According to an article in the Washington Post the contentious Attorney General of the United States, Eric Holder, is challenging the voter ID law in the state of Texas. The case is to be heard in the US District Court in Washington, DC.
Governor Rick Perry signed the law in 2011 but implementation was blocked by the Department of Justice claiming that it would disenfranchise many Hispanic voters.The DOJ blocked Texas' law under Section 5 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act.
Approximately two dozen states have some form of voter ID law on the books, including our own state of Tennessee. Supporters of the law say that is necessary to contain voter fraud while those that oppose the law claim that it is simply a form of voter suppression and it particularly affects black and Hispanic voters. The law(s) require that a person present a state or federal photo ID.
The claim is that older voters that no longer drive, students, the unemployed, and minorities are being prevented from voting by those whom would not want them to vote by requiring a photo ID which places an undue burden on them because of the difficulty of obtaining such documents.
This is a specious argument at best. According to the Tennessee State Department of Homeland Security which oversees the ID requirments, "If you are a registered voter and do not have a government-issued photo ID, the Department of Safety and Homeland Security will provide you with a photo ID at no charge. Citizens may obtain these IDs at 48 of the Driver Service Centers across the state." Other states have similar accommodations for the elderly, non drivers, and students.
Another problem with the claim that requiring a photo ID is oppressive is the fact that if one wants to cash a check just about anywhere in the USA, and probably the world, you must produce a valid photo ID. Are we saying that millions of elderly people in the US have millions of dollars just lying around because they could not cash their Social Security checks? Students have not cashed their financial aid checks? Welfare recipients and their children are starving for lack of photo ID?
Whatever happened to Motor Voter registration? We seemed to have no problem getting people to the DMV and registered to vote. Why not have them pick up their ID's while they are there? And do we not see busloads of people coming from senior centers, homeless shelters, and drug rehab facilities pulling up to the polling place in order for those citizens to cast their ballots courtesy of the local political party campaign machines? Why not arrange for buses to take them to the nearest place to obtain a photo ID?
Those that claim requiring a photo ID in order to vote is suppressing anyone are simply attempting to raise an issue which lacks any evidential support. With all the claims that had been raised in the last election of voter suppression or intimidation, apparently none were true based upon the lack of prosecutions.
On the other hand one could cite several recent elections right here in the Memphis area in which some dead people rose up and cast their ballots for a candidate. When Ophelia Ford ran for the state senate some campaign workers used the names of dead people to cast multiple votes on her behalf.
If the voter ID law is upheld one can only wonder if the dead community will feel that they have been disenfranchised.

A recent PBS report on Detroit's sewer system illustrates the situation. In a related blog, PBS correspondent Miles O'Brien wrote:
Our big cities sit on top of a spider web of water mains and sewer lines that are often 100 years old. They were designed and built well by our forefathers but have been neglected by our generation for lack of funding.
The American Society of Civil Engineers graded the overall health of the water and sewer infrastructure in the U.S., and it barely passed -- earning a D-minus.
The American Society of Civil Engineers graded the overall health of the water and sewer infrastructure in the U.S., and it barely passed -- earning a D-minus.
The report O'Brien refers to is over three years old. In the interim, projects have continued nationwide to fix outdated city sewer systems. But they face an uphill struggle against government neglect and public indifference.
In the PBS show, Gregory E. DiLoreto, president of the American Society of Civil Engineers, stated that more than $84 billion in additional federal funding over the next eight years will be required to get US water and sewer systems up to par, replacing outdated combined sewer systems that combine rainwater and other kinds of wastewater with sewage in one pipe. The preferred alternative is a system that isolates sewage from other runoff.
There are a range of technologies available to help US cities cope with these and other sewer problems. There are biological solutions, injectable "trenchless" pipe linings that extend the life of old pipes, and control systems that help track the health of municipal sewer systems.
Most cities are finding that wastewater treatment rehab is best undertaken as part of a water management overhaul. The city of San Antonio, Texas, for instance, earned star billing on the PBS show for its program of water conservation. By recycling water and offering citizens incentives to save water, the city has been able to keep water use close to what it was 25 years ago, despite having 67 percent more customers.
The city's water utility has actually been able to close one treatment plant. "The water that you don't use, you don't have to treat," Robert Puente, CEO of the San Antonio Water Service, told PBS.
San Antonio is also recycling its water, a precursor to the "toilet to tap" methods under consideration by some US municipalities.
The struggle for more sustainable wastewater treatment continues, despite these small triumphs. Clearly, it's time to throw more funding and effort at the problem. In a blog in November 2012, one expert, Jeff Eger, executive director of the Water Environment Federation, wrote:
Our essential water infrastructure is failing and is woefully inadequate to address the 'new normal' weather patterns... Broken and leaking pipes cause the loss of nearly two trillion gallons of drinking water per year at an annual cost of $2.6 billion. Restoring existing drinking water systems and expanding them to serve a growing population will cost at least $1 trillion over the next 25 years. At current funding levels, there will be a funding gap of at least $224 billion nationwide over the next 20 years.
To those who say jobs are more important than water infrastructure, Eger quotes the National Association of Utility Contractors: "For every $1 billion invested in water infrastructure, 26,000 jobs are created."
To that, I say let's raise a glass of clean, potable water.

