A parent stepped up to pay for the damages and private patrol? Outstanding! I can only hope that it is the parent of one of the vandals, and that they make the kid pay them restitution. A golden teaching opportunity.

Not good enough. All of the kids need to pay for what happeneed. You play you pay. They should also make the repairs for the damage under supervision of trained personnel.

While it is great that the damage has been repaired, the courts and the DA should be holding these kids financially responsible through their sentencing. Having someone else rescue them and clean up their mess is a very bad message, however well intentioned.

Well, there certainly are enough public and private schools represented in this incident to target blame.

Sounds like a parent is trying to buy their child out of trouble. Wonder why they were pulling this BS in the first place? Could it be they've been bailed out of their stupid choices before?

Let's do the math: 7 kids: 5 from Woodside/PV and 2 from Redwood City...hmmm.... 2 of the kids are paying for their crimes (ARSON!!!) in juevinile hall and 5 are getting a relative slap on the wrist while a parent pays for the damages. What are we learning? Money buys you out of anything, no matter how severe. Unreal.

Unfortunately, I'm not surprised by these events or that our rich, young kids have some much free time (hence, the "boredom"). Although the group seems to represent a melange of public and private schools, I note that only St. Francis of the schools "represented" by our young felons actually has specific classes on morality and ethics (i.e. religion classes). Coincidence or not?
a resident of Woodside: other
on Aug 30, 2011 at 8:36 pm
It said a parent stepped up and paid for the damage. They were not bailed out of anything by their own parents, two of them are in Juvi learning their lesson and hope to god they learn it.

Question for readers: This incident took place early August, roughly one month into school summer vacations. The article lists the schools, yet the schools have absolutely no control over what kids do off campus during vacations. I suspect the schools still don't know the identity of some of these kids. Should the schools be informed of 'off season' issues like this and should such activities be subject to school disciplinary actions? If it happened during the school year on on home campus it would surely be a big deal and maybe even expulsion-worthy - but how about in this case? Just curious - your opinion?
a resident of Woodside: Family Farm/Hidden Valley
on Aug 31, 2011 at 1:37 pm
Morals and values begin at a young age. Based on the variety of secondary schools listed, these children most likely met in elementary school. If they went to Woodside Elementary School, where the damage occurred, I wouldn't be surprised why they did this. When you have parents binge drinking at auctions where some students sneak peeks and see this as well as moms dancing in red satin bras with see through tops at the school fundraiser, it is no surprise this is the outcome of the kids. It is a pity that the schools were mentioned and that this school paid a heavy price for the damage of its own students, when ultimately the parents are the ones who model this behavior and do not allow the school to maintain rules about parent behavior on campus at its fundraisers. If this things happen on campus, who knows what the children are exposed to at home.

My2bits offers good questions. Is there a mechanism in place to notify schools of students' criminal behavior, no matter when it occurs? Reading this made me sad, angry & worried.

I'm so glad none of the teenagers were from East Palo Alto or they woud have had a criminal record waiting for them and damaging their lives. There would be no shortage of indignation if race and social standing were different. The only good thing coming out of this is that now we know just where the authorities stand , if arson, with an explosive no less, is to be considered to mild an offense for consequences for the perpetrator. Where is the law when we need it?
a resident of Atherton: West Atherton
on Aug 31, 2011 at 5:03 pm
Beast - wake up! Two kids are paying the price and they aren't the Woodside kids. The security is a compromise between the parents and the school. The Woodside kids skate on this offense.

First of all, to "Black Dog" -- it doesn't specify who got sent to juvie and who got let off a bit easier. Let's not make assumptions here.
Second, what I'm wondering is why they placed emphasis on the fact that two of the perpetrators were girls?
a resident of Portola Valley: other
on Aug 31, 2011 at 7:06 pm
And what exactly were they doing with baseball bats and mail boxes?
If they were using gasoline to start the fires, how was that transported, in a car I assume. Over the course of 3 days?! These are troubled kids involved in potentially very dangerous criminal activities and they need to be shamed and then taught that this will not be tolerated in our community. I feel badly for the other younger kids at Woodside Elementary that they were exposed to this and the fears they may now have.

rich kids with too much time on their hands with parents who are out chasing money and pushing their causes. now the kids and parents can reflect on this and rebound and learn or fizzle which probably will be the case.
a resident of Menlo Park: other
on Nov 10, 2011 at 7:15 am
clearly none of you know what actually happened here. But fortunately i know the entire story. In a nutshell, the kids who were sent to juvie were the ones actually committing the crimes. The others were not even there and basically were friends of those kids. Then the guilty teens tagged them in a facebook post; they were guilty by association. So therefore they were sentenced to classes and community service for......Being friends with the wrong people. They actually did nothing wrong. So all of you who believe money bought them out, I beg to differ. Those who actually did the crime, were sentenced to a couple months in jail.

