Ah, the calm before the storm… At least I hope there will be a storm. My team has just release a beta and I am trying to be patient as I wait for *real* user feedback. Let me step back a second and allow myself to introduce… myself. (1: I like movie quotes.) My name is Travis Bright and I'm the Program Manager for the Java Language Conversion Assistant (JLCA). Don't know what the JLCA is? The short version: JLCA converts Java-language source code into Visual C#; making it easier for a developer to move to the .NET platform. If you are interested I have links at the bottom to a couple of press announcements that also include instructions on joining the beta.
Ok, back to the storm which sounded a lot more interesting before I had you read the condensed version of the professional life of a guy you have never met (me). Any release is wonderful, a milestone to smile-in-passing and know that all of the hard work was worth it. But beta is even more fun. JLCA doesn't run an alpha program, so beta is the first real measure of a version. Sure, we have some of our partner companies try it out and give us their feedback (which is pure gold in my world) but pre-beta JLCA bits get to less than 20 companies. The first week, our beta touched an order of magnitude more customers. Which, living for customer feedback, is guaranteed to keep a smile on my face. As the bugs come in (hopefully this is where the storm starts) I get a couple of lines on what my customers think about the tool. Not to mention the improvement to the overall product. I can't lose. Even duplicate bugs give me a great idea of the areas customers are exploring. One thing is sure: language converters are evolutionary products. And I don't mean that they fundamentally change the world. I mean they take revision after revision to come to fruition. This is made even more challenging by the fact that neither the Java-language nor Visual C# (nor underlying .NET framework) is static. And trying to keep a bridge suspended between two moving points insures my job is never boring!
Why a new BLOG? Everyone has to have one right? No, actually. I have seen a few lonely comments about the JLCA and even more questions about migrating JSP, EJBs, … to .NET and wanted to create a compiling area for all of these. I fancy myself a bit of a developer and routinely write code to migrate. This gives me a great feeling of understanding. I _think_ that I know the normal issues and problems with running migrations, but the only way to be sure is to have real customers tell me. So, I will try to post interesting information on interoperability (yes I like when everyone can play together*), conversion, helpful (hopefully) tips from my recent migrations, and whatever else had caught my interest. Thanks for reading my FIRST POST!
*No, I do not think myself the guru of interop. that Simon G. is, but it is a wonderful model that actually works in practice!
Quick note: I will slip and say "my team", "my customers", or "my product". I think that falls into the _motherly_ aspect of being a PM. I feel that I have responsibility over every part of the JLCA which gives me an improper since of ownership. If anything, the MS JLCA owners are my wonderful Dev and QA leads. Please take possessives with a grain of salt.

The decline.
In todays schooling. Much of the curriculum is based off of memorization, following instructions and test taking. Notice how in class children must sit down, not speak unless called upon, never prove the teacher is incorrect and memorize useless info that must be regurgitated on a quiz or a test. And when a test is taken 90% of the time the test or quiz is multiple choice. No critical thinking skills necessary. Just read, remember and choose the right answer.
Examples :Modern 8th grade Biology Examination 2009 Modern 8th grade English Examination 2009
Notice how much of the test is multiple choice. Looking at something on the page and just picking out facts and filling in the answer that matches what is shown. Exactly where is the critical thinking? Where is the obtaining of knowledge? What impact will this have on students later on in life? Nothing!
Now take a brief look at a test or examination from roughly one century ago. Back then an eighth grader not only had to have more knowledge. But they also had to explain what their answers meant. Had to come up with the answers themselves, no multiple choice and had to basic knowledge of the world around them. And much of this knowledge appears to be more connected with everyday reality unlike today's testing. Also notice that A. Much of the information is on the level of a college test today and B. More thought has to be put into the responses than in today's tests if you compare and contrast.
Examples : History maps the decline. Ten claims about higher education. More info
1895 8th grade Examination 1912 8th grade examination 1895 exam revisited
Why the decline?
As stated in 3A-1 children learn differently. But when we are forced into school. We are forced to learn exactly the way the teacher wants and are not allowed to learn any other way. It's a fact that children have different learning styles, learn at different paces and learn from each other as much as they do from the teacher. Mixed age learning is superior to age segregation.
The teacher has the power to punish, humiliate and in some areas beat a child who goes against their idea of what is right and wrong. Even if the teacher is proven to be incorrect. As far as they're concerned. Their word is the law of the classroom. Some adults teachers, parents, faculty etc. even believe it's okay to drug a child who isn't "getting along" in class.
Increasingly modern education seems to be geared politically, emotionally and financially towards girls. Gym is being taken away from some schools, recess almost doesn't exist anymore, shop class doesn't exist anymore, math and science classes have been shown to be getting less funding and attention than language and art classes.
So much of today's learning is not learning it's simply the robotic process of test taking. They're not being examined to see if they learned something. They're just being made to regurgitate info onto a multiple choice page and being passed along if they do a good job. This also has a lot to do with how some teachers get paid. :-(
Too much technology is being applied to children to learn when it's never been proven to improve their ability to learn. In a "hostile environment of bullying, test taking, authoritarian rule, punishment and drugging". Exactly how does a laptop make any difference?
The results of disrespecting different learning types, forcing children to learn all the same way, being under a violent authoritarian, the disparity between how boys and girls are educated, gearing everyone towards test taking and wasting funds on technology in this hostile environment Is the organic machine. The bio android. The lifeless, soulless, brainless being who has literally had creativity smashed out of them.
And we wonder why many young people are finding it difficult to land jobs or create something of value for themselves in this dinosaur economy.

Cheap Samsung C414 clamshell featurephone now available at Videotron in Canada
After having been launched by Mobilicity last month, the affordable Samsung C414 has made it to Videotron as well. This is dubbed the C414V, whereas Mobilicity's SKU is C414Y – that last letter seems to indicate the carrier.
The device appears to be the same if you disregard the branding though. This is no smartphone, and even for a featurephone it's really nothing to write home about in this day and age. Yet for some, it may be a perfect phone – because that's what this is: a phone first.
Talking and (some) texting seem to be the main focus points for this handset. Videotron is asking $149.95 for it without any contract, or you could get it for just $49.95 on what the carrier calls "reduced price".
The Samsung C414V has a 2.2-inch internal screen, a 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth support, music and video player, and a microSD card slot that can take cards up to 16 GB in size.
To get yours, just head on over to Videotron here.

