So, the main character is forcing Ana to sign a contract — rules of conduct that he expects from her. Violations of these rules, naturally, lead to her punishment.
The funny thing about this is as I'm reading it, I notice that not only is this giving me the heebie-jeebies, but I think a lot of this is a bid by the author to show that Christian is actually trying to ensure Ana's welfare.
She fails. Miserably. All I can see is a control freak with strict ideas of beauty that must be adhered to and, for his own convenience, is protecting what comes down to is an investment.
The Submissive will obey any instructions given by the Dominant immediately without hesitation or reservation and in an expeditious manner. The Submissive will agree to any sexual activity deemed fit and pleasurable by the Dominant excepting those activities which are outlined in hard limits (Appendix 2). She will do so eagerly and without hesitation.
The Submissive will ensure she achieves a minimum of seven hours sleep a night when she is not with the Dominant.
The Submissive will eat regularly to maintain her health and wellbeing from a prescribed list of foods (Appendix 4). The Submissive will not snack between meals, with the exception of fruit.
During the Term, the Submissive will wear clothing only approved by the Dominant. The Dominant will provide a clothing budget for the Submissive, which the Submissive shall utilize. The Dominant shall accompany the Submissive to purchase clothing on an ad hoc basis. If the Dominant so requires, the Submissive shall during the Term any adornments the Dominant shall require, in the presence of the Dominant and any other time the Dominant deems fit.
The Dominant shall provide the Submissive with a personal trainer four times a week in hour-long sessions at times to be mutually agreed between the personal trainer and the Submissive. The personal trainer will report to the Dominant on the Submissive's progress.
Personal Hygiene/Beauty:
The Submissive will keep herself clean and shaved and/or waxed at all times. The Submissive will visit a beauty salon of the Dominant's choosing at times to be decided by the Dominant, and undergo whatever treatments the Dominant sees fit.
Personal Safety:
The Submissive will not drink to excess, smoke, take recreational drugs, or put herself in any unnecessary danger.
Personal Qualities:
The Submissive will not enter into any sexual relations with anyone other than the Dominant. The Submissive will conduct herself in a respectful and modest manner at all times. She must recognize that her behavior is a direct reflection on the Dominant. She shall be held accountable for any misdeeds, wrongdoings, and misbehavior committed when not in the presence of the Dominant.
Failure to comply with any of the above will result in immediate punishment, the nature of which shall be determined by the Dominant.

Seriously. I do. I don't have enough words to even express how much I revile this piece of trash. But here. This is a quote that's too long to paste to you in MSN.
"Say something," Christian commands, his voice deceptively soft.
"Do you do this to people or do they do it to you?"
His mouth quirks up, either amused or relieved.
"People?" He blinks a couple of times as he considers his answer. "I do this to women who want me to."
I don't understand.
"If you have willing volunteers, why am I here?"
"Because I want to do this with you, very much."
"Oh," I gasp. Why?
I wander to the far corner of the room and pat the waist high padded bench and run my fingers over the leather. He likes to hurt women. The thought depresses me.
"You're a sadist?"
"I'm a Dominant." His eyes are a scorching gray, intense.
"What does that mean?" I whisper.
"It means I want you to willingly surrender yourself to me, in all things."
I frown at him as I try to assimilate this idea.
"Why would I do that?"
"To please me," he whispers as he cocks his head to one side, and I see a ghost of a smile.
Please him! He wants me to please him! I think my mouth drops open. Please Christian Grey. And I realize, in that moment, that yes, that's exactly what I want to do. I want him to be damned delighted with me. It's a revelation.
"In very simple terms, I want you to want to please me," he says softly. His voice is hypnotic.
"How do I do that?" My mouth is dry, and I wish I had more wine. Okay, I understand the pleasing bit, but I am puzzled by the soft-boudoir-Elizabethan-torture set up. Do I want to know the answer?
"I have rules, and I want you to comply with them. They are for your benefit and for my pleasure. If you follow these rules to my satisfaction, I shall reward you. If you don't, I shall punish you, and you will learn," he whispers. I glance at the rack of canes as he says this.
"And where does all this fit in?" I wave my hand in the general direction of the room.
"It's all part of the incentive package. Both reward and punishment."
"So you'll get your kicks by exerting your will over me."
"It's about gaining your trust and your respect, so you'll let me exert my will over you. I will gain a great deal of pleasure, joy, even in your submission. The more you submit, the greater my joy – it's a very simple equation."
"Okay, and what do I get out of this?"
He shrugs and looks almost apologetic.
"Me," he says simply.
Oh my. Christian rakes his hand through his hair as he gazes at me.