I ordered a pair of Sora brifters for my 8-speed commuter. They should be here today. I built this bike up last fall with bar-end shifters and, while I like them, I don't like taking a hand off the hoods to down shift on a hill while being passed by an 18-wheeler. Or anything else, for that matter.
The bar-ends are ultimately reliable, simple, forgiving, and easy to use. I just want the comfort of not having to move my hands.

The addition of Gettysburg to the YAIAA wasn't going to come without its complications. The biggest dilemma, for football at least, will be what to do with that dreaded bye week facing Division II programs come 2014.
"Start scrambling for games," West York coach Ron Miller said this week. "The early part of the season isn't that bad. We're always looking for teams in (Week) 1 through 4."
The YAIAA is surveying its options. One that came up in January was to propose an agreement with the Mid-Penn to match teams from its 31-member league with the YAIAA Division II schools looking for opponents. Remember that Big Ten vs. Pac-12 college football series that isn't happening? It's kind of like that. And with the Mid-Penn down to an even 30 after Susquenita's departure to the Tri-Valley, a YAIAA vs. Mid-Penn notion is quickly sinking if it's not already sunk.
One solution could be the Berks League, where its smaller division consists of seven teams like the YAIAA's second division will be in 2014. Although, travel would become a concern.
Kennard-Dale voted against Gettysburg joining the YAIAA for that reason. Having to drive 70 or 80 miles to the Reading area is not ideal. Plus, facing Class AAA schools might not appeal to the mostly Class AA Berks schools, although state champion Wyomissing and Berks Catholic, the league's top two teams last year, play mostly AAA non-league games.
The seven Berks League schools currently fill their open weeks with teams from the Lancaster-Lebanon League, such as Class A Columbia, to the Lehigh Valley, with AAA Allentown Central Catholic. The L-L's third division also has seven teams, and they have a mix from AAA Donegal and Garden Spot to A Columbia, which, despite its size, hasn't kept Northeastern from an annual game.
If the YAIAA cannot find a partner for those bye-week slots, the schools will be on their own to find non-league opponents in the middle of league season around the PIAA.
Speaking of Gettysburg: The school's athletic director, Carlos Wampler, confirmed with South Western athletic director Don Seidenstricker the schools' plan to keep their Week 1 football rivalry intact for the future.
For Gettysburg, the appeal of joining the YAIAA was short drives to schools, such as South Western and New Oxford. Wampler added he hopes to add the Colonials for a long-term football date in Week 2 or 3.
Tour of Duty: When Kennard-Dale girls' lacrosse coach Kelly Wetzel laughed last week before reasserting one of his top players, Lyndsey Duty, is in fact a sophomore, it was as if he knew he was in an enviable spot.
But this is nothing new.
In the previous two seasons he not only had the YAIAA Division II Player of the Year -- Katie Fonte in 2011 and Nicole Black in 2012 -- he also had them back for the following seasons. That means he has Black teaming with Duty, who also stars on the Rams' field hockey team. Just don't ask Duty to pick one sport.
"When I'm playing lacrosse I miss field hockey, and when I'm playing field hockey I miss lacrosse," Duty said. "They're all equal to me."
The Rams' younger standout has already received college interest for both sports. A few Division III schools have made inquiries for field hockey, while others have contacted Duty's coaches for lacrosse.
As for what she'll pick, she still has two more years. That should keep Wetzel smiling while opposing coaches cringe.
Shot of momentum: The Eastern York boys' volleyball team is on somewhat of a roll since its season-opening loss to Dallastown. Despite being 3-1 entering play Thursday, right behind league powers Northeastern and Central York, Golden Knights coach Carol Thompson issued caution.
Her team, coming off a 22-25, 19-25, 25-9, 25-20, 15-13 win Tuesday at York Suburban, still must play with depth issues. Much of it has to do with injuries early and, recently, a loss to ineligibility. Still, to come back from two games down against Suburban added a shot of momentum to a squad that needed it.
"You had Jake Kauffman on the other side and you're trying to keep the ball away from him," Thompson said. "We just consistently stayed in the game mentally. I hadn't seen that all year until that point."

It really makes the build look like one of those new modern skyscrapers in a new city, yet with a traditional feel. The rooftop garden definitely is a plus to the aesthetic feel of the build. Although, the build is just a little blocky (well it is Minecraft) and some cars along the road would suit the build well. Overall this build is amazing! You deserve a favorite and a llama!

Granby Limits Maury
Matt Eagle homered and pitched 5.2 innings to earn the win as Granby defeated Maury 5-1. Eagle did not allow an earned run while striking out three. Trey Hanchey struck out three of the five batters he faced to closed the game out.
Eagle homered to left field for a 1-0 Comets lead in the 2nd inning and added a single in the 4th inning to help Granby take a 2-0 lead. The Comets added two insurance runs in the sixth from the bottom of their lineup. Ben Lynch drove in a run with a sacrifice fly and James Greer scored from second on a single from number nine hitter Spencer Matthews.
Eagle and Matthews had multi-hit games and Bobby Starcher had an RBI single. Maury was limited to four hits.

