Obama's R-S-P-E-C-T flub is getting a little D-I-S respect this week after the president misspelled Franklin's 1967 iconic song as he introduced the Queen of Soul at the White House's celebration of "Women of Soul" Thursday night.
Can someone buy Obama a vowel please? TMZ on Friday said the president "got a pass that George W – the Bush famous for malapropisms – would never have gotten."
"When Aretha first told us what R-S-P-E-C-T meant to her, she had no idea it would become a rallying cry for African-Americans and women and then anyone who felt marginalized," Obama said in praise of the diva.
Obama paused, White House guests chuckled a bit, and then the president plowed on.
Perhaps Obama was a little nervous about being in the presence of a musical legend. I know I surely would be, although I would also make quite certain that I didn't misspell her trademark hit, even if I had to sing it.
President Obama can take solace in another alpha male's recent flub – that being John Travolta's Oscar blunder.
Quite a bit of hubbub was made over John Travolta's name gaffe at the Academy Awards last Sunday. Does he or does he not suffer from dyslexia? Is Travolta seeking assistance with his ailment from Scientologists?
Travolta introduced Broadway star and "Glee" actress Idina Menzel by mauling her name and calling her "Adele Dazeem." Not even close Mr. Travolta.
Which led to this:

Chapter 2: Career development
These career planning tools are intended to help you and your manager collaborate on a plan to get you where you want to be, both in the short term and long term.
A career development plan is a written plan or schedule that sets forth, with some specificity, goals and actions that will aid in your overall career development. The plan should span a significant amount of time, most often 1 year. Reviewing progress on them each quarter with your manager would be a good way to ensure your career goals are being met.
They can address either building on exhibited strengths or further developing areas for growth in your skills set. The plan can help you meet developmental objectives for either improving your current performance or preparing you for positions of greater responsibility. Your career development plan isn't a binding contract but is rather a flexible ongoing development plan that should be updated as often as needed. Initially, you can plan for a year-long time frame and make adjustments as necessary.
Use this as an opportunity to plan training and developmental experiences (training, conferences, project selection) to fulfill specific career objectives. Your plan can change from year to year. Its main purpose is to help you set reasonable goals, assess your strengths, and chart developmental activities and training.
Here are some steps you can take to get started on your career develop:
1 Gather data
Do some type of self-assessment (StrengthFinder, Edge Colors, Myers Briggs, etc) to gain self-awareness about your strengths and work style preferences.
Review past performance reviews and look for themes.
Review the Career Planning Worksheet.
2 Plan
Review gathered data and Career Planning Worksheet with your manager.
Draft career plan and review with manager.
3 Take action
Choose your conferences and training to align with your career development goals.
Seek out project work that allow you to fulfill your goals.
Plan to report back quarterly on your progress towards your goals.

Water Killed the Father of the Brooklyn Bridge
John Augustus Roebling, the famous engineer, was born in Prussia and educated under Hegel. He moved to Pennsylvania when he was 25, to form a Utopian agrarian community and to build suspension bridges. The community failed, as most Utopian agrarian communities do, but his bridges still stand.
But Roebling died years before the completion of the Brooklyn Bridge, his finest work, because he subscribed to one of the many of the 19th century's faddish bullshit alternative therapies.
On June 28, 1869, Roebling and his son Washington stood on a pier near the Fulton Ferry, "making some measurements connected with the East River Bridge," according to his New York Times obituary. "When one of the boats docked," David McCullough reported some time later, "it slammed against the pier, his right foot was caught in something sticking out from one of the nearby piles and his toes were crushed."
That a toe injury should kill a man, even in the medically primitive 1860s, seems unlikely. Until you add in bullshit! Roebling was a staunch believer in "the water cure." Hydropathy, according to McCullough, though it could've been any of the many other forms the belief in the all-curing powers of water and water alone took then.
He was taken at once to a doctor's office, where his toes were amputated – without benefit of anesthetic, at his own request. A confirmed believer in hydropathy (the water cure), he also insisted that nothing be administered to the wound except water. A few weeks later, on July 22, 1869, he died of lockjaw. He was 63.
Or, as his contemporary New York Times obit put it:
It is also said that Mr. Roebling's determination to conduct his own case, instead of wholly and unreservedly relying upon the advice of his physicians, had much to do with the result which so many of his friends now mourn.
The medical application of water dates back to the beginning of civilization. But the faddish form of it, the one that killed Roebling and God knows guess who else, was popularized by an Austrian farmer named Vincent Priessnitz, in the mid-19th century. And he believed, of course, that it was the water from his wells, conveniently located on his farm, that cured anything that ailed you. And so, a profitable clinic was born!
Roebling's son Washington went on to oversee the construction of the bridge. Personally, at first, until he was stricken with the Bends. Washington, a more practical and rational man than his father, did not seek an alternative therapy. But a non-alternative therapy was not actually available at the time, as "Caisson disease" had only just been discovered. (Ironically, the cure is one of the wacky, deadly treatments I have introduced you to right here in this very space!) It was, on the whole, a family that might've done best to stay away from water entirely: Washington A. Roebling II, John Roebling's grandson, went down on the Titanic.

