text: Instructor: Coordinator: Ms. Pam Marples Office: SC 201Q Phone: 824-2225 Email: email@example.com Course Objectives MA 112 has two main objectives. To help prepare students for calculus. MA 112 is the first course in a two-course precalculus sequence; the second course is MA 113, Precalculus Trigonometry To stand alone, as a self-contained course in college algebra More specifically, a student who successfully completes MA 112 should Be able to perform standard algebraic operations on polynomial and rational expressions, and transform algebraic expressions into various equivalent forms, depending on the purpose intended. Understand functions and expressions from contrasting but complementary points of view: algebraic, geometric, procedural. Be able to recognize basic functions (linear, quadratic, exponential, logarithmic) from both an algebraic and geometric point of view. Know the basic properties of exponential and logarithmic functions. Be able to solve linear and quadratic equations and simple equations with exponential and logarithmic functions. Have a good understanding of the function concept and the standard ways of combining functions using the arithmetic operations and composition. Recognize algebraic fallacies, particularly those that involve the improper interchange of operations. Be able to translate simple applied problems into algebraic language and have a general understanding of the applications of basic algebra. Make progress towards the general goal of being able to learn, use, and communicate mathematics independently. Format MA 112 is taught in a computer-assisted format. Students attend two classes per week on a regular schedule with a dedicated instructor, and also work in the Mathematics Learning Center on their own schedule with the help of instructors and other graduate assistants. Graded homework assignments, reviews, and some tests are computer-based. Alabama General Studies Curriculum MA 112 is an AGSC approved course. The standard AGSC number is Math 112. Prerequisites and Restrictions: Level 1 placement or a grade of S in MA 004 Credit: 3 Semester Hours. No credit given to students who have completed an MA course numbered above MA 112. Grading System: This course is graded A, B, C, D, F. Course Materials Precalculus, A Special Edition for the University of Alabama in Huntsville, 1st edition, by Ratti, and McWaters with MyMathLab, published by Addison Wesley. MyMathLab is part of the CourseCompass course management system. Graded Items The course grade will be determined on the basis of a total of 1000 points described below: Item Points Tests (4, on paper) 400 (100 each) Final Exam (part computer, part paper) 300 Quizzes (on paper) 80 (8 quizzes x 10 points) Computer Homework 126 (18 sets x 7 points) Paper Homework 55 (5 sets x 11 points) Pretest Reviews 40 (4 reviews x 10 points) Total 1001 Grading Scale The grading scale is given in the table below: Grade Points A 900-1001 B 800-899 C 700-799 D 600-699 F 0-599 There will also 4 sets of review problems available at the end of the semester. Working these problems can earn a student 20 bonus points (5 points per set of problems). Attendance Policies Each section of MA 112 will meet with their instructor two times per week for 55 minutes, on either a Monday-Wednesday schedule or a Tuesday-Thursday schedule. In addition, each student is required to work in the Math Learning Center at least 3 additional hours per week. It is the student's responsibility to keep a record of MLC hours each week to assure compliance with this requirement. The 3 hour requirement is waived upon completion of all assignments for the given week if the student had a score of 80% or better on the most recent exam. Before the first test, the requirement is in effect for all students. Failure to comply with the 3 hour requirement may, at the discretion of the instructor, result in a loss of up to five points per hour missed. Students will have one "free" absence, after that they will lose 25 points for each unexcused absence from class. Quiz and Homework Policies Homework assignments and computer quizzes may be done at the MLC or at home; however, we recommend that students do their work at the MLC. The proper plug-ins must be downloaded on the student's computer if they choose to work at home. (The necessary plug-ins may be found on the announcements page in CourseCompass. Click on the MyMathLab Installation Wizard link.). Please note that if a malfunction occurs at home while doing course work, students will not be able to make up homework assignments or quizzes that are not successfully received, completed, or graded because of technical problems. There are a total of 19 computer homework sets in the course. These build upon each other so they should be done in order. There are also 5 paper homework sets which will be given out in class and returned, when completed, to the MLC. Each quiz and homework assignment must be completed by the expiration date and time given on the schedule. No extensions will be given under normal circumstances. Quizzes must be taken in the MLC by 2:00 pm on the due date. No makeup quizzes will be allowed. One quiz and one computer homework assignment will be dropped, to allow for illness, car trouble, etc. No paper homework assignments will be dropped due to the extremely important nature of these assignments, as well as the amount of time allowed for their completion. If you are unable to complete your work due to an extended illness, travel related to an outside job, or other factors beyond your control, contact your instructor and the course coordinator as soon as possible to make alternate arrangements for your assignments. Course Compass keeps track of your homework, even if you did not finish an assignment, so you do not have to submit or save your homework, even if you stop in the middle of an assignment. Test Schedule Hourly exams will be given during regular class time. The final exam will be given on the regularly scheduled date and time for your class meeting time. See the course schedule for further details. Test Policies The tests are 55 minutes long. The final exam is 150 minutes long. The tests will be taken in class and the final exam will be taken in the MLC. Makeup tests will not be allowed except for extraordinary and documented emergencies. The student must contact the course coordinator within 3 business days to request a makeup test, and must provide any requested documentation regarding their absence. All makeup tests will be given at 9:00 am on Study Day in the MLC. A student's lowest test score will be replaced by the score on the final exam, if the final exam score is higher. However, a 0 test score due to academic misconduct will not be replaced. Bring your Charger Card ID and pencils to the final exam. We will provide scratch paper. No other paper is allowed. Please refrain from bringing unnecessary belongings to the MLC on final exam day. Such items will be stored at the front of the room during the test. You will be allowed to review your final exam before you leave the lab. You may not write down any information pertaining to test questions. You may not share test information with anyone else until after the test period is over. A violation of this policy is considered academic misconduct. Only the calculator on the computer is allowed unless the coordinator announces otherwise. Calculators will not be used on the in-class tests. General Policies The MLC is a mathematics classroom. Please be quiet during your visit to the MLC. You must show your Student ID to the monitor upon entering the MLC. You will not be allowed to enter without a valid ID. Eating, drinking and sleeping are not allowed in the MLC. No work other than mathematics is allowed in the MLC. In particular, talking, surfing the web, reading and sending e-mail (except e-mail related to MA 112), playing computer games, and working on non-mathematical courses are prohibited.

