Another Day
I'm supposed to go shopping with Lily and Gibson today and Hank just called and could I please bring him some Mucinex DM if I'm coming to town? and I just re-watched Obama's speech from last night and I feel sort of paralyzed which is how I've felt mostly since the reports started coming in about the tragedy in Newtown and I think we probably all feel this way. Still so stunned and saddened and sickened, too.
Well. What do you do?
You take care of your babies as best you can. You love each other.
You support the politicians who are going to try, despite the complexity of the situation, to do something to prevent more of these slaughters.
You try to ignore the ignorant assholes who claim that the answer is (a) More guns, and (b) More god.
Because if you don't you might start screaming and never stop.
You take back the library books and you bake Christmas cookies and you hold your babies so tightly and you tell the people you love how much you love them and you wash the dishes and you do the laundry and you realize that this moment is all we have.
Or something like that.
I love you.

Stunned, sad and sick indeed. And so fucking angry. My babies could so easily have been the ones killed. How did we as a society get to a place where even someone who is desperately mentally ill thinks this is the right thing to do???

Fitch Park Was Land of the Giants Today
Hector Mercedes roped a two-run triple to highlight a three-run 6th and Randy Ortiz tripled and singled, scored two runs, and stole a base, leading one squad of Giants to a 9-3 victory on Field #2, and Cristian Otero smacked a two-run triple, singled twice, and scored three runs, Alberto Robles drove-in two runs with an RBI double and an RBI single, and Ryan Jones doubled twice, stole a base, and scored a run, leading the other squad of Giants to a 9-2 victory on Field #3, as the Cubs were swept in a Cactus League Extended Spring Training doubleheader played this morning at Fitch Park in Mesa, AZ.

I'd like to interrupt the
I'd like to interrupt the breathless anticipation of the dawn of the Cody Ransom era to call attention to some pleasant news from the minor leagues:
West Tennessee is 7-6, with good performances from the outfield of Rubi Silva, Matt Szczur, and Jae-Hoon Ha. These guys all have shortcomings--Ha and Szczur don't hit home runs, and Silva doesn't walk, but it would be nice if a couple of them get to Iowa this year or next so Mike Wellman doesn't have to watch AAAA retreads in the outfield. Eric Jokisch, he of the most unfortunate name, is 2-0 and reliever Brian Schlitter hasn't given up a run yet. Feel free to invent future headlines involving these two gentlemen.
Daytona is also 7-6, having crushed Clearwater 13-2. Baez hit his third homer- his average is crappy but he's still hitting for power- and perhaps most impressive is the ELEVEN walks the D-Cubs drew to go with 12 hits. Outfielder John Andreoli, who I guess will battle DeVoss and Easterling for playing time when Soler returns, had three of them, bringing him to 12 for the year in 13 games to go with a .348 BA in the early going. Last year he walked 75 times and stole 55 bases. He's a 22-year-old drafted out of college, but maybe he'll be the answer to the question many of us had: "What would Campana be like if he ever drew a walk?" He's not little, but as a fast white outfielder who doesn't hit homers, he's a candidate for the future Scr***y Cub du jour. Don't remember what AZ Phil has said about him. Yao-Lin Wang and Austin Kirk have pitched well in just a few innings.
Kane County plays in the Rain and Snow League, so I guess we'll have to wait for good news from them.

AL pitcher hits a home run for a 1-0 lead. There goes perspective
Here are the ERAs for the last five starting pitchers:
At what point does the manager note it's not the "other pitcher"?
And why does he start Montero in the middle of a downturn?
Some perspective (mostly for my own benefit): Dan Straily beat MadBum 2-1 today as the Reds took 2 of 3 in SF. Giants are 2-9 since the break and their lead over LA is down to 2.5 games. So, yeah...baseball. It'll drive ya nuts.
McNutt / Archer didn't work out well for us.
The floor is more valuable than the ceiling. It's the same reason we drafted Kris Bryant instead of Jon Gray.
Apparently the Yankees had the choice of either Gleyber Torres or Eloy Jimenez in the Chapman deal, and they chose Torres.
Chapman shouldn't be reserved anymore on 40 man.
Interesting split on Heyward according to ESPN. As a CF, his slash line .292/.363/.375/.738. At RF: .212/.204/.300/.604. 21/72 as a CF, 58/273 as a RF.
He's also been better when batting 2nd, but he had a nice start in the 6 hole, but has slumped ever since. He was heating up before the All Star break, but is only hitting .108 in the 2nd half.
When we played the Reds with Chapman, I always thought of it as an eight-inning game. So now other teams have eight innings to try to get a lead against the Cubs. Should be a challenge, assuming three or four Cubs ever start hitting again.
I don't really try to get to know and like these players personally. I'm rooting for laundry, for the most part. Exceptions might be when a player makes trouble in the clubhouse or in the dugout. (Zambrano and Bradley come to mind. Also Papelbon.) But I don't think Chapman is one of those jerks.
Unfortunately, a pretty good summary. It looks like next year Heyward will be getting yet another batting stance adjustment.
The recent good news has been Baez. I'm afraid about the next league adjustment on him, though, which is probably right around the corner.
Bryant I don't worry about too much. Just not seeing the ball well right now. He'll turn it around. Russell's been good with men in scoring position all year and he's 22ish. He'll be fine but next year is likely to be his breakout year.
If Travis' back-to-back-to-back walks cost Hendricks the ERA title, that would really suck.
Edit: "A lifeless loss to a lousy Sox team."
This place is a real downer after a loss to the Sox.
I expect they will go 5-9 games above .500 the rest of the year. 96-98 wins will win the Division.
They should have one more 2-3 week hot streak in them.
However, several players are just "average" for the last month: Zobrist, Ross, Russell, Ceasar. Montero is terrible, plus he cannot throw anyone out. -WAR. Heyward is abysmal at the plate, but a plus in the OF. Still with RISP he has been terrible. KB has not been driving in runs as of late. But Apparently the team is still above average with RISP according to S Sahadev.
I came to that realization tonight. I kept expecting them to play better, but now I realize they aren't going to. They are a .500 team now.
- They have one reliable starting pitcher. Jake's magic is gone, and it doesn't look like it's coming back. Lester has been lousy recently. Lackey's ERA goes up every time he pitches.
- Heyward has been dead weight all year. I can't remember a single series where he was a significant offensive contributor. Not one. Great defense, but but if he were hitting .270 with 10 HR and played average defense, the Cubs would be better off.

