Henderson is proud to introduce the Aqua Lock wetsuit system. This revolutionary wetsuit system design is the first of its kind to offer inter locking wetsuit wrist, ankles and neck openings which are designed specifically to mate with interlocking Aqua Lock hoods, boots and gloves to form a nearly impenetrable seal which minimizes cold water entry into the Aqua Lock ensemble.
The Aqua Lock System begins with the core jumpsuit. One of the most notable visual features on the suit is the liquid tape Aqua Lock seams. Every seam on the suits is first double glued and blind stitched inside and out. Then the outer seam is coated with a special waterproof Aqua Lock liquid tape barrier which seals the seam from water entry and also helps protect the stitching from damage and unraveling.
The 5mm and 7mm core jumpsuits offer special Aqua Lock wrist and ankle cuffs which have been designed to mate with specially designed Aqua Lock boots, gloves and hood. The Aqua Lock cuffs feature a soft and ultra stretchy skin neoprene inner lining which mates to specially designed silicone seals inside the boots and gloves. 3mm Suits also mate with Aqua Lock accessories but the double locking wrist and ankles have been removed since they are not required in warmer water temps where 3mm suits are commonly utilized.
The interior of all the core jumpsuits are lined with a Golden micro fleece lining which dries quickly and feels luxurious against the skin. The Aqua Lock suit exterior features Henderson's renowned Aquasilk laminate which is also utilized in Henderson's flagship H2 wetsuit series. Rear zipper entry with zipper tab leash for easy self donning assures easy use while the PK G-lock water resistant zipper eliminates unpleasant cold water exchange in the spine and lumbar area. Soft, flexible and extremely durable Duratex knee pads and an adjustable collar complete the package. Henderson's new Aqua Lock wetsuit system will certainly be a first choice by Divers who demand warmth, performance and comfort on all their dive adventures. Suit is available in multiple sizes. The suit rubber utilizes limestone based polychloroprene reducing the dependency on oil and oil derived chemicals for a more environmentally friendly manufacturing process. Suit is available in multiple sizes, and is covered by head to toe 12 month limited warranty with a 120 month limited warranty on the zipper.
The Henderson 7mm Men's Aqua Lock Jumpsuit is commonly used for Colder Water, Diving and more. The Henderson 7mm Men's Aqua Lock Jumpsuit is most used by customers who consider themselves to be a Casual user, Professional among others. The Henderson 7mm Men's Aqua Lock Jumpsuit is popular because customers like the following qualities of the Henderson 7mm Men's Aqua Lock Jumpsuit: Breathable, Comfortable, Easy To Put On And Off, Warm.

FOUNTAIN VALLEY – Frank Robinson is the only Major League Baseball player to be named MVP in both the American and National leagues. He was also the first African American to be hired to manage a major league team.
The Hall of Famer's playing career was long over before anyone on the current Los Amigos High School baseball team was born, but when the players got the opportunity to meet Robinson on Wednesday, they understood the magnitude of the moment.
"I just shook hands with a legend," said junior right-fielder Miguel Cuevas. "It feels awesome."
A month earlier, Robinson had arranged for Major League Baseball to present a $4,000 check to the Los Amigos baseball program after thieves broke into the team's on-campus storage locker and took all the team's equipment.
Robinson is vice president of baseball development for MLB. After reading media accounts of the theft at Los Amigos, he decided to get involved.
"As soon as I saw the story, I was on the phone," Robinson said.
At the time, Robinson couldn't come to the school himself, so he sent his wife, Barbara, and daughter, Nichelle, to present the check. But he promised head baseball coach Art Maltby he would visit at the first opportunity he had.
On Wednesday, Robinson, accompanied by his wife and daughter, came to the school to meet with Maltby and school administrators. On the baseball field, with balloons and posters thanking him, Robinson, 77, spent 45 minutes talking baseball, recounting what it was like growing up in the South and offering a little motivational advice to the players.
"I always wanted to be a baseball player and I knew I could always find a game, whether it was one on one, two on two or nine on nine," Robinson said. "And when it got dark, we'd go inside and play baseball."
Robinson also had some advice for the players: "Don't ever expect anything to be given to you," he said. "If you expect everything to be given to you, you won't appreciate it when it is given to you."
Maltby felt Robinson's visit would have a big impact on his players.
"It's all about the kids," Maltby said. "These kids have every opportunity in life as long as they don't take two steps backward. They have every opportunity to succeed."
Robinson wrapped up the visit by asking his wife if he could adopt the entire team, generating a standing ovation from the players. He then posed for dozens of photos with coaches, players and school staff.
"For me, this is very touching," Maltby said.