TC TO RICHARD MONCKTON MILNES; 1 March 1854; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18540301-TC-RMM-01; CL 29: 34-35
Chelsea, 1 March, 1854—
Dear Milnes,
I wish you would tell me something definite about that grand Proposal of manning the Civil Service by persons chosen according to their merit?1 Or if you know little or nothing about it, will you (for my sake and your own) make some precise inquiries in the proper quarter; and pause again in your riding, some day soon, to tell me how it stands with that matter. I really am much interested about it; and can find nobody to give me information that will amount to anything. Certainly there never was in my time such a "Reform" set on foot as this same might be; a thing worth all other "reforms" put together; and indeed practically inclusive of all (for there is no other wanted, or even conceivable, according to my notions); and I confess I would not exchange the right attempt at this, for all the ballot boxes, or want of ballot boxes, in the world; which latter entities (with their franchises, beer-barrels, hustings oratory &c &c) have, after long sinking, quite reached zero many years ago with me.
I can foresee endless difficulties in the execution of such an attempt: but the attempt is great, salutary, and I believe indispensable: your Chancellor of the Exchequer, or whoever it is that has charge of, must in no wise abandon it for difficulties; let him persist in Heaven's name and England's; gradually all good citizens, all wise men, will rally to him, and he will have begun a new epoch in English History, and done a service required by God and man!2
In short, come to me again soon, and give your wisest account of all that, not to speak of other things. I am here daily till 3½ p.m.
Yours ever /
T. Carlyle

Weezie Mott with a life story that rolls out like a first rate script ready for casting and filming is a marvel in our midst. At the first sight of her you see the bright blue eyes, red hair and an obvious blast of intelligence and energy that reaches across any room. Turns out it reaches across decades as well. She has traveled a path from love to love, from strength to strength and success to success. There is, even today a smile in her voice as she talks about the family she loves. Enthusiasm for life precedes every word she speaks, and gratitude follows.
Weezie "popped out", as she puts it, when her mother was fifty. Her first visual memory, because they gave her a cup and saucer, is a joyful one of having tea at a department store with her mother, her sister older by twenty-two years, and her sister's daughter. But she never got to know her mother who died when Weezie was five. Her response to that memory is one of loving thanks for her wonderful siblings she still speaks of with the most unconditional love and admiration. As one of her beloved brothers was the actor Tom Tully, you can see that captivating, insightful story-telling may be a genetic blessing shared by the two of them.
Weezie was only seven when her father sent her in a boarding school where she stayed until the 8th grade. She laughingly admits to hating it. The food was so horrible that she and a friend spit it into their hands to trash later, visits home were too rare, and the uniforms unattractive and dull. They told her they were training her to be a nun, which brought a resounding "No thank you!" from Weezie. She was thrilled to be home again when fate took another marvelously life-changing turn, when her oldest brother got permission from her father to take her to Panama with his family and put her in school there. Weezie knew right then at the age of 15 that instead of living in Colorado ever again she would live in the world. And, as no plan of Weezie's has ever been put on a back burner, she has lived in it ever since. She became a nurse. She joined the Navy because she wanted to serve her country, and serve it she did as part of a triage team in San Diego for wounded soldiers brought home from Southeast Asia.
She was a figure skater on her way to a competition in L.A. when, at a tea dance she reluctantly attended, she met the man who would be her husband for seventy-two years and the love of a lifetime. Her description of him, as does her love letter, defines not only an undying love that started with broken commitments to others, honorable conduct, and all of it a lesson in how life goes on its own perfect track if we can get out of our own way. Then it was motherhood, life in a variety of foreign countries where Weezie lived in each as a citizen, and learning languages and customs all of which gave her son the basis to become an international banker.
Weezie, with the delivery of a true comic, describes how "stupid our government is every now and then" when, on her marriage, they released her from the Navy. Her reply, long before mandatory equal rights, was, "Why don't you kick my husband out? He's married, too." But this fell on deaf ears, and released she was so went on to the next wonderful job that paid her double what the Navy did. After that she taught nursing at Kaiser in Oakland. Next step, coming right up.
With her husband's blessing and encouragement, on to France she went to become a Cordon Bleu Chef de Cuisine. After working in a couple of French kitchens and restaurants she came home to open her own cooking school, complete with one class a year for children, complete with major field trips to place we all know. For twenty years there were the kind of European culinary tours no travel agency could even offer - Motoring With the Motts. Oh, and somewhere in all that she earned her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Education and Chemistry. Her cooking school is going strong. The woman was and still is unstoppable.
Weezie's love letter, written in 1945 to her niece, a girl-to-girl confession of love and wedding plans, is a work of art, a work of historical significance and a tribute to a love that lasted a lifetime. She is still busy as ever at ninety-two and says with a burst of laughter, "I'll always be a redhead!" Good thing, too, because that is as identifiable a part of her as everything else.
To listen to Weezie talk with candor, insight and wit about her past, present and future is to know how limitless life can be. To hear her talk about her family is a lesson on love's triumphant power. Even though she knows she is lucky to be healthy, she says that her secret is "don't just sit on your ass, get up and do something." She is also lucky that she was born with an indomitable temperament, a talent for taking the gift of being clear and plain spoken to the level of high art, and an endless ability to laugh.
If it takes you more than one listening, as it well may, to absorb all that is Weezie, worry not, the re-runs are as good as the original screening.
From me to you with love in the air and gratitude to Weezie Mott for the endless lessons and unqualified fun,

The Mustang School District is considering adding an elective course that would teach about the Bible.
"A state law that passed several years ago made a provision for public school districts to offer an elective course through social studies or through the English department called 'The Bible in the Curriculum,'" said Mustang Public Schools Superintendent Sean McDaniel. "We thought it was very intriguing and wanted to see what this kind of curriculum might offer."
McDaniel invited Steve Green, President and CEO of Hobby Lobby, to come and talk to the board at their meeting on Monday. He said Green has taken on an initiative to create a curriculum from a historical perspective.
Green and his family own over 40,000 Bibles and he now oversees The Green Collection, which has grown to be the world's largest private collection of rare biblical texts and artifacts. He is also working on building a national, nonsectarian Bible museum in Washington D.C. to house the collection.
"We have started a Bible collection with the goal to open a the Bible museum in the year 2017," he said.
Green is also in the development stages of creating a new, nonsectarian Bible curriculum and said it would cover three parts of the book: the history, the impact and its story.
"We have a list of universities that we are working with today all over the world," he said. "We want to find the leading scholars to help us and we will be pulling from this group to help write this curriculum and it will tie to the three parts we want to teach. With the history, we want to show the archeological evidences of the Bible and then we want to show the impact of the Bible. The Bible has had an impact on just about every area of life, whether you like it or not, it has. It has impacted government, education, art, science, literature, you name it. Thirdly, is the story, meaning what does the book say."
Green also argued that the Bible has had a big impact on literacy.
"If someone calls someone a 'Good Samaritan' and you are not familiar with the Bible, you have lost the context of what they are saying," Green said. "If you know the Good Samaritan story, whether you like it or not, or believe it is true or fictional, it is a story and something a lot of our conversation in our culture comes from."
Green said the Bible is undeniably one of the most important objects in world history. As an example, he mentioned a Life Magazine that listed the '100 most important events in the past 1,000 years.'
"Number one was Gutenberg printing the Bible," he said. "The History Channel listed 101 objects that changed the world. Guess what number one was. The Bible. Imagine a school that would not teach about Columbus, which was number two on the list. Or imagine a school that would not teach about Luther and the Reformation in history class or the Industrial Revolution. Can you imagine these things not being taught, but number one is not."
Green said it is legal in most states to teach the Bible as an elective course, meaning it would not be a required.
School board member Jeff Landrith asked Green if the curriculum would teach subjects regarding different denominations within the Bible.
"This is not about a denomination, or a religion, it's about a book," Green said. "We will not try to go down denominational, religious type roads. Now, it would go through the Jewish and Catholic tradition so it would include someone of those, but it is not trying to push any of them. It is just history that goes through them. That is going to be a challenging part of this."
McDaniel said the course, along with any new courses, would go through a curriculum committee before going before the school board for approval.
"We would have all the documents, text books, everything for the board to review before taking action," McDaniel said. "

