SWEDEN: NEVS pencils autumn 2013 for Saab 9-3 petrol/diesel restart
By Simon Warburton | 13 May 2013
National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), says it is aiming to restart Saab production this autumn as it continues a recruitment drive for its new venture.
NEVS is looking to produce both petrol and diesel versions of its 9-3 model and although no sales numbers have yet been envisaged, the company is talking to around 500 potential component manufacturers and Scandinavian supplier body, FKG.
"The aim for the restart...with the existing 9-3 model we hope we would start later this autumn," a NEVS spokesman told just-auto from Sweden. "The production start is with the existing 9-3 - that is not an electric vehicle - the launch of the EV will be in 2014."
"When we started the dialogue with suppliers, because of the demand we experienced, we wanted to restart with the conventional powertrain later this year. Around 80% of the parts [are] the same for the vehicle based on the 9-3."
NEVS is discussing its requirements with suppliers for the petrol/diesel version of the car itself, as well as for future electric vehicle production that aims to see the large Saab plant at Trollhattan near Gothenburg restart work.
The Trollhattan site currently employs around 140 staff paid by NEVS, who are working on components for Saab Automobile Parts that never had the same bankruptcy problems of the car manufacturer.
The component company is owned by the Swedish government as it has shares as security for the European Investment Bank loan.
"We are recruiting personnel to be ready for production whenever that will be," said the NEVS spokesman. "It is not that we have made the single production start [date], but we are still in negotiations and discussions with suppliers.
"There are still some parts we need to secure. There are around 2,400 different parts to produce. We had discussions with around 500 suppliers, so it is pretty tough work and it is not finalised."
NEVS has previously said it is partnering with Chinese investment company, Quingdao Qingbo, to produce Saabs in China, with what appear to be other partners also involved in the joint venture.
Quingdao Qingbo - owned by the city of Quingdao - said it would plough SEK2bn (US$303m) into the operation that will see it take 22% of NEVS through a rights issue.
The deal will see production run in tandem with that of electric vehicles at Saab's Trollhattan factory in Sweden, although no numbers are yet available for volumes in both countries.
Speculation in China has formerly centred on a total investment of 10bn Yuan and annual production of around 400,000 models per year for the new venture in the country.

Did you know that the double skim sugar-free latte you paid for with your credit card this morning could have earned you points toward a free cruise ... on any ship?
SeaMiles, which introduced its first cruise loyalty credit card (for Carnival) two and a half years ago, just launched SeaMiles Visa Rewards. This new "universal" credit card rewards cruisers for purchases with points that can be used to save money on cruise travel with any line, at any time -- there are no travel blackout dates or restrictions (which is often a sore spot for airline reward card holders).
What's also different about this card compared to cruise line credit cards -- even SeaMiles' Carnival card -- is that points are treated like cash rather than a trade-in (for example, 30,000 equals $350, period, not an interior cabin on a three-night Bahamas cruise as it works for Carnival). And they can be used toward any cruise on any line, unlike, say, Royal Caribbean's Royal Points, which can only be redeemed through Royal Caribbean.
The only catch? SeaMiles must be applied to bookings made through SeaMiles or one of their preferred agents; a list can be found on seamiles.com.
Here's how accrual and redemption work: For every $1 spent on a cruise booking through SeaMiles or a SeaMiles partner agent, you'll earn three points. For every $1 you spend on everyday expenses (gas, groceries, lunch at Taco Bell, new shoes at Bloomingdales) or a cruise booking through a non-SeaMiles partner agent, you'll earn one point.
Every 5,000 points is equivalent to $50; for every 20,000 SeaMiles redeemed, you'll also earn a $50 bonus credit -- that's why the 30,000 mentioned earlier is really worth $350. Check out this chart for more points-to-dollars conversions. When you're ready to redeem points (the minimum redemption is 5,000), call SeaMiles or a preferred agent and the corresponding dollar value will be applied toward your booking; you can use SeaMiles to pay for some or all of any cruise balance.
Here are the rest of the financials -- and the fine print:
0 percent fixed APR for the first six billing cycles following opening.
No annual fee, a nice bonus for a reward card (most airlines' credit cards carry an annual fee of $40 to $90).
17.24 percent variable APR -- competitive in the general reward card market, but a little high in the cruise niche. Continental Airlines, United, US Airways, JetBlue and Delta offer an 18.24 percent variable APR on cards with varying annual fees. Meanwhile, Royal Caribbean offers a 14.24 variable APR to Platinum Plus card holders (those with better credit) and 18.24 variable to everyone else, and NCL offers a 9.9 variable APR to Platinum Plus customers and 15.99 to everyone else -- both with no annual fees.
Note: Variable APR's are determined by the bank, not SeaMiles or any cruise company or airline.
SeaMiles can also be applied to airfare and resort stays, and your membership also grants you access to discounted rates on cabin upgrades.
Unused SeaMiles expire five years from the date they were earned, though SeaMiles President Peter Rooney tells us that this is a technicality "for accounting purposes" only, and that SeaMiles will continue to honor expired points. Because this scenario won't arise until, well, five years from now, it's hard to road-test it; check back in 2012!
SeaMiles hopes to launch more line-specific cards in the future, according to Rooney, with different benefits and rewards program. In the meantime, you can apply for the SeaMiles Visa Rewards card here. Of course, your application and credit report are subject to review, and all cruises are subject to availability.

