Photographer Counters Requests for Free Work by Asking People to Work for Free
"I am a photographer and since people are always looking for free shoots I assume that they must also do their job, or provide their services, for free."
That's the opening of an ad that was posted on the Talent Gigs section of Craigslist Atlanta back in October, and is once again circulating around the web. The photographer (we never found out who he or she was. Do you know? ) offers to hire all kinds of people –for no pay. "I am looking for all types of people to do all sort of jobs for me, as long as I don't have to pay you anything." The ad does offer the chance to "gain more experience" and lots of love.
The ad has now expired, but you can find the full text on Consumerist.com. It might come in handy the next time a friend, relative, or potential paying client asks you to take some photos for free.

Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a type of prostate surgery done to relieve moderate to severe urinary symptoms caused by an enlarged prostate, a condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
During TURP, a combined visual and surgical instrument (resectoscope) is inserted through the tip of your penis and into the tube that carries urine from your bladder (urethra). The urethra is surrounded by the prostate. Using the resectoscope, your doctor trims away excess prostate tissue that's blocking urine flow and increases the size of the channel that allows you to empty your bladder.
TURP is one of the most effective options for treating urinary symptoms caused by BPH. To determine whether TURP or another treatment is the right choice for you, your doctor will consider how severe your symptoms are, what other health problems you have, and the size and shape of your prostate.
TURP helps reduce urinary symptoms caused by BPH.
Urinary symptoms caused by BPH can include:
TURP may also be done to treat or prevent complications due to blocked urine flow, such as:
Although a number of procedures are available to treat BPH, TURP is the most commonly performed procedure. TURP is associated with specific risks and complications that should be discussed with your physician.
Risks can include:
Before the procedure, your doctor may want to do a test that uses a visual scope to look inside your urethra and bladder (cystoscopy). This allows the doctor to check the size of your prostate and examine your urinary system. Your doctor may also want to do other tests, such as blood tests or tests to specifically measure the prostate or urine flow.
Follow your doctor's instructions on what to do before your treatment. Here are some issues to discuss with your doctor:
TURP generally takes 60 to 90 minutes. You'll be given either a spinal anesthetic, which allows you to be awake during the procedure but unable to feel pain in the surgical area, or a general anesthetic, which will put you to sleep. The doctor may also give you a dose of antibiotics to prevent infection.
A combined visual and surgical instrument (resectoscope) is inserted into the tip of your penis and extended through your urethra and into the prostate area. By accessing the prostate through your penis, your doctor won't need to make any cuts (incisions) on the outside of your body. The resectoscope has a light, valves for controlling irrigating fluid, and an electrical loop to cut tissue and seal blood vessels.
The doctor will use the resectoscope to trim tissue from the inside of your prostate gland, one small piece at a time. As small pieces of tissue are cut from inside your prostate, irrigating fluid carries them into your bladder. They're removed at the end of the operation.
BPH usually isn't a symptom of prostate cancer, and it doesn't increase your risk of prostate cancer. However, the prostate tissue from your procedure will be sent to a lab to check for hidden cancer cells or other conditions.
After surgery, you'll need to stay in the hospital for one to two days. Talk to your doctor about what you can expect and any precautions you need to take after you go home.
These steps can help you recover after your procedure.
Following TURP, most men experience significant relief of symptoms. Because surgery leaves behind part of the prostate gland, it is possible for BPH symptoms to redevelop. However, surgery can offer relief for between seven and 15 years for most people.
After TURP, it's important to have a digital rectal exam once a year to check your prostate and screen for prostate cancer, as you would normally. If you notice any worsening urinary symptoms, make an appointment to see your doctor. In some cases, follow-up treatment to ease symptoms is needed, particularly if many years have passed since TURP was done.

1st time I ordered shoes from NG. The first pair had to be returned, but that was accomplished with simplicity. The second pair did not have the problem I had with the 1st. 2 piece contsruction, (uppers), and where they were sewn together, the right shoe had excess materiel on the inside which was rubbing my foot so it was impossible to wear. 2nd pair is great...comfortable and easy off / easy on. Well worth the price!!

The shoes look great, even better than the picture, but they're not very comfortable. The original write up said they would be great for travel, but I don't think so. Perhaps it's just that they need to be worn in some, but in 2012 with all the modern manufacturing process I wouldn't expect this to be the case I'm debating exchanging them for a larger size, but the shoe is so rigid otherwise I don't a larger size would remedy all the problems. Did I mention they wore a blister on the back of my foot? It's still tender there.

Am 9.5 M wearing female looking for quality orthopedic/supportive everyday multipurpose traveling shoe. Found the male conversion size on line , got the 42 EUR and it's PERFECT!!!!! The black is a softer leather and I love it. The tan is VERY good looking (my friend do NOT think they look too manly) BUT the leather is very stiff, needs to be more flixible and pliable. Am working to soften the tan pair but size is great!

My husband first wore these shoes to China and walked the Great wall. Never had a problem with them. These are the only shoes he has worn in three years. I was thrilled to see them still in your catelog so I ordered another pair for him. Now if I can just get him to wear the new ones I will be all set.
Travel should not be emphasized
By Denny the walker/runner
from Hudson, IA
Poor leather quality and construction for a shoe of this original price. Doesn't match other shoes (less expensive) that I have for comfort for extensive walking in travel situations. The tongue presses against the ankle front going up and down stairs. In today's shoe world I would not expect to have to "break in shoes".