Testament Drummer Paul Bostaph Quits Band
Jason Le Miere | Dec 01, 2011 | Comments 7 | Tags: Chuck Billy, Dethklok, Paul Bostaph, Slayer, Testament
Testament frontman Chuck Billy has confirmed that drummer Paul Bostaph has left the band. The former Slayer skinsman is currently suffering from an injury that has prevented him from taking part in the recording of Testament's upcoming record—The Dark Roots of Earth—however, it had been expected that he would return to the band in time to tour.
However, Billy told the Terrorizer magazine in the U.K., "We just found out last week Paul Bostaph is not coming back to the band, he's starting his own new project and doing some things on his own. So we're actually going to be holding a couple of auditions with probably small group of drummers that we chose—we don't want to have a revolving drum stool, we have a new record, we want a permanent drummer."
Fear Factory and Dethklok drummer Gene Hoglan has been filling in for Bostaph during the recording sessions.

Roller-coaster ride stops in perfect spot for embattled Tebow
Published: Wednesday, June 12, 2013 at 6:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, June 12, 2013 at 12:15 a.m.
I've never much cared for the New England Patriots, though I think their helmets of the John Hannah and Jim Plunkett days might be the best the NFL has ever seen. After going the first generation of the Super Bowl without an appearance, the Patriots spent the second generation making the big game twice ... and getting blown out twice. Whatever dynasty people speak of began with the world being introduced to the ridiculous "tuck rule," which was so incredibly stupid it was immediately a punch line and has since been taken off the books, and ended under the shroud of the sweeping criticisms of "Spygate." I'm told sometimes that New England is the NFL's best franchise, but wonder how, considering the Giants and Steelers have added two more Super Bowl titles to their swelling trophy rooms since the Patriots last won one ... going on a decade ago. The Celtics, Red Sox and Bruins have given the city of Boston championship banners and parades since the Patriots last did. But, this franchise has won many big games and has many fans. I am just not one of them. However, I must admit that ... THIS ... IS ... BEAUTIFUL! Tim Tebow, the quarterback who seemingly no one wanted outside of some of those awful arena-league teams wanting a day of free publicity, is back in the NFL, and with the Patriots. If only it is to tweak Rex Ryan, the Jets coach who couldn't have left Tebow's resources more untapped last season if he had tried, this is a brilliant volley by New England. At worst, the Patriots have added a hard-nosed football player to a roster that seems to value its versatility. The University of Florida's Heisman winner, setter of SEC records, and member of two national title teams, has had a nonstop test of faith since entering the NFL blender as one of Denver's first-round draft selections in 2010. You hear of the "circus" that Tebow brings to every stop he makes as a pro, yet so many who run with the line don't stop for long enough to consider that the quarterback himself has never asked for the elephants, clowns and Eastern European acrobats. The quarterback wants to work hard, earn his paycheck, and help take his team as far as it can go while he digs into a grab bag of winning intangibles. With him, evidently, that means an AFC West title and a playoff victory over Pittsburgh. Without him ... butt fumbles and a new level of dysfunction no one knew was possible from a franchise that hangs onto memories of Joe Willie Namath like Al Bundy hangs onto his four-touchdown performance in the city championship game. Suddenly, unbelievably, Broadway Joe is 70. And Al Bundy isn't that far behind him. Ryan, once he had a moment to let the move of Tebow within the AFC East marinate, had little to say about his one-time pupil, mustering a backhanded compliment: "If they want to replace (Tom) Brady with him, that's fine." Patriots coach Bill Belichick had even less to say, which is possibly the most brilliant part of the whole move. Of any team in the NFL, Tebow will probably be most comfortable with the Patriots. He will be reunited with former UF stars Aaron Hernandez and Brandon Spikes, who stated during a 2005 recruiting visit to Alabama that he wanted to sign "where that guy signs," meaning Tebow. And he did. There's a Hall of Fame-bound incumbent in Brady, and a tight-lipped coach in Belichick who won't preside over an asylum. And one happy quarterback, who everyone knows will give everything he's got to maintain a job in a league he belongs in. -----