2007 BMW 550i Problems
A creak or squeak can be heard from the top of the front or rear doors. This noise is most noticeable when the windows are fully up. The noise is caused by the decay of the flocking material on the door seals. New door seals, Teflon tape, special lube, or a combination of all of these may be needed to eliminate the noise.
2007 BMW 550i Questions
When I push the call button I can't hear the voice commands,or the navigation voice.
Valve seals reported as bad and needing replacement by local dealership. Told $6000 to repair. Alternative costs and repair Locations?
2007 BMW 550i Recalls
The front passenger seat contains a mat that determines the presence and size of a seat occupant. This input to the airbag controller helps to determine if and how forcefully the passenger airbag should deploy in the event of a crash. The detection mat can develop cracks and fail. If this were to occur, the airbag would not deploy as expected, increasing the risk of personal injury. Dealers will repair the occupant detection mat to eliminate the possibility it may crack. Additionally certain vehicles will receive and extended warranty on the front passenger seat occupant detection mat.
The insulated connector for the positive battery cable may have been incorrectly attached to the trunk floor panel, which can lead to a loosening of the bolt connection. Loosening of the connection can cause an increase in electrical resistance and overheating of the cable connection, which could lead to a fire, even when the vehicle is not in use. As a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been completed. Dealers will secure the battery bolt cable connection as necessary to correct this concern.
The brake system vacuum pump check valve can leak oil and contaminate the power brake booster. This can result in loss of power brake assist. Dealers will repair the vehicle as necessary free of charge to resolve concerns.

Total new driving experience even after 20+ years... Fun fun fun
The BEST car ever!!
Its a good car. Not fantastic. Handling for such a large, heavy vehicle is pretty good. Power is excellent - although with the manual transmission, it feels a little sluggish immediately off the line. My only real complaint with the car is that with the sport suspension, BMW has so much negative camber in the rear of the car that the inner 1/2" of tire will wear to the cords while the outer...