Support From Afar
By Jordy Clifton
A supportive family can always help with life's struggles and successes. For senior tennis player Kim Stubbe, her family has been there for her throughout her tennis career.
Stubbe grew up in Mol, Belgium with one younger brother, Arno Stubbe, two loving parents, Annemie Willebozts and Michel Stubbe, and grandfather, Rene Willebozts.
Kim has many memories of growing up and having her family's full attention on her success. Her grandfather helped her achieve some of her tennis goals in his own personal ways.
"He didn't just focus on tennis, he focused on things to make me do better in life," said Stubbe. "I struggled with my serve, so my grandfather would help me focus on my toss."
Kim remembers one instance in particular where her grandfather helped her.
"One day we went and practiced in the garage," said Kim. "And he drew a dot on the ceiling and I would have to practice my toss by hitting that dot so many times in a row. He didn't know a lot about tennis, but he was always invested and he always wanted to make me better."
Arno is only 11 months younger than Kim, so he was an even bigger influence in Kim's childhood. Growing up, they developed a strong bond by playing sports together.
"The small age gap allowed us to play soccer on the same team when we were younger and in our spare time we always played tennis together on our street," said Arno. "We practically did everything together. She took her role as being an older sister and a great leader for me."
Kim's tennis career was the main focus for her family. Looking back, Kim noticed that most of the family's time and money went towards her tennis potential. But through it all, Arno was always there for her.
"Kim is very dedicated, has an unbelievable perseverance, and is the greatest fighter I know," said Arno. "She has her goals and does everything to reach them, but sometimes she does need a little bit of mental support and I make sure I'm always there for her. No matter what the situation I was always on her side, even when she was wrong. She could and always can count on me, just as I can count on her."
Since Belgium is thousands of miles away, Kim tries her best to stay in contact with her support system back home.
"Recently I bought a smart phone," said Stubbe. "The main reason why I bought it was to keep in contact with everyone back home. I am emailing my mom every day and I try to Skype her every two days."
With Skype, smart phones and applications, Kim has a way to connect with certain family members back home. Her grandfather is a little more old school when it comes to communication.
"My grandfather isn't into technology at all," said Kim. "He actually writes me two letters each week. It is so special. Every time I get home from practice, I check in the mailbox for his letters. Sometimes I start to panic if his letters come later, but every time I get a letter, it means the world to me."
Although they cannot visit, Kim's family tries its best to follow along in her college career.
"My mom always follows online while the live stats are going," said Kim. "She will stay awake to watch the stats, she is always the number one fan. All of my family has been really supportive with my tennis career."
Even though Kim's family is far away, she has developed many relationships at school. She realizes the importance of having people around when she is so far from home.
"I am really happy right here in Arizona," said Kim. "I have a family here. I am a social butterfly, so I need people in my life. I have my friends outside tennis. I have my team and they are like my sisters and then I have my coaches who are like parents to me."
The Wildcat family at Arizona keeps Kim's mind off of missing her family at home. A moment when she gets free time is when she starts missing her family even more.
"I have my Wildcat family, but sometimes I get so busy and it is hard to always think about being back home," said Kim. "When there are breaks though that is when I start to think, 'that would have been nice to spend that with the family.'"
Kim's family's support has helped her become a stronger person and do anything she puts her mind to. Without their support she doesn't know where she would stand, but she always knows they will be by her side.
"No matter where I go they know that I will be happy," said Kim. "And I will do anything to reach after my goals. So no matter what, we will always be a happy family."

