text: By Jan RahnManaging Editor Veterans, spouses, friends, neighbors, students and school personnel occupied bleacher seats at Perkins County High School on Monday morning to honor those who have served and fought for our country's freedom. "I am a patriot—a patriot is defined as one who loves and zealously supports one's own country," said the program speaker, John Long of Grant, to an audience that included several solemn, and at times teary, veterans. "Some people are veterans, some people are patriots, some people are both—sadly some people are neither," said Long. His speech began midway into the morning's 56th annual observance of Veterans Day hosted by American Legion Post 270 of Venango. The advancement and posting of colors, invocation by Rev. Wayne Pick and reciting of the Pledge of Allegiance set the tone for patriotism, which increased as the program got underway. Members of the high school band under the direction of Sheila Johnson played the National Anthem. Perkins County American Legion Commander Kurt Hatteberg's welcome and introductions followed. Auxiliary president Betsy Marquardt introduced the Boys and Girls Staters. Sharing a patriotic essay as last year's Perkins County Schools' Voice of Democracy winner was Kaleb Gaar on the theme, "Pride in Serving in Our Military." Following one minute of silence for deceased veterans, Long delivered an important message about Americans living their lives the best way they can because they've been awarded life and freedom by those who sacrificed theirs. Long, who is of the Vietnam War era, is not himself a vet, but comes from a lineage of veterans who served their country. Long spoke of what it was like in the late 60s when young people were drafted into the military through a lottery drawing. Long was in college, his number was not drawn, but he felt sorry for those who were unlucky enough to have to enter the military and fight in Vietnam. When Long returned to Grant in 1974 there were 29 World War I veterans still living. He said in 1990 he, as funeral director, buried the last of that era, Charlie Moser. He estimated there were over 90 World War II veterans still alive at that time. "Today, I believe there are around 10—what a great generation of American men and women produced during that period, both the World War vets and their wives," said Long. Long recapped the plot from the movie, "Saving Private Ryan," released near the time of his father's death over 15 years ago. His father, Bill Long, was a veteran and a patriot. In the movie, as in real life both today and in every war scene in America's history, military personnel have laid down their lives so that others can live a life of freedom. "It's truly an emotional sentiment that tells the story of a man who lived because others were willing to lay down their life for him," said Long. "We should truly value the sacrifice that has brought us our freedom—the tears were streaming down my face during that last scene as I realized that each one of us should ask that same. Maybe then, just maybe then we will truly value life and our freedom. Long asked the veterans to stand so the audience could recognize and thank them. Musical selections by the high school band under the direction of Sheila Johnson were followed by a roll call of deceased veterans over the past year and "Taps" was played by a bugler from the band, Brady Mailand. The benediction and retirement of colors ended the program, with everyone in attendance being invited to a free ham and bean feed at the Grant Legion Hall with beans furnished by Trinidad Bean Co. The lunch was hosted by the county's Legion Posts of Venango, Elsie, Madrid and Grant.

|Firearm deer season starts this weekend, MCDA permits gone, others still available
|Written by Wauneta Breeze
|Thursday, 14 November 2013 00:00

The Wauneta Breeze
Hunters are gearing up for the start of firearm and statewide buck season which begins Saturday, Nov. 16 and runs until Sunday, Nov. 24.
Game warden Dirk Greene says the outlook is "pretty good" for this year's season, with mule deer outnumbering whitetail.
Hunters should have more success with harvest nearing completion.
Greene said there are quite a few options available for deer hunters.
In the Frenchman Unit, the 1,500 Mule Deer Conservation Area (MDCA) permits sold out quickly. MDCA permit holders may harvest one of any deer, except antlerless mule deer, and one antlerless whitetail.
Sixteen hundred whitetail permits were available. As of Nov. 12, 138 permits were left. Permit holders may harvest one white tail and one antlerless whitetail deer.
For Season Choice Antlerless (SCA) permit holders, each permit allows for the harvest of two antlerless whitetails. Nine hundred and ninety-seven permits remain. Enders, Medicine Creek, Red Willow and Swanson SRA/WMA are closed to the use of SCA permits.
Hunters can visit outdoornebraska.ne.gov/hunting/guides/biggame/deer/BGdeer_permitinfo.asp for permit availability, info and quotas.
Muzzleloader season runs Dec. 1-31, but Greene reminds hunters that they can't hunt mule deer in the Frenchman Unit with muzzleloaders. Archery season runs until Dec. 31. Both still have permits remaining.
After bagging their deer, hunters may use these local check-in stations:
—Benkelman: Brad Wiese 822 C St. (308) 423-2911
—Enders: Laker's (308) 882-4011
—Hayes Center: Tom Dow 2 W 2 N Hayes Center (308) 286-3453
—McCook: Red Willow County Sheriff 502 Norris Ave. (308) 345-1850
—Trenton: Hitchcock County Sheriff Courthouse (308) 334-5444
2012 Harvest
In the Frenchman Unit, 1,666 mule deer and 1,575 whitetail deer were harvested in 2012. Two hundred fifty-one antlerless mule deer and 1,703 antlerless whitetail were also killed.
Across the state, last year's whitetail buck harvest showed the effects of Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD), going down 30 percent.
Over the past three years, mule buck harvest has gone down 20 percent. The Game and Parks Commission believes this is due to brain worm mortality.
The Commission also states the 2012 harvest was the eighth highest on record for mule and whitetail deer combined and the number of older bucks is high.
The Frenchman Unit was one of the least impacted by EHD, according to Greene, but the Game and Parks Commission says EHD killed about a third of the whitetail population across the state in 2012. The Frenchman Unit, stating its losses to be four percent, was the only unit reporting less than 17 percent loss.
New in 2013
The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission has made changes to policies in 2013. While there were 3,900 fewer November firearm permits and 6,700 less SCA permits, 400 anterless-only permits with antlerless-only whitetail bonus tags were added to the Frenchman Unit.
The closings of Enders, Medicine Creek, Red Willow and Swanson SRA/WMAs to the use of Season Choice Antlerless permits is also new this year.
Boundaries have been expanded for Season Choice Area Frenchman West.
Rules and Regulations
—All big game hunters in Nebraska are required to have a species-specific permit for deer, antelope, elk, or mountain (bighorn) sheep.
—Except for residents younger than age 16 and residents who hold veteran or 69 or older senior permits, all big game hunters also are required to have a Nebraska Habitat Stamp.
—A Nebraska hunt permit is not required for big game. A big game permit is valid only for the species-specific season, weapon and unit or area for which it is issued and may not be exchanged for another permit. Permits are not transferable or refundable.
—The minimum age to hunt with a deer permit is 10 years. Youth age 10-15 may hunt with a youth deer permit. Youth may apply for a draw unit permit at age 9 provided they are age 10 by the start of the season. Youth age 16 may hunt on youth deer permits provided they are age 15 when they apply and provided they are age 15 on Sept. 15 (start of the season) of the calendar year.
— No one may have more than two permits that allow the harvest of a buck.