When we think of rocking chairs we think of rickety stained wood furniture for old people. Well, the Eames Molded Fiberglass Armchair Rocker ($599) is not your grandma's rocking chair! Colorful, modern, and made of fiberglass, you'll be excited to shake back and forth in this chair while sitting in front of the television. And, fine, Grandma can give it a try too if she promises not to complain about it.

The Miami Hurricanes offense may have exploded for 17 runs but it was the man on the mound who epitomized perfection Tuesday night.
Senior Javi Salas pitched the game of his life against Villanova, retiring all 27 batters he faced on 113 pitches to record just the second perfect game in Miami history as the No. 16 Hurricanes defeated the visiting Wildcats 17-0.
"I don't even know what to think," Salas told HurricaneSports.com after the game. "In that last inning, I was trying to keep my adrenaline down. The fans were getting up, and I couldn't believe it. It's a dream come true."
Salas's perfect game was the first since Kevin Sheary threw one on March 15, 1987. It was also just the 23rd perfect game in Division I baseball history.
Miami (6-5) bounced back after losing two of three to No. 2 Florida State in Tallahassee over the weekend. The Hurricanes knocked Villanova pitching around for 12 hits and scored in every inning after putting up zero runs in the first.
"That's the only reason I showed up today - to get our team back on track," Salas said. "I didn't care how it happened or what the score was, we really needed to win. I think it all came together tonight. We played great defense, we hit the ball, and we got a little luck with pitching."
Head coach Jim Morris couldn't help but use the word perfect after the game either.
"He's our captain, one of our hardest workers and a leader by example," Morris told HurricaneSports.com. "He's a pre-law student. He's everything. He is a perfect student-athlete."
While Salas couldn't be hit the Hurricanes couldn't stop hitting. Or scoring for that matter.
Miami took a 4-0 lead in the third inning on Willie Abreu's two-RBI single and never looked back. The offense blew the doors open in the sixth with five runs that included Brad Fieger's first home run of the season, one of his two hits for the game.
David Thompson drove in two more runs with a double to left field in the sixth and Miami led 13-0 by the end of the inning. Freshman Zach Collins added three more runs with a double in the seventh as the Hurricanes increased their lead to 16-0.
Miami will face Villanova again tomorrow night at 6 PM before it opens ACC play against Boston College on Friday.

No one should be surprised by this, particularly since Wells Fargo is the favored financial vehicle for America's top crony capitalist – Warren "I'm just like you because I drink cherry coke and eat hamburgers" Buffett. The person in question in the latest payoff revolving door move is Bob Ryan who is currently a senior advisor to Shaun Donovan, the secretary for Housing and Urban Development. From the Wall Street Journal:
Mr. Ryan is currently a senior advisor to Shaun Donovan, the secretary for Housing and Urban Development. He joined HUD in 2009 as the first ever chief risk officer at the Federal Housing Administration and served briefly last year as the agency's acting FHA commissioner. He previously spent 26 years at Freddie Mac.
Mr. Donovan called Mr. Ryan "a key source of advice and reason for the last three years at HUD," in a statement. "We will miss his expertise, wisdom, and candor," he said.
Mr. Ryan played a key role shepherding the $25 billion mortgage-foreclosure settlement between five of the nation's largest lenders, including Wells Fargo, and 49 state attorneys general and federal regulators this past March.
Mr. Ryan will become a senior vice president within the capital markets group at Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, where he will coordinate strategy with industry trade groups and consult with policy makers on a range of housing-finance issues.
Did you notice he was complimented on his great job at the FHA? You know the same entity that went bankrupt under his watch! The revolving door in the sky keeps on turning, as we see yet more proof that the more you screw up in America, the more you are rewarded.

You'd think MetroPCS would have too much on its plate these days to think about device launches, but the prepaid carrier seems to live in the moment instead of just focusing on the soon to be sealed T-Mobile merger.
And the moment brings us probably one of Metro's best smartphones ever – the Huawei Premia 4G. This is lightyears behind high-end Android devices, but it has an unbelievably low price tag for what it has to offer ($149 plus tax without any carrier agreement).
Aside from 4G LTE speeds, the Premia has a bunch of other features that place it well inside the mid-range niche instead of the low-end sector that price could imply. There's a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor (whaaaat?!?), a 4-inch 800 x 480 pix res touchscreen with Gorilla Glass (nice!) and 1 GB of RAM.
The 5 MP rear-facing camera is slightly less impressive, but still above par, while the 2 GB of on-board storage and pretty measly 1,650 mAh battery sound like the only real downsides of the Premia. Oh, and the on-board Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, which is now two generations behind the times. But hey, that's not really a deal-breaker, is it?

Sweater Dress Season is in full swing, and we're already getting bored with our collection from last year. We're getting ready to add this Jack by BB Dakota Marisa Sweater Dress ($64) to our wardrobe because we love the wide stripes and bold colors. The easiest thing would be be to wear it with leggings and comfy flats, but we'd love to see it toughened up a bit with a leather vest and/or combat boots.

