a spectacular special effect of full-blown energy—remains an irresistible act.
Twister (1996)
It may not be fashionable to like
, but darn if it isn't an entertaining electro-shock of action cinema.
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005)
Though Adamson lacks Lewis' storytelling confidence...
The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe
still comes across as a quirkily diverting children's entertainment.
First Knight (1995)
First Knight—a brave attempt at a fresh cinematic angle on Arthurian legend—has a few interesting ideas, but is ultimately brought down by a squishy script, a director (Jerry Zucker) lack...
A Passage to India (1984)
After a fourteen year absence from the silver screen, David Lean vigorously attacked the challenge of adapting E.M. Forster's novel A Passage to India. What would be Lean's final film has much to rec...
Sleuth (2007)
The script includes a verbal motif that reminds us of what binds the film's four central talents together: 'I want to show you something.'
Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007)
"The world is an evil place," or so says a compromised diamond dealer in the crime melodrama Before the Devil Knows You're Dead. "Some of us make money off of that, and others get destroyed." Dark bu...
Juno (2007)
One frequent criticism of certain screenwriters is to point out that their characters all sound the same. To some, this phenomenon is a terrible sin; to others, it's simply a matter of style. Though...
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1989)
Like its hero, extraordinary in every way.
Bonnie and Clyde (1967)
A bona fide landmark in American film,
Bonnie and Clyde
stands the test of time the same way its protagonists did: by breaking all the rules.
I Am Legend (2007)
Downright hokey...a billboard for a Batman-Superman team-up movie...will elicit more gasps from the fanboys than anything else.
Run Fatboy Run (2008)
This brand of unfailing comic timing and expressive physicality is rare, and it's why Pegg, in particular, is a star.
Never Back Down (2008)
A sort of teenage
Fight Club
, complete with daddy issues,
Never Back Down
is a slight refinement of the sort of picture that was ascendant in the '80s...

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Steve Francis grew up in Takoma Park, Maryland raised by his mother and grandmother. He attended San Jacinto College of Texas and the Allegany College of Maryland before transfering to the University of Maryland. That year the Terrapins went to the Sweet 16 but were defeated by St. John's. Francis decided to opt out of his senior season of college ball and enter the NBA Draft. He was the second pick overall by the Vancouver Grizzlies, but he did not want to play for them. He was then traded to the Houston Rockets. He was an All-Star from 2002-2004. During the 2003-04 season the Rockets made the playoffs but lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in 5 games. On June 29, 2004 Francis was traded to the Orlando Magic. The first year with the Magic Francis averaged 21.3 points per game and 7.0 assists per game. During the 2005-06 season on February 22, 2006 Francis was traded to the New York Knicks. With the Knicks he averaged 10.8 points per game and 3.5 assists per game. On June 28, 2007 he was traded to the Portland TrailBlazers who bought out the remaining two years of his contract which made him a free agent. On July 20, 2007 he signed with the Houston Rockets. In 10 games he averaged 5.5 points per game and 3.0 assists per game before undergoing surgery on his quadriceps. On December 23, 2008 he was traded from the Rockets to the Memphis Grizzlies. He was waived by the Grizzlies on January 27, 2009. He is now a free agent and did not play in the 2009-2010 regular season.

Nikon Coolpix 2500 Review
Review based on an production Coolpix 2500, firmware E2500v1.0
The Nikon Coolpix 2500 was announced on 21st February 2002 as a part of Nikon's new offerings at the PMA 2002 show. The 2500 marks a stylish design departure from the 775 and 885 but also brings familiar echoes of the split & twist bodied Coolpix 900, 950, 990 and 995. The 2500 is clearly targetted at a relatively young 'trendy' market, those who are looking for quick easy to use (and stylishly designed) digital cameras but cameras which can also deliver a certain level of image quality.
The 2500 features a 2 megapixel CCD sensor and a 3x optical zoom lens, because of its clever 'internal twist' design the lens and flash unit are protected when rotated to the vertical position. This makes the 2500 an ideal coat pocket or handbag camera, there's little need for a separate case and there is certainly no lens cap. Thanks to the double swivel (lens portion is connected to the main body on both the left and right side) there's also no flex or potential to damage the swivel mechanism.
Because of the 2500's internal zoom / internal focusing lens there's no extending lens mechanism to get damaged (unlike many other compact digital cameras). About the worst thing that could happen to this camera if it were knocked would be that the rotating portion is flipped back into its protective vertical position.