Drew a late season archery in 2B. Don't know anything about that area. Any suggestions?
Drew a late season archery in 2B. Don't know anything about that area. Any suggestions?
Concentrate on the areas on the east side of the reservoir and near the CO line. These are walk in areas, but always hold some good deer.
B&C / P&Y Official Measurer
Congrats on the tag! The unit 2 units are good late deer units. From what I know, pray for a lot of snow in Colorado to push the big boys down into the unit from CO. Those tags are hard to get and the units hold some big deer so good luck! Like most western hunts, just be ready to put a lot of time in scouting.
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.
Genesis 27:3 (NKJV)
its a good hunt but its also a tough hunt. its hard to get close to the big bucks in the crunchy snow.
Bring your tire chains!

MOUNDSVILLE - It didn't sit well with John Marshall that Indian Creek held the top spot in the Class 5A OVAC softball standings that were released Sunday. The No. 1-ranked team in West Virginia AAA then showed the Redskins on Tuesday why they believe they're the top team in the Valley.
Amy Rotriga threw one strike after the other as she collected 12 Ks and the Monarchs blanked visiting Indian Creek, 8-0, in six innings.
''(Indian Creek was) undefeated and ranked No. 1 in the OVAC rankings,'' John Marshall coach Ed West said. ''I think the girls were ready for that.''
Article Photos
John Marshall's Amy Rotriga (18) grounds out during Tuesday's game against Indian Creek. The pitch was thrown by Creek's Paige Geanangel, who took the loss.
John Marshall certainly showed they were ready as Jackie Gellner and Kylie Howard both crossed the plate in the bottom of the first as the Monarchs (14-3) took a early 2-0.
JM went right back at it in the second when a Rotriga double brought in Athena Sayrie and Morgan Watson blasted one deep into left field the next at-bat to help Rotriga cross home, too.
It was three up and three down for the Redskins (6-1) in the third, while John Marshall cashed in two more runs to make it 6-0.
The game went scoreless in the fourth and fifth before Howard hit an inside-the-park homer and Sayrie scored off a hit by Rotriga.
''We've been playing really well,'' West said. ''(Tuesday) we were clicking on all cylinders. We had some timely hitting, some good pitching, some good defense, good base running and that equals 8-0.''
Rotriga continued to have a stellar week as the senior has stuck out 24 batters the past two days.
''She's been pitching really well. I mean really, really well,'' West pointed out. ''(This) performance is just typical the ways she's been throwing the past couple weeks.''
In the visitors dugout, Redskins coach Angie Penner was saying the same thing.
''Amy pitched a dominant game,'' she said. ''There were no surprises. When we came down here, we knew it would be a tough game. I'm kind of disappointed because our defense had some errors behind us and I know that we're better than that.''
Paige Geanangel, another All-OVAC pitching standout, took the loss for the Redskins and also had two of the team's three hits.
''We've got a good hitting team,'' West said. ''I know she's a good pitcher. We played her last year and hit her pretty good at Indian Creek, so, coming in, the way the girls are playing, we expect to get some runs and play some good defense and good pitching.
''As long as we keep playing good ball, we'll be a tough team to beat.''

If you had a chance to reduce the budget deficit, how would you do it?
A California group has a way to give the average citizen a chance to say what they would do if they were in charge.
It's the brainchild of Next 10,a nonpartisan nonprofit dedicated to educating Californians on issues for their state.
But they also want Americans to know what's involved in our nation's fiscal policy and created a web-based "game" for that purpose
The Federal Budget Challenge uses information from the Congressional Budget Office and takes users through a variety of fiscal policy that can influence the country's budget over the next 10 years.
You start with a $2.3 trillion dollar deficit, then choose what programs to invest in,
make cuts from general government spending,choose one overall spending level, look at war spending, defense and security, the Affordable Care Act, Medicare and health care, and Social Security.
Next 10's founder, Noel Perry, says the goal of the Challenge is to provide "better understanding of the major budget items that are having an impact every day on the lives of Americans, so that they can be more engaged in their community, their state and the national conversation."
And that is noticeable for users who take the Challenge. There is a running tally on how your decisions are changing the deficit, and each option has nonpartisan information showing the pros,cons and potential side effects.
But the Federal Budget Challenge doesn't delve too deep into the details facing the federal government.
"We're looking at larger numbers,we're not looking at $5 million items, or $90 million items. If we were to get that detailed, it would be very long and I think it would be difficult and less attractive for people to go in and work on the budget," Perry tells NBC Montana.
Those interested in taking the Federal Budget Challenge can follow this link http://federal.budgetchallenge.org

Simulation of an Electromagnetic Sounding Method for Oil Prospecting
Application ID: 8607
The marine controlled source electromagnetics method (CSEM) for oil prospecting has emerged as a promising technique during recent years. This model demonstrates one variant of it. It uses a mobile horizontal 1 Hz electric dipole antenna that is towed 150 m above the sea floor. An array of sea floor receivers measure the electric field at various distances away from the antenna. When measuring at sufficiently large distance, some of the transmitted energy is reflected/guided by the resistive reservoir and results in a higher received signal than if no reservoir were present.

X-rays use a small dose of radiation to create pictures of the inside of the body.
X-rays can be taken of any part of the body. They are especially good for looking at injuries to bones.
X-rays can also be used to:
An x-ray uses radiation to make images. The low levels of radiation from a single x-ray will not affect most people. If you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant talk to your doctor before the x-ray. Radiation may be harmful to developing babies.
Before your x-ray is taken, you may be asked to remove jewelry and put on a hospital gown.
Let your doctor know if you are pregnant.
A lead shield may be placed on parts of your body that are not being x-rayed. This will help reduce your exposure to radiation.
The x-ray device will be placed over the part of your body being studied. You will be asked to remain as still as possible while the images are taken. The x-ray device will send x-rays through your body. The x-rays will be captured on the other side of your body by a computer or on film.
You will be able to resume your daily activities after the x-ray is complete.
A few minutes
The x-ray will be sent to a radiologist. A report will be sent to you and/or your doctor.
Call your doctor if you have any questions or concerns.
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Matthew Lawlyes
Matthew Lawlyes Matthew Lawlyes, a Liberal Studies major, interned with the Project in Spring 2011. Fulfilling a requirement within the Liberal Studies curriculum, Matthew attended a speech given by Dr. Larry Golden and Bill Clutter. This first introduction to the Illinois Innocence Project sparked his curiosity and led him to be a volunteer with the program before doing his internship.
Matt designed his degree around substance abuse, social work, poverty, and legal studies. Once he completes law school he would like to be involved in reshaping legislative policy for substance abuse systems nationally.Interning with IIP not only gave Matthew hands on experience in legal practice, but it allowed him to actually have a direct effect upon the criminal justice system. In choosing an internship, Matthew valued the opportunity to play an important role in the evaluation and examination of wrongful conviction cases.
Shortly after Matthew's arrival, the IIP received of the Bloodsworth Grant, providing significant funding for post-conviction DNA testing. This grant has dramatically increased the number of cases the DIIP can investigate, but those cases must be thoroughly analyzed, researched, and evaluated. Matthew assisted in reviewing potentially wrongful conviction cases with the hope that his work will eventually aid in a client's exoneration. He also helped create the Intake Database that the Project currently uses to keep track of all of their intake information.
Matt studied law at the University of Minnesota Law School.