I have setup a hotspot at my local harbor. I have encountered a problem with my setup. The accespoint that creates the hotspot connection is a out door long range antenna from UBNT. The distance from the nearest router, to the optimal position of the antenna is 1km. And it's not in straight open air :/
I have managed to get it to work with AirMax from UBNT. My setup looks like this:
- 192.168.1.1 - My Router
- 192.168.1.30 - My first AirMax antenna (in bridge mode). Creates a network called CARRIERONE
- 192.168.1.31 - A wireless station, that connects to CARRIERONE.
- 192.168.1.40 - My second AirMax Antenna (Bridge mode from point 3). Creates CARRIERTWO.
- 192.168.1.41 - A wireless station, that connects to CARRIERTWO.
- 192.168.1.50 - My access point that creates the hotspot (Bridge mode. Network from point 5)
This works like a charm, except that computers connected to the hotspot don't get dynamic IP's. The users have to assign static IP's.
I have tried the same setup, with only two links (Though with extremely poor link quality bc of buildings blocking the sight), and then the clients get assigned dynamical IP's.
I have managed to do a workaround by setting the access point up as a router. But we have plans to extend the network, and would really like to have everything in bridge mode.
Why does this work when we use 3 links, and not when we use 5 links? The setup is EXACTLY the same, except from the IP.
Is this a normal problem? Do I need special equipment, or is it maybe the router that is incapable of managing IP's when there are too many bridges?

Participatory . Interactive . Engaging
Museums and heritage sites are my happy place! Join me on walks and guided visits through Mumbai's fascinating heritage spaces and museums to find out why. Walks are available on request, with routes and timings tailored to suit your needs and interests.
Explore Mumbai's historic centre:
- One 2 hour route would take you from the iconic Gateway of India precinct to Regal Circle – then to the original boundary of the erstwhile Bombay Fort at the start of the old Dockyard Road (Shahid Bhagat Singh Marg) – on to Kala Ghoda and the University buildings, to end at the Art Deco precinct across Oval Maidan.
- If you decide to extend the walk to 3 hours we could continue towards Flora Fountain and the heart of the old Fort – to St. Thomas' Cathedral, Horniman Circle and finish at the old Town Hall (Asiatic Society). Alternatively we could follow the original boundary of the Fort along today's DN road to end at VT (CST) station.
- Or, you could choose to begin at the heart of the old Fort at the Town Hall building (Asiatic Society), walk around Horniman Circle to St. Thomas' Cathedral, then Flora Fountain and onward to the High Court and University Buildings, to end at the Art Deco precinct across Oval Maidan. (2 hours)
- This route could be extended to 3 hours to include Kala Ghoda, Regal Circle and the Gateway precinct. Alternatively we could continue in the opposite direction, following the original boundary of the Fort along today's DN road, to end at VT (CST) station.
- Finally, you could begin at Oval Maidan, walk towards Flora Fountain, which marks the boundary to the old Bombay Fort, onward to St. Thomas' Cathedral, around Horniman Circle to the old Town Hall, then through the Indian Town within the Fort, past Ballard Estate, to end at VT (CST) station. (3 hours)
Represented along these routes are the various architectural traditions that characterise the historic city centre. The routes, which take you through Mumbai's premier heritage precinct, further trace the history and development of the core city of Old Bombay. My aim is to highlight the fascinating stories behind the physical spaces and buildings (that may seem very familiar) of Mumbai today. During the walk, archival images of the city help bridge the gap between past and present. I would recommend either of these routes for first time heritage walkers/visitors in Mumbai.
BUT…there's so much more to Mumbai than the erstwhile Fort area!
- Another popular route walks you through the neighbourhood of Bandra West. This walk focuses on the unique physical spaces, character and cultures of Bandra today, its history and legacies, and its use and negotiation of the same. (2.5 hours)
- One of my favourites is walk-through of Mumbai's city museum – the Dr. Bhau Daji Lad Museum at Byculla. As Mumbai's oldest museum and greatest heritage conservation success story, its building, collections and history are a definite must-see for anyone interested in the city and its stories. The Museum has an exciting exhibitions programme which situates contemporary art displays within and in response to its historical setting, giving you a reason to keep going back! (2 .5 hours)
- Explore 19th century Byculla through the lens of change! Once a low lying swamp submerged every high tide, Byculla grew into a sophisticated residential suburb, attracting the most affluent of Bombay's citizens, in the early 19th century. The late 1800's brought more change and Byculla was again transformed. This walk encourages an exploration of the area's complex histories through its physical spaces and unique contemporary character. (2.5 hours)
- The Lives of Objects: Discover the ever fascinating Chor (or is it Shor?) Bazaar, hidden deep within the labyrinth of the city's traditional Market district. The shops of Chor Bazaar are best described as today's curiosity cabinets, each stocked floor to ceiling (literally) with objects bursting to share their stories! The visit will illustrate how objects can speak to us, and how we may use them for inspiration, reflection and learning. (1.5 hours)
- Travel back in time at the Nehru Centre Library's iconic Discovery of India exhibition. With 14 galleries of immersive, tactile displays that encourage critical thought and engagement with a wide sweep of past events, art, architecture, material culture and traditions, there is no better place in the city to experience the history of India!
- Schools & Colleges: Specially conceptualised walks, visits and workshops, which encourage critical and creative learning and often respond to curriculum requirements, are planned on request and in collaboration with educational institutions. Please connect for further details.

