In what moment in the development of the German language were separable verbs introduced? Also, is there a linguistic reason behind their introduction? Thanks!

Separable verbs have actually not been "introduced" but actually have always been there so to speak.
Linguists posit that separable verbs are a primitive feature of Indo European languages and can even be found in non Indo-European languages (e.g. Hungarian).
You will find separable verbs in:
A. Modern Languages
B. Ancient Languages
First there is the familiar Latin sentence structure where, as in German, infinitive verbs are thrown at the end of the sentence in LIFO order. Did Latin ever have separable verbs? As a matter of fact "Old Latin" and a few other ancient languages did. As I read in this article of which I reproduce here the relevant part.
In Hittite at least the technical term is preverbs. Except for two of them, they are all separable. The same (directional) words can be used either as adverbs, prepositions or preverbs: anda (into), appa (away), arha (outward), katta (downward), para (forward), sara (upward). Looks familiar? Google "up" for "Hittite preverbs" for more.
Maybe the right question then could be "When and how did prepositions become [inseparable] parts of verbs?".
1 At that point, it is worth noting that Hittite is recognised as one of the oldest known Indo-European languages, if not the oldest — with such primitive characteristics as only two genders (animate/inanimate).

The Avetts, who played to a sold-out crowd at UNCW's Trask Coliseum in 2011, will be headliners for the 66th annual Azalea Festival on April 12, festival officers announced Friday. Tickets go on sale online Saturday, Feb. 2.
The group – brothers Scott and Seth Avett, "honorary third brother" Bob Crawford and touring cellist Joe Kwon – will give a 7 p.m. concert on a Friday night at Cape Fear Community College's downtown campus. Standing-room-only tickets are $45 each with no rain date and no refunds.
With a unique mix of Americana sounds – a concoction of bluegrass, country, rock and folk that Our State magazine once termed "porch punk" and "grunge grass" – the Avett Brothers have picked up a growing band of followers since their 2007 breakout album "Emotionalism."
Scott and Seth Avett began playing on their family farm outside of Concord, near Charlotte, and began touring after art studies at East Carolina University and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. They teamed up with Crawford after a chance meeting in the parking lot of a Queen City music store.
The group played frequently in Wilmington at the old Shanakee (now Copper Penny) and the Soapbox in their early years, and their song "I and Love and You" was in the soundtrack for a seventh-season episode of the locally filmed TV series "One Tree Hill."
In 2009, the year Rolling Stone magazine labeled them an "artist to watch," their LP "I and Love and You" hit No. 7 on the Billboard rock album chart and No. 1 on its folk album chart. Appearances followed on the David Letterman, Craig Ferguson and Jimmy Fallon shows. In 2010, they were featured on PBS's long-running "Austin City Limits." In 2011, the Avetts played along with Bob Dylan and Mumford and Sons at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards.
Their latest album, "The Carpenter," debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard Top 200 chart and was nominated for a Grammy in the "Best Americana Album" category.
Derk Richardson in the San Francisco Chronicle wrote that the Avett Brothers have the "heavy sadness of Townes Van Zandt, the light pop concision of Buddy Holly, the tuneful jangle of the Beatles, the raw energy of the Ramones."
"At times it's almost like they're rapping," wrote the StarNews' John Staton in a review of the Avett's 2011 Trask Coliseum show. "What the crowd witnessed was a world-class band at the top of its game."
The 2013 N.C. Azalea Festival will be held April 10-14 in Wilmington. A second festival headliner will be announced at a later date.

Let the word go forth to Spidermen and Princesses alike, that the police tape is going up on my sidewalk at 8 PM for tomorrow night's Holloween Festivities, with a neon sign bearing the words that all generations shall take pause, "NO CANDY"!
That's right. This year I am saving some bucks by not giving out any candy after 8 PM.
Its not like I am the Holloween Scrooge. Oh no. I happen to adore Holloween. The kids are so polite and thankful. I like to give out mini bars of Snickers, Almond Joys, Milky Ways and Butter Fingers. The kids never complain.
But this year will be different. I am drawing the line at 8 PM. Even though I adore kids dressed to the T's as their favorite characters, there is one thing I adore even more. And unfortunately for those kids, they are not even a close second. It's a blow out!
I am sorry but I absolutely love the Miami Dolphins! More than anything other than my Mom and family. If my best friend, who happens to be a fan of whomever we are playing that week, needed my left kidney immediately or he would die and the Dolphins were playing at that moment, I would certainly call his Mom and offer to speak at his funeral.
Come tomorrow night, we are scheduled to host the Cincinnati Bengals at 8:25 PM. So that means at 8 PM sharp, the police tape goes up and there shall be no one within earshot of me. I will require no distractions.
Yes, I know, I can put some candy outside in a bucket or large tupperware bowl with a sign "Take One". But guess what? Then I will hear the kids coming up the walk and, more importantly, they will be able to hear me.
Depending on how this game goes, I could be shouting obscenities at the TV the very moment that adorable Princess reaches for that tempting Snickers bar. No parent wants their little kids joyously traversing my walkway only to have to grab them and haul them away because they think some nut job lives inside. Which can actually happen, again, depending on how this game goes.
So for the childrens' sake, I will not give them any treats this year after 8 PM.
Thank God I don't live on the West Coast, because then this game would be starting at 5:25 PM. Peak Trick or Treat hours commencing at kick off!
I would have to move. I kid you not. Pull up the Van Lines trailer, wheel out the furniture and point her east immediately!