The Washington State Child and Youth Open Water Drowning Prevention Policy Task Force, Washington State Drowning Prevention Network and child injury and water safety experts identified short-term and long-term policy strategies to reduce open water drowning in Washington state. Read the following files to learn more about Washington state's drowning prevention policy strategies and to find out how you can be involved.
To prevent open water drowning, the Washington State Department of Health, Seattle Children's Hospital and Safe Kids Washington developed and piloted an open water swim area safety checklist and community water recreation safety checklist. The checklists are designed to help individuals, organizations and communities identify gaps in water safety and policy and program changes to fix the gaps.
Alcohol use is the leading factor in boating fatalities. In 2010, alcohol was a contributing factor in almost 45% of all U.S. boating operation-related fatalities, according to the United States Coast Guard. Learn more about local and national BUI policies and policy initiatives:
PFDs, or life jackets, protect boaters. Boaters sometimes find themselves in unexpected situations, such as being tossed into freezing water or thrown into the water after a collision. However, most boating-related drowning victims do not wear life jackets. In 2009, according to the United States Coast Guard, at least 90% of boating-relating drowning victims were not wearing a life jacket. Currently, Washington state requires children up to age 12 to wear life jackets on boats longer than 19 feet while the boat is underway. Learn more about local, national and international life jacket policies and policy initiatives:
Most drownings among children ages 1 to 4 occur in residential swimming pools. According to the Centers for Disease Control, most children were last seen at home, had been out of sight for less than five minutes and were in the care of one or more caregivers at the time.

@ DMackey ... I can identify with you completely ... I can pick for hours on end by myself with nobody listening.
I just want to tell all of the members of FPP that I appreciate each one of you.
Playing music is like therapy for me, it's the one time during the week that I can let go of stressful things and just have fun with friends. I hope all of you are as fortunate.

Miami Dolphins fans: How will the lockout affect your fandom?
So as of yesterday the NFL lockout is back on indefinitely, which was really the case anyway. Even before yesterday. Only difference is that the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis made it official.
The court granted the NFL's motion for a permanent stay, which will keep the lockout in place at least until June 3. That's when the court will begin hearing the NFL's argument against U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson's earlier ruling that the league end the lockout and get back to business.
It's likely, though, that the lockout will stretch on well past June 3.
Could be days. Might be weeks. If it goes on months after, the lockout would be encroaching – to borrow a term associated with the league – on time normally reserved for the NFL's preseason. The longer it drags, of course, the more likely it becomes that we might actually lose regular season games amid this whole mess. There doesn't seem to a be a strong indication that's a realistic possibility – losing games – but still you have to wonder.
Which brings me to what I'm wondering about now, in light of the latest news – or non-news, given how completely unsurprising this is – that the lockout is back on, indefinitely. At what point does the lockout begin to significantly affect fan interest? And at what point will fans begin to revolt?
Such a revolution wouldn't likely be seen. It might not be heard, either. Sure – some would express their frustrations vocally or take the Internet with ill-spirited rants. We'd hear from those folks. But the revolt I'm talking about would need no words – spoken or written – and yet it'd speak louder than any. The revolt I'm talking about wouldn't take a physical form. It would carry only an attitude – a dangerous attitude for a league that prides itself on being the most popular of any professional sports league in America.
The longer the lockout extends, the greater the threat of apathy becomes. It affected baseball after the 1994 strike and the sport didn't recover until the steroid-fueled home run chase of 1998. The fans came back to baseball after the sport lost a World Series and nearly half of its regular season. But in some ways, they're still coming back. Baseball lost an intangible "something" after the strike. The game's relationship with its fans changed. I was 13-years-old that summer and still remember the disappointment of the lost season. It was the first time sports jaded me. Given the profession I chose, it surely wouldn't be the last.
Still, you have to wonder at what point the NFL lockout has the same kind of effect. There are some out there who have said already that they won't buy tickets. That they won't watch. At this point, those likely represent a small minority. After all, the league is still months away from the start of training camp, let alone the start of the regular season. The only thing we've missed, really, have been free agent signings and various official off-season workouts – rookie mini-camp, for instance.
We already know the lockout will last at least another few weeks. What if it goes another month? Or two? Or three? What if the start of the regular season is postponed by a week or two? Or – the doomsday scenario – what if the regular season is postponed indefinitely, with no clear idea of when the NFL might come back?
What would happen to your loyalties, as a fan?
Would you come back whenever the NFL decided to come back? Or would you hold out, tired after months of following a seemingly endless labor dispute? In the long, long, long-term this dispute – no matter how long it drags – probably isn't all that likely to affect fan support. Eventually, the sport recover from whatever self-inflicted damage it has already imposed, and will impose.
But in the shorter term … that's when empty seats might be more glaring when the league comes back – when people might just find other things to do on Sunday afternoons.