Several nights a week I watch Man vs. Food on the Food Network and I am always intrigued by the amount of food this guy puts down! Now, I am not a salad bar kind of girl, but Adam Richman, host of his interesting show, must have a fierce workout regimen! I have yet to see a show filmed in Houston so I figured I would check it out for myself. Here is a list of Man. vs. Food type challenges in the Houston area. If you are up for it, we here at Urban Swank would love to hear about it. Good luck!
1. At Mel's Country Cafe, located at 24814 Stanolind Rd. in Tomball, Texas, the challenge is to finish the infamous "Mega Mel Burger". The Mega Mel Burger is 1 1/2 pounds of fresh ground, 1 pound of bacon, 1/4 pound of American cheese, and a ton of of lettuce, tomatoes, onions & pickles.

2. Little Bitty Burger Barn, located at 5503 Pinemont Dr. in Houston, Texas, has a burger challenge as well. However, "The Double Dare", is configured a bit differently. It is comprised of eight 1/4 pound patties, eight slices of cheese, topped with bacon, jalapenos and barbecue sauce on a bun. The challenge is the finish this oversized burger in 45 minutes of less. To attempt this feat, the cost is $19.95. If you complete the challenge, your name will go on the restaurant's wall and on their website. Pretty cool.

Can you say W.O.W! To complete this challenge successfully, you must finish this monster of a sandwich with no help. The sandwich is priced at $48. And guess what their prize is...you guessed it, a free piece of cheesecake! (SMH)
4. At the Don Carlos Mexican Restaurants, located in 3 Houston locations, the check is on them if you can finish a 5 pound ground sirloin burrito with cheese, lettuce, tomato, refried beans, and rice topped with beef chili gravy. This giant is called Senior Grande', The Texas Size Burrito. Try this challenge for only $19.95. It is valid for dine in only and there is no sharing! The catch - you must down this monster in 30 minutes or less!
5. Last but not least, foodies can attempt "The Cablinasian" at. Nick's Place, located at 2713 Rockyridge in Houston, Texas. Named for 1560 AM's Sean "The Cablinasian" Pendergast, this massive calzone has over one pound of Italian sausage and pepperoni, green bell pepper, marinara, ricotta & mozzarella cheese.

I'll give my view of the frontier of computer vision and where I feel computer vision needs advances from computer science and machine learning. This will cover where computer vision works well: finding cars and faces, operating in controlled environments, and where it doesn't work well: in the uncontrolled settings of daily life. There will be a quick history object recognition. I'll list a number of computer vision problems, describe their structure, and tell where we need help.

Florida Georgia Line became the first big winners at the Country Music Associations Awards in Nashville when their hit song "Cruise" was named single of the year.
The duo, who helped Luke Bryan open the show from the Bridgestone Arena, beat out Miranda Lambert, Darius Rucker, Tim McGraw and Kasey Musgraves to win the night's first honor.
Lee Brice was also an early winner – his "I Drive Your Truck" was named Song of the Year.

Swift was also an early winner when she was named only the second artist ever to be presented with the Pinnacle Award, which recognizes musicians who have made a significant impact on the industry.

ST. LOUIS (KSDK) - It seems like the season just wrapped up, but it's already time to buy Cardinals tickets for next year.
Ten and five game ticket packs and single game all-inclusive tickets are now on sale.
Many of the ticket packages are built around special giveaways like bobbleheads and jerseys.
We clicked on the jersey package just to see what it was really all about and this is what we found: you can get tickets for as little as $158 for the cheapest seats.

SEATTLE -- It wasn't supposed to happen like this, a couple of times over.
To begin with, the Washington Redskins had flown coast-to-coast with six straight defeats in their craw, the most recent the second gut-wrencher of the year against the archrival Dallas Cowboys.
Meanwhile, the Seattle Seahawks had won consecutive games, including an upset of the powerful Baltimore Ravens two weeks earlier in their last game at always tough on visitors Century Link Field.
But then the Redskins marched 80 yards in 14 plays to score on their opening drive for the first time all season. And when the defense throttled the Seahawks early, it seemed Washington's longest losing streak in 13 years and the worst skid of coach Mike Shanahan's career was about to be history.
However, the Redskins, being the Redskins, they couldn't stand prosperity. Quarterback Rex Grossman, who had started red-hot, threw his usual couple of interceptions. Kicker Graham Gano had yet another field goal try blocked. Cornerback Josh Wilson, a former Seahawk, dropped a sure pick and committed a 44-yard pass interference penalty that set up Seattle's go-ahead score.
By the time the Seahawks expanded their margin to 10 points in the fourth quarter, it seemed the Redskins were not only in for yet another unhappy flight home, but that they were staring at a double-digit downturn what with the winning troika of the New York Jets, New England Patriots and New York Giants on tap the next three weeks.
Roy Helu's 28-yard touchdown jaunt en route to his first 100-yard day narrowed the deficit to 17-14 and showed why Shanahan should have been starting the rookie running back ahead of the woeful Ryan Torain the past few weeks.
But when Grossman's intentional grounding penalty left Washington facing third-and-19 at midfield with just 6:51 remaining, a completed comeback seemed pretty hopeless.
And yet that's when the magic began. Grossman stepped up in the pocket and hurled a perfect touchdown pass to Anthony Armstrong, who emerged from years of obscurity to rank third in the NFL in yards per catch in 2010 only to return to near-invisibility this season.
The defense, which hadn't forced a turnover or recorded a sack all afternoon, got a third-down stop, a series-ending sack on the same kind of bring the house blitz that had killed the Redskins in Week 3 in Dallas - and after Gano's 25-yard field goal that made it 23-17 - a victory-sealing interception by cornerback DeAngelo Hall, the goat of last week's loss to the Cowboys.
"When the chips were down, guys stepped up and made plays," Shanahan said.
Especially a guy who had been all but forgotten as rookies and receivers signed off the street made plays instead of him.
"It's been a long, stressful kinda season, especially losing and not being able to get on track (personally)," said Armstrong, who gained three more yards on his touchdown that he had on his five previous catches this season. "Just to be able to make a play is huge. When they called the play, I knew they were going to throw it to me. ... Rex has trust in me, regardless of how things have been going (as Grossman confirmed shortly thereafter). He threw me a great ball, gave me an opportunity to make a play on it."
Go figure, but then go figure Washington's entire late comeback.
"No one was thinking we can't lose seven (straight)," said a grinning Hall, who a week earlier said he should be cut for being beaten for 26 yards to set up the Cowboys' winning field goal in overtime. "We just had to get a win."
And that's what they did, the hard way, in the same spot where both of their playoff seasons in this century ended and on the fourth anniversary of the tragic day that they lost 24-year-old star safety Sean Taylor in a burglary turned murder.
"Finishing strong like that is the key to wins and losses," said nose tackle Barry Cofield. "Last week we had some opportunities and we didn't get it done. The only thing that can get that taste out of your mouth is going out there and doing it and that's what we did. It was a great way to finish the game and hopefully we can carry it on for the rest of the season."
WUSA-9's Redskins Insider, David Elfin, has covered sports since he was a junior at Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School in 1975. He is the Washington representative on the Pro Football Hall of Fame selection committee and is the author of five books on the Redskins including the new "Washington Redskins: The Complete Illustrated History."