Full SubmissionTHE UNITED NATIONS CONFERENCE ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (UNCSD) 2012 INPUTS OF THE UNDERSIGNED ORGANIZATIONS TO THE COMPILATION DOCUMENT Population dynamics and sustainable development are linked. The linkages between population dynamics and sustainable development has been recognized by many internationally agreed goals and principles, including the Rio Declaration 1992, Agenda 21, International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) Programme of Action (PoA), the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action and the Millennium Declaration. In the context of the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (UNCSD) 2012, it is important to reaffirm role of sexual and reproductive health and rights and gender equality in achieving sustainable development. This means ensuring that policies and programmes that aim to achieve sustainable development should also promote the human rights of all people to the highest attainable standard of sexual and reproductive health and wellbeing, particularly for women, young people and those living in poverty. Young people are the present and the future. There are over 1.8 billion people aged 10-24 years in the world today, the majority of whom live in developing countries. In most developing countries, this generation of young people comprises more than a third of their country?s population. In 67 developing countries, young people aged 10-24 constitute more than 40% of the adult population above 10 years of age. Young people are the most significant demographic group today and will remain so for the coming decades. Policies should take into account the drivers of population growth. As the world reaches 7 billion, it is projected to grow to 9.3 billion by 2050. Most of the growth will take place in the developing world, as a result of the combined effects from the large number of women of childbearing age due to the high fertility of the past (so-called population momentum), declining mortality and remaining high fertility in some parts of the world (due to high desired fertility and high unmet need for contraceptives). In the least developed countries, which are marked by the highest fertility rates, the population is expected to nearly double by 2050, increasing the working age population by about 15 million per year. In the context of a green economy, there is an urgent need for countries to incorporate policies and programmes that take these dynamics into account and effectively respond to the shifting sources of population growth. Access to sexual and reproductive health and rights addresses high fertility. Addressing high fertility where it prevails continues to be a viable strategy, provided that programme interventions are human-rights based and give people the opportunity to influence the number of children and the spacing between births that they desire. High fertility is partly due to high rates of unwanted pregnancies, especially in adolescents. Young women and couples of reproductive age are increasingly choosing to have fewer children than the previous generation, but they will be unable to fulfill these desires if they lack access to comprehensive sexual and reproductive health services and contraceptives. Globally, an estimated 215 million women want to use family planning methods and services, but do not have access to them. Family planning services are essential for the prevention of unintended and unwanted pregnancies and enable women and couples to choose the number and spacing of pregnancies. There is a need to ensure that national development plans support age-appropriate sexuality education, including information with gender equality perspective, in and out of school as well as young people?s access to contraceptives. Special efforts are required to ensure that health systems respond to the needs of young people, and that adolescent sexual and reproductive health programmes are able to reach those who are most in need. Gender equality and access to health will slow down population momentum. Where population growth is already due almost exclusively due to population momentum, i.e. the large number of women of childbearing age due to the high fertility of the past, putting in place approaches to increase the age at marriage, to empower girls and young women with information for acquiring accurate contraceptive methods , and enhancing adolescents? sexual and reproductive health, educational levels, and income-generating potential can have significant effects on population growth rates. Where girls are able to stay in school until secondary school and are empowered to decide on matters related to their sexuality and reproduction, there is a significant observed effect in delaying child birth and increasing spacing. Promoting sexual and reproductive health services advances environmental sustainability. Many experts agree that slowing down population growth including through ensuring access to sexual and reproductive health including family planning would reduce pressure on scarce natural resource within communities, including fuel for cooking and warmth, drinking water, and land for subsistence farming. Universal access to sexual and reproductive health including family planning should be one the key interventions needed to achieve sustainable, low-carbon development. The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) estimates that demand for family planning will increase by about 50 to 75 per cent from 2005-2020 in many developing countries. If governments and other donors fund sexual and reproductive health services and supplies, we can advance environmental sustainability while also promoting social justice, development and human rights. HIV prevention amongst young people ensures a sustainable workforce. Governments must recognize that the response to HIV is both a human rights issue and also an economic necessity crucial to eradicating poverty. On one hand, disproportionately high levels of poverty and unemployment make young people more vulnerable to HIV infection. On the other, with close to four out of ten new HIV infections occurring amongst young people, this has serious implications for productivity today and the workforce of tomorrow, particularly in countries in Sub-Saharan Africa where HIV prevalence is as high as 25% of the population. Access to sexual and reproductive health services promotes adaptation. Young women's health and well-being, their ability to choose if or when to have children and their risk or early pregnancy is affected by their lack of access to safe and stigma free sexual and reproductive health services, contraception and comprehensive sexuality education. Such access helps build resistance among individuals and communities and should be incorporated as a part of policies to promote sustainable development and adaptation strategies for climate change. RECOMMENDATIONS: In the context of the Green Economy, member states should: ? Recognize that sustainable development entails empowering young people, particularly the most marginalized, by investing in their education, health including sexual and reproductive health, employment and leadership. ? Reaffirm commitments to the ICPD Programme of Action, the Beijing Platform for Action and the World Programme of Action for Youth ? Prioritize their full and effective implementation of these commitments through multisectoral programmes that link social justice, access to health, gender equality and environmental sustainability. ? Take into account population dynamics in policies and expand rights-based programmes that effectively respond to the shifting sources of population growth through promotion of sexual and reproductive health and rights. ? Commit to build the capacities of young people and women in the production and marketing of green technologies should be prioritized in the transition to a green economy. ? Promote gender equality and the empowerment of young women and support programmes as a cross-cutting issue and a priority for sustainable development including through addressing the gendered impacts of climate change as a part of strategies to promote adaptation. ? Support gender-sensitive, age-appropriate, life-skills-based comprehensive sexuality education for young people both in and out of school based on international standards as a way to empower young people, promote gender equality, human rights, prevent HIV and increase use of sexual and reproductive health services. ? Expand and support young people?s choices and opportunities by ensuring and investing in access to youth friendly sexual and reproductive health services including family planning, particularly for marginalized adolescent girls and young women, those living with disabilities and in humanitarian situations. ? Reaffirm the goal of universal access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support, in line with the Declaration of Commitment on HIV (2001) and the Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS (2006). ? Embrace the vision of Zero New Infections, Zero AIDS Related Death and Zero Discrimination and support efforts to achieve the three Bold Results on HIV and Young People under the UNAIDS Strategy 2011-2015, namely, (1) Raising comprehensive knowledge to 80%, (2) Doubling condom use amongst young people and (3) Doubling HIV testing among young people - in order to reduce new HIV infections among young people by 30% by 2015. ? Support integrated approaches to sustainable development that build on people?s expressed needs, and strengthen community-based strategies, including through the meaningful participation of young people. In the context of the Institutional Framework, member states should: ? Ensure the meaningful participation of young people in decision making processes, by putting in place enabling structures and supportive policies and through building the capacities of youth-led organizations. ? National development plans, poverty reduction strategies, sustainable development strategies, policies and programmes should be planned, implemented, monitored and evaluated in equal partnership with young people through a participatory approach. ? Young people and youth-led organizations should be empowered to hold their governments accountable for their commitments including through monitoring budgets and participation in appropriate institutional mechanisms.