Mind-Body Walking: Medicine for Body and Spirit
Stress follows you everywhere, even into your workouts, and its voice is powerful. It reminds you how much stuff you have to do and how many things you have been putting off. It drags your body down and makes you feel sluggish, convincing you that your workout is hard. If only you could dump your stress and take a break. Your plate is too loaded, though. Time is precious. However, you can combine a workout for your body with a workout for your mind by mind-body walking.
Nothing NewHenry David Thoreau was aware of mind-body walking more than 100 years ago when he wrote, "I am alarmed when it happens that I have walked into the woods bodily, without getting there in spirit."Mind-body walking is exercise with an internal component. That could mean focusing on breathing while strength training or listening to the rhythm of the water while swimming. Walking just happens to provide one of the greatest vehicles for melding mind with body.
What Is Mind-Body Walking?Mind-body walking is something you are probably not used to doing. If you are like most people, your mind never stops doing chores, even when you exercise. You know all too well how high you have loaded your plate, and so while you are exercising, thoughts clang in your head. Mind-body walking means becoming aware of these thoughts and choosing to stop them.
What Can Mind-Body Walking Do for You?
- Improve your health—Walking offers numerous physical benefits such as improving your circulation and controlling your weight.
- Reduce stress—When walking becomes a mind-body workout, the mental benefits increase. The most obvious benefit is a reduction in stress, and therefore, stress-related illnesses.
- Achieve your goals—Spirited walking also allows you to achieve what you might never have thought possible. For instance, maintaining a 3 miles per hour (mph) pace while walking can be difficult. However, if you were to repeat to yourself the mantra, "I am strong and I am fit," walking at that pace might seem easier.
- Enhance personal growth—In addition, mind-body walking may also improve your self-esteem, stimulate creativity, keep exercise from getting boring, and allow for present moment awareness.

Dear rice cooker,
You acquisition was no easy feat, no easy feat at all. It required visits to 3 separate stores and a total of 60 minutes of 'discussion'. Where by 'discussion', I mean intense negotiations with the new husband of less than 1 month.
I learned during this shopping experience that there are in fact 2 types of rice cookers out there (a pot on the stove is not a rice cooker).
There's the Taiwanese rice cooker/steamer, which only has an on/off option, and uses steam and indirect heat to cook its contents:
And then there's the "all other Chinese people" one, which uses direct heat on the bowl to cook the rice. Note that it also has other built in options, i.e. brown rice, congee, sticky rice, etc:
You, rice cooker, are the latter, evidence that I 'won' our little discussion. HA!
This was a classic newly married couple experience. His mom uses the first steamer (the only person I know who owns this type of rice cooker), while my mom uses the second rice cooker. Naturally, I assumed when we began looking for a similar device, that we'd go with the tried and true steamer that I had known all my life. Silly of me to make that assumption. When I commented that I had never seen the steamer before, the salesperson pointed out that it was mostly Taiwanese people that used it. Ah, that would be why the in-laws use it!
Taiwanese steamer
- Pros: steam fish/meat/anything while also cooking your rice.
- Cons: aluminum/steel bowl is not non-stick, and there's no water level marks (you're supposed to guesstimate the amount of water to use!)
Regular rice cooker
- Pros: non-stick, easy to measure rice/water ratios, multiple cooking options
- Cons: steaming capabilities limited
In the end, we went with the regular rice cooker, as you can see from the picture of the finished rice below. Since the cooking is mostly done by me, it made sense for us to get the device that I preferred. When it comes to the lawn mower or snow blower – well that'll be his choice then. See, we can compromise!
Sweet Potato/Yam Rice
Adapted from Rasa Malaysia
1 sweet potato/yam, diced
1 3/4 cup rice (measured using a rice cooker cup)
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
1 lb ground pork
1 cup water (measured using a regular cup)
5 dried shiitake mushrooms (soaked in warm water, drained and cut into thin slices)
10 button mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil (for cooking)
1 scallion, cut into rounds
2.5 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1/2 teaspoon white sugar
2 dashes white pepper powder
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Measure the rice using the small rice cooker cup. Rinse the rice with water, then drain and set aside. (I rinse it 3x – don't ask me why, my mom's always done it this way).
Heat up a wok and add cooking oil. Stir-fry the onions until translucent, then add the garlic and stir for another minute. Add button mushrooms and cook until beginning to soften. Add pork, and shiitake mushrooms, breaking up the meat into small lumps. When the pork has browned, add water (measured using a regular measuring cup) and sweet potato cubes. Add all seasonings and bring to a boil. Add rice into the wok and stir to combine. Transfer everything into the rice cooker and follow regular rice cooking instructions (i.e. press Start!)
When the rice is done, loosen it up with the rice scooper and serve with chopped scallions.
Serves 4-5