Deputies say a man had a marijuana grow operation at his reptile business, and was using UV lights to grow his profits.
Onslow County deputies began the investigation after they got a tip of a possible grow operation at Robert MacCargar's home or business. The man lives in Onslow County, but his business is in nearby Carteret County.
The grow operation was found at the man's business, Reptile UV Labs on Highway 24 in Cedar Point. Inside detectives found 16 pot plants, ranging from 2-1/2 to 4 feet tall. They say the hydroponic system was capable of yielding approximately 16 pounds of pot.
Deputies say MacCargar sold equipment for reptiles at the business, including ultraviolet lights that are supposed to keep them warm. But they say he was using the UV lights to help his pot growing operation instead.
He's been charged with felony manufacturing marijuana, and felony maintaining a dwelling and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Eric Bélot
Head of Statistical Analysis of Product Quality Data for EMEA
Provide service, maintenance before a breakdown
Volvo's QRAFT analytical solution anticipates its customers' needs
Downtime is a killer for freight and logistics companies, so Volvo has developed an analytical solution to anticipate breakdowns and other incidents and speed up repairs when necessary. Its goal? To provide service and maintenance before a breakdown.
Transportation is one of the world's largest industries. By 2016, the industry is expected to generate more than US$3.8 trillion in revenue – a growth of more than 37 percent year-over-year growth for the previous five years. That presents a lot of opportunities – and stiff competition – for truck manufacturers and fleet maintenance providers.
Volvo has found that analytics gives them an edge.
In cases of proactive prevention actions, QRAFT allows us to quickly target the vehicles concerned. It optimizes the cost for us and for our customers.
Eric Bélot
From trucks to 'transport solutions'
After leaving the passenger car market in 2000, Volvo Group not only refocused its offerings, it redesigned its business model and its relationship with customers. "What we sell are not trucks, but rather transport solutions to enable our customers to offer the best logistical services to their end customers," explained Eric Bélot, Head of Statistical Analysis of Product Quality Data for the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region.
Volvo is striving for 100 percent availability of its vehicles. It plans to provide superior reliability of the trucks and customized maintenance solutions.
In 2012, Volvo launched QRAFT (Quality Report and Follow-Up Tool), a tool for monitoring its quality and product warranties. Based on SAS®, the tool analyzes more than 100 parameters to predict the wear on a component, identify abnormal events and speed up the diagnostics of incidents affecting a vehicle.
The information is transmitted from a network of warranty repairers and is stored in a shared data warehouse. With SAS® Warranty Analysis, it's then possible to run in-depth analyses to understand the root cause of an incident and help the engineers make decisions about how to resolve it and prevent it from recurring in the future.
"The whole approach involves anticipating events and being proactive with our customers," said Bélot. The information is also shared with the research department to ensure continuous improvement in Volvo's products and services.
A project with a global scale
The global implementation of QRAFT took a huge effort by combined information systems and business teams, with the support of SAS consultants in Sweden, France, the United States and Japan.
"The first success of QRAFT was to unify three information systems and three warranty processes by pooling the maximum number of variables," noted Bélot. "Today, we have a unified solution for our truck and bus operations, and we will soon be sharing this information with our construction machinery division, with which we share certain engines."
Nearly 500 people – across functions, divisions and business units – conduct analyses with SAS Warranty Analysis. The tool has been so successful that less than one year after its launch, the server size needed to be increased.
Midterm development, embedded analytics in vehicles
The first months of the tool's use have already demonstrated its value in diagnosis. "With the widespread use of electronic boxes, we soon be able to track dozens of indicators while the truck is operating and define alert thresholds to allow us to act proactively – before an incident happens," said Bélot.
And Volvo's customers will benefit from reduced cost and downtime related to regular maintenance. Traditionally, maintenance decisions were based on a predetermined schedule. Today's approach? Maintenance is based on evidence gleaned from the data. If brake pads or other components are in better condition than expected, why bring a truck into the garage?
"With embedded technologies, we can operate like a Formula 1 team that analyzes every parameter during the race to bring a car into the pits at the best possible time," he said.
Future developments
QRAFT will soon be enhanced with new information taken directly from the embedded computers in the latest Volvo and Renault trucks. "In case of an incident, we can take account of all the contextual factors: oil, water, vehicle load and external temperature. We don't analyze an incident in Russia at minus 20 C and another incident in Spain at 40 C in the same way," Bélot said.
The addition of other SAS solutions is also on the agenda, especially in the field of data visualization, for which a conclusive test has been conducted in Sweden. "Analytics can shed light on events where the human eye would not necessarily see a link. It's an analysis support tool that helps us prioritize the actions we should take," concluded Bélot.
- Sharing product and warranty information between the three brands: Volvo, Renault and Mack.
- Anticipating breakdowns and incidents as far upstream as possible, to ensure the maximum availability of the customers' fleets.
- SAS® Enterprise Guide®
- SAS® Warranty Analysis
- Anticipation of potential incidents (and appropriate responses).
- Avoidance of unplanned customer downtime.
- A comprehensive analysis of all customer events.
- Remote diagnostics.
- Time savings with automated reporting.
About Volvo Group
The Volvo Group is a world leader in the transport and construction vehicles market. Together with Volvo Trucks, Renault Trucks, Mack (USA) and UD (Asia/Pacific), the group manufactures more than 200,000 units per year. Trucks account for 70 percent of its activity.

