We are the Queens of our Self. What does that mean? What is the Self?
The Self is the sum of all of our parts, and holistically, it is greater than the sum of all of our parts. The fluid Self transcends time and space, expanding and shape-shifting, changing and adapting to accommodate the possibility of all possibility. Our Self is the artful patchwork of our own lives designed from the wild and wonderful patterns of our own personality and experiences, and crafted from our individual inner authority.
Here are some words of Self-wisdom by some very wise women:
"We have all a better guide in ourselves, if we would attend to it, than any other person can be."
– Jane Austen
"Doubt yourself and you doubt everything you see. Judge yourself and you see judges everywhere. But if you listen to the sound of your own voice, you can rise above doubt and judgement. And you can see forever."
– Nancy Kerrigan
"It took me a long time not to judge myself through someone else's eyes."
– Sally Field
"Falling, falling, falling, falling down. Look yourself in the eye before you drown."
– Emily Saliers, Indigo Girls
"Our goal while on this earth is to transcend our illusions and discover the innate power of our spirit."
– Caroline Myss
The authentic self is the soul made visible.
– Sarah Ban Breathnach
"In our natural state, we are glorious beings. In the world of illusion, we are lost and imprisoned, slaves to our appetites and our will to false power."
– Marianne Williamson
"If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people."
– Virginia Woolf
"Every problem can be solved with the proper application of the means at hand. Maybe not easily, happily, cheaply or painlessly – but it can be done if you have the will; you already have the means – yourself!"
-Joanne Siewert
"It is easier to live through someone else than to become complete yourself."
-Betty Friedan
"I didn't leave Sonny for another man. I left for another woman. Me."
– Cher
"The bright shining
only reflects back to myself,
my own light blinding me.
I can't see the world and they can't see me."
– Anna Chrisrest
"Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else."
– Judy Garland
"Since you are like no other being ever created since the beginning of time, you are incomparable."
– Brenda Uleland
"At some point in my life, I swallowed a Sun. And now it dawns and sets in my belly."
– Erika Harris,
"My heart filled with love, flowing over with joy, my own little drum that I like to march by!"
Gunda Fijnje-Nolan
"I took a deep breath and listened to the old bray of my heart. I am. I am. I am."
– Sylvia Plath

Tom Wolfe and I grew up in the same southern city and decided to move to New York. I think that our individual moves allowed us both to develop good individual style.
If he or I were still living where we grew up, we would perhaps be comforming to a totally different esthetic.
I love New York!

I was thinking about Tom Wolfe just a couple of days ago, idly wondering about the mammoth size of drycleaning bill from wearing his famous white suits every day. I remember an interview where he said they had to be dry cleaned after one wear, by themselves, in a new batch of solution. Poor Tom, I thought, with his admirable but ruinously expensive dedication to style!
Lo and behold I am gladdened to see that he wears other colors - maybe he can get two or three wears out of this color!
Tom looks super well turned out naturally, but it is a bit mind blowing to think he is an elderly man. In my mind he is the cheeky and amusing youngish man of his early writings! (and somehow, I know he still is).

