Nobel Winner; Oldest Man on Earth; Ex-Lyric Director
Byline: Daily Herald news services
Japan's Jiroemon Kimura, recognized by Guinness World Records as the oldest man in recorded history, has died at the age of 116.
Kimura died of natural causes in a hospital in his hometown of Kyotango, western Japan.
Born on April 19, 1897, when Queen Victoria still reigned over the British Empire, Kimura dodged childhood killers such as tuberculosis and pneumonia that kept life expectancy in Japan to 44 years around the time of his birth. He became the oldest man in recorded history on Dec. 28, 2012, at the age of 115 years and 253 days.
The oldest woman in recorded history, France's Jeanne Calment, died in 1997 at the age of 122.
His wife, Yae, died in 1978 at the age of 74. Four of Kimura's five siblings lived to be more than 90 years old, and his youngest brother, Tetsuo, died at 100, Timatso Miyake, his nephew, said.
Miller Barber, the unique-swinging golfer who made the most combined starts on the PGA and Champions tours, has died. He was 82.
Barber, nicknamed "Mr. X," played in 1,297 tournaments on the PGA Tour and 50-and-over circuit. He won 11 times in 694 PGA Tour starts and added 24 victories in 603 events on the Champions Tour.
Robert Fogel, a Nobel Prize-winning economic historian who used empirical data in innovative and iconoclastic ways, most notably to dispute longheld assumptions about why slavery collapsed as an institution in the United States, died at a rehabilitation facility in Oak Lawn, Ill. He was 86.
The cause was pneumonia, said his daughter-in-law Suzanne Fogel. Fogel, a Chicago resident, spent much of his career at the University of Chicago and directed its Center for Population Economics.
Fogel shared the 1993 Nobel Prize for Economic Sciences with Douglass North, then of Washington University in St. Louis. Both winners were on the 1960s vanguard of a field known as cliometrics, which merges economic theory with statistical analysis of hard numbers raked from the past; Clio is the muse of history in Greek mythology.
Fogel drew on historical documents such as medical records, census data and pension documentation, and then used modern computing systems to process the information. The Nobel citation credited him with "having renewed research in economic history by applying economic theory and quantitative methods in order to explain economic and institutional change."
"Fogel was one of the intellectual pioneers and certainly the most visible member of a generation of economic historians who transformed the discipline from what had been narrative history into history informed by economic theory and statistical methods," said Barry Eichengreen, an economics and political science professor at the University of California at Berkeley.
Bruno Bartoletti, an orchestra conductor who was associated with the Lyric Opera of Chicago for a half-century, and who championed modern opera as well as classic works, died in his native Tuscany, a day before his 87th birthday.
The Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, where the maestro had served as artistic director from 1985 until 1991, said Bartoletti died in a Florence hospital after a long illness.
In a career that saw Bartoletti conduct well into his 80s -- he directed Giacomo Puccini's "Manon Lescaut"at Florence's Teatro Comunale in February 2011 -- he served as the first music director of Chicago's Lyric Opera, starting as guest conductor there in 1956, when he was relatively unknown.
Bartoletti was 30 when the then 2-year-old Lyric Opera needed a replacement conductor for Giuseppe Verdi's `'Il Trovatore" in 1956. Baritone Tito Gobbi endorsed him, and Bartoletti made his American debut with the company. He conducted more than 600 performances of 55 operas in the Lyric, in his 51 years there, with his last in 2007. He served as co-artistic director with Pino Donati from 1965 till 1975, and as artistic director from 1975 till 1999. …

in response to Jdog--westpalmAn iPad requires the content to be synced onto the device via iTunes on a computer. The content in iTunes needs to be local, in the sense that you can place it in playlists on that computer. I do not know how you have set up your content to be served from a home server.
Future updates? We are just other users. We do not have crystal balls that tell us the future.
Jdog--westpalm Apr 21, 2010 7:36 AM
in response to Matthew SmithMy server has an Itunes server application with all my data stored on it (music, photos, etc.). It is connected to my wireless router. My laptops have itunes on them. The itunes directory on my laptop is pointed to my itunes server(instead of the local machine). My laptops will play all my music, photos, and videos from the server wirelessly (and flawlessly). If I download a song or movie from Itunes on my laptop, it will upload to my server rather than my laptop. All my data is centrally stored this way. I have over 75GB of music and 50gb of pics on my server and it would be nice to be able to access it via my ipad wirelessly(as I do with my laptops)rather than downloading some of my music and some of my pictures to the ipad.
Matthew Smith Apr 21, 2010 2:06 PM
in response to Jdog--westpalmThe iPad is like an iPod. It requires the content on the device. It needs to sync with iTunes.
Dryne Dec 1, 2010 11:04 PM
in response to Jdog--westpalmI have struggling with this on my iPad attempting to do the same thing! It seems that the iPad cannot access iTunes served streamed media. The latest version of iTunes installed on computers can though. In my case, my NAS has a built-in iTunes server that all computer based iTunes clients can access with no problem. iPad's iTunes app doesn't allow the iPad to access remote media.
Not sure why Apple decided to not let the device access streamed media, and I think this should be allowed in a future update. My NAS is a QNAP though, and QNAP has a free Qmobile app available at the iTunes store that allows my iPad to stream content from the server.
You may have to find an app that allows your iPad to do what you want.

