It looks like the Nexus One may be capable of more than was originally anticipated. On the XDA developers forum, one of their members have created a hack to enable 720p video recording with the 5mp camera on the phone. Cyanogen Mod CM5.0.8test3 has to be installed on the phone to get the hack to work.
It's reported a version for Android 2.2 will soon be available, as well as an updated version to increase video quality and frame rate. With the same processor and graphics capabilities, the EVO 4G should also be capable of HD recording but are limited to standard def by Google. Video taken by a hacked phone is shown below.

I have two square matrices - $A$ and $B$. $A^{-1}$ is known and I want to calculate $(A+B)^{-1}$. Are there theorems that help with calculating the inverse of the sum of matrices? In general case $B^{-1}$ is not known, but if it is necessary then it can be assumed that $B^{-1}$ is also known.

In general, $A+B$ need not be invertible, even when $A$ and $B$ are. But one might ask whether you can have a formula under the additional assumption that $A+B$ is invertible.
As noted by Adrián Barquero, there is a paper by Ken Miller published in the Mathematics Magazine in 1981 that addresses this.
He proves the following:
Lemma. If $A$ and $A+B$ are invertible, and $B$ has rank $1$, then let $g=\mathrm{trace}(BA^{-1})$. Then $g\neq -1$ and $$(A+B)^{-1} = A^{-1} - \frac{1}{1+g}A^{-1}BA^{-1}.$$
From this lemma, we can take a general $A+B$ that is invertible and write it as $A+B = A + B_1+B_2+\cdots+B_r$, where $B_i$ each have rank $1$ and such that each $A+B_1+\cdots+B_k$ is invertible (such a decomposition always exists if $A+B$ is invertible and $\mathrm{rank}(B)=r$). Then you get:
Theorem. Let $A$ and $A+B$ be nonsingular matrices, and let $B$ have rank $r\gt 0$. Let $B=B_1+\cdots+B_r$, where each $B_i$ has rank $1$, and each $C_{k+1} = A+B_1+\cdots+B_k$ is nonsingular. Setting $C_1 = A$, then $$C_{k+1}^{-1} = C_{k}^{-1} - g_kC_k^{-1}B_kC_k^{-1}$$ where $g_k = \frac{1}{1 + \mathrm{trace}(C_k^{-1}B_k)}$. In particular, $$(A+B)^{-1} = C_r^{-1} - g_rC_r^{-1}B_rC_r^{-1}.$$
(If the rank of $B$ is $0$, then $B=0$, so $(A+B)^{-1}=A^{-1}$).
$(A+B)^{-1} = A^{-1} - A^{-1}BA^{-1} + A^{-1}BA^{-1}BA^{-1} - A^{-1}BA^{-1}BA^{-1}BA^{-1} + \cdots$
provided $\|A^{-1}B\|<1$ or $\|BA^{-1}\| < 1$ (here $\|\cdot\|$ means norm). This is just the Taylor expansion of the inversion function together with basic information on convergence.
(posted essentially at the same time as mjqxxx)
This I found accidentally.
Suppose given $A$, and $B$, where $A$ and $A+B$ are invertible. Now we want to know the expression of $(A+B)^{-1}$ without imposing the all inverse. Now we follow the intuition like this. Suppose that we can express $(A+B)^{-1} = A^{-1} + X$, next we will present simple straight forward method to compute $X$ \begin{equation} (A+B)^{-1} = A^{-1} + X \end{equation} \begin{equation} (A^{-1} + X) (A + B) = I \end{equation} \begin{equation} A^{-1} A + X A + A^{-1} B + X B = I \end{equation} \begin{equation} X(A + B) = - A^{-1} B \end{equation} \begin{equation} X = - A^{-1} B ( A + B)^{-1} \end{equation} \begin{equation} X = - A^{-1} B (A^{-1} + X) \end{equation} \begin{equation} (I + A^{-1}B) X = - A^{-1} B A^{-1} \end{equation} \begin{equation} X = - (I + A^{-1}B)^{-1} A^{-1} B A^{-1} \end{equation}
This lemma is simplification of lemma presented by Ken Miller, 1981
Assuming everything is nicely invertible, you are probably looking for the SMW identity (which, i think, can also be generalized to pseudoinverses if needed)
Please see caveat in the comments below; in general if $B$ is low-rank, then you'd be happy using SMW.
I am wondering why nobody mentioned the paper by H. V. Henderson:
On Deriving the Inverse of a Sum of Matrices
To me, this paper gives the most general result:
There are several other variations of the above form (see equations (22)-(26) in this paper).
I think this result is good because it only requires $A$ and $A+B$ to be nonsingular. As a comparison, the SMW identity or Ken Miller's paper (as mentioned in the other answers) requires some nonsingualrity or rank conditions of $B$.
A formal power series expansion is possible: $$ \begin{eqnarray} (A + \epsilon B)^{-1} &=& \left(A \left(I + \epsilon A^{-1}B\right)\right)^{-1} \\ &=& \left(I + \epsilon A^{-1}B\right)^{-1} A^{-1} \\ &=& \left(I - \epsilon A^{-1}B + \epsilon^2 A^{-1}BA^{-1}B - ...\right) A^{-1} \\ &=& A^{-1} - \epsilon A^{-1} B A^{-1} + \epsilon^2 A^{-1} B A^{-1} B A^{-1} - ... \end{eqnarray} $$ Under appropriate conditions on the eigenvalues of $A$ and $B$ (such that $A$ is sufficiently "large" compared to $B$), this will converge to the correct result at $\epsilon=1$.
It is possible to come up with pretty simple examples where $A$,$A^{-1}$,$B$, and $B^{-1}$ are all very nice, but applying $(A+B)^{-1}$ is considered very difficult.
The canonical example is where $A = \Delta$ is a finite difference implementation of the Laplacian on a regular grid (with, for example, Dirichlet boundary conditions), and $B=k^2I$ is a multiple of the identity. The finite difference laplacian and it's inverse are very nice and easy to deal with, as is the identity matrix. However, the combination $$\Delta + k^2 I$$ is the Helmholtz operator, which is widely known as being extremely difficult to solve for large $k$.
I'm surprising that no one realize it's a special case of well-known
$ \left(A+UCV \right)^{-1} = A^{-1} - A^{-1}U \left(C^{-1}+VA^{-1}U \right)^{-1} VA^{-1}$ ,
just set U=V=I, it immediately gets
$ \left(A+C \right)^{-1} = A^{-1} - A^{-1} \left(C^{-1}+A^{-1} \right)^{-1} A^{-1}$ ,
If A and B were numbers, there is no simpler way to write $\frac{1}{A+B}$ in term of $ \frac{1}{A}$ and $B$ so I don't know why you would expect there to be for matrices. It is even possible to have matrices, A and B, so that neither $A^{-1}$ and $B^{-1}$ exist but $(A+B)^{-1}$ does or, conversely, such that both $A^{-1}$ nor $B^{-1}$ exist but $(A+B)^{-1}$ doesn't.