The Borg, The Draft And Dana Milbank
I was fortunate enough to spend several years as an officer in The United States Army Reserve. You could say I was a nice enough guy, but never quite made it to Colonel.* Even given that somewhat limited background, I feel I learned sufficiently what an army does well and what an army should not be used for. Suffice it to say that the true purpose of an Army is to blow up our nation's enemies or be powerful enough to command the respect of others to the point where they check their animosity towards us at the door. An army is not an institution that should ever be used for social engineering. Thus, a recent article by Dana Milbank** had me imagining an American version of Pinochet. Milbank opines below:

As I make my rounds each day in the capital, chronicling our leaders' plentiful foibles, failings, screw-ups, inanities, outrages and overall dysfunction, I'm often asked if there's anything that could clean up the mess….But there is one change that, over time, could reverse the problems that have built up over the last few decades. We should have mandatory military service for all Americans, men and women alike, when they turn 18. The idea is radical, unlikely and impractical — but it just might work.

Political columnist Howard Wilkinson and longtime photographer Michael Keating are among the 26 employees who are leaving The Enquirer as part of a buyout deal.
This week was the deadline for editors at the newspaper to decide whether to accept voluntary "early retirement" buyouts from employees. Although The Enquirer hasn't released any details, current and former co-workers of Wilkinson and Keating have begun discussing their departures and posting their well wishes on social media sites.
So far, CityBeat's emails sent this morning seeking comment haven't been returned.
Gregory Korte, an ex-City Hall reporter at The Enquirer who now works at USA Today, posted, "I grew up reading Howard Wilkinson's politics column in the Cincinnati Enquirer. It's one of the reasons I got into this business, and I was delighted to work and learn alongside him for so long. And Michael E. Keating? The best political photographer I've ever worked with — he could turn a podium shot into pure art. A real reporter's photographer. Now they're both taking a buyout and retiring. The Enquirer has done just fine without me, but I can't imagine it without these two."
Another former Enquirer reporter, Ben Fischer, posted, "Howard Wilkinson you're one of the all-time greats. And that goes for baseball fandom, general good guys AND political reporters. Everybody's going to miss your prose and insights this election season."
Wilkinson confirmed the news on Facebook, adding, "Thanks to one an all. It's been a great ride. But you haven't heard the last from me ... or Michael either... Michael and I were a team; and got to see and do some amazing things over the years. I will always be grateful for that."
The Gannett Co., The Enquirer's corporate owner, announced the buyout offer Feb. 9 and gave employees 45 days to decide whether to apply for the deal.
At the close of the offer period, editors reviewed applications and made final decisions; some people who apply for the deal potentially could've been turned down if their position is deemed essential to the newspaper's operation.
Under the deal, newspaper employees who are age 56 or older and have at least 20 years of service with Gannett as of March 31 are eligible. Although executives said 785 employees meet the criteria, the deal only is being offered to 665 employees "due to ongoing operational needs at the company."
Sources at The Enquirer say executives are looking to shed 26 employees at Cincinnati's only remaining daily newspaper. It is believed that 19 of the positions will come from the newsroom, while six people will be affected in the advertising department, and one person in the online/digital content department.
As part of reductions mandated by Gannett, The Enquirer has laid off about 150 workers during the past two years. Also, employees have had to take five unpaid furloughs during the past three years.
Just hours after a Swiss bank froze access today to a legal defense fund established for WikiLeaks provocateur Julian Assange, a group of hackers have shut down the bank's Web site in an escalating "infowar."
A group calling itself Operation Payback took responsibility for the Internet attack on the Swiss bank, PostFinance, via its Twitter account. "We will fire at anyone that tries to censor WikiLeaks," the group said in its announcement.
The Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber embraced the YP concept several years ago in the wake of Richard Florida's "creative class" discussion, which really hit home here because it crystallized the problem Cincinnati and other "uncool" cities face in stemming the brain drain of talented young people leaving to advance their careers elsewhere.
The Chamber created an array of programs to support local young professionals, an effort that certainly came at the behest of Procter & Gamble, Kroger, Macy's and other corporate giants here that must recruit and retain the best and the brightest talent available. Bold Fusion has emerged as one of the Chamber's highest profile efforts.
The sixth annual Bold Fusion conference was held Thursday afternoon at the Westin Hotel downtown, packing the ballroom to its 400-person capacity. It was one of the most interesting and inspiring afternoons I'd spent in a while.
Never piss off the proletariat.
Upset about his low pay and dismal working conditions, a worker at one of Facebook's Third World contractors has leaked the social media site's ultra-secret document about what type of content it censors.
Amine Derkaoui, a 21-year-old Moroccan man, worked for an outsourcing firm last year that scanned Facebook members' pages for banned content. Given Facebook's profitability, Derkaoui became angry about its stinginess with workers.
As a result, Derkaoui gave a copy of Facebook's internal guidelines about what content it will delete to Gawker, a top Internet gossip site.
Some of the forbidden items are obvious like racial slurs, depictions of human or animal mutilation, photographs or cartoons of sexual activity, violent speech and content that organizes or promotes illegal activity.
But some of the other verboten items are more unusual, if not downright strange.
For example, naked "private parts" including female nipple bulges and butt cracks are forbidden, but male nipples are allowed. The list specifically mentions "mothers breastfeeding" as unacceptable.
Also, most depictions of bodily fluids are unacceptable, but not all. It lists "urine, feces, vomit, semen, pus and ear wax" as unacceptable (yes, ear wax). But, it helpfully notes, "cartoon feces, urine and spit are OK; real and cartoon snot is OK." Well, that's good to know.
Other items subject to deletion include cartoon nudity, images of internal organs, bones, muscles, tendons and "deep flesh wounds," along with "blatant (obvious) depiction of camel toes and moose knuckles." (Confession: I had to Google "moose knuckle" to know what that meant.)
Images of "crushed heads, limbs, etc. are OK," however, as long as "no insides are showing" and the person posting them doesn't express delight or gratification.