Does not play back drm'ed media, but will stream video.
aaron114 Aug 21, 2011 9:30 AM
in response to Jdog--westpalm
Short answer: No. (unless someone has found a way to do this?)
the iPad will pick up shared libraries using the iTunes home sharing function but not using NAS based iTunes servers.
You can use 3rd party apps as suggested, although it's not quite the same as actually sharing your iTunes library.
A work-around I'm using: Use a computer and keep it's itunes library on the NAS (via SMB), then share this library using home sharing. It's not ideal, but means the library isn't taking up space on your computer and you can stream to your iPad.
Please let me know if anyone has any better solutions!

I had the same problem. There is no way to natively stream media from an iTunes server to an IOS device.
That being said, there is an easy way to do it. Have a look at the free "Buzz Player" app. It's simple to use, finds your shares on your local network automatically (UPNP/DNLA/Traditional Shares), and plays most formats of audio and video.
The REALLY nice thing about this is that with a little configuration you can stream your media on the go through Buzz Player (and an FTP connection) - I stream all types of media on a regular basis and it works FLAWLESSLY.

in response to Jdog--westpalm
I am not sure if this is a terminolgy question, or a functional difference, but you can certainly play the content of your i tunes library on your pad using home sharing. I do it all the time. Does not sound as neat as streaming from a server, but is there a funtional difference?
aaron114 Nov 3, 2011 3:27 AM
in response to pjl123
Ah.. it's a slightly different thing:
Home sharing allows you to play songs from your iTunes library on your computer on other iOS or iTunes clients.
iTunes servers are sometimes found in NAS devices which allow you to offer up the iTunes library as a shared library on your network.
The difference is very slight, but it means that iOS devices can't see shared iTunes libraries, so they can only play tracks which are part of home sharing.
Hope that makes sense, someone else can probably explain it better than me..

There is a way around. Crazy one
- Buy a Rasberry Pi,
- put there 2G SD,
- instal Ubuntu or other Linux
- install WINE, (free download available here).
- check to see if your version of Linux needs any extras installed to support iTunes or its files.
- install 32bit version of Itunes for Windows
- run it, use Home Share and enjoy

|JOINT ESTIMATION OF TISSUE TYPES AND LINEAR ATTENUATION COEFFICIENTS FOR COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY - The present invention is directed to a new joint estimation framework employing MAP estimation based on pixel-based latent variables for tissue types. The method combines the geometrical information described by latent MRF, statistical relation between tissue types and P-C coefficients, and Poisson noise models of PCD data, and makes possible the continuous Baysian estimation from detected photon counts. The proposed method has better accuracy and RMSE than the method using FBP and thresholding. The joint estimation framework has the potential to further improve the accuracy by introducing more information about tissues in human body, e.g., the location, size, and number of tissues, or limited variation of neighboring tissues, which will be easily formulated by pixel-based latent variables.