Chad Qualls and Antonio Bastardo's names will not appear in the box score from yesterday's 1-0 win over the Pirates, but they did provide some indication of Charlie Manuel's plans for the back of the bullpen during the early-going this season. Qualls and Bastardo were both warming up as Roy Halladay finished the bottom of the eighth inning, which jibed with Manuel's earlier suggestion that he would rely on the veteran righty and the young lefty as his primary set-up men.
The Phillies hope that at some point in the not-so-distant future they will be able to add Jose Contreras to the mix, but judging by the veteran right-hander's performance in a rehab start in Clearwater yesterday, his return is not imminent.
Contreras retired just one of the four batters he faced, allowing three runs on two hits and a walk without striking out a batter in the first inning of a game against the Dunedin Blue Jays. Contreras threw 11 pitches, seven of which were balls. Two of his four strikes were hits, including a two-run home run by Marcus Knecht. He also threw two wild pitches before being replaced by lefty Frank Gailey, whom they acquired in exchange for Ben Francisco this offseason (Gailey struck out the two batters he faced).
The run down of Contreras' outing:


text: Haloumi is a mild yet salty cheese hailing from Greece. It's made from either goats or sheep's milk. It's charm is in it's firm texture, as you can grill or pan fry it without it turning into a big gooey mess. This Greek staple is a brilliant substitute for meat and it's especially wonderful with fresh herbs and sweet, ripe tomatoes. A robustly salty and chewy texture is unlike any other cheese you've had and is wonderful grilled and simply finished with a squeeze of lemon. It's the perfect summer addition to your up-coming cook-outs!

Interestingly, the cameo comic monologue by Robin Williams blew Rock out of the water. Williams apparently shares most of Rock's political beliefs, but at least he was funny. Williams followed in the edgy tradition of prior Academy Awards emcees like Whoopi Goldberg and Billy Crystal. They've all taken their jabs at conservative politicians, but with a sense of balance and with their funny bones in working order.
Why does any of this matter? It probably won't to Rock, who will remain entertaining and successful as the Oscars fanfare subsides. The point is less about Rock as an individual and more about the industry he represents.
In my handful of encounters with the film and entertainment industries several years ago, it was confided to me more than once by trusted friends and associates never to reveal that I was a Republican.
Those friends were right. From studios in California to newsrooms across the nation, there remains in place an overwhelming, if usually unspoken, article of faith that anyone Republican is unworthy and probably untalented.
Sure, the occasional Ben Stein is allowed to utter a few lines of pro-business sentiment during a comedy skit. Or someone of conservative-lite credentials may sometimes rise to the top, as Clint Eastwood did when he became mayor of Carmel, Calif.
When I made past appearances on TV "entertainment" shows, such as Bill Maher's "Politically Incorrect," it seemed customary for staff and fellow guests to warm up to me only when I mentioned that I was in the Republican minority because I liked Bill Clinton. That usually served to transform me in their eyes from a Newt Gingrich troglodyte to a reasonable, likeable fellow. (Host Maher was himself an exception to this rule; he balanced his own political views with those who felt differently.)
Unfortunately, Chris Rock isn't Bill Maher. At the Oscars, Rock stumbled out of the gate as an amateur entry in a field of political-humor pros. And he turned off many viewers who were only looking for a little Sunday night distraction before facing the real world again on Monday morning.
Despite the awards show, my family and I still don't regret being part of the handful of people who spent Thanksgiving Day 2001 viewing (and for the most part comprehending) Pootie Tang at the local cinema. If only I had comprehended Rock's comic strategy this time around.

Visual Studio 2005 Team System (VSTS) won't RTM for another year, or so. And while many of the major architectural design decisions have already been made, our software configuration management (SCM) lexicon remains somewhat in flux; and rightly so! In preparing for the big unveiling at TechEd, the VSTS user education team, in cooperation with our program managers, developers, and testers, hammered out a comprehensive set of scenario-driven whitepapers for VSTS that describe most of the mainline usage scenarios that are possible today. If you want to thank one person for these great papers, thank Rob Caron, who coordinated their production. Rob is responsible for the end-to-end documentation user experience for VSTS. Got doc ideas? Ping Rob.
Since I write documentation, you might be surprised to learn that I don't WANT you to read my help topics. Okay, you can read my whitepapers but I don't want you to have to read the help topics that I write for simple, or what should be simple HowTos. I certainly don't want you to have to read the help topics that I write for error messages. Nope, the ideal software application is completely self-documenting: 100% UI text, 0% KorbyHelper. And the foundation of self-documenting software is intuitive user interface text.
Late last night, after a long day of TechEd that commenced with the keynote announcement of VSTS, I bumped into Kevin Kelly and Brian White, who are the VSTS program managers for work item tracking. Kevin, a seasoned Microsoft veteran, and Brian, a recent recruit from Rational, had just returned from dinner with a gaggle of important customers and were obviously ready for a little R&R. I joined them in the bar for a glass of lime and gin-flavored ice water and mercilessly peppered them with SCM terminology questions (my name is Korby and I am a terminology junkie)…
As the Team Foundation team continues to build, refine, and document VSTS I plan to blog often about these and other terminology issues and questions and invite you to provide your input.