Benson Henderson addresses fans about finishing rate
In a league where half the people lose every fight, and every time you win the competition gets tougher, UFC lightweight champion Benson Henderson has never lost. He has also never won by knockout or tapout - every win was by decision, two of them split, including the most recent, vs. Gil Melendez.
That record recently generated some quiet grumbling, which Henderson recently addressed like the shampion that he is, via Facebook.
I know I'm not the best (yet, ;-D), I was never the fastest, or strongest, or most athletic, or most technical or anything like that. Go ahead and ask any of my high school or college wrestling coaches. I was never picked 1st in dodgeball or basketball or soccer or football games growing up but one thing I always had was the will power and determination to NEVER give up, to not be afraid to open up my heart and give all of myself, to not hold anything back for the swim back to shore.
I guess I'm supposed to apologize that I'm no AndersonSilva or BJPenn, who is? I'm just that kid who would never stop, the kid whose older brother friends used to beat in 10 games of basketball (in a row) but would be pushing for the 11th game, yeah that's me. And just like back then I'm not going ANYWHERE, you want my belt, you're gonna have to pry it from my cold fingers.
No, I'm not the best but guess what, I've got the UFC LW belt and I'm just getting started, I'm getting better every single day...think about that, let that sink in.
A HUGE thanks to my growing family, faithful friends and real fans.
*Chap. 3 is done, on to the next...

As much of a Ben fanboy as I am if Edgar and Mendes don't take Jose down, Ben definitely won't
4/25/13 3:05 AM by THE Louisville Cardinals
It would be a great fight but I personally think Bendo would take him down and grind out a decision. Aldo has shown weakness off his back, and Bendo's hell in top position. Would be a good one though.

Jose Aldo.
4/25/13 2:02 AM by THE Louisville Cardinals
Outside of Anthony Pettis, I can't think of one person that has a chance of beating Benson at 155. Not one, and that includes Penn, if he were to decide to come back dedicated (and that is coming from a HUGE BJ Penn fan). Bendo has nothing to apologize for.

I like how he said this but still I thought Gil won. Also I thought it was pretty fucked up that the fans boo'd Bendo's proposal

Remember Me
Thankfully the last two years or so have seen a resurgence in the popularity of such
music, but this week as a final look at what was happening a decade ago, we're going to
give a listen to the state of the groove in 2003. We open with a cool Soundcheck
Jam from Sam Kininger (featuring the fantastic Nikki Glaspie on drums), followed by a
big, stomping "Fat City Strut" from Topaz. Robert Walter gives a slick version of
one of his signature tunes, "Aqua Fresh," and the center piece is Soulive crushing
"Jesus Children" as part of their Stretch residency in New York, which found them
exploring different musical themes at each show. This one is from jazz night and features
the amazing Kenny Garret on alto - a must hear performance. To finish things out, we have
Marco and Joe doing "Darts," which shows just how different their groove was from
everyone else's, something much more tonally in sync with the times. As always, enjoy!

Stayed at Tiare for 2 weeks during my 6 months travelling & I would stay again. Adrienne was a fantastic manager, she was always on hand and even drove me into town on my first night. The accommodation isn't on the main beaches but it is only a 20 min walk to the town centre and you can flag a bus down to get around the island very easily and cheaply. All in all I had a great stay here and would recommend it to others.

I have just returned from a very good rest in Raro. the facilities of the Tiare Village was very good and I would strongly recommend this place especially for people who are looking for excellent value for money, clean and tidy, close to the main town and a manager who really cares about the well being of those who choose this accommodation. I would strongly recommend this for any traveller and families. It is only 15 minutes walk to the town and would recommend either hiring a scooter or car

2000 Honda Accord • 288,000 miles
I have a 2000 Honda Accord with 2.2 vtec engine (f23a1). A couple days ago, my clutch started getting stuck to the floor. I can still shift between gears if I hold it in Neutral and pop the clutch back up with my foot. It does it the worst in 1st to 2nd and in reverse. And sometimes at a stop light (if I dont put it in neutral), it seems as if the clutch is not fully disengaged. It feels as if there is a bubble in the line, but I have bled the system entirely 2 times now. Both with help from a friend and using gravity alone. The fluid is extra clean now. Lol. Anyway, would this be a problem with the slave cylinder or the master cylinder? And how would I know which to replace? There is no fluid leaking from either components. Please help me.
May 3, 2013.
May 3, 2013.
First check manually without the slave/master your release bearignmay be worn and sticking to the clutch arm. See if the slave works smoothly with out clutch if it does then it's a clutch problem