Fender Updates Two Amps for '15
Fender cranked out many new guitar models for 2015, but when it comes to guitar amps, they weren't so prolific. Rather than introduce new ones, they've chosen to update two solid performers from the stable. So if you're jonesing for more tones, check these out:
First is the Hot Rod DeVille ML 212:
The "ML" stands for Michael Landau, a solo artist, world-class sideman, session master and "players' player." Landau has used a two-amp Hot Rod DeVille-and-stomp-box setup on stage for years; the ML model is based on the Fender Hot Rod DeVille III, with tube circuitry and 60-watt output, two 12" speakers, spring reverb and an effects loop. The ML incorporates volume-switching and boost capabilities, with three channels (normal, drive, more drive). It features 3 x 12AX7 tubes, 2 x 6L6 power tubes, and a solid state rectifier.
Check out this video to see what the ML is capable of:
The Hot Rod DeVille ML 212 will be available in mid-March with an MSRP is $1,099.99.
The second update is the Blues Jr. LTD, with a lacquered tweed covering and a vintage-voiced 12″ Jensen speaker. Its tones are generated by an all-tube signal path using a pair of EL84 output tubes and 3 – 12AX7 preamp tubes, pumping out 15 watts. The LTD also features reverb, flexible controls, and a FAT switch for mid boost.
MSRP: $579.99 Available Late March
So there you have it: a couple of new amps to ponder. For more information on these amps, head to Fender.
Custom Shop Tele Lineup for '15
By the looks of their new lineup, it's a safe bet the Fender Custom Shop team put in some serious overtime getting ready for 2015 NAMM. There are many models to consider; study them wisely because it's hard to justify more than one $5000 guitar a year, right?
First out of the gate is the 2015 American Custom Telecaster. It takes a double-bound early-'60s classic and "decks it out" with hand-wired Twisted Tele single-coil pickups, along the Greasebucket tone circuit, which rolls off highs without reducing gain.
Plus an AAA flame maple neck with a "large C" profile, maple or dark rosewood "slab" fingerboard, bone nut, 22 narrow jumbo frets, three way pickup switch, and Elite chrome tuners. Available NOS finishes include Two-Color Sunburst:
Three-Color Sunburst
Faded Lake Placid Blue
The 2015 American Custom Telecaster FM has the same configuration, rosewood or maple fingerboard, but comes in NOS Violin burst:
And NOS Honey Burst
The 2015 Postmodern Journeyman Telecaster is a contemporary take on the classic Tele. It features a lightweight ash body with a contoured heel, a quartersawn maple neck with a '60s "C" profile, a fast compound-radius (9.5"-12") "round-laminated" maple or rosewood fingerboard, dual Twisted Tele pickups, the Greasebucket, a Custom Shop RSD bridge, American Vintage tuning machines, Schaller strap locks and Fender "F" logo engraved neck plate.
It's available in either NOS or relic finishes in black:
Dakota Red:
Aged White Blonde:
The 1960 Relic Telecaster Custom has an alder body, three-color chocolate sunburst relic finish with dark plum sides, along with top and back binding. Pickups are Twisted Teles; the quartersawn maple neck has an early-'60s "oval C" profile. Plus a three-way pickup switch, three-ply mint green pickguard, American Vintage Telecaster bridge with threaded saddles, and American Vintage tuning machines.
The 1952 Heavy Relic Telecaster is an "authentic evocation of Fender's first workhorse guitar," along with some upgraded features, like Nocaster pickups with three-way switching, the Greasebucket, a maple neck with a Nocaster "U" profile, single-ply parchment pick guard, '52 Telecaster bridge with brass saddles, and American Vintage tuning machines.
Available in Black, Blonde, and two-color sunburst:
The 1963 Relic Telecaster features dual American Vintage Telecaster pickups with three-way switching, the Greasebucket, a quartersawn maple neck with a mid-'60s "oval C" profile, 9.5"-radius "round-laminated" rosewood fingerboard with 21 narrow jumbo frets, three-ply mint green pickguard, American Vintage Telecaster bridge with threaded saddles, and American Vintage tuning machines.
Available in Olympic White, Blue Ice Metallic, and three-color sunburst:
The Limited Edition Caballo Tono ("tone horse") gets its horsepower from a TV Jones Classic in the neck, and a hand-wound Texas Tele pickup in the bridge, along with the Greasebucket circuit.
Other features: quarter sawn AAA flame maple neck with a highly-worn heavy Relic treatment, 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 narrow jumbo frets, distinctive Cabronita pickguard and reverse control plate (pickup switch placed behind control knobs), Custom Shop RSD bridge, Sperzel tuning machines with pearl buttons, and Schaller strap locks.
Check it out here:
Last but not least is the Limited Edition 1955 Relic Esquire with Tele conversion kit. It features a hand-wound '55 Telecaster single-coil bridge pickup with staggered/beveled pole pieces; if one pickup ain't enough, the included conversion kit contains a '55 Telecaster single-coil neck pickup, pickguard and control assembly .
Other features: a quartersawn maple neck with "soft V" profile and highly-worn Heavy Relic treatment on the back, a '55 Telecaster bridge with ¼" steel saddles, American Vintage tuning machines and a Custom Shop Limited Edition neck plate. It's available in two-color sunburst or Dirty White Blonde:
Phew. What a list of guitars. Take you're pick: they're all going to be awesome. For more, head to the Fender Custom Shop.
Fender's New American Standards
There will always be a certain allure to pre-CBS Fenders, but post-CBS models have their own cachet, as well. When Fender employees took over the company in late 1984, they started working on a new series of guitars. Released in 1986, these "American Standards" became an instant success. Every few years the series has seen changes and updates keeping them relevant for current players. Now, Fender has done it again and expanded the series with two upgraded Teles.
The American Standard Telecaster has a new body contour made for comfort. The neck gets a Custom Shop Twisted Tele pickup; a Broadcaster pickup is in the bridge. It's also available in two new colors – Bordeaux Metallic:
and Ocean Blue Metallic:
The American Standard Telecaster HH boasts two Twin Head Vintage humbucking pickups with three-way switching. The neck has a modern "C" profile, 9.5" fingerboard radius and 22 medium jumbo fret. The string-through-body bridge has a stamped brass plate.
Available in 3-Color Sunburst with a rosewood fingerboard:
Black with a rosewood fingerboard:
Olympic White with a maple fingerboard:
Ocean Blue Metallic with a maple fingerboard:
MSRP for these Teles: $1299
Check them out at Fender.
The Edge and Bono join Fender Board
Fender Music Corp announced that U2's the Edge and Bono have joined the company's board of directors. "By adding The Edge and Bono to the board of Fender, we are taking an important step toward building a company that is able to meet its potential as a business and a brand," said Bill McGlashan, Fender co-chairman.
Bono added, "Wherever you go in the world Fender is a standard bearer, not just for excellence in technology and craft, but for the influence of American culture. This made-in-USA company has at its heart innovation…the iconoclasm of Jimi Hendrix, the subtle sweet murmurings of Bill Frisell, as well as the most roadworthy loudspeaker on earth. When a festival-goer wears a Fender t-shirt, they are saying a lot about themselves. They love music; they're independent-spirited, they're proud of this truly American company, a nexus of technology and culture which, in the end, can't be copied no matter how hard the giants try. I'm excited to be part of developing newer technologies with Fender, as well as helping protect the jobs and commitment to excellence of their age-old craft."
It's not the first time U2 has interacted with Fender. In 2002, U2 bassist Adam Clayton collaborated with the company to build a Custom Shop Limited Edition Signature Precision Bass guitar.
In an interview with the New York Times, the Edge said he will still use equipment made by other companies, "but I'm most interested in working with the Fender design team on some new ideas."
Edge has been seen playing a bevy of Teles in concert, including a '66 blonde, a '66 Pelham Blue, a '69 blonde, a '69 blue, a '74 black, a '75 blonde, a '75 Custom walnut, a '94 50th Anniversary Custom in Alpine White, an American Vintage '52 reissue in Tobacco Burst, and this beauty from the Custom Shop.
Here he is talking Telecaster:

Let tribe pay cost of pig eradication
In response to "Forest Service seeks to wipe out feral pigs" (Local, June 22): When will common sense enter into this matter? We the taxpayers are going to foot the bill of several millions of dollars for the killing of these feral pigs.
This occurred because of a Barona band tribe member released pigs into the backcountry. If this is of such importance, have the tribe pick up the tab for the killing of these pigs. Better yet, have the environmentalists share the cost with the Indians to rid the pig population in that area.