Part 2: Your ASS needs some Leather Amy
posted 3/8/2011 1:11:20 PM |
what's this?
report abuse
"Yes." He smirked and moved back towards the bed. She felt something cold and damp against her anus. And then one of his fingers. Rubbing around the outer ring before slowly pushing inside. A moan tore from her lips and his other hand slapped her ass. "Did I tell you that you could moan?"
"No, Sir, I'm sorry Sir." One finger became two, gently see-sawing out of her tight sphincter. A third finger was added and he smiled at her sharp intake of breath.
"Are you ready for your gift?"
"Yes sir." She nodded slowly and felt it pressing against her asshole. Thick soft plastic. He moved it slowly, pushing it in. It stretched her wide. Never had anything penetrated her ass before, and it was causing delicious friction, and shivers ran up and down her spine. The thick plastic grew thicker as it sunk deeper. She began to feel like it would never stop, it would just keep sinking deeper and deeper, stretching her wider and wider until she either came, or died from the excruciating pain/pleasure.
He watched as her ass gripped the plug, he pushed it slowly until just barely an inch was left, then he stopped, pulled his hand back and then slapped her ass hard. His fingers hit the butt plug and it quickly filled her the rest of the way. Her back arched and she cried out.
"Oh fuck! Shit! Fuck!" She cursed loudly, her hips pushing back trying to push the painful invader from her body. Her body quaked. The sensations were amazing. It hurt, but there was a layer of pleasure, just below the pain.
"Shhh." He hushed her, letting his fingers run up and down her spine. "Good girl. Be quite now." Her curses subsided to whimpers which after a few short moments dissipated, and she was silent again, except from her harsh breathing.
"Now, your punishment begins." He moved away from her again and she laid her cheek back down against the blankets. Seconds later she felt the first lick of the small leather whip against her rump. "I would like you to count my dear. All the way to thirty. If you miss one, or loose count we will begin again."
She nodded quickly, and managed to speak. "One, Sir." He hit her again. "Two, Sir." Halfway through she let out a quiet sob. The pain was horrible, but tolerable, but she couldn't help but cry. "Twenty-nine, Sir." Her throat was corded with the urge to scream.
Her thick wetness dripped from her pussy, coating her inner thighs in the heady arousal. The final strike came in contact with her bare pussy. Her hips bucked and her whole body jerked. "Thirty, Sir." Her voice was just barely a whisper. The pain was so powerful. Her head was swimming, she couldn't see anything all she could hear was a loud static in her ears, and his breathing.
"You handled your punishment well, Love. I think you deserve a reward, what do you think?"
"Yes, please Sir. A reward would be greatly appreciated." The bed shifted as he climbed up behind her.
"Can you hold out for me this time? Not come until I tell you to?" She nodded quickly.
"Yes Sir. I will obey you sir. "
"If you don't we'll have to go to sixty next time."
"I will obey you sir!" Amy cried, not wanting to displease him.
"Good girl, you will come when I tell you to, and not before." Then without another word he entered her dripping went passage, and began to move quickly, grunting at the feel of her tight pussy gripping his throbbing cock.
He let his hands rub and knead her ass, occasionally slapping his palm against it, causing her to buck. Then he fixed his eyes on the plug. Bright pink, a color that fit her personality so well. He used one hand to grip the base and began to pull it out slowly before pushing it back in.
Her inner walls clenched and she bucked. The reaction pleased him so he repeated it, again and again, until he heard her saying something quietly, over and over. "Speak up Love."
"Please let me come! Please I want to come!" She threw her head back and pushed her hips into his.
"Not yet."
"Please!" She wailed. His hips thrust continuously against hers, his cock disappearing into her dripping passage over and over.
One of his hands slid over her hips, up her back, then back down, before curling around to manipulate her clit. She shrieked, and nearly came at the contact.
"Keep begging." He grunted feeling his own end drawing near. He pushed deeper, barely slipping out an inch before thrusting in again. His pelvis pushed against the plug deeper.
Her pleading ran together, incoherent words left her mouth as she felt the swirling growing in her belly, her inevitable orgasm teasing her, tempting her to come without permission.
"Come." He whispered in her ear and she cried loudly. Her body jerked and convulsed, her pussy clenched around his cock, squeezing and milking him as he came spurting inside of her body. Their orgasms seemed to last for hours, he kept his fingers on her clit, trying to keep her coming, to keep her on that edge, to keep her pussy clenching on his dick. The twitching of her inner muscles was intoxicating.

Spanish Bull
Jim Burroway
December 30th, 2007
Do you recognize this?
"Padre abraza tu hijo ahora que puedes, porque si no mañana quizá lo abrazará otro hombre."
A Protestant minister in Spain, Marcos Zapata, made that statement at at seminar "How to Raise Heterosexual Children." In English, it's "Father hug your son now while you can, because if not, tomorrow another man will." — a paraphrase of Joseph Nicolosi's standard stump speech. Not only is NARTH going international, but it looks like Exodus International is living up to its name as well. This article indicates that Zapata has been well inculcated in the language of Exodus. Spanish gay rights activists have asked the Galicia regional government to investigate.

MDC suspected that blue catfish Ictalurus furcatus and flathead catfish Pylodictis olivaris were being heavily exploited by anglers in 55,600 acre Harry S. Truman
Reservoir in west-central Missouri. A reward tag study was initiated in 2004 to determine angler exploitation rates for both species.
Detailed information on the level of wood harvested from Missouri's forests is necessary for intelligent planning and decision making in wood procurement, forest resources management, and forest industry development. Likewise, researchers need current forest industry and industrial roundwood information for planning projects. In the spring of 2013 the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) undertook a detailed census of primary wood processors throughout the state, asking for information on their firms from 2012.
The intent of sign stations and archer observations are to monitor trends. While not capable of determining population size, these monitoring efforts provide valuable information on population trends.
Sign station indices can detect large changes in furbearer populations at low cost relative to other methods. The surveys use 36-inch diameter circles of sifted soil, set up every 0.3 miles along shoulders of gravel roads. Within each station is a scent attractant disc. Stations are set up in a day and checked the next day for presence of animal tracks. We use sign station surveys to collect trend data for 8 terrestrial furbearer species.
Since 1983 we have conducted annual surveys of wildlife populations via the archer's diary survey. Each fall, several thousand archery deer and turkey hunters keep daily sighting records for furbearers, other small game animals, deer, and turkeys. This group provides an important monitoring service and enables us to track population indices and range expansion of select terrestrial species. We use the number of sightings of each species divided by the total number of hours hunted to calculate a sighting rate. Rates are expressed as the number of sightings per 1,000 hours hunted.
MDC protects and manages Missouri's fish, forest, and wildlife resources. We also facilitate your participation in resource-management activities, and we provide opportunities for you to use, enjoy and learn about nature. Read more about our mission.