Management Problems
The following perspectives on problems and opportunities for watershed management will guide MDC management priorities and activities for the foreseeable future. We realize we are only one of many partners whose joint efforts will be needed to protect and restore stream ecosystem integrity in the Wyaconda River watershed.
Managing MDC Riparian Ownerships
Stream Access Acquisition
MDC has purchased small tracts of land along streams in order to provide public access for recreation and to establish an ownership stake that may strengthen our position in resisting system-wide threats to riparian habitat integrity. In the past, statewide planners have assumed that a desirable spacing was approximately ten stream miles between access areas. Experience suggests that it takes much longer to float and/or fish a typical reach of prairie stream than an equivalent length of Ozark stream. Because of slower currents and more frequent channel obstructions in the prairie region, we should seek to shorten the distance between access areas to five to seven miles on floatable, unchannelized prairie streams with high public use potential.
In order to provide a stream access system with optimal one-day trip distances, MDC should acquire at least one additional access site in the Wyaconda River watershed. Optimal location of this access would be near the Lewis-Clark county border, approximately five to seven miles above Wyaconda Crossing Conservation Area. Above this proposed site, the river is heavily channelized, making the recreational opportunities limited.
Stream Access Development
Because of fiscal restraints, planned developments have not been completed on all existing stream access areas in the Northeast Region. Developments must be completed so citizens can experience the quality recreational opportunities that will build their individual commitment to helping preserve and restore streams in this and other watersheds. As a matter of strategic priority, MDC will put a higher priority on completing planned developments on existing areas than acquiring additional areas.
Both Wyaconda Crossing Conservation Area and Sunnyside School Access should have a concrete boat ramp and 5-car parking lot for stream access. These structures would provide increased opportunity for boaters and stream enthusiasts.
Site-Specific Stream Restoration
Although stream ecosystem health is almost entirely dependent upon processes occurring upstream and downstream of any given ownership, Department of Conservation riparian areas should serve as model of good stream stewardship. In the Wyaconda River watershed, streambank erosion and forested corridor deficiencies are minor at MDC owned access areas. In areas where the forested corridor is too narrow, passive restoration is being used to increase corridor width.
Public Use Information
Public use of Wyaconda River watershed streams is low to moderate, partially because most people may have stereotyped northern Missouri streams as turbid, unattractive ditches that contain primarily non-game fish. While this may be true for some parts of the Wyaconda River, lower sections contain unique habitats and pleasing scenery.
MDC could increase public use and appreciation of the Wyaconda River watershed streams by developing a brochure describing stream recreational opportunities. Such a brochure would include colored pictures, simple stream maps with mileages, access sites and camping areas clearly marked, descriptions of other local attractions, and fishing opportunities/regulations. Statewide news releases and an article n the Conservationist magazine might also help to inform potential users of the opportunities awaiting them in the Wyaconda River watershed.
Conservation of Aquatic Communities
Statewide, the Department of Conservation has developed a long-term Resource Assessment and Monitoring program (RAM). The objective is to establish standardized sampling methods for several stream ecosystem attributes, especially biotic communities that will allow scientists to provide an accurate, legally defensible portrayal of conditions and trends. Sampling is occurring at random and fixed sites to allow statewide or individual watershed assessments. Information gathered from this effort may be used to prioritize watersheds for conservation.
Long-Term Fish Community Monitoring
Long-term monitoring to assess stream fish community trends has not been conducted in the Wyaconda River watershed. Although some sites within the basin may be included in the statewide RAM program, extensive sampling within that framework is not likely to occur for several years. In the meantime, in order to monitor trends in fish community composition and population levels, the Department of Conservation should conduct fish community surveys at sites randomly selected from among those surveyed during 1988 at least every ten years.
Fishery Management and Research Needs
As in most northeastern Missouri streams, fish communities in the Wyaconda River watershed seem to be imbalanced. Recognizing that our sampling methods may under represent large fishes, surveys in some basin streams still suggests the existence of relatively few fish-eating predators (flathead catfish, black bass or walleye), but large numbers of invertebrate-eating bottom feeders (channel catfish, river carpsuckers, freshwater drum, common carp, and a variety of minnow species). Non-game fishes are represented mostly by species tolerant of the shallow depths and shifting substrates caused by excessive watershed erosion and subsequent stream channel sedimentation. Shifting substrates dramatically reduce biological productivity, so in channelized streams the large populations of invertebrate-eating fish are almost entirely dependent upon terrestrial inputs or whatever invertebrate production occurs on in-channel woody debris. There are not enough predatory fish to manage the abundant insect-eating fish. Degraded habitat may be the main factor limiting fish-eating predator abundance and thereby preventing ecosystem balance.
Monitoring Contaminants in Fish
The entire basin has been included in a limited consumption advisory issued by the Missouri Department of Health for fish species with a high proportion of fat in their edible tissues (catfish, carp, buffalo, drum, suckers). Levels of concern for chlordane were reported in the early 1990s for catfish in this and neighboring watersheds and the Mississippi River. This advisory was lifted in 2001 due to declining chlordane levels. However, another consumption advisory was issued in 2001 due to mercury contamination. The advisory recommends that pregnant or nursing women, women of childbearing age, and children 12 years of age or younger not eat largemouth bass 12 inches long or longer from anywhere in Missouri.
Long-Term Mussel Community Monitoring
Mussels are found in low densities in most reaches of basin streams. Extensive, basin-wide surveys have not been conducted. The Department of Conservation needs to assess species diversity and abundance by conducting a carefully designed, system-wide survey. Survey sites and sampling periodicities should be consistent with RAM and other fish survey protocols.
Supporting Other Agencies and Organizations
The Missouri Department of Conservation works with many other governmental agencies and private conservation organizations in the process of managing stream resources. The following formal or traditional interactions are among the most significant in frequency and scope, and they should be continued.
Missouri Department of Natural Resources (DNR)
MDC assists DNR by periodically recommending water quality standard classifications for stream reaches of special concern and assisting in water pollution investigations whenever an event results in the loss of aquatic life. In such cases, MDC's role is to document the number of dead fish and other aquatic organisms and report to DNR the estimated value of animals lost according to formulas established by the American Fisheries Society. MDC should continue its coordination efforts with DNR to ensure efficient use of state government resources in the conservation of streams in the Wyaconda River watershed.
Missouri Department of Health (DOH)