In the old world you went to school and then you got a job. You may not have liked this job. But it was a job and you would do the same sort of job for the rest of your life.
We all know what disrupted this old world: high-speed Internet, computing power, indebtedness of Western nations and the rise of developing nations. The certainties and structures of education, employment and retirement that the west "enjoyed" are just a memory.
At the same time, our own personal content, put out through a variety of online platforms, can reach much wider audiences than the old companies ever could. Suddenly, by creating content and promoting ourselves, we can work from home doing more interesting jobs than we ever did for the old corporations.
In this new order, connections are key. Connections are like nodes in the central nervous system. Each node is connected to thousands of nodes which are also connected to thousands of nodes. Thus a single node can quickly influence millions of others.
And what is passed between these connections? Information, knowledge and skills. And quality information, knowledge and skills are passed between connections like wildfire.
What happens in the new world order?
Anyone, with a designer from Holland, a coder from Eastern Europe and support staff from the Philippines, can set up a business almost overnight. And, with a wing, a prayer and an awful lot of luck, this business could compete within a multibillion-dollar corporation's marketplace.
… the more connected we are, the more empowered and demanding we become. We learn to expect things in real-time … information and technology are commodities. This resets markets and flattens the landscape for business where now and in the future, no business is too big to fail or too small to succeed.
Brian Solis from Why Non-Profits and Businesses Need to Act Like Startups
This sudden increase of information propagation has created a huge need for tools and services to deal with it.
During the goldrush in the middle of the 19th century, those who made the shovels and the clothes made the most money. In the new world order, the people in most demand are the ones who can gather and filter information – or gather and filter connections.
So we need teachers to find our way in the new world.
Content means teaching and learning
Successful people are those that can quickly adapt to new technologies. And once they have learned these new technologies they can teach them. And this teaching will be in high demand.
The most effective form of content marketing therefore is the teaching of new technologies – especially the technologies that process information.
So, try to teach with your content. Explain about all the new tools that you are using in the new economy. The most successful posts on this blog are the ones where I do just that.
Here are some teaching content ideas that I think would work really well:
- Teach how to use tools that share to multiple social networks
- Teach how to speed up your WordPress site
- Teach how to ensure you get more subscribers without being pushy or salesy
- Teach how to improve video and audio production
- Teach how to set up a multi-user e-commerce site with an affiliate scheme
- Teach how to get more targeted and influential Twitter followers
But it's not just about blog posts. Remember those two pillars of the new world order: connections and information.
These days we're teaching and learning on a social media platforms. Here are some of the more powerful examples (which include video):
- Google Plus is a social media platform and you can teach or learn there by screen sharing in Google Hangouts (and later on YouTube). Check out Ileane Smith's recent Triberr training.
- YouTube is a social media platform and you can teach or learn there.
- Udemy and SkillFeed (and a plethora of other online learning platforms) are social media platforms and you can teach or learn in these places and get paid
But, of course, you don't have to do your teaching and learning on these platforms exclusively. There are webinars, podcasts, membership sites, etc.
So, it's not all about content. For me it's all about learning and teaching. And enjoyment. Enjoy teaching, enjoy learning and love helping people – that also helps. 🙂
You can do it!
Remember, you are an expert. If you're not creating videos on YouTube, I would start right now. Video learning is huge.
You can do it. You can sell your expertise online. Read Sell Courses Online With Udemy and How I Made $1421.20 On Udemy This Week.

White Paper
Infection Control in the Healthcare Environment During Construction
In April of 2001, the American Institute of Architects (AIA) issued directives in the Guidelines for Design and Construction of Hospitals and Health Care Facilities which formalized the Pre-construction Risk Assessment (PCRA) and Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) process. Later that same year, The Joint Commission adopted the AIA guidelines as part of their regulations and established an enforcement date of January 2002. Since that time, healthcare facilities have been required to use the AIA guidelines and to provide documentation of compliance.
This white paper reviews the elements of compliance and identifies a solution for maintaining PCRA documentation that has been successfully implemented at a leading teaching and research hospital in the United States.

You found me. Phew.
There are so many Jamie Lynns out there: Britney's early-blooming little sister, the cutting-edge snowboarder whose artwork I'm happy to take credit for, and the overly blonde, overly voluptuous porn star whose DVD sleeve sits at my writing desk, a thoughtful gift from my friend Bob; he presented the glossy cover of the Anti-Me around a campfire and a bottle of Jim Beam (but kept the DVD for himself, for a rainy/maybe just partly cloudy day).
Jamie Lynns all around, but so far, only one me.
Welcome to jamielynnmiller.com. I'm glad you stopped by.
Now put your feet up, crack a cold one, and stay awhile.

Readers of SFGate, the online San Fran Chronicle thing (they hate it when you call it San Fran), thinks beet salad (like this one from Whole Foods) and risotto are played out as menu items in Bay Area restaurants.
Also burgers and bruschetta. Michael Bauer et al are playing off a Bon Appetit list of five ubiquitous dishes-beet and goat cheese salad, bruschetta, short ribs, panna cotta; bacon-wrapped dates.
Now I'm gonna play off Michael B's readers, who suggested burgers, sushi and pork belly as victuals-too-weary-for-words.
Bruschetta, um, yeah. It's so amazingly lamely done most places-stale bad bread with old bean purees, bad tomatoes, too much cheese.
I'm going to disagree about the burgers-I don't think we'll have too many good burgers until MacDonald's and the King are out of business.
But sliders, definitely. At least, "sliders"-the ones that aren't actual little hamburgers.
I like real sliders, smaller than usual hamburgers (like the ones at Marley's inside the Harley dealership in Lindon.)
Anything that moves in the opposite direction of a half-pound burger, I'm for.
Beet salad? No, I'm still pleased I can get fresh beets and goat cheese on so many menus. What it lacks in originality it makes up for (usually) in dependable quality.
And risotto? Until I can order a dependably decent one, I can't say they're played out exactly. But sometimes I think Utah chefs should just give up trying. Let me put it this way: I WISH that good risotto was a contender for overdone dish.
My own list: Tuna tops it. If I'm never served another bite of ahi tartare, it will be too soon. We've eaten this wild fish past the point of mere palate fatigue; we've eaten it nearly to extinction. I'm going to run that terrifying photo of guys shooting tuna to prove my point again.
In fact, I'd put most sushi on this list--there's a horrifying, ever-increasing number of sushi restaurants here in SLC in the middle of the desert. it hardly bears thinking of, really. Am I the only one who is disgusted by reading a banner advertising "HALF PRICE SUSHI"? Or "ALL YOU CAN EAT SUSHI"? That's just gross.
(But if you like the sushi USB you can get one here.)
Flourless chocolate cake is beyond over; it was history twenty years ago when I was still in the catering business and made dozens of these every day and any restaurant aspiring to more stars than Denny's should be embarrassed to have it on their menu in 2010.
And now, molten chocolate cake should be history. Why can't pastry chefs come up with something else to do with chocolate?? It's one of the current culinary paradoxes that, the more we learn about high-quality chocolate, and the more it is available to us, the fewer good chocolate desserts there are. Discuss.
Yes, some restaurants still make a good one-Vinto. Prime. If you want to make one yourself, here's a good recipe with some serving hints. And, by the way, does this photo remind anyone else of Mick Jagger? Or am I just crazy?
Fish on mashed potatoes. I never thought this was a good idea, even when it was the rage over a decade ago, except maybe for those with undependable dentures. But it's still on menus all over Utah.
Crabcakes anywhere except where crabs live is a ridiculous and usually less than edible idea. Give. It. Up. And really, I could happily go out on a limb and say that no one except Faidley's in Baltimore's Lexington Market should be allowed to serve crabcakes. (Just looking at one, Saltines and all, makes my mouth water.) But they're on every menu in Utah, it seems.
Which brings me to the unavoidable point that dishes that have jumped the shark in other places could be just now cresting in Utah.
What do you think? What are the most overplayed restaurant dishes in Utah?