Rated 5 out of 5�by marini wrist saver Ive been working out for years and using just regular workout gloves. After sufferings with wrist pain for years I new that I needed some kind of support for my wrists, I finely purchased the gloves with the wrist support straps and within minutes of me working out my wrist felt great with no pain. I was able to go heavier with the weights for my straight bar curls and all the exercises that I do. Pain free.. woo woo ! I should'be bought them years ago. June 25, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5�by LaneL Like the Wrist Wrap I bought these because I've been having wrist issues doing olympic style lifts in Crossfit and I thought the wrist wrap would help. After a few workouts I have noticed that I haven't felt the same strain I have without the wraps as well as less than if I just taped my wrists. My only negative thing I'd say is that the gloves don't have quite the traction I wish they did but I also havne't busted any of my caluses while wearing these so that's been nice also. June 25, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5�by DAG82 wrap gloves I have worn through a couple pair of lifting gloves since I began my weight training. Like most these gloves need to be broken in a little and mold to your hand, but in the 1st couple of uses I can feel the support and comfort of these gloves. I would recommend these to anyone who isn't satisfied with what they currently use. June 12, 2013

Loved it! It absolutely holds anything I throw at it (within reason). It can hold (obviously not at the same time) : my iPhone, GPS, or iPod classic with is heavy and bulky but it holds it anyway. Overall, great little purchase.

First off let me say I enjoyed the NVIDIA webinar yesterday. It got me motivated to try out PLASMA/MAGMA.
Two issues thus far...
1) I have PLASMA compiled on 3 machines: core i5 running Ubuntu 10.04, core i7 running RHEL 5, and a dual quad core Xeon running RHEL 5. I have built PLASMA using gfortran/gcc 4.4 with -O3 flag linking in ATLAS BLAS (unthreaded). My main interest is in sgesv performance (called from fortran90). When I compare the wall-clock time of PLASMA vs. threaded sgesv from ATLAS, ATLAS wins usually by a factor of 2X, sometimes even 3X. I noticed in the webinar and in the user guide that comparisons are usually done on many-core machines. Is this performance expected in my case? If not, what tricks can I play to get PLASMA running optimally? I have played with setting the tile size and inner block sizes to no avail.
2) I understand (I think) that PLASMA operates on tiled matrices. Would it be better to directly build the matrices using tiled storage? Does it cause a performance drag if I fill my matrix in the "normal" way as compared to directly building a tiled matrix? I ask this because I notice a couple of things. One is that the memory usage goes way up upon entry to plasma_sgesv (presumably due to the plasma_shared_alloc calls). The other is that I notice there are then two calls to plasma_lapack_to_tile and plasma_tile_to_lapack. Is this where my speed hit is coming from in question 1?

www.pwmag.com quick-poll question:
Are furloughs a reasonable way for elected officials to balance the budget?
We posed this question the day Chicago Mayor Richard Daley announced that city employees will get the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and New Year's Eve off without pay — for two years — to help offset a $470 million budget shortfall. Claiming the furlough will save 225 jobs, the mayor assured Chicagoans that workers will be called back in "if there's a big snowstorm or other emergency."
Barack Obama has asked former President Clinton appointee Carol Browner to oversee the agency until his administration takes charge Jan. 20. A University of Florida College of Law graduate who once served as secretary of the state's Department of Environmental Regulation, Browner led the EPA from 1993 through 2000. She is currently chair of the National Audubon Society.
Earthjustice plans to challenge the EPA's decision to not regulate percholate in drinking water.
Sixteen components at the wastewater treatment plant in Lodi, Calif., were affected by an award-winning project that cost $40 million to build and was undertaken to meet tougher discharge requirements and increase capacity. Major upgrades include tertiary filtration, ultraviolet disinfection facilities, expansion of the treatment capacity from 6.5 mgd to 8.5 mgd, and the addition of process improvements to provide full ammonia conversion and partial denitrification.
Riverwalk Landing at Yorktown Waterfront in Yorktown, Va., is one of eight recipients of the Professional Grounds Management Society's highest honor in its annual Green Star Awards competition.
The revitalization, which opened in 2005, is the result of two decades of effort to transform a dilapidated commercial district and eroding shoreline. In 1988 the village board, trustees, and residents developed a master plan to address the issues and, after stalls in funding, improvements began in the 1990s.
Developed by York County and funded through low-interest bonds, tax credits, and grants, Riverwalk Landing is the master plan's $10 million centerpiece. The entire plan encompasses streetscape improvements, the renovation of the county's historic government building York Hall, shoreline stabilization, and a river walk.