The Germans were ecstatic when Barack Obama landed in Berlin. They called him the "American Idol," a political superstar they expected to walk on the River Spree. He didn't walk on water, but he didn't disappoint. He promised to remake the world where everybody would love everybody.
"There is a sort of 'Obamamania' in Germany right now," says an aide in German Chancellor Angela Merkel's office, "but I think a lot of people will have their illusions shattered if he does become president."
He's a novelty who causes skeptics to suggest he paraphrase JFK's famous boast at the Berlin Wall: "Ich bin ein beginner." He draws admiration as much for not being George W. as for being the first black presumptive nominee for president.
Europeans, like many Americans, are besotted by sentiment, basing their judgment on what they feel, not what they know. He sounds like he's running for president of the world. The candidate strings words together with enormous flair, but his speeches sound better than they read. The words dazzle, but lack precision. The cadences make music, but music marred by occasional false notes. He complains that his audiences lack focus and are easily distracted, but the real trick is in his rhetoric.
In prescribing more troops for the war in Afghanistan, he calls Iraq a "dangerous distraction." Iraq is dangerous but not a distraction. Iraq, in fact, is a less dangerous place than it was before the surge, which John McCain supported and Obama did not. (When he had the chance, he voted against sending more troops to Afghanistan, too.)
When his campaign suggested that he might speak at the Brandenburg Gate, and he switched to the nearby Victory Column, he said he didn't want the setting to be a distraction. But an appearance at the Brandenburg Gate wouldn't distract so much as reflect his chutzpah. He forced Merkel into the schoolmarm mode, to raise an eyebrow at the choice the chancellor called "odd" for a candidate who was not yet wearing a president's breeches.
William Safire, the New York Times word maven, examined the language he calls "Obamese" and observes that the candidate's use of the word "distraction" smacks of being "defensive," as if criticism is a "diversion of attention" rather than an attempt to gain insight into the man and his message.

While Shabbat itself is a haven of peace and quiet, the few minutes leading up to it on a Friday afternoon have caused quite a bit of noise in one Jewish area.
A Shabbat siren has been announcing the imminent arrival of the Sabbath in Stamford Hill in North East London. In fact, it is not a siren, but rather, a selection of music and songs being played over a number of loudspeakers.
A state-aided Jewish secondary school has been ordered to change its admissions criteria to make clear it will admit non-Jewish children if it cannot fill all its places with Jewish pupils.
The Zemel Choir will be taking part in a special concert to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Kristallnacht at Belsize Square synagogue in north west London on Sunday evening.
The Zemel will be joined by the Polyphonies Hébraïques de Strasbourg, a 40-strong mixed choir that is based in the Jewish studies and Hebrew department of the Marc Bloch University of Strasbourg.
The government may face a challenge to a law that will raise the marriage visa age from 18 to 21.
Campaigners, led by Michoel Posen of Agudas Israel Community Services in Stamford Hill, have warned that the law will have a severe effect on many marriages in the Charedi community, involving young people from Israel, America and Canada.
European Union countries are not affected by the law, due to come into force on November 27.
Vandals daubed antisemitic symbols and references to the British National Party and Muslims around the promenade and a children's attraction in Rhyl in North Wales last week.
North Wales police have started an investigation and have been examining CCTV footage of the area.
Anglo-Jewish educationalists have given a cautious greeting to a government announcement that it wants to introduce compulsory lessons for children aged five to 16 on subjects such as sex and drugs.
The lessons would be brought in under the umbrella of personal, social and health education (PSHE) and will be compulsory from September 2010.
Tough new laws announced this week to stop foreign extremist preachers who spread racist and religious hatred from entering Britain have been welcomed by the Community Security Trust.
Among the measures announced by Home Secretary Jacqui Smith will be a quarterly "name and shame" list given to Parliament of those excluded. The list will also be shared with other countries.
A convicted Holocaust denier has won a fight to avoid extradition to Germany where he would have faced more allegations of denial.
German-born Frederick Toben, 64, was arrested at Heathrow airport at the beginning of October after arriving from America en route to Dubai. He was held under a European Union warrant issued by German authorities.
Allegations that a police trainer has labelled a proposed commemoration of the Munich Olympics massacre at the 2012 London Olympics "a security threat" have been vehemently denied.
An Islamic scholar, hired by Scotland Yard to train police on interfaith issues, had warned that a commemoration ceremony "could become a national security threat if it was not managed properly and was perceived by Muslims to be 'hijacking' the Games", The Times reported this week.
Parents who are thinking of sending their children to the Jewish Community Secondary School in East Barnet can visit the school on Sunday - even though it has not been built yet.
A public exhibition to be held on Sunday afternoon and Monday evening at East Barnet Upper School in Westbrook Crescent will offer visitors a "virtual" tour of what the school will look like when it opens in September, 2010.
The school's governors and trustees will be on hand to answer questions and talk to prospective parents.
The seeds of a reactivated extreme right-wing alliance in Europe were being sown this week by British National Party leader Nick Griffin, who made visits to Hungary and the Czech Republic.
Mr Griffin was invited to the two East European countries by representatives of extremist parties who had made trips to Britain earlier in the year.
Talks have begun to try to restart educational visits to Auschwitz for Scottish schools, under the auspices of the Holocaust Educational Trust.
Academics have come out in support of a new move to take the University and College Union to court unless it retracts a national conference resolution that has threatened a "back-door" boycott of Israel.
The anonymous litigants have called on the union, via solicitors Mishcon de Reya, to repay any union funds it may have spent on enacting the motion.
In May the UCU conference passed a resolution asking academics to consider the moral and political implications of any links with Israeli institutions.
Jewish schools are expected to be given a clean bill of health over admissions policies when a new national report is published next month.
The report, by Sir Philip Hunter, chief schools adjudicator, was compiled after a controversy over admissions to faith schools was sparked in April by schools secretary Ed Balls. Mr Balls claimed that Jewish state-maintained schools in Barnet and Greater Manchester were wrongly seeking contributions from prospective parents and asking questions about marital status that broke admissions codes.
A member of New York's Orthodox community has been charged with serious sexual offences against his daughter, a girl who spent several years at school in Manchester.
Federal prosecutors have also moved to keep the man in custody until his trial because they feared he would attempt to interfere with witnesses and flee the country.
Police have condemned a move to set up a New York-style private security force in the borough that hosts Britain's biggest Orthodox community.
The force, based on the Shomrim (guards) in New York, has already been given credit on a number of strictly Orthodox websites for having taken part last month in the successful search in Stamford Hill for two missing boys aged six and nine.
A businessman wanted on fraud charges in America has been allowed to attend his son's barmitzvah in Israel after rabbis pledged £2m in sureties.
Zev Saltsman, who lives in Hendon, North-West London, was arrested in London a year ago after he was named as one of six men accused by US federal prosecutors in Brooklyn.
He was alleged to have made $55m (£31.5m) in fraudulent profits through private share sales. He has not admitted the allegations in the USA.