Featured For Sale: Low Mile 1996 Corvette Grand Sport
Some car guys/gals wish to own a collectible car, but desire a more modern ride, improved handling, and better reliability. Let us introduce you to this beautiful 1996 Corvette Grand-Sport currently for sale on eBay Motors:
The "GS" is truly a modern classic car; Released to signal the end of the fourth generation Corvette, this edition pays homage to the original GS from 1963. We happen to love the bright blue color and its black wheels were in fashion years before it caught on for the rest of the car world. Add two red stripes over the front wheel and a broad white stripe down the center, and you have a truly stunning car. With only 1,000 models produced and even fewer (190) Convertibles, this car is truly rare.
Under the hood of this beauty is a tire-burning 5.7L LT4 V8 with 330 horses. This car was pretty fast for it's day and still is by today's standards. This particular GS has super low mileage, around 19,000. While any car of this caliber is more valuable with low numbers on the ODO, it would be hard to resist taking it out on warm Saturdays with the top down. So, will this car make it's way to your garage? If so, let us know! We want to go for a ride.
-Jeff Walker

Fashionistas Love Their Dirty, Greasy Follicles
Today's New York Times reports that one of the fastest rising "beauty trends" among the East Coast elite is not washing one's hair, or, at the very least, washing it infrequently (as was the norm in the earlier part of the 20th century.) Says one Bumble & Bumble stylist: "A lot of cute younger girls want something fun…

Ellen DeGeneres is coming back to primetime! Ellen has been given the green light by NBC to produce a show entitled, "One Big Happy," in which a lesbian woman and a straight man decide to have a baby together. As you can imagine this scenario could cause some complications for the friends, with lots of laughs in- store. No air date has been set for the show as of yet. DeGeneres will work on the show with Liz Feldman, the producer of Two Broke Girls; formerly a writer for The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
The strange thing is that many sources, like Entertainment Wise, are calling the project a "gay interest" show. DeGeneres fought tooth and nail with networks to get her talk show, now in its' eleventh season, to even air. Networks didn't believe that stay at home moms would want to watch a lesbian woman interview celebrities. Fast forward a few years, and you have one of the most successful talk shows on television. Maybe a sitcom featuring a gay main character is just 2014. Has anyone ever heard of Will & Grace? Ellen formerly starred in her own sitcom, The Ellen Show which aired from 1994-1998. Ellen's character was the first in television history to come out as gay. Ellen also came out publicly in 1997 on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Anyone who believes that television shows featuring gay characters are only for the gay community, really aren't living in the present time, where we are all human beings coexisting, working for equality, and hopefully bringing happiness to the world.

What makes it possible for ice skaters to move and glide easily across the ice? Why do they easily spin and jump in the air? It's all about physics.
When a skater moves forward or strokes across the ice, a force is applied against the ice. The ice pushes right back, which propels the skater into a glide, jump, or into another move. Depending on how the particular force is applied creates different skating moves.
Pushing the ice with a blade is resisted by only a slight friction, so gliding is easy and so is jumping and spinning! The general low level of friction of ice makes is possible for a skater to skate across an ice surface and move faster and faster. Also, by applying some force to the blades, friction makes it possible for a skater to stop on the ice.
In addition, the laws of physics also explain why when a figure skater pulls in his or her arms, that a figure skating spin rotates faster and faster. In fact, it would be impossible for an elite skater to do triple jumps without pulling his or her arms in!

Spring/Summer 2016Unconventional monetary policy—characterized by "zero interest rate policy" (ZIRP) and "quantitative easing" (QE), along with macro-prudential regulation—has increased the power of central banks in the United States, Japan, and Europe. In the new issue of Cato Journal, contributors revisit the thinking behind unconventional monetary policy and the "new monetary framework," make the case for transparent monetary rules versus foggy discretion, and point to the distortions generated by ultra-low interest rates and preferential credit allocation.

The Tyranny of Silence
When the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten published the cartoons of the prophet Muhammad in 2005, Denmark found itself at the center of a global battle about the freedom of speech. The paper's culture editor, Flemming Rose, defended the decision to print the 12 drawings, and he quickly came to play a central part in the debate about the limitations to freedom of speech in the 21st century. In The Tyranny of Silence, Flemming Rose provides a personal account of an event that has shaped the debate about what it means to be a citizen in a democracy and how to coexist in a world that is increasingly multicultural, multireligious, and multiethnic.

How can i create a FAQ section that I can use a basic search web part to search through the FAQ and display the most relevant results.
I am new to sharepoint and need some guidance, thanks.
The easiest way to setup a FAQ in SharePoint is to use a custom list. I've written up a guide to doing this on my blog: http://thechriskent.com/2012/03/09/simple-sharepoint-faq-in-5-minutes/
To summarize:
In order to search it, the search box at the top of the view page will default to just searching the list. So as long as a crawl has run, your items should show up. If you'd like to get fancier, you could specify a scope just for that list and add a custom search page.