|Post Mortem
|Dustin Lee Abraham
|Richard J. Lewis
|Original Airdate
|November 9, 2006
Post Mortem is the seventh episode of season seven in CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
When an elderly woman is murdered, the CSIs look to the neighbor and nephew as possible suspects. Mid-investigation, Grissom receives an exact miniature replica of the current crime scene, changing his thinking on the crime.
Meanwhile, Greg faces an angry courtroom when he attends a hearing to ascertain his culpability in the death of a teenager he accidentally killed while defending himself against a mob.
- The title of this episode means "after death," can refer to both cases. The miniature crime scene arrived after the death of the victim, as opposed to the previous crime and the inquest was about and held after the death of Demetrius James.
- The event that Greg's trial relates to is from the earlier Season 7 episode "Fannysmackin'."
- When the woman first falls through the glass, she obviously breaks it all, toward the bottom of the window. Then her position changes and there is cracked glass in place. We then see several more shots of the dead woman, none of which have matching blood spatter or position of her body.
- When Greg is asked to read the transcript of his radio report of the incident, it's not pointed out that dispatch advised Greg to wait for backup. Since departmental policy was called into question, this might have been a relevant point.
- Greg (to Sofia): This isn't a trial, it's a circus.
- Sofia: Yeah, starring the mother.
- Greg: I feel like I should say something?
- Sofia: Like what?
- Greg: I don't know.
- Sofia: Sorry? You're gonna apologize to the mother of a guy who beat one man to death and was tryin' to do the same to you? That's as good as saying you're guilty and setting yourself up for one hell of a civil suit besides. You did nothing wrong.
- Greg: I just wanna be able to sleep again.
- Sofia: We put ourselves in harms way every single day and sometimes we pay one hell of a price for surviving it. Other people will never understand that.
- (While Grissom is studying the miniature crime scene when Hodges enters the room)
- Hodges (to Grissom): I know that look. You just figured something out. (looks in the mini replica) This is much better than the dead rock star kitchen. The whole al fresco thing. Come on, share, please?
- Grissom: Look carefully at the back of the doll and the pillow on the back of the chair. There appears to be remnants of glue on both.
- Hodges: So the doll was originally glued to the back of the chair.
- Grissom: I think that the killer expected the victim to die in this chair.
- Hodges: Well, if that's the case how did the killer expect to...kill her?
- (During Greg's court hearing)
- Juror (to Doc Robbins): So this was a death at the hands of another?
- Doc Robbins: Yes.
- Juror: And what do you call that kind of death?
- Doc Robbins (sighs and pauses): A homicide. (looks over at Greg)
- Valerie Nichols (after the jury ruled the case excusable): Excusable. You see, excusable is a lawful act with no intention to kill. Justifable means that the action was the only alternative. That's what they should have found.
- Greg: It's okay. I think they may have it right.

Tens of thousands of students are strapped down or physically restrained in school. Disability advocates hope that a new Education Department report detailing the practice of "seclusion and restraint" will spur federal action to curtail it.
The report reveals that 70 percent of students subjected to the techniques have disabilities. It was released by the department's civil rights arm for the first time.
Secluding and restraining kids is controversial, and there are no federal standards on its use in schools.
The American Association of School Administrators says using these techniques as a last resort in volatile situations protects students and faculty from physical harm.
They say it also keeps some children in schools who might otherwise go into residential institutions.
Advocates say the use has led to abuse.

Folsom teen Lydia Eldridge headed to South Africa on missions trip
By: Margaret Snider, Telegraph Correspondent
Lydia Eldridge, 16, of Folsom has traveled abroad before. Several years ago her soccer team competed in England. Last summer she went to South Africa on a mission trip with a Christian organization. She will leave for another two week South African mission at the end of December. "When you first get to South Africa you go into this really new, fancy airport," said Lydia, "so it's not all that different. "Then we were driving in the dark, so we couldn't really see anything. You wake up, and you're taking this drive to the place where we're going, and you're in Africa, it looks like Africa. And then you go to this place that's like out of poverty and it's culture shock." The trip is mostly a Gospel-sharing experience, a chance to talk to people from a different culture, to give service where possible. "I think it's really important that people do something with their lives instead of just living comfortably," Lydia said. "It's not comfortable to go to Africa and take freezing cold showers and go out in the mud and dirt, but it's really worth it. There's so much more to your life when you go out and help other people. Like giving a blanket to this person you'd think wouldn't be a huge deal, but they're in tears because it's freezing cold and they don't have enough to keep their children warm at night." Eldridge still needs to raise a little less than $2,000, and is confident she can do it. She first learned about the mission to South Africa at an Acquire the Fire event put on for teens by Global Expeditions, an organization formed by Ron and Katie Luce of Texas in the 1980s. Jeremy Steiner, Programs Operations Director for the organization, has been on a previous South African trip and described a typical day. He went to Diepsloot whereas Lydia went to a refugee camp at Msawawa, near Johannesburg. Msawawa was considered a small "squatter camp," having only around 5,000 inhabitants. "We get up in the morning, have our quiet time, have breakfast, and then we load a bus and go into those slums," Steiner said. "One of the areas that we work with a lot is called Diepsloot and then once we go into Diepsloot all the team leaders will break up into individual groups, less than five, that actually go hut to hut talking about God, and offering acts of service." The process is well organized. Oriana Meyerhoeffer, who works for the organization in Texas, is an Encouragement Representative, and has been Lydia's contact with the organization once she made the decision to go. Meyerhoeffer has helped her through the application, paperwork and fund-raising processes. The levels of leadership for a trip are: Project director at the top level, team leaders (one male and one female) who travel with the group, and missionary advisers who work directly with a smaller group of teens. "We try to keep that ratio (of teens to adults) at 5 to 1," Meyerhoeffer said. The result of a missions trip can be profound not only on those served, but also on the teens who go. "They could take away as much as a life change," Steiner said. Lydia said she has also learned the importance of attitude toward your circumstances. "It's not really the circumstances that matter, it's how you look upon it," she said. "Like these kids who grew up there, they're perfectly happy. They don't know any different. Then you have children in America who want more and more and more and they're not happy. So it definitely helps you appreciate what you have." Lydia's mother Deanne "Deedee" Eldridge has been through this before. "My oldest daughter went on a missions trip when she was 15," Deedee Eldridge said. "So she sort of broke the ice about my kids leaving me and going overseas. And my second daughter went to some really hard crime areas in Mexico. … The hardest thing is letting your kids go anywhere."