Griffith Scholarship Honors Former Dean and Assists Students
Many university scholarships are begun by alumni donors. One special SIS scholarship, however, The Ernest S. and Margaret D. Griffith Scholarship, was started by the very people it was meant to benefit. The SIS student council established the scholarship to honor Dean Griffith, the founding dean of SIS, on his 100th birthday.
"It was decided that SIS would give a celebration and invite the SIS alumni to participate and make contributions in my father's honor," said Lawrence Griffith, M.D., Dean Griffith's son. "SIS students and alumni raised over $125,000 in that one event. That was the start, and the initial funding that came from that big reception."
However, the family asked if SIS could make one small change.
"My family and I were interested in honoring both of our parents," said Griffith. "Around that same time, I was back in touch with Dean Emeritus Louis Goodman, and asked if they would be willing to expand the name to include my mother. In those days, my mother really was a very large part of how things got started at SIS, and the dinners and things that she hosted for faculty wives. She was into it up to her eyeballs, in terms of wanting to do things."
Griffith was always interested in the lives of students. "He loved students. He came to Washington in 1932 from Syracuse University to be dean of graduate studies, and he and my mother started attending Metropolitan Memorial United Methodist Church, right across the street. He had a Sunday School class of high school students for 16 years. He had a basketball league organized for them. For SIS orientation, he thought that a hike up Old Rag Mountain in Shenandoah National Park was a good way to have new students come together."
Sara Kokkelenberg, SIS/CAS/BA '13, is in her third year of Griffith funding, a renewable prize awarded annually to support freshmen who best exemplify the School of International Service's commitment to public service and exhibit academic excellence.
"I was able to stay here in many ways because of the Griffith Scholarship," she said. "I was happy about that, since I've had a great experience."
Kokkelenberg demonstrates the commitment to community service described by the wording of the fund. As a high-school student, she visited the Dominican Republic twice to work with Orphanage Outreach, co-led her high school chapter of Amnesty International and visited a Native American reservation in South Dakota to build bunk beds. As an AU freshman, Kokkelenberg participated in the Freshman Service Experience, spending two days cleaning Rock Creek Park.
Brandy Pech, SIS/BA '15, a junior studying abroad in London and pursuing her BA/MA dual degree in International Peace and Conflict Resolution, has received the Griffith Scholarship for four semesters. Pech has been self-sufficient since age 16, and has accumulated extensive student loans to pay for her AU tuition.
"The Griffith will be one of several grants which will reduce that large overall sum," Pech said.
Griffith felt strongly about creating scholarships, said his son, and Pech hopes to make a similar impact on SIS students.
"AU and SIS are very dear to me," Pech said. "They have shaped who I am. There is no doubt in my mind that one day I will also set up a scholarship fund that will enable students with special circumstances, who normally fall through the cracks, to receive funds that will allow them to live their dreams, just like me."

Fresno State 69, Colorado 14
Saturday, Sept. 15
6 p.m. - CBS Sports Network
Bulldog Stadium, Fresno, Calif.
Brooks: No Simple Fix For What's Wrong With Buffs
FRESNO, Calif. - Simpler was supposed to be better. Instead, it turned into simply bad here Saturday night.
After consecutive losses to opponents they were favored to beat, the Colorado Buffaloes shrunk their offensive and defensive game plans for Fresno State. The theory, said CU coach Jon Embree and his coordinators, was to mentally free up their players - particularly the younger ones - with fewer sets and assignments.
An adage in football is to do a handful of things well rather than try to do too much and succeed at nothing - and success had clearly eluded CU in the season's first two weeks. This week's goal, Embree said, was "to give our guys fewer things to think about and let them play faster."
Coordinator Eric Bieniemy said his offense went into Saturday's game with about 50 percent of what was made available in the first two games. The running game, which went from 58 yards in the opener to 153 last week, remained his priority. But, Bieniemy added, no matter how simple a game plan becomes, sloppy execution will kill it.
Defensively, coordinator Greg Brown said what his players practiced last week was reduced considerably, with the objective to remain in their base defense and work in various blitzes when called for. The onus remained on the D-line to produce pressure on Fresno State quarterback Derek Carr, and on CU's "Baby Buff" secondary - freshmen corners Yuri Wright and Kenneth Crawley, and safety/nickel back Marques Mosley - to cover.
But on this night, simplification didn't work. Nothing did. And Fresno State did whatever it wanted . . . with ease. Anything simple or elaborate CU had in mind drifted out of Bulldogs Stadium after the Buffs fell behind 35-0 in the first quarter. They left dizzied by allowing 69 points while scoring only 14. Fresno State practically rewrote CU's football record book, with all the revisions in the worst possible context for the slumping Buffs.
"At the end of the day we have to help ourselves by making plays . . . we didn't make the plays," junior linebacker Derrick Webb said. "The coaches did their jobs by making it simpler, but the players, we have to step up and do our jobs."
CU's deplorable first quarter offered reason to flash back to an afternoon in Lawrence, Kan., three seasons ago when the Buffs allowed that many fourth-quarter points in a meltdown loss to Kansas. Embree wasn't there for that one, but some of his players were.
Derrick Webb was among them. "It's a loss," he said. "Kansas was bad, today is bad. I don't know if it gets too much worse than those two games right there. A loss like this should motivate you. If it doesn't, that's another issue...more
Fast-striking Fresno State scorched CU and much of the school's 123-year-old record book, humiliating the visitors 69-14 on Saturday night in the Buffs' final non-conference game...more

McCoy Item # A4056
Industrial Cord Pendant
Customize This Product
Form follows function on the modest McCoy, a stripped-down industrial pendant originally marketed with other drop-cord fixtures as "electrician's supplies." Today, creative folks who appreciate raw and simple industrial style will find the McCoy alluring above bars, tables, and counters, especially when paired with our reproduction bulbs.
The charm of industrial design is in its simplicity. Bare sockets and stripped-down parts act as functional ornamentation, resulting in a fixture both timeless and contemporary, appropriate for any space in any home.
- Solid brass socket and shade holder
- Authentic black or white porcelain canopy
These fixtures were once common in spaces with no wall switch, and a turnkey socket was a necessity. If you're blessed with a wall switch, leave the turnkey in the "on" position and you can just control your light at the wall.
Reproduction light bulbs give off a soft glow, providing mood lighting rather than task lighting.