Mar 20 2007Search with Kevin Federline
For some reason that doesn't make any sense at all, Kevin Federline has launched his own search engine called Search With Kevin. Apparently he felt Google just wasn't doing it well enough and thought he'd throw his hat into the ring. The page offers prizes everytime you search like going to Kevin's birthday party. Although that's sort of like offering a kick to the balls as an incentive. I don't know what sort of talents Kevin Federline has, but I'm pretty sure they don't involve writing search algorithms. Or rapping. Or, well, doing anything more involved than asking people if they want ketchup with their fries.

The long awaited April update to the Xbox One has started to roll out to users, with Microsoft's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb dishing on the details in his latest blog post, according to a report today from VG 24/7. Chief among the improvements will be the friends and favorites notifications.
According to the blog from Hryb on the Major Nelson website, the update will start being delivered to users tonight. The director of programming for Xbox Live thanked those using the online service who helped beta test the updates, and that their input helped mold the new features.
Hryb said that the most sought out change to the next-gen console since its release was the notifications for friends and favorites. Users now will be able to tell when someone from either of the groups logs on, and those in multiplayer will be recognized in the friends list.
Another feature rolling out is a status bar that will show Xbox One users the status of game saves while also telling what games and apps are being updated or have been recently updated. Gamers will also see improvements to the Kinect voice and motion function and also the video quality of the GameDVR.
GameSpot previously had reported that among the features would be an automatic rebooting of the system after updates while in Instant On, meaning the update will run automatically and then go into standby mode. Users, however, can turn off that function.

Elkhart Co. schools scrambling to make up missed days
Some area children will be attending school a few extra days to make up for recent snow days.
Tuesday, Jan. 28, marked the seventh snow day this year for some local school corporations. Even with the state's offer of waivers for two bad-weather days, schools still need to make up five of those missed days.
"Currently, we have five days to make up from January, which we will do the first week of June," said Steve Thalheimer, superintendent of Fairfield schools. "With the unusual weather Indiana has experienced, the IDOE (Indiana Department of Education) is looking at ways to allow make-up to take place, so additional guidance should be coming from the state."
Daniel Altman, spokesman for the state department of education, said Tuesday that it's too soon to say whether the state will offer any more help to schools struggling to finish the school year in time.
"I don't want to speculate on options right now," Altman said. "We are only part of the way through the winter now."
He said that the department is monitoring weather across the state and talking to school superintendents.
"It (bad weather) obviously puts an extra challenge there for teachers and administrators…that's why we are talking with schools throughout the state to find out what we could offer in extra support," Altman said.
Concord students will be doing five makeup days -- on May 30, June 2, June 3, June 4 and June 5 -- and the district has taken the state's waiver offer for two of its missed days.
Wa-Nee schools missed seven days this year too, and students already went to school on Martin Luther King Jr. Day -- Jan. 20 -- to make up one of those days, according to Superintendent Joe Sabo.
Other makeup days for Wa-Nee will be Feb. 17, April 18, May 28, and May 29. The district accepted state waivers for two of the missed days.
Elkhart schools said last week that it would not apply for state waivers for two snow days at the beginning of January.
Superintendent Rob Haworth said in a statement that "the most important part of our calendar is providing students with 180 days of instruction."
Elkhart students will makeup missed days on March 24, April 18 and May 9. Other makeup days have not yet been announced.
Representatives of the Goshen, Baugo, and Middlebury school districts were not immediately available to comment on makeup days on Tuesday.

The Best Geeky TV Shows on Netflix
- The Best Geeky TV Shows on Netflix
- Super-Heroics & Space Opera
- The Whedon-Verse and The Brits
- Animated Awesomeness & 'Reality' Shows
- Comedy Geekery & Scary Shows
- Adventure Times
Not long ago I put together a list of the 50 Geekiest Movies Streaming on Netflix. And it was surprisingly difficult to get to 50. Not for a lack of movies that deserve incredibly close nerd scrutiny, but because the studios and producers of the films constantly play a game of Netflix hide-and-seek by taking films in and out of streaming circulation—or they never let the film stream at all.
You don't, however, find as much gamesmanship with the TV shows. The producers and creators have learned quickly that binge watching—ingesting copious amounts of TV shows all in a row—is now a must thanks to streaming services like Amazon Prime, Hulu, and especially Netflix.
Take, for example, a franchise like Star Trek. CBS Television Studios owns the rights to all five of the franchise's TV series: The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise. Even The Animated Series is streaming. That's hundreds of hours of TV, and they're all streaming right now on Netflix. As a point of contrast, the Star Trek movies are owned by Paramount Pictures, so they are free to fiddle around with access rights all they want.
And why shouldn't studios make their old series available? They're not doing big business with those shows and it keeps fans happy. (But that doesn't explain why the entire Stargate franchise isn't streaming. Sigh.)
There are literally thousands of hours of TV available on Netflix, and science fiction and fantasy are well-represented. So pop some popcorn, grab a two-liter bottle of something carbonated, and crank up the Netflix. It's time for you to add some past and future geek classics to your My List.

Daisies (Sedmikrasky) Movie Reviews
User reviews on Daisies (Sedmikrasky)
I have heard a lot about this film and when I saw that it is being re-released I was very happy and could not wait to see it. I really liked this film and if you have a chance to see it I highly recommend you do that. The film is fun, unique, silly and sexy and it is a very different film from what I am used to and I loved the experience that this film provided me. This film was banned by Check government and I really do not understand why, well actually Soviets used to do many things that made no sense. Overall, I think this film is worth seeing in the theaters and telling others about.