Woman with Gun Arrested at California Airport

The unidentified woman, said to be in her 40s, was going through airport security on her way to a Southwest Airlines flight. The gun was spotted in her bag by the
(For those who are wondering, airline passengers are allowed to fly with firearms, provided they are unloaded, checked and in a hard-sided case.)
Upon further inspection of the bag, officers found a .357 Magnum containing five rounds. The woman was arrested for possession of a concealed weapon.
Just the day before a United Airlines employee was accidentally shot in the leg while trying to check a passenger's rifle.

"The TSA says it confiscates an average of two guns daily at airport checkpoints."
With a 70% failure rate that means an average of over 6 guns a day make it past the checkpoint. Seem to me that if all this contraband is being smuggled by terrorists, then we would have a significant number of shootings on planes daily.
I wonder if all the added press about catching contraband in the posession of people who do not represent a threat is supposed to make me comfortable with WBI and "enhanced" patdowns, but then again this story like the rest indicates that the contraband was stopped by measures in place before the introduction of WBI and "enhanced" patdowns. I will continue to boycott flying until this experiment with the removal of individual rights runs its course and the people of this nation figure out that this is not making us safer. I guess if you believe that the terrorists attacked us because they "hate our freedom", then the DHS and TSA are protecting us by removing the freedoms the terrorists hate.

Madera County has, from time to time, drawn several movie stars out of Hollywood to its hill country. Henry Fonda, John Candy and Dan Akroyd are just a few that come to mind from the past few years. They sought out Madera County to make movies and then returned to Southern California.
There was, however, at least one Hollywood celebrity who came here, not to make a movie, but to satisfy a thirst "to go out and find a piece of land in the country, then build it into the kind of place," he wanted it to be. His name was Barton MacLane.
My clearest memory of Barton MacLane comes from his television role of General Martin Peterson in "I Dream of Jeannie," but he had a long acting career that spanned four decades and included more than 50 movies and 20 television shows.
A few of MacLane's film credits include "The Maltese Falcon," "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre," and "The Glenn Miller Story."...

Adjust screen brightness from command line
Sep 28, 2009 - Leave a Comment
Here's a handy little command line utility that lets you set the screen brightness from the command line. It's precompiled but the source code is available here if you are interested to see it. Once you have the precompiled binary in your path, just type something between brightness 0 (min) and 1 (max) to set it. Handy for us who live in the Terminal!

Lady Gaga Open to Having Threesome with Boyfriend Taylor Kinney
Lady Gaga says she's still in love with boyfriend Taylor Kinney — but she's not opposed to adding another person into the mix.
The 27-year-old pop star appeared on Howard Stern's show on November 12 and admitted that she wouldn't have a problem with having a threesome with Taylor, according to Us Weekly.
"That sounds like fun!" the singer — who has identified herself as bisexual — says about having a threesome with another woman.
So would she really have a threesome if Taylor wanted one? "To be fair, he has stuck it out with me for a very long time through drug habits and all those sorts of things," Gaga says more seriously. "So he's a really lovely, amazing person."
"And he also doesn't care about me being famous," Gaga adds. "I'm not famous to him, I'm his baby."
Howard wants to know if this means that she and the hunky Chicago Fire actor have actually already had a threesome. "You know what, I've spoken a lot about my Taylor and... I don't want to kiss and tell too much," she demurs. "I'm a little bit more of a lady than that."
"I'm not the type of person that's having sex all the time with lots of random people," she explains. "I don't do that. I'm in a monogamous relationship, we're having a good time, we've been together awhile... If it were to come up, it comes up."
We appreciate that Gaga is so open about her relationship. But do you think a threesome is a bad idea, or do you think they should try it out?