Black Team Clinches Series with Game 4 Win
Gutierrez homered to give the Black Team a two-run lead in the eighth inning
Oct. 27, 2013
LUBBOCK, Texas - Five players had at least one hit and four players tallied at least one RBI for the Black Team in Saturday's game four series-clinching victory, 5-4, in the annual Texas Tech baseball Red & Black Series at Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park.
The victory gives the Black Team the series title while game five will be played on Sunday at 2 p.m. for the final day of team practice for the Red Raiders in their fall campaign.
Sophomore right-handed pitcher Brock Hunt (1-0) picked up the win in relief throwing 1.1 scoreless innings with two strikeouts. Red Team starting pitcher Matt Withrow (0-1) suffered the loss allowing three runs (2 ER) on three hits with two strikeouts and two walks.
Junior reliever Corey Taylor picked up the save pitching the final two innings allowing just one run with a strikeout and a walk.
The Black Team tallied three runs - two earned - in the second inning with a pair of RBI base hits and a run-scoring fielder's choice.
Left fielder Anthony Lyons started the inning with a bunt base hit and scored a batter later on junior catcher Hunter Redman's RBI triple to tie the game, 1-1.
Red Team catcher Mason Randolph scored the game's first run in the bottom of the first inning with an RBI double to right field scoring leadoff hitter and shortstop Tim Proudfoot (2-for-4).
Later in the second, freshman right fielder Stephen Smith drove in Redman with an RBI single and later scored on sophomore third baseman Alec Humphreys' RBI fielder's choice.
Black Team starting pitcher Cameron Smith took a no decision despite pitching 3.2 innings allowing just one run on one hit with two strikeouts and four walks allowed.
The Black Team took a 4-1 lead in the top of the seventh on center fielder Heath Herrington's RBI single, which scored Stephen Smith who walked earlier in the inning. Smith went 1-for-3 while Herrington went 1-for-2.
Sophomore first baseman Eric Gutierrez put the finishing touches on the series-clinching win for the Black Team with a towering solo home run in the top of the eighth inning.
Red Team second baseman Bryant Burleson scored a pair of runs for the Red squad in the seventh with a two-run RBI single to left field scoring both Zach Davis (walked) and Proudfoot (singled).
Randolph went 2-for-5 for the Red Team joining Proudfoot with multiple hits.
The Red & Black Series will come to a close on Sunday, Oct. 27 with a first pitch scheduled for 2 p.m. for the fifth and final game of the series. The game will be played at Dan Law Field at Rip Griffin Park and admission is free.

"Here Bossie; here Bossie!" is how I remember cows being called home when I was a kid. (I always thought "Bossie" was a "typical" name for cows, like "Fido" for dogs.)
Today I volunteer on a ranch and my rancher calls, "Come on, cows; come on cows!" in a very deep almost mooing voice. I myself have taken to calling "Dinnertime, din-din-dinnertime!" in a sing-song voice a bit higher because my high voice carries much better than my low voice. Once the herd realized I too had food, they had no problem responding to my call variation.
This got me to thinking about how cows communicate with their single-word vocabulary: moo. I suspect moo can speak volumes, however, as it varies in pitch, frequency, and duration. A cow will call to find the herd, to alert the herd of food or to alert the herd of danger. A cow will call to her calf or when looking for a mate. A bull will also call when looking for a mate, impressing her with his mastery of moo. If you give it much observation, the versatility of moo is amazing.
Another attraction to sound cows seem to have is to music. Apparently their attraction to jazz music has been documented on an Animal Planet video and the experiment has been repeated by others (as in this video). At first I again thought it was the deepness, or imitation of the moo (as with my rancher's call), until my daughter started playing country music in the barn on her ipod and her cow wandered over immediately. The heifer stood and stared at the box from which the sound originated spellbound, similar to the cow in this video with the sax. Perhaps music is a universal language among not only different people groups but among different species as well.

Diary of a First Year Teacher
Joseph Herr is a kindergarten teacher at Claremont Elementary School in Arlington, Virginia. He has a B.A. in history from the University of Rochester, and an Ed.M. in elementary education from Nazareth College.
Teaching and entertaining have a lot in common. Both of these professions require an attentive and happy audience. If you fail to please your audience, then you might get tomatoes thrown at you, just like that famous Muppet character, Fozzie Bear. But, hey! If Fozzie Bear can keep on going, so can you, first year teacher!
A teacher must be a good entertainer to be sure that the "audience," the students, experience the joy of learning and become life-long learners. Learning must be fun and enjoyable for everyone. Similar to actors and actresses, teachers must be creative, flexible, and proficient in using a variety of props to get their message across. These "props" might include read aloud books, visual aids, auditory tools, intrapersonal journals, musical instruments, kinesthetic paraphernalia, and interpersonal activities. The challenge is to find a balance, but it can be done.
It is important to create an environment in which students feel safe. Students work better and achieve more when they know that the teacher will not criticize them for every mistake that is made. We all make mistakes, as first year teachers know painfully well. Students need to see that teachers make mistakes, too, and that these mistakes are just little bumps on the path to learning and growing.
Patience and caring are two traits every teacher and parent must have. Children will do things that will test your patience every day. However, patience is required in order to have a good working relationship with your students. Children can grasp when an adult truly cares about them. If your students feel nurtured by you, they will be willing to take risks and be challenged.
In the entertainment industry, there are Oscars and Emmys to commend the ultimate performances of actors and actresses. There are very few awards in teaching, but you strive for the ultimate reward, which is being a part of the growth in your students as learners.
First Year Teacher was a pilot project of Reading Rockets, which is service of WETA, Washington D.C.'s flagship public television station. Funding for First Year Teacher was provided by the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Special Education Programs; The Morris & Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation; and The Overbrook Foundation.