Regional bank makes $5,000 investment in Adams County Economic Education Programs:
The Adams County Economic Education Foundation recently received a $5,000 donation from Integrity Bank, headquartered in Camp Hill, to help support student programs that build career awareness, facilitate career exploration and develop workplace skills.
The non-profit foundation bridges the gap between the business and education communities to prepare students for higher education and the workforce. More than 30,000 students in Adams County have benefited since 1991.
Programs include an 18-week intensive Introduction to Manufacturing and Business course in cooperation with HACC Gettysburg Campus, which puts high school seniors in the center of local business operations. The foundation also hosts an annual career fair for sophomores, coordinates a career mentor program for at-risk youth, and sponsors an award for seniors who show improvement throughout their high school careers.

Anybody else watch the "friendly" last night?
My thoughts:
-It is amazing what the Mexican team could do with the ball at their feet.
-It is more amazing that despite what looked like an obvious mismatch in technical skill the US was able to win.
-Bornstein played exceptionally well defensively.
-Rolfe was pretty useless up top, and Chris Albright makes me feel better that Steve Cherundelo will be back for any meaningful games.
-I thought Dempsey was pretty empty but he did have some nice runs in the 2nd half.
-I'm not exactly sure where DeMarcus Beasley fits in if he comes back. I feels like the US has 10 midfielders.

If the release of Netgear's new NeoTV PRIME has left you feeling like your earlier model is a bit dated, then maybe some fresh software for that streaming box will ease those woes. Announced today at CES, several new channels are now available on the NeoTV range, with the biggest names being TuneIn Radio -- if you want to rest those eyes for a while -- and SlingPlayer. You'll need a Slingbox at home to take advantage of SlingPlayer, of course, but it means you can pipe live TV to another room in your house or, if you're in the habit of carting your NeoTV box around, wherever else you take it. WKNTV has also been added, giving you access to live and on-demand content from Korea, and ShopNBC for live feeds of a bunch of hypnotic shopping channels -- you know, for when you wanna watch overly charismatic presenters earn their keep.
Follow all the latest CES 2013 news at our event hub.
Addition of SlingPlayer to NeoTV means you can extend your living room TV viewing experience to any TV in your home
LAS VEGAS – January 7, 2013 – NETGEAR®, Inc. (NASDAQGM: NTGR),
(www.netgear.com), a global networking company that delivers innovative products to consumers, businesses and service providers, announced today at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES®) the addition of Sling Media's SlingPlayer® to the NETGEAR line of NeoTV Streaming® Players. SlingPlayer software ensures that you will never miss your favorite programming by extending the live TV experience to any TV enabled by a NeoTV Streaming Player, whether NeoTV (NTV300), NeoTV PRO (NTV300S), NeoTV MAX (NTV300SL) or the just-announced NeoTV PRIME with Google TV™ (GTV100).
With the combination of a NETGEAR NeoTV Streaming Player and a Slingbox®, you can now easily enjoy streaming of your favorite live TV shows, sporting events, recorded programming and even premium movies on any TV using your Internet connection. The living room TV experience can now be extended to a second or third TV and even remotely to a TV outside of your home using SlingPlayer on a NeoTV, without having to lease additional set-top boxes from your cable or satellite service provider.
In addition to SlingPlayer, NETGEAR has also added TuneIn Radio and ShopNBC to a growing list of hundreds of existing NeoTV streaming channels including Netflix, Hulu Plus, Vudu, Pandora, Rhapsody, YouTube, Intel Wireless Display (WiDi) and many more. TuneIn Radio offers streaming music, sports and news from every corner of the earth, with over 70,000 radio stations and 2 million on-demand programs, while the ShopNBC channel gives you access to live streaming feeds from one of the most popular home shopping networks. Another enhancement to the international content available via NeoTV is WKNTV, which offers Korean programs that include both live streaming and video-on-demand (VOD) content.
"The line between broadcast live TV and broadband streaming continues to narrow," said Damir Skripic, product line manager for connected entertainment at NETGEAR. "With the addition of SlingPlayer, Slingbox owners can now use their Internet connection to stream live or recorded TV programming to NeoTV Streaming Players connected to any TVs at home or even remotely."
NeoTV Streaming Player (NTV300) is a simple-to-use device that's an ideal solution for streaming thousands of movies, TV shows or songs to TVs in full 1080p HD and 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound. In addition to all core NeoTV features, NeoTV PRO (NTV300S) also offers Intel® WiDi, giving consumers the ability to wirelessly display their compatible laptop screens on their TVs at up to 1080p full-HD resolution. Building on the features of NeoTV PRO, NeoTV MAX (NTV300SL) extends the home theater experience a step further by offering a two-sided remote control with a full keyboard, and giving you the ability to play your personal media files from a range of external devices, including USB hard disk drives, USB thumb drives, and DLNA Certified® media servers. NeoTV MAX is an honoree in the 2013 CES® Innovations for Design and Engineering Awards program.
Pricing and Availability
The entire NETGEAR NeoTV Streaming Player line is available now in the United States from major retailers in stores and online. The suggested retail price of NeoTV Streaming Player (NTV300) is USD $49.99; NeoTV PRO Streaming Player (NTV300S) is USD $59.99; and NeoTV MAX Streaming Player (NTV300SL) has a suggested retail price of USD $69.99.