Nanostars for hot-spot engineering
With multiple sharp edges that produce electric field hot spots, the star shape is an appealing geometry in surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). Now, reporting in Nanotechnology and using electron beam lithography, researchers can fabricate arrays of these versatile nanostructures and tune the plasmon resonance energy simply.
Giant electromagnetic (EM) field enhancement via specifically designed metal nanostructures plays a key role in SERS. The local EM field enhancement is strongly related to the collective oscillations of the conduction electrons in the nanostructures – or the localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) – that can be excited by external light irradiation. The field enhancement is obtained by the sharp features of the metastructures through the "lightning rod" effect.
Star benefits
Advantageous properties include the possibility of resonance tuning with respect to the available laser sources, light polarization sensitivity and control on the spatial positions of the hot spots. The star shape is a very appealing geometry in this respect because it provides multiple sharp edges that produce electric field hot spots and it allows for the precise tuning of the resonance energy by varying the overall star size.
Star fabrication
The research group at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) fabricates gold nanostar arrays using electron beam lithography and metal evaporation. They are used for chemical sensing of different organic and biomolecules via SERS. The detailed experimental and theoretical study of the optical properties of nanostar arrays with different size demonstrates good wavelength tunability to standard laser sources at 630 and 830 nm. There are also very high SERS enhancement factors that allow to clearly resolve the characteristic Raman bands of the analyte molecules.
More information about the research can be found in the journal Nanotechnology 25 235303.

ST. LOUIS (AP) - Forget the road to the Super Bowl for the Atlanta Falcons. Now, it's more like the road to ruin.
The reigning NFC champions fell to 0-3 Sunday with an embarrassing 35-7 loss to the St. Louis Rams, who have not had a winning record this decade. Quarterback Kurt Warner produced touchdowns on the first four St. Louis drives and ran for a fifth score in the second half.
"They beat us in every way you can get beat," Falcons coach Dan Reeves said. "If you don't play well and you make some mistakes and the other team plays well, anybody can beat you. I didn't think we were going to be 0-3, but there is nothing in this league that can shock you."
The Rams (2-0) have lost 99 games in the 1990s, but they caught the Falcons at the perfect time - coming off a bye against a team with beat-up skill players coming off a short work week. The Rams were in control from the start as they ended an eight-game losing streak to NFC West opponents and a four-game losing streak against Atlanta.
"We're hungry dogs," said cornerback Todd Lyght, who had an interception. "We don't want to just eat the meat off the bone, we want to eat the bone."
St. Louis began the game by grinding out a 17-play, 80-yard drive capped by Robert Holcombe's 1-yard touchdown run. Warner also threw TD passes of 38 yards to rookie Torry Holt, 46 yards to Isaac Bruce and 17 yards to Marshall Faulk as the Rams took a 28-0 halftime lead against an Atlanta defense directed by former Rams coach Rich Brooks.
Packers 23, Vikings 20
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) - Brett Favre led Green Bay to another comeback win, hitting Corey Bradford with a 23-yard touchdown pass with 12 seconds left, sending the Packers past the Minnesota Vikings.
Bradford's catch capped a 77-yard, 104-second drive led by Favre, who beat the Oakland Raiders in Week 1 with a similar last-ditch drive. It was Favre's 12th fourth-quarter comeback and the 15th game-winning drive of his career.
Favre was 6-of-7 on the final drive, hitting Bradford twice and Dorsey Levens three times as the Packers (2-1) scored their only offensive touchdown of the game against Minnesota's fired-up defense.
Randy Moss caught a 10-yard touchdown pass - just his second reception of the game - from Randall Cunningham with 1:56 to play, giving Minnesota (1-2) a 20-16 lead. Both teams struggled to mount sustained offensive drives until the game's fabulous finish.