Chester City 2-1 Gateshead
The poison chalice that has become a central defensive birth at Gateshead took another turn for the worse at the Deva Stadium last night.
Long serving centre back James Curtis incredibly became the third Gateshead central defender to be sent off in the last five games.
Curtis saw red after just 19 minutes following a clash with Chester City striker Gregg Blundell with the double whammy completed when the former Darlington player drove home the resultant penalty.
Gateshead had only one player sent off, the on loan Craig Nelthorpe, in the whole of last season and two of the current crop of red cards have been for a professional foul.
The curse of the central defender has also extended to injury where both Carl Jones and Chris Swailes have spent lengthy periods on the sidelines this season.
The dependable Curtis will now sit out Saturday's trip to Kidderminster Harriers, but will be back for the visit of Rushden & Diamonds on Tuesday.
Despite playing three quarters of the game with ten men Gateshead were desperately unlucky not to take something out of the game in front of the lowest league crowd at the Deva Stadium for eight years, 994.
An inability to keep 11 players on the pitch however is a self inflicted handicap the Tynesiders can ill afford in the rarefied atmosphere of the Blue Square Premier.
"If we had kept 11 players on the field I have no doubt we would have won the game as Chester were poor and we dominated the game with ten men," said assistant manager Jeff Wrightson.
"Crucial decisions went against us at important times but their first goal came from a clearance inside their own box which is inexcusable.
"After that we were the better side. The players worked their socks off with ten men and Chester weren't a threat, which makes the defeat hard to take.
"Even after they had pinched a second goal Michael Mackay had two great chances, including a one-on-one, but couldn't find the net."
Wrightson, a distinguished centre half for Gateshead during the club's previous spell in the Conference, cannot understand how three central defenders can be sent off inside three weeks.
"Two of them have been for professional fouls," he said "it is poor defending, either individually or collectively, with players ball watching - and it has to stop."
Curtis had a header cleared off the line by Michael Lea before Blundell collapsed under a challenge from the giant defender midway through the first half.
Blundell's spot kick put City in front but it was Gateshead who played the better football with John Danby saving from Mackay and then getting down low to deny Armand One.
Nick Chadwick headed a Neil Ashton corner over the bar at the other end while the hard working Gate tested Danby before the interval.
Chester's only shot on target in the first period was the penalty and it took only five minutes of the second half for ten man Gateshead to level.
Gate swung in a cross that evaded Lea and Mackay made no mistake with a low shot into the bottom corner.
The Tynesiders gave as good as they got despite their numerical disadvantage but suffered a 76th minute sickener as Chester confirmed only their third home win in 2009.
Ashton was the provider with a cross that saw striker Chadwick loop a header over Jim Provett to give Gateshead another blank away day.
Ian Bogie's men however could easily have avoided defeat in the closing stages as Mackay had two efforts saved by Danby, the second when only left with the City keeper to beat following a One flick on.
"The sending off killed us," said Bogie "we battered them with ten men but if we had had all 11 for the duration of the game we would have won comfortably."
Gateshead: Provett, Baxter, Robinson, Gate (Phillips 79m), Curtis, Pelonde, Ascherl (McDermott 63m), Turnbull, One, Richardson (Swailes 23m), Mackay

Devine RB Joseph Sadler running wild against opponents
Last Friday evening the 27-3A title was "up for grabs" in Hondo. It didn't take the Hondo Owls very long to realize that they weren't going to be doing the "grabbing". They "merely" had to face an evening of "facing" Devine RB Joseph Sadler (5-10, 175, 4.5). There isn't a bit of "ho-hum" in his talents. He merely rushed for 466 yards while scoring five TDs in the Warhorses 47-27 romp over the Owls. That gave Devine a perfect, 10-0, season record.
Sadler set the Devine school record and has the third best rushing yardage for a single game in the entire area. In the history of area football, he's behind Madison's Devin Thomas (487) and Edgewood's Ronnie Asmore (476).
He also is the leading rusher in the entire state carrying the pigskin 225 times for 2,884 yards. He has scored 46 touchdowns and has a 12.8 yards per carry average.
As would be expected, Sadler is being heavily sought after by colleges in and out of the state. For those seeking some good playoff football, it wouldn't be a bad idea to take the short trip to South San Stadium, Friday evening (7:30) to watch Sadler and company battle with 28-3A Sam Houston (8-2).
While the Devine-Hondo game was going on, Friday, another 27-3A skirmish was taking place in Carrizo Springs to decide the third playoff team in that loop, Devine and Hondo having already accomplished the rights to post season play. The Carrizo Springs Wildcats were facing the Somerset Bulldogs.
It didn't take long for Somerset, behind powerful running by scatback Colby Fuselier (5-11, 190, Sr) to let the Wildcats know who's in charge with the Bulldogs eventually winning, 48-13. Colby quickly scored on runs of 20 and 50 yards in the first quarter to set the pace. He scored again on a 42-yard pass play in the third stanza. For the game, Colby carried the ball only nine times for 111 yards and gathered in three passes for another 100 yards. His twin brother, Colton Fuselier (6-2, 210, Sr) was a force in the game on defense. Colton is used on offense only if necessary. The twins formerly played in Pleasanton.
Jourdanton of 15-2A, Div. I, drew a bye in the playoffs and will resume action next week.
In grid picks last week, 19 games were called correctly out of 20 to move season guessin' figures to 190 right out of 220. In exact calls, Jourdanton was picked by one over Cole and won, 28-27, while Gonzales was given 28 over Cuero and won, 28-0. In a close one Devine was picked by 17 over Hondo and won, 47-27. Here are playoff game picks of interest for this week: Smithson Valley by 27 over McCollum Gregory-Portland by 7 over Brackenridge Hays Cons. by 6 over Brennan Victoria East by 31 over Jefferson Alamo Heights by 14 over Boerne Champion Beeville by 20 over Southside Calallen by 49 over Mercedes Kerrville by 13 over New Braunfels Canyon Port Lavaca Calhoun by 55 over Lanier Lampasas by 7 over Boerne La Vernia by 1 over Somerset Liberty Hill by 7 over Navarro Devine by 14 over Sam Houston Ingleside by 34 over Wharton Wimberley by 42 over Taylor Gonzales by 14 over Hondo Sinton by 20 over Sweeny Cole by 6 over Odem Blanco by 13 over Edna George West by 24 over Taft Marion by 21 over Hallettsville San Saba by 13 over Stockdale Three Rivers by 2 over Coleman La Villa by 14 over Yorktown Shiner by 13 over Kenedy