MDC assists DOH by periodically collecting fish from select streams and preparing tissue samples for analysis of pesticide and heavy metal contaminants. We also cooperate with DOH in advising anglers about precautions to take in the consumption of fish.
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE)
MDC joins several other agencies in commenting to COE and DNR about activities in streams that require permit and certification under Sections 404 and 401, respectively, of the Federal Clean Water Act. COE requires a Section 404 permit for operators who propose to deposit or stockpile material in stream channels; and DNR requires a Section 401 certification for any activity that could significantly degrade water quality. MDC biologists also help to disseminate information about streambed and bank stabilization and stream-friendly sand and gravel removal practices to county commissions, contractors, and landowners.
MDC personnel are often the first agency representatives contacted by neighbors when individuals or public entities engage in what appears to be unpermitted and destructive practices in and along streams. MDC biologists should remain vigilant advocates for the interests on all riparian residents, upstream and downstream, who may be adversely affected by the activities of those few who knowingly violate Sections 404 or 401 of the Clean Water Act.
MDC recognizes that regulations are necessary to protect streams and their watersheds. Watershed management must be approached in a balanced, market-based manner that falls somewhere in the continuum between regulatory protection and voluntary conservation efforts.
Conservation Federation of Missouri (CFM)
MDC facilitates and promotes Stream Team, a program initiated by CFM that seeks to enlist volunteers in the stream conservation effort. One Team has adopted a segment of stream in the Wyaconda River watershed; however, they report little to no activity. Far more citizen activity will be needed for any significant stream improvements to occur within the watershed.
Assisting Citizen-Led Watershed Conservation Efforts
We are convinced that the watershed conservation approach will work only if there is widespread recognition that social, economic, and environmental values associated with streams are compatible. If that can be achieved, success will depend upon local initiatives to form diverse partnerships of committed groups and individuals under the leadership of landowners and other local interests.
Watershed restoration is essential to restoring the primary processes that create and maintain fish habitat in healthy stream ecosystems. The most critical and affordable first step in watershed restoration is passive restoration. The cessation of human activities that are causing degradation or preventing recovery (e.g., channelization, riparian corridor clearing, indiscriminate gravel dredging, and streamside livestock grazing). Active restoration (e.g., tree revetments and riparian corridor plantings) should be considered only if recovery fails to occur over a reasonable period of time while using passive techniques (e.g., livestock exclusion and natural regeneration of woody plants). Because restoring degraded stream ecosystems is more costly and risky than simply protecting fully functional sites, we suggest that protecting and preserving intact riparian ecosystems be the highest priority of watershed-scale restoration efforts.
Protecting Healthy Riparian Corridors Stream Stewardship
A program aimed at conserving healthy forested stream corridors by placing them into permanent easements using Stream Stewardship Agreements (SSA) was piloted in Marion County between 1992 and 1995. That effort resulted in the permanent conservation of 88 acres of 100- to 200-foot-wide forested corridor on four ownerships along 2.4 miles of the South Fabius River. Although there are no SSA in the Wyaconda River watershed, the infrastructure now exists for MDC to facilitate the permanent conservation of healthy stream corridors, but measurable impact will require funding from a variety of sources. Enrollment of streamside lands in continuous CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) will not substitute for enrollment in SSA or other permanent easement programs because healthy forested corridors cannot be enrolled in CRP, and land enrolled in CRP buffers may be converted back to crop production at the end of the short-term contract periods (10 to 15 years). However, CRP may provide viable first step for landowners on the long path toward converting eroding floodplain crop fields or pastures into functional riparian corridors.
Passively Restoring Mildly Degraded Riparian Corridors Livestock Exclusion
The activity of livestock can degrade physical aspects of water quality and habitat by causing streambank erosion, resulting in turbidity and stream channel sedimentation. Chemical aspects of water quality can be degraded by livestock waste. In some situations, streambank stabilization, corridor reforestation, and improved water quality can be achieved simply by excluding livestock from stream corridors. For fencing to be attractive to landowners, an alternative source of livestock water must be available (e.g., upland ponds, or shallow floodplain wells tapped by nose pumps or solar-powered pumps). Some landowners may have potential alternative water sources on their property, but may not have the money or the technical support to adopt new technology. Cost-share money for fencing and alternative watering may be available through a variety of federal and state programs. Department of Conservation biologists are available to assist landowners in selecting a practical alternative to instream watering of livestock.
Educating Future Watershed Stewards
Educating our youth about the complexities of watershed processes and problems will be critically important in advancing the science and art of watershed conservation. Today's youth are more technologically oriented and therefore likely to embrace complex information systems. And because of changes in classroom teaching strategy, they are likely to work effectively in problem-solving teams once they become adults.
MDC has found that students in and around the 6th grade are particularly receptive to messages about stream conservation because they can understand most concepts and evaluate new ideas with relatively little social or cultural bias. Classroom teachers may find helpful lesson-planning materials in Missouri's Stream Team Curriculum, a watershed-based curriculum developed by teachers, for teachers, that will help students to meet environmental education goals in the Missouri Performance Standards.
Junior high and high school students in vocational agricultural programs may also be prime candidates for watershed conservation education because they are more likely than others to become landowners and other important members of rural communities. Involving these students in hands-on stream conservation activities may contribute to the creation of a new generation of landowners committed to stream ecosystem integrity.
Citizen Primer to Leadership in Watershed Conservation
This section is included as a starting point for citizens who wish to lead or contribute significantly to watershed-based stream conservation efforts. The proliferation of information about watershed planning can be intimidating to individuals or groups who have decided that they have a problem they wish to fix. To facilitate that process, we recommend that potential leaders and contributors to watershed conservation efforts first familiarize themselves with a summary of lessons learned over the past decade about what works and what does not. The list in Table Mp01 combines the Top 10 Watershed Lessons Learned published by the United States Environmental Protection Agency with the ten principles for effectively coordinating watershed-based programs listed by Turner (1997). These documents are highly recommended reading.
Citizens determined to develop and implement watershed conservation plans can also obtain critically important information about organizing and funding such projects by visiting the Internet websites listed in Table Mp02. These sites contain convenient links to many other sites that, in the aggregate, provide enough information about the watershed conservation process to help any individual or group get started in an informed and effective manner.