The way the process works is you use your Wormhole Generator: Northrend and if you get lucky you get the option of going to the Underground. Once you get the option to you'll get to trade with a vendor named Kaye Toogie, which has multiple rare patterns that are worth anywhere from 250-5,000g.
Keep in mind that you do need some luck on your side, in the past 6 months I've only ever gotten the option of going to "underground" three times. I've always managed to sell the patterns anywhere from 3-5,500g, and all for about a single mouse click once every four hours.

Epson WorkForce WF-2540 All-in-One Printer Review and Ratings
Our Verdict: This inexpensive AIO inkjet has excellent print quality and a nice, compact design, but it operates slowly, and the per-page cost is high. It works well as a supplementary printer for occasional use, or for households that print only sporadically. Read More…
- What We Liked…
- Excellent print quality
- Very compact for an AIO
- Supports printing from smartphones and tablets
- Built-in ADF
- What We Didn't…
- Costly ink
- Slower-than-average print, copy, scan speeds
Epson WorkForce WF-2540 All-in-One Printer Review
By January 19, 2013, reviewed
Table of Contents
Introduction & Design
Most of us would prefer not to pay a lot for a printer—and that's especially true if the printer will get limited use. But with feature-rich all-in-one (AIO) inkjet printers selling for less than $150 nowadays, you could place one or more in situations you might not have considered before.
Need the color printing of an AIO inkjet to complement your mono-only laser printer? Want a wireless model to supplement a non-wireless model? You can fill those gaps without spending much. The challenge, though, is deciding what to give up in the model or models you opt for. You can't expect to get the same capabilities and print/scan quality in your under-$150 printer that you might in a $250 or $350 printer.
The Epson WorkForce WF-2540 has some good points and two significant sore points. On the plus side, it has excellent print quality and the key features you would expect in a workhorse AIO printer. It has a built-in 30-page automatic document feeder (ADF), supports Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections, and is compatible with many smartphones and tablets. It also has a nice, compact design.
So what's not to like? The WF-2540 is unusually slow when printing, and it has a higher-than-average per-page print cost. That said, considering that the list price is $129.99 and the street price a few notches below that, we're willing to overlook those demerits for situations where print volumes are low and speed doesn't matter much.
If you're used to AIO inkjet printers, you may wonder if that's all there is when you first see the WorkForce WF-2540. It's one of the smallest multifunction printers we've reviewed to date. According to Epson, it has the smallest footprint of any color inkjet all-in-one printer in "its class." (That "class" is conveniently defined as AIO models with list prices of $129 or less.)
However you define it, it doesn't take up much space. At 11.5 inches high, 15.4 inches wide, and 21.3 inches deep when printing, the WorkForce WF-2540 is compact enough to fit on many desks. When it's not in use, you can fold back the sheet feeder and paper-output tray, and the unit becomes just 8.7 inches high and 14.8 inches deep. You may not have to rearrange your desk to find room for it.
While the cabinet has a glossy black finish, the overall design emphasizes practical considerations rather than style for its own sake. For example, the plastic guard near the sheet feeder has a diagram that shows you how to extend the sheet feeder and properly insert the paper. You could remove that diagram with your fingernail, but it may be worth leaving there, especially if the printer will be used by more than one person.
Weighing just 13 pounds, the WorkForce WF-2540 is easy to move from one location to another. The downside to the lightweight construction is the possibility that Epson used a lower grade of plastic for the outer shell, as well as fewer metal parts for the internal mechanisms. That's just speculation, though, as we didn't see any evidence of shortfalls due to the materials used. And to be fair to Epson, at this price, you seldom see better grades of plastic or a high percentage of internal metal parts in competing printers, either. The sheet feeder and paper-output tray did feel sturdy, though they might not survive a strong, glancing blow—so be careful where you place the unit. You'll want to keep any parts that are sticking out away from passing office-worker traffic (or kids speeding by).

According to Friday's WBAL 11 News, a second Baltimore, Md., police officer has been charged in conjunction with the death of a woman's dog.
On Thursday, 52-year-old Thomas Schmidt was arrested, charged and then released after posting bond, for his part in the killing of Sarah Gossard's seven-year-old Chinese shar-pei, "Nala." Schmidt, a 24-year veteran of the force, is accused of holding the dog down while Officer Jeffrey Bolger slit her throat.
Schmidt was suspended from his police duties shortly after the mid-June killing of the dog.
Nala had been running loose just prior to being captured and killed - the dog had escaped from her yard and a woman who tried to catch her to read the identification tags on her collar, was bitten on the hand. According to witnesses, the dog had been captured and brought under control before her throat was cut by Officer Bolger.
At a press conference held earlier this month, Police Deputy Commissioner Dean Palmere called Officer Jeffrey Bolger's actions "outrageous and unacceptable."
Shortly after the dog was killed, Bolger was suspended and charged with felony animal cruelty. Now, Officer Schmidt is also facing aggravated animal cruelty, animal cruelty and malfeasance in office charges,
Some acquaintances of Schmidt are shocked by the allegations - Schmidt's neighbor, Doug Pratt told WBAL News:
They have a dog and they're real nice people, so I'm shocked, I'm surprised,"
"He isn't the type of guy that would go out and kill a dog."