i'm from california. a very, veeerryy diverse place. and the funny thing is, i've tried more different foods here in hawai'i then i have in california. it's kinda funny, and weird, and delicious. =]
me and my three friends (maida's the one in the picture!) decided to go to this egyptian restaurant (WHAAAAATT?! egyptian?!) which i had never tried before, so i was stoked. we walk in and to our shock, it's sort of a fancy place..and we were coming from the beach, so we were faaaaar from fancy. it was kinda funny seeing us walking to our table with our heads low hoping no one would see us, ahhaha. anyways, so we ordered our food and waited in excitement because..they were going to have a BELLY DANCING performance! our food arrived and we all died and went to heaven! it was sooooooo gooodd! i can't remember exactly what i got, i think it's lamb and humus with a delicious salad..hmm..not sure, but i DEFINITELY recommend this place! it's near campus but i don't know the exact directions. the place is called pyramids, if i'm not mistaken and it's a little pricey ($25) but WELL worth it! =] plus, the performance was very entertaining!
it's kind of hard to see exactly what this is but it's called a pastel, i believe. it's brazilian food that we happen to randomly find on an adventure in waimea and haleiwa, north shore. i happen to go a couple weeks ago to where the food truck is located but it wasn't there =( i'm not sure what happened to it, if the owners are still in business or what is going on but i hope they return! they were located next to a safeway out there. this stuff is soooo yummy, it's like a hot pocket but better! it's stuffed with your choice of chicken, cheese, and/or vegetables and then it's fried! not expensive at all and the owners are super friendly!
i haaaaad to try grits with shrimp and cheese at this soul food place that is near campus! it was like, $12..? soo good! i went with my friend rob who got fried chicken with cornbread and collard greens! seriously, try it! i loved it! =]
ohhhhh maaaaaan. on this day, i learned that there is nothing better than home-made PUERTO RICAN food! my friend Giovanna's parents were visiting and she asked them to broaden our horizons with this delicious meal! words cannot describe how amazzzzing this dish was!
aaand of course, the HAWAIIAN food is a MUST here! me and my cousin went to the luau at PCC (polynesian cultural center) and this is what was served! i personally am in love with hawaiian food! it's just tooooo good! i highly recommend this as well! my favorite is the chicken long rice! mmm yummy!
aaanndddd lastly, the most diverse and unknown food of all.. =]

Card Game, Lindbergh, King Collection
On May 20-21, 1927, Charles Lindbergh literally flew into history when he crossed the Atlantic Ocean in his Ryan NYP Spirit of St. Louis, thus becoming the first pilot to fly solo and nonstop from New York to Paris. This flight made Lindbergh a household name and catapulted him into fame and celebrity. The objects of popular culture in the National Collection display everything from ashtrays to wristwatches reflect the public adulation for Lindbergh and the powerful commercial response to his celebrity. More than 75 years after the Spirit's historic flight, Lindbergh's name still has the power help sell manufactured goods.
Gift of the Stanley King Family.
Physical Description:
A box with an image of the Spirit of St. Louis flying in front of a cloud. Above the image in black lettering "LINDY THE NEW FLYING GAME" The cards have images that go along with the text on the card. Most feature the Spirit of St. Louis because they involve the airplane in some form. The cards vary from Hop-Off to Gasoline.

Wall Street ratings agencies set the tone for today's stock market.
Mount Whitney, at over 14,000 feet, is the highest summit in the contiguous United States but until Friday the

[Fire restrictions Graphic] Fire Use Restrictions on the Angeles are determined by a graduated system that becomes more restrictive as fire danger levels increase. The 'High' fire danger level is the third in a six-level graduated rating system which is used by the Angeles as a tool to convey current fire danger levels to forest visitors. These levels each convey an intended use restriction to inform people of the limits of fire use under the cumulative fire danger for the forest. A variety of criteria is used to determine when the level should be increased including vegetation moisture, weather conditions and firefighting staffing/equipment needs.
Dry summers, steep slopes and dense vegetation make wildfires a constant threat to National Forests, especially during the hot summer months. Wildfires destroy trees and hillside vegetation, endanger lives and property, and damage vital watersheds. Your help is needed to preserve these valuable lands from the ravages of wildfire.

Justin Bieber had drugs and related paraphernalia all over his house, including the ingredients to make sizzurp, TMZ reported Jan. 20.
A police raid on Bieber's Los Angeles mansion Jan. 14 revealed he had two entire cookie jars full of weed, four to five empty codeine bottles, and three bongs used to smoke marijuana.
Codeine is a narcotic pain reliever used in combination with promethazine (an anti-nausea drug) to make sizzurp, Bieber's alleged drug of choice.
Justin, 19, has reportedly been overdosing on other prescription drugs, alcohol and weed, causing concerned friends to urge him to go to rehab before his drug addiction turns deadly.
Interestingly, the police didn't seize any of the drugs or paraphernalia because they had initially conducted the raid to find evidence linking Bieber to the alleged vandalization of his neighbor's home. The drug discovery was outside the legal scope of the police search warrant.
Ironically, Justin insisted in 2012 that he would never abuse drugs or alcohol because he doesn't want to fall prey to the self-destructive behaviors that have marred the lives of other teen stars.
"[Some people are waiting for me to] mess up because a lot of teen stars do," said Bieber. "They make that mistake of getting into drugs or alcohol."
Bieber vehemently insisted that would never happen to him because he surrounds himself with people he trusts to whom he can confide his problems (like his mom, pictured above).
Update: Justin Bieber's home didn't look like a drug pad or have cookie jars of weed, says cop

A new class of women for the colonies
|A new class of women for the colonies: the imperial colonist and the construction of empire
|Lisa Chilton
|Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History [Great Britain]
|Start page
|End page
|The Imperial Colonist, a widely disseminated journal founded in 1902, was produced by women and designed to promote female emigration to Britain's colonies and to educate Britons and colonists about the empire. Members of female emigration societies were elite British women with close ties to influential men within the Anglican Church and the British and Dominion governments. They largely shared their male counterparts' political views, their sense of class and racial superiority, and their conviction that British imperialism was a civilizing, enlightening force. However, unlike other emigration promoters, female emigration societies' members were determined to settle large numbers of women from above the working class in the colonies. Beginning in the 1860's, they stressed that the empire's proper domestication hinged on the civilizing power of British women of gentle birth. Given the gendered nature of labor economy, domestic service, as The Imperial Colonist reveals, was the means to achieve the empire's domestication. Female emigration societies had to convince the colonies that employing gentlewomen as educated home help made sense, and it had to sell such employment to gentlewomen. Home help was promoted as a stepping-stone to better opportunities, financial stability, sanctified heterosexual love, and good fun, as gentlewomen in the colonies were unfettered by archaic social conventions. Few ideal candidates stepped forward, and even those from the ideal social background required training in their new roles.

Jewish Professor 'Murdered by Arabs' in Ukraine University
Three Arab students in university at Lviv sought revenge for their dismissal, Arutz Sheva learns.
By Gil Ronen
First Publish: 10/20/2012, 8:37 PM
New Jewish center in Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine
A Jewish professor in the university in Lviv, Ukraine, was murdered by three Arab students, Arutz Sheva has learned.
According to initial details, the three students had failed in their studies and sought revenge for their dismissal from the university. They decided to murder their Jewish professor.
These details have not been confirmed by other sources.
The victim's brother, who teaches at Ben Gurion University, received the news Friday and got on a plane to Ukraine. He informed his colleagues of the murder before boarding the flight.
The number of Jews in Lviv is estimated at 2,000, out of a total population of about 850,000.