The only thing required today is the practice status (e.g. full/limited/dnp). Friday is the day they say if they are probable, questionable, doubtful, or out.
He doesn't and he won't, until tomorrow when he has to.
Staying mum speaks volumes me thinks.Hide replies
I just talked to AR and he said he's playing this Sunday but he said not to tell anyone!
Rogers arm is just a way to keep the reporters from griling Mike on whats being done to fix the defense.Hide replies
I wasn't aware that Rodger's arm was injured...
It isn't, but it is still causing him a great deal of pain.
aaron as HC of the GBP it is my duty to educate you: The arm is attached to the shoulder which is attached to the clavicle. Injured clavicle means you cant throw and you throw with the arm. Please try again.
His arm didn't give him pain. It was his shoulder. Mr. Knowitall doesn't know much of anything in my opinion.
Thanks for the anatomy lesson though.
Of coarse, BigRAY , realized he never got that whole ....left/right thing.
I would take this kind of "will-he, won't-he" any day, compared with Drama Boy's act in 2008.Hide replies
As the trolls say when answering themselves with another ID.
"thanks for keeping it real man"..................LMFAO
Said the king of trolls.
Coming from you that really means something..................NOT
Your one of the biggest trolls to ever try to disgrace the packers on the the JS blog.
Just goes to show how warped you are to call someone that roots for the Pack a troll..............there is help for you you seek it.
if you seek it I meant to say.
You meant to write, not say.
And the pivot man weighs in.
And the pivot man weighs in.
Sports talk radio in Dallas (The Ticket) believes the Packers know they'll play Rodgers on Sunday....because the Cowboys def won't hit him anyway (as demonstrated by the Bears game this past Monday). Ha!Hide replies
Good one! lol
Dallas has the worst defense in the NFL, so whatever QB Green Bay plays should be pretty safe.
Of course, Green Bay doesn't have a very good offensive line either so that evens up the risk factor.
~ This is all a conspiracy against the fans ~

Skip to comments.Obama economic plan aims for 2.5M new jobs by 2011
Posted on 11/22/2008 7:12:10 AM PST by Red in Blue PA
WASHINGTON President-elect Barack Obama promoted an economic plan Saturday he said would create 2.5 million jobs by rebuilding roads and bridges and modernizing schools while developing alternative energy sources and more efficient cars.
"These aren't just steps to pull ourselves out of this immediate crisis. These are the long-term investments in our economic future that have been ignored for far too long," Obama said in the weekly Democratic radio address.
The goal is to it quickly through Congress, with help from both parties, after Obama takes office Jan. 20. The plan, which envisions those new jobs by January 2011, is "big enough to meet the challenges we face," he said.
Obama noted the growing evidence the country is "facing an economic crisis of historic proportions" and said he was pleased Congress passed an extension of unemployment benefits this past week. But, he added, `We must do more to put people back to work and get our economy moving again."