College Hockey:Battle Of The Brothers
WORCESTER, Mass. — One is older, more experienced; the other could be called the young pup. One plays the role of leader for his team; the other is brand-new to college hockey.
But the brothers Comrie — Paul, the senior captain of the University of Denver, and Mike, the rookie sensation for the University of Michigan, have plenty in common. For starters, they both posses the title of leading scorer for their respective teams.
Friday night in Worcester, Mass., in the first round of the NCAA East Regional, the two met on opposite sides for the first time in their college careers.
But instead of the knowledge and experience of the older Comrie breaking through, Friday it was Mike Comrie's night to shine. Mike posted the only point between the two brothers, but a very important one. With the Wolverines leading 4-3 with less than seven minutes to play, Mike Comrie picked up a perfect pass at the red line and soared in on Denver goaltender Steven Wagner, scoring the important insurance goal.
The goal was the last in a five-goal outburst that capped a come-from-behind Michigan victory, giving the Wolverines continued life to their season.
"Mike and I come from a very competitive family," said Paul Comrie. "We both want to win and once the puck was dropped tonight we both forgot we were brothers and it didn't mean anything."
Over his four years with the Pioneers, Paul Comrie he has consistently improved his performances, notching 40 or more points in three season. He finishes his career ranked 12th on the DU all-time scoring list with 161 career points.
This season Paul was an All-American candidate and was selected to the all-WCHA first team, the first such award to a Denver player since Dave Shields in 1990: Comrie notched 49 points (18 goals, 31 assists) in 39 games this season. He was a ninth-round selection of the Tampa Bay Lightning, who in 1997 traded his rights to the Edmonton Oilers, where he is compared to center Doug Weight.
Over his career, Paul has been a leader in postseason play, having scored 11 points in 15 playoff games, including three in his two NCAA tournament games in 1997.
For the younger of the brothers, Mike, the night's comeback was bittersweet.
"It's a little disappointing to see (Paul) lose, but its hockey and one of us had to lose tonight," Mike said after the victory. "It's unfortunate, but we're still going to be brothers."
The younger Comrie has dazzled the crowds in his first season in Michigan. He arrived in Ann Arbor to join the defending national champions, and though young in age, has performed like a veteran.
In his first year, Mike is leading the team in scoring with 43 points (18 goals, 25 assists). His plus-18 rating is the second-best on the club behind defenseman Jeff Jillson, and his play earned him CCHA Rookie of the Year honors as well as placement on the Bauer/CCHA all-rookie team.
Mike credits a lot of his early success, as well as the win, to mentor and coach Red Berenson.
"Coach Berenson is a great coach. Tonight's win should [prove] it," Mike said, "When he called that timeout, he told us to stick to our game plan and focus on what we're supposed to do."
The timeout he refers to was called by Berenson after Denver jumped out to a 3-0 lead midway through the game. After that, Michigan outshot Denver 20-1 en route to the 5-3 win.
Mike echoed his brother's comments.
"Like brothers [are], we're both competitive. I thought he played well tonight and I thought their team played well. It's not a big deal playing him. It's two teams playing hockey."
So Friday night represented a bit of a beginning, and an end. For Denver's Paul, it marked the end of a fantastic college career. And for Michigan's Mike, it is the beginning of a run towards defending the team's national title.

Police Intimidation Watch: NYPD Returns Cameras to Times Freelancer
The New York City police department has returned camera gear belonging to a freelance photographer who was arrested August 4 after refusing to stop photographing police activity on a public street.
Photographer Robert Stolarik got his camera equipment back on August 10, the National Press Photographers Association reported on its Web site. Stolarik told NPPA, "The next things for me will be getting the charges dropped and having my credentials returned to me."
Stolarik was charged with obstruction and resisting arrest after police told him to stop taking pictures at the scene of a street altercation. Solarik was on assignment at time for The New York Times. He identified himself to police as a journalist, and continued taking pictures.
He was then arrested and held overnight. NPPA and The New York Times protested Stolarik's arrest as an act of intimidation–and a violation of his civil rights.
According to NPPA, New York Times attorney George Freeman is calling on the NYPD to "objectively investigate" Stolarik's arrest. "We are fully confident that if they look at the facts, they will find that the officers who blocked, intimidated and assaulted Mr. Stolarik acted inappropriately and violated NYPD guidelines," Freeman told NPPA.