I have just prayed for you that you will find not only provision beyond what you can even imagine, but that you will find peace and strength that God is with you. Know that you are doing the best that you can, even on those days when you don't feel like you are. It's a hard and noble journey you are on. I have been there myself. Find peace by looking up Bible verses that give you comfort and hold onto them!!! Merry Christmas.
Thank you for praying for me. This came at the right moment in my life. I felt that Christmass will not be good for my granddaughter but your prayer has told me that everything will be ok. Thank you and God is so good.
Where will you be collecting and what are specifications for toys? I reside in Las Vegas NV. Thank You and have a wonderful day!
I brought you up to God sister.
hi :D
Thank you for your prayers. I am glad someone took the time to read my request & actually took time to respond to it. I hope you had a very joyous Thanksgiving & that you will have a Merry Christmas & prosperous New Year.
Jennifer, be encouraged, your faith in Christ will set you free. I also want to encourage you to ask your pastor for a good counselor, sometimes talking to an unbiased follower of Christ can provide incredible healing. You are not alone in this, you are loved and you are incredible in the eyes of God. Praying for healing and strength sister!
God is good and He will provide for that which he knows you need. Keep up the great example of faith to your granddaughter. Praying for you right now, Vicky.
I pray that God hears your prayers and can restore your marriage.
Concerned Mom,
I pray the FAA and your son each receive the grace of God, and the will of God is done.
Christy and your family are in my prayers. May she and your family be led to the close Love of God, the only true redeemer and the One who fills the longing for fulfillment.

Thanks & God bless to SOS radio!
Hi Sister,
I would like to start off by saying hang in there! I know that's easier said than done. I know from experience that holding on can be long and hard, and just when you think you can't hold onto everything you've got, He is there. I don't know all your details, but God does!, and He is with you- ALL!
In times where you have no place to go, you know you can alway's find peace with God. Stick to The word! Stick to God! and we will pull you through! Prayer works, and there are people everywhere praying for you. Be comforted in knowing that no matter the situation God is there.

This breaks my heart. I went through the exact same thing about 4 years ago. I also have 4 children and I know that it was very hard. Through lots of prayer and hard work I actually am having my life changed. I married a great guy a month ago. Life will get better. Keep your faith in God and that he will bring you and your children to a better place in life. My prayers are with you. And on a side note I have become even closer with my children from all of this. Take care.
Pray to God to forgive you. He promises in the bible that you will be forgiven for your sins. There are none (no one) who is without sin. I have also made horrible mistakes but I have asked God to forgive me through prayer and he has. He has given many blessings to my family now. Look up the story of SAUL who later became Paul in the bible. It is a perfect example of someone who had many sins to be forgiven and he was. My prayers are with you.
It might sound silly but I know that Mcdonalds nationwide is always hiring and that they are always very flexible with hours and willing to work around another job. There is also room to
move up quickly for a person who is responsible.
I know that my family and I have been there many times before. We are keeping you in our prayers and we also want to let you know that God has brought us through those times as well through prayers.
I will pray for your safe travel and happy future.
I live in Henderson. It is across the Vegas valley to the southeast of Summerlin. Welcome neighbors! I am from the midwest.....you are going to love winter here!

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -- Gov. Steve Beshear and legislative leaders could set a date for a special session within the next week to resolve the lingering issue of redistricting.
Beshear had what he described as "a very productive meeting" Monday afternoon with Republican Senate President Robert Stivers and Democratic House Speaker Greg Stumbo and said they're now working on a date for calling lawmakers back to Frankfort.
Each decade, lawmakers are required to draw new legislative district boundaries to account for population changes recorded by the U.S. Census Bureau. Kentucky had major population shifts between 2000 and 2010, requiring changes in boundary lines to comply with the federal and state "one person, one vote" mandate.
Two federal lawsuits have been filed in recent weeks to speed up the process in Kentucky.

The Framingham, Mass. Planning Board approved new landscape design guidelines at a July 7, 2011meeting, but left open a provision for extensive edits to the 13-page document.
''Guidelines,'' while a little stronger than ''suggestions,'' certainly seems to indicate a fair amount of wiggle room.
One area of contention was the subsection "Discouraged trees and plants," which included (with certain exceptions noted in the appendix) honey locusts, juniper species, Zelkova species and American arborvitae (conifer evergreen native to Minnesota), plus nut and sap producing trees in high traffic areas.
Discouraging entire species of trees, i.e., junipers and nut bearing tress like oaks, was challenged by a board member who averred some oak species should be preferred street trees.
One board member said oak trees were discouraged because they ''bring in squirrels,'' and their acorns can be slipping hazards.
At least one board member called for removing the entire section on prohibited and restricted plantings from the guidelines.
The FraminghamPatch quoted Town Planner Jay Grande: "Again, these are guidelines. If you want to put an oak tree as a street tree and you can justify it to the board, then you can use it." Grande noted the board is free to amend the guidelines.