At first glance, the prospects for employment in Maine's high-tech industry look promising. There are hundreds of positions available and the demand for skilled workers is increasing each year. But a new technology advocacy coalition says the state needs to do a lot more to prepare its workforce for the jobs of the future. A.J. Higgins has more.
Maine state Sens. Roger Katz, left, and Seth Goodall, discuss ways to improve Maine's workforce.
The group "Educate Maine" cites federal labor analysts who say there are more than 800 computer and technology jobs going unfilled in the state. The bad news, says Educate Maine's Tanna Clews, is that by 2018, the state still won't have enough workers to fill those positions.
"The number of skilled graduates are decreasing and a third of these jobs are being taken offshore in Maine," Clews says.
Clews is part of a coalition of state business leaders that has launched Project Login in an effort to double the number of University of Maine System graduates specializing in computer science and information technology. She told members of the Legislature's Committee on Maine's Workforce and Economic Future that partnering with the state's universities, businesses and government will allow Project Login to maintain a comprehensive Web site with information and resources for those interested in computer and technology careers.
In addition to online help, the initiative has compiled a list of paid and unpaid internships for those pursuing high-tech jobs, and provides updates through social media on developments in advanced technologies. Clews says that while the effort is aimed at university students, she says it has to start earlier.
"We want to build the pipeline in a sustainable manner," Clews says. "We can't just focus on the freshman class and these degree programs this year, which we know that's really the class we're going to be looking at in 2017. We need 142 of them to graduate. But we need to be filling the pipeline. We need to be working with middle school and high school counselors and teachers, and most importantly informing and exciting students and high schools about these exciting careers."
But for Pat Conley, director of management development and training at the Bath Iron Works, the key to finding good help is as much about attitude as it is about skills. Conley says his company uses an apprenticeship program to provide a pool of workers who are, at the least, trainable.
"This apprenticeship class that I just alluded to where we have 58 basically new employees coming from the outside, we have well over 378 applicants for those positions," Conley says. "We interviewed 200 plus. And what we were looking for was not experience; we were looking for energy and attitude. In other words: Sell yourself and we'll teach you the trade. We were somewhat surprised at how many people couldn't do that."
State Sen. Roger Katz, an Augusta Republican, says lawmakers are now trying to decide which job training programs are worthy of state investment. Apprenticeships such as BIW's are appealing, he says, because the money is going to real jobs that are ready to be filled now.
"I was very interested in hearing about our apprenticeship program, and as we look to where we might put our limited resources, it seems to me that's one area that we might be looking to be expanding at this time," Katz says.
Sen. Seth Goodall says he expects the committee to have some preliminary recommendations on improving the state's workforce by the end of the month.

Wrongfully accused, Carter and John Artis were convicted and sentenced to three life terms in prison, where Carter decided to channel his frustration and despair by writing his own story from his cell. Although his autobigraphy, "The Sixteenth Round," did get published, Carter remained behind bars, finding inner peace by withdrawing from the outer world and the national interest which surrounded his case (including impassioned pleas from Bob...

July 4th Trades
Jeff Shaw was a two-time All Star and one of my favorite players growing up.
The right-hander was a brilliant setup man with Cincinnati, positioning Jeff Brantley for 44 saves and the 1996 Rolaids Relief Man Award.
The following season, however, Brantley got injured and Shaw moved into the closer's role. He closed out 42 games and also won the league's saves title.
But less than a year later the Reds traded Shaw on July 4, 1998 to the Dodgers. In return, the Reds acquired left-hander Dennys Reyes and a no-name 22-year-old first baseman.
Shaw went on to save 129 games for the Dodgers in three and a half seasons…Reyes spent four seasons in Cincinnati going 9-10.
The young first baseman, who played just 26 games for the Reds, was later dealt to the White Sox for a budding center fielder named Mike Cameron.
Cameron shined with the Reds in 1999 and became the centerpiece in the February 2000 trade that brought Ken Griffey Jr. to Cincy from Seattle.
As for that no-name first baseman…he turned into a four-time All Star who led the White Sox to its first World Series title in 88 years.
His name, Paul Konerko.

By Michael Forster, Chairman/Chief Executive Officer CommerceQuest Inc.
Abstract: Given the competitive nature of corporate business, companies are constantly seeking the most effective ways to improve productivity and maximize monetary gain. Consequently, companies are demanding more control over their business processes. Serving as a bridge that joins technology with business, business process management technologies aid streamlined workforce efforts, reduced task times, less process variation, and more predictable results. This, in turn, makes the business more robust and profitable.
Business Process Management or BPM, is the practice of improving the efficiency and effectiveness of any organization by automating the organization's business processes. BPM used to be also know as Business Process Reengineering (BPR).
Many companies have business processes that are unique to its business model. Since these processes tend to evolve over time as the business reacts to market conditions, the BPM solution you choose must be easily adaptable to the new conditions and requirements and continue to be a perfect fit for the company.