Moreover, all criticism of Ataturk, the founder of the nation of Turkey, along with images depicting the burning of Turkish flags are forbidden. It's believed this restriction is due to certain European laws that, if violated, could cause the site to be blocked in Turkey.
The 17-page manual includes a one-page "cheat sheet" so workers can quickly reference it when making decisions about what to delete.
Gawker said Derkaoui found his job through the outsourcing firm oDesk, which provides content moderation services for Facebook and Google. About 50 people across the globe — mostly in Turkey, the Philippines, Mexico and India — work to moderate Facebook content. They work from home in four-hour shifts and earn $1 per hour plus commissions.
"It's humiliating. They are just exploiting the Third World," Derkaoui told Gawker.
The Enquirer's sole remaining editorial writer is among the employees who will be departing the newspaper as part of a round of "early retirement" buyouts.
Executives accepted the buyout application submitted by Ray Cooklis, the newspaper's editorial page editor, multiple sources have confirmed. Cooklis assumed control of The Enquirer's Op/Ed pages in July 2009 when his predecessor, David Wells, was laid off.
Cooklis, who also is a classically trained pianist and previously served as a music critic, didn't respond to an email this morning seeking comment.
In recent months, the daily newspaper has been criticized in journalism circles and on some blogs for only publishing one original, locally produced editorial a week, so it's unclear what impact Cooklis' departure will have.
Sources say others who are leaving The Enquirer include Features Editor Dave Caudill; photographer Glenn Hartong; reporter Steve Kemme, who covers eastern Hamilton County; Copy Desk Chief Sue Lancaster; Bill Thompson, a sports copy editor and occasional music critic; and Copy Editor Tim Vondebrink.
CityBeat confirmed Tuesday that political columnist Howard Wilkinson and longtime photographer Michael Keating also were leaving the newspaper.
The Gannett Co., The Enquirer's corporate owner, announced the buyout offer Feb. 9 and gave employees 45 days to decide whether to apply for the deal.
Under the deal, newspaper employees who are age 56 or older and have at least 20 years of service with Gannett as of March 31 are eligible. The Enquirer's goal is to eliminate 26 positions through the buyouts, sources said.
As part of reductions mandated by Gannett, The Enquirer has laid off about 150 workers during the past two years. Also, employees have had to take five unpaid furloughs during the past three years.
Of the departures announced so far, Cooklis' resignation could have the most immediate impact for readers.
Some progressive voices in Cincinnati dislike Cooklis because he is ardently right-wing in his opinions; they believe he too frequently blasted Democratic politicians, while turning a blind eye to excesses by their Republican counterparts and local corporations. Further, Cooklis lacked the courage to criticize some of the people and institutions that are among The Enquirer's many sacred cows, they added.
Still, Cooklis' departure is a bad omen for local news, with some media observers worried that it means The Enquirer has abandoned its First Amendment duty to hold powerful people accountable for their deeds.
Virginia-based Gannett also owns USA Today, more than 100 newspapers nationwide and 23 TV stations.
(**UPDATE: Glenn Hartong is not taking the buyout. Despite some sources at The Enquirer saying that he was, Hartong is only 51 years old and, thus, ineligible.)
If you need to do some research, post on Facebook or look at online porn (c'mon, we know you do it), you had better get it done before March 31.
That's when the global computer hacking group known as Anonymous — or someone claiming to represent it — allegedly plans to launch "Operation Global Blackout." To protest efforts by corporations and governments to restrict access to some material on the internet, the hacktivists plan to shut the web down, maybe just for an hour or perhaps much longer.
The Cincinnati Enquirer's parent company is testing a "pay wall" system at three of its newspapers as it attempts to devise a business model that involves users paying for Internet content.
If successful, the model being implemented at the Tallahassee Democrat in Florida, The Greenville News in South Carolina and The Spectrum in St. George, Utah, eventually could be implemented at Cincinnati's only surviving daily newspaper.
Some U.S. progressives are supporting a move by Icelandic politicians to nominate alleged WikiLeaks collaborator Bradley Manning for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Manning was nominated for the prestigious prize by The Movement of Icelandic Parliament, a group of politicians in Iceland dedicated to empowering grassroots activism.

Cyclones fall to the Hawkeyes, 165-135
AMES, Iowa – The Iowa State swimming and diving team (3-2-1, 0-1 Big 12) fell to instate rival Iowa (5-2, 2-2 Big 10) tonight, 165-135. In typical Cy-Hawk fashion, the meet was a back-and-forth, heavy weight battle with the lead changing hands six times throughout the contest.
Iowa State's senior diver Jessica Henderson claimed a third place finish in the 1-meter diving event with a score of 293.02 to push the meet to a 75-75 tie after eight events. Later in the meet, Iowa's Becky Stoughton (4:50.92) out touched Iowa State's standout freshman Karyl Clarete (4:52.17) to give the Hawkeyes a 116-110 lead.
Regardless of the result, Iowa State head coach Duane Sorenson is pleased with his team's performance in the rivalry matchup.
"I was very pleased with their effort," Sorenson said. "I thought we went out and raced in every event, and we put on a tremendous show for the fans. I know our women were doing their best and swimming their fastest, they were just a little bit faster."
Tonight's big stage produced big time performances from both teams. A total of seven records were broken in tonight's meet, five of them belonging to the Cyclones.
Iowa State senior Imelda Wistey claimed three of those records for herself. With a time of 1:00.46 Wistey broke the pool record of 1:02.87 set six years ago and her own school record of 1:01.35 set on Mar. 1, 2013.
Wistey then went on to break the school record in the 200 breaststroke with a time of 1:13.79, breaking the previous record of 1:15.31 set by teammate Emily Wiltsie on Dec. 9, 2013. According to Wistey, she experienced a "rollercoaster of emotions" throughout the meet.
"This is my last Cy-Hawk rivalry meet. It's bittersweet," Wistey said. "I'm happy with what I've done, that I could make an impact, but at the same time I know I'll never swim against the Hawkeyes again."
Another pool record was set by freshman teammate Clarete who raced to a first place finish in the 200 freestyle with a time of 1:48.38, breaking the previous record of 1:49.73. Clarete's high level of performance early in her career has caught the attention of her coach.
"The sky is the limit for her, and she is training well," Sorenson said. "I know she's not happy with the result and the outcome of her swim, so she is just going to get that much better. She is just a fierce competitor."