Topics Covered:
Magnetic Resonance in Space/Rocket Science, NMR in Pharmaceutical Development, NMR in Pharmaceutical Discovery, Low-field/benchtop, Food NMR, Polymers, Petrochemical/Refinery, Plant Production Problem Solving, qNMR, Solids
Mission Statement.
Practical Applications of NMR in Industry Conference (PANIC) was initiated to provide an interactive forum for discussion of the latest developments in the use of NMR for practical applications to real problems faced by scientists in industry and research institutions. The emphasis is the practicality of the solution and "getting the job done". The forum provides a venue for presentation of practical applications, and workshops for discussion of real-world experiences relevant to current product development needs with an opportunity to share case studies to drive further development of NMR technology. Solution-state, solid-state, time-domain, and zero-field applications are all equally welcome at PANIC. The forum also provides a venue for industrial, regulatory, government, and academic scientists to meet, network, and participate in exchanges of knowledge for mutual education in and advancement of the use of NMR techniques.
Dear Colleague,
In February 2015 more than 200 attendees convened in La Jolla, CA for the 3rd annual Practical Applications of NMR in Industry Conference (PANIC). The latest developments in the use of NMR for practical applications in industry were presented to a highly diverse audience, including experts from regulatory, industrial, government, and academic arenas.
The four day event provided insight into topics such as Solids/Polymers, Complex Mixtures, Food & Agriculture, Petrochemical/Refinery, Benchtop NMR, Unique Applications, qNMR/Quantification, Forensics and more. PANIC 2015 featured a new one-day Workshop on the Validation of NMR experiments. A direct outcome of this workshop was the creation of a Validation Working Group formed by some participants to coordinate efforts in this area.
Attendees had the opportunity to network with peers and industry leaders during networking receptions and breaks, engage in fruitful discussions during the poster sessions, and interact with sponsors and exhibitors.
PANIC 2016 will take place in Houston, TX with Chair Edward Zartler and Co-Chair Gonzalo Hernandez. Session topics will include NMR in Pharmaceutical Discovery and Development, Benchtop NMR, Food NMR, Polymers, Petrochemical/Refinery, qNMR, Solids, Plant Production Problem Solving and Magnetic Resonance in Space/Rocket Science. On behalf of the PANIC Organizing Committee, we invite you to submit a speaker proposal and contribute to this very engaging program!
We look forward to seeing you in Houston for PANIC 2016!
Best regards,
Gonzalo Hernandez, Chair PANIC 2016

Product Information:
This oval shaped version of the classic bean bag chair is the Cadillac of modern foam filled chair. Relax Sacks are often touted by fans as, ''the most comfortable chair in the world''. They are a perfect way to create a relaxed, informal setting or liven up your home theater, gaming room or playroom. Giant foam sofa sacks are perfect for watching TV, gaming, listening to music or just relaxing. Relax Sacks are comprised of only the finest materials available, far exceeding those of other brands. Double top stitched seams on both inner liner and outer covers securely bond the highest grade fabric to ensure no failures occur for years to come. Unlike the classic bean bags of the 70's which were filled with styrofoam beads that quickly broke down and lost their shape, our polyurethane foam is made in the USA, trimmed in US furniture factories, and finally shredded and stuffed in our facility located in the heartland of America. Over a dozen years of research and fine tuning have combined to create a perfect marriage between such factors as: size, density, and amount of shredded foam, breathability, durability, and comfort of fabric, size, brand, and safety of zippers. Consider carefully all factors when purchasing this piece of furniture and remember not all giant foam bag chairs are created equal. Restoring the puffiness of your chair is easy, simply roll it around on the floor until you have sufficiently fluffed the life back. We strongly suggest you frequently fluff your chair to maintain the integrity and soft feel of the foam.

This is a great bed for my room! It was a challenge to fill it without getting a little foam everywhere, but the finish results were amazing. It's big enough to fit 4 full adults on it and I'm 5"8 and my feet have plenty of room to stretch.