Wonderful ... everybody grab a shovel cause O-child gonna recreate the WPA. He wants an universal college education but the jobs he proposes are heavy infrastructure labor? And probably paid for by taxing the high tech stuff out of existence, at least within the United States.
IF BO implements any aspect of his tax the rich plan, there will be ZERO net, new jobs by 2011!!!!
...and 15 million lost...
Presidents do not create jobs....companies and opportunites do. Is the "O" willing to get out of the way so this can happen?
Is that a rhetorical question?
This has been tried before.
Until I read this article, I was not aware there was such a crying need for laborers to build "wind farms and solar panels."
I just read that this year we lost 1.2 million jobs in 2008 so far. So, he'll recover half those jobs once this downturn cycle is over.
...and failed.
The unions might take issue with his WPA, CCC plans. That is unless the USA pays union wages and the unions get a cut.
Such a tangled web.
yes, and if people and companies are given generous tax cuts they will do the work themselves of selling wonderfull new electric and other type cars. Aptera and Pheonix motor cars already are and many others will be too. And the big three are finally starting to wake up to the fact that people want low cost and better cars. They have dropped the ball due to the profit margin of selling parts and maintenance of their cars for their dealerships. Great for the dealships but bad for the consumer and now the chicken has come home to roost and the oil companies have stabbed them in the back with the recent huge spike in gas prices.
10 million years from now, there will be 100 billion dumbasses who STILL think that you can grow an economy by having the G. hire people to build those "roads and bridges." When will this go away?
Ah yes, the greatest of all job creators steps to the fore...the US Government. How reassuring for the prospects of future growth!
Just more smoke and mirrors from BO. The key word in that story is "aim".
He reminds me of my dog when she finds a rattle snake. She barks real loud, takes small jumps towards the problem but never gets close enough to actually bite the snake. She actually is warning us that a snake is around and then WE get a shovel and kill the snake.
That's what will happen with this economy and any other problems facing this nation. He will make a lot of noise and wait for someone else to fix the problems.
I am sick of this Green mantra.
When the magic alternative energy resources are built and dominant, then someone will start an agenda to stop them from damaging the environment in different ways. There is no end to this alternative energy BS. The motive is to tear down society, not to get energy from somewhere else.
The same goes for "more energy efficient cars". When these "more energy efficient cars" are built and everywhere, then we will be under attack because they are not 100% efficient (impossible).
Is a "Green Building" really "Green"? There is no such thing. By definition, the only thing "green" is nature, which is what the radical green movement wants. They want an absence of man.
What happened to the 5 million new jobs he promised in March 2008?
Any job that Comrade Zerobama would "create" would be strictly TAXPAYER FUNDED. Remember that the free market and its natural job creation are UNDER ATTACK by these socialists. The government will be GOD and will create and control everything.....no joke!!! (/s)
Put Harry Ried out of a job...I like to see that old commie practice what he preaches. Pelosi can standby in the sweltering heat to lash him if he doesn't perform.
I think you have to smoke their green to get the full meaning of it.
As long as the union bosses get their cut of the pie they don't give a sh@t. Did you ever notice when a strike is called those at the top lose nothing?
We've had it.
laborers to build HUMMERS and Escalades TOO !!!!
I was always under the impression that everytime gov't hires someone, the public sector looses money.
HOPE AND CHANGE!!! HOPE AND CHANGE!!! Oh, wait. It's just a rehashed version of FDR's New Deal. I can't wait to see how this turns out. /s
Is he going to pull them out of his a$$.
Sounds like Russia/Cuba by making gummit work projects. Surprise.
Pray for W and Our Troops
No thanks...we can do A LOT better than that, and starting in 2010, we will turn things around so we can turn the economy, the energy sector, manufacturing, agriculture, etc., etc. loose again in a free market.
Don't forget, those "millions" of jobs building "energy efficient" cars, will more than likely be robots that the industry has been forced to develop because of the extremely high cost of labor, thanks to the Unions.
Japan solved it's labor shortage this way, and American industry will do the same to remain competitive. As far as the pipe dream of solving the economic crisis by rebuilding schools, bridges roads, etc, those jobs now require years of professional trade experience. General laborers (Pick & shovel gangs) have been replaced by heavy equipment.
Add the incredible cost of his environmental overkill, "Crap & Trade" scam and the building materials industry will have to charge the tax payers double for the same materials & services.
BUT, it all sounds so GOOD! Just like his pie-in-the-sky speeches that his Cult following chanted repeatedly. WE WANT PIE....WE WANT PIE!....... They are going to get just that!
A five year plan. Stalin loved those.
Marxists do not want to create jobs, they want to move ciphers around the board. They want to arrange the board. It did not matter to Stalin how many kulaks he killed in order to achieve collectivization of agriculture, it did not matter how many peasants Mao Zedong had to starve to death in order to divert money for the production of atomic bombs and missiles. The left does not want any jobs for Cowboys it wants spots for drones.
In their insatiable quest to play God, leftists are drawn to governing because it is the arena which permits them to do just that, to play God. Turning loose the entrepreneurial spirit of the citizenry is anathema to them because it takes them out of the game, in fact, it takes away the game entirely. That will never do.
Ultimately, Obama is driven in this direction by the demons which control him.
If we drilled for oil all our cars would be low cost. Is he going to build the Nuclear plants to charge those wonderful golf carts? Oh yeah, only the Inner Circle gets a car.
Pray for W and Our Troops
I don't think smoking green weed has anything to do with it.
They are mentally ill, insane to be exact.
He will be hiring millions to spy on the dissenters. Openings for Gestapo agents and grunts to build the camps. Meanwhile, his cohorts will continue with their plans to turn America into a third-world country where they rule.
IOW, jobs American's wont do. So who ,I wonder will do these jobs ;0)
Roads and bridges? But I thought cars and oil were destroying our planet!
We need workers to build bike paths and light rail.
and more runways for the central planners to oversee our work.
Jeff, I admire your positive outlook. However, I see it as not possible in 2010, because they plan on flooding the electorate with newly ordained Democrats from Mexico.
They plan on granting amnesty to all those Illegals already here, (30 million) just by requiring them to register, pay a few hundred dollar fine, learn a few words in English and throw the doors wide open at the border. All they need do in the future is, register, pay a fee, have family already here or have a medical or economic crisis to get citizenship.
Of course, they will get Universal National Health Care immediately. And they will come in a wave like the Indonesian Disaster.
If I knew the country was going into the toilet, I'd be aiming for 50 million new jobs to replace the 50 million that are going to be lost.
It's already in place. See Davis Bacon Act.
Oh yeah, Obama is a Messiah for the US economy.
Just ask Wall Street, which Obama has worked his magic on.
15 years ago I moved from South Carolina to Georgia. There was a road project going on in Augusta on I20, it is still going on!!! 15 YEARS in the same exact spot! Everytime I go back to SC and drive through the mess I comment to my husband, can you say PORK?
Maybe he will seize some private and corporate-owned farms and convert them to collective farms. That really worked well for the Soviets—millions of people starved from the resulting famines.
And of course the Obamunists wouldn't have the heart to make these jobs only temporary....
You're late. They already have.
"Just more smoke and mirrors from BO. The key word in that story is aim.
He reminds me of my dog when she finds a rattle snake. She barks real loud, takes small jumps towards the problem but never gets close enough to actually bite the snake. She actually is warning us that a snake is around and then WE get a shovel and kill the snake.
Thats what will happen with this economy and any other problems facing this nation. He will make a lot of noise and wait for someone else to fix the problems."
Good analogy. Enjoyed reading this.
A prime example.
Yes, can't you see large pictures of Obama at all the work sites? His jaw jutting out and his head tilted back? And those workers will all be so enthusiastic and productive about their manual labor position as some Union organizer oversees their work.
There will also be the Obama Civilian Security Force ever present.

Italian Jobless Rate Returned to All-Time High in August
Italy's unemployment rate rose more than forecast in August, returning to an all-time high reached in May as companies remained concerned that the economy may not exit soon from its longest recession since World War II.
Joblessness increased to 12.2 percent from a revised 12.1 percent in July, the Rome-based national statistics office Istat said in a preliminary report today. The August rate was higher than the 12.1 percent median of five estimates in a Bloomberg survey. In May the rate reached the highest since the data series began in the first quarter of 1977.
Concerns about the outlook for employment in Italy rose last month as Spain's Telefonica SA tightened its grip on Telecom Italia SpA and the carrier Alitalia SpA's crisis deepened, potentially souring Air France-KLM Group's appetite to lift its stake in the company. In both cases, Italian labor leaders expressed worries that the foreign investors may eliminate jobs to cut costs.
The unemployment rate for people between the ages of 15 and 24 rose to a historic high of 40.1 percent from 39.7 percent, Istat said today.
Italian Industrial production unexpectedly dropped in July, contradicting forecasts and expectations that the two-year long recession will come to an end in the second half of 2013.
Prime Minister Enrico Letta's government projects the unemployment rate to rise to 12.4 percent next year, the Treasury said in a report last month. That matches a forecast in a Sept. 27 report by the International Monetary Fund.
Joblessness unexpectedly increased also in Germany, a sign of an uneven recovery in the euro region's biggest economy. In September the adjusted unemployment rate increased to 6.9 percent from 6.8 percent in the previous month, according to a report published today by the Nuremberg-based Federal Labor Agency.