Talk:V9.09 September 2007
From DreamHost
- How about projectpier.org ? It's a fork off activeCollab that's truly open-source and will remain so.
Irixmark 05:35, 14 October 2007 (PDT)
I would really like to use activecollab rather than dotproject. I see that the folks at activecollab have released a version which is still opensource to use (version 0.7.1 I believe). I've installed this on my Mac at home using MAMP and it works great.
Can this be re-introduced as a one-click install? If it cannot, how can I install this into my host account?

Life on the road that has taken Cleveland State to Wisconsin has never been kind to the Viking men's basketball team. And without sophomore center Anton Grady, who is sitting out the season with a knee injury, it didn't get any better this season as the Vikings wrapped up their annual trip to Milwaukee and Green Bay on the short end in games this week against both the Panthers and Phoenix.
After suffering a 69-67 setback on Thursday in Milwaukee, the Vikings moved north to play Green Bay, where the Phoenix had four in double figure scoring led by Jordan Fouse, who tallied 17 points to go with his 10 rebounds.
That pushed the Vikings to 2-13 under head coach Gary Waters against the two Wisconsin foes with both wins coming on the same trip back in 2011. CSU is 1-7 at Green Bay including a Horizon League tourney loss on the Phoenix home floor and 1-6 at Milwaukee with Waters as bench boss.
But it wasn't much better before the arrival of Waters back in 2006. Cleveland State is 4-23 in games in the Cheeze State since the 2000-2001 season with three of the four wins in Green Bay. The only win for CSU at Milwakee since that time was an 82-59 win over the Panthers on Dec. 4, 2010, just two days after the Vikings were 83-75 winners in Green Bay to start the 2010-11 Horizon League schedule.
In falling to 2-4 in the Horizon League and 10-10 overall with the loss at Green Bay, the Vikings saw the Phoenix break a 4-4 tie and race away with this lopsided win where CSU got 12 points each from Bryn Forbes and Junor Lomomba and eight from foul plagued Ludovic Ndaye.
Green Bay had 15 points from Sultan Muhammad with 13 coming in the first half while Alec Brown and Keifer Sykes had 14 points each in pushing the Phoneix to 4-2 in the Horizon League and 10-9 overall.
After seeing the Phoenix take a 6-4 lead on a basket from Fouse with 15:46 left in the first half, little if anything went right for the Vikings, who trailed 43-26 at intermission and saw Green Bay opened with a 12-5 fun to open a 55-31 lead.
Cleveland State returns home to host a Wednesday evening clash with Loyola (Ill.) at the Wolstein Center. The Vikings, 0-9 in true road games, then hit the road again, playing Jan. 26 at Youngstown State before a Feb. 2 game at Illinois-Chicago. It will be the first meeting of the year with both Loyola and Youngstown State while the Vikings defeated UIC, 60-50 on Jan. 7 at the Wolstein Center.

My previous Galaxy had given up the ghost, due to the batteries corroding and jamming inside. Tried to drill them out, but no dice. So... time to upgrade to the 13 LED model. A little shorter, a little thicker:
As you can see, this is a true LED light, with dual switches for "white" and "red" LEDs - the white being the most powerful, and the red for low-light activity. I ding this model for not having a crenelated cap, so it's only mildly useful as a striking tool.
A big plus for the anti-roll notches in the front and back - you put it down, it stays put. It's got good weight. Lumens are not so bright, but the beam is wide. So put this into the "semi-tactical" category.
Now here's a nice upgrade. See the battery cartridge? The corrosion problem must have affected a lot of users, so S&W is trying something new here. The batteries go into a module. This increases diameter (but not unpleasantly so), and reduces length.
This is my bedside light. If I need to get up and not wake up the lovely thing laying next to me, hit the red LED switch and I can navigate where I need to go. If clearing the property, the color red is the best tactical band of the spectrum for not alerting others to my position.
It has good weight, nice scoring on the body for grip, the back cap has clean, well machined threads, and the buttons are encased in rubber to provide moisture resistance. For around $30 on Amazon, this is a good, general purpose bedside light.

Some globular clusters are Messier objects, named after Charles Messier, who compiled a table of such objects to avoid mistaking them for comets. Today, the fuzzy objects in Messier's catalog (designated by number M1 - M113, but those after M103 were not in Messier's original list) are of more interest than the comets he sought. This link allows you to determine which Messier objects are viewable from a particular latitude and longitude at a specific time. The following image displays the Messier objects found near the Milky Way in the region of Serpens Cauda, Scutum, Sagittarius, and Scorpius ( (img src)
The following figure is a schematic picture of our galaxy showing the halo with globular clusters.
The globular cluster page
Here is a set of links to images of globular clusters.
Center of dense globular cluster M30. "This figure shows a schematic representation of the stars in the center of the dense globular cluster M30. The stellar density is approximately one million solar masses per cubic parsec in the central regions. Colors indicate stellar type: a red dot indicates a red giant branch or a subgiant star, green dots are horizontal branch stars, blue represents blue straggler stars and, white dots represent main sequence stars. The size of each dot is proportional to the stars brightness, with the biggest dots corresponding to V magnitude 14 stars and the faintest dots corresponding to V magnitude 21.5 stars. The cluster M30 contains a higher proportion of blue straggler stars in it's center than any other known globular cluster. The green cross marks the dynamical center of the cluster.

I made my own version of the DifferentialPilot class to a RMIDifferentialPilot class that uses all of the RMIRemoteRegulatedMotor classes as well. However I'm missing the isMoving() method call in the RMIRegulatedMotor class. The javadocs also make reference to this but I can't seem to find it. The only thing I found was 'waitCompleted' which isn't quite the same in this case. Or is there something else I should use? They had this working over bluetooth on the nxt before which had the isMoving() method on the motors. It appears it was removed at some point but I haven't found why yet (I assume it was broken?)