Who Wants One?
Latest News
Who Wants One?Posted byMay 11, 2011Filed under:1672
My favourite Lupe song is I'm Beaming. It's incredibly inspiring and makes me wanna keep working hard to achieve my dreams.
"so out of the trillions of number in the world just leave me a few that lead to you, wont be long i'll see you in the morning COO" Sunshine for real. I used that line on a girl... she is currently my girlfriend now. and i cant forget "we On" with you and gemstone. I was rockin that song for a long time. Its part of my ultimate lupe playlist.
My favorite Lupe Fiasco song right now is "Go To Sleep" because it just puts me in the most peaceful and relaxed mindset, and gets me thinking about certain things in life, like can I go to sleep right now am I angry at anyone? Is anyone angry at me? Can I go to sleep now? I literally LOVE and appreciate every song that Lupe records and respect everything that you do. Peace and love from the Middle East, We believe in what you are doing God bless you, Salam, Mohamed
My favorite song is the streets are on fire. Its a song that you can fit any meaning into and it will work, its so general yet feels personal.
My favorite song by Lupe is "All Black Everything." This song is lyrical genius. The play on the words "all black everything," is poetry. Upon closing their eyes, a person can imagine the proposed world of the song freely. Also, when one closes their eyes, there is no light, therefore only black can be seen. The intertwining of poetry references is astounding and displays Lupe's true talent as a lyricist. "Now we can do nothing about the past" is a reference to Shakespeare's Whereof whats past is prologue; what to come, In yours and my discharge." He also references what Immortal Technique said, "You cant change the past but you can make the future." This song is a piece of artwork, it gives rap a good name and truly displays the thought and intelligence that comes with songwriting. Keep up the good work Lupe, your true (nerdy) fans love the entendres, the metaphors and concept songs!
Love all of his songs, but I'm really into Fighters right now. Really personal and hit home to me thas all
Beautiful Lasers - It is by far the best and most spine tingling song that Lupe Fiasco has made. It such a magnificent that takes all your downs and makes them ups. It makes your frown a smile. The word play is amazing and the beat and JUST everything about this song is phenomenal. It gets me thinking every time.
I think its IMPOSSIBLE to just pick one favorite song, so I'm gonna have give a quick breakdown on my top 5 :) BMF: I love the switch up into POSITIVE lyrics, shining some light on people like Malcolm X and Martin Luther, verses Big Meech and Larry Hoover. And the idea of "building minds faster" is just beautiful. Words I Never Said: Who doesn't love and respect a song that speaks nothing but the truth?! (You want the realness? Well, I gotcha!) Go To Sleep: (#1 on my itunes with almost 800 plays!) :D CRAZY wordplay and metaphors! It seems like I catch something new every time I listen to it. This is an eargasmic song at its greatest. Put You On Game: The lyrics and the way Lupe dictates the words is incredible. His style of rapping is so unique, unlike anything I've ever heard before. This song has a flow that's on a whole 'nother level of UNTOUCHABLE. Beautiful Lasers: Lyrics that cut so deep, its been a LONG time since I've had a song that touches my soul the way that this one does. I love to see the positivity and bright energy that came from such a dark and negative time. Remember, love always shines
I would definitely say that one of my favorites by Lupe is Yoga Flame. This freestyle is pure lyrical genius, and keeps my inspiration at an all time high. Instead of mindlessly listening for a nice beat, I focus on the words, and the complex metaphors that fascinate fans everywhere come time and time again. Lupe Fiasco, keep us thinking.
Can't pick just one song, but I'll say "the cool" awesome story, inspired a whole album, and that last line of the 3rd verse is so strong, and I don't think I've ever skipped it when my ipod's on shuffle. LASERS!
"Streets on fire" I basically spent two months studying that song because it was so great. From the story to the message, the metaphor, not to mention the crazy good lyrics and hook. This song has change how creative I can be when it comes to writing
Dumb It Down. I love the metaphors and wordplay plus this song says everything about Lupe's music. It there are any doubters out there, or any people who don't know what Lupe is about, all they have to do is listen to this song. FNF Up!
"Words I Never Said" I'm currently pursuing my Bachelor's Degree in Secondary English Education. So referencing budget cuts in schools hits home. Lupe is true hip hop, speaking the truth... not like those rapping about b*tches and hoes.
One of my favourite Lupe songs is Lupe the Killer from Revenge of the Nerds mixtape because the wordplay is beyond crazy in that song and each phrase can be translated into 897624590 different meanings. However, if I had to choose a favourite Lupe song from one of his albums (which is not easy), that would be Put You on Game because it sends out a great message of the ills of society + govt in such a genius way with the use of many dope metaphors :).
My favorite song is definitely "The Coolest". Flow's incredible, lyrics are fantastic and the beat is sick. And it's the first song that I heard from Lupe so this is definitely my favorite :)! (Sorry for my bad english, I'm from Quebec so I speak french!)
I love the new album Lasers but my favorite Lupe song is not on this album but on The Cool and my favorite song is "the coolest." This song exemplifies the reality of a common goal amongst many urban youths. A common determination that ultimately leads to self destruction in urban communities.
Words I Never Said. because whenever I am in an argument, heated debate, disscussion, or even just an everyday conversation, the song reminds me to never hold back what I'm thinking or feeling, because 'as I drown in my regrets, I can't take back the words I never said.' Truly inspiring. It makes you think twice about what is happening in the world and what you can do about it. All of us can start by simply voicing our opinions and standing up for what is right.
"Kick Push" My favorite song cause Lupe did something different with this song. He rapped about skateboarding and actually made it a cool song for both the underground and the mainstream. But mainstream or underground Lupe Fiasco is still a beast.
My favourite track is Never forget you of Lasers because its so moving,the lyrics reach me every morning,i have never felt the pain of physical death but my heart has been ripped apart by someone who is now dead to me,its my morning track...without fail,i hear it everyday.
"He Say, She Say" The original "Kick, Push" was the song that actually made me a fan of Lupe, but "He Say, She Say" tells a story about a boy without a Dad. It has real soul in it; you can feel Lupe really feels strongly about it. Shit, the whole Food and Liquor album is great. "Sunshine" is really good, too. Fuck, I CAN'T DECIDE!! Lol.
To me.. "Till I get there" is ONE of my many favorites.... all his songs are incredible.. but "till I get there" is so amazing.. "i'ma keep it cool and ima do me" "yeah i got flaws i know i'm not perfect" it's amaazing...
Well, since Lasers was terribly except for a few songs my favorite would have to be "The Instrumental." Lyrically great, and different.
My favorite Lupe song would probably be "Muhammad Walks." I liked how it was able to educate many about Islam with Lupe's brilliant lyrics. My favorite lyrics are: "...through Ramadan we starve Though you not eatin, there's a feedin of the mind A defeatin of the demons, a seein' of the sign..."
Handcuffs. One of your earlier mixtape songs yet it really embodies the political messages that you are/have been trying to describe. fire.
"Muhammad Walks" I can't even explain in words how much myself and the people around me can relate to everything Lupe says.
little weapon. the beat drop is disgusting and the lyrics are awesome especially the last verse where he relates it to violent video games
My Favorite song Is 'Fighters' the lyrics are awesome and the beats confuse my feelings lol, when I hear that song I don't know whether to feel happy or sad. that's the song I listen to when i wanna relax and just think about life and stuff. most of your songs inspire me and I thank you for that!.
"Paris, Tokyo" is still my favorite track. I love to travel and this song just reminds me of all my experiences abroad.