A warning has been issued to every minister in the United Synagogue to be on their guard in case a convicted conman turns up on their doorstep.
The warning was sent out a day after the man, 40-year-old Bradley Silver, was given a suspended prison sentence after he admitted three charges relating to forged cheques.
The death of a man on Monday brought the heartland of Jewish north-west London to a sudden halt.
Dozens of police - many of them armed with automatic weapons - sealed off Highfield Road in Golders Green after receiving an emergency call saying shots had been fired.

love the sketchy feel to this. your work is awesome!
gostei muito do seu estilo
Nice...but how can she breath in space?
Very admirable work - you've a simple, yet effective colouring style, and the poses are interesting and dynamic. The only thing that makes my eyes itch is the robos hand - it kinda looks outta place (maybe has the wrong angle or something); clearly the girl is leaning on it and thus bending your palm like that doesn't give you any grip whatsoever. Although, it's a robot, so what the hell can I know. Otherwise really great craft!

It is reported that in the film, Kapoor essays the role of a bachelor, a Goan ex-sailor running a restaurant who has crossed the age of marriage but still gets excited at the prospect of meeting a girl.
'Chashme Buddoor' is the remake of 1981 hit romantic comedy by the same name. Besides Kapoor, it stars Pakistani singer-actor Ali Zafar, south actor Siddharth, Divyendu Sharma of 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama' fame, south actress Tapsee Pannu, Juhi Chawla and Anupam Kher.

Three years ago, Minnesota voters agreed to tack on three eighths of one percent to the state sales tax through 2034 to preserve Minnesota's cultural and environmental legacy.
Today, we'll get the first good look at how that money's being spent when the legislative auditor releases an accountability report on the funds.
There have been plenty of questions the past few months about where the money's going -- and what else it might finance, including a Vikings stadium. There's been a push, too, to repeal the amendment altogether.
We'll look today at the amendment and dig into the report when it becomes available.
Minnesota Public Radio is among 18 public broadcasters receiving arts and culture Legacy money. It has submitted financial reports on the $2.6 million it spent in the first two years to the state Department of Administration.

Q: What do you think about shedding?
Do you prefer dogs that don't shed or do you not care?
Sep 27, 2009
I am partial to the poodle and poodle mixes. fortunately they dont shed but do require regular grooming. But since I am a groomer it doesnt matter much. I will probably end up with a short haired dog later down the line but it really doesnt matter either way to me they are all great
Thumbs Up: 1 | Thumbs up!
Sep 27, 2009
My first dog was a Maltese mix, her mom lived next door so they have a special place in my heart. When I was married we bought a Sheltie for our daughter and a Cockapoo for the Sheltie ; ) Later we bought another Sheltie for our son then an Aussie /Sheltie mix, loved them all .Then a black short haired dog that I can only describe as a Lab/Doxie mix jumped in my husbands open truck. I wasn't even sure about petting her unfluffy coat at first but of course I eventually did. We had her for 13 yrs. till she passed from lymph node cancer. It never seemed like she shed but of course she did but not even close to her predecessors. We still find fur from the Aussie /Sheltie mix and he passed about 4 yrs ago.
I do not miss all the fur that seemed to catch everywhere only the dogs but should we ever get another dog, it will be of the short hair variety.