Understanding your organization's Windows software licenses can be challenging. Windows licensing missteps are common, but Microsoft and our partners are here to help you. If your organization happens to be the victim of any licensing mistakes, we can offer easy ways to fix them.
If you're unsure whether or not you're using properly licensed Windows software today, see below for a list of some common licensing issues.
Genuine Windows is published by Microsoft and can help your organization stay competitive and maintain its stellar reputation. When all of your Microsoft software is genuine and properly licensed, your company has:
Protection from the risks that can be associated with counterfeit software, such as viruses, spyware, and other malicious software. Genuine Windows gives you peace of mind that your critical business information is safer and more secure.
Reliability you can count on through reduced downtime caused by system failures and security breaches. Only genuine Windows is supported by Microsoft and provides access to all updates and optional downloads.
Performance that is faster and gives your company a leg up. With genuine Windows you save valuable time needed to complete business tasks and don't need to worry about unwanted licensing interruptions.
Confidence that your company is fully in compliance with Microsoft Software License Terms and is seen as a trustworthy, reputable business partner by your employees, partners, and customers.
Companies like yours want to do the right thing, but some are just unaware of the facts about Windows licensing. Here are some of the most common licensing mistakes:
Windows Volume Licenses are for upgrades only and require a qualifying full operating system to be installed on the PC as a prerequisite. Companies often purchase Windows Volume Licensing Agreements and mistakenly apply them to computers that don't have a full operating system already installed. Windows Volume Licenses provide the opportunity to extend the life of a previously acquired full Windows desktop license, or other qualifying license, by upgrading to a newer version of Windows.
Next Steps: If your organization fits this scenario, Microsoft and our trusted business partners offer a portfolio of solutions that are easy to implement and can help make sure your company is properly licensed and smoothly running a Professional edition of Windows. See the table in the "How do I correct a licensing mistake?" section on this page.
Windows Volume Licenses require an existing, qualifying operating system installed as a prerequisite on each PC. Companies often acquire PCs with Windows Starter, Home, or other consumer editions preinstalled, and then mistakenly apply a new Windows Volume License to upgrade to a Windows Professional edition. Except in the case of academic institutions, Volume Licensing Agreements can only be applied to Professional editions of Windows operating systems.
Next Steps: If your organization fits this scenario, Microsoft and our trusted partners offer a variety of easy ways to help make sure your company is properly licensed and smoothly running Windows 7 Professional or Windows 8.1 Pro editions.
Companies sometimes discover that they are unintentionally using PCs with counterfeit operating systems. This is a common occurrence when PCs are acquired without Windows or other operating systems pre-installed through a trusted PC manufacturer or in a full retail package. Windows Volume Licenses require genuine operating systems as a prerequisite.
Genuine Windows software is published by Microsoft and supported by either Microsoft or a trusted partner. Only genuine Windows helps you reduce downtime caused by system failures and security breaches, and offers you the reliability and performance you expect from Windows.
It's helpful to know what to look for when purchasing a PC. If you feel you might be using counterfeit software, Microsoft can help make sure you're properly licensed and running the right version of Windows to meet your needs.
For the above scenarios and other licensing issues, Microsoft offers several easy licensing solutions to help make sure your company is using properly licensed, genuine Windows software. All of these solutions are meant for use on an existing PC's previously installed counterfeit or otherwise improperly licensed copy of Windows. Refer to the information in the table to learn more and get genuine today.
In the future, keep in mind that the best and most economical way to get a proper Windows license is typically to buy it preinstalled on your PC.
Note: Pricing information varies by geography and is available via your Microsoft partner.

If Windows 7 on your home PC fails online validation, the Get Genuine Online Kit is available worldwide as an online solution. If you access downloads on the Microsoft Download Center or on the Microsoft Windows Update website, you might be prompted to complete genuine validation for Windows, which performs a validation check to verify that Windows installed on your PC is genuine. If validation determines that Windows on your PC isn't genuine, you'll see information about why validation failed, helpful troubleshooting tips, and how you can get genuine Windows.
If Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 on your home PC fails online activation, Get Genuine Windows is available worldwide as an online, in-product solution. You can purchase a valid Windows product key right from your PC by going to PC settings, and then tapping or clicking Windows Activation. You also have the option to download Windows and purchase optional back up media.
Volume activation for Windows is a required part of Windows 7 deployment that helps IT professionals automate and manage the product activation process when deploying Windows 7 in the managed IT environment for your business. There are two methods of volume activation: Key Management Service (KMS) and Multiple Activation Key (MAK).
KMS is the default method of volume activation, which provides the capability to host activation in a managed environment.
MAK is primarily for businesses that don't have the capabilities to host their own activation server; instead, MAK provides the capability to use the Microsoft-hosted activation services to activate each eligible system.
For most volume licensing customers, your IT professional will use volume activation tools and methods to deploy Windows within the IT environment for your business. There are some tools to get you started:
The Windows Activation Technologies in Windows 7 overview guide outlines the activation and validation experience in Windows 7 for customers interested in learning more about volume activation and genuine Windows.
Step-by-step guidance for IT professionals in your business is available in the Volume Activation Deployment Guide.