The Bar is Open, and so is the kitchen. Can I get you anything?
Today we are having चिकन टिक्का मसाला; Chicken Tikka Masala. Tikka means 'chunks', Masala means 'mixture of spices'. According to some Foodies, this dish was created by accident in the Punjab less than 50 years ago. It has evolved and now there are as many ways to make it as there are dialects in India. There is no right or wrong way, experiment and prepare it as you like. It has evolved into Britain's most popular 'Pub Food'. The first time i had it was at my favorite Indian restaurant in Berlin. I lived on Tikka and on Tandoori Chicken from my favorite (from the linked post + new material):
The first introduction to Indian food I had was in Berlin. There was a small hole in the wall Indian place a couple of blocks away from the BASC near the center of the city. I was out for a walk one afternoon and caught the aroma…the love of Indian food began at that moment! Fortunately, the 'old man' spoke English, because at that time my German was very weak. He eventually showed me how to make the recipes that they served. I would moonlight in their kitchen once in a while in exchange for the lessons. Between the full blown kitchen at the BASC, the Indians, the Spanish/Portuguese place at the end of the block, the Turkish Donner Kebab joint around the corner, and the most excellent Szechuan Restaurant at the next U-Bahn stop, I was set for 3 years of good Foodie Stuff!
My version (which changes every time I cook it) is based on the 'Chicken Tikka' that comes from Namsai Express. Namsai Express isn't a 'proper' restaurant, it is a mobile kitchen, a food truck that still operates at the University of Pittsburgh. Every day when I had class from my Sophomore year as an undergraduate through Graduate School they were first choice for lunch. I still have them on speed dial because once in a while the Puti and I will do the two hour round trip to get a big mess of chicken tikka or tandoori chicken, basmati rice, and some naan. The immigrant husband and wife team from the extreme Eastern Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh put in 16 hour days 6 days a week to run that business and all of their food is fantastic.
Lets Get Started:
This dish can be a healthy as you like depending how you prepare it and what ingredients you use. Today I am using 3 pounds of de-boned, skinless, chicken breast. One could also use lamb, fish, or even paneer. Chicken breast works best here fro me. Also, there is heavy cream in the sauce, that can be omitted or replaced with low fat milk. Granted, it wont be as rich and yummy, but it will still be good. So today I will use some light cream sparingly. I like to add some chick peas to the mix both to extend the dish and add a nice texture. This dish can be as spicy as you like. The heat is controlled by using a good hot Sauce like Dave's Insanity, or Blair's Death Sauce. I use either with my own which is made form Habaneros that we grow. You can omit the hot sauces and if you like. However, this dish should have at least a little heat.
There will be Garam Masala, so Here is the review: Indian food is defined by the use of many, many spices. the dishes can range from hot to mild but they are always the most flavorful of all cuisines. The base spices for Indian Cuisine are referred to as Garam Massala; Hetal and Anuja explain the basics of Garam Masala, feel free to deviate and experiment:
Garam Masala may also be purchased at your Indian Grocer or on line.
The marinade: Into a bowl: Cube the chicken into bite sized pieces. Add enough yogurt to cover the chicken, juice of a lemon. Add all to taste: Garam Masala, cumin, cardamon, cloves, black pepper, ginger, cinnamon, and cayenne . I use my Habanero sauce here and use a vacuum marinade container that cuts marinate time dramatically. Refrigerate for at least an hour, the longer the better up to 12 hours. You can also skip this part and cook the chicken pieces with the onion at the beginning of cooking and build the sauce in the same pan if you are in a hurry.
Remember, the point of this dish is to simply add chicken pieces to a spiced sauce. Keep it simple or get complicated. It's up to you.
At The Stove
Slice up and onion into small pieces. Start some peanut oil or ghee in medium heat in a heavy bottom 8 or so quart pot and sweat the onion. Once it becomes somewhat see through increase the heat and add the chicken from the marinade leaving the extra marinade behind. Get that cooking and add a cup or two of water and 6 oz tomato paste (I like this touch, it can be left out) Then start adding the spices to taste: Garam Masala, garlic, cumin, paprika, cilantro, just a pinch of kosher salt, cayenne, some curry powder and turmeric if you like. the HOT stuff we talked about earlier, and some cream or yogurt for sauce texture. Add the chick peas last if you like. The sauce should start out watery and cook down as the chicken cooks and extra water evaporates, Simmer for 30 minutes or so stirring often until the chicken is done and the sauce is at a nice thick consistency.
Serve over my favorite: Basmati Rice Basmati means "the Fragrant One" in Hindi, and some Naan.
Granted, this is not the easiest recipe to make, it requires a lot of work and access to many spices. Experiment! All you have to do is marry some chicken pieces with a sauce and serve over rice, No Problem! So, go get an Indian Cookbook (or go here) take the recipes to your local Indian Grocer and get busy exploring this most wonderful of the World's Cuisines.

After a two year search, the Lansdowne Symphony Orchestra has chosen its new music director, Maestro Reuben Blundell. Mr. Blundell was chosen from a pool of seven contenders, each of whom conducted a Lansdowne concert over the two year period.
According to Blundell's website www.reubenblundell.com, he is the music director of the Hunter Symphony at Hunter College in New York City. He has guest conducted Michael Tilson Thomas' New World Symphony in Miami, Florida, and assumed the position of conductor of The Chelsea Symphony in New York in 2012. This fall, in addition to leading the Lansdowne Symphony, Blundell will also be the principle conductor of the Riverside Orchestra.
Blundell received a DMA from the Eastman School of Music. An accomplished violinist, Blundell has served as concertmaster for the New World Symphony, the Chelsea Symphony, and at the Tanglewood Music Center. Australian born, Blundell performed with many of Australia's professional orchestras.
According to www.facebook.com/lansdowneso/info, the Lansdowne Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1945 at the First Presbyterian Church of Lansdowne. Henri Elkan, Jacques Voois, and Irving Ludwig are counted among the orchestra's former conductors. The LSO, comprising seventy musicians, is a community orchestra offering a season of five concerts performed at the Upper Darby Performing Arts Center in Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania.
Maestro Blundell conducted the Lansdowne Symphony in two concerts over the 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 seasons. The first concert included a performance of Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 1. The second concert featured the Symphonie Fantastique by Hector Berlioz. Blundell will lead the LSO in five concerts for the upcoming 2014-2015 season.

Kevin Moore, convicted of murder, scheduled for sentencing hearing
Moore is scheduled to appear in court for his sentencing, after his hearing was rescheduled twice.
GOSHEN — A man convicted of murder for the death of two men at Saleh's Market near downtown Elkhart may be sentenced Thursday, April 10, at Elkhart Circuit Court.
Kevin Moore is scheduled to appear in court for his sentencing hearing Thursday, according to court files. However, his hearing has been continued twice while attorneys wait for records from mental health evaluations.
Moore, 29, was charged with two counts of murder shortly after he was arrested Sept. 5. He is accused of shooting Jagtar Bhatti, 55 and Pawan Singh, 20, the owner of Saleh's Market and an employee, respectively, earlier that day.
Moore pleaded guilty to the two counts Jan. 23 and admitted he was attempting to commit robbery when he killed the two men. His sentencing hearing was scheduled for Feb. 19. However, the hearing was continued to March 28.
The March 28 hearing was cancelled, however, and moved to April 10. According to court files, the defendant requested additional time to prepare for the hearing.
Moore's co-defendant, Richard Gross, was also charged with two counts of murder. He pleaded guilty to both counts Dec. 9. His sentencing hearing is scheduled for May 1. During a hearing March 13, Gross told the court he wanted to withdraw his plea. The court denied Gross' request.

BRIDGEPORT - Back in October, the Bridgeport Exempted Village School District's account at Citizens Bank in the village had been mysteriously hacked into and the account was overdrawn.
School and bank officials determined that approximately $80,000 was missing.
Superintendent Ted Downing said during a new conference Wednesday morning in his office, that around 90 percent of the money had been recouped.
"We went into an agreement with our insurance carrier concerning the missing funds," Downing explained. "We've got almost all of the money back."
He said the funds that weren't recovered included attorney's fees and expenses spent on forensic testing of the computer system.
"The forensic testing showed that the money was taken when a virus occurred and it came from overseas," Downing added. "It was on an attachment that showed like it was from the Internal Revenue System. It distributed to 18 different people in the western United States."
According to Downing, the district could have followed up with charges against the individuals, but elected not to.
"It would have cost us more to pursue charges against those people involved, so we decided to settle with the insurance carrier," Downing said. "We are pleased with the outcome and want to inform the public that no one locally was involved."
In addition, the school district has changed banks, going from Citizens to Chase.
Downing also wanted residents of the district to know that several changes have been made, in addition to switching banks.
"We have one computer dedicated solely to finances," he said. "We want to ensure the residents of the district that this type of thing will never happen again.
"There are several procedures of protocol now in place," Downing continued. "It takes more than one person with different codes at different times to make a money transaction to happen."
The school district's insurance carrier is The School Plan.