The first swanky Hollywood premiere I attended was for this movie, a sequel in which my boss at the time played a supporting role. My roommate Dr. Megan was his personal assistant and we were falling all over ourselves with excitement to be included in his group of guests.
You really only remember What You Wore to something years later if it was truly fabulous or truly terrible. My ensemble that night falls into the latter category. Unsure of how to dress for such an event, I went with "homely random." I wore a fit-and-flared burnt orange skirt that Dr. Megan had acquired from the wardrobe department from another show, with a red spaghetti strap polyester blend top from Forever XXI, a store I had just discovered. Go back and read the sentence again so we're clear: Texas orange and blood red. In unflattering cuts. Even that night I knew it was wrong.
During the actual movie, we sat directly behind a swoon-worthy actor. This was during the last season of Dawson's Creek, so I was particularly entranced. At the end of the movie, I walked out of the theater beside this actor, whose companion referred to him as Sam.
The after-party was held on the Santa Monica pier, and as you entered, there was a long line of men in black suits, with black sunglasses, with their arms crossed, on either side of the entrance. It was such a cool effect.
The entire pier was part of the party, so you could use tickets to ride the ferris wheel or play the games. I stayed close the table and tried to play it cool when celebrities like Christian Slater stopped by the table to chat.
I think dinner was served, though the food wasn't memorable. Our table was close to the dance floor where Biz Markie was DJ'ing and for a long time, no one was dancing. Eventually, the star of the movie himself took to the floor and Dr. Megan and I eagerly joined him and his kids. For several minutes, it was just us and him and a handful of others and Dr. Megan and I looked at each other with wide eyes and white girl moves.
Not long after that, studios put the crackdown on the over-the-top premiere parties. That was one of the last of the great ones. I've been to many movie premieres since then, but none that packed such a punch.
Now it's your turn! Link up your blog in the list using the link to the actual post (and not just to the main page of your blog) and make sure you go visit the other blogs that are linked up and leave a comment. Have fun reading!
Also, don't forget to enter to win a beautiful necklace by Rachel Leonard or an online style consultation from L.A. Stylist Mom! Later tonight I'll finish up my L.A. moving saga and over the weekend you'll hear from my mom and Dr. Megan on what the story looked like from their perspective.
Happy weekend, HH readers!

I've already got 1 gig of ram. If I buy two sticks @1 gig each, can I add them?
Or do I need 2,4,8, etc. Will 3 work or will it only count 2?
Also, can I mix DDR2 and DDR3 RAM?
I have a Dell Dimension E521
According to Dell's product page on the Dimension E521, you can upgrade up to a maximum of 4GB.
The service manual shows you have four DIMM slots, so you can install an additional pair of 1GB sticks. I doubt your system has four 256MB modules in it, so you shouldn't have to remove anything. You probably currently have either one 1GB module, or two 512MB modules.
To answer the second part of your question, no, you cannot mix DDR2 and DDR3. Your computer only supports DDR2, so make sure you purchase the right type. According to Wikipedia:
This has nothing to do with the operating system. You will need to read the motherboard manual in order to discover what combinations may be supported.

Edible Estates, or the Edible Lawn Project, began in 2005 in Kansas when Fritz Haeg planted the first garden in the series. It has since spread to cities all over he world including Austin.
Haeg is not a nutritional expert or horticulturist. Nor is he is he in the agricultural industry. He is an artist and his lawn projects are works of art meant to inspire others and promote self-sustainability. In an interview with the American Society of Landscape Architects, Haeg states,
"While of course I have an earnest interest in growing food at home, what really excites me is the sense of attacking the archaic values of the conventional manicured landscape and replacing it with casual, wild, and handmade gardens that propose an alternative set of values which are more evolved, civilized, healthy, participatory, and full of pleasure. If you see your neighbors remove their lawn and replace it with a space to grow food, suddenly the city opens up for you. I hope this leads to the collective imaginings of a more participatory city that's less like TV and more active, inspiring landscapes and cities that are not there for passive viewing but for active participation."
The project begins with a volunteer. The building of the garden and the first season of growth are presented in exhibitions with photos and videos of the progress.The first sixteen gardens are presented in the book Edible Estates: Attack of the Front Lawn. Haeg is not interested in expanding the project for capital. He is interested only in getting individuals and families to grow their own food. He believes it is contagious. The idea is that a lawn without food is just wasted space.
The Austin edible lawn was commissioned by Arthouse at the Jones Center and located at Sierra Ridge. Sierra Ridge is part of Foundation Communities, an organization that offers affordable housing for families with children, veterans, people with disabilities and seniors.
Part of the project is to use so-called wasted space and replace it with a need that is practical and logical, but it is also doing much more. Knowingly or not, the edible lawn projects are promoting exceptional health practices. Fruits and vegetables that are grown locally are packed with vital nutrients much more than store-bought produce especially those that are not in season.
Food directly from the garden taste better and has less of an environmental impact because it does not have to be shipped from anywhere. The less the food has been handled, the less the chance of contamination.
Furthermore, it saves a bill of groceries and there is satisfaction in doing it yourself.

Greek mythology has many creatures in their stories, this article is going to briefly look at five of these creatures. Thanks to the book written by Edith Hamilton, that was called, "Mythology," for the help in writing this brief, but interesting article about Greek mythology creatures.
1. "The Sileni"
The Sileni was a creature that was part man and part horse. They walked on two legs, not on four. According to Hamilton's book, the sileni has no stories about it, but they often depicted on Greek vases. It makes one wonder if maybe the myths of this creature were lost, or in reality were just centaurs.
2. "Satrys"
Like Pan (Hermes son), the satyrs were goat men. They were depicted as lustful, drunken woodland goats. Myths said that they are a troop of male companions of Pan and Dionysus. They have also been associated with flute playing. The chief satyr was known as Silenus.
3. "The Centaurs"
The centaur was portrayed as being a half man and half horse. They were said to inhabit the mountains and corsets of Magnesia. Though that is just one place where the centaurs were said to live in myth. What is known through myth is that these creatures were loud and wild bunch, especially when drunk.
4. "The Sirens"
Ovid called them the companions of Persephone, the Sirens were often called the muses of the lower world. These seductive creatures would sing sailors to their death. In some early Greek art, Sirens were depicted as birds with large women's heads, bird feathers, and scaly feet. In Homer's "Odyssey" Odysseus has a famous run in with sirens. Even long after Ancient Greece was around sailors believed in sirens actually. It was a very common legend for sailors.
5. "The Gorgons"
Medusa was probably one of the most famous gorgons in Ancient myth, for people to remember. There were three gorgons actually counting Medusa, there were Stheno and Euryale. Their father was the son of the sea and earth, his name was Phorays. The depiction of the gorgons mostly go like this, they had female attributes but were said to have snakes coming from their hair. If you looked directly in their eyes, you would turn into stone.
So that's a brief look at five creatures, and I hope this leads to more look into these creatures, and the fun into learning about these ancient stories.

On Jan 4, 2014, Los Angeles Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick returned to the team after having missed 24 games due to a groin injury suffered in a game against Buffalo on Nov 12, 2013. It could not have come at a better time. The Kings were mired in a five-game losing streak, and needed a boost.
In front of a standing room only crowd at Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles, Quick came up big in the big moments, in a 3-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks. Roberto Luongo was strong all night for the visiting team, and stopped 46 of 48 shots. Quick stopped 27 of 28.
It was also a nice result for Head coach Darryl Sutter, who was coaching his 1000th NHL game.
For a while, it looked as though the Kings' recent frustrations would continue. Despite outshooting Vancouver by a margin of 18-6 in the second period, and 35-19 overall, after two periods the visitors led 1-0.
That would change early on in the third period. At the 1:07 mark, Dustin Brown drove hard to the net, and converted a beautiful pass from Justin Williams.
With the score tied 1-1, Jeff Carter scored the game-winner 12:50 of the third, when he converted a spin-o-rama pass from Dwight King.
Carter would later add an insurance goal at 19:50, after Vancouver had pulled the goalie.
The Kings outshot Vancouver 49-28.
Jeff Carter now has 15 goals, which leads the Kings this season.
The Kings have won all three games played against Vancouver this season, and outscored the Canucks by a aggregate total of 11-4.
Said Jonathan Quick, regarding how he felt after his first game back - "It's good. We got a win. Coming into it that's the only thing we were looking at is trying to get two points, and we found a way to do it. We did it in regulation too. It's a team we are fighting in the playoff race here; it's huge to get regulation wins so they don't get a point out of it."
Quick also made the point that had he not felt he was 100% healthy, he would not have played.
Kings are now 26-13-4 (57 pts), and in third place in the Pacific division behind Anaheim (65 pts) and San Jose (58 pts).
Three stars of the game: 1) Jeff Carter, 2) Jonathan Quick, 3) Roberto Luongo