Sure, giving feels good, particularly at this time of year. And it feels even better when your donation pays off for you, too. "Both you and the cause can benefit," says Stacy Palmer, editor of the Chronicle of Philanthropy. "That's how philanthropy in this country was born." Whether it's by establishing an annuity linked to a charity, minimizing the future taxes on your estate or giving your kids an advantage in the college-application process, there are many ways to give and get simultaneously. Here's how to maximize both your gift and your reward.
Giving to charity
Charitable giving has always been associated with two types of getting back. First, there's the tax deduction you receive for making a donation. To take this, you must give to a recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization (check its status), and you must itemize when you file your taxes. You also need documentation: For any gifts of $250 or more, the IRS requires a receipt from the organization. For donations under that amount, to claim a deduction, you must have a canceled check, a credit card statement or a receipt from the charity.
The second way to get something back when you give to an organization is by establishing a charitable annuity or a charitable remainder trust. In both cases you donate a sizable amount of money or property, and the charity agrees to pay you a set sum say, 6 percent of your donation every year until your death (how that income will be taxed will vary according to your age and the way the annuity was funded). The bonus? You can take the tax deduction for the donation now. A charitable annuity is easy to set up; often the organization's staff can walk you through the transaction. A charitable remainder trust, however, requires an attorney to handle the paperwork because it is customized to your wishes: You may be able to control how the gift will be used or hold on to your donated property until you die. And you may give different types of assets, such as cash, stocks that pay dividends (which you can continue to receive), artwork, even a house that you want to stay in.
Both the charitable annuity and the charitable remainder trust are useful in a bad economy, Palmer says, because you can get a tax deduction for giving away assets you're having trouble selling, like wine collections, art or real estate. The receiving organization can sell them at a bargain price (either now or after your death, depending on your wishes).
Giving to your children
We give money to our kids for lots of reasons. We may want to help them buy their first home, start a new career or put their own children through college. We also do it for estate-planning purposes--to keep money in the family by making sure our heirs pay as little tax as possible on the assets they inherit.
Some background: In 2010 the estate tax was briefly phased out. But it will come back in 2011 (except in cases where one spouse receives assets from the other; gifts of that kind will continue to be tax free and have no limits). As I write, the 2011 estate- and gift-tax exemption will be $1 million, meaning that every individual will be able to pass on $1 million in total assets during life or at death without burdening the recipients (who mare or may not be family members). Any money you leave over $1 million, even if you're doling out small amounts to numerous people, will be taxed up to 55 percent. These numbers will probably change, however. The Obama administration would like to increase to $3.5 million the tax-free limit on assets that you can bequeath, and cap the tax rate for any excess at 45 percent; we're not likely to know the rate until after press time.
But you can lower that future tax bill by making annual gifts. Individuals can give as much as $13,000 in cash or other assets every year to any other individual without filing a gift tax return. If you and your spouse have two kids, each of you could pass $13,000 a year to each child—and in one easy transaction funnel $52,000 out of your estate and into their bank accounts. Do this 10 years in a row and it will add up to more than half a million dollars, plus any future appreciation, that won't be subject to tax upon your death.
A caveat: To help minimize any resentment later, explain to your children that you'll continue the funding as long as you can and that if a change in your finances forces you to stop, you'll give them as much notice as possible. If you don't think you'll be able to write those checks forever, you could do it sporadically and surprise them. (It's not an option to put the money into a secret account in their names.)
Another way to shield your children from estate taxes is with life insurance. When you die, the insurance proceeds pass tax free to your kids, who can use them to pay the taxes on your estate. The key, says estate-planning attorney Robert Clofine, is not to own the life insurance yourself, because then the assets will be factored into your estate. Instead, put the life insurance into a trust set up to benefit your heirs, and name someone else, who has the children's interests in mind, as trustee.
Giving to your alma mater
Colleges make it easy not just to give a simple cash donation but also to set up scholarship funds. Although endowing a full scholarship generally costs $125,000 to $500,000, you can often endow a partial one for $25,000. How much control you have over it tends to correlate with the amount of money you give (more cash = more influence, such as being able to name the scholarship or specify the selection criteria), and generally no lawyers are necessary. You can get details from your alumni relations department.
Parents may wonder if giving money to a college will help their teenager get a coveted acceptance letter come springtime. Short answer: probably not. There is no standard amount you can donate that will pry open the doors of a top-tier school for a child who has low test scores and poor grades, says Michael Goran of IvySelect College Consulting. That said, a history of giving can tip the scales a bit, especially if you also volunteer your time to the college.

Sunburn is a visible reaction of the skin's exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, the invisible rays that are part of sunlight. Ultraviolet rays can also cause invisible damage to the skin. Excessive and/or multiple sunburns cause premature aging of the skin and lead to skin cancer. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the US, and exposure to the sun is the leading cause of skin cancer.
The following are the most common symptoms of a sunburn. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
Severe sunburns may cause a person to go into shock, which is characterized by fainting, low blood pressure, and severe weakness. Immediate medical attention is necessary if this occurs. The symptoms of a sunburn may resemble other skin conditions. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
Sunburns usually heal themselves in a couple of weeks. However, depending on the severity and location of the sunburn, the following may be recommended. Always consult your physician for more information.
If the sunburn is severe and blisters occur, consult your physician right away.

E arly schooling for her child is one of the most difficult challenges a working mother can face. Ideally, your child will spend the time away from you in a loving, creative and healthy environment, a place that will reinforce the lessons learned at home and in school. That's what Susie Thom's PEEK Program is designed to provide.
Ten years ago, Park City public schools only offered a half-day kindergarten; Susie augmented an old college friend's education business by instituting full as well as half-day programs. Now, The PEEK program offers Kindergarten, preschool, summer camps and after-school programs with pick-up available from all Park City public schools. Located in a landmark Park City log cabin at the mouth of Pinebrook, The PEEK Program has become a Park City mainstay.
"I've been lucky enough to have been surrounded with generous, smart, education-minded women who have been willing to share their knowledge," says Susie. "It is through this open-door policy approach that my business has been able to thrive over these years. My focus is, 'How can I make this school better, safer, more creative, educationally sound and a reliable resource for parents?' If I can continuously do these things I believe the rest will follow."

Safety Tips Offered for Excessive Heat
Posted on 07/16/2013 4:45 pm
In light of the excessive heat expected for tomorrow and the next few days, City residents are urged by the Mayor's Office and the Wilmington Office of Emergency Management to protect themselves and their families from heat exposure and heat-related illnesses.
According to the National Weather Service, the heat index over the next few days might exceed 1050degrees Fahrenheit, with Thursday and Friday being the hottest days. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity may combine to create a dangerous situation in which heat illnesses are possible.
City residents are urged to drink plenty of water, stay in an air-conditioned environment, and stay out of the sun. Check on elderly relatives and neighbors. Make sure pets have plenty of cool water and bring them indoors. Never leave any person or animal in a vehicle for any length of time. Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside; wear light or loose fitting clothing when possible. Anyone overcome by the heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke; heat stroke is an emergency – call 911.
The Mayor's Office of Constituent Services has a limited number of new electric fans available to elderly City residents (55 or older) free of charge on a first-come, first-served basis.