This group is intended as a networking site for PULSE community members from the US Southwest and Hawaii. Please add ideas for regional conferences, let your regional colleagues know about your PULSE-related activities, etc. If you would like to be contacted in the future in order to get involved in specific initiatives, please fill out the recruitment form. If you know of someone who isn't yet a member of this group, please feel free to invite them.
Location: Southwestern United States
Members: 63
Latest Activity: Jun 14
Notes of interest to Southwest PULSErs:
1. The PULSE website has undergone considerable revamping, with the intent of making it more useful to PULSE Community Members and more attractive to prospective PULSE members.
2. A grant has recently been been submitted that, if funded, will permit the planning and delivery of a Southern California PULSE Institute for 30 institutions. There will be more details at our next Zoom meeting. Please be on the lookout for an email announcing this meeting.

National Science Foundation funded, Bio-Link National Center (DUE 1400721), AC2 Bio-Link Regional Center (DUE 1507521) and Madison Area Technical College (DUE 1501553) are hosted two stem cell workshops in July --participants will receive $500 for travel and participation. Check out the Bio-Link site (www.bio-link.org) to learn more about this opportunity!
@Jean Maines - I've moved your query to a discussion on this page, where threaded responses are easier to follow, OK?
Hi Brian and David; great to hear from you, and to have your support!
Is there anything that you could suggest as a way to pull in more of the PULSE community in the Southwest? Would a reminder of the resources available (Ambassador Visits, On-lineWorkshops and the ToolKit) be useful? We are planning a SW PULSE Workshop for next Spring, but that is a long way away (and we will have to get funding).
Any ideas are welcome!
I will be glad to help in any way and promote our activities through the Society for College Science Teachers and the National Association of Biology Teachers.
I look forward to helping out in any way I can!
Hi everyone! I am very excited that the Southwest group is now a reality. After a brief 2 days to catch up on sleep I am now re-energized, and ready to think about all that we can do in our region.

Review: Last Man Standing, Fairfax Studio
- From: Herald Sun
- May 10, 2013
ANYONE harbouring doubts about whether Debra Byrne has still got it will be proved wrong in this show.
Her voice is not in fine form, it's in fabulous form as she provides the soulful centrepiece to a well-mounted, well-paced, admirably ambitious bio-musical about the rocky road of legendary rock 'n' roller Jerry Lee Lewis.
A Southern piano-assaulting hell-raiser whose popularity rivalled Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry, Lewis was also victim of his own demons.
Entwined with his fiery musical career were drugs, drink, womanising and, most damaging of all, marriage to Myra Gale Brown, his 13-year-old cousin.
All this and more is covered in a breezy, energetic, enjoyable show that incorporates a swag of Lewis hits, some great gospel numbers and, more awkwardly, other big songs of the period.
Largely unrelated to the story, they appear to have been included for the heck of it. There is a lack of hillbilly and blues, which helped form Lewis's music.
Delivering much of the libretto with co-star and local rock veteran Nick Barker, Byrne gives splendid voice to the early, and lasting, influence on Lewis's formative years of gospel singer Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
These spiritual moments not only fill the room with feeling, they make you appreciate that the key to gospel singing is that it can't be done half-heartedly.
While Byrne commanded the venue with River Deep Mountain High, she hit her high with Bob Dylan's The Times They Are a Changin'. Accompanied by nothing but a lone drum beat, it was the show's most beautiful moment.
Pianist Dannie Bourne paid tribute to Lewis's fiery style and was in fine voice singing the Lewis hits. But why he wore a business suit rather than something more Jerry Lee-like is a wardrobe point worth addressing.
The show's lighting and smoke haze created a suitably intimate ambience, but the direction and staging could do with some work. There were too many times when you became conscious of a half-empty stage. It could do with a couple of bobby soxers to come out bust a few moves in the style of the era.
That quibble aside, Last Man Standing is a solidly entertaining tribute to a troublesome rock and roll maverick. It doesn't quite raise the roof, but Byrne's powerful vocals do manage to shake the place and fill it with soul.
Directed by Simon Myers, Libretto by Jim McPherson
Fairfax Studio, Arts Centre Melbourne, until May 19

I want use GXT at Netbeans with GWT
I added the GXT jar file to the typically Library section but in the deployment a error says the classpath dont know something about GXT. Changes at the gmx.xml and the project classpath dont make a difference. Can any one help me? (I hope the english is okay )
2 Jun 2008 2:10 PM #2
Can you copy/paste any error messages or screenshots? Also, try and follow this guide http://extjs.com/gxt/helpcenter (even though it targets eclipse) and ensure you are doing the equivalent in Netbeans.
Without more information, is hard to know what is wrong - typcially though, classpath issues are common.
2 Jun 2008 10:15 PM #3
It works more or less after i added this line
<inherits name="com.google.gwt.user.User"/>
in my gwt module. Now the following error occurs
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
at java.util.Arrays.copyOf(Arrays.java:2882)

at java.io.StringWriter.write(StringWriter.java:95)
at java.io.PrintWriter.write(PrintWriter.java:412)
i tried -Xmx256m but it doesnt change something..
My module looks like the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<inherits name="com.google.gwt.user.User"/>
<inherits name='com.extjs.gxt.ui.GXT'/>
<entry-point class="GameEngine.client.MainModuleEntryPoint"/>