Mark A. Smith is professor of Political Science and an adjunct professor of Comparative Religion and Communication at the University of Washington. His research focuses on economic and religious groups, ideas, and influences in American politics. In his new book, Secular Faith: How Culture Has Trumped Religion in American Politics, Dr. Smith argues that religion is not nearly the unchanging conservative influence in American politics that we have come to think it is and is best understood as responding to changing political and cultural values rather than shaping them.
Closed Door Meetings in Vatican City to Address Crucial Issues Facing the Catholic Church
Welcome to the Morning Buzz, PRRI's morning dose of religion-related news with a shot of data – because what doesn't liven up a morning round-up like some public opinion numbers?
U–S–A! U–S–A! With a final score of 5-2 over the Czech Republic, the U.S. Men's Hockey team won the quarterfinal round at the 2014 Olympic Winter Games. The team now advances to the semifinals, which will be played against our neighbors to the north, Canada, on Friday, February 21.
Reuters details the release of a Congressional Budget Office report that shows raising the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour will result in the loss of 500,000 jobs by the end of 2016. However, raising the minimum wage– in three annual steps – would also bring 900,000 Americans above the poverty threshold. Seventy-one percent of Americans say they favor increasing the minimum wage from $7.25 to $10 per hour while only 24 percent oppose raising the minimum wage.
In what many are saying is the most critical week of the first year of his papacy, Pope Francis has convened nearly two hundred cardinals in Vatican City to discuss reforming the Catholic Church. Tomorrow starts a round of closed-door meetings to discuss critical issues facing the church including contraception, cohabitation, same-sex marriage and whether divorced and remarried Catholics can receive Communion. More than 8-in-10 (81%) Catholics believe using artificial birth control methods is morally acceptable, while 14% say it is morally wrong.
For the first time since the war in Afghanistan began, more Americans oppose the war than support it, according to a newly released Gallup poll. The gap is slight – 49 percent of Americans say the war in Afghanistan was not for America to fight while 48 percent believe chasing terrorist cells in the country was the right thing to do – and unlike the Vietnam War and the War on Iraq, it took a much longer time for Americans to turn against the war in Afghanistan.
The Conservative Political Action Conference, an annual gathering of conservative political activists, will have a new addition this year: GOProud, the Republican gay-rights group. The group had previously been banned after socially conservative groups, such as the Family Research Council, objected to their involvement in the conference. Forty percent of self-identified conservatives feel negatively toward gay and lesbian people, 14% have a neutral opinion and 26% feel positively toward them.

Today, i watched students in my dojo (training facility) test for different purple and brown belt Kyus (rank or level). My sensei (karate teacher or head teacher) said that i could retest for second brown or 2nd Kyu, since the kata (form or series of moments) for 2nd Kyu is "Jion" (the name of a big temple). In my former dojo, "Jion" was a black belt kata (a form you learn once you are a black belt). Back in the day, i was 1st Kyu (next rank is black belt), but since i'm coming back after an 8 year hiatus, i felt that 2nd Kyu is a great place to jump back into the action. Even if i fail, i still get to wear my brown belt =)
Here are some tips for perparing for a rank test:
hope these tips help. Let me know if you have any.

Kyrie Irving admits he hasn't been a leader, looks to learn from veterans
Offseason: Free Agency | Latest from Ken Berger | Rumors
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving spoke with RealGM.com at Team USA practice Monday and admitted that he's struggled with leadership in the past, which is why he's grateful so many veterans are joining the team along with LeBron James.
"I haven't been a leader – not at all," Irving told RealGM.
"Everybody asks me if this is my year to be a leader … I haven't been so far though, not at all," Irving said. "I've just been a kid trying to figure it out. There's no perfect way to be a leader, and coming in as a 19-year-old kid and having everything bearing on your shoulders, there are a lot of ups and downs. Now it's about being the best every single day and not being afraid.
"I'm more than excited with our new veterans. I'm really excited just from the standpoint of how the locker room is going to go and how to really be a professional. I'm not saying that the veterans that we had weren't professionals themselves, but we didn't have enough. Given the right and wrong things to do in the league, I've had to learn on my own and that's what some of us been doing.
"Now, we have guys who've been in the league for years, guys who've won championships and have had to give a piece of their game for the greater good of the team. It's something I admire and something I'm going to learn from."
via Kyrie Irvings Transformation Starts With Admission He Needs LeBron Cavs New Vets - RealGM.
Iriving has come under fire in past years for his approach. His attitude was a question mark last season, there were rumblings of a conflict with Dion Waiters, and he bailed on Fan Appreciaion Night a year ago.
But now, honestly, he doesn't have to worry about that. He's got guys like James, Mike Miller, and Shawn Marion. When James went to Miami, he had leadership issues himself that he worked through by learning from Miller and Ray Allen (who is also rumored to be interested in joining the Cavaliers). Irving can learn in much the same way, and that will help him later on.
Now, that's assuming he has that kind of capacity. Some players simply aren't leaders, just like in any field. But Irving's talent and ability to run an offense should translate well. If the Cavs are as successful as it seems they will be, he's about to learn a lot about what it takes to be great in the league, both in terms of play, conditioning, and leadership.