Summerlike heat will continue to bake the Plains, while scattered rain and thunderstorms will lead to a soggy Tuesday across a wide swath of the north-central states.
Plains, Southeast: Blistering heat into the 90s and low 100s will likely shatter records in the central and southern Plains. Bone-dry winds will add to the misery and increase the fire danger. The Southeast will also be warm and dry but not as hot as the Plains.
Northern tier: Scattered showers and storms will dampen the Great Basin, northern Plains, Upper Midwest and Ohio Valley. None of the thunderstorms are forecast to reach severe levels. Temperatures will be much cooler in the northern tier.
Some light snow is possible in the high mountains of the Sierra and Tetons. Light showers are also possible along the Northwest coast and northern New England.
YOUR TAKE: Share your weather photos
Weather history for May 6: In 1989, the coldest Kentucky Derby on record was run, as temperatures were in the mid-40s in Louisville, with snow flurries reported in the area.
In 1992, while the temperature dropped to a record low of 18 degrees in Marquette, Mich., a record high of 93 degrees was measured in Walla Walla, Wash. In 2007, the town of Greensburg, Kan., was 95% destroyed by a tornado. 11 people were killed.

Ideas don't need to be fully fleshed out. In fact, in many cases a simple pointer to a proposal or even a discussion hosted elsewhere is all that is needed at this time.
There isn't a hard deadline on this request, but we anticipate that the data captured will be discussed at the next AC meeting which goes from the 15th of May to the 17th of May. — Sam Ruby
Do not hesitate to make lists. A good source of ideas are the bugs resolved LATER.

Ideas List
New Semantics
Decompress Element <decompress> to integrate files from ZIP folders into webpages directly
Goal: To allow files from compressed folders (primarily .ZIP, and so forth) to be accessible in web browsers. This could have many uses, such as reducing bandwidth for computer and mobile platforms by distributing large HTML or image files through a ZIP folder and allowing them to be accessible through a web browser.
First, specify the ZIP folder that carries the files that you wish to be displayed on your webpage.
Example: <decompress href="http://thisisanexample.com/mobile/familyreunion.zip">
This informs the browser that the zip folder "familyreunion.zip" contains files that may need to be used in the HTML document. After the decompress element has been used, files from the ZIP folder can be integrated into the webpage like the following examples:
Activities from our family reunion
In the first line of code from the example, the anchor tag provides a link to an HTML document inside the file "familyreunion.zip". Since the ZIP folder has already been specified in the decompress tag, the anchor tag automatically is aware of where to go inside the ZIP folder if the user clicks on the link "Activities from our family reunion."
On the second line of code from the example, the image tag works likewise but grabs a photo from the specified "familyreunion.zip" and sticks it on the current page the user is browsing.
Just as note, it is imperative that each ZIP file that contains files to be integrated into a webpage is called through the decompress tag. Not doing so might have the browser prompt the user to save the ZIP folder to the user's hard drive instead of displaying the contents directly in the webpage.
--Jace Voracek November 5, 2011
Isn't this already achieved through the
Content-Encoding and
Transfer-Encoding headers of HTTP/1.1?
Being able to identify the title of a book, blog posts, movie, etc. and to relate to it the authors even if the markup is being spread over a few paragraph. In a pseudo markup to illustrate what could be the links in between the items. That would not be mandatory to establish the relations in between them.
[title: The praise of Shadow id:praise by:junichiro] is a book written by [author: Junichiro Tanizaki id:junichiro] explaining … etc.
<location> element (like
Eg <location lat=54.3 long=32 altitude=540>Bill's mother's house</location
<datagrid> element
I've made this proposal elsewhere, but here seems a good place to reiterate it. The <teaser> element is intended to be a wrapper around a summary block of content with an associated link to a fuller block of content. You see similar structures all over the web, from search result listings to front pages for blogging sites, in which you generally have a title (often linked), a summary block with or without some kind of media resource, and either a _more_ link or a URL to the full article. In general it would be a sectional element that might be placed in another sectional element, such as  pages:
 <teaser>
My First Cool Article

This is my first article on the page, and it's really cool.
  <time>3 Days Ago</time>
http://www.myserver.com/myFirstCoolArticle.html
  </teaser> <teaser>
My Second Cool Article