<source path="System"/>
<source path="com\extjs\gxt\ui\client\widget\table"/>
Without the inherits line for gxt the follwing error occurs:
[ERROR] Errors in 'file:.../client/MainModuleEntryPoint.java'
[ERROR] Line 37: No source code is available for type com.extjs.gxt.ui.client.widget.table.Table<S>; did you forget to inherit a required module?
[ERROR] Line 39: No source code is available for type com.extjs.gxt.ui.client.widget.table.TableItem; did you forget to inherit a required module?
2 Jun 2008 10:23 PM #4
my gwt xml looks like this...
<module> <inherits name='com.extjs.gxt.ui.GXT'/> <entry-point class="com.mycompany.gxt.client.Test"/> </module>
I also need to add -Xmx256M to my VM arguments when launching the java application.
If you need to do more then I'm unsure how to help with Netbeans, other than to say switch to eclipse and try that?
2 Jun 2008 10:36 PM #5
I dont wanna test gxt i want add gxt to my gwt project and use in that
2 Jun 2008 11:09 PM #6
I can't possibly understand how your existing GWT application is working inside your GWT project. I can only give you advice on how to get a ExtGWT (GXT) application working, using a normal GWT project (which is based on eclipse as google does itself).
The example I provided is a GWT application, and only needs to inherit com.extjs.gxt.ui.GXT as it then inherits all the GWT stuff to make GWT apps work.
3 Jun 2008 12:36 AM #7
So do u mean i have to create a second gwt.xml file an inherits this in my first gwt.xml file?
How then the inherit have be to written?
The error with the memory heap occurs also at -Xmx1024M
Is the GWT already inside GXT so that i only need to use the GXT library?
3 Jun 2008 2:16 AM #8
When using GWT in NetBeans, you will also have to set Heap Space for your GWT Compiler in your build-gwt.xml.
You can find it if you change to "Files" view and open the "nbproject" folder of your project.
build-gwt.xml should look like this:
<target name="-post-compile">
<!-- You can override this property in the 'gwt.properties' file -->
<property name="gwt.compiler.output.style" value="OBFUSCATED"/>
<property name="gwt.compiler.logLevel" value="WARN"/>
<java classpath="${javac.classpath}:${src.dir}" failonerror="true"
classname="com.google.gwt.dev.GWTCompiler" fork="true" maxmemory = "512M">
<arg value="-out"/>
<arg path="${build.web.dir}/"/>
3 Jun 2008 2:19 AM #9
Note that you will have to add maxmemory attribute everytime you start Netbeans...

I have found that some of the standard social media plugins add widgets to only home pages, not individual post pages, when using the webcomic plugin and inkblot theme. This is despite selection of options to show on every sort of page and to 'show on posts'. For instance, ShareThis and Sociable show this problem. I wonder if webcomic is interfering with these plugins somehow. Other social media plugins such as DiggDigg and Lockerz do not- they add widgets to all pages. Can anyone give advice? I am currently using Lockerz but I'd rather use ShareThis or Sociable as they seem slicker.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Man faces decades in jail for BB gun assaultBy Brent Curtis
staff writer | March 19,2014A Rutland man faces up to 35 years in jail for an alleged assault and robbery with a BB gun.
Roosevelt M. Norris, 44, pleaded innocent Tuesday to felony charges of assault and robbery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and aggravated assault with a weapon.
When Norris public defender Nelson Floyd argued that setting bail at $75,000 was too high for an offense involving a BB gun, Judge Theresa DiMauro said she disagreed.
Its still capable of causing serious bodily injury if shot in the eye, the judge said.
According to an affidavit filed by Rutland City Police Detective Samson Delpha, Norris wouldnt have had to be much of a marksman to hit such a vulnerable target.
During the alleged assault on Monday afternoon, Norris allegedly pressed the muzzle into 32-year-old Robert Gradys eye while threatening to shoot him in the eye and the ear.
Grady told police that he was at his 21 Church St. apartment sometime after 5 p.m. Monday when Norris, who Grady said he knows by the names B and Maserati, knocked on his door.
He said he answered his door to find Norris pointing a gun at him that looked like a Glock handgun. Grady said Norris shot him with pellets while charging him. Grady told police he fell to the ground, and Norris got on top of him, striking him in the head and ribs with the butt of the gun.
While on top of Grady, Norris allegedly demanded to know Where is the (expletive) phone?
Grady said he was in fear for his life when he handed over his cell phone, a credit card and a jewelry box in the apartment.
Police say Grady was taken to Rutland Regional Medical Center where it took five staples to close a wound to his head.
Norris left the apartment but was arrested soon after in Castleton at the Trak Inn. Police say he was found with a carbon dioxide-powered BB gun along with Gradys phone, the credit card and a jewelry box.

It's a Battlefield (1934)
by Graham Greene
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Back cover description quite good, but found this very difficult to get into and unengaging. Gave up around page 50 (quarter of the way through)
On a battlefield each small group of soldiers fights its little individual war, ignorant of the action and its meaning along miles of battlefront. Life, says Graham Greene, is like that. To prove it, he writes in a cinematographic style that shoots a keen, swift-moving camera eye from one point to another round the circle of his drama. In "Orient Express" he used the same method, flashing light on lives in widely differing spheres which were somehow connected in a common story. In "It's a Battlefield" he has developed this method still further.

on December 20, 2012 - 12:01 AM
City planning officials are taking their proposed new zoning Green Code on the road again this week, presenting it to businesses, property owners, developers and others, in at least three different meetings, in advance of releasing it to the public for comment next month.
At a forum Wednesday at the Buffalo Place offices, senior city planner John M. Fell and a consultant hired by the city laid out specifics of the first major revision to Buffalo's zoning code in over 60 years.
Similar meetings were being planned for Wednesday evening and this morning, with participants specifically invited to participate. After their comments are incorporated into the working version, a public draft will be released in late January. Already, more than 3,000 people have been involved in the process.
"It's critical that we get the development community, the people who build the buildings, in on this," said Brendan Mehaffy, executive director of the city's Office of Strategic Planning.
The proposed new code, which the Common Council will consider for adoption in March, is intended to bring a modern approach to zoning and economic development by encouraging and reinforcing mixed-use and walkable communities throughout the city. It's part of a larger project initiated by Mayor Byron W. Brown in 2010 that also includes the first citywide land-use plan in 30 years. A six-month grace period will follow adoption of the code.
"You're going to find this code a lot more liberal than your current code," Leslie S. Pollock, principal consultant at Camiros, the Chicago-based consulting firm that is working with the city, told participants at the Buffalo Place forum. "You'll find the flexibilities in this code will work to your benefit."
But the plan's Achilles' heel may be the subject of parking, which is already controversial in Buffalo because of stark differences of opinion on its pricing and availability in the city.
The new code does not currently allow new freestanding parking structures or lots in the downtown core, but encourages parking to be linked to other developments, such as retail or office buildings. Critics said that could reduce opportunities for shared parking and instead create too many private lots that aren't fully used.
Planners acknowledged there could be problems. "We realize that's an issue, and we will be addressing that," Fell said. "That's why we're doing these working groups."
More than two and a half years in the making, the code sets new rules on the "form, use and character of development in Buffalo" and "combines zoning, subdivision and public realm standards" into one easy-to-use document, according to a two-page summary sheet.
The code contains about 13 articles, dealing with variations between different neighborhood or district zones in the city and the types of buildings permitted in each zone. It also covers specific overall requirements for landscaping, building frontage, fences and walls, parking, signs, outdoor lighting, public safety, thoroughfares, and access for vehicles, bikes and pedestrians. Storm water management is included. And it addresses administration of the code, enforcement of the rules and the process for appeals.
Section 4 alone, which deals with the Neighborhood Zones and was the focus of Wednesday's gathering, is 68 pages. "It's hard to be brief about zoning," Pollock joked.
Moreover, the code � known as a Unified Development Ordinance � deals not only with private development but also public investment into signs, parks and highways.
But state and federal developments are exempt, since their authority supersedes the city. "The usual policy is to plead," Pollock said. "The federal government can do what it wants."
Perhaps most importantly, the planners said the code needs to be a "living document" that can be amended when appropriate, instead of just granting variances. "We've passed out variances like Halloween candy in the past 50 years, so we'll have to change the culture," said Chris Hawley, a city urban planner.?