Last week at Aster Café, Jessica Manning showed Minneapolis that she may be a young voice in the great sea of singer-songwriters, but she's far from the tarty variety often attached to the "y" word. She has a deep, natural instrument which sounds equally beautiful on ballads like her "favorite song" Bonnie Rait's "I Can't Make You Love Me," or soulful originals about the hope of love and loves lost. Simple guitar ballads dominated the evening, but if you closed your eyes, you could fill in the blanks with bass, drums, and even a background singer or two. All she needs to do is write her angry chic song and she'll have her set fairly rounded out.
She fits nicely in a category that would include Alice Smith, Sade, and Raul Midon. She's young and sweet, but carries an air of repose and wisdom beyond her years. The voice, the stage presence, the storytelling – its all there. Comfortable with an audience, willing to talk to her crowd, and seemingly ambivalent to weather they're staying with her, or talking over her, yet without any inkling of being defeated or intimidated by either. Her original material waxes melancholy and indicates an inner old soul of a storyteller. With a few more years she'll elbow her way further out of the soft shell still just barely surrounding her, and when that happens, she's gonna be a monster. May she take Minneapolis by storm.

'live' action tv series years away?
so, GL has said it is still a few years away.
2 years ago, he said it would be this or next year(08)
why the wait? he has the money(what used to be our money), his own film corporation, tons of expanded universe to draw upon, and us, ready to give him more of our money. Getting another animated series is like getting lego, when i want kotor III.
How do you all feel about it?
more star wars=good
More time for development = less chance of rushing into stupid decisions and ****ing things up *cough*TSL*cough*
You seem to forget TSLRP...
But as long as the series is great. I'll watch it.
Well in 08 the Clone Wars series is coming out. I think its good that LucasArts is working on one project at a time.
I don't understand why people say that if they rush this it will be like TSL. TV and gaming, however many similarities are too completely different things. He has several billion dollars behind him, why are people scared?
No problem...
Kirstin Kreuk will be even hotter in a few years from now :naughty:
But seriously...planning a TV show like this will take some time. Making episodes at this moment costs alot of money. Maybe even too much. I think it's better this way :)
Well, for me, it seems like with every passing year, the release date is farer and farer...
I just hope they use their extra time well.
well, rushing and doing are 2 different things.
As well, Lucasarts is a huge company, animation and live series are 2 different things, more than not, handled by different departments anyway.
As far as cost, it's a clean investment. It's money in the bank. You make it, they (us) will come.
I've been Jedi for 30 yrs., waiting and waiting for 'the dark times, the empire'. Vader in his prime, Solo in his youth, the hunt of the Jedi. Also, in the radio series from the 70's, I remember then talking about the Sith, outside the republic, deep on the edge of the galaxy. Perhaps something about Vader having gone out there for a time.(it was a long time ago, my hearing this mind you). then, with kotor, Revan and the Exile are headed out that way also. So, still waiting for this story to be told. I hope we get some of this great mystery solved before i die, or civilization crumbles, or the Empire finishes taking over the world and bans Star Wars.
I don't think its that they can't work on both at the same time, but they don't want to release them at the same time. If they do one thing every year it makes star wars popular for that much longer.
No, the concern is that what Lucas wants to do may not be so interesting. While lots of people like ROTS to at least some degree, fears of the ghosts TPM and JarJar rearing their ugly heads are indeed present. Lucas can also completely turn Star Wars into a cartoonish (and by that I don't mean merely animated) version of itself, or a glorified "muppet show" of silly "fun" characters (like JarJar), if that is what he wants to do. And nobody can tell him otherwise, not even the fans. I think that's what many of us are concerned about.

Don't give up yet. I corresponded with Mirek, who is in South Korea right now as HL5/VK3DXI, and he tells me he has had considerable trouble getting the "special" satellite QSL cards printed and delivered to him (from Poland). He is still working the issue and hopes to have it resolved shortly and the cards mailed out as soon as they arrive. Also, he says, "if you do not want to wait, send e-mail to Ted, DL4DBR and he will send black and white card immediately." 73, Jerry, K5OE ---- Via the amsat-bb mailing list at AMSAT.ORG courtesy of AMSAT-NA.

A trip to the local Costco in Superior, Colorado has confirmed that their bakery features products that include the controversial "yoga mat" chemical additive known as azodicarbonamide.
AZO (some refer to it as ADA) is banned in much of the world. In the European Union, food cannot even be packaged in plastics containing AZO, let alone have the chemical as an ingredient.
A number of bread brands sold at Costco feature the additive. Among the products that are baked on-site, Costco's butter croissants and carrot walnut muffins are two of the products that have azodicarbonamide listed in the ingredients.
Yesterday, the Environmental Working Group released a list of nearly 500 food products sold throughout the United States that include azodicarbonamide. Costco baked goods were not among those listed.
Azodicarbonamide has been in the news a great deal lately after the blogger known as "Food Babe" (Vani Hari) started a petition to have the chemical removed from the breads at Subway. After more than 70,000 people signed the petition, Subway announced that they would discontinue using the "dough conditioner."
After speaking to several folks at Costco's corporate offices in Issaquah, Washington, a request has been sent to their media relations people to comment on the use of azodicarbonamide in products produced in their bakeries. Their response will be published when, and if, they make one.

Aldea Montessori
15639 N 40th St
Aldea Montessori is the vision-become-reality of Donna and Michael D'Hoostelaere. Donna and Michael wanted the children of Phoenix to experience the full spectrum of Dr. Maria Montessori's program, from Toddler through Elementary, much as their two sons had done. They were committed to building a school of excellent quality—in the facility, in the staff and in the program offered—according to Dr. Montessori's standards as set forth in the Association Montessori Internationale tradition. Aldea received its first accreditation with AMI in the spring of 2002 and has maintained that certification ever since.
Ms. Donna opened the first Primary classroom in August of 2001 with four students. The Toddler House was added in 2003 and the expansion began. In 2006, Casa 2 opened and brought the total enrollment to 60.
With the opening of Casa 2, the original building was fully occupied. In order to grow, a new facility would have to be built or bought. As with all the other answered prayers, the property behind the 40th Street location became available at just the right time. The family of the lovely couple who had owned the home helped make it possible for Aldea to complete the purchase of the property.
The Brill Campus, named for the couple, opened in August of 2009. It houses the Elementary classroom and Casa 3.
Aldea Montessori is now the vision of not only Donna and Michael, but the dream-come-true of 70 families and 14 staff members. It is a home-away-from-home for 80+ children from 18 months through 9 years. With the help of the community at large, Aldea will continue to grow and thrive for many years to come.