New Piper's Saratoga II TC
Still "The One" for the turbo six-seaters
Any list of general-aviation evergreens is bound to include certain airplanes: The Cessna 170 and 172 would be near the top of the list; Piper's venerable Super Cub would be a strong contender; Beechcraft's straight-tail Bonanza would definitely qualify; and the Piper Cherokee Six also would likely make the list." />
The ultimate, modern iteration of the retractable Cherokee Six is the 2005 Saratoga II TC. As you might expect, the newest model is a considerably improved airplane from the original, but its ties to that first 1976 Lance remain obvious.
The Saratoga II TC need make no apologies for its links with the past. The current airplane has employed the same fuselage, powerplant and wing for nearly a quarter-century, mainly because the combination works so well. Fortunately, New Piper's engineers don't subscribe to the philosophy "If it ain't broke, fix it till it is," so the basic aerodynamic and power configuration of the current airplane remains similar to the original.
Despite the age of the original design, there's nothing antiquated about the new Saratoga II TC. The panel is as modern as tomorrow. With only your credit line as your guide, it's possible to fit the Saratoga with Avidyne's multi-talented, flat-panel displays, air conditioning and enough other electronic goodies to make an Airbus 330 pilot envious.
New Piper's turbocharged Saratoga endears itself to virtually everyone who flies it on a more basic level, however, not because of dramatic climb or blazing speed, but by reason of its truly benign handling, supreme cabin comfort and easy loading flexibility through the twin, aft-left cargo doors. At the airplane's full 3,600-pound gross, handling characteristics are predictably heavy and bear-like, but they're more reminiscent of a teddy bear than a grizzly.

|Mozilla Science Lab
|Owner: Kaitlin Thaney
|Updated: 2015-10-7
|The Mozilla Science Lab is an initiative of the Mozilla Foundation exploring how the power of open source can change the way science is done on the web. We believe a community of peers that work, learn and build together can make research thrive on the open web. We do this through code sprints, participatory learning and prototyping with the research community to make science more like the web: open, collaborative and efficient. For more, visit mozillascience.org.
The vision
The web has revolutionized many aspects of our everyday life, from media to education and business. But even though the web was invented by scientists, we still have not yet seen it change scientific practice to nearly the same extent. In scientific research, we're dealing with special circumstances, trying to innovate upon hundreds of years of entrenched norms and practices, broken incentive structures and gaps in training that are dramatically slowing down the system, keeping us from making the steps forward needed to better society.
The aim of the Science Lab is to foster an ongoing dialogue between the open web community and researchers to tackle this challenge. Together they'll share ideas, tools and best practices for using next-generation web solutions to solve real problems in science, and explore ways to make research faster, more agile and collaborative.
Focus areas
Code and data literacy
Digital literacy is as important as reading, writing and arithmetic. In academia, skills training to match the tools and technology is still leagues behind where it should be. We need to find a way to better empower students to be "digital researchers" by shortening the gap and providing the means for them to learn how to share, reuse and reproduce research on the web.
Support and innovate with the community
There are some incredible tools out there pushing the limits to what the future of science on the web can be. We want to help support that work as well as find ways to help coordinate efforts and innovate together.
Convening a global conversation
Science is a global enterprise, and this needs to be a global conversation. We want to make sure we are getting tools into the hands of the people who need them most, and continually soliciting your thoughts about how we can, together, work towards more open, efficient science on the web.