From "Splash and Dash" to the Alphabet Song: Washing Hands More Effectively
I was out sick last week with a bad viral infection which led to high fevers, chills, headaches and the like. Of course, it's no fun feeling miserable for a week, but it was also scary to think that I could be contagious, especially with a vulnerable toddler in the house.
So, like many people in this age of swine flu, my husband and I tried to wash our hands diligently; the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says hand washing is the single most effective way to stay healthy. But as my colleague, health columnist Melinda Beck, recently pointed out, most people don't do it often enough, or long enough, to be effective. Who knew that the seemingly simple act of hand washing could be so tough?
In a recent Health Journal column, Ms. Beck gave helpful pointers on effective hand washing:
When: Wash your hands every time you use the bathroom; whenever you change a diaper; pick up animal waste; sneeze, cough or blow your nose; take public transportation; insert or remove contact lenses; prepare food; handle garbage and before eating.
While I try to be diligent about all of the above, too often my husband and I are too busy, say, entertaining our toddler and the dog while preparing dinner to properly wash our hands (and our son's) before eating.
How: Simple soap and water, rather than alcohol-based sanitizer, is still the best way to clean your hands. Also, use liquid soap, if possible, since bar soap can harbor germs, though they'll likely rinse off with water. (When I was sick last week, we finally switched over to liquid soap; we had long been bar-soap users because it's more economical–all those free soaps from hotels!–and because I like the feeling of solid piece of soap.)
According to Ms. Beck, it's the actual process of washing that's so effective: soap molecules surround and lift the germs, friction from rubbing your hands loosens them, and water rinses them down the drain.
But many people just "splash and dash" and don't wash their hands nearly long enough to be effective. Use enough soap to build a lather and keep rubbing for as long as it takes to sing "Happy Birthday" twice. (Some people prefer "Row Row, Row, Row Your Boat" or any other tune that lasts at least 15 seconds.) Rinse and dry thoroughly. Ms. Beck has a bunch of other tips and a helpful video here and here, with advice about antibacterial soap, hand sanitizers and hand-drying.
Another colleague, S. Mitra Kalita, says that her family has been fighting flu and other illnesses with the alphabet. Ever since the swine flu epidemic affected a Queens school near Ms. Kalita's family, her 4-year-old daughter has rubbed her hands under the faucet reciting the "A…B…C…D…" song all the way to Z. "The extra seconds in the bathroom have been adding up and I never realized what lazy handwashers we were before," says Ms. Kalita.
I also admit I too often splashed and dashed (and used less-sanitary bar soap) to be really effective at getting my hands as clean as they should be. It's tough as a juggler to spend the time to sing "Happy Birthday" twice each time I wash my hands–although I can tell you that being knocked sick for a week is a far worse proposition. Readers, any tips to help your kids or your busy families be more diligent and effective hand-washers?

Chad Henne: Instilling confidence or creating concern?
On 790TheTicket this morning, Jorge Sedano and I agreed that Chad Henne, at this stage, is "OK."
But "OK" can be interpreted two different ways.
I say Henne is "OK" in a glass-half-full context. In other words, I haven't seen anything this training camp or preseason that leads me to believe he won't become a quality NFL quarterback. He does appear robotic at times, and does stare down receivers too long, and it would nice for him to start playing more instinctively. But he was 7-6 last season, with a subpar supporting cast, and I haven't seen regression. Fans overreacted to the upside after his second preseason game, and many are overreacting to the downside after the third one.
Jorge says "OK" in glass-half-empty context. His point is that the Dolphins won't make the playoffs if Henne is only OK. And while I agree with that to an extent, I believe that Henne has the potential to progress beyond OK — and perhaps up to the league's second quarterbacking tier — sometime this season. I'm not saying he'll do that, but there's nothing about his game that precludes the possibility.
After watching Henne through three preseason games, do you feel better or worse about him?
And have you changed your expectations?

Rakad Ihab El-jechi, and Jose Luis Soto arrested on drug possession charges
FORT PIERCE, Fla. - The St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office arrested two people following a traffic stop Wednesday at the intersection of South 29th Street and Delaware Avenue.
Deputies say they found an "overwhelming odor of fresh/unburnt marijuana."
Investigators searched the car's occupants and the car itself and said they seized marijuana and cash.
Most of the cash was in $20 bills, consistent with drug sales according to the sheriff's office.
Deputies say that they arrested Rakad Ihab El-jechi, and Jose Luis Soto.
The sheriff's office says both are drug dealers in the Fort Pierce area.
Deputies say that they confiscated 171 grams of marijuana and $1,735 off the street from El-jechi and Soto.
El-jechi is a documented gang member, according to the sheriff's office.
Both El-jechi and Soto were booked into the St. Lucie County Jail.

Rotting from the inside out
Pain intense, you're screaming loud
Acids burn in your veins
Won't survive but die in pain
Eyes are hurting, turning black
Decomposing, a human wreck
In agony you cry out
As you coughed, a lung came out
Pus is flowing from the gas
Putrid stench of human remains
Intestines fall out, bloody mess
Maggots feasting on your flesh
Crawl into you via anal ways
Perforating your stomach within a day
All your guts have been gone
No more organs to live on
Your brain's intact, catching sounds
Pus remaining on the ground
Pus is flowing from the gas
Putrid stench of human remains