Rant Lite
Today's rant examines Racism and Eugenics as they apply to the Civilization Collapse.
Quote of the Day
Luk 21:10Then He said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
A Tale of Two Depressions
As the Great Depression progressed onward, the early collapse in RE prices made many Banks insolvent, which then precipitated the Stock Market Crash of 1929.
Geological and Cosmological Event Watch ThreadNot sure if there is really a significant increase in geologic events right now, but at least reading the MSM over the last year it appears to me that there has been an increase in frequency and in amplitude.
Other Shoes and the Uselessness Premium"Creating fuel production in a failed- state Libya is beyond the grasp of the EU's and United States' unconventional 'assets'. Blatant military intervention would be opposed by Russia, China and no doubt the other oil- producing autocracies."
Race is the latest topic here of conflict, as it is sure to be in even greater relief as we work our way through the Collapse of our monetary system. While of course there are "low class" people of all races, here in the FSofA Black people who live in the "30 Blocks of Squalor" through all the major cities are very high profile low class people who get a lot of attention here on the pages of TBP.
These are not of course the only systemically poor people here in the FSofA, we also have a huge contingent of poor Hispanic migrant laborers in the agricultural areas of the southwest and CA, and quite a bit of White Trash sprinkled all over the country in various pockets. Regardless though, the archetype of the FSA here in the FSofA is the Welfare Queen, generally Black with several children from different men living in publicly subsidized housing, paying no taxes, getting Free health care in the ERs of Public Hospitals, feeding the kids on SNAP cards and getting obese eating Kentucky Fried Chicken while watching American Idol received off of DirectTV Satellite Dishes on the rooftops of their HUD garbage decorated apartment complexes.
This very OBVIOUS bunch of LOSERS of our society aren't just a problem for Racist Honkeys, Successful Black Men also find these "Niggers" to be a problem as well. Pretty hard to command the Respect you deserve as a contributing Black member of the society when just because your Skin Color is the same as all these Dead Beats you get lumped right in with them when the Race issue gets pulled up in a debate.
It gets even further difficult because in the effort to develop some Rationale and Explanation for why you have so many "Low Class Niggers" populating the 30 Blocks of Squalor in all our Big Shities, you get the Eugenics crowd that attributes the problem to Low IQ prevalent in the "Negroid Race" as a whole. Even if you happen to be a very smart Black person, because the Eugenics folks identify the whole RACE as genetically stupid, you are now stupid by association of skin color.
The whole Eugenics idea has been promulgated for at least the last century, besides Adolf Hitler you have everyone from Teddy Roosevelt to Woodrow Wilson to Henry Ford to Margaret Sanger who all bought into this idea. The idea is a very powerful one which serves to both justify white domination of the society and to explain why blacks have been as a group perpetually at the low end of the society. Anthropologists for over a century have been trying to quantify this, with IQ being the primary measure of intelligence colloquially accepted as a "true" indicator, despite the fact all intelligence tests have built in bias that makes them virtually useless as a true measure of native intelligence, which itself cannot really be defined. Anyhow, you have a whole lot of "science" built up here which establishes what eugenics believers want to prove, which is that black people are dumber than white people and asian people.
Now, trying to DISPROVE what a century's worth of well-funded Eugenics oriented anthropologists have "proved" is a complete waste of time I won't engage in. It misses the most important point here anyhow, which is that we have a social problem which supercedes intelligence distribution. I don't think it is true that as a race Black people are significantly stupider than White or Asian people, but even if it was TRUE its not the problem. The problem is that just being smart or stupid is not the end all and be all to your right to exist on the planet, and how should smart and stupid people be distributing out the wealth of the planet?
For the purposes of argument here, assume you are a Eugenicist who believes Black people are stupid. So like Margaret Sanger, you go around and try to either Abort or Sterilize all Black people, to thus rid the population of this drag. Well, after you do this, what will you find true? You will find it true that plenty of the still standing White People are damn stupid also! So now you have to go about eliminating Stupid White people along with the Stupid Black people. Exactly at what point are people Smart enough to have a right to continue living on the planet? Is there some cutoff point at which because you are stupid you no longer have a right to live? How would you go about testing this, and WHEN would you test it? You cannot test it at birth, to find out how smart someone is you have to give them some time to actually learn things and demonstrate intelligence. Exactly what is it they are supposed to learn, and how do you test for it? Is IQ a real measure of the smarts? It all depends on the society structures they are immersed in.
Most of us would accept that Bill Gates is a smart guy, but how well would he do in the Australian Outback? Is he as Smart as the average Abo living in the Outback to survive and thrive in that environment? What is the environment we all will have to deal with in the future? Will it select for the kind of smarts Bill Gates has, or will it select for the smarts of an Australian Aboriginal?
Now, it is certainly a problem that we have developed a whole class of dependent people here in our society, and many of them are quite Black in skin color here in the FSofA. For those of us White folks who grew up in neighborhoods that were overrun by this bunch of people, they caused us plenty of problems, no doubt. Stucky had to walk the Scenic Route to get back to his house without getting the living shit beat out of him by Black Boys who were just generally pissed at him for being White; and I had to act like a Retard and dress really poor to be able to take more direct routes through their neighborhoods without getting beat on. I even lived a couple of occasions in communities that were more Black than White, and I was always nervous about it. Had some Black friends, but never could be sure just when somebody might get pissed off at me just because I was White. That racial divide EXISTS in our society, and its going to exist right through this spin down, and will likely get worse here as people are fighting over an ever shrinking pie.
For this reason among many others I live here on the Last Great Frontier. I doubt even Iowa is Whiter than Alaska. Racial and ethnic divides in our society DEFINITELY still exist despite so-called "Multi-culturalism". Multi-culturalism is a load of Horseshit, "Like Affiliates with Like". You TRUST people who are "like" you, and the more "like" you they are, the more you trust them and affiliate with them. Thus besides Skin Color, people tend to affiliate with people with the same Religious Beliefs. Its true with economics also, Rich folks hang with rich, poor with poor. You have beliefs and experience and parameters for your life all in common with others of your ilk. TBP tends to attract a demographic that is much like its Leader, Jim Quinn. Upper Middle Class Well educated Boomers and Silents mostly. With the exception of the fact I am an Iconoclast, I fit the TBP demographic perfectly. THAT is why I get so much universal revulsion for what I write, if you have not figured that out by now. I am JUST LIKE YOU, but I see it all exactly opposite, and when you read what I write you look down the Rabbit Hole. The statistical anomaly here Howard fits this demographic with the singular exception that he happens to be Black in exterior skin color, but for the most part he holds all the same ideological concepts internally as the rest of the demographic here. In colloquial terms, Howard is an "Oreo", Black on the outside, White on the inside. This would be a "phyle" in the terminology that Doug Casey has used, people who gravitate ideologically in cyberspace based on ideas rather than externalities like racial characteristics. Howard fits here, I fit here, Stuck fits here, even though we all have remarkably different ways of looking at the world we all "fit" in this phyle.
Bemoaning the state of the 30 Blocks of Squalor and rehashing your lifelong problems with other groups of people is a waste of time and energy. Whatever the reasons are for where people are where they are in the socio-economic spectrum of our society as it exists at the moment, this is where they are. MOST people of whatever race are in a very untenable situation overall, this includes the Black folks in the 30 Blocks of Squalor AND the White Folks in Suburban McMansions sprinkled all over the country. Trust me, there are just as many if not MORE incredibly STUPID white people inhabiting McMansions all over the country as there are incredibly STUPID black people living in HUD apartments in the inner cities. They are ALL EQUALLY DOOMED. You would be well advised not to affiliate with any of them.
You want to survive this Apocalypse? Affilliate with people like yourself, racially, ethnically, religiously, make a HOMOGENOUS TRIBE. The biggest problem you will ever find of develeloping a Homogenous tribe is that AFTER you find your group that matches all the ancillary characteristics, MOST of them are bound to be quite STUPID. Because regardless of Race, Religion or Ethnicity, most people ARE stupid. Still, you are better off affiliating that way than with a whole bunch of really Smart people who are different in all other ways. That is what TBP is, and I ask you honestly, do you really think a whole bunch of smart folks like we have here who all have completely different concepts on reality could make a go of it TOGETHER? Not likely. LLPOH and myself in the same room would ANHILLIATE each other like Matter and Anti-Matter coming together at the same place in the same time. NOTHING would survive this, the community would be destroyed. Too many smart people in the same place at the same time is a recipe for conflict and disaster. You need all kinds, and generally speaking, too many smart people together cause a shit load of damage. Think all the smart guys involved in the Manhattan Project. As J. Robert Oppenheimer quoted from the Bhagavit Gita, " I am Become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds".
See You on the Other Side.