Gateshead 2-2 Macclesfield Town
Gateshead recorded their third consecutive draw to remain mid-table in the Blue Square Bet Premier.
The Tynesiders led by two goals with 20 minutes left but were pegged back by visitors Macclesfield Town.
Gateshead are now without a win in six games and Macclesfield five after the two sides played out an entertaining game on a superb surface.
The Heed handed a first start to Lance McGlen at right back and the former Carlisle United youngster gave an assured performance.
The game got off to a slow start, the first effort on goal coming after 20 minutes when Matthew Barnes-Homer's angled shot was held at the near post by Adam Bartlett.
Yemi Odubade was then in on goal from Bartlett's long punt but shot wide with only Lance Cronin to beat.
Only a great challenge inside the box from James Curtis prevented a real opportunity for the Silkmen after Barnes-Homer had beaten Chris Bush in the air.
Josh Gillies went between two defenders on the left side of the box but his shot towards the far corner was held at full stretch by Cronin.
A great move then broke the deadlock eight minutes from the interval.
Curtis dinked a good ball from halfway down the right channel where Odubade cushioned a first time pass into the path of Jamie Chandler.
The acting captain drove into the right side of the penalty area where he drove a low shot just inside the far post for a fine finish.
The first half had been a tight affair and it was Macclesfield who started the second on the front foot.
John Paul Kissock's curler was clawed away one handed by Bartlett under his bar as the visitors looked threatening.
Odubade then set up James Brown, making his home debut, but the former Hartlepool striker's effort was blocked at the expense of a corner.
Carl Magnay's header from Gillies' cross was tipped over by Cronin who then saved from Gillies.
The Heed had the rare luxury of a two goal cushion when Curtis bundled a Gillies left side corner into the net just past the hour.
That should have been that but Macclesfield were soon back in it with a superb overhead kick from Barnes-Homer into the top corner following a Ryan Jackson cross from the right.
The Silkmen were moving the ball around with intent and Bartlett had to dive to his right to keep out a low Kissock drive.
The Heed keeper, however, allowed another Kissock shot to go underneath him and past the post for a corner which proved pivotal.
The miscued flag kick was bundled in from close range by Silkmen sub. Chris Holroyd at the near post for the scruffiest of equalisers six minutes from time.
Both sides were unsuccessful in their attempt to find a winner as their winless run continued.
Gateshead: Bartlett, McGlen, Bush, Chandler, Curtis, Magnay, Gillies (Cummins 86), Turnbull, Brown (Fisher 75), Odubade (Marwood 80), Donaldson
Subs (not used): Nixon (gk), Wilson
Goals: Gillies (37), Curtis (63)

Twitter is one of the more powerful traffic generation tools in your Inbound Marketing arsenal. Recent estimates suggest that the number of active Twitter accounts is well over 140 million. As a result, Twitter can be an extremely powerful tool that can enable you to gain exposure for yourself, your brand, or your message.
If you are wondering how to get more Twitter followers, you are not alone. By using the following 4 tips, you are sure to see an increase in your followers.
1. Design a Compelling Profile for Your Twitter Account
One of the most important things to do if you wish to increase your number of followers is to design the best possible profile that really makes you stand out. Posting an actual picture of yourself (instead of your logo) is a very good idea. You only have 160 characters to express who you are, what you Tweet about, and why people should follow you. The more compelling and interesting you make it, the better.
2. Tweet about Trending Topics and Use #Hashtags
Trending topics on Twitter are those topics that the largest amount of Twitter users are searching for and tweeting about. By inserting your voice into the conversation, you increase the possibility that your profile will come up on a related search. One great way to select trending topics to tweet about is to find a Twitter user with a large number of followers, and see what trends they are tweeting about, and what types of messages they are retweeting. For business owners, it is important to ensure that you are tweeting about trending topics in your specific niche.
If you're looking for some great ideas on what to tweet about, check out our free eBook with 33 Tweet Ideas!
3. Create a Contest or Offer a Discount
Creating a contest is a fun way to attract more followers. For example, you can pick a popular tech gadget, and state you will hold a lottery once your number of Twitter followers reaches a certain number. If you use Twitter for your business, consider offering a small discount or a freebie to your Twitter followers as an incentive to follow your account.
4. Follow Twitter Users that You Wish to Follow You and Thank Users for the Follow
This may seem fairly obvious, but it is worth mentioning. Believe it or not, many Twitter users automatically follow anyone who follows them. Even if they do not have software or an app that does it for them, a lot of people will do so manually. Once someone has followed you, be sure to send them a message thanking them for following you. This will increase your exposure level, as their entire list of followers will be able to see your thank you tweet.
These are just 4 ways that you can increase the number of people who follow you on Twitter. If you are ready to begin increasing your amount of followers, create a goal for yourself, and once you have reached the goal, raise the bar. With 140 million active users, it is realistic to dream big! Just take it one day at a time, and be sure to tweet your best, and you are sure to succeed. Good luck!

Shares of search giant Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) have cooled their jets in recent months after their 2012-13 run-up, as concerns that the explosion of mobile ads Google's experienced of late will continue to dampen its profits in the years to come.
To be fair, this issue isn't unique unto Google. We've seen the same dynamic largely play out with Google's Chinese equivalent, Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU), which has been an occasional drag on Baidu's shares as well. And with Google set to report earnings Thursday after the bell, investors everywhere will have yet another opportunity to see just how badly mobile has weighed on Google's financial performance of late.
Google earnings: What investors should expect
Analysts are calling for a bit of a reversal of fortunes for Google in its upcoming report, a real surprise, since Google's revenue growth has handily outpaced its profit growth in the past several years, as the trend underpinning Google's profit margin issues has proved harder to shake than many realized.
Still, both Google and Baidu enjoy some of the most enviable economics in all of technology, even as they acclimate to their mobile futures. In the following video, tech and telecom specialist Andrew Tonner discusses Google's upcoming earnings in greater detail and makes his case for investors to stick with the likes of Google and Baidu as fantastic long-term growth opportunities for the decade ahead.
Leaked: Apple's next smart device (warning, it may shock you)
Apple recently recruited a secret-development "dream team" to guarantee its newest smart device was kept hidden from the public for as long as possible. But the secret is out, and some early viewers are claiming its everyday impact could trump the iPod, iPhone, and the iPad. In fact, ABI Research predicts 485 million of this type of device will be sold per year. But one small company makes Apple's gadget possible. And its stock price has nearly unlimited room to run for early-in-the-know investors. To be one of them, and see Apple's newest smart gizmo, just click here!