The senior sharpshooter scores 20 points but takes just 4 shots after halftime before fouling out. That, turnovers and porous defense add up to a lost opportunity for better seeding in next week's conference tournament. Washington (16-14, 8-9 Pac-12) hosts USC in the regular-season finale Saturday.
By Gregg Bell
UW Director of Writing
SEATTLE – Leave it to beyond-his-years freshman Nigel Williams-Goss to cut to the essence of what's left for the Huskies now.
"Obviously we are playing for seeding. … Our mindset is still the same," Williams-Goss said late Thursday night, referring to next week's win-it-all-or-go-home Pac-12 tournament.
"This game didn't make or break us."
It didn't. But it did make Washington's road back to the NCAA tournament more arduous than it could have been.
C.J. Wilcox was hot in his next-to-last home game of his Huskies' career, swishing rainbows from all over. UW had the lead over the Pac-12's second-place team. Alaska Airlines Arena was rockin'.
Then Wilcox didn't take a shot for the first 5 minutes of the second half. He picked up his third foul with 14 minutes left and sat for the next 5. And the Huskies' night instantly U-turned -- because of turnovers and their defense not getting back quickly enough against UCLA's fast-break probes and scores.
Wilcox's 20 points before he fouled out came with only four attempts in the second half, while UCLA rallied for four points down to a 91-82 victory Thursday.
The loss cost Washington a chance at finishing as high as potentially fourth in the conference.
"It came down to defense," said Wilcox, who was 7 for 13 but only 2 for 4 when the game was decided in the second half.
"We just didn't get stops," Williams-Goss said.
Defense and the turnovers were how Washington (16-14, 8-9 Pac-12) lost for the first time since Nov. 24, 2008, versus Kansas in Kansas City, Mo., while shooting 55 percent or better.
"We had the opportunity tonight. We could have been as a high as a four seed (with a potential first-round bye in the Pac-12 tournament)," Huskies coach Lorenzo Romar said. "We let that slip through our fingers."
Williams-Goss continued his sterling freshman season with 17 points and eight assists in 36 minutes. But he also had five, uncharacteristic turnovers. Andrew Andrews added 17 points – but had three turnovers. Perris Blackwell had 13 points and 10 rebounds – and two turnovers – off the bench.
It was that kind of night for the Huskies. When they weren't making shots they were dribbling the ball off their own legs. And jumping into the air with nowhere to pass. Or inbounding the ball directly to Bruins – once after UW had twice called timeout to set up a play.
UW had nine of its 13 turnovers in the second half, "out of nowhere" against UCLA's zone that didn't change, as Romar put it. The turnovers fueled easy transition scores for the Bruins, who were running and pushing the pace even before the gift chances as the Huskies struggled to get back in time or far enough on defense.
"A lot of our turnovers just led to fast-break points and got them going," Wilcox said.
UCLA's Jordan Adams seized most on all the freebies. Five of his six baskets in the second-half came on layups, and all but one of those scores came off UW turnovers. He finished with a career-high 31 points.
The Bruins held a 23-10 edge in points off turnovers, despite rarely playing anything but a 2-3 zone defense.
So Washington will end its the regular season against last-place USC at Alaska Airlines Arena Saturday afternoon unable to finish any higher than sixth and potentially as low as ninth in the league. An eighth or ninth seed means a potential second-round game against conference regular-season champion Arizona.
The Huskies will leave Tuesday morning for Las Vegas and a first-round game in the Pac-12 tournament on Wednesday. If you agree with Williams-Goss and most Huskies' mindset that they had to win the tournament anyway, even before this loss, to make the NCAA tournament for the first time in three years then the task hasn't changed.
As Romar ruefully said, "At this point, yeah, we don't have any choice but to think that way."
The Huskies trailed UCLA (23-7, 12-5) by seven within the first 3 minutes, then Andrews and Wilcox led a 9-0 run. The rest of the half was a wild shootout, with the lead changing 17 times. The Huskies' 20-for-34, 58.8-percent shooting was their highest for a first half this season, and they lead 45-41 at the break.
Wilcox had 13 in the opening period, 5 for 8 from the field and 3 for 6 from deep. He ended up fouling out for the first time in 55 games, since Dec. 13, 2012, at Seattle U.
UCLA scored the first six points of the second half, off three Washington turnovers in its first five possessions after halftime. That plus the Huskies not getting back on defense -- or switching when they were supposed to, or not helping when teammates got beaten on drives -- kept UW's 61-percent shooting through the game's first 25 minutes from producing a sizeable lead for the home team.
"There was a point in the second half when we began not trusting on defense," Romar said. "We were thinking 'My man's a good player. If I leave him he's going to score. You get two, three guys thinking that way it's going to hurt you.
"With the turnovers, that's a recipe for disaster."
But, as Williams-Goss and Wilcox say, not for the end of all hope.
"We just have to get ready for USC," Wilcox said, "and try to get some momentum for the Pac-12 tournament."
That they now must win.

"Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2" was just released on February 25. Some people may be happy to see that the Toy Maker, from "Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate" is back and with a puzzle that tells his origin story. When you reach the Toy Maker's theater, you will be presented with a puzzle in the form of a stage play. A narrator puppet will come to life an begin the tale. By choosing the correct choices you gain extra skill points, so it's important to get them right on the first try.
"Ladies and gentleman! Boys and girls. If the dream of reason produces monsters the theater dispels them with its magic. Now be afraid before the conjurer who conquered the creatures of the night with his genius and his heart. Give a big round of applause for the mighty Toy Maker!
The famous and beloved Toy Maker, we will learn has a sad fate over his head. For in spite of his goodness a path of tragedy and death he will tread. Day and night in his workshop he labors he hammers, he sweats and he fasts. And with every blow he strikes sighs fly from his soul to the figures he crafts."
You will now be prompted to choose puppet characters and settings for the story that the narrator puppet is telling. The puppets available to choose are the Toy Maker, Walter Bernhard, Demon and Kid. The settings available are the Castle, Theater and Workshop.
"The famous and beloved Toy Maker… Day and night in his workshop."
Choose the Toy Maker puppet and the Workshop scene.
"His fame spreads in whispers across the land far and wide. Until his name is known and respected by every man and child. One fateful day a Nobleman knocks at his workshop door. He's jolted from his work with a start. The promises and smiles of Walter Bernhard conceal a dark, perfidious heart."
Add Walter Bernhard's puppet to the scene.
"Walter offers a roof, friendship, protection, a hearth. The Bernhards' castle will be a dazzling mansion for the old Toy Maker and worthy of his craft.
A curse on you, Walter Bernhard, for deceiving such a good soul! May you be damned to spend all eternity in Hell's darkest hole!"
Choose the Castle setting.
"Our hero works away happily in the castle of his dreams. But soon we will see his perfidious master's purpose is not what it seems.
Oh my God! This is no castle, but a prison!
Poor Toy Maker, now you understand how close is your perdition!
Hide yourselves boys and girls. Walter Bernhard is preparing an invocation here! A terrible creature of Hell is about to appear!"
Add the Demon to the scene.
"Oh no! The demon is conjuring a charm! Take cover now if you are easily alarmed!
Oh no! The Toy Maker's talent now comes to his perfidious benefactor's aid. Far behind him now are the toys and the theater he had made. Oh, if only to undo his vile spell there were some chance and so release the good Toy Maker from the grip of his vile trance."
Change in the Theater setting and add the Kid puppet.
"His mind may be in a fog but the Toy Maker's good heart shines through, you can tell. And a little love is all it takes to destroy the terrible spell. But now you must think fast, Toy Maker, your situation is dire. Walter Bernhard is returning. I don't know how you can escape from this mire!
Oh what a terrible and fortune idea, boys and girls! Come on, little one, hold onto that heart so pure and true. In a distant and hopeful future you may return it to the one who gave it to you.
Ladies and gentleman, this is the heart of a man whose goodness went deep. Listen now and decide if you will wake him from his long sleep."
This will lead into a boss fight with the Toy Maker and his puppets.