They do have to do something along that line and have to report in periodically to let the unemployment office know what's going on.
What do people on welfare in the UK, other countries, and the rest of the US have to do? IN Wisconsin, they developed a program nicknamed 'Workfare', where those who are receiving state assistance have to be in a job or looking for a job after a certain period of time in order to continue to receive benefits, and I believe there's a time limit to benefits. In Illinois, I believe there is no time limit, and I'm not sure if there's a work requirement as part of the program or not. Food stamps and medical care are separate programs from this.
I could find some contrived way to bring this back to the original topic, but I'm too tired this morning to be that creative.

Loan Quality Advisor
An Automated Way to Identify Potential Pre- and Post-Closing Loan Eligibility Issues
Loan Quality Advisor® (LQASM), is our risk and loan eligibility assessment tool that evaluates loan data to help lenders determine if a loan is eligible for sale to Freddie Mac.
Incorporating LQA into your business processes will help strengthen loan quality and meet our purchase requirements – key components to achieving success under the representation and warranty framework.
LQA Supports Your Business
Using LQA in your loan manufacturing process provides greater purchase certainty through detailed loan data feedback with the ability to:
- Validate that loans are consistent with Freddie Mac requirements.
- Be used anywhere in the loan origination process – from underwriting to loan delivery.
- Determine whether third parties have originated a loan according to Freddie Mac eligibility requirements.
- Gain an early view of loan delivery issues.
- Reduce the time it takes to fund at loan delivery.
- Accept and process both the Uniform Loan Delivery Dataset (ULDD) Phase 1 and 2 data points consistent with the selling system.
- Identify loan production defect trends and proactively resolve them.
- Leverage the merged credit report used during origination for use in Risk Assessment evaluation (available with ULDD Phase 2 data file and certain credit reporting companies). – NEW
LQA Services Provide Fast and Transparent Feedback
- Loan Prospector Data Compare
- Ensures the Loan Prospector® result is still valid by providing a comparison view of current loan data submitted to LQA against loan data used in the last Loan Prospector submission.
- Helps maintain the loan's LP Accept risk class so that the representation and warranty relief provided by Loan Prospector can remain valid at loan purchase.
- Risk Assessment
- Provides Freddie Mac's view of risk on non-Loan Prospector originated loans.
- Leverages the merged credit report used during the origination process.
- To obtain Freddie Mac's view of credit risk through the LQA Risk Assessment service, LQA will obtain new infile credit data. As a result, your organization may need to establish a relationship with the three national credit bureaus (Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax). Your request for credit data through LQA should appear on a borrower's credit file as an account review inquiry, also known as a "soft pull."
- Purchase Eligibility
- Provides an early view of comprehensive purchase edits by running the same data quality and compliance rules run in the selling system at loan delivery.
- Identifies potential pre- and post-closing delivery errors related to data quality, charter compliance, and credit compliance.
- Applies to both Loan Prospector and non-Loan Prospector originated loans.
* This does not apply when merged credit is re-issue.
Get Ready for LQA
To help you get ready to begin using LQA, make sure you are able to answer the following LQA readiness checklist questions:
- Are you able to create a ULDD file? (Note: not all data required at loan delivery is required in LQA.)
- At what point(s) in your process will you evaluate loans through LQA? The tool can be used before and/or after a loan closes.
- Can you create a ULDD formatted file at the point(s) in the process that you want to run LQA? If you use a loan origination system (LOS) or selling system vendor, check with them for potential restrictions.
LQA System-to-System Interface Available
The LQA system-to-system interface offers an automated way to submit loans to LQA directly from your loan origination or other desktop system. The interface provides access to the same functionality and results experienced in the LQA browser access method. Vendors who have built to LQA can be found on our Technology Integration Vendors list.
LQA Registration
Contact your Freddie Mac representative or Customer Support (800-FREDDIE) for details on the sign-up process. Once signed up, you will be able to easily integrate LQA into your business processes.
Check back periodically for updates.