Schools' labor deal
I keep reading this word over and over again, and on television coverage, of the "deal" with the district ("Teachers' jobs saved in union, district deal" June 20). Our teachers have pooled their money (teachers union) and have used this very large sum to buy the public representatives that in turn have allowed them to raid the state treasury. I think the plan is so effective that it has bankrupted the state. Then when there is absolutely no money left, they can't get the raise that was unaffordable to begin with.
I just hope they are teaching our children a better sense of vocabulary meanings than they use to explain their actions to the taxpayer.
David Meyer
Back in the day, teaching was the greatest of all professions and every day was a gift to teachers and students. With today's economy and the odd management of the [San Diego Unified] school district, it is anything but great. For so many it is like being on death row and then being reprieved over and over again until the next round occurs. If it is not you, it is the wonderful people who work around you.
Those of us who have fled sympathize for those who are being put through this economic form of harassment year after year. Teachers work harder and harder and give more and more and the return is minimal since you can't really get the pleasure out of this profession by funding it from your own pocket and having to deal with hordes of students in a day.

End-of-life issues
In response to "Government-mandated care is not good for America's health" (Opinion, June 21): My family lived in Europe, Canada, and Australia for 20 years and I can personally attest to the fact that they have very good health care. Everyone is covered, no problem with "pre-existing" conditions, no one has insurance dropped because they get sick, and no one has to declare bankruptcy because of medical expenses.
The cost of health care averages 10.8 percent of GDP versus 17 percent in the U.S. Administrative expense is 4 percent versus 26 percent in the U.S. "For-profit" health insurance companies and right-wing columnists distort the truth to the detriment of the American public.
William Voyzey
Carmel Valley
Roger Hedgecock seems to think the enemy is government-mandated health care. I am an older person; I got great care from the government system during my almost $1 million stem-cell transplant.
I fear for my children being driven from health care by the high premiums of corporations who then ration health care to preserve corporate profits. I would rather have a salaried government bureaucrat make the decision whether I live or die than a corporate bureaucrat whose bonus depends on keeping costs down by denying care or refusing payment after care has been received.
Everyone should have health insurance. Maybe the emergency room we pay for would not be so busy. But maybe Roger's alternative is to let those without coverage die at the door on the way out. Funerals aren't cheap, either.

A cave-in to janitors
In response to "Fletcher quietly worked to avert janitors strike" (Local reports, June 19): Assemblyman Fletcher didn't "work" at all to avert a janitors strike. Rather, he gave in to the already overpaid janitors to give them a 3.5 percent raise, and health care benefits, while other city workers haven't gotten a raise since 2009. Hence the city becomes even more encumbered by the unions.
San Diego is better off with Fletcher out of the mayoral race.
Fred Cimins
Get accustomed to inclusion in U.S.
In reference to Nadja O'Hagan (Letters, June 19). Regardless of the methodology used by President Obama to make a place for the estimated 800,000 illegals in his executive order that apparently displeases her, I would like to remind her that, although it might take a period of time to enact such a law, it, and others like it, will become law regardless of whoever wins the presidency this fall. There are far too many Republicans who agree with the result to keep reality from happening.
To what country will she move to when the above becomes the law? And it will in many other forms: gay marriage, mixed-color marriages, mixed ethnic marriages, mixed background marriages, mixed-religion marriages, etc. It has already begun. It will continue.
Joel Hepner
Go the extra mile
In response to "The perfect beach" (Night & Day, June 21): Great article, with useful information on public parking. Even more useful to some might have been a note on public transportation where available, particularly since it was noted several times that finding parking could be difficult.
Barbara Burgess
La Mesa
Spreading the scorn
In response to "Panel: Holder in contempt" (June 21): Looking at the polls, seems that citizens have contempt for Congress.

I bought a Masi CX a little while back and have not touched my Orbea carbon (read $$$) road bike since. I love the CX. Maybe it just fits better or its the fact that it is more versatile, I'm not sure. I primarily ride road but occasionally hit a little gravel or dirt just because I can.
The Masi is 8 lbs heavier, slower (with ritchey 35mm tires), and cheaper than the Orbea but yet I always grab the "tank"
I hate having things around that I don't use. Should I unload the Orbea? Have others sold thier road bike after getting a CX and regretted it?
Thanks for your thoughts.