I own dogs of both hair types and love them both equally. I am not an allergy sufferer so the hair doesn't bother me.

Public Funding Spurs Couples to Seek Fertility Treatment
HealthDay Reporter
Latest Pregnancy News
WEDNESDAY, May 15 (HealthDay News) -- Public funding of assisted reproductive technology, including in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments, broadens the range of couples who seek treatment for infertility by attracting a more diverse population, according to new research from Canada.
When the province of Quebec began to fund up to three cycles of IVF in August 2010, researchers compared patients who sought that treatment before and after the mandate.
Afterward, "we found larger numbers of lower income, less well-educated, unemployed people seeking fertility treatment," said Phyllis Zelkowitz, director of research in the department of psychiatry and senior investigator at the Lady Davis Institute of the Jewish General Hospital, in Montreal.
The study is published in the May 16 New England Journal of Medicine.
For the study, Zelkowitz and her colleagues compared data on nearly 3,600 couples. Of those, 436 sought treatment before the policy change, 821 immediately after and 2,316 eight months after the policy change.
The investigators found the proportion of treated couples with college degrees declined from 68 percent to 63 percent eight months later. Unemployed couples seeking treatment rose from 3.6 percent to 11.6 percent. And the proportion of patients with household incomes of $65,000 a year or less increased from about 37 percent to more than 47 percent.
For white couples, the proportion dropped from about 67 percent to 63 percent in the eight-month period, after rising immediately after the policy change.
Zelkowitz also found the rate of couples seeking treatment for secondary infertility doubled from 14 percent to 29 percent. Secondary infertility means being unable to get pregnant or carry a pregnancy to term after having one or more biological children.
The mandated policy change came with stipulations, Zelkowitz said. It approved coverage for up to three treatment cycles of IVF. It mandated the transfer of only one embryo per treatment cycle, with a goal of reducing preterm births, she noted.
Preterm births are more common with multiple pregnancies and are riskier to the babies, experts agree.
"One of the goals of the funding was to reduce preterm births, and they have already done that," Zelkowitz said.
The study findings are in conflict with earlier U.S. studies, which have shown that even when patients have access to public funding for assisted reproductive technology, barriers continue to exist, including social, economic and ethnic obstacles. As a result, these earlier studies suggested, the typical patients remain older, wealthier, more-educated white couples.
In the United States, infertility affects about one of eight women of reproductive age and their partners, according to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
Currently, 15 states have passed laws that mandate insurers to cover or offer coverage for infertility diagnosis and treatment, but some states exclude coverage for IVF.
Assisted reproductive technology is typically defined as fertility treatments in which both eggs and sperm are handled, such as IVF, but not procedures such as taking medicine to stimulate egg production, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Only about 5 percent of infertile couples need assisted reproductive technology, the society estimates.
For others, egg stimulation or lifestyle changes such as losing weight or stopping smoking can help them achieve a pregnancy.
However, for those who do need IVF, the cost can be prohibitive. A cycle of IVF costs about $12,400, the society estimates.
The study findings about patient demographics changing after public funding became available do not surprise Dr. Wendy Schillings, a fertility specialist in Allentown, Pa. When she meets patients who have only diagnosis covered, she said, they often delay treatment if they need IVF, hoping to save up the money needed.
Couples who don't have IVF coverage often ask for more embryos to be transferred, she said, and she then counsels them on the risks of multiple births.
"Absolutely lower-income couples can do it [seek treatment] and will do it," Schillings said. However, for those with higher incomes, the decision may involve fewer sacrifices, she added.

I smoked a pack a day for 30 years. 30 years. I tried to quit several times with the aid of nicotine gum or the patch or just chewing regular gum. I tried vaping, too. I failed, every time. The withdrawal symptoms were unbearable. If you've tried to quit you know what I'm talking about. I started Chantix and stopped smoking on day eight. I'm just a few weeks shy of one year, smoke free. ... Show Full Comment

Smoked for fifty years. Have been smoke free for two months with help of Chantix and lots of self determination. Not a magic pill. No nausea if you eat something prior to taking and drink at least 6-8oz of water with each dosage. Had brain fog entire time. Also bloat and gas. None of these symptoms will kill you like the cigarettes!