Walk Through Crowds
From Wired How-To Wiki
Soccer players know the secret of predicting where to go as they navigate around other humans, but the rest of us are dummies.
At least that seems to be the case with most of the people you'd encounter at Grand Central Station -- the universal metaphor for "busy place." The great room at Grand Central Terminal (as it is more accurately known) is really, really crowded during the morning and evening rush hours. Dozens of platforms and stairways empty out onto a single area. Static lines form at ticket booths and extend deep into space, creating impenetrable walls of humans.
Such places are an Aberdeen Proving Ground for honing your walking-through-a-crowd techniques. If you don't live in a city with a big transit terminal, you can use these methods at a concert, a festival or during peak hours at the local farmers' market.
Watch Where You Walk
The brain is a magnificent real-time instrument and can detect myriad patterns in the trajectory, bearing and speed of the bipeds around simply by watching their feet. Put your eyes on the problem, and the body takes over, as if on autopilot.
When driving, you know the feeling when you take your eyes off the road, even for a millisecond? Your feet and hands no longer know what to do. Walking is less dangerous, but the principle is the same: Keep your eyes on the road.
Look Down
To get on autopilot, pedestrian-style, look down at the feet of the people around you. The head and torso are lagging indicators and often give you bad information with regards to the speed and direction people are traveling. All that information is in the feet.
- Don't look directly forward. Your gaze is generally perpendicular to your body, usually 90 degrees. Reduce that angle, making it tighter as your space becomes more crowded.
- Be aware of how crowded your "personal zone" is -- use a 6-foot radius as a rule of thumb. Less than six people isn't too crowded, so move as you would normally, but watch people's feet as they enter your zone.
- If there are six people within your zone, that's a crowd and you should be looking down at all times. Gaze at the floor about 6 feet ahead.
- If there are 10 or more people in your zone, look almost straight down, between 1 and 2 feet ahead. At this density, you will be in full defensive mode, moving forward overall but tacking and spurting, slowing down and speeding up as you go.
- Evade, don't invade. Change direction often to slip behind people rather than rushing to cut them off.
We tend to instinctively look in the direction we are going, so initially, it might seem awkward and even perilous to be looking almost straight down. You might also look a little ridiculous perhaps -- maybe not so much anymore now that people are constantly texting as they walk.
But if you give yourself up to the force, you will get through a crowd effortlessly. You should almost never need to stop, and amazingly will almost never even brush up against anyone.
Walk Deliberately
Body language says a lot, and nothing says "I have the right of way" like somebody on a mission to get from point A to point B.
Avoid eye contact. And don't apologize, either. You'll only end up ceding ground once you become awash with guilt. Don't be rude, just keep moving forward like you have a purpose and avoid social interaction. If you must be polite, a simple mantra of "Excuse me, pardon me" is fine. But remember: eyes down.
Employ "The Shark Fin." If you're navigating a standing crowd, like at a concert, use a simple directional signal. Bring one hand up, close to your chest, just below eye level. Point your fingers in front of you, shaping your hand like a paddle. As you move, you can use this to indicate where you're heading. When people see it, they'll understand that you're on the move and you aren't trying to simply squeeze in front of them and block their view. More often than not, they will let you slip by. This also serves as a cue for folks to move their beverage of choice safely out of your path.
Touch Their Shoulders Every once in a while you will get stuck behind some folks facing away from you. Touch them lightly on the shoulder or shoulder blade. Humans instinctively avoid this kind of touch and will either move out of your way, apologizing to you, or turn side on to let you past. Expect this and keep moving. Do not stop and engage no matter what they do.
Advanced Techniques
Use a motivational prop. In certain contexts a more obvious motivational "prop" may be effective. When strolling through the crowded underground passageways at Canary Wharf during lunch time, I will often sport a tightly-rolled copy of the New Yorker and hold it tightly in a fist at my side. When doing this, swing your arm naturally but in an obvious way, so that other pedestrians see the magazine. It will quickly occur to them that walking into that little rod might not be pleasant, and as a result they will often give you a wider berth than they might have.
Put your shoulder into it. Sometimes it comes down to this: You're working your way through a crowd to get somewhere quickly. All of a sudden, there's someone up ahead who doesn't like how presumptuous you appear to be as you use your basic crowd-navigating techniques. They're showing all the signs of refusing to cooperate or choose an obvious side so as to let you go through quickly. What to do? As you grow nearer to them, straighten your body upright and then swivel a bit so that your shoulder is now in front as you walk. Don't just turn, feel the mass of your body get behind that shoulder.
This will do two things for you: The first will be to send a visual signal that you do not want to play games. They can choose a side to walk on and you will go where they don't, but if they will not readily let you pass then you will shoulder them out of the way. Most gamers in this context will move aside and let you pass.
The other thing this does is set you up for the rare case that someone refuses to acknowledge your desire to get by and continues to walk straight down a narrow passage way, expecting you to somehow magically disappear. If you put that shoulder into it properly and they do not waver, then go on ahead and let them bounce of that shoulder. Your weight and that shoulder will move them out of the way with minimal interruption to yourself, and set the gamer/hater staggering to the side. Try to suppress commentary or laughter and do not look backwards to see if they want a confrontation.
Imply eye contact. Some types of crowds may require alternate techniques. While the aforementioned tactics may work amongst a group of commuters heading home, trying to navigate a street packed with holiday shoppers or distracted tourists is another matter. To arrest the attention of a wandering dawdler who is clearly oblivious to your approach, try staring directly at the crown of his/her head. Humans have an innate ability to sense when someone is looking at them, and your stare will trigger that response, causing them to look back at you. Upon realizing that you are not staring at them, but beyond them, they will often move aside.

text: If the batteries run out while you are riding, it can be risky if you are riding in the dark without functioning tail light. So is there a way (beside using fairly new batteries) to know the tail light is no longer lit while you are on the saddle? Actually not just the batteries, but whatever reason making the tail light stop functioning (maybe it fell on the road). I tried looking at the mirror but it doesn't show the light.

We had the Coulter OTA in our shop for the last few years and never had the opportunity to do anything with it until this passed Winter when we made the time to finally dust it off and devise a plan. I had some surplus STS components in the shop from our initial run last Spring that weren't going to any use either, so with the addition of a new aluminum tube we were able to mount the original Coulter optics (primary and secondary mirrors) into a tube assembly that is more portable and will allow the primary mirror to reach ambient temperature in a reasonable amount of time versus the stock Coulter mirror cell which essentially "entombed" the mirror in the tube.
We also had both mirrors recoated by Majestic Optical Coatings before they were remounted into the new OTA. The standard aluminum coatings (91%) over coated with SiO, were donated to this build by Jeff Decker, owner of Majestic Optical.
Attached is a picture of me with the scope to give a sense of size of the scope. It's really short for me, but will be perfect for the munchkin that wins it in the raffle! More pictures are available in our DropBox Gallery for it:
And thanks to Alan Traino for suggesting this scope for the KIDS raffle instead of the regular raffle!