Refs call it 5 seconds after 8+ seconds.
I am not a fan of Carmelo's game they call him the purest scorer but he seems to take stupid shots and even if he keeps missing hes taking the same shots. Very low IQ has all the talent in the world and he plays lazy as hell especially getting back on defense.
still in this!!! this is when D'antoni screws up vs another coach
anyone remember when t-mac had 13 points in 35 seconds for the rockets?
Rekon Melo has it in him? haha
If bulls only got 10 offensive rebounds instead of 19, Knicks would be winning.
Melo bonehead foul... wtf
2 shots 4 melo, in the 4th?Wow.

fourth in series of work inspired by ordinary things, abstraction and light.
I live and work in rural France exhibiting in galleries and outside in the public context. Although I have often used paint, I am constantly drawn into making constructs, installations, site-specific work and using found objects which throw up new directions and possibilities, constantly feeding off the mark-making, drawing and photography. As a printmaker, I have worked on projects for artists such as Howard Hodgkin, Gillian Ayres, JIm Dine, Victor Pasmore, Joe Tilson and many others.

The "30 Seconds To Mars" singer hit the deep blue sea in Capri with his bandmate and brother, Shannon, along with some friends. The group had a blast hanging out on a yacht and then Jared went into the water to go for a ride on a jet ski. However, the actor's first attempt of getting on the water vehicle was not successful, as he slipped off and fell into the water. Eventually Jared was able to get on the jet ski and made some waves.

Who Wants One?
Latest News
Who Wants One?Posted byMay 11, 2011Filed under:1672
My name is Mike, and when "I'm Beamin'" first came out, I had just started my summer job as a midnight-6 A.M. janitor at a gym. Wasalu's words colored in the lines of my life story (came from a small town but accomplished big things, oppressed by many small minds because of my food allergy), and when I heard this melody, a fire was rekindled in me. I went and applied for jobs for hours before I rode the bus home after my shift every day (I'm a pre-med student), and sure enough, I got a very high-profile job taking care of intensive care unit patients. Lupe basically got me into medical school, and every day that summer, I'd walk out of work, loosen up the tie, put on my shades, and sing out loud..."They said my future was dark / see me now / just look around / I'M BEAMIN'"! Now they care, and I truly have this song to thank for that little extra mental boost that beautiful music can bring.
favorite song has to be put you on game! lupe has a way with words that makes me read lyrics like im reading a book!
Currently....."State Run Radio" - I have been around the globe and witnessed firsthand various forms of propaganda that are attempts to brainwash citizens. Anti-West, Anti-Islam, Pro-government, etc. But the song does recognize that the media of the US champions music that is the least disruptive to the established order. Want an example? Compare the Youtube views of "Show Goes On" vs. "Words I Never Said." I understand the latter is a newer video, yet it took the former almost a fraction of the time to reach the 1 mil mark.
Of course it's hard to choose one, but I have always said hip-hop has saved my life is up there as one of the greatest hip-hop songs ever. It brings light back to the real reason for hip-hop. It is a lifestyle, and has helped so many people, it is putting real life and struggles to music. For those people who say hip-hop is dead, I think Lupe disproves that, and this song proves that.
Hard to choose but if I had to it'd have to be ALL BLACK EVERYTHING One of many favorites! No doubt. Sick beat, meaningful lyrics. But I haven't heard a Lupe Fiasco song I didn't like, and I don't plan on it.
Favorite lupe song is Till I Get There, the song is very inspirational, calming, and it thought me to look at things positively and being real at the same time. it is one of these songs that makes you want to be a better version of yourself, and be hopeful that you will eventually get there, of course I might hit some downs and bumps, but Ill Get There. I hope you release this song as one of you singles Lupe. And am a big fan from a far away land, I hope you come to Abu Dhabi or Dubai one day and perform for us. Am going to be honest with you, I usually dont buy music online, but youre the only one that I bought all three albums, to humbly support you and what you believe in an artistic matter, and bring out all the realness that every one ignores. I hope I get the poster Lupe, so I can brag about it to my friends, and dont forget you have a BIG fan base here!
"Fighters" because it got me through an emotionally abusive 3yr relationship. The Cool is one of those albums that changed my life.
Also "Daydream" has so much soul, so inventive of a beat and rhythm combined with his lyrics make your hair stand on end. Rolling around the Chicago blasting this song has been a Summer tradition of mine for years now.
My favorite song by Lupe Fiasco is Letting Go (Feat. Sarah Green) (Produced by The Future) because of the mixing and effects used on the vocals, his lyrical content, the way he featured Sarah Green because he didn't just have her sing a chorus and then rap 3 verses, he worked her vocals into the song to compliment what he came up with. And the production was awesome. Lupe really wrote something that fit the mood and feeling of the intrumental, from the chorus to each verse and the third verse where he switched his melody it was amazing. So for those reasons, "Letting Go" is my favorite Lupe Fiasco song.
This one for me is easy, while I love the coolest, all black everything (esp. the first verse), and He say she say, for me its "and he gets the girl". It reminds me of the first time I asked a chick out. Me and my big glasses trying to talk to one of the poplar chicks. I had confidence issues and I remember the moment sounding just like the dude in the first verse. The first time I heard this song I laughed like hell, I was like "yo that was me singing the choirs trying to holla at old girl Lupe is crazy for this one. So for me fav song by Lupe.
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!.
Difficult to choose, love the whole album! Coming Up is my ringtone...tehe. But I think I would choose The Show Goes on as it is the first one of the album I heard and loved it straight away :)
My favorite song would have to be "Paris, Tokyo" because it makes me remember why I'm trying to hard because hopefully one day i'll be able to travel aboard. :)
Hello Lupe, my favorite song is "I don't wanna care right now" feat. MDMA. The refrain is very melodic and fresh and your rap-parts give the song an amazing note. :)
My all-time favorite Lupe song is Daydreamin'. No matter how many times you hear it, no matter what mood you're in, Daydreamin' will always play to the point to where it seems as if it's the first time you've heard it and that you're having a good day. Plus it's from his first album which makes it more appealing to the fact that its still is better than anything that Lil' Wayne, Drake, or Kid Cudi have put out to this day. FnF UP!
"Dumb it Down" This is one of my favorite Lupe songs..period. Lupe is letting everyone know that he doesn't care what the critics say. "I'm fearless now hear this i'm earless" he doesn't listen to people who tell him to "dumb it down"
Words I Never Said It's the song that woke me up. It helped ignite the revolutionary in me and led me to actually get up and do something in my community. I'm actually making a difference, instead of just focusing on my future i'm looking into the future of the world. I'm making a difference and i can honestly say that that song is the reason why i wanted to. The emotion and the passion in that song is incredible. Skylar hypnotizes you with her voice while Lu entraps you with his words.
The Show Goes On- this one will never get old. It reached me at time when I needed the most. I just want to Say Thank You Lu!!
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 lupe song is between hurt me soul and lupe the killer. everything is in sync. beat lyricsim and the emotion of hurt me soul is so deep and relatable as weel
My favorite song is daydreamin' its one of my favorite songs lyrically. He's a very visual and story telling artist and this song for me is for when everyone is f'n up and I feel like no one is making any sense. But with that said I will always be a "Kick push coast" girl, that song came out at the perfect time in my life and every song after. {Love Lasers its definitely part of my college collection!!}
he's not just a good songwriter, he's a good ALBUM writer and performer. I'd love to have a signed poster!
Hip-Hop Saved My Life. The song same out when I was going through a rough patch in my life and it really got me through everything.