in response to Phil95h
To spilt a Library do the following:
- Backup the existing library and make sure the backup is nin working condition.
- Move a part of your library items (projects, books, folders, ...) to a new folder in Aperture and then export this folder as a new library.
- After you checked that the exported part of your library works delete the exported folder from the original library.
But why do you want to split your library? This should not be necessary in Aperture. It is designed to work with very large libraries distributed about several volumes.
If you are running out of disk space the usual routine is to turn your library into a referenced library: keep the library itself on the system volume (for better performance) and relocate the master image files (or originals in AP 3.3.) to an external volume.
If you are thinking about splitting the library because of performance problems check the size of your projects. This should be kept small, also your hard drive should have at least 20 % free space (or even more).
Phil95h Jun 14, 2012 8:24 AM
in response to léonie
Thanks for your advice.
In fact, time access seems to be very long with this library which is made of :
- 497 projects in 45 files
- 37631 photos
- 280 Go
see below.
I precise that my machine is an imac 27", 3.4GHz Intel Core i7 with 16 Go Ram
Ernie Stamper Jun 14, 2012 8:47 AM
in response to Phil95h Helpful
My manage Library (primary one -- have others) is over 1 TB in size, has 64,000 masters, mostly RAW, and 540 plus projects. Access not an issue. Operation can become sluggish as OSX walls off RAM as inactive, apparently under the belief that it is more important to me to be able to quickly return to a prior image than to continue operating. But have tested that wih pint size libraries, and no difference.
What version of Aperture, btw?
Message was edited by: Ernie Stamper
Kirby Krieger Jun 14, 2012 12:49 PM
in response to Phil95h
Size is not a concern. I built a test Library of 500,000 Images in 20,000 Projects. Works fine on any machine which can run Aperture and has 6 GB of RAM. In the notes to 3.3, Apple says Aperture will handle 1,000,000 Images in a Library.
As Léonie mentions, the bigger your Library the more useful it is. Unless security concerns force you to quarantine Images, you should make your Library as inclusive as you might ever need.
wombat2007 Jun 25, 2012 8:08 PM
in response to Kirby Krieger
This thread ineterests me. I'm a photographer and reaching a library that is pushing 1T. I don't see a performance isue as much as the backups I run are painful - even the vaults. I back on two other network drives as well, so I could be out of commision for a day.
What are the pros doing out there ? Are you using referenced or masters ? Do you keep one big library or smaller contextual libs and why ? Are there any really good tutorials on heavy workflow ?
Presently I have 1 library, but the thought of seperating and referencing is tempting ? Any opinions ?

Worth exploring in your own thread, imho. .

I actually find this very helpful because my Aperture (version 3.4.2) is extremely slow and crashes very often. A frind of mine told me Aperture tends to run slow when library is huge compared to iPhoto. After reading the comments above I'm not sure it's because of the size of the library or projects...though I did find it slower and slower when I added more and more photos.

How large is too large for a project? Coz I'm having performance issues and I suspected the size of the library.

This can also be an indication that your Aperture Library needs repairing, or you may have imported corrupted media - image files or incompatible videos.
I'd try the Aperture lIbrary First Aid Tools to repair the database and permissions, if necessary to rebuild the Library, see:
Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
After a crash it is always a good precaution to repair the library, since a crash may interrupt a database transaction and leave the Aperture library in an inconsistent state.
If repairing/rebuilding does not fix the slowness, check your recent imports, if they contain incompatible videos or images that cannot be adjusted and cause Aperture to crash.

I too want to split a big iPhoto library.
So far I'm seeing is more enery in explaining why not to do it rather than how. No one seems to see the purpose of doing it.
My motivation is simple.... easy and cheap archive / backup.
If I can break that big library that spans many years down into smaller chunks and just throw them on in expensive flash drives I can drop them in my safety deposit box at the bank. With this approach, as time goes on I'm only having to fuss with archiving the most recent data instead of continually backing up a larger and larger file.
Sure time machine sounds good. And external driives aren't that expensive. But, either of those solutions leave the backup in my house. So no protection from fire or theft.
Terence Devlin Feb 13, 2013 1:59 AM
in response to Jeff.Bradham
Hard Drives are cheaper than flash drives, and the portable ones are the size of a cigarette packet. That would save you having to split the library. Also, with the ability to export as a Library you won't need to split the library at all. And the instructions for splitting a library are in the second post on the thread.

I was looking for a way to split my library too, for two reasons : my hard disk is full, and Aperture is extremely slow.
For the speed, what I read here remembers me that Aperture became really slower when i updated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Suddenly, everything was going slow… So OK, split my library won't fix this issue. Need to return to Snow Leopard or change my MacBook… great…
But now, more interesting, you all said it's not a problem to have a huge library if you keep the originals outside Aperture library. Ok, unfortunately it's too late for me because they are all inside the library. Is Aperture provides a way to move the original out of the library automatically, clean and organized?

As I said previously, slowness can be caused by a corrupted library; try the Aperture Library First Aid tools and repair or rebuild your library: Aperture 3 User Manual: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
Launch Aperture's Activity viewer (Window > Show Activity) and check, what Aperture is doing. Check, if Aperture is giving alert messages in the Console window; perhaps you have incompatible software installed.
Or your harddrive could simply be too full; check, if you have enough free disk space left.

However, it also gives some insight on immediate implications for employers about the EEOC's efforts to generate the underlying charges of discrimination.
The draft strategic plan, which is open for comment until Feb. 1, "establishes a framework for achieving the EEOC's mission 'to stop and remedy unlawful employment discrimination,' so that the nation might soon realize the Commission's vision of 'justice and equality in the workplace.'"

Google+ tip of the day: Post to Public collections.
I'm still seeing Google+ users who are posting privately, then wondering why they don't get any engagement.
When you set up a Collection, you get your one and only chance to make that Collection public or not. Make it public (if you want engagement on your posts).
If you've already got non-public Collections, delete them and create Public versions of them.
Little-known fact: The subscriber base of your Collections can be much higher than your follower count. My own wife +Amira Elgan has a follower count of 9,330. But her "Amira's Food" collection has 32,018 followers.
Post to public if you want engagement.