According to the table at the bottom of the Wikipedia page for the candela, the dimension for candelas is J (joules). Why is this not W (watts)?
The luminous intensity for light of a particular wavelength λ is given by
$I_v(\lambda) = 683.002·\bar{y}(\lambda)·I_e(\lambda)$
where $I_v(λ)$ is the luminous intensity in candelas, $I_e(λ)$ is the radiant intensity in W/sr and is the standard luminosity function.
Since $\bar{y}(\lambda)$ seems to be unitless and between 0 and 1, and $I_e(\lambda)$ is expressed in W/sr, why is $I_v$ not also W/sr (or J/S since sr is dimensionless)?

Wilmington City Council President Theo Gregory Announces His Support for Marriage Equality
Posted on 04/09/2013 12:15 pm
Wilmington City Council President Theo Gregory said today he supports the effort in Delaware to allow for marriage equality and urged the General Assembly to approve a marriage equality bill this session. Gregory today thanked the NAACP Delaware Chapter, Equality Delaware, Governor Jack Markell, Lt. Governor Matt Denn, Members of the Delaware General Assembly, Attorney General Beau Biden, the State's Congressional Delegation and the many others who have expressed their support for this issue.
The Council President said marriage equality is an important opportunity to further the equal rights mission that he and thousands of others in Delaware and throughout the nation have supported through their lifetimes. Gregory said this matter of equality should be enacted because it will benefit many individuals, children and families throughout the City and State by providing additional social and financial security and stability without affecting anyone's right to think, feel, speak or worship as they choose.
"I, like many people, needed time to ask questions and understand this issue and to learn how same sex marriage would affect people, both straight and gay, throughout our City and State," said the Council President. "I have concluded, as I think any objective and caring person should, that giving two people of the same sex the opportunity to be married furthers the important mission of providing equal rights for all. I have also concluded that marriage equality will not force anyone to change their personal beliefs or their religious principles should they choose not to support this concept. I am proud to stand with the majority of Americans and Delawareans who know that marriage equality is the right thing to do and the right thing to support. I urge our City delegation to the General Assembly to join with their colleagues in bringing Delaware further in line with the principles of freedom, respect, equality and inclusion by approving marriage equality. I also urge Wilmingtonians to contact their legislators and express their support for equal rights and marriage equality."