Members of Parliament from CCM and Chadema yesterday differed to the extent of shouting at each other over the decision by the Parliamentary Steering Committee to endorse only three names, instead of six for House chairpersons' election.
National Assembly speaker Anne Makinda was forced to intervene after legislators from the two sides exchanged bitter words.
All started when the speaker informed parliamentarians about House chairperson's election and introduced names of three MPs – Jenista Mhagama (Peramiho), George Simbachawene (Kibakwe) and Sylvester Mabumba (Dole – all from the ruling party, as nominees for the chairperson posts.
Special Seats MP Raya Ibrahim Khamis (Chadema) rose to query the reason behind bringing to the House for voting only three names, while parliamentary standing orders allowed nomination of up to six MPs.
"Why present only three names, instead of six, as stipulated in the parliamentary standing order No. 11 (a) (b) (c)?" she queried. Clarifying, Makinda said the names were endorsed by the Steering Committee, which she chaired.
According to her, members of the committee are drawn from chairpersons of various parliamentary standing committees, who she said had endorsed the three names for legislators' endorsement.
Makinda further clarified that according to the House standing orders only chairpersons and vice-chairpersons of parliamentary standing committees qualify for the post of Parliament chairperson.
"Other people (chairpersons and their vices) were not interested to contest for the posts…they were there, but they did not fill in the nomination forms. That's why we approved these three names. I have presented only these because there were no other candidates," she explained.
Vividly dissatisfied, Nyamagana legislator Ezekiel Wenje (Chadema) rose to angrily criticise the Steering Committee's decision to endorse only three names, despite speaker's clarification, branding the committee meeting that sat to endorse the names as "a dark market."
Makinda was forced to rise again to reiterate her earlier statement, reminding MPs that the decision had been endorsed by all sides – the government, leaders of opposition and their deputies.
Kigoma Urban MP Peter Serukamba (CCM) chipped in, demanding that Wenje withdraw his statement that the parliamentary committee that endorsed the three names was "dark market."
Serukamba was supported by other ruling party MPs, who started shouting at Wenje: "Withdraw your statements…withdraw the words…get out of the House…Honourable Speaker kick him out!"
Makinda's efforts to cool down the MPs did not bear fruit, as a result the House turned witnessed a spell of chaos where lawmakers screamed and shouted at each other.
"Please, I want all Honourable MPs to keep quiet…you are doing a wrong thing…everybody is witnessing what you are doing. The whole country is watching you," she appealed.
In the course of clarifying parliamentary rules, Attorney General Frederick Werema intervened and asked the Nyamagana MP to withdraw his statement.
Kigoma-north legislator and deputy leader of opposition Kabwe Zitto (Chadema) stood up, and said: "It was true that the three names were endorsed by the Parliamentary Steering Committee, but forms were distributed to other candidates who were interested to contest…other candidates did not show up, because they did not receive forms."
Under mounting pressure, Wenje rose again and said: "I will call it the white market."
However, State Minister in the Prime Minister's Office Wiliam Lukuvi rose to move a motion for temporarily putting aside parliamentary standing order No 11 (a), (b) and (c) so that the election could proceed.
In the end, the three names were unanimously approved for the post of House chairpersons.

The Chiliad Challenge
this wiki
The Chiliad Challenge is a side mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The mission is started by entering a parked Mountain Bike on top of Mount Chiliad between 7:00 and 18:00 and having a cycling skill above 40%. The goal of the mission is to be the first to reach the base of the mountain while racing with other mountain bikers down the mountain. There are three courses that need to be completed for 100% completion. All three courses share the same finish zone and the final sector.
Whereas in any other vehicle race wherein one can shoot at other contestants and get away with it, in this muscle-based race, if the player attempts to shoot opponents, not only will the player fail the mission, a one wanted star will also be obtained. Typically though, trying the race again at the top of the mountain will help lose the cops. The player can, however, get off and use the sniper rifle (no other weapon can be used) to eliminate them without penalty.
- Scotch Bonnet Yellow Route: (Reward: $500) This route lays mostly in the southwestern face of the mountain; it is the shortest way down to Angel Pine in distance and time but it is also the steepest, and corners are very closed (almost 180º most of them) and tricky due to the reduced grip of the dirt track and the descending factor. A careful braking and cornering is the key, and little sprinting is used. There are plenty of places where CJ can fall off the road and down the mountain from great heights, but some of them are protected with fences. Once this event is won you gain access to the next event.
- Birdseye Winder: (Reward: $1,000) This run uses the north face route to descend and then turns along the west side and then south down to Angel Pine, it is longer and less steep downhill overall than the previous route but also has some long and leveled straight sectors where CJ can sprint for a while and take the lead easily. However, side protections are even less than in the previous event and there are still some difficult corners. Once this event is won you gain access to the next event.
- Cobra Run: (Reward: $2,000) This race will start mid-way down on the south side and follow a narrow trail which is very tricky in the begginning, with an elevated part; after a jump the second half allows a higher speed as it's wider.
- While in The Chiliad Challenge, get off of your bike and jump off the mountain. Then open a parachute, the game will return you to your bike, but you will still have an open parachute on your back. The parachute then loses all of its function as a parachute. The video can be seen here on YouTube.
- It may be a dirty trick, but in the first two races you can block the entrance into the downhill path with the Camper or Journey. It will still be parked there after these races started and all or most of your competitors will bump into this barricade and fall off their bikes. This will get you in the pole position and makes things much easier.
Easy Win
This involves using the sniper rifle. Let all the racers pass the finish line (but do NOT cross the finish line checkpoint yourself) and dismount from your bike (beware of the timer message telling you to get back on the bike). Now use the sniper to kill all of the racers as you will not get disqualified from the race for using a sniper rifle. Once all have been killled, you will notice that you are in first place. Simply cross the finish line and you have won. This works for all three races. A video showing this can be seen here on Youtube.