GUEST OPINION - A Death in the Family
Most of us have experienced a death in the family. We can't stop it;
it is the conclusion of life and is inevitable for each of us. In
a world of "guarantees" it is probably the only absolute.
The tragedy occurs when someone passes from our lives well before
their time.
In addition to your family at home, you have a family at work, too.
They work next to you, or you supervise them every workday. The team
comes together to deliver the product, provide the service, manage
the resource and keep the economies of small towns and large metropolitan
areas moving. In an era of working longer hours we may see our work
family more than our home families.
Too many work families in Oregon this year have had a member die on
the job. In 2001, Oregon celebrated the lowest number of workplace
fatalities to date. We will not have good news to report for this
year. As I'm writing this, a great many senseless deaths have occurred
at work, and been reported to Oregon OSHA for 2002. Deaths this year
will exceed last year's record low number. People are losing their
lives in a variety of ways: vehicle collisions, being struck by an
object, falls, explosions, being pulled into machinery
the list
seems endless.
Analysts with Oregon OSHA are examining the data for factors which
may indicate a pattern or trend in these deaths, however nothing that
we have found in preliminary analysis supports a trend. The seemly
random nature of deaths in the workplace frustrates those of us who
commit to keeping workers safe. We have found an unusual number of
heart attacks claiming the lives of workers in 2002. Are we as a nation
under so much stress, or in such poor health, that we are literally
dropping dead at our desks?
From the standpoint of dollars and cents, fatalities are expensive.
They cost employers thousands of dollars in investigative expenses,
increased insurance premiums, potential litigation and numerous hidden
costs that distract from the business of doing business. There must
also be new recruiting and training costs. But the 'soft costs' of
grieving time for surviving coworkers, the downtime that occurs as
people try to cope with loss while continuing to work, the lost productivity
as workers cope with long term scars - those costs are beyond calculation.
It seems ironic that we grant time to help people deal with deaths
outside the worksite, but we frequently don't give people the time
they need to heal a loss in their own workplace.
I have yet to visit a worksite that is the same after experiencing
a workplace death. It affects the workers every day, every time they
have to walk past a piece of machinery that brought their friend down,
or they see an old familiar work shirt still hanging on a peg. The
company softball team is missing that clutch shortstop, and you see
their eyes well up when they recall a great joke that the departed
told the crew so many times before. There is the awkward silence when
you realize you have one handout too many at the company meeting.
A death has occurred in the family.
The best means to guard against these losses are to prevent them!
We need to change the climate in Oregon's workplaces from taking a
passive approach to safety and health on the job, to making it a top
priority. This year, deaths have occurred in a broad range of industries,
from offices to production floors, to mills and forested hillsides.
Nobody is immune. Perhaps it is denial, perhaps it is 'trying to survive'
during difficult economic times or a doctrine of 'acceptable losses.'
Whatever the reason, we are seeing a less aggressive attitude toward
the awareness of safety and health at work.
Raise the awareness among the people you work with. During 2003,
Oregon OSHA will be urging businesses to take a "Coffeebreak
for Safety" to gather their team together over coffee for a few
minutes, and talk about safety and health in their business. We will
encourage employers to talk about safety and make sure everyone realizes
they contribute to the safety team by how safely they perform their
work. Transform workplace safety from being a sign on the plant entrance
to being a philosophy that workers carry with them every day, a philosophy
that saves lives. You will be hearing more ideas about good "Coffeebreak
for Safety" topics during the next few months.
Take advantage of the consultation and training services offered by
Oregon OSHA. We will have a safety consultant evaluate your worksite
at no cost and make recommendations on how to improve your safety
and health program, reduce hazards and even increase employee satisfaction
and performance on their job. This next part is very important. An
Oregon OSHA consultative services evaluation does not trigger an inspection
or an enforcement action against the employer. Consultants and compliance
officers do not 'share lists' or target employers who make use of
our proactive services. Training classes on safety and health topics
are presented by Oregon OSHA in nearly every county across the state.
They cost nothing and may be the best investment of time you will
make this coming year.
Finally, we need insight from you. Tell
Oregon OSHA what you are seeing on the front line of the new Oregon
economy, and how we can assist you. Write your suggestions to me at
Oregon OSHA, 350 Winter Street NE Room 430, Salem Oregon 97301-3882.
My condolences if you have experienced a death in your family at work.
Please, let's spare as many people as possible the loss of a member
of Oregon's valued workforce. Good people, slow down; pay attention;
stay alert. Please be careful out there.

This past Saturday, Insomnia Video Game Culture held their August Ultra Street Fighter 4 tournament. Continuing their trend of large scale tournaments, 56 players entered the latest competition. Among the players were past winners Display Lag Adeel "FourWude" Soomro, Boost Jan Del Rio, Marcus "Nytemare Raven" Ramirez, Anas "Hunted Chimera" Khan, and Mike "BrolyLegs" Begum. Also in attendance was Guile Disaster from Dubai, making a return visit to Houston after first appearing in town 3 years ago.
On Adeel's quarter of the bracket, he swept his first two matches before running into some trouble with Synx, but prevailed 2-1 to advance to the winner semifinals. Below him was Nytemare Raven's quarter, which he swept his way through all 3 of his matches 2-0. Broly and Chimera met in the highest profile quarterfinal match, ending up in Chimera pulling off the upset over the winner from the last USF4 tournament. Guile Disaster was able to power his way through Jan and others to take the last semifinal spot. Raven would go on to defeat Adeel 2-1, while Chimera knocked Guile Disaster into losers as well.
In the losers bracket, Genius and Dandy Cage has solid runs through a huge draw to make it all the way to the top 10. But both would fall in a 9th place tie with Hadoken69 and NYC Sabo. Synx defeats JustRun, and Broly eliminated Sylint to place them in a tie for 7th. Both would then tie for 5th by losing to FourWude and Guile Disaster respectively. FourWude eliminates both Guile Disaster and Nytemare Raven to place them 4th and 3rd. In the Grand Finals, FourWude took a 2-0 lead on Chimera's Fei-Long. Chimera then switched to Yun, and made a dramatic turnaround by taking the next 3 games and winning the tournament! Congratulations to Anas "Hunted Chimera" Khan!