It's a Jane Austen-esque ivory gown that my mother picked out for me. Although I originally wanted a princess ball gown, I felt in love with it after seeing it on me in the mirror. It's youthful, springy and suitable for the petite type.
It has an open back which adds a sense of elegance and modernity to a retro-looking dress.
- Alterations: The original size was 6, but a few simple alterations made it look custom-made for a 5'3" 110lb me. It's a perfect floor length when I wear 31/2 inch heels, so I'd recommend this gown for small petite brides from 5'1" to 5'5"
- Preservation Method: I had two other outfits for the wedding, so this gown was only wore for 90 minutes on my wedding day. It's dry cleaned after my wedding ceremony.
- Terms of Sale: All Sales Final
- Original Owner: Yes
- Has Original Receipt:
- Location: Queens, NY
- Will Ship to: Other
- Payment Methods Accepted: Other
Please read our BUYER'S GUIDE before purchasing a dress online.

Big day brings 'energy in the air'
Published: Saturday, January 26, 2013 at 7:55 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 27, 2013 at 12:26 a.m.
With picture perfect weather, fans crowded into Daytona International Speedway Saturday for the Rolex 24 At Daytona, packing the garages to see the cars and crews, lining up for autographs from their favorite drivers and watching as the race cars began the 24-hour endurance race.
Photo Galleries
The day started early with more than 1,400 people taking part in a 5K Run and Fun walk around the track, and the carnival atmosphere and steady pace of activities continued throughout the day.
The temperature peaked Saturday at a sunny 78 degrees, sunburning some fans and sending others looking for cooler clothes. Fans and news media soaked up the sun, saying they were happy to leave freezing weather behind in colder parts of the country.
"The weather is perfect, the crowd is awesome," Speedway president Joie Chitwood III said as the race began. "There's energy in the air."
A bald eagle soared overhead during the singing of the national anthem as cars and drivers lined the track, anxious to get the race under way.
Legendary driver Hurley Haywood greeted fans and received special honors from Porsche.
Haywood, who isn't driving this year, served as the grand marshal.
"Racing has been my passion," Haywood told the fans, before giving the command for drivers to start their engines. He toured the area where many of the former winning cars were staged in the Sprint FanZone and said he enjoyed seeing the cars he had steered to victories.
"Each one brings back a wonderful memory," Haywood said.
Fourteen teams of local fans, chefs and others competed in the afternoon chili cookoff, and the Speedway sold out 6,000 sample tickets for the chili in an hour and fifiteen mintues, said Speedway spokesman Andrew Booth. "It was a huge hit."
Claiming the $1,000 prize was a team from Lake Helen called Outdoor Livin'.
The culinary celebration continued as evening settled in. About 1,400 diners crowded into the backstretch suites for the fourth Taste of The 24, to feast on the finest from two dozen area restaurants.
"It's great," said Ed Staudt of Port Orange. "The food is excellent."
It was restaurateur Steve Williams' first Taste. The owner of Cafe Heavenly in New Smyrna Beach said it was a wonderful event. Gesturing at the panorama of the Speedway from his suite, Williams said, "Look at this, it is incredible!"

ZF-4501: Unable to query database.
I am receiving the following error when I attempt to instantiate an extended Zend_Db_Table_Abstract object.
I am able to use the native db2_connect() methods to connect to the database and perform queries.

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/… maybe telling what version of DB2 you are running would be usefull
Is this still an issue? Reporter, have you tried resolving this on the mailing list?
I had circumvented this issue by using the "temporary" Db2 adapter (located in Zendc/Db/Adapter). Yesterday I upgraded our framework to version 1.7.1 and I am getting this error again.
My ini file looks like this:
db.adapter = Db2 db.params.username = MY_USER db.params.password = ************* db.params.schema = MY_SCHEMA db.params.dbname = MY_DB
The bootstrap creates the adapter this way: $config = new Zend_Config_Ini('../application/default/configs/wtu.ini', 'development'); $db = Zend_Db::factory($config->db); Zend_Db_Table::setDefaultAdapter($db);
My system info is as follows: Zend Core Version 2.6.0 PHP Version 5.2.6 Zend Engine Version 2.2.0 Server API apache2handler PHP Configuration File /usr/local/Zend/core/etc/php.ini Server Name 127.0.0.1 Server Software Apache/2.2.6 (Unix) Zend Core/2.6.0 PHP/5.2.6 OS Version OS400 LAB 4 5 0010000907DD Server Port 8000
Hey Simon,
Can you try this code from standard library trunk: http://framework.zend.com/code/changelog/…
Specifically the DB2 adapter in there.
is this still an issue? have you had a chance to try the adapter in 1.7.2?
please reopen if this is still an issue

Delaware's efforts in reducing prescription drug abuse will be strengthened by legislation that received final approval in the General Assembly, June 30.
Senate Bill 119 responds to the recognition that increasing numbers of prescription drug addicts are turning to emergency rooms and urgent care clinics to obtain narcotics as enhanced enforcement has limited previous sources of drugs.
Senate Bill 119 builds on Delaware's prescription drug monitoring program by: Limiting all medical facilities except licensed pharmacies from dispensing more than a 72-hour supply of controlled substance to patients; requiring all 'dispensers' to enter any prescription of a controlled substance into the PMP, just as pharmacies are currently required to do; requiring the Department of Health and Social Services to establish a uniform protocol to guide caregivers regarding the proper disposal of controlled substances upon a patient's death. Hospice care providers would also assist family members and caregivers to inventory and dispose of a patient's remaining supply of controlled substances upon that patient's death