This article is on superconducting fields, and is even cooler than my first article.
  <time>1 Days Ago</time>
 http://www.myserver.com/mySecondCoolArticle.html</a
  </teaser>
There are a number of good reasons for adopting the <teaser> element:
- It describes a common, frequently used structure in HTML.
- There are currently no elements that serve the same purpose (the closest may be , but that more commonly is used specifically as a footnote citation mechanism, and is not specifically aware of the / structure of HTML5).
- It increases search engine optimization and component control optimization, as different widgets could be used to render this structure in different ways from a list of items to a shoutbox or similar component.
- It doesn't necessarily participate in the list numbering mechanism.
- It can be used with internal named anchorst to make a fast TOC.
- It works well in the blogging model that HTML5 seems to be adopting as the foundation for sectional content.
Importing font file formats using a "fontsrc" tag attribute
Being able to integrate specific font file formats into a webpage using a "fontsrc" attribute. Such would be used for purposes of allowing a "special" font to be displayed on a page that would typically be unrecognized by other web browsers. This would allow a developer to use unique special characters on the page, or developers to customize the font of languages that are sometimes difficult to read because of jumbled pixels. (Arabic, Farsi, etc.) It may be best to use this element with the common .TTF, .FNT, and .TF formats.
For example, the font format could be called using the font tag:
 Text written here will be displayed according to the font file format specified.
--Jace Voracek April 2011
This functionality is already supported via the CSS @font-face rule [1].
--Glenn Adams November 2011
Automatic capitalization in input fields
See the proposal for use cases and details.
Enhancing Authentication Forms
Today most browsers include heuristics for guessing when a page includes a form that represents an authentication or login form with variable accuracy. These heuristics are sometimes confused by password change forms, for example. Adding annotations to forms and fields representing authentication would allow user agents to more accurately recognise these scenarios and improve interoperability in this area.
--Adrian Bateman [MSFT] 11 May 2011
Localising Form Controls
Web developers frequently ask for the ability to localise form controls that include text such as the Browse or Pick button on <input type=file> and the strings that make up date/time controls.
--Adrian Bateman [MSFT] 28 June 2011
Web developers need a inputable dropdown select like other UI system.
<select name="age" inputable="inputable"> <option value="11"></option> <option value="12"></option> </select>
--Yanming Zhou 1 Feb 2012
Adaptive Images
Read more about Adaptive Images or see Adaptive Image Element.
Adaptive Streaming
See http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Adaptive_Streaming and http://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/Video_Metrics for some initial work.
There are a number of different adaptive streaming formats (just like there are a number of different progressive download media formats). Many uses cases for adaptive streaming also require some form of protected content. The current HTML5 media elements support selecting from different formats and defining these formats is outside the scope of the HTML working group. Nevertheless, there are aspects of adaptive streaming and protected content that do require enhancement in the scope of HTML to support common use cases (especially those from popular video distribution networks). Specifically, these include:
- Additional media element states to allow the UA to display status (for example negotiating acquisition with the server)
- Additional media element errors (for example failed negotiation)
- Additional media element events (for example bit-rate change)
- Additional media element properties (for example current bit-rate - this may be related to the other QOS metrics)
Audio Balance
HTML5 Audio balance adjustment (left/right) for stereo tracks.
Video enhancements
(fast/slow) rewind, previous/next frame
Fullscreen and Screenshots
domElement.fullScreen(); and
domElement.getImageData(0, 0, domElement.offsetWidth, domElement.offsetHeight);
For fullscreen, see Fullscreen
<editor> element
An editor element which allows saving back to the same page one is editing without all the hassle we have to go through today.
<textarea type="wysiwyg">
It could be <textarea type="wysiwyg"> or some such. It should support "flat" yet simplified HTML.
Main purpose of the editor: WYSIWYG editing of structured (semantic) text. Intended usage: blogs, emails, WYSIWYG wiki editing.
Proposed list of supported elements:
- blocks p, ul/li,ol/li,dl/dt/dd,blockquote,pre
- spans: strong/em/a/sup/sub/u/code/strike.
- inline-blocks: img and br(with proper visualization).
- simple tables: table/tr/th/td
- shall support copy/paste of images from/to system clipboard (can be disabled by attribute)
- shall support copy/paste of text and HTML from/to system clipboard (can be disabled by attribute)
- shall not support inline styles of any kinds.
- may have attribute content-style="some.css" defining styles of elements inside the editor.
- only simple "tag" and "tag.class" selectors in some.css shall be used.
Serialization: It shall be serializeable (set/get) into markup with structure close to this:
<envelope>  <image cid="1234" name="..." type=mime/type>base-64-encoded body</image> <image cid="5678" name="..." type=mime/type>base-64-encoded body</image>  ... mini-html markup ...   </envelope>
cid's (content id's) shall support unique naming that allows to do simple body.replace("cid=1234","src=final.url") when content needs to be rendered outside the editor.
Form submission of such input element shall be done as a whole: images, if any, are part of the content. Value of the input element is either plain text, HTML fragment (with images having only external urls) and <envelope> - for JavaScript it is a JSON map {"head":[],body:""}. --Andrew Fedoniouk 05:46, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
Imagine a list like this one:

Lorem
Ipsum
Dolor
sit
et cetera

It will render like this:
- Lorem
- Ipsum
- Dolor
- sit
- et cetera
Now, if you as user/author copy the entire list item with 'Dolor', and paste it into a normal WYSIWYG text editor, its "3." will be replaced with "1." But I want to be able to copy it as number "3."
Components and ECMAScript
Also known as dynamic subclassing of DOM elements.
This feature is greatly useful for UI component frameworks and toolkits.
Consider this JavaScript code:
document.behaviors["ul.some>li"] = { // the behavior class: attached: function() {...}, detached: function() {...}, onmousedown: function() {...}, onclick: function() {...}, ... };
The behavior is a collection of methods that is assigned (mixed-in) to all elements satisfying the selector used in declaration. When the element gets the behavior then the attached function is invoked. onmousedown and others will be default event handlers for such elements.
For the same purposes we can reuse binding property from CSS (See BECSS at http://www.w3.org/TR/becss/#the-binding )
document.behaviors["some.name"] = { // registration of the behavior class: attached: function() {...}, detached: function() {...}, onmousedown: function() {...}, onclick: function() {...}, ... };
And in CSS:
ul.some>li { color: red; binding: "some.name" [optional js source url]; }
Example of its use, in CSS we can define
input[type="masked"] { binding:"jquery-ui.masked"; }
And so in markup it will be enough to define
<input type="masked" >
to insert and activate it in place (assuming that behavioral jquery-ui implementation is included).
--Andrew Fedoniouk 06:14, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
For the sake of modularity it should be window.include("url"[,mime/type]) method available in JavaScript.
Similar to what @import url(...) does in CSS.
If to assume that behaviors are there then the include() should able to include CSS resources too.
--Andrew Fedoniouk 06:25, 11 April 2011 (UTC)
JavaScript: namespaces and classes
(I don't know is this the right place for JavaScript improvement proposals or not, anyway...)
JavaScript code is getting more and more complex these days. Many libraries can be used on the same page. But lack of namespaces [and classes] is just non-acceptable. May I suggest to consider namespaces and classes in JavaScript from my TIScript? TIScript uses similar (to JS) runtime and syntax so I am pretty sure they can be added to JS as they are.