My 6 month old was staring at me eating roasted red pepper humus and so I put a tiny tiny bit on her lip, and she LOVED it! This was her first food!!!! I know, I totally broke all the rules. I won't do it again, at least not until I introduce her to maybe pureed veggies first, but I am amazed! She was trying to such it off her lip to the back of her mouth. I know there are all these rules to introducing foods to your baby but I just had an instinct- and I was right! Spicy red pepper humus- she has sophisticated tasts already! Don't worry, it was such a tiny amount that it won't hurt coming out- ha ha.
Does this make me a bad mom?
how is this breaking the rules?
it's neat that your daughter likes it! there are a small handful of things my daughter used to like that she doesn't anymore, spicy foods being one of them. but i've never NOT given my child something just because.
just keep an eye on her for any reaction. it's unlikely the first time, but wait a couple more days before introducing her to a new food and enjoy! :-)
Be adaptable.
lol my 6 month old is eating scrambled eggs and pancakes (not in the same meal) he also eats cake and peeps. i dont feel bad at all about it. i mean hes been eating solids since he was 2 months ( cereal first and then i added fruits to it and then 1/2 a month later i introduced him to veggies and then 2 months after that he started on meats)
i know that i may get bashed for this but he loves it and i dont feed him anything that will hurt him. i just feel bad when im eating in front of him and he starts crying cause he is hungery. and wants what mommy and daddy are having. i honestly think that it has made him stronger. my parents did the same thing for me and im alive and well. and i was ahead in alot of things. i was running at 9 months and such as that. i dont think that you did anything wrong :) i just wouldnt feed her spicy stuff just yet lol
im deleting this profile. i have another one under Carrie Bekah :) please add me :)
I thought it was breaking the rules because it has multiple ingredients in it (in this case, garbanzo beans, olive oil, garlic, red pepper, etc). That when you introduce a food, you introduce one ingredient at a time.
yes you're right. i wasn't even thinking about that...
but.. :) the chances of anything happening are pretty slim :) i still think it's neat that your 6 month old likes roasted bell pepper hummus lol
Be adaptable.
If they have an allergic reaction, does it happen right away? What should I look for?
hives, breathing issues, throwing up. those are the biggies, i'm sure other moms will have more suggestions on things to look for.
i'm very fortunate that to date my daughter has had no allergies (aside from whey protein before she turned 1).
Be adaptable.
The allergies should show up the second time they eat it. They have to have antibodies build up from the first feeding. I see no problem. Most of the things in hummus you aren't going to introduce one at a time anyway.....like olive oil and garlic. Plus, if you do not have food allergies in your family, you do not need to be as cautious.
I read this interesting article on how America now introduces such bland food little by little may exactly do more to spur on food allergies than to just let them eat what you eat, like they tend to do in other countries, where babies are given rich sometimes spicey foods. It was interesting, but I cannot remember the name of it. It may have come from the MSNBC website.
Just wanted to say . ..
I don't think very many parents abide by the "introduce one food, wait a few days, introduce another of the same color (ie green beans then peas) and then after all those are introduced, start with another color (yams and carrots)" so on and so forth. Also with the "veggies, then fruits, then meat" thing. I know I didn't, oops.
Once babies start watching you eat your food from plate-to-mouth it typically signifies they're ready to start eating different and/or solid foods. Each time I've been eating something and I saw one of my son's reaching out for it or smacking their lips I've given them some. Like a pp said, food allergies typically happen instantly to within a half-hour and include hives, breathing problems, and vomiting.
If you're interested in giving your baby food with flavor, consider making your own baby food.
Peruse www.wholesomebabyfood.com It is a wealth of information for feeding an infant through toddler. You're food will be tastier, more colorful, & offer more texture. We can add spices (cinnamon) & herbs (basil, oregano).
I didn't give bell pepper as a first food. But, both of my babies love bell pepper.
When you described the humous as "spicey", how spicey? Some babies like hot spicey. But it is very bad for their tummies.
As long as she likes it and it doesnt upset her tummy than good for you, and her! We gave my daughter all kinds of food starting at around 5 months, basically skipping the baby food, she wasnt a big fan and prefered to eat what me and my husband were eating.She just turned 1 and will litterally eat anything.
I think the more exposure to different flavors the better. Good luck and you are not a bad mom!

Update to Skype for Linux
An update for the proprietary Skype VoIP client resolves video image display issues among other problems.
Some Linux users saw nothing but blank screens on the first beta version of Skype for Linux, although their webcam drivers worked. In a blog entry Ryan Hunt, who is the project manager responsible for development of the Linux client, explains that Skype now has the ability to let X11 draw the window (non-accelerated X11 overlay output), although X11 video output will not let users scale the image to full-screen mode.
The X11 feature helps users on systems without Xv support. Xv is the X Window system video extension. It seems that Skype needs multiple Xv ports to display its own window and one for the other subscriber. The "xvinfo" command outputs the number of ports used on a system.
Besides video output bugfixes, Skype 2.0 also outputs more debugging information at the console. This will help more technically oriented users to troubleshoot errors, while at the same time helping Skype's vendor discover where users are experiencing difficulty.
In addition to this there have been several minor bugfixes, as listed in the release notes on the Skype website. The bugfixes mainly relate to changes to the user interface for the VoIP client.