For the more information about the geologic resources of the National Park Service, please visit http://www.nature.nps.gov/geology/.
Abandoned Mineral Lands Program
The reclamation of abandoned mineral lands is an expensive and important land management issue. Like other federal and state land-managing state agencies, the National Park Service is committing resources to a comprehensive nationwide inventory of abandoned mineral lands. Furthermore, the service supports the reform of mining laws, takes a leading role in drafting the general permit (under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) for storm water runoff in abandoned mineral sites, and works with the Department of the Interior to carry out AML initiatives.
View a photographic overview of AML in the National Park System
AML Inventory and Statistics in the National Park System
Abandoned mines are in 126 National Park System units. An ongoing inventory in the units so far revealed an estimated 3,100 sites with about 8,400 mine openings, piles of tailings, and hazardous structures and thousands of hectares of scarred lands.
Summary of Abandoned Mineral Lands by NPS Region and by Park Unit, 2011 [pdf - 64KB]
The National Park Service has an on-going Abandoned Mineral Land Program and is an active participant with the broader inter-agency and national AML program associations.
Abandoned Mineral Lands Management Issues
Management of AML sites involves the following issues:
- Site Safety - Visitors can encounter a number of hazards at AML sites. The NPS has an active program to try to mitigate hazards and place warning signs at abandoned mine sites.
- AML sites can be the source of several environmental contaminants. The NPS tries to insure that environmental problems at the site are addressed.
- Preservation of historic features whether they are old buildings, old structures, prehistoric mining tools, or evidence of particularly remarkable engineering accomplishments. The NPS works closely with State Historic Preservation Officers to ensure that significant cutural values are preserved.
- Protection of habitat for threatened and endangered species. In many parks, abandoned mines are habitat for wildlife including bats, woodrats, and crustaceans. The NPS tries to insure that species are not impacted by either curious visitors or restoration efforts.

Bullying turns deadly
September 18, 2013
Among the most heart-wrenching and deeply troubling stories in the news last week was that of a 12-year-old Florida girl who committed suicide after being bullied for nearly a year....
....when I saw the headline, God forbid, I thought the MDN had a story about Trayvon beating on Zimmerman.....

Bullying is even in our own backyards whether we like it or not. It's even gone so far as professional bullying and their victims that nobody does anything about these professional bullies.

We learn the didactic from our leaders. We pushed and bullied our way into Afghanistan, Iraq, and now Syria is in the cross hairs.
Should be no big surprise to anybody that bullying works if you want death and destruction.
Worked for Bush I, then the 911 blowback to return the bullying in kind, then Bush II bullying, each time in Iraq, then Obama's bullying using drones in Afghanistan, so the real moral lesson learned is that bullying can't be stopped and it causes death. The death counts were ignored. One death is a tragedy, a million, a statistic said Stalin.
We reap what we sow.

"Appropriately, most school systems have anti-bullying programs and policies. Almost undoubtedly, so did the district in which Sedwick attended school"
But woe to the man who actually enforces it or any other rules at the school.
Just remember, the way the school system is set up lends itself to this kind of thing. Go read some John Taylor Gatto and set your minds free.

Only the fair objective minds can stop bullying. Many parents protect their bully because they are of influence or see no fault in their child (very common). Overzealous enforcement will cause many to refuse any action to enforce it. The gun issue is similar. You lose your right to hunt and fish if late on child support and anyone who has been through divorce might know how twisted and one sided the system is--hence "dead beat dads" not "moms". Many now want to deny guns to those with mental problems. Is that fair if they have never abused their gun rights? All vets with PTSD would lose their gun rights after they served. Is that what we want? No way. It should be limited to those who have abused their gun rights. True bullies should be identified and handled, however, minor incidents like "burns" or pranks or those things that occur in the boy/girl dating game which are not serious should be overlooked. We all know the real bullies in our lives. They ar

John Taylor Gatto is a fave with me. He wrote "The Underground History of American Education" and "Dumbing Us Down" among others.
A former award-winning teacher with nearly 30 years experience, Gatto definitely possesses an informed look from the trenches....er, hallowed halls...of education. He's been there, he knows.