Tennessee v. Dunlap
Annotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
Tennessee v. Dunlap, 426 U.S. 312 (1976)
Tennessee v. Dunlap
No. 75-95
Argued March 22, 1976
Decided June 10, 1976
The National Guard Technicians Act of 1968 provides that a National Guard technician, who is a full-time civilian employee of the Guard, must be a member of the Guard. 32 U.S.C. § 709(b). Employment as a technician may be terminated upon separation from the Guard, § 709(e)(1); for failure to meet military security requirements, § 709(e)(2); or "for cause," § 709(e)(3).
Held: Where respondent's employment as a technician was terminated under § 709(e)(1) when he was separated from the Guard upon expiration of his enlistment, § 709(e)(3)'s requirement of "cause" has no application, and hence § 709(e)(3) cannot provide the foundation for a claim that the termination of respondent's employment and the allegedly arbitrary refusal to reenlist him violated due process. Pp. 426 U. S. 315-316.
514 F.2d 130, reversed.
MARSHALL, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court.

A relatively new economic concept called Climate Risk is being incorporated into general risk management practices. Climate Risk refers to the minimization of the financial risks of climate change by transitioning to a clean energy future. When we talk about financial risks due to climate change, we also refer to the opportunities it brings. Climate Risk isn't only about environmental implications, but it also presents economic considerations, including physical risks, regulatory risks, and the financial consequences associated with each company.
For example, extreme weather events like Superstorm Sandy, floods, hurricanes, etc. can force businesses to stop operating. Floods can damage facilities and equipment. Further, extreme weather conditions may bring hotter temperatures and require more cooling for machines and data centers, for production processes, and for the workers. Severe droughts and floods disrupt operations and supply chains and damage infrastructure and property. The implications for investors and businesses are potentially profound.
In 2010 the government's Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued ground-breaking guidance called "The SEC Interpretive Guidance on climate change disclosure", which requires companies to 'Disclosure of Material Climate Change Risks and Opportunities'. There is increasing evidence of the potentially critical financial consequences of climate change across a wide range of sectors. The SEC's guidelines cover three major areas: regulatory risks—both domestic and international, indirect effects of regulation or business trends, and physical impacts of climate change.
Ceres, a non-profit advocacy organization for sustainability leadership, issued a report and analysis called "Cool Response: The SEC & Corporate Climate Change Reporting". Ceres's reporting is based on a survey of more than 40,000 surveyed companies in the last four years, and an analysis of the state of S&P 500 companies reporting on climate disclosure through the end of 2013. It found that the majority of financial reporting on climate change is too brief and largely superficial, and that most companies are failing to meet SEC requirements. Ceres points that "investors want greater transparency on the business risks of climate change as a means to protect and increase shareholder value" (According to Ceres President Mindy Lubber). However, most U.S. Companies (scoured from the annual reports of about 3900 businesses) have been ignoring SEC's disclosure requirements of climate risks, where only twenty-seven percent of publicly traded companies include 'climate change' in their annual reports. Ceres included recommendations for SEC, since it's not stepping up to adequately enforce the requirements it set in 2010.
In early 2014, the New York Times reported on the United Nations study about climate change that conditions have grown critical and the risk of severe economic disruption is rising. With today's technological solutions, if we wait 15+ years to address climate action and fail to limit carbon emissions, the issues may be impossible to solve. The U.N. study found that, if we don't act now, greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere would threaten the livability conditions of the planet in the future, resulting in extensive global economic disruption and the need for expensive scaleable new solutions (which don't exist today).
The report states that nations and their governments are still heavily subsidize fossil fuels than investing in accelerating the shift to cleaner energy. For example, governments continue to invest in coal-based power plants, which cause a long-term climate risk.
Our societies will not be able to limit the risks of climate change without investing seriously in clean energy. The renewable energy projects can presents a big wave in the future. As with all investments, risk tolerance and the horizon are the major factors in funding prospects.
Some investment options for enthusiastic individuals are crowdsourcing, renewable energy bonds, Clean Energy Funds, and individual stocks focused entirely on renewables or electric transportation. Today, 'green' bonds amount to over $ 9 billion. The WilderHill Clean Energy Fund tracks the Wilderhill Clean Energy Index that tracks specific U.S.-traded renewable energy companies.
For example, Tesla Motors in Fremont, California. Tesla has revolutionized the car in Silicon Valley and beyond. Today, Tesla's market share is nearing $21 billion, pushing away the established competing auto makers. Tesla finds constantly new markets, the company advances offerings, keeps introducing new business models, and is aiming to become more economically viable to more socio-economic communities.

It has been over a decade since "Law and Order: SVU" came on the scene. It was the first spin-off of the original series "Law and Order." The main focal points of the "Special Victims Unit" are sex crimes and crimes involving children. Since the show debuted in 1999, there has been a faithful following of fans. Each season has special moments but the first season is always the one people remember the most fondly because it is what started it all. These are the best episodes of "Law and Order: SVU" from Season 1.
Payback (Series Premiere; Season One, Episode One)
The first episode ever for this series is definitely one of the best of the season. The story begins with Benson and Stabler being called to the scene where a cab driver has been stabbed to death. At first no one is sure why he has been stabbed to death, but with further investigation Stabler and Benson find out that the man is not who they thought he was.
Uncivilized (Season One, Episode 7)
This was a controversial episode dealing with registered sex offenders and a dead, young boy. Benson and Stabler are called to the scene where a little boy had been found by two boys playing football. After asking around, the detectives were given names of two teenage boys. While questioning the boys, the name of a man is given to them. The boys claim this man was riding his bike around the park recently and they were told where he lives. Upon further investigation, it is found out this man is a sex offender. The ending will leave you shocked.
The Third Guy (Season One, Episode 16)
In this episode, the detectives are called out to a scene where an elderly lady is found tied up, sexually assaulted, and dead. At first the suspicion is put on two teen boys. They were caught trying to sell the lady's costume jewelry at a pawn shop. After the boys are questioned, it is apparent that while they did rob the victim, they did not kill her. The suspects revealed they saw a white male in uniform in the apartment and then they took off. This case will leave you baffled.