Neighborhood residents across the country are realizing that they hold the key to neighborhood revitalization and sustaining healthy neighborhoods. Increasing and mobilizing residents is often a challenge for many neighborhoods. But it is being done across the country on a daily basis and will take commitment, determination, passion and creative approaches. One of the greatest assets of any neighborhood is the people with the gifts and talents to make a difference in improving the quality of life for all.
According to John McKnight at Northwestern University and author of "Asset-Based Community Development", the key is to help residents identify those assets and put them to work on the issues that they think are most important. Don't just look at a community and decide what's wrong - look at a community and build on what's right.
In his research, John McKnight points out that "across the United States, communities are in trouble. In our cities, economies sputter, social ties weaken, and political power fades. But everywhere, creative local leaders are fighting back, rebuilding neighborhoods and communities. And they are succeeding by starting with what they already have. In the face of diminished prospects for outside help, they are turning first of all to their neighbors and to the local citizens associations and institutions that lie at the heart of their community,"
A capacity-building approach is a powerful revitalization tool that:
- creates an environment that will nurture and strengthen the gifts and talents of residents and future neighborhood leaders;
- provides the resources including education, funding, and capacity-building tools;
- involves residents directly who can influence and engage in solutions that will make a lasting difference;
- gives residents the opportunity to learn new skills, meet people, and solve problems as a team;
- addresses neighborhood challenges and issues in a cost-effective manner.
Get involved and make a lasting difference!

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — The new era at Penn State is off to a disappointing start.
The Nittany Lions let an 11-point halftime lead slip away, and Ohio quarterback Tyler Tettleton accounted for three second-half touchdowns to hand Bill O'Brien a 24-14 loss in his debut as Penn State head coach.
For many fans, just having football again at Beaver Stadium was enough of a victory after a trying offseason that included the death of former beloved coach Joe Paterno and crippling NCAA sanctions placed on the football program for the Jerry Sandusky child abuse scandal.
"I thought it was a great atmosphere in the stands at Beaver Stadium," O'Brien said before stoically taking responsibility for the loss. "Again, it starts with me and coaching better and making sure we play better next time."
There were some other changes, too: players' names on the backs of the uniforms, and blue ribbons on the back of the helmets to show support for victims of child sexual abuse.
■ No. 6 Georgia 45, Buffalo 23: In Athens, Ga., freshman tailback Todd Gurley ran for three touchdowns, Aaron Murray threw three scoring passes and No. 6 Georgia overcame a sloppy first half to beat Buffalo.
Gurley didn't start but may have emerged as the Bulldogs' future at tailback with his eight carries for 100 yards, including scoring runs of 10 and 55 yards. He added a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in the first quarter.
■ No. 11 West Virginia 69, Marshall 34: In Morgantown, W.Va., Geno Smith threw for 323 yards and four touchdowns to lead No. 11 West Virginia past Marshall.
In the final scheduled game between the state's only Bowl Subdivision teams, it marked West Virginia's highest-scoring season opener in school history.
■ Wisconsin 26, Northern Iowa 21: In Madison, Wis., Montee Ball rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown, and No. 12 Wisconsin needed a big defensive play to survive a fourth-quarter scare from Northern Iowa.
Leading 26-7 in the fourth quarter, Wisconsin allowed Northern Iowa quarterback Sawyer Kollmorgen to throw a pair of long touchdowns to David Johnson, cutting the lead to five. With the Panthers facing fourth-and-1 at the Wisconsin 41-yard line, defensive lineman Ethan Hemer tipped the ball at the line of scrimmage to stop the drive.
■ No. 17 Nebraska 49, Southern Mississippi 20: In Lincoln, Neb., Taylor Martinez threw for a career-high 354 yards and matched his high with five touchdown passes to lead No. 17 Nebraska past Southern Mississippi. The Huskers won their nation-leading 27th straight opener.
■ No. 18 Ohio St. 56, Miami (Ohio) 10: In Columbus, Ohio, Braxton Miller rushed for 161 yards, a record for an Ohio State quarterback, and threw for two scores, including Devin Smith's highlight-reel, one-handed catch, as the 18th-ranked Buckeyes ushered in the Urban Meyer era by beating Miami (Ohio).
■ No. 23 Florida 27, Bowling Green 14: In Gainesville, Fla., Mike Gillislee had a career-high 148 yards rushing and two touchdowns, helping No. 23 Florida beat Bowling Green.
The performance was far from perfect for the Gators, who struggled part of the game on offense and failed to generate much pressure on defense.
■ Notre Dame 50, Navy 10: In Dublin, Notre Dame scored touchdowns on its first three possessions and defensive end Stephon Tuitt returned a fumble 77 yards for another TD as the Fighting Irish routed Navy in Ireland.
A crowd of 49,000 filled Dublin's Aviva Stadium for the first U.S. college game in Ireland since 1996.

Guest Post by: Tom Eshchar
Tom and Alizarin are a couple of young creative creatures that are now enjoying their honeymoon in a world wide road trip. Fortunately for us, they share beautiful pictures and fascinating stories about their adventures around the world in a great blog called Zroob.com.
Will you do things differently if you thought nobody was judging you? Would that thing be better that way?
Recently we added our photos to another photographer's web site. We added a photo in which we are standing naked in front of the "Rabbanut" which is the judicial council for religious matters for Jewish people in the state of Israel. It was suppose to be our wedding photo, and we were trying to say that although according to the law we have to sign in there, we kindly refuse. We wanted to tell the world that we don't agree with the convention of living together as "balls and chains" but rather as a joined adventure. We decided to share our belief of love as an added flavor and not having to ask anyone to validate this for us, especially if that person knows nothing of what we want out of this life and love.
In our art (Tom's photos, Alizarin photos, writing and design) we sometimes say things that matters to us. Every now and then we create in a way that we produce something that is not just pretty. There is a risk in that. In this television controlled, fast and many stimuli world, a saying is often faced with puzzled, sometimes empty looks. Better yet are the post modern ideas in which anything is possible and the truth is as elusive as politicians. Still, we enjoy on occasion the thrill of juggling the truth as we see it.
Recently, we had an interesting nude project. I'm not writing "photography project" because it felt more than that. We asked regular people, not models, to participate. We wanted to create art that also changes the life of its models. As an experience, it was very exciting for all sides. We had 35 people stripping within three months. All amateurs. 4 of them couples. They all said after that besides the beautiful outcome, they feel they've been through an interesting experience that made them think and feel different things about their body and of nudity.
Why nude? I feel as if sex, and the human body is one of the relics of thought of the old dark ages. Along with human rights, and freedom, this was repressed and restrained by the religious institutes. Now is the time of self reliance, self conscious and human morality. Art is just the way to promote this. To show the world how beautiful it can look.