Our society is much to blame for the bullies among our children. It is a simple matter of disrespect for another. It is government that will disregard the public vote. It is pushing others around because you can through money or position. It is hostefest giving pioneer village the boot. It is frivolous lawsuits. Our children witness it and hear it when parents discuss public matters at the dinner table. True damaging bullies should be dealt with don't expect miracles because we have a separate standard of law for the wealthy.

Interesting idea...giving the powers that be in the school advance notice; tell them this problem is going on and if they do nothing about it, "I will".
Probably still get you arrested and put in the pokey today.
Wow, locomotive has read Underground History of American Education? That's worth going up a few notches in my book.

The 2013-14 UCLA women's basketball team held its annual photo shoot at a studio in downtown Los Angeles this past weekend with professional photographer Christopher Greco, marking the third straight year that the team has partnered with Greco and his creative team.
"I wanted to portray our young ladies in a very different, new and edgy way,"Close said. "As we went through the experience, I saw what a team bonding experience it was and how important it was to celebrate our student-athletes as young ladies and not just as basketball players."
That sentiment was also shared by redshirt junior Corinne Costa.
"It is a great experience for the team to get made up and take pictures and show another side of us," Costa said. "It is also fun to hang out with the new players and get to know them a little better. It is a fun day where the whole team gets to bond."
The majority of the images will be used throughout the year to promote the UCLA women's basketball team. Some of the images will be utilized in game programs and the media guide while others will be used for marketing purposes via social media sites."
I think it is really cool that our program makes such a big deal out of us," sophomore guard Kari Korver said. "We all have a great time getting dressed up and having our photos taken to show off our feminine side. It is really a fun day."
Coach Close said that many of the images will be used to help market the program, especially in the area of recruiting, but that pales in comparison for what it does for the team chemistry and for the self esteem and the celebration of the young ladies on the squad.
"I think it is important for our fans to see the femine side of women's basketball," redshirt junior guard/forward Rhema Gardner said. "They usually just see us in our jerseys and baggy clothes. It's a great opportunity and we enjoy it every year."
This year, the studio was larger than in the past and came complete with air conditioning and Wi-Fi. The larger studio also provided more stations for hair and make-up as well as for lighting and backdrops. The Wi-Fi also allowed the student-athletes to do their homework during downtime throughout the day as most are in summer school.
The players had an 8:00 a.m. call time for hair and makeup. There were a total of three photo stations, one with jerseys, one with business attire and one station where each player could showcase her personality with clothes and props that represented their interests and hobbies.
"I have never done a photo shoot quite like this," freshman forward Paulina Hersler said. "I have done smaller ones with my mom. I really had a lot of fun being a model for a day."

Moving technology services to the cloud has become commonplace over the last few years. But as government agencies weigh the pros and cons of various big-name cloud providers, another option has begun to surface — open source cloud computing.
One such platform is OpenStack, created by NASA and Rackspace Hosting, a data storage solution provider. Launched in July 2010, OpenStack has grown to become a global collaboration of developers and cloud computing technologists producing ubiquitous code for public and private clouds.
Now featuring almost 4,000 people and more than 178 companies, the community's goal is to develop a cloud standard and scalable cloud operating system that any organization can use to offer services on typical computing hardware. The technology is composed of various projects that become the components that make up a cloud infrastructure.
According to Jim Curry, general manager of Rackspace Cloud Builders, the need for open source cloud technology was spurred by stagnation in the cloud provider market a few years ago. Prior to OpenStack, there was concern in the industry that the market for cloud platforms was moving too slowly, Curry said, in-part because providers such as Amazon and Rackspace were building their own proprietary systems.
The problem was that by choosing to go with one specific provider, a customer could theoretically get locked into a cloud model and would be unable to easily switch off if a need to transition arose. But if a customer's cloud was instead based on an open source cloud platform, that situation might not be as big of an issue, and may even spur growth in the cloud market.
"The answer became obvious — let's pursue an open development path," Curry said. "As a company, it allowed us to get the world working on our problems together; it allowed people to come in with common issues they were trying to resolve and try to build a common cloud platform."
Rackspace had made some progress on the storage end of cloud technology but lacked development on the computing side of an open source cloud platform. That's where NASA came in. The federal agency was having the same concerns and issues as Rackspace about how to use and develop cloud most efficiently.
At the time, NASA was in the midst of constructing its own proprietary cloud system called "Nebula." NASA had been working on the system since 2008 and had made strides with the compute portion of the technology, which they dubbed "Nova," but lacked advancement on cloud storage capacity. So the union between Rackspace and NASA was a natural marriage of technology that spawned OpenStack.
Ray O'Brien, former project manager of Nebula and current acting CIO of NASA's Ames Research Center, said it took about a month of cutting through red tape and obtaining the proper clearances to get the partnership off the ground. NASA and Rackspace first met in mid-June 2010 and federal government approval was granted in the weeks following, ushering in a new era of sorts in the way NASA works with the outside community.
O'Brien said the story is a great public-private partnership case study. NASA projects usually involve a contract or grant agreement. But that structure doesn't apply well to an open source endeavor, so O'Brien's team had to get a waiver from standard policy to make the collaboration a reality.
Getting that approval wasn't easy, however. NASA had used open source products in its projects before and also developed its own open source technologies and released them to the public in the past. But the agency didn't have a policy that governed how to partake in community development that was predicated on working hand-in-hand with people virtually over networks from a variety of different companies.
"That was new and that was a challenge to get that waiver," O'Brien admitted. "There's a group here at NASA that wants to use the success that came out of OpenStack to push for policy revision that will allow this to happen on a broader scale within NASA."
The benefits of open source cloud computing center on flexibility, particularly for state and local government agencies already vested or looking to move into a cloud infrastructure.
Curry said there are two things state and local officials should know about open source cloud computing. First, it's an emerging standard that will be included in the various vendor-created cloud platforms. Second, in the future, he believes government IT personnel will be able to implement their own cloud platforms instead of relying on vendors and potentially high licensing costs.