Illinois's deer hunting season gets under way Friday morning just before sunrise. But finding the biggest buck isn't the only thing on the minds of many stateline hunters.
A new hunting season is here, but with it, comes fears over Chronic Wasting Disease.
"It affects deer and elk. They drink a lot of water and become lethargic and listless," says Dennis Frichtl of the Illinois DNR police.
Last month roscoe was the site of Illinois's first case of CWD. But to the north, Wisconsin has been battling an outbreak.
"I'm a meat eater and we don't know what it is so right now I will not eat it," says Beloit hunter Kenny Howell.
A deer collection will be set up here during hunting season and at sites across Illinois where officials will push more hunters to test their harvested deer for the disease.
"The testing that we're doing, what we call surveying at the check stations is an attempt for us to make a determination as to how widespread if at all the disease is in this county," adds Frichtl.
Residents are also warned not take the issue into their own hands and to call Natural Resource Officials if they think they see a deer effected by CWD.
Despite the threat of CWD, Illinois DNR reports that permit sales are steady.

Usually the Weekend Wrap begins each season with a ''what we've learned about the teams,'' after the first week of the season and it doesn't really tell us much.
So this season, we decided to try this after two weeks to maybe have a better picture. So with most teams having played two games, we know ...
Shocker, right? I mean, who didn't see this one coming? With guys like Dan Monteroso, Michael Ferns, Jaylon Brown, Matt Kinnick, Corey Ernest, Cole Stephen, etc., the Red Devils were going to win their fair share of games. St. Clairsville has started the season with blowouts of Wheeling Park and Brooke, showing it could dominate a game running the ball or passing. It might take a near perfect game for someone to stop the Red Devils from going 10-0. But if could happen, because ...
Along with St. Clairsville, four other teams in the league have jumped out to 2-0 records: Martins Ferry, Bellaire, Indian Creek, and Harrison Central. Four of those teams have very winnable games this week with the toughest challenge likely coming from Oak Glen when it plays host to Indian Creek at its new stadium. The following week, the Buckeye 8 begins its slate with St. Clairsville vs. Indian Creek and Martins Ferry vs. Harrison Central. Bellaire will open with Buckeye Local.
Wheeling Central is done. It has to replace too many starters. It lost its quarterback to transfer/injury. Sound familiar? Those are usually the sounds coming from many people not in the Maroon Knights' locker room. It happened last season when quarterback Lee Peluchette transferred to Wheeling Park and Wheeling Central had to replace numerous starters from its state championship team. Result: another state title. This time around, quarterback Parker Henry gets hurt, Wheeling Central loses to Harrison Central in the opener. Result: the Maroon Knights bounce back behind a gutsy effort from C.J. Burch to knock off Weirton Madonna in a rainstorm. As much as some people want to keep writing the Wheeling Central obituary, they might want to wait until the end of the season before they count out Mike Young and his coaching staff.
It won't be shown on any local television channels. In fact, you likely won't see a story in your local newspaper. But when Morgantown and Parkersburg South face off Friday at Pony Lewis Field, you could be witnessing a potential preview of the Class AAA championship this December. The Patriots improved to 2-0 with a victory last week against Linsly, giving them one more game under their belt on the Mohigans, which opened the season last week beating Allderdice. The OVAC newcomers are already making a name for themselves and this could go a long way to claiming the OVAC 5-A title.
Rick Goodrich and Tony Filberto have had much success in their coaching careers. Stops at their new schools are going well. Goodrich's John Marshall squad and Filberto in his return to Weir are staring at 0-2 records. As is Brooke's Sean Blumette, Beallsville's Paul Kanzigg, Caldwell's Josh Perkins, and Shenandoah's Kaleb Lawrence. While being 0-2 isn't a death knell, teams will have to turn things around in a hurry if they have any postseason dreams. Winning is contagious. Unfortunately, losing can be, too.

Why is the body glove EVO so much more expensive than the EVX? What is the thermofiber interior like? Is it fleece or just softer nylon? Thanks.
Typically the material on a suit can be the difference in price. Much like the super stretch or just a higher quality material.
I didnt get an answer to the second part of my question. Can you tell me about the thermofiber lining in the body glove EXO suit? Is it fleece or something else? Thanks.
Not a fleece but it is a material that helps make the suit warmer.