2009 Research Summary
Simulation of Deformable Tissue for Surgical Needle Insertion
View Current Project Information
Nuttapong Chentanez, Ron Alterovitz, Jijie Xu, Vincent Duindam, Ken Goldberg, James O'Brien and Jonathan Shewchuk
Steerable needles composed of a highly flexible material and a bevel tip offer greater mobility compared to rigid needles for minimally-invasive medical procedures. Because the needle has a bevel tip, it will trace out a curve path inside the tissue. By rotating the base, the needle could be steered to avoid vital organs. Computer simulation of the interaction between the needle and the human tissue can be useful in helping the surgeon plan the procedures.
In this project, we consider the problem of 3D simulation of needle insertion procedures, where we use the Finite Element Method (FEM) to model the needle flexibility and the tissue deformation. Our simulation method uses a tetrahedral mesh to represent the tissue and a chain of nodes to represent the needle. We propose an efficient algorithm to maintain a collocation property where the chain contains only connected nodes and edges in the tetrahedral mesh. The tissue and the needle are simulated and coupled together in real time using our novel method. In addition to developing the simulation system, we also plan to explore the planning aspect of the steerable needle insertion to robustly reach the target region while avoiding vital organs.

BALTIMORE, Md. – The University of Maine baseball team scored a school-record 32 runs to cap a sweep of a doubleheader 32-14 after defeating UMBC 9-3 in game one. The Black Bears now stand at 14-14 overall and 2-0 in America East play while UMBC falls to 7-19 and 0-2 in league play.
In the second game, the Black Bears jumped out to a quick 7-0 lead in the first as Ian Leisenheimer (Middle Village, N.Y.) hit a sacrifice fly to right field to score Michael Fransoso (Portsmouth, N.H.). The Black Bears took a 3-0 lead when Alex Calbick (Burnaby, British Columbia) knocked in Tyler Patzalek (Burlington, Ontario) and Scott Heath (Westbrook, Maine) on a double down the right field line.
Calbick would then score on a UMBC error on a ball hit by Fran Whitten (Westborough, Mass.). Justin Leisenheimer (Middle Village, N.Y.) would single to score Whitten before Fransoso came up again and singled in J. Leisenheimer and Troy Black (Mississauga, Ontario).
UMBC answered with three runs in the bottom half, but the Black Bears scored two in the second, one in the third and fourth, and three in the fifth and held a 14-8 lead before the Black Bears exploded again in the sixth.
J. Leisenheimer got hit by a pitch to start things off, and Black promptly responded with a double to left center and proceeded to third on a UMBC error. Two batters later, I. Leisenheimer doubled to clear the bases and score Colin Gay (Franklin, Mass.), Fransoso and Black.
Two batters later with the bases loaded, Calbick delivered a grand slam that scored Patzalek, Heath and I. Leisenheimer that gave the Black Bears a 22-8 lead. However, UMBC scored six runs in the bottom half to close it to 22-14.
Maine put the game away in the seventh, as Brian Doran (Ayr, Ontario) put down a bunt that he beat out for a hit, and advanced to second on a throwing error that also scored Sam Balzano (Portland, Maine) and Gay. Patzalek then singled to score Doran.
A few batters later, Black put the ball in play and the Retrievers could not handle it as Calbick and Patzalek both scored, giving Maine a 27-14 cushion.
Maine tacked on three runs in the eighth and a pair in the ninth to take the win 32-14.
Patzalek finished the game 3-for-6 with six RBI while Calbick went 2-for-4 also with 6 RBI. I. Leisenheimer went 2-for-4 with five RBI.
Jeff Gibbs (Toronto, Ontario) got the win after going 5.0 innings and scattering 10 hits. His record improves to 2-4 on the year. Steve Trask (Saco, Maine) and Eric White (Brewer, Maine) combined to throw 3.1 inning of scoreless relief.
In the first game, after a scoreless first two innings, the Black Bears took a 2-0 lead with a pair of runs in the top of the third. J. Leisenheimer started the rally with a leadoff single and moved up to second on a sac-bunt by Black. Gay knocked in Maine's first run as he ripped a single into left field, scoring J. Leisenheimer. Maine kept the rally going as I. Leisenheimer was hit by a pitch, moving Gay up to second. Heath followed with a sharp single, plating Gay with Maine's second run of the inning.
The Retrievers answered with three runs in the home half of the third. With one out in the inning, back-to-back-to-back singles by UMBC loaded the bases before Max Himmelstein roped a double down the left field line to clear the bases and give the Retrievers a 3-2 advantage.
The Black Bears distanced themselves, as they would plate runs in each of the next four innings, starting with a pair in the top of the fourth. Calbick started the inning by working a walk before advancing to third on a Fran Whitten (Westborough, Mass.) double into center. J. Leisenheimer grounded out to third which allowed Calbick to scamper in from third, tying things up at three. With Whitten on third and one out in the inning, Black ripped a RBI single to short, plating Whitten with the go ahead run.
Maine added three runs in the top of the fifth on a three run homer from Calbick. Heath and Patzalek put together back-to-back singles before Calbick stepped in and belted his second home run of the season to center field, giving the Black Bears a 7-3 lead.
The Black Bears kept the run producing up as they would add a run in the top of the sixth. With two away in the inning, Gay started a two-out rally with a single into left field. I. Leisenheimer followed by reaching on an error by the Retrievers' centerfielder which allowed Gay to come all the way around from first to score.
Maine plated one more final run in the top of the seventh when Black sent a deep fly ball into centerfield that proved to be deep enough for Mike Connolly to tag from third and score on.
Steve Perakslis (Abington, Mass.) kept the Retrievers guessing all afternoon as he picks up the win and moves to 3-2 on the season. Perakslis went the distance in the win while giving up three runs and scattering nine hits with no walks and five strikeouts.
Calbick went 2-for-3 in the game with three RBI while Black was 1-for-2 with a pair of RBI.
Steve Miller falls to 0-5 for UMBC as he went 4.1 innings while giving up six runs on eight hits with one walk. Josh Dick pitched 1.2 innings in relief and gave up two runs, one earned, on a pair of hits with one strikeout. Jon Cobo pitched the final inning for the Retrievers and gave up one run on two hits and two walks.