The new Google+ layout is actually pretty nice. One thing I really like is the static menu on the left hand side.
Also, there is another option on the menu on the left(not pictured in my screenshot) called Circle Stream where you can view the stream of individual circles. To get that option there, you need to turn it on under Settings.
H/T to +Derek Ross and +Ryan Lestage for mentioning it.

Dive into the new Google+
As +Eddie Kessler shared this afternoon (goo.gl/2QjBGx), we've spent lots of time talking to people who are passionate about Google+. We visited them in their homes, we invited them into early testing communities and we learned more about how and why they use Google+. The predominant answer? Having a great place to keep up with and talk about their interests. From Astrophotography (goo.gl/HRQmIh) to Wild Hummingbirds (goo.gl/6FscI6), people are not only discovering amazing things, but meeting others who share their passions as well.
Today we're taking a big step toward making Google+ an even better place for your interests. To do so, we've drastically simplified nearly every aspect of the product.

To be clear, states still retain the power to deny their own resources to the federal government, so they could potentially make settlement of refugees more difficult than it would be if the states cooperated. Nevertheless, an act of Congress — the Refugee Act of 1980 — has given Obama broad discretion to allow refugees to be admitted into the United States. The states of Texas, Louisiana and others must yield to that act.

Can you decipher this code? The British Library needs help. An intriguing feature of this sword is an as yet indecipherable inscription, found along one of its edges and inlaid in gold wire. It has been speculated that this is a religious invocation, since the language is unknown. Here's what the inscription seems to read:

I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't read it myself: The SUN (UK) reports that European Ryder Cup team captain Nick Faldo is bringing in Iron Maiden drummer (and golf nut) Nicko McBrain to "help motivate the team."
The SUN'S Gordon Smart apparently caught Faldo mentioning it during his work commentating on the British Open for the BBC.
I'm struggling to picture Colin Montgomerie in his leathers moshing to Bring Your Daughter . . . To The Slaughter. It would make a terrible mess of his cashmere sweaters. And upholders of the stuffy etiquette of the golfing circuit won't be too pleased if he plays any of his back catalogue too loudly around tee-off time.
Like, say, this?
I think that's pretty good motivation, myself. Not to be outdone, there are rumors and mutterings (read: the ones in my head) that U.S. team captain Paul Azinger will bring on golf nut Alice Cooper to counter for American motivation to take the Ryder Cup back.

Joel Spolsky is an interesting guy with strong opinions about software development and the education of people going into software development. Recently he posted a blog article called Capstone projects and time management which is pretty critical of university computer science/software engineering programs. For example:
It is amazing how easy it is to sail through a Computer Science degree from a top university without ever learning the basic tools of software developers, without ever working on a team, and without ever taking a course for which you don't get an automatic F for collaborating. Many CS departments are trapped in the 1980s, teaching the same old curriculum that has by now become completely divorced from the reality of modern software development.