Article: Progressive dilation of the diameter of the aortic root in adults with a bicuspid aortic valve[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To determine the rate of progression of dilation of the aortic root in adults with a bicuspid aortic valve. We reviewed retrospectively the transthoracic echocardiograms of 50 adults with a bicuspid aortic valve. Each patient had had at least two examinations made 12 months apart. Measurements were taken at four levels: at the basal attachment of the leaflets of the valve within the left ventricular outflow tract, at the widest point of the sinuses of Valsalva, at the sinutubular junction, and in the ascending aorta 1 cm beyond the sinutubular junction. Progressive dilation occurred at all levels, ranging from 0.3 mm/yr at the basal attachment within the left ventricular outflow tract to 1.0 mm/yr, 1 cm beyond sinutubular junction. These rates of dilation were greater than the reported rate of 0.8 mm per decade in the normal population. The rate of dilation found in the ascending aorta 1 cm beyond the sinutubular junction was significantly greater than at the other sites (p = 0.005). The 21 patients with baseline measurements greater than 34 mm had a significantly higher rate of progression (p = 0.007). Sex, age, and the degree of valvar obstruction or regurgitation did not significantly influence the rate of progression of dilation. There is a significantly higher rate of dilation of the aortic root in adults with a bicuspid aortic valve when compared to the normal population. Periodic evaluation of the ascending aorta is essential in these patients, even after replacement of the aortic valve. Other imaging modalities should be considered if the region beyond the sinutubular junction is not well visualized by transthoracic echocardiography.
Article: Improvement in exercise capacity in asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic adults after atrial septal defect percutaneous closure[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Controversy exists as to whether secundum atrial septal defects (ASDs) in asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic New York Heart Association (NYHA) class I or II adult patients should be closed. Thirty-seven patients (24 females; mean age 49.4 years, range 19 to 76) with a mean pulmonary to systemic flow ratio (Qp:Qs) of 2.1 (1.2 to 3.4) had a maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) determination and echocardiographic measurement of right ventricular dimensions before and 6 months after elective percutaneous closure of ASD. At baseline, mean VO2max was 23.5+/-6.4 mL/kg per minute and was higher in the 15 NYHA I patients than in the 22 NYHA II patients (27+/-6.9 versus 20.8+/-4.6 mL/kg per minute; P=0.0015). VO2max increased significantly at 6 months (23.5+/-6.4 to 26.9+/-6.9 mL/kg per minute; P<0.0001). Improvement was as marked in NYHA I (+22%; P<0.0001) as in NYHA II patients (+12%; P<0.0001), in patients with Qp:Qs 1.2 to 2.0 (+16%; P<0.0001) as in those with Qp:Qs >2 (+12%; P<0.0001), and in patients > or =40 years of age (+14%; P<0.0001) as in those <40 years of age (+16%; P<0.0001). Compared with 15 of 37 patients before closure, 35 of 37 patients were in NYHA I at 6 months. Right ventricular dimensions decreased significantly (P<0.0001). Adult ASD patients significantly increase their functional capacity after percutaneous defect closure. This is observed even in patients classified as asymptomatic, in those with lesser shunts, and in older patients. These findings suggest that ASD closure in an adult population should be considered even in the absence of symptoms.

Pocket Van De Graaff generator
by mread, published
Thing Info
A small Van De Graff generator, probably best not used in your pockets, and probably best not to run it near delicate electrical equipment.
####### Version 4 #######
May 2013
This version uses ABS conductive filament from Rainbot3D.com, which greatly simplifies the top and bottom electrostatic combs.
The combs are completely printed, so no messing about bending and shaping wires. This also makes the parts much more reproducible and consistent.
The plastic has a resistivity of about 100 Ohm-cm. As printed, with 10% infill, I was measuring around 150 Kohms for each comb. As we are dealing with very small currents this is acceptable.
The bottom comb is in two parts, which acts as a clamp for the earth wire.
The top comb has a "shelf" such that the tin foil wrapped sphere rests on it to provide the electrical contact.
I had hoped to print the sphere with the conductive filament but I think the resistivity was too high.
The only wire needed now is the earth wire, I usually hold this while shocking myself.
Holder for battery pack added to the base.
All parts printed on my Rep2 in PLA, except the combs which were printed on my thing-o-matic mk6.
1 Rubber band, I got a pack of 89mm long by 12.7 mm wide from Staples.
1 32 mm fuse, don't worry about the rating, it's just to form a glass rotor.
1 PTFE tape, to wrap around the printed rotor that fits on the motor spindle.
1 3V Motor, 25 mm diameter body by 30 mm body length. I got mine from Maplin, if you need to adjust for a different motor size I have included the 123D design files.
2 M3 x 19 screws
2 M3 bolts.
Aluminium foil to wrap the bowl in.
Wire, not sure what gauge it is but it's about 2mm in diameter.
The materials for the belt pulleys were taken from the Triboelectric effect table
The top pulley is glass, using a 32 mm fuse, and the bottom rotor is PTFE tape, over a printed rotor with a bulge in it to make the rubber band self centre.
Print out one each of Base, Bowl, Clamp and Rotor. The rotor should press fit onto the motor shaft.
Wrap the rotor with the PTFE tape several times.
Bolt the motor into the base using the clamp and the screws and nuts.
Strip the ends of the wire, you need one long piece ( ~ 1m) and one piece about 20 cm.
The 20 cm wire should be stripped of insulation about 5mm one end and 7-8 cm the other end, the 5 mm end goes through the guide in the top of the base ( see photograph), and the ends bent down to form the electrostatic comb. The long stripped end is to make contact with the bowl.
The 1 m length should be stripped of insulation for about 5 mm and then pushed through the guide in the base to form the bottom electrostatic comb. Note that the combs should not touch the rubber, they should be 2-3 mm away from the rubber surface.
The other end of the 1 m cable goes to ground, I have mine wrapped around bare metal on a central heating radiator.
Wrap the Bowl in aluminium foil and push it inside the bowl so it can make contact with the short wire. Smooth the foil as much as possible over the bowl, sharp edges will cause charge leakage.
Fire up the motor and enjoy the sparks to your fingers.
I would welcome any suggestions to improving this thing.