The first time I ever heard of Divinity is from a episode of Paula Dean, no joke. She was doing candy and cookies that day, and she made these white, whipped looking things with pecans in them. I was listening to the show from the kitchen (I was cooking myself) and didn't see the prep, otherwise I would have realized she was making candy. Paula Dean aside, I always viewed divinity as a southern thing, as I've never seen it around where I am, and my west coast family never made the stuff.
When I saw this in the Wilbur Chocolate Company's gift shop. I knew I had to try it. I was surprised when I actually saw it with my own eyes, and it looks just like my beloved torrone! It's a pretty white colored base studded with nuggets of pecans. It's really pretty and I was excited to try it.
The divinity's texture is surprisingly soft and fluffy. It's like a extremely fresh marshmallow in your mouth, but a little more dense.
The flavor is very sweet with a hint of vanilla. You immediately get the buttery taste of the pecans, that accent the wonderful sweetness. I admit I was surprised as to how complex it tasted with such a simple list of ingredients. As this is my first taste of divinity, I'm pretty impressed This is awesome.
I think now I'm going to try and make this at home as there's many recipes for that. I just have to wait for a day when it's not humid out. Which mean, ick, I'm going to be waiting a while…

The Method
"The customer is the end of the production line" - Dr. W. Edwards Deming
By definition, quality control is the elimination of variation. Deming said that
the use of statistical controls would give manufacturers greater control over assembly
lines by spotlighting flaw patterns so that the problem could be easily solved.
But Deming was no mere statistician.
Deming's philosophy on quality control is simple. He believed in abolishing spot
checks and emphasizing quality from the beginning, from the top. He strongly argued
that most errors and defects are the result of bad systems, not bad workers. His
system eliminates adversarial relationships between departments and empowers workers.
It promotes the anticipation and creation of customer needs well ahead of time.
He chastised companies for rewarding higher productivity, as opposed to higher quality

Some lecture notes I was reading through claimed that a pressure pulse propagates through a liquid-filled tube (blood in a vein) with the speed
where $A$ is the cross-sectional area, $\rho$ the density and $P$ the pressure (which pressure?).
How can this result be derived? Why would the pressure vary with area? I suppose I'm missing some assumptions or misunderstand the expression.
FYI, the expression is also written, without explanation of the variables, as
$$c=\sqrt{\frac{Eh}{2\rho R}}$$

A Quick Review of Important Auto Insurance Coverage For Cyclists
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
By Megan Hottman, TheCyclist-Lawyer.com
Author: Megan Hottman
Let me preface this article by saying that it PAINS me to send business to insurance companies. They do not need any more premium dollars, they are quite profitable as it is. BUT – for cyclists, it is critical to be sure you are sufficiently insured, in case the unexpected and unfortunate ever occurs.
Right now, go get your auto policy "DEC" page(s). Seriously. I'll wait. Go get it. This is the page that comes on the front of your policy; it line items your coverage and premiums page per item. Grab the DEC page for each vehicle/scooter/motorcycle you own, as well as those for any "resident-relatives" with whom you share your residence (typically defined as related by blood or marriage).
We are looking for two specific types of coverage that come up in almost every case involving a cyclist injured by a motorist (i.e. there is at least one motor vehicle involved). We are looking for MPC (med pay coverage) and UM/UIM (uninsured/underinsured coverage).
I hope you find that on each policy, you do in fact have MPC and UM/UIM coverage. If you do not, please call your agent to discuss your options. Here's why:
MEDPAY coverage –provides medical benefits coverage in any accident involving a motor vehicle, regardless of fault. It usually costs $2-4 per month, and it provides you $5,000 (typically, though it can be more) in medical benefits. This can cover copays or health insurance deductibles, as well as medical bills from the ambulance or emergency room. Your massage, chiropractor, acupuncture, dry needling bills can all be covered too. Any medical expense you incur from the accident is covered, so long as it is medically necessary and reasonable, up to the policy limits.
UM/UIM coverage – if you are hit by a car while riding your bike and the car drives off (aka, a hit-and-run), your Uninsured motorist coverage kicks in. If you are hit by a motorist with minimal insurance coverage (i.e. $25,000, the minimum coverage required in Colorado) and your damages far exceed those limits, you would first recover policy limits from the driver's insurance company and then you would pursue a UIM (under-insured) claim with your own auto insurer. This can be critical, as often in cyclist-motorist collisions, the cyclist suffers extensive bodily injury and incurs very high medical bills. As a result of their injuries they may also miss a lot of work. UM/UIM coverage will pay for things like medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
Moments after Megan's crash.
In addition, if you want to increase possible coverage, for these or any other claims you may be filing, you can add an "umbrella" policy to all of your existing policies. To add an additional $1 million in insurance protection will run around $300 per year. This will stack on top of any automobile or homeowner coverage you have on your existing policies. In the event of a catastrophic accident involving a cyclist who incurs permanent and life-altering injuries, these umbrellas can be the difference between getting back on one's feet financially, and filing bankruptcy resulting from the medical bills.
Call your agent to review your policies and discuss options. Keep in mind it is up to the cyclist (or policyholder) to initiate the above claims with the auto insurer. These claims should be opened as soon after the accident as possible, to prevent any possible denial from the insurer due to delay or failure to provide adequate notice of the accident. If you plan to hire an attorney, let them initiate these claims on your behalf.
One final note: If each vehicle is listed on a separate policy and you pay a separate premium, your policies can be "stacked" pursuant to Colorado law. This means that if you have 3 cars, each with a separate policy and premium, your $5000 MPC coverage may triple to $15,000, for example. Often, insurance companies will include anti-stacking language in their policy. It may or may not valid under Colorado law. A thorough review of your entire policy is often needed to determine coverage applicable to the circumstances.