Need instructions to mount a new HDD in my Samsung YH-J70
Hi all!
Some months ago, the (20 GB) hard disk of my Samsung YH-J70 (battery had been recently replaced) broke.
I have now received a new 30 GB hard disk (Toshiba MK30006GAL) and would like to know what I must do to correctly format, mount and do whatever is necessary to make the YH-J70 work again properly.
Has this been explained anywhere? Is the procedure similar for all Samsung players? Has anyone done this before and can give me valuable hints?
Thanks for your help and advise!
|[Remove Advertisement]
You will have to format the new disk and throw a complete firmware on the drive, almost guaranteed.
To format the disk from XP, right click on "My Computer" and select "Manage." Go to the tab called "Disc Management" and select the drive that your computer has assigned to the Samsung. Right click on it and select format. You will want to format in FAT32. When it's done, you'll have to follow the Samsung instructions for adding a firmware.
"Changed my mind so much I cant even trust it
My mind changed me so much I cant even trust myself"
Formatting and firmwaring does not remedy the problem
This looks like a hard disk error, doesn't it? I will try to copy files from a laptop to the player on Monday. But I am pessimistic about the possible result.
Only solution: return the hard disk to seller?
Hi bwprius et al.
Just wondering if you ever did manage to get your YH-J70 going again? You seem to be the only person on the whole internet who has even tried to install a new HD.
Well I'm going to have a go - can't bare (bear?) to throw £100 thing away just yet, so will instead throw good money after bad...
Have just ordered new (refurb) HD from ebay - it has exactly same codes on as existing one so here's hoping...
By the way , I think I saw somewhere that you got yours from 'Techsplosion' - so did I.
I have still not finished the refurbishment of my YH-J70
Yeah, it's really strange that there are not loads of YH-J70 refurbishing their players with new hard disks.
I myself however am still in the middle of the process.
By the way, in the end I did not a hard disk buy from Techsplosion. Months after my Techsplosion plans I bought a 30 GB Toshiba hard disk from a Canadian e-bay seller. And making the new hard disk integrate into the player and the software was very very easy. It worked directly. And I succeeded to put around 15 GB of music on the player. BUT not everything was in order since the ID3 tags did not show correctly and I could only search music folder by folder not by artists or titles. And when using the library restoration from the Samsung Studio it always stopped at certain songs and disconnected safely by itself. Thinking that the disk (I don't remember whether it was supposed to be new; anyway, it did not look completely new) would be defective I sent it back, but the dealer said that he tested it and it worked fine and he reimbursed my money (less the 7 euros I had to pay to send it back to him, shit!).
Well, I am now waiting for a Toshiba 20 GB hard disk which I bought from an Irish e-bay dealer. I do hope that this will finally work fine with my good old YH-J70 which I believe I love more than when it worked fine (and had short battery duration although the battery was replaced for free by Samsung's technical service here).
Hope you and me are lucky and will have smoothly working YH-J70 players soon. I plan to use it in the office with the mains cable so that battery life would not be an issue for me any longer.
Great to hear from you bwp,
Yes i saw that Canadian supplier on ebay too, he sent friendly but ultimately not really helpfull reply to my query for info/help.
I bought from a London seller; high-ish price on buy-it-now but I paid it because it matches exactly my original.
There seem to be a lot of variations in the letters on the line below MK2004GAL: After the bit that says HDD1442 mine says C ZF03 but I have seen (on ebay photos) P instead of C etc - I don't know what these mean.
Actually it was the player itself that I got from Techsplosion - a refurb unit, Christmas before last (its my daughter's really).
Many thanks for all the information from your experiences, I hope the next drive works out for you.
Did you format the drive with the format menu in Samsung Media Studio? I would have thought that that would set it all up properly. But what I am worrying about is whether that program will recognise the drive as a samsung device in the first place.
Anyway, we'll see... & I'll let you know.
Good luck with yours.
Done it.
Hey diddley-i-o ... It's done Here's how, in case anyone wants to know:
HD arrived this morning - pretty bloody good considering i just bought it at 2:30 yesterday afternoon!
But it is not the one pictured on ebay - it is MK2004GAL / HD1442 allright but after that; P ZG01 not C ZF03 as was my original. Also this one is Apple branded.
So I ground my teeth, emailed seller & tried to distract myself by actually doing my job while waiting for reply. He phoned in early eve & expressed opinion that they are exactly the same.
So I went ahead; charged battery first to make sure it wouldn't run out while setting up etc.
Opened player, took out HD, removed 50 pin board on little cable, untaped HD from rubbery surround, put in new one, taped, connected, etc & screwed it back shut. (I always have a little trouble getting the black back on - have to engage the little hooks at the bottom first and swing shut, but top doesn't go in easily).
Against better judgement I turned it on - got message saying "No system folder" but then it went on to (apparently) boot up - the 'Music' screen appeared. I switched it off.
Went to computer and plugged it in with USB cable.
It seemed to connect straight away but 'My Computer' window froze and 'Samsung Media Studio' didn't seem to see it.
It did appear in 'safely remove hardware' window though so I safely removed it - it took a little while but it worked.
Assuming it was working on Version 3 I then did the usb connect thing: Switched onto 'Hold' and held in the record button while I plugged in the usb cable.
It worked this time! 'My Computer' opened and showed it as a removable drive and it appeared in 'Samsung Media Studio'.
So I went to 'Device' menu in S.M.S. and to 'Format Device' - and formatted the drive. (I left the 'Volume Name' line as the string of odd symbols that came up, which I now regret).
After that i checked in 'My Computer' and all of the folders, including 'System' were there. I safely disconnected.
Then a funny thing - I thought I should copy in the firmware 2.07 files so tried to connect again with the Hold & Record technique - but after a few seconds the player lit up with the 'Hold' screen. I tried a couple more times - the same result. I then tried without Hold & Record and it seemed to work - showed up in all the right places including the 'safely remove hardware' as 'USB bulk storage device'. So I disconnected again.
Time to turn on properly - it started up all fine - menus all there, no 'no system' warning - looking good!
So I cheched the 'about' under 'system' menu and what the... it is working on version 2.07, even though I never put the files on the drive!
I guess that when I converted to 2.07 on old drive that must transfer data to flash memory on the motherboard(?)
So have now put a few tracks into 'Music' folder and rebuilt library - all working fine... so now must hand back to daughter ...
So it can be done ...
I paid a bit more than I needed to for the drive I think - bought that one because I thought it would be exactly like original; it wasn't but it doesn't seem to matter.
Those drives are sold for '3rd and 4th generation ipods' whatever they are. So mine was formatted for those, which is why, I think, that the player showed a Music folder before I Samsung-formatted it.
The latter operation put all the necessary folders on to the drive.
Now, is it possible to take apart and fix the old drive???
Hope this is of use!
all the best,
Hi all and especially "dartm":
Unfortunately the 20 GB Toshiba disk (from Ireland) I received today is not behaving the same way the 30 GB Toshiba disk (from Canada) did which worked right from the start.
This time, the YH-J70 gets stuck
- at the Data transferring screen, when connected to the PC
- at the blue System Loading screen, when just switched on.
So, what does this (from dartm's post) here mean and what is it good for?
"the usb connect thing: Switched onto 'Hold' and held in the record button while I plugged in the usb cable."
Will it help any "frozen" YH-J70?
For the time being I am charging the battery overnight. Although I believe the battery was full when I last used it (and returned the 30 GB HDD to Canada because of what I described above in an earlier reply).
Thanks for your help!
Unable To Make Yh-j70 See New Hard Disk !!!
I had hoped the above would work with my replacement hard disk but it does not seem to work.
I put it on Hold, I keep the Record button pushed and I plug in the USB cable. Although I get the blue System Loading screen and then the "Transferring Data (Do not Disconnect) screen, the PC does not recognize the player and it just stays like that. Nothing more happens.
Is there a way I can get the YH-J70 to recognize my new hard disk? It is a MK2006 GAL. Below it carries the Apple design mark.
Hi bwprius, sorry it has been a while since I looked at the forum.
I don't have much to offer I'm afraid...
The "the usb connect thing" is the way to get players using firmware rev. 3.0 to connect as USB driver rather than the other strange protocol (MTP? something like that) that was the default.
When connecting with the hold switch on I found I had to keep the 'record' button held in for some time - first came on the "Transferring Data (Do not Disconnect)" screen, but I continued to hold and then the USB connect screen came on. I didn't let go of the button until this came on. By the way, I was plugging in with the player switched off - it comes on by itself soon after plugging in.
Do you know if the drive was formatted for ipods? I think mine was and that still worked to get me connected, then I could reformat with the Samsung Media Studio, but perhaps yours is not formatted at all? Perhaps you could ask your supplier. I am not sure what you could do if it is not formatted.
From what I have read the MK2006GAL should be fine - there is a phot of a dismantled YH-J70 on some other forum which shows that disc installed.
Are you using Windows XP by the way?
All is not brilliantly well with my daughter's now... she has loaded a pile of tracks onto it and now it doesn't always "build the library" all the way through - but hangs up partway then disconnects itself - sounds like what you were getting previously.
But she has put all the tracks into the music folder without subfolders, so I might get her to change that; I know there is a limit of 1000+ files for any one folder.
There are probably answers to this in those huge long threads but I haven't got the energy to go through them all again!
Sorry not much help, good luck!
Still not got to the happy or sad end of the story ....
(By the way, my daughter has a 2 GB iriver clix. I also had to ask for help when she started using it. Myself, I also have a Cowon D 2 which I fucked up last week and was able to reconfigure with the help of the corresponding forum.)