One Direction: 'Banned' Interview Questions Explained
One Direction's Zayn Malik was recently subjected to the shortest interview ever, after a long list of "banned" questions was read out to a US radio DJ - listen here.
Now, though, One Direction's people have revealed what really happened - the question restrictions were all reportedly just for the fans. This message was posted on the band's Twitter account:
"Regarding the recent story about One Direction "banning questions" - this is a complete misunderstanding. One Direction asked if certain recurring questions could be avoided in future interviews as the band were giving the same answers continually. They knew, via feedback, that the fans were requesting a wider range of subject matter in interviews.
"Questions relating to describing each band member, or referencing The X Factor, are certainly not out of bounds. A suggestion was merely made to try and make interviews more interesting for the fans, which has been misconstrued and misunderstood."
That's that all cleared up then! BS

Flames Come Up Short at Miami, 82-70
Dec. 22, 2012
Miami 82, UIC 70 (Final Stats)OXFORD, Ohio - The UIC men's basketball team shot 47.2 percent from the floor, its most efficient effort in the past seven games, but dropped an 82-70 decision versus host Miami University Saturday afternoon at Millett Hall. The RedHawks shot 56.6 percent from the field and forced the Flames into a season-high 19 turnovers.
With the loss, UIC moved to 9-3, including 2-2 record in road games. Miami upped its record to 4-6 overall.
The Flames placed five players in double figures, led by senior point guard Gary Talton's 15 points. For the second-straight game, sophomore guard Joey Miller recorded a double-digit scoring output, chipping in 11 points off the bench. Miami was led by Elmhurst, Ill., native Will Sullivan, who scored a game-high 16 points on 6-of-6 shooting.
"We played a Miami team that has a lot of pride; we knew that they could put up these types of numbers," said head coach Howard Moore. "But for the second game in a row, we were a step slow defensively. Offensively, they did a good job of speeding us up and getting us out of our rhythm. The pace really hurt us tonight."
Miami built a 39-28 halftime lead after converting 16 field goals and shooting 50 percent from the field. Clinging to a one-point (8-7) lead, the RedHawks went on a 12-2 run to claim a 20-9 lead, and force UIC into its first timeout. Miami hit two-of its five first-half threes during the spurt. Talton and senior center Josh Crittle combined for a quick 6-0 run to slice the RedHawks' lead to just five (20-15), but Miami countered with a 12-3 run to claim its first double-digit advantage (32-20) of the half with 4:46 remaining.
Sophomore wing Marc Brown and Crittle scored on back-to-back possessions in the final four-minute segment, and the Flames forced three-straight defensive stops. But Miami ended the half on a 7-4 run, bolstered by a buzzer-beating three from Will Felder, to extend its lead back to double figures (39-28) heading into the locker room at halftime.
UIC quickly sliced Miami's lead to six points (42-36) just 2:03 into the second half, beginning a trend that saw the RedHawks' advantage fluctuate between six and 13 points for nearly the entire frame - UIC was within six or seven points on 10 times.
With 5:21 remaining, the Flames were within 67-60 with possession of the basketball, but turned the ball over. The RedHawks scored the next four points and never looked back, eventually building a game-high 14-point lead with 4:59 left.
UIC will wrap up its three-game road trip next Saturday (Dec. 29), when the Flames travel to the Glass City to take on Toledo. The Rockets are 3-6 on the season, and have been idle from competition since Dec. 8.

The 2nd Street Market has all kinds of great foods, music and dancing this weekend to help you celebrate St. Patrick's Day, but have you seen all the options they have for helping your pets celebrate?! Why not share the fun with your dog, cat, rabbit or other pet?
You can visit the market this weekend and enjoy live Celtic music and dancing from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Market Pavilion on the East end of the market. The Collins Connection will be performing traditional hornpipes, jigs and ballads followed by dancers from the Celtic Academy of Irish Dance.
While there, check out the many great items for your pets at Animal Snackers gourmet pet bakery at the same end of the market. Animal Snackers Bakery has all-natural, gourmet snacks for dogs, cats and herbivores, as well as some very classy bandanas and toys for the four-legged bunch.
The proceeds from this shop support the homeless pets at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton, and all treats are homemade by dedicated volunteers of the Friends of the Humane Society.
There are treats for every pet's preference, and ingredients are listed on a card next to the treats so pets with sensitivities to egg or wheat can still enjoy a healthy gourmet snack. Bunnies love the Sesame Crunchers and Rottie Biscotti (both are vegetarian offerings) and at least 40 different varieties of treats are offered weekly, out of a rotating group of over 70 different recipes.
Some of the baked treats are little works of art in themselves: little shamrock cookies and other St. Patrick's Day items are available this weekend. Most of the savory treats are priced 3/$1.00 but the extra large or extra fancy may sell from 50 cents to $2.00.
Dog and cat toys are also available, with cat toys starting at 50 cents. Volunteers make most/all of the catnip toys, using extremely fresh dried catnip. There are plush dog toys, some with squeakers, and hard rubber Kong toys. There are also festive St. Patrick's Day bandanas!
Both the market and the bakery are open three days every week. Thursday and Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Area coaches didn't know what they'd find when their wrestlers reported for practice on Thursday. Days of bad weather and canceled practices were an unexpected curveball for coaches as they prepared their teams for traditional area tournaments to begin this weekend."I worry as much about their weight as I do their lack of wrestling," Clarke Central coach Tim Stoudenmire said. "At this point in the year, there's not a whole lot of learning going on in the practice room. It's maintaining, staying sharp and in control of their weight."