Domino's invites customers to market their own pizza
The role of marketing Domino's pizzas will be handed to the very people who eat the product following the launch today of Pizza Mogul.
The initiative will see consumers invited to devise their own pizza, name it, share their creation on social channels and sell them. Every sale will earn the creator between 25c and $4.50 per pizza, depending on the number of toppings.
The pizzas will be also available on the Domino's website.
Domino's MD Don Meij told Mumbrella: "It's the most amount of control a brand has relinquished to customers since Facebook launched but a like or a re-tweet doesn't equal a sale and it's no guarantee people are buying."
Domino's has launched a website and app that allows people to sign up and become Pizza Moguls. Meij described it as the next wave of social retailing, and branded it "me-tailing".
Meij described the project as the "ultimate fusion of social media and e-commerce in a trend".
"Mogul provides the vehicle for Domino's to utilise social selling as a powerful revenue and viral advertising stream. We are looking for our passionate customers, fans and followers to share their creativity with their social networks.
"Me-Tailing isn't a trend but more of a way of doing business and is the next wave of digitalisation."
From a marketing perspective, Domino's will benefit from consumers creating YouTube ads, building marketing campaigns, jingles, images, Vine videos and Snapchats, he said.
Meij said the company already receives hundreds and thousands of ideas each year which it cannot possibly introduce.
"Through Pizza Mogul we can now introduce them all. Our customers can create them and share with their own friends," he said.

Brilliant idea and execution is great too – very easy to use site.
This is why many consider Don Meij the Steve Jobs of the pizza game.
With the advent of Crust I don't have much need for Domino's anymore, but I'm still blown away by how good an idea this is. If it catches on (big if) it could completely change the industry. Meanwhile, Pizza Hut are fighting their franchisees to implement their brand new strategy of… offering basic-range pizzas at a low price as loss leaders. Visionary.
Fantastic innovation from Dominos. Well done.
Created my pizza #inyourface
Pity the website crashes. Great idea though.
It's a game changer.
Which agency? Who came up with the idea / made web site / app?
Website/App was done by Thoughtworks. Branding and creative was Elevencom.
The facebook login is a joke…..has no one tested this site?

Your Opinion: Obama's severe health care lie
Thursday, November 14, 2013
Dear Editor:
Thomas Aquinas wrote "men could not live with one another if there were not mutual confidence that they were being truthful to one another."
In the 13th century, 750 years ago, communications were intimate. No electricity, telephone, TV, loudspeakers, printing presses. If you had something to say it would be face-to-face or in a room or arena with good acoustics. Mr. Obama has been five years telling millions of nervous Americans — some face to face but most impersonally, television and radio — if you like your health insurance, you can keep your health insurance. If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. Period. He has repeated this mantra so many time that even those who have never believed his words, after hearing him announce it over and over, year after year, begin to wonder "perhaps he's telling the truth this one time." Only to find out that as initially expected, he was not telling the truth.
This president has the witching ability to recite a multiplication table so listeners would think he's a calculus professor. All the more reason Americans believed him. But reciting a multiplication table is nothing more than that, everything else is fluff; and stating and re-stating a lie doesn't transform it into truth. Christian doctrine notes that the gravity of a lie is measured: against the nature of the truth it deforms; the circumstances; the intention of the one who lies, and ; the harm suffered by its victims.
This was not a little white lie, this was a severe and circumstantial lie with severe and lasting damage to many Americans. How much damage? So far four million Americans have lost individual health insurance plans that they considered untouchable by Obamacare. How many of them are in the middle of serious health care issues? Like the stage four cancer patient who recently wrote to the Wall Street Journal having lost her health provider and her team of doctors. Some predictions go as high as 80 million Americans losing their employee provided health insurance by 2016, health insurance plans purchased by free Americans and free businesses in our free-market economy. This is not "socialized medicine." Socialism is the government provisioning of private goods and services. This is worse. Compensation? zero. Value of the apology ? zero.
Somebody predicted Obamacare would be a national poison pill. It's working.

A while ago I injured my lower back deadlifting (posted form video here). The pain still hadn't completely gone away recently so I went to doc and got an X-ray, and turns out my L5 and S1 parts of the spine are fused together which would explain why that video shows the maximum arch I can get in my lower back.
I recently started trying to get back into deadlifting and even with paying extreme attention to my form and wearing a belt I have done the same damn thing again.
I was wondering if anyone had any experience with deadlifting around this type of thing, or know of any adjustments that can be made to continue deadlifting, or even if deadlifts is something I should stay away from? I seem to be able to romanian deadlift ok but I just can't seem to conventional deadlift any more
Also in that video I can't get my hips much lower as I just get pulled straight back into that position since the center of gravity is out, which I'm starting to think is because I can't have my back as upright as most people due to the spinal fusion