text: Myvue.com, Autotrader.co.uk and other high profile Websites infected with Malvertising Posted: 28 Feb 2011 09:53 AM | Elad Sharf | no comments Weekends are sacred; most use them to relax and unwind but for some it's showtime! Taking advantage of the fact that a lot of security companies are more relaxed over the weekend, cyber criminals use the opportunity to strike. This weekend, the popular auto trading site Autotrader.co.uk and the cinema site Myvue.com both served ads that redirected the browsing user to malicious Web sites laden with exploits - a phenomenon also known as Malvertising. The Web sites themselves weren't compromised but were serving ads from an ad provider called Unanimis that led browsing users seamlessly - in the background and without their knowledge - to exploit sites. Unanimis serves ads to thousands of Websites and we've received reports that ebay.co.uk and londonstockexchange.com were also affected by this Malvertising campaign. One of the advantages that cyber criminals enjoy with Malvertising campaigns is that they can be easily spread across a large number of legitimate Websites without directly compromising those Websites, but indirectly through the use of a malicious ad. Websense customers are protected from such attacks with our Advanced Classification Engine analytics, our suite of technologies within TRITON. Attack Details The malicious ads were not served from the sites' main pages - in order for the exploit to work, specific ads would have to be loaded by the sites. For example at Autotrader.co.uk, a redirect to an exploit site through an ad would occur if the browsing user clicked on the button to search for a car, and at Myvue.com the same would happen if the browsing user clicked on the button to order movie tickets. It's at those points that more specific adverts are sent to the user's browser. Let's take a look at an example from Autotrader.co.uk. Here is an image that captures what happens in the background when a user searches for a car with any desired criteria: The first step is the URL that the user is browsing to when searching for a car according to his/her desired criteria: you can see that as part of the URL it has the postcode (blurred), the price range etc. In the background Autotrader.co.uk loads some advertisements from some ad providers. At step 2 it loads the advertisement from a legitimate ad provider called Unanimis. The advertiser redirects to the advertisement in step 3. Step 3 redirects further to step 4, but no advertisement is shown. Step 4 is a site loaded with an exploit kit and several exploits are sent to the user's browser. A car search with Autotrader.co.uk: The Exploit The Exploit site is heavily obfuscated and serves several exploits that target Internet Explorer, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and Java. We observed that the exploit kit used is very similar to an exploit kit called "Blackhole". Here are some of the detection rates of the PDF file exploit and the Java based exploit (JAR file). The dropped file installs a rogue antivirus on the user's computer - the software tells users that their computer is infected and offers a "cleaning antivirus" for $59.95. In the meantime the software disrupts the use and ordinary functionality of the computer by hogging CPU power, displaying disturbing pop-ups and more. The dropped file has low detection rate. We have been following the exploit domains in this malvertising campaign for quite a long time now, and it seems that cyber criminals use fee-based advertising networks to propagate malware - that means cyber criminals are willing to pay in order to propagate malware. This goes hand in hand with Websense's threat Webscape predictions last year. A snapshot of the exploit URL in Websense's ThreatSeeker Network (The "L" signifies it was captured with Real Time scanning): The exploit site - heavily obfuscated code: The rogue antivirus that is installed: Leave a Comment Name: (required) Email address: (required) Comments Remember me

When I arrived at Black Bear Brewery in Orono, Maine, Tim Gallon - founder, brewer, and owner of the business - was just finishing a thorough cleaning of his fermentation tanks. A fresh batch of brew had just gone into the refrigeration room for the final step of carbonation and just the right chill.
We sat down at the bar of the tasting area for a casual chat before I got my tour of the operation. Tim's calm demeanor belies an intense determination and resourcefulness. After learning about the history of Black Bear Brewery's founding and development I came to the realization that this man of quiet ease and friendly demeanor built an entire business on his own, top to bottom, pretty much from scratch.
If you had told 21 year old Tim Gallon back around the turn of the millenium that he would own and run a brewery in 2010, he would have laughed. Tim was 3 years into an Education degree at UMaine when he and his friend Matt Haskell took jobs at the Bear Brew Pub in Orono, Maine. That's where he got his first taste of the micro-brew business from owner Milos Blagojavic.
Tim got a crash course from MIlos, then began to brew on his own. When Milos decided he was ready to quit the business, Matt and Tim saw opportunity at their doorstep and decided to open the door. Tim left school and took on the challenge of a business partnership. In the pub's small brewery set up he began brewing his own Black Bear Brewery beer.
"Did you take classes or get training somewhere?" I asked.
"No -- I kind of just did it," he replied with a soft laugh; "I don't think I really knew what I was getting into."
Nevertheless, he got into it wholeheartedly. He read books, visited online forums, and made connections with other micro brewers with questions along the way.
After five years at the brew pub, Tim realized that he needed more space and equipment if he was to establish a serious brewery. He sold his share of the pub to Matt, purchased the building across the street - 19 Mill Street -- and began construction in 2007.
A friend with building expertise oversaw the project, but Tim was part of the creation of his business from the bottom up -- demolition, construction, design. He started out with dairy tanks and graduated to full size fermentation tanks, created a tasting bar, got logo designs from local artist Isaac Wright, worked out a business plan and took off.
"What is the best part of the whole thing," I asked.
Tim thought for a moment. "The product, really. It's a really good product...but it's really the whole process too."
Here is the process in a nutshell:
- some mixture of grain (various roasts of barley) goes into a soaking tank with hot water.
- hops are added, and boiled for a designated length of time.
- the cool down.
- to the fermentation tank, where yeast is added.
- five days later, solids are filtered out.
- crystal clear, flat beer goes to refrigeration and carbonation.
The process involves creating a recipe and making it consistently delicious. It combines the skills of both kitchen and chemistry lab - not to mention business acumen - and Tim has it all. He loves his product from soup to nuts - or rather, from grain to brew. The smell of the roasted barley in grain bags, the taste of the sweet mash after the first soak, the fragrance of the hops flower, the fact that in each step of brewing there are ways to personalize both process and product - Tim lights up when he talks about all of it.
There are 1/2 gallon "growlers" and 22 ouncers for sale in the refrigeration unit at the brewery, but the best place to taste Tim's beer is on draft at any number of local restaurants, pubs, and festivals. Tim's "Pail Ale" and the amber "Gearhead" are his most popular beers, but he makes special batches of other beers all the time - stouts, porters, a harvest ale, blueberry. Next up will be a batch of his brown ale in October.
Tim hopes to grow a little bit more, perhaps get into smaller bottles and six-packs. Though craft beer is a tiny percentage of the beer market (about 2% if you don't include Sam Adams), it is a growing and popular industry "It was the right time, in a way, to get into it," Tim said, "Craft beer is getting big."
And Tim Gallon's beer is helping it to get bigger in central Maine.

So right now I have a bunch of production servers, and I setup remote logging through rsyslog to our staging servers. For anything actually logged through rsyslog it works fine (Even when rotated) but our php5_errors log is not handled through rsyslog for a few various reasons, including we have instances of php writing to it ourselves (that was another devs decision that I can't easily change)
Anyway, it seemed the simple option was to import the log files I wanted (Also doing this with modsecurity's logfile)
Anyway, whenever the log files rotate, it stops sending new information to the remote server. So far I have not been able to figure out how to fix it without restarting rsyslog.
Any help on this matter would be appreciated
all servers are debian squeeze servers, running rsyslog, and php 5.3