So I'm reading Henrik's article on GoLive for prototyping.
While he is exhorting GoLive he starts by saying that Visio is better.
He begins with some loose qualifications about what might be a good
prototyping tool by doing a comparison of GoLive to Visio:
I still consider <http://www.guuui.com/issues/02_03_02.php> Visio the
interactions designer's nail gun. It's a powerful tool, which makes it easy
to build interactive prototypes in a rush.
We are designing a Windows XP application which will be built using the
.Net framework. The visual design of the interface components
(buttons, tabs, form controls, tables) will be defined by the the
Windows XP styles.
Anyone on the list used Macromedia Flex and the "Halo experience model"?
I am working on a project where we are either going to build our own visual
gui toolkit / interface spec in flash or adopt the Halo model with some
changes. Our development group can handle the server client relationship
of things usining jsp's or the flex model. What I am trying to acertain is
if we can reduce the amount of custom "gui" design while preserving and
developing good interaction for the project we are working on.
Hi JC,
I appreciate you call Andrei to task on his over-generalization.
Tehre are definitely and obviously lots of people who have found comfort in
a singular mouse and top window menubar world.
I think outside of the over-generalization there is a something a bit bigger
at question. So instead of saying an answer, I'll just try to ask the
If you were developing an OS from scratch where you knew about today's uses
of computers what would you do for

Give it more time, the details will come out. Knowing Detroit, some can speculate a professional hit, revenge, etc.... I could venture a guess that the shooter knew the guy was a cop, he knew exactly who he was shooting and why. Maybe the cop was a whistle blower and had alot of evidence on his fellow officers and they put a stop to it. I gotta stop watching so many cop shows on TV. My point, looks like cops aren't even safe anymore. The criminal maggots in Detroit really have no regards for who they shoot at or who gets hit. It's getting to be a war zone in that city, and it's spilling out into the suburbs. I know, I live in the Detroit burbs.
There is no evidence that the shot came from outside the car (according to the article).

One of which is the proverbial 'it just went off by itself.'
The other, well, you know.

http://www.handgunforum.net/general-semi-auto/9595-first-gun.html), I'll stick with them, thanks. Anyway, opinions on gun quality - like RIA, the quality of which is known in my industry to be uneven - are very different from objective facts about shot patterns and recoil forces, both of which are easily measurable.
Objective, non-opinion fact #1: A 20 gauge has about 21 foot pounds of recoil energy. A .223 has about 3.2 foot pounds of recoil energy.
Objective, non-opinion fact #2: Industry standard for buckshot spread is roughly 1" per yard, and many guns and loads will pattern much more tightly than that. This means that at typical home defense distances, the pattern might be 3-5" wide. This is hardly a cone of fire that can simply be pointed down a hall. Rather, it must be aimed in order to hit the target.

Southern Illinois University Carbondale junior point guard Holly Teague has been named Missouri Valley Conference Newcomer of the Year for the recently completed 2000-2001 women's basketball season.
Teague beat out Sharon Blade of Illinois State, Kinga Kiss of Southwest Missouri State and Kristy Thomann of Indiana State for the honor. The only other time a Saluki woman has won this award was in 1995 when Cari Hassell was awarded both Newcomer and Freshman of the Year awards as well as being named to the All-Newcomer team.
This past season Teague was tops on the Salukis with 117 assists while averaging 9.4 points and 3.2 rebounds a game in playing a team-high 34.4 minutes a game. In the MVC Teague was ranked fourth overall in assists.
The Poplar Bluff, Missouri native came to SIU from Three Rivers Community College where she was first-team All-Region and All-Conference while averaging 20 points and five assists a game. At Poplar Bluff High School, Teague was a four-time All-District player as well as being second-team All-State and All-Conference. She is the daughter of Brad and Deana Teague and has one sister, Heather.
In addition, center Kristine Abramowski was named honorable mention on the MVC Scholar-Athlete Women?s Basketball Team. The senior from Freeport, Illinois posted a 3.01 GPA in Elementary Education.

The spectrum of risk and concomitant factors in stuttering is generally thought to be wide and heterogeneous. However, only a few studies have examined these factors using information from large databases. We examined the data on 11,905 Swiss conscripts from 2003. All cases with high psychiatric screening scores indicating "caseness" for a psychiatric disorder were excluded, among them potential malingerers, so that 9,814 records remained. The analyses rely on self-reported information about stuttering in childhood, problems at birth, problems in school, mental disorders of parents and relatives, childhood adversity and socio-demographic information. Statistical modelling was done using logistic regression and path analysis models. Risk factors determined in the logistic regression include premature birth, probable attention deficit hyperactive disorder, alcohol abuse of the parents, obsessive-compulsive disorder in parents and relatives, having a disabled mother and having a parent from a foreign country. There is no overwhelmingly strong risk factor; all odds ratios are about 2 or below. In conclusion, large databases are helpful in revealing less obvious and less frequent risk factors for heterogeneous disorders such as stuttering. Obviously, not only secondary analyses, but also systematical large scale studies would be required to complete the complex epidemiological puzzle in stuttering. An extensive examination of young adults who were initially assessed in childhood might provide the most promising design.