The Performance and Accountability Report for Fiscal Year 2006 (Report) provides meaningful stewardship, program and financial information about the Department of State. Publication of the Report is an integral part of our efforts to improve our accountability to our customers, constituents, and the public. It is our opportunity to review in a comprehensive manner, the many challenges we face today around the globe and what the Department is doing to address them. As you read the Report, you will learn of the exceptional accomplishments of the Department's highly dedicated staff as they seek to meet to the Department's mission to "create a more secure, democratic and prosperous world for the benefit of the American people and the international community".
For the past six years, the President has challenged us to meet rigorous performance standards through the President's Management Agenda (PMA). The Department of State is committed to achieving the goals of the PMA, as evidenced by "green" status scores on the scorecard for all five USG-wide Presidential initiatives at the end of FY 2006. This is a significant accomplishment considering the challenging nature of conducting business in our global, foreign affairs environment. In addition, the Department has demonstrated innovation and leadership in performance management by streamlining performance systems, sharing lessons learned, and working together with other foreign affairs agencies to manage for results.
Very few agencies or corporations have the level of complexity and variety of challenges that the men and women of the Department face daily. The Department operates in over 260 locations in 188 countries, frequently in hostile environments, while conducting business in 150 currencies and an even larger number of languages. Thousands of financial professionals around the globe plan, budget, allocate, obligate, disburse, and account for billions of dollars in annual resources. Despite our worldwide geographic dispersion, the Department operates as one team distinguished by its dedication to strong ethics and corporate governance.
Our strong commitment to corporate governance is evidenced by the priority we place on improving our internal controls. To that end, we made considerable progress in 2006, working closely with the Independent Auditor to address the material weaknesses in accounting for personal property and information systems security reported in their FY 2005 Independent Auditor's Report. As a result, the Independent Auditor downgraded these items to a reportable condition, and reported no material weaknesses in internal controls in their FY 2006 Independent Auditor's Report. In addition, the Department committed to, and fully implemented, the requirements of Appendix A, Internal Control over Financial Reporting, of OMB Circular A-123. During the implementation of Appendix A, we identified a material weakness related to accounting for real property, and took actions to resolve the deficiencies by September 30, 2006.
Unfortunately, due to the complexity of the matters involved in addressing the real property deficiencies, the accelerated financial reporting requirements, and our commitment and focus to successfully resolve the material weaknesses noted above, we were unable to provide timely financial statements or documentation on the appropriateness of the associated restatement to satisfy the Independent Auditor with regard to the presentation of real property in time to meet the November 15, 2006 deadline required by OMB. As a result and as more fully explained in the Independent Auditor's Report, the Independent Auditor issued a disclaimer of opinion on our FY 2006 and restated FY 2005 financial statements. Since then, with the cooperation of the Independent Auditor and OIG, our efforts continued, and the Department satisfied the Independent Auditor about the amounts presented and have therefore received an unqualified ("clean") opinion thereon, dated December 12, 2006.
The scale and complexity of the Department's missions that demand effective financial management and control have grown exponentially since 9/11, making the need for more effective financial management even more pronounced. Operating in this environment of expanding mission requirements and significant Federal budget deficits, the pressure to operate more efficiently and reduce costs has never been greater. The hallmark of top financial operations is their ability to not only provide accurate and timely financial data but also to use that data and expertise to provide high-value financial advice to the key decision-makers. The Bureau of Resource Management has built the foundation of solid budgeting and reporting; our mission going forward will be to combine this strong financial information base with a high level of financial advisory expertise as a strategic partner to the Secretary and the Bureaus, to ensure that the Department obtains maximum results from its funding. Congress and the American people should expect nothing less.

Over one year has passed since "emergency response" legislation was enacted by the Federal government in the Northern Territory. A raft of measures has been implemented as part of this intervention, including welfare quarantining, the suspension of the racial discrimination act and increased police powers in prescribed areas. While there are certainly examples of successful women leaders in Aboriginal communities, the NT intervention has undermined and castrated their capacity for leadership. Furthermore, this assimilation-based approach to Aboriginal affairs in Australia gives little hope that indigenous people will achieve self-determination and be supported in leadership of their own communities.

Mentoring has been shown to be beneficial in many career fields, including medicine. A systematic review has shown that mentorship in academic medicine increases personal and career development and research productivity (1). However, mentoring may not always be a positive experience, particularly for women. In the field of medicine, men are three times as likely as women to describe having a mentor as a positive experience that influenced their careers, and women doctors perceive that it is more difficult for them to find a mentor than for men to find one (1). Optimising the mentoring process is important. Specifically, access to mentoring and optimising the experience of mentorship are important goals.

Confidence is a subjective, emotional state of mind. It is about being comfortable in your own skin, and reassured enough to act. It comes from the balance of believing in yourself, mastering your fears, and understanding what you want, and then what you're prepared to do to get it.

"Politics is more difficult than physics." –Albert Einstein
No matter how many years of training you have or how excellent your clinical skills are, physicians who lack political skills will not reach their potential. Unless you're a solo practitioner, the only way to avoid organizational politics is to avoid people. Refusing to participate will you keep you on the sidelines, watching your aspirations evaporate.

You probably do more writing as a physician/ researcher than you thought you would ever do when you took that pesky freshman composition class. As you now know, the process of writing requires great attention to detail whether you are writing an interoffice memo or a research article. It is true that the beginning of a good journal article is good science with rigorous methods, but the science will not be conveyed to the research community or the general public without clear writing.

Guerra was heavily intoxicated, according to officers, and was arrested and taken to jail to prevent him from getting hit by a car.
Guerra gave officers several variations of his name and birth date and was briefly combative as he was taken into custody...

Community scenes, local stage productions and glimpses of places a world away.
Fulton photographer Bob Pauley has been capturing the world around him through a camera lens for decades, and that work will be on display in the Mildred Cox Gallery on the William Woods University campus Feb. 11 through March 10 as part of a an exhibit that has been 12 years in the making.
An artist's reception will be held in the Gladys Woods Kemper Center for the Arts from 1-4 p.m. on Feb. 11.
Pauley, who has a degree in photojournalism from the University of Missouri School of Journalism, is a former sports editor for The Fulton Sun and a wedding photographer, said in a press release he started trying to pool together a lifetime of photographs in 2000, "but I just kept procrastinating."
Photos in the exhibit include images captured while Pauley was stationed in Germany during the Vietnam War, pictures taken at events around the community and pictures from a number of shows performed at William Woods University — he has taken photos of the plays at WWU since 1981.
"Back in the day, everything was done in black and white. I used to have to come to the show one night to shoot in black and white, and come back another night to shoot in color to have both," Pauley said in the release. "Nowadays everything is digital, so all I have to do is push a button to make it black and white."
The lifelong photographer said, "I don't hunt for pictures, I just take them when I see them."