Syntax highlighting for  elements

Document Organisation
Modular Enhancements
Thinking about enhancing HTML after the HTML5 specification moves into Last Call, we believe that an approach similar to the CSS3 structure is favourable. The CSS working group works on a number of different modules in parallel, each progressing at a different rate, some being successful and some falling by the wayside. They all depend on the framework defined by CSS 2.1, the large monolithic spec that they all reference. Most of the modules are additive but some may modify or extend the behaviour of the underlying 2.1 spec.
Applying this notion to HTML, we would like to see new HTML features proposed as cohesive modules with a dependency back to the monolithic HTML5 spec that provides the overall framework. One of the problems with a large specification is that different features stabilise at different rates. Adopting a more modular approach would allow the features with most interest and support to move forward more quickly. This allows implementers to ship without vendor prefixes and yet avoid some of the versioning issues we've seen recently.

- Abstract
- This paper introduces the Bridging Design Prototype (BDP) concept. A BDP is the functional prototype of a new product that a user community can incorporate into their activities, while a researcher uses it for observation and testing. Due to limited research resources, the BDP was an outcome of adjusting the principles of several user-centred design methods and a learning theory. These principles where then applied to the development of a suitable product that could be incorporated in real settings.

November 9th, 2012
Nestle is recalling more than 200,000 canisters of its chocolate drink mix Nesquik because of possible contamination of salmonella.
Nestle said the problem occurred on batches of the the mix produced in October. The bottom of the canister says it is best to use by October 2014. The size of the canisters affected are 40.7 ounces, 21.8 ounces, and 10.9 ounces. The two smaller containers have a promotion for the current Disney movie "Wreck-It Ralph" on the side of the container and the words "Be a Hero" across the bottom.
Nestle said the problem was caused by ingredient supplier, Omya Inc. that it has issued a recall of certain lots of its ingredient, calcium carbonate. Linda Pleiman, an Omya spokesperson, said that it had notified its other customers of the problem but was not aware of any other recalls at this time.

The color chemists at Holbein took a decade to develop Vernét Superior Artists' Oils, with the stated objective of creating the most advanced artists' oil color ever produced. With a range of 40 remarkably strong, beautiful, and stable colors, the Vernét line is truly the dream palette of tomorrow's great masters.
Vernét's innovation lies in its technology. It differs fundamentally from other artists' oils in that the grain diameter of the pigment is roughly half the size of standard line equivalents. This produces a remarkable color depth and vibrancy. With such a fine pigment grain, light is reflected more evenly without being scattered, resulting in an almost transparent luminosity and beauty.
Made with pure, single pigments and
Sampler Set of 3 — Discover the brilliance of Vernét Superior Artists' Oils with this sampler set of three colors, which includes Pyrrol Red, Imidazolone Yellow, and Phthalocyanine Blue in 10 ml tubes.
Set of 5 — This set contains five colors in 20 ml tubes, including Pyrrol Red, Imidazolone Yellow, Terre Verte, Phthalocyanine Blue, and Burnt Sienna.
Set of 12 — This set contains 12 colors in 20 ml tubes, including Alizarin Crimson, Cadmium Red, Cadmium Yellow, Yellow Ochre, Bismuth Yellow, Terre Verte, Phthalocyanine Green, Cobalt Blue, Prussian Blue, Quinacridone Magenta, Burnt Sienna, and Titanium White.

Despite losing in straight sets to Angelique Kerber the final of her
own home tournament, Caroline Wozniacki still managed to leave the Kopenhagen Open with people talking about her as The Telegraph yesterday published an interesting interview on finance with the former world number one. One of her answers has caused quite the stir.
Ha ha, no. I think tennis players are actually underpaid, but I might be a little biased. I like to think we are rewarded for the hard work we put in.
From her point of view, I can actually see the logic in her answer. Certainly compared to other athletes, tennis players are certainly "underpaid". I mean, after watching the Superbowl for the first time this year, I felt personally offended when I learnt just how much those "athletes" were paid considering how little they actually play, how aesthetically unpleasing the sport is and the fact that American "Football" is nothing but glorified throw and catch. And that's not to mention her boyfriend being another overpaid athlete in that McIlroy dude. But still, having earnt $13m prize money and probably double that in endorsements, it's quite a funny thing for the Pole Dane to say. So we'll just laugh.
Karolina also took to twitter to hush the talk surrounding this quote, attempting to rubbish it with the good ol' "I was mis-quoted" excuse. But, that only really works when the publication reporting it is an awful, trashy tabloid and not a fully transcribed interview with The Telegraph. Bless her. That said, the quote isn't nearly as bad as many are making out.