Singing the Experiences of a Community
An interview with Muslim hip hop group Native Deen
Native Deen is an inspiring trio of American born Muslims who were brought together by the same passions – hip hop, Islam, and positivity. The group speaks a message that is as important to their Muslim community as it is to people of other religions. It is a message of keeping the faith, loving one another, and standing together in the midst of trials. The music is unique and creative, using only vocals and percussion in accordance with Islamic practice. It strikes a balance between rap, R&B, and tradition that is rarely heard but worth experiencing. Through that their creativity has garnered an international fanbase and become one of the hottest groups in the Muslim community.
With their album The Remedy launching this past July, I had the privilege of talking with Joshua Salaam and Abdul-Malik Ahmad from the group. While third member Naeem Muhammad was unavailable, it was clear that this trio speaks as one very creative whole.
How did Native Deen get started?
Joshua - Our artistry began with an organization called MYNA (Muslim Youth of North America). They had youth camps, and we were some of the entertainers that were coming up in those camps. We met each other, and they ended up putting a product out called MYNA raps. That started in 1992, and grew in popularity over 8 years. In the year 2000 [the three of us] were all living in the same region, and when MYMA raps 5 came out we were the only individual artists who put anything on it. So, since we now had proximity to each other and we were the only three artists on the album, we started to feel like a group. We started performing together and a couple of years later we gave ourselves the name Native Deen.
What does the name mean?
Abdul-Malik - It has a couple of meanings. Deen means "religion or faith," so when we say Native Deen we feel like this faith of ours is something that is native to us. The name also evokes the meaning that we are also native to this country. We grew up here, we were born here, we're indigenous Muslim Americans.

text: API: Three letters that change life, the Universe and even Detroit Business 07 February 12 by Cade Metz Wired.com/Ariel Zambelich Sam Ramji met AT&T chief technology officer John Donovan on a speed date - or at least the tech world equivalent of a speed date.In 2009, some big-name venture capitalists arranged for lightning-fast meetings between AT&T's top brass and the brains behind various Silicon Valley startups, including Ramji's new venture: Apigee, a company that builds and operates APIs. That's tech-world speak for the software that lets things like Facebook, Google and Twitter talk to all those applications on your iPhone.Apigee helps companies connect themselves to as many applications as possible -- and ultimately reinvent the way they do business -- but Ramji wasn't sure he could help AT&T. Or at least, that's what he said. According to Donovan, when Ramji showed up for their speed date, he played hard-to-get. "You guys don't move fast enough to play in our game," he told Donovan.Just a few years ago, that may have been true. But today, it's not. AT&T ended up joining forces with Apigee, building APIs that let outside software developers build phone and tablet applications that do everything from sending text messages across the AT&T network to charging payments straight to a user's monthly AT&T bill. By December of last year, the telecom giant was handling 4.6 billion API calls a month on its network, and Donovan believes that number will reach 10 billion by the end of 2012. "That's the same range," he says, "as the top web companies."There was a time when APIs -- or Application Programming Interfaces -- were just a way of building applications for a desktop operating system like Microsoft Windows. But in the age of the internet, they have the power to plug applications into, well, almost anything. They've already transformed websites like Google and Facebook and Twitter into services that talk to a world of other applications, across PCs as well as mobile phones. But that's small potatoes. They're also breathing new life into old-world operations, including mobile carriers like AT&T and even car makers like General Motors. In January, GM -- another Apigee partner -- said it would offer APIs for OnStar, the communications service it builds into cars."Companies are really changing the way they develop their products and deliver their products," says Ted Shelton, a former software developer and chief strategy officer at Borland Software who is now a managing director at management consultant PwC, where he helps companies build APIs too. "We're seeing [API efforts] in virtually every industry. We've done work in healthcare, in finance, manufacturing, shipping and logistics, automotive. Whether you're a company that serves consumers or other businesses, there is an enormous need to expose both data and business processes in ways that others can make use of it."The aim of these companies isn't just to get Joe Software Developer building new applications for their services. They want to, yes, make more money, and in the end, an API can help do that -- though the path isn't always obvious. Some companies charge developers to use their APIs, creating an immediate source of revenue. But in other cases, APIs are a way of giving things away for free, in the hope that this will expand the use of a service and eventually generate new revenue in other ways. If AT&T improves applications on its network, for instance, more people will use it -- at least in theory. And that means more money."If you're trying to think of all the possible ways you can extend or enhance [a product], it's likely you can invest in only a couple of options," Shelton says, arguing that you should open up your APIs instead - and let everyone else dream up those improvements. "They're going to try all the experiments you thought of, but also all the ones you haven't thought of."John Donovan acknowledges that AT&T hasn't quite figured out all the ways its APIs will drive revenue, but after years of keeping its network closed to outside applications, AT&T believes this change can only improve its position. "The more connections into our network," he tells Wired, "the better."Wall Street Meets Facebook (Again) This month's API poster child is Bloomberg. On 1 February, the financial news and data giant opened up APIs that distribute its market data -- and they're completely free. It's quite a change for Bloomberg, which -- like its chief competitor, Thomson Reuters -- has long charged companies for the use of proprietary machines that serve up this data.There are many forces at work here. Reuters -- the dominant player in this financial data market -- is under investigation by the EU for not opening up its data. Bloomberg's move is a way of gaining an edge on a rival. But the company also says it's hoping to "spur innovation" in the financial services industry. That may sound like spin, but there's all sorts of precedent here. Apigee's Sam Ramji points to Facebook: Mark Zuckerberg and company won the battle with MySpace at least in part because they opened up APIs that allowed outside developers to build application on their social network.Perhaps Bloomberg can do the same, expanding the use of its services by encouraging others to build applications that plug into it. Once you have the users, you can sell other stuff -- like complimentary services or software. Facebook's IPO filing reveals that 12 percent of its revenue comes from Zynga, a company that uses Facebook APIs to build games atop the social network. Some of this dough comes from Zynga ads posted to the site, and the rest comes from Zynga games using Facebook's payments system.And Bloomberg is not alone. In October, NYSE Technologies -- the IT division of NYSE Euronext, the company that operates the New York Stock Exchange and various other exchanges across the globe - open sourced the APIs it uses to distribute market data, hoping to expand the market for its services. The idea is not only to share data for free, but to share the design of the APIs themselves, so that other outfits can built similar interfaces."We want to create a community around open and common standards so that we can drive the cost and friction out of global trading," NYSE Technologies CEO Stanley Young told Wired at the time. "At the moment, it's a very fragmented, very complex, very costly place to do business -- especially if you're a fund manager sitting somewhere in the Midwest and you want to execute trades on 100 exchanges across the world." As more outfits use its APIs, NYSE plans to sell them stuff like virtual infrastructure, where they can run the tools that use its data. According to Ted Shelton, of PwC, this free data idea is finding fertile ground on Wall Street, a place that has always been quick to adopt new technology -- and new ways of thinking about technology. "You're going to see more and more cases where companies that are providers of data -- or of business processes like risk management models or trading systems - open up APIs so that other people, even outside the financial industry, can begin to innovate."