Thanks XJ3F3Y... that is definitely helpful...
BWP, I hope that when you get your drive back from your friend that your computer will recognise it.
I imagine that your friend is formatting it using Windows formatting? In that case the first stage of XJ's instructions are done and you should just need to do the Media Studio bit, but his whole process is worth remembering.
For what it's worth I read somewhere else that the GAL bit means that it is a single-platter drive, which means that it is thin enough to fit in the YH-J70 case.
Re rebuilding the library - I told my daughter to put her tracks on a bit at a time, rebuilding the library in between so that it wouldn't have to do it all at once. I think she started doing that and everything was fine, but I suspect she - or boyfriend - got impatient and dumped a whole lot on at once. I also suspect that some of them might be dodgy in ways I don't quite understand (something to do with permissions?).
I bought younger daughter a Sansa 8gb more recently - it is easier to use - you can just drag & drop files into it; the library is re-built automatically by the player & there is no hard drive to wear out. Less capacity of course, but you can add more with mini-sd cards, now available up to 8gb.
Anyway, thanks for your comments & good luck again! I will let you know if I sort out latest probs. - (but the player is otherwise working, she seems to be able to access all tracks).

Last try
Hi all,
here I am again. Just want to update on my current situation.
I am now at Attempt No. 3 with my YH-J70.
I returned two hard disks (one 30 GB and one 20 GB) because I had the above problems (lost "only" some euros).
I now have a factory brand new 30 GB Toshiba MK3006GAL.
I packed it with music (and more fils until no space was left) and "reconstruct library" with the Samsung Media Studio works fine now.
I also threw firmware 2.07 on it. And charged the battery overnight.
BUT: the YH-J70 gets stuck at the System Loading screen.
I will carefully read all the above posts from you folks and try to fix the problem over the weekend or later.
See whether I will be able to fix it once and for all times!!!
Good luck. Hope it does get working for you.

The THIRD Toshiba MKxxxxGAL hard disk works !!!!
I formatted the player with Windows and with Samsung Media Studio (although I believe they use the same Windows utility), named the volume "YH-J70" and am now copying music on the disk. I do hope that like it did before it will store about 20 GB of music correctly and execute the Samsung "reconstruct library" function correctly.
It took me a lot of time, two hard disk returns (I can now say: Beware of anything that is not a new Toshiba MKxxxxGAL drive!).
The US dealer on e-bay where I bought the disk is one called DISI or sth like that. Here is the link to the shop (hope it works): http://search.ebay.es/_W0QQsassZdisi...e_drive_source
They are selling 30GB disks labeled MK3006GAL and also MK3008GAL. I guess there should be no difference and problems with the size and fitting in the YH-J70 as long as they have the GAL letters at the end.

Do you think a MK6028GAL 60gb or a MK8025GAL 80gb would fit?
I don't know if there is a capacity limitation.
60gb I'm sure, I know someone who put a 60gb HDD into the YH-J70 but I'm not sure the YH-J70 is able to recognize 80gb
And another problem is that the MK3006GAL is ATA-6 whereas the MK8025GAL is ATA-7...?!

Corn Planting Half Finished
(Des Moines) -- Despite receiving rainfall late last week, Iowa corn planting advanced 41 percentage points and now stands at 50 percent complete, compared to 7 percent at this time last year, and the five-year average of 32 percent. Five percent of the state's corn crop has emerged, ten days ahead of normal schedule. Iowa Secretary of Agriculture, Bill Northey says "farmers were able to make good progress last week and now half of the corn crop is planted statewide, which is good news.

State Senate to Debate Spending Bill
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - The Iowa Senate is planning to debate a spending bill that includes an assortment of measures including a 4 percent increase in funding for school districts for the fiscal
year beginning in July.
The so-called standing appropriations bill also includes several spending increases, many likely to be argued as Republicans and Democrats differ on how the state's revenue should be spent.
Included is $3 million for the Malcolm Price Laboratory School at the University of Iowa. The money would keep the school open and fund a study to determine whether it should be closed.
The bill also spends $2.9 million to repair damage caused by flooding on the Missouri River and provides $5.5 million for a bioscience initiative at Iowa State University.

A new study maintains that video games which simulate driving provoke a higher aggressive response than do violent games.
Drs. Simon Goodson and Sarah Pearson of the U.K.'s Huddersfield University will present their findings this week at the British Psychological Society's Annual Conference in Brighton.
Using an Xbox 360, the researchers studied players of Project Gotham Racing, a "3D table tennis game" and an unspecified first-person shooter. They found that the racing game caused the greatest changes in heart rate and brain activity. The shooter caused the least.
The conference program synopsizes their presentation:
Research has suggested a link between videogame violence and aggression using cognitive and physiological evidence. However, previous researchers have made sweeping generalisations about the nature of videogames. Using the latest hi-definition console both cognitive (BSPAQ) and physiological (ECG EEG & Respiration) measures were taken of participants playing a violent shooting game a driving game or a 3D table tennis game.
Results suggest that rather than a game containing graphic violence a driving game had the
greatest impact on the participants. Given the high levels of realism in modern games a re-evaluation of the relations between videogames and violence is needed.

Comments about Nexus Journal Folio:
The NEXUS 7 (2013 2nd gen) tablet cover is OK overall. However, it lacks a hole for the rear camera, and the base unit (with the slots) is a bit flimsy. If I set the tablet on my lap using the case as a stand, the bottom of the case stand bends especially toward the rear of the base. This makes it flimsy to use. The outer edges of the tablet screen where the drop-down status windows are located can be tricky to put the end of my finger on since the case edging comes right to the edge of the screen. Overall, the case is made of good material and I think overcoming some of the "cons" would make it a much better product. I got my case at a substantial sale price, but I would have been greatly disappointed had I paid the full price I had been seeing it sell for on various web sites.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