Over the year that followed, my sister began experimenting with OKCupid, never connecting with anyone enough to want to meet in person. Meanwhile, I kissed a bunch of frogs that I met on a "fishy" site. I even started a blog to write about my dating failures and the frogs I encountered. It was called "Adventures in Dating: A Blonde Girl's Guide to Dating All of the Wrong Men (Or: Nobody loves me, everybody hates me, I think I'll go drink vodka)." My blog had a decent following for a while – I assume because it hit home for so many of my friends. (I stopped writing in it in 2011– when I no longer needed to keep kissing frogs.)
In 2009, my sister joined Match.com. It was on Match.com that she finally found someone with whom she connected enough to meet in person. They met in the spring of 2009, and they're getting married in 2 weeks. Now, you should know that I had watched my sister begin to feel she would never find love; it was awful seeing her start to fear that her chance had passed. To see her getting married and to think back at that time brings me to tears. But that's not my point.
Last year, my other sister went through a traumatic breakup after 3 years with a man who my entire family despised. After that, she and I decided to both sign up for Match.com. If it worked for our oldest sister, it could work for us. My sister met her boyfriend on match.com last June. We're all expecting for them to get engaged soon. It's amazing to see her with a man who deserves her and can keep up with her energy. That's two sisters who found love on Match.com. Not too shabby.
Finally, I met my Matty on Match.com in 2011. After 9 months together, he and I moved in with one another this year. He's my soulmate, and there isn't a doubt in my mind. I had three first dates scheduled for the weekend when I met Matt. After I met him, I cancelled the other dates and never looked back. Another sister down for the count. Thanks, Match.com.
I'd like to put in a formal complaint that your process is far too effective. So effective that my parents are already kidding about the idea of funding 3 weddings so close together. One sister is getting married in 2 weeks, the other was told that she is allowed to get married in 2013. And I, the youngest sister (almost 27), was jokingly told that I am not allowed to get married until 2014. 7 years separate me and my oldest sister. Who would have thought we would find love within a couple of years of each other? You'd better hope that my Matthew can wait that long!
My father even came up with an idea for a Match.com advertisement. You can show a shot of my oldest sister & her match saying "We love Match.com!", then a shot of my middle sister & her match saying "We love Match.com!", followed by a shot of Matthew and me saying "We love Match.com!". Finally, you can show a shot of our father, shaking his head and saying, "I hate Match.com." I think it's clever.
You've changed the lives of my sisters and me, "for better or worse". While I must thank you for bringing me my Matty, did you have to bring both of my sisters their matches at the same time? You should think more about the consequences of your actions in the future! All jokes aside, on behalf of me and my sisters, I'd like to thank you for everything. "We love Match.com."
Update: My oldest sister married her match on May 20, 2012, Matt and I were married on March 29, 2014, and my middle sister and her match will be married on May 2, 2015!

Greetings Iczers,
I am pleased to announce our 3rd installment of unveiling the first Core set-now with the fiery punch of Gowen. This sphere is best known for it's tough, stand-alone fighters that excel in combat on the field. Gowen is also the only sphere with the 'rank up' mechanic, granting Iczers the ability to power up their units to above average power points. The name of the game for Gowen is damage, and they supply plenty of it. They do support one another, but their support is far inferior to the likes of Refess and are limited in utility. For what they lack in control, they make up for in cost effective damage and distributions of damage that is almost exclusive to Gowen. Healing and support is limited in Gowen, but certain key cards (such as Forest of Hate) do provide the crucial support needed to keep the pain train going.
This week's featured 3 star is Gun God / Ben MacLachlan. This gunslinger from the underworld is a tough nut to crack; with some support, Ben can provide a tricky opponent to overcome. His skills and stats allow him to sustain high amounts of punishment while providing enormous threat from his auto skill. While it may be tricky to trigger his counter without some help from your opponent, there are some methods to do this with Gowen cards (such as Salamander!) in order to force your opponent to engage Ben or be pummeled with bullets. We feel Ben, while having the potential for massive amounts of damage, is a fair card that engages both players when he's on the field-making him an excellent choice to include in the Core set. You can engage Ben, Debuff his AT to 0, or just even run him over with even more damage to make sure he doesn't get his turn at AGI 2! Without further ado, I would like to announce the common cards that are currently planned for the first Core installment!

"Less is more" is the Swedes' favorite way of describing their sense of fashion. Much like the Danes, their Scandinavian neighbors, Swedes have developed a taste for loosely-tailored and simplistic clothes spiced with what they would say is "an abundance" of color and prints. Yet, to most outsiders Swedish fashion is synonymous with Acne, skinny jeans and Fjällräven jackets and rucksacks.
But during last week's Stockholm Fashion Week, we discovered that while denim is continuously appreciated, Swedish designers have a vision that goes way beyond. Included was a collection made entirely from paper, a social exploration, and of course denim. Three particular womenswear designers' idea of Swedish fashion stood out.
Ann Sofie Back is described as one of the bad "boys" of Swedish fashion; when she launched her eponymous line in 2002 she reversed her catwalk shows so that they started with the finale, a clear indication of her resistance to succumb to fashion's unwritten rules. She has since grown to not only design two lines of her own—one being BACK—but the Central Saint Martins graduate has also functioned as the creative director of the new Swedish powerhouse, Cheap Monday since 2009.
Inspired by her 2005 atelier collection, the diffusion line BACK resembled a concept of "bricolage": raw edges, loose tulle scarves, massive leather belts and oversized denim left the impression of a girl not scared to experiment. "We design for a woman that is dressing for herself rather than a man. She must have a sense of humor and basically does not care about being "sexy," Back noted, while mentioning that her theme evolves from collection to collection rather than being based on new concepts each season.
Bea Szenfeld
Bea Szenfeld is not a designer in the usual sense of the word; she doesn't dream of dressing any celebrities. Actually, she can't imagine dressing anybody at all. "Preferably no one... The garments are very fragile and made out of paper. People sweat and cry and play with fire, and that destroys the paper," she exclaims, when asked whom she'd most like to wear. She hopes her garments will be seen at the MoMA in New York or the Victoria & Albert in London rather than any store worldwide.
Despite her clothes not being particularly functional, her creativity is hard to ignore. Inspired by "furries," Szenfeld designed a paper collection of pet shapes. One model walked down the runway draping a cat over her shoulders, another hugged by a gorilla, and a third dressed as what mostly looked like a peacock. Her love for animals is evident, and so is her inspiration from Björk, as lines could easily be drawn to the Icelandic singer's now notorious swan dress.
Minna Palmqvist
"Minna Palmqvist explores the obsession of the female body, by merging social commentary with fashion and art," reads Minna Palmqvist's bio. The Finnish born designer set up her namesake label in 2009 after graduating from Konstfack College of Arts in Stockholm with a final project called "Intimately Social." A project she's continued ever since basing each collection on her social observations. "The obsession with the female body and a strong belief in sustainability on all levels: aesthetically, ethically and environmentally," is how Palmqvist describes her brand.
Her loosely fitted S/S '14 garments left the models unrestricted and portrayed well her source of inspiration: "I was inspired by the thought of a woman and a body that had enough of being controlled and repressed, which can be seen in the cracked seams, the sweat marks made from crystals and the characteristic leather quilts being pressed out through the cuts." The almost entirely white, yellow, and brown garments were cleverly matched with sneakers to emphasize freedom.