Our Services
A Category 5 hurricane is on its way to your bank or hospital! Are you ready to save lives and millions of dollars? We know how you feel and we can help! Below are the different services and areas that we are focused on.
Business Continuity Plan Development, Assessment and Management
Disaster Recovery Institute International (DRII) defines Business Continuity Management (BCM) as "a holistic management process that identifies potential impacts that threaten an organization and provides a framework for building resilience with the capability for an effective response that safeguards the interests of its key stakeholders, reputation and value creating activities."
The primary objective of BCM is to allow the Executive to continue to manage business operations under adverse conditions, by the introduction of appropriate resilience strategies, recovery objectives, business continuity, operational risk management considerations and crisis management plans.
Business Continuity is not important only to large organizations. According a survey from the Gartner Group, 85% of large organizations in the US have some sort of Business Continuity Plan. Only 25% of small businesses have focused on developing and maintaining a plan. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) now require small business to have an Emergency Action Plan.
At BCMPros, we provide expert consulting for the core areas within the Business Continuity Professional Practices.
Risk Analysis and Risk Assessment
The Risk Analysis will determine the risks (events or surroundings) that can adversely affect the organization and its resources (example(s) include: people, facilities, technologies) due to business interruption; the potential loss of such events can cause and the controls needed to avoid or mitigate the effects of those risks. Risk Assessment, represents the assignment of value to assets, threat frequency, consequence and exposure factors, and other elements of change. As an outcome of the above, a cost benefit analysis will be required to justify the investment in controls.
Business Impact Analysis (BIA)
The Business Impact Analysis (BIA) will identify the impacts resulting from business interruptions that can affect the organization and techniques that can be used to quantify and qualify such impacts. We will identify time-critical functions, their recovery priorities, and inter-dependencies so that recovery time objectives can be established and approved.
Business Continuity Strategies
We will then leverage the outcome of the BIA and Risk Analysis to develop and recommend business continuity strategies. The basis for these strategies includes consideration of both the recovery time objectives (RTO) and recovery point objectives (RPO) to assess and plan for support of the organization's critical functions.
Emergency Preparedness and Response
In this focus area, we will identify an organizations' readiness to respond to an emergency in a coordinated, timely and effective manner. We will develop and implement procedures for initial response and stabilization of situations until the arrival of authorities having jurisdiction.
Business Continuity Plan
We will guide the designing, developing, and implementing of the Business Continuity Plans that provide continuity and/or recovery as identified by the organization's requirements. We will identify requirements for the development of the plan, design a framework for the plan development, identify the process to support the plan, and publish the completed plan. The Business Continuity Plan could be a compilation of different continuity plans throughout the organization like an Emergency Response Plan, Contingency Plan, and Disaster Recovery Plan. We will work with your organization to assure the plans complement each other.
Awareness and Training Programs
We will prepare a program to establish and maintain corporate awareness that Business Continuity Management (BCM) is a part of normal business management and to develop and enhance the skills required to create and implement BCM.
Plan Exercise, Audit and Maintenance
Your organization can have a very detailed Business Continuity Plan but without an exercise/testing program, it is almost useless. We help you establish a program which documents plan exercise requirements including the planning, scheduling, facilitation, communications, auditing and post review documentation. We will also establish a maintenance program to keep plans current and relevant. Our professionals will establish an audit process which will validate compliance with standards, review solutions, verify appropriate levels of maintenance and exercise activities and validate the plans are current, accurate and complete. We will also provide documentation and evidence to third party auditors, hired by your organization, to audit the Business Continuity Process managed by BCMPros.
Crisis Management/Communications
Develop and document the action plans to facilitate communication of critical continuity information. Coordinate and exercise with stakeholders and the media to ensure clarity during crisis communications.
Coordination with External Agencies
We will establish applicable procedures and policies for coordinating continuity and restoration activities with external agencies (local, regional, national, emergency responders, defense, etc.) while ensuring compliance with applicable statutes and regulations.

Mustang enters NASCAR for the first time in 2010
- Details
- Last Updated on Tuesday, 04 August 2009 21:11
- Published on Tuesday, 04 August 2009 21:11