By Giselle BodinFebruary 27, 2009
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. --In a room full of employees of different races, ages, and backgrounds, with men and women working in a variety of career positions, knowledge was shared and the need for cultural recognition stressed to bring the United States Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command (USASMDC/ARSTRAT) together during the month of February for African American history month.
On Thursday, Feb. 12, USASMDC/ARSTRAT employees gathered to listen to speaker Robert "Bob" Harrison, the Madison County Commissioner for District Six in Huntsville. Overall, nearly 70 attendees gathered to recognize the importance of African American history through the theme of "The Quest for Black Citizenship."
Kicking off the program was Col. Cheryl Lewis, the USASMDC/ARSTRAT staff judge advocate. Lewis began by discussing the founding of African American week in February of 1926 by Dr. Carter Woodson, a famous African-American historian. Lewis stressed that while the theme centered on black citizenship in America, the program was made to educate all people.
"It's important to raise awareness and inform all people, not just black people, on cultural differences, on learning and celebrating different cultures," said Lewis.
Following Lewis, Mary Peoples, the USASMDC/ARSTRAT Black Employment program manager, spoke, thanking everyone-particularly members of the Senior Executive Service-for attending the event. She then introduced Commissioner Harrison as the guest speaker for the day.
Commissioner Harrison, a native of Little Rock, Ark., was elected Madison County Commissioner for District Six in November 2004 and was re-elected in June 2008. His district represents approximately 48,000 people residing in the northern section of Huntsville. He is the second African American Commissioner elected into this position since a reapportionment lawsuit was filed in 1988. As commissioner, he supervises six departments and more than 900 employees, with responsibility for millions of dollars of county equipment, land, and buildings.
Harrison has worked in a variety of professions-a chemist, an engineer, an entrepreneur in engineering consulting, owner of a vehicle dealership, and an entrepreneur in real estate. He has been the recipient of numerous awards and achievements throughout his life and during his time in Huntsville. He has served as an advocate for education, creating community services and organizations; has developed programs to advance harvest and produce capabilities; and is an active and dedicated member of his local church. With his various background and diverse experiences as an African American commissioner in Huntsville, Harrison provided a wealth of insight to SMDC/ARSTRAT employees as a speaker at this event.
"This is a great opportunity to reflect on the past and examine the present of where we are as African American people," said Harrison. "We have a past of trials, tribulations, and testimonies of triumph. Now we are armed with hope and continue to press for equality."
Harrison also spoke about the great past of Woodson and other dedicated leaders who shared a strong vision.
"It's not enough to have vision, framed by inspiration and filled by conviction. It takes any means to fill and a sense of determination over naysayers," Harrison declared. "There is a need for a completion of the vision, a need to accomplish things others have not."
Harrison reminded attendees about the historical path of African Americans, from slavery to the Civil War, emancipation to lynching, and through the Reconstruction period. He pointed out, however, that the journey was not finished.
"The greatest bound of hope has come during American economic shakiness, with the election of an African American man [as president]," said Harrison. He spoke of ensuring a seat at the table of opportunity and remembering to not let complaints overshadow opportunities.
Harrison closed saying that "there are victories still left to win and a potential of hope filled with promises yet to come."
After Harrison's speech, Melvin Kelly, the command's Equal Employment Opportunity officer, thanked Harrison and presented him with a plaque of appreciation. He encouraged attendees to continue to build their knowledge and awareness through programs like this.
"It is important to respect one another by knowing more about each other," Kelly said. "Understanding cultural backgrounds helps us all do our jobs better together."

Hi, I'm using the custom home page and would like to make the header on the home page different than the other pages. Also, I don't see the slider on the home page, even though I've set up the Featured post with a featured category. Here's the URL: http://aboutjsjgailandcarol.com/KeyElementsWP/key-elements-for-health/
Thank you.

Hey, it's National Catfish Day! So designated in 1987 by President Reagan, the day celebrates "the value of the farm-raised catfish." We're pretty good at missing the point entirely, so we're gonna turn Clip Reel over to a celebration of the most famous catfish in the world of athletics, Jim Hunter. We may slip a few clips from Big Fish in, though. We love Billy Crudup.
Catfish Hunter's Wiki.
His Baseball Reference page.
Info on him from Retrosheet.
His obituary. Sad.
The box score of his perfect game in 1968.
His Hall of Fame profile.
Once said about Reggie Jackson, "He'd give you the shirt off his back, then call a press conference to announce he did it." Ha!
The Bob Dylan song "Catfish" is in his honor.
Referenced in Bad News Bears: "Who'd ya think you are, Catfish Hunter?"
Nice video tribute.
Some guy played out a Yankees vs. White Sox game from the 1970s on PS2 and put it on YouTube. Awesome.
Notes from Catfish's funeral and the baseball luminaries in attendance.
Someone made a MySpace for Catfish.
Kinky Friedman wrote a song called "Catfish" too.
Big Tom White sang a song called "The Catfish Kid (The Ballad of Jim Hunter)" as well.
"My brothers taught me to throw strikes, and thanks to that I gave up 379 home runs in the big leagues."
He's the last AL pitcher to win 20 games for five consecutive seasons (and the fourth all-time).
He was on five World Series champions (three with Oakland, two with New York).
A great collection of his soundbites.
The radio call of his perfect game is here (sadly, on his ALS - or Lou Gehrig's Disease - page).
There's a plaque in his hometown of Herford, NC honoring him.
Here's that Big Fish clip we promised you.

We visited industries close to the "small" city of Tengzhou in the Shandong Province of China. As far as I know this large grand hotel is Government owned. The staff were very helpful. The food were good. Some areas like my bathroom was in need of a bit of TLC.