Our nation is still at war. The right to abortion and birth control will be on the ballot in several key states. Global warming is an ever-present reality. And state affirmative action bans are proving to be one of many wedge issues—in the form of ballot initiatives—to expect this time around. It is time for young feminists across the country to Vote As If Our Lives Depend On It!
GOHV is a non-partisan campaign in accordance with the laws and regulations governing 501c3 organizations. This means your FMLA cannot support an individual candidate or party - Democratic, Green, Republican, Independent, etc. In addition, your FMLA must afford everyone the opportunity to register to vote regardless of their party affiliation. While partisan groups are focusing on candidates you will focusing on the importance of voting and what is at stake for young people, especially young women and people of color!
By focusing on at least four issues your group will stand out with students and this will help increase the group's membership. GOHV also offers group members an option for civic involvement that can make a difference but only lasts a few short months. Most state's registration deadlines end in early October!
Here's your chance to get involved!
The Feminist Majority Foundation has compiled an action Tool Kit and this website to help you launch a successful Get Out Her Vote (GOHV) campaign on your campus. With these materials on-hand, your FMLA/affiliate is empowered to get out the feminist vote.

Colorado's gun control debate got going in divisive fashion Monday, when Republicans and Democrats parted ways on a proposal to allow teachers to carry concealed weapons.
A Democratic committee voted on a party-line 3-2 decision to reject a GOP measure to allow schools to decide whether employees could carry concealed weapons.
The vote came hours after more than 100 gun-control supporters rallied on the Capitol steps calling for an assault weapons ban, plus ammunition limits and expanded background checks as ways to prevent gun violence.
Democrats say they're planning to propose those measures, but specific bills haven't yet been introduced.

Isolated is the sixth episode of the television series, TRON: Uprising.
Plot Synopsis
After carrying out a daring theft of a valuable data cube from General Tesler's ship, Beck, as the Renegade, escaped on his light jet over the Sea of Simulation. Paige engaged the Renegade in an aerial dogfight and both his lightjet and her light copter crashed on a remote island of rocky spars. Paige waved for Pavel and the other jet pilots who had followed to pick her up, but Pavel, seeing a chance to be rid of her, turned back toward Argon, leaving her stranded with the Renegade. Unfortunately, the impacting vehicles had destabilized the island, which began, spire by spire, to derez into the sea. Upon discovering their danger, the two foes were forced to call a temporary truce and work together to find a way to survive. As their tenuous alliance continued, Paige reflected on her own personal history and the life she led before becoming a soldier of the Occupation.
In her former life, Paige had been a medic in another city, and helped two refugees named Quorra and Ada when they were attacked in the city's streets. Together with Rox and their friend, two other medics working at their newly opened medical center, Paige treated Ada's injuries, but her new friendship with Quorra was cut short when she discovered that the two were ISOs on the run from the Occupation. Quorra begged the appalled medic not to turn them in, and Paige reluctantly agreed, but when Recognizers began to converge on the medical center, Quorra knocked her out and the two ISOs fled. Paige woke to find the medical center destroyed, and a soldier who introduced himself as Tesler informed her that the ISOs had killed her coworkers before leaving and offered her a place in the ranks of the Occupation. Grieving and vengeful, Paige had asked only one question: how soon she could start.
Paige and the Renegade succeeded in building a rudimentary raft, but further destabilization in the ground beneath them threw Paige into the Sea. Beck, who had spent most of their time together attempting to convince her that he wasn't a bad guy, ran to get the raft, hoping to save her; but she assumed when he ran that he had abandoned her too. Before he could get to her, a light copter piloted by Tesler himself lowered a grapple to pull her out of the water, and he could do nothing but hide until they were gone and use the raft himself to get home.
Back on Tesler's ship, Paige returned the data cube that she had confiscated on the island and spoke bitterly about the Renegade, stating that she had made a mistake in trusting him but knew that Tesler would never betray her. Tesler agreed, pleased with the loyal soldier he had gained, and content never to tell her that he had ordered his own troops to kill her former colleagues before blaming it on the ISOs.
- Filenames for concept art by Alberto Mielgo suggest that Paige's hometown would have been called Gallium City, but the name was never used in the show.