It's Nelly Gnu's turn for her moment in the sun with "Nelly Gnu and Daddy Too" by Anna Dewdney. Fans of the "Llama Llama" series are very familiar with Nelly Gnu, Llama Llama's best friend.
Llama Llama lives with his mother, and Dewdney wanted to celebrate the father-daughter bond, so she decided to give Nelly Gnu her very own book. And "Nelly Gnu and Daddy Too" certainly ccelebrates a father who doesn't mind playing with his daughter and doing activities like building a play house together.
When they go to the hardware store for paint, Nelly can't find her father for one scary moment. But Daddy is there and everything is fine. They decorate their play house, Daddy cooks dinner, and they read books together.
The moral of the story? Together, there's nothing that the two of them can't do. And the love that Daddy has for his daughter shines through every page.
This could be a wonderful book for a new father, or just a book that dad might really like reading to his daughter. But be prepared: she might just ask him for a play house of her own!

Olivia's Fundraising Foray For Dougie Mac
The daughter of a lady cared for by the Douglas Macmillan Hospice, is holding a fundraising day in her memory.
Jane Roden was cared for at the Hospice, before passing away two years ago.
Now her daughter Olivia, aged 15, is hosting a fundraiser at Mount Pleasant Farm, Werrington on Sunday August 26th between 12pm and 4pm, to thank the Dougie Mac for the care she received.
Activities on the day include a bouncing castle, face painting, and a barbeque. The entry fee will be £1, with children under 12 years of age free.
The day before, Olivia is also having a 'sweet sixteen' Only Way Is Essex themed birthday party, with donations going to the Hospice.
She is no stranger to fundraising, having raised £500 by taking part in the Dougie Mac's Midnight to Sunrise Walk in June.
Although Olivia has set no targets for the day itself, she is hoping the local community will support her venture.
"We had already planned an 'Essex' themed party for my birthday, and thought we would make the most of it to honour my mum," Olivia said.
"I've done other fundraising events like the Midnight to Sunrise Walk, but the whole family thought it would be a great way of honouring my mum's memory and thanking Dougie Mac for the care she received, by organising our own fundraising event.
"My family and friends have been extremely supportive in helping me plan the day, and we are just hoping for a good turnout on the day."
Anyone who requires any more information on the fundraising day can contact Olivia on 07769157170.

Oregon Steps Up Moose Monitoring
January 29, 2008.
From the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:
Wildlife biologists collared four moose in the northern Blue Mountains of Wallowa County the week of January 14, marking the first collaring of the animals in Oregon and an increased effort to trace moose activity in the state.
The radio and GPS collars will help biologists better understand seasonal movements, habitat use, and reproductive rates of the state's small but growing moose population, which is conservatively estimated to number 35.
The four moose collared were cows; high winds prevented biologists from also collaring an adult male. The team will try again later in the winter, in time to track a bull's movement during the September breeding season, when they tend to move great distances.
"It's exciting to have these majestic newcomers in Oregon, and I believe our moose numbers will only grow," said Pat Matthews ODFW assistant district wildlife biologist. "There is a sizeable amount of vacant habitat for them to pioneer. I think we could realistically see a population of 500-700 moose in Oregon in the future."
Two of the collars used were GPS satellite collars that emit several readings a day to indicate their location. The other two were more conventional radio collars which emit a particular radio frequency that is located by biologists with a receiver. Biologists will use these collars to get a sense of the moose's range and location but will also be observing the animals up close to keep an eye on their condition.
Before being collared, the moose were captured with a helicopter and net gun operated by Leading Edge Aviation of Clarkston, Wash. Funding for the collars and project was provided by the Umatilla National Forest, Oregon Wildlife Heritage Foundation; Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation; Blue Mountain Habitat Restoration Council; and the Josephine, Yamhill, Capitol, Lincoln, Pioneer, Columbia, Rogue, Baker, and Union Chapters of Oregon Hunters Association.
While moose may have occurred in Oregon in the past, there are no references to them being found here in modern times. The moose established in northeastern Oregon today are naturally dispersing into the state from adjacent Washington and Idaho. In 1922, five moose were brought to western Oregon from Alaska. These animals were hand-raised and soon became a problem to towns and farms, so the transplant failed.
"The first sighting of a moose that we know about was in the 1960s along the Snake River," noted Vic Coggins, ODFW district wildlife biologist. "Individual moose have been observed sporadically in northeastern Oregon over the past 40 years."
As North America's largest ungulates, the moose's size and the male's uniquely-shaped antlers give it much of its mystique. Moose prefer the habitat of burned and logged areas with an abundance of willow and other deciduous growth. Temperature is probably the limiting factor in their expansion.
As the moose population continues to grow, limited hunting opportunities could occur in northeastern Oregon. Moose tend to be solitary creatures that use thick cover, making viewing them a challenge. Sightings most often occur in the Umatilla National Forest north of Elgin off Forest Road 62 and on Hwy 204 between Elgin and Tollgate.
Because of their low numbers, it is very important to protect Oregon moose. Though moose are generally larger, they can be mistaken for elk, so hunters in the area need to take extra care to identify their target before shooting. Hunters or others that encounter moose should report sightings to a local Fish and Wildlife office so the department can continue to understand the animal's range in Oregon.