Uninsured motorist and worker's comp
Submitted by Nick Orticelle (not verified) on
I will be calling you soon about options for the following scenario, but this may be a special case that may, or has, happen(ed) to someone. Figured I'd pose the situation here.
I was hit in November...riding my bike while on the job. I was deemed to not be at fault in the accident. It turns our Worker's Compensation kicked in for medical payments, so my auto insurance says they had no say in the ordeal (but would have if not for Worker's Comp).
Now...to make matters worse, the driver was uninsured (thankfully did not drive away). I have my medical bills being paid my compensation, but my bike is not covered at all. What would you do in this situation? I have ideas, hence me wanting to call you, but I'll leave my opinions out of it.

Laptop Battery,Do you kown how to care it
You have been holding on towards same exact laptop personal computer for a great deal more than a yr now, and in fact, is very concerning the overall performance it provides you. Then 1 day, you found out that the laptop personal computer batteries have been unable to retain energy in the charger. You start to wonder how that is so because you only purchased the personal computer right away the shelf just over a yr ago. Well, perhaps it is time for yourself to understand some laptop battery conservation recommendations to make certain that this scenario will certainly not happen for you again.
One on the cardinal errors that most laptop personal computer managers make is leaving a powered charger related for your laptop while the personal computer is turned off. As you know, chargers have a habit of continually placing energy in to the batteries to get retained by them even although the battery is already completely charged. What occurs then is the actuality that your laptop personal computer batteries could be overcharged and also this might be a cause for it to put on down quickly right up until it will no extended possess the potential to retain energy that is provided to it through the charger.
Unless you are charging invested batteries, you should make certain to unplug your laptop personal computer charger out of your wall socket, or from any electric outlet it is related to whenever you turn away your laptop. that is in order to avoid the batteries in your laptop personal computer from obtaining overcharged. You should also remember to utilize the energy on the battery towards fullest. This means that you just need to make certain that the battery is completely invested prior to you even begin charging it again. If your laptop personal computer battery is half total and you demand it again at that point, you could be exposing it towards danger of getting overcharged.
Try to not expose your laptop to severe problems like a getting in a very really chilly room 1 moment in time and also a cozy location right away after. This leads to moisture to type in your batteries which might be lethal and may trigger a brief on the batteries, creating its chemicals to leak out. after this happens, not merely would your laptop battery turn out to be busted, you would be also exposing your personal computer towards greater danger of toxic chemicals leaking on its motherboard.
Caring for the laptop would also consist of searching after its crucial elements like its batteries, for instance. With correct use and care, your laptop personal computer batteries are certain to final for any lengthy time.

SDHC Problem
I recently bought a sansac240 1GB off ebay refurbished.
While i was waiting for it to ship i bought a 4GB sdhc card hoping that it would work on my player.
I read that if i have a v2 player i can use up to a 4GB sdhc card, so i'm pretty happy.
Then the player comes and and i see that it is a v2, it says so on the back...
I connect my card and the player is getting all weird. I go to check it manually and i have a 01.01.07 firmware which is extremely odd because the player says it is a v2.
So what's wrong here? what do i have to do to be able to play my card?
|[Remove Advertisement]
Bad News: Your firmware version means you have a v1 which will not read a card over 2 gigs. Sansas refurb process is notorious for slapping the case for a v2 on a v1 and vice versa. Unless the seller checked the firmware they probably thought they were delivering a v2 by looking at the case. The only way to be sure is to check the firmware version.
Good News: Your v1 can be Rockboxed. Rockbox will open the full potential of your player, including using high capacity cards. The features that Rockbox adds is a really loooong list. You can even watch tiny little videos. Go to the site, READ THE MANUAL, install according to instructions and you wind up with a fully featured media player. They are working out the last bugs in a working USB stack. That lets you use your c240 as a SDHC card reader as a added bonus.
Caution: Rockbox is a firmware replacement and needs to be installed according to the specific instructions in the manual. It is possible to create a lot of work to bring your player back to a working state if you are careless. However there is an recommended automated installer (rbutil) that does all the heavy lifting and usually only takes a few minutes to set up the player properly.
If I were in your situation I would definitely give Rockbox serious consideration. If you don't like it rbutil will cleanly uninstall the bootloader after which you delete the .rockbox folder and return your player the way it is now.
Problem Solved!
Thanks man

I never cared before (The Godfather is one of my faves) but now that my choices are limited by a four-year-old sensibility, it's important. We get at least one Pixar or Dreamworks film a month but a festival that seeks out and celebrates wholesome moviemaking would draw attention to the notion that you don't have to have sex and violence on screen to be a decent film.
Enter the first ever Tumbleweeds Film Festival for Children. Organizers have picked out a handful of animated, documentary and live-action films, tossed in filmmaking workshops for the older groms, and set out to fill the void.
The festival opens April 1 with the Utah premiere of ELEANOR'S SECRET. The French animated film about a little boy who discovers a magical world through reading.
The live-action CARLITOS AND THE CHANCE OF A LIFETIME comes from Spain. It's about an orphan boy who dreams of becoming a soccer star. Both films will be presented in their original language with subtitles read aloud by a reader.
STELLA AND THE STAR OF THE ORIENT is dubbed in English and has been an audience favorite at film festivals around the world.
The fest runs through April 3 with screenings at the Tower Theater, Broadway Centre Cinemas and Sorenson Unity Center. The screenings are $5 and the workshops at Spy Hop Productions like animating with Lego's and film production for kids 7 and up are $20. For more info, to order tickets, and to learn about the film selections go to kidsfilm.org or call 801-746-7000.

Low-Carb Diets Make You Dopey
Despite the fads, "carbs" are not the enemy of health. Unrefined carbohydrates, like those in beans and fruit, are essential. According to Dr. Fuhrman, our brains are designed to run on carbohydrates. That'll explain why new research in Appetite reveals eliminating carbohydrates, which are broken down into brain-fueling glucose, makes people more forgetful. Low-carb dieters actually preformed worse on memory-based tasks than participants on a reduced-calorie balanced diet; WebMD reports.