Tampa, Florida -- The Tsarnaev brothers seemed to live two lives.
To everyone else they were a couple of guys growing up in America -- friendly and smart. But online, there may have been recent indications they were becoming far more radicalized.
"We're devastated. We're shocked," said Ruslan Tsarni, their uncle.
Tsarni offered a passionate condemnation Friday outside his Maryland home.
He told reporters his side of the family was beyond shocked.
"Yes we are ashamed. Of course, we are ashamed. They are children of my brother," he said.
The Tsarnaev brothers came to the U.S. about a decade ago from Chechnya as refugees escaping rising tensions with Russia.
Nineteen-year-old Dzokhar is described as very much American. He became a naturalized citizen, ironically, on 9/11 of last year.
He's a wrestler. Intelligent. He got a $2,500 scholarship from the city of Cambridge to pursue higher education, and their father says Dzokhar was a second-year med student.
But in Canada, Maret Tsarnaeva, the brothers' aunt, was less apologetic and more skeptical. A life under Russian rule, clearly leaving her filled with distrust for the government.
"Growing up - within the family, everything was perfect," she said.
So perfect, she finds this all impossible to believe.
She was instrumental in bringing them to the U.S. and was still, seemingly, in a state of denial.
"They could not have done this. Where's the evidence? All you're showing is two guys are walking," she said of the videotape taken the day of the Marathon bombing.
But on a Russian Facebook page, Dzokhar posted pro-Chechen videos.
His "World view" - listed as "Islam". His "Personal priority" - "Career and money".
Older brother, 26-year-old Tamerlan, reportedly posted radical Islamic videos on YouTube.
Before all of this, he too, had enjoyed a privileged upbringing in Cambridge with private schools.
He is a successful boxer.
Tamerlan became a U.S. citizen in 2007.
A website reports he was arrested in 2009 for assaulting a girlfriend.
A documentary quotes him as saying, "I don't have a single American friend. I don't understand them."
Despite the events of the day, Tsarnaeva wanted more proof.
"Three dead people, 170 injured and I don't believe - I just don't believe that our boys would do that," she said.
Tsarni, more accepting of the facts, tried to grasp for motive.
"The only thing I think was behind it, is them being losers," he said. "Not being able to settle themselves."
Through interpreters, both men's parents also expressed disbelief.
But if the two brothers viewed themselves as outsiders, they were the only ones.
Friends, classmates and coaches describe them as smart and very well assimilated to life in the U.S.

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Rodney Hood is transferring from Mississippi State to Duke.
Coach Mike Krzyzewski said Thursday that Hood will sit out this season, will have three seasons of eligibility remaining beginning in 2013-14 and "will have a huge positive impact on our program."
Hood is a left-handed wing who stands 6-foot-8 and averaged 10.3 points, 4.8 rebounds and two assists as one of the Southeastern Conference's top freshmen. Coach Rick Stansbury said in March that he was retiring, and a month later Hood announced his decision to leave the Bulldogs.
He becomes the fourth major college transfer to come to Duke since Krzyzewski took over the program in 1980, and the second in four years. Most recently, senior Seth Curry came to Duke in 2009 after one season at Liberty.

Hi there Mortavius. I also have this module, and I have used roll20.net.
Do you have a computer programme that can rotate an image by c. 10-15 degrees? Paint or Windows Photoviewer won't do it, you need something a bit more complex, for example Photoshop or the GIMP (the latter is free by the way).
Step 1: zoom in on the image in your pdf copy so it takes up most of your computer screen.
Step 2: take a screenshot (for me I just press PrtScrn button)
Step 3: open your computer programme (eg the GIMP) and PASTE your screenshot.
Step 4: Rotate image by -5.8 degrees.
Step 5: Select a rectangular area around the map and crop the image.
Step 6: Add grid co'ords if required.
Step 7: Save file as JPG at c. 85% quality, and import into roll20.net.
Does that help you?

Sampson County deputies are trying to figure out how a father was shot to death and his 13-year-old daughter critically injured in their Sampson County home.
Investigators say the brother of the girl found her wounded Friday night and called 911 as he drove her to the hospital.
Inside the house, deputies say they found the girl's 51-year-old father dead.
Authorities say it appears the man may have killed himself, but they are still investigating what happened and why the teen was shot.
The names of the gunshot victims have not been released.