U.S., Vietnam in Nuclear Talks Amid Power Competition
The U.S. and Vietnam are holding negotiations on sharing nuclear fuel and civilian nuclear technology, an agreement that will enable American companies to invest in the Southeast Asian country's atomic industry.
The talks build on a March agreement between the countries to expand cooperation on peaceful nuclear energy that may aid U.S. companies such as General Electric Co. Vietnam said in June it plans to build as many as 13 nuclear power plants with a capacity of 16,000 megawatts over the next two decades.
The discussions come after President Barack Obama won commitments in April from 46 nations to lock down nuclear material and keep it away from terrorists. As part of those efforts, the U.S. is pushing for fewer countries to enrich uranium, a point with which Vietnam currently agrees.
"Vietnam doesn't intend to enrich as of now because of expensive and very sensitive technology," Vuong Huu Tan, president of the government-affiliated Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute, said by phone today. "Vietnam doesn't want to make its international relations complicated."
Authorities in Hanoi are reviewing draft documents of the deal before seeking Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung's approval, Tan said. Negotiations between the two countries haven't started yet, according to a faxed statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hanoi today.
The U.S. is seeking to promote "the appropriate use of civilian nuclear energy under strict international supervision," State Department spokesman Philip J. Crowley said in Washington yesterday. U.S. law requires a so-called 123 Agreement for Peaceful Cooperation for exports of nuclear material, equipment or components. Such agreements are already in place with most of Europe and about 20 other countries, including China and India.
Seeking Contracts
Russian, Japanese, Chinese, French and U.S. companies are vying for contracts to build nuclear plants in Vietnam. The country may face a shortage of almost 1 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity this year with consumption possibly increasing as much as 18 percent, the government said April 6.
Japan's Trade Minister Masayuki Naoshima will visit Hanoi this month with executives from companies such as Toshiba Corp. and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. to win business, Nikkei reported yesterday. Earlier this year, China's Guangdong Nuclear Power Group Co., the nation's No. 2 reactor builder, signed a nuclear cooperation agreement with Vietnam.
China acknowledges that all countries have the right to develop nuclear technology for peaceful purposes so long as they meet their obligations not to engage in proliferation, Jiang Yu, a spokeswoman for the Foreign Ministry, said in a faxed response to questions about the talks.
'Double Standards'
Negotiations with Vietnam show "double standards" by the U.S. as it promotes denuclearization, the China Daily newspaper cited Teng Jianqun, deputy-director of the China Arms Control and Disarmament Association, as saying yesterday. Vietnam is one of 189 countries that are party to the NPT.
Russia's Rosatom Corp. was selected to build Vietnam's first nuclear power plant, Ngo Dang Nhan, director general of the Vietnam Agency for Radiation and Nuclear Safety, said June 17. The value of the deal with Moscow-based Rosatom, Russia's state atomic energy corporation, wasn't disclosed.
The Obama administration has pushed exports of civilian nuclear equipment as part of efforts to double U.S. exports during the next five years to about $3.1 trillion, supporting 2 million additional jobs. Commerce Department officials last month held a trade mission to Slovakia, Poland and the Czech Republic to boost sales of nuclear energy products.
More 123 agreements would help U.S. companies such as GE and Westinghouse Electric Company LLC compete for contracts across Asia. The U.S. is in talks with other countries on the agreements, Crowley said, without naming them.
UAE Accord
The "gold standard" of nuclear technology deals is an agreement the U.S. negotiated with the United Arab Emirates last year, Crowley said. As part of that arrangement, the Persian Gulf state decided "that it would forgo the right of enrichment that every country in the world has," he said.
The U.S. negotiates such agreements on a country-by-country and region-by-region basis, Crowley said. He indicated that the U.S. would like to see Vietnam take the same approach as the UAE, and forgo the possibility of enriching uranium, which can be used to make nuclear weapons.
"We certainly want to see other countries make that same kind of decision and that same kind of agreement," he said.
The U.S. and Vietnam established diplomatic relations 15 years ago after ending a war in 1975 that killed 58,000 U.S. soldiers and more than 3 million Vietnamese. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the U.S. is ready to take relations with Vietnam to a "new level" during a visit to Hanoi last month.