In the midst of attempting to prove that for a commutative ring $A$ with identity, and an ideal $I$ of $A$, $I = rad(I)$, where $rad(I) = \{x: x^m \epsilon I, m >0\}$, implies that $I$ is an intersection of prime ideals, I've run into a little bit of confusion.
An answer to another question on this site, this one to be exact, indicates a strategy that I am attempting to use. I know that if x is an element of $A$ \ $I$, then so too is $x^m$ for any positive integer $m$. I use this fact to consider a subset $X = {x^m : m > 0}$, which is closed under multiplication, and use Zorn's lemma to find an ideal of $A$ containing $I$ maximal with respect to the constraint that said ideal, $J$, is disjoint from X.
I want to prove $J$ is prime by contradiction. I suppose that $J$ were not prime; this also means that $J$ is not maximal in $A$. Then there would exist two elements, $f$ and $g$, of $A$ so that $fg$ is in $J$, but neither $f$ nor $g$ is in $J$. Following the prompting of the aforementioned answer, I know that $J + $<$a$> and $J + $<$b$> would be ideals strictly containing $J$, and since J is the maximal ideal disjoint from $X$, both $J + $<$a$> and $J + $<$b$> contain at least some elements of $X$ (I am tempted to say all of them, but I'm not entirely sure that's true, in case for example <$a$> started containing powers of $x$ at $x^2$, in which case it isn't necessarily true that <$a$> contains x itself), and so both <$a$> and <$b$> must themselves contain elements of $X$.
And this is where I am stuck. I feel like there is something I should know about multiplicative subsets of rings that would help me arrive at the desired contradiction, but I can't remember what it might be.

The Golden Globes were this past Sunday. Now that they're over, The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has permission to announce their nominations.
Back in 1999, I scored a major accomplishment. I actually saw every nominated film in the Best Picture category, so I was able to watch the telecast with an informed opinion. This feat has not been accomplished by me since. When they extended the category from 5 to 10 films in 2009, I just gave up on the pursuit. Let's see how well I do this year.
In the category of Best Picture, the nominees are:
American Hustle - I know at least two people who have been in David O. Russell films. Neither of them were in this one. Haven't seen it. I'll probably get around to it.
Captain Phillips - Didn't see it. I saw Saving Mr. Banks. Tom Hanks is always good... except for that one episode of "Happy Days" where he tried to beat up the Fonz.
Dallas Buyers Club - I found this slow and the characters were not compelling. The only other people in the theater walked out... Wait! I'm thinking of Mud (the OTHER Mathew McConaughey movie). Didn't see it.
Gravity- I TOTALLY SAW THIS ONE! In 3-D! Yeah! Space!
If you didn't see it, but would like to simulate the experience, do the following. 1. Lock yourself in a dark closet. 2. Breath heavily for two hours. 3. Repeat.
Her- I like all of Spike Jonze's movies, so I'll probably like this one when I finally see it. No, I don't think I would fall in love with Siri if "she" sounded like Scarlett Johanson.
Nebraska- Didn't see it.
Philomena- I don't know anyone who saw this. I think the Academy is legally obligated to nominate anything with Judi Dench until she retires... unless it's a James Bond movie... but even Skyfall won for music.
12 Years a Slave- Didn't see it... but I did see The Retrieval. If only that film had distribution, I'm sure it would be on this list right now. If there's a film festival in your area, it will either be there soon or it was already there last year. Follow it on IMDb and see it if you can.
The Wolf of Wall Street - Didn't see it; but I hear this film comes with a second Oscar nomination for Jonah Hill. I notice this is where the generational divide happens. Older folks are saying, "Really? The kid from Superbad who's not Michael Cera?" while the kids are saying, "Cool! Superbad's getting Oscars!" I'm not sure if this means they think the 2007 film is somehow still eligible for Oscars, or if they think Jonah Hill's name is actually "Superbad."
So, if the Academy Awards were based entirely on which ones I've actually seen (which they aren't), then it would be a tie between Gravity and a massive write-in for The Retrieval.
I refuse to make any actual predictions. That can only lead to embarrassment... like in 1999 when someone predicted Phantom Menace would sweep every category. This prediction was, of course, made two days before the film's release. It wasn't made by me... but it was still embarrassing.
Ellen DeGeneres will host the ceremony on ABC on March 2, 2014.