U of M officials say urban community engagement a top priority
By Charles Hallman
Staff Writer
University of Minnesota's Northrop Auditorium, for most of its 90-plus life, has been the annual home for graduation ceremonies, concerts and speaking engagements, but in recent years it has fallen into "serious disrepair."
Using computer-generated images and input from other consultants, James Moore of HGA Architects and Engineers, during a November 21 press conference at Coffman Union, explained that his firm designed and carried out "a very complex…expansion" of the historic building that is expected to be fully completed in April 2014. "The construction has been done in a very careful way with lots of respect for the existing fabric," Moore pointed out. The "new" Northrop will have 2,174 fewer seats but 1,200 more seats closer to the stage, and the building's square footage will
be doubled from 15,000 to 30,000. Other new features include doubling the number of concessions stands and public restrooms along with installing an additional elevator. The building also will have over 10,000 more square feet for two new conference rooms, seven multi-purpose rooms, and a new 168-seat lecture/recital hall that will serve as home for two school programs.
When finished, it will be "a multi-purpose, state-of-the-art cultural center," proclaimed U of M Senior Vice-President for Academic Affairs and Provost Karen Hanson, adding that it also will house three school programs: the University Honors Program, the Institute for Advanced Study, and the College of Design's Travelers Innovation Lab.

This week Gerald Kitabu interviewed Mramba Makange Manyelo, a specialist on how the media can either perpetuate gender inequality, stereotypes and sexism or act as a catalyst for change.: Excerpts:
Question: There are claims that the media can perpetuate gender inequality, stereotypes and sexism or act as a catalyst for change through gender responsive media content and structure: Why do we experience gender insensitive contents in our media?
ANSWER: Gender issues have a deep root in the way we behave in our society starting at the family level to the institutional level. At the family level the society believes that the man is the head of the family and is the one who is supposed to make all key decisions.
That is why when a woman takes this role everybody around that family feels that the man has failed to take the lead. This does not end there but on top of this the surrounding community conclusively believes that the man is weak. It is from this fact that men who can't see beyond the sight of their eyes become violent to their wives so as to maintain male chauvinism.
It is from this background that the media houses do reflect what the society believes. Most media houses are dominated by men who make decisions on what to publish and what should not be published.
Under these circumstances it is the world of men that dominates the media. But above this the media is in business, they want to sell so that they can maximize wealth through direct selling and through adverts, so they must give the people what they want to see and hear.
Q: What should be done to address this problem?
A: The solution should come from me and you. Here I mean the lowest unit of the society. Men should understand that the family is made of father mother and children. The woman and the man are the major component. So the roles of both sexes should be same except where biological roles are concerned.
For the biological roles such as breast feeding for women or spermatozoa production for men, the other social political and economical roles are all the same. Men should realize this fact at the family level and it must be escalated to our children, that the boys and the girls in the family are equal. If the society grows in this way of thinking then the problems in the news room will soon be eliminated. For the time being the editors have a pivotal role to play.
They are the key holders of all articles and news stories that are allowed to come out to the public; they need to understand that women need justice from the media. Is it fair to portray women as entertaining beings and men as leaders, heroes etc? Let us think about our own daughters at home. Would we like this to happen to them? Same is the challenge to the reporters.
Q: What are the challenges of reporting gender issues?
A: There are several challenges but the following are more serious.
Ownership: The owners of most of the media companies are men who determine gender balance in staffing and other matters. So where you have 80 percent of media staff being men and worse enough holding all key positions as editors, it is a serious challenge when it comes to balanced gender reporting.
Religious beliefs: We understand what all religions say about the role of men and women in the society but still it remains in the hands of the media to balance between what we are told in the church and mosques and the social economic world surrounding us.
Our traditions towards women: The society has generally placed women as second from men and therefore this is a challenge to the media to make the society believe in a different way especially on issues such as inheritance, ownership, right to education, leadership etc. In Kilimanjaro for instance, it is very difficult to convince a Chagga man that a woman can become a king, in this sense a voted member of parliament. But they must take it as a challenge and promote the reverse.
Business against gender sensitive media content: The media is in a battle to balance two contradicting sides; on one side there is pressure from activists and scholars who demand balanced media content but on the other side there is what the buyers of media products need which is obviously the reverse.
Q: You have said the solution for gender inequality starts from the lowest unit of the society where men should understand that the family is made of father mother and children. What is the situation like in your family?
A: This is an interesting question. I was born in a polygamous family where my father had many wives. My father was very uncompromising when it came to issues involving our mother and in most cases he used his strong fist to silence her. We were very young then and unable to defend our mother but being young as we were we needed love from both our parents something that we were denied of.
This history of our life remained an agony among all of us in the family. It is from those days that I hated oppression against women and children.