New Challenges for Operating the Utility Enterprise
Event Start Time (Eastern Time):12:00 PM
City:Virtual Event
Company:Energy Central
Uncertainty haunts the United States utility industry: Natural-gas prices have plummeted, environmental regulations are throttling coal-fired power, and nuclear power's viability is being questioned in the wake of the Japanese nuclear disaster and the termination of the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository.
The Great Recession has frozen retirement plans for many workers, and when the ice breaks, there will be significant turnover in the work force. The Congress, ideologically deadlocked, has not passed a national energy policy, so utility executives are forced to improvise and make strategic decisions with little assurance that they will fit the circumstances that eventually develop. The speakers at this event will share their insights on these conditions and how they are dealing with them in their own companies.
Speakers include:
Jon E. Jipping, COO, ITC Holdings, Novi, Mich.
Anita J. Decker, COO, Bonneville Power Administration, Portland, Ore.
Register today for this free webcast.
Venue:Your Office
Price:$0.00 USD

Heard NOFX - Self Entitled. While listening I thought "Huh, this was a decent song, when will the shitty ones come?". But there weren't any shitty ones. I was very surprised. Not all the songs were great, but they were all at least okay. This was better than Coaster, which had three great songs and a lot of shit. Self Entitled is more darker than most NOFX albums, and I like them that way. That's why Wolves in Wolves' Clothing was one of the better NOFX albums.
Self Entitled is a bit short in regards of NOFX standard, which usually is about 45 mins. If Fat Mike didn't think he had good enough material to have a 45 min long album, I am glad he cut it down to 30. All in all, this will probably be one of the better albums I've heard this year, if only because of the fact that NOFX didn't produce any shit like they usually do.
I can't even make a top 5 of albums I listened this year, but here's my top 4 plus Pennywise's new album:
1-The Offspring - Days Go By (Very solid album made with completely different types of songs. 6-7 awsome songs, three of them that reminded me of the of Ignition/Smash times, which is great, and two of the new era punk rock/alternative type with big intensity and meaning.
2-Serj Tankian - Harakiri (After the snooze of Imperfect harmonies, this album is a complete wake up call. Good melodys, 4 or 5 great songs and the others were also good. On the other hand, Serj experiments too much, and sometimes it goes well, sometimes it doesn't. Meaningfull lyrics, as always.)
3-NOFX - Self Entitled (Prefer the 00's NOFX to the 90's NOFX. Solid album with 2-3 very good songs. Still, lyrics are just completely loonatic and weird sometimes.)
4-Green Day - Uno (Surprised me. Wasn't expecting much from it but they decided to do some things they haven't done in a long time. It's not great, though.)
9464135212564961351- Pennywise - All or Nothing (I chose nothing. Boring as always, every song sounds the same. It's like listening to AC/DC, but in this case, every song is bad.)
My final lists, in no particular order. Was a great year for folkish stuff.

Tanzania Parliament under Speaker Anne Makinda is steadily moving away from being a rubber stamp and partisan politics. Instead, it is paying greater attention to promoting national interest and challenging the Executive whenever necessary.
This is assessment of several Members of Parliament in comments during interviews this week with The Guardian on Sunday but they admit however that the watchdog role was earnestly nurtured during the 9th Parliament.
Saying the Parliament's image has tremendously changed, James Lembeli (CCM- Kahama), was still of the view that colleagues in his party, who are the majority in the House, ought to go a step further.
For his part Freeman Mbowe (Chadema – Hai) said given that the House unanimously rejected the budgets of the Ministries of Energy and Minerals and Communications and Transportation, it shows the MPs are united in championing the national interest.
Under the Westminster system, the Parliament makes laws and grants money for running the administration of the country and overseeing government programmes and plans. Additionally, it oversees the actions of the Executive, ensuring that it is accountable for its administration.
"I think she is handling the House, well contrary to the expectations of her critics said Kawe MP (Chaderma) Halima Mdee," commenting on Speaker Makinda's performance.
Ubungo MP John Mnyika (Chadema) said compared to the Chairpersons of the Parliament Sylvester Mabumba, Jenister Mhagama and George Simbachawene, the Speaker has performed better.
The Speaker should lead the House judiciously in order to perform its constitutional role, adding that she should not accept simple answers from government to complex national matters raised by Members of Parliament.
When Speaker Makinda took over from Samuel Sitta late last year most MPs expressed fear that Parliament could be rendered toothless, losing the new grip it started tightening on the government during the first term of the fourth regime.

The right place for challenge layouts
Hi, I am relatively new here, have begun to take part in challenges, I love it, a good way for me to learn and try myself in new things.
I thought I knew where to place my results but when I did one for the colour challenge - Moss and placed it in the colour challenge gallery, I was wondering why my layout appears on http://www.godigitalscrapbooking.com...=all&limit=all whereas all the others show up on e.g. http://www.godigitalscrapbooking.com...hp?photo=10346.
I expected to find all photos concerning the same challenge "side by side" to get a survey of all.
Would anybody be so kind to enlighten me? And please excuse if I seem to be impatient - think I really am - I already asked my question in the challenge thread, but not having an answer yet I am here now. In case my English sounds somewhat funny ... I am a German girl.
Have a nice day, Billa

If there are several means for several different strategies to combat a card and have a chance to fight back, that's good. If a card is so powerful that the only way to beat it is to pack one of a small handful of cards into a file, that's bad. Sure, the good players will adapt either way, but it's still bad for the game as it helps invalidate the many cards in the card pool. One of the best ways to evaluate all of this is to have a thriving playerbase that could help put things to test, which is unfortunately something we do not have.
And come one DG, there are no good falkow lvl 4s except urgrant and marduk? What about Cyclone, Volfied, Plundering girl pirate, Wrath, Ryu, Ex Mystere, Faytis, and Reia? And that's just at the top of my head.