Lovely. Hey, is it possible for you to scale it up to something like ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNEY3Yv9kC8http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... ? By the way, put your video link in the description, it's cool.
Version 2 files added. This improves the top electrostatic comb.
New parts are Base_V2.stl and Top_Comb_Clamp.stl.
The top connection wire is stripped back a few inches, It greatly helps assembly if you wrap it in kapton tape ( or whatever you have) and the clamp holds it in place. It can them be cut straight and folded down. I hope the photographs will make it clear.
HAHAHAH! an Arduino with a little speaker is missing from the design, to play some synthetized evil laughs when sparks are detected. Can you post a video?
I hope this works, I have n't loaded anything to youtube before.
I know what you mean...
When I just had a PC in my spare bedroom it was the office.
When I had a MakerBot in the spare bedroom it was the workshop...
Now I have a laboratory... I`m turning into Dr Evil.
how big of sparks have you gotten with this? any hairs standing up on your head?
If I get the combs set up right about 1 cm long sparks, at a rate of about 1 per second.
Any hairs standing on my head ? Those days are long gone ! I have n't had long hair for many years.
I doubt the small generator could supply enough charge to take a large body to the potential required to get my hair lifting. Might be able to lift a few strands attached to the bowl though.
This is just a first attempt and I`m happy just to get sparks. I reckon the charge bowl needs redesigned, the combs need more accurate and consistent placement, and then I'll be in a position to start looking at different materials, such as a belt cut from a thin latex glove. different rollers etc.
What is the purpose of the PTFE tape over the drive pulley? I would think the dielectric properties of ABS or PLA would make this unnecessary. But this is a great thing! Plan to build one ASAP.
Glass and Teflon are the furthest apart materials on the Tribolectric scale that I had to hand.
The next iteration will improve on the electrostatic comb positioning as it is very sensitive to this. The strands should be as close to the rubber as possible without actually touching.
Glass and Teflon were the furthest apart materials on the Triboelectric scale that I had to hand.
The next iteration will have a better way of locating and aligning the electrostatic combs, it is very sensitive to the separation between the strands and the rubber.

FOX: 'The Mindy Project' Still A "Toss Up" For Renewal Or Cancellation
Click this link for the latest FOX renewal / cancellation information: [rssinpage rssfeed='http://feeds.feedburner.com/TvbythenumbersCancel/renewFOXShows' rssitems='1′ rssformat='Y']
Our Renew / Cancel Index predicts the network's decision on renewal or cancellation for scripted broadcast primetime shows by the end of the 2012-13 season in May, 2013. (includes results from December 31, 2012- January 13, 2013):

Last week's 1.5 rating in The Mindy Project's 2013 start might not seem like much (and it isn't on an absolute basis), but it was 84% of the woeful Fox average scripted rating for the week, keeping the show shakily in the "toss up" range between renewal and cancellation. We may well get a more definitive read on its prospect from ratings in the rest of the season. Stay tuned.
Better to Follow The Bear, Than Be Chased By Him. This season you can follow the Cancellation Bear on Twitter via @TheCancelBear. The Cancellation Bear will retweet all the Renew/Cancel Index post titles and links as well as engage in a little more back and forth banter than we do on our standard @TVbytheNumbers Twitter feed.
*shows no longer on the air have their Renew/Cancel Index "frozen" at the point they left the schedule.
From now through the end of the broadcast season in May, the Renew/Cancel Index values will only be calculated using new episodes airing during 2013. However, until new episodes of a show air in 2013, I will keep the "old" Fall predictions in the table.
Want to know what the Fox Renew/Cancel Index table looked like at the end of the Fall season? Click here.

- :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: – certain to be renewed by May, 2013
The Renew/Cancel Index is the ratio of a scripted show's new episode adults 18-49 ratings relative to the new episode ratings of the other scripted shows on its own network. It's calculated by dividing a show's new episode Live+Same Day adults 18-49 average rating by the Live+Same Day new episode average of all the new scripted show episodes on the show's own network. The network's average ratings in the calculation are not time weighted (ex. hour long shows are not weighted twice what 30 minute shows are).
(F) -Fridays: Shows airing on Fridays were renewed with significantly lower than average Indexes.