Many CS departments are trapped in the 1980s, teaching the same old curriculum that has by now become completely divorced from the reality of modern software development.
Mark Dennehy has a reply posted called Joel Spolsky, Snake-Oil Salesman that makes all the expected academic rebuttals. For example:
Undergraduate courses in CS and CEng are not there to teach industrial tools, but basic principles No student is expected to graduate and be able the next day to walk into an industrial role without supervision or training, and no student has ever been expected to do that in Engineering since the first undergraduate course started in TCD in 1841.
Undergraduate courses in CS and CEng are not there to teach industrial tools, but basic principles
No student is expected to graduate and be able the next day to walk into an industrial role without supervision or training, and no student has ever been expected to do that in Engineering since the first undergraduate course started in TCD in 1841.
And well you probably know the rest though I have to say this is one of the bests collections/explanations of the issues I've read in a while. So what is the right thing to do? I have some ideas (why blog if otherwise? :-) )
I stand with a foot in industry (employed by a company) and a foot in education (by inclination,experience and the focus of my work). I've taught students who have gone on to careers in industry and I've worked with many recent graduates throughout my career. It seem that often industry doesn't understand what academia is trying to do, can do, and thinks they should be doing. Likewise many in academia seem to care little about what industry thinks they need in new hires and recent graduates. Plus academia doesn't have time to teach everything they would like let alone what industry would like them to teach. Compromise is the word of the day.
It's hard, very hard, to fit large projects into a curriculum. In high school, in university and even in graduate school the semester or the quarter is the rule and that is not enough time for a really large project. Emphasis on individual students learning concepts in a deep may make all but small team projects are difficult to manage, to grade and even to conceive. I think there is some room for projects outside of class though.
Unfortunately a lot of students have to work jobs to help pay for their education and that takes up a lot of time. The full-time student in the old sense of the word isn't as common as it once was. But I think that when students can they should think about creating projects outside of their course work. At the university level, the Imagine Cup is one potential opportunity. I think that students could also look at service projects for local organizations may also be possible. Non-profits often cannot afford professional work but may be willing to accept help from teams of students.
The benefit to students are that they are forced to develop scheduling and time management because projects that are done the day before a deadline are not likely to meet the needs of clients. many competitions that are project based, such as the Imagine Cup, have intermediate deadlines that also have to be met. Students also gain experience that they can talk about during interviews. Companies are impressed by students whose learning and achievement goes beyond what is required by course work.
While none of this is necessarily a magic bullet there is a chance for students to go beyond what they are learning in class.
Only point: Academia exists for two purposes:
1. To do research that benefits businesses (and indirectly society) into creating new products. (I would argue that this shouldn't be a purpose, but it is so sigh.)
2. Produce employees for business.
The problem with the educational system is that everyone has forgotten who the real customer is (and who should be paying for it)
Business is the customer of academia, not the employee. They benefit from the education, much like the mechanic that undergoes training from the car company that he works for, but it is the business that materially benefits and thus is the customer. Getting a PHd in cow sexual reproduction is useless to everyone involved unless there is a job at a business that can use this skill. It doesn't benefit the employee and it doesn't benefit the business.
Yes, yes, you can argue that the knowledge has intrinsic value (it does not, it only has value if it has utility just like everything else, even if it is just to impress your girlfriend and thus get her pants off). But the knowledge has to materially improve your life (be of value) to be worth something. Knowing the mechanics of cows having sex, unless you are in the cattle breeding industry doesn't have any use, thus it's pointless waste of time. The demand for the knowledge will determine it's worth and thus determine how many universities would be teaching that course if businesses were the customers!
Academia does not listen to business and the results are obvious. CS is an excellent example of this. What they teach is completely divorced from reality. (i.e. I got taught Scheme in first year... which exactly 0 people use...even those doing AI) Make me useful in my chosen career. Enable me to make more money because I'm more useful to business. Make businesses want me more because I can make them more money. That is the purpose of higher education. Not to learn abstract crap that doesn't have any material value (i.e. ability to improve one's life).
(oh and tech me in fields that I can actually get a job in, not "Ancient english literature which assures that you're only job is working in the same department that you went to school in.)
There is no compromise. Schools work for business, PERIOD.
You know how much of a fan I am of the Imagine Cup! I'm doing again this year, but this time as a mentor for the MangoBunnies. Either way, I just wanted to point out the students in high school can do the Imagine Cup too! I think the age cut basement is 16, so that's at least juniors and seniors!
I completely agree with you about the interest level of this topic. I definitely read both blog posts, comments, and discussions. Everyone seems to be making really really good points. It's likely that something needs to happen with the categorizing of CS subjects. It's almost as if the system is so broken (for students going into industry) that no one really wants to take on the huge project to fix it!
You're mistaken about academia in two ways. Firstly, the purpose of academia is not to do research solely for the benefit of business; pure research is also vital. Applications of pure research are not always immediately apparent. The discovery of the electron was initially hailed as being of no real benefit to anyone, don't forget.
Secondly, the real customer of academia *is not business*. The real customer of academia *is the student*. It is to them that the duty of care is owed, and it is an ethical responsibility of the universities to teach the students what will benefit them the most in the long term. Industry's wishes in this are *very* much in second place and should never be any other way because industry has no duty of care to anyone bar industry!
(BTW, you weren't taught Scheme to teach you Scheme. You got taught Scheme because it forces your head to work in a different way to the way C forces it to work, or the way Haskell forces it to work. You were being taught the mindset, not the language).
And BTW, when I did my undergrad degree (some 15-16 years ago now), we not only had a long-term solo project at a high difficulty level, we also had several team projects per year, and we had entries into several external projects like the IEEE Micromouse project. All that Joel would have asked for and thought novel today, has been happening in decent schools for longer than Joel's been programming himself...

The search is now over for two female inmates who escaped from a prison in Niantic.
The facility was immediately placed in lockdown and the escape was considered a walk-away since the offenders were housed in a minimum security area of the facility.
Residents in the area were alerted of the escape by the state's reverse 911 system.
The Corrections Department, along with local and state police, analyzed surveillance video from the prison and gathered information to eventually track down Riley and Rivera in Hartford.
The two inmates were being transported to State Police in Montville after they were found. They are both being held on $500,000 bond and will appear before a judge on Monday after being charged with escape from custody.

A Wedding From Hell
Please, Make It Stop
There are a couple of mysteries involved with Rachel Getting Married, the dark new family drama from Oscar-winning director Jonathan Demme (who won for Silence of the Lambs way back in 1991). The first involves the plot, in which Kym (Anne Hathaway) exits rehab and rolls right into the at-home family-wedding weekend of her sister Rachel (Rosemarie DeWitt). What is it that has made Kym such an emotional mess that the young woman has been through numerous stints in drug and alcohol rehabilitation? And is she finally at peace with her demons?
Those answers begin to leak out almost immediately, as this unsettling cinéma vérité-style drama unfolds. Amidst the shaky camera work and grainy film stock, the truth of Kym's messed–up life is revealed, as she selfishly shifts the focus of the weekend from her sister's nuptials to her broken family's deeply hidden emotional angst.
As the story drags on and on, and as Kym's behavior devolves into one squirmingly bad and predictable screw-up after another, the other mystery begins to wash over the viewer—that is, the mystery of how this came to be a feature film, rather than a made-for-television movie designed for airing on Oxygen or the Lifetime Channel. Obviously, the answer is the combination of rising star Hathaway and veteran director Demme, but regardless of that talent pedigree, the film still plays out like any of the countless histrionic "chick flick" family dramas that predominate those cable networks.
The key difference here is that if you have paid ten dollars to get in, you feel compelled to stick it out to the very end. There, after a long series of interminable and tense scenes among various family members, the wedding finally happens—and that, too, seems to go on forever. It is hard to believe that the film runs just under two hours; rather, it feels like a marathon run in a morass while it is playing out, and it is ultimately depressing as well. In other words, this wedding is no party.