Mustang will be Ford Motor Company's new race vehicle in the Nationwide Series when it begins a limited rollout of its version of the "Car of Tomorrow" in 2010. Mustang's motorsports history includes many types of racing including drag racing, road courses, and drifting. Mustang is the most successful car in Ford's long racing history, but it hasn't competed in NASCAR until now.
Brian Wolfe, director of Ford North American Motorsports, made the announcement this past week that Mustang will debut as part of NASCAR's "new car" limited rollout in the Nationwide Series. "We're excited about Mustang coming to NASCAR," said Wolfe. "It's the most successful product nameplate in racing history, and it seems only right that it should be coming to the most popular form of racing in North America."
"We've been talking with NASCAR for some time about Mustang as part of its vision for a "Muscle Car" rollout for the Nationwide Series. We both saw it as a way of differentiating the series from Sprint Cup," said Wolfe. "We loved the idea, so we jumped at the chance to extend Mustang's racing legacy to a new series reaching a huge and loyal audience. Mustang has dominated other forms of racing, including NHRA drag racing, Grand-Am Cup road racing, and formula D drifting, and now it's coming to the Nationwide Series. I think the race fans and Mustang loyalists will be very pleased when we publicly roll out the first car later this fall."
Ford Racing has gone through the official NASCAR submission and approval process for the new car and once templates are finalized, production of the Mustang parts will start so teams can build the first cars for testing later this fall.
"We're excited about the new car in the Nationwide Series, and particularly the new body styles such as the Ford Mustang," said NASCAR President Mike Helton. "It's going to be one good looking race car."
The 2010 Ford Mustang will join the 2010 Fusion (Sprint Cup) and the 2009 Ford F-Series (Camping World Truck series) as Ford's competitive entries in NASCAR's three major professional series.
"We're excited to be able to race Mustang in front of our loyal fan base and know it's going to win races and championships just like it has in every other series that it has competed in," said Wolfe. "The Mustang created the pony car movement when it debuted in 1964. Now, Mustang has the opportunity to create a whole new look to stock car racing at the highest levels"
From the time the very first Mustang rolled off the assembly line in 1964, it was destined to race. Whether it be from the 1960's drag racing cars and the Shelby GT 350-R SCCA racers, to the Trans-Am Boss 302 Mustangs of the seventies, to the IMSA and Trans-Am cars of the eighties and nineties, to the drag race and sports cars of today, Mustang has been a winner.
Mustang currently competes professionally in the NHRA Funny Car and Pro Stock divisions and places like the KONI Challenge, SCCA World Challenge, and the Mustang Challenge Series. In addition, thousands of Mustangs see action by grass roots racers at road courses and drag strips all across America. Since its debut in 1964, Mustang has compiled more than 2000 professional racing victories in NHRA, Grand-Am, IMSA, SCCA, NMRA, and NMCA as well as other series.
NASCAR had hopped to roll out the new "Car of Tomorrow" Nationwide Series car at Daytona in February, but after meeting with team owners at NASCAR's Tech Center in Concord, North Carolina it appears it may be the July 2010 Daytona race before the new car makes its debut on the track. No surprise, it's all about the economy. Team owner Rusty Wallace said, "The economy is killing us. It's all about bringing this thing out at the right time where the teams can afford it and we've got time to be prepared."

Coffee in the morning to wake up, wine at night to wind down.
Not only can you go to Starbucks to get a jolt of java, but you soon will also be able to sip away your stress from work with a glass of wine. Yesterday, the coffee giants announced their plan to expand their menu to include juices, food, and alcohol in an attempt to boost their evening sales.
The new evening menu that begins at 4 p.m. will include truffle mac and cheese, chocolate fondue, chicken skewers, and Chardonnay. While the plan is long-term, 40 locations have already had access to the additions. Starbucks began testing these menu items in about 25 locations throughout Chicago, Atlanta and California in 2012.
Adding libations as an alternative to lattes began in October 2010, when Starbucks decided to include alcohol sales in Seattle. Beer is sold for $5 and wine prices range from $7 to $9. Starbucks has 11,500 locations in the U.S. alone and are expecting to increase their market by $100 billion.

The hits just keep coming for the poor W.I.P. Club, site of the now-legendary brawl between Chris Brown and Drake's entourages a couple Thursdays ago in New York. The club already was closed down in the fallout from the Breezy/Drizzy incident, and now it's facing its most high-profile lawsuit to date—from San Antonio Spurs star point guard Tony Parker, who was regrettably in attendance during the brawl, and suffered a corneal injury in the fracas. The $20 million suit is over the club's lack of security, which Parker says never should have let the pop stars in at the same time—which led to Parker's injury, which may cost him playing time during the upcoming NBA season, or for Team France in the Olympics this summer.
We understand—the NBA season's over as of last night, and it's a long and boring off-season without a civil suit to keep you busy. Maybe in the future though, Tony, you just stay away from the pop star haunts altogether—there's no telling what kinda muscle strains or ligament tears you might ever suffer as a result.

Technical Abstract: Weeds are often the most common and costly pests in vegetable production, especially in organic production systems. Weeds that germinate during cover cropping and produce seeds will increase the weed seedbank and may increase production costs. This chapter discusses the effect of cultural practices on weed suppression during cover cropping, weed control following cover crop incorporation, weed control by cover crop mulches, and cover crops as weeds.

STANFORD, Calif.- Hope Burke's team-leading eighth goal of the year lifted No. 11 Stanford to a 2-1 victory over Michigan on Friday afternoon at the Varsity Turf.
Trailing 1-0, the Cardinal (12-4, 3-1 NorPac) tied the match midway through the first half following an unassisted goal from Fran Tew at the 17:02 mark.
Stanford, which owned advantages in shots (15-5) and penalty corners (8-1), turned up the pressure in the second half to pull away. Burke's goal came in the 56th minute when she redirected a loose ball inside the circle following a corner.
Michigan (9-7, 2-2 Big Ten) remained within striking distance mainly thanks to keeper Haley Jones' eight saves.
Jones had a strong start to the game as well, making three saves in the first three minutes. Stanford took four shots during that span but had its momentum briefly halted by a green card given to Burke at 31:47, followed by Michigan's lone goal less than 30 seconds later.
Despite the early deficit, the Cardinal continued to pressure the Wolverines until Tew broke through in the 18th minute with her fourth goal of the year. Positioned at the center of the cage about five yards out, the ball fell to Tew's backhand after the initial shot attempt on a penalty corner was blocked. She fired a one-timer into the back of the cage.
Tew also played a role on the second goal, as she created the penalty corner opportunity that resulted in the Cardinal's score. Tew received a pass at the top of the circle and weaved through two defenders before the referee whistled for a penalty corner.
Jessica Chisholm took the initial shot on a set play off the corner, a rocket that was saved by a diving Michigan goalkeeper. Jones tried to clear the ball but instead passed it directly to Burke who took advantage of the open net.
The Cardinal hosts Pacific on Monday, Oct. 28 at 7 p.m. in match that will include a pregame senior tribute.
- - - - - - - - - -
Notes: Stanford has won eight in a row at the Varsity Turf since dropping its season-opener to No. 4 Connecticut in double-overtime on Aug. 31 … During Stanford's eight-game home winning streak, the Cardinal has given up five goals … Stanford has held opponents to one or fewer goals in 11 of 16 games this year … The Cardinal is 10-1 when scoring two or more goals in a game this year … Stanford improved to 9-3 in nonconference games this season … The Cardinal has outshot opponents in 11 of 16 matches … Stanford holds advantages over opponents in shots (241-129), penalty corners (119-48) and goals (42-16).