Review by:
Benn Birch
on July 04, 2013 :
I very much enjoyed the second book in this series "Passengers to Zeta Nine". It was a masterpiece of description and tech that didn't seem all that far-fetched for the sci-fi genre. "Revelations" however brought back Ben and Lori, Symch and Goster (I wasn't a big fan of the first book because of those characters) much to my dismay. What made the second book the best of the series so far was how there was always another discovery right around the corner. It spoke to the adventurer in me and I felt like I was on Zeta Nine with the main characters. "Revelations" fits in very little with the previous book and is more of a prison escape story with the Symch and Goster storyline. There were some interesting parts in there with the interactions of other characters but just not as good as all the discoveries from the previous book.
The Ben and Lori parts are very typical to their characters; investigative, logical and tenacious. Without spoiling anything it's hard to describe the reasons I don't enjoy their storyline as much. I suppose if you were a fan of the first book with them, that you will enjoy this one more than I did.
The book is peppered with just enough Raife and Nancy to keep me turning pages, hoping to get another new discovery on their new planet, but I felt let down by the lack of writing done on those two, who in my opinion are the real stars of this good series of books.
So the long and the short of it, is it's a good book. It's well written in the style that I'm accustomed to with Peter Salisbury's work but it falls a bit short of expectations. It's definitely worth it for the price, so it's not to say that it's not good value for money. I just can't help but ache for more Nancy and Raife adventures... but then comes the 4th book "Pioneers" which is much more of what the Dr. ordered.

REVIEW: Never Deal With Dragons by Lorenda Christensen
[color-box]Never Deal with Dragons by Lorenda Christensen (DRACIM #1)
Carina Press (22 July 2013), Ebook: 209 pages, Paranormal romance
Website • Series Listing • Amazon UK / US
Myrna Banks works for a mediation firm. It is her job to get humans compensated for any damages done by the dragons that now rule the world. She is dealing with a sobbing pregnant dragon when Trian, her old boyfriend walks through the door. He walked out on her two years ago and took with him some classified documents that got her demoted. He is in her office at the request of North America's reigning dragon to help negotiate a treaty with a rival dragon lord.
It took me a while to actually write this review because I was not sure how I really felt about the book. The story has a decent plot. I liked the idea of trying to prevent a war between two dragons. I liked the intrigue. I actually liked most of the characters. The whole idea of dragons appearing as a by-product of a genetic experiment was pretty cool. The fact that they ruled the world because they are stronger and more powerful. I can live with that. I liked the fact that only a few people can actually speak to the dragons.
What I didn't like was the love story. Myrna is a smart, ambitious woman. She made a mistake a few years before and has been trying to work her way out of it. So tell me, why the hell would you let your ex, that totally screwed you over, back into your life? I get that he was protecting a big secret but he never even checked on her after he walked out with those documents. It almost got her fired, did get her demoted, and turned into the boss' workhorse. When Trian finds out, he still acts like a jerk because "he had a good reason." I really think it sends off the wrong message – let the guy screw you over and come back, if he has a good reason…
So I will, probably, read another book in this series. I do like the world that is being created here, I just didn't like the love story part of this particular book.
A decent attempt at a new world ruled by dragons. I loved the dragons and most of the characters, however the love story just did not appeal to me, and the plot twists were pretty predictable. This series does have a future on my bookshelf, if the author keeps her heroines from turning into doormats when it comes to love.

Reports over the weekend, including this one on Vox about the failure of laws prohibiting hand-held cell phone use and texting while driving carry a lesson on why restrictive gun laws don't work to reduce crime.
The swirl is about an article in the August issue of Transportation Research, in which the results of a study on the effect of cell phone restrictions in California "found no evidence the California ban reduced the frequency of traffic accidents." It is essentially the same result obtained by an earlier study, reported in January 2010 by CNN, which revealed, "State laws that ban drivers from talking on hand-held cell phones seem to have no effect on crash rates."
Look at Washington, where there is a big push to pass Initiative 594, the big money 18-page gun control measure that ostensibly is aimed at so-called "universal background checks." This state adopted a ban on texting and hand-held cell phone use, but drive along I-5 or I-90 any day of the week, any hour of the day, and chances are excellent you will pass at least a few, if not several, people ignoring the law.
Will people ignore the background check requirement, figuring they won't get caught or prosecuted? People flagrantly ignore the cell phone law, evidently for the same reason.
Whatever else these people are, they're lawbreakers. Now, translate this to the proposed initiative's language regulating transfers of firearms. If you fall outside the narrowly-defined exemptions – say you're lending a shotgun to a friend for a weekend hunting trip, or a handgun to your wife's sister-in-law for home protection because her husband is on deployment or at a distant job site – a background check would be required. To get that gun back requires another background check, say initiative critics. Cost per check: Between $30 and $60.
I-594 critics are also suggesting that the Seattle Times is paying a lot more attention to gun-related crime stories. The weekend's lengthy piece on accused Seattle Pacific University shooter Aaron Ybarra brought some interesting reader reactions, including this one from "Iron Lung" which asks, "What's the deal with the Times and guns? It's like reading articles from the onion (sic) on here."
Others contend that the article focuses more on the failure of the mental health and judicial systems in Ybarra's case. Had the suspect been institutionalized, or under strict supervision, is it possible the shooting might not have occurred?
Some surveys suggest that more than 80 percent of Americans own cell phones. If they are so willing to break the law regarding phone use behind the wheel, what makes anyone think that people will comply with the background check law, or any gun law for that matter? Criminals don't obey the gun laws now, and there is no evidence anybody obeys the cell phone law, so the passage of another law seems superfluous.
Perhaps the real problem was defined by Daniel Kaffine, associate professor of economics at the University of Colorado, Boulder, when he observed, "Simply banning cell phone use seems to be unlikely to get any meaningful reduction in traffic accidents. It doesn't mean it's not a dangerous thing to do; it just means when you put the ban into the real world, the actual effectiveness of the ban looks to be much less than its hypothetical effectiveness."
Apply that to violent crime or cell phone use while driving, the same result seems to materialize. Good intentions, or even bad ones, do not necessarily translate to desired results. In the end, what has been accomplished?

Fraud suspect turns himself in at Flagler County jail
Published: Friday, January 18, 2013 at 2:42 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 18, 2013 at 10:31 p.m.
PALM COAST -- A man suspected of forging a woman's signature on a building permit four years ago was arrested Thursday after turning himself in at the Flagler County jail, a Sheriff's Office spokesman said.
The case was opened in February 2009 after a Palm Coast woman hired Steven Craig Watts to do some construction work at her home, according to an arrest report.
Watts, 52, of Orange Park, was the owner of Bright Editions, the company that was hired to do the work, deputies said.
The woman's attorney advised her to contact the Sheriff's Office after she noticed her signature had been forged on a building permit and two other documents that were filed through the city and county, according to the report.
Deputies said all three signatures were misspelled by Watts.
The responding deputy wrote in his report the case didn't meet the legal requirements for an arrest, but investigators reviewed it and decided to pursue charges, said Lt. Robert Weber, a Sheriff's Office spokesman.
"(Investigators) obtained handwriting (samples) from the victim, which were examined and compared with the documents that were filed by the suspect," Weber said. "This resulted in charges being filed."
Watts turned himself in at the jail around 11:30 a.m. Thursday, according to arrest reports. His bail was set at $15,000.