Oh yeah… I enjoy any 'Avengers' news regardless how small or pointless it is. On the other hand, as you may know, I don't dare post set spy photos and reserve my site for officially released images. Well, thankfully Marvel has released images of a cool new banner that will be hanging in your local cinema. I do have to say that the concept is simple, but these are some rad lookin' banners. Also, from the looks of it, we might be seeing each Avenger as it's very own poster as well. My only complaint would have to be the way the characters are posed. Other than Captain America, why does it seem that the photographer was posing our beloved Avengers to pose while sticking their necks out? Seems a bit odd. What do I know… My favorite has to be Black Widow and Loki. They look sexy as hell.
Hit the jump for a look at the second banner and click on them to get your hands on a larger version. Enjoy minions.

Eric Dolphy: Straight Up and Down
Straight Up and Down
Eric Dolphy (alto sax, flute, bass clarinet)
Out to Lunch (Blue Note CDP 7 46524 2 DIDX 1136)
Eric Dolphy (alto sax, flute, bass clarinet), Freddie Hubbard (trumpet), Bobby Hutcherson (vibes), Richard Davis (bass), Tony Williams (drums).
Composed by Eric Dolphy.
Recorded: Englewood Cliffs, NJ, February 25, 1964
Rating: 85/100 (learn more)
In his liner notes, the composer states that this performance reminded him of a drunk walking. Listening to the head that frames this wide-ranging free piece, one hears the analogy is apt. Dolphy's use of angular melodies incorporating intervallic leaps and rhythmic irregularities always catches my ear, and his passionate improvisational skills simply mesmerize. The rest of the cast gets plenty of space to expand on the leader's blueprint at a relaxed and leisurely pace. The interaction of vibes, bass and drums in particular makes for amazing shifting textures under Dolphy and Hubbard. It's still remarkable to recall that Williams had just turned 19 and Hutcherson 23 when this recording was made.

Gipperich arraigned on neglect charges
A South Bend mother was arraigned Friday on two charges stemming from an incident where police say she took her 9-month-old daughter with her to purchase heroin.
SOUTH BEND — A South Bend woman was arraigned Friday on two charges stemming from a weekend incident in which she allegedly took her infant daughter with her when buying heroin.
Heather Gipperich, 31, was arraigned before a St. Joseph County Superior Court magistrate on charges of neglect of a dependent and taking a child to a nuisance Friday, Feb. 21.
A hearing has been scheduled for March 6 to set trial and record dates.
Formal charges were filed against Gipperich Thursday.
According to a probable cause affidavit filed in St. Joseph Superior Court, the child, 9-month-old Bethany Ann Gipperich, was reported missing by Heather Gipperich's mother Saturday, Feb. 15.
When Heather Gipperich returned to her mother's home Sunday afternoon, South Bend police say she seemed to be "out of it" and was experiencing serious personal issues.
Heather Gipperich later told police she had taken the child with her to a house in Elkhart, where she purchased heroin, got high and left the child at the house in the care of a woman identified only as "Amanda" in court documents.
Elkhart police found the child at the house and she was taken into the custody of the Indiana Department of Child Services.
Heather Gipperich was arrested Sunday and remains incarcerated at the St. Joseph County Jail. She is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday.

FAQ - General
Topical FAQs
FAQ Search
Dental Assisting - PTE Program
After submitting my application, how do I know if it was received?
After you hit the "submit" button a message will appear to let you know if your application was processed. Early submission is recommended.
Can I apply for a CWI scholarship if I am working toward a certificate and not a degree?
Yes. Applicants may be seeking either a degree or certificate unless otherwise noted in the scholarship criteria.
Can I apply for CWI scholarships if I am participating in a Workforce Development apprenticeship program?
Yes. There are several CWI scholarships directed to students in Workforce Development apprenticeships programs. The scholarship application questionnaire will ask specific questions regarding your program of study to identify your eligibility for these scholarships.
Can I be awarded more than one scholarship per semester?
Yes, though multiple awards are not typical. The scholarship committee will usually try to assist as many students as possible. Some donors may request that their scholarship not be awarded to a student receiving other scholarship assistance.
Does the amount I receive in scholarships affect my eligibility for financial aid?
Yes. Scholarships are applied directly to your student account through One Stop Student Services. Your unmet need will be recalculated and, if necessary, your aid package will be adjusted. In most cases, any adjustment will only affect that amount of student loans borrowed.
How are scholarship recipients selected?
Applications are reviewed and scored by a committee. All decisions are final.
How do I know if I have been admitted to CWI?
Admitted students have an assigned student ID. If you have applied for admission and do not yet have a student ID you have not been admitted. Please wait for your student ID to be assigned before completing the online scholarship application.
How will I know if I've been awarded a scholarship?
The selection process will take approximately six weeks. Award recipients will be notified by email to the account you listed on your application.
I am already receiving financial aid and/or another non-CWI scholarship. Can I still apply for a scholarship?
Yes. You can and should apply for both financial aid and scholarships. If you are awarded a CWI scholarship, One Stop Student Services will be notified and any adjustments to your current financial aid package will be made accordingly. In most cases, any adjustments result in a reduced amount of student loans borrowed.
I am enrolled at both CWI and another institution of higher education. Am I a dual credit student?
No. 'Dual Credit' on the scholarship application refers to high school students taking college credits while in high school.
I am enrolled in a Professional Technical Education (PTE) program but it is not listed. Do I still qualify for a scholarship?
Yes, there are several scholarships available for ANY PTE program. Please select 'My program is not listed' and you will be considered for those general PTE scholarships.
I am not an honor student, will I still be considered for a scholarship?
Yes. Many CWI scholarships do not require a specific grade point average (GPA). However, it's important to remember that all scholarships are competitive. CWI has established a universal requirement that all applicants who are currently enrolled at CWI must meet or exceed CWI academic requirements for Satisfactory Academic Progress. (See CWI Catalog or Student Handbook for more information).
I am not sure what to do on the 'Supplemental Questions' page.
This page is where you would complete your essay for that particular scholarship to be read and scored by the scholarship committee. This will need to be completed in order to fulfill the requirements for that particular scholarship.
I am professionally licensed in real estate or have another professional certification that is required for providing a professional service. Does this disqualify me from receiving a scholarship?
This question specifically relates to one scholarship. Students that have prior degrees or professional certifications will be ineligible for one type of scholarship but still be considered for other CWI scholarships.