Frank White
Organization Resources Counselors, Inc.
1910 Sunderland Place, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20036-1608
Dear Mr. White:
Thank you for your letter of March 9 asking for a clarification of OSHA's injury and illness recordkeeping requirements (29 CFR 1904) as they relate to the maintenance of forms using computer systems. As you noted in your letter, the existing regulations (1904.2 (b)) allow for computerization and centralization of the OSHA 200 Log and Summary of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses, but are silent on the issue of whether or not an employer may maintain the OSHA 101 Supplementary Record of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses in such a manner.
OSHA has decided to modify its previous policy as set out in the enclosed 1992 letter from Stephen A. Newell to Charles R. Payne. We will now allow employers additional flexibility to maintain the OSHA 101 records in a manner that best suits their individual needs without affecting the value of the information to the government. In addition, OSHA believes the entry of this information into a computerized database will make it easier for the employer to analyze the data for management of workplace safety and health activities. While OSHA does not require employers to conduct these types of analysis, we do encourage employers to use their occupational injury and illness information to improve workplace safety and health conditions.
Thus, an employer may keep the OSHA 101 forms on data processing equipment, at a central location, or both, if three conditions are met as follows:
The current regulation does not include a time within which the employer must produce the records during an OSHA inspection. OSHA's February 1996 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) included provisions, that if adopted as a final rule, would require employers to produce the records within 4 hours of a request during an onsite visit. However, these provisions have not been finalized and are not in effect at this time. Under the current system, the employer must produce the records for an inspector within a reasonable time frame that may vary depending on the circumstances of the request. It is our position that the employer would be in compliance with the current regulation's "reasonable time frame" and OSHA's NPRM position on the issue if he or she can produce the supplementary records within 4 hours.
Ruth McCully
Acting Coordinator,
OSHA Information Technology

33Across announced the launch of its Real Platform™, the first and only publisher traffic and monetization platform to guarantee the quality of its ads, verifying that impressions are in view and seen by humans, not bots. The platform includes two distinct marketplaces, Real Impact™ and Real Display™. Real Impact guarantees 100% viewability and fraud-free placements. Real Display also blocks suspicious traffic and delivers ads above the fold. The 33Across Real Platform addresses the issues of fraud and viewability in three significant ways. First, proprietary, human-centered technology places ads where they are most likely to be seen. Specifically, 33Across' direct relationships with more than 500 quality publishers enable Real Impact to create ad placements in areas of a site where ads don't normally appear. This reduces banner blindness and has proven to boost engagement by more than five times, as benchmarked against industry standards. Second, 33Across has further strengthened its comprehensive publisher evaluation and vetting process. To ensure buyers receive quality inventory, all publishers must pass a stringent twelve-step inventory quality process and ongoing weekly quality monitoring to participate in the Real Platform. Third, 33Across partnered with industry leader, Integral Ad Science, to optimize and evaluate the quality of impressions sold on the Real Platform. Integral's solutions utilize the industry's most innovative technology to verify viewability and avoid fraudulent traffic on the Real Platform.
33Across announced the appointment of Paul Bell to chief revenue officer. In this role, Bell is responsible for driving the alignment of the organization's business functions including direct and programmatic sales, and customer service to ensure maximum revenue generation. Bell reports to the company's Chief Executive Officer Eric Wheeler. A seasoned digital media and data executive with more than 15 years experience, Bell most recently served as the vice president, head of digital sales and channel management at IXI.

What I need or require:
I need a website designed for my property investment business. It should contain basic information about my business, possible include videos (which i can upload via YouTube), the ability for users to downlaod free reports, but done via data capture, sio i would want their name and e-mail address to get the free report etc. And, it will need an enquiry form.....one that is capable of making a simple calculation. Eg, If their property is worth £/$ 100,000, when they 'click' submit, and it will produce an offer based on a % range of that amount.
It will need to be search engine freindly, and I would like to discuss SEO as a separate job.
This is a new site and will require full design. I will provide the text for the pages.....probably most useful if the site is self-editable and i can add more pages in the future.
Specific expertise/background that I am seeking:
Ideally, experienc ein designing similar sites withgin the property sector.

There's nothing like a good, mean-spirited, convention-bucking story to get you past the Thursday-morning doldrums. A riveting recent piece in the U.K.'s Guardian Unlimited asked popular musicians (New Order's Peter Hook, Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos, the Hold Steady's Craig Finn, and others) to pan classically revered albums from the annals of rock, which they did with evil aplomb.
